processing based on the pricing levels outlined in Section 4.2 (the "Start -Up <br />Invoice"). The District will pay such amounts within thirty (30) days of its receipt <br />of the Company's Start-up Invoice. <br />(b) Payment for Services Throughout the Operating Term. <br />(i) The Company will submit to the District an invoice on a monthly basis (the <br />"Monthly Services Fee Statement and Invoice"), applying the "Gallons per <br />Month" Tier parameter that is applicable for the volumes processed during <br />each month. The invoice will delineate (i) the total amount of Wastewater <br />treated by the Facility (by volume); and (ii) the total amount owed by the <br />District for that month based on the Pricing Levels outlined above. The <br />Services Fee pricing charged in a given month as reflected in each Services <br />Fee Statement and Invoice will be referred to herein as a "Monthly Services <br />Fee"). <br />(ii) The District will pay the Monthly Services Fee each month; payment will be <br />due within thirty (30) days of its receipt of such monthly Services Fee <br />Statement and Invoice. In any month where the District's Wastewater actual <br />volume processed by the Company is less than 547,500 GPMo, the Monthly <br />Fee will be equal to the Minimum Services Fee regardless of the volume of <br />Wastewater actually processed. <br />(c) Most Favorable Pricing Mechanism. At the conclusion of each 3 -month period <br />(each a "Calendar Quarter"), the Company will provide the most favorable <br />quarterly pricing to the District by (i) calculating the Aggregate Monthly Services <br />Fees (ii) calculating the Aggregate Quarterly Services Fees, (iii) selecting the lower <br />of the two from (i) and (ii), and (iv) submitting the month -three invoice for that <br />Calendar Quarter to reflect the most favorable pricing as determined in subsection <br />(iii). At the conclusion of each twelve month period (the "Calendar Year"), the <br />Company will also provide the District the most favorable annual pricing by <br />computing (x) the Aggregate Annual Monthly Services Fees and the Aggregate <br />Annual Quarterly Services Fees, selecting the lower of the two, and adjusting the <br />final invoice of the calendar year to reflect the most favorable annual pricing. <br />4.3 Escalation Mechanism. The annual pricing for the Services as described herein will <br />be subject to annual inflation -adjustments, per the Consumer Price Index starting at the <br />commencement of the second year of the Operating Term. This will allow the Company to <br />maintain the promised level of operations and maintenance support over the length of this <br />Agreement. As shown in Appendix F, the calculation of the One Hundred Percent (100%) rate <br />adjustment, if approved, shall be based on seventy-five percent (75%) of the change in the <br />Consumer Price Index (CPI) between the month of January in the prior year (CPl l) and the <br />month of January in the current year (CP12). The CPI shall be the South Urban Region, All <br />Items — All Urban Consumers, published by the United States Department of Labor, Department <br />of Labor Statistics (Series ID = CUUR0300SA0). If the designated index is discounted or <br />substantially altered, the Company may select another relevant price index published by the <br />United States Government or by a reputable publisher of financial and economic indices.
