Power Factor MEDIUM COMMERCIAL ELECTRIC SERVICE UTILITY RATE SCHEDULE E-4 (Continued) For new or existing customers whose demand is expected to exceed or has exceeded 300 kilowatts for three consecutive months, the City has the option of installing V AR -hour or any other applicable metering to calculate a power factor. The City may remove such metering from the service of a customer whose demand has been below 200 kilowatts for four consecutive months. When such metering is installed, the monthly electric bill will include a "power factor penalty", if applicable. The penalty adjustment will be applied to a customer's bill prior to the computation of any primary voltage discount. The power factor penalty is applied by increasing the total energy and demand charges for any month by 0.25 percent (0.25%) for each one percent (1 %) that the monthly power factor of the customer's load was less than 95%. The monthly power factor is the average power factor based on the ratio of kilowatt hours to kilovoltampere hours consumed during the month. Where time-of-day metering is installed, the monthly power factor shall be the power factor coincident with the customer's maximum demand. 6. Changing Rate Schedules Customers may request a rate schedule change at any time, but only once during a twelve- month period ifthe change is between City of Palo Alto full-service rate schedules.

Power Factor UTILITY RATE SCHEDULE E-9 (Continued) For new or existing customers whose demand is expected to exceed or has exceeded 300 kilowatts for three consecutive months, CP AU has the option to install V AR-hour or any other applicable metering to calculate power factor. CP AU may remove such metering from the service of a customer whose demand has been below 200 kilowatts for four consecutive months. When such metering is installed, the monthly electric bill shall include a "power factor penalty'', if applicable. The penalty adjustment shall be applied to a customer's bill prior to the computation of any primary voltage discount. The power factor penalty is applied by increasing the total energy and demand charges for any month by 0.25 percent (0.25%) for each one percent (1 %) that the monthly power factor of the customer's load was less than 95%. The monthly power factor is the average power factor based on the ratio of kilowatt hours to kilovoltampere hours consumed during the month. Where time-of-day metering is installed, the monthly power factor shall be the power factor coincident with the customer's maximum demand. 6. Additional Charges If, as a result of nonperformance of the outside Energy Service Provider (ESP), (e.g. failure to schedule sufficient power), the City incurs additional costs through our contractual arrangements with PG&E, Northern California Power Agency (NCP A), Western Area Power Administration, or otherwise, we will pass all of these costs onto the ESP. Depending on the performance ofthe ESP, these charges could be excessive. The ESP may pass these charges onto the customer.

The energy component (market-based energy) is equal to the monthly NYMEX COB Futures Closing Price minus $0.0086 per kWh. NYMEX COB Futures Closing Price is the settlement price for the NYMEX COB futures contract on the last trading day of the month. The last day of trading is the fourth business day prior to the first day of the delivery month (e.g. June 1999, NYMEX COB futures contract trading closes on May 26, 1999). 3. Seasonal Rate Changes The Summer Period is effective May 1 to October 31 and the Winter Period is effective from November 1 to April 30. When the billing period is partly in the summer period and partly in the winter period, the billing will be computed by prorating the total kWh usage, kW demand, and the applicable rates thereto between the two seasonal periods, according to the ratio of the number of days in each seasonal period to the total number of days in the billing period. 4. Special Metering Equipment Service under this rate schedule requires the City's installation of automatic meter reading equipment to enable billing on a calendar month. The City of Palo Alto Utilities normally installs standard metering equipment to provide regular service. Service under this rate schedule requires additional equipment that is in addition to the standard metering and billing equipment. A customer may be required to provide dedicated telephone ser\rice to facilitate remote meter access. 5. Changing Rate Schedules Customers may request a rate schedule change at any time during the year but only once during a twelve-month period if the change is between the City of Palo Alto full-service rate schedules. The 12 month limitation does not apply if a customer elects a Direct Access rate schedule and is served by another Energy Service Provider. Qualified cust~mers may elect Direct Access at any time.

Maximum Demand Meter MEDIUM COMMERCIAL ELECTRIC SERVICE UTILITY RATE SCHEDULE E-17 (Continued) Whenever the monthly use of energy has exceeded 8,000 kilowatt-hours for three consecutive months, a maximum demand meter will be installed as promptly as is practicable and thereafter continued in service until the monthly use of energy has fallen below 6,000 kilowatt-hours for twelve consecutive months, whereupon, at the option of the City, it may be removed. The maximum demand in any month will be the maximum average power in kilowatts taken during any 15-minute interval in the month provided that in case the load is intermittent or subject to violent fluctuations, the City may use a 5-minute interval. A thermal-type demand meter which does not reset after a definite time interval may be used at the City's option. The billing demand to be used in computing charges under this schedule will be the actual maximum demand in kilowatts for the current month. An exception is that the billing demand for customers with Thermal Energy Storage (TES) will be based upon the actual maximum demand of such customers between the hours of noon and 6 pm on weekdays. 7. Primary Voltage Discount Where delivery is made at the same voltage as that of the line from which the service is supplied, a discount of2 1f2 percent for available line voltages above 2 kilovolts will be allowed provided the City is not required to supply service at a particular line voltage where it has, or will install, ample facilities for supplying at another voltage equally or better suited to the customer's electrical requirements. The City retains the right to change its line voltage at any time after providing reasonable advance notice to any customer receiving a discount hereunder and affected by such change. The customer then has the option to change his system so as to receive service at the new line voltage or to accept service (without voltage discount) through transformers to be supplied by the City subject to a maximum kVA size limitation. 8. Power Factor For new or existing customers whose demand is expected to exceed or has exceeded 300 kilowatts for three consecutive months, the City has the option to install V AR-hour or any other applicable metering to calculate power factor. The City may remove such metering from the service of a customer whose demand has been below 200 kilowatts for four consecutive months.
