Extension and all such costs are known and the difference shall be either refunded to or collected
from A vimor without interest.
A vimor will be responsible for funding all System Extension facilities required to serve
the Project listed below:
Approximately 30 500 feet of 16-inch transmission main
intermediate booster station
600 000 gallon storage reservoir
Associated communications and control equipment
Land, easements, inspection project management
appurtenances
and all other required
Avimor s total cost of construction and installation of the said System Extension as
described above is estimated to be $6 308 805.00.
The parties understand and agree that of the approximately 30 500 feet of transmission
water main line extension to and within the Project, approximately 18 000 feet will be classified
as "on-site main , and approximately 12 500 feet will be classified as "off-site main . This
delineation between on-site and off-site main is as shown on the attached Exhibit A.
At the request of the Company, the intermediate booster station will be oversized and so

cost of the over sizing as outlined in Paragraph 9 below.
The Company and A vimor have agreed to use RS Means Heavy Construction Cost - 2006
(20th edition) to estimate the over sizing cost for the booster station. The over sizing has been
estimated using RS Means data as shown on Exhibit D - Plant Account Summary. After the

construction cost and the methodologies described in Exhibit D for the booster station.
All costs for the construction of the aforesaid on-site main, booster station (less the cost
of over sizing), storage reservoir, and associated facilities, including the Company s direct
engineering, inspection, accounting, legal, and administrative costs, charged to these portions of
the System Extension, shall be paid for by Avimor, and shall be recorded on the Company

books as an advance in aid of construction. These actual costs shall be referred to as the
advanced cost of the System Extension

including the Company s direct engineering, inspection, accounting, legal, and administrative
costs charged to these portions of the System Extension, shall be paid for by Avimor, and shall

including the Company s direct engineering, inspection, accounting, legal, and administrative
costs charged to the System Extension, as referenced in Paragraph 5 above, in addition to the
construction cost, in lieu of paying the Company s standard construction overheads on these
facilities.
7. Source of Supply for the Project.The Company shall provide from existing facilities
the required source of supply capacity for the Project, which has been estimated by Avimor

parties anticipate that additional source of supply capacity will be required for development in
Spring Valley Ranch and other areas outside of the Project that are within the Company
Service Area expansion as shown on Exhibit E.
The Company shall supply source water for future A vimor developments outside the
Project but within the Company s Service Area expansion as shown on Exhibit E, all subject to
approval by the Idaho Public Utilities Commission. If, because of the absence of economically

owned by A vimor, A vimor shall, without cost or expense to the Company, cause the owners of
property on which the water facilities reside to execute any and all deeds and/or easements
required by the water facilities in favor of the Company.
Refunds.The Company will make a one-time refund to A vimor per each new customer
served by the System Extension, the amount of which shall be determined in accordance with the
table set forth in Exhibit G, attached hereto and incorporated herein by reference. The refund
amount will be based upon the actual annual revenue received by the Company from the
customer for water utility service as determined by using the most recent twelve months of
Exhibit 1
billing data, after the customer which is the subject of the calculation, has received permanent
water utility service from the Company for a period of twenty-four (24) consecutive months.
The lots eligible for refund shall include all lots within the Project as well as areas
adjacent to the Project for which new customers are connected that are directly served by the
System Extension up to the expiration date ofthis Agreement. New customer shall be defined as
any permanently installed United Water meter (whether residential, commercial, or irrigation
related). The geographic areas capable of being directly served by the System Extension for
which refunds are available are shown on attached Exhibit H. New lots or customers in this
geographic area outside of the Project that are subject to any other refundable agreement with the
Company shall not be eligible for refunds under this Agreement.
The average annual consumption per customer is estimated to be 154 hundred cubic feet
(cd) which results in a refund of $600 as per Exhibit G. The Company agrees to refund to
A vimor 80% of this amount ($480) as new customers are connected. These payments will occur
on a quarterly basis beginning with the first customer connected to the System Extension.
Quarterly payments shall be made no later than 30 days following the end of each calendar
quarter. Final adjustment to the refund amount will occur at the conclusion of the 12 months of
billing data, as referenced above, with the Company paying A vimor the balance of the refund
amount above $480 or A vimor paying the Company the difference if the final refund amount is
less than $480. No refunds will be owed on account of any new customer receiving service from
the System Extension after the expiration of this Agreement as provided in Paragraph 17 below.
The total aggregate refund amount shall not exceed the final "advanced cost of the System
Extension" funded by A vimor.
In addition, the Company shall reimburse A vimor for the actual over sizing cost of the
intermediate booster station within 45 days after the System Extension is conveyed to the
Company as described in Paragraph 11 below.
10. Off-Site Main Reimbursement.The parties understand and agree that the cost of the
12-inch portion of the "off-site main " referenced in Paragraph 5 , and funded by Avimor, will be
subject to repayment to Avimor in accordance with the Company s current standard method for
off-site reimbursements by latecomers as outlined below.
An applicant for service for which a main and/or service lateral (including laterals to a
fire hydrant(s)) will be directly connected to said "off-site main " within the term of this
Agreement, shall deposit with the Company one half the cost per front foot of the "off-site
water main times the applicant's total front footage. The cost per front foot shall be the actual
cost of the "off-site" water main, divided by the total serviceable footage. The Company will
forward this deposit to A vimor without interest within thirty (30) days of receipt. The total
monies thus deposited with the Company and forwarded to A vimor shall not exceed the total
amount of the "contributed cost of the System Extension . All future applicants for main and/or
service lateral connections to the "off-site main" after the term of this Agreement expires shall
not be subject to the aforesaid deposit, nor shall A vimor be entitled to or receive any
reimbursement after the expiration ofthis Agreement.

RE:Avimor Development Booster Station Upsizing Fee, Revised
JOB NO.: 285.0180
Tim:
I recommend a Broken Horn Booster Station upsizing fee for the Avimor Development
of $63 000.. This is a probable cost to provide oversjzlng for aquifer storage and
recovery flows associated with the Sandy Hill Aquifer as well as transmission back
toward North Boise from Ayimor. Probable cost analysis is summarized as follows:
Item Unit # Units Unit Cost Total
Spool, 12"$50 $350
Tee, 12"X12"$1,450 $1,450
Gate Valve, 12"$1.525 $3,050
PRVs with Controls, 12"$12,750 $25 500
Spool, 16" $75 050
Tee, 16"X12"$1,800 800
0 Elbow, 16"500 500
Building Space for PRVs only 174 $100 $17,400
Mobilization/Contingency (15%)$8,250 $8.250
Total $63,3-50
Assumptions in the analysis are summarized below:

1) Current construction cost data for all fittings, gate valves, and spools was based on
the current version of 2006 RSMeans Heavy Construction Cost Data, Cost data was
based on installed cost. A location factor of 90.7% was applied to the installed cost
based on the Boise, I daho location (2006 RSMeans Heavy Construction Cost Data).
2) Mobilization/demobilization probable costs are 10% and construction contingency
probable costs are 5%.
3) Pressure redu-cing valve costs are based on a quote from GC Systems (Cia-Val
representative) of $8,500 for one valve and controller. The install cost is assumed to
be approximately 50% of the equipment cost.
4) Building construction cost is assumed to be $1001ft2
For simplicity, this analysis neglects pump and manifold oversizing associated with
three vertical turbine pumps directing flow from the Hidden Springs Reservoir to the
Broken Horn Reservoir with a portion of these flows servicing the aquifer storage and
recovery project. Only components associated with the reverse flow direction (Broken
Horn Reservoir to Hidden Springs Reservoir) are included in this analysis.
