case may be, reasonable wear and tear excepted; provided, however, that, such

the matters hereinabove referred to, so long as such failure of compliance shall
not involve:

     Owned Facilities, the Power Station Site, or any material Part of any of

     interconnected with the high voltage network or to have access to
     transmission services and ancillary services to sell wholesale electric
     power or (C) have the authority to sell wholesale electric power at market-

     liability, if the application or validity of such Requirement of Law is
     being contested diligently and in good faith by appropriate proceedings, a
     material risk of) criminal liability or civil liability being incurred by

     satisfactory to such Transaction Party, to indemnify such Transaction Party

     recurring and are of such a nature so as to subject the other Party or any
     of its Affiliates to material adverse publicity or other consequences for
     which compensation in the form of reimbursement of monetary damages is, in
     the good faith judgment of such Person, not sufficient, and (x) such Party
     has failed to cure such event or events during the six-month period
     commencing on the date on which the other Party delivered notice to such
     Party concerning such event or (y) at any time during the cure period

     shall apply such proceeds first, in payment for the repair or restoration
                               -----
     of such Shared Facilities, to the extent necessary so that the condition of
     such Shared Facilities after such repair or replacement shall be at least
     equivalent to the condition thereof before the occurrence of such Event of
     Loss (on the assumption that such Shared Facilities were, immediately prior
     to the occurrence of such Event of Loss, being maintained in accordance
     with the terms of this Agreement), if such repair or restoration has not
     already been paid for by such Party; provided, however, that such

     application of such proceeds shall be required only to the extent that
     services affected by such Event of Loss are not available from third
     parties at rates comparable to the rates payable to such Party for such
     services hereunder; and second, to reimburse such Party for any such
                             ------
     payment or service made by such Party in connection with such repair or
     restoration, and any balance remaining shall be retained by or paid to such

rights of the other Party hereunder shall be subject to all reasonable
operational, environmental and safety rules and procedures required by SEMA or
the Owner Lessors, as the case may be, and such Permitted User.  Notwithstanding
any provision herein to the contrary, if the Shared Facilities are, at any time,
insufficient to allow the Owner Lessor Owned Facilities and the SEMA Owned
Facilities, as the case may be, to operate at their respective Maximum Operating
Capacities because of the construction of an additional electricity generating
facility or facilities located at the Power Station Site (each, an "Additional
                                                                    ----------
Facility"), or to allow SEMA or the Owner Lessor to use or operate the SEMA

contemplated herein or the Facilities as contemplated by the Operative Documents
or by the Facility Site Lease or preclude the use or operation of the Facility
Site in substantially the same manner and to substantially the same extent as
was permitted prior to such construction, in any such case, then the Owner
Lessor Owned Facilities and the SEMA Owned Facilities, as the case may be, shall
have priority use of the Shared Facilities in such amounts and for such time as
required to allow the Owner Lessor Owned Facilities and the SEMA Owned
Facilities, as the case may be, to operate at their respective Maximum Operating
Capacities; provided, however, that as between the Owner Lessor Owned Facilities
            --------  -------
and the SEMA Owned Facilities, the Owner Lessor Owned Facilities shall have
priority use over the Owner Lessor Shared Facilities and the SEMA Owned
Facilities shall have priority use over the SEMA Shared Facilities.

                                   ARTICLE IV

For any year following the Base Payment Period in which this Agreement shall
continue to be in effect, each Party agrees to adjust its annual Shared
Facilities Payment in accordance with the formula set forth below.  The initial
calculation of such adjustments to the Shared Facilities Payments shall be made
within thirty (30) days after the end of the Base Payment Period (the "Initial
                                                                       -------
Adjustment Date"), and shall be subsequently recalculated every fifth (5th) year
---------------
thereafter for so long as this Agreement continues to be in effect (the Initial
Adjustment Date and each anniversary thereof for which the Shared Facility
Payments are recalculated as described above is referred to as a "Change Date").
                                                                  -----------
In applying the formula the following definitions shall prevail:

       (i)    "Bureau" means the Bureau of Statistics of the United States
               ------
Department of Labor or any successor agency that shall issue the indices or data
referred to in subdivision (ii) below.

       (ii)   "Price Index" means the U.S. Consumer Price Index for all Urban
               -----------
Consumers - U.S. City Average (all items) as issued from time to time by the
Bureau or if the publication of the Consumer Price Index is discontinued, a
comparable index similar in nature to the discontinued index which clearly
reflects the diminution (or increase) in the real value of the purchasing power
of the U.S. Dollar.

       (iii)  "Monthly Price Index" means the Price Index issued by the Bureau
               -------------------
for each respective month in which a Change Date occurs.  Each Change Date will
thus have its own Monthly Price Index.

       (iv)   "Base Index" means the Price Index issued by the Bureau for the
               ----------
month of December, 2044.

       (v)    The "issue" of a Price Index means the release to the public of
                   -----
Price Index for the relevant month and the date of issue shall be the date it is
so released, whether or not the release occurs within such relevant month.
Retroactive adjustments shall be made to any payments made with respect to a
month before the issue of a Price Index for that month.

Commencing on any Change Date, the annual Shared Facilities Payments payable by
SEMA shall be increased or decreased for the next five (5) year period to an
amount calculated by multiplying the annual Shared Facilities Payments in effect
for the period immediately prior to such Change Date by a fraction, the
numerator of which is the Monthly Price Index in respect of the Change Date in
question and the denominator of which is the Monthly Price Index in respect to
the immediately preceding Change Date (or the Base Index with respect to the
Initial Adjustment Date).

The Shared Facility Payments shall be payable semi-annually in arrears in two
installments on June 30 and December 30 of each applicable year.  All Shared
Facilities Payments for any partial semi-annual period during which the last day
of the term hereof occurs shall be prorated, in each case, on the basis of the
actual number of days in such semi-annual period.  The Parties agree that each
Shared Facilities Payment made by SEMA hereunder shall be netted against the
correlative Shared Facilities Payment by Owner Lessors, and that Owner Lessors
shall remit its net Shared

                                       8
<PAGE>

Facilities Payment to SEMA on the applicable semi-annual payment date. Any
Shared Facilities Payments hereunder shall be in U.S. Dollars, and shall be made
to such Person and at such location as the receiving Party shall designate in
writing to the other Party from time to time.

     SECTION 4.2  Payment Default.  The failure of either Party to make any
                  ---------------
payment required to be made under Section 4.1 within 30 days after receipt of
written notice of such nonpayment shall constitute a default hereunder.  If any
such default occurs and is continuing, the non-defaulting Party may terminate
this Agreement by giving written notice to the defaulting Party the Owner
Participant, if applicable, and, if the Lien of the Lease Indenture shall not
have been discharged, the Lease Indenture Trustee of such default and the
intention to terminate, which termination shall be effective on a date specified
in such notice that is no earlier than 30 days following the date of such notice
unless such default shall have been cured prior to such specified date.

                                 MISCELLANEOUS

     SECTION 5.1  Notices.  Any notice, request, demand or other communication
                  -------
provided for in this Agreement shall be in writing in English and shall be given
and be deemed to have been duly given and received in the manner and at the time
or times provided for in Section 16.5 of the Participation Agreement.

     SECTION 5.2  Force Majeure.  No Party hereto shall be considered to be in
                  -------------
default in the performance of any of the obligations hereunder, other than
obligations of the Parties hereto to pay amounts due hereunder, if failure of
performance shall be due to an Event of Force Majeure. Any Party hereto rendered
unable to fulfill any obligation by reason of an Event of Force Majeure shall
give prompt notice of the same to the other Party, detailing such Event of Force
Majeure and thereafter exercise due diligence to remove such inability with all
reasonable dispatch.  Payment obligations of either hereunder may be suspended
to the extent and for so long as either Party's performance hereunder is
suspended due to an Event of Force Majeure, except with regard to payment for
services actually rendered and for such Shared Facilities made available prior
to or during the occurrence of such Event of Force Majeure.

     SECTION 5.3  Late Payments.  In the event any payment required to be made
                  -------------
hereunder is not submitted within the time period herein specified, the Party
failing to make such payment shall pay, in addition to the amount of the
required payment, interest at a rate per annum equal to the Overdue Rate, from
the date when such payment was due to the date of payment.

     SECTION 5.4  Successors and Assigns.  This Agreement shall be binding upon
                  ----------------------
and inure to the benefit of the Parties hereto and their respective successors
and permitted assigns.  Each Owner Lessor may assign as security its rights
hereunder to the Lease Indenture Trustee.  The Lease Indenture Trustee shall
have no obligations hereunder as a result of such assignment.

                                       9
<PAGE>

Upon foreclosure upon the Undivided Interest of an Owner Lessor, the rights of
such Owner Lessor hereunder may be transferred to the person who acquires such
Undivided Interest.

     SECTION 5.5  Transfers and Assignments.  SEMA and each Owner Lessor may
                  -------------------------
transfer or assign its rights under this Agreement to any Person without the
consent or approval of the other Party.  Subject to the assignment provisions of
any Operative Document then in effect, including Section 23.4 of any Facility
Lease, SEMA may not assign its obligations under this Agreement to any Person,
without (i) the consent of the Majority of Owner Lessors, which consent shall
not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed, and (ii) the assumption by
the transferee of the obligations of SEMA in a manner reasonably satisfactory to
the Majority of Owner Lessors.  No Owner Lessor may assign its obligations under
this Agreement to any Person, without (i) the consent of SEMA, which consent
shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed and (ii) the assumption by the
transferee of the obligations of such Owner Lessor in a manner reasonably
satisfactory to SEMA.  Neither SEMA nor any Owner Lessor shall (nor shall it
permit any other Person to), without the prior written consent of SEMA or the
Majority of Owner Lessors, as the case may be, which consent shall not be
unreasonably withheld, sell, assign, lease or otherwise transfer the SEMA Shared
Facilities or such Owner Lessor's Undivided Interest in the Owner Lessor Shared
Facilities, as the case may be, to any Person that is not a Permitted
Transferee, except for sales of assets no longer used or useful hereunder.  SEMA
or any Owner Lessor shall cause each Person to whom SEMA or any Owner Lessor
shall sell, assign, lease or otherwise transfer the SEMA Shared Facilities or
such Owner Lessor's Undivided Interest in the Owner Lessor Shared Facilities, as
the case may be, (other than in connection with any sale of assets no longer
used or useful hereunder) to enter into an agreement assuming the obligations of
SEMA or such Owner Lessor hereunder in form and substance satisfactory to SEMA
or the Majority of Owner Lessors, as the case may be (accompanied by such
opinions of counsel, certificates and other documents as the SEMA and each Owner
Lessor shall reasonably request).  Upon the execution and delivery of such new
agreement by the transferee, assignee or tenant to SEMA or any Owner Lessor,
this Agreement shall terminate with respect to SEMA or the Owner Lessor
transferring its Undivided Interest in the Owner Lessor Shared Facilities, as
the case may be, and such party shall be fully released from all obligations and
liabilities hereunder and SEMA and each remaining Owner Lessor shall look solely
to such transferee, assignee or tenant for performance of all the terms,
covenants and conditions set forth in such new agreement.

     SECTION 5.6  Conflict with Operative Documents.  From and after the date
                  ---------------------------------
hereof, should any provision of this Agreement be inconsistent or in conflict
with the provisions of any of the Operative Documents (other than the Ownership
and Operation Agreement), the provisions of such Operative Documents shall be
controlling.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, from and after the date hereof,
should any provision of this Agreement be inconsistent or in conflict with the
provisions of the Ownership and Operation Agreement, the provisions of this
Agreement shall be controlling.

     SECTION 5.7  Binding Obligations.  All of the respective covenants,
                  -------------------
undertakings and obligations of each Party hereto set forth in this Agreement
shall bind and shall be and become

                                       10
<PAGE>

the covenants and obligations of such Party and, to the extent permitted by law
and the existing contracts of such Party, shall apply to and bind:

               (a)  All mortgagees, trustees and secured parties under all
     present and future mortgages, indentures and deeds of trust, security
     agreements and other financing arrangements which are or may become a Lien

               (b)  All receivers, assignees for the benefit of creditors,
     bankruptcy trustees and referees of, or having control or jurisdiction
     over, such Party;

               (c)  All other Persons claiming by, through or under any of the
     foregoing; and

               (d)  Any successors or permitted assigns of any of those
     mentioned above in this Section 5.7.

     SECTION 5.8  Term.  The term of this Agreement shall commence on the
                  ----
Effective Date and shall expire on the earliest of (a) the Expiration Date
specified in Section 3.1; or (b) at such other time as may mutually be agreed
upon by each of the Parties hereto; provided, however, that, in no event shall
                                    --------  -------
such term expire prior to release of the Lien of the Lease Indenture Trustee
without the consent of the Lease Indenture Trustee.  Upon the expiration of the
term of this Agreement, all rights with respect to the Shared Facilities granted
and conveyed herein shall wholly terminate and expire.

     SECTION 5.9  Further Assurances.  Each Party hereby agrees (at the cost and
                  ------------------
expense of the requesting Party), at the expiration of the term of this
Agreement, to execute and deliver such release or other document as any other
Party may reasonably request for the purpose of further evidencing the
expiration and termination of any and all rights with respect to the Shared
Facilities hereunder which shall then have expired or been terminated pursuant
to the provisions hereof.  Each release or other document so to be executed and
delivered shall be in recordable form if any Party so requests.  In addition,
each Party hereto shall (at the cost and expense of the requesting Party)
promptly and duly execute and deliver to each other Party such documents and
take such further action as each other Party may reasonably request to carry out
more effectively the intent and purpose of this Agreement and to maintain the
prior security interest of the Lease Indenture Trustee in this Agreement and the
rights in the Shared Facilities granted and conveyed hereunder.

     SECTION 5.10  Termination.  Except as provided in Section 5.8, this
                   -----------
Agreement shall not terminate, nor shall any of the rights in the Shared

in any of the Shared Facilities and other rights granted and conveyed pursuant
to this Agreement with any estate or interest in the Power Station Site or any
parts of any Part thereof, (g) any inadequacy, incorrectness or failure of the
description of the Power Station Site, the Owner Lessor Owned Facilities Site,
the SEMA Owned Facilities Site, the Shared Facilities or any property or rights

performance or the observance by any Party hereto of any of their respective
covenants and agreements to be performed and observed by it under any of the

under the right of eminent domain or otherwise, the award made by the condemning
authority shall be distributed to SEMA or the Owner Lessors, as the case may be.
SEMA or the Owner Lessors, as the case may be, shall apply all proceeds of the
condemnation award received by it in respect of the SEMA Shared Facilities or
the Owner Lessor Shared Facilities, as the case may be, toward the costs of
repairing or replacing such Shared Facilities or the part thereof which has been
damaged; and any such proceeds not required for such purpose shall be

otherwise altered in any manner except in writing signed by SEMA and a Majority
of the Owner Lessors.

     SECTION 5.13  Severability.  In the event that any provision in this
                   ------------
Agreement is declared illegal or no longer in force by reason of any judgment or
order issued by a court or regulatory body of competent jurisdiction, all
remaining provisions of this Agreement not affected by such judgment or order
shall continue in full force and effect.  In addition, the failure of any Party
