                              REMARKETING AGREEMENT

     THIS REMARKETING AGREEMENT (the "Agreement") dated as of September 1, 2006
is made by and between Snowflake White Mountain Power, LLC (the "Company"), an
Arizona limited liability company and a wholly-owned indirect subsidiary of NZ
Legacy, LLC, an Arizona limited liability company, and Thornton Farish Inc.

     The Industrial Development Authority of the City of Show Low, Arizona (the
"Issuer"), a nonprofit corporation designated as a political subdivision under
the Constitution and laws of the State of Arizona, is issuing $39,250,000
aggregate principal amount of its Solid Waste Disposal Revenue Bonds (Snowflake
White Mountain Power, LLC Project) Series 2006 (the "Bonds") pursuant to an
Indenture of Trust dated as of September 1, 2006 (the "Indenture") between the
Issuer and J.P. Morgan Trust Company, National Association, as trustee (the
"Trustee").

     The proceeds of the sale of the Bonds will be used to provide funds to loan
to the Company pursuant to the Loan Agreement dated as of September 1, 2006,
between the Issuer and the Company, to finance the costs of the acquisition,
construction and installation of certain solid waste disposal facilities for use
by the Company, as part of the Company's electric generation facility in Navajo
County, Arizona.

     The Company will also cause CoBank, ACB (the "Fronting Credit Facility
Provider"), to deliver its irrevocable direct-pay letter of credit (the
"Fronting Credit Facility") to the Trustee and will cause JPMorgan Chase Bank,
N.A. (the "Confirming Credit Facility Provider," and together with the Fronting
Credit Facility Provider, the "Credit Facility Provider") to deliver its
irrevocable confirmation (the "Confirming Credit Facility," and together with
the Fronting Credit Facility, the "Credit Facility") to the Trustee, to support
payment of the principal and purchase prices of and interest on the Bonds during
the term of the Credit Facility.

     Intending to be legally bound, the parties hereto agree as follows:

     1. Acceptance of Appointment and Obligations of Remarketing Agent.

     (a) Thornton Farish Inc. hereby accepts its appointment as the Remarketing
Agent (the "Remarketing Agent") for the Bonds and hereby accepts and agrees to
perform the duties and obligations imposed upon it as Remarketing Agent under
the Indenture. The Remarketing Agent hereby represents that it is qualified to
act as Remarketing Agent in accordance with the requirements of the Indenture
and agrees to abide by all of the provisions of the Indenture insofar as they
govern its activities as Remarketing Agent for the Bonds. The Remarketing Agent
will promptly notify the Company if it ceases to meet the requirements of the
Indenture. Unless defined otherwise, all terms used herein shall have the same
meaning as in the Indenture.

     (b) The Remarketing Agent shall determine the Weekly Rates and, if
applicable, the Fixed Rate in accordance with Article II of the Indenture, and
shall give notice of such rates in the manner and to the persons specified
therein.

<PAGE>

     (c) The Remarketing Agent shall keep such books and records with respect to
its duties as Remarketing Agent as shall be consistent with prudent industry
practice and shall make such books and records available for inspection by the
Issuer, the Trustee and the Company at all reasonable times during its normal
business hours.

     (d) The Remarketing Agent shall use its best efforts to remarket Bonds in
accordance with the Indenture and perform all other duties assigned to it under
the Indenture.

     (e) The Remarketing Agent shall hold all Bonds delivered to it for the
benefit of the respective registered owners of the Bonds which shall have so
delivered such Bonds until moneys representing the purchase price of such Bonds
shall have been delivered to or for the account of or to the order of such
registered owners.

     (f) The Remarketing Agent shall hold all moneys delivered to it for the
purchase of Bonds in trust for the benefit of the person or entity which shall
have so delivered such moneys until the Bonds purchased with such moneys shall
have been delivered to or for the account of such person or entity.

     (g) The Remarketing Agent will not offer any of the Bonds in any
jurisdiction except under circumstances that will result in compliance with the
applicable laws thereof.

     2. Fees and Expenses. While the Bonds bear interest at the Weekly Rate, the
Company shall pay the Remarketing Agent, as compensation for its services
hereunder, a fee equal to one-tenth of one percent (.10%) per annum of the
weighted average principal amount of Bonds outstanding during each three-month
period, or such other amount as may be agreed upon from time to time by the
Company and the Remarketing Agent, payable quarterly in arrears on each January
1, April 1, July 1 and October 1, commencing October 1, 2006. The Remarketing
Agent will not be entitled to compensation after this Remarketing Agreement
shall be terminated except for a pro rata portion of the fee in respect of the
quarter in which such termination occurs. Additionally, the Company will
reimburse the Remarketing Agent for its reasonable out-of-pocket expenses in
performing its obligations hereunder, including, without limitation, expenses
incurred in the preparation and distribution of the disclosure documents
referred to in Section 3 hereof and in connection with any proposed conversion
of the Bonds from the Weekly Rate Period to the Fixed Rate Period. The Issuer
shall have no responsibility, obligation or liability with respect to any
payments hereunder. The parties anticipate that separate arrangements for
compensation will be made for the remarketing of Bonds in connection with a
conversion from the Weekly Rate Period to the Fixed Rate Period at the time of
such conversion.

     3. Disclosure Document. If required under any applicable law or as a result
of any material change in the information in a disclosure document theretofore
used by the Remarketing Agent in connection with the remarketing of the Bonds
(which may include the Official Statement distributed in connection with the
sale of the Bonds by the Underwriter (the "Official Statement")), the Company
promptly will provide the Remarketing Agent with a disclosure document
reasonably satisfactory to the Remarketing Agent and its counsel in respect of
the Bonds. The Company will supply the Remarketing Agent with such number of
copies of the disclosure document as the Remarketing Agent reasonably requests
from time to time. The

                                       -2-

<PAGE>

Company will supplement and amend the disclosure document so that, at all times
when used in connection with the remarketing of the Bonds, the disclosure
document will not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to
state a material fact necessary to make the statements in the disclosure
document, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not
misleading. The Company shall not, however, be required to make representations
or warranties as to statements or omissions based upon information furnished to
the Company in writing by or on behalf of the Remarketing Agent expressly for
use therein.

     The Company agrees to notify the Remarketing Agent promptly in writing of
the occurrence of any of the following events:

     (a) any Default or Event of Default under the Indenture of which it has
knowledge;

     (b) any notice to the Company from the Trustee that it intends to resign;

     (c) any event with respect to the Bonds which requires the delivery of an
opinion of Bond Counsel pursuant to the Indenture;

     (d) any optional redemption or extraordinary optional redemption pursuant
to the Indenture; or

     (e) any mandatory redemption pursuant to the Indenture.

     The Company hereby acknowledges the requirements imposed on the Remarketing
Agent by Securities and Exchange Commission Rule 15c2-12, as amended (the
"Rule"). The Bonds are currently exempt under Section (d)(1) of the Rule. The
Company covenants and agrees that, should the Bonds no longer be exempt under
the Rule, the Company will comply with the continuing disclosure requirements
pursuant to Section (b)(5)(i) of the Rule and take such other actions as shall
be reasonably necessary to enable the Remarketing Agent to comply with the Rule.

     4. Indemnification. The Company agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the
Remarketing Agent, its directors, officers and employees and each person, if
any, who controls the Remarketing Agent within the meaning of either Section 15
of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), or Section 20
of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), from
and against any and all losses, claims, damages and liabilities (a) caused by
any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in
any disclosure document referred to in Section 3 hereof distributed in
connection with the remarketing of the Bonds or caused by any omission or
alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein
or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under
which they were made, not misleading, except insofar as such losses, claims,
damages or liabilities are caused by any such untrue statement or omission or
alleged untrue statement or omission based upon information relating to the
Remarketing Agent furnished to the Company in writing by the Remarketing Agent
expressly for use therein, or (b) arising out of or based upon an allegation or
determination that the Bonds or any other security relating to the Bonds should
have been registered under the Securities Act or the

                                       -3-
<PAGE>

Exchange Act or the Indenture should have been qualified under the Trust
Indenture Act of 1939, as amended, in connection with the reoffering and sale of
the Bonds.

     The Remarketing Agent agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Company,
its directors, officers and employees, and each person, if any, who controls the
Company within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of
the Exchange Act, to the same extent as set forth in paragraph (a) of the
foregoing indemnity from the Company to the Remarketing Agent, but only with
reference to information relating to the Remarketing Agent furnished to the
Company in writing by the Remarketing Agent expressly for use in any disclosure
document.

     In case any proceeding (including any governmental investigation) shall be
instituted involving any person in respect of which indemnity may be sought
pursuant to either of the two preceding paragraphs, such person (hereinafter
called the "indemnified party") shall promptly notify the person against whom
such indemnity may be sought (hereinafter called the "indemnifying party") in
writing and the indemnifying party, upon request of the indemnified party, shall
retain counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party to represent the
indemnified party and any others the indemnifying party may designate in such
proceeding and shall pay the fees and disbursements of such counsel related to
such proceeding. In any such proceeding, any indemnified party shall have the
right to retain its own counsel, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall
be at the expense of such indemnified party unless (i) the indemnifying party
and the indemnified party shall have mutually agreed to the retention of such
counsel or (ii) the named parties to any such proceeding (including any
impleaded parties) include both the indemnifying party and the indemnified party
and representation of both parties by the same counsel would be inappropriate
due to actual or potential differing interests between them. It is understood
that the indemnifying party shall not, in connection with any proceeding or
related proceedings in the same jurisdiction, be liable for the fees and
expenses of more than one separate firm (in addition to any local counsel) for
all such indemnified parties, and that all such fees and expenses shall be
reimbursed as they are incurred. Such firm shall be designated in writing by the
Remarketing Agent in the case of parties indemnified pursuant to the second
preceding paragraph and by the Company in the case of parties indemnified
pursuant to the first preceding paragraph. The indemnifying party shall not be
liable for any settlement of any proceeding effected without its written
consent, but if settled with such consent or if there be a final judgment for
the plaintiff, the indemnifying party agrees to indemnify the indemnified party
from and against any loss or liability by reason of such settlement or judgment.
Notwithstanding the foregoing sentence, if at any time an indemnified party
shall have requested an indemnifying party to reimburse the indemnified party
for fees and expenses of counsel as contemplated by the third sentence of this
paragraph, the indemnifying party agrees that it shall be liable for any
settlement of any proceeding effected without its written consent if (i) such
settlement is entered into more than 30 days after receipt by such indemnifying
party of the aforesaid request and (ii) such indemnifying party shall not have
reimbursed the indemnified party in accordance with such request prior to the
date of such settlement. No indemnifying party shall, without the prior written
consent of the indemnified party, effect any settlement of any pending or
threatened proceeding in respect of which any indemnified party is or could have
been a party and indemnity could have been sought hereunder by such indemnified
party, unless such settlement

                                       -4-

<PAGE>

includes an unconditional release of such indemnified party from all liability
on claims that are the subject matter of such proceeding.

     If the indemnification provided for in the first or second paragraph of
this Section 4 is unavailable to an indemnified party under such paragraph in
respect of any losses, claims, damages or liabilities referred to therein, then
the indemnifying party under such paragraph, in lieu of indemnifying such
indemnified party, shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such
indemnified party as a result of such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (i)
in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received
by the Company and the Remarketing Agent from the remarketing of the Bonds or
(ii) if the allocation provided by clause (i) above is not permitted by
applicable law, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the
relative benefits referred to in clause (i) above but also the relative fault of
the Company and the Remarketing Agent in connection with the statements or
omissions that resulted in such losses, claims, damages or liabilities, as well
as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative benefits received
by the Company and the Remarketing Agent shall be deemed to be in the same
proportion as the total net proceeds of the remarketing (before deducting
expenses) received by or for the account of the Company bear to the total fees
and commissions received by the Remarketing Agent in connection therewith. The
relative fault of the Company and the Remarketing Agent shall be determined by
reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement
of a material fact or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact
relates to information supplied by the Company or by the Remarketing Agent and
the parties' relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity
to correct or prevent such statement or omission.

     The Company and the Remarketing Agent agree that it would not be just and
equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 4 were determined by pro rata
allocation or by any other method of allocation that does not take account of
the equitable considerations referred to in the immediately preceding paragraph.
The amount paid or payable by an indemnified party as a result of the losses,
claims, damages and liabilities referred to in the immediately preceding
paragraph shall be deemed to include, subject to the limitations set forth
above, any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such indemnified party
in connection with investigating or defending any such action or claim.
Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 4, the Remarketing Agent shall
not be required to contribute any amount in excess of the aggregate remarketing
fees received by the Remarketing Agent hereunder. No person guilty of fraudulent
misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act)
shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such
fraudulent misrepresentation.

     The indemnity and contribution agreements contained in this Section 4 and
the representations and warranties of the Company shall remain operative and in
full force and effect regardless of (i) any termination of this Agreement, (ii)
any investigation made by or on behalf of any Remarketing Agent or any person
controlling any Remarketing Agent or by or on behalf of the Company, its
officers or directors or any other person controlling the Company and (iii) sale
and delivery of any of the Bonds.

     5. Remarketing Agent's Liabilities. The undertaking of the Remarketing
Agent to remarket any Bonds pursuant to the Indenture shall be on a "best
efforts" basis.

                                       -5-

<PAGE>

     6. Resignation or Removal of Remarketing Agent. The Remarketing Agent may
be removed at any time by the Company by giving notice to the Remarketing Agent,
the Issuer and the Trustee. The Remarketing Agent may at any time resign and be
discharged of the duties and obligations created by this Remarketing Agreement
by giving at least thirty (30) days' notice to the Company, the Issuer and the
Trustee; provided that the Remarketing Agent may cease to offer and sell the
Bonds with immediate effect if it determines, in its reasonable judgment, that
for any reason, including without limitation, (i) a pending or proposed change
in applicable tax laws or securities laws that would require registration under
the Securities Act in connection with the remarketing of the Bonds; (ii) a
material adverse change in the condition of the Company or the Credit Provider,
(iii) a banking moratorium, (iv) there shall have occurred any outbreak or
escalation of hostilities or any change in financial markets or any calamity or
crisis that, in the Remarketing Agent's judgment, is material and adverse, (v) a
down-rating of the Bonds, (vi) an imposition of material restrictions on the
Bonds or similar obligations, or (vii) a material misstatement or omission in
the Official Statement or the disclosure document referred to in Section 3
hereof, that it is not advisable to attempt to remarket the Bonds. The
provisions of Section 4 will continue in effect as to transactions prior to the
date of termination, and each party will pay the other any amounts owing at the
time of termination.

     7. Dealing in Securities by Remarketing Agent. The Remarketing Agent, in
its individual capacity, either as principal or agent, may buy, sell, own, hold
and deal in any of the Bonds, and may join in any action which any owner of
Bonds may be entitled to take with like effect as if it did not act in any
capacity hereunder. The Remarketing Agent, in its individual capacity, either as
principal or agent, may also engage in or be interested in any financial or
other transaction with the Company and may act as depository, trustee, or agent
for any committee or body of owners of Bonds or other obligations of the Company
as freely as if it did not act in any capacity hereunder.

     8. Intention of Parties. It is the express intention of the parties hereto
that no purchase, sale or transfer of any Bonds, as herein provided, shall
constitute or be construed to be the extinguishment of any Bond or the
indebtedness represented thereby or the reissuance of any Bond or the refunding
of any indebtedness represented thereby.

     9. Amendment. (a) The Company agrees not to consent to any amendment of the
Indenture provisions with respect to the Remarketing Agreement or the rights and
duties of the Remarketing Agent hereunder or thereunder without the prior
written consent of the Remarketing Agent (which shall not be unreasonably
withheld).

     (b) This Agreement may not be amended except by a writing signed by each of
the parties hereto; may not be assigned without the mutual consent of the
parties hereto; and will not confer any rights upon any other person or any
holders of Bonds in their capacities as such.

     10. Notices. Unless otherwise provided all notices, requests, demands and
formal actions hereunder shall be in writing and mailed, telegraphed or
delivered, as follows:

                      an Arizona limited liability company,

<PAGE>

                             GROUND LEASE AGREEMENT

          THIS GROUND LEASE AGREEMENT (this "Lease") is made to be effective as
of September 14,2005 (the "Effective Date"), between
ABITIBI-CONSOLIDATED SALES CORP., a Delaware corporation ("Landlord"), and
SNOWFLAKE WHITE MOUNTAIN POWER, LLC, an Arizona limited liability company
"Tenant").

RECITALS:

          A. Landlord is the fee owner of certain real property located in
Navajo, County Arizona, on which is located a paper mill commonly know as the
Snowflake Mill (the "Paper Mill"). Within the property on which the Paper Mill
is located is an approximately 6.82-acre parcel which is legally described in
Exhibit A attached hereto as "Parcel 1". Landlord is also the fee owner of an
approximately 100.8-acre parcel which is legally described in Exhibit A attached
hereto as "Parcel 2" and an approximately 11.43-acre parcel which is legally
described in Exhibit A attached hereto as "Parcel 3". Parcel 1, Parcel 2 and
Parcel 3 are collectively referred to as the "Real Property".

          B. Landlord desires to lease the Real Property to Tenant, and Tenant
desires to lease the Real Property from Landlord subject to the terms and
conditions of this Lease.

          THEREFORE, for good and valuable consideration, the receipt and
sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, and intending to be legally bound,
Landlord and Tenant agree as follows:

AGREEMENTS:

          1. Lease of Real Property. Landlord hereby leases to Tenant, and
Tenant hereby leases from Landlord, the Real Property and all easements,
appurtenances and rights related thereto as specifically set forth in this
Lease. Such lease is upon, and subject to, the terms, covenants and conditions
set forth below and each party covenants, as a material part of the
consideration for this Lease, to keep and perform their respective obligations
under this Lease.

          2. Lease Term.

               2.1 Primary Term. This Lease shall be for a term (the "Lease
Term") equal to the shorter of: (a) 25 years; or (b) the useful life of the
"Power Facility" as determined by Tenant. The Lease Term shall commence on the
date that is the earlier of: (i) January 1, 2007; or (ii) the date upon which
all necessary approvals, authorizations, permits and licenses including,
without limitation, a building permit (the "Permits"), have been issued to
Tenant to construct the Power Facility (the "Commencement Date"), and ending at
11:59 p.m., M.S.T., on the last day of the Lease Term, unless sooner
terminated as provided in this Lease; provided, however, that if the
Commencement Date is a day other than the first day of a calendar month, the
Lease Term shall be extended by the number of days remaining in such calendar
month. Tenant shall send written notice to Landlord specifying the date on which
the Permits have been received. If Tenant has not received the Permits by
January 1, 2007, then Tenant shall have the right to extend the Commencement
Date in 30 day increments upon notice to Landlord and the payment of $10,000 for
each such 30 day extension.

<PAGE>

               2.2 Early Termination. Tenant shall have the right to terminate
this Lease by notice to Landlord if the Power Facility is no longer able to
produce electricity for reasons outside Tenant's control (e.g., inability to
obtain biomass fuel at commercially reasonable prices and changes in applicable
laws). A termination by Tenant of this Lease under this Section 2.2 shall only
be effective upon: (a) Tenant giving Landlord at least 90 days' prior written
notice of such termination; and (b) Tenant providing Landlord with evidence
satisfactory to Landlord that all the Improvements (as defined in Section 8
below) and the Real Property are free and clear of all liens (except current
property taxes and assessments), including, without limitation, any Leasehold
Lien and any Mortgage (as both terms are defined in Section 28.3 below).

               2.3 Lease Year. As used in this Lease, "Lease Year" shall mean a
period of 12 consecutive calendar months during the Lease Term commencing on the
Commencement Date, except that: (a) if the Commencement Date is other than the
first day of a calendar month, the first Lease Year shall be extended to end on
and include the last day of the twelfth full calendar month following the
Commencement Date; and (b) the last Lease Year shall terminate on the date of
expiration or earlier termination of the Lease Term, as applicable.

               2.4 Extended Term. Tenant has the right to extend the Primary
Term for one additional 25 year term (the "Extended Term") following expiration
of the Primary Term. If Tenant desires an extension, Tenant shall exercise such
right by: (a) giving notice to Landlord at least 6 months immediately prior to
the expiration of the Primary Term; and (b) paying $1,000,000 (as adjusted from
the Effective Date based on the CPI as defined in this Section 2.4) as an
extension fee on or before the first day of the Extended Term. During the
Extended Term, all terms and provisions of this Lease shall remain in full force
and effect, except that any ongoing monetary obligations that Tenant has under
this Lease shall be adjusted based on the Consumer Price Index ("CPI"), which
shall be the United States Department of Labor, Bureau of Labor Statistics
Consumer Price Index for all items (CPI-U), West Region (1982 - 1984 = 100), or
such other CPI as the parties agree is more suitable, unless the Lease already
specifies a different basis for adjustment. As used in this Lease, "Lease Term"
shall mean the Primary Term and the Extended Term, if applicable.

          3. Use; Compliance with Laws.

               3.1 Use. Tenant shall use Parcel 1 of Real Property only for the
construction and operation of the Power Facility, Parcel 2 of the Real Property
only for the construction and operation of the Sawmill Facility and Parcel 3 of
the Real Property only for the construction and operation of the Storage
Facility. Tenant shall observe and comply with all applicable laws, rules,
regulations, codes, judgments, orders, permits, licenses and approvals, and the
applicable requirements of all governmental agencies having jurisdiction, and
shall obtain all licenses, permits and approvals necessary for Tenant's use of
the Real Property.

               3.2 Environmental Matters. Tenant represents and warrants that it
will at all times during and after the Lease Term comply with Environmental Laws
on and with respect to the Real Property and the Power Facility. Without
limiting the generality of the foregoing, neither Tenant nor any Tenant Party
shall use, handle, store or dispose of any Regulated Substances in, on, under,
at or about the Real Property, except in the ordinary cause of operating,
maintaining or repairing the Power Facility in the event a new operator is
engaged by Tenant pursuant to the Operations Provisions. Tenant shall promptly
notify Landlord of any inquiry, test, investigation or enforcement proceeding by
or against Tenant or Landlord or the Real Property concerning any Environmental
Law. Tenant shall be solely responsible for and shall indemnify, defend and hold
Landlord harmless from and against any and all claims, judgments, suits, causes
of action, damages, penalties, fines, liabilities, losses and expenses
(including, without limitation, investigation and clean-up costs, attorneys'

<PAGE>

Lease Term as a result of the breach of any of the obligations and covenants set
forth in this Section 3.2 and/or any presence, spill, discharge, release,
threatened release, clean-up or contamination of or by any Regulated Substance
in, on, at, under, about or from the Real Property directly or indirectly
arising from the activities of Tenant or any Tenant Party during the Lease Term
that violate any Environmental Laws.

          4. Rent, Reimbursements and Other Consideration.

               4.1. Rent. Except as provided in Sections 4.3 and 9 below, no
monetary rent of any kind shall be payable under this Lease including, without
limitation, annual rent, percentage rent or additional rent.

               4.2 Substation Reimbursement. Within 30 days following the
completion of construction of the Power Facility and the issuance of the
certificate of occupancy for the Power Facility by the appropriate governmental
authorities, if such certificate is required, but in any event no later than
January 1,2008, Tenant shall make a one-time payment of $500,000 to Landlord as
Tenant's share of the cost of constructing the "Substation". So long as Landlord
operates the Paper Mill, Landlord (i) hereby grants Tenant the right to access
and utilize the electric lines and equipment at the Substation to the extent
necessary to support operation of the Power Facility and (ii) shall make
commercially reasonable efforts to keep the Substation available to Tenant. If
Landlord needs the Substation capacity for its own purposes, Landlord shall
notify Tenant at least 180 days prior to the date upon which Tenant will no
longer be entitled to use the Substation. If Landlord's requirement for use of
the Substation is permanent and such notice is given during the first 10 years
of the Lease Term, Landlord shall return to Tenant with such notice a prorated
share of the $500,000 payment referred to above in this Section. Such share
shall be equal to $50,000 for each full year remaining in the 10-year period.
(For example, if Landlord gives Tenant such notice 4 1/2 years after the
beginning of the Lease Term, Landlord shall return to Tenant the sum of
$250,000.) Landlord shall permit Tenant, if Tenant desires, to upgrade the
Substation to handle Tenant's requirements, at Tenant's cost and expense.
Landlord shall continue to be responsible for the maintenance, repair and
operation of the Substation.

               4.3 Paper Sludge Supply and Removal. Landlord currently operates
the Paper Mill on property that is adjacent to the Real Property. For so long as
the Paper Mill remains open and operating, Landlord shall allow Tenant to obtain
without cost or charge as much of the paper sludge produced by the Paper Mill as
Tenant can use at the Power Facility. Landlord shall supply paper sludge for at
least 10 years from the date the Power Facility begins producing power (the
"Sludge Non-Competition Period"). Tenant will use commercially reasonably
efforts to utilize the paper sludge as a fuel source for the Power Facility, but
Tenant does not guarantee that the paper sludge will be a viable fuel source for
the Power Facility. At no cost to Tenant, Landlord shall process the sludge to
reduce the moisture content of such sludge to the lowest practical moisture
content (in no event greater than approximately 50% moisture content) and shall
be responsible for all waste water treatment in connection with the production
and processing of such sludge. At no cost to Landlord, Tenant shall install
equipment to transport the paper sludge from the wastewater treatment plant to
the Power Facility, and shall add screw presses or other equipment necessary to
allow Landlord to reduce the moisture content of the sludge. Tenant shall
reimburse Landlord as an "Operational Cost" under the "Operations Provisions"
the cost of transporting all such processed sludge to the Power Facility. In the
event Tenant wishes to terminate its use of any or all of the paper sludge at
the Power Facility, Tenant shall provide Landlord at least 30 days advance
written notice of such termination. Any portion of paper sludge produced at the
Paper Mill that is not taken by Tenant after the Sludge Non-Competition Period,
including any sludge that Tenant discontinues using, may be sold or otherwise
conveyed by Landlord to any third party; provided, however, that if Landlord
desires to sell, transfer or convey any paper sludge to a third party (other
than a transporter for purposes of disposal of the paper sludge in a landfill)
after the Sludge Non-Competition Period, Landlord shall first provide Tenant
with 60 days' notice of such desire and Tenant shall have the right to take
possession and ownership of all the paper sludge produced by the Paper Mill. In
the event Tenant fails to utilize at least 75% of the paper sludge (at current
levels as of the Effective Date) produced at the Paper Mill within two (2) years
after the Commencement Date, or thereafter fails to maintain

                                        4

<PAGE>

such minimum usage, Tenant shall pay an annual rent of $400,000 in equal monthly
installments. Any rent being paid under this Section 4.3 shall cease on the date
that the Paper Mill's production of paper sludge falls below 25% of current
levels (as of the Effective Date). Landlord shall notify Tenant at least 90 days
prior to closing the Paper Mill or ceasing production or processing of paper
sludge. For purposes of this Section 4.3. current levels of paper sludge
production shall refer to sludge production for the six-month period immediately
preceding the Effective Date.

               4.4 Storage Facility and Sawmill Facility. Use of the Storage
Facility and Sawmill Facility shall be limited to purposes supporting operation
of the Power Facility. Upon termination of the Lease, Tenant shall clear the
areas of debris and materials. Tenant shall abide by fire protection standards
imposed by the insurance carrier used by Landlord in its use of the Sawmill
Facility and Storage Facility.

               4.5 Parasitic Power Load. Landlord agrees to make available power
produced at the Paper Mill to Tenant for the internal operating needs of the
Power Facility pursuant to this Section 4.5. Such power shall be made available
for five cents ($0.05) per kilowatt hour to the extent power produced by
Landlord is not needed for operation of the Paper Mill, as determined in
Landlord's sole discretion. Landlord does not guarantee that electricity will be
available to Tenant under this Section. The rate charged Tenant for such power
shall be adjusted on each anniversary of the Commencement Date by the same
percentage change, if any, as Landlord pays for power purchased from the public
utility supplying power to the Paper Mill (as measured in (cent)/kwhr). Tenant
anticipates that the Power Facility will require between 1.0 and 1.5 megawatts
("MW") of electricity to operate. Landlord shall provide this power at 2300
volts and 480 volts based on the needs and requirements of the machinery and
equipment utilized at the Power Facility.

               4.6 Utilities. Landlord shall provide all utilities necessary to
operate the Power Facility so long as the Paper Mill is operating. Electricity
shall be provided as described in Section 4.5 above. Natural gas will be
provided as available at the metered cost. Water, boiler feedwater, compressed
air, sewage and waste water treatment, solid waste removal and disposal, and
removal of the "Facility Waste" will be provided to Tenant for a fixed rate of
$25,000 per year. The rate charged Tenant for such services shall be adjusted on
each anniversary of the Commencement Date by the same percentage change as
occurs in the CPL

               4.7 Ash and Waste Disposal. Landlord shall take possession of and
dispose of all Facility Waste in a location other than on the Real Property in
accordance with applicable law, including, without limitation, all
"Environmental Laws". Tenant shall reimburse Landlord, as an Operational Cost
under the Operation Provisions, all transportation costs incurred in removing
and disposing of the Facility Waste and all disposal costs for Facility Waste
disposed of offsite of the Paper Mill, but shall not otherwise have any
financial responsibility with respect to the Facility Waste. Except as they
relate to Tenant's obligations under this Section 4.7, any and all claims,
demands, notices, damages, costs, fees, judgments, suits, causes of action,
losses, liabilities and expenses, including attorneys' fees and court costs,
that result from or relate to the Facility Waste shall be considered Excluded
Claims and shall be covered under Landlord's indemnification obligations set
forth in Section 12.3.

               4.8 Tenant's Ability to Purchase the Real Property. If Landlord
ceases operations at the Paper Mill, Tenant is hereby granted an option to
purchase the Real Property at fair market value with escrow and purchase terms
that are customary for vacant land sales in Navajo county at the time of such
purchase (such terms to be drawn from the then-current form of vacant land sale
purchase contract promulgated by the Arizona Realtors Association).

          5. Representations and Warranties. Landlord represents and warrants to
Tenant and covenants that:

Days before the due date. All taxes and assessments becoming due and payable in

          7. Engagement of Landlord. Tenant hereby engages Landlord, and
Landlord hereby accepts Tenant's engagement, to operate the Power Facility under
the terms and conditions set forth in the Operations Provisions attached hereto
as Addendum 1.

          8. Tenant Improvements. Tenant, at its sole expense and after
consultation with Landlord, shall construct, furnish and make such leasehold
improvements to the Real Property as are necessary for Tenant's use of the Real
Property including, without limitation, the Power Facility (collectively, the
"Improvements"). Title to all Improvements shall be vested in the Tenant during
the Lease Term. After the Power Facility has been placed in operation, Tenant
may construct additional Improvements only after receiving written approval from
Landlord. No approval is needed from Landlord for modifications, repairs,
changes, renovation, restoration and minor construction in the ordinary course
of business at the Power Facility. Tenant shall construct the Improvements in
compliance with all applicable laws, codes, rules and ordinances and shall
obtain all necessary permits and approvals for such construction, and shall
maintain the Improvements in good condition, normal wear and tear excepted.

          9. Disposition of Tenant's Property upon Termination. Upon the
expiration of the Lease Term or its sooner termination, Landlord shall have the
option to purchase the Improvements and all other trade fixtures and personal
property of Tenant required to run the Power Facility and located at the Power
Facility (collectively, "Tenant's Property") at fair market value, or if
Tenant's Lender (as defined in Section 28.3 below) has assumed the Lease and
taken title to the Improvements, then at the payoff amount of the Mortgage (as
defined in Section 28.3 below). Not later than 30 days after the expiration of
the Lease Term or the earlier termination of the Lease, Landlord may notify
Tenant that Landlord elects to purchase Tenant's Property. If Landlord's notice
is not given during this 30-day period, then Landlord's option to purchase
Tenant's Property shall lapse. If Landlord does not elect to purchase Tenant's
Property, Tenant shall have three years to remove Tenant's Property. During this
three-year period, rent shall be paid in the amount of $25,000 per 12-month
period starting on the date of termination of the Lease and ending on the date
on which all of Tenant's Property has been removed. Landlord understands and
agrees that Tenant's Property is not readily marketable and requires Tenant to
locate a suitable buyer, which process could take up to three years. If Landlord
elects to purchase Tenant's Property and Landlord and Tenant cannot agree on the
fair market value, such

                                        8

<PAGE>

value shall be determined by a Person with at least five years experience in
appraising similar property ("Equipment Appraiser"). If Landlord and Tenant
cannot agree on a single Equipment Appraiser, the following method shall be used
to determine the fair market value of Tenant's Property. Each party, within 15
days after request by any party, shall appoint one Equipment Appraiser to
represent it and if the two appraisers so appointed are unable to agree between
themselves upon the fair market value within 15 days after being appointed, they
in turn shall appoint a third Equipment Appraiser. The mutual agreement of two
of the three Equipment Appraisers shall determine the fair market value. If two
of the three Equipment Appraisers cannot agree on the fair market value, it
shall be the average of the fair market values as determined by each of the
three Equipment Appraisers. If either Landlord or Tenant fails to appoint an
Equipment Appraiser, the duly appointed Equipment Appraiser shall determine the
fair market value. If a third Equipment Appraiser is required but the original
two appraisers fail to agree upon a third appraiser, the two appraisers shall
each propose a list of three Equipment Appraisers and send such list to the
other appraiser. The party receiving such proposed list of appraisers shall have
five business days from the receipt of the list to strike two names from the
list proposed by the other party's appraiser and to notify the other party of
the names stricken. If a party fails to timely strike its allowable number of
names, then that party will be deemed to have only stricken the number of names
it has timely stricken. If more than two names are stricken or if a party fails
to timely strike any names, then that party will be deemed to have not stricken
any names. If, after striking such names, only one unstricken name appears on
the list(s), such unstricken appraiser shall be the additional Equipment
Appraiser. If more than one unstricken name appears on the list(s), the
previously appointed appraiser(s) shall randomly select the additional appraiser
from such unstricken appraisers.

          10. Maintenance and Repair. Landlord shall maintain and repair
Tenant's Property located on Parcel 1 in a good state of repair and in a
reasonable sanitary condition. Tenant shall reimburse Landlord for such costs as
an Operational Cost under the Operations Provisions.

          11. Liens. Except as allowed under Section 28.2 below, Tenant shall
not permit any mechanic's, materialmen's or other liens to be filed against all
or any part of the Real Property, nor against Tenant's leasehold interest in the
Real Property, for any reason, including in connection with any repairs,
alterations, improvements or other work contracted for or undertaken by Tenant.
If any such lien is filed, Tenant shall discharge or bond over the lien within
twenty (20) days of such filing, and Tenant shall indemnify and hold Landlord
harmless from all costs, expenses, claims or liability (including reasonable
attorney's fees) arising from such lien.

          12. Indemnification and Exculpation.

               12.1 Tenant's Indemnification of Landlord. Tenant shall be liable
for, and shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless Landlord and Landlord's
partners, employees, agents, successors and assigns (collectively, "Landlord
Indemnified Parties") from and against, any and all claims, damages, judgments,
suits, causes of action, losses, liabilities and expenses, including attorneys'
fees and court costs, for injury or death of persons or physical loss of or
damage to property claimed or asserted by a Person not a party to this Lease
("Third Person") (collectively, "Tenant Indemnified Claims"), arising or
resulting from: (a) the use of the Real Property by Tenant or any of Tenant's
agents, employees or contractors (individually, "Tenant Party"; collectively,
"Tenant Parties"); or (b) any other activity, work or thing done, permitted or
suffered by Tenant or any Tenant Parties, in, on or about the Real Property;
and/or (c) any default by Tenant of any obligations on Tenant's part to be
performed under the terms of this Lease. Tenant Indemnified Claims shall not
include any claims, demands, notices, damages, costs, fees, judgments, suits,
causes of action, losses, liabilities and expenses, including attorneys' fees
and court costs that result from or relate to Landlord's operation of the Power
Facility under the Operations Provisions or any matters covered by the
indemnification provisions contained therein (collectively, "Excluded Claims").
The term "Tenant Party" or "Tenant Parties" shall not include any Landlord
Indemnified Parties.

indemnification in Section 12.1 above are not intended to and shall not relieve
any insurance carrier of its obligations under policies required to be carried
by Landlord or Tenant, respectively, pursuant to the provisions of this Lease
for actions or events that occur during the Lease Term.

               12.3 Landlord's Indemnification of Tenant. Landlord shall be
liable for, and shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless Tenant Parties from
and against any and all claims, damages, judgments, suits, causes of action,
losses, liabilities and expenses, including attorneys' fees and court costs, for
injury or death of persons or physical loss of or damage to property claimed or
asserted by a Third Person (collectively, "Landlord Indemnified Claims") arising
or resulting from: (a) the use of the Real Property by Landlord or any of
Landlord's agents, employees or contractors (collectively, "Landlord Parties");
(b) any other activity, work or thing done by Landlord or any Landlord Parties,
in, on or about the Real Property; and/or (c) any default by Landlord of any
obligations on Landlord's part to be performed under the terms of this Lease.

               12.4 No Release of Insurers. Landlord's covenants, agreements and
indemnification in Section 12.3 above are not intended to and shall not relieve
any insurance carrier of its obligations under policies required to be carried
by Landlord or Tenant, respectively, pursuant to the provisions of this Lease
for actions or events that occur during the Lease Term.

               12.5 Indemnification Procedure. Promptly after a party hereto
(hereinafter the "Indemnified Party") has received notice of or has knowledge of
any claim by a Third Person or the commencement of any action or proceeding by a
Third Person, the Indemnified Party shall, as a condition precedent to a claim
with respect thereto being made against any party obligated to provide
indemnification pursuant to this Lease (hereinafter the "Indemnifying Party"),
give the Indemnifying Party written notice of such claim or the commencement of
such action or proceeding. The notice shall state the nature and the basis of
such claim and a reasonable estimate of the amount thereof. The Indemnifying
Party, after receipt of the notice, shall defend and settle, at its own expense
and by its own counsel, each such matter so long as the Indemnifying Party
pursues the same diligently and in good faith. Notwithstanding the foregoing,
the Indemnified Party shall have the right to participate in any matter through
counsel of its own choosing at its own expense. Additionally, if the
Indemnifying Party fails diligently to defend any such matter to which the
Indemnified Party is entitled to indemnification hereunder, the Indemnified
Party may undertake such defense through counsel of its choice and at the
Indemnifying Party's expense. Under no circumstances shall the Indemnified Party
settle any Third Person claim without the written consent of the Indemnifying
Party, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed.

          13. Tenant's Insurance. Tenant shall obtain and maintain the following
insurance during the Term (while Landlord is operating the Power Facility under
the Operations Provisions, Landlord shall be responsible to procure all such
insurance on behalf of Tenant and at Tenant's expense):

               13.1 Types of Insurance. On or before the earlier of the
Commencement Date or the date Tenant commences or causes to be commenced any
work on the Real Property, and continuing during the entire Lease Term, Tenant
shall obtain and keep in full force and effect, the following insurance:

                    13.1.1 All Risk insurance, including fire and extended
coverage and sprinkler leakage, on the improvements and all other property of
every description and kind located on the Real Property (whether owned by
Landlord or Tenant), or for which Tenant is legally liable or installed by or on
behalf of Tenant in an amount not less than the full replacement cost thereof as
determined by Tenant. Such insurance shall also apply to damage to the Paper
Mill resulting from or arising out of incidents occurring on the Real Property.

                                       10

                    13.1.2 Commercial general liability insurance coverage,
including personal injury, bodily injury (including wrongful death), broad form
property damage, operations hazard, owner's protective coverage, contractual
liability (including Tenant's indemnification obligations under this Lease,
including Section 12 above), products and completed operations liability, and
owned/non-owned auto liability, with initial limits as follows: general
aggregate-not less than $2,000,000.00, and per occurrence-not less than
$2,000,000.00.

Tenant shall provide current certificates of such insurance to Landlord
throughout the Term, and copies of policies within ten Business Days after
receipt of Landlord's written request.

          14. Requirements. Each policy required to be obtained by Tenant under
this Lease shall: (a) be issued by insurers authorized to do business in the
State of Arizona and reasonably acceptable to Landlord; (b) name Tenant and
Landlord as named insureds (c) provide that the insurer shall notify Landlord in
writing not less than 30 days prior to any material change, reduction in
coverage, cancellation or other termination thereof; (c) have a deductible of
not more than $50,000.00, (d) be primary with respect to any similar insurance
carried by Landlord, (e) contain a waiver of subrogation or similar provision.

          15. Landlord's Insurance. Landlord may, at its option, obtain such
liability and casualty insurance relating to the Real Property as Landlord deems
desirable.

          16. Damage or Destruction. If the Real Property is damaged by fire or
other casualty, Tenant shall be responsible to commence and proceed diligently
with the work of repair, reconstruction and restoration, and this Lease shall
continue in full force and effect. Landlord and Tenant shall each have the right
to terminate this Lease if any damage to the Real Property occurs during the
last 12 months of the Lease Term. In the event of such termination, Tenant shall
be subject to the provisions of Section 9 relating to the removal of Tenant's
Property.

          17. Eminent Domain.

               17.1 Substantial Taking. Subject to the provisions of Section
17.4 below, in case the whole of the Real Property, or such part thereof as
shall prevent the operation of the Power Facility as reasonably determined by
Tenant, shall be taken for any public or quasi-public purpose by any lawful
power or authority by exercise of the right of appropriation, condemnation or
eminent domain, or sold to prevent or in lieu of such taking, this Lease shall
terminate effective as of the date possession is required to be surrendered to
said authority.

               17.2 Partial Taking. In the event of a taking of a portion of the
Real Property that does not prevent the operation of the Power Facility as
reasonably determined by Tenant, then, except as otherwise provided in the
immediately following sentence, neither party shall have the right to terminate
this Lease, and Tenant shall thereafter proceed to make a functional unit of the
remaining portion of the Real Property (and Landlord shall make available such
portion of the proceeds received by Landlord from the condemning authority as is
attributable to the taking of any portion of the Improvements). Proceeds
received by Landlord for the value of the Power Facility or Tenant's business
shall belong to Tenant.

               17.3 Condemnation Award. Subject to the provisions of Section
17.4 below, in connection with any taking of the Real Property or any portion
thereof, Tenant shall not be entitled to receive any portion of any award that
may be made or given in such taking or condemnation or any payment made in lieu
or anticipation of any such taking or condemnation with respect to Real
Property. Tenant shall be entitled to recover: (a) any compensation as may be
separately awarded or recoverable by Tenant for Tenant's relocation expenses and
for any loss of goodwill; and (b) the value of the Improvements.

                                       11

<PAGE>

               17.4 Temporary Taking. In the event of a taking of the Real
Property or any part thereof for temporary use: (a) this Lease shall be and
remain unaffected thereby; and (b) Tenant shall be entitled to receive for
itself such portion or portions of any award made for such use with respect to
the period of the taking that is within the Lease Term. For purpose of this
Section 17.4. a temporary taking shall be defined as a taking for a period of
120 days or less.

          18. Tenant's Default and Landlord's Remedies.

               18.1 Tenant's Default. The occurrence of any one or more of the
following events shall constitute a default under this Lease by Tenant:

                    18.1.1 The failure by Tenant to observe or perform any of
the covenants or provisions of this Lease to be observed or performed by Tenant,
where such failure shall continue for a period of 30 days after written notice
thereof from Landlord to Tenant; provided, however, that, if the nature of
Tenant's default is such that more than 30 days are reasonably required for its
cure, then Tenant shall not be deemed to be in default if Tenant shall commence
such cure within such 30-day period and thereafter diligently prosecute such
cure to completion. Any failure by Tenant to observe or perform any of its
covenants or provisions of this Lease that are the responsibility or obligation
of the Landlord under the Operations Provisions shall not be the basis for a
default under this Section 18.1.2 so long as the Operations Provisions are in
effect; and

                    18.1.2 (i) The making by Tenant of any general assignment
for the benefit of creditors; (ii) the filing by or against Tenant of a petition
to have Tenant adjudged a bankrupt or a petition for reorganization or
arrangement under any law relating to bankruptcy (unless, in the case of a
petition filed against the Tenant, the same is dismissed within 60 days); (iii)
the appointment of a trustee or receiver to take possession of substantially all
of Tenant's assets located at the Real Property or of Tenant's interest in this
Lease, if possession is not restored to Tenant within 60 days; or (iv) the
attachment, execution or other judicial seizure of substantially all of Tenant's
assets located at the Real Property or of Tenant's interest in this Lease if
such seizure is not discharged within 60 days.

               18.2 Landlord's Remedies; Termination. In the event of any such
default by Tenant, Landlord shall have the immediate right to terminate this
Lease and all rights of Tenant hereunder and recover any damages necessary to
compensate Landlord for all actual damages caused by Tenant's failure to perform
its obligations under this Lease.

               18.3 Landlord's Remedies; Re-Entry Rights. In the event of any
such default by Tenant, Landlord shall also have the right, with or without
terminating this Lease, to re-enter the Real Property and remove all persons
from the Real Property and take possession of all property located thereon. No
re-entry or taking possession of the Real Property by Landlord pursuant to this
Section 18.3, and no acceptance of surrender of the Real Property or other
action on Landlord's part, shall be construed as an election to terminate this
Lease unless a written notice of such intention be given to Tenant or unless the
termination thereof be decreed by a court of competent jurisdiction.

               18.4 Landlord's Remedies: Continuation of Lease. In the event of
any such default by Tenant, Landlord shall have the right to continue this
Lease in full force and effect, whether or not Tenant shall have abandoned the
Real Property. In the event Landlord elects to continue this Lease in full force
and effect pursuant to this Section 18.4, then Landlord shall be entitled to
enforce all of its rights and remedies under this Lease. Landlord's election not
to terminate this Lease pursuant to this Section 18.4 or pursuant to any other
provision of this Lease, at law or in equity, shall not preclude Landlord from
subsequently electing to terminate this Lease or pursuing any of its other
remedies. Landlord shall have the right to relet the Real Property or any
portion thereof for such term or terms (which

                                       12

<PAGE>

may extend beyond the Lease Term) and at such rental and on such other terms and
conditions as Landlord, in its sole discretion, may deem advisable. Landlord
shall also have the right to make such alteration and repairs to the Real
Property as Landlord may deem advisable, in its sole discretion.

               18.5 Rights and Remedies Cumulative. All rights, options and
remedies of Landlord contained in this Section 18 and elsewhere in this Lease
(including Section 22 below) shall be construed and held to be cumulative, and
no one of them shall be exclusive of the other. Landlord shall have the right to
pursue anyone or all of such remedies or any other remedy or relief that may be
provided by law or in equity, whether or not stated in this Lease. Nothing in
this Section 18 shall be deemed to limit or otherwise affect Tenant's
indemnification of Landlord pursuant to any provision of this Lease.

               18.6 Performance by Landlord. If Tenant fails to make any payment
or perform any act required hereunder to be made or performed by Tenant, and
provided Landlord has given Tenant thirty (30) days written notice of its intent
to do so and Tenant has failed during said period to make such payment or
perform the act required to be performed by Tenant, then Landlord may, but shall
be under no obligation, to make such payment or perform such act with the same
effect as if made or performed by Tenant. Notwithstanding the immediately
preceding sentence, Landlord may proceed immediately in the event of an
emergency without any notice to Tenant other than bona fide attempts to contact
Tenant by telephone as soon as reasonably possible under the circumstances.
Entry by Landlord upon the Real Property for such purpose shall not waive or
release Tenant from any obligation or default hereunder. Tenant shall reimburse
Landlord for all sums so paid by Landlord and all costs and expenses incurred by
Landlord in connection with Landlord's payment or performance under this
Section, and no such payment or performance by Landlord pursuant hereto, shall
be deemed to suspend or delay the payment of any amount of money or charge at
the time the same becomes due or payable, nor limit any right of Landlord or
relieve Tenant from any default hereunder.

          19. Landlord's Default. Subject to the Operations Provisions, Landlord
shall not be in default in the performance of any obligation required to be
performed by Landlord under this Lease unless Landlord has failed to perform
such obligation within 30 days after the receipt of written notice from Tenant
specifying in detail Landlord's failure to perform; provided however, that if
the nature of Landlord's obligation is such that more than 30 days are required
for its performance, then Landlord shall not be deemed in default if it
commences such performance within such 30-day period and thereafter diligently
pursues the same to completion. Upon any such uncured default by Landlord,
Tenant may exercise any of its rights provided in law or at equity.

          20. Estoppel Certificate. Within 20 days following receipt of a
written request from the other party or its lender or mortgagee, a party shall
execute and deliver to the other party or its lender or mortgagee an estoppel
certificate certifying: (a) the Commencement Date of this Lease; (b) that this
Lease is unmodified and in full force and effect (or, if modified, that this
Lease is in full force and effect as modified, and stating the date and nature
of such modifications); (c) the date to which any sums payable under this Lease
have been paid; (d) that there are not, to the best of the certifying party's
knowledge, any defaults under this Lease by either Landlord or Tenant, except as
specified in such certificate; and (e) such other matters as are reasonably
requested. Any such estoppel certificate delivered pursuant to this Section 20
may be relied upon by any mortgagee, deed of trust beneficiary, purchaser or
prospective purchaser of the Real Property or the Power Facility, as well as
their assignees. The failure to deliver such estoppel certificate within such
time shall be conclusive upon the certifying party that: (a) this Lease is in
full force and effect without modification, except as may be represented by the
other party; and (b) there are no uncured defaults under the Lease.

          21. Default Interest. If any amount payable under this Lease is not
paid by the date when due, it shall bear interest at the lesser of the "prime
rate" plus 4% or the maximum rate allowed by law in the State of Arizona

                                       13

<PAGE>

(the "Default Rate") from the date due until paid. As used herein, "prime rate"
means the per annum rate of interest from time to time announced by Wells Fargo
Bank, or any successor bank, as its prime interest rate.

          22. Assignment and Subletting. Except as set forth in the Operations
Provisions and except as permitted under a Mortgage as define in Section 28.3.1,
Tenant shall not, without the prior written consent of Landlord, which consent
shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed (and in no event
shall Landlord's response be given more than 60 days from the date of the
Tenant's written request for consent), assign this Lease or any interest herein,
sublet the Real Property or any part thereof, otherwise transfer Tenant's
interest in the Real Property or this Lease, or permit the use or occupancy of
the Real Property by any party other than Tenant (collectively, a "Transfer").
Landlord's failure to respond to Tenant's request for consent within such 60 day
period shall be deemed a disapproval of the Transfer. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, Tenant may consummate a Transfer without the consent of the Landlord
to a corporate affiliate of Tenant with at least $25,000,000 net worth and with
substantial experience in owning or operating power generation facilities
similar to the Power Facility; provided however, that Tenant may not transfer
its interest to a Person engaged in pulp and paper operations or to a public
service corporation. Any attempted transfer in violation of this Section 22
shall be voidable at Landlord's election. A Transfer approved by Landlord or
otherwise allowable hereunder shall release Tenant of Tenant's obligations under
this Lease. For purposes of this Section 22. a "Transfer" shall include, but
shall not be limited to, the following:

     (1)  If Tenant is a partnership, (i) a withdrawal or change, voluntary,
          involuntary, or by operation of law, of any partner owning 49% or more
          of the partnership, (ii) the dissolution of the partnership, (iii) the
          sale or other transfer of 49% or more of the partnership interests, or
          (iv) the sale or other transfer of 49% or more of the value of the
          assets of the partnership.

     (2)  If Tenant is a corporation, (i) any dissolution, merger,
          consolidation, or other reorganization of the corporation, (ii) the
          sale or other transfer of 49% or more of the capital stock of the
          corporation, or (iii) the sale of 49% or more of the value of the
          assets of the corporation.

     (3)  If Tenant is a limited liability company, (i) a withdrawal or change,
          voluntary, involuntary, or by operation of law, of any member owning
          49% or more of the limited liability company, (ii) the dissolution of
          the limited liability company, (iii) the sale or other transfer of 49%
          or more of the membership interests, (iv) the sale or other transfer
          of 49% or more of the value of assets of the limited liability
          company, or the merger, consolidation of other reorganization of the
          limited liability company.

     (4)  The entering into of any operating agreement, consulting agreement or
          other arrangement, the effect of which is to shift from Tenant to a
          third party (i) substantial operating control of the Real Property or
          Tenant's operations thereon or (ii) substantial economic benefit
          arising from the Real Property or Tenant's operations thereon.

          23. Entry by Landlord. Landlord and its employees and agents shall at
all times have the right to enter the Real Property to inspect the same, and/or
to perform any act Landlord is required or allowed to perform under any
provision of this Lease or the Operations Provisions, all without being deemed
guilty of or liable for any breach of Landlord's covenant of quiet enjoyment or
any eviction of Tenant. In exercising such entry rights, Landlord shall endeavor
to minimize, as reasonably practicable, the interference with Tenant's business.

          24. Transfer of Landlord's Interest. Landlord shall be entitled to
sell, transfer, assign and convey all or any portion of its title and interest
in the Real Property and/or this Lease (collectively, a "Landlord Transfer")
without the consent of Tenant; provided, however, that no Landlord Transfer
shall be effective until the Landlord

                                       14

<PAGE>

provides notice to Tenant of such Landlord Transfer together with a copy of the
written assignment and assumption of this Lease by the transferee under such
Landlord Transfer. A transfer of Landlord's responsibilities under the Lease
shall release Landlord from all liability arising under the Lease on and after
the transfer. Landlord's responsibilities under the Operations Provisions are
transferable; provided, however that prior to any such transfer, Landlord shall
notify Tenant and confirm that the transferee has the ability and resources to
fulfill the Operations Provisions, and further provided that the transferee
execute a written assumption of the Operations Provisions. No such transfer
shall be valid until Tenant receives a fully executed copy of such written
assumption providing contact information as to the transferee and otherwise
acceptable to Tenant in its reasonable discretion. A transfer of Landlord's
responsibilities under the Operations Provisions shall release Landlord of
Landlord's obligations under the Operations Provisions.

          25. Quiet Enjoyment. Landlord covenants and agrees with Tenant that,
upon Tenant performing all of the covenants and provisions on Tenant's part to
be observed and performed under this Lease, Tenant shall and may peaceably and
quietly have, hold and enjoy the Real Property in accordance with and subject to
the terms and conditions of this Lease.

          26. Unavoidable Delay; Extension of Time of Performance. In addition
to specific provisions of this Lease, performance by any party hereunder shall
not be deemed to be in default where delays or defaults are due to war;
terrorist attacks at home or abroad; insurrection; strikes; lock-outs; riots;
floods; earthquakes; fires; casualties; acts of God; acts of the public enemy or
terrorists; epidemics; quarantine restrictions; freight embargoes; lack of
transportation; governmental restrictions or priority; unusually severe weather;
inability (when either party is faultless) of any contractor, subcontractor or
supplier; acts of the other party. An extension of time for any such cause shall
only be for the period of enforced delay, which period shall commence to run
from the time of the commencement of the cause. If, however, notice by the party
claiming such extension is sent to the other parties more than 30 days after the
commencement of the cause, the period shall commence to run only 30 days prior
to the giving of such notice. Times of performance under this Lease may also be
extended in writing by the parties hereto.

          27. Grants of Easements. Landlord covenants and agrees that it will,
from time to time, join with Tenant in the grant to governmental entities and
public utility companies of easements or rights of way on the Real Property for
utility lines and public streets, walks, alleys and access ways to the extent
such may be reasonably requested and reasonably required for the implementation
of the development of the Power Facility and other Improvements on the Real
Property. Landlord represents and warrants that the Real Property currently has
access to a public roadway.

          28. Subordination and Lender Provisions.

               28.1 Subordination of Tenant's Interest. At the election of
Landlord or any mortgagee of a mortgage or a beneficiary of a deed of trust now
or hereafter encumbering all or any portion of the Real Property, this Lease
shall be subject and subordinate at all times to the lien of such mortgages and
deeds of trust (as well as to any advances made thereunder and to all renewals,
replacements, modifications and extensions thereof). As a condition precedent to
the effectiveness of any such subordination of this Lease to the lien of any
future mortgages or deeds of trust, Landlord shall provide to Tenant a
commercially reasonable subordination, non-disturbance and attornment agreement
in favor of Tenant executed by such future mortgagee or deed of trust
beneficiary, as the case may be, which shall provide that Tenant's quiet
possession of the Real Property shall not be disturbed on account of such
subordination so long as Tenant is not in default under any provisions of this
Lease and agrees pursuant to the terms thereof to attorn to such mortgagee or
beneficiary and any future owner of the Real Property.

               28.2 Encumbrance of Tenant's Interest. Tenant may encumber its
leasehold interest in the Real Property (the "Leasehold Lien") in the amount of
the cost of the Improvements to be constructed on the Real

                                       15

<PAGE>

Property by Tenant. Tenant shall obtain Landlord's prior written approval of
the Leasehold Lien documents, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld,
conditioned or delayed. Landlord's failure to respond to Tenant's request for
approval within 30 days following receipt of such request shall be deemed an
approval of the Leasehold Lien documents. Such Leasehold Lien documents shall
allow Landlord, at its option, to assume the loan and make the loan payments if
Tenant does not make such payments. Tenant's failure to cure any default under
the Leasehold Lien loan documents following expiration of all notice and cure
provisions contained therein shall be a default under this Lease.

               28.3 Tenant's Lender Provisions. Notwithstanding any other
provisions in this Lease to the contrary, the following provisions shall be
controlling.

                    28.3.1 Encumbrance of Tenant's Buildings. Landlord hereby
consents to the execution, delivery, performance and recordation of a mortgage
or deed of trust and security agreement ("Mortgage") in favor of [Comerica] and
its successors and assigns (collectively, "Lender") covering all buildings,
improvements and structures located at the Real Property and owned by Tenant
(collectively, "Tenant's Building"), and all of the equipment, furniture, trade
fixtures and other personal property owned by Tenant, including any turbines and
other fixtures (collectively, the "Equipment") located at or used in connection
with the Real Property and Tenant's interest in this Lease. In the event of a
conflict between the Mortgage and the Lease, the Lease shall control.

                    28.3.2 Landlord's Lien Against Tenant's Equipment. Landlord
hereby agrees that should Tenant default in the performance of any of its
obligations hereunder, it will not assert against any of the Equipment, any
statutory, contractual, possessory, or other liens, including, without
limitation, rights of levy or distraint for rent, it may have or assert under
this Lease until Landlord has first given Lender (a) written notice of the
default under the Lease or other event creating such lien and (b) 60 days to
either cure or cause Tenant to cure such default or other event or remove the
Equipment from the Real Property. If Lender has not cured such default or other
event by the end of such 60-day period, Lender's security interest the Equipment
shall be deemed to be subordinate to any of Landlord's statutory, contractual,
possessory or other liens; provided that Lender/shall have no obligation to cure
or cause such default to be cured. Nothing provided herein shall waive or be
deemed a waiver any rights Landlord may have to make a claim against Tenant for
amounts due and owing by Tenant to Landlord. If, after any default by Tenant
under its obligations to Lender and the passage of any applicable cure period
without Tenant curing such default, Lender undertakes to enforce its remedies
against the Equipment, Landlord will, in good faith, cooperate with Lender in
its efforts to promptly assemble and remove all of the Equipment located on the
Real Property within the time period specified in this paragraph; provided that
Lender shall repair any damage to Tenant's Building caused by such removal.

                    28.3.3 Lender's Notice Address. In the event Landlord sends
any notice to Tenant, including, without limitation, a notice of default or
notice of termination, Landlord will send a contemporaneous, duplicate copy of
such notice to Lender at the following address:

                    _______________________________

                    _______________________________

                    _______________________________

                    28.3.4 Lender Cure Period. In the event of any default by
Tenant under this Lease and the passage of any applicable cure period without
Tenant curing such default, Landlord shall thereafter provide Lender with
written notice of such default and afford Lender an additional cure period often
days after such notice for any monetary default and 30 days (plus such
additional time as may be reasonably necessary to cure the default in the
exercise of Lender's reasonable efforts, but in no event no more that 90
additional days) after such notice for any nonmonetary default.

                                       16

<PAGE>

                    28.3.5 In the event of a termination of this Lease, whether
as a result of an uncured breach or default or as a result of a bankruptcy or
for any other reason, Landlord shall, upon the request by Lender or its
successors and assigns made within 30 days following such termination, at
Landlord's option, either: (a) pay off Tenant's loan under the Mortgage in
exchange for Tenant and Lender conveying to Landlord all right, title, and
interest in Tenant's assets, including without limitation, the Equipment and
Tenant's Building; or (b) enter into a new lease for the Real Property with
Lender or its successors and assigns ("New Lease"), which New Lease: (i) shall
be effective as of the date of the termination of this Lease; (ii) shall be for
a term expiring as of the last day of the term of this Lease; and (iii) shall be
on the same terms and conditions as this Lease (including any provisions for
renewal or extension of the term of this Lease); provided that Lender or its
successors and assigns cures any defaults under this Lease, except that Lender
or its successors and assigns shall be excused from curing a default arising
under Section 18.1.2 above if Lender or its successors and assigns make good
faith efforts to cure such default and fail to achieve such cure within 90 days.

                    28.3.6 Lender shall have the right to assign its right,
title and interest in the Mortgage to any third party. Until Lender has
completed a foreclosure of the Mortgage or accepted an assignment of this Lease
in lieu of foreclosure, neither Lender, nor its assign, shall be deemed to have
assumed any of Tenant's obligations under this Lease, and Tenant shall be
responsible for all obligations under this Lease. After any such foreclosure or
acceptance of an assignment of lease in lieu of foreclosure, Lender or its
assignee, as the case may be, shall be deemed by virtue of such conveyance to
have assumed all of the Tenant's obligations accruing under this Lease from and
after the date of such conveyance. Lender shall have the right to assign its
right, title and interest in this Lease or any New Lease to any third party with
the consent of Landlord, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld.
Lender may assign its right, title and interest in this Lease without the
consent of Landlord so long as: (i) the assignee delivers to Landlord a written
assumption agreement signed by the assignee wherein the assignee assumes the
obligations of the Tenant accruing under this Lease from and after the date of
such assignment; and (ii) such assignee has at least $25,000,000 net worth and
substantial experience in owning or operating power generation facilities
similar to the Power Facility. Upon any such assumption of the Tenant's
obligations under this Lease or any New Lease by an assignee of Lender, Lender
shall be automatically released of all of its obligations under this Lease or
the New Lease, if any. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary expressed
herein, an assignment of Tenant's Rights and obligations under the Lease may
only occur once during the Lease Term as defined in Section 2.4.

                    28.3.7 In the event of a default by Tenant under this Lease
or if Lender or its successors and assigns becomes the tenant under this Lease
or any New Lease, the Real Property may be used only for the purposes listed in
Section 3 above.

                    28.3.8 No amendment to this Lease or agreement between
Landlord and Tenant subordinating Tenant's interest in the Lease (except in such
instance where Landlord has provided Lender with a nondisturbance agreement in
form and substance reasonably acceptable to Lender), reducing the term of this
Lease, increasing rent or other monetary obligations of Tenant or canceling,
terminating or surrendering this Lease shall be effective without the prior
written consent of Lender, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld.

                    28.3.9 If any provisions of this Lease are in conflict with

                    28.3.11 No fire or casualty loss claims with respect to

Lease, neither Lender, nor its successors and assigns, shall be obligated to
operate or conduct any business activities on or at the Real Property, and the
failure of Lender or its successors and assigns to operate or conduct business
activities on or at the Real Property shall not constitute a default or breach
under this Lease.

                    28.3.13 Landlord shall not, in the absence of an uncured
default, disturb, or attempt to disturb, the possession, interest or quiet

mortgaged, Landlord will deliver to Tenant and Lender or its successors and
assigns a non-disturbance agreement, in form and substance reasonably acceptable
to Lender, signed by the owner of such encumbrance.

          29. Tenant's Permits. Tenant's obligations under this Lease shall be

or finder is claiming shall and does hereby indemnify the other party against,
and agrees to hold the other party harmless from, all such claim and all costs,
expenses and liabilities incurred in connection with such claim or any action or
proceeding brought on such claim, including attorneys' and witness fees and
court costs in defending against such claim.

          With a Copy to:   Tenant's Lender
                            (See Section 28.3.3 above for address)

Notice given in accordance with the terms hereof shall be deemed given and
received on the date of receipt if personally delivered, upon the date three
Business Days after posting if transmitted by mail or one Business Day after
depositing such Notice with an overnight carrier. Any party hereto may change
the address for receiving Notice by notice sent in accordance with the terms of
this Section. The inability to deliver a Notice because of a changed address of
which no Notice was given, or rejection or other refusal to accept any Notice,
shall be deemed to be the receipt of the Notice as of the date of such inability
to deliver, rejection or refusal to accept. Any Notice to be given by any party
hereto may be given by legal counsel for such party; however, notice to a
party's legal counsel without notice directly to such party shall not be deemed
notice to such party. The telephone numbers, fax numbers, and e-mail addresses
listed above are for convenience only and may not be used as a means to give any
Notice under this Lease.

          32. Waiver. The waiver by either party of any breach by the other
party of any term, covenant or condition herein contained shall not be deemed to
be a waiver of any subsequent breach of the same or any other term, covenant and
condition herein contained, nor shall any custom or practice which may become
established between the parties in the administration of the terms hereof be
deemed a waiver of, or in any way affect, the right of any party to insist upon
the performance by the other in strict accordance with said terms. No waiver
of any default of either party hereunder shall be implied from any acceptance by
Landlord or delivery by Tenant (as the case may be) of any payments due
hereunder or any omission by the non-defaulting party to take any action on
account of such default if such default persists or is repeated, and no express
waiver shall affect defaults other than as specified in said waiver. The
subsequent acceptance of any payments due hereunder by Landlord shall not be
deemed to be a waiver of any preceding breach by Tenant of any term, covenant or
condition of this Lease other than the failure of Tenant to pay the particular
amount so accepted, regardless of Landlord's knowledge of such preceding breach
at the time of acceptance of such payment.

          33. Miscellaneous.

               33.1 Governing Law. This Lease shall be deemed to be made under,
and shall be construed in accordance with and shall be governed by, the internal
substantive laws of the State of Arizona (without reference to choice of law
principles). Suit to enforce any provision of this Lease or to obtain any remedy
with respect hereto may

                                       19

be brought in Superior Court, Navajo County, Arizona, and each party hereto
expressly and irrevocably consents to the jurisdiction of said court.

               33.2 Successors and Assigns. Subject to the provisions of
Sections 22 and 24 above, and except as otherwise provided in this Lease, all of
the covenants, conditions and provisions of this Lease shall be binding upon,
and shall inure to the benefit of, the parties hereto and their respective
heirs, personal representatives and permitted successors and assigns.

               33.3 No Merger. The voluntary or other surrender of this Lease by
Tenant or a mutual termination thereof shall not work as a merger and shall, at
the option of Landlord, either: (a) terminate all or any existing subleases; or
(b) operate as an assignment to Landlord of Tenant's interest under any or all
such subleases.

               33.4 Professional Fees. If either Landlord or Tenant should bring
suit against the other with respect to this Lease, including for unlawful
detainer or any other relief against the other hereunder, then all costs and
expenses (including, without limitation, actual appraisers', accountants',
attorneys' and other professional fees and court costs) incurred by the
prevailing party therein, as determined by the judge of the court and not by the
jury, shall be paid by the other party.

               33.5 Terms, Headings and References. The words "Landlord" and
"Tenant" as used herein shall include the plural as well as the singular.
Wherever from the context it appears appropriate, each item stated in the
singular shall include the plural and vice versa, and the masculine, feminine,
or neuter form shall include the masculine, feminine, and neuter forms. The
paragraph headings of this Lease are not a part of this Lease and shall have no
effect upon the construction or interpretation of any part hereof. If there is
any specific and direct conflict between, or any ambiguity resulting from, the
terms and provisions of this Lease and the terms and provisions of any document,
instrument or other Lease executed in connection herewith or in furtherance
hereof, including any exhibits hereto, the same shall be consistently
interpreted in such manner as to give effect to the general purposes and
intention as expressed in this Lease, which shall be deemed to prevail and
control. All references to "Sections" shall be to the numbered sections of this
Lease unless specifically stated otherwise. In this Lease (unless the context
requires otherwise), the masculine, feminine and neuter genders and the singular
and the plural shall be deemed to include one another, as appropriate. As used
in this Agreement, "sole discretion" shall mean sole, absolute, unfettered and
unreviewable judgment and discretion without regard to whether such judgment or
discretion is exercised reasonably or unreasonably.

               33.6 Time of the Essence. Tenant and Landlord expressly and
specifically agree time is of the essence of this Agreement and all provisions,
obligations and conditions thereof. All time periods set forth herein in terms
of "Days" refer to calendar days. Whenever notice must be given, documents
delivered or an-act done under this Agreement on a day that is not a Business
Day, the notice may be given, document delivered or act done on the next
following day that is a Business Day. As used in this Agreement, "Business Day"
shall mean a day other than a Saturday, Sunday or a day observed as a legal
holiday by the United States government; the State of Arizona; or Navajo County,
Arizona.

               33.7 Prior Agreements: Amendments. This Lease (and the Exhibits
attached hereto) contain all of the covenants, provisions, agreements,
conditions and understandings between Landlord and Tenant concerning the Real
Property and any other matter covered or mentioned in this Lease, and no prior
agreement or understanding, oral or written, express or implied, pertaining to
the Real Property or any such other matter shall be effective for any purpose.
No provision of this Lease may be amended or added to except by an agreement in
writing signed by the parties hereto or their respective successors in interest.
The parties acknowledge that all prior agreements,

                                       20

<PAGE>

representations and negotiations are deemed superseded by the execution of this
Lease to the extent they are not expressly incorporated herein.

               33.8 Severability. If any term or provision of this Lease shall,
to any extent, be determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid
or unenforceable, the remainder of this Lease shall not be affected thereby, but
such term or provision shall be reduced or otherwise modified by such court or
authority only to the minimum extent necessary to make it valid and enforceable,
and each term and provision of this Lease shall be valid and enforceable to the
fullest extent permitted by law. If any term or provision cannot be reduced or
modified to make it reasonable and permit its enforcement, it shall be severed
from this Lease and the remaining terms shall be interpreted in such a way as to
give maximum validity and enforceability to this Lease. It is the intention of
the parties hereto that if any provision of this Lease is capable of two
constructions, one of which would render the provision void and the other of
which would render the provision valid, then the provision shall have the
meaning which renders it valid.

               33.9 Recording. From time to time, Landlord and Tenant agree that
at the request of either, each will execute a short form memorandum of this
Lease or an amended memorandum of this Lease in a form satisfactory to the
Lender for recording in the Office of the County Recorder, Navajo County,
Arizona. Such memorandum may be recorded against the Real Property,

               33.10 Exhibits. All exhibits, addenda and appendices attached to
this Lease are hereby incorporated in this Lease as though set forth at length
herein.

               33.11 Accord and Satisfaction. No payment of a lesser amount than
required herein shall be deemed to be other than on account of the amount
actually due, nor shall any endorsement or statement on any check or any letter
accompanying any check or payment be deemed an accord and satisfaction, and a
party may accept such check or payment without prejudice to such party's right
to recover the balance of such payment or pursue any other remedy provided in
this Lease. Each of the foregoing covenants and agreements shall be applicable
to any covenant or agreement either expressly contained in this Lease or imposed
by any statute or at common law.

               33.12 Tenant's Authority. Tenant and the persons and/or entities
executing this Lease on behalf of Tenant represent and warrant that: (a) Tenant
is a duly authorized and existing limited liability company and is qualified to
do business in the State of Arizona; (b) such persons and/or entities executing
this Lease are duly authorized to execute and deliver this Lease on Tenant's
behalf in accordance with the Tenant's operating agreement and all requisite
action has been taken to make this Lease valid and binding on and enforceable
against Tenant in accordance with its terms; (c) this Lease is binding upon
Tenant in accordance with its terms and, upon execution thereof, said Lease
shall be fully binding upon Tenant; (d) the execution by Tenant of this Lease
and the consummation by Tenant of the transaction hereby contemplated does not,

indenture, agreement, instrument or obligation to which Tenant is a party or
constitute a violation of any governmental requirement

               33.13 Construction. This Lease is the result of negotiations
between parties of roughly equivalent bargaining power, neither of whom has
acted under any duress or compulsion, whether legal, economic or otherwise.
Accordingly, the terms and provisions hereof shall be construed in accordance
with their usual and customary meanings. Landlord and Tenant hereby waive the
application of any rule of law which otherwise might be applicable to the
construction of this Lease that ambiguous or conflicting terms or provisions
should be construed against the party who (or whose attorney) prepared the
executed Lease or any earlier draft of the same. The parties acknowledge they
have had the opportunity to seek the advice and benefit of legal counsel prior
to executing this Lease, and have, in fact, sought such advice, or make a
conscious decision not to do so and to assume the risk of failing to do so.

               33.14 Negation of Partnership. Nothing in this Lease shall be
construed to render the Landlord in any way, or for any purpose, a partner,
joint venturer or associate with Tenant, nor shall this Lease be construed to
authorize either Landlord or Tenant to act for the other, except as expressly
stated herein. The only relationship between the parties hereto is that of
Landlord and Tenant.

               33.15 Additional Act or Documentation. Tenant and Landlord agree
to make, execute, and deliver such additional documents and instruments and take
such actions as may be necessary or appropriate to carry out the full intent and
purpose of this Lease.

of any kind or nature whatsoever.

               34. Execution. This Lease may be executed in counterparts, each

the same instrument. The partially executed signature page of any counterpart of
this Lease may be attached to any other partially executed counterpart of this
Lease without impairing the legal effect of the signature(s) on such signature

          ADDENDUM 1

                              OPERATIONS PROVISIONS

     As referenced in Section 7 of the Lease, Tenant hereby engages Landlord,
and Landlord hereby accepts Tenant's engagement, to operate and maintain the
Power Facility and the Real Property based on the terms and provisions set forth
in this Addendum 1 (hereinafter, the "Operations Provisions"). All capitalized
terms used in these Operations Provisions and not otherwise defined herein shall
have the meanings given in the Lease Agreement to which this Addendum is
attached (the "Lease "). If any of these Operations Provisions are inconsistent
or conflicting with provisions contained in other portions of the Lease, these
Operations Provisions shall govern, control and supersede such conflicting or
inconsistent provisions. As long as these Operations Provisions are in effect,
Tenant shall be relieved of any obligation under the Lease that Landlord has
agreed to perform under these Operations Provisions.

     For purposes of these Operations Provisions, the Landlord shall be referred
to as the "Facility Operator" of the Power Facility, and Tenant shall be
referred to as the "Facility Owner" of the Power Facility.

     1. Term. These Operations Provisions shall be effective on the Commencement
Date and shall terminate on the same day that the Lease Term expires or the
Lease otherwise terminates. Facility Owner or Facility Operator may terminate
the Operations Provisions upon 120 days prior written notice to the other party
in the event operations at the Paper Mill cease. Facility Owner or Facility
Operator may also terminate the Operations Provisions as provided in Section 11
hereof. Termination of the Operations Provisions under either of the preceding
two sentences shall not cause the Lease to terminate.

     2. Representatives and Personnel.

          2.1 Project Manager. Upon execution of the Lease, Facility Operator
shall appoint an individual (the "Project Manager"), following consultation with
Facility Owner, who is authorized and empowered to act for and on behalf of
Facility Operator on all matters concerning these Operations Provisions and
Facility Operator's obligations hereunder. In all such matters, Facility
Operator shall be bound by the written communications, directions, requests and
decisions made by the Project Manager. The current Project Manager is Robert
Kreizenbeck. Upon the commencement of operations at the Power Facility, Rob
Martin will assume responsibility as Project Manager.

          2.2 Plant Manager. The "Plant Manager" of the Paper Mill will direct
and manage the Facility Operator's resources and will have full responsibility
for all Power Facility operations and administration. The current Plant Manager
is John McKee.

          2.3 Site Personnel. Facility Operator shall provide and make available
as necessary, in accordance with the requirements of the Annual Operating Plan
and Annual Budget, "Site Personnel and "Home Office Personnel" as are required
to perform the Services. Such personnel shall be qualified and experienced in
the duties to which they are assigned, shall meet the requirements for Power
Facility personnel in accordance with "Prudent Operating and Maintenance
Practices" shall meet applicable requirements of the State of Arizona for power
plant operating personnel, and shall possess all necessary licenses and
certifications. The working hours, rates of compensation and all other matters
relating to the employment of Site Personnel and Home Office Personnel shall be
determined solely by Facility Operator (subject to Facility Owner's approval
rights with respect to the Annual Budget). There shall be two classes of Site
Personnel working at the Power Facility: "Shared Personnel" and "Specific Site
Personnel". Facility Operator will use commercially reasonable efforts to
minimize Specific Site Personnel and Facility Owner agrees to use commercially
reasonable efforts to automate Power Facility processes to reduce the necessity
for
<PAGE>

Specific Site Personnel. The parties currently anticipate that their joint
efforts will keep Specific Site Personnel at or under five persons.

          2.4 Control and Liability. Facility Operator shall retain sole
authority, control and responsibility with respect to its employment policy in
connection with the performance of its obligations hereunder. Facility Operator
shall be responsible for all human resource issues including, without
limitation, all claims, benefits, wages, insurance, training, hiring and firing,
union activities, collective bargaining and negotiations. Except as otherwise
provided in Section 7.1.1 of these Operations Provisions, Facility Operator
agrees that any and all claims, demands, notices, damages, costs, fees,
judgments, suits, causes of action, losses, liabilities and expenses, including
attorneys' fees and court costs, that arise or result from the intentional torts
of Facility Operator's employees shall be considered Excluded Claims and shall
be covered under Landlord's indemnification obligations set forth in Section 12
of the Lease. Facility Owner agrees that the Power Facility may be operated as
an IBEW union shop.

          2.5 Operating Capacity. Facility Operator shall provide sufficient
Site Personnel to operate the Power Facility. The parties recognize and agree

or is merely to replace an employee in an existing position.

          2.6 Representative of Facility Owner. Facility Owner shall appoint an
individual representative (the "General Manager") who shall be authorized and
empowered to act for and on behalf of Facility Owner on all matters concerning
these Operations Provisions and Facility Owner's obligations hereunder. In all
such matters, Facility Owner shall be bound by the written communications,
directions, requests and decisions made by the General Manager. The initial
General Manager is hereby declared to be Bill Carlson. Facility Owner may from
time to time appoint a new General Manager, following consultation with Facility
Operator, and shall notify Facility Operator in writing following appointment of
a new General Manager.

     3. Budget and Reporting. The Power Facility shall be operated by Facility
Operator in accordance with the Annual Budget approved by Facility Owner under
the following procedure.

          3.1 Annual Operating Plan and Budget.

               3.1.1 Adoption. (a) Ninety (90) calendar days prior to the
beginning of each Lease Year, Facility Operator shall prepare and submit to
Facility Owner a proposed "Annual Budget" for such year. The Annual Budget shall
be established on a monthly basis, and include a separate operating budget and
capital budget and, for informational purposes only, a five year projection, on
an annual basis, of operating and capital budgets and shall set forth, in detail
reasonably acceptable to Facility Owner: (i) anticipated operations and planned
repairs, (ii) routine maintenance and overhaul schedules (including planned
major maintenance), (iii) procurement (including equipment acquisitions and
spare parts and consumable inventories indicating a breakdown of capital items
and expense items), (iv) staffing, personnel and labor activities (including
unit rates for labor and holidays to be observed), (v) administrative
activities, (vi) capital improvements (the projection of capital expenditures
shall be separate budget items mutually agreed to by Facility Owner and Facility
Operator), and (vii) other work proposed to be undertaken by Facility Operator,
together with an itemized estimate, in detail reasonably acceptable to Facility
Owner, of all Operational Costs to be incurred in connection therewith. Such
Annual Budget shall be accompanied by an "Annual Operating Plan" setting forth
the underlying assumptions and implementation plans in connection with the
Annual Budget. Facility Owner shall review Facility Operator's proposed Annual
Budget and Annual Operating Plan within 30 days of submission by Facility
Operator and may, by written request, require changes, additions, deletions and
modifications. Facility Owner and Facility Operator will then meet and use their
best efforts to agree upon a final Annual Budget and

<PAGE>

Annual Operating Plan by the date which is 30 calendar days prior to the
commencement of such Lease Year. Such final Annual Budget and Annual Operating
Plan shall remain in effect throughout the applicable Lease Year, subject to
updating, revision and amendment as may be proposed by either party and
consented to in writing by the other party. To the extent possible, current
budgeting and operating procedures used by Facility Operator will be utilized to
reduce administrative burden. The initial Annual Budget and Annual Operating
Plan shall be proposed by Facility Operator by July 1, 2006, and shall utilize
the form attached hereto as Exhibit 1.

               3.1.2 Consistency with Operating Manuals. Facility Operator shall
operate the Power Facility to code and insurance requirements and in accordance
with Prudent Operating and Maintenance Practices. Unless otherwise agreed, any
specific manuals required by Facility Operator to operate the Power Facility
will be the responsibility of the Facility Owner to produce.

               3.1.3 Failure to Adopt. If, by 30 days prior to the first day of
any Lease Year, the parties are unable to reach agreement concerning any portion
of the Annual Operating Plan and/or Annual Budget for such Lease Year, those
portions of the Annual Operating Plan and/or Annual Budget that are not in
dispute shall become effective on the first day of the applicable Lease Year.
The parties shall continue to work in good faith to resolve any remaining
portions of the Annual Operating Plan and/or Annual Budget still in dispute, and
until resolution is reached, those portions of the proposed Annual Budget and
Annual Operating Plan shall become effective on the first day of the applicable
Lease Year.

               3.1.4 Cost Overruns. If at any time during the performance of its
obligations, Facility Operator becomes aware that any line item of Operational
Costs or the aggregate of all Operational Costs exceeds or will exceed by more
than five percent (5%) for any month the amount provided for that month in the
Annual Budget, Facility Operator shall promptly provide notice to Facility
Owner.

          7.1 Operational Costs. "Operational Costs" are those costs incurred in
connection with Facility Operator's performance of the Services for which
Facility Owner shall pay directly from its own accounts or for which Facility
Owner shall reimburse Facility Operator in the event these costs were paid for
by Facility Operator on behalf of Facility Owner. Such costs and expenses
generally include, but are not limited to, the following:

               7.1.1 Payroll and Related Personnel Costs. Payroll costs and
payroll additives incurred by Facility Operator in accordance with Facility
Operator's established personnel policies, including, all salaries and wages
(including any uplift) of personnel involved directly in the performance of the
Services, and all employee benefits and allowances for vacation, sick leave,
holidays, and company portion of employee insurance, social and retirement
benefits at Facility Operator's established rates and all payroll taxes,
worker's compensation and employer's liability insurance and all other insurance
premiums measured by payroll costs, and other contributions and benefits imposed
by any applicable law or regulation (collectively, the "Payroll Related Costs").
Facility Owner shall pay $200,000 in Payroll Related Costs for Shared Personnel
per Lease Year irrespective of the actual amount of Payroll Related Costs
incurred by Facility Operator for Shared Personnel. All indirect costs,
including Home Office Personnel supervision of Site Personnel and incidental
technical support to the Power Facility, shall not be charged to Facility Owner.
Specific Site Personnel Payroll Related Costs shall be billed to Facility Owner
on a pass-through basis. The reimbursement for Shared Personnel shall be indexed
for IBEW contractual increases in labor costs and benefits. Facility Operator
shall also be entitled to pass to Facility Owner start-up labor costs, as agreed
to by the parties in the initial Annual Budget and Annual Operating Plan.

               7.1.2 Other Operational Costs. Other actual costs and rates
incurred in the performance of the Services directly related to the Power
Facility, including but not limited to such costs and rates as: (a) actual costs
incurred by or reimbursed to Site Personnel engaged in the performance of the
Services for travel and subsistence; (b)the cost of all materials, spare parts,
tools, special tools, equipment, consumables and supplies used or consumed in
the performance of the Services; (c) the cost of equipment to be installed in
the Power Facility as recommended by Facility Operator and approved by Facility
Owner; (d) computer equipment at the Power Facility; (e) telephone costs for
calls originating from locations other than the Facility Operator's home office;
(f) all costs associated with consultants, subcontracts, and other outside
services as recommended by Facility Operator and, if exceeding the "material"
threshold in Section 4.3.1 hereof, approved in writing by Facility Owner; (g)
local taxes, and all excises and licenses, excepting only taxes based upon net
income of Facility Operator; (h) the cost of insurance premiums for insurance
policies maintained by Facility Operator on behalf of Facility Ownerpursuant to
Section 13 of the Lease; (i) all costs associated with Power Facility records
management, including but not limited to preparation of materials, equipment,
micro reproduction and operator time at Facility Operator's established rates
and approved by Facility

<PAGE>

Owner; and (j) all costs reasonably incurred by Facility Operator in responding
to an emergency as described in Section 4.8. All Operational Costs shall be
billed to Facility Owner at Facility Operator's actual cost, without markup.

               7.1.3 Payment for Services. Except as otherwise provided in
Section 7.1.4 below, on or within 15 calendar days after the last day of each
calendar month, Facility Operator shall prepare and submit to Facility Owner an
invoice for the Operational Costs, which were incurred and paid for by Facility
Operator during the preceding calendar month. Facility Owner shall pay to
Facility Operator the invoiced amount within 30 days thereafter. If Facility
Owner fails to make a timely payment of an invoiced amount, Facility Owner shall
pay interest at the rate established under Section 21 of the Lease, from the
date the amount is due until the date the amount is paid.

               7.1.4 Payment for Major Expenditures. The cost of any goods,
materials or Services in excess of $100,000, or which under generally accepted
accounting principles constitutes a capital expenditure, shall be paid by
Facility Owner to Facility Operator at least thirty (30) days prior to the time
such costs are incurred, or upon request in any emergency situation.

          7.2 Power Facility Full Capacity Bonus, Facility Owner shall pay
Facility Operator an incentive bonus for any Lease Year during which Facility
Operator is operating the Power Facility, calculated by Facility Owner based on
profitability of the Power Facility and the extent to which Facility Operator's
operations of the Power Facility exceed 90% of its capacity. The minimum
incentive bonus shall range in a linear fashion from $200,000 (capacity of 90%)
to $300,000 (capacity of 95%). To the minimum level will be added an additional
amount of up to $100,000 based upon (a) operating capacity above 95% and (b) the
profitability of the Power Facility. For example, if Facility Operator operates
the Power Facility at 100% of its production capacity for an entire Lease Year,
it is anticipated by Facility Owner that the incentive bonus could be as high as
$400,000 for such Lease Year. Such minimum and maximum amounts shall be adjusted
on each anniversary of the Commencement Date by the same percentage change as
occurs in the CPI. Facility Owner shall consider other factors in calculating
this bonus (such as Facility Operator's efforts to minimize production costs and
Specific Site Personnel Payroll Related Costs, and the Facility Operator's
compliance with applicable laws in connection with the air quality control
permit, as set forth in Section 4.5 above). The formula for this bonus will be
established in the Annual Budget.

     8 Facility Operator Insurance. Facility Operator shall obtain and maintain
as an Operational Cost hereunder the insurance set forth below:

          8.1 Automobile bodily injury and property damage liability insurance
covering automobiles owned or hired by Facility Operator with a limit for bodily
injury and property damage of $1,000,000 per occurrence.

          8.2 Workers compensation insurance covering Facility Operator's
employees as required by law and employers liability insurance with a limit of $
1,000,000 per occurrence.

          8.3 Commercial general liability insurance covering personal injury
and property damage to third parties and covering liability for damage to
property of third parties in the care, custody and control of Facility Operator
and/or its employees and subcontractors in connection with the operations at the
Power Facility. The coverage referred to herein shall be provided either in a
single policy or through a combination of policies. Such policy or combination
of policies shall have reasonable deductibles and a limit of not less than
$2,000,000 per occurrence and $2,000,000 in the aggregate, including blanket
contractual, broad form property damage, cross liability for named or additional
insureds and independent contractor coverage.

<PAGE>

          8.4 Facility Owner shall be furnished with satisfactory evidence that
the foregoing insurance is in effect and Facility Owner shall be notified 30
calendar days prior to the cancellation or material change of any such coverage.

     9. Termination of the Operating Provisions.

          9.1 Facility Condition at End of Term. In the event these Operation
Provisions terminate prior to termination of the Lease, Facility Operator shall
remove its Site Personnel from the Power Facility. Facility Operator shall leave
the Power Facility in good condition, normal wear and tear excepted, and with an
adequate supply of spare parts in accordance with the Annual Operating Plan then

operator engaged by Facility Owner. If Facility Owner makes such request prior
to the date that would otherwise be the termination date, these Operations
Provisions shall remain in full force and effect until the first to occur of:
(i) the date upon which a new operator agreeable to Facility Owner shall have
been engaged and trained to the satisfaction of Facility Owner: or (ii) 90 days
after the date which would otherwise have been the date of termination. Facility
Operator shall continue to be reimbursed for expenses incurred by it and
appropriately compensated so long as it continues to perform Services under
these Operations Provisions. The selection of a new operator by Facility Owner
shall be subject to the prior written approval of Facility Operator, which
approval shall not be unreasonably withheld.

     10. Indemnification. Facility Operator shall indemnify, defend and hold
harmless Facility Owner and its respective officers, directors, employees,
contractors, agents and representatives (the "Facility Owner Parties"), from and
against any and all claims, damages, judgments, suits, causes of action, losses,

or death of persons or physical loss of or damage to property claimed or
asserted by a Third Person and arising or resulting from: (a) any willful
misconduct or negligence of Facility Operator or any of its agents or employees
(collectively, "Facility Operator Parties") in conjunction with the use of
Parcel 1 or operation of the Power Facility by Facility Operator or any Facility
Operator Parties; (b) any default by Facility Operator of any obligations on
