AUDIT COMMITTEE FINANCIAL EXPERTS
AQN’s board of directors has determined that it has one audit committee financial expert serving on its audit committee. Dilek Samil has been determined to be such audit committee financial expert and is “independent” as set forth in the Canadian National Instrument 58-101
Disclosure of Corporate Governance Practices
and Rule 10A-3 of the U.S. Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) has indicated that the designation as an audit committee financial expert does not make a person an “expert” for any purpose, impose any duties, obligations or liability on such persons that are greater than those imposed on members of the audit committee and board of directors who do not carry this designation or affect the duties, obligations or liability of any other member of the audit committee or board of directors.
CODE OF ETHICS
AQN has adopted a code of business conduct and ethics (the “Code of Conduct”) that applies to all employees and officers, including its Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer. The Code of Conduct is available without charge to any shareholder upon request to Brian Chin, Telephone: (905) 465-4450, E-mail: InvestorRelations@APUCorp.com, Algonquin Power & Utilities Corp., 354 Davis Road, Oakville, Ontario L6J 2X1.
PRINCIPAL ACCOUNTANT FEES AND SERVICES
The information provided under the heading “Pre-Approval Policies and Procedures” in the AIF, filed as Exhibit 99.1 to this annual report on Form 40-F, is incorporated by reference herein. All audit services, audit-related services, tax services, and other services provided for the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2022 were pre-approved by the audit committee.
OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS
AQN’s off-balance sheet arrangements consist of obligations under equity capital contribution agreements and guarantees for certain development projects which the Company does not have sole control. These instruments provide financial assurance necessary for the continued development and construction of the projects. The Company also pledged shares in Atlantica Sustainable Infrastructure plc (“Atlantica”) as collateral to a secured credit facility issued by the Company’s equity-method investee. For a discussion of these arrangements, refer to the information in note 8 and note 17 to the Consolidated Financial Statements, filed as Exhibit 99.2 to this annual report on Form 40-F and incorporated by reference herein, and the information under the heading “Enterprise Risk Management - Operational Risk Management - Joint Venture Investment Risk” in the MD&A, filed as Exhibit 99.3 to this annual report on Form 40-F and incorporated by reference herein.
CONTRACTUAL OBLIGATIONS
The information provided under the heading “Contractual Obligations” in the MD&A, filed as Exhibit 99.3 to this annual report on Form 40-F, is incorporated by reference herein.
NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES
The MD&A contains financial measures that are not recognized measures under U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”). Such terms include: “Adjusted Net Earnings”, “Adjusted Net Earnings per Common Share”, “Adjusted Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization” (“Adjusted EBITDA”), “Adjusted Funds from Operations”, “Net Energy Sales”, “Net Utility Sales” and “Divisional Operating Profit”. There is no standardized measure of these terms and, consequently, the Company’s method of calculating these measures may differ from methods used by other companies and therefore may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other companies. A calculation and analysis of “Adjusted Net Earnings”, “Adjusted Net Earnings per common share”, “Adjusted EBITDA”, “Adjusted Funds from Operations”, “Net Energy Sales”, “Net Utility Sales”, and “Divisional Operating Profit”, including a reconciliation to the U.S. GAAP equivalent, can be found in the MD&A under the headings “Caution Concerning Non-GAAP Financial Measures”, “Non-GAAP Financial Measures”, “Renewable Energy Group—2022 Renewable Energy Group Operating Results”, and “Regulated Services Group—2022 Regulated Services Group Operating Results”.
AQN does not provide reconciliations for forward-looking non-GAAP financial measures as AQN is unable to provide a meaningful or accurate calculation or estimation of reconciling items and the information is not available without unreasonable effort. This is due to the inherent difficulty of forecasting the timing or amount of various events that have not yet occurred, are out of AQN’s control and/or cannot be reasonably predicted, and that would impact the most directly comparable forward-looking U.S. GAAP financial measure. For these same reasons, AQN is unable to address the probable significance of the unavailable information. Forward-looking non-GAAP financial measures may vary materially from the corresponding U.S. GAAP financial measures.
The MD&A is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.3 and is incorporated herein by reference and is also available on EDGAR at www.sec.gov and SEDAR at www.sedar.com.
CAUTION CONCERNING FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS
This document, which includes the information set forth in the exhibits hereto, contains statements that constitute “forward-looking information” within the meaning of applicable securities laws in each of the provinces and territories of Canada and the respective policies, regulations and rules under such laws and/or “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the U.S. Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 (collectively, “forward-looking information”). The words “anticipates”, “believes”, “budget”, “could”, “estimates”, “expects”, “forecasts”, “intends”, “may”, “might”, “plans”, “projects”, “schedule”, “should”, “will”, “would”, “aims,” “seeks”, strives” (and grammatical variations of such terms) and similar expressions are often intended to identify forward-looking information, although not all forward-looking information contains these identifying words. The forward-looking information contained herein is subject to risks, uncertainties and other factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from historical results or results anticipated by the forward-looking information.
The sections entitled “Caution Concerning Forward-Looking Statements and Forward-Looking Information” set forth in each of Exhibits 99.1 and 99.3 hereto are incorporated by reference herein. You should carefully review such information for examples of specific forward-looking information included and incorporated in this document, for examples of factors or assumptions reflected in the forward-looking information and for a summary of risks, uncertainties and other factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from historical or anticipated results.
Forward-looking information contained herein (including any financial outlook) is provided for the purposes of assisting the reader in understanding the Company and its business, operations, risks, financial performance, financial position and cash flows as at and for the periods indicated and to present information about management’s current expectations and plans relating to the future and the reader is cautioned that such information may not be appropriate for other purposes. Forward-looking information contained herein is made as of the date of this document and based on the plans, beliefs, estimates, projections, expectations, opinions and assumptions of management on the date hereof. There can be no assurance that forward-looking information will prove to be accurate, as actual results and future events could differ materially from those anticipated in such forward-looking information. Accordingly, readers should not place undue reliance on forward-looking information. While subsequent events and developments may cause the Company’s views to change, the Company disclaims any obligation to update any forward-looking information or to explain any material difference between subsequent actual events and such forward-looking information, except to the extent required by applicable law.

The required disclosure for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022 is filed as Exhibit 101 to this annual report on Form 40-F.
MINE SAFETY DISCLOSURE
Not applicable.
COMPARISON OF NYSE CORPORATE GOVERNANCE RULES
AQN is subject to corporate governance requirements prescribed under applicable Canadian corporate governance practices, including the rules of the Toronto Stock Exchange (“Canadian Rules”). AQN is also subject to corporate governance requirements prescribed by the listing standards of the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) Stock Market, and certain rules and regulations promulgated by the SEC under the Exchange Act (including those applicable rules and regulations mandated by the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002). In particular, Section 303A.00 of the NYSE Listed Company Manual requires AQN to have an audit committee that meets the requirements of Rule 10A-3 of the Exchange Act, and Section 303A.011 of the NYSE Listed Company Manual requires AQN to disclose
any significant ways in which its corporate governance practices differ from those followed by U.S. companies listed on the NYSE. A description of those differences follows.
Section 303A.01 of the NYSE Listed Company Manual requires that boards have a majority of independent directors and Section 303A.02 defines independence standards for directors. AQN’s board of directors is responsible for determining whether or not each director is independent. In making this determination, the board of directors has adopted the higher standard of “independence” that applies to each member of its audit committee pursuant to Canadian National Instrument 52-110 Audit Committees and Rule 10A-3 of the Exchange Act instead of the definition of independence set forth in the NYSE rules. In applying this Canadian standard, the board of directors considers all relationships of its directors, including business, family and other relationships. Through this process, AQN’s board of directors also determines whether each member of its audit committee is independent pursuant to Canadian National Instrument 52-110 Audit Committees and Rule 10A-3 of the Exchange Act.
Section 303A.04(a) of the NYSE Listed Company Manual requires that all members of the nominating/corporate governance committee be independent as defined in the NYSE rules. In making this determination, the board of directors has adopted the standard of “independence” applicable to members of its audit committee, described in the preceding paragraph, rather than the NYSE rules.
Section 303A.05(a) of the NYSE Listed Company Manual requires that all members of the compensation committee be independent as defined in the NYSE rules. In making this determination, the board of directors has adopted the standard of “independence” applicable to members of its audit committee, described above, rather than the NYSE rules.
Section 303A.07(b)(iii)(A) of the NYSE Listed Company Manual requires, among other things, that the written charter of the audit committee state that the audit committee at least annually, obtain and review a report by the independent auditor describing the firm’s internal quality-control procedures, any material issues raised by the most recent internal quality-control review, or peer review, of the firm, or by any inquiry or investigation by governmental or professional authorities, within the preceding five years, respecting one or more independent audits carried out by the firm, and any steps taken to deal with any such issues. The written charter of the audit committee complies with Canadian Rules, but does not explicitly state that these functions are part of the purpose of the audit committee, which is not required by Canadian Rules.
Section 303A.08 of the NYSE Listed Company Manual requires that shareholders of a listed company be given the opportunity to vote on all equity compensation plans and material revisions thereto. AQN complies with Canadian Rules, which generally require that shareholders approve equity compensation plans. However, the Canadian Rules are not identical to the NYSE Rules. For example, Canadian Rules require shareholder approval of equity compensation plans only when such plans involve the issuance or potential issuance of newly issued securities. In addition, equity compensation plans that do not provide for a fixed maximum number of securities to be issued must have a rolling maximum number of securities to be issued, based on a fixed percentage of the issuer’s outstanding securities and must also be approved by shareholders every three years. If a plan provides a procedure for its amendment, Canadian Rules require shareholder approval of amendments only where the amendment involves a reduction in the exercise price or purchase price, or an extension of the term of an award benefiting an insider, the removal or exceeding of the insider participation limit prescribed by the Canadian Rules, an increase to the maximum number of securities issuable, or is an amendment to the amending provision itself.
Section 303A.09 of the NYSE Listed Company Manual requires that listed companies adopt and disclose corporate governance guidelines that address certain topics, including director compensation guidelines. AQN has adopted its Board Mandate, which is the equivalent of corporate governance guidelines, in compliance with the Canadian Rules.
AQN’s corporate governance guidelines do not address director compensation, but AQN provides disclosure about the decision making process for non-employee director compensation in the annual management information circular and AQN has adopted equity ownership guidelines for non-employee directors.
Section 303A.10 of the NYSE Listed Company Manual requires that a listed company’s code of business conduct and ethics mandate that any waiver of the code for executive officers or directors may be made only by the board or a board committee and must be promptly disclosed to shareholders. AQN’s code of business conduct and ethics complies with Canadian Rules. Waivers must receive prior approval by the board and will be disclosed promptly in accordance with applicable securities laws and AQN’s disclosure policy.
Section 312 of the NYSE Listed Company Manual requires that a listed company obtain shareholder approval prior to the issuance of securities in connection with the establishment or amendment of certain equity compensation plans, issuances of securities to related parties, the issuance of 20% or greater of shares outstanding or voting power
and issuances that will result in a change in control. AQN has elected to follow the Canadian Rules for shareholder approval of new issuances of its common shares instead of the NYSE shareholder approval rules. Under the Canadian Rules, shareholder approval is required for certain issuances of shares that (i) materially affect control of AQN or (ii) provide consideration to insiders in aggregate of 10% or greater of the market capitalization of the listed issuer and have not been negotiated at arm’s length. Shareholder approval is also required, pursuant to the Canadian Rules, in the case of private placements (x) for an aggregate number of listed securities issuable greater than 25% of the number of securities of the listed issuer which are outstanding, on a non-diluted basis, prior to the date of closing of the transaction if the price per security is less than the market price or (y) that during any six month period are to insiders for listed securities or options, rights or other entitlements to listed securities greater than 10% of the number of securities of the listed issuer which are outstanding, on a non-diluted basis, prior to the date of the closing of the first private placement to an insider during the six month period.
In addition to the foregoing, the Company may from time-to-time seek relief from the NYSE corporate governance requirements on specific transactions under the NYSE Listed Company Guide, in which case, the Company expects to make the disclosure of such transactions available on the Company’s website at www.algonquinpowerandutilities.com. Information contained on the Company’s website is not part of this annual report on Form 40-F.
UNDERTAKING
AQN undertakes to make available, in person or by telephone, representatives to respond to inquiries made by the SEC staff, and to furnish promptly, when requested to do so by the SEC staff, information relating to the securities in relation to which the obligation to file an annual report on Form 40-F arises or transactions in said securities.
CONSENT TO SERVICE OF PROCESS
