12.3. Duty to Mitigate

SSN shall use reasonable efforts to (a) mitigate the duration of, and costs arising from, any suspension or delay in the performance caused by such delay, (b) continue to perform its obligations hereunder, to the extent that it is

 

OG&E Master Agreement 20091013 (Final) sjb    SSN – OG&E Confidential   


reasonably possible to do so in light of the circumstances giving rise to the delay, and (c) remedy its inability to perform caused by such delay. SSN shall give Customer written Notice when it is able to resume performance of its obligations under this Agreement.

12.4. Customer Suspension

If Customer’s ability to receive, install or place in service the Products or Services or to proceed with the Project is delayed for causes other than an SSN-caused delay that is not an Excusable Delay, Customer may request that SSN suspend the manufacture, shipment and/or installation of the Products or the provision of the Services. Customer shall provide SSN with written notice of any such suspension, or anticipated suspension, and the Project Schedule shall be changed to reflect such suspension. Upon receipt of any such suspension notice, the Project Schedule shall be changed and SSN shall provide Customer a written estimate of any reasonable additional costs and expenses that SSN will incur by reason of such delay. The applicable Purchase Orders shall be deemed amended to include such additional costs and expenses as additional Fees.

Any Party claiming Force Majeure as an excuse for delay in performance shall give prompt notice in writing thereof to the other Party and shall make commercially reasonable efforts to overcome the effect of the circumstance as quickly as possible.

12.6. Liquidated Damages.

 

  12.6.1. Right to Liquidated Damages. During the period identified in an SOW, Customer will have the right to claim Liquidated Damages if SSN fails to meet certain delivery or milestone dates, and such failure (a) materially delays the completion of the Project, and (b) is not caused by an Excusable Delay.

 

  12.6.2. Grace Period. SSN shall have the grace period set forth in the applicable SOW in which to cure its failure to meet the delivery or milestone dates or in good faith propose a mitigation plan reasonably acceptable to Customer without any assessment of Liquidated Damages. After such grace period, Liquidated Damages will be assessed at a rate specified in the SOW, until SSN provides Customer with a plan describing mitigation options or meets the delivery or milestone date. After reviewing the plan, Customer may select one or more of the proposed options and negotiate its implementation with SSN. Any disputes arising from this Section 12.6 will be resolved in accordance with Section 27 (“Disputes”).

 

  12.6.3. Sole and Exclusive Remedy. THE PARTIES ACKNOWLEDGE AND AGREE THAT ANY LIQUIDATED DAMAGES ARE A GENUINE PRE–ESTIMATE OF THE LOSS THAT CUSTOMER IS LIKELY TO SUFFER AS A RESULT OF ANY SSN DELAY IN MEETING A DELIVERY OR MILESTONE DATE, AND ARE NOT A PENALTY. SUBJECT TO CUSTOMER’S RIGHT TO TERMINATE THIS AGREEMENT AS PROVIDED IN SECTION 21.4 (“TERMINATION”), LIQUIDATED DAMAGES WILL BE CUSTOMER’S SOLE AND EXCLUSIVE REMEDY FOR SSN’S DELAY AND/OR FAILURE TO MEET A DELIVERY OR MILESTONE DATE. A CLAIM FOR LIQUIDATED DAMAGES SHALL NOT AFFECT CUSTOMER’S RIGHT TO TAKE ACTION OR SEEK DAMAGES FOR ADDITIONAL MATTERS UNRELATED TO THE DELAY.

 

  12.6.4. Limitations. In no case shall SSN’s liability for Liquidated Damages ***. For avoidance of doubt:

 

  (a) Customer will not be entitled to any Liquidated Damages where there is a permitted extension under this Agreement (unless SSN fails to meet the date of such extension).

 

OG&E Master Agreement 20091013 (Final) sjb    SSN – OG&E Confidential   


  (b)

The amount of Liquidated Damages that SSN is obligated to pay will be reduced for any period during which Customer or an Integrated Product Provider is responsible for a delay causing or contributing to SSN’s failure to meet a delivery or milestone date. Such reduction will be calculated by multiplying the amount of Liquidated Damages payable by SSN under Section 12.6.1 (“Right to Liquidated Damages”), by a fraction of 1 divided by the number of parties, including SSN, Integrated Product Provider, and Customer that are in part responsible for SSN’s failure to meet a Milestone Delivery Date. By way of example, if the Liquidated Damages claimed is $10,000, and there are four parties responsible for the delay, SSN would be liable for $2500 or $10,000 x  1/4.

 

  (c) Any and all amounts paid by SSN under this Section 12.6 shall be credited to any calculation of amounts payable by SSN under Section 20 (“Limitation of Liability”). By way of example, if SSN paid $25,000 in Liquidated Damages, SSN’s total liability under Section 20.2 (“Dollar Limit on Most Liabilities”) would be the amounts payable by Customer under this Agreement, less the $25,000 payable by SSN for Liquidated Damages.

 

  (d) Customer must submit all claims for Liquidated Damages in writing to SSN by completion of the SOW which gave rise to the claim.

13. SSN USE OF CUSTOMER FACILITIES

SSN will perform the Services at Customer’s or SSN’s location as set forth in the SOW.

Such notice shall be given as soon as practicable, but in no event later than thirty (30) days after the Party delivering the notice has actual knowledge of the fact or event from which the Dispute arises; provided that failure to provide notice within the foregoing time frames will not relieve the Party receiving the such notice of liability if such Party has or receives knowledge of the Dispute by other means, or if the failure to notify does not materially prejudice the receiving Party’s ability to respond to such notice.

Amendment #2

To the Fast-Start Smart Grid Project

Master Agreement

This Amendment # 2 (“Amendment”) amends the Fast-Start Smart Grid Project Master Agreement (the “Master Agreement”), by and between Oklahoma Gas and Electric (“OG&E”) and Silver Spring Networks, Inc. (“SSN”) on October 15, 2009. This Amendment shall be effective as of the date last signed by the Parties (“Amendment Effective Date”). Capitalized terms not defined in this Amendment shall have the same meaning as in the Master Agreement.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual promises and obligations below, SSN and OG&E agree to amend the Master Agreement as follows:

1. Master Agreement, Section 1 “Ordering Equipment from SSN”. The following section is added to Section 1:

1.4. OG&E Equipment Kept at SSN Facilities. From time to time, OG&E may purchase Equipment and/or tools from SSN, which will be held, maintained, and utilized in one of SSN’s facilities. This OG&E-owned Equipment and tools (collectively, “COE”) will be identified in each SOW. SSN may only use COE to perform its obligations under this Agreement or any applicable SOW. SSN acknowledges and agrees that OG&E shall have, at all times, all right, title and interest in the COE. SSN shall do the following with respect to such COE:

(a) Be responsible for the safekeeping of the COE, assume all risks of loss or damage to the COE and be liable for the full actual value of such COE, except for reasonable wear and tear.

(b) Design, maintain, and use the COE in accordance with all applicable OSHA requirements and other safety requirements, codes or standards, and keep in force a policy of Workers’ Compensation insurance as prescribed by the law of the state in which the work is performed. SSN may procure whatever additional insurance SSN deems appropriate. SSN, SSN’s insurer(s) and anyone claiming by, through, under, or in SSN’s behalf will have no claim, right of action, or right of subrogation against OG&E or OG&E’s customers based on any loss or liability insured against under any policy of insurance. SSN shall defend (at OG&E’s request), indemnify and hold harmless OG&E and OG&E’s customers from and against any and all losses, damages, claims, expenses, demands, suits, fines, penalties and liabilities (including reasonable attorney’s fees) of any kind and nature whatsoever (including but not limited to claims resulting from injuries or death to person or damage to property) in any way arising out of or resulting from the maintenance, possession, design, operation, use, condition, storage, or movement of the COE or any accident in connection therewith in accordance with Section 18.4 of this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, SSN shall not be liable under this subpart (b) for any loss, damage, claim, expense, demand, suit, fine, penalty or liability to the extent caused by OG&E or its employees or agents.

(c) Permanently mark or if impracticable to do so then affix labeling stating that the COE is the PROPERTY OF OKLAHOMA GAS AND ELECTRIC COMPANY.

(d) Store the COE when not in use, on racks or in sections of an SSN facility marked PROPERTY OF OKLAHOMA GAS AND ELECTRIC COMPANY. SSN will notify OG&E of the location of the COE upon receipt of the COE. If SSN removes all or any part of the COE from one facility to another, SSN shall continue to be responsible for loss and damage and SSN shall give OG&E at least ten (10) days advance notice, in writing, of the removal except when the removal is per a timeline provided in a mutually-executed SOW, or to protect the tooling from damage or loss.

(e) Deliver the COE to OG&E upon demand, FOB SSN’s facility, without additional charge for removal, packing, or crating.

 

OG&E_SSN Amend #2 16 May 2011 final       SSN and OGE Confidential


(f) Repair or replace parts of the COE as needed from time to time without charge to OG&E. This includes, among other things, adjusting, replacing power supplies or other hardware components, and keeping tools in good working condition. At any time when SSN proposes replacing the entire piece of COE because (a) COE life has been expended or COE is beyond economical repair, or (b) OG&E design changes necessitate modification or complete replacement, SSN shall provide OG&E a recommended course of action on the respective COE. If OG&E opts to replace the COE, such replacement shall be shall be subject to the terms of this Agreement.

(g) SSN may not allow any security interest, lien, tax lien or other encumbrance (collectively, “Encumbrance”) to be placed on any COE. SSN shall give OG&E immediate written notice should any third party attempt to place or place an encumbrance on COE. SSN shall indemnify and hold OG&E harmless from any such Encumbrance resulting from a breach of this Section 1.4. SSN shall, at OG&E’s request, promptly execute a “protective notice” UCC-1 form and all other documents reasonably necessary to enable OG&E to protect its interest in COE. This Agreement shall constitute the security agreement required by the UCC of the appropriate state.

(h) Upon reasonable prior written notice, OG&E may inspect, inventory, and authenticate the number of COE furnished under this Agreement during SSN’s normal business hours. SSN shall provide OG&E access to the premises where all such tooling is located at a mutually agreed-upon time and date. SSN’s obligations with respect to COE under this Agreement are for the protection of OG&E’s property. An SSN default under this Section 1.4 shall be deemed a material breach of this Agreement under Section 21.2. SSN shall, at OG&E’s option, return to OG&E or hold for OG&E’s disposition (free of restrictions) for a period of sixty (60) days, unless otherwise mutually agreed, for any or all of COE in SSN’s possession at (a) expiration, cancellation or termination of this Agreement, or (b) upon OG&E’s written request.

5. Special Instructions

Other Reporting:

Details regarding the data elements set forth below are provided in the “Guidebook for ARRA Smart Grid Program Metrics and Benefits”, or Guidebook, dated December 7,2009, provided separately.

A. Reporting of Cumulative Jobs Created/Retained

 

   

The Recipient must report the data specified in this section on a monthly basis beginning with the first month following notification of approval by the Office of Management and Budget of the Department of Energy’s request for monthly reporting. The data in this section is required quarterly that time.

 

   

Recipient will provide the data required in this section via a mutually agreed upon format and media to DOE.

 

   

Recipients will report the cumulative number of jobs directly created or retained by project and activity or contract. Recipients will be required to report these direct jobs numbers by labor categories, as provided below:

 

   

Managers

 

   

Engineers

 

   

Computer-related Occupations

 

   

Environmental and Social Scientists

 

   

Construction, Electrical and Other Trades

 

   

Analysts,

 

   

Business Occupations

 

   

Recording, Scheduling, Computer Operator Occupations

 

   

A job created is a new position created and filed or an existing unfilled position that is filed as a result of the Recovery Act; a job retained is an existing position that would not have been continued to be filed were it not off Recovery Act funding. A job cannot be counted as both created and retained. Also, only compensated employment in the United States or outlying areas should be counted. See 74 FR 14824 for definitions.

 

   

The estimate of the number of jobs required by the Recovery Act should be expressed as “full-time equivalents” (FTE), which is calculated as total hours worked in jobs created or retained divided by the number of hours in a full-time schedule, defined here as 2,080 hours per calendar year. The FTE estimates must be reported cumulatively each calendar quarter.

 

   

Prime recipients of these grants must include in the aggregate number an estimate of jobs created and retained on projects and activities managed by their funding sub-recipients (including prime and sub-prime contractors).

 

   

Recipients will have the option to report on the employment impact on materials and equipment suppliers and central service providers (so-called “indirect” jobs). Employees who are not directly charged to Recovery Act supported projects/activities, who, nonetheless, provide critical indirect support are considered indirect jobs created/retained. Recipients will not be required to report on the employment impact on the local community (“induced” jobs).

 

   

The requirement for reporting jobs is based on a simple calculation used to avoid overstating the number of other than full-time, permanent jobs. This calculation converts part-time or temporary jobs into “full-time equivalent” (FTE) jobs. In order to perform the calculation, a recipient will need the total number of hours worked that are funded by the Recovery Act by category and the total number of hours worked for the entire project by labor category. The number of hours in a full-time schedule for a quarter will equal 520 (one-quarter of 2,080) and for a month will equal 173.33.

The two formulas for reporting (if reporting is performed quarterly) are represented as:

“Cumulative Recovery Act Funded Hours Worked (qtr 1...n)” divided by

“cumulative hours in a full-time schedule”

“Cumulative Total Project Hours Worked (qtr 1...n)” divided by

“cumulative hours in a full-time schedule”

The two formulas for reporting (if reporting is performed monthly) are represented as:

“Cumulative Recovery Act Funded Hours Worked (month 1...n)” divided by

“cumulative hours in a full-time schedule”

“Cumulative Total Project Hours Worked (qtr 1...n)” divided by

“cumulative hours in a full-time schedule”

B. Reporting Requirements for Metrics and Benefits

The recipient is required to report Build Metrics on a quarterly basis and Impact Metrics and Benefits on a semi-annual basis following the award date. Baseline data will be provided as specified within the Metrics and Benefits Reporting Plan. The recipient will provide this information in a mutually agreed upon format and media to a location identified by DOE.

C. Reporting Requirements for Consumer Behavior Studies

Special Note: This section only applies to recipients who proposed in their application submitted in response to the Funding Opportunity Announcement Number DE-FOA-0000058 to conduct a consumer behavior study with control and randomized treatment groups


C.1 Evaluation Reports

Participating recipients shall submit a comprehensive interim Evaluation Report, within 360 days following commencement of the Consumer Behavior Study, and a final Evaluation report at completion of the study, as specified in the Consumer Behavior Study Plan. Participating recipients shall submit a draft of both the interim and final Evaluation Reports to DOE and make a good faith effort to address issues raised by DOE in the final version of the Evaluation Reports. The Evaluation Reports shall include at a minimum:

 

1. Overview of the project, including its goals;

 

2. Description of how the project was designed and implemented to achieve these goals;

 

3. Synopsis of the evaluation framework and methodology; and

 

4. Summary of the results and lessons learned.

The Final Evaluation Report will be made available to the public; confidential information should not be included.

C.2 Provision of Project Data

The recipient shall be responsible for submitting comprehensive data that was used, or served as the foundation, for the analysis of the dynamic pricing with randomization project, as defined within the Consumer Behavior Study Plan. Please refer to Appendix D of the Guidebook. The recipient will provide customer-level data in a mutually agreed upon format and media to DOE, or an entity designated by DOE (e.g. a national laboratory). It is expected that the data provided to DOE shall have gone through the necessary quality assurance processes internal to the recipient in order to ensure the data is accurate and complete. This data shall be consistent with requirements outlined in the final submitted Consumer Behavior Study Plan. The data will be publicly available for subsequent analysis and evaluation for those interested in assessing and better understanding the impacts that dynamic pricing enabled by the smart grid can have on customer behavior. The identity of specific customers shall not be included with the data. To protect customer confidentiality, masked customer identifiers shall be provided for individual customers. It is expected that the data will include at a minimum the following data elements for each customer: 1) hourly interval data for electric consumption, tariff pricing (i.e., retail rate level in effect), and weather; 2) customer characteristics (as described in Appendix D of the Guidebook); and 3) hourly electricity usage data for 12-18 months prior to the dynamic pricing project.
