5. Project Structure 5 Developer/Owner of the Plant  Poseidon Resources (Channelside) LP  Plant financed through a combination of debt and equity Debt provided through tax-exempt Private Activity Bonds (PAB’s) Equity provided by Stonepeak Construction/Operation of the Plant  Contractor – Joint venture of Kiewit Infrastructure West and J.F. Shea Construction  IDE Technologies is process technology provider  Plant Operations and Maintenance also provided by IDE

6. Project Risk Allocation 6 Risk DescriptionPoseidonWater Authority Financing Risk– that the project can attract capital (debt & equity) and raise sufficient funds to finance the construction X Construction Risk – that facility is not completed on time, on cost and according to design standards X Permitting Risk – that current permit and environmental mitigation requirements increase X Debt Rate Risk – that market debt rates fluctuate from the currently assumed rates prior to financial closing X Change in Law Risk – that future unanticipated laws or regulations increase operating costs XX Technology Risk – that the plant technology does not perform as expected X Output Risk – that the plant produces less than the projected volume of water X Operating Margin Risk – that the price of water is not adequate to generate enough revenue to pay expenditures or may increase more than projected XCPI Pipeline Operating Risk – the Pipeline connecting the Plant to the regional aqueduct system and appurtenant facilities transport acceptable water to Water Authority wholesale customers X Electricity – the cost of electricity is accounted for in the water price X (Electricity Consumption) X (Electricity Price)

7. Financing 7 Project Financing Structure:  82% funded through Bonds issued via the California Pollution Control Financing Authority (CPCFA) o Plant Bonds issued as Tax-Exempt Private Activity Bonds with Poseidon as the sponsor Subject to Alternative Minimum Tax (AMT) o Pipeline Bonds issued as Tax-Exempt Governmental Purpose Bonds with the Water Authority as the sponsor Not subject to the AMT, but issued with a 5 year early call option Water Authority exempt from repayment obligations if Poseidon does not perform  18% Cash Equity from Stonepeak Infrastructure o Equity invested after debt proceeds are spent; but equity commitment is secured from closing by a letter of credit

8. Carlsbad Project Unit Costs (December 2012 $/AF) 8 @ 48,000 AF/Yr@ 56,000 AF/Yr Plant (Capital, O&M, & Electricity)$1,869$1,682 Pipeline (Debt Service)$197$169 Total Unit Cost *$2,066$1,851 * This unit cost represents the direct costs that are accounted for in the Water Purchase Agreement between Poseidon and the Water Authority in December 2012 dollars. They exclude any indirect costs that the Water Authority may incur for the Pipeline 3 and the Twin Oaks Valley Water Treatment Plant improvements.

9. Impact of Desal Water on San Diego Retail Rates 9 Estimated Retail Impact of Carlsbad Desalination if Applied to CY 2013 Rates (below analysis done in October 2012, prior to closing):  Estimated rate impact as Water Authority supplies: o Based on high range of Carlsbad seawater desalination costs o Based on conservative 2013 sales of 466,000 AF First year of operation sales (2016) projected at 520,000 AF o 5 Retail Agency Average Composite Cost (CY 2012) Fixed Charge $19.83 + Commodity Charge $51.40 = Composite Monthly Bill: $71.23 Other Water Authority Notes: 1. Analysis based on retail rates for the City of Carlsbad, Helix Water District, the City of San Diego, Sweetwater Authority, and Otay Water District. 2. Tier 1 and Tier 2 pricing blocks vary by member agency. 3. Historic total water demand used to calculate member agency specific weighting factors. 4. Individual member agency commodity charge calculated using its average single family residential water use (hcf). 5. Composite commodity charge is the sum of the individual member agency's commodity charge times its weighting factor. Estimated All-in Unit Cost (48,000 – 56,000 AF/yr)* Estimated Rate Impact Monthly Retail Cost Percent Retail Impact $2,290 - $2,041$7 - $510% - 7% * Includes both direct costs billed by Poseidon and indirect costs incurred by the Water Authority outside of the agreement with Poseidon. Actual rate impact will vary by member agency.
