SECTION 3.
            AMOUNT OF ENERGY AND
      POWER SOLD.




(a)           The
District agrees to sell to the Purchaser and the Purchaser agrees to purchase,
solely from the gross revenues of the Purchaser's light and power system, for
the benefit of consumers in the State of Washington, subject to adjustment in
accordance with Section 21 hereof, eight per cent (8%) of the Priest Rapids
Development Output.  Deliveries will be made insofar as possible as
requested by the Purchaser all as provided in Section 6 hereof; provided
that such deliveries, together with deliveries requested by all other Purchasers
(including deliveries to the District pursuant to its reservation under
subsection (b) of Section 3 hereof):


(1)           Will
be possible of fulfillment under the terms of said Federal Power Commission
License;


(2)           Will
not exceed the capability of the Development or subject it or its operation to
undue hazard.


(b)           The
District reserves thirty-six and one-half per cent (36-1/2%) of the said Priest
Rapids Development Output and shall be entitled to the power and energy thus
reserved and to the rights and privileges associated therewith and subject to
the same obligations, including those provided in Section 21 hereof, but
excepting those recited in Section 13 hereof, as it would have if the
District were one of the Purchasers and had rights, privi leges and
obligations similar to those of the Purchasers.  The District
covenants and agrees that it will establish, maintain and collect rates or
charges for the power and energy reserved by it from the Development as provided
in Section 3(b) hereof, which shall be fair and nondiscriminatory and
adequate to provide revenues sufficient to enable the District to pay its
pro-rata share of the Annual Power Costs.  All revenues derived by the
District from the sale of the output of the Development to the Purchasers,
together with payments by the District for power and energy reserved by it from
the Development, shall be segregated, deposited and held separate and apart from
all other revenues of the District.




SECTION 4.
            ANNUAL POWER
      COSTS.




(a)           "Annual
Power Costs" as used in this contract shall be deemed to mean all of the
District's costs resulting from the ownership, operation, maintenance of and
renewals and replacements to the Priest Rapids Development, including, but not
limited to, the items of cost hereinafter mentioned in this Section 4 that
are incurred or paid by the District during each Contract Year in connection
with said Development, to-wit:


(1)           Amounts
required to be set aside by the District for the payment of Debt Service as
required by the Bond Resolution;


(2)           An
amount not to exceed six hundred thousand dollars ($600,000) per annum to be
placed in a Reserve for Contingencies, Renewals and Replacements, until the sum
of six million dollars ($6,000,000) in principal amount has been
accumulated.  The moneys in such Reserve Fund shall also be used for
the purpose of making up any deficiency in the Reserve Account in the Bond Fund
as established in the Bond Resolution.  In the event of
withdraw als from
the Reserve for Contingencies, Renewals and Replacements, the funds withdrawn
shall be replaced at the rate of not to exceed six hundred thousand dollars
($600,000) in any one year;


(3)           Amounts
which may be required to pay for the prevention or correction of any unusual
loss or damage or for major replacements to keep said Development in good
operating condition to the extent that such costs are not covered by insurance,
and by the Reserve for Contingencies, Renewals and Replacements.  In
the event of any such unusual loss or damage, or major replacement which will
cost in excess of the amount of money then in said reserve, plus insurance
proceeds, and plus two million dollars ($2,000,000), the District shall issue
equal lien (pari passu) bonds payable from the revenues of the said Development
to pay the portion of such costs which shall exceed insurance proceeds, if any,
provided, that
such bonds can then be legally issued and can be sold;


(4)           An
amount which when added to the Annual Costs itemized in Sections 4(a)(2)
and 4(a)(3) hereof will equal fifteen per center (15%) of the annual Debt
Service during the applicable Contract Year.  Such amount shall be
used by the District:  first, for the
purpose of making up any deficiency in the Bond Fund as established by the Bond
Resolution; second, to supplement
the six hundred thousand dollars ($600,000) payment into the Reserve Fund for
Contingencies, Renewals and Replacements provided for in Section 4(a)(2) to
the extent that withdrawals
from said reserve in the previous Contract Year exceeded six hundred thousand
dollars ($600,000); and third, to retire
bonds issued pursuant to the Bond Resolution prior to maturity;


(5)           All
costs of producing and delivering power and energy (excluding depreciation) not
accounted for by the payments out of funds and reserves specified in the
foregoing subsections and properly chargeable to said Priest Rapids Development
in accordance with the Uniform System of Accounts, less any credits against the
said costs by reason of net revenues from other sources than the direct sale of
power, and also less any credits for interest charged during construction, all
as provided for in said Uniform System of Accounts; provided, however,
that income from interest earned on reserve funds, credited to Account
No. 525, Revenue from Sinking and Other Funds, as defined in said Uniform
System of Accounts, shall be used by the District at least annually to
accumulate and maintain the reserve funds specified in Sections 4(a)(2) and
4(a)(4) hereof, or for the retirement of Revenue Bonds issued by the District
pursuant to the Bond Resolution.


(b)           Any
payment received by the District as a result of the taking of the whole or any
portion of the output of the Priest Rapids Development by any state or federal
government agency shall be used by the District to reduce the Annual Power Costs
or to retire bonds issued pursuant to the Bond Resolution, whichever shall be
proper under the circumstance existing at the time of said taking.  It
is the intention of the parties hereto that insofar as possible the Annual Power
Costs paid by
the Purchaser shall be reduced in proportion to the loss of availability of
power and energy as a result of such taking.


(c)           Should
any amount remain in any of the funds established in connection with the Priest
Rapids Development, including working capital and all reserves, in excess of
outstanding obligations against such funds at the expiration of this contract,
there shall be refunded to the Purchaser as excess payment for power and energy
theretofore purchased a share of such remainders determined by multiplying the
total thereof by the percentage of the Priest Rapids Development Output to which
the Purchaser is entitled on October 31, 2005.




SECTION 5.
            PAYMENT FOR POWER
      SOLD.




(a)           On
or before one hundred and twenty (120) days prior to the Initial Date of
Delivery and on or before one hundred and twenty (120) days prior to the
beginning of each Contract Year thereafter, the District shall prepare and mail
to the Purchaser a pro forma statement showing:


(1)           The
Initial Date of Delivery and the dates when each then uncompleted generating
unit of the Priest Rapids Development is scheduled for completion (Not
applicable after the completion of the construction of said
Development);


(2)           A
detailed estimate of the Annual Power Costs of said Development for the
following Contract Year, provided, that the
estimate of the Annual Power Costs for any period prior to the date that eight
(8) generating units are completed, installed and continuously operating shall
be made in accordance with Section 5(h) hereof;


(3)           An
amount obtained by multiplying the estimated Annual Power Costs by the
Purchaser's Power Allocation.  This amount
(expressed in dollars) is hereinafter referred to as the "Purchaser's Estimated
Cost;"


(4)           The
amount of the equal monthly payments to be made by the Purchaser to pay said
Purchaser's Estimated Cost during said Contract Year. Said
statement shall be in lieu of the issuance of monthly bills to the Purchaser by
the District.


(b)           In
the event of the interruption or reduction of power and energy production of the
Development, resulting in the collection by the District of insurance or other
proceeds as indemnity for such interruption or reduction, the District shall
credit the Purchaser's pro-rata share of such proceeds to the Purchaser's
account to be applied toward the reduction of the Purchaser's monthly
payments.


(c)           In
the event of extraordinary receipts or payments of unusual costs substantially
affecting the Annual Power Costs during any Contract Year, the District shall
prepare and mail to the Purchaser a revised estimate of Annual Power Costs which
shall supersede the previous estimate of Annual Power Costs as a basis for the
Purchaser's monthly payments for the balance of that Contract Year.


(d)           Said
monthly payments shall be due and payable at the office of the District at
Ephrata, Washington, on the twentieth day of the month in which the Initial Date
of Delivery occurs, and the twentieth day of each month thereafter, whether or
not the Priest Rapids Development is then operating; provided, that for
the first month in which payment is due, subject to the provisions of
Section 5(h) hereof when applicable, the Purchaser may reduce said payment
to an amount equal to the Purchaser's Estimated
Cost divided by the number of days in the first Contract Year and multiplied by
the number of days in such first month during which the District makes power and
energy available hereunder.


(e)           If
payment in full is not made on or before the close of business on the twentieth
day of the month, a delayed-payment charge of two percent (2%) of the unpaid
amount due will be made.  Remittances received by mail will be
accepted without assessment of the two per cent (2%) delayed-payment charge
provided the postmark indicates the payment was mailed on or before the
twentieth day of the month.  If the twentieth day of the month is a
Sunday or a holiday, the next following business day shall be the last day on
which payment may be made without the addition of the delayed-payment
charge.  Except as to any portion of a monthly payment which may in
good faith be disputed by the Purchaser, the District may, whenever any amount
due remains unpaid subsequent to the thirtieth day after the due date and after
giving thirty (30) day's advance notice in writing, discontinue deliveries to
the Purchaser until such bill and any subsequent payments which have become due
are paid.  No such discontinuance shall relieve the Purchaser from any
of its obligations under this contract; provided, that until
the power allocation of the Purchaser has been reallocated under the provisions
of Section 21 hereof, the District shall sell the power and energy made
available by such discontinuance for the account of the Purchaser.


(f)           On
or before one hundred twenty (120) days after the end of each Contract Year the
District will submit to the Purchaser a detailed statement of the actual Annual
Power Costs for said Contract Year, based on the annual audit of the accounts of
the Priest Rapids Development provided for in Section 11 hereof, and will
compare said actual Annual Power


Costs
with the estimated Annual Power Costs for said Contract Year; provided, that the
actual Annual Power Costs for any period prior to the date that eight (8)
generating units are completed, installed and continuously operating shall be
computed in accordance with Section 5(h) hereof.  If said actual
costs exceed said estimated costs, the District shall bill the Purchaser for an
amount equal to such excess multiplied by the Purchaser's Power Allocation for
said Contract Year, and the Purchaser agrees to pay said bill
promptly.  If said actual costs are less than said estimated costs,
the District shall give credit to the Purchaser against the current charges for
power of an amount equal to such difference between said actual costs and said
estimated costs multiplied by the Purchaser's Power Allocation for said Contract
Year; provided,
that if said comparison is made following the expiration of this contract, the
District shall make a cash refund of such amount to the Purchaser.


(g)           The
District shall pay into the Revenue Fund established by the Bond Resolution that
share of the Annual Power Costs of the Priest Rapids Development determined by
multiplying said Annual Power Costs by the percentage of the Priest Rapids
Output reserved by the District in accordance with Section 3(b)
hereof.  Payments by the District as specified in this
Section 5(g) shall be made by the District out of revenues from the sale of
its reserved share of the Priest Rapids Development Output specified in
Section 3(b) hereof.


(h)           During
the period of construction of said Development, after the completion of the
first generating unit, the estimated Annual Power Costs from which the
Purchaser's Estimated Cost is computed and the actual Annual Power Costs from
which adjustments specified in Section 5(d) are computed shall be
determined by adding:


(1)           All
of the costs included in subsections (a) (3) and (a)(5) of Section 4
not properly chargeable to construction; and


(2)           That
proportion of the amount required to pay the interest on the Revenue Bonds for
the Contract Year, that the number of generating units completed, installed and
continuously operating bears to the number 8.




SECTION 6.
            SCHEDULING OF
      DELIVERIES.




It is the
intent of the parties hereto that the power and energy purchased hereunder by
the Purchaser shall be fully coordinated with other resources available to the
Purchaser and with the resources of other Purchasers and that the operation of
the Priest Rapids Development shall be coordinated with the operation of the
Northwest Power Pool.  Scheduling of generation from said Development
shall be as requested by the Purchaser, acting singly or as a member of a group
of Purchasers, subject to the limitations set forth in this section and in other
sections of this contract.


The
Purchaser, acting singly or as a member of a group of Purchasers, shall make
available to the District at least eight (8)  hours before 12:01 A.M.
of each day an hourly schedule of desired total energy deliveries for that
day.  Such schedule shall be based upon the probable water supply to
said Development and the resulting probably output.  Revisions in the
schedule may be made at any time upon the request of the Purchaser if required
by changes in estimated river flows or system loads.  Deviations from
schedules for the Priest Rapids Development Output shall be held to a minimum by
the District and corrected for as promptly as possible on an hourly basis under
conditions as nearly equivalent as


possible
to those obtaining when the deviations occurred.


The
schedules requested by the Purchaser shall be in accordance with the
following:


(a)           The
net hourly schedule for delivery or spill shall be within the limitations of the
Purchaser's Power Allocation and the Purchaser's allocation of the minimum
discharge;


(b)           The
Purchaser shall be entitled to a share of that part of the Priest Rapids
Development Output resulting from the inflow of the stream each hour determined
by multiplying said part of said Development Output by the Purchaser's Power
Allocation;


(c)           The
Purchaser shall be entitled to a share of the pondage available at the Priest
Rapids Development (hereinafter called the Purchaser's Allocation of Pondage),
determined by multiplying the total of said pondage available by the Purchaser's
Power Allocation;


(d)           The
Purchaser may schedule more or less than its share of said Development Output
determined in accordance with subsection 6(b) hereof by scheduling from or
to a pondage account established for each Purchaser.  The aggregate
amount of the energy scheduled from the pondage account shall not exceed the
Purchaser's Allocation of Pondage determined in accordance with
subsection 6(c) hereof and shall subsequently require the scheduling of an
equivalent amount of energy to the account for refill by 7:00 A.M. on the
following Monday.  Scheduling by the Purchaser to its pondage account
shall be only against its prior accumulated pondage draft.  Refill
obligations shall be reduced proportionately when the inflow of the stream
exceeds the hydraulic capacity of the Development and will be cancelled when

members cannot agree upon the appointment of a third person, then such third
person shall be appointed by the Chief Justice of the Supreme Court of the State
of Washington.


The
procedure for arbitration shall be governed by the laws of the State of
Washington.  Insofar as the parties hereto may legally do so, they
agree to abide by the decision of said board; provided, that the District shall
not be bound by any decision of a board of arbitration to the extent that such
decision is retroactive beyond the date when the matter arbitrated was made the
subject of written recommednation of the Committee.


(e)           The
matters which may be arbitrated in accordance with Section 13(d) hereof
shall consist of all matters pertaining to the maintenance, operation,
additions, replacements and renewals, insurance to be carried on said
Development and its operation (which in no event shall be less than that
required under the terms of the Bond Resolution), and subsequent financing and

      FACILITIES.




(a)           From
time to time during the term hereof the District may propose to expand the
Priest Rapids Development by installing additional generating
facilities.  Whenever the District proposes to so expand the
Development, it shall give notice in writing or such intent to the Purchaser
stating:


(1)           The
estimated cost of such additional generating facilities;


(2)           The
proposed method of financing the cost of said facilities;


(3)           The
estimated additional power and energy which would be available as a result of
the installation of said facilities;


(4)           The
estimated incremental cost (i.e. the costs which will be incurred as a result of
installing the proposed additional facilities, which costs would not be incurred
were such proposed additional facilities not installed) of said additional power
and energy on an annual basis; and


(5)           The
estimated construction period for the installation of said
facilities.


The
notice shall also contain other available pertinent information.


(b)           The
Purchaser shall have the option of purchasing a share of said additional power
and energy determined by multiplying the total additional power and energy by
the Purchaser's Power Allocation, specified in Section 3 hereof, and may
exercise such option by giving written notice to the District on or before the
expiration of ninety (90) days from the receipt of said written notice from
the District.  The District shall give a second notice to the
Purchaser if any of the other Purchasers shall fail to exercise its option for
its full share of said power and energy, and the Purchaser may, by giving
written notice to the District within sixty (60) days after the receipt of
the second notice from the District, have its respective share of said power and
energy increased either in proportion or, as shall be mutually agreed upon, so
as to make available to the Purchaser and to the other Purchasers power and
energy available as a result of any of the other Purchasers failing
to elect to take its full share of said additional power and energy; provided, that such
increases shall not be inconsistent with the provisions of said Public Law 544
and said Federal Power Commission License concerning the offering of a
reasonable amount of the capacity and power output of the Project for sale in
states neighboring the State of Washington.  The District, in addition
to its share of said additional power and energy determined by multiplying the
total amount of said additional power and energy by the per cent reservation
specified in Section 3(b) hereof, shall be entitled to the additional power
and energy which the Purchaser and other Purchasers shall not elect to take in
accordance with the foregoing provision.  Failure to exercise its
option to purchase additional power and energy which would be available from the
installation of additional generating facilities proposed for installation by
the District at a later date.


(c)           If
the Purchaser exercises its option to take its share of said additional power
and energy, it shall pay for said additional power and energy a percentage of
the incremental annual cost of said additional facilities corresponding to the
per cent the share of additional power and energy which it purchases is to the
total additional power and energy available as the result of the installation of
the additional facilities.  If the Purchaser does not elect to take
additional power and energy which would be available from the installation of
additional generating facilities it shall continue to receive the same amount of
power and energy and pay the same annual power cost therefor as if such
additional generating facilities had not been installed.


(d)           If,
after the Purchaser shall have exercised its option as aforesaid, the District
shall determine that it is not economically feasible for it to
install additional generating facilities as proposed, the District shall be
under no obligation to do so and shall so notify the Purchaser.


(e)           Notwithstanding
any other provisions of Section 19, hereof, whenever the District is
compelled to install additional facilities at or in the Priest Rapids
Development by any order or decision of the Federal Power Commission or any
state or federal government agency with authority to issue or make and enforce
such an order or decision, the Purchaser shall share the benefits and costs
resulting from the installation of said additional facilities in the same manner
and to the same extent as if the Purchaser had voluntarily exercised its option
to purchase the power and energy resulting from said installation as provided
earlier in Section 19 hereof.





SECTION 20.
            WANAPUM
      DEVELOPMENT.




(a)           Whenever
the District proposes to construct the Wanapum Development, it shall give notice
in writing of its proposal to the Purchaser nine (9) months in advance of the
proposed start of construction.  Such notice shall supplement the
information made available to the Purchaser in accordance with Section 12
hereof and shall state:


(1)           The
estimated Cost of Acquisition and Construction of the Wanapum
Development;


(2)           The
proposed method of financing said Cost of Acquisition and Construction of the
Wanapum Development;


(3)           The
estimated additional power and energy which would be available as a result of
the construction of the Wanapum Development;


(4)           The
estimated cost of said additional power and energy on
an annual basis; and


(5)           The
estimated dates of starting and completing the construction of the Wanapum
Development.


The
notice shall contain any other available pertinent information.


(b)           As
a part of the consideration for the execution of this contract, the Purchaser
shall have the option of purchasing a share of the additional power and energy
resulting from the construction of the Wampum Development, determined by
multiplying the total of such additional power and energy by the Purchaser's
Power Allocation specified in Section 3 hereof, and shall exercise such
option by giving written notice to the District on or before ninety (90) days
from the receipt of said written notice from the District.  The
District shall give a second notice to the Purchaser if any of the other
Purchasers does not elect to take its full share of said additional power and
energy and the Purchaser may, by giving written notice to the District within
sixty (60) days after receipt of the second notice from the District, have its
respective share of said power and energy proportionately increased, or
increased as shall be mutually agreed upon, so as to make available to the
Purchaser and other Purchasers power and energy available as a result of any of
the other Purchasers failing to elect to take its full share of said additional
power and energy; provided, that such
increases shall not be inconsistent with the provisions of said Public Law 544
and said Federal Power Commission License concerning the offering of a
reasonable amount of the capacity and power output of the Project for sale in
states neighboring the State of Washington.  The District, in addition
to its share of said additional power and energy available as a result of the
construction of the Wanapum Development, determined by multiplying the total
amount of said additional
power and energy by the per cent reservation specified in Section 3(b)
hereof, shall be entitled to the additional power and energy which the Purchaser
and other Purchasers shall not elect to take in accordance with the foregoing
provision.


(c)           If
the Purchaser exercises its option to purchase additional power and energy to
become available as a result of the construction of the Wanapum Development, the
parties hereto shall execute a contract identical in all pertinent respects to
this contract for the sale of the power from the Priest Rapids Development
except that it shall refer to the Wanapum Development instead of to the Priest
Rapids Development.  The Purchaser and the District shall place in
escrow the executed contract by means of escrow instructions identical in all
pertinent respects to Exhibit "B" attached hereto and made a part
hereof.


(d)           It
is the intention of the parties hereto that when the Wanapum Development is
constructed, its operation shall be integrated with the operation of the Priest
Rapids Development as required by said Public Law 544 and said Federal Power
Commission License for the Priest Rapids Project.  It is agreed that
all benefits accruing to the Project as a result of such integration shall be
shared equally by the two Developments.  It is also agreed that all
joint costs of the two Developments shall be equitably allocated between them
and such allocation shall be reviewed by the Advisory Committee as provided in
Section 13 hereof.  All payments for the encroachment of the
Wanapum Development upon the Rock Island project (i.e. that project constructed
under Federal Power Commission License Number 943) shall be chargeable solely to
the Wanapum Development.


(e)           The
parties hereto agree that if operation of the Priest Rapids Development with the
maximum controlled headwater level of 486.5 feet above mean sea level
(determined by reference to the United States Coast and Geodetic Survey Sea
Level Datum of 1929 with supplemental additions of 1947) causes encroachment on
the tailwater of the Wanapum Development, located at or upstream from the
location shown on the License application drawings which were filed with the
Federal Power Commission by the District on June 27, 1955 (approximately
mile 415 on the Columbia River), the Priest Rapids Development shall
compensate the Wanapum Development in kind and coincidentally for one-half of
the loss to the Wanapum Development of capacity and power output.  The
Priest Rapids Development shall compensate the Wanapum Development in kind and
coincidentally for all loss of capacity and power output at the Wanapum
Development caused by controlled headwater levels above said level of
486.5 feet at the Priest Rapids Development.  If the Wanapum
Development is located downstream from the location shown on the said License
application drawings, it shall be compensated in kind and coincidentally for
losses of capacity and power output due to encroachment by the Priest Rapids
Development only to the extent that such encroachment would have occurred at the
location shown on the said application drawings.




SECTION 21.
            ADJUSTMENT OF POWER
      ALLOCATION.




The
Purchaser's Power Allocation shall be automatically increased pro-rata with that
of the other Purchasers, not in excess of a cumulative maximum of twenty-five
per cent (25%) thereof, in the event of a Default (as hereinafter defined) by
any of the other Purchasers.  The term "Default" as used herein shall
mean the filure by any one of the Purchasers to make the payments specified in
Section 5 hereof and contemporaneously with said


failure
to make payments there shall exist, with respect to that one of the Purchasers,
any one or more of the following conditions:


(a)           An
