                  NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the representations,
warranties, covenants and agreements contained herein, the parties hereto agree
as follows:

                  1. Homer City hereby unconditionally and irrevocably assigns,
transfers and conveys to Collateral Agent all of Homer City's rights, title and
interests in, to and under the Assigned Agreements. Notwithstanding such assign
ment, Homer City shall remain solely and exclusively liable for all duties and
obligations under or with respect to the Assigned Agreements subject to the
provi sions of Section 2 below.

                  2. (a) Subject to paragraphs (b) and (c) of this Section 2,
the Collateral Agent, solely on behalf of the Owner Lessors, hereby assumes and
agrees to perform, effective as of the earliest date on which all of the
Facility Leases have terminated in accordance with their respective terms (the
"LESSOR POSSESSION DATE"), all of the duties and obligations of Homer City under
the Assigned Agreement incurred on or after the Lease Possession Date.

                  (1) (i) Prior to the Lessor Possession Date, the Collateral
Agent shall have no obligation or liability under the Assigned Agreement and
(ii) in no event shall the Collateral Agent have any liability for liabilities
accruing prior to the Lessor Possession Date.

                  (2) The provisions of this Section 2 notwithstanding, upon the
occurrence of the Lessor Possession Date, the Owner Lessors shall have the
option to terminate any Assigned Agreement in accordance with its terms,


                                       2
<Page>

whereupon such agreement shall terminate and any and all liabilities thereunder
(including, without limitation, with respect to such termination) shall remain
the sole obligation of Homer City, other than liabilities that are attributable
to the actions or omissions of the Collateral Agent or the Owner Lessors taken
in connection with such termination or this Assignment Agreement. The Owner
Lessors may exercise such option by written notice to Homer City, EMEFS, and/or
EMMT, as applicable, at any time prior to the 30th day after the Lessor
Possession Date.

                  3. This Assignment Agreement shall remain in effect unless and
until each of the Facility Site Leases have been terminated in accordance with
their terms, whereupon each of the assignments provided for in Section 1 above
shall terminate.

                  4. The Consenting Parties hereby consent to the assignment of
the Assigned Agreements and approve the execution by Homer City of the Assign
ment Agreement, and acknowledge that no further consents, acknowledgments, or
approvals of any kind shall be required for the effectiveness of the assignments
contemplated hereby.

                  5. The parties hereto expressly acknowledge and approve the
sub-assignment agreement executed by the Collateral Agent and Homer City
simultaneously herewith whereby the Collateral Agent will sub-assign of all its
rights, title, and interest in the Assigned Agreements to Homer City for so long
as any of the Facility Leases are in effect, such term to be extended in
accordance with the provisions governing extension of the term of the Facility
Leases, and remaining in effect unless and until all of the Facility Leases may
be terminated in accordance with their terms.

                  6. All of the terms of this Assignment Agreement shall be
binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective
successors and assigns, including without limitation each of the Owner Lessors.
The rights and duties of the Owner Lessors hereunder shall be determined based
upon their respective Owner Lessor's Percentages.

                  Notwithstanding the foregoing, in order to secure the Lessor
Notes of each Owner Lessor, such Owner Lessor will assign and grant a first
priority security interest in favor of its applicable Lease Indenture Trustee in
and to all of such Owner Lessor's right, title and interest in, to and under
this Agreement (other than to the extent relating to Excepted Payments and the
rights to enforce and collect the same). Each of the parties hereto hereby
consents to such assignment and to the creation of


                                       3
<Page>


such Lien and security interest and acknowledges receipt of copies of the Lease
Indenture, it being understood that such consent shall not affect any
requirement or the absence of any requirement for any consent of such party
under any other circumstances. Unless and until the Collateral Agent shall have
received written notice from the Lease Indenture Trustee that the Lien of the
applicable Lease Indenture has been fully discharged, the applicable Security
Agent shall have the right (i) to directly receive for application in accordance
with the terms of the applicable Lease Indenture all amounts payable or
otherwise distributable under this Agreement to the applicable Owner Lessor
(other than in respect of the Excepted Payments) and (ii) to exercise the rights
of such Owner Lessor under this Agreement (other than with respect to Excepted
Payments and the rights to enforce and collect the same) to the extent set forth
in and subject to the exceptions set forth in the applicable Lease Indenture.

                  7. The Collateral Agent is executing this Agreement on behalf
of the Owner Lessors solely in its capacity as collateral agent under the
Ownership and Operation Agreement and not in its individual capacity and in no
case shall the Collateral Agent (or any successor entity acting as collateral
agent under the Owner ship and Operation Agreement) be personally liable for or
on account of any of the statements, representations, warranties, covenants or
obligations hereunder, all such liability, if any, being expressly waived by the
parties hereto and any Person claiming by, through, or under such party.

                  8. This Assignment Agreement shall be governed by and
construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York without reference
to choice of law principles (except Section 5-1401 of the New York General
Obliga tions Law), including all matters of construction, validity and
performance.
