1.8  Reactive Power and Primary Frequency Response

1.8.1   Power Factor Design Criteria

1.8.1.1  Synchronous Generation. The Interconnection Customer shall design its Small Generating Facility to maintain a composite power delivery at continuous rated power output at the Point of Interconnection at a power factor within the range of 0.95 leading to 0.95 lagging, unless the NYISO or the Connecting  Transmission Owner in whose Transmission District the Small Generating Facility interconnects has established different requirements that apply to all similarly situated generators in the New York Control Area or  Transmission District (as applicable) on a comparable basis, in accordance with Good Utility Practice.

1.8.1.2   Non-Synchronous  Generation.  The  Interconnection  Customer  shall
design its Small Generating Facility to maintain a composite power delivery at
continuous rated power output at the high-side of the generator substation at a
power factor within the range of 0.95 leading to 0.95 lagging, unless the NYISO or
the Connecting Transmission Owner in whose Transmission District the Small
Generating Facility interconnects has established a different power factor range that
applies toall similarly situated non-synchronous generators in the control area or
Transmission District (as applicable) on a comparable basis, in accordance with
Good Utility Practice. This power factor range standard shall be dynamic and canbe
met using, for example, power electronics designed to supply this level of reactive
capability (taking into account any limitations due to voltage level, real power
output, etc.) or fixed and switched capacitors, or a combination of the two. This
requirement shall only apply to newly interconnecting non-synchronousgenerators
that have not yet executed a Facilities Study Agreement as of September21, 2016.

6

1.8.2   The Parties understand that the Interconnection Customer shall be paid by the
 NYISO for reactive power, or voltage support service, that the Interconnection
 Customer provides from the Small Generating Facility in accordance with Rate
 Schedule 2 of the NYISO Services Tariff.

1.8.3  Primary Frequency Response. Interconnection Customer shall ensure the primary

frequency response capability of its Small Generating Facility by installing,
maintaining, and operating a functioning governor or equivalent controls. The term
“functioning governor or equivalent controls” as used herein shall mean the
required hardware and/or software that provides frequency responsive real power
control with the ability to sense changes in system frequency and autonomously
adjust the Small Generating Facility’s real power output in accordance with the
droop and deadband parameters and in the direction needed to correct frequency
deviations. Interconnection Customer is required to install a governor or equivalent
controls with the capability of operating: (1) with a maximum 5 percentdroop and
±0.036 Hz deadband; or (2) in accordance with the relevant droop, deadband, and
timely and sustained response settings from an approved Applicable Reliability
Standard providing for equivalent or more stringent parameters. The droop
characteristic shall be: (1) based on the nameplate capacity of the Small Generating
Facility, and shall be linear in the range of frequencies between 59 to 61 Hz that are
outside of the deadband parameter; or (2) based on an approved Applicable
Reliability Standard providing for an equivalent or more stringent parameter. The
deadband parameter shall be: the range of frequencies above and below nominal
(60 Hz) in which the governor or equivalent controls is not expectedto adjust the
Small Generating Facility’s real power output in response to frequencydeviations.
The deadband shall be implemented: (1) without a step to the droop curve, that is,
once the frequency deviation exceeds the deadband parameter, the expected change
in the Small Generating Facility’s real power output in response to frequency
deviations shall start from zero and then increase (for under-frequencydeviations) or
decrease (for over-frequency deviations) linearly in proportion to themagnitude of
the frequency deviation; or (2) in accordance with an approved Applicable

Reliability Standard providing for an equivalent or more stringent parameter. Interconnection Customer shall notify NYISO   that the primary frequency response capability of the Small Generating Facility has been tested andconfirmed during commissioning.  Once  Interconnection  Customer  has  synchronized the Small Generating Facility with the New York State TransmissionSystem, Interconnection Customer shall operate the Small Generating Facility consistent with the provisions specified in Articles 1.8.3.1 and 1.8.3.2 of this Agreement. The primary frequency response requirements contained herein shallapply to both synchronous and nonsynchronous Small Generating Facilities.

1.8.3.1 Governor or Equivalent Controls. Whenever the Small Generating Facility
is  operated  in  parallel  with  the  New  York  State  Transmission  System,
Interconnection Customer shall operate the Small Generating Facility with its
governor or equivalent controls in service and responsive to frequency.

7

Interconnection Customer shall: (1) in coordination with NYISO, set the deadband
parameter to: (1) a maximum of ±0.036 Hz and set the droop parameter to a
maximum of 5 percent; or (2) implement the relevant droop and deadband settings
from an approved Applicable Reliability Standard that provides for equivalent or
more stringent parameters. Interconnection Customer shall be required to provide
the status and settings of the governor and equivalent controls to NYISO and/or the
Connecting Transmission Owner upon request. If Interconnection Customer needs
to operate the Small Generating Facility with its governor or equivalent controls
not in service, Interconnection Customer shall immediately notify NYISO andthe
Connecting Transmission Owner, and provide both with the following information:

(1) the operating status of the governor or equivalent controls (i.e., whether it is
currently out of service or when it will be taken out of service); (2) thereasons for
removing the governor or equivalent controls from service; and (3) a reasonable
estimate of when the governor or equivalent controls will be returned to service.
Interconnection Customer shall make Reasonable Efforts to return its governor or
equivalent controls into service as soon as practicable. Interconnection Customer
shall make Reasonable Efforts to keep outages of the Small Generating Facility’s
governor or equivalent controls to a minimum whenever the Small Generating
Facility is operated in parallel with the New YorkState Transmission System.

1.8.3.2 Timely and Sustained Response. Interconnection Customer shall ensure
that the Small Generating Facility’s real power response to sustained frequency
deviations outside of the deadband setting is automatically provided and shall begin
immediately after frequency deviates outside of the deadband, and to the extent the
Small Generating Facility has operating capability in the direction needed to correct
the frequency deviation. Interconnection Customer shall not block or otherwise
inhibit the ability of the governor or equivalent controls to respond and shall ensure
that the response is not inhibited, except under certain operational constraints
including, but not limited to, ambient temperature limitations, physical energy
limitations, outages of mechanical equipment, or regulatory requirements. The
Small Generating Facility shall sustain the real power response at least until system
frequency returns to a value within the deadband setting of the governor or
equivalent controls. An Applicable Reliability Standard with equivalent or more
stringent requirements shall supersede the above requirements.

1.8.3.3 Exemptions. Small Generating Facilities that are regulated by the United
States Nuclear Regulatory Commission shall be exempt from Articles 1.8.3,

1.8.3.1, and 1.8.3.2 of this Agreement.   Small Generating Facilities that are behind
the meter generation that is sized-to-load (i.e., the thermal load and the generation
are near-balanced in real-time operation and the generation is primarilycontrolled
to maintain the unique thermal, chemical, or mechanical output necessary for the
operating requirements of its host facility) shall be required to install primary
frequency response capability requirements in accordance with the droop and
deadband capability requirements specified in Article 1.8.3, but shall be

8

otherwise exempt from the operating requirements in Articles 1.8.3, 1.8.3.1,

1.8.3.2, and 1.8.3.4 of this Agreement.

1.8.3.4 Electric Storage Resources. Interconnection Customer interconnecting an
electric storage resource shall establish an operating range in Attachment 5 of its
SGIA that specifies a minimum state of charge and a maximum state of charge
between which the electric storage resource will be required to provide primary
frequency response consistent with the conditions set forth in Articles 1.8.3, 1.8.3.1,

1.8.3.2, and 1.8.3.3 of this Agreement. Attachment 5 shall specify whether the
operating range is static or dynamic, and shall consider (1) the expected magnitude
of frequency deviations in the interconnection; (2) the expected duration that
system  frequency  will  remain  outside  of  the  deadband  parameter  in  the
interconnection; (3) the expected incidence of frequency deviations outside of the
deadband parameter in the interconnection; (4) the physical capabilities of the
electric storage resource; (5) operational limitations of the electric storage resources
due to manufacturer specification; and (6) any other relevant factors agreed to by
theNYISO, Connecting Transmission Owner, and Interconnection Customer. If the
operating range is dynamic, then Attachment 5 must establish how frequently the
operating range will be reevaluated and the factors that may be considered during
its reevaluation.

Interconnection Customer’s electric storage resource is required to provide timely
and sustained primary frequency response consistent with Article 1.8.3.2 of this
Agreement when it is online and dispatched to inject electricity to the New York
State Transmission System and/or receive electricity from the New York State
Transmission System. This excludes circumstances when the electric storage
resource is not dispatched to inject electricity to the New York State Transmission
System  and/or  dispatched  to  receive  electricity  from  the  New  York  State
Transmission System. If Interconnection Customer’s electric storage resource is
charging at the time of a frequency deviation outside of its deadband parameter, it
is to increase (for over-frequency deviations) or decrease (for under-frequency
deviations) the rate at which it is charging in accordance with its droop parameter.
Interconnection Customer’s electric storage resource is not required to change from
charging to discharging, or vice versa, unless the response necessitated by the droop
and deadband settings requires it to do so and it is technically capable of making
such a transition.

1.9 Capitalized Terms

Capitalized terms used herein shall have the meanings specified in the Glossary of Terms in Attachment 1 or the body of this Agreement. Capitalized terms used herein that are not so defined shall have the meanings specified in Appendix 1 of Attachment Z, Section 25.1.2 of Attachment S, or Section 30.1 of Attachment X of the ISO OATT.

and Default

7.1 Assignment

This Agreement, and each and every term and condition hereof, shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns. This Agreement may be assigned by either Party upon 15 Business Days prior written notice and opportunity to object by the other Party; provided that:

7.1.1   A Party may assign this Agreement without the consent of the other Parties to any
 affiliate of the assigning Party with an equal or greater credit rating and with the
 legal authority and operational ability to satisfy the obligations of the assigning
 Party under this Agreement, provided that the Interconnection Customer promptly
 notifies  the  NYISO  andthe  Connecting  Transmission  Owner  of  any  such
 assignment. A Party may assign this Agreement without the consent of the other
 Party in connection with the sale, merger, restructuring, or transfer of a substantial
 portion of all of its assets, including the Interconnection Facilities it owns, so long
 as the assignee in such a transaction directly assumes all rights, duties and
 obligation arising under this Agreement.

7.1.2   The Interconnection Customer shall have the right to assign this Agreement,
 without the  consent of  the  NYISO orConnecting  Transmission  Owner,  for
 collateral security purposes to aid in providing financing for the Small Generating

 Assignment shall not relieve a Party of its obligations, nor shall a Party’s
 obligations be enlarged, in whole or in part, by reason thereof. An assignee is
 responsible for meeting the same financial, credit, and insurance obligations as the
 Interconnection Customer. Where required, consent to assignment will not be
 unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed.

7.2 Limitation of Liability

Each Party’s liability to the other Party for any loss, cost, claim, injury, liability, or expense,
including reasonable attorney’s fees, relating to or arising from any act or omission in its
performance of this Agreement, shall be limited to the amount of direct damage actually incurred.

20

In no event shall either Party be liable to the other Party for any indirect, special, consequential, or punitive damages.

7.3 Indemnity

7.3.1   This provision protects each Party from liability incurred to third parties as a result
 of carrying out the provisions of this Agreement. Liability under this provision is
 exempt from the general limitations on liability found in article 7.2.

7.3.2   Each Party (the “Indemnifying Party”) shall at all times indemnify, defend, and
 hold harmless the other Party (the “ Indemnified Party”) from, any and all damages,
 losses, claims, including claims and actions relating to injury to or death of any
 person or damage to property, the alleged violation of any Environmental Law, or
 the release or threatened release of any Hazardous Substance, demand, suits,
 recoveries, costs and expenses, court costs, attorney fees, and all other obligations
 by or to third parties (any and all of these a “Loss”), arising out of or resulting from:

(i) the Indemnified Party’s performance under this Agreement on behalf of the Indemnifying Party, except in cases where the Indemnifying Party can demonstrate that the Loss of the Indemnified Party was caused by the gross negligence or intentional wrongdoing by the Indemnified Party, or (ii) the violation by the Indemnifying Party of any Environmental Law or the release by the Indemnifying Party of a Hazardous Substance.

7.3.3   If a Party is entitled to indemnification under this article as a result of a claim by a
 third  party,  and  the  Indemnifying  Party  fails,  after  notice  and  reasonable
 opportunity to proceed under this article, to assume the defense of such claim, such
 Indemnified Party may at the expense of the Indemnifying Party contest, settle or
 consent to the entry of any judgment with respect to, or pay in full, such claim.

7.3.4   If the Indemnifying Party is obligated to indemnify and hold the Indemnified Party
 harmless under this article, the amount owing to the Indemnified Party shall be the
 amount of such Indemnified Party’s actual loss, net of any insurance or other
 recovery.

7.3.5   Promptly after receipt by the Indemnified Party of any claim or notice of the
 commencement of any action or administrative or legal proceeding or investigation
 as to which the indemnity provided for in this article may apply, the Indemnified
 Party shall notify the Indemnifying Party of such fact. Any failure of or delay in
 such notification shall not affect a Party’s indemnification obligation unless such
 failure or delay is materially prejudicial to the Indemnifying Party.

21

7.4 Consequential Damages

Other than as expressly provided for in this Agreement, neither Party shall be liable under any provision of this Agreement for any losses, damages, costs or expenses for any special, indirect, incidental, consequential, or punitive damages, including but not limited to loss of profit or revenue, loss of the use of equipment, cost of capital, cost of temporary equipment or services, whether based in whole or in part in contract, in tort, including negligence, strict liability, or any other theory of liability; provided, however, that damages for which a Party may be liable to the other Party under another agreement will not be considered to be special, indirect, incidental, or consequential damages hereunder.

 disturbance, act of the public enemy, war, insurrection, riot, fire, storm or flood,
 explosion, breakage or accident to machinery or equipment, any order, regulation
 or restriction imposed by governmental, military or lawfully established civilian
 authorities, or any other cause beyond a Party’s control. A Force Majeure Event
 does not include an act of negligence or intentional wrongdoing.” For the purposesof
 this article, this definition of Force Majeure shall supersede the definitions of Force
 Majeure set out in Section 32.10.1 of the ISO OATT.

7.5.2   If a Force Majeure Event prevents a Party from fulfilling any obligations under this
 Agreement, the Party affected by the Force Majeure Event (“Affected Party”) shall
 promptly notify the other Party, either in writing or via the telephone, of the
 existence of the Force Majeure event. The notification must specify in reasonable
 detail the circumstances of the Force Majeure Event, its expected duration, and the
 steps that the Affected Party is taking to mitigate the effects of the event on its
 performance. The Affected Party shall keep the other Party informed on a
 continuing basis of developments relating to the Force Majeure Event until the
 event  ends.  The  Affected  Party  will  be  entitled  to  suspend  or  modify  its
 performance of obligations under this Agreement (other than the obligation to make
 payments) only to the extent that the effect of the Force Majeure Event cannot be
 mitigated by the use of Reasonable Efforts. The Affected Party will use Reasonable
 Efforts to resume its performance as soon as possible.

7.6 Breach and Default

7.6.1   No Breach of this Agreement shall exist where such failure to discharge an
 obligation (other than the payment of money) is the result of a Force Majeure Event
 or the result of an act or omission of the other Party. Upon a Breach, the non-
 breaching Party shall give written notice of such Breach to the Breaching Party.

22

Except as provided in article 7.6.2, the Breaching Party shall have 60 calendar days
from receipt of the Breach notice within which to cure such Breach; provided
however, if such Breach is not capable of cure within 60 calendar days, the
Breaching Party shall commence such cure within 20 calendar days after notice and
continuously and diligently complete such cure within six months from receipt of
the Breach notice; and, if cured within such time, the Breach specified in such
notice shall cease to exist.

7.6.2   If a Breach is not cured as provided in this article, or if a Breach is not capable of
 being cured within the period provided for herein, a Default shall exist and the non-
 defaulting Party shall thereafter have the right to terminate this Agreement, in
 accordance with article 3.3 hereof, by written notice to the defaulting Party at any
 time until cure occurs, and be relieved of any further obligation hereunder and,
 whether or not that Party terminate this Agreement, to recover from the defaulting
 Party all amounts due hereunder, plus all other damages and remedies to which they
 are entitled at law or in equity. The provisions of this article shall survive
 termination of this Agreement.

7.6.3   In cases where the Interconnection Customer has elected to proceed under Section

32.3.5.3 of the SGIP, if the Interconnection Request is withdrawn or deemed withdrawn pursuant to the SGIP during the term of this Agreement, this Agreement shall terminate.

23

Article 8. Insurance

8.1  The Interconnection Customer shall, at its own expense, maintain in force general liability

insurance without any exclusion for liabilities related to the interconnection undertaken
pursuant to this Agreement. The amount of such insurance shall be sufficient to insure
against all reasonably foreseeable direct liabilities given the size and nature of the
generating   equipment   being   interconnected,   the   interconnection   itself,   and   the
characteristics of the system to which the interconnection is made. Such insurance coverage
is specified in Attachment 7 to this Agreement. The Interconnection Customer shall obtain
additional insurance only if necessary as a function of owning and operating agenerating
facility. Such insurance shall be obtained from an insurance provider authorized to do
business in New York State where the interconnection is located.Certification that such
insurance is in effect shall be provided upon request of the Connecting Transmission
Owner, except that the Interconnection Customer shall show proof of insurance to the
Connecting Transmission Owner no later than ten Business Daysprior to the anticipated
commercial operation date. An Interconnection Customer of sufficient creditworthiness
may propose to self-insure for such liabilities, and such a  proposal  shall not be
unreasonably rejected.

8.2  The Connecting Transmission Owner agree to maintain general liability insurance or self-

insurance consistent with the existing commercial practice. Such insurance or selfinsurance shall not exclude the liabilities undertaken pursuant to this Agreement.

8.3  The Parties further agree to notify one another whenever an accident or incident occurs

resulting in any injuries or damages that are included within the scope of coverage of such insurance, whether or not such coverage is sought.
