FUNDING OF ADVANCES

Section 3.1   Fundings.

(a)   Amount of Fundings. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Participation Agreement and in reliance on the representations and warranties of each of the parties hereto contained herein or made pursuant hereto, upon receipt of an Advance Request, on each Advance Date each Certificate Holder shall acquire its interest in the Trust Estate and each Lender will assist in Funding Lessor's Advance, in each case by making available to Lessor by wire transfer in accordance with the instructions set forth in the Advance Request an amount equal to such Participant's Commitment Percentage of the aggregate amount of the requested Advance (unless any portion of such Advance consists of amounts described in clause (iii) of the next sentence of this Section 3.1(a), in which case such Participant will so make available funds equal to such Participant's Commitment Percentage of the portion of such Advance not consisting of Noneligible Accrued Amounts and each Certificate Holder will also make available funds equal to such Certificate Holder's Noneligible Accrued Amounts Commitment Percentage of the portion of the Advance consisting of Noneligible Accrued Amounts). Notwithstanding the foregoing, (i) the Funding by each Participant on such Advance Date shall not exceed such Participant's Available Commitment, (ii) before giving effect to such Advance, (x) the Advance to be made by Lessor to Lessee on such Advance Date does not exceed the Aggregate Available Commitments and the Aggregate Available Commitments shall not be less than the Unfunded Future Payment Amounts and (iii) with respect to any Noneligible Accrued Amounts otherwise payable on any Advance Date, the Certificate Holders shall (subject to clauses (i) and (ii) above) Fund on a pro rata basis the portion of such Advance equal to the aggregate amount of such Noneligible Accrued Amounts. No amounts paid or prepaid with respect to any Certificate Amount or the Loans may be readvanced, except amounts distributed to the Participants in reduction of their Loans pursuant to Section 5.3, but only to the extent such distribution is made from proceeds from a purchase by Lessee of a portion of the Assets pursuant to Section 18.1(d), 18.1(f), 18.1(h) or 18.1(i) of the Lease or the repayment of Excepted Costs pursuant to Section 3.5 of the Supervisory Agreement.

(b)   Notes and Certificates. Each Lender's Loan shall be evidenced by a separate Note issued to such Lender and repayable in accordance with, and with Interest accruing pursuant to, the terms of the Loan Agreement. The amounts made available by each Certificate Holder shall be evidenced by a separate Certificate issued by Lessor to each Certificate Holder. Each Certificate shall accrue Yield at the Yield Rate on the Certificate Amount thereof, payable as more fully set forth in the Trust Agreement and Section 5.3 hereof. The Notes and Certificates will be issued to each Lender and each Certificate Holder in a principal amount equal to such Lender's Loan Commitment (as specified in the column entitled "Commitment" on Schedule II) and such Certificate Holder's Certificate Commitment (as specified in the column entitled "Commitment" on Schedule I).

(c)   Fundings. Any Advance required to be made by the Lessor pursuant to any Operative Agreement shall be made by the Participants making a Funding directly to the Administrative Agent. Such Funding by the Participants to the Administrative Agent with respect to an Advance shall be deemed to constitute the required Funding from the Participants to Lessor, and the corresponding Advance by the Administrative Agent to any Person entitled to payments constituting Asset Costs, including Contingent Costs, Fees, Interest, Yield or Transaction Costs or deposits into the Project Collateral Accounts shall be deemed to constitute the required Advance by Lessor.

(d)   Advances; Limitations and Limits.

       (i)   Pursuant to Section 3.2, each Advance shall be used solely for the purposes set forth at Section 3.2(a) hereof.

       (ii)   The first Advance Date occurred on the Document Closing Date (the "Initial Advance Date"). An Advance Date shall occur on the Second Document Closing Date for an Advance which will include amounts sufficient to pay the respective Upfront Fees of the new Lenders and new Certificate Holders and all Transaction Expenses due and payable as of such date. Each Advance Date shall be a Business Day, and in the case of an Advance for Participant Capitalized Costs, a Payment Date, and there shall be no more than two Advances during any calendar month (excluding any Advance made solely to pay Participant Capitalized Costs). Each Advance (excluding any Advance made solely to pay Participant Capitalized Costs or the last Advance hereunder) shall be in a minimum amount equal to $1,000,000. Each Advance under the Facility Tranche shall be comprised solely of Asset Costs of the types and categories of costs and shall be subject to the limitations on amounts for each such type and category as set forth in the applicable Facility Budget or, with respect to an Advance for Excepted Costs, the portion of the Pro Forma Budget relating to the Proposed Site, for which an Advance is requested. Lessee shall not request an Advance with respect to Asset Costs (x) payable under any Major Project Agreement unless Lessee has satisfied the conditions with respect thereto in Section 4.1 of the Supervisory Agreement or (y) to be deposited into a Project Collateral Account or to pay fees to an issuer of a Project Letter of Credit unless Lessee shall have complied with the requirements of Section 10.2. Lessee shall not request an Advance and no Advance shall be made with respect to any Facility or Equipment Group or, if applicable, Unit of an Equipment Group, for which Lessee has delivered a Purchase Notice pursuant to Article XVIII of the Lease. The amount of any Site Acquisition Advance with respect to any Site shall be used solely to pay for the Site Acquisition Costs with respect to such Site incurred through and including such Advance Date with respect to such Site. Each Construction Advance requested by Lessee shall be used for payment of the Facility Costs with respect to the Facilities identified in the Advance Request for such Advance that may be incurred through and including such Advance Date with respect to such Facility, including, in the case of the Initial Construction Advance, any costs incurred by the Lessee prior to the Document Closing Date in connection with such Facility and to the extent provided for in the Facility Budget and for deposits into Project Collateral Accounts.

Each Advance for Equipment Costs or Facility Equipment Costs shall be used solely for payment of the purchase price for such Equipment and any related Equipment Costs and Transaction Costs incurred by Lessee in connection with the purchase of such Equipment. Each Advance for Facility Costs, Excepted Costs and Equipment Costs (including for Participant Capitalized Costs and Internal Costs) also shall be subject to the limitations on amounts and types of costs (plus any contingencies) that may be incurred with respect to such Facility, Proposed Site or Equipment Group as set forth in the applicable Facility Budget or Equipment Group Budget or with respect to a Proposed Site, the applicable portion of the Pro Forma Budget (as such Equipment Group Budgets, Facility Budget or Pro Forma Budget may be modified from time to time in accordance with the Supervisory Agreement). Advances to pay or reimburse Lessee or any PPL Group Member for Internal Costs of the type described in clauses (i) or (ii) of the definition of "Internal Costs" at Appendix 1 shall not exceed $2,500,000 in the aggregate. Subject to the foregoing limitations, each Advance (other than an Advance for Participant Capitalized Costs) may be used to acquire Sites, construct Facilities, or Fund Excepted Costs with respect to a Proposed Site located in or to acquire Units of Equipment which, following the Unit Completion Dates therefor, will be stored or installed only in a State of the United States of America or the District of Columbia. All remittances made by Certificate Holders and Lenders for the Funding of any Advance shall be made in immediately available federal funds by wire transfer to the Administrative Agent, on behalf of the Lessor, at the Administrative Agent's address for wires referred to in Schedule III hereto prior to 1:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the Advance Date specified in the relevant Advance Request; provided, that if the terms and conditions for such Advance set forth herein have not been satisfied by 1:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the Advance Date specified in such Advance Request, no Participant shall be obligated to maintain the availability of its funds for such Advance unless such Participant has received a satisfactory indemnity for the overnight investment of such funds. Promptly upon Administrative Agent's receipt of such funds from the Participants, subject to the conditions herein (including Section 3.2), Administrative Agent shall wire such funds on the applicable Advance Date to the Persons entitled thereto and to such accounts as Lessee shall have indicated in the Advance Request. The Funding by each Certificate Holder and each Lender to the Administrative Agent of its respective portion of an Advance shall constitute authorization and direction by such party to Administrative Agent to make an Advance pursuant to this Article III.

       (iii)   Notwithstanding anything contained herein or in any other Operative Agreement to the contrary, unless the Administrative Agent otherwise directs, in its sole discretion, Advances, other than Advances or portions of Advances payable to one or more Participants, shall be paid to the Lessee, who agrees to act as payment agent on behalf of Administrative Agent ("Payment Agent"), and Lessee shall use the Funds relating to each such Advance to pay amounts due and payable to Persons who are not Participants, in accordance with the payment and wire instructions set forth in each Advance Request.

(e)   Termination of Commitments. Notwithstanding anything in this Participation Agreement to the contrary, the Commitments shall terminate and Lessor shall not be obligated to make an Advance, and no Participant shall be obligated to make any Fundings, and no Advance Date may occur upon the occurrence of the earlier of (i) 2:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the last day of the Commitment Period and (ii) a termination of the Lenders' Commitments pursuant to Section 5.2 of the Loan Agreement.

Section 3.2   Payment of Asset Costs and Fees; Application and Allocation of Funds.

(a)   Payment of Asset Costs. Effective on the Document Closing Date and as provided for in the Supervisory Agreement, Lessee has been appointed as Lessor's agent to supervise the performance of the Manufacturers under the Equipment Contracts to which Lessor, or Lessee, as Supervisory Agent, is a party or to the extent that the interests in any such Equipment Contract are assigned to Lessor and to undertake or cause to be undertaken the Project Obligations. Lessee shall pay or cause to be paid as and to the extent provided for and subject to the limitations of Section 4.1 of the Supervisory Agreement all Asset Costs, as such costs become due. On the Initial Advance Date and on each subsequent Advance Date, upon the satisfaction of the terms and conditions of this Participation Agreement, Lessor shall make an Advance from funds made available by the Participants pursuant to Section 3.1(c) in the amount specified in the applicable Advance Request (i) to the extent such Asset Costs constitute Lessee Obligated Asset Costs which have been previously paid directly by Lessee (or another PPL Group Member) from Lessee's (or such other PPL Group Member's) own funds within sixty (60) days (or ninety (90) days solely to the extent such Asset Costs constitute Internal Costs) prior to such Advance, and either Lessee has not been reimbursed for such expenditures by an Advance hereunder or amounts have not been previously Advanced for the payment thereof pursuant to clause (iii) hereof, to Lessee to reimburse Lessee for such Asset Costs, and Lessee certifies to the foregoing in the applicable Advance Request; (ii) to the extent the Asset Costs have not been previously paid and are then due and payable, to the Person(s) entitled to the payment thereof, it being understood that, except as provided in clause (i) above or clause (iii) below, all Asset Costs payable under any Major Project Agreement shall be paid with proceeds of Advances directly to the applicable Manufacturer or Contractor by Administrative Agent or the Payment Agent on its behalf; (iii) to the extent such Asset Costs constitute Lessee Obligated Asset Costs which will become due and payable within sixty (60) days following such Advance Date and Lessee so requests such amount and certifies as to the foregoing in the applicable Advance Request, then to Lessee for the use by Lessee solely for the payment of such Lessee Obligated Asset Costs when due and payable to the Person entitled to payment thereunder; (iv) to Fund Capitalized Interest, Capitalized Yield, Capitalized Fees, Capitalized Contingent Costs and Contingent Costs then due and payable; provided, however, that all such Fundings for Capitalized Interest, Capitalized Yield, Rent, Capitalized Fees, Capitalized Contingent Costs, Contingent Costs or other Supplemental Rent (if any) payable to any Participant will be Funded to the Administrative Agent and paid by the Administrative Agent directly to the Participant to which such amount is due as provided for in Sections 3.3(c) and 3.4 and distributed pursuant to Section 5.3, and (v) to make direct deposits into Project Collateral Accounts pursuant to the applicable Project Collateral Agreements.

(b)   Allocations of Costs. The portion of each Advance for Capitalized Interest, Capitalized Yield and Capitalized Fees of the type set forth at Section 4.4(b)(ii) shall be deemed to be allocated among the Equipment Costs for each Uncompleted Unit then being financed under the Equipment Tranche and the Facility Costs and Excepted Costs for each Uncompleted Facility or Proposed Site (and further allocated to each Unit of the Facility Equipment for such Facility) then being financed under the Facility Tranche (and with a Facility, a Turbine), based on the outstanding balance (including all Capitalized Interest, Capitalized Yield and Capitalized Fees previously allocated to such categories pursuant to this Section 3.2(b)) of Equipment Costs, Excepted Costs or Facility Costs outstanding with respect to each such Uncompleted Facility, Uncompleted Unit or Proposed Site, as applicable, as of the last day of the Interest Period ending immediately preceding the Advance Date for such Advance, divided by the portion of the aggregate Asset Balance outstanding as of such date attributable to all Uncompleted Units, Uncompleted Facilities and Proposed Sites then being financed under the Facility Tranche and the Equipment Tranche, as applicable, in each case without regard to the Advance to be made on such Advance Date. The portion of each Advance constituting Capitalized Fees of the type set forth at Section 4.4(b)(i) or 4.4(c)(i), (ii), (iii) or (iv) and General Transaction Costs shall be deemed to be allocated with respect to each Facility, Proposed Site or Equipment Group, as applicable, among the respective Equipment Costs for each Uncompleted Unit then being financed under the Equipment Tranche and Facility Costs and Excepted Costs for each Uncompleted Facility or Proposed Site then being financed under the Facility Tranche, based on the aggregate estimated Asset Costs specified in the Facility Budget for each such Uncompleted Facility, the Equipment Group Budget for each such Uncompleted Unit or the applicable portion of the Pro Forma Budget for each such Proposed Site, as applicable (or, if requested by Lessee, such estimated Asset Costs as set forth in the original Facility Budgets or the Equipment Group Budgets taking into account any permitted adjustments pursuant to the Supervisory Agreement for each Uncompleted Facility then being financed under the Facility Tranche and Equipment Group then being financed under the Equipment Tranche), divided by an amount equal to the aggregate amount of estimated Asset Costs for all Uncompleted Units, Uncompleted Facilities and Proposed Sites then being financed under the Equipment Tranche or the Facility Tranche as specified in all such Facility Budgets, Equipment Group Budgets and applicable portions of the Pro Forma Budget. Upon adding any additional Uncompleted Facility, Proposed Site or Uncompleted Equipment Group, a portion of the General Transaction Costs, Fees of the type set forth at Section 4.4(b)(i) or 4.4(c)(i)(ii), (iii), or (iv) and Capitalized Contingent Costs, together with any Capitalized Costs accruing thereon previously allocated to any other Uncompleted Facility, Proposed Site or Uncompleted Equipment Group as provided for in the immediately preceding sentence, will be reallocated to such additional Uncompleted Facility, Proposed Site or Uncompleted Equipment Group by reapplying the calculation in the immediately preceding sentence to each Uncompleted Facility, Proposed Site or Uncompleted Equipment Group (including such additional Uncompleted Facility, Proposed Site or Uncompleted Equipment Group); provided, however, that the denominator used in such calculation shall include the estimated Asset Costs for such additional Uncompleted Facility, Proposed Site or Uncompleted Equipment Group as set forth in the applicable Facility Budget, Equipment Group Budget or portion of the Pro Forma Budget. Transaction Costs (other than General Transaction Costs) shall be allocated among the Site Acquisition Costs or other Facility Costs for each Uncompleted Facility, the Excepted Costs for each Proposed Site and the Equipment Costs for each Uncompleted Unit and shall be set forth in the related Advance Request.

         Upon any reallocation of any Unit or Units from an Equipment Group to another Equipment Group or to a Facility or a Proposed Site pursuant to a transfer permitted pursuant to Section 3.1(e) of the Supervisory Agreement, an amount equal to the product of the Unit Fraction for each Unit so transferred and the Capitalized Costs and Transaction Costs previously allocated to the Equipment Group from which such Unit is transferred will be allocated to the Equipment Group or Facility or Proposed Site to which such Unit is reallocated. Upon any reallocation of any Unit from a Proposed Site or an Uncompleted Facility to another Facility or Proposed Site or an Equipment Group, an amount equal to the Unit Costs previously advanced for each such Unit so transferred and the Capitalized Costs and Transaction Costs previously allocated to such Unit will be allocated to the Facility or Proposed Site or an Equipment Group to which such Unit is reallocated. Notwithstanding the foregoing, upon the reallocation of any Unit from a Proposed Site or an Equipment Group pursuant to the two immediately preceding sentences, General Transaction Costs shall not be reallocated unless, after giving effect to such reallocation, no Units remain in the Equipment Group or Proposed Site from which such Unit is being reallocated. Upon such date as a Proposed Site becomes an Uncompleted Facility, the Excepted Costs previously advanced for such Proposed Site (including any allocable Capitalized Costs and Transaction Costs) will be deemed allocated to such Uncompleted Facility as Facility Costs and shall no longer be treated as Excepted Costs for purposes of the limitation on the amount of aggregate Excepted Costs set forth at Section 6.2(p)(i)(D).

Upon any purchase of a Facility, Equipment Group or Unit pursuant to the Operative Agreements, the repayment of any Excepted Costs or upon any Event of Default or a request by Lessee, Administrative Agent or any Participant, the Administrative Agent shall perform the foregoing calculation or confirm the accuracy of any such calculation previously performed by Lessee, as Administrative Agent deems appropriate, based on the information provided by Lessee in its Advance Requests. The Administrative Agent's determination shall be conclusive and binding on Lessee, the Guarantors and the Participants, absent manifest error, and a copy of such allocation, showing such calculation in reasonable detail, shall be promptly provided to Lessee, Arranger and each Participant.

       (x)   the wire transfer instructions for the disbursement of the appropriate amount of funds to Lessee or to such other Persons as may be entitled to such Advance are true and correct.

All documents and instruments required to be delivered on the Second Document Closing Date and in connection with the Advance made on such date pursuant to this Participation Agreement shall be delivered at the offices of Mayer, Brown & Platt, 1675 Broadway, New York, New York 10019-5820 Attention: Michael Sloyer, Esq. or at such other location as the Administrative Agent and Lessee may agree. All documents and instruments required to be delivered on any subsequent Advance Date pursuant to this Participation Agreement shall be delivered to the Administrative Agent, or at such other location as the Required Participants, Administrative Agent, Lessor and Lessee may agree.

Notwithstanding anything contained in clause (a) above to the contrary, at least once per month (which may correspond to the date on which an Advance Request is delivered and which may be included with an Advance Request) Lessee shall deliver a schedule to the Administrative Agent setting forth the amount of Capitalized Interest, Capitalized Yield and Capitalized Fees to be allocated to the Facility Costs, the Equipment Costs and the Excepted Costs for each Uncompleted Facility, each Proposed Site and each Uncompleted Unit then being funded under the Tranches.

(b)   Advance. On each Advance Date, and subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Article VI, Participants shall, as and to the extent provided herein, Fund the Advance by wire transfer directly to Administrative Agent. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that Lessor elects, following an Event of Default, to cause the performance and completion of the Project Obligations with respect to one or more Facilities or Equipment Groups, including the purchase of all or any portion of the Equipment and the Construction of the Site Improvements, with respect to one or more Facilities, then Lessor may submit Advance Requests, the aggregate amount available to be Funded by the Participants shall equal the aggregate amount of the Available Commitments (without regard to the limitations in Section 3.3(a)(ix), but in all cases subject to the limitations and limits set forth in the second sentence of Section 3.1(a)), and such amounts shall be disbursed directly to Lessor or its designee for the payment of Asset Costs.

(c)   Participant Capitalized Costs Advances. At least five (5) Business Days prior to each Payment Date the Administrative Agent shall deliver a notice to Lessee, Lessor and each Participant detailing the amounts to be Funded by each Participant to pay the Participant Capitalized Costs which are due and payable on such date, together with the Interest Period selected for such Advance pursuant to Section 4.8, and the Funding of such Advance shall be made on such Advance Date, and upon the Administrative Agent's receipt of the Funds in respect of such Advance, the Administrative Agent shall distribute such Funds pursuant to Section 5.3(a) to pay the amounts, as applicable, described therein. Except as provided in Section 3.1 and as set forth below at Section 3.4, there shall be no conditions precedent.

Section 3.4   Capitalization of Certain Amounts.

(a)   During the Commitment Period with respect to each Uncompleted Facility and Uncompleted Unit being funded under the Facility Tranche or the Equipment Tranche on each date which is five (5) Business Days prior to any Payment Date, Lessee shall be deemed to have requested an Advance in an amount equal to Participant Capitalized Costs accrued on or with respect to the Loans and Certificate Amounts and Available Commitments during the immediately preceding Interest Period ending on such Payment Date and any Capitalized Contingent Costs then due and payable. The Advance Date with respect to each such Advance for such accrued Participant Capitalized Costs shall be the relevant Payment Date (subject to the terms and conditions for an Advance set forth in this Participation Agreement at Section 3.1 and as provided for below), and the proceeds of such Advance shall be applied to pay such accrued Capitalized Interest, Capitalized Yield, Capitalized Fees and Capitalized Contingent Costs. On each Advance Date on which each such Advance is being made for Participant Capitalized Costs or pursuant to Section 3.3(a) to pay any other Capitalized Contingent Costs, the Asset Costs Funded by the Participants and the Lease Supplement Balance for each Uncompleted Facility, Uncompleted Equipment Group and Proposed Site shall be increased by an amount equal to the Capitalized Interest, Capitalized Yield, Capitalized Fees and Capitalized Contingent Costs so Funded; provided, however, that if an Advance hereunder would exceed the limitations and limits set forth in the second sentence of Section 3.1(a), no Participant shall have any obligation to make such Advance. Unless Lessee otherwise notifies Administrative Agent in writing not later than three (3) Business Days prior to such Payment Date, the making of such Advance shall be deemed a certification by Lessee that such Advance satisfies the conditions at Section 3.1(d) and as to each of the matters set forth at Sections 3.3(a)(ix), (B), (C) and (I) are true and correct with respect to such Advance.

(b)   If any Participant shall request Lessor to capitalize the amount of any Claims relating to a Nonrelated Project Event or any loss or liability resulting from a Casualty or Condemnation occurring during the Commitment Period, any such amount shall be capitalized by automatically treating such amount as an Advance (funded by such Participant) and shall correspondingly increase the Participant Balance of such Participant and the Administrative Agent shall allocate such Advance to the Lease Supplement Balance for the applicable Uncompleted Facility, Uncompleted Unit or Proposed Site. Administrative Agent shall notify Lessee and each Participant of each amount so capitalized and treated as an Advance (and the related increase in Participant Balance and Asset Balance therein) under this Section 3.4 within fifteen (15) days after each such Advance.

Section 3.5   Non-Funding Lender's Portion.

(a)   In the event that any Lender (a "Defaulting Lender") fails to make available to the Administrative Agent on the applicable Advance Date an amount equal to such Lender's Commitment Percentage of the amount of the Advance required by the terms hereof to be funded on such Advance Date, or the Administrative Agent determines that a Lender will become a Defaulting Lender on the applicable Advance Date, the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Lessee thereof and the Lessee shall have the following options: (x) except in respect of any Advance pursuant to Section 3.4 and without in any way waiving the occurrence of any Payment Default, the Lessee may elect to postpone the Funding of the entire Advance (provided, however, that such postponement shall in no event relieve Lessee of its obligation to pay as Contingent Costs any Break Costs suffered or incurred by any Participant as a result of such postponement (other than to the extent of an amount equal to any payment thereof to the Defaulting Lender) as and to the extent required by and pursuant to Article XIV), or (y) the Lessee may elect to have the provisions of clause (b) of this Section 3.5 be applicable. In either event, the Lessee or the Administrative Agent may elect to have the Defaulting Lender replaced with a new Lender acceptable to the Lessee, and the Administrative Agent and the Defaulting Lender shall cooperate (at no cost to the Lessee, Lessor, Non-Defaulting Lenders (as defined below) and Administrative Agent) in replacing such Defaulting Lender. Any replacement of a Defaulting Lender shall not affect any claim, action or right Lessee may have against such Defaulting Lender.

(b)   Upon written request from the Lessee to the Administrative Agent, the Administrative Agent shall (i) promptly notify each other Lender (each, a "Non-Defaulting Lender"), (ii) specify the then Available Commitment (as used in this Section 3.5(b), the "Defaulted Lender Commitment Amount") of the Defaulting Lender and (iii) give to all Non-Defaulting Lenders the opportunity to increase their respective Commitments by notice in writing to Administrative Agent within five (5) Business Days of Administrative Agent's notice in clause (i) above. If the Non-Defaulting Lenders offer to increase their Commitments in an amount in the aggregate not less than the Commitment Shortfall but in no event greater than the Defaulted Lender Commitment Amount, Administrative Agent shall increase the Commitments of the participating Non-Defaulting Lenders on a pro-rata basis in accordance with the respective amounts by which such Non-Defaulting Lenders have offered to participate, it being understood that in no event shall the aggregate amount funded by any Lender exceed the amount of such Lender's Commitment, after giving effect to any increase in such Commitment pursuant to this sentence. In lieu thereof, if no Commitment Shortfall exists, Lessee may request that the Administrative Agent reallocate the Loan Commitments of the Non-Defaulting Lenders and increase the Non-Defaulting Lenders' Commitment Percentages so that the portion of such Advance and each future Advance to be made by the Lenders be made by the Non-Defaulting Lenders ratably on the basis of the reallocated Loan Commitments and Commitment Percentages.

As soon as practical after receipt of notices from Non-Defaulting Lenders electing to participate in the Defaulted Lender Commitment Amount in an amount not less than the Commitment Shortfall, but in no event greater than the Defaulted Lender Commitment or a reallocation of the Loan Commitments of the Non-Defaulting Lenders to the extent permitted above, Administrative Agent shall notify each participating Lender of its revised Loan Commitment or Commitment Percentage, as the case may be, Lessee may resubmit such Advance Request and each Lender shall transfer to Administrative Agent, in immediately available funds, its pro rata share of the requested Advance, determined in proportion to the revised Loan Commitments of the Lenders. The Aggregate Commitment Amount and Aggregate Available Commitment shall be deemed to be reduced to the extent that the Loan Commitments of the Non-Defaulting Lenders, following a revision of Loan Commitments or Commitment Percentages as provided for above, are less than the aggregate Loan Commitments of all Lenders (including the Defaulting Lender) prior to making any such revision. Following a revision of the Loan Commitments or Commitment Percentages and a reduction in the Aggregate Commitment Amount and Aggregate Available Commitments as described above, a Defaulting Lender shall not have the right to Fund its Defaulted Lender Commitment Amount with respect to such Advance or any future Advance, unless Administrative Agent and Lessee agree to reinstate such Lender's Commitment Amount, but only to the extent necessary to restore any adjustment in Commitment Percentages arising solely as a result of a reallocation as provided for above in this paragraph.

Unless (i) Non-Defaulting Lenders offer to increase their Loan Commitments in an amount not less than the Commitment Shortfall, (ii) the Defaulting Lender is replaced pursuant to Section 3.5(a), or (iii) if no Commitment Shortfall exists, Lessee requests that the Administrative Agent reallocate the Loan Commitments of the Non-Defaulting Lenders, no Non-Defaulting Lender or Certificate Holder shall be obligated to fund any Advances.

Section 3.6   Non-Funding Certificate Holder's Portion.

(a)   In the event that any Certificate Holder (a "Defaulting Certificate Holder") fails to Fund to the Administrative Agent on the applicable Advance Date an amount equal to such Certificate Holder's Commitment Percentage of the amount of the Advance required by the terms hereof to be funded on such Advance Date, or the Administrative Agent determines that a Certificate Holder will become a Defaulting Certificate Holder on the applicable Advance Date, the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Lessee thereof and the Lessee shall have either or both of the following options: (x) the Lessee may elect to postpone the funding of the entire Advance (provided, however, that such postponement shall in no event relieve Lessee of its obligation to pay as Contingent Costs any Break Costs suffered or incurred by any Participant as and to the extent required by and pursuant to Article XIV) (other than to the extent of an amount equal to any payment thereof to the Defaulting Certificate Holder), and/or (y) the Lessee may elect to have the provisions of clause (b) of this Section 3.6 be applicable. The Lessee or the Administrative Agent may elect to have the Defaulting Certificate Holder replaced with a new Certificate Holder acceptable to the Lessee, and the Administrative Agent and the Defaulting Certificate Holder shall cooperate (at no cost to the Lessor, Non-Defaulting Lenders and Administrative Agent) in replacing such Defaulting Certificate Holder.

(b)   Upon written request from the Lessee to the Administrative Agent, the Administrative Agent shall (i) promptly notify each other Certificate Holder (each, a "Non-Defaulting Certificate Holder"), (ii) specify the then Available Commitment (as used in this Section 3.6(b), the "Defaulted Certificate Holder Commitment Amount") of the Defaulting Certificate Holder and (iii) give to all Non-Defaulting Certificate Holders the opportunity to increase their respective Commitments by notice in writing to Administrative Agent within five (5) Business Days of Administrative Agent's notice in clause (i) above. If the Non-Defaulting Certificate Holders offer to increase their Commitments in the aggregate in an amount not less than the Commitment Shortfall but in no event greater than the Defaulted Certificate Holder Commitment Amount, Administrative Agent shall increase the Commitments of the participating Non-Defaulting Certificate Holders on a pro-rata basis in accordance with the respective amounts by which such Non-Defaulting Certificate Holders have offered to participate, it being understood that in no event shall the aggregate amount funded by any Certificate Holder exceed the amount of such Certificate Holder's Commitment, after giving effect to any increase in such Commitment pursuant to this sentence. In lieu thereof, if no Commitment Shortfall exists, Lessee may request that the Administrative Agent reallocate the Certificate Commitments of the Non-Defaulting Certificate Holders and increase the Non-Defaulting Certificate Holders' Commitment Percentages so that the portion of such Advance and each future Advance to be made by the Certificate Holders be made by the Non-Defaulting Certificate Holders ratably on the basis of the reallocated Certificate Commitments and Commitment Percentages.

As soon as practical after receipt of notices from Non-Defaulting Certificate Holders electing to participate in the Defaulted Certificate Holder Commitment Amount in an amount not less than the Commitment Shortfall but in no event greater than the Defaulted Certificate Holder Commitment Amount or a reallocation of the Certificate Commitments of the Non-Defaulting Certificate Holders to the extent permitted above, Administrative Agent shall notify each participating Certificate Holder of its revised Certificate Commitment or Commitment Percentage, as the case may be, Lessee may resubmit such Advance Request, and each Certificate Holder shall transfer to Administrative Agent, in immediately available funds, its pro rata share of the requested Advance, determined in proportion to the revised Certificate Commitments or Commitment Percentages, as the case may be, of the Certificate Holders. The Aggregate Commitment Amount and Aggregate Available Commitment shall be deemed to be reduced to the extent that the Certificate Commitments of the Non-Defaulting Certificate Holders, following a revision of Certificate Commitments or Commitment Percentages as provided for above, are less than the aggregate Certificate Commitments of all Certificate Holders (including the Defaulting Certificate Holder) prior to making any such revision. Following a revision of the Certificate Commitments or Commitment Percentage and a reduction in the Aggregate Commitment Amount and Aggregate Available Commitments as described above, a Defaulting Certificate Holder shall not have the right to fund its Defaulted Certificate Holder Commitment Amount with respect to such Advance or any future Advance, unless Administrative Agent and Lessee agree to reinstate such Certificate Holder's Commitment Amount, but only to the extent necessary to restore any adjustment in Commitment Percentages arising solely as a result of a reallocation as provided for above in this paragraph.

Unless (i) Non-Defaulting Certificate Holders offer to increase their Certificate Commitments in an amount not less than the Commitment Shortfall, or (ii) the Defaulting Certificate Holder is replaced pursuant to Section 3.6(a), or (iii) if no Commitment Shortfall exists, Lessee requests that the Administrative Agent reallocate the Certificate Commitments of the Non-Defaulting Certificate Holders, no Non-Defaulting Certificate Holder or Lender shall be obligated to fund any Advances.

Section 3.7   Additional Rights of Lessee. In the event Lessee receives notice from Administrative Agent of any Defaulted Amounts under either Section 3.5 or Section 3.6, or both, the Lessee shall have the rights set forth under Article XI in addition to any other rights that Lessee may have against any Defaulting Lender or Defaulting Certificate Holder, at law or equity.

Section 3.8   Cash Collateralization.

(a)   On the Cash Collateralization Date, Lessee shall deposit in a cash collateral account ("Cash Collateral Account") opened at a Qualified Financial Institution (the "Collateral Agent"), an amount in cash equal to 100% of the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Class A Notes, excluding the Notes of any New Class A Noteholders (the "Required Cash Collateral Amount"). Such Cash Collateral Account shall be opened in the name of the Collateral Agent for the benefit of such Class A Noteholders. Lessee hereby grants to the Collateral Party, for the benefit of the Lessor and the Participants, a security interest in the Cash Collateral Account, such cash collateral and all amounts and instruments held in the Cash Collateral Account, any and all Permitted Investments, and any instruments acquired with such funds to secure the obligations of the Lessee under the Lease and the other Operative Agreements. Amounts held in such Cash Collateral Account may be invested in Permitted Investments at the direction of the Lessee, and such amounts, including any interest earned on such amounts, shall be applied by the Administrative Agent to the payment of the Obligations (except to the extent distributed to Lessee pursuant to Section 3.8(b)) when due under the Lease and the other Operative Agreements. Prior to the Cash Collateralization Date, Lessee shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent for the benefit of Lessor and the Participants, such further documents and instruments as the Administrative Agent may reasonably request to evidence the creation and perfection of the security interest in such Cash Collateral Account, including a Security Agreement, financing statements, acknowledgments, and an opinion of counsel, subject to standard exceptions, as to Collateral Party's first priority security interest in all such collateral.

(b)   If (i) on the last day of each March, June, September and December the aggregate amount of cash plus the fair market value of Permitted Investments in the Cash Collateral Account exceeds 100% of the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Class A Notes, other than the Notes held by the New Class A Noteholders (such excess, the "Excess Collateral Amount"), (ii) at least five (5) Business Days prior to any such date specified in clause (i) above, Lessee shall have delivered a written notice to Administrative Agent requesting that any such Excess Collateral Amount be paid to it, and (iii) no Event of Default or Default shall have occurred and be continuing, then the Administrative Agent shall direct the Collateral Agent to cause an amount of cash (including cash proceeds from the liquidation of any Permitted Investments in the Cash Collateral Account) equal to the Excess Collateral Amount (calculated as of the date of withdrawal by the Collateral Agent, provided that prior to any withdrawal the Administrative Agent shall have determined that the calculation by the Collateral Agent is correct, such determination which shall be made by 2:00 p.m. on the date of the withdrawal provided that the Administrative Agent has received sufficient documentation supporting such calculation on or before 10:00 a.m. on the date of the withdrawal), less any penalty or charge applicable to the liquidation of the Permitted Investments being liquidated in connection therewith to be withdrawn from the Cash Collateral Account and paid to Lessee, provided that after giving effect to such withdrawal and the payment of any such penalties or charges, the amount on deposit in the Cash Collateral Account equals or exceeds the Required Cash Collateral Amount. The Administrative Agent shall not be liable to Lessee or any other Person for any losses (including loss of profits) arising from the liquidation of any Permitted Investments in order to pay the Excess Collateral Amount pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence.

Section 3.9   Refinancing. Lessee may, by written notice to Trustee, Administrative Agent, and each of the Participants, request that Trustee enter into documentation to refinance the Class A Notes in whole or in part with a bond facility (a "Replacement Facility") arranged by or on behalf of Lessee. Any Replacement Facility shall be in an aggregate principal amount and for a tenor equal to the Class A Notes being refinanced, and the holders of notes in the Replacement Facility shall assume the Loan Commitments and related Funding and other obligations of the Repaid Class A Noteholders under the Loan Agreement allocable to such Repaid Class A Noteholder's Class A Notes, and Guarantors and Lessee shall each execute and deliver to the Repaid Class A Noteholders a release in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to them, releasing each of them from such obligations following the date of such transfer. The terms and conditions of the documentation implementing any Replacement Facility shall be subject to the review and approval of the Certificate Holders, the Remaining Original Class A Noteholders, and the Class B Noteholders, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld. The Certificate Holders, the Remaining Original Class A Noteholders and the Class B Noteholders may condition their approval solely (a) on a good faith determination that (i) the rights and obligations of the lenders in the Replacement Facility and the terms and conditions set forth in the documentation thereof will not expose the Certificate Holders, the Remaining Original Class A Noteholders and the Class B Noteholders to any new or additional expense, liability or obligation for which they are not fully indemnified by Lessee or the Guarantors and (ii) the substitution of the Loans with the Replacement Facility will not adversely affect the loan or investment value or accounting or tax treatment of the Certificate Holders', the Remaining Original Class A Noteholders' or Class B Noteholders' loans or investments, the rights and interests of the Certificate Holders, the Remaining Original Class A Noteholders, and the Class B Noteholders in the Collateral, or to make claims against the Lessee or the Guarantors. Any Replacement Facility shall be used solely for the repayment in whole or in part of Class A Notes including any accrued interest and other amounts due the Class A Noteholders whose Notes are repaid through and including the date such refinancing is consummated. All of the rights of the Class A Noteholders whose Notes are repaid under Article XIII shall survive the repayment of the Repaid Class A Notes. Immediately prior to the repayment of the Repaid Class A Notes, the parties participating in the Replacement Facility shall enter into documentation, reasonably satisfactory to the Certificate Holders, the Remaining Original Class A Noteholders and the Class B Noteholders, agreeing to be bound by and to assume all of the obligations of the Class A Noteholders whose Notes are repaid under the Operative Agreements and the Certificate Holders, Class B Noteholders and the Remaining Original Class A Noteholders shall receive from the Guarantors a written reaffirmation of the Guarantors' obligations under each of the Guarantees in form and substance satisfactory to the Certificate Holders, the Remaining Original Class A Noteholders and the Class B Noteholders, subject to the terms and conditions of the documentation implementing the Replacement Facility if approved by the other Participants as set forth above. Upon repayment of the Class A Notes to be repaid, the bonds or other instruments issued under the Replacement Facility shall be deemed "Class A Notes" for purposes of the Operative Agreements.

Section 3.10   Optional Commitment Reduction. At the option of the Lessee, from time to time during the Commitment Period, exercisable by written notice to the Administrative Agent (the "Commitment Reduction Notice"), the Lessee may request the Administrative Agent to reduce the Aggregate Available Commitment and Aggregate Commitment Amount, and the Administrative Agent shall notify the Participants of such request and the Participants shall each reduce the unused portion of their respective Commitments, subject, in the case of clauses (iii) and (iv) below, to the reasonable satisfaction of Administrative Agent of the following provisions:

       (i)   such notice from the Lessee shall specify the aggregate amount of such reduction for all Participants, which amount shall be either (x) $10,000,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof, or (y) the remaining unfunded amount of the Available Commitments;

       (ii)   such notice shall specify the effective date of such reduction, such effective date to be a Payment Date not earlier than fifteen (15) Business Days after the date of such notice or such earlier date as may be acceptable to the Administrative Agent;

       (iii)   such notice shall specify if such notice is being given in connection with a purchase of Assets pursuant to Section 18.1(b) or (c) of the Lease;

       (iv)   in such notice, Lessee shall certify to the Lessor, each Participant and Administrative Agent: (A) that, after giving effect to such reduction, the remaining Available Commitments will equal or exceed the Unfunded Future Payment Amounts as of the effective date of such reduction and after giving effect to the purchase of Assets, if any, pursuant to Sections 18.1(b) or (c) of the Lease, (B) that the remaining Contingency Reserves, after such reduction of the Commitments are sufficient for reasonably foreseeable contingencies which might occur during the remaining course of Construction and Acquisition of the Equipment, including Break Costs and Default Completion Costs, if any, which may be incurred based on events occurring on or prior to the date of reduction, (C) the anticipated date on which the Construction and Acquisition of the Equipment and Facilities will be completed, and (D) that Lessee has satisfied all conditions specified in Article XVIII of the Lease to the purchase, if any, of Assets pursuant to Section 18.1(b) or (c) of the Lease, and such certificate shall be accompanied by such information and documentation as Administrative Agent may reasonably request to demonstrate the accuracy of such certifications;

       (v)   any such notice given in connection with a purchase of Assets pursuant to Section 18.1(b) or (c) of the Lease shall be irrevocable when given;

       (vi)   all fees, expenses, Transaction Costs and other amounts accrued with respect to the portion of the Commitments so reduced through the effective date of such reduction shall be paid in accordance with Section 15.18 (provided that, with respect to any such fee, cost or expense allocable to an Uncompleted Unit or Uncompleted Facility pursuant to Section 3.2(b), Lessee shall pay such amounts from the proceeds of Advances pursuant to the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Participation Agreement relating to Advances and provided amounts therefore are reserved for the applicable budget); and

       (vii)    (A) Except as provided for in Section 3.5 or 3.6, any reduction of the Available Commitments shall be made pro rata among the Lenders and the Certificate Holders based upon the amounts of their respective Commitments, and (B) unless such reduction was made solely for the purpose of continuing Advances pursuant to Section 3.5 or 3.6, reductions of the Available Commitments pursuant to this Section 3.10 may not be reinstated.

Following such reduction, the Administrative Agent shall reduce the Commitments of each Participant and amend Schedules I and II to reflect all such reductions.

Section 3.11   Optional Commitment Increase.

(a)   It is acknowledged and agreed among the parties that it is anticipated that the Commitments hereunder will be increased after the date hereof by the addition of new Participants, and the Commitments of the existing Participants may be increased, as contemplated by this Section 3.11(a); provided, that the Aggregate Commitment Amount shall not exceed $1,200,000,000. From time to time at the election of the Lessee, additional Participants may become party to this Participation Agreement and the applicable related Operative Agreements, as Certificate Holders or Lenders (provided that any proposed new Participant must meet the requirements set forth in the definition of "Eligible Assignee" to the reasonable satisfaction of the Administrative Agent) by virtue of the execution and delivery of a completed New Party Supplement substantially in the form of Exhibit Q-1 hereto in the case of Lenders and Exhibit Q-2 hereto in the case of Certificate Holders or in either case in such other form as may be agreed to by the Administrative Agent in its reasonable discretion, executed by the Lessee, such proposed new Participant, the Administrative Agent, and the Trustee. The Administrative Agent and the Trustee agree to execute and deliver such New Party Supplement promptly upon the request of the Lessee. Upon such execution by the Lessee, the proposed new Participant, the Administrative Agent, and the Trustee, each such new Participant shall become a Lender or Certificate Holder, as specified in such New Party Supplement, for all purposes hereunder and under the applicable related Operative Agreements as if originally a party hereto. In addition, the Commitment of any existing Participant may, at the request of the Lessee and with the consent of such Participant, from time to time be increased by the execution and delivery by such Participant (in its discretion), the Administrative Agent, the Trustee and the Lessee of a completed Participant Increase Supplement, substantially in the form of Exhibit R, or in such other form as may be agreed to by the Administrative Agent in its reasonable discretion, and upon such execution and delivery by such parties, the provisions hereof and of the other Operative Agreements which refer to such Commitment shall be deemed amended, mutatis mutandis, to reflect such increase in such Participant's Commitment. The Administrative Agent will cause Schedule I and Schedule II regarding Commitments and Commitment Percentages to be revised, with a copy sent to Lessee, each time a New Party Supplement or Participant Increase Supplement has been delivered in accordance with the terms of this Section 3.11(a). Notwithstanding anything contained herein or in any other Operative Agreement to the contrary, this Section 3.11 shall be of no further force and effect at such time as the Commitments are reduced for the first time pursuant to Section 3.10 unless such reduction is made solely for the purposes of continuing Advances pursuant to Section 3.5 or 3.6.

(b)   Upon the delivery of any New Party Supplement or Participant Increase Supplement, the Administrative Agent shall calculate the reallocation of outstanding Loans and Certificate Amounts such that, after giving effect to the increased Commitment represented by such supplement, each Participant holds its applicable share of Loans and Certificate Amounts based on the percentage its Loan Commitment or Certificate Commitment bears to the aggregate Loan Commitments or Certificate Commitments, as applicable (after giving effect to the increased Commitment). The Administrative Agent shall prepare a schedule showing proposed transfers of funds among the Participants to effect the reallocated Loans and Certificate Amounts, and shall provide a copy of such schedule to each Participant. Within ten (10) Business Days following the delivery of such schedule to the Participants, each Participant shall notify the Administrative Agent whether it agrees or disagrees with such calculation. Upon the expiration of such ten (10) Business Day period, the Administrative Agent shall either confirm to the Participants the correctness of the original schedule, or distribute to the Participants a corrected schedule. On the Payment Date following such confirmation or delivery of a corrected schedule, each Participant shall transfer funds to the other Participants if and to the extent reflected on such schedule, whereupon the Loans and Certificate Amounts, as applicable, of each such Participant shall be deemed reallocated as of such date. To the extent necessary to reflect such reallocated Loans and Certificate Amounts, as applicable, each Participant, the Administrative Agent and the Trustee shall cooperate to effect the exchange of Notes and Certificates, and the issuance of new Notes and Certificates, in each case pursuant to the applicable provisions of the Loan Agreement and the Trust Agreement, necessary to properly evidence the Loans and Certificate Amounts as so reallocated.

ARTICLE IV
YIELD; INTEREST

Section 4.1   Yield. The amount of the Certificate Amounts outstanding from time to time shall accrue Yield at the Yield Rate, calculated using the actual number of days elapsed and, during the initial Interest Period and when the Yield Rate is based on the LIBO Rate (Reserve Adjusted), a 360-day year basis and, at all other times, a 365- (or, if applicable, 366) day-year basis. If all or any portion of the Certificate Amounts outstanding, any Yield payable thereon or any other amount payable hereunder shall not be paid when due (whether at stated maturity, acceleration thereof or otherwise), such overdue amount shall bear interest at a rate per annum which is equal to the Overdue Rate.

Section 4.2   Interest on Loans. Each Loan shall accrue Interest computed and payable in accordance with the terms of the Loan Agreement.

(a)   The Lessor hereby directs the Lessee to pay to the Administrative Agent, pursuant to the terms of the Lease, the Rent (other than Excepted Payments, which the Lessor hereby directs the Lessee to make directly to the applicable Person entitled thereto) from time to time payable (which prior to the Applicable Base Term Commencement Date shall be paid for with Advances). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Operative Agreement, except as provided for in the proviso at the end of this sentence and excluding amounts payable by other Persons which Lessee is required to pay over to Lessor, Administrative Agent or any Participant (i) Interest, Yield, Fees and Contingent Costs due and payable and which are allocable to Asset Costs funded for any Uncompleted Facility or Uncompleted Unit and (ii) any other Supplemental Rent, or prior to any Applicable Base Term Commencement Date which would following such date constitute Supplemental Rent, payable for or with respect to any Uncompleted Facility or Uncompleted Unit shall be payable solely from Advances pursuant to the terms and conditions of Section 3.1 to the extent of the Available Commitments; provided, however, that all payments or other amounts whether or not accruing prior to the Applicable Base Term Commencement Date for any Facility or Equipment Group (x) pursuant to Article XIII (other than with respect to Section 13.4), or (y) subject to Section 5.3 of the Supervisory Agreement, if applicable, payable by Lessee pursuant to Section 3.2(c), 3.4 or Article V of the Supervisory Agreement or Article XVI or Section 18.4 of the Lease, shall be the direct recourse obligations of Lessee and shall not be payable with Advances.

(b)   In the event that the Lessee pays any Lease Supplement Balance to the Lessor in connection with the Lessee's purchase of any Facility or Equipment Group in accordance with Section 15.1, 18.1 or Article XIX of the Lease, the Lessor will prepay the outstanding principal amount of the Loans and Certificate Amounts in an amount equal to such Lease Supplement Balance. Each of the Participants hereby acknowledges that its Loans or Certificate Amounts, as the case may be, may be so prepaid without any prepayment premium or charge (other than Break Costs, if any).

Section 4.4   Fees; Contingent Costs.

(a)   Lessee agrees to pay the fees set forth in this Section 4.4 (collectively, the "Fees"). During the Commitment Period, the Fees shall be paid solely with Advances pursuant to the terms and conditions set forth in Article III and Article VI.

(b)   Lessee agrees to pay the following fees (collectively, the "Commitment Fees") to the Persons indicated below (provided, however, that any Commitment Fees payable to the Participants shall be paid to the Administrative Agent on their behalf) from time to time during the Term:

       (i)   An "Upfront Fee" for the benefit of each Lender and Certificate Holder payable on the first Payment Date occurring on the date of or after such Person becomes a Participant.

       (ii)   An "Available Commitment Fee" payable quarterly in arrears on the last day of March, June, September and December of each year commencing on June 30, 2001 for the benefit of each Lender and Certificate Holder in an amount equal to the Available Commitment Fee accrued for the quarterly period ending on such quarterly payment dates. The Available Commitment Fee shall be equal to the Applicable Margin calculated on a per annum basis on an amount equal to the daily unused portion of the aggregate Commitment (computed on the basis of a year of 360 days and actual days elapsed).

The Administrative Agent shall provide to the Lessee from time to time not less than seven (7) Business Days prior to the due date(s) for each Available Commitment Fee, a written statement of the amount of the Available Commitment Fee then due, the due date therefor and the calculation thereof; provided, however, that Administrative Agent's failure to give such notice shall not relieve Lessee of its obligation to pay when due all Available Commitment Fees.

(c)   Other Fees. The Lessee also agrees to pay (i) to Trustee, for its own account, the fees set forth in the Trustee Fee Letter, payable in the amounts and on the dates set forth therein, (ii) to the Administrative Agent, for its own account, the fees set forth in the Syndication Letter, (iii) to the Arranger, the fees set forth in the Syndication Letter, and (iv) to Citicorp USA, Inc., the fees set forth in the letter dated April 30, 2001 among Citicorp USA, Inc., the Lessee, the Trust, PPL Corporation and the Administrative Agent.

Section 4.6   Highest Lawful Rate. It is the intention of the parties hereto to conform strictly to applicable usury laws and, anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, the obligations of (x) Lessee to Lessor under this Participation Agreement and the Lease, (y) Lessor to the Certificate Holders under the Trust Agreement and the Certificates and to the Lenders under the Loan Agreement and the Notes, and (z) either Lessee or Lessor or any other party under any other Operative Agreement shall be subject to the limitation that payments of interest or of other amounts constituting interest under Applicable Laws shall not be required to the extent that receipt thereof would be in excess of the Highest Lawful Rate, or otherwise contrary to provisions of law applicable to the recipient limiting rates of interest which may be charged or collected by the recipient. Accordingly, if the transactions or the amount paid or otherwise agreed to be paid for the use, forbearance or detention of money under this Participation Agreement, the Lease, the Trust Agreement, the Certificates, the Loan Agreement, the Notes or any other Operative Agreement would exceed the Highest Lawful Rate or otherwise be usurious under Applicable Laws (including without limitation the federal and state laws of the United States of America, or of any other jurisdiction whose laws may be mandatorily applicable) with respect to the recipient of any such amount, then, in that event, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Participation Agreement, the Lease, the Trust Agreement, the Certificates, the Loan Agreement, the Notes or any other Operative Agreement, it is agreed as follows as to the recipient of any such amount:

(a)   the provisions of this Section 4.6 shall govern and control over any other provision in this Participation Agreement, the Lease, the Trust Agreement, the Certificates, the Loan Agreement, the Notes and any other Operative Agreement, and each provision set forth therein is hereby so limited;

(b)   the aggregate of all consideration which constitutes interest under Applicable Laws that is contracted for, charged or received under this Participation Agreement, the Lease, the Trust Agreement, the Certificates, the Loan Agreement, the Notes or any other Operative Agreement shall under no circumstances exceed the maximum amount of interest allowed by Applicable Laws (such maximum lawful interest rate, if any, with respect to such recipient herein called the "Highest Lawful Rate"), and all amounts owed under this Participation Agreement, the Lease, the Trust Agreement, the Certificates, the Loan Agreement, the Notes and any other Operative Agreement shall be held subject to reduction and: (i) the amount of interest which would otherwise be payable to the recipient hereunder and under the Lease, the Trust Agreement, the Certificates, the Loan Agreement, the Notes and any other Operative Agreement shall be automatically reduced to the amount allowed under Applicable Laws, and (ii) any unearned interest paid in excess of the Highest Lawful Rate shall be credited to the payor by the recipient (or, if such consideration shall have been paid in full, refunded to the payor);

(c)   all sums paid, or agreed to be paid for the use, forbearance and detention of the money under this Participation Agreement, the Lease, the Trust Agreement, the Certificates, the Loan Agreement, the Notes or any other Operative Agreement shall, to the extent permitted by Applicable Laws, be amortized, prorated, allocated and spread throughout the full term of such indebtedness until payment in full so that the actual rate of interest is uniform throughout the full term thereof; and

(d)   if at any time the interest, together with any other fees, late charges and other sums payable pursuant to or in connection with this Participation Agreement, the Lease, the Trust Agreement, the Certificates, the Loan Agreement, the Notes and any other Operative Agreement executed in connection herewith or therewith and deemed interest under Applicable Laws, exceeds that amount which would have accrued at the Highest Lawful Rate, the amount of interest and any such fees, charges and sums to accrue to the recipient of such interest, fees, charges and sums pursuant to the Operative Agreements shall be limited, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Operative Agreements, to that amount which would have accrued at the Highest Lawful Rate for the recipient, but any subsequent reductions, as applicable, shall not reduce the interest to accrue pursuant to the Operative Agreements below the recipient's Highest Lawful Rate until the total amount of interest payable to the recipient (including all consideration which constitutes interest) equals the amount of interest which would have been payable to the recipient (including all consideration which constitutes interest), plus the amount of fees which would have been received but for the effect of this Section 4.6.

Section 4.7   Extension of Maturity Date and Expiration Date.

(a)   Lessee may, by written request to Administrative Agent (which request Administrative Agent shall forward to each Participant not later than three (3) Business Days following Administrative Agent's receipt of such request) given not earlier than four hundred fifty (450) days and not later than three hundred sixty (360) days prior to the expiration of the Base Term (a "Base Term Extension Request") request that the Expiration Date be extended to June 30, 2013 with respect to all of the Assets, except Assets for which Lessee has given a Purchase Notice which has become irrevocable pursuant to Article XVIII of the Lease. No later than the date (the "Base Term Extension Response Date") which is forty-five (45) days after such request has been delivered to each Participant, each Participant shall notify Administrative Agent in writing whether or not it consents to such Base Term Extension Request, provided that any Participant that fails to so advise Administrative Agent on or prior to the Base Term Extension Response Date shall be deemed to have denied such Base Term Extension Request, and such Participant and any Participant that has notified Administrative Agent that it does not consent to the Base Term Extension Request shall be deemed to be a "Non-Consenting Participant", subject to Lessee's right, to the extent permitted pursuant to Section 4.7(b) to replace any Participant who does not consent to such Base Term Extension Request. The extension of the Expiration Date contemplated by any Base Term Extension Request shall become effective as of the first date (the "Base Term Extension Effective Date" with respect to such extension) on or after the Base Term Extension Response Date on which all of the following conditions have been satisfied or waived by each Participant (other than Non-Consenting Participants who have been replaced to the extent permitted pursuant to Section 4.7(b) below) and each Replacement Participant:

       (i)   on both the date of the Base Term Extension Request and the Base Term Extension Effective Date, (w) each of the representations and warranties made by Lessee in or pursuant to the Participation Agreement and each Guarantor in the Guarantees shall be true and correct in all material respects as if made on and as of each such date, except that any such representation or warranty which was expressly made only as of a specified date was true in all material respects only as of such date, (x) no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, (y) Lessee shall not have elected the Sale Option and, with respect to the Lease Supplements to which the Base Term Extension Request applies, Lessee shall not have elected the Purchase Option; and (z) on each of such dates Administrative Agent shall have received a certificate of Lessee as to the matters relating to Lessee and Guarantor set forth in clauses (w), (x) and (y) above; and

       (ii)   each of the Participants (other than Non-Consenting Participants who have been replaced to the extent permitted pursuant to Section 4.7(b) below), and the Replacement Participants shall have consented to the Base Term Extension Request on or prior to the date which is 290 days prior to the expiration of the Base Term or, so long as Lessee has not elected the Sale Option, 270 days prior to the expiration of the Base Term.

(b)   At any time after the Base Term Extension Response Date and prior to 290 days prior to the expiration of the Base Term or, so long as Lessee has not elected the Sale Option, 270 days prior to the expiration of the Base Term, Lessee shall be permitted to replace any Non-Consenting Participant with a replacement bank or other financial institution (a "Replacement Participant") in accordance with Section 11.

Section 4.8   Determination of Rates and Interest Periods. The Lessee on behalf of Lessor shall select whether the rate of Interest and Yield for each Interest Period (the "Applicable Rate") will be determined by reference to the LIBO Rate or the Alternate Base Rate by giving notice (by telephone, promptly confirmed in writing) of that determination to the Administrative Agent no later than 10:00 a.m. (New York City time) (i) in the case of the LIBO Rate, on the third Business Day before the commencement of such Interest Period, and (ii) in the case of the Alternate Base Rate, on each Interest Reset Date. If the Lessee timely gives notice that the Applicable Rate be determined by reference to the LIBO Rate, Lessee shall also specify in such notice the applicable Interest Period. If the Lessee fails to timely give notice that the Applicable Rate be determined by reference to the LIBO Rate, then, as of the third Business Day prior to the commencement of the relevant Interest Period, the Lessee shall be deemed to have selected the Applicable Rate to be determined by reference to the LIBO Rate for a one (1) month Interest Period.

Section 4.9   Conversion of Applicable Rates. Subject to the notice requirement set forth in Section 4.8 and to the payment of all Break Costs (including the payment of Break Costs in the event the Lessee elects to convert the reference for the Applicable Rate from the LIBO Rate to the Alternate Base Rate after the Lessee shall have been deemed to have elected that the Applicable Rate be determined by reference to the LIBO Rate pursuant to the last sentence of Section 4.8), the Lessee may elect to convert the reference for the Applicable Rate from the LIBO Rate to the Alternate Base Rate, or elect a different Interest Period, on three (3) Business Days' prior notice to the Administrative Agent. Subject to the notice requirement set forth in Section 4.8, the Lessee may elect to convert the reference for the Applicable Rate from the Base Rate to the LIBO Rate on any Business Day.

Section 4.10   Number of Elections. All elections by Lessee hereunder shall be subject to the limitations set forth in the definition of "Interest Period."

ARTICLE V
CERTAIN INTENTIONS OF THE PARTIES

Section 5.1   Nature of Transaction. It is the intention of the parties that:

(a)   the Overall Transaction constitutes an operating lease from Lessor to Lessee for purposes of Lessee's financial reporting, including, without limitation, under Financial Accounting Standards Board Statement No. 13;

(b)   for all other purposes, including federal and all state and local income and transfer taxes, bankruptcy, insolvency, conservatorships and receiverships (including the substantive law upon which bankruptcy, conservatorship and insolvency and receivership proceedings are based) purposes:

       (i)   the Overall Transaction (including, without limitation, the transactions and activities during the Commitment Period referred to or contemplated by the Supervisory Agreement) constitutes a debt financing by the Participants to Lessee and preserves beneficial ownership in the Assets in Lessee, and the obligations of Lessee to pay Basic Rent shall be treated as payments of interest to the Participants, and the payment by Lessee of any amounts in respect of the Asset Balance shall be treated as payments of principal to the Participants;

       (ii)   the Lease provides for a security interest or Lien, as the case may be, in the Assets and the other Collateral, in favor of the Lessor, and for the benefit of the Participants, to secure Lessee's payment and performance of the Obligations; and

       (iii)   the Security Instruments create Liens on and security interests in the Assets and the other Collateral, for the benefit of all of the Participants to secure Lessor's payment and performance of the Loan Agreement, Trust Agreement, Notes, Certificates and other applicable Operative Agreements.

Nevertheless, Lessee acknowledges and agrees that none of Lessor, the Administrative Agent, Arranger or any Participant has made any representations or warranties concerning the tax, accounting or legal characteristics of the Operative Agreements or any aspect of the Overall Transaction and that Lessee has obtained and relied upon such tax, accounting and legal advice concerning the Operative Agreements and the Overall Transaction as it deems appropriate.

(c)   Specifically, without limiting the generality of clause (a), the parties hereto intend and agree that in the event of any insolvency, conservatorship or receivership proceedings or matters or a petition under the United States bankruptcy laws, or any other applicable insolvency, conservatorship or receivership laws or statute of the United States of America or any State or Commonwealth thereof affecting Lessee, Guarantor, Lessor, the Certificate Holders or the Lenders or any collection actions, the transactions evidenced by the Operative Agreements (including, without limitation, the Lease) constitute a financing made directly to Lessee by the Participants, in each case as unrelated third party lenders, and that Lessor holds title to the Assets for the benefit of the Participants to secure Lessee's obligations to repay such financing to the Participants and all other amounts due under any of the Operative Agreements.

Section 5.2   Amounts Due Under Lease. Anything else herein or elsewhere to the contrary notwithstanding, it is the intention of the Lessee, the Lessor, the Certificate Holders and the Lenders that: (i) the amount and timing of installments of Basic Rent due and payable from time to time under the Lease shall be equal to the aggregate payments due and payable as Interest on the Loans and Yield on the Certificate Amounts on each Payment Date; provided, however, that prior to the Applicable Base Term Commencement Date for any Uncompleted Facility or Uncompleted Unit, Lessee shall cause all Capitalized Costs and any other Supplemental Rent to be paid from Advances; (ii) if the Lessee elects the Early Termination Option, the Purchase Option or becomes obligated or otherwise elects to purchase the Assets or, to the extent permitted, certain Equipment or a Facility or a Proposed Site, the Loans, the Certificate Amounts, all accrued and unpaid Interest and Yield thereon, any Fees and all other obligations of the Lessee owing to the Lessor and the Participants shall be paid by the Lessee to the extent of the purchase amounts payable thereon; (iii) if the Lessee properly elects the Sale Option and subject to Articles XX and XXI of the Lease, the Lessee shall only be required to pay to the Administrative Agent the proceeds of the sale of the Assets, the Aggregate RVG Amount and any amounts due pursuant to Section 20.2 of the Lease (which aggregate amounts may be less than the unpaid principal of the Notes and Certificates), together with all other amounts due and payable as Supplemental Rent, but subject to the rights of the parties with respect to the Gross Proceeds as set forth at Section 5.3(d)(i); and (iv) upon an Event of Default resulting in an acceleration of the Lessee's obligation to purchase the Assets under the Lease or Supervisory Agreement, the amounts then due and payable by the Lessee under the Lease on a recourse basis shall include all amounts necessary to pay in full the Aggregate Permitted Asset Balance, it being understood that any difference between the Asset Balance and the Aggregate Permitted Asset Balance may be recovered from the proceeds from a sale of the Assets and the other Collateral subject to the terms and conditions of the Operative Agreements, plus all other amounts then due from the Lessee to the Participants under the Operative Agreements, subject, however, (x) prior to the Applicable Base Term Commencement Date to the limitation on Lessee's recourse liability at Section 5.3 of the Supervisory Agreement with respect to any Uncompleted Unit or Uncompleted Facility and (y) any applicable limitation on Lessee's recourse liability to the Aggregate Permitted Asset Balance set forth in the Operative Agreements.

Section 5.3   Distribution.

(a)   Except as otherwise provided in Section 5.3(g), each payment of Basic Rent (and any payment of interest on overdue installments of Basic Rent) and during the Commitment Period each Advance for Participant Capitalized Costs received by the Administrative Agent shall be distributed by the Administrative Agent to the Participants, in accordance with, and for application to, the amount of Interest, Yield and Fees then due on the Loans, Certificate Amounts and the Commitments of the Participants as well as any overdue Interest or Yield due to each Lender or Certificate Holder (to the extent permitted by Applicable Laws).

(s)   Litigation. No litigation, arbitration or administrative proceeding against the Lessee is pending or, to the Lessee's knowledge, threatened, which, if determined adversely, questions the validity of or would materially and adversely affect the ability of the Lessee to perform any of its obligations under this Participation Agreement and under the other Operative Agreements.

(t)   ERISA. There have not been any "Reportable Events" which would adversely affect Lessee's ability to perform its obligations under the Operative Agreements.

(u)   Consents. No authorization, consent or approval from any Governmental Authority is required for the execution, delivery and performance by Lessee of this Participation Agreement or any other Operative Agreement to which Lessee is a party, except such authorizations, consents and approvals as have been obtained prior to the Document Closing Date and are in full force and effect as of the Document Closing Date.

(w)   True and Complete Disclosure. Subject to the last sentence of this paragraph (w), the information furnished by or on behalf of Lessee to the Administrative Agent, the Lessor, each Participant or counsel in connection with any of the Operative Agreements or any transaction contemplated thereby does not, when taken as a whole, contain any untrue statement of material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary to make the statements herein or therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading in any material respect. There is no fact known to Lessee that could reasonably be expected to have, individually or in the aggregate, a Material Adverse Effect that has not been disclosed herein, in the other Operative Agreements, or in a financial statement or other writing furnished to the Administrative Agent in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby. The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that any financial projections of the Guarantors, Lessee and/or their Subsidiaries provided by or on behalf of Lessee or the Guarantors to the Administrative Agent, the Lessor, and the Participants are forward-looking in nature, and although Lessee believes that the expectations and assumptions reflected in such financial projections are reasonable, they involve a number of risks and uncertainties and actual results may differ materially from the results set forth in such financial projections.

(x)   Compliance With Laws With Respect to the Equipment Groups and Facilities. The Lessee is not in violation of any law with respect to the Equipment Groups or Facilities or with respect to the conduct of its business relating to such Equipment Groups or Facilities or the Construction or Acquisition thereof, which violation would have a Material Adverse Effect, and each Unit and each Facility is in compliance in all material respects with all Applicable Laws. The Lessee has not received any notice of, or citation for, any violation of any Applicable Law in any material respect which violation would have a Material Adverse Effect, is not the subject of a Permitted Contest and has not been resolved, which notice or citation relates in any way to any Unit or any Facility. Assuming the representations and warranties of the Lessor are true and correct, the acquisition, ownership, leasing, installation, operation or use of any Unit or any Facility or any portion thereof by the Lessor or Lessee, in accordance with the terms of the Operative Agreements and applicable permits will not violate any law (other than banking or insurance laws applicable to Lessor), which violation would have a Material Adverse Effect.

(y)   Permitted Liens. None of the Permitted Liens will materially interfere with the intended use or possession of any Unit or any Facility or any part thereof or any other asset used in connection therewith or the intended use of or the exercise by the Lessor or the Administrative Agent of its rights under any Operative Agreement.

(z)   Assignment of Turbine Contract.

       (i)   Lessee has delivered to the Administrative Agent true and complete copies of the Existing Turbine Contract and the Seller Parent Guaranty dated September 29, 2000 issued by General Electric Company in favor of PPL Large Scale Distributed Generation Statutory Trust ("Assignor") guaranteeing the performance of GE under the Existing Turbine Contract (the "GE Guarantee") (the Existing Turbine Contract and the GE Guarantee are hereinafter referred to as the "Assigned Documents");

       (ii)   The Assigned Documents are in full force and effect and constitute the entire agreement between Assignor, GE and General Electric Company (the "GE Guarantor");

       (iii)   There have been no modifications, supplements, amendments or addenda to the Assigned Documents;

       (iv)   To Lessee's knowledge, no default or event has occurred which, with notice or lapse of time or both, if uncured, would constitute a default by Assignor, GE or General Electric Company under the Assigned Documents;

       (v)   All amounts due and payable by Assignor to GE under the Existing Turbine Contract have been paid in full as of the date each such amount was due;

       (vi)   All conditions under the Existing Turbine Contract with respect to (i) the assignment by Assignor to the Trust of its rights and obligations to the Units of Equipment designated under the Existing Turbine Contract as Units six (6) through seventeen (17) (the "Assigned Equipment") pursuant to the Assignment and Assumption Agreement and (ii) the collateral assignment of the Assigned Documents pursuant to the Collateral Assignment have been satisfied;

       (vii)   The Trust has succeeded to all of Assignor's right, title and interest in and to the Assigned Documents relating to the Assigned Equipment, free and clear of any Liens or other competing claims of any kind (other than Permitted Liens of the type described at clauses (a), (b) and (c) of the definition of Permitted Liens, or as otherwise contemplated by the Operative Agreements.

       (aa)   License to Test Power. There are sufficient funds allocated in each Facility Budget, pursuant to Section 2.4(c) of the Supervisory Agreement, to generate, transmit and test power as set forth therein.

Not later than 120 days after the Document Closing Date hereof Lessee shall have (i) caused (x) the Lessor, Administrative Agent, Lessee and each Certificate Holder to either obtain status as an "exempt wholesale generator" under PUHCA or receive a "No-Action letter" from the staff of the Securities and Exchange Commission confirming that such entity will not be considered a "public-utility company" under PUHCA, and (y) the FERC to issue a declaratory ruling that the Lessor, Administrative Agent and each Certificate Holder will not become subject to regulation as a "public utility" under the Federal Power Act by reason of entering into the Operative Agreements or consummation or performance of the transactions contemplated thereby, in each case prior to the commencement of sales of electricity from any Asset (including any Unit at an Equipment Site), and (ii) provided an officer's certificate that the foregoing requirements have been satisfied and an opinion of counsel in form and substance reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent with respect to the foregoing matters and that no other approvals are required under the Federal Power Act or PUHCA for the consummation or performance of the transactions contemplated under the Operative Agreements.

Lessee shall cause each sublessee, assign and operator to not take any action that would subject the Trust, Lessor, Administrative Agent or any Participant to regulation (1) as a "public utility", a "transmitting utility", or an "electric utility" within the meaning of the FPA, or (2) under State Utility Law. Lessee will not take any action, and Lessee will cause each sublessee, assign and operator not to take any action, that would subject Lessee and sublessee, assign and operator to regulation under State Utility Law, other than any such regulation that would not have a Material Adverse Affect under the Operative Agreements.

In the event of any Lessor Lien attributable to Lessor or Bank, in addition to complying with its obligations under this clause (ii), Trustee, in its trust capacity, or Bank, as applicable, will cause restitution to be made to the Trust Estate in the amount of any diminution of the value thereof as a result of such Lessor Lien.

(b)   Trust Agreement. Without prejudice to any right under the Trust Agreement of Trustee to resign, or the Certificate Holders' rights under the Trust Agreement to remove Trustee, each of the Certificate Holders and Trustee hereby agrees with Lessee (so long as no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing), the Lenders and Administrative Agent (i) not to terminate or revoke the trust created by the Trust Agreement, except as permitted in Section 6.1 of the Trust Agreement, prior to the later of the Expiration Date or the payment in full of the obligations under the Notes and Certificates, (ii) not to amend, supplement, terminate or revoke or otherwise modify any provision of the Trust Agreement prior to the Expiration Date in such a manner as to materially and adversely affect the rights of any such party, (iii) except as otherwise expressly authorized under the Operative Agreements, not to withdraw from the Trust Estate any funds other than amounts payable to it by Trustee as distributions of Basic Rent and Supplemental Rent without the prior written consent of each such party and (iv) to comply with all of the terms of the Trust Agreement applicable to it, the nonperformance of which could adversely affect such party.

(c)   Successor Trustee. Trustee or any successor may resign or be removed by the Participants as Trustee, a successor Trustee may be appointed, and a corporation may become Trustee under the Trust Agreement, only in accordance with the provisions of the Trust Agreement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Participation Agreement or the Trust Agreement, so long as no Event of Default shall be continuing, the appointment of a successor Trustee shall be subject to the consent of Lessee (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed).

(d)   Debt; Other Business. Trustee, on behalf of the Lessor, shall not contract for, create, incur or assume any debt, or enter into any business or other activity, other than pursuant to or under the Operative Agreements and, for the benefit of Lessee, Administrative Agent and the Lenders, agrees to be bound by Section 1.2(b) of the Trust Agreement.

(e)   Change of Principal Place of Business. Trustee shall give prompt notice to the Certificate Holders, Lessee and Administrative Agent, if Lessor's principal place of business or chief executive office, or the office where the records concerning the accounts or contract rights relating to the Overall Transaction are kept, shall cease to be located at the address set forth on Schedule III, or if it shall change its name or identity.

(f)   Loan Agreement. As between Lessor and Lessee, Lessor and each Participant hereby agree that, so long as the Lease is in effect, Lessor shall not consent to or permit any amendment of the terms and provisions of the Loan Agreement, any Security Instrument or any Note, whether or not any Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, if any such amendment or action would have the effect of increasing the obligations of Lessee or decreasing the rights of Lessee, in each case without the prior written consent of Lessee except that without such consent, Lessor may waive performance by Administrative Agent of obligations to Lessor, the non-performance of which does not adversely affect Lessee.

(g)   Acceptance of Provisions of Lease. The Participants, the Administrative Agent and Lessor hereby acknowledge and accept the provisions of Sections 15.2 and 20.1 of the Lease.

(h)   Depreciation. With respect to any taxable year or portion thereof, prior to the Expiration Date, neither the Lessor nor any Participant shall claim any federal or state or local tax attributes or benefits (including depreciation) relating to the Assets or otherwise claim ownership of the Equipment for federal, state or local tax purposes unless required to do so by an appropriate taxing authority or after a clearly applicable change in Applicable Laws or as a protective response to a proposed adjustment by a Governmental Authority; provided, however, that if an appropriate taxing authority shall require Lessor or any Participant to claim any such federal or state tax attributes or benefits or if it proposes to claim any such federal or state tax attributes or benefits as a protective response, such Person shall promptly notify Lessee thereof and shall permit Lessee to contest such requirement in a manner similar to the contest rights provided in, and subject to any applicable limitation to a contest contained in, Section 13.4(b).

(i)   Right of Setoff. Each of the Participants, the Trustee, in its individual capacity, and Administrative Agent, in its individual capacity, and Lessee covenants as to itself, not jointly with any other Person, that it shall not exercise, or attempt to exercise, any right of setoff, banker's lien, or the like, against any deposit account or property of any Guarantor, Lessee, or any of its Affiliates held or maintained by such Person without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent, which, in the case of the Participants or the Lessor or Administrative Agent acting on their behalf, Administrative Agent shall base its decision to grant such consent solely upon a determination, upon the advice of its counsel, that such exercise shall not adversely affect the right of any other Participant to resort to any other right or remedy as a result of the application of state law.

(j)   Insolvency Proceedings. Each of the Participants, the Trustee, in its individual capacity, and Administrative Agent, in its individual capacity, and Lessee covenants as to itself, that it will not (i) commence any action, proceeding or other case with respect to the Lessor under any existing or future law of any jurisdiction, domestic or foreign, relating to bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, arrangement, winding up, liquidation, dissolution, composition or other relief with respect to indebtedness, (ii) seek appointment of a receiver, trustee, custodian or other similar official with respect to the Lessor and for all or any substantial benefit of the creditors of the Lessor, or (iii) take any action in furtherance of, or indicating its consent to, approval of, or acquiescence in, any of the acts set forth in this clause (j), except in each case, as expressly permitted pursuant to the Loan Agreement upon the occurrence of a Loan Event of Default.

The Administrative Agent hereby agrees that, upon a sale of the Assets pursuant to Section 18 or Section 20.1 of the Lease and payment of all amounts due and owing from the Lessee under the Operative Agreements and the application of such amount to the Loans and Certificate Amounts as provided for at Section 6.2 of the Loan Agreement or repayment in full of all Loans and Certificate Amounts and all other amounts due and owing from Lessee under the Operative Agreements to Administrative Agent and the Participants, the Administrative Agent shall execute and deliver to the Lessee a release of any Security Instrument, and releases of all other Liens created by the Operative Agreements, and termination statements for any financing statements relating to the Assets or any of the Collateral which are then of record naming the Administrative Agent as secured party or assignee thereof.

(l)   Release of Liens. Administrative Agent hereby agrees with Lessee (so long as no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing), and the Lenders, except as otherwise expressly authorized or otherwise permitted under the Operative Agreements, not to release the Lien of any of the Security Instruments on the Collateral.

Section 10.2   Project Collateral Arrangements.

(a)   If as a condition to its entering into a Major Project Agreement (the "Applicable Project Agreement"), a General Contractor (the "Applicable Contractor") requires that all or part of the Termination Payments payable by Lessor and Supervisory Agent (the "Applicable Termination Payment Amounts") be collateralized, Lessor and Administrative Agent shall, upon request by Lessee, cause to be established a Project Collateral Account in which Lessor will fund with proceeds from Advances deposits into such account which shall not exceed at any time 10.1% of the Applicable Termination Payment Amounts due from time to time under the Applicable Project Agreement. Prior to depositing funds into a Project Collateral Account, Lessor, the Applicable Contractor and Administrative Agent shall execute and deliver a Project Collateral Account Agreement, which agreement shall be consented to and acknowledged by Lessee. Such Project Collateral Account Agreement shall permit Administrative Agent to direct amounts, other than Retained Amounts (as defined below) to be paid from the Project Collateral Account to make payments due and payable from time to time under the Applicable Project Agreement and to make payments under the Applicable Project Agreement to cure any defaults or breaches thereunder. For purposes of this Section 10.2(a), "Retained Amounts" means a portion of the funds to be deposited into the Project Collateral Account in an amount reasonably acceptable to Administrative Agent and Lessee which (i) pursuant to the terms of the Applicable Project Agreement, is required to be held throughout the term of such Project Agreement to secure Lessor's payment obligations under such Project Agreement, (ii) is provided for in the applicable Facility Budget and (iii) if not drawn upon, is required to be released to Lessor not later than Substantial Completion of the applicable Facility. Except for Excepted Interconnect Agreements relating to an Uncompleted Facility or a Proposed Site which in the aggregate represent not more than eight percent (8%) of the Asset Costs budgeted for such Uncompleted Facility or Proposed Site, each such Project Collateral Account Agreement also shall provide that the Applicable Contractor's claims against Lessor or Lessee shall be limited to the Project Collateral Account and the Project Agreement Indemnity or Project Letter of Credit described below.

(b)   All amounts in the Project Collateral Account shall be invested only in Permitted Investments. If an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, then until all obligations are paid in full, the Administrative Agent may apply funds in a Project Collateral Account solely to the Obligations; provided, however, that while the applicable Project Agreement remains in effect, amounts on deposit in the Project Collateral Account may only be disbursed pursuant to the provisions of the applicable Project Collateral Account Agreement. It is agreed that, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Project Collateral Account Agreement, if any funds on deposit in the Project Collateral Account become available as a result of a reduction in the amount required to be on deposit in such Project Collateral Account pursuant to the Project Collateral Account Agreement, then Lessee shall cause such amounts to be applied to the next payment due under the applicable Project Agreement and Lessee's Advance Request for funds for payment of amounts due under such Applicable Project Agreement will reflect such application.

(c)   Concurrent with and as a condition precedent to Lessor's obligation to establish a Project Collateral Account and make deposits therein, Lessee shall execute and deliver to Administrative Agent, with executed copies for Lessor and the Applicable Contractor, a Project Agreement Indemnity, or in lieu of a Project Agreement Indemnity, Lessee may deliver to Lessor a Project Letter of Credit, with copies thereof to Administrative Agent and the Applicable Contractor and which shall be made payable to Lessor or its assignees named under a General Contractor Assignment. Lessee shall be solely liable for any reimbursement obligations under any Project Letter of Credit; provided, however, any fees payable to the issuer of such letter of credit may be funded with an Advance. Following Lessee's execution and delivery of a Project Agreement Indemnity or Project Letter of Credit, Lessor shall execute and deliver to the Applicable Contractor, with executed copies for Administrative Agent and Lessee, a General Contractor Assignment.

(d)   Lessor's and Administrative Agent's obligations to enter into any agreement described in this Section 10.2 or to make deposits as provided for herein shall be conditioned upon there being no Event of Default or Uninsured Loss existing, Lessee's satisfaction of Section 2.4 of the Supervisory Agreement, and Lessee demonstrating to the reasonable satisfaction of Administrative Agent that sufficient funds have been set aside and remain available in the applicable Facility Budget to fund the full amount of deposits necessary to pay the Applicable Termination Payment Amounts under each Applicable Project Agreement and all fees payable to the Project Letter of Credit issuers. Lessee shall cause to be executed, delivered and filed all financing statements and other filings, give such notices and deliver such legal opinions, as reasonably requested by Administrative Agent, to protect the parties' interests in the Project Collateral Accounts and the Project Collateral Agreements.

If at any time any class of long-term senior unsecured debt issued by any Lender (a "Downgraded Lender") is rated BBB or lower by S&P or Baa2 or lower by Moody's (a "Downgrade Event"), then the Lessee may, subject to Section 12.1, at its sole cost and expense and effort, upon notice to such Downgraded Lender, the Administrative Agent and the Lessor, require such Downgraded Lender to assign and delegate, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in Section 12), all its interests, rights and obligations under this Participation Agreement and the other Operative Agreements to one or more Eligible Assignees that shall assume such obligations; provided that (i) the Lessee shall have received the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, and (ii) such Downgraded Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to the Loan Balance of its Notes, accrued Interest thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts payable to such Downgraded Lender hereunder and under the other Operative Agreements from such Assignee(s) (to the extent of such outstanding Loan Balance and accrued Interest and fees) or, the Lessee (in the case of all other amounts). A Downgraded Lender shall not be required to make any such assignment and delegation if, prior thereto, the circumstances entitling the Lessee to require such assignment and delegation cease to apply.

(d)   the Administrative Agent and the Lessor hereby agree to reasonably cooperate with the Lessee, at Lessee's sole cost and expense (provided that, with respect to any such cost or expense allocable to an Uncompleted Unit or Uncompleted Facility pursuant to Section 3.2(b) of this Participation Agreement, Lessee shall pay such amounts from the proceeds of Advances pursuant to the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Participation Agreement relating to Advances), in Lessee's efforts to arrange one or more Replacement Participants as contemplated by this Section 11.1.

Section 11.2   Release of PPL Corporation Guarantee. On such date as PPL Supply has received confirmation of the Required Credit Rating from S&P and Moody's of at least (1) BBB and Baa3, respectively, or (2) BBB- and Baa2, respectively, and so long as no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, upon the request of PPL Corporation to Administrative Agent and upon satisfaction of each of the conditions set forth below, PPL Corporation shall be released and discharged from its obligations under its Guarantee and its Guarantee shall be terminated. The release of PPL Corporation under its Guarantee shall be subject to the satisfaction of the following conditions: (i) receipt by Administrative Agent of a Responsible Officer's Certificate from each Guarantor, certifying that, as of the date of such certification, PPL Supply has achieved the Required Credit Rating, (ii) receipt by Administrative Agent of evidence reasonably required by Administrative Agent to confirm the existence of such Required Credit Rating, (iii) receipt by Administrative Agent and each Participant of a document in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Administrative Agent whereby PPL Supply acknowledges the release of PPL Corporation from and the termination of its Guarantee and a reaffirmation by PPL Supply of its obligations under its Guarantee, and (iv) the receipt by Administrative Agent and each Participant of an opinion of counsel of PPL Supply in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Administrative Agent, with respect to the due execution, authorization and enforceability of the acknowledgment and reaffirmation. Promptly upon the request of the Guarantor following such release, the Administrative Agent shall execute and deliver any releases or other instruments to evidence or better confirm the release, discharge and termination contemplated in this Section 11.2. Each Participant and Lessor, by entering into this Participation Agreement, authorizes Administrative Agent to undertake their respective obligations set forth in this Section 11.2, and consents to the release of PPL Corporation from, and the termination of, the PPL Corporation Guarantee.

(b)   Notwithstanding the foregoing Section 13.1(a), to the extent any Claim under Section 13.1(a) relates to any act or omission relating to an Uncompleted Unit or an Uncompleted Facility, then prior to the Applicable Base Term Commencement Date with respect to such Uncompleted Facility or Uncompleted Unit, (i) the Lessee shall only be obligated to indemnify Lessor pursuant to Section 13.1(a) for such Claims, provided that such Claims shall include any Claim for which Lessor has an obligation to indemnify any Person pursuant to clause (ii) of this Section 13.1(b), and; provided further, that, Lessee's obligations under Section 13.1(a) during such period shall exclude Claims resulting solely from a Nonrelated Project Claim, and (ii) Lessor shall indemnify and keep harmless each Participant Indemnitee, Qualified Project Indemnitee or Tax Indemnitee from such Claims; provided, however, that the indemnification given by Lessor to any Qualified Project Indemnitee shall be limited to only those Claims for which Lessor has an obligation to provide indemnification to such Qualified Project Indemnitee pursuant to the terms of the applicable Project Agreement.

(c)   Lessor Indemnity. Lessor's obligation to indemnify and hold harmless any Participant Indemnitee or, in the case of any Project Agreement, Qualified Project Indemnitee under Section 13.1(b)(ii) or Tax Indemnitee under Section 13.4(a):

(A)   is not an individual or personal obligation of Lessor or Trustee, and nothing herein shall be construed as creating any liability on Lessor or Trustee, individually or personally, to pay, indemnify or hold harmless any Participant Indemnitee under this Article XIII;

(B)   is not an obligation binding on Lessor or claim on the Trust Estate except to the extent of any payment received from Lessee or paid by either Guarantor on Lessee's behalf, pursuant to Section 13.1(b)(i) or Section 13.4(a); and

(C)   shall be paid and discharged solely and exclusively from amounts paid by Lessee or paid by either Guarantor on Lessee's behalf, received by Lessor pursuant to Section 13.1(b)(i) or Section 13.4(a), and it is expressly agreed by each Participant Indemnitee, Qualified Project Indemnitee and Tax Indemnitee that the sole recourse of each such Person for payment or discharge of the indemnification obligations created under Section 13.1(b)(ii) or Section 13.4(a)(ii) shall be to such amounts paid by Lessee pursuant to Section 13.1(b)(i) and Section 13.4(a)(i); and

(D)   is the sole and exclusive right of each Participant Indemnitee, Qualified Project Indemnitee and Tax Indemnitee against Lessor or Trustee or the Trust Estate, and any right to proceed against Lessor or Trustee individually or otherwise or against the Trust Estate under common law, federal or state securities laws or otherwise for indemnification or contribution in connection with the matters covered by this Section 13.1(b) or Section 13.4(b) is hereby expressly waived by each Participant Indemnitee, Qualified Project Indemnitee and Tax Indemnitee (other than claims that may be made against Lessor, individually or personally, for fraud, gross negligence or willful misconduct).

Except as otherwise set forth in this Section 13.1(c), nothing in this Article XIII is intended as or shall be construed as a limitation on the right of any Indemnitee or Qualified Project Indemnitee to make indemnification, contribution or other claims of any kind against Lessee, to the extent that such claims otherwise may be made, with respect to any matter, including indemnification for Claims of the type referred to in Section 13.1(a).

To the extent that any payments made pursuant to Section 13.1(b)(ii) or Section 13.4(a) are subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside or required to be repaid by Lessor to a trustee, debtor in possession, receiver or other Person under any Bankruptcy Law, common law or equitable cause, then to such extent, the Indemnitee or Qualified Project Indemnitee who received any such payments from Lessor (or any portion thereof) shall repay any such amounts to Lessor, or as may otherwise be directed by a court of competent jurisdiction.

The indemnification obligations of Lessor under Section 13.1(b)(ii) and 13.4(a)(ii)shall survive and be reinstated to the same extent, for the same period and in the same manner as the indemnification obligations of Lessee.

The right of any Participant Indemnitee, Qualified Project Indemnitee or Tax Indemnitee to seek indemnification from Lessor under Section 13.1(b)(ii) or 13.4(b) is subject to and conditioned upon compliance by any such Indemnitee with the notice, cooperation, appointment of counsel, contest rights and other provisions in Section 13.3 and 13.4(b), unless waived by Lessee in writing, except that any reference in such Sections to Lessee shall be deemed to be a reference to Lessor.

Without limiting the foregoing, Lessor hereby, subject to the terms of this Section 13.1(c), grants to each Participant Indemnitee, each Tax Indemnitee and, to the extent provided for in the applicable Project Agreement or an agreement to be entered into pursuant to the last sentence of this paragraph, each Qualified Project Indemnitee a nonexclusive assignment of the right to enforce Lessor's indemnification rights under Sections 13.1(b)(i) and 13.4(a) with respect to Claims or Impositions of such Participant Indemnitees for which Lessor is indemnified under such Sections 13.1(b)(i) and 13.4(a). Lessee acknowledges and agrees that Lessor, (i) has indemnified the Participant Indemnitees and Tax Indemnitees under Sections 13.1(b)(ii) and 13.4(a), and (ii) has granted to such Participant Indemnitees a nonexclusive assignment of the right to enforce Lessor's indemnification rights under such Sections. Any Claim for indemnification to be made by any Participant Indemnitee or Tax Indemnitee by its exercise of the above described nonexclusive assignment will be brought on behalf of each Participant Indemnitee or Tax Indemnitee to be so indemnified by Administrative Agent following a demand by any such Participant Indemnitee or Tax Indemnitee, and solely for purposes of Section 13.3 and 13.4(b), Administrative Agent shall be deemed to be the Indemnitee or Tax Indemnitee as applicable. The agreements, acknowledgements and waivers required of each Qualified Project Indemnitee in this Section 13.1(c) shall be set forth in the writing to be executed by such Qualified Project Indemnitee as required in the definition of "Qualified Project Indemnitee."

Section 13.2   Nonconformance. If Lessee elects the Sale Option, an Event of Default occurs, or Lessee returns any Facility or Equipment Group to Lessor or Administrative Agent and after paying to Lessor, for the benefit of Participants, any amounts then due under the Operative Agreements with respect to such Equipment Group or Facility (including the Lease Supplement RVG Amount or the Lease Supplement Permitted Balance, as applicable) and the Lease Supplement Balance for any Facility or Equipment Group shall not have been reduced to zero, then Lessee shall promptly pay on the earlier of the Expiration Date or the date which is thirty (30) days following the delivery of the appraisal described below, an amount for each such Facility or Unit (the "Nonconformance Amount") not to exceed the applicable shortfall which such appraisal indicates is the result of any of the following events, circumstances, or conditions, whether or not permitted under the Lease: (i) the failure to maintain such Facility or Equipment Group as required by the Lease and the other Operative Agreements, in at least as good a condition as it was at the time of Substantial Completion for any Facility or the Unit Completion Date for a Unit, ordinary wear and tear excepted; (ii) the carrying out of or the failure to undertake any modifications, improvements, changes or Modifications to such Facility or Equipment Group whether or not permitted pursuant to the Operative Agreements or any change or modification to the Facility Plans and Specifications following the delivery of such Facility Plans and Specifications thereof pursuant to Article VI; (iii) any Modification to such Unit or Units in such Equipment Group following the Document Closing Date or any Modification to or restoration or rebuilding of such Facility or Equipment Group following the Facility Completion Date or Shipment Date, as applicable, whether or not permitted pursuant to the Operative Agreements; (iv) the existence of any environmental condition at or affecting such Facility or any Unit in the Equipment Group whether or not such condition existed on the Initial Advance Date; (v) any defect, exception, easement, restriction or other encumbrance on or title or ground lease interest to such Facility or any Unit in the Equipment Group, whether or not created or existing on the Initial Advance Date other than Permitted Liens of the type discussed in clauses (a) (other than such Liens relating to the rights and interests of Lessee), (b), (c) or (g) of the definition of Permitted Liens; (vi) the dependence of such Facility on any improvement or facility not fully located on a Site (other than government-provided utilities existing and benefiting such Facility as of the date hereof, the benefits of which are lost for reasons other than the fault of Lessee and which could not have been retained through the exercise by Lessee of commercially reasonable efforts to keep such utilities in place) and other than any improvement or facility which (x) if owned by Lessee, all of Lessee's rights and interest in and relating to such improvements or facilities are transferred to the purchaser under the Sale Option for such Facility or Equipment Group for the Gross Proceeds paid with respect thereto or if such Facility or any Unit in such Equipment Group is to be returned to Lessor that all such rights and interests are transferred without consideration to Administrative Agent or (y) if owed by a third party, the purchaser at such Sale Option or Administrative Agent, if such Facility or any Unit in such Equipment Group returned, is granted the indefeasible, right and interest to use such improvement, Units or facility in the same manner and scope for the same duration, and for such consideration on terms no less favorable, as was applicable to Lessee or its affiliates prior to such purchase or return); (vii) the failure by Lessee to comply with any Return Conditions or to cause all Facility Equipment to be in a condition to operate at Commercial Capacity at the date of any such appraisal hereunder; or (viii) the use of the Assets or any portion or part thereof by Lessee or any permitted sublessee, assign, operator or any PPL Group Member for any purpose or in any manner that adversely affected the Fair Market Value, utility, remaining useful life or residual value of any such Assets or portion or part thereof, other than ordinary wear and tear excepted. For purposes of making the determination provided for in this Section 13.2, Lessor shall cause to be delivered to Administrative Agent and Lessee within twenty (20) days of the occurrence of the event described in the first sentence of this Section 13.2 but in any event not less than 10 Business Days prior to the consummation of a sale of each Facility and Equipment Group, at Lessee's sole cost and expense, a report from an appraiser selected by the Required Participants and reasonably approved by Lessee, in form and substance satisfactory to the Required Participants and using approved methods satisfactory to the Required Participants, concerning the extent to which the fact that the actual Fair Market Value of each such Facility or Equipment Group as of the date of determination is less than the Fair Market Value anticipated for such date in the Initial Appraisal or Facility Appraisal, as applicable, originally delivered pursuant to Article VI of this Participation Agreement is due to any of the factors enumerated in the preceding sentence hereof. Any Nonconformance Amounts payable by Lessee shall be distributed in accordance with Section 5.3(d)(i).

Section 13.3   Proceedings in Respect of Claims. With respect to any amount that the Lessee is requested by an Indemnitee to pay by reason of Section 13.1, such Indemnitee shall, if so requested by the Lessee and prior to any payment, submit such additional information to the Lessee as Lessee may reasonably request and which is in the possession of such Indemnitee to substantiate properly the requested payment.

In case any action, suit or proceeding shall be brought against any Indemnitee, such Indemnitee shall promptly notify the Lessee of the commencement thereof provided that failure to notify Lessee shall not alter such Indemnitee's rights under this Section 13.3, except to the extent such failure increases the amounts payable by Lessee or precludes or materially impairs Lessee's ability to conduct a defense, and the Lessee shall be entitled, at its expense, to participate in, and, to the extent that the Lessee desires to, assume and control the defense thereof through its own counsel, which shall be subject to the reasonable approval of the Required Participants, on behalf of the Indemnitee; provided, however, that the Lessee shall have acknowledged in writing its obligation to fully indemnify such Indemnitee in respect of such action, suit or proceeding and shall provide such Indemnitee with all information with respect to such action, suit or proceeding as such Indemnitee shall reasonably request. Lessee must indicate its election to assume such defense by written notice to the Indemnitee within 90 days following receipt of Indemnitee's notice of the Claim, or in the case of a third party claim which requires a shorter time for response then within such shorter period as specified in the Indemnitee's notice of Claim, provided that such Indemnitee has given Lessee notice thereof. Lessee shall not be entitled to assume and control the defense of any such action, suit or proceeding if and to the extent that, (A) in the reasonable opinion of such Indemnitee after consultation with its counsel, (x) such action, suit or proceeding involves any risk of imposition of criminal liability on such Indemnitee or will involve a material risk of the sale, forfeiture or loss of, or the creation of any Lien (other than a Permitted Lien) on any Asset unless, in the case of civil liability, the Lessee shall have posted a bond or other security reasonably satisfactory to the relevant Indemnitees in respect to such risk or (y) the control of such action, suit or proceeding would involve an actual or potential conflict of interest, (B) such proceeding involves Claims not fully indemnified by the Lessee which the Lessee and the Indemnitee have been unable to sever from the indemnified Claim(s), provided that the Indemnitee has taken reasonable steps to sever such Claim(s), or (C) an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing. The Indemnitee may participate in a reasonable manner at its own expense and with its own counsel in any proceeding conducted by the Lessee in accordance with the foregoing. The Lessee shall not enter into any settlement or other compromise with respect to any Claim which is entitled to be indemnified under Section 13.1, without the prior written consent of the Indemnitee, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed in the case of a money settlement not involving an admission of liability of such Indemnitee, unless the Indemnitee is fully released from such Claim and such Claim does not involve criminal liability of such Indemnitee.

The party controlling the defense shall consult in good faith with the other party and its counsel with respect to the defense and shall keep the non-controlling party reasonably informed as to the progress of the defense. Each Indemnitee shall supply the Lessee with such information and documents reasonably requested by the Lessee as are necessary or advisable for the Lessee to participate in any action, suit or proceeding to the extent permitted by Section 13.1, as applicable, and Lessee shall reimburse the Indemnitee for the reasonable out-of-pocket expenses of supplying such information and documents. Except during the occurrence of an Event of Default where Lessee and Guarantors shall have failed to provide indemnity and, if requested by an Indemnitee, collateral security, both in form, substance and in such amounts reasonably satisfactory to each Indemnitee, no Indemnitee shall enter into any settlement or other compromise with respect to any Claim which is entitled to be indemnified under Section 13.1, without the prior written consent of the Lessee, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, unless such Indemnitee waives its right to be indemnified under Section 13.1, with respect to such Claim, does not admit any criminal liability or civil liability on behalf of the Lessee or the Guarantors in connection with such Claim, and uses reasonable efforts to advise the Lessee on the status of proceedings from time to time during the pendency of such Claim.

Upon payment in full of any Claim by the Lessee or the Guarantors pursuant to Section 13.1, to or on behalf of an Indemnitee, the Lessee, without any further action, shall be subrogated to any and all claims that such Indemnitee may have relating thereto (other than claims in respect of insurance policies maintained by such Indemnitee at its own expense), and such Indemnitee shall execute such instruments of assignment and conveyance, evidence of claims and payment and such other documents, instruments and agreements as may be necessary to preserve any such claims and otherwise cooperate with the Lessee and give such further assurances as are necessary or advisable to enable the Lessee vigorously to pursue such claims.

Any amount payable to an Indemnitee pursuant to Section 13.1 shall be paid to such Indemnitee promptly upon receipt of a written demand therefor from such Indemnitee, accompanied by a written statement describing in reasonable detail the basis for such indemnity and the computation of the amount so payable.

Section 13.4   General Tax Indemnity.

(a)   Indemnification. Subject to the application of the immediately following sentence of this Section 13.4(a) and without limitation on any other rights of any Tax Indemnitee to indemnification under this Article XIII, the Lessee shall pay and assume liability for, and does hereby agree to indemnify, protect and defend the Assets and each Tax Indemnitee, and hold the Assets and each Tax Indemnitee harmless against, all Impositions. Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent any such Impositions relate to any act or omission relating to an Uncompleted Unit or an Uncompleted Facility which arises prior to the Applicable Base Term Commencement Date for such Uncompleted Facility or Uncompleted Unit, (i) the Lessee shall only be obligated to indemnify Lessor for such Impositions, provided that such Impositions for which Lessee has an obligation to indemnify shall include any Imposition for which Lessor has an obligation to indemnify any Tax Indemnitee pursuant to clause (ii) hereof, and (ii) Lessor shall indemnify and keep harmless each Tax Indemnitee from such Impositions on an After Tax Basis.

(b)   Contests. If any claim shall be made against any Tax Indemnitee or if any proceeding shall be commenced against any Tax Indemnitee (including a written notice of such proceeding) for any Imposition as to which the Lessee may have an indemnity obligation pursuant to this Section 13.4, or if any Tax Indemnitee shall determine that any Imposition for which the Lessee may have an indemnity obligation pursuant to this Section 13.4 may be payable, such Tax Indemnitee shall promptly (and in any event, within 15 days) notify the Lessee in writing (provided that failure to so notify the Lessee within 15 days shall not alter such Tax Indemnitee's rights under this Section 13.4, except to the extent such failure effectively precludes the ability to conduct a contest of any indemnified Taxes) and shall not take any action with respect to such claim, proceeding or Imposition without the written consent of the Lessee (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or unreasonably delayed) for 30 days after the receipt of such notice by the Lessee; provided, however, that in the case of any such claim or proceeding, if such Tax Indemnitee shall be required by law or regulation to take action prior to the end of such 30-day period, such Tax Indemnitee shall in such notice to the Lessee, so inform the Lessee, and such Tax Indemnitee shall not take any action with respect to such claim, proceeding or Imposition without the consent of the Lessee (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or unreasonably delayed) for 10 days after the receipt of such notice by the Lessee, unless the Tax Indemnitee shall be required by law or regulation to take action prior to the end of such 10-day period.

The Lessee shall be entitled for a period of 30 days from receipt of such notice from the Tax Indemnitee (or such shorter period as the Tax Indemnitee has notified the Lessee is required by law or regulation for the Tax Indemnitee to commence such contest), to request in writing that such Tax Indemnitee contest such Impositions, at the Lessee's expense. If (x) such contest can be pursued in the name of the Lessee and independently from any other proceeding involving a Tax liability of such Tax Indemnitee for which the Lessee has not agreed to indemnify such Tax Indemnitee, (y) such contest must be pursued in the name of the Tax Indemnitee, but can be pursued independently from any other proceeding involving a Tax liability of such Tax Indemnitee for which the Lessee has not agreed to indemnify such Tax Indemnitee or (z) the Tax Indemnitee so requests, then the Lessee shall be permitted to control the contest of such claim, provided that in the case of a contest described in any of clause (x), (y) or (z) if the Tax Indemnitee determines in good faith that such contest by the Lessee is reasonably likely to have a material adverse impact on the business or operations of the Tax Indemnitee and provides a written explanation to the Lessee of such determination, the Tax Indemnitee may elect to control or reassert control of the contest, and provided, further, that in determining the application of clauses (x) and (y) of this sentence, each Tax Indemnitee shall take any and all reasonable steps to segregate claims for any Impositions for which the Lessee indemnifies hereunder from Taxes for which the Lessee is not obligated to indemnify hereunder, so that the Lessee can control the contest of the former. In all other claims requested to be contested by the Lessee, the Tax Indemnitee shall control the contest of such claim, acting through counsel reasonably acceptable to the Lessee. In no event shall the Lessee be permitted to contest (or the Tax Indemnitee required to contest) any claim, (A) if such Tax Indemnitee provides the Lessee with a legal opinion of independent counsel that such action, suit or proceeding involves a risk of imposition of criminal liability or will involve a material risk of the sale, forfeiture or loss of, or the creation of any Lien (other than a Permitted Lien) on any Asset or any part of any thereof unless the Lessee shall have posted and maintained a bond or other security reasonably satisfactory to the relevant Tax Indemnitee in respect to such risk, (B) if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, unless the Lessee shall have posted and maintained a bond or other security reasonably satisfactory to the relevant Tax Indemnitee in respect of the Impositions subject to such claim and any and all expenses for which the Lessee is responsible hereunder reasonably foreseeable in connection with the contest of such claim, (C) unless the Lessee shall have provided the Tax Indemnitee with a written acknowledgement of liability if the contest shall prove unsuccessful (provided, however, that such acknowledgement shall not be binding if the contest is finally resolved on a basis from which it can be established that the Lessee would not have been liable to the Tax Indemnitee for an indemnity in the absence of such acknowledgment), (D) unless the Lessee shall have agreed to pay and shall pay (provided, that prior to the Applicable Base Term Commencement Date for such Facility or Equipment Group and pursuant to the terms and conditions in this Participation Agreement relating to Advances, Lessee shall request an Advance the proceeds of which shall be used to pay) to such Tax Indemnitee on demand all reasonable out-of-pocket costs, losses and expenses that such Tax Indemnitee may incur in connection with contesting such Imposition, including all reasonable legal, accounting and investigatory fees and disbursements as well as the Impositions which are the subject of such claim to the extent the contest is unsuccessful, or (E) if such contest shall involve the payment of the Impositions prior to the contest, unless the Lessee shall provide to the Tax Indemnitee an interest-free advance in an amount equal to the Imposition that the Indemnitee is required to pay (with no additional net after-tax costs (including Taxes) to such Tax Indemnitee). In addition, for Tax Indemnitee controlled contests, no contest shall be required: (A) unless the amount of the potential indemnity (taking into account all similar or logically related claims that have been or could be raised in any audit involving such Tax Indemnitee for which the Lessee may be liable to pay an indemnity under this Section 13.4(b)) exceeds $25,000 and (B) unless, if requested by the Tax Indemnitee, the Lessee shall have provided to the Tax Indemnitee an opinion of counsel selected by the Lessee (which may be in-house counsel, except, in the case of income taxes indemnified hereunder, which opinion shall be that of independent tax counsel selected by the Tax Indemnitee and reasonably acceptable to the Lessee) that a reasonable basis exists to contest such claim. In no event shall a Tax Indemnitee be required to appeal an adverse judicial determination to the United States Supreme Court.

The party conducting the contest shall consult in good faith with the other party and its counsel with respect to the contest of such claim for Impositions (or claim for refund) but the decisions regarding what actions to be taken shall be made by the controlling party in its sole judgment, provided, however, that if the Tax Indemnitee is the controlling party and the Lessee recommends the acceptance of a settlement offer made by the relevant Governmental Authority and such Tax Indemnitee rejects such settlement offer then the amount for which the Lessee will be required to indemnify such Tax Indemnitee with respect to the Impositions subject to such offer shall not exceed the amount which it would have owed if such settlement offer had been accepted. In addition, the controlling party shall keep the noncontrolling party reasonably informed as to the progress of the contest, and shall provide the noncontrolling party with a copy of (or appropriate excerpts from) any reports or claims issued by the relevant auditing agents or taxing authority to the controlling party thereof, in connection with such claim or the contest thereof.

Each Tax Indemnitee shall supply the Lessee with such information and documents reasonably requested by the Lessee as are necessary or advisable for the Lessee to participate in any action, suit or proceeding to the extent permitted by this Section 13.4(b), and the Lessee shall promptly reimburse such Indemnitee for the reasonable out-of-pocket expenses of supplying such information and documents. Except during the occurrence of an Event of Default where Lessee and the Guarantors shall have failed to provide indemnity and, if requested by an Indemnitee, collateral security, both in form, substance and in such amounts reasonably satisfactory to each Indemnitee, no Tax Indemnitee shall enter into any settlement or other compromise or fail to appeal an adverse ruling with respect to any claim which is entitled to be indemnified under this Section 13.4 (and with respect to which contest is required under this Section 13.4(b)) without the prior written consent of the Lessee, unless such Tax Indemnitee waives its right to be indemnified under this Section 13.4 with respect to such claim.

Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, a Tax Indemnitee will not be required to contest (and the Lessee shall not be permitted to contest) a claim with respect to any Imposition if (i) such Tax Indemnitee shall waive its right to indemnification under this Section 13.4 with respect to such claim (and any claim with respect to such year or any other taxable year, the contest of which is materially adversely affected as a result of such waiver) or (ii) such Imposition is the sole result of a claim of a continuing and consistent nature, which claim has previously been resolved against the relevant Tax Indemnitee (unless a change in law or facts has occurred since such prior adverse resolution and Lessee provides an opinion of independent tax counsel to the effect that it is more likely than not that such change in law or facts will result in a favorable resolution of the claim at issue).

(c)   Payments. (i)   To, or for the Account of, a Tax Indemnitee. Any Imposition indemnifiable under this Section 13.4 shall be paid directly when due to the applicable taxing authority if direct payment is practicable and permitted. If direct payment to the applicable taxing authority is not permitted or is otherwise not made, any amount payable to a Tax Indemnitee pursuant to Section 13.4 shall be paid within thirty (30) days after receipt of a written demand therefor from such Tax Indemnitee, accompanied by a written statement describing in reasonable detail the amount so payable, but not before two Business Days prior to the date that the relevant Impositions are due. Any payments made pursuant to this Section 13.4 shall be made directly to the Tax Indemnitee entitled thereto in immediately available funds at such bank or to such account as specified by the Tax Indemnitee in written directions to the Lessee, or, if no such direction shall have been given, by check of the Lessee payable to the order of the Tax Indemnitee by certified mail, postage prepaid at its address as set forth in this Participation Agreement. Upon the request of any Tax Indemnitee with respect to an Imposition that the Lessee is required to pay, the Lessee shall furnish to such Tax Indemnitee the original or a certified copy of a receipt for the Lessee's payment of such Imposition or such other evidence of payment as is reasonably acceptable to such Tax Indemnitee. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Lessee shall not be required to make any indemnity payments with respect to an Imposition that is being contested prior to the conclusion of the contest, subject to clauses (D) and (E) of Section 13.4(b).

(ii)   To the Lessee. (x) If any Tax Indemnitee actually shall realize a Tax benefit (whether by way of deduction, credit, allocation or apportionment or otherwise) with respect to a Tax not indemnifiable hereunder which would not have been realized but for any Impositions with respect to which the Lessee has reimbursed or indemnified such Tax Indemnitee pursuant to the Operative Agreements, which benefit was not previously taken into account in determining the amount of the Lessee's payment to such Tax Indemnitee, such Tax Indemnitee shall pay to the Lessee (1) an amount equal to the amount of such Tax benefit, increased by (2) the Tax savings realized by such Tax Indemnitee as a result of its payment of the amount specified in clauses (1) and (2) (and net of any additional Taxes actually borne by such Tax Indemnitee as a result of such payment), with such Tax savings being calculated utilizing the same tax rate assumptions as specified in the definition of "After Tax Basis" (with the amount determined under (2) hereinafter referred to as the amount necessary in order to make a payment on a "Grossed-Up Basis"); provided, however, that as long as an Event of Default is continuing any such amounts may be applied against any amounts due and owing by Lessee under the Lease; provided further, however, that no Tax Indemnitee shall be required to pay to the Lessee any Tax benefit to the extent such payment would be greater than the amount of such Impositions in respect of which the reimbursement or indemnification was paid by the Lessee, reduced by all prior payments by such Tax Indemnitee under this Section 13.4(c)(ii)(x) in respect of such amount; any payment to the Lessee which is so limited shall, to the extent of such unpaid excess, be carried over and shall be available to offset any future obligations of the Lessee under this Section 13.4. If such repaid Tax benefit is thereafter lost, the additional Tax payable shall be treated as a Tax indemnifiable hereunder without regard to the exclusions set forth in clauses (i) through (x) of the definition of Impositions.

(y)   Upon receipt by a Tax Indemnitee of a refund or credit of all or part of any Impositions paid or indemnified against by the Lessee, which refund or credit was not previously taken into account in determining the amount of the Lessee's payment to such Tax Indemnitee, such Tax Indemnitee shall pay to the Lessee, on a Grossed-Up Basis, an amount equal to the amount of such refund, plus any interest received by or credited to such Tax Indemnitee with respect to such refund; provided, however, that as long as an Event of Default is continuing any such amounts may be applied against any amounts due and owing by Lessee under the Lease; provided, further, however, that no Tax Indemnitee shall be required to pay to the Lessee any refund or credit to the extent such refund or credit is greater than the amount of Impositions in respect of which payment or indemnification was made by the Lessee, reduced by all prior payments by such Tax Indemnitee under this Section 13.4(c)(ii)(y) in respect of such amount. If such repaid refund or credit is thereafter lost, the additional Tax payable shall be treated as a Tax indemnifiable hereunder without regard to the exclusions set forth in clauses (i) through (x) of the definition of Impositions.

(d)   Reports.

       (ii)   If and to the extent the Lessor or its agent has in good faith attempted to comply with its obligation to withhold Taxes in accordance with clause (i) and a claim regarding withholding Taxes is made against the Lessor or its agent (and Lessor or its agent, after good faith efforts, have been unable to recover from the Participant in accordance with clause (iii) below the Taxes that should have been withheld), as between the Lessee and the Lessor (or its agent), the Lessee shall be responsible for, and the Lessee shall indemnify (provided that, prior to the Applicable Base Term Commencement Date for any Facility or Equipment Group with respect to any payment required to be made by Lessee hereunder not arising as a result of an act or omission by Lessee, Guarantor or their respective Affiliates, then pursuant to the terms and conditions concerning Advances set forth in this Participation Agreement Lessee shall request an Advance the proceeds of which shall be used to fund such payment) and hold harmless the Lessor (and its agent) (without duplication of any indemnification required by subsection (a)) on an After Tax Basis against, such claim to the extent, but only to the extent, the Lessor or its agent has actually paid funds to a taxing authority with respect to such withholding taxes or receives a demand for such payment from any taxing authority and subject to the contest rights set forth in Section 13.4(b).

       (iii)   Each Participant agrees to reimburse the Lessor and Administrative Agent for any withholding Taxes for which the Lessor or Administrative Agent becomes liable as a result of payments made to such Participant and, except with respect to such Taxes for which Lessee is liable pursuant to Section 14.3, to reimburse the Lessee for any Taxes or other amounts paid by the Lessee (A) pursuant to clause (ii) hereof and (B) to the extent Lessee has otherwise paid funds to a taxing authority with respect to any withholding taxes or receives a demand for such payment from any taxing authority.

Section 14.1   LIBO Rate Lending Unlawful. If any Participant shall determine (which determination shall, upon notice thereof to the Lessee and the Participants, be conclusive and binding on the Lessee absent manifest error) that the introduction of or any change in the interpretation of any law makes it unlawful, or any central bank or other Governmental Authority asserts that it is unlawful, for such Participant to make available, continue or maintain any Loan or Certificate Amount that bears Interest or Yield based upon the LIBO Rate, as the case may be, the obligation of such Participant to make available, continue or maintain any such Loan or Certificate Amount, as the case may be, shall, upon such determination, forthwith be suspended (provided that such Participant shall be obligated to make, continue or maintain any such Loan or Certificate Amount bearing Interest or Yield at the Alternate Base Rate as specified below) (unless such Participant determines in its sole discretion that it can continue to make any Loan or Certificate Amount based upon the LIBO Rate at one of its lending offices where such action would not be deemed unlawful) until such Participant shall notify the Lessee and the Lessor that the circumstances causing such suspension no longer exist and, to the extent required by any such introduction of or change in or in the interpretation of any law, all Loans or Certificate Amounts, as the case may be, of such Participant shall automatically bear Interest or accrue Yield at the Alternate Base Rate either (a) on the last day of the then current Interest Period applicable to such Loan or Certificate Amount, as the case may be, if such Participant may lawfully continue to maintain and fund such Loan or Certificate Amount, or (b) immediately if such Participant shall determine that it may not lawfully continue to maintain and fund such Loan or Certificate Amount, as the case may be, to such day thereto or sooner, if required by such law or assertion.

Section 14.2   Deposits Unavailable. If any of the Participants shall have determined that:

(a)   Dollar deposits in the relevant amount and for the relevant Interest Period are not available to such Participant in its relevant market; or

(b)   by reason of circumstances affecting such Participant's relevant market, adequate means do not exist for ascertaining the LIBO Rate applicable to such Participant's Loans or Certificate Amounts,

then, upon notice from such Participant to the Lessee and the other Participants, (i) the obligations of the Participants to make available Loans or Certificate Amounts, as the case may be, based on the LIBO Rate, shall be suspended and (ii) each outstanding Loan or Certificate Amount, as the case may be, shall begin to bear Interest or accrue Yield at the Alternate Base Rate on the last day of the then current Interest Period applicable thereto.

Section 14.3   Increased Costs, Etc. If any change in, or the introduction, adoption, effectiveness, interpretation, reinterpretation or phase-in of any law or regulation, directive, guideline, decision or request (whether or not having the force of law) of any court, central bank, regulator or other Governmental Authority after the date hereof increases or would increase the cost (other than in respect of Taxes, except for withholding taxes imposed on actual or constructive payments to a Participant as the result of any change in law, regulation or treaty first enacted, promulgated or signed after the date the Participant acquires its Notes or Certificates, as the case may be, that prevents the Participant from being legally entitled to provide a statement or form evidencing such Participant's complete exemption from withholding as described in Section 12.3(a)(ii)), to any Participant of, or reduces or would reduce the amount of any sum receivable by, such Participant in respect of making available, continuing or maintaining (or of its obligation to make available, continue or maintain) with respect to, any Loans or Certificate Amounts, as the case may be, then the Lessee shall from time to time, within thirty (30) days of demand by such Participant together with the certificate referred to below (with a copy of such demand and certificate to the Administrative Agent), pay (provided, that prior to the Applicable Base Term Commencement Date for any Facility or Unit allocated to an Equipment Group and pursuant to the terms and conditions in this Participation Agreement relating to Advances, Lessee shall request an Advance the proceeds of which shall be used to pay increased costs attributable to Advances which Funded such Uncompleted Facility or Uncompleted Unit) to the Administrative Agent for the account of such Participant additional amounts sufficient to compensate such Participant for such increased cost; provided, that no Participant shall be entitled to demand such compensation more than ninety (90) days following the later of such Participant's incurrence or sufferance thereof and such Participant's actual knowledge of the event giving rise to such Participant's rights under this section; provided further, however, that the foregoing provision shall in no way limit the right of any Participant to demand or receive such compensation to the extent that such compensation relates to the retroactive application of any law, regulation, guideline or request if such demand is made within ninety (90) days after the implementation of such retroactive law, interpretation, guideline or request. A certificate as to the nature and amount of such increased cost, submitted to the Lessee and the Administrative Agent by such Participant in good faith, shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error.

Section 14.4   Funding Losses. In the event any Participant shall incur any loss or out-of-pocket expense (including any Break Costs and any loss or out-of-pocket expense incurred by reason of the liquidation or reemployment of deposits or other funds acquired by such Participant to make available, continue or maintain any portion of the principal amount of any Loan or Certificate Amount, as the case may be) as a result of:

(a)   any conversion or repayment or prepayment of the principal amount of any Loans or Certificate Amounts, as the case may be, on a date other than the scheduled last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto; or

(b)   any Loans or Certificate Amounts, as the case may be, not being made in accordance with the Advance Request therefor (unless such failure to make such Loans or fund such Certificate Amounts, as the case may be, constitutes a breach by the applicable Participant of its obligations under Article III),

then, upon the written notice of such Participant to the Lessee (with a copy to the Lessor), the Lessee shall, within five days of its receipt thereof, pay (provided, that prior to the Applicable Base Term Commencement Date for any Facility or Unit allocated to an Equipment Group and pursuant to the terms and conditions of this Participation Agreement relating to Advances, Lessee shall request an Advance the proceeds of which shall be used to pay losses or out-of-pocket expenses attributable to Advances which Funded such Uncompleted Facility or Uncompleted Unit) directly to such Participant as Supplemental Rent such amount (determined on the basis of such Participant's standard practices) as will reimburse such Participant for such loss or out-of-pocket expense. Such written notice (which shall include calculations in sufficiently reasonable detail to indicate the incurrence and amount of such loss and out-of-pocket expense) shall be presumed correct and binding on the Lessee absent demonstrable error.

Section 14.5   Increased Capital Costs. If any Participant determines that compliance with any law or regulation or any guideline or request from any central bank or other Governmental Authority (whether or not having the force of law) issued, promulgated or made, as the case may be, after the date hereof affects or would affect the amount of capital required or expected to be maintained by such Participant or any corporation controlling such Participant and that the amount of such capital is increased by or based upon the existence of such Participant's Commitment hereunder and other commitments of this type or the Loans or Certificate Amounts, then, within 30 days of demand by such Participant together with the certificate referred to below (with a copy of such demand and certificate to the Administrative Agent), the Lessee shall pay (provided, that prior to the Applicable Base Term Commencement Date for any Facility or Unit allocated to an Equipment Group and pursuant to the terms and conditions in this Participation Agreement relating to Advances, Lessee shall request an Advance the proceeds of which shall be used to pay capital costs attributable to Advances or Commitments which Fund or are available to Fund such Uncompleted Facility or Uncompleted Unit) to the Administrative Agent for the account of such Participant, from time to time as specified by such Participant, additional amounts sufficient to compensate such Participant or such corporation in the light of such circumstances, to the extent that such Participant determines such increase in capital to be allocable to the existence of such Participant's Commitment hereunder or the Fundings made by such Participant hereunder, provided, that no Participant shall be entitled to demand such compensation more than one year following the later of such Participant's incurrence or sufferance thereof and such Participant's actual knowledge of the event giving rise to such Participant's rights under this Section; provided further, however, that the foregoing proviso shall in no way limit the right of any Participant to demand or receive such compensation to the extent that such compensation relates to the retroactive application of any law, regulation, guideline or request described above if such demand is made within one year after the implementation of such retroactive law, interpretation, guidelines or request. A certificate as to such amounts submitted to the Lessee and the Administrative Agent by such Participant in good faith shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error.

Section 14.8   Funding Office. If the Lessee is required to pay additional amounts to or for the account of any Participant pursuant to Sections 14.1 to 14.3, to the extent applicable, then such Participant will agree to use reasonable efforts to change the jurisdiction of its Applicable Lending Office so as to eliminate or reduce any such additional payment which may thereafter accrue if such change, in the sole judgment of such Participant, is not otherwise disadvantageous to such Participant.

Section 14.9   Replacement of Participants. If any Participant shall make demand for payment under Section 14.3 or 14.5, or shall deliver any notice to the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 14.1 resulting in the suspension of certain obligations of the Participants with respect to LIBO Rate Advances or shall refuse to consent to any amendment, modification or waiver which has been approved by the Required Participants but can only become effective upon the consent of all Participants then within sixty (60) days of such demand, notice or refusal, Lessee may demand that such Participant assign in accordance with this Section 14.9 to one or more Eligible Assignees designated by the Lessee all (but not less than all) of such Participant's Commitment(s), Fundings and its Note and Certificate, as applicable, within the next 30 days but such Participant shall be entitled to any amount which would have been due to it under Section 14.4 hereof if such Fundings had been prepaid rather than assigned. If any such Eligible Assignee designated by the Lessee shall fail to consummate such assignment on terms acceptable to such Participant and as otherwise provided in Sections 12.1(a) and 12.1(b), or if the Lessee shall fail to designate any such Eligible Assignee for all of such Participant's Commitment or Fundings, then such Participant may assign such Commitment and Fundings to any other Eligible Assignee in accordance with this Section 14.9 and as otherwise provided in Sections 12.1(a) and 12.1(b) during such 30-day period.

Each of the parties hereto agrees and stipulates that, to the extent permitted by law, any such reproduction shall be admissible in evidence as the original itself in any judicial or administrative proceeding (whether or not the original is in existence and whether or not such reproduction was made by such party in the regular course of business) and that, to the extent permitted by law, any enlargement, facsimile or further reproduction of such reproduction shall likewise be admissible in evidence. This Section 15.19 shall not prohibit the Lessee, Guarantor or any other party hereto from contesting any such reproduction to the same extent that it could contest the original, or from introducing evidence to demonstrate the inaccuracy of any such reproduction.

Section 15.20  Role of Arranger. Each party hereto acknowledges hereby that it is aware of the fact that First Union Securities, Inc. has acted as an "arranger" with respect to the Overall Transaction. The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that Arranger and its Affiliates, including First Union National Bank, have not made any representations or warranties concerning, and that they have not relied upon Arranger as to, the tax, accounting or legal characterization or validity of (i) the Operative Agreements or (ii) any aspect of the Overall Transaction. The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that Arranger has no duties, express or implied, under the Operative Agreements in its capacity as Arranger. The parties hereto further agree that Section 5.1, Section 15.2, the first proviso in the first sentence of Section 15.5, Section 15.18(a), Section 17.6, and this Section 15.20 are for the express benefit of Arranger, and Arranger shall be entitled to rely thereon as if it were a party hereto.

Section 15.21  Deliveries to Participants.

Section 15.22  Retention of Consultants. In connection with any matters to be determined or resolved by an independent engineer, an independent environmental consultant or other third party expert, Administrative Agent is hereby authorized to retain any such third party consultant reasonably acceptable to Lessee, at Lessee's cost and expense (which if incurred prior to the Applicable Base Term Commencement Date for any Uncompleted Facility or Uncompleted Unit and pursuant to the terms and conditions in this Participation Agreement relating to Advances, Lessee shall request an Advance the proceeds of which shall be used to pay such expenses which are attributable to such Facility or Equipment Group), in accordance with the terms of the Operative Agreement calling for or requiring the appointment of such third party consultant.

Section 15.23   "One Form of Action; Antideficiency Rules" in Effect. In the event that a Site or an Equipment Site is located in a jurisdiction in which the "one form of action rule" or any restrictions apply to the right of Lessor or Administrative Agent to make claims for a deficiency, is in effect, the parties hereto shall enter into such amendments, execute such documents and give such waivers as the Administrative Agent shall reasonably deem necessary or advisable to enable the exercise of rights and remedies with respect to the Assets and claims against Lessee and the Guarantors, including without limitation an unsecured environmental indemnity, in form and substance reasonably acceptable to Administrative Agent, having terms substantially similar to those at Exhibit N hereto, with such modifications as may be appropriate to account for the application of the "one form of action rule" as in effect in such jurisdiction.

Section 15.24  Limitations on Transferees' Liability. In any action or proceeding involving any state law, any federal bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization law, or any other law affecting the rights of creditors generally, if the obligations of Lessee or any assignee or sublessee of Lessee (a "Transferee") under the Operative Agreements would otherwise be held or determined to be voidable, invalid or unenforceable as a fraudulent transfer or otherwise as a result or on account of the amount of its liability under the Operative Agreements, then, notwithstanding any other provision hereof to the contrary, the amount of such liability shall, without any further action by Lessee or such Transferee or any other Person, be automatically limited and reduced to the highest amount which is valid, enforceable and unavoidable.

Section 15.25  Transferees' Right to Subrogation and Reimbursement. In the event that any Assets, or the value thereof, are transferred or paid to Lessor or Administrative Agent in satisfaction of any Obligations of an Affiliate of Lessee or any Transferee (the "Affiliate Obligations"), Lessee or such Transferee shall be subrogated to Lessor's rights against the Guarantors under the Guarantees with respect to such Affiliate Obligations, and shall have a right to reimbursement from Guarantors with respect to such Affiliate Obligations; provided that such right of subrogation and right to reimbursement shall be subordinated in all respects to the rights of the Lessor under the Guarantees, including the right to payment in full of all amounts payable thereunder.

Section 16.2   Remedies. Upon the occurrence of any Event of Default and at any time thereafter, Lessor may, so long as such Event of Default is continuing, do one or more of the following as Lessor in its sole discretion shall determine, without limiting any other right or remedy Lessor may have on account of such Event of Default, but subject to the rights of Lessee to purchase the Assets pursuant to the terms and within the time periods as set forth in Section 18.1 of the Lease:

(a)   Without limiting any other remedies set forth in this Participation Agreement or in any of the other Operative Agreements, Lessor, Lessee and the Supervisory Agent agree that upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, Lessor shall have all the rights and may pursue any of the remedies provided to it in Section 16.1 of the Lease and Section 5.1 of the Supervisory Agreement, the terms and provisions of which Lease and Supervisory Agreement are incorporated herein by this reference; and Lessor may prepay or prefund any Project Agreement.

(b)   Lessor may sell all or any part of the Assets at public or private sale, as Lessor may determine, free and clear of any rights of Lessee with respect thereto, in which event Lessee's obligation to pay Basic Rent attributable to such Assets under the Lease for periods commencing after the date of such sale shall be terminated.

(c)   Lessor may demand, by written notice to Lessee, that Lessee pay to Lessor within twenty (20) days after receipt of such notice an amount equal to the Aggregate Permitted Asset Balance, and if such Aggregate Permitted Asset Balance is equal to the Asset Balance, Lessor shall convey the Assets to Lessee in accordance with Section 21.4 of the Lease. Lessor acknowledges and agrees that upon the declaration of an Event of Default, to the maximum extent permitted by law, and subject to the limitation on Lessor's obligations under Section 16.3, Lessee waives any right to contest that the payment of the amount described in the preceding sentence constitutes the correct liquidated recourse sum due upon acceleration of the Lease.

(d)   Upon the occurrence of the Event of Default described in Section 16.1(m), whether or not another Event of Default described in one or more other subsections of Section 16.1 shall have been or thereafter is declared, the Lease shall terminate immediately without notice and Lessee shall immediately pay to the Administrative Agent, on behalf of Lessor, as and for liquidated damages and without limitation on any other remedies provided for herein, an amount equal to the Aggregate Permitted Asset Balance.

(e)   To the maximum extent permitted by law, the Lessee hereby waives (x) the benefit of any appraisement, valuation, stay, extension, reinstatement and redemption laws now or hereafter in force and all rights of marshaling in the event of any sale of the Assets or any interest therein and (y) any rights now or in the future conferred by statute or otherwise which may require the Lessor to sell, lease or otherwise use the Assets in mitigation of the Lessor's damages or which may otherwise limit or modify any remedy of damages.

(f)   Lessor shall be entitled to enforce payment of the Loan Balance and Certificate Amounts and the performance of the Obligations and to exercise all rights and powers under this Participation Agreement or under any of the other Operative Agreements or other agreement or any laws now or hereafter in force, notwithstanding some or all of the Obligations may now or hereafter be secured, whether by mortgage, security agreement, pledge, lien, assignment or otherwise. Neither the acceptance of this Participation Agreement nor its enforcement, shall prejudice or in any manner affect Lessor's right to realize upon or enforce any security now or hereafter held by Lessor, it being agreed that Lessor shall be entitled to enforce this Participation Agreement and the Operative Agreements, and any security now or hereafter held by Lessor in such order and manner as Lessor may determine in its absolute discretion. No remedy herein conferred upon or reserved to Lessor is intended to be exclusive of any other remedy herein or by law provided or permitted, but each shall be cumulative and shall be in addition to every other remedy given hereunder or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or by statute. Every power or remedy given by any of the Operative Agreements to Lessor or to which it may otherwise be entitled, may be exercised, concurrently or independently, from time to time and as often as may be deemed expedient by Lessor. Without limiting the foregoing, each of the powers, rights and remedies as set forth or otherwise permitted pursuant to this Section 16.2 are independent of the provisions of Article XIII of this Participation Agreement and shall not be affected by any exclusion set forth at Section 13.1(b).

(g)   The proceeds derived from any sale of all or any part of the Assets after an Event of Default shall be distributed pursuant to Section 5.3(g). The amount realized by Lessor upon a sale of all or any part of the Assets shall be net of Lessor's sale expenses and other expenses reasonably and customarily incurred by Lessor in connection with Lessor holding and owning such Assets until such time as such Assets are sold.

(h)   If Lessor has possession of any Facility or Equipment Group but has neither sold nor foreclosed upon such Facility or Equipment Group within two (2) years after receipt of the Lease Supplement Permitted Balance for such Facility or Equipment Group, including pursuant to Section 16.2(d), Lessor will appoint a qualified independent sales agent to sell such Facility or Equipment Group, as the case may be, pursuant to the first bona fide offer received from a creditworthy offeror and for an all cash purchase price at the then fair market value of such Facility or Equipment Group, as the case may be, to the extent the conditions therefor are satisfied. Any proceeds resulting from the operation of this subsection (h) net of the costs and expenses of such sale and costs incurred to maintain the leased property will be applied in accordance with Section 5.3(g). Notwithstanding the foregoing in no event shall Lessor have any liability to Lessee for failure to sell all or any of the Assets pursuant to the foregoing criteria in this subsection (h) unless such failure is due to the gross negligence or willful misconduct of Lessor.

(i)   With respect to any Facility or Equipment Group, Lessor may require Supervisory Agent to (or Supervisory Agent shall be required to, if an Insolvency Event has occurred) immediately pay to Administrative Agent, on behalf of Lessor, as an amount for liquidated damages, an amount equal to the Lease Supplement Permitted Balance with respect to such Facility or Equipment Group and Supervisory Agent may at its election and provided an Insolvency Event has not occurred and Supervisory Agent has paid in full the foregoing amounts, within 10 Business Days after delivery by Lessor of notice of an Event of Default, exercise the option to purchase such Facility or Equipment Group from Lessor by paying immediately (but in any event within five (5) days after such 10 Business Day period) an amount equal to the excess of the (x) Lease Supplement Balance with respect to such Facility or Equipment Group as of the date of such payment over (y) the foregoing amounts paid by the Supervisory Agent. Unless Supervisory Agent shall have so exercised its purchase option, Lessor may cause such Facility or Equipment Group, as the case may be, to be sold in accordance with Section 16.2(b) or 16.2(g). If Supervisory Agent shall have so exercised its purchase option (and made all applicable payments in respect thereof, subject to the foregoing limitations and conditions), Lessor shall convey title to such Facility or Equipment Group to Supervisory Agent or its designee in accordance with Section 21.4 of the Lease assuming for these purposes that said Section of the Lease is then applicable.

Section 16.3   Limitation on Recourse Liability Prior to Applicable Base Term Commencement Date and With Respect to Certain Certifications and Representations.

(a)   (i)      Notwithstanding any other provision set forth in this Participation Agreement or any of the other Operative Agreements, in the event of the occurrence and continuance of an Event of Default relating to a Lease Supplement for an Uncompleted Facility or Uncompleted Equipment Group which occurs prior to the Applicable Base Term Commencement Date solely with respect to such Uncompleted Facility or an Uncompleted Unit in such Equipment Group, Lessee or the Supervisory Agent, as the case may be, shall not be required to pay more than the Lease Supplement Recourse Amount with respect to such Uncompleted Facility or Uncompleted Unit in such Equipment Group on a recourse basis with respect to any damages (which shall include Breakage Costs) arising from such Event of Default; and; provided, however, that if an Event of Default with respect to a Completed Facility or affecting an entire Completed Equipment Group is caused or arises solely as a result of a Force Majeure Event that also constitutes a Construction Period Event of Default under any of Section 16.1(d), (e) or (f) relating to an Uncompleted Facility or Uncompleted Equipment Group giving rise to an Uninsured Loss, unless Lessee gives a Purchase Notice to purchase the affected Uncompleted Facility or Uncompleted Unit, then Lessee's recourse liability under Section 16.2 of the Lease with respect to the Lease Supplement Balance applicable to the Lease Supplement for such Completed Facility or Completed Equipment Group affected by such Event of Default shall not exceed the applicable Lease Supplement Recourse Amount; provided, further, that the foregoing limitation on Lessee's recourse liability shall not apply as to any such Completed Facility or Completed Unit or serve to limit Lessor's right to demand and receive payment from Lessee on a recourse basis of the full Lease Supplement Permitted Balance with respect to such Facility or Equipment Group with respect to any other Event of Default then existing or thereafter arising.

     (ii)   Notwithstanding the foregoing, if, following the Applicable Base Term Commencement Date with respect to any Completed Facility, Lessor declares an Event of Default under Section 16.1(h) solely as a result of a breach of a certification given by Lessee with respect to the satisfaction of the condition precedent at Section 6.2(m) hereof or a breach of the representation or warranty at Section 14.4(b) of the PPL Supply Guarantee, or under Section 16.1(v)(ii) solely as a result of a Material Debt Agreement Limited Recourse Event, Lessee's recourse liability under Section 16.2 solely with respect to the Lease Supplement Balance applicable to the Lease Supplement for each such Completed Facility will not exceed the Lease Supplement RVG Amount for each such Completed Facility.

(b)   The limitations on Lessee's recourse liability set forth in Section 16.3(a) shall not apply (i) with respect to any Event of Default arising in whole or in part as a consequence of any Full Recourse Interim Event, (ii) with respect to the rights of parties to seek all damages or the recovery of any portion of each Lease Supplement Balance in excess of the applicable Lease Supplement Recourse Amount, or in the case of a Completed Facility or Completed Equipment Group, any portion of each Lease Supplement Balance in excess of the Lease Supplement RVG Amount, without regard to such limitations on Lessee's recourse liability, from the proceeds of such Uncompleted Facility or Uncompleted Equipment Group or in the case of such Completed Facility or Completed Equipment Group the proceeds of such Assets and any other Completed Facility or the Units of an Equipment Group which has achieved the Unit Completion Date, as the case may be, or, in either case, any other Collateral, or (iii) to any Claim for indemnity under Article XIII, subject in the case of Section 13.1 only to the limitations if applicable in the final paragraph of Section 13.1(a), or (i) any amounts for which Lessee is obligated to pay on a recourse basis pursuant to Section 4.3(a). Without limiting the foregoing, the limitations at Section 16.3(a)(ii) shall not apply if, at any time an Event of Default of the type described in Section 16.3(a)(ii) occurs or exists, an Event of Default (including under Section 16.1(h) or 16.1(v)(ii)) arises with respect to any event, condition, matter or breach other than as specifically referred to in Section 16.3(a)(ii).

The Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely, and shall be fully protected in relying, upon any Note, Certificate, writing, resolution, notice, consent, certificate, affidavit, letter, facsimile message, statement, order or other document or other written communication believed by it to be genuine and correct and to have been signed, sent or made by the proper Person or Persons and upon advice and statements of legal counsel (including, without limitation, counsel to the Lessor or the Lessee), independent accountants and other experts selected by the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent may deem and treat the payee of any Note or Certificate as the owner thereof for all purposes unless a written notice of assignment, negotiation or transfer thereof shall have been filed with the Administrative Agent, in accordance with the Loan Agreement or the Trust Agreement, as applicable. The Administrative Agent shall be fully justified in failing or refusing to take any action under this Participation Agreement or any other Operative Agreement unless it shall first receive the advice or concurrence of the Required Participants, or it shall first be indemnified to its satisfaction by the applicable Participants against any and all liability and expense which may be incurred by it by reason of taking or continuing to take any such action. The Administrative Agent shall in all cases be fully protected in acting, or in refraining from acting, under this Participation Agreement and the other Operative Agreements in accordance with a request of the Required Participants, and such request and any action taken or failure to act pursuant thereto shall be binding upon all the Participants and all future holders of the applicable Notes or Certificates. Wherever in the Operative Agreements the consent or approval of the Administrative Agent is required, in giving any such consent or approval the Administrative Agent may rely upon, or make its approval subject to, the directions of or consent or approval from the Required Participants.

Section 17.5   Notice of Default. The Administrative Agent shall not be deemed to have knowledge or notice of the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default unless the Administrative Agent has received notice from a Participant or the Lessor referring to this Participation Agreement, describing such Default or Event of Default and stating that such notice is a "notice of default". In the event that the Administrative Agent receives such a notice, the Administrative Agent shall promptly give notice thereof to the Participants, the Lessor and the Lessee. The Administrative Agent shall take such action with respect to such Default or Event of Default as shall be directed by the Required Participants; provided, however, that unless and until the Administrative Agent shall have received such directions, the Administrative Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) take such action, or refrain from taking such action, with respect to such Default or Event of Default as it shall deem advisable in the best interests of the Participants.

Section 17.6   Non-Reliance on Administrative Agent and Other Participants. Each Participant expressly acknowledges that neither the Administrative Agent nor the Arranger, nor any of their respective officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys-in-fact or Affiliates, has made any representations or warranties to it and that no act by the Administrative Agent or the Arranger hereinafter taken, including any review of the affairs of the Lessor or the Lessee, shall be deemed to constitute any representation or warranty by the Administrative Agent or the Arranger to any Participant. Each Participant represents to the Administrative Agent and the Arranger that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent, the Arranger or any other Participant, and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own appraisal of and investigation into the business, operations, property, financial and other condition and creditworthiness of the Lessor and the Lessee and made its own decision to enter into this Participation Agreement. Each Participant also represents that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or the Arranger or any other Participant, and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit analysis, appraisals and decisions in taking or not taking action under this Participation Agreement and the other Operative Agreements, and to make such investigation as it deems necessary to inform itself as to the business, operations, property, financial and other condition and creditworthiness of the Lessor and the Lessee. Except for notices, reports and other documents expressly required to be furnished to the Participants by the Administrative Agent, neither the Administrative Agent nor the Arranger shall have any duty or responsibility to provide any Participant with any credit or other information concerning the business, operations, property, condition (financial or otherwise), prospects or creditworthiness of the Lessor or the Lessee which may come into the possession of the Administrative Agent or the Arranger or any of their respective officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys-in-fact or Affiliates.

Section 17.7   Administrative Agent in its Individual Capacity. FUNB and any of its Affiliates, if acting as a holder of a Note and/or Certificate Holder, shall have the same rights and powers under any Note and/or Certificate, this Participation Agreement and the other Operative Agreements as any other Participant as though FUNB were not the Administrative Agent; and the term "Certificate Holder," "Lender" or "Participant" shall, unless otherwise expressly indicated, include FUNB in its individual capacity or any such Affiliate, and FUNB and its Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to, act as trustee under indentures of, and generally engage in any kind of business with, Lessee, either Guarantor and any Subsidiary of Lessee or either Guarantor and any Person who may do business with or own securities of Lessee or either Guarantor or any Subsidiary of Lessee or either Guarantor, all as if FUNB were not the Administrative Agent and without and without any duty to account therefore to the Participants.

Section 17.8   Indemnification. The Participants agree to indemnify the Administrative Agent, ratably according to the respective aggregate principal and Certificate Amounts of the Notes and/or Certificates held by each Participant, as the case may be (or if the Notes and Certificates have been fully repaid and retired or if any Notes or Certificates are held by Persons which are not Participants, ratably according to either (i) the respective aggregate amounts of their Commitments, or (ii) if all such Commitments have terminated, the respective amounts of the Commitments so terminated), from and against any and all losses of any kind or nature whatsoever which may be imposed on, incurred by, or asserted against the Administrative Agent in any way relating to or arising out of this Participation Agreement, any other Operative Agreement or any action taken or omitted by Administrative Agent under this Participation Agreement or any other Operative Agreement, provided, that no Participant shall be liable to the Administrative Agent for any portion of such losses resulting from the Administrative Agent's gross negligence or willful misconduct. Without limiting the foregoing, each Participant agrees to reimburse the Administrative Agent promptly upon demand for its ratable share of any out-of-pocket expenses (including reasonable counsel fees) incurred by the Administrative Agent in connection with the preparation, execution, delivery, administration, modification, amendment or enforcement (whether through negotiations, legal proceedings or otherwise) of, or legal advice in respect of rights or responsibilities under, this Participation Agreement or any other Operative Agreement to the extent that the Administrative Agent is not reimbursed for such expenses by the Lessee.

Section 17.9   Successor Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent may resign at any time by giving written notice thereof to the Participants and the Lessee and may be removed at any time with or without cause by the Required Participants. Upon any such resignation or removal, the Required Participants shall have the right to appoint a successor Administrative Agent. If no successor Administrative Agent shall have been so appointed by the Required Participants, and shall have accepted such appointment, within thirty (30) days after the retiring Administrative Agent's giving of notice of resignation or the Required Participants' removal of the retiring Administrative Agent, then the retiring Administrative Agent may, on behalf of the Participants, appoint a successor Administrative Agent, which shall be a commercial bank described in clause (i) or (ii) of the definition of "Eligible Assignee" and having a combined capital and surplus of at least $150,000,000. Upon the acceptance of any appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder by a successor Administrative Agent, such successor Administrative Agent shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Administrative Agent, and the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations under this Participation Agreement. After any retiring Administrative Agent's resignation or removal hereunder as Administrative Agent, the provisions of this Article XVII shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was Administrative Agent under this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing if no Event of Default and no Default, shall have occurred and be continuing, then no successor Administrative Agent shall be appointed under this Section 17.9 without the prior written consent of the Lessee, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed.
