Exhibit A to Buyer's Club customers and provide rebate services as required for State of California and Investor Owned Utilities. The Buyer's Club discount is expected to be about 10 - 20% off of standard pricing. New Residential Developments -Solar Developments Program: The Solar Development Program promotes the installation of residential PV systems in new home developments. Training assistance for developers in conjunction with the cities' existing Green Building Programs and public relations support would be provided. The Solar Developments Program, like the Buyer's Club, benefits the Solar Cities, new home buyers, developers, and PV installers. Existing and New Commercial -Solar Means Business Program: The Solar Means Business Program promotes the installation of PV systems on existing and new commercial buildings. The Program is a simple, low cost approach to make it easier to install solar photovoltaic (PV) systems on existing and new commercial buildings, operating through the Cities' existing Green Building Ordinances and support programs, as well as the existing project permitting process with a minimum of additional staff time. Based on the level of PV contribution to the building's electric load, a participant would be given enhanced "green" credits that may be included with other green attributes to establish an overall LEED score for compliance with the Cities' Green Building Ordinances and programs. City Owned Facilities -Solar Civic Program: The Solar Civic Program promotes the installation of PV systems on existing city facilities and the incorporation of solar in the development of new civic buildings. The Solar Civic Program maximizes the effective inclusion of PV in the design of new facilities. The Program also promotes retrofitting key existing facilities by identifying suitable sites for PV, including PV in defining the scope of projects, developing PV technical specifications for RFPs, evaluating contractor proposals, advising on contract awards, monitoring construction, and verifying system performance during commissioning. Proposed Program Plans Existing Residential Retrofit: Placing PV systems on existing residences offer the best opportunity to serve the largest portion of the existing community directly, but they also can be the most expensive in terms of unit cost, marketing, and the expenditure of organizational resources. Residences vary greatly in their attributes: they have different orientations, shading, roof material, roof layouts, roof age, and load characteristics. The "Solar Buyer's Club" program was developed to reach the greatest number of willing participants. Solar Buyer's Club: Objective: To simplify and reduce the cost of the installation of residential solar photovoltaic (PV) systems on existing homes in the Cities of Livermore and Pleasanton. 5050 Laguna Blvd, Suite 112-324, Elk Grnve, CA 95758 / 916-213-5978, 916-684-7046 (fax) deosol@aol.com (email), CA Lic. #820411
