It is expected that the PMC and the Board of Directors will consider approving the issuance of the Series 2013 Bonds at its April meetings. This letter provides you with information regarding decisions that individual Participants will need to make in order to move this financing forward. PREPAYMENT NOTICE The Series 2013 Project consists of various work and improvements at the Payson Power Project during the 2013, 2014 and 2015 major maintenance outages at the Payson Power Project. As discussed in the March meetings, UAMPS expects the Series 2013 Bonds will be sold pursuant to a direct purchase transaction. Under Section 4 of the Payson Power Project Power Sales Contracts, you have the option of making a capital contribution to UAMPS for your share of the costs of the Series 2013 Project (a "Prepayment"). Your Prepayment amount may be equal to or less than your Entitlement Share in the Payson Power Project multiplied by the "Reference Project Costs." For purposes of this notice, we have estimated the Reference Project Costs to be $7,140,000. The Schedule of Prepayment Amounts attached to this letter lists the Participants in the Payson Power Project, their Entitlement Shares, the estimated Reference Project Costs and the estimated amount of the maximum Prepayment that each Participant can make. 2825 East Cottonwood Parkway,Suite 200, Salt Lake City,Utah 84121-7077 P:801-566-3938 Toll-Free:800-872-5961 Payson Prepayment notice March 2013 F:801-561-2687 87005105/CJBCP www.uamps.com If you elect to make a Prepayment, UAMPS will not issue Series 2013 Bonds to finance your share of the Reference Project Costs to the extent of the Prepayment. You will need to deposit the Prepayment prior to the time UAMPS sells the Series 2013 Bonds to the direct purchaser. Our current schedule calls for the sale of the Bonds in early May. Presently UAMPS expects all Prepayments will need to be deposited by the end of April. The Power Sales Contract provides that the determination of whether to make a Prepayment is to be made by your city council or other governing body. If you expect that your city council or governing body will want to authorize a Prepayment, please contact me as soon as possible and I will provide you with a form of the necessary resolution. We have enclosed a short response form (Annex A) for your use to advise us of whether or not you will be making a Prepayment. Please complete and return the form to me at your earliest convenience, but in any event no later than April 11, 2013. If you are electing to make a Prepayment, you must also return to me, by this date, an executed copy of the approving resolution adopted by your governing body. If we do not receive a response from you by this date, you will have waived your right to make a Prepayment. If your city council or governing body needs additional time to determine whether or not to make a Prepayment, please let me know and we will make every effort to accommodate your needs. As always, please don't hesitate to contact me at any time with any questions or concerns you may have.
