Grise, Esq. Senior Vice President, Secretary and General Counsel Northeast Utilities Service Company P.O. Box 270 Hartford, Connecticut 06141-0270 (Name of address of agent for service) The Commission is requested to mail signed copies of all orders, notices and communications to: Randy A. Shoop Jeffrey C. Miller Treasurer Assistant General Counsel The Connecticut Light and Power Company Richard M. Early, Esq. P.O. Box 270 Senior Counsel Hartford, Connecticut 06141-0270 Northeast Utilities Service Company P.O. Box 270 Hartford, Connecticut 06141-0270 ITEM 1. Description of Proposed Transaction 1. The purpose of this Application/Declaration is to seek the Commission's order approving the sale by deed in lieu of condemnation of the South Meadow electric generating station (the "Station") by The Connecticut Light and Power Company ("CL&P") to the Connecticut Resources Recovery Authority ("CRRA"). CL&P is an electric company subsidiary of Northeast Utilities ("NU"), a registered holding company. CRRA is a public instrumentality and political subdivision of the State of Connecticut established by statute for the performance of essential public and governmental functions involving handling and disposal of solid waste, and resource recovery in Connecticut. 2. The proposed sale of the Station (the "Transaction") is documented in a Title Transfer Agreement, a copy of which is attached as Exhibit B.1 to this Application/Declaration. The Station generates electricity (a) from steam derived from combustion of municipal solid waste in boilers owned by CRRA turning two steam turbines owned by CL&P and (b) by use of four jet turbine sets owned by CL&P. The capability of the Station is approximately 250 megawatts. As of November 30, 2000 the net book value (excluding dismantlement reserves) of the Station was approximately $2.9 million, as shown below: Description Amount Historical Cost $96,032,021 Accumulated Depreciation (FN 1) 93,106,687 Net Book Value $2,925,334 Dismantlement Reserves 5,075,961 Net Book Value, with Dismantlement ($2,150,627) CRRA will pay CL&P $10 million for the property, plus a full assumption by CRRA of all but $2 million of on-site environmental obligations. Minor amounts of FERC-jurisdictional "transmission" assets will be included with the Station. CL&P will retain either a fee interest or adequate easement rights for the existing substation, switchyard and related transmission and distribution facilities, which CL&P intends to retain. CRRA will continue to use the Station to process municipal solid waste and to generate electricity for sale to CL&P and in the New England competitive markets. FN 1. The provision for depreciation is calculated using the straight-line method based on the estimated remaining useful lives of depreciable utility plant-on-service, adjusted for salvage value and removal costs, as approved by the appropriate regulatory agency where applicable. Except for major facilities, depreciation rates are applied to the average plant-in-service during the period. Major facilities are depreciated from the time they are placed in service. When plant is retired from service, the original cost of the plant, including costs of removal less salvage, is charged to the accumulated provision for depreciation. The costs of closure and removal of nonnuclear facilities are accrued over the life of the plant as a component of depreciation. 3. The Transaction is consistent with the Connecticut Electric Restructuring Act ("Restructuring Act"), which requires CL&P to divest all generating capacity. CL&P has effected the divestiture of its other non- nuclear generating stations through competitively bid auctions, and had intended to do so for the Station. However, CRRA, to protect its significant investment on the Station site in municipal solid waste processing and combustion facilities, sought and obtained approval of the Connecticut Department of Public Utility Control ("DPUC") to take the Station by eminent domain. A copy of CRRA's application to the DPUC is filed herewith as Exhibit D.1. The taking by CRRA was approved by the DPUC by Decision in Docket No. 99-06-27 (September 1, 1999), a certified copy of which is filed herewith as Exhibit D.2. As CRRA and CL&P negotiated the details of the condemnation, they determined that it would substantially simplify and expedite the transaction if CL&P tenders a deed in lieu of condemnation to CRRA for the Station. CRRA and CL&P have jointly requested DPUC approval of this change in form of the transaction. A copy of this joint request is filed herewith as Exhibit D.3. CL&P is also seeking approval by the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission ("FERC") under Section 203 of the Federal Power Act of CL&P's disposition of FERC-jurisdictional assets, i.e., transmission facilities used in interstate commerce. A copy of this application is filed herewith as Exhibit D.4. 4. The Transaction is the result of arm's length negotiations, has been reviewed and approved by the DPUC and found to be in the public interest, is subject to additional DPUC review and should be approved by the Commission. As the DPUC determined, this transaction will not only provide CL&P with a payment of $10 million, it will also relieve CL&P of significant environmental liabilities for the Station, which the record of the DPUC proceedings estimates as being worth an additional $20-$30 million, in addition to the cash consideration. The Transaction is in compliance with the Restructuring Act and will enable CL&P to complete the required divestiture of its non-nuclear generating capacity. ITEM 2. Fees, Commissions, and Expenses 5. The fees, commissions and expenses of the Applicants expected to be paid or incurred, directly or indirectly, in connection with the transactions described above are estimated as follows: Northeast Utilities Service Company Not in excess of $10,000 (Legal, Financial, Accounting and Other Services) Outside Support (Legal, Environmental approximately $350,000 and Other Services) ITEM 3. Applicable Statutory Provisions 6. The sections of the Act and the related regulations of the Commission which are or may be applicable to the transactions as herein proposed are set forth below: (i) Sale of utility assets Section 12(d), Rule 44 To the extent any other sections of the Act or rules thereunder may be applicable to the proposed transactions, the Applicants request appropriate orders thereunder. ITEM 4. Regulatory Approval 7. Additional approvals are required from the DPUC and the FERC as described in Item 1.3 above. ITEM 5. Procedure 8. The Applicants hereby request that the Commission publish a notice under Rule 23 with respect to the filing of this Application as soon as practicable and that the Commission's order be issued as soon as possible. A form of notice suitable for publication in the Federal Register is attached hereto as Exhibit H.1. The Applicants respectfully request the Commission's approval, pursuant to this Application, of all transactions described herein, whether under the sections of the Act and Rules thereunder enumerated in Item 3 or otherwise. It is further requested that the Commission issue an order authorizing the transactions proposed herein at the earliest practicable date but in any event not later than February 15, 2001. Additionally, the Applicants (i) request that there not be any recommended decision by a hearing officer or by any responsible officer of the Commission, (ii) consent to the Office of Public Utility Regulation within the Division of Investment Management assisting in the preparation of the Commission's decision, and (iii) waive the 30-day waiting period between the issuance of the Commission's order and the date on which it is to become effective, since it is desired that the Commission's order, when issued, become effective immediately. Other Matters 9. Except in accordance with the Act, neither NU nor any subsidiary thereof (a) has acquired an ownership interest in an exempt wholesale generator ("EWG") or a foreign utility company ("FUCO") as defined in Sections 32 and 33 of the Act, or (b) now is or as a consequence of the transactions proposed herein will become a party to, or has or will as a consequence of the transactions proposed herein have a right under, a service, sales, or construction contract with an EWG or a FUCO. None of the proceeds from the transactions proposed herein will be used by NU and its subsidiaries to acquire any securities of, or any interest in, an EWG or a FUCO. 10. NU currently meets all of the conditions of Rule 53(a),except for clause (1). At September 30, 2000, NU's "aggregate investment," as defined in Rule 53(a)(1), in EWGs and FUCOs was approximately $469.5 million, or approximately 74% of NU's average "consolidated retained earnings," also as defined in Rule 53(a)(1), for the four quarters ended September 30, 2000 ($638.8 million). With respect to Rule 53(a)(1), however, the Commission has determined that NU's financing of its investment in Northeast Generation Company ("NGC"), NU's only current EWG or FUCO in an amount not to exceed $481 million or 83% of its "average consolidated retained earnings" would not have either of the adverse effects set forth in Rule 53(c). See Northeast Utilities, Holding Company Act Release No. 27148, dated March 7, 2000 (the "Rule 53(c) Order"). NU continues to assert that its EWG investment in NGC will not adversely affect the System. 11. In addition, NU and its subsidiaries are in compliance and will continue to comply with the other provisions of Rule 53(a) and (b), as demonstrated by the following determinations: (i) NGC maintains books and records, and prepares financial statements in accordance with Rule 53(a)(2). Furthermore, NU has undertaken to provide the Commission access to such books and records and financial statements, as it may request; (ii) No employees of NU's public utility subsidiaries have rendered services to NGC; (iii) NU has submitted (a) a copy of each Form U-1 and Rule 24 certificate that has been filed with the Commission under Rule 53 and (b) a copy of Item 9 of the Form U5S and Exhibits G and H thereof to each state regulator having jurisdiction over the retail rates of NU's public utility subsidiaries; (iv) Neither NU nor any subsidiary has been the subject of a bankruptcy or similar proceeding unless a plan of reorganization has been confirmed in such proceeding; (v) NU's average CREs for the four most recent quarterly periods have not decreased by 10% or more from the average for the previous four quarterly periods; and (vi) In the previous fiscal year, NU did not report operating losses attributable to its investment in EWGs/FUCOs exceeding 3 percent of NU's consolidated retained earnings. 12. The proposed transactions, considered in conjunction with the effect of the capitalization and earnings of NU's EWGs and FUCOs, would not have a material adverse effect on the financial integrity of the NU system, or an adverse impact on NU's public-utility subsidiaries, their customers, or the ability of State commissions to protect such public-utility customers. The Rule 53(c) Order was predicated, in part, upon an assessment of NU's overall financial condition which took into account, among other factors, NU's consolidated capitalization ratio and its retained earnings, both of which have improved since the date of the order. NU's EWG investment (it has no FUCO investment) has been profitable for the periods beginning March 7, 2000 and ending March 31, 2000, June 30, 2000 and September 30, 2000, respectively. As of December 31, 1999, the most recent period for which financial statement information was evaluated in the Rule 53(c) Order, NU's consolidated capitalization consisted of 35.3% common equity and 64.7% debt (including long and short-term debt, preferred stock, capital leases and guarantees). As of June 30, 2000, the end of the first quarter after the issuance of the Rule 53(c) Order, the consolidated capitalization ratios of NU, with consolidated debt including all short-term debt and non-recourse debt of the EWG was as follows: As of June 30, 2000 (thousands of dollars) % Common shareholders' equity 2,365,854 36.9 Preferred stock 277,700 4.3 Long-term and short-term debt 3,768,353 58.8 6,411,907 100.0 The consolidated capitalization ratios of NU as of September 30, 2000, with consolidated debt including all short-term debt and non-recourse debt of the EWG was as follows: As of September 30, 2000 (thousands of dollars) % Common shareholders' equity 2,413,785 37.9 Preferred stock 277,700 4.3 Long-term and short-term debt 3,683,667 57.8 6,375,152 100.0 NU's consolidated retained earnings have increased from $582 million as of December 31, 1999 to $691 million as of September 30, 2000. NU's interest in NGC (its only EWG or FUCO) has made a positive contribution to earnings in that time by contributing $15 million to NU's retained earnings with revenues of $75.5 million and net income of $15.7 million. Accordingly, since the date of the Rule 53(c) Order, the capitalization and earnings attributable to NU's investments in EWGs and FUCOs has not had an adverse impact on NU's financial integrity.

CRRA and CL&P are each referred to herein as a "Party" or, collectively as the "Parties." RECITALS: (A) Pursuant to Section 16-244e of the Connecticut General Statutes ("C.G.S.") (Section 6 of Public Act No. 98-28, an Act Concerning Electric Restructuring) and in accordance with the divestiture plan approved by the Connecticut Department of Public Utility Control ("CDPUC") in Docket No. 98- 10-08, CL&P was obligated to unbundle and separate all of its generation assets from its transmission and distribution functions and it intended to do so by public auction. (B) CRRA has the power to acquire property by condemnation pursuant to Section 22a-266(a)(7) and 22a-276 of the C.G.S. (C) Because of the possibility that a third party at a public auction could acquire the Acquired Assets, as hereinafter defined, CRRA threatened to take them by condemnation for the purpose of securing its investment and long term interest in the Acquired Assets, which it considered to be in furtherance of the public interest. (D) CRRA applied to the CDPUC under Section 16-43 of the C.G.S. for approval of such condemnation and in Order No. 2, Docket No. 99-06-27, the CDPUC approved the acquisition of the Acquired Assets by CRRA by condemnation against CL&P. On November 13, 2000, the Parties requested a clarification from the CDPUC with respect to the transfer in lieu of condemnation contemplated hereunder. (E) Under the threat of said condemnation, CL&P and CRRA have been negotiating the terms and conditions under which the Acquired Assets can be obtained by CRRA from CL&P and have now concluded their negotiations and wish to set forth their understandings in this Agreement so that a transfer of the Acquired Assets can be made in lieu of a condemnation.

Such increases or reductions, as the case may be, shall be referred to herein as the "Closing Price Adjustment" and shall be determined and paid as set forth below: (a) the Initial Closing Price shall be increased to account for the following items: (i) any Pre-Approved Capital Expenditures (as set forth on Schedule 2.6(a)(i))and other Capital Commitments incurred by CL&P during the Interim Period which has not been otherwise reimbursed to CL&P; (ii) any operations and maintenance expenses paid for by CL&P during the Interim Period that CL&P would not have actually paid but for CRRA's written request; and (iii) subject to Section 5.3(b), the agreed value of all Inventories (as set forth in Schedule 2.1(b)) held by CL&P as of the Closing Date; and (b) the Initial Closing Price shall be reduced to account for (i) any capital expenditures assumed by CRRA that were not Capital Commitments (to the extent of such assumption); and (ii) CL&P's reimbursement for costs of Remediation under Section 5.12(b); (c) within thirty (30) Business Days after the Execution Date, CL&P shall prepare and deliver to CRRA an estimated statement of adjustments (the "Estimated Statement of Adjustments") that shall set forth CL&P's best estimate of all adjustments to the Initial Closing Price required by Section s 2.6(a) and 2.6(b) (the "Estimated Adjustment"). Within ten (10) Business Days following the delivery of the Estimated Statement of Adjustments by CL&P to CRRA, CRRA may object in good faith to the Estimated Adjustment in writing. If CRRA objects, the Parties shall attempt to resolve such dispute by negotiation. If the Parties are unable to resolve such dispute before five (5) Business Days prior to such proposed Closing Date (or if CRRA fails to object to the Estimated Adjustment), the Initial Closing Price shall be adjusted (the "Closing Adjustment") for the Closing by the amount of the Estimated Adjustment not in dispute (with any disputed amounts resolved in accordance with Section 2.6(d)); and (d) within thirty (30) days following the Closing Date, CL&P shall prepare and deliver to CRRA a statement that shall set forth CL&P's computation of the final Closing Price Adjustment based on Section s 2.6(a) and (b) and the components thereof taking into account actual data (the "Closing Statement").

CL&P agrees to cooperate with CRRA to provide to CRRA or CRRA's Representatives information used to prepare the Closing Statement and information relating thereto. If CRRA objects to the Closing Statement, the Parties shall attempt to resolve such dispute by negotiation. If the Parties are unable to resolve such dispute within twenty (20) days after any objection, either CL&P or CRRA may demand arbitration in accordance with Section 11.18 hereof. The agreed upon Closing Statement or the finding of such arbitration panel, as the case may be, shall be the Closing Price Adjustment and shall be binding on the Parties. Upon the determination of the Closing Price Adjustment, the Party owing a balance on account of the Closing Price Adjustment shall deliver the balance due to the other Party no later than two (2) Business Days after such determination in immediately available funds or in any other manner as reasonably requested by the payee. The balance due shall be determined by offsetting against each Party's credits and debits arising from the Closing Price Adjustment the credits and debits accorded to each Party in the Closing Statement on account of the Estimated Adjustment. The acceptance by CRRA and CL&P of the Closing Price Adjustment shall not constitute or be deemed to constitute a waiver of the rights of such Party in respect of any other provision of this Agreement. 2.7 [Reserved] 2.8 Proration. (a) The Parties agree that all of the items normally prorated in a sale of assets of the type contemplated by this Agreement, including those listed below, relating to the business and operations of the Acquired Assets, will be prorated as of the Closing Date, with CL&P liable to the extent such items relate to any period through the Closing Date, and CRRA liable to the extent such items relate to periods after the Closing Date: (i) personal property, Real Property, occupancy and water Taxes, assessments and other charges, if any, on or associated with the Acquired Assets; (ii) rent, Taxes and other items payable by or to CL&P under any of the Contracts assigned to and assumed by CRRA hereunder; (iii) any Permit, license, registration or fees with respect to any Transferable Permit associated with the Acquired Assets; and (iv) sewer rents and charges for water, telephone, electricity and other utilities.

(b) If the amount of one or more Taxes, fees or other liabilities to be prorated in accordance with Section 2.8(a) is not known or determinable on or prior to the Closing Date, the amounts to be prorated upon the Closing in accordance with Section 2.8(a) shall be based upon the actual Taxes, fees or other liabilities for the preceding year (or appropriate period) for which such actual Taxes, fees or liabilities are available. The amount of Taxes, fees or other liabilities prorated upon the Closing pursuant to Section 2.8(a) shall be adjusted upon the request of either CL&P, on the one hand, or CRRA, on the other hand, made within sixty (60) days of the date the actual amounts become available.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, and without limiting the generality of the confidentiality provisions set forth in Section 7 hereof, CL&P shall: (i) not provide any information that in CL&P's counsel's opinion constitutes or could be deemed to constitute a waiver of the attorney-client privilege, and (ii) not be required to supply CRRA with any information or records that CL&P is under a legal obligation not to supply, including, without limitation, any Employees' Records. (b) During the Interim Period, CL&P shall consult with CRRA and cooperate with CRRA's reasonable requests regarding modifications to any hardware, software or firmware (including embedded micro-controllers in non-computer equipment) included in the Acquired Assets so as to ensure to the extent practicable that on and following the Closing Date the operation of the Acquired Assets by CRRA will not be interrupted or adversely affected due to the Year 2000 Computer Problem. Any amounts expended by CL&P at the request of CRRA under this Section 5.4(b) shall constitute an adjustment to the Initial Closing Price pursuant to Section 2.6(a) hereof. (c) During the Interim Period, at the sole cost and expense of CRRA, CL&P will permit designated employees or Representatives of CRRA (the "CRRA's Observers") to observe all operations of CL&P related to the Acquired Assets and such observation shall be permitted on a cooperative basis in the presence of personnel of CL&P (which personnel shall be at CL&P's cost) during normal business hours of CL&P, provided, however, that CRRA's Observers shall not unreasonably interfere with the operation of the Acquired Assets by CL&P. 5.5 Pre-Closing Notice. (a) The Parties shall notify each other promptly if any information comes to their attention prior to the Closing that is likely (i) to excuse either party from the performance of its obligations under this Agreement or the Related Agreements or (ii) cause any condition to close set forth in Section s 6.1 or 6.2 not to be satisfied. (b) CL&P shall notify CRRA of the existence of any matter, which would, if in existence on the Execution Date or the Closing Date would or might cause any of the representations or warranties in Section 3 above to be untrue or incorrect. Unless CRRA has the right to terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 10.1(a)(vi) below by reason of such notice and exercises that right within the period of 15 days referred to in Section 10.1(a)(vi) below, the written notice pursuant to this Section 5.5(b) shall be deemed to have amended the appropriate Schedule or Schedules as of the Execution Date, to have qualified the representations and warranties contained in Section 3 above as of the Execution Date, and to have cured any misrepresentation or breach of warranty that otherwise might have existed hereunder by reason of the existence of such matter. (c) CRRA shall notify CL&P of the existence of any matter, which if in existence on the Execution Date or the Closing Date would or might cause any of the representations or warranties in Section 4 above to be untrue or incorrect. Unless CL&P has the right to terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 10.1(b)(vi) below by reason of such notice and exercises that right within the period of 15 days referred to in Section 10.1(b)(vi) below, the written notice pursuant to this Section 5.5(c) shall be deemed to have amended the appropriate Schedule or Schedules as of the Execution Date, to have qualified the representations and warranties contained in Section 4 above as of the Execution Date, and to have cured any misrepresentation or breach of warranty that otherwise might have existed hereunder by reason of the existence of such matter. 5.6 Further Assurances. (a) At any time and from time to time after the Closing, at the request of a Party, the other Party will execute and deliver such instruments of sale, transfer, conveyance, assignment and confirmation and take such action as CL&P and CRRA may both reasonably agree is necessary to transfer, convey and assign to CRRA, and to confirm CRRA's title to, or interest in, the Acquired Assets and Assumed Liabilities or to put CRRA in actual possession and operating control of the Acquired Assets. (b) In the event that any asset that is an Acquired Asset shall not have been conveyed to CRRA at the Closing, CL&P shall, subject to Section s 5.6(c), (d) and (e), use its best efforts to convey such asset to CRRA as promptly as is practicable after the Closing. (c) To the extent that CL&P's rights under any Contract may not be assigned without the consent of another Person which consent has not been obtained by the Closing Date, this Agreement shall not constitute an agreement to assign the same if an attempted assignment would constitute a breach thereof or be unlawful, and CL&P, at its expense, shall use its Commercially Reasonable Efforts to obtain any such required consent(s) as promptly as possible. CL&P and CRRA agree that if any consent to an assignment shall not be obtained, or if any attempted assignment would be ineffective or would impair CRRA's rights and obligations under the Contract in question, so that CRRA would not in effect acquire the benefit of all such rights and obligations, CL&P, to the maximum extent permitted by law and such Contract, shall, after the Closing, appoint CRRA to be CL&P's agent with respect to such Contract, and CL&P shall, to the maximum extent permitted by law and such Contract, enter into such reasonable arrangements with CRRA as are necessary to provide CRRA with the benefits and obligations of such Contract. CL&P and CRRA shall cooperate and shall each use their Commercially Reasonable Efforts after the Closing to obtain an assignment of such Contract to CRRA; provided that neither CL&P nor CRRA shall have any obligation to offer or pay any consideration in order to obtain any such consents. (d) To the extent that CL&P's rights under any warranty or guaranty described in Section 2.1(b) may not be assigned without the consent of another Person, which consent has not been obtained by the Closing Date, this Agreement shall not constitute an agreement to assign the same, if an attempted assignment would constitute a breach thereof, or be unlawful. CL&P and CRRA agree that if any consent to an assignment of any such warranty or guaranty would be ineffective or would impair CRRA's rights and obligations under the warranty or guaranty in question, so that CRRA would not in effect acquire the benefit of all such rights and obligations, CL&P shall use Commercially Reasonable Efforts, at CRRA's sole cost and expense, to the extent permitted by law and such warranty or guaranty, to enforce such warranty or guaranty for the benefit of CRRA so as, to the maximum extent possible, to provide CRRA with the benefits and obligations of such warranty or guaranty. Notwithstanding the foregoing, CL&P shall not be obligated to bring or file suit against any Third Party, provided that if CL&P shall determine not to bring or file suit after being requested by CRRA to do so, CL&P shall assign, to the extent permitted by law or any applicable agreement or contract, its rights in respect of the claims so that CRRA may bring or file such suit. (e) To the extent that any personal property lease cannot be assigned to CRRA or is not subject to arrangements described in Section 5.6(c), upon CRRA's request and at CRRA's sole expense, CL&P will use Commercially Reasonable Efforts to acquire the assets relating to such lease and to include them in the Acquired Assets before the Closing Date. 5.7 Employee Matters. (a) CRRA shall maintain, or cause the Operator to maintain, the employment of the Employees for the period ending on the first anniversary of the License Commencement Date, at levels of wages and overall compensation not lower than each such employee's level of wages and overall compensation as of the License Commencement Date; provided that nothing herein shall prevent the Employer from terminating any such employee's employment for cause during such minimum employment period. (b) CRRA shall take (or, if CRRA has caused the Operator to hire the Employees, cause the Operator to take) all action necessary and appropriate to maintain a tax qualified pension plan established for the Employees ("CRRA's Plan") consistent with the Jet License and providing, inter alia, the following: (i) The Employer shall provide a minimum level of pension benefits calculated using the pension benefit formula applicable to each Employee under the NUSCO Retirement Plan ("CL&P's Plan") as of the License Commencement Date. The Employer's minimum obligation with regard to this pension benefit will be calculated as the difference between (a) the Employee's total pension benefit as calculated as of the employee's retirement date using (i) the pension benefit formula under CL&P's Plan applicable to the employee as of the License Commencement Date, (ii) such employee's final average earnings (as defined in CL&P's Plan) as of the employee's retirement date, taking into account compensation earned from CL&P and the Employer, (iii) such employee's total years of service with CL&P and the Employer as of the employee's retirement date, and (iv) covered compensation as of the employee's retirement date, and (b) the pension benefit payable to the employee by CL&P at retirement as follows: the pension benefit payable to each Employee at age 65 by CL&P shall be calculated by CL&P as of the License Commencement Date, based upon (i) the pension benefit formula under CL&P's Plan applicable to the employee as of the License Commencement Date, (ii) years of credited service with CL&P as of the License Commencement Date, (iii) final average earnings (as defined in CL&P's Plan) as of the License Commencement Date, and (iv) covered compensation as of the License Commencement Date. This benefit shall be a vested terminated benefit subject to the vested terminated actuarial factors applied under CL&P's Plan. (ii) CL&P shall provide each Employee with a vested and non-forfeitable right to a benefit equal to his accrued benefit under CL&P's Plan determined as of the License Commencement Date as described in Section 5.7(b)(i) above. (iii) If the Employer terminates the employment of any Eligible Employee (as defined below), the Employer will provide the benefits described in Schedule 2.7(c)(iii) to the Jet License. An Eligible Employee is an employee whose age on the License Commencement Date is between 50 and 54 years, inclusive, and whose age plus years of credited service under CL&P's Plan on the same date equals or exceeds 65 years. (iv) CL&P's Plan permits employees age 55 and older to retire on or after January 1, 2000 with full pension benefits if the sum of the employee's age and years of credited service equals 85 at such employee's termination date ("Rule of 85"). The Employer shall apply the Rule of 85 to all Employees. (c) The Employer shall maintain for the Employees at least until the first anniversary of the License Commencement Date, health, life and disability plans and programs, which plans, in the aggregate, shall be generally comparable to the existing plans and programs provided to such Employees by CL&P as of the License Commencement Date as listed on Schedule 2.7(d) to the Jet License. (d) The Employer shall apply each Employee's prior service with CL&P toward any eligibility, vesting or other waiting period requirements under the Employer's Employee Benefit Plans to the extent such conditions were satisfied under CL&P's Employee Benefit Plans prior to the License Commencement Date. In addition, the Employer shall waive all limitations with respect to preexisting conditions, exclusions and waiting periods with respect to participation and coverage requirements under the Employer's Employee Benefit Plans and credit each Employee for any co-payments and deductibles paid prior to the License Commencement Date under any such plans in which each Employee participates. The Employer shall vest each Employee to the extent such employee is vested under CL&P's Employee Benefit Plans as of the License Commencement Date. (e) Within a reasonable time after the request by the Employer, CL&P shall provide the Employer with such pertinent data or information as the Employer shall reasonably require to determine each Employee's service, compensation and accrued benefits under CL&P's Plan as of the License Commencement Date. (f) CL&P shall provide and remain liable for any and all continuation of coverage under CL&P's Employee Benefit Plans as required under Section s 601 through 608 of ERISA and Section 4980B of the Code with respect to any person as to whom a "qualifying event" as defined in Section 4980 of the Code occurred on or prior to the License Commencement Date. (g) To the extent that CL&P has not already done so on or before the License Commencement Date, CL&P shall terminate the employment of the Employees and shall be solely responsible for the payment of all wages and compensation thereupon legally owing to or with respect to the Employees including, without limitation, accrued and payable vacation pay, bonuses, severance pay, overtime, and all benefits under any Employee Benefit Plan that became payable on account of such termination of employment or any other amounts to which the Employees may be entitled for services rendered prior to their termination or by virtue of their termination. CL&P shall retain any and all liability under CL&P's Employee Benefit Plans for retirees of CL&P relating to the Facilities as of the License Commencement Date. (h) CL&P agrees to timely perform and discharge all requirements under the WARN Act and under applicable state and local Laws for the notification of its employees arising from the sale of the Acquired Assets to CRRA up to and including the License Commencement Date. After the License Commencement Date, the Employer shall be responsible for performing and discharging all requirements under the WARN Act and under applicable Laws for the notification of its employees, whether Employees or otherwise. All severance and other costs associated with workforce restructuring activities associated with the Acquired Assets and/or the Employees subsequent to the License Commencement Date shall be borne solely by the Employer. 5.8 Access after Closing to CRRA and CL&P Records. (a) For a period of five (5) years after the Effective Date, CL&P shall have reasonable access to all of the records, books and documents related to the Acquired Assets to the extent that such access may reasonably be required by CL&P in connection with matters relating to or affected by the operations of CL&P prior to the Closing Date. Such access shall be afforded by CRRA upon receipt of reasonable advance notice and during normal business hours. CL&P shall be solely responsible for any costs or expenses incurred by it pursuant to this Section 5.8(a). (b) For a period of five (5) years after the Effective Date, CL&P shall have reasonable access to the Employees, for purposes of consultation or otherwise, to the extent that such access may reasonably be required by CL&P in connection with matters relating to or affected by the operations of CL&P prior to the Closing. (c) If CRRA shall desire to dispose of any records, books or documents that may relate to operation of the Acquired Assets before the Closing prior to the expiration of such five-year period, CRRA shall, prior to such disposition, give to CL&P a reasonable opportunity, at CL&P's expense, to segregate and remove during normal business hours such records, books or documents as CL&P may select. 5.9 NEPOOL. At the Closing Date, CRRA shall submit to the governance of the ISO New England as established by the NEPOOL Agreement, and CRRA shall comply with all rules and regulations of the ISO New England related to shutdown of the Facility. 5.10 Risk of Loss. Except as otherwise provided in this Section 5.10, and subject to the terms of the Jet License, during the Interim Period all risk of loss or damage to the Acquired Assets (other than, during the term of the Jet License, the Jets) shall be borne by CL&P. If during the Interim Period, the Acquired Assets (other than the Jets) are damaged by fire or other casualty (each such event, an "Event of Loss"), or are taken by a Governmental Authority by exercise of the power of eminent domain (each, a "Condemnation"), then the following provisions shall apply: (a) the occurrence of any one or more Condemnations (provided that any Condemnation proceeds are made available to CRRA at Closing), as a result of which the aggregate condemnation proceeds equal an amount less than or equal to two percent (2%) of the Initial Closing Price, shall have no effect on the transactions contemplated hereby; (b) upon the occurrence of (i) any one or more Events of Loss, or (ii) any one or more Condemnations (provided that any Condemnation proceeds are made available to CRRA at Closing), as a result of which the aggregate Condemnation proceeds equal an amount in excess of two percent (2%) of the Initial Closing Price (a "Major Loss"), CL&P shall have, in the case of a Major Loss relating to one or more Events of Loss, the option, exercised by notice to CRRA, to restore, repair or replace the damaged Acquired Assets prior to Closing. If CL&P elects to restore, repair or replace the Acquired Assets relating to a Major Loss, which election shall be made by notice to CRRA within fifteen (15) days following the occurrence of the Major Loss, the completion of the repair, replacement or restoration will be a condition to the Closing and the Closing Date shall be postponed at the election of CL&P for the amount of time reasonably necessary to complete the restoration, repair or replacement, not to exceed one hundred and eighty (180) days without CRRA's consent. If CL&P elects not to restore, repair or replace the Acquired Assets affected by a Major Loss, or such Major Loss is the result of one or more Condemnations, the provisions of Section 5.10(c) will apply; (c) in the event that CL&P elects not to restore, repair or replace a Major Loss, or in the event that CL&P, having elected to repair, replace or restore the Major Loss, fails to complete the repair, replacement or restoration within the one hundred eighty (180) days (or such longer period as CRRA shall have consented to), or in the event that a Major Loss is the result of one or more Condemnations, then the Parties shall, within thirty (30) days following CL&P's election, failure to complete, or the occurrence of such Condemnations, as the case may be, negotiate in good faith an equitable adjustment in the Closing Price to reflect the impact of the Major Loss, as mitigated by any repair, replacement or restoration work actually completed by CL&P on the Acquired Assets and proceed to conclude the Closing. To assist CRRA in its evaluation of any and all Events of Loss, CL&P shall provide CRRA such access to the Acquired Assets and such information as CRRA may reasonably request in connection therewith; and (d) in the event that the Parties fail to reach agreement on an equitable adjustment of the Closing Price within the thirty (30) days provided in Section 5.10(c), then CRRA shall have the right, exercisable by notice to CL&P within fifteen (15) days immediately following the expiration of said thirty (30) day period, to either (a) proceed with the consummation of the Closing, with a reduction in the Closing Price consistent with CL&P's last offer communicated to CRRA, in which event CL&P shall assign over or deliver to CRRA all condemnation proceeds or insurance proceeds which CL&P receives, or to which CL&P becomes entitled by virtue of the Events of Loss, less any costs and expenses reasonably incurred by CL&P in obtaining such condemnation proceeds or insurance proceeds, or (b) terminate this Agreement, in which event this Agreement shall terminate and neither Party shall thereafter have any obligation or liability to the other by reason of this Agreement. If CRRA fails to make the election within the fifteen (15) day period, CRRA will be deemed to have made the election to proceed with the Closing. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 5.10, any Event of Loss affecting all or any portion of (i) the Jets during the term of the Jet License shall be borne by CRRA and addressed in accordance with the Jet License; and/or (ii) the EGF after the Effective Date shall be borne by CRRA under the EGF License and addressed in accordance with the EGF License. Without limiting the foregoing, any such Event of Loss so affecting the Jets and/or after the Effective Date, the EGF shall not affect in any manner whatsoever the obligations of the Parties hereunder, whether as a condition to the Closing, an adjustment to the Closing Price, or otherwise. 5.11 Regulatory Approval Process. Within fifteen (15) days after the Execution Date CRRA shall promptly supply CL&P with the information in CRRA's possession requested by CL&P and required for CL&P's applications, including all required exhibits and attachments, under Section s 203 and 205 of the Federal Power Act substantially (the "FERC Applications"); within fifteen (15) days after receiving such information, CL&P shall submit draft FERC Applications in a form ready for filing with the FERC to CRRA for CRRA's review and confirmation of the information supplied by it; and CL&P shall file the FERC Applications with the FERC in accordance with the rules and regulations of the FERC within fifteen (15) days after receiving CRRA's comments. 5.12 Remediation under Environmental Laws, including the Connecticut Transfer Act. (a) Determination and Filing. CRRA agrees that the Site is an establishment as defined in the Connecticut Transfer Act (C.G.S. Section 22a- 134 et seq.), and that it is CRRA's sole and exclusive responsibility (i) to determine which form or forms must be filed under such Act; (ii) to comply, at its sole cost and expense, with any requirement for executing appropriate forms and making necessary submissions in connection with the Connecticut Transfer Act; (iii) to comply, at its sole cost and expense, with any requirement under the Connecticut Transfer Act for investigations or Remediation of Hazardous Substances Released at the Site; (iv) to pay any transfer fees due the Connecticut Department of Environmental Protection ("DEP") and other related fees or costs; and (v) to designate a party associated with the transfer of the Site or any portion thereof to be the certifying party as defined in and in accordance with such Act; provided, however, that CRRA shall be the certifying party if the DEP does not accept the party designated by CRRA. (b) CL&P Reimbursement. (i) CL&P agrees to reimburse CRRA, subject to an aggregate dollar limitation of $2,000,000, for fifty percent (50%) of the actual and verifiable costs and expenses of Remediation incurred by CRRA under Section 5.12(a). CRRA represents, and CL&P acknowledges, that in connection with the transfer of the Real Property and the granting of the purchase Option to CRRA, CRRA has entered into a contract ("Exit Strategy Contract") with TRC Companies, Inc. for the Remediation of the Site in compliance with Environmental Laws, including, without limitation, the Connecticut Transfer Act. The Exit Strategy Contract requires a fixed, upfront payment for such Remediation of the Site, which payment substantially exceeds $4,000,000. At the Closing, CRRA shall present documentation to CL&P that the cost for Remediation exceeds $4,000,000, and CL&P shall pay (through an adjustment to the Initial Closing Price under Section 2.6) CRRA $2,000,000 for such Remediation expenses. (ii) In addition and without receiving any credit for the sharing and maximum aggregate $2,000,000 payment referenced in Section 5.12(b)(i), CL&P shall pay to and indemnify CRRA for all costs or expenses of Remediation incurred by CRRA to the extent that such costs or expenses relate to the Excluded Liabilities. CRRA shall not incur such costs or expenses without CL&P's prior written consent, unless a Governmental Authority has ordered CRRA to undertake such Remediation, a Licensed Environmental Professional has required such Remediation in lieu of such an order, or such Remediation is reasonably necessary to protect the public health or safety or to preclude the further Release of Hazardous Substances. In any event (unless giving such notice is not practicable, in which case the maximum practicable advance notice, or immediate subsequent notice, shall be given), before incurring any such costs and expenses, CRRA shall provide at least thirty (30) days' notice to CL&P describing, in reasonable detail to the extent known, the Remediation to be taken, the estimated costs and expenses thereof, the actions of the Governmental Authority or Licensed Environmental Professional requiring such Remediation, and CRRA's basis for concluding that such Remediation relates to an Excluded Liability. (iii) Except for the Excluded Liabilities (including the Excluded Liabilities that are Environmental Liabilities), effective on and after the adjustment to the Initial Closing Price for the costs of Remediation required under Section 5.12(b)(i) at the Closing, CRRA does hereby, on behalf of itself, its successors, its successors in title to any portion of the Site, its Affiliates and their respective representatives, agents, directors, officers, employees, servants, and their respective successors, assigns, heirs, executors and administrators (individually and collectively, "Releasors"), irrevocably and fully release and forever discharge CL&P, its Affiliates and their respective representatives, agents, directors, trustees, officers, employees, servants, and their respective successors, assigns, heirs, executors and administrators (individually and collectively, "Releasees"), of and from all Environmental Liabilities, including, without limitation, Environmental Claims, against Releasees, that Releasors ever had, now have or which Releasors hereafter can, shall or may have for, upon, or by reasons of, any matter, cause or thing whatsoever, direct or indirect, absolute or contingent, whether presently existing or made in the future, arising from or relating to the Environmental Liabilities at the Site assumed by CRRA under Section 2.3 of this Agreement. The Excluded Liabilities are specifically excluded from the foregoing release. (iv) Effective on the Closing Date, with respect to the release set forth in Section 5.12(b)(iii), CRRA, on behalf of itself and the other Releasors, hereby irrevocably, fully and completely waives any and all rights, benefits and entitlements that each now has, or in the future may have conferred upon it by virtue of any statute or common law principle that provides that a general release does not extend to claims, losses or other liabilities that an entity does not know or suspect to exist in its favor at the time of such release, which if known, would have materially affected such person's settlement with the other entity. In furtherance of the foregoing, CRRA hereby acknowledges that factual matters now unknown to it or the other Releasors may have given or may hereafter give rise to claims, losses or other liabilities that are presently unknown, unanticipated and unsuspected, and each further expressly acknowledges that this Section 5.12 has been negotiated and agreed upon in light of that awareness. (c) Environmental Land Use Restrictions. To the extent deemed reasonable, CRRA or its assignee may elect to place Environmental Land Use Restrictions (ELURs) pursuant to C.G.S. Section 22a-133n through Section 22a- 133s and regulations promulgated thereunder, on the Hartford Land Records with reference to the entire Site or any portion thereof (collectively or individually referred to as "Subject Area"), including without limitation any Reserved Easement areas or the Retained Parcel, so as to permit CRRA or its assignee to take the benefit of less stringent remediation standards authorized by the RSRs. Such ELURs may include: (A) prohibitions on residential use of the Subject Area; (B) prohibitions on the use of groundwater for drinking or other domestic purposes; and/or (C) restrictions on the right to disturb soil or construct buildings on the Subject Area. CL&P agrees that the ELURs shall be prior in right to the Reserved Easements and shall encumber CL&P's rights to the Retained Parcel pursuant to the self- operation subordination language in the Deed. (d) Coordination of Remediation Activities. CRRA will provide CL&P with an opportunity to review and comment on any Remediation which will take place within any Reserved Easements or on the Retained Parcel. CRRA will use its best efforts to conduct any such Remediation, including in particular any excavation of soils and structures and the installation and maintenance of an engineered synthetic material cap undertaken to make soils inaccessible or environmentally isolated in accordance with the RSRs, in a manner which will not materially interfere with or delay CL&P's existing or future ability to construct, operate and maintain, in the areas affected by the Reserved Easements and/or on the Retained Parcel, underground, above-ground or on- ground electric transmission and distribution facilities, including, but not limited to, the types of facilities listed in Schedule 5.12(d). Once an area has been remediated in accordance with the RSRs, CL&P shall pay all costs to disturb and restore such area consistent with the RSRs, except for any incremental additional costs incurred as a result of CRRA's decision to use a synthetic material cap or other remediation technique which is more difficult to restore than a cap consisting of asphalt, concrete or a natural material, such as clay. CRRA shall pay any such additional incremental costs. Specifically, in the Reserved Easements or on the Retained Parcel, unless such action by CRRA does not materially increase the time frame for performing repairs and maintenance, and CRRA pays any additional costs incurred by CL&P as a result of such actions, CRRA shall not: (i) raise the grade of any area under or adjacent to any existing overhead electric lines to a point where clearances required by the National Electrical Safety Code and/or the Connecticut Department of Public Utility Control cannot be met, or that could hamper access to CL&P facilities; or (ii) use an engineered, synthetic material cap in any area containing a manhole for underground electric facilities or containing on ground or buried electric facilities such as grounding grids, counterpoise, poles and foundation that cannot reasonably be accessed through a manhole, unless the cap can be penetrated, repaired and restored at a cost and within a time frame comparable to the cost and time frame for excavating, repairing and restoring a cap composed of asphalt, concrete or a natural material such as clay. 5.13 Discharge of Environmental Liabilities. (a) In discharging its Environmental Liabilities, if any, on or after the Closing Date, pursuant to Section 2.3(a) hereof, CRRA agrees and covenants that CRRA will not prejudice or impair CL&P's rights under the Environmental Laws or interfere with CL&P's ability to contest in appropriate administrative, judicial or other proceedings its liability, if any, for Environmental Claims or Remediation. Unless otherwise agreed by the Parties, CRRA shall promptly provide to CL&P copies of all written information, plans, documents and material correspondence submitted to or received from such Governmental Authorities relating to CRRA's discharge of any Environmental Liabilities assumed pursuant to this Agreement. (b) In discharging the Excluded Liabilities relating to the Environment, if any, on or after the Closing Date, pursuant to Section 2.3(a) hereof, CL&P agrees and covenants that CL&P will not prejudice or impair CRRA's rights under the Environmental Laws or interfere with CRRA's ability to contest in appropriate administrative, judicial or other proceedings its liability, if any, for Environmental Claims or Remediation. Unless otherwise agreed by the Parties, CL&P shall promptly provide to CRRA copies of all written information, plans, documents and material correspondence submitted to or received from such Governmental Authorities relating to CL&P's discharge of such Excluded Liabilities. 6.

CRRA shall have received CRRA's Regulatory Approvals specified in Schedule 6.1(d), in each case without terms and conditions that are reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect on CL&P; (e) Absence of Litigation.

CRRA either shall be a member in good standing of NEPOOL, or shall be agreed to be bound by NEPOOL's rules and regulations in accordance with the NEPOOL Agreement. (h) Effective Date. The Effective Date has occurred, or is occurring simultaneously with the Closing. CL&P may waive any condition specified in this Section 6.2 if it executes a writing so stating at or prior to the Closing Date and such waiver shall not be considered a waiver of any other provision in this Agreement unless the writing specifically so states. 7. Confidentiality. (a) Each Receiving Party and each Representative thereof will treat and hold as confidential all of the Proprietary Information, and refrain from using any of the Proprietary Information except in connection with this Agreement and the Related Agreements and transactions contemplated hereby and thereby. In the event that the Receiving Party or any Representative thereof is requested or required (including, without limitation, (i) pursuant to any rule or regulation of any stock exchange or other self- regulatory organization upon which any of the Receiving Party's securities are listed or (ii) by applicable Law and/or by oral question or request for information or documents in any legal proceeding, including without limitation CRRA's Regulatory Approval and CL&P's Regulatory Approval processes, interrogatory, subpoena, civil investigative demand, or similar process) to disclose any Proprietary Information, the Receiving Party will notify the Disclosing Party promptly of the request or requirement so that the Disclosing Party may seek an appropriate protective order or waive compliance with the provisions of this Section 7. If, in the absence of a protective order or the receipt of a waiver hereunder, the Receiving Party or any Representative thereof is, on the advice of counsel, compelled to disclose any Proprietary Information pursuant to any such request or requirement, then the Receiving Party or such Representative may disclose the Proprietary Information so requested or required to be disclosed; provided, however, that the Receiving Party shall use its reasonable best efforts to obtain, at the request of the Disclosing Party, an order or other assurance that confidential treatment will be accorded to such portion of the Proprietary Information required to be disclosed as the Disclosing Party shall designate. If this Agreement is terminated pursuant to Section 10.1 hereof, then each Receiving Party shall deliver promptly to the Disclosing Party or destroy, at the request and option of the Disclosing Party, all tangible embodiments (and all copies) of the Proprietary Information which are in its possession. (b) The obligations of the Parties contained in this Section 7 shall be in full force and effect for three years from the Execution Date and will survive the termination of this Agreement, the discharge of all other obligations owed by the Parties to each other and any transfer of title to the Acquired Assets. (c) Upon the Disclosing Party's prior written approval (which will not be unreasonably withheld), the Receiving Party may provide Proprietary Information to the DPUC, the FERC, the SEC or any other Governmental Authority with jurisdiction, as necessary, to obtain any consents, waivers or approvals as may be required for the Receiving Party to undertake the transactions contemplated herein. The Receiving Party will seek confidential treatment for such Proprietary Information provided to any such Governmental Authority (if such confidential treatment is available from the appropriate Governmental Authority) and the Receiving Party will notify the Disclosing Party as far in advance as is practicable of its intention to release to any such Governmental Authority any such Proprietary Information. 8. Taxes. (a) The Parties contemplate that the conveyance of the Real Property will be exempt from conveyance and other sales and transfer Taxes pursuant to C.G.S. Section 12-498 and 12-412(1)(A). To the extent that such exemption is not available due to the acts or omissions of either Party, the Party responsible for such act or omission shall bear the resulting transfer Tax. (b) With respect to Taxes to be prorated in accordance with Section 2.8 of this Agreement only, to the extent it is required to do so by Law, CRRA shall prepare and timely file all Tax Returns required to be filed after the Closing with respect to the Acquired Assets, if any, and shall duly and timely pay all such Taxes shown to be due on such Tax Returns. CRRA's preparation of any such Tax Returns shall be subject to CL&P's approval, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld. No later than twenty-five (25) Business Days prior to the due date of any such Tax Return, CRRA shall make such Tax Return available for CL&P's review and approval. CL&P shall respond no later than ten (10) Business Days prior to the due date for filing such Tax Return. With respect to such Tax Return, CL&P shall pay to CRRA its appropriate share of the amount shown as due on the Tax Returns determined in accordance with Section 2.8 of this Agreement. If CRRA determines that it is not required by Law to file certain Tax Returns, and accordingly does not do so, then CRRA agrees, to the extent permitted by Law, to indemnify CL&P against and hold CL&P harmless from, any and all losses, costs, Liabilities and expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys' fees) suffered or incurred by CL&P as a result of such decision not to so file, other than the Tax allocated to CL&P in accordance with Section 2.8. (c) Each of CRRA and CL&P shall provide the other with such assistance as may reasonably be requested by the other Party in connection with the preparation of any Tax Return, any audit or other examination by any taxing authority, or any judicial or administrative proceedings relating to liability for Taxes, and each will retain and provide the requesting Party with any records or information which may be relevant to such Tax Return, audit or examination, proceedings or determination. Any information obtained pursuant to this Section 8 or pursuant to any other Section hereof providing for the sharing of information or review of any Tax Return or other schedule relating to Taxes shall be deemed to be and shall be Proprietary Information. 9. Survival of Representations and Warranties; Effect of Closing and Indemnification. 9.1 Survival of Representations and Warranties; Survival of Covenants and Agreements. The representations and warranties of CL&P set forth in Section s 3.1, 3.2, 3.3, 3.4 and 3.13, and the representations and warranties of CRRA set forth in Section s 4.1, 4.2, 4.3 and 4.4, shall survive the Closing for a period one (1) year after the Closing Date; all other representations and warranties of the Parties contained in this Agreement shall terminate at the Closing and all representations and warranties of the Parties contained in this Agreement shall terminate upon a termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 10.1. The covenants of the Parties contained in this Agreement, other than those set forth in this Article 9 and those which by their terms survive the Closing and/or termination of this Agreement, shall terminate at the Closing or the termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 10.1. 9.2 Effect of Closing. Upon the Closing, any condition to the obligations of either Party hereunder that has not been satisfied, or any representation, warranty or covenant that has been breached or left unsatisfied by either Party will be deemed waived by the Parties, and each Party will be deemed to fully release and forever discharge the other Party on account of any and all claims, demands or charges, known or unknown, with respect to the same. Nothing in this Section 9.2 shall be deemed to affect any provision herein which expressly survives the Closing or pertains to matters which will occur after the Closing. 9.3 Indemnity by CL&P. CL&P shall, to the extent permitted by law, indemnify, defend and hold harmless CRRA against and in respect of all Liabilities, obligations, judgments, Liens, injunctions, charges, orders, decrees, rulings, damages, assessments, Taxes, losses, fines, penalties, damages, expenses, fees, costs, and amounts paid in settlement (including reasonable consultants', attorneys' and expert witness fees and disbursements in connection with investigating, defending or settling any action or threatened action), arising out of any claim, complaint, demand, cause of action, audit, investigation, hearing, action, suit or other proceeding asserted or initiated or otherwise existing in respect of any matter (collectively, the "Losses"), that results from: (a) any Liability of CL&P that becomes a Liability of CRRA under any bulk transfer law of any jurisdiction; (b) any Excluded Liability, including, without limitation, any Environmental Liabilities excluded under Section 2.4; (c) any material breach by CL&P of any representation or warranty which by its terms survives the Closing or the termination of this Agreement under Section 10.1 hereof, provided that the Losses associated therewith have a Material Adverse Effect; or (d) any material breach by CL&P of any of its covenants contained herein. 9.4 Indemnity by CRRA. CRRA hereby agrees, to the extent permitted by Law, to indemnify, defend and hold harmless CL&P and its Affiliates against and in respect of all Losses that result from: (a) any Third Party Claim against CL&P based on or relating to the ownership, operation or use of the Acquired Assets on or after the Closing Date; (b) the Assumed Liabilities; (c) any material breach by CRRA of any representation or warranty which by its terms survives the Closing or the termination of this Agreement under Section 10.1 hereof; or (d) any material breach by CRRA of any of its covenants contained herein. 9.5 Exclusive Remedy. From and after the Closing, the remedies set forth in this Section 9 shall constitute the sole and exclusive remedies for any and all claims, damages, complaints, demands, causes of action, investigations, hearings, actions, suits or other proceedings relating to this Agreement and are in lieu of any and all other rights and remedies which CL&P or CRRA may have under this Agreement or otherwise for monetary relief with respect to any breach or failure to perform or with respect to the Assumed or Excluded Liabilities. Each Party waives any provision of law to the extent that it would limit or restrict the agreements contained in this Section 9. Nothing herein shall prevent either Party from terminating this Agreement in accordance with Section 10. 9.6 Matters Involving Third Parties. (a) If any Third Party shall notify any Party (the "Indemnified Party") with respect to any matter (a "Third Party Claim") which may give rise to a claim for indemnification against any other Party (the "Indemnifying Party") under this Section 9, then the Indemnified Party shall promptly notify the Indemnifying Party thereof in writing and inquire as to whether the Indemnifying Party intends to defend the Indemnified Party against such Third Party Claim; provided, however, that no delay on the part of the Indemnified Party in notifying the Indemnifying Party shall relieve the Indemnifying Party from any obligation hereunder unless (and then solely to the extent) the Indemnifying Party thereby is prejudiced. (b) Any Indemnifying Party will have the right to defend the Indemnified Party against the Third Party Claim at the cost and expense of the Indemnifying Party with counsel of its choice so long as the Indemnifying Party notifies the Indemnified Party in writing within fifteen (15) days after the Indemnified Party has given notice of the Third Party Claim that (i) the Indemnifying Party will indemnify, to the extent permitted by Law, the Indemnified Party from and against the entirety of any Losses the Indemnified Party may suffer resulting from, arising out of, relating to, in the nature of, or caused by the Third Party Claim, and (ii) the Indemnifying Party will not seek to assert against the Indemnified Party any legal defense to its indemnification obligations hereunder with respect to the Third Party Claim. (c) So long as the Indemnifying Party is conducting the defense of the Third Party Claim, (i) the Indemnified Party may retain separate co-counsel at its sole cost and expense and participate in the defense of the Third Party Claim, (ii) the Indemnified Party will not consent to the entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement with respect to the Third Party Claim without the prior written consent of the Indemnifying Party (which consent shall not unreasonably be withheld), and (iii) the Indemnifying Party will not consent to the entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement with respect to the Third Party Claim unless written agreement is obtained releasing the Indemnified Party from all liability thereunder. (d) In the event that the Indemnifying Party does not send the notice provided for in Section 9.6(b) within fifteen (15) days after the Indemnified Party has given notice of the Third Party Claim to the Indemnifying Party, then the Indemnified Party shall thereafter be entitled to defend against the Third Party Claim with counsel of its choice and the Indemnifying Party's right to defend against the Third Party Claim shall terminate. The Indemnifying Party will reimburse the Indemnified Party for the reasonable costs of defending against the Third Party Claim (including reasonable attorneys' fees and expenses) in addition to paying any amounts to which the Indemnified Party is otherwise entitled to from the Indemnifying Party hereunder. 9.7 Net of Taxes and Insurance. Any calculation of a Loss under this Section 9 shall, in each case, give full effect to (i) any and all income Tax benefits to the Indemnified Party in respect of the Loss, and (ii) any and all insurance proceeds received or payable to the Indemnified Party in respect of the Loss. 9.8. No Recourse. To the extent the transfer, conveyance, assignment and delivery of the Acquired Assets to CRRA as provided in this Agreement is accomplished by any instrument of transfer and conveyance, whether executed at the Closing or thereafter, these instruments are made without representation or warranty by, or recourse against, CL&P, except as expressly provided in this Agreement. 10.

If the Termination Agreement is terminated in accordance with Section 10.3 of the Termination Agreement, this Agreement shall terminate without Liability of either Party to the other Party, the Parties shall have no further rights or obligations hereunder, and the transaction contemplated hereby shall be deemed to be abandoned and terminated in all respects, except for any provisions which by their terms survive such termination. 10.3 Effect of Termination.

Miscellaneous. 11.1 Press Releases and Public Announcements. No Party shall issue any press release or make any public announcement relating to the subject matter of this Agreement prior to the Closing without the prior approval of the other Party; provided, however, that any Party may make any public disclosure it believes in good faith is required by applicable law or any listing or trading agreement concerning its publicly-traded securities (in which case the disclosing Party will provide the other Party with the opportunity to review in advance the disclosure). 11.2 No Third Party Beneficiaries. This Agreement shall not confer any rights or remedies upon any Third Party. 11.3 No Joint Venture.

If and to the extent that any laws or regulations that govern any aspect of this Agreement shall change, so as to make any aspect of this transaction unlawful, then the Parties agree to make such modifications to this Agreement as may be reasonably necessary for this Agreement to accommodate any such legal or regulatory changes. 11.11 Nondiscrimination in Employment. (a) CL&P agrees and warrants that, in the performance of this Agreement, CL&P will not discriminate or permit discrimination against any person or group of persons on the grounds of race, color, religious creed, age, marital status, national origin, ancestry, sex, mental retardation or physical disability, including, but not limited to, blindness, unless it is shown by CL&P that such disability prevents performance of the work involved, in any manner prohibited by the laws of the United States or of the State of Connecticut. CL&P further agrees to take affirmative action to ensure that applicants with job related qualifications are employed and that employees are treated when employed without regard to their race, color, religious creed, age, marital status, national origin, ancestry, sex, mental retardation, or physical disability, including, but not limited to, blindness, unless it is shown by CL&P that such disability prevents performance of the work involved. CL&P agrees, in all solicitations or advertisements for employees placed by or on behalf of CL&P, to state that it is an "affirmative action-equal opportunity employer" in accordance with regulations adopted by the Connecticut Commission on Human Rights and Opportunities (the "Commission"). CL&P agrees to provide each labor union or representative of workers with which CL&P has a collective bargaining agreement or other contract or understanding and each vendor with which CL&P has a contract or understanding, a notice to be provided by the Commission, advising the labor union or workers' representative of CL&P's commitments under C.G.S.

Section s 4a-60, 46a-68e and 46a-68f, inclusive, and with each regulation or relevant order issued by the Commission pursuant to C.G.S. Section s 46a-56, 46a-68e and 46a-68f. CL&P agrees to provide the Commission with such information requested by the Commission, and permit access to pertinent books, records and accounts concerning the employment practices and procedures of CL&P as relate to the applicable provisions of C.G.S. Section s 4a-60 and 46a-56.

Section s 4a-60a and 46a-56. 11.12 Amendments and Waivers. No amendment of any provision of this Agreement shall be valid unless the same shall be in writing and signed by CRRA and CL&P. No waiver by any Party of any default, misrepresentation, or breach of warranty or covenant hereunder, whether intentional or not, shall be deemed to extend to any prior or subsequent default, misrepresentation, or breach of warranty or covenant hereunder or affect in any way any rights arising by virtue of any prior or subsequent such occurrence. 11.13 Severability. Any term or provision of this Agreement that is invalid or unenforceable in any situation in any jurisdiction shall not affect the validity or enforceability of the remaining terms and provisions hereof or the validity or enforceability of the offending term or provision in any other situation or in any other jurisdiction. 11.14 Expenses. Each of CRRA and CL&P will bear its own costs and expenses incurred in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby (including legal and accounting fees and expenses, except as otherwise provided in Section 9 above), except that CRRA shall bear the entire cost of the Joint Application for authorization pursuant to Section s 203 and 205 of the Federal Power Act. 11.15 Construction. Ambiguities or uncertainties in the wording of this Agreement will not be construed for or against any Party, but will be construed in the manner that most accurately reflects the Parties' intent as of the Execution Date. The Parties acknowledge that they have been represented by counsel in connection with the review and execution of this Agreement, and, accordingly, there shall be no presumption that this Agreement or any provision hereof be construed against the Party that drafted this Agreement. 11.16 Incorporation of Exhibits and Schedules. The Exhibits and Schedules identified in this Agreement are incorporated herein by reference and made a part hereof. 11.17 Specific Performance. Each of the Parties acknowledges and agrees that the other Party would be damaged irreparably in the event any of the provisions of this Agreement are not performed in accordance with their specific terms or otherwise are breached. Accordingly, each of the Parties agrees that the other Party shall be entitled to an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of the provisions of this Agreement and to enforce specifically this Agreement and the terms and provisions hereof in any action instituted in any court of the United States or any state thereof having jurisdiction over the Parties and the matter in addition to any other remedy to which it may be entitled, at law or in equity. 11.18 Dispute Resolution. CL&P and CRRA recognize that controversies may arise in connection with their respective performance under this Agreement which cannot be resolved by mutual agreement. All disputes arising under this Agreement shall be resolved in the following manner: Any controversy or dispute arising under this Agreement or with respect to the performance or non-performance of any obligations by the Parties shall be resolved by binding arbitration to be conducted in Hartford, Connecticut in accordance with the procedures and requirements set forth in this Section . Such resolution shall be final and conclusive as to matters submitted to arbitration, and any such arbitration award may be enforced in any court of competent jurisdiction. Each Party shall give written notice to the other of the existence and nature of any dispute proposed to be arbitrated in sufficient detail. If, within fifteen (15) Business Days, the dispute is not resolved through negotiations, then either Party may initiate arbitration by appointing a person to serve as one of the arbitrators and so advising the other Party in writing. Within ten (10) Business Days after the appointment of the first arbitrator, the other Party shall by written notice appoint a second person as an arbitrator and the two thus appointed shall select a third arbitrator to serve as chairperson of the panel of arbitrators. However, if the two arbitrators appointed by the Parties shall be unable to agree upon the appointment of the third arbitrator within five (5) Business Days after the appointment of the second arbitrator, both shall give written notice of such failure to agree to the Parties, and, if the Parties fail to agree upon the selection of such third arbitrator within five (5) Business Days after the arbitrators appointed by the Parties give such notice, then either of the Parties upon written notice to the other may require such appointment from and pursuant to the commercial arbitration rules of the American Arbitration Association. Prior to appointment, each arbitrator shall agree to conduct such arbitration in accordance with the terms of this Section . The three arbitrators shall determine all matters by majority vote. To the extent not in conflict with the procedures set forth herein, which shall govern, such arbitration shall be held in accordance with the prevailing rules of the American Arbitration Association for commercial arbitration. The Parties shall have sixty (60) calendar days from the date the third arbitrator is appointed to perform discovery and present evidence and argument to the arbitrators. During that period the arbitrators shall be available to receive and consider all such evidence as is relevant and, within reasonable limits due to the restricted time period, to hear as much of such argument as possible, giving a fair allocation of time to each Party to the arbitration. The arbitrators shall use all reasonable means to expedite discovery and to sanction noncompliance with reasonable discovery requests or any discovery order. The arbitrators shall not consider any evidence or argument not presented during such period and shall not extend such period except by the written consent of both Parties. At the conclusion of such period the arbitrators shall have forty-five (45) calendar days to reach a determination. The arbitrators shall have the right only to interpret and apply the terms of this Agreement and may not change any such terms, deprive any Party hereto of any right or remedy expressly provided hereunder, or provide any right or remedy that has been excluded hereunder. The arbitrators shall not have the right to award legal fees or any types of damages specifically excluded under Section 11.20. The majority of the arbitrators shall give written notice to the Parties stating their determination and their findings of fact and conclusions of law, and shall furnish to each Party a copy thereof signed by them within ten (10) calendar days from the date of such determination. The determination of the majority of the arbitrators shall be conclusive and binding upon the Parties and may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction as a stipulation of the Parties. The Parties shall each pay fifty percent (50%) of the cost of the arbitrators. 11.19 Impairment of Obligations. The pledge of the State of Connecticut provided for in C.G.S. Section 22a-274 is hereby included in this Agreement. By that provision, the State agrees not to limit or alter the rights vested in CRRA by Chapter 446e of the Connecticut General Statutes until this Agreement is fully performed by CRRA unless adequate provision shall be made by law for the protection of CL&P. CRRA agrees not to take any action the result of which might be to adversely affect the benefits to CL&P of such statutory provision. 11.20 No Consequential Damages. Neither CRRA nor CL&P shall be liable to the other for any special, indirect, incidental, consequential, punitive or exemplary damages of any kind whatsoever, whether based on contract, warranty, tort (including negligence, absolute or strict liability, ultrahazardous activity or statutory liability) or otherwise, in connection with the performance of this Agreement, except as set forth in Section 9 with respect to Third Party Claims. This Section 11.20 shall not affect the obligations of the Parties with respect to damages specifically provided for herein.

(c) Except as set forth in the Interconnection Agreement, nothing shall be attached by CRRA to the property of CL&P installed by virtue of the Reserved Easements except such things as are placed thereon by CL&P. (d) CRRA shall have the right to use the Transmission/Distribution Area for (i) agricultural purposes other than the growing of trees and shrubs; (ii) other purposes which, in the commercially reasonable opinion of CL&P, do not interfere with the exercise of the Reserved Easements, or any of them, and which do not create a hazard; and (iii) the uses that are permitted by guidelines adopted from time to time by CL&P as to uses that can be conducted within the limits of areas crossed by its overhead and/or underground electric lines. (e) CRRA shall, upon request by CL&P, assist CL&P, at CL&P's cost, under CL&P's reasonable direction, in obtaining all permits, licenses, exemptions, waivers and other forms of approvals necessary and appropriate for CL&P's exercise of its rights under the Reserved Easements. In effectuation of CRRA's assistance hereunder, and without limiting the foregoing, CRRA, upon request by CL&P, promptly shall execute any and all such applications, petitions, and other documents that, pursuant to law or regulation, or in CL&P's reasonable opinion, require CRRA's signature provided the same do not impose any liability or obligations on CRRA. (f) Other than as set forth in the following subparagraph (i), no cessation of use or operation of all or any portion of the Reserved Easements or of the Reserved Easement Areas by CL&P shall be deemed an abandonment thereof resulting in the termination of any aspect of the Reserved Easements, unless the holder of the Reserved Easements at the time of such cessation of use or operation releases to CRRA, in a written instrument in recordable form, its right in such Reserved Easements or any one or more of the same. (g) CL&P shall have no rights in, or of use or access over, portions of the Premises outside the Reserved Easement Areas (the "Non-Easement Area") except (A) as set forth in Article III 1.(b) and III 1.(c) above, (B) as set forth in the Interconnection Agreement (C) CL&P shall have the right to own, operate, use, maintain, repair, replace and inspect (but not enhance or expand) the existing transmission, distribution and communication facilities including, without limitation, relays, controls, indicators, gauges, control cables and monitoring equipment as now located on or under the Premises outside of the Reserved Easement Areas but not including any microwave communications if the same currently exist and (D) CL&P shall have the non-exclusive rights and easements to install, test, repair, maintain, replace, relocate and operate cables, conduits and other appurtenances for telecommunication purposes, including the transmission of voice and data, to the phone room in the main plant on Parcel 2 and from there to (x) the so-called jet shop on Parcel 2, (y) the substation control houses on the Retained Parcel and (z) such other locations that the Parties may mutually agree upon from time to time, those telecommunication facilities shall be for purposes of communications to facilities operated by CL&P on Parcel 2 and/or the Retained Parcel and shall be in locations that are mutually acceptable to the Parties, from time to time; the present locations of such facilities are hereby approved (those rights set forth in clause (A), (B), (C) and (D) of this Article IV(g) herein (the "Reserved Additional Easements"). (h) The preceding paragraph notwithstanding, CL&P shall have the right to operate, and maintain, repair and replace (but not enhance or expand) gas, water and sewer lines in their present locations to provide such services to the control buildings, located on Parcel 3A; and CRRA shall have the right to construct, operate, maintain, repair and replace gas, water, and other utility lines in mutually acceptable locations and of mutually acceptable design within the Reserved Easement Areas to the extent reasonably necessary for CRRA's existing or future use of the Non-Easement Area; provided, however, that: (i) in no event shall the construction, use and operation of such utility lines interfere with or be inconsistent with the rights and activities of the other Party (provided, that the use, operation and maintenance of the existing utility lines permitted by the Reserved Additional Easements by CL&P shall not be deemed to interfere with or be inconsistent with the rights and activities of CRRA) and (ii) said utility lines shall be subject to relocation (x) at the reasonable request (and the sole cost and expense) of CL&P in the case of lines placed by CRRA within the Reserved Easement Areas or (y) the reasonable request of CRRA pursuant and subject to the terms and provisions of the following subparagraph (i) in the case of Reserved Additional Easements within the Non-Easement Area. (i) Within a reasonable period of time, giving due consideration to CL&P's engineering and construction resources and commitments, following the receipt of a written request from CRRA, CL&P shall relocate the relevant portions of its improvements, facilities and equipment from the Transmission/Distribution Area or the Non-Easement Area provided: (i) the relocation shall be at the sole cost and expense of CRRA and all costs and expenses incurred by CL&P, including all costs and expenses to obtain the permits and approvals in the following subparagraph (ii), will be reimbursed to CL&P within ten (10) days after written demand therefore by CL&P; (ii) all permits and approvals required by any Governmental Authority for the removal and construction of new improvements, facilities and equipment (the "New CL&P Facilities") within the balance of the Transmission/ Distribution Area and/or an area provided by CRRA to CL&P (collectively the "Relocation Area") have been obtained by CL&P and CRRA shall at its sole cost and expense obtain all approvals that are required by any Governmental Authority because the area for the New CL&P Facilities is a wetland; (iii) the proposed location for the New CL&P Facilities in the Relocation Area is suitable and appropriate for such intended uses and is consistent with sound engineering principles and Good Utility Practices; and (iv) with respect to the relocation of Facilities from the Transmission/Distribution Area, CRRA shall, at its sole cost and expense, obtain for, or grant to CL&P, permanent rights in the same form as the rights with respect to such facilities prior to relocation as set forth in this Deed, free and clear of liens (or otherwise with subordinations thereof to CL&P's rights), for any portion of a Relocation Area that is located outside of the Transmission/Distribution Area; (v) with respect to the relocation of facilities which exist as a Reserved Additional Easement, CRRA shall, at its sole cost and expense, obtain for, or grant to, CL&P, permanent rights in the same form as the rights with respect to such facilities prior to relocation as set forth in this Deed, free and clear of liens (or otherwise with subordinations thereof to CL&P's rights), for any portion of a Relocation Area that is located outside of a Transmission/Distribution Area; (vi) the parties shall reasonably coordinate their activities to minimize the disruption of CL&P's operations and to avoid, to the fullest extent possible, any threat to transmission or distribution system reliability and/or the provision of energy services to CL&P's customers. Upon the completion of the relocation of the CL&P improvements, facilities and equipment, the completion of the engineering and construction of the New CL&P Facilities in the Relocation Area, and upon the receipt of full reimbursement by CRRA to CL&P for the costs and expenses as provided in this subparagraph (i), CL&P shall promptly execute and deliver to CRRA an affidavit to that affect, and upon the recording of said affidavit in the Hartford Land Records, all of the Reserved Easements and the Related Covenants and Agreements will cease and terminate as to so much of the Reserved Easement Areas that is no longer needed by CL&P for its T&D Facilities as reasonably determined by reference to then existing safety codes, governmental rules and regulations and Good Utility Practices, but such termination will not adversely affect the Reserved Easements and/or the Related Covenants and Agreements as to the balance of the Reserved Easement Areas. (j) All future construction by CL&P of T&D Facilities within the limits of the Transmission/Distribution Area that are in addition to those T&D Facilities now located thereon, shall be completed in compliance with the applicable requirements of all Governmental Authorities having jurisdiction and the applicable requirements of the National Electrical Safety Code, in both cases, based on the assumption that the owner of the land adjacent to the Transmission/Distribution Area has constructed improvements on its land up to the edge of the Transmission/Distribution Area. (k) No conveyance, assignment or transfer (each a "Conveyance") of the Premises, the Reserved Easements, the Related Covenants and Agreements or any of them, or of rights or obligations under this Deed by either CL&P or CRRA, shall relieve the party making the Conveyance, from full liability and financial responsibility for the performance of its obligations hereunder after any such Conveyance unless and until the transferee or the assignee of the Conveyance agrees in writing to assume the obligations under this Deed of the party making the Conveyance and the other party to this Deed has consented in writing to such assumption, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld. (l) Except for the Excluded Liabilities, effective on and after the Effective Date CRRA does hereby, on behalf of itself, its successors, its successors in title to the Premises, its Affiliates and their respective representatives, agents, directors, officers, trustees, employees, servants, and their respective successors, assigns, heirs, executors and administrators (individually and collectively, "Releasors"), irrevocably and fully release and forever discharge CL&P, its Affiliates and their respective representatives, agents, directors, trustees, officers, employees, servants, and their respective successors, assigns, heirs, executors and administrators (individually and collectively, "Releasees"), of and from all Environmental Liabilities, including Environmental Claims, which against Releasees, Releasors ever had, now have or which Releasors hereafter can, shall or may have for, upon, or by reasons of, any matter, cause or thing whatsoever, direct or indirect, absolute or contingent, whether presently existing or made in the future arising from or relating to the Environmental Liabilities at the Site assumed by CRRA under Section 2.3 of the Transfer Agreement. The Excluded Liabilities are specifically excluded from the foregoing release. (m) Effective on the Closing Date, with respect to the release set forth in Article IV (l) above, CRRA, on behalf of itself and the other Releasors, hereby irrevocably, fully and completely waives any and all rights, benefits and entitlements that each now has, or in the future may have conferred upon it by virtue of any statute or common law principle that provides that a general release does not extend to claims, losses or other liabilities that an entity does not know or suspect to exist in its favor at the time of such release, which if known, would have materially affected such person's settlement with the other entity. In furtherance of the foregoing, CRRA hereby acknowledges that factual matters now unknown to it or the other Releasors may have given or may hereafter give rise to claims, losses or other liabilities that are presently unknown, unanticipated and unsuspected, and each further expressly acknowledges that this Section of the Deed has been negotiated and agreed upon in light of that awareness. (n) CRRA (including any Releasor for the purposes of this paragraph) will provide CL&P with an opportunity to review and comment on any Remediation which will take place within any Reserved Easement Area, within any area within which a Reserved Additional Easement is located or on the Retained Parcel. CRRA will use its best efforts to conduct any such Remediation, including in particular any excavation of soils and structures and the installation and maintenance of an engineered synthetic material cap undertaken to make soils inaccessible or environmentally isolated in accordance with the RSRs, in a manner which will not materially interfere with or delay CL&P's existing or future ability to construct, operate and maintain in the Reserved Easement Area, the area affected by the Reserved Additional Easements, and/or on the Retained Parcel, underground, above-ground or on-ground electric transmission and distribution facilities, including, but not limited to, the types of facilities listed in Exhibit D hereto. Once an area has been remediated in accordance with the RSRs, CL&P shall pay all costs to disturb and restore such area consistent with the RSRs, except for any incremental additional costs incurred as a result of CRRA's decision to use a synthetic material cap or other remediation technique which is more difficult to restore than a cap consisting of asphalt, concrete or a natural material, such as clay. CRRA shall pay any such additional incremental costs. Specifically, in the Reserved Easement Areas, the area affected by the Reserved Additional Easements, or on the Retained Parcel, unless such action by CRRA does not materially increase the time frame for performing repairs and maintenance, and CRRA pays any additional costs incurred by CL&P as a result of such actions, CRRA shall not: (i) raise the grade of any area under or adjacent to any existing overhead electric lines to a point where clearances required by the National Electrical Safety Code and/or the Connecticut Department of Public Utility Control cannot be met, or that could hamper access to CL&P facilities; or (ii) use an engineered, synthetic material cap in any area containing a manhole for underground electric facilities or containing on ground or buried electric facilities such as grounding grids, counterpoise, poles and foundations that cannot reasonably be accessed through a manhole, unless the cap can be penetrated, repaired and restored at a cost and within a time frame comparable to the cost and time frame for excavating, repairing and restoring a cap composed of asphalt, concrete or a natural material such as clay. (o) To the extent deemed reasonable, CRRA or its assignee may elect to place Environmental Land Use Restrictions ("ELURs") pursuant to C.G.S. Section 22a-133n through Section 22a-133s and regulations promulgated thereunder, on the Hartford Land Records with reference to the entire Site or any portion thereof (collectively or individually referred to as "Subject Area") including without limitation upon (i) any Reserved Easement Area, (ii) any area within which a Reserved Additional Easement is located and (iii) the Retained Parcel, so as to permit CRRA or its assignee to take the benefit of less stringent remediation standards authorized by RSRs. Such ELURs may include: (A) prohibitions on residential use of the Subject Area; (B) prohibitions on the use of groundwater for drinking or other domestic purposes; and/or (C) restrictions on the right to disturb soil or construct buildings on the Subject Area. (p) Pursuant to Connecticut General Statutes Section 22a-133o(b), Revision of 1958, revised to January 1, 1999 and Section 22a-133q-1(h) of the RCSA, CL&P hereby irrevocably subordinates its interest in the Reserved Easements, the Reserved Additional Easements and the Retained Parcel to any environmental land use restriction that may be placed on the Premises or the Retained Parcel by CRRA or its designee in accordance with RCSA Section 22a-133q, provided, however, that nothing in this subparagraph (p) shall amend, abridge or abrogate any other provisions of this Article IV. (q) The term "including" when used in the Closing Deed shall be by way of example only and shall not be considered in any way to be in limitation. In the Closing Deed, the singular includes the plural and the plural the singular; references to Laws, unless otherwise specified, shall be deemed to include all corresponding provisions of subsequent or superseding laws and regulations affecting the same; references to agreements and other contractual instruments, unless otherwise specified, shall be deemed to include all subsequent amendments and other modifications to such instruments in accordance with the terms thereof; and the phrase "and/or" shall (unless otherwise expressly provided) be deemed to mean the words both preceding and following such phrase, or either of them.

To (i) lay, construct, maintain, operate, use, alter, replace and rebuild within Easement Area J as described in Exhibit E attached hereto ("Easement Area J") and within Easement Area K as described in Exhibit F attached hereto ("Easement Area K") a roadway to provide vehicular and pedestrian passage over and through Easement Area J and Easement Area K; (ii) pass and repass by foot or vehicle over said roadways for all purposes for which a public highway generally is used and (ii) enter upon said Easement Area J and Easement Area K for the purpose of constructing, reconstructing, inspecting and maintaining any road constructed thereon. 2. To (i) lay, construct, maintain, operate, use, replace, repair and rebuild under Easement Area J electric, telephone, gas, water and other utility systems, a sewerage system and a storm drainage system, consisting of wires, cables, conduits, pipes and other fixtures and appurtenances, including manholes, useful for providing electric, telephone, gas, water and other utility service and for providing a sewerage system and/or a storm drainage system servicing land of CRRA; (ii) provide electric, telephone, gas, water and other utility services and sewage disposal and storm drainage by means of the same; and (iv) enter upon Easement Area J for the purposes of constructing, reconstructing, inspecting or maintaining the same. 3. Own, operate, use, maintain, repair, replace and inspect (but not enhance or expand) on and under the Retained Parcel, CRRA's facilities, if any, and the existing facilities that were acquired by CRRA from CL&P by virtue of the Closing Deed or the Closing Bill of Sale and which are used in connection with the generation facilities on the Premises pursuant to the terms of the Interconnection Agreement. 4. To enter upon the Retained Parcel for the purposes of performing, and the right to perform, Remediation within the Retained Parcel as required by any obligations which CRRA has to CL&P resulting from the Transfer Agreement. 5. To place restrictions upon the Premises and the Retained Parcel by recording ELURs on the Hartford Land Records as provided in Article IV(o) of the Related Covenants and Agreements which ELURs shall be prior in right to CL&P's rights under the Retained Easements, the Retained Additional Easements and to CL&P's rights within the Retained Parcel, all as defined in the attached Exhibit A. 6. To drain storm water from the Premises onto Parcel 1. CL&P acknowledges and agrees that the existing topography of the Premises and Parcel 1 is such that storm water currently drains from the Premises onto Parcel 1. CL&P further acknowledges that by virtue of CRRA's Remediation activities on the Premises which CRRA is required to perform in connection with its acquisition of the Premises hereunder, increased amounts of storm water from that which currently occurs may drain onto Parcel 1. CRRA agrees that if, at no expense to CRRA, (i) CL&P constructs an underground storm water drainage system to carry storm water from Parcel 1 into a municipal storm water drainage system, (ii) CL&P obtains all necessary permits and approvals for storm water runoff from the Premises to discharge into such municipal storm water drainage system and (iii) CL&P will pay all costs to construct an underground storm water drainage system on the Premises (including any costs of Remediation which is required due to the construction of such underground storm water drainage system) to collect the storm water which would otherwise drain onto Parcel 1 and have it instead collect in, and run through, such storm water drainage system into the municipal storm water drainage system, CRRA will grant to CL&P an easement on the Premises to construct such underground storm water drainage system in a location which is acceptable to CRRA and which does not interfere with any improvements then on the Premises. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that any activities or construction by CRRA after the Effective Date would otherwise result in or do result in increased amounts of storm water over Parcel 1 from that which results or could result from a storm water event on the Effective Date given the existing conditions at the Site and on Parcel 1 as of the Effective Date, then CRRA will reimburse CL&P on demand for all costs and expenses CL&P incurs for drainage system improvements to the municipal storm water system reasonably required as a result of such increased amounts of storm water after the Effective Date. To establish baseline conditions as of the Effective Date, CRRA and CL&P will jointly commission Fuss & O'Neill, Inc. or another mutually agreeable engineering firm to produce a baseline study of drainage conditions as of the Effective Date, and CRRA and CL&P shall share equally in the cost of such baseline study.

To drain storm water from the Premises onto Parcel 1. CL&P acknowledges and agrees that the existing topography of the Premises and Parcel 1 is such that storm water currently drains from the Premises onto Parcel 1. CL&P further acknowledges that by virtue of CRRA's Remediation activities on the Premises which CRRA is required to perform in connection with its acquisition of the Premises hereunder, increased amounts of storm water from that which currently occurs may drain onto Parcel 1. CRRA agrees that if, at no expenses expense to CRRA, (i) CL&P constructs an underground storm water drainage system to carry storm water from Parcel 1 into a municipal storm water drainage system, (ii) CL&P obtains all necessary permits and approvals for storm water runoff from the Premises to discharge into such municipal storm water drainage system and (iii) CL&P will pay all costs to construct an underground storm water drainage system on the Premises (including any costs of Remediation which is required due to the construction of such underground storm water drainage system) to collect the storm water which would otherwise drain onto Parcel 1 and have it instead collect in, and run through, such storm water drainage system into the municipal storm water drainage system, CRRA will grant to CL&P an easement on the Premises to construct such underground storm water drainage system in a location which is acceptable to CRRA and which does not interfere with any improvements then on the Premises.Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that any activities or construction by CRRA after the Effective Date would otherwise result in or do result in increased amounts of storm water over Parcel 1 from that which results or could result from a storm water event on the Effective Date given the existing conditions at the Site and on Parcel 1 as of the Effective Date, then CRRA will reimburse CL&P on demand for all costs and expenses CL&P incurs for drainage system improvements to the municipal storm water system reasonably required as a result of such increased amounts of storm water after the Effective Date. To establish baseline conditions as of the Effective Date, CRRA and CL&P will jointly commission Fuss & O'Neill, Inc. or another mutually agreeable engineering firm to produce a baseline study of drainage conditions as of the Effective Date, and CRRA and CL&P shall share equally in the cost of such baseline study.

EX-99.2 3 0003.txt DPUC APPLICATION Exhibit D.1 STATE OF CONNECTICUT DEPARTMENT OF PUBLIC UTILITY CONTROL APPLICATION OF THE CONNECTICUT RESOURCES RECOVERY AUTHORITY FOR APPROVAL OF CONDEMNATION OF PROPERTY OF THE CONNECTICUT LIGHT AND POWER COMPANY PURSUANT TO CONN.GEN.STAT. Section 16-43 : : : : DOCKET NO. 99-06- JUNE 25, 1999 APPLICATION Pursuant to Connecticut General Statute ("CGS") Section 16-43, the Connecticut Resources Recovery Authority ("CRRA") hereby applies to the Department of Public Utility Control ("Department") for approval of CRRA's acquisition, by eminent domain, of certain real and personal property of The Connecticut Light and Power Company ("CL&P") in Hartford. CRRA intends to acquire the land and facilities comprising the electric generating assets and associated real property, but excluding substation, transmission and distribution assets, at CL&P's South Meadow Generating Station in Hartford for the sum of ten million dollars ($10,000,000). CL&P will retain ownership of its electric substation, transmission and/or distribution facilities located on the site and also will retain permanent easements for their continued use, operation and maintenance (the "Retained Facilities"). CRRA shall have the right to relocate the Retained Facilities elsewhere on the site if practicable, at its cost upon approval by CL&P, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld. In support of this Application, CRRA hereby states as follows: 1. Applicant. The applicant is the Connecticut Resources Recovery Authority, "a body politic and corporate, constituting a public instrumentality and political subdivision of the State of Connecticut established and created for the performance of an essential public and governmental function." C.G.S. Section 22a-261. CRRA's powers, authority and duties are described in the Solid Waste Management Services Act, C.G.S. Sections 22a-257 - 22a-285k. CRRA has the power to acquire property interests by eminent domain pursuant to C.G.S. Sections 22a-266(a)(7) and 22a-276. CRRA has offices at 179 Allyn Street, Hartford, Connecticut 06103. 2. Property Owner. The property owner is CL&P, a specially chartered Connecticut corporation with offices at 107 Selden Street, Berlin, Connecticut 06037. CL&P is a public service company as defined in C.G.S. Section 16-1(a)(4) and therefore CRRA's condemnation of its property is subject to the provisions of C.G.S. Section 16-43. 3. Statement of Purpose and Need. CRRA seeks to acquire title to the electric generating assets and associated real property, but excluding substation, transmission and distribution assets of CL&P at South Meadow for the purpose of securing its investment and long-term interest in the site which is in furtherance of the public interest. CRRA recognizes that CL&P is required by C.G.S. Section 16-244e (Section 6 of Public Act 98-28) to divest its non-nuclear electric generating assets by January 1, 2000 in accordance with the divestiture plan approved by the Department in Docket No. 98-10-08. The electric generating assets and associated real property assets at South Meadow are among the assets that will be sold by CL&P pursuant to this statute and, unless this application is approved, will likely be acquired by a third party with whom CRRA has no contractual relationship. CRRA has invested approximately $300 million in its Mid-Connecticut resource recovery project on the South Meadow site (the "Mid-Connecticut Project")and seeks to secure that interest by taking title to the generating assets. CRRA provides steam to the electric generating facilities on the site from which it derives revenues to meet CRRA's obligations. Its investment and interest in the site are potentially at risk in the transfer of CL&P's assets to a third party. The acquisition of the site, subject to the retention of certain electric facilities and easements in favor of CL&P, is in the public interest in that it will enable CRRA to continue to provide for environmentally sound refuse disposal for over 60 Connecticut municipalities and use such refuse to produce steam and electricity in accordance with the Solid Waste Management Services Act. CRRA seeks approval of this Application no later than August 15, 1999. CRRA shall file the necessary documentation in Connecticut Superior Court so that title to the property shall vest in it five (5) business days after receipt of the Department's approval of this Application and (i) the expiration of the applicable appeal period or (ii) resolution of any appeal; but in any event CRRA shall file such documentation prior to October 1, 1999. In the event title has not vested in CRRA on or before October 1, 1999, CL&P at its sole option may transfer the property to a third party by auction or private sale, subject to the Department's approval. In the event CRRA has taken title by October 1, 1999 and a final, non-appealable judgment on appeal voids the Department's approval of this Application, CRRA shall reconvey the property to CL&P and the transaction shall be reversed. CL&P and CRRA may, by mutual agreement, set an alternative date for transfer of title. 4. Definitive Agreement. Prior to the transfer of title, parties will execute a definitive agreement on the specific terms of the transfer. 5. Location of the Property. The Property is located in Hartford east of Reserve Road, north of Maxim Road and west of the Connecticut River and land of the City of Hartford and is shown as Lot 2 on the map attached as Exhibit A (the "Property"). 6. Description of the Physical Characteristics of the Property. The Property contains approximately 79.9 acres and is substantially improved with various buildings, structures, electric generation, substation, transmission and distribution facilities, other utilities and appurtenances as shown on Exhibit A. 7. Public Service Company Property Interests. CL&P currently owns all of the real and personal property that is part of the Property with the exception of the CRRA buildings and equipment associated with its Mid- Connecticut Project (which include the project waste processing facility, power block facility, coal and ash handling equipment). Subsequent to the proposed condemnation, CRRA will own all of the real and personal property that is Lot 2 as shown on Exhibit A with the exception of the following to be retained by CL&P: All electric substation, transmission, and distribution and associated facilities necessary or useful to CL&P in the conduct of its business, located on the Property within the areas designated as "Easement to be Reserved" on Exhibit A. CL&P will also retain non-exclusive permanent easement rights over such areas (shown in preliminary form as the shaded areas on Exhibit A) to provide for its continued use, operation and maintenance of such facilities. CL&P will accept fee ownership in lieu of easements of said easement areas if CRRA obtains required land use regulatory approvals and if CRRA assumes past environmental liabilities for said easement areas, as provided in Section 9. 8. Need for Relocation of Public Service Company Facilities. The proposed condemnation will not require the relocation or removal of any of the electrical facilities to be retained by CL&P. 9. Consideration. CRRA will pay to CL&P the sum of $10,000,000 for the Property. As part consideration for the transaction, CRRA will also accept liability for, hold CL&P harmless against, and indemnify CL&P against any environmental liabilities with respect to the Property (inclusive of the easement areas), except that CL&P shall pay to CRRA one-half of the expense of any remediation work necessary to comply with federal or Connecticut law or regulation included but not limited to Connecticut Remediation Standard Regulations, up to a total CL&P contribution of $2,000,000. CL&P will retain all environmental liability as to Lot 1. CL&P shall also retain environmental liability for its future activities in said easement areas, and will indemnify and hold CRRA harmless with respect to liability to third parties for necessary off-site work to remediate environmental damage resulting from CL&P's prior activities on Lot 2. CRRA shall reimburse CL&P for the cost of certain maintenance performed on the generating assets in 1999 prior to the date of this petition, including work to re-tube the Unit 6 condensor at an approximate cost of $310,000. 10. Public Service Company Information. CRRA has consulted with CL&P regarding the proposed condemnation, and has determined the following information: (a) CL&P has confirmed that the representations made by CRRA herein as they relate to CL&P and/or its property interests are accurate. (b) The Property is currently used by CL&P in furtherance of its rendition of public utility service, and is held by it in Account 101. Other than the substation, transmission and distribution facilities, the Property is a generating facility that must be divested by CL&P as of January 1, 2000 to comply with the requirements of Public Act No. 98-28. (c) CL&P indicates that it will not need to acquire additional real property rights to relocate facilities, but that it is essential that it retain permanent easement rights over the portions of the Property shown as "Easement to be Reserved" on Exhibit A. (d) CL&P indicates that its retention of the substation, transmission, distribution and associated facilities and equipment within the designated easement areas will enable it to continue to provide electric service, consistent with its role as an electric distribution company as defined in C.G.S. Section 16-1(a)(29). (e) CL&P will provide the Department with a statement of its position relative to the proposed condemnation in a separate filing. (f) CRRA believes that the price being paid by CRRA, as aforesaid, is the approximate fair market value of the Property. 11. Compliance with C.G.S. Section 16-50b et seq. The Property is not unimproved land and therefore the requirements of C.G.S. Section 16-50b et seq. do not apply. 12. Notices.

Goldberg Donald W. Downes DECISION DECISION I. INTRODUCTION A. Summary In this Decision the Department of Public Utility Control approves the request of the Connecticut Resources Recovery Authority to acquire by condemnation The Connecticut Light and Power Company's South Meadows generation facility in Hartford, Connecticut and approximately 79.9 acres of land. CRRA's Mid-Connecticut resource recovery facility is also located on this land. The acquisition of CL&P's generation plant will allow CRRA to continue its waste processing services to over 60 Connecticut municipalities. CL&P will receive compensation of $10 million in cash and CRRA will assume substantial environmental remediation costs for this property. CL&P will retain and continue to operate all its electric substation, transmission, distribution and associated facilities at the South Meadows site. B. Petition By application filed with the Department of Public Utility Control (Department) on June 25, 1999 (Application), pursuant to the General Statutes of Connecticut (Conn. Gen. Stat.) Section 16-43, the Connecticut Resources Recovery Authority (CRRA) requests approval of the acquisition by eminent domain, pursuant to its powers under Conn. Gen. Stat. Sections 22a-266(a)(7) and 22a-276, of certain real and personal property of The Connecticut Light and Power Company (CL&P) in Hartford, Connecticut. The property in question contains approximately 79.9 acres of land and improvements thereon east of Reserve Road, north of Maxim Road and west of the Connecticut River and land of the City of Hartford (Property). The land to be acquired is shown as Lot 2 and more particularly bounded and described on a map attached as Exhibit A to the Application, which survey map is entitled: "NORTHEAST UTILITIES SERVICE CO. FOR THE CONNECTICUT LIGHT & POWER COMPANY, BERLIN, CONNECTICUT, COMPILATION PLAN - SOUTH MEADOW GENERATING STATION SEPARATION PLAN SHOWING LAND TO BE CONVEYED AND EASEMENT TO BE RESERVED, HARTFORD, CONNECTICUT, SCALE 1"=100, DATE 3/2/99, REVISED EASEMENT AREA DATE 6/8/99, DWG. NO. 21872-1, ELLIOT F. FULLER, JR. PELS #12328." Applicant proposes to pay CL&P the sum of $10 million as just compensation for the Property, subject to approval of the Superior Court as the assessment of damages for the taking. CRRA will also accept liability for, hold CL&P harmless against, and indemnify CL&P against environmental liabilities with respect to the Property, except that CL&P shall contribute one-half of the expense, but no more $2,000,000, towards remediation work necessary to comply with federal or Connecticut law. C. Conduct of the Proceeding The Property is not subject to the requirements of Conn. Gen. Stat. Sections 16-50c, 16-50d and 16-50e. No public hearing is required and none was held. D. Parties to the Proceeding The Department recognized the following as Parties to this proceeding: The Connecticut Light and Power Company, P.O. Box 270, Hartford, CT 06141- 0270; Office of Consumer Counsel, Ten Franklin Square, New Britain, CT, 06051; and Connecticut Resources Recovery Authority, 179 Allyn Street, Hartford, CT 06103. II. EVIDENCE OF THE PARTIES The Property to be taken by eminent domain consists of approximately 79.9 acres and is improved with buildings, structures, electric generation, transmission, and distribution facilities, and other utilities and appurtenances. CRRA's Mid-Connecitcut resource recovery facility is also located on this acreage, on a parcel leased from CL&P. Application, Exhibit A. The Property is located adjacent to the Connecticut River, providing barge access. The Charter Oak Bridge over the Connecticut River crosses the northwest portion of the Property. The intersection of major interstate highways provides highway access for the truck traffic to the waste processing facility. The resource recovery facility was built at this site because it provides fuel for the steam generators at the generation plant. CRRA intends to acquire the land and facilities comprising the generating facilities and associated real property. CRRA would thus secure a market for the steam produced from the burning of the processed refuse. CL&P would retain ownership of the substation, transmission, and distribution assets at the South Meadows station (Retained Facilities). CL&P has designed permanent easements it will retain for those facilities. The permanent easement areas designed for this transfer are shown as "Easement to Be Reserved" on Exhibit A of the Application. CRRA will have the right to relocate the Retained Facilities elsewhere on its site, if practicable, at its cost subject to approval by CL&P. According to the Application, "Prior to the transfer of title, parties will execute a definitive agreement on the specific terms of the transfer." Application, pp. 2 and 5. CRRA owns the boiler and attendant facilities related to burning refuse at the site, making it the most interested possible purchaser of CL&P's Property. CL&P is required by Conn. Gen. Statute Section 16-244e to divest its non-nuclear electric generating assets by January 1, 2000. The generating assets, including the turbine, condenser, generator, and associated piping, and associated real property assets at South Meadow are among the assets that will be sold by CL&P and would likely be acquired by a third party unless this application is approved. CRRA states that it has invested approximately $300 million at this site and seeks to secure its interest by acquiring the generating assets. CRRA states that acquisition of the site is in the public interest since it will enable CRRA to continue to provide environmentally sound refuse disposal and recycling for over 60 municipalities in accordance with the Solid Waste Management Services Act. Application, p. 4; Conn. Gen. Stat. Sections 22a-257 et seq. CRRA will pay CL&P $10 million for the Property. The net book basis of the property is ($3,217,591). Response to Interrogatory EL-27 in Docket No. 99-02-05, Application of The Connecticut Light and Power Company for Calculation of Stranded Costs, of which the Department hereby takes administrative notice. CRRA also will accept environmental liabilities at the site; however, CL&P will be responsible for up to one half of the expense of any remediation work necessary to comply with federal or state law or regulation, up to a maximum of $2 million. The Company believes remediation costs will substantially exceed that amount, therefore resulting in savings to ratepayers by avoiding these costs. Tr. 6/7/99 in Docket No. 85-05-13 REO1, The Connecticut Light and Power Company's Petition for Approval of Certain Contracts and Transactions Associated With the Mid-Connecticut Refuse to Energy Project Buyout, p. 10, of which the Department hereby takes administrative notice. CRRA shall also reimburse CL&P for certain maintenance performed in the generating assets in 1999, including work on the Unit 6 condenser at an approximate cost of $310,000. Application, p. 8. III. DEPARTMENT ANALYSIS CL&P is a public service company as defined by Conn. Gen. Stat. Section 16-1(a)(4), and, therefore, a condemnation of its property is subject to Department approval pursuant to Conn. Gen. Stat. Section 16-43. Section 6 of Public Act 98-28 (Conn. Gen. Stat. Section 16-244e), An Act Concerning Electric Restructuring, requires CL&P to divest its non-nuclear electric generating assets by January 1, 2000, in accordance with the divestiture plan approved by the Department in the Decision dated January 8, 1999, in Docket No. 98-10-08, DPUC Review of The Connecticut Light and Power Company's Divestiture Plan. The electric generation assets and real property at South Meadow are among the assets that must be sold by CL&P pursuant to the restructuring act. Unless this application is approved, the Property could be acquired by a third party with whom CRRA has no contractual relationship. Since CRRA has invested approximately $300 million in its Mid- Connecticut resource recovery project at the South Meadows site, it seeks to secure the Property including the generation facilities. Application, p. 4. The processed refuse from the recycling plant will continue to produce steam for electric generation at the facility. The condemnation of the Property will allow CRRA to continue refuse disposal and resource recycling in accordance with the Solid Waste Management Services Act. Conn. Gen. Stat. Sections 22a-257 to 22a-285k. THE CONNECTICUT RESOURCES RECOVERY AUTHORITY, ESTABLISHED BY CONNECTICUT LAW IN 1973, IS "A BODY POLITIC AND CORPORATE, CONSTITUTING A PUBLIC INSTRUMENTALITY AND POLITICAL SUBDIVISION OF THE STATE OF CONNECTICUT ESTABLISHED AND CREATED FOR THE PERFORMANCE OF AN ESSENTIAL PUBLIC AND GOVERNMENTAL FUNCTION." CONN. GEN. STAT. SECTIONS 22A-261. CRRA'S POWERS, AUTHORITY AND DUTIES ARE DESCRIBED IN THE CONNECTICUT SOLID WASTE MANAGEMENT SERVICES ACT, CONN. GEN.STAT. SECTIONS 22A-257 TO 22A-285K. CRRA HAS THE POWER TO ACQUIRE PROPERTY INTERESTS BY EMINENT DOMAIN. CONN. GEN. STAT. SECTIONS 22A-266(A)(7) AND 22A-276. PURSUANT TO CONN. GEN. STAT. SECTIONS 22A-276 AND 48-12, CRRA PLANS TO FILE A CONDEMNATION ACTION WITH THE HARTFORD DISTRICT OF THE SUPERIOR COURT TO TAKE THE PROPERTY. DAMAGES TO AN OWNER OF CONDEMNED PROPERTY ARE ASSESSED AT FAIR MARKET VALUE PURSUANT TO THE PROCEDURES ESTABLISHED BY CONN. GEN. STAT. SECTIONS 8-132 ET SEQ. THE PARTIES HAVE AGREED UPON THE FAIR MARKET VALUE OF THE PROPERTY AND CRRA WILL FILE THE ACTION WITH THE SUPERIOR COURT FOR THE AGREED UPON COMPENSATION. APPLICATION, PP. 4, 7. CRRA IS THE PARTY MOST LIKELY TO PAY FAIR MARKET VALUE FOR THE PROPERTY, GIVEN ITS FACILITY OPERATES AT THIS LOCATION. CRRA is a quasi-public agency with clear legislative mandates. Additionally, the facility meets the qualifications of Public Act 98-28 for Class II renewable generation, and its continued operation promotes state energy policy. A sale of CL&P's South Meadows generating facilities to a third party could adversely affect CRRA's recycling facility. Acquisition by an entity that did not properly operate and maintain the equipment could curtail the use of steam from the recycling plant. Acquisition of the CL&P generating facilities will promote the public interest by preserving CRRA's ability to burn refuse and sell the end product, which in this case will become electricity instead of steam. Public Act 98-28 Sections 8(h)(3) and (4) require that all gains from sales of property occurring after July 1, 1998, be used to reduce the total amount of nuclear stranded costs. Therefore, CL&P must record the gain in a contra plant account and have the gain act as an offset to rate base. CL&P shall make entries to this account readily identifiable for review and audit so that CL&P and the Department can track the amount available to offset nuclear stranded costs. The Department intends to apply the gain from the sale of this facility to offset stranded cost in Docket No. 99-03-36, DPUC Determination of The Connecticut Light and Power Company's Standard Offer. Since CL&P's access to transmission and distribution facilities at the site will not be impeded by the condemnation, the ability of CL&P to provide electric service to the public will not be harmed by the transaction. Provision of the designated easement rights over the Property will enable CL&P to continue to provide electric service, consistent with its duties as an electric distribution company. Conn. Gen. Stat. Section 16-1(a)(29). Review of the evidence submitted shows that the taking of the Property by CRRA will not adversely affect CL&P's ability to continue to provide service to its customers. There is no reason to believe that ratepayers or shareholders will be adversely affected by the taking of the Property and retention of necessary easement rights by CL&P. IV. FINDINGS OF FACT 1. CRRA is a quasi-public agency of the State of Connecticut and has the power of _______ eminent domain. 2. CRRA requires the Property of CL&P to control the land for its waste processing facility and secure a market for the steam it produces from the burning of refuse. 3. CL&P must divest itself of the South Meadows generation facility. 4. CRRA WILL REIMBURSE CL&P THE SUM OF $10 MILLION, PLUS CONSIDERATION FOR MAINTENANCE PERFORMED IN 1999. 5. CRRA will assume the major responsibility for environmental remediation costs at the Property. 6. CL&P is exposed to a maximum of $2 million in environmental remediation costs at the site. 7. The parties agreed that cash consideration of $10 million, $310,000 for 1999 repairs, and assumption of environmental remediation costs is a reasonable estimation of the fair market value of the Property to be condemned, and the compensation will be submitted to the Superior Court for approval. 8. The CRRA facility will produce electricity as a Category II renewable energy source. 9. CL&P will retain ownership of the substation, transmission, and distribution assets at the South Meadows station and of permanent easements for access to and operation of these facilities. V. CONCLUSION AND ORDERS A. Conclusion Based on the record in this proceeding, the Department hereby approves the condemnation and taking by CRRA of the Property owned by CL&P at the South Meadows facility, with the retention by CL&P of all substation, transmission, distribution, other facilities and permanent easements to operate such facilities necessary to provide services as an electric distribution company. Prior to the transfer of title CL&P and CRRA will execute a definitive agreement on the specific terms of the transfer. The Department approves of the $10 million cash compensation and allocation of site remediation costs as a reasonable fair market value of the Property as agreed to by CRRA and CL&P and to be submitted to the Superior Court for approval. B. Orders 1. CL&P shall submit to the Department copies of the Easement agreements necessary to the operation of the Retained Facilities at the South Meadows, within 60 days of this Decision. 2. CL&P shall submit to the Department copies of the executed agreement detailing the specific terms of the transfer within 30 days of its execution. 3. CL&P shall submit to the Department no later than 30 days after it is issued the approval by the Superior Court of the statement of compensation filed by CRRA pursuant to Conn. Gen. Stat. Section 8-129. CL&P shall also submit at that time a copy of the statement of compensation, and a statement by CL&P that it is not appealing the statement of compensation because it is not aggrieved by the amount of compensation by CRRA. 4. CL&P shall submit the journal entries, reflecting the value of the Property taken no later than 30 days after payment is entered. Linda Kelly Arnold Jack R. Goldberg Donald W.

Tr. 6/7/99 in Docket No. 85-05-13 REO1, The Connecticut Light and Power Company's Petition for Approval of Certain Contracts and Transactions Associated With the Mid-Connecticut Refuse to Energy Project Buyout, p. 10, of which the Department hereby takes administrative notice. CRRA shall also reimburse CL&P for certain maintenance performed in the generating assets in 1999, including work on the Unit 6 condenser at an approximate cost of $310,000. Application, p. 8. III. DEPARTMENT ANALYSIS CL&P is a public service company as defined by Conn. Gen. Stat. Section 16-1(a)(4), and, therefore, a condemnation of its property is subject to Department approval pursuant to Conn. Gen. Stat. Section 16-43. Section 6 of Public Act 98-28 (Conn. Gen. Stat. Section 16-244e), An Act Concerning Electric Restructuring, requires CL&P to divest its non-nuclear electric generating assets by January 1, 2000, in accordance with the divestiture plan approved by the Department in the Decision dated January 8, 1999, in Docket No. 98-10-08, DPUC Review of The Connecticut Light and Power Company's Divestiture Plan. The electric generation assets and real property at South Meadow are among the assets that must be sold by CL&P pursuant to the restructuring act. Unless this application is approved, the Property could be acquired by a third party with whom CRRA has no contractual relationship. Since CRRA has invested approximately $300 million in its Mid- Connecticut resource recovery project at the South Meadows site, it seeks to secure the Property including the generation facilities. Application, p. 4. The processed refuse from the recycling plant will continue to produce steam for electric generation at the facility. The condemnation of the Property will allow CRRA to continue refuse disposal and resource recycling in accordance with the Solid Waste Management Services Act. Conn. Gen. Stat. Sections 22a-257 to 22a-285k. THE CONNECTICUT RESOURCES RECOVERY AUTHORITY, ESTABLISHED BY CONNECTICUT LAW IN 1973, IS "A BODY POLITIC AND CORPORATE, CONSTITUTING A PUBLIC INSTRUMENTALITY AND POLITICAL SUBDIVISION OF THE STATE OF CONNECTICUT ESTABLISHED AND CREATED FOR THE PERFORMANCE OF AN ESSENTIAL PUBLIC AND GOVERNMENTAL FUNCTION." CONN. GEN. STAT. SECTIONS 22A-261. CRRA'S POWERS, AUTHORITY AND DUTIES ARE DESCRIBED IN THE CONNECTICUT SOLID WASTE MANAGEMENT SERVICES ACT, CONN. GEN.STAT. SECTIONS 22A-257 TO 22A-285K. CRRA HAS THE POWER TO ACQUIRE PROPERTY INTERESTS BY EMINENT DOMAIN. CONN. GEN. STAT. SECTIONS 22A-266(A)(7) AND 22A-276. PURSUANT TO CONN. GEN. STAT. SECTIONS 22A-276 AND 48-12, CRRA PLANS TO FILE A CONDEMNATION ACTION WITH THE HARTFORD DISTRICT OF THE SUPERIOR COURT TO TAKE THE PROPERTY. DAMAGES TO AN OWNER OF CONDEMNED PROPERTY ARE ASSESSED AT FAIR MARKET VALUE PURSUANT TO THE PROCEDURES ESTABLISHED BY CONN. GEN. STAT. SECTIONS 8-132 ET SEQ. THE PARTIES HAVE AGREED UPON THE FAIR MARKET VALUE OF THE PROPERTY AND CRRA WILL FILE THE ACTION WITH THE SUPERIOR COURT FOR THE AGREED UPON COMPENSATION. APPLICATION, PP. 4, 7. CRRA IS THE PARTY MOST LIKELY TO PAY FAIR MARKET VALUE FOR THE PROPERTY, GIVEN ITS FACILITY OPERATES AT THIS LOCATION. CRRA is a quasi-public agency with clear legislative mandates. Additionally, the facility meets the qualifications of Public Act 98-28 for Class II renewable generation, and its continued operation promotes state energy policy. A sale of CL&P's South Meadows generating facilities to a third party could adversely affect CRRA's recycling facility. Acquisition by an entity that did not properly operate and maintain the equipment could curtail the use of steam from the recycling plant. Acquisition of the CL&P generating facilities will promote the public interest by preserving CRRA's ability to burn refuse and sell the end product, which in this case will become electricity instead of steam. Public Act 98-28 Sections 8(h)(3) and (4) require that all gains from sales of property occurring after July 1, 1998, be used to reduce the total amount of nuclear stranded costs. Therefore, CL&P must record the gain in a contra plant account and have the gain act as an offset to rate base. CL&P shall make entries to this account readily identifiable for review and audit so that CL&P and the Department can track the amount available to offset nuclear stranded costs. The Department intends to apply the gain from the sale of this facility to offset stranded cost in Docket No. 99-03-36, DPUC Determination of The Connecticut Light and Power Company's Standard Offer. Since CL&P's access to transmission and distribution facilities at the site will not be impeded by the condemnation, the ability of CL&P to provide electric service to the public will not be harmed by the transaction. Provision of the designated easement rights over the Property will enable CL&P to continue to provide electric service, consistent with its duties as an electric distribution company. Conn. Gen. Stat. Section 16-1(a)(29). Review of the evidence submitted shows that the taking of the Property by CRRA will not adversely affect CL&P's ability to continue to provide service to its customers. There is no reason to believe that ratepayers or shareholders will be adversely affected by the taking of the Property and retention of necessary easement rights by CL&P. IV. FINDINGS OF FACT 1. CRRA is a quasi-public agency of the State of Connecticut and has the power of _______ eminent domain. 2. CRRA requires the Property of CL&P to control the land for its waste processing facility and secure a market for the steam it produces from the burning of refuse. 3. CL&P must divest itself of the South Meadows generation facility. 4. CRRA WILL REIMBURSE CL&P THE SUM OF $10 MILLION, PLUS CONSIDERATION FOR MAINTENANCE PERFORMED IN 1999. 5. CRRA will assume the major responsibility for environmental remediation costs at the Property. 6. CL&P is exposed to a maximum of $2 million in environmental remediation costs at the site. 7. The parties agreed that cash consideration of $10 million, $310,000 for 1999 repairs, and assumption of environmental remediation costs is a reasonable estimation of the fair market value of the Property to be condemned, and the compensation will be submitted to the Superior Court for approval. 8. The CRRA facility will produce electricity as a Category II renewable energy source. 9. CL&P will retain ownership of the substation, transmission, and distribution assets at the South Meadows station and of permanent easements for access to and operation of these facilities. V. CONCLUSION AND ORDERS A. Conclusion Based on the record in this proceeding, the Department hereby approves the condemnation and taking by CRRA of the Property owned by CL&P at the South Meadows facility, with the retention by CL&P of all substation, transmission, distribution, other facilities and permanent easements to operate such facilities necessary to provide services as an electric distribution company. Prior to the transfer of title CL&P and CRRA will execute a definitive agreement on the specific terms of the transfer. The Department approves of the $10 million cash compensation and allocation of site remediation costs as a reasonable fair market value of the Property as agreed to by CRRA and CL&P and to be submitted to the Superior Court for approval. B. Orders 1. CL&P shall submit to the Department copies of the Easement agreements necessary to the operation of the Retained Facilities at the South Meadows, within 60 days of this Decision. 2. CL&P shall submit to the Department copies of the executed agreement detailing the specific terms of the transfer within 30 days of its execution. 3. CL&P shall submit to the Department no later than 30 days after it is issued the approval by the Superior Court of the statement of compensation filed by CRRA pursuant to Conn. Gen. Stat. Section 8-129. CL&P shall also submit at that time a copy of the statement of compensation, and a statement by CL&P that it is not appealing the statement of compensation because it is not aggrieved by the amount of compensation by CRRA. 4. CL&P shall submit the journal entries, reflecting the value of the Property taken no later than 30 days after payment is entered. Linda Kelly Arnold Jack R. Goldberg Donald W.
