A. The Utilities and NEA are parties to certain Power Purchase Agreements, as amended, and as set forth in Schedule A hereof (individually, BECo A, BECo B, CECo 1, CECo 2, collectively, the “Power Purchase Agreements”) pursuant to which the Utilities purchase from NEA contract capacity and the associated energy generated by NEA’s Bellingham power generation facility (the “Facility”). On October 17, 2003, Utilities requested the submission of proposals regarding the transfer of entitlements to certain power purchase agreements. In response, on December 3, 2003, NEA proposed the restructuring of the Power Purchase Agreements. The implementation of the agreement of the Parties with respect to the Utilities’ request for proposals and NEA’s proposal for the restructuring of the Power Purchase Agreements is effectuated by the provisions of this Agreement, including the Interim Amount Adjustments (as hereinafter defined), and the Amended and Restated Power Purchase Agreements (as hereinafter defined).
B. In connection with a financing relating to the Facility and a nominal 300 MW natural gas-fired electrical and steam generating plant owned by North Jersey Energy Associates, A Limited Partnership (“NJEA”) in the town of Sayreville, New Jersey (the “Sayreville Facility”), ESI Tractebel Funding Corp., a Delaware corporation (formerly IEC Funding Corporation) (“ESI Funding”) issued its senior secured securities (the “Senior Secured Notes”) pursuant to that certain Trust Indenture, dated as of November 15, 1994, among ESI Funding, NEA, NJEA and State Street Bank and Trust Company, as trustee (the “Senior Trustee”), as supplemented by that certain First Supplemental Indenture dated as of November 15, 1994, and that certain Second Supplemental Trust Indenture dated as of January 14, 1998, (collectively, the “Senior Indenture”). As part of the security for the Senior Secured Notes, NEA collaterally assigned its right, title and interest in and to the Power Purchase Agreements to the Senior Trustee on behalf of the holders of the Senior Secured Notes (the “Senior Note Holders”), and pledged all of the revenues received under, and granted a priority perfected security interest in, the Power Purchase Agreements to the Senior Trustee on behalf of the holders of the Senior Note Holders pursuant to the Senior Indenture and related security documents. The Senior Secured Notes are also secured by NEA’s interests in the Facility and its related revenue-generating agreements.
C. In connection with an additional financing to, among other purposes, acquire and provide additional capital for the Facility and the Sayreville Facility, ESI Tractebel Acquisition Corp., a Delaware corporation (“ESI Acquisition,” and together with ESI Funding, the “Issuers”) issued its secured securities (the “Junior Secured Notes”) pursuant to that certain Indenture, dated as of February 19, 1998, among ESI Acquisition, Northeast Energy, LP, a Delaware limited partnership (“NELP”) and Northeast Energy, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“NELLC”) directly and wholly owned by NELP, and State Street
Bank and Trust Company, as trustee (the “Junior Trustee”), as supplemented by that certain First Supplemental Indenture dated as of February 19, 1998, (collectively, the “Junior Indenture”). The Junior Secured Notes are payable by NELP from distributions to it by NEA and NJEA.
D. Simultaneously with the execution of this Agreement, the Utilities and NEA have executed and delivered amended and restated power purchase agreements (attached hereto as Schedule D and, as amended by the New PPA Amendments (as hereinafter defined), if any, collectively, the “Amended and Restated Power Purchase Agreements”) to provide, among other things, that NEA will sell and deliver and the Utilities will purchase and receive certain energy and a stated amount of capacity from the Facility and/or from sources other than the Facility.

E. NEA will collaterally assign all of its rights under the Amended and Restated Power Purchase Agreements to the Senior Trustee on behalf of the Senior Note Holders as collateral security for the Senior Secured Notes pursuant to the “Assignment Agreement”.
F. On the Closing Date (as hereinafter defined): (1) the Amended and Restated Power Purchase Agreements will become effective in accordance with their terms, superceding the Power Purchase Agreements and (2) the collateral assignment contemplated by the Assignment Agreement will occur. The foregoing (and any necessary transactions between NEA and the Utilities incident to any of them) shall collectively be referred to herein as the “Transactions”.
G. The Closing Date will not occur until the Massachusetts Department of Telecommunications and Energy (the “MDTE”) has approved this Agreement, the Amended and Restated Power Purchase Agreements, and the Transactions, in each case, by a written decision (herein, the “MDTE Order”) that: (1) is reasonably acceptable in form and substance to the Utilities and NEA; (2) is final and non-appealable, unless such condition is waived in writing by the Parties (the “Final Decision”): and (3) includes the findings set forth in Schedule G hereof (the “Required Findings”).

(a) At any time after the Contract Date and no later than forty-five (45) days after NEA provides the Utilities with notice of waiver or satisfaction of the condition set forth in Section 6.2(k) hereof, the Utilities shall file, or cause to be filed, an initial petition (a “Petition”) with the MDTE requesting that the MDTE cause the Final Order Date to occur as soon as reasonably practicable, but in no event later than January 1, 2005. As and to the extent permitted by applicable law, the applicable Utility and NEA intend that certain provisions of this Agreement and related documents shall be “Confidential Information” and the applicable Utility and NEA shall seek confidential treatment by the MDTE of all confidential materials included in such Petition, or otherwise provided to the MDTE in support of the Petition. Prior to the Filing Date, the applicable Utility and NEA will reasonably cooperate with respect to identifying their respective confidential material in such agreements and related documents for which the Utility shall seek confidential treatment and any other materials to be submitted to the MDTE in support of the Petition. Upon filing of the Petition with the MDTE, the Parties will support the Petition and the data contained therein and shall use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain the Final Decision; provided that if the Final Order Date has not occurred by January 1, 2005, the Parties shall continue to use diligent efforts to secure the Final Decision, subject to their respective rights of termination under Section 7.1 hereof.
(b) Each party shall promptly provide to the other (whether in writing or orally) any information relating to any material event or development relating to the MDTE review and approval process referenced in Section 5.2(a) above. In addition, each Party shall respond promptly and fully to any reasonable inquiries that a requesting Party may make at any other time relating to such process.
(c) From the Contract Date through the Closing Date, neither Party shall enter into Gas Transactions outside of its ordinary course of business where such transactions are designed to manipulate the Adjusted Bid Price Amount. If a Party has cause to believe that such Gas Transactions have been executed by the other Party, the first Party may request an audit of the other Party’s records (an “Audit”). The Audit shall be conducted by a nationally recognized accounting firm reasonably acceptable to the audited Party and shall be confined to relevant Gas Transactions executed thirty (30) days prior to the Calculation Date. The Party requesting the Audit shall bear all costs of the Audit; provided, however, if the Audit reveals that there is a reasonable basis to conclude that the audited Party, acting outside of its ordinary course of business, has manipulated the Adjusted Bid Price Amount, then the auditor shall recalculate the Adjusted Bid Price Amount and the audited Party will pay the difference between the Adjusted Bid Price Amount originally paid and the corrected amount, plus the cost of the Audit. To the extent the audited Party disputes the Audit’s findings, the audited Party may submit the dispute to the dispute resolution process set forth at Article 10 of the Amended and Restated Power Purchase Agreements.
5.3 Status Pending Closing.
(a) Continued Effectiveness. The Power Purchase Agreements will remain in force and effect during the Interim Period and nothing herein shall constitute or be considered as an amendment or modification to the Power Purchase Agreements.
(b) Facility Scheduling. NEA shall continue to use the Facility to satisfy all capacity and energy obligations under the Power Purchase Agreements during the Interim Period. The Utilities will schedule NEA’s energy deliveries on a day-ahead basis at the Interim Period Delivery Points according to
- 14 -
the market rules, manuals and procedures adopted by ISO and/or the members of NEPOOL. In addition, the bidding, scheduling and operation of the Facility during the Interim Period shall be conducted in the same manner and on the same basis as was conducted during the period preceding the Contract Date, and shall be based on information customarily and routinely provided by NEA to the Utilities.
(c) Energy and Capacity Pricing. During the Interim Period, NEA will deliver energy and capacity from the Facility and the Utilities will purchase and receive such energy and capacity from the Facility. Energy generated by the Facility, and capacity attributable to the Facility, will be delivered by NEA to the Utilities at the Interim Period Delivery Points and will be purchased by the Utilities at the Existing Prices and paid for by the Utilities in accordance with the terms of the Power Purchase Agreements.
(d) Termination of Interim Period. Upon the earlier to occur of (i) the Closing Date or (ii) the Deadline, the Interim Period shall terminate and the provisions set forth in Sections 5.3 and 5.4 shall have no effect and will become void. If the Closing Date occurs prior to the Deadline, then from and after the termination of the Interim Period the Amended and Restated Power Purchase Agreements will govern the relationship between the Parties. If the Deadline occurs prior to the Closing Date, then from and after the termination of the Interim Period the terms and conditions of the Power Purchase Agreements will continue to govern the relationship between the Parties.
5.4 Deliveries of Energy Outside of the Power Purchase Agreements During the Interim Period.
(a) Interim Period Make Up Delivery. For any hour that the Facility is not capable of generating energy in a quantity sufficient for NEA to deliver energy at the Interim Period On-Peak Delivery Quantities and Interim Period Off-Peak Delivery Quantities, NEA, or a third party acting on behalf of NEA, shall deliver at the Interim Period Delivery Points, electric energy in a quantity equal to the difference between the Net Delivered MWhs delivered from the Facility and the sum of the Interim Period On-Peak Delivery Quantities and Interim Period Off-Peak Delivery Quantities (“Interim Period Make Up Delivery”). An Interim Period Make Up Delivery will not be subject to a loss adjustment factor.
(b) Interim Period Facility Meter Data. During the Interim Period, the Utilities will use commercially reasonable efforts to provide NEA with the prior day’s hourly net generator values in ISO upload format applicable to the Facility (“Data”) by no later than 1:00 PM EPT on the next NSTAR regular working day. NEA will schedule an Interim Period Make Up Delivery pursuant to Manual 28, Section 9.1.1 in the RTM upon receipt of such Data. Any errors will be corrected in the RTM pursuant to Manual 28, Section 9.1.1. In the event that a Utility fails to confirm a scheduled Interim Period Make Up Delivery in accordance with NEPOOL scheduling procedures for the RTM, then the Interim Period Make Up Delivery scheduled by NEA (whether or not confirmed by the Utility) plus the Net Delivered MWhs delivered by the Facility during the relevant period will be deemed to be the relevant Interim Period On-Peak Delivery Quantities and Interim Period Off-Peak Delivery Quantities.
(c) Interim Period Pricing. Energy delivered by or on behalf of NEA and received by the Utilities pursuant to an Interim Period Make Up Delivery will be purchased and sold at the RTM LMP Prices at the applicable Interim Period Delivery Points. Interim Period Make Up energy will be paid for by the Utilities directly to NEA or directly to the party providing energy on behalf of NEA within twenty (20) days of the receipt by the applicable Utility of an invoice for such energy.
- 15 -
5.5 Closing Payment.
(a) Payment Amount. The Closing Payment (equal to the sum of the Closing Date Amount and the revised Adjusted Bid Price Amount, as calculated pursuant to Section 5.5(b)), shall be paid on the Closing Date. If the Closing Payment is a positive amount, the Utilities shall cause NSTAR to make payment to NEA of such amount. If the Closing Payment is a negative amount, NEA shall pay NSTAR, on behalf of the Utilities, the absolute value of such amount.
(b) Revised Adjusted Bid Price Amount. For purposes of calculating the Closing Payment components, the revised Adjusted Bid Price Amount shall be determined as provided below:
| (i) | If, on the Calculation Date, the Adjusted Bid Price Amount is less than negative then (A) NEA may elect to have the revised Adjusted Bid Price Amount be the calculated Adjusted Bid Price Amount, in which event the Closing Date will occur as scheduled or (B) the Utilities may elect to have the revised Adjusted Bid Price Amount be negative in which event the Closing Date will occur as scheduled. |
| (ii) | If, On the Calculation Date, the Adjusted Bid Price Amount is greater than negative and less than positive the revised Adjusted Bid Price Amount will be the Adjusted Bid Price Amount. |
| (iii) | If, on the Calculation Date, the Adjusted Bid Price Amount is greater than positive then (A) the Utilities may elect to have the revised Adjusted Bid Price Amount be the calculated Adjusted Bid Price Amount, in which event the Closing Date will occur as scheduled or (B) NEA may elect to have the revised Adjusted Bid Price Amount equal in which event the Closing Date will occur as scheduled. |
| (iv) | For the avoidance of doubt, if on the Calculation Date, the Adjusted Bid Price Amount equals zero, the revised Adjusted Bid Price Amount will be zero. |
| (v) | If neither election as set forth in Section 5.5(b)(i) above is made, then the Closing Date may be postponed as provided in this Section 5.5(b)(v) and on each successive Business Day the Parties will recalculate the Adjusted Bid Price Amount until the earlier of: (A) the Business Day preceding the Deadline or (B) the first date on which the Adjusted Bid Price Amount is greater than or equal to an amount between negative and positive. None of the Parties shall have the obligation to extend or permit extension of the Closing Date beyond the Deadline. It is agreed that if the calculation described in clause (B) does not occur on or before the Business Day preceding the Deadline, then this Agreement will terminate on the Deadline. It is further agreed that if such calculation does occur on or before the Business Day preceding the Deadline, then the Closing Date will occur on the Business Day immediately following the date of such calculation, and the revised Adjusted Bid Price Amount will be determined in accordance with Section 5.5(b)(ii). |
- 16 -
| (vi) | If neither election as set forth in Section 5.5(b)(iii) above is made, then the Closing Date may be postponed as provided in this Section 5.5(b)(vi) and on each successive Business Day the Parties will recalculate the Adjusted Bid Price Amount until the earlier of: (A the Business Day preceding the Deadline or (B) the first date on which the Adjusted Bid Price Amount is less than or equal to positive (and not less than negative). None of the Parties shall have the obligation to extend or permit extension of the Closing Date beyond the Deadline. It is agreed that if the calculation described in clause (B) does not occur on or before the Business Day preceding the Deadline, then this Agreement will terminate on the Deadline. It is further agreed that if such calculation does occur on or before the Business Day preceding the Deadline, then the Closing Date will occur on the Business Day immediately following the date of such calculation, and the revised Adjusted Bid Price Amount will be determined in accordance with Section 5.5(b)(ii). |
