EDF Renewables is ideally suited to collaborate with the Town of Southold in the development, construction,financing and operation and maintenance of a solar project on the landfill. Following review of the RFP and review of all addenda, EDFR would like to propose 3 project scenarios for the landfill—2MWac,2.5MWac, and 31VIWac—and their corresponding land lease rates . EDFR is providing three lease rates,with corresponding sizes,as we intend to bid into the PSEG FIT program with the three options to maximize potential for success in both the PSEG program and with the Town. Depending on the ultimate project size awarded by PSEG,the Town would receive the corresponding lease rate and associated tax payments as outlined in this proposal.As the ultimate lessor of the property will require a contract from PSEG to sell the power,our team believes this approach maximizes potential for success and ensuring the Town sees a project build in the near future.The Land Lease Rates will commence upon Commercial Operation,which is slated no later than December 31, 2021. When combining the lease rate and tax payments,the total economic value to the Town is significant and we hope to work in partnership to advance this exciting project. Our goal is to secure the largest project with the highest lease rate for the benefit of the Town, but recognize also that a slightly smaller project may be awarded by PSEG due to selection criteria.We are prepared to and intend to submit our bid into the PSEG FIT program immediately following award from the Town. EDFR proposes to take the project through local and state permitting following award of the land lease and PPA from PSEG and commence construction in 2021 to reach a commercial operation no later than December 31,2021. Despite the 2021 commercial operation date,our team plans to qualify the project for the 30% Federal Investment Tax Credit via allocation of'Safe Harbor' modules our firm currently owns —a distinct benefit of partnering with our team. Doing so allows our team to pass along additional value in the form of a lease and tax payment compared to some of our competitors. As a turnkey solar development and EPC firm, EDF Renewables employs a team of industry leading developers,financiers, engineers,and construction managers. Our in-house team provides a single point of contact for every 3 10 Second St. NE,Ste 400❑ Minneapolis,MN 55413 1 6940 Columbia Gateway Drive,Suite 400 ■ Columbia, MD 21046 800.374.4494 ■ www.edf-re.com *P"d%eoF 10 % renewables aspect of the project, which creates value for our customers who need reliable and timely communication as the project progresses through each stage. We have over 20 years of award-winning solar development,engineering, and construction experience and have developed and constructed over 2,000 solar projects nationwide across multiple customer segments.This includes over 30 MWs of landfill solar projects. Some notable landfill projects include a 2.8 MW landfill project for the Town of Rome, NY, an 18 MW landfill project an Annapolis MD(one of the largest solar landfill projects constructed to date and awarded the Solar Builder 2018 Silver Project of the Year), and a 2.5 MW landfill project in Vermont. Our NY specific experience is unsurpassed both on and off landfills, having constructed projects for other public entities including Ogdensburg Bridge and Port Authority and Mohawk Community College. Our extensive experience constructing solar projects on landfills should lend comfort to the Town in our ability to effectively execute on the project and do so in a way that will prevent damage to the cap and comply with DEC protocols.This includes applying for complying with any amendments required to the post-closure report and plans. Our experience within the region and fully integrated team approach makes us uniquely qualified to bring this solar project to fruition. Our team and our approach provide our clients with the following benefits: • A single point of contact and partner through the development, design,financing, construction, and operation of the solar PV plants • An industry leader in deploying cutting edge technology and technically challenging project design and construction • Broad experience in project design and interconnections across the United States using a variety of solar technologies • Additional capability to deploy complimentary solutions(e.g. battery storage)as appropriate Thank you for this opportunity and please treat the entirety of this proposal as confidential. Do not hesitate to contact our team with any questions. Our team looks forward to promptly commencing negotiation of the required contracts with Southold following notice of award and constructing this exciting project.

Battery Storage We understand that PSEG is working to deploy storage as is evidenced by their recent North Fork RFI and that if we are able to deploy storage on the Southold landfill economically,we will evaluate it in the future. Furthermore, given that adding storage to the system would decrease the allowable amount of solar capacity,we believe there will better economics and thus lease value with a solar only solution at this time. While we do not intend to deploy storage on the landfill at this team, our experience in the field is unsurpassed and are currently deploying a storage project working with NYPA in NY. EDFR has deployed systems with five (5)different battery chemistries (lead-acid, sodium nickel chloride, sodium sulfur, lithium-ion LFP, lithium-ion NMC). Based on our experience with numerous types of battery technologies,we typically choose lithium-ion for numerous reasons.We have deployed and are operating over 300MWs of lithium-ion storage projects worldwide. As a result, EDF RE is confident in our ability to perform and we stand behind the BESS systems we deploy. EDFR is a technology agnostic solutions provider that tailors'technologies, vendors, and systems layouts, and designs to each customer's unique needs in order to ensure optimal design and peak performance.As a result, EDF RE has strong relationships with a wide range of top tier suppliers and does not have a product line to promote. This allows for the flexibility to tailor solutions to the respective site's specific needs. In addition,and for the right customers/solutions, EDFR deploys its very own StorBox solution. EDFR intends to use this StorBox solution while maintaining the flexibility to provide an alternative solution should it better suit the end use case for the Town. 15 10 Second St. NE,Ste 400❑ Minneapolis,MN 55413 1 6940 Columbia Gateway Drive,Suite 400 ■ Columbia,MD 21046 800.374.4494 ■ www.edf-re.com *AP#d,,b 'ION renewables C.

EDFR DS prides itself on its high safety standards with 0 recordables. All members of our team, including Business Development staff, focus on safety, and our field team employees are full OSHA certified, with NFPA 70E certified employees located onsite. To meet our high safety targets, we employ a full risk management plan. EDFRs Risk Management plan includes: A) Health & Safety; B) Quality Assurance; C) adequate insurance coverage; and D) sufficient bonding capacity. Each component is detailed throughout this response. Our team takes construction safety very seriously and has all-encompassing Safety Program by which all employees, partners,and subcontractors must abide.The Safety Program includes multiple layers starting with corporate executive management through a project site supervisor. Highlights to the safety program are listed below: SAFETY DIRECTOR Our team includes a Safety Director who oversees all safety programs. The Safety Director's responsibilities include: • Developing written safety policies and procedures • Coordinating activities with safety committee • Informing management of proposed safety and health recommendations • Compiling and distributing safety and health information to employees • Providing safety training for employees,supervisors,and managers • Arranging for training of new employees • Conducting routine workplace safety inspections 17 10 Second St. NE,Ste 400❑ Minneapolis,MN 55413 1 6940 Columbia Gateway Drive,Suite 400 Columbia,MD 21046 800.374.4494 ■ www.edf-re.com i'`•�eDF renewables • Completing and analyzing accident investigation reports • Managing and delegating project safety plan responsibility to Project Manager and Safety Officer • Monitoring and evaluating the effectiveness of safety and health programs • Assuring compliance with government regulations • Preparing progress reports on programs for management and safety committee PROJECT MANAGER The construction Project Manager for each project also is a key member of the Safety Program. The Project Manager is responsible for: • Showing management commitment and participation • Setting goals,establish accountability, and become involved • Establish, implement, and maintain the project safety program • Develop project specific Health and Safety Plan (HASP) • Define and manage the health and safety plan responsibilities of subcontractors and vendors • Monitor and manage compliance on project sites • Require subcontractors to provide and enforce their own Health and Safety Plans PROJECT SAFETY REPRESENTATIVE A Project Safety Representative is assigned to each project. In the majority of our projects,the Project Site Supervisor also serves as the Project Safety Representative. The Project Safety Representative is responsible for: • Implementing project health and safety plan at the project site • Communicating directly with subcontractors and vendor regarding health and safety compliance • Including site specific issues into the HASP • Management of proposed safety and health recommendations • Compiling and distributing safety and health information to jobsite employees • Assuring that new jobsite employees receive safety plan orientation • Conducting routine workplace safety inspections • Completing and analyzing accident investigation reports • Monitoring and evaluating the effectiveness of safety and health programs • Assuring compliance with government regulations • Emphasizing HASP compliance in meeting with visitors,vendors,and subcontractors • Preparing progress reports for management and safety committee ACCOUNTABILITY Our team will simply not tolerate unsafe work practices or conditions. In order for a Safety Program to be effective,there must be a means developed for holding employees accountable for compliance. If an accident occurs,and if it has been determined that the accident could have been avoided,the means of holding employees accountable will be made more severe after each consecutive offense. Examples of accountability include: • First offense-Verbal warning • Second offense-Verbal and written warning becoming a part of the employee's file • Third Offense-Possible employment termination 18 10 Second St. NE,Ste 400❑ Minneapolis, MN 55413 16940 Columbia Gateway Drive,Suite 400 ■ Columbia,MD 21046 800.374.4494 ■ www.edf-re.com eDF renewables • Serious offense- May result in immediate termination The purpose of holding employees accountable is to help employees conform to company policy and work safely. It is not designed to end employment and, therefore, employees shall be given the opportunity to correct their missteps. WORKPLACE ANALYSIS An important part of project safety is identifying, reporting, and avoiding potential job site hazards both before work begins and as they are uncovered throughout the construction process. • Hazard Recognition - A survey of the workplace is performed in order to record those hazards and potential hazards which can be recognized without intensive analysis. • Accident Investigation, Reporting and Analysis - Accident investigation analysis, to identify accident causes, permits development of measures to help prevent future injuries. • Hazard Communication-Identification and labeling of hazardous chemicals; provide employee access to hazardous chemical information;training to prevent injury or illness to hazardous chemical exposure. Quality Assurance Program As part of EDFRs risk management program, our team designs and implements a quality control plan specific to each project. EDF Renewables Distributed Solutions Quality Control is guided by our belief in "doing the right things,at the right times",to ensure that: •The project offtaker's/host's identified needs and values are fully realized, •The project offtaker remains fully engaged and aware of quality management processes,throughout the project construction and commissioning, • Quality is built into the project starting with system design;we design for qualitythrough careful planning and identification of anticipated and potential quality issues, • The project is built right the first time, • Quality processes support on-time execution of the project schedule, • Preservation and delivery of supplier warranties, • There is full compliance with project permitting requirements, • There is effective management of AHJ (authorities having jurisdiction) inspections, • There is speedy resolution of project close-out deliverables and punch list items. Each project is unique, and the Quality Control Plan is therefore tailored accordingly. The nature of the site and the equipment design will dictate the focal points of inspections as well as the intensity of that focus. Quality is proactively managed by early planning and raising awareness of anticipated quality issues. Our quality program focuses on prevention, planning and delivery through attentive management throughout project design, construction and commissioning. Our project management and on-site construction management team engages our subcontractors in carrying out our quality objectives and ensures early and effective responses to quality issues as they arise. At project close-out we provide complete quality documentation and expedited resolution of any punch list items. 19 10 Second St.NE,Ste 400❑ Minneapolis, MN 55413 16940 Columbia Gateway Drive,Suite 400 ■ Columbia, MD 21046 800.374.4494 ■ www.edf-re.com +Pr4,oeDF VJ '% renewables III.
