established pursuant to the Ohio Rate Stabilization Plan approved
in PUCO
Case No. 03-2144-EL-ATA, et al, and any subsequent modifications
or
proceedings related thereto (“Ohio Auction”). In the event Buyer obtains
Capacity and Energy for Provider of Last Resort service from an
unaffiliated supplier through the Ohio Auction, Buyer is not obligated
to
obtain and pay for that portion of its Power Supply Requirements
from
Seller.

SALE
AND PURCHASE OF CAPACITY AND ENERGY
|
|
A.
|
Seller
shall
make available to Buyer Capacity and Energy sufficient to satisfy

Energy
available at the Delivery Points. Capacity and Energy supplied shall
be
sixty-hertz, three phase alternating current. The Power Supply
Requirements will be provided in accordance with Good Utility Practice,
and where applicable, the provisions of the OATT of the Transmission
Provider or any superseding tariff. The Capacity and Energy provided
by
Seller will comply with all requirements for Network Resources under
the
Transmission Provider’s OATT and Buyer’s Network Transmission Agreements
with Transmission Provider.

If
Seller’s
credit is adversely impacted during the term of this Agreement, Buyer
agrees to allow Seller to acquire purchased Power as agent for the
Buyer
as reasonably necessary to minimize supply costs under this Agreement.
Buyer will pay all of the costs associated with acquiring this Power,
but
Seller will not charge Buyer any broker fee for performing this service.

A.
|
On
or before
November 1, 2005 and on November 1 of each subsequent year during
the term
of this Agreement, Buyer will inform Seller of its initial annual
Capacity
and Energy forecast for the next calendar year. Such initial annual
forecast shall include Buyer’s Power Supply Requirements for the year, by
month. Based on Buyer’s initial annual forecast, as well as other
information that may be communicated between Buyer and Seller as
necessary
and appropriate for system planning, Seller shall procure the necessary
Generation Resources and develop forecasts of Buyer’s Power Supply
Requirements on a weekly, daily and hourly basis, and shall periodically
update such forecasts to reflect current circumstances.
|
|
B.
|
Buyer
shall
update its annual forecast of Capacity and Energy for any change
or
expected change in its Power Supply Requirements that would materially
affect the annual forecast provided to Solutions. Buyer shall provide
the
updated forecast to Solutions for any full month(s) remaining in
the
calendar year within thirty days of becoming aware of the change
or
expected change in its Power Supply Requirements.
|
|
C.
|
Buyer
is
responsible for scheduling delivery of its Power Supply Requirements
with
Transmission Provider in accordance with the OATT. Buyer will
simultaneously furnish its schedule to Seller and Transmission Provider.
Seller will supply Capacity and Energy to Buyer in accordance with
the
schedule provided to Transmission Provider. Buyer and Seller acknowledge
that Buyer’s Power Supply Requirements may vary from the schedule provided
to Transmission Provider. Buyer agrees that it is responsible for
payment
of any Transmission Provider charges incurred when actual Power Supply
Requirements differ from the schedule provided. Seller shall be
responsible for payment of any Transmission Provider charges incurred
by
its failure to deliver the scheduled amount of Capacity and Energy.
|
|
D.
|
Seller
agrees
to operate its Generating Resources in accordance with Good Utility
Practice, including, but not limited to the efficient and economic
dispatch of the Generating Resources. Seller will self-schedule sufficient

be relieved of its obligations insofar as they are affected by Force Majeure.
The Party affected by an event of Force Majeure shall provide the other Party
with written notice setting forth the full details thereof as soon as
practicable after the occurrence of such event and shall take all reasonable
measures to mitigate or minimize the effects of such event of Force Majeure.
Nothing in this Section requires Seller to deliver, or Buyer to receive, Power
at Delivery Points other than those Delivery Points designated under this
Agreement, or relieves Buyer of its obligation to make payment under Section

lightning, flood, backwater caused by flood, fire, explosion, act of the public
enemy, epidemic, accident, failure of facilities, equipment or fuel supply,

of God, war, riot, civil disturbances, strike, labor disturbances, labor or
material shortage, national emergency, restraint by court order or other public
authority or governmental agency, interruption of synchronous operation, or
other similar or dissimilar causes beyond the control of the Party affected,
which causes such Party could not have avoided by exercising good electric
operating practice. Nothing contained herein shall be construed to require
a
Party to settle any strike, lockout, work stoppage, or other industrial
disturbance or dispute in which it maybe involved or to take an appeal from
any
judicial, regulatory or administrative action.
B. Transfer
of
Title and Indemnification
Title
and risk of
loss related to the Power Supply Requirements shall transfer to the Buyer at
the

Requirements to Buyer free and clear of all liens, security interests, claims
and encumbrances or any interest therein or thereto by any person arising prior
to the Delivery Points. Each Party shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless
the
other Party from and against any claims arising from or out of any event,
circumstance, act or incident first occurring or existing during the period
when
control and title to the Power Supply Requirements is vested in the other
Party.
C. Confidentiality
Neither
Party shall
disclose to third parties Confidential Information obtained from the other
Party
pursuant to this Agreement except in order to comply with the requirements
of
