members, as the case may be, may in their sole discretion,  make or refrain from
making any federal, state or local income or other tax elections for the Company
that it deems  necessary or  advisable;  provided that if there is more than one
member,  the prior written consent of all members shall be required in order for
the Company to make an election pursuant to Section 754 of the Code.

omitted in good faith by a Covered Person and in the reasonable belief that such

suits or proceedings, civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, in which
the Covered Person may be involved,  or threatened to be involved, as a party or
otherwise,  by reason of its  management  of the affairs of the Company or which
relates to or arises out of the Company or its property,  business or affairs. A
Covered Person shall not be entitled to indemnification  under this Section 10.2
with  respect  to any claim,  issue or matter in which it has  engaged in fraud,
willful misconduct, bad faith or gross negligence.

                                   ARTICLE XI

     Section 11.2  Successors;  Counterparts.  Subject to Article VIII, this LLC
Agreement  (a) shall be binding as to the  executors,  administrators,  estates,
heirs,  assigns and legal  successors,  or nominees or  representatives,  of the

     Section 11.3 Governing Law; Severability.

          (a)  This  LLC  Agreement  shall  be  governed  by  and  construed  in
     accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware  without giving effect to
     the  principles  of  conflict  of laws  thereof.  In  particular,  this LLC
     Agreement  shall be construed to the maximum extent possible to comply with
     all the terms and  conditions  of the Act.  If,  nevertheless,  it shall be
     determined  by a court of competent  jurisdiction  that any  provisions  or
     wording of this LLC Agreement shall be invalid or  unenforceable  under the
     Act or other applicable law, such invalidity or unenforceability  shall not
     invalidate  the  entire  LLC  Agreement  and  this LLC  Agreement  shall be
     construed so as to limit any term or provision so as to make it enforceable
     or valid within the  requirements of applicable law, and, in the event such
     term or  provisions  cannot  be so  limited,  this LLC  Agreement  shall be
     construed to omit such invalid or unenforceable terms or provisions.  If it
     shall  be  determined  by  a  court  of  competent  jurisdiction  that  any
     provisions  relating to the distributions and allocations of the Company or
     to any expenses payable by the Company are invalid or  unenforceable,  this
     LLC  Agreement  shall  be  construed  or  interpreted  so as (i) to make it
     enforceable or valid and (ii) to make the  distributions and allocations as
     closely  equivalent  to  those  set  forth  in  this  LLC  Agreement  as is
     permissible under applicable law.

          (b) Each party  hereto (i)  irrevocably  submits to the  non-exclusive
     jurisdiction  of any  Delaware  state  court or  Federal  court  sitting in
     Wilmington,  Delaware in any action arising out of the LLC  Agreement;  and
     (ii)  consents  to the  service of process by mail.  Nothing  herein  shall
     affect  the  right of any  party  to  serve  legal  process  in any  manner
     permitted  by law or affect  his or its right to bring  action in any other
     court.

     Section 11.4  Filings.  Following  the  execution  and delivery of this LLC
Agreement, the Cinergy Member shall be an "authorized person" within the meaning
of the Act, and shall  prepare any  documents  required to be filed and recorded
under the Act, and the Cinergy  Member shall  promptly  cause each such document
required to be filed and recorded in accordance  with the Act and, to the extent
required  by local  law,  to be filed  and  recorded  or  notice  thereof  to be
published in the appropriate place in each jurisdiction in which the Company may
hereafter establish a place of business.  The Cinergy Member shall also promptly
cause to be filed, recorded and published such statements of fictitious business
name and any  other  notices,  certificates,  statements  or  other  instruments
required by any  provision  of any  applicable  law of the United  States or any
state or other  jurisdiction which governs the conduct of its business from time
to time.

     Section 11.6 Further Assurances.  Each member agrees to perform all further
acts and execute,  acknowledge  and deliver any documents that may be reasonably
necessary to carry out the provisions of this LLC Agreement.

     Section 11.7 Notices. All notices, requests and other communications to any
member shall be in writing  (including  telecopier or similar writing) and shall
be given to such member (and any other person  designated by such member) at its
address or telecopier  number set forth in a schedule  filed with the records of
the  Company  or such  other  address or  telecopier  number as such  member may
hereafter specify for the purpose by notice. Each such notice,  request or other
communication shall be effective (a) if given by telecopier, when transmitted to
the number specified  pursuant to this Section and the appropriate  confirmation
is  received,  (b) if given  by  mail,  72 hours  after  such  communication  is
deposited in the mails with first class postage prepaid, addressed as aforesaid,
or (c) if given by any other  means,  when  delivered  at the address  specified
pursuant to this Section.

     Section  11.8 Books and  Records;  Accounting.  The  Cinergy  Member or, if
additional member(s) are admitted, the members shall keep or cause to be kept at
the  address of the  Company  (or at such  other  place as the  member(s)  shall
determine in their  discretion)  true and full books and records  regarding  the
status of the business and financial condition of the Company.
