A -2ððl./-12" DEMAND BIDDING PROGRAM AGREEMENT BETWEEN CUSTOMER AND SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA EDISON COMPANY (SCE) This Demand Bidding Program Agreement ("Agreement") is between Customer and SCE ("the Parties") and shall establish the terms and conditions for Customer electing to receive service under Schedule DBP, Demand Bidding Program. Customer shall receive service consistent with all terms and provisions of Schedule DBP and Customer's "Otherwise Applicable Rate Schedule" as applicable. This is a filed form tariff agreement authorized by the California Public Utilities Commission ("Commission"). No officer, inspector, solicitor, agent, or employee of SCE has any authority to waive, alter, or amend any part of this Agreement except as provided herein or as authorized by the Commission. This Agreement supplements the terms and conditions of Customer's electric service provided under Customer's Otherwise Applicable Rate Schedule and under SCE's Commission-approved tariffs. Customer understands and agrees to the following conditions, in accordance with Schedule DBP: 1. For the term of this Agreement, Customer shall receive service in accordance with Schedule DBP and Customer's Otherwise Applicable Rate Schedule filed with the Commission, as such schedule now exist or may hereafter be amended or superseded. If the Commission approves any modification to Schedule DBP, any such modification shall be incorporated herein and this Agreement will continue in full force and effect as to Schedule DBP as so modified, unless and until SCE and Customer execute a new agreement or unless and until SCE or Customer terminates this Agreement within thirty(30) days of such modification and SCE has had a reasonable opportunity to act on such termination. 2. Schedule DBP is in effect until modified or terminated by the Commission. Customer understands that Schedule DBP is a voluntary program whereby Customer will receive a discount, in the form of a credit on its bill, or a separate check, for Recorded Reduced Energy during a specified DBP Event for which Customer reduces its energy usage within the program guidelines. 3. Customer's Customer Specific Energy Baseline (CSEB) shall be determined in accordance with Special Condition 5 of Schedule DBP. 4. Customer's Energy Bid for each hour of a DBP Event shall be at least 100 kW, as determined in accordance Special Condition 11 of Schedule DBP. 5. Customer's associated accounts that do not meet the Maximum Demand requirements of Schedule DBP but which are located on the same or immediately adjacent Premises as one qualifying service accourll that does meet the Maximum Demand requirements, may be eligible to receive service on Schedule DBP pursuant to Special Condition NO.7 of Schedule DBP. Each associated account must individually meet the program requirements that for each hour of a DBP Event, the Customer's Energy Bid for each account shall be at least 100 kW. The bill for each account will be calculated on a stand- alone basis. The qualifying service account that meets the minimum 200 kW criteria must be designated as the primary account in Attachment A hereto, along with all qualifying sub-accounts, which may be less than 200 kW. 6. Customer may sign up for the Technical Assistance Incentive pursuant to Special Condition No. 12 of Schedule DBP. If Customer wishes to elect the Technical Assistance Incentive, Customer shall inform SCE in writing. Funds are subject to availability and other program requirements and restrictions. Customer may be eligible to participate in other specifically approved demand response programs at the same time as the DBP, although load can only be committed to one demand response program for any given hour of a curtailment event and Customer will receive payment under only one program for a given load reduction. Special Condition 14 of Schedule DBP and other applicable rate schedules provide additional details on how the various demand response programs interact to ensure against double counting of load curtailment and double recovery of incentives. Customers participating in more than one demand response program are required to inform SCE in writing of all such programs. 7. 8. SCE reserves the right to notify Customer to confirm the Customer's Energy Bid amount and clarify possible errors and to remove Customer from Schedule DBP if Customer is non-compliant with the terms and conditions of Schedule DBP or this Agreement. 14-741 (C) I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I (C)
