Each invoice prior to Final Completion of each Subproject shall be accompanied by a fully executed Contractor’s Interim Lien and Claim Waiver in the form set forth in Exhibit 5.2(C) for all work performed through the date for which payment is requested, and fully executed Interim Lien and Claim Waivers from each Subcontractor (other than with respect to Subcontracts with a total payment obligation of less than $500,000) in the form set forth in Exhibit 5.2(C) for all work performed through the date for which payment is requested.

5.3Final Payment. Upon Final Completion of each Subproject, Contractor shall, in addition to the other requirements in the Agreement, submit a statement summarizing and reconciling all previous invoices, payments and Change Orders, and an affidavit that all payrolls, payroll taxes, liens, charges, claims, demands, judgments, security interests, bills for Materials, and any other indebtedness connected with the Project have been paid, accompanied by a fully executed Contractor’s Final Lien and Claim Waiver in the form set forth in Exhibit 6.3(A) and fully executed Final Lien and Claim Waivers from each Subcontractor in the form set forth in Exhibit 6.3(A).

5.4Withholding. Should FirstEnergy in good faith dispute any portion of an invoice, FirstEnergy shall be entitled to withhold payment of the disputed portion provided that FirstEnergy gives notice to Contractor of such disputed portion, together with reasons for such dispute, within the period specified for payment in Section 5.2(A)(2)(ii). FirstEnergy shall also pay the undisputed portion of the invoice within such period. In addition to disputed amounts in an invoice, FirstEnergy may withhold payment of all or any portion of any invoice, in the amount reasonably necessary to protect FirstEnergy in the event that: (A) a third party claim has been asserted for which Contractor has an indemnity obligation under Section 16.1 unless Contractor is satisfying the obligation; (B) Contractor has failed to make a payment as and when due to a Subcontractor or supplier for materials, labor or equipment; or (C) Contractor has failed to supply any affidavit, release or waiver of lien which is required pursuant to this Agreement. If any monies are so withheld, they shall be paid only when the cause of such withholding has been eliminated. Moreover, if any monies are so withheld, FirstEnergy shall not be responsible for any interest payment to Contractor. In the event any controversy, claim or dispute between the Parties relating to non-payment of any disputed amounts, including any Change Order, Contractor shall, unless otherwise agreed in writing by the Parties or terminated by FirstEnergy pursuant to Article 15, continue with the Project, and FirstEnergy shall continue to pay all undisputed amounts owed to Contractor under the Agreement.

5.5Retainage for Final Subproject. FirstEnergy shall be entitled to retain a portion of the Fee payable with respect to the final Subproject of the Project, in an amount sufficient to provide for any difference between the amount of Fees paid to Contractor during the Project (including any other Subproject) and the amount finally determined to be due. The retainage shall be released upon Final Completion and Final Document Delivery of the final Subproject of the Project. No interest will be payable by FirstEnergy on the amount of the retainage prior to payment thereof. Contractor may provide a letter of credit with mutually satisfactory terms, or other payment security acceptable to FirstEnergy in lieu of any retainage provided under this Section 5.5.

(A)Direct Pay Permit. A Direct Payment Permit authorizing the purchase of tangible personal property without payment of the tax at the time of purchase has been issued to FirstEnergy Generation Corp. The Permit Number for FirstEnergy Generation Corp. is 98-002723. FirstEnergy agrees to maintain adequate records of all purchases and pay tax on the taxable items directly to the Treasurer of the State of Ohio. The Direct Payment Permit does not apply to construction contracts under which the contractor is considered to be the consumer and liable for the tax on materials incorporated into a structure or improvement as provided in Section 5739.01 (B) Ohio Revised Code.

(B)Tax Exempt Project - FirstEnergy states that the overall Project is defined by Ohio Revised Code § 5709.20 and is anticipated to be exempt from Ohio Sales and Use Taxes under Ohio Revised Code § 5709.25. All parties to this contract will work together to minimize FirstEnergy’s sale and use tax liability by taking the following actions:

(1)Contractor - The Contractor will register for Ohio sales tax purposes as a vendor, thereby gaining the ability to issue Ohio “Resale Exemption Certificates” when purchasing items to be incorporated into the “facility”, and sold to FirstEnergy.

(2) Contractor retains the sales and use tax liability to report or pay Ohio sales and use taxes on its purchase, lease or rental of office supplies, construction tools and equipment used in performing the work. Taxes required to be paid related to the foregoing shall be reimbursed as a reimbursable cost pursuant to Section 5.1.

(3)FirstEnergy Generation Corp. either has or will apply for an Ohio “Pollution Control Facilities” exemption certificate as provided by Ohio Revised Code § 5709.25.

(4)In the event that FirstEnergy is unable to obtain the "pollution control facility" exemption, or in the event that Contractor is prohibited by Ohio governmental authorities from taking the actions provided in subsection (i) above, FirstEnergy acknowledges that Ohio sales and use taxes as it relates to the work performed under this Agreement are reimbursable as a reimbursable cost pursuant to Section 5.1(A).

Any questions as to the application should be submitted to:

EXECUTION COPY

(B)Guaranteed Final Completion Dates. Contractor shall achieve Final Completion and Final Document Delivery in accordance with the dates set forth in the Project Schedule to be developed and delivered pursuant to Section 6.4 (“Guaranteed Final Completion Dates”). The parties anticipate that the Project Schedule for the Subproject associated with Generating Units 1 through 4 of the Sammis Plant will designate a separate Guaranteed Final Completion Date for each AQC Unit within that Subproject. At the election of FirstEnergy, the Project Schedule for the Subproject associated with Sammis Plant Generating Units 5, 6, and 7 will designate either a single Guaranteed Final Completion Date for all AQC Units within that Subproject, or separate Guaranteed Final Completion Dates for each AQC Unit within that Subproject (with an adequate time allowed between the Scheduled Mechanical Completion Dates established for Generating Units 5, 6 and 7).

(C)Notice of Final Completion. When Contractor believes it has achieved Final Completion, Contractor shall deliver to FirstEnergy a written notice and certification thereof (“Final Completion Certificate,” which shall be in the form of Exhibit 6.3(C)), certifying to FirstEnergy that all of the requirements for Final Completion have occurred. The Final Completion Certificate shall be accompanied by all other supporting documentation as may be required to establish that the requirements for Final Completion have been met.

(D)FirstEnergy Acceptance of Final Completion. FirstEnergy shall notify Contractor whether it accepts or rejects the Final Completion Certificate within thirty (30) days following receipt of such notice. If FirstEnergy agrees that Final Completion has occurred, FirstEnergy shall deliver to Contractor a written acceptance of Final Completion. If FirstEnergy does not agree that Final Completion has occurred, then FirstEnergy shall state the basis for its rejection in reasonable detail in the written notice provided to Contractor. In the event that Final Completion has not been achieved, Contractor shall promptly take such action or perform such additional work as will achieve Final Completion and shall issue to FirstEnergy another Final Completion Certificate. Such procedure shall be repeated as necessary until Final Completion is achieved.

6.4Project Schedule.

(A)Project Schedule; Critical Path Schedule. With respect to each Subproject, during the Development Phase, Contractor shall prepare and submit to FirstEnergy for its review a detailed Project Schedule, and critical path method schedules for the Subprojects and for the Project as a whole, which shall be submitted in native electronic and paper form (“Critical Path Schedule”). The Project Schedule and Critical Path Schedule shall govern Contractor’s performance of the Subproject. The Contractor shall use its best efforts to cause the Project Schedule and Critical Path Schedule to be consistent with the timetables, goals and objectives of FirstEnergy, including achievement of the compliance dates established in the NSR Consent Decree. The Critical Path Schedule shall represent Contractor’s best judgment as to how it shall complete the Subproject in compliance with the Project Schedule and the Guaranteed Final Completion Date. The Critical Path Schedule shall be a detailed graphic representation of all significant aspects of the Subproject, showing Contractor’s plans for performance of the Subproject. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Critical Path Schedule shall:

(1)include separate activities for each portion of the Subproject performed by Contractor, its Subcontractors, or FE Vendors, along with non-physical activities related to the Subproject, such as the submittal and approval of shop drawings, product data, samples, Drawings and Specifications, procurement of Materials, inspection and testing of the Subproject, and obtaining Permits;

(2)be detailed such that no activity is longer than fifteen (15) days;

(3)show the duration, early/late start dates, early/late finish dates and available float for each activity. Float time shall not belong to either Party, and shall be allocated as needed during the progress of the Subproject;

EXECUTION COPY

(6)for cost-reimbursable work, show the projected manpower to be used per activity, whether provided by Contractor or its Subcontractors, showing the number of personnel, the positions and titles of such personnel and a general description of the work being performed;

(7)show the Scheduled Mechanical Completion Date, the Guaranteed Final Completion Date and all other milestones listed in the Project Schedule;

(8)include allocations of resources among the scheduled activities; and

(9)reflect logical relationships between activities, reasonable durations and adequate float time to account for existing conditions and foreseeable complications.

The Critical Path Schedule shall be the schedule which Contractor shall use in planning, organizing, directing, coordinating, performing and executing the Subproject (including all activities of Subcontractors and FE Vendors) and shall be the basis for evaluating progress of the Subproject.

(B)FirstEnergy Review of Schedule. FirstEnergy may review the Critical Path Schedule for general conformance with this Agreement. If FirstEnergy determines at any time that the Critical Path Schedule does not conform with this Agreement or the Project Schedule in any respect, Contractor shall promptly revise and resubmit the Critical Path Schedule to FirstEnergy. FirstEnergy’s review of the Critical Path Schedule shall not relieve Contractor of any obligations for the performance of the Project, change any Project Schedule milestone or any Guaranteed Final Completion Date, or be construed to establish the reasonableness of the Critical Path Schedule. FirstEnergy may reasonably rely upon the Critical Path Schedule in FirstEnergy’s dealings with other contractors operating at the Site or any other Person.

(C)Updated Critical Path Schedule. Contractor shall update the Critical Path Schedule monthly and at such other intervals as may be requested by FirstEnergy by showing the actual progress of the Subproject; however, Contractor may not modify the Critical Path Schedule, including any of the Guaranteed Final Completion Dates or any Project Schedule milestone, without obtaining FirstEnergy’s prior written approval. Any modifications to any of the Guaranteed Final Completion Dates or Project Schedule milestones shall be only by Change Order. Contractor shall provide FirstEnergy monthly (weekly during the Generating Unit outage) with a current updated Critical Path Schedule in both hard copy and electronic form (“Updated Critical Path Schedule”) reflecting the actual progress of work against the Critical Path Schedule and Project Schedule. The Updated Critical Path Schedule shall be in the same detail and form as required by the Critical Path Schedule.

6.5Schedule Liquidated Damages. With respect to each Subproject (or any AQC Unit, as applicable), if Final Completion occurs after the Guaranteed Final Completion Date and/or if Final Document Delivery occurs after the date of Final Completion (or in the case of a Subproject making use of the Powerspan ECO technology, if Mechanical Completion occurs after the Scheduled Mechanical Completion Date), and Contractor is responsible for the payment of schedule liquidated damages for such delay in accordance with Exhibit 6.5, then Contractor shall pay such amounts to FirstEnergy in accordance with Exhibit 6.5 until Final Completion (or Mechanical Completion, in the case of a Subproject making use of the Powerspan ECO technology), and Final Document Delivery, as applicable (the “Schedule Liquidated Damages”). When any Schedule Liquidated Damages payment is owed under this Section 6.5 , FirstEnergy shall calculate such Schedule Liquidated Damages payment and invoice Contractor for such amount. Payment of such Schedule Liquidated Damages shall be due in arrears ten (10) days after delivery of such invoice.

(D)If the Parties agree that Contractor is entitled to a Change Order but cannot agree on such effect of the proposed Change Order on the Changed Criteria within ten (10) Business Days of FirstEnergy’s receipt of Contractor’s written notice and proposed Change Order and all other required information, or if FirstEnergy desires that the changed work set forth in the proposed Change Order commence immediately, FirstEnergy may, by issuance of an unilateral Change Order in the form attached hereto as Exhibit 8.2, require Contractor to commence and perform such changed work (which Contractor shall be compensated for in accordance with Section 5.1), with the effect of such unilateral Change Order on the Changed Criteria (or if the Parties agree on the effect of such Change Order for some but not all of the Changed Criteria, the impact of each of the components of the Changed Criteria on which the Parties disagree) to be determined as soon as possible. Pending resolution of the dispute, Contractor shall perform the work as specified in such unilateral Change Order and FirstEnergy shall continue to pay Contractor in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and any previous agreed Change Orders. When FirstEnergy and Contractor agree on the effect of such unilateral Change Order on all of the Changed Criteria, such agreement shall be recorded by execution by the Parties of a Change Order in the form attached hereto as Exhibit 8.2, which shall supercede the unilateral Change Order previously issued and relating to such changed work.

ARTICLE 9 - FORCE MAJEURE; FIRSTENERGY DELAY; RECOVERY

9.1Force Majeure.

(A)Duties of the Affected Party. Within three (3) Business Days after becoming aware of the occurrence of a Force Majeure Event, the affected Party shall (i) provide written notice to the other Party containing full particulars of such Force Majeure Event (including the anticipated length of time that the delay may persist, the cause or causes of the delay, all measures taken or to be taken by the affected Party to prevent or minimize the delay, the schedule by which the affected Party proposes to implement those measures, and the affected Party’s rationale for attributing a delay to a Force Majeure Event), including the requirements set forth in Section 8.5, together with the obligations affected thereby, and (ii) use reasonable commercial efforts to mitigate the effect of such delay or failure and to remedy the Force Majeure Event. The affected Party shall resume performance of its obligations affected by the Force Majeure Event as soon as practicable after the conclusion of the Force Majeure Event, and shall give prompt written notice to the other Party of all significant facts and events concerning the affected Party’s efforts to perform and of the conclusion of the Force Majeure Event. Force Majeure Events shall not excuse any delay or failure to make payments when due and Contractor shall continue to be paid under this Agreement notwithstanding any Force Majeure Event. For purposes of this Section 9.1(A), Contractor shall be deemed to know of any circumstance of which Contractor or its Subcontractors knew or by the exercise of due diligence should have known.

(B)Effect of Force Majeure Event. Except as otherwise provided in Section 9.1, the affected Party’s obligations under this Agreement shall be suspended insofar as performance of such obligations is rendered impossible by a Force Majeure Event. Any delay or failure by the affected Party in the performance of any of its obligations under this Agreement on account of a Force Majeure Event shall not constitute a default under this Agreement during the period the Force Majeure Event is in effect to the extent such delay or failure is caused by the Force Majeure Event; provided that the affected Party shall have complied with its obligations under Section 9.1(A) as an express condition precedent; and provided that delay of Contractor in achieving Final Completion and Final Document Delivery with respect to any Subproject shall only be excused, and the Guaranteed Final Completion Date shall be extended, by one day for each day of delay during which (i) such Force Majeure Event made it impossible for Contractor to carry out all activities relating to such Subproject which are necessary to the fulfillment of Final Completion of such Subproject by the Guaranteed Final Completion Date and caused a delay to the critical path of the Critical Path Schedule; (ii) Contractor could not practicably recover by the use of due diligence and all reasonable commercial efforts, including the expenditure of moneys, overtime work, and work over weekends and holidays; and (iii) such Force Majeure Event was the direct and proximate cause of Contractor’s failure to meet such Guaranteed Final Completion Date. If Contractor seeks an extension of time to a Guaranteed Final Completion Date, it shall comply with Sections 8.2(B) and 8.5(B).

Contractor shall do the following after the determination by FirstEnergy of the requirement for a Recovery Schedule:

(A)Within five (5) calendar days of such determination, Contractor shall prepare the Recovery Schedule and submit it to FirstEnergy for its review and approval. The Recovery Schedule shall represent Contractor’s best judgment as to how the Subproject may regain compliance with the Critical Path Schedule. Contractor shall perform the Subproject in accordance with the Recovery Schedule.

(B)In preparing and executing the Recovery Schedule, Contractor shall take all steps necessary to regain compliance with the Critical Path Schedule, including additional shifts, additional manpower, overtime, providing additional equipment, and resequencing of activities.

(C)Contractor shall have the right to a Change Order under Section 8.2 for implementation of a Recovery Schedule which is required as a result of Force Majeure Event or a FirstEnergy-Caused Delay as described in Section 9.2.

12.7Security for Vendor Termination Costs. During the Development Phase of any Subproject which will be performed as a Wrap Arrangement, Contractor will identify to FirstEnergy any contract with an OEM for such Subproject which will require payment to the vendor of cancellation or termination fees or similar costs (“Vendor Termination Costs”) in the event such contract is terminated by Contractor prior to completion of performance, and a description (including the dollar amount and the circumstances of payment) of the Vendor Termination Costs for such vendor contract. Provided that FirstEnergy has approved such vendor contract and the identified Vendor Termination Costs associated therewith prior to the Commencement Date for such Subproject, FirstEnergy will provide to Contractor a Bond, or similar form of security acceptable to Contractor as security for reimbursement of such Vendor Termination Costs, but only at such time(s) and in such amount(s) as Contractor would then be exposed to an obligation to pay such Vendor Termination Costs if the vendor agreement were terminated at that time. For purposes of clarity, Vendor Termination Costs shall not include any amount attributable to a failure of performance or payment by Contractor (other than at the direction of FirstEnergy or other than to the extent such is directly due to FirstEnergy’s failure to timely pay any amounts that are due and outstanding under this Agreement), any amount corresponding to a payment which has been paid by FirstEnergy to Contractor, or any amount not specifically approved by FirstEnergy as a Vendor Termination Cost prior to the Commencement Date of the Subproject (or after the Commencement Date pursuant to a Change Order in accordance with Article 8).

FirstEnergy shall be responsible for paying in accordance with Exhibit 5.1 all costs of correcting such work, including additional testing and inspections and compensation for consultants retained by FirstEnergy and expenses made necessary thereby. For purposes of clarity, commencement of the Warranty Period shall not preclude Contractor’s right to be paid in accordance with Exhibit 5.1 for any work performed thereafter to fulfill any of its then remaining obligations, other than with respect to performance of work required to satisfy its Warranty obligations.

(B)Correction of Work During the Warranty Period.

(1)If, during the Warranty Period, FirstEnergy discovers any nonconformance with the warranties set forth in Section 13.1 (“Warranty Non-Conformance”), FirstEnergy shall provide Contractor with written notice detailing such Warranty Non-Conformance as soon as practicable following such discovery but in no event later than the end of the Warranty Period. Such notice shall be in accordance with warranty procedures (as will be mutually agreed upon between FirstEnergy and Contractor during the Development Phase).

14.2Waiver of Lien Rights. To the extent permitted by law, Contractor, for itself and anyone else acting or claiming through or under it, does hereby expressly waive and relinquish all right to file a mechanics' or materialmen's lien, or notice of intention to file any lien, and agrees that no mechanics', materialmen’s, or similar lien shall be filed or maintained against any property where the Project is to be performed, or any interest of FirstEnergy in such property, by or in the name of Contractor or any Subcontractor, materialman or laborer acting or claiming through or under Contractor for work performed or materials furnished in connection with this Agreement. Contractor further agrees that it will defend, indemnify and hold FirstEnergy harmless from and against any and all loss, cost, expense (including attorneys' fees and costs of defense), liability, claim or demand arising from any mechanics', materialmen's or similar lien of Contractor or any Subcontractor, sub-subcontractor, materialman, supplier or laborer acting or claiming through or under Contractor for work performed or materials furnished in connection with this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Contractor shall not be required to so waive its rights or to cause Subcontractors to so waive their rights to file any mechanics' or materialmen's lien with respect to any Subproject for which FirstEnergy assigns its rights and obligations under this Agreement to another entity, , and in such event Contractor’s obligation to defend, indemnify and hold harmless FirstEnergy against any such liens shall apply only to the extent that Contractor has been timely paid all amounts due under the Agreement.

14.3No-Lien Agreement. Contractor shall execute a Waiver of Liens Agreement consistent with the foregoing provisions of this Article 14, and acceptable in form and substance to FirstEnergy, in recordable form, which FirstEnergy may file in the jurisdiction(s) in which the Project will be performed.

14.4Right to Withhold. FirstEnergy may require evidence reasonably satisfactory to it from Contractor that all work in progress, work done or delivered, or service performed, for which FirstEnergy has made a payment, are free and clear of mechanic's, materialmen’s, and other liens, attachments, claims, demands, charges or other similar encumbrances. If evidence of mechanic’s, materialmen’s, and other liens, attachments, claims, demands, charges or other similar encumbrances is discovered, FirstEnergy may withhold payments due Contractor in amount sufficient to cover any such potential claim. Prior to invoicing final payment, Contractor and its Subcontractors shall sign a release of liens in a form prepared by FirstEnergy and furnished to Contractor. As applicable pursuant to Section 14.2, Contractor shall, within thirty (30) days, cause to be discharged and terminate any mechanics’ or materialmen’s lien filed by any of its Subcontractors, sub-subcontractors, materialman, laborers or suppliers, or shall bond against the same at its own cost and expense with a bond satisfactory to FirstEnergy.

14.5Subcontracts. Every subcontract for any portion of the Project shall contain an undertaking by the Subcontractor similar in effect to this Article 14. It is intended by the Parties that Contractor's agreement to waive and relinquish lien rights as above provided shall be effective only in those jurisdictions which permit such agreement to be made. The fact that some jurisdictions in which work will be performed do not permit such waiver shall not affect the enforceability of this waiver in those jurisdictions that do permit such waivers. The above obligations of the Contractor and/or Subcontractors are supplementary to and not a substitute for rights of FirstEnergy, its subsidiaries and affiliates, under the provisions of the Mechanics Lien Laws of the jurisdiction in which the work is being performed.

(B)Additional Rights of FirstEnergy Upon Termination. In the event that FirstEnergy terminates this Agreement in whole or in part for default, then FirstEnergy may, at its sole option, (i) enter onto the Site and take possession, for the purpose of completing the Project, all of the equipment, Materials, tools, supplies, documents, and information of Contractor (subject to reasonable arrangement for costs associated therewith to the extent not already paid), (ii) take assignment of any or all of the Subcontracts, (iii) either itself or through others complete the Project by the most cost efficient means reasonably practicable, and/or (iv) recover from Contractor any direct damages suffered by FirstEnergy as a result of such default.

(C)Erroneous Termination for Default. If any termination for default by FirstEnergy is found to be not in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement or is otherwise deemed to be unenforceable, then such termination for default shall be deemed to be a termination for convenience as provided in Section 15.2.

In the event Contractor so terminates this Agreement, such termination shall be treated as a termination pursuant to Section 15.2.

If Contractor is unable to secure such a license within areasonable time, Contractor shall, at its own expense and without impairing performance requirements, either replace the affected work, in whole or part, with non-infringing components or parts or modify the same so that they become non-infringing. FirstEnergy shall indemnify Contractor Indemnified Parties in the same terms as this Section 16.3, mutatis mutandis, with respect to designs, equipment and processes required by FirstEnergy to be used and/or incorporated in connection with the Project.

If FirstEnergy elects to exercise its right to remove and discharge, then Contractor shall be liable to FirstEnergy for all Losses incurred by FirstEnergy in discharging or removing same.

18.2Liquidated Damages Not Penalty. It is expressly agreed that Liquidated Damages payable under this Agreement do not constitute a penalty and that the Parties, having negotiated in good faith for such specific Liquidated Damages and having agreed that the amount of such Liquidated Damages is reasonable in light of the anticipated harm caused by the breach related thereto and the difficulties of proof of loss and inconvenience or nonfeasibility of obtaining any adequate remedy, are estopped from contesting the validity or enforceability of such Liquidated Damages. The Parties acknowledge that the availability of Liquidated Damages was an inducement to FirstEnergy’s agreement to waive consequential damages, and in the event any Liquidated Damages are held to be unenforceable, Contractor specifically agrees to mutually and in good faith negotiate an alternative financial settlement with FirstEnergy designed to compensate FirstEnergy in amounts similar to the amounts that FirstEnergy would have been entitled to receive had such Liquidated Damages not been held to be unenforceable.

The failure of any Party to require performance of any provision hereof shall in no manner affect such Party's right at a later time to enforce the same.

19.2Parties in Interest. Nothing in this Agreement is intended to confer any rights or remedies under or by reason of this Agreement on any Persons other than the Parties hereto, nor is anything in this Agreement intended to relieve or discharge the obligations or liabilities of any third Person or give any third Person any right of subrogation or action over or against any Party hereto.

(C)Assignment to Financing Assignee; Assumption by Financing Assignee. With respect to any one or more Subproject(s) for which FirstEnergy pursues project financing, prior to the Commencement Date of such Subproject(s), FirstEnergy may assign its rights under this Agreement with respect to each such Subproject to a project company in connection with effecting such financing (such project company, hereinafter a “Financing Assignee”). Prior to such assignment, FirstEnergy shall on a timely basis keep Contractor informed as to the progress of any efforts to obtain such financing and shall similarly provide Contractor with copies of Financing Documents or portions thereof relevant to Contractor’s interest (and allow Contractor an opportunity to review and comment thereon). An assignment in connection with such a financing shall only be effective if prior to such assignment, the Financing Assignee shall have entered into either: (i) binding financing arrangements to provide sufficient funds for the construction of the assigned Subproject and fulfillment of its payment obligations to Contractor with respect to such Subproject which Financing Assignee is entitled to make the first drawdown; or (ii) if the Financing Assignee has obtained financing commitments of less than the total cost of the assigned Subproject and amounts necessary to fulfill its payment obligations to Contractor with respect to such Subproject, mutually acceptable agreements with Contractor concerning appropriate security for payment for the assigned Subproject and release of FirstEnergy’s obligations hereunder with respect to such Subproject (except as noted below). In addition, the Financing Assignee shall also be required to have arranged to provide any Bond required under Section 12.6. Upon Contractor being specifically notified in writing that FirstEnergy has so assigned any such Subproject and that such Financing Assignee has succeeded to FirstEnergy’s interests and assumed the obligations of FirstEnergy thereunder, Contractor shall accept the Financing Assignee in place of FirstEnergy for all purposes under or in connection with this Agreement in respect of such assigned Subproject for the remainder of its term, provided the foregoing conditions precedent to such assignment have been satisfied. In connection with such assignment, Contractor shall provide assignments and consents, acknowledgments, estoppel certificates, legal opinions and such other closing documents as are customary in such transactions and in form reasonably acceptable to Contractor. Except with respect to the assigned Subproject, no Financing Assignee shall otherwise be liable for payment, performance, or observation of any of the obligations or duties of FirstEnergy. No assignment permitted hereunder shall release FirstEnergy from any of the limitations and releases from liability and other protections enjoyed by Contractor under this Agreement. Once such assignment if effected, there shall be no modification to the Financing Documents that operates to reduce the funds available to pay amounts due to Contractor from the Financing Assignee or to increase Contractor’s obligation(s) under this Agreement without the prior consent of Contractor.

(D)Information for Financing Parties. Contractor shall provide such documents and other technical assistance in its possession, or which can reasonably be prepared, as FirstEnergy may reasonably request in connection with obtaining financing for the Project (or any Subproject(s)). During the performance of the work, Contractor shall make available to FirstEnergy, any Financing Assignee, and its financing parties (provided, such parties have executed non-disclosure agreements similar in substance to the provisions of Article 17 of the Agreement) information relating to the status of the work including information relating to the design, engineering, construction and testing of the Project and such other matters as FirstEnergy, the Financing Assignee, or its financing parties may reasonably request.

(E)Right to Inspect. The financing parties and their engineers and consultants shall have the right to participate in all inspections conducted by the Financing Assignee under the assigned Subproject(s) and to attend all Performance Tests of the assigned Subproject(s). FirstEnergy and/or the Financing Assignee shall cause all such persons to observe Contractor’s security and safety regulations at all applicable locations and to refrain from interfering with Contractor’s performance of the work.

(F)Contractor’s Cooperation. Contractor agrees to cooperate with FirstEnergy in FirstEnergy’s negotiation and execution of the Financing Documents, including appropriate assignments of FirstEnergy’s rights under this Agreement to financing parties and reasonable consents or similar agreements related to this Agreement requested by financing parties. For purposes of this cooperation, any assignment, consent or similar agreement that would in any material respect increase Contractor's costs or risks under this Agreement without appropriate additional compensation to Contractor under this Agreement will not be considered to be reasonable or appropriate.

19.4Governing Law; Dispute Resolution. This Agreement shall be governed by and interpreted in accordance with the laws of the State of Ohio. The Parties expressly exclude the applicability of the United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods, if the same would otherwise apply here.

ATTACHMENT A - WORK SCOPE

1.0 PLANT/UNIT DESCRIPTIONS

1.1   The 2,220 MW Sammis Plant is located in Stratton, OH and is made up of 7 generating units that draw cooling water from the Ohio River.

1.1.1   Units 1-4 are 180 MW single reheat, sub-critical drum units placed in service in the years 1959 though 1962 respectively. The Foster Wheeler P.C. boilers generate 1,250,000 lbs./hr. of 2450 psig, 1050°F main steam (1000°F reheat).

1.1.2   Unit 5 is a 300 MW sub-critical, once-through unit placed in service in 1967. The Babcock and Wilcox coal fired, single reheat boiler generates 2,355,000 lbs./hr. of 2625 psig, 1005°F main steam (1005°F reheat).

1.1.3   Units 6 and 7 are 600 MW super-critical, once-through units placed in service in 1969 and 1971 respectively. The Babcock and Wilcox coal fired, single reheat boilers generate 4,628,000 lbs./hr. of 3785 psig, 1005°F main steam and 3,900,000 lbs/hr. of 654 psig, 1005°F reheat steam.

2.0 PROJECT (SUBPROJECT) DESCRIPTION

2.1   The Project will be made up of two Subprojects.

2.2   In Subproject 1, each of the Sammis units 1 through 4 will be retrofit with dry scrubber technology that would provide a 60% SO₂ reduction.

2.2.1   An initial review of the site seems to indicate the best approach may be to install the first system on Unit 4 and continue building north finishing with Unit 1.

2.2.2   Due to operational and performance concerns with the dry technology, FirstEnergy would like to operate the first system for approximately 6 to 9 months prior to beginning construction on the second unit, thereby providing an opportunity to make changes based on the operating experience gained during that period.

2.2.3   Present outage plans for the Sammis Plant call for Unit 4 to be off line in early 2007 with the other units following over the subsequent two years.

2.2.4   The reagent handling facilities for the Units 1-4 dry scrubbing technology will be common. However, those facilities do not necessarily have to be ready for use at the time the initial dry system is placed in service on Unit 4. Since the initial purpose of the Unit 4 system will be to provide some operational experience with dry scrubbing at the Sammis Plant, it may be decided to operate the dry system for short test periods using stored reagent brought in by truck

2.3   In Subproject 2, each of the Sammis units 5 through 7 will be retrofit with wet scrubber technology.

2.3.1   The projected schedule requires the AE-Constructor to support the development of the project design basis, work scope, and detailed cost estimate during 2005. The intent is to be prepared to bid FGD OEM services, if required, by the fourth quarter of 2005. Final Target Construction Cost estimates will follow pending availability of OEM information. Specific targets for finalizing cost and schedule commitments for each subproject will be established during the development period.

The Professional Costs portion for this Project will include the Engineering and Graphics Labor (including Specialist Labor), Other Professional Labor, Professional Construction Labor, the Engineering Technology Charge, G&A, Engineering Subcontracts and Travel and Living Expenses as defined herein. For clarity, Engineering and Graphics Labor and Other Professional Labor performed by BAPC Ohio shall be compensated in the same manner as the Contractor, including rates, Engineering Technology Charge, G&A, and Fee.

All Engineering/Graphics Labor and Other Professional Labor will be performed by resources located in the Unites States and billed per Exhibit 5.1-10 ("Rate Sheet for Engineering/Graphics Labor and Other Professional Labor") unless otherwise agreed between FirstEnergy and Contractor. If requested by FirstEnergy, the Contractor will fully cooperate with FirstEnergy to utilize Contractor’s offshore or overseas Engineering/Graphics Labor and Other Professional Labor and FirstEnergy will be billed by Contractor at rates appropriate for that country of origin.

Two commercial options exist for this work. Commercial option number 1 is the “FE Vendor Arrangement”. Commercial option number 2 is the “Wrap Arrangement”.

The following is to be applied to the commercial options number 1 and number 2 as described herein, for conventional wet or dry FGD technology, including in duct application of dry FGD technology.

The "Target Construction Cost" of each Subproject, as defined during the Development Phase, will include the Professional Construction Labor (and associated G&A and Engineering Technology Charge), Purchased Equipment and Materials, Fabricated Items, Freight, Craft Labor, Consumables, Major Equipment & Tool Rental, Temporary Facilities, Subcontractors, builder risk insurance, bonds, taxes and any other expenditures deemed to be appropriate by FirstEnergy (as mutually agreed during the Development Phase of the Subproject). The “Target Construction Cost” excludes Professional Engineering and Graphics labor and Other Professional labor (with the associated Engineering Technology Charge and G&A), travel and living expenses, and Engineering Subcontracts. Each Subproject or combination thereof, will have a “Target Construction Cost” established once sufficient engineering and procurement is completed. The "Target Construction Cost" will include all estimated costs for the Subproject as well as all costs mutually agreed upon between the Contractor and FirstEnergy, and authorized by FirstEnergy using partial Notices To Proceed, up to the time the “Target Construction Cost” is established. The “Target Construction Cost” shall be exclusive of any Fee.

For Powerspan ECO ®, the “Target Construction Cost” will be established after sufficient design to establish quantities and construction plans, selection of sub-suppliers and resolution of any issues relating to the technology are made available by Powerspan.

Each Subproject will be performed on a cost reimbursable basis plus a Fee, with Contractor to be paid for all work performed by Contractor to meet its obligations under the Agreement, except as provided therein [e.g. warranty]. The Fee will be adjusted based upon the Incentive Scorecard results as described below, and further adjustments to the Fee payment will be made based upon the Subproject(s) over and underruns of the “Target Construction Costs” outside of the agreed to Deadband. Fee payments for the “Target Construction Cost” will be based on construction progress as compared to the construction schedule (see Exhibit 5.1. -1 (A), “Fee Adjustment”).

The verification of the “Target Construction Cost” will be based upon an “open book” review and audit of the estimated costs and any expenditures to date. At FirstEnergy’s option, a mutually agreed to third party may be used to review and evaluate the “Target Construction Cost” as provided by the Contractor.

EXHIBIT 5.1

The Contractor’s Fee is profit only and does not contain any General & Administrative overheads. The Contractorwill place [*****%] of the ******at risk as further described herein. ****** Rates will be applied as stated herein (See “Pricing Rates and Summary Sheets”). A [******] Rate will be applied as stated herein to the Engineering and Graphics Labor, Other Professional Labor and Specialist rates, and a separate [******] Rate will be applied to Professional Construction Labor rates.

AQC SYSTEMS, PROJECT FEE AND FEE ADJUSTMENT

Except for Change Orders that increase or decrease the Target Construction Cost, once a Subproject’s “Target Construction Cost” is established during the Development Phase, that portion of the Fee will be fixed and will only be adjusted by two (2) mechanisms as follows:

1. INCENTIVE SCORECARDS

An outline of the Contractor Sample Scorecards, which are used to adjust the Contractor's ******, are as shown in Exhibit 5.1-2 “Sample Scorecards”.

Two Scorecards exist. A Scorecard exists for Engineering & Planning, and a separate Scorecard exists for Professional Construction Labor.

The Engineering & Planning Scorecard is used to adjust the ****** associated with the Engineering/Graphics Labor and Other Professional Labor. The Incentive Scorecard includes the following categories:

· Schedule

· Project Administration

· Quality

· Innovation

The Professional Construction Scorecard is used to adjust the ****** associated with the Professional Construction Labor. The Incentive Scorecard includes the following categories:

· Schedule

· Safety

· Quality

· Project Administration

· Cashflow

Each individual category shall have an associated weighted value, which total 100% for each Scorecard. On a periodic basis, but not longer than every six (6) months, and, as agreed to by both parties, a rating will be established for each category on the Scorecards using a combination of subjective and objective criteria as defined on the Scorecards. Those scores will be compared to the “Threshold”, “Target” and “Maximum” values. A percentage multiplier corresponding to the weighted average score will be applied to the ****** paid or due to the Contractor for the period being rated. Reconciliation for any over payment or underpayment will be made at that point in time for the rating period.

Some portions of the Sample Scorecards shown in Exhibit 5.1-2 are not currently defined. Scorecards will be finalized and agreed to by both parties during the Project Development Phase.

2. TARGET CONSTRUCTION COST

A “Target Construction Cost” will be established for each Subproject. A Deadband above and below the “Target Construction Cost” has been established within which no adjustment will be made to the AE Constructor’s Fee. The ****** will be adjusted for Final Construction Cost above or below [*****%] deadband in accordance with Exhibit 5.1-3, “Fee Table”. If the Final Construction Cost exceeds the “Target Construction Cost”, the Contractor's ****** will be reduced on a preset percentage of every dollar above the Deadband upper limit ("Contractor Fee Reduction Percentage"). Likewise, if the Final Construction Cost is less than the “Target Construction Cost”, the Contractor's ****** will be increased according to a preset percentage of every dollar below the Deadband lower limit ("Contractor Fee Increase Percentage") as shown in Exhibit 5.1-3, “****** Table”.

EXHIBIT 5.1

Examples:

The examples shown below are for both the “Wrap Arrangement” and “FE Vendor Arrangement” where the Fee percent would be changed to be in agreement with the set value described herein.

If the Final Construction Cost exceeds the “Target Construction Cost”, but the Final Construction Cost is within the upper limit of the Deadband (within [*****%] of the Target Construction Cost, or less than [*****%] of the Target Construction Cost), then the Fee will not be adjusted based upon this adjustment mechanism.

If the Final Construction Cost exceeds the “Target Construction Cost”, and the Final Construction Cost is above the upper limit of the Deadband and greater than [*****%] of the “Target Construction Cost” then the Fee will be adjusted based on the Final Construction Cost. Therefore, if the Final Construction Cost is [*****%] higher than the “Target Construction Cost,” or [*****%] of the “Target Construction Cost”, then the final Fee in this example would be reduced by [*****%] of the Target Construction Cost in the “FE Vendor Arrangement” (or for the “Wrap Arrangement”, the Fee would be reduced by [*****%]).

If the Final Construction Cost is below the “Target Construction Cost”, but the Final Construction Cost is within the lower limit of the Deadband (within [*****%] of the Target Construction Cost, or greater than [*****%] of the “Target Construction Cost”), then the Fee will not be adjusted based on this adjustment mechanism.

If the Final Construction Cost is below the “Target Construction Cost”, and the Final Construction Cost is below the lower limit of the Deadband (less than [*****%] of the “Target Construction Cost”), then the Fee will be adjusted based on the Final Construction Cost. Therefore, if the Final Construction Cost is [*****%] lower than the Target Construction Cost or [*****%] of the Target Construction Cost, then the final Fee in this example would be increased by [*****%] of the Target Construction Cost in the “FE Vendor Arrangement” (or for the “Wrap Arrangement,” the Fee would be increased by [*****%]).

Approved Changes to the Work Scope (Attachment “A”) may occur during the duration of the Subprojects. Any changes to the Work Scope must be by Change Order, as provided in the Agreement. When the Subproject Work Scope is modified, FirstEnergy will work with the Contractor to determine the cost increase or decrease associated with the Work Scope change and include the cost increase or decrease in the "Target Construction Costs" by modifying the "Target Construction Cost" by the estimated amount. Fees of the same percentages used to establish the original "Target Construction Cost" Fee will be applied to the Work Scope change.

While the Contractor is executing the Work Scope at a FirstEnergy plant, FirstEnergy also may request the Contractor perform additional work outside of the Work Scope at the respective FirstEnergy plant. In such case, FirstEnergy and the Contractor shall mutually agree to the scope of the additional work to be performed. FirstEnergy shall pay for the additional work in the same manner as provided in this Contract. However, such additional work shall be its own Subproject and the Fee (equal to the percentage value for the “Target Construction Cost” in accordance with the “FE Vendor Arrangement”) associated with those costs will not be subject to either the Scorecard or "Target Construction Cost" adjustments provided herein.

I. PRICING FOR ENGINEERING, PROFESSONAL SERVICES, MATERIALS, FABRICATED ITEMS, AND OTHER PRICING INFORMATION

Engineering and Graphics Labor includes Project Management, Project Engineering (mechanical, electrical, civil, controls, I&C, performance, and other engineering disciplines), Drafting Specialists, and other engineering and design personnel required for the Subproject. The labor costs shall be determined by multiplying the direct time charging personnel hours assignable to the Subproject by the current applicable billing rate as stated herein (Exhibit 5.1-10, “Rate Sheet for Engineering/Graphics Labor, Other Professional Labor and Specialists”). The initial billing rates shall be in effect for the period January 1, 2005 through December 31, 2005. Commencing January 1, 2006, the billing rates will increase [*****%] per year on [*****%] of the billing rate, and be adjusted per the annual Consumer Price Index - Urban Wage Earners and Clerical Workers, Washington - Baltimore, DC-MD-VA-WV (Nov. 96 =100), as defined herein as the “Professional Labor Index”, for [*****%] of the billing rate. The Professional Labor Index for the average of the twelve months preceding each October will be used as part of next year’s escalation. For example, the rate for a Supervising Designer, Pay Grade [*****] is $[*****]/Hr. in 2005. The escalation on this rate would be ($[*****] x [*****%] x [*****] = $[*****]) + ($[*****] x [*****%] x [*****] [if the average Index for the 12 months proceeding October 2005 were [*****%]] =$[*****]) = a revised rate of $[*****]/Hr. effective January 1 - December 31, 2006. Chargeable hours shall be identified in the Project estimating process and approved by FirstEnergy. Hours documented by timesheets or acceptable electronic representations shall be submitted with a summary invoice for FirstEnergy approval and payment. A Professional Cost Fee will be applied to Engineering and Graphics Labor and to its associated G&A. The Rates provided do not include [******].

2. Other Professional Labor

Other Professional Labor includes Procurement Specialists, Cost Estimating Specialists, Office Managers, Scheduling Specialists, Constructability Specialists, Accounting/Cost Specialist, Timekeepers and other non-Engineering, non-Field Project support personnel. The labor costs shall be determined by multiplying the direct time charging personnel hours assignable to the Subproject by the current applicable billing rate as stated herein (Exhibit 5.1-10, “Rate Sheet for Engineering/Graphics Labor Other Professional Labor and Specialists”). The initial billing rates shall be in effect for the period January 1, 2005 through December 31, 2005. Commencing January 1, 2006, the billing rates will increase [*****%] per year on [*****%] of the billing rate, and be adjusted per the Professional Labor Index, as defined above, for [*****%] of the billing rate. For example, the rate for a Senior Project Controls Engineer, Pay Grade 25 is $[******]/Hr. in 2005. The escalation on this rate would be ($[******] x [******]% x [******] = $[******]) + ($[******] x [******]% x [******] [if the average Index for the 12 months preceding October 2005 were [******]%] = $[******] = a revised rate of [$*****]/Hr. effective January 1 - December 31, 2006. Chargeable hours shall be identified in the Project estimating process and approved by FirstEnergy. Hours documented by timesheets or acceptable electronic representations shall be submitted with a summary invoice for FirstEnergy’s approval and payment.

AQC SYSTEMS COST REIMBURSABLE WORK

CRAFT LABOR

The AE-Constructor shall be paid an amount to be determined by the following methods:

A. Payment for authorized Subcontracts (a subsidiary or company which is in any way associated with the AE-Constructor is not considered a Subcontractor) at AE-Constructor's direct cost (Invoice). For permanent materials furnished by a Subcontractor, such materials shall be furnished at Subcontractor's direct cost (Invoice). AE-Constructor shall include with invoices, receipts for all such materials furnished by Subcontractor.

B. Payment for permanent materials furnished by AE-Constructor at AE-Constructor's direct cost (Invoice). AE-Constructor shall include with invoice receipts for all such materials furnished.

C. Payment for major construction and maintenance tools and equipment that have an original cost greater than [$*****] each (MAJOR EQUIPMENT), by one or more of the following methods as determined by FirstEnergy and/or as dictated by ownership of equipment:

1.      For AE-Constructor-owned MAJOR EQUIPMENT, the AE-Constructor shall be reimbursed in accordance with the AE-Constructor's Internal Rate Schedule, Exhibit 5.1-8, and as noted below or at mutually agreed upon rates.

a. AE-Constructor’s Internal Rate Schedule shall constitute full compensation for the use of this equipment, including fuel, lubricants, taxes and including compensation for all labor, material and other costs incurred in the repair and maintenance of said equipment.

b. Rental rates shall be charged at the lowest rates considering the duration of time

that the equipment or tools are required. Rental rates shall be per calendar day, Week and Month with billing as follows:

· Beginning on the first day required, a daily rate during that Week (7-day period beginning on the day of the week the equipment is first required or for subsequent months, the first day of accrual for that month), but not to exceed the Weekly rate for that Week.

· The second Week of a rental again begins with the daily rate during the Week but not to exceed the Weekly rate for that Week.

· Further Weeks of rental again begin as above, but once the monthly rate is accrued, the monthly rate is used. The equipment is then available for a Month (beginning on the day of the month first used and until reaching the same day of the following month, at which time the cycle of accrual begins again.

c. If the physical use of the equipment in operating hours dictates required maintenance for the equipment including major overhauls (as designated in Exhibit 5.1-8 by AE-Constructor), for continuous use of the equipment for two shifts in one calendar day, Week, Month, AE-Constructor shall be reimbursed as if there were two pieces of equipment in use during that day, Week, Month.

d. If the physical use of the equipment in operating hours dictates required maintenance for the equipment including major overhauls (as designated in Exhibit 5.1-8 by AE-Constructor), for intermittent use of the equipment for two shifts in one calendar day, Week, Month, AE-Constructor shall be reimbursed as follows:

For second shift work (after the first shift has been reimbursed based on Article C.1.a. and b. above) rental rates shall be at half of the hourly rental rate (the hourly rental rate is determined using the monthly rental rate from Exhibit 5.1-8 divided by 176 hours) times the actual hours of use on second shift. Therefore as examples (For these examples, assume equipment rates are [$*****]/day, [$*****]/week, [$*****]/month, and hourly rental rate is [$*****]):

· Working 6 days per week, with actual work on second shift averaging 6 hours per day, (36 hours/week), reimbursement for a week would be [$*****] plus 36 hours times [$*****] times 50% or [$*****].

e. AE-Constructor shall document actual billable time and appropriate billing rates for purposes of determining actual cost to FirstEnergy, including daily, weekly or monthly

documentation, as appropriate, signed by FirstEnergy’s Superintendent. If no pre-planned written agreement is reached relative to the appropriate documentation, then daily documentation (such as supplemental documentation incorporated with signed daily time sheets) is required. AE-Constructor shall maintain documentation acceptable to FirstEnergy’s Superintendent indicating equipment usage and idle time and/or equipment required to be on-site. This documentation shall be a minimum of daily, or as indicated in above referenced pre-planned written agreement.

2. For AE-Constructor owned electrical tools meeting the requirements of this paragraph, not listed in Exhibit 5.1-8, or as determined by FirstEnergy, AE-Constructor shall be reimbursed at [*****%] of the daily, weekly and monthly rates contained in the latest edition of the"NECA Tool and Equipment Rental Schedules” (A Guide for Electrical Contractors or A Guide for Line Contractors), administered as in C.1.a., b., c., and d. above.  

3. For AE-Constructor owned construction equipment meeting the requirements of this paragraph, not listed in Exhibit 5.1-8 , or as determined by FirstEnergy, AE-Constructor shall be reimbursed at competitive regional rates no more than [*****%] of the AED Green Book of the daily, weekly and monthly rates contained in the latest edition of “The AED Green Book” published by Primedia Information Inc., San Jose, California (Refer to Exhibit 5.1-8) administered as in C.1.a.,b.,c., and d. above.

       4. For rented MAJOR EQUIPMENT from a third party, not a subsidiary or company which is in any way associated with the AE-Constructor, the AE-Constructor will be reimbursed at the direct cost (Invoice). No addidtional markup of the invoice cost for engine-driven equipment shall be allowed; with added mark-up (to be determined) to cover fuels and lubricants if such costs are not included in the equipment rental price. AE-Constructor shall endeavor to engage such third party rental company in the same form and manner as 2 above.

a. AE-Constructor’s primary source for third party reimbursable rented or leased MAJOR EQUIPMENT should be with FirstEnergy’s “preferred supplier” United Rentals, under the Pantellos Collaborative Agreement for FirstEnergy. The AE-Constructor shall secure comparative rental rates whenever feasible. FirstEnergy’s “preferred supplier” shall be used unless the rental rate is, in the AE-Constructor’s opinion, not competitive or the “preferred supplier” is unable to satisfactorily supply the equipment. The AE-Constructor is to communicate these exceptions and the reasons to the Supply Chain Department representative in a reasonable time, but no later than 30 days after completion of the work.

SCHEDULE LIQUIDATED DAMAGES (Wrap Arrangement)

For each day after the Guaranteed Final Completion date, but prior to 12/31/2010 (the “NSR Consent Decree Date”), that the Final Completion of an AQC Unit is delayed, the Contractor shall pay FirstEnergy an amount equal to the amount of the liquidated damages provided in the contract between the OEM and the Contractor regardless of whether Contractor or its Subcontractors (including the OEM) are at fault (but except to the extent FirstEnergy or FE Vendors are at fault or the Guaranteed Final Completion Date is extended pursuant to a Change Order) and regardless of the ability of the Contractor to ultimately collect such liquidated damages from the OEM. Contractor shall use best efforts to obtain, in such OEM contract, a liquidated damages rate of {$******] for each megawatt of NDC (defined in Exhibit 7.2) on the affected Generating Unit for each day of delay prior to the NSR Consent Decree Date (e.g. for the 300 MW Sammis Unit 5, the rate would be {$******] per day of delay).

For each day after the NSR Consent Decree Date that the Final Completion of an AQC Unit is delayed, the Contractor shall pay FirstEnergy an amount equal to the amount of the liquidated damages provided in the contract between the OEM and the Contractor regardless of whether Contractor or its Subcontractors (including the OEM) are at fault (but except to the extent FirstEnergy or FE Vendors are at fault or the Guaranteed Final Completion Date is extended pursuant to a Change Order) and regardless of the ability of the Contractor to ultimately collect such liquidated damages from the OEM. Contractor shall use best efforts to obtain, in such OEM contract, a liquidated damages rate of {$******] for each megawatt of NDC on the affected Generating Unit for each day of delay after the NSR Consent Decree Date (e.g. for the 300 MW Sammis Unit 5, the rate would be {$******] per day of delay).

In addition, with respect to an AQC Unit, for each Outage Day (defined in Exhibit 7.2) beyond [******] days the Contractor uses during the Corrective Action Period (defined in Exhibit 7.2), the Contractor shall pay FirstEnergy the an amount equal to the amount of liquidated damages provided in the contract between the OEM and the Contractor regardless of whether Contractor or its Subcontractors (including the OEM) are at fault (but except to the extent FirstEnergy or FE Vendors are at fault or the Guaranteed Final Completion Date is extended pursuant to a Change Order) and regardless of the ability of the Contractor to ultimately collect such liquidated damages from the OEM. Contractor shall use best efforts to obtain, in such OEM contract, a liquidated damages rate of {$******] for each affected megawatt of NDC on the affected Generating Unit for each Outage Day (e.g. for the 300 MW Sammis Unit 5, the rate would be {$******] per Outage Day).

In addition, with respect to each Subproject or AQC Unit, in the event that Final Document Delivery has not been achieved by the date that Final Completion is achieved, Contractor shall pay FirstEnergy as liquidated damages {$******] per day until Final Document Delivery occurs.

SCHEDULE LIQUIDATED DAMAGES (FE Vendor Arrangement)

With respect to an AQC Unit, for each day after the Guaranteed Final Completion date, but prior to the NSR Consent Decree Date, that the Final Completion is delayed, but only for that portion of such delay caused by the Contractor, the Contractor shall pay FirstEnergy as Liquidated Damages {$******] for each megawatt of NDC on the affected Generating Unit for each day of delay (e.g. for the 300 MW Sammis Unit 5, the rate would be {$******] per day of delay) and for each day after the NSR Consent Decree Date that the Final Completion is delayed, but only for that portion of such delay caused by the Contractor, the Contractor shall pay FirstEnergy as liquidated damages {$******] for each megawatt of NDC on the affected Generating Unit for each day of delay (e.g. for the 300 MW Sammis Unit 5, the rate would be {$******]/day of delay).

In addition, with respect to an AQC Unit, for each Outage Day beyond [******] days the Contractor uses during the Corrective Action Period, the Contractor shall pay FirstEnergy as liquidated damages, but only for that portion of such Outage Days caused by the Contractor, {$******] for each megawatt of NDC on the affected Generating unit for each Outage Day (e.g. for the 300 MW Sammis Unit 5, the rate would be {$******] Outage Day of delay).

In addition, with respect to each Subproject or AQC Unit, in the event that Final Document Delivery has not been achieved by the date that Final Completion is achieved, Contractor shall pay FirstEnergy as Liquidated Damages {$******] per day until Final Document Delivery occurs.

The Parties anticipate that the Project Schedule for the Subproject associated with Generating Units 1 through 4 of the Sammis Plant will designate a separate Guaranteed Final Completion Date for each AQC Unit within that Subproject. At the election of FirstEnergy, the Project Schedule for the Subproject associated with Sammis Plant Generating Units 5, 6, and 7 will designate either a single Guaranteed Final Completion Date for all AQC Units within that Subproject, or separate Guaranteed Final Completion Dates for each AQC Unit within that Subproject (with an adequate time allowed between the Scheduled Mechanical Completion Dates established for Generating Units 5, 6, and 7).

Contractor’s liability for Schedule Liquidated Damages for AQC Units associated with Sammis Plant Generating Units 1 through 4 shall in no event exceed the amount of the [******] on the total Subproject.

The limitation on the amount of Schedule Liquidated Damages for the AQC Units associated with Sammis Plant Generating Units 5, 6, and 7 shall be determined during the Development Phase as follows:

i)   If FirstEnergy elects to designate a single Guaranteed Final Completion Date for all AQC Units within that Subproject, then the Parties will treat all such AQC Units as one Subproject for purposes of the application of Schedule Liquidated Damages, and the Project Schedule will include an adequate time allowed between the Scheduled Mechanical Completion Dates established for the AQC Units associated with Generating Units 5, 6, and 7. In such case, Contractor’s liability for the Schedule Liquidated Damages for the Subproject shall in no event exceed the amount of the [******] on the total Subproject.

ii)   If FirstEnergy elects to designate separate Guaranteed Final Completion Dates for each AQC Unit within that Subproject, then the Parties will treat such AQC Units separately for purposes of the application of Schedule Liquidated Damages. In such case, Contractor’s liability for the Schedule Liquidated Damages for each AQC Unit shall in no event exceed the amount of the [******] on that AQC Unit.

EXHIBIT 7.2

RELIABILITY STANDARD, PERFORMANCE GUARANTEES AND PERFORMANCE LIQUIDATED DAMAGES

RELIABILITY STANDARD

As a prerequisite for Final Completion of an AQC Unit such AQC Unit shall complete a reliability test consisting of a 30 consecutive day run (the “Reliability Standard”).

An AQC Unit shall be deemed to have successfully met the Reliability Standard if the following criteria (or such criteria as may be negotiated with the OEM during the Development Phase; Contractor shall use best efforts to obtain the criteria listed below in the contract between the OEM and Contractor are met:

1.   During the reliability test, the average outlet emission rate is 0.10 lb./MMBTU or less for SO₂ with respect to AQC Units 5, 6, and 7 of the W.H. Sammis facility as measured by the AQC Unit CEMS. The acceptable average outlet emission rate with respect to AQC Units 1 - 4 will be determined during the Development Phase for that Subproject.

2.   The AQC Unit does not cause the associated Generating Unit output to be restricted during the duration of the test.

3.   No auxiliary, standby or temporary equipment or machinery is used during the performance of the test, unless otherwise approved by FirstEnergy (however, installed redundant, permanent plant equipment may be used during the test).

4.   The AQC Unit is operated in its normal mode of operation while the test is being conducted, which shall consist of;

(i)   the operation of the AQC Unit as a whole in accordance with the Specifications and the operating instructions supplied by the Contractor and approved by FirstEnergy during the Development Phase;

(ii)   the operation of all AQC Unit systems within the manufacturers’ specifications and without over-stressing or over-pressurizing any such systems; and

(iii)   the Generating Unit is operating on the range of fuels shown in Exhibit 7.2 -1.

The test shall be run by the Contractor utilizing FirstEnergy’s personnel by means of supervising and directing FirstEnergy’s supervisor(s); it being agreed by the parties that FirstEnergy’s personnel shall not be (or deemed to be) employees of the Contractor. However, the use of FirstEnergy’s personnel by the Contractor shall not relieve the Contractor of any liability or responsibility under this Agreement. FirstEnergy shall reasonably make available a set of operating spare parts for the Subproject available for Contractor’s use during the performance test. The operating spare parts inventory requirements will be established during the Development Phase.

In the event the Contractor fails to successfully meet the Reliability Standard after a test run, it shall promptly thereafter submit a plan to correct the work including an explanation of the reason for failure of the test, the tasks anticipated to correct the deficiencies, duration of the tasks and their critical path, the outages required and a cost estimate (the “Corrective Action Plan”). The Corrective Action Plan will be subject to timely and reasonable review and approval by FirstEnergy. Once the Corrective Action Plan is approved, the Contractor will execute the plan and re-perform the test. The Contractor shall repeat this procedure until the Reliability Standard has been met.

If, during the course of performing the test, the Generating Unit operation causes the Subproject to fail the test through no fault of the Contractor or the Subproject itself, the test will be suspended until the Generating Unit is returned to service. Once the AQC Unit is returned to service, the Contractor will continue the test counting from the day it had been suspended as if no interruption had occurred. Contractor will be given a day for day extension of the Corrective Action Period, if required, to complete such suspended test, and a Change Order to reflect adjustments to the Guaranteed Final Completion Date (and any other appropriate changes to the Changed Criteria) shall be completed.

EXHIBIT 7.2

PERFORMANCE GUARANTEES (Wrap Arrangement)

Performance Guarantees for an AQC Unit under a Wrap Arrangement are as follows:

· SO₂ Emission Removal Rate Guarantee: [******%] (or such amount as may be negotiated with the OEM during the Development Phase; Contractor shall use best efforts to obtain a [******%] SO₂ emission removal rate guarantee in the contract between the OEM and Contractor.)

· Auxiliary Power Guarantee: To be set during the Development Phase for the Subproject but will include all new loads associated with a given Subproject and any modification of existing loads (e.g. fan upgrades etc.) for a Subproject. For purposes of the Auxiliary Power Guarantee, allocation of new and existing electric loads between the AQC Units will be established during the Development Phase.

All Performance Guarantees are to be met while the Generating Unit operates at its Net Demonstrated Capacity (which capacity FirstEnergy shall reasonably document for Contractor) as modified by the additional auxiliary loads related to the Subproject (“NDC”) with consumables meeting the criteria set forth in the Design Fuel range as defined in Exhibit 7.2 -1 and the Design Reagent range. FirstEnergy and Contractor will establish the Design Reagent range during the Development Phase for the Subproject. During the performance test, there should be no net increase in front half filterable PM emissions for AQC Units 6 & 7 between inlet and outlet of the new WFGD systems for units 6 and 7, using reference methods specified in 40 CFR Part 60, Appendix A, Method 5, or Method 5B, in support of FirstEnergy's commitments within the NSR Consent Decree.

PERFORMANCE GUARANTEES (FE Vendor Arrangement)

Performance Guarantees, Design Fuel range, and Design Reagent range under a FE Vendor Arrangement will be set between the OEM for each Subproject and FirstEnergy and coordinated with Bechtel. Contractor shall be liable with respect to such Performance Guarantees to the extent Contractor contributes to any performance shortfall.

CORRECTIVE ACTION PERIOD

For purposes of this Exhibit 7.2, the “Operation Date” with respect to an AQC Unit shall mean the date which is [******] days prior to the Guaranteed Final Completion Date. If the Contractor fails to meet any of the Performance Guarantees, excluding the Reliability Standard, by the Operation Date, Contractor will be permitted a [******] day period to correct deficiencies in the work (the “Corrective Action Period”). During the Corrective Action Period the Contractor will be allowed an aggregate of [******] days during which the Generating Unit may be taken out of service at Contractor’s request without schedule Liquidated Damages and during which Contractor shall have reasonably unimpeded access to the Subproject in order to correct any such deficiencies (“Outage Days”). Once FirstEnergy has reviewed and approved the Corrective Action Plan the Contractor will implement the plan. FirstEnergy may modify the dates of any Outage Days at FirstEnergy’s sole discretion; however, at the end of the Corrective Action Period, if Contractor has not met the Performance Guarantees and FE has not provided at least [******] Outage Days during the Corrective Action Period, an extension of the Corrective Action Period and the Guaranteed Final Completion Date will be granted in accordance with Section 9.2 to allow scheduling of additional Outage Days. The number of additional Outage Days will be equal to the lessor of (i) the number of Outage Days requested by Contractor and denied by FirstEnergy during the original Corrective Action Period, or (ii) the difference between [******] days and the number of Outage Days actually used by Contractor during the initial Corrective Action Period.

Contractor shall work diligently to minimize the length of any required extension of the Correction Period.

Prior to Final Completion, FirstEnergy will work with the Contractor to allow Contractor additional access to the AQC Unit during any outages that are not related to the Subproject. Such access shall be granted at FirstEnergy’s sole discretion. The AE/Constructor will pay Schedule Liquidated Damages for any Outage Days taken in excess of the permitted [*****] Outage Days as provided in Exhibit 6.5.

The SO₂ removal rate for an AQC Unit should be greater than or equal to the SO₂ Emission Removal Rate Guarantee by the Guaranteed Final Completion Date. If the SO₂ removal rate for an AQC Unit is less than the SO₂ Emission Removal Rate Guarantee, the Contractor shall pay FirstEnergy, as Liquidated Damages, the liquidated damages provided in the contract between the OEM and the Contractor regardless of whether Contractor or its Subcontractors (including the OEM) are at fault (but except to the extent FirstEnergy or FE Vendors are at fault or the Performance Guarantee(s) has changed pursuant to a ChangeOrder) and regardless of the ability of the Contractor to ultimately collect such liquidated damages from the OEM. Contractor shall use best efforts to obtain, in such OEM contract, a liquidated damages rate of [$******] for each 0.1 percentage point by which the actual SO₂ removal rate is less than the SO₂ Emission Removal Rate Guarantee for each AQC Unit,

·   Auxiliary Power Guarantee:

The auxiliary power requirements for an AQC Unit should be less than or equal to the Auxiliary Power Guarantee by the Guaranteed Final Completion Date. If the auxiliary power requirements of an AQC Unit are greater than the Auxiliary Power Guarantee, the Contractor shall pay FirstEnergy, as Liquidated Damages, the liquidated damages provided in the contract between the OEM and the Contractor regardless of whether Contractor or its Subcontractors (including the OEM) are at fault (but except to the extent FirstEnergy or FE Vendors are at fault or the Performance Guarantee(s) has changed pursuant to a ChangeOrder) and regardless of the ability of the Contractor to ultimately collect such liquidated damages from the OEM. Contractor shall use best efforts to obtain, in such OEM contract, a liquidated damages rate of [$******] for each kilowatt by which the actual auxiliary power requirements of an AQC Unit, are greater than the Auxiliary Power Guarantee.

Contractor’s aggregate payment for all Performance Liquidated Damages for the Subproject conducted under the Wrap Arrangement is limited to the amount of the performance liquidated damages provided in the contract between the OEM (for purposes of clarification, it is anticipated that there will be only one (1) OEM for this Subproject) and the Contractor (subject to further limitation by the aggregate overall Liquidated Damages cap provided in such contract as applicable), regardless of whether Contractor or the OEM is at fault (but except to the extent FirstEnergy or FE Vendors are at fault or the Performance Guarantee(s) has changed pursuant to a Change Order) and regardless of the ability of the Contractor to ultimately collect such performance liquidated damages from the OEM, provided that, in the event such cap exceeds[$******], Contractor shall -be required to pay any amount in excess of [$******] in the cumulative aggregate only to the extent such excess is collected from the OEM. Contractor shall use best efforts to obtain, in such OEM contract, a liquidated damages aggregate payment cap of at least[$******].

PERFORMANCE LIQUIDATED DAMAGES (FE Vendor Arrangement)

·   SO₂ Emission Removal Rate Guarantee:

The SO₂ removal rate for an AQC Unit should be greater than or equal to the SO₂ Emission Removal Rate Guarantee negotiated with the OEM by the Guaranteed Final Completion Date. If the SO₂ removal rate for an AQC Unit is less than the SO₂ Emission Removal Rate Guarantee, but only to the extent the Contractor contributes to such shortfall, the Contractor shall payFirstEnergy, as liquidated damages, [$******] for each 0.1 percentage point (i.e., prorated for the extent the Contractor contributed to such shortfall) by which the AQC Unit’s actual SO₂ removal rate is less than the SO₂ Emission Removal Rate Guarantee.

·   Auxiliary Power Guarantee:

The auxiliary power requirements for each AQC Unit should be less than or equal to the Auxiliary Power Guarantee by the Guaranteed Final Completion Date. If the auxiliary power requirements for an AQC unit are greater than the Auxiliary Power Guarantee, but only to the extent the Contractor contributes to such excess, the Contractor shall pay FirstEnergy as Liquidated Damages, [$******] for each kilowatt (i.e., prorated for the extent the Contractor contributed to such shortfall) by which the actual auxiliary power requirements of an AQC Unit are greater than the Auxiliary Power Guarantee.

The parties shall jointly develop a test procedure to reflect the above during the Development Phase of each Subproject.
