Watson, M er Date: _ 8 ATTEST: Q Christine S. Pauiey, Clerk -Treasurer Date: RIS EXHIBIT 1 Exhibit 1 begins on the next page. November 22, 2016 Memorandum of Understanding — execution copy Duke Energy Indiana, LLC and the City of Carmel, Indiana Underground Electric Facilities Project Memorandum of Understanding I . Duke Energy Indiana (DEI) and the City of Carmel (City) have been in discussions concerning the City's request to DEI to relocate certain overhead electric transmission and distribution facilities, which include poles, wires and other equipment necessary Ibr transmission and distribution of electricity (the Facilities). The Facilities are currently located in a transmission corridor comprised of written and prescriptive easements owned by DEI and extending, for purposes of the description of this project, from I" Street Northwest south to the south side of East Carmel Drive (the Easements). 2. The relocation of the Facilities is to be done in proposed Phases 1 -IV (Project), with proposed Phases 1 and 11 having the highest priority. An aerial depiction of the Project and its proposed Phases is attached as Exhibit A to this MOU. The Easements are also depicted on the attached Exhibit A. Exhibit A is not intended to serve as a surveyor's document. 3. As discussed in a meeting held on November 16, 2016 with the City, DEI understands the following: a. Phase I Transmission: Proposed Phase I commences on the south side of East Carmel Drive, at above -ground facilities to be located at the southwest comer of Curley's brickyard on an existing DEI above -ground easement; moves north along the west side of the brickyard in a City -obtained above -ground easement to a riser pole near East Carmel drive; passes under East Carmel Drive in a City - granted exclusive easement; and proceeds underground in a City -obtained exclusive easement west on private property to the City Right of Way (ROW) that abuts the Proscenium development on its west side. From there, the transmission facilities will run north in a City -granted exclusive underground easement in the City ROW under what will be parking and grassy areas, until it meets Veteran's Way. From there, Phase I will proceed north in a City -granted exclusive underground easement located in the northbound travel lane of Veteran's Way to 609575 1 Exhibit 1 Phase I and 111 November 22, 2016 Memorandum of Understanding — execution copy a point south ofthc Carmel City Ccnter. Most of proposed Phase I is not located in the Easements except at the north end as it begins to meet and follow Veteran's Way. Phase I Distribution: Proposed Phase I of the Project commences on the south side o1'East Carmel Drive in above -ground facilities located in the Easements and will proceed underground in a City -granted easement under East Carmel Drive to the City's ROW under Veteran's Way where distribution will proceed north in a City -granted underground easement in the south bound travel lane of Veteran's Way to a point south of City Center. Distribution surface facilities and underground service feeds will require additional easements that are sufficient to meet all NESC codes and are at least 10 feet in width (5 feet on both sides of the centerline of final engineering designs). b. Phase III Transmission: Proposed Phase III connects to proposed Phase I and the Parties anticipate that Phases I and III will be undertaken either simultaneously or in overlapping fashion. Phase Ill runs north in a City -granted exclusive underground easements generally in the southbound travel lane of Veterans Way (subject to final design which may require that transmission veer to the center of Veteran's Way) and turns west at the Carmel Fire Station, ending at the south end of the existing 69k V underground electric facilities located near the northwest corner of the Carmel Fire Station property. The City owns the property in Proposed Phase III that is in the Easement and has indicated that it intends to extend a roadway called Veteran's Way from a point north of Phase i to the existing Veteran's Way near the City Center. Phase III Distribution: Proposed Phase III connects to proposed Phase I and the Parties anticipate that Phases I and III will be undertaken either simultaneously or in overlapping fashion. Phase III for distribution feeder facilities will run north in a City -granted underground easement in the north bound travel lane of Veteran's Way, and turn west at the Carmel Fire Station ending at the south end of the 609575 2 Exhibit 1 Phase I and III November 22, 2016 Memorandum of Understanding — execution copy 609575 existing underground distribution facilities. Distribution surface facilities and underground service feeds will require additional easements that are sufficient to meet all NESC codes and are at least 10 feet in width (5 feet on both sides of the centerline of final engineering designs). The City agrees that if Phase [If is not commenced at the same time as Phase 1, Phase 1 will end in above -ground facilities that may later be converted and removed, all at additional cost to the City. Until Phase fit is commenced, the above -ground facilities in Phase I will remain in place as will the Facilities in the Easements in the area called Phase 111. c. Phase IV Transmission: Phase IV will connect to the north portion of the existing underground 69kV and will end at a point near 6'h Street S.W. yet to be determined. Phase IV distribution: Phase IV will connect to the north portion of the existing underground facilities and will end at a point near 6'I' Street S.W. yet to be determined. Distribution above -grade and service feeds will require additional easements that are sufficient to meet all NESC codes and are at least 10 feet in width (5 feet on both sides of the centerline of final engineering designs). The timing and final route of proposed Phase IV after meeting existing underground Facilities has not been determined. It is therefore possible that Phase IV will not be undertaken by the City and/or that the design will change. In that case, proposed Phase I1 will start at above -ground facilities which may later be converted and/or removed, all at additional cost to the City until Phase IV is commenced. Any such above -ground Facilities will remain in Phase II as will the Facilities in the Easements in the area called Phase IV. d. Phase II Transmission. Assuming Phase IV and Phase If are not simultaneously undertaken, then Phase II begins at a riser pole at I" Avenue SW near 6'h St. S.W. and proceeds west on 6'h St. S.W. to Monon Blvd. in a City -granted exclusive Exhibit 1 Phase I and III November 22, 2016 Memorandum of Understanding — execution copy underground casement in the City ROW. Transmission will then run north on Monon Blvd. in a City -granted exclusive underground easement in the northbound travel lane of Monon Blvd. and turn cast at the north end of the DEI substation at 340 1" Street S.W. The City understands that DEI must use the north end of its substation because of the location of certain 69kV facilities. Transmission then turns and proceeds north in a City -granted exclusive underground easement in the northbound travel lane of I" Ave. S.W. and crosses under East Main Street and ends at above -ground facilities on the north side of I" St. N.W., at a riser pole on private property in a City- obtained exclusive easement. Phase 11 Distribution: Distribution will turn east on 6"' St. S.W. in a City -granted underground easement and continue north in a City -granted underground easement in the southbound travel lane under I" Ave. S.W. to the same end point as transmission described in tine paragraph above. These paragraphs are not intended to be a legal description but instead, are intended to outline DEI's understanding of the Project as proposed by the City. 4. The City has agreed to pay for all costs related to the relocation of all existing above- ground Facilities and to provide exclusive underground transmission easements and distribution easements that the City will obtain and grant to DEI in return for which the City requests that DEl release its Easements and relocate its Facilities. 5. The City understands and agrees that DEI must take into account that I) the transmission Facilities currently located in DEI's Easements are MISO critical, meaning MISO determines when such transmission Facilities may be offline and for how long; 2) DEI cannot impose costs associated with benefits to one group of customers on other customers; and 3) DEI must continue to provide safe and reliable service under regulatory mandates. DEI must also take into account that it currently has property interests in its Easements and that with this Project, the City is asking DEI to release 4 6o9S75 Exhibit 1 Phase I and III November 22, 2016 Memorandum of Understanding — execution copy 609575 those interests in favor of underground easements a) granted by the City under, in or on City -owned property including public road right of ways and b) acquired by the City under, in or on privately owned property. These new easements are generally referred to as Relocation Areas. G. The basis upon which DEI will undertake each Phase of this Project are set forth below. The City acknowledges that the conditions in Paragraphs 7 (b), (e), (f), (j), (k), (1) and (m) are conditions precedent to each Phase of this Project and must be met by the City before the particular Phase will be undertaken. Although DEI intends to move forward with each Phase even if all Phases are not undertaken at the same time, each Phase must meet the conditions precedent and a failure to meet these conditions will cause the Phase to be relocated on terms acceptable to DEI or, barring an ability to relocate, to be cancelled. This MOU is also the basis in principal, for additional agreements and documents necessary to effectuate each Phase of the Project, which include, as necessary Phase 1, 11, 111 and IV Transmission and Distribution Relocation Agreements, which are based on the principles set forth below but will enumerate the items necessary to commence construction of each phase. 7. The Parties agree as follows: a. The City shall pay all costs, subject to usual DEI payment times and terms. For example, DEI distribution requires the City to sign a relocation agreement before work is done, agreeing to pay actual costs after work is completed. Transmission requires that the City pay for materials as they are ordered and for monthly work arising from the relocation of any and all of the above -ground electric transmission/distribution Facilities currently located in the DEI Easements and public road right of way that form the basis of the Project, whether or not a proposed Phase is completed or abandoned. For clarity if, for example, DEI incurs engineering costs in considering the feasibility of any proposed Phase or aspect of the Project and concludes that the work cannot move forward under these terms, such "stranded" costs shall be paid by the City. Costs shall include, but are not limited to, costs related to obtaining necessary easements or other property 5 Exhibit 1 Phase I and III November 22, 2016 Memorandum of Understanding — execution copy interests in the Relocation Areas, legal and engineering costs, environmental costs, purchase of materials, the construction and relocation of Duke Facilities (including DEI and contracted labor), and removal and disposal of any above- ground facilities. The City acknowledges that DEI will not subsidize any cost of this Project at the expense of other DEI customers or Duke Energy shareholders. b. The City and DEI shall work together in good faith to identify any non -DEI third parties who currently are located in Facilities in the Easements and to notify them of each Phase of this Project. DEI will provide the information that it has regarding third parties located in Facilities in the Easements on or before 5 business days of the execution of this MOU. The City shall notify and negotiate agreements with any non -DEI third party users currently in the Easements to relocate their non -electric facilities and such relocation shall not include DEI's exclusive 25' transmission easements to be granted by the City as part of the Project. The relocation of the third -party non -electric facilities shall not be the responsibility of DEI and the City shall hold DEI harmless from any claims or causes of action arising from the relocation of such third party users that arise from the Phases of this Project and relocation out of the Easements. c. On an ongoing basis, the City shall pay the cost differential arising from or relating to repair, maintenance, replacement and/or relocation of the underground transmission Facilities, which shall be calculated by taking the actual costs incurred less the repair cost of the same span in feet of overhead facilities as calculated in the year in which the maintenance, repair or replacement occurs. For example, if the actual cost of repairing 50 feet of new underground facilities that are built as part of this Project is $100,000 and the cost of repair of 50 feet of overhead facilities is $50,000, the City shall pay the $50,000 differential. Avoided costs, including Operation & Maintenance costs will not be considered, as they are speculative. 609575 6 Exhibit 1 Phase I and III November 22, 2016 Memorandum of Understanding — execution copy 609S75 d. By resolution and associatcd permitting, City shall not use or authorize any third party underground use of public road right of ways where the DEI's exclusive underground transmission facilities are located and shall not use or authorize the use of underground or above -ground public road right of ways where DEI distribution facilities are located (except in the case of travel) without the prior review and written approval of DEI. The City shall be responsible for all costs if DEI must repair, modify or relocate its facilities as a result of any underground use ol'public road right of ways not approved by DEL e. The City shall have the right to cross DEI's underground transmission facilities with the City's water lines so long as the City crosses in a perpendicular fashion, at an angle greater than 30 degrees off the road center line, with appropriate clearances as required by code, accepted standards, Duke operational requirements, or as agreed upon by the parties. f. The City must provide DEI with two sets of easements for each of the Relocation Areas: The first set of easements is for transmission Facilities and for purposes of the Project must a) remain exclusive; b) be a minimum of 25 feet wide; and c) meet DEI engineering depth requirements which are dependent on grading and other variables. Exclusive means that no other utilities run in parallel within the 25 -foot easement and that any crossing utilities have been approved in advance by DE1 to ensure they are sufficiently distant from the transmission line and clearly and readily identifiable. 1- Exclusively must be memorialized by i) recording the underground exclusive easements; ii) the passage of a resolution(s) by the City's Board of Public Works limiting the use of DEI's 25' exclusive easements; iii) permitting; iv) a Letter Agreement between DEI and City by which the City will enter an "evergreen" and other hold harmless provisions mutually acceptable to both parties; and Exhibit 1 Phase I and III November 22, 2016 Memorandum of Understanding — execution copy V) where a new project or development is within 100 feet of DE I's exclusivc easement, an agreement to include a description of the 25' exclusive easements' location and recording information in every dedication or grant of public road right of way the City accepts from a developer, all of which are intended to provide third parties, including other utilities and developers, whether present or future, notice of DEI's exclusive rights granted by the City for this Project. Further, the City will obtain from Hamilton County a waiver i1rom the applicable drainage board of that board's statutory right to require DEI (i) to obtain a permit to use any legal drain that is or may be placed in any Phase and/or (ii) to relocate, modify or support DEI facilities in the future at the expense of DEI for any drain project. 3. All utilities currently installed within the 25 -foot easement must be identified by the City to DEI and DEI shall have no obligation to proceed with any proposed Phase until such utilities have been identified and either relocated or determined by DEI to present no threat to the safety or reliability of the Facilities, including without limitation, thermal influence. Already existing City sewer may remain so long as it meets the requirements set out above. 4. The City understands that the information it is required to provide under this paragraph must be provided during preliminary engineering of each phase and that information so provided may result in a need to either relocate a proposed Phase or cancel it if the condition of this MOU cannot be met. To the extent City sewer (or by agreement with DEI, other utilities) remain in the underground transmission easements that the City grants to DEI the City shall enter into encroachment agreements with DEI that, amount other things, indemnifies DEI against any claims or losses arising from damage to the sewer (or any 609575 8 Exhibit 1 Phase I and III November 22, 2016 Memorandum of Understanding — execution copy approved encroaching utilities or services) caused by DEI in constructing, operating, and maintaining its Facilities. ii. The second set of easements is for distribution Facilities for each Phase which, for purposes of this Project, must be a minimum of 10 feet in width (5 feet on both sides of the centerline of final engineering designs). For example, although distribution may be able to use a 10 -foot easement under a traveled road for its feeder line, it will also need a minimum of 10 - foot easements for each service line, and easements that are substantially wider for above -grade facilities such as switchgear. In all cases, the size and location of distribution facilities will be determined by DEI and no distribution facilities will be in or on buildings. In all cases, DEI must have sufficient easements to meet all NESC requirements. The City also agrees that distribution has no obligation to consider the use of existing duct bank currently located in Phase 11. iii. The City's inability to meet these requirements mean the proposed Phase cannot proceed as outlined. g. City agrees that this Project is non -precedent setting. No agreement in respect to this Project may be used as basis to claim waiver, acquiescence or agreement by DEI to any other future project. h. The City agrees that at its sole expense it will give DEI immediate and unrestricted access to any new underground Facilities via street closures (or other necessary actions), and will undertake immediate traffic control in the event of an emergency condition to effectuate repairs/maintenance to the Facilities. The City acknowledges that street closures may occur for extended periods to allow for repair/maintenance/replacement and agrees to provide the necessary time without pressure to reopen such streets. For non -emergency conditions for repairs and maintenance, notice shall be given by DEI, with reasonable efforts to avoid 9 609575 Exhibit t Phase I and III November 22, 2016 Memorandum of understanding — execution copy 609575 repairs and maintenance during previously scheduled festivals, events or parades. Upon such notice, the City shall give the same access as for emergency repairs or maintenance. The parties agree that "emergency conditions include unplanned work and any work that is subject to a MISO-imposed timeline. The City shall provide a copy of this or any later relevant agreement to the appropriate City departments or entities with whom DEI must work in these situations. For example, if the police department will effectuate a street closure, the department must be given notice of this agreement and the City must provide a point of contact to DEL That point of contact shall have all necessary authority to grant DEI immediate access. i. This Project does not include any changes to the existing DEl Carmel substations and shall not include plantings. The existing street cuts on the east side of the substation on I" Avenue S.W. shall be maintained and DEI shall be given one additional curb cut onto Monon Blvd. The City is also willing to modify the curb design to a rolled curb to allow access to the DEI 1" Street substation. To the extent any Phase of the Project requires changes to the substation that would not otherwise be necessary but for the installation of any Phase of the Project, not including load growth, the City shall pay for those changes. DEI reserves all its rights to use its substation properties and such rights are not affected by this MOU. J. The City will undertake the construction of any necessary underground duct banks and structures to effectuate the Relocation of the Facilities using a DEI - approved contractor, who shall construct the underground facilities to meet DEI's standards and specifications. DEI will provide an inspector, to be charged as part of Project costs, at the time of installation of such items to review and approve work as satisfactorily completed. DEI will not assume any liability arising from or related to the incorrect construction of the underground Facilities by the City's contractor and reserves the right to reject the existing duct bank in proposed Phase II if it does not meet its standards or is unable to pass testing prior to repairs. The 10 Exhibit 1 Phase I and III November 22, 2016 Memorandum of Understanding — execution copy City agrees that it will pay for any and all costs associated with the repair ofthe existing duct bank in the event DEI determines that the duct bank can be used. DEI will remain responsible for the design/construction and installation of electrical equipment, but all costs associated therewith are to the City's account. k. All easements necessary to each Phase of the Project shall be in place, first in time with respect to any encumbrance, and granted to DEI prior to the commencement of any construction work. Such grant is a necessary condition precedent to further DEI obligations for any proposed. Phase. DEI will retain its current Easements and maintain energized above -ground Facilities until both a) the new easements are granted and recorded so as to confer the necessary rights on DEI and provide notice to third parties; b) the underground facilities are tested, energized and operational; and c) all existing customers are assured continuous services. Only if and after these requirements are met, will DEI remove overhead facilities and upon completion of the removal, release any portion of its Easements and then only with respect to the Phase completed, assuming both transmission and distribution are complete. I. The City is and remains responsible for obtaining any approvals or permissions necessary to the Project and such approvals or permissions are again, precedent conditions to DEI's undertakings. m. The City, by its contractors, shall undertake all boring/testing/sampling necessary to meet any applicable DEI requirements, laws, or regulations, including all environmental laws, regulations or requirements, necessary to engineering, constructions and subsequent operations of any Phase of the Project. The City or any other property owner or developer are and remain responsible for any environmental liability associated with disturbing or removing any materials in any Phase of the Project and for any remediation costs. In the event environmental boring/testing/sampling reveal any type of environmental condition that may affect reliable and safe service via underground Facilities in any Phase of this 11 609575 Exhibit 1 Phase I and III November 22, 2016 Memorandum of Understanding — execution copy Project, that Phase will not be undertaken by DCI and that portion of the Incilitics will remain above -ground in the existing Easements. n. The Parties agree that the ternis as set forth in this MOU are reasonable and that the failure to meet certain terms of this MOU, as set out above, may result in the cancellation of a Phase of or the Project. The Parties further agree to execute any agreements or documents necessary to effectuate these terms. I lowever, this MOU, once executed will allow the Parties to commence with the initial steps of the phases of this Project, in reliance on (lie terms and conditions herein.

Pursuant to the Tax Cut & Jobs Act ("TCJA") that was signed into law effective as of December 22, 2017, section 118 of the U.S. Internal Revenue Code was modified to exclude from non-taxable treatment any contribution in aid of construction or any other contribution as a potential customer, as well as any contribution by any governmental entity or civic group. As a result of the TCJA the work performed by DEI under this Agreement, may be subject to a tax gross up (the "Tax Gross Up Payment"). The Parties agree that this Agreement is part of the City's master development plan and is also subject to a memorandum of understanding signed by the Parties on November 29, 2016. The Parties further acknowledge that the TCJA contains a limited transition rule which provides that a contribution made pursuant to a "master development plan" that was approved prior to the effective date of the TGA by a governmental entity is governed by prior law, and therefore may not be taxable. In the interim and subject to further clarification by the IRS, the City will pay the amount due and owing under the Tax Gross Up Payment pursuant to Section 5 of this Agreement. However, if the Phase I Distribution Relocation Services are later determined by the IRS to be to be non-taxable to DEI , the Tax Gross Up Payment will be returned to the City. The City's agreement to pay the Tax Gross Up Payment herein does not constitute an admission by or waive the City's ability to argue, in any forum whatsoever, that the Tax Gross Up Payment does not apply to this Project or any other project entered into between the Parties.
