To be assured of obtaining our utility services at the lowest possible costs we employ you to make
recommendations for all possible savings and refunds on our electric, gas, water, sewer and steam

It is understood you will make a technical audit and analysis of the various factors in our rates and advise
us of all possible reductions available in our utility costs.
1. Initially you will examine our previous twelve (12) months bills. Where overcharges are indicated you will
go as far back as possible for refunds.
2. You will furnish us an audit report summarizing the details of your analysis within a period of four (4)
months after your receipt of our bills.
3. Your continuing analysis will cover our future utility bills, which will be sent to you each month, during the
next thirty -six months. At your request you will be allowed to audit our utility bills to verify that recom-
mended changes were implemented. You will also act as our consultants during this time.
4. You will keep the work you do for us confidential and you will not contact our utility companies or negotiate
with them without our written authorization.
We agree to pay you a retainer fee of $ 5, 848 . 00 . Further, we will share with you fifty percent of
all refunds and /or credits secured by you in excess of our retainer fee. You will not share in future savings.

require.
