The parties agree to amend Section 3 (Rent) of the Lease by substituting the

        "Except as otherwise provided by the IRB Lease, all alterations,
        additions and improvements to the Facilities shall immediately, upon
        completion thereof, be and become the property of Tenant for the
        duration of this Lease; provided, however, that upon termination of this
        Lease, Tenant shall sell to Landlord and Landlord shall purchase from
        Tenant all such alterations, additions and improvements at the then
        current book value of such alterations, additions and improvements.
        Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the foregoing, with respect
        to alterations, additions and improvements made by Tenant during the
        Initial Term, the purchase price to be paid by Landlord to Tenant shall
        in no event exceed * ."

as provided in Section 5.01(e) hereof.

          (b)  If
an event occurs which has the effect of materially altering and
materially adversely impacting the economic position of the Parties
or either of them under this Agreement, then the affected Party
may, by written notice, request that the Commission approve
amendments to this Agreement or other arrangements incidental to
this Agreement as necessary to preserve or restore the economic
position under this Agreement held by the affected Party
immediately prior to such event.  Such notice shall describe
the event and shall include reasonable particulars as to the manner

constitute "Events of Default" under this Agreement:

(b)  any material failure by Utility to schedule and
dispatch Contracts, consistent with the principles set forth in
Exhibit A; or

          
(c)  any failure (except as provided in (a) or (b)) by a

covenant or agreement of such Party set forth in this Agreement,
which failure continues unremedied for a period of 15 calendar days
after written notice of such failure has been given to such Party
by the non-defaulting Party; or

          
(d)  any material representation or warranty made by a
Party shall prove to be false, misleading or incorrect in any
material respect as of the date made; or

          
(e)  an Event of Default (as defined under the Servicing
Arrangement) shall have occurred and is continuing under the
Servicing Arrangement.

          
Section 7.02. Consequences of Utility Event of
Default.  Upon any Event of Default by Utility, DWR may,
in addition to exercising any other remedies available under this
Agreement or under Applicable Law, (i) terminate this

whom such waiver is claimed gives such waiver in writing.  The
failure of either Party to insist in any one or more instances upon
strict performance of any of the provisions of this Agreement or to
take advantage of any of its rights hereunder shall not be
construed as a waiver of any such provisions or the relinquishment
of any such rights for the future, but the same shall continue and
remain in full force and effect.  Waiver by either Party of
any default by the other Party shall not be deemed a waiver of any
other default.

other action by such Party, and that this Agreement constitutes
such Party's legal, valid and binding obligation, enforceable
against such Party in accordance with its terms.

          
(c)     DWR represents and warrants that all
necessary and appropriate notices, inducements, undertakings,
approvals, and consents have been obtained from each Supplier to
the Contract allocated to Utility in order for Utility to undertake

fashion.

LIMITATIONS ON LIABILITY

          Section
10.01. Consequential Damages. In no event will either Party
be liable to the other Party for any indirect, special, exemplary,
incidental, punitive, or consequential damages under any
theory.  Nothing in this Section 10.01 shall limit either
Party's rights as provided in Article VII above.

          Section
10.02. Limited Obligations of DWR. Any amounts payable by
DWR under this Agreement shall be payable solely from moneys on
deposit in the Department of Water Resources Electric Power Fund
established pursuant to Section 80200 of the California Water Code
(the "Fund"). 

          Section
10.03.  Sources of Payment; No Debt of State. 
DWR's obligation to make payments hereunder shall be limited solely
to the Fund and shall be payable as an operating expense of the
Fund solely from Power Charges subject and subordinate to each
Priority Long Term Power Contract in accordance with the priorities
and limitations established with respect to the Fund's operating
expenses in any indenture providing for the issuance of Bonds and
in the Rate Agreement and in the Priority Long Term Power
Contracts.  Any liability of DWR arising in connection with
this Agreement or any claim based thereon or with respect thereto,
including, but not limited to, any payment arising as the result of
any breach or Event of Default under this Agreement, and any other
payment obligation or liability of or judgment against DWR
hereunder, shall be satisfied solely from the Fund.  NEITHER
THE FULL FAITH AND CREDIT NOR THE TAXING POWER OF THE STATE OF
CALIFORNIA ARE OR MAY BE PLEDGED FOR ANY PAYMENT UNDER THIS
AGREEMENT. Revenues and assets of the State Water Resources
Development System, and Bond Charges under the Rate Agreement,
shall not be liable for or available to make any payments or
satisfy any obligation arising under this Agreement.  If
moneys on deposit in the Fund are insufficient to pay all amounts
payable by DWR under this Agreement, or if DWR has reason to
believe such funds may become insufficient to pay all amounts
payable by DWR under this Agreement, DWR shall diligently pursue an
increase to its revenue requirements as permitted under the Act
from the appropriate Governmental Authority as soon as
practicable.  To the extent DWR's obligations are
"administrative costs," they will require annual appropriation by
the legislature.

          Section
10.04. Cap on Liability.  In no event will Utility be
liable to DWR for damages under this Agreement, including
indemnification obligations, whether in contract, warranty, tort
(including negligence), strict liability or otherwise (referred to
as "Damages" for purposes of this Section), in an amount in excess
of: 1) on an annual calendar year basis, $5 million plus ten
percent of Damages in excess of $5 million and 2) for the entire
term of this Agreement, $50 million in total payments of Damages to
DWR.  For example, if Damages for an event are $100 million,
Utility's total liability for this event would be $14.5 million ($5
million plus10% of $95 million) and that would be the full extent
of Utility's liability for such Damages.  All Damages
associated with an event will apply only to the annual limit in the
first year in which Damages for that event were assessed.  For
example, if Damages for an event were paid as follows: $15 million
in year 1 and $10 million in year 2, the Utility would pay DWR $7
million ($5 million plus10% of $10 million for year 1 and 10% of
$10 million for year 2).  In this example, the $1 million paid
to DWR in year 2 (10% of $10 million) does not count against the
year 2 $5 million calendar year threshold.  DWR hereby
releases Utility from any liability for Damages in excess of the
limitations on liability set forth in this Section 10.04, provided
however, that this limitation on Utility liability shall not apply
to the extent the liability is a result of Utility's gross
negligence or willful misconduct.

CONFIDENTIALITY

           
Section 11.01.  Proprietary Information.

          
(a)   Nothing in this Agreement shall affect Utility's
obligations to observe any Applicable Law prohibiting the
disclosure of Confidential Information regarding its
customers.

          
(b)   Nothing in this Agreement, and in particular
nothing in Sections 11.01(e)(x) through 11.01(e)(z) of this
Agreement, shall affect the rights of the Commission to obtain from
Utility, pursuant to Applicable Law, information requested by the
Commission, including Confidential Information provided by DWR to
Utility. Applicable Law, and not this Agreement, will govern what
information the Commission may disclose to third parties, subject
to any confidentiality agreement between DWR and the
Commission.

          
(c)   The Parties acknowledge that each Party may acquire
information and material that is the other Party's confidential,
proprietary or trade secret information.  As used herein,
"Confidential Information" means any and all technical, commercial,
financial and customer information disclosed by one Party to the
other (or obtained from one Party's inspection of the other Party's
records or documents), including any patents, patent applications,
copyrights, trade secrets and proprietary information, techniques,
sketches, drawings, maps, reports, specifications, designs,
records, data, models, inventions, know-how, processes, apparati,
equipment, algorithms, software programs, software source
documents, object code, source code, and information related to the
current, future and proposed products and services of each of the
Parties, and includes, without limitation, the Parties' respective
information concerning research, experimental work, development,
design details and specifications, engineering, financial
information, procurement requirements, purchasing, manufacturing,
business forecasts, sales and merchandising, and marketing plans
and information.  In all cases, Confidential Information
includes proprietary or confidential information of any third party
disclosing such information to either Party in the course of such
third party's business or relationship with such Party. 
Utility's Confidential Information also includes any and all lists
of customers, and any and all information about customers, both
individually and aggregated, including but not limited to
customers' names, street addresses of customer residences and/or
facilities, email addresses, identification numbers, Utility
account numbers and passwords, payment histories, energy usage,
rate schedule history, allocation of energy uses among customer
residences and/or facilities, and usage of DWR Power.  All
Confidential Information disclosed by the disclosing Party
("Discloser") will be considered Confidential Information by the
receiving Party ("Recipient") if identified as confidential and
received from Discloser.

          
(d)   Each Party agrees to take all steps reasonably
necessary to hold in trust and confidence the other Party's
Confidential Information.  Without limiting the generality of
the immediately preceding sentence, each Party agrees (i) to hold
the other Party's Confidential Information in strict confidence,
not to disclose it to third parties or to use it in any way,
commercially or otherwise, other than as permitted under this
Agreement; and (ii) to limit the disclosure of the Confidential
Information to those of its employees, agents or directly related
subcontractors with a need to know who have been advised of the
confidential nature thereof and who have acknowledged their express
obligation to maintain such confidentiality.  DWR shall not
disclose Confidential Information to employees, agents or
subcontractors that are in any respect responsible for power
marketing or trading activities associated with the State Water
Resources Development System.

          
(e)   The foregoing two paragraphs will not apply to any
item of Confidential Information if:  (i) it has been
published or is otherwise readily available to the public other
than by a breach of this Agreement; (ii) it has been
rightfully received by Recipient from a third party without breach
of confidentiality obligations of such third party and outside the
context of the provision of services under this Agreement;
(iii) it has been independently developed by Recipient
personnel having no access to the Confidential Information;
(iv) it was known to Recipient prior to its first receipt from
Discloser, or (v) it has been summarized, processed and
incorporated for incorporation into reports, discussions,
statements or any other further work product.   In addition,
Recipient may disclose Confidential Information if and to the
extent required by law or a Governmental Authority, provided that
(x) Recipient shall give Discloser a reasonable opportunity to
review and object to the disclosure of such Confidential
Information, (y) Discloser may seek a protective order or
confidential treatment of such Confidential Information, and (z)
Recipient shall make commercially reasonable efforts to cooperate
with Discloser in seeking such protective order or confidential
treatment.  Discloser shall pay Recipient its reasonable costs
of cooperating.

          Section
11.02.  No License.  Nothing contained in this
Agreement shall be construed as granting to a Party a license,
either express or implied, under any patent, copyright, trademark,
service mark, trade dress or other intellectual property right, or
to any Confidential Information now or hereafter owned, obtained,
controlled by, or which is or may be licensable by, the other
Party.

          Section
11.03.  Survival of Provisions.  The provisions of
this Article XI shall survive the termination of this
Agreement.

RECORDS
AND AUDIT RIGHTS

          Section
12.01.  Records.  Utility shall maintain accurate
records and accounts relating to the Contracts in sufficient detail
to permit DWR to audit and monitor the functions to be performed by
Utility on behalf of DWR, as its limited agent, under this
Agreement.  In addition, Utility shall maintain accurate
records and accounts relating to DWR Revenues to be remitted by
Utility to DWR, consistent with the Settlement Principles for
Remittances and Surplus Revenues set forth in Exhibit C
hereto.  Utility shall provide to DWR and its Assign(s) access
to such records.  Access shall be afforded without charge,
upon reasonable request made pursuant to Section 12.02. 
Access shall be afforded only during Business Hours and in such a
manner so as not to interfere unreasonably with Utility's normal
operations.  Utility shall not treat DWR Revenues as income or
assets of Utility or any affiliate for any tax, financial reporting
or regulatory purposes, and the financial books or records of
Utility and affiliates shall be maintained in a manner consistent
with the absolute ownership of DWR Revenues by DWR and Utility's
holding of DWR Revenues in trust for DWR (whether or not held
together with other monies).

          Section
12.02.  Audit Rights. 

          (a)  
Upon 30 calendar days' prior written notice, DWR may request an
audit, conducted by DWR or its agents (at DWR's expense), of
Utility's records and procedures, which shall be limited to records
and procedures containing information bearing upon Utility's
performance of its obligations under this Agreement.  The
audit shall be conducted during Business Hours without interference
with Utility's normal operations, and in compliance with Utility's
security procedures.

          
(b)   As provided in the Act, the State of California
Bureau of State Audits (the "Bureau") shall conduct a financial and
performance audit of DWR's implementation of Division 27
(commencing with Section 80000) of the California Water Code, and
the Bureau shall issue a final report on or before March 31,
2003.  In addition, as provided in Section 8546.7 of the
California Government Code, Utility agrees that, pursuant to this
Section 12.02, DWR or the State of California Department of
General Services, the Bureau, or their designated representative
("DWR's Agent") shall have the right to review and to copy (at
DWR's expense) any non-confidential records and supporting
documentation pertaining to the performance of this Agreement and
to conduct an on-site review of any Confidential Information
pursuant to Section 12.03 hereof.  Utility agrees to maintain
such records for such possible audit for three years after final
Remittance to DWR.  Utility agrees to allow such auditor(s)
access to such records during Business Hours and to allow
interviews of any employees who might reasonably have information
related to such records.  Further, Utility agrees to include a
similar right for DWR or DWR's Agent to audit records and interview
staff in any contract between Utility and a subcontractor directly
related to performance of this Agreement.

          Section
12.03.  Confidentiality.  Materials reviewed by
either Party or its agents in the course of an audit may contain
Confidential Information subject to Article XI above. 
The use of all materials provided to DWR or Utility or their
agents, as the case may be pursuant to this Article XII, shall
comply with the provisions in Article XI and shall be limited
to use in conjunction with the conduct of the audit and preparation
of a report for appropriate distribution of the results of the
audit consistent with Applicable Law.

          Section
12.04.  Annual Certifications.  At least annually,
and in no event later than the tenth Business Day after the end of
the calendar year, Utility shall deliver to DWR a certificate of an
authorized representative certifying that to the best of such
representative's knowledge, after a review of Utility performance
under this Agreement, Utility has fulfilled its obligations under
this Agreement in all material respects and is in compliance
herewith in all material respects.

          Section
12.05.  Additional Applicable Laws.  Each Party
shall make an effort to promptly notify the other Party in writing
to the extent such Party becomes aware of any new Applicable Laws
or changes (or proposed changes) in Applicable Tariffs hereafter
enacted, adopted or promulgated that may have a material adverse
effect on either Party's ability to perform its duties under this
Agreement.  A Party's failure to so notify the other Party
pursuant to this Section 12.05 will not constitute a material
breach of this Agreement, and will not give rise to any right to
terminate this Agreement or cause either Party to incur any
liability to the other Party or any third party.

          Section
12.06.  Other Information.  Upon the reasonable
request of DWR or its Assign(s), Utility shall provide to DWR or
its Assign(s) any public financial information in respect of
Utility applicable to services provided by Utility under this
Agreement, to the extent such information is reasonably available
to Utility, which (i) is reasonably necessary and permitted by
Applicable Law to monitor the performance by Utility hereunder, or
(ii) otherwise relates to the exercise of DWR's rights or the
discharge of DWR's duties under this Agreement or any Applicable
Law.  In particular, but without limiting the foregoing,
Utility shall provide to DWR any such information that is necessary
or useful to calculate DWR's revenue requirements (as described in
Sections 80110 and 80134 of the California Water Code).

          Section
12.07.  Data and Information Retention.  All data
and information associated with the provision and receipt of
services pursuant to this Agreement shall be maintained for the
greater of (a) the retention time required by Applicable Law or
Applicable Tariffs for maintaining such information, or (b) three
(3) years.

DISPUTE
RESOLUTION

          Section
13.01.  Dispute Resolution.  Should any dispute
arise between the Parties or should any dispute between the Parties
arise from the exercise of either Party's audit rights contained in
Section 12.02 hereof, the Parties shall remit any undisputed
amounts and agree to enter into good faith negotiations as soon as
practicable to resolve such disputes within (10) Business Days so
as to resolve such disputes, as appropriate, within the timeframes
provided under this Agreement, or as soon as possible
thereafter.  For any disputed Remittances, if such resolution
cannot be made before the remittance date, Utility shall remit the
undisputed portion to DWR.  In addition, the disputed portion
of the Remittances shall be deposited into an escrow account held
by a qualified, independent escrow holder.  Upon resolution of
such disputes, the Party that escrowed the disputed amount shall
reimburse the other Party from the escrow account as
necessary.

          Section
13.02.  ISO Settlements Disputes.  Utility shall
review, validate and verify all ISO charges/credits contained on
all ISO settlement statements, including any charges/credits
resulting from functions related to the Contracts to be performed
by Utility as provided in this Agreement.  Utility shall
inform DWR of any discrepancies and shall dispute any such
discrepancies with the ISO in accordance with the ISO's tariff and
protocols.  Except as provided in Section 13.03, if any ISO
charge type settlement amount appearing on a Preliminary or Final
Settlement Statement (as defined in the ISO tariff) resulting or
relating to the Utility's performance of functions related to the
Contracts under this Agreement is in dispute, it shall be the
responsibility of Utility, on behalf of DWR, as its limited agent,
to seek resolution of said dispute through the ISO dispute
resolution process as provided in the ISO's
tariff. 

          For
disputes affecting Utility's Remittances to DWR, including disputes
on ISO charges to non-DWR parties that would affect Remittances to
DWR, Utility shall provide to DWR: a) notification of submission of
the dispute through the ISO dispute resolution process,
identifying, among other items, the dispute type, quantity, price
and allocation; b) a copy of the submitted dispute and all
supporting data; and c) a copy of all ensuing documentation
resulting from the ongoing dispute resolution process. 
Utility shall track and validate all disputed ISO charges involving
any financial responsibility of DWR.

          Section
13.03.  Supplier Invoice Disputes.  DWR shall
continue to be responsible for all dispute resolution relating to
Supplier invoices.  In addition, except as specifically
provided in Exhibit E of this Agreement, all other contract
administration functions shall remain DWR's
responsibility. 

          Section
13.04.  Good-Faith Negotiations.  Should any
dispute arise between the Parties relating to this Agreement, the
Parties shall undertake good-faith negotiations to resolve such
dispute.  If the Parties are unable to resolve such dispute
through good-faith negotiations, either Party may submit a detailed
written summary of the dispute to the other Party.   Upon such
written presentation, each Party shall designate an executive with
authority to resolve the matter in dispute.  If the Parties
are unable to resolve such dispute within 30 days from the date
that a detailed summary of such dispute is presented in writing to
the other Party, then either Party may, at its sole discretion,
submit the dispute to the Commission for final
resolution. 

          Section
13.05.  Costs.  Each Party shall bear its own
respective costs and attorney fees in connection with respect to
any dispute resolution process undertaken by it pursuant to this
Article.  Provided, however, DWR shall reimburse Utility all
reasonably incurred costs, including, but not limited to, in-house
and retained attorneys, consultants, witnesses, and arbitration
costs, arising from or pertaining to all disputes relating to ISO
charges/credits contained on all ISO settlement statements
resulting from the operational, dispatch and administrative
functions related to the Contracts performed by Utility on behalf
of DWR, as its limited agent, pursuant to the standards set forth
in Section 2.02 herein and consistent with the provisions of the
ISO tariff, as may be amended from time to time, including disputes
on ISO charges to non-DWR parties that would affect Remittances to
DWR.  These costs shall be recorded and invoiced in the manner
set forth in Section 8.01 hereof.

(a)  Except as provided in paragraphs (b) (c), (d) and (e)
below, neither Party shall assign or otherwise dispose of this
Agreement, its right, title or interest herein or any part hereof
to any  entity, without the prior written consent of the other
Party.  No assignment of this Agreement shall relieve the
assigning Party of any of its obligations under this Agreement
until such obligations have been assumed by the assignee. When duly
assigned in accordance with this Section 14.01(a) and when accepted
by the assignee, this Agreement shall be binding upon and shall
inure to the benefit of the assignee.  Any assignment in
violation of this Section 14.01 (a) shall be void.

          
(b)  Utility acknowledges and agrees that DWR may assign or
pledge its rights to receive performance hereunder to a trustee or
another party ("Assign(s)") in order to secure DWR's obligations
under its bonds (as that term is defined in the Act), and any such
Assign shall be a third party beneficiary of this Agreement;
provided, however, that this authority to assign or pledge rights
to receive performance hereunder shall in no event extend to any
person or entity that sells power or other goods or services to
DWR.

          
(c)  Any person (i) into which Utility may be merged or
consolidated, (ii) which may result from any merger or
consolidation to which Utility shall be a party or (iii) which may
succeed to the properties and assets of Utility substantially as a
whole, which person in any of the foregoing cases executes an
agreement of assumption to perform every obligation of Utility
hereunder, shall be the successor to Utility under this Agreement
without further act on the part of any of the Parties to this
Agreement; provided, however, that Utility shall have delivered
to  DWR and its Assign(s) an opinion of counsel reasonably
acceptable to DWR stating that such consolidation, merger or
succession and such agreement of assumption complies with this
Section 13.01(c) and that all of Utility's obligations
hereunder have been validly assumed and are binding on any such
successor or assign.

          
(d)  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, DWR's
rights and obligations hereunder shall be transferred, without any
action or consent of either Party hereto, to any entity created by
the State legislature which is required under Applicable Law to
assume the rights and obligations of DWR under Division 27 of the
California Water Code.

          
(e)  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein,
Utility's rights and obligations under this Agreement may be

including but not limited to, unusually severe weather, flood,
fire, lightning, epidemic, quarantine restriction, war, sabotage,
act of a public enemy, earthquake, insurrection, riot, civil
disturbance, strike, restraint by court order or Government
Authority, or any combination of these causes, which by the
exercise of due diligence and foresight such Party could not
reasonably have been expected to avoid and which by the exercise of
due diligence is unable to overcome. 

          Section
14.03.  Severability.  In the event that any one
or more of the provisions of this Agreement shall for any reason be
held to be unenforceable in any respect under applicable law, such
unenforceability shall not affect any other provision of this
Agreement, but this Agreement shall be construed as if such
unenforceable provision or provisions had never been contained
herein.

          Section
14.04.  Survival of Payment Obligations.  Upon
termination of this Agreement, each Party shall remain liable to
the other Party for all amounts owing under this Agreement. 
Utility shall continue to collect and remit, pursuant to the terms
of the Servicing Arrangement and the principles provided in the
Settlement Principles for Remittances and Surplus Revenues provided

of this Agreement are exclusively for the benefit of the Parties
and any permitted assignee of either Party and there are no third
party beneficiaries under this Agreement.

          Section
14.06.  Governing Law.  This Agreement shall be
interpreted, governed and construed under the laws of the State of
California without regard to choice of law provisions.

          Section
14.07.  Multiple Counterparts.  This Agreement may
be executed in multiple counterparts, each of which shall be an
original.

          Section
14.08.  Section Headings.  Section and paragraph
headings appearing in this Agreement are inserted for convenience
only and shall not be construed as interpretations of
text.

          Section
14.09.  Amendments.  No amendment, modification,
or supplement to this Agreement shall be effective unless it is in
writing and signed by the authorized representatives of both
Parties and approved as required, and by reference incorporates
this Agreement and identifies the specific portions that are
amended, modified, or supplemented or indicates that the material
is new.  No oral understanding or agreement not incorporated
in this Agreement is binding on either of the Parties.

          Section
14.10.  Amendment Upon Changed Circumstances.  The
Parties acknowledge that compliance with any Commission decision,
legislative action or other governmental action (whether issued
before or after the Effective Date of this Agreement) affecting the
operation of this Agreement, including but not limited to (i)
dissolution of the ISO, (ii) changes in the ISO market structure,
(iii) a decision regarding direct access currently pending
before the Commission, (iv) the establishment of other
Governmental Programs, or (v) a modification to the Contract
Allocation Agreement may require that amendment(s) be made to this
Agreement.  The Parties therefore agree that if either Party
reasonably determines that such a decision or action would
materially affect the services to be provided hereunder or the
reasonable costs thereof, then upon the issuance of such decision
or the approval of such action (unless and until it is stayed), the
Parties will negotiate the amendment(s) to this Agreement that is
(or are) appropriate in order to effectuate the required changes in
services to be provided or the reimbursement thereof.  If the
Parties are unable to reach agreement on such amendments within 60
days after the issuance of such decision or approval of such
action, either Party may, in the exercise of its sole discretion,
submit the disagreement to the Commission for proposed
resolution.  Nothing herein shall preclude either Party from
challenging the decision or action which such Party deems may
adversely affect its interests in any appropriate forum of the
Party's choosing.

          The
Parties agree that, if the rating agencies request changes to this
Agreement which the Parties reasonably determine are necessary and
appropriate, the Parties will negotiate in good faith, but will be
under no obligation to reach agreement or to ask the Commission to
amend this Agreement to accommodate the rating agency requests and
will cooperate in obtaining any required approvals of the
Commission or other entities for such amendments.

          Section
14.11  Indemnification.

          
(a)  Indemnification of DWR.  Utility (the
"Indemnitor") shall at all times protect, indemnify, defend and
hold harmless DWR, and its elected officials, appointed officers,
employees, representatives, agents and contractors (each, an
"Indemnified Party" or an "Indemnitee") from and against (and pay
the full amount of) any and all claims (whether in tort, contract
or otherwise), demands, expenses (including, without limitation,
in-house and retained attorneys' fees) and liabilities for losses,
damage, injury and liability of every kind and nature and however
caused, and taxes (of any kind and by whomsoever imposed), to third
parties arising from or in connection with (or alleged to arise
from in connection with):  (1) any failure by Utility to
perform its material obligations under this Agreement; (2) any
material representation or warranty made by Utility shall prove to
be false, misleading or incorrect in any material respect as of the
date made; (3) the gross negligence or willful misconduct of
Utility or any of its officers, directors, employees, agents,
representatives, subcontractors or assignees in connection with
this Agreement; and (4) any violation of or failure by Utility
or Indemnitor to comply with any Applicable Commission Orders or
Applicable Law; provided, however, that the foregoing
indemnifications and protections shall not extend to any losses
arising from gross negligence or willful misconduct of any
Indemnified Party.

          
(b)  Obligation of Utility. Consistent with the
Contract Allocation Order, Utility shall not, in acting as limited
agent of DWR hereunder be required to perform any obligations of
any Supplier under any Allocated Contract or to make any payments
on behalf of such Supplier or as the result of the failure of such
Supplier to perform under any Allocated Contract.

          
(c)  Indemnification of Utility. To the extent
permitted by law, DWR ("Indemnitor") shall at all times protect,
indemnify, defend and hold harmless Utility, and its officers,
employees, representatives, agents and contractors (each, an
"Indemnified Party" or "Indemnitee"), from and against (and pay the
full amount of) any and all claims (whether in tort, contract or
otherwise), demands, expenses (including, without limitation,
in-house and retained attorneys' fees) and liabilities for losses,
damage, injury and liability of every kind and nature and however
caused, and taxes (of any kind and by whomsoever imposed), to third
parties arising from or in connection with (or alleged to arise
from on in connection with):  (1)  any failure by DWR to
perform its material obligations under this Agreement or any
Allocated Contract and, prior to novation, any Interim Contract;
(2) any material representation or warranty made by DWR shall prove
to be false, misleading or incorrect in any material respect as of
the date made; (3) the gross negligence or willful misconduct of
the DWR or any of its officers, directors or employees, agents,
representatives, subcontractors or assignees in connection with
this Agreement; (4) any action claiming Utility failed to perform
any Supplier's obligations under a Contract; and (5) any violation
of or failure by DWR or Indemnitor to comply with any Applicable
Law; and provided, however, that the foregoing indemnifications and
protections shall not extend to any losses arising from the gross
negligence or willful misconduct of any Indemnified
Party.

          
(d)  Indemnification Procedures.  Indemnitee shall
promptly give notice to Indemnitor of any claim or action to which
it seeks indemnification from Indemnitor.  Indemnitor shall
defend any such claim or action brought against it, and may also
defend such claim or action on behalf of the Indemnitee (with
counsel reasonably satisfactory to Indemnitor) unless there is any
actual or potential conflict between Indemnitor and Indemnitee with
respect to such claim or action.  If there is any actual or
potential conflict between Indemnitor and Indemnitee with respect
to such claim or action, Indemnitee shall have the opportunity to
assume (at Indemnitor's expense) defense of any claim or action
brought against Indemnitee by a third party; however, failure by
Indemnitee to request defense of such claim or action by the
Indemnitor shall not affect Indemnitee's right to indemnity under
this Section 14.11.  In any action or claim involving
Indemnitee, Indemnitor shall not settle or compromise any claim
without the prior written consent of Indemnitee.

          Section
14.12.  Notices and Demands.  (a) Except as
otherwise provided under this Agreement, all notices, demands, or
requests pertaining to this Agreement shall be in writing and shall
be deemed to have been given (i) on the date delivered in person,
(ii) on the date when sent by facsimile (with receipt confirmed by
telephone by the intended recipient or his or her authorized
representative) or electronic transmission (with receipt confirmed
telephonically or electronically by the intended recipient or his
or her authorized representative) or by special messenger, or
(iii) 72 hours following delivery to a United States post
office when sent by certified or registered United States mail
postage prepaid, and addressed as set forth below:

          (a) 
Each Party  shall be entitled to specify as its proper address
any other address in the United States, or specify any change to
the above information, upon written notice to the other Party
complying with this Section 14.12.

          
(b) Each Party shall designate on Attachment A the person(s) to be
contacted with respect to specific operational matters.  Each
Party shall be entitled to specify any change to such person(s)
upon written notice to the other Party complying with this
Section 14.12.

          Section
14.13.  Approval.  This Agreement shall be
effective upon the execution by both Parties and approval of such
executed agreement by the Commission.  Except as expressly
provided otherwise herein, neither Party may commence performance
hereunder until such date.  Any delay in the commencement of
performance hereunder as a consequence of waiting for such
approval(s) shall not be a breach or default under this
Agreement.

          Section
14.14.  Government Code and Public Contract Code
Inapplicable.  DWR has determined, pursuant to Section
80014(b) of the California Water Code, that application of certain
provisions of the Government Code and Public Contract Code
applicable to State contracts, including but not limited to
advertising and competitive bidding requirements and prompt payment
requirements, would be detrimental to accomplishing the purposes of
Division 27 (commencing with Section 80000) of the
California Water Code and that such provisions and requirements are
therefore not applicable to or incorporated in this
Agreement.

          Section
14.15. Annual Review. The provisions of the Exhibits are
subject to annual review by DWR and Utility to ensure their
relevance and usefulness.  In the event that the Parties
mutually agree that certain provisions of the Exhibits should be
amended or supplemented, an amendment to the Exhibit should be
executed and Utility shall submit to the Commission for
approval.

          Section
14.16 Other Operating Agreement.  It is DWR's intent to
have a consistent operating agreement with all three investor-owned
utilities (IOUs).  Should DWR reach an operating agreement
with another IOU relating to the subject matter of this Agreement,
that in Utility's judgment is more favorable on the whole than this
Agreement, Utility shall have the right to receive the same terms
and conditions as such other IOU.  This provision specifically
does not allow Utility to select particular portions or provisions
of such other IOU's operating agreement.  In addition, if
Utility elects to be subject to such other IOU's operating
agreement's terms and conditions, Utility shall be subject to such
other IOU's operating agreement with only such modifications agreed
to by DWR as necessary to address operating differences between
that other IOU and Utility.  Utility shall exercise the
foregoing right within 60 days following Commission approval of
such other operating agreement.

OPERATING PROTOCOLS

Pursuant to Section 4.01
of this Agreement, on behalf of DWR as its limited agent, Utility
shall perform the day-to-day scheduling and dispatch functions,
including day-ahead, hour-ahead and real-time trading, scheduling
of transactions with all involved parties, making surplus energy
sales and obtaining relevant information for these functions such
as transmission availability and others, with respect to the
Allocated Contracts set forth in Schedule 1 to the Agreement, and,
prior to novation, the Interim Contracts set forth in Schedule 2,
all as more specifically provided below and in compliance with the
provisions of each of the Contracts:

I.           
Resource Commitment and Dispatch.  Utility agrees to
use good faith efforts to dispatch Allocated Contracts, and, prior
to novation, Interim Contracts, based on the principle of "least
cost dispatch" to retail customers, consistent with the Contract
Allocation Order and other Applicable Commission Orders. Utility
shall undertake these least cost dispatch functions both of the
Contracts and its URG so as to minimize the cost of service to
retail customers based on circumstances known or that reasonably
could have been known by Utility at the time dispatch decisions are
made.  DWR shall have no role in enforcement or review of
Utility least cost dispatch under this Agreement and all issues of
Utility compliance with least cost dispatch shall be within the
sole review of the Commission.

          A.  
Annual, Quarterly and Weekly Load and Resource Assessment
Studies.  Utility shall provide to DWR copies of its
annual and quarterly load and resource assessment studies. 
Provided that Utility submits substantially the same information to
the Commission, copies of the Commission submission will be
simultaneously sent to DWR to satisfy requirements of this
section.  In addition, Utility will provide a weekly
commitment and dispatch plan for informational purposes to DWR in
the same form that such plan is used internally.

          B.  
Scheduling Protocols.

               1.  DWR
is responsible for notifying the counter-party to each of the
Allocated Contracts that scheduling under the Allocated Contracts
will be performed by Utility before the first day that schedules
are due to be submitted by Utility.  DWR is responsible for
notifying Utility of any changes to the Allocated Contracts that it
has negotiated, including changes to the scheduling terms. 
DWR agrees to provide such notice as soon as possible following the
negotiation of any changed provisions and in any case prior to the
time that any changed provisions become effective.

               To
the extent that any of the Interim Contracts are amended or
modified by DWR or Utility, including changes to the scheduling
terms, DWR and Utility agree to provide such notice to the other
Party as soon as possible following the negotiation of any changed
provisions and in any case prior to the time that any such changed
provisions become effective.

               2.  Utility
agrees to schedule Contracts in accordance with their terms and in
accordance with the requirements of the Control Area operator or
operators with whom the Contract must be scheduled to provide for
power delivery.

II.
           
ISO Ancillary Service (AS) Market.  Among the Contracts
are resources that are or may be qualified to be bid into the ISO's
Ancillary Services ("AS") market or that Utility may use in its
self-provision of AS.  Utility is authorized to develop
protocols and procedures for the use of DWR resources for AS. 
Utility shall, upon DWR's request, provide to DWR such information
concerning Utility's intended use of DWR resources for AS as DWR
may reasonably request for planning and revenue requirement
purposes.

III.
           
Surplus Energy Sales and Energy Exchanges

          A.  
Over-generation.  If the ISO announces an 
over-generation situation Utility will  back down resources in
accordance with the ISO tariff and  Good Utility Practice. In
order to reduce the need for physical curtailment in
over-generation situations, DWR and Utility shall develop pay for
curtailment protocols and procedures that will enable Utility to
instruct a must-take resource not to deliver energy under specified
conditions. The costs and charges associated with mitigation of an
over-generation situation shall be allocated among the Parties on a
pro-rata basis consistent with the surplus sales allocation
principles set forth in Exhibit C.

          B.  
Energy Exchange Arrangements.  Existing non-DWR/CERS
exchanges and those that might be transacted post-2002, will be
considered URG exchanges. The accounting of energy necessary to
support energy exchanges is addressed in Exhibit C.

          C.  
Surplus Energy Sales Arrangement.  Utility shall on a
monthly basis prepare a sales plan addressing all surplus sales,
including without limitation sales to manage over-generation,
contemplated by the Utility for review by DWR.  Such plan
shall address sales of power from the combined portfolio of URG
resources and Allocated Contracts, which will be administered by
Utility on its own behalf and acting as DWR's limited agent. As
specified in Section 2.02 of the Agreement, Utility shall pursue
surplus sales in a fashion reasonably designed to serve the overall
best interests of retail electric customers based on information
known or could have been known by Utility at the time. 
Utility agrees to include sufficient details in the sales plans to
allow DWR to satisfy its financial management and reporting
requirements. To the extent there is surplus power uncommitted to a
forward energy surplus sales transaction, Utility shall be required
to bid such surplus energy in the day-ahead, hour-ahead or
real-time market.  Utility shall arrange for transmission
service to accommodate surplus sales to the extent that
transmission service is available and cost effective.  The
costs of transmission service, ISO charges and the costs of firm
transmission rights associated with such surplus energy sales
transactions shall be treated in accordance with the Settlement
Principles for Remittances and Surplus Revenues attached hereto as
Exhibit C.  

IV.
           
Outage Coordination and Determination of Resource Availability
of Contracts.  Utility shall communicate with the
Scheduling Coordinator of each Contract to coordinate, approve,
document and report planned Contract outages.  For those
Contracts where resource availability affects capacity payments,
Utility will use good faith efforts to verify supplier actual
resource availability, and keep records of resource availability as
reported by Supplier.  In addition, Utility shall document all
outages (forced and planned) and notices of outages of DWR contract
resources and provide such documents to DWR within five (5)
business days after the end of each calendar month.  Interim
Contracts Utility and DWR agree that the Attachments and data
requirements associated with this Agreement will be updated as
needed to incorporate the addition of new Interim Contracts entered
into after the execution date of this Agreement.

PG&E EXHIBIT B

FUEL
MANAGEMENT PROTOCOLS

EXHIBIT
B

FUEL
MANAGEMENT PROTOCOLS

Certain of the Contracts
listed on Schedule 1 of this Agreement provide DWR the option of
either (i) letting the Supplier provide the necessary natural gas
for its generating units at an index-based price or agreed upon
fixed price or (ii) DWR procuring the gas supply and causing such
supply to be delivered to the Supplier under a tolling arrangement
("Fuel Option").  Certain of the Contracts with Fuel Option
provide that DWR can decide on a monthly basis whether to procure
the gas and others provide that the decision be made annually or
semi-annually when DWR reviews the Supplier's proposed fuel
plan.

The purpose of this
Exhibit B is to describe the relationship which will exist between
DWR and Utility and the specific responsibilities of each as they
all relate to managing the natural gas provisions of the Contracts
which include Fuel Options.  Specifically, this Exhibit B will
address responsibilities for the following activities: (i)
determining types and lengths of gas contracts, (ii) nominating
deliveries, (iii) contracting for gas transportation and storage,
(iv) managing imbalances, (v) reviewing, authorizing and making
payment of gas invoices and (vi) determining and implementing hedge
strategies, as appropriate. 

I.     Operating
Relationship Between DWR and Utility

While DWR will retain
legal and financial responsibility for gas and related services,
Utility shall, as a limited agent acting for DWR, perform the
administrative and operational activities, as further specified
below, required to ensure adequate gas is supplied to Suppliers'
generating units, consistent with the tolling provisions included
in the Contracts.  The intent of this relationship is to
provide Utility sufficient flexibility and authority to execute
normal day-to-day activities associated with managing the fuel
provisions of tolling Contracts and procurement of natural gas and
related services, as a limited agent acting on behalf of DWR
without direct involvement by DWR but in a manner consistent with
Utility Gas Supply Plans which have been reviewed and approved by
DWR and the Commission. 

II.     Fuel
Activities

Consistent with the terms
of the Contracts with Fuel Options, Utility shall have
administrative and operational authority to act, as a limited
agent, for fuel supply related activities, consistent with the
following goals and guidelines whenever Utility has recommended,
and DWR has reviewed and approved such recommendation that gas for
a Contract with Fuel Option be caused to be supplied by Utility
from a list of approved providers.

           
Utility shall use reasonable commercial efforts to secure delivery
of gas in a reliable manner and consistent with gas requirements
for producing scheduled energy.

           
Utility shall develop a portfolio of gas supply for the Contracts
that contain Fuel Options and where Utility is to supply gas,
acting as limited agent on behalf of DWR, consistent with the
approved Utility Gas Supply Plans.  Such portfolio should be
diversified in terms of price mechanism, period of performance, and
gas suppliers.

           
Utility shall develop a portfolio of supply which is reasonably
priced relative to the market and in accordance with an approved
Utility Gas Supply Plan.

III.     Review of
Supplier Fuel Plans

In accordance with the
terms of each of the Contracts with Fuel Options, Utility, acting
as a limited agent on behalf of DWR, shall review each fuel plan
prepared and submitted by the Supplier, and forwarded to the
Utility by DWR, and determine whether to recommend (i) approval of
the Supplier Fuel Plan and authorization for the Supplier to
provide gas to its generating unit(s), or (ii) procurement and
management of gas supplies to the generating unit(s) by
Utility.  Utility, acting as a limited agent on behalf of DWR,
shall advise DWR and the Commission on a timely basis of its
recommendation regarding responsibility for supplying natural
gas.  DWR shall, on a timely basis, review Utility's
recommendation and either approve or identify requested
changes.  Once approved, Utility shall advise the Supplier in
accordance with the time requirements included in the appropriate
Contract with Fuel Option.  In addition, for any Supplier Fuel
Plans which have been implemented and are operative as of the
Effective Date, and where DWR has previously elected to be
responsible for gas supply, Utility may advise DWR that it would
rather have Supplier provide the gas as of the Effective
Date.  DWR shall coordinate with Utility and Supplier to
revise such Supplier Fuel Plans, to the extent possible, prior to
the Effective Date.  

IV.     Fuel Procurement
Strategies

Under the Contracts with
Fuel Option, upon Utility's recommendation, and DWR's review and
approval of such recommendation, Utility will be responsible for
procuring the natural gas fuel from a list of approved gas
providers. Utility shall, acting as the limited agent of DWR, have
administrative and operational responsibility for determining its
gas procurement strategies, including but not limited to (i) types
of contracts, (ii) length of contracts, (iii) pricing terms, (iv)
use of storage, (v) types of gas transportation, (vi) delivery
point(s), (vii) whether and how to obtain gas price forecasts,
(viii) if and what risk management tools are to be used, and (ix)
how to maintain current market intelligence. 

Utility shall consolidate
these strategies and submit them to DWR and the Commission as a
"Utility Gas Supply Plan" by April 17, 2003 and, thereafter on a
semi-annual basis during the Term.  Utility may also provide a
copy of such Gas Supply Plan to DWR in advance of the filing with
the Commission so as to be able to indicate DWR's approval of such
plan.  Utility shall indicate in its Advice Letter filing to
the Commission whether DWR has approved such plan as
appropriate.  DWR shall also formally notify the Commission
when it has approved such plan.

DWR and the Commission
will review and approve the Utility Gas Supply Plans.  In the
event of conflicting guidance between the Commission and DWR
regarding various aspects of the Gas Supply Plan they respectively
approve or reject, where DWR only approves a subset of what the
Commission approves, then Utility shall operate within the sphere
of DWR's approval.  If, however, the Commission explicitly
rejects portions of the Gas Supply Plan that DWR would authorize,
then Utility must operate within the limitations of the
Commission's decision.  After a reasonable period of time
operating within the framework of the Gas Supply Plans and the
Commission's and DWR's respective approval and/or rejection of
various pieces of the Gas Supply Plan, the Parties agree to meet
and confer to determine whether the approval process may need to be
revised in some manner, and Utility shall submit to Commission any
such proposed revisions. Once approved, Utility may act within such
Utility Gas Supply Plan without further DWR involvement, except as
provided below.

V.     Gas
Purchasing

Utility and DWR shall
jointly determine a list of approved gas providers who can be used
to supply gas under the Contracts with Fuel Options.  Master
agreements intended to cover normal day-to-day volumes will then be
executed with such approved providers.  While DWR will be the
executing party under all DWR gas contracts, such agreements shall
specifically authorize Utility to act for and on behalf of DWR, as
a limited agent, in negotiating specific prices, quantities and
delivery periods for specific purchases under such master
agreements; provided however, on the earliest practicable date
after the execution of this Agreement, DWR agrees to provide to
Utility in writing and in advance of such negotiations any limits,
including without limitation any terms, that may be required by
DWR.  If Utility determines it would be beneficial to enter
into any DWR gas contract which exceeds 3 months or have a total
value exceeding $10 million, it shall negotiate such agreement(s)
and submit them to DWR for advance approval and
execution.  

VI.     Gas
Transportation

Utility shall have
responsibility for recommending to DWR which pipelines should
transport gas if Utility, acting as limited agent on behalf of DWR
is to supply gas  under a Contract with Fuel Option. 
Following approval of or revision of Utility Gas Supply Plan,
Utility shall negotiate firm and/or interruptible agreements with
such pipelines, consistent with the Utility Gas Supply Plan and
submit them to DWR for execution.  While DWR will be the
executing party, such agreements with pipelines shall specifically
authorize Utility to act for and on behalf of DWR in nominating gas
deliveries, making imbalance trades and managing gas volumes
transported under such agreements  provided, however, on the
earliest practicable date after the execution of this Agreement,
DWR agrees to provide to Utility in writing and in advance of such
negotiations any limits, including without limitation any terms,
that may be required by DWR.

VII.  Gas
Scheduling

If permitted under the
Allocated Contracts, the Utility shall have full administrative and
operational responsibility for scheduling gas deliveries, whether
to a specific generating plant or to storage for all gas contracts
entered into by DWR or by Utility on DWR's behalf pursuant to this
Exhibit B.  This function includes use of interstate and
intrastate gas pipeline provider websites, confirming via
telephone, and all other activities required to move gas from the
designated delivery point, as determined by the Utility, to its
destination, as determined by the Utility.

VIII.  Storage
Capacity, Injections and Withdrawals

Utility shall have
responsibility for devising plans for gas storage, if Utility,
acting as limited agent on behalf of DWR,  is to supply gas
under Contracts with Fuel Option from a list of approved
providers.   Following approval of the Utility Gas Supply
Plans, Utility shall negotiate firm and/or interruptible agreements
with such storage service providers and submit them to DWR for
execution.  While DWR will be the executing party with DWR
remaining the principal under such contracts, such agreements with
storage service providers shall specifically authorize Utility to
act for and on behalf of DWR in nominating gas injections and
withdrawals under such agreements; provided, however, on the
earliest practicable date after the execution of this Agreement,
DWR agrees to provide to Utility in writing and in advance of such
negotiations any limits, including without limitation any terms,
that may be required by DWR.  

IX.  Managing
Gas Delivery/Usage Imbalances

For gas that it purchases
and transports on behalf of DWR, Utility shall have full
administrative and operational responsibility for monitoring and
managing the daily status of gas usage vs. gas deliveries (i.e. gas
imbalances).  In addition, to the extent that gas
transportation providers issue operational flow orders or require
adjustments in scheduled gas deliveries due to system constraints,
Utility, acting as limited agent on behalf of DWR, shall be
responsible for compliance with such orders.  Utility shall
also be responsible for any penalties imposed by gas transportation
providers for imbalances caused by Utility, due to its failure to
exercise prudent gas management practices.

X.  Invoice
Review, Approval and Payment

For natural gas, pipeline
transportation and storage services it purchases in accordance with
this Exhibit B, Utility, acting as limited agent on behalf of DWR,
shall have responsibility for receiving invoices from gas,
transportation and storage suppliers, reviewing them for accuracy,
approving/rejecting invoices for payment and forwarding to DWR for
payment; provided, however, on the earliest practicable date after
the execution of this Agreement, DWR agrees to cause Utility to be
authorized to receive such information from Suppliers. 
Utility shall provide DWR sufficient documentation to verify
payment of the invoices.

XI.     Forecasting

Utility shall be
responsible for all gas price, demand and supply forecasts which
Utility believes are consistent with any accepted gas supply
responsibilities. 

XII.  Risk
Management

Utility shall develop and
include in its Gas Supply Plans, plans for the hedging of DWR Fuel
Supply costs.  Final decisions relating to the use or non-use
of financial tools such as futures, options and swaps to hedge
future gas price exposure on any gas volumes not hedged by Utility
under the Utility Gas Supply Plans shall be made and implemented by
DWR.  Any such contracts executed by DWR on a "portfolio
basis" should be utility-specific.

XIII.  Market
Intelligence

Any and all efforts to
obtain, analyze and utilize market intelligence for decision-making
purposes shall be the responsibility of Utility. 

XIV.  Payment of
Gas Costs

For natural gas, pipeline
transportation, financial hedges and storage services that are
purchased and provided by a Supplier under an approved Fuel Supply
Plan, DWR shall pay such gas related costs as part of the invoice
for commodity, product, or services submitted by the
Supplier.  For natural gas, pipeline transportation and

SETTLEMENT PRINCIPLES

FOR REMITTANCES AND

SURPLUS REVENUES

EXHIBIT
C

SETTLEMENT PRINCIPLES FOR REMITTANCES AND SURPLUS
REVENUES

This Exhibit C outlines
the principles by which Utility will calculate revenues associated
with surplus energy sales and DWR energy delivered to retail
customers.  This Exhibit C also addresses the information that
Utility will provide to DWR to support DWR payment of Contract
invoices, and invoices from natural gas supplier(s) for fuel
provided to service DWR Contracts where tolling options have been
implemented. 

This Exhibit C works in
conjunction with the applicable Servicing Arrangement with Utility
for purposes of determining the remittance amounts by Utility,
which serves as DWR's billing and collection agent.

In accordance with the Contract Allocation Order (*), this Exhibit C
provides that:

      ·  Revenues will be allocated for
both surplus sales and retail customer deliveries

      ·  Revenues will be allocated pro
rata, based on dispatched quantities of energy

      ·  The principle of balancing
least cost economic dispatch while maintaining reliability is
reinforced through these revenue allocation protocols.

      ·  Surplus sales quantities will
be calculated as the difference between Utility's Energy Delivery
Obligations (EDO) and the combination of energy from URG and energy
dispatched from the Contracts.

Where Utility's Energy
Delivery Obligations is defined as: (1) Utility's retail load (**)which
includes distribution losses, (2) all pump-back loads, (3) energy
exchange transactions between Utility and counter parties, (4)
existing wholesale obligations, and (5) transmission
losses.

The principles herein,
together with the applicable methods and calculations contained in
the Servicing Arrangement, form a substantive component of the
accounting protocols required to implement the Contract Allocation
Order. This Exhibit should also be read in conjunction with Exhibit
F ("Data Requirements").

Exhibit F may periodically
be modified to include all data that DWR will require to verify the
remittances of revenues as remittance or implementation protocols
change.  Utility and DWR agree to modify Exhibit F to include
or exclude information reasonable determined by DWR to allow DWR to
verify Net DWR Retail Supply and the surplus
remittances.

(*)   Contract Allocation Order is CPUC Decision (D.)
02-09-053.

(**)  PG&E retail load obligations per CPUC May 2002 Service
Order (D.02-05-048) includes Western Area Power Administration
(WAPA) load, although this load is not retail load.

I.
          Utility
Remittance to DWR

          Utility
shall remit to DWR an Energy Payment for the delivery of Contract
energy to  Utility retail customers (including the delivery or
Contract energy to WAPA)  and a separate payment for DWR's
share of Surplus Energy Sales Revenues.  The principles for
the remittances to DWR of Surplus Energy Sales Revenue and Energy
Payment are contained in Sections A and B of this Exhibit C,
respectively.  The details for determination of the
remittances to DWR by Utility are contained in the Servicing
Arrangement.

          A.     
Utility Remittance to DWR of Revenue from Surplus Energy
Sales

          
Surplus Energy and Revenues

          Surplus
energy exists when dispatched supply from Utility portfolio and DWR
Contracts exceeds Utility's Energy Delivery Obligations.  When
such a condition exists, the revenues from the sale of surplus
energy shall be shared between Utility and DWR.  Surplus sale
revenues can occur either through a forward market sale or a
delivery of the excess energy into the ISO real time market. 
In addition to the sharing of surplus energy revenues, the quantity
of any surplus energy shall likewise be shared between Utility and
DWR, and used in the determination of the Hourly Percentage Factor
described in Section I.(B).

          Surplus
energy sales revenues shall be placed by Utility into a separate
account (Surplus Sales Fund) to be held in trust and shall be
disbursed by Utility to DWR in accordance with the pro-rata
allocation principles in Exhibit C and consistent with the
provisions of Attachment J of the Servicing Arrangement.  For
surplus energy sales to third parties, Utility shall apply
reasonable credit risk management criteria that is consistent with
industry accepted credit standards.

          
Surplus Energy Quantity

          The
Surplus Energy quantity shall be determined by subtracting
Utility's Energy Delivery Obligations from the sum of dispatched
URG energy and dispatched DWR Supply.  URG energy shall
include dispatched energy from URG, new Utility contracts and
Utility market purchases with adjustments for Ancillary Services
and ISO Instructed Energy as described under "Definitions and
Adjustments."  DWR Supply shall include dispatched energy from
DWR must take and dispatchable contracts plus adjustments described
below.  

          DWR
Surplus Energy quantity shall be the product of Surplus Energy
quantity multiplied by the DWR Surplus Energy Percentage. 
Utility Surplus Energy quantity shall be the remaining portion of
Surplus Energy.  Both Utility and DWR Surplus Energy
quantities shall be applied to the respective Party's energy supply
quantities for determination of the Hourly Percentage Factor
described in Section (B).

          
Surplus Energy Sales Revenues

Surplus Energy Sales
Revenues shall be shared between Utility and DWR in the same manner
as Surplus Energy.  

          
Forward Market Sale

DWR share of revenues from
a forward market sale of surplus energy shall be the product of the
net revenue multiplied by the DWR Surplus Energy Percentage. 
Utility share of these revenues shall be net revenue less DWR share
of net revenues.  Revenues from a forward market sale shall
not be distributed to the Parties until after Utility receives the
revenues from the sales and pays sale‐related charges. 
Shared revenues from forward market sales shall be net of
transmission costs and broker fees.

          
ISO Real Time Market Sales

Revenues from delivery of
surplus energy to the ISO real time market shall be determined from
the product of positive load or supply deviation multiplied by the
ISO real time market price.  These revenues will be netted
against any ISO charges related to the load deviation, including a
negative ISO price.  Load deviation is determined by
subtracting the Utility metered supply from the Final Hour Ahead
Supply Schedule, however only positive quantities, where schedule
exceeds meter, reflect surplus conditions for revenue sharing.
Supply deviation is determined by subtracting the Final Hour Ahead
Supply Schedule (adjusted by real time instructions) from metered
supply, however, only positive quantities, where meter exceeds the
adjusted schedule, reflect surplus conditions for revenue
sharing.

DWR share of revenues from
delivery of surplus energy to ISO real time market shall be the
product of the net revenues multiplied by the DWR Surplus Energy
Percentage.  Utility share of these net revenues shall be the
net revenue less DWR share of net revenues.  Revenues from
delivery of surplus energy to the ISO real-time market shall not be
distributed to the Parties until after the Utility received payment
for final monthly invoice from the ISO for the month in which the
surplus energy was delivered.

          
Over-generation Periods

During periods of
over-generation condition as announced by the ISO, surplus sales
may be made at very low, zero or even negative prices.  In
such conditions, the surplus sale revenue calculations as described
above still hold.  However it is recognized that the sales may
result in little or no revenue.  Sales could even be done at a
cost to the seller.  That seller could be Utility or the ISO
selling in an "out-of-market" condition.  During these
conditions, ISO-related charges assigned to Utility for such sales
(e.g. – ISO selling out‐of‐market) are included
in the surplus sales revenue as a cost.  During
over-generation conditions there may be no market in which to sell
surplus energy.  In that event, or in expectation of that
event, Utility shall declare that no valid market exists for
surplus energy and shall begin curtailing must-take resources in
accordance with Utility's procedures for mitigating over-generation
conditions.  Such mitigation measures shall be consistent with
good utility practice, specifically hydroelectric facilities at
spill or near-spill conditions and nuclear facilities scheduled by
Utility are the last resources to be reduced in power
output.

Over-generation for
purposes of this Exhibit C is defined as the condition in which
total supply exceeds total loads in the ISO control
area.

Revenues or costs from
delivery of surplus energy to the ISO real time market under an
over-generation condition shall not be distributed to the Parties
until after Utility receives payment for final monthly invoice from
the ISO for the month in which the surplus energy was
delivered.

          
Calculation of Surplus Energy Percentage

DWR Surplus Energy
Percentage shall be equal to the pro rata share of DWR Supply to
the sum of Utility Supply and DWR Supply, expressed as
follows:

DWR Surplus Energy
Percentage = DWR Supply / (Utility Supply + DWR
Supply) 

Where:

DWR Supply is total energy
dispatched from DWR Contracts with adjustments for transmission
losses, Ancillary Services and ISO Instructed Energy transactions
described below.

Utility Supply is total
energy dispatched from URG, new Utility contracts and Utility
market purchases with adjustments for transmission losses, existing
wholesale obligations, WAPA load, Ancillary Services and ISO
Instructed Energy, exchange transactions, and ISO Uninstructed
Energy as described below.

          
Definitions and Adjustments

Certain energy and
capacity transactions, which may be conducted by Utility in its
normal course of business, may affect the Utility and DWR Supply
quantities used in pro rata calculations.

          
Exchanges are transactions where energy is delivered to a third
party in one period and a similar, but not necessarily equal,
amount of energy is returned by third party in a different
period.  For the purposes of pro rata share calculation,
exchanges use and supplement energy from the Utility
Supply.

          
Forward Sales are transactions where energy is sold in a
forward market to balance supply with demand.  In general, for
the purposes of remittance determination, forward sales are made
using energy from the joint Utility/DWR portfolio.

          
Ancillary Services are transactions where capacity from certain
qualifying resources is sold to ISO for ancillary services rather
than being used as energy to serve retail load.  
Resources from both Utility portfolio and DWR Contracts may qualify
for use as ancillary services.  Since the capacity used for
ancillary services does not serve retail energy load, ancillary
service capacity is not considered as a joint Utility/DWR portfolio
transaction for the purpose of remittance determination.  If
Utility or DWR Contract resource capacity is used for ancillary
services, the capacity quantity will not be included in the supply
quantity of the owning party for the purpose of pro rata share
calculations, and owning party will retain all the revenues from
the ancillary services as well as all associated transaction costs
and ISO charges. 

          
ISO Instructed Energy is a transaction where certain qualifying
resources are able to sell energy from unused capacity to the ISO
in the real time market.  The energy delivered from these
resources is directed by the ISO in real time to balance supply and
load imbalances on the grid.  Either Utility portfolio or DWR
Contracts may contain resources that have ability to provide
instructed energy to ISO.  Since instructed energy is resource
specific and does not directly serve the retail load of any
utility, instructed energy is not considered as a joint Utility/DWR
portfolio transaction for the purpose of remittance
determination.  If Utility or DWR Contract resources are
dispatched as instructed energy, the energy quantity will not be
included in the supply quantity of the owning party for the purpose
of pro rata share calculations, and owning party will retain all
the revenues from the instructed energy as well as all associated
transaction costs and ISO charges.   

          
ISO Uninstructed Energy is a transaction where energy is
delivered or received from the ISO grid in the real time based on
the actual consumption of retail load and actual deliveries of
supply resources.   

          
Uninstructed Load Deviations

Uninstructed load
deviations are the difference between scheduled load and metered
load.  If load deviations are positive (schedule exceeds
meter), it is considered that excess supply was dispatched from the
joint Utility/DWR portfolio in excess of quantity needed to serve
retail load, and that the ISO credit for the excess supply should
be shared pro rata as described above.  If load deviations are
negative (meter exceed schedule), it is considered that Utility had
to procure additional supply from ISO real time market.  The
negative load deviation quantity procured from ISO real time market
is considered a Utility market purchase and the quantity will be
included in Utility Supply for pro rata share calculation
purposes.

          
Uninstructed Supply Deviations

Uninstructed supply
deviations are the difference between scheduled supply and metered
supply plus an ISO allocation for transmission losses.  Since
all DWR Contract energy will be delivered to Utility as SC to SC
transfers, no uninstructed energy deviations will be assessed by
the ISO to DWR Contracts.  All uninstructed supply deviations,
whether positive or negative, reflect over or under deliveries from
Utility supply portfolio and purchases by Utility to cover
allocated transmission losses.  Any supply deviation is
considered as either a net Utility market purchase or a net Utility
supply reduction, and the supply deviation quantity, positive or
negative, will be included in Utility Supply for pro rata share
calculation purposes.

          
Transmission Losses

Transmission loss is
defined as Energy that is lost due to the process of transmitting
energy from supply source to load.  Therefore, supply
resources from DWR Contracts and Utility Supply have distinct and
identifiable quantity of transmission losses.  Utility and DWR
Supply should be net of transmission losses because of energy that
is delivered to retail customers (i.e. load) equals quantity of
supply les losses.

          B.     
Utility Remittance to DWR for Sales of DWR Energy to Utility Retail
Customers –Energy Payment

Utility shall remit to DWR
its Energy Payments according to the terms of each Utility's
respective Servicing Arrangement.

The DWR Energy Payment is
billed by each utility to customers in accordance with the terms of
each applicable Utility Servicing Arrangement.  The DWR Energy
Payment is billed kWhs served by Net DWR Supply at the applicable
CPUC approved DWR rate.  Net DWR Supply is total DWR Supply
less DWR share of surplus energy.  The DWR Energy Payment is
allocated based on the percentage of energy supplied by DWR to
Utility, which is the "Hourly Percentage Factor" multiplied by the
retail load of each customer.  The Hourly Percentage Factor is
determined by calculating the percentage of net energy supplied by
DWR to Utility to serve retail load, as expressed below:

Hourly Percentage
Factor = Net DWR Supply / (Net Utility Supply + Net DWR
Supply)

Where:

Net DWR Supply is DWR
Supply quantity used for the determination of DWR Surplus Energy
Percentage less DWR share of surplus energy quantity, which is
determined by the product of surplus energy multiplied by DWR
Surplus Energy Percentage.

Net Utility Supply is
Utility Supply quantity used for the determination of DWR Surplus
Energy Percentage less Utility share of surplus energy quantity,
which is total surplus energy less the DWR share of surplus energy
quantity.

In the Event of any
conflict between the formulas and procedures in this Exhibit C and
the formulas and procedures in Utility's Servicing Arrangement,
those contained in Utility's Servicing Arrangement shall
govern.

          II.           
Bilateral Settlement

Under the Contract
Allocation Order DWR remains financially obligated for the
Contracts. DWR will continue to pay suppliers and this requires DWR
to apply appropriate procedures and controls to ensure that
payments are made accurately and in a timely manner. Information
supporting Contract settlements will be provided by Utility, and
additional information may also be required to address contract
performance issues (such as availability and other items as
discussed in Exhibit E) and to allow DWR to settle disputes in an
appropriate manner.

DWR requires sufficient
information to support payment requests so that it can meet the
accountability requirements of the State Controller's Office and
the State Auditor, and simultaneously comply with the applicable
statutes concerning disbursement of public monies. The Utility
shall reconcile schedules with suppliers invoice.  DWR shall
make the associated payments to suppliers after performing its
verification, and Utility will provide the data as required in
Exhibit F to allow it to perform these duties in a timely manner as
set forth herein.

DWR shall continue to
perform validation of settlement data and invoices and pay Contract
costs directly to the suppliers upon validation of
invoices.

          III.      
Fuel Cost Verification and Settlement

Exhibit B provides a
detailed discussion concerning Utility's responsibility for fuel
management. DWR will continue to pay fuel suppliers and others
involved in providing fuel management services for the delivery of
fuel for those DWR Contracts where the Fuel Option has been
elected.   Consistent with the above, Utility will
perform settlements activities to reconcile quantities and
associated charges, and DWR will perform verification, audit and
monitoring to support its disbursement of funds.  Utility will
comply with the requirements contained in Exhibit F to provide DWR
with the necessary information to apply appropriate procedures and
controls to ensure that fuel payments and payments for fuel
management services are made accurately and in a timely manner and
to allow DWR to settle disputes in an appropriate
manner.

DWR Form – Email/Fax

Upon the reasonable
request of DWR, Utility will provide to DWR any information in
respect of Utility that is applicable to the rights and obligations
of the Parties under this Agreement or any material information
that is reasonably necessary for DWR to monitor and manage their
risks and perform their fiduciary responsibilities.  Upon the
reasonable request of Utility, DWR will provide to Utility any
information in respect of DWR that is applicable to the rights and
obligations of the Parties under this Agreement or any material
information that is reasonably necessary for Utility to
operationally administer Contracts under this Agreement.

For the information
identified above, or any additional information identified through
the term of this Agreement, standard submission formats will be
used or be developed by DWR for use by each of the investor-owned
utilities, including Utility.  In the cases where the
information requirements result in a large volume of data (e.g.,
schedule information), DWR will use or develop standard detailed
file definitions for use by all of the investor-owned utilities,
including Utility.  Data will be submitted to DWR by Utility
through a secure electronic communication medium, unless other
medium is reasonably requested by DWR.

As a result of the
relative short implementation timeframes, it is anticipated an
interim delivery protocol (e.g., comma delimited file via email,
compact diskettes) will be utilized until the final data
transmission media are in place.  DWR shall work jointly with
Utility to ensure the required data is available by January 1,
2003.

In the event that DWR
incurs additional costs, including but not limited to penalties,
interest or other such costs, due to Utility's failure to timely
provide the data set forth in this Exhibit F, any such direct cost
increase invoiced or assessed to DWR shall be borne by
Utility.

The provisions of this
Exhibit are subject to annual review by DWR and Utility to ensure
that data reporting remains relevant and useful.
