adjusted, if necessary, as follows:

respect to Indonesian Taxes or tax attributes shall result in an
increase or decrease in Indonesian taxes payable by PJP (other
than to the extent such increases or decreases are allocable to
sales of electricity or electric capacity to third parties) or
United States taxes payable by the Shareholders (as assumed in
the Closing Model), then the Closing Model shall be amended to
correct any inaccuracies set forth therein and the Tax Gross-Up
shall be equitably adjusted to maintain the Closing Model's
original project internal rate of return (i.e. 16.65%), with
differences in prior period payments being subject to interest at

Power Sales Agreement.
(b) If PTFI is purchasing the Shares and Subordinated
Loans, if any, concurrently with its termination of the Restated
Power Sales Agreement following an Event of Default by PJP under
Section 16.01(d) thereof or as a result of a Change in Control,
then the Shareholder Share Purchase Option Price shall be the (i)
the Outstanding Investment applicable to such Shares and (ii) any

Price applicable to such Shares and (ii) any cash and cash
equivalents remaining in PJP due to a legal or contractual
prohibition against distributing such funds to shareholders,

Shareholder Share Purchase Option Closing Date.
(d) If the Shareholder Share Purchase Option Notice is

Shares minus $250,000 (but not less than zero), and (ii) any cash
and cash equivalents remaining in PJP due to a legal or
contractual prohibition against distributing such funds to
shareholders, plus, if applicable, (iii) the Net Book Value of

Section 6.06 Fairness of Tax Gross-Up. If the Shareholder
Share Purchase Option Price is determined pursuant to Section
6.05(c), (d) or (e), then the Tax Gross-Up payable by PTFI to PJP
will be adjusted, if necessary, as follows:
(a) If the inaccuracy of any of the assumptions set
forth in Schedule VI to the Restated Power Sales Agreement with
respect to Indonesian Taxes or tax attributes shall result in an
increase or decrease in Indonesian taxes payable by PJP (other
than to the extent such increases or decreases are allocable to
sales of electricity or electric capacity to third parties) or
United States taxes payable by the Shareholders (as assumed in
the Closing Model), then the Closing Model shall be amended to
correct any inaccuracies set forth therein and the Tax Gross-Up
shall be equitably adjusted to maintain the Closing Model's
original project internal rate of return (i.e. 16.65%), with
differences in prior period payments being subject to interest at
the Default Interest Rate.
(b) If the highest marginal U.S. corporate income tax
rate at the Shareholder Share Purchase Option Date is other than
35%, then the Closing Model shall be amended to correct this
difference and the Tax Gross-Up adjusted accordingly.

an increase or decrease in the Tax Gross-Up payable by PJP
pursuant to the calculation of the Tax Gross-Up in the Closing
Model, then the Closing Model shall be adjusted to reflect such

of First Refusal"), such Shareholder Share Right of First Refusal

connection with a financing which is approved by PTFI; and (c)
Shareholder Share Transfers in accordance with Sections 7.03 or

Section 7.03 Transfer to a Pre-Approved Party. (a) Each
of the Shareholders may, at its option, seek a waiver by PTFI of
the Shareholder Share Right of First Refusal as hereinafter
provided.
(b) Each Shareholder may make a Shareholder Share
Transfer to the extent that such Shareholder (i) gives PTFI
written notice of its intention to make a Shareholder Share
Transfer of any Shares and Subordinated Loans, if any (the
"Shareholder Share Transfer Intent Notice"), (ii) PTFI does not
notify such Shareholder, within thirty (30) Days after having

Shareholder Shares upon the terms proposed by such Shareholder
provided that if such proposed terms include non-cash
compensation which would be commercially difficult or impossible
for PTFI to provide, PTFI's purchase price shall include the fair
market value of such non-cash compensation as determined by
agreement of PTFI and such Shareholder, or by an appraiser
jointly-selected by PTFI and such shareholder of the parties are
unable to agree, (y) to waive the Shareholder Share Right of
First Refusal with regard to a Shareholder Share Transfer of the
Available Shareholder Shares to any or all of the proposed third
party purchasers (each such third party as to which PTFI waives

Party"), or (z) to refuse to waive the Shareholder Share Right of
First Refusal as to any or all of the proposed third party
purchasers.
Section 7.04 Shareholder Share Right of First Refusal.
Notwithstanding the failure by any Shareholder to obtain a pre-

7.03(b), any Shareholder may make a Shareholder Share Transfer to
the extent that such Shareholder (i) receives a written offer
from a Person to purchase all or a portion of its Shares and
Subordinated Loans, if any, which offer such Shareholder intends
to accept if the other Shareholders do not exercise their rights
under the Restated Shareholders Agreement and PTFI does not
exercise its rights pursuant to this Article, (ii) gives PTFI
prior written notice of the offer and such Shareholder's intent
to accept such offer (the "Shareholder Share Sale Notice") and
PTFI does not notify such Shareholder, within ninety (90) Days
after having received the Shareholder Share Sale Notice, of
PTFI's intent to exercise its rights pursuant to this Article,
and (iii) otherwise complies with the provisions of this Option
Agreement. The Shareholder Share Sale Notice shall contain a

assigns.

acquired by PTFI shall occur within one hundred eighty (180) Days
of the notice by PTFI to PJP that it intends to exercise its
rights and acquire the Available Shareholder Shares.
Section 7.07 Shareholder's Rights upon PTFI's Waiver. In
the event that PTFI does not exercise its (i) right to purchase
the Available Shareholder Shares and waives the Shareholder Share
Right of First Refusal as to such Available Shareholder Shares
with respect to one or more of the proposed third party
purchasers specified in a Shareholder Share Transfer Intent
Notice, then such Shareholder may make a Shareholder Share
Transfer of those Available Shareholder Shares to a Pre-Approved
Party on terms no more favorable to such Pre-Approved Party than
the terms proposed in the Shareholder Share Transfer Intent
Notice, or (ii) Shareholder Share Right of First Refusal as to
such Available Shareholder Shares (and none of the Shareholders
exercise their rights under the Restated Shareholders Agreement),
