This Agreement shall become effective, if and only if, the Closing occurs and shall be effective as of the Closing Date.

The Parent, the Board of Directors of the Company (the "Board") and the Board of Directors of EEMC have determined that it is in the best interests of the Parent, the Company and EEMC, respectively, that the Executive continue his employment as a member of the management of the Company and of EEMC following the Closing Date.

The Executive is willing to commit himself to serve the Parent, the Company and EEMC, on the terms and conditions herein provided.

The Parent is willing to agree to cause the Company and EEMC to perform all of their obligations under this Agreement.

In order to effect the foregoing, the Parent, the Company, EEMC and the Executive wish to enter into an employment agreement on the terms and conditions set forth below, and the Parent wishes to agree to cause the Company and EEMC to perform their obligations under this Agreement as set forth below.  Accordingly, in consideration of the premises and the respective covenants and agreements of the parties herein contained, and intending to be legally bound hereby, the parties hereto agree as follows:

1.      Defined Terms. The definitions of capitalized terms used in this Agreement, unless otherwise defined herein, are provided in the last Section hereof.

2.      Employment. EEMC hereby agrees to employ the Executive, and the Executive hereby agrees to serve the Company and EEMC, on the terms and conditions set forth herein, during the term of this Agreement (the "Term").

3.      Term of Agreement. The Term will commence on the Closing Date and ends on the second year anniversary thereof, unless further extended to the third year anniversary of the Closing Date by mutual written agreement of the parties hereto or if earlier the Date of Termination.

4.      Position and Duties. The Executive shall serve as Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer of the Company and President and Chief Executive Officer of EEMC and shall have such responsibilities, duties and authority that are consistent with such positions as may from time to time be assigned to the Executive by the Board or the Parent.  The Executive shall devote substantially all his working time and efforts to the business and affairs of the Company and its subsidiaries and affiliates; provided, however, that the Executive may also serve on the boards of directors and as the chairman of the board of directors of Associated Electric and Gas Services Limited and, as long as such service does not substantially interfere with the performance of his duties hereunder, and are consistent with the Company's Corporate Governance Guidelines, may also serve on the boards of directors or trustees of other companies and organizations.

5.      Compensation and Related Matters.

5.1    Base Salary. EEMC shall pay the Executive a base salary ("Base Salary") during the period of the Executive's employment hereunder, which shall be at an initial rate of Nine Hundred Thousand Dollars ($900,000.00) per annum. The Base Salary shall be paid in substantially equal bi-weekly installments, in arrears. The Base Salary may be discretionarily increased by the Board in consultation with the Parent from time to time as the Board deems appropriate in its reasonable business judgment. The Base Salary in effect from time to time shall not be decreased during the Term. During the period of the Executive's employment hereunder, the Board shall conduct an annual review of the Executive's compensation.  Compensation of the Executive by Base Salary payments shall not be deemed exclusive and shall not prevent the Executive from participating in any other compensation or benefit plan of the Company. The Base Salary payments (including any increased Base Salary payments) hereunder shall not in any way limit or reduce any other obligation of the Company or EEMC hereunder, and no other compensation, benefit or payment hereunder shall in any way limit or reduce the obligation of EEMC to pay the Executive's Base Salary hereunder.

5.2    Annual Bonus.  For each of the first two calendar years ending during the Term of this Agreement, and through which the Executive is employed under this Agreement, the Executive shall be paid an annual bonus with a target annual bonus opportunity equal to 100% of annual Base Salary and a maximum annual bonus opportunity equal to 200% of annual Base Salary (the "Annual Bonus") (assuming, in the case of the first such calendar year, no annual bonus payments have been made prior to the Closing Date in respect of performance for such first calendar year).  The amount of Annual Bonus paid shall be based upon the level of attainment of goals to which the Company and the Executive mutually agree.  For each succeeding calendar year, any part of which this Agreement is in effect, the Executive shall be paid an Annual Bonus equal to 100% of the Executive's annual Base Salary multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of days in such calendar year this Agreement is in effect and the denominator of which is 365; provided, however, that if this Agreement is in effect for the entire third calendar year or any full succeeding calendar year, the Executive's Annual Bonus for such year shall be paid pursuant to the first two sentences of this Section 5.2, without proration.  Each calendar year's Annual Bonus shall be paid within the 2 1/2 month period following the end of such calendar year.

5.3    Benefit and Long-Term Incentive Plans. The Executive shall be entitled to participate in or receive compensation and/or benefits, as applicable, under all "employee benefit plans" (as defined in section 3(3) of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended from time to time ("ERISA")) other than nonqualified pension benefit plans and all employee benefit arrangements made available by the Company now or during the period of the Executive's employment hereunder to its and its subsidiaries executives, subject to and on a basis consistent with the terms, conditions and overall administration of such plans and arrangements; provided, however, that there shall be no duplication of the compensation and benefits created by this Agreement; and further provided that on and after the Closing Date, the Executive shall no longer accrue benefits under the Company's Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan (the "SERP") or Excess Benefit Plan.  Pursuant to an election made by the Executive, the Company shall pay to the Executive a single lump sum payment in satisfaction of all benefits under the SERP and Excess Benefit Plan in an amount equal to the December 31, 2006 actuarially determined value of $21,786,794.00.

Pursuant to the Executive's participation in the long term incentive plan, by March 1 of each calendar year during the Term, the Executive shall receive an annual grant of equity or cash equivalent to be established by the Company with a minimum value of $2,500,000.00based upon and subject to the attainment of the performance objectives established by the Executive at the beginning of the preceding calendar year (provided that there shall be no duplication of award for the same calendar year).

5.4    Retention Bonus.  If the Executive is employed by the Company, EMCC or any of their affiliates on the first annual anniversary of the Closing Date, the Executive shall be paid a retention bonus of Nine Hundred Thousand Dollars ($900,000.00).  If the Executive is employed by the Company, EMCC or any of their affiliates on the second annual anniversary of the Closing Date, the Executive shall be paid an additional retention bonus of Nine Hundred Thousand Dollars ($900,000.00).  If the Term of this Agreement is extended for a third year pursuant to Section 3 hereof, and the Executive is employed by the Company, EMCC or any of their affiliates on the third annual anniversary of the Closing Date, the Executive shall be paid an additional retention bonus of Nine Hundred Thousand Dollars ($900,000.00).  Each such retention bonus shall be paid in the 30 day period beginning on the applicable annual anniversary date.

If the Executive terminates employment with the Company, EMCC and all of their affiliates by reason of death or Disability prior to any year's annual anniversary, a pro-rata retention bonus shall be paid to the Executive (or his Beneficiary) based up the number of days in such anniversary year prior to the Date of Termination and no further retention bonus shall be payable to the Executive or his Beneficiary.  If the Executive is not employed by the Company, EMCC or any of their affiliates on either the first or second annual anniversary (and/or the third annual anniversary if the Term of the Agreement is extended for the third year pursuant to Section 3 hereof) and the Executive's employment was terminated by the Company, EEMC or any affiliate thereof for other than Cause, the Executive shall be paid any such unpaid first or second annual anniversary retention bonus, as the case may be, (or the third annual anniversary retention bonus if the Term of the Agreement is extended for the third year pursuant to Section 3 hereof).  Any retention bonus under this second paragraph of Section 5.2 shall be paid within 30 days of the Date of Termination.

Except as otherwise provided in this Section 5.4, if the Executive is not employed by the Company, EMCC or any of their affiliates on any annual anniversary date, no retention bonus shall be paid with respect to that annual anniversary date.

9.     Termination Procedures.

9.1    Notice of Termination.

For purposes of this Agreement, a "Notice of Termination" shall mean a notice which shall indicate the specific termination provision in this Agreement relied upon and shall set forth in reasonable detail the facts and circumstances claimed to provide a basis for termination of the Executive's employment under the provision so indicated. Further, a Notice of Termination for Cause is required to include a copy of a resolution duly adopted by the affirmative vote of not less than three-quarters (3/4) of the Board at a meeting of the Board which was called and held for the purpose of considering such termination (after reasonable notice to the Executive and an opportunity for the Executive, together with the Executive's counsel, to be heard before the Board) finding that, in the good faith opinion of the Board, the Executive was guilty of conduct set forth in clause (i) or (ii) of the definition of Cause herein, and specifying the particulars thereof in detail.

"Date of Termination," with respect to any purported termination of the Executive's employment during the Term of this Agreement, shall mean (i) if the Executive's employment is terminated by his death, the date of his death, (ii) if the Executive's employment is terminated for Disability, thirty (30) days after Notice of Termination is given (provided that the Executive shall not have returned to the fulltime performance of the Executive's duties during such thirty (30) day period), and (iii) if the Executive's employment is terminated for any other reason, the date specified in the Notice of Termination (which shall not be less than ninety (90) days (except in the case of a termination for Cause), from the date such Notice of Termination is given).

10.     Confidentiality, Noncompetition, and Nonsolicitation.

10.1    The Executive will not, during or after the Term, disclose to any entity or person any information which is treated as confidential by the Company or any of its subsidiaries or affiliates and is not generally known or available in the marketplace, and to which the Executive gains access by reason of his position as an employee or director of the Company or any of its subsidiaries or affiliates (each, an "EE Entity").

10.2    If, at any time prior to the end of the Term, the Executive terminates his own employment (and not in connection with his Disability, Retirement or death) or the Company terminates his employment with Cause, then for a twelve-month period immediately following his Date of Termination, the Executive shall not, except as permitted by the Company upon its prior written consent, enter, directly or indirectly, into the employ of or render or engage in, directly or indirectly, any services to any person, firm or corporation within the "Restricted Territory," which is a major competitor of any EE Entity with respect to products which any EE Entity is then producing or services any EE Entity is then providing (a "Competitor"). However, it shall not be a violation of the immediately preceding sentence for the Executive to be employed by, or render services to, a Competitor, if the Executive renders those services only in lines of business of the Competitor which are not directly competitive with the primary lines of business of any EE Entity, or are outside of the Restricted Territory. For purposes of this Section 10.2, the "Restricted Territory" shall be the states of Connecticut, Maine, Maryland, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, New Jersey, New York, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island and Vermont.

Failure of the Company or EEMC to obtain such assumption and agreement prior to the effectiveness of any such succession shall be a breach of this Agreement.  The Parent is a beneficiary of the benefits of this Agreement and shall cause EEMC and Company to fully perform their obligations hereunder.

11.2    This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by the Executive's personal or legal representatives, executors, administrators, successors, heirs, distributees, devisees and legatees. If the Executive shall die while any amount would still be payable to the Executive hereunder (other than amounts which, by their terms, terminate upon the death of the Executive) if the Executive had continued to live, all such amounts, unless otherwise provided herein, shall be paid in accordance with the terms of this Agreement to the executors, personal representatives or administrators of the Executive's estate.

12.     Notices.
