Such use shall not constitute an acceptance of such portions of the Work. 14.8 The CITY shall have the right to enter the premises for the purpose of doing Work not covered by the Contract Documents. This provision shall not be construed as relieving the CONTRACTOR of the sole responsibility for the care and protection of the Work, or the restoration of any damaged Work except such as may be caused by agents or employees of the OWNER. 14.9 Upon completion and acceptance of the Work the CONSULTANT shall issue a Certificate attached to the Final Application for Payment that the Work has been accepted by it under the conditions of the Contract Documents.

The actual rebate and incentive amounts for this project are shown in each example. Business Energy Investment Tax Credit (ITC) Businesses that install solar photovoltaic (PV) systems are eligible to receive a tax credit in the amount of 26% of the total PV system cost. Unlike tax deductions, this tax credit can be used to directly offset your tax liability dollar for dollar. If your tax credit exceeds your tax liability you can roll the credit into future tax periods for 20 years. Total Incentive Value: $0.00 Not Applicable to Non Taxable Entities Federal -100% bonus depreciation (Tax Reform Bill) The Tax Reform Bill modifies bonus depreciation under Code Section 168(k) to allow 100% expensing for property placed in service after September 27, 2017 and before January 1, 2023. By increasing bonus depreciation to 100 percent, the new tax bill essentially allows eligible entities to deduct the entire allowable tax basis of the system in the first year of operation. Under the federal Modified Cost Recovery System (MACRS), businesses may recover investments in certain property through depreciation deductions. MACRS establishes a lifespan for various types of property over which the property may be depreciated. For PV systems, the taxable basis of the equipment must be reduced by 50% of any federal tax credits associated with the system.

Advanced Roofing has a documented history of meeting and exceeding expectations in each category. Before selecting any roofing professional, research whether the prospective company satisfies these key areas of concern. 1. Longevity in Business Your roof will last over 20 years, so you want to make sure your roofing contractor will still be around. We suggest using a contractor with at least 10 years in the South Florida Market Check out youremployer's history on www.sunbiz.org. 2. Financial Stability and Bonding Contractors go under because they do not have proper financials in place. Ask for audited financials, bank references, surety information and/or check online at www.db.com 3. Permit Processing The #1 reason for delays in projects is incorrect permitting. Choose a contractor that can show you how many permits they process in your city. Ask your contractor how many permits they process on a monthly basis. 4. Extended Warranties Only contractors with enough experience, square feet installed, and repair ratio can offer you an extra 5 to 10 years on your warranty. Check with the manufacturer and make sure your warranty gets registered. 5. All Under One Roof Using multiple contractors or subcontractors for different trades as Sheet Metal and AC will lead to longer timelines and finger pointing. Ask your roofer who will be working on your roof. 6. Safety South Florida has many tall buildings and without safety protocols and management, an accident can stop or delay your project. Ask for your roofer's EMR ratio. 7. 2417 Service It's 11 PM in August and your roof starts leaking. Who do you call? Require access to your rooring contractor2417 in rase of unexpected emergencies. 8. Reputation, Pride, and Integrity Pictures can say a thousand words. Choosing a contractor that can back up their claims of quality with job pictures, both during the installation and of the final product, can help prevent surprises in quality and professionalism. Ask your roofing contractor for pictures and references of completed projects and in -progress photos. 9. Repairs You have a job to do and it should not be the roof. Ask for references from customers 5 years past and ask how many repairs were needed after installation. 10.Community Feel good about purchasing your new roof. Ask your potential roofing contractors what they do for the community, in addition to their clients. 11. Best Value Proposition Know what you're getting for your money The price is competitive but over the life of the roof, which bid is your lowest cost/R01.

Lightning accounts for more than a third of a billion dollars in property damage annually in the United States.

Let us assist you in providing protection for your residents, employees and customers. Advanced Roofing, Inc.'s fully licensed lightning protection professionals have 3 or more years of design, installation and service experience. Ask us about our no charge survey of your building. ZI M, With the growing trend of "going green," companies have decided to become more environmentally conscious. Join other responsible companies by creating carbon -free renewable energy on your roof. Clients and consumers are becoming more aware of the environmental impact made by companies they purchase from. By utilizing a solar power system on your roof, you are showing your clients the positive impact you are making on the environment. Solar power is the most affordable it has ever been with a 5- to 10-year return on investment. Daylighting Daylighting can replace electric light 70-80% of daylight hours - in many cases, for less than $0.015 per kWh over the life of the building. It is considerably cooler than electric lighting at the same foot candle levels, so it also reduces the cost to air condition the building as well. This can mean tremendous energy savings in buildings that operate during the day, such as schools, offices, warehouses, factories, and retail stores. a ^F=_ Proposal Package Projects Advanced Roofing is proud to conduct work in all segments.

IN 46368 USA Pv-supporIAISal bfron ius.Com www.fronius-usa.Com 101 Advanced Green Technologies Dare To Compare Compiled below is a list of important criteria for any business owner to consider when selecting the right contractor for a solar energy project. Our team has a documented history of exceeding expectations in each category. Before selecting any solar professional, research whether the prospective company satis- fies these key areas of concern, or as we like to say "Dare to Compare". Please rank the top three that are most important to you. _Longevity in Business Your solar energy system will last over 20 years, so you want to make sure your solar contractor will still be around We suggest using a contractor with of least 5 years in the solar industry. *Check out employer's history at your states Division of Corporations website. Financial Stability and Bonding Contractors go out of business because they do not have proper financials in place. Ask for audited financials, bank refer- ences, surety information and/or check online at www.db.com _Permit Processing The If I reason for delays in projects is incorrect permitting. Choose a contractor that can show you how many permits they process in your city. Ask your contractor how many permits they process on a monthly basis. _Protecting Rooftop Warranties Only contractors with enough experience, Megawatts installed, and strong relationships with roofing materials manufac- turer's can ensure that your solar energy system does not void the roof's pre-existing manufacturers warranty. Check with the manufacturer and make sure your warranty does not get voided. _All Under One Roof Using multiple contractors or subcontractors for different trades, such as engineering and construction will lead to longer timelines and finger pointing. Ask your solar contractor who will be installing your system. _Safety Most solor energy systems ore located on the roof, so without safety protocols and management, an accident can stop or delay your project. Ask for your solar contractors Experience Modification Rate jEMRj ratio. _24/7 Service It's noon on a Saturday and your system is not producing energy. Who do you call? Require access to your solar contrac- tor 24/7 in case of unexpected emergencies. _Reputation, Pride, and Integrity Pictures can say a thousand words. Choosing a contractor that can back up their claims of quality with documentation, both during the installation and of the final product, can help prevent surprises in quality and professionalism. Ask your solar contractor for pictures and references of completed projects and in -progress photos. _Repairs You have a job to do and it should not be looking after the solar array. Ask for references from customers 5 years past and ask how their solar array is operating to date, and if repairs were needed after the installation. _Community Service Feel good about purchasing your new solar energy system. Ask your potential solar contractors what they do for their community, in addition to their clients. _Best Value Proposition Know what you are getting for your money. The price is competitive but over the life of the system, which bid is your low- est cost/ROI. 102 �I (1V lip Robert Kornahrens Michael Kornahrens Clint Sockman Founder, CEO Executive Vice President Vice President Robert "Rob" is the founder and CEO of Advanced Green Technologies and Ad- vanced Roofing Inc.
