PRICING

Pricing Methodology

The price the County will pay the Vendor during the contract period is based on the following formula:

The result of the formula is the price per LNG gallon delivered.

The bidder shall provide a price for variables Y and Z in the formula.

No deviations to the formula below will be accepted.

Vendor must identify the amount of LCFS credits applied per gallon prior to providing Profit (Y)

(((So Cal Gas index/12.104) + Y) x Tax Rate) + Transportation Cost per Gallon, where:

So Cal Gas index = the average natural gas price per MMBtu for Southern California Gas Company for the month LNG is delivered to a County or City of Sacramento storage tank as published in Platt's Inside F.E.R.C. Gas Market Report by McGraw-Hill Companies, Inc. (800) 223-6180.

12.104 = the LNG gallons per MMBtu of natural gas.

Y = all vendors costs and profit for each gallon of LNG delivered.

Tax Rate = the total California State and local sales taxes per gallon. These charges may vary per location, depending on state and local requirements.

Transportation Cost per Gallon = freight charges (Z) divided by the actual LNG gallons delivered, if delivery is equal to or greater than 9,500 gallons*.

* if delivery is 9,499 gallons or less: Transportation Cost per Gallon = normal freight charges (Z) divided by 9,500 gallons.

FIXED PRICE FOR FREIGHT CHARGES AND VENDOR COSTS AND PROFIT: Charges for freight (Z) and Vendors costs and profit (Y) shall be fixed during the contract term.

For Bid Evaluation Purposes Only: For the SoCal Gas Index Rate, use $2.025, and assume 9,500 gallons of fuel to be delivered.

How would a 48 hour delivery requirement affect pricing?

FEDERAL EXCISE TAX CREDIT FOR ALTERNATIVE FUEL:

If at any time during the duration of this agreement, the federal excise tax credit for alternative fuel becomes available during or after the duration of this agreement and retroactive to a period of time during the duration of this agreement, the County and City of Sacramento, and not the Vendor, shall file with the IRS the reimbursement for their applicable Motor Fuel Excise Tax Credit based on their eligibility.

LOW CARBON FUEL STANDARD (LCFS) CREDIT:

The County reserves the right at any time during the term of thiscontract, per California Code of Regulations (CCR) 17, sections 95840-95490, to become the Regulated Party to take advantage of

LCFS Credits. The County shall provide 30-days written notice to the Vendor when it intends to become the Regulated Party, at which time the Vendor, if it was the Regulated Party prior, will no longer be the Regulated Party or have any ownership of credits or claim on the sale of any credits going forward on the fuel receiived by the County. At such time as the County elects to become the Regulated Party, the Vendor shall provide, with each delivery of fuel to the County, a product transfer document that, at a minimum, prominently states:

a. the name of the transferor (Vendor) and transferee (County); and

b. the date of the transaction; and

c. the type of fuel transferred; and

d. the volume and average carbon intensity of the transferred fuel; and

e. the recipient is now the regulated party for the acquired fuel and accordingly is responsible for meeting the requirements of the LCFS regulation with respect to the acquired fuel.

The County shall reserve the right, at its sole discretion, to subsequently revert Regulated Party status back to the Vendor.

The County shall provide 30-days written notice to the Vendor of any such reversion. The Vendor may assume all rights and responsibilities of Regulated Party status upon the date of reversion as identified by the County and as such may be responsible for meeting the requirements of the LCFS regulation with respect to the delivered fuel from that date forward. The Vendor shall have no ownership stake in, nor any claim with regard to the sale of, any LCFS credits accumulated and held by the County during any period(s) that the County was, or is, the Regulated Party.
