Project/Milestones Taxpayer is a cosmetics manufacturer. Taxpayer has certified in its application that absent award of the California Competes Tax Credit, its project may occur in another state. In consideration for the Credit, Taxpayer agrees to hire full-time employees and invest in a facility, furniture and fixtures, manufacturing equipment, and computer equipment, as part of its expansion in San Bernardino, California (collectively, the “Project”). Further, Taxpayer agrees to satisfy the milestones as described in Exhibit A (“Milestones”). In addition, Taxpayer must maintain the three (3) employee based Milestones (“Total California Full-Time Employees,” “Minimum Annual Wage of California Full-Time Employees Hired,” and “Cumulative Average Annual Wage of California Full-Time Employees Hired”) for a minimum of three (3) taxable years thereafter. In the event Taxpayer employs more than the number of full-time employees, determined on an annual full-time equivalent basis, than required in Exhibit A, for purposes of satisfying the “Minimum Annual Wage of California Full-time Employees Hired” and the “Cumulative Average Annual Wage of California Full-time Employees Hired,” Taxpayer may use the wages of any of the full-time employees hired within the required time period. For purposes of calculating the “Minimum Annual Wage of California Full-time Employees Hired” and the “Cumulative Average Annual Wage of California Full-time Employees Hired,” the wage of any full-time employee that is not employed by Taxpayer for the entire taxable year shall be annualized. In addition, the wage of any full-time employee hired to fill a vacated position in which a full-time employee was employed during Taxpayer’s Base Year shall be disregarded.
Project Specific Milestones In addition to the milestones stated in Section 212.5 of the Tariff, as applicable, during the term of this ISA, Interconnection Customer shall ensure that it meets each of the following development milestones:
Project Goals The schedule, budget, physical, technical and other objectives for the Project shall be defined.
Milestones Subject to the provisions of the SGIP, the Parties shall agree on milestones for which each Party is responsible and list them in Attachment 4 of this Agreement. A Party’s obligations under this provision may be extended by agreement. If a Party anticipates that it will be unable to meet a milestone for any reason other than a Force Majeure event, it shall immediately notify the other Parties of the reason(s) for not meeting the milestone and (1) propose the earliest reasonable alternate date by which it can attain this and future milestones, and (2) requesting appropriate amendments to Attachment 4. The Party affected by the failure to meet a milestone shall not unreasonably withhold agreement to such an amendment unless it will suffer significant uncompensated economic or operational harm from the delay, (1) attainment of the same milestone has previously been delayed, or (2) it has reason to believe that the delay in meeting the milestone is intentional or unwarranted notwithstanding the circumstances explained by the Party proposing the amendment.
