(DNV-GEC) has been retained by STG Inc to complete modeling of a proposed wind-diesel power plant in the community of Unalakleet, Alaska. The community has received funding from the Alaska Energy Authority (AEA) to install a number of 100 kW wind turbines to supplement the existing diesel power system. STG has been hired as the construction contractor. STG, in coordination with the local utility, is considering the installation of up to six wind turbines, and AEA has requested the consideration of an optional battery bank as a replacement to one or two of the proposed units in a six-turbine system. The purpose of the modeling described in this report is to compare the estimated fuel savings and life cycle cost of the wind-diesel system options with and without battery storage. The methodology, assumptions, and results of the analysis are described below. DNV-GEC has previously completed a wind resource and energy assessment for the community of Unalakleet, which is documented in the Unalakleet Rural Power System Upgrade Project Conceptual Design Report (CDR) dated October 12, 2007. During the previous work DNV-GEC visited the proposed wind project site and considered it acceptable for wind energy development. The CDR is publicly available from the AEA. After completion of the CDR, STG contracted DNV-GEC to complete a revised energy assessment based on additional wind resource data that was collected and the potential installation of two 600 kW wind turbines. The methodology and results are documented in a report titled Preliminary Energy Assessment for Unalakleet Wind Energy Project dated October 6, 2008. Data from both reports are used in the current analysis when appropriate. Power System Description The power system in Unalakleet is owned and operated by the Unalakleet Village Electric Cooperative (UVEC). The sections below describe the major system components that are currently installed or under consideration. According to the CDR, the average electric load in Unalakleet is estimated to be 455 kW and the peak load is 831 kW. Diesel Generators The power plant is scheduled for upgrades with funding from the AEA Rural Power System Upgrade program. The planned diesel power plant will consist of four Caterpillar 3456 model diesel gensets rated at 475 kW each. The diesel generators can operate in parallel and the system voltage is 480 V. The generators can operate at a minimum load of 100 kW and a maximum sustained load of 425 kW. According to AEA, at least one diesel generator will remain on-line at all times in a wind-diesel hybrid system. Wind Turbines The wind power system currently under consideration will consist of either four or six 100 kW wind turbines manufactured by Northern Power Systems. The wind turbines will be installed in a single row on a hill located about 3 km north of the town of Unalakleet. The location of the DNV Global Energy Concepts Inc. 1 May 27, 2009 Power System Modeling, Unalakleet, Alaska CSRP0022-A proposed project site and the turbine layout are shown in Figure 1. Also shown is the location of the meteorological (met) tower where two years of wind resource data have been collected. Figure 1. Proposed Wind Project Site, Unalakleet Heat Recovery System A heat recovery system is in place to provide waste heat from the diesel generators to the school and other community buildings. An electric boiler will be installed to utilize excess electricity from the wind turbines. According to UVEC, the heat provided by the diesel generators and/or wind turbines will be charged to the customer at the current diesel fuel rates. According to AEA, the thermal load at the community buildings ranges from about 500 kW in the winter months to 50 kW in the summer months. In absence of heat recovery from the diesel generators, the thermal demand would result in approximately 85,000 gallons of heating fuel consumption per year. Battery Bank In a hybrid power system, the primary advantage of energy storage equipment is to allow a diesel generator to shut down when the wind turbines supply more power than is needed by the load. During short-term lulls in wind power generation, the energy storage device supplies any needed power. If the lulls are prolonged and the storage becomes discharged, a diesel generator is started and takes over supplying the load. For this type of system to operate with minimal power loss to the community, the energy storage system must be appropriately sized to cover the electric load DNV Global Energy Concepts Inc. 2 May 27, 2009 Power System Modeling, Unalakleet, Alaska CSRP0022-A long enough for a diesel generator to come online if the wind turbines were to fault and suddenly drop off-line. For the proposed hybrid power system in Unalakleet, since one diesel generator will be in operation at all times, the primary purpose of a battery storage system would be to prevent a second diesel generator from turning on. In sizing the battery bank, DNV-GEC considered the situation where the community demand is high (at 725 kW), the first diesel generator is operating at full capacity (475 kW), and the wind turbines are supplying the remainder of the community demand (250 kW). If the entire wind farm suddenly drops off-line, the battery bank would need to supply 250 kW for a period of time that would allow a second diesel generator to warm up and come online (about 10 minutes). Therefore, the battery bank would need to provide at least 40 kWh of usable capacity. Specification of the battery type and configuration is beyond the scope of this report; however, the ability of a battery bank to provide 250 kW of spinning reserve is included in modeling of the system control as described below. System Control It is DNV-GEC’s understanding that the proposed wind-diesel system will be operated as a “medium-penetration” system where at least one diesel generator will remain in operation at all times, regardless of the output of the wind turbines. Enough operating reserve will be in place, either in the form of online diesel generators or battery capacity, to serve the electric load in the event that 100% of the wind output drops to zero at any given time. For system options without battery storage, DNV-GEC used an operating reserve value equal to 10% of the electric demand plus 100% of the wind power output. In this situation, enough diesel generator capacity must be online at any given time to be able to cover a 100% drop in wind power output and a 10% increase in the electric load. For the system options where a battery bank is installed, the operating reserve that the diesel generators would need to provide is reduced in the model to 10% of the electric demand and 40% of the wind power output in a four-turbine system or 50% of the wind power output in a five-turbine system. The battery bank will provide the extra operating reserve. DNV Global Energy Concepts Inc. 3 May 27, 2009 Power System Modeling, Unalakleet, Alaska CSRP0022-A Modeling Assumptions DNV-GEC used the software program HOMER, developed by the National Renewable Energy Laboratory, to model the hybrid power options under consideration. The HOMER modeling software compares the hourly output of the wind turbines with the hourly electric load of the community and dispatches the appropriate diesel generator to make up any difference in power needs. The operating reserve, minimum loading of the diesel engines, and the diesel-fuel efficiency curves are also taken into consideration to calculate the fuel consumption of the system. Inputs into the model include the local wind resource, the wind turbine power curve, the community’s hourly electric load, diesel dispatch strategy, and diesel generator fuel curves. The HOMER model does not consider short-term power fluctuations caused by system dynamics or component transients. Table 1 and Table 2 summarize the technical and economic assumptions used in the analysis. Table 1.

Five possible system configurations were evaluated (diesel-only system, diesel system with four wind turbines, diesel system with four wind turbines and battery bank, diesel system with five wind turbines and battery bank, and diesel system with six wind turbines). The primary metrics for comparing the different power system options are the net present cost (NPC) and the total fuel savings in the community. The results are based on the modeling assumptions described above; any changes to the assumptions will have an impact on the results. Table 3.

System energy losses, which were estimated to be 21% in the Preliminary Energy Assessment for Unalakleet Wind Energy Project dated October 6, 2008, would reduce the estimated gross annual wind generated electricity and resulting diesel fuel savings. A sensitivity analysis was completed to evaluate the uncertainty in the installed cost of a battery storage system.

Sensitivity Analysis of NPC on Battery Bank Installed Cost Overall conclusions of the system modeling are summarized below. e The NPC of the hybrid power system options evaluated is approximately the same as the NPC of the diesel-only power system. The difference in NPC is up to 1.5%, which is within the margin of error of the modeling assumptions. The NPC of a four-turbine system with batteries versus a four-turbine system without batteries is essentially the same. The increased fuel savings that the batteries provide is offset by the lifecycle cost of the battery bank. The system with six wind turbines and no batteries results in the largest amount of overall fuel savings of the systems evaluated. Other potential benefits of reduced fuel consumption in the community (such as reduced risk of fuel spills, reduced exposure to fuel price volatility, reduced size and O&M cost of tank farm) are not included in the economic analysis. For all hybrid systems evaluated, the heating fuel consumption at the school and other community buildings increases compared to the diesel-only system with heat recovery. The reduced load on the diesels results in less heat available to community buildings. The system with six wind turbines comes close to making up for the reduced heat from the diesels by providing heat from excess electricity. System energy losses and fuel price escalation rates were not included in this analysis and are likely to have an impact on the actual economic performance of a wind-diesel system. The NPC of all the hybrid power systems evaluated are very close (within the margin of error of the modeling assumptions). The power system option that is ultimately selected for the community may depend more on non-economic factors, such as the level of community acceptance or desire for wind power, the comfort level and experience of the utility operators with the various system components, and the utility operator’s level of acceptable system complexity.

(“STG”) to perform preliminary design criteria and cost estimate to construct a power line for Unalakleet Valley Electric Cooperative (‘“UVEC”) from the new wind farm site to the current underground site at the airport. STG will be constructing a new 12.47 kV (energized at 4160 V) distribution line between the new UVEC wind farm and the current underground location at the Unalakleet Airport. The line will follow the land fill road from the wind farm site to the existing FAA line; this section of line is approximately 1.85 miles. The FAA line will then be replaced with new poles and conductor and continue to where the line currently goes underground at the Airport, this section of line is approximately 0.80 miles. A fiber optic cable will be attached to the power distribution line at the wind farm and continue from the Airport location to the diesel power plant. The purpose of this report is to outline the design criteria that were used to generate an estimated cost of construction of the distribution tie line. This includes loading criteria, strength factors, clearances, conductor and equipment for overhead construction. The design was based on governing codes. Since UVEC is currently owned and operated by Matanuska Electric Association (MEA) wherever possible, use of MEA standard materials and methods will be used. The recommended overhead construction utilized for the tie line is 12.47/7.2 kV — #2 ACSR conductor, energized at 4160/2400 V. A robust design is recommended in anticipation of the high winds on the unprotected coastal route near Unalakleet. 2 Line Configuration 2.1 General Routing The general routing of the line in Unalakleet will be as follows. The first segment will be along the wind turbines for a distance of approximately 1,800 feet. At each turbine it is proposed to have a pole with a three phase transformer bank to step-up the generation voltage of 480 V to the distribution voltage 4160 V. The next pole at each turbine will be a pole with a group operated air break switch. This will allow each turbine and transformer bank to be isolated from the system. After the wind farm site the pole line will follow the existing Land Fill road for approximately 1.85 miles. STG is currently in the process of obtaining easements/permits to have the line in the road right-of-way. The line will then tie into the existing FAA line. At this point the line will be upgraded back to the underground section at the airport. The line is currently a delta system, with a grounded wye to delta pad mounted transformer at the airport. It is proposed to relocate this transformer from the airport to where the tie line intersects the FAA line. The approximate length of the FAA line to be upgraded is 0.80 miles. Criectic Power Systems 1 Consulting Engineers CONCEPTUAL DESIGN REPORT UNALAKLEET WIND PROJECT TIE LINE Communications will be needed from the new wind farm to the existing diesel plant. B2 Networks will be designing the terminations, splicing, cabling, junctions, and vaults. EPS will design the line to carry the fiber optic cable. The routing of the fiber optic line will follow the power line from the wind farm to the underground site at the airport. From there it is proposed that the fiber optic cable utilize a spare conduit under the east-west runway and continue underground to the power plant. STG will be responsible to obtain a proper construction easements and permits from the appropriate parties for the line to be constructed. The proposed route is shown in the Appendix. The design criteria for overhead construction are discussed in Section 2.3. In general, the overhead line design criteria offered for this location meets National Electric Safety Code (NESC) Heavy loading district and Grade “B” construction criteria, with additional extreme wind and heavier ice conditions added. 2.2 Cost Estimates —- Assumptions and Discussion The total construction cost is estimated to be $1.4 to $1.6 million. A detailed breakdown for the estimate is included in the Appendix. Note that these costs are for construction only. No engineering, surveying, permitting, easements, and O&M costs are considered in this estimate. The communication cable utilized for the clearance and pole strength calculations was a 24 count figure-8 fiber optic cable. B2 Networks specified a Corning ALTOS Figure-8 cable. This particular cable has a built in %” EHS steel messenger. The installation and material cost of the cable was in the project construction cost estimates. However the cost of terminations, plant equipment, vaults, slack storage units, and other miscellaneous was not included. The specific material and labor that was included was cable (along pole line and underground to power plant), pole attachment hardware, guying, anchors, trench and conduit. For the overhead system, the poles that were chosen for consideration were based on strength and clearance. The typical poles are 45 foot class 2 poles for the land fill road section, and 40 foot class 2 poles to upgrade the FAA line. Since MEA currently owns and operates UVEC, MEA construction units were used for this estimate. With very limited geotechnical data a pole foundation with gravel back fill has been included. This type of backfill has been used on other projects in Western Alaska. It is assumed that local sources are available for this type of backfill. If future geotechnical studies are conducted and such studies indicate the need for a pile foundation, it will be added for the final design. Ruling spans were selected based on terrain,loadings, as well as proposed poles heights and conductors. Pole clearance and strength calculations can be found in the Appendix. Due to the line proximity to the Unalakleet Airport, it may be determined during the permitting process that pole sizes may need to be changed or the line may have to go underground. These changes may affect the construction cost of this project. Clearing was not included in this estimate. There may be incidental clearing needed along the route. @tctic Prve Sites "ne. 2 Consulting Engineers CONCEPTUAL DESIGN REPORT UNALAKLEET WIND PROJECT TIE LINE 2.3 Design Standards 2.3.1. Code Compliance All design criteria was developed using known environmental and climatic information for the project area, the C2- 2007 edition of the National Electrical Safety Code (NESC) and construction specifications outlined by the Rural Utilities Service (RUS) and Matanuska Electric Association (MEA). 2.3.2 Overhead 2.3.2.1 Clearances Clearances to ground and other installations will meet or exceed the requirements of the 2007 NESC. Typical NESC required clearances are as shown in the following table: Minimum Clearance Item Clearance Sag Criteria \7.2/12.5 kV (4160/2400 V) Vertical Clearances (NESC) 32°F, 1/2" Ice, No Wind, Final Sag OR Over Ground and Roads 18.5" 120°F, No Ice, No Wind, Final Sag* Over Communication Cables (carried on other 32°F, 1/2" Ice, No Wind, Final Sag OR supporting structures) _ 5.0' 120°F, No Ice, No Wind, Final Sag* Over Open Supply Conductors (carried on other 32°F, 1/2" Ice, No Wind, Final Sag OR structures, up to 22 kV to ground) 2.0' [120°F, No Ice, No Wind, Final Sag* Communications Vertical Clearances | (NESC) 32°F, 1/2" Ice, No Wind, Final Sag OR Over Ground and Roads 15.5’ 20°F, No Ice, No Wind, Final Sag* 7.2/12.5 kV (4160/2400 V) Horizontal Clearances (NESC) From Buildings (No Wind Displacement) 5.0’ \60°F, No Ice, No Wind, Final Sag From Buildings (With Wind Displacement) 45° ]6orF, No Ice, 6psf Wind, Final Sag * Whichever criteria produces the greatest sag The NESC requires that power and communications have a 40 inch separation when mounted on the same supporting structure. We will design for a minimum separation of 54 inches, this dimension could change during the design when sag and tension of the power conductor and communications cable is determined. 2.3.2.2 Conductor and Structure Loading All structure and conductor loading meet the requirements of Grade B construction as detailed in the NESC. None of the structures are technically required to comply with Rule 250C in the NESC for Extreme Wind. However, due to the 120 mph wind rating the NESC has given this region of Alaska, EPS believes it is prudent to require the Qc Prue Stes 3 Consulting Engineers CONCEPTUAL DESIGN REPORT UNALAKLEET WIND PROJECT TIE LINE facilities to meet this requirement despite none of them being over 60 feet above ground level. As a result, the following loading conditions were used: e Grade B Construction e NESC Heavy (0°F, 0.5” Ice, 4 psf wind) e xtreme Wind (20°F, 0” Ice, 36.9 psf wind) e Extreme Ice (0°F, 1.0” Ice, no wind) e Low Temperature (-40°F, no ice, no wind) For the purpose of this report all pole depths were set to be 10% of the entire pole length plus an additional 4 feet to enhance freeze-thaw cycle stability. 2.3.3 Additional Project Costs In addition to the construction cost of the line itself, other costs have been identified for this project. These costs have not been included in the attached construction cost estimate. A brief description of each follows. Bird Flappers, $7,800. On other projects in Western Alaska, US Fish and Wildlife (USFW) has asked for 3 bird flappers per span to be installed. USFW believes these bird flappers will reduce the amount of bird strikes on power lines. This report did not include any communications with USFW to see if bird flappers will be required. The permitting phase may dictate this.

If a partial taking of any part of the Leased Premises does not render Lessee’s continued occupancy and use of the Leased Premises unfeasible as determined above, then the rental shall be reduced in an amount commensurate with the degree to which the usefulness and business operations at the Leased Premises has been reduced as a result of such partial taking. 13.3.3 Allocation _of Compensation. Any Award for a partial taking or transfer shall be allocated in accordance with paragraph 13.2.2. 13.4 Voluntary Conveyance.

The Reclamation Plan shall be delivered to BSNC prior to the commencement of commercial sales from the Facilities. 12.4 Completion of Reclamation. UVEC's obligations under this Section 12 shall be satisfied at such time as all applicable government agencies have approved UVEC's reclamation of the Lands under the Reclamation Plan, and when such agencies have approved such additional reclamation as required by applicable law as a result of 14 changed circumstances not foreseen in such plan ("Additional Reclamation Obligations"), or have otherwise certified that UVEC has fulfilled all such obligations provided, however, that in the event there is no governmental agency with appropriate judicial or administrative authority to compel compliance with the Reclamation Plan and the Additional Reclamation Obligations, the Reclamation Plan (as supplemented by the Additional Reclamation Obligations) shall be converted into a reclamation contract between the parties and UVEC's obligations under this Section 12 shall then be fulfilled upon completion of the obligations under the reclamation contract. Nothing contained in this Section 12 shall relieve UVEC of its other obligations under this Agreement, including without limitation its indemnity obligations. 13.

Any fees for such an account shall be paid out of interest earned on the funds in the account. In the event of any such contest, BSNC shall cooperate fully with UVEC and shall execute any and all documents reasonably necessary to permit UVEC to pursue such contest. UVEC shall not permit or suffer the Lands, or any part thereof, to be conveyed, or BSNCs title thereto to be lost, as the result of nonpayment of any such tax or assessment for which UVEC is responsible and with respect to which UVEC has received notice. UVEC shall furnish to BSNC duplicate receipts for all such taxes and assessments when paid. 14. VOLUNTARY TERMINATION BY UVEC UVEC may terminate this Agreement at any time by delivering written notice to that effect to BSNC, which termination shall be effective on the 180th day after the effective date of receipt of such notice or on a later date specified in the notice. 15. TERMINATION FOR MATERIAL BREACH The failure of a party to keep or perform any material obligation on its part to be kept or performed according to the terms and provisions of this Agreement shall, at the election of any other party, constitute a material breach of this Agreement unless cured as hereinafter provided. In the event of any such material breach by a party, another party desiring to assert a claim of material breach shall first deliver to UVEC and all other parties to this agreement a written notice of its intention to declare a material breach of this Agreement which specifies the particular material breach or breaches. The defaulting party shall then have, (a) in the case of any failure to pay money, ten (10) days after delivery of such notice, or (b) in all other cases, thirty (30) days after delivery of such notice, in which to cure such specified material breach or breaches. Ifa specified material breach is not cured within said ten (10) days or thirty (30) days 16 (whichever is applicable), or if a specified material breach other than a failure to pay money is of such a nature that it cannot be cured within said thirty (30) days and the defaulting party fails to commence to cure such material breach within said thirty (30) days or fails thereafter to proceed to cure such material breach with reasonable diligence, the party claiming material breach may terminate this Agreement by delivering a written notice to that effect to the defaulting party. If the defaulting party disputes in good faith that a material breach exists, it shall deliver to the other parties a written notice to that effect and (a) the dispute shall be resolved in accordance with Section 22 of this Agreement and (b) the time to cure any such material breach shall be tolled (but not the defaulting party's obligation to make payments under Section 4 above) while the dispute is being resolved. Except as otherwise provided in Section 15 (‘Voluntary Termination by UVEC") above and Section 19 ("Condemnation") below, this Agreement may be terminated only on the basis of a material breach which is not cured. 16.

CONDEMNATION. In the event of the total taking of the Lands or a partial taking thereof which substantially interferes with the operations of UVEC under this Agreement, UVEC shall have the right to terminate this Agreement within thirty (30) days of said taking by delivering written notice to that effect to BSNC. If UVEC does not exercise said right to terminate this Agreement, the obligations and liabilities of UVEC to BSNC hereunder shall be equitably adjusted and the condemnation award shall be apportioned among the parties in accordance with their respective interests at the time of taking. The parties specifically reserve the right to take such action as they deem appropriate to assure such condemnation award is in accordance with their respective interests under this Agreement. 19.

At this time we have consultations ongoing for the following: Threatened and Endangered Species. Consultation is ongoing with the US Fish & Wildlife Service (USFWS), Fairbanks Field Office. Sarah Conn from that office is looking into any existing telemetry information regarding the flight patterns for the Spectacled eiders. Offshore from Unalakleet is the Eastern Norton Sound Critical Habitat Area. The eiders come in via the coast, molt offshore, then leave via the coast. Eiders typically fly 30-35 feet high according the USFWS. It is highly unlikely that the transmission line or towers will be in the flight path. Cultural and Historical Properties. Initial research into the Alaska Historical Resource Survey (AHRS) did not identify any known cultural or historical properties in the area of this project. Letters to the local and regional tribes have been sent out requesting any knowledge that they may have that is not recorded in the AHRS. Once any responses are received the letter to the State Historical Preservation Office can be submitted for their concurrence that “no historical properties will be affected”. This letter will need to come from the Alaska Energy Authority (AEA) as the state entity requesting the consultation. HDL will compile the information necessary and compose the letter that we will provide to AEA for this consultation. FAA Determination of No Hazard. The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) regulates the building of any structure within proximity to an airstrip. The project site is well within the 5 mile radius requiring a study be performed to determine that it is of no hazard to air traffic. HDL submitted the 7460-1's for all six towers using survey data provided by STG. This enabled the FAA to have confidence in the information gathered for this study and allowed for a timely evaluation. Every airport has an Airport Layout Plan (ALP) identifying the approach surface for each runway. Obstructions cannot penetrate this imaginary surface. This is known as a FAR Part 77. In Unalakleet on the east side of the airport the topography rises quickly. The land 3335 Arctic Boulevard Suite 100 . Anchorage Alaska 99503 . Phone: , Fax: 907.564.21 907.564.2120 22 202 W.

Due to this the air traffic pattern is to use the west side to land or take off. When doing the analysis for the tower locations the FAA found that the towers penetrate the FAR Part 77 because the land they are located on penetrates the airspace. HDL has been working with Earl Newalu in the Atlanta, Georgia office. He is the evaluator for this region. In discussing this project he explained that because the airspace is mandated to be available to the public and the project penetrates this airspace, the FAA is now required to circulate these 7460-1 requests to the public. The intent is to find out if a member of the public utilizes this airspace. He said in a phone conversation on June 2, 2009 that aircraft are not able to approach the airport from this area or take off in that direction since the ground penetrates the airspace. Any citizen who responds to this public circulation of the 7460-1's would have to prove to Mr. Newalu that they utilize this airspace despite the air traffic pattern and the ground elevation in the project area. It was his thought that it is a matter of procedure to put these out for public review and there would be no concerns brought forward from it. He did mention that he will request lighting for the towers on the end and the one in the middle.

Based on discussions with STG and BBFM, Inc., the project structural engineer, we understand six new Northwind 100 wind turbines will be installed in Unalakleet. Each tower will be approximately 120 feet tall with the following preliminary foundation design loads: Axial download: 44-kips Base shear: 28-kips Maximum moment: 2,471-kips-ft Torsional Moment: 23-kips-ft The wind turbine power generation units will be seated on steel monotube towers bolted to a reinforced concrete foundation. It is desired to use a gravity concrete foundation system without rock or soil anchors. Preliminary tower foundation dimensions are a nominal 21.5-ft by 21.5-ft by 3-ft thick primary subbase with an integral 8-ft diameter by 4-ft thick concrete tower pier. The concrete foundation base will be approximately 7 feet below grade and compact granular fill will be required above the primary concrete base to final grade. A field exploration program was developed to estimate the depth of soil overburden, weathered rock thickness, and the inferred depth to competent rock at the tower locations. A local air track drill rig was used to advance the test holes with geologic, thermal, and groundwater conditions inferred from the STG Unalakleet Wind Tower Project Duane Miller Associates LLC May 26, 2009 Page 2 drilling action and returned chip samples. Subsurface conditions would require verification by split barrel soil sampling or rock coring, but these exploration methods were not conducted under this scope of services. Geotechnical Exploration Duane Miller Associates (DMA) conducted a geotechnical exploration near the proposed new wind turbine locations. Joseph Marshall of DMA traveled to Unalakleet April 29 through May 1, 2009 to explore the subsurface conditions at the proposed tower sites. In the field DMA was assisted by Brennan Walsh of STG. The proposed tower site is on the east side of the Landfill Road near Borrow Pit 2. Prior to mobilization for the geotechnical exploration effort, two proposed turbine foundation orientations were developed for this area by STG. Paul Farmer, PLS of STG surveyed and marked the proposed tower lease lot, adjacent allotment parcel, and the proposed tower foundation centers for the original two alignments then left Unalakleet. After the surveyor left the area, a third tower alignment was provided to the field team. Project maps showing the proposed third tower alignment provided by STG were used for the geotechnical field exploration. The third tower foundation orientation and the test hole locations advanced for this exploration are summarized on the attached Site and Test Hole Location Plan, Plate 1. A total of 12 test borings were advanced in the project area. On April 29 two test holes were drilled along portions of the original tower alignments, DMA test holes Unk-01 and Unk-02. Upon receiving the revised tower alignment plan on April 30, the six revised tower locations were field located by the field team. Since the STG surveyor had departed Unalakleet, the revised tower foundations were located with a hand-held Garmin 60Csx GPS instrument based on the revised tower alignment latitude / longitude coordinates provided to the field team. The revised foundation coordinates were provided in text format with truncated latitude /longitude precision relative to the original tower location coordinates. Some field location error was incurred due to the truncated coordinates supplied for the revised tower locations. In addition, nominal 4 to 8 foot high alder brush and snow drifts near the proposed tower locations restricted drilling equipment access. STG Unalakleet Wind Tower Project Duane Miller Associates LLC May 26, 2009 Page 3 Six test holes were advanced near the revised tower foundations, labelled DMA test holes Unk-03 through Unk-08. Four additional test holes were advanced along portions of the original tower alignments, labelled DMA test holes Unk-09 through Unk-12. These additional test holes were advanced to define the general subsurface conditions along the ridge crest (Unk-09 and Unk-10). DMA test holes Unk-11 and Unk-12 were advanced along the Landfill Road right of way and the edge of the alder and snow drift area to compliment the revised tower alignment field data. The test holes were advanced with an air track drill rig was equipped with a 3-inch diameter bit. The drill is owned by Quality Asphalt and Paving, Inc. but was operated by James Saunders of STG. Subsurface conditions were inferred by drilling action, returned cuttings, and the field geologist’s interpretation of subsurface conditions. Highly disturbed soil and rock samples were field logged by our geologist during the exploration by collecting returned cuttings at the top of the test hole. The samples were visually field classified with portions of the recovered samples sealed in polyethylene bags. Temperature monitoring pipes, closed end, solid 1-inch PVC, were installed in test holes Unk-03 and Unk-05. Slotted 1-inch PVC for groundwater measurement was installed in Unk-08. All test borings were backfilled with cuttings prior to departing the site. GPS coordinates of the test boring locations were recorded with the hand-held instrument. Inferred Subsurface Conditions The inferred subsurface conditions encountered near the revised alignment consisted of a surficial brown sandy silt with four test holes encountering 1 to 2 feet of peat over the silt layer. The silt was underlain by a reddish-brown weathered limestone rock with silt interbeds. Beneath the silts and weathered limestone a hard gray siltstone was consistently encountered to the test hole termination depths. Test hole depths varied depending on the inferred hard siltstone bedrock contact depth with most holes advanced 13 to 16 feet below grade. Test holes were advanced a minimum 5 feet into hard rock. Test holes Unk-01, Unk-03 and Unk-12, encountered approximately 8 feet of unconsolidated sediment over 7 feet of weathered and fractured rock. In these three test holes changes in drilling action and cuttings indicated hard rock at STG Unalakleet Wind Tower Project Duane Miller Associates LLC May 26, 2009 Page 4 approximately 15 to 17 feet below existing grade. Test holes Unk-02, Unk-04, Unk-06, and Unk-07 encountered 2 to 3 feet of unconsolidated sediment overlying 3 to 4 feet of weathered and oxidized rock. With the exception of Unk-02 where hard bedrock was observed at 4 feet below grade, hard rock was generally encountered 5 to 7 feet below existing grade. Test holes Unk-05 and Unk-08 through Unk-11, inclusive, encountered 5 to 6 feet of unconsolidated sediment over 2 to 3 feet of weathered rock. A hard, gray rock was encountered below the weathered rock in each of these test holes. Frozen soils were observed in test holes Unk-03, Unk-05, and Unk-08 to less than 10 feet below grade. The frozen soil is inferred to be seasonal frost. The remaining holes did not exhibit frozen ground conditions. Groundwater of any significance was not encountered in any of the test holes advanced at this site. However, the field exploration program was conducted prior to spring thaw but seepage or groundwater may be present after thaw. Soil, rock, and frost conditions observed in the test holes advanced for this project are summarized below. Test Total Soil Weathered Rock Depth to Frozen .

Test hole elevations noted on the cross sections are inferred from the US Geological Survey topographic map based on a 50 foot contour interval and STG surveyed STG Unalakleet Wind Tower Project Duane Miller Associates LLC May 26, 2009 Page 5 elevations at select locations within the investigation area. The test hole elevations presented on Plate 2 and 3 should be considered approximate and not used for civil engineering design until verified with a site survey. As noted on the cross sections on Plate 2 and 3, the exploration area has considerable topographic relief, on the order of 15 to 25 feet with a swale noted along section A-A’. This swale may act as a drainage area and had frozen soil above rock. Discussion and Recommendations The inferred subsurface conditions along the revised tower alignment encountered hard rock at depths considered suitable for the proposed concrete gravity tower foundations. Varying thickness of unconsolidated soil and weathered rock are present over harder rock. The unconsolidated soil and weathered rock are not considered suitable as bearing material for the proposed tower foundations. Frost was encountered in several test holes at the time of our field work. The tower foundations must not bear on frozen soil or weathered rock to avoid thaw consolidation. Also, the topography at the proposed revised alignment indicates swales or drainage areas may be present along the alignment. The potential for shallow surface water seepage or groundwater to enter the tower foundation excavations exists in this area. Construction planning should include methods to control water seepage or groundwater that may enter the tower foundation excavations. We understand the proposed tower foundations will be constructed during the summer /early fall of 2009 and a winter construction program is not expected at this time. If a winter or freezing air temperature construction schedule is planned, we should be contacted to augment our recommendations for cold weather construction practices. Tower foundation footprints will be excavated with a track excavator with sufficient breakout capacity to remove frozen and unfrozen weathered and fractured rock. We understand a Cat 345 or equivalent track excavator is scheduled for tower foundation excavation work. Tower foundations must bear on hard, competent rock or compact fill as discussed below. All soil and weathered or fractured rock must be removed STG Unalakleet Wind Tower Project Duane Miller Associates LLC May 26, 2009 Page 6 under the tower foundations. The foundation bearing surface must also be free of discontinuities (joints, bedding planes, etc.) with orientations having soil infilling that could consolidate under the foundation loads. This is particularly important if frozen infilling is encountered. If hard, competent rock is not encountered at the tower foundation elevation, the tower foundation can bear on clean, well-graded fill placed and compacted from the hard, competent rock surface to the tower foundation elevation. For this project, fill material meeting Alaska Department of Transportation and Public Facilities (ADOT&PF) Subbase “A” is recommended. Subbase “A” has the following material material properties and gradation. ADOT&PF Subbase "A" % Passing by Sieve Subbase “A” must consist of hard, durable particles of fragments of stone or gravel. The particles must not break up when alternately frozen and thawed or wetted and dried. Muck, frozen material, roots, sod, or other deleterious matter is not permitted. Subbase “A” must have a maximum L.A. abrasion of 50 (test method AASHTO T-96) and a degradation of at least 40 (test method ATM 313). We have assumed Subbase “A” can be produced from Borrow Pit 2 near the site with some material processing. If fill is required under the tower foundations, it should be placed in a fully thawed state in nominal 12-inch lifts and compacted to 95%of maximum dry density as determined by test method ASTM D-1557. The tower foundation footprint excavation should extend at least three feet beyond the tower foundation perimeter and sufficiently wide to permit safe STG Unalakleet Wind Tower Project Duane Miller Associates LLC May 26, 2009 Page 7 access for equipment and labor. If fill is required under the tower foundation, the fill must extend at least three feet laterally in all directions from the tower foundation perimeter then slope at a 2H:1V (horizontal:vertical), or shallower, from the top of the fill section to competent, hard rock. A level rock surface is recommended under the tower foundation. However, some relief of the rock surface is permitted, but not to exceed 1 foot vertical in 10 feet horizontal under the tower foundation or fill section. Assuming a compact fill section is necessary under the tower foundation, an allowable bearing capacity of 4,000 pounds per square foot (psf) is recommended for sustained load states. An allowable bearing capacity of 5,500-psf is recommended for short term, transient load states. A significantly greater allowable bearing capacity can be developed for tower foundations cast directly on hard, competent rock. Estimated settlements for tower foundations bearing on compact fill are expected to be less than 1-inch total with less than 0.5-inch differential, provided fill sections less than 4 feet thick are needed. Thicker fill sections may experience greater total and differential settlements. The majority of the settlements are expected to occur concurrent with loading. Total and differential settlements for tower foundations cast directly on hard, competent rock will be negligible, provided discontinuity infilling that would consolidate is not present under the tower foundations. Lateral resistance can be developed by frictional resistance between the concrete tower foundation and the underlying bearing surface. If the tower foundations are cast directly on hard, competent rock, an allowable frictional resistance of 0.4 times the design dead weight is recommended. If the tower foundations are cast on compact fill, a allowable frictional resistance of 0.35 times the tower dead weight is recommended. Fill will be required above the primary (square) concrete tower foundation section to surrounding grade at each tower site. Fill placed above the primary foundation should be ADOT&PF Subbase “A”, compacted to 90% of maximum dry density as determined by ASTM D-1557. STG Unalakleet Wind Tower Project Duane Miller Associates LLC May 26, 2009 Page 8 The site is located in an area of moderate seismic activity and may be subject to strong ground motion. The spectral response acceleration for short period (S.) is 0.34g and 0.10g for a 1-second period (S;), both based on Site Class “B’. Assuming the tower foundations bear on compact granular fill over competent rock, the proposed site should be considered site Class “C”. Site coefficient factors F, and F, are 1.2 and 1.7, for Site Class “C” respectively. Based on these values, the design spectral response acceleration for the short and 1- second periods can be determined as follows: Sps=2/3F.S; and Spi=2/3F,Si Sps = 0.27g and Spi = 0.11g However, it is assumed wind load would control the foundation design load and the base shear and maximum moment summarized earlier are based on the design wind load conditions for the proposed tower. Fill placed under the tower foundations should be field tested to verify compaction. At least three field compaction tests per lift are recommended for fill placed and compacted under the tower foundations. For the fill placed above the primary tower foundation, either field compaction testing or a compaction performance requirement can be used. If field tested, one compaction test per lift is recommended. Alternatively, a performance requirement of three passes with a vibratory compactor that develops at least 5,000 pounds of impact energy is recommended for fill placed above the primary tower foundation section. If a performance specification is used, a maximum 8-inch lift thickness is recommended. The rock surface under the tower foundations should be observed by a trained, experienced engineer or geologist to verify the rock bearing surface is in accordance with our recommendations. We should also review the project plans and specifications as they are developed to conformance with the intent of our geotechnical recommendations. We have not reviewed local borrow sites for suitability as concrete aggregate. If local materials are being considered for concrete aggregate and historic concrete performance data are not available that would satisfy the structural engineers’ concrete design requirements, an experienced concrete STG Unalakleet Wind Tower Project Duane Miller Associates LLC May 26, 2009 Page 9 materials engineer or technician should be consulted to confirm the suitability of local material being considered for concrete aggregate.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The Unalakleet Valley Electric Cooperative (“UVEC”) was organized in 1961 and is responsible for operating and maintaining the cooperative’s power generation and distribution systems in Unalakleet, Alaska. In 1983, UVEC had a power plant upgrade and has been operating the same electrical generating system, without any major changes, since that time. In 2007, the Alaska Energy Authority installed a consolidated community-wide bulk fuel facility that is utilized by UVEC. And currently, the Alaska Energy Authority, Rural Energy Group, is preparing an upgrade for the UVEC powerhouse and diesel generation systems, which is 95% complete. Should funding become available, the AEA upgrades will be completed by 2010. This Business Operating Plan (the “Plan”) provides a guideline for the Unalakleet Valley Electric Cooperative’s maintenance, operation and sustainability of a Renewable Energy Fund Wind Project (the “Facility”) to be installed in Unalakleet, Alaska in 2009-2010. UVEC will be responsible to operate and sustain the newly installed Facility and associated electric power generation equipment. This Plan has been developed to assist UVEC with that effort and estimates the minimum resources required to sustain the Facility. For the new Facility, the Plan includes minimum estimates of operation and maintenance needs and costs, general and administrative costs, depreciation and/or renewal and replacement needs and costs, an average per kilowatt hour (kWh) charge, and total electrical costs. For the utility, Table A: 40 Year Estimated Utility Net Income and Cashflow includes projections of utility revenues and expenses with resulting annual net income and cashflow as well as the estimated average annual retail price per kilowatt hour. The Financial Tables are presented in this plan to illustrate the UVEC’s ability to generate a positive cashflow sufficient to support operations and maintenance and repair and renewal of the new Facility over 20 years. As a RCA-regulated utility, UVEC’s actual rates will be set following RCA procedures and policies. The Renewable Energy Fund Wind Project will include installation of six NorthWind 100 turbines to be connected to the existing distribution system. Fiber optic cables will be installed between the turbines and UVEC’s power house that will allow operators to both monitor and control the turbines from the Unalakleet powerhouse. The new wind generation facilities will be a key component of the UVEC; however, the utility also operates a variety of other equipment and systems. While this Plan provides financial tables that are intended to illustrate the UVEC’s ability, as a whole, to generate a positive net income sufficient to support operations and maintenance and repair and renewal of all equipment and systems over 20 years; the primary focus is to present the marginal expenses/savings related to the wind generation function. Additionally, this Plan does not include estimates for the costs that will be incurred, if any, as a result of the powerhouse and diesel generation upgrade that is being planned by AEA. In order to assess the potential impact of the new wind energy project on UVEC’s rates, an estimate has been made of the potential new wind related expenses as well as potential fuel savings and the subsequent net income. Additionally, very conservative estimates were used for kWh generation and line loss, existing operating and administrative/general expenses, fuel costs, etc in an effort to “test” the sensitivity on the UVEC average kWh rate. Based upon these and other assumptions, it appears that the UVEC will not be impacted negatively by the new wind project: Unalakleet Valley Electric Cooperative Wind Project Business Plan - June 1, 2009 Page 2 of 35 II. COMMUNITY OVERVIEW The City of Unalakleet is located on Norton Sound at the mouth of the Unalakleet River, 148 miles southeast of Nome and 395 miles northwest of Anchorage. The City was incorporated in 1974. Unalakleet has a state-owned 6,000’ long by 150’ wide gravel runway, which recently underwent major improvements; and a gravel strip that is 2,000’ long and 80’ wide. There are regular flights to Anchorage. Cargo is lightered from Nome where there is a dock. The Unalakleet Native Corporation has also leased a barge landing site for unloading heavy equipment and materials. There is a small road system of approximately 25 miles for trucks and automobiles. Local overland travel is mainly by ATVs, and in winter by snow machines and dogsleds. The local economy is the most active of any in the Norton Sound area - with both commercial fishing for salmon and herring and subsistence activities major components; fish, seal, caribou, moose and bear are utilized. Herring and salmon commercial fishing permits are held by 109 residents. Norton Sound Economic Development Corporation, through its subsidiary Norton Sound Seafood Products, operates a fish processing plant. Government and school positions are relatively numerous. The Bering Straits School District has its administrative offices in Unalakleet. The Bering Straits Native Corporation and the Unalakleet Native Corporation are the for profit corporations while the non-profit arm, Kawerak, Inc., is based in Nome. Tourism is becoming increasingly important; there is world-class silver salmon and grayling fishing in the area. All, but two, Unalakleet homes are connected to a piped water and sewer system and are plumbed. Water is derived from an infiltration gallery on Powers Creek, is treated and stored in a million- gallon steel tank. Residents haul refuse to the baler facility for transportation to the landfill. Refuse collection is available for commercial customers. Selected demographic and historical data for the community is provided below: Selected Statistics — Unalakleet Population (US Census) 2007 (State of Alaska, DCCED) 724 2000 747 1990 714 1980 625 1970 434 1960 574 1950 469 Housing (2000 US Census Data) Occupied Housing 224 Vacant Housing Due to Seasonal Use 6 Other Vacant Housing 12 Economic Data (2000 US Census Data) Unemployment Rate 14.6% Median Household Income $42,083 III. FACILITY UPGRADE Unalakleet Valley Electric Cooperative Wind Project Business Plan - June 1, 2009 Page 3 of 35 The UVEC is planning several upgrades to its electric generation and distribution infrastructure: 1. An upgrade of its powerplant, diesel power generation and distribution systems 2. Installation of new wind turbines to replace a portion of its diesel generated power A review of its existing facilities and proposed upgrades follows: Electric Cooperative Existing Facilities The UVEC power plant consists of two pre-engineered metal buildings, of differing ages, erected side-by-side with a common wall. Both structures sit on concrete slab-on-grade foundations. Primary power is provided by two 620 Kilowatt (kW) CAT model 3512 generator sets; both engines have approximately 120,000 total hours and have been rebuilt approximately 10 times. A 500 kW CAT model D398 generator set provides backup power. The existing engines and generators have exceeded their intended service life (typically about 100,000 hours) and should be replaced. Many of the supporting mechanical systems, such as ventilation, fuel handling and cooling, are also due for replacement. Currently, the UVEC electrical power generation system consists of diesel powered generators, as outlined below: Brand/Model Size (kW) Age Avg Efficiency Caterpillar #3512 620 kW 25 13.35 Caterpillar #3512 620 kW 25 14.23 Caterpillar #398 500 kW 24 11.83 Chicago Pneumatic 300 kW 40 Emergency only The UVEC utilizes a heat recovery system to provide heat to a variety of community buildings. And, while the system is relatively old it continues to function relatively well. The jacket water from the existing CAT 3512 generator set is connected through common piping to the upflow radiators. Primary heat recovery from the coolant is through a large plate and frame heat exchanger. Recovered heat from this heat exchanger is distributed to multiple facilities via buried, insulated, arctic piping loops. A 6-inch diameter loop serves the elementary and high schools, the BSSD administration building and the teacher housing 6-plex. A 2-inch diameter loop serves the city- owned Bailer Building. A second, smaller shell and tube heat exchanger is also connected to the coolant piping. Recovered heat from this heat exchanger is distributed through a 2-inch diameter piping loop to the water treatment plant, the courthouse and the bulk fuel storage tank. The entire community is served via a 4160Y2400-volt (V) overhead distribution system that is operated and maintained by the UVEC with assistance from the Matanuska Electric Association (MEA). The distribution system consists of a main feeder serving three separate circuits: north, south and west. The distribution system consists of #4 Aluminum Coated Steel Reinforced (ACSR) conductors for the feeders and utilizes 15 Kilovolt (kV) class components. Each of the three Unalakleet Valley Electric Cooperative Wind Project Business Plan - June 1, 2009 Page 4 of 35 circuits includes remotely operated, oil-filled contactors located on poles near the power plant. ‘The remote contactors on each circuit are independent from each other, but are connected so that a contactor in each phase operates simultaneously upon receipt of a signal from the switchgear. Currently, the Alaska Energy Authority is working with CRW Engineering Group LLC and the UVEC to develop an upgrade to the UVEC powerhouse and diesel generation system. A Conceptual Design (65%) was completed in October 2007 and, as of May 2009, was in final design phase. The proposed upgrades include four Caterpillar 3456 model diesel gensets rated at 455 kW each. The diesel generators can operate in parallel and the system voltage is 480 V. The generators can operate at a minimum load of 100 kW and a maximum sustained load of 425 kW. According to AEA, at least one diesel generator will remain on-line at all times. AEA anticipates receipt of funding for the project in 2009, with project completion in 2010. All of the improvements proposed by AEA are compatible with the new wind generation system and have been designed with compatibility in mind: Proposed power plant Upgrades include: e Remove the existing power plant exterior metal skin and install new, insulated siding and roof panels on the existing building frame. e Upgrade the power plant interior with new partition walls, doors and windows as shown. e Replace the existing power generation equipment with equipment indicated on the plans; including all required mounting hardware, fuel supply, exhaust and cooling systems, etc. Install new heat recovery equipment. Upgrade the building ventilation and combustion air-intake systems. Install new 480Y277V automatic switchgear and station service. Install new plant interior and exterior lighting. Complete miscellaneous control and wiring upgrades to meet National Electric Code (NEC) and National Electric Safety Code (NESC) requirements. e Electrical distribution system. Proposed distribution system upgrades include: e Install a new 1.5 Megavolt-Ampere pad-mounted step-up transformer to convert 480V generator output to 4160Y/2400V line voltage. e Install a new pad-mounted, remotely operated fused switch cabinet to allow automatic, simultaneous disconnection of all three phases should any one fuse in a specific circuit trip. e Modify existing pole cross arm componentry and configurations on three existing poles and install two new utility poles in the vicinity of the power plant. The remainder of the overhead distribution system will remain unchanged. Following are diagrams of the proposed new powerhouse site plan and layout: Unalakleet Valley Electric Cooperative Wind Project Business Plan - June 1, 2009 Page 5 of 35 Proposed Powerhouse Site Plan aR haa a fete He eed it te ay rua gs 24a ee ju! a bay 4 tia tad 3 a = ae] aoe == (Sy) ou. eee] ee [ee Epes a Serra gg manana] g Unalakleet Valley Electric Cooperative Wind Project Business Plan - June 1, 2009 Page 6 of 35 Proposed Powerhouse Layout i =x fe = ey, waar | “ae” [eage® « [bone | ones oven ||, “SSS 3 3 . roe cory sa-om |" "+ ag pmaasnalls @F a Unalakleet Valley Electric Cooperative Wind Project Business Plan - June 1, 2009 Page 7 of 35 Electric Cooperative Renewable Energy Upgrade The UVEC has received funding from the State of Alaska, the Norton Sound Economic Development Corporation and the Unalakleet Native Corporation to undertake the installation of wind generation facilities in Unalakleet, Alaska that will replace the need for approximately twenty- five percent of the community’s diesel generated electricity. The new wind project will include installation of wind turbines, heat recovery equipment, and system controls. Wind Turbines - The wind power system currently under consideration will consist of six 100 kW wind turbines manufactured by Northern Power Systems NW100-B, which have a design life of twenty years. It is anticipated that the State of Alaska grant will fund four of the new wind turbines; while contributed funds from the Unalakleet Native Corporation and the Norton Sound Economic Development Corporation will fund two of the new wind turbines. Heat Recovery System - An electric boiler will be installed to utilize excess electricity from the wind turbines. According to the UVEC, the heat provided by the diesel generators and/or wind turbines will be charged to the customer at the current diesel fuel rates. According to AEA, the thermal load at the community buildings ranges from about 500 kW in the winter months to 50 kW in the summer months. In absence of heat recovery from the diesel generators, the thermal demand would result in approximately 85,000 gallons of heating fuel consumption per year. It is anticipated that the State of Alaska grant will fund upgrades to the heat recovery system. System Controls — The current system design envisions that the new wind-diesel system will be operated as a “medium penetration” system where at least one diesel generator will remain in operation at all times, regardless of the output of the wind turbines. Enough operating reserve will be in place, in the form of online diesel generators, to serve the electric load in the event that 100% of the wind output drops to zero at any given time. It is anticipated that the State of Alaska grant will fund new system controls. Site Plan and Transmission Line Route The wind turbines will be installed in a single row on a hill located about 3 km north of the town of Unalakleet. The location of the proposed project site and the turbine layout are shown in the first diagram; while the route for the new transmission line from the wind turbines to the existing distribution system is shown in the second diagram: Unalakleet Valley Electric Cooperative Wind Project Business Plan - June 1, 2009 Page 8 of 35 CE Jo 6 a8eq 6002 ‘1 aunf - urfg ssaursng 19al0Ig Pury aanvsadoo, sisary AoA 129—yeRUQ, LANDFILL ROAD SCALE: PEAK 450 WIND FARM PRELIMINARY DESIGN STG, INC. 1"=500' DATE: 5/1/2009 ued US 7 er \ pe BG) eld ts isd eres ied gs He 3 OS Ie ANN AaMod Mav 3H yj a 2 ANVId aod / yf" / ‘SS. nolv2071 aNnowoUaONN aim 7 G// ne 7 & W1ev2 Ouco was ~ -_— -- ————"——“~ - 7 II 3 vod 3Lnod dasodoud fe eee ef g & / q g 7 nD 4 E \ ¢ \ Ggoveedn 36 OL 3NN ¥¥4 ONUSDG - B Fe a Zz \ A San ; > J —>=:,” SDH 4 oS J SS / / ~ 4 vox TY ONY] HL ONOTY aN / Z Ss Ta SUL NOUNGIISIO Ov3HIRA0 J & BIT NY MN 40 ALNOY CBSOdbue Z - : Unalakleet Valley Electric Cooperative Wind Project Business Plan - June 1, 2009 Page 10 of 35 IV. UVEC MANAGEMENT Description of Fiscal Controls and Accounting Procedures UVEC operates under the calendar fiscal year of January —- December. The Board of Directors requires that each accounts payable or payroll check be signed by the general manager or the office manager in addition to a member of the Board of Directors. This check-signing process ensures strong oversight of all general manager-approved expenditures. The Matanuska Electric Association (MEA) provides contract services for the annual fuel surcharge rate changes filing with the Regulatory Commission of Alaska (RCA). Any tariff changes are handled by MEA, as they hold the operating certificate for the UVEC. Power Cost Equalization is paid by the State of Alaska to the UVEC for non delinquent residential customers and community facilities owned by the City of Unalakleet - at a rate approved by the RCA. The UVEC utilizes the services of an independent auditor, hired by the MEA, and in turn submits monthly financial statements to UVEC’s Board of Directors and to the MEA. Over the past ten years, the UVEC audits have resulted in “unqualified” opinions and the UVEC has no outstanding audit issues. Over the past number of years, the UVEC has been investing funds, with the National Rural Utility Cooperative Financing Corporation’s commercial paper investments, to pay for its annual supply of diesel fuel. However, the 2008 per gallon fuel price increased $1.5631 (or 55 %) over 2007, so that the UVEC had to use the MEA’s line of credit to pay for $193,357 of fuel. The UVEC purchases fuel with the Western Alaska Fuel Group and utilizes its legal counsel for negotiations. The cost of diesel fuel made up sixty five percent (65%) of its operational costs in 2008; while payroll made up twelve percent (12%). The UVEC has property and liability insurance coverage through the ARECA Insurance Exchange. This Exchange consists of utilities throughout the State of Alaska and is a non-profit organization, which provides dividends from its investments and capital credits from its net income. Board of Directors The UVEC is a member cooperative managed by a seven-member Board of Directors and its general manager. Following is a list of the UVEC’s 2009 Board of Directors: UNALAKLEET VALLEY ELECTRIC CO-OP BOARD OF DIRECTORS Dave Cunningham, President Jeffrey Ericson, Vice President Judy Kotongan, Sec. - Treasurer Douglas Katchatag, Member Vacant, Member Mary Brown, Member Harris Ivanoff, Sr. Member Unalakleet Valley Electric Cooperative Wind Project Business Plan - June 1, 2009 Page 11 of 35 Organization of Electric Cooperative Management and Operations UVEC has four full time employees.

Additionally, he has worked as a constructor of remote weather observation systems, mechanic for the Bureau of Indian Affairs road constructors and has been a self-employed fisherman. He received welder training through the Kenai Community College. Staff Training The State of Alaska, Division of Labor and Workforce Development has expressed interest in working with the UVEC on the UVEC Renewable Energy Fund Wind Project, to fund OJT-type training for the UVEC operators on the wind turbines, system controls and other project components. Currently, the plan is to send two persons from Unalakleet (one a UVEC employee) to Northern Power System’s Vermont manufacturing plant, in June 2009, to provide initial maintenance and operating training for the UVEC operators. (See attached agenda) Training will need to be provided on troubleshooting control or SCADA systems necessary for the wind project. Additionally, OJT training will take place during the annual on-site inspections by Northern Power System. Additional training will be finalized and delivered closer to the startup of the project. Unalakleet Valley Electric Cooperative Wind Project Business Plan - June 1, 2009 Page 13 of 35 V. REGULATORY REQUIREMENTS AND PERMITTING ——————————————————————— Regulatory Requirements The two primary regulatory requirements applicable to the UVEC are related to spill response compliance and operating certification by the Regulatory Commission of Alaska. The UVEC is responsible for ensuring adherence to all applicable state and federal regulations. The Facility will have on-site an Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Spill Prevention Control and Countermeasures (SPCC) Plan (40 CFR Part 112), which confirms compliance of the Facility with the spill prevention and operating requirements of 40 CFR Part 112. Currently, the Matanuska Electric Association holds a valid “Certificate of Public Convenience and Necessity” for the UVEC. Permitting All project permitting is being prepared by Hattenburg, Dilley & Linnell (HDL) and it is anticipated that all required permitting will be completed by June 30, 2009. Of particular importance is the tower permit required by the Federal Aviation Administration, which is anticipated to be issued in early June 2009. Based upon the “Nome Region Energy Assessment, DOE/ NETL 2007/1284”, and work by HDL the following chart indicates the applicable Federal and State permitting activities and their applicability to project components: Permit/ Activity Applicability EPA National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System Applicable (if stormwater from construction disturbance) National Marine Fisheries Service Endangered Species Act Consultation Applicable F&W Coordination Act Consultation, Marine Mammal Act Applicable US.

FINANCIAL PLAN The following financial estimates are preliminary in nature and are in year 2009 dollars; however, the assumption is that there are fully functioning systems in place. All estimates and assumptions contained in this plan are preliminary and are anticipated to change as the project progresses. Actual revenues and expenses will vary throughout the life of the facility and these estimates should not be considered final. The UVEC is an electric cooperative that is financially regulated by the Regulatory Commission of Alaska (RCA), which means that the RCA has regulatory oversight of the UVEC rates. Currently, the certificate holder, MEA, provides contract services for the annual fuel surcharge rate changes and tariff changes filings with RCA. The new wind generation facilities will be a key component of the UVEC; however, the utility also operates a variety of other equipment and systems. While this Plan provides financial tables that are intended to illustrate the UVEC’s ability, as a whole, to generate a positive net income sufficient to support the operations and maintenance and the repair and renewal of all equipment and systems over 20 years; the primary focus is to present the marginal expenses/savings related to the wind generation function. Additionally, this Plan does not include estimates for the costs that will be incurred, if any, as a result of the powerhouse and diesel generation upgrade that is being planned by AEA. As a RCA-regulated utility, the UVEC’s actual rates will be set following RCA procedures and policies, which do not allow UVEC to include an R&R sinking fund into its rate structure. RCA accounting and rate-setting policies require UVEC to only include in its rate structure items that are expended “today for today’s” customers. Also, precluded from inclusion in the rate structure is depreciation on grant-funded items. Therefore, this Plan is intended to identify the potential impact of the wind enefgy project on the UVEC’s rate and net income. The “Average Estimated Retail Price” calculated in Table A, again, is illustrative; it is not intended that the UVEC will change its rates annually; but, instead will apply for tariff changes with the RCA as conditions within the UVEC dictate. Revenues In October, 2009 the UVEC received a rate adjustment from the RCA and the following rates are in effect for residential and commercial customers, before Power Cost Equalization (PCE) adjustment: Potential kWh Sold Rates Revenue Residential 1,481,397 0.2548 Base rate 0.2374 Fuel Surcharge 0.000362 RCC 0.4926 729,680 Commercial 2,530,673 0.2260 Base rate 0.2374 Fuel Surcharge 0.000362 RCC An AlaAlalnaw $ 0.4638 Total Potential Revenue (before City sales taxes) $ $ 1,173,630 1,903,310 Unalakleet Valley Electric Cooperative Wind Project Business Plan - June 1, 2009 Page 15 of 35 The UVEC collection rates are 95 percent or higher — which have been consistent over the past several years. Therefore, based upon a 95 percent collection rate and the revenue assumptions above, the total projected annual collectable revenue is - $1,808,144. The addition of wind generated power is not anticipated to effect rates in the near term. Expenses As outlined earlier, this Plan addresses the impact of the new wind generation component on the UVEC operations and financial situation. Currently, the UVEC tracks and presents its financial information based upon the National Rural Utilities, Cooperative Finance Cooperation standards utilizing its Financial and Statistical Report, which itself is based upon standard utility accounting principles. The accounting framework for a regulated electric utility differs from that of an ordinary business. This is very apparent in the way that expenses are aggregated — by operational grouping rather than functional area. For example, production transmission, distribution, customer accounts are common expense categories on an electric utility’s income statement; rather than travel, expenses, supplies, etc. For the purpose of planning for the effect of the new wind generation component on the UVEC’s expenses, it makes some sense to think about expenses in the following categories: 1. Marginal Operating and Maintenance Wind Expenses — These are the expenses that will be incurred specifically in support of the operation and maintenance of wind facilities that will be installed by the UVEC, such as the O&M costs of the turbines and distribution hook-up to the existing system 2. Fuel Costs — This is the cost for diesel fuel to operate the diesel generators. It is anticipated that the new wind generation facilities will provide approximately twenty-five percent of the UVEC’s power needs, which, in turn, should reduce the amount of diesel required by the UVEC. » Non-Wind Expenses — These are the expenses that are currently incurred by the UVEC to operator the powerhouse, generate diesel power, distribute power, track kWh usage and bill customers, etc. It is anticipated that the new wind generation facilities will not impact significantly these costs. It is possible that future O&M on the diesel generators will be lower by reduced use of the generators, but, in the interest of being conservative, these expenses have not been lowered. 4. Wind R&R Loan Interest Payments — This cost is the cost of interest payments that would be incurred if the UVEC needed to borrow funds in Year 10 of the project in order to undertake some replacement or renewal of the wind generation facilities. 5. Wind R&R Depreciation — This cost is the depreciation expense that would be the result of significant replacements and renewals, if completed, in Year 10. A more detailed explanation and review of these cost categories is presented below: Unalakleet Valley Electric Cooperative Wind Project Business Plan - June 1, 2009 Page 16 of 35 Marginal Operating and Maintenance Wind Expenses - These are the expenses that will be incurred specifically in support of the operation and maintenance of wind facilities that will be installed by the UVEC, such as the O&M costs of the turbine and distribution hook-up to the existing system. According to the Northern Power Systems representatives, an annual inspection of the turbines, and related systems, must be undertaken by company inspectors. The following expenses assume one trip annually for two inspectors fora ten day trip. It is assumed that each turbine will require one day of the inspectors’ time. According to the Northern Power Systems representative the cost estimate for these expenses is $3,000 per year per turbine. Additional, O&M expenses have been included for replacement of small parts annually - $1,000 per turbine — and for training of the UVEC operators. Marginal Wind Generation Annual O&M Costs: Materials: _Annual Inspections $ 18,000 Supplies $ 6,000 OtherCosts; = oo Training $ 5,000 Total Annual O&M Costs Fuel Costs — This is the cost for diesel fuel to operate the diesel generators. It is anticipated that the new wind generation facilities will provide approximately twenty-five percent of the UVEC’s power needs, which, in turn, should reduce the amount of diesel required by the UVEC. Below is a twenty-year summary of fuel reduction and cost savings, based upon the following assumptions: ¢ Diesel generators will produce a minimum of 14 kWh/gallon, which is slightly more conservative than estimates provided by AEA. e The historical forty year inflation rate of 1.5% per year will continue and fuel will increase at the same rate. If future fuel prices outstrip inflation rates, as they have in recent years, the impact will increase cost savings. e Use of the wind generators in Year One will result in a twenty-five percent reduction in diesel generated kWh. ¢ Initial diesel costs will be $4.75 per gallon. e Year one total kWh needs will be 4,000,000 — to be generated 25% by the wind turbines and 75% by the diesel generators. As the following table shows, fuel savings can be significant. In Year One, based upon a reduction in fuel use of 71,400 gallons, at a cost off $4.75/gallon, cost saving amount to approximately $340,000. And, if fuel prices continue to rise, even greater savings could be realized. Unalakleet Valley Electric Cooperative Wind Project Business Plan - June 1, 2009 Page 17 of 35 : .

It is possible that future O&M on the diesel generators will be lower by reduced use of the generators, but, in the interest of being conservative, these expenses have not been lowered. Currently, the UVEC is incurring just over $500,000 annually in non-fuel expenses, including generation expenses, maintenance of structures, maintenance of generation plant, distribution expenses, customer account expense, administrative and general expenses, depreciation, taxes and interest. In order to be conservative, the following expenses were increased slightly: Annual Non-Wind Expenses: Generation Expense Misc Generation Expenses _Maintenance of Structures Maintenance Generating Plant Distribution Expense - Operation Distribution Expense - Maintenance __ 11,000 86,000 210,000 58,000 Consumer Accounts Expense Administrative & General Expense _ Depreciation & Amortization _ ‘Tax Expense Interest Total Unalakleet Valley Electric Cooperative Wind Project Business Plan - June 1, 2009 Page 18 of 35 Wind R&R Loan Interest Payments — This cost is the cost of interest payments that would be incurred if the UVEC needed to borrow funds, in Year 10 of the project, in order to undertake some replacement or renewal of the wind generation facilities. Northern Power Systems estimates the useful life of the wind turbines to be in excess of twenty years. However, in order to reflect a more conservative approach, it is assumed that some renewal/replacement will need to be performed on all components of the wind generation system. Following are the system replacement assumptions: Depreciation R&R Activities: Years 15 10_ 10 $ — 150,000 $125,000 $ 125,000 Blade Replacement Replace/Repair Switchgear/Controls Replace Conductors/Transformers/ Controls The primary purpose of this Plan is to identify the potential impacts of the new wind generation components on the UVEC’s operations and financial situation. Therefore, it is assumed that renewals/replacements will need to occur in about the tenth year of the project and that loan financing will utilized. Loan assumptions include: e 10 year loan period e 5.5% interest rate, based on AEA’s energy loan program rate Based upon these assumptions, the loan amortization would be: Beginning Principal Ending Year Balance Interest Payment Payment Balance 1 | $ 457,355.99 2 |S 421,834.17, 3 $35,521.82] $ 421,834.17 |S (60,676.40)| $ 37,475.52 | $ 384,358.65 S$ (60,676.40)| $__ 39,536.67 48 3 0.79 | $ su )| S. | $_ 259,105. 6 | $ 259,105.48 | $ |S (60,676.40)| $ 46,425.60 | $ 212,679.89 _7__|s 9|$ Ss IS 01S | 8 8 | $ 163,700.88 | $ 9,003.55 | $ (60,676.40)| $ 51,672.85 | $ 112,028.03 9 | $ 112,028.03 | $ 6,161.54 | $ (60,676.40) $ 54,514.86] $ 57,513.17 10 [$57,513.17 | $ 3,163.22 | $ _ (60,676.40)| $__57,513.17 | $ (0.00 $ 149,408.00 _$ (606,763.99) _$ 457,355.99 Wind R&R Depreciation — This cost is the depreciation expense that would be the result of significant replacements and renewals, if completed, in Year 10.

Additionally, very conservative estimates were used for kWh generation and line loss, existing operating and administrative/general expenses and fuel costs, etc in an effort to “test” the sensitivity on the UVEC average kWh rate. To summarize, the key assumptions were: e All collections were estimated at 95%, even though the majority of kWh are sold to commercial customers with a 100% rate e Annual line loss was computed at 10%, which is slightly higher than actual rates e Training and supplies costs for the wind related O&M were estimated to be twice as high as provided quotes e Existing non-wind expenses were increased $50,000 e Assumed displaced fuel starts at $4.75 per gallon for 1,000,000 kWh, which remained constant e Assumed significantly higher renewal/replacement in Year Ten than estimated by equipment vendors e Assumed 100% loan financing for Year Ten renewal and replacement e Assumed no increase in waste heat revenue Based upon these and other assumptions, it appears that the UVEC will not be impacted negatively by the new wind project: Year Annual Revenue Annual Expenses Average Estimated Estimated Retail Price $/kWh Wind O&M Expenses (Tables C&D) Non-Wind Expenses (Table F) Estimated Annual Fuel Costs ‘Total Green Tag Annual (Table F) Expenses Revenue Sales Nia 30,000 31,500 33,075, 1,640,820 1,691,007 1,742,741 1,796,069 1,851,042 $1,017,857 $_ 1,053,788 $_1,090,881 $1,129,175 $_ 1,168,706 594,200 603,113 612,160 621,342 $1,641,057. $1,686,336 $1,732,918 10 00 JO en | le 3 $1,907,711 66,129 2,026,350 2,088,431. 2,152,430 DA ADMD 1H 1H |W IH $1,209,513 $1,339,992. $1,386,312 Unalakleet Valley Electric Cooperative Wind Project Business Plan - June 1, 2009 Page 20 of 35 659,470 669,362 679,402 $ 1,986,769 $2,042,022 | $2,098,873 APPENDICES Unalakleet Valley Electric Cooperative Wind Project Business Plan - June 1, 2009 Page 21 of 35 Appendix A: Detailed Financial Tables Unalakleet Valley Electric Cooperative Wind Project Business Plan - June 1, 2009 Page 22 of 35 TABLE A FINANCIAL OVERVIEW YEARS 1 THROUGH 5 - ESTIMATED kWh INFORMATION Estimated kWh Information kWh Produced 4,000,000 4,060,000 4,120,900 4,182,714 4,245,454 Line Loss 400,000 __ 406,000 412,090 418,271 424,545 Billable kWh 3,600,000 i 3,654,000 3,708,810 3,764,442 3,820,909 95% Collectable 3,420,000 3,471,300 3,523,370 3,576,220 3,629,863 YEARS 1 THROUGH 5 - ESTIMATED ANNUAL EXPENSES SUMMARY Wind O&M $29,435 ; 30,325 | [$s 30,780 $_ 1,017,857 ] | $ 1,053,788 } | $ 1,090,881 |] $ 1,129,175 || $_ 1,168,706 Non Wind Expenses $594,200} 1 $ 603,113 |] $ 612,160 J] $ 621,342 |] $ 630,662 Wind Loan Interest Wind R&R Depreciation TOTAL $ 1,641,057 | | $ 1,686,336 || $ 1,732,918 | | $ 1,780,842 |] $ 1,830,148 YEARS 1 THROUGH 5 - ESTIMATED AVERAGE RATE SUMMARY Average Rate Estimated Net Income Net Income Unalakleet Valley Electric Cooperative Wind Energy Project Business Plan - June 1, 2009 Page 23 of 35 TABLE B ESTIMATED NET INCOME Table A is a summary of the following revenue and expenses tables, all of which are presented to illustrate the Cooperative's ability to generate a positive cashflow sufficient to support operations and maintenance and repair and renewal over 40 years.

In addition, this three-day course will highlight key aspects of the turbine’s operation, remote monitoring and maintenance. Highlights The course will enable participants to perform the steps and processes executed during the period of time “from shovel in the ground, to ready for commissioning.” Participants will learn to evaluate different foundation designs for their impact on project planning, un-nest and erect the tower, assemble the rotor and pitch the blades, lift and attach the nacelle, and complete internal wiring. Turbine operation, annual preventative maintenance, and remote monitoring will also be covered. Approach The training features: presentations, classroom discussions of best practices, demonstrations of installation processes by Northern Power Subject Matter Experts (SMEs), hands-on practice and coaching by SMEs on the shop floor, case studies and activities based on the Installation and Operation and Maintenance manuals, which are the project manager’s resource in the field. Collectively this approach gives participants a thorough overview and in-depth understanding of the time and resources necessary to perform the job correctly and safely. Benefits Installation projects of this size and scope require a team of people with a range of skills and expertise. Completing an installation successfully relies on everyone’s preparedness and ability to execute their role on the job site. The training affords an opportunity for participants to interact with other project leaders who have similar experiences managing complex construction projects and shared goals, to leverage their skills to capitalize on the emerging wind market opportunity. Participants will develop relationships with Northern Power’s experts who have completed Northwind 100 turbine installations from Alaska to Massachusetts, and who will share best practices for coordinating project teams to achieve outstanding results on the job. An overview of the agenda is on the following page. To ensure the greatest amount of participation and hands-on value, class size has been limited to 12 to 14 participants.

Box 186 Unalakleet, Alaska 99684 Dear Ike: Matanuska Electric Association (MEA) is aware that Unalakleet Valley Electric Cooperative (UVEC) has been offered a $4-million grant through the State of Alaska’s Renewable Energy Grant Recommendation Program. Your grant application sought funds for the installation of approximately 1.2 MW of wind generation capacity, to be interconnected with the electric distribution system in Unalakleet. As the public utility certificated to provide electric service in Unalakleet, MEA’s main concern is that the wind turbines will not harm the integrity of the existing distribution and generation system, or the quality of service provided. The terms and conditions under which the output of the wind project will be integrated into MEA’s Unalakleet electric system have not yet been negotiated. However UVEC has assured MEA that your contractors have installed and integrated similar wind generation systems into the electric grids of other isolated Western Alaska villages in a manner consistent with all applicable safety codes, and that those wind systems are being successfully operated. UVEC has requested a letter of non-objection from MEA for this project. Based solely upon the representations of UVEC, MEA understands that UVEC will carry sufficient general liability insurance on this wind generation project to ensure timely funding for the repair of any damages that might be caused by wind generator malfunction, including damages related to power outages, without any financial contribution or investment by MEA. Also based solely upon the representations of UVEC, MEA further understands that no MEA funds or resources will be used in the construction of this project, and that UVEC will be solely responsible for all costs related to the construction, operation, and retirement of this wind generation capacity. In good faith reliance upon the representations of UVEC, MEA respectfully requests that UVEC consider this a “Letter of Non-Objection” to having the UVEC move forward with its Unalakleet Wind Project.

This letter is to provide you with the necessary information needed for your review of the above listed project. | have included a vicinity and project location map that clearly shows the location of our project (Figure 1). For the purposes of the National Historic Preservation Act, we are initiating this consultation and requesting your concurrence of “No Historic Properties Affected” pursuant to 36 CFR 800.3. Tribal consultation was initiated for the project on June oe 2009 via letters to Unalakleet Native Corporation, Bering Straits Native Corporation, Kawerak, Inc., and the Native Village of Unalakleet. A representative of Kawerak, Inc, Mr. Roy Ashenfelter, called HDL on June 9, 2009 to respond to the letter he had received. He stated that since Kawerak does not keep records that pertain to historical or cultural sites they would not be responding to this request for information. On June 10, 2009 HDL received a letter from the Native Village of Unalakleet stating that there are no sites of traditional, religious, or cultural importance within the Area of Potential Effect as illustrated by the map that we provided. The community of Unalakleet is located at the mouth of the Unalakleet River, 148 miles southeast of Nome and 395 miles northwest of Anchorage. The population of the community consists of 87.7% Alaska Native or part Native. The local economy is the most active in Norton Sound, along with a traditional Unaligmiut Eskimo subsistence lifestyle. 813 West Northern Lights Boulevard e Anchorage, Alaska 99503-2495 www.aidea.org @ 907/771-3000 e FAX 907/771-3044 e Toll Free (Alaska Only) 888/300-8534 e www.akenergyauthority.org This project proposes the construction of six Northwind-100 wind turbines on a hill to the north of Unalakleet. This location was selected as the preferred turbine location in the Feasibility Study for Unalakleet Wind Energy Project prepared by Global Energy Concepts because of it’s class 5 wind resource and year- round access is maintained in the immediate vicinity. The majority of the land that will be affected by the wind turbine and transmission line is owned by the local native corporation. There will be no changes to the current land or water use as a result of this project. Wind turbines could offer a much-needed source of renewable electrical energy where fossil fuels are difficult and expensive to deliver. The Area of Potential Effect (APE) as shown on the attached figure (Figure 2). A search of the Alaska Heritage Resources Survey (AHRS) files at the Alaska Office of History and Archaeology (OHA) did not identify any sites located in the project area. Therefore, we are requesting concurrence from the State Historic Preservation Office that “no historic properties would be affected” by the proposed project. If you wish to discuss the project, please contact myself or Terri Mitchell at HDL. Ms. Mitchell can be reached at 907-564-2120 or via e-mail at tmitchell@hdlalaska.com. We respectfully request that you respond within 30 days of your receipt of this correspondence. Your timely response will be greatly appreciated.
