         AGREEMENT made this 3rd day of December 1999 between AES RED OAK URBAN
RENEWAL CORPORATION, a corporation organized and existing under the Laws of the
State of New Jersey ("Red Oak URC") and the BOROUGH OF SAYREVILLE, a municipal
corporation in the County of Middlesex, State of New Jersey (the "Borough").

         WHEREAS, Red Oak URC has entered, or is about to enter, into a
twenty-five year ground lease with the owner of real property shown and

<PAGE>

         WHEREAS, Red Oak URC is an "Urban Renewal Corporation" within the
meaning and intent of N.J.S.A. 40A:20-5, qualified under the Long Term Tax
Exemption Law (N.J.S.A. 40A:20-1 ET SEQ.) to acquire, construct, operate and
maintain a project under the provisions therefor; and

         WHEREAS, Red Oak URC desires to undertake a project on the Premises
under and pursuant to the provisions of the Redevelopment Plan and the Long Term
Tax Exemption Law; and

         WHEREAS, Red Oak URC, absent the availability of the property tax
treatment provided herein under the provisions of the Long Term Tax Exemption
Law, would not otherwise have gone forward with the project; and

         WHEREAS, the Borough, in accordance with Section 11 of the Long Term
Tax Exemption Law (N.J.S.A. 40A:20-11), finds that the relative benefits of the
project, to the redevelopment of the redevelopment area, exceed the costs, if
any, associated with the tax exemption; and

         WHEREAS, the Borough, in accordance with Section 11 of the Long Term
Tax Exemption Law (N.J.S.A. 40A:20-11), finds that the tax exemption to be
granted is necessary in obtaining the development of the project; and

willing to grant approval for tax exemption and

<PAGE>

the payment of service charges in lieu of real property taxes, as provided
herein;

         NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants contained
herein and for other good and valuable consideration, it is hereby agreed as
follows:

        1. GOVERNING LAW. This Agreement shall be governed by the provisions of
the Long Term Tax Exemption Law.

        2. APPROVAL. The Borough hereby grants its approval to Red Oak URC for
the erection on the Premises of the project described in the Application
submitted herewith (the "Project").

        3. COMPLIANCE WITH LAWS. Red Oak URC agrees to comply in all respects
with all applicable statutes, municipal ordinances and regulations governing
the use of the Premises and the erection of improvements thereon.

        4. TAX EXEMPTION. All improvements erected or installed upon the
Premises in respect to the Project shall be exempt from local property taxation
in accordance with the provisions of N.J.S.A. 40A:20-11.

        5. TERM. This agreement shall have a term of twenty (20) years from the
date of the completion of the Project, provided that Red Oak URC and the

equal to two percent (2%) of the total project cost calculated in accordance
with N.J.S.A. 40A:20-3h. The project cost, as estimated in the Application
submitted herewith ("Application"), is Forty Million Dollars ($40,000,000),

                  (a) FIRST STAGE. The first stage of the exemption period shall
commence with the commencement of payment of the service charge as provided in
paragraph 7.(a) below, and continue for the first 15 years of the exemption
period. During this first stage, the service charge shall be 2% of the total
project cost calculated in accordance with N.J.S.A. 40A:20-3h.

                  (b) SECOND STAGE. The second stage of the exemption period
shall be for years 16 and 17 of the exemption period. During this second stage,
the service charge shall be 2% of the

                                       4

<PAGE>

total project cost calculated in accordance with N.J.S.A. 40A:20-3.h., or 20% of
the amount of taxes otherwise due on the value of the land and improvements,
whichever shall be greater.

                  (c) THIRD STAGE. The third stage of the exemption period shall
be for year 18 of the exemption period. During this third stage, the service

                                       5

<PAGE>

        7. PAYMENT OF SERVICE CHARGES.

                  (a) COMMENCEMENT. Service charges shall be payable quarterly
with the first payment due on the first day of the month following substantial
completion of the Project (which for purposes hereof shall be the date on which
a certificate of occupancy is issued by the Borough Code Enforcement Official
pursuant to application by Red Oak URC), and subsequent payments due at three
(3) month intervals in a manner consistent with the Borough's tax collection
schedule and in accordance with N.J.S.A. 40A:20-12.b. Service charges shall be
paid to cover the period commencing with completion of the Project (as
aforesaid), and the obligation to pay service charges shall terminate on the
expiration date of this Agreement, or such date on which this Agreement earlier
terminates in accordance with the provisions hereof. Such service charges shall
be appropriately prorated for the first and last payments under this Agreement.

                   (b) MINIMUM ANNUAL SERVICE CHARGE. Notwithstanding the
provisions of this Financial Agreement and in accordance with N.J.S.A.
40A:20-12.b., the minimum annual service charge shall be the amount of the total
taxes levied against all real property in the area covered by the Project in the
last full tax year in which the area was subject to taxation, and the minimum
annual service charge shall be paid in each year in which the annual

                                       6

<PAGE>

service charge calculated pursuant to this Financial Agreement would be less
than the minimum annual service charge.

                   (c) DATE OF PAYMENT - CREDIT. The service charge shall be
payable in quarterly installments as provided in Section 7(a) above. Against the
annual service charge, Red Oak URC shall be entitled to a credit for the amount,
without interest, of the real estate taxes on land paid by it in the last four
preceding quarterly installments as provided by N.J.S.A. 40A:20-12.b.

                   (d) LATE PAYMENT PENALTIES AND INTEREST. If any quarterly
payment of service charges is paid late by Red Oak URC, Red Oak URC shall be
subject to the same interest and penalties due to the Borough as if the
delinquent service charge were delinquent Borough real estate taxes.

        8. LIMITATION OF PROFITS. During the term of this Agreement, as long as
the improvements located on the Premises are exempt from real property taxation,
Red Oak URC shall be subject to a limitation on its profits and the dividends
payable by it, in compliance with the provisions of N.J.S.A. 40A:20-15. In the
event the net profits of Red Oak URC for any fiscal year shall exceed the
allowable net profit for such period, Red Oak URC shall, within ninety (90) days
after the end of such fiscal year, pay such excess profit to the municipality as
an additional service charge. In computing excess profit, if any, payable

                                       7

<PAGE>

hereunder, the definition of "net profit" as contained in N.J.S.A. 40A:20-3c is
incorporated herein by reference. In addition, Red Oak URC and the Borough agree
that for purposes of determining "net profit" as defined in N.J.S.A.
40A:20-3.c., the total project costs shall be amortized over the life of the
improvements, which the parties agree is twenty-five (25) years. In determining
"net profit", gross revenue shall be as follows: (i) Insurance Premiums of
$200,000; (ii) Maintenance costs of $280,000; (iii) Rent of $2,650,000, which
results in total gross revenue of $3,130,000.

        9. AUDITOR'S REPORTS. Within ninety (90) days following the close of
each fiscal year under this Agreement, Red Oak URC shall submit its auditor's
reports for the preceding fiscal year to the Mayor, Governing Body of the
Borough and the Director of the Division of Local Government Services in the
Department of Community Affairs. Such reports shall be prepared in accordance
with generally accepted accounting principles and shall be certified by a
certified public accountant.

        10. INSPECTION. Red Oak URC shall, upon request by the Borough or its
duly authorized officials permit inspection of property, equipment, buildings,
and other facilities of Red Oak URC and also permit examination and audit of its
books, contracts, records, documents and papers.

                                       8

<PAGE>

         11. TERMINATION. Red Oak URC, at any time after the expiration of one
year from the completion date of the Project, may relinquish its status as an
urban renewal corporation in accordance with N.J.S.A. 40A:20-13 and terminate
any rights it may have to the tax exemption provided herein. Notice of such
election shall be given to the Borough in writing and shall specify a date
certain as of which Red Oak URC has relinquished its status hereunder. As of the
date so specified, the tax exemption, services charges, profit and dividend
restrictions shall terminate.

         12. EXCESS PROFIT UPON TERMINATION. Upon any termination of such tax
exemption, obligations and restrictions, whether by affirmative action as
provided in Paragraph 11 above, by the provisions of the Long Term Tax Exemption
Law or the provisions of this Agreement, for purposes of computing any excess
profits which may be due, the date of such termination shall be deemed to be the
end of the fiscal year of Red Oak URC. Within ninety (90) days thereafter, Red
Oak URC shall pay to the Borough a sum equal to the amount of the reserve, if
any, maintained pursuant to N.J.S.A. 40A:20-15, as well as the excess profit, if
any, payable by reason of the treatment of such date as the end of a fiscal
year.

        13. SALE OF PROJECT. The Borough consents to a sale of the Project by
Red Oak URC to any other urban renewal entity organized under the Long Term Tax
Exemption Law; provided that such entity owns no other project at the time of
the transfer and that, upon assumption of Red Oak URC's obligations under this
Agreement, the tax exemption of the improvements as herein provided shall
continue in effect and inure to the benefit of the transferee urban renewal
entity.

        14. MANAGEMENT OF PROJECT. Red Oak URC represents that its lessee, a
related party, intends to operate the Project as an energy generation facility
and that it has extensive experience in the management and operation of such
facilities.

        15. PROJECT COST - FINANCING. The estimated total project cost is
$40,000,000. A credit facility to lend the funds for construction of the Project
will be provided to Red Oak URC by various financial institutions and/or Red Oak
LLC (the "Lenders"), or Red Oak LLC, through its contractor, will construct the
Project for the account of Red Oak URC. The interest charge on the construction
financing is included in the estimated total project cost. Red Oak LLC will

                   (d) Red Oak URC will enter into a sublease with Red Oak LLC
for a term of twenty-five years (the "Sublease"). Pursuant to the Sublease Red
