l'M PLEASED TO REPORT that 20 16 was one of SM UD 's best years ever.

We exceeded ou r f inancial targets whi le continuing to deliver electricity at the lowest rates of any large Ca lifornia utility.

But what gives me the most sa t isfaction - and optimism - is t hat we took a number of steps in 2016 t o ensure SMUD's long -term fina ncial vita lity and viabi lity even in the face of a rapid ly chang in g energy la ndscape. We fina lized a five-yea r strategic plan that provides the founda t ion and directi on SMUD needs to best serve o ur customers now and into the future.

The strateg ic plan recognizes that SMU D wi ll ope rate under a d ifferen t business mode l by 2020. Th e p lan ta kes into acco unt the changes transforming our ind ustry - inc reasingly sophistica t ed customer expectations, g reater dependence on te chnology, third parties ente ring our market, the im portance of big dat a and analytics, and the need to transi ti on to a low- carbon future.

continued A DYNAMIC FUTURE SMUD ANNUAL REPORT 2016 J Empowering

cro By setti ng prio rities and metrics for t he next five yea rs, and by acknowledging t hat our electric sales are expected to stay flat or even decline in the near future, SMUD is well positioned to make the tough decisions about where to commit our labor and financial resources.

First and foremost, we need to get the basics right. Safety, great reliability and excellent customer service are the minimum expectations. To be successful in the future, we must step up our game. This entails reviewing and reducing our costs of delivering high-quality serv ices, bui lding and maintaining a highly skilled wo rkfo rce, and st rengthe ning SMUD's already-strong co nn ections to our customers and community. It also means making smart investments in technologies that allow us to operate more efficiently, provide better information and tools for our customers, and modernize the electric grid .

This is not to minimize SMUD 's accomplishments in 2016.

Net income for the year was $195 million - about $97 million higher than planned . Snow returned to our Upper American River Project, enabling SMUD to remove the hydro surcharge that was added to customers' b ill s due to the lengthy drought. The abundant snowfall w ill also all ow SMUD to rebu ild the hydro rate st abilizat ion fund t hat was depleted through several dry winters .

The opening of a 10.88 megawatt solar plant on SMUD's Rancho Seco property enabled us to create a Commercial SolarShares'" program that meets the sustainability needs of the Sacramento Kings and the Ca lifornia Department of General Services in a cost-effective manner. We rolled out new on line tools for our residential and business customers to help them manage their electricity usage and save money.

Once again demonstrating their com m itment t o making th is a stro nger comm un ity, SMUD employees raised a record $480,000 in o ur Comb in ed Charities campaign and volunteered 15,000 hours0 days <br />0 hours <br />0 weeks <br />0 months <br /> in the community. Our safety record improved greatly in 2016 with a focus on employee, contracto r and public safety.

We 've laid out an ambitious path moving forward that establishes aggressive targets to measure our success between now and 2020. Appropriately for a community-owned utility that's look in g ahead and not backward, the theme of this year's report is " Empowering."

• 2016 and 2015, 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 contai~ed 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 fr<UJd or error.

In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal control over financial reporting relevant to the Sacramento Municipal Utility District's prepar.ation 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, 2016 and 2015, 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.

Sacramento Mu nicipal Utility District I 2 016 Annual Report MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS <unaudited)

Using this Financial Report This annual financial report for Sacramento Municipal Utility District (SMUD) consists of management's discussion and analysis and the consolidated financial statements, including notes to the financial statements.

The Consolidated Financial Statements consist of the Statements of Net Position, the Statements of Revenue, Expenses and Changes in Net Position and the Statements* of Cash Flows.

SMUD maintains its accounting records in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles 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 accounting 'for contributions of utility property in aid of construction.

Overview of the Financial Statements The following discussion and analysis of the financial performance of SMUD provides an overview of the financial activities for the years ended December 31, 2016 and 2015. This discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes, which follow this section.

The Consolidated Statements of Net Position provide information about the nature and amount of resources and obligations at a specific point in time.

The Consolidated Statements of Revenues, Expenses and Changes in Net Position report all of SMUD's revenues and expenses for the periods shown.

The Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows report the cash provided and used by operating activities, as well as other cash sources, such as investment income and debt financing, and other cash uses such as payments for debt service and capital additions.

The Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements provide additional detailed information to support the financial statements.

Nature of Operations Under provisions of California's Municipal Utility District Act, the citizens of Sacramento voted in 1923 to form their own electric utility - SMUD. The independently run community-owned utility began operations on December 31, 1946 and is not subject to regulation or oversight by the California Public Utilities Commission.

It is now the sixth largest community-owned electric utility in the nation.

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 with a population of approximately 1.4 million - most of Sacramento County and small adjoining portions of Placer and Yolo Counties. Its purpose is to provide solutions for meeting customers' electrical energy needs with a vision of empowering customers with solutions and options that increase energy efficiency, protect the environment, reduce global warming, and lower the cost to serve the region.

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 a 2.5 percent rate increase effective January 1, 2014, and an additional 2.5 percent rate increase effective January 1, 2015. The rate increases were designed to achieve a fixed charge ratio of at least 1.5. In July 2015, the Board approved another 2.5 percent rate increase for both 2016 and 2017 to allow for additional investments in technology and infrastructure. The Board also approved SMUD ANNUAL REPORT 2016 I Empowering

Sacramento Municipal Utility District I 2016 Annual Report M~NAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS (Unaudited) an optional residential Time of Use (TOU) rate that would be made available in 2016 and 2017 and declared its intent to make TOU rates the standard for residential customers in 2018. The TOU rate structure puts SMUD at the industry forefront by setting the stage to better align rates with the actual cost of electricity. Even with these increases, SMUD's rates continue to remain amongst the lowest in the state. In 2016, the average system rate was 29.2 percent below the nearest investor owned utility's average rate.

SMUD's vision is to be the trusted partner with its customers and the community, providing innovative solutions to ensure energy affordability and reliability, improve the environment, reduce our region's carbon, footprint, and enhance the vitality of our community. SMUD's business strategy focuses on serving its cust_omers in a progressive, forward looking manner, addressing current regulatory and legislative issues and potential competitive forces. This includes ensuring financial stability by establishing rates that provide acceptable cash coverage of all fixed charges on a consolidated basis, taking into consideration the impact of capital expenditures and other factors on cash flow.

Financial & Operational Highlights In 2016, SMUD continued working toward realizing the vision of meeting increased customer expectations and improving operational efficiencies. SMUD launched its 5-year strategic plan which is the blueprint for transforming the new business model and also developed the Distributed Energy Resource strategy which provides guidance for technology investments for success in the changing utility environment. SMUD continues to experience the strongest bond ratings in almost 30 years by having its credit rating confirmed at AA- by all three major rating agencies. In addition to exceeding the fixed debt service coverage goal, the refunding of a portion of ~MUD's bonds and locking in lower interest rates for additional debt to be refunded in 2018 produced significant long-term

. savings exceeding $50.0 million. SMUD was recognized by its residential customers as the top California utility for the 15th consecutive year by J.D. Power and was again ranked first among midsize utilities in the West and No. I in California for the 11th consecutive year for business customer satisfaction. In addition, SMUD ranked first nationally in the large utility category for Corporate Citizenship and Belief of Supporting Local Development.

The White House recognized SMUD for its "strong commitment to reducing greenhouse gas emissions in all of its operations, including a net long-term reduction of 90 percent from our 1990 levels by 2050." The Senate Bill (SB)-1 program was fully subscribed in 2016 which provides for 4,400 residential solar PY interconnections and 50 commercial PY systems with over 30 megawatts (MW) of customer-sited PV SMUD's reliability compliance risk management program continued to receive external recognition, earning SMUD the privilege of being part of the Western Electricity Coordinating Council's Self-Logging Program for 2016 and 2017, trusting SMUD to manage oversight internally for most compliance matters. Development of the 10.88 MW Rancho Seco Solar Project was completed and will supply renewable energy for the commercial SolarShares program. The SolarShares program supports the 20-year agreement with the Sacramento Kings and the California Department of General Services, as well as CalTrans. Electricity from SolarShares will displace about 2,000 metric tons of C02 emissions per year, which is the equivalent of taking about 400 cars off the road. Other accomplishments include hosting the first of its kind Tiny House Competition for college and university students to help cultivate the next generation of energy leaders and offering the first paid course at the state-accredited training facility, the Sacramento Power Academy.

Through its economic development program, SMUD played a key role in the attraction, retention and expansion of several companies in its service territory which led to the creation of over 1,600 jobs.

In July 2014, FERC issued a new fifty year license for the Upper American River Project (UARP), which included authority to build the Iowa Hill pumped-storage project. The UARP consists of three relatively large storage reservoirs and eight powerhouses containing eleven turbines. The UARP is one of SMUD's lowest cost power sources. In addition to providing clean hydroelectric power and operational flexibility, it provides habitat for fish and wildlife and a variety of recreational opportunities, including camping, fishing, boating, hiking, horseback Empowering I SMUD ANNUAL REPORT 2016

Sacram~nto Municipal Utility District I 2 0 16 An n ual Report MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS <unaudited) riding, mountain biking, and cross-country skiing. The combined capacity of the UARP is approximately 673 MW and represents about 15 percent of SMUD's average annual retail energy requirements. The Iowa Hill pumped-storage project was a proposed 3 unit, 400 MW variable speed powerhouse and in December 2015, after much analysis, SMUD made the decision to terminate the Iowa Hill pumped-storage project as it was determined to no longer be financially feasible (Board approved February 2016). SMUD's other power generation facilities include 3 MW of solar photovoltaic installations, the 102 MW Solano Wind Project, and five local gas-fired power plants with total capacity of approximately 1,012 MW. In addition, SMUD has several power purchase agreements to help meet its remaini,ng power requirements.

As part of the hydro relicensing process, SMUD entered into long-term contracts to provide certain services to four different government agencies - U.S . Department of Interior Bureau of Land Management, U.S. Department of Agriculture Forest Service, El Dorado County, and the Ca lifornia Department of Parks and Recreation. The aggregate present value of all contract payments of $57 .8 million was recorded as a liability at December 31, 2016.

While some effects of the long-term drought remain in California, SMUD had near normal s*nowfall and above average rainfall in its UARP watershed in 2016. A Hydro Rate Stabilization Fund (HRSF) was established to help absorb higher energy costs when hydroelectric production is down and to serve as a buffer against unexpected financial developments . In April 2015, $3.1 million was transferred from the HRSF as a result of the effect of the drought, which brought the balance of the HRSF to zero. Accordingly, SMUD applied an automatic 12-month Hydro Generation Adjustment (HOA) surcharge of 1.3 percent to its customer's electric bi lls. In April 2016,

$10.0 million was transferred to the HRSF as a result of higher precipitation and the HOA was removed. The

$10.0 million balance in the HRSF at December 31 , 2016 is an indicator of the significant impact of the rainfall and snowfall in 2016 as compared to just a year ago when the reserves were depleted as a result of the drought.

SMUD also has a long-term agreement with the Western Area Power Administration (WAPA) to purchase power generated by the Central Valley Project, a series of federal hydroelectric facilities operated by the U.S. Bureau of Reclamation. SMUD uses a Rate Stabilization Fund (RSF)' to offset any excess or deficits in WAPA energy deliveries. In 2016 and 2015 , WAPA's deliveries fell short which resulted in a $5.1 million and $12.0 million transfer from the RSF, respectively. At December 31, 2016 and 2015, the balance of the RSF was $25.2 million and $30.3 million, respectively.

Decommissioning During 2014, SMUD made significant progress toward completing the Decommissioning Plan for its Rancho Seco nuclear facility, which was shut down in 1989. The plan consists of two phases that allow SMUD to terminate its possession-only license. Phase I of the decommissioning was completed at the end of 2008. Phase II consists of a storage period for the Class B and Class C radioactive waste overseen by the existing facility staff, followed by shipment of the waste for disposal , and then complete termination of the possession-only license. SMUD also established and funded an external decommissioning trust fund as part of its assurance to the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) to pay for the cost of decommiss ioning. In September 2013, SMUD entered into a contract with the operator of a low-level radioactive waste facility located in Andrews, Texas. Shipment of the previously stored Class Band Class C radioactive waste was completed in November 2014. The disposal and shipment costs totaling over $22.0 million were funded from the decommissioning trust fund. The remaining Phase II decommissioning activities that will lead to termination of the possession-only license began during 2015 and was completed in early 2017. The Accrued Decommissioning balance in the Consolidated Statements of Net Position includes $148.0 million and $150.4 million for costs related to Rancho Seco as of December 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively.

Sac ramento Mu nicipal Utility District I 2016 Annual Report MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS (Unaudited>

As part of the Decommissioning Plan, the nuclear fuel and Greater Than Class C (GTCC) radioactive waste is being stored in a dry storage facility constructed by SMUD and licensed separately by the NRC. The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE), under the Nuclear Waste Policy Act of 1982, was responsible for permanent disposal of used nuclear fuel and GTCC radioactive waste and SMUD contracted with the DOE for removal and disposal of that waste. In 1998, SMUD filed a suit against the DOE for breach-of-contract because the DOE never provided a permanent waste disposal site. In February 2015, SMUD received $22.5 million from the U.S. Court of Claims for the period 2004 through 2009. ln June 2015, SMUD filed a suit against DOE for costs incurred from 2010 through at least June 2015.

Employee Relations and Benefits Effective January 1, 2013, SMUD began operating under a new five year memorandum of understanding (MOU) with both of its collective bargaining units, the International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers Local Union 1245 and the Organization of SMUD Employees.

SMUD participates in the California Public Employees' Retirement System (PERS), an agent multiple-employer public employee defined benefit pension plan. In 2015, SMUD implemented GASS Statement of Governmental Accounting Standards (SGAS) No. 68 "Accounting and Financial Reporting for Pensions -An Amendment ofGASB Statement No. 27" (GASS No. 68). The primary objective of GASS No. 68 is to improve accounting and financial reporting by state and local governments for pensions. Under GASB No. 68, SMUD is required to report the net pension liability (i.e., the difference between the total pension liability and the pension plan's net position or market value of assets) in its Consolidated Statements of Net Position. This standard requires shorter amortization periods for recognition of non-investment gains and losses and actuarial assumption changes, as well as for recognition of investment gains and losses. GASB No. 68 also separates financial reporting from funding requirements for pension plans. Prior to this new guidance, a liability was recognized only to the extent that contributions made to the plan were less than the actuarially calculated contributions. At December 31, 2016 and 2015, the Net Pension Liability was $499.2 million and $381.3 million, 'respecti,vely. SMUD elected to follow accounting for regulated operations under GASS SGAS No. 62 "Codification of Accounting and Financial Reporting Guidance Contained in Pre-November 30, 1989 FASB and A/CPA Pronouncements" (GASB No. 62) and recorded a regulatory asset as of December 31, 2014, in the amount of $425. 7 million to account for the net effect ofrequired prior period adjustments to re~ognize the net pension liability. Amortization of the regulatory asset will begin in 2018 over a period of 25 years.

SMUD provides postemployment healthcare benefits (OPEB) to all employees who retire from SMUD, and their dependents, in accordance with SMUD policy and MOUs. These benefits are funded through the PERS California Employer's Retiree Benefit Trust, an agent multiple-employer plan. SMUD opted to make additional $17.9 million and $22.0 million contributions to the trust in 2016 and 2015, respectively. At June 30, 2016, the plan was 59.7 percent funded and the balance of the OPEB asset at December 31, 2016 and 2015 was $127.9 million and

$96. l million, respectively.

Developments in the Energy Market New developments in the energy market at both the federa l and state level kept SMUD on high alert as it continued to monitor and address the potential impacts on the organization. Legislation at the federal level includes the Executive Order "Improving Critical Infrastructure Security" on cyber security, the Energy Policy Act of 1992 related to federal regulation of transmission access that includes FERC Order 1000, the North American Electric Reliability Corporation reliability standards, anti-market manipulation ru les, and greenhouse gas emissions. Legislation at the Empowering I SMUD ANNUAL REPORT 2016

Sacramento Municipal Utility District I 2016 Annual Report MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS <unaudited) state level includes Assembly Bill 32 Global Warming Solutions Act of 2006 (AB 32) establishing the cap-and-trade program for carbon allowances, SB-1 solar program, SB-2 IX the California Renewable Energy Resources Act that codifies the Renewable Portfolio Standards target, and SB-350 Clean Energy and Pollution Reduction Act of2015, further defined the renewable portfolio standards.

Significant Accounting Policies In accordance with GASB No. 62, the Board has taken regulatory actions for ratemaking that result in the deferral of expense and revenue recognition. These actions result in regulatory assets and liabilities. SMUD has regulatory assets that cover costs related to decommissioning, derivative financial instruments, SB- I solar investments, debt issuance costs, and pension costs. As of December 31, 2016 and 2015, total regulatory assets were $598.4 and

$623.3, respectively. SMUD also has regulatory credits that cover costs related to contributions in aid of construction, the RSF and HRSF, Energy Assistance Program Rate (EAPR) reserves, SB-1, grant revenues, and Transmission Agency of Northern California operations costs. As of December 31, 2016 and 2015, total regulatory credits were

$370.2 million and $353.8 million, respectively.

Electric Utility Plant - net makes up about 56 percent of SMUD's Total Assets and Deferred Outflow of Resources, which is similar to 2015. In 2016, SMUD capitalized approximately $173.1 million of additions to electric utility plant in the Consolidated Statements of Net Position. The additions were primarily due to distribution line work, major overhauls in the JPAs and purchases related to the replacement of bulk substations. These additions were offset by the retirement of communication equipment, fleet assets, and hardware equipment.

2015 compared to 2014 As of December 31 , 2015 , SMUD has invested approximately $3,324.0 million in electric utility plant assets and construction work in progress (CWIP) net of accumulated depreciation. Electric Utility Plant - net makes up about 56 percent of SMUD 's Total Assets and Deferred Outflow of Resources, which is about four percent less than 2014. In 2Ql5 , SMUD capitalized approximately $123 .0 million of additions to electric utility plant in the Consolidated Statements of Net Position. The additions were primarily due to distribution line work and purchases related to the replacement of bulk substations. These additions were offset by the retirement of a portion of SMU D's headquarters building in preparation for a major.renovation, some fleet assets, and some hardware equipment.

Sacramento Municipal Utility District I 2016 Annual Report MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS <unaudited) llABILITIES AND DEFERRED INFLOWS OF RESOURCES '

Long-Term Debt - net 2016 compared to 2015 In June 2016, SMUD issued $149.9 million of2016 Series D Electric Revenue Refunding Bonds. Proceeds from the 2016 Series Bonds were used to refund $125 .4 million of the outstanding 2008 Series U Bonds, and $43.6 million of outstanding,2011 Series X 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 $12.6 million, which is being amortized over the life of the refunding issue. The 2016 refunding reduced future aggregate debt service payments by $27.2 million and resulted in a total economic gain of $23.4 million, which is the difference between the present value of the old and new debt service payments.

In October and November of 2016, SMUD completed transactions to convert all of the outstanding 2008 Series J, 2008 Series K, 2012 Series L, and 2012 Series M Bonds .to direct placements, totaling $341.9 million (see Note 10).

As part of each transaction, new bonds were issued to defease the old bonds, and as a result, the reimbursement agreements with Bank of America, State Street, and US Bank were terminated. The scheduled principal payments remain unchanged unless the bonds aren't successfully remarketed at the end of the term. Accordingly, SMUD has recorded such bonds as Long-Term Debt, less amounts due within one year in the Consolidated Statements of Net Position. No additional deferred gain or loss or economic gain resulted from these transactions.

2015 compared to 2014 SMUD's long-term debt includes the component units' debt and consists of a variety of financial instruments, including i11terest rate swap-agreements, subordinated electric revenue bonds and variable rate bonds. Proceeds from the bonds provide financing for various capital improvement projects, component unit capital projects, and the prepayment of a 20 year supply of natural gas.

In June 2015, SFA issued $193.3 million of2015 Series Cosumnes Project Revenue Refunding Bonds. Proceeds from the 2015 Series Bonds and $24.8 million of available funds were used to refund $233.2 million of the outstanding 2006 Series Bonds through a legal defeasance, and accordingly, the liability for the defeased bonds was removed from Long-Term Debt in the Consolidated Statements of Net Position. The refunding resulted in the recognition of a deferred accounting loss of $4.4 million, which is being amortized over the life of the refunding issue, and a current period loss of $0.03 million which is included in Interest on Debt in the Consolidated Statements of Revenues, Expenses and Changes in Net Position. As a result of the refunding, future aggregate debt service payments are reduced by $46. 7 million and there is a total economic gain of $35.5 million.

In January and July 2015, SPA redeemed $29.9 million and the remaining $41.4 million, respectively, of the 2005 Series Bonds maturing July 2015 through July 2022, along with the accrued interest. The redemptions resulted in a current accounting loss of $0.2 million, which is included in Interest on Debt in the Consolidated Statements of Revenues, Expenses and Changes in Net Position.

Deferred Inflows of Resources 2016 compared to 2015 Total deferred inflows ofresources decreased $17.9 million due to a $22.4 million reduction in deferred pension 'inflows and $10.6 milli?n for Solano Phase 3 wind facilities. These reductions were offset by a $16.4 million increase in regulatory credits due to a $4.9 million net transfer to the rate stabilization funds as a result of higher precipitation and lower energy deliveries from WAPA, and a $10.0 million reserve for future expenditures for energy efficiency programs for EAPR customers.

2015 compared to 2014 Total deferred inflows of resources decreased $94.6 million mainly due to a

$63.8 million reduction in deferred pension inflows. Other reductions include $15.1 million in regulatory credits for transfers from the rate stabilization funds as a result of lower precipitation and lower energy deliveries from WAPA, and $10.2 million for the Solano Phase 3 wind facilities.

The 1.3 percent HGA surcharge that was implemented in 2015 was removed from customers' billings in 2016 as a result of higher precipitation.

Wholesale revenues are comprised of both surplus gas and energy sales which are part of the operational strategy in managing fuel and energy costs. In 2016, surplus gas sales were lower than 2015 by $55 .2 million due to lower gas prices and less gas sofd . Energy sales were higher in 2016 by $7.2 million as compared to 2015 due to higher prices and higher energy sales.

2015 compared to 2014 Operating revenues decreased $50.6 million in 2015. Approximately $47.2 million from retail sales includes the 2.5 percent rate increase that went into effect January 1, 2015. As of December 31 ,

$24.3 million from the HRSF, respectively. The transfer from the HRSF caused the fund to be depleted and subsequently the 1.3 percent HGA surcharge was implemented.

Wholesale revenues are comprised of both surplus gas and energy sales which are part of the operational strategy in managing fuel and energy costs. In 2015, surplus gas sales were lower than 2014 by $55.2 million due to lower gas prices and less gas sold.

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 , generati on, transmi ssion, 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 Municipal Utility District Financing Authority (SFA), the Sacramento Power Authority (SPA), and the Northern California Gas Authority No. 1 (NCGA). The primary p'urpose of CVFA, SCA, SFA and SPA 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).

Sacramento Municipal Utility District I 2016 Annual Report NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS Plant in Service. Capital assets are generally defined by SMUD as tangible assets with an initial , individual cost of more than three thousand dollars and an estimated useful life in excess of two years. 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 Utility Plant, retirements are recorded against Accumulated Depreciation and the retired portion of 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 2016 and 2015 were 3.3 and 3.5 percent, respectively.

Depreciation is calculated using the following estimated lives:

Generation 5 to 80 years Transmission and Distribution 15 to 50 years Gas Pipeline 5 to 90 years General 5 to 60 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 of accounting 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 (see Note 5).

SMUD's investment in the Balancing Authority of Northern California (BANC) is accounted for under the equity method of accounting. SMUD's share of the BANC operations and mainten-ance expense is included in Transmission and Distribution expense in the Consolidated Statements of Revenues, Expenses and Changes in Net Position (see Note 5).

Investment in Gas Properties. SMUD has an approximate 21 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 exp loratory 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 rese~ves 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.

Restricted Bond Funds. SMUD's Indenture Agreements (Indenture) requires the maintenance of minimum levels of reserves for debt service on the 1997 Series K Bonds and the 2003 Series R Bonds. In 2015, the 2003 Series R Bonds were paid off and only the reserve for debt service for the 1997 Series K Bonds existed at December 31 ,

2016 and 2015.

Sacramento Municipal Utility District I 2016 An,nual Report NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

~uclear 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 Tr~st Fund (see Note 13). Interest earnings on the Trust Fund assets are recorded as Interest Income and are accumulated in 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 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 defertal. 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, 2016 and 2015, SMUD's Accrued Decommissioning balance in the Consolidated Statements of Net Position relating to Rancho Seco was $148.0 million and $150.4 million, respectively (see Note 13). The Accrued Decommissioning balance in the Consolidated Statements of Net Position relating to other electricity ger.ieration and gas production facilities totaled $11.6 million and $10.8 million as of December 31, 2016 and 2015, 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 a $65.0 million maximum and cash equivalents representing amounts which may be withdrawn once per month after a thirty-day period (see Note 7).

Investments. SMUD 's investments are reported at fair value in accordance with Statement *of Governmental Accounting Standards (SGAS) No. 72, "Fair Value Measurement and Application," (see Note 3). 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.

SMUD ANNUAL REPORT 2016 I Empow_ering

Sacramento Municipal Utility District I 2016 Annual Report NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 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, 2016 and 2015, unbilled revenues were $72.2 million and $72.5 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 electric) 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 SMUD's counterparties and other credit services, 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 neg<}tive exposures associated with a single counterparty. SMUD is also subject to similar requirements for many of its gas and power purchase agreements. SMUD uses a combination of cash and securities to satisfy its collateral requirements to counterparties. SMUD's component unit, NCGA, entered into a guaranteed investment contract and is expos~d to credit risk related to nonperformance by its investment provider. The investment provider provides.

collateral if their credit ratings fall below agreed upon levels. At December 31, 20 i6 and 2015, respective ly, SMUD held $3.9 million and $4.4 million on deposit by counterparties and an investment provider. The amount is recorded as unrestricted cash and current restricted cash with an associated current liability. At December 31 , 2016 and 2015, SMUD posted cash co llateral of $1.5 million and $45.5 million, respectively, 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 servic~ 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 Con-solidated Statements of Revenues, Expenses and Changes in Net Position.

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 SGAS Statement No. 62, "Codification ofAccounting and Financial Reporting Guidance Co.ntained in Pre-November 30, 1989 FASB and A/CPA Pronouncements," 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 ote 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 made for sick leave when employees terminate or retire. At December 31, 2016 and 2015, the total estimated liability for vacation and other compensated absences was $24.9 million and $23.9 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_ofthe 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 extinguishrnents 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.

SM UD ANNUAL RE PORT 2016 I Empowering

• Sacramento Municipal Utility District I 2016 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 2016 and 2015 was 2.3 percent and 2.8 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 power 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 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 ifthe 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 output of the plant. In April 2012, under the terms of the Construction Management Agreement, SMUD, on behalf of the ~urchaser, completed construction of the 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 are amortized as Purchased Power Expense on the Consolidated Statements 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 are amortized as Purchased Power Expense on the Consolidated Statements 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 ?f 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.

Empowering I SMUD ANNUAL, REPORT 2016

Sacramento Municipal Utility District I 2016 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).

Pollution Remediation. SGAS No. 49 , "Accounting and Financial Reporting for Pollution Remediation Obligations," (GASB No . 49) requires that a liability be recognized for expected outlays for remediating existing pollution when certain triggering events occur. SMUD recorded a pollution remediation obligation for its North City Substation, which was built on a former landfill and also for the Former Community Linen Rental Services Property (see Note 18). In 2016, SMUD identified and recorded a pollution remediation obligation for a land site where it will be building a substation (see Note 18) an? in 2015, SMUD identified and recorded a pollution remediation obligation for its Headquarters building that it will be renovating. At December 31 , 2016 and 2015 ,

the total pollution remediation liability was $35.3 million and $19.7 million, respectively, and recorded as either Current Liabilities, Customer Deposits and Other or oncurrent Liabilities, Self Insurance and Other Liabilities in the Consolidated Statements of Net Position. Costs were estim*ated using the expected cash flow technique prescribed under GASB No . 49, including only amounts that are reasonably estimable.

Hydro License. SMUD owns and operates the Upper American River Hydroelectric Project (UARP). The original license to construct and operate the UARP was issued in 1957 by FERC. In 2014, SMUD received a new hydro license for a term of 50 years, effective July 1, 2014. As part of the hydro licensing process, SMUD entered into four contracts with government agencies whereby SMUD makes annual payments to them for various services for the term of the license. At December 31 , 2016 and 2015, the liability for these contract payments was $57.8 million <;1nd

$55.0 million , respectively, and recorded as either Current Liabilities, Customer Deposits and Other or Noncurrent Liabilities, Self Insurance and Other Liabilities in the Consolidated Statements of Net Position (see Note 17).

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 and participated in the program auctions in 2015 and 2016. In a normal water year, SMUD expects its free allocation of allowances from the Air Resources Board to 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.

Net Pension Liability (NPL). SMUD implemented SGAS No. 68 "Accounting and Financial Reporting for Pensions -An Amendment of GASB Statement No. 27" (GASB No . 68) in 2015. Under GASB No. 68 , the NPL is the difference between the actuarial present value of projected pension benefit payments attributable to employees' past service and the Plan's fiduciary net position. At December 31 , 2016 and 2015, the NPL was

$499.2 million and $381.3 million, respectively (see Note 14).

SMUD ANNUAL REPORT 2016 I Empowering

Sacramento Municipal Utility District I 2016 Annual Report NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 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 va lued 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 faci lities.

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 projects which include, but are not limited to , advanced and renewable technologies, electric transportation, and energy efficiency.

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. When applicable, these programs may be subject to financial and compliance aud its pursuant to regulatory requirements. SMUD considers the possibility of any material disallowances to be remote. During 2016 , SMUD recorded $0.5 million of grant proceeds and recognized

$0.3 million as a component of Other Income - Net, in the Consolidated Statements of Revenues, Expenses and Changes in Net Position, and $0.2 million as a Regulatory Credit. During 2015, SMUD recorded $3.0 million of grant proceeds and recognized $2.5 million as a component of Other Income - Net, in the Consolidated Statements of Revenues, Expenses and Changes in Net Position, and $0.5 million as a Regulatory Credit (see Note 8).

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 reduced subsidy payments in 2016 and 2015 due to budget sequestration by the federal government. SMUD recognized $9.1 million in revenues in 2016 and also in 2015 for its Build America Bonds, as a component of Other Income - et, in the Consolidated Statements of Revenues, Expenses and Changes in et Position.

Empowering I SMUD ANNUAL REPORT 2016

Sacramento Municipal Utility District I 2016 Annual Report NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 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.

Rancho Seco Litigation. In June 1983, SMUD and the United States (U.S.) Department of Energy (DOE) entered into a contract whereby the DOE would build a repository for the acceptance and disposal of SMUD's spent nuclear fuel (SNF) and/or high-level radioactive waste (HLW). SMUD paid the DOE a total of approximately $40.0 million in fees under the contract, thus satisfying its obligation of performance under the contract. DOE did not build a repository and therefore breached its obligation under the contract to commence acceptance of SNF and HLW by January 31, 1998. As a result, SMUD incurred costs to design, license, and fabricate its own on-site storage facility for the long term dry storage of its spent fuel at Rancho Seco. SMUD filed a suit against the DOE in 2009 which covered costs incurred from 2004 through 2009. In February 2015, SMUD received an award for $22.5 million from the U.S. Court of Claims which was recorded as Other Income - Net in the Consolidated Statements of Revenues, Expenses and Changes in Net Position. In June 2015, SMUD filed a suit against DOE which covered the costs incurred from 2010 through at least June 2015.

Pacific Gas & Electric (PG&E) Refund. In June 2016, SMUD received a $17.9 million refund from PG&E in association with the PG&E 2010 natural gas transmission pipeline explosion in San Bruno. The California Public Utilities Commission imposed a penalty on PG&E requiring them to provide a one-time bill credit to natural gas customers on their June 2016 bills based on usage for a prescribed time period. The $17.9 million refund was recorded as Other Income - Net in the Consolidated Statements of Revenues, Expenses and Changes in Net Position and passed through to the component units.

Subsequent Events. Subsequent events for SMUD have been evaluated through February 17, 2017, which is the date that the financial statements were available to be issued.

Reclassifications. Certain amounts in the 2015 Consolidated Financial Statements have been reclassified in order

' to conform to the 2016 presentation.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements. In June 2015, GASB issued SGAS No. 75, "Accounting and Financial Reporting for Postemployment Benefits Other Than Pensions" (GASB No. 75). The primary objective of GASB No. 75 is to improve accounting and financial reporting by state and local governments for postemployment benefits other than pensions (other postemployment benefits or OPEB). This statement replaces the requirements of SGAS No. 45 "Accounting and Financial Reporting by Employers for Postemployment Benefits Other Than Pensions, " as amended, and SGAS No. 57 "OPEB Measurements by Agent Employers andAgent Multiple-Employer Plans." This statement establishes standards for measuring and recognizing liabilities, deferred outflows and deferred inflows of resources, and expenses. For defined benefit OPEB, GASB N9. 75 identifies the methods and assumptions that are required to 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 defined benefit OPEB also are addressed. In addition, this statement details the recognition and disclosure requirements for employers with payables to defined benefit OPEB plans that are administered through trusts that meet the specified criteria. This statement is effective for SMUD in 2018. SMUD is currently assessing the financial statement impact of adopting this statement.

SMUD ANNUAL REPORT 2016 I Empowering

Sacramento Municipal Utility District I 2016 Annual Report NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS In June 2015, 'GASB issued SGAS No. 76, "The Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles for State and Local Governments" (GASB No. 76). GASB No . 76 established the hierarchy of GAAP for state and local governments. This statement supersedes SGAS No. 55, " The Hierarchy ofGenerallyAcceptedAccounting Principles for State and Local Governments." The GAAP hierarchy sets forth what constitutes GAAP for all state and local governmental entities. lt establishes the order of priority of pronouncements and other sources of accounting and financial reporting guidance that a governmental entity should apply. Category A is compri sed of GASB statements. Category B includes GASB Technical Bulletins, GASB Implementation Guides, and literature of the AICPA cleared by the GASB. Thi s statement is effective for SMUD in 2016. SMUD has assessed the financial statement impact of adopting the new statement, and its impact is not material.

In November 2016, GASB issued SGAS No . 83, "Certain Asset Retirement Obligations" (GASB No. 83).

An Asset Retirement Obligation (ARO) is a legally enforceabl.e liability associated with the retirement of a tangible capital asset. A government that has legal obligations to perform future asset retirement activities related to its tangible capital assets should recognize a liability based on the guidance in this statement. GASB No. 83 establishes the criteria for determining the timing and pattern of recognition of a liability and a corresponding deferred outflow of resources for AROs . Recognition occurs when the liability is both incurred and reasonably estimable. The determination of when the liability is incurred should be based on the occurrence of external laws, regulations, contracts, or court judgments, together with the occurrence of an internal event that obligates the government to perform the asset retirement activities. GASB No. 83 requires the measurement of the ARO be based on the probability weighted best estimate of the current value of outlays expected to be incurred, and adjusted for general ,

inflation or deflation at least annually. It requires a government to evaluate all relevant factors at least annually to determine whether the effects of one or more-of the factors are expected to significantly change the estimated asset retirement outlays. The ARO should only be remeasured when the result of the evaluation indicates a significant change in the estimated outlays. GASB No. 83 also requires disclosures of descriptive information about the nature of a government's AROs including the methods and assumptions used for the estimates of the liabilities, the estimated remaining useful life of the associated tangible capital assets, how any funding and assurance requirements are being met, and the amount of any assets restricted for payment of the AROs (if not separately displayed in the financial statements). If a liability for an ARO (or portions thereof) has been incurred by a government but is not yet recognized because it is not reasonably estimable,.the government should disclose that fact and the reasons therefor. This statement is effective for SMUD in 2019. SMUD is currently assessing the financial statement impact of adopting this statement. SMUD currently records AROs following the FASB guidance (see Accrued Decommissioning under Note 2).

NOTE 3. ACCOUNTING CHANGE In February 2015, GASB issued SGAS No. 72, "Fair Value Measurement and Application" (GASB No. 72).

GASB No . 72 addresses accounting and financial reporting issues related to fair value measurements. This statement requires investments to be measured at fair value . An investment is defined as a security or other asset that (a) a government holds primarily for the purpose of income or profit and (b) has a present service capac~ty based solely on its ability to generate cash or to be sold to generate cash . Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability (described as an exit price) in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. This statement requires valuation techniques Empowering I SMUD ANNUAL REPORT 2016

Sacramento Municipal Utility District I 2016 Annual Report NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS that are appropriate in the circumstances and for which sufficient data are available to be used to measure fair value. The valuation techniques should be consistent with one or more of the following approaches: the market approach, the cost approach , or the income approach. This statement establishes a hierarchy of inputs to the valuation techniques used to measure fair value. The hierarchy has three levels. Level I inputs are quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. Level 2 inputs are inputs, other than quoted prices, included within Level 1 that a:e observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs reflecting SMUD's own assumptions developed from the best information available in the circumstances. A fair value takes into account the highest and best use for a nonfinancial asset. This statement requires disclosures to be made about fair value measurements, the level of fair value hierarchy, valuation techniques and ch~nges in valuation techniques, and for nonrecurring fair value measurements, the reason(s) for the measurement.

This statement is effective for SMUD i~ 2016. SMUD implemented GASB No. 72 for investments and derivative financial instrum~nts that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis. The implementation changed the valuation of the interest rate swap agreements. As a result, SMUD restated the December 31 , 2015 Consolidated Statement of Net Position and the Supplemental Cash Flow Information to reflect this change for comparative purposes. The disclosures are presented in a table displaying the major categories of assets and liabilities measured at fair value and separated into the level of the hierarchy on which the fair value is based (see Note 12).

In March 2016, GASB issued SGAS }lo. 82, "Pension Issues -An amendment of GASB Statements No. 67, No. 68, and No. 73" (GASB No. 82). The objective of GASB No. 82 is to address certain issues that have been raised with respect to GASB No. 67, No. 68, and No. 73 regarding (1) the presentation of payroll-related measures in required supplementary information, (2) the selection of assumptions and the treatment of deviations from the guidance in an Actuarial Standard of Practice for financial reporting purposes, and (3) the classification of payments made by employers to satisfy employee (plan member) contribution requirements. GASB No. 82 chqnged the reql!ired presentation of covered-employee payroll, which is the payroll of employees that are provided with pensions through a pension plan, to instead require the presentation of covered payroll, defined as the payroll on which contributions to a pension plan are based. This measure is used in ratios in the schedules of required supplementary information . GASB No. 82 clarifies that payments made by an employer to satisfy contribution requirements that are identified by the pension plan terms as plan member contribution requirements should be classified as plan member contributions for purposes of GASB No. 67 and as employee contributions for purposes of GASB No. 68. It also requires that an employer's expense and expenditures for those amounts be recognized in the period for which the contribution is assessed and classified in the same manner as the employer classifies similar compensation other than pensions (for example, as salaries and wages or as fringe benefits) .

SMUD implemented GASB No. 82 in 2016. The ~mplementation changed the classification of payments made by SMUD to satisfy employee (plan member) contribution requirements. As a result, SMUD restated the December 31, 2015 Consolidated Statement of Net Position, the Consolidated Statement of Revenues, Expenses and Changes in Net Position, and the Supplemental Cash Flow Information to reflect this change for comparative purposes. SMUD has updated the required presentation of payroll-related measures to use covered payroll, instead of covered-employee payroll, in ratios in the schedules of required supplementary information.

Sacramento Municipal Utility District I 2016 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 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. SMUD'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. This is the risk that an issuer of an investment will not fulfill its obligation to the holder of the investment. To mitigate this risk, SMUD limits investments to those rated, at a 1i:inimum, "A-1" 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, 2016 and 2015, $11.3 million and $23.2 million in deposits were uninsured, respectively.

!22 percent and 117 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, 2016 and 2015, respectively. At December 31, 2016, SMUD had money market mutual funds of $111.3 million which were uninsured. At December 31, 2015, SMUD had money market mutual funds and a deposit account, totaling $109.3 million which were uninsured. 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.

Sacramento Municipal Utility District I 2016 Annual Report NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS NOTE s. 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 (see 'Note 2). 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.

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 bala~ce is charged or credited into rates as the related asset or liability is utilized (see Note 9).

Senate Bill 1. SMUD implemented a per kilowatt hour solar surcharge, effective January I , 2008 in order to fund investments in solar required by Senate Bill I (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 2016, SMUD spent less than it collected in SB-I revenues and has recorded a regulatory credit.

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 amortized through 2017 for the portion related to SMUD's debt issuance costs and over the life of the bonds for the portion related to the component units' debt issuance costs. Debt issuance costs after December 31, 2013 are expensed.

Pension. SMUD established a regulatory asset for.pension costs related to the implen:ientation of GASB No. 68 which requires SMUD to record a net pension liability. The regulatory asset will be amortized over a period of 25 years starting in 20 I 8.

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

Sacramento Municipal Utility District I 2016 Annual Report NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS Regulatory C~edits CIAC. In 2016 and 2015, SMUD added CIAC totaling $15.6 million and $16.9 mi°llion, respectively, to Regulatory Credits in the Consolidated Statements of Net Position and recorded $11.4 million and $10.9 million of amortization, respectively, to Oth~r Income - Net in the Consolidated Statements of Revemies, Expenses and Changes in Net Position. SMUD's regulatory credit relating to CIAC is intended to offset the reveryue 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 2016, $5.1 million was transferred from the RSF to revenue as a result of lower than budgeted energy deliveries from Western Area Power Administration (Western).

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 2016, $10.0 million was transferred from revenue to the HRSF as a result of high precipitation.

Energy Assistance Program Rate (EAPR). In 2016, The Board authorized SMUD to transfer $10.0 million of revenue to a regulatory credit related to EAPR. This regulatory credit is intended to offset future expenditures for energy efficiency programs for EAPR customers from the period 2017- 2020.

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 ea~nings effect of these non-exchange transactions.

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 ofTANC's accrual-based costs of operations. This regulatory asset is being collected in rates over the life of TAN C's assets during the period that cash payments to TANC exceed TANC's accrual-based costs. SMUD's cash payments to TANC exceeded TANC's accrual-based costs and SMUD has recorded a regulatory credit.

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 ag(eements 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. 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 SGAS No. 53 Accounting and Financial Reporting for Derivative Instruments" (GASB o. 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 purpost;s as regulatory assets or liabilities on the Consolidated Statements of Net Position (see Note 8).

During 2016 and 2015, 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 following table . 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 calculates the fair value by discounting the expected cash , flows at their corresponding zero coupon rate .

One swap is used to convert some of the interest expense associated with fixed rate bonds to a variable rate interest expense. SMUD also has two forward starting swaps that are designed to partially fix the interest expense 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.

Derivatives Not Designated as Hedging Instruments Gas and Electric Contracts. SMUD utilizes certain gas swap and electric swap agreements under G!'SB 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 on the Consolidated Statements of Net Position in either Current or Noncurrent Assets, Investment Derivative Instruments if in an asset position or Current or Noncurrent Liabilities, Investment Derivative Instruments if in a liability position.

Empowering I SMUD A NN UAL RE PO RT 2 016

Sacramento Municipal Utility District I 2016 Annual Report NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 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, 2016.

Interest Rate Risk. This 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. This 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, and with NYMEX futures contracts, which settle based on the price at Henry Hub, Louisiana. SMUD enters into basis swaps to hedge against this risk.

Termination Risk. This 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. This 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 provtsions 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 credit rating 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 credit rating 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).

In June 2016, SMUD issued $149.9 million of2016 Series D Electric Revenue Refunding Bonds. Proceeds from the 2016 Series Bonds were used to refund $125.4 million of the outstanding 2008 Series U Bonds, and $43.6 million of outstanding 2011 Series X Bonds, through a legal defeasance, and accordingly, the liability for the defeased bonds has been removed from Long-Term Debt in the Consofidated Statements of Net Position. The refunding resulted in the recognition of a deferred accounting loss of$12.6 million, which is being amortized over the life of the refunding issue. The 2016 refunding reduced future aggregate debt service payments by $27.2 million and resulted in a total economic gain of$23.4 million, which (s the difference between the present value of the old and new debt service payments.

2016 Conversion to Direct Placement In October and November of 2016, SMUD completed transactions to convert all of the outstanding 2008 Series J, 2008 Series K, 2012 Series L, and 2012 Series M Bonds to direct placements, totaling $341.9 million (see Direct Purchase Agreements below). As part of each transaction, new bonds were issued to defease the old bonds, and as a result, the reimbursement agreements with Bank of America, State Street, and US Bank were terminated. The scheduled principal payments remain unchanged unless the bonds aren 't successfully remarketed at the end of the term. Accordingly, SMUD has recorded such bonds as Long-Term Debt, less amounts due within one year in the Consolidated Statements of Net Position. No additional deferred gain or loss or economic gain resulted from these transactions.

SMUD has a fixed-to-variable interest rate swap agreement with a 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 Securities Industry and Financial Markets Association (SIFMA) Index (0 .72 percent at December 31, 2016) and receives fixed rate payments of 5.154 percent. In connection with the swap agreement, SMUD has a put option agreement, also with a notional amount of $131.0 million, which gives

.the counterparty the right to sell to SMUD, at par, either the 1997 SeriesK Bonds, or a portfolio of securities sufficient to defease the 1997 Series K Bonds. SMUD receives fixed rate payments of 0.268 percent in connection with the put option agreement. 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 has two variable-to-fixed interest rate swap agreements with a combined notional amount of$151.8 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.

Sacramento Municipal Utility District I 2016 Annual Report NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS Additionally, in June 2016, SMUD executed variable-to-fixed interest rate swap agreements with Wells Fargo and Bank of America with a combined notional amount of $200.2 million. These were entered into for the purpose of fixing the effective interest rate associated with subordinated bonds that are expected to be issued in July of2018.

The swaps do not take effect until July 12, 2018. The notional values of the two swaps are amortized over the life of their respective swap agreements. SMUD can terminate both swap agreements at any time, with payment or receipt of the fair market value of the swaps as of the date of termination. Additionally, on August 15, 2023 and for the remaining life of the swaps, the swaps can be terminated at no cost to SMUD. 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.

At December 31 , 2016 NCGA had 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 counterparty a fixed rate on the notional amount and receives a floating rate equal to 67 percent of the three month LIBOR (l.O percent at December 31, 2016) plus an interest rate spread;as specified in each swap agreement.

The total notional amount of the three swaps at December 31, 2016 was $292.9 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.

Direct Purchase Agreements. On October 31 , 2016, SMUD completed two transactions in which US Bank and State Street purchased all of the outstanding 2012 Series L and Series M Bonds, respectively. As a result of these transactions, SMUD issued the 2016 Series and the Series 0 Bonds for the purpose of defeasing the 2012 Series L and Series M Bonds, respectively. SMUD pays {ntere~t on both series on a monthly basis at the rate of 70 per.cent of one-month LIBOR plus a fixed fee . The terms are three and a half years, at the end of which SMUD can remarket the bonds, utilize another interest rate mode, or if remarketing is unsuccessful, pay the bonds over five years. The scheduled principal payments for the 2016 Series N and Series 0 Bonds are the same as the defeased 2012 Series L and Series M Bonds, respectively, unless the bonds aren't successfully remarketed at the end of the term.

On November 16, 2016 SMUD completed a transaction in which Bank of America purchased all of the outstanding 2008 Series J and 2008 Series K Bonds. As a result of this transaction, the bonds have been renamed the 2016 Series P and the 2016 Series Q Bonds, and SMUD pays interest on a monthly basis at the rate of 70 percent of one-month LIBOR plus a fixed fee . The term is three years, at the end of which SMUD can remarket the bonds, utilize another interest rate mode, or if remarketing is unsuccessful, pay the bonds over five years. The scheduled principal payments remain unchanged unless the bonds aren't successfully remarketed at the end of the term.

Sacramento Municipal Utility District I 2016 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 CVFA, SCA, and SFA bon~s' debt service is provided by "take-or-pay" power purchase agreements, and is therefore not dependent on the successful operation of the projects. SMUD guarantees to make payments sufficient to pay principal and interest and all other payments required to be made under the CVFA's, SCA's, and SFA's indenture of trust. CVFA, SCA, and SFA are not required to repay SMUD for any amounts paid under this guarantee. The revenue stream to pay NCGA bonds' debt service is provided by a "take-and-pay" purchase agreement. Therefore, principal and interest associated with these bonds are paid solely from the revenues and receipts collected in connection with the operation of the project. Most operating revenues earned by NCGA are collected from SMUD in connection with the sale of gas to SMUD. The ability for NCGA to service debt is dependent on various parties (particularly MSCG, as gas supplier) meeting their contractual obligations.

Callable Bonds. SMUD has $791.9 million of Electric Revenue Bonds that are currently callable, $450.0 million of which are fixed rate Build America Bonds debt and $341.9 million of subordinate bonds. SMUD also has

$730.6 million of bonds that become callable from 2018 through 2026, 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 J"\et 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 1997 through 2016. 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 , 2016.

GASB No. 72 defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date (an exit price). SMUD utilizes market data or assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability, including assumptions about risk and the risks inherent in the inputs to the valuation technique .

GASB No. 72 establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs used to measure fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3). The three levels of the fair value hierarchy defined by GASB No. 72 are as follows:

• Level 1 inputs are quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

• Level 2 inputs are inputs other than quoted prices included in Level I that are observable for an asset or liability, either directly or indirectly.

• Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs that reflect SMUD's own assumptions about factors that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability.

Empowering I SMUD AN N UAL REPORT 20 16

Sacramento Municipa l Utility District I 2 0 16 Annual Report NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS The valuation methods of the fair value measurements are disclosed below.

• LAIF - uses the fair value of the pool's share price multiplied by the number of shares held. This pool can include a variety of investments such as U.S. government securities, federal agency securities, negotiable certificates of deposit, bankers' acceptances, commercial paper, corporate bonds, bank notes, and other investments. The fair values of the securities are generally based on quoted market prices.

• Money Market Mutual Funds - uses a net asset value . Money market mutual funds may include several different underlying short term obligati0ns, including corporates, U.S. Treasuries, U.S. Government Agency Obligations, and municipal securities. Certain investments within the fund may be deemed unobservable and not considered to be in an active market.

• U.S. Government Agency Obligations - uses a market based approach which considers yield, price of comparable securities, coupon rate, maturity, credit quality and dealer-provided prices.

• U.S. Treasury Obligations - uses a market approach based on institutional bond quotes . Evaluations are based on various market and industry inputs.

• Corporate Notes - uses a market based approach. Evaluations are based on various market and industry inputs.

• Municipal Bonds - uses a market approach based on institutional bond quotes. Evaluations are based on various market and industry inputs.

Investment Derivative Instruments:

• Interest rate swap agreements - uses the present value technique. The fair value of the interest rate swap agreements are calculated by discounting the expected cash flows at their corresponding zero coupon rate.

The cash flows are estimated based on a I-month LIBOR forward curve from Bloomberg, and assuming SIFMA is equal to 70 percent of I-month LIBOR.

• Gas related agreements - uses the market approach based on monthly quoted prices from an independent external pricing service. The fair values for natural gas and electricity derivative financial instruments are calculated based on prevailing market quotes in active markets (i.e., Henry Hub and So Cal) where identical contracts are avai lable .

Sacramento Municipal Utility District I 2016 Annual Report NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 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 Installation (ISFSI) facility. 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 ( RC) 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 DOE removes the spent nuclear fuel and high level waste from the site.

In 2009, the NRC released all of the land formerly under the Part 50 license for unrestricted use with the exception of the 1 acre fenced area around the Interim Onsite Storage Building that was previously used to store low-level radioactive waste produced during the decommissioning of the nuclear reactor facility. This waste was disposed of in 2014. The decommissioning of that remaining facility began in 2015 and was completed in January 2017. With the submittal of the Final Status Survey Summary Report and accompanying License Amendment Request, the former operating license issued under Part 50 should be terminated in 20p.

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 disposai 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 Mounta.in as a high-level waste repository, essentially removing Yuc~a Mountain as an option for disposal of SMUD's used nuclear fuel. The DOE also announced in January 20 I0 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 Managemt:nt 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 (ARO). 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 an increase in costs in the 2016 study. The ARO estimate assumes all spent nuclear fuel will be removed from the site by 2035.

For purposes of measuring net pension liability, deferred outflows of resources and deferred inflows of resources related to pensions, and pension expense, information about the fiduciary net position of the pension plan (Plan) and additions to/deductions from the Plan's fiduciary net position have been determined on the same basis as they are reported by the California Public Employees' Retirement System (PERS)

Financial Office. For this purpose, benefit payments (including refunds of employee contributions) are recognized when currently due and payable in accordance with the benefit terms. Investments are reported at fair value.

GASB No. 68 requires that the reported results must pertain to liability and asset information within certain defined timeframes . The following timeframes are used for the year ended:

Sacramento Municipal Utility District I 2016 Annual Report NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS Plan Description and Benefits Provided. SMUD participates in 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 admin-istrative 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 employee's years of credited service, age, and final compensation.

A full description of the pension plan regarding number of employees covered, benefit provision, assumptions (for funding, but not accounting purposes), and membership information are included in the annual actuarial valuation reports as of June 30, 2015 and June 30, 2014. These reports and the PERS' audited financial statements are publicly available and can be obtained at the PERS' website at www.calpers.ca.gov.

Employees Covered by Benefit Terms. The following employees were covered by the benefit terms for the year ended:

December 31, 2016 2015

( thousands of dollars )

Inactive employees or beneficiaries currently receiving benefit payments 2,718 2,657 Inactive employees entitled to but not yet receiving benefit payments 944 940 Active employees 2,014 1,974 Total employees covered by benefit terms 5,676 5,571 Contributions. Section 20814(c) of the California Public Employees' Retirement Law requires that the employer contribution rates for all public employers be determined on an annual basis by the actuary and shall be effective on the July 1 following notice of a change in the rate. The total plan contributions are determined through PERS' annual actuarial valuation process. The actuarially determined rate is the estimated amount necessary to finance the costs of ben((fits earned by employees during the year, with an additional amount to finance any unfunded accrued liability. The employer is required to contribute the difference between the actuarially determined rate and the contribution rate of employees. F~r the PERS fiscal year ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, the average active employee contribution rate is 6.9 percent of annual pay for both years, and the employer's contribution rate is 14. l percent and 12.0 percent of annual payroll, respectively. Employer contribution rates may change if plan contracts are amended.

For the year ended December 31, 2016 and 2015, SMUD made contributions recognized by the pension plan in the amount of $27.6 million and $22.5 million, respectively.

Net Pension Liability. SMUD's NPL at December 31, 2016 and 2015 was measured at June 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively. The total pension liability used to calculate the NPL was determined by actuarial valuations as of June 30, 2015 and 2014 rolled forward using generally accepted actuarial procedure~ to the June 30, 2016 and 2015 measurement dates.

-NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS Actuarial Methods and Assumptions. The actuarial methods and assumptions used for the December 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015 total pension liabilities are as follows:

Actuarial Cost Method Entry age normal Discount Rate 7.65%

Inflation 2.75%

Salary Increases Varies by entry age and service Mortality Rate Table The mortality table used was developed based on PERS' specific data.

The table includes 20 years of mortality improvements using Society of Actuaries Scale*BB.

Post Retirement Benefit Increase Contract COLA up to 2.75% until Purchase Power Protection Allowance Floor on Purchasing Power applies, 2.75% thereafter All other actuarial assumptions used for both years were based on the results of an actuarial experience study for the period from 1997 to 2011, including updates to salary increase, mortality and retirement rates.

Discount Rates. The discount rate used to measure the total pension liability for the years ended December 31, 2016 and 2015 was 7.65 percent. To determine whether the municipal bond rate should be used in the calculation of a discount rate for each plan, PERS stress tested plans that would most likely result in a discount rate that would be different from the actuarially assumed discount rate. The tests revealed the assets would not run out. Therefore, the 7 .65 percent discount rate used for both valuations is appropriate and the use of the municipal bond rate calculation is not deemed necessary. The long-term expected discount rate of 7 .65 percent is applied to all plans in the Public Employees Retirement Fund. The cash flows used in the testing )Vere developed assuming that both members and employers will make their required contributions on time and as scheduled in all future years.

The long-term expected rate of return on pension plan inve~trnents was determined using a building-block method in which best-estimate ranges of expected future real rates of return (expected returns, net of pension plan investment expense and inflation) are developed for each major asset class. Using historical refurns of all the funds' asset classes, expected compound (geometric) returns were calculated over the short-term (first 10 years) and the long-term

( 11 - 60 years) using a building-block approach.

The table below reflects long-term expected real rate of return by asset class. The rate of return was calculated using the capital market assumptions applied to, determine the discount rate and asset allocation. The target allocation shown below was adopted by the PERS' Board effective on July 1, 2015.

Sacramento Municipal Utility District I 2016 Annual Report NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 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 eithe'r 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 com-pliance with IRC requirements concerning the Plans and has the fiduciary 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 I (k) Plan on behalf of certain employees pursuant to a memorandum of understanding with both of its collective bargaining units. SMUD also matches non-represented employee contri-butions to.the40l(k) Plan up to a set amount. SMUD made contributions into the 401(k) Plan of$3.9 million in 2016 and $3.5 million in 2015. SMUD does not match employee contributions, nor make contributions on behalf of its employees to the 457 Plan. Participating employees made contributions into both Plans totaling $19. 7 million in 2016 and $18.5 million in 2015.

NOTE 1s. 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 I, 1991, and a portion of the cost based on credited years of service for retirees hired after January I, 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, 2016, 5,084 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 postemployment 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 !RC 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 unions. 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.

SMUD ANNUAL REPORT 2016 I Empowering

Sacramento Municipal Utility District I 2016 Annual Report NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 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 2016 and 2015 funded an additional $17.9 million and $22.0 million to the CERBT, respectively. In 2016 and 2015, the .net ARC contribution to the CERBT was $6.6 million for each year.

During 2016 and 2015, SMUD made healthcare benefit contributions by paying actual medical costs of$20.7 mi.Ilion and $ 17.4 million, respectively.

Funding Status and Funding Progress. At June 30, 2016 and 2015, SMUD estimates that the actuarially determined accumulated postemployment benefit obligation was approximately $377.0 million and $319.4 million, respectively. At June 30, 2016 and 2015, the plan was 59.7 and 55.2 percent funded, respectively. The covered payroll (annual payroll of active employees covered by the plan) at June 30, 2016 and 2015, was $210.3 million and

$ 191.4 million , respectively. The ratio of the unfunded actuarial accrued liability (UAAL) to covered payroll was 72 .3 percent at June 30, 2016.

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 basi s, 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 2016, SMUD's annual OPEB Cost (expense) was $ 13.4 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 asset:

Empowering SMUD ANNUAL RE PO RT 20 16

Sacramento Municipal Utility District I 2016 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, 2016 and 2015 actuarial valuations. The actuarial assumptions used for the June 30, 20 J.6 and 2015 valuations were 7 .25 investment rate ofreturn (net of administrative expenses) and a 3.0 percent inflation assumption for both years. The actuarial assumptions for an annual healthcare cost trend growth rate for 2016 and 2017 was based on actual premiums and ranged from 6.5 to 6.7 percent for 2018. Starting July I, 2015 , the UAAL is amortized as a level percentage of payroll over a closed 30-year period. At June 30, 2016 and 2015 the actuarial value of the assets was $225.0 and $176.2 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 multi-year 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 limits for most claims of$140.0 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 2016, 2015 and 2014, the insurance policies in effect have adequately covered all settlements of the claims against SMUD.

o 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 et Position.

Gas Price Swap Agreements. SMUD has entered into numerous variable to fixed rate swaps with notional amounts totaling 129,977,500 Dths 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 rate? ranging from $2.75 to $7.17 per Dth. The swap agreements expire periodically from January 2017 through December 2022.

Gas Tr'ansport 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 56,700 Dth per day (Dth/d) of natural gas pipeline capacity from the orth, including the Canadian Basins through 2023 and 51,300 Dth/d from the Southwest or Rocky Mountain Basins through at least 2019.

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 2018.

Hydro License Agreements. SMUD has a hydro license for *a term of 50 years effective July 1, 2014 (-see Note 2).

SMUD entered into four contracts with government agencies whereby SMUD makes annual payments to them for various services for the term of the license. Each contract is adjusted annually by an inflation index.

The present value of the sum of the annual payments is $57.8 million at December 31, 2016.

Construction Contracts. In June 2016, the SMUD Board authorized a contract for the design and build of the South Fork Powerhouse and Boating Flow Release Facility located in El Dorado County, California:The contract price is a not-to-exceed amount of $14.2 million and the contract term ends December 31, 2018. The DOE has committed to fund approximately $1.5 million of the project through a grant award to SMUD (see Note 2).

NOTE 1s. CLAIMS AND CONTINGENCIES FERC Administrative Proceedings. SMUD is involved in a number of FERC administrative proceedings related to the operation of wholesale energy markets, regional transmission planning, gas transportation, and the development of NERC reliability standards. While these proceedings are complex and numerous, they generally fall into the following categories: (i) filings initiated by the California Independent System Operator Corporation (CAISO) (or other market participants) to adopt/modify the CAISO Tariff and/or establish market design and behavior rules; (ii) filings initiated by existing transmission owners (i.e., PG&E and the other Investor Owned Utilities) to pass through costs to their existing wholesale transmission customers; (iii) filings initiated by FERC or market participants to SMUD ANNUAL REPORT 2016 I Empowering

Sacramento Municipal Utility District I 2016 Annual Report NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS establish market design and behavior rules or to complain about or investigate market behavior by certain market participants; (iv) filings initiated by transmission owners under their transmission owner tariffs for the purpose of establishing a regional transmission planning process; (v) filings initiated by providers of firm gas transportation service under the Natural Gas Act; and (vi) filings initiated by NERC to develop reliability standards applicable to owners, users, and operators of the bulk electric system. 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.

Construction Matters. SMUD contracts with various firms to design and construct facilities for SMUD.

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

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.

Environmental 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

• and/or comp laints and entered into settleme.nt agreements and/or consent orders. These settlement agreements and consent orders have statutory reopener provisions which allow regulatory agencies to seek additional funds for environmental 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 mana~ement does not believe that the outcome will-have a material adverse impact on SMUD 's financial position , liquidity or results of operations.

North City Remediation. ln 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 Nortli City Site. In 2009, SMUD recorded a liability related to the investigation, design and remediation necessary for the North City Site in the amount of $12.0 million estimated for the entire project. As the owner of the North City .Site, SMUD will have a role in the remediation selection and activities, as may those who operated or used the North City Site for landfill purposes. SMVD 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 are 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 responsible for all remediation costs associated with the orth City Site, SMUD management believes that the outcome of these remediation costs wi ll not have a material adverse impact on SMUD's financial position, liquidity or results of operations.

Station E. Jn April 2012, after conducting extensive drilling onsite to determine the pres~nce of hazardous and so lid waste onsite, SMUD entered into a purchase and sale agreement for property south and southwest of the North City Substation, to use for developing a new substation to replace orth City. In August 2015, while conducting excavation onsite in preparation for construction, SMUD contractors encountered quantities of solid and hazardous waste onsite in excess of what initial drilling indicated. SMVD is currently working with the County of Sacramento in its capacity as the solid waste local enforcement agency for approval of a Partial Clean Closure and Post-closure Land Use Plan (Plan) to allow development of the site for use as a substation while removing and disposing of hazardous waste and installing a cap over areas where waste will remain. SMUD has recorded an estimated liability re lated to implementing the Plan in the amount of $16.1 million. SMUD *is exploring recovery options from the parties that likely disposed of the hazardous waste onsite. Even if SMUD were to ultimately be responsible for all remediation costs associated with the Station E Site, SMUD management believes that the outcome of these remediation costs will not have a material adverse impact on SMUD 's financial position , liquidity or results of operations.

Empowering J SMUD AN N UA L REPORT 2016

Sacramento Municipal Utility District I 2016 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 6lst Street (Site). That same year, Community sold its linen business and equipment to Mission Laundry (Mission). SMUD continued to lease portion~ of the property to Mission until 1985.

SMUD settled with these businesses and waived a potential future legal claim for cleanup funding. /he property to the north of the Site was ownecj by Kramer Carton Company (Kramer) and used for 60 years as a carton manufacturing facility. Based on environmental investigations, it has been determined 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, albeit minor, contribution from the Kramer property. In 2016 SMUD purchased the Kramer Carton property from then-owner Willamette Capital Management, Ltd. (Willamette) at a price that reflected the estimated costs to clean both onsite soil contamination and the site's proportional contribution to groundwater contamination, and waived further contribution from Willamette. Preliminary environmental investigations of the Kramer property, the Site and areas south of the Kramer property indicate that total remediation costs will likely exceed $2 .0 million.

SMUD has recorded a liability for the estimated costs of the remediation. Although SMUD does not believe it is the source of the contamination, it appears that one or more of its predecessors in interest may be the cause of most of the contamination; Moreover, since Kramer is bankrupt, it is unclear whether it would be beneficial for SMUD to take legal action ~or contribution. 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.

Buena Vista Biomass Power LLC. On October 2, 2015, SMUD informed Buena Vista Biomass Power, LLC

_(Buena Vista) of its intent to terminate its existing power purchase agreement (PPA) in accordance with the terms of the PPA, due to Buena Vista's failure to meet its contractual obligations. On December 4, Buena Vista informed SMUD that it disputed SMUD 's right to terminate. On December 21 , SMUD issued Buena Vista a termination notice, effective December 31 , 2015. At the same time, the parties entered into a short term power purchase agreement effective January I, 2016, while the parties attempted to negotiate a longer term .arrangement on commercial terms acceptable to both parties. The short term agreement expired on February 29, 2016, and further negotiations with Buena Vista proved unsuccessful. Buena Vista filed an arbitration demand against SMUD on June 7, 2016. In the demand, Buena Vista claims damages against SMUD in the amount of $120.0 million on a theory of wrongful termination. SMUD is defending the action and expects tb prevail due to the clear language in the PPA which allows for termination for failure to meet contractual energy production figures for multiple consecutive years.

The arbitration hearing is set to commence on July 31 , 2017 and the parties are currently engaging in the discovery process. However, SMUD management does not believe that the outcome will 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.

NOTE 19. SUBSEQUENT EVENT In January and February 2017, SMUD experienced property damage from a series of winter storms. SMUD is currently assessing the amount of the damage and is pursuing claims under SMUD property insurance policies as well as with several Federal and State agencies.
