OTHER EVENTS

RGC Midstream, LLC (“Midstream”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of RGC Resources, Inc. (the “Company”), is an approximate 1% equity investment owner in the Mountain Valley Pipeline, LLC (the “LLC”). The LLC is constructing an approximate 303 mile natural gas interstate pipeline extending from northwestern West Virginia to southern Virginia (“MVP”). On June 3, 2023, the operator of the MVP issued a news release noting the enactment of Federal legislation to raise the U.S. debt limit, which legislation also contained requirements providing for the MVP project to proceed. In respect of the MVP, the legislation, among other things, declares the completion of construction and operation of the MVP to be in the U.S. national interest and ratifies and approves all permits and authorizations necessary for the construction and initial operation of the MVP and directs applicable federal officials and agencies to maintain such authorizations. Given the legislation, and assuming timely issuance of the few remaining authorizations, the operator of MVP communicated that it intends to work with its project partners to complete construction of the MVP by year-end 2023, at an estimated total project cost of approximately $6.6 billion. A copy of the news release can be accessed at the following link: Equitrans Midstream Corporation News Release, dated June 3, 2023.
