Annual steam consumption by the BWL customers is approximately 1,000,000 Mlb/hr of steam, with a peak demand of approximately 300,000 pounds per hour. The BWL supplies steam from its Moores Park facility, which consists of four coal fired boilers. Three of the units entered service in 1955 and the fourth went into service in 1967. 2.1.2 The Reo Town Plant will replace the steam production capability of the current Moores Park facility with a new natural gas combined cycle cogeneration facility (the "Plant"). The Plant will consist of two (2) combined cycle sets, each set consisting of a combustion turbine/generator of approximately 44-47 MW, a heat recovery steam generator, and a steam turbine/generator of approximately 10MW giving the Plant a nominal output of 108-114MW. The Plant will also include a single auxiliary boiler to provide backup steam service. The electric plant will include a substation ("Substation") interconnected to the BWL's 138 kV system. The Plant will include a solar panel array and wind turbines on the facility's roof to provide renewable energy to miscellaneous building elements. 2.1.3 The Project includes all site infrastructure ("Infrastructure") and improvements for all areas within the BWL's Property Limits including all services to within 5' of the Depot facility. 2.1.4 The Project will also include a 40,000 square foot office complex ("Office") integrated into the combined heat and power facility for multiple departmental offices. 2.1.5 The BWL's Program includes the restoration and preservation of the historic Grand Trunk Western Railroad Depot (the "Depot") constructed in 1904, located on the propeity adjacent to where the cogeneration facility will be constructed. Located on Reo Town's southern boundaiy, the Depot is on both the State of Michigan and the National Registers of Historic Sites. The structure is in deteriorating condition and has been closed to the public for several years. 2.1.6 The BWL's facilities consistently rate high in industry reliability and availability statistics. This reliability enables the BWL to efficiently deliver utility services and provide competitive economic development advantages to the community. The continued ability to provide reliability and affordability while meeting its environmental obligations is the basis for this Project.

EXHIBIT A PROJECT C R I T E R I A 1. Required Operating Characteristics This project is designed to replace two major production assets in the BWL's central steam and electric operations. The most immediate replacement will be the Moores Park steam production plant. Additionally, the new plant will eventually replace electric capacity and energy production from Eckert electric generating units 1, 2, and 3. Steam Production Requirements The Owner has maintained a central steam supply system for 91 years. The central steam system consists of the Moores Park steam production facility and a distribution system comprised of two geographical sections. The Moores Park steam production facility is located adjacent to the Eckert electric generating plant. Moores Park consists of four stoker bottom, coal fired boilers that produce steam, but not electricity. The steam produced at Moores Park is used to supply heat and hot water to buildings in downtown Lansing. The distribution system's first geographical area, the downtown central steam loop, consists of 12 miles of distribution mains including a 12 inch and an 18 inch high pressure transmission main that encompass an 80 square block area. This section also feeds a major industrial customer through two dedicated 12 inch high pressure mains. The second section, supplied by a 20 inch high pressure main, served three major industrial facilities, which are now all closed. This section has been capped but remains in place for possible future development of the former industrial sites. Currently, the BWL has approximately 225 steam customers in its downtown central steam loop, with maximum demand of approximately 300,000 pounds of steam per hour and 1,000,000 Mlbs of steam consumption per year. Steam sales declined sharply from 2005 to 2008 with the retirement of major industrial facilities in Lansing. Sales have stabilized since 2008 and are expected to grow veiy modestly with the addition of new customers.

32

The BWL's annual steam load duration curves are shown below:

Hour of Year
FY 2004 FY 2005 FY 2006 FY 2007 FY 2008 FY 2009

Maximum send out to our customers is assumed to be 300,000 lbs/hr although the load duration curves show that send out may exceed this for approximately 12 hours. It is assumed that the equipment can be over-fired to meet the peak demand. Total send out steam for the composite years is about 989,000 Mlb-hours. Actual steam production is the sum of send out and internal uses. Internal uses include steam for deaeration, feedwater heating and blowdown. Send out production conditions are 275 psig at 650F. Currently, steam to our downtown customers is de-superheated from boiler outlet temperature, 600 to 650F, to 450F because of steam transmission line requirements. Since steam must be produced locally, the plant should be designed to meet maximum load with the largest steam producer out of service. Thus the system should consist of three half sized units each capable of producing at least 150,000 lb/hr for a total capacity of 450,000 lb/hr. This could be any combination of gas fired boilers and gas turbines with heat recovery steam generators.

33

Electric Generation Requirements The BWL currently has a maximum retail demand of approximately 500 MW and retail sales of approximately 2,200,000 MWh's annually. The BWL also sells electric energy and capacity to wholesale customers. Annual sales are approximately 1,100,000 MWh's annually. All of the BWL's generating units are base load coal fired units, six at the Eckert plant and one unit at Erickson. Three of the Eckert units are relatively small, each with 40 MW gross capacity, and lack reheat cycles and are, therefore, comparatively inefficient. The BWL anticipates retiring these units by the end of 2015 due to their relative inefficiency, high fixed operation and maintenance costs, and projected environmental retrofit costs. The BWL also has a power purchase agreement for approximately 150 MW of capacity and energy from Detroit Edison's Belle River generating plant. The anticipated electric generation configuration consists of two combustion turbines (CT), each paired with a heat recovery steam generator (HRSG), and a steam turbine, with condenser. The steam turbine will be used when excess steam is available due to low central steam demand conditions. This will allow quicker steam load following and increase electric generation and capacity. In order to meet peak electric needs and qualify to provide ancillaiy seivices, each combined cycle combination may require a bypass stack for combustion turbine electricity production only. Otherwise, it is anticipated that the combined cycle operation, making full use of the steam turbines, will occur for the months of June through September. Actual combined cycle operation will depend on market and demand conditions. The EA for this project must be able to design the Reo Town Plant to provide the most beneficial commercial operation for the Owner over the life cycle of the facility. The Project will be a complete, operable and maintainable facility. 2. Pennit Requirements This Project must adhere to all pennit requirements as specified in MDNRE Air Permit to Install #149-10 as approved on December 7, 2010. 3. Local Building Authority The Project is within the jurisdiction of the City of Lansing, and must adhere to all local building codes and requirements of the Authority. 4. Office Building Requirements This Project must incorporate general office space for BWL employees not related to plant operations. Programming and specific office uses have not yet been developed, but are anticipated to require approximately 40,000 gross square feet. This office space does not include office or program space required for plant operations or maintenance functions.

34

5. Building Architecture The building is intended to fit in well with the Reo Town district and the neighboring areas. The building will be constracted with durable exterior materials similar to the other BWL owned properties in the downtown Lansing area. Long term life cycle costs for building exterior materials are important. Stone, brick, precast concrete, glass and metal or other suitable durable materials will be considered. The building shall be aesthetically pleasing and functionally appropriate. 6. Site and Infrastructure Description This Project must include fully adequate site utility and infrastructure improvements at the Project Site, including steam delivery, water service, natural gas service connection, storm and sanitaiy sewer systems, telecommunications infrastructure, and connections as required. 7. Parking The Project Site utility and infrastructure improvements must be properly coordinated with off-site improvements provided by the BWL and services provided with utilities. A minimum of 120 on-site surface parking spaces for employees, in addition to the daily or periodic use of plant operations and maintenance personnel. Accommodation must also be made for select customer service functions to be accessed in the general office building. Up to 25 additional interior/covered parking spaces with direct access to the office building. No surface parking areas are desired west ofthe building. The depot site must accommodate additional adjacent parking sufficient to meet zoning requirements and serve the intended use of the building as a public meeting space and board room. 8. BWL Design and Construction Standards The BWL will provide select design and construction standards for incorporation into the Project. The E/A shall be responsible for designing in accordance with these requirements or identify suitable deviations to these standards for approval by the BWL. 9. Sustainability Criteria Installation of a solar panel array and wind turbines on the Plant facility roof to provide renewable energy to building components at the Site. 10. LEED Certification (if, and to the extent, indicated in Exhibit O attached hereto)

CLARIFICATION TO SPECIFIC QUESTIONS Pursuant to your letter dated February 10, 2011 requesting answers to specific questions, Burns and Roe has provided responses to the seven (7) items requiring clarification below.
1. You propose an accelerated engineering schedule. Please clarify how this correlates to the procurement of major equipment, and the pre-requisite information required for structural design elements of the project. Does your accelerated schedule result in earlier structural design and construction activities? How does your accelerated schedule affect the overall timeline of the project?

Burns and Roe Response: The proposed accelerated schedule is offered with the goal of accelerating the site mobilization date to August 1 2011. This acceleration will result in an earlier commercial operation date. Activities that occur during the initial stages of construction are site preparation and drainage, piling, fire water loop installation, administration and warehouse building foundations. Burns and Roe has recently completed foundation designs for similar GTs and will use this design information as the basis of moving forward. The overall timeline of the project will be then shortened by one month. Burns and Roe will be prepared to discuss our suggest schedule modifications in detail during our meeting on February 16, 2010.

Total Plant E P C Cost

153

189

Likely EPC cost with Plant design as specified in RFP: $170 to $180M USD excluding owner's costs, independent/owner's engineer and financing costs. Plant Concepts/Arrangement/Cycle Decisions that have a major impact on Total Installed Cost: GT Technology (GE LM6000PC Sprint or Siemens SGT800) Two l x l combined cycle trains versus a single 2 x 1 combined cycle train Simple cycle bypass stacks for GT operation without steam cycle operation HRSG technology employed. Single pressure or two pressure. Requires value engineering assessment that considers plant heat rate, operational flexibility and capital cost. Location of cooling towers (grade or elevated) Level of sound attenuation and or aesthetic screening employed

It is clear that there are many factors that influence the overall total cost of the plant; however, the above represent a reasonable and achievable range. The lower range of total cost can be achieved; however there will be sacrifices in overall plant heat rate and operational flexibility. During the initial stages of the project, an overall assessment weighing factors such as heat rate and operational flexibility against total installed costs will be completed in order to arrive at the optimal solution.

Bums and Roe Follow Up Discussions Via Conference Call 2/23/11 Participants: Dick Peffley Pete Kramer John Spears Peter Kawa Frank DiGiacomo Mike Murphy The following questions were asked of Bums and Roe with the answers as noted. 1. Independent Cost Estimates- Proposal states you will support CM, follow up information says 250 hours, interview you said you can do full estimates. What are you willing to provide as a basic service? a. B&R understands intent of independent and parallel estimate to be used for reconciliation with CM's budget and eventual GMP. B&R will work with the BWL and Owner's Representative to provide Estimating services as requested in the RFP as part of their basic services price. 2. Questions related to Insurance coverage and commercial terms and conditions will need to be discussed should B&R be selected. With whom would those conversations take place? Who is authorized to make decisions on contractual matters? Discussion will primarily focus on insurance and limitation of liability language. Prior to that discussion, we would like to request a viewing of your professional liability policy including all endorsements and exclusions. a. Peter Kawa will serve as point of contact for contract and insurance business terms and will engage legal or insurance representatives i f necessary. B&R will request permission to share insurance policy endorsements with BWL. Follow up will be required on this item. 3. We received your updated Michigan Registration, are there any other licenses required to provide engineering sei-vices in Michigan? a. Some PE's will need reciprocity in Michigan. These requirements will be resolved immediately upon award. 4. Discuss the specific availability of proposed team members, Frank specifically. What are their current obligations, and how committed are they able to be to this project? a. B&R agrees that the team as presented will be committed to the project. Lansing will be the primaiy responsibility for Frank. California responsibilities are limited. Project in Jersey winding up in two months. Staff is prepared to begin immediately. Page| 1

5. Confirm major equipment procurement sequence. CTG, HRSG, STG. And Timing. You included a schedule for this, but we want to understand your approach to this procurement process better. a. B&R understand that procurement follows engineering and will properly sequence the specification and bidding of major equipment as necessary. B&R does not recommend combining CTG and HRSG packages. 6. Discuss how much risk is involved for the owner to release early foundations for major equipment prior to full certification of shop drawings? a. Limited risk for BWL, maybe a little more conservative in design but schedule impact makes up for that. Recent design work on other projects will mitigate this risk. 7. Confirm your role should the Owner decide to obtain LEED Certification for the Plant? Have you ever designed a LEED Certified Plant building? a. Yes. B&R includes the LEED base assessment for the project in their basic sei-vices as noted in the Proposal. Should the BWL desire LEED certification, B&R will provide all technical specifications and requirements in their basic services required to adhere to the agreed upon certification level. No fees or associated costs with the administration of the LEED certification process are included in B&R's proposal. 8. Discuss your interaction with the BWL during the design phase. Face to face meetings, conf calls, video/webcast reviews, frequency of interactions? a. B&R will conduct monthly meetings face to face. Weekly meetings to keep up on action items will be via conference call or video conference. Kickoff meeting will be held with entire team in Lansing to establish these procedures, and to begin design work. Probably will take more than one day. Possibly include breakout sessions to engage discipline specialists from the BWL. 9. Specifically who from your proposed team would be the on-site professionals during construction? a, B&R will designate engineers who work on the design ofthe project to serve on site during construction. Will vary based on phase ofthe project. Do not know specific names. 10. Do you provide a Division of Responsibility Matrix or some type of document identifying specific responsibilities between the Owner, Engineer, Contractor, or Major Equip Vendors related to E, P, C? a. Yes. 11. What additional GeoTech Services are required in the first couple weeks as noted on your proposal?

Page|2

a. More borings to confirm critical areas. B&R will provide boring plan to BWL once plant arrangement is established. Will require electric resistivity testing. Won't be required with the first couple weeks, but will be required as soon as arrangement is locked in. 12. What licenses/workstations have you included for the Owner's use in viewing your work product? Are additional licenses going to be required for the Constmction Manager or Trade Contractors? a. B&R will load program on owner's stations. B&R will provide sufficient licenses to satisfy the reasonable needs of the project. 13. Is your PEP an internal or external document? Does the Owner view this? a. Can see most of it, internal cost accounting not shared. All project controls shared. 14. We assume all procurement and expediting services as outlined in your proposal are included in your base proposal other than those listed as additional services. Please confirm. a. Yes. 15. What i f actual major equipment packages equal 11 or 15? Will that be a basis for change to your costs? You state you have included 13 in the contract revision, but 14 on your response to earlier questions. We have not yet finalized that number. a. B&R agrees to provide services for major equipment procurement as requested in the RFP. 16. What modifications would you require or request to the Milestone Schedule prior to inclusion as a contract requirement. You provided an edited copy, but you referenced that some modifications would be made in another section ofthe RFP. Please confirm. a. No intent to modify the milestone schedule other than what is included in the Proposal and Interview documents. B&R confirmed that the schedule as they see it is feasible and appropriate for a project of this scale. 17. Discuss approach to design of Pipe Hangars and Supports. a. Common practice is to provide performance specifications for pipe hangars as outlined in the B&R Proposal and is less expensive than having the Engineer do it. There are sufficient vendors qualified to do this work and B&R is confident the approach is appropriate. 18. Discuss Performance specifications for the following items. a. HVAC - B&R had included Performance specifications for plant offices and typical HVAC design work in the plant. The office building was intended to be designed under Studio Intrigue. BWL stated that this was not the intent of the RFP and wants a fully designed facility for all building systems. BWL also stated our concern over the qualifications for Page | 3

the design of these systems. Local engineers would be preferred. B&R confirmed that they have included sufficient amounts in their bid to provide these design services as intended in the RFP and will work with the BWL to engage a qualified local Engineering firm to do this work under their basic services, b. Switchyard - B&R recommends performance specifications for the switch yard work and has based their proposal on that concept. Foundations and structures are to be by B&R. BWL understands and accepts this approach. 19. How prescriptive is the Commissioning and Project Start up Specification. You include it as a performance specification. Discuss your role in commissioning and startup. a. B&R agrees to provide all commissioning and start up sei-vices as outlined in the RFP. They will specify all requirements and oversee the process with field representatives. 20. You provided an estimate of time included in your proposal for On Site Professionals during construction. Would you be open to having this service be T & M not to exceed your quoted amount? Could the same apply to Start Up support and training? a. B&R is very open to this concept and agrees to provide those sei-vices as a reimbursable NTE price. 21. Who actually leads/conducts the Owner Training for B&R? a. Alan Dempsey, B&R will provide resume for BWL to review. 22. When do you propose to conduct The Value Management Session? a. As early in the process as possible. Should engage the CM first. 23. Discuss how your proposed sei-vices may be affected should the final site utilization plan result in a single larger building housing the Plant and Offices together? How would that potentially change the scope of work of your A/E firm or their MEP Consultant? a. B&R states that the building project could be simplified as one building and some services could be combined to be more efficient. Discussions regarding HVAC systems and BWL desires for having the EA responsible for design of all building systems may offset some savings, but B&R is confident that their base proposal is sufficient to account for either scenario. 24. Discuss willingness to utilize a local engineering firm for development of site infrastructure and utilities with tie-in to existing or proposed offsite utilities? How would B&R propose to incorporate such sei-vices? a. B&R is open to the engagement of a local Civil, Mechanical, and Electrical firm and will work with the BWL to engage such a firm. Based

Page|4

on the local firm's ability to provide a reasonable proposal, this should not result in modification to the B&R proposal. 25. In section 10.5 ofthe RFP, you did not state what conditions would result in B&R requesting additional compensation. Please describe your opinion of what would be considered a change in scope. a. Added scope clearly not in project. b. Significant schedule delay caused by the Owner. c. Permit modifications resulting in changed design d. No changes for reasonable scope selections such as inlet cooling, or other typical design options related to the general project description and pmdent utility design practices. 26. Are certain renderings or plant layouts included in your basic services? What do you envision being charged against the reimbursable line item for these deliverables? a. Base scope includes final renderings for one option. Reimbursable amount is for additional options beyond what is typical in the design process. 27. We stated that no other design professionals would be retained for this project, other than for the specific items we excluded in the RFP. Can you confirm that any and all design and/or consulting services required to provide a complete and fully functional plant are included in your lump sum proposal? a. B&R understands the RFP and the BWL's intent and has sufficient resources to comply with this requirement. 28. What other costs might you have included in your proposal that you feel are unnecessary or may better be handled as a T & M reimbursable item? After our discussions with you are there any other modifications you would like to make to your proposal to better reflect the needs of the BWL. a. None at this time.
