5.4. ERMUSR 02-14-2006Elk River Municipal Utilities 13069 Orono Parkway phone: 763.441.2020 Elk River, MN 55330 Fax: 763.441.8099 February 9, 2006 Mr. Ronald Reigle United Health Group 9900 Bren Road East Minnetonka, MN 55343 Subject: Proposed Data Center Dear Ron, This letter is in response to your February 1, 2006 inquiry regarding electric and water utility capacity to support your proposed data center facility. The municipal water system has adequate water production facilities and water distribution infrastructure in place to meet your stated requirements of 114 GPM at peak times. Your annual quantity is estimated to be 60 million gallons. Attached is a partial water distribution map reflecting the looping of the water mains in your proposed area. There is a million gallon elevated water tower within sight of your proposed facility. Elk River currently has seven municipal wells, the closest being adjacent to the water tower mentioned above. The water meter is of utility ownership and located inside the facility. This meter will be radio read on a monthly basis. We will need access to this meter for calibration and maintenance on an annual basis. With an assumed 3" meter, a by-pass loop will be required to facilitate meter maintenance. You will also have an un-metered service for your fire protection system. The water connection fee will be the WAC fee of $2000 per unit plus the cost of the water meter. The waste water connection fee will be a SAC fee of $3500 per unit. The number of WAC and SAC units will be determined by the building and zoning department using Met Council guidelines. In regard to your electric requirements, we offer the following solution. The overhead electrical line on Waco Street (directly west of your proposed location) has 3-4 MW of extra capacity to meet your December 2006 testing requirement.. We currently have transformer and substation capacity at our Substation 14 to provide you with 14-20 MW of capacity. If authorization to proceed is given by mid-March 2006; we can secure and have delivered by August 2006, the necessary underground electric cable to deliver approximately 20 MW of capacity through two 10 MW parallel feeders. Installation of these underground feeders can start in late August 2006. Due to Minnesota winters completion of these feeders will be late May 2007. Upon completion of these underground feeders, you will have full 14-20 MW (two 10 MW parallel feeders) of capacity available to you from one source. These feeders will be provided at no cost to you. Per our current policy, the owner will pay one half the cost of metering estimated to be $35,000. This facility will be primary metered with a service voltage of 12.47 KV. By mid year 2008 Great River Energy will have the necessary transmission line capacity and Elk River Municipal Utilities will have an additional substation constructed at Waco Street and County Road 35. This additional substation will provide a second electrical feed. The transmission line upgrades and substation will be provided at no cost to you. You will be required to pay for the cost of the 20MW capacity (two 10 MW parallel feeders) underground electrical feeders from this new substation estimated to be $850,000. Attached is an aerial view drawing reflecting the substation and electrical feeder locations. Also enclosed is the following information for your review: 1) Current electric and water rates 2) Dispersed Generation Program utilizing your on site generators 3) Applications for the following rebates a) New construction lighting rebates b) New and retrof t premium efficiency motor rebates c) Adjustable speed drive rebates d) HVAC rebate e) Custom energy efficiency grant The above five rebate programs are limited to $10,000 each. If our power supplier, Great River Energy, makes more funds available, we will pass on to you the additional funds. We trust the above information addresses your question, and if not, do not hesitate to call. We look forward to be your partners in the successful completion and operation of this project.

I look forward to working with you to find a workable solution to meet our water and power requirements. We are planning to build out 40,000 SF of raised floor space initially with the ability to add another 20,000 SF of raised floor-space in the future. For planning purposes, we will focus or} the 40,000 SF buildout. Water consumption is estimated at 60 million gallons per year or 114 gpm under full load. Estimated consumption will range between 70 and 114 gpm. We will require two water service feeds from different quadrants of the city water loop. The target completion date for the data center is mid-2007 with UHT planning to go online in late-2007. Permanent power wilt be required by late-2006 in order to be able to complete start-up and testing of systems components by mid-2007. The power consumption is estimated to reach 6 MW in the first 6 months of operation (mid-2008), 9 MW by 1st Quarter 2009, and 12 - 14 MW within 2 years (2010). Given the historical growth of this company and its propensity to grow through acquisitions and mergers, it is highly likely that we will meet or exceed these projections. Therefore, we will require the ability to achieve 12 to 14 MW within the first year if our demand exceeds projections. We are very interested in acquiring a second utility service as quickly as possible. The synergy (i.e. power demand) create by UHG and Target will more than justify a second feed to both facilities. We are very interested in learning how you propose to meet this requirement. I would appreciate it if you could respond with the proposed services you are able to provide to us along with a commitment on when we can expect these services to reach our site. We must move quickly so your prompt response would be greatly appreciated. Please contact me if you have any questions or need additional information. We would appreciate it if this information is-kept in confidence until an agreement is executed.

Residential water- exempt from sales tax. Commercial water- subject to sales fax unless exemption ~s Bled Approved Adopted December 13. 2005 effecl~ve January 1, 2006 DISPERSED GENERATIONIINTERRUPTIBLE LOAD PROGRAM DESCRIPTION: Beginning January 1, 2000, Elk River Municipal Utilities (ERMU) provided an incentive to encourage on-site customer-owned generation. The target market consisted of those commercial accounts that already owned backup generators of at least 100 kW, or were considering an investment in backup generation of at least 100 kW due to the critical nature of their business. Effective May 1, 2003, that program was expanded to include commercial accounts of at least 100 kW that are able to interrupt at least 100 kW of load. AVAILABILITY: This Program is available to commercial customers served by ERMU which have sufficient load to fully utilize the output of between 100 kW and 1000 kW of on- site generation capacity or that can interrupt between 100 kW and 1000 kW of load. Customers with on-site generation in excess of 1000 kW or with in excess of 1000 kW of interruptible load may also qualify for this Program, but special terms and conditions may apply. Program participants must agree to operate their on-site generator, or limit operations to interrupt all or a mutually agreed upon portion of their electric load upon notification by ERMU or its designated agent. This Program applies to qualifying customers subject to the following Conditions of Service: 1. The Customer must be operating between the hours of 4 PM and 9 PM and have between 100 kW and 1000 kW of electric load that can be either switched to a standby generator or interrupted upon notification by ERMU or its designated agent. 2. The Customer must provide access to a phone line for notification and remote meter reading. 3. The Customer who selects billing under this Dispersed Generation/Interruptible Load Program must agree to remain on the Program for at least one year. A written Agreement stating term, incentive, terms and conditions of service, and safety and operating standards will be required. See either the Dispersed Generation Agreement or Commercial Interruptible Load Agreement for details. 4. The Customer must provide an acceptable means to transfer all, or a mutually agreed upon portion of the Customer load to the on-site generator upon notification by ERMU. If the Customer does not have on-site generation, the Customer must have a means to reduce load to a predetermined demand level (PDL) within 30 minutes following notification by ERMU. 5. Time and duration of on-site generator operation or interruption shall be at the discretion of ERMU but will not exceed 10 hours per occurrence for those with a generator or 6 hours per occurrence for those who have interruptible load. 6. Operation of Customer's generation and collateral equipment or interruption of load must not cause any reduction in the quality of service provided by ERMU to any other customer. 7. It is the Customer's responsibility to supply fuel and maintain the on-site generator and collateral equipment to meet the electric power requirements during periods of operation. Customer will be reimbursed for fuel used in excess of 80 hours run time at a rate of $.08/kilowatt-hour produced by the generator. There is no fuel reimbursement for those Customers who do not have on-site generation. 8. Notification of intent to .operate Customer's on-site generator by ERMU will be made to give at least thirty minutes notice. In emergency situations, automatic startup may occur simultaneously with notification. Customers without on-site generation will be given 30 minutes to reduce load to the PDL. 9. If the on-site generator fails to perform or the load is not reduced to the PDL during any calendar month, the Customer will not receive the monthly demand credit. If the on-site generator fails to perform or the load is not reduced to the PDL more than two times in any calendar year, ERMU reserves the right to remove the Customer from the Program. 10. The generator installation or method used to interrupt load must conform to ERMU service requirements, and must conform to all local and national safety codes. 1 1. The Customer must continue to purchase all electric energy and electric energy delivery services from ERMU for the contract period. INCENTIVE: Customers under contract to interrupt load down to a PDL, or with operational on-site generation participating in this Program will receive monthly credits based on the amount of electric demand (kW) which can be interrupted or transferred from ERMI1's delivery system to the on-site generator. The monthly credit remains fixed for the years 2003, 2004, and 2005, but varies by season as follows: Monthly Credit Per KW Transferred* Summer (June, July and Aug) $11.00 per kw Winter (Dec, Jan, and Feb) $ 5.~0 per kw Spring/Fall (Sept, Oct, Nov, $ 2.50 per kw Mar, Apr, and May) *Credit applies only during months in which Customer agrees to interrupt load to a PDL or when the Customer's generator is fully operational and/or operates within limits prescribed in the Agreement. CREDIT DETERMINATION: Customer's monthly demand credit shall be based on the amount of load which can be either interrupted or transferred from ERMU's delivery system to the Customer's on-site generator at a time specified by ERMU or its designated agent. There must be sufficient load to interrupt or transfer to the standby generator between the hours of 4 PM and 9 PM to allow for a reduction of at least 100 kW. Compensation to Customer shall be paid as a credit applied to Customer's monthly electric bill from ERMU, and shall not be paid to Customer in cash. That monthly credit shall be determined by establishing a mutually agreed upon average monthly kW demand reduction multiplied by the appropriate seasonal rate in effect for that month. No other credits or financial incentives will be provided by ERMU to the Customer under this Program. METERING: The Monthly customer charge shall be increased to $50 per month to cover the cost of program administration. Cost of special metering required for credit determination will be billed to th.e Customer. ERMU will retain ownership of and maintenance for all special metering required to administer this Program.
