the  immediately  preceding  Contract Year,  escalated  pursuant to Section 7.6,
shall be deemed applicable (subject to retroactive adjustment) for such Contract

upcoming  Contract year, until such time as Owner and Contractor reach agreement
on the Budget by negotiation. If Owner and Contractor are unable to agree on the
Budget  prior to the first Day of any  Contract  Year,  and if the sum paid with
respect  to  expenses  for  the  immediately  preceding  Contract  Year  is  not
applicable  to the current  Contract  Year  because,  with  respect to expenses,
significant  events occurred in the preceding  Contract Year, or are anticipated
in the upcoming Contract Year, then,  subject to Contractor's  rights in Section
12.1,  Owner shall  establish a reasonable  Budget for the areas of variation or
disagreement  consistent with Prudent  Utility  Practices,  the Work Scope,  and
other similar projects. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Budget may be amended

when paid,  will  result in an excess of costs over the total of all Budget line
items for the Contract  Year and which it believes  should result in an increase
in the Budget,  Contractor shall notify Owner and Owner shall determine  whether
an adjustment to the Budget is appropriate.  Except as required by Section 20.8,
Contractor  shall not commit  Owner to incur such a cost without  Owner's  prior
written  consent.  Owner may express its consent in writing by either  adjusting
the  Budget or  approving  the costs  without  adjusting  the  Budget.  If Owner

purchase  orders  signed by Owner,  Contractor  may not enter into any contracts
binding  Owner which have terms in excess of one year or obligate  Owner to make

7.2  Performance  Incentive.  For the  first  Contract  Year  of this  Agreement
(January  1 through  December  31,  2000) the  available  bonus  based  upon the
Performance  Incentive  measurements  as  described  below is Six Hundred  Sixty
Thousand Dollars ($660,000). Beginning January 1, 2001, and for the remainder of
the Term of this  Agreement,  the  available  bonus  based upon the  Performance
Incentive  as  described  below  is  Three  Hundred  Thirty   Thousand   Dollars
($330,000). The annual amount of any bonus or penalty shall be escalated monthly
in accordance with Section 7.6, prorated for any period that is less than a full
twelve  months.  The  bonus  will be based  upon  Plant  Performance,  Financial
Performance,  and Management  Performance  and will be weighed  according to the
following,  and as demonstrated in Exhibit I. The Performance  Incentive will be
paid or credited on an annual basis, in accordance with Sections 7.4 and 7.5.

7.2.1 Performance  Incentive Based Upon Plant Performance.  Thirty percent (30%)
of the above available bonus is based upon Plant  Performance  Indicators.  This
portion of the  performance  incentive (the "Plant  Performance  Bonus") will be
further divided as described below:

          (i)  Integrated  Facility DMNC  Test-Summer  Capability  Demonstration
Period  ("Summer  DMNC").  The available bonus for this test is 30% of the Plant
Performance  Bonus.  The plant's  integrated  Summer DMNC test will be performed
using the  procedures  mutually  agreed to by  Contractor  and Owner per Exhibit
VIII.  The  "Summer  Target  DMNC"  shall be equal to 345 MW,  with the  "Unit I
Minimum DMNC  Threshold" set at 80 MW, and the "Unit II Minimum DMNC  Threshold"
set at 265 MW. If the  "Summer  Target  DMNC" is achieved  exactly,  25% of this
bonus shall be paid by Owner to Contractor. If the Summer DMNC is between 345 MW
and 360 MW, a bonus shall be paid by Owner to Contractor proportionally equal to
0% to 100% of the  remaining  available  bonus for this test. If "Unit I Minimum
DMNC  Threshold",  or "Unit II Minimum  DMNC  Threshold"  are not met during the
Summer Capability  Demonstration Period, and Owner is harmed as of result of the
DMNC reported, a credit shall be applied by Contractor to Owner equal to 100% of
the available bonus for this test. There shall be no credit applied in the event
that Unit I and Unit II DMNC  Thresholds  are not met,  and  Owner has  reported
acceptable  values per testing  procedures in Exhibit VIII.  Any changes in test
practices,  as agreed to by Owner and  Contractor  shall be  amended  in Exhibit
VIII, and may result in new mutually agreeable target figures.

          (ii) Integrated  Facility DMNC  Test-Winter  Capability  Demonstration
Period  ("Winter  DMNC").  The available bonus for this test is 20% of the Plant
Performance  Bonus.  The plant's  integrated  Winter DMNC test will be performed
using the  procedures  mutually  agreed to by  Contractor  and Owner per Exhibit
VIII.  The "Winter  Target  DMNC"  shall be equal to 410 MW.  Because the Winter
Capability  Demonstration Period straddles two Contract Years, the Facility DMNC
demonstrated  during  the  period  will be  applicable  in the year in which the
Winter  Capability  Demonstration  Period ends.  For example:  the Facility DMNC
demonstrated  during the period  November 1, 1999 through April 15, 2000 will be
applicable  for the 2000 Contract  Year. If the "Winter Target

                                       17

DMNC"  is  achieved  exactly,  25% of this  bonus  shall  be paid  by  Owner  to
Contractor.  If the Winter  DMNC is between  410 MW and 430 MW, a bonus shall be
paid by Owner to Contractor  proportionally equal to 0% to 100% of the remaining
available  bonus for this test. If the Winter  Target DMNC is not  achieved,  no
bonus  shall  apply.  Any changes in test  practices,  as agreed to by Owner and
Contractor  shall be  amended in Exhibit  VIII,  and may result in new  mutually
agreeable target figures.

          (iii)  Equivalent  Forced Outage Rate (EFOR) - The available amount of
the Plant  Performance  Bonus based upon this  measurement  will be allocated as
detailed below. The EFOR, on a percentage basis, shall be calculated by Owner on
a monthly  basis for each of the Unit I and Unit II  facilities,  in  accordance
with the North American Electric  Reliability Council  "Generating  Availability
Data System"  (NERC/GADS)  standards (IEEE definition) annexed to this Agreement
as Exhibit XII, in effect at the time this Agreement is signed. Owner will allow
adjustments  to the EFOR  calculation  in the  case of (1)  acts of God,  flood,
drought,  earthquake,  severe  storm,  pestilence,  lightning  and other natural
catastrophes,  epidemic,  war, riot, civil disturbance or disobedience,  strikes
labor disputes ; (2) action or inaction of  legislative,  judicial or regulatory
agencies or other proper authority; (3) any similar occurrence caused by a third
party beyond  Contractor's  reasonable  control;  (4) Owner's failure to provide
recommended  Spare Parts in  accordance  with GER 3620 (Exhibit II); (5) Owner's
undue  delay in acting out  responsibilities  under  Clauses  4.4 and 5.4 or (6)
Owner-requested  schedule  changes (in required  maintenance or operations)  for
business  reasons,  as mutually agreed by Owner and Contractor.  The use of this
calculation is based on its adoption and use by the New York Independent  System
Operator  (NYISO)  and  may be  replaced,  by  mutual  agreement  of  Owner  and
Contractor,  if a different  performance measure is utilized by either the NYISO
or the Combined Facility's electric power customers.

               (a) "Unit I Peak Period Average EFOR":  The available bonus based
upon this  measurement is 15% of the Plant  Performance  Bonus.  The Unit I Peak
Period  Average  EFOR will be the  mathematical  average of the  monthly  Unit I
EFOR's during the calendar months included in the Unit I Peak Period.

If the Unit I Peak Period  Average EFOR is equal to 2.0%, no bonus shall be paid
or credited.

If the Unit I Peak Period Average EFOR is between 2.0%and 0.0%, a bonus shall be
paid by Owner to Contractor  proportionally equal to 0% to 100% of the available
bonus for this measurement.

If the Unit I Peak Period  Average EFOR is between 2.0% and 3.0%, a credit shall
be  applied by  Contractor  to Owner  proportionally  equal to 0% to 100% of the

the deficiencies determined in accordance to Clause 7.2. Therefore,  the Parties
agree that the amounts determined to be due to Owner from Contractor pursuant to
Section 7.2 are liquidated damages and not penalties. Payment of such liquidated
damages shall be in lieu of all actual damages arising upon such occurrences and
shall be Owner's sole and  exclusive  remedy and,  when paid,  shall relieve the
Contractor  from all  liability  for any costs,  losses or expenses,  claims and
penalties,  of whatsoever nature incurred by the Owner which result from, or are
occasioned by, any failure of the Combined Facility to achieve electrical output
or to accept and process  Acceptable Fuel. The sum of all liquidated  damages as
set forth in this  Agreement  shall not exceed,  in the  aggregate,  Six Hundred
Twenty  Thousand  Dollars  ($  620,000.00)  for the first  Contract  Year of the
Agreement,  and  Three  Hundred  Ten  Thousand  Dollars  ($310,000.00)  for  the
remaining  Contract Years of this Agreement.  A bonus earned pursuant to Clauses

Statistics  Consumer  Price Index for Urban Wage  Earners and  Clerical  Workers
(CPI-W) as  published  monthly for the  Northeast  Region by the Bureau Of Labor
Statistics for the U.S.  Department of Labor  (updated for base year  82-84=100,
pursuant to Series ID CWUR0100SA0).

          (ii) The "Current  Month  CPI-W"  shall be the latest CPI-W  published
prior to the date an invoice is issued.

          (iii)  The  "Percent   Increase  In  CPI-W"  shall  be  calculated  by
subtracting  the previous  month CPI-W from the Current Month CPI-W and dividing
this  difference  by the  previous  month CPI-W and  expressing  the result as a
percentage.

          (iv) The "Current  Month Rolling Six Month Average CPI-W Change" shall
be calculated  by adding the Percent  Increase In CPI-W for the current month to

          (i) The payments shall be adjusted upward monthly if the Current Month
Rolling Six Month Average  CPI-W Change is greater than zero.  The Current Month
Payment shall be calculated by multiplying the previous month payment calculated
as  described  herein by the sum of one (1) plus the Current  Month  Rolling Six
Month Average CPI-W Change. If the Current Month Rolling Six Month Average CPI-W
Change is less than or equal to zero,  the Current Month Payment shall equal the
previous  month  Payment.  In any  event,  no  payment  shall  be less  than the
applicable Base Payment.

          (ii) In the event the CPI-W shall no longer be published, the base for
the index is changed, or the schedule for publishing the index is changed,  such
other index as Owner and  Contractor  shall  reasonably  determine  that is most
nearly compatible, will be utilized.

          (iii) Adjustments shall be calculated to the nearest  one-hundredth of
one percent.

The payment due is ($10,000) (1.0 + 0.0027) = $10,027.

          7.6.3 For the  purpose of  escalation  under  Section  13.2 the annual
Limitation  of Liability  shall be  calculated  by  multiplying  the  applicable
limitation  in Section 13.2 by a fraction the  numerator of which is the Current
Month CPI-W for  January of the current  Contract  Year and the  denominator  of
which is 173.0 (the CPI-W for January 2000).

7.7 Taxes. Prices in this Agreement do not include sales,  excise,  value added,
use or other similar taxes.  Consequently,  in addition to the prices specified,
any such  taxes  will be  calculated  by  Contractor  and added to  Contractor's
invoices at the time  specified  in this  Agreement  and will be due and payable
with the invoice.  Owner may provide Contractor with a tax exemption certificate
for any of the above taxes, acceptable to the applicable taxing authorities,  in
lieu of these additions. Owner shall indemnify and hold harmless Contractor from
all claims or liability for such taxes.

     Title to all materials and services  provided  under this  Agreement  shall
pass to Owner upon  performance  of the work or  delivery  of  materials  to the

     Contractor shall not be liable for  nonperformance of its obligations under
this Agreement or lack of cure of nonperformance  or default,  to the extent its

all or substantially  all of its assets,  or makes a general  assignment for the
benefit of its  creditors,  or  institutes a proceeding in  bankruptcy,  or if a
receiver  is  appointed  on  account  of its  insolvency,  Owner may  request of
Contractor or its successors in interest  assurance,  satisfactory  of Owner, of
Contractor's  future  performance in accordance with the terms and conditions of
this Agreement. If Contractor fails to provide such assurance within thirty (30)
days of a request thereof,  Owner may, without  prejudice to any right or remedy
and after giving  Contractor seven (7) days prior notice thereof,  terminate the
employment of Contractor.

11.2  Termination  for  Contractor's  Inability  to  Perform  Economically.   If

         11.3.1   Owner may terminate this Agreement for cause:

               (i)  Immediately  upon written  notice,  if  Contractor  fails to

result of a failure of Electric Insurance Company or successor insurance company
to maintain its authorization to do business in New York or a Best's rating of A
minus (A-) or better,  and be  assigned  Class IX or better,  as measured by the
A.M. Best Company,  such termination  shall take effect only if Contractor

fails to cure  within  30 days by  provision  of  insurance  through  a  carrier
satisfactory pursuant to Clause 16.2.1; or

               (ii) by written  notice,  which notice shall  specify all claimed
deficiencies,  if Contractor  fails to perform its services in  accordance  with
Prudent Utility Practices;  provided,  however,  that the termination shall take
effect  only upon  expiration  of a 30 day cure  period  following  Contractor's
receipt  of  Owner's  notice  and  only  if  Owner  reasonably  cooperates  with
Contractor  in achieving a cure,  including,  subject to Article 13  "Warranty",
approval of costs for Direct  Materials,  Direct Labor,  Direct  Management  and
Direct  Subcontracts,  if  necessary  to cure the  deficiencies.  It is  further
provided that if Contractor is not  reasonably  able to complete the cure within

continue to pursue efforts to cure the deficiencies with reasonable diligence or
Contractor fails to cure the deficiencies  within one year following  receipt of
the notice of termination; or

               (iii) by written  notice,  which notice shall specify all claimed
deficiencies, if Contractor fails to perform its services in accordance with any
other provision of this Agreement and such failure has a material adverse effect
on Owner;  provided,  however,  that the termination shall take effect only upon
expiration  of a 60 day cure period  following  Contractor's  receipt of Owner's
notice and only if Owner  reasonably  cooperates  with Contractor in achieving a
cure, including, subject to Article 13 "Warranty",  approval of costs for Direct
Materials, Direct Labor, Direct Management and Direct Subcontracts, if necessary
to cure the  deficiencies.  It is further  provided  that if  Contractor  is not
reasonably able to complete the cure within 60 days, the termination  shall take
effect when and only if Contractor  fails to continue to pursue  efforts to cure
the  deficiencies  with  reasonable  diligence or  Contractor  fails to cure the
deficiencies within one year following receipt of the notice of termination; or

               (iv) Upon thirty (30) days prior written notice,  in the event an
Excusable Delay occurs that is not remedied within ninety (90) days of discovery
despite Owner's reasonable efforts, which efforts shall be commensurate with the
effect of Contractor under Article 9.

Contractor may terminate this Agreement for the following reasons:

     (i) an event of Excusable Delay which cannot reasonably be cured; or

     (ii)  Owner's   unreasonable   failure  to  follow   Contractor's   written

were not disclosed, for whatever reason, by hazardous business reviews conducted
(such reviews to be conducted at Contractor's expense and at the approval of the
Owner;  such approval  shall not be  unreasonably  withheld) by Contractor  with
respect to the transaction, or

     (vii) Owner's  failure to provide,  at all times, a Combined  Facility that
complies with and is designed and operable in accordance  with,  all  applicable
federal, state, and local permits, laws, rules,  regulations and ordinances,  in

laws, rules, or regulations; or

     (ix) Owner and Contractor fail to reasonably  agree on a Budget for two (2)

Owner  shall  have the right to  attempt  to cure the event  giving  rise to the
termination notice. In the event Owner cures the event before the effective date
of termination, the notice of termination shall be of no force or effect; and in
the event Owner undertakes but cannot complete cure before the effective date of

Notwithstanding   the  foregoing,   Contractor  may   immediately   Suspend  its
performance  or work during the  existence of any events  identified  in Section

shall be escalated  monthly in  accordance  with  Section 7.6,  prorated for any
period  less than a month,  and billed on or about the first day of each  month.
All termination  costs will be completed within three months.  Contractor agrees
to cooperate with Owner to minimize costs.  Payment shall be due consistent with

period  commencing on the fifteenth day after Owner's receipt of the invoice and
continuing to the date payment is received by Contractor.

12.5 Owner's and Contractor's  Rights upon Termination.  Except as otherwise set
forth in this  Section,  upon  termination  of this  Agreement  pursuant to this
Article  12,  liability  of the  Contractor  for  acts  performed  prior  to the

Contractor  not less than one  hundred  twenty  (120) days  prior  notice to the
effective date of such termination.  In the event that such termination  occurs,
Owner shall pay  Contractor  the  "Buy-out  Amount"  specified  in Table A, plus
applicable  demobilization  costs,  which  include the payments  for  relocation
pursuant to Section 12.4,  within thirty (30) days of the termination  effective
date, plus any Extra Work or other completed  Services or Performance  Incentive

Contractor  shall pay Owner the Buy-out Amount  specified in Table A below.  The
foregoing shall be the Contractor's  sole and exclusive  liability to Owner upon
any termination pursuant to this Section 12.6.

Buy-out Amount:  The Parties agree that the damages likely to be incurred in the
event of  termination  as set forth in Section 12 will be  difficult to measure,
that the Buy-out Amount is reasonable, and that the Buy-out Amount shall be paid
in lieu of all such actual damages and not as a penalty.

                                    WARRANTY

13.1 Warranty.  Contractor  warrants to Owner that the work performed under this
Agreement shall be performed by competent personnel, in accordance with the Work
Scope and will be free from defects in workmanship and materials.  The foregoing
warranty,  and the remedy set forth  below,  applies to any defect that  appears
within  one (1)  year  from  the date the  work  giving  rise to the  claim  was
performed.

13.2 Exclusive  Remedy.  Subject to Article 15, and provided that Contractor has
been notified in writing  promptly  after Owner  becomes aware of a defect,  and
whether a claim, however instituted, is based on contract, indemnity,  warranty,
tort (including negligence), strict liability or otherwise, the exclusive remedy
for any claim based on failure of, or defect in, services or materials furnished
by Contractor hereunder shall be: (a) for defective services:  the retraining or
replacement of Contractor's  personnel and the  re-performance  by Contractor of
any defective portion of the services furnished; and (b) for any damaged part(s)
of  the  equipment  resulting  from  defective  services  performed  under  this
Agreement  or  for  defective  materials  provided  hereunder:   the  repair  or
replacement  (at  Contractor's  option)  of the  damaged  part(s)  or  defective
materials. If reperformance of defective services is not practicable, Contractor
shall furnish  without charge services in an amount  essentially  equal to those
which would have been  required  for  reperformance  or  negotiate  an equitable
adjustment  in price  based  upon the cost of the  defective  services.  Where a
damaged  part(s) or  defective  material(s)  cannot be  repaired  or replaced by
Contractor's  reasonable  efforts,  the  Parties  will  negotiate  an  equitable
adjustment in price based upon the cost of the damaged  part(s) or  material(s).
Notwithstanding  the  above,   Contractor's  obligation  whether  for  providing
services, parts or materials shall be limited to a maximum of One Hundred Twenty
Three Thousand Dollars  ($123,000.00) per incident and Three Hundred Sixty Eight
Thousand Dollars  ($368,000) per Contract Year. These limits shall be subject to
escalation in accordance with Clause 7.6.3. In the event the applied  deductible
of Owner's  insurance  coverage is less than One Hundred  Twenty Three  Thousand
Dollars ($123,000.00) per incident,  Contractor's obligation shall be limited to
the amount of that deductible.

13.3 Exclusions. This warranty is exclusive and in lieu of all other warranties,
