(i) 55.7% of actual Qualifying Construction Costs between the VCM 19 Forecast plus an additional $800 million and the VCM 19 Forecast plus an additional $1.6 billion; and the other Participating Parties will share 44.3% of such costs on a pro rata basis according to their Ownership Interests.

(i) In order to make an effective tender of its interest, a Participating Party must provide GPC with evidence that each lender, off taker or other party with an interest in a Participating Party’s interest in the Additional Units has approved the conveyance of such interest in the Additional Units to GPC under this Section 7.11(c) and has agreed to release any liens relating to the interest to be conveyed to GPC.
(ii) The Ownership Interest to be conveyed from the tendering Participating Party to GPC shall be calculated based on each Participating Party’s share of Cost of Construction paid at the Commercial Operation date of Unit 4 divided by the total Cost of Construction paid by all Participating Parties at Commercial Operation date of Unit 4. In order to reconcile Ownership Interests to total Cost of Construction paid by each Participating Party, such interests shall be conveyed by the tendering Participating Party free and clear of all encumbrances or clouds on title, within 180 days of the Commercial Operation date of Unit 4. For purposes of the calculation to be done to determine the Ownership Interest to be conveyed the actual Cost of Construction of the Additional Units as of the Commercial Operation Date

The applicable purchase price for a non-GPC Participating Party’s PTCs earned in any calendar month shall be determined as follows:
(i) If the total Cost of Construction (as that term is defined in the Additional Units Ownership Agreement) for both Additional Units, as determined at Commercial Operation of the second Additional Unit to reach Commercial Operation, is:
(1) less than or equal to the VCM 19 Forecast (as that term is defined in the Additional Units Ownership Agreement), the purchase price will be the amount equal to the product of the aggregate value of the PTCs earned in such month to be sold to GPC as determined under Section 45J(a) of the Internal Revenue Code (the “Monthly PTC Value”) multiplied by 0.88.
(2) greater than the VCM 19 Forecast and less than the VCM 19 Forecast plus $300,000,000, the purchase price will be the amount equal to the Monthly PTC Value multiplied by 0.91.
(3) greater than or equal to VCM 19 Forecast plus $300,000,000 and less than VCM 19 Forecast plus $600,000,000, the purchase price will be the amount equal to the Monthly PTC Value multiplied by 0.95.

Following Commercial Operation of the second Additional Unit, GPC and each Participating Party selling PTCs pursuant to this Section 4.7(a)(ii) shall determine the actual total Cost of Construction (as that term is defined in the Additional Units Ownership
8
CONFIDENTIAL
Agreement) for both Additional Units and, if such total actual Cost of Construction differs from any Interim Completion Estimate, GPC shall pay to any selling Participating Party, or any selling Participating Party shall pay to GPC, as applicable, the difference between any purchase price for PTCs determined based on an Interim Completion Estimate under this Section 4.7(a)(ii) and the amount that the purchase price for such PTCs would have been had it been calculated based on the actual total Cost of Construction for both Additional Units.
(b) All purchases by GPC of PTCs under this Section 4.7 shall occur during the calendar month following the calendar month in which such PTCs were earned.
(c) As a condition to any obligation by GPC to purchase and make payment for a Participating Party’s PTCs under this Section 4.7 in any given month, the Participating Party shall provide GPC with (i) documentation evidencing a transfer by such Participating Party to GPC (effective upon payment) of all right, interest and entitlement to such PTCs free of all liens and other encumbrances, and (ii) an affidavit by an officer of the Participating Party warranting that the Participating Party has not transferred any right, interest or entitlement to such PTCs to any other Person and the transfer to GPC all of the Participating Party’s right, interest and entitlement as to such PTCs is free and clear of all liens and without breach of any agreements. The actual transfer of PTCs from the Participating Party to GPC shall be effected as provided in Section 45J of the Internal Revenue Code and all applicable regulations and guidance issued by the Internal Revenue Service or the Department of the Treasury with respect thereto as may be in effect from time to time.
(d) With respect to any transfer of PTCs by a Participating Party to GPC contemplated by this Section 4.7, GPC and the Participating Party shall cooperate and consult with each other regarding, and take all actions required under Section 45J of the Internal Revenue Code and all applicable regulations and guidance issued by the Internal Revenue Service or the Department of the Treasury with respect thereto as may be in effect from time to time, for the Participating Party to timely elect the application of Section 45J(e) of the Internal Revenue Code with respect to such PTCs so that GPC shall be treated as the taxpayer with respect to such PTCs in accordance with Section 45J(e) of the Internal Revenue Code.
(e) For purposes of this Section 4.7, each non-GPC Participating Party represents and warrants that it is a “qualified public entity” under Section 45J(e)(2)(A) of the Internal Revenue Code, and GPC represents and warrants that it is an “eligible project partner” under Section 45J(e)(2)(B) of the Internal Revenue Code.
(f) GPC’s obligation under this Section 4.7 will only apply to MEAG Power SPVJ, LLC’s PTCs remaining following any GPC purchases of MEAG Power SPVJ, LLC’s PTCs under a separate agreement between GPC and MEAG.
