     District:

     (1) Pursuant to Section 5.
     (2) If the District is unable to deliver the Product to the Purchaser due
         to Uncontrollable Forces.
     (3) If failure to reduce deliveries, together with deliveries to all other
         Purchasers and deliveries to the District, would result in exceeding
         Priest Rapids Project Output or subject it or its operation to undue
         hazard or violate the FERC License, any applicable law, regulation, or
         Operating Agreement.
     (4) In case of emergencies or in order to install equipment in, make

     governed by the provisions of Exhibit 1.

(b)  The treatment of metering, transmission losses and Points of Delivery of
     the Product provided hereunder shall be governed by the provisions of
     Exhibit 1.

(c)  Unless otherwise provided in Exhibit 1, title to and risk of loss for the
     Product provided hereunder shall reside with the District until such
     Product reaches the Point of Delivery, at which time risk of loss and
     title to such Product shall reside with the Purchaser.

SECTION 7. PAYMENT FOR PRODUCT.
(a)  The District shall provide to Purchaser for each Product provided
     hereunder as specified in Exhibit 1, either a pro forma annual statement of
     estimated Product costs, or a monthly invoice for the costs of the Product
     made available to the Purchaser in the preceding month.

(b)  The monthly payments set forth in the pro forma annual statement of
     estimated Product costs shall be due and payable by Purchaser by electronic
     funds transfer to the District's account, designated in writing by the
     District, on the 20th calendar day of each month. The payment of monthly
     invoices by Purchaser shall be due and payable by electronic funds transfer
     to the District's account, designated in writing by the District, on the
     20th calendar day after the date of issuance of the monthly invoice.

(c)  If payment in full of any monthly payment amount set forth on a pro forma
     annual statement or a monthly invoice is not received by the District on or
     before the due date as set forth in Subsection 7(b), a delayed payment
     charge of 2% of the unpaid amount due will be made. Any bill which remains
     unpaid for more than 30 days after the due date shall, in addition to the
     delayed payment charge, accrue interest at the lesser of 1.5% per month or
     the maximum rate allowed by law. If the due date as set forth in Subsection
     7(b) is a Saturday, Sunday or a District recognized holiday, the next
     following business day shall be the last day on which payment may be
     received without the addition of the delayed-payment charge. Additionally,
     if payment due to the District under this Section 7 remains unpaid 30 days
     after the due date, the District may thereafter suspend delivery of
     Products to the Purchaser which would otherwise occur until payment in full
     of all amounts due and owing (including any interest and delay charges) is
     received by the District.

(d)  For Products that are billed on a pro forma annual statement of estimated
     Product costs, on or before 180 days after the end of each Contract Year,
     the District will either credit against estimated Product costs due from
     Purchaser in the then current Contract Year, or bill to Purchaser, the
     true-up amount, if any, as determined pursuant to the provisions of
     Exhibit 1;

                                      -3-

<PAGE>
     provided, that if a refund of costs are due to Purchaser following the
     expiration of this Agreement, the District shall make a cash refund of such
     amount to the Purchaser.

(e)  In the event that the Purchaser in good faith disputes a monthly invoice,
     Purchaser shall pay the amount of the monthly invoice in full and designate
     in writing to the District on or before the due date the portion of the
     monthly invoice that is subject to the dispute. The Parties shall in good
     faith attempt to resolve such dispute. If upon the final resolution of such
     dispute, whether by agreement of the Parties or otherwise, payment of all
     or any portion of the disputed amount is due to the Purchaser, such
     payment amount shall include interest on the amount to be paid to the
     Purchaser, calculated from the date of payment by Purchaser to the date of
     payment to Purchaser, using the Interest Rate.

(f)  If a payment due from Purchaser to the District pursuant to this Section 7
     is due and unpaid for a period of sixty (60) days or more, the District
     may terminate this Agreement by providing to the Purchaser written notice
     of such termination not less than ten (10) days prior to the date of
     termination.

SECTION 8. LIABILITY OF PARTIES.

(a)  Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, each Party hereby releases
     the other Party and its commissioners, officers, directors, agents and
     employees from any claim for loss or damage arising out of the ownership,
     operation, and maintenance of the Priest Rapids Project including any loss
     of profits or revenues, loss of use of power system, cost of capital, cost
     of purchased or replacement power, other substantially similar liability
     or other direct or indirect consequential loss or damage, except as
     provided in the Agreement Limiting Liability Among Western Interconnected
     Systems for parties to that agreement. This release shall not include any
     claim by the Purchaser for refunds for over-payments made to the District
     nor any claim for specific performance of the District's obligation to
     deliver to the Purchaser during the term of this Agreement the Products to
     which the Purchaser is entitled under this Agreement.

(b)  The Purchaser shall have no claim of any type or right of action against
     the District: (i) as a result of a FERC or court order or amendment; (ii)
     as a result of the failure to receive an Annual FERC License or a
     New FERC license or the adjustment of delivery of Priest Rapids Products
     pursuant to Section 5(c) whether arising under the terms of this Agreement
     or otherwise; and the Purchaser hereby releases the District and its
     commissioners, officers, agents and employees from any claim for loss or
     damage arising out of the events described in this paragraph.

unreasonably withheld; provided, however, a Party may, without the consent of
the other Party (and without relieving itself from liability hereunder) (i)
transfer or assign this Agreement to an affiliate of the Party provided that the

transfer or assign this Agreement to any person or entity succeeding to all or

     observance or performance by the other Party of any of the provisions of
     this Agreement, or to exercise any right or remedy provided for in this
     Agreement shall not impair any such right or remedy nor be construed as a
     waiver or relinquishment thereof for the future. Receipt by the District

                                   EXHIBIT 1

                          NON-FIRM GENERATION PRODUCT
                   (AND EXCHANGE FOR LOAD FOLLOWING PRODUCT)

Except as otherwise provided in this Exhibit 1 or in the Agreement, terms used
herein with initial capitalization shall have the meanings set forth in Section
2 of the Priest Rapids Project Product Sales Contract.

1. NON-FIRM GENERATION PRODUCT DESCRIPTION

The Non-Firm Generation Product is a portion of the non-firm energy available to
the District from the Priest Rapids Project as and when such energy is
available, as determined by the District.

2. PURCHASERS SHARE OF NON-FIRM GENERATION PRODUCT

The District will make available Purchaser's Share (defined below) of the
Non-Firm Generation Product that the District determines is available each day
during the term of this Agreement in accordance with this Exhibit 1. The
Purchaser's Share shall be the Purchaser's percent participation in the 1956
Contract divided by 63.5% from November 1, 2005 through October 31, 2009 after
which it shall be the average of the Purchaser's participation in the 1956 and
1959 Contracts divided by 63.5%.

As part of the pro forma statement provided to Purchaser pursuant to Section
5(b) of the Priest Rapids Project Product Sales Contract, the District shall
provide to Purchaser an estimate for the next Contract Year of the amount of
Priest Rapids Project Non-Firm Generation by month that the Priest Rapids
Project is expected to produce based on information available at the time such
estimate is prepared.

3. AVAILABILITY OF NON-FIRM GENERATION PRODUCT

The Non-Firm Generation Product will be available commencing November 1, 2005.

The amount of Non-Firm Generation Product for each day is the Project Non-Firm
Generation for such day multiplied by a percentage equal to 100% less the sum of
all Purchaser Power Allocations from all of the Priest Rapids Project Product
Sales Contracts, less the Reasonable Portion and less 36.5%. For purposes of
such calculation, Project Non-Firm Generation is the actual energy generation
(in mwhrs) of the Priest Rapids Project Output less the product of firm energy
calculated pursuant to Section 5(b)(2) of the Priest Rapids Project Product
Sales Contract, distributed on a shaped basis over each day, and a factor of
1.08 for Monday through Friday, and a factor of 0.8 for Saturdays and Sundays.
In the event that the calculation of Project Non-Firm Generation is less than
zero, the actual Non-Firm Generation will be zero.

For example: If firm energy is 250 mw and actual generation is 300 mw, then
Project Non-Firm

                                      1-1

<PAGE>

Generation on Monday through Friday would be 300-(250*1.08)=30 mw. Project
Non-Firm Generation on Saturday and Sunday would be 300-(250*0.8)=100 mw.

The District will estimate the Purchaser's Non-firm Generation Product on a
daily preschedule basis according to available data ("Estimated Purchaser's
Non-firm"). On Monday through Saturday, such schedule shall be delivered with
the same amount of megawatt-hours delivered in Heavy Load Hours as in Light Load
Hours. On Sundays, such schedule shall be delivered in equal hourly amounts over
all 24 hours. On an after-the-fact basis, the District will compute the amount
of Purchaser's Non-firm and will maintain a deviation account to track the
difference in the daily Estimated Purchaser's Non-firm and the actual
Purchaser's Non-firm. Positive and negative balances in the deviation account
will be used to adjust the daily Estimated Purchaser's Non-firm that is
delivered on a preschedule basis. Positive and negative balances will carry
through from month to month.

Preschedule deliveries to Purchasers will be reduced or eliminated in realtime
in the event of a contingency that reduces or eliminates the District's ability
to generate the daily Estimated Purchaser's Non-firm at the Priest Rapids
Project.

4. PRICING AND PAYMENT

For each Contract Year during the term of this Agreement, the Purchaser shall
pay the District in twelve equal monthly installments the product of the
estimated Annual Power Cost contained in the pro forma statement prepared
pursuant to Section 7(a) of the Priest Rapids Project Product Sales Contract and
the ratio of Purchaser Estimated Non-Firm to the average total generation of the
Priest Rapids Project estimated pursuant to the Operating Agreements. The pro
forma statement provided to purchaser pursuant to Section 7(a) of the Priest
Rapids Project Product Sales Contract shall separately set forth the Purchaser's
estimated monthly payment obligation for Non-Firm Generation Product for the
next Contract Year.

The payments made by Purchaser for the Non-Firm Generation Product on an
estimated basis will be trued up to actual values not later than 150 days after
end of each Contract Year using actual Annual Power Costs prepared pursuant to
Section 7(g) of the Priest Rapids Project Product Sales Contract, and actual
metered amounts of Non-Firm Generation Product. Any amounts due to Purchaser
will be credited against Purchaser's payment obligation in the then current
Contract Year, and any amounts due from Purchaser to the District will be
invoiced to Purchaser, all in accordance with such Section 7(g).

5. EXCHANGE OF NON-FIRM GENERATION PRODUCT FOR LOAD FOLLOWING PRODUCT

     (a) EXCHANGE DEFINED - The Load Following Product provides capacity and
     associated energy for short periods of time. The Purchaser then returns the
     same amount of energy within 168 hours.

     Upon notice to the District by January 1, 2003, the Purchaser may make a
     one-time irrevocable exchange of their entire share of Non-Firm Generation
     Product for Load

                                      1-2

<PAGE>
     Following Product on the basis of 1.5 megawatts of Load Following Product
     for each megawatt of Non-Firm Generation Product. For the purpose of this
     calculation of this exchange the Project Non-firm Generation shall be
     calculated pursuant to Operating Agreements based on the average historical
     river flows.

     The total amount exchanged by all Purchasers shall not exceed the Monthly
     Maximum Load Following Product defined below which shall be allocated on a
     first come first served basis. The Purchaser's Share of Load Following
     Product will be the ratio of the number of megawatts of Non-firm Generation
     Product exchanged by an individual Purchaser to the total exchanged by all
     Purchasers.

     (b) AVAILABILITY - The Load Following Product will be available commencing
     November 1, 2005. Load Following Product will be available only after all
     other obligations of the Priest Rapids Project, including but not limited
     to, meeting and following the District's loads, meeting commercial
     arrangements entered into prior to this Agreement, requirements of
     Operating Agreements, meeting regulatory requirements, and after accounting
     for water conditions and the status of the Priest Rapids Project.
     Notwithstanding the table below the amount of Load Following Product will
     be reduced if the District is unable to meet these obligations or if it
     would otherwise be forced to the market to buy Load Following Product.

     The monthly Maximum Load Following Product will be 50 megawatts from
     November 2005 through October 31, 2009 or 100 megawatts after October 31,
     2009 and associated energy.

     On or before the tenth day preceding each month the District will identify
     to the Purchaser the estimated Monthly Minimum Load Following Product (in
     megawatts) that the District expects to be available during the next month,
     but will not be less than the firm amounts shown below.

     Each day, the District shall provide the Purchaser with the Daily Load
     Following Product (in megawatts) that the District determines will be
     available for the subsequent preschedule day or days. The actual Daily Load
     Following Product shall be between the Monthly Minimum Load following
     Product and the Monthly Maximum Load Following product.

     The Purchaser's Load Following Product shall be the lesser of the amount of
     Load Following Product exchanged pursuant to Section 5a of this Exhibit 1
     or the Daily Load

                                      1-3
<PAGE>
     Following Product times the Purchaser's Share.

     (c) RETURN OF ENERGY - Energy associated with the Load Following Product
     used by Purchaser shall be returned to the District in like quantities
     (hour for hour) on like days 168 hours after the delivery by the District
     to the Purchaser. Energy returned to the District shall be delivered at the
     District's Point of Delivery as specified in Section 7 of this Exhibit 1.

     If, in real-time, the District determines that Purchaser's schedule of
     return energy to the District is in excess of the estimated Purchaser's
     Load Following Product in future hours, and that such excess will cause
     spill, then District may, at its option, require the Purchaser to reduce
     its schedule. Purchaser shall reduce its schedule by such excess amount.
     Purchaser shall schedule the remaining energy to the District at the
     earliest time possible for both District and Purchaser.

     District shall meter the actual Load Following Product used to meet
     Purchasers load signal in each hour.

     (d) CHARGE FOR SPILL - The District will charge the Purchaser for any spill
     allocated to the District if it is determined by the District that such
     spill was directly attributable to the actions of the Purchaser under this
     Agreement. Such charge will equal the product of such spill (in
     megawatt-hours) and the Market Energy Rate for the daily diurnal period in
     which such spill occurred.

     Market Energy Rate shall mean the rate (in $/mwhr) at which firm energy is
     available on the wholesale power market, for quantities comparable to the
     spill caused by the actions of Purchaser, during the diurnal period that
     the spill occurred, as determined by the District.

     (e) EXCESS LOAD FOLLOWING PRODUCT AND ENERGY NOT RETURNED - In the event
     that Purchaser takes in any hour Load Following Product in excess of its
     Purchaser's Share, Purchaser shall be subject to a charge equal to 150% of
     the Mid-C Market Capacity Rate for the daily diurnal period in which the
     Load Following Product was taken times the amount of Load Following Product
     (in megawatts) taken in excess of Purchaser's Share.

     Market Capacity Rate shall mean the rate (in $/mw-mo.) as quoted by the
     Bonneville Power Administration, for quantities comparable to the Load
     Following Product made available to Purchasers, during the diurnal period
     that Purchaser took Load Following Product in excess of its Purchaser's
     Share.

     In the event that Purchaser does not return energy associated with Load
     Following Product delivered by Purchaser, then Purchaser shall be
     considered in Default pursuant to Section 22 of the Priest Rapids Project
     Product Sales Contract.

                                      1-4

                             AMENDMENT NO. 1 TO THE
                      ADDITIONAL PRODUCTS SALES AGREEMENT

     The Public Utility District No. 2 of Grant County, Washington,
("District"), and Avista Corporation ("Purchaser"), hereby agree to this
Amendment No. 1 to the Additional Products Sales Agreement dated December 12,
2001 (the "Product Agreement"). Unless otherwise defined herein, all capitalized
terms defined in the Product Agreement shall have the meanings set forth therein
when used in this Amendment.

     1. Term of Amendment No. 1

     This Amendment No. 1 shall take effect on upon the execution by the
     District and Purchaser, and shall expire on the earlier of the expiration
     or termination date of the Product Agreement.

     2. Amendments to Provisions of the Product Agreement

        Purchaser and the District agree that the Product Agreement is hereby
        amended as follows:

        2.1  The first paragraph of Section 2 of Exhibit 1 is amended by adding
             after the last sentence thereof the following:

                The amount of Non-Firm Generation Product available to Purchaser
                shall equal the product of Purchaser's Share and the Non-Firm
                Generation Product.

        2.2  The second paragraph of Section 3 of Exhibit 1 is deleted in its
             entirety and is replaced with the following:

                The amount of Non-Firm Generation Product for each day is the
                Project Non-Firm Generation for such day multiplied by a
                percentage equal to 100% less the sum of all Purchaser Power
                Allocations from all of the Priest Rapids Project Product Sales
                Contracts, less the Reasonable Portion and less 36.5%. For
                purposes of such calculation, Project Non-Firm Generation shall
                be the actual energy generation (in mwhrs) of the Priest Rapids
                Project Output less the firm energy calculated pursuant to
                Section 5(b)(2) of the Priest Rapids Project Product Sales
                Contract, times the shaping factors described below. For
                example, based on current operating requirements of the Priest
                Rapids Project, the Project Firm Generation is distributed on a
                shaped basis over the week, using a factor of 1.08 for Monday
                through Friday, and a factor of 0.8 for Saturdays and Sundays.
                These factors will be changed by the District to reflect changes
                in operating constraints

Additional Products Sales Agreement
Amendatory Agreement No. 1

                                      -1-
<PAGE>
               applicable to the Priest Rapids Project. In the event that the
               calculation of Project Non-firm Generation is less than zero,
               there will be no obligation on the part of the Purchaser to
               schedule Non-Firm Generation Product back to the District, but
               such negative amount will be included in the deviation account.

     2.3  The third paragraph of Section 3 of Exhibit 1 is deleted in its
          entirety and is replaced with the following:

               For example: Assume that flows during the week are 324 MW and
               that flows during the weekend are 240 MW. If firm energy
               (critical generation) is 250 MW then Project Non-Firm Generation
               on Monday through Friday would be 324-(250*1.08)=54 MW times 24
               hours =1,296 MWh for each weekday. The amount of power scheduled
               during the weekend would be 240-(250*0.8)=40 MW times 24 hours =
               960 MWh for each weekend day.

     2.4  The fourth and fifth sentences of the fourth paragraph of Section 3 of
          Exhibit 1 are revised as follows:

               Whenever they appear in such sentences, the phrase "Estimated
               Purchaser's Non-Firm" is revised to read "Estimated Purchaser's
               Non-Firm Generation Product", and the phrase "Purchaser's
               Non-Firm" is revised to read "Purchaser's Non-Firm Generation
               Product".

     2.5  The second paragraph of Section 5(a) of Exhibit 1 is deleted in its
          entirety and is replaced with the following:

               Upon notice to the District by January 1, 2003, the Purchaser may
               make a one-time irrevocable exchange of their entire share of
               Non-Firm Generation Product for Load Following Product on the
               basis of 1.5 megawatts of Load Following Product for each average
               annual megawatt of Non-Firm Generation Product. For the purpose
               of the calculation of this exchange, the Project Non-firm
               Generation shall be calculated pursuant to Operating Agreements
               based on the average historical river flows.

               For purposes of determining Purchaser's entitlement to Load
               Following Product, the exchange ratio set forth above shall be
               applied to the amount of Non-Firm Generation Product initially
               available to Purchaser hereunder, but such ratio shall be applied
               in subsequent years to any increased amount of Non-Firm
               Generation Product to which the Purchaser would have been
               entitled absent its election hereunder.

     2.6  Section 5 of Exhibit 1 is amended by adding a new subsection 5(f) as
          follows:

               If the one-time exchange has been made as provided in this
               section 5, Purchaser's compensation to the District for the Load
               Following Product shall be limited to the return of energy and
               the charges set forth in Sections 5(c), (d) and (e). Purchaser
               shall not be required to pay to the District as compensation for
               the Load Following Product any portion of the Annual Power Costs
               of the Priest Rapids Project pursuant to section 4 of this
               Exhibit 1.

     2.7  The Product Agreement is amended by adding a new Exhibit 2, Purchasers
          Product Percentage Allocations, which is attached hereto.

In Witness Whereof, Purchaser and the District have caused this Amendment No. 1
to be executed in their respective names by their duly authorized officers.

September 9, 2002

Malyn Malquist
3321 Corey Drive
Reno, NV 89509

Dear Malyn:

         This letter will confirm our recent discussions regarding my offer to
you for the position of Senior Vice President and CFO of Avista Corporation. We
have agreed that your starting date will be effective sometime in late September
2002 or early October 2002 based upon our mutual agreement. Your annual salary
in your position as Senior Vice President and CFO will be $245,000 paid in 26
biweekly increments in accordance with Avista Corporation's normal payroll
procedures. You will be eligible to participate in Avista Corporation's
Executive annual incentive plan. For year 2002, the incentive bonus potential
for the CFO position is 60% of base salary. Actual incentive bonus payout for
officers is determined based on successfully reaching the objectives identified
in each annual plan. You will be granted 50,000 non-qualified stock options upon
your hire date. This initial employment grant will vest in 25% increments
annually over a four-year period. You will also be provided with a Change in
Control Contract upon your hire date that provides you with benefit protection
as outlined in the contract in the event of a change in control.

         As an Avista Corporation employee, you and your eligible family members
will be entitled to participate in the normal benefits package offered to all
employees, including medical, vision, and dental coverage. You will also be
eligible to participate in the 401(k) plan on the enrollment date that coincides
with or immediately follows your employment date (20th of each month, effective
the first pay close in the following month).

         As an executive of the Company, you will be enrolled in the Executive
Income Continuation Plan and the Supplemental Executive Long Term Disability
Plan upon completion of your signature for these plans. You will also be
eligible to participate in the Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan, hereafter
referred to as the Plan, according to the eligibility set forth in the Plan
document. Once you have reached 5 years of service and at least age 55, you will
be eligible for the benefit under Section 4.1b of the Plan. After 5 years of
service and having reached at least age 55, you will be credited with 3 years
Vesting Service and 2 years Benefit Service for each completed year of
employment (meeting a minimum of 1000 hours of service and credited with 1/12th
of a year for every 173 1/3 hours worked up to a maximum of 12 months

<PAGE>

credited per year). The Early Retirement Reduction Factors (ERRF) for retirement
from active service as described in the Retirement Plan for Employees of Avista
Corporation will be utilized in determining the benefit payable from the Plan.
No benefits will be payable from the Plan if you terminate with fewer than 5
years of service. You will become eligible to participate in the Retiree Medical
Plan after five years of service, as defined above, and having reached at least
age 55. Upon meeting eligibility, you will participate at the 15-year employment
level to determine the appropriate Company contribution and premium caps.

         To assist with your move to Spokane, Avista will provide you with a
relocation coordinator and cover the reimbursable amounts of the actual costs of
your relocation up to a mutually agreed upon level. The Company will pay for
reasonable expenses for one round trip between Reno and Spokane, including
airfare, lodging, and meals in connection with a house-hunting trip of up to
seven days in duration for you and your spouse. The Company will also pay for
reasonable temporary living expenses for a period of up to 90 days for food,
lodging, and rental car, if necessary, upon arrival in Spokane. To facilitate an
earlier start date, the company will reimburse you for the cost of your weekend
travel between Reno and Spokane for up to three months until your family can be
moved.

         You will receive 33 days of one leave (crediting you for 24 years of
service) immediately upon employment, which can be used in accordance with
Avista Corporation policy guidelines. After your one-year anniversary, your one
leave will be accumulated on an accrual basis each pay period based upon 25
years of service. For the purpose of calculating your one leave accrual, you
will be granted an additional year of service for each year worked with Avista
Corporation.

         Please note that acceptance of this offer does not create a contract of
continuing employment at Avista Corporation. Your employment with Avista
Corporation is on an at-will basis; either you or Avista Corporation may
terminate the employment relationship at any time for any reason not expressly
prohibited by law. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that, at any time
prior to your completing 5 years of full employment with Avista Corporation, the
Company chooses to relieve you from your position, other than for cause or an
actual Change in Control event, you will be entitled to receive severance
benefits as described herein. This provision becomes null and void upon your
fifth year employment anniversary. For purposes of this offer letter, Cause
shall mean (i) any act of personal dishonesty taken by you in connection with
your responsibilities as an employee which is intended to result in your
personal enrichment, (ii) your conviction of a felony, (iii) any act by you that
constitutes material misconduct and is injurious to Avista Corporation, or (iv)
continued violations by you of your obligations to Avista Corporation. In the
event of a Change in Control, your Change of Control contract takes precedent
and this severance benefit is not payable.

         Based upon the circumstances outlined in the preceding paragraph
occurring, you would be entitled to receive continuing severance payments (less
applicable withholding taxes) at a rate equal to your current base salary as
then in effect, for a period of one year from the date of such termination, to
be paid periodically in accordance with Avista Corporation's normal payroll
policies. The company will also continue to provide you with regular company
medical health benefits for the period of the first three months of your
severance. After three months, you could

<PAGE>

elect to participate in COBRA coverage at which time you would be responsible
for paying the full monthly premium associated with the coverage you elected.

         As a condition of employment, you will be required to sign a
Confidentiality, Non-Solicitation, Invention and Non-Compete Agreement. This
letter and the Confidentiality, Non-Solicitation, Invention and Non-Compete
Agreement set forth the terms of your employment with Avista Corporation and
supersede any prior representations or agreements whether written or oral. This
letter may not be modified or amended except by a written agreement signed by
the CEO and Chairman of Avista Corporation and you.

         In the event of any dispute or claim relating to or arising out of our
employment relationship, you and Avista Corporation agree that (i) any and all
such disputes will be fully and finally resolved by binding arbitration
conducted by the American Arbitration Association in Spokane County, Washington,
(ii) you are waiving any and all rights to a jury trial, but all court remedies
will be available in arbitration, (iii) all disputes will be resolved by a
neutral arbitrator who will issue a written opinion, (iv) the arbitration will
provide for adequate discovery, and (v) each of you and Avista Corporation will
pay one half of the costs and expenses of such arbitration and each of you and
Avista Corporation will separately pay your respective counsel fees and
expenses. However, we agree that this arbitration provision will not apply to
any disputes or claims relating to or arising out of the misuse or
misappropriation of Avista Corporation's proprietary information.

         I am looking forward to you joining Avista Corporation, and I have full
confidence that your background and experience will assist you in making a
significant contribution to the financial and strategic direction of our
Company. If you are in agreement with the general terms outlined in this letter,
I ask that you sign and return the original letter to me as soon as possible.

Sincerely,

/s/ Gary G. Ely

Gary G. Ely
CEO and Chairman of the Board of Directors
Avista Corporation
