A.3.1 This section intentionally left blank.

A.3.2.1 Term. Unless earlier terminated as set forth in section A.3.2.2 below, this agreement is effective on the date TVA signs (Effective Date), and will continue in effect through the end of the Award Period described below, except that the provisions of sections A.3.3.2 Access to Records, A.3.6.2 Distributor Monthly Data, A.3.7.3 Award Recovery, A.3.7.4 Final Adjustment and Recovery, A.3.9.3 Award Recovery, and A.3.10 Confidentiality below will continue in effect until the obligations of the parties under them are fulfilled.

A.3.2.2 If Customer’s Qualifying Plant has not achieved Commercial Operation by the 5th anniversary of the Effective Date, this agreement automatically terminates, except that the provisions of sections A.3.3.2 Access to Records, A.3.6.2 Monthly Data, A.3.7.3 Award Recovery, A.3.7.4 Final Adjustment and Recovery, A.3.9.3 Award Recovery, and A.3.10 Confidentiality will continue in effect until the obligations of the parties under them are fulfilled.

A.3.3.1 Customer’s Certification. Customer’s eligibility for the award provided for in section A.3.4 below is based on TVA’s determination that Customer meets the criteria of a Qualifying Customer at Customer’s Qualifying Plant. Such determination is based on information provided and certified by Customer.

A.3.3.2 Access to Records. Customer must keep and make available accurate records and books of accounts related to Customer’s Metrics, as well as data to support compliance with the terms and conditions of this agreement subject to the provisions of section A.3.10. Customer must allow Distributor, TVA, and their agents and employees, access, during normal working hours and upon advance reasonable notice and the signing of any necessary confidentiality documents, to all such books, records, and other documents of Customer until the completion of all close-out procedures respecting this Agreement and the final settlement and conclusion of all issues arising out of this agreement.

A.3.4 Award. Based on Customer’s projections and the information contained in this agreement, Customer will be eligible to receive an award in the form of monthly credits on Customer’s bill for firm power provided to the Qualifying Plant (Bill Credits) beginning on the sixteenth monthly power bill after the start of the Evaluation Period. Except as otherwise provided below, Distributor must apply the monthly Bill Credits for each year of the Award Period in amounts equal to 1/12 of the Maximum Annual Award set out in the table above.

Customer will not be eligible for and will not earn or receive any Bill Credits for any amount that exceeds the amount of Customer’s monthly power bill(s) attributable to Customer’s Qualifying Plant in any given month. In the event that Customer receives more than one power bill in any month for its Qualifying Plant, Distributor may distribute the Bill Credit among multiple power bills to ensure that the Investment Credit amount on any power bill does not exceed the total retail amount of that power bill.

A.3.5.1 Reporting. Within 60 days after the end of each 12-month period of the Evaluation Period, Customer must provide TVA a report certified by an authorized representative of the Customer (Certification) and verified by Distributor pursuant to section A.3.6.1 below, updating the information and projections provided in this agreement and showing Customer’s Metrics for the most recent Evaluation Period year. The Certification must be in a form specified by TVA.

A.3.5.2 Continuing Reporting Obligation. Customer must promptly notify Distributor and TVA of any material changes in the information provided in this agreement or its Certifications. Upon receipt of such notice, TVA may at that time take the steps outlined in section A.3.7 below.

A.3.6.1 Distributor Certification. Customer’s eligibility to receive the Bill Credits provided for in this agreement is based on information provided by Customer and, where applicable, verified by Distributor in this agreement and Certifications. Distributor must review Customer’s Certification each reporting year and, where requested by TVA, will certify the accuracy of certain items, including:

(a) Customer’s payment history under its power supply contract with Distributor,

(b) total kWh usage and highest Total Metered Demand of Customer’s Qualifying Plant for each of the previous 12 months excluding power purchased at real time prices, including but not limited to, 2-Part Real Time Pricing, Modified 2-Part Real Time Pricing, Interruptible Standby Power, Real Time Energy, and Start-Up & Testing Power, and

(c) whether Customer’s Qualifying Plant is a Nonconforming Load.

A.3.7.1 Award Adjustments. Immediately upon receipt of any notice pursuant to sections A.3.5.1 and A.3.5.2 above, TVA will calculate adjusted Maximum Annual Awards (Adjusted Awards) for the Evaluation Period. The Adjusted Awards will be calculated by applying the information, projections, and Metrics provided in Customer’s Certification or notice to the same formula that was used in calculating the Maximum Annual Awards set out in the tabulation in section A.3.4 above, except that the total kWh usage and highest Total Metered Demand for each month in the previous year will be used in the calculation in place of Customer’s projections for that period. The Adjusted Awards will also reflect the recovery of any Bill Credits received by the Customer during the Award Period for which the Customer was not qualified. If the Adjusted Awards are less than the Maximum Annual Awards for those years set out in section A.3.4 above, the sum of Customer’s monthly Bill Credits in the remaining Award Period years will be equal to the Adjusted Awards for the remaining Award Period minus the difference between the monthly Bill Credits Customer received and the amount that the Bill Credits would have been if they had been calculated using the Metrics provided in Customer’s Certification or notice. Notwithstanding TVA’s calculation of Adjusted Awards, Customer will not earn in any month Bill Credits greater than 1/12 the Maximum Annual Awards set out above.

A.3.7.2 Disqualification. TVA will use Customer’s Metrics and other information available to TVA during the Evaluation Period and Award Period to determine whether Customer remains eligible to participate in the Investment Credit. If at any time during the term of this agreement TVA determines that Customer ceases to qualify for the Investment Credit, the Bill Credits provided under A.3.4 above will be discontinued. If during the Award Period Customer provides certification that it again meets the eligibility requirements set forth in this agreement, the Bill Credits will resume. Customer will not be eligible for Bill Credits for those periods when it does not qualify.

Should Distributor provide notice to terminate its power supply contract effective prior to the completion of the Award Period, (a) Customer will cease to qualify for the Investment Credit pursuant to A.2.2 of this agreement, and (b) Customer will not be eligible for Bill Credits for those periods when it does not qualify. It is further recognized that Customer will not be required to repay any award amounts to TVA under section A.3.7.3 below solely as a result of such termination notice, so long as Customer did not receive Bill Credits during any period when it did not qualify for the Investment Credit.

A.3.7.3 Award Recovery. Customer will not be eligible to receive Bill Credits under section A.3.4 above and this agreement will immediately terminate if any of the following occurs:

(a) Customer projects not to achieve the required Minimum Capital Investment for the full Evaluation Period;

(b) Customer provides materially false information in this agreement or Certifications;

(c) Customer fails to notify TVA of material changes in information provided in this agreement or Certification;

{d) Customer materially breaches the power supply contract for Customer’s Qualifying Plant or materially breaches any overlay, supplement, or amendment to that contract, such that Distributor either suspends or terminates power supply or any product or other arrangements;

(e) Customer’s power supply contract otherwise is projected to expire or terminate or expires or is terminated prior to the completion of the Award Period without being renewed or replaced by a power supply contract meeting the requirements of this agreement; or

(f) Customer projects to cease or ceases commercial operation of its Qualifying Plant prior to the completion of the Award Period.

(g) Customer or Plant is projected to be non-qualifying for the remainder of the Award Period.

Promptly upon receipt of an invoice, Customer must immediately repay to Distributor any and all award amounts credited to Customer during any period when Customer was ineligible to receive Bill Credits as well as any and all award amounts in excess of those to which Customer was entitled based on its actual Metrics.

A.3.7.4 Final Adjustment and Recovery. Upon receipt of Customer’s final Certification and calculation of the corresponding Adjusted Award, Customer’s remaining monthly Bill Credits will be reduced by the difference between the monthly Bill Credits Customer received and the amount that the Bill Credits would have been if they had been calculated using the Metrics provided in Customer’s final Certification. In the event that the remaining Bill Credits are insufficient to recover the difference, Customer must immediately pay to Distributor the unrecovered balance of the difference.

A.3.7.5 Previous Arrangements. Plant may receive simultaneous Investment Credit Bill Credits from discrete agreements if the benefits are for correspondingly discrete evaluation periods and metrics.

A.3.8 This section intentionally left blank.

A.3.9.1 Customer Credit. Each month Distributor will apply the Bill Credit to Customer’s power bill(s). TVA will notify Distributor of (a) any adjustment to the Bill Credits provided for under section A.3.7.1 of this agreement and (b) any discontinuance of Bill Credits in accordance with sections A.3.7.2, A.3.7.3, or A.3.7.4 of this agreement.

A.3.9.2 Distributor Credit. TVA will apply a monthly credit to Distributor’s wholesale power bill equal to the Bill Credit applied by Distributor to Customer’s bill in that month.

A.3.9.3 Award Recovery. In the event that under the provisions of section A.3.7.3 of this agreement it is determined that Customer received Bill Credits for which it was not eligible, Distributor and TVA must fully cooperate in (a) endeavoring to collect from Customer any amounts due under said sections A.3.7.3 and/or A.3.7.4 and (b) making appropriate adjustments to Distributor’s wholesale power bill to pass through to TVA amounts collected from Customer. The obligations of this paragraph will survive any expiration or termination of this agreement until they are discharged.
