Financing Scenarios:
Primary Case --
SRF Debt & CAW Equity
Alternative Case

Customer Surcharge totaling $99M(2)
Utilize $20M of CAW short term debt during construction
Cost of Capital:
Cost of SRF Debt 2.50%
Cost of Equity: 9.99%

Cost of CAW Debt: 5.00%

(1)
GWR is assumed to cost between $2,500/AF to $3,000/AF based on information provided by the MRWPCA
(2)
$99 M equals about 33% of rate base. Currently, contributions equal about 10% of rate base.(3)
Current market rate for AWK 30-year debt is approximately 4.5%, for both taxable and tax-exempt issuances. S&Pand Moodys recently raised their outlook for AW debt, which could result in lower future debt costs

CAW Strategy to Limit Revenue Requirement
We believe the entire project, including the pipeline,qualifies for SRF loans
We have proposed a rate base offset of $100Mthrough a surcharge on customers bills
We will use $15M - $20M of our short-term creditcapacity to extend the period between draws and limitinterest expense during construction
The surcharge and SRF amounts are exempt fromreal property taxes, at an annual savings of $2.5M

Development & Submission of Financial Model
CAW began developing the current model in February 2012
Main objective was to create a framework for evaluating alternatives that
could be easily updated as cost estimates & other assumptions change andto allow for different capital and financing scenarios
This model was used for the application filed by CAW in April 2012
During the Fall of 2012, CAW worked jointly with representatives from DRAand MPWMD on further development of the model
CAW made the following changes to the financial model based ondiscussions with DRA and MPWMD:
Consolidated key assumptions into one user pageCreated high-level summary output for usersIdentified O&M expenses as either fixed or variable and added an
input to allow plant
production at less than 100% capacityAdded functionality to allow for a contribution to construction costs from an outsidepublic agencyProvided a third financing scenario to allow for a combination of SRF debt and CAWdebt
On 11/15/12, CAW submitted the financial model to the CPUC and all partiesto be used to compute various revenue requirement scenarios11

Capital Financing Considerations #1MPWMD Consideration CALIFORNIA AMERICAN WATER
Response
If available, State Revolving Fund (SRF)
loans should be maximized andconsidered for up to 100% of the projectfunding to reduce costs to Peninsularatepayers.
CAWs financing plan relies on SRF loans
to fund the long-term debt portion of theutility investment. CAW cannot supportMPWMDs proposal that limits equityfinancing to less than 53%, which isCAWs current authorized equity ratiofrom its most recent Cost of Capitaldecision (D.12-07-009).
Financing 100% with debt is not possiblewithout imparting significant financialharm and risk on equity holders as aresult of this project.
Without equity infusion, CAW could be
out of compliance with its currentindenture requirements.

Capital Financing Considerations #2MPWMD Consideration CALIFORNIA AMERICAN WATER
Response
If SRF loans are not available for the
entire project, then require CAW toexamine tax-exempt private activity debtas a funding source for both the debtcomponent, but preferably additionally inlieu of equity.
If SRF funds are not available, CAW will
examine the taxable and tax-exempt debtmarkets at the time of financing. If tax-exempt bonds carry a lower interest rate,CAW will issue tax-exempt debt to theextent it is available. CAW cannot supporta proposal that limits equity financing toless than its current authorized level. Seeresponse 1 for indenture requirement andrisk issues.

Capital Financing Considerations #3
MPWMD Consideration CALIFORNIA AMERICAN WATERResponse
Consider a public agency (i.e. MPWMD)
contribution in lieu of CAW debt or equityto reduce costs to peninsula ratepayers.The contribution would be made viapublic debt and the source of repaymenteither a surcharge on the CAW bill ordirect fees and charges to propertyowners in the District established withProposition 218 process.
CAW has proposed implementation of
Surcharge 2 to fund $99.1 million of theproject construction. Depending upon theplant size, this represents between 37%and 45% of the total MPWSP investment.CAWs financing plan is a balancedproposal that provides significant benefitsto customers, while preserving thefinancial integrity of the utility. TheMPWMD proposal would limit CAWsequity investment and add significant riskto equity holder. CAW has agreed tofurther discuss this issue with MPWMD.

Capital Financing Considerations #4
MPWMD Consideration CALIFORNIA AMERICAN WATERResponse
Even in the event of a CAW borrowing, the
District should offer and the CPUC shouldaccept the Districts potential public creditbackstop to enhance the CAWborrowing credit rating and reduce coststo Peninsula ratepayers. The Districtoffers to substitute its public credit as abackstop to CAWs credit worthiness inorder to reduce the cost of CAWs debt. Itis anticipated that CAWs parentobligation carries a credit rating of Baa2,but the District could raise it to perhapsA1. this might require the use of a stand-by water purchase agreement, a ratecovenant, and other standingcommitments.
American Water Treasurer, Bill Rogers,
CAW President, Rob MacLean, CAW Vice-President of Finance, Jeff Linam andMPWMD General Manager, David Stoldtmet at CAWs offices on September 26th
and discussed the Districts backstopproposal. CAW believes that morediscussion is needed to determinewhether this proposal would providebenefits to customers. Further, Moodysand Standard & Poors recently changedthe outlook of American Water CapitalCorporation debt to positive.

Capital Financing Considerations #5
MPWMD Consideration CALIFORNIA AMERICAN WATERResponse
In all cases, the CPUC should require at
that point in the future when permanentfinancing is considered that the then current market conditions be consideredand, if warranted, the public participationin financing as outlined above be
required.
CAW has proposed that in the case of SRF
or long term debt, financing should bebased on the current market conditions.
The Commission cannot speculate onfuture conditions. The Commission
should only be obligated to review infuture proceedings the actions taken byCAW and not hold control over futureactions.

Capital Financing Considerations #6
MPWMD Consideration CALIFORNIA AMERICAN WATERResponse
If it turns out that State Revolving Funds
require a public partner, as it normallywould in most cases, the District offers toserve in that role.
If required, CAW would consider an
appropriate public partner.
