Item 9B. OTHER INFORMATION

Director and Officer Trading Arrangements

Except as described below, during the three months ended December 31, 2024, no director or officer of the Company adopted, terminated or modified a Rule 10b5-1 trading arrangement or non-Rule 10b5-1 trading arrangement, as each term is defined in Item 408(a) of Regulation S-K.

During the three months ended September 30, 2024, Alex Glenn, Senior Vice President and Chief Executive Officer, Duke Energy Florida and Midwest, adopted a 10b5-1 trading arrangement for the sale of up to 15,002 shares of the Company's common stock between November 15, 2024, and November 17, 2025, or such earlier date such plan is terminated sooner pursuant to the terms specified therein, including but not limited to the execution of all trades specified therein. Such plan terminated upon the sale of all shares available under the plan, which transaction was timely reported on a Form 4 filed with the Commission on November 18, 2024. Mr. Glenn's 10b5-1 trading arrangement was entered into during an open insider trading window and is intended to satisfy the alternative defense of Rule 10b5-1 under the Exchange Act and the Company's policies regarding insider transactions.
