ORIGINAL SHEET N0.4.087 Page 4 of 4 PART Vill BILLING (Continued) is eligible to participate in the Budget Billing Plan described below for GS -1 and GSD -1 rate billings. However, GS -1 or GSD -1 Customers that participate in the Premier Power Service Rider and/or Summary Billing will not be eligible to participate in this Budget Billing Plan. A Customer may terminate participation in the Budget Billing Plan at any time and may be terminated from the Budget Billing Plan by Duke Energy Florida, LLC if the Customer becomes subject to collection action on this service account. Once a Customer's participation in the Budget Billing Plan has terminated he/she may not rejoin the Budget Billing Plan for twelve (12) months following the date of termination. This billing plan provides for payments on an averaged monthly installment basis rather than payments on an actual monthly usage basis. Under the Budget Billing Plan, the monthly billing is determined as follows: 1. The Annual Base Amount is calculated using the most recent twelve (12) months' billings for the premise and then averaged and rounded to the nearest whole dollar (Monthly Budget Billing Amount). 2. The Monthly Budget Billing Amount is recalculated every third month using the most recent Annual Base Amount plus any deferred balances (the difference in prior billings made under the Budget Billing Plan and that of actual charges). Monthly Budget _ 12 Month Summation Deferred Billing Amount Actual or Est. Annual Base Balance 12 If the difference between the newly calculated Monthly Budget Billing Amount and the current Monthly Budget Billing Amount is greater than 10% then the Monthly Billing Amount will be re-established at the needy calculated amount (rounded to the nearest whole dollar). At the customer's option (in lieu of carrying the deferred balance forward in the recalculation of the Monthly Budget Billing Amount) any deferred balance that is outstanding at the customer's annual review may be settled either through being applied to the customer's next bill (if a credit balance) or direct payment to the Company (if a debit balance). A customer may request termination of the Budget Billing Plan at any time. The Company may terminate application of the Plan to any Customer whose balance due becomes fourteen (14) calendar days delinquent Termination of any one account for delinquency may subject all other Customer's participating accounts to termination of the plan. Upon termination of the Plan or disconnection of service, the Customer must settle the account in full. Once the Customer has terminated, he or she may not rejoin the plan for twelve (12) months.
