VIII. ADDITIONAL COMMITMENTS

A. Allowance Surrender

67. Prior to January 31, 2017, Owners will transfer to a third party non-profit corporation mutually selected by Plaintiffs and Defendants a total of 5,500 SO2 Allowances with vintage years between 2010 and 2016, except as set forth in Paragraph 68. Each Owner’s Allowance transfer obligation pursuant to this Paragraph relative to the 5,500 SO2 Allowances will be proportionate to its current Ownership Interest in the Stuart Station, which is DEO: 39%, CSP: 26% and DP&L: 35%.

68. Each Owner may reduce its obligation to transfer Allowances by performing “mitigation measures” consisting of investments in Renewable Energy beyond those investments to be made pursuant to Section VIII.B of this Consent Decree. For every one (1) Megawatt (“MW”) investment in mitigation measures made by an Owner prior to January 1, 2016, the amount of Allowances required to be transferred by that Owner shall be reduced by 60 Allowances.

B. Renewable Energy

69. By no later than December 31, 2012, CSP will provide proof to Plaintiffs that it has secured binding long-term purchase power agreements or entered into alternative long-term arrangements after May 1, 2008, to secure a total of 40 MW (nameplate rating) of new Renewable Energy generation capacity, and DEO will provide proof to Plaintiffs that it has secured binding long-term purchase power arrangements or entered into alternative long-term arrangements after May 1, 2008, to secure a total of 60 MW (nameplate rating) of new Renewable Energy generation capacity. Once such proof is made, the Renewable Energy obligations under this Consent Decree are fulfilled.

70. Implementation of the Renewable Energy obligations imposed by this Consent Decree is subject to CSP and/or DEO and the Renewable Energy project(s) obtaining required regulatory Approvals from the state public service commissions and from all other applicable regulators, including Approvals necessary for full cost recovery through retail rates. For purposes of this Subsection B, “Approval” includes, but is not limited to, issuance of a final and non-appealable order by the Public Utility Commission of Ohio (“PUCO”), or equivalent regulatory authority in any of the states with jurisdiction over CSP, DEO or the Renewable Energy project, authorizing a charge over and above current rates to fully recover the costs of the project, or other equivalent mechanisms to fully recover the costs of the project that the Owner undertaking the project reasonably finds acceptable; all required permits, including federal and state environmental permits and local zoning and building certificates; and, if necessary, issuance of an order by the Ohio Power Siting Board or equivalent authority authorizing construction of the project. Sierra Club retains the right to challenge compliance with this Consent Decree regarding whether the PUCO, or equivalent regulatory authority in any of the states with jurisdiction over CSP, DEO or the Renewable Energy project, authorized full cost recovery of

the Renewable Energy project that the Owner undertaking the Renewable Energy project reasonably finds acceptable. Nothing herein limits the legal rights of any Party pursuant to this Consent Decree. CSP’s and DEO’s application to the appropriate regulatory authority shall contain terms regarding expected renewable resource capacity factor and/or price fluctuations based upon fluctuations in load served, as applicable. If CSP and/or DEO and the Renewable Energy project(s) have sought and are unable to obtain such Approvals from regulators in any of the states with jurisdiction over CSP, DEO, or the Renewable Energy project(s), despite their timely, reasonable and good faith efforts, CSP and/or DEO shall have no further obligation with respect to any portion of the Renewable Energy commitments under this Consent Decree for which full cost recovery approval has not been obtained.

71. Consistent with Paragraph 69, CSP and/or DEO may, at their sole discretion, satisfy their Renewable Energy obligations imposed by this Consent Decree through the purchase of energy from the requisite amount of capacity or a commitment of capacity not previously used and useful whether owned, purchased or constructed. CSP and/or DEO will request a charge over and above current rates to fully recover the costs of the Renewable Energy project(s) and if such Approval is not obtained pursuant to the energy or capacity option chosen despite their timely, reasonable and good faith efforts, then CSP and/or DEO, as applicable, will have no further obligations under this Subsection B with respect to that portion of the Renewable Energy obligation represented by the applicable application. If such Approval is obtained but, subsequently, a court of competent jurisdiction determines that the PUCO is without the legal authority to establish such a full cost recovery charge, the Owner requesting the full cost recovery charge shall have no further obligation with respect to any portion of the Renewable Energy commitments under this Consent Decree for which full cost recovery Approval has not

been obtained. Once CSP and/or DEO, consistent with their good faith obligations in Paragraph 70, have applied for cost recovery Approval sufficient to meet their Renewable Energy obligations imposed by this Consent Decree either through the purchase of energy or a commitment of capacity, their Renewable Energy obligations imposed by this Consent Decree shall end and CSP and/or DEO shall have no requirement to meet such obligations through the methodology, i.e., purchase of energy or capacity commitment, for which it has not made an application.

72. Nothing in this Section shall preclude CSP and/or DEO from relying on the investments made, or power purchase contracts entered into pursuant to this Consent Decree to demonstrate compliance with, seek renewable energy credits for, or otherwise satisfy the requirements of or participate in any federal, state or local statutory or regulatory programs regarding Renewable Energy or climate change-related requirements.

C. Demand Side Management (DSM)

73. No later than December 31, 2008, DP&L shall file a request with the PUCO for Approval to invest in and recover the costs of DSM projects and initiatives with the objective of reducing annual electric usage by 120 gigawatt hours (“GWh”) per year no later than within the calendar year ending December 31, 2018; provided, however, that if DP&L is directed or requested by the PUCO or its Staff to defer the filing date or to file the request as part of a more comprehensive rate plan or filing, DP&L shall promptly contact Plaintiffs to discuss an alternative filing date. In no event shall DP&L file later than the date directed or requested by the PUCO. Upon Approval by PUCO for DP&L to recover its investment and lost revenues through rates above and beyond its current delivery rates, DP&L shall begin making its approved investment in such projects. DP&L shall implement DSM in accordance with the PUCO order.

For purposes of this Subsection C, “Approval” means issuance of a final and non-appealable order by the PUCO authorizing a charge over and above current rates to fully recover the costs and lost revenues associated with the DSM program or other equivalent mechanism to fully recover the costs of and lost revenues associated with the DSM project that DP&L reasonably finds acceptable.

74. Implementation of the DSM obligations imposed by this Consent Decree is subject to DP&L obtaining required regulatory Approvals from PUCO, including Approvals necessary for DP&L to recover through rates the costs of such investment and lost revenues over and above its current delivery rates. Except as provided in Paragraph 75, if DP&L is unable to obtain such Approval from the PUCO despite its timely, reasonable and good faith efforts,, DP&L shall have no further obligations under this Consent Decree with respect to the proposal or implementation of DSM investments.

75. DP&L may request that the charge over and above current rates to fully recover the costs of the DSM projects and initiatives be recovered from all customers taking distribution service from DP&L. However, if Approval is rejected based solely on a determination by the PUCO or a court of competent jurisdiction that it is without the legal authority to establish such a charge, DP&L shall not be released from its obligations with respect to this Subsection C.

76. As soon as practicable but no later than thirty (30) days prior to seeking Approval by the PUCO, DP&L shall share the programs, program design, and program implementation details that DP&L intends to submit to the PUCO with Plaintiffs and shall have at least one meeting with Plaintiffs to discuss DP&L’s intended submittal to the PUCO. It is intended that, among other things, such a meeting would include scheduling periodic follow-up

meetings at least once a year to provide further information to Plaintiffs and solicit input from Plaintiffs regarding programs, program design, implementation and results. Information provided to Plaintiffs pursuant to this Paragraph shall be considered Confidential Business Information and shall be maintained as confidential pursuant to Paragraph 128 of this Consent Decree until DP&L makes its filing to the PUCO.

77. The annual electric usage reduction goal set forth above is based on a base line demand and usage assuming a continuation of current usage patterns and trends in load growth and electric use per customer. Electricity usage reductions associated with third-party curtailment service providers licensed by PJM and operating in the DP&L zone or associated with programs undertaken pursuant to federal mandates shall reduce the goal set forth above by a corresponding amount.

78. Nothing herein shall be deemed to preclude a DP&L affiliate that is not subject to the jurisdiction of the PUCO from offering DSM and other energy efficiency programs to DP&L customers or to electric consumers located in other service areas.

79. Nothing in this Section shall preclude DP&L from relying on the investments made in DSM pursuant to this Consent Decree to demonstrate compliance with or otherwise satisfy the requirements of or participate in any federal, state or local statutory or regulatory programs regarding DSM or climate change-related requirements.

D. Funds for Renewable Energy Rebate Program

80. Within one hundred and eighty (180) days after the date of entry of this Consent Decree, Owners shall transfer to a third-party non-profit corporation selected by Plaintiffs, with approval by Owners, which will not be unreasonably withheld, a total of $200,000 to provide rebates to consumers in Ohio for the purchase of solar hot water heaters.

Plaintiffs or the third-party non-profit corporation will seek to obtain additional funding for the implementation of the solar hot water heater rebate program but, in any event, will ensure that no more than twenty (20) percent of the funds provided for under this Paragraph will be spent on implementation costs for the rebate program. For the purposes of this Paragraph, implementation costs shall include all overhead costs as well as educational efforts and subsequent verification of operability of the solar hot water heaters. Each Owner’s monetary obligation pursuant to this Paragraph relative to the $200,000 will be proportionate to its current Ownership Interest in the Stuart Station, which is DEO: 39%, CSP: 26% and DP&L: 35%.

E. General Provisions

81. The obligations in this Section VIII are enforceable only against the individual Owner specified herein and are not joint and several obligations of the Owners.

IX. PERIODIC REPORTING

82. Beginning sixty (60) days after the end of the first semi-annual period following the Effective Date of this Consent Decree, continuing until termination of this Consent Decree, and except as provided in Paragraph 83, Owners shall send to Plaintiffs a semi-annual report containing information on the following:

a. The actual 30-Day Rolling Average NOx Emission Rate for the Stuart Station, as calculated in accordance with Paragraphs 40 and 52 of this Consent Decree.

b. The actual 30-Day Rolling Average SO2 Emission Rate for the Stuart Station, as calculated in accordance with Paragraphs 41 and 59 of this Consent Decree.

c. The actual 30-Day Rolling Average SO2 Removal Efficiency for the Stuart Station, as calculated in accordance with Paragraphs 42 and 60 of this Consent Decree.

d. The actual 30-Day Rolling Average SO2 Removal Efficiency for the Stuart Station, as calculated in accordance with Paragraphs 42 and 60 of this Consent Decree but including periods of Malfunction.

e. The results of any stack tests for filterable PM for any Stuart Station Unit, if conducted during the semi-annual period.

f. Any emissions or Hourly Heat Input data that are excluded from any of the above calculations during the semi-annual period.

83. The requirements of Paragraph 82 shall not take effect for the reporting of the 30-Day Rolling Average SO2 Emission Rate and 30-Day Rolling Average SO2 Removal Efficiencies until sixty (60) days after the end of the semi-annual period in which the 30-Day Rolling Average SO2 Emission Rate identified in Paragraph 54 and the 30-Day Rolling Average SO2 Removal Efficiencies identified in Paragraphs 54 and 55 take effect.

84. Upon request by Plaintiffs, Owners shall make available to Plaintiffs the operator logs or computer printouts regarding boiler operations for days on which any Stuart Station Unit operates but does not meet the definition of a Boiler Operating Day.

X. RESOLUTION OF CLAIMS

85. Claims Based on Actions Occurring Before the Effective Date. Entry of this Consent Decree shall resolve any and all claims of Plaintiffs under the Clean Air Act relating to any actions taken by Owners at Stuart Station prior to the Effective Date, including but not limited to those claims and actions alleged or that could have been alleged in the Complaints and Notice Letters in this civil action.

86. Claims Based on Modifications After the Effective Date. Entry of this Consent Decree also shall resolve all claims of Plaintiffs for pollutants regulated under Parts C or D of Subchapter I of the Clean Air Act, and under regulations promulgated or approved

thereunder as of the date of entry of this Decree, where such claims are based on a modification occurring after the Effective Date that this Consent Decree expressly directs Owners to undertake. The term “modification” as used in this Paragraph shall have the meaning that term is given under the Clean Air Act statute as it existed on the date of lodging of this Consent Decree.

XI. FORCE MAJEURE

87. For purposes of this Consent Decree, a “Force Majeure Event” shall mean an event that has been or will be caused by circumstances beyond the control of Owners or any entity controlled by Owners that delays or impedes compliance with any provision of this Consent Decree or otherwise causes a violation of any provision of this Consent Decree despite Owners’ reasonable efforts to fulfill the obligation. “Reasonable efforts to fulfill the obligation” include using reasonable efforts to anticipate any potential Force Majeure Event and to address the effects of any such event (a) as it is occurring and (b) after it has occurred, such that the delay or violation is minimized to the greatest extent possible.

88. Notice of Force Majeure Events. If any event occurs or has occurred that may delay compliance with or otherwise cause a violation of any obligation under this Consent Decree, as to which Owners intend to assert a claim of Force Majeure, Owners shall notify Plaintiffs in writing as soon as practicable, but in no event later than twenty-one (21) days following the date that the Owners first knew of the event or by the exercise of due diligence should have known, that the event caused or may cause such delay or violation. In this notice, Owners shall reference this Paragraph of this Consent Decree and describe the anticipated length of time that the delay or violation may persist, the cause or causes of the delay or violation, all measures taken or to be taken by Owners to prevent or minimize the delay or violation, the schedule by which Owners propose to implement those measures, and Owners’ rationale for

attributing a delay or violation to a Force Majeure Event. Defendants shall adopt all reasonable measures to avoid or minimize such delays or violations.

89. Failure to Give Notice. If Owners materially fail to comply with the notice requirements of this Section, the Plaintiffs may dispute the validity of Owners’ claim for Force Majeure as to the specific event for which Owners have failed to comply with such notice requirement.

90. Plaintiffs’ Response. The Plaintiffs shall notify Owners in writing regarding Owners’ claim of Force Majeure within twenty (20) business days of receipt of the notice provided under the preceding Paragraph. If the Plaintiffs agree that a delay in performance has been or will be caused by a Force Majeure Event, the Parties shall stipulate to an extension of deadline(s) for performance of the affected compliance requirement(s) by a period equal to the delay actually caused by the event. In such circumstances, an appropriate modification shall be made pursuant to Section XX (Modification) of this Consent Decree.

91. Disagreement. If the Plaintiffs do not accept Owners’ claim of Force Majeure, or if the Parties cannot agree on the length of the delay actually caused by the Force Majeure Event, or the extent of relief required to address the delay actually caused by the Force Majeure Event, the matter shall be resolved in accordance with Section XIII (Dispute Resolution) of this Consent Decree.

92. Burden of Proof. In any dispute regarding Force Majeure, the burden of proof shall be determined in accordance with Ohio law.

93. Events Excluded. Unanticipated or increased costs or expenses associated with the performance of Owners’ obligations under this Consent Decree shall not constitute a Force Majeure Event.

94. Potential Force Majeure Events. The Parties agree that, depending upon the circumstances related to an event and Owners’ response to such circumstances, the kinds of events listed below are among those that could qualify as Force Majeure Events within the meaning of this Section: construction, labor, or equipment delays; Malfunction of a Unit or emission control device; natural gas supply interruption; acts of God; acts of war or terrorism; and orders by a court, a government official, government agency, or other regulatory body acting under and authorized by applicable law that directs Owners to operate Stuart Station in response to a systemwide (state-wide or regional for the region that includes Stuart Station) Generation Emergency. Depending upon the circumstances and Owners’ response to such circumstances, failure of a federal, state or local agency or commission to issue a necessary permit, license, approval or order may constitute a Force Majeure Event where the failure of the authority to act is beyond the control of Owners and Owners have taken all reasonable steps to obtain the necessary permit, license, approval or order.

95. As part of the resolution of any matter submitted to this Court under Section XIII (Dispute Resolution) of this Consent Decree regarding a claim of Force Majeure, the Parties by agreement, or this Court by order, may in appropriate circumstances extend or modify the schedule for completion of work under this Consent Decree to account for the delay in the work that occurred as a result of any delay agreed to by Plaintiffs or approved by the Court or excuse non-compliance with any other requirement of this Consent Decree attributable to a Force Majeure event.

XII. MALFUNCTION EVENTS

96. If Owners intend to exclude a period of Malfunction, as defined in Paragraph 17, from the calculation of a 30-Day Rolling Average NOx Emission Rate in Paragraphs 44, 45 or 47, the 30-Day Rolling Average SO2 Emission Rate in Paragraph 54, or the 96% 30-Day

Rolling Average SO2 Removal Efficiency in Paragraph 54, Owners shall notify Plaintiffs in writing as soon as practicable, but in no event later than twenty-one (21) days following the date the Malfunction occurs.

97. In the notice required pursuant to Paragraph 96, Owners shall describe the cause or causes of the Malfunction, the measures taken or to be taken by Owners to minimize the duration of the Malfunction, the measures taken or to be taken by Owners to avoid recurrence of the Malfunction in the future, and the schedule by which Owners propose to implement those measures.

98. A Malfunction, as defined in Paragraph 17 of this Consent Decree, does not constitute a Force Majeure Event unless the Malfunction also meets the definition of a Force Majeure Event, as provided in Section XI. Conversely, a period of Malfunction may be excluded by Owners from the calculations of Emission Rates and Removal Efficiencies, as allowed under Paragraph 96 of this Consent Decree, regardless of whether the Malfunction constitutes a Force Majeure Event.

XIII. DISPUTE RESOLUTION

99. The dispute resolution procedure provided by this Section shall be available to resolve all disputes arising under this Consent Decree, including any alleged breach of this Consent Decree by one of the Parties, provided that the party invoking such procedure has first made a good faith attempt to resolve the matter with the other party.

100. The dispute resolution procedure required herein shall be invoked by one party giving written notice to the other party advising of a dispute pursuant to this Section. The notice shall describe the nature of the dispute and shall state the noticing party’s position with regard to such dispute. The party receiving such a notice shall acknowledge receipt of the notice,

and the Parties shall expeditiously schedule a meeting or telephone conference to discuss the dispute informally not later than fourteen (14) days following receipt of such notice.

101. Disputes submitted to dispute resolution under this Section shall, in the first instance, be the subject of informal negotiations among the Parties. Such period of informal negotiations shall not extend beyond thirty (30) calendar days from the date of the first meeting among the disputing Parties’ representatives unless they agree in writing to shorten or extend this period. During the informal negotiations period, the Parties may also submit their dispute to a mutually-agreed-upon alternative dispute resolution (“ADR”) forum if the Parties agree that the ADR activities can be completed within the 30-day informal negotiations period (or such longer period as the Parties may agree to in writing).

102. If the Parties are unable to resolve the dispute through the informal process described above, the disputing party waives its rights to further dispute the issue unless it files a petition or other filing with the Court describing the dispute and serves it on the other Parties. The other party shall have forty-five (45) days after the receipt of the petition to file and serve a written response. The filing party will then have fifteen (15) days to file a reply.

103. As part of the resolution of any dispute under this Section, in appropriate circumstances the Parties by agreement, or this Court by order, may extend or modify the schedule for the completion of the activities required under this Consent Decree to account for the delay that occurred as a result of dispute resolution or may excuse non-compliance with any other requirement of this Consent Decree that occurred during the dispute resolution period. Owners shall not be precluded from asserting that a Force Majeure Event has caused or may cause a delay in complying with the extended or modified schedule or has resulted in

non-compliance with any other requirement of this Consent Decree, except as otherwise provided for in this Consent Decree.

XIV. PERMITS

104. Nothing in this Consent Decree shall be construed to alter or change Owners’ obligations under Ohio law to secure a permit to authorize construction or operation of any device, including all preconstruction, construction, and operating permits required under state law. Owners shall make such application in a timely manner. When permits are required as described above, Owners shall complete and submit applications for such permits to the appropriate authorities to allow time for all legally required processing and review of the permit request, including requests for additional information by the permitting authorities.

105. Notwithstanding Paragraph 104, nothing in this Consent Decree shall be construed to require Owners to apply for or obtain a PSD or Nonattainment NSR permit for physical changes in, or changes in the method of operation of, any Stuart Station Unit that would give rise to claims resolved by Section X (Resolution of Claims) of this Consent Decree.

106. Prior to termination of this Consent Decree, Owners shall obtain revisions to the Stuart Station’s Title V permit to incorporate the applicable emissions limitations and associated monitoring requirements for NOx, SO2 and filterable PM identified in Paragraphs 47, 51-52, 54-55, 58-60, and 61-62 of this Consent Decree.

107. After the requirements identified in Paragraph 106 are incorporated into the Stuart Station Title V permit, the Owners shall include these requirements in any Stuart Station Title V permit renewal applications unless the Stuart Station Units become subject to emissions limitations that are no less stringent than the emissions limitations in Paragraphs 47, 54-55, and 61 of this Consent Decree pursuant to a federal, state or local statutory or regulatory program that is enforceable under 42 U.S.C. § 7604. This Paragraph shall survive the termination of this

Consent Decree and the Court shall continue to retain jurisdiction to enforce the requirements in this Paragraph until such time that the Stuart Station Units become subject to emissions limitations that are no less stringent than the emissions limitations in Paragraphs 47, 54-55, and 61 of this Consent Decree pursuant to a federal, state or local statutory or regulatory program that is enforceable under 42 U.S.C. § 7604, or until such time that the emissions limitations in Paragraphs 47, 54-55 and 61 of this Consent Decree are incorporated into the Ohio SIP.

108. Owners shall provide Plaintiffs with a copy of any permit application required pursuant to this Section, including any permit application to revise the Stuart Station Title V permit, to allow for timely participation in any public comment period on the permit application.

109. If Owners sell or transfer to an entity unrelated to Owners (“Third Party Purchaser”) part or all of their Ownership Interests in a Stuart Station Unit covered under this Consent Decree, Owners shall comply with the requirements of Paragraph 113 with regard to that Unit prior to any such sale or transfer unless, following any such sale or transfer, Owners remain the holder of the Title V or other federally enforceable permit for such facility.

This Consent Decree shall not be construed to impede the transfer of any Ownership Interests between Owners and any Third Party Purchaser as long as the requirements of this Section are met.

115.

XXI. GENERAL PROVISIONS

122. This Consent Decree is not a permit. Compliance with the terms of this Consent Decree does not guarantee compliance with all applicable federal, state, or local laws or regulations. The emission rates set forth herein do not relieve Owners from any obligation to comply with other state and federal requirements under the Clean Air Act at Stuart Station.

123. Every term expressly defined by this Consent Decree shall have the meaning given to that term by this Consent Decree and, except as otherwise provided in this Consent Decree, every other term used in this Consent Decree that is also a term under the Act or the regulations implementing the Act shall mean in this Consent Decree what such term means under the Act or those implementing regulations.

124. All references in this Consent Decree to statutory or regulatory provisions by specific citation shall refer to the language of those provisions as they exist on the date of lodging of this Consent Decree.

125. Performance standards, emissions limits, and other quantitative standards set by or under this Consent Decree must be met to the number of significant digits in which the standard or limit is expressed. Owners shall round the third significant digit to the nearest second significant digit, or the fourth significant digit to the nearest third significant digit, depending upon whether the limit is expressed to two or three significant digits. For example, if an actual Emission Rate is 0.104, that shall be reported as 0.10, and shall be in compliance with an Emission Rate of 0.10, and if an actual Emission Rate is 0.105, that shall be reported as 0.11,

and shall not be in compliance with an Emission Rate of 0.10. Owners shall report data to the number of significant digits in which the standard or limit is expressed.

126. This Consent Decree does not limit, enlarge or affect the rights of any party to this Consent Decree as against any third parties.
