shall be binding for purposes of the Agreement as though they were prepared by Project
Developer and provided to Avista as required by the Agreement.
6.3.5 Project Developer's Revisions of Net Delivered Output Estimates. At the
end of month three following the Effective Date, and at the end of every third month
thereafter, counting the month during which the Effective Date occurs as month one,
Project Developer may provide Avista with revisions to Net Delivered Output estimates
previously provided to Avista, except Project Developer may not revise Net Delivered
Output estimates that pertain to the three consecutive months that immediately follow the
month during which Project Developer provides Avista notice of the revisions. tf Project
Developer elects to revise Net Delivered Output estimates previously provided to Avista,

Section 6.3.5.
9.3.2 If the Project Developer desires to initiate a Declared Suspension of
Energy Deliveries as provided in Section 9.3.1, the Project Developer shall notify the
Designated Dispatch Facility by telephone. The beginning hour of the Declared

that will contain the beginning hour and duration of the Declared Suspension of Energy
Deliveries and a description of the conditions that caused the Project Developer to
initiate a Declared Suspension of Energy Deliveries. Avista shall review the
documentation provided by the Project Developer to determine Avista's acceptance of
the described forced outage as qualifying for a Declared Suspension of Energy
Deliveries as specified in Section 9.3.1. Avista's acceptance of the Project
Developer's forced outage as an acceptable forced outage will be based upon the clear
documentation provided by the Project Developer that the forced outage is not due to an
event of Force Majeure or by neglect, disrepair or lack of adequate preventative
maintenance of the Project Developer's Facility.
