by Party overpaid upon request or deducted by such Party from subsequent

      such Party if such Affiliate's creditworthiness and technical ability to
      perform hereunder is not materially different than that of such Party,
      (iii) transfer or assign this Agreement to any person or entity succeeding
      to all or substantially all of the assets of such Party, or (iv) in the
      case of the Owner Entity, transfer or assign this Agreement to any person
      or entity acquiring the Station; provided, however, that in each such
      case, any such assignee (other than an assignee in a transaction referred
      to in clause (i) above) shall agree in writing to be bound by the terms
      and conditions hereof and such assignee's creditworthiness and technical
      ability to perform hereunder shall not be materially different than that
      of such Party.

            (b) Assignment to NRG Northeast Power Marketing LLC. At such time as
      NRG Northeast Power Marketing LLC, a Delaware corporation ("Power
      Marketing LLC"), qualifies under Section 205 of the Federal Power Act to
      sell Power at market-based rates, Power Marketing shall assign all of its
      rights and obligations under this Agreement to Power Marketing LLC. At
      such time as (i) such assignment has been made and (ii) the Seller or
      other party to any Transition Energy Agreement to which Power Marketing is
      a party agrees to the assignment by Power Marketing of its rights and
      obligations thereunder to Power Marketing LLC, Power Marketing shall
      assign all of its rights and obligations under such Transition Energy
      Agreement to Power Marketing LLC.

      7.5 General. No amendment or modification to this Agreement shall be
enforceable unless reduced to writing and executed by both Parties. This
Agreement shall not impact any rights enforceable by any third party (other than
a permitted successor or assignee bound to this Agreement). No waiver by a Party
of any default by the other Party shall be construed as a waiver of any other
default. Any provision declared or rendered unlawful by any applicable court of
law or regulatory agency or deemed unlawful because of a statutory change will
not otherwise affect the remaining lawful obligations that arise under this
Agreement. The headings used herein are for convenience and reference purposes
only. All indemnity and audit rights hereunder shall survive the termination of
this Agreement for six years. For any period over which interest shall accrue,
interest shall accrue on the first day of such period, but shall not accrue on
the last day thereof.

      7.6 Confidential Information. During the Term of this Agreement and for
three (3) years thereafter, neither Party shall divulge, furnish or make
accessible to anyone or use in any way any confidential or secret information of
the other Party which it has acquired or become acquainted in the performance of
its obligations under this Agreement. Each Party acknowledges that the
above-described information constitutes a unique and


                                       9

valuable asset of the Party seeking such confidential treatment, and that any
disclosure or other use of such knowledge other than for the sole benefit of
such other Party would be wrongful and would cause it irreparable harm. Both
during and after the term of this Agreement, each Party will refrain from any
acts or omissions that would reduce the value of such knowledge or information
to such other Party. The foregoing obligations of confidentiality, however,
shall not apply to any knowledge or information which (i) is now published or
which subsequently becomes generally publicly known in the form in which it was
obtained from the Party seeking such confidential treatment, other than as a
direct or indirect result of the breach of this Agreement, (ii) is disclosed to
any regulatory authority having jurisdiction over the disclosing party, (iii) is
disclosed as required by law or pursuant to legal process, or (iv) is disclosed
to a lending institution in connection with any financing for the benefit of the
Owner Entity or NRG Northeast Generating LLC subject to the terms of a
confidentiality agreement having provisions substantially similar to this
Agreement.

      IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties have executed this Power Sales and Agency
Agreement in multiple counterparts to be construed as one as of the date first
set forth above.
