RECITALS WHEREAS, the Agency has dispatched Member's Generating Facilities as base load generation since the inception of the Agreement; and WHEREAS, the Agency has paid Member for its Dedicated Capacity based on the terms of Section 4 of the Agreement and on "Displaced Purchased Power and Energy," which means "power and energy which would otherwise have been purchased by the Agency had the Generating Facility not been available for use by the Agency;" and WHERAS, under the Agreement, Displaced Purchased Power and Energy was based on the cost from the then existing I&M/AEP purchase power agreement with the Agency; and Exhibit "A" WHEREAS, the Agency entered into a new purchase power agreement with AEP effective January 1, 2006, pursuant to which the Agency purchases 150 MW of firm power on terms and conditions that are very different from the terms and conditions of prior agreements with AEP, and which affect the application of the Displaced Purchased Power and Energy and the amount the Agency pays Member for Dedicated Capacity provided by its Generating Facilities; and WHEREAS, prior to January 1, 2006, the Agency used Member's Generating Facilities as base load units, with a capacity factor of between 60% to 70%; and WHEREAS, Member's fuel costs and emission allowance costs have increased significantly during the recent past; and WHEREAS, Member's Generating Facilities are uneconomical to run under the existing Agreement as base load units with the present cost increases; and WHEREAS, Member's Generating Facilities are located in the recently -developed PJM Energy Market; and WHEREAS, the PJM Energy Market provides an opportunity to operate the Member's Generating Facilities economically as intermediate loading machines at less than a 60% capacity factor; and WHEREAS, it is more economical for the Agency to use Member's Generating Facilities as intermediate load facilities and for the Agency to pay Member for Dedicated Capacity using LMP pricing from the energy market operator in the determination of the cost of Displaced Purchased Power and Energy; and WHEREAS, the Agency and the Member agree that the formula for determining the cost of Displaced Purchased Power and Energy and the payment for Dedicated Capacity in Section 4 of the Agreement should be amended in the foregoing manner from the effective date until December 31, 2006 ("initial term') and during any renewal term. NOW THEREFORE, for and in consideration of the payments and performance which already have been made and performed under the Agreement and in consideration of the promises herein contained, the Agency and the Member agree that the Agreement shall be, and is hereby, modified, altered and changed in the following respects only: Effective April 1, 2006, Section 4 of the Agreement is amended to add a new Section 4 (K) to read as follows: (K) Upon prior written notice from Member to the Agency, and at the option of Member, the Agency may dispatch the Member's Generating Facilities in the PJM Energy Market as intermediate or peaking units, instead of base load units. If the Member provides the Agency with written notice that it elects to have the Agency dispatch its Generating Facilities as intermediate or peaking units under this Section 4(K), then the terms of Section 4 shall be amended as provided in this Section 4 (K) for an initial term from April 12006 to December 31, 2006. If Member gives written notice to the Agency at least sixty (60) days prior to December 31, 2006 and each December 31 thereafter, then this Section 4 (K) of the Agreement shall remain in effect from January 1 through December 31 of each year that this Agreement is renewed.. The initial term and any renewal term of this Section 4 (K) ends on December 31 of the year when Member fails to give written notice to Agency at least sixty (60) days prior to December 31. The Agency will work with the Member to establish operating guidelines for dispatching of Member's Generating Facilities. During the time period the Member's Generating Facilities are dispatched by the Agency as intermediate or peaking units, the Agency's payments for Dedicated Capacity under Sections 4(A), 4(B) and 4(C) will be suspended and replaced by payments for Dedicated Capacity under this Section 4(K). The Agency's monthly payments for Dedicated Capacity under this Section 4(K) will be based on the actual net revenue received by the Agency for the Member's actual generation during the month (LMP Monthly Pam), as described below. LMP Monthly Payment for Dedicated Capacity = the sum of the hourly Net LMP Revenue over every hour of the month. Where: Net LMP Revenue is the sum of the Day -Ahead Revenue and the Real -Time Revenue minus the Real -Time Operating Reserve Charge by hour. The Net LMP Revenue shall be subject to an after -the -fact true up for any adjustments in these revenues or charges received by the Agency from the energy market operator. Day -Ahead Revenue is the product of (1) the scheduled generation in megawatts for each hour from the Member's Generating Facilities and (2) the Day - Ahead AEP Load Zone LMP price for the same hour as published by the energy market operator. The scheduled generation will be determined by the Agency in consultation with the Member. Real -Time Revenue is the product of (1) the difference between the Real -Time Generation for each hour from the Member's Generating Facilities and (2) the Real -Time AEP Load Zone LMP price for the same hour as published by the energy market operator. Real Time Revenue can be either positive or negative. Real -Time Generation is the difference between the scheduled and actual net generation in megawatts for each hour from the Member's Generating Facilities. Real -Time Generation canbe either positive or negative. Real -Time Operating Reserve Charge is the product of the (1) absolute value of the Real -Time Generation for each hour and (2) hourly Real -Time Operating Reserve Charge for the same hour, as published by the energy market operator. Exhibit VII attached hereto contains a sample of how the LMP Monthly Payment for Dedicated Capacity is calculated. In the event the energy market operator significantly modifies the LMP pricing methodology, or eliminates it altogether, the Agency and Member will cooperatively work together to develop a replacement payment method that will accomplish the same objective as intended by this Section 4 (K). Total payments for Dedicated Capacity during any twelve-month period will not exceed the total Member Capacity Costs (MCC), and Member Fuel Costs (MFC), as defined below. MCC = Member Capacity Cost: Member Capacity Cost for the month of usage of Dedicated Capacity by the Agency shall be the actual cost per kW incurred by Member in the previous month, including all of the operations and maintenance costs incurred in running the Generating Facilities, insurance costs, an allocated share of the Member's administration and general expenses, a proportionate part of the Member's production -related debt service costs, and an allowance for amortization of and interest on expenditures for Capital or Fixed Assets and Extraordinary Items, as defined in Form A-1. This cost will be determined on standardized forms (see Exhibit II), using costs determined in accordance with the Uniform System of Accounts from the Member's records. MFC - Member Fuel Charge: The Cost of Fuel per net kWh produced by the Member's Generating Facility during the month of usage of Dedicated Capacity by the Agency. IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have caused this Third Amendment to Capacity Purchase Agreement to be executed by their proper officers, respectively, being thereunto duly authorized, and their respective corporate seals to be hereto affixed, as of the day, month and year first above written.
