                                   GLOBAL NOTE

      PSEG POWER LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (herein referred to
as the "Company," which term includes any successor corporation under the
Indenture hereinafter referred to), for value received, hereby promises to pay
to Cede & Co., or registered assigns, the principal sum of $ (or such lesser
amount as shall be the outstanding principal amount of this Global Note shown in
Schedule A hereto) on (the "Stated Maturity Date"), unless redeemed in
accordance with the provisions of this Global Note, and to pay interest on the
outstanding principal amount of this Global Note from , semi-annually in arrears
on 15 and 15 of each year, commencing (each, an "Interest Payment Date") at %
per annum until the principal hereof is paid or duly provided for. Interest
payable on each Interest Payment Date will include interest accrued from and
including or from and including the most recent Interest Payment Date to which

                                       2

      Each of Nuclear, Fossil and ER&T has jointly, severally and
unconditionally, guaranteed the payment of principal, premium, if any, and
interest with respect to this Global Note.

      The interest so payable, and punctually paid or duly provided for, on any
Interest Payment Date will, except as provided below, be paid to the person (the
"Holder") in whose name this Global Note (or one or more Predecessor Notes) is
registered at the close of business on the fifteenth day (whether or not a
Business Day (as defined below)) immediately preceding the applicable Interest
Payment Date (a "Regular Record Date"). Any such interest not so punctually paid
or duly provided for ("Defaulted Interest") will forthwith cease to be payable
to the Holder on such Regular Record Date and may either be paid to the person
in whose name this Global Note (or one or more Predecessor Notes) is registered
at the close of business on a special record date (the "Special Record Date")
for the payment of such Defaulted Interest to be fixed by the Trustee
hereinafter referred to, notice whereof shall be given to the Holder of this
Global Note not less than ten days prior to such Special Record Date, or may be
paid at any time in any other lawful manner, all as more fully provided in the
Indenture.

      For purposes of this Global Note, "Business Day" means each Monday,
Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday and Friday which is not a day on which banking
institutions in Newark, New Jersey and The City of New York are authorized or
obligated by law or executive order to close.

      Payments of principal, premium, if any, and interest with respect to this
Global Note will be made in such coin or currency of the United States of
America as at the time of payment is legal tender for the payment of pubic and
private debts. Payment of the principal of and any premium on this Global Note
on the Stated Maturity Date or date of earlier redemption will be made in
immediately available funds against presentation of this Global Note at the
office or agency of the Company maintained for that purpose in the Borough of
Manhattan, The City of New York. Payments of interest on an Interest Payment
Date will be made, at the option of the Company, by check mailed to the Holder
entitled thereto at the applicable address appearing in the Security Register or
by transfer of immediately available funds to an account maintained by the payee
with a bank located in the United States of America; provided, however, that so
long as Cede & Co. is the Holder of this Global Note, payments of interest on an
Interest Payment Date will be made in immediately available funds.

      Any payment of principal, premium or interest required to be made with
respect to this Global Note on a day that is not a Business Day need not be made
on such day, but may be made on the next succeeding Business Day with the same
force and effect as if made on such day and no additional interest shall be
payable on the next succeeding Business Day as a result of such delayed payment.

      General. This Global Note is one of the duly authorized series of
securities of the Company (the "Securities"), issued or to be issued under the
Indenture, dated as of April 16, 2001, among The Bank of New York, as trustee
(the "Trustee"), the Company, Fossil, Nuclear and ER&T (together with all

made for a statement of the respective rights, limitations of rights, duties and
immunities thereunder of the Company, Fossil, Nuclear, ER&T, the Trustee and

                                       3

authenticated and delivered and transferred. The Notes will be limited to $
aggregate principal amount, except as permitted in the Indenture, and will be
subject, without the consent of the holders of any series of Securities under
the Indenture, to the issuance of additional Notes in the future having the same
terms, other than the date of original issuance and the date on which interest
begins to accrue, so as to form one series with the Notes. All terms used in
this Global Note which are not defined herein shall have the meanings given to
them in the Indenture.

      Guarantee of ER&T Obligations; Payment of Dividends by ER&T to the
Company. The provisions of Section 1009 of the Indenture relating to the
guarantee of the Obligations of ER&T by the Company and the provisions of
Section 1010 of the Indenture relating to the payment of dividends by ER&T to
the Company shall apply to this Global Note.

      Events of Default. If an Event of Default with respect to the Notes shall

      Redemption. This Global Note (or portion thereof) will be redeemable at
the option of the Company, in whole or in part at any time, on at least 30 days
but not more than 60 days prior written notice mailed to the Holder hereof, at a
price the (the "Redemption Price") equal to the greater of (i) 100% of the
principal amount of this Global Note (or portion thereof) to be redeemed, or
(ii) the sum, as determined by the Calculation Agent (as defined below), of the
present values of the principal amount of this Global Note (or portion thereof)
to be redeemed and the remaining scheduled payments of interest thereon from the
date of redemption (the "Redemption Date") to            (the "Remaining Life"),
discounted from their respective payment dates to the Redemption Date on a
semiannual basis (assuming a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months) at
the Treasury Rate (as defined below) plus 30 basis points, plus, in either case,
unpaid interest thereon accrued to the Redemption Date.

      If money sufficient to pay the Redemption Price of this Global Note (or
portion hereof) to be redeemed on a Redemption Date is deposited with the
Trustee or a Paying Agent on or before such Redemption Date and certain other
conditions are satisfied, then on and after such Redemption Date, interest will
cease to accrue on this Global Note (or such portion hereof) called for
redemption.

      This Global Note will not be entitled to the benefit of, or be subject to,
any sinking fund.

      Certain Definitions. "Comparable Treasury Issue" means, with respect to
any Redemption Date for this Global Note (or portion hereof) to be redeemed, the
United States Treasury security selected by the Independent Investment Banker
(as defined below) as having the maturity comparable to the Remaining Life of
this Global Note (or portion hereof) to be redeemed that would be utilized, at
the time of selection and in accordance with customary financial practice, in
pricing new issues of corporate debt securities of comparable maturity with the
Remaining Life of this Global Note (or portion hereof) to be redeemed.

      "Calculation Agent" means The Bank of New York or such successor
Calculation Agent as is appointed by the Company.

<PAGE>
                                       4

      "Comparable Treasury Price" means, with respect to any Redemption Date for
this Global Note (or portion hereof) to be redeemed, (a) the average of four
Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations (as defined below) for the Redemption Date
for this Global Note (or portion hereof) to be redeemed, after excluding the
highest and lowest of such Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations, obtained by the
Calculation Agent, or, (b) if the Calculation Agent obtains fewer than four
Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations, the average of all such quotations.

      "Independent Investment Banker" means the Reference Treasury Dealer
appointed by the Trustee after consultation with the Company. "Reference
Treasury Dealer" means each of four primary U.S. Government securities dealers
in New York City selected by the Trustee in consultation with the Company and
initially will include Morgan Stanley & Co. Incorporated and Salomon Smith
Barney, Inc. If any Reference Treasury Dealer ceases to be a primary U.S.
government securities dealer, the Trustee will substitute another primary U.S.
government securities dealer for that dealer.

      "Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations" means, with respect to each
Reference Treasury Dealer and any Redemption Date, the average, as determined by
the Calculation Agent, of the bid and asked prices for the Comparable Treasury
Issue (expressed in each case as a percentage of its principal amount) quoted in
writing to the Calculation Agent by such Reference Treasury Dealer at 5:00 p.m.,
New York City time, on the third Business Day preceding such Redemption Date.

      "Treasury Rate" means, with respect to any Redemption Date: (a) the yield
for the maturity corresponding to the Comparable Treasury Issue, under the
heading that represents the average for the immediately preceding week appearing
in the most recently published statistical release designated "H.15(519)" or any
successor publication that is published weekly by the Board of Governors of the
Federal Reserve System and that establishes yields on actively traded United
States Treasury securities adjusted to constant maturity under the caption
"Treasury Constant Maturities," provided, that if no maturity is within three
months before or after the Stated Maturity Date, the yields for the two
published maturities most closely corresponding to the Comparable Treasury Issue
will be determined and the Treasury Rate shall be interpolated or extrapolated
from those yields on a straight line basis, rounding to the nearest month; or
(b) if the release referred to in clause (a) (or any successor release) is not
published during the week preceding the calculation date or does not contain the
yields referred to above, the rate per annum equal to the semiannual equivalent
yield to maturity of the Comparable Treasury Issue, calculated using a price for
the Comparable Treasury Issue (expressed as a percentage of its principal
amount) equal to the Comparable Treasury Price for such Redemption Date. The
Treasury Rate will be calculated on the third Business Day preceding the
Redemption Date.

      Reports. So long as this Global Note remains Outstanding, the Company will
file with the Trustee, within 30 days of filing them with the Securities and
Exchange Commission (the "SEC"), copies of the current, quarterly and annual
reports and of the information, documents and other reports (or copies of such
portions of any of the foregoing as the SEC may by rules and regulations
prescribe) that the Company is required to file with the SEC pursuant to Section
13 or Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the
"Exchange Act"). If the Company is not subject to the requirements of Section 13
or Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act and this Global Note remains Outstanding,
the Company must nevertheless file with the SEC

<PAGE>
                                       5

(if permitted) and the Trustee, on the date upon which the Company would have
been required to file with the SEC, current, quarterly and annual financial
statements, including any notes thereto (and with respect to annual reports, an
auditor's report by a firm of established national reputation, upon which the
Trustee may conclusively rely), and a "Management's Discussion and Analysis of
Financial Condition and Results of Operations," both comparable to that which
the Company would have been required to include in such current, quarterly and
annual reports, information, documents or other reports on Forms 8-K, 10-Q and
10-K if the Company was subject to the requirements of Section 13 or 15(d) of
the Exchange Act; provided that the Company will not be required to register
under the Exchange Act by virtue of this provision, if not otherwise required to
do so.

      Modification and Waivers; Obligations of the Company Absolute. The
Indenture permits, with certain exceptions as therein provided, the amendment
thereof and the modification of the rights and obligations of the Company and
each Guarantor and the rights of the Holders of the Securities of each series.
Such amendment may be effected under the Indenture at any time by the Company,
each Guarantor and the Trustee with the consent of the Holders of a majority in
aggregate principal amount of all Securities issued under the Indenture at the
time Outstanding and affected thereby. The Indenture also contains provisions
permitting the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the
Securities at the time Outstanding, on behalf of the Holders of all Outstanding
Securities, to waive compliance by the Company with certain provisions of the
Indenture. Furthermore, provisions in the Indenture permit the Holders of a
majority in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of an
individual series, to waive, on behalf of all of the Holders of Securities of
such individual series, certain past defaults under the Indenture and their
consequences. Any such consent or waiver shall be conclusive and binding upon
the Holder of this Global Note and upon all future Holders of this Global Note
and of any Note issued upon the registration of transfer hereof or in exchange
hereof or in lieu hereof, whether or not notation of such consent or waiver is
made upon this Note.

      No reference herein to the Indenture and no provision of this Global Note
or of the Indenture shall alter or impair the obligation of the Company, which
is absolute and unconditional, to pay the principal, premium, if any, and
interest with respect to this Global Note at the times, place and rate, and in
the coin or currency herein prescribed.

      Defeasance and Covenant Defeasance. The Indenture contains provisions for
defeasance at any time of (a) the entire indebtedness of the Company on this
Global Note and (b) certain restrictive covenants and the related defaults and
Events of Default, upon compliance by the Company with certain conditions set
forth in the Indenture, which provisions apply to this Global Note.

      Authorized Denominations. The Notes are issuable only in registered form
without coupons in minimum denominations of $1,000 and integral multiples of
$1,000 in excess thereof.

      Registration of Transfer or Exchange of this Global Note. As provided in
the Indenture and subject to certain limitations herein and therein set forth,
the transfer of this Global Note is registrable in the Security Register upon
surrender of this Global Note for registration of transfer at the office or
agency of the Company in any place where the principal of (and premium, if any)
and interest on this Global Note are payable, duly endorsed by, or accompanied
by a written

<PAGE>
                                       6

instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Company and the Security
Registrar duly executed by, the Holder hereof or his attorney duly authorized in
writing, and thereupon one or more new Global Notes, of authorized denominations
and for the same aggregate principal amount, will be issued to the designated
transferee or transferees.

      As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations herein and
therein set forth, the Global Notes are exchangeable for a like aggregate
principal amount of Global Notes of different authorized denominations, as
requested by the Holders surrendering the same.

      This Global Note is a Global Security within the meaning of the Indenture.
If The Depository Trust Company is at any time unwilling, unable or ineligible
to continue as depository and a successor depository is not appointed by the
Company within 90 days or an Event of Default under the Indenture has occurred
and is continuing, the Company will issue Notes in certificated form in exchange
for this Global Security. In addition, the Company may at any time determine not
to have Notes represented by one or more Global Securities and, in such event,
will issue Notes in certificated form in exchange in whole for this Global
Security. In any such instance, an owner of a beneficial interest in this Global
Note will receive Notes in certificated form equal in principal amount to such
beneficial interest and to have such Notes registered in its name. Notes so
issued in certificated form will be issued in denominations of $1,000 and
integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof and will be issued in registered
form only, without coupons.

      No service charge shall be made for any such registration of transfer or
exchange, but the Company may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any
tax or other governmental charge payable in connection therewith.

      Prior to due presentment of this Global Note for registration of transfer,
the Company, the Trustee and any agent of the Company or the Trustee may treat
the Holder of this Global Note as the owner hereof for all purposes, whether or
not this Global Note be overdue, and neither the Company, the Trustee nor any
such agent shall be affected by notice to the contrary.

      Interests in this Global Note are exchangeable or transferable in whole or
in part for interests in the Temporary Regulation S Global Note or Regulation S
Global Note, in each case of the same series, only if such exchange or transfer
complies with the Indenture.

      Governing Law. This Global Note shall be governed by and construed in
accordance with the law of the State of New York.

      Unless the certificate of authentication hereon has been executed by the
Trustee by manual signature, this Global Note shall not be entitled to any
benefit under the Indenture or be valid or obligatory for any purpose.

has been complied with; and

            (d) a statement as to whether,  in the opinion of each such officer,
such condition or covenant has been complied with.

      Section  2.06.  Events of  Default;  Waiver.  The Holders of a Majority in
liquidation  amount of the Preferred  Securities  may, by vote, on behalf of the
Holders, waive any past Event of Default and its consequences. Upon such waiver,
any such Event of Default shall cease to exist, and any Event of Default arising
therefrom  shall be  deemed  to have  been  cured,  for  every  purpose  of this

determines  that the  withholding  of such  notice  is in the  interests  of the
Holders.

            (b) The Guarantee  Trustee shall not be deemed to have  knowledge of

      Section 3.01. Powers and Duties of the Guarantee Trustee.

            (a) This Guarantee  Agreement shall be held by the Guarantee Trustee
for the benefit of the Holders,  and the  Guarantee  Trustee  shall not transfer
this  Guarantee  Agreement to any Person except a Holder  exercising  his or her
rights  pursuant  to Section  5.04(iv) or to a  Successor  Guarantee  Trustee on
acceptance by such  Successor  Guarantee  Trustee of its  appointment  to act as
Successor  Guarantee  Trustee.  The right,  title and interest of the  Guarantee
Trustee  shall  automatically  vest  in any  Successor  Guarantee  Trustee  upon

                                       5
<PAGE>

by such  Successor  Guarantee  Trustee  of its  appointment  hereunder  and such
vesting and  cessation of title shall be effective  whether or not  conveyancing
documents have been executed and delivered  pursuant to the  appointment of such
Successor Guarantee Trustee.

            (b) If an Event of  Default  has  occurred  and is  continuing,  the
Guarantee Trustee shall enforce this Guarantee  Agreement for the benefit of the
Holders.

            (c) The  Guarantee  Trustee,  before the  occurrence of any Event of
Default  and after the curing of all Events of Default  that may have  occurred,
shall  undertake  to perform only such duties as are  specifically  set forth in
this Guarantee Agreement,  and no implied covenants or obligations shall be read
into this Guarantee Agreement against the Guarantee Trustee. In case an Event of
Default  has  occurred  and is  continuing  (and  has not been  cured or  waived
pursuant to Section  2.06),  the Guarantee  Trustee  shall  exercise such of the
rights and powers  vested in it by this  Guarantee  Agreement,  and use the same
degree of care and skill in its  exercise  thereof,  as a prudent  person  would
exercise or use in the conduct of his or her own affairs.

            (d) No provision of this Guarantee  Agreement  shall be construed to
relieve the Guarantee Trustee from liability for its own negligent  action,  its
own negligent failure to act or its own willful misconduct, except that:

                  (i) prior to the  occurrence of any Event of Default and after
the curing or waiving of all such Events of Default that may have occurred:

                        (A) the duties and obligations of the Guarantee  Trustee
shall  be  determined  solely  by  the  express  provisions  of  this  Guarantee
Agreement,  and  the  Guarantee  Trustee  shall  not be  liable  except  for the
performance of such duties and obligations as are specifically set forth in this
Guarantee Agreement; and

                        (B) in the  absence  of bad  faith  on the  part  of the
Guarantee Trustee,  the Guarantee Trustee may conclusively rely, as to the truth
of the statements and the correctness of the opinions  expressed  therein,  upon
any certificates or opinions  furnished to the Guarantee  Trustee and conforming
to the  requirements  of this Guarantee  Agreement;  but in the case of any such
certificates or opinions that by any provision  hereof or of the Trust Indenture
Act are  specifically  required to be furnished to the  Guarantee  Trustee,  the
Guarantee Trustee shall be under a duty to examine the same to determine whether
or not they conform to the requirements of this Guarantee Agreement;

                  (ii) the  Guarantee  Trustee shall not be liable for any error
of  judgment  made in good  faith  by a  Responsible  Officer  of the  Guarantee
Trustee,  unless it shall be proved that the Guarantee  Trustee was negligent in
ascertaining the pertinent facts upon which such judgment was made;

                  (iii) the  Guarantee  Trustee shall not be liable with respect
to any action  taken or  omitted  to be taken by it in good faith in  accordance
with the  direction  of the Holders of a Majority in  liquidation  amount of the
Preferred  Securities  relating to the time,

method and place of conducting any  proceeding  for any remedy  available to the
Guarantee Trustee, or exercising any trust or power conferred upon the Guarantee
Trustee under this Guarantee Agreement; and

                  (iv) no provision of this  Guarantee  Agreement  shall require
the  Guarantee  Trustee  to  expend  or risk its own  funds or  otherwise  incur
personal  financial  liability in the performance of any of its duties or in the
exercise of any of its rights or powers,  if the  Guarantee  Trustee  shall have
reasonable  grounds for believing  that the repayment of such funds or liability
is not reasonably  assured to it under the terms of this Guarantee  Agreement or
reasonable indemnity against such risk or liability is not reasonably assured to
it.

      Section 3.02. Certain Rights of Guarantee Trustee.

            (a) Subject to the provisions of Section 3.01:

                  (i) The Guarantee  Trustee may conclusively  rely and shall be
fully  protected  in acting  or  refraining  from  acting  upon any  resolution,
certificate, statement, instrument, opinion, report, notice, request, direction,
consent,  order, bond, debenture,  note, other evidence of indebtedness or other
paper or document believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed,  sent or
presented by the proper party or parties.

                  (ii) Any  direction or act of the  Guarantor  contemplated  by
this  Guarantee  Agreement  shall  be  sufficiently  evidenced  by an  Officers'
Certificate unless otherwise prescribed herein.

                  (iii)  Whenever,  in  the  administration  of  this  Guarantee
Agreement, the Guarantee Trustee shall deem it desirable that a matter be proved
or  established  before  taking,  suffering  or  omitting  to  take  any  action
hereunder,  the Guarantee Trustee (unless other evidence is herein  specifically
prescribed)  may,  in  the  absence  of  bad  faith  on its  part,  request  and
conclusively  rely upon an  Officers'  Certificate  which,  upon receipt of such
request  from  the  Guarantee  Trustee,  shall  be  promptly  delivered  by  the
Guarantor.

                  (iv) The Guarantee Trustee may consult with legal counsel, and
the written  advice or Opinion of Counsel with respect to legal matters shall be
full and complete  authorization  and protection in respect of any action taken,
suffered or omitted to be taken by it hereunder in good faith and in  accordance
with such advice or  opinion.  Such legal  counsel  may be legal  counsel to the
Guarantor  or any of  its  Affiliates  and  may  be  one of its  employees.  The
Guarantee  Trustee  shall  have  the  right  at any  time to  seek  instructions
concerning  the  administration  of this  Guarantee  Agreement from any court of
competent jurisdiction.

                  (v) The  Guarantee  Trustee  shall be under no  obligation  to
exercise any of the rights or powers vested in it by this Guarantee Agreement at
the request or direction of any Holder,  unless such Holder shall have  provided
to the Guarantee Trustee such reasonable indemnity as would satisfy a reasonable
person in the position of the  Guarantee  Trustee,  against the costs,  expenses
(including  attorneys' fees and expenses) and liabilities that might be incurred
by it in  complying  with such  request or  direction;  provided  that,  nothing

                                       7
<PAGE>

contained in this  Section  3.02(a)(v)  shall be taken to relieve the  Guarantee
Trustee,  upon the  occurrence  of an Event of  Default,  of its  obligation  to
exercise the rights and powers vested in it by this Guarantee Agreement.

                  (vi)  The  Guarantee  Trustee  shall  not be bound to make any
investigation  into the facts or matters stated in any resolution,  certificate,
statement,  instrument,  opinion, report, notice, request,  direction,  consent,
order, bond,  debenture,  note, other evidence of indebtedness or other paper or
document,  but the Guarantee Trustee,  in its discretion,  may make such further
inquiry or investigation into such facts or matters as it may see fit.

                  (vii) The  Guarantee  Trustee may execute any of the trusts or
powers  hereunder  or perform  any duties  hereunder  either  directly  or by or
through  its  agents  or  attorneys,  and the  Guarantee  Trustee  shall  not be
responsible  for any  misconduct  or negligence on the part of any such agent or
attorney appointed with due care by it hereunder.

                  (viii)  Whenever  in  the  administration  of  this  Guarantee
Agreement the Guarantee Trustee shall deem it desirable to receive  instructions
with  respect  to  enforcing  any  remedy  or right or taking  any other  action
hereunder,  the Guarantee Trustee (A) may request instructions from the Holders,
(B) may refrain from  enforcing such remedy or right or taking such other action
until such  instructions  are received,  and (C) shall be protected in acting in
accordance with such instructions.

                  (ix) The Guarantee  Trustee shall not be liable for any action
taken,  suffered,  or  omitted  to be taken by it in good  faith and  reasonably
believed by it to be  authorized  or within the  discretion  or rights or powers
conferred upon it by this Guarantee Agreement.

                  (x) The  Guarantee  Trustee shall not be deemed to have notice
of any Default or Event of Default unless a Responsible Officer of the Guarantee
Trustee has actual knowledge thereof or unless written notice of any event which
is in fact such a default is received by the Guarantee  Trustee at the Corporate
Trust Office and such notice  references the Trust Securities and this Guarantee
Agreement.

                  (xi) The  Guarantee  Trustee  may request  that the  Guarantor
deliver an Officers'  Certificate  setting forth the names of individuals and/or
titles of officers authorized at such time to take specified actions pursuant to
this  Guarantee  Agreement,  which  Officers'  Certificate  may be signed by any
person  authorized  to sign  an  Officers'  Certificate,  including  any  person
specified as so authorized in any such certificate  previously delivered and not
superseded.

            (b) No  provision  of this  Guarantee  Agreement  shall be deemed to
impose any duty or  obligation  on the  Guarantee  Trustee to perform any act or
acts or exercise any right, power, duty or obligation conferred or imposed on it
in any  jurisdiction  in which it shall be  illegal,  or in which the  Guarantee
Trustee shall be unqualified or incompetent in accordance  with  applicable law,
to perform any such act or acts or to exercise  any such right,

                                       8
<PAGE>

power,  duty or obligation.  No permissive  power or authority  available to the
Guarantee Trustee shall be construed to be a duty to act in accordance with such
power and authority.

      Section 3.03.  Indemnity.  The Guarantor agrees to indemnify the Guarantee
Trustee for,  and to hold it harmless  against,  any and all loss,  liability or
expense,  including  taxes  (other  than  taxes  based  upon the  income  of the
Guarantee Trustee) incurred without negligence or willful misconduct on the part
of the Guarantee Trustee, arising out of or in connection with the acceptance or
administration  of this  Guarantee  Agreement,  including the costs and expenses
(including  reasonable  legal fees and expenses) of defending itself against any
claim or liability in connection  with the exercise or performance of any of its
powers or duties  hereunder.  The Guarantee  Trustee will not claim or exact any
lien or charge on any  Guarantee  Payments  as a result of any  amount due to it
under this Guarantee Agreement.

            When the Guarantee  Trustee incurs  expenses or renders  services in
connection  with an Event of Default  specified  in  Section  6.01(3) or Section
6.01(4) of the Indenture,  the expenses  (including  the reasonable  charges and
expenses of its  counsel)  and the  compensation  for  services  are intended to
constitute  expenses of  administration  under any  applicable  federal or state
bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar law.

            The provisions of this Section 3.03 shall survive the termination of
this Guarantee Agreement or the resignation or removal of the Guarantee Trustee.

                                   ARTICLE IV
                                GUARANTEE TRUSTEE

      Section 4.01. Guarantee Trustee; Eligibility.

            (a) There shall at all times be a Guarantee Trustee which shall:

                  (i) not be an Affiliate of the Guarantor; and

                  (ii)  be a  Person  that is  eligible  pursuant  to the  Trust
Indenture Act to act as such and has a combined  capital and surplus of at least
fifty million U.S. dollars ($50,000,000), and shall be a corporation meeting the
requirements of Section 310(a) of the Trust  Indenture Act. If such  corporation
publishes  reports of  condition  at least  annually,  pursuant to law or to the
requirements of the supervising or examining  authority,  then, for the purposes
of this  Section and to the extent  permitted  by the Trust  Indenture  Act, the
combined  capital  and  surplus  of such  corporation  shall be deemed to be its
combined capital and surplus as set forth in its most recent report of condition
so published.

            (b) If at any time the Guarantee  Trustee shall cease to be eligible
to so act under Section 4.01(a),  the Guarantee Trustee shall immediately resign
in the manner and with the effect set out in Section 4.02(c).

            (c) If the Guarantee  Trustee has or shall acquire any  "conflicting
interest"  within the meaning of Section 310(b) of the Trust  Indenture Act, the
Guarantee Trustee

                                       9
<PAGE>

and Guarantor shall in all respects comply with the provisions of Section 310(b)
of the Trust Indenture Act. In determining  whether the Guarantee  Trustee has a
"conflicting  interest"  within the  meaning of Section  310(b)(1)  of the Trust
Indenture Act, the provisions  contained in the proviso to Section  310(b)(1) of
the Trust Indenture Act and the Guarantee  Trustee's Statement of Eligibility on
Form T-1 shall be deemed incorporated herein.

      Section  4.02.  Appointment,  Removal  and  Resignation  of the  Guarantee
Trustee.

            (a)  Subject  to  Section  4.02(b),  the  Guarantee  Trustee  may be
appointed or removed without cause at any time by the Guarantor.

            (b) The Guarantee  Trustee shall not be removed until new,  eligible
guarantee trustee has been appointed (a "Successor  Guarantee  Trustee") and has
accepted such  appointment and assumed the applicable  obligations  hereunder by
written instrument executed by such Successor Guarantee Trustee and delivered to
the Guarantor.

            (c) The Guarantee  Trustee may resign from office  (without need for
prior or subsequent  accounting)  by an  instrument  in writing  executed by the
Guarantee  Trustee and delivered to the Guarantor,  which  resignation shall not
take effect  until a Successor  Guarantee  Trustee  has been  appointed  and has
accepted such  appointment  by instrument in writing  executed by such Successor
Guarantee  Trustee and delivered to the  Guarantor  and the resigning  Guarantee
Trustee.

            (d) If no Successor  Guarantee Trustee shall have been appointed and
accepted  appointment  as  provided  in this  Section  4.02 within 60 days after
delivery  to the  Guarantor  of an  instrument  of  resignation,  the  resigning
Guarantee  Trustee may petition,  at the expense of the Guarantor,  any court of
competent  jurisdiction for appointment of a Successor  Guarantee Trustee.  Such
court may  thereupon,  after  prescribing  such  notice,  if any, as it may deem
proper, appoint a Successor Guarantee Trustee.

                                    ARTICLE V
                                    GUARANTEE

      Section 5.01.  Guarantee.  The Guarantor  irrevocably and  unconditionally
agrees to pay in full to the Holders of the Outstanding Preferred Securities the
Guarantee  Payments  (without  duplication of amounts  theretofore paid by or on
behalf  of the  Issuer  pursuant  to the  Trust  Agreement  or by the  Guarantor
pursuant to the Indenture), as and when due, regardless of any defense, right of
set-off or  counterclaim  which the Issuer may have or assert.  The  Guarantor's
obligation to make a Guarantee Payment may be satisfied by direct payment of the
required amounts by the Guarantor to the Holders or by causing the Issuer to pay
such amounts to the Holders.

      Section 5.02.  Waiver of Notice and Demand.  The  Guarantor  hereby waives
notice of acceptance of the Guarantee Agreement and of any liability to which it
applies or may apply,  presentment,  demand for payment,  any right to require a
proceeding first against the Guarantee

                                       10
<PAGE>

Trustee, the Issuer or any other Person before proceeding against the Guarantor,
protest, notice of nonpayment,  notice of dishonor, notice of redemption and all
other notices and demands.

      Section  5.03.  Obligations  Not  Affected.  The  obligations,  covenants,
agreements and duties of the Guarantor  under this Guarantee  Agreement shall in
no way be affected or impaired by reason of the  happening  from time to time of
any of the following:

            (a) the release or waiver, by operation of law or otherwise,  of the
performance  or  observance  by the Issuer of any express or implied  agreement,
covenant, term or condition relating to the Preferred Securities to be performed
or observed by the Issuer;

            (b) the  extension  of time for the  payment by the Issuer of all or
any portion of the Distributions (other than an extension of time for payment of
Distributions  that  results from an Extension  Period on the  Debentures  as so
provided in the Indenture),  Redemption Price,  Liquidation  Distribution or any
other sums payable under the terms of the Preferred  Securities or the extension
of time for the performance of any other obligation under, arising out of, or in
connection with, the Preferred Securities;

            (c) any failure, omission, delay or lack of diligence on the part of
the Holders to enforce, assert or exercise any right, privilege, power or remedy
conferred on the Holders pursuant to the terms of the Preferred  Securities,  or
any action on the part of the Issuer  granting  indulgence  or  extension of any
kind;

            (d) the voluntary or involuntary liquidation,  termination,  sale of
any collateral, receivership, insolvency, bankruptcy, assignment for the benefit
of creditors,  reorganization,  arrangement, composition or readjustment of debt
of, or other similar proceedings  affecting,  the Issuer or any of the assets of
the Issuer;

            (e) any  invalidity  of, or detect or  deficiency  in, the Preferred
Securities;

            (f) the settlement or compromise of any obligation guaranteed hereby
or hereby incurred; or

            (g)  to  the  extent  permitted  by  law,  any  other   circumstance
whatsoever  that might  otherwise  constitute a legal or equitable  discharge or
defense  of a  guarantor,  it being  the  intent of this  Section  5.03 that the
obligations of the Guarantor hereunder shall be absolute and unconditional under
any and all circumstances.

            There  shall be no  obligation  of the Holders to give notice to, or
obtain the consent of, the Guarantor with respect to the happening of any of the
foregoing.

      Section  5.04.  Rights of Holders.  The Guarantor  expressly  acknowledges
that: (i) this Guarantee  Agreement will be deposited with the Guarantee Trustee
to be held for the benefit of the Holders;  (ii) the  Guarantee  Trustee has the
right to enforce this  Guarantee  Agreement on behalf of the Holders;  (iii) the
Holders of a Majority in liquidation amount of the Preferred

                                       11
<PAGE>

Securities have the right to direct the time, method and place of conducting any
proceeding for any remedy available to the Guarantee  Trustee in respect of this
Guarantee  Agreement  or exercise  or direct the  exercise of any trust or power
conferred upon the Guarantee Trustee under this Guarantee Agreement; and (iv) if
the Guarantee  Trustee has failed to enforce this  Guarantee  Agreement as above
provided,  any Holder may  institute  a legal  proceeding  directly  against the
Guarantor to enforce its rights under this  Guarantee  Agreement,  without first
instituting a legal proceeding against the Guarantee Trustee,  the Issuer or any
other Person.

      Section 5.05.  Guarantee of Payment.  This Guarantee  Agreement  creates a
guarantee of payment and not of collection. This Guarantee Agreement will not be
discharged  except  by  payment  of the  Guarantee  Payments  in  full  (without
duplication of amounts  theretofore paid by the Issuer) or upon  distribution of
Debentures to Holders as provided in the Trust Agreement.

      Section 5.06.  Subrogation.  The Guarantor  shall be subrogated to all (if
any) rights of the Holders  against the Issuer in respect of any amounts paid to
the Holders by the Guarantor  under this Guarantee  Agreement and shall have the
right to waive  payment  by the  Issuer  pursuant  to  Section  5.01;  provided,
however,  that the  Guarantor  shall  not  (except  to the  extent  required  by
mandatory provisions of law) be entitled to enforce or exercise any rights which
it may acquire by way of subrogation or any  indemnity,  reimbursement  or other
agreement,  in all cases as a result of payment under this Guarantee  Agreement,
if, at the time of any such  payment,  any amounts are due and unpaid under this
Guarantee  Agreement.  If any amount shall be paid to the Guarantor in violation
of the preceding sentence, the Guarantor agrees to hold such amount in trust for
the Holders and to pay over such amount to the Holders.

      Section 5.07. Independent Obligations. The Guarantor acknowledges that its
obligations  hereunder are  independent  of the  obligations  of the Issuer with
respect to the Preferred  Securities  and that the Guarantor  shall be liable as
principal and as debtor  hereunder to make  Guarantee  Payments  pursuant to the
terms of this Guarantee  Agreement  notwithstanding  the occurrence of any event
referred to in subsections (a) through (g), inclusive, of Section 5.03 hereof.

                                   ARTICLE VI
                           COVENANTS AND SUBORDINATION

      Section 6.01.  Subordination.  This Guarantee Agreement will constitute an
unsecured  obligation of the Guarantor and will rank  subordinate  and junior in
right of payment to all general liabilities of the Guarantor.

      Section 6.02. Pari Passu Guarantees.  This Guarantee  Agreement shall rank
pari passu with any similar  Guarantee  Agreements  issued by the  Guarantor  on
behalf of the holders of Cumulative Quarterly Income Preferred Securities issued
by PSEG Power  Capital  Trust I, PSEG Power Capital Trust II, PSEG Power Capital
Trust III, PSEG Power Capital Trust IV and PSEG Power Capital Trust V.

                                   TERMINATION

      Section 7.01. Termination. This Guarantee Agreement shall terminate and be
of no  further  force and  effect  upon (i) full  payment  by the  Issuer or the
Guarantor,  as the  case  may be,  of the  Redemption  Price  for all  Preferred
Securities, (ii) the distribution of the Debentures to the Holders in accordance
with Article VIII of the Trust Agreement upon liquidation of the Issuer or (iii)
full payment by the Issuer or the Guarantor,  as the case may be, of the amounts
payable in accordance with the Trust  Agreement upon  liquidation of the Issuer.
Notwithstanding  the  foregoing,  this  Guarantee  Agreement will continue to be
effective or will be  reinstated,  as the case may be, if at any time any Holder
must restore  payment of any sums paid with respect to Preferred  Securities  or
this Guarantee Agreement.

                                  ARTICLE VIII
                                  MISCELLANEOUS

      Section  8.01.  Successors  and Assigns.  All  guarantees  and  agreements
contained  in this  Guarantee  Agreement  shall  bind the  successors,  assigns,
receivers,  trustees and representatives of the Guarantor and shall inure to the
benefit  of the  Holders  of the  Preferred  Securities  then  outstanding.  The
Guarantor  may not  consolidate  with or merge  with or into,  or sell,  convey,
transfer or lease its properties and assets as an entirety or  substantially  as
an entirety  (either in one  transaction  or a series of  transactions)  to, any
Person unless permitted under Article Five of the Indenture.  In connection with
a consolidation,  merger or sale involving the Guarantor that is permitted under
Article  Five  of  the  Indenture  the  Person  formed  by  or  surviving   such
consolidation  or merger or to which such sale,  conveyance,  transfer  or lease
shall have been made, if other than the Guarantor, shall expressly assume all of
the obligations of the Guarantor hereunder and under the Trust Agreement.

      Section 8.02. Amendments.  Except with respect to any changes which do not
adversely  affect the rights of the  Holders in any  material  respect (in which
case no consent of the Holders will be required),  this Guarantee  Agreement may
only be  amended  with the  prior  approval  of the  Holders  of a  Majority  in
liquidation  amount  of  the  Preferred  Securities   (excluding  any  Preferred
Securities  held by the Guarantor or an affiliate  thereof).  The  provisions of
Article VI of the Trust Agreement concerning meetings of the Holders shall apply
to the giving of such approval.

      Section 8.03. Notices. Any notice, request or other communication required
or permitted to be given hereunder shall be in writing and delivered, telecopied
