Six suppliers will be awarded to Lot 1 in the format of a preferred supplier list. Successful suppliers will be ranked with the highest ranked being given a higher percentage of hours available which is dependent upon the amount of funding available from the funding partner, and number of applications to assess. See below the allocation structure: Position Percentage of Hours Allocated 1 Up to 25% 2 Up to 20% 3 Up to 20% 4 Up to 15% 5 Up to 10% 6 Up to 10%

Options: Salix reserve the right to extend for two twelve months extensions dependent upon partner funding and performance against KPIs.

Audi of Completed Decarbonisation Works

These could be in the format of three different types of audit: * In-Cycle Audits: The internal audit team requests external auditors to perform technical audits during the project's lifecycle. These audits focus on verifying technical compliance, evaluating progress against milestones reported to Salix, and identifying potential risks or issues. * Post-Completion Audits: After the project is completed, external auditors conduct thorough technical audits to ensure that all objectives have been met and that the project aligns with the approved scope and funding requirements. * Joint Site Visits: In some cases, joint site visits are conducted by both the internal audit team and external auditors to further collaborative working relationships with the external auditors. Lot 2 will have three suppliers allocated to it, also in the format of a preferred supplier list. Audit work will be allocated dependent upon geographical availability and capacity but the annual allocation will be as below: Position Percentage of Hours Allocated 1 Up to 33.33% 2 Up to 33.33% 3 Up to 33.33%

Options: Salix reserve the option to extend for two twelve month periods dependent upon grant funding and performance against KPIs. (Key performance indicators)
