January 23, 2014 To whom this may concern, SolarRoofHook is committed to excellence. All of our parts were tested by a third party test facility for the following. 1. Uplift test 2. Downward load test 3. Water Proof - QuickBOLT only AME Research facility had a current engineer license per the State of California in 2012 and 2013. Terrapin Testing had a current engineer license per the State of California in 2011. The following is an excerpt from: CALIFORNIA B OARD FOR PROFESSIONAL ENGINEERS AND LAND SURVEYORS g u i d e t o Engineering & Land Surveying for City and County Officials Page 12, Line 27 27. If the license has expired between the time the engineering documents were prepared and the time when the local agency s review is performed, do the documents need to be re-sealed by a licensee with a current license? (B&P Code 6733, 6735, 6735.3, 6735.4) As long as the license was current at the time the engineering documents were prepared, the documents do not need to be re-sealed prior to review by the local agency. However, any changes (updates or modifications) to the documents that are made following the review by the local agency would have to be prepared by a licensed engineer with a current license and those changes would have to be signed and sealed. We trust the information provided will alleviate any request for the test reports submitted to have a stamp from the current year.

July 11, 2016 Mr. Jared Wiener SolarRoofHook 5830 Las Positas Road Livermore, CA 94551 Project Number 1160481C Subject: 90 High Wind Flat Tile Hook (Part # 17632) Laboratory Load Testing Dear Mr. Wiener: As requested, Applied Materials & Engineering, Inc. (AME) has completed load-testing the 90 High Wind Flat Tile Hook; see Appendix A, Figure 1. The purpose of our testing was to evaluate the compressive and tensile (uplift) load capacity of the 90 High Wind Flat Tile Hook attached to a 2"x4" Douglas Fir rafter using two 5/16"Øx4" QS T17 lag screws. SAMPLE DESCRIPTION Mockup samples were delivered to our laboratory on June 3, 2016 and on June 27, 2016. Mockup configuration consisted of three 12" long rafters at 6.5"o.c., screwed to 1/2" Structural I plywood. The 90 High Wind Flat Tile Hook is attached through the plywood into a rafter with two fasteners. TEST PROCEDURES & RESULTS 1. Compression Load Test A total of three tests were conducted for compressive load capacity on June 9, 2016 using a United Universal testing machine. Samples were rigidly attached to the testing machine and a compressive load was applied to the hook. The samples were loaded in compression at a constant rate of axial deformation of 0.10 in. /min. without shock until the hook was bent and came in contact with the test board; displacement at maximum load was recorded. Based on the above testing, the average maximum compression load of the 90 High Wind Flat Tile Hook attached to a 2"x4" Douglas Fir rafter using two 5/16"Øx3" lag screws was determined to be 691 lbs. Detailed results are provided in Table I. Test setup and mode of failure are provided in Appendix B, Figure 1. The specific gravity and moisture content of the rafter was tested in accordance with ASTM D2395, Method A (oven-dry). The average specific gravity and moisture content were determined to be 0.358 and 12.4%, respectively. Page 1 of 10
