plan accordingly. When these levels are reached, an Air Quality Health Advisory will be issued. Health Advisories are notifications that levels of ozone have reached unhealthy levels. They are based on near real time monitoring values.<u></u><u></u></span></p>

<p><span style="line-height:120%;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif";font-size:10pt">Persons with lung or heart disease should be aware that increased pollution may cause them to experience adverse health effects. Ozone affects people
differently. Unhealthy levels of ozone can cause throat irritation, coughing, chest pain, shortness of breath, increased susceptibility to respiratory infection and aggravation of asthma and other respiratory ailments. These symptoms are worsened by exercise
and heavy activity. Learn your limits. Children, older adults and people with underlying lung diseases, such as asthma, are at particular risk of suffering from these effects. As ozone levels increase, the number of people affected and the severity of the
health effects also increase.</span><span style="line-height:120%;font-size:10pt"><u></u><u></u></span></p>
