Section 1.Incorporation of the Loan Agreement.  All capitalized terms which are not defined hereunder shall have the same meanings as set forth in the Loan Agreement, and the Loan Agreement, to the extent not inconsistent with this Amendment, is incorporated herein by this reference as though the same were set forth in its entirety.

Section 2.    Consent.  Subject to the satisfaction of the conditions precedent set forth in Section 4 hereof:
(a)    Notwithstanding Section 13.3 (Liens) of the Loan Agreement, Lenders hereby consent to the execution and delivery by PMRL of a security agreement in form and substance acceptable to Administrative Agent by which PMRL will grant a priority security interest to Capital Power in all of PMRL’s present and after-acquired right, title, estate and interest in the assets that comprise the Genesee Coal Mine (excluding, in all instances, all cash and accounts receivable, together with all products and proceeds thereof) as collateral security for certain continuing obligations of PMRL to the Genesee Joint Venture, subject to execution of a Subordination Agreement between Capital Power and Administrative Agent in form and substance acceptable to the Lenders, provided that upon receipt of the Accelerated Receivable Payment by PMRL the Borrowers shall repay all then outstanding Revolving Loans.  
(b)    The foregoing consent is expressly limited to the transactions described above in this Section 2, and shall not be deemed or otherwise construed to constitute a consent to any other transaction, whether or not similar to the transactions described above in this Section 2.  Lenders have granted the consent set forth in this Section 2 in this particular instance and in light of the facts and circumstance that presently exist, and the grant of such consent shall not constitute a course of dealing or impair Lenders’ right to withhold any similar consent in the future.
(c)    For the avoidance of doubt, it is understood and agreed that all inventory located at the Genesee Coal Mine shall not constitute Eligible Canadian Inventory or Eligible Parts Inventory and all receivables due from Capital Power to PMRL shall not constitute Eligible Canadian Accounts at any time.
