First independently owned and operated U.S. electricity transmission company. First independently owned and operated U.S. electricity transmission company. —In June 2001, ITCTransmission was split from Detroit Edison and became a separate legal entity under DTE Energy. —In February 2003, ITCTransmission became independent through acquisition by ITC Holdings Corp. —On July 26, 2005, ITCTransmission’s parent company, ITC Holdings Corp., became a publicly traded company – “ITC” on the NYSE. We Serve as the Conduit Between Generation and End-Use Customers

8. 8 Transmission is Our Only Business ITCTransmission focuses on ownership, operation, maintenance, and construction of transmission facilities as a single line of business.

Transmission enables competition within more costly segments, especially generation. —Competition can reduce costs on the supply side. —Congestion attributable to inadequate capacity can be very expensive and impact environment when efficient generation cannot be used. —Failures, when local, affect much more load and/or industry —Cascading failures are extremely costly. Because of our singular business focus, we are aligned with customers. Because of our singular business focus, we are aligned with customers.

11. 11 Industry Background Estimated costs from August 2003 blackout: $4 - $10 billion Estimated annual lost production costs to U.S. businesses: — —$46 billion in power outages — —$6.7 billion in power quality issues Estimated investment required to modernize the grid: $50 - $100 Billion Outage Costs Transmission investment has lagged while the transmission system continues to be put under increasing stress. Demand Growth Growth in electricity consumption Annual demand has doubled since 1980 Underinvestment Decline in transmission investment From 1975-2000, transmission investment has fallen by $2.5 billion per year Sources: (1) Edison Electric Institute ( EEI) 2000; figures are quoted in 1997 dollars.
