                                   ARTICLE 3.
                         SERVICES TO BE PROVIDED BY MAEM

         3.1 BIDDING AND DISPATCH INTO THE PJM. MAEM shall be responsible for
the Bidding and Dispatch of the output of the Generating Stations. Without
limitation, MAEM's Bidding and Dispatch strategies shall be consistent with:

         (i)      the operating parameters and limitations of the Generating
                  Stations;

         (ii)     MIRMA's maintenance plans;

         (iii)    the availability of the Generating Stations (including Fuel
                  handling and storage facilities), as communicated by MIRMA to
                  MAEM;

         (iv)     PJM rules and procedures in effect from time to time;

                                       4
<PAGE>

         (v)      other applicable transmission provider requirements; and

         (vi)     Fuel availability.

         3.2 FUEL SERVICES; AGENCY PERIOD. (a) MAEM will provide all Fuel
necessary for the operation of the Generating Facilities at MAEM's cost, which
shall be calculated as MAEM's actual cost for transportation, inventory and
related costs, as adjusted for any gains or losses on fuel hedges and trading
activities. MAEM will enter into arrangements for the purchase and procurement
of Fuel meeting the specifications for the Generating Stations, coordinate the
scheduling, loading, unloading and storage of Fuel deliveries, maintain Fuel
inventory levels, and perform such other Fuel-related services as MIRMA may
request from time to time, in each case in accordance with Good Utility
Practices.

                  (b)(i) If, at any time, MAEM determines that the
         creditworthiness of MIRMA is impaired, MAEM may, at its sole discretion
         and upon written notice to MIRMA, elect to suspend Fuel procurement
         under SECTION 3.2(a) for a period until such creditworthiness is
         restored (each such period, an "Agency Period"). During any such Agency
         Period, MAEM shall act solely as agent to MIRMA under this Agreement in
         taking the actions set forth in this SECTION 3.2(b).

                  (ii) During any Agency Period, MAEM's sole obligation shall be
         to use commercially reasonable efforts to procure Fuel as agent of and
         for the account of MIRMA, and MAEM shall have no obligation to provide
         credit enhancement to any supplier of MIRMA. MAEM shall have no
         liability to MIRMA if Fuel suppliers do not agree to supply Fuel to
         MIRMA due to a lack of creditworthiness of MIRMA. As agent, MAEM shall
         neither directly purchase or contract for the purchase of, nor take
         title to or possession and control of, any Fuel procured for the
         account of MIRMA, and MAEM shall have no liability to any Fuel supplier
         or MIRMA for nonpayment for or nondelivery of procured Fuels, as
         appropriate. During any Agency Period, as between MAEM and MIRMA, MIRMA
         shall be deemed to have title, exclusive possession and control of all
         procured Fuel at all times, and any risk of loss associated with any
         such procured Fuel shall be born by MIRMA.

                  (iii) Each Agency Period shall continue until MIRMA can
         demonstrate to MAEM that MIRMA's creditworthiness has been restored, as
         reasonably determined by MAEM. After a positive determination as to
         such creditworthiness, the applicable Agency Period shall be terminated
         by MAEM by written notice to MIRMA, and MAEM shall resume procuring
         Fuel for MIRMA under SECTION 3.2(A).

         3.3 EMISSIONS PLANNING AND RELATED RESPONSIBILITIES. MAEM shall provide
MIRMA emissions planning, in consultation with MIRMA, to assist in the
compliance of the Generating Stations at all times and on an ongoing basis with
all currently effective emissions requirements, permits and regulations. MAEM
will procure all Emission Allowances necessary for the operation of the
Generating Stations, and dispose of excess Emission Allowances, which are not
needed for the operation of any other generating stations in the MIRMA Asset
Book. MAEM

                                       5
<PAGE>

will charge MAEM's actual cost of acquiring the Emission Allowances and remit
the proceeds of any Emission Allowances sales to MIRMA, as adjusted for any
gains or losses on emission hedges and trading activities.

         3.4 INSURANCE. MAEM will procure or assist MIRMA in procuring business
interruption insurance and forced outage insurance covering the Generating
Stations. The costs of such insurance will be charged to MIRMA.

         3.5 FINANCIAL PRODUCTS. MAEM will enter into financial products
(including but not limited to, swaps, contracts for differences, options and
weather derivatives) purchased for MIRMA. The gains and losses arising from such
financial products will be borne by MIRMA, and therefore the costs, including
without limitation third party broker costs and transaction fees, and revenues
related to such financial products will be charged to or paid to MIRMA.

         3.6 POWER MARKET TRANSACTIONS. MAEM will enter into third party
bilateral contracts, forward sales, hedges and other transactions for the
benefit of MIRMA. The gains and losses arising from such transactions will be
borne by MIRMA, and therefore the costs of such transactions, including without
limitation, purchased power costs, transmission costs, third party broker costs,
transaction fees and incremental credit costs, and revenues related to such
activities will be charged to or paid to MIRMA.

                                   ARTICLE 4.
                           BONUS, BILLING AND PAYMENT

         4.1 MIRMA ASSET BOOK. MAEM will establish and maintain an asset
management book (the "MIRMA Asset Book") to track and measure the financial
performance of the MIRMA Group assets. The MIRMA Asset Book will be separate
from any MAEM trading book or any other asset book maintained by MAEM for power
resources owned or managed by MAEM.

         4.2 SERVICE FEE. For services rendered by MAEM pursuant to the MIRMA
Group, the fee shall be $604,666.67 per month.

         4.3 BONUS. MAEM will be entitled to a bonus from MIRMA equal to 50% of
the amount by which the Net Market Revenues in any year exceeds the Threshold
Amount for such year, determined as follows:

         "Net Market Revenues" means Gross Revenues MINUS Expenses. Net Market
         Revenues shall be calculated in accordance with GAAP.

         "Gross Revenues" means all revenues for a given year attributed to the
         MIRMA Asset Book, including, without limitation, revenues from (a)
         sales of all PJM Products from the Generating Stations, (b) other sales
         of PJM Products, (c) Fuel sales, (d) sales or trades of excess
         Emissions Allowances from the Generating Stations, (e) financial
         products (including, but not limited to, swaps, contracts for
         differences, options and weather

                                       6
<PAGE>

         derivatives) purchased for the MIRMA Asset Book, and (f) forced outage
         insurance and business interruption insurance proceeds.

         "Expenses" means all costs attributed to the MIRMA Asset Book for such
         year, including (a) costs reimbursed to MAEM for actual costs in
         performing the services including costs for (i) Fuel, (ii) Emissions
         Allowances, (iii) financial products (including, but not limited to,
         swaps, contracts for differences, options, and weather derivatives)
         purchased for the MIRMA Asset Book, (iv) broker and/or transaction
         fees, (v) transmission congestion contracts for sales from the
         Generating Stations, (vi) forced outage insurance costs, (vii)
         incremental credit costs for transactions in the MIRMA Asset Book, and
         (vii) other actual costs in connection with the services described in
         ARTICLE 3 hereof, and (b) the service fee payable to MAEM in accordance
         with SECTION 4.2 hereof.

         "Threshold Amount" means the $896,179,000.00 for the 2001 calendar
         year. The Threshold Amount for subsequent years shall be determined by
         joint agreement between MAEM and the MIRMA Group as a reasonable amount
         based on upon assumptions consistent in all material respects with
         relevant contracts and agreements, historical operations, and the
         parties' good faith projections of future revenues and projections of
         operating expenses for the MIRMA Group in light of the then existing or
         reasonably expected regulatory and market environments in the markets
         in which the facilities or other assets owned by the MIRMA Group will
         be operated.

         The bonus shall not be payable until the Threshold Amount is reached.
Upon reaching the Threshold Amount, such bonus will be paid on a monthly basis
in accordance with SECTION 4.4 hereof. MAEM acknowledges that any bonus payments
to be made hereunder shall be subordinated, pursuant to Sections 6.6 and 6.8 of
the Participation Agreements, to MIRMA's payment obligations under the Facility
Lease Agreements.

         4.4 BILLING AND PAYMENT. MAEM shall pay MIRMA any Net Market Revenues
due for the prior month by wire transfer to the payment address provided by
MIRMA on or before the twentieth (20th) day of each month, or if such day is not
a business day, the immediately following business day. At the time of each
monthly payment, MAEM shall render to MIRMA a statement detailing the Net Market
Revenues for the prior month, and shall provide MIRMA with reasonable supporting
documentation for each such monthly statement, identifying with reasonable
specificity calculations underlying such Net Market Revenues. All payments
between MAEM and MIRMA will be netted so that MAEM pays MIRMA the Net Market
Revenues minus any bonus payable pursuant to SECTION 4.3. MAEM will pay MIRMA
the Net Market Revenues (net of any bonus), and MIRMA will then distribute such
revenues in accordance with the provision of the Agency Agreement dated of even
date herewith between the members of the MIRMA Group.

         4.5 REPORTS. MIRMA and MAEM will cooperate to provide monthly reports
in reasonable detail showing the calculation of the Net Market Revenues, with
appropriate breakdown by generating unit and station, to enable MIRMA to
allocate Net Market Revenues and bonus payments to MAEM, if any, among the
members of the MIRMA Group. MIRMA and

                                       7
<PAGE>

the other members of the MIRMA Group will have the right, upon reasonable
notice, to examine and/or audit the MIRMA Asset Book from time to time.

         4.6 INTEREST AND DISPUTED AMOUNTS. If either Party fails to make any
payment on or before the applicable payment due date, such overdue amounts shall
accrue interest at the Interest Rate from, and including, the applicable payment
due date to, but excluding, the date of payment. Any disputed invoiced amounts,
except amounts which are manifestly inaccurate, shall be paid in full on the
applicable payment due date, subject to later return together with interest
accrued at the Interest Rate. Overpayments or underpayments identified by the
Parties shall be returned or credited, together with interest accrued at the
Interest Rate, to their rightful owners in the first following month.

                                   ARTICLE 5.

Party obtaining knowledge of the false and misleading nature of the statement.

         5.2 REMEDIES. The Parties shall have the following remedies available
to them hereunder:

obligations under this Agreement because of a Force Majeure event, that Party

CONFLICTS OF LAW THAT WOULD OTHERWISE CAUSE THE LAW OF ANY STATE OTHER THAN NEW
YORK TO APPLY.

sole discretion and upon written notice to the Project Companies, elect to
suspend fuel procurement under the Fuel Supply Agreements for a period until

as agent of and for the account of the Project Companies, and MAEM shall have no
obligation to provide credit enhancement to any supplier of the Project
Companies. MAEM shall have no liability to either of the Project Companies if
fuel suppliers do not agree to supply fuel to the Project Companies due to a
lack of creditworthiness of the Project Companies. As agent, MAEM shall neither
directly purchase or contract for the purchase of, nor take title to or
possession and control of, any fuel procured for the account of the Project
Companies, and MAEM shall have no liability to any fuel supplier or the Project
Companies for nonpayment for or nondelivery of procured fuels, as appropriate.

procured fuel at all times, and any risk of loss associated with any such
procured fuel shall be born by the Project Companies.

         4.3 TERMINATION OF AGENCY PERIOD. Each Agency Period shall continue
until the Project Companies can demonstrate to MAEM that the Project Companies'
creditworthiness has been restored, as reasonably determined by MAEM. After a
positive determination as to such creditworthiness, the applicable Agency Period
shall be terminated by MAEM by written notice to Project Companies, and MAEM
shall resume procuring fuel for the Project Companies under the Fuel Supply
Agreements.

                           BONUS, BILLING AND PAYMENT

         5.1 NEW ENGLAND ASSET BOOK. MAEM will establish and maintain an asset
management book (the "New England Asset Book") to track and measure the
financial performance of the Project Companies assets. The New England Asset
Book will be separate from any MAEM trading book or any other asset book
maintained by MAEM for power resources owned or managed by MAEM.

         5.2 BONUS.

         (a) MAEM will be entitled to a bonus from the Project Companies equal
to the Bonus Percentage of the amount by which the Net Market Revenues in any
year exceeds the Threshold Amount for such year, determined as follows:

         "Net Market Revenues" means all revenues for a given year attributed to
         the New England Asset Book and actually received by MAEM, including,
         without limitation, payments for sales of capacity, energy and
         ancillary services, fuel and fuel transportation rights, and hedges and
         other risk management instruments entered into by MAEM on behalf of the
         Project Companies MINUS all costs attributed to the asset books for
         such year, including costs reimbursed to MAEM for fuel and services and
         MINUS all Through-Put Charges under Section 4.3 of the Canal Fuel
         Supply Agreement. Net Market Revenues shall be calculated in accordance
         with GAAP.

         "Threshold Amount" means $88,051,000.00 for 2001.

         "Bonus Percentage" means 50% for 2001.

         (b) If this Agreement is extended pursuant to ARTICLE 2 hereof, the
Threshold Amount and Bonus Percentage for subsequent years shall be determined
by mutual agreement between MAEM and the Project Companies as a reasonable
amount based on upon assumptions consistent in all material respects with
relevant contracts and agreements, historical operations, and the parties' good
faith projections of future revenues and projections of operating expenses for
the Project Companies in light of the then existing or reasonably expected
regulatory and market environments in the markets in which the facilities or
other assets owned by the Project Companies will be operated.

         (c) The bonus shall not be payable until the Threshold Amount is
reached. Upon reaching the Threshold Amount, such bonus will be paid on a
monthly basis in accordance with SECTION 5.3 hereof.

         5.3 BILLING AND PAYMENT. MAEM shall pay the Project Companies any Net
Market Revenues due for the prior month by wire transfer to the payment address
provided by the Project Companies on or before the twentieth (20th) day of each
month, or if such day is not a business day, the immediately following business
day. At the time of each monthly payment, MAEM shall

                                       6
<PAGE>

render to the Project Companies a statement detailing the Net Market Revenues
for the prior month, and shall provide the Project Companies with reasonable
supporting documentation for each such monthly statement, identifying with
reasonable specificity calculations underlying such Net Market Revenues. All
payments between MAEM and the Project Companies will be netted so that MAEM pays
the Project Companies the Net Market Revenues minus any bonus payable pursuant
to SECTION 5.2.

         5.4 REPORTS. The Project Companies and MAEM will cooperate to provide
monthly reports in reasonable detail showing the calculation of the Net Market
Revenues, with appropriate breakdown by generating unit and station, to enable
the Project Companies to allocate Net Market Revenues and bonus payments to
MAEM, if any, between the Project Companies. Each of the Project Companies will
have the right, upon reasonable notice, to examine and/or audit the New England
Asset Book from time to time.

         5.5 INTEREST AND DISPUTED AMOUNTS. If any Party fails to make any
payment on or before the applicable payment due date, such overdue amounts shall
accrue interest at the Interest Rate from, and including, the applicable payment
due date to, but excluding, the date of payment. Any disputed invoiced amounts,
except amounts which are manifestly inaccurate, shall be paid in full on the
applicable payment due date, subject to later return together with interest
accrued at the Interest Rate. Overpayments or underpayments identified by the
Parties shall be returned or credited, together with interest accrued at the
Interest Rate, to their rightful owners in the first following month.

                                   ARTICLE 6.

of such default;

         (c) a Bankruptcy Proceeding has occurred with respect to such Party; or

         (d) a representation or warranty made by such Party herein shall have

Default shall have occurred if such Party is diligently pursuing such correction
and such representation or warranty is corrected within thirty (30) days of such
Party obtaining knowledge of the false and misleading nature of the statement.

to them hereunder:

         (a) Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default by either Party
hereunder, the non-defaulting Party shall have the right (i) to collect all
amounts then or thereafter due to it from the defaulting Party hereunder, and
(ii) upon written notice to the other Party, to terminate this Agreement at any
time during the continuation of such Event of Default. The terminating Party
shall have all rights and remedies available to it under applicable law, subject
to the limitations set forth in SECTION 8.7.

         (b) Without limiting the foregoing, any unexcused breach of this
Agreement or failure of either Party to perform its obligations hereunder shall
subject such Party to the payment of actual damages to the other Party,
regardless of any cure period.

                                   ARTICLE 7.
                                  FORCE MAJEURE

         If either Party is rendered wholly or partly unable to perform its
obligations under this Agreement because of a Force Majeure event, that Party
will be excused from whatever performance is affected by the Force Majeure event
to the extent so affected, provided that (a) the non-performing Party, as soon
as practical after knowing of the occurrence of the Force Majeure event, gives
the other Party written notice describing the particulars of the occurrence; (b)
the suspension of performance is of no greater scope and of no longer duration
than is reasonably required by the Force Majeure event; (c) the non-performing
Party uses commercially reasonable efforts to overcome or mitigate the effects
of such occurrence; and (d) when the non-performing Party is able to resume
performance of its obligations hereunder, that Party shall give the other Party
written notice to that effect and shall promptly resume such performance.

                                   ARTICLE 8.

withheld. Any assignments or delegations by either Party shall be in such form
as to assure that such Party's obligations under this Agreement will be honored
fully and timely by any succeeding party.

respective business. Nothing herein shall be deemed a waiver of the Parties'
right to challenge the validity of any such law, rule or regulation.

         8.5 ENTIRE AGREEMENT. This Agreement sets forth the entire agreement of
the Parties with respect to the subject matter herein and takes precedence over
all prior understandings. This Agreement may not be amended except by a writing
signed by the Parties. The Parties agree to take such further actions and
execute such documents and instruments as they may deem necessary or desirable
in connection with the terms of this Agreement.

         8.6 SEVERABILITY. The invalidity or unenforceability of any provisions
of this Agreement shall not affect the other provisions hereof. If any provision
of this Agreement is held

                                       9

to be invalid, such provisions shall not be severed from this Agreement;
instead, the scope of the rights and duties created thereby shall be reduced by
the smallest extent necessary to conform such provision to the applicable law,
preserving to the greatest extent the intent of the Parties to create such
rights and duties as set out herein. If necessary to preserve the intent of the
Parties hereto, the Parties shall negotiate in good faith to amend this
Agreement, adopting a substitute provision for the one deemed invalid or
unenforceable that is legally binding and enforceable and which restores to the
two Parties to the greatest extent possible the benefit of their respective
bargains on the Effective Date.

         8.7 LIMITATION ON DAMAGES. NEITHER PARTY SHALL BE ENTITLED TO RECOVER
SPECIAL, INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, CONSEQUENTIAL OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES HEREUNDER.

         IN WITNESS WHEREOF, and intending to be legally bound hereby, the
Parties hereto have caused this Agreement to be duly executed as an instrument
under seal by their respective duly authorized officers as of the date and year
first above written.
