A-1, Contractor shall give notice to Owner whenever any such part of the Equipment or Owner Equipment, as applicable, or foundations is or are ready or about to be ready for examination and Owner shall, without unreasonable delay, attend (or
inform Contractor that it is unnecessary for it to attend) for the purpose of examining and measuring such part of the Equipment or Owner Equipment, as applicable, or of examining such Work. No part of such Equipment or Owner Equipment shall be
covered up or put out of view without affording Owner a reasonable opportunity to examine and measure any such part of the Equipment or Owner Equipment.

5.6 Uncovering and Making Openings. If, following discovery of defective workmanship or materials in any part of the Work, Owner has reasonable grounds to suspect that further parts of the Work may
be similarly defective, Contractor shall, upon the reasonable request of Owner, provide Owner clear evidence that such other parts are not defective to the reasonable satisfaction of Owner or shall uncover such further parts of the Work or make
further openings, in or through the same, and Contractor shall inspect and repair, if necessary, any such parts. The costs of such work carried out by Contractor under this Section shall be part of the ***, unless the parts of the Work so uncovered
turn out to be not defective, in which case Owner shall bear such costs.

Section 7.2, make any correction or modification that should properly be made to any amount previously considered due.

(b) If Owner provides no exceptions within such time period, Owner shall pay Contractor, within *** Days of its receipt of such *** and such substantiating documentation and materials as Owner may have reasonably required, in U.S. dollars
the amounts designated in such ***, plus any additions and less any deductions which may have become due under this Agreement, as reflected in such ***. Any amount of a *** that Owner disputes shall be resolved promptly in accordance with Article

perform any Services or provide any Equipment in accordance with this Agreement and Owner has so notified Contractor in writing, Owner may withhold from any Monthly Payment Invoice the estimated value of such Work until it has been performed or
provided in accordance with this Agreement.

7.5 ***

(a) *** Contractor in prior ***, and the amount of such *** that exceeds *** threshold, together with the total cumulative amounts for all prior Monthly Payment Invoices, will not cause the Contractor to
exceed the total cumulative value of the Cash Flow Plan through such month, then Owner shall pay such Monthly Payment Invoice in full. ***.

(b) The Parties acknowledge that nothing in this Section limits, and the Parties shall not construe this Section as limiting, Contractors ability to accelerate Key Contractor Schedule Milestones,
provided that Owner shall not be obligated to pay more than the *** Amount for any given month. The Parties also acknowledge and agree that nothing in this Section limits, and the Parties shall not construe this Section as limiting,
Contractors ability to update the Schedule, other than delaying the Key Contractor Schedule Milestones, in accordance with Section 6.2. ***.

7.6 Final Payment. Upon achievement of Final Completion, Contractor shall submit to Owner an invoice for the final payment and other payments due under this Agreement (the Final Payment
Invoice) which shall set forth all remaining amounts due to it pursuant to this Agreement. When submitting the Final Payment Invoice, Contractor shall submit a written notice, reasonably satisfactory to Owner, confirming that the total of
the applicable Final Payment Invoice represents full and final settlement of all monies due to Contractor under this Agreement. If requested by Owner, the Final Payment Invoice shall also include a waiver (or a bond if a Lien exists to indemnify
Owner against such Lien) of any Liens; provided, that the waiver or bond may contain a requirement that Owner pay such Final Payment Invoice. The procedures set forth in Section 7.2(b) (including application of any late payment
charge) shall be followed for payment of the applicable Final Payment Invoice, and Owner shall be entitled to offset against any Monthly Payment Invoice or Final Payment Invoice any amounts owing by Contractor to Owner under this Agreement,
including any Liquidated Damages owed after application of the cost sharing provisions in Section 7.3.

7.7 Certification by
Contractor. In each Monthly Payment Invoice and in the Final Payment Invoice, Contractor shall certify as follows:

There are no known Liens (or such Liens are bonded over) outstanding at the date of this invoice, all amounts that are due and payable to any third party (including Subcontractors) with respect to the Work as of the date of this
invoice have been paid or are included in the amount requested in this invoice, and, except for those bills not



28



---

paid but so included and amounts disputed between Owner and Contractor, there is no known basis for the creation of any Liens, except in respect to payments to any Subcontractor withheld for
proper reasons in accordance with the contract with such Subcontractor. Contractor hereby waives and releases, to the extent of the receipt of payment requested in this invoice, any right to any Lien with respect to payment for such portion of the
Work included in this invoice.

7.8 No Acceptance by Payment. Owners payment of any invoice, including a Final Payment
Invoice, does not constitute approval or acceptance of any item or cost in that invoice nor shall be construed to relieve Contractor of any of its obligations under this Agreement.

7.9 Revenue from Use of Facility. Owner shall be entitled to all revenue derived from or in connection with operation or use of the Facility before and after the Substantial Completion Date.



|8. | CHANGE ORDERS
|-- | -------------

8.1 Changes.
Without invalidating this Agreement, Owner may order changes in the Specifications or the Work consisting of additions, deletions or other revisions (each, a Change), provided, that Owner may not delete all Work through
this Article.

8.2 Change Proposals. If Owner desires to make a Change, it shall submit a written proposal to Contractor describing the
Change requested. Contractor shall promptly review Owners proposal and submit to Owner an estimate of the cost to develop a Change Order for such Change, such development costs to be estimated consistent with ***. If the estimated costs to
develop the Change Order are reasonably acceptable to Owner, Owner shall promptly provide notice thereof to Contractor in writing. Upon receipt of such notice, Contractors Project Manager shall promptly notify Owner in writing, as soon as
practicable, either by giving reasons why Contractor, either directly or indirectly through a Subcontractor, could not effect such Change (if this is the case) or by submitting a proposed Change Order, which shall include in reasonable detail:

(a) the effect and impact, if any, that the Change would have, in Contractors reasonable judgment, on the Work, *** the
Schedule, any warranties herein and the operation or maintenance of the Facility,

(b) Contractors proposal for any
necessary modifications to Work, *** the Schedule or any warranties herein, and

(c) Contractors proposal for any
necessary modifications to any other provisions of this Agreement, including the Specifications, the Milestones, the Cash Flow Plan or the Performance Guarantees.

Contractor shall provide Owner such supporting documentation for the foregoing as Owner may reasonably request. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Contractor shall not, as a result thereof, be entitled to any
payment hereunder or any extension of the Schedule if such Change was necessary as a result of the fault of Contractor, including any breach by Contractor of this Agreement. For all proposed Change Orders to the scope of Work, the Parties agree that
the Contractor shall apply or deduct, as applicable, *** to implement or remove such scope of Work, as applicable. Owner shall, as soon as practicable after receipt of such submittal and supporting documentation, respond with any comments or
questions. Contractor shall not delay any Work while awaiting a response. If Owner



29



---

responds with comments or questions, Contractor shall endeavor to address such comments or answer such questions as soon as practicable. If Owner decides not to proceed with a Change, it shall
reimburse Contractor for its efforts in developing the estimates and other information regarding the potential Change *** (such reimbursement to be either outside the Contract Price or through a separate Change Order); provided, that Owner
shall only be required to reimburse Contractor if Contractor has complied with the cost proposal requirements set forth above.

8.3 Change
Orders. If Owner wishes to proceed with the Change, Owner shall issue a written order to Contractor authorizing the Change and setting forth any revisions to this Agreement that it deems, in good faith, necessary or appropriate to effect the
Change (the Change Order). If Contractor refuses to accept such revisions in the Change Order, Contractor shall provide Owner written notice thereof within ten (10) Business Days of its receipt of the Change Order, describing
in reasonable detail its objections to the Change Order. Owner shall be entitled, despite such notice from Contractor, to require Contractor to continue to perform its obligations hereunder as would be modified by the Change Order; provided, that,
if Owner requires Contractor to so perform and Contractor has provided Owner timely notice objecting to such Change Order, (x) the Parties shall resolve the Dispute over the necessary or appropriate revisions in accordance with the dispute
resolution procedures set forth in Article 28 and (y) if the Change involves additional or disputed Work, Owner shall continue to pay Contractor pursuant to the payment terms hereof, subject to resolution of the Dispute pursuant to
Article 28 (Owner may require any dispute over price to be resolved pursuant to an open book process), ***. Once the Dispute is resolved, any amount owing will be paid within thirty (30) Days after the date of resolution.
Contractor shall furnish to Owner such receipts or other vouchers as may be necessary to prove the amounts paid and labor performed on *** and, before ordering materials, shall submit to Owner quotations for the same for Owners approval (such
approval not to be unreasonably delayed or withheld). Promptly after the end of each month, Contractor shall deliver to Owner a priced statement of the labor and materials used during such month associated with such Change performed on ***.

8.4 Owner Caused Changes. If Contractor experiences an increase in costs or a delay in Contractors ability to perform the Work
due to Owner or due to a delay in the delivery of any Owner Equipment or a delay resulting from a defect in any Owner Equipment or a breach of the Owner Equipment Contracts by the suppliers of the Owner Equipment, and such delay or defect is not the
result of Contractors failure to comply with the requirements of this Agreement, Contractor shall be entitled to a Change and an equitable adjustment in the *** and/or the Schedule.

8.5 Contractor Proposed Changes. Contractor shall have the right to request a Change but shall have no right to require a Change which is not
contemplated by this Agreement without the prior written consent of Owner; however, nothing herein shall be construed to restrict Contractors right to request an equitable adjustment in the *** and Schedule to mitigate impacts caused by events
such as, but not limited to, Force Majeure and Change in Law.



|9. | FORCE MAJEURE
|-- | -------------

9.1 Event of Force
Majeure. The performance by Owner or Contractor under this Agreement shall be excused to the extent that such Partys performance is delayed or prevented by reason of an event of Force Majeure. If a Party is or will be reasonably prevented
from performing its obligations under this Agreement by an event of Force Majeure, such Party shall use all commercially reasonable efforts to remove the cause affecting such non-performance and to minimize and mitigate any delay in or impact upon
the performance of this Agreement or any damage to or other impact upon the



30



---

Equipment or the Owner Equipment. If an event of Force Majeure occurs, the Parties shall *** to: (a) *** for a period of time reasonably necessary to overcome the effect of the delay, and
(b) the Contract Price, ***; provided, that Contractor shall *** on Change Orders which result from an event of Force Majeure.

9.2 Notice. If a Party is or will be reasonably prevented from performing its obligations under this Agreement by an event of Force Majeure, then it shall notify the other Party of the obligations, the performance of which is or will
be prevented, and the nature and cause of the event in writing within *** after the notifying Party or its Project Manager becomes aware, through the exercise of reasonable diligence, of the event of Force Majeure. The Party affected by an event of
Force Majeure shall provide the other Party with weekly updates (a) estimating its expected duration, the cost of any remedial action, and the probable impact on the performance of its obligations hereunder, (b) of the actions taken to
remove or overcome the event of Force Majeure and (c) of the efforts taken to mitigate or limit damages to the other Party. The Party affected by an event of Force Majeure shall also provide written notice to the other Party when it ceases to
be so affected.

9.3 Suspension; Termination Due to Force Majeure. If any event of Force Majeure claimed by Contractor delays
Contractors performance for an aggregate time period greater than *** consecutive Days, then Owner, in its sole and absolute discretion, shall have the right to terminate this Agreement (or the affected portion of the Work) without penalty in
accordance with Section 23.7. If any event of Force Majeure claimed by Owner delays Contractors performance of substantially all of the Work for an aggregate time period greater than *** consecutive Days, then Contractor, in its
sole and absolute discretion, shall have the right to suspend performance and demobilize under this Agreement without penalty in accordance with Section 23.7. If any event of Force Majeure claimed by Owner delays Contractors
performance of substantially all of the Work in any *** time period for an aggregate time period greater than *** Days, then Contractor, in its sole and absolute discretion, shall have the right to terminate this Agreement without penalty in
accordance with Section 23.7.



|10. | MECHANICAL COMPLETION; PERFORMANCE TESTING; SUBSTANTIAL COMPLETION; FINAL COMPLETION
|--- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

10.1 Mechanical Completion Inspection. At least thirty (30) Days prior to the date upon which Contractor expects to achieve Mechanical Completion, Contractor shall notify Owner in writing
thereof and shall take necessary measures to allow a preliminary inspection of the Facility to be conducted by Owner and its representatives. Contractor shall include with such notice documents and information prudent or convenient for Owner to
determine whether Mechanical Completion is achieved. If Owner notifies Contractor of any deficiencies in the Work, Contractor shall immediately remedy such deficiencies as part of the *** and provide Owner with the relevant documentary evidence of
the correction.

10.2 Mechanical Completion. Mechanical Completion shall be deemed to have occurred upon
satisfaction of all of the following conditions:

(a) All materials, equipment and systems related to the safe start-up and

systems for the Facility shall have been checked for alignment, lubrication, rotation and hydrostatic and pneumatic pressure integrity;

(b) All systems and components for the Facility shall have been flushed and cleaned out as necessary, and the Equipment and Owner Equipment
for the Facility shall be ready to support the commencement of Performance Testing for the Facility;

(c) The Parties shall
have agreed upon the Testing Procedures for the Facility;

(d) The Equipment and Owner Equipment for the Facility shall be
capable of being tested in accordance with Exhibit A-2 without damage thereto or any other portion of the Facility or to any property or injury to any Person and in compliance with all applicable Laws and all permits and licenses required by
such Laws;

(e) Contractor shall have provided the applicable Documentation that is needed to start-up, operate and maintain
the Facility (including the O&M Manuals), which Documentation shall have been approved, in the reasonable determination of Owner, as adequate for the start-up, operation and maintenance of the Facility (such approval not to be unreasonably
withheld or delayed);

(f) Contractor shall have provided the training of Owners personnel and representatives as
required by Exhibit A-1 for operation of the Facility; and

(g) Contractor shall have delivered to Owner a certificate
signed by Contractor certifying that all of the preceding conditions in this Section 0 have been satisfied.

Contractor shall
not commence Performance Testing for the Facility until all of the above conditions for Mechanical Completion have been satisfied and Contractor shall have provided the required prior notice to Owner of the applicable Performance Testing and given
Owner an opportunity to attend.

If Contractor is unable to satisfy any of the foregoing conditions as a result of any event or
circumstance for which neither Contractor nor any Subcontractor is responsible, the improper performance of any Owner Equipment or any other fault of any supplier of any Owner Equipment, and Contractor has complied with its obligations relating to
such Owner Equipment in accordance with Section 3.1(a)(ii), Contractor shall be entitled to a Change Order providing, at Owners election, that such condition is deemed to have been satisfied (but only to the extent Contractor is
unable to satisfy such condition) or for *** and the Schedule or otherwise as may be reasonable under the circumstances.

10.3
Performance Testing. As soon as reasonably practicable following Mechanical Completion and after providing Owner at least five (5) Business Days prior written notice (unless Owner agrees to a shorter notice period or regulatory
requirements necessitate a longer notice period), Contractor shall commence Performance Testing of the Facility, which Performance Testing shall be completed in accordance with Exhibit A-2. Owner and its agents, representatives and invitees,
including any independent third party inspector and any of its other contractors for the Project or their respective agents, representatives and invitees, shall have the right to attend and witness the Performance Testing. After the completion of
Performance Testing for the Facility, Contractor shall determine and submit to Owner, in writing and electronically, the raw data and completed results of such Performance Testing, together with a comparison of such results to the applicable
Performance



32



---

Guarantees and a statement whether such results satisfy the applicable Performance Guarantees. By submitting such raw data and completed results, Contractor represents that such raw data, and the
conversion of such raw data into the test results, is accurate.

10.4 Satisfaction of Performance Testing. Within *** Days after it
receives the results for all of the Performance Testing for the Facility, including the underlying raw data and other information required by Section 10.3, Owner shall respond in writing to Contractor stating whether (a) such
Performance Testing was performed according to the Testing Procedures, and (b) the results of such Performance Testing satisfied the applicable Performance Guarantees, or, if Owner does not believe that is the case, Owner shall provide its
reasons. Upon its receipt of any such response from Owner that is not in the affirmative, Contractor shall promptly take whatever action shall be necessary to cure the defect in such Performance Testing, adjust or modify any of the Equipment, or
require adjustment or modification of Owner Equipment in accordance with Section 3.1(a)(ii), or otherwise in order to satisfy the applicable Performance Guarantees so noted by Owner and shall promptly repeat such Performance Testing in
accordance with Section 10.3 and this Section. If, following such Performance Testing, either: (a) Owner agrees that the applicable Performance Guarantees have been satisfied and that such Performance Testing was performed according
to the Testing Procedures, (b) the failure to meet any applicable Performance Guarantee is attributable to the performance of Owner Equipment (other than due to Contractors failure to fulfill its obligations set forth in
Section 3.1(a)), or (c) Owner fails to respond within the time period set forth above, then the applicable Performance Guarantees shall be deemed to have been satisfied on the date of completion of such Performance Testing for the
purposes of calculating the applicable Delay Liquidated Damages. Notwithstanding anything in this Article to the contrary, no agreement, confirmation, statement or otherwise of, or the lack thereof from, Owner relating to whether such Performance
Testing was performed according to the Testing Procedures or whether the results of such Performance Testing satisfied the applicable Performance Guarantees shall relieve Contractor of any of its obligations under this Agreement. All costs that
Contractor incurs in satisfying its obligations under this Article are part of the ***, except that Contractor shall be reimbursed through a Change Order for additional costs it may incur due to defects in Owner Equipment that are not the result of
Contractors failure to comply with the requirements set forth in this Agreement or damage to Equipment included in the Facility that was not the fault of Contractor or any Subcontractor, including for any repeat Performance Testing and the
consumables and spare parts associated therewith.

10.5 Substantial Completion Punch List. Prior to Substantial Completion, Contractor
shall submit to Owner, for Owners review and approval (not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed), the Substantial Completion Punch List. Following review and approval of such Substantial Completion Punch List, Contractor shall work
diligently to complete all items contained thereon in a timely manner in accordance with this Agreement.

10.6 Substantial Completion.
Substantial Completion shall be deemed to have occurred upon satisfaction of all of the following conditions:

(a) Mechanical Completion shall have been achieved;

(b) The Facility shall be capable of being operated in
accordance with the Specifications without damage thereto or to any property or injury to any Person and in compliance with all Owner Permits, Laws and orders of all Government Authorities then in effect;

---

(c) Contractor shall have performed Performance Testing for the Facility and the results of
such Performance Testing shall have satisfied the applicable Minimum Performance Guarantees, all according to the applicable Testing Procedures and the requirements of Article 10;

(d) Contractor shall have completed the performance of the Services according to all of the provisions of this Agreement, with the exception
of those items specified in the Substantial Completion Punch List, which Contractor shall have prepared and for which Contractor shall have received approval from Owner (such approval not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed);

(e) Contractor shall have delivered to Owner all Documentation that Contractor is required to deliver to Owner pursuant to Exhibit
A-3; and

(f) Contractor shall have delivered to Owner a certificate signed by Contractor certifying that all of the
preceding conditions in this Section have been satisfied.

Owner shall accept the Facility, subject to Final Completion according to this Article 10, by delivering to Contractor notice of that acceptance promptly, and Contractor shall turn over risk of loss and care, custody, control and operation of
the Facility to Owner. For the purposes of calculating Liquidated Damages, the date upon which Contractor submits the certifying notice required by this Section 10.6 (if such notice is accurate) shall be deemed the Substantial Completion
Date.

If Contractor is unable to satisfy any of the foregoing conditions as a result of any event or circumstance for which neither
Contractor nor any Subcontractor is responsible or as a result of the improper performance of any Owner Equipment or any other fault of any supplier of any Owner Equipment and Contractor has complied with its obligations relating to such Owner
Equipment in accordance with Section 3.1(a)(ii), Contractor shall be entitled to a Change Order providing, at Owners election, that such condition is deemed to have been satisfied (but only to the extent Contractor is unable to
satisfy such condition) or for *** and the Guaranteed Substantial Completion Date or otherwise as may be reasonable under the circumstances.

10.7 Final Completion. Final Completion shall be deemed to have occurred upon satisfaction of all of the following conditions:

(a) Contractor shall have achieved all conditions for Substantial Completion;

(b) Contractor shall have completed all Performance Testing and either (i) all Performance Guarantees shall have been satisfied according to the Testing Procedures, or (ii) Contractor shall have satisfied all of the Make Right
Performance Guarantees and shall have satisfied its Performance Liquidated Damage obligations as required by Section 12.2 for those Performance Guarantees that allow a performance buy-down;

(c) The performance of the Services (except for Services relating to any warranty Work) shall be one hundred percent (100%) complete,
including the completion (or buying down) by Contractor of all items on the Substantial Completion Punch List in accordance with this Agreement;

|11. | OWNERS RIGHT TO OPERATE
|--- | ------------------------

11.1
Intentionally Omitted.

11.2 Owners Right to Operate Prior to Satisfaction of Performance Guarantees. If the Facility
fails to satisfy the Performance Guarantees during the Performance Testing or fails to achieve Substantial Completion by the Guaranteed Substantial Completion Date and the Facility can be operated in compliance with applicable Laws, Owner, in its
sole discretion, shall have the right nonetheless to operate the Facility and shall give Contractor written notice of its decision. If Owner elects to operate the Facility and, during such time, does not permit Contractor to cure the Defects
necessary to satisfy the Minimum Performance Guarantees, then the Guaranteed Substantial Completion Date and Guaranteed Final Completion Date (if such dates have not passed) shall be extended on an equitable basis until such time as Owner tenders
the Facility to Contractor for further Services and Performance Testing, and Contractor shall be entitled to a Change Order for equitable schedule and/or price adjustment. Owner shall bear the risk of loss during such time as it operates the
Facility. Owners operation of the Facility under this Section shall not reduce Contractors obligations under this Agreement, including Contractors obligation to cause the Facility to satisfy the Specifications and applicable
Performance Guarantees, except for normal wear and tear and operation not in accordance with the Specifications or Prudent Industry Practices. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, if Owner elects to operate the Facility for more than *** as
contemplated in this Section 11.2, and such election to operate prevents Contractor from proceeding timely with curing any Defects during such operating time, then the degradation curves set forth in Exhibit A-2 shall apply.

12.3 ***

12.4 Payment. The *** specified in Sections 12.1 and 12.2, if owing following the application of the provision of
Section 12.3, shall be due and payable *** written demand by Owner. *** that remain unpaid after the expiration of such ten-Day period shall bear interest at the Prime Interest Rate plus 4% per annum or the highest rate allowed by
applicable Law, whichever is less. Any *** disputed by Contractor and determined to be payable pursuant to the resolution of such dispute in accordance with this Agreement shall also bear interest from the expiration of the ten-Day period referred
to above at the Prime Interest Rate plus 4% per annum or the highest rate allowed by applicable Law, whichever is less. Notwithstanding the assessment of interest, and in addition to its other rights and remedies, Owner shall have the right to
offset the amount of any *** plus interest against any amounts due or that may become due to Contractor under this Agreement. Any amounts of *** determined to be wrongfully assessed against Contractor by Owner shall bear interest, from

the time such amounts were paid by Contractor or offset by Owner, at the Prime Interest Rate plus 4% per annum or the highest rate allowed by applicable Law, whichever is less.



|13. | WARRANTY
|--- | --------

13.1 Services Warranty
Period. Contractor warrants that all Services will be performed in a professional and workmanlike manner, will conform to the requirements of this Agreement, including the requirements set forth in Section 3.1(a)(ii), and will
reflect competent professional knowledge and judgment for a period commencing on the date such Service was performed and ending *** after the Substantial Completion Date (the Services Warranty Period), provided that the Services
Warranty Period for each Service performed with respect to the Substantial Completion Punch List shall commence upon Contractors completion of, and Owners acceptance of, such Service and shall continue for a period of *** thereafter or
after the Substantial Completion Date, whichever is later.

13.2 Equipment Warranty Period. Contractor warrants that the Equipment
furnished to Owner will be free from Defects in workmanship and material and will conform to this Agreement, including the Specifications, for a period of *** from Substantial Completion (the Equipment Warranty Period), provided
that the Equipment Warranty Period for each item on the Substantial Completion Punch List shall commence upon Contractors completion of, and Owners acceptance of, the particular Substantial Completion Punch List item and shall continue
for a period of *** thereafter or after the Substantial Completion Date, whichever is later. In addition, to the extent the Owner and Contractor negotiate an equipment warranty period with a Subcontractor that exceeds the time periods set forth
herein, Contractor shall assign for the benefit of the Owner any such warranty period that exceeds the *** period.

13.3 Extension of
Warranty Periods. If a Defect (as defined in Section 13.4) is discovered within the applicable Warranty Period and such Defect is not cured to the reasonable satisfaction of Owner, then the applicable Warranty Period shall be
extended to the *** of the date such Defect was corrected, but only with respect to the Equipment or Service that was the subject of such Defect. In no event shall any Services Warranty Period or Equipment Warranty Period extend beyond *** from the
Substantial Completion Date.

13.4 Defects. If, within the Services Warranty Period or Equipment Warranty Period, as applicable,
breaches or failures of the foregoing warranties (Defects) are discovered by Owner or Contractor, Contractor shall commence, within a timely manner upon being discovered or upon notice from Owner, to correct, and diligently and
continually prosecute measures which are reasonably calculated to correct, such Defects, including re-performance or re-provision of any affected portion of the Work and repair of any resulting damage, and shall demonstrate to Owners
reasonable satisfaction that such Defects have been properly corrected. The Parties shall use commercially reasonable efforts to coordinate performance of warranty Work at a time responsive to and consistent with Owners interest in the
efficient operation of its business and so as to minimize revenue loss to Owner and to avoid disruption of Owners operations at the Facility. Contractor shall be responsible for all inspection, removal, packaging, transportation, installation,
and consulting for the correction of Defects. Owner shall provide Contractor with reasonable access at the Site to correct Defects. All costs of correcting Warranty Defects shall be treated ***. All such Warranty costs shall be ***.

13.5 Responsibility for Warranty Work. Contractor shall have primary liability with respect to the
warranties in this Agreement other than for the Owner Equipment, whether or not any Defect or other matter is also covered by a warranty of a Subcontractor, and Owner need only look to Contractor for corrective action. In addition, Contractors
warranties shall not be restricted in any manner by any warranty of a Subcontractor, and the refusal of a Subcontractor to provide or honor a warranty or to correct defective, deficient or nonconforming Work shall not excuse Contractor from its
liability on its warranties to Owner. Contractor shall have no responsibility to perform any warranty Work with respect to Owner Equipment unless any Defect with respect to such Owner Equipment is attributable to Contractors failure to comply
with the requirements set forth in Section 3.1(a).

13.6 Title Warranty. Contractor warrants that it shall provide to, and,
effective as of the applicable date set forth in Section 22.1, hereby assigns and transfers to, Owner good, marketable and exclusive title to the paid-up Equipment, free and clear of all Liens; provided, however, that
Contractor shall not be required to assign and transfer to Owner good, marketable and exclusive title to certain intellectual property to be licensed to Owner as provided in Article 19. Contractor represents and warrants that it has the right
to grant the license rights granted by Contractor herein. In the event of any nonconformity with or breach of this Section, Contractor shall, at its own expense, promptly, and in any event within thirty (30) Days thereof, remove any Lien on any
of such Equipment or otherwise provide Owner good, marketable and exclusive title to such Equipment, free and clear of all Liens, or, as the case may be, provide Owner the license rights purported to be granted by Contractor herein; provided,
that, if Contractor is unable within such thirty (30) Day period to remove such Lien, Contractor may post a bond in an amount (and otherwise in form and substance) reasonably acceptable to Owner so long as Contractor continues to use all
commercially reasonable efforts to remove such Lien as promptly as practicable. This Section shall survive the expiration, cancellation or termination of this Agreement.

13.7 Intellectual Property Warranty. Contactor represents and warrants that the Services performed by Contractor or its Subcontractors, the Equipment and the Documentation, or any part of any of
the foregoing, will not infringe or constitute a misappropriation of any right of any third party, including any copyrights, mask work rights, patent rights, trademark rights, trade secret rights or confidentiality rights.

13.8 Warranty Assistance. During the Warranty Periods, Owner shall, without cost to Contractor: (a) provide Contractor reasonable working access
(subject to such restrictions and conditions as Owner may have instituted generally for its contractors) to the Site to remove, disassemble, replace and reinstall any Equipment with respect to which a Defect exists; (b) remove any material or
structures not provided or installed by Contractor; and (c) provide Contractor reasonable access to Facility personnel as are reasonably necessary to assist Contractor in the performance of its warranty obligations.

13.9 Conditions of Warranty. To the extent that Contractor shows that any failure by Contractor to meet the foregoing warranties is the result of
(a) Owners failure to maintain the Equipment furnished in a reasonable manner or in accordance with any reasonable Contractor requirements conveyed to Owner, (b) Owners failure to operate the Equipment within its rating or to
operate and maintain the Equipment in a reasonable manner consistent with equipment vendors instructions, (c) Owner subjecting the Equipment to abuse or misuse, or (d) normal wear and tear or corrosion inherent in the operation of
the Facility, then, to that extent, Contractor shall be excused for said failure.

(a) any and all Third Party Claims and all damages, liabilities,
losses, costs and expenses associated therewith (including attorneys fees and other professionals fees) for any injury of or death to persons, damage to or destruction of third party property, contamination of the environment or injury
to natural resources, whether contractual, in tort, or as a matter of strict liability or liability imposed by Law, to the extent any of the foregoing arise out of the negligent or willful or wanton acts or omissions of Contractor, any Subcontractor
or any of their respective employees, agents or third parties over which either has reasonable control during the performance of the Services, and

(b) any and all claims, demands or causes of action of every kind and character by any Person and all damages, liabilities, losses, costs and expenses associated therewith (including attorneys fees
and other professionals fees) for:

(i) any violation or alleged violation of Laws by Contractor, any
Subcontractor or any of their respective employees, agents or third parties over which either has reasonable control (unless caused by Owner, any of Owners Affiliates or subcontractors, or any of their respective employees or agents or third
parties over which any of them has control);

(ii) any action taken by Contractor, any Subcontractor or any of
their respective employees, agents or third parties over which either has reasonable control, which action results directly in Owner violating any Law; or

(iii) any prohibited assignment by Contractor of this Agreement.

14.2 Owners
Indemnity. Owner shall indemnify and hold harmless Contractor, its parents and Affiliates and their respective partners, shareholders, members, agents, employees, officers, directors, and lenders (collectively, the Contractor
Indemnitees and, together with the Owner Indemnitees, collectively the Indemnified Parties and individually an Indemnified Party) from and against:

38



---

acts or omissions of Owner or any of its employees, agents or third parties over which it has reasonable control during the performance of the Services; and

(b) any and all claims, demands or causes of action of every kind and character by any Person and all damages, liabilities, losses, costs
and expenses associated therewith (including attorneys fees and other professionals fees) for:

(i)
any violation or alleged violation of Laws by Owner, its employees or agents or third parties over which it has control (unless directly caused by Contractor, any of Contractors Affiliates, any Subcontractor, or any of their respective
employees or agents or third parties over which any of them has control);

(ii) any prohibited assignment of
this Agreement by Owner; or

(iii) any pre-existing Hazardous Materials.

14.3 Intellectual Property Indemnity. Contractor shall, at its own non-reimbursable expense, defend, indemnify and hold harmless Owner Indemnitees
against any and all damages, liabilities, losses, costs and expenses (including attorneys fees and other professionals fees) associated with any claims, suits or proceedings brought against any of the Owner Indemnitees based on an
allegation that any Services performed by Contractor or its Subcontractors, the Facility, the Documentation or the Equipment, or any part thereof, or use thereof, constitutes an infringement or misappropriation of any right of any third party,
including any copyrights, mask work rights, United States patent rights, trademark rights, trade secret rights, confidentiality rights or other property rights, if Contractor is notified promptly in writing and given authority, information, and
assistance for the defense or settlement of such claim suit or proceeding. Contractor will not be responsible for any settlement of such suit or proceeding made without its written consent. Contractor shall obtain Owners written consent, which
may be withheld in Owners sole discretion, prior to entering into any settlement of any such claim suit or proceeding that does not include a complete liability release for all Owner Indemnitees or that would prohibit or restrict use of any
part of the Facility, the Documentation or the Equipment by any Owner Indemnitees. If the use of the Facility, the Documentation or the Equipment, or any part thereof, as a result of any such claim, suit or proceeding is held to constitute
infringement, and its use by any of the Owner Indemnitees is enjoined, Contractor shall, at its option and its own non-reimbursable expense, either: (i) procure for such Owner Indemnitees the right to continue using the Facility, the
Documentation or the Equipment, or any part thereof to the full extent provided herein; (ii) replace same with substantially equivalent non-infringing Facility, Documentation or Equipment or parts thereof acceptable to Owner; or
(iii) modify same in a manner acceptable to Owner and in conformance with the functional requirements of this Agreement so it becomes non-infringing. Contractor shall flow down the requirements of this Section 14.3 and make Owner
direct beneficiary of the indemnification obligation in its subcontracts with all Major Subcontractors. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, Contractors obligations under this Section 14.3 shall not apply to the Owner
Equipment or any manuals or other documentation provided by the supplier of the Owner Equipment.

14.4 Indemnity Procedures for Third Party
Claims.

(a) In the event of a Third Party Claim with respect to which an Indemnified Party has a claim for indemnification
under this Article, then the Indemnified Party must notify the indemnifying Party thereof in writing of the existence of such Third Party Claim and must deliver copies of any



39



---

documents served on the Indemnified Party with respect to such Third Party Claim; provided, however, that any failure to notify the indemnifying Party or deliver such copies will
not relieve the indemnifying Party from any obligation hereunder unless (and then solely to the extent that) the indemnifying Party is materially prejudiced by such failure.

(b) The indemnifying Party shall have the right to conduct and control, through counsel of its own choosing, reasonably acceptable to the
Indemnified Party, any Third Party Claim; provided, however, that (i) if requested by the Indemnified Party, the indemnifying Party provides the Indemnified Party with evidence reasonably acceptable to the Indemnified Party that
the indemnifying Party will have the financial resources to defend against the Third Party Claim and fulfill its indemnification obligations hereunder, (ii) the Indemnified Party may, at its election, participate in the defense thereof at its
sole cost and expense and (iii) if (A) the indemnifying Party shall fail to defend any Third Party Claim, (B) the Parties mutually agree in writing to allow the Indemnified Party to assume the defense of such Third Party Claim and
forego any indemnity claimed under this Article, (C) in the reasonable opinion of legal counsel for the Indemnified Party, such Third Party Claim involves the potential imposition of criminal liability on the Indemnified Party, its directors,
officers, employees or agents, (D) in the reasonable opinion of legal counsel for the Indemnified Party, the Third Party Claim involves, or is likely to involve, any claim by any Government Authority or (E) in the reasonable opinion of
legal counsel for the Indemnified Party, an actual or potential conflict of interest exists where it is advisable for such Indemnified Party to be represented by separate counsel, then the Indemnified Party shall be entitled to control and assume
responsibility for the defense of such Third Party Claim, at the cost and expense of the indemnified Party. The indemnifying Party may, in any event, participate in such proceedings at its own cost and expense.

(c) The indemnifying Party, in the defense of any such litigation, other proceeding or other claim, shall have the right in its sole
discretion to settle such Third Party Claim only if (i) such settlement involves only the payment of money and execution of appropriate releases of the Indemnified Party and its Affiliates, (ii) there is no finding or admission of any
violation of Law, and (iii) the Indemnified Party or its Affiliates will have no liability with respect to such compromise or settlement. Otherwise, no such Third Party Claim shall be settled or agreed to without the prior written consent of
the Indemnified Party. The Indemnified Party and the indemnifying Party shall fully cooperate in good faith in connection with such defense and shall cause their legal counsel, accountants and affiliates to do so, and shall make available to the
other Party all relevant books, records, and information (in such Partys control) during normal business hours, and shall furnish to each other such other assistance as the other Party may reasonably require in connection with such defense,
including making employees of the Indemnified Party available to testify and assist others in testifying in any such proceedings.

Prior to beginning Work at the Site, Contractor shall obtain from each Subcontractor of every tier industry standard ACORD (or other Owner approved form)

Workers Compensation). All insurance coverage (except Professional Liability, if any) shall include a waiver of subrogation rights by the insurer against Owner.

15.4 General Insurance Requirements.

(a) The provisions of
Section 15.2 and Section 15.3 above do not modify or change any responsibility of Contractor or its Subcontractors as stated elsewhere in this Agreement. Owner assumes no responsibility for the solvency of any insurer to
settle any claim. The insurance requirements herein are separate and apart from and in no way limit Contractors Indemnity as stated in Section 14 of this Agreement. Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, the liabilities
of Contractor under this Agreement shall survive and not be terminated, reduced or otherwise limited by any expiration or termination of insurance coverages. Neither approval nor failure to disapprove insurance furnished by Contractor shall relieve
Contractor from responsibility to provide insurance as required by this Agreement. No policy shall contain an exclusion that it would not respond to cover losses for damages to any Owner pre-existing property. All policies of insurance required in
Section 15.2 and Section 15.3 above shall be endorsed or shall otherwise provide that Contractors insurance shall be primary with respect to Contractors acts or omissions and not be in excess of, or contributing
with, any insurance maintained by Owner (other than any Builders Risk as provided in this Agreement). Owner and its successors and assigns shall be named as additional insureds for their imputed liability as a result of Contractors negligent
operations hereunder, using ISO additional insured (CG 20 10) or equivalent, under all policies of liability insurance to be maintained by Contractor (except Workers Compensation Insurance and Professional Liability). The liability policies of
insurance shall be endorsed or shall otherwise include a severability of interest. The

---

policies set forth in this Article shall each contain a provision that coverages afforded under the policies will not be cancelled, renewed or materially modified unless at least *** prior
written notice via certified United States mail has been given to Contractor and Owner or to any other entities as herein or hereinafter required, at the address so provided to the insurance company. All insurance required by this Article shall be
provided by companies reasonably acceptable to Owner and that have (and shall maintain during the applicable policy period) an AM Best Rating of A- VII or higher. Certificates shall be provided to Owner on industry standard ACORD or Owner approved
form showing such coverage in full force and effect shall be delivered to Owner within *** of the Amendment Date, within *** of each policy renewal or change and from time to time thereafter, as may be requested by Owner. All policies shall include
waivers of any right of subrogation of the insurers there under against Owner and its successors and assigns using standard ISO forms or equivalent. The existence of any self-insured retentions (SIRS) over which the required policies apply must be
disclosed to and approved by Owner, such approval not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed. Contractor shall provide copies of CCIP placement and renewal policies and all endorsements to the Owner not later than *** following placement or renewal.

(b) Contractor shall comply with the conditions stipulated in each of the insurance policies. None of the insurance coverage
required hereunder shall be on claims-made forms, except Professional Liability. Coverage amounts must be fully available to any obligations under this Agreement (not eroded by any other project or agreement) and apply on an annual
basis. CCIP provisions for excluding Subcontractors must be disclosed and approved by Owner in writing prior to CCIP effective date.

(c) If any of the Project specific insurance required under this Article shall be directly or indirectly depleted by *** or more (whether due to payment of insurance proceeds, creation of a reserve or otherwise) prior to Final Completion,
Contractor shall obtain from the insurer a reinstatement option, if commercially available at a cost comparable to the original policy cost, to each such policy at least equal to the depleted amount. *** shall bear the cost of such option (including
the cost associated with the reinstatement). Contractor shall cause such insurer to send to Owner a notice of such reinstatement and a copy of the reinstated policy related thereto upon Owner exercising and payment for the reinstatement.

(d) The insurance policies required by this Article shall allow for occupancy and utilization of the Facility, the Equipment and the Site
by Owner, its Affiliates and any person reasonably permitted access thereto by Owner.

(e) During the time any Subcontractor
is engaged to perform any Service under this Agreement, Contractor shall obtain a certificate of insurance from such Subcontractor evidencing that such Subcontractor has obtained, and will maintain and keep in full force and effect (required only
for off-Site Work ***, otherwise for all Work performed by any Subcontractor), Workers Compensation in statutory amounts, Employers Liability, Commercial General Liability, Automobile Insurance and all other policies reasonably necessary

out-of-state purchases made by Contractor and its Subcontractors (including manufacturers) are shipped FOB the Facility (North Carolina) free of Sales Taxes. Owner shall reimburse Contractor for all sales and use taxes and privilege taxes paid by
Contractor and its Subcontractors (including manufacturers) upon written confirmation from Contractor that the items purchased could not reasonably be purchased free of Sales Taxes.

(b) Contractor agrees that it and its Subcontractors, suppliers, and manufacturers will clearly identify on each original invoice covering
the purchase of Equipment, the amount of sales and use tax. Should additional information and detail be required by Owner and the North Carolina Department of Revenue to verify amounts paid for purchases of Equipment under this Agreement, Contractor
and its Subcontractors, suppliers, and manufacturers shall supply such additional information and invoices in sufficient detail to verify:

(i) That such Equipment was purchased free of State sales and use taxes; or that for out-of-state purchases, the invoices indicate the amount of foreign sales and use tax separately stated and paid;

(ii) The privilege tax was accrued and remitted to the State of North Carolina for such Equipment;

(iii) The actual purchase prices of such Equipment;

(iv) The date of delivery to the Site of such Equipment;

(d) Both Parties shall provide to the other any documentation or information requested in order to submit and obtain a refund of any taxes
erroneously paid as part of this Agreement. The Parties agree that any refunds received shall belong to the Party which bore the economic burden of

incorporated into the Facility; provided, that Contractor shall be responsible for the filing of property tax returns and the payment of state and local property taxes on construction equipment, tools and material which is not incorporated
into the Facility and which is owned, used or leased by Contractor to perform the Services. Owner and Contractor acknowledge that construction equipment property tax costs are included in the leasing costs included in the Contract Price. If
Contractor owns construction equipment and leases such construction equipment to Owner, Contractor shall remain responsible for the filing and payment of all property taxes due on such construction equipment.



|27.5 | Tax Indemnification.
|---- | --------------------

(a)
Except in cases where such tax assessment is the result of the Gross Negligence or willful or wanton misconduct by Contractor, Owner shall defend, reimburse, indemnify and hold Contractor harmless for all costs and expenses incurred by Contractor as
a result of Owners formal protest of any sales and use taxes paid or assessed and property taxes paid or assessed on the Site or the Equipment, or any other similar tax, whether local, state or federal, including any litigation expenses in the
event Owner decides to protest a sales or use tax assessment. Owner shall not be responsible for any costs incurred by Contractor necessary to substantiate or verify information for any tax audit conducted in the normal course of business.

(b) Except in the cased of Gross Negligence or willful or wanton misconduct by Owner, Contractor shall defend, reimburse,
indemnify and hold Owner harmless for all costs and expenses incurred by Owner as a result of Contractors formal protest of any employment Taxes, or any sales and use taxes and property taxes paid or assessed on Contractors equipment or
tools, or of any payroll or employment compensation taxes, or Social Security taxes, or for labor-related withholding taxes, or any other similar tax, whether local, state or federal for Contractor; its Subcontractors (including manufacturers); or

Carolina Department of Environment and Natural Resources (DNHR) or other appropriate Government Authority to qualify for the above exemptions.



|28. | DISPUTE RESOLUTION

continue to participate in good faith in and be bound by the dispute resolution procedures specified in this Article.

(c)
Award; Binding Nature. The arbitrator(s) decision shall be by majority vote and shall be issued in a writing and shall be final and binding upon the Parties, and judgment may be entered on the award in any court of competent

(d) Discovery. Either Party may apply
to the arbitrators for the privilege of conducting discovery. The right to conduct discovery shall be granted by the arbitrators in their sole discretion with a view to avoiding surprise and providing reasonable access to necessary information or to

|1.0 | INTRODUCTION
|--- | ------------



|1.1 | OBJECTIVE
|--- | ---------

This Exhibit establishes conditions,
parameters and methods for Performance Testing of Buck Combined Cycle Net Electrical Output, Heat Rate and Emission guarantees established by the Agreement, corrected to the Base Performance Conditions identified in Section 7 of this Exhibit.

Buck Combined Cycle Net Electrical Output will be tested, calculated and corrected based on the fully duct-fired case steam flow. Net Heat
Rate will be tested, calculated and corrected based on the no duct firing condition with two combustion turbines operating at base load.

Additionally, Performance Verification of the Combustion Turbines, Heat Recovery Steam Generators, and Steam Turbine along with major plant equipment and systems is addressed during the Combined Cycle Performance Test.

The Contractor shall also provide testing procedures for validation of Owner furnished equipment Guarantees ***. All such tests shall also be tested in
accordance with this Exhibit and measured while simultaneously achieving Guaranteed Emission Limits.

Emission Compliance Testing, including
CEMS Certification testing, may occur prior to Substantial and Final Completion, with Guaranteed Emission Limits verified during Performance Testing either with the certifiable CEMS (defined in Section 8.3) or certified temporary test
equipment.

If tuning or other adjustments that may effect emissions occur after non-CEMS monitored emission acceptance and prior to
Substantial and/or Final Completion, the Owner may require re-testing of emission compliance of non-CEMS monitored parameters to verify that tuning has not violated emission compliance.

|1.2.2 | Non Code Testing
|----- | ----------------



| | a. | Combustion Turbine, Heat Recovery Steam Generator, and Steam Turbine Testing will be run concurrently, with the Net Plant Performance Test. Confirm the
Performance Guarantees of Owner Equipment are met, using permanently installed station instrumentation and/or instruments installed for the plant Performance Test. Per agreement with the Owners equipment Contractor this test will establish the
shortfall value if the tested and corrected values are not within the limits of uncertainty and contractual tolerances.
| | -- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | b. | Other Major Equipment Verification - Report the performance of the other major equipment listed in Section 8.1, using data collected during plant
Performance Testing using permanently installed station instrumentation and/or instruments installed for the plant Performance Test. If Performance Guarantees are not met for Plant Net Electrical Output or Plant Net Heat Rate, then concurrent
individual Equipment Verification Testing results collected during the plant Performance Testing will be evaluated to determine if further component testing, as described in section 8.1, is necessary to establish an estimate of the shortfall value,
for possible Code Testing. If Performance Guarantees are met for Plant Net Electrical Output and Plant Net Heat Rate, Equipment Verification Test reports for components tested during the Plant Performance Test shall be reported to Owner. If Owner
determines that additional testing, including Code Testing, may provide efficiency and capacity benefits, Owner may employ Contractor, with a contract change order for additional analysis and testing beyond the scope of the Target Price.

|1.4 | NET PLANT PERFORMANCE
|--- | ---------------------

The Contractors Net
Electrical Output and Net Heat Rate Performance Guarantees are based on the guaranteed performance of the Owner Equipment. Plant performance test results shall be corrected for Owner Equipment performance shortfalls that are not attributable to
Contractor responsibility. Shortfalls in the Owner supplied equipment will be verified as part of the PTP data recording, correction calculations and analysis process which will be documented in the Plant Performance Test results report.

The Guaranteed Combined Cycle Net Heat Rate is determined by the following methodology:

GNHR = (NG/((GT1+GT2 Output) + ST Output  BOP Aux  HRSG Aux - GSUL)) * (1 + EPC Margin)

Where:

NG = Natural Gas Consumed (btu/hr HHV) in Combustion Turbines based on
General Electric guarantee condition corrected to Base Performance Conditions.

GT1 & GT2 Output = Net Electrical
Output (kw) of Combustion Turbines, less generator excitation power, based on General Electric guarantee corrected to Base Performance Conditions.

ST Output = Net Electrical Output (kw) of Steam Turbine, less generator excitation power, based on General Electric predicted performance corrected to Base Performance Conditions, corresponding to the
HRSG unfired guarantee Case 10.

BOP Aux = Power consumption (kw) of Contractor supplied balance of plant equipment.

HRSG Aux = Power consumption (kW) of HRSG vendor supplied equipment.

GSUL  Losses across generator step-up transformers and auxiliary power use by generator step-up transformers.

EPC Margin = ***

The Guaranteed
Combined Cycle Net Electrical Output is determined by the following methodology:

GNEO = ((GT1+GT2 Output) + ST Output  BOP Aux 
HRSG Aux  GSUL) * (1 - EPC Margin)

Where:

GT Output = Net Electrical Output (kw) of Combustion Turbines, less generator excitation power, based on General Electric guarantee corrected to Base Performance Conditions.

ST Output = Net Electrical Output Net (kw) of Steam Turbine, less generator excitation

STATION ACTIVITIES
POTENTIALLY INTERACTING WITH THE CTCC PROJECT:

Table A4-1 provides a summary of other Station activities that may potentially impact the
CTCC Project during the implementation phase. Both the Owner and the Contractor will demonstrate cooperative efforts to minimize the impact of these activities with respect to the Contractors Site construction and commissioning activities.

SECURITY THREAT LEVELS

The
Contractor shall be aware of the Security Threat Level system that is employed by the Owner at Buck Steam Station.

SECURITY PLAN DURING
CONSTRUCTION

Attachment A-3 in Exhibit A-1 of the Agreement illustrates temporary fencing to be installed during the construction phase.
The intent is to isolate the Contractors site activities as much as possible from the day to day operations of the Station. The Contractor will be permitted to work inside the construction fence as required. The Contractor shall be held
accountable for controlling access through the Project Gates while they are being used for either employee or material movement. The Contractor shall be held accountable for closing and locking the Project Gates after each use. Project Gates mean
those gates under the control of the Contractor for the ingress and egress



---

of personnel, construction equipment or material to the Project site. Temporary relocation of the construction fencing by the Contractor is acceptable to provide access for specific construction
activities. The Contractor shall permit Station employees access into the construction areas to commission, operate, and maintain equipment as necessary.

For the purpose of continually enhancing our safety culture and aligning employee and contractor approaches, Duke Energy is making the following changes to our Contractor Fitness for Duty Program:

Violations (invalid status) *** resulting from Duke Energys random drug/alcohol testing program will result in a *** removal from Duke Energy
property. A drug violation includes a positive drug test or having two consecutive diluted test results without a valid medical explanation. An alcohol violation includes any alcohol confirmation test of *** or greater. An individual so impacted may
return to work on Duke property after the one year period and completion of the required SAP process.

A subsequent violation, at any
time, will result in a permanent banfrom Duke Energy property.

A refusal or adulteration/sample substitution or alcohol
consumption/illegal drug use during work timewill result in a permanent banfrom Duke Energy property.

Please do not hesitate to
contact *** you have any questions or concerns about this program.

Sincerely,

Duke Energy Regulated Generation

Contractor Substance Abuse Prevention and Drug Testing Policy



|I. | Objective
|-- | ---------

To provide a safe and
healthful work environment, Duke Energy is committed to maintaining drug and alcohol free work places. Therefore, all contractors and their subcontractors must adhere to the following Duke Energy  Regulated Generation, Contractor
Substance Abuse Prevention and Drug Testing Policy.

Duke Energy Regulated Generation has developed this program to provide the
following benefits:



|q |  | Set minimum standards for contractor substance abuse programs.
|- |  | --------------------------------------------------------------



|q |  | Improve construction safety performance.
|- |  | ----------------------------------------



|q |  | Provide a safe work environment for Duke Energy employees and their contractors.
|- |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------



|II. | Overview
|--- | --------

A number of existing and
proposed programs both nationally and regionally have been consulted in the development of this policy. The result is a core program, which can be supplemented if desired, but forms a common basis for establishing substance abuse programs. The
Metropolitan Indianapolis Coalition for Construction Safety (MICCS) and the Construction Owners Association of the Tri-State (COATS) programs have been determined to meet Duke Energys minimum requirements. All contractors working for Duke
Energy - Regulated Generation in the Midwest (Indiana, Ohio & Kentucky) must participate in either the MICCS or COATS Substance Abuse Prevention and Drug Testing Program. All contractors working for Duke Energy Regulated Generation in the
Carolinas (North and South Carolina) must participate in the MICCS program. (Attachment I  MICCS). (Attachment II  COATS). This includes:



|q |  | Contractors must maintain a substance abuse program consistent with the MICCS and/or COATS requirements and submit it for review and approval to verify
it meets their minimum requirements.
|- |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



|q |  | Contractors must register their employees and subcontractors with MICCS/COATS. Substance abuse testing completed as part of a contractors
substance abuse program must be submitted to MICCS/COATS to obtain employee and subcontractor registration.
|- |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



|q |  | MICCS/COATS will issue a Substance Abuse Prevention Card to all contractors and their subcontractors once registered. Contractors and subcontractors
must carry the Substance Abuse Prevention Card with them when on Duke property.
|- |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



|q |  | New contractors and their subcontractors will be allowed a grace period of *** be registered in MICCS/COATS.
|- |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



|q |  | Duke Energy will contract with a third party administrator, Midwest Toxicology Services, to assist contractors in registering with the MICCS and COATS
programs.
|- |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



---

Exceptions: Those contractors already required to participate in drug programs such as DOT, Coast Guard or
carry a CDL in relationship with work being preformed at Duke Energy (e.g. package delivery) shall be exempt from participating in MICCS/COATS provided their participation this program is up to date and can be verified.

Additionally, visitors are not required to participate in this program. Visitors are defined as persons temporarily on site for a meeting, tour, or other
non-employment activity and are typically escorted by station personnel.



|III. | Policy
|---- | ------

The use, possession,
distribution, sale, and/or manufacture of substances of abuse, alcohol, drug paraphernalia, or legal drugs being used for illegal purposes while performing work for Duke Energy and/or while on Duke property is prohibited.

The off the job use, possession, distribution, sale and/or manufacture of substances of abuse including alcohol which may adversely affect an
employees job performance and has an adverse effect on safety will not be tolerated.

Testing of contractors employees will be
conducted in accordance with the drug and alcohol testing requirements specified by MICCS and COATS programs as referenced in Section IV and Attachments I & II. Testing will be conducted under conditions of strict confidentiality and with the
utmost regard for the dignity of individual employees.

Violation of this policy is grounds for disciplinary action up to and including being
bared from Duke Energy facilities.

Any contractor performing work for Duke Energy Regulated Generation shall maintain in a substance abuse
program consistent with the MICCS and/or COATS requirements and register their employees and subcontractors in these programs. For new contractors and their subcontractors a grace period of *** is allowed for registration in MICCS/COATS.

Station managers retain the right to use their discretion for emergency work; allowing contractors on site based on business needs, without a MICCS or
COATS card.

All bid documents, as well as contract documents, will include contractor substance abuse testing requirements in accordance with
this policy. Contractors, by signing the contract agreement, will thereby certify that their employees and subcontractors comply with this substance abuse policy.



---

|IV. | Drug and Alcohol Testing Requirements
|--- | -------------------------------------

All contractors must develop, implement, publish, maintain and enforce a contractor substance abuse policy consistent with the requirements specified in MICCS and/or COATS. (Reference the specific requirements outlined in Attachments I
& II). In summary, these requirements include:



| | A. | Pre-employment Testing:
| | -- | -----------------------

Required to assure contractors and their subcontractors are substance free upon employment; are registered with MICCS/COATS; and are issued a substance abuse prevention card. The substance abuse prevention card must be available at all
times when on Duke Energy property.

For new contractors and subcontractors a *** grace period will be allowed for MICCS/COATS
registration and issuance of the substance abuse prevention card.

Annual Testing:

All contractors and subcontractors must pass at minimum an annual drug screen in order to maintain their substance abuse prevention card.

Random Testing:

In addition to requiring the performing of annual testing, Duke will conduct periodic random tests of contractors and subcontractors on site, as required, to assure a safe work place.

Reasonable Cause:

As established in the contractors substance abuse prevention program, additional testing may be conducted where there is reasonable cause to test. Duke Energy shall be notified of these
circumstances and informed of the results.

Post Incident:

Testing shall be performed after an incident/accident, unless it is determined that the incident/accident was not the result of the actions
of an employee/worker who was involved in the incident.



---

Test Failure or Refusal to Test:

Failure to pass a substance test is grounds for immediate action; disciplinary action is always conducted by the contractor, and severity may
be up to and including being barred from Duke Energy facilities. Refusal to submit to a substance test is considered positive and is grounds for disciplinary action up to and including being barred from Duke Energy facilities until a valid Substance
Abuse Prevention card can be provided.

Part 1. Introduction

1.1 Purpose

The use of alcohol and other drugs leads to unsafe working conditions for
workers, since the impaired worker is a potential hazard to himself and to those working with him. The purpose of this document is to outline a substance abuse program which establishes and maintains a safe and healthy work environment, free from
drugs and alcohol, in Central Indiana. Although this document provides essential information, it cannot address all situations that may arise. Therefore, it is recommended that MICCS owners implement, publish, maintain, and enforce a contractor
substance abuse policy which includes prohibiting the unlawful use, possession, consumption, manufacture, distribution, and sale of controlled substances in the work place that meets or exceeds the guidelines presented in this document. All bid and
contract documents should contain and adhere to the same stringent guidelines.

1.2 Benefits

MICCS has developed this program to provide the following benefits to the local construction industry:

Minimize the duplication of effort created by multiple substance abuse programs that would be necessary were it not for this industry-wide program.

Establish minimum standards for substance abuse programs for contractors and building trade unions.

Assist owners and contractors in developing substance abuse policies that result in increased safety for all on-site workers.

1.3 MICCS ID Card and Database Protocol

Test results from all MICCS required testing will be entered into the MICCS database. The employees annual test date is automatically updated with any negative drug result entry.

A MICCS ID Card will be issued to employees with a negative test result.

A new card will not be issued each time a test is taken. A new card will be issued as needed to update an employees photo and/or replace a worn unreadable card.

A MICCS ID Card displays the employees photo, name, and a computer generated identification number. A card cannot be issued without a photo.

The MICCS ID Card is the property of MICCS. Employers are to return invalid cards to MICCS.

Part 4. Tests: Procedures and Supporting Information

4.1 Reasons for Testing

Contractors are required
to send all drug test results, regardless of the reason for testing, to MICCS to be entered in the MICCS database. The types of testing, associated information, guidelines, and time constraints, if applicable, as required by MICCS are shown below in
alphabetical order.

4.1.1 Annual/Pre-employment Test Each onsite employee is to participate in annual testing, or provide documentation of
having been tested within the past 12 months. The latest test date will become the employees new annual test date for participation in the MICCS program. An employer is prohibited from giving any more than 14 days notice of testing to an
employee. Employers are responsible for notifying employees when their annual test is due.

4.1.2 Follow-up Test Follow-up testing is required
after an employee has taken a return to duty test. The number of follow-up tests will be set by the SAP. A minimum of three is required. The test results must be negative. The employee will be notified by telephone or letter to report for testing
the day after receiving notification. If the employee fails to complete follow-up testing, their MICCS ID Card will be marked non-compliant in the MICCS database until the employee reports for the follow-up test. Even though failure to complete the
test may be due to the fact that the employee was laid off or out of the local area (i.e., for vacation), the employee is responsible to contact the third party administrator as soon as possible upon notification of receipt after the fact. The
length of time that was designated by the SAP to complete their follow-up tests will be extended by the length of time they are non-compliant for not reporting for the test. The employee is responsible for payment.

4.1.3 Post Accident Test This test is required: When the employee is involved in any accident, incident, or event caused directly or indirectly by the
employee. Results in treatment by a health care provider, or Results in damage to property. Including any serious near-miss incident The employee is to proceed directly for testing, or as soon as possible, and before the employee returns to the job
site. It is the contractor/subcontractors responsibility to see that testing is done within the time frame described above. The employee shall be tested for both drugs and alcohol.

4.1.4 Probable Cause/Reasonable Suspicion Test This test is required at the time of observable probable cause circumstances based on objective evidence about the employees conduct in the workplace
that would cause a reasonable person to believe that the employee is demonstrating signs of impairment due to alcohol or other drugs. Examples of objective evidence include an



---

employee showing signs of impairment such as, difficulty in maintaining balance, slurred speech, or erratic behavior, etc.

Revision Date: July 24, 2007 Revision 2.0 Page-8 of 21

These observations must be documented and a copy provided to the employee. Only supervisors who have had training on determining reasonable suspicion are qualified to require a reasonable suspicion test.

4.1.5 Random Test MICCS owners are required to have contractor employees working on their premises submit to immediate random drug and
alcohol tests. It is the owners responsibility to see that their selection is truly random without discrimination or arbitrary selection. MICCS owner random testing is to be an unannounced, unscheduled drug and alcohol test. Upon notification,
the employee must report immediately to the testing facility. Owners shall give notification of testing to the employee before the end of a shift to take the possibility of a 2 hour wait into consideration.

4.1.6 Returning to Duty Test After a positive test result, in order for an employee to return to work, the employee is required to take a return to duty
test. The test result must be negative. The employee is responsible for payment.

4.2 Drug Testing Procedures

4.2.1 Specimen Collection Specimen collection will be conducted in accordance with 49 CFR Part 40 Procedures for Transportation Workplace Drug and
Alcohol Testing Programs, and applicable state and federal law. Testing must be performed by a DHHS-approved laboratory. MICCS does not follow the complete regulatory testing requirements of the DOT, only the general guidelines. The MICCS
procedures are designed to:



|¡ |  | ensure the security and integrity of the specimen according to accepted federal DOT chain-of-custody guidelines.
|- |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



|¡ |  | make every reasonable effort to maintain the dignity of anyone submitting a specimen for this program. If an employee is unable to provide a specimen
at the time of testing, the employee could be required to wait up to two hours without leaving the test facility. Failure to remain and complete the test is the same as a refusal to test with the same sanctions as a positive test result. Make sure
that notification of random testing is given in ample time before the end of a shift. Types of specimens: The employee will provide a urine specimen for the drug test. In the event that an employee is physically unable to produce a proper urine
sample, a test may be done by a different method, such as hair, saliva, etc., and must be approved by the third party administrator or the MICCS substance abuse committee. The employee must present written documentation (see Appendix C) from a
medical doctor that supports his inability to provide a urine specimen to the MRO. The employee or company must contact the third party administrator for instructions on how to test using an alternate method. A photo ID must be presented at the time
of collection to verify the employees identity. The employee will be asked to empty all pockets and display the contents to the collector. The employee will have up to two hours to provide a specimen. If the employee leaves before the two
hours having not provided a specimen, this test will be processed the same as a refusal to test. The employee will be afforded privacy to provide the specimen unless The collector observes evidence of an employees attempt to tamper with a
specimen, or The temperature range of the original specimen was out of normal range, or

It appears that the specimen was tampered with, or The specimen was determined invalid by the laboratory Upon completion of testing the employee will be
given a copy of the Custody and Control Form (CCF).

4.2.2 Laboratory Testing Procedures

All substance analysis will be done in SAMHSA laboratories certified by DHHS. Laboratory procedures will include: Initial screen on each specimen. In the
event that the initial test is positive a confirmation test will automatically be performed using the GCMS method. A test is considered positive if the detected level of the drug is at or above the cutoff level shown in Appendix A. MICCS recommends
that no adverse action or discipline be taken against any worker or applicant for employment on the basis of any positive test that has not been confirmed. Validity testing is required for each specimen. Each specimen is measured for creatinine
level, specific gravity, and pH to determine if any of the following occurred: Adulterants or foreign substance were added to the urine, The specimen was substituted, or The urine was diluted. The laboratory will report all results to the MRO. The
MRO will make a final determination of the verified results. The results will be reported to the designated employee representative.

4.2.3
MRO Procedures

All drug testing shall come under the control and supervision of a physician with confidentiality protected in accordance with
state law and the AMA Code of Ethical Conduct for Physicians Providing Occupational Medical Services or the Medical Review Officer Manual developed by the National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA). All testing results shall be verified by
an MRO. The MRO provides a medical review on all test results issued by the laboratory as follows: If the laboratory result is negative, the review is completed and a negative result is mailed. If the laboratory result is positive, adulterated,
substituted, or invalid, the MRO will: Make one attempt to contact the donor by telephone to inform him of the results and complete an interview to determine whether a legitimate medical explanation exists for the result reported by the laboratory.
If the MRO left a message, but did not talk to the employee by 10:00 AM of the following workday, the MRO will call the employer to report the results. In any case, the employee always has the opportunity to discuss the test results with the MRO. If
the laboratory reports an invalid result to the MRO, the MRO will contact the employee and ask if the employee may have taken any medication that may interfere with some immunoassay tests. If the employee provides an acceptable explanation, the test
will be canceled and no further testing will be required unless a negative result is required to obtain a valid MICCS ID Card. If the employee is unable to provide an acceptable explanation and denies having adulterated the specimen, the test will
be canceled, and a second collection must take place immediately under direct observation

4.2.4 Specimen Retest Protocol When the MRO has
informed the employee of a verified positive drug test or refusal to test because of adulteration or substitution, the employee/worker has 72 hours from the time of notification to request a retest of the specimen at a
different SAMHSA laboratory. The employee may make the request verbally or in writing and make arrangements for payment with the MRO service, as the cost of the test is the responsibility of the employee. If the result of the retest is different
from the original result, the test will be cancelled, and a recollection will be needed.

4.3 Alcohol Testing Procedures

Alcohol testing is required for probable cause, post accident/incident, and for immediate random testing situations. Tests for alcohol shall be performed using the breath or blood to determine a Blood
Alcohol Content (BAC). If possible, a breathalyzer type instrument conforming to DOT standards should be used. If not available, then a blood sample may be used. If blood testing is necessary, the contractor/owner is responsible to provide a
documented reason as to the reasons why a breath test could not be performed (see Appendix D). Failure to provide a sufficient breath sample to complete a breath test or refusing to provide a blood sample will be considered a refusal to
test and have the same consequences as a positive test. All alcohol test results with a confirmed BAC test level of .04 or higher will be considered positive and will require the employee to be removed from the owners property
immediately. This result will also invalidate the employees MICCS ID Card. In order for the employee to become eligible for a MICCS ID Card again, the employee will have to complete the required program of rehabilitation outlined in this
document. All alcohol test results with a confirmed BAC test level of .020 through .039 will require the employee to be removed from the owners property for 24 hours or until the employees next scheduled work time, whichever is longer.
Any initial test that indicates a BAC level of .02 or greater must be confirmed by an Evidential Breath Testing Device (EBT) operated by the Breath Alcohol Technician (BAT). The confirmation test will be performed no sooner than 15 minutes and no
later than 30 minutes following the completion of the initial test in accordance with current DOT guidelines.

4.4 Test results

4.4.1 Adulterated Test If a test was tampered with by the substitution or addition of other ingredients, the test result will be processed the same as a
positive test result. When a recollection is required, i.e., due to adulteration or temperature, etc., the recollection will be observed according to DOT procedures.

4.4.2 Diluted Test A test result that produces a diluted specimen requires a retest. Refer to Appendix B for detailed instructions on how to process a diluted specimen. If the retest also produces a
diluted specimen, it will carry the same consequences as a positive test result unless a valid medical reason exists.

4.4.3 Negative Test
Result A drug result is considered negative if:



|¡ |  | the laboratory finds no drug metabolite levels over the confirmed cutoff values, or
|- |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------



|¡ |  | the screen test and confirmation test indicated the presence of a legal or illegal substance(s) in excess of the limits but the donor (employee) had a
valid medical reason for the substance being detected in the specimen. An alcohol result is considered negative if the BAC is below 0.02. The employees MICCS ID Card will be updated in the MICCS database.

4.4.4 Positive Alcohol Test

A positive alcohol
test occurs if the breathalyzer test, or its equivalent test, indicates the presence of alcohol that meets or exceeds the cut-off limits of the DOT and the Commercial Drivers License (CDL) as shown in this document.

4.4.5 Positive Drug Test Result A result is considered positive if the presence of the drug meets or exceeds both the screening and confirmation levels
listed in Appendix A. The test must be verified by the MRO. The MRO must determine that the test results are not from the use of



---

prescription or over the counter medications, food, or any reason other than the illegal use of unlawful substances or controlled substances.

4.4.6 Refusal to Test

Refusal to submit to a test
will carry the same consequences as a positive test. A refusal to test occurs if an employee: Adulterated, substituted, or refused to provide a urine specimen Failed to appear for testing within a reasonable period of time Failed to remain at the
testing site until the testing process was completed Failed to provide a sufficient amount of urine within 2 hours without a medical reason and/or failed to undergo an MRO directed medical evaluation for such a reason Failed to cooperate with any
part of the testing process, which includes the use of abusive/threatening language or behavior Disrupted the testing process

4.5 Sanctions
and Consequences for Failing a Test

MICCS requires employees, who test positive (including a refusal to test), to surrender their MICCS ID
Card. The MICCS employer is required to refer employees with positive test results to a SAP for evaluation and treatment. The MICCS website has a listing of SAPs located in the Indianapolis area who support and are knowledgable about the MICCS
substance abuse program requirements. The employee must start a program of rehabilitation prior to returning to a MICCS owners site, and must continue and complete the rehabilitation in order to be eligible to work on a MICCS site. The
rehabilitation must include the following steps:

1. The employee must arrange for an evaluation with a Substance Abuse Professional (SAP).

2. The SAP evaluation must specify that the employee: Must attend education classes and/or treatment. Must perform the actions recommended by
the SAP or assigned rehabilitation specialists. Is subject to random follow-up testing not less than 3 times within the next 12 month from the employees return to work test. In cases where the employee was unable to complete the follow-up test
due to being laid off or out of town, etc., the length of time that was designated by the SAP to complete their follow-up test will be extended by the length of time the employee was not available for testing. Will not be allowed to take another
MICCS drug test for at least 14 days from the date of the first positive test.

3. The employee is required to submit a letter from the SAP to
MICCS concerning their fitness for return to work including that the employee is eligible for a return to duty test.

4. The employee must
take a return to duty test with negative results. These results must be submitted to MICCS for MICCS database entry.

5. The employee must actively
complete any ongoing rehabilitation and follow-up testing required by the SAP to keep the MICCS ID Card valid.

6. Arrangements for all costs
are the responsibility of the employee.

7. If an employee tests positive 3 times within a 12 month period, the employee will not be eligible
to retest or obtain an MICCS ID Card for a period of one year and will not be permitted to work on MICCS owner property during that period.

8. Failure to comply with any of the above sanctions shall result in the employee surrendering their MICCS ID Card. The status of the employees card will be changed to not available in the MICCS database.

9. The result of a person using a counterfeit drug card will be the same as a positive drug test.

Part 6. Auditing Information

The owner reserves
the right, under conditions of strict confidentiality, to inspect the employers substance abuse testing program records within 24 hours of the owners notification of intent to audit. Owners are required to audit the validity of on-site
employees at the time of entry to the job site and may audit them at any time thereafter. (See www.constructionsafesite.org).

MICCS employers
are required to check the validity of all MICCS ID Cards through Construction Safesite© (www.constructionsafesite.org) upon hire and/or job site entry. Construction Safesite© will state that an employees MICCS ID card is either
available, not available, or no record with that ID. Any problems and/or questions about a card status will be addressed by the third party administrator who holds the employees testing record. Third party
administrators have the ability to make appropriate updates to the employees testing record so that his/her status is changed at Construction Safesite©.

Part 7. Contractor/employer responsibilities

Contractors employees working on or visiting a
participating owners job site, including workers, new hires, replacements, and supervisory personnel, are subject to annual testing, testing for probable cause/reasonable suspicion, post-accident/incident testing, random testing and return to
duty/follow up testing as a condition of contract between the contractor and the owner. The contractor shall comply with owner requirements, when the owner requirements are more stringent than the contractors. The contractor should provide
training to employees, including new hires, to help them understand the contractors substance abuse testing policy, the effects of substance abuse on personal health and the work environment. Recognizing the behaviors common to substance abuse
and the procedures for conducting substance abuse testing should also be included as a part of this training for supervisor personnel who could be required to initiate a reasonable suspicion/probable cause test. Contractors are required to maintain
a record keeping system that would allow an owner or another contractor with whom the contractor has entered into agreement, to effectively conduct a compliance audit.

To protect everyones legal interest contractors should obtain a written consent from each employee that allows the release of otherwise confidential testing information to an owner.

APPENDIX A: Testing Panel



---

Drugs of abuse are tested in a routine SAMHSA 5-panel screen. The MICCS Substance Abuse Program uses the
drug screen components and cut-off levels listed below. In addition to these levels and substances, the creatinine level and specific gravity of the specimen will be measured. If the creatinine level is less than 20 ml/dl and the specific gravity is
less than 1.003, the sample will be considered dilute and another collection will be required. The second sample will be collected the morning after notification of a diluted specimen. Adulterated specimens will be processed the same as a positive
test. The minimum requirement for a positive test result for alcohol will be a BAC of 0.04% w/vol., a level consistent with the DOT and CDL guidelines. New drugs, preliminary cut off and confirmation levels may be modified periodically in order to
parallel the DOT and CDL guidelines. The MICCS Substance Abuse Program does not follow the complete regulatory testing requirements of the DOT, only the general guidelines. Type Preliminary Cut-off Levels (ng/ml) Confirmation Levels

APPENDIX B: Diluted Specimen Processing

Instructions for Diluted Specimen Retest

A diluted specimen result requires a retest. If this is a second diluted result without a
medical reason, it will be processed the same as a positive test result. The MICCS database manager will report the dilute result to the employers representative. The employer must provide specific instructions on fluid intake (see below) to
the employee prior to retesting to prevent another diluted specimen. The collection for another test must be done the morning after the employee has been notified. The employee may provide reasons for not being able to test which can be approved by
the database manager. The database manager may reject the explanation. If the employee disputes the decision of the database manager, the employee can contact the MICCS office to submit a plea to the Substance Abuse Committee to consider further.

Employee Instruction Prior to Retesting



---

Here are instructions for the employee to be followed prior to retesting: Consume no fluids after 9:00 PM
the night before the test. Limit fluid intake to a minimum the day of the test. The supervisor will inform the employee of the test time and location. It is the employees responsibility to monitor intake of fluids to prevent another dilute
specimen.

If the employee has a medical condition that will cause a dilute specimen, the employees physician must provide medical
information in writing to the MRO for evaluation. After reviewing the submitted information, the MRO will issue a final report to the employer.

APPENDIX C: Evaluation Form for Inability to Provide an Adequate Urine Specimen

Purpose of Form: This physician referral form is to
be used for an individual who was unable to provide a sufficient urine specimen within the time allowance stated in the MICCS Substance Abuse Policy. The MICCS policy states that a refusal to test will be issued if an individual is
required to take a MICCS drug test and is unable to provide a sufficient specimen within the required time, unless the individual can provide a valid medical explanation. This form provides information to the employee, employer and the evaluation
physician on the steps to be followed for the evaluation. This form should be filled out and given to the physician who will be doing the medical evaluation. The MICCS substance abuse program will follow the same general protocol used by DOT for
handling these types of evaluation. The specific DOT protocol taken from 49 CFR Part 40.193 is summarized below and will be used as a guide for MICCS evaluations. Background Information from 49 CFR Part 40.193: When the collector informs the
designated employee representative that an employee has not provided a sufficient amount of urine, they must, after consulting with the MRO (Medical Review Officer), direct the employee to obtain, within five working days, an evaluation from a
licensed physician, acceptable to the MRO, who has expertise in the medical issues raised by the employees failure to provide a sufficient specimen. The referral physician must recommend that the MRO make one of the following determinations:

(1) A medical condition has, or with a high degree of probability, could have, precluded the employee from providing an adequate amount of
urine.

(2) There is not an adequate basis for determining that a medical condition has, or with a high degree of probability, could have,
precluded the employee from providing an adequate amount of urine. (For the purposes of this paragraph, a medical condition includes an ascertainable physiological condition (e.g., a urinary system dysfunction) or a documented pre-existing
psychological disorder, but does not include unsupported assertions of situational anxiety or dehydration.)

After the referral
physician completes the evaluation, they must provide a written statement of their recommendations and the basis for them to the MRO. Do not include in this statement detailed information on the employees medical condition beyond what is
necessary to explain your conclusion. Employee/Employer information:

1. Employee must have an evaluation done by a physician as soon as
possible. The employee must present this form to the evaluating physician The evaluation should be done within five working days or else the MRO will be required to issue a refusal to test. Time extensions beyond the five working days must be
approved by the MRO.

2. Employee should sign this consent allowing the physician to release their findings to you and the MRO.



---

3. Failure to provide an acceptable statement from a physician will result in a refusal to test, which
carries the same consequences as a positive test result.

APPENDIX D: Documentation When a Breath Test Cannot Be Conducted

MICCS requires a breath alcohol test for qualifying post-accident
situations and reasonable suspicion. MICCS has patterned their alcohol testing requirements after the regulatory testing requirements of DOT (Department of Transportation). DOT does not allow the use of blood for alcohol tests except in a few rare
circumstances. The FMCSA (Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration) division of DOT does allow employers to accept the results of breath or blood tests conducted by Federal, State, or local officials having independent authority in post-accident
situations as long as the results of the tests can be obtained by the employer. The MICCS programs policy will allow alcohol testing done by breath or blood. However, breath testing is the preferred method. Blood testing is only authorized
when a breath test is impossible to obtain. The employer is responsible to provide a documented reason to the third party administrator as to why this alternative method (blood testing) was used. The form below can be used for such documentation and
should be forwarded to the third party administrator.

APPENDIX E: Guidelines for Post-accident
Testing

MICCS policy requirement for Post-Accident Testing: A substance abuse drug and alcohol test of an onsite contractor employee is
required when they are involved in any accident/incident or event, caused by them either directly or indirectly, that results in treatment by a health care provider, or that results in damage to property, including any serious near-miss incident.
The employee should proceed directly for testing or as soon as possible. Recommended Steps for Post-Accident Testing:

1. Contractors are
responsible to insure that a drug and alcohol test is completed for any accident or incident as defined above.

2. Needed medical treatment
will take precedence over completing a drug and alcohol test. However, a drug and alcohol test should be done as soon as possible. The alcohol test should be administered within 2-hours of the accident/incident. If there is a delay of more than
2-hours, an explanation of why the testing was delayed or couldnt be completed should be documented.

3. The contractor must insure that
the facility who will be doing the post-accident test meets the following requirements.

a. Drug test requirement:

i. Use of a standard custody and control form

ii. Testing of specimen by a SAMHSA certified laboratory using the drug panel cut-off level set by MICCS

iii. Test result reviewed
by a certified MRO (Medical Review Officer)

b. Alcohol Test requirements:

i. A breath test should always be administered unless breath testing is not an option.

ii A
breath test should be done as soon as possible (within 2 hours). If it cant be completed within 8 hours, testing should cease and documentation explaining the inability to complete testing within 8 hours should be forwarded to the third party
administrator. iii The breath test should be administered by a certified BAT (Breath Alcohol Technician) using a breath testing device that meets the same requirement as DOT. iv If breath testing is not available, a blood draw may be used.

4. The results of all post-accident tests are required to be reported to the third party database administrator as soon as possible following
any post-accident testing so the results may be entered into the database.

5. If any post-accident test result is positive the contractor
must immediately remove the employee from the MICCS owner site and follow their company policys discipline for testing positive. Any positive test will render the employees MICCS card invalid.
