  3.12   INTERCONNECTING SERVICE INTERRUPTIONS.

         3.12.1   If at any time, in the reasonable exercise of the Transmission
Operator's judgment or the Company's reasonable judgment exercised in accordance
with Good Utility Practice, the operation of any one or more of the Producer's
Generating Facilities would have a material adverse impact on the quality of
service rendered by the Company (including transmission or distribution services
and services provided to end users), or would interfere with the safe and
reliable operation of the Transmission System, the Company may discontinue
Interconnection Service and/or curtail, interrupt or reduce energy delivered
from the respective Producer's Generating Facilities until the condition has
been corrected. Any such discontinuation, curtailment, interruption or reduction
by the Company shall be undertaken on a nondiscriminatory basis. Unless the
Transmission Operator, or the Company, perceives that an Emergency exists or
that the risk of one is imminent, the Company shall give the Producer reasonable

                                     - 18 -
<PAGE>   23

notice of its intention to discontinue, curtail, interrupt or reduce energy
delivery in response to the interfering condition and, where practical, allow
suitable time for the Producer to remove the interfering condition before any
such discontinuation, curtailment, interruption or reduction commences. The
Company's judgment with regard to any discontinuation, curtailment,
interruption or reduction of service under this paragraph shall be made
pursuant to Good Utility Practice. In the event of any discontinuation,
curtailment, interruption or reduction the Company shall promptly confer with
the Producer regarding the interfering conditions that gave rise to the
discontinuation, curtailment, interruption or reduction and the Company shall
give the Producer the Company's recommendation concerning the timely correction
thereof. If the Company is the cause of the interfering problem, the Company
will correct such problem as expeditiously as reasonably possible. The Company
shall restore Interconnection Service or, if applicable, cease the curtailment,
interruption or reduction of energy delivery upon notification by the System
Operator, PJM OI, as applicable, that the interfering condition no longer
exists.

     3.13 SCHEDULED MAINTENANCE NOTIFICATION AND COORDINATION.

          3.13.1 Local Routine Inspection and Maintenance. The Company and
Producer agree that, due to the integration of certain control and protective
relaying schemes between the Producer's Generating Facilities and the

scheduled maintenance of the transmission facilities which might reasonably be
expected to affect the operation of one or more Stations. The Company shall, to
the extent practicable, schedule any testing, shutdown, or withdrawal of those
facilities to coincide with the Producer's scheduled outages of the respective
Stations. To facilitate such notification, in June of each year, or on another
day mutually acceptable to the Parties, the Producer shall furnish the Company
with non-binding preliminary maintenance schedules for each Station covering
the upcoming two years. The Producer shall furnish the Company with non-binding
updates to such schedules to reflect significant changes thereto. In the event
the Company is unable to schedule the outage of its facilities to coincide with
the Producer's schedules, the Company shall use all reasonable efforts to
schedule such outage for off-peak periods, and to notify the Producer in
advance of the reasons for the facilities' outage, of the time scheduled for
the outage to take place, and of its expected duration. The Producer shall give
notice to the Company regarding any

     4.1.2     In the event the Producer believes that a request, order, or
directive of the Company exceeds the limitations in Section 4.1.1, it shall
nevertheless comply with the request, order, or directive of the Company
pending resolution of the dispute under Article 12. The Parties agree to
cooperate in good faith to expedite the resolution of any disputes arising
under this Section 4.1.

     4.2  PRODUCER'S OPERATING OBLIGATIONS.

               4.2.1     General.  If such action would have an adverse impact

services in accordance with a cost-based rate methodology accepted by FERC.

               4.2.2.1 The Producer shall operate the Stations in accordance
with the voltage schedules prescribed by the Company, provided that meeting
such voltage schedules would not (i) cause the Stations to operate outside of
their respective reactive generating capability or violate any electrical
constraints, or (ii) except in an Emergency, require a reduction of energy
output. Should the producer fail to meet the requirements in the preceding
sentence, the Company will provide written notice to the Producer of such
failure. If the Producer does not promptly commence appropriate action after
receiving such notice to remedy such failure, the Company may then take any
action necessary at the Producer's expense to remedy such failure, including
the installation of capacitor banks or other reactive compensation equipment
necessary to ensure the proper voltage or reactive supply at the affected
Station. The Company shall take, to the extent feasible, reasonable efforts to
minimize the impact of such action on the operation of the affected Station.

               4.2.2.2 The Producer shall notify the Transmission Operator, to
the extent required by the Transmission Operator, if any or all generating
units at any Station reaches a VAR limit, if there is any deviation from the
assigned voltage schedule, or if any automatic voltage regulator is removed
from or restored to service.

          4.2.3 Consistent with Good Utility Practice, the Producer shall
comply with the requirements of (i) the Transmission Operator, to the extent

controls that impact the Transmission System, such as excitation, droop, and
automatic generation control settings.

               4.2.3.1 The Producer shall keep the Company advised of each
Station's capability to participate in system restoration and of each Station's
black start capability and shall adhere to the Company's service restoration
plan and black start criteria as in effect on the effective date of this
Agreement, or as amended from time to time thereafter as agreed by the Parties.

          4.2.4 Producer acknowledges that the Transmission Operator, to the
extent authorized or directed by PJM OI or the PJM Interconnection, L.L.C. or
in an Emergency, has the right to require reduced or increased generation of
each Station in accordance with the PJM Agreement or the PJM Tariff, as
applicable.

          4.2.5 Each month, the Company shall pay to the Producer any
compensation that the Company receives from PJM for Ancillary Services provided
by the Producer from the Stations under the PJM Tariff. For purposes of this

                                     - 23 -

representatives access to information, or to the Stations, as reasonably
necessary for the Company to operate the Transmission System.

     8.2  (a)  Upon the occurrence of an event of default, the Party not in
default may give written notice of the default to the defaulting Party. Such
notice shall set forth, in reasonable detail, the nature of the default and,
where known and applicable, the steps necessary to cure such default. Except
with respect to a payment default as described in Section 8.1(a), the
defaulting Party shall have thirty (30) days following receipt of such notice
either to (i) cure such default, or (ii) commence in good faith all such steps
as are reasonable and appropriate to cure such default in the event such
default cannot, in the reasonable judgment of such non-defaulting Party, be
completely cured within such thirty (30) day period. With respect to the
payment default described in Section 8.1(a), the defaulting party shall have
ten (10) days from receipt of such default notice to cure such default.

          (b)  If the defaulting Party fails to cure such default or take such
steps as provided under subparagraph (a) above, this Agreement may be terminated

                                     - 29 -

by written notice to the Party in default hereof. This Agreement shall
thereupon terminate and the non-defaulting Party may exercise all such rights
and remedies as may be available to it to recover damages, subject to Article 18
of this Agreement, caused by such default.

          (c)  Notwithstanding the foregoing, upon the occurrence of any such
event of default, the non-defaulting Party shall be entitled (i) to commence an
action to require the defaulting party to remedy such default and specifically
perform its duties and obligations hereunder in accordance with the terms and
conditions hereof, and (ii) to exercise such other rights and remedies as it
may have at equity or at law.

     8.3  Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, in the
event the Producer's failure to comply with the provisions of Sections 4.1 and
4.2 of this Agreement is reasonably likely to have an immediate and material
adverse effect on the Company or the Transmission System, the Company shall
have the right to take immediately all reasonable steps and/or to exercise
immediately all remedies available under this Agreement, or at law or in
equity, including the right, after providing as much notice as is practicable
under the circumstances and complying with applicable FERC notice requirements
regarding termination of service, to disconnect from the Transmission System
any Station in connection with which Producer has so failed to comply with
Sections 4.1 and 4.2 of this Agreement.

     8.4  Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, in the
event the Company shall fail to comply with the provisions of Section 4.1 of
this Agreement, and such failure is reasonably likely to have an immediate and
material adverse effect on the Producer or one or more Stations, after
providing as much notice to the Company as is practicable under the
circumstances, the Producer shall have the right to take such action, at law or
in equity, as is reasonably required to ensure Company's compliance with
Section 4.1.

9.0  INDEMNIFICATION.

     9.1  PRODUCER'S INDEMNIFICATION.

     The Producer shall indemnify, hold harmless, and defend the Company, its
parent and its Affiliates, as the case may be, and their respective officers,
directors, employees, agents, contractors, subcontractors, invitees, successors
and permitted assigns from and against any and all claims, liabilities, costs,
damages, and expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable attorney and
expert fees, and disbursements incurred by any of them in any action or
proceeding between the Company and a third party or the Producer) for damage to
property, injury to or

                                     - 30 -

<PAGE>   35

death of any person, including the Company's employees or any third parties
(collectively, "Company's Damages"), to the extent caused wholly or in part by
any act or omission, negligent or otherwise, by the Producer and/or its
officers, directors, employees, agents, and subcontractors arising out of or
connected with the Producer's performance or breach of this Agreement, or the
exercise by the Producer of its rights hereunder. In furtherance of the
foregoing indemnification and not by way of limitation thereof, the Producer
hereby waives any defense it might otherwise have under applicable workers'
compensation laws.

     9.2  COMPANY'S INDEMNIFICATION.

     The Company shall indemnify, hold harmless, and defend the Producer, its
parent and its Affiliates, as the case may be, and their respective officers,
directors, employees, agents, contractors, subcontractors, invitees, successors
and permitted assigns from and against any and all claims, liabilities, costs,
damages, and expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable attorney and
expert fees, and disbursements incurred by any of them in any action or
proceeding between the Producer and a third party or the Company) for damage to
property, injury to or death of any person, including the Producer's employees
or any third parties (collectively, "Producer's Damages"), to the extent caused
wholly or in part by any act or omission, negligent or otherwise, by the Company
and/or their officers, directors, employees, agents, contractors, subcontractors
and invitees arising out of or connected with the Company's performance or
breach of this Agreement, or the exercise by the Company of their rights
hereunder. In furtherance of the foregoing indemnification and not by way of
limitation thereof, the Company hereby waives any defense they might otherwise
have under applicable workers' compensation laws.

     9.3  INDEMNIFICATION PROCEDURES.

     If either Party intends to seek indemnification under this Article 9.0 from
the other Party, the Party seeking indemnification shall give the other Party
notice of such claim within ninety (90) days of the commencement of, or the
Party's actual knowledge of, such claim or action. Such notice shall describe
the claim in reasonable detail, and shall indicate the amount (estimated if
necessary) of the claim that has been, or may be sustained by, said Party. To
the extent that the other Party will have been actually and materially
prejudiced as a result of the failure to provide such notice, such notice will
be a condition precedent to any liability of the other Party under the
provisions for indemnification contained in this Agreement. Neither Party may
settle or compromise any claim without the prior consent of the other Party;
provided, however, said consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed.

10.0 INSURANCE.

liability, worker's compensation, and other forms of insurance relating to

set forth in Schedule B to this Agreement, as both Parties may, from

hereunder written on a "claims made" basis. Each Party may require the other
Party to maintain tail coverage for five years on all policies written on a
"claims made" basis.

     10.3 Every contract of insurance providing the coverages required in
Schedule B shall contain the following or equivalent clause: "no reduction,

the Producer nor the Company shall be liable in damages, or otherwise
responsible to the other Party, for its failure to carry out any of its
obligations under this Agreement, other than any obligation to pay an amount
when due, if and only to the extent that it is unable to so perform or is
prevented from performing by an event of force majeure.

<PAGE>   37
         11.2   The term "force majeure" as used herein means those causes
beyond the reasonable control of the Party affected, which by the exercise of
reasonable diligence, including Good Utility Practice, that Party is unable to
prevent, avoid, mitigate, or overcome, including the following: any act of God,
labor dispute (including a strike), act of the public enemy, war, insurrection,
riot, fire, storm or flood, explosion, breakage or accident to machinery or
equipment, electric system disturbance, order, regulation or restriction imposed
by governmental, military or lawfully-established civilian authorities, or any
other cause of a similar nature beyond a Party's reasonable control.

         11.3   If a Party shall rely on the occurrence of an event or condition
described above as a basis for being excused from performance of its obligations
under this Agreement, then the Party relying on the event or condition shall (a)
provide prompt written notice of such force majeure event to the other Party,
including an estimation of its expected duration and the probable impact on the
performance of its obligation hereunder; (b) exercise all reasonable efforts in
accordance with Good Utility Practice to continue to perform its obligations
under this  Agreement; (c) expeditiously take action to correct or cure the
event or condition excusing performance, provided, however, that settlement of
labor disputes will be completely within the sole discretion of the Party
affected by such labor dispute; (d) exercise all reasonable efforts to mitigate
or limit damages to the other Party; and (e) provide prompt notice to the other
Party of the cessation of the event or condition giving rise to its excuse from
performance. All performance obligations hereunder shall be extended by a period
equal to the term of the resultant delay.

         12.1   Any claim or dispute, which either Party may have against the
other, arising out of the Agreement shall be submitted in writing to the other
Party not later than sixty (60) days after the circumstances which gave rise to
the claim or dispute have taken place. The submission of any claim or dispute
shall include a concise statement of the question or issue in dispute, together
with relevant facts and documentation to fully support the claim.

         12.2   If any such claim or dispute arises, the parties shall use
their best efforts to resolve the claim or dispute, initially through good
faith negotiations or upon the failure of such negotiations, through
Alternative Dispute Resolution ("ADR") techniques in accordance with the Model
Procedure for Mediation of Business Disputes as published by the Center for
Public Resources; however, either Party may terminate its participation in ADR
during any stage of ADR and proceed under section 12.3.

upon, and inure to the benefit of, the Parties hereto and their respective
successors and permitted assigns, but neither this Agreement nor any of the
rights, interests, or obligations hereunder shall be assigned, except to an
Affiliate or successor, by either Party hereto, whether by operation of law or
otherwise, without the prior written consent of the other Party, which consent
may not be unreasonably

                                     - 35 -

withheld or delayed. Any assignment of this Agreement in violation of the
foregoing shall be, at the option of the non-assigning Party, void.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, (i) Producer may assign all of its rights and
obligations hereunder to any Affiliate of the Producer which acquires all, or
substantially all, of the Producer's interest in the Stations, and upon the
Company's receipt of notice from Producer of any such assignment, such assignee
will be deemed to have assumed, ratified, agreed to be bound by and perform all
such obligations, and all references herein to "Producer" shall thereafter be
deemed to be references to such assignee, in each case without the necessity
for further act or evidence by the Parties hereto or such assignee, (ii)
Producer may assign its rights and obligations hereunder which relate to any
particular Station to any Affiliate of Producer which acquires all or
substantially all of Producer's interest in such Station, and upon the
Company's receipt of notices from Producer of any such assignment, such
assignee will be deemed to have assumed, ratified and agreed to be bound by and

         8.1      Meter Compensation: The meters at this Generating Plant are
                  not physically located at the Points of Interconnection.
                  Therefore, the metering will be compensated (fixed and
                  variable) to record the delivery of electricity in a manner
                  that accounts for the total (no-load and load) electrical
                  energy losses which occur between the metering and the Point
                  of Interconnection.

                             Shawville Station - 4
<PAGE>   68
                           voltages will be raised by increasing the generator
                           voltage on Units #1 & 2. The bus voltages will be
                           returned to their normal levels as soon as possible.

                  7.4.2    Transformer #14 Outages: The 115/34.5/4.16 kV #14
                           transformer is required for operation of the station
                           #5, 6 and 7 diesel-generators and black start of the
                           station through the 34.5 kV busses and the #5 and 6
                           transformers. All scheduled outages of this
                           transformer by the Company will be reviewed with the
                           Producer. All reasonable efforts should be taken by
                           the Company to restore the transformer to service
                           from planned or unplanned outages.

                  7.4.3    Transformer #1A and 2A Outages: These 230/115/18 kV
                           transformers must be in-service for the respective
                           generating units to operate at their full load
                           capability. All scheduled outages of this transformer
                           by the Company will be reviewed with the Producer.
                           All reasonable efforts should be taken by the Company
                           to restore the transformer to service from planned or
                           unplanned outages.

                  7.4.4    Transformer #1A and 2A Generator Disconnect Switches:
                           In the event of a generating unit trip, the Producer
                           will manually operate the respective generator
                           disconnect switch as soon as possible, to allow
                           restoration of that transformer to service by the
                           Company.

                  7.4.5    All Generating Units Off: Whenever the four Shawville
                           steam generating units are simultaneously out of
                           service, the voltages at the Shawville 115 kV and 230
                           kV busses may be significantly reduced during normal
                           operations. In addition, this condition makes the
                           Company system susceptible to single contingency
                           outages that can cause even lower voltages and/or
                           result in thermal overloads on the 115 kV
                           transmission lines in the Shawville area. To prevent
                           such a condition, the Transmission Operator will take
                           all actions necessary to maintain the Shawville
                           voltage to acceptable levels. This includes the
                           switching of the bulk power capacitors that are
                           available and requesting the dispatch of generating
                           units in the Shawville area as must-run for the
                           protection and reliability of the transmission
                           system. This directive is further described in the
                           Company Energy Bulk Power Operations Memo No. 2,
                           subject Shawville Area Contingencies, dated 8/18/93,
                           and as may be further amended from time to time.

                  7.4.6    System Restoration: Shawville Station includes three
                           (3) diesels that have a black start capability. In
                           the event that system-wide blackout occurs, these
                           diesels may be called upon to provide an initial
                           source of energy for the restoration of the Company
                           and regional transmission systems. When requested,
                           the Shawville Control Room Operators will start these
                           diesels and coordinate their operation with the
                           Transmission Operators.

                  7.4.7    During the daily operation of the PJM system, there
                           may be times when the PJM OI security analysis
                           programs identify a potential contingency overload of
                           the Transmission Systems that cannot be alleviated by
                           any of the existing operating procedures. When such a
                           condition occurs, the Producer may be required to
                           reduce the station output in order to maintain the
                           reliability of the Transmission Systems.

8.       Metering

         8.1      Meter Compensation: The meters at this Generating Plant are
                  not physically located at the Points of Interconnection.
                  Therefore, the meeting will be compensated (fixed and
                  variable) to record the delivery of electricity in a manner
                  that accounts for the total (no-load and load) electrical
                  energy losses which occur between the metering and the Point
                  of Interconnection.

                           purposes between the Producer's Assets and the
                           Company's substation, up to the first terminal point
                           in the Company equipment, unless specified otherwise.
                           (As a note of clarification, the Producer is
                           responsible for all control cables that run between
                           the power plant and the substation regardless of
                           whether the Company and/or the Producer use the
                           cables. If trouble occurs, the Party who uses the
                           cable shall be responsible to trouble shoot the line
                           to determine the cause of the problem.)

         5.4      Substation Paging System

                  5.4.1    The Producer shall provide, at no cost, a plant
                           paging system in the substation areas for common use
                           by all parties, as and to the extent provided prior
                           to Closing.

6        Company Provided Local Services

         6.1      No local services will be provided by the Company at this
                  location.

7        Operating Requirements

         7.1      Station Service

                  7.1.1    The Producer shall Maintain the station 125-volt DC
                           system, which also serves the 115 & 34.5 kV
                           substation, and notify the Company if it should
                           become unavailable.

         7.2      Current and Potential Circuits

                  7.2.1    The Producer and the Company shall consult in
                           performing any work which might be reasonably
                           expected to affect the continuous operation of the
                           substation or generating units in accordance with
                           Section 3.13.1 of the Interconnection Agreement.

                  7.2.2    In particular, this shall include the current
                           transformers in these locations:

                           7.2.2.1  115 kV #3 Transformer (Combustion Turbine)
                                    circuit breaker

                           7.2.2.2  12 kV #1 Transformer circuit breaker

                           7.2.2.3  12 kV #2 Transformer circuit breaker

                           7.2.2.4  12 kV "A" Transformer circuit breaker

                  7.2.3    In particular, this shall include the potential
                           transformers in these locations:

                           7.2.3.1  115 kV #1 Bus

                           7.2.3.2  34.5 kV #1 & 2 Busses

         7.3      Transmission Operating Requirements

                  7.3.1    Erie South 345/230 kV No.5 Transformer Outages:
                           Whenever the Erie South 345/230 kV No.5 transformer
                           is out of service, the transfer of power from west to
                           east across the Penelec transmission system is
                           limited due to the contingency overload of critical
                           115 kV and 230 kV facilities in the Erie area. Since
                           the dispatch of the units at the Warren station can
                           reduce such flows, it may be necessary for the
                           Transmission Operator to request that one or more of
                           the units at the Warren Station be dispatched in a
                           must-run mode for the protection of the transmission
                           systems in the Warren and Erie area. This directive
                           is further described in the GPU Energy Bulk Power
                           Operations Memo #5, dated 4/5/93, and as may be
                           further amended from time to time.

                  7.3.2    Erie South 230 kV Bus Section Tie Breaker Outage:
                           Whenever the Erie South 230 kV Bus Section Tie
                           Breaker is out of service, the Erie East 230 kV
                           capacitors (130 MV AR) that support the transmission
                           system voltages in the area must also be removed from
                           service. The result of these two outages is that the
                           transfer of power through the Erie South substation
                           is significantly restricted. In addition, the
                           reliability of the transmission system will be
                           jeopardized should any of several 345 kV and 230 kV
                           transmission contingencies occur. To control for
                           these potential transmission security violations, at
                           least one Warren steam generator must be dispatched
                           whenever the Erie South 230 kV Bus Section tie

<PAGE>   75
                           breaker is opened. This directive is further
                           described in the GPU Energy Bulk Power Operations
                           Memo #11, dated 3/24/98, and as may be further
                           amended from time to time.

                  7.3.3    Glade-Lewis Run-Forest Outages: Whenever the
                           Glade-Lewis Run-Forest 230 kV line is out of service,
                           the Seneca units can become unstable and cause
                           significant voltage swings on the Penelec
                           transmission system following a trip of the Erie
                           South-Warren 230 kV line. This significantly
                           jeopardizes the Penelec system security and can trip
                           and/or cause damage to the Seneca units. For these
                           reasons the Seneca units will be restricted from
                           either generating or pumping during the periods when
                           the Glade-Forest-Lewis Run 230 kV line is out of
                           Service. Due to this generation restriction, the
                           Transmission Operator will also request that at least
                           one of the two Warren steam units be dispatched as
                           must-run for the protection of the transmission
                           system in the Warren area. This directive is further
                           described in the GPU Energy Bulk Power Operations
                           Memo #76, dated 4/16/98, and as may be further
                           amended from time to time.

                  7.3.4    Warren 230/115 kV No.4 and Warren 115 kV Line
                           Outages: Whenever the Warren 230/115 kV No.4
                           Transformer is out of service and a trip of one of
                           the two 115 kV transmission lines at Warren occurs,
                           the Warren Station generation must be adjusted to
                           maintain a zero flow on the 115 kV line that remains
                           in service. The reason for this action is to prevent
                           the unstable operation of the Warren units and to
                           provide for the reliable operation of the
                           transmission system in the Warren area.

                  7.3.5    Warren-Falconer 115 kV Overcurrent Protection: To
                           optimize the economic interchange of power between
                           New York and Pennsylvania, an inverse time
                           overcurrent relay exists on the Warren-Falconer 115
                           kV line. This relay is set to operate if the flow on
                           the Warren-Falconer 115 kV line: (a) exceeds 116 MVA
                           summer emergency rating the during the period from
                           May 1 through October 31 or (b) exceeds the 136 MVA
                           Winter emergency during the period from November 1
                           through April 30. The relay is further set to trip
                           the Warren-Falconer 115 kV line in 1.5 seconds when
                           its loading reaches 192 MVA. While the trip of the
                           Warren-Falconer 115 kV line by this relay's action
                           will result in a significant step change in the power
                           flowing through the Warren 115 kV substation,
                           operations studies have shown that no instability in
                           the operation of the Warren units will result. The
                           Transmission Operator will notify the Warren Plant
                           Operator whenever this relay scheme operates.

8        Metering

         8.1      Meter Compensation: The meters at this Generating Plant are
                  not physically located at the Points of Interconnection.
                  Therefore, the metering will be compensated (fixed and
                  variable) to record the delivery of electricity in a manner
                  that accounts for the total (no-load and load) electrical
                  energy losses which occur between the metering and the Point
                  of Interconnection.

        7.2       Transmission Operating Requirements

                  7.2.1    Erie South 345/230 kV No. 5 Transformer Outages:
                           Whenever the Erie South 345/230 kV No. 5 transformer
                           is out of service, the transfer of power from west
                           to east across the Penelec transmission system is
                           limited due to the contingency overload of critical
                           115 kV and 230 kV facilities in the Erie area. Since
                           the dispatch of the Wayne station can reduce such
                           flows, necessary for the Transmission Operator to
                           request that the Wayne unit be dispatched in a
                           must-run mode for the protection of the transmission
                           systems in the Lake Erie area. This directive is
                           further described in the GPU Energy Bulk Power
                           Operations Memo #5, dated 4/5/93, and as may be
                           further amended from time to time.

                           may be times security analysis programs identify a
                           potential contingency overload of the Company's
                           Transmission Systems that cannot be alleviated by
                           any of the existing operating procedures. At this
                           time, the Producer may be required to increase or
                           reduce the station output in order to maintain the
                           reliability of the Company's Transmission Systems.

                  7.2.3    In the event of a company system-wide blackout, this
                           combustion turbine may be called upon to participate
                           as one of the initial sources of energy during the
                           Company's system restoration. when requested, the
                           Company will require the

                           from the system without Company approval to prevent
                           injury to personnel or equipment damage. If for any
                           reason the disconnection occurs without prior Company
                           approval, the Power Producer shall immediately notify
                           the Transmission Operator as to the energy reduction
                           and the expected return time.

                  2.       In order to support the Transmission Operator's
                           responsibility to plan and operate the normal and
                           emergency operations of the transmission system the
                           Power Producer shall keep the Transmission Operator
                           informed at all times of the Facility's availability
                           or any change(s) to its status.

         C.       VOLTAGE AND REACTIVE CONTROL PROCEDURES

                  The Power Producer shall operate the Facility with automatic
                  voltage regulation equipment in service at all times, except
                  for outages of the regulator for maintenance or equipment
                  failure. Such operation will normally involve a prescribed
                  voltage limited to +/- 1% of schedule. The Power Producer, at
                  the option of the Company, shall operate the Facility either
                  (i) according to a predefined voltage schedule provided by the
                  Company or (ii) according to a reactive power schedule as
                  provided by the Company, consistent with the Facility's
                  generation capability and the Company's electrical system.
                  From time to time, the Company may request alternate schedules
                  consistent with the Facility's generation capability and the
                  Company's electrical system.

                  The Power Producer shall notify the Transmission Operator
                  prior to performing all voltage regulator maintenance. The
                  Power Producer shall notify the Company of the outage with as
                  much lead time as possible. The Power Producer shall minimize
                  the duration of regulator equipment outages. The Power
                  Producer shall notify the Transmission Operator at least 30
                  minutes prior to removing the voltage regulator from service,
                  or returning the voltage regulator to service.

                  The Power Producer may be requested by the Company to deviate
                  from prescribed voltage or reactive power schedules if, in the
                  Company's sole judgment, conditions warrant such changes
                  including, without limitation, operating the Facility in the
                  leading, lagging, or unity power factor mode, but within the
                  capability of the machine.

                  The Power Producer shall operate automatic voltage regulation
                  to a tolerance of +/- 1% of scheduled voltage, except for
                  regulator maintenance outages or equipment failures, or
                  conditions prevailing on the system and/or the Power System
                  which necessitate other voltage levels.

                                      C-5
<PAGE>   88

                  The Power Producer shall provide manual voltage regulation to
                  maintain the prescribed voltage schedule or reactive power
                  schedule during voltage regulator equipment outages.

                  Momentary voltage fluctuations shall be permitted, provided
                  that they neither disturb service provided by the Company or
                  the Power Producer on their respective systems nor hinder the
                  Company from maintaining proper voltage conditions on their
                  respective systems.

         D.       MAINTENANCE SCHEDULING

                  a.       The Power Producer shall provide the Company with at
                           least thirty (30) days prior written notice of its
                           intent to perform a Planned Maintenance of the
                           Facility, including turbine, generator, and boiler
                           overhauls or inspections, testing, and nuclear
                           refueling.

                  b.       The Power Producer shall provide the Company with at
                           least thirty (30) days prior written notice of its
                           intent to test Protective Apparatus associated with
                           Power Producer Interconnection Facilities, including
                           circuit breakers, relays and auxiliary equipment.
                           Company personnel may observe such testing.

                  c.       The Power Producer shall notify the Transmission
                           Operator of its intent to remove electrical equipment
                           from service by 10:00 a.m., five (5) working days
                           prior to, and again 30 minutes before the planned
                           maintenance outage begins. The Transmission Operator
                           may request the Power Producer to delay or reschedule
                           the planned maintenance outage if system reliability
                           conditions warrant.

                  To the extent practical, the Company shall provide to the
                  Power Producer not less than one week advance notice of its
                  intention to perform planned maintenance on its facilities
                  that may affect the Facility's operations. The Company shall
                  notify the Power Producer when any changes occur.

         E.       POWER PRODUCER UNPLANNED OUTAGES

                  The Power Producer may remove any of its equipment from
                  service without prior notification to the Transmission
                  Operator due to an Unplanned Outage. However, if the Power
                  Producer has advance knowledge of an Unplanned Outage, the
                  Power Producer shall notify the Transmission Operator with as
                  much lead time as practical. For reliability reasons the Power
                  Producer shall notify the Transmission Operator as soon as
                  reasonably possible of the following:

                  the starting time of the Unplanned Outage

                  the energy reduction resulting (or expected to result) from
                  the Unplanned Outage

                                      C-6
<PAGE>   89

                  the estimated time the equipment incurring the Unplanned
                  Outage is expected to return to service

                  the time the Power Producer equipment is actually returned to
                  service.

         F.       FACILITY EQUIPMENT AND CONTRACT DATA

                  In order to ensure that all Company personnel responsible for
                  the design and operation of the Company's system affected by
                  the Facility are familiar with its equipment configurations,
                  capabilities and operating parameters, the Company may from
                  time to time request, and the Power Producer shall provide in
                  a timely manner to the Company, detailed information about the
                  type, nature, and operating characteristics of the Facility
                  and all related equipment.

V.       EMERGENCY OPERATION REQUIREMENTS

                  The Power Producer and Company shall maintain communications
                  and contact during all Company or PJM emergency operations.

         A.       SYSTEM EMERGENCY CONDITIONS

                  soon as possible of any forced outages of the Company's
                  electrical system which affect the Facility's operations.

                  When the Transmission Operator has determined that the
                  emergency conditions have been alleviated, he/she shall
                  inform the Power Producer and allow the Facility to return to
                  normal operations consistent with Good Utility Practice.

                  In order to safely and rapidly restore the Transmission System
                  following an outage of any or all of that system, a Facility
                  that has been isolated from the Company's electrical system
                  shall be allowed to reconnect only under the direction of the

                                      C-7

                                  GPU ENERGY'S
                         SYSTEM PROTECTION AND CONTROL
                          INTERCONNECTION REQUIREMENTS

                           Revised: November 17, 1997

A.       DEFINITIONS

         GPU Energy - the trade name used individually and collectively by the
         three operating electric utilities in the GPU system (i.e., Jersey
         Central Power and Light Company, Metropolitan Edison Company, and
         Pennsylvania Electric Company).

         GPU System - the transmission and distribution facilities owned by GPU
         energy.

         Generation Facility - A facility for generating electricity which is
         connected to the GPU system.

         Generation - The electrical energy being produced by: rotating
         generators driven by steam turbines, internal combustion engines,
         hydraulic turbines, windmills, etc; fuel cells, photovoltaic or battery
         arrays with a DC or AC inverter; or any other electric generating
         device.

         Power Producer - The owner or operator of the Generation Facility.

B.       OBJECTIVES

         This document was prepared to assist GPU Energy engineers and Power
         Producers when planning protection and control requirements for
         interconnection between GPU Energy and the Generation Facility.

         To ensure all proposed installations are handled uniformly and to
         minimize the possibility of misinterpreting GPU Energy's

                                      D-1

<PAGE>   96

                  requirements, this document outlines the minimum protection
                  requirements for the safe and effective operation of this
                  interconnection, and provides technical and administrative
                  guidelines.

C.       GENERAL POLICY

                  the minimum protection requirements stated in this document
                  are intended to achieve the following goals:

                  Insure the safety of the general public and GPU Energy
                           personnel.

                  Minimize the possible damage to the property of the general
                           public, GPU Energy, GPU Energy customers, and
                           neighboring utility systems.

                  Minimize adverse conditions on the GPU System.

                  Permit the Power Producer to operate its generating equipment
                           in parallel with the GPU System in a safe and
                           reliable manner.

                  In order to achieve these goals, certain protective devices
                  (relays, circuit breakers, etc.) must be installed to promptly
                  disconnect the Generating Facilities from the GPU System
                  whenever a fault or abnormality occurs. The determination of
                  what type of protective devices are required depends primarily
                  on three (3) major factors:

                           1)       The type and size of the Generation
                                    Facility.

                           2)       The location of the Generation Facility on
                                    the GPU System.

                           3)       The manner in which the installation will
                                    operate.

                  In addition to the protective devices, certain modifications
                  and/or additions may be required to be made to the GPU System
                  due to the addition and/or modification of the Generation
                  Facility. Each request will be handled individually, and the
                  final determination of the protective devices, modifications,
                  and/or additions required will be made by GPU Energy. Any
                  modifications to the GPU Energy distribution or transmission
                  systems necessitated by these changes to the Generation
                  Facility will be specified, purchased, and installed by GPU
                  Energy at the expense of the Power Producer.

                  GPU Energy will work with the Power Producer to achieve an
                  installation which meets the requirements of both the Power
                  Producer and GPU Energy.

                                      D-2
<PAGE>   97
                  GPU Energy cannot assume any responsibility for protection of
                  the Generation Facility's generating equipment, or any portion
                  of the Generation Facility's equipment. The Power Producer is
                  solely responsible for protecting its equipment in such a
                  manner that faults, imbalances or other disturbances on the
                  GPU System do not cause damage to the Generation Facility's
                  equipment.

                  It is the responsibility of the Power Producer to comply with
                  all applicable Federal, State, and Local Regulatory Agencies
                  and all electrical and safety codes. Further, the Power
                  Producer may be required, in GPU Energy's sole and exclusive
                  judgement, to retrofit its interconnection protection systems
                  due to obsolescence, operational problems, enhancements in
                  microprocessor/solid state technology leading to improved
                  sensitivity, modifications to the GPU system or the Generation
                  Facility, and in accordance with the most recently published
                  industry standards and practices.

                  Any interconnection of a Generation Facility the GPU System
                  must not impair the quality and quantity of transmission or
                  distribution service available to its customers, create
                  reliability problems, or interfere with the operation and
                  economic dispatch of power sources in which GPU Energy has
                  entitlement or with GPU Energy's ability to carry out its
                  obligations under pre-existing agreements.

                  A Generation Facility will not be permitted to be connected to
                  the GPU Energy low voltage (< 1 kV) looped network system.

                  A GPU Energy controlled disconnecting device is required on
                  the GPU Energy side of all Generation Facility interties.

                  A Generation Facility's disconnection device used to isolate
                  the facility's generation from the GPU System shall be blocked
                  from closing in on a de-energized utility circuit.

                  The Power Producer is responsible for properly synchronizing
                  its generation with the GPU System.

         D.       REVIEW PROCESS

                  In order to process all Power Producer requests in an
                  efficient and consistent manner, the following Review Process
                  for Protection Requirements must be followed.

                  protective equipment required pursuant to Section D.1.(g) must
                  contain at least one vendor original copy. All information
                  supplied for this review process shall be Final/As-Built
                  submittal information.

                  Upon GPU Energy's completion of its initial review of the
                  Power Producer's final submittal, the Power Producer's
                  representative will be notified of any final modifications
                  and/or additions required to the GPU System or to the
                  Generation Facility. Upon the Generation Facility's
                  satisfactory completion, as determined by GPU Energy in its
                  sole and exclusive judgement, of any required final
                  modifications and/or additions, GPU Energy will notify the
                  Power Producer's representative that the Final Protection
                  Requirements Review process has been completed.

E.       DESIGN CONSIDERATION

         1.       Automatic Reclosing

                  The need for automatic reclosing modifications is directed
                  towards protection of the GPU System and the equipment of GPU
                  Energy customers from potential damage. It is the Power
                  Producer's responsibility to evaluate the potential effect of
                  GPU Energy's reclosing practices on its generator and to
                  provide suitable protection.

                  GPU Energy normally provides automatic multiple shot reclosing
                  with no intentional time delay on the first shot on all
                  distribution line circuit breakers. Additionally, automatic
                  sectionalizing for faults is provided on the distribution
                  system with electronic and hydraulic reclosers that reclose in
                  approximately 2 seconds following a trip operation. To protect
                  both GPU Energy and GPU Energy customers' equipment from
                  possible damage but to out-of phase reclosing, the substation
                  distribution

                                      D-5

<PAGE>   100
                  line circuit breaker and the line reclosers may have to be
                  modified, at the expense of the Power Producer, with voltage
                  check relays unless the size and characteristics of the
                  generator indicate that immediate reclosing would not be
                  hazardous to the GPU System. These relays will block reclosing
                  until the parallel generation on a line or line section is
                  de-energized.

                  Lines operated at 34.5 kV Delta and above also utilize
                  multi-shot automatic reclosing with the first shot delayed
                  approximately 20 cycles. Reclosing logic for these lines must
                  be modified, at the expense of the Power Producer, to include
                  synchronism checking.

         2.       Protection Requirements

                  Typical protection is illustrated in Appendix A Figures 1 and
                  2 inclusive.

                  The design of the Isolation and Fault Protection shall be
                  based upon a single failure philosophy, i.e., the failure of
                  any single component shall not render the protection
                  inoperative.

                  Isolation and fault protective relays shall be purchased,
                  installed and owned by the Power Producer. The required fault
                  and isolation protection shall be utility grade and conform to
                  the most recent ANSI Standard C37.90. Only solid
                  state/microprocessor based relay models are acceptable.

                  Isolation Protection

                  All relay settings associated with the Isolation Protection
                  shall be specified by GPU Energy.

                  GPU Energy shall have exclusive control and access to the
                  Isolation Protection.

                  a)       Undervoltage (27) with Time Delay (62). Relay to be
                           set at approximately 90% of nominal voltage (108
                           secondary volts on a 120 volt base). Time delay to be
                           set at approximately 2.0 seconds in order to provide
                           coordination with motor starting and system faults.

                  b)       Overvoltage (59) with Time Delay (62). Relay to be
                           set at approximately 110% of nominal voltage (132

                                      D-6

<PAGE>   101
       secondary volts on a 120 volt base). Time delay to be set at
       approximately 2.0 seconds to over-ride relay response to transients and
       external fault clearing which may cause nuisance operations.

c)     Overfrequency (810). Relay to be set at 60.5 Hertz with no intentional
       time delay in its operation.

d)     Underfrequency (81U) with Time Delay (62). Relay to be set at 57.5 Hertz
       with a 5.0 second time delay. This setting is necessary in order to
       coordinate with GPU Energy's system loadshedding underfrequency relaying.
       GPU Energy, as a member of the Pennsylvania - New Jersey - Maryland
       Interconnection (PJM) agreement, has agreed to trip generators connected
       to its system at a frequency of 57.5 Hertz after a delay of 5.0 seconds.
       Therefore, the Power Producer must also comply with this agreement. The
       Power Producer is responsible to insure that setting is compatible with
       all equipment purchased, installed and operated at the Generation
       Facility.

Fault Protection

Generation Facility's fault protection shall coordinate with GPU System
protective devices for faults. All fault protection settings are to be specified
by the Power Producer and approved by GPU Energy for coordination purposes only.

e)     Out-of-Step Relaying (21 205). Relays maybe required to isolate the
       generator from the GPU System during unstable conditions. The need for
       out-of-step relaying will be based on the results of stability studies.
       The Power Producer will be responsible for providing the appropriate
       relay and settings.

f)     Synchronism Check (25). A synchronism check relay will be required on all
       breakers that may be used to synchronize the generator to the system. The
       synchronism check relay shall be capable of being set for an angular
       difference of 10-60 degrees and have an internal timer function allowing
       a time delay setting between 0.5-5 seconds. The relay chosen must also
       have an optional hot-bus dead-line; dead-bus hot-line accessory.

g)     Non-directional phase overcurrent (50/51), non-directional ground
       overcurrent (50/51G), and non-directional neutral overcurrent (51N)
       relays. Where high-side of transformer (GPU System side) is
<PAGE>   102
                                    connected to the GPU System via a device
                                    other than a fuse, the above mentioned
                                    protective relays are required. Current
                                    transformers for the 50/51 and 50/51G relays
                                    shall be located on the high-side of the
                                    transformers protective device (breaker,
                                    circuit switcher, etc.)  If high-side
                                    grounding of the transformer is provided,
                                    the 51N relay shall be connected to a
                                    current transformer installed in the neutral
                                    connection of the transformer.

                           h)       Voltage controlled time overcurrent relays
                                    (51V). In applications where the Generation
                                    Facility is interconnected to GPU Energy's
                                    distribution system (34.5 kV Wye and below),
                                    voltage - controlled time overcurrent relays
                                    must be provided. These relays shall be
                                    connected to current transformers located on
                                    the generator or its associated breaker.
                                    These relays shall receive potential from
                                    the generator voltage transformers.

                           i)       System backup impedance (21) relay(s). In
                                    applications where the Generation Facility
                                    is interconnected to GPU Energy's
                                    transmission system (34.5 kV Delta and
                                    above), an impedance relay must be provided
                                    as a backup function to clear faults on the
                                    GPU Energy System. This relay(s) shall be
                                    connected to current transformers located on
                                    the generator or its associated breaker.
                                    These relays shall receive potential from
                                    the generator voltage transformers. An
                                    external timer (0.1 - 5.0 sec) must be
                                    provided if not provided internal to the
                                    impedance relay design. Time delay will be
                                    typically set between 1.0 and 2.0 seconds.

F.       CONTROL SYSTEMS

         The Power Producer has the option to use either an AC or DC control
         system as described below.

         1.       AC SYSTEM

                  The AC control system supply must use 60 Hz power derived from
                  the GPU Energy line. The system must be designed to be
                  fail-safe and the failure of any single component must result
                  in a trip of the generator breaker.

                  NOTE: In AC powered schemes, the generator breaker will
                  probably be a contactor. In such cases, a latching contactor
                  is not acceptable. The AC System shall use continuously
                  energized auxiliary relays with contacts arranged to trip the
                  generator circuit breaker whenever

                                      D-8
<PAGE>   103
                  the relays drop out. If a molded case circuit breaker (or
                  equal) is used, it must be equipped with an undervoltage trip
                  option.

                  All installations must isolate (trip) the generator in such a
                  manner that (i) a manual operation, (ii) a time-delayed
                  automatic synchro-check, or (iii) voltage check supervised
                  operation is required to close the generator or
                  point-of-contact breaker (contactor) after the GPU Energy
                  source has returned to normal.

                  Under no circumstances is the generator contactor (breaker) to
                  close immediately upon restoration of the GPU Energy source.

                  A white lamp should be provided to monitor the AC source and
                  shall have a nameplate.

         2.       DC SYSTEM

                  This system must use a battery of 48 or 125 VDC to supply
                  tripping energy to the generator circuit breaker.

                  All such installations must isolate (trip) the generator in
                  such a manner that (i) a manual operation, (ii) a time-delayed
                  automatic synchro-check, or (iii) voltage check supervised
                  operation is required to close the generator or
                  point-of-contact breaker (contactor) after the GPU Energy
                  source has returned to normal.

                  Under no circumstances is the generator contactor (breaker)
                  to close immediately upon restoration of the GPU Energy
                  source.

                  An amber or yellow lamp shall provided to monitor the DC
                  source and shall have a nameplate.

G.       TARGETS

         All protective relays shall be equipped with targets that indicate
         operation. These targets are to be arranged in the control circuit to
         operate only when the associated relays trip the generator or point-of-
         contact circuit breaker.

                                      D-9
<PAGE>   104
H.       REMOTE TERMINAL UNIT (RTU)

         For all Generation Facility installations, a Remote Terminal Unit (RTU)
         will be purchased and installed by GPU Energy at the expense of the
         Power Producer. This RTU will utilize the CDC II protocol and provide
         the necessary point counts required by the Energy Management System
         (EMS) of GPU Energy to operate and monitor the generation and
         interconnection facilities at the Generation Facility site. Point count
         will include, but not be limited to, analog, MWH, control, and status.

         The Power Producer will provide an indoor weather controlled location
         to mount an RTU and supply a four (4) wire data telephone circuit in
         order for the RTU to communicate with the GPU Energy EMS. Furthermore,
         a telephone and telephone circuit must be provided in the location of
         the RTU in order that GPU Energy personnel may communicate with the
         distribution or transmission operator for installation and maintenance
         purposes.

         If necessary, provisions shall be made at the bottom of each enclosure
         to allow all cables to be wired to the RTU. The Power Producer must
         also supply the power necessary for the RTU. The supply power can be,
         but not limited to, 125 VDC, 120 VAC, and 48 VDC.

I.       GROUNDING

         Neutral and ground are not to be confused. All current and potential
         neutrals are to be isolated from all other circuits. Each neutral is to
         be grounded at one point only. The preferred grounding location will be
         at the protective relay cabinet, on the internal side of the States
         links.

J.       WIRING

         All wiring must agree exactly with schematics and wiring drawings.

         All wires must be anchored to the cabinet or bundled when running
         between devices. Bundling is permitted but all wiring must be
         traceable. Wiring must be installed so that it can be visually traced
         and checked. Use of conduit, or equal, wire trough is generally
         acceptable but must be verified with GPU Energy.

         Wiring shall be installed so as to avoid damage to the cable and its
         insulation. Movement of the hinged panel shall not damage the cable or
         its insulation or cause stress to the termination points on the panel
         or on the door.

                                      D-10
<PAGE>   105
Wiring and device location shall not prevent the removal of any equipment,
block access to equipment for inspection and maintenance, nor block spare space
in the cabinet.

All equipment shall be mounted and wired in such a manner that no energized
terminals are exposed or accessible to personnel with the hinged relay panel in
a closed position.

Any protective relay not equipped with internal isolation device must be
connected through an external test device (i.e., ABB FT-1 on sliding link
terminal blocks as determined and approved by GPU Energy.)

All incoming and outgoing cables/conductors will terminate on sliding link
terminal blocks located in the protective relay cabinet.

Terminal blocks shall be the States Company Type NT or equivalent.

The incoming side shall have one (1) nut, for mounting incoming cables.

The internal panel side shall have double nuts for mounting of internal wires
and marker tags. Marker tags should carry wire or cable conductor
identification.

Terminal blocks shall be mounted such that the connections and lines are
accessible and not blocked by projecting equipment.

Terminal blocks shall be mounted a minimum of 6" from side walls and adjacent
equipment and a minimum of 4" above the bottom of the housing.

Terminal blocks shall be mounted such that the sliding link:

         Falls closed when loosened, if mounted in horizontal rows;

         Moves toward the front of the cabinet when opened, if mounted in
         vertical rows on side panels;

                                      D-11

<PAGE>   106
                  Moves away from the panel centerline when opened, if mounted
                  on the rear panel.

         There shall be a minimum of 10% or 2, whichever is greater, spare
         terminals included in the cabinet for modifications.

         Pressure type connections with insulated sleeves shall be used.

         Ring tongue lugs which completely encircle the screw or the stud shall
         be used.

         The crimping tool must be one approved by the Manufacturer for use on
         the connector.

         No soldered terminals or connections shall be used.

Switching Station Owners shall promptly notify the Generating Station Owners if
it receives notice or otherwise concludes that the production of any information
subject to this Section 7.1 is being sought under any provision of law and the

Station Owners shall hold in confidence, unless compelled to disclose by
judicial or administrative process or other provisions of law, all documents and
information furnished by the Switching Station Owners in connection with this
Agreement and which is marked "Confidential" or "Proprietary" or is otherwise
identified as containing information which the Switching Station Owners require
not be publicly disclosed. Except to the extent that such information or
documents are (a) generally available to the public other than as a result of a
disclosure by the Generating Station Owners, (b) available to the Generating

reasonable effort could not be known, by the Generating Station Owners to be

regulations, as amended from time to time. Except as provided herein, neither
Party will disclose the audit information to any third party without the other
Party's prior written consent. Audit information in the possession of the Party
not being audited shall be subject to all provisions of Article 7.

     7.4  Remedies.  The Parties agree that monetary damages would be

of injunction or otherwise, if the first Party breaches or threatens to breach
its obligations under this Article 7, which equitable relief shall be granted
without bond or proof of damages, and the receiving Party shall not plead in
defense that there would be an adequate remedy at law.

its excuse from performance. All performance obligations hereunder shall be
extended by a period equal to the term of the resultant delay.

                 14.1.1.1  Each of the Generation Station Owners may assign (a)
all of its rights and obligations hereunder to any assignee of that individual
Generating Station Owner which acquires all, or substantially all of that
Generating Station Owner's interest in Conemaugh Station, or (b) any of its
rights and obligations hereunder to an Affiliate to the extent necessary for the
qualification of such Generating Station Owner as an exempt wholesale generator
under Section 32 of the Public Utility Holding Company Act of 1935, as amended.
Upon the Switching Station Owners' receipt of notice from the Generating Station
Owner of any such assignment, such assignee will be deemed to have assumed,
ratified, agreed to be bound by and perform all such obligations, and all
references herein to "Generating Station Owners" shall thereafter be deemed to

further act or evidence by the Parties hereto or such assignee. The Switching
Station Owners agree to execute and deliver, at the Generating Station Owner's
expense, such documents as may

                                       34

be reasonably necessary to accomplish any such assignment. Any assignment
described in this Section 14.1.1.1 shall not relieve or discharge any of the

except where one of the following criteria is satisfied:

          (a)  the assignee has an Investment Grade Credit Rating;

          (b)  the obligations of the assignee are guaranteed by an entity with
     an Investment Grade Credit Rating; or

          (c)  the assignment is being made in connection with a merger,
     consolidation or sale of substantially all the assignor's interests in the
     Conemaugh Station to another party that has senior long-term debt with a
     credit rating that is at least equal to that of the assignor or the
     obligations of the assignee are guaranteed by an entity that has senior
     long-term debt with a credit rating that is at least equal to that of the
     assignor.

Upon the satisfaction of any of the above stated criteria, the non-assigning
Party shall be obligated to release the assigning Party from liability, and
shall execute all documents reasonably requested by the assigning Party to
reflect such release.

                 14.1.1.2  Each of the Generating Station Owners or its
assignee may assign, transfer, pledge, or otherwise dispose of its rights and
interests hereunder to a trustee or lending institution for the purposes of
financing or refinancing the Generating Station Owners' Facilities, including
upon or pursuant to the exercise of remedies with respect to such financing or
refinancing, or by way of assignments, transfers, pledges, or other

described in this Section 14.1.1.2 shall relieve or discharge any of the
Generating Station Owners from any of its obligations hereunder. The Switching
Station Owners agree to execute and deliver, at the Generating Station Owner's
expense, such documents as may be reasonably necessary to accomplish any such
assignment, transfer, pledge, or other disposition of rights hereunder for
purposes of the financing or refinancing of the Generating Station Owners'
Facilities, so long as the Switching Station Owners' rights under this
Agreement are not thereby altered, amended, diminished or otherwise impaired.

of its rights and obligations hereunder to any assignee of that individual
Switching Station Owner which acquires all, or substantially all of that
Switching Station Owner's interest in the Switching Station Owners' Facilities.
Upon the Generating Station Owners' receipt of notice from the Switching
Station Owner of any such assignment, such assignee will be deemed to have
assumed, ratified, agreed to be bound by and perform all such obligations, and
all references herein to "Switching Station Owners" shall thereafter be deemed
to include references to such assignee, in each case without the necessity for
further act or evidence by the Parties hereto or such assignee. The Generating
Station Owners agree to execute and deliver, at the Switching

                                       35

Station Owner's expense, such documents as may be reasonably necessary to
accomplish any such assignment. Any assignment described in this Section
14.1.2.1 shall not relieve or discharge any of the Switching Station Owners

non-assigning Party to such release from liability except where one of the
following criteria is satisfied:

Upon the satisfaction of any of the above stated criteria, the non-assigning
Party shall be obligated to release the assigning Party from liability, and
shall execute all documents reasonably requested by the assigning Party to
reflect such release.

may assign, transfer, pledge, or otherwise dispose of its rights and interests
hereunder to a trustee or lending institution for the purposes of financing or
refinancing the Switching Station Owners' Facilities, including upon or
pursuant to the exercise of remedies with respect to such financing or
refinancing, or by way of assignments, transfers, pledges, or other
dispositions in lieu thereof, provided, however, that no such assignment
described in this Section 14.1.2.2. shall relieve or discharge any of the
Switching Station Owners from any of its obligations hereunder. The Generating
Station Owners agree to execute and deliver, at the Switchyard Owner's expense,
such documents as may be reasonably necessary to accomplish any such
assignment, transfer, pledge, or other disposition of rights hereunder for
purposes of the financing or refinancing of the Switching Station Owners'
Facilities, so long as the Generating Station Owners' rights under this
Agreement are not thereby altered, amended, diminished or otherwise impaired.

                adverse effect on the operation of the Switching Station Owners'
                Facilities.

7   Operating Requirements
    7.1  Station Service
         7.1.1  The Generating Station Owners will consult with the Switching
                Station Owners to coordinate the timing and nature of
                operations that might reasonably be expected to affect the
                continuous operation of the 4160 volt service supply to the
                substation
    7.2  Current and Potential Circuits
         7.2.1  The Generating Station Owners and the Switching Station Owners
                will consult in performing any work which might be reasonably
                expected to affect the continuous operation of the substation
                or generating units in accordance with Section 3.14.2 of the
                Interconnection Agreement.
         7.2.2  In particular, this will include the potential transformers in

                maintained by the Switching Station Owners for the Generating
                Station Owners' convenience and will be operated by the
                Generating Station Owners' personnel only at the direction of
                the Transmission Operator.
         7.3.2  In compliance with FERC Standards of Conduct, the Switching

                the failure to do so is reasonably likely to have an material
                adverse effect on the operation of the Switching Station
                Owners' Facilities.
    7.5  Transmission Operating Requirements
         7.5.1  Conemaugh Unit Stability: A procedure has been developed to
                protect the Conemaugh units from an unstable operation when any
                of the three 500

                                      A 3
<PAGE>   67
                kV lines at Conemaugh are out of service and the Keystone No. 1
                and No. 2 units are generating at their full output (850 MW).
                When such a condition exists, a fault on one of the two
                remaining 500 kV lines at Conemaugh will isolate the output of
                the Conemaugh units onto one transmission line and can result
                in their instability and trip. To prevent this from occurring,
                the Conemaugh unit outputs must be restricted on a
                pre-contingency basis. The following potential transmission
                outages could occur and the PJM procedures are in place to
                protect the Conemaugh units: (a) When the Keystone-Conemaugh
                (5003) 500 kV line is out of service, a fault on either the
                Conemaugh-Juniata (5005) 500 kV line or Conemaugh-Hunterstown
                (5006) 500 kV line can cause an instability of the Conemaugh
                units. To control for this situation, the PJM System Operator
                will limit the total net output of the Conemaugh generating
                units to 1570 MW. (b) When the Conemaugh-Hunterstown (5006) 500
                kV line is out of service, a fault on the Keystone-Conemaugh
                (5003) 500 kV line can cause an instability of the Conemaugh
                units. To control for this situation, the PJM System Operator
                will limit the total net output of the Conemaugh generating
                units to 1605 MW. (c) When the Conemaugh-Juniata (5005) 500 kV
                line is out of service, a fault on the Keystone-Conemaugh
                (5003) 500 kV line can cause an instability of the Conemaugh
                units. To control for this situation, the PJM System Operator
                will either limit the total net output of the Conemaugh
                generating units to 1605 MW or enable the Conemaugh Unit No. 2
                Stability Trip Scheme.
         7.5.2  Unit No. 2 Unit Stability Trip Scheme: A protective relay
                scheme is enabled at Conemaugh whenever the Conemaugh-Juniata
                (5005) 500 kV line is out of service. The purpose of this scheme
                is to trip the Conemaugh Unit No. 2 should the Keystone-Juniata
                (5004) 500 kV line be opened for any reason. Such an occurrence
                would result in an instability and trip of both Conemaugh units
                and jeopardize the security of the PJM 500 kV transmission
                system. The PJM will direct the enabling of this scheme only
                when normal conditions are expected to exist and following a
                pre-evaluation of the Conemaugh-Juniata 500 kV line outage in
                accordance with the established PJM procedures. The
                Transmission Operator will direct qualified personnel at the
                Conemaugh Station to enable and disable this scheme in
                accordance with the directions from PJM.
         7.5.3  Reclosing 500 kV lines: All aerial 500 kV lines are designed
                for automatic reclosure after their trip. If a 500 kV line
                trips and does not return to service when automatically
                reclosed, or if the automatic reclosing fails to occur, the
                line will be tried back once manually five (5) minutes after
                the tripping occurs. If a 500 kV line that was successfully
                reclosed five (5) minutes after the trip-out trips a second
                time, the source of the trouble is to be determined by foot
                patrol, aerial patrol, report of trouble, or by any other means
                available. Manual try-backs on lines which trip a second time
                after having been successfully reclosed five (5) minutes after
                tripping are not to be attempted until some period of time has
                elapsed (30 minutes or longer). PJM will not direct the manual
                reclosing of any 500 kV line without the concurrence of the
                Transmission Operator.
         7.5.4  Closing of the 5003 Keystone-Conemaugh line: A procedure has
                been

                                      A 4
<PAGE>   68
                 developed to protect the Conemaugh units from experiencing an
                 excessive torque on their turbine-generator shafts when
                 reclosing the Keystone-Conemaugh (5003) 500 kV line. Such a
                 protecting scheme is required to prevent a power surge into the
                 Conemaugh 500 kV bus from causing an excessive power swing on
                 each of the Conemaugh generating units. Such a swing can result
                 in a  trip of the Conemaugh units and can potentially damage
                 equipment at the plant. The implementation of this procedure
                 requires that the phase angle across the Keystone #5003 circuit
                 breaker at Conemaugh be no greater than 17 degrees prior to
                 its reclosure. This phase angle is monitored by the
                 Transmission Operator and can be estimated from the algebraic
                 difference between the MW flows on the Keystone-Juniata 500 kV
                 line and the Conemaugh-Juniata 200 KV lines should the SCADA
                 point be unavailable. Based on studies, the difference in flow
                 must be less than 1200 MW before closing can be permitted.
                 Should either the monitored phase angle or the actual power
                 flows exceed their established limit, it will be necessary to
                 reduce the output of the Conemaugh generating units before
                 reclosing the Keystone-Conemaugh (5003) 500 kV line. This
                 procedure is fully described in the GPU Energy Bulk Power
                 Operations Memo No. 4, dated April 5, 1993 and as may be
                 further amended from time to time.

          7.5.5  Unit 1 Reactive Output Limit: With the Conemaugh Unit 1
                 generator voltage regulator in the manual mode and the
                 Conemaugh Unit 2 off-line, a contingency loss of the
                 Keystone-Conemaugh (5003) 500 KV line can cause the Conemaugh
                 voltage to reach as high as 580 kV when the Conemaugh 200 MVAR
                 capacitor is in-service. This voltage exceeds the manufacturers
                 rating of all the 200 kV transmission facilities at Conemaugh
                 and can result in equipment damage or failure. To prevent this
                 occurrence, the Conemaugh Unit 1 reactive output must be
                 restricted to less than 110 MVAR when such a condition exists.

          7.5.6  During the daily operation of the PJM system, there may be
                 times when the PJM security analysis programs identify a
                 potential contingency overload of the Transmission Systems at
                 Conemaugh that cannot be alleviated by any of the existing
                 operating procedures. When such a condition occurs, the
                 Locational Marginal Price (LMP) for the Conemaugh 500 kV busses
                 will likely be adjusted to send the proper economic signals to
                 those causing the transmission congestion. This may even
                 include setting a highly negative LMP at these busses. Should
                 such action fail to resolve the congestion created, the
                 Generating Station Owners may be required to reduce the station
                 output in order to maintain the reliability of the Transmission
                 Systems.

8    Metering
     8.1  Meter Compensation: The meters at this Generating Plant are not
          physically located at the Points of Interconnection. Therefore, the
          metering will be compensated (fixed and variable) to record the
          delivery of electricity in a manner that account for the total
          (no-load and load) electrical energy losses which occur between the
          metering and the Point of Interconnection
