Technical Interfaces 3.2.6.1 The Interconnection facilities provided by each Party shall be formatted using either Alternate Mark Inversion (AMI) line code with Superframe format framing or Bipolar 8-Zero Substitution with Extended Superframe (B8ZS ESF) format framing or any mutually agreeable line coding and framing.
Interface A defined set of transmission facilities that separate Load Zones and that separate the NYCA from adjacent Control Areas. Investor-Owned Transmission Owners. A Transmission Owner that is owned by private investors. At the present time these include: Central ▇▇▇▇▇▇ Gas & Electric Corporation, Consolidated Edison Company of New York, Inc., New York State Electric & Gas Corporation, Niagara Mohawk Power Corporation, Orange and Rockland Utilities, Inc., and Rochester Gas and Electric Corporation.
Provisional Interconnection Service Prior to the completion of the Large Facility Interconnection Procedures and prior to completion of requisite Attachment Facilities, Distribution Upgrades, System Upgrade Facilities, System Distribution Upgrades, or System Protection Facilities, the Developer may request an evaluation for Provisional Interconnection Service. NYISO, in conjunction with the Connecting Transmission Owner, shall determine, through available studies or additional studies as necessary, whether stability, short circuit, thermal, and/or voltage issues would arise if the Developer interconnects without modifications to the Large Generating Facility or the New York State Transmission System (or Distribution System as applicable). NYISO, in conjunction with the Connecting Transmission Owner, shall determine whether any Attachment Facilities, Distribution Upgrades, System Upgrade Facilities, System Deliverability Upgrades, or System Protection Facilities, which are necessary to meet Applicable Laws and Regulations, Applicable Reliability Standards, and Good Utility Practice, are in place prior to the commencement of interconnection service from the Large Facility. Where available studies indicate that the Attachment Facilities, Distribution Upgrades, System Upgrade Facilities, System Deliverability Upgrades, or System Protection Facilities are required for the interconnection of a new, modified and/or expanded Large Facility but such facilities are not currently in place, NYISO, in conjunction with the Connecting Transmission Owner, will perform a study, at the Developer’s expense, to confirm the facilities that are required for Provisional Interconnection Service. The maximum permissible output of the Large Facility in the Provisional Large Facility Interconnection Agreement shall be studied, at the Developer’s expense, and updated annually. The NYISO shall issue the study’s findings in writing to the Developer and Connecting Transmission Owner(s). Following a determination by NYISO, in conjunction with the Connecting Transmission Owner, that the Developer may reliably provide Provisional Interconnection Service, NYISO shall tender to the Developer and Connecting Transmission Owner, a Provisional Large Facility Interconnection Agreement. NYISO, Developer, and Connecting Transmission Owner may execute the Provisional Large Facility Interconnection Agreement, or the Developer may request the filing of an unexecuted Provisional Large Facility Interconnection Agreement with the Commission. The Developer shall assume all risk and liabilities with respect to changes between the Provisional Large Facility Interconnection Agreement and the Large Generator Interconnection Agreement, including changes in output limits and the cost responsibilities for the Attachment Facilities, System Upgrade Facilities, System Deliverability Upgrades, and/or System Protection Facilities.
Interfaces GTE provides the CLECs with choices for access to OSS pre-ordering, ordering, maintenance and repair systems. Availability of the interfaces is fundamental to the CLEC being able to effectively do business with GTE. Additionally, in many instances, CLEC personnel must work with the service personnel of GTE. Measurements in this category assess the availability to the CLECs of systems and personnel at GTE work centers.
Research Funding (a) During each Collaboration Term and in connection with any wind-down activities contemplated by Section 13.4. Gilead shall reimburse Hookipa for all Out-of-Pocket Costs actually incurred (with no markup) by Hookipa in connection with the applicable Program, to the extent specifically contemplated in the applicable Research Plan and in accordance with the applicable Research Budget. Gilead shall reimburse the undisputed amount of such Out-of-Pocket Costs incurred in a [***] within [***] days after receipt from Hookipa of an invoice therefor issued within [***] days after the end of such [***]. (b) During each Collaboration Term for a Program, Gilead shall reimburse Hookipa at the FTE Rate for the costs of any FTEs (not to exceed the number of FTEs specified in the applicable Research Plan for such Program for any period without first obtaining, in each case, Gilead’s prior written consent) actually performing activities allocated to Hookipa under such Research Plan. Hookipa shall provide to Gilead, within [***] days after the end of each [***] during each Collaboration Term, a report indicating the number of FTEs actually provided by Hookipa with respect to each Program during such [***], Hookipa shall use standard industry systems and processes to record the number of hours and FTEs actually applied to each Program, which systems and processes shall be consistently and equitably applied to all Hookipa research programs with Third Parties. Gilead shall reimburse Hookipa the undisputed amount for such FTE costs incurred in a [***] within [***] days after receipt from Hookipa of an invoice therefor issued within [***] days after the end of each [***]. (c) For clarity, Gilead shall not be obligated to reimburse Hookipa for any costs or expenses incurred by Hookipa in the course of its activities under the Programs, other than: (i) those costs and expenses expressly identified in this Section 9.6 or elsewhere in this Agreement; (ii) reimbursement for the supply of Licensed Products to Gilead in accordance with the terms of any supply agreement entered into by the Parties pursuant to Section 7.2; or (iii) any other costs and expenses approved by Gilead in writing in advance.
