From: Ian ClarkTo: Todd Shea; Paul NolanSubject: Re: Mousam OperationsDate: Thursday, July 26, 2018 8:26:19 AM

Morning Todd,

Any thoughts on this before you send to the board? If there are changes that could be madethat would better our chances, let me know.

On Tue, Jul 24, 2018 at 10:50 AM, Ian Clark <[email protected]> wrote:Todd,

Thanks for the call today. As noted, here's what we're looking for. Please providefeedback/changes as you think are warranted.

-We'd like the board to know that we are making significant progress with relicensing.FERC has been largely agreeable to our strategy and we are seeing signficant savings overthe KLPD consultant reports.

-Estimated Study Costs are going to be about 1/5th the expected costs that the Wright Pierceand GZA reports stated.

-It would be beneficial for KLPD to work with us.

-Worth stressing - the liability of decommissioning will be 100% on KLPD. FERC is highlyunlikely to let KLPD abandon the dams in place.

So with that...

AFH would like to take over operations of the Projects from KLPD. Streamlining theoperations with the relicensing will help everyone.

AFH is looking for a 15-yr PPA at 9.5 cents per kwh. This will allow us to get financing forequipment upgrades and modification of the facilities.

We'd want the facilities in working condition - ie they need to be ready to run and repairsunderway need to be completed before the operations are transferred to us.

I'll think of some more things today as I hike. This will get us started though.

DRAFT - Initial Questions related to the AFH PPA concept suggested in email dated 7/26/18 from Ian

Clark

Is this a correct summary of the AFH proposal:

AFH operates dams under contract starting soon and they assume all costs of operation and

maintenance. We pay AFH 9.5 cents/kWh for all hydro power they produce at our dams for 15 years.

Key Question

Why would we pay more for hydro-power than for our current cost of hydro power, purchased power

from the grid, or our own local solar power?

General Questions:

Could/should we file for “surrender in place” with FERC now and see what FERC says in order to better

understand the present day actual costs of surrender or decommissioning and to be prepared, should

the AFH license not be issued? I have long felt that the $3M estimate to decommission was overstated

by Wright Pierce in order to be conservative. I would think we could just stop producing power and

leave the dams, or open the flood gates and demolish a portion to allow fish passage, if that were our

preference. These would possibly be lowest cost options, if we were allowed to do either.

It is important to know more precisely what our future costs relative to the dams might be without an

AFH agreement, in order to properly evaluate the AFH proposal, once it is formalized.

What are the USEIA and other indices saying about projections of future power costs in our area?

What is the breakdown of today’s current cost of power and future cost for each remaining contract

year with NextEra?

When will we have a better idea what vendors will offer us for future power pricing under contract?

What are our cash costs right now to operate the dams (fully loaded - Including costs of staff,

depreciation, bonds P&I)?

What is the likelihood that there will be money available to assist with dam decommissioning, if KLPD

chose to go that direction?

AFH

Why would we pay more for hydro-power than for our current cost of power or solar power? How do

we know what the cost / benefit might be of the conceptual AFH proposal?

Is AFH seeking an operating contract and/or an ownership transfer and/or a PPA?

Under the 15 year PPA, who would own the dams? What liability would KLPD retain during and after the

PPA contract or the title transfer or other proposed scenario?

What cash costs would continue under an AFH contract? What cash costs would go away?

What is the anticipated timing of our receipt of an AFH proposal with more detail, and roughly when

might we complete negotiations and begin implementation?

When would AFH propose to start operating Dams; or assume ownership and/or responsibility? What

items do they want fixed by KLPD?

What would be the costs to maintain/upgrade dams to meet AFH requests?

How much power will they guarantee to provide (minimum and maximum) and when? This is important

when considering our upgrade/maintenance costs required by AFH prior to and possibly after AFH

involvement.

Is the AFH concept proposal contingent on successful FERC licensing?

How many dams are included in the AFH concept?

Do we have any insight at this time into whether the studies that will be done by AFH are adequate to

ensure that the local environment will be protected?

Kilbourn 7/29/18
