      BUY-BACK
ARRANGEMENTS INCLUDING PURCHASE OF THE LOAN

       

       

      2.1 Notice of
Default.

       

        If
the Lenders send notice of any Event of Default on the Loan to Borrower, the
Lenders shall give TVA comparable, timely, concurrent notice of such default as
specified in Section 6.4 of this Agreement below.

       

       

      2.2 Buy-Back
Arrangements.

       

        Section
5 of the JOA, as amended by Supplement No. 1 and Supplement No. 2 thereto,
is incorporated herein by reference and the arrangements provided for by said
Section shall be deemed to be separate Buy-Back Arrangements agreed to by the
parties to this Agreement.  TVA and the Lenders expressly recognize
that under circumstances as defined in the JOA (“Buy-Back
Option”), said Section 5 grants to Lenders, Borrower, Guarantor, and TVA
certain specified rights to trigger a Buy-Back under which TVA would be
obligated to purchase the Loan from the Lenders as a part of repurchasing the
Leased Premises from Borrower.  It is further expressly recognized and
agreed that as provided for in Section 6 of Supplement No. 1 to the JOA and in
Section 8.20 of the Credit Agreement, Lenders are obligated to cooperate with
TVA in enforcing any exercise of the Buy-Back Arrangements and in consummating
any Buy-Back Closing (as provided for in both the JOA and the separate Buy-Back
Arrangements of this Section 2.2), by

       

      
        
          
            8017069.8

          

           

        

        
           

          
            

          

        

        
           

        

      

      (i) promptly
executing all documents necessary to confirm TVA’s purchase of the Loan under
Section 5(e) of the JOA as amended Supplement No. 1 thereto, (ii) not
opposing the exercise of said Buy-Back Arrangements and the consummation of said
Buy-Back Closing, and (iii) not opposing any motion to lift the stay or any
other action in bankruptcy to allow exercise of said Buy-Back Arrangements and
the consummation of said Buy-Back Closing.  Finally, TVA and the
Lenders also expressly recognize and agree that purchase of the Loan by TVA
pursuant to JOA Section 5(e)(i) and Section 2.3 below is a precondition to the
actions described in JOA Sections 5(e)(ii) and 5(e)(iii).

       

       

      2.3 Purchase of
the Loan.

       

      (A) Except
as described in Section 2.3(B), so long as any Loan Indebtedness is outstanding,
upon any exercise of a Buy-Back Option, including upon the occurrence of one or
more Events of Default, and regardless of whether consummation of such Buy-Back
Option at such time is stayed by a bankruptcy court at the election of the
Administrative Agent exercised by its delivery to each of the Borrower, TVA, and
the Escrow Agent of a Loan Purchase Notice, each Lender shall sell all of its
interest in, and TVA shall purchase all of, the Loan Rights, for the Purchase
Price (as set forth in a Purchase Price Notice delivered by the Administrative
Agent to TVA, which shall be conclusive evidence of the amounts due and owing to
the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, absent manifest error), which shall be
paid by TVA to the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Administrative
Agent and the Lenders in immediately available funds electronically transmitted
no later than twenty (20) Business Days after the Loan Purchase Notice is
received by TVA.

       

      (B) TVA
and the Lenders expressly recognize that JOA Section 5(c) provides that if a
Buy-Back Option has not been exercised by the end of the period provided in the
JOA for such exercise, an automatic exercise of a Buy-Back Option shall be
deemed to occur.  Accordingly, if any Loan Indebtedness is outstanding
on the Maturity Date, each Lender shall sell all of its interest in, and TVA
shall purchase all of, the Loan Rights, for the Purchase Price, which shall be
paid by TVA to the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Administrative
Agent and the Lenders in immediately available funds electronically transmitted
on the Maturity Date.

       

      (C) Any
payment by TVA to the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Administrative
Agent and the Lenders under this Agreement shall also be deemed to be a payment
by TVA to the Administrative Agent and Lenders.  TVA is not
responsible, and shall not be held responsible, for any failure or delay by the
Administrative Agent to make any payment of funds received from TVA to any
Lender or other third party.

       

       

      2.4 Closing and
Escrow of Transfer Documents.

       

       

      (A)  The
closing of the Loan Purchase will be effected at the offices of the Escrow Agent
by the delivery to TVA by the Escrow Agent, on behalf of all the Lenders, of all
Transfer Documents and Notes upon the Escrow Agent’s receipt of written notice
from the Administrative Agent that it has received payment of immediately
available funds equal to the full Purchase Price.  All of the Loan
Rights shall be transferred to and purchased by TVA and paid for in a single
closing.

       

      
        
          
            8017069.8

          

           

        

        
           

          
            

          

        

        
           

        

      

      

       

      (B)
So as to effectuate a Loan Purchase as soon as possible after the Administrative
Agent has elected to trigger a Loan Purchase, the Administrative Agent, the
current Lenders and TVA have executed the Transfer Documents and delivered them,
along with the Notes, to the Escrow Agent for it to hold pursuant to the terms
of the Escrow Agreement.  Each Lender party hereto irrevocably
authorizes the Administrative Agent, without further notice to, or consent or
authorization from, any Lender, to instruct the Escrow Agent to take all actions
necessary and appropriate to effect a Loan Purchase, including, without
limitation, dating and delivering to TVA all of the Transfer Documents, together
with the Notes.  Any future Lender that joins the Credit Agreement by
assignment of an interest in all or a portion of another Lender’s Loan Rights
will be required, as a condition to such assignment and simultaneously
therewith, to join into this Agreement by executing a counterpart of the same
and to deliver to the Escrow Agent all Notes and Transfer Documents for such
Lender’s interest in the Loan Rights for retention by the Escrow Agent pursuant
to the Escrow Agreement.

       

       

      (C)  Pursuant
to the Escrow Agreement, after delivery of the Loan Purchase Notice, the
Administrative Agent will direct the Escrow Agent to date the Transfer Documents
as of the closing date and to deliver to TVA all of the Transfer Documents,
together with the Notes, upon receipt by the Escrow Agent of written notice from
the Administrative Agent that it has received payment of immediately available
funds equal to the full Purchase Price.  The Administrative Agent will
receive such Purchase Price for the benefit of the Lenders.  Upon the
Escrow Agent’s receipt of written notice from the Administrative Agent that it
has received payment of immediately available funds equal to the full Purchase
Price, the Escrow Agent shall immediately deliver to TVA all of the Transfer
Documents and Notes.

       

       

      2.5 Escrow of
Notes.

       

        In
addition to the Transfer Documents, each Lender has delivered to the Escrow
Agent possession of its respective Note(s) from the
Borrower.  Notwithstanding the delivery of the Note(s) to the Escrow
Agent, each Lender retains all rights under the Credit Agreement and the Notes,
and all payments and dealings with respect to the Notes are to continue as
provided in the Credit Agreement, as if the Notes were not held in escrow, until
this Agreement and the Escrow Agreement have been terminated.

written consent shall not affect or be binding upon TVA or increase, alter,

any failure of such a party to exercise any right hereunder shall not be

any time, and from time to time, thereafter.

      6.5 Severability.

        The
invalidity, illegality, or unenforceability in any jurisdiction of any provision
under this Agreement shall not affect or impair the remaining provisions in this
Agreement or any such invalid, unenforceable, or illegal provision in any
jurisdiction in which it is not invalid, unenforceable, or illegal.

       

       

      6.6 Governing
Law.

        This
Agreement shall, to the extent not inconsistent with Federal law, be governed by
and shall be construed and enforced in accordance with the internal laws of the
State of New York without regard to conflicts of law principles that require or
permit application of the laws of any other state or jurisdiction.

       

       

      6.7 Successors and
Assigns.

        This
Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto,
each of the Incremental Term Loan Lenders (as defined in the Credit Agreement)
and their respective successors and assigns; provided,
however,
that (a) without the prior specific written consent of TVA, neither the
Administrative Agent nor any Lender may assign any of its rights or delegate any
of its duties under this Agreement and (b) without the prior specific written
consent of the Administrative Agent and each Lender, TVA may not assign any of
its rights or delegate any of its duties under this Agreement; provided,
however, that TVA’s consent to any such assignment shall not be required in
connection with an assignment by any Lender of all or a portion of its Loan
Commitments or Loans in accordance with the terms of the Credit Agreement and
Section 2.4(B) of this Agreement.

       

       

      6.8 Construction.

        The
Administrative Agent, each Lender, and TVA acknowledge that each of them has had
the benefit of legal counsel of its own choice and has been afforded an
opportunity to review this Agreement with its legal counsel and that this
Agreement shall be construed as if jointly drafted by the Administrative Agent,
each Lender, and TVA.

       

       

      6.9 Remedies.

        The
rights and remedies specified in any provision of this Agreement are in addition
to all other rights and remedies that TVA, the Administrative Agent, and the
Lenders may have, including any right to equitable relief and any right to sue
for damages as a result of a breach of this Agreement (whether or not any such
party elects to terminate this Agreement), and all such rights and remedies are
cumulative.  Without limiting the foregoing, no exercise of a remedy
shall be deemed an election excluding any other remedy (any such claim by any
party to this Agreement being hereby waived).  Each party to this
Agreement acknowledges and agrees that in the event it fails to fulfill its
obligations under this Agreement, each party to this Agreement affected by such
failure would suffer irreparable harm and damages would not be an adequate
remedy, and accordingly such affected parties shall be entitled to an injunction
or injunctions to prevent a breach of this Agreement and to enforce specifically
the terms and provisions of this Agreement.

      6.10 Consent to
Jurisdiction and Service of Process.

      

       

      (A)           The
parties to this Agreement hereby irrevocably submit to the non-exclusive
jurisdiction of any United States Federal Court, Southern District of New York
with respect to any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this
Agreement, the Escrow Agreement, or any Loan Documents.  Each such
party hereby irrevocably agrees that all claims in respect of such action or
proceeding may be heard and determined in such courts and irrevocably waives any
objection it may now or hereafter have as to the venue of any such suit, action,
or proceeding brought in any such court, personal jurisdiction of such courts,
or that such court is an inconvenient forum.  Nothing herein shall
limit the right of any such party to bring proceedings against any other such
party or parties in the courts of any other jurisdiction.

       

      (b)           Each
party to this Agreement hereby agrees that service of the summons and complaint
and all other process that may be served in any such suit, action, or proceeding
may be effected by mailing by registered mail, return receipt requested, a copy
of such process to TVA at the address to which notices to TVA are then to be
sent pursuant to Section
6.4 and, with respect to such a party not listed in Section 6.4, pursuant
to any other notice provision in the Credit Agreement or any of the Loan
Documents, and that personal service of process shall not be
required.  Nothing herein shall be construed to prohibit service of
process by any other method permitted by law.

       

      6.11 Waiver of Jury
Trial.

        TVA,
the Administrative Agent, and each Lender hereby waive their respective rights
to a jury trial of any claim or cause of action based upon or arising out of
this Agreement, any of the other Loan Documents, or any dealings between them
relating to the subject matter of this Agreement. The scope of this waiver is
intended to be all-encompassing of any and all disputes that may be filed in any
court and that relate to the subject matter of this Agreement, including without
limitation, contract claims, tort claims, breach of duty claims, and all other
common law and statutory claims.  TVA, the Administrative Agent, and
each Lender acknowledge that this waiver is a material inducement to enter into
a business relationship, that each has already relied on the waiver in entering
into this Agreement, and that each will continue to rely on the waiver in their
related future dealings.  TVA, the Administrative Agent, and each
Lender further warrant and represent that each has reviewed this waiver with its
legal counsel, and that each knowingly and voluntarily waives its jury trial
rights following consultation with legal counsel.  This waiver is
irrevocable, meaning that it may not be modified either orally or in writing,
and the waiver shall apply to any subsequent amendments, renewals, supplements,
or modifications to this Agreement, the Loan Documents, or to any other
documents or agreements relating to the Loan. In the event of litigation, this
Agreement may be filed as a written consent to a trial by the
court.  TVA, the Administrative Agent, and each Lender also waive any
bond or surety or security upon such bond that might, but for this waiver, be
required of the Administrative Agent and each Lender.

      6.12 Survival of
Warranties and Agreements.

        All
agreements, representations, and warranties made herein shall survive the
execution and delivery of this Agreement.

       

       

      6.13 Entire
Agreement.

        This
Agreement and the exhibits attached hereto embody the final, entire agreement
among the parties hereto and supersede any and all prior commitments,
agreements, representations, understandings, whether oral or written, relating
to the subject matter hereof and may not be contradicted or varied by evidence
of prior, contemporaneous, or subsequent oral agreements or discussions of the
parties hereto.

       

       

      6.14 Counterparts;
Effectiveness.

        This
Agreement and any amendments, waivers, consents, or supplements may be executed
in any number of counterparts and by different parties hereto in separate
counterparts, each of which when so executed and delivered shall be deemed an
original, but all of which counterparts together shall constitute but one and
the same instrument.  This Agreement shall become effective upon the
execution of a counterpart hereof by each of the parties hereto.

       

       

      6.15 Waiver.

        No
waiver by any party of one or more defaults in the performance of this Agreement
shall operate or be construed as a waiver of any future default or defaults,
whether of a like kind or different character.

      EXHIBIT
A

      

      Form of
Assignment and Assumption Agreement

      

      This
Assignment and Assumption (the “Assignment
and Assumption”) is dated as of the Effective Date set forth below and is
entered into by and between the Assignor identified in item 1 below (the “Assignor”)
and the Assignee identified in item 2 below (the “Assignee”).  Capitalized
terms used but not defined herein shall have the meanings given to them in the
Credit Agreement identified below (as amended, the “Credit
Agreement”), receipt of a copy of which is hereby acknowledged by the
Assignee.  The Standard Terms and Conditions set forth in Annex 1
attached hereto are hereby agreed to and incorporated herein by reference and
made a part of this Assignment and Assumption as if set forth herein in
full.

      

      For
an agreed consideration, the Assignor hereby irrevocably sells and assigns to
the Assignee, and the Assignee hereby irrevocably purchases and assumes from the
Assignor, subject to and in accordance with the Standard Terms and Conditions
and the Credit Agreement, as of the Effective Date set forth below (i) all of
the Assignor’s rights and obligations in its capacity as a Lender under the
Credit Agreement and any other documents or instruments delivered pursuant
thereto to the extent related to the amount and percentage interest identified
below of all of such outstanding rights and obligations of the Assignor under
the respective facilities identified below and (ii) to the extent permitted to
be assigned under applicable law, all claims, suits, causes of action and any
other right of the Assignor (in its capacity as a Lender) against any Person,
whether known or unknown, arising under or in connection with the Credit
Agreement, any other documents or instruments delivered pursuant thereto or the
loan transactions governed thereby or in any way based on or related to any of
the foregoing, including, but not limited to, contract claims, tort claims,
malpractice claims, statutory claims and all other claims at law or in equity
related to the rights and obligations sold and assigned pursuant to clause (i)
above, but excluding all rights of the Assignor against the Borrower and the
Guarantor under Section 8.1 of the Credit Agreement (the “Reserved
Indemnity Rights”) (the rights and obligations sold and assigned by the
Assignor to the Assignee pursuant to clauses (i) and (ii) above, but excluding
the Reserved Indemnity Rights, being referred to herein collectively as the
“Assigned
Interest”); provided,
that the Assignee shall have no liability for or be under any obligation with
respect to such Reserved Indemnity Rights.  Each such sale and
assignment is without recourse to the Assignor and, except as expressly provided
in this Assignment and Assumption, without representation or warranty by the
Assignor.

      The
Parties hereby appoint and designate the Escrow Agent as the escrow agent to
receive, hold, and distribute the Escrow Documents in accordance with the terms
of this Agreement.  The Escrow Agent hereby accepts such appointment
and agrees to hold the Escrow Documents in safekeeping and release and transfer

deliver the Escrow Documents to the Escrow Agent contemporaneously with the

necessary and appropriate to effect a Loan Purchase, including, without
limitation, dating and delivering to TVA all of the Loan Purchase

Credit Agreement and any Incremental Term Loan Lender will be required, as a
condition to such assignment or establishment of an Incremental Term Loan
Facility, as applicable, to deliver to the Administrative Agent, who in turn
shall deliver to the Escrow Agent, (i) each of the Loan Purchase Documents and

Credit Agreement, the assigning Lender shall deliver to the Administrative
Agent, who in turn shall deliver to the Escrow Agent, an assignment and
assumption agreement in the form attached to the Buy-Back Arrangements Agreement
as Exhibit A reflecting such assigning Lender’s reduced pro rata share of such
rights and obligations, which shall supersede and replace in its entirety any
prior assignment and assumption agreement  delivered by such Lender to
the Escrow Agent (which prior assignment and assumption agreement shall be
identified with specificity in a written notice from the Administrative Agent
accompanying the replacement assignment and assumption
agreement).

      THE
ESCROW AGENT

       

      9.1 Escrow
Agent.

       

        The
Escrow Agent shall be obligated for the performance of only such duties as are
specifically set forth in this Agreement and may rely and shall be protected in
acting or refraining from acting on any written notice, request, waiver,
consent, or instrument furnished to it in accordance with the terms of this
Agreement and reasonably believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed or
presented by the proper party or parties.  The Escrow Agent shall have
no duty to determine or inquire into the happening or occurrence of any event or
contingency, and it is agreed that its duties are purely ministerial in
nature.  The Escrow Agent may consult with and obtain advice from
legal counsel as to any provision hereof or its duties
hereunder.  Except for gross negligence or willful misconduct, the
Escrow Agent shall not be liable for any action taken or omitted by it in good
faith and reasonably believed by it to be authorized hereby, nor for action
taken or omitted by it in accordance with the advice of its counsel. Anything in
this Agreement notwithstanding, in no event shall the Escrow Agent be liable for
special, indirect, or consequential loss or damage of any kind whatsoever
(including but not limited to lost profits), even if the Escrow Agent has been
advised of such loss or damage and regardless of the form of
action.

      9.2 Indemnification.

       

      (A) TVA,
Seven States and each of the Lenders jointly and severally agree to indemnify,
defend and hold the Escrow Agent, its officers, directors, partners, employees
and agents (each, an “Indemnified
Party”) harmless from and against any and all losses, claims, damages,
demands, expenses and costs, causes of action, judgments or liabilities that may
be incurred by the Indemnified Parties arising directly or indirectly out of or
in connection with the Escrow Agent’s acceptance or appointment as Escrow Agent
hereunder, including the out-of-pocket  legal costs and expenses as
such expenses are incurred (including, without limitation, the expenses of any
experts, counsel or agents) of investigating, preparing for or defending itself
against any action, claim or liability in connection with its performance
hereunder.  In no
event, however, shall TVA, Seven States or any of the Lenders be obligated to
indemnify the Indemnified Parties and save the Indemnified Parties harmless from
any fees, expenses, charges and/or liabilities incurred by the Indemnified
Parties as a result of their own willful misconduct or gross
negligence.

       

      (B) The
Parties agree that neither the payment by TVA, Seven States or any of the
Lenders of any claim by the Escrow Agent for indemnification hereunder shall
impair, limit, modify, or affect, as between TVA, Seven States and the Lenders,
the respective rights and obligations of TVA, Seven States and the Lenders under
this Agreement, the Buy-Back Arrangements Agreement or the Credit
Agreement.  TVA, Seven States and the Lenders agree solely among
themselves that any obligation for indemnification under this Section
3.2 shall be borne by TVA, Seven States and the Lenders in proportion to
each Party’s respective responsibility, if any, of such loss, damage, liability,
cost or expense for which the Escrow Agent is entitled to indemnification, the
causation to be determined by mutual agreement, arbitration (if TVA, Seven
States and the Lenders agree in writing to submit the dispute to arbitration) or
litigation; provided,
however,
that if no such Party is determined to be responsible for such loss, damage,
liability, cost or expense, any obligation for indemnification under this Section
3.2 shall be borne equally between TVA, Seven States and the
Lenders.

       

      (C) The
Parties agree and acknowledge that the terms of this Section 3.2 shall survive
the resignation or removal of the Escrow Agent as provided herein or the
termination of this Agreement.

      9.3 Resignation of
Escrow Agent.

       

        The
Escrow Agent may resign from the performance of its duties hereunder at any time
by giving at least fifteen (15) Business Days’ prior written notice to TVA, the
Administrative Agent, and Seven States or may be removed, with or without cause,
by TVA, the Administrative Agent, and Seven States, acting jointly, at any time
by the giving of fifteen (15) Business Days’ prior written notice to the Escrow
Agent, and in either the event of such resignation or removal, such written
notice shall specify the date by which such resignation or removal is intended
to take effect.  Such resignation or removal shall take effect,
however, only upon the appointment of a successor escrow agent as provided
herein, and no such resignation or removal shall be effective until a successor
escrow agent succeeds to and becomes vested with all the rights, powers,
privileges, and duties of the retiring Escrow Agent.  Upon any such
notice of resignation or removal, TVA, the Administrative Agent, and Seven
States, acting jointly, shall appoint a successor escrow agent hereunder, which
shall be a commercial bank, trust company or other financial institution with a
combined capital and surplus in excess of $100,000,000, unless otherwise agreed
by TVA, the Administrative Agent, and Seven States as evidenced by written
instructions executed by TVA, the Administrative Agent and Seven
States.  Upon the acceptance in writing of any appointment as the
Escrow Agent hereunder by a successor escrow agent, such successor escrow agent
shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers,
privileges, and duties of the retiring Escrow Agent, and the retiring Escrow
Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations under this Agreement,
but shall not be discharged from any liability for actions taken as the Escrow
Agent hereunder prior to such succession.  After any retiring Escrow
Agent’s resignation or removal, the provisions of this Agreement shall inure to
its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was
the Escrow Agent under this Agreement.  Notwithstanding anything to
the contrary herein, if the Escrow Agent provides notice of resignation and a
successor Escrow Agent has not been appointed within forty-five (45) days
thereafter, the Escrow Agent shall be entitled to deliver all property held
hereunder into the registry of any court of competent jurisdiction in New York
and thereupon the Escrow Agent shall be discharged from all further duties as
Escrow Agent hereunder.

       

      9.4 Receipt.

       

        By
its execution of this Agreement, the Escrow Agent acknowledges receipt of the
Escrow Documents.

      9.5 Fees.

       

        TVA,
Seven States, and the Lenders shall compensate the Escrow Agent for its services
hereunder in accordance with Exhibit E
attached hereto and, in addition, shall reimburse the Escrow Agent for all of
its reasonable out-of-pocket expenses, including attorneys’ fees, travel
expenses, postage, copying charges, and the like (collectively, the “Fees”)
in accordance with such Exhibit
E.  All of the compensation and reimbursement obligations set
forth in this Section
3.5 shall be payable upon demand by the Escrow Agent and, with respect to
the Escrow Agent, shall be a joint and several obligation of TVA, Seven States
and the Lenders.  TVA, Seven States, and the Lenders agree, solely
among themselves, that (i) the Fees shall be borne equally among TVA, Seven
States, and the Lenders, and (ii) if any such Party shall pay more than its
share of such Fees, such Party shall have a right of contribution from the other
with respect to such Fees paid by that Party.  The obligations of TVA,
Seven States, and the Lenders under this Section
3.5 shall survive any termination of this Agreement and the resignation
or removal of the Escrow Agent.

      10.7 Consent to
Jurisdiction.

       

        (A)                   Each
of the Parties hereby irrevocably consents and agrees that any action, suit, or
proceeding arising in connection with any disagreement, dispute, controversy, or
claim arising out of or relating to this Agreement or any related document that
involves the Escrow Agent (for purposes of this Section, a “Legal
Dispute”) shall be brought only to the exclusive jurisdiction of the
courts of the State of New York or the federal courts located in the State of
New York.  The Parties agree that, after a Legal Dispute is before a
court as specified in this Section 4.7
and during the pendency of such Legal Dispute before such court, all actions,
suits, or proceedings with respect to such Legal Dispute or any other Legal
Dispute, including, without limitation, any counterclaim, cross-claim, or
interpleader, shall be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of such
court.  Each of the Parties hereby waives, and agrees not to assert,
as a defense in any Legal Dispute, that it is not subject thereto or that such
action, suit or proceeding may not be brought or is not maintainable in such
court or that its property is exempt or immune from execution, that the action,
suit or proceeding is brought in an inconvenient forum or that the venue of the
action, suit, or proceeding is improper.  Each Party irrevocably
waives the right to trial by jury.  Each Party agrees that a final
judgment in any action, suit, or proceeding described in this Section
4.7 after the expiration of any period permitted for appeal and subject
to any stay during appeal shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other
jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by
applicable Laws.  Except as otherwise provided herein, any action,
suit, or proceeding arising in connection with any disagreement, dispute,
controversy, or claim arising out of or relating to the Credit Agreement, the
Joint Ownership Agreement, the Buy-Back Arrangements Agreement or any related
document that does not
involve the Escrow Agent shall be resolved in accordance with the dispute
resolution procedures provided in the Credit Agreement, the Joint Ownership
Agreement, the Buy-Back Arrangements Agreement or such related document, or if
no dispute resolutions procedures are provided in such related document, by any
court having venue and jurisdiction with respect to such disagreement, dispute,
controversy, or claim.

       

      (B)                   Each
Party to this Agreement hereby agrees that service of the summons and complaint
and all other process that may be served in any such suit, action, or proceeding
may be effected by mailing by registered mail, return receipt requested, a copy
of such process to the address of such Party set forth
herein.  Nothing herein shall be construed to prohibit service of
process by any other method permitted by law.

      10.8 Severability.

       

        Any
provision of this Agreement that is prohibited or unenforceable in any
jurisdiction will, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such
prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions of
this Agreement, and any such prohibition or unenforceability in any jurisdiction
will not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other
jurisdiction.  To the extent permitted by Law, the Parties waive any
provision of Law that renders any such provision prohibited or unenforceable in
any respect.

       

      10.9 Counterparts.

       

        This
Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts, each of which will be
deemed an original, and it will not be necessary in making proof of this
Agreement or the terms of this Agreement to produce or account for more than one
of such counterparts, provided that a counterpart is executed by the Party
against whom enforcement is sought.

       

      10.10 Waiver.

       

        Any
agreement on the part of a Party to any extension or waiver of any provision of
this Agreement will be valid only if set forth in an instrument in writing
signed on behalf of such Party.  A waiver by a Party of the
performance of any covenant, agreement, obligation, condition, representation,
or warranty will not be construed as a waiver of any other covenant, agreement,
obligation, condition, representation, or warranty.  A waiver by any
Party of the performance of any act will not constitute a waiver of the
performance of any other act or an identical act required to be performed at a
later time.

       

      10.11 Integration.

       

        This
Agreement and the documents executed pursuant to this Agreement supersede all
negotiations, agreements, and understandings among the Parties with respect to
the subject matter of this Agreement.

       

      10.12 Force
Majeure.

       

      No
party to this Agreement shall be liable to any other party for losses due to, or

      In
the event transfer instructions are given (other than in writing at the time of
execution of this Agreement), whether in writing, by facsimile or otherwise, the
Escrow Agent is authorized to seek confirmation of such instructions by
telephone call-back to the person or persons designated on Exhibit
F  hereto and the Escrow Agent may rely upon the confirmation
of anyone purporting to be the person or persons so designated.  Each
transfer instruction shall be executed by an authorized signatory, a list of
such authorized signatories is set forth on Exhibit
F.  The persons and telephone numbers for call-backs may be
changed only in a writing actually received and acknowledged by the Escrow
Agent. If the Escrow Agent is unable to contact any of the authorized
representatives identified in Exhibit F, the
Escrow Agent is hereby authorized to seek confirmation of such instructions by
telephone call-back to any one or more of TVA or Seven States executive officers
(the “Executive
Officers”), as the case may be, as the Escrow Agent may select, which
shall include the titles of Chief Financial Officer and Executive Vice
President, Financial Services, Senior Vice President and Treasurer, and Vice
President, Strategy, Pricing and Contracts, with respect to TVA, and the titles
of President and Chief Executive Officer, Vice President, Secretary, and
Treasurer, with respect to Seven States. Such Executive Officer shall deliver to
the Escrow Agent a fully executed incumbency certificate, and the Escrow Agent
may rely upon the confirmation of anyone purporting to be any such
officer.  The Parties acknowledge that these security procedures are
commercially reasonable.

       

      10.14 Patriot Act
Disclosure.

       

      Section
326 of the Uniting and Strengthening America by Providing Appropriate Tools
Required to Intercept and Obstruct Terrorism Act of 2001 (“USA
PATRIOT Act”) requires the Escrow Agent to implement reasonable
procedures to verify the identity of any person that opens a new account with
it.  Accordingly, the Parties acknowledge that Section 326 of the USA
PATRIOT Act and the Escrow Agent’s identity verification procedures require the
Escrow Agent to obtain information which may be used to confirm the Parties
identity including without limitation name, address and organizational documents
(“identifying
information”). The Parties agree to provide the Escrow Agent with and
consent to the Escrow Agent obtaining from third parties any such identifying
information required as a condition of opening an account with or using any
service provided by the Escrow Agent.

      Dear
Bill:

      

      The TVA
Board has authorized me to offer you the position of Chief Nuclear Officer and
Executive Vice President, TVA Nuclear with the Tennessee Valley Authority in
Chattanooga, Tennessee.  This position is responsible for directing
and managing TVA’s Nuclear Group and ensuring a stable base load from all of
TVA’s nuclear operating units.  Responsibilities include planning and
directing all organizational activities related to nuclear power production,
nuclear power plant operations, maintenance, modifications, and all nuclear
support services and engineering activities.  Upon acceptance of this
position, TVA will provide you an annual base salary of $450,000, which will be
payable in equal installments every two weeks.

      

      Additionally,
you will be included as a participant in TVA’s Executive Annual and Long-Term
Incentive Plans.  Under the Annual Incentive Plan your annual
incentive opportunity will be 75 percent of your annual base salary beginning in
this fiscal year (FY 2007).  Under the Long-Term Incentive Plan, your
award opportunity will be 80 percent of your annual base salary beginning with
the performance cycle (FY 2005-2007) ending in fiscal year 2007
(FY 2005-2007).  Actual annual and long-term incentive awards are
based on performance measured against performance goals established at the
beginning of each performance period.  The incentive awards are
generally paid in the first quarter of the fiscal year following the fiscal year
in which they are earned.  You will have an opportunity to elect to
receive these awards in a lump-sum cash payment or have all or part of the
awards credited to a deferred compensation account in your name, to the extent
permitted by IRS regulations.

      

      Due to
the nature of this position, you will also be included as a participant in TVA’s
Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan (SERP) at the Tier 1 level with the
following provisions:

       

      
        

        
          
            
              
                
                  	
                          •

                        	
                          You
      will be granted an additional 5 years of credited service and both the
      “Prior Employer Offset” and “Social Security Offset” will be
      waived.  The additional years of credited service will be for
      SERP benefit calculation purposes only and will not count toward the
      minimum five-year vesting
requirement.

                        

                

              

            

          

        

        

      

      
        
           

        

        
           

          
            

          

        

        
           

        

      

      Mr.
William R. Campbell

                    •

                  	
                    The
      “Qualified Plan Offset” will be calculated based on the pension benefit
      provided under the TVA Retirement System Cash Balance structure at the
      time of separation assuming an additional 5 years of credited
      service.

                     

                  
	
                    •

                  	
                    In
      the event of termination (other than for cause as defined below) following
      the required five years of vesting service, your termination will be
      considered an approved termination under TVA’s SERP and a benefit equal to
      that calculated for an “Approved Termination” will be payable upon
      termination as long as the termination is considered acceptable to
      TVA.

                  

          

        

        
 

      

      A general
outline of how the SERP calculation works has been furnished to you to use in
your consideration of this offer.

      

      For
purposes of this offer, termination “for cause” shall be considered to be under
circumstances involving (1) conviction of a felony or crime of moral
turpitude, or (2) illegal conduct involving dishonesty, fraud, or gross
negligence that directly results in significant economic harm to
TVA.

      

      In
addition, TVA will enter into a Long-Term Deferred Compensation Plan (LTDCP)
agreement with you that will provide annual deferred compensation credits to
cover a service period of approximately five years and four
months.  Under the agreement, an initial credit of $70,000 will be
made to an account in your name as soon as practicable following the date of
your employment with TVA.  You will be fully vested in this credit at
the time it is contributed to your account.  Subsequent credits of
$200,000 each will be contributed to your account on October 1, 2007,
October 1, 2008, October 1, 2009, October 1, 2010,
and October 1, 2011.  You will become fully vested in the
remaining credits if you remain employed by TVA until the expiration of the
agreement on September 30, 2012.  All vested credits in your
account under this LTDCP agreement will be distributed upon termination of your
employment with TVA in five annual installments in accordance with the
distribution schedule set out in section 3.A.1.b of TVA’s deferred compensation
plan (MISRIP).

      

      TVA will
also provide you a biweekly vehicle allowance, totaling approximately $11,700
annually, toward the purchase or lease of a vehicle and operating fees,
maintenance, repairs, accidents, and insurance.  This allowance is
considered a taxable benefit and will be subject to withholding and any other
applicable taxes.

      

      In
connection with your move to Tennessee, TVA will pay for the actual and
reasonable travel and moving expenses for you and your immediate
family.  TVA’s Relocation Services Program is available to assist you
in the sale of your present home.  Louise Grishom of our Shared
Resources organization will forward information to you regarding this
program.

      In
addition to the relocation expenses, TVA will provide you a one-time relocation
incentive payment in the amount of $75,000, which must be repaid to TVA if (1)
you voluntarily terminate employment within one year, unless your separation
from TVA is for reasons acceptable to TVA, or (2) you are terminated for
cause (as defined above).

      

      TVA also
provides employee benefits which are described in materials that will be sent to
you under separate cover.  The TVA Retirement System, of which you
will become a member, provides for vesting after five years of full-time
service, except that eligibility for death benefits vests
immediately.  Your employment will be subject to the usual employment
procedures and satisfactory results of a security investigation, which will
include a drug screen.  As we have discussed, this position will also
require a top secret security clearance.

      

      If you
have questions, or if I can be of assistance in any way, please do not hesitate
to call me at (865) 632-2366 or John Long at (865) 632-6307.  We look
forward to working with you.
