AVAILABLITY This Rider is available to the Customers who: (1) (2) (3) Receive service from Rate Schedules GSL or TGS; and Pay City ad valorem tax; and Receive no electric service discounts other than those specifically defined in the GSL or TGS Rate Schedules. APPLICATION This Rider is available to electric service supplied at any one location. It is for firm electric service applicable to new and existing customers as described below, over a five (5) year period. This IUder is available to the following classes of customers : (1)New Customers whose electric service represents demand not previously served by the City at any location in the City's service area in the last twelve (12) months, where such metered demand will be in excess of 1 ,000 kVA and customer load factor must be greater than the City’s electric system load factor, as estimated and mutually agreed upon by the General Manager of the City’s electric utility and the Customer. (2)Existing Customers served under Rate Schedules GSL or TGS wha increase their prior existing metered demand by 1,000 kVA and customer load factor must be greater than the City’s electric system load factor. This increase shall be verified by sub- metering (at the Customer’s expense) the additional load. If sub-metering is not possible, at the discretion of the General Manager of the City’s electric utility, the increase may be verified by comparing a three-month rolling average of the new level of demand to the prior demand averaged for corresponding months. During periods in which this verification method cannot be applied, the General Manager and the Customer may develop a mutually agreed-upon formula to estimate the base and additional demand levels. 32 In light of additional costs associated with the Economic Growth Rider and to mitigate potential risk to ratepayers, any participant in the Economic Growth Rider must be, at the time this Rider is applied for and continuing while such Rider is in effect, a Customer in good standing of all City utilities, including solid waste services. Unless legal review procedures have been invoked in good faith regarding the obligation, a Customer in good standing for the purpose of this Rider is defined as a Customer not owing any unpaid utility or solid waste debt obligation that is over forty-five (45) days past due to the City during the previous twelve (12) months.

The Program offers incentives, in the form of credits on the electric service bills of City retail customers. Cash incentives may be paid to retail customers for the installation of photovoltaic applications. In light of additional costs associated with the GreenSense Incentive Program and to mitigate potential risk to ratepayers, any participant in the GreenSense Incentive Program must be, at the time this program is applied for and continuing while such program is in effect, a Customer in good standing of all City utilities, including solid waste services. Unless legal review procedures have been invoked in good faith regarding the obligation, a Customer in good standing for the purpose of this Program is defined as a Customer not owing any unpaid utility or solid waste debt obligation that is over forty-five (45) days past due to the City during the previous twelve (12) months. Program applicants will be able to qualify for multiple incentives simultaneously, unless specified in the individual guidelines. A separate application may be necessary for each incentive. The Program will be in effect each fiscal year beginning on October 1, until the allotted funding is depleted or until cancellation of the program by the City.

NET MONTHLY RATE (1) Energy Cost Adjustment Charge $0.0515 per kWh ENERGY COST ADJUSTMENT BALANCING ACCOUNT CALCULAI'ION The ECA Balancing Account shall be calculated using the following formula: ECA Balancing Account = (Beginning ECA Account Balance) – (Projected Net Energy Cost) Where: Projected Net Energy Cost = For the next fiscal quarter, the electric utility’s projected cost of electric load purchases from ERCOT EIW all projected electric utility power/energy related costs for that same period including, but not limited to, power production (including the Denton Energy Center debt and all other costs); purchased power; applicable transmission services, losses and congestion; other ERCOT charges; renewable energy credits; and financial and/or physical power/energy trades; less all projected revenue to be received by the electric utility for power/energy related sales and/or trades. The General Manager of the City’s electric utility or his/her designee shall calculate the ECA Balancing Account monthly. In the event that the ECA Balancing Account calculated during the last month of each fiscal quarter (December, March, June, and September) is projected to be over/under collected by $5,000,000 or more during the next quarter, the General Manager or his/her designee may recommend to the PUB and City Council a revision to the ECA to maintain the City’s electric utility in a financially sound position. ENERGY COST ADJUSTMENT CALCULATION ECA = [(Projected Net Energy Cost) + (ECA Balancing Account)] / Projected kWh sales) ENERGY COST ADJUSTMENT CHARGE The Energy Cost Adjustment Charge shall be based on actual kWh consumption during the billing period.

The TCRF charge will be developed by the City for each applicable customer billing schedule herein, based on projected kWh sales for billing schedules without a demand component and on monthly peak kW for billing schedules with a demand component. TCRF rate class allocation amount = [(TCRF annual billing) x (Projected rate class kWh usage)] / (Total projected usage for all rate classes). 37 SCHEDULE DGR DISTRIBUTED GENERATION FROM RENEWABLE SOURCES RIDER (Effective 10/01/24) APPLICATION This Rider is available to retail Customers receiving electric service under a City electric rate schedule who owns and operates an on-site generating system powered by a renewable resource capable of producing power, and which is interconnected with the City’s electric system.
