c) Costs of compensation for site clearance and relocation according to competent state agencies’ decision; costs of reinforcement of work foundations;

d) Project management costs including costs of organizing and implementing project management from establishment of the project till the project is completed and put into operation;

dd) Investment and construction costs including costs of hiring consultants on survey, design, construction supervision, examination and verification and other relevant costs;

e) Other costs including working capital during test run of the plant, loan interests, costs of getting loans during the construction period and other necessary costs;

g) Provisional costs including costs of additional quantity of work and provision for slippage in prices during the construction period;

4. Financial discount rate i (%) applying pre-tax nominal Weighted Average Cost of Capital is calculated with the following formula:

Where:

D: Proportion of loan in total investment as prescribed in Appendix 1 hereof (%);

E: Proportion of contributed capital in total investment as prescribed in Appendix 1 hereof (%);

n: Economic life of Standard Power Plant as prescribed in Appendix 1 enclosed herewith (year);

n_D: Average time of paying debt prescribed in Appendix 1 enclosed herewith (year);

R_d: Loan interest determined according to Point a of this Clause (%);

r_e: Pre-tax rate of return over contributed capital determined according to Point b of this Clause (%);

a) Loan interest r_D (%) is calculated on the basis of Weighted Average Cost of Capital interest rate of local and foreign currency loans with the following formula:

r_d = D_F x r_d,F + D_D x r_d,D

Where:

D: Proportion of foreign currency loan in total loan as prescribed in Appendix 1 hereof (%);

D: Proportion of local currency loan in total loan as prescribed in Appendix 1 hereof (%);

r_dF: Foreign currency loan interest rate is determined by adding average value of US dollar interest rate swap (10-year term) in 36 consecutive months preceding to the year of issuance of cost frame on London interbank market (LIBOR swaps) and annual average bank service fee, guarantee fee and relevant tax (3%) or promulgated by the Ministry of Industry and Trade in the electricity generation cost frame (%/year).

r_d,D: Local currency loan interest rate is determined by adding average Vietnam dong deposit rate (12-month term) intended for individuals in five consecutive years preceding to the year of issuance of cost frame, determined at September 30 annually, by four commercial banks (Joint stock commercial Bank for Foreign Trade of Vietnam, Vietnam Joint Stock Commercial Bank for Industry and Trade, the Joint Stock Commercial Bank for Investment and Development, Vietnam Bank for Agriculture and Rural Development, or lawful successors to these banks) and annual average bank service fee (3.5%) or promulgated by the Ministry of Industry and Trade in the electricity generation cost frame (%/year).

b) Pre-tax rate of return over contributed capital r_e (%) calculated with the following formula:

Where:

r_e,pt: Post-tax rate of return over contributed capital is 12%;

T: Average enterprise income tax rate during economic life of Standard Power Plant determined according to the State’s applicable regulations (%).

5. Annual average electricity at the point of delivery A_bq (kWh) of Standard Power Plant calculated with the following formula:

Article 8. Method of determination of variable cost of Standard Power Plant for the year of enforcement of cost frame

1. Variable cost of Standard Power Plant for the year of enforcement of the cost frame (VC) is the component to recover costs of fuel and other variable costs calculated with the following formula:

VC = HR x P_nlc x (1+f)

Where:

VC: Variable cost of Standard Power Plant (kW);

HR: Fuel loss rate calculated at load level prescribed in Appendix 1 hereof in kg/kWh or BTU/kWh;

F: Percentage of total cost of operation, secondary fuel - materials and other variable costs for electricity generation compared with cost of key fuel and prescribed in Appendix 1 hereof (%);

P_nlc: Cost of key fuel of Standard Power Plant and not including cost of transport; for coal-fired power plant, cost of loss, management, and insurance (if any) is included; in case the cost of transport specified in the fuel supply contract can not break down, the cost of key fuel is determined according to the price laid down in the contract for purchase of key fuel; P_nlc is calculated in VND/kg or VND/BTU.
