    period of at least 180 consecutive days (a "Disability");

    Board of Directors.

     materially inconsistent with the duties associated with the positions
     described in paragraph 1.2 as such duties are constituted as of the
     Effective Date, or the failure of Company or the Board of Directors to
     elect or reelect Executive to any of the positions described in
     paragraph 1.2 or the removal of him from any such positions;

          (ii)  a material diminution in the nature or scope of Executive's
     authority, responsibilities, or titles from those applicable to him as
     of the Effective Date, including a change in the reporting structure so

          (iii) the occurrence of acts or conduct on the part of Company, its

          (vi) a material breach by Company of any provision of this Agreement
     which, if correctable, remains uncorrected for 30 days following
     written notice of such breach by Executive to Company, it being agreed
     that any reduction in Executive's then current annual base salary, any
     reduction in Executive's Target Bonus (as defined below) or any failure
     to make the annual restricted stock awards provided for in Section 3.6,
     shall constitute a material breach by Company of this Agreement;

          (vii)  failure to appoint Executive as a director at or before the
     regularly scheduled Board of Directors meeting coinciding with or next
     following the Effective Date;

     shareholders;

          (ix) within six months after a Change in Control, for any reason
     in the sole discretion of Executive; or

          (x) before a Change in Control or after the sixth month after a Change
     in Control, for any other reason whatsoever, in the sole discretion of
     Executive.

For purposes of this Agreement, (I) a termination of employment by
Executive under any of clauses (i) through (viii), and a termination of
employment by Executive under clause (ix) where the Change in Control
occurs after the fourth annual anniversary of the Effective Date, shall
constitute a termination of employment by Executive for "Good Reason," (II)

in Control occurs on or before
                                        3
<PAGE>

the fourth annual anniversary of the Effective Date shall constitute
a termination of employment by Executive following a Change in Control as
described in Section 4.5 herein, and (III) a termination of employment by
Executive under clause (x) above shall constitute a termination of employment by
Executive "without Good Reason".

      2.4 Notice of Termination. If Company or Executive desires to terminate
          ---------------------
Executive's employment hereunder at any time prior to expiration of the term of
employment as provided in paragraph 2.1, it or he shall do so by giving written

          ---------------------
contrary, Company agrees not to pursue any claim against Executive resulting

Term.

Article 3:        COMPENSATION AND BENEFITS
                  -------------------------

      3.1 Base Salary. During the Term, Executive shall receive an annual base
          -----------
salary equal to $1,250,000, or such higher amounts as determined in the sole
discretion of the Board. Executive's annual base salary shall be paid in equal
installments in accordance with Company's standard policy regarding payment of
compensation to executives.

      3.2 Special  Signing  Bonus.  On the  Effective  Date,  Company  shall
          -----------------------
make a lump-sum  cash payment to Executive in the amount of $1,000,000.


      3.3 Annual Bonus. In addition to the base salary, during each calendar
          ------------
year during the Term commencing with calendar year 2004, Executive shall have
the opportunity to earn an annual cash bonus ("Bonus") under and subject to the
terms and conditions of the TXU Annual Incentive Plan ("AIP"). For purposes of
this Agreement, Executive's "Target Bonus" shall be 200% of Executive's
annualized base salary. It is expected that the AIP will be administered such
that there is an equal probability of Executive's Bonus exceeding the Target
Bonus as there is of Executive's Bonus being less than the Target Bonus. To the
extent the limitation on awards provided for under the AIP would limit the
amount of the Bonus contemplated herein, any amount over and above such AIP
limit will be paid by Company contemporaneously with the payment under the AIP.
Executive's Bonus for calendar year 2004 shall be no less than his full Target
Bonus.

     3.4 Special Long-Term Incentive Compensation. The Company will, as soon as
         ----------------------------------------
reasonably practical and in any event within thirty (30) days following the
Effective Date, contribute 500,000 shares of the Company's common stock ("Trust
Shares") to a trust to be established by the Company ("Trust"). Executive's
right to receive such Trust Shares shall be nonforfeitable at all times. The
trustee of the Trust shall be an independent trustee mutually agreeable to
Executive and Company. The sole beneficiary of the Trust shall be Executive. The
sole purpose of the Trust shall be to hold the Trust Shares and distribute them
to Executive in accordance with the terms of the Trust, which shall be
consistent with the provisions of this Section.

                                       4
<PAGE>

         Dividends on the Trust Shares, while held in the Trust, will be
reinvested in Company common stock and maintained in the Trust, and will be
deemed to constitute Trust Shares. Prior to distribution of the Trust Shares in
accordance with the provisions of this Section, the trustee of the Trust shall
have and exercise all incidents of ownership with respect to the Trust Shares,
and Executive shall have no right or interest in the Trust Shares other than the
right to receive the Trust Shares in accordance with, and subject to, the
provisions of this Section.

         Unless Executive has made an election to defer distribution of such
Trust Shares, (1) upon the third annual anniversary of the Effective Date the
Company shall direct the trustee of the Trust to immediately distribute to
Executive 50% of such Trust Shares and (2) upon the sixth annual anniversary of
the Effective Date the Company shall direct the trustee of the Trust to
immediately distribute to Executive the remaining and then existing Trust
Shares, and the trust will thereupon terminate. Upon such distributions,
Executive will own the Trust Shares so distributed without any restrictions or
limitations of any kind other than legal restrictions and limitations relating
to Executive's position with the Company. Notwithstanding anything in the
foregoing to the contrary, Executive may elect in his sole discretion to receive
his distributions in cash rather than Trust Shares.

         In the event that Executive's employment with the Company terminates
prior to the third or sixth annual anniversaries of the Effective Date, as
applicable, the timing of the distribution of the Trust Shares shall be
determined in accordance with Article 4 herein.

         Company shall, if Executive so requests, satisfy any income tax
withholding obligations in respect of the delivery of the Trust Shares otherwise
issuable to Executive by instructing the Trustee to issue the appropriate number
of Trust Shares necessary to satisfy Company's withholding tax obligations to
Company.

        3.5      Phantom  Performance  Shares.  On the  Effective  Date,
                 ----------------------------
Executive  will be awarded  theequivalent  of  1,000,000  shares  ("Performance
Units") of the  common  stock of  Company.  The Performance Units shall be
segregated and maintained in three (3) separate record keeping accounts
("Accounts") of 333,333, 333,333 and 333,334 Performance Units respectively. If
and when dividends are paid on Company common stock, each Account shall be
credited with additional Performance Units in an amount equal to the value of
the number of full and fractional shares of Company common stock which could
have been purchased with the amount of the dividend that would have been paid if
such stock were held in the Account. For purposes of crediting this theoretical
dividend to the Accounts, each Performance Unit shall be equivalent to one share
of Company common stock. In the event of any reorganization, recapitalization,
reclassification, stock split, reverse stock split, combination, share exchange,
or other similar event involving Company common stock, an appropriate adjustment
shall be made in the Accounts to prevent the enlargement or dilution of rights.

         The Accounts shall vest and be distributed to Executive in accordance
with the following table if and when, during the period ending on the eighth
annual anniversary of the Effective Date, Company's common stock, as reported on
the principal exchange on which Company's common stock trades, attains the share
price set forth below and maintains no less than such share price for a period
of thirty (30) consecutive trading days:

         compromising 333,334
         Performance Units)
         --------------------------------------

         Unless Executive has made an election to defer distribution of such
Performance Units, such distributions shall occur immediately after the
above-described threshold share price is achieved or as provided in Article 4
hereto. Executive shall have the right in his sole discretion to elect to
receive the distribution of such Performance Units in the form of cash or common
stock of the Company. Except as provided in Article 4 herein, in the event
Company's common stock does not meet one of the threshold share prices as set
forth above on or before the eighth annual anniversary of the Effective Date,
the applicable Account (and corresponding Performance Units) will be forfeited.

         Company shall, if Executive so requests, satisfy any income tax
withholding obligations in respect of the distributions described above by
withholding appropriate amounts in shares or cash from such distributions.

        3.6 Annual Lops:-Term Incentive Compensation Grants. Executive will be
            -----------------------------------------------
entitled to receive annual restricted stock awards under and subject to the
terms of the TXU Long-Term Incentive Compensation Plan ("LTICP") as described in
this Section 3.6. Each such award will be made following, and in connection
with, the executive officer annual review by the Organization & Compensation
Committee of Company's Board of Directors ("O&C Committee"), and will, except
as expressly described herein, be subject to terms, conditions and restrictions
comparable to those contained in awards heretofore granted to executive officers
under the LTICP, or such other terms, conditions and restrictions as may be
approved by the O&C Committee with the concurrence of Executive.

         Performance-Based Restricted Stock Awards. In 2004, Executive will be
         -----------------------------------------
entitled to receive two "performance-based" restricted stock awards, with a
target of 150,000 shares each, one such award having a two-year performance
period (i.e., April 1, 2004 through March 31, 2006), and the other award having
a three-year performance period (i.e., April 1, 2004 through March 31, 2007). In
addition to such awards in 2004, Executive will be entitled to receive a
"performance-based" award of restricted stock of 150,000 shares in each of 2005,
2006 and 2007, as well as in each year that this Agreement is extended beyond
the initial five (5) year Term. Subject to any limitations under the LTICP,
Company shall distribute the shares underlying each award simultaneously with
the distribution of comparable awards to other

                                       6
<PAGE>

executives of Company after the above-described performance objectives are
certified by the O&C Committee to have been achieved, or as provided in Article
4 hereof. Each Performance-Based Restricted Stock Award also earns the cash
equivalent of the dividends paid during the performance period. Dividends during
the performance period attributable to such restricted stock awards will be
reinvested in Company common stock and shall become additional shares of
restricted stock.

         As the following chart illustrates, and notwithstanding any provisions
of the LTICP to the contrary, performance for all Performance-Based Restricted
Stock Awards granted under this Section 3.6 shall be measured by Company's total
shareholder return ("TSR") relative to the other companies that comprise the
Standard and Poors Electric Utilities Index ("SPELEC") over the performance
period. Minimum, target and maximum performance levels are set in terms of
Company's TSR performance against the SPELEC quartiles.

         is part of an  overall  security program.  This will include conducting
         a security study by an  independent  security consultant for Executive
         and his immediate family and taking the necessary steps to implement
         the recommendations of the study at the expense of Company.  Company
         will provide  Executive and his immediate family members with air
         travel  (including  use, subject to reasonable  availability,  of
         Company  airplane)  between Company offices and his residence in
         Mandeville,  Louisiana, and will provide Executive with an income tax
         gross-up payment for any income tax attributable to such  travel.  In
         addition,  for reasons

                                       8

         of security and safety,  Executive and his family members may use
         Company's airplane, subject to reasonable availability,  for personal
         travel; provided, that such use will result in imputed income to
         Executive  (which  will  not be  grossed-up), determined in accordance
         with Internal Revenue Service rules and regulations.

             (iv) Relocation  Expenses - Company  shall  reimburse  Executive
         for all costs incurred by Executive in connection with the relocation
         of Executive and his family from Mandeville, Louisiana to Dallas,
         Texas, with the objective of keeping Executive whole financially with
         respect to his relocation to Dallas,  Texas. To the extent that any of
         the relocation expense  reimbursements  constitute taxable income to
         Executive,  Company will provide Executive with income tax gross-up
         payments for any income tax attributable to such reimbursement.  If
         Executive so requests in writing, Company shall provide Executive with
         a payment equal to the greater of (a) Executive's actual equity in his
         current residence in Mandeville, Louisiana, as evidenced by receipts
         provided by Executive to Company, or (b) the  appraised  value of such
         residence  pursuant to an appraisal performed by an independent
         appraiser (the "Equity").  Company shall engage a relocation company to
         sell such residence at Company's  expense.  In the event that the
         actual sales price of Executive's residence is greater than the Equity,
         Company shall retain such excess. In the event that the actual sales
         price of  Executive's  residence is less  than the  Equity, Company
         shall  bear such loss and Executive shall not be responsible for
         paying any additional amounts to Company.

              (v) Temporary Living Expenses - In addition to amounts available
         for temporary living expenses under Company's standard relocation
         policy, Company shall, for a period of eighteen (18) months from the
         Effective Date, pay Executive $8,000 per month as a housing allowance,
         plus gross-up payments for any income tax attributable to such housing
         allowance.

         4.6 Certain Additional Payments by Company. Notwithstanding anything
             --------------------------------------
to the contrary in this Agreement, if any payment, distribution or provision of
a benefit by Company to or for the benefit of Executive, whether paid or
payable, distributed or distributable or provided or to be provided pursuant to
the terms of this Agreement or otherwise (a "Payment"), would be subject to an
excise or other special additional tax that would not have been imposed absent
such Payment (including, without limitation, any excise tax imposed by Section
4999 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended), or any interest or
penalties with respect to such excise or other additional tax (such excise or
other additional tax, together with any such interest or penalties, are
hereinafter collectively referred to as the "Excise Tax"), Company shall pay to
Executive an additional payment (a "Gross-up Payment") in an amount such that
after payment by Executive of all taxes (including any interest or penalties
imposed with respect to such taxes), including any income taxes and Excise Taxes
imposed on any Gross-up Payment, Executive retains an amount of the Gross-up
Payment (taking into account any similar gross-up payments to Executive under
any stock incentive or other benefit plan or program of Company) equal to the
Excise Tax imposed upon the Payments. Company and Executive shall make an
initial determination as to whether a Gross-up Payment is required and the
amount of any such Gross up Payment. Executive shall notify Company in writing
of any claim by the Internal Revenue Service which, if successful, would require
Company to make a Gross-up Payment (or a Gross up Payment in excess of that, if
any, initially determined by Company and Executive) within ten business days
after the receipt of such claim. Company shall notify Executive in writing at
least ten business days prior to the due date of any response required with
respect to such claim if it plans to contest the claim. If Company decides to
contest such claim, Executive shall cooperate fully with Company in such action;
provided, however, Company shall bear and pay directly or indirectly all costs
and expenses (including additional interest and penalties) incurred in
connection with such action and shall indemnify and hold Executive harmless, on
an after-tax basis, for any Excise Tax or income tax, including interest and
penalties with respect thereto, imposed as a result of Company's action. If, as
a result of Company's action with respect to a claim, Executive receives a
refund of any amount paid by Company with respect to such claim, Executive shall
promptly pay such refund to Company. If Company fails to timely notify Executive
whether it will contest such claim or Company determines not to contest such
claim, then Company shall immediately pay to Executive the portion of such
claim, if any, which it has not previously paid to Executive. Company's
obligation under this Section 4.6 shall continue after the termination or
expiration of the Term.

          4.7 Payment Obligations Absolute. Company's obligation to pay
              ----------------------------
Executive the amounts and to make the arrangements provided in this Article 4
shall be absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any
circumstances, including, without limitation, any set-off, counterclaim,
recoupment, defense or other right which Company (including its

                                        14
<PAGE>

subsidiaries and affiliates) may have against him or anyone else. All amounts
payable by Company shall be paid without notice or demand. Executive shall not
be obligated to seek other employment in mitigation of the amounts payable or
arrangements made under any provision of this Article 4, and the obtaining of
any such other employment (or the engagement in any endeavor as an independent
contractor, sole proprietor, partner, or joint venturer) shall in no event
effect any reduction of Company's obligations to make (or cause to be made) the
payments and arrangements required to be made under this Article 4.

         Executive acknowledges and agrees that the payments and benefits
provided for in this Article 4 constitute the exclusive remedy of Executive upon
termination of employment for any reason. Executive further agrees that upon any
termination of his employment, upon Company's payment of all amounts and
satisfaction of all other obligations due immediately upon termination, and the
scheduling of all other payments and obligations due to Executive under this
Agreement to the satisfaction of Executive, Executive shall execute a release of
claims arising out of Executive's employment with, and termination of employment
from, Company in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A (adjusted as necessary to
                                             ---------
conform to then existing legal requirements). Such release shall in no way limit
or release Company from or delay Company's obligation to pay or distribute
amounts, or provide other benefits, required to be paid, distributed or provided
before or after execution of such release.

4.8      Certain Defined Terms.  For purposes of this  Agreement,  the following

   by a specific vote or by approval of the proxy statement of Company in which
   such person is named as a nominee for director, without objection to such
   nomination) shall, for purposes of this clause (ii), be considered as though
   such person were a member of the Incumbent  Board;  (iii) a  recapitalization
