• State Corporation Commission of Kansas, Docket No. 25-EKME-315-TAR, Order Approving Unanimous Settlement Agreement -- Attachment I (Unanimous, Comprehensive Settlement Agreement, Aug. 18, 2025), ¶15 order two-reviewer

  “15. Termination of LLPS Service Agreement or Change in Schedule: In order to terminate or change rate schedules before the end of the Term or any Extension Term, the customer must provide written notice thirty-six (36) months prior to the requested date of termination or schedule change. In such circumstance, the customer will be subject to an exit fee equal to the nominal value of the Minimum Monthly Bill times the number of months remaining in the Term or Extension Term, or for twelve (12) months, whichever is greater (the “Exit Fee”). An additional fee shall apply if the customer seeks to terminate with less than thirty-six (36)-months’ notice (the “Early Termination Fee”). In such case, the Early Termination Fee shall be equal to the Exit Fee plus two (2) times the nominal value of the Minimum Monthly Bill times the number months less than the thirty-six (36)-months’ notice required for termination. The Company will use reasonable efforts to mitigate the Exit Fee amount owed by the customer. The Company shall invoice the customer no earlier than ninety (90) days prior to the date the customer has indicated the termination will occur for any unmitigated costs of the Exit Fee and Early Termination Fee based on the calculation described above. The Exit Fee and Early Termination Fee (if applicable) shall be due in full within thirty (30) days of the date it receives an invoice from the Company for such fees.”

  TICK 2: this closes tick 1's flagged open item. This is the actual signed Settlement Agreement text (Attachment I to the KCC's Nov. 6, 2025 Order, which the Order incorporates 'in its entirety' per its own p.14 text). Pages 4-41 of this same 45-page PDF were image-only exhibits in tick 1 and were not text-extracted there; this collector re-fetched the same PDF (curl with a browser UA, HTTP 200, 2.98MB) and OCR'd pp.4-41 at 300dpi via pymupdf+pytesseract this tick. The OCR text above reproduces cleanly (smart quotes intact, no garbled characters in this passage); a companion OCR pass of p.4 (below) independently corroborates the same formula from the Order's own findings section.

  “To terminate or change rate schedules before the end of the Term or any Extension Term, the customer must provide written notice thirty-six (36) months prior to the requested date of termination or schedule change; [If a] customer terminates early, it is subject to an exit fee equal to the nominal value of the Minimum Monthly Bill times the number of months remaining or 12 months, whichever is greater (the Exit Fee). Customers seeking to terminate with less than 36 months’ notice are subject to higher termination fee -- the Exit Fee plus two (2) times the nominal value of the Minimum Monthly Bill times the number months less than the thirty-six (36) months’ notice required for termination.”

  TICK 2. This is the Order's OWN summary (not the Agreement text itself, which is the source row above) -- footnotes on this page cite 'Id., ¶ 15' etc., i.e. the Commission itself is citing Attachment I ¶15, independently corroborating that source row. Bracketed correction '[If a]' applied to a two-word OCR word-boundary error only; the numeral '36' (misread by OCR as '86' due to font/scan artifacts) is corrected here to '36' because it is unambiguously confirmed as 36 by both the companion Attachment I OCR pass (source row above) and by the extractable-text portions of this same PDF (p.3, footnoted to the same Agreement).
