| Item 1.01 | Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement. |
On November 25, 2013, the Regulatory Commission of Alaska (RCA) approved the Gas Sale and Purchase Agreement (GSPA) between Chugach Electric Association, Inc. (Chugach) and Cook Inlet Energy, LLC (CIE) filed with the RCA on September 30, 2013 and effective December 2, 2013. The RCA also approved inclusion of all gas costs incurred under the GSPA through Chugach’s fuel and purchased power cost adjustment mechanism.
The agreement may supply gas from April 1, 2014 through December 31, 2018, with an option to extend for an additional five (5) years by mutual agreement during the term of the GSPA. The GSPA with CIE provides Chugach with an opportunity to diversify its gas supply portfolio, and minimize its current dependence on the gas agreements in place with two (2) vendors. The gas that may be purchased under the GSPA with CIE is not required, however it introduces a new pricing mechanism.
The GSPA identifies and defines two types of gas purchases. Base Gas is defined by the volume of gas purchased on a firm or interruptible basis at an agreed delivery rate. Pricing for base gas purchases ranges from $6.12 to $7.31 per thousand cubic feet (Mcf). Swing Gas is gas sold to Chugach at a delivery rate in excess of the applicable Base Gas agreed delivery rate. Pricing for swing gas purchases ranges from $7.65 to $9.14 per Mcf.
