NATURAL GAS RATES TO CHANGE FOR LIBERTY UTILITIES CUSTOMERS

JEFFERSON CITY—The natural gas rates of Liberty Utilities (Midstates Natural Gas) Corp.
d/b/a Liberty Utilities customers will change under a filing that will take effect on October 1, 2020.

authorizes rate adjustments based on weather variations. The WNAR projects anticipated gas usage
changes due to weather that is either warmer or colder than normal. This filing generally reflected
warmer than normal weather in Liberty’s Northeast, West and Southeast rate districts.

using 100 Ccf of natural gas a month by approximately $2.01 a month in Liberty Utilities’ Northeast
