LaBella has extensive experience in the development of solar PV projects on closed landfills across New York State, which is highlighted in Appendix B. 4. 1roject Proposal 4.1 Proposed Solution NRStor is proposing to install and operate a 3.45 MWdc solar PV system DC-coupled to a 12.0 MWh BESS behind a 3.00 MW inverter at the Cutchogue Landfill property owned by the Town. The largest part of the solar PV system will be located on the ground area of the capped landfill and will feature single-axis trackers to optimize energy production, while a small solar PV system will be installed on the roof of the waste collection center adjacent to the landfill. The technical characteristics of the Solution are listed in the Table 1 below, and the results of a PVWatts simulation are included in Appendix E. Table 1—Technical Characteristics of the Solution Output Solar PV Capacity 3.45 MWdc Array Type Single-Axis Tracker Single-Axis Tracker Rotation Limits +/-60° Array Azimuth 218° BESS Energy Capacity 12.0 MWh Inverter Capacity 3.00 MW ©2020 NRStor L.P.CONFIDENTIAL AND PROPRIETARY—Not to be used by anyone other than the intended recipients NRStor C&I Proposal 6 RFP for Leasing of Cutchogue Landfill Property for Development, Construction, and O&M of Renewable Energy System Including Battery Energy Storage and/or Solar PV Systems To deliver the Solution, NRStor will engage top-tier suppliers in the solar PV and energy storage industries. To procure solar modules, NRStor will engage vendors such as Canadian Solar, LG, and Panasonic. For single-axis trackers, NRStor's preferred contractor is NEXTracker, whose technology has been deployed at scale and on uneven terrain like the capped landfill area. On the battery energy storage side, NRStor will work with a top-tier supplier like Honeywell, Sungrow, or IHI Energy Storage (the "Vendor") to deliver the BESS and inverter. The BESS will be overbuilt to account for degradation of the batteries over the agreement term, and the Vendor will engage with a local electrician to perform preventative maintenance to maintain availability under an LTSA with a duration that matches the term of the lease agreement. The Solution will be managed from NRStor and Honeywell's state-of-the-art Remote Operations Centers ("ROC") using Honeywell's Experion° Elevate platform. NRStor will dispatch the Solution to earn VDER compensation, and VDER credits will be allocated to subscribers through the Community Distributed Generation("CDG") program. Subscribers may include the Town and other PSEG Long Island (the"Utility") customers. 4.2 Execution Plan NRStor will leverage its best-in-class Project Execution Team to manage the project from contract negotiation through final completion. As per the organizational chart in Appendix F, the Project Execution Team will be led by a Project Director who will be the single point of contact for the Utility, and a Vice President who will provide oversite. A Project Manager will be put in place to oversee completion of project milestones and key deliverables, and to manage the budget. Together the Project Director, Project Manager, and assigned Project Engineers will work with the Vendor, Labella, and a local construction contractor to implement the Solution. Labella will manage electrical and civil design, and permitting, and the construction contractor will install the Solution. The Project Manager, Project Director, and Vice President will be responsible for assessing, mitigating, and managing risks and dealing with any issues that arise throughout the execution process. A detailed project schedule is included in Appendix G. Please note that the schedule is subject to interconnection and permitting timelines. 4.2.1 Engineering & Design Labella will be responsible for both preliminary electrical design, detailed electrical design, and civil design. Before interconnection applications are submitted, preliminary equipment specifications will be determined. Further design will take place to facilitate the production of permitting packages, and interconnection designs will be completed in advance of a CESIR.When the interconnection agreement has been executed, Issued for Review (IFR) packages will be prepared and delivered to stakeholders including the Town and the Utility. Designs will be updated based on comments, and civil designs will be developed in advance of construction. When the civil and electrical designs are finalized, Issued for Construction(IFC) packages will be generated and issued to the construction contractor to initiate construction. In turn, the contractor will submit as-built drawings to NRStor C&I that reflect any changes made to the IFC drawings during construction. 4.2.2 Permitting Landfills are overseen by NYSDEC's Division of Materials Management, and in this case by Region 1 staff located in Stony Brook, NY. NYSDEC recently issued a draft guidance policy document specific to @2020 NRStor L.P.CONFIDENTIAL AND PROP RIEfARY-Not to be used by anyone other than the intended recipients NRStor C&I Proposal 7 RFP for Leasing of Cutchogue Landfill Property for Development, Construction, and O&M of Renewable Energy System Including Battery Energy Storage and/or Solar PV Systems the installation of solar panels on closed landfills titled Draft DMM-3 Photovoltaic Solar Projects Located at Closed Solid Waste Landfills. This draft guidance mandates the submittal of several technical studies to demonstrate how the integrity of the landfill cap will be maintained during and after construction.As required by NYSDEC, the following tasks will be completed by LaBella. 1. Pre-submittal conference with the Department(assumed to be via conference call). 2. A written request for approval to the Region 1 Materials Management Engineer that includes the following documents: a. Post-Closure Monitoring and Maintenance Plan (or modification of existing NYSDEC approved plan, if applicable); b. Construction drawings related to any construction activities that will breach the cap, proposed access roads, storm water controls, etc.; c.

Contingency plan detailing responses to issues such as potential erosion, construction- related damage to the cap, and/or detection of unsafe levels of landfill gasses. 3. Submission of a copy of the lease agreement with the property owner. In parallel, Labella will perform the following due diligence and permitting procedures to ensure compliance with municipal, state, and federal requirements: 1. SEAR(This step may be avoided if the final project footprint remains under 25 acres) 2. SHPO Letter of No Impact 3. Wetland surveys 4. Phase 1 ESA 5. Topography Survey (The topographic map provided by the Town dates to 2003, updated data is required for a more accurate site plan design) 6. Town approvals 7. Possible geotechnical investigation 4.2.3 Interconnection Once Labella has completed preliminary electrical design, NRStor will submit the SGIP interconnection application in accordance with the checklist in Appendix F of the Utility document titled `Smart Grid Small Generator Interconnection Procedures for Distributed Generators and Energy Storage Systems Less than 10 MW Connected in Parallel with LIPA's Radial Distribution Systems'. The Utility will notify NRStor in writing within ten business days following receipt of the application. If the application is not complete, the Utility will specify what is missing from the application and provide a list of additional information needed.A completed application will be placed in the interconnection queue maintained by the Utility. Once it is confirmed that the application is complete, the Utility will complete a Preliminary Analysis within fifteen Business days.Within ten business days after receiving the results of the Preliminary Analysis, NRStor will advise the Utility whether they should: 1. proceed to a Preliminary Screening Analysis results meeting, 2. proceed to Supplemental Screening Review, 3. proceed to a full CESIR, or @2020 NRStor L.P.CONFIDENTIAL AND PROP RIEfARY-Not to be used by anyone other than the intended recipients NRStor C&I Proposal 8 RFP for Leasing of Cutchogue Landfill Property for Development, Construction, and O&M of Renewable Energy System Including Battery Energy Storage and/or Solar PV Systems 4. withdraw the Interconnection Request. To ensure a timely completion of the interconnection process, NRStor may opt to immediately proceed to a full CESIR by executing a CESIR agreement within ten business days of being informed of the CESIR cost. Prior to commencement of the CESIR, and NRStor will provide the following information to the Utility: 1. a complete detailed interconnection design package(to be prepared by Labella), 2. Proof of site control and by executing the New York State Standard Site Control Certification Form, Appendix H, 3. The name and phone number and agent letter of authorization (if appropriate) of the individual(s) responsible for addressing technical and contractual questions regarding the proposed system, and 4. If applicable, advanced payment of the costs associated with the completion of the CESIR. After receiving this information, the Utility will complete the CESIR within sixty business days. Upon completion of the CESIR, the Utility will provide the following, in writing, to NRStor: 1. Impacts to the LIPA system, if any, 2. notification of whether the proposed system meets the applicable criteria considered in the CESIR process, 3. if applicable, a description of where the proposed system is not in compliance with these requirements, and 4. a detailed estimate of the total cost of completion of the interconnection of the proposed system and/or a statement of cost responsibility for a dedicated transformer(s) or other required interconnection equipment which is valid for sixty Business days. When NRStor has received the results of the CESIR, NRStor and the Utility will execute a standardized contract for interconnection and NRStor will provide the Utility with an advance payment of 30% of the estimated interconnection costs within ninety business days thereafter. NRStor plans to make this payment immediately after the contract has been executed to ensure the Utility commences procurement of the necessary equipment as soon as possible. 4.2.4 Procurement, Construction,and Commissioning After the interconnection agreement has been executed, and once design as progressed sufficiently, NRStor and the Vendor will initiate procurement. Purchase orders will be executed for solar modules, single-axis trackers, batteries, battery containers, inverters, transformers, switchgear, metering equipment, and balance of plant materials. In addition, NRStor will engage a local construction contractor to implement the Solution. The construction contractor will perform the required civil and electrical fit-out work in strict accordance with the required codes and standards and installation directions of the equipment manufacturers. NRStor will employ at least one North American Board of Certified Energy Practitioners ("NABCEP") Certified Photovoltaic Installer to supervise the installation and at least one Photovoltaic Installer who has previously played a managing role in a renewable energy installation upon a landfill. Fit-out work will include logistics and rigging (i.e. shipping of equipment, and storage if required), civil installation (trenching, piles, foundations, etc.), and equipment installation(solar modules, single-axis, battery containers, module racks, inverters, circuit breakers, transformers etc.), wiring, and the configuration of monitoring, controls, and safety systems. @2020 NRStor L.P.CONFIDENTIAL AND PROP RIEfARY-Not to be used by anyone other than the intended recipients NRStor C&I Proposal 9 RFP for Leasing of Cutchogue Landfill Property for Development, Construction, and O&M of Renewable Energy System Including Battery Energy Storage and/or Solar PV Systems When the system has been interconnected,commissioning will be completed by the construction contractor and representatives from inverter and battery manufacturers. The Utility will be given the opportunity to witness the tests. If the Utility opts not to witness the tests, NRStor will notify the Utility in writing that the system has been installed and tested in compliance with the Smart Grid SGIP and equipment manufacturer's instructions within five days after completion. When the Utility has received documentation verifying that the required tests have been completed and given their approval,the Solution will be allowed to commence operation. 4.2.5 Operations The Solution will be deployed under the Experion° Energy Program, a joint initiative by NRStor and Honeywell to deploy 300+ MW of battery storage capacity across North America beginning in 2020 (see the press release in Appendix D). Honeywell will wrap the operations platforms for the Solution. The Solution will be managed from NRStor and Honeywell's state-of-the-art ROCs using Honeywell's Experion° Elevate platform. The Experion° Elevate platform is a highly scalable SCADA solution that provides the highest levels of reliability, safety, and security, and incorporates innovative HMI technology. Honeywell hosts the required SCADA and HMI client servers with secure, private connections to relevant networks to retrieve data from NRStor's BESS assets and deliver data to end-users. Honeywell has teamed up with Microsoft, a top tier cloud infrastructure provider, to deliver a stable, flexible and secure platform. Honeywell's support teams maintain the software and hardware components of the Experion° Elevate platform and its supporting components within the Honeywell cloud, and provide technical support from their Global Technical Assistance Center. NRStor C&I will operate the Solution to earn VDER compensation. VDER compensates energy producers with monetary credits for each kWh injected into the grid. Through the Community Distributed Generation ("CDG")these credits can be allocated to subscribers to reduce their electricity bills. VDER credits are made up of five components: Energy, Installed Capacity (ICAP), Environmental Value, Demand Reduction Value (DRV), and Community Credit. There is a sixth component, Locational System Relief Value(LSRV),that is available for projects in certain areas, but it will not be available to the Solution. NRStor will capture the most value through the ICAP and DRV components. Generators can choose to be allocated ICAP credits in one of three ways. Generators that choose Alternative 1 are allocated ICAP credits for each kWh injected during the year, generators that choose Alternative 2 are allocated ICAP credits for each kWh injected to the grid during a known peak window, and generators that choose Alternative 3 are allocated Capacity Value credits based on their MW performance during the New York Control Area (NYCA) single peak hour in the previous year. The Utility's Alternative 2 peak window runs from 2:00 PM —7:00 PM on non-holiday weekdays from June 24 —August 31, and the New York Control Area (NYCA) single peak hour typically occurs during the summer. Alternative 3 is typically the most lucrative option, but it is also the riskiest because dispatch must be maximized during the NYCA single peak hour, and there is no warning as to which hour it will be. Therefore, NRStor C&I will choose to be allocated ICAP credits based on Alternative 2,which is less risky than Alternative 3 and tends to be more lucrative than Alternative 1. Like ICAP Alternative 2, DRV credits are allocated for each kWh injected to the grid between 2:00 PM and 7:00 PM on non-holiday weekdays from June 24 - September 15. Therefore, on non-holiday weekdays in the summer NRStor C&I will use the solar PV system to charge the BESS to its full capacity and then dispatch between 2:00 PM ad 7:00 PM to maximize ICAP and DRV compensation. @2020 NRStor L.P.CONFIDENTIAL AND PROP RIEfARY-Not to be used by anyone other than the intended recipients NRStor C&I Proposal 10 RFP for Leasing of Cutchogue Landfill Property for Development, Construction, and O&M of Renewable Energy System Including Battery Energy Storage and/or Solar PV Systems Under the Community Distributed Generation (CDG) program, the owner of a DER (a project "sponsor") can allocate the VDER credits they earn to other electricity customers ("subscribers") in return for payment. Typically, VDER credits are sold at a discount to their dollar value. For example, a sponsor may allocate VDER credits worth$100 to a subscriber in exchange for a$90 payment. This would effectively reduce the customer's electricity costs by 10%. NRStor is proposing to allocate as many VER credits as is permissible to the Town, who will benefit from a reduction in their electricity costs. According to the Utility Tariff, no more than 40% of the VDER credits earned by a CDG Host may serve satellites with loads of 25 kW or greater(for those members collectively). Therefore, NRStor will allocate 40% of the VDER credits earned by the Solution to accounts owned by the Town with loads of 25 kW or greater. If the Town owns any accounts with loads less than 25 kW, NRStor can allocate them credits as well. The payment that NRStor would receive in exchange for these credits is specified in Section 6 of this proposal. 4.2.6 Maintenance Preventative maintenance will consist of quarterly preventative maintenance, fire suppression system maintenance, HVAC maintenance, and annual preventative maintenance, all of which will be performed by one contractor who will familiarize themselves with the Solution and streamline processes as time goes on. Lists of typical maintenance procedures performed for NRStor's existing BESS assets are included in Appendix H. In addition to these tasks, NRStor will contract a consultant to visit the site at least twice a year to ensure that no damage to the landfill, landfill membrane, landfill equipment, erosion of topsoil, or other possible issues are caused by the Solution. J. tuffr- uii-i y impacts Table 1 -Community Impacts Community Impact Description Distributed Generation NRStor will allocate VDER credits earned by the Solution to subscribers in the surrounding community to reduce their electricity costs Job Creation Potential The Solution will require local permitting and construction support. Up to twenty people may be on site at one time during the height of construction,all of whom will patronize local businesses to purchase food and other supplies. Once completed, the Solution will undergo quarterly, biannual, and annual maintenance. Under their LTSA, the Vendor will hire a local electrician to complete this work. Community Disruption The Solution will result in limited community disruption during construction and will not result in community disruption during operation.During construction,the most noticeable increase in traffic will occur when equipment and heavy machinery are shipped to site.At other times, the increase in traffic will be less noticeable and consist of five to ten people commuting to and from site each day. Reliability The Solution will reduce the load on the Borough Hall network during peak times by exporting during the ICAP Alternative 2 and DRV window. This will result in enhanced reliability for Utility customers in the vicinity of the Solution. Education Community open houses will provide a means of educating the general public on the benefits of energy storage ©2020 NRStor L.P.CONFIDENTIAL AND PROPRIETARY—Not to be used by anyone other than the intended recipients NRStor C&I Proposal 11 RFP for Leasing of Cutchogue Landfill Property for Development, Construction, and O&M of Renewable Energy System Including Battery Energy Storage and/or Solar PV Systems 6. Pricing Proposal In exchange for allowing NRStor to construct, own, and operate the Solution on their property at 6155 Cox Ln, Cutchogue, NY 11935 for 20 years, the Town will be compensated by NRStor in the form Land Lease Contract payments as per a schedule agreed upon by NRStor and the Town. In addition, NRStor is proposing to allocate at least 40% of the VDER credits earned by the Solution in exchange for a payment equal to certain percentage of their dollar value. Each year NRStor expects to generate VDER credits worth approximately$1,000,000. NRStor is proposing two separate pricing scenarios for the Town to consider: pricing Scenario #1 [Monthly Land Lease Contract Payment Rate $13,333 [Anticipated Date Upon Which Land Lease Contract Payments are to CommenceDec 1,2021 tage of VDER Credit Dollar Value 85% Under Pricing Scenario#1, NRStor would pay the Town a Land Lease Contact payments of$13,333/month or $160,000/year.

Each year NRStor expects to generate VDER credits worth approximately $1,000,000. Therefore, NRStor would allocate VDER credits worth $400,000 to the Town in exchange for a payment equal to$340,000. In this case, the Town's electricity costs would be reduced by$60,000, for a total annual benefit of$220,000.
