In the event of changes in market prices or a downgrade in Avista Corp.'s credit ratings (including maintaining "investment grade" credit rating) or other established credit criteria, or, in some cases, if the counterparty has reasonable grounds to believe that there has been a material change in Avista Corp.'s creditworthiness, additional collateral may be required. Counterparties could request immediate payment or demand immediate and ongoing collateralization on derivative instruments in net liability positions.

In periods of price volatility, the level of exposure can change significantly. In addition, these contracts contain customary events of default (including cross-defaults to indebtedness and other obligations) and termination provisions. As a result, sudden and significant demands may be made against Avista Corp.'s credit facilities and cash. See Note 9 for further discussion of these credit facilities, including the immediate reimbursement obligation associated with outstanding letters of credit.

The following table presents the aggregate fair value of energy commodity derivative instruments with credit-risk-related contingent features in a liability position, and the amount of additional collateral (in cash or letters of credit) Avista Corp. could be required to post as of June 30, 2026 (dollars in millions):
