Facility Improvement
Measures Description
This section addresses the Facility Improvement Measures (FIMs) recommended for implementation. The FIMs were developed using custom spreadsheet analysis, building modeling software, trend data, and engineering calculations. Energy using equipment was measured or trended to determine power consumption (kW). Weather data was obtained from Typical Meteorological Year (TMY3) data which is an average of the last 30 years of weather data. Billing information was supplied by the City.

Projects are recommended based on cost savings, energy reduction, project cost, simple payback period, age of existing equipment, environmental impact, and the needs of the City. The FIMs analyzed and recommended for implementation are covered in detail in the following sections. All new work directly associated with the recommended FIMs will be in accordance with applicable codes, specifications, and standards. However, the intent is not to correct or address code, specification, or standard deficiencies inherent in existing equipment, fixtures, or installations, which are considered outside the scope of the measures.

FIM 1: Interior and Exterior Lighting
Facilities Included
 City Hall | Library | Bedwell Hall | Cudahy Park
 Clara Street Park | Community Center | Clara Expansion Park  Public Works | Lugo Park
Present Conditions
The facilities utilize a variety of lighting technologies, including T12, T8 and CFL. See Existing Conditions Section for room-by-room. The Siemens lighting audit and design team surveyed the facilities and developed a comprehensive plan for a lighting retrofit to utilize efficient lighting technologies to provide appropriate levels for each of the different facility room types and exterior environments. See the contract documents for the detailed lighting audit.

Recommend Facility Improvement Measure
Replace the existing fluorescents, compact fluorescents, and metal halides with a combination of LED retrofit kit, door frame kits and new fixtures. These lighting upgrades will significantly reduce electricity usage and associated costs, standardize lamps and ballasts for the buildings, and enhance the lighting levels throughout the facilities.

Furthermore, maintenance will be reduced by having long lasting LED technology. Any existing incandescent and fluorescent exit signs will be replaced with LED exit signs that use a fraction of the energy and have lamps that last considerably longer.

Siemens also investigated the Enlighted Connect solution during the IGA. Enlighted is an advanced lighting controls system. Below is a list of benefits this system provides.

Siemens discovered this system is not required to meet Title 24 for the City facilities as the light power density (LPD) for each facility is less than 80% of the allowed LPD per Title 24 2019. Standard lighting controls will be included, this includes occupancy sensors and wall switches.

Enlighted Benefits
Sensors on every fixture. Web-based access to historical lighting and energy data.

User programmable options for dimminglevels, scheduling, fixture tuning, and timeout durations.

The ability to adjust lighting controls remotely
via the Energy Manager.

Detailed scheduling (4 time zones per day) for
different types of spaces.

Gateways on each floor, or one per roughly
100 fixtures/150 ft. radius.

Task tuning and high-end trimming
capabilities.

One physical Energy Manager per building, or
a virtual Energy Manager in the cloud.

Daylighting at the fixture level, or controlling
groups based on a single sensor, or sensor
averages.

The ability to pull energy and occupancy data
into a BMS system using BACnet (License fee
required).

Building exterior lighting, park lighting and building parking lots will also be included, except for the sports lighting at Cudahy Park and Lugo Park. Cudahy Park and Lugo Park are excluded as the existing fixtures contain fairly new LED fixtures. High pressure sodium and metal halide lamps will be replaced with LED. Due to safety concerns exterior lighting will continue using time clock. Siemens shall replace existing mechanical time clocks to digital time clocks.

Savings Calculations:

Energy savings from each retrofit will be based on a statistically developed number of runtime hours for specific area types and the areas wattage reduction. The pre-retrofit wattages were derived from measured data collected from a statistically valid sampling of various lamp and ballast combinations, representing at least 70% of the baseline connected lighting load. Annual dollar savings from each area retrofit will be calculated using the formulas listed below in conjunction with the utility rates described in Section

3. Lighting Power Saved (kW) = Existing Power (kW) - Retrofit Power (kW) Energy Saved (kWh) = Power Saved (kW) × Run Hrs.

Annual Savings ($) = [Energy Saved (kWh) × Elec Rate ($/kWh)] + [Lighting Power Saved (kW) × Diversity Factor × Elec Rate ($/kW) ×12]
Definition of Variables:

Retrofit Power (kW): Manufacturer’s Fixture Wattage
Existing Power (kW): Measured Fixture Wattage Derived From Statistically Valid Sample
Diversity Factor: Estimated Percentage of Lighting Power Contributing to Monthly Peak Demand

FIM 2: City Owned Street Lighting
Facilities Included
City Wide
Present Conditions
Throughout the City of Cudahy, there are two basic types of streetlight fixtures, SCE poles and City owned poles. The SCE poles are wooden poles identified with a pole number starting with E or H, except for Atlantic Avenue, where the SCE poles are concrete poles.

The City owned poles are concrete gray poles. Majority of the fixtures are cobra head fixtures that contain high pressure sodium lamps of varying wattages. Once under contract, Siemens’ lighting audit and design team will survey the streetlights and develop a comprehensive plan for a lighting retrofit to utilize efficient lighting technologies to provide appropriate levels for each of the light locations. Lighting controls are by photocell.

Recommended Facility Improvement Measure
Retrofit existing City owned street lighting fixtures with an LED technology. Cobra head fixtures will be replaced with a new LED fixture. Decorative fixtures will be converted to LED with a retrofit kit, reusing the existing fixture housing. Siemens has also included replacement of fuses and re-labeling the poles. The labels shall have a blue background with reflective gray color for letters and numbers. The letter “C” will be included before the 3-digit number. Example: C000, C001, C002, etc.

These lighting upgrades will significantly reduce electricity usage and associated costs; standardize lamps and ballasts for the streetlights. Furthermore, maintenance will be reduced by having new lamps and ballasts, and by stocking the same types of lamps and ballasts for all the City owned streetlights.

Assumptions
The street lighting tariff uses a utility-determined monthly energy usage, based on lamp type, to calculate the electrical costs. Thus, the baseline is independent of the actual lamp operation.

Street Lighting Existing and Proposed Annual Consumption Existing Fixtures Retrofit Fixtures

FIM 3: Solar
Facilities Included
City Hall | Community Center | Public Works
Recommended Facility Improvement Measure
PV systems generate power when sunlight hits the solar panels. This power generation does not always coincide with the load profile of the building, so solar arrays generally must take advantage of net-metering policies to achieve the greatest benefit from their solar output. Under a net metering agreement, any power produced by the PV system that cannot be used at the building flows back to the utility grid. This excess power is metered, and the value is utilized to offset the cost of power provided from the utility company when the PV system is not producing power. In this way, the City receives the greatest benefit from the power produced by the system.

Siemens has evaluated the City facilities for their viability as host sites for a solar photovoltaic (PV) system to provide clean renewable energy for the buildings. We analyzed the potential project from a technical standpoint and have concluded that a netmetered solar array is viable at the City Hall, Community Center/Clara Park, and Public Works, pending City permitting and interconnection approval from the local electric utility, Southern California Edison.

Below is a summary table of the system sizes that are technically viable.

Site System Type System Size (kWdc)
City Hall Carport Carport 58 kWdc
Community Center/Clara Roof Ballasted 58 kWdc
Public Works/Lugo Park Roof Ballasted 35 kWdc

Savings Calculations
 Siemens uses the Helioscope solar modeling tool to estimate the electricity production and performance of solar projects. Helioscope is the solar industry's leading software program for the calculation of energy generation potential from solar PV installations. The software includes a detailed and comprehensive library of solar panels and inverters that enable modeling of various system configurations. Siemens incorporated specific product performance metrics for the make and model of the inverters and panels used in our design as part of the production analysis. System details, including string sizes, line losses, module mismatch losses and inter-row shading are considered and results are rigorously checked for accuracy.
 The following table outlines the performance estimates:

Site System Size
(kWdc)
Production kWh/yr.
(Includes 95% Safety Factor)
City Hall Carport 57.5 kWdc 76,453 kWh
Community Center/Clara 42 kWdc 65,276 kWh
Public Works/Lugo Park 26.7 kWdc 42,207 kWh
 Solar photovoltaic arrays produce electrical energy based on location, orientation, and annual insolation. The following calculations are used to determine annual savings:

Facilities Included
City Hall/Library | Community Center | Public Works
Present Conditions
The existing roofing systems at the Community Center/Clara Park and Public Works/Lugo Park are flat, the City Hall/Library is a pitched roof. All the roofing systems are past the end of their useful lives. Leaks are developing and various repairs had to be made during the past few years, creating an annual burden on the City’s budget resources.

Page 57 of 99 ends

Recommended Facility Improvement Measure
Siemens recommends replacing the roofs with PVC roofing material. This will not only minimize heating and cooling energy losses, but also ensure that the structure is safe and free from leaks. The new roof will have a useful life of 20 - 30 years with 20-year manufacture warranty. Also included in the scope is 25% plywood and fascia board replacement. This is an allowance as Siemens cannot determine exactly how much plywood is damaged.

The skylight systems for these buildings have also deteriorated and are leaking. Some areas are covered with tarp to protect the building from leaks. Siemens highly recommends replacing the skylights or, at minimum, cleaning and re-sealing the skylights. The costs for skylight maintenance or repair are not included in the scope of work presented in this report.

Longevity and Sustainability
 Replacing the roof will improve the integrity of the building envelope by restoring its thermal and vapor resistance as well as the reflective solar heat gain resistance.
 Expensive repairs will be avoided for years to come.
 The risk of mold and mildew growth in the under-roof cavities and the possibility of indoor air quality problems will be considerably reduced.

FIM 5: Mechanical and Controls
Facilities Included
City Hall/Library | Bedwell Hall | Community Center | Public Works Present Conditions
The City has several standalone package units and split systems serving the facilities. All these systems are in poor condition and have surpassed the end of their useful life. These HVAC systems are each controlled by dedicated thermostats (T-stats). The units cycle on and off maintaining a fixed temperature set point. Over time, this equipment experiences wear and tear that affect its overall performance and efficiency.

Recommended Facility Improvement Measure
Siemens recommends replacing the existing package units and split systems as noted in the table below. As these units are at the end of life, there are significant improvements in efficiencies to be seen.

There are two ways to measure efficiency for packaged and split systems, SEER and EER.

The efficiency of air conditioners is often rated by the seasonal energy efficiency ratio (SEER) which is defined by the Air Conditioning, Heating, and Refrigeration Institute in its standard AHRI 210/240. A room air conditioner’s efficiency is measured by the energy efficiency ratio (EER). The EER is the ratio of the cooling capacity (in British thermal units (BTU) per hour) to the power input (in watts). The higher the EER rating, the more efficient the unit.

Existing efficiencies are estimated to be 8.9-11 EER or 13 SEER. Proposed efficiencies are estimated to be 12.7 to 22.5 SEER.

FIM 6: Transformer Upgrades
Facilities Included
City Hall | Library | Bedwell Hall
Present Conditions
There are four (4) older style transformer units at the City Hall and Bedwell Hall that are operating at a small fraction of their nameplate capacity, resulting in very low efficiency, and are producing large amounts of excess heat, resulting in energy losses and higher utility costs. See table below for more detail. These units are also old and at their end of life. Electrical distribution transformers play a key role in delivering electrical power to buildings as all the electrical power supplied to the building flows through them.

Whether equipment is plugged in and turned on or not transformers continue to operate and use energy.

Recommended Facility Improvement Measure
Siemens proposes to install new E-Saver OPAL-R Series Power Smiths transformers to replace the old inefficient transformers. The OPAL-R Series are ultra-efficient dry-type isolation transformers optimized to maximize energy savings and provide the fastest payback in retrofit applications.

Code and all published data are based on performance at a 35% linear load. Therefore, almost all transformers are designed for highest efficiency under that load profile.

However, this profile does not typically exist in the real world. Linear loads ceased to exist with the advent of computers and VFDs, and the average load on a transformer is about 15% (we have found it is even lower than this). Under this lower load profile, almost all losses are found in the core.

Using design and manufacturing advances, but more importantly, better materials (i.e. higher grade insulation, copper, aluminum and, most critically, steel in the core), new OPAL-R transformers have extremely low no-load-losses and minimized load-losses.

Savings Calculations
Savings are based on unit runtime and loads. The following calculations are used to determine annual savings:

Future Facility
Improvement Measures
This Section addresses the FIMs that were not included in the current project but are recommended for the next phase.

FIM 1: Electric Vehicle Charging Stations
Siemens recommends EV charging stations for the City as they support better environmental factors, including air quality, health and safety, and greenhouse gas reduction. Due to financial restrains this measure was not included in this phase.

Today, there are already more than one million electric vehicles on the road in the U.S. - a number that is expected to surge to about 18 million by 2030 - helping us achieve a cleaner, more efficient world. In fact, more than 900 U.S. corporations and many communities have committed to reducing their overall carbon footprint and energy costs with smart technology - including electric vehicle (EV) fleets.

But charging electric vehicles must become as easy and convenient as refueling traditional vehicles, making intelligent EV charging infrastructure an essential feature of your smart building strategy. Siemens VersiCharge electric vehicle chargers provide reliable and fast EV charging with compact designs and custom installations.

FIM 2: Air-Conditioned Space for Gym at the Community Center Currently there are five (5) Reznor fan blowers serving the Gym at the Community Center. During the summer, the space temperature rises as there is no air conditioning.

Siemens recommends adding air conditioning to the Gym. This will require a re-design of the building and its systems, including potential structural upgrades. Due to financial restrains this measure was not included in this phase.

FIM 3: SCE Street Light Acquisition
Description:

Siemens has included replacing existing City owned street lighting but did not include the acquisition for the remaining street lighting owned by Southern California Edison (SCE). The advantages of acquiring and converting the streetlights are:

1. The City’s ownership of the streetlights allows the City to convert the lights to LED and thus provide for better lighting conditions in the community and;

2. The City’s electrical costs for the lighting is drastically reduced.

FIM 4: Sports Field Lighting at Cudahy Park
Description:

The City recently replaced the Sports Field Lighting at the Cudahy Park with LED.

Unfortunately, the light levels are too low and there are several complaints from City residences who use this field to play baseball. Siemens recommends performing photometric study and upgrading the lights to higher wattage LED.

FIM 5: Skylight Replacement at the City Hall and Bedwell Hall Description:

Siemens recommends replacing the existing skylights at the City Hall and Bedwell Hall.

These skylights are leaking and cracked. Siemens recommends replacing these skylights with new and improved skylights that fit the City’s needs, such as natural light, energy savings and health benefits.

Measurement & Verification
(M&V)
Measurement & Verification Methodology
Siemens has developed, as part of the IGA, a comprehensive plan for measurement and verification of savings for each of the recommended FIMs. These FIM M&V plans may be combined based on the specific FIM included in this project. The M&V plan for a project provides continuous visibility of project performance and identifies additional potential savings opportunities when they exist.

In all cases, Siemens follows the International Performance Measurement and Verification Protocol (IPMVP, 2017), Federal Energy Management Program’s (FEMP’s) M&V Guidelines (Version 4.0), and the American Society of Heating, Refrigerating and Air-Conditioning Engineers (ASHRAE) Guideline 14. The table below describes each of the IPMVP,2017 and FEMP’s accepted methodologies.

M&V Option How Savings Are Calculated Typical Applications A. Retrofit Isolation: Key
Parameter Measurement
Savings are determined by
field measurement of the key
performance parameter(s)
which define energy use of
the system(s), separate from
the energy use of the facility.

Measurements may either be
short-term (A1) or
continuous (A2).

Engineering calculations using
short-term or continuous postretrofit measurements and stipulations.

Lighting retrofit where power draw
is measured periodically.

B. Retrofit Isolation: All
Parameter Measurement
Savings are determined by
field measurement of the
energy use of the systems to
which the FIM was applied,
separate from the energy use
of the rest of the facility.

Short-term or continuous
measurements are taken
throughout the post-retrofit
period.

Engineering calculations using
short-term or continuous
measurement.

Application of controls to vary the
load on a constant speed pump
using a variable speed drive.

Electricity is measured by a kWh
meter installed on the electrical
supply to the pump motor. In the
base year, this meter is in place for a
week to verify constant loading. The
meter is in place throughout the
post-retrofit period to track
variations in energy use.

C. Whole Facility
Savings are determined by
measuring energy use at the
whole facility level. Shortterm or continuous
measurements are taken
throughout the post-retrofit
period.

Analysis of whole facility utility
meter or submeter data using
techniques from simple
comparison to regression
analysis.

Multifaceted energy management
program affecting many systems in a
building. Energy use is measured by
the gas and electric utility meters for
a 12-month base year period and
throughout the post-retrofit period.

Page 71 of 99 ends

M&V Option How Savings Are Calculated Typical Applications D. Calibrated Simulation
Savings are determined
through simulation of the
energy use of components or
the whole facility. Simulation
routines must be
demonstrated to adequately
model actual performance
measured in the facility. This
option usually requires skill in
calibration simulation.

Energy use simulation,
calibrated with hourly or
monthly utility billing data
and/or end use submetering.

Multifaceted energy management
program affecting many systems in a
building but where no baseline data
are available. Post-retrofit period
energy use is measured by the gas
and electric utility meters. Base year
energy use is determined by
simulation using a model calibrated
by the post-retrofit period.

In addition, Siemens defines an Option E, Stipulated Savings, for those FIM savings having too little basis to justify using one of the other options or where the cost of using one of the other options is not justified for the magnitude of savings involved. For these FIMs, calculations are performed using agreed upon measurements and assumptions to determine the savings to be credited to the FIM each year.

Options A and B are the most widely used approaches to calculate and verify savings guarantees because they tend to be the best combination of both accuracy and economy for many FIMs. However, the specific characteristics of each FIM, including the savings calculation methodology used for the FIMs, are selected based on the accuracy and cost of each specific FIM and the needs/preferences of the customer determine the specific methodology used for each FIM.

The following M&V options are planned for the FIMs proposed:

Measure Description M&V Option
Lighting Retrofit A
Street Lighting A
Solar PV B
HVAC A
Transformers E
During the project development and prior to contract, Siemens worked with the City to develop an M&V strategy that matches the appropriate level of monitoring, reporting, visibility, analysis, and documentation. The next section includes the detailed plan of the Measurement and Verification, also described in Exhibit C of the contract documents.

Measurement & Verification
(M&V) Plan
General Overview
The purpose of the Measurement and Verification (M&V) Plan is to identify the methods, measurements, procedures and tools that will be used to verify the savings for each FIM which has energy/utility savings. Savings are determined by comparing prior usage, consumption or efficiencies (defined as the “Baseline”) against the post-FIM implementation usage, consumption or efficiencies. The baseline usage, consumption or efficiencies are described in this Exhibit C, Article 5. The post-FIM implementation usage, consumption or efficiencies is defined as the contracted baseline and are described in this Exhibit C, Article 7.

Option A - Retrofit Isolation: Key Parameter Measurement Lighting Upgrade
Location(s):

City Hall/ Library, Bedwell Hall, Cudahy Park, Clara Street Park/Community Center/Sports Complex, Clare Expansion Park and Public Works/Lugo Park Overview:

SIEMENS will retrofit the existing fixtures, lamps, and/or ballasts with more energy-efficient fixtures, lamps, and/or ballasts. SIEMENS will also install occupancy sensor controls in selected locations as per Appendix 1. Verification of electric energy savings (kWh) achieved by the lighting retrofit shall be based upon a one-time measurement of the lighting power capacity under existing conditions, a one-time measurement of the lighting power capacity upon completion of the lighting retrofit project and agreed-upon annual operating hours. Spot wattage measurements of a random sample of baseline and postinstallation fixture types or fixture circuits will be used to establish demand.

Sample size for wattage measurements will be determined based on FEMP guidelines for sample size determination, with overall population sample size not to exceed 10% of the retrofit population.

HVAC Upgrades
Location(s):

City Hall/Library, Bedwell Hall, Community Center/Clare Street Park, Public Works/Lugo Park
Overview:

Energy and cost savings will be achieved by replacing the existing HVAC systems with higher efficiency and/or lower capacity systems. Electrical energy (kWh) savings will be verified by comparing the efficiency (SEER/EER) of the pre-retrofit equipment against the efficiency (SEER/EER) of the post-retrofit equipment, based on manufacturer specifications for the installed equipment. Thermal energy (Therms) savings will be verified by comparing the heating capacity (BTUs) of the pre-retrofit equipment against the heating capacity (BTUs) of the post-retrofit equipment.

Option B - Retrofit Isolation: All Parameter Measurement Solar Photovoltaic
Location(s):

City Hall, Community Center/Clare Street Park and Public Works/Lugo Park Description:

Electrical energy savings will be achieved by the production of electricity by the solar photovoltaic panels. Verification of these energy savings will be based on 15-minute trend intervals of actual electricity production (kWh) and solar insolation (kWh/m2).

There may be changes in the production of electricity for which a calculated adjustment is necessary. Actual production will be adjusted to reflect the average sunlight conditions used to establish the guarantee based on the overall efficiency with which sunlight is converted to electricity by the installed system. This conversion efficiency is known as the performance ratio and will be determined based on the contracted rated system power capacity (kW-dc) and continuous monitoring of generated electricity (kWh) and solar insolation (kWh/m2). Actual production is adjusted to average sunlight conditions because the power capacity of the installed array is guaranteed although availability of sunlight is not.

If Siemens is unable to obtain solar insolation (kWh/m2) data through the data acquisition system, Siemens reserves the right to utilize global horizontal irradiance data from Solargis (or equivalent) and convert it to plane of array to determine the adjusted actual production.

If the maintenance for the photovoltaic system, as established in Article 4 of Exhibit A, is terminated by the CLIENT, the guaranteed savings for this FIM will be deemed achieved.

The guaranteed savings for this FIM assumes SCE will, no later than completion of the FIM, approve the rate switch for the Public Works main meter, noted under 6.1.1B in Article 6.

EAdj = PRact * GEXP * P

7 COMPANY BIOGRAPHY
Siemens has a long history of implementing energy projects that provide energy and operational savings as well as CO2 emissions reductions for our valued customers. In the last 15 years Siemens has managed, executed, and commissioned over 3,000 projects representing in excess of $3 billion in guaranteed savings. Additionally, Siemens has deployed over 1.6 GW of solar PV and supported microgrid projects in 16 countries.

Also, part of the Siemens “ecosystem”, Siemens established a new team, aimed to cover the end to end lifecycle of DER assets, from design to decommission, the Distributed Energy Systems (“DES”) team. This global and regional organization is structured to focus the capabilities and resources of Siemens on providing our customers the most advanced and comprehensive DES
solution set. Onsite power generation including Solar PV and cogeneration, energy storage and microgrid controls are the foundation for distributed energy. DES is the opportunity resulting from the shift away from a centralized to decentralized electrical grid. A wider uptake of DES can also deliver significant economic, social and environmental co-benefits through better system resilience and efficiency, including lower cost grid balancing, reduced greenhouse gas emissions and affordable extension of grids to unconnected communities.

Siemens DES approach is designed to be industry leading in both breadth and depth. In addition to our portfolio of technologies (as illustrated to the right) across generation, transmission, storage, control and optimization, Siemens provides the expertise to support our customers DES objectives by providing:
• Consulting services
• Project development
• Construction management
• Energy management
• Financing solutions (including energy savings performance contracting) • Asset ownership models (via solar PPA1 or generation DBOOM2 structures) • Operations and maintenance
• Asset Management
Our mission is simple: provide solutions that enable our customers to implement, run, and optimize distributed energy systems that meet their specific goals. We understand that every customer will have their unique set of challenges and objectives. We bring to the table expertise from across the energy spectrum to address these and provide a customized solution.
1 PPA – power purchase agreement 2 DBOOM – Siemens roles includes design, build, own, operate and maintain

Page 236 of 391 ends

8 Siemens will deploy a highly qualified and experienced “core” project team to service the three CUSTOMER Solar PV installations. Additionally, the Siemens team will engage, on an on-demand basis, local experts in Solar PV for quick response.

Having the benefit of talented staff, supported by unparalleled global resources, Siemens has the strongest talent pool within the industry and a minimal turnover record when compared to industry averages.

In addition to adequate staffing levels, our teams utilize company-supported platforms for systems, processes and procedures that are used in the development, implementation and management of projects. Since all teams use the same tools and processes, Siemens can support a project and maintain a consistent deliverable throughout the term of the project.

Siemens tenured professionals assigned to the project team will have provided expertise to numerous local and national projects. This team of business managers, engineers and project managers has implemented some of the most successful and innovative projects in the country.

Service Capabilities
Siemens has been providing Operation & Maintenance (O&M) services for solar power plants for more than 20 years. We have installed more than 1.6 GWs of PV globally. Siemens has hundreds of assets under management although we don’t keep a rolling tab on the exact number of systems or MWs because of the total breadth of the organization. In doing so, we have leveraged extensive corporate experience, infrastructure, and processing in serving a broad range of complex, conventional and renewable power plants globally. Our O&M solar services

Page 237 of 391 ends

9 experience has allowed us to develop maintenance friendly products, best matching solutions and diagnostic technologies that minimize plant downtimes and maximize energy yield.

Implementing an effective digital service
strategy around a solar PV installation is
critical to provide visibility into ongoing
performance, cost-efficiently operating and
maintaining the solar PV, and ensuring
performance outcomes for the stakeholders.

Siemens operates a digital service center in
Austin, TX is interconnected to our distributed energy projects, employs over 200 people, and monitors over 40,000 connections. Digitalization is foundational to our asset management approach supporting intelligent decision making and predictive, not reactive, maintenance practices. We work with our customers to design a custom suite of digital services that include monitoring, remote, and cloud-based analytical services designed to meet the individual objectives of each customer.

This asset management strategy will be supported by our local field service network, with in-house and 3rd party partners. This responsive workforce is:
• On-call 24/7 to respond immediately and help get your systems up and running • Fully-trained, certified specialists that safely maintain electrical systems and components • Knowledgeable of key standards including IEEE, ANSI, NEC and OSHA Remote Services

SERVICE SOLUTIONS
Inspection and General Maintenance Services
Siemens qualified technicians will provide on-site inspection and general maintenance services for all system components installed and commissioned as part of the Solar PV. This service includes annual on-site inspections for all components of the system and verification that all connections are secure and operational.

System inspections will be performed once in a 12-month period. Throughout the year, our technicians will be onsite or remotely connected to the system to monitor system uptime.

WARRANTY MANAGEMENT SERVICES
Siemens will facilitate the “return merchandise authorization” (RMA) process, on behalf of the asset owner, and coordinate replacement of the failed component with the replacement provided by the manufacturer. Costs associated with the administration of this process are included in the maintenance program, see Appendix B for additional services.

REMOTE MONITORING /TROUBLESHOOTING SERVICES
This service is done remotely using a monitoring software system and a 24/7 Remote Operations Center (ROC) located in Dallas, TX.

Normally, in Fault Management (Incident Management), several roles and support levels interact:
• With the help of monitoring of alarms the ROC detects a fault. SIEMENS shall be responsible for opening a “ticket” and coordinate the various actions of troubleshooting. SIEMENS will collect as much information and diagnostics as possible to establish initial documentation, categorize the issue and potentially resolve it remotely (for example, by rebooting the communication systems remotely). This represents 1st level Support. The incident is then tracked until resolved.
• If this doesn’t resolve the issue or the fault cannot be categorized with a predetermined resolution, the ROC agent may call a field technician. The agent will try to analyze and resolve the fault on-site. The agent may contact the failed component supplier’s hotline to help with the diagnosis. • If the resolution of an incident requires special expertise or access, ROC agent might need to contact experts (in-house, suppliers or third party’s experts). • When the fault is resolved, the ROC closes the ticket.

PREVENTATIVE MAINTENANCE SERVICES

10. INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY.

Siemens will, at its own option and expense, defend or settle any suit or proceeding brought against Buyer based on an allegation that any processes performed by Siemens in connection with the Services constitutes an infringement of any Patent Cooperation Treaty (“PCT”) country member’s patent or misappropriation of a third party’s trade secret or copyright in the country where the Buyer’s Site is located. Buyer will promptly give Siemens written notice of the suit or proceeding and the authority, information, and assistance needed to defend the claims. Siemens shall have full and exclusive authority to defend and settle such claim and will pay the damages and costs awarded against Siemens in any suit or proceeding so defended.

Buyer shall not make any admission(s) which might be prejudicial to Siemens and shall not enter into a settlement without Siemens’ consent. If and to the extent any process performed by Siemens in connection with the Services as a result of any suit or proceeding so defended is held to constitute infringement or its use by Buyer is enjoined, Siemens will, at its option and expense, either: (i) procure for Buyer the right to continue using said process; (ii) replace it with substantially equivalent non-infringing process; or (iii) modify the process so it’s use is non-infringing.

Siemens will have no duty or obligation under this Article 10 if the process is: (i) performed according to Buyer's design or instructions and compliance therewith has caused Siemens to deviate from its normal course of performance; (ii) modified by Buyer or its contractors after performance; or (iii) combined by Buyer or its contractors with devices, methods, systems or processes not furnished hereunder and by reason of said design, instruction, modification, or combination a suit is brought against Buyer. In addition, if by reason of such design, instruction, modification or combination, a suit or proceeding is brought against Siemens, Buyer must protect Siemens in the same manner and to the same extent that Siemens has agreed to protect Buyer under this Article 10.

THIS ARTICLE 10 IS AN EXCLUSIVE STATEMENT OF SIEMENS’ DUTIES AND BUYER’S REMEDIES RELATING TO PATENTS, TRADE SECRETS AND COPYRIGHTS, AND DIRECT OR CONTRIBUTORY INFRINGEMENT THEREOF.

11. CONFIDENTIALITY.
(a) Both during and after the term of this Agreement, the parties will treat as confidential all information obtained from the disclosing party and all information compiled or generated by the disclosing party under this Agreement for the receiving party, including but not limited to business information, the quotation, the Agreement, processes and procedures, knowhow, methods and techniques employed by Siemens in connection with the Services, technical data, drawings, flow charts, program listings, software code, and other software, plans and projections. Neither party may disclose or refer to the Services to be performed under this Agreement in any manner that identifies the other party without advance written permission. Except for security surveillance, the observing or recording of the Services or any part thereof, whether by photographic, video or audio devices or in any other manner is prohibited. In the event any such prohibited observation or recording occurs, Siemens may (in addition to any other legal or equitable rights and remedies) stop the Services until Siemens has satisfied itself that the prohibited conduct has ceased, and in such event (a) the date of delivery or time for performance will be extended by a period of time which Siemens determines necessary and (b) Buyer will reimburse Siemens for Siemens’ and its Suppliers’ additional costs and expenses resulting from such delay, including but not limited to any for demobilization or remobilization. Unless required by appropriate governmental authorities, neither party shall, without the prior written consent of the other party, issue any public statement, press release, publicity hand-out or other material relating to the Services performed on Buyer’s Site or Equipment.

(c) It is Siemens’ policy not to unlawfully or improperly receive or use confidential information, including trade secrets, belonging to others. This policy precludes Siemens from obtaining, directly or indirectly from any employee, contractor, or other individual rendering services to Siemens confidential information of a prior employer, client or any other person which such employee, contractor, or individual is under an obligation not to disclose. Buyer agrees to abide by this policy. (d) Siemens shall retain all intellectual property rights in the Services, works, Siemens’ documents, processes, Siemens’ confidential information, and any design information and/or documents made by (or on behalf of) Siemens. Upon receipt of all fees, expenses and taxes due in respect of the relevant Services, Siemens grants to the Buyer a non-transferable, non-exclusive, royalty-free license to copy, use and communicate Siemens’ documents for the sole purpose of operation and maintenance of the facility upon which the Services have been performed.

12. COMPLIANCE WITH LAWS. The parties agree to comply with all applicable laws and regulations.

13. CHANGES IN SERVICES. No change will be made to the scope of Services unless Buyer and Siemens agree in writing to the change and any resulting price, schedule or other contractual modifications. If any change to any law, rule, regulation, order, code, standard or requirement impacts Siemens’ obligations or performance under this Agreement, Siemens shall be entitled to a change order for an equitable adjustment in the price and time of performance.

14. NON-WAIVER. Any waiver by a party of strict compliance with this Agreement must be in writing, and any failure by the parties to require strict compliance in one instance will not waive its right to insist on strict compliance thereafter.

15. MODIFICATION OF TERMS. These terms may only be modified by a written instrument signed by authorized representatives of both parties.

16. ASSIGNMENT. Neither party may assign all or part of this Agreement, or any rights or obligations under this Agreement without the prior written consent of the other; but either party may assign its rights and obligations, without recourse or consent to, any parent, wholly owned subsidiary or affiliate or affiliate’s successor organization (whether as a result of reorganization, restructuring or sale of substantially all of a party’s assets). However, Buyer shall not assign this Agreement to a competitor of Siemens; an entity in litigation with Siemens; or an entity lacking the financial capability to satisfy Buyer’s obligations. Any assignee expressly assumes the performance of any obligation assigned. Siemens may grant a security interest in this Agreement and/or assign proceeds of this Agreement without Buyer’s consent.

17. APPLICABLE LAW AND JURISDICTION. This Agreement is are governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware, without regard to its conflict of laws principles. The application of the United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods is excluded. BOTH SIEMENS AND BUYER KNOWINGLY,

VOLUNTARILY AND IRREVOCABLY WAIVE ALL RIGHTS TO A JURY TRIAL IN ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING RELATED IN ANY WAY TO THIS AGREEMENT. Each party agrees that claims and disputes arising out of this Agreement must be decided exclusively in a federal or state court of competent jurisdiction located in a state in which either Buyer or Siemens maintains its principal place of business. Each party submits to the personal jurisdiction of such courts for the purpose of litigating any claims or disputes.

18. SEVERABILITY. If any provision of this Agreement is held invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the remaining provisions will not in any way be affected or impaired. A court may modify the invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision to reflect, as closely as possible, the parties’ original intent.

19. EXPORT/IMPORT COMPLIANCE. Buyer acknowledges that Siemens is required to comply with applicable export/import laws and regulations relating to the sale, export, import, transfer, assignment, disposal and use of goods or information provided in the performance of the Services, including any export/import license requirements. Buyer agrees that such goods or information shall not at any time directly or indirectly be used, exported, imported, sold, transferred, assigned or otherwise disposed of in a manner which will result in non-compliance with any export/import laws and regulations Siemens’ continuing performance hereunder is conditioned on compliance with such export/import laws and regulations at all times.

20. NUCLEAR. In the event the Services provided under the Agreement are to be performed at or in any manner in connection with a nuclear installation, the following conditions shall apply:

A. Buyer’s Insurance
(1) If Buyer procures property damage insurance applicable to occurrences at the Site and third party non-nuclear liability insurance, or either of such types of insurance, such insurance will name Siemens and its subcontractors as additional insureds.
(2) Buyer shall have at its own cost, prior to the arrival of nuclear fuel at the Site, secured and shall thereafter maintain in force protection against liability arising out of or resulting from a Nuclear Incident (as defined in the Atomic Energy Act of 1954, as amended) as required by the Nuclear Regulatory Commission; provided, however, that if the nuclear liability protection system in effect on the date of the Agreement expires or is repealed, changed, or modified, Buyer will, without cost to Siemens, maintain liability protection through government indemnity, limitation of liability, and/or liability insurance which will not result in a material impairment of the protection afforded Siemens and its subcontractors by such nuclear liability protection system which is in effect as of the date of the Agreement, taking into account the availability of insurance, customary practice in the industry for plants of similar size and character, and other relevant factors in light of then existing conditions. In any event, the protection provided pursuant to this Article shall remain in effect until the decommissioning of the nuclear plant.

B. Waivers by Buyer: Neither Siemens, nor its subcontractors shall be liable for any loss of, damage to, or loss of use of property or equipment wherever located, arising out of or resulting from a “Nuclear Incident.” Buyer waives and will require its insurers to waive all rights of recovery against Siemens and its subcontractors on account of any such loss, damage, or loss of use. All such waivers shall be full and unrestricted and in a form acceptable to Siemens.

In the event Buyer recovers damages from a third party based on losses at the Site resulting from the hazardous properties of source, special nuclear or byproduct material (as defined in the Atomic Energy Act of 1954, as amended), Buyer shall defend, indemnify and hold Siemens and its subcontractors harmless against claims by such third party which are based on Buyer’s recovery of such damages. In addition, Buyer waives and will require its insurers to waive all rights of recovery against Siemens and its subcontractors, for any and all costs or expenses arising out of or in connection with the investigation and settlement of claims or the defense of suits for damage resulting from the nuclear energy hazard.

C. Third Party Property Protection: Buyer will indemnify and hold Siemens and its subcontractors harmless for any liability arising out of loss of or damage to property at the Site which arises out of a Nuclear Incident. In addition, Buyer shall obtain for the benefit of Siemens and its subcontractors, protection against liability for, arising out of, or resulting from damage to any property or equipment located at the Site which is used or intended for use by Buyer in connection with the operation of the nuclear power plant (including but not limited to fuel) and which is owned by parties other than Buyer.

D. Decontamination: Buyer shall, without cost to Siemens, perform any required decontamination and health physics necessary for, related to or resulting from Siemens performance of its contractual obligations. This includes but is not limited to decontamination of any Siemens equipment or tools used in the performance thereof. Buyer shall provide documentation demonstrating that components or parts being returned to Siemens after such decontamination meet the requirements designated for unrestricted release as set forth in the United States Code of Federal Regulations, Title 10 Part 20.

To the extent Siemens incurs additional time and expense as the result of Buyer’s non-compliance, Siemens shall be entitled to an equitable adjustment in the schedule, price and other affected provisions of the Agreement.

23. ENVIRONMENTAL COMPLIANCE. To the extent that the performance of Services at the Site may involve the generation of hazardous waste as such term is defined in the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (42 U.S.C. 6901, et seq.), the laws of the state in which the Site is located and the rules or regulations issued thereunder as are now in effect or hereafter amended from time to time (such generated hazardous waste being herein referred to as “Hazardous Waste”) shall apply.

Buyer shall at its expense and in accordance with all applicable federal, state and local laws, rules, regulations and ordinances (i) furnish Siemens with containers for Hazardous Waste, (ii) designate a storage area at the Site proximate to the Services where such containers are to be placed; and (iii) handle, store and dispose of Hazardous Waste. Buyer shall reimburse Siemens for additional costs, if any, incurred in complying with any such laws, regulations, rules and/or ordinances.

Siemens shall have no responsibility or liability with regard to any Hazardous Waste which it does not know or have reason to know will be generated or released in the performance of the Services, and Buyer shall indemnify and hold Siemens harmless for all damages, losses, costs, liabilities, fines and penalties, (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) related to pollution and environmental impairment arising from the Buyer’s property, the Equipment or the Services.

24. ASBESTOS
The terms “Asbestos” and “Presumed Asbestos Containing Material” shall have the meanings set forth in United States Code of Federal Regulations Chapter 29 Section CFR 1926.1101 et seq., and “ACM” shall mean Asbestos and Asbestos containing materials.

A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF CUDAHY,

CALIFORNIA, AUTHORIZING THE EXECUTION AND DELIVERY OF A

PERFORMANCE CONTRACTING AGREEMENT, LEASING SCHEDULE
#20011891, WHICH INCORPORATES THE TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF A MASTER LEASE PURCHASE AGREEMENT AND AN ESCROW AGREEMENT; MAKING FINDINGS REQUIRED BY GOVERNMENT CODE SECTION 4217.10 ET SEQ. IN CONNECTION WITH THE CITY’S RENEWABLE AND ENERGY

EFFICIENCY PROGRAM
WHEREAS, pursuant to California Public Resources Code section 25008, it is the policy of the State of California and the intent of the Legislature to promote all feasible means of energy conservation and all feasible uses of alternative energy supply sources; and WHEREAS, California Government Code section 4217.10 et seq. authorizes a public agency to enter into an energy service contract if its governing body determines, at a regularly scheduled public meeting, following a hearing the notice of which was given at least two weeks in advance, that the anticipated cost to the agency will be less than the anticipated marginal cost to the agency of electrical energy that would have been consumed by the agency in the absence of the energy services contract; and
WHEREAS, the City of Cudahy, California (“City”) desires to reduce the steadily rising costs of meeting the energy needs at City-owned facilities; and WHEREAS, on November 2, 2021, the City Council of the City (“City Council”) authorized the City Manager to execute a letter of intent with Siemens Industry, Inc. (“Siemens”) to proceed with the detailed study of a renewable and energy efficiency program for the City; and WHEREAS, on August 1, 2022, Siemens provided its “Investment Grade Audit” to City staff; and
WHEREAS, on August 16, 2022, City Council was presented with the Investment Grade Audit and approved an appropriation in the amount not-to-exceed $6.5 million dollars to fund a City-Wide Energy Efficiency Facilities Modernization Project for Fiscal year 2022-2023, that includes the implementation of energy related improvements that will reduce the cost of energy through the installation of energy efficient fixtures and improvements and the installation and operation of solar energy equipment on City-owned facilities, including rooftops and carports (collectively the “Project”); and
WHEREAS, the Investment Grade Audit includes data showing that the anticipated cost to the City for the electrical energy and conservation services provided by the Project will be less than the anticipated marginal cost to the City of electrical and other energy that would have been consumed by the City in the absence of such measures; and WHEREAS, the City proposes to enter into a Performance Contracting Agreement, a Leasing Schedule #20011891, which incorporates the terms and conditions of a Master Lease Purchase Agreement, an Escrow Agreement, and agreements related to the foregoing documents for the implementation of the Project (collectively, the “Project Documents”); and Attachment C Page 310 of 507
WHEREAS, the City Council desires to enter into the Project Documents substantially in the forms presented at this meeting, subject to such changes, insertions, or omissions as the Authorized Representative (as defined herein) reasonably deems necessary or appropriate following the City Council's adoption of this Resolution; and WHEREAS, California Government Code section 4217.13 authorizes a public agency to enter into a facility financing contract and facility ground lease if the governing body determines, at a regularly scheduled public meeting, public notice of which is given at least two weeks in advance, that funds for the repayment of the financing or the cost of design, construction, and operation of the energy conservation facility, or both, as required by the contract, are projected to be available from revenues resulting from sales of electricity or thermal energy from the facility or from funding that otherwise would have been used for purchase of electrical, thermal, or other energy required by the public agency in the absence of the energy conservation facility, or both; and
WHEREAS, in accordance with California Government Code section 4217.10 et seq., the City gave notice of a public hearing in connection with the Project and the financing therefor at least two (2) weeks prior to the date of the hearing; and WHEREAS, the City's proposed approval of the Project is a “project” for purposes of the California Environmental Quality Act (“CEQA”); and
WHEREAS, the CEQA Guidelines (Title 14 California Code of Regulations Section 15000 et seq.) exempt certain projects from further CEQA evaluation; and WHEREAS, the City has reviewed the Project and determined that it is exempt from the provisions of CEQA pursuant to the CEQA Guidelines and that no exceptions to the exemption apply;
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the City Council of the City of Cudahy, California, as follows:

SECTION 1. Pursuant to California Government Code section 4217.10 et seq., the City Council hereby finds and determines that all of the recitals set forth above are true and correct.

SECTION 2. The City Council hereby finds that the terms of the Project Documents in the form presented at this City Council meeting are in the best interests of the City and hereby approves such documents.

SECTION 3. In accordance with California Government Code section 4217.12, and based on data provided by Siemens in the Investment Grade Audit, the City Council finds and determines that the anticipated cost to the City for electrical energy and conservation services provided by the applicable Project Documents will be less than the anticipated marginal cost to the City of electrical and other energy that would have been consumed by the City in the absence of the Project. The City Council further finds and determines that the difference, if any, between the fair rental value for the leased property specified in the Leasing Schedule #20011891 to the Master Lease Purchase Agreement and the agreed rent thereunder is anticipated to be offset by benefits provided under the Performance Contracting Agreement.

Page 311 of 507 ends

SECTION 4. In accordance with California Government Code section 4217.13, based upon the financing proposal presented by Siemens Public, Inc., which included financing of notto-exceed $5,100,000 at an interest rate of not to exceed 5.0%, subject to a default rate not-toexceed 12%, over a 16-year term, with payments absent a default totaling not to exceed $7,639,210.88, and the Investment Grade Audit, the City Council hereby finds that funds for the repayment of the financing for the Project are projected to be available from funding that otherwise would have been used for the purchase of electrical energy required by the City in the absence of the energy conservation facilities.

SECTION 5. The City Manager, the Finance Director/City Treasurer and each of their respective designees (each an “Authorized Representative”), is hereby authorized and directed to negotiate any further changes, insertions and omissions to the Project Documents as such Authorized Representative reasonably deems necessary or desirable, and thereafter to execute and deliver the Project Documents. Each Authorized Representative is further authorized and directed to execute or cause to be executed any and all other agreements, instruments, certificates, and documents and to do or cause to be done any and all other acts and things necessary or advisable for carrying out the purposes of this Resolution.

SECTION 6. The City Council hereby finds that the Project is exempt from CEQA on multiple grounds, each of which is independently sufficient to exempt the whole of the Project from CEQA, including:
a. The Project is exempt from CEQA pursuant to the statutory exemption outlined in California Public Resources Code section 21080.35 for installation of solar energy systems. The Project meets this exemption because it involves installation of energy efficient fixtures and improvements and the installation and operation of solar energy facilities on existing City owned facilities.
b. The Project is exempt from CEQA under a Class I categorical exemption (14 C.C.R. § 15301) because it involves the minor alteration of existing facilities with improvements that would lead to negligible or no expansion of use beyond the use existing at this time. The installation of solar energy facilities on existing structures will make the City more energy efficient. The solar energy facilities would not lead to an intensification of the existing uses because the improvements do not expand building square footage or office space.

Furthermore, the Project does not involve any improvements that would increase the maximum employee capacity. The Project is expected to result in net environmental benefits by reducing traditional electrical energy consumption of the City. Therefore, the Project would be exempt under a Class 1 exemption.
c. The Project is exempt from CEQA under a Class 3 exemption (14 C.C.R. § 15303) (new construction or conversion of small structures) because the Project involves installation of energy efficient fixtures and improvements and the installation and operation of solar energy facilities on structures at City owned facilities that will benefit the environment by creating more renewable energy.
d. The Project is exempt from CEQA under the common sense exemption (14 C.C.R. § 15061(b)(3)) because CEQA applies only to projects which have the potential for causing a significant effect on the environment, and there is no possibility that the Project may have a significant effect on the environment.

Page 312 of 507 ends

e. The Project is exempt from CEQA under a Class 11 exemption (14C.C.R. § 15311) because it involves the construction of minor structures accessory to existing City-owned facilities. As explained above, the Project involves installation of energy efficient fixtures and improvements and the installation and operation of solar energy facilities on existing structures at City-owned facilities. The solar panels would lie within the existing permitted height of the City’s buildings. Therefore, the Project would be exempt under a Class 11 exemption.

None of the exceptions to the categorical exemptions set forth in 14 C.C.R. § 15300.2 apply.

Specifically, the Project is not located in a particularly sensitive environment. The improvements will be installed on existing structures in developed areas. The cumulative impact of successive projects of this same type in the same place over time would not be significant because the facilities are limited in size. As explained above, the Project involves installation of energy efficient fixtures and improvements and the installation and operation of solar energy facilities on Cityowned facilities. These types of improvements are not unusual. Moreover, the facilities and buildings impacted by the Project are not located within an officially designated state scenic highway. Thus, the Project would not have an impact in this regard. Similarly, the proposed improvements are not located on sites designated pursuant to California Government Code section 65962.5. Finally, the Project does not involve any improvements, modifications, or other changes to a historical resource. Therefore, none of the circumstances outlined in 14 C.C.R. § 15300.2 apply.

SECTION 7. The City Council hereby authorizes and directs City staff to file and process a Notice of CEQA Exemption for the Project in accordance with CEQA, the CEQA Guidelines and the findings set forth in this Resolution.

SECTION 8. This Resolution shall become effective immediately.

PASSED, APPROVED AND ADOPTED by the City Council of the City of Cudahy at its regular meeting on this 4th day of October 2022.

1. Master Lease. This Agreement sets forth the basic terms and conditions upon which Lessor shall lease to Lessee and Lessee shall lease from Lessor items of property specified in leasing schedules (herein "Leasing Schedules") to be entered into from time to time. Each Leasing Schedule shall incorporate the terms and conditions of the Agreement and shall constitute a lease as to the property specified in such Leasing Schedule (herein "Equipment").

The term "Lease" as used in the Agreement shall mean the applicable Leasing Schedule, together with the Agreement.

The Agreement shall become effective as of the date first referenced above.

2. Term. The lease term of the Equipment (herein "Lease Term") shall commence upon the lease commencement date specified in the Leasing Schedule (herein “Lease Commencement Date”) and, unless earlier terminated as expressly provided for in the Lease, shall continue until Lessee has paid and performed in full all of its obligations under the Lease.

3. Acquisition of Equipment. Lessee hereby sells, assigns, transfers and sets over to Lessor, all of its rights, title and interest, but none of its obligations or responsibilities, in and to the purchase or acquisition contract(s) (herein "Purchase Contracts") entered into by and between Lessee and one or more vendors, suppliers or contractors (the "Suppliers") for the acquisition and installation of the Equipment, including, without limitation, all right, title and interest of Lessee in and to the Equipment and all of Lessee's rights and remedies under the Purchase Contracts, and the right either in Lessor's own behalf or in Lessee's name to take all such proceedings, legal equitable or otherwise, that it might take, save for the Lease.

4. Lessee to Act as Agent. Lessor hereby irrevocably appoints Lessee as its agent in connection with the acquisition and installation of the Equipment pursuant to the Purchase Contracts. Lessee, as agent of Lessor, shall cause the acquisition and installation of Equipment to be completed as soon as reasonably practicable and in accordance with the Lease and the Purchase Contracts, and any applicable requirements of governmental authorities.

5. Rent. Lessee agrees to pay to Lessor or its assignee the lease payments, including the interest thereon (herein the "Lease Payments") specified in the Leasing Schedule. The Lease Payments shall be payable without notice or demand at the Delaware headquarters of Lessor (or such other place as Lessor or its assignee may from time to time designate in writing) and shall commence as set forth in the Leasing Schedule (each applicable due date, a “Lease Payment Date”), and continue thereafter as specified in the Leasing Schedule. Any Lease Payment or other amount due from Lessee under the Lease (whether prior to or after a Default (as hereinafter defined) and including, without limitation, accelerated balances) that is received later than ten (10) days from the due date shall bear interest from the due date at the lesser of 12% per annum or the highest lawful rate.

Except as specifically provided in Section 8 hereof, Lessee's obligation to pay the Lease Payments is absolute and unconditional in all events and is not subject to any set-off, defense, counterclaim, or recoupment claim for any reason whatsoever, including without limitation any failure of any of the Equipment to be delivered or installed, any condemnation or loss of or damage to the Equipment, any defect therein or any unfitness or obsolescence thereof.

Lessee reasonably believes that funds can be obtained sufficient to make all Lease Payments during the Lease Term.

Lessee covenants to take such action as may be necessary to include all Lease Payments due hereunder in its annual budget and to make the necessary annual appropriations for all such Lease Payments, subject only to abatement as provided in Section 8 hereof. The covenants on the part of Lessee herein contained shall be deemed to be and shall be construed to be duties imposed by law and it shall be the duty of each and every public official of Lessee to take such action and do such things as are required by law in the performance of the official duty of such officials to enable Lessee to carry out and perform the covenants and agreements in the Lease agreed to be carried out and performed by Lessee.

The obligation of Lessee to make Lease Payments does not constitute an obligation of Lessee for which Lessee is obligated to levy or pledge any form of taxation or for which Lessee has levied or pledged any form of taxation.

Lease Payments have been calculated based upon the interest portion of the Lease Payments being excludable from gross income for federal tax purposes and not being subject to State of California personal income tax. If, in the opinion Attachment D Page 315 of 507
2 of nationally recognized counsel qualified to render such opinion under Section 103 of the Code, Lessor is no longer entitled to exclude the interest portion of the Lease Payments from its gross income for federal, state and local income tax purposes, Lessor, at Lessor's option, shall recalculate the Lease Payments for the remaining term of the Lease and/or extend the original term of the Lease, as permitted by law, to protect Lessor's originally anticipated after tax yield from the Lease Commencement Date to the end of the Lease Term. Such recalculations shall be on the basis that the interest portion of the Lease Payments is subject to (a) federal income tax at the highest marginal corporate tax rate and (b) state and local income tax at the highest marginal corporate tax rate or other similar tax rate as may be applicable in each state or locality, as applicable. In such event, Lessee authorizes Lessor to correct the Leasing Schedule (and all related documentation) to reflect such changes, and Lessee, if requested by Lessor, shall execute an amendment to the Leasing Schedule prepared by Lessor to reflect such changes.

6. Delivery and Acceptance. Lessee, as Lessor's agent, shall cause Supplier to deliver the Equipment to Lessee pursuant to the contract between Lessee and Supplier at the location specified in the Leasing Schedule ("Equipment Location"). Payment of all transportation and other costs, if any, incurred in connection with delivery of the Equipment shall be paid as set forth in the contract between Supplier and Lessee, and Lessor shall have no obligation to pay any such costs. Lessee shall accept the Equipment as soon as it has been delivered and is operational. Lessee shall evidence its acceptance of the Equipment by executing and delivering to Lessor an acceptance certificate in form and substance acceptable to Lessor.

7. Disclaimer of Warranties; Limitation on Liability. Lessee acknowledges and agrees that the Equipment is of a size, design and capacity selected by Lessee upon the advice and recommendation of Supplier, that Lessor is neither a manufacturer nor a vendor of such Equipment, and that LESSOR HAS NOT MADE, AND DOES NOT HEREBY MAKE,

ANY REPRESENTATION, WARRANTY OR COVENANT, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, WITH RESPECT TO THE

MERCHANTABILITY, CONDITION, QUALITY, DURABILITY, DESIGN, OPERATION, FITNESS FOR USE, OR

SUITABILITY OF THE EQUIPMENT IN ANY RESPECT WHATSOEVER OR IN CONNECTION WITH OR FOR THE

PURPOSES AND USES OF LESSEE, OR ANY OTHER REPRESENTATION, WARRANTY OR COVENANT OF ANY KIND OR CHARACTER, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, WITH RESPECT THERETO. IN NO EVENT SHALL LESSOR BE

LIABLE (INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION, UNDER ANY THEORY IN TORTS) FOR ANY LOSS OF USE,

REVENUE, ANTICIPATED PROFITS OR SPECIAL, INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES

ARISING OUT OF OR IN CONNECTION WITH THE LEASE OR THE USE, PERFORMANCE OR MAINTENANCE OF THE EQUIPMENT. Lessor hereby assigns to Lessee for the Lease Term, so long as no Default has occurred hereunder and is continuing, all manufacturer's warranties held by Lessor, if any, express or implied, with respect to the Equipment, and Lessor authorizes Lessee to obtain the customary services furnished in connection with such warranties at Lessee's expense.

8. Rental Abatement. Lease Payments due under the Lease and other amounts due under the Lease or under a related escrow agreement shall be subject to abatement during any period in which, by reason of material damage to or destruction or condemnation of the Equipment or the real property on or in which it is located, there is substantial interference with the use and right of possession by Lessee of the Equipment or any substantial portion thereof. Lessee shall immediately notify Lessor upon the occurrence of any event causing substantial interference with Lessee's use and possession of the Equipment. For each potential incident of substantial interference, decisions to be made on (a) whether or not abatement will apply; (b) the date upon which abatement will begin; and (c) the applicable portion of Lease Payments to be abated, will all be subject to determinations by Lessee and Lessor in concert with the provider of the rental interruption insurance issued pursuant to Section 16 hereof. The concluding date of the particular abatement shall be the earlier of (i) the date on which there is no longer a substantial interference with the use and right of possession by Lessee of the Equipment, (ii) the date on which Lessee replaces the Equipment, or (iii) the date on which Lessee has paid and performed in full its obligation under the Lease pursuant to Section 15 or Section 2 hereof. The amount of rental abatement shall be such that the Lease Payments paid by Lessee during the period of Equipment restoration do not exceed the fair rental value for the usable portions of the Equipment. In the event of any damage or destruction to the Equipment, the Lease shall continue in full force and effect notwithstanding any abatement of Lease Payments pursuant to this Section. Any provision herein to the contrary notwithstanding, the provisions of this Agreement, including without limitation dates on which Lease Payments are due, shall be extended for a period equal to the period during which the obligation to make Lease Payments was abated hereunder. To the extent permitted by law, Lessee waives the benefits of Civil Code Section 1932 and any and all other rights to terminate a Lease by virtue of any interference with the use and possession of the Equipment; provided that such waiver shall not constitute a waiver of the abatement of Lease Payments as set forth in this Section 8.

9. Lessee Representations and Covenants.

4 10. Title to Equipment; Security Interest. Upon acceptance of the Equipment by Lessee, title to the Equipment shall vest in Lessee; provided, however, that upon the occurrence of a Default, and as long as such Default is continuing, title will immediately vest in Lessor or its assignee. In order to secure the payment and performance of all of its obligations under the Lease, Lessee hereby: (a) to the extent permitted by law, grants to Lessor a first and prior security interest in any and all right, title and interest of Lessee in the Equipment, together with all accessions, attachments, replacements, substitutions, modifications and additions thereto, now or hereafter acquired, and all Proceeds (as defined in the applicable Uniform Commercial Code) thereof (including insurance proceeds); (b) authorizes Lessor to file such Uniform Commercial Code financing statements, continuation statements and similar filings respecting such security interest with such authorities and with any filing offices as Lessor considers appropriate; and (c) agrees to execute and deliver all certificates of title and other documents requested by Lessor to evidence such security interest.

11. Use; Repairs. Lessee shall use the Equipment in a careful manner for the use contemplated by the manufacturer for the Equipment and shall comply with all laws, ordinances, insurance policies and regulations relating to, and will pay all costs, claims, damages, fees and charges arising out of, its possession, use or maintenance. Lessee, at its expense, will keep the Equipment in good repair and furnish all parts, mechanisms, and devices required therefor, subject to any applicable warranties. Lessee shall not permit any other person (other than its employees within the scope of their employment) or entity to use, manage or operate the Equipment. If any Equipment is customarily covered by a maintenance agreement, Lessee shall enter into a maintenance agreement with a party reasonably satisfactory to Lessor and shall furnish Lessor with a copy of such maintenance agreement. No maintenance or other service for any Equipment will be provided by Lessor and Lessor shall not be liable for any operating or maintenance costs with respect to the Equipment.

12. Alterations. Lessee shall not make any alterations, additions or improvements to the Equipment without Lessor's prior written consent unless such alterations, additions or improvements may be readily removed without causing damage to the Equipment. Any alterations, additions or improvements to the Equipment shall become a part of the Equipment and subject to the Lease.

13. Location; Inspection. The Equipment shall not be removed from, or if the Equipment consists of mobile goods or rolling stock, its permanent base shall not be changed from, the Equipment Location without Lessor's prior written consent, which will not be unreasonably withheld. Lessor shall be entitled to enter upon the Equipment Location or elsewhere during reasonable business hours to inspect the Equipment or observe its use and operation.

14. Liens and Taxes. Lessee shall keep the Equipment free and clear of all levies, liens and encumbrances except those created under the Lease. Lessee shall pay, when due, all Taxes (as hereinafter defined) which may now or hereafter be imposed upon the ownership, leasing, rental, sale, purchase, possession or use of the Equipment, the Lease, the Lease Payments, any other payments due under the Lease or the transaction contemplated thereby. If Lessee fails to pay any Taxes when due, Lessor shall have the right, but shall not be obligated, to pay those Taxes. If Lessor pays any Taxes for which Lessee is responsible or liable under the Lease, Lessee shall promptly reimburse Lessor therefor. For purposes of the Lease, "Taxes" means present and future taxes, levies, duties, assessments, fees or other governmental charges of federal, state and local governments that are not based on the net income of Lessor, whether they are assessed to or payable by Lessee or Lessor, including, without limitation, sales, use, excise, licensing, registration, titling, gross receipts, stamp and personal property taxes, and interest, penalties or fines on any of the foregoing.

15. Risk of Loss; Damage; Destruction. Lessee assumes all risk of loss of or damage to the Equipment from any cause whatsoever, except only Lessor’s negligence or willful misconduct. In the event of damage to any item of Equipment, Lessee shall promptly place the same in good repair whether or not such damage is covered by property damage insurance, with the proceeds of any insurance recovery applied to the cost of such repair. If Lessor determines that any item of Equipment is lost, stolen, destroyed or damaged beyond repair, Lessee, at the option of Lessor, shall either (a) replace the same with like equipment in good repair (with its own funds to the extent that sufficient insurance proceeds are not available for that purpose), or (b) on the next Lease Payment Date, pay Lessor (i) all amounts then owed by Lessee to Lessor under the Lease, including the Lease Payment due on such date, and (ii) an amount equal to the then applicable "Concluding Payment" as set forth in the Leasing Schedule.

16. Insurance. Lessee shall, at its expense, maintain at all times during the Lease Term, fire and extended coverage, public liability and property damage insurance with respect to the Equipment in such amounts, covering such risks, and with such insurers as shall be satisfactory to Lessor. In no event shall the property insurance limits be less than the amount of the then applicable Concluding Payment with respect to such Equipment. The public liability insurance policy

Page 318 of 507 ends

5 shall name Lessor and its assigns as additional insureds. The property insurance policy shall name Lessee as an insured and Lessor and its assigns as additional insured and loss payee, as their interests may appear. Each of the insurance policies shall contain a clause requiring the insurer to give Lessor at least thirty (30) days prior written notice of any alteration in the terms of such policy or the cancellation thereof. The proceeds of any such policies shall be payable to Lessee and Lessor or its assigns as their interests may appear. Upon acceptance of the Equipment and thirty (30) days prior to each insurance renewal date, Lessee shall deliver to Lessor a certificate evidencing such insurance. In the event of any loss, damage, injury or accident involving the Equipment, Lessee shall promptly provide Lessor with written notice thereof and make available to Lessor all information and documentation relating thereto.

In addition to the insurance described above, Lessee shall, at its own expense, maintain rental interruption insurance with an insurer satisfactory to Lessor, to cover Lessor's loss, total or partial, of Lease Payments resulting from the loss, total or partial, of the use or possession of any part of the Equipment as a result of any and all perils, either insured or uninsured, including acts of God, in an amount sufficient at all times to pay an amount not less than the maximum Lease Payments payable by Lessee during a 24-month period, as set forth in the Leasing Schedule. Such insurance may be maintained in conjunction with or separate from any other similar insurance maintained by Lessee. All insurance proceeds shall be payable to Lessor in amounts proportionate to the loss of use of the Equipment and will supplement Lessee's applicable Lease Payments, if any, during the restoration period in sufficient amount to make Lessor whole during the period of abatement. Lessee shall not be permitted to self-insure its obligation under this paragraph.

17. Indemnification. Lessee shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law, indemnify Lessor against, and hold Lessor harmless from, any and all claims, actions, proceedings, expenses, damages or liabilities, including attorneys’ fees and court costs, arising in connection with the Equipment, including, but not limited to, its selection, purchase, ownership, delivery, possession, lease, use, operation, rejection, revocation of acceptance or return, and the recovery of claims under insurance policies thereon. The provisions of this Section 17 shall survive the expiration of the Lease.

18. Assignment. Without Lessor's prior written consent, Lessee shall neither (i) assign, transfer, pledge, hypothecate, grant any security interest in or otherwise dispose of the Lease or the Equipment or any interest in the Lease or the Equipment, nor (ii) sublet or lend the Equipment or permit it to be used by anyone other than Lessee or Lessee's employees. Lessor (and any assignee of Lessor) may assign any of its rights, title and interest in and to the Lease, the Equipment and any documents executed with respect to the Lease without the consent of Lessee. [Lessee shall not have the right to and shall not assert against any assignee any claim, defense, recoupment claim, setoff or counterclaim or other right Lessee may have against Lessor or any Supplier.][TO BE DISCUSSED WITH LESSOR.] Subject to the foregoing, the Lease inures to the benefit of and is binding upon the heirs, executors, administrators, successors and assigns of the parties hereto. After notice of such an assignment, Lessee shall execute all documents, including any notices and acknowledgements of assignment, which may be reasonably requested by Lessor or assignee, and, upon request of Lessor, shall name the assignee as additional insured and loss payee in any insurance policies obtained or in force. For the Lease Term and an additional period of six (6) years thereafter, Lessee shall keep a complete and accurate record of all assignments or reassignments of any of Lessor's right, title or interest in the Lease or the Equipment in a form necessary to comply with Section 149(a) of the Code and the regulations promulgated thereunder by the Internal Revenue Service.

19. Default. The term "Default," as used herein, means the occurrence of any one or more of the following events:
(i) Lessee fails to make any Lease Payment (or any other payment) as it becomes due in accordance with the terms of the Lease, and any such failure continues for ten (10) days after the due date thereof; (ii) Lessee fails to perform or observe any other covenant, condition or agreement to be performed or observed by it under the Lease, and such failure is not cured within thirty (30) days after written notice thereof by Lessor; (iii) the discovery by Lessor that any statement, representation or warranty made by Lessee in the Lease or in any writing ever delivered by Lessee pursuant hereto or in connection herewith is false, misleading or erroneous in any material respect; (iv) a default by Lessee under any Lease or other agreement or note with Lessor, or with any assignee of the Lease; (v) proceedings under any bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or similar legislation shall be instituted against or by Lessee, or a receiver or similar officer shall be appointed for Lessee or any of its property, and in the case of any such involuntary proceedings or appointment, such shall not be vacated, dismissed or fully stayed within sixty (60) days after the institution or occurrence thereof; or (vi) an attachment, levy or execution is threatened or levied upon or against the Equipment.

20. Remedies. Upon the occurrence of a Default, and as long as such Default is continuing, Lessor may, at its option, exercise any one or more of the following remedies: (i) by written notice to Lessee, with or without terminating the Lease, demand and Lessee shall, at Lessee's expense, promptly return the Equipment to Lessor in the manner hereinafter set forth in this Section 20, or Lessor, at its option, may enter upon the premises where the Equipment is located and take immediate possession of and remove the same without demand or notice, without any court order or other process of

Page 319 of 507 ends

6 law and without liability for any damage occasioned by taking possession; (ii) sell, lease or otherwise dispose of the Equipment (each a “Disposition”), in whole or in part, in public or private transactions, for the account of Lessee, holding Lessee liable for all Lease Payments and other payments then payable under the Lease; (iii) terminate any unfunded commitments to Lessee; (iv) by action pursuant to the California Code of Civil Procedure, or as otherwise provided by law, obtain the issuance of a writ of mandamus enforcing, for the entire balance of the Lease Term, the duty of Lessee to appropriate and take all other administrative steps necessary for the making of Lease Payments as they become due; and (v) exercise any other right, remedy or privilege which may be available to it under applicable law or by appropriate court action at law or in equity to enforce the terms of the Lease or to recover actual damages for the breach of the Lease or to rescind the Lease as to any or all of the Equipment. In addition, Lessee shall remain liable for all legal fees and other costs and expenses, including court costs, incurred by Lessor with respect to the enforcement of any of the remedies listed above. Lessor may be a purchaser at any sale of the Equipment pursuant to this Section 20, and the proceeds of any such Disposition shall be applied in the following order: (a) to the payment of expenses related to such Disposition including, without limitation, costs of repair or replacement of the Equipment, expenses related to enforcement of the Lease, including reasonable attorneys' fees and other expenses related thereto; (b) to payment of the Non-Recourse Amount, as defined below; and (c) the balance, if any, to Lessee.

Following notice from Lessor to return the Equipment upon a Default, Lessee shall immediately cease all use of the Equipment and shall, at its sole expense and risk, immediately de-install, disassemble, pack, crate, insure, and return the Equipment to Lessor (all in accordance with applicable industry standards) at any location in the continental United States selected by Lessor. The Equipment shall be in the same condition and appearance as when received by Lessee (reasonable wear, tear and depreciation resulting from normal and proper use excepted), shall be in good operating order and maintenance as required by the Lease, shall be free and clear of any liens (except Lessor's lien), and shall comply with all applicable laws and regulations. Lessee agrees to execute and deliver to Lessor all documents reasonably requested by Lessor to evidence the transfer of legal and beneficial title to the Equipment to Lessor and to evidence the termination of Lessee's interest in the Equipment. Lessor shall have all legal and equitable rights and remedies to take possession of the Equipment
As used herein, the “Non-Recourse Amount” means (1) an amount equal to the Concluding Payment for the last Lease Payment Date occurring in the fiscal year in effect when the Default occurs (the “Last Lease Payment Date”), plus (2) if the Disposition has occurred after the Last Lease Payment Date, an amount equal to interest (to the date of Disposition) on the Concluding Payment referenced in the foregoing subsection (1) at the lesser of 12% per annum or the highest rate permitted by law, plus (3) all other amounts due and unpaid under the Lease to the extent not included in the amount calculated pursuant to clause (i) above.

21. Purchase Option. Upon thirty (30) days prior written notice from Lessee to Lessor, and provided that there is no Default then existing, Lessee shall have the right to purchase all (but not less than all) of the Equipment on any Lease Payment Date, as permitted in the Leasing Schedule, by paying to Lessor, on such date, the Lease Payment then due together with the Concluding Payment amount for such date as set forth in the Leasing Schedule. Upon satisfaction by Lessee of such purchase conditions, Lessor will transfer any and all of its right, title and interest in the Equipment to Lessee AS-IS, WHERE-IS, without warranty, express or implied, except that the Equipment shall be free and clear of any liens created by Lessor.

22. Notices. All written notices to be given under the Lease shall be given to the other party at its address identified below, or at such address as the party may provide to the other party in writing from time to time, by (i) first class mail, postage prepaid, (ii) overnight delivery by nationally recognized courier or (iii) personal delivery. Notices sent by mail shall be deemed received five days after deposit in the U.S. mail, postage prepaid. Notices delivered by other means shall be deemed received upon receipt. All written notices herein shall be simultaneously given to Lessor’s fiscal agent, Siemens Financial Services, Inc., 200 Wood Avenue South, Suite 200, Iselin, NJ 08830, Attention: Chief Financial Officer.

23. Section Headings. All section headings contained herein are for the convenience of reference only and are not intended to define or limit the scope of any provision of the Lease.

24. Governing Law. The Lease shall be construed in accordance with and governed by the laws of the State of Lessee.

25. Further Assurances. Lessee shall promptly execute and deliver to Lessor such further documents and take such further action as Lessor may reasonably request in order to more effectively carry out the intent and purpose of the Lease.

26. Waiver. The Lease shall not be modified, amended, altered or changed except with the written consent of Lessee and Lessor. If any provision of the Lease shall be adjudged invalid, illegal or unenforceable by a court of competent

Page 320 of 507 ends

7 jurisdiction, the remaining provisions of the Lease shall not be affected thereby, but the Lease shall be construed as if such invalid, illegal or unenforceable provisions had not been contained therein, and the remainder of the Lease shall be valid and enforceable to the fullest extent permitted by law. Lessor shall not be deemed to have waived any breach by Lessee of any term, covenant or condition of the Lease, unless Lessor makes such waiver in writing, and any such waiver shall not operate as a waiver of any subsequent breach of any terms, covenant or conditions of the Lease. TO

THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, LESSOR AND LESSEE EACH WAIVE TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY

ACTION OR PROCEEDING BROUGHT BY EITHER PARTY AGAINST THE OTHER ON ANY MATTER WHATSOEVER ARISING OUT OF OR IN ANY WAY CONNECTED WITH THE LEASE.

27. Execution in Counterparts. The Lease may be executed in several counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original and all of which shall constitute but one and the same instrument. All signatures of the parties to the Lease may be transmitted by electronic means, and such electronic copy will, for all purposes, be deemed to be the original signature of such party whose signature is reproduced and will be binding upon such party. In addition, the transaction described in the Lease may be conducted and related documents may be stored by electronic means.

Copies, telecopies, facsimiles, electronic files and other reproductions of original executed documents shall be deemed to be authentic and valid counterparts of such original documents for all purposes, including the filing of any claim, action or suit in the appropriate court of law.

11. AMENDMENT TO SECTION 3 OF THE AGREEMENT: For purposes of this Lease, Section 3 of the Agreement shall be deleted and the following substituted therefor:
“3. Purchase Contracts, Acquisition of Equipment.
(a) The Equipment shall be acquired and installed pursuant to one or more purchase or acquisition contracts (the "Purchase Contracts") to be entered into by and between Lessee and one or more vendors, suppliers or contractors (the "Suppliers") for the acquisition and installation of the Equipment. Lessee and Lessor agree that Lessee shall be solely responsible for the selection, size, design and specifications of the Equipment and that Lessor shall have no duty or responsibility therefor or for the negotiation, execution or delivery of any Purchase Contract. (b) Lessee represents, warrants and covenants that the cost of the Equipment shall in no event exceed the Maximum Equipment Cost as set forth in the Leasing Schedule. Any Equipment costs in excess of the Maximum Equipment Cost shall be paid by Lessee with its own funds, and will not be paid out of proceeds of the Lease.
(c) Lessee shall enter into Purchase Contracts for the acquisition or installation of the Equipment, the total cost of which shall not exceed the Maximum Equipment Cost. Further, Lessee shall, after entering into such Purchase Contracts, proceed with due diligence and complete the acquisition and installation of all the Equipment by no later than the timeframe specified in Section 3.5(ii) of the Escrow Agreement Relating to Equipment Subject to the Lease (the "Escrow Agreement") among Lessor, Lessee and the Escrow Agent named therein (the "Escrow Agent"). If the cost of the Equipment exceeds the monies available in the Escrow Fund (the “Escrow Fund”) created by the Escrow Agreement, Lessee shall pay the remaining cost of the Equipment from its other available funds.
(d) Lessee hereby sells, assigns, transfers and sets over to Lessor, all of its rights, title and interest, but none of its obligations or responsibilities, in and to the Purchase Contracts (whether now in existence or hereafter entered into), including, without limitation, all right, title and interest of Lessee in and to the Equipment and all of Lessee's rights and remedies under the Purchase Contracts, and the right either in Lessor's own behalf or in Lessee's name to take all such proceedings, legal equitable or otherwise, that it might take, save for the Lease. (e) Prior to disbursements under the Escrow Agreement, either directly to one or more Suppliers or in reimbursement of advance payments by Lessee, for all or a portion of the Equipment accepted by Lessee pursuant to the Lease and the Purchase Contracts, Lessee shall furnish the Escrow Agent with a requisition requesting disbursement in the form attached as Exhibit A to the Escrow Agreement completed and executed by Lessee and approved for payment by Lessor, together with the supporting documents referred to in the requisition. Upon the delivery to Escrow Agent of such instruments, Lessee shall be found to have accepted that portion of the Equipment and related services and labor represented by the requisition. (f) If Lessee has not accepted all the Equipment within the timeframe specified in Section 3.5(ii) of the Escrow Agreement (the "Nonacquired Equipment Date"), the Lease shall not as a result thereof be void or voidable, nor shall Lessor be liable to Lessee for any loss or damage resulting from such nonacceptance of Equipment. Prior to the Nonacquired Equipment Date, Lessee may, with Lessor's prior written consent, substitute items of Equipment equal in value for items of Equipment not delivered. If all or a part of the original or substituted Equipment has not been accepted by Lessee on or before the Nonacquired Equipment Date, the Lease shall terminate as to such unaccepted portion of the Equipment (the "Nonacquired Equipment") as of the Nonacquired Equipment Date. Exhibit A to this Leasing Schedule shall be deemed to be automatically amended to delete all reference to the Nonacquired Equipment. As set forth in the Escrow Agreement, a payment to Lessor pursuant to Section 3.5 of the Escrow Agreement shall constitute a partial prepayment of Lease Payments (as hereinafter defined), and upon receipt of such prepayment, Lessee authorizes Lessor to prepare a revised Exhibit B to this Leasing Schedule reflecting such prepayment, which shall be delivered to Lessee, and Lessee shall acknowledge such revised Exhibit B in writing if requested by Lessor.
(g) Monies held by the Escrow Agent pursuant to the Escrow Agreement shall be paid to Lessor in accordance with Section 3.5 of the Escrow Agreement, including, without limitation, upon the occurrence of a Default or upon a termination of the Lease as a result of Lessee's governing body failing to appropriate sufficient funds to pay the Lease Payments and other amounts due hereunder for any fiscal period. (h) Lessee hereby represents as follows:
(i) The estimated total costs of the Equipment, including costs of negotiating and preparing the Lease and any assignment of the Lease by Lessor, shall not be less than the total principal portion of the Lease Payments. (ii) The Equipment has been ordered or is expected to be ordered within six months of the Lease Commencement Date, and the Equipment is expected to be delivered and installed, and the Supplier fully paid, within eighteen (18) months of the Lease Commencement Date. (iii) Lessee has not created or established, and does not expect to create or establish, any sinking fund or other similar fund (a) that is reasonably expected to be used to pay the Lease Payments, or (b) that may be used solely to prevent a default in the payment of the Lease Payments. (iv) The Equipment has not been and is not expected to be sold or otherwise disposed of by Lessee, either in whole or in part, prior to the expiration of the Lease Term.
(v) To the best of Lessee's knowledge, information and belief, all expectations referenced above are reasonable.”

12. AMENDMENT TO SECTION 6 OF THE AGREEMENT: For purposes of this Lease, Section 6 of the Agreement shall be deleted and the following substituted therefor:
“6. Delivery and Acceptance. Lessee, as Lessor's agent, shall cause the Equipment to be delivered to Lessee at the location specified in Exhibit A ("Equipment Location"). Lessee shall pay all transportation and other costs, if any, incurred in connection with delivery of the Equipment. Lessee shall accept the Equipment (by delivery of a requisition request as described in Section 3(e) above) as soon as it has been delivered and is operational.

Concurrently with the delivery of its final requisition request, Lessee shall evidence its acceptance of all Equipment by executing and delivering to Lessor an Acceptance Certificate substantially in the form attached to the Escrow Agreement. Such Acceptance Certificate shall include the description of all Equipment covered by any and all requisition requests issued under the Lease (the "Final Equipment Description"). Exhibit A shall be deemed automatically amended to the extent necessary to correct any differences between Exhibit A and the Final Equipment Description.”

13. MISCELLANEOUS: Lessor and Lessee agree that the terms and conditions of the Agreement are hereby incorporated into this Leasing Schedule to the same extent as if such terms and conditions were set forth in full herein. THIS LEASING SCHEDULE (AS INCORPORATING THE TERMS OF THE AGREEMENT),

TOGETHER WITH ANY EXHIBITS AND ATTACHMENTS HERETO, CONTAIN THE COMPLETE AGREEMENT OF THE PARTIES WITH RESPECT TO ITS SUBJECT MATTER AND SUPERSEDE AND REPLACE ANY PREVIOUSLY MADE PROPOSALS, REPRESENTATIONS, WARRANTIES AND AGREEMENTS.

Capitalized terms used herein, which are not otherwise defined herein, shall have the same meanings as set forth in the Agreement. Any amendments contained or incorporated into this Leasing Schedule, which in any way alter the terms of the Agreement, shall be effective only with respect to this Leasing Schedule and shall be ineffective with respect to any other Leasing Schedule. The Lease shall become effective at the time of Lessor's acceptance (by execution hereof) at its corporate offices, by an authorized representative of Lessor.

The Escrow Agent shall be under no duty to inquire into or investigate the validity or accuracy of any such document. The Escrow Agent may consult with counsel, who may or may not be counsel to the Lessor or the Lessee, and the opinion or advice of such counsel shall be full and complete authorization and protection in respect of any action taken or suffered by it under this Escrow Agreement in good faith and in accordance therewith.

Whenever the Escrow Agent shall deem it necessary or desirable that a matter be proved or established prior to taking or suffering any action under this Escrow Agreement, such matter (unless other evidence in respect thereof be therein specifically prescribed) may be deemed to be conclusively proved and established by a certificate of an Authorized Officer of Lessee or an Authorized Officer of Lessor, or both, as appropriate, and any such certificate shall be full warrant for any action

Page 332 of 507 ends

taken or suffered in good faith under the provisions of this Escrow Agreement upon the faith thereof, but in its discretion the Escrow Agent may in lieu thereof accept other evidence of such fact or matter or may require such further additional evidence as to it may seem reasonable.

In the event that the Escrow Agent shall be uncertain as to its duties or rights hereunder or shall receive instructions, claims or demands from any party hereto which, in its opinion, conflict with any of the provisions of this Escrow Agreement, the Escrow Agent shall provide written notice to the Lessor and Lessee of the reason of such uncertainty or the receipt of instructions, claims or demands (with a copy thereof to the parties hereto), and it shall be entitled to refrain from taking any action and its sole obligation shall be to keep safely all property held in escrow until it shall be directed otherwise in writing by all of the other parties hereto or by a final order or judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction.

Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Escrow Agreement, any request order, notice or other direction required or permitted to be furnished pursuant to any provision hereof by the Lessee or the Lessor shall be sufficiently executed if executed in the name of the Lessee or the Lessor by an Authorized Officer of Lessee or Lessor, as the case may be.

The Escrow Agent either as principal or agent, may also engage in or be interested in any financial, fiduciary, agency or other transaction with the Lessee or the Lessor, and may act as depository, trustee, or agent for any assignee of the Lessor or other obligations of the Lessee as freely as if it were not Escrow Agent hereunder.

The recitals, statements and representations in this Escrow Agreement shall be taken and construed as made on the part of the Lessee and not by the Escrow Agent, and the Escrow Agent does not assume, and shall not have, any responsibility or obligation for the correctness of any thereof.

The Escrow Agent may execute any of the trusts or powers hereof and perform the duties required of it hereunder by or through attorneys, agents, or receivers, and shall be entitled to advice of counsel concerning all matters of trust and its duties hereunder, and the Escrow Agent shall not be answerable for the default or misconduct of any such attorney, agent or receiver selected by it with reasonable care. The Escrow Agent shall not be answerable for the exercise of any discretion or power under this Escrow Agreement or for anything whatever in connection with the Escrow Fund established hereunder, except only for its own willful misconduct, negligence or breach of any provision of this Escrow Agreement.

Anything in this Escrow Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, in no event shall the Escrow Agent be liable for special, indirect or consequential loss or damage of any kind whatsoever (including, but not limited to, lost profits) even if advised of the likelihood of such loss or damage and regardless of the form of action.

The Escrow Agent shall not be required to take notice or be deemed to have notice of any default hereunder unless the Escrow Agent shall be specifically notified in writing of such default by the Lessee or the Lessor. All notices or other instruments required hereunder to be delivered to the Escrow Agent must, in order to be effective, be delivered to the office of the Escrow Agent as specified in Section 6.3 herein, and in the absence of such notice so delivered, the Escrow Agent may conclusively assume there is no such default except as aforesaid.

The Escrow Agent shall not be required to give any bond or surety in respect of the execution of the said trusts and powers or otherwise in respect of the premises.

Before taking such action hereunder, the Escrow Agent may require that it be furnished an indemnity bond satisfactory to it for the reimbursement to it of all expenses to which it may be put and to protect it against all liability, except liability which is adjudicated to have resulted from the Escrow Agent’s negligence, willful misconduct or breach of any provision of this Escrow Agreement.

(ii) on the date received if sent by overnight courier or if mailed by prepaid certified mail, return receipt requested.

In the event that the Escrow Agent, in its sole discretion, shall determine that an emergency exists, the Escrow Agent may use such other means of communication as the Escrow Agent deems appropriate.

6.5. Security Procedures. In the event funds transfer instructions are given (other than in writing at the time of execution of this Escrow Agreement) whether in writing, by telecopier or otherwise, the Escrow Agent shall seek confirmation of such instructions by telephone call-back to the person or persons designated on Schedule 1 hereto, and the Escrow Agent may rely upon the confirmation of anyone purporting to be the person or persons so designated. The persons and telephone numbers for individuals authorized to give or confirm payment instructions may be changed only in a writing actually received and acknowledged by the Escrow Agent. The Escrow Agent and the beneficiary's bank in any funds transfer may rely solely upon any account numbers or similar identifying numbers provided by the Lessor or the Lessee to identify (i) the beneficiary, (ii) the beneficiary's bank, or (iii) an intermediary bank. The Escrow Agent may apply any of the escrowed funds for any payment order it executes using any such identifying number, even when its use may result in a person other than the beneficiary being paid, or the transfer of funds to a bank other than the beneficiary's bank or an intermediary bank designated. The parties to this Escrow Agreement acknowledge that these security procedures are commercially reasonable. All funds transfer instructions must include the signature of the person(s) authorizing said funds transfer.

6.6 Severability. Any provision of this Escrow Agreement found to be prohibited by law shall be ineffective only to the extent of such prohibition, and shall not invalidate the remainder of this Escrow Agreement.

6.7. Binding on Successors. This Escrow Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties and their respective successors and assigns.

6.8. Headings. Headings preceding the text of the several Articles and Sections hereof, and the table of contents, are solely for convenience of reference and shall not constitute a part of this Escrow Agreement or affect its meaning, construction or effect.

6.9. Execution in Counterparts; Electronic Transaction. This Escrow Agreement may be executed in several counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original and all of which shall constitute but one and the same instrument. All signatures of the parties to this Escrow Agreement may be transmitted by facsimile, and such facsimile will, for all purposes, be deemed to be the original signature of such party whose signature reproduces and will be binding upon such party. If one of the parties requests after the date of this Escrow Agreement that the other parties hereto deliver a copy of the Escrow Agreement with an original signature page to such requesting party, the non-requesting parties shall promptly deliver a copy of this Escrow Agreement with an original signature page to the requesting party. In addition, the transaction described herein may be conducted and related documents may be received, sent or stored by electronic means. Copies, telecopies, facsimiles, electronic files and other reproductions of original executed documents shall be deemed to be authentic and valid counterparts of such original documents for all purposes, including the filing of any claim, action or suit in the appropriate court of law.

6.10. Force Majeure. In the event that any party to this Escrow Agreement is unable to perform its obligations under the terms of this Escrow Agreement because of acts of God, strikes, equipment or transmission failure or damage reasonably beyond its control, or other cause reasonably beyond its control, such party shall not be liable for damages to the other parties for any unforeseeable damages resulting from such failure to perform or otherwise from such causes. Performance under this Escrow Agreement shall resume when the affected party is able to perform substantially that party’s duties.

6.11 Tax Identification Numbers. Upon execution of this Agreement, the Lessee shall provide the Escrow Agent with a fully executed W-8 or W-9 IRS form, or such other tax document as is appropriate for the Lessee, which shall include the Lessee's Tax Identification Number. All interest or other income earned under the Escrow Agreement shall be for the account of Lessee and shall be so reported by the Escrow Agent to the Internal Revenue Service and all other applicable taxing

Page 334 of 507 ends

authorities. The Escrow Agent shall report, and, as required, withhold and remit, to the appropriate authorities, any taxes as it determines may be required by any law or regulation in effect at the time of a distribution or as otherwise required. In the event that any earnings remain undistributed at the end of any calendar year, Escrow Agent shall report to the Internal Revenue Service or such other authority such earnings as it deems appropriate or as required by any applicable law or regulation or, to the extent consistent therewith, as directed in writing by the Lessor and Lessee.

6.12 Account Opening Information. In order to assist the United States government to prohibit the funding of terrorism and money laundering activities, Federal law requires all financial institutions to obtain, verify, and record information that identifies each person who opens an account. Accordingly, in order to establish the Escrow Fund, the Escrow Agent will ask for information that will allow the Escrow Agent to identify all relevant parties.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties have executed and attested this Escrow Agreement by their officers thereunto duly authorized as of the Effective Date.

The amount to be disbursed constitutes all or a portion of the Acquisition Costs of the Equipment, said amount is required to be disbursed pursuant to a Purchase Contract entered into therefor by or on behalf of the Lessee, and said amount is not being paid in advance of the time, if any, fixed for any payment.

2. Acquisition and installation of the applicable portion of the Equipment for which payment is being requested has been completed in accordance with plans and specifications approved by the Lessee and in accordance with the terms and conditions of the applicable Purchase Contract(s).

ARBITRAGE INVESTMENT INSTRUCTIONS
These Arbitrage Instructions provide guidance regarding compliance with § 148 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"), in order to preserve the exclusion from gross income for federal income tax purposes of the interest components of Lease Payments to be paid by the Lessee under the Lease. Pursuant to the Escrow Agreement, the Escrow Agent has agreed to hold, invest and disburse the proceeds of the Lease.

In Section 9 of the Lease, the Lessee has covenanted that it will not knowingly take any action that would cause the interest portion of the Lease Payments under the Lease to become includable in gross income of the recipient for federal income tax purposes under the Code and the applicable Treasury Regulations promulgated thereunder (defined below as the "Regulations"), and that it will take and will cause its officers, employees and agents to take all affirmative actions legally within its power and known to it to be necessary to ensure that the interest portion of the Lease Payments does not become includable in gross income of the recipient for federal income tax purposes under the Code and the Regulations. These actions include compliance with all requirements of the Code and the Regulations relating to the rebate of arbitrage profit to the United States of America, including without limitation the calculation and payment to the United States of any rebate required to preserve said exclusion of the interest components of Lease Payments.

Section 1. Definitions. In addition to the capitalized terms defined in the Lease and in § 148 of the Code and the Treasury Regulations issued thereunder, the following capitalized terms are defined:
"Bona Fide Debt Service Fund" means, under Treas. Reg. § 1.148-1(b), a fund that (1) is used primarily to achieve a proper matching of revenues with Lease Payments within each Lease Year, and (2) is depleted at least once each Lease Year, except for a reasonable carryover amount not to exceed the greater of (a) the investment earnings on the fund for the preceding Lease Year, or (b) 1/12 of the total Lease Payments on the Lease for the preceding Lease Year. For purposes of these Arbitrage Instructions, as of any date, all amounts in the Proceeds Account of the Escrow Fund which are expected to be used to pay capitalized interest during the current Lease Year should be treated as amounts in a Bona Fide Debt Service Fund.

It is not expected that any Sale Proceeds would be held in a Bona Fide Debt Service Fund. "Escrow Fund" means the special escrow trust fund established in the custody of the Escrow Agent under the Escrow Agreement.
"Final Computation Date" means the date the last Lease Payment is made and the Lease is terminated. "Gross Proceeds" means (i) Sale Proceeds; (ii) investment proceeds derived from the investment of Sale Proceeds; (iii) amounts held in a sinking fund for the Lease; (iv) amounts held in a pledged fund or reserve fund for the Lease; and (v) any transferred proceeds. Specifically, Gross Proceeds include all amounts held in the Proceeds Account of the Escrow Fund. "Installment Computation Date" means every 5th anniversary of the Issue Date. "Investment" means any security, obligation, annuity contract or other investment-type property which is purchased directly with, or otherwise allocated to, Gross Proceeds. Such term does not include obligations the interest on which is excluded from federal gross income, except for "specified private activity bonds" as such term is defined in Code § 57(a)(5)(C). "Issue Date" means the date on which the Lease is executed and delivered. "Lease Year" means each one-year period ending on each annual anniversary of the Lease Commencement Date. "Minor Portion" means the lesser of $100,000 or 5% of the Sale Proceeds. "Reasonable Retainage" means Gross Proceeds retained by the Lessee for reasonable business purposes, such as to ensure or promote compliance with a construction contract; provided that such amount may not exceed 5% of net Sale Proceeds of the Lease on the date 18 months after the Issue Date. "Regulations" means Treasury Regulations §§ 1.148-0 through 1.148-11, 1.149(d)-1, 1.149(g)-1, 1.150-1 and

1.150-2, as the same may hereafter be amended, and any other temporary, proposed or final regulations promulgated by the Internal Revenue Service to implement the requirements of § 148(f) of the Code and applicable to the Lease. "Sale Proceeds" means any amounts actually or constructively received from the "sale" of the Lease (i.e., execution, delivery and funding or purchase of the Lease by the Lessor or the Lessor's assignee if the Lessor's assignee is funding the Lease), including amounts used to pay any discount or compensation to underwriters, lease brokers, placement agents or financial advisors and accrued interest other than pre-issuance accrued interest. "Special Tax Counsel" means a counsel of recognized national standing in the field of law relating to municipal bonds.

Page 341 of 507 ends

B-2
Section 2. Covenants. The Lessee agrees (a) to compute the arbitrage rebate on the Lease, or to determine that all or a portion of the Gross Proceeds are exempt from the rebate requirements, as appropriate, in accordance with the Regulations, and (b) to pay to the United States all arbitrage rebate due in accordance with these Arbitrage Investment Instructions and the Regulations. Further guidance relating to arbitrage rebate is set forth in the Tax Certificate.

Section 3. Investments. All Gross Proceeds must be invested in accordance with this Section. (a) Temporary Periods/Yield Restriction. Proceeds of the Lease deposited in the Proceeds Account of the Escrow Fund and investment earnings thereon may be invested without yield restriction for not more than three years after the Issue Date, except as otherwise provided in this Section. If any unspent proceeds remain in the Proceeds Account of the Escrow Fund after three years, such amounts may continue to be invested without yield restriction, except as otherwise provided in this Section, so long as all yield reduction payments are computed and paid to the IRS in accordance with Treas. Reg. § 1.148-5(c).

Any amounts in the Proceeds Account of the Escrow Fund after completion of the acquisition of the Equipment in excess of the sum of the Lease Payments coming due within 12 months of such completion plus $100,000 and any amounts not invested as described above shall be invested at a yield not greater than the yield on the Lease. (b) Fair Market Value.
(1) General. No Investment may be acquired with Gross Proceeds for an amount (including transaction costs) in excess of the fair market value of such Investment, or sold or otherwise disposed of for an amount (including transaction costs) less than the fair market value of the Investment. The fair market value of any Investment is the price a willing buyer would pay to a willing seller to acquire the Investment in a bona fide, arm's-length transaction. Fair market value shall be determined in accordance with § 1.148-5 of the Regulations. Where there is no established securities market for an Investment, use the applicable paragraphs below.
(2) Certificates of Deposit. The purchase price of a certificate of deposit (a "CD") is treated as its fair market value on the purchase date if (i) the CD has a fixed interest rate, a fixed payment schedule, and a substantial penalty for early withdrawal; (ii) the yield on the CD is not less than the yield on reasonably comparable direct obligations of the United States; and (iii) the yield is not less than the highest yield published or posted by the CD issuer to be currently available on reasonably comparable CDs offered to the public. (3) Other Investments. If an Investment is not described above, the fair market value may be established through a competitive bidding process, as follows:
(A) at least three bids on the Investment must be received from persons with no financial interest in the Lease (e.g., as underwriters or brokers); and (B) the yield on the Investment must be equal to or greater than the yield offered under the highest bid.

Section 4. Arbitrage Rebate Exceptions.
(a) Small Issuer Exception. The Lessee will not be obligated to pay arbitrage rebate to the United States if (i) the Lessee is a governmental unit under the laws of its state with general taxing powers; (ii) the Lease is not a private activity bond as defined in Section 141 of the Code; (iii) 95% or more of the net proceeds of the Lease will be used for local governmental activities of the Lessee; and (iv) the aggregate face amount of all tax-exempt obligations (other than private activity bonds) issued by the Lessee and all subordinate entities thereof during the calendar year in which the Lease Commencement Date (as defined in the Lease) occurs does not exceed $5,000,000. (b) Six-Month Exception. The obligation to pay arbitrage rebate to the United States will be treated as satisfied if (1) the Gross Proceeds (as modified below) are allocated to expenditures for the governmental purpose of the Lease within six months after the Issue Date; and (2) arbitrage rebate is paid in accordance with Section 148 of the Code on all other Gross Proceeds.

For purposes of paragraph (1) above, Gross Proceeds do not include amounts in a Bona Fide Debt Service Fund or amounts that become Gross Proceeds after the end of the six-month spending period, but were not expected to be Gross Proceeds as of the Issue Date (e.g., Gross Proceeds arising from a sale of the facilities financed with the Lease). The Lease meets the sixmonth expenditure test even if, at the end of the six-month period, Gross Proceeds not exceeding the Minor Portion remain unspent, so long as such Gross Proceeds are spent within one year after the Issue Date. The use of Gross Proceeds to pay the principal component of any Lease Payment will not be treated as an expenditure of Gross Proceeds. (c) Eighteen-Month Exception. The obligation to pay arbitrage rebate to the United States will be treated as satisfied if

Page 342 of 507 ends

B-3
(1) the Gross Proceeds (as modified below) are allocated to expenditures for the governmental purpose of the Lease in accordance with the following schedule:

Minimum
Time Period Percentage of
after the Gross Proceeds
Issue Date Spent
6 months 15
1 year 60
18 months 100
and;
(2) arbitrage rebate is paid in accordance with Section 148 of the Code on all other Gross Proceeds.

For purposes of paragraph (1) above, Gross Proceeds do not include amounts in a Bona Fide Debt Service Fund or amounts that become Gross Proceeds after the end of the 18-month spending period, but were not expected to be Gross Proceeds as of the Issue Date (e.g., Gross Proceeds arising from a sale of the facilities financed with the Lease). The Lease meets the 18- month expenditure test even if, at the end of the 18-month period, Gross Proceeds not exceeding a Reasonable Retainage remain unspent, so long as such proceeds are spent within 30 months after the Issue Date. In addition, the failure to satisfy the final spending requirement at the end of the 18-month period is disregarded if the Lessee uses due diligence to complete the facilities financed with the Lease, and the amount of Gross Proceeds unspent does not exceed the lesser of 3% of the "issue price" of the Lease (i.e., the amount paid by the Lessor or the Lessor's assignee if the Lessor's assignee is funding the payment) or $250,000. However, the use of Gross Proceeds to pay the principal component of any Lease Payment will not be treated as an expenditure of such Gross Proceeds.

Section 5. Computation and Payment of Arbitrage Rebate. (a) Computation, Notice and Transfer. Except as provided above, the Lessee shall compute arbitrage rebate within 45 days after each Installment Computation Date, and within 45 days after the Final Computation Date, in accordance with the Regulations. Upon each computation of arbitrage rebate, the Lessee shall give written notice to the Lessor by first class mail, postage prepaid, including a copy of such computation, showing the arbitrage rebate due, together with an opinion or certificate stating that arbitrage rebate was determined in accordance with the Regulations. (b) Exception for Bona Fide Debt Service Fund. Amounts in a Bona Fide Debt Service Fund are exempt from the arbitrage rebate requirements.
(c) Rebate Payments. Within 60 days after each Installment Computation Date and the Final Computation Date, the Lessee shall pay to the United States the amount of arbitrage rebate then due, determined in accordance with the Regulations.

Each payment of arbitrage rebate shall be mailed or delivered to:

Internal Revenue Service Center
Ogden, UT 84201
(or any other address required by the Regulations) and shall be accompanied by IRS Form 8038-T and such other forms, documents or certificates as may be required by the Regulations. The Lessee shall send a copy of any such correspondence, payments, forms or documents to the Lessor.

Section 6. Records. The Lessee shall retain a copy of each computation of arbitrage rebate, and the Escrow Agent shall, to the best of its abilities, retain detailed records with respect to each Investment, including: (a) purchase date, (b) purchase price, (c) information establishing the fair market value on the date such investment was allocated to the Lease, (d) any accrued interest paid, (e) face amount, (f) coupon rate, (g) frequency of interest payments, (h) disposition price, (i) any accrued interest received, and (j) disposition date. The Lessee and the Escrow Agent shall retain all such records until six years after the Final Computation Date.

Section 7. Filing Requirements. The Lessee shall file or cause to be filed with the Internal Revenue Service such reports or other documents as are required by the Code. The Escrow Agent shall provide to the Lessee, upon written request, all information required to be retained by it pursuant to the Escrow Agreement (including these Arbitrage Investment Instructions).

Section 8. Survival after Defeasance. Notwithstanding anything in the Escrow Agreement to the contrary, the obligation to pay arbitrage rebate to the United States and to comply with all other requirements contained in these Arbitrage Instructions and in the Regulations shall survive the payment or defeasance of the Lease.

Section 9. Opinion of Special Tax Counsel. These Arbitrage Instructions may be modified or amended in whole or in part upon receipt of an opinion of Special Tax Counsel to the effect that such modifications and amendments will not adversely affect the exclusion from federal gross income of the interest components of the Lease Payments. * * *

Re: Master Lease Purchase Agreement, dated October 7, 2022, between the City of Cudahy, as Lessee, and Siemens Public, Inc., as Lessor
Ladies and Gentlemen:

In our capacity as special counsel to the City of Cudahy, California (the “City” or “Lessee”), a municipal corporation existing under the laws of the State of California, we have examined (i) the Leasing Schedule #20011891 and a Master Lease Purchase Agreement, dated October 7, 2022 (together, the “Lease Agreement”), between the City of Cudahy, as Lessee, and Siemens Public, Inc., as Lessor (“Siemens” or “Lessor”); (ii) the Escrow Agreement, dated October 7, 2022 (the “Escrow Agreement” and, together with the Lease Agreement, the “Agreements”), among the City, Siemens and UMB Bank, N.A., as escrow agent thereunder; (iii) Resolution No. 2022-__ adopted by the City Council of the City on October 4, 2022; (iv) an opinion of Olivarez Madruga Law Organization, LLP (the “City Attorney”), dated October 7, 2022, relating to the Agreements, the proceedings in connection with the approval and execution of the Agreements, and certain other matters; (v) the Tax Certificate of the City, dated October 7, 2022, relating to the Lease Agreement and (vi) such other documents, certificates, opinions and matters of law as we have deemed necessary to enable us to render the opinions expressed herein. All capitalized terms used but not defined herein have the meanings ascribed to them in the Lease Agreement.

We have assumed, but have not verified, that the signatures on all documents, certificates and opinions that we have reviewed are genuine. In our examination, we have assumed, but have not verified, the legal capacity of all natural persons, the authenticity of all documents submitted to us as originals, the conformity to original documents of all documents submitted to us as certified or photostatic copies or by facsimile or other means of electronic transmission or which we obtained from sites on the internet, and the authenticity of the originals of such latter documents. As to facts and certain other matters and the consequences thereof relevant to the opinions expressed herein and the other statements made herein, we have relied without investigation or verification upon, and have assumed the accuracy and completeness of, certificates and letters (including opinion letters), and oral and written statements and representations of public officials, officers and other representatives of the City, counsel for the City, and others. Further, we express no opinion as to whether the City has complied with any bidding process required under law in connection with the Agreements, and we have assumed such compliance, if applicable.

Our services as special counsel were limited to such examination and to rendering the opinions set forth below. In addition, the City Attorney is delivering its opinion to you on this date, and we are relying upon the City Attorney opinion for certain matters set forth therein.

Based upon the foregoing and subject to the limitations and qualifications herein specified, as of the date hereof, we are of the opinion, under existing law, that:

1. The City is authorized and has power under State of California (the “State”) law to enter into the Agreements, and to carry out its obligations thereunder.

2. The Agreements have each been duly authorized, executed and delivered by the City and, assuming due authorization, execution, and delivery thereof by the other parties thereto, each constitutes a legal, valid and binding obligation of the City enforceable against the City in accordance with its terms.

3. Under existing statutes, regulations, rulings and judicial decisions, and assuming compliance by the City with certain covenants in the Lease Agreement and the Tax Certificate and requirements of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 regarding the use, expenditure and investment of the amounts deposited by Siemens into the Escrow Fund and the timely payment of certain investment earnings to the United States of America, the portion of each lease payment (each a “Lease Payment”) under the Lease Agreement representing interest is not includable in the gross income of the owners of the Lease Payments for federal income tax purposes. Failure to comply with such covenants and requirements may cause the portion of each Lease Payment representing interest to be included in gross income retroactive to the date of execution and delivery of the Lease Agreement.

4. Under existing law, the portion of each Lease Payment representing interest is not treated as an item of tax preference for purposes of the federal alternative minimum tax.

5. Under existing law, the portion of each Lease Payment representing interest is exempt from personal income taxes imposed by the State.

Except as stated in paragraphs 3, 4 and 5 above, we express no opinion as to any federal or state tax consequence of the ownership or disposition of the Lease Payments. Further, certain requirements and procedures contained or referred to in the Lease Agreement or in other documents may be changed, and certain actions may be taken, under the circumstances and subject to the terms and conditions set forth in such documents, upon the advice or with the approving opinion of counsel nationally recognized in the area of tax-exempt obligations. We express no opinion as to the effect of any change to any document pertaining to the Lease Payments or of any action taken or not taken where such change is made or action is taken or not taken without our approval or in reliance upon the advice of counsel other than ourselves with respect to the exclusion from gross income of the portion of each Lease Payment representing interest for federal income tax purposes.

We have not examined title to any of the Equipment and express no opinion with respect thereto, nor do we express any opinion as to the priority of any liens or security interest created by any

document or the state or quality of title to any of the personal property described in or subject to any lien of the Agreements or the accuracy or sufficiency of the description contained therein of, or the remedies available to enforce liens on, any such property.

The opinions expressed in paragraphs 1 and 2 above are qualified to the extent the enforceability of the Agreements may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, debt adjustment, reorganization, moratorium or similar laws or equitable principles relating to or limiting creditors’ rights generally or as to the availability of any particular remedy. The enforceability of the Agreements is subject to the effect of general principles of equity, including, without limitation, concepts of materiality, reasonableness, good faith and fair dealing, to the possible unavailability of specific performance or injunctive relief, regardless of whether considered in a proceeding in equity or at law, and to the limitations on legal remedies against governmental entities in the State.

The opinions expressed and the statements made herein are based on an analysis of existing laws, regulations, rulings and court decisions. Moreover, our opinions are not a guarantee of result and are not binding on the Internal Revenue Service or the State of California; rather, such opinions represent our legal judgment based upon our review of existing law that we deem relevant to such opinions and in reliance upon the representations and covenants referenced above. Such opinions and statements may be adversely affected by actions taken or events occurring, including a change in law, regulation or ruling (or in the application or official interpretation of any law, regulation or ruling) after the date hereof. We have not undertaken to determine, or to inform any person, whether such actions are taken or such events occur, and we have no obligation to update this letter in light of such actions or events or for any other reason.

No attorney-client relationship has existed or exists between our firm and the addresses hereof, other than the City, in connection with the Agreements or by virtue of this letter. This letter is being delivered to you solely for your benefit and may not be used, circulated, quoted, or otherwise referred to for any other purpose, or relied upon by anyone else without our prior written consent.

Respectfully submitted,

STAFF REPORT
Date: October 4, 2022
To: Honorable Mayor/Chair and City Council/Agency Members From: From: Alfonso Noyola, City Manager/Executive Director By: Aaron Hernandez-Torres P.E., Public Works Director/City Engineer Subject: Approval of Professional Services Agreement with Transtech Engineers, Inc., for On Call Design Engineering Services for Capital Improvement and Community Development Block Grant Projects

RECOMMENDATION
City Council is requested to award a Professional Services Agreement (PSA) for On Call Design Engineering Services for Capital Improvement and Community Development Block Grant Projects to Transtech Engineers, Inc.

BACKGROUND

1. On July 28, 2022, the City issued an RFP for On Call Design Engineering Services. (Attachment A).

2. On August 18, 2022, the proposal due date closed, and three engineering firms submitted a proposal.

3. On September 26, 2022, Transtech Engineers, Inc. was notified that it was the top ranked proposal and would be recommended to Council for contract approval.

ANALYSIS
Due to project demands outlined in the City’s Capital Improvement Plan, staff has determined it necessary to further contract a consultant for On-Call Design Engineering Servicesto expedite and oversee CDBG construction projects and CIP projects funded by various special funding sources.

In response to the City’s issued RFP, three (3) bid proposals were received. Following staffs analysis it was determined that Transtech Engineers, Inc. submitted the best value services as it offered a combination of experience, expertise, staff availability and fair fee to conduct the various projects the City is planning in the following years.

Item Number
16A

Staff Report

Additionally, when comparing the rate for primary project staffing who have obtained their PE (Professional Engineer License), and licenses and certificates in diversified fields, Transtech Engineers also ranks the highest. In accordance to the policies of local return and CDBG programs, City staff therefore recommends that City Council award the contract to Transtech Engineers, Inc.

Below is a projected three-year CIP project list:
• Street Improvement Projects
• Pedestrian and Bike Projects (Active Transportation and Complete Streets Projects) • Traffic Signal Projects
• Engineering Studies and Plans
• Environmental Green Projects
• Grant Funded Projects
• CDBG Projects
Projected design costs for these projects are approximately $1.4 million. The majority of these projects will be funded through special funds and allocations, using allowable administrative costs. This will have no financial impact to the general fund.

If approved, the contract term would be three years with two one-year options. The not-toexceed amount for the life of the contract would be $1.4 million to be offset by special project funds.

Transtech would provide design engineering services to draft project Plan, Specifications & Estimates (PS&E) as well as offer as needed construction support services throughout the construction phase of a project.

Staff also determined that Transtech Engineers, Inc. shall be required to submit individual project proposals for each assignment to ensure that project administration budgets are not exceeded.

CONCLUSION
Approving this professional services agreement between the City of Cudahy and Transtech Engineers, Inc. ensures the City has the capacity to create the proper construction documents for its future infrastructure projects. Approval will ensure the City continues to stay on task and on schedule for the CIP projects referenced above. In addition, it will ensure completion of the City’s CIP project implementation, per city of Cudahy Strategic Implementation Plan.

FINANCIAL IMPACT
The not to exceed contract amount would be $1.4 million. However, the final dollar amount will depend on final construction costs, which will be determined in the early stages of project implementation. All costs incurred will be charged to the associated special funding source. In this case the following project costs will be reimbursed by CDBG, Prop A, Prop C, Measure R, Measure M, SB1 Funding, Caltrans and Metro grants (HSIP,ATP), and other grants. Project budgets will not impact the General Fund.
