The observation and review confirms that the structure is adequate to support these loads. This assumes that the support legs from the paneLsacks are spaced at 48" and that the top and bottom rail sunnorts do notbear on the same-truss but are staeeered over everv other truss:" It should be noted that only a portion of the roof structure was observed. I do not assume responsibility for any construction flaws or defects that may exist. This letter is to also state that the UniRac PV panel support system appears to work for the City of Wheat Ridge for wind speeds of 110 mph 3 second gust, exposure C and for a roof snow load of 30 psf. Snow loading for the rack system is not rated because they assume that wind loading exceeds snow loading and rate the racking system to support wind loads up to 87 psf. The rack system is rated to130 mph fastest mile (150 mph 3 second gust) and for roof heights up to 30 feet, if the rail spans and cantilevers do not exceed the recommendations of the Installation Manual #227, Pub. 080725-1 cc, Copyrighted by Unirac, Inc., 2008, 26 pages. The racks are attached to the roof framing with 2 - 3" long GRK screws at each L-foot attachment. This appears to have adequate capacity to hold the panels to the roof.

Please do not distribute Page 1 of 3 Authorized Signature for Vibrant Solar Photovoltaic System Proposal Terms, conditions and notes • The utility stipulates the use of STC or PTC panel ratings. AC output of systems is derated as recommended in PVWATTS. • Source for pollution savings numbers comes from www.greenpowergroup.org • Estimated production comes from NREL's PVWatts estimators based upon historical data for Colorado at the chosen test conditions. • All tax figures are estimated and reflect what we understand of the current regulations. Vibrant Solar is not qualified to make tax advice and this should not be construed as such. • Always consult a certified tax attorney before making any decisions regarding a PV purchase. There are issues such as AMT and property taxes which should be considered. • Unless otherwise noted, Vibrant Solar may change the final inverter selection due to engineering or availability constraints. All standard inverters sold by Vibrant carry a 10 year limited warranty. Non standard equipment or inverters may vary in their warranty. • Due to volatility in the market, the prices quoted here are good for 30 days from the date signed by an authorized Vibrant Solar Representative. • Permitting costs are estimated. Vibrant installs all systems to current NEC standards. City and county permitting offices may have modified versions of these standards. If a local building office requires substantial changes to our standard system or requires extra work, Vibrant reserves the right to pass on this extra cost to our customers on a time and materials basis. • The Tilt/Shading adjustment is the theoretical percent of the maximum output from a fixed panel system oriented at 180 degrees to the south and at a tilt of 40 degrees. This number is adjusted downward to account for panel shading and non-optimal orientation. • The annual efficiency loss as shown is based upon the warranted power output by the makers of the selected solar panels. The industry often uses .50/./year as the projected loss. • The deposit includes a non-refundable $400 engineering fee and a non-refundable $250 Xcel application fee in Xcel territory. Occasionally our engineers will find something that needs to be done to make a roof meet building codes. The cost of this is variable and not included in this estimate. • Additional Electrical work required to bring the customer's electrical system up to code will be charged on a time and materials basis.

Unirac also provides a limited warranty on SolarMount products (page 26). SolarMount is much more than a product. It's a system of engineered components that can be assembled into a wide variety of PV mounting structures. With SolarMount you'll be able to solve virtually any PV module mounting challenge. It's also a system of technical support: complete installation and code compliance documentation, an on-line SolarMount Estimator, person-to-person customer service, and design assistance to help you solve the toughest challenges. Which is why SolarMount is PV's most widely used mounting system. The installer is solely responsible for: • Complying with all applicable local or national building codes, including any that may supersede this manual; • Ensuring that Unirac and other products are appropriate for the particular installation and the installation environment; • Ensuring that the roof, its rafters, connections, and other structural support members can support the array under all code level loading conditions (this total building assembly is referred to as the building structure); • Using only Unirac parts and installer-supplied parts as specified by Unirac (substitution of parts may void the warranty and invalidate the letters of certification in all Unirac publications); • Ensuring that lag screws have adequate pullout strength and shear capacities as installed; • Verifying the strength of any alternate mounting used in lieu of the lag screws; • Maintaining the waterproof integrity of the roof, including selection of appropriate flashing; • Ensuring safe installation of all electrical aspects of the PV array; and • Ensuring correct and appropriate design parameters are used in determining the design loading used for design of the specific installation. Parameters, such as snow loading, wind speed, exposure and topographic factor should be confirmed with the local building official or a licensed professional engineer. 2 SolarMount Unirac Code-Compliant Installation Manual moon-OUNIRAC Y Part I.

Step 5: Determine the Topographic Factor, Kzt For the purposes of this code compliance document, the Topographic Factor, Kst, is taken as equal to one (1), meaning, the installation is on level ground (less than 10% slope). If the installation is not on level ground, please consult ASCE 7-05, Section 6.5.7 and the local building authority to determine the Topographic Factor. EXPOSURE c has open terrain with scattered obstruc- tions having heights generally less than 30 feet. This category includes flat open country, grasslands, and all water surfaces in hurricane prone regions. EXPOSURE D has flat, unobstructed areas and water surfaces outside hurricane prone regions. This catego- ry includes smooth mud flats, salt flats, and unbroken ice. Step 6: Determine Exposure Category (n, C, D) Determine the Exposure Category by using the following definitions for Exposure Categories. The ASCE/SE17-05= defines wind exposure categories as follows: EXPOSURE s is urban and suburban areas, wooded areas, or other terrain with numerous closely spaced obstructions having the size of single family dwellings.

Procedure to Select Rail Span and Rail Type [2.1.1 Using Standard Beam Calculations, Structural Engineering Methodology The procedure to determine the Unirac SolarMount series rail type and rail span uses standard beam calculations and structural engineering methodology. The beam calculations are based on a simply supported beam conservatively, ignoring the reductions allowed for supports of continuous beams over multiple supports. Please refer to Part I for more information on beam calculations, equations and assumptions. In using this document, obtaining correct results is dependent upon the following: 1. Obtain the Snow Load for your area from your local building official. 2. Obtain the Design Wind Load, pnet. See Part I (Procedure to Determine the Design Wind Load) for more information on calculating the Design Wind Load. 3. Please Note: The terms rail span and footing spacing are interchangeable in this document. See Figure 3 for illustrations. 4. To use Table 8 and Table 9 the Dead Load for your specific installation must be less than 5 psf, including modules and Unirac racking systems. If the Dead Load is greater than 5 psf, see your Unirac distributor, a local structural engineer or contact Unirac. The following procedure will guide you in selecting a Unirac rail for a flush mount installation. It will also help determine the design loading imposed by the Unirac PV Mounting Assembly that the building structure must be capable of supporting. Figure 3. Rail span and footing spacing are interchangeable. 10 Rai/Span or L Fo 0 rspa%° Step 1: Determine the Total Design Load The Total Design Load, P (psf) is determined using ASCE 7-05 2.4.1 (ASD Method equations 3,5,6 and 7) by adding the Snow Loadt, S (psf), Design Wind Load, poet (psf) from Part I, Step 9 and the Dead Load (p;99 Both Uplift and Downforce Wind Loads calculated in Step 9 of Part 2 must be investigated. Use Table 7 to calculate the Total Design Load for the load cases. Use the maximum absolute value of the three downforce cases and the uplift case for sizing the rail. Use the uplift case only for sizing lag bolts pull out capacities (Part If, Step 6). P (psf) = LOD + I.OSt (downforce case 1) P (psf) = LOD + I.Opnet (downforce case 2) P (psf) = LOD + 0.75Si + 0.75pwt (downforce case 3) P (psf) = 0.6D + LOpna (uplift) D = Dead Load (psf) S = Snow Load (psf] poet = Design Wind Load (psf) (Positive for downforce, negative for uplift) The maximum Dead Load, D (psf), is 5 psf based on market research and internal data. I Snow Load Reduction - The snow load can be reduced according to Chapter 70fASCE7-05. The reduction is afunction of the roof slope, Exposure Factor, Importance Factor and Thermal Factor. Please refer to Chapter 7 ofASCE 7-05 for more information. Note: Modules must be centered symmetrically on the rails 2*), as shown in Figure 3. If this is not the case, call Unirac for assistance.

Use the maximum absolute value of the three downforce cases and the Uplift Case. We assume each module is supported by two rails. w = PB/2 w = Distributed Load (pounds per linearfoot plf) B = Module Length Perpendicular to Rails (fit) Step 3: Determine Rail Span/L-Foot Spacing Using the distributed load, w, from Part II, Step 2, look up the allowable spans, L, for each Unirac rail type, SolarMount (SM) and SolarMount Heavy Duty (HD). There are two tables, L-Foot SolarMount Series Rail Span Table and Double L-Foot Solarldount Series Rail Span Table. The L-Foot SolarMount Series Rail Span Table uses a single L-foot connection to the roof, wall or stand-off. The point load connection from the rail to the L-foot can be increased by using a double L-foot in the installation. Please refer to the Part III for more installation information. P = Total Design Pressure (pounds per square foot psf) Table 8.

Double L-Foot SolarMount Series Rail Span SM - SolarMount HD - SolarMount Heavy Duty Step 4: Select Rail Type Selecting a span and rail type affects the price of your installation. Longer spans produce fewer wall or roof penetrations. However, longer spans create higher point load forces on the building structure. A point load force is the amount of force transferred to the building structure at each connection. It is the installer's responsibility to verify that the building structure is strong enough to support the point load forces. Step 5: Determine the Downforce Point Load, R (1bs), at each connection based on rail span When designing the Unirac Flush Mount Installation, you must consider the downforce Point Load, R pbs) on the roof structure. The Downforce, Point Load, R (lbs), is determined by multiplying the Total Design Load, P (psf) (Step 1) by the Rail Span, L (ft) (Step 3) and the Module Length Perpendicular to the Rails, B (it) divided by two. R (lbs) = PLB12 12 R =Point Load (lbs) P = Total Design Load (psD L = Rail Span (ft) B = Module Length Perpendicular to Rails (ft) It is the installer's responsibility to verify that the building structure is strong enough to support the maximum point loads calculated according to Step S.

Foreign matter will cause bolts to bind as they slide in the slots. Installing Splices. If your installation uses SolazMOUnt splice bars, attach e° the rails together (Fig. 13) before mounting the rails to the footings. Use splice bars only with flush installations or those that use low-profile tilt ,1r t legs. Although structural, the joint is not as strong as the rail itself. A rail should a 1 always be supported by more than one footing on both sides of the splice. (Reference installation manual 908.1, Splices/Expansion Joints.) Figure 13. Splice bars slide into the footing bolt If using more than one splice per rail contact Unirac concerning slots of SolarMount rail sections. thermal expansion issues. Mounting Rails on Footings. Rails maybe attached to either of two mounting holes in the L-feet (Fig. 14). Mount in the lower hole for a low profile, more aesthetically pleasing installation. Mount in the upper hole for a higher profile, which will maximize airflow under the modules. This will cool them more and may enhance performance in hotter climates. Slide the '/8-inch mounting bolts into the footing bolt slots. Loosely attach the rails to the footings with the flange nuts. Ensure that the rails are oriented to the footings as shown in Figure 8, 9, 11, or 12, whichever is appropriate. Aligning the Rail Ends. Align one pair of rail ends to the edge of the installation area (Fig. 15 or Fig. 16). The opposite pair of rail ends will overhang the side of the installation area. Do not trim them off until the installation is complete. If the rails are perpendicular to the rafters (Fig. 15), either end of the rails can be aligned, but the first module must be installed at the aligned end. If the rails are parallel to the rafters (Fig. 16), the aligned end of the rails must face the lower edge of the roof. Securely tighten all hardware after alignment is complete (28-32 ft lbs). Mount modules to the rails as soon as possible. Large temperature changes may bow the rails within a Jew hours if module placement is delayed. Edge of installation area rs t t 1 t Figure 15.

If modules are the Plug and Play type, no pre-wiring is required, and you can proceed directly to "Installing the First Module" below. If modules have standard J-boxes, each module should be pre-wired with one end of the intermodule cable for ease of installation. For safety reasons, module pre-wiring should not be performed on the roof. Leave covers off J-boxes. They will be installed when the modules are installed on the rails. Installing the First Module. In high-profile installations, the safety bolt and flange nut must be fastened to the module bolt slot at the aligned (lower) end of each rail. It will prevent the lower end clamps and clamping bolts from sliding out of the rail slot during installation. If there is a return cable to the inverter, connect it to the first module. Close the J-box cover. Secure the first module with T-bolts and end clamps at the aligned end of each rail. Allow half an inch between the rail ends and the end clamps (Fig.18). Finger tighten flange nuts, center and align the module as needed, and securely tighten the flange nuts (15 ft lbs). Installing the Other Modules. Lay the second module face down (glass to glass) on the first module. Connect intermodule cable to the second module and close the J-box cover. Turn the second module face up (Fig. 17). With T-bolts, mid-clamps and flange nuts, secure the adjacent sides of the first and second modules. Align the second module and securely tighten the flange nuts (Fig. 19). For a neat installation, fasten wire management devices to rails with self-drilling screws. Repeat the procedure until all modules are installed. Attach the outside edge of the last module to the rail with end clamps. Trim off any excess rail, being careful not to cut into the roof. Allow half an inch between the end clamp and the end of the rail (Fig. 18). Check that all flange nuts on T-bolts are torqued to 15 ft Ibs Figure 17 1/2" minimum End clamp Figure IS Figure 19 Figure 20. Mid clamps and end clamps forlipped frame modules are identical.

Otherwise use Arrangement B. Caution: Ifyou chooseArrangementB, either (1) use the upper mounting holes of the L feet or (2) be certain that the L -feet and clip positions don't conflict. If rails must be parallel to the rafters, it is unlikely that they can be spaced to match rafters. In that case, add structural supports - either sleepers over the roof or mounting blocks beneath it. These additional members must meet code; if in doubt, consult a professional engineer. Never secure the footings to the roof decking alone. Such an arrangement will not meet code and leaves the installation and the roof itself vulnerable to severe damage from wind. Leave enough room to safely move around the array during installation. The width of a rail-module assembly equals the length of one module. Note that L-feet may extend beyond the width of the assembly by as much as 2 inches on each side. The length of the assembly equals the total width of the modules.

Clip Arrangements A and B 22 I ' SolarMount Unirac Code-Compliant Installation Manual U N I RACY [3.3.2] Laying out the installing L-feet L-feet are used for installation through existing low profile roofing material, such as asphalt shingles or sheet metal. They are also used for most ground mount installations. To ensure that the L-feet will be easily accessible during flush installation: • Use the PV module mounting holes nearest the ends of the modules. • Situate the rails so that footing bolt slots face outward. The single slotted square side of the L-foot must always lie against the roof with the double-slotted side perpendicular to the roof. Foot spacing (along the same rail) and rail overhang depend on design wind loads. Install half the L-feet: • If rails are perpendicular to rafters (Fig. 23), install the feet closest to the lower edge of the roof. • If rails are parallel to rafters (Fig 24), install the feet for one of the rails, but not both. For the L-feet being installed now, drill pilot holes through the roofing into the center of the rafter at each lag screw hole location. Squirt sealant into the hole and onto the shafts of the lag screws. Seal the underside of the L-feet with a sealant. Securely fasten the L-feet to the building structure with the lag screws. Ensure that the L-feet face as shown in Figure 23 or Figure 24. Hold the rest of the L-feet and fasteners aside until the panels are ready for the installation.

Align the edges of the modules and snug them together (Fig. 21, page22). Trim the rails to the total width of the modules to be mounted. Place a rail adjacent to the outer mounting holes. Orient the footing bolt slot outward. Place a clip slot adjacent to the mounting holes, following the arrangement you selected earlier. Assemble the clips, mounting bolts, and flange nuts. Torque the flange nuts to 15-foot-pounds. Wire the modules as needed. For safety reasons, module wiring should not be performed on a roof. For a neat installation, fasten cable clamps to rails with self-tapping screws. [3.3.4] Installing the module-rail assembly Bring the module-rail assembly to the installation site. Keep rail slots free of debris that might cause bolts to bind in the slots. Consider the weight of a fully assembled panel. Unirac recom- mends safety lines whenever lifting one to a roof. Align the panel with the previously installed L-feet. Slide 3/8 inch L-foot mounting bolts onto the rail and align them with the L-feet mounting holes. Attach the panel to the L-feet and finger tighten the flange nuts. Rails may be attached to either of two mounting holes in the footings (Fig. 25). • Mount in the lower hole for a low, more aethetically pleasing installation. • Or mount in the upper hole to maximize a cooling airflow under the modules. This may enhance perfor- mance in hotter climates. Adjust the position of the panel as needed to fit the installa- tion area. Slide the remaining L-feet bolts onto the other rail, attach L-feet, and finger tighten with flange nuts. Align L-feet with mounting holes previously drilled into the roof. Install lag bolts into remaining L-feet as described in "Laying out and installing L-feet" above. Torque all footing flange nuts to 30 pounds. Verify that all lag bolts are securely fastened. 24 Figure 25. Leg-to-rail attachment SolarMount Unirac Code-Compliant Installation Manual T.'

We recommend removal of the swelling clay to depth of 5' below existing grade. The test borings revealed sandy clay from the surface . to a depth of 20' where no bedrock was encountered. The sandy clay is highly moist below 3' and has a high swelling potential. Ground water was encountered at 15'. INTRODUCTION At the reguest of Mr Archer, this office has conducted a subsurface investigation for foundation purposes on the above mentioned residential site. This investigation and its findings are valid only for the site under consideration. Any other use shall be at the users responsibility and shall , relieve AA Engineers & Associates of any liability. • 888 So Lipon 51. Oenve% Co%rodo 80223 303-936-3423 Subsurface Investigation 3• 3261 Routt Street ~ • Archer Builders : FOUNDATION CRITERIA (cont'd) ' Foundation walls are to be adequately reinforced, both top and bottom, to withstand tolerable differential movement. final evaluation of foundation criteria shall be the subject of an excavated site observation. Soils verification shall be conducted upon completion of excavation by a qualified soil engineer or his designated representative. CONSTRUCTION DETAILS Interior loading is to be carried to the outside walls, if practical, or by interior beams concentrated on colunns to accomplish loading without resulting in an uneconomical beam size. Should slab-on-grade construction be desired, we recommend that 12"-15" of~ the slab soils be•removed and replaced with non-expansive material in 8-10 inch lifts and compacted to 85% Standard Proctor Density. ~ Non-bearing partitions, rough-in plunbing framing and staircase framing in the lower level on slab-on-grade construction, are to be provided with a 2" air space, top or bottom, to prevent straining the upper structure should slab heave occur. Furnaces supported on reinforced concrete pads in crawl space levels are to be provided with a minimun 3" collapsible adaptor between furnace and overhead ductmrks. AA EN6/NEERS A.ND ASSOCIATES /NC.

Denver, CO 80212 At the request of Gene Archer, this office has conducted an excavated site observation of the exposed subsoils at foundation elevation for the above mentioned residential structure. Laboratory tests results of the exposed soils at basement level revealed a low swelling potential. However as revealed by Subsurface Investigation #86521, conducted by this office, the soils encountered at 3' elevation show a high swelling potential. It is therefore recommended that the above mentioned structure,be placed on conventional footing with a maximum allowable bearing pressure of 2,000 p.s.f. and a minimum dead load of 750 p.s.f. Due to the presence of the high swelling soils encountered at 3' elevation, all soil 5' below existing grade should be removed and replaced with a structural fill that is compacted to 100% proctor density under foundation and 85% under slab. Al1 other pertinent recommendations contained in the subject subsurface investigation are to be strictly abided by.. . We appreciate the opportunity to be of service to you in this project.

We recommend removal of the swelling clay to depth of 5' below existing grade. The test borings revealed sandy clay from the surface . to a depth of 20' where no bedrock was encountered. The sandy clay is highly moist below 3' and has a high swelling potential. Ground water was encountered at 15'. INTRODUCTION At the reguest of Mr Archer, this office has conducted a subsurface investigation for foundation purposes on the above mentioned residential site. This investigation and its findings are valid only for the site under consideration. Any other use shall be at the users responsibility and shall , relieve AA Engineers & Associates of any liability. • 888 So. Lipon 51. Denver, Co%rodo 80223 303-936-3423 Sub;surface Investigation 3, , 3261 Routt Street • Archer Builders , FOUNDATION CRITERIA (cont'd) Foundation walls are to be adequately reinforced, both top and bottom, to withstand tolerable differential movement. Final evaluation of foundation criteria shall be the subject of an excavated site observation. Soils verification shall be conducted upon completion of excavation by a qualified soil engineer or his designated representative. CONSTRUCTION DETAILS Interior loading is to be carried to the outside walls, if practical, or by interior beams concentrated on colunns to accomplish loading without resulting in an uneconomical beam size. Should slab-on-grade construction be desired, we recanmend that 12"-15" of~ the slab soils be.removed and replaced with non-expansive material in 8-10 inch lifts and compacted to 85% Standard Proctor Density. Non-bearing partitions, rough-in plunbing framing and staircase frarning in the lower level on slab-on-grade construction, are to be provided with a 2" air space, top or bottom, to prevent straining the upper structure should slab heave occur. Furnaces supported on reinforced concrete pads in crawl space levels are to be provided with a minimun 3" collapsible adaptor between furnace and overhead ductvrorks. , Subsurface Investigation 4. 3261 Routt Street Archer Builders • , CONSTRUCTION DETAILS (cont'd) . Slabs placed directly on the potentially expansive clays may show cracks; these cracks are to be considered as part of the maintenance cost of the structure should their removal be required. To positively prevent any slab cracks a structural slab is recommended with a void underneath. If the structural slab is not desired, the, following precautions are to be taken to minimize and localize slab cracks. The following recommendations will not guarantee against adverse structural defects or flat vrork cracking, due to potentially swelling soils. . Interior slabs are to be placed free of the main structure, internal structural members, and all slab- penetrating plunbing lines. Inerior slabs- ae to be provided with control joints at approximately every 200 square feet. Garage slabs are to be control jointed at the door frame headers from apron expansion joint to interior wall expansion joint. Interior slabs are to be placed without gravel beds, as gravel tends to allow moisture access • to the underlying soils. All backfilling is to be constructed in a worbnanlike manner with the object of providing a stable, compact, backfill material that will resist sub- sidence and provide an adequate barrier to infiltration of surface water. Idealy, backfill materials should be lightly tamped in moistened layers of 8-10 inch lifts and given a slope to conform to the finish grade around the structure. If backfill settlement occurs, same shall be regraded immediately. AA EN6/NEERS A.ND ASSOC/ATES /NC.

Denver, CO 80212 FIELD DATE: 04/05/88 site observation eof the exposed h sub oh 15 ~ tf ~foundationndelevation forV the dabove mentioned residential structure. Laboratory tests results of the exposed soils at basement level revealed a low swelling potential. However as revealed by Subsurface Investigation #86521, conducted by this office, the soils encountered at 3' elevation show a high swelling potential. It is therefore recommended that the above mentioned structure-be placed on conventional footing with a maximun allowable bearing pressure of 2,000 p.s.f. and a minimum dead load of 750 p.s.f. Due to the presence of the high swelling soils encountered at 3' elevation, all soil 5' below existing grade should be removed and replaced with a structural fill that is compacted to 100% proctor density under foundation and 85% under slab. All other pertinent recommendations contained in the subject subsurface investigation are to be strictly abided by..
