Cost Recovery through Pass-Through Tariffs. Buyer is allowed to recover all costs and other amounts incurred under the Agreement from its customers pursuant to a pass-through tariff that is authorized by Section 16-111.5(l) of the Illinois Public Utilities Act (220 ILCS 5/16-111.5(l)) and approved by the ICC. If, for whatever reason, Buyer is not allowed to or cannot recover such costs from its customers through its pass-through tariffs, then, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Agreement, the obligations of both Seller and Buyer, including Delivery of and payment for RECs, shall be suspended upon written notice from Buyer to Seller until Buyer provides written notice to Seller that Buyer is able to recover all of its costs under this Agreement through its pass-through tariff, whereupon the respective rights and obligations of the Parties under this Agreement shall resume as of the effective date indicated in such notice (pro-rated, as applicable, based on the duration of such suspension). During any such Suspension Period, Seller shall have no obligations to Buyer with respect to RECs from the Project. If the Suspension Period continues for more than three hundred sixty-five (365) consecutive days, then Seller may terminate this Agreement and if the Suspension Period continues for more than seven hundred thirty (730) consecutive days, then Buyer may terminate this Agreement. No Settlement Amount or Termination Payment shall be due from or to either Party as a result of any such termination.
Cost Recovery through Pass-Through Tariffs. Nothing in this Agreement shall require Buyer to advance any payment or pay any amounts that exceed the actual amount of revenues anticipated to be collected by Buyer under paragraph (6) of subsection (c) of Section 1-75 of the IPA Act (20 ILCS 3855) and subsection (k) of Section 16-108 of the Public Utilities Act (220 ILCS 5) inclusive of eligible funds collected in prior years and alternative compliance payments for use by Buyer (the "Available Funds"). Buyer’s payments for RECs in a given Delivery Year therefore shall not cause the sum of the cumulative payments to Seller and all other sellers under contracts executed pursuant to 20 ILCS 3855/1-75(c)(1), as well as all other applicable fees, charges, and administrative costs related to the purchase of RECs under 20 ILCS 3855/1-75(c)(1), to exceed the Available Funds for such Delivery Year as calculated under 20 ILCS 3855/1-75(c)(1)(E). For the purposes of this Agreement, the Available Funds under Section 1-75(c)(1)(E)’s rate impact limitations shall be calculated inclusive of any utility-held alternative compliance payments authorized for procuring RECs by order of the Illinois Commerce Commission or any unspent revenues collected by the utility under paragraph (6) of subsection (c) of Section 1-75 of the IPA Act (20 ILCS 3855) and subsection (k) of Section 16-108 of the Public Utilities Act (220 ILCS 5) that the utility is permitted to carry over across Delivery Years. For the avoidance of doubt, payment obligations for contracts executed pursuant to 20 ILCS 3855/1-75(c)(1) and associated expenses within a given Delivery Year exceeding the actual balance of collections made to date under Section 16-108(k) within that Delivery Year would not provide a valid basis for non-payment by Buyer, unless Buyer's compliance with such payment obligations would cause Buyer's cumulative payments for RECs associated with a given Delivery Year to exceed the amount of the Available Funds for that Delivery Year. Buyer is allowed to recover all costs and other amounts incurred under the Agreement from its customers pursuant to a pass-through tariff that is authorized by Section 16-111.5(l) of the Illinois Public Utilities Act (220 ILCS 5/16-111.5(l)) and approved by the ICC. If, for whatever reason, Buyer is not allowed to or cannot recover such costs from its customers through its pass-through tariffs for the payment of RECs Delivered for a Delivery Year, then, Buyer shall provide written notice to Seller of such occurr...

During any such Suspension Period, Seller shall have no obligations to Buyer with respect to RECs from the Designated System(s) except for RECs that have already been paid. If the Suspension Period continues for more than three hundred sixty-five (365) consecutive days, then Seller may terminate this Agreement and if the Suspension Period continues for more than seven hundred thirty (730) consecutive days, then Buyer may terminate this Agreement. No Settlement Amount or Termination Payment shall be due from or to either Party as a result of any such termination. Buyer shall on an annual basis seek an appropriation by the State of Illinois for the Renewable Energy Resources Fund sufficient to allow payment under this Agreement. If Buyer fails to receive such appropriation approval for a given fiscal year, Buyer shall notify Seller of such and Buyer may terminate or suspend this Agreement within thirty (30) calendar days after the date of such notification to Seller. Buyer must provide notice of such termination or suspension to Seller in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement. If terminated, neither Party shall have any further liability hereunder upon such termination.
