UTILITY COMMITTEE The Utility Committee Meeting was held on January 25, 2010 at 5:00 p.m. with Chairman Ruane presiding. Members present were Mr. Hogan, Mr. McGiffin, Major Kosior, and Mr. Snaman. Mayor Carey was also present. AGENDA ADDITIONS/DELETIONS Mr. Hogan moved for approval of the agenda, seconded by Mr. Snaman and unanimously carried. White Oak Solar Project During their meeting of July 27, 2009, City Council approved the Utility Committee=s recommendation to authorize the City Manager to execute the Solar Energy Purchase Agreement with White Oak Solar Energy, LLC, as per the terms outlined in the Agreement. During the Committee=s consideration of this agreement (meeting of July 13, 2009), members were advised that the agreement presented was the first agreement to be considered from the negotiation process and, if approved, the agreement would be followed by a Land Lease Agreement and an Interconnection Agreement for consideration. Members were provided the additional agreements for their consideration, as follows: Energy Land Lease Mr. Ron Lunt, Public Utilities Director, reminded members that the approved Solar Energy Purchase Agreement is between White Oak Solar Energy, LLC and the City of Dover for the energy, capacity, and Renewable Energy Credits generated from a solar photovoltaic electric generation facility located on the Garrison Tract. He submitted a proposed land lease that will be used to construct the 10 Mw (approximated) solar facility. Mr. Lunt advised members that the leased lot is currently identified as Lot 15, which is located in the north-west corner of the Garrison Tract. It is approximately 103.5 acres, of which 96.5 acres is useable land; the remaining seven (7) acres will be reforested at the City=s request to provide a buffer between the solar facility and the Wild Meadows development. Since the Renewable Energy Credits will be purchased by Delmarva Power, Sustainable Energy Utility, Delaware Municipal Electric Corporation, and the City of Dover, Pace Global recommended that a non- Delaware firm perform the land valuation to ensure a global view of the property. Pace had worked with Alvarez and Marsal Real Estate Advisory Services (Alvarez) on a similar project and recommended that staff use them for this project. The City of Dover contracted with Alvarez and Marsal who performed a complete land valuation and prepared the Garrison Tract Estimated Land Valuation Report. It was noted that Alvarez and Marsal recommended that the City collect between $45,000 to $55,000 annually for a 100 acre lot. Mr. Lunt reviewed highlights of the Energy Land Lease, as follows: A. The proposed lease will collect $55,000 annually and include a two and one-half percent annual increase once the construction commences, which is anticipated to be late spring. B. From the date of the lease execution until construction begins, White Oak will pay a monthly rent of $1,000.

UTILITY COMMITTEE MEETING OF JANUARY 25, 2010 PAGE 2 C. The lease is for twenty-eight (28) years from the date the facility starts producing energy, which is anticipated to be in December 2010. D. White Oak may extend the term in one (1) year increments five (5) times for a total of five (5) years. E. White Oak will be responsible for all Real Property Taxes levied by the appropriate taxing authorities. F. They have an option of leasing up to an additional ten (10) acres during construction for forty-six dollars per acre per month to be used as a construction staging area. G. The adjoining lots will have a solar easement to ensure that no structures are constructed that will cause shading on the solar panels. These setbacks are as follows: a. Lots to the east and west – forty feet of horizontal distance for every ten feet of structure or tree height; and b. Lots to the north and south – twenty-five feet of horizontal distance for every ten feet of structure or tree height. H. At the end of the lease White Oak will be required, at its expense, to remove all the equipment, foundations, structures, and similar facilities and backfill any holes created by the removal process. This will be financed through a letter of credit or bond in year fifteen of the Lease. Mr. Lunt assured members that the Ground Lease had been reviewed by the City=s attorney, Mr. Kirk Betts of Betts and Holt, and he approved the document in its final form. Staff recommended that the City Manager be authorized to execute the presented Ground Lease Agreement with White Oak Solar Energy, LLC, as per the terms outlined in the Lease. Noting that the Garrison Tract Estimated Land Valuation Report has a report date of May 22, 2009, Mr. Ruane stated that the fifth and sixth paragraphs (bullets) on page 2, state that: "According to current city zoning regulations, this classification permits the semi-conductor industry as an approved use without further review, meaning that a company could receive a building permit after having their site plan accepted."; and that "The minimum lot size is presently set at 50 acres.". For record purposes, he noted that on October 12, 2009, the City adopted Ordinance #2009-18 that added electric generation as a permitted use on the site and amended the minimum lot size to 10 acres. The ordinance has been incorporated in the City Code, Appendix B, Section 20A, Article 4.16 - Zoning Bulk. He stated that the new reference in the Code to this zoning classification is IPM-2. Mr. Ruane provided members with a copy of the "Dover SUN Park (DSP) – A Solar Milestone for Delawareans" and referred to the timeline provided on page 4 (Attachment #1). He noted that on February 16, 2010, the Planning Commission will be conducting a site plan review for this project and that each parcel of the tract will be reviewed. Mr. Hogan moved to recommend that the City Manager be authorized to execute the presented Ground Lease Agreement with White Oak Solar Energy, LLC, as per the terms outlined in the Lease (Attachment #2), as recommended by staff. The motion was seconded by Mr. Snaman and unanimously carried.

UTILITY COMMITTEE MEETING OF JANUARY 25, 2010 PAGE 3 Energy Interconnection Agreement Members were provided a Small Generator Interconnection Agreement between the City of Dover and White Oak Solar Energy, LLC, for their review. Mr. Lunt explained that in order for White Oak Solar Energy to transmit the power from the site, it will be necessary for them to interconnect to the City=s 69kV distribution system. The Agreement outlines the methods and expectations of the interconnection, notices of outages, construction standards, etc. Mr. Lunt reviewed the provisions of the Interconnection Agreement as follows: A. White Oak will construct the facility according to national standards as recognized by the industry. B. White Oak will own and install the metering and will be required to test the meter every three (3) years. C. White Oak is required to maintain a 98.5% power factor (which is the same requirement that Dover has with Delmarva Power). D. Dover will be notified of any testing and may witness this testing to ensure that the new system will operate properly and not adversely affect the Dover distribution system. E. White Oak will be authorized to operate the generation in parallel with the Dover system. F. The Term of the agreement is twenty (20) years from commercial operation date and White Oak may extend this period annually until such time as they terminate the interconnection. G. There is no compensation to Dover since Dover is purchasing all the energy under a separate Solar Energy Purchase Agreement. H. Dover agrees to not disconnect the generation for routine maintenance during the months of June, July, August, or September. I. White Oak will be financially responsible for all of the expenses related to modifying the existing 69 kV system to allow the interconnection of the generation. White Oak will also be responsible for the construction and maintenance of the interconnection substation located on the generation site. J. In conjunction with the project there will be a 69 kV overhead line extension, approximately one-half mile long, constructed from the existing 69 kV line to the generation site. White Oak will construct this line and turn it over to Dover; this will allow Dover to use the poles for any 12 kV services that they choose. K. Dover supplied White Oak with a detailed Technical Requirements Attachment that specifies the equipment and communication requirements for all the components and systems that could impact Dover=s 69 kV network. White Oak will be required to comply with these requirements. Mr. Lunt assured members that the Agreement has been reviewed by the City=s attorney, Mr. Kirk Betts of Betts and Holt, and that he has approved the document in its final form. Mr. Hogan moved to recommend that the City Manager be authorized to execute the presented Small Generator Interconnection Agreement with White Oak Solar Energy,

UTILITY COMMITTEE MEETING OF JANUARY 25, 2010 PAGE 4 LLC, as per the terms outlined in the Agreement (Attachment #3). The motion was seconded by Mr. Snaman and unanimously carried. Energy Transmission Tariff Mr. Ron Lunt, Public Utilities Director, advised members that White Oak Solar Energy (White Oak), LLC, has requested the development of a standard tariff for the delivery of energy and capacity to the PJM grid through the Delmarva Power and Light transmission network. He explained that the tariff would be required, should the City default on the Solar Energy Purchase Agreement, or at the end of the Agreement. Realistically, he stated that the only occasion that the tariff would be used is if the City were to no longer take power from the solar facility, in which case the City would be in default for the first 20 years of the Agreement, which would be highly unlikely but possible. After the 20 years, Mr. Lunt stated that the City may or may not choose to take energy from the facility and that will be determined at that time. Mr. Lunt reviewed a summary of the provisions contained in the recommended Tariff, as follows: A. This tariff limits the transmission of energy at 10 Mw AC. B. White Oak would be required to reserve capacity of the 69 kV system on an annual basis. C. The City of Dover would not be required to facilitate any required interconnection or other agreements; this would be White Oak=s responsibility. D. The City of Dover would not be required to expand capacity on the network to facilitate this reservation; however, White Oak could request expansion at its own expense. E. White Oak is required to maintain a 98.5% power factor (which is the same requirement that Dover has with Delmarva Power). F. The rate for this tariff is $0.23 per kW-month which is consistent with the tariff titled 69 kV Transmission Service Classification for Transmission Service for 16 Mw EWG Unit operated by NRG Energy. Should White Oak exceed the reservation request the penalty rate will be $1.00 per kW-month for the penalty month. Line losses will be recovered by reducing the Net generation by one-percent, which is also consistent with the existing NRG tariff. G. The City of Dover reserves the right to adjust this tariff from time-to-time to reflect changes in the cost of service. Mr. Lunt indicated that White Oak Solar Energy has reviewed the proposed Tariff and agrees that it is fair and acceptable. In addition, he assured members that the Tariff has been reviewed by the City=s attorney, Mr. Kirk Betts of Betts and Holt, and that he approved this Tariff in its final form. Staff recommended the adoption of the Tariff titled 69 kV Delivery Service Classification to the Grid for White Oak Solar Energy, LLC, and to recognize this as a standard City of Dover

Mr. Hogan moved to recommend approval of staff=s recommendation (Attachment #4), seconded by Mr. McGiffin and unanimously carried. At the request of Mr. Ruane, Mr. Lunt reviewed the "Dover SUN Park (DSP) – A Solar Milestone for Delawareans" document (see Attachment #1). PACE/NAES Monthly Report (November) Members were provided the PACE/NAES Monthly Report for November. The report was provided to allow members the opportunity to monitor what is being sold in electric and the revenues received, which will give members a better understanding of any fluctuations and make improvements if deemed necessary. Although it was not staff=s intention to make a presentation of the report, they welcomed any questions. Mr. McGiffin moved to recommend acceptance of the report, seconded by Mr. Hogan and unanimously carried. Mr. Hogan moved for adjournment, seconded by Mr. McGiffin and unanimously carried.

Solar Provides Significant Benefits with Negligible Costs • Dover SUN Park provides significant environmental and other benefits – Reduces hazardous air pollutants and other pollution – Reduces Green House Gases – Provides taxes and lease revenues – Construction jobs for 2010 – Provides positive press and an expected catalyst to future development at Garrison Tract – Provides stable, attractive energy pricing for the next twenty years – Electricity is produced during daytime hours when electric demand is high – peak energy • However, solar photovoltaic energy costs more than other forms of energy and that added cost is paid for by the value in the Solar Renewable Energy Credit (SREC) – the SREC is a compliance certificate that certifies that solar energy was produced. – For every Mega Watt Hour a SREC is created that will be sold to the DE utilities including Dover • Dover will purchase 15% of the SREC’s produced from the facility • The cost of these SRECs will represent seven-tenths of one percent of Dover’s projected power supply costs (wholesale costs) • The SREC cost represents a significant discount compared to the penalty for failure to comply with legislated requirements. • Finally, the cost of solar will have a smaller impact on the Dover rate payers than a six cent increase in natural gas prices.

Página 13

(a) Real Property Taxes. Provided that Dover causes all applicable Real Property Tax bills to be delivered to Lessee not later than thirty (30) days prior to the applicable due date, Lessee shall pay, prior to delinquency, the Real Property Taxes, if any, levied or assessed (i) against the Leased Land or (ii) the Garrison Tract if not a separately taxed parcel (however, Lessee shall only pay (A) a pro rata amount of such Garrison Tract Real Property Taxes based on the acreage of unimproved land on the Premises as it bears in relation to the acreage of unimproved land on the Property) and (B) the Real Property Taxes levied or assessed with respect to the Facility, in each case for the period commencing on the Effective Date and ending on the Expiration Date. (b) Other Property Taxes. Lessee shall pay directly to the taxing authority any Other Property Taxes levied or assessed against the Premises (accruing from and after the Construction Start Up Date and before the Expiration Date) prior to delinquency provided Dover delivers an invoice therefor not later than thirty (30) days prior to the due date. (c) Contesting Taxes. Lessee may, at its sole cost and expense, contest by appropriate legal proceedings conducted in good faith and with due diligence, the amount or validity or application, in whole or in part, of any taxes or assessments. Dover management agrees to reasonably cooperate with such efforts. Dover agrees to promptly cause the Leased Land to be separated as a legal parcel out of the Garrison Tract if Lessee reasonably believes that its share of Real Estate Taxes or Other Property Taxes would be less if the Leased Land was a separately taxed parcel. ARTICLE IV ASSIGNMENT AND SUBLETTING OF THE LEASED LAND Section 4.01. Lessee Assignment. Lessee shall not assign without obtaining Dover’s written consent for the same. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Lessee may: (i) assign this Lease without the consent of Dover to any Affiliate of Lessee; (ii) assign, pledge, hypothecate or otherwise transfer, as and for, among other purposes, collateral security, in connection with any financing-related or sale-leaseback transaction; and (iii) grant licenses with respect to the Premises on a temporary basis in connection with the development, construction, repair, improvement, repowering, operation or replacement of the Facility (or related improvements). Dover agrees to execute a written consent to such financing-related or sale-leaseback assignment as may be reasonably requested from time to time. If such written consent is not requested, Lessee shall notify Dover of any such assignment no later than thirty (30) days after the assignment. In evaluating a proposed assignee or sublessee, Dover’s consent shall be deemed unreasonably withheld if such consent is denied to a party (a) with substantially similar creditworthiness or valuation as Lessee, and (b) that has at least similar experience as Lessee in the operation of power generation facilities. Dover shall respond in writing accepting or denying a proposed assignee or sublettee within 15 days after Lessee’s request therefor, otherwise Dover’s consent shall be deemed granted. 4

Dover shall grant (and shall reasonably cooperate with Lessee in obtaining grants from third parties of) such easements, licenses, rights-of-way or other rights in the Leased Land and adjacent property owned by Dover, in such form and substance as are determined by Lessee to be reasonably necessary to construct, maintain, replace, repower, improve, own and finance the Facility, and the foregoing shall become part of the Premises. Section 5.02. Permitting and Approvals. Dover shall reasonably cooperate with Lessee in, and shall support (and not publicly oppose) Lessee’s applications for, all entitlements (including, but not limited to, all zoning changes or variances, site plan approvals, building permits, regulatory approvals, interconnection rights and other licenses, permits and approvals) reasonably required to develop, construct, replace, repower, improve and operate the Facility. Section 5.03. Notice of Start of Construction. Lessee shall provide Dover thirty (30) days notice prior to commencing construction. Section 5.04. Additional Space During Construction. During the course of construction of the Facility, Dover, upon thirty days notice by Lessee, shall use its best efforts to set aside such additional land adjacent to the Premises ( in an amount not to exceed ten (10) acres) as is reasonably requested by Lessee for the efficient construction of the Facility. Lessee shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to minimize interference with the operations of Dover and any other authorized user of the land adjacent to the Leased Land during the period of construction of the Facility. Once Dover makes available this additional space, Lessee shall pay Dover forty-six dollars ($46.00) per acre per month or any portion of a calendar month. Section 5.05. Quiet Use and Enjoyment. Subject to the terms of this Lease, Lessee shall enjoy the peaceful and quiet use, possession and enjoyment of the Premises without hindrance or disturbance by Dover or any persons claiming by, through or under Dover. Dover agrees to warrant and forever defend Lessee’s exclusive right to such occupancy, use, and enjoyment and the title to the Leased Land against the claims of any and all persons whomsoever lawfully claim the same, or any part thereof, by, through or under Dover. Section 5.06. Setbacks and Shading. Dover shall enforce setbacks on adjoining uses of the Garrison Tract such that structures and landscaping must be setback from the Leased Land at (i) a minimum of forty (40) feet of horizontal distance for every ten (10) feet of structure or tree height for uses that are located to the east or west of any property line of the Leased Land and (ii) a minimum of twenty-five (25) feet of horizontal 5

Página 15

distance for every ten (10) feet of structure or tree height for uses that are located to the north or south of any property line of the Leased Land. Dover understands that this setback is essential to prevent and minimize shading on the Facility and thus maximize energy production from the Facility, and Lessee and the Facility would be harmed otherwise. Lessee is hereby permitted to trim and remove trees on the Leased Land in accordance with local and state ordinances. ARTICLE VI USE; SURRENDER; ASSIGNMENT; CONDEMNATION; INSPECTIONS Section 6.01. Use of the Leased Land. Lessee shall use the Leased Land solely for the purpose of the development, construction, installation, ownership, maintenance and operation of the Facility.

Section 6.02. Surrender of the Leased Land. (a) Lessee, upon the termination of this Lease, shall surrender the Leased Land to Dover free and clear of all liens and encumbrances, except Permitted Encumbrances and those approved by Dover during the Term. Except as set forth in, and subject to the provisions of the SEPA, upon termination of the Lease for any reason or upon Lessee’s desertion, vacation, abandonment of or eviction from the Premises, (1) Lessee shall, at its sole cost and expense, (i) remove all of its personal property, equipment, fixtures, goods or other personal property maintained within or on the Premises, (ii) remove any appurtenances, including foundations, footers, supports, and structures (including the Facility) placed on the Premises by Lessee and (iii) backfill any holes or excavations with clean fill material that occur from the removal of the items in the preceding clause (ii) (“Restoration”), and (2) the Term shall remain in effect for not more than nine (9) months after such termination (with rent continuing to be due and payable by Lessee in the amount provided in Section 1.03(b)) in order to permit Lessee to complete its obligations under the preceding clause (1); provided, however, that Lessee may, upon notice to Dover, terminate this Lease at any time prior to the expiration of the nine (9) month period provided Lessee has completed its obligations set forth in the preceding clause (1). (b) In order to secure the Restoration obligation, fifteen (15) years after the Construction Start Up Date, Lessee shall provide Dover with a letter of credit or bond (“Surety”) in the amount of the estimated costs to complete the Restoration (“Restoration Costs”). To determine the amount of the Restoration Costs, Lessee shall provide Dover with a list of at least four 6

Página 16

contractors qualified to provide estimates for the costs of the Restoration and Dover shall approve at least three of the contractors within (30) Business Days after receipt of the list. In the event, that Dover does not approve at least three contractors, Dover shall provide its reasons of disapproval and offer alternative contractors that are acceptable to Lessor. Lessor shall have three approved contractors each prepare an estimate of the costs to complete the Restoration and the average amount of the estimates prepared by the three contractors shall be the amount of the Restoration Costs for purposes of this Section 6.02(b). The costs of any such contractors shall be borne by Lessor. On each full calendar year thereafter, the security for the Restoration Costs shall be increased by an annual escalation rate of two and one-half percent (2.5%). The Surety is to remain in effect until the appropriate phase of decommissioning is complete and all associated costs have been paid in full, free from all liens and claims of contractors, subcontractors, mechanics, laborers, and materialmen. Lessee shall provide Dover with information and documentation to confirm the existence and maintenance of such security in favor of Dover within thirty (30) days of each anniversary of the date the original Surety is established. Section 6.03. Assignment by Dover. In no event shall Dover sell or assign Dover’s interest in the Leased Land unless Lessee has consented to said assignment or sale in writing and the transferee has fully assumed all of the obligations of Dover under this Lease. Section 6.04. Condemnation. (a) The parties represent and warrant that it is their intention that neither the Premises, Facility, nor any portion of the foregoing, shall be subject to a condemnation action or proceeding by the City for the purpose of seizing property for a public use at anytime during the Term. However, the balance of the provisions of this Section 6.04 apply in the event that circumstances affecting the Premises and/or Facility substantially change in the future to the extent that a condemnation action or proceeding affecting the Premises and/or Facility becomes necessary. (b) If any portion of the Premises is taken pursuant to condemnation, eminent domain, or exercise of a similar power, or transfer under threat of such compulsory transfer or taking by a governmental authority having jurisdiction (other than Dover), then this Lease shall terminate as to such portion. Upon a taking of any portion of the Premises, Rent shall be reduced by an amount equal to the product of the (a) Rent otherwise payable under this Lease, multiplied by (b) a fraction, the numerator of which is the square footage of the Premises taken and the denominator of which is the square footage of Premises immediately prior to such taking. If the remaining portion of the Premises is insufficient for Lessee’s use as determined by Lessee in Lessee’s sole and absolute discretion, Lessee shall have the right to terminate this Lease upon providing thirty (30) 7

Página 17

days’ written notice thereof to Dover. In the event of a complete taking, this Lease shall terminate and be of no further force or effect. (c) Both Lessee and Dover shall have the right to participate in any condemnation proceeding. Each shall notify the other promptly of any contemplated or threatened condemnation proceeding of which it shall become aware and shall keep the other informed of developments with respect thereto. Section 6.05. Compliance Inspections. Dover shall have the right to enter the Premises (a) at any time, in the case of an emergency, and (b) otherwise at reasonable times upon not less than five (5) Business Days prior written notice and during normal business hours, in each case for the purpose of inspecting the condition of the Leased Land and for verifying compliance by Lessee with this Lease and all applicable laws and required permits. Lessee may require any parties entering upon the Premises to adhere to Lessee’s rules and regulations relating to the safety and operation of the Facility other than in the event of emergencies where adherence to such rules and regulations would be impracticable.

This indemnification shall extend to all claims by any person or party for death or injury to persons and damage to any property, and to legal expense, including reasonable attorneys' fees and court costs, to the extent that the same arise from any negligence or willful misconduct of Dover, its contractors or any of the other Dover Parties.

Dover shall cooperate with Lessee in obtaining any easements from third parties for utility services, including the execution and delivery of any easement agreements. Lessee may arrange for and provide such utility and other services to or for the benefit of the Premises as Lessee deems appropriate and may execute, deliver and record such agreements in furtherance thereof as Lessee deems appropriate. ARTICLE IX ENVIRONMENTAL COMPLIANCE Section 9.01. No Hazardous Materials. Lessee shall not cause or knowingly permit any hazardous materials or substances (as such terms are defined in any environmental laws, rules or regulations) ("Hazardous Materials") to be generated, produced, brought upon, used, stored, treated, discharged, released, spilled or disposed of on, in, under or about the Premises in violation of applicable laws by Lessee, its affiliates, agents, employees, contractors, sublessees, assignees or invitees. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Lessee shall be permitted to bring upon, use and store certain Hazardous Materials customarily used in the construction, maintenance, operation, repairing, improving, replacing and decommissioning of the Facility by Lessee provided Lessee complies with all environmental laws in connection therewith. Section 9.02. Indemnification for Hazardous Materials.

Página 19

respect to matters for which Lessee is liable). Nothing contained herein shall preclude Lessee’s right to contest, by appropriate proceedings, the validity, or applicability to the Premises, of any law or requirement of any public authority, or direction of any public officer. Dover, at Dover's sole cost and expense, shall cooperate fully with Lessee in any environmental action taken by Lessee with respect to the Premises in furtherance of Lessee’s obligations under this Lease, including, without limitation, executing and delivering to Lessee any submissions to, providing information to, and complying with all requirements of, the Delaware Natural Resources Commission. Dover shall indemnify, defend and save harmless Lessee, its officials, officers and employees, in their official and personal capacities, from all losses, fines, penalties, costs, suits, proceedings, liabilities, damages, claims and actions of any kind arising out of or in any way connected with any costs, losses or liability arising out of spills or discharges of Hazardous Materials, violations of Environmental Laws or other conditions of the Premises which occurred, or were in existence, prior to the commencement or after the end of the Term or are otherwise caused by Dover. Section 9.03. Survival of Provisions. The provisions of this Article shall survive the expiration or termination of this Lease. ARTICLE X EVENT OF DEFAULT BY LESSEE Section 10.01. Default. Lessee shall be in default under this Lease only if, during the Term, Lessee shall fail to observe any requirement, obligation (including payment of Rent), agreement, covenant or condition of this Lease, and any such failure shall continue for thirty (30) days after written notice from Dover specifying the basis for such default (each, an "Event of Default"); provided, however, that in the event such failure cannot reasonably be remedied by Lessee within thirty (30) days, no Event of Default shall occur if Lessee commences to remedy the default within the thirty (30) day time period and prosecutes the same to completion with diligence. Section 10.02. Notice, Opportunity to Cure. Subject to the provisions of Article XI, (1) upon an Event of Default (or for so long as such Event of Default continues), Dover, without waiving any other rights available to Dover at law or in equity, may either (a) give Lessee thirty (30) days` written notice of termination of this Lease or (b) without terminating this Lease, give Lessee notice of Dover's intention to re-enter and take possession of the Premises pursuant to legal process, and (2) the giving of either of such notices to Lessee shall precede the termination of Lessee’s right to possession of the Premises under this Lease, and give rise to the rights of Dover to exercise all other available legal remedies without discharging Lessee from any of its liabilities or obligations hereunder, except those that cannot be satisfied in the absence of possession of the Premises by Lessee. ARTICLE XI LESSEE’S FINANCING Section 11.01. Lessee’s Right to Encumber. Lessee may, from time to time and at any time, without Dover’s consent or joinder, encumber its interest in this Lease and the leasehold estate hereby created with one or more deeds of trust, mortgages, or other 10

Página 20

lien instruments to secure any borrowings or obligations of Lessee or Lessee’s affiliates. Any such mortgages, deeds of trust, and/or other lien instruments, and the indebtedness secured thereby, provided that Dover has been given notice thereof as set forth in Section 12.05, are herein referred to as “Permitted Mortgages,” and the holder or other beneficiary thereof are herein referred to as “Permitted Mortgagees.” No lien of Lessee upon its interest in this Lease and the leasehold estate hereby created shall encumber or affect in any way the interest of Dover hereunder or in and to the Leased Property, except insofar as Dover is obligated to take certain actions as to Permitted Mortgagees as provided in this Article 11. The Facility and the leasehold estate created hereby shall at all times remain separate and apart from the title to the Leased Land for all purposes relating to the interests of any mortgagees of Dover and Lessee. Section 11.02. Mortgagee Protective Provisions. If Lessee encumbers its interest in this Lease and the leasehold estate hereby created with liens as above provided, then Lessee shall notify Dover thereof, providing with such notice the name and mailing address of the Permitted Mortgagee in question, Dover shall, upon request, acknowledge receipt of such notice, and for so long as the Permitted Mortgage in question remains in effect the following shall apply: (a) Dover shall give to the Permitted Mortgagee a duplicate copy of any and all notices which Dover gives to Lessee pursuant to the terms hereof, including notices of default, and no such notice shall be effective until such duplicate copy is actually received by such Permitted Mortgagee, in the manner provided in Section 12.05. (b) There shall be no cancellation, surrender, or modification of this Lease by joint action of Dover and Lessee without the prior written consent of the Permitted Mortgagee. (c) if an Event of Default should occur hereunder, then Dover specifically agrees that: (1) Dover shall not enforce or seek to enforce any of its rights, recourses, or remedies, including but not limited to termination of this Lease or Lessee’s right to possession hereunder, until a notice specifying the Default and the event giving rise to such Default has been received by the Permitted Mortgagee, in the manner provided in Section 12.05, and if the Permitted Mortgagee proceeds to cure the Event of Default within a period of 30 days after the later of receipt of such notice or the occurrence of such Event of Default, as to Events of Default which Permitted Mortgagee cannot reasonably cure within such time period, the Permitted Mortgagee, to the extent it is reasonably able to do so, commences curing such Event Default within such time period and thereafter diligently pursues such cure to completion, then any payments made and all things done by the Permitted Mortgagee to effect such cure shall be as fully effective to prevent the exercise of any rights, recourses, or remedies by Dover as if done by Lessee; 11

Página 21

(2) if the Event of Default is a nonmonetary default that a Permitted Mortgagee cannot reasonably cure without being in possession of the Premises, then for so long as the Permitted Mortgagee is diligently attempting to secure possession of the Premises (whether by foreclosure or other procedures), provided the Permitted Mortgagee cures any monetary Events of Defaults as well as any other Events of Defaults that are reasonably susceptible of then being cured by the Permitted Mortgagee, then Dover shall allow the Permitted Mortgagee such time as may be reasonably necessary under the circumstances to obtain possession of the Premises in order to cure such Event of Default, and during such time Dover shall not enforce or seek to enforce any of its rights, remedies or recourses hereunder; and (3) if the Event of Default is a non monetary default of such a nature that it is not reasonably susceptible of being cured by the Permitted Mortgagee, then Dover shall not enforce or seek to enforce any of its rights, remedies, or recourses hereunder so long as Permitted Mortgagee pays all Rent then due and thereafter keeps the monetary obligations of Lessee hereunder current and complies with those other provisions of this Lease which, by their nature, Permitted Mortgagee may then reasonably comply with. (d) Should the Lease be terminated for any reason other than expiration of the stated Term, then the Permitted Mortgagee shall have the right and option, exercisable by delivering notice to Dover not later than 60 days after receipt from Dover of written notice of such termination (which notice Dover agrees to give) to elect to receive, in its own name or in the name of its nominee or assignee, a new lease of the Premises for the unexpired balance of the Term on the same terms and conditions as herein set forth, having the same priority as this Lease, and Dover agrees to execute such new lease provided such Permitted Mortgagee shall undertake forthwith to remedy any then uncured Event of Default reasonably susceptible by its nature of being remedied by such Permitted Mortgagee, including the payment of any amount due hereunder. (e) No Permitted Mortgagee shall be or become liable to Dover as an assignee of this Lease until such time as such Permitted Mortgagee, by foreclosure or other procedures, shall either acquire the rights and interests of Lessee under this Lease or shall actually take possession of the Premises, and upon such Permitted Mortgagee’s assigning such rights and interests to another party or upon relinquishment of such possession, as the case may be, such Permitted Mortgagee shall have no further such liability. (f) From time to time during the Term, Dover shall, within ten (10) Business Days after receipt, execute and deliver to a Permitted Mortgagee, or a prospective Permitted Mortgagee, any estoppel, nondistrubance agreement, recognition agreement, consent, lien waiver or other commercially reasonable document requested by any Permitted Mortgagee or prospective Permitted Mortgagee, in each case in form and substance reasonably acceptable to Dover. 12

Página 22

(g) Dover shall not encumber the Premises (or any interest therein) without obtaining Lessee’s prior written consent. Lessee may condition its consent to any encumbrance on fee title to the Leased Land on the execution by the fee lender of a subordination agreement or a nondisturbance/recognition agreement in form and substance acceptable to all Permitted Mortgagees. 11.03. Modifications. If any prospective Permitted Mortgagee requires modifications to this Lease as a condition to granting a Permitted Mortgage, Dover shall not unreasonably withhold its consent to such modifications, provided that Dover shall not be required to consent to any such modification pertaining to Rent, the Term, or any other material economic provision of this Lease, nor to any modification which would materially decrease Dover’s rights or increase its burdens or obligations hereunder. Any out of pocket cost incurred by Dover in connection with any such proposed modification shall be borne by Lessee. ARTICLE XII MISCELLANEOUS Section 12.01. Amendments. The parties hereto may amend this Lease only in writing. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the term of this Lease shall be, and is hereby, extended to coincide with any extension of the terms of the SEPA. Section 12.02. Severability.

Real-time or routine communications concerning Facility operations shall be exempt from this Section. Section 12.06. Mutual Waiver of Subrogation. Each party hereby waives any and all claims which arise or which may arise in its favor and against the other party hereto during the Term or any extension or renewal thereof for any and all loss of, or damage to, any of its property located within or upon or constituting a part of the Facility, to the extent that such loss or damage is recovered under an insurance policy or policies and to the extent such policy or policies contain provision permitting such waiver of claims. Each party agrees to request its insurers to issue policies containing such provisions and if any extra premium is payable therefor, the party which would benefit from the provision shall have the option to pay such additional premium in order to obtain such benefit. Section 12.07. Standard of Approvals. If and to the extent the consent, approval or similar action of a party is required under this Lease, such consent, approval or similar action shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed unless otherwise expressly provided in the terms of this Lease. Section 12.08. Estoppel Certificate. Dover and Lessee shall execute and deliver to each other, within 15 Business Days after request therefor by the other party, or by any Permitted Mortgagee, a certificate addressed as indicated by the requesting party and stating: (a) whether or not this Lease is in full force and effect; (b) whether or not this Lease has been modified or amended in any respect, and submitting copies of such modifications or amendments; (c) whether or not there are any existing defaults or Events of Default hereunder known to the party executing the certificate, and specifying the nature thereof; (d) whether or not any particular Article, Section, or provision of this Lease has been complied with; and (e) such other matters as may be reasonably requested by the requesting party.

C. Background Information and Need for Protection 1) The City of Dover Electric Transmission System is subject to a variety of natural and man-made hazards. Among these are lightning, wind, snow, animals, vehicular accidents, vandalism and human error. These same hazards are present in residential and commercial electric systems but to a lesser degree due to the smaller size and protected environment of these systems. 2) The electric problems that can result from the preceding hazards are principally short circuits, grounded conductors and broken or open conductors. All of these problems require that the affected equipment be de-energized as quickly as possible to minimize equipment damage, to protect Grid security, to lessen the adverse impact on Customers and to remove any hazard to the public and City personnel. 3) The Generator Owner has the responsibility to protect both his own Facility and the impact of his Facility on the Grid. D. Basic Protection Goals The protection system at the Point of Interconnection should be designed and operated with the following desired goals in mind: 1) Protect the City of Dover Electric Transmission System from the adverse impacts of the parallel generator. 2) Protect the parallel generator from faults or other disturbances in the City of Dover Electric Transmission System. 3) Disconnect the parallel generator from the City of Dover Electric Transmission System for abnormal operating conditions. 4) Permit the desired range of power transfer without false operation. E. Protection General Requirements 1) The generator and Point of Interconnection protection schemes shall be continuously monitored and in a functional state. The generator shall immediately be disconnected from the City of Dover Electric Transmission System for any condition that would make the protection scheme inoperable. 2) The operating power for the generator and Point of Interconnection protection schemes and the control power used to disconnect the generator from the City of Dover Electric Transmission System must not be directly dependent on City of Dover Electric Transmission System power. 3) The generator protection shall be designed to automatically and immediately disconnect the generator from the City of Dover Electric Transmission System if the source circuit from the City is lost, irrespective of connected loads or other generators on the circuit. 4) The generator shall be equipped with protective equipment (hardware or software) to prevent the generator from energizing a de-energized City of Dover Electric Transmission circuit. 5) Parallel operation must cease immediately and automatically for abnormal operating voltage, frequency, harmonic content or power flow. Parallel operation must also cease for loss of a phase or improper phase sequence. Voltage sensing shall be performed on all three phases. 6) Protection at the Point of Interconnection must detect and isolate the Facility from the City of Dover

Página 69

Electric Transmission System for a fault condition in the Generation Owner’s Facility. 7) Protection at the Point of Interconnection must detect and isolate from the City of Dover Electric Transmission System the Generation Owner’s Facility for a fault condition on the City of Dover Electric Transmission System circuit that supplies the generator site. 8) The protection scheme should permit the desired range of power transfer without false operation. The protection scheme should also prevent excessive or unnecessary tripping that would adversely affect the City’s service reliability to other Customers or Generator Owners. 9) The generator protection or protection at the Point of Interconnection must insure that the generator is disconnected from the City of Dover Electric Transmission System before any automatic re-energizing of the City of Dover Electric Transmission System supply circuit. 10) The protection at the Facility must recognize and disconnect the Generator from the City of Dover Electric Transmission System if the generator is islanded with other Customer load. 11) Any automatic re-connection of the generator to the Grid following a loss and subsequent restoration of the City of Dover Electric Transmission System source must occur only after the City of Dover Electric Transmission System has stabilized. Note: This preceding list of design requirements is not intended to be all-inclusive. Other hazards and conditions may need to be taken into consideration by the design engineer based upon the circumstances, the specific site, the Generation Owner’s needs and other appropriate criteria. F. Grid Interconnection Point Information 1) The proposed 10MW Solar Photovoltaic Generation Facility is to be located in the northern portion of the Garrison Tract located on the north side of White Oak Road and east of US Highway 1, in the City of Dover, Kent County, Delaware. This places the proposed 69 kV tap (new 3-way switch and pole) on the Cartanza – Dover Downs 69kV Line approximately halfway between Cartanza Substation and Dover Downs Substation. This Cartanza-Dover Downs line is also referred to as line 9080. From the new 69 kV tap, approximately ½ mile of aboveground 69 kV line will be built to the Facility’s substation. The actual physical Point of Interconnection is defined as the 69 kV line conductor tail (the portion of the conductor that extends through the dead-end shoe), excluding the connector, located on the Facility installed dead-end structure at the interconnection substation. . The Facility will own the connection, and hardware connecting the Facility to the conductor tail. Some details on the City of Dover Electric Transmission System are noted below to assist the Generator Owner in the design of their Facility. The City of Dover Electric Transmission System consists of multiple 69kV circuits, substations, local generation, and a 230kV interconnection to Delmarva Power and Light.

majority of faults (short circuits) are temporary in nature such as a flashed insulator or a tree limb that brushed against a line. Once the fault has been detected and the affected circuit de-energized, the circuit can normally be successfully re-energized. This re-energization or automatic reclose could occur after the line has been dead for 0.20 second, up to a minute or more. The net result of automatic line restoration is to restore the integrity of the Grid and to reduce any Customer outage time. The Generator Owner will have to take into account the impact of automatic circuit restoration in the design and operation of their Facility. 3) The Generator Owner may request the City to delay any high speed reclosing on the City of Dover Electric Transmission System supply circuit to allow the Parallel Operation generator sufficient time to remove itself from an islanded or de-energized circuit prior to automatic reclose. Since delaying the automatic reclose time degrades the level of service to other Customers on the circuit, the City may limit any delay of the automatic reclose to a few seconds or less. Alternatively, the Generator Owner may request that a direct transfer trip scheme be added to remove the interconnected generator from service prior to automatic reclosing by using communication equipment between the Generator Owner’s site and the City. Similarly, the Generator Owner may request that a synchronizing check or reclose-blocking scheme be installed on the City’s source circuit to prevent out of phase reclosing. The Generator owner is responsible for all costs associated with the installation and maintenance of these requested modifications. G. Interface Transformer 1) In most cases, an Interface Transformer will be required to interconnect the Generator Owner’s Facility to the City of Dover Electric Transmission System voltage. In addition to matching the proper voltage level, this Interface Transformer will decrease possible voltage variations seen by other City Customers, attenuate any possible harmonics and reduces the effects of fault currents. 2) The proposed 10MW Solar Photovoltaic Generation Facility Interface Transformer should be configured for nominal 69kV operation with a de-energized tap changer ranging from -5% to +5% of nominal in 2.5% steps. The transformer should be connected in Delta on the 69kV winding. A special zero-sequence/over/under voltage detection scheme will be required for this configuration (see details under heading “Protection Scheme Details”). The Transformer must be sized to support maximum anticipated power transfers to and from the City of Dover Electric Transmission System. H. Power Quality Considerations 1) The Generator Owner’s Facility shall be designed and operated in such a manner that there are no noticeable adverse impacts to system voltage, frequency, harmonics etc. 2) The parallel generator shall not cause excessive voltage flicker on the City of Dover Electric Transmission System. (Voltage flicker is defined as variations in system voltage magnitude and duration sufficient to allow visual observation of a change in electric light source intensity.) Any flicker shall not exceed the “Borderline of Irritation” Curve, Fig. 10.3, as defined in IEEE Std. 519-1992, Recommended Practices and Requirements for Harmonic Control in Electric Power Systems. The City reserves the right to require tighter flicker control in situations where other Customer’s equipment or operations (computers, instrumentation, process controls, etc.) are impacted. 3) The parallel generator could introduce harmonics distortion into the City of Dover Electric Transmission System if equipment such as DC to AC inverters are used in the Facility. (Harmonic distortion is defined as continuous distortion of the normal 60 Hz. sine wave typically caused by nonlinear loads or by inverters, measured in total harmonic distortion, THD.) Any voltage harmonic distortion shall not exceed the limitation as defined in IEEE Std. 519-1992, Recommended Practices and Requirements for Harmonic Control in Electric Power Systems, Table 11.1. The limits vary dependent on the voltage. In addition, the level of harmonic current that the Generator Owner shall

inject into the City of Dover Electric Transmission System should not exceed the level specified in Table 10.3 in IEEE Std. 519-1992. 4) Any DC to AC inverter should not inject DC current greater that 0.5% of the rated inverter capacity into the Point of Interconnection during both normal and abnormal operation. I. Power Factor Considerations 1) A parallel generator shall not adversely impact the power factor of the City of Dover Electric Transmission System at or near the Point of Interconnection. The generator type impacts the power factor. The inverters of most DC generators are designed to operate close to unity power factor. Induction generators absorb VARs from the City of Dover Electric Transmission System. Synchronous generators can either absorb or produce VARs thus having a varying power factor depending upon excitation control. 2) The City of Dover Electric Transmission System requires that the power factor of the Facility at the point of Interconnection be maintained in the range of 98.5% lagging to 98.5% leading. J. Inverter Considerations 1) The Generator Owner must use a non-islanding type inverter as defined in IEEE 929 2000, IEEE Recommended Practices for Utility Interface of Photovoltaic (PV) Systems. 2) Non-islanding type inverters are inherently designed to automatically disconnect from the Grid if the Generator Owner’s site becomes isolated from the City of Dover Electric Transmission System. This type inverter also prevents the Generator owner from inadvertently supplying other City Customers in an isolated Island situation. 3) The inverter output specifications must meet the power quality considerations detailed under heading “Power Quality Considerations”. K. Communication Facilities Considerations 1) The City will provide and install optical fiber for data communication purposes. The city will install a 48 fiber count ADSS splice case near the location of the existing fiber. The City will install a 24 strand ADSS fiber optic cable from this splice case to a 24 strand patch panel with ST connections provided by Generation owner at the substation. The Generation Owner will incorporate this communication system during design and construction. Additional fiber will be required at the Dover Downs substation. The city will install a 48 ADSS fiber strand cable from DuPont Hwy to the Dover Downs substation. The existing 24 strand patch panel will be replaced with a 48 strand patch panel to incorporate the pilot wire relaying. All cost of this installation incurred by the City will be paid by Generation Owner. a. No voice circuits will be provided and this data communication will be limited to City of Dover facilities only. No interconnection with other voice/data sources will be allowed. 2) The Facility shall provide the following equipment: Fiber Optic Interface RFL IMUX 2000 Mini-DACS, Model 2000CCM with 1300NM single mode fiber optic interface Fiber Patch/Splice Panel Corning Cable Systems – Qty 1 Closet connector housing Part # CCH-02U; Qty 4 Closet connector

The Point of Interconnection metering shall not be equipped with detents. 9) The Generator Owner may, at its sole option and cost, install or request to have the City install additional metering equipment to meet any special needs that the Generator Owner may have. M. Monitoring and Control Considerations 1) The Generator Owner shall purchase and install a Remote Terminal Unit (RTU) per the specifications below to enable the City to monitor the status of the data points listed in below at the Generator Owner’s site and to control certain breakers, if required.

All 69kV Relays 2. All 69kV Power Meters 3) City personnel shall be responsible for programming the RTU and Master Station. All costs will be borne by the Generation Owner. N. Event Recording Considerations 1) The Generator Owner shall purchase and install recording equipment to monitor the performance of their protection and control equipment for those parallel generator sites interconnected with the City of Dover Electric Transmission System. 2) The City reserves the right to specify the voltages, currents, device status, etc. to be monitored and recorded by this event recording equipment.

6) Digital fault recording equipment should be time synchronized to a reference traceable to the National Institute of Standards and Technology. O. Performance Considerations 1) The interconnection of parallel generation with the City of Dover Electric Transmission System is permissible only if the system voltage, frequency and current flow at the Point of Interconnection are within normal limits. Parallel operation must cease immediately and automatically for abnormal voltage, frequency, or current flow as defined below. 2) Parallel operation must also cease automatically for operation outside the power quality limitations detailed in Technical Design Considerations, Section VIII - G. 3) The Generator Owner’s equipment shall be operated in such a manner that the voltage levels on the City’s Grid remain within the operating limits defined by ANSI C84.1. 4) The generator must immediately and automatically cease parallel operation and disconnect from the City of Dover Electric Transmission System if the voltage at the Point of Interconnection exceeds the limits defined below: DC Generating Systems with Non-Islanding Inverters a) Trip in 0.1 Second for V < 50% b) Trip within 0.1 to 30 Seconds for 50% = V < 88% c) Trip within 0.1 to 30 Seconds for 106% < V < 137% d) Trip in 0.03 Second for 137% = V (Specific voltage and time delay set points will be determined for each generator installation) Notes: a) Trip time refers to the time between when the abnormal voltage condition occurs and the generator being disconnected from the City of Dover Electric Transmission System. b) Three-phase voltage sensing shall be used. 5) The Generator may reconnect automatically to the Grid after a 60 seconds has elapsed if both the system voltage has returned to normal range and the Grid is stabilized.. 6) The generator must immediately and automatically cease parallel operation and disconnect from the City of Dover Electric Transmission System if the operating frequency exceeds the limits defined below: DC Generating Systems with Non-Islanding Inverters a) Trip in 0.1 Second for F < 59.3 Hz. b) Trip in 0.1 Second for F > 60.5 Hz. (Set points taken from IEEE Std. 929.) 8) The inverters of DC generating systems shall obtain their commutation reference from the City of Dover Electric Transmission System and thus synchronization will not be an issue. 9) The generator must automatically and immediately disconnect from the City of Dover Electric Transmission System if the source from the Grid is lost. This separation must occur irrespective of connected load or other generators on the circuit. 10) The generator must be disconnected from the City of Dover Electric Transmission System before any automatic reclose or re-energization of the City source. 11) For a fault condition on the City source circuit that interconnects with the Generator Owner’s Facility, the Generator Owner must have protective relaying to detect this condition and disconnect

Página 76

the generator from the Grid. The required operating time of the protection scheme is dependent on many variables such as voltage class, generator stability concerns, primary vs. backup relaying, coordination requirements with City relaying scheme, etc. The City will work with the Generator Owner and ascertain the performance requirements on a case by case basis. 12) In cases where clearing time from the Generator Site is critical, transfer trip from the City end of the circuit to the Generator Owner’s site may be required. 13) For a fault condition within the Generator Owner’s Facility, the Generator Owner must have protective relaying to detect and isolate the fault from the City of Dover Electric Transmission System. The required clearing time of the Facility’s protection schemes is dependent on many variables such as voltage class and the operating time of any City protection schemes that reach into the Facility. The City will review the proposed operating time of the Facility’s protection schemes and ascertain the performance requirements on a case by case basis. P. Protection Scheme Details 1) Protective relays shall be microprocessor type with integral trip record and fault recording, self- checking and remote communications. Remote communications should be provided through a digital switching device to allow a single communication line to service multiple protective 69kv relays. 2) All protective relays must have the desired sensitivity and speed for its intended application and be of utility grade. The City can provide feedback to the Generator Owner in this regard. 3) All equipment, lines and busses operating at 69kV shall be protected by two independent protective schemes. 4) Primary and backup protection schemes shall be supplied via independent current/potential circuits and independently protected DC control circuits. Potential circuits will be considered independent if they emanate from different windings from the same potential transformer. 5) DC circuits supplying protective relaying schemes shall be continuously monitored and fused separately from any other DC control circuits. Loss of any control power bus including DC trip and close busses of each breaker shall also be monitored and alarmed to a manned location so that corrective action can be taken. Relay failure alarms shall be handled in a similar manner. See section M. Monitoring and Control Considerations for duplicate alarms that are required by Dover. 6) All protective relay systems, equipment, design, operation and maintenance shall be in accordance with all applicable Federal, State and Local requirements, National and Regional Reliability Criteria and Industry Recognized Standards and Guidelines. 7) Primary 69kV line protection shall be provided by a SEL-311L line differential relay. This will communicate via optical fiber to both remote line end relays (at Carranza and Dover Downs) to form a 3-terminal line differential scheme. On-board transfer trip capabilities will be used to enable tripping of the local 69kV and intermediate voltage breakers (e.g. 12 or 34.5 kV, based on the final Facility design) breakers despite the weak infeed inherent with an inverter source. 8) Additional weak infeed protection shall be provided by a logical “and” condition when both remote line end breakers are open. “b” contact status from both of these breakers will be provided via the communications capabilities onboard the SEL-311L scheme to trip the local 69kV and intermediate voltage breakers when both line ends are open. This will help protect against an islanding condition and force synchronization back to the plant. 9) Local 69kV breaker and intermediate voltage breaker shall use auxiliary contacts such that the intermediated voltage breaker will trip and be inhibited from closing whenever the 69kV breaker is

Página 77

open. 10) Backup line protection shall be provided by a SEL-351 relay. Logic inside the relay will be configured to provide undervoltage protection, overvoltage protection, and zero-sequence voltage protection. 11) Transformer protection shall be provided by a transformer differential relay and a separate overcurrent relay. SEL-587 and SEL-551 relays are recommended. Fault pressure relay protection should also be provided. 12) Local 69kV breaker closing shall be supervised by a Hot Line Dead Bus (Dead Customer) scheme. 13) Bushing Current transformers (CTs) used for protective relaying on the 69kV side should have the following minimum specifications: Type Multi-ratio bushing CT Ratio 1200/5 Accuracy Class C800 14) Potential Transformers (PTs) used for protective relaying on the 69kV side should have the following minimum specifications: Type CCVT dual winding Ratio 40,250 – 115/67.08 Volts Accuracy/Burden 0.6 MWXYZ 200 VA 15) 69kV Breaker Minimum Specifications are below. A Siemens type SP2 is recommended to maintain consistency with the City of Dover Electric Transmission System. Rated Maximum Voltage 72.5 kV Rated Continuous Current 1200 A Frequency 60 HZ Rated Short Circuit Current 40 kA Full Wave Impulse Withstand 350 kV Rated Interrupting Time 3.0 cycles 16) Line Protection relay settings will be provided by the City of Dover prior to commissioning. Transformer and bus relay/differential settings will be the responsibility of the Generation Owner; however, the City of Dover will be provided the settings and they may review these settings to evaluate any potential impact on the transmission system. Q. Maintenance requirements 1) Proper maintenance of electrical equipment is important to ensure a safe and reliable electrical system. 2) Electrical equipment in the Interconnect substation should be maintained, at a minimum, per the requirements in the latest edition of ANSI/NETA MTS-XXXX, including appendix B “frequency of Maintenance Tests”. The current edition is ANSI/NETA MTS-2007. Generation owner will provide the City of Dover a detailed 5-year maintenance schedule prior to facility commissioning and will update annually. 3) Revenue Metering Maintenance – will be performed by the Generation Owner. R. City of Dover Approvals 1) All designs and components of the 69kv system shall be approved by the City of Dover prior to purchase/installation.

Página 78

2) The City of Dover shall approve all third-party testing company(ies) prior to the commencement of work on any component/system related to the 69kv equipment. Such approval shall not be unreasonably withheld. 3) Commissioning tests will require an outage on the interconnection line segment; Dover reserves the right to mandate the days and times that this can be scheduled. 4) The Facility will develop a comprehensive commissioning test plan/procedure (plan) and submit this to the City of Dover for approval at a minimum of 30 days prior to the work. Dover will review and approve/disapprove this plan for any component/system that could directly impact the 69kv system, such approval shall not be unreasonably withheld. The Facility will be responsible for modifications to the plan until Dover accepts the plan. This shall be completed prior to commissioning. 5) During Dover’s design review other considerations/concerns may require additional components; Generator Owner will modify the Facility to incorporate these changes.

ATTACHMENT #4 Utiility Committee Meeting of 1/25/2010 69 KV DELIVERY SERVICE CLASSIFICATION TO THE GRID FOR WHITE OAK SOLAR ENERGY, LLC AVAILABILITY This tariff is available to the solar electric generating station owned by White Oak Solar Energy, LLC (“White Oak”) to transmit up to 10 MW AC of associated energy from the Point of Interconnection as defined by the Technical Requirements Exhibit to the Interconnection Agreement between White Oak Solar Energy, LLC and the City of Dover (“City”)(“White Oak/Dover Interconnection Point”) to the point of interconnection that the City maintains with Delmarva Power & Light (“DP&L”) pursuant to the Interconnection Agreement between DP&L and the City of Dover, Delaware dated September 12, 2004 (“Dover/DP&L Interconnection Point”). The City affirms and White Oak confirms that nothing in this tariff authorizes White Oak to make retail sales in the City’s service territory. The service provided under the tariff shall be electrically isolated from any other electric service, including retail supply provided to White Oak by the City under a different tariff. This tariff is available to provide access to the City’s networked system only for delivery of up to 10 MW AC to the Dover/DP&L Interconnection Point and is not available for service on other City non-networked facilities. This tariff shall apply to White Oak when service under this tariff is requested by White Oak. To request service, White Oak shall provide written notice to Dover no less than thirty (30) days prior to the date when it requires service. The reservation term shall be one year, subject to renewal annually by giving written notice to Dover no less than thirty (30) days prior to the expiration of the term. CHARACTER OF SERVICE The City is providing firm service on its networked system only under this tariff, which is normally operated as a three phase, sixty cycle, alternating current system at a nominal voltage of sixty-nine thousand (69,000) volts, line to line. The parties expressly agree that the City shall have no responsibility to White Oak for securing any necessary interconnection or other agreement(s) for the use of facilities beyond the City’s networked system, i.e., DP&L or the PJM Interconnection, LLC. The City shall own, operate, maintain and repair its system in accordance with Prudent Utility Practices. White Oak shall operate its electric generating facilities and interconnection facilities in accordance with Prudent Utility Practices. White Oak shall use the City’s networked system in accordance with Prudent Utility Practices. The City shall have no obligation to expand the capacity of its system to accommodate this transaction or to provide any new interconnection facilities of any kind, provided, however, that changes to the system or interconnection requested and fully paid for by White Oak may be made by the City, subject to design, safety, and system security considerations. REACTIVE POWER AND VOLTAGE CONTROL White Oak shall provide sufficient reactive capability and voltage control facilities to meet its reactive power requirements and adequately maintain voltage levels and stability. White Oak shall provide sufficient facilities to maintain a unity (1.0 per unit) power factor at the White Oak/Dover Interconnection Point, based upon projected peak reactive demand measured at the Metering Point and subject to the criteria in the following paragraph. White Oak shall operate so as to maintain a power factor at the Metering Point that is comparable to the average power factor that Dover maintains in its service area, but in no case shall the White Oak monthly peak one-hour interval power factor fall below 98.5%. If White Oak fails to meet this power factor requirement, Dover may install, at White Oak’s cost, capacitors or other equipment to maintain a unity power factor at the White Oak/Dover Interconnection Point. RATES The rate for services hereunder shall be $0.23 per kW-month of service requested for up to 10,000 kW per month, plus charges imposed for reactive power and voltage regulation as provided above, plus Line Losses, commencing when service under this tariff is requested by White Oak. The monthly rate shall be set for a one year period starting with the first day of the month for which this service is requested. The first and

Página 85

last month’s service shall be prorated on a daily basis whereby White Oak shall pay only for those contiguous days for which the service is requested. If White Oak exceeds the kW reservation of service requested in the notice, the rate for service shall be $1.00 per kW-month for the month in which the reservation was exceeded. LOSSES Line Losses. White Oak shall bear responsibility for line losses from the White Oak/Dover Interconnection Point to the Dover/DP&L Interconnection Point at the rate of 1%. Losses shall be taken by adjusting the quantities at the White Oak/Dover Interconnection Point (Metering Point quantities net of Interconnection Facilities Losses) and multiplying the kW and kWh quantities for purposes of reporting White Oak Generating Station quantities to the PJM Interconnection, LLC and DP&L. All revenue metering equipment, including the revenue meter, the metering CTs and VTs are owned by White Oak. These quantities are compensated by the meter to incorporate the Line Losses that are a part of this tariff such that the Solar Unit output quantities reported to DP&L and PJM at the DP&L/Dover Interconnection Point are net of losses. White Oak shall provide pulse outputs for metering and adequate space for meters and/or communications facilities to report on Solar Unit operations. PURCHASE POWER ADJUSTMENT This tariff shall not be subject to the Purchase Power Adjustment. PUBLIC UTILITY TAX In addition to the charges for this service classification, a surcharge will apply to recover any tax imposed by governmental authority upon provision of transmission services for electricity. RATE CHANGES The rates stated may be adjusted from time to time by Dover to reflect changes in the cost of service provided under this tariff. RULES AND REGULATIONS/MUNICIPAL ORDINANCES The General Rules and Regulations of the City of Dover for electric service which are published in the Dover Electric Service Handbook shall apply to service rendered under this service classification. OPERATING CONDITIONS Service provided under this tariff requires the following additional conditions. 1. White Oak shall communicate and coordinate with the City system dispatch office at all times and especially when the Solar Unit is dispatched, synchronized, operated, and released. 2. The City has an RTU for its SCADA system installed at the Solar Unit to receive real time generating station net MW output information (analog transducer) at its dispatch center. This quantity is one of the values used to produce a real time value for City of Dover net system load.
