TOSHIBA Leading Innovation >>> Little St. James Island Solar Photovoltaic & Energy Storage Proposal EFTA01109946 TOSHIBA Little St. James Island Leading Innovation >> Solar Photovoltaic & Energy Storage Proposal February 1, 2013 Jeanne Brennan LSJ, LLC 6100 Red Hook Qtr B3 St. Thomas, VI 00802 Submitted via email REF: Little St. James Island RENEWABLE ENERGY PRODUCTION PROPOSAL Dear Ms. Brennan: Toshiba International Corporation ("Toshiba") is proud to provide this preliminary proposal to evaluate and develop a renewable energy production system for island of Little St. James. Per our discussions we have provided you with four different options. Two of which will allow you to permanently isolate yourself from the WAPA grid, one being a total "green" solution the other utilizing your existing backup generation to provide the balance of power. We have also provided two solar only options that will allow you to save energy costs from those facilities when the solar resource is available, however, the balance of power will be provided from WAPA at their then current costs. Regrettably, the 100% "green power" solution requires significant additional capital cost to address energy storage requirements, however, over the longer term could result in being the most economical solution. Toshiba is a market leader in the development, installation and operations of fossil, nuclear and renewable energy power plants worldwide. We have developed and installed power plants as small as a few hundred kilowatts up to and exceeding 1,500 MWs. Our innovative power and electronic products along with our conservative design approach has yielded consistent customer satisfaction. It will be important for you as the customer of this project to choose a provider that has not only the experience and capabilities to ensure your system functions as designed but also has the financial wherewithal to stand behind each project we install. TIC has already installed the largest commercial PV system in the Virgin Islands for a big box retailer and is currently in the process of implementing a utility scale solar PV project for WAPA on the island of St. Croix.

EFTA01109949 TOSHIBA Little St. James Island Leading Innovation >>> Solar Photovoltaic & Energy Storage Proposal Executive Summary Toshiba International Corporation ("Toshiba") has prepared the following high level overview of several different renewable energy production options for Little Saint James Island in the USVI. The options are as follows: 1. Solar under WAPA's Net Metering Program — Install a 100 kWAc solar photovoltaic system, remain connected to WAPA's grid and purchase all additional power at WAPA's published rates. 2. Solar to meet the average maximum daily kilowatt demand (kW) with exporting power to the grid — Install a 200 kWAc solar photovoltaic system, remain connected to WAPA's grid and purchase all additional power at WAPA's published rates. Note that this option may not be feasible without the approval of WAPA due to the fact that this option exceeds WAPA's Net Metering Program and has potential to export power to the grid. 3. Solar to meet the maximum daily kilowatt hours (kWhs) required to power the island continuously for 24 hours — Install a 500 kWAc solar Photovoltaic System along with 200 kW4c, (1,998 kWhAc) of battery storage and disconnect from WAPA's grid. Use the existing diesel generators only in emergency or backup situations whenever the solar or battery systems are not delivering the required power to meet island's energy needs. This provides the island with a 100% green power solution. 4. Solar to meet the average maximum daily kilowatt demand (kW) and run the existing diesel generators as supplemental power — Install a 200 KWAc solar photovoltaic system and disconnect from WAPA's grid. The existing diesel generators will be required to run whenever the solar system is not delivering the required power needs of the island. The island will however be subject to future and volatile fluctuations in the market supply and price of diesel fuel. The contemplated solar generation systems being evaluated will ideally be located in the southern end of the island away from any existing structures. Final location and layout of the array will be determined upon option selection and during the detailed project development and engineering phase of this project. The proposed maximum area required for the largest solar system (700 kWoc) is approximately 2-3 acres.

EFTA01109950 TOSHIBA Little St. James Island Leading Innovation >>> Solar Photovoltaic & Energy Storage Proposal Preliminary Project Economics Toshiba has developed this prelimiary project's economic analysis using budgetary information and very basicbasisc pricing models. None of the preliminary ecomonics include any dollars for long term component replacement, insurance or cost of capital. In evaluating theses options it is important to not only look at first costs (simple payback) but also to understand the long term costs to operate and maintain these systems and supply fuel over a period of 20 to 30 years. In all options below there are additional capital costs for either interconnection to the WAPA grid for a partial solar solution, or computerized control systems for a 100% off-grid solution that must be contemplated over the cost of the basic solar system itself. Our analysis shows that all of these new systems should bring down the average cost of a kilowatt hour to between 30 and 40 cents. Presently, option 3 which inlcudes the largest solar system with battery storage technology is slightly above 40 cents per kilowatt hour but we believe that this number will decrease if we go to a mix of different battery technologies.

EFTA01109951 TOSHIBA Little St. James Island Leading Innovation >>> Solar Photovoltaic & Energy Storage Proposal Next Steps The next step would be to select one or two options to evaluate. This evaluation and detailed design phase is estimated to cost $120,000 and can be started immediately. It will include site visits to examine the existing equipment and determine the actual and projected island electricity demand and consumption. Once these systems are evaluated and this data is collected it will be used to size the systems. The design will include all of the equipment and controls needed to construct a fully automated renewable energy power plant. At the conclusion of the detailed evaluation and design phase, the results will be presented to LS1 along with the updated costs to install, operate and maintain the systems. Should you select Toshiba to implement either one of the options listed above the design fee above will be waived as it has been incorporated into the capital costs for each option. Preliminary System Overview Based upon the option selected by LSJ, Toshiba will evaluate and design a ground mounted solar photovoltaic generating plant and if applicable a battery energy storage system utilizing fixed tilt mono- or poly- crystalline solar modules and lithium ion or other similar battery storage technology. Facility Description The PV system will be located on the south end of the island away from any existing structures and will comprise no more than 2-3 acres of land. The location of the energy storage battery cells and their associated charge controllers has yet to be determined, but will most likely be located near the existing distribution control room building.
