REMVEC II AGREEMENT
-------------------
DATED AS OF JULY 1, 1994
-----------------------
REMVEC II AGREEMENT
--------------------
This Agreement is made as of July 1, 1994, by and among various Entities
(as that term is defined in Section 15.14 of the New England Power Pool
Agreement dated as of September 1, 1971, as it may be amended from time to
time (the "NEPOOL Agreement")) which are engaged in the electric utility
business within the geographic area served as of June 30, 1994 through the
Rhode Island, Eastern Massachusetts, Vermont Energy Control ("REMVEC")
satellite dispatching center established under the Amended REMVEC Agreement
dated as of August 12, 1977 (the "Expiring Agreement") and that have become
participants in the New England Power Pool ("NEPOOL") in accordance with the
terms of the NEPOOL Agreement. As of the effective date hereof, each entity
or group of entities listed below constitutes a single original "REMVEC II
Participant" under this Agreement. For the definition of "REMVEC II
Participant" at subsequent times, see Article XII, below.
ARTICLE I. Basic Understandings
--------------------
As a result of the implementation by NEPOOL of recommendations made in
the 1993 Strategic Pool Operations Review Task Force Report, New England Power
Exchange ("NEPEX"), the central dispatch and interchange office established
pursuant to the NEPOOL Agreement, will assume direct control over the
generating units in New England on or about July 1, 1997. REMVEC, which was
established to operate as a satellite of NEPEX by the Expiring Agreement,
would be expected to become a transmission security analysis center and to
assist NEPEX in the coordination and control of the transmission system.
Thus, REMVEC's responsibilities as a NEPEX satellite organization would be
significantly reduced. It would no longer have generation control
responsibilities (voice communication with and dispatching of its
participants' generation real power output). REMVEC's tasks would be limited
to those directly related to preserving the security of its participants' bulk
power systems.
Following extensive discussion and deliberation by REMVEC's
Participants, the REMVEC Operating Committee and the REMVEC Executive
Committee, the REMVEC Executive Committee, by unanimous vote taken on April
22, 1994, accepted a proposal made by New England Power Company ("NEP") to
provide security analysis services to participants in a new organization to be
established and maintained by the participants for the purposes of operating
as a satellite of NEPEX and fulfilling its satellite responsibilities by
entering into, overseeing and administering on behalf of its participants a
security analysis services agreement with NEP. This Agreement (to be called
the "REMVEC II Agreement") establishes the contemplated organization, and sets
forth the terms and conditions under which its Participants agree to be bound.
In consideration of their mutual undertakings herein, the REMVEC II
Participants hereby agree to establish and maintain an organization, called
Rhode Island, Eastern Massachusetts, Vermont Energy Control II ("REMVEC II").
REMVEC II shall become and shall operate as a satellite of NEPEX as of the
date on which NEP commences to provide "Base Services" under the provisions of
the Security Analysis Services Agreement between and among NEP, REMVEC II and
REMVEC II Participants (the "SAS Agreement") which is being executed
concurrent with this Agreement. A copy of the SAS Agreement is attached to
and incorporated into this Agreement as "Appendix A". Prior to that date,
REMVEC will continue to operate as a satellite of NEPEX. It is expressly
understood that the Expiring Agreement shall remain in effect until it is
terminated in accordance with its terms and that, until it is so terminated,
it will coexist with this Agreement. Any and all expenses incurred or to be
incurred under the Expiring Agreement shall be treated as separate and
distinct from any and all expenses incurred or to be incurred under this
Agreement and/or the SAS Agreement. The REMVEC II Participants further agree
to the following terms and conditions.
ARTICLE II. Objectives
----------
The objectives of REMVEC II are:
1. To preserve the security of the bulk power systems of the REMVEC II
Participants.
2. To operate as a satellite of NEPEX.
ARTICLE III. Effective Date and Term
-----------------------
Following (i) execution of this Agreement by all entities that were
Participants in REMVEC as of July 1, 1994, and (ii) the receipt of all
necessary regulatory approvals of this Agreement (including, without
limitation, that of the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission), this Agreement
shall become effective as of July 1, 1994. Each REMVEC II Participant shall
remain a REMVEC II Participant at least through midnight on June 30, 1998. A
REMVEC II Participant (with the sole exception of NEP) may terminate its
participation in REMVEC II as of midnight on June 30 of any calendar year
beginning with 1998 and ending with 2004 by providing REMVEC II not less than
two (2) years' prior written notice; provided, however, that such REMVEC II
Participant shall have received approval prior to the giving of such notice
from the NEPOOL Management Committee allowing it to be a direct reporting
entity to NEPEX under the NEPOOL Agreement. A REMVEC II Participant may
terminate its participation in REMVEC II as of midnight on June 30, 2005 or as
of midnight on June 30 of any subsequent year by providing REMVEC II not less
than three (3) years prior written notice. REMVEC II shall cease to exist and
this Agreement shall be terminated, except as to any remaining payment
obligations, as of the date on which the last remaining REMVEC II Participant
terminates its participation in REMVEC II in accordance with the foregoing
provisions.
If (i) a REMVEC II Participant or entity which is a member of a REMVEC
II Participant ceases to be a member of NEPOOL pursuant to Section 16.2 of the
NEPOOL Agreement or ceases to be a member of NEPOOL for any other reason or
(ii) if the REMVEC II Executive Committee determines that any REMVEC II
Participant or entity which is a member of a REMVEC II Participant has failed
to take in good faith such steps as may reasonably be required to perform its
obligations pursuant to this Agreement and such failure continues for an
unreasonable length of time following appropriate notice to such REMVEC II
Participant or entity, the REMVEC II Executive Committee may thereupon
terminate such Participant's or entity's status as a REMVEC II Participant or
member of a REMVEC II Participant.
Any REMVEC II Participant or entity whose participation in REMVEC II is
terminated pursuant to this Article or any other provision of this Agreement
shall be responsible for and shall make provision for (i) any termination
charges due NEP under the SAS Agreement; (ii) all debts and obligations then
due or to become due from said REMVEC II Participant or entity from
transactions up to said withdrawal; and (iii) making available to REMVEC II,
at least until the remaining REMVEC II Participants can provide alternate
facilities, any facilities said REMVEC II Participant or entity then has for
use in whole or in part in connection with REMVEC II operations.
Nothing herein shall be construed in such fashion as to make a REMVEC II
Participant or entity, without its consent, a guarantor or endorser of, or
otherwise liable for, any indebtedness (including any indebtedness for money
borrowed or payments deferred) incurred by or on behalf of REMVEC II or others
in connection with REMVEC II matters other than the REMVEC II Participant's or
entity's obligation under this Agreement to pay its share of the expenses of
REMVEC II referred to in this Article III, and in Articles IX and X hereof and
contractual obligations referred to in Article VI hereof.
ARTICLE IV. REMVEC II Participant Obligations with Respect to the SAS
Agreement
---------------------------------------------------------
Concurrent with execution of this Agreement, each REMVEC II Participant
shall execute a copy of the SAS Agreement, and shall fulfill its obligations
under that Agreement.
ARTICLE V. Executive Committee
-------------------
An Executive Committee shall be established. Each REMVEC II Participant
whose Territorial KWH during the preceding calendar year represents 3% or more
of the aggregate REMVEC II Territorial KWH for such period shall be entitled
to one member and one alternate on the Executive Committee. The remaining
REMVEC II Participants shall be divided into two groups, (a) one group
consisting of investor-owned REMVEC II Participants and (b) the other group
consisting of municipally-owned utilities, cooperatively-owned utilities and
the balance of the REMVEC II Participants; and each group shall have the right
to appoint and be represented by one member and one alternate.
At its annual meeting the Executive committee shall elect from its
membership a Chairperson and a Vice Chairperson and shall also elect a
Secretary who need not be a member of the Committee. They shall have the
powers and duties usually incident to such offices.
The Executive Committee shall hold its annual meeting in January or at a
special meeting called for such purpose in lieu thereof at such time and place
as the Chairperson shall designate and shall hold other meetings at the call
of the Chairperson. Any two or more members may call a meeting of the
Executive Committee in case the Chairperson shall fail to call a meeting upon
request. Normally, notices of meetings shall specify the subject matters to
be acted upon at the meeting and shall be made available to each member of the
Executive Committee at least five days prior to the date of the meeting.
However, in the case of emergency, the Executive Committee may meet upon call
of any member in such manner as the Executive Committee shall determine.
Each member of the Executive Committee or his/her alternate shall have
the right to cast a number of votes equal to the Territorial KWH of his/her
REMVEC II Participant(s) during the preceding calendar year. The affirmative
votes of at least three members representing REMVEC II Participants who have
at least two-thirds (2/3) of the aggregate Territorial KWH of all REMVEC II
Participants during the preceding calendar year shall be required for the
adoption of a resolution which shall become binding upon the REMVEC II
Participants, with respect to REMVEC II matters; provided, however,
(i) No single member shall be capable of defeating the adoption of a
resolution relating to any operational matter;
(ii) the negative votes of any two or more members representing REMVEC
II Participants having at least 15% of such total number of votes
shall defeat any such action; and
(iii) the unanimous affirmative vote of all members of the Executive
Committee shall be required for the adoption of a resolution
arranging for the addition of any "Supplemental Services" under
Article IV ("Services") of the SAS Agreement.
As used in this Agreement, "Territorial KWH" will be the annual KWH load
of a REMVEC II Participant calculated by adding for the 12-month calendar year
the REMVEC II Participant's net generated KWH, all non-firm purchases from
other REMVEC II Participants, all purchases (firm and non-firm) from non-
REMVEC II Participants, and subtracting all sales (firm and non-firm) to non-
participants and all non-firm sales to other REMVEC II Participants. In the
case of REMVEC II Participants that do not have load, a proxy shall be
developed for use as the Participant's "Territorial KWH" by the Operating
Committee and submitted for approval by the Executive Committee. Such proxy
may be based on the Participant's generation on an equivalent load basis or on
some other reasonable criteria.
ARTICLE VI. Duties and Authority of the Executive Committee.
-----------------------------------------------
The Executive Committee shall have and may exercise all powers of this
REMVEC II Agreement and may administer, enforce and interpret the provisions
of this Agreement in order to accomplish the objectives of REMVEC II
consistent with the provisions of this Agreement. It may delegate powers to
others, including the Operating Committee, and may arrange for accounting,
engineering, legal and other required services. However, with the sole
exception of the SAS Agreement, all contracts on account of REMVEC II shall be
approved by resolution of the Executive Committee and when executed by at
least three of the REMVEC II Participants who have at least two-thirds (2/3)
of the aggregate Territorial KWH of all REMVEC II Participants during the
preceding calendar year shall be binding on all REMVEC II Participants.
The chairperson of the Executive Committee is hereby authorized to
execute the SAS Agreement on behalf of REMVEC II and such other documents as
may be necessary to seek and obtain approval of the same from the Federal
Energy Regulatory Commission under the Federal Power Act.
The Executive Committee shall direct the Operating Committee to conduct
a review of all criteria, rules and standards and operating procedures in
effect under the Existing Agreement and to make a recommendation to it
concerning the criteria, rules and standards and operating procedures that
should be adopted under this Agreement. Prior to January 1, 1997, the
Executive Committee shall adopt appropriate criteria, rules and standards and
operating procedures for REMVEC II.
In the event that a notice of termination is received from NEP under the
provisions of Article III or the SAS Agreement, the Executive Committee shall
meet and explore alternative arrangements under which the objectives of REMVEC
II might be met under this Agreement.
Any disputes hereunder or related to the REMVEC II operations will be
submitted to the Executive Committee, including, without limitation, disputes
between NEP and a REMVEC II Participant or Participants of a technical and/or
operational nature relating to the provision of service by NEP under the SAS
Agreement that are not resolved by the Operating Committee in accordance with
the provisions of Article VIII, below. Each REMVEC II Participant, subject to
its right to arbitration pursuant to Article XI hereof, agrees to be bound by
the decisions of the Executive Committee.
The Secretary of the Executive Committee shall maintain a current list
of addresses for the giving of notices to REMVEC II and all REMVEC II
Participants under the provisions of the SAS Agreement and shall provide a
copy of such list to all parties to the SAS Agreement upon any party's
request.
ARTICLE VII. Operating Committee
-------------------
An Operating Committee shall be established. REMVEC II Participants and
groups of REMVEC II Participants shall be entitled to membership on the
Operating Committee in the same manner and to the same extent as they are
entitled to membership on the Executive Committee. At its annual meetings the
Operating Committee shall elect from its membership a Chairperson, who shall
be a member other than NEP's member, and a Vice Chairperson and shall also
elect a Secretary who need not be a member of the Committee. They shall have
the powers and duties usually incident to such offices.
The Operating Committee shall hold its annual meeting in January or at a
special meeting called for such purpose in lieu thereof at such time and place
as the Chairperson shall designate and shall hold other meetings at the call
of the Chairperson. Any two or more members may call a meeting of the
Operating Committee in case the Chairperson shall fail to call a meeting upon
request. Normally, notices of meetings shall specify the subject matters to
be acted upon at the meeting and shall be made available to each member of the
Operating Committee at least five days prior to the date of the meeting.
However, in case of emergency, the Operating Committee may meet upon call of
any member in such manner as the Operating Committee shall determine.
Each member of the Operating Committee or his/her alternate shall have
the right to cast a number of votes equal to the Territorial KWH of its REMVEC
II Participant(s) during the preceding calendar year. The affirmative votes
of at least three members representing REMVEC II Participants who have at
least two-thirds (2/3) of the aggregate Territorial KWH of all Participants
during the preceding calendar year shall be required for the adoption of a
resolution which shall become binding upon the Participants; provided,
however, no single member shall be capable of defeating the adoption of a
resolution relating to any operational matter.
Any Participant may appeal to the Executive Committee any action taken
by the Operating Committee. Such an appeal shall be taken prior to the end of
the tenth business day following the meeting of the Operating Committee to
which the appeal relates by delivering to the Secretary of the Executive
Committee a signed and written notice of appeal and by mailing a copy of the
notice to each member of the Executive Committee. Pending a vote of the
Executive Committee affirming the action taken by the Operating Committee the
filing of a notice of appeal as aforesaid shall suspend the action appealed.
ARTICLE VIII. Duties and Authority of the Operating Committee
-----------------------------------------------
Subject to direction from the Executive Committee, and to the terms of
this Agreement, the Operating Committee shall be responsible for the day-to-
day oversight and administration of the SAS Agreement and of this Agreement in
such a manner as to achieve the objectives of REMVEC II as a satellite of
NEPEX. Each of the REMVEC II Participants agrees to comply with directions
from the Operating Committee in this regard, provided that such directions
conform to sound principles of utility operation and to provisions of
applicable laws and contracts. All disputes between NEP and a REMVEC II
Participant or Participants of a technical and/or operational nature relating
to the provision of service by NEP under the SAS Agreement shall be submitted
by NEP and/or the REMVEC II Participant or Participants to the Operating
Committee for resolution.
The Operating Committee shall have the authority to appoint task forces
for particular studies and shall name thereto available employees of REMVEC II
Participants. A REMVEC II Participant may be reimbursed for the time and
expenses of any of its employees engaged in such task force work in such
manner as is determined by the Executive Committee. Subject to direction from
the Executive Committee, the Operating Committee may delegate its specific
duties to subcommittees, task forces, and others.
The Operating Committee shall, to the extent appropriate to achieve the
objectives of REMVEC II, establish reasonable standards, criteria and rules
and operating procedures relating to protective equipment, metering,
telemetering, communications, switching, voltage control, load shedding,
operating and emergency procedures, and the operation and maintenance of the
facilities of the REMVEC II Participants. The Operating Committee shall be
responsible for the development of appropriate billing procedures in concert
with the billing agent (New England Power Service Company) for any
transactions pursuant to this Agreement.
Each REMVEC II Participant shall furnish to the Operating Committee such
data and information as the Operating Committee may reasonably expect for the
performance of its duties.
ARTICLE IX. Expenses of REMVEC II
---------------------
All expenses of REMVEC II authorized under this Agreement, other than
expenses incurred under the SAS Agreement, shall be paid by REMVEC II
Participants monthly to New England Power Service Company as billing agent,
upon receipt of bills, in proportion to their previous year's Territorial KWH
as compared to the aggregate of such Territorial KWH for all Participants.
All REMVEC II Participants agree that, as necessary, New England Power
Service Company will render a xxxx to each REMVEC II Participant on the first
working day of each month for all amounts payable by such REMVEC II
Participant hereunder with respect to the particular month, on an estimated
basis for that month to be adjusted to actual experience quarterly. All bills
shall be due when rendered except as specified below in this paragraph.
Unless New England Power Service Company and the REMVEC II Participant in
arrears agree otherwise, when all or part of any xxxx shall remain unpaid for
more than fifteen (15) days after the due date, interest at an annual rate of
2% above the lowest interest rate then being charged by the Bank of Boston, or
its successor, on 90 day commercial loans shall accrue to New England Power
Service Company from and after said due date and be payable to New England
Power Service Company on such unpaid amount, or in the event the amount of the
xxxx is disputed, on the amount finally determined to be due and payable. A
REMVEC II Participant may require New England Power Service Company to render
bills fifteen (15) days prior to said first working day. However such early
rendered bills shall not be deemed due until such first working day.
Whenever an additional entity which is a participant in NEPOOL becomes
or joins a REMVEC II Participant in REMVEC II pursuant to the provisions of
Article XII hereof, it shall pay a charge equal to the proportion of the
REMVEC II expenses, if any, unpaid by it which it would have incurred if it
had been a REMVEC II Participant during the period between the date it became
a NEPOOL participant, not subject to composite treatment under Section 3.3 of
the NEPOOL Agreement, and the date it actually becomes a REMVEC II Participant
hereunder. The payments received for such charge shall be credited and paid
to the REMVEC II Participants who incurred the corresponding charges.
ARTICLE X. Amendment
---------
This Agreement may be amended at any time upon the consent of all REMVEC
II Participants, or upon six months' notice sent to the Participants by the
Secretary of the Executive Committee following a duly approved resolution of
the Executive Committee. Further, this Agreement shall be amended at anytime
upon a determination by the Executive Committee, at a meeting called pursuant
to Article V and upon a duly approved resolution taken pursuant to Article V,
that such amendment is necessitated on account of REMVEC II operating as a
satellite of NEPEX or a successor organization. However, (i) no amendment is
to adversely affect any contractual arrangement entered into on account of the
establishment and operation of REMVEC II pursuant to this Agreement; and (ii)
without consent of all REMVEC II Participants, no amendment shall limit a
REMVEC II Participant's rights under Article III to terminate its
participation in REMVEC II or alter the provisions of the last paragraph of
Article III, above.
ARTICLE XI. Arbitration
-----------
In case any dispute shall arise as to the interpretation or the
performance of this Agreement which cannot be settled by the Executive
Committee, or in the case any dispute so settled by the Executive Committee is
considered by a REMVEC II Participant to work an undue hardship on it, such
dispute shall be submitted to arbitration by the request of the complaining
REMVEC II Participant. Copies of any such request shall be served on all
REMVEC II Participants and it shall specify the issue or issues in dispute and
summarize the REMVEC II Participant's claim with respect thereto. Within
thirty (30) days after receipt of such a request authorized representatives of
all REMVEC II Participants shall confer and attempt to agree upon appointment
of a single arbitrator. If such agreement is not accomplished, the
Chairperson of the Executive Committee shall request the American Arbitration
Association to appoint an arbitrator in accordance with its Commercial
Arbitration Rules, which rules shall govern the conduct of the arbitration in
the absence of contrary agreement by all REMVEC II Participants. The
arbitrator shall conduct a hearing at a place in Massachusetts of his/her
designation, and within thirty (30) days thereafter, unless such time is
extended by agreement of all REMVEC II Participants, shall notify the REMVEC
II Participants in writing of his/her decision, stating his/her reasons for
such decision and separately listing his/her findings of fact and conclusions
of law. The arbitrator shall not have power to amend or add to this Agreement
or, if involved, the SAS Agreement. Subject to such limitation, the decision
of the arbitrator shall be final and binding on all REMVEC II Participants
except that any REMVEC II Participant may petition to a court of competent
jurisdiction for review of any conclusions of law. The decision of the
arbitrator shall determine and specify how the expenses of the arbitration
shall be allocated among the REMVEC II Participants.
ARTICLE XII. Becoming a REMVEC II Participant
--------------------------------
Any Entity (as that term is defined in Section 15.14 of the NEPOOL
Agreement) which is engaged in the electric utility business within the
geographic area served as of June 30, 1994 through the REMVEC satellite
dispatching center, and which has become a Participant in NEPOOL in accordance
with the terms of the NEPOOL Agreement may, upon compliance with such
reasonable conditions as the Executive Committee shall prescribe, become a
REMVEC II Participant by depositing a counterpart of this Agreement, as
theretofore amended, duly executed by it, with the Secretary of the Executive
Committee, accompanied by a certified copy of a vote of its board of
directors, or such other body or bodies as may be appropriate, duly
authorizing its execution and performance of this Agreement, and a check in

Section 12 and other provisions of the NEPOOL Agreement;
and
(iv) if the entity has territorial load and/or owns or operates
generation and/or transmission facilities, become a
signatory to the SAS Agreement.
Any entity which satisfies these requirements shall become a REMVEC II
Participant, and this Agreement shall become fully binding and effective in
accordance with its terms as to such entity, as of the first day of the second
calendar month following its satisfaction of such requirements; provided that
an earlier or later effective time may be fixed by the Executive Committee
with the concurrence of such entity.
ARTICLE XIII. Miscellaneous
-------------
Without the consent of the Executive Committee, no REMVEC II Participant
may assign its interest under this Agreement except in connection with a
merger, consolidation or transfer of substantially all its assets.
The signatories hereto shall not become partners by reason of this
Agreement or their activities hereunder, but as to each other and to third
persons, they shall be and remain independent contractors in all matters
relating to this Agreement. This Agreement shall not be construed to create
any liability on the part of any signatory to anyone not a party to this
Agreement. Each signatory shall retain its separate identity and, to the
extent not limited hereby, its individual freedom in rendering service to its
customers.
All amendments to this Agreement shall be in writing signed by the duly
authorized representative(s) of the parties. This Agreement constitutes the
entire understanding of the parties and there are no representations,
understandings or agreements, oral or written, that are not included herein.
Should any provision of this Agreement be held invalid, such provision shall
be considered severable and such invalidity shall not affect the remainder of
