TRANSMISSION OWNERS

     This Agreement is made as of the ____ day of __________, 1999, by and among Central Hudson Gas & Electric Corporation, Consolidated Edison Company of New York, Inc., New York State Electric &
Gas Corporation, Niagara Mohawk Power Corporation, Orange and Rockland Utilities, Inc., Rochester Gas and Electric Corporation (referred to collectively as the "Investor-Owned Transmission Owners"), the Power Authority of the State of New York ("NYPA"), a
corporate municipal instrumentality of the State of New York, and LIPA (a subsidiary of the Long Island Power Authority, a corporate municipal instrumentality of the State of New York)(herein referred to collectively as the "Transmission Owners") and the
New York Independent System Operator ("ISO"), a not-for-profit corporation.  The Transmission Owners and the ISO are herein referred to collectively as the Parties.

WITNESSETH:

     WHEREAS, the Investor-Owned Transmission Owners established the New York Power Pool ("NYPP") by agreement made as of the 21st day of July, 1966, and NYPA subsequently joined NYPP on October 11, 1967, and LIPA joined the
NYPP on May 28, 1998; and

     WHEREAS, the Transmission Owners have created, invested in and operated the interconnected transmission facilities in New York State and each Investor-Owned Transmission Owner has fiduciary responsibilities to assure, among
other things, the receipt of adequate revenues to maintain the facilities, a reasonable rate of return on its transmission facilities, and to provide for recovery of the capital invested in its transmission facilities; and

     WHEREAS, the ISO's principal mission is to maintain the integrity and reliability of the interconnected transmission facilities of the Transmission Owners, which will require the ISO to exercise Operational Control of the
transmission facilities of the Transmission Owners, referred to as "Transmission Facilities Under ISO Control," and will further require the ISO, among other things, to function as the successor to NYPP with respect to certain NYS Power System operational
activities heretofore conducted by NYPP; and 

     WHEREAS, the Investor-Owned Transmission Owners have legal obligations to provide safe and reliable service to the public, including assuring suitable use of their individual transmission facilities to attain and maintain
compliance with this obligation; and 

     WHEREAS, the Transmission Owners will continue to own, physically operate, modify, and maintain the Transmission Facilities Under ISO Operational Control, and the Investor-Owned Transmission Owners will continue to have
fiduciary obligations to their investors to protect their transmission facilities and to protect their investors from liability that may result from the operation of those facilities;

     NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and the mutual covenants and agreements set forth herein, the Parties do hereby agree with each other, for themselves and their successors and assigns, as follows:

ARTICLE 1.0:  DEFINITIONS

      1.01    The definitions contained in Article 1 of the Independent System Operator Agreement ("ISO Agreement") as it existed on the date this Agreement is signed by the Parties are
hereby incorporated by reference in their entirety into this Agreement.  Modifications to such definitions under the ISO Agreement shall apply to this Agreement, only if the Parties to this Agreement agree in writing pursuant to Section 6.14 below.

ARTICLE 2.0:  RESPONSIBILITIES OF THE TRANSMISSION OWNERS 
2.01    Transmission Facilities.  The Transmission Owners have specified transmission facilities over which the ISO will have day-to-day Operational Control.  These facilities shall be
collectively known as the "Transmission Facilities Under ISO  Operational Control," and are listed in Appendix A-1.  The Transmission Owners also will be responsible for providing notification to the ISO with respect to actions related to other specified
transmission facilities.  These facilities shall be collectively known as "Transmission Facilities Requiring ISO Notification," and are listed in Appendix A-2.  Transmission facilities may be added to, or deleted from, the lists of facilities provided in
Appendices A-1 and A-2 by mutual written agreement of the ISO and the Transmission Owner owning and controlling such facilities.  A current version of such list will be posted on the ISO's OASIS.

2.02    Transmission System Operation.  Each Transmission Owner shall operate and maintain its facilities that are designated as Transmission Facilities Under ISO Operational Control and Transmission
Facilities Requiring ISO Notification in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and in accordance with all Reliability Rules and all other applicable operating instructions, and ISO Procedures.  The Operating Committee of the ISO will promulgate
procedures to provide for the assumption of authority by the Transmission Owners' control centers to respond to an Emergency.  These procedures shall provide for the coordination of such response with the ISO.  The procedures will provide that, in
situations where immediate action is required, the Transmission Owners' control centers will have the authority to take actions, including without limitation, the following:

1.      exercising control over facilities listed in Appendix A-1 of this Agreement and generating units;

2.     starting quick start generation and the adjustment of generation; 

3.     re-energizing transmission facilities following breaker trips;

4.     implementing emergency Load Shedding and voltage reduction measures and subsequent restoration;

5.     voltage/VAR control during an Emergency;

6.     changing ratings of transmission facilities; and

7.     taking other measures consistent with Good Utility Practice that are required to respond to the Emergency.

     Until the Operating Committee promulgates such procedures, the Transmission Owners will exercise the above responsibilities during an Emergency.

2.03    Local Area Transmission System Facilities.  Transmission system facilities not designated as Transmission Facilities Under ISO Operational Control or as Transmission Facilities Requiring ISO
Notification shall be collectively known as "Local Area Transmission System Facilities."   Each Transmission Owner shall have sole responsibility for the operation of its Local Area Transmission System Facilities, provided, however, that such operation by
each Transmission Owner shall not compromise the reliable and secure operation of the NYS Transmission System.  Each Transmission Owner shall promptly comply to the extent practicable with a request from the ISO to take action with respect to coordination
of the operation of its Local Area Transmission System Facilities.

2.04    Safe Operations.  Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, a Transmission Owner may take such action with respect to the operation of its  facilities as it deems
necessary to maintain Safe Operations.  To ensure Safe Operations, all Transmission Owner local operating rules shall govern the connection and disconnection of generation with transmission facilities.  Safe Operations include  the application and
enforcement of rules, procedures and protocols that are intended to ensure the safety of personnel operating or performing work or tests on transmission facilities.

2.05    Local Control Center, Metering and Telemetry.  Each Transmission Owner shall operate, or arrange for a suitable third party to operate, on a twenty-four (24) hour basis, a suitable control
center, and shall install and maintain all other equipment and facilities reasonably required for the ISO to exercise Operational Control over Transmission Facilities Under ISO Operational Control.  Operation of the NYS Power System will be a cooperative
effort coordinated by the ISO control center in conjunction with each Transmission Owner's control center and will require the exchange of all reasonably necessary information. The Transmissions Owners' control centers must provide the ISO with
Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition ("SCADA") information on facilities listed in Appendices A-1 and A-2 as well as on certain generation resources in their Transmission Districts.  

     Each Transmission Owner shall have the responsibility for providing metering data in its Transmission District to the ISO, unless other parties are authorized by the appropriate regulatory authority to
provide metering data.  Each  Transmission Owner shall be responsible for collecting and making available to the ISO billing quality metering data and any other information for the Transmission District required by the ISO for billing purposes.  The
Parties agree that the metering and data acquisition systems currently in place will be acceptable for initial ISO operation.  The Transmission Owner shall cooperate with the ISO in implementing reasonable metering enhancements and new metering
installations that the ISO may deem necessary, provided that mechanisms satisfactory to each Transmission Owner are in place for their recovery of all associated costs.  Each Transmission Owner shall continue to receive telemetry from existing Generators
in its Transmission District and provide for the receipt of such information from new Generators.  Automatic Generation Control ("AGC") will be implemented via each Transmission Owner's control center.  Each Transmission Owner shall operate its control
center to comply with current AGC procedures, as well as any revised or new AGC procedures reasonably adopted by the ISO.  In addition, each Transmission Owner shall provide backup control services to the ISO in the event the ISO's computer systems
malfunction.  In such situations, Bid curves will be made available to the Transmission Owners' control centers to facilitate the continued economic operation of the system. Each Transmission Owner will maintain a strict Code of Conduct to prevent such
information from reaching any unauthorized person or entity.     

2.06    Security Constrained Unit Commitment Adjustments.  A Transmission Owner may request commitment of additional Generators (including specific output level(s)) if it determines that an
additional Generator is needed to ensure local area reliability.  The ISO will use Supplemental Resource Evaluation ("SRE") to fulfill a Transmission Owner's request for additional units.

2.07    Design, Maintenance and Rating Capabilities.  Each Transmission Owner shall comply with the provisions of this Agreement and all Reliability Rules, ISO Procedures, and Good Utility Practice
with respect to the design, maintenance and rating the capabilities of NYS Transmission System facilities.

2.08    Maintenance Scheduling.  The Transmission Owners shall schedule maintenance of their facilities designated as Transmission Facilities Under ISO Operational Control and schedule any outages
(other than forced transmission outages) of said transmission system facilities in accordance with outage schedules approved by the ISO.  The Transmission Owners shall comply with maintenance schedules  coordinated by the ISO, pursuant to this Agreement,
for Transmission Facilities Under ISO Operational Control.  Each Transmission Owner shall be responsible for providing notification of maintenance schedules to the ISO for Facilities Requiring ISO Notification. 

2.09    Investigations and Restoration.  Each Transmission Owner shall promptly conduct investigations of equipment malfunctions and failures and forced transmission outages in a manner consistent
with applicable FERC, PSC, NRC, NERC, NPCC and NYSRC rules, principles, guidelines, standards and requirements, ISO Procedures and Good Utility Practice.  Each Transmission Owner shall supply the results of such investigations to the NYSRC, the ISO and
the other Transmission Owners.  Each Transmission Owner shall determine the level of resources to be applied to restore facilities to service following a failure, malfunction, or forced transmission outage. Following a total or partial system
interruption, restoration shall be coordinated between the ISO and the Transmission Owners' control centers.  The Transmission Owners' control centers shall have the authority, in coordination with the ISO, to restore the system and to re-establish
service if doing so would minimize the period of service interruption.

2.10    Information and Support.  The Transmission Owners shall obtain from the ISO and the ISO shall provide to the Transmission Owners the necessary information and support services to comply with
their obligations under this Article.

ARTICLE 3.0:  RESPONSIBILITIES OF THE ISO
3.01    Operation and Coordination.  The ISO shall direct the operation of, and coordinate the maintenance scheduling of, certain facilities of the NYS Power System, including coordination with
control centers maintained by the Transmission Owners in accordance with the Reliability Rules, as follows:
a.      Assuming responsibility for Control Area operations of the NYS Power System previously performed by NYPP; 

b.      Performing balancing of Generation and Load while ensuring the safe, reliable and efficient operation of the NYS Power System;

Requirement of each of the Investor Owned Transmission Owners, NTAC, the annual transmission revenue requirement of LIPA, and any Stranded Investment Recovery Charge;

c.      The ISO does not materially and adversely affect the right of any Transmission Owner concerning transitional arrangements set forth in the ISO Tariffs, pertaining or relating to Existing
Transmission Agreements which are in effect at the commencement of ISO operations;

d.      Con Edison, LIPA and NYPA have adequate assurance in the opinion of each such entity, that participation in the ISO will not jeopardize the tax-exempt status of their respective tax-exempt bonds,
the ability of such Investor-Owned Transmission Owner to deduct interest payments, or the ability of the Transmission Owners to secure future tax-exempt financing; 

e.      The ISO does not act in violation of lawful PSC or FERC Orders;

f.      The ISO does not file a request under Section 205 of FPA to revise the provisions in the ISO Services Tariff related to indemnification and limitation of liability;

g.      The ISO does not have a financial interest in any commercial transaction involving the use of the NYS Power System or any other electrical system;

h.      The ISO does not seek modification of  any provision of the ISO OATT or the ISO Services Tariff so as to require, directly or indirectly, wheeling to end users except as authorized by the PSC or a
retail access tariff approved by the Long Island Power Authority's Board of Trustees, or a sham wholesale transaction (as defined in FPA Section 212(h));

i.      The ISO distributes revenues from the collection of transmission charges to the Transmission Owner in a timely manner; and 

j.      The ISO enforces and  complies with the creditworthiness and collection  standards of the ISO Procedures, the ISO OATT and the ISO Services Tariff.

3.05    Collection and Billing.  The ISO shall facilitate and/or perform the billing and collection of revenues related to services provided by the ISO pursuant to the terms of the ISO OATT and the
ISO Services Tariff. 

3.06    NYPA Annual Transmission Revenue Requirement.  This Agreement is premised on NYPA recovering its full annual transmission revenue requirement.  This is to be achieved through a
mechanism known as the NTAC.  NYPA will submit its annual revenue requirement for FERC approval.  NYPA will be entitled to receive from the ISO the difference between its FERC-approved revenue requirement and the sum of revenues it collects from contracts
and from TSCs associated with its current transmission system.  The ISO will credit any TCC revenues associated with NYPA's facilities and allocate the remainder on a kWh basis to all transmission Load the ISO serves.  NYPA's recovery pursuant to NTAC is
limited as described in Attachment H to the ISO OATT.  This Agreement is further premised on each Investor-Owned Transmission Owner being authorized to fully recover the NTAC charged to its transmission and retail customers and that any necessary
regulatory approvals for such full recovery will be granted by the PSC and FERC. 

3.07    Proposed Material Modifications to the NYS Power System.  The ISO shall establish procedures to evaluate the impact of any proposed material modifications to the NYS Power System.  If
the ISO or a Transmission Owner determines that a proposed modification will have a negative impact on system reliability or on total Interface transfer capability over an Interface or Interfaces, the ISO or the Transmission Owner may refer the issue for
resolution pursuant to procedures comparable to those set forth in Article 5 of the ISO/NYSRC Agreement.  However, the approval of the NYSRC or the ISO shall not be required to submit the issue to the PSC for resolution. 

3.08    OASIS.  The ISO shall maintain the OASIS for the New York Control Area.
3.09    Transmission Owner Reimbursement and Assumption of Existing Obligations.  As soon as practicable, or no later than a date to be mutually agreed upon by the Parties, the ISO shall
reimburse the Transmission Owners for all costs associated with the start-up and establishment of the ISO, to the extent that the ISO is authorized by FERC to recover such costs.  Such costs shall include, but are not limited to, the costs associated
with: the transfer of the current NYPP Control Center buildings and facilities to the ISO; and start-up and development costs, including but not limited to software development and licensing costs, project development costs, and regulatory costs.

              The ISO shall assume all existing contractual and other obligations of the NYPP.  If the ISO decides to take action to terminate any such contract or
obligation,  or its assumption of existing obligations, it will bear any costs related thereto.  The ISO shall utilize the current facilities and equipment of the NYPP and retain NYPP employees to the greatest extent practicable.
3.10    Transmission Owners Reserved Rights.  Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, or any other agreement or amendment made in connection with the restructuring of the NYPP and
establishment of the New York ISO, each Transmission Owner shall retain all of the rights set forth in this Section; provided, however, that such rights shall be exercised in a manner consistent with the Transmission Owners' rights and obligations under
the Federal Power Act and the Commission's rules and regulations thereunder.  This Section is not intended to reduce or limit any other rights of a Transmission Owner as a signatory to this Agreement or any of the ISO Related Agreements or under an ISO
Tariff.
a.       Each Transmission Owner shall have the right at any time unilaterally to file pursuant to Section 205 of the Federal Power Act to change the ISO OATT, a Service Agreement under the ISO OATT,

g.       Each Transmission Owner retains the right to take whatever actions it deems necessary to fulfill its obligations under local, state or federal law. 

h.       Nothing in this Agreement shall be construed as limiting in any way the rights of a Transmission Owner to make any filing with the PSC.

i.       Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, no amendment to any provision of this Section may be adopted without the agreement of the Transmission Owners.

3.11    Retention of Non-Transferred Obligations.  Any and all other rights and responsibilities of a Transmission Owner related to the ownership or operation of its transmission assets or to
its rights to withdraw its assets from ISO control, that have not been specifically transferred to the ISO under this Agreement or otherwise addressed under this Agreement, will remain with the Transmission Owners.

3.12    LIPA Scheduling Procedures.  LIPA shall develop and file with the ISO procedures that will be implemented by LIPA on a nondiscriminatory basis.   The procedures shall cover: (a) LIPA's
scheduling of transactions on the Northport-Norwalk intertie; (b) submitting such schedules to the ISO by the ISO's deadline for submitting schedules; (c) developing a preapproved list of transactions that the ISO may schedule and list of Transmission
Customers that may withdraw Energy from and inject Energy into the Long Island Transmission District; and (d) any additional procedures required for LIPA to coordinate transaction scheduling with the ISO.   LIPA will be the only party authorized to submit
schedules to the ISO for Transmission Service on the Northport-Norwalk intertie.  All parties seeking Transmission Service into and out of the Long Island Transmission District shall obtain pre-approval from LIPA before scheduling transactions with and
through the ISO.  LIPA shall electronically certify to the ISO pre-approved customers and transactions.  If a party or transaction is not so pre-approved and certified by LIPA and such party submits a schedule for such a transaction to the ISO, the ISO
shall reject the schedule and advise such party that it must obtain LIPA approval.

ARTICLE 4.0:  ASSIGNMENT

5.06    Survival.  The provisions of this Article, "Limitations of Liability and Indemnification" shall survive the termination or expiration of this Agreement or the ISO Tariffs.

ARTICLE 6.0:  OTHER PROVISIONS
6.01    Term and Termination.  This Agreement shall become effective upon the execution of this Agreement by the Transmission Owners and the ISO and on the latest of:  (i) the date(s) FERC accepts for
filing, without condition or material modification: (a) this Agreement; (b) the ISO Tariffs; (c) the ISO Agreement; (d) the NYSRC Agreement; and (e) the ISO/NYSRC Agreement ("ISO Tariffs" and "ISO Related Agreements"); (ii) the date on which FERC, the PSC
and any other regulatory agency having jurisdiction grant all necessary approvals, including, without limitation, any approvals required under Section 70 of the Public Service Law and Section 203 of the FPA; (iii) September 1, 1999; or (iv) on such later
date specified by FERC.   Without waiving or limiting any of its other rights under this Article, if a Transmission Owner determines that any of the conditions set forth in Section 3.04 hereof is not being met or ceases to be in full force and effect that
Transmission Owner may withdraw from this Agreement, the ISO Agreement and the ISO Tariffs and withdraw its assets from the ISO's control and administration on ninety (90) days prior written notice to all Parties to this Agreement and FERC.  Such notice
shall identify the condition or conditions set forth in Section 3.04 that have not been met or no longer are in full force and effect; provided, however, that prior to the filing of such notice, the ISO shall be advised of the specific condition or
conditions that are no longer in full force and effect, and the ISO shall have the opportunity to restore the effectiveness of the condition or conditions identified within a thirty (30) day period.  If the effectiveness of the condition or conditions is
not  restored within thirty (30) days, the Transmission Owner may file a notice of withdrawal with the ISO and FERC; provided, however, that if the ISO demonstrates that it has made a good faith effort but has been unable to restore the effectiveness of
the condition or conditions within the thirty (30) day period, the ISO shall be provided an additional thirty (30) day period to restore the effectiveness of the condition or conditions and the Transmission Owner may not file the notice of withdrawal
until the expiration of the second thirty (30) day period.   Withdrawal of a Transmission Owner under this Section shall be effective ninety (90) days after the filing of the notice of withdrawal unless FERC finds that such withdrawal of an Investor-Owned
Transmission Owner is contrary to the public interest, as that standard has been judicially construed under the Mobile-Sierra doctrine. However, the Transmission Owner who submitted the notice of withdrawal  may withdraw the notice or extend the
withdrawal date.  Nothing in this section shall be construed as a voluntary undertaking by any Transmission Owner to remain a Party to this Agreement after the expiration of its notice of withdrawal.

     In addition to the foregoing provision, after the fifth anniversary of the effective date of this Agreement, this Agreement may be terminated by a unanimous vote of the Transmission Owners or their
successors or assignees.  If the Transmission Owners vote to terminate this Agreement, they will file with FERC and the PSC an explanation of their action and a proposal for an alternative plan for the safe, reliable  and efficient operation of the NYS
Transmission System. 

6.02    Withdrawal.  Any Transmission Owner may withdraw from this Agreement, the ISO Agreement and the ISO Tariffs and withdraw its assets from the ISO control and administration upon ninety
(90) days written notice to the ISO Board and FERC. In the case of an Investor-Owned Transmission Owner, no further approval by FERC shall be required for such withdrawal from this Agreement, if such Investor-Owned Transmission Owner has on file with FERC
its own open access transmission tariff and such withdrawal shall be effective unless FERC finds that such withdrawal is contrary to the public interest, as that standard has been judicially construed under the Mobile-Sierra doctrine .  Any modification
to this Article shall provide any Party with the right to withdraw from the Agreement pursuant to the unmodified provisions of this Article, within ninety (90) days of the effective date of such modification.  Notwithstanding any other provision of
Article 6,  in the event that the tax-exempt financing of a Party is jeopardized by its participation in the ISO, the Party may withdraw from this Agreement, the ISO Agreement and the ISO Tariffs and withdraw any assets from ISO  control and
administration upon thirty (30) days prior written notice to the ISO Board.

6.03    Obligations after Termination or Withdrawal.
a.      Following termination or withdrawal from the Agreement, a Party shall remain liable for all obligations arising hereunder prior to the effective date of termination or withdrawal, including all
obligations accrued prior to the effective date, imposed on the Party by this Agreement or the ISO Tariffs or other ISO Related Agreements. 

b.     Termination or the withdrawal from this Agreement shall not relieve a Party of any continuing obligation it may have under the ISO Tariffs and ISO Related Agreements, unless the Party also withdraws from
the ISO Tariffs or ISO Related Agreements.  

6.04    Winding Up.  Any provision of this Agreement that expressly or by implication comes into or remains in force following the termination or withdrawal from this Agreement shall survive
such termination or withdrawal.  The surviving provisions shall include, but shall not be limited to (i) those provisions necessary to permit the orderly conclusion, or continuation pursuant to another agreement, of transactions entered into prior to the
termination of or withdrawal from this Agreement, (ii) those provisions necessary to conduct final billing, collection, and accounting with respect to all matters arising hereunder, and (iii) the indemnification and limitation of liability provisions as
applicable to periods prior to such  termination or withdrawal.  The ISO and the terminating or withdrawing Party or Parties shall have an obligation to make a good faith effort to agree upon a mutually satisfactory termination or withdrawal plan.  Such
plan shall have among its objectives an orderly termination  or withdrawal.  The plan shall address, to the extent necessary, the allocation of  any costs directly related to the termination or withdrawal by the Party or Parties terminating or withdrawing
from the Agreement. 

6.05    Confidentiality.

 A.      Party Access.  No Transmission Owner shall have a right hereunder to receive or review any documents, data or other information of another Transmission  Owner or the ISO supplied
pursuant to this Agreement,  including documents, data or other information provided to the ISO, to the extent such documents, data or information have been designated as confidential pursuant to the procedures specified in the ISO Tariffs or to the
extent that they have been designated as confidential by such other Party; provided, however, that a Party may receive and review any composite documents, data and other information that may be developed based on such confidential documents, data or
information if the composite does not disclose any individual Party's confidential data or information.

B.     Required Disclosure.  Notwithstanding anything in this Section to the contrary, if a Party is required by applicable law, or in the course of administrative or judicial
proceedings, or subpoena, to disclose information that is otherwise required to be maintained in confidence pursuant to this Section, that Party may make disclosure of such information; provided, however, that as soon as the Party learns of the disclosure
requirement and prior to making such disclosure, that Party shall notify the affected Party or Parties of the requirement and the terms thereof and the affected Party or Parties may, at their sole discretion and cost, assert any challenge to or defense
against the disclosure requirement and the Party shall cooperate with such affected Parties to the maximum extent practicable to minimize the disclosure of the information consistent with applicable law.  Each Party shall cooperate with the affected
Parties to obtain proprietary or confidential treatment of such information by the person to whom such information is disclosed prior to any such disclosure.

6.06    Governing Law; Jurisdiction.  The interpretation and performance of this Agreement shall be in accordance with and shall be controlled by the laws of the State of New York as though
this Agreement is made and performed entirely in New York.  With respect to any claim or controversy arising from this Agreement or performance hereunder within the subject matter jurisdiction of the Federal or State courts of the State of New York, the
Parties consent to the exclusive jurisdiction and venue of said courts.

6.07    Headings.  The section headings herein are for convenience and reference only and in no way define or limit the scope of this Agreement or in any way affect its provisions.  Whenever
the terms hereto, hereunder, herein or hereof are used in this Agreement, they shall be construed as referring to this entire Agreement, rather than to any individual section, subsection or sentence.

6.08    Mutual Agreement.  Nothing in this Agreement is intended to limit the Parties' ability to mutually agree upon taking a course of action different than that provided for herein;
provided that doing so will not adversely affect any other Parties' rights under this Agreement.  

6.09    Contract Supremacy.  In the case of a conflict between the express terms of this Agreement and the terms of the ISO Agreement, the express terms of this Agreement shall prevail.  In
the case of a conflict between the express terms of this Agreement and the terms of the ISO-NYSRC Agreement, the express terms of this Agreement shall prevail.  In the case of a conflict between the express terms of this Agreement and the express terms of
an ISO Tariff the terms of this Agreement shall prevail.

6.10    Additional Remedies.  The Parties agree that remedies at law will be inadequate to protect the interests of the Transmission Owners and that irreparable damage would occur in the event that
any of the provisions of this Agreement were not performed by the ISO in accordance with their specific terms or were otherwise breached.  Accordingly, it is agreed that the Transmission Owners, or any Transmission Owner, individually or in conjunction
with one or more other Transmission Owners, shall be entitled to an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of this Agreement or an ISO Tariff by the ISO and specific performance to enforce specifically the terms and provisions thereof in any court
of the United States or any state having jurisdiction, this being in addition to any other remedy to which the Transmission Owners are entitled at law or in equity.

6.11    No Third Party Rights.  Nothing in this Agreement, express or implied, is intended to confer on any person, other than the Parties hereto, any rights or remedies under or by reason of
this Agreement.

6.12    Not Partners.  Nothing contained in this Agreement shall be construed to make the Parties partners or joint venturers or to render any Party liable for the debts or obligations of any other
Party.

6.13    Waiver.  Any waiver at any time of the rights of any Party as to any default or failure to require strict adherence to any of the terms herein, on the part of any other Party or
Parties to this Agreement or as to any other matters arising hereunder shall not be deemed a waiver as to any default or other matter subsequently occurring.

6.14    Modification.  This Agreement is subject to change under Sections 205 of the FPA, as that section may be amended or superseded, upon the mutual written agreement of the Parties.
Absent mutual agreement of the Parties, it is the intent of this Section 6.14 that, to the maximum extent permitted by law,  the terms and conditions set forth in Sections 2.01, 3.03, 3.04, 3.09, 3.10, 3.11, 4.01, 4.02, 5.01, 5.02, 5.03, 5.04, 5.05, 5.06,
6.01, 6.02, 6.09 and 6.14 of this Agreement shall not be subject to change, regardless of whether such change is sought (a) by the Commission acting sua sponte on behalf of a Party or third party, (b) by a Party, (c) by a third party, or (d) in any other manner; subject only to an express finding by FERC that such change is required under the public interest standard under the
Mobile-Sierra doctrine.  Any other provision of this Agreement may be changed pursuant to a filing with FERC under Section 206 of the FPA and a finding by FERC that such change is just and reasonable.

6.15    Good Faith Resolution.  If cost shifting occurs as a result of FERC's decision in Central Hudson Gas & Electric Corporation, Docket Nos. ER97-1523-011, OA97-470-010, and
ER97-4234-008, the ISO and the Transmission Owners will work together in good faith to achieve a fair and equitable resolution.

6.16    Counterparts.  This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, no one of which needs to be executed by all of the Parties, and this Agreement shall be binding upon all the
Parties with the same force and effect as if all the Parties had signed the same document, and each such signed counterpart shall constitute an original of this Agreement.

 

     IN WITNESS WHEREOF, each of the Parties hereto has caused this Agreement to be executed in its corporate name by its proper officers as of the date first written above.

not-for-profit organizations representing Small Consumers; and (3) the governmental agency subsector, which shall include governmental agencies that advocate primarily on behalf of Small Consumers and governmental agencies that act as retail Load
aggregators primarily for Small Consumers. An ESCO, Municipal Electric System, Cooperatively Owned Electric System, Generator Owner, State Public Power Authority or Environmental Party may not participate in the End-Use Consumer sector.

            The allocation of voting shares among the subsectors shall be as follows:

                     (i)  Ten (10) percent of the total votes on the Management Committee shall be allocated to the Large
Consumer subsector; and shall be allocated among Large Consumers using the following formula: seventy-five (75) percent of the subsector's voting share shall be allocated based on a Party's annual Energy usage for the preceding full calendar year; and
twenty-five (25) percent of the subsector's voting share shall be allocated on a per capita basis. The votes of Parties in the Large Consumers subsector shall be split into an affirmative component based on the votes for the pending motion, and a negative
component based on votes against the pending motion, in direct proportion to the votes cast for and against the motion, rounded to two decimal places.

                     (ii)  Five (5) percent of the total votes on the Management Committee shall be allocated to the
Small Consumer subsector which shall include Small Consumers and not-for-profit organizations representing Small Consumers. Not-for-profit organizations that participate in this subsector must be certified by the ISO Board under Section 2.02. Each Party
that is a Small Consumer or a not-for-profit organization representing Small Consumers shall be entitled to cast one (1) vote. The five (5) percent of the votes on the Management Committee allocated to Small Consumers and not-for-profit organizations
representing Small Consumers shall be split into an affirmative component based on the votes for the pending motion, and a negative component based on votes against the pending motion, in direct proportion to the votes cast for and against the motion,
rounded to two decimal places.

                     (iii)  Five (5) percent of the total votes on the Management Committee shall be allocated to the
governmental agency subsector, which shall include governmental agencies that advocate primarily on behalf of Small Consumers and governmental agencies that act as retail Load aggregators primarily for Small Consumers.  Governmental agencies that

by the ISO Board from among the governmental agencies that qualify as organizations that advocate primarily on behalf of Small Consumers. The ISO Board will select as the State-Wide Consumer Advocate the agency that it believes will best represent the
interests of all classes of Small Consumers (including farms) throughout the State, giving due consideration to the demonstrated ability of the candidate agencies to provide sufficient resources to identify and to represent the interests of such consumers
before federal, state and local governmental agencies, and to coordinate with other groups having similar interests. The remaining two (2) percent of the total votes on the Management Committee allocated to the governmental agency subsector shall be
exercised by governmental agencies that advocate on behalf of Small Consumers, other than the agency selected as the State-Wide Consumer Advocate, and governmental agencies that act as retail Load aggregators primarily for Small Consumers.

            10.02   Submission of a Dispute.

            Any dispute between or among a Market Participant(s), a Customer, and/or the ISO involving transmission or other services under the ISO Tariffs shall be
presented directly to a senior representative of each of the parties to the dispute for resolution on an informal basis as promptly as practicable.

            In the event the designated representatives are unable to resolve the dispute by mutual agreement, such dispute may be submitted to the DRA. The party submitting
the matter to the DRA shall include a written statement describing the nature of the dispute and the issues to be resolved. Any subsequent mediation or arbitration process shall be limited to the issues presented for resolution.

            Within ten (10) days, the DRA shall decide whether the dispute should be referred to: (1) non-binding mediation; or (2) arbitration, and shall make such a referral.

            10.03   Referral of a Dispute To Mediation or Arbitration.

            The DRA may submit disputes to non-binding mediation where the subject matter of the dispute involves the proposed change or modification of an ISO procedure,
rate, Service Agreement, or ISO Tariff provision.  The DRA may submit disputes to arbitration which involve the interpretation or application of an ISO Procedure, rate, Service Agreement, or ISO Tariff provision.  Both the mediator and the arbitrator
shall have the authority to dismiss a dispute if:

	The dispute did not arise under the ISO Agreement or the ISO OATT or the ISO Services Tariff; or

	The claim is de minimis.

            10.04   Non-Binding Mediation.

            If the DRA refers the dispute to non-binding mediation, the following procedure will apply:

	The DRA shall have ten (10) days from the date of such referral to distribute a list of ten (10) qualified mediators to the disputing parties.

	Absent the express written consent of all disputing parties, no person shall be eligible for selection as mediator that is a past or present officer, employee or consultant to any of the disputing parties, or of any entity related
to or affiliated with any of the disputing parties or has an interest in the matter to be mediated. Any individual designated as mediator shall make known to the disputing parties any such disqualifying relationship or interest and a new mediator shall be
designated.

	If the disputing parties cannot agree upon a mediator, the disputing parties shall take turns striking names from a list supplied by the DRA with a disputing party chosen by lot striking the first name. The last remaining name shall
be designated as the mediator. If that individual is unable or unwilling to serve, the individual last stricken from the list shall be designated and the process repeated until an individual is selected that is able and willing to serve.

	The disputing parties shall attempt in good faith to resolve their dispute in accordance with the schedule established by the mediator. In no event may the schedule extend beyond thirty (30) days from the date of appointment of the
mediator.

	The mediator may require the disputing parties to:

	submit written statements of issues and positions;

	meet for discussions;

	provide expert testimony and exhibits; and

	comply with the mediation procedures designated by the DRA and/or the mediator.

	If the disputing parties have not resolved the dispute within thirty (30) days of the date the mediator was appointed, the mediator shall promptly provide the disputing parties and the DRA with a written, confidential, non-binding
recommendation to resolve the dispute. The recommendation shall include an assessment by the mediator of the merits of the principal positions being advanced by each of the parties to the dispute.

	The parties to the dispute shall then meet in a good faith attempt to resolve the dispute in light of the mediator's recommendation. This recommendation shall be limited to resolving the specific issues presented for mediation.

	If the disputing parties are still unable to resolve the dispute:

	any dispute not involving the proposed change or modification of a ISO Procedure, rate, Service Agreement, or an ISO Tariff provision may be referred to the arbitration process described below; or

	any disputing party may resort to regulatory or judicial proceedings as provided under the ISO OATT or the ISO Services Tariff; and

	the recommendation of the mediator and any statement made by any party during the mediation process shall not be admissible for any purpose in any subsequent proceeding.

	Each party to the dispute will bear a pro rata share of the costs associated with the time, expenses, and other charges of the mediator. Each party shall bear its own costs, including attorney and expert fees.

            10.05   Arbitration.

            If the DRA or the mediator refers the dispute to binding arbitration, then the following procedure will apply:

	The DRA shall have ten (10) days from the date of such decision to distribute a list of qualified arbitrators to the disputing parties.

	Absent the express written consent of all disputing parties, no person shall be eligible for selection as an arbitrator that is a past or present officer, employee of or consultant to any of the disputing parties, or of an entity
related to or affiliated with any of the disputing parties, or has an interest in the matter to be arbitrated. Any individual designated as an arbitrator shall make known to the disputing parties any such disqualifying relationship or interest and a new
arbitrator shall be designated.

	If the disputing parties cannot agree upon an arbitrator, they shall take turns striking names from a list of ten qualified individuals supplied by the DRA with a party chosen by lot striking the first name. The last remaining name
shall be designated as the arbitrator. If that individual is unable or unwilling to serve, the individual last stricken from the list shall be designated and the process repeated until an individual is selected that is able and willing to serve.

	The arbitrator shall have no power to modify or change any agreement, tariff or rule, or otherwise create any additional rights or obligations for any party. The scope of the arbitrator's decision shall be limited to the issues
presented for arbitration.

	The arbitrator shall determine discovery procedures, intervention rights, how evidence shall be taken, what written submittals may be made, and other procedural matters, taking into account the complexity of the issues involved, the
extent to which factual matters are disputed, and the extent to which the credibility of witnesses is relevant to a resolution. Each disputing party shall produce all evidence determined by the arbitrator to be relevant to the issues presented. To the
extent such evidence involves proprietary or Confidential Information, the arbitrator may issue an appropriate protective order which shall be complied with by all disputing parties. The arbitrator may elect to resolve the arbitration matter solely on the
basis of written evidence and arguments.

	The arbitrator shall consider all issues underlying the dispute, and shall take evidence submitted by the disputing parties in accordance with procedures established by the arbitrator and may request additional information including
the opinion of recognized technical bodies or experts. Disputing parties shall be afforded a reasonable opportunity to rebut any such additional information.

	Absent an agreement to the contrary by all disputing parties, no person or entity that is not a party to the dispute shall be permitted to intervene.

	Within ninety (90) days of the appointment of the arbitrator, and after providing the Parties with an opportunity to be heard, the arbitrator shall render a written decision, including findings of fact and the legal basis for the
decision. The arbitrator will follow the Commercial Arbitration Rules of the American Arbitration Association.

	Under the following circumstances, the decision of the arbitrator shall be final and binding on the parties:

	all parties agree that the decision will be binding; or

	the dispute involves a claim that a party owes another party a sum of money less than $500,000.

	If the arbitrator concludes that no proposed award is consistent with this ISO Agreement, the FPA and the Commission's then-applicable standards and policies, or would address all issues in dispute, the arbitrator shall develop a
compromise solution consistent with the terms of this Agreement. A written decision explaining the basis for the award shall be provided by the arbitrator to the parties and the DRA. No award shall be deemed to be precedential in any other arbitration
related to a different dispute.

	All costs associated with the time, expenses and other charges of the arbitrators shall be borne by the unsuccessful party. Each party shall bear its own costs, including attorney and expert fees.

	All arbitration decisions shall be filed with the Commission. Any arbitration decision that affects matters subject to the jurisdiction of the PSC under the New York State Public Service Law may be filed with the PSC.

	The judgment of the arbitrator may be entered on the award by any court in New York having jurisdiction. Within one (1) year of the arbitral decision, a party may request that the Commission or any other federal, state, regulatory
or judicial authority (in the state of New York) having jurisdiction over such matter vacate, modify, or take such other action as may be appropriate with respect to any arbitration decision that is:

	based upon an error of law;

	contrary to the statutes, rules, or regulations administered by such authority;

	violative of the Federal Arbitration Act or Administrative Dispute Resolution Act;

	based on conduct by an arbitrator that is violative of the Federal Arbitration Act or Administrative Dispute Resolution Act; or

	involves a dispute in excess of $500,000.

	Nothing in this Article shall restrict the rights of any party to file a complaint or a rate, tariff, or other contract change with the Commission under the relevant provisions of the Federal Power Act.

	No arbitrator shall render an Award which requires the transmission of electricity under circumstances where the Commission is precluded from ordering Transmission Services pursuant to FPA Section 212(h).

ARTICLE  15:  TAX-EXEMPT FINANCING

            15.01   Tax-Exempt Financing Pursuant to Section 142(f) of IRC.

            Except for Section 15.05, this Article is applicable only to Transmission Owners that have financed facilities for the local furnishing of electricity as
described in Section 142(f) of the Internal Revenue Code ("Local Furnishing Bond"). Notwithstanding any other provision of the ISO Agreement or an ISO Tariff, neither the ISO nor a Transmission Owner shall be required to provide Transmission Service or
any other service to any Customer pursuant to an ISO Tariff if the provision of such Transmission Service or other service would result in the loss of tax-exempt status of any Local Furnishing Bonds used to finance the Transmission Owner's facilities.

            Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, no Transmission Owner shall be required to accept or consent to any request, recommendation, or decision,
including, without limitation, a recommendation or a decision of an Arbitrator, or to build any facilities or to take any action, including, without limitation, the providing of Transmission Service or any other service, or to enter into any agreement if,
in the sole judgment of such Transmission Owner, such request, recommendation, decision, facilities, action, Transmission Service or agreement might reasonably be expected to result in litigation related to the tax-exempt status of the Local Furnishing
Bonds or any other tax-exempt debt obligation, or might reasonably be construed to adversely affect or bring into question the tax-exempt status of interest on bonds or other obligations issued by or for the benefit of such Transmission Owner, or
adversely affect or bring into question the ability of such Transmission Owner to deduct interest payments or to access the benefits of tax-exempt financing in the future.

            15.02   Alternative Procedures for Requesting Transmission Service.

	If a Transmission Owner determines that the provision of Transmission Service to be provided under the ISO OATT would jeopardize the tax-exempt status of any Local Furnishing Bonds, the Transmission Owner shall advise the ISO
within thirty (30) days of receipt of a Completed Application by an Customer requesting such service, or the date on which the ISO OATT becomes effective.

	If a Customer thereafter renews its request for the same Transmission Service referred to in (a) by tendering an application under Section 211 of the FPA, the Transmission Owner, within ten (10) days of receiving a copy of the
Section 211 request, will waive its right to receive a request for service under Section 213(a) of the FPA. The Commission, upon receipt of the Transmission Owner's waiver of its right to a request for service under Section 213(a) of the FPA, shall issue
an Order under Section 211 of the FPA. Upon issuance of the Order under Section 211 of the FPA, the ISO and the Transmission Owner shall be required to provide the requested Transmission Service in accordance with the terms and conditions of the ISO Tariff.

            15.03   Section 211 Order.

            The provision of Transmission Service under the ISO OATT shall also constitute the provision of Transmission Service pursuant to an Order by the Commission
under Section 211 of the FPA with respect to the transmission of electricity on Con Edison's and LIPA's transmission systems.

            15.04   Tax-Exempt Financing Pursuant to Section 103 and related provisions of            
             Internal Revenue Code.

            This provision is applicable only to NYPA which has financed transmission facilities with the proceeds of bonds issued pursuant to Section 103 and related
provisions of the Internal Revenue Code ("Government Bonds"). Notwithstanding any other provision of the ISO OATT Tariff, neither the ISO nor NYPA shall be required to provide Transmission Service to any Market Participant pursuant to the ISO OATT if the
provision of such Transmission Service would result in the loss of the tax-exempt status of any Government Bonds or impair NYPA's ability to issue future tax-exempt obligations.

            15.05   Responsibility of Costs Associated With Loss of Tax-Exempt Status.

            If, by virtue of an order issued by the Commission pursuant to Section 211 of the FPA, the ISO or a Transmission Owner is required to provide Transmission
Service that would adversely affect the tax-exempt status of a Transmission Owner's Local Furnishing Bonds or any other tax-exempt debt obligations, then the Market Participant receiving such Transmission Service will compensate the Transmission Owner for
all costs, if any, associated with the loss of tax-exempt status plus the normal costs of Transmission Service.

            15.06   Transmission Service Effects on Tax-Exempt Financing by LIPA

            This provision is applicable only to LIPA which has financed transmission facilities with the proceeds of LIPA's tax-exempt bonds issued pursuant to the
Internal Revenue Code. Notwithstanding any other provisions of the ISO OATT or the ISO Services Tariff, neither the ISO nor the Transmission Owner shall be required to provide transmission service to any Customer pursuant to an ISO Tariff if the
provisions of such Transmission Service would result in loss of tax-exempt status of any tax-exempt bonds or impair LIPA's ability to issue future tax exempt obligations. If, by virtue of an order issued by the Commission pursuant to Section 211 of the
FPA, the ISO or a Transmission Owner is required to provide Transmission Service that would adversely affect the tax-exempt status of LIPA's tax-exempt bonds or any other tax-exempt debt obligations, then the Customer receiving such Transmission Service
will compensate LIPA for all costs, if any, associated with the loss of tax-exempt status of LIPA's tax-exempt bonds on such other tax exempt obligations plus the normal costs of Transmission Service.

ARTICLE  16:  PENALTIES FOR NON-PERFORMANCE

            16.01   ISO Rights and Obligations.

            In the event that a Transmission Owner, Generator, marketer, or LSE should perform, or fail to perform, or fail to follow the ISO's instructions or orders in
such a way as to violate a Reliability Rule, or otherwise to endanger the reliability of the NYS Power System, the ISO Board shall have the right and obligation to take appropriate action and assess appropriate penalties against the offending entity, as
set forth below.

            16.02   ISO Actions and Penalties.

            The actions and/or penalties that may be assessed by the ISO shall be set forth in the ISO Tariffs and/or relevant contracts.

            16.03   Commission Filings.

            The ISO shall make a filing with the Commission as to the penalties that it may assess against any Market Participant or Party. The ISO may petition the
Commission and/or any court of competent jurisdiction to enforce these sanctions.

            16.04   Dispute Resolution Process.

            Any Market Participant or Party upon which a penalty is imposed under this Article may treat it as a dispute and utilize the Dispute Resolution Process set
forth in Article 10 of this Agreement.

ARTICLE  17:  FINANCIAL SETTLEMENTS

ARTICLE  19:  AMENDMENT OF THIS AGREEMENT AND THE ISO TARIFFS

            19.01   Modifications.

            Without waiving or limiting any rights of the Incorporating Parties under this Agreement, the ISO/TO Agreement or the ISO/NYSRC Agreement, the Parties agree
that this Agreement, the ISO OATT, and the ISO Services Tariff may be modified only as follows: any proposed amendment to the ISO OATT, the ISO Services Tariff or the ISO Agreement must be submitted to both the ISO Management Committee and the ISO Board;
if both the ISO Board and the ISO Management Committee agree to the proposed amendment, the ISO shall file the proposed amendment with the Commission pursuant to Section 205 of the FPA; provided however, that the foregoing provisions do not apply to any
proposed amendment to the governance provisions of this Agreement set forth in Sections 7.03, 7.04, 7.05, 7.06, 7.07, 7.08, 7.09, 7.10, 7.11, 7.12 and 7.13. A proposed amendment of any of the provisions of the preceding Sections by the ISO or any Party
must be filed pursuant to Section 206 of the FPA.  If the ISO Board and the Management Committee do not agree on the proposed amendment, the proposed amendment may not be filed with the Commission pursuant to Section 205 of the FPA. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, the ISO Board may submit to the Commission a proposed amendment to the ISO OATT, the ISO Services Tariff or the ISO Agreement under Section 205 of the FPA, without the concurrence of the Management Committee, under the following circumstances:
the ISO Board certifies that (1) the proposed amendment is necessary to address exigent circumstances related to the reliability of the NYS Power System or to address exigent circumstances related to an ISO Administered Market; and (2) the urgency of the
situation justifies a deviation from the normal ISO governance procedures. Any proposed amendment submitted unilaterally by the ISO shall contain an expiration date of no later than one hundred and twenty (120) days after it is filed with FERC and shall
expire no later than one hundred twenty (120) days after it was filed with FERC, unless the Management Committee files with FERC a written concurrence with the proposed amendment within the one hundred and twenty (120) day period or FERC approves the
proposed amendment under the just and reasonable standard under Section 206 of the FPA. The ISO Board shall have the authority to call a special meeting of the Management Committee to request its concurrence in a proposed amendment.

            19.02   FPA Section 206 Filings.

            Subject to Section 19.01, nothing in this Agreement shall be construed in any way as affecting the rights of any party to make a filing with the Commission
pursuant to Section 206 of the Federal Power Act.

            19.03   Proposed Amendments.

            All proposed amendments to the ISO Agreement must be filed with the Commission.

party's liability for the performance of its obligations hereunder.

            22.02   Assignment.

            Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 22.01 of this Agreement, the Parties hereby consent to the assignment of this Agreement by any Incorporating Party:

            23.01   Indemnification.

            The ISO shall indemnify, save harmless and defend a Transmission Owner including its directors, officers, employees, trustees, and agents, or each of them, from

without limitation, reasonable attorney and expert fees, and disbursements incurred by a Transmission Owner in any actions or proceedings between a Transmission Owner and another Transmission Owner, a third party, Market Participant, the ISO, or any other
party) arising out of or related to the Transmission Owner's or the ISO's acts or omissions related in any way to the Transmission Owner's ownership or operation of its transmission facilities when such acts or omissions are either (1) pursuant to or
consistent with ISO Procedures or direction; or (2) in any way related to the Transmission Owner's or the ISO's performance under the ISO OATT, except to the extent that a Transmission Owner is found liable for negligence or intentional misconduct, and
under the ISO Services Tariff, the ISO/TO Agreement, the NYSRC Agreement, the ISO/NYSRC Agreement, or this Agreement, except to the extent a Transmission Owner is found liable for gross negligence or intentional misconduct.

            23.02   Survival.

            The provisions of this Article 23 shall survive the termination of this ISO Agreement.

ARTICLE  24:  CLAIMS BY EMPLOYEES AND INSURANCE

            The ISO shall be solely responsible for and shall bear all of the costs of claims by its own employees, contractors, or agents arising under and covered by, any
workers' compensation law. The ISO shall furnish, at its sole expense, such insurance coverage and such evidence thereof, or evidence of self-insurance, as is reasonably necessary to meet its obligations under this Agreement.

            Additionally, the ISO will procure insurance or other alternative risk financing arrangements sufficient to cover the risks associated with the ISO carrying out its
obligations, including the obligation to indemnify the Transmission Owners. The ISO shall provide the Transmission Owners with the details of such insurance and shall have them named as additional insureds to the extent of their insurable interests.

ARTICLE  25:  LIMITATION OF LIABILITY

            25.01   Limitation of Liability of ISO.

            For the purpose of this Section, the term Market Participant shall not include a Transmission Owner with respect to acts or omissions related in any way to the
Transmission Owner's ownership or operation of its transmission facilities when such acts or omissions are either (1) pursuant to or consistent with ISO Procedures or direction; or (2) in any way related to the Transmission Owner's or the ISO's
performance under the ISO OATT, the ISO Services Tariff, the ISO/TO Agreement, the ISO/NYSRC Agreement or this Agreement. Subject to the provisions of Article 23, the ISO shall not be liable (whether based on contract, indemnification, warranty, tort,
strict liability or otherwise) to any Market Participant or any third party for any damages whatsoever, including without limitation, direct, incidental, consequential, punitive, special, exemplary or indirect damages resulting from any act or omission in
any way associated with this Agreement, except in the event that the ISO is found liable for gross negligence or intentional misconduct, in which case the ISO will not be liable for any incidental, consequential, punitive, special, exemplary, or indirect
damages; provided, however, that the liability of the ISO related services provided under the ISO OATT shall be governed by the provisions of the ISO OATT.

            25.02   Limitations of Liability of Transmission Owners.

            A Transmission Owner shall not be liable (whether based on contract, indemnification, warranty, tort, strict liability or otherwise) to the ISO, any Market
Participant, any third party, or any other Party, for any damages whatsoever, including without limitation, direct, incidental, consequential, punitive, special, exemplary or indirect damages resulting from any act or omission in any way associated with
this Agreement, except to the extent that the Transmission Owner is found liable for gross negligence or intentional misconduct, in which case the Transmission Owner shall not be liable for any incidental, consequential, punitive, special, exemplary, or
indirect damages; provided, however, that the liability of a Transmission Owner related to services provided under the ISO OATT shall be governed by the provisions of the ISO OATT.

ARTICLE  26:  OTHER PROVISIONS

            26.01   Governing Law; Jurisdiction.

            The interpretation and performance of this Agreement shall be in accordance with and shall be controlled by the laws of the State of New York as though this
Agreement was made and performed entirely in New York. With respect to any claim or controversy arising from this Agreement or performance hereunder within the subject matter jurisdiction of the Federal or State Courts of the State of New York, the
Parties consent to the exclusive jurisdiction and venue of said courts.

            26.02   Headings.

            The section headings herein are for convenience and reference only, and in no way define or limit the scope of this ISO Agreement or in any way affect its
provisions. Whenever the terms hereto, hereunder, herein or hereof are used in this ISO Agreement, they shall be construed as referring to this entire ISO Agreement, rather than to any individual section, subsection, or sentence.

            26.03   Mutual Agreement.

            Nothing in this ISO Agreement is intended to limit the Parties' ability to mutually agree upon taking a course of action different than that provided for
herein, provided that doing so will not adversely affect any other Parties' rights under this Agreement.

            26.04   No Third Party Rights.

            Nothing in this Agreement, express or implied, is intended to confer on any person, other than the Parties hereto, any rights or remedies under or by reason of
this Agreement.

            26.05   Not Partners.

            Nothing contained in this Agreement shall be construed to make the Parties partners or joint venturers or to render any Party liable for the debts or
obligations of any other Party.

            26.06   Waiver.

            Any waiver, at any time, of the rights of any Party as to any default on the part of any other Party or Parties to this Agreement, or as to any other matter
arising hereunder, shall not be deemed a waiver as to any default or other matter subsequently occurring.

            26.07   Contract Supremacy.

            In the case of a conflict between the terms of this Agreement and the terms of the ISO/TO Agreement, the terms of the ISO/TO Agreement shall prevail. In the
case of a conflict between the terms of this Agreement and the terms of ISO/NYSRC Agreement, the terms of the ISO/NYSRC Agreement shall prevail.

            26.08   Force Majeure.

            A Party shall not be considered to be in default or breach under this Agreement, and shall be excused from performance or liability for damages to any other
party, if and to the extent it shall be delayed in or prevented from performing or carrying out any of the provisions of this Agreement, except the obligation to pay any amount when due, arising out of or from any act, omission, or circumstance occasioned
by or in consequence of any act of God, labor disturbance, failure of contractors or suppliers of materials, act of the public enemy, war, invasion, insurrection, riot, fire, storm, flood, ice, explosion, breakage or accident to machinery or equipment or
by any other cause or causes beyond such Party's reasonable control, including any curtailment, order, regulation or restriction imposed by governmental, military or lawfully established civilian authorities, or by the making of repairs necessitated by an
emergency circumstance not limited to those listed above upon the property or equipment of the ISO or any party to the ISO Agreement. Nothing contained in this Article shall relieve any entity of the obligations to make payments when due hereunder or
pursuant to a Service Agreement. Any party claiming a force majeure event shall use reasonable diligence to remove the condition that prevents performance, except the settlement of any labor disturbance shall be in the sole judgment of the affected party.

            26.09   Counterparts.
