date provided in Sections 3.4.3(i) through 3.4.3(v)(1) for the ISO to relinquish
Operational Control over the affected transmission lines, associated facilities or
Entitlements to such Tax Exempt Participating TO, such party promptly shall give
written notice to the other, and each agrees to negotiate in good faith, for a reasonable
period of time, to determine whether or not they can reach mutual agreement for such
an alternate date; provided, however, such good faith negotiations are not required to
be conducted during the five days preceding the date provided in Sections 3.4.3(i)
through 3.4.3(v)(1) for the ISO to relinquish Operational Control over the affected

3.4.9 Provision of Information by ISO. To assist Tax Exempt
Participating TOs in identifying at the earliest opportunity Impending Adverse Tax
Actions or Actual Adverse Tax Actions, the ISO promptly shall provide to Participating
TOs any non -confidential information regarding any ISO plans, actions or operating

determines not to be necessary to fulfill the ISO's responsibilities under the ISO Tariff in
accordance with Section 4.1.3 of this Agreement shall not be treated as part of a
Participating TO's network for the purposes of this Section 4.1. The ISO shall recognize
the rights and obligations of owners of jointly -owned facilities which are placed under
the ISO's Operational Control by one or more but not all of the joint owners. The ISO
shall, in exercise of Operational Control transferred to it, ensure that the operating
obligations, as specified by the Participating TO pursuant to Section 6.4.2 of this
Agreement, for the contracts referenced in Appendix B are performed. Any other terms
of such contracts shall not be the responsibility of the ISO. The following transmission
lines and associated facilities are also deemed not to form part of a Participating TO's
transmission network:
i. directly assignable radial lines and associated facilities
interconnecting generation (other than those facilities which may be identified from time
to time interconnecting ISO Controlled Grid Critical Protective Systems or Generators
contracted to provide Black Start or Voltage Support) and
lines and associated facilities classified as "local distribution"

Participating TO to enlarge its transmission capacity except pursuant to an order under
Section 211 of the FPA directing the Local Furnishing Participating TO to enlarge its ,
transmission capacity as necessary to provide transmission service as determined
pursuant to Section 3.2.9 of the ISO Tariff. If an application under Section 211 of the
FPA is filed by an eligible entity (or the ISO acting as its agent), the Local Furnishing
Participating TO shall thereafter, within 10 days of receiving a copy of the Section 211
application, waive its right to a request for service under Section 213(a) of the FPA and
to the issuance of a proposed order under Section 212(c) of the FPA. Upon receipt of a
final order from FERC under Section 211 of the FPA that is no longer subject to
rehearing or appeal, such Local Furnishing Participating TO shall enlarge its
transmission capacity to comply with that FERC order and shall transfer to the ISO
Operational Control over its expanded transmission facilities in accordance with this
Section 4.
4.1.3 Refusal of Facilities. The ISO may refuse to exercise
Operational Control over certain of an applicant's transmission lines, associated
facilities or Entitlements if it determines during the processing of an application under
Section 2.2 that any one or more of the following conditions exist:
i. The transmission lines, associated facilities or Entitlements do not
meet or do not permit the ISO to meet the Applicable Reliability Criteria and the
applicant fails to give the ISO a written undertaking to take all good faith actions
necessary to ensure that those transmission lines, facilities or Entitlements, as the case
may be, meet the Applicable Reliability Criteria within a reasonable period from the date
of the applicant's application under Section 2.2 as determined by the ISO.

ii. The transmission lines, associated facilities or Entitlements are
subject to Encumbrances that unduly impair the ISO's ability to exercise its Operational
Control over them in accordance with the ISO Tariff and the applicant fails to give the
ISO a written undertaking to negotiate in good faith to the extent permitted by the
applicable contract the removal of the Encumbrances identified by the ISO which
preclude it from using unused capacity on the relevant transmission lines. If the
applicant provides such written undertaking but is unable to negotiate the removal of
such Encumbrances'to the extent required by the ISO, the ADR Procedure shall be
used to resolve any disputes between the ISO and the applicant. For this purpose,
Non -Participating TOs may utilize ISO ADR procedures on a voluntary basis.,
iii. The transmission lines, associated facilities and Entitlements are
located in a Control Area outside of California, are operated under the direction of
another Control Area or independent system operator, and cannot be integrated into the
ISO Controlled Grid due to technical considerations.
If the ISO refuses to. accept any of an. applicant's transmission lines,
facilities or Entitlements, then that applicant shall have the right to notify the ISO within
a reasonable period from being notified of such refusal that it will not proceed with its
application under Section 2.2.

4.5.1 Additional Facilities. If the ISO determines that it requires
Operational Control over additional transmission lines and associated facilities not then
constituting part of the ISO Controlled Grid in order to fulfill its responsibilities in relation
to the ISO Controlled Grid then the ISO shall apply to FERC pursuant to Section 203 of
the Federal Power Act, and shall make all other regulatory filings necessary to obtain
approval for such change of control and shall serve a copy of all such applications on
the affected Participating TO and the owner of such lines and facilities (if other than the
Participating TO). In the event that a Party invokes the dispute resolution provisions
identified in Section 15 with respect to the transfer of Operational Control over a facility,
such facility shall not be transferred while the dispute resolution process is pending
except pursuant to Section 4.5.2.

temporary Operational Control over any transmission lines or associated facilities of a
Participating TO (including lines and facilities to which the Participating TO has
sufficient Entitlement to permit the ISO to exercise Operational Control -over them) that
do not then form part of the ISO Controlled Grid:
i. in order to prevent or remedy an imminent System Emergency;
ii. on reasonable notice, for a period not exceeding ninety (90) days,

facilities will assist the ISO to meet Applicable Reliability Criteria or to fulfill its Control
Area responsibilities under the ISO Tariff; or

the ISO has assumed temporary Operational Control will be returned to the appropriate
Participating TO when the conditions set forth in Section 4.5.2 no longer. require the ISO
to assume such temporary control.
4.5.4 Transmission Expansion Projects. Any transmission
expansion projects carried out pursuant to Section 3.2 of the ISO Tariff shall be subject
to the ISO's Operational Control from the date that it goes into service or after such
period as the ISO deems to be reasonably necessary for the ISO to integrate the project
into the ISO Controlled Grid.

Availability Measures - The frequency and accumulated duration of Forced Outages(IMs)
for each of the Transmission Line Circuits within a Voltage Class for a given calendar
year.
Availability Measure Targets- The Availability performance goals established by the

Forced Outage(lm5) A Forced Outage(lms) occurs when a Transmission Facility is in an
Outage(IMS) condition regardless of duration and: (1) there is no Scheduled Outage
request in effect with respect to that period; or (2) the Transmission Facility is in an
OutageyMs) condition for a period that exceeds the period specified in the Scheduled
Outage request, in which case a Forced Outage(lms) is deemed to exist for the balance
of the period, unless the PTO requests and is granted an extension to the approved
