2.2 Common Terms for All Variable Rate and Fixed Rate Products

1. The expiry date of the current effective rate for each commodity is displayed on your customer Sign-
Up Form. If you do not provide all required information to us in a timely manner, including a valid payment method, then we reserve the right to rescind our offer or void the Agreement prior to enrollment of your site(s) without notice.

2. The Energy Charge, Administration Charge, Daily Fee, Contract Fee, Retail Fee and/or Other Charges
will be based on the current rates in effect at the time you switch to us and will be outlined on your
Sign-Up Form.

3. All Energy Products have an initial term of five years from the last day of the month preceding the date
of sign-up unless otherwise detailed on the Sign-Up Form. For greater clarity: a product listed as a 5
Year Fixed Price will expire on December 31, 2027 if an Agreement was signed during the month of
January 2023 regardless of the chosen Start Date.

4. When the term for a Variable Rate or a Fixed Rate specified in your Energy Plan expires, your account
will be automatically renewed as detailed in Section 3.6 – Auto Renewal Terms.

5. Regulated charges including but not limited to Transmission charges, Distribution charges, municipal
fees, and taxes plus any Supplier charges will be added to the standard monthly charges on your bill.

without penalty unless otherwise noted on your Sign-up Form.

7. An early exit fee will apply for all Fixed Rate products unless otherwise waived in your Sign-Up form.
An early exit is deemed to have occurred if you choose to terminate your Agreement, in whole or in
part, prior to the end of the term and prior to the expiry of your current energy rate. Your Sign-Up Form
details the amount of your early exit fee(s), if any.

8. Standard Energy Products are not available to High Use Electricity or High Use Natural Gas sites. If a
site is discovered by us to be a High Use Site then, at our sole discretion, we can take any of the
following actions at any time while the Agreement is active:
a) modify the Fixed Electricity Rate or Fixed Natural Gas Rate immediately and without notice to
the fixed rates available to High Use sites;
b) add a monthly energy adjustment to future bills to offset the additional cost of providing fixed
or variable energy to the High Use Electricity and/or High Use Natural Gas site(s);
c) continue billing the site on the current Energy Rate;
d) terminate the Agreement subject to 5.5.2 Our Termination Rights.

2.3 Variable Electricity or Variable Natural Gas Rate
The Variable Electricity Rate (“VEP”) and the Variable Natural Gas Rate (“VNG”) are calculated using the
formulas detailed in Section 8 of this Agreement.

2.4 Fixed Electricity Rate Products
1. If you select our Fixed Electricity Rate, we will honour the rate on your Sign-Up Form for all of your
energy consumption throughout the term specified in your Energy Plan, so that your rate will not
change over that term unless otherwise agreed to in writing by both you and us.

2. The cost of electricity consumption on a fixed price electricity product – including products with
special discounted rates and volume limits – will be the sum of the Electricity Fixed Price Energy
Charge plus the Electricity Fixed Price Overage Charge (if applicable) during the billing month. For
detailed calculations please see Section 8 of this Agreement.

2.5 Fixed Natural Gas Rate Products
1. If you select a Fixed Natural Gas Rate, we will honour the rate on your Sign-Up Form for all your
energy consumption up to the total amount of the volume pre-purchased for you throughout the full
fixed price term specified in your Energy Plan.

2. When you elect to switch an actively enrolled Site ID to a new Fixed Natural Gas Product, the Fixed
Natural Gas Rate will begin on the new Product Start Date. When a customer selects a new Fixed
Natural Gas Product for a future site enrollment, then the Fixed Natural Gas Rate will take effect on
the later of: a) the Start Date; or b) the 1st of the month following the agreement signed date. Any energy consumed during the period of time between the Start Date and the Product Start Date of the Fixed Natural Gas Rate will be charged our VNG rate.

3. The total fixed price natural gas pre-purchased for your site(s) will be determined by the historical
consumption of the site as provided by the respective Distribution Company in a Historical Usage File
(“HUF”). If HUF data cannot be obtained for a specific period, an estimated volume will be used
based on typical residential load profiles. Consumption volumes may be adjusted by us, at any time
without notice, if the HUF files are incomplete or volumes are outside of a standard heating load
consumption profile.

4. The cost of natural gas consumption on a fixed price natural gas product will be the sum of the
Natural Gas Fixed Charge plus the Natural Gas Fixed Overage (if applicable) plus the
Excess/Unused Gas Charge during billing. For detailed calculations please see Section 8 of this
Agreement.

2.6 Afford-A-Bill
The Afford-a-Bill product terms can be found in section 10.0 AFFORD-A-BILL and all Afford-a-Bill terms
apply to both the Afford-a-Bill Fixed Electricity and Afford-a-Bill Fixed Natural Gas products only.

2.7 Additional Charges
In addition to the Energy Charge, you are responsible for Administration Charges, Supplier Charges,
regulated charges including but not limited to Transmission and Distribution, municipal fees, and
taxes and any other costs related to the supply of Energy to your Site. We will show such charges
on your bill.

2.8 Small Business Liquidated Damages for Early Termination
If you are a business and you choose to terminate your Agreement prior to the end of the five-year term, OR we terminate your Agreement, in whole or in part, due to an event of non-payment by you, then you will be required to pay us Liquidated Damages for Early Termination. These Liquidated Damages compensate us for any fixed energy supply hedges we have put in place for you, as well as for our retail and administration fees over the remaining term of the contract.

Small Business Liquidated Damages will be calculated as follows:
Max{((Contract Value + Costs) − Market Value), 0} + ( Anticipated Excess Volume or Unused Volume ×
Retail Fee)

2.9 Security Payments “Deposit”
1. We may require the Customer to pay a Security Payment in an amount determined by us, including
without limitation, under the following circumstance:
a) If the Customer does not have a satisfactory credit rating or credit history, as reasonably
determined by us.
b) If the Customer is a business account and has a calculated combined A/R and volume risk
greater than the amount reasonably determined and approved by our internal credit and risk department.
c) If the Customer chooses a rate that is offered subject to the provision of a Security Payment
d) If the Customer’s previous supply of electricity or natural gas was cancelled for non-payment

2. The minimum amount of Security Payment is based on the selected Electricity or Natural Gas rate
and the tariff rate code as assigned to your site by the Distribution Company. If you choose a Variable Rate plan the maximum amount of Security Payment will be equivalent to two times the average monthly Electricity or Natural Gas bill. We reserve the right to request an increase of the Security Payment if the amount originally collected by us is lower than two times the average monthly Electricity or Natural Gas bill.

3. The full amount of the Security Payment must be debited from your bank account prior to the site
enrolment date or, if you choose to switch from a Variable Rate to a Fixed Rate, prior to the start
date of a Fixed Rate.

4. We will pay you an annual simple interest rate of 0.5% on the Security Payment, which will be
applied as a credit on your bill at the time that the Security Payment is refunded to the your
account.

5. If we do not receive your normal monthly payment for energy consumed by the due date indicated
on the bill, we reserve the right to apply the funds from the Security Payment and interest toward
the outstanding billed amount and de-enroll the site(s). If the site(s) are de-enrolled, the Security
Payment may also be applied by us to offset costs incurred for consumption up to the date of
de-enrollment as well as any costs incurred due to the early termination remaining Fixed Rate
energy, such amounts not to exceed the amount of the Security Payment. After payment of all
amounts by you to us any remaining funds including accrued interest will be refunded to you.

6. Return of the Security Payment will be made after a final bill is issued with a zero or credit balance,
where all meter readings up to the date of de-enrollment have been invoiced. Refunds are made by
Interac e-transfer. If Interac e-transfer is not available, we reserve the right to provide any
applicable Refund to you by the method of our choice.

2.10 Paper Bill Fee
If a paper bill has been requested, a CDN$5.00 fee will be added to each monthly bill to cover our cost for processing and mailing.

2.11 Payment Plan Fee
If a payment arrangement has been requested, delaying any portion of your payment after the Due Date, a CDN$3.00 fee will be added to your monthly bill to cover our costs.

4.0 BILLING AND PAYMENT
4.1 Budget Billing
The budget billing plan is a built-in payment plan to help you manage your energy costs by ensuring your
costs are predictable. Budget Billing sets you up with equalized payments for your utilities based on your previous usage and is a convenient way to budget for your utility expenses. Your budget billing amount is based on your annual average historical consumption for your electricity and/or gas site(s) and incorporates your current product pricing.

At the end of the year, we will true up the amount of energy you used with the amount you paid for during the year. If you paid more than your total billing for the year, you are eligible for a refund and/or credit on your next bill. If you paid less than your total billing for the year, you will be billed for the additional amount at the next billing period.

The budget billing program is a monthly program but may be available as a weekly program upon request.

You will receive an email from us outlining your budget billing plan payment. If you are on weekly budget
billing, you may choose the day of the week you would like the payment to be taken, from Monday to
Friday. If you are on monthly budget billing, you may choose the day of the month you would like the
payment to be taken. You must provide us with a pre-authorized payment method for budget billing –
either debit or credit card. We will use the pre- authorized payment method you have provided to us to
process these payments.

To the extent you have insufficient funds to address a payment, we will increase your next payment to rectify the unpaid amount.

Once a month you will receive an account statement which will provide you with an overview of the
balance on your account at that time.

4.2 Regular Monthly Billing
We will bill you regularly by emailing you a billing statement, based on the most current Contact
Information we have on file for you and you must pay your bill in full. It is your responsibility to ensure that we have the most up-to-date contact information – including email address – for your account.
Your billing statement will be processed monthly, the timing will generally follow the meter read cycle
adopted by the Distribution Company. Your payment due date will be on your bill and will generally be
within five (7) days of the issuance of bill to you, which exact date may vary from month to month.
You are responsible for paying all bills in connection with this Agreement, even those we issue after the
end of the Term for costs or adjustments incurred due to consumption during the term.
Subject to applicable laws, you are responsible for all charges on your bill, even if you don’t receive your
bill on time, or at all, for any reason. This includes, without limitation, an interruption in postal service, a
billing email that is not received or a situation where we don’t have your correct Contact Information. We
may cancel this Agreement if you don’t pay your bills on time.

4.3 Payment By Pre-Authorized Debit or Credit Card
1. The full amount of your monthly bill will be scheduled and withdrawn by pre-authorized debit (PAD) or
pre-authorized credit card on the Due Date listed on the monthly bill, typically seven days after your
invoice is issued. By accepting this Agreement, you also accept these payment terms and timelines.

2. If Sponsor Energy agrees to payment of any amounts by credit card, a 2.4% processing fee will be
added to the amount payable at the time of processing and charged to your account on a subsequent
bill.

3. By providing Sponsor Energy with your banking information, you authorize Sponsor Energy to
withdraw from your bank account at the branch of the financial institution where you maintain an
account. In the alternative, if you provide Sponsor Energy with your credit card information, you
authorize Sponsor Energy to charge your credit card based on the information you have provided to
us.

4. You acknowledge this authorization is provided for the benefit of Sponsor Energy and your financial or
lending institution and is provided in consideration of such institution agreeing to process payments
and charges against your account in accordance with the rules of the Canadian Payments
Association;

5. You acknowledge that you have read and understand the full PAD terms and conditions located in
Appendix A of this agreement and that you will abide by those terms and conditions.

4.4 Estimated and Actual Consumption
The portion of your bill related to consumption is based on the actual and estimated metered Electricity or Natural Gas consumption data provided by the Distribution Company, Electricity and Natural Gas
consumption estimates, or consumption data provided by other suppliers.
We also may make estimates if actual data is not available from the Distribution Company or any other
supplier for the billing period. Your bill may be debited or credited as the Distribution Company or we
adjust prior period estimates to actual values.

4.5 Late Payments or Disputed Bills
If we do not receive your payment in full by the due date specified on your bill, you will be charged and
must pay interest at the rate of 1.5% per month (19.56% per year) (“Late Payment Charge”) on all
overdue amounts calculated and compounded monthly from thirty (30) days after the date of the bill until the date that payment is received in full.

Returned payments from financial or lending institutions for insufficient funds or any other reason will result in a minimum charge to you of CDN$30.00 or such higher amount as may be warranted by incremental charges imposed upon Sponsor Energy by your financial or lending institution. For greater clarity, this fee applies to both pre-authorized debit and pre-authorized credit transactions. You will be responsible for all legal and collection fees (including fees paid to our legal counsel) that we may incur in the process of collecting any amounts owing under this Agreement.

If you do not pay your bills on time, we may cancel this Agreement and seek recovery of all related costs.
You may dispute a bill up to thirty (30) days upon receipt of a bill; it is your responsibility to review and
ensure you are being billed on the correct rate and Site ID and notify us of an error as soon as possible.

Fixed Electricity Daily Cap Volume (FEC): means the even daily volume limit calculated using the
monthly SRL divided by the number of calendar days in the month. If there is no SRL limit on the Sign-Up Form for the applicable product, then the FEC is 0.00 kWhs/day.

FEC = Special Monthly Rate Limit / Calendar Monthly days

For greater clarity, if the monthly Special Rate Volume limit is 900 kWhs per month, then the FEC for each consumption day in April would be calculated as follows:
FEC = 900kWhs / 30 days = 30.0 kWhs/day

Fixed Price Special Volume (FPSV): is the total volume of energy consumed during each calendar day of
a billing period up to the daily FEC limit.

ECONSd: means the daily electricity consumption by taking the total individual meter reading
consumption volume for a Site ID and dividing it by the total consumption days for that meter

follows:


Fixed Price Overage Charge (“FPOC”): is the total charge for the Fixed Price Volume multiplied by the

Fixed Price Standard Rate which equals:

FPOC = FPOV x Fixed Price Standard Rate

Fixed Price Energy Charge (“FPEC”): is the total charge for the Fixed Price Special Volume multiplied by
the Fixed Electricity Special Rate which equals:

FPEC = FPSV x Fixed

Electricity Special Rate
Fixed Charge: if a Site ID is contracted for a Fixed Price Special Rate and a Special Monthly Rate Limit

no Special Monthly Rate Limit then this billing item will be the total of the FPOC and FPEC and displayed
as the ‘Fixed Charge’ on the customer monthly bill.

Fixed Charge Overage: if a Site ID is contracted for a Fixed Price Special Rate and a Special Monthly
Rate Limit then the Fixed Charge Overage is the total FPOC for a billing period may be displayed as the

the Site ID by the Fixed Percentage found in this Agreement valid at the time of signup of. The current
fixed percentage (“Fixed Percentage”) is 90%

Fixed Daily Volume (FDV): means the daily volume of pre-purchased fixed natural gas calculated daily
as the Monthly Fixed Gas Volume for each calendar month divided by the number of calendar days in the
month. Each calendar month will have a unique FDV based on the number of calendar days in the month.

For greater clarity, if the HU April value at a site is 18.0 GJs then the FDV for each day in April would be calculated as follows: FDV = (18.0GJs × 0.90)/ 30 days = 0.540 GJs /day.

Fixed Gas Cap Volume (“FGCV”): is the maximum monthly volume limit in GJs, that is allowed at a
special offer Fixed Natural Gas Rate, divided by the number of days in each Calendar month and applied
as a daily volume limit in GJ/day for each day of consumption within the calendar month. The FGCV
monthly volume limit can be found on your Sign-Up Form. If there is no FGCV volume limit on your fixed
gas product then the FGCV will equal the FDV.

Fixed Price Overage Volume (“FOV”): is all daily fixed volume that is above the FGCV and below the
FDV. If the daily FDV is less than or equal to the daily FGCV then the daily FOV will equal 0 GJs. The daily
FOV will be calculated using the following formula:

Excess Natural Gas Volume (“EGV”): is the daily natural gas consumption in GJs that is greater than the
FDV. If the daily natural gas consumption is less than the FDV then the EGV will equal 0 GJs.
Unused Natural Gas Volume (“UGV”): is the daily natural gas consumption in GJs that is less than the
FDV. If the daily natural gas consumption is greater than the FDV then the UGV will equal 0 GJs.
Historical Gas Usage (“HU”): calendar monthly historical natural gas usage obtained from the
distributor historical usage file data (“HUF”) and pro-rated into a unique fixed calendar monthly volume. In the event that recent HUF data cannot be obtained, or the HUF data is missing all or any portion of a
calendar month or any month is outside of a reasonable consumption level, we can use other historical
billing consumption, previously obtained HUF data or customer supplied data to adjust monthly volumes
to fit a standard monthly temperature adjusted consumption profile.

Fixed Price Natural Gas Rate (FNG): means the fixed price Natural Gas rate, in CAD $/GJ, detailed on
your Sign-Up Form.

Fixed Price Natural Gas Premium (“FGP”): mean the additional rate in $/GJ that is added to the FNG
and applied to the FOV. The premium rate can be found on your Sign-Up Form as either a specific
additional premium or tier 2 rate or is calculated as the difference between the standard rate and special rate. If there is no premium rate, or similar rate related to a Fixed Natural Gas product with an upper monthly volume limit, then the FGP is equal to $0.00/GJ.

Natural Gas Fixed Charge (NGFC): displayed as a Fixed Charge or Fixed Charge Tier 1 means the total
charge for the portion of the pre-purchased Fixed Price Natural Gas up to the daily FGCV. The NGFC is
calculated using the formula:

Natural Gas Fixed Overage (NGFO): displayed as a Fixed Charge Overage or Fixed Charge Tier 2
Charge means the total charge for the portion of the pre-purchased Fixed Price Natural Gas that is
considered to be Fixed Charge Overage volume. The NGFO is calculated using the formula:

Excess/Unused Gas Charge (EUGC): means the total of any Excess or Unused Gas charges or credits
using the formula:

Excess Gas Rate (“EGR”): is the daily rate in $/GJ that is the greater of: a) FNG or, b) VNG + $0.89
Unused Gas Rate (“UGR”): is the daily rate in $/GJ that is the lesser of: a) FNG or, b) VNG – $0.50
Natural Gas Floating Rate (“GFR”): equals the VNG + $0.89/GJ
Electricity Floating Rate (“EFR”): equals the VEP + $0.0089/kWh
