On or before September 30, 2015, Interconnection Customer must have executed an Interconnection Construction Service Agreement for Interconnection Facilities for which Interconnection Customer has cost responsibility. (a) Transmission Provider and the Interconnected Transmission Owner agree to provide for the acquisition, design, construction and/or installation of the facilities identified, and to the extent described, in Section 3.0 of the Specifications in accordance with Part IV of the Tariff, as amended from time to time, and this Interim ISA. Except to the extent for which the Specifications provide for interim interconnection rights for the Interconnection Customer, the parties agree that (1) this Interim ISA shall not provide for or authorize Interconnection Service for the Interconnection Customer, and (2) Interconnection Service will commence only after Interconnection Customer has entered into a final Interconnection Service Agreement with Transmission Provider and the Interconnection Transmission Owner (or, alternatively, has exercised its right to initiate dispute resolution or to have the final Interconnection Service Agreement filed with the FERC unexecuted) after completion of the Facilities Study related to Interconnection Customer’s Interconnection Request and otherwise in accordance with the Tariff. The final Interconnection Service Agreement may further provide for construction of, and payment for, transmission facilities additional to those identified in the attached Specifications. Should Interconnection Customer fail to enter into such final Interconnection Service Agreement (or, alternatively, to initiate dispute resolution or request that the agreement be filed with the FERC unexecuted) within the time prescribed by the Tariff, Transmission Provider shall have the right, upon providing written notice to Interconnection Customer, to terminate this Interim ISA. (b) In the event that Interconnection Customer decides not to interconnect its proposed facilities, as described in Section 1.0 of the Specifications to the Transmission System, it shall immediately give Transmission Provider written notice of its determination. Interconnection Customer shall be responsible for the Costs incurred pursuant to this Interim ISA by Transmission Provider and/or by the Interconnected Transmission Owner (1) on or before the date of such notice, and (2) after the date of such notice, if the costs could not reasonably be avoided despite, or were incurred by reason of, Interconnection Customer’s determination not to interconnect. Interconnection Customer’s liability under the preceding sentence shall include all Cancellation Costs in connection with the acquisition, design, construction and/or installation of the facilities described in section 3.0 of the Specifications. In the event the Interconnected Transmission Owner incurs Cancellation Costs, it shall provide the Transmission Provider, with a copy to the Interconnection Customer, with a written demand for payment and with reasonable documentation of such Cancellation Costs. Within 60 days after the date of Interconnection Customer’s notice, Transmission Provider shall provide an accounting of, and the appropriate party shall make any payment to the other that is necessary to resolve, any difference between (i) Interconnection Customer's cost responsibility under this Interim ISA and the Tariff for Costs, including Cancellation Costs, of the facilities described in section 3.0 of the Specifications and (ii) Interconnection Customer's previous payments under this Interim ISA. Notwithstanding the foregoing, however, Transmission Provider shall not be obligated to make any payment that the preceding sentence requires it to make unless and until the Interconnected Transmission Owner has returned to it the portion of Interconnection Customer’s previous payments that Transmission Provider must pay under that sentence. This Interim ISA shall be deemed to be terminated upon completion of all payments required under this paragraph (b). (c) Disposition of the facilities related to this Interim ISA after receipt of Interconnection Customer’s notice of its determination not to interconnect shall be decided in accordance with Section 211.1 of the Tariff.
