              (a)  In the event the Management Committee decides to dissolve the Company and trigger the Windup Events, on and after the date of this decision, the Company shall continue its existence only for such purpose until the completion of the Windup Events, at which time the Termination Date will be deemed to have occurred.

              (d)  In the event that by the end of the Initial Term or the Extension Term then in effect (if applicable), the Management Committee has not agreed on a course of action and neither Member has exercised its right to purchase the Ownership Interest of the other Member, then, within six (6) months after the end of the Initial Term or the previous Extension Term (as applicable), either Member may initiate the Windup Events and this Agreement shall thereafter remain in effect only for the purpose of dissolving the Company and undertaking the Windup Events and, upon completion thereof, the Termination Date will be deemed to have occurred.  Any failure by the Management Committee to agree on a course of action under this Section 2.9 shall not constitute a Dispute or Controversy.

              (e)  The existence of the Company as a separate legal entity shall continue until the cancellation of the Company's Certificate of Formation in the manner required by the Delaware Act.

ARTICLE 3
OWNERSHIP INTERESTS AND CAPITAL CONTRIBUTIONS

Section 3.1. Members and Ownership Interests.  Upon the making of the initial Capital Contributions set forth in Section 3.2, the Members shall have the following initial Ownership Interests in the Company:

Members	Ownership Interests
Calpine	50%
Acadia Holdings	50%

          Section 3.2.  Initial Capital Contributions .

3.2.1. Initial Capitalization.  Contemporaneously with the execution and delivery of the Original Agreement, each Member made, or caused its Affiliate to make on its behalf, a Capital Contribution in cash in the following respective amounts:

Calpine	$1,000
Acadia Holdings	$1,000

These amounts have been added to the Capital Account of each respective Member.

 

      3.2.2.  In-Kind Contributions.  On the Contribution Date (as defined below), each Member contributed, or caused its Affiliate to contribute on its behalf, to the Company the

-6-

respective assets and properties identified on Appendix B.  All such assets and properties were contributed with warranties of title by, through or under the contributing Member, but not otherwise, free and clear of any and all liens or security interests or other claims by third parties, and any and all additional Encumbrances which could adversely affect the Company's ability, in keeping with the Operating Standards, to incorporate into, or use such asset or property in connection with, the Project.  Upon such contribution, there was added to the Capital Account of each respective Member an amount equal to the sum of all Third Party Expenses incurred by the contributing Member in acquiring each such asset, as approved by the Management Committee, and the Members agreed that such an amount was the Fair Market Value as of the date of contribution of each such asset.  Each Member shall keep accurate and complete records of all Third Party Expenses incurred by it or its Affiliates in acquiring assets that are contributed to the Company and, to assist the Management Committee in determining the amount to be added to the contributing Member's Capital Account with respect to each contributed asset, each Member shall provide such documentation of its expenses as the Management Committee may request.  The Members agree that the aggregate Third Party Expenses incurred as of January 31, 2000 by each Member in acquiring the assets identified on Exhibit B to be contributed by such Member to the Company are the amounts set forth on Exhibit B.  Upon conveyance, such assets and property shall become Company Assets.  On the Contribution Date (after the appropriate additions to the Capital Accounts have been made), the Member whose Capital Account balance was lower contributed, or caused its Affiliate to contribute on its behalf, cash in an amount equal to the difference between its Capital Account balance and the other Member's Capital Account balance so that, as a result, the Members' Capital Accounts was equal on the Contribution Date.

                    3.2.3.  Actions Prior to Contribution Date .   From and after the Effective Time, as part of its Phase I development responsibilities under Appendix E, Calpine covenants to (i) pursue negotiations with each respective vendor as to the final form of the Combustion Turbine Purchase Contract, the Steam Turbine Purchase Contract and the HRSG Purchase Contract and (ii) make all payments that (1) may be required by such vendors in order to reserve such equipment prior to the date such contracts are executed by the Company or (2) may be required under such contracts once signed by Calpine on the Management Committee's direction, prior to the date such contracts are contributed and assigned by Calpine to the Company, in each case as necessary to timely secure such equipment for the Project in accordance with the Development Plan and Construction Schedule attached as Appendix J (the "Development Plan").  Payments made by Calpine pursuant to clause (ii) of the preceding sentence shall constitute Third Party Expenses, the amount of which shall be added to Calpine's Capital Account in accordance with Section 3.2.2.  The Combustion Turbine Purchase Contract, the Steam Turbine Purchase Contract and the HRSG Purchase Contract shall each require the approval of the Management Committee in advance of their execution.  These contracts are anticipated to be entered into by and between the Company and the respective vendors on or after the Contribution Date; however, if so directed by the Management Committee, Calpine will enter into one or more of such contracts on or before the Contribution Date, and if so, in accordance with the provisions of Section 3.2.4, Calpine will assign and contribute such contracts to the Company (and obtain all necessary consents from such vendors as may be required for such assignment).  Calpine guarantees that the purchase price for each of the four (4) F class combustion turbine generators to be purchased under the Combustion Turbine Purchase Contract will not exceed $34,500,000 (except to the extent changes in the scope of the Project result in a higher cost), and Calpine will

-7-

pay any amount per turbine in excess of such price without being entitled to reimbursement by the Company or to any addition to its Capital Account for such excess cost.

3.2.4. Contribution Date; Contribution Deadline.  The “Contribution Deadline” shall be the date that is forty-five (45) days after the Effective Time or, if such day is not a Business Day, the next Business Day.  The “Contribution Date” shall be the date that is three (3) Business Days after the date on which both the Company and Siemens Westinghouse Power Corporation have executed the Combustion Turbine Purchase Contract (or, as the case may be, the date on which the Combustion Turbine Purchase Contract previously executed by Calpine, on the Management Committee’s direction, and Siemens Westinghouse Power Corporation is assigned by Calpine to the Company).  If the Combustion Turbine Purchase Contract is not executed by the Company (or executed by Calpine and assigned to the Company) on or before the Contribution Deadline, Acadia Holdings, in its sole discretion, may elect, by written notice to Calpine, either to (a) extend the Contribution Deadline for a reasonable time in order for the Combustion Turbine Purchase Contract to be executed by the Company (or executed by Calpine and assigned to the Company, if the Management Committee so directs), not to exceed sixty (60) days after the original Contribution Deadline, or (b) trigger the Windup Events in accordance with Article 15.  Failure by Acadia Holdings to provide notice in the foregoing circumstance within five (5) Business Days following the original Contribution Deadline shall be deemed an election to extend the Contribution Deadline until the sixtieth (60th) day after the original Contribution Deadline.  If Acadia Holdings elects to extend the Contribution Deadline, but the Combustion Turbine Purchase Contract is not executed by the Company (or executed by Calpine and assigned to the Company) on or before the extended Contribution Deadline, the Windup Events shall be commenced in accordance with Article 15.  If the Windup Events are commenced under this Section 3.2.4, then, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Section 15.2.3, following reasonable advance notice by Acadia Holdings to Calpine, within three (3) Business Days after Acadia Holdings tenders reimbursement to Calpine for all payments made by Calpine to the steam turbine generator vendor to reserve the steam turbine generators for the Project and under the Steam Turbine Purchase Contract, Calpine shall assign to Acadia Holdings the Steam Turbine Purchase Contract (provided the Steam Turbine Purchase Contract was previously entered into by Calpine).

 

            Section 3.3.  Further Contributions.

                    3.3.1.  Maximum Aggregate Capital Contributions.  Subject to the provisions of Section 3.4, each Member agrees to make such further Pro Rata Capital Contributions necessary to fund the Project Costs as they are incurred in accordance with the drawdown schedule attached to the Project Budget and Section 6.1; provided, however, that each Member's aggregate Capital Contribution obligations, including all contributions pursuant to Section 3.2.2, shall not exceed the amount set forth below opposite such Member's name unless otherwise agreed to by such Member:

Calpine	$250,000,000
Acadia Holdings	$250,000,000

-8-

 3.3.2. Maximum Aggregate Capital Contribution Reduced by Guarantees.  Notwithstanding Section 3.3.1, the maximum aggregate Capital Contribution obligations set forth above for a Member shall be reduced (but not below zero) on a dollar-for-dollar basis by the maximum aggregate payment obligation then currently guaranteed from time to time by such Member or such Member’s Affiliate or Affiliates under Third Party Guarantee(s) for so long as such Third Party Guarantee(s) continue to be in effect.

                    3.3.3.  Payments by Affiliate Guarantors Prior to Commercial Operation Date.  Any amount actually paid before the Commercial Operation Date by an Affiliated Guarantor under a Third Party Guarantee will be (i) deemed to be a Capital Contribution of the Member that is, or is an Affiliate of, such Affiliated Guarantor, (ii) applied against and reduce such Member's obligations to make Capital Contributions that next come due following the date of payment, and (iii) added to the Capital Account of such Member in accordance with Section 3.7(a) as of the date of payment.  The foregoing shall be in lieu of any rights of subrogation or similar rights that the Affiliated Guarantor may otherwise have under Applicable Law.

                    3.3.4.  Payments by Affiliate Guarantors On or After Commercial Operation Date.  Any amount actually paid on or after the Commercial Operation Date by an Affiliated Guarantor under a Third Party Guarantee will, as of the date of payment, automatically become a Subordinated Obligation (as defined in Section 3.3.5) in favor of such Affiliated Guarantor.

                    3.3.5.  Subordinated Obligations.  For purposes of this Section 3.3, "Subordinated Obligation" means an obligation of the Company that is subordinated in right of payment to all operating expenses of the Company and to all debt service owing to any Person that is not a Member or an Affiliate of any Member, but that is senior in right of payment to any and all other debt service or debt obligations of the Company to any Member or any Affiliate of any Member (including any Contribution Loan) and senior in right of payment to all distributions in respect of Ownership Interests.  If the Company's available cash at any time is insufficient to pay all outstanding Subordinated Obligations at that time, the available cash shall be applied to the outstanding Subordinated Obligations pro-rata according to the respective outstanding amounts of the Subordinated Obligations.  Any amount owing as a Subordinated Obligation hereunder shall accrue interest at the Default Rate from the date such obligation arose by virtue of an Affiliate Guarantor's payment under a Third Party Guarantee until the date the Company repays the applicable Affiliated Guarantor.

            Section 3.4.  Election to Not Make Further Capital Contributions.

                    3.4.1.  Opt-Out Notice and Non-Electing Member's Election.  Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 3.3, at any time prior to the Commercial Operation Date, either Member (the "Electing Member") may make a one-time election to terminate its obligation to fund any future Capital Contributions by delivering notice thereof (the "Opt-Out Notice") to the other Member (the "Non-Electing Member"), and upon completion of the procedures in this Section 3.4, to terminate all its obligations to make any future Capital Contributions to the Company.  In such event, any future failure to fund Capital Contributions by the Electing Member (except as required in this Section 3.4) shall not constitute an Event of Default hereunder.  The Opt-Out Notice shall state that the Electing Member has elected to terminate its

-9-

obligation to fund any future Capital Contributions required under this Agreement and shall either (i) offer to sell to the Non-Electing Member or its designee all of the Electing Member's Ownership Interest for a sum equal to ninety-seven and one half percent (97.5%) of the Electing Member's Capital Account balance as of the date of the Opt-Out Notice plus one hundred percent (100%) of such Member's Capital Contributions funded following delivery of the Opt-Out Notice or (ii) request that the Non-Electing Member assume the Electing Member's obligation to fund its Pro Rata share of all future Capital Contributions required under this Agreement following the thirtieth (30th) day after delivery of the Opt-Out Notice.  An Opt-Out Notice shall be irrevocable.  Regardless of which option the Electing Member offers the Non-Electing Member, the Electing Member shall continue to be obligated to fund its Pro Rata share of all Capital Contributions required under this Agreement during the thirty (30) day period following delivery of the Opt-Out Notice.  On or before the thirtieth (30th) day following delivery of the Opt-Out Notice, the Non-Electing Member shall, by notice to the Electing Member, either (a) accept the offer given the Non-Electing Member to buy, or cause its designee to buy, the Electing Member's Ownership Interest or fund the Electing Member's Pro Rata share of future Capital Contributions or (b) elect to trigger the Windup Events in accordance with Article 15.  Failure by the Non-Electing Member to deliver such notice shall be deemed an election to trigger the Windup Events.  In the event the Non-Electing Member elects to trigger the Windup Events, the Electing Member's election to terminate its obligations hereunder shall be deemed null and void, and all Members shall continue to be bound by their respective obligations hereunder until the Windup Events have been concluded and the Company is terminated.

3.4.2. Buy-Out of Ownership Interest.  In the event the Electing Member offers to sell its Ownership Interest to the Non-Electing Member and the Non-Electing Member accepts such offer, the purchase and sale of the Electing Member’s Ownership Interest shall close on the date that is ninety (90) days following receipt by the Non-Electing Member of the Electing Member’s Opt-Out Notice.  The purchase price for the Electing Member’s Ownership Interest, calculated in accordance with clause (i) of the third sentence of Section 3.4.1, shall be paid at closing.  The Electing Member shall convey its Ownership Interest to the Non-Electing Member or its designee at closing free and clear of any and all Encumbrances or claims by third parties (other than a security interest securing any Project Financing previously or concurrently approved by the Management Committee), and the Electing Member shall give such warranties and representations of title, corporate authority and due authorization to the Non-Electing Member as are customary in a sale of a membership interest in a closely held limited liability company.

   3.4.3. Funding of Electing Member’s Pro Rata Share.  In the event the Electing Member offers the Non-Electing Member the right to assume the Electing Member’s obligation to fund its Pro Rata share of Capital Contributions required under this Agreement, and the Non-Electing Member accepts such offer, the Non-Electing Member shall be obligated to fund the Electing Member’s Pro Rata share of all future Capital Contributions required by this Agreement, as an additional Capital Contribution, following the thirtieth (30th) day following receipt by the Non-Electing Member of the Electing Member’s Opt-Out Notice.  Upon each such contribution, the Ownership Interests of the Members shall be automatically adjusted to correspond to the percentage each Member’s Capital Contributions bears to the aggregate of all

-10-

Members' Capital Contributions.  The Management Committee shall give all Members notice of such adjustment to the Ownership Interests and the Capital Accounts.

   Section 3.5. No Interest on Capital Contributions.  No Member is entitled to interest on its Capital Contributions.

            Section 3.6.  Contribution Loans .

            (a)  Should there occur a Contribution Default as to any Member (a "Noncontributing Member"), then the Member which has made its required Capital Contributions (such Member being the "Contributing Member") shall have the right, but not the obligation, to advance such amount directly to the Company as a loan to the Noncontributing Member (a "Contribution Loan"), without prejudice to the Contributing Member's other rights hereunder, including the right to declare an Event of Default under Article 18.

           (b)  Each Contribution Loan shall bear interest at a rate equal to the Default Rate.  A Noncontributing Member shall repay its Contribution Loan on a first priority basis out of any and all subsequent distributions to which the Noncontributing Member would otherwise be entitled under this Agreement (and the Company and the Management Committee are hereby irrevocably directed to pay all such distributions directly to the Contributing Member), with all principal and interest in any event being due in full on the first anniversary of the date such Contribution Loan is made.  All payments on account of a Contribution Loan shall be applied first to interest and then to principal until the Contribution Loan is repaid in full.

           (c)  A Contributing Member participating in a Contribution Loan may designate an Affiliate to make a Contribution Loan hereunder on such Member's behalf.

           (d)  The Contributing Member's Contribution Loan shall be secured by a security interest in the noncontributing Member's Ownership Interest and all proceeds thereof, including all distributions attributable thereto, and each Member shall grant to the other a security interest therein to secure its obligation to repay any Contribution Loan together with interest thereon.  Such security interest shall at all times be subordinate to any security interest granted by the Members in connection with any Project Financing.

Section 3.7.  Capital Accounts.  Separate Capital Accounts shall be maintained for each Member and shall consist of the sum of (a) the cumulative amount of any cash contributed or deemed to have been contributed to the capital of the Company by such Member; plus (b) the Gross Asset Value, as of the date of contribution, of any property other than cash contributed to the capital of the Company by such Member (net of liabilities secured by such contributed property that the Company is considered to assume or take subject to under Section 752 of the Code); plus (c) the cumulative amount of the Company’s Profits that has been allocated to such Member hereunder; plus (d) any items in the nature of income or gain which are specially or curatively allocated pursuant to Sections 13.3 through 13.10; plus (e) the amount of any Company liabilities assumed by such Member or which are secured by any asset of the Company distributed to such Member; minus (f) the cumulative amount of cash and the Gross Asset Value, as of the date of distribution, of all other property that has been distributed to such Member or deemed to have been distributed to such Member hereunder by the Company (net of liabilities

-11-

secured by such distributed property that the Member is considered to assume or take subject to under Section 752 of the Code); minus (g) the cumulative amount of the Company's Losses that have been allocated to such Member hereunder; minus (h) any items in the nature of deductions or losses which are specially or curatively allocated pursuant to Sections 13.3 through 13.10 hereof; minus (i) the amount of any liabilities of such Member assumed by the Company or which are secured by any property contributed by such Member to the Company.  All of the provisions of this Agreement relating to the maintenance of Capital Accounts are intended to comply with Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-1(b) or any successor Treasury Regulations governing the treatment of capital accounts and shall be interpreted and applied in a manner consistent with such Treasury Regulations.

Section 3.8. Non-Liability of Members.  No Member shall be liable for the debts, liabilities, contracts or other obligations of the Company except to the extent of any unpaid Capital Contributions such Member is required to make to the Company pursuant to the terms of this Agreement and such Member’s share of the assets (including undistributed revenues) of the Company.

 

            Section 3.9.  Partition.  Each Member waives any and all rights that it may have to maintain an action for partition of the Company Assets.

            Section 3.10.  Resignation.  Except as provided herein, a Member may not resign from the Company prior to the dissolution of the Company and conclusion of the Windup Events.

The Chairman shall have the authority to sign for and bind the Company to all agreements, subject to the prior approval of the Management Committee.  The Chairman will have the same voting power as the other Representatives and will not have any right to cast any tie-breaking or special vote of any kind.

                (b)  The Chairman or any Representative may invite additional attendees to meetings of the Management Committee.  Such attendees, who shall be identified at the

-17-

commencement of such meeting, shall have no power to vote on any matters but may participate in discussions in accordance with the Management Committee's rules of order.

              (c)  The Management Committee shall also designate a Secretary of the Management Committee, who may or may not be a Representative or Alternate.  The Secretary shall be responsible for maintaining all minutes and other necessary records of the meetings of the Management Committee and shall be authorized to execute and deliver any and all certificates acknowledging actions approved by the Management Committee.  Within ten (10) days after each Management Committee meeting, the Secretary shall send to each Member for review and approval a copy of the minutes of such meeting.

                    4.3.8.  Quorum; Simple Majority Vote Required for Action.  The Management Committee may act only if a quorum is present, whether in person or by telephonic means.  A quorum shall consist of Representatives representing a Simple Majority.  Except as set forth in Sections 4.3.9 and 4.3.10, the Management Committee shall act by a Simple Majority vote cast by the Representative(s) at a meeting at which a quorum of the Representative(s) are present.  In the event that a Simple Majority vote is not reached on a matter before the Management Committee requiring a Simple Majority vote, such event shall constitute a Dispute or Controversy, and either Member may seek resolution of such matter under the terms of Article 20.  In the event that a Simple Majority decision is reached, the matter shall be acted upon by the Company.

By contrast to matters requiring approval by a Simple Majority vote under Section 4.3.8, failure to secure a Super Majority vote on any matter that requires approval by Super Majority vote under this Section 4.3.9 shall not constitute a Dispute or Controversy and shall not be subject to resolution under the terms of Article 20.

-18-

                    4.3.10.  Unanimous Approval Required.  The following matters shall require a vote of one hundred percent (100%) of the Ownership Interests in order to be acted upon by the Company:

By contrast to matters requiring approval by a Simple Majority vote under Section 4.3.8, failure to secure a unanimous vote on any matter that requires approval by unanimous vote under this Section 4.3.10 shall not constitute a Dispute or Controversy and shall not be subject to resolution under the terms of Article 20.

                    5.3.3.  Reporting Responsibilities.  The Project Director shall furnish monthly progress reports to the Management Committee and otherwise consult with the Management Committee on a regular basis as to its directives and the progress of the Project.  In addition, the Project Director will hold weekly status meetings in order to keep all participants fully informed as to Project activities.  All the individuals identified on Appendix E as having responsibility for a Phase I Activity, and any other individuals requested by a Member, may participate in such meetings in person or by telephone via a 1-800 conference call to be arranged by the Project Director.  The Project Director shall use good faith efforts to keep Acadia Holdings informed on a regular basis with regard to all aspects of the Phase I Activities, and shall notify Acadia Holdings of meetings with any third parties relating to the Phase I Activities.  (The Project Director shall not be required to notify Acadia Holdings of meetings involving only Calpine and its Affiliates.) Acadia Holdings will identify for the Project Director an individual as its representative for such purpose, which individual may be replaced from time to time upon notice by Acadia Holdings to the Project Director.  Neither compliance, nor failure to comply, with the preceding two sentences shall limit the authority of the Project Director, constitute a condition to performance of any of his or her obligations hereunder or under the Project Management Agreement, or create any liability for the Project Director or Calpine.

       (c)  Upon the Management Committee's direction, the Member that is the Project Management Company or the Member whose Affiliate is the Project Management Company, as the case may be, shall implement such succession plan.  As part of such plan, the Project Management Company shall give the Company notice of the proposed substitution or replacement of another qualified individual as the Project Director to serve until the Project Director Discharge Date (together with information as to the individual's qualifications and credentials), and the Management Committee shall have the right to approve or disapprove of the individual proposed to serve as the Project Director.  If the Management Committee does not approve the individual proposed within fifteen (15) days after the proposal is made, the Member that is the Project Management Company or the Member whose Affiliate is the Project Management Company, as the case may be, shall promptly propose another qualified individual in accordance with the preceding sentence.  Until the Management Committee approves a replacement Project Director, the then acting Project Director (including any interim Project Director) shall continue in the performance of his or her duties as Project Director.

The Chairman shall distribute the Significant Offtake Agreement along with the detailed information on matters to be considered by the Management Committee at such meeting to be distributed to the Representatives at least five (5) days before the meeting in accordance with Section 4.3.6(a).  The foregoing requirement that a copy of the proposed Significant Offtake Agreement be delivered to the Representatives in advance of a meeting of the

-26-

Management Committee may be waived if done so in writing by all the Representatives attending such meeting.  Provided the proposed Significant Offtake Agreement has been delivered to the Members in advance of the meeting (or such requirement is waived), the proposed agreement shall be considered by the Management Committee at the meeting.  The Management Committee shall in its discretion:

5.6.1.  Procedure Prior to Project Financing.  The provisions of this Section 5.6.1 are applicable during the period from the Effective Time until the earlier to occur of (a) the first drawdown of funds under the Company’s initial Project Financing, and (b) the date either Member acquires control of a Simple Majority.  During this period, if, after consideration of a Prequalified Significant Offtake Agreement proposed by either Member, the Management Committee does not agree on a course of action pursuant to clauses (a), (b) or (c) of Section 5.6, within fifteen (15) Business Days after the proposed Prequalified Significant Offtake Agreement was first considered at a meeting of the Management Committee, the Management Committee shall be deemed to have voted to approve the proposed Prequalified Significant Offtake Agreement, and, except as provided below, the Chairman shall execute the Prequalified Significant Offtake Agreement on behalf of the Company.  The term “Prequalified Significant Offtake Agreement” means a Significant Offtake Agreement, (a) with any Person (including an Affiliate of either Member) as the offtaker having a Standard & Poor’s credit rating of BBB- or better, or the Xxxxx’x equivalent thereof, and (b) that, when analyzed using the Base Model, is  projected (on a stand alone basis) to result in a nine percent (9%) unlevered internal rate of return to the Company, after income taxes (assuming an overall income tax rate of 38.25%), based on the Project Costs, Operating Expenses (including fuel costs), Capital Expenses, Tax depreciation and other items allocable to the Capacity and Energy sold under the proposed Prequalified Significant Offtake Agreement.  “Base Model” means the Project’s spreadsheet financial model

-27-

that will be reasonably agreed upon by the Management Committee within sixty (60) days after the Effective Time. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the Representatives that do not agree that the Prequalified Significant Offtake Agreement should be entered into by the Company may specify particular revisions to the terms of the proposed Prequalified Significant Offtake Agreement that they require for approval of the agreement, in which event the proposing Member shall endeavor, in good faith within a reasonable time not to exceed thirty (30) days, to negotiate those terms requested by the dissenting Representatives, and the Company shall not enter into the proposed Prequalified Significant Offtake Agreement until the proposing Member has so endeavored to negotiate the requested terms.  Regardless whether the requested terms are or are not included in the proposed Prequalified Significant Offtake Agreement following such good faith endeavors, at the end of such thirty (30) day period, the Chairman shall execute such Prequalified Significant Offtake Agreement as provided above in the form then negotiated for the Company by the proposing Member.

Section 5.7. Project Financing.

5.7.1. Project Finance Criteria.  The Company will, as its primary financing strategy, pursue financing for the Project on the basis of loans or bonds which are non-recourse and off-balance sheet to the Members and their Affiliates, under which (a) the lenders will have a first priority perfected security interest in all Company Assets (without any cross-collateralization or cross-default to any other assets or indebtedness of the Members or their Affiliates), and (b) the Members and their Affiliates will not have any obligation or liability in respect of such financing except for (i) obligations to contribute equity, including equity for cost overruns (with each Member being responsible for its Pro Rata share of any such equity up to a maximum to be agreed by the Members), (ii) the Members’ pledge of their respective Ownership Interests as security for the project debt, with no representations, warranties or covenants other than usual and customary corporate representations and warranties for a pledge agreement in a non-recourse, off-balance sheet financing of the type described above, and (iii) any obligations that the Members or their Affiliates may elect to undertake pursuant to the Financing Documents (“Project Financing”).  Accordingly, the Members agree that this Agreement, the Definitive Agreements and the Project Agreements are intended to comply with standards and requirements for a Project Financing so as to be acceptable to the project lenders.  To the extent that either Member or its respective Affiliates may be subject to restrictions under senior debt agreements or bond indentures that inhibit either Member or its respective Affiliates from pledging its Ownership Interest in the Company to secure the project debt, the Members will work with one another to resolve resulting issues so that Project Financing may be achieved generally in accordance with the structure contemplated for Project Financing in this Agreement.

5.7.2. Management Committee Approval.  The Management Committee may approve a Financing Commitment at any time.  Beginning no later than the date upon which the Company has entered into Significant Offtake Agreements pursuant to which an aggregate of sixty-five percent (65%) of the total output of Capacity or Energy from the Facility will be sold for terms of no less than fifteen (15) years, the Members agree (a) to work together to develop a plan for Project Financing and (b) diligently to jointly pursue and obtain Financing Commitments to implement such plan.

ARTICLE 7
POWER MARKETING AND FUEL PROCUREMENT

            Section 7.1.  Power Marketing Agreement.  As soon as reasonably practicable after the Trigger Date, in a period that is anticipated to end ninety (90) days after the Trigger Date, the Management Committee shall negotiate and cause the Company to enter into an Affiliate Contract with the Power Marketer (the "Power Marketing Agreement") for the provision of the following services to the Company:  the nomination, purchase and sale of natural gas necessary to operate the Facility, the sale of Energy, Capacity and ancillary services provided by the Facility, intra-day trading of Reserve Margin and Energy generated therefrom (or other trading as directed by the Management Committee), risk management, scheduling for, and the dispatch of, Energy, and other project related commercial and operational activities assigned to it by the Management Committee ("Power Marketing Services").  The Members contemplate that natural gas will be purchased from, and Energy, Capacity and ancillary services will be sold to, third parties, and the Power Marketer shall handle scheduling, invoicing and other administrative functions with respect thereto, but the Power Marketer shall have no obligation to sell natural gas to the Company or purchase Energy, Capacity or ancillary services from the Company or enter into any commitments with respect thereto for which the Power Marketer could be liable.  The Power Marketing Agreement shall incorporate Sections 7.1 through 7.5.  Upon the effective date of the Power Marketing Agreement between the Company and the initial Power Marketer, (a) the Power Marketing Agreement shall constitute the entire agreement between the parties thereto relating to the subject matter thereof and shall supersede the provisions of Sections 7.1 through 7.5 and (b) all references in this Agreement to any of Sections 7.1 through 7.5 shall thereafter refer to the comparable provision of the Power Marketing Agreement.  The Members acknowledge and understand that the Company has entered into the Procurement and Marketing Agreement, dated as of July 27, 2001, between Cleco Marketing & Trading and the Company, which is intended to function in conjunction with the PPAs.  Such Procurement and Marketing Agreement is not the Power Marketing Agreement contemplated by this Article 7 and, accordingly, this Article 7 shall remain in effect following the execution and delivery of such Procurement and Marketing Agreement and until the Power Marketing Agreement is executed and delivered following the Trigger Date.

                    7.1.1.Initial Power Marketer; Power Marketing for Next Project.  The Management Committee hereby designates Cleco Marketing & Trading as the initial Power Marketer for the Company.  The Members agree that in the event they or their Controlled

-34-

Affiliates jointly develop and operate a second power plant project together, Calpine shall have the option, but no obligation, to perform (or have its Affiliate perform) the role of power marketer in connection with such project on substantially the same terms as are set forth herein with such changes as may then be deemed necessary or reasonable by the parties to accommodate dissimilarities between the technical or commercial aspects of the Project and the second project.

                    7.1.2.  Reimbursement.  The Power Marketer shall not be entitled to any fee or reimbursement of expenses incurred in trading Energy, Capacity or ancillary services for the Company.  The benefits to the Member that is, or whose Affiliate is, the Power Marketer constitute the sole and adequate consideration for the Power Marketer's performance of the trading services.  However, the Power Marketer shall be entitled to receive from the Company reimbursement of its labor, overhead and other reasonable expenses and costs incurred in connection with its administration and management of contracts in the Asset Book.  Such reimbursement shall constitute Operating Expenses that will be budgeted in each Operating Budget and will be subject thereto, and the Company shall cause such expenses to be paid out of the Project Account.

                    7.1.3.  Third Party Assistance.  Without limitation to the last sentence of Section 7.1.7, the Power Marketer may from time to time submit proposals to the Management Committee for the Company to engage consultants, advisors or other Persons to assist with the Power Marketing Services, and if approved, such arrangements will constitute Project Agreements, but the Power Marketer (a) shall have no authority to enter into such arrangements on behalf of the Company and (b) shall have no right to be reimbursed by the Company if it separately enters into such arrangements, notwithstanding that the Company may have benefited from such arrangements.

                    7.1.4.  Asset Management Policy Manual ; Transfer Price.  On or before fifteen (15) months prior to the anticipated Commercial Operation Date, the Power Marketer shall develop an asset management policy manual, which shall be subject to the Management Committee's approval ("Asset Management Policy Manual").

             (a)  The Asset Management Policy Manual shall set the applicable price at which either Member can purchase (or arrange for the purchase) of Capacity and Energy pursuant to Section 7.3 (the "Transfer Price"), state the policies and procedures for all Power Marketing Services, contain certain risk parameters for trading by the Power Marketer of Capacity, Energy and ancillary services from the Facility (which the Management Committee may change from time to time) and incorporate the provisions set forth in Appendix I.  The Transfer Price is anticipated to reflect the "all in" costs to the Company allocable to the Capacity and Energy that either Member may purchase (or arrange for the purchase of) from the Company hereunder.

              (b)  All Power Marketing Services undertaken by the Power Marketer in connection with the Project shall be undertaken in accordance with the Asset Management Policy Manual, and any and all risk parameters set forth therein or that the Management Committee may from time to time establish in connection therewith.  The Management Committee may modify, amend or restate the Asset Management Policy Manual at any time and from time to time in its discretion.

                    7.1.5.  Asset Manager.  An employee of the Power Marketer (or its Affiliate) will be appointed by the Power Marketer, subject to the approval of the Management Committee, to direct, oversee and coordinate the Power Marketing Services (the "Asset Manager").  The Power Marketer shall provide the Asset Manager with the necessary resources to accomplish his or her responsibilities hereunder.  The Asset Manager shall report directly to the Management Committee and shall be in routine daily contact with the Representatives of the Member that is not acting as the Power Marketer. The appointed Asset Manager may be terminated by the Management Committee (a) if he or she has failed to follow the directions of the Management Committee in any material instance or to observe any provision of this Agreement or the Asset Management Policy Manual, after notice to the Asset Manager and the Power Marketer specifying the infraction and the actions to be taken to remedy the same, and a reasonable opportunity to cure such infraction has elapsed without remedying the infraction, by a vote of the Management Committee (with such matter considered a Disqualified Matter on which the Member that is, or whose Affiliate is, the Power Marketer shall have no vote) or (b) if said individual dies, becomes incapacitated or ceases working for a Member or its Affiliate.  In the event the Asset Manager's appointment is being terminated, the Power Marketer shall provide the Company with a plan for succession and orderly transition of the Asset Manager's responsibility so that at no point will the Power Marketing Services be interrupted, including, in the event an individual's appointment is terminated under clause (b) above, the temporary appointment of a qualified individual (which shall not require Management Committee approval) who shall undertake the Asset Manager's responsibility in the interim until the Management Committee shall have approved a replacement Asset Manager.

                    7.1.6.  Standard of Conduct.  The Power Marketer and its personnel (a) are and shall be fully experienced and qualified to perform the Power Marketing Services; (b) shall perform the Power Marketing Services in accordance with this Agreement and the Asset Management Policy Manual, and in an effective and professional manner consistent with the standards, skill, diligence and care that would be exercised by a Person experienced in the power and gas marketing industry; (c) shall use all commercially reasonable efforts to discharge its and their duties under this Agreement in a manner that will maximize net revenues to the Company within the defined risk parameters as set forth by the Management Committee from time to time in the Asset Management Policy Manual; and (d) in performing the Power Marketing Services, will comply with the instruction or directives of the Management Committee.  The Power Marketer will not engage in Self-Dealing Practices on behalf of itself or any of its Affiliates.  The Power Marketer and its personnel will promptly provide information to any Member and any Representative (and other Persons to the extent requested by a Member or a Representative) upon request of such Member or Representative.  In its performance of the Power Marketing Services, the Power Marketer shall comply with (x) any requirements that affect the Power Marketing Services arising under the Financing Documents and (y) all Applicable Law to which the Power Marketer, its personnel, the Company, its Members, or the Facility is or may be subject.

                    7.1.7.  Asset Book.  The Power Marketer shall maintain a separate book for the Facility ("Asset Book") identifying all open positions, hedging instruments and other commercial and financial instruments resulting from the Power Marketing Services, all in accordance with the Asset Management Policy Manual.  The Power Marketer will settle all positions with the Company monthly, and, on or before the tenth (10th) day of each Month,

(a) the Power Marketer shall render to the Company by wire transfer to the Project Account, payment of all net revenues received by the Power Marketer during the preceding Month, together with a statement setting forth the calculation of the net revenues for the immediately preceding Month or (b) the Power Marketer shall furnish to the Company a statement setting forth the calculation of the net losses for the immediately preceding Month, and the Company shall render to the Power Marketer by wire transfer payment of all net losses incurred on behalf of the Company; provided, however, that if the Management Committee has reasonable cause to believe that the Power Marketer has engaged in Self-Dealing Practices or exceeded the limits on its authority hereunder and such actions resulted in such net losses, the Management Committee may suspend payment pending resolution of its concerns.  As will be more specifically set forth in the Asset Management Policy Manual, and as an exception to the prohibition in Section 7.1.2 on fees and the reimbursement of expenses incurred in trading activities, the Power Marketer may incur Operating Expenses on behalf of the Company that are directly related to the sale of Energy, Capacity and ancillary services from the Facility, such as broker's fees or commissions incurred in trading Energy, Capacity or ancillary services from the Facility.

                    7.1.8.  Dispatch.  The Power Marketer shall be responsible for all dispatch of Energy and will communicate directly with the Plant Manager in connection therewith.  In addition, the Power Marketer will be responsible for coordinating all of the Facility's Maintenance schedules with the Plant Manager.

                    7.1.9.  Orderly Transition of Power Marketer.  At any time there is a change in the identity of the Power Marketer, the prior Power Marketer shall cooperate with the Company and the succeeding Power Marketer to ensure the prompt succession and orderly transition of the Power Marketing Services.

            Section 7.2.  Marketing Annual Plan; Revenue and Forecasting Benchmarks.

-37-

and (iii) the variable amount of Capacity or "swing" (and the associated Energy) that the Power Marketer anticipates will be available each month after subtracting from the Facility's total Capacity both the Capacity required to meet the Contracted Energy Requirements and the Uncommitted Capacity (the "Available Swing Energy").  The Power Marketer shall update the Contracted Energy Requirements and the Available Swing Energy, and report such updates to the Management Committee, on a monthly basis.

                    7.2.2.  Approval of Annual Plan.  Within fifteen (15) days after the submission of a proposed Annual Plan, the Power Marketer shall meet with the Management Committee to discuss the proposed Annual Plan and any suggested changes, comments or questions the Management Committee may have regarding the Annual Plan.

                    7.2.3.  Implementation of Annual Plan; Meetings.  After the Management Committee approves an Annual Plan, the Power Marketer shall perform the Power Marketing Services in accordance with the Annual Plan then approved by the Management Committee (and the Asset Management Policy Manual) for the upcoming January 1 through December 31 time period.  During the January 1 through December 31 time period to which the approved Annual Plan applies, the Power Marketer and the Management Committee shall meet on a mutually agreeable day during the first week of each of the following Months:  February, May, and August, to consider any adjustments or modifications to the Annual Plan necessary or desirable to achieve the objectives of maximizing net revenue payable to the Company during the remaining portion of the applicable January 1 through December 31 time period.

Section 8.1. Asset Optimization Committee.  The Members recognize and agree that from time to time opportunities may arise which allow for a more efficient use or more profitable use of the Company Assets to the benefit of the Company.  Such opportunities are often first identified by field personnel and others engaged in the actual day to day operations of the Project, including fuel procurement and the marketing of Energy, Capacity or ancillary services, and the Company will benefit from an orderly process by which ideas for asset optimization may be presented and developed for consideration by the Management Committee.  In order to facilitate the presentation and development of ideas for asset optimization the Company shall establish an Asset Optimization Committee (the “AOC”).

-40-

time, by prior notice to the other Member, remove its AOC Rep(s) or AOC Alternate(s) and designate a new AOC Rep(s) or AOC Alternate(s).  Each AOC Rep shall serve on the AOC until his or her successor shall be duly designated or until his or her death, resignation or removal by the Member that appointed him or her.  At least six (6) months before the scheduled Commercial Operation Date each Member shall give notice to the other of the name, business address and business telephone number of its AOC Rep(s) and AOC Alternate(s) and promptly after any change, give notice to the other of any change in the identity, business address or business telephone of its AOC Rep(s) or AOC Alternate(s).  The AOC may adopt such rules of order, by-laws and policy statements and directives as it considers necessary or appropriate for the conduct of its business.  The AOC shall have no authority to act on behalf of the Company or the Management Committee.  Its purpose is to provide a forum for the presentation of proposals for asset optimization, to consider which if any proposals should be considered by the Management Committee, and to assist in the development of such proposals for presentation to and consideration by the Management Committee.  No proposal for asset optimization shall be acted upon without prior approval by the Management Committee.

          Section 8.3.  AOC Meetings .

 8.3.1. Regular Meetings.  The AOC shall meet at least once each calendar quarter upon no less than ten (10) days’ prior notice from the AOC Chair to the AOC Reps and AOC Alternates.

                    8.3.2.  Special Meetings.  In addition to its regular quarterly meetings, special meetings of the AOC may be called by the AOC Chair upon the request of a Member or the Plant Manager, as applicable.

                    8.3.3.  Telephonic Meetings Permitted.  AOC Reps and AOC Alternates may participate in a meeting of the AOC by means of conference telephone or similar communications equipment by means of which all persons participating in the meeting can hear each other, and such participation in a meeting shall constitute presence in person at such meeting.

            Section 8.4.  Chairman.  The Member that is not the Power Marketer shall designate one (1) of its two (2) AOC Reps as the chairman of the AOC (the "AOC Chair") for each meeting of the AOC.  The AOC Chair shall provide notice to each AOC Rep stating the place, date and hour of each meeting of the AOC, together with an agenda for the meeting, not less than ten (10) days before the date of the meeting (unless such notice is waived by each Member's AOC Rep and/or AOC Alternate either at the meeting or by written consent).  At least five (5) days before each meeting (or if the meeting is called on shorter notice, as far in advance as is practicable under the circumstances), detailed information on the matters to be considered by the AOC will be provided to each AOC Rep and AOC Alternate.  The AOC Chair or any AOC Rep or AOC Alternate may invite additional attendees to meetings of the AOC.  Such attendees, who shall be identified at the commencement of such meeting, shall have no power to vote on any matters but may participate in discussions in accordance with the AOC's rules of order.

            Section 8.5.  Vote Required for Action.  The AOC shall consider each proposal for asset optimization and assist in further developing the proposal for submission to the

-41-

Management Committee.  The AOC shall determine, by majority vote, when a proposal is fully developed and ready to be submitted to the Management Committee.  It is the purpose and goal of the AOC to expedite the consideration and development of proposals for asset optimization.  The AOC shall, therefore, act at all times with the intent of expediting and facilitating the process of consideration and development.

            Section 8.6.  Compensation.  AOC Reps and AOC Alternates shall not be entitled to any compensation for their services as members of the AOC.

            Section 8.7.  Right to Present Matters to Management Committee.  The provisions of this Article 8 shall not be construed to preclude either Member from presenting any matter to the Management Committee for consideration and action, notwithstanding that the AOC may have determined not to submit such matter to the Management Committee.  However, if a Member presents to the Management Committee a matter that the AOC has determined not to submit to the Management Committee, such Member shall disclose that fact to the Management Committee when the matter is presented.

                    11.1.2.  Condemnation Awards.  All Condemnation Awards payable as a result of or in connection with any taking of the whole or substantially all of the Facility shall be deposited into the Project Account, subject to the provisions of the Financing Documents.

            Section 12.3.  Ordinary Distributions.  If at any time and from time to time (other than in connection with the dissolution and termination of the Company pursuant to Article 15), the Management Committee determines that the Company has cash (or may draw on unfunded loan commitments to the extent permitted by the Financing Documents) that is not required for the operations of the Company, the payment of liabilities or expenses of the Company, the payment of the Special Distribution, Priority Distributions, Reimbursable Member Expenses and Reimbursable Project Management Expenses or the setting aside of reserves to meet the anticipated cash needs of the Company, unless the Management Committee shall decide otherwise, it shall cause the Company to distribute such available cash, or draw on any unfunded loan commitments to the extent permitted by the Financing Documents, and distribute all or any portion of that excess cash and drawdown funds to the Members Pro Rata, subject to the provisions of the Financing Documents. In addition, within thirty (30) days following the Commercial Operation Date, unless the Management Committee shall decide otherwise, it shall cause the Company to distribute to the Members Pro Rata, the Development Fees, subject to the provisions of the Financing Documents.

            Section 13.5.  Minimum Gain Chargeback.  Except as otherwise provided in Treasury Regulation § 1.704-2(f), notwithstanding any other provision of this Article 13, if there is a net decrease in Company Minimum Gain during any Fiscal Year, each Member shall be specially allocated items of Company gross income and gain for such Fiscal Year (and, if necessary, for subsequent Fiscal Years) before any other allocation under this Article 13 in an amount equal to

            Section 13.8.  Excess Losses.  In no event shall Losses of the Company be allocated to a Member if such allocation would cause or increase an Adjusted Capital Account deficit of such Member.  All Losses of the Company in excess of the limitation set forth in this Section 13.8 shall be allocated to the Members that have positive balances in their Adjusted Capital Accounts in proportion to such positive balances, but only to the extent that the Losses do not cause any Member to have a deficit balance in its Adjusted Capital Account while any other Member has a positive balance in its Adjusted Capital Account.

            Section 13.13.  Other Allocation Rules.

              (a)  Profits, Losses and any other items of income, gain, loss or deduction shall be allocated to the Members pursuant to this Article 13 as of the last day of each Fiscal Year; provided that Profits, Losses and such other items shall also be allocated at such times as the Gross Asset Values of Company Property are adjusted pursuant to subparagraph (b) of the definition of Gross Asset Value herein.

              (b)  For purposes of determining the Profits, Losses, or any other items allocable to any period, Profits, Losses, and any such other items shall be determined on a daily, monthly or other basis, as determined by all of the Members using any permissible method under Code §  706 and the Treasury Regulations thereunder.

Allocations pursuant to this Section 13.14 are solely for purposes of Taxes and shall not affect, or in any way be taken into account in computing, any Member's Capital Account or share of Profits, Losses, other items, or distributions pursuant to any provision of this Agreement.  Any elections or other decisions relating to such allocations shall be made by the Management Committee.

            Section 13.15.  Special Calpine Allocations.  All Profits, Losses and items of income, gain, loss and deduction of the Company (after giving effect to the special and curative allocations set forth in Sections 13.5 through 13.12) that are attributable to the termination effected by the Aquila Termination Agreement and receipt by the Company of the Aquila Termination Fee shall be specially allocated to Calpine.

ARTICLE 14
DISPOSAL OF INTERESTS

            Section 14.1.  Disposition by Members.  Any Disposition by any Member of all or part of its Ownership Interest to any Person other than a Controlled Affiliate of the Disposer shall be made only upon the prior written consent of the other Member, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, in no event may any Member dispose of all or any part of its Ownership Interest to a Controlled Affiliate or any other Person if as a consequence thereof the Company shall (a) lose its status as an Exempt Wholesale Generator (as defined by FERC) or any

-48-

comparable status under then Applicable Law, or (b) otherwise become subject to any Applicable Law to which it was not previously subject and which would result in any material increase in its costs of operation or decrease in its operating flexibility.

            Section 14.2.  Right of First Refusal.  If any Member desires to Dispose of all or part of its Ownership Interest to any Person, it may do so only after the following conditions have been met. The proposed Disposer must have received a bona fide third party written offer to Dispose of its Ownership Interest that the Disposer is able and willing to accept (the "Third Party Offer").  The proposed Disposer must notify the other Member in writing of the Third Party Offer and, if such Third Party Offer includes non-cash consideration, the proposed Disposer shall also furnish its reasonable good faith estimate of the Fair Market Value of such non-cash consideration.  A copy of the Third Party Offer must accompany this notice to the other Member.  Upon receipt of the proposed Disposer's notice of a Third Party Offer, the other Member shall have the right to purchase the same portion of the Disposer's Ownership Interest as was proposed to be acquired in the Third Party Offer for the price and upon the terms of such Third Party Offer (including cash in an amount equivalent to the Fair Market Value of any non-cash consideration included in the Third Party Offer).  Within thirty (30) days after its receipt of the proposed Disposer's notice of the Third Party Offer, the other Member may exercise this right by delivering a written notice to the Disposer of such Member's intent to purchase said portion of the Disposer's Ownership Interest.  If the other Member does not notify the proposed Disposer of its intent to purchase the applicable portion of the Disposer's Membership Interest, in writing, within thirty (30) days of receiving the Disposer's notice of the Third Party Offer, the proposed Disposer shall be free to Dispose of the applicable portion of its Ownership Interest to such third party, but only if all of the following conditions are met:

              (a)  The price and terms of the Disposition must be the same as, or more favorable to, the proposed Disposer than the Third Party Offer;

              (b)  The Disposition must be consummated within four (4) months of the date the other Member received the notice of the Third Party Offer; and

              (c)  The other Member must consent to the identity of the Disposee, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed.  If a Member contemplates Disposing of all or any part of its Ownership Interest in the future, then such proposed Disposer may request the other Member to give advance consent to the identity of the proposed transferee(s).  If the other Member gives its advance consent to one or more proposed transferee(s), such consent shall be effective for a period of one (1) year from the date given, and the other Member may not revoke its consent to the identity of such proposed transferee(s) during this period.

             Section 14.3.  Further Requirements.

             (a)  Any Disposition or Encumbrance of an Ownership Interest or a part thereof by a Member must comply with any applicable provisions of the Financing Documents, the Project Agreements and any other agreement to which the Company is a party.

-49-

              (b)  In the case of a Disposition, the Disposee must execute and deliver to the Company, and to the other Member, a written instrument in form and substance acceptable to the Company's counsel containing, among any other reasonable and usual terms required by the Company's counsel, an acknowledgement by the Disposee that it has accepted and assumed all of the terms of this Agreement (including the terms of this Article 14) and has, subject to Section 14.5, become a Member of the Company.

             (c)  If, as a result of the proposed Disposition, there will be more than two (2) Members of the Company, all the existing and intended Members following such Disposition must have mutually agreed to an amendment to this Agreement to account for ownership by more than two Members.

             (d)  The Disposer or proposed Disposer shall reimburse the Company and the other Member (or cause them to be reimbursed) for any and all reasonable expenses incurred by the Company or the other Member in connection with complying with the provisions of this Section 14.3 and otherwise in connection with the Disposition or proposed Disposition.

            Section 14.4.  Equitable Relief.  A Member may not Dispose of or Encumber all or any portion of its Ownership Interest except in strict accordance with this Article 14.  Any attempted Disposition or Encumbrance of all or any portion of an Ownership Interest, other than in strict accordance with this Article 14, shall be and is hereby declared null and void ab initio.  The Members agree that breach of the provisions of this Article 14 may cause irreparable injury to the Company and the Members for which monetary damages (or other remedy at law) are inadequate in view of (a) the complexities and uncertainties in measuring actual damages that would be sustained by reason of the failure of a Member to comply with such provisions, and (b) the uniqueness of the Company's business and the relationship among the Members.  Accordingly, the Members agree that the provisions of this Article 14 may be enforced by specific performance.  The Members acknowledge that the Disposition or Encumbrance of Ownership Interests may be subject to further restrictions imposed by the terms of the Project Agreements or the Financing Documents.

            Section 14.5.  Disposee to Become Member.  Upon all conditions to the Disposition being satisfied, and, upon obtaining the required consent therefor from the Members as set forth in Section 14.1, the Disposee of a Disposition shall become a Member.

            Section 14.6.  Sales of Interest in a Member.

                    14.6.1.  Notice; Option to Buy Ownership Interest.  Calpine warrants and represents to Acadia Holdings that it is an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of Calpine Parent, and Acadia Holdings warrants and represents to Calpine that it is an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of Cleco.  Calpine and Acadia Holdings each acknowledge and agree that they have entered into this Agreement in consideration of the fact that Calpine is a Controlled Affiliate of Calpine Parent and Acadia Holdings is a Controlled Affiliate of Cleco and in light of the benefits that those relationships may bring to the Company.  Consequently, it is agreed by the Members that (a) should there ever be a Disposition of an interest in Acadia Holdings, or in any entity (other than Cleco) that directly or indirectly owns a beneficial interest in Acadia Holdings, and following such Disposition, Acadia Holdings is not a Controlled Affiliate of Cleco or (b) should

Section 15.2. Winding Up.

15.2.1. Windup Events.  Upon dissolution of the Company, the Company shall continue its existence solely for the purpose of winding up its affairs.  The “Windup Events” shall consist of the following actions:

              (a)  The Management Committee shall terminate all Project Agreements in accordance with the terms thereof;

              (b)  The Management Committee or, if the Members unanimously agree to appoint a liquidating trustee, the liquidating trustee (the Management Committee or such liquidating trustee, as the case may be, being referred to herein as the "Liquidator"), shall (i) timely dispose of the salvageable Company Assets by sale, auction, partition or in-kind distribution, in the Liquidator's discretion (except as to the matters provided for in Section 15.2.3 as to which the Liquidator has no discretion), (ii) deposit any proceeds of the disposition in the Project Account, (iii) undertake other necessary steps for the winding up of the Project, including disbursement of any balance remaining in the Project Account and the Capital Expense Account after the payment of all indebtedness of the Company; and (iv) notify the Management Committee when such actions have been completed; and

              (c)  Upon receipt of notice that the winding up activities have been completed, and verification of same by the Management Committee, the Management Committee shall terminate this Agreement and the Definitive Agreements, and the parties hereto and thereto shall be released from and shall have no obligation hereunder or under the Definitive Agreements to which they were parties arising on and after the Termination Date, except for such obligations that expressly survive the termination hereof or thereof.

                    15.2.2.  Liquidator's Duties.  The winding up process shall be carried out at the direction of the Liquidator.  In winding up the Company's affairs, every effort shall then be made to dispose of the Company Assets in an orderly manner, having regard to the liquidity, divisibility and marketability of the Company Assets and consistent with the considerations set forth in Section 15.3.  If the Liquidator determines in its discretion (except as to the matters provided for in Section 15.2.3 as to which the Liquidator has no discretion) that it would be imprudent to dispose of any non-cash Company Assets by sale or auction, the Liquidator may distribute such assets in kind to the Members, in lieu of cash, proportionately to their rights to receive cash distributions hereunder.  The Liquidator shall not be entitled to be paid by the Company any fee for services rendered in connection with the liquidation of the Company, but shall be reimbursed by the Company for all third party costs and expenses incurred by it in connection therewith and shall be indemnified by the Company with respect to any action brought against it in connection therewith by applying, mutatis mutandis, the provisions of Article 17.

                    15.2.3.  In-Kind Distribution of Contributed Assets.  Should the event resulting in the commencement of the Windup Events occur prior to the earlier of Financial Closing and the date that the last of the four (4) combustion turbine generators is delivered to the Facility Site:

-52-

             (a)  Provided that Calpine is not a Defaulting Party whose Event of Default resulted in the commencement of the Windup Events, at Calpine's election in its sole discretion (and the Liquidator shall have no discretion with respect thereto), upon commencement of the Windup Events, the Liquidator shall either convey the combustion turbine generators to Calpine or cause the Company to assign the Combustion Turbine Purchase Contract to Calpine if the combustion turbine generators have not yet been acquired by the Company; and

             (b)  Except as otherwise provided under Section 15.2.3(a), provided that the Member is not a Defaulting Party whose Event of Default resulted in the commencement of the Windup Events, at each Member's election in its sole discretion (and the Liquidator shall have no discretion with respect thereto), upon commencement of the Windup Events, the Liquidator shall convey to each electing Member the following assets in kind:

               (i)  Those assets selected by such Member from among the assets it contributed to the Company; and

             (ii)  After each electing Member makes its selection under clause (i) of this Section 15.2.3(b), the remaining Company Assets selected by such Member (which may include any remaining assets contributed to the Company by the other Member).

In the case of the Liquidator's distribution of assets in-kind under Section 15.2.2 or a Member's election to receive an in-kind distribution of assets under this Section 15.2.3, such assets shall be valued at their Gross Asset Value.  In the event a Member elects to receive assets in-kind pursuant to this Section 15.2.3 and, as a result, there are insufficient assets remaining in the Company to allow a Pro Rata cash distribution to the other Member, the Member who has elected to receive assets in kind (or if both, the Member receiving the assets with the greater Gross Asset Value) shall contribute such cash to the Project Account as is necessary so that the Liquidator may make a Pro Rata cash distribution to the other Member in accordance with Section 15.5.

                    15.2.4.  Reimbursement for Third Party Expenses.  In the event the Windup Events are commenced prior to the date on which the assets listed on Appendix B have been contributed to the Company pursuant to Section 3.2.2, with respect to the assets each Member would have contributed, each such Member shall be considered a creditor of the Company for the total amount of the Third Party Expenses incurred by it or its Affiliates in connection with acquiring such assets on or before the date the Windup Events commence, and each such Member shall be entitled to be reimbursed therefor by the Company pursuant to clause (a) of Section 15.5.  In the event the Company is required to reimburse a Member under this Section 15.2.4 but there are insufficient assets remaining in the Company in order to make such payment, the other Member shall contribute such cash to the Project Account as is necessary so that the Liquidator may reimburse the Member entitled to reimbursement for Third Party Expenses hereunder.

-53-

            Section 15.3.  Objective of Winding Up.  In winding up the business of the Company, the Liquidator shall wind up the Company in an orderly and prudent manner consistent with the Company's then-existing obligations, with the goals of fulfilling the Company's contractual obligations, protecting customer goodwill and assuring customer service, limiting any residual liability to the Members and effecting a division of Company Assets in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement.

            Section 15.4.  Effect of a Member's Bankruptcy.  The occurrence of the Bankruptcy of a Member shall not cause a Member to cease to be a Member of the Company, and, except as expressly provided in Section 18.2(b), upon the occurrence of such an event, the business of the Company shall be continued without dissolution.

            Section 15.5.  Application and Distribution of Company Assets.  The Company Assets in winding up shall be applied or distributed as follows:

 (a)  first, to creditors of the Company (including Members that are creditors), whether by payment or the making of reasonable provision for the payment thereof, and including any contingent, conditional and unmatured liabilities of the Company, taking into account the relative priorities thereof;

             (b)  second, to the members in accordance with their positive Capital Accounts until all such Capital Accounts equal zero; and

             (c)  any remaining amounts Pro Rata to the Members.

A reasonable reserve for contingent, conditional and unmatured liabilities in connection with the winding up of the business of the Company shall be retained by the Company until such winding up is completed or such reserve is otherwise deemed no longer necessary by the Liquidator.

            Section 15.6.  Capital Account Adjustment. For purposes of determining a Member's Capital Account, if, on liquidation and dissolution of the Company, some or all of the Company Assets are distributed to the Members in kind, Company Profits (or Losses) shall be increased by the Profits (or Losses) that would have been realized had such assets been sold for their respective Fair Market Values on the date of dissolution of the Company, as determined by the Liquidator.  Any such increase pursuant to the preceding sentence:  (a) shall be allocated to the Members in accordance with Article 13; and (b) shall increase (or decrease) the Members' Capital Account balance accordingly.

            Section 15.7.  Termination of the Company.  The Company's existence shall terminate when all Company Assets, after payment of or due provision for all debts, liabilities and obligations of the Company, shall have been distributed to the Members in the manner provided for in this Article 15, and the Certificate of Formation shall have been canceled in the manner required by the Delaware Act.

            Section 15.8.  Deficit Capital Accounts.  Except as provided in Section 15.2.3 and Section 15.2.4 and in the last sentence of this Section 15.8, if any Member has a deficit balance in its Capital Account (after giving effect to all contributions, distributions and allocations for all Fiscal Years, including the Fiscal Year during which the liquidation of the Company occurs),

-54-

such Member shall have no obligation to make any contribution to the capital of the Company with respect to such deficit, and such deficit shall not be considered a debt owed to the Company or to any other Person for any purpose whatsoever.  Notwithstanding any other provision in this Agreement, if Acadia Holdings receives an amount of Priority Distributions during the Fiscal Year in which liquidation of the Company occurs that exceeds the amount of Priority Distributions to which Acadia Holdings is entitled for such Fiscal Year, taking into account the proportionate reduction in the Priority Amount for the Fiscal Year in which liquidation occurs (as provided for in the definition of "Priority Amount" set forth in Appendix A), Acadia Holdings shall return such excess Priority Distributions to the Company prior to distribution of the Company Assets in accordance with Section 15.5.

ARTICLE 16

            Section 16.4.  Survival of Tax Provisions.  The terms of this Article 16 shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the termination of any Member's ownership of an Ownership Interest in the Company, and shall remain binding on the Members for the period of time necessary to resolve any Tax matters regarding the Company until the resolution of all Tax matters.

             (f)  The appointment of a receiver, custodian, liquidator, trustee or like officer, to take possession of assets of a Member having a value in excess of $1,000,000 if the pendency of said receivership would reasonably tend to have a materially adverse effect upon the performance by said Member of its obligations under this Agreement, which receivership remains undischarged for a period of ninety (90) days from the date of its imposition;

              (g)  The admission by a Member in writing of its inability to pay its debts as they mature;

              (h)  The attachment, execution or other judicial seizure of all or any substantial part of a Member's assets or of a Member's Ownership Interest, or any part thereof, such

-58-

attachment, execution or seizure being with respect to an amount of not less than $1,000,000 and remaining undismissed or undischarged for a period of fifteen (15) days after the levy thereof, if the occurrence of such attachment, execution or other judicial seizure would reasonably tend to have a materially adverse effect upon the performance by such Member of its obligations under this Agreement; provided, however, that such an attachment, execution or seizure shall not constitute an Event of Default hereunder if such Member posts a bond sufficient to fully satisfy the amount of such claim or judgment within fifteen (15) days after the levy thereof and the Member's assets are thereby released from the lien of such attachment;

              (i)  Fraud by a Member which relates to the Company or the Members; or

              (j)  The occurrence of a Contribution Default and/or breach of any guarantee provided by such Member or its Affiliate in connection with any Capital Contribution;

shall constitute an event of default ("Event of Default") hereunder on the part of the Member with respect to whom such event occurs ("Defaulting Party") if, within thirty (30) days following notice of any non-monetary default, and if, within ten (10) days following notice of default due to the non-payment of monies due hereunder the Defaulting Party fails to pay such monies, or in the case of non-monetary defaults which can be cured, fails to commence substantial efforts to cure such default or, having commenced to cure, thereafter fails within a reasonable time to prosecute to completion with diligence and continuity the curing of such default; provided, however, that the occurrence of any of the events described in Sections 18.1(b), (c), (d), (e), (f), (g), or (h) above shall constitute an Event of Default immediately upon such occurrence without any requirement of notice or passage of time except as specifically set forth in any such subsection.

            Section 18.2.  Remedies of Non-Defaulting Member.  Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, the non-defaulting Member (the "Non-Defaulting Party") may, at its option, pursue any one or more of the following remedies without any notice or demand whatsoever other than any notice expressly provided for in this Agreement, as its sole and exclusive remedy(ies) for any such Event of Default:

             (a)  The Non-Defaulting Party may recover for deposit into the Project Account all amounts due and payable by the Defaulting Party into the Project Account under this Agreement, regardless whether the Non-Defaulting Party has exercised any of its termination rights hereunder with respect to such Event of Default;

-59-

that such liquidated damages (i) have been negotiated and agreed upon because actual damages resulting from an Event of Default will be difficult or impossible to calculate with reasonable certainty, (ii) are not a penalty, and (iii) will be applicable regardless of the actual damages sustained by the Non-Defaulting Party.

            Section 18.3.  Notice; Termination.  Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, before the exercise of either remedy provided for in Sections 18.2(b) or 18.2(c), the Non-Defaulting Party shall give to the Defaulting Party and the Management Committee notice (a "Final Notice") of the Non-Defaulting Party's intention to exercise one of such remedies after the expiration of a period of thirty (30) days from the date such Final Notice is delivered (the "Default Cure Period") unless the Event of Default is cured.  Upon expiration of the Default Cure Period, if the Event of Default is not cured, (a) the Non-Defaulting Party shall be entitled to the remedy specified in the Final Notice, i.e., either the Defaulting Party shall sell its Ownership Interest to the Non-Defaulting Member in accordance with Section 18.2(c) or the Company shall be dissolved and the Windup Events shall be undertaken by the Non-Defaulting Party in accordance with Section 18.2(b) and as provided in Section 18.4, and (b) the Non-Defaulting Party shall take such steps as needed to effectuate such remedy (or demand that the Defaulting Party or the Company, as the case may be, take such actions as it or they are required to take to effectuate such remedy).  If, however, within the Default Cure Period, the Defaulting Party cures such Event of Default, then the Non-Defaulting Member shall not be entitled to the remedy specified in such Final Notice.  If any Dispute or Controversy relating to the Event of Default is submitted to binding arbitration in accordance with the provisions of Section 20.2 and Appendix D, the Default Cure Period shall be extended until the arbitrator has rendered its final decision regarding the Dispute or Controversy.  Should the arbitrator determine that an Event of Default has occurred and such Event of Default has not been cured as of the date of the arbitrator's decision, the Defaulting Party shall have no further opportunity to cure the Event of Default and the Non-Defaulting Party shall be immediately entitled to the remedy it elected under Sections 18.2(b) or 18.2(c).

     Section 18.4.  No Pursuit of Project.  If the Non-Defaulting Party elects to dissolve the Company and windup the Project rather than purchase the Ownership Interest of the Defaulting Party, the Windup Events shall commence, provided that, all actions that would be conducted by the Management Committee with respect thereto will be conducted by the Non-Defaulting Party in accordance with Article 15.

            Section 18.5.  Defaulting Party's Loss of Representation and Voting Rights.  Should a Defaulting Party fail to cure any Event of Default prior to the end of the Default Cure Period, the Non-Defaulting Party shall, from and after the end of the Default Cure Period, have the right to appoint all of the Representatives and Alternates to the Management Committee and the Chairman, and the Defaulting Party shall not be entitled to vote on any matters brought before the Management Committee for consideration.

            Section 18.6.  Interest on Overdue Obligations and Post-Judgment Interest.  If any sum due hereunder is not paid by the due date thereof, the Member owing such obligation shall pay to the other Member interest thereon at the Default Rate concurrently with the payment of the amount, such interest to begin to accrue as of the date such payment was originally due and payable.  Any payment of such interest at the Default Rate pursuant to this Agreement shall not

-60-

excuse or cure any Event of Default hereunder.  All payments shall first be applied to the payment of accrued but unpaid interest.  The amount of any judgment or arbitration award obtained by one Member against the other Member in any Action or Proceeding arising out of an Event of Default by such other Member under this Agreement shall bear interest thereafter until paid at the Default Rate.

            Section 18.7.  No Waivers.  No failure or delay of any Member, in any one or more instances, (a) in exercising any power, right or remedy under this Agreement or (b) in insisting upon the strict performance by the other Member of such other Member's covenants, obligations or agreements under this Agreement, shall operate as a waiver, discharge or invalidation thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right, power or remedy or insistence on strict performance, or any abandonment or discontinuance of steps to enforce such a right, power or remedy or to enforce strict performance, preclude any other or future exercise thereof or insistence thereupon or the exercise of any other right, power or remedy.  The covenants, obligations, and agreements of a defaulting Member and the rights and remedies of the other Member upon a default or Event of Default shall continue and remain in full force and effect with respect to any subsequent breach, act or omission.

   (a)  In the Offer, the Acquiring Member shall state the price that it is willing to pay as the Purchase Price for the other Member's Ownership Interest.  The Conveying Member, within thirty (30) days following receipt of such notice, shall state in writing (the "Response") whether or not it accepts such amount as the Purchase Price.  If the Members do not agree on the Purchase Price within fifteen (15) days of receipt of the Response by the Acquiring Member, then each Member shall designate a qualified appraiser within fifteen (15) days from the expiration of the aforementioned fifteen (15) day period.  A qualified appraiser shall be an appraiser with at least five (5) years experience in the appraisal of properties similar to the Facility.  Each appraiser shall be directed to determine the Fair Market Value of the Conveying Member's Ownership Interest within thirty (30) days of his appointment and to notify each Member of his determination.  If the lower of the two determinations is not less than ninety-five percent (95%) of the higher of the two determinations, then the Fair Market Value shall be the average of the two determinations.  If the lower of the two determinations is less than ninety-five percent (95%) of the higher of the two determinations, then the two appraisers shall, within fifteen (15) days thereafter, appoint a third appraiser with similar qualifications (who shall not have performed any work for either Member within the five (5) year period prior to his or her appointment) and shall each furnish to such appraiser a written report of his or her respective determination.  Within thirty (30) days of his appointment, the third appraiser shall select the Fair Market Value of one or the other of the appraisers appointed by the Members and shall notify each Member of his determination, which shall be binding upon the Members.  The third appraiser must select one of the two appraisals and shall not have the right to establish a different Fair Market Value determination.  Each Member shall bear the cost of the appraiser appointed by it, and they shall share equally the cost of the third appraiser.

              (b)  Within ten (10) Business Days of receiving the final determination of Fair Market Value as provided in paragraph (a) above, the Acquiring Member shall either (i) pay to the Conveying Member the Purchase Price by wire transfer of immediately available funds or (ii) notify the Conveying Member that it no longer desires to purchase the Ownership Interest of the Conveying Member, in which case (1) in the event these procedures were initiated pursuant to Section 2.9, the provisions of Section 2.9(d) will control as if the Members had not decided in a course of action and neither had exercised its right to purchase the Ownership Interest of the other; (2) in the event these procedures were initiated pursuant to Section 14.6, the provisions of Section 14.6 will control as if the Member had not exercised its right to purchase the Ownership Interest of the other; (3) in the event these procedures were initiated pursuant to Section 10.2.1, the last sentence of Section 10.2.1 shall control as if neither Member had exercised its right to purchase the Ownership Interest of the other; and (4) in the event these procedures were initiated pursuant to Section 18.2(c), the Non-Defaulting Party may either rescind its Final Notice and elect to continue the Company or exercise its remedy under Section 18.2(b) without delivering an additional Final Notice (and in the latter event, the provisions of Section 18.4 shall be put into effect).  Concurrent with the payment of the Purchase Price, the Conveying Member shall deliver such instruments of transfer of title and assignment as are reasonably requested by the Acquiring Member; provided, however, that no representations shall be required to be provided by the Conveying Member other than representations that the Conveying Member has good title to its Ownership Interest, that the Conveying Member has the right, power and authority to convey the Ownership Interest and that the Ownership Interest is transferred free and clear of all liens.

ARBITRATION PROCEDURES

           Section 1.  Binding Arbitration.  Binding arbitration shall be conducted in accordance with the following procedures:

            (a)  The Member seeking arbitration shall request such arbitration in writing, which writing shall be delivered to the other Member and include a clear statement of the matter(s) in dispute. Except to the extent provided in this Appendix D, the arbitration shall be conducted in accordance with the commercial arbitration rules of the American Arbitration Association by a single arbitrator to be appointed as follows: (i) upon the issuance and receipt of a request for arbitration, the requesting and receiving Member shall each designate a representative for the sole purpose of selecting, by mutual agreement with the other Member's designated representative, the individual who shall arbitrate the Dispute or Controversy referred to arbitration hereunder; (ii) within twenty (20) days of their appointment, the two representatives shall designate a third individual who shall be the arbitrator to conduct the arbitration of the Dispute or Controversy; and (iii) said individual shall be qualified to arbitrate the Dispute or Controversy referred to arbitration hereunder and have a schedule that permits him or her to serve as arbitrator within the time periods set forth herein.  In order to facilitate any such appointment, the Member seeking arbitration shall submit a brief description (no longer than two (2) pages) of the Dispute or Controversy to the other Member.  In the event the Members' two representatives do not agree on a single arbitrator of the Dispute or Controversy within the twenty (20) day period, then the arbitrator shall be appointed by the then-serving senior judge of the federal district court for the Southern District of New York or any successor thereto within the next ten (10) day period.  The Member seeking arbitration shall request the appointment of an arbitrator and furnish a copy of the aforesaid description of the Dispute or Controversy to said judge.  Each Member may, but shall not be required to, submit to said judge a list of up to three (3) qualified individuals as candidates for appointment as the arbitrator whose schedules permit their service as arbitrator within the time periods set forth herein.  The arbitrator appointed by the judge need not be from such lists.

            (b)  Within thirty (30) days of the date the arbitrator is appointed, the arbitrator shall notify the Members of the date of the arbitration hearing, which hearing date shall be not more than sixty (60) days from the date of the arbitrator's appointment.  The arbitration hearing shall be held in New York City, New York.

            (c)  Any dispute regarding discovery, or the relevance or scope thereof, shall be determined by the arbitrator consistent with the expedited nature of arbitration.  (The arbitrator may hold a preliminary hearing to establish the extent of and schedule for the production of such documents and other information and the identification of any witnesses to be called.) All discovery shall be completed within forty-five (45) days following the appointment of the arbitrator.

Appendix D, Page 1

            (d)  The arbitrator shall issue a final ruling within thirty (30) days after the arbitration hearing.  Any decision of the arbitrator shall state the basis of the award and shall include both findings of fact and conclusions of law.  Any award rendered pursuant to the foregoing, which may include an award or decree of specific performance hereunder, shall be final and binding on, and nonappealable by, the Members and judgment thereon may be entered or enforcement thereof sought by either Member in a court of competent jurisdiction.  The foregoing deadlines shall be tolled during the period that no arbitrator is serving until a replacement is appointed in accordance with this Appendix D.

            (e)  Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing contained herein shall be deemed to give the arbitrator appointed hereunder any authority, power or right to alter, change, amend, modify, waive, add to or delete from any of the provisions of the Agreement.

          Section 2.  Further Qualifications of Arbitrators; Conduct.  All arbitrators shall be and remain at all times wholly impartial and, upon written request by either Member, shall provide the Members with a statement that they can and shall decide any Dispute or Controversy referred to them impartially.  No arbitrator shall be, or shall have been within the preceding ten (10) years, employed by either Member or any Affiliate of either Member, or have served as an advisor or consultant to either Member or any Affiliate of either Member, or have any material financial dependence upon either Member or any Affiliate of either Member, nor shall any arbitrator have any material financial interest in the Dispute or Controversy.

          Section 3.  Applicable Law and Arbitration Rules.  The agreement to arbitrate set forth in this Appendix D shall be enforceable in either federal or state court. The enforcement of such agreement, and, except as otherwise expressly provided herein, all procedural aspects governing the conduct of the arbitration, shall be governed by and construed pursuant to the Commercial Rules of the American Arbitration Association.  In deciding the substance of any such Dispute or Controversy, the arbitrator shall apply the substantive laws of the State of Delaware.  The arbitrator shall have authority, power and right to award damages and provide for other remedies as are available at law or in equity in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware, except that the arbitrator shall have no authority to award any damages excluded by Section 22.1 of the Agreement, regardless of whether such damages may be available under the laws of the State of Delaware.  The Members hereby waive their right, if any, to recover any damages excluded by Section 22.1 of the Agreement in connection with any arbitrated Dispute or Controversy.

          Section 4.  Consolidation.  If the Members initiate multiple arbitration proceedings, the subject matters of which are related by common questions of law or fact and which could result in conflicting awards or obligations, then the Members hereby agree that all such proceedings may be consolidated into a single arbitration proceeding.

          Section 5.  Pendency of Dispute; Interim Measures.  The existence of any Dispute or Controversy eligible for referral or referred to arbitration hereunder, or the pendency of the dispute settlement or resolution procedures set forth herein, shall not in and of themselves relieve or excuse either Member from its ongoing duties and obligations under the Agreement or any other Definitive Agreement or any right, duty or obligation arising therefrom; provided, however, that during the pendency of arbitration proceedings and prior to a final award, upon

Appendix D, Page 2

written request by a Member, the arbitrator may issue interim measures for preservation or protection of the status quo.

          Section 6.  No Appeal.  Each Member agrees that arbitration pursuant to this Appendix D shall be the exclusive method for resolving all Disputes and Controversies that are not resolved by mutual agreement and that it will not commence an Action or Proceeding, except to enforce the arbitrator's decision or to compel the other Member to participate in arbitration under this Appendix D.

          Section 7.  Complete Defense.  The Members agree that compliance by a Member with the provisions of this Appendix shall be a complete defense to any Action or Proceeding instituted in any federal or state court, or before any administrative tribunal by any other Member with respect to any Dispute or Controversy which is subject to arbitration as set forth herein, other than a suit or action alleging non-compliance with a final and binding arbitration award rendered hereunder.

          Section 8.  Costs.  Each Member shall bear the costs of its designated representative to select the arbitrator of the Dispute or Controversy and its own attorneys' fees.  The costs of the arbitrator, as well as the additional incidental costs of arbitration, shall be paid for by the non-prevailing Member in the arbitration; provided, however, that where the final decision of the arbitrator is not clearly in favor of either Member, such costs shall be shared equally by the Members.

REQUIRED PROVISIONS OF
ASSET MANAGEMENT POLICY MANUAL

1.     The Power Marketing Services shall include the following:

          (a)  Selling Energy and buying energy, scheduling Energy delivery on available transmission paths, confirming the Energy delivery schedules, rescheduling Energy deliveries as required, securing and selling fuel, nominating fuel to the pipelines for delivery to the Facility or away from the Facility, confirming the fuel nominations, re-nominating fuel schedules as-required, and accounting for all transactions associated with Offtake Agreements, Fuel Supply Agreements and other agreements to optimize the Company's net revenue;

          (b)  Negotiating Transmission Services Agreements, ancillary services agreements, and Fuel Supply Agreements on behalf of the Company;

          (c)  Monitoring, on a routine basis (to be determined by the Management Committee), the relationship between gas prices and power prices and, when and to the extent that gas and power arbitrage opportunities arise that enable the Power Marketer to maximize the Company's net revenues, reselling or buying some portion of the Company's gas supplies and/or gas transportation or gas storage services;

          (d)  Communicating directly with the Plant Manager to ensure that the Energy dispatch, scheduling, and fuel delivery obligations are met and optimized during each scheduling period or delivery day in accordance with the fuel delivery and power generation schedule and requirements of all Offtake Agreements, Fuel Supply Agreements and Transmission Services Agreements;

          (e)  Providing a summary of all trades that were executed for the Company in accordance with the schedule to be determined by the Management Committee, and providing such other reports and information to the Management Committee, the Members and to the Members and any other Persons as the Management Committee shall direct from time to time, including:

               (1)  An asset optimization log showing the daily utilization of the executed Fuel Supply Agreements;

               (2)  A credit log (described in paragraph 10 below);

               (3)  A daily VAR report;

               (4)  A daily position report;

               (5)  A daily transaction report;

               (6)  An Annual Plan report;

Appendix G, Page 1

               (7)  A quarterly stress test report;

               (8)  A gas supply, transportation, and storage report addressing costs, imbalances, and revenues from coordination of and remarketing of fuel-related transactions; and

               (9)  A report of performance compared to the Revenue Benchmarks.

2.     With respect to the Offtake Agreements, the Transmission Services Agreements and the Fuel Supply Agreements, the Power Marketer shall make all schedules and nominations, receive and pay all invoices, deliver and receive all notices and correspondence thereunder, and otherwise perform and administer such agreements in a manner so that the Company and third parties fully satisfy their respective obligations thereunder.

3.     Unless otherwise specified by the Management Committee in its discretion from time to time, the Power Marketer shall obtain the advance approval of the Management Committee for all Offtake Agreements having a term of one (1) year or longer and over $1,000,000 in VAR.  Unless otherwise specified by the Management Committee in its discretion from time to time, Offtake Agreements having a term of less than one (1) year and/or less than $1,000,000 in VAR (and otherwise satisfying any prerequisites imposed from time to time by the Management Committee) will not require advance approval by the Management Committee.  Similar limits for advance approval of Fuel Supply Agreements may be specified by the Management Committee, and below such limits (provided that such agreements otherwise satisfy any prerequisites imposed from time to time by the Management Committee), advance approval by the Management Committee will not be required.

4.     With respect to Offtake Agreements, Fuel Supply Agreements and any other related agreements that, under the Asset Management Policy Manual then in effect, do not require Management Committee pre-approval, the Power Marketer shall notify the Member that is not (or whose Affiliate is not) then the Power Marketer of such agreements in a timely manner.  In addition, either Member may, at any time, submit bids to buy Energy or offer to sell fuel to the Project on terms competitive in the market.

5.     The Power Marketer shall not engage in Self-Dealing Practices on its own behalf or on behalf of any of its Affiliates. "Self-Dealing Practices" are generally defined as the Power Marketer executing purchases of fuel for the Facility or sales of Energy at prices and costs that are economically discriminatory and disadvantageous to the Company or the other Member, or sharing information about the availability of Energy or fuel for the Facility to the disadvantage of the Company or the other Member, for the benefit of the Power Marketer or an Affiliate.  By way of example and not limitation, the following practices by the Power Marketer would constitute Self-Dealing Practices:

·      Making sales of Energy or fuel for the Facility to an Affiliate of the Power Marketer at prices below the current market, or purchasing fuel for the Facility from an Affiliate of the Power Marketer at prices above the current market so as

Appendix G, Page 2

to allow the Power Marketer's Affiliate to make a better margin than it otherwise would have in the absence of the below-market price from the Power Marketer; or

·      Sharing information about the availability of Energy or fuel for the Facility with the Power Marketer's Affiliate that is not shared with the Management Committee or the other Member, thereby disadvantaging the Company or such other Member.

6.     The Power Marketer shall allow each Member, and the agents and representatives thereof, to exercise the right to inspect the Power Marketer's records of all Project related activity, including documentation of executed trades, electronic tags, third party confirmations, and all deal tickets.

7.     Management Committee, and report to the Management Committee on a regular basis (to be determined by the Management Committee), the marked-to-market position of all counterparties in transactions between such counterparty and the Company and/or the Power Marketer on behalf of the Company.  If the level of credit extended by the Power Marketer to any approved counterparty equals or exceeds its designated level of credit, then the Power Marketer will not conduct any Project-related transactions with such counterparty until such counterparty's marked-to-market position has improved to an acceptable level below the designated level of credit.

8.     The Power Marketer shall observe the requirements of the position trading and risk management system to be adopted by the Management Committee, and revised from time to time.  The system will initially require the Power Marketer to manage the Asset Book such that the volumetric and dollar level of exposure in VAR on an annual basis do not exceed two hundred fifty megawatts (250 MW) or $2,000,000 of open transactions, and impose limits on the number of open electricity futures contracts and open gas futures contracts.  The position trading and risk management system will also impose specific risk limits to guide the Power Marketer's transactional activities regarding terms, volumes, seasonality, transaction types, spark spread, unit contingency, transmission, transportation, etc. The position trading and risk management system will require the Power Marketer to provide an audit trail for all executed transactions.

          (f)  Umbrella excess liability insurance of not less than $25,000,000 per occurrence and in the aggregate during construction and $25,000,000 per occurrence and in the aggregate during operation. Such coverages shall be on an occurrence or claims made policy form and over and above coverage provided by the policies described in paragraphs (a) and (b) above and (g) and (h) below whose limits shall apply toward the $25,000,000 limits set forth in this clause (f).  The umbrella and/or excess policies shall not contain endorsements which restrict coverages as set forth in paragraphs (a) and (b) above and paragraph (h) below, and which are provided in the underlying policies.

          (g)  Aircraft liability, to the extent exposure exists, in an amount not less than $10,000,000 for all owned, non-owned and hired aircraft, fixed wing or rotary, used in connection with the operation of the Facility.

          (b)  Be primary with respect to any other insurance for benefit of the Members, the Project Management Company and the Operator;

          (c)  Waive rights of subrogation against the Members, the Project Management Company and the Operator; and

          (d)  Continue in force until the contractual obligations of such Person are fulfilled or completed.

          Subcontractors shall be responsible for tools and equipment brought onto the Facility Site.

3.     Insurance premiums paid by the Project Management Company for the insurance policies required hereunder, and deductibles paid or incurred by the Project Management Company on claims relating to the Project, shall constitute Reimbursable Project Management Expenses.

4.     Each insurance policy required hereunder shall provide (and any certificate evidencing the existence of such insurance policy shall certify) that such insurance policy shall not be canceled, non-renewed or coverage thereunder materially reduced unless the Members and the Project Management Company shall have received written notice of cancellation, non-renewal or material reduction in coverage, and the Members and the Project Management Company shall receive not less than thirty (30) days' notice of such cancellation, non-renewal or material reduction in coverage. In the event any insurance policy is to be canceled due to non-payment of premiums, the requirements of the preceding sentence shall apply except that the written notice shall be sent to the Members and the Project Management Company on the earliest possible date but in no event less than ten (10) days prior to the effective date of such cancellation.
