                  NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual promises set
forth herein, and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt of which is
hereby acknowledged, the Parties hereto agree as follows:

SECTION 1.        DEFINITIONS

                  Unless otherwise specified, capitalized terms used herein but
not defined herein have the respective meanings assigned to such terms in the
Mirror PPA.

SECTION 2.        CAPACITY SUPPLY

                  (a)  Camden shall arrange for Capacity to be made
available to EPME, which may include, at Camden's option, Capacity provided by
the Camden Facility or from other sources of such Capacity, such that EPME shall
be credited by PJM with at least one hundred and forty-nine (149) MW per day of
such Capacity credits through the end of the term of the Mirror PPA. Camden
shall take all necessary steps utilizing PJM's "eCapacity" mechanism, or as
otherwise may be required by PJM, such that EPME's account with PJM shall
reflect such Capacity credits as of the Effective Date of the Mirror PPA and at
all times throughout the term thereof. EPME agrees to cooperate with Camden in
making any submittals required by PJM.

                  (b)  The amount of Capacity credits to be provided to
EPME above is based on the methodology currently specified in the RAA. If such
methodology is no longer used by PJM, the minimum quantity of Capacity credits
Camden is required to provide hereunder (restated in terms of the new unit of
measurement) shall be calculated based upon the new measurement methodology as
specified in Article II(c) of the Mirror PPA. If the Mirror PPA no longer
requires EPME to obtain such Capacity credits, Camden shall provide Capacity to
EPME in an amount equal to the amount specified in the measurement methodology
in effect immediately prior to the cancellation of such requirement.

                  (c)  If Camden fails for reasons other than a Force
Majeure or in the event of an occurrence described in Article II(D) of the
Mirror PPA, during any Month to provide all or a part of the Capacity to EPME
pursuant to this Agreement, EPME shall use reasonable commercial efforts to
purchase replacement Capacity in the amount of such shortfall, and Camden will
be obligated to reimburse EPME for all such replacement costs. In the event that
EPME, in spite of using reasonable commercial efforts, is unable to purchase
such Capacity shortfall, Camden shall pay to EPME an amount equal to the
deficiency charge, if any, or other charges, as applicable, payable by EPME
under Article V(E) of the Mirror PPA.

                                      -2-

<PAGE>

                  (d)  The foregoing liquidated damages shall be the sole
damages to which EPME shall be entitled as the result of any failure by Camden
to provide Capacity under this Agreement. Under no circumstances shall Camden be
liable for special, consequential, exemplary, tort or other damages or costs.

SECTION 3.        MISCELLANEOUS

                  (a)  Limitation on Remedy. Notwithstanding anything
herein to the contrary, in the event of a default by Camden in the performance
of its obligations hereunder, EPME agrees that in no event shall it seek or be
entitled to any amendment, modification set-off or other relief under or with
respect to its rights and obligations under the Mirror PPA.

                  (b)  Representation and Warranty. Camden represents and
warrants to EPME that Camden has all requisite power and authority to execute,
deliver and perform its obligations under this Agreement.

                  (c)  Notices. Any notice, request, demand, or statement
which any Party may desire to give to the other Party shall be in writing and
except as otherwise provided for in this Agreement shall be considered as duly
delivered when mailed by certified mail or delivered against receipt by

                  (d)  Payment. Camden shall pay EPME for Capacity
replacement costs, deficiency charges, or other costs that EPME incurs under
Section 2(c) hereof, within thirty (30) days of receipt of a written notice from
EPME stating the amount of such charges or costs. If payment is not made by the
due date specified herein, Camden shall pay to EPME an interest charge on unpaid
amounts which shall accrue daily from the due date until the date upon which
