WITNESSETH WHEREAS, Key West International Airport ("EYW"), located at 3491 S. Roosevelt Boulevard, Key West, Florida, is owned and operated by the COUNTY, and provides air carrier service to hundreds of thousands of passengers annually; and WHEREAS, notwithstanding the references to "COUNTY", all payments made pursuant to this Agreement by the COUNTY, as the owner and operator of EYW, shall be made from the Airport Enterprise fund; and WHEREAS, EYW is a vital transportation resource for Monroe County residents and visitors, and supports the economic engine of tourism within the City of Key West and Monroe County; and WHEREAS,EYW serves as an entry point for medical supplies, contractors, emergency response personnel, and other aid for the Lower Keys in the event of declared emergencies, such as hurricanes; and WHEREAS,reliable electric service is vital to sustaining operations at EYW; and 1 WHEREAS, EYW has expressed a paramount interest in establishing power delivery redundancy and natural disaster resiliency to minimize interruptions in the operations of EYW; and WHEREAS,KEYS is the municipal electric utility serving the lower Florida Keys, and provides electricity within the City of Key West, including to EYW; and WHEREAS, EYW currently receives electricity via a single distribution feeder located to the East of EYW, and power interruption on this feeder may result in extended outages affecting EYW; and WHEREAS, the establishment of a connection between EYW and a second feeder (the "Redundant Feeder") will provide redundancy in power supply, and enable KEYS to switch between the existing feeder and the Redundant Feeder in the event of a planned or unplanned outage, with the goal of decreasing outage frequency and duration; and WHEREAS, KEYS recognizes that installation of the Redundant Feeder provides benefits to KEYS' other customers, as well as EYW; and WHEREAS,the path contemplated for the Redundant Feeder will be directly along the "Bridle Path", located immediately North of South Roosevelt Boulevard, which has cultural,historical,and ecological significance,including nature paths and salt pond observation decks for the Riggs Wildlife Refuge; and WHEREAS,the connection to the Redundant Feeder requires the installation of approximately 4,800 linear feet of underground conduit and cable in order to connect a switch on the main feeder to a point on the Redundant Feeder Southwest of the airport at the terminus of Roosevelt Boulevard; and WHEREAS, EYW is in the process of improving its facilities and has preliminarily requested KEYS to perform certain work within EYW's property in order to accommodate the improvements (the "Line Extension"); and WHEREAS, the Line Extension is not subject to this Agreement and will be addressed pursuant to separate agreement. NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants set forth herein, and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, KEYS and COUNTY enter into this Agreement to 2 govern their participation in the installation of an underground Feeder Extension as set forth herein. ARTICLE 1 —RECITALS The foregoing recitals are true and correct and are incorporated herein by reference. ARTICLE 2 —PROJECT CONCEPT AND SCOPE KEYS provides power to EYW through its electric grid via a single 13.8 kV distribution feeder, Feeder 9, which originates in the Kennedy Drive Substation. Feeder% like all distribution feeders, is susceptible to brief outages caused by faults created by events such as lightning, animals and trees. Because there is currently no redundant feeder serving EYW, equipment failure or planned equipment upgrades may cause lengthier outages lasting several hours while the feeder fault is cleared. The extension of Feeder 5, a 13.8kV distribution feeder which originates in the Thompson Street Substation, to EYW (the "Feeder Extension"), will constitute the Redundant Feeder to EYW, reducing the number and the duration of power outages. KEYS will design the Feeder Extension to run above ground from the existing Thompson Street Substation Feeder 5 (which currently terminates at the West end of South Roosevelt Boulevard), through the Bridle Path to a location nearby a to-be- installed stormwater pump, and then underground to a connection on Feeder 9 near Nancy Cherry Lane. Such design will generally conform to the depiction in the Feeder Extension Map in Exhibit "A" and Proposed Payment Schedule set forth in Exhibit`B", attached hereto and incorporated herein. KEYS will develop a detailed design for the Feeder Extension, apply and obtain permits and approvals for the necessary work,procure all materials and construction crews, and provide project management for the installation and energization of the Feeder Extension as set forth herein. KEYS estimates, but does not warrant, that the total completion time for the Feeder Extension will be approximately two years from the date of approval. The estimated completion time includes six months for planning, permitting and procurement; and eighteen months for material procurement, construction, inspection and energization. KEYS will utilize best efforts to adhere to the Proposed Payment Schedule set forth in Exhibit "B". ARTICLE 3 —INSTALLATION AND MAINTENANCE KEYS will install or cause to be installed all equipment necessary to complete the construction of the Feeder Extension, including all interconnection and controls necessary for energization and operation. KEYS will be solely responsible for future repairs and maintenance of the Feeder Extension. ARTICLE 4 —TITLE AND OWNERSHIP Title to, and complete ownership and control over the Feeder Extension, shall be vested in KEYS, and KEYS shall have the right to use the same for the purpose of service to other customers, or for other purposes in its sole discretion. ARTICLE 5—PARTY RESPONSIBILITIES 5.1 PROCUREMENT. Purchases of material, equipment, and, where KEYS determines in its sole discretion to perform any portion of the work described herein by utilizing a third-party contractor, such services, shall be procured pursuant to requests for proposals, requests for qualifications, or other procurement mechanisms consistent with KEYS' procurement policies and applicable state regulations. 5.2 EASEMENTS AND RIGHTS. KEYS, or its duly procured contractors or agents, will obtain any and all easements and all rights, permits and privileges which KEYS deems necessary or expedient for the rendering of electric service to EYW or the installation of the Feeder Extension. COUNTY shall reasonably cooperate with KEYS in the granting and obtainment of easement and/or access rights over EYW or other COUNTY property which KEYS deems necessary or expedient to effectuate the Feeder Extension. If KEYS is reasonably unable to obtain any rights, permits, and/or privileges which it deems necessary to complete the Feeder Extension, both parties shall be relieved of their obligations under this Agreement. In the event any third party requires compensation for easement rights which KEYS deems necessary, KEYS will provide written documentation to COUNTY sufficient for COUNTY to understand the required compensation, and COUNTY and KEYS shall negotiate in good faith an allocation of financial responsibility. In the event that KEYS and COUNTY do not agree to an allocation of financial responsibility within 30 days after presentation of documentation by KEYS, both parties shall be relieved of their obligations under this Agreement. 5.3 ENGINEERING AND DESIGN. KEYS, or its duly procured contractors or agents,will design the Feeder Extension, in general conformance with the conceptual drawing attached as Exhibit "A" and in compliance with all applicable regulations. The parties recognize that physical deviations from the conceptual drawing may be necessary to address physical and legal concerns 4 including but not limited to permit conditions, easements and/or rights of use, or physical constraints such as subsurface conditions. 5.4 PERMITTING. KEYS, or its duly procured contractors or agents, will obtain all necessary permits and approvals from the City of Key West, Monroe County and any other governmental entities of competent jurisdiction necessary to construct the Feeder Extension. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if KEYS is reasonably unable to obtain any such permits and/or approvals,KEYS may terminate this Agreement and shall refund to COUNTY any sums remitted by COUNTY to KEYS hereunder. 5.5 CONDUIT INSTALLATION. KEYS, or its duly procured contractors or agents, will install underground conduit sufficient to complete the Feeder Extension. 5.6 PRIMARY CABLE AND CONNECTIONS. KEYS, or its duly procured contractors or agents, will install all necessary primary cable and make necessary connections between the existing feeder and the Feeder Extension. 5.8 PROJECT MANAGEMENT. KEYS will provide construction management to ensure expeditious completion. KEYS will give due consideration to any suggestions provided by COUNTY representatives, but, with respect to construction occurring other than on EYW property, shall not be bound by such suggestions. KEYS shall accommodate reasonable requests related to construction management with respect to construction occurring on EYW property. Any additional costs incurred as a result of KEYS' accommodation of such requests shall be fully prior communicated to COUNTY, in writing, and shall be borne by COUNTY. ARTICLE 6 —PROCEEDING WITH WORK 6.1 FEEDER EXTENSION PRELIMINARY DESIGN. KEYS will commence preliminary design of the Feeder Extension under the terms herein upon COUNTY and KEYS approval of this Agreement. 6.2 FEEDER EXTENSION PHASE 1. After the preliminary design of the Feeder Extension has been completed by KEYS (at no expense to COUNTY) and approved by KEYS' General Manager & CEO and Monroe County Executive Director of Airports, KEYS will proceed to Phase 1, consisting of the categories of work set forth within that category in Exhibit "B", attached hereto and incorporated herein. KEYS will procure all third-party services it deems necessary or desirable to complete Phase 1 at KEYS' expense. 6.3 FEEDER EXTENSION PHASE 2.Upon completion of Phase 1,KEYS will proceed to Phase 2, consisting of the categories of work set forth within that category in Exhibit `B".

In the event the aggregate cost of all services and materials required to complete Phase 2, as procured by KEYS, does not exceed the Phase 2 Total Cap (without respect to environmental costs, as addressed in Article 7.3) set forth in Exhibit"B", $1,500,000, KEYS will enter into the appropriate contracts and execute Phase 2 to completion. In the event the aggregate cost of all services within Phase 2, as procured by KEYS, exceed the Phase 2 Total Cap (without respect to environmental costs, as addressed in Article 7.3), $1,500,000, KEYS will provide documentation sufficient to COUNTY to allow COUNTY to understand the aggregate cost, and KEYS and COUNTY shall negotiate in good faith an allocation of financial responsibility for costs exceeding the Phase 2 Total Cap prior to KEYS entering into the appropriate contracts. In the event that KEYS and COUNTY do not agree to an allocation of financial responsibility for costs exceeding the Phase 2 Total Cap within thirty (30) days after presentation of documentation by KEYS, both parties shall be relieved of their obligations under this Agreement. ARTICLE 7 —COSTS AND PAYMENT 7.1 GENERAL RESPONSIBILITIES FOR DEVELOPMENT AND FEEDER EXTENSION. KEYS will be responsible for all costs associated with preliminary design, the procurement process, project management, development of final design documents, drawings, blueprints, surveys, environmental review, and permitting/right of way. COUNTY will be responsible for equipment,materials, and labor associated with the conduit installation, cable installation, connection to existing feeder, site restoration, and all other costs related to such activities. 7.2 KEYS LABOR AND STOCK MATERIALS. KEYS may, at its discretion, provide labor or materials for use in the design of the Feeder Extension. Any engineering labor provided by KEYS' personnel shall be provided at no cost to COUNTY. KEYS may, at its discretion, provide labor and materials for construction, provided the provision of such labor and materials shall not cause the total cost of Phase 2 to exceed the Phase 2 Total Cap (Excluding Phase 2 Environmental) set forth in Exhibit `B". Provision by KEYS of labor and materials for construction which would cause the total cost of Phase 2 to exceed the Phase 2 Total Cap (Excluding Phase 2 Environmental) is subject to prior approval of COUNTY. Any line work/construction labor provided by KEYS and any stock materials provided by KEYS in furtherance of the completion of Phase 2 shall be billed to COUNTY at KEYS' actual and acquisition cost. Such costs shall be included within documentation provided to COUNTY as set forth in Article 6, herein, if provision of documentation is required under Article 6. 7.3 ENVIRONMENTAL COSTS. A cost of $250,000 is listed within Phase 2 amounts, but for purposes of calculations pursuant to Article 6.3 and this Article is not included within Phase 2 costs. COUNTY will be responsible for the 6 cost of any environmental actions required to be undertaken as a condition precedent to receipt of any permit or approval necessary to construct the Feeder Extension,not to exceed $250,000.00, but shall not be responsible for any remediation/mitigation costs or penalties resulting from violation by KEYS or its contractors of applicable environmental regulations or non-compliance with any permit or approval. In the event Phase II environmental costs over $250,000 are required to be incurred (not including remediation/mitigation costs arising from violation, as set forth above), KEYS will provide documentation to COUNTY sufficient for COUNTY to understand the aggregate cost prior to KEYS incurring the costs. KEYS and COUNTY shall negotiate in good faith an allocation of financial responsibility for costs exceeding $250,000. In the event that KEYS and COUNTY do not agree to an allocation of financial responsibility for costs exceeding $250,000 within 30 days after presentation of documentation by KEYS, both parties shall be relieved of their obligations under this Agreement. 7.4 APPLICATION AND PAYMENT.

COUNTY shall make payment to KEYS by wire transfer. KEYS shall have no obligation to proceed to Phase 2 until receipt of full payment under the Application for Payment for Phase 1. 7 7.5 FUTURE CONNECTIONS, REIMBURSEMENT The Parties recognize that nine other properties ("Potential Newly Fed Properties"), as set forth in Exhibit "C" attached hereto and incorporated herein, may in the future receive service primarily by use of the Redundant Feeder. In the event the owner of a Potential Newly Fed Property establishes electric service as of a date which is within thirty-five (35) years after the Effective Date of this Agreement, and such use reasonably requires primary use of the Redundant Feeder, KEYS will charge such owner a share of the total cost paid to KEYS by COUNTY pursuant to this Agreement which is attributable to materials and installation cost of underground service from the sectionalizer cabinet near 2601 S. Roosevelt Boulevard to the property line of 3491 S. Roosevelt Boulevard. KEYS will bill each such Potential Newly Fed Property, as a condition precedent to the establishment of electric service to such property, one tenth (1/10) of such cost. Upon receipt of such funds, KEYS shall be entitled to retain 15% as an administrative fee and, within thirty (30) days, remit to COUNTY the remaining 85% of the amount actually received.Upon receipt by COUNTY, said funds shall be deposited in the EYW airport enterprise fund. KEYS shall have no obligation to collect any sums from the owner of any Potential Newly Fed Property who establishes electric service reasonably requiring primary use of the Redundant Feeder as of a date which is more than thirty-five (35) years from the Effective Date. COUNTY acknowledges that there is no guaranty that any Potential Newly Fed Property will establish electric service under these terms, and thereby no guaranty that any reimbursement will be remitted. COUNTY further acknowledges and agrees that any right to reimbursements is not personal to COUNTY but rather will automatically run with title to the property located at 3491 S. Roosevelt Boulevard. KEYS will remit any amount required to be remitted pursuant to this Section 7.5 to the record owner of 3491 S. Roosevelt Boulevard as of the date the payment is received by KEYS.
