               one million four hundred seventy-four thousand
               seven hundred fifty Dollars ($1,474,750).  As of

               capital of the Company, par value Rs. 100 per

                    (ii) The Company agrees to issue and sell to
               RDC of Nepal, and RDC of Nepal agrees to purchase,
               thirty-eight thousand three hundred thirty-three

               Nepal shall pay such Initial Share Amount in full
               prior to the initial Disbursements under the
               Investment Agreement and prior to the initial

                    (iii)     RDC of Nepal represents and
               warrants that, by the Financial Closing Date
               thirty eight thousand three hundred thirty three
               (38,333) shares for a total purchase price of
               three hundred eighty three thousand three hundred
               twenty eight Dollars ($383,328) of the Initial
               Share Amount shall be paid to the Company.

                    (iv) The Company further agrees to issue and
               sell to RDC of Nepal, and RDC of Nepal further
               agrees to purchase one hundred nine thousand one
               hundred forty two (109,142) additional shares of
               the share capital of the Company, par value
               Rs. 100 per share, for an additional purchase
               price of one million ninety one thousand four
               hundred twenty two Dollars ($1,091,422).  Such
               amount shall be paid in installments (each, a
               "Subscription Amount Payment"), pro rata to the
               proceeds of the Loans prior to the receipt by the
               Company of such proceeds of the Loans.

                    (v)  The Company shall deliver to RDC of
               Nepal certificates representing the Subscribed

               places to be agreed upon by the parties hereto.

     (b)  If and to the extent that a Project Funds Shortfall
exists at any time, RDC of Nepal shall pay to the Company, on
such date or dates as the Company, the Trustee or either of the
Lenders specify in a written notice or written notices to RDC of
Nepal, such additional subscription amounts as are required
pursuant to the Share Retention and Project Funds Agreement (but
in the event of any conflict between a notice given by the
Company and a notice given by either of the Lenders or the
Trustee, the notice given by such Lender or the Trustee shall
prevail).

     (c)  Notwithstanding paragraphs (a) and (b), at the option
of the Trustee or the Lenders following the occurrence and during
the continuation of an Event of Default, RDC of Nepal shall pay
to the Company the amount by which the Subscription Amount
Payments theretofore made by RDC of Nepal is less than one
million four hundred seventy four thousand seven hundred fifty
Dollars ($1,474,750), and such payment shall be made by RDC of
Nepal on such date as the Company, either of the Lenders or the
Trustee shall specify in a written notice to RDC of Nepal (but in
the event of any conflict between a notice given by the Company
and a notice given by any such Lender or the Trustee, the notice
given by such Lender or the Trustee shall prevail).

     (d)  RDC of Nepal will deliver on or prior to the Financial
Closing Date an Equity Letter of Credit issued in favor of the
Trustee, and in an amount equal to one million ninety one
thousand four hundred twenty two Dollars ($1,091,422) (such
Dollar amount to equal the Subscription Amount minus the Initial
Share Amount).  The stated amount of the Equity Letter of Credit
shall be reduced by the amount of each Subscription Amount
Payment made in accordance with Section 2.1(a)(iv) hereof.  The
Equity Letter of Credit shall remain outstanding, and in full
force and effect, until the Trustee or the Lenders have notified
in writing the issuing bank that RDC of Nepal has made
Subscription Amount Payments equal to one million four hundred
seventy four thousand seven hundred fifty Dollars ($1,474,750) or
that RDC of Nepal's obligations under this Article 2 have
expired.  In the event RDC of Nepal fails to make any
Subscription Amount Payment or other payment as and when required
hereunder, the Trustee or either of the Lenders shall be entitled
to demand payment under the Equity Letter of Credit of an amount
equal to such payment.  Additionally, if the Trustee or the
Lenders have received a notice from the issuing bank that the
Equity Letter of Credit will be terminated or will not be renewed
or extended, then either of the Lenders or the Trustee may, at
any time after receiving the aforesaid notice, draw upon the
Equity Letter of Credit in an amount equal to the full amount of
the Equity Letter of Credit.

the Subscription Amount Payments no later than 11:00 a.m.

in the Debt Payment Sub-Account (in the case of payments made
under Section 2.1(b) hereof), or to such other person or address
or account as the Trustee may from time to time specify in
writing to RDC of Nepal, without offset, abatement, withholding
or reduction of any kind.  All such payments shall be applied in
the manner required under the Investment Agreement and the Trust
and Retention Agreement.

                           COVENANTS

     Section 3.1.   RDC of Nepal Covenants.

     (a)  RDC of Nepal hereby covenants and agrees that, for so
long as it shall have any obligations hereunder and except as
permitted under Section 3.1(b) hereof, it shall at all times
preserve and maintain in full force and effect its existence as a
company under the laws of the Cayman Islands; and

     (b)  it shall not merge into or consolidate with any other
Person, change its form of organization or the scope or nature of
its business, or liquidate or dissolve itself (or suffer any such
liquidation or dissolution), or sell, lease, transfer or
otherwise dispose of all or any substantial portion of its
assets; provided, however, that nothing herein shall prevent RDC
of Nepal from encumbering, or transferring an interest in, its
Shares pursuant to its Share Pledge Agreement or otherwise to the
extent such encumbrance or transfer does not result in a Default
or an Event of Default under any Loan Document.

     Section 3.2.   Indemnification.  RDC of Nepal shall defend,
indemnify and hold harmless the Company, the Trustee and each of
the Lenders from and against any and all costs, expenses,
liabilities, losses, damages, injunctions, suits, actions, fines,
penalties, claims and demands, of every kind or nature, including
attorney's fees and court costs, which are occasioned by or
result from any failure by RDC of Nepal to timely perform any of
the terms, agreements or covenants to be performed hereunder.

     Section 3.3.   Obligations Absolute.

     (a)  No compromise, alteration, amendment, modification,
extension, renewal, release or other change of, or waiver,
consent or other action in respect of any liability or obligation
under or in respect of, or of any of the terms, covenants or
conditions of, the Investment Agreement or any other Principal
Document, or any Security, shall in any way alter or affect any
of the obligations hereunder of the Company or RDC of Nepal.

               (b)  (i)  The obligations of RDC of Nepal under
               this Agreement are absolute and unconditional and
               shall not be affected by (x) any default by the
               Company in the performance or observance of any of
               its agreements or covenants in any Loan Document,
               this Agreement or any other Principal Document,
               (y) the bankruptcy, insolvency, winding up or
               other similar proceeding of the Company, RDC of
               Nepal or any other Person, or (z) any other
               circumstance, happening, condition or event
               whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the
               foregoing.  The obligations of RDC of Nepal under
               this Agreement shall not be subject to any
               abatement, reduction, limitation, impairment,
               termination, set-off, defense, counterclaim or
               recoupment whatsoever or any right to any thereof,
               and shall not be released, discharged or in any
               way affected by any reorganization, arrangement,
               compromise, composition or plan affecting the
               Company or by any lack of validity or
               enforceability of the Investment Agreement or any
               document executed in connection therewith, whether
               or not RDC of Nepal or the Company shall have
               notice or knowledge of any of the foregoing.

                    (ii) If the obligations of RDC of Nepal
               hereunder are unenforceable by reason of the
               insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of the
               Company or any other Person, RDC of Nepal shall
               nonetheless pay any amounts due hereunder directly
               to the Trustee.

     (c)  Notwithstanding paragraphs (a) and (b) above, receipt
of an amount drawn on the Equity Letter of Credit shall
constitute satisfaction of RDC of Nepal's obligation to pay a
Subscription Amount Payment, to the extent of the amount so
received.

     (d)  Each of RDC of Nepal and the Company hereby irrevocably
waives, to the extent that it may do so under applicable law, any
defense based on the adequacy of a remedy at law which may be
asserted as a bar to the remedy of specific performance in any
action brought against it.

     (e)  RDC of Nepal hereby irrevocably waives, to the extent
it may do so under applicable law, any protection to which it may
be entitled under bankruptcy, insolvency or similar laws of any
jurisdiction in the event of a Company Bankruptcy.  In the event
a trustee in bankruptcy or the debtor-in-possession takes any
action (including, without limitation, the institution of any
action, suit or other proceeding) in a Company Bankruptcy for the
purpose of enforcing the obligations of RDC of Nepal under this
Agreement, RDC of Nepal hereby agrees, to the extent that it may
do so under applicable law, that it will not assert any defense,
claim or counterclaim denying liability thereunder on the basis
that this Agreement is an executory contract that cannot be
assumed, assigned or enforced.  If a Company Bankruptcy shall
occur, RDC of Nepal, to the extent it may do so under applicable
law, shall reconfirm its pre-petition waiver of any protection to
which it may be entitled to under any such laws and, to give
effect to such waiver, RDC of Nepal consents to the assumption
and enforcement of each provision of this Agreement by the debtor-
in-possession or the Company's trustee in bankruptcy, as the case
may be.

  (1) As used in this Agreement or in any Confirmation.  "Option"
means any Rate Swap Transaction that is identified in the related
Confirmation as an Option and provides for the grant by Seller to
Buyer  of  (i)  the  right  to  cause  an  underlying  Rate  Swap

     (b)  On the terms set forth in this Agreement (including the
          related Confirmation), Seller grants to Buyer pursuant to the
          Option, (I) if  "Physical Settlement" is specified to be
          applicable to the Option, the right to cause the Underlying Rate
          Swap Transaction to become effective, (ii) if "Cash Settlement"
          is specified to be applicable to the Option, the right to cause
          Seller to pay Buyer pursuant to Section 2(a) of this Agreement

          become the Termination Date of the Related Rate Swap Transaction.

          applicable to the Option and (ii) the right to cause that
          Underlying Rate Swap Transaction to become effective has been
          exercised.

     (c)  Buyer may exercise the right or rights granted pursuant to
          the Option only by delivering irrevocable notice (a "Notice of
          Exercise") to Seller (which, notwithstanding any other provision
          of this Agreement or the Code, may be delivered orally (including
          by telephone)).  The Notice of Exercise must become effective
          during the Option Exercise Period and must include the Exercise
          Terms, if any.

     (d)  Buyer will, if "Written Confirmation" is specified to be
          applicable to the Option or upon demand from Seller (which
          notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement or the
          Code, may be delivered orally (including by telephone)), (i)
          execute a written confirmation confirming the substance of the
          Notice of Exercise and deliver the same to Seller or (ii) issue a
          telex to Seller setting forth the substance of the Notice of
          Exercise.  Buyer shall cause such executed written confirmation
          or telex to be received by Seller within one Local Banking Day

          within such time, Buyer will be deemed to have satisfied its
          obligations under the immediately preceding sentence at the time
          that such executed written confirmation or telex becomes
          effective.

     (e)  Any notice or communication given, and permitted to  be
          given, orally (including by telephone) in connection with the
          Option will be effective when actually received by the recipient.

not  constitute an Event of Default or Potential Event of Default
with  respect  to X as the Defaulting Party and (b)  Y  shall  be
entitled to designate an Early Termination Date pursuant  in  (I)
either Section 5(b)(i) or 5(b)(ii) of this Agreement with respect

Agreement with respect to Y as the Burdened Party.  For  purposes
of  this Agreement.  "Potential Event of Default" means an  event
that  with the giving of notice or lapse of time (or both)  would
