RECITALS

of this Guaranty with PJM pursuant to which Cygnus Energy Futures, LLC may from time to time enter into power and/or related purchase
and sale transactions in the PJM Control Area; and


WHEREAS, pursuant to the PJM Open Access Transmission
Tariff, PJM Operating Agreement and/or the PJM Reliability Assurance Agreement among Load Serving Entities in the PJM Control Area,
(the “Agreements”), PJM Settlement and PJM is authorized to require Transmission Customers and PJM Members to provide
and maintain in effect appropriate creditworthiness arrangements; and


WHEREAS, PJM will accept Cygnus Energy Futures, LLC

in connection with the Agreements will be guaranteed by Guarantor;


WHEREAS, Guarantor will directly or indirectly benefit
from Cygnus Energy Futures, LLC becoming a member or transmission customer of PJM and deems it to be in Guarantor’s best
interest to provide this guarantee to PJM Settlement; and


WHEREAS, Guarantor is willing to guarantee payments,

NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the above premises
and the mutual promises and covenants contained below (which the Guarantor acknowledges constitute adequate consideration for its
obligations hereunder) the Guarantor, intending to be legally bound, agrees as follows:


		(1)	Obligations of Guarantor. Guarantor unconditionally guarantees to PJM Settlement the prompt
and complete payment of all amounts owed to PJM Settlement by Cygnus Energy Futures, LLC in regard to the Agreements (or any successor
agreements). If all or any part of such amounts is not paid by Cygnus Energy Futures, LLC when due, Guarantor shall, upon the demand
of PJM Settlement, immediately pay such amount. This is a primary, absolute obligation of Guarantor enforceable by PJM Settlement,
its successors and assigns, or any of its members on its behalf, regardless of Cygnus Energy Futures, LLC’s ability or willingness
to pay.

		(2)	Duration. This Guaranty shall continue in force until the entire indebtedness covered by this
Guaranty is repaid in full to PJM Settlement and the Agreement is terminated. PJM Settlement shall not be bound or obligated to
exhaust its recourse against Cygnus Energy Futures, LLC or other persons or take any other action before being entitled to demand
performance by Guarantor hereunder. This Guaranty shall continue to be effective even in the event of the insolvency, bankruptcy
or reorganization of Cygnus Energy Futures, LLC. This Guaranty will also survive and be binding upon Guarantor following any merger,
reorganization, consolidation or other change in Cygnus Energy Futures, LLC's or Guarantor’s structure, personnel, business
or affairs.



		(3)	Remedies of PJM Settlement. The rights and remedies of PJM Settlement under this Guaranty
are cumulative and concurrent and shall not be exclusive of any other rights or remedies that PJM Settlement may have against Cygnus
Energy Futures, LLC or Guarantor. No set-off, counterclaim, reduction or diminution of an obligation or any defense of any kind
or nature that Guarantor has or may have against Cygnus Energy Futures, LLC or PJM Settlement shall affect, modify or impair the
obligations of Guarantor under this Guaranty.



		(4)	Waivers. Guarantor acknowledges that PJM Settlement will rely upon this Guaranty in accepting
Cygnus Energy Futures, LLC as a member or transmission customer under the Agreements. Guarantor accordingly waives any claim or
defense based upon lack of consideration. Guarantor also irrecoverably waives presentment, demand, protest or other notice of any
kind, including, without limitation, notice of acceptance of this Guaranty and notice of any claim or demand upon Cygnus Energy
Futures, LLC or Guarantor. Without notice to Guarantor, PJM Settlement may extend the time for performance under any agreement
with Cygnus Energy Futures, LLC or modify, supplement or amend any agreement, and otherwise agree in any manner with Cygnus Energy
Futures, LLC without affecting Guarantor’s unconditional obligation under this Guaranty.



		(5)	Effect of Bankruptcy. In the event that, pursuant to any insolvency, bankruptcy, reorganization,
receivership or other debtor relief law or any judgment, order or decision thereunder, PJM Settlement must rescind or restore any
payment, or any part thereof, received by PJM Settlement, any prior release or discharge from the terms of this Agreement shall
be with out effect, and this Agreement will remain in effect.



		(6)	Miscellaneous. This Guaranty is for the benefit of PJM Settlement, its successors and assigns,
and its members; and is binding upon Guarantor, its successors and assigns, except that Guarantor may not assign or transfer any
of its obligations under this Guaranty, whether by operation of law or otherwise, without the prior written consent of PJM Settlement.
Guarantor will reimburse PJM Settlement for any expenses incurred by PJM Settlement in enforcing this Guaranty, including reasonable
legal fees. If any provision of this Guaranty is found by a court of competent jurisdiction to be prohibited or unenforceable,
this Guaranty shall be ineffective only to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability and such shall not invalidate the
balance of the Guaranty. Guarantor represents and warrants to PJM Settlement that the execution, delivery and performance of this
Guaranty by Guarantor have been duly authorized by all requisite corporate action of Guarantor. Any Correspondence to the beneficiary
should be sent to the following address:
