The motion passed without objection. 7.OLD BUSINESS A.Insurance BPMC Minutes 6/28/17 Page 1 of 5 Mr.Gibson provided a review of the insurance requirements under the Power Sales Agreement and Bond Resolution,as previously assigned by Chair Borgeson.Mr.Woolf informed the Finance Committee analyzed the revised renewal for insurance.A premium increase was noted for additional general liability,crime and fiduciary coverage.Errors in pricing were found and are being reconciled to reflect current rates. Mr.Woolf reported a maximum and probable loss calculation has not been completed in nine years.The Finance Committee requested $10,000 to study and evaluate the maximum and probable loss calculation to determine the appropriate amount of coverage necessary. Mr.Carey stated a probable maximum loss study on the property was completed a year ago through CEA and came in at about $48 million.The big components of the insurance is the property and the equipment breakdowns.He noted there is no current study on the probable maximum loss of equipment breakdown.Within the last 10 years,the equipment breakdown insurance coverage amount has increased in line with the increase in property coverage. Mr.Janorschke informed he will abstain from voting because he is on the ARECA Insurance Exchange Board of Directors. MOTION:Mr.Lamb made a motion to approve the insurance proposal beginning 7/1/17, as presented.Motion seconded by Mr.Warner. Mr.Lamb expressed support of the maximum probable loss calculation analysis. A roll call vote was taken,and the motion passed,with Mr.Janorschke abstaining. B.Spillway Raise Mr.Warner,O&D Chair,informed the O&D Committee met earlier this month and discussed five different options for the spillway raise.By unanimous vote,the O&D Committee recommends the spillway raise project be deferred to a later time to evaluate all options. MOTION:Mr.Izzo made a motion to defer the spillway raise project to a later time. Motion seconded by Mr.Thibert. A roll call vote was taken,and the motion passed unanimously. 8.NEW BUSINESS A.Battle Creek Update Mr.Carey began the update and informed he completed the Chair's assignment to provide an expense detail of the $800,000.This was emailed to all members.The current request for $400,000 includes bid costs,partial construction funding for survey and brushing work,and completion of electrical and dam design changes based on feedback from Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC).Mr.Carey reviewed the proposed three-year timeline. Department of Natural Resources (DNR)is expected to release their final decision regarding the land lease around July 20th,after which the flagging for the brush limit and surveying to clear a path for the route will occur.The Corps of Engineers is reviewing the wetlands permit and no delays are expected.The Request for Proposal (RFP)is expected to be released in late August.The contractor site visit is expected in mid-September.Proposals are currently due BPMC Minutes 6/28/17 Page 2 of 5 November 15th,but this date could be extended to ensure enough time to respond.Road construction would begin in 2018.Pipe installation would occur in 2019.The water diversion would begin at the end of 2019.The diversion dam could be completed in 2020. Mr.1zzo expressed concern over the additional $400,000 requested and asked that change orders be brought before the BPMC in a timely manner.Mr.Izzo noted he cannot authorize an increase without bringing it before the MEA Board. Mr.Thibert commented change orders are unavoidable at the beginning of a project and having a change of scope from FERC was not predictable.These changes will benefit the project but would like to see the BPMC receive more timely notice of change orders. Mr.Carey stated the delay was due to wanting to get the final brushing numbers before he presented the additional funding request.He was not able to get a contractor out in a timely manner so didn't want to delay the request further. Chair Borgeson commented over three million dollars has been spent thus far on Battle Creek and he has no confidence the additional $400,000 is an accurate amount.GVEA is not in favor of the additional funding and declines participation without assurances from AEA. Mr.Thibert presented Resolution 2017-01B to be given to the AEA Board,reaffirming commitment to the Battle Creek project.CEA offered to help manage the Battle Creek project and advised they will provide the backstop for additional funding. MOTION:Mr.Thibert made a motion to approve Resolution 2017-01.Motion seconded by Mr.Janorschke. Mr.Warner expressed his understanding the reference to participating utilities in the resolution does not include the participation of ML&P at this time,but does not preclude ML&P from opting to participate in the future.Mr.Gibson agreed. Mr.lzzo asked Mr.Gibson if an affirmative vote to adopt Resolution 2017-01 would,by default, commit MEA to a portion of the $400,000 overrun.Mr.Gibson offered a friendly amendment to be inserted which reads,"Now therefore,be it resolved,the BPMC authorizes and supports the efforts of purchasing utilities desiring to develop the Battle Creek Diversion Project to work with AEA to finance and bid the project in 2017."He believes this language adds comfort to everyone at the table and those that want to move forward can move forward and those who do not want to move forward are not committing to financing.Mr.Gibson offered a friendly amendment that the phrase participating utilities be changed to purchasing utilities throughout the resolution.The two friendly amendments were accepted by the Maker of the Motion and the Second. Mr.Gibson noted Chair Borgeson assigned him to review the methodology with Brian Bjorkquist for the Battle Creek project to go forward as optional work,with less than full member participation.Mr.Gibson gave members information containing a memo summarizing his draft resolution,the draft resolution he created,an attachment containing granular information and two assignments for the operator.Mr.Gibson gave a thorough explanation,outlining the intent to develop a fair and neutral framework for the Battle Creek project,which would have no adverse effect on the Bradley Lake project. Mr.Gibson believes his draft resolution is a good next step on how to move forward if Resolution 2017-01 is approved. BPMC Minutes 6/28/17 Page 3 of 5 Chair Borgeson expressed GVEA supports the Battle Creek project and will support the resolution.He noted concerns regarding meeting the aggressive timeline presented,because the participation agreements have to be created in order for the financing to be put in place,all before it goes to bid by the beginning of September. A roll call vote was taken,and the motion passed unanimously. Chair Borgeson informed he will call a work session the third week of July to specifically focus on moving the Battle Creek project forward. B.AEA Regulation Change Update Ms.Webster distributed the amended AEA regulation changes to all members regarding qualified operators for AEA owned power projects.She explained the State of Alaska regulation amendment process,which takes approximately five to seven months.If all goes according to the timeline,the proposed amendments should be effective in November 2017. Cc.Railbelt Cooperation Chair Borgeson discussed the diligent cooperation efforts of the six Railbelt managers.He showed a video that illustrates the talking points of Railbelt manager cooperation.The video will be shared with legislators,agencies,and the Governor. D.Report to AEA Board Mr.Thibert noted a draft of the report was sent to all members.Mr.Thibert gave an overview of the report and reviewed the few modifications he will make to the draft.Mr.Thibert stated he will lead off the presentation to AEA with the video shared by Chair Borgeson and then will present the report. 9.COMMITTEE REPORTS None. 10.OPERATOR REPORT Mr.Day submitted the Operator Report.He gave a detailed account of the Marker Ball Installation project.Bradley Lake has been running at a single unit due to the SVC construction. Full output will occur when the SVC comes back into service. 11.COMMITTEE ASSIGNMENTS Chair Borgeson assigned the Finance Committee provide the Committee with cost specifics of a maximum and probable loss calculation study and recommendations of who will complete the study. Chair Borgeson assigned Mr.Thibert coordinate the additional $400,000 of Battle Creek funding before the designated work can commence. Chair Borgeson asked Mr.Carey for a risk assessment of consequences for Battle Creek if the project does not meet its timeline and is delayed a year. BPMC Minutes 6/28/17 Page 4 of 5 Chair Borgeson assigned the Committee,as a whole,a Battle Creek working session during the third week of July. Chair Borgeson assigned the Operator to complete the two assignments,Exhibit B.and C.,fromMr.Gibson's Attachment 1.;methodology and procedures for cost allocation,and water management and allocation for Battle Creek. 12.MEMBERS COMMENTS Mr.Thibert expressed gratitude to members for their support of the Battle Creek project.

MOTION:Mr.Johnston made a motion to table the Spill Raise Decision and assign the O&D Committee conduct further analysis.Motion seconded by Mr.Lamb.Chair Borgeson asked AEA to delay any expenditures until the spill raise decision is made.Mr.Carey agreed. The motion passed without objection. 8.NEW BUSINESS A.Insurance Members asked questions regarding the provided 2017 insurance proposal.The Valuation report of $50M was done in 2009 this cost is for replacement of the powerhouse and electronics.The estimated probable maximum loss can be insured up to $50M if a large earthquake occurred.The premium increased seven percent due to changes in the policy from a property-casualty form to the All Risk Blanket policy.Addition increases are due to the policy not having been charged as much as it should have been in the last couple of years for the coverage.Mr.Borgeson noticed there was no General liability coverage and it should be at least $2M.Homer Electric will review their Commercial General Liability policy to see if the Generalliabilitycoverageisthere. Chair Borgeson will ask the finance committee to review the policy before the June 28 meeting. The 2017insurance proposal must be approved by June 30,2017 to stay in compliance forcontinuouscoverage. B.Motorized Land Access Permits Mr.Carey described the issue of requests from individuals to cross the Bradley land on snow machine mainly for access to landlocked property and traps.He advised Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC)and agencies agree it is permissible for visitors to have a limited amount of motorized travel across Bradley property through a restricted permit process. This is not a general public use permit. MOTION:Mr.Johnston made a motion to approve the presented motorized land access permits.Motion seconded by Mr.Thibert. DRAFT BPMC Minutes 5/30/17 Page 2 of 5 Mr.Gibson recommended HEA be included in the authority to terminate the permit for any reason. Chair Borgeson inquired about existing policies regarding approval or disapproval of permits. Mr.Carey informed no policies exist,but the FERC letter references limited access and not general access.Chair Borgeson noted the five-page AEA permit does not specifically state motorized access.The two-page HEA permit does reference motorized travel.Some modifications will be done to both forms including adding traveler's names to the permit. The motion passed without objection. C.Allocation &Scheduling Procedures Mr.Wick discussed the Revised Allocation and Scheduling Procedures as of May 30,2017. The O&D Committee generated the updates and revisions based on the current methodologyanduse.The O&D Committee recommends its adoption. MOTION:Mr.Johnston made a motion to adopt the Revised Allocation and Scheduling Proceduresin substantial form as discussed during the meeting,with an effective date ofMay30,2017.Motion seconded by Mr.Day.Mr.Day commented Mr.Wick dedicated a considerable amount of effortin revising the procedures.He noted the dispatcher now declares impending spills or spill conditions,rather than AEA.Mr.Day believes thisis significant because the dispatcher |is aware of the currentstatusatBradleyLake.: Mr.Lamb informed AEA iis happy with the revisions. Mr.Gibson requested he provide non-substantive edits to the final document,which are important for clarity and consistency.Chair Borgeson informed he will assign Mr.Gibson to make the housekeeping edits to the document.The final document can be presented to the BPMC as information in the next Board packet. A roll call was taken,and the motion passed unanimously. D.«Dynamic Dispatch Update Mr.Wick advised there have been no changes between ML&P and CEA on dynamic scheduling.GVEA conducts dynamic scheduling manually.Installation of a new system is ongoing.MEA does not utilize their dynamic dispatch capability.HEA is experiencing delays in resolving issues and should be operational within a few weeks. Chair Borgeson expressed appreciation to CEA and staff for their flexibility during this process. E.Discussion of Bradley Lake Power Sales Agreement Addendum or Change to Bylaws Mr.Thibert led a discussion regarding a possible amendment to the Power Sales Agreement to address participation in the Battle Creek project.The second issue focussed on whether or not a modification to the Bylaws was appropriate to accommodate the additional Project work.Mr. Gibson believes all of the topics of concern can be addressed at the operator level.He DRAFT BPMC Minutes 5/30/17 Page 3 of5 suggested the operator track the specific costs for Battle Creek and the BPMC determine the annual allocation of benefits and costs.Mr.Gibson will continue his diligent review and provide further direction to the members. Mr.Johnston commented ML&P has discussed the possibility of proceeding with the Battle Creek diversion project under an agreement with one or more of the other partners to pay for and receive the benefit of ML&P's share. Chair Borgeson expressed his understanding that all six utility members are supportive of the Battle Creek project going forward,but all members may not participate in the Battle Creekpowerandmaywanttoseparateitout.: Mr.Janorschke requested Mr.Gibson create a draft resolution to be discussed at a future meeting allowing the optional project work to move forward.He requested Mr.Gibson review apossibleBylawprovisiontoensureBattleCreekparticipantshavetheopportunitytobeinvolvedinanychangestoBattleCreekwaterallocation.S, Chair Borgeson does not believe a resolution for optional project work can go forward without secured financing and additional accounting by members.Chair Borgeson will assign Mr. Gibson to work on modifications to go forward with Battle Creek as optional project work.Mr.Carey gave an update on the project timeline.FERC Dam Safetyis reviewing the Battle Creek design and comments are expected in July.The Department of Natural Resources (DNR)land lease amendment is anticipated to be completed by July 20th,after which the surveying and flagging for brush-cutters would begin.Additional work on bid specifications fortheRequestforProposal(RFP)will take approximately four to six weeks.Mr.Carey stated thedeterminationofmembercommitmentanddeliveryofadditionalfundsmustbemadebeforetheendofJunetoattaintheAugustRFPtimelinegoal.. 9.COMMITTEE REPORTS " None. 10.OPERATOR REPORTMr.Day submitted the Operator Report.'A full Bradley outageis scheduled and coordinated for three to five days next week to work on the transmission line.Mr.Day reported contact with the Homer Fire Department is ongoing to familiarize them with the facility in case of emergency. 11.COMMITTEE ASSIGNMENTS Chair Borgeson assigned the O&D Committee to review the spillway extension work completed by DOWL and report back to the members regarding the financial benefits.

The June 1 letter is irrelevant to this decision.While the June 1 Letter is insufficient to eliminate all concern (particularly the use of the word "currently”in the language quoted in the first paragraph above),it also does not exacerbate the concern or constitute an action that requires such disclosure. In order to rise to the level of a disclosure event,!believe the Protesting Utilities (or any of the Designated Utilities,for that matter)would have to make statements that would amount to an anticipatory breach of their contract obligations.This is something that |believe the Protesting Utilities have been cautious to avoid so far. 2.The second issue that arose as a result of the comments made by the Protesting Utilities was whether a new bond issuance would require disclosure of the Protesting Utilities'comments to the purchasers of the new bonds.The test for answering this issue is different from the test for continuing disclosure under EMMA. The test for a new bond issuance would be whether those comments would be a material factor that a new bond purchaser should know before purchasing the new bonds.In the absence of a clear re-affirmation of both the Protesting Utilities' understanding of,and their commitment to,their obligations under the PSA,their prior comments create enough uncertainty that a disclosure would be necessary. The June 1 Letter (particularly the use of the word "currently”in the language quoted in the first paragraph above)does not sufficiently remove the uncertainty created by the prior comments.Tne June 1 Letter actually worsens the situation with respect to those Designated Utilities that did not make the prior comments that created the LAW OFFICE OF KENNETH E.VASSAR,LLC Alaska Energy Authority -Bradley Lake June 13 2017 Page 3 uncertainty in the first place,because those other utilities would be part of a letter that conditions their commitment by stating that this is only "currently”their commitment. 3.What would be required to avoid the need for disclosing the prior comments of the Protesting Utilities in the circumstance of a new bond financing?We would need a clear and unconditioned re-affirmation of the Protesting Utilities' commitment to the terms of the PSA. I think it is a mistake (a mistake in which |have taken part)to use the short-hand term "take-or-pay.”The Protesting Utilities need to clearly and unconditionally state: A.They understand and re-affirm,notwithstanding statements previously made,that they must satisfy the requirements of Section 7(b)of the PSA ("Each Purchaser shall make payments in the amounts and at the times required by this Agreement notwithstanding a suspension or reduction in the amount of power supplied by the Project.Such payments shail not be subject to any reduction,by offset or otherwise.The parties intend and interpret the foregoing two sentences to mean that the obligation to make such payments shall be absolute and unconditional and unaffected by any interruption,interference,or curtailment in whole or in part of the power supplied by the Project.” B.They understand and _re-affirm,notwithstanding statements previously made,that they must satisfy the requirements of Section 9(a)of the PSA ("Each Purchaser shall continue to make payments in the event of any dispute regarding performance of any obligation by any party under this Agreement or in the event of any dispute under the Bond Resolution,and this obligation of continued payment pending resolution of disputes shall be immediately enforceable by any party upon application to any court of competent jurisdiction.” 4.There has been some recent discussion about a new bond financing for an improvement to the Bradley Lake Project and perhaps an amendment to the PSA to allow that new financing to be secured by something other than the covenants contained in the provisions from the PSA quoted in paragraph 3.Assuming that the LAW OFFICE OF KENNETH E.VASSAR,LLC Alaska Energy Authority -Bradley Lake June 13 2017 Page 4 new financing does not rely at all upon those provisions of the PSA,then no such re- affirmation would be required.However,additional research will need to be done to determine whether and how such a new kind of financing can be done under the PSA and under the Power Revenue Bond Resolution and also whether the consent of existing bondholders wilt be required to permit it.We will need more detail about the proposed new financing to work through those issues. 5.Since the June 1 Letter is irrelevant to the issue described in paragraph 1 above and does not satisfy the requirements for the issues described in paragraphs 2 - 3 above,it makes no difference to me whether the Designated Utilities choose to sign and deliver the June 1 Letter,although,as |mentioned in paragraph 2 above,adding utilities to the June 1 Letter that have not made the comments that caused our concern in the first place seems to be a step backward for those utilities. These are my thoughts,and |hope they are helpful.Please let me know if you would like to discuss further.
