			1.    Chugach is a participant in the Bradley Lake Hydroelectric Project (Bradley Lake). Bradley Lake was built and financed by the Alaska Energy Authority (AEA) through State of Alaska grants and $166,000,000 of revenue bonds. Chugach and other participating utilities have entered into take-or-pay power sales agreements under which shares of the project capacity have been purchased and the participants have agreed to pay a like percentage of annual costs of the project (including ownership, operation and maintenance costs, debt service costs, and amounts required to maintain established reserves). Chugach has a 30.4% share of the project's capacity. The Battle Creek Diversion Project is a project to increase water available for generation, increasing annual energy output. Chugach currently is entitled to 39.38% of the additional energy produced.
		

		
			2.    Chugach is a joint owner in the Eklutna Hydroelectric Project which is located on federal land pursuant to a United States Bureau of Land Management right-of-way grant issued in October of 1997. The facility is jointly owned by Chugach (30%), Matanuska Electric Association, Inc. (MEA) (17%) and Anchorage Municipal Light & Power (AML&P) (53%). The facility is operated by Chugach and maintained jointly by Chugach and AML&P. Chugach owns rights to 11.7 MW of capacity.
		

		
			3.    The Southcentral Power Project (SPP) is a natural gas-fired generation plant on land owned by Chugach near its Anchorage headquarters that began commercial operation on February 1, 2013. Chugach owns and takes approximately 70% of the plant's output and AML&P owns and takes the remaining 30%. Chugach proportionately accounts for its ownership in SPP.
		

		
			4.    Chugach has a working interest in the Beluga River Unit (BRU), an established natural gas field located on the western side of Cook Inlet, approximately 35 miles from Anchorage. The BRU is jointly owned by Hilcorp (33.3%), AML&P (56.7%) and Chugach (10.0%)

		ANNEX A
		

		
			﻿
		

		
			Section 2.12
		

		
			﻿
		

		
			Section 2.12    Alternate Rate of Interest.  If prior to the commencement of the Interest Period for any LIBO Borrowing:
		

		
			(a)  the Administrative Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error) that:
		

		
			﻿
		

		
			(i)  Dollar deposits are not being offered to banks in the London interbank eurodollar market for the applicable amount and Interest Period of such LIBO Borrowing, or 
		

		
			﻿
		

		
			(ii)  adequate and reasonable means do not exist for determining the Adjusted LIBO Rate for such Interest Period with respect to a proposed LIBO Loan or in connection with an existing or proposed ABR Loan; or
		

		
			﻿
		

		
			(b)  the Administrative Agent is advised by the Required Lenders that the Adjusted LIBO Rate for such Interest Period will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders of making or maintaining their respective Loans included in such Borrowing for such Interest Period; 
		

		
			﻿
		

		
			then the Administrative Agent shall give notice thereof to the Borrower and the Lenders by telephone, facsimile or electronic communication as promptly as practicable thereafter and, until the Administrative Agent notifies the Borrower and the Lenders that the circumstances giving rise to such notice no longer exist, (A) any Interest Election Request that requests the conversion of any Revolving Borrowing to, or the continuation of any Revolving Borrowing as, a LIBO Borrowing shall be ineffective and such Revolving Borrowing (unless prepaid) shall be continued as, or converted to, a Revolving ABR Borrowing, and (B) if any Borrowing Request requests a LIBO Borrowing, such Borrowing shall be made as a Revolving ABR Borrowing.
		

		
			﻿
		

		
			Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Administrative Agent has made the determination (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error) that (x) the circumstances set forth in clause (a) above have arisen (including because the LIBOR Screen Rate is not available or published on a current basis) and such circumstances are unlikely to be temporary or (y) the circumstances set forth in clause (a) above have not arisen, but the supervisor for the administrator of the LIBOR Screen Rate or a Governmental Authority having jurisdiction over the Administrative Agent has made a public statement identifying a specific date after which the LIBOR Screen Rate shall no longer be used for determining interest rates for loans, then the Administrative Agent and the Borrower shall endeavor to establish an alternative interest rate that gives due consideration to the then prevailing market convention for determining a rate of interest for syndicated loans denominated in dollars in the United States at such time, and the Administrative Agent and the Borrower shall enter into an amendment to this Agreement to reflect such alternate rate of interest and such other related changes to this
		

		

		

		 


		

			 

		




 


		

			 

		




		 Agreement as may be applicable (which amendment shall not, for the avoidance of doubt, reduce the Applicable Margin); provided that if such alternate rate of interest shall be less than zero, such rate shall be deemed to be zero for all purposes of this Agreement.  Such amendment shall become effective without any further action or consent of any other party to this Agreement so long as the Administrative Agent shall not have received, within five Business Days of the date a copy of such amendment is provided to the Lenders, a written notice from the Required Lenders stating that the Required Lenders object to such amendment.  Until an alternate rate of interest shall be determined in accordance with this clause (but, in the case of the circumstances described in clause (a)(ii) above, only to the extent the LIBOR Screen Rate for such Interest Period is not available or published at such time on a current basis), (1) any request for the conversion of any Revolving Borrowing to, or continuation of any Revolving Borrowing as, a Borrowing of LIBO Loans shall be ineffective, and such Borrowing (unless prepaid) shall be converted to, or continued as, a Borrowing of Revolving ABR Loans, and (2) if any Borrowing Request requests a Revolving Borrowing of LIBO Loans, such Borrowing shall be made as a Borrowing of Revolving ABR Loans.
		

		
			 
		


		

		

		 


		

			 

		




 


		

			 

		




		ANNEX B
		

		
			﻿
		

		
			Section 2.21
		

		
			Section 2.21    Extension of Maturity Date.
		

		
			(a)    Requests for Extension.  The Borrower may, by notice to the Administrative Agent (who shall promptly deliver a copy to each of the Lenders, the date of receipt by the Lenders of such notice, the “Notice Date”) not earlier than ninety (90) days and not later than forty-five (45) days prior to any anniversary date of the Effective Date, request that each Lender extend the Maturity Date then in effect hereunder (the “Existing Maturity Date”), and thereby the termination date of such Lender’s Commitment (the “Commitment Termination Date”), for an additional 364 days from the Existing Maturity Date (each such Lender that agrees to so extend the Commitment Termination Date and the Maturity Date applicable to its Loans, an “Extending Lender”);  provided that the Borrower may not extend the Maturity Date pursuant to this Section 2.21 more than two times.  Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, after giving effect to any such extension, the Commitment Termination Date of any Lender shall not be later than five (5) years after the applicable anniversary date.
		

		
			(b)    Lender Elections to Extend.  Each Lender, acting in its sole and individual discretion, shall, by notice to the Administrative Agent given not later than fifteen (15) days following the Notice Date, advise the Administrative Agent whether or not such Lender agrees to such extension (and each Lender that determines not to so extend the Commitment Termination Date and the Maturity Date applicable to its Loans (a “Non‐Extending Lender”) shall notify the Administrative Agent of such fact promptly after such determination (but in any event no later than fifteen (15) days following the Notice Date) and any Lender that does not so advise the Administrative Agent on or before such date shall be deemed to be a Non‐Extending Lender).  The election of any Lender to agree to such extension shall not obligate any other Lender to so agree.
		

		
			(c)    Notification by Administrative Agent.  The Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrower of each Lender’s determination under this Section 2.21 no later than the date sixteen (16) days following the Notice Date (or, if such date is not a Business Day, on the next Business Day).
		

		
			(d)    Additional Commitment Lenders.  The Borrower shall have the right on or before the Existing Maturity Date to replace each Non‐Extending Lender with, and add as “Lenders” under this Agreement in place thereof, one or more banks or other financial institutions (each, an “Additional Commitment Lender”) with the approval of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lenders and the Swingline Lender (which approvals shall not be unreasonably withheld), each of which Additional Commitment Lenders shall have entered into an agreement in form and substance satisfactory to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent pursuant to which such Additional Commitment Lender shall, effective as of a date to be agreed between the Borrower and each Additional Commitment Lender (such date to be on or prior to the Existing Maturity Date), (i) undertake a Commitment (and, if any such Additional Commitment Lender is already a Lender, its Commitment shall be in addition to such Lender’s Commitment hereunder
		

		

		

		 


		

			 

		




 


		

			 

		




		on such date) and (ii) purchase and assume the outstanding Loans of any Non-Extending Lenders being replaced by such Additional Commitment Lender (and, if any such Additional Commitment Lender is already a Lender, such purchased Loans shall be in addition to such Lender’s Loans hereunder on such date), and such Loans shall be continued hereunder in accordance with the terms hereof.  Upon completion of the actions described in this Section 2.21(d), each Additional Commitment Lender shall thereupon become a “Lender” for all purposes of this Agreement and, to the extent such Additional Commitment Lender becomes a Lender prior to the applicable Extension Effective Date (as defined below), such Additional Commitment Lender shall be an Extending Lender.
		

		
			﻿
		

		
			(e)    Minimum Extension Requirement.  If (and only if) the total of the Credit Exposure, or if none, the Commitments, of the Lenders that have agreed so to extend their Commitment Termination Date and the Maturity Date of their Loans, as applicable, shall be more than 50% of the aggregate amount of the Credit Exposure, or if none, the Commitments, in effect immediately prior to the Notice Date, then, effective as of the applicable anniversary of the Effective Date (the “Extension Effective Date”), the Maturity Date with respect to the Loans and the Commitment Termination Date of each Extending Lender and the new Commitment Termination Date and the Maturity Date of any assumed Loans of each Additional Commitment Lender shall be extended to the date falling 364 days after the Existing Maturity Date (except that, if such date is not a Business Day, such Commitment Termination Date and Maturity Date as so extended shall be the next preceding Business Day) and each Additional Commitment Lender shall thereupon become a “Lender” for all purposes of this Agreement.
		

		
			(f)    Conditions to Effectiveness of Extensions.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, the extension of the Maturity Date and the Commitment Termination Date pursuant to this Section 2.21 shall not be effective with respect to any Lender unless:
		

		
			(i)  no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing on the Extension Effective Date and after giving effect thereto;
		

		
			(ii)  the Borrower shall have delivered updated schedules, as applicable, to be attached hereto;
		

		
			(iii)  the representations and warranties of the Borrower set forth in this Agreement and in the other Loan Documents shall be true and correct on and as of (i) the date of such Extension Effective Date and after giving effect thereto, as though made on and as of such date;  provided that, the representations and warranties in Section 3.04 shall be made by reference to the most recent audited financial statements delivered pursuant to Section 5.01, and (ii) with respect to any representation or warranty expressly stated to have been made as of a specific date, as of such specific date; and
		

		
			(iv)  on or prior to the applicable Extension Effective Date, the Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent (A) resolutions of the Borrower authorizing such extension and all Authorizations (if any) required in 
		

		

		

		 


		

			 

		




 


		

			 

		




		connection with such extension, certified as being in effect as of the Extension Effective Date and the related incumbency certificate of the Borrower, (B) a favorable opinion of counsel for the Borrower as to such matters as any Lender through the Administrative Agent may reasonably request, and (C) a certificate of the Borrower stating that on and as of such Extension Effective Date, and immediately after giving effect to the extension to be effective on such date, all conditions precedent to a Credit Extension under Section 4.02 are satisfied.
		

		
			﻿
		

		
			(g)    Non-Extending Lenders.  The Commitment of any Non -Extending Lender shall terminate on the Existing Maturity Date in effect prior to giving effect to the applicable extension hereunder and, on or before such Existing Maturity Date, the Borrower shall (i) pay all outstanding principal, interest and other amounts owing to each Non-Extending Lender (or the Loans of such Non-Extending Lender shall have been purchased by an Additional Commitment Lender pursuant to Section 2.21(d)), and (ii) make such other prepayments of the Loans hereunder as shall be required in order that, after giving effect to the termination of the Commitments of, and all payments to, the Non-Extending Lenders pursuant to this sentence, the total Credit Exposures would not exceed the total Commitments.  Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this paragraph, the Borrower shall have the right, pursuant to Section 2.21(d), at any time prior to the Existing Maturity Date, to replace a Non-Extending Lender with an Additional Commitment Lender, and any such Additional Commitment Lender shall for all purposes constitute a Lender hereunder in accordance with Section 2.21(d).
