FINANCIAL STATEMENT: This contract is anticipated to save the City from $1,000 to $4,200 per year. DESCRIPTION: Access Energy is a supplier of natural gas which delivers directly from sources to the user. Access Energy has been in business since 1982 and a current list of customers includes Honda, Wendy's, Pizza Hut, Kentucky Fried Chicken, U.S. Air Force, and many others. Since becoming a customer, Honda has saved $1 million annually. Access Energy guarantees an annual reduction in natural gas cost. Savings are estimated at 3% to 12% annually. At this time, Access Energy sells gas to large companies and "core" customers, which are small gas users pooled to enhance purchasing resources. Core customers include cities, property management companies, laundromats, bowling alleys, schools, condominiums, restaurants, churches, office complexes, and neighborhood associations. Access Energy purchases the gas directly from the producer and uses utility company facilities to distribute the gas to its customers. The utility company is still responsible for maintaining its own facilities and Access Energy customers still receive the same services in the same manner from the utility company. Billings will show a utility company service charge for the use of the utlity' s transmission facilities and an Access Energy charge for the gas. All payments are made to Access Energy who, in turn, pays the utility company for its services. Billings also show a comparison between the utility company's rate and Access Energy's rate. Because the City will still be using PG&E facilities and maintenance services, a separate joint agreement must be signed between all three parties. If Access Energy does not pay PG&E for the gas and services, ' responsibility for payment falls onto the City. However, Access Energy will pay a security deposit to PG&E to cover the potential default on payment. If the City chooses to become a customer, it must join between May 15 and June 30, 1991. This time frame was set by the California Public Utilities Commission (CPUC) . The next opportunity for the City to become a customer could be three (3) years from now. After becoming a customer, the City would be required to remain so for a minimum of one year. Currently, the City spends approximately $35,000 per year to purchase natural gas. By becoming an Access Energy customer, the City could save an estimated $1,000 to $4,200 annually. Therefore, Staff recommends that the City Council adopt the Resolution approving the Agreement between the City and Access Energy, and the Agreement between the City, PG&E and Access Energy. 46 --------- ---------------------------------------------------------- ITEM N0. --- COPIES TO: Access Energy PG&E RESOLUTION NO. -91 A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF DUBLIN APPROVING AGREEMENTS BETWEEN THE CITY AND ACCESS ENERGY, AND BETWEEN THE CITY, ACCESS EDGY AND PG&E, TO PURCHASE NATURAL GAS FROM ACCESS ENERGY USING PG&E FACILITIES VkH REA.S, Access Energy is a supplier of natural gas which delivers directly from sources to the user; and WHEREAS, Access Energy purchases gas directly from the producer and uses PG&E facilities to distribute the gas to their customers; and WHEREAS, PG&E is still responsible for maintaining their facilities; and WHEREAS, by becoming an Access Energy customer, the City could save 3% to 12% of its annual gas bill; NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the City of Dublin does approve the Agreements between the City and Access Energy, and between the City, Access Energy and PG&E, to purchase natural gas from Access Energy using PG&E facilities.

AYES: NOES: ABSENT: Mayor ATTEST: City Clerk UHIBIT SHARED SAVINGS PROGRAM GAS SALES AGREEMENT This is a Gas Sales Agreement ("Agreement")made by Access Energy Corporation("Access Energy") and CITY OF DUBLIN, CALIFORNIA _("Buyer"),effective the day of .1991. 1. Purchase and Sale Commitment. Buyer appoints Access Energy as its exclusive agent to establish a core gas transportation program (" Program") on behalf of Buyer for the facilities listed on Exhibit A ("Facilities"). Access Energy agrees to use its reasonable efforts to establish the Program. Buyer's appointment authorizes Access Energy to do all things appropriate to establish the Program,including the following: register the Facilities for transportation purposes; obtain usage data from Buyer's local distribution company(ies); combine the Program with that of other core transporters; execute local distribution company riders and other documentation on behalf of Buyer; nominate on behalf of Buyer; and direct the local distribution company(ies) servicing Buyer to send Buyer's bills directly to Access Energy. Once the Program is established by Access Energy,Buyer shall purchase directly or indirectly from Access Energy,and Access Energy shall sell to or for the account of Buyer,all of Buyer's gas requirements for the Facilities. Buyer shall advise Access Energy of any material modification(s) in Buyer's usage. Access Energy will advance any local distribution company deposits required of Buyer to establish itself as a core transporter. The deposits will be recouped by Access Energy through any subsequent credits or refunds provided by the local distribution company(ies). If Buyer elects not to transport gas after Access Energy has paid a non-refundable deposit on behalf of Buyer,Buyer shall immediately reimburse Access Energy the full amount of such deposit. 2. Term The term of this Agreement shall extend from the effective date above through the end of the CPUC's core transportation "pilot program" (the CPUC's pilot program is anticipated to extend through July 31,1994). If prior to the commencement of any contract year Access Energy elects not to offer the annual "Savings Guarantee" described at the end of Paragraph 3, either party may terminate this Agreement effective as of the end of the contract year in progress. 3. Price. The price shall be adjusted on a monthly basis and shall include an administrative fee of 5.005 per therm. Several terms, as defined below, are used to calculate the price. The "Access Energy Price" for any given month shall be equal to the sum of the"Wholesale Price Index"and the"Transportation Cost"for such month. The Wholesale Price Index is the average of the following gas price indices as posted for the particular delivery month multiplied by the total gas volumes sold to Buyer during such month: (1) Inside F.E.R.C.'s Gas Market Report, Prices of Spot Gas Delivered to Pipelines,'El Paso Natural Gas Co.,Permian Basin,Index;(2) Natural Gas Intelligence,Gas Price Index,Spot Gas Prices",Delivered to Pipelines,West Texas/Permian Basin, El Paso, Contract Index; and (3) Natural Gas Week, Spot Prices on Natural Gas Pipeline Systems, Delivered-to-Pipeliine,El Paso Natural Gas Co.,Permian: Waha,Texas,This Week. In all cases the first publication during the particular delivery month shall be used. If in any month a specific posting is not made,only the postings which are made shall be used for averaging purposes. For pricing purposes the Wholesale Price Index shall apply regardless of where Access Energy sources the gas. The Transportation Cost is the sum of all local distribution company and pipeline charges,plus taxes, applicable to the sale and/or movement of all gas volumes for the Facilities during the particular delivery month. The"Public Utility Price"is the total,delivered cost of gas (all inclusive) that otherwise would have been charged to Buyer under the local distribution company's(ies') regular sales service tariff during the particular delivery month for the equivalent volumes it received from Access Energy. Each month Access Energy shall compare the Public Utility Price to the Access Energy Price. The amount, if any, by which the Public Utility Price exceeds the Access Energy Price is the "Savings Dif- ferential" for such month. In any month where there is a Savings Differential, the price to be paid by E X 1-11 F) t 20 " Buyer to Access Energy shall b : Public Utility Price for such mono , .ass Sixty percent ( 60 %)of the Savings Differential. (This percentage of Savings Differential may be adjusted on an annual basis, upward or downward,by Access Energy if Buyer's actual gas usage is materially more or less than therms per year, as anticipated by the parties at the time of signing this Agreement.) In any month where there is no Savings Differential,the price to be paid by Buyer to Access Energy shall be the Access Energy Price. Access Energy will receive directly and pay each month all local distribution company bills for the Facilities serviced under this Agreement. As long as Buyer complies with the provisions of this Agreement, Access Energy will pay any and all banking,standby and/or balancing penalties properly imposed by Buyer's local distribution company(ies). If, over the course of the first year of actual gas flow under this Agreement (the first contract year), Buyer's cumulative payments to Access Energy exceed the cumulative payments that otherwise would have been paid under the local distribution company's(ies')regularsales service tariff,Access Energy shall credit Buyer for the full amount of such excess (the "Savings Guarantee"). 4. Payment. On a monthly basis Access Energy shall render to Buyer a statement for each of Buyer's Facilities serviced under this Agreement. Buyer shall pay Access Energy any and all amounts due within nineteen(19)days from date of invoice. Late payment charges maybe imposed by Access Energy at a rate equal to the prime rate,plus one percent(M. Notwithstanding the existence of any late payment penalty, any failure to pay any Access Energy monthly statement and/or late payment shall provide Access Energy with the unilateral right to terminate this Agreement. 5. Force Maieure. The occurrence of a force majeure event rendering either party unable to carry out its obligations shall excuse both parties from their obligations,other than the obligation of Buyer to make payments when due,for the duration of such force majeure event.The term"fcrcemajeure"shall mean events not reasonably within the control of the party claiming suspension, and shall specifically include any future change in any law,rule or regulation,or utility practice,which prohibits or frustrates Access Energy from carrying out the terms of this Agreement or covering its reasonable costs. 6.
