Option to Propose Operator-Owned Capital Improvements Sample Clauses

Option to Propose Operator-Owned Capital Improvements. Operator may from time to time during the Term propose to PREB certain Capital Improvements that would be made, owned and funded by Operator or its designated Affiliate; provided, however, that (i) the costs and expenses relating to any such Capital Improvements shall not be considered, or otherwise treated as, T&D Pass Through Expenditures and (ii) no such Capital Improvements shall be made that would in any manner jeopardize the exclusion from gross income of interest on Owner’s or its Affiliates’ obligations under the Internal Revenue Code. Operator shall provide PREB, with copy to Administrator, with a description of the Operator-owned Capital Improvement in sufficient detail to enable PREB to make a fully informed assessment and analysis thereof; provided that any such proposal shall contemplate Operator having the opportunity to earn a reasonable rate of return thereon consistent with the returns permitted to be earned by companies operating in the United States electric transmission and distribution business on similar investments. Any such proposed Capital Improvement shall be subject to review, and approval or rejection, by PREB in accordance with Applicable Law and shall be accompanied by an opinion of tax counsel to Administrator providing that such Capital Improvement shall not adversely affect the exclusion from gross income of interest on obligations of Owner, its Affiliates or another Governmental Body for federal income tax purposes under the Internal Revenue Code. In reviewing any such proposed Capital Improvement, PREB may request additional information or reports from Operator, and may require that any such proposed Capital Improvement be presented as part of a rate review proceeding. The inclusion of the provisions of this Section 5.5(d) (Capital Improvements – Option to Propose Operator-Owned Capital Improvements) shall in no way constitute an obligation by any of PREB, Owner or Administrator to agree to or pursue any Operator-owned Capital Improvement or require Owner or Administrator to pay for or reimburse the cost or expenses of pursuing any proposed Operator-owned Capital Improvement or an obligation of Operator to propose or pursue any Operator-owned Capital Improvement.
