following (checked) type of Interconnection Service:

Check: __X__ER or _X___ NR

4.1.1
Energy Resource Interconnection Service (ER Interconnection Service).

4.1.1.1
The Product. ER Interconnection Service allows Interconnection Customer to
connect the Generating Facility to the Transmission or Distribution System, as
applicable, and be eligible to deliver the Generating Facility’s output using
the existing firm or non-firm capacity of the Transmission System on an “as
available” basis. To the extent Interconnection Customer wants to receive ER
Interconnection Service, the Transmission Owner shall construct facilities
consistent with the studies identified in Appendix A.

An Interconnection Customer seeking ER Interconnection Service for new or added
capacity at a Generating Facility may be granted conditional ER Interconnection
Service status to the extent there is such capacity available on the
Transmission System to accommodate the Interconnection Customer’s Generating
Facility. At the request of the Interconnection Customer, Conditional ER
Interconnection Service status may be granted subject to the system being able
to accommodate the interconnection without upgrades, until such time as a higher
queued project(s) with a later service date affecting the same common elements
is placed into service. The conditional ER Interconnection Service shall be
terminated in the event the Interconnection Customer fails to fund the necessary
studies and the Network Upgrades necessary to grant the Interconnection
Customer’s ER Interconnection Service upon the completion of higher queued
projects involving the same common elements.

4.1.1.2
Transmission Delivery Service Implications. Under ER Interconnection Service,
the Interconnection Customer will be eligible to inject power from the
Generating Facility into and deliver power across the Transmission System on an
“as available” basis up to the amount of MW identified in the applicable
stability and steady state studies to the extent the upgrades initially required
to qualify for ER Interconnection Service have been constructed. After that date
FERC makes effective the MISO’s Energy

Original Sheet No. 14

Market Tariff filed in Docket No. ER04‑691‑000, Interconnection Customer may
place a bid to sell into the market up to the maximum identified Generating
Facility output, subject to any conditions specified in the interconnection
service approval, and the Generating Facility will be dispatched to the extent
the Interconnection Customer’s bid clears. In all other instances, no
transmission or other delivery service from the Generating Facility is assured,
but the Interconnection Customer may obtain Point-To-Point Transmission Service,
Network Integration Transmission Service or be used for secondary network
transmission service, pursuant to the Tariff, up to the maximum output
identified in the stability and steady state studies. In those instances, in
order for the Interconnection Customer to obtain the right to deliver or inject
energy beyond the Point of Interconnection or to improve its ability to do so,
transmission delivery service must be obtained pursuant to the provisions of the
Tariff. The Interconnection Customer’s ability to inject its Generating Facility
output beyond the Point of Interconnection, therefore, will depend on the
existing capacity of the Transmission or Distribution System as applicable, at
such time as a transmission service request is made that would accommodate such
delivery. The provision of Firm Point‑To‑Point Transmission Service or Network
Integration Transmission Service may require the construction of additional
Network or Distribution Upgrades.

4.1.2
Network Resource Interconnection Service (NR Interconnection Service).

4.1.2.1
The Product. The Transmission Provider must conduct the necessary studies and
the Transmission Owner shall construct the facilities identified in Appendix A
of this LGIA, subject to the approval of Governmental Authorities, needed to
integrate the Generating Facility in the same manner as for any Large Generating
Facility being designated as a Network Resource.

4.1.2.2
Transmission Delivery Service Implications. NR Interconnection Service allows
the Generating Facility to be designated by any Network Customer under the
Tariff on the Transmission System as a Network Resource, up to the Generating
Facility's full output, on the same basis as existing Network Resources that are
interconnected to the Transmission or Distribution System, as applicable, and to
be studied as a Network Resource on the assumption that such a designation will
occur. Although NR Interconnection Service does not convey a reservation of
transmission service, any Network Customer can utilize network service under the
Tariff to obtain delivery of energy from the Generating Facility in the same
manner as it accesses Network Resources. A Generating Facility receiving NR
Interconnection Service may also be used to provide Ancillary Services after
technical studies and/or periodic analyses are performed with respect to the
Generating Facility’s ability to provide any applicable Ancillary Services,
provided that such studies and analyses have been or would be required in
connection with the provision of such Ancillary Services by any existing Network
Resource. However, if the

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Original Sheet No. 15

Generating Facility has not been designated as a Network Resource by any Network
Customer, it cannot be required to provide Ancillary Services except to the
extent such requirements extend to all generating facilities that are similarly
situated. The provision of Network Integration Transmission Service or Firm
Point-To-Point Transmission Service may require additional studies and the
construction of additional upgrades. Because such studies and upgrades would be
associated with a request for delivery service under the Tariff, cost
responsibility for the studies and upgrades would be in accordance with FERC’s
policy for pricing transmission delivery services.

NR Interconnection Service does not necessarily provide the Interconnection
Customer with the capability to physically deliver the output of its Generating
Facility to any particular load on the Transmission System without incurring
congestion costs. In the event of transmission or distribution constraints on
the Transmission or Distribution System, as applicable, the Generating Facility
shall be subject to the applicable congestion management procedures in the
Transmission System in the same manner as Network Resources.

There is no requirement either at the time of study or interconnection, or at
any point in the future, that the Generating Facility be designated as a Network
Resource by a Network Customer or that the Interconnection Customer identify a
specific buyer (or sink). To the extent a Network Customer does designate the
Generating Facility as a Network Resource, it must do so pursuant to the Tariff.

Once an Interconnection Customer satisfies the requirements for obtaining NR
Interconnection Service, any future transmission service request for delivery
from the Generating Facility within the Transmission System of any amount of
capacity and/or energy, up to the amount initially studied, will not require
that any additional studies be performed or that any further upgrades associated
with such Large Generating Facility be undertaken, regardless of whether such
Large Generating Facility is ever designated by a Network Customer as a Network
Resource and regardless of changes in ownership of the Generating Facility. To
the extent the Interconnection Customer enters into an arrangement for long term
transmission service for deliveries from the Generating Facility to customers
other than the studied Network Customers, or for any Point-To-Point Transmission
Service, such request may require additional studies and upgrades in order for
the Transmission Provider to grant such request. However, the reduction or
elimination of congestion or redispatch costs may require additional studies and
the construction of additional upgrades.

To the extent the Interconnection Customer enters into an arrangement for long
term transmission service for deliveries from the Generating Facility outside
the Transmission System, such request may require additional

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Original Sheet No. 16

studies and upgrades in order for the Transmission Provider to grant such
request.

4.1.2.3
Conditional NR Interconnection Service. An Interconnection Customer seeking NR
Interconnection Service for new or added capacity at a Generating Facility may
be granted conditional NR Interconnection Service status to the extent there is
such capacity available on the Transmission System to accommodate the
Interconnection Customer’s Generating Facility. At the request of the
Interconnection Customer, Conditional NR Interconnection Service status may be
granted subject to the system being able to accommodate the interconnection
without upgrades, until such time as higher queued project(s) with a later
service date affecting the same common elements is placed into service. The
conditional NR Interconnection Service status may be converted to ER
Interconnection Service if either of the following occurs:

1)
The Interconnection Customer fails to fund necessary studies and Network
Upgrades required to allow the Interconnection Customer’s Generating Facility to
receive NR Interconnection Service upon the completion of higher queued projects
involving the same common elements; or

2)
The higher queued project(s) or planned and required Network Upgrades are placed
in service and the Network Upgrades required to provide NR Interconnection
Service status to the Interconnection Customer’s Generating Facility are not in
service.

In the event the Interconnection Customer fails to fund the necessary studies
and Network Upgrades for NR Interconnection Service, the Interconnection
Customer’s conditional NR Interconnection Service status shall be converted to
ER Interconnection Service status unless the Interconnection Customer makes a
new Interconnection Request. Such new Interconnection Request shall be evaluated
in accordance with the LGIP and its new queue position priority.

Some or all of the conditional NR Interconnection Service status may be
temporarily revoked if the Network Upgrades are not in service when the higher
queued project(s) are placed in service. The availability of conditional NR
Interconnection Service status will be determined by Transmission Provider’s
studies. Upon funding and completion of the Network Upgrades required to
establish the Generating Facility’s NR Interconnection Service status, the
Generating Facility will be granted NR Interconnection Service status.

The Parties agree that the portion of the Generating Facility classified as NR
Interconnection Service is the first portion of the output of the combined
output of all the units at the Generating Facility except in circumstances where
the Interconnection Customer otherwise elects in the Agreement, as amended, to
allocate that portion to the output of specific unit(s) at the Generating
Facility, the total of which will not exceed

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Original Sheet No. 17

the output eligible for NR Interconnection Service as shown by the additional
studies. To the extent Interconnection Customer desires to obtain NR
Interconnection Service for any portion of the Generating Facility in addition
to that supported by such additional studies, the Interconnection Customer will
be required to request such additional NR Interconnection Service through a
separate Interconnection Request in accordance with the LGIP.

4.2
Provision of Service. Transmission Provider shall provide Interconnection
Service for the Generating Facility at the Point of Interconnection.

4.3
Performance Standards. Each Party shall perform all of its obligations under
this LGIA in accordance with Applicable Laws and Regulations, Applicable
Reliability Standards, and Good Utility Practice. To the extent a Party is
required or prevented or limited in taking any action by such regulations and
standards, or if the obligations of any Party may become limited by a change in
Applicable Laws and Regulations, Applicable Reliability Standards, and Good
Utility Practice after the execution of this LGIA, that Party shall not be
deemed to be in Breach of this LGIA for its compliance therewith. The Party so
limited shall notify the other Parties whereupon the Transmission Provider shall
amend this LGIA in concurrence with the other Parties and submit the amendment
to the Commission for approval.

4.4
No Transmission Delivery Service. The execution of this LGIA does not constitute
a request for, nor the provision of, any transmission delivery service under the
Tariff, and does not convey any right to deliver electricity to any specific
customer or Point of Delivery.

4.5
Interconnection Customer Provided Services. The services provided by
Interconnection Customer under this LGIA are set forth in Article 9.6 and
Article 13.5.1. Interconnection Customer shall be paid for such services in
accordance with Article 11.6.

ARTICLE 5. INTERCONNECTION FACILITIES ENGINEERING, PROCUREMENT, AND CONSTRUCTION

procure, and construct. The foregoing payments will be made by the Transmission
Owner to the Interconnection Customer as just compensation for the damages
caused to the Interconnection Customer, which actual damages are uncertain and
impossible to determine at this time, and as reasonable liquidated damages, but
not as a penalty or a method to secure performance of this LGIA. Liquidated
damages, when the Parties agree to them, are the exclusive remedy for the
Transmission Owner’s failure to meet its schedule.

No liquidated damages shall be paid to Interconnection Customer if: (1)
Interconnection Customer is not ready to commence use of the Transmission
Owner’s Interconnection Facilities or Network Upgrades to take the delivery of
power for the Generating Facility's Trial Operation or to export power from the
Generating Facility on the specified dates, unless the Interconnection Customer
would have been able to commence use of the Transmission Owner’s Interconnection
Facilities or Network Upgrades to take the delivery of power for Generating
Facility's Trial Operation or to export power from the Generating Facility, but
for Transmission Owner’s delay; (2) the Transmission Owner’s failure to meet the
specified dates is the result of the action or inaction of the Transmission
Provider, the Interconnection Customer or any other earlier queued
Interconnection Customer who has entered into an earlier LGIA with the
Transmission Provider and/or a Transmission Owner or with an Affected System
Operator, or any cause beyond Transmission Owner’s

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Original Sheet No. 22

reasonable control or reasonable ability to cure; (3) the Interconnection
Customer has assumed responsibility for the design, procurement and construction
of the Transmission Owner’s Interconnection Facilities and Stand Alone Network
Upgrades; (4) the delay is due to the inability of the Transmission Owner to
obtain all required approvals from Governmental Authorities in a timely manner
for the construction of any element of the Interconnection Facilities, Network
Upgrades or Stand Alone Network Upgrades, or any other permit or authorization
required, or any land rights or other private authorizations that may be
required, and Transmission Owner has exercised Reasonable Efforts in procuring
such approvals, permits, rights or authorizations; or (5) the Parties have
otherwise agreed.

5.4
Power System Stabilizers. The Interconnection Customer shall procure, install,
maintain and operate power system stabilizers in accordance with the guidelines
and procedures established by the Applicable Reliability Council. Transmission
Provider and Transmission Owner reserve the right to reasonably establish
minimum acceptable settings for any installed power system stabilizers, subject
to the design and operating limitations of the Generating Facility. If the
Generating Facility’s power system stabilizers are removed from service or are
not capable of automatic operation, the Interconnection Customer shall

other and Transmission Provider advised periodically as to the progress of their
respective design, procurement, and construction efforts. Either Transmission
Owner or Interconnection Customer may, at any time, request a progress report
from the other, with a copy to be provided to the other Parties. If, at any
time, the Interconnection Customer determines that the completion of the
Transmission Owner’s Interconnection Facilities, Network Upgrades, or
Transmission Owner’s System Protection Facilities will not be required until
after the specified In-Service Date, the Interconnection Customer will provide
written notice to the Transmission Provider and Transmission Owner of such later
date upon which the completion of the Transmission Owner’s Interconnection
Facilities, Network Upgrades, or Transmission Owner’s System Protection
Facilities will be required. The Transmission Owner may delay the In-Service
Date of its facilities accordingly.

5.8

another Interconnection Customer, but where such construction is not scheduled
to be completed in time to achieve Interconnection Customer's In-Service Date.
Any such Network Upgrades, System Protection Facilities or Distribution Upgrades
are included in the facilities to be constructed and as set forth in Appendix A
to this LGIA.

5.16
Suspension.

5.16.1
Interconnection Customer’s Right to Suspend; Obligations. Provided that such
suspension is permissible under the authorizations, permits or approvals granted
for the construction of such Interconnection Facilities, Network Upgrades or
Stand Alone Network Upgrades, Interconnection Customer reserves the right upon
written notice to Transmission Provider and Transmission Owner, to suspend at
any time all work by Transmission Owner associated with the construction and
installation of Transmission Owner's Interconnection Facilities, Network
Upgrades, Transmission Owner’s System Protection Facilities, Distribution
Upgrades and/or Generator Upgrades required under this LGIA with the condition
that the Transmission or Distribution System, as applicable, shall be left in a
safe and reliable condition in accordance with Good Utility Practice and the
Transmission Provider’s and Transmission Owner‘s safety and reliability
criteria. In such event, Interconnection Customer shall be responsible for all
reasonable and necessary costs which Transmission Provider and Transmission
Owner (i) have incurred pursuant to this LGIA prior to the suspension and (ii)
incur in suspending such work, including any costs incurred to perform such work
as may be necessary to ensure the safety of persons and property and the
integrity of the Transmission or Distribution System, as applicable, during such
suspension and, if applicable, any costs incurred in connection with the
cancellation or suspension of material, equipment and labor contracts which
Transmission Provider and Transmission Owner cannot reasonably avoid; provided,
however, that prior to canceling or suspending any such material, equipment or
labor contract, Transmission Provider and Transmission Owner shall obtain
Interconnection Customer's authorization to do so.

Transmission Provider and Transmission Owner shall each invoice Interconnection
Customer for such costs pursuant to Article 12 and shall use Reasonable Efforts
to minimize its costs. In the event Interconnection Customer suspends work by
Transmission Owner required under this LGIA pursuant to this Article 5.16, and
has not requested Transmission Owner to recommence the work required under this
LGIA on or before the expiration of three (3) years following commencement of
such suspension, this LGIA shall be deemed terminated. The three-year period
shall begin on the date the suspension is requested, or the date of the written
notice to Transmission Provider, if no effective date is specified.

5.16.2
Effect of Missed Interconnection Customer Milestones. If Interconnection
Customer fails to provide notice of suspension pursuant to Article

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Original Sheet No. 27

5.16, and Interconnection Customer fails to fulfill or complete any
Interconnection Customer Milestone provided in Appendix B (“Milestone”), this
constitutes a Breach under this LGIA. Depending upon the consequences of the
Breach and effectiveness of the cure pursuant to Article 17, the Transmission
Owners’ Milestones may be revised, following consultation with the
Interconnection Customer, consistent with Reasonable Efforts, and in
consideration of all relevant circumstances. Parties shall employ Reasonable
Efforts to maintain their remaining respective Milestones.

5.16.3
Effect of Suspension; Parties Obligations. In the event that Interconnection
Customer suspends work pursuant to this Article 5.16, all construction duration,
timelines and schedules set forth in Appendix B shall be suspended during the
period of suspension. Should Interconnection Customer request that work be
recommenced, Transmission Owner shall be obligated to proceed with Reasonable
Efforts and in consideration of all relevant circumstances including regional
outage schedules, construction availability and material procurement in
performing the work as described in Appendix A and Appendix B. Transmission
Owner will provide Interconnection Customer with a revised schedule for the
design, procurement, construction, installation and testing of the Transmission
Owner’s Interconnection Facilities and Network Upgrades. Upon any suspension by
Interconnection Customer pursuant to Article 5.16, Interconnection Customer
shall be responsible for only those costs specified in this Article 5.16.

5.17    Taxes.

5.17.1
Interconnection Customer Payments Not Taxable. The Parties intend that all
payments or property transfers made by Interconnection Customer to Transmission
Owner for the installation of the Transmission Owner’s Interconnection
Facilities, Network Upgrades, Transmission Owner’s System Protection Facilities,
Distribution Upgrades and Generator Upgrades shall be non-taxable, either as
contributions to capital, or as an advance, in accordance with the Internal
Revenue Code and any applicable state income tax laws and shall not be taxable
as contributions in aid of construction or otherwise under the Internal Revenue
Code and any applicable state income tax laws.

5.17.2
Representations and Covenants. In accordance with IRS Notice 2001-82 and IRS
Notice 88-129, Interconnection Customer represents and covenants that
(i) ownership of the electricity generated at the Generating Facility will pass
to another party prior to the transmission of the electricity on the
Transmission System, (ii) for income tax purposes, the amount of any payments
and the cost of any property transferred to the Transmission Owner for the
Transmission Owner’s Interconnection Facilities will be capitalized by
Interconnection Customer as an intangible asset and recovered using the
straight-line method over a useful life of twenty (20) years, and (iii) any
portion of the Transmission Owner's Interconnection Facilities that is a
“dual-use intertie,” within the meaning of IRS Notice 88-129, is reasonably
expected to carry only a de minimis amount of electricity in the direction of
the Generating Facility. For this purpose, “de minimis amount” means no more
than 5 percent of the total power flows in both directions,

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Original Sheet No. 28

calculated in accordance with the “5 percent test” set forth in IRS Notice
88-129. This is not intended to be an exclusive list of the relevant conditions
that must be met to conform to IRS requirements for non-taxable treatment.

At Transmission Owner’s request, Interconnection Customer shall provide
Transmission Owner with a report from an independent engineer confirming its
representation in clause (iii), above, with a copy to Transmission Provider.
Transmission Owner represents and covenants that the cost of the Transmission
Owner’s Interconnection Facilities paid for by Interconnection Customer will
have no net effect on the base upon which rates are determined.

5.17.3
Indemnification for the Cost Consequences of Current Tax Liability Upon
Transmission Owner. Notwithstanding Article 5.17.1, Interconnection Customer
shall protect, indemnify and hold harmless Transmission Owner from the cost
consequences of any tax liability imposed against Transmission Owner as the
result of payments or property transfers made by Interconnection Customer to
Transmission Owner under this LGIA for Interconnection Facilities, as well as
any interest and penalties, other than interest and penalties attributable to
any delay caused by Transmission Owner.

Transmission Owner shall not include a gross-up for the cost consequences of any
current tax liability in the amounts it charges Interconnection Customer under
this LGIA unless (i) Transmission Owner has determined, in good faith, that the
payments or property transfers made by Interconnection Customer to Transmission
Owner should be reported as income subject to taxation or (ii) any Governmental
Authority directs Transmission Owner to report payments or property as income
subject to taxation; provided, however, that Transmission Owner may require
Interconnection Customer to provide security for Interconnection Facilities, in
a form reasonably acceptable to Transmission Owner (such as a parental guarantee
or a letter of credit), in an amount equal to the cost consequences or any
current tax liability under this Article 5.17. Interconnection Customer shall
reimburse Transmission Owner for such costs on a fully grossed-up basis, in
accordance with Article 5.17.4, within thirty (30) Calendar Days of receiving
written notification from Transmission Owner of the amount due, including detail
about how the amount was calculated.

The indemnification obligation shall terminate at the earlier of (1) the
expiration of the ten-year testing period and the applicable statute of
limitation, as it may be extended by the Transmission Owner upon request of the
IRS, to keep these years open for audit or adjustment, or (2) the occurrence of
a subsequent taxable event and the payment of any related indemnification
obligations as contemplated by this Article 5.17.

5.17.4
Tax Gross-Up Amount. Interconnection Customer's liability for the cost
consequences of any current tax liability under this Article 5.17 shall be
calculated on a fully grossed-up basis. Except as may otherwise be agreed to by
the parties, this means that Interconnection Customer will pay Transmission
Owner, in addition to the amount paid for the Interconnection Facilities,
Network Upgrades, Transmission Owner’s System Protection Facilities, and/or
Distribution Upgrades, an amount equal to (1) the current taxes imposed on

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Original Sheet No. 29

Transmission Owner (“Current Taxes”) on the excess of (a) the gross income
realized by Transmission Owner as a result of payments or property transfers
made by Interconnection Customer to Transmission Owner under this LGIA (without
regard to any payments under this Article 5.17) (the “Gross Income Amount”) over
(b) the present value of future tax deductions for depreciation that will be
available as a result of such payments or property transfers (the “Present Value
Depreciation Amount”), plus (2) an additional amount sufficient to permit the
Transmission Owner to receive and retain, after the payment of all Current
Taxes, an amount equal to the net amount described in clause (1).

For this purpose, (i) Current Taxes shall be computed based on Transmission
Owner’s composite federal and state tax rates at the time the payments or
property transfers are received and Transmission Owner will be treated as being
subject to tax at the highest marginal rates in effect at that time (the
“Current Tax Rate”), and (ii) the Present Value Depreciation Amount shall be
computed by discounting Transmission Owner’s anticipated tax depreciation
deductions as a result of such payments or property transfers by Transmission
Owner’s current weighted average cost of capital. Thus, the formula for
calculating Interconnection Customer's liability to Transmission Owner pursuant
to this Article 5.17.4 can be expressed as follows: (Current Tax Rate x (Gross
Income Amount - Present Value of Tax Depreciation))/(1-Current Tax Rate).
Interconnection Customer's estimated tax liability in the event taxes are
imposed shall be stated in Appendix A, Interconnection Facilities, Network
Upgrades and Distribution Upgrades.

5.17.5
Private Letter Ruling or Change or Clarification of Law. At Interconnection
Customer's request and expense, Transmission Owner shall file with the IRS a
request for a private letter ruling as to whether any property transferred or
sums paid, or to be paid, by Interconnection Customer to Transmission Owner
under this LGIA are subject to federal income taxation. Interconnection Customer
will prepare the initial draft of the request for a private letter ruling, and
will certify under penalties of perjury that all facts represented in such
request are true and accurate to the best of Interconnection Customer's
knowledge. Transmission Owner and Interconnection Customer shall cooperate in
good faith with respect to the submission of such request.

Transmission Owner shall keep Interconnection Customer fully informed of the
status of such request for a private letter ruling and shall execute either a
privacy act waiver or a limited power of attorney, in a form acceptable to the
IRS, that authorizes Interconnection Customer to participate in all discussions
with the IRS regarding such request for a private letter ruling. Transmission
Owner shall allow Interconnection Customer to attend all meetings with IRS
officials about the request and shall permit Interconnection Customer to prepare
the initial drafts of any follow-up letters in connection with the request.

5.17.6
Subsequent Taxable Events. If, within 10 years from the date on which the
relevant Transmission Owner’s Interconnection Facilities are placed in service,
(i) Interconnection Customer Breaches the covenant contained in Article 5.17.2,
(ii) a "disqualification event" occurs within the meaning of IRS Notice 88-129,
or (iii)

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Original Sheet No. 30

this LGIA terminates and Transmission Owner retains ownership of the
Interconnection Facilities, Network Upgrades, Transmission Owner’s System
Protection Facilities, and/or Distribution Upgrades, the Interconnection
Customer shall pay a tax gross-up for the cost consequences of any current tax
liability imposed on Transmission Owner, calculated using the methodology
described in Article 5.17.4 and in accordance with IRS Notice 90‑60.

5.17.7
Contests. In the event any Governmental Authority determines that Transmission
Owner’s receipt of payments or property constitutes income that is subject to
taxation, Transmission Owner shall notify Interconnection Customer, in writing,
within thirty (30) Calendar Days of receiving notification of such determination
by a Governmental Authority. Upon the timely written request by Interconnection
Customer and at Interconnection Customer's sole expense, Transmission Owner may
appeal, protest, seek abatement of, or otherwise oppose such determination. Upon
Interconnection Customer's written request and sole expense, Transmission Owner
shall file a claim for refund with respect to any taxes paid under this Article
5.17, whether or not it has received such a determination. Transmission Owner
reserves the right to make all decisions with regard to the prosecution of such
appeal, protest, abatement or other contest, including the selection of counsel
and compromise or settlement of the claim, but Transmission Owner shall keep
Interconnection Customer informed, shall consider in good faith suggestions from
Interconnection Customer about the conduct of the contest, and shall reasonably
permit Interconnection Customer or an Interconnection Customer representative to
attend contest proceedings.

Interconnection Customer shall pay to Transmission Owner on a periodic basis, as
invoiced by Transmission Owner, Transmission Owner’s documented reasonable costs
of prosecuting such appeal, protest, abatement or other contest. At any time
during the contest, Transmission Owner may agree to a settlement either with
Interconnection Customer's consent or after obtaining written advice from
nationally-recognized tax counsel, selected by Transmission Owner, but
reasonably acceptable to Interconnection Customer, that the proposed settlement
represents a reasonable settlement given the hazards of litigation.
Interconnection Customer's obligation shall be based on the amount of the
settlement agreed to by Interconnection Customer, or if a higher amount, so much
of the settlement that is supported by the written advice from
nationally-recognized tax counsel selected under the terms of the preceding
sentence. The settlement amount shall be calculated on a fully grossed-up basis
to cover any related cost consequences of the current tax liability. Any
settlement without Interconnection Customer's consent or such written advice
will relieve Interconnection Customer from any obligation to indemnify
Transmission Owner for the tax at issue in the contest.

5.17.8
Refund. In the event that (a) a private letter ruling is issued to Transmission
Owner which holds that any amount paid or the value of any property transferred
by Interconnection Customer to Transmission Owner under the terms of this LGIA
is not subject to federal income taxation, (b) any legislative change or
administrative announcement, notice, ruling or other determination makes it
reasonably clear to Transmission Owner in good faith that any amount paid or

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Original Sheet No. 31

the value of any property transferred by Interconnection Customer to
Transmission Owner under the terms of this LGIA is not taxable to Transmission
Owner, (c) any abatement, appeal, protest, or other contest results in a
determination that any payments or transfers made by Interconnection Customer to
Transmission Owner are not subject to federal income tax, or (d) if Transmission
Owner receives a refund from any taxing authority for any overpayment of tax
attributable to any payment or property transfer made by Interconnection
Customer to Transmission Owner pursuant to this LGIA, Transmission Owner shall
promptly refund to Interconnection Customer the following:

(i) any payment made by Interconnection Customer under this Article 5.17 for
taxes that is attributable to the amount determined to be non-taxable, together
with interest thereon,

(ii) interest on any amounts paid by Interconnection Customer to Transmission
Owner for such taxes which Transmission Owner did not submit to the taxing
authority, calculated in accordance with the methodology set forth in 18 C.F.R.
Section 35.19a(a)(2)(iii) from the date payment was made by Interconnection
Customer to the date Transmission Owner refunds such payment to Interconnection
Customer, and

(iii) with respect to any such taxes paid by Transmission Owner, any refund or
credit Transmission Owner receives or to which it may be entitled from any
Governmental Authority, interest (or that portion thereof attributable to the
payment described in clause (i), above) owed to the Transmission Owner for such
overpayment of taxes (including any reduction in interest otherwise payable by
Transmission Owner to any Governmental Authority resulting from an offset or
credit); provided, however, that Transmission Owner will remit such amount
promptly to Interconnection Customer only after and to the extent that
Transmission Owner has received a tax refund, credit or offset from any
Governmental Authority for any applicable overpayment of income tax related to
the Transmission Owner’s Interconnection Facilities. The intent of this
provision is to leave both parties, to the extent practicable, in the event that
no taxes are due with respect to any payment for Interconnection Facilities and
Network Upgrades hereunder, in the same position they would have been in had no
such tax payments been made.

5.17.9
Taxes Other Than Income Taxes. Upon the timely request by Interconnection
Customer, and at Interconnection Customer’s sole expense, Transmission Owner
shall appeal, protest, seek abatement of, or otherwise contest any tax (other
than federal or state income tax) asserted or assessed against Transmission
Owner for which Interconnection Customer may be required to reimburse
Transmission Owner under the terms of this LGIA. Interconnection Customer shall
pay to Transmission Owner on a periodic basis, as invoiced by Transmission
Owner, Transmission Owner’s documented reasonable costs of prosecuting such
appeal, protest, abatement, or other contest. Interconnection Customer and
Transmission Owner shall cooperate in good faith with respect to

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Original Sheet No. 32

any such contest. Unless the payment of such taxes is a prerequisite to an
appeal or abatement or cannot be deferred, no amount shall be payable by
Interconnection Customer to Transmission Owner for such taxes until they are
assessed by a final, non-appealable order by any court or agency of competent
jurisdiction. In the event that a tax payment is withheld and ultimately due and
payable after appeal, Interconnection Customer will be responsible for all
taxes, interest and penalties, other than penalties attributable to any delay
caused by Transmission Owner.

5.18
Tax Status. Each Party shall cooperate with the other Parties to maintain each
Party’s tax status. Nothing in this LGIA is intended to adversely affect any
Party’s tax-exempt status with respect to the issuance of bonds including, but
not limited to, Local Furnishing Bonds.

5.19
Modification.

5.19.1
General. Either Party may undertake modifications to its facilities. If a Party
plans to undertake a modification that reasonably may be expected to affect
another Party's facilities, that Party shall provide to the other Parties
sufficient information regarding such modification so that the other Parties may
evaluate the potential impact of such modification prior to commencement of the
work. Such information shall be deemed to be Confidential Information hereunder
and shall include information concerning the timing of such modifications and
whether such modifications are expected to interrupt the flow of electricity
from the Generating Facility. The Party desiring to perform such work shall
provide the relevant drawings, plans, and specifications to the other Parties at
least ninety (90) Calendar Days in advance of the commencement of the work or
such shorter period upon which the Parties may agree, which agreement shall not
unreasonably be withheld, conditioned or delayed.

In the case of Generating Facility modifications that do not require
Interconnection Customer to submit an Interconnection Request, Transmission

power and reactive power output within the manufacturer’s design limitations of
the Generating Facility's equipment that is in service and physically available
for operation at the time, in compliance with Applicable Laws and Regulations.

13.4.2
Reduction and Disconnection. Transmission Provider or Transmission Owner may
reduce Interconnection Service or disconnect the Generating Facility or the

Interconnection Customer’s Interconnection Facilities when such reduction or
disconnection is necessary under Good Utility Practice due to Emergency
Conditions. These rights are separate and distinct from any right of curtailment
of the Transmission Provider pursuant to the Tariff. When the Transmission
Provider can schedule the reduction or disconnection in advance, Transmission
Provider shall notify Interconnection Customer of the reasons, timing and
expected duration of the reduction or disconnection. Transmission Provider shall
coordinate with the Interconnection Customer and Transmission Owner using Good
Utility Practice to schedule the reduction or disconnection during periods of
least impact to the Interconnection Customer, Transmission Owner and the
Transmission Provider. Any reduction or disconnection shall continue only for so
long as reasonably necessary under Good Utility Practice. The Parties shall
cooperate with each other to restore the Generating Facility, the
Interconnection Facilities, and the Transmission System to their normal
operating state as soon as practicable consistent with Good Utility Practice.

Transmission Owner’s Interconnection Facilities. Transmission Provider and
Transmission Owner shall use Reasonable Efforts to assist Interconnection
Customer in such actions.

Default

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Original Sheet No. 52

17.1.1
General. No Default shall exist where such failure to discharge an obligation

INSURANCE

18.1
Limitation of Liability. A Party shall not be liable to another Party or to any
third party or other person for any damages arising out of actions under this
LGIA, including, but not limited to, any act or omission that results in an
interruption, deficiency or imperfection of Interconnection Service, except as
provided in this Tariff. The provisions set forth in the Tariff shall be
additionally applicable to any Party acting in good faith to implement or comply
with its obligations under this LGIA, regardless of whether the obligation is
preceded by a specific directive.

the other Parties harmless from Loss.

18.2.1
Indemnified Party. If an Indemnified Party is entitled to indemnification under
this Article 18 as a result of a claim by a non-party, and the Indemnifying
Party fails, after notice and reasonable opportunity to proceed under

the expense of the Indemnifying Party contest, settle or consent to the entry of
any judgment with respect to, or pay in full, such claim.

18.2.2
Indemnifying Party. If an Indemnifying Party is obligated to indemnify and hold
any Indemnified Party harmless under this Article 18, the amount owing to the
Indemnified Party shall be the amount of such Indemnified Party's actual Loss,
net of any insurance or other recovery.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Original Sheet No. 53

18.2.3
Indemnity Procedures. Promptly after receipt by an Indemnified Party of any
claim or notice of the commencement of any action or administrative or legal
proceeding or investigation as to which the indemnity provided for in
Article 18.2 may apply, the Indemnified Party shall notify the Indemnifying
Party of such fact. Any failure of or delay in such notification shall not
affect a Party's indemnification obligation unless such failure or delay is
materially prejudicial to the Indemnifying Party.

The Indemnifying Party shall have the right to assume the defense thereof with
counsel designated by such Indemnifying Party and reasonably satisfactory to the
Indemnified Party. If the defendants in any such action include one or more
Indemnified Parties and the Indemnifying Party and if the Indemnified Party
reasonably concludes that there may be legal defenses available to it and/or
other Indemnified Parties which are different from or additional to those
available to the Indemnifying Party, the Indemnified Party shall have the right
to select separate counsel to assert such legal defenses and to otherwise
participate in the defense of such action on its own behalf. In such instances,
the Indemnifying Party shall only be required to pay the fees and expenses of
one additional attorney to represent an Indemnified Party or Indemnified Parties
having such differing or additional legal defenses.

The Indemnified Party shall be entitled, at its expense, to participate in any
such action, suit or proceeding, the defense of which has been assumed by the
Indemnifying Party. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Indemnifying Party
(i) shall not be entitled to assume and control the defense of any such action,
suit or proceedings if and to the extent that, in the opinion of the Indemnified
Party and its counsel, such action, suit or proceeding involves the potential
imposition of criminal liability on the Indemnified Party, or there exists a
conflict or adversity of interest between the Indemnified Party and the
Indemnifying Party, in such event the Indemnifying Party shall pay the
reasonable expenses of the Indemnified Party, and (ii) shall not settle or
consent to the entry of any judgment in any action, suit or proceeding without
the consent of the Indemnified Party, which shall not be reasonably withheld,
conditioned or delayed.

18.3
Consequential Damages. Other than the Liquidated Damages heretofore described,
in no event shall either Party be liable under any provision of this LGIA for
any losses, damages, costs, or expenses for any special, indirect, incidental,
consequential, or punitive damages including, but not limited to, loss of profit
or revenue, loss of the use of equipment, cost of capital, cost of temporary
equipment or services, whether based in whole or in part in contract, in tort,
including negligence, strict liability, or any other theory of liability;
provided; however, that damages for which a Party may be liable to the other
Party under another agreement will not be considered to be special, indirect,
incidental, or consequential damages hereunder.

the period of this LGIA, and until released by the other Parties, the following
minimum insurance coverages, with insurers authorized to do business or an

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Original Sheet No. 55

18.4.8
The requirements contained herein as to the types and limits of all insurance to
be maintained by the Parties are not intended to and shall not in any manner,
limit or qualify the liabilities and obligations assumed by the Parties under
this LGIA.

18.4.9
Within ten (10) days following execution of this LGIA, and as soon as
practicable after the end of each fiscal year or at the renewal of the insurance
policy and in any event within ninety (90) days thereafter, each Party shall
provide certification of all insurance required in this LGIA, executed by each
insurer or by an authorized representative of each insurer.

18.4.10

insurance requirements of Articles 18.4.1 through 18.4.8, to the extent it
maintains a self-insurance program; provided that, such Party’s senior secured
debt is rated at investment grade, or better, by Standard & Poor’s and that its
self‑insurance program meets minimum insurance requirements under
Articles 18.4.1 through 18.4.8. For any period of time that a Party’s senior
secured debt is unrated by Standard & Poor’s or is rated at less than investment
grade by Standard & Poor’s, such Party shall comply with the insurance
requirements applicable to it under Articles 18.4.1 through 18.4.9. In the event
that a Party is permitted to self-insure pursuant to this article, it shall
notify the other Party that it meets the requirements to self‑insure and that
its self‑insurance program meets the minimum insurance requirements in a manner
consistent with that specified in Article 18.4.9.

18.4.11
The Parties agree to report to each other in writing as soon as practical all
accidents or occurrences resulting in injuries to any person, including death,
and any property damage arising out of this LGIA.

ARTICLE 19. ASSIGNMENT

19.1
Assignment. This LGIA may be assigned by any Party only with the written consent
of the other Parties; provided that a Party may assign this LGIA without the
consent of the other Parties to any Affiliate of the assigning Party with an
equal or greater credit rating and with the legal authority and operational
ability to satisfy the obligations of the assigning Party under this LGIA; and
provided further that the Interconnection Customer shall have the right to
assign this LGIA, without the consent of either the Transmission Provider or
Transmission Owner, for collateral security purposes to aid in providing
financing for the Generating Facility, provided that the Interconnection
Customer will promptly notify the Transmission Provider of any such assignment.
Any financing arrangement entered into by the Interconnection Customer pursuant
to this Article will provide that prior to or upon the exercise of the secured
party’s , trustee’s or mortgagee’s assignment rights pursuant to said
arrangement, the secured creditor, the trustee or mortgagee will notify the
Transmission Provider of the date and particulars of any such exercise of
assignment right(s), including providing the Transmission Provider and
Transmission Owner with proof that it meets the requirements of Article 11.5 and
18.3. Any attempted assignment that violates this Article is void and
ineffective. Any assignment under this LGIA shall not relieve a Party of its
obligations, nor shall a Party’s

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Original Sheet No. 56

obligations be enlarged, in whole or in part, by reason thereof. Where required,
consent to assignment will not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed.

ARTICLE 20. SEVERABILITY

20.1
Severability. If any provision in this LGIA is finally determined to be invalid,
void or unenforceable by any court or other Governmental Authority having
jurisdiction, such determination shall not invalidate, void or make
unenforceable any other provision, agreement or covenant of this LGIA; provided
that if the Interconnection Customer (or any non-party, but only if such
non-party is not acting at the direction of either the Transmission Provider or
Transmission Owner) seeks and obtains such a final determination with respect to
any provision of the Alternate Option (Article 5.1.2), or the Negotiated Option
(Article 5.1.4), then none of these provisions shall thereafter have any force
or effect and the Parties’ rights and obligations shall be governed solely by
the Standard Option (Article 5.1.1).

ARTICLE 21. COMPARABILITY

21.1
Comparability. The Parties will comply with all applicable comparability and
code of conduct laws, rules and regulations including such laws, rules and

22.1
Confidentiality. Confidential Information shall include, without limitation, all
information relating to a Party’s technology, research and development, business
affairs, and pricing, and any information supplied by a Party to another Party
prior to the execution of this LGIA.

Information is Confidential Information only if it is clearly designated or
marked in writing as confidential on the face of the document, or, if the
information is conveyed orally or by inspection, if the Party providing the
information orally informs the Party receiving the information that the
information is confidential. The Parties shall maintain as confidential any
information that is provided and identified by a Party as Critical Energy
Infrastructure Information (CEII), as that term is defined in 18 C.F.R.
Section 388.113(c). Such confidentiality will be maintained in accordance with
this Article 22.

If requested by the receiving Party, the disclosing Party shall provide in
writing, the basis for asserting that the information referred to in this
Article warrants confidential treatment, and the requesting Party may disclose
such writing to the appropriate Governmental Authority. Each Party shall be
responsible for the costs associated with affording confidential treatment to
its information.

22.1.1
Term. During the term of this LGIA, and for a period of three (3) years after
the expiration or termination of this LGIA, except as otherwise provided in this
Article

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Original Sheet No. 57

22, each Party shall hold in confidence and shall not disclose to any person
Confidential Information.

22.1.2
Scope. Confidential Information shall not include information that the receiving
Party can demonstrate: (1) is generally available to the public other than as a
result of a disclosure by the receiving Party; (2) was in the lawful possession
of the receiving Party on a non‑confidential basis before receiving it from the
disclosing Party; (3) was supplied to the receiving Party without restriction by
a non-party, who, to the knowledge of the receiving Party after due inquiry, was
under no obligation to the disclosing Party to keep such information
confidential; (4) was independently developed by the receiving Party without
reference to Confidential Information of the disclosing Party; (5) is, or
becomes, publicly known, through no wrongful act or omission of the receiving
Party or Breach of this LGIA; or (6) is required, in accordance with
Article 22.1.7 of this LGIA, Order of Disclosure, to be disclosed by any
Governmental Authority or is otherwise required to be disclosed by law or
subpoena, or is necessary in any legal proceeding establishing rights and
obligations under this LGIA. Information designated as Confidential Information
will no longer be deemed confidential if the Party that designated the
information as confidential notifies the receiving Party that it no longer is
confidential.

22.1.3
Release of Confidential Information. No Party shall release or disclose
Confidential Information to any other person, except to its Affiliates (limited
by the Standards of Conduct requirements), subcontractors, employees, agents,
consultants, or to non-parties who may be or considering providing financing to
or equity participation with Interconnection Customer, or to potential
purchasers or assignees of Interconnection Customer, on a need‑to‑know basis in
connection with this LGIA, unless such person has first been advised of the
confidentiality provisions of this Article 22 and has agreed to comply with such
provisions. Notwithstanding the foregoing, a Party providing Confidential
Information to any person shall remain primarily responsible for any release of
Confidential Information in contravention of this Article 22.

22.1.4
Rights. Each Party retains all rights, title, and interest in the Confidential
Information that it discloses to the receiving Party. The disclosure by a Party
to the receiving Party of Confidential Information shall not be deemed a waiver
by the disclosing Party or any other person or entity of the right to protect
the Confidential Information from public disclosure.

22.1.5
No Warranties. By providing Confidential Information, no Party makes any
warranties or representations as to its accuracy or completeness. In addition,
by supplying Confidential Information, no Party obligates itself to provide any
particular information or Confidential Information to another Party nor to enter
into any further agreements or proceed with any other relationship or joint
venture.

22.1.6
Standard of Care. Each Party shall use at least the same standard of care to
protect Confidential Information it receives as it uses to protect its own
Confidential Information from unauthorized disclosure, publication, or

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Original Sheet No. 58

dissemination. Each Party may use Confidential Information solely to fulfill its
obligations to another Party under this LGIA or its regulatory requirements.

22.1.7
Order of Disclosure. If a court or a Government Authority or entity with the
right, power, and apparent authority to do so requests or requires any Party, by
subpoena, oral deposition, interrogatories, requests for production of
documents, administrative order, or otherwise, to disclose Confidential
Information, that Party shall provide the disclosing Party with prompt notice of
such request(s) or requirement(s) so that the disclosing Party may seek an
appropriate protective order or waive compliance with the terms of this LGIA.
Notwithstanding the absence of a protective order or waiver, the Party may
disclose such Confidential Information which, in the opinion of its counsel, the
Party is legally compelled to disclose. Each Party will use Reasonable Efforts
to obtain reliable assurance that confidential treatment will be accorded any
Confidential Information so furnished.

22.1.8
Termination of Agreement. Upon termination of this LGIA for any reason, each
Party shall, within ten (10) Calendar Days of receipt of a written request from
another Party, use Reasonable Efforts to destroy, erase, or delete (with such
destruction, erasure, and deletion certified in writing to the requesting Party)
or return to the requesting Party, without retaining copies thereof, any and all
written or electronic Confidential Information received from the requesting
Party, except that each Party may keep one copy for archival purposes, provided
that the obligation to treat it as Confidential Information in accordance with
this Article 22 shall survive such termination.

22.1.9
Remedies. The Parties agree that monetary damages would be inadequate to
compensate a Party for another Party’s Breach of its obligations under this
Article 22. Each Party accordingly agrees that the disclosing Party shall be
entitled to equitable relief, by way of injunction or otherwise, if the
receiving Party Breaches or threatens to Breach its obligations under this
Article 22, which equitable relief shall be granted without bond or proof of
damages, and the Breaching Party shall not plead in defense that there would be
an adequate remedy at law. Such remedy shall not be deemed an exclusive remedy
for the Breach of this Article 22, but shall be in addition to all other
remedies available at law or in equity. The Parties further acknowledge and
agree that the covenants contained herein are necessary for the protection of
legitimate business interests and are reasonable in scope. No Party, however,
shall be liable for indirect, incidental, or consequential or punitive damages
of any nature or kind resulting from or arising in connection with this
Article 22.

22.1.10
Disclosure to FERC, Its Staff or a State. Notwithstanding anything in this
Article 22 to the contrary, and pursuant to 18 CFR § 1b.20, if FERC or its
staff, during the course of an investigation or otherwise, requests information
from a Party that is otherwise required to be maintained in confidence pursuant
to this LGIA, the Party shall provide the requested information to FERC or its
staff, within the time provided for in the request for information. In providing
the information to FERC or its staff, the Party must, consistent with 18 CFR
§ 388.112, request that the information be treated as confidential and
non-public

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Original Sheet No. 59

by FERC and its staff and that the information be withheld from public
disclosure. Parties are prohibited from notifying the other Parties to this LGIA
prior to the release of the Confidential Information to FERC or its staff. The
Party shall notify the other Parties to this LGIA when it is notified by FERC or
its staff that a request to release Confidential Information has been received
by FERC, at which time any of the Parties may respond before such information
would be made public, pursuant to 18 CFR § 388.112. Requests from a state
regulatory body conducting a confidential investigation shall be treated in a
similar manner if consistent with the applicable state rules and regulations.

22.1.11
Subject to the exception in Article 22.1.10, any information that a disclosing
Party claims is competitively sensitive, commercial or financial information
under this LGIA (“Confidential Information”) shall not be disclosed by the
receiving Party to any person not employed or retained by the receiving Party,
except to the extent disclosure is (i) required by law; (ii) reasonably deemed
by the receiving Party to be required to be disclosed in connection with a
dispute between or among the Parties, or the defense of litigation or dispute;
(iii) otherwise permitted by consent of the disclosing Party, such consent not
to be unreasonably withheld; or (iv) necessary to fulfill its obligations under
this LGIA or as the Regional Transmission Organization or a Control Area
operator including disclosing the Confidential Information to a regional or
national reliability organization. The Party asserting confidentiality shall
notify the receiving Party in writing of the information that Party claims is
confidential. Prior to any disclosures of the that Party’s Confidential
Information under this subparagraph, or if any non-party or Governmental
Authority makes any request or demand for any of the information described in
this subparagraph, the Party who received the Confidential Information from the
disclosing Party agrees to promptly notify the disclosing Party in writing and
agrees to assert confidentiality and cooperate with the disclosing Party in
seeking to protect the Confidential Information from public disclosure by
confidentiality agreement, protective order or other reasonable measures.

ARTICLE 23. ENVIRONMENTAL RELEASES

23.1
Each Party shall notify the other Parties, first orally and then in writing, of
the release of any Hazardous Substances, any asbestos or lead abatement
activities, or any type of remediation activities related to the Generating
Facility or the Interconnection Facilities, each of which may reasonably be
expected to affect another Party. The notifying Party shall: (i) provide the
notice as soon as practicable, provided such Party makes a good faith effort to
provide the notice no later than twenty-four hours after such Party becomes
aware of the occurrence; and (ii) promptly furnish to the other Parties copies
of any publicly available reports filed with any Governmental Authorities
addressing such events.

A1-3:Network Upgrades

None

2013 Amendment - This GIA is being amended and restated to account for the
upgrades to Interconnection Facilities and network facilities at Ottumwa
Generating Station (“OGS”). The need for upgrades at the Generating Facility is
driven by the installation of an air quality control system (“AQCS”) at OGS. The
AQCS installation will include the addition of new main and reserve auxiliary
transformer units and the addition of a new high side reserve auxiliary breaker.
In conjunction with those changes, the 161 kV line currently connecting the
reserve auxiliary transformers to the 161 kV bus at Transmission Owner’s OGS
substation will be removed from the 161 kV bus and re-terminated at a breaker
and ½ position at the Transmission Owner’s OGS substation.

In December 2007, the Transmission Owner purchased the transmission assets of
Interstate Power and Light (“IP&L”). Prior to the transmission asset sale from
IP&L to the Transmission Owner, IP&L shared ownership of both the OGS Generating
Facility and the OGS transmission substation facilities with MidAmerican Energy
Company (“MEC”), where MEC owned 52% of the generating facility and transmission
facilities, and IP&L owned the remaining 48% of those facilities. A May 22, 1981
Facilities and Operating Agreement among the predecessors of IP&L and
predecessors of MEC provides that IP&L acts as agent for the construction,
operation, and maintenance of the OGS Generating Facility and transmission
facilities, and subsequent to the December 7, 2007 asset sale, the Transmission
Owner assumed the role of agent for the OGS transmission facilities. The OGS
Generating Facility upgrades and OGS transmission facilities upgrades
represented under this 2013 amendment of the Agreement will be jointly owned by
MEC and the Transmission Owner, with the Interconnection Customer acting as
agent for the OGS Generating Facility upgrades and Transmission Owner acting as
agent for the transmission facilities upgrades.

The Interconnection Customer will be responsible for the costs associated with
the Interconnection Facilities, and the Transmission Owner will be responsible
for the cost of the Network Upgrade.
