Table of Contents
RISK FACTORS
Before making a decision to invest in the Notes, you should carefully consider the following risk factors, as well as the other information included in this
prospectus supplement, the accompanying prospectus and the documents incorporated by reference into this prospectus supplement and the accompanying
prospectus.
Risks Relating to PPL Corporation's Businesses
See the risk factors set forth beginning on page 22 of PPL Corporation's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012 for a discussion of
certain risks relating to PPL Corporation's businesses.
Risks Relating to the Notes
PPL Corporation's cash flow and ability to meet its obligations with respect to its Guarantees of the Notes largely depend on the performance of its
subsidiaries. As a result, PPL Corporation's obligations with respect to its Guarantees of the Notes will be effectively subordinated to all existing and future
liabilities of its subsidiaries.
PPL Corporation is a holding company and conducts its operations primarily through subsidiaries. Substantially all of its consolidated assets are held by such
subsidiaries. Accordingly, its cash flow and its ability to meet its obligations under its Guarantees of the Notes are largely dependent upon the earnings of these
subsidiaries and the distribution or other payment of such earnings to it in the form of dividends, loans or advances or repayment of loans and advances from it. The
subsidiaries are separate and distinct legal entities and have no obligation to pay any amounts due on the Notes or to make any funds available for such payment.
Because PPL Corporation is a holding company, its obligations with respect to the Notes will be effectively subordinated to all existing and future liabilities of
its subsidiaries. Therefore, its rights and the rights of its creditors, including rights of a holder of any Note, to participate in the assets of any subsidiary in the event that
such a subsidiary is liquidated or reorganized will be subject to the prior claims of such subsidiary's creditors. To the extent that PPL Corporation may be a creditor
with recognized claims against any such subsidiary, its claims would still be effectively subordinated to any security interest in, or mortgages or other liens on, the
assets of the subsidiary and would be subordinated to any indebtedness or other liabilities of the subsidiary senior to that held by it. Although certain agreements to
which PPL Corporation's subsidiaries are parties limit the ability to incur additional indebtedness, PPL Corporation and its subsidiaries retain the ability to incur
substantial additional indebtedness and other liabilities.
The debt agreements of some of PPL Corporation's subsidiaries contain provisions that might restrict their ability to pay dividends, make distributions or
otherwise transfer funds to PPL Corporation upon failing to meet certain financial tests or other conditions prior to the payment of other obligations, including operating
expenses, debt service and reserves. PPL Corporation currently believes that all of its subsidiaries are in compliance with such tests and conditions. Further, if PPL
Corporation elects to receive distributions of earnings from its foreign operations, PPL Corporation may incur United States taxes, net of any available foreign tax
credits, on such amounts. Distributions to PPL Corporation from its international projects are, in some countries, also subject to withholding taxes.
An active trading market for the Notes may not develop.
Each series of Notes are a new issue of securities with no established trading market. We cannot assure that an active trading market for the Notes will develop.
There can be no assurances as to the liquidity of any market that may develop for the Notes, the ability of holders to sell their Notes or the price at which the holders
will be able to sell their Notes. Future trading prices of the Notes will depend on many factors including, among other things, prevailing interest rates, our operating
results and the market for similar securities.
