Project Overview • CLIENT - Silver Run Electric, LLC, One Tower Center, East Brunswick, NJ 08816 • CABLE MANUFACTURER – NSW/GENERAL CABLE, Nordenham , Germany. Note: In 2018, PRYSMIAN secured the acquisition of GENERAL CABLE, bringing all GENERAL CABLE assets and subsidiary companies under the PRYSMIAN Brand. • CABLE INSTALLER – PRYSMIAN/NSW • START DATE – August 2019 • COMPLETION DATE – November 2019 4

Installation Overview • Seven (7) Power Cables to be installed • Cable installation will be from an in-river transition structure (Delaware Side – approx. 800 ft from shore where Do. W is approx. 2 ft MLLW) to an onshore transition structure (New Jersey Side – Hope Creek Generating Station) • Cables are to be installed from West to East • Power Cables #1 and #7 will be laid with an additional separate Fibre Optic Cable 5

Operational Overview PRE-LAY JETTING RUN (PLJR) - Prior to actual cable installation, it is a requirement that each cable route is proven to ensure it is clear and that the cables will be able to be installed to the Target Burial Depth. PRYSMIAN has an agreement with the CLIENT that a total of up to three (3) PLJR’s will be performed, if necessary, to get to depth. Therefore, during PLJR Operations, ULISSE is anticipated to conduct seven (7) PLJR’s crossing the Delaware River for each cable. Additional pre-run(s) would be required only if and only where, the previous pre-run did not reach the Target Burial Depth. OBSTRUCTION REMOVAL – If, during the PLJR Operations, Target Burial is NOT achieved due to seabed debris/obstruction, then a Dredge Barge will be utilised to clear the debris/obstruction, prior to the burial tool returning to prove the cable route. CABLE INSTALLATION - During the Cable Installation phase, ULISSE will cross the Delaware River seven (7) times. 8

RED – Start Point for ULISSE. All anchors clear of channel with 2 Anchors

RED – Start Point for ULISSE. All anchors clear of channel with 2 Anchors at edge. GREEN (Hold Point 1) – End of 1 st Skid. All anchors to be repositioned. Permission required to run FWD anchors (x 3) across Channel. During this Skid, ULISSE has ability to SPUD DOWN and slacken FWD anchor wires to allow vessels to transit. BLUE (Hold Point 2) – End of 2 nd Skid. All anchors to be repositioned. Permission required to run FWD anchors (x 4) across Channel. During Anchor moves, ULISSE has ability to SPUD DOWN and slacken FWD anchor wires to allow vessels to transit. START POSITION HOLD POINT 1 HOLD POINT 2 15

Before commencing the 3 rd Skid pattern (BLUE), permission must be granted to close

Before commencing the 3 rd Skid pattern (BLUE), permission must be granted to close the Channel to all vessels. Due to the depth of the Channel, ULISSE is unable to SPUD DOWN whilst transiting the Channel. Skid distance to cross Channel is 476 m BLUE/GREY (Hold Point 3) – Position during 3 rd Skid, where ULISSE has cleared the Nav Channel but AFT anchors (x 2) remain across the Channel. If required ULISSE has ability to SPUD DOWN and slacken AFT anchor wires to allow vessels to transit. PURPLE (Hold Point 4) - End of 3 rd Skid. All anchors to be repositioned. Permission required to recover AFT anchors (x 3) across Channel. Once anchors are moved, the Nav Channel is fully clear. HOLD POINT 4 HOLD POINT 2 HOLD POINT 3 16
