as the "Roseton Auctioned Assets");

     WHEREAS, Central Hudson and Buyer are parties to that certain Asset

otherwise modified from time to time, the "Danskammer Asset Sale Agreement"),
pursuant to which Buyer has agreed to purchase, and Central Hudson has agreed to
sell, the Auctioned Assets (as defined in the Danskammer Asset Sale Agreement,
and referred to herein as the "Danskammer Auctioned Assets");

     WHEREAS, pursuant to the Roseton Asset Sale Agreement and the Danskammer
Asset Sale Agreement, the Parties have entered into this Agreement to evidence
the purchase price to be paid by Buyer for the Roseton Auctioned Assets and the
Danskammer Auctioned Assets;

     NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing premises and for other
good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby
acknowledged, the Parties hereby agree as follows:

        1. The purchase price for the Roseton Auctioned Assets and the

contemplated by the Danskammer Asset Sale Agreement.

        2. Neither the making nor the acceptance of this Agreement shall
enlarge, restrict or otherwise modify the terms of the Roseton Asset Sale

release by the Parties of any liabilities, duties or obligations imposed upon
any of them by the terms of the Roseton Asset Sale Agreement or the Danskammer
Asset Sale Agreement, including, without limitation, all other amounts required
to be paid by Buyer at or following Closing pursuant to Article III and Section
4.2(a) of each of the Roseton Asset Purchase Agreement and the Danskammer Asset
Purchase Agreement.

        3. In the event that any provision of this Agreement be construed to
conflict with a provision of the Roseton Asset Sale Agreement or the Danskammer
Asset Sale Agreement, the provision in the Roseton Asset Sale Agreement or the
Danskammer Asset Sale Agreement, as the case may be, shall be deemed
controlling.

        4. This Agreement shall bind and shall inure to the benefit of the
respective Parties and their respective successors and permitted assigns.

        5. Nothing in this Agreement is intended to confer upon any other person
except the Parties any rights or remedies hereunder or shall create any third
party beneficiary rights in any person.

        6. This Agreement shall be governed and construed in accordance with the
laws of the State of New York (regardless of the laws that might otherwise
govern under applicable principles of conflicts of law).

        7. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts, each of which shall
be deemed an original, but all of which together will constitute one and the
same instrument.
