5. Milestone Dates.

5.1 The Guaranteed Construction Start Date is 450 days from Effective Date provided that the Local Electric Utility is prepared to begin its construction on any required utility, (distribution or transmission), upgrades, if any, and the City has completed construction within the area of solar development (as indicted in Schedule 8). In the event that the Local Electric Utility is not prepared to commence construction on required upgrades, if any are required, or the City has not completed construction within the area of solar development, Provider will b e allowed a day for day extension to the Guaranteed Construction Start Date, as defined in the General Terms and Conditions between the Parties.

DocuSign Envelope ID: 5D589886-B59A-495C-880B-97746F091276

CONFIDENTIAL AND PROPRIETARY

3 5.2 The Guaranteed Commercial Operation Date is 270 days from Guaranteed Construction Start Date.

6. Purchase Requirement; Energy Services Payment. “Energy Services” means the supply of electrical energy output from the System and any associated reductions in Purchaser’s peak demand from its Local Electric Utility. Purchaser agrees to purchase 100% of the Energy Service s generated by the System and made available by Provider to Purchaser during each relevant month of the Term, up to a maximum of 110% of Estimated Annual Production, as defined in S chedule 4.

While the Energy Services are calculated and billed on a per kWh basis as set forth in Schedule 2 of these Special Conditions, they represent a package of services and benefits.

7. Estimated Annual Production. The annual estimate of electricity generated by the system for each year of the initial term is set as forth in Schedule 4 of the Special Conditions (“Estimated Annual Production”). Within sixty (60) days of each annual anniversary of the Commercial Operation Date , Provider will provide a statement to Purchaser that shows the actual annual kWh production from the System for the Term Year, the Estimated Annual Production, and the Minimum Guaranteed Output (defined below).

8. Minimum Guaranteed Output. If the System fails to generate at least 95% of the Estimated Annual Production for a full Term Year (such amount, the “Minimum Guaranteed Output”), other than as a result of the acts or omissions of Purchaser or the Local Electric Utility (including a Disruption Period) , or an Event of Force Majeure, Provider shall credit Purchaser an amount equal to Purchaser’s Lost Savings on the next invoice or invoices during the following Term Year . The formula for calculating Lost Savings for the applicable Term Year is as follows:

Lost Savings = (MGO*WPR - AE) x RV
MGO = Minimum Guaranteed Output, as measured in total kWh, for the System for the applicable Term Year.

WPR = Weather Performance Ratio, measured as the ratio of the actual insolation over typical (pro -forma) insolation. Such Weather Performance Ratio shall only apply if the ratio is less than 1.00.

AE = Actual Electricity, as measured in total kWh, delivered by the System for the Term Year plus the estimated lost energy production during a Disruption Period.

RV = (ATP - kWh Rate)
ATP = Average tariff price, measured in $/kWh, for the Term Year paid by Purchaser with respect to the Premises. This price is determined by dividing the total cost for delivered electricity, including all charges associated with such electricity howsoever named, including, without DocuSign Envelope ID: 5D589886-B59A-495C-880B-97746F091276

CONFIDENTIAL AND PROPRIETARY

4 limitation, charges for distribution , transmission, demand, and systems benefits, paid to the Local Electric Utility during the applicable Term Year by the total amount of delivered electricity by the electric utility during such Term Year.
kWh Rate = the kWh Rate in effect for the applicabl e Term Year (s), measured in $/kWh.

By way of example only, the Lost Savings would be as follows with the following assumptions:

Lost Savings [Year 5] = (462,879 [MGO*WPR – AE]) x 0.0692 [RV] = $32,031 MGO = 5,982,530 kWh [Year 5 Estimated Production x 95%] WPR = 0.98 [Assumes insolation slightly less than pro-forma] AE = 5,400,000 kWh [Assumes actual delivery of 2,700,000 kWh and no Disruption Period]
RV = $0.0692 [Year 5 ATP – Year 5 kWh Rate]
ATP = $0.188 [Assumes all-in tariff rate in Year 5]
kWh Rate = $0.1188 [Year 5 kWh Rate set forth in Schedule 2] If the RV is zero or less, then no Lost Savings payment is due to Purchaser. Any Lost Savings payment shall occur no later than sixty (60) days after the end of the Term Year during which such Lost Savings occurred.

9. Allowed Disruption Time . Notwithstanding the provisions in Section 4.3 of the General Terms and Conditions to the contrary, during years 4 through 20 (but not years 1 through 3) of the Term, Purchaser shall be a fforded a one-time allocation of fifteen (15) days which may be used consecutively or in separate periods of at least twenty -four (24) hours each (“ Allowed Disruption Time ”) during which the System shall be rendered non -operational. Purchaser shall not be obligated to make payments to Provider for electricity not received during the Allowed Disruption Time, nor shall Purchaser be required to reimburse Provider for any other lost revenue during the Allowed Disruption Time, including any lost revenue associated with any reduced sales of Environmental Attributes, and Provider shall be credited for the estimated lost production the System would have produced during such Allowed Disruption Time toward satisfaction of its Minimum Guaranteed Output , as set forth in Section 8 of the Special Conditions, such estimated lost production to be calculated in the same manner as set forth in Section 4.3 of the General Conditions.
