(i) the intended transferee is another Supporting Party; or

(ii) the execution of a transfer agreement in the form reasonably acceptable to the Company and the Supporting Parties (a “Transfer Agreement”) prior to or concurrently with the closing of such Transfer and provides the fully executed Transfer Agreement to Counsel to each Supporting Party substantially concurrent with the closing of such Transfer.

(d) This Agreement shall in no way be construed to preclude the Supporting Parties from acquiring additional Creditor Claims; provided, however, that (i) any Supporting Party that acquires additional Creditor Claims, as applicable, after the Agreement Effective Date shall notify counsel to the Parties of such acquisition, including the amount of such acquisition, which notice may be deemed to be provided by the filing of a statement with the Bankruptcy Court as required by Rule 2019 of the Federal Rules of Bankruptcy Procedure, including revised holdings information for such Supporting Party and (ii) such additional Creditor Claims shall automatically and immediately upon acquisition by a Supporting Party, as applicable, be deemed subject to the terms of this Agreement (regardless of when or whether notice of such acquisition is given to the respective counsels to the Parties).

As used herein, the term “Qualified Marketmaker” means an entity that (a) holds itself out to the public or the applicable private markets as standing ready in the ordinary course of business to purchase from customers and sell to customers claims of the Debtors (or enter with customers into long and short positions in claims against the Debtors), in its capacity as a dealer or market maker in claims against the Debtors and (b) is, in fact, regularly in the business of making a market in claims against issuers or borrowers (including debt securities or other debt).

(f) Any Transfer made in violation of this Section 6 shall be void ab initio. Any Supporting Party that effectuates a Permitted Transfer to a Permitted Transferee shall have no liability under this Agreement arising from or related to the failure of the Permitted Transferee to comply with the terms of this Agreement. The failure by a Supporting Party to comply with the Transfer procedure described in this Section 6 (resulting in such Transfer becoming null and void ab initio) shall not constitute a material breach for purposes of Section 10.02(a) of this Agreement.

(g) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, if a Supporting Party effects the Permitted Transfer of all of its Creditor Claims in accordance with this Agreement, such Supporting Party shall cease to be a Party to this Agreement in all respects and shall have no further obligation hereunder.

• The Company shall provide the Supporting Parties draft copies of all motions, applications and proposed orders related to the Sale Process that the Company intends to file with the Bankruptcy Court regarding the Sale Process and shall consult in good faith regarding the form and substance of each proposed pleading, so long as the participating Supporting Party has not participated in the applicable bidding process.

The Mansfield Issues Protocol shall be in form and substance reasonably acceptable to the Company, the Supporting Parties, WSFS, MetLife and the Owner Trustee and is attached to the PSA as Exhibit C.

Conduct of Business		• The Company (i) shall operate its business in the ordinary course (considering the fact and impact of the Chapter 11 Cases), including but not limited to using their commercially reasonable efforts to preserve their assets and their business relationships, continuing to operate their billing and collection procedures, and maintaining their business records in accordance with their past practices, and (ii) shall give reasonable notice to, and consult with, the Supporting Parties prior to entering into any transactions that are outside the ordinary course of business; provided, however, any Nuclear Transaction shall be subject to the provisions set forth in the PSA. • The Company shall consult with the Supporting Parties on the development of capacity auction strategies and on other such operational matters and shall work in good faith to effectuate a mutually acceptable capacity auction strategy.

Payment of Professional Fees		Subject to the entry of an order by the Bankruptcy Court authorizing the Company’s entry into and performance under the PSA: • The Company shall pay reasonable and documented hourly and monthly professional fees and expenses of the following advisors to the Ad Hoc Noteholder Group: ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ & ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ LLP, GLC Advisors & Co., LLC, ▇▇▇▇▇ & ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ LLP, a nuclear regulatory counsel, and a technical advisor, as adequate protection during the Chapter 11 Cases and in consideration of the obligations undertaken by the Ad Hoc Noteholder Group under the PSA.

Execution Version

• The Ad Hoc Noteholder Group shall not, and shall take commercially reasonable efforts to cause the applicable collateral indenture trustees to not, seek any form of adequate protection other than (i) payment of such trustees’ legal fees (including as provided in the PSA), (ii) replacement liens on property constituting the collateral of FE or the members of the Ad Hoc Noteholder Group, as applicable, in each case solely to the extent of any postpetition diminution in value, and (iii) superpriority claims to the extent of any diminution in value. For the avoidance of doubt, such adequate protection shall not include any liens in or superpriority claims on avoidance actions, the proceeds thereof, or any other unencumbered property of the Company.

Notwithstanding anything else to the contrary in this Stipulation and Protocol, but subject to the following proviso, the Debtors shall not be required to make any payments of Basic Rent or Supplemental Rent (as defined in the Participation Agreements) during such period and the Mansfield Parties waive any

Execution Version

administrative claims against the Debtors on account of such Basic Rent and Supplemental Rent obligations; provided, however, that such waiver shall be without prejudice to the Indenture Trustee’s right to seek, in lieu of such waived Basic Rent and Supplemental Rent, allowance of administrative expense claims for (x) any breach of the Debtors’ obligations to operate and maintain Unit 1 in accordance with this Stipulation and Protocol, and (y) the reasonable value of any benefits conferred upon the Debtors’ estates by virtue of the Debtors’ continued operation of the Undivided Interest during the postpetition period; provided, further that any party may contest the allowance and nature of any such claims.

2. A hearing before the Bankruptcy Court on approval of the Rejection Motion shall be scheduled and noticed for a date on or after 60 calendar days following the Petition Date, which date shall not be prior to the effective date of the Amended Operating Agreement (as defined below); provided, that notwithstanding the foregoing, such hearing shall take place on or prior to 120 days following the Petition Date.

3. Within 10 days of the Petition Date, the Mansfield Certificateholders Group, the Indenture Trustee, the Owner Trustee and MetLife (collectively, the “Consenting Parties”) shall, jointly or individually based on their respective preference, file a pleading indicating their consent, or in the case of the Indenture Trustee, the Owner Trustee and MetLife, lack of objection to rejection of the Rejected Operative Documents in accordance with this protocol, and no Party shall object to the relief sought in the Rejection Motion, provided, that the order granting the Rejection Motion shall be reasonably acceptable to the Consenting Parties and in all respects, and the Consenting Parties expressly reserve the right to object to entry of any order granting the Rejection Motion that is not reasonably acceptable to the Consenting Parties.

Execution Version

4. Rejection of the Rejected Operative Documents and the Consenting Parties’ consent thereto shall be without prejudice to the rights of the Parties to assert that the Mansfield Facility Agreements are not “true leases” for purposes of 11 U.S.C. § 502(b)(6) and without prejudice to any other arguments of the Parties relating to the characterization of the Mansfield Facility Agreements or to the allowance of any claim concerning the Rejected Operative Documents (including claims concerning or arising from the rejection thereof).

5. Subject to paragraph 6 of this Stipulation and Protocol, the Debtors shall not reject or seek to reject the Operating Agreement or any Operative Documents other than the Rejected Operative Documents (as defined in the Participation Agreement); provided, that the Debtors, in their sole discretion, may seek to reject such agreements upon the earliest of (x) a sale or other disposition of the Undivided Interest, (y) termination of the Parties’ obligations under this Stipulation and Protocol in accordance with the Process Support Agreement and (z) failure of the Debtors and the Mansfield Parties to reach agreement on the terms of an amended operating agreement with respect to Unit 1 of the ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Plant on or before 120 days following the Petition Date.

6. Nothing in this Stipulation and Protocol shall be considered an amendment, modification, supplement or waiver to which the Owner Participants have consented for purposes of section 5(a)(2) of the Tax Indemnity Agreements and section 9.2(b) of the Participation Agreements. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Stipulation and Protocol, the Debtors, in consultation with the Ad Hoc Noteholder Group and the Mansfield Certificateholders Group, reserve the right to seek to reject the Tax Indemnity Agreements on 30 days’ notice to parties in interest, including the Owner Participants, and all Parties reserve their rights with respect to such proposed rejection, including, without limitation, whether the Tax

Indemnity Agreements are executory contracts capable of being assumed or rejected under section 365 of the Bankruptcy Code. The agreement by the Debtors to not seek to reject the Tax Indemnity Agreements in accordance with this Stipulation and Protocol (including not seeking such rejection on a nunc pro tunc basis to the Petition Date) shall be without prejudice to any arguments the Debtors or other parties may assert with respect to the allowance of claims arising under the Tax Indemnity Agreements and whether such claims are subject to the 502(b)(6) Cap. Further, notwithstanding the Debtors’ agreement not to reject the Tax Indemnity Agreement in accordance with this Stipulation and Protocol, the Owner Trustee, MetLife and, to the extent BM1 determines to execute a joinder to this Stipulation and ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇, agree that any claim arising under the Tax Indemnity Agreements allowed against the Debtors shall be a prepetition general unsecured claim and shall not be entitled to administrative expense or priority status pursuant to Bankruptcy Code sections 503 and 507.

The Debtors, in consultation with the Ad Hoc Noteholder Group and the Mansfield Certificateholders Group, MetLife, and, to the extent BM1 determines to execute a joinder to this Stipulation and ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇, may agree to an alternative procedural mechanism in connection with any claim that MetLife may assert with respect to the Tax Indemnity Agreements or the indemnity contained in Section 9 of the Participation Agreements, provided that such agreement shall not relieve MetLife or BM1 of its obligation to participate in discovery with respect to such claims as provided in paragraphs 9-12 of this Stipulation and Protocol. Nor shall MetLife or BM1 be relieved of its obligation to participate in mediation as provided in section III of this Stipulation and Protocol unless MetLife’s claims against the Debtors, if any, are fully resolved

Execution Version

8. The Mansfield Adversary Proceeding shall be filed by the Debtors on or before June 15, 2018 and governed by the schedule (the “Schedule”) attached hereto as Exhibit 2.

The Schedule and the paragraphs 12-23 of this Stipulation and Protocol shall survive any termination of this Stipulation and Protocol if and only if such termination occurs on or after the deadline for completion of fact discovery, provided that, in the event of a termination prior to such deadline, the Parties reserve their rights to object to any efforts to take discovery that is duplicative or not permitted under applicable laws or rules.

9. Pursuant to paragraphs 12–23 of this Stipulation and Protocol, the Parties may obtain discovery concerning the Mansfield Claims under this Stipulation and Protocol.

The Mansfield Parties, the Ad Hoc Noteholder Group, and the Committee (if it agrees to participate by such time) shall respond with additions to or comments on the Diligence List by April 10, 2018.

The Parties shall work in good faith, including by meeting and conferring as needed to resolve any objections to materials requested in connection with the Diligence List, to finalize the Diligence List by April 20, 2018; provided that the Diligence List may be reasonably supplemented after April 20, 2018 based on ongoing discovery.

The Parties shall exchange documents agreed upon in the Diligence List on a rolling basis, and will substantially complete their exchange of documents by July 15, 2018 or by a date as modified pursuant to paragraph 22 of this Stipulation and Protocol.

Unless otherwise ordered by the Bankruptcy Court for cause shown, no individual may be deposed more than once in any given capacity, and each deposition taken in connection with a dispute governed by this Stipulation and Protocol shall be limited to seven hours of testimony. If multiple Parties other than the Mansfield Parties seek to depose the same witness, the seven hours shall be allocated equitably among such Parties seeking to depose the witness, or as those Parties otherwise agree. The Parties shall confer in good faith about the time allotted for each Party prior to the deposition.

If any recipient of a discovery request withholds or redacts any documents on the grounds of privilege, work product, or any other type of protection or immunity from disclosure, that person shall provide the applicable requesting Parties with a privilege log consistent with Federal Rule of Civil Procedure Rule 26(b)(5). Efficient means of providing information regarding claims of privilege are encouraged, and the parties shall endeavor to agree upon measures that further this end. For example, the parties may work out a mutually agreeable method for asserting privilege on the same basis with respect to multiple documents by group or category.

21. Protective Order. All discovery in connection with this Stipulation and Protocol shall be subject to and conducted in accordance with the terms of the protective order entered into in the Chapter 11 Cases (the “Protective Order”), which shall be in form and substance reasonably acceptable to the Parties hereto.

Unless otherwise agreed by the disputing parties, any response to such letter shall be made by letter to the Bankruptcy Court delivered within five business days after service of the initial letter submission, so long as the submission of such letter on that timetable is acceptable to the Bankruptcy Court.

III.

Mediation

25. Appointment of Mediator. The Parties shall appoint as mediator (the “Mediator”) a sitting United States Bankruptcy Judge that is acceptable to the Parties.

26. Conduct of Mediation. Pursuant to the terms of the Schedule (attached hereto as Exhibit 2) the Mediation shall commence on or prior to November 1, 2018 and terminate on or prior to December 15, 2018, provided, however, that the Mediator may reasonably extend the length of the Mediation. An initial mediation conference shall occur at a time and place designated by the Mediator on the date the Mediation commences, or as soon thereafter as reasonably practicable. The Parties shall meet and confer with the Mediator to establish the procedures of the Mediation.

No person or Party, including their counsel, shall in any way disclose any such discussion, mediation statement, other document or information, correspondence, resolution, offer, or counteroffer which may be made or provided in connection with the Mediation, unless otherwise available and not subject to a separate confidentiality agreement that would prevent its disclosure; provided, that notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing shall prohibit the sharing of any discussion, mediation statement, other document or information ,correspondence, resolution, offer, or counteroffer which may be made or provided in connection with the Mediation between or among any Party, its counsel, and its other agents (subject to any applicable confidentiality restrictions). For the

Execution Version

avoidance of doubt, nothing in this paragraph 28 shall limit the ability of a Party to disclose and use materials obtained in connection with the Mediation that are separately available to that Party outside the Mediation, including materials obtained through discovery under this Stipulation and Protocol and outside this Stipulation and Protocol.

All settlement proposals, counterproposals, and offers of compromise made during, or relating to, the Mediation (collectively, “Settlement Proposals”) shall: (i) remain confidential unless the party making such Settlement Proposal agrees to its disclosure, and (ii) be subject to protection under Federal Rule of Evidence 408 and any equivalent or comparable state law.

30.

Other Matters

The Debtors, in consultation with the Ad Hoc Noteholder Group, and the Mansfield Parties agree to negotiate in good faith a new operating agreement relating to Unit 1 (the “Amended Operating Agreement”), within 60 days of the Petition Date, setting forth the terms and conditions on which FG will continue to operate Unit 1; provided, that negotiation of and entry into the Amended Operating Agreement shall not prejudice any Party’s arguments with respect to the characterization of the Operative Documents, the application of the 502(b)(6) Cap to claims arising from the Operative Documents (including arising from rejection thereof), or other claims arising from the Operative Documents.

Execution Version

During the period prior to the effective date of the amendment to the Operating Agreement referenced in paragraph 31(a) above, the Debtors shall continue to operate and maintain the ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Plant (including, without limitation, Unit 1) in accordance with prudent industry practice and applicable law, taking into account the fact and impact of the ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Event, and in a manner reasonably designed to maximize the value of and net proceeds associated with the output of Unit 1 (taking into account, among other matters, the value of any insurance claims), and in a non-discriminatory manner as (i) between the different owners of Unit 1 and (ii) among ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇, ▇ ▇▇▇ ▇ ▇▇ ▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Plant. The Debtors will regularly consult with the Ad Hoc Noteholder Group, the Mansfield Certificateholders Group and the Indenture Trustee with respect to operation of the ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Plant, any material expenditures or repairs with respect to the ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Plant, any material issues with respect to sale of the output of the ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Plant, and associated regulatory issues, and will provide reasonable advance notice to the Owner Trustee and Owner Participants with respect to the foregoing material expenditures and material issues. With respect to any action or decision that reasonably can be expected to have a material effect on Unit 1 or the Ancillary Facilities (as defined in the Participation Agreement), to the extent reasonably practicable, the Debtors shall provide reasonable advance notice to the Ad Hoc Noteholder Group and the Mansfield Parties and consult with the Mansfield Certificateholders Group and the Indenture Trustee prior to taking such action or making such decision. Notwithstanding anything in this Stipulation and Protocol to the contrary, including the obligations relating to the operation and maintenance of Unit 1 in this paragraph 31, the Debtors shall not be required to repair Unit 1 beyond such repairs that the Debtors determine are commercially reasonable in consultation with the Ad Hoc Noteholder Group and the Mansfield Certificateholders Group and the Indenture Trustee.

The Parties agree to negotiate in good faith to draft and execute an agreement, or amendment to the Operative Documents, that will, from and after the date upon which the Bankruptcy Court enters an order approving the rejection of the Rejected Operative Documents (or from such earlier date such amendment becomes effective), maintain the status of Mansfield 2007 Trusts A-F as passive investors (as determined by Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (“FERC”) in FirstEnergy Generation Corp., 119 FERC ¶ 61,171 (2007)) (“Status Quo Agreement”).

The Debtors may also make any submissions to PJM Interconnection, L.L.C. (“PJM”), as necessary, and the Mansfield Parties reserve the right to object to any such submissions to FERC and PJM. With respect to

Execution Version

such submissions, the Mansfield Parties further reserve all of their rights under the Federal Power Act and other applicable law. The Mansfield Certificateholders Group may make such submissions to FERC or PJM as necessary to facilitate transfer of ownership or control over the Undivided Interest, and the Debtors, Indenture Trustee, Owner Participants, and Owner Trustee reserve all of their rights under the Federal Power Act and other applicable law with respect to such filings.

The Parties agree to negotiate in good faith a consensual resolution of the Reserved Claims through the Amended Operating Agreement or otherwise. Alternatively, the Parties may agree to incorporate the Reserved Claims into the Mansfield Adversary Proceeding.

Subject to the terms of any Amended Operating Agreement and the provisions of paragraph 31(b), FG shall make commercially reasonable efforts to mitigate any shortfall in capacity caused by the ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Event in a manner that mitigates any capacity shortfall attributable to Unit 1 and any capacity shortfall attributable to Unit 2 in a comparable manner taking into account any operational differences between the Units at the time of such mitigation; provided that nothing herein prejudices any Party’s arguments, rights, claims or defenses with respect to liability for any capacity penalty asserted with respect to Unit 1.

Nothing in this paragraph 31 shall impair any Party’s rights under applicable insurance policies. To the extent the Debtors maintain an insurable interest and to the extent commercially available, the Debtors shall maintain and renew all existing insurance policies covering the ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Plant (including Unit 1).

32. Insurance. Without prejudice to any insured’s rights under the relevant insurance policies, and to the extent that they share a common interest in the recovery of insurance proceeds or as required by the relevant insurance policies, the Debtors shall agree to share promptly information with and consult with the other Parties regarding the resolution of any

Execution Version

insurance claims related to the ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Plant, including without limitation, as follows; provided, that nothing in this paragraph 32, including clauses (a) through (f) below, shall prejudice the rights of any insured under the applicable insurance policies:

Subject to applicable confidentiality obligations and privileges, and to the extent the Debtors and the Mansfield Parties share a common interest or as required by the relevant insurance policies, the Debtors shall provide to the Mansfield Parties: (i) any substantive communications with insurers, brokers, or claims adjusters (excluding non-substantive communications, such as those related to scheduling) about the damage arising from the ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Event, or the claims related thereto; (ii) regular updates on the progress of ▇▇▇▇▇ & ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Engineering Company’s assessment and analysis of the damage arising from the ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Event (including, without limitation, potential bodily injury claims), which shall include interim or preliminary assessments; (iii) to the extent it already exists or will be developed by the Debtors in response to the ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Event, material information relating to the replacement cost, repair cost, and actual cash value of any assets affected by the ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Event; (iv) Schedule A to the policy to which the Debtors tendered a claim and schedule of values for the ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Plant submitted to the insurers or broker under Clause W in 2007 and on every subsequent policy renewal; (v) the EIM primary policy, as well as any other policies that may respond to the ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Event. The Debtors shall regularly update these disclosures and acknowledge that the Mansfield Parties may seek additional information related to the insurance claim, including but not limited to information about how the coverages were underwritten in 2007 or subsequently renewed. The Debtors will consider any such additional requests in good faith.

The Debtors and the Mansfield Parties shall confer with respect to any election under applicable insurance policies with respect to the method of valuation to be applied to the insurance claim (including Conditions - Section AE.6 and Schedule A of the primary policy), and shall work in good faith to reach agreement on any such election.

Notwithstanding any other provision of this Stipulation and Protocol, including, without limitation, any provision relating to the operation or transfer of ▇▇▇▇ ▇, the Debtors and the Mansfield Parties reserve all rights under any applicable insurance policies, including all rights with respect to (i) any election under such policies concerning the method of valuing claims under any policy, including, without limitation, the Parties’ respective asserted rights to make such election with respect to all property that forms the basis of the insurance claim, (ii) challenging any Party’s claimed right to make such an election or the actual election, and (iii) the use and allocation of any proceeds that the insurer may pay under any insurance policies.

The Debtors and the Mansfield Parties acknowledge that costs have been incurred and will continue to be incurred by the Debtors in connection with the ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Event, including costs relating to Unit 1 and/or the Ancillary Facilities that could be covered under the applicable insurance policies and payable to the Mansfield Parties. The Debtors, in consultation with the Ad Hoc Noteholder Group, and the Mansfield Parties will negotiate in good faith with respect to the reimbursement, if any, of the Debtors by the Mansfield Parties or the insurers of any costs incurred by the Debtors with respect to Unit 1 and/or the Ancillary Facilities arising from the ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Event incurred without the Mansfield Parties’ consent, including, without limitation, costs incurred prior to the date of this Stipulation and Protocol (and, including, without limitation, costs incurred in the inspection and investigation of Unit 1 and/or the Ancillary Facilities following the ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Event); provided, that the Debtors shall regularly advise the Ad Hoc Noteholder Group and the Mansfield Parties of material costs incurred and to be incurred relating to Unit 1 and/or the Ancillary Facilities, including materials Debtors internally provide to management about restoration updates and spending (including those provided since the ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Event), and shall produce all relevant documents related to costs that have been or will be incurred that would be covered under the applicable insurance policies and payable to the the Mansfield Parties; and further provided, that the Debtors shall consult with the Ad Hoc Noteholder Group and the Mansfield Parties as soon as reasonably practicable before making expenditures in the amount of $250,000 or more (with the Debtors reserving the right to make the expenditure in any event subject to the Mansfield Parties’ corresponding right to object to any such reimbursement). Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this provision shall be construed to impose on the Debtors any obligation that they do not already have to incur any costs whatsoever with respect to Unit 1 and/or the Ancillary Facilities arising from the ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Event. Further, the Debtors and the Mansfield Parties reserve all rights under the applicable insurance policies, Mansfield Facility Agreements, and applicable law, including, without limitation, the Mansfield Parties’ claimed right to decline to reimburse any costs incurred by the Debtors without the consent of the Mansfield Parties, and the Debtors’ claimed right to seek reimbursement from the Mansfield Parties or the insurers of any costs incurred for the benefit of the Mansfield Parties.

The Debtors, in consultation with the Ad Hoc Noteholder Group, and the Mansfield Parties shall work in good faith to consensually resolve any disputes relating to (i) insurance claims and (ii) use or allocation of insurance proceeds arising from the ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Event. To the extent any such disputes cannot be consensually resolved, the Debtors, the Mansfield Parties or any other party with requisite standing may file a motion or commence an adversary proceeding with the Bankruptcy Court requesting relief with respect to the applicable insurance dispute. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this provision or in this paragraph 32 shall be construed to limit in any manner the right of the Debtors and the Mansfield Parties to enforce the terms of the policies as against the insurers.

Execution Version

Notwithstanding anything in this paragraph 32, the Owner Trustee and Owner Participants reserve all of their rights with respect to insurance and any proceeds thereof under the applicable insurance policies and the Operative Documents.

33. Sale Process. With respect to any sale process for the assets constituting the ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Plant, the Debtors and the Supporting Parties, and the Indenture Trustee agree as follows:

The Debtors, the Supporting Parties and the Indenture Trustee shall cooperate in formulating a mutually agreeable sale process for the ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Facility.

Any motion, application, or proposed order filed with the Bankruptcy Court regarding the sale process for the ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Facility shall be in form and substance reasonably acceptable to the Supporting Parties and the Indenture Trustee.

The consent of the Mansfield Parties shall be required for any sale that includes Unit 1 of the ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Facility and/or the Ancillary Facilities. Such consent of the Mansfield Parties shall not be required for any sale that does not include Unit 1 of the ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Facility or any Ancillary Facilities, provided that such sale shall not impair in any way the Mansfield Parties’ insurance rights or any interests or rights held by the Mansfield Parties in or with respect to the Ancillary Facilities.

The Parties shall work in good faith to attempt to reach consensual resolution of any disputes relating to the sale process for the ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Plant and for an allocation of the sale proceeds therefrom.

34. Payment In Lieu of Postpetition Basic Rent and Supplemental Rent. The Debtors shall pay (i) the reasonable and documented hourly and monthly professional fees and disbursements of (A) the Indenture Trustee and (B) the following advisors to the Mansfield Certificateholders Group: O’Melveny & ▇▇▇▇▇ LLP, ▇▇▇▇▇▇ & ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, LLP, Guggenheim Securities, one local counsel and one technical advisor (with a scope of work and budget to be mutually acceptable to the Mansfield Certificateholders Group and the Debtors) and (ii) the Indenture Trustee compensation for all services rendered by it under the pass through trust agreement and the relevant indentures and shall reimburse the Indenture Trustee for all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses, disbursements, and advances incurred or made by it

Execution Version

thereunder. Such fees and disbursements shall be paid (x) in consideration of the agreements of the Indenture Trustee and Mansfield Certificateholders’ Group set forth herein, including, without limitation, the agreement to waive certain postpetition Basic Rent and Supplemental Rent claims against the Debtors as set forth in paragraph 1 above, or (y) as adequate protection in the event that the Mansfield Parties are determined to be secured creditors of the Debtors pursuant to the Mansfield Facility Agreements.

35. In consideration of MetLife’s agreement as Owner Participant to enter into this Stipulation and Protocol, including, without limitation, MetLife’s agreement to not object to the Rejection Motion and the relief requested therein, the Debtors shall pay the reasonable and documented monthly and hourly fees and expenses of Sidley Austin LLP, Crestview Capital Advisors and ▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ up to an aggregate cap of $1,500,000 for the twelve months following the Petition Date; provided, that notwithstanding the foregoing, the Debtors shall not pay any fees and expenses incurred by such advisors in connection with the assertion of any claims against the Debtors; provided, further¸ that application of the foregoing cap is not a waiver of any rights Met Life has (or the Debtors’ ability to contest such rights) under any applicable indemnity agreement.

36. In consideration of Owner Trustee’s agreement to enter into this Stipulation and Protocol, including, without limitation, Owner Trustee’s agreement to not object to the Rejection Motion and the relief requested therein, the Debtors shall pay the reasonable and documented hourly fees and expenses of the Owner Trustee and ▇▇▇▇▇▇ & ▇▇▇▇▇▇ LLP up to an aggregate cap of $250,000 for the twelve months following the Petition Date; provided, that notwithstanding the foregoing, the Debtors shall not pay any fees and expenses incurred by the Owner Trustee and such advisors in connection with the assertion of any claims against the Debtors; provided, further, that application of the foregoing cap is not a waiver of any rights the Owner Trustee has (or the Debtors’ ability to contest such rights) under any applicable indemnity agreement.

Execution Version

37. All of the Indenture Trustee’s agreements in this Stipulation and Protocol are specifically conditioned on not receiving a valid direction to the contrary from Holders of the requisite Fractional Undivided Interests of Certificates Outstanding (with each such capitalized terms in this sentence beginning with Holders being as defined in the PTTA) pursuant to sections 5.4 and 1.3(c) of the PTTA, such that the Indenture Trustee shall not be obligated to take or refrain from taking any action hereunder if and to the extent it receives a valid direction not to take or to refrain from taking such action.

38. For the avoidance of doubt, nothing in this Stipulation and Protocol or in the Process Support Agreement, including without limitation any consent to rejection of any Operative Documents or any submission of or consent to any regulatory filings, shall in any way prejudice the Parties’ positions or arguments relating to the characterization or executory nature of the Operative Documents, the applicability of the 502(b)(6) Cap, or any claims arising under the Operative Documents (including arising from the rejection thereof), or shall be used as evidence against any Party in any litigation or proceeding relating to such matters. The Parties reserve all rights as to claims and defenses with respect to the foregoing matters. For the further avoidance of doubt, in the event a Mansfield Facility Agreement is determined not to be a “true lease,” nothing herein shall impair in any way the secured parties’ interests in the collateral that secures the performance of FG’s obligations under such agreement.

39. Notwithstanding (a) any rejection of the Participation Agreements as provided in paragraph 1 hereof and (b) anything to the contrary contained in paragraphs 1 and 31 hereof, including the waiver of administrative claims for Supplemental Rent in paragraph 1, any claims

Execution Version

of the Owner Trustee and the Owner Participants arising under the indemnity provided in Section 9.1 of the Participation Agreement are not being waived and the Owner Trustee and the Owner Participant expressly reserve the right to assert such claims and the Debtors and all other parties reserve the right to contest the amount, validity and priority of such claims. For the avoidance of doubt, nothing in this paragraph shall be deemed to allow, disallow, or alter the priority or status of any claim or constitute an assumption of any obligations under Section 9.1 of the Participation Agreement by the Debtors.

IT IS SO ORDERED.

Exhibit 3

ESI Protocol

Execution Version

PRODUCTION FORMAT PROTOCOL

1.	PRODUCTION OF ELECTRONICALLY STORED INFORMATION (ESI)

Delivery of Document Productions. To maximize the security of information in transit, document productions shall be delivered on encrypted physical media or through secure file transfer protocol (“FTP”) or similar secure or encrypted electronic transmission. The producing Party shall transmit the encryption key, password, or other information necessary to access document productions to the receiving Party contemporaneously with sending the encrypted media via a separate cover letter or by e-mail.

Load files. Except where noted in section (M) below, all ESI is to be produced in electronic format, with file suitable for loading into a compatible litigation support review database. All productions will include both image and metadata load files, as described below in Paragraph III, Load File Format.

Metadata Fields and Processing. Each of the metadata and coding fields set forth in Paragraph IV that can be extracted from a document shall be produced for that document. The Parties are not obligated to populate manually any of the fields in Paragraph IV if such fields cannot be extracted from a document, with the exception of the CUSTODIAN, PRODVOLID, and TIMEZONE, which shall be populated by the producing Party .

D.	System Files. Common system and program files need not be processed, reviewed or produced. Upon request, the producing Party shall provide an index of the system files excluded from production and the criteria (e.g., non-human readable file, etc.) for not processing the files.

E.	Email. Email shall be collected in a manner that maintains reliable email metadata and structure. Whenever possible, email shall be collected from the producing Party’s email store or server. Metadata and “header fields” shall be extracted from email messages.

F.	De-Duplication. Removal of duplicate documents shall only be done on exact duplicate documents (based on MD5 or SHA- 1 hash values at the document level). De-duplication will be performed globally across data sets.

Thread Suppression. The Parties may also use email thread suppression to reduce duplicative production of email threads by producing the most recent email containing the thread of emails, as well as all attachments within the thread. If an email thread splits into two separate threads, then both threads shall be included in the production. If an email has an attachment and subsequent replies omit that attachment, then the original email with the attachment shall also be included in the production.

Execution Version

TIFFs. Single-page Group IV TIFF images shall be provided using at least 300 DPI print setting. Each image shall have a unique file name, which is the ▇▇▇▇▇/control number of the document. Original document orientation shall be maintained (i.e., portrait to portrait and landscape to landscape). TIFFs will show any and all text and images which would be visible to the reader using the native software that created the document. Documents containing color need not be produced initially in color. However, if an original document contains color necessary to understand the meaning or content of the document, the producing Party will honor reasonable requests for a color image of the document.

Microsoft “Auto” Feature and Macros. Microsoft Office applications, including Word, Excel and PowerPoint, may contain “auto” feature settings that would cause a document date or similar information within the document, file names, file paths, etc. to automatically update when processed. If the producing Party identifies “auto date”, “auto file name”, “auto file path” or similar features within the documents that would deliver inaccurate information for how the document was used in the ordinary course of business, a TIFF image branded with the words “Auto Date”, “Auto File Name”, “Auto File Path” or similar words that describe the “auto” feature shall be produced. Similarly, if a document contains a “macro”, the document shall be branded with the word “Macro”.

Embedded Objects. Non-image files embedded within documents, such as spreadsheets within a PowerPoint, will be extracted as separate documents and treated like attachments to the document in which they were embedded. Graphic objects embedded within documents or emails, such as logos, signature blocks, and backgrounds shall not be extracted as separate documents.

K.	Compressed Files. Compression file types (e.g., .CAB, .GZ, .TAR, .Z, .ZIP) shall be decompressed in a manner that ensures a container within a container is decompressed into the lowest uncompressed element resulting in individual files. The container file itself shall not be produced.

Text Files. For each document, a single text file shall be provided along with the image files and metadata. The text file name shall be the same as the ▇▇▇▇▇/control number of the first page of the document. Electronic text must be extracted directly from the native electronic file unless the document was redacted, an image file, or a physical file. In these instances a text file created using OCR will be produced in lieu of extracted text.

M.	Redaction. If a file that originates in ESI needs to be redacted before production, the file will be rendered in TIFF, and the TIFF will be redacted and produced. The producing Party will provide searchable text for those portions of the document that have not been redacted.

Native Files. Various types of files, including but not limited to spreadsheets, PowerPoint files, media files, documents with embedded media files, documents with “macros”, etc., lose significant information and meaning when produced as an image. Unless redacted or for some other good cause, these types of documents shall be produced as a native document file. Any files that are produced in native format shall be produced with a ▇▇▇▇▇-numbered TIFF image slip-sheet stating the document has been produced in native format, as well as all extracted text and applicable metadata set forth in Paragraph IV.

Execution Version

Other ESI that is Impractical to Produce in Traditional Formats (aka, Structured Data). The Parties understand and acknowledge that certain categories of ESI are structurally complex and do not lend themselves to production as native format or other traditional formats. To the extent a response to discovery requires production of discoverable electronic information contained in a database, the Parties agree to confer to define appropriate parameters for querying the database for discoverable information and generating a report in a reasonably usable and exportable electronic file (e.g., Excel, CSV or SQL format).

Endorsements. The producing Party will brand all TIFF images in the lower right-hand corner with the corresponding ▇▇▇▇▇/control numbers, using a consistent font type and size. The ▇▇▇▇▇ number must not obscure any part of the underlying data. The producing Party will brand all TIFF images in the lower left-hand corner with all confidentiality designations, as needed, in accordance with confidentiality definitions as agreed to by the Parties.

Q.	Claw-Back Procedure. Any documents recalled due to a mutually agreed upon clawback provision or process shall have a specific protocol followed to ensure all copies of each such document are appropriately removed from the review system of the opposite Party.

Execution Version

2.	PRODUCTION OF PHYSICALLY STORED INFORMATION (HARD COPY DOCUMENTS)

TIFFs. Hard copy paper documents shall be scanned as single page, Group IV compression TIFF images using a print setting of at least 300 dots per inch (DPI). Each image shall have a unique file name, which is the ▇▇▇▇▇/control number of the document. Original document orientation shall be maintained (i.e., portrait to portrait and landscape to landscape).

B.	Metadata Fields. The following information shall be produced for hard copy documents and provided in the data load file at the same time that the TIFF images and the Optical Character Recognition (OCR)-acquired text files are produced. Each metadata field shall be labeled as listed below:


FIELD NAME	DESCRIPTION	EXAMPLE / FORMAT

PRODBEGBATES	The production ▇▇▇▇▇ number associated with the first page of a document.	ABC0000001

PRODENDBATES	The production ▇▇▇▇▇ number associated with last page of a document.	ABC0000003

TEXTLINK	The path to the full extracted OR OCR text of the document. Text files should be named per control number or ▇▇▇▇▇ number if the document is produced.	\TEXT\ABC000001.txt

C.	OCR Acquired Text Files. When subjecting physical documents to an OCR process, the settings of the OCR software shall maximize text quality over process speed. Any settings such as “auto-skewing”, “auto-rotation” and the like should be turned on when documents are run through the process.

D.	Database Load Files/Cross-Reference Files. Documents shall be provided with (a) a delimited metadata file (.dat or .txt) and (b) an image load file (.opt), as detailed in Paragraph IV.

Execution Version

Unitizing of Documents. In scanning paper documents, distinct documents shall not be merged into a single record, and single documents shall not be split into multiple records (i.e., paper documents should be logically unitized). In the case of an organized compilation of separate documents - for example, a binder containing several separate documents behind numbered tabs - the document behind each tab should be scanned separately, but the relationship among the documents in the binder should be reflected in proper coding of the beginning and ending document and attachment fields. The Parties will make their best efforts to unitize documents correctly.

Execution Version

3.	REQUESTED LOAD FILE FORMAT FOR ESI

a)	Delimited Text File: A delimited text file (.DAT or .CSV) containing the fields listed in Paragraph III should be provided. The delimiters for the file can be Concordance defaults, but defined delimiters are acceptable:

Comma - ASCII character 20 ( )

Quote - ASCII character 254 (þ)

Newline - ASCII character 174 (®)

b)	Image Cross-Reference File (Load File): The Image cross-reference file (.OPT) is a comma delimited file consisting of six fields per line. There must be a line in the cross-reference file for every image in the database. The format for the file is as follows:

ImageID,VolumeLabel,ImageFilePath,DocumentBreak,PageCount

ImageID: The unique designation used to identify an image. This should be the ▇▇▇▇▇ number of the document.

VolumeLabel: The name of the volume.

ImageFilePath: The full path to the image file.

DocumentBreak: If this field contains the letter “Y,” then this is the first page of a document. If this field is blank, then this page is not the first page of a document.
