I n t e g r i t y - S e r v i c e - E x c e l l e n c e Energy EUL Deal Structure Energy EULs Assist in meeting AF asset management and energy goals Diversify and optimize value of AF real property assets Are long-term, 30 to 50 year, Public Private Partnerships (PPP) Are driven by external market demand State Renewable Portfolio Standards (RPS) Unlike PPA, EUL project not limited to installation need; scalable to capture market demand Are not Power Purchase Agreements (PPA) – commitment to procure energy AF exploring development of Combined EUL / PPA; regulatory factors being addressed 3

I n t e g r i t y - S e r v i c e - E x c e l l e n c e Project Types and Characteristics Solar Photovoltaic (PV) & Concentrated Solar Power (CSP), Wind, Geothermal, Biomass, Waste-to-Energy (WTE) are all acceptable based on resource availability Utility-scale and distributed generation both acceptable State Renewable Portfolio Standards drive project type Project phasing acceptable and encouraged Long-term development partnerships based on single Request for Qualifications (RFQ) Project phasing allows for rapid Phase I implementation; speed to market and cash flow Community partnerships for biomass and WTE often required Development costs require scale to bring down cost of generation AF installation resources often insufficient alone Utility-scale energy storage (long-term planning) High-resource installations in key markets require to fully exploit 4

I n t e g r i t y - S e r v i c e - E x c e l l e n c e AF interested in full spectrum of renewable energy project types to monetize non-excess assets, and in some cases to meet AF energy goals Market demand determines EUL project scale and phased rollout of project Flexibility is key to structuring deals; speed to market and cash flow being essential goals for the AF AF has matured the EUL business model and commercial-like processes to implement deals Current business development pipeline for energy EULs offers significant opportunity for the development community 10 Summary
