The Customer shall pay FPL a Contribution in Aid of Construction of $4.544.99 (the total Contribution) to cover the differential cost between an <br />underground and an overhead system This is based on the currently effective tariff filed with the Florida Public Service Commission by FPL and is <br />more particularly described on Exhibit A attached hereto. <br />2. That a credit of $1.106.00 shall be provided to the Customer for trenching, backfilling, installation of Company provided conduit and other work, as <br />shown on Exhibit B, if applicable, and approved by FPL. If such credit applies, the resulting Contribution cash payment shall be $3438.99. <br />3. The contribution and credit are subject to adjustment when FPL's tariff is revised by the Florida Public Service Commission and the Customer has <br />requested FPL to delay FPL's scheduled date of installation. Any additional costs caused by a Customer's change in the Customer's plans submitted <br />to FPL on which the contribution was based shall be paid for by the Customer. The contribution does not include the cost of conversion of any <br />existing overhead lines to underground or the relocation of any existing overhead or underground facilities to serve the property identified above. <br />4. That the Contribution provides for 120/240 volt, 1 phase (120/240 volt, single phase for URD Subdivisions) underground electrical service with <br />facilities located on private property in easements as required by FPL. The Contribution is based on employment of rapid production techniques and <br />cooperation to eliminate conflicts with other utilities. Underground service, secondary, and primary conductors are to be of standard FPL design, in <br />conduit, and with above -grade appurtenances. <br />5. That the payment of the Contribution does not waive any provisions of FPUs Electric Tariff. <br />If the property is subject to an underground ordinance, FPL shall notify the appropriate governmental agency that satisfactory arrangements have <br />been made with the Customer as specified by FPL. <br />Title to and ownership of the facilities installed as a result of this agreement shall at all times remain the property of FPL. <br />6. That good and sufficient easements, including legal descriptions and survey work to produce such easements, and mortgage subordinations required <br />by FPL for the installation and maintenance of its electric distribution facilities must be granted or obtained, and recorded, at no cost to FPL, prior to <br />trenching, installation and/or construction of FPL facilities. FPL may require mortgage subordinations when the Customer's property, on which FPL <br />will install its facilities, is mortgaged and (1) there are no provisions in the mortgage that the lien of the mortgage will be subordinate to utility <br />easements, (2) FPL's easement has not been recorded prior to the recordation of the mortgage, (3) FPL's facilities are or will be used to serve other <br />parcels of property, or (4) other circumstances exist which FPL determines would make such a subordination necessary. <br />a) The Customer shall furnish FPL a copy of the deed or other suitable document which contains a full legal description and exact name of the legal <br />owner to be used when an easement is prepared, as required by FPL. <br />b) The Customer shall furnish drawings, satisfactory to FPL, showing the location of existing and proposed structures on the Customer's <br />construction site, as required by FPL. <br />c) Should for any reason, except for the sole error of FPL, FPL's facilities not be constructed within the easement, FPL may require the Customer to <br />grant new easements and obtain any necessary mortgage subordinations to cover FPL's installed facilities, and FPL will release the existing <br />easement. Mortgage subordinations will be necessary in this context when 1) the Customer's property on which FPL will install its facilities is <br />mortgaged, 2) there are no provisions in the mortgage for subordination of the lien of the mortgage to utility easements, or 3) FPL's facilities are <br />or will be used to serve other parcels of property. <br />7. Before FPL can begin its engineering work on the underground electric distribution facilities, the Customer shall provide FPL with the following <br />a) Paving, grading, and drainage plans showing all surface and sub -surface drainage satisfactory to FPL, <br />b) A construction schedule, <br />c) An estimate of when electric service will be required, and <br />d) Copies of the Customer's final construction plans as well as other construction drawings (plot, site, sewage, electrical, etc.) requested by FPL. <br />Plats provided by the Customer must be either recorded by the circuit clerk or other recording officer or prepared and certified as meeting the <br />requirements for recording (except approval by the governing body) by a registered land surveyor. <br />8. Prior to FPL construction pursuant to this agreement, the Customer shall: <br />a) Clear the FPL easement on the Customer's property of tree stumps, all trees, and other obstructions that conflict with construction, including the <br />drainage of all flooded areas.

The easement shall be graded to within six inches of final grade with soil stabilized. <br />b) Provide property line and comer stakes, designated by a licensed surveyor, to establish a reference for locating the underground cable trench <br />route in the easement and additional reference points when required by FPL.
