PAGE UPDATES: On page 17, under Qualification of Bidder, second paragraph, the page number was omitted. It should read as follows: (see page 154 of the IFB)

On page 62, Lot 17, the facilities are listed as daily balanced, but in actuality these facilities are monthly accounts.

On page 68, Lot 19, the facilities are monthly balanced excluding Elmira Psych. Center, which is a daily balanced account. OGS PSG has chosen to leave Elmira Psych. Center in this lot.

EXCEL SPREADSHEET AVAILABLE: Please contact Colleen Messier via e-mail for an excel spreadsheet listing the facility supplied account numbers and service classifications, if applicable.

BID LANGUAGE CHANGES: All requests for bid language modification have been reviewed and finalized.

Questions Submitted by Potential Bidders and PSG’s Responses

Page 4, CONTRACT BILLINGS AND PAYMENTS: Question: How are payments made by the authorized user? Response: see page 4, under contract billing and payments.

Question: Can invoices be sent by e-mail? Response: No, not at this time.

Page 12, MPDQ: Question: What does MPDQ stand for? Response: Maximum peak daily quantity is as defined in the National Grid Gas Transportation Operating Manual. This charge is allowed to be passed through to the facility.

Question: Will OGS change the MPDQ definition to allow the ESCO to include it in the bid price? Response: No, not at this time

Page 14, PRICE: Question: Under the fixed price heading it states that “price decreases are allowed at any time. Are price decreases determined solely by the contractor? Response: Yes

Question: Under the indexed price heading it states that “basis cost decreases are allowed at any time. Are basis cost decreases determined solely by the contractor? Response: Yes

Question: Would OGS consider revision of the 3 day closing settlement price of NYMEX? Response: No, not at this time.

21998p.doc/T03ccm GROUP 05900 – NATURAL GAS (Firm Supply – Fixed and Indexed Price) PAGE 3 (Interruptible Supply – indexed Price)

Page 15, CONTRACT TYPES: Questions: There is no reference as to how daily and monthly volume fluctuations are to be handed. Is it the intent of the OGS to provide each Authorized User with full swing rights with one monthly price for indexed supply and one term price for fixed price supply? Response: Tariff balancing charges (exclusive of any applicable daily and monthly cash-out balancing charges) from the LDC are passed through to the facility. All pricing is for full plant requirements, with no applicable swing charges. If customer nominates “0” the marketer is responsible for all liquidation. Be advised, that except for a temporary shutdown for maintenance or emergency, facilities are required to use the most economical alternate fuel.

Page 17, ESCO RESPONSIBILITES DURING CURTAILMENTS/INTERRUPTIONS:

Question: under During Curtailments/Interruptions there is no mention of the Authorized User having to notify the ESCO of any changes in plant usage (e.g. shutdowns, maintenance, etc.). Would the OGS consider requiring the Authorized User to provide notice of any changes in expected usage as the ESCO is being held liable for any costs associated with such changes (similar to that under Customer Responsibilities)? Response: At the time of monthly nominations should include daily usage and any fluctuation to it.

Page 18, NATURAL GAS QUALITY:

Question: Natural Gas Quality the OGS has a lengthy description of the quality of natural gas that the ESCO shall deliver. Would the OGS consider revision this section to read as follows? “All gas delivered by Seller shall meet the pressure, quality and heat content requirements of the Receiving Transporter.” The language in the previous sentence is the industry standard language as determined by the North American Energy Standards Board (“NAESB”).

Response: No, not at this time

Pages 75 – 105, NATIONAL GRID (EAST AND WEST GATE):

Question: In Lots 25 though 33 the OGS does not specify which accounts have daily or monthly (cycle) read meters. Will the OGS be providing this information?

Response: Please contact Colleen Messier via e-mail for an excel spreadsheet listing the facility supplied account numbers and service classifications, if applicable.

HISTORICAL DATA:

Question: In order to determine the balancing requirements (variability of an Authorized User’s natural gas usage as compared to weather) associated with a specific Authorized User account, Sprague needs 12 months (24 months preferred) of historical usage. Can the OGS provide 24 months of historical data for each account or Lot? If not can the OGS provide 12 months of historical data?

Response: The delivery schedule is based on historical data.

21998p.doc/T03ccm GROUP 05900 – NATURAL GAS (Firm Supply – Fixed and Indexed Price) PAGE 4 (Interruptible Supply – indexed Price)

APPENDIX B: Question: On page 6 of Appendix B item #24-f discusses “best pricing offer”. Is this section applicable to the bid?

Response: This section does not apply to this IFB.

Question: On page 11 of Appendix B item #58 discusses bid bonds. Based on the language the Commissioner can require the Contractor to post adequate assurance without any restrictions and/or reason. Please provide some guidance as to what type of circumstances would be used by the Commissioner to impose the mandates of this section.

Response: We do not require a bid bond

Question: On page 13 of Appendix B item #65-d discusses reimbursement of costs incurred. We need clarification that the additional cost and expenses incurred by the Customer are limited to an amount equal to any positive difference between the price paid by Customer (Authorized User) to a third party for natural gas (in an amount not exceeding that which ESCO failed to deliver), if any, adjusted for commercially reason able differences in transportation cost to or from the delivery point(s) less the Contract price for the amount of Gas ESCO failed to deliver.

Response: If the awarded marketer defaulted and the facility was forced to purchased gas from the utility company, that marketer would be responsible for that amount delivered and all penalties associated with it.

Question: On page 13 of Appendix B item #72-d discusses “product warranty”. Is this section applicable to the bid?

Response: This section does not apply to this IFB.

Appendix 1 {Revised: March 2009}

New York State Standard Vendor Responsibility Questionnaire (Use the Uniform Contracting Questionnaire CCA-1, for all construction contracts)

Each Contracting Agency conducts a review of prospective contractors (“vendors”) to provide reasonable assurances that the vendor is responsible. This questionnaire is used for all non-construction contracts with a contract value of $100,000.00 or more and is designed to provide information to assess a vendor’s authorization to do business in New York State, as well as your business integrity, financial and organizational capacity, and performance history. (Review of construction contractors will be based upon the Uniform Contracting Questionnaire developed by the Council of Contracting Agencies.)

Each vendor must answer every question contained in this questionnaire. Where a response requires additional information, the vendor must attach a written response that adequately details the requested information. Please number each response to match the question number. The completed questionnaire and attached responses will become part of the procurement record.

In order to expedite the required review, when providing additional information for a “YES” answer to Questions 14 a-s, or any other response which requires additional explanation, your information and responses should address the relationship of the issue to the proposed contract. Be brief, concise and to the point. Discuss as appropriate the following:

• Provide a description of the issue and identify the actions taken or currently being implemented to ensure that the issue will not occur again. • State whether the staff and/or organizational component involved in the identified issue(s) will work on the proposed contract. If so, provide information to assure the agency that the issue will not be repeated. • Identify the relationship (or lack thereof) between the product/services involved in the issue and the type of product/services proposed for this contract. • State whether the issue will affect your financial or organizational ability to perform under the proposed contract. • Provide copies of relevant documents or any other information that would assist the agency in its vendor responsibility evaluation.

It is imperative that the person completing the vendor responsibility questionnaire be knowledgeable about the proposing vendor’s business and operations, as an owner or officer of the vendor must attest to the questionnaire information. Please be advised that at the end of this questionnaire, you must certify, under oath, all responses given.

NYS STANDARD VENDOR RESPONSIBILITY QUESTIONNAIRE (APPENDIX 1): Bidder agrees to fully and accurately complete the NYS Standard Vendor Responsibility Questionnaire, which is attached as Appendix 1 (hereinafter the “Questionnaire”). The Bidder acknowledges that the State’s execution of the Contract will be contingent upon the State’s determination that the Bidder is responsible, and that the State will be relying upon the Bidder’s responses to the Questionnaire in making that determination. The Bidder agrees that if it is found by the State that the Bidder’s responses to the Questionnaire were intentionally false or intentionally incomplete, on such finding, OGS may terminate the Contract by providing ten (10) days written notification to the Contractor. In no case shall such termination of the Contract by the State be deemed a breach thereof, nor shall the State be liable for any damages for lost profits or otherwise, which may be sustained by the Contractor as a result of such termination.

TAX LAW 5-A AMENDED APRIL 26, 2006 (APPENDIX 2) Section 5-a of the Tax Law, as amended, effective April 26, 2006, requires certain contractors awarded state contracts for commodities, services and technology valued at more than $100,000 to certify to the Department of Taxation and Finance (DTF) that they are registered to collect New York State and local sales and compensating use taxes. The law applies to contracts where the total amount of such contractors’ sales delivered into New York State are in excess of $300,000 for the four quarterly periods immediately preceding the quarterly period in which the certification is made, and with respect to any affiliates and subcontractors whose sales delivered into New York State exceeded $300,000 for the four quarterly periods immediately preceding the quarterly period in which the certification is made. This law imposes upon certain contractors the obligation to certify whether or not the contractor, its affiliates, and its subcontractors are required to register to collect state sales and compensating use tax and contractors must certify to DTF that each affiliate and subcontractor exceeding such sales threshold is registered with DTF to collect New York State and local sales and compensating use taxes. The law prohibits the State Comptroller, or other approving agency, from approving a contract awarded to a contractor meeting the registration requirements but who is not so registered in accordance with the law. Contractor certification forms and instructions for completing the forms are attached to this bid. Form No. ST- 220-TD must be filed with and returned directly to DTF. Unless the information upon which the ST-220-TD is based changes, this form only needs to be filed once with DTF. If the information changes for the contractor, its affiliate(s), or its subcontractor(s), a new Form No. ST-220-TD must be filed with DTF. Form ST-220-CA must be filed with the bid and submitted to the procuring covered agency certifying that the contractor filed the ST-220-TD with DTF. Proposed contractors should complete and return the certification forms within two business days of request (if the forms are not completed and returned with bid submission). Failure to make either of these filings may render a bidder non-responsive and non-responsible. Bidders shall take the necessary steps to provide properly certified forms within a timely manner to ensure compliance with the law. Vendors may call DTF at 1-800-698-2909 for any and all questions relating to Section 5-a of the Tax Law and relating to a company's registration status with the DTF. For additional information and frequently asked questions, please refer to the DTF web site: http://www.nystax.gov.

DIESEL EMISSION REDUCTION ACT OF 2006 (NEW REQUIREMENT OF LAW): On February 12, 2007 the Diesel Emissions Reduction Act took effect as law (the “Law”). Pursuant to new §19-0323 of the N.Y. Environmental Conservation Law (“NYECL”) it is now a requirement that heavy duty diesel vehicles in excess of 8,500 pounds use the best available retrofit technology (“BART”) and ultra low sulfur diesel fuel (“ULSD”). The requirement of the Law applies to all vehicles owned, operated by or on behalf of, or leased by State agencies and State or regional public authorities. They need to be operated exclusively on ULSD by February 12, 2007. It also requires that such vehicles owned, operated by or on behalf of, or leased by State agencies and State or regional public authorities with more than half of its governing body appointed by the Governor utilize BART.

Regulations currently being drafted will provide further guidance as to the effects of the Law on contract vendors using heavy duty diesel vehicles on behalf of the State. The Law also permits waivers of ULSD and BART under limited circumstances at the discretion of the Commissioner of Environmental Conservation. The Law will also require reporting from State agencies and from contract vendors in affected contracts. Therefore, the bidder hereby certifies and warrants that all heavy duty vehicles, as defined in NYECL §19-0323, to be used under this contract, will comply with the specifications and provisions of NYECL §19-0323, and any regulations promulgated pursuant thereto, which requires the use of BART and ULSD, unless specifically waived by NYSDEC.

PROCUREMENT CONTRACT FEE – NATURAL GAS: State Finance Law §163-c (added by Part F of Chapter 56 of the Laws of 2008), imposes a centralized procurement contract fee (procurement fee) for centralized contracts for the purchase of commodities, services and technology awarded and administered by the Commissioner of General Services. The procurement fee is equal to one half of one percent (0.005) of the price of the commodity, service or technology sold and payable by the contractor. State Finance Law section 163-c applies to bids issued by OGS on or after July 1, 2008. For the purposes of this solicitation, bidder shall not include the procurement fee in its bid price. The Office of General Services shall add the fee to the bid price for each lot in accordance with the statute and will be subject to review for evaluation and recommendations for contract. The Office of General Services shall publish the Final Prices for both fixed and indexed prices and future price amendments on its web site.

OGS shall publish the Final Prices and future price adjustments, where applicable, using these calculations. The final prices shall be calculated for both the fixed and indexed prices as follows:

Final Fixed Price = fixed price (basis cost + the commodity cost) + procurement fee (fixed price *.005)

Final Indexed Price = indexed price (average of the last 3 days of the NYMEX as defined in this solicitation + basis cost) + procurement fee (indexed price *.005)

The procurement fee of one half of one percent of sales to purchasers by the contractor for the applicable preceding calendar quarter, as well as an accompanying return, must be made by the contractor to the New York State Department of Taxation and Finance (“DTF”) no later than forty-five (45) days after the close of each calendar quarter. Payment of the procurement fee, as well as filing of the accompanying return, must be made electronically to DTF. Prior to electronically filing the initial return and electronically paying the initial procurement fee, contractors must register on DTF’s Online Tax Center (http://www.tax.state.ny.us/nyshome/online.htm). Returns must be filed even if no sales under the centralized contract were made during the preceding calendar quarter. Simultaneously, the contractor must provide its sales report for such preceding calendar quarter to OGS in the format and with details set forth in this solicitation. Contractors must fully cooperate with DTF and OGS relative to such payments and filings. Penalties for failure to comply with the filing and payment requirements are provided for by Article 27 of the Tax Law. A contractor that cannot comply with the mandatory electronic filing and payment requirements must advise the OGS in writing at the time of bidding that it cannot reasonably comply with such electronic requirements. The contractor must provide the basis and reasons for its inability to comply. OGS shall in its sole discretion determine whether a sufficient basis and reasons have been presented supporting waiver of the mandatory electronic requirements. If the waiver is granted, the contractor shall pay the procurement fee to OGS by paper check, accompanied by the sales report and the paper return within forty-five days (45) days after the close of the preceding calendar quarter in accordance with the directions on the form. Contractor agrees to fully cooperate with OGS relative to such payment and filings. In addition to the penalties prescribed by Article 27 of the Tax Law, failure by a contractor to timely and accurately remit the procurement fee, provide the sales report and file the return for each calendar quarter shall constitute a breach of contract, and the Commissioner of General Services may exercise discretion to terminate such centralized contract on written notice to the contractor.

NOTE: Notwithstanding the above, bidders are advised that the Governor’s 2010 budget proposal provides for the repeal of §163-c of the State Finance Law, “Centralized Procurement Contract Fee.” If approved by the Legislature and signed by the Governor, the procurement fee requirement as described above would no longer be applicable to this solicitation and the associated contract award. As this potential legislative action could have an impact on pricing in the bid under this solicitation, OGS reserves the right to adjust pricing to reflect the elimination of the one half of one percent (0.005) procurement fee consistent with the pricing methodology, effective the repeal day. Bidders are on notice that the Executive budget proposal for the State Fiscal year 2010 – 2011 State Budget is subject to legislative debate and discussions, is subject to change, and there is no guarantee that the proposed repeal of the procurement fee will take place.

PRICE: Prices shall be bid as either fixed or indexed as specified in each lot.

FIXED PRICE: Lots indicated as fixed price shall include both commodity and basis costs in the bid price. In accordance with the statute, OGS shall add the procurement contract fee to the ESCO’s fixed price to establish the final fixed price. Price increases are not applicable for those lots marked as fixed price. However, price decreases are allowed at anytime. Monthly indexed commodity prices do not apply to those lots identified as fixed price.

INDEXED PRICE: For Lots indicated as indexed price the ESCO shall include only basis cost in the bid price. For evaluation, in accordance with the statute, OGS shall add the procurement fee to the bid price. Final Indexed prices shall be calculated monthly by taking the average of the last three (3) days closing settlement price of NYMEX natural gas daily settlement for the month of gas delivery and adding the basis cost and procurement fee. Prices will be carried to the 4th decimal place. While commodity price may increase or decrease from month to month, increases to basis costs are not allowed. However, basis cost decreases are allowed at anytime.

NOTE: Average of the last three days of the Close of the NYMEX shall mean the average of the last three days NYMEX Close (Settlement Price) of the NYMEX for natural gas at the Henry Hub Louisiana delivery point as published in the Wall Street Journal Futures Column and shown on the NYMEX website.

GENERAL INFORMATION (Cont’d) TAXES: Governmental entities are to be automatically considered federal and state tax exempt. No supplier/ESCO shall incur separately identifiable taxes with the expectation that they are to be passed along to the governmental user, except in such cases where the agency specifically agrees in writing in advance.

CONTRACT TYPES: The sales and deliveries of gas shall commence as soon as practicable after the completion of necessary transportation arrangements. Each contract type has distinct characteristics and requires specific customer commitments and obligations. The more significant aspects of each contract type are described as follows:

FIXED PRICE - FIRM SUPPLY: • The customer will receive "firm" supply. • The customer will pay for quantities actually used. • The customer will pay one final fixed price for the life of the contract. • The ESCO is responsible for all balancing to the burner tip. • The ESCO is required to deliver natural gas at all times. Firm supply specified in this Invitation for Bids means primary firm non-recallable primary delivery point capacity to the city gate and not secondary firm supply.

INDEXED PRICE - FIRM SUPPLY: • The customer will receive "firm" supply. • The customer will pay for quantities actually used. • The commodity price for natural gas will vary monthly based on the New York Mercantile Exchange (NYMEX) futures commodity prices. A fixed "basis cost" will be added to the commodity price to determine each month's indexed price. In accordance with the statute, the final indexed price will be calculated by adding the procurement fee to the month’s indexed price. Prices are revised and released by the OGS Procurement Services Group during the last week of the month preceding the month of delivery. • The ESCO is responsible for all balancing to the burner tip. • The ESCO is required to deliver natural gas at all times. Firm supply specified in this Invitation for Bids means primary firm non-recallable primary delivery point capacity to the city gate and not secondary firm supply.

INDEXED PRICE - INTERRUPTIBLE SUPPLY: • The customer must have 100% dual fuel capability. • The commodity price for natural gas will vary monthly based on the New York Mercantile Exchange (NYMEX) futures commodity prices. A fixed "basis cost" will be added to the commodity price to determine each month's indexed price. In accordance with the statute, the final indexed price will be calculated by adding the procurement fee to the month’s indexed price. Prices are revised and released by the OGS Procurement Services Group during the last week of the month preceding the month of delivery. • The ESCO is responsible for all balancing to the burner tip.

• The customer may nominate "0" for any month if the alternate fuel is more economical than the transportation natural gas. Also, the customer may have its gas supply interrupted when the supplier can provide satisfactory justification for an interruption or curtailment under the conditions stipulated in this Invitation for Bids and the subsequent award.

• If the natural gas prices are greater than the customer's alternate fuel, the State reserves the right to buy the alternate fuel but only if the decision to switch from gas is made at the time of nominations for that particular month. Other arrangements can be made providing mutual consent is established between the ESCO and the facility.

GENERAL INFORMATION (Cont’d)

INDEXED PRICE - INTERRUPTIBLE SUPPLY: (Cont'd) • During upstream pipeline interruptions which prevent city gate delivery of customer’s gas, the ESCO shall use all commercially reasonable efforts to secure replacement gas for the customers. Such efforts shall include, but not be limited to, supplies on alternate pipelines serving the effected LDC, requests to other the ESCOs, and requests to the effected LDC's of the availability of excess system supply gas ("excess city gas supply"). ESCO shall provide written documentation to customer of such efforts. If successful, ESCO must obtain facilities authorized personnel pre-approval and then confirm the transaction by submitting a Transaction Confirmation in the format as approved by the North American Energy Standards Board (NAESB). Price per dekatherm will be calculated as follows:

ESCO’s actual cost + $ .15 + procurement fee((ESCO’s actual cost +.15) *.005)

ESCO’s actual cost is defined as the price listed on the above mentioned Confirmation Sheet. This confirmation sheet is required for all quanities of gas purchased. Authorized user must document the reasonableness of price in the procurement record.

NOMINATIONS FOR INTERRUPTIBLE SUPPLY: The customer shall notify ESCO in writing not less than five (5) calendar days before the first day of each delivery of the estimated monthly and/or daily gas nomination of the agency. If agreed to by the ESCO, nominations may be submitted to ESCO on an alternate date. ESCO should make certain that the using agency submits a nomination each month, even if the nomination is zero. If agency nominations are not timely, ESCO may contact the Office of General Services for assistance. Customers in an Interruptible Service can only implement alternate fuels usage if decided at time of monthly nomination and the alternate fuel is determined to be less costly based on price information available at the time of nomination. Other arrangements can be made providing mutual consent is established between ESCO and end user.

INTERRUPTIBLE CUSTOMERS ARE NOT PERMITTED TO FUEL SWITCH DURING THE DELIVERY MONTH EXCEPT WHEN THERE IS A PIPELINE OR UTILITY INTERRUPTION/OPERATION FLOW ORDER (OFO) UNLESS MUTUALLY AGREED UPON BY ESCO AND INDIVIDUAL FACILITY.

Dominion Transmission, Inc. (DTI) receipt point at south of Valley Gate will not be accepted in the bid unless the bidder holds primary firm capacity that can deliver gas from the south of Valley Gate to north of Valley Gate during the winter months. (November 1st to March 31st).

ESCOS RESPONSIBILITIES DURING CURTAILMENTS/INTERRUPTIONS: If an agency nominates gas, and there is pipeline capacity available to the ESCO, ESCOs are expected to supply gas for the entire month and the facility is required to burn the gas for the entire month. The State agrees to be interrupted only when ESCO can provide satisfactory justification of interruptions or curtailments that occur on pipelines or at the LDC level, as a result of demand for transportation service exceeding capacity. ESCO shall be responsible for notifying both customer and the Office of General Services, in writing via fax or e- mail of any pipeline curtailments as soon as possible after ESCO becomes aware that a curtailment will take place. ESCOs are required during periods of upstream pipeline interruptions, to contact LDC for the availability of excess city gate supply, enabling facility to purchase gas directly from the LDC. Price shall be approved prior to purchase by the individual agency. Should curtailment/interruption occur, ESCO will be required to provide to the Office of General Services, written documentation (within 24 hours of interruption) from the pipeline or LDC that clearly describes details of curtailment/interruption. This notification must be issued by the pipeline or LDC in question and must indicate the name, number and location of the station where curtailments/interruptions take place. This notification is required for each and every instance that curtailments/ interruptions occur. If gas should flow due to ESCO’s failure to notify the customer and the Office of General Services of curtailment, and customer purchases gas directly from the utility, the customer will have sufficient justification to apply a charge-back, which shall be the difference between the contract natural gas price versus the utility supplied price, including any LDC imposed charges.

GENERAL INFORMATION (Cont’d)

ESCOS RESPONSIBILITIES DURING CURTAILMENTS/INTERRUPTIONS: (Cont'd) If customer nominates “0” or at the time of the monthly nomination notified ESCO of a scheduled a plant shutdown/maintenance during said month, and gas flows, ESCO will be liable for any charges caused by failure to manage customers account. ESCO is required to notify customers and the Office of General Services of lifting of curtailment/ interruption as soon as possible and to enable gas flow at the next available opportunity. ESCO will be liable for any charges caused by ESCO's failure to inform customer and LDC, if applicable, of lifting of curtailment/ interruption. Curtailment/Interruption of one or more pipelines will not be considered a force majeure situation.

SALES/TITLE TRANSFER POINT: The State of New York takes title at the sales point(s) identified by the bidder. Notwithstanding transfer of title to the State at the sales point(s), ESCO shall be deemed to exercise or continue in control and possession of the gas being delivered and responsible for any damage or injury caused until gas has been delivered at the LDC city gate (delivery point). Also, ESCO shall be responsible for the coordination and scheduling of transportation volumes including completing all arrangements for transportation services for delivery of the natural gas to existing meter at each agency.

WARRANTY OF TITLE: ESCO warrants title to all natural gas delivered and warrants that it has the right to sell the same and that such natural gas is free from liens and adverse claims of every kind. ESCO shall indemnify and save the State harmless against all loss, damage and expense of every kind on account of adverse claims that accrue before delivery to the State.

TRANSPORTATION CHARGES (Other Than Those Requested in this Invitation for Bids): The ESCO shall pay all costs associated with the transportation of the gas to the LDC city gate. The State (i.e. ordering agency) shall enter into a separate agreement with the LDC and pay all costs associated with the transportation of gas from the LDC city gate to the existing meter at each agency.

PUBLIC SERVICE COMMISSION RETAIL ACCESS BUSINESS RULES: The ESCO shall abide by the New York State Public Service Commission (PSC) Uniform Retail Access Business Practices Cases including all updates/revisions during the term of contract for all natural gas transactions and practices under this contract. This includes any PSC provisions covering "Single Billing". A copy of the PSC Uniform Retail Access Business Practices is available for download from the PSC web page: www.dps.state.ny.us.

QUANTITY: Subject to the terms and conditions of the contract, the ESCO agrees to sell and deliver to designated facilities, and customers agree to purchase and accept from the ESCO the nominated quantity of MMBtu’s of natural gas per month. (Delivery Schedule reflects estimated quantities only.) Customers will be billed for actual quantity consumed. The sale and delivery of gas by ESCO shall be on an interruptible or firm basis, as specified within each Lot. Where interruptible gas is specified, the ESCO shall not be liable to the State for any interruption or curtailment of deliveries of natural gas to the State where satisfactory justification for such action can be provided in writing to the Office of General Services.

QUALIFICATION OF BIDDER: Bids will be accepted only from established natural gas producers or brokers (ESCOs) who have access to a supply of natural gas from which it is willing to make sales to the State, subject to completion and continuance of necessary transportation arrangements. In the event a bid is submitted by a broker, the broker hereby guarantees that a producer has agreed to supply the broker with quantities of gas to be ordered by the broker pursuant to any resulting contract with the State and agrees further to provide the State with a certificate from the producer acknowledging same, if requested. Also, no bid will be considered unless bidder is authorized to transfer gas under Section 311 of the Natural Gas Act of 1978 or be able to enter into an agreement with the LDC to gain access to appropriate interstate pipeline for delivery to using agency. For each Lot that is bid, supplier is required to furnish an agreement number on a major pipeline that supplies that LDC as well as the volume flowed on that pipeline during the previous year. (See page of the IFB) Failure to furnish this information may disqualify the bid from consideration.

Appendix 1 {Revised: March 2009}

New York State Standard Vendor Responsibility Questionnaire (Use the Uniform Contracting Questionnaire CCA-1, for all construction contracts)

Each Contracting Agency conducts a review of prospective contractors (“vendors”) to provide reasonable assurances that the vendor is responsible. This questionnaire is used for all non-construction contracts with a contract value of $100,000.00 or more and is designed to provide information to assess a vendor’s authorization to do business in New York State, as well as your business integrity, financial and organizational capacity, and performance history. (Review of construction contractors will be based upon the Uniform Contracting Questionnaire developed by the Council of Contracting Agencies.)

Each vendor must answer every question contained in this questionnaire. Where a response requires additional information, the vendor must attach a written response that adequately details the requested information. Please number each response to match the question number. The completed questionnaire and attached responses will become part of the procurement record.

In order to expedite the required review, when providing additional information for a “YES” answer to Questions 14 a-s, or any other response which requires additional explanation, your information and responses should address the relationship of the issue to the proposed contract. Be brief, concise and to the point. Discuss as appropriate the following:

• Provide a description of the issue and identify the actions taken or currently being implemented to ensure that the issue will not occur again. • State whether the staff and/or organizational component involved in the identified issue(s) will work on the proposed contract. If so, provide information to assure the agency that the issue will not be repeated. • Identify the relationship (or lack thereof) between the product/services involved in the issue and the type of product/services proposed for this contract. • State whether the issue will affect your financial or organizational ability to perform under the proposed contract. • Provide copies of relevant documents or any other information that would assist the agency in its vendor responsibility evaluation.

It is imperative that the person completing the vendor responsibility questionnaire be knowledgeable about the proposing vendor’s business and operations, as an owner or officer of the vendor must attest to the questionnaire information. Please be advised that at the end of this questionnaire, you must certify, under oath, all responses given.

With the added requirements of vendor responsibility review and to continue our methodology of awarding contracts the same day as the bid opening, we must require that any potential bidder indicate their intent to bid on the Natural Gas IFB 21998PF.

If your company previously submitted an “intent to bid” form for the Natural Gas IFB 22023PF, you may submit this cover sheet along with a copy of the Standard Vendor Responsibility Questionnaire submitted at that time to comply.

Submittal of these forms allows us to complete our vendor responsibility review prior to the bid opening for those vendors that intend to participate.

Appendix 1 {Revised: March 2009}

New York State Standard Vendor Responsibility Questionnaire (Use the Uniform Contracting Questionnaire CCA-1, for all construction contracts)

Each Contracting Agency conducts a review of prospective contractors (“vendors”) to provide reasonable assurances that the vendor is responsible. This questionnaire is used for all non-construction contracts with a contract value of $100,000.00 or more and is designed to provide information to assess a vendor’s authorization to do business in New York State, as well as your business integrity, financial and organizational capacity, and performance history. (Review of construction contractors will be based upon the Uniform Contracting Questionnaire developed by the Council of Contracting Agencies.)

Each vendor must answer every question contained in this questionnaire. Where a response requires additional information, the vendor must attach a written response that adequately details the requested information. Please number each response to match the question number. The completed questionnaire and attached responses will become part of the procurement record.

In order to expedite the required review, when providing additional information for a “YES” answer to Questions 14 a-s, or any other response which requires additional explanation, your information and responses should address the relationship of the issue to the proposed contract. Be brief, concise and to the point. Discuss as appropriate the following:

• Provide a description of the issue and identify the actions taken or currently being implemented to ensure that the issue will not occur again. • State whether the staff and/or organizational component involved in the identified issue(s) will work on the proposed contract. If so, provide information to assure the agency that the issue will not be repeated. • Identify the relationship (or lack thereof) between the product/services involved in the issue and the type of product/services proposed for this contract. • State whether the issue will affect your financial or organizational ability to perform under the proposed contract. • Provide copies of relevant documents or any other information that would assist the agency in its vendor responsibility evaluation.

It is imperative that the person completing the vendor responsibility questionnaire be knowledgeable about the proposing vendor’s business and operations, as an owner or officer of the vendor must attest to the questionnaire information. Please be advised that at the end of this questionnaire, you must certify, under oath, all responses given.
