Investor Presentation
Fourth-Quarter 2024
Forward-Looking Statements & Non-GAAP Financial Measures Disclosure
- This presentation contains forward-looking statements, including, in particular, statements about the performance, plans, strategies and objectives for future operations of Plains All American Pipeline, L.P. ("PAA") and Plains GP Holdings, L.P. ("PAGP"). These forward-looking statements are based on PAA's current views with respect to future events, based on what we believe to be reasonable assumptions. PAA and PAGP can give no assurance that future results or outcomes will be achieved. Important factors, some of which may be beyond PAA's and PAGP's control, that could cause actual results or outcomes to differ materially from the results or outcomes anticipated in the forward-looking statements are disclosed in PAA's and PAGP's respective filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
- This presentation also contains non-GAAP financial measures relating to PAA, such as Adjusted EBITDA attributable to PAA, Implied DCF and Adjusted Free Cash Flow measures. A reconciliation of these historical measures to the most directly comparable GAAP measures is available in the Investor Relations section of PAA's and PAGP's website at www.plains.com, select "PAA" or "PAGP," navigate to the "Financial Information" tab, then click on "Non-GAAP Reconciliations." PAA does not provide a reconciliation of non-GAAP financial measures to the equivalent GAAP financial measures on a forward-looking basis as it is impractical to forecast certain items that it has defined as "Selected Items Impacting Comparability" without unreasonable effort. Definitions for certain non-GAAP financial measures and other terms used throughout this presentation are included in the appendix.

- US qualified business income currently eligible for 20% rate reduction
Foreign Tax
Credit Benefits
- PAA's Canadian subsidiary pays provincial & federal taxes
- Unitholders can generally use Foreign tax credit against US federal income tax
Tax Deferred
Return of Capital

- After-taxcash flow(1) expected to be ~90% of distributions over +/- 10-years
Estate Planning
Advantages
- The transfer of MLP units to beneficiaries upon death does not trigger a taxable event
