or another mutually acceptable time and location, on the date that is fifteen
(15) Business Days following the date on which the last of the conditions
precedent to Closing set forth in Article VII of this Agreement have been either
satisfied or waived by the Party for whose benefit such conditions precedent
exist or such other date as the Parties may mutually agree. The date of Closing
is hereinafter called the "Closing Date." The Closing shall be effective for all
purposes as of 12:01 a.m. on the Closing Date.

3.2 Payment of Purchase Price. Upon the terms and subject to the
satisfaction of the conditions contained in this Agreement, in consideration of
the aforesaid sale, assignment, conveyance, transfer and delivery of the
Purchased Assets, Buyer will pay or cause to be paid to Seller at the Closing an
aggregate amount of Forty-Three Million United States Dollars(U.S.
$43,000,000.00) (the "Purchase Price") plus or minus any adjustments pursuant to
the provisions of this Agreement, by wire transfer of immediately available
funds denominated in U.S. dollars or by such other means as are agreed upon by
Seller and Buyer.

3.3 Adjustment to Purchase Price (a) Subject to Section 3.3(b), at the
Closing, the Purchase Price shall be adjusted, without duplication, to account
for the items set forth in this Section 3.3(a):

(i) The Purchase Price shall be increased or
decreased, as applicable, to reflect the difference between the book
value of all Inventories as of the Closing Date and the book value of
all Inventories as of June 30, 1998 reflected on Schedule 3.3(a)(i).

(ii) The Purchase Price shall be adjusted to account
for the items prorated as of the Closing Date pursuant to Section 3.5.

(iii) The Purchase Price shall be increased by the
amount expended, or for which liabilities are incurred, by Seller
between the date hereof and the Closing Date for capital additions to
or replacements of property, plant and equipment included in the d

Purchase Assets and other expenditures or repairs on property, plant
and equipment included in the Purchased Assets that would be capitalized by
Seller in accordance with normal accounting policies of Seller and its
Affiliates (together, "Capital Expenditures"), which are not described on

Agreement by any Governmental Authority (subject to Buyer's right
reasonably to direct Seller to contest such mandates by appropriate
proceedings at Buyer's expense and provided there is no adverse impact on
the Purchased Assets); or (B) do not fall within category (A) above but do
not exceed in the aggregate $2 million; or (C) are approved in writing by
Buyer.

(b) At least ten (10) Business Days prior to the Closing Date,
Seller shall prepare and deliver to Buyer an estimated closing statement (the
"Estimated Closing Statement") that shall set forth Seller's best estimate of
all estimated adjustments to the Purchase Price required by Section 3.3(a) (the
"Estimated Adjustment"). Within five (5) Business Days following the delivery of
the Estimated Closing Statement by Seller to Buyer, Buyer may object in good
faith to the Estimated Adjustment in writing. If Buyer objects to the Estimated
Adjustment, the Parties shall attempt to resolve their differences by
negotiation. If the Parties are unable to do so within three (3) Business Days
prior to the Closing Date (or if Buyer does not object to the Estimated
Adjustment), the Purchase Price shall be adjusted (the "Closing Adjustment") for
the Closing by the amount of the Estimated Adjustment not in dispute. The
disputed portion shall be paid as a Post-Closing Adjustment to the extent
required by Section 3.3(c).

(c) Within sixty (60) days following the Closing Date, Seller
shall prepare and deliver to Buyer a final closing statement (the "Post-Closing
Statement") that shall set forth Seller's best estimate of all adjustments to
the Purchase Price required by Section 3.3(a) (the "Post-Closing Adjustment").
The Post-Closing Statement shall be prepared using the same accounting
principles, policies and methods as Seller has historically used in connection
with the calculation of the items reflected on such Post-Closing Statement.
Without limiting the foregoing, the Closing Date Inventory shall be calculated
using the same accounting policies and practices which were used in preparing
Schedule 3.3(a)(i). Within thirty (30) days following the delivery of the
Post-Closing Statement by Seller to Buyer, Buyer may object to the Post-Closing
Adjustment in writing. Seller agrees to cooperate with Buyer to provide Buyer
and Buyer's Representatives information used to prepare the Post-Closing
Statement and information relating thereto. If Buyer objects to the Post-Closing
Adjustment, the Parties shall attempt to resolve such dispute by negotiation. If
the Parties are unable to resolve such dispute within thirty (30) days of any
objection by Buyer, the Parties shall appoint the Independent

Accounting Firm, which shall, at Seller's and Buyer's joint expense, review the
Post-Closing Adjustment and determine the appropriate adjustment to the Purchase
Price, if any, within thirty (30) days of such appointment. The Parties agree to
cooperate with the Independent Accounting Firm and provide it with such
information as it reasonably requests to enable it to make such determination.
The finding of such Independent Accounting Firm shall be binding on the Parties
hereto. Upon determination of the appropriate adjustment by agreement of the
Parties or by binding determination of the Independent Accounting Firm, if the
Post-Closing Adjustment is more or less than the Closing Adjustment, the Party
owing the difference shall deliver such difference to the other Party no later
than two (2) Business Days after such determination, in immediately available
funds or in any other manner as reasonably requested by the payee.

Seller shall report the transactions contemplated by this Agreement for federal
Tax and all other Tax purposes in a manner consistent with any such agreed to
allocation determined pursuant to this Section 3.4. Each of Buyer and Seller
agrees to provide the other promptly with any information required to complete

assistance in the event of an examination, audit or other proceeding regarding

normally prorated, including those listed below (but not including Income
Taxes), relating to the business and operation of the Purchased Assets shall be

other appropriate period) for which actual Taxes or other amounts paid are
available. Such prorated Taxes or other amounts shall be re-prorated and paid to
the appropriate Party within sixty (60) days of the date that the previously
unavailable actual figures become available. The prorations shall be based on
the number of days in a year or other appropriate period (i) before the Closing
Date and (ii) including and after the Closing Date. Seller and Buyer agree to

4.3 Consents and Approvals; No Violation. (a) Except as set forth in
Schedule 4.3(a), and subject to obtaining Seller's Required Regulatory

conflict with or result in any breach of any provision of the Certificate of
Incorporation or Bylaws of Seller, (ii) result in a default (or give rise to any

its material obligations hereunder and (ii) such consents, approvals, filings or
notices which become applicable to Seller or the Purchased Assets as a result of

acceleration or result in the creation or imposition of any lien, security
interest or Encumbrance on the Real Property Interests. Seller has delivered to
Buyer true, correct and complete copies of each of the material Real Property

Agreement (i) constitutes a legal, valid and binding obligation of Seller and,
to Seller's Knowledge, constitutes a valid and binding obligation of the other
parties thereto, and (ii) may be transferred to Buyer pursuant to this Agreement
without the consent of the other parties thereto and will continue in full force

legality, validity or binding nature, or inability to transfer, would not,
individually or in the aggregate, create a Material Adverse Effect.

(c) Except as set forth in Schedule 4.12(c), there is not,
under Seller's Agreements, any default or event which, with notice or lapse of

not, individually or in the aggregate, create a Material Adverse Effect. Except

it is in violation of any such Permits, except notifications of violations which

THE PURCHASED ASSETS OR THE SUITABILITY OF THE PURCHASED ASSETS FOR OPERATION AS
A POWER PLANT AND NO SCHEDULE OR EXHIBIT TO THIS AGREEMENT, NOR ANY OTHER
MATERIAL OR INFORMATION PROVIDED BY OR COMMUNICATIONS MADE BY SELLER OR ITS
REPRESENTATIVES, OR BY ANY BROKER OR INVESTMENT BANKER, WILL CAUSE OR CREATE ANY

(vii) Except as otherwise provided herein, enter into
any written or oral contract, agreement, commitment or arrangement with
respect to any of the proscribed transactions set forth in the
foregoing paragraphs (i) through (vi).

6.2 Access to Information.

(a) Between the date of this Agreement and the Closing Date,
Seller will, at reasonable times and upon reasonable notice: (i) give Buyer and
its Representatives reasonable access to its managerial personnel and to all
books, records, plans, equipment, offices and other facilities and properties
constituting the Purchased Assets; (ii) furnish Buyer with such financial and
operating data and other information with respect to the Purchased Assets as
Buyer may from time to time reasonably request, and permit Buyer to make such
reasonable Inspections thereof as Buyer may request; (iii) furnish Buyer at its
request a copy of each material report, schedule or other document filed by
Seller or any of its Affiliates with respect to the Purchased Assets with the
SEC, FERC, PaPUC, PaDEP or any other Governmental Authority; and (iv) furnish
Buyer with all such other information as shall be reasonably necessary to enable
Buyer to verify the accuracy of the representations and warranties of Seller
contained in this Agreement; provided, however, that (A) any such inspections
and investigations shall be conducted in such a manner as not to interfere
unreasonably with the operation of the Purchased Assets, (B) Seller shall not be
required to take any action which would constitute a waiver of the
attorney-client privilege, and (C) Seller need not supply Buyer with any
information which Seller is under a legal or contractual obligation not to
supply. Notwithstanding anything in this Section 6.2 to the contrary, Seller
will only furnish or provide such access to Transferring Employee Records and
will not furnish or provide access to other employee personnel records or
medical information unless required by law or specifically authorized by the
affected employee, nor shall Buyer have the right prior to the Closing to
administer to any of Seller's employees any skills, aptitudes, psychological

profile, or other employment related test. Buyer shall not have the right to
perform or conduct any environmental sampling or testing at, in, on, or
underneath the Purchased Assets.

(b) Each Party shall, and shall use its best efforts to cause
its Representatives to, (i) keep all Proprietary Information of the other Party
confidential and not to disclose or reveal any such Proprietary Information to
any person other than such Party's Representatives and (ii) not use such
Proprietary Information other than in connection with the consummation of the
transactions contemplated hereby. After the Closing Date, any Proprietary
Information to the extent related to the Purchased Assets shall no longer be
subject to the restrictions set forth herein. The obligations of the Parties
under this Section 6.2(b) shall be in full force and effect for three (3) years
from the date hereof and will survive the termination of this Agreement, the
discharge of all other obligations owed by the Parties to each other and the
closing of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

(c) For a period of seven (7) years after the Closing Date (or
such longer period as may be required by applicable law or Section 6.8(e)), each
Party and its Representatives shall have reasonable access to all of the books
and records of the Purchased Assets, including all Transferring Employee Records
in the possession of the other Party to the extent that such access may
reasonably be required by such Party in connection with the Assumed Liabilities
or the Excluded Liabilities, or other matters relating to or affected by the
operation of the Purchased Assets. Such access shall be afforded by the Party in
possession of any such books and records upon receipt of reasonable advance
written notice and during normal business hours. The Party exercising this right
of access shall be solely responsible for any costs or expenses incurred by it
or the other Party with respect to such access pursuant to this Section 6.2(c).
If the Party in possession of such books and records shall desire to dispose of
any books and records upon or prior to the expiration of such seven-year period
(or any such longer period), such Party shall, prior to such disposition, give
the other Party a reasonable opportunity at such other Party's reasonable
expense, to segregate and remove such books and records as such other Party may
select.

(d) Notwithstanding the terms of Section 6.2(b) above, the
Parties agree that prior to the Closing Buyer may reveal or disclose Proprietary
Information to any other Persons in connection with Buyer's financing or risk
management if reasonably necessary of its purchase of the Purchased Assets or
any equity participation in Buyer's purchase of the Purchased Assets (provided
that such Persons agree in writing to maintain the confidentiality of the
Proprietary Information in accordance with this Agreement).

(e) Upon the other Party's prior written approval (which will
not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), either Party may provide Proprietary
Information of the other Party to the PaPUC, the SEC, the FERC or any other
Governmental Authority with jurisdiction or any stock exchange, as may be
necessary to obtain Seller's Required Regulatory Approvals, or Buyer Required
Regulatory Approvals, respectively, or to comply generally with any relevant law
or regulation. The disclosing Party will seek confidential treatment for the
Proprietary Information provided to any Governmental Authority and the
disclosing Party will notify the other Party as far in advance as is practicable
of its intention to release to any Governmental Authority any Proprietary
Information.

(f) Except as specifically provided herein or in the
Confidentiality Agreement, nothing in this Section shall impair or modify any of
the rights or obligations of Buyer or its Affiliates under the Confidentiality
Agreement, all of which remain in effect until termination of such agreement in
accordance with its terms.

(g) Except as may be permitted in the Confidentiality
Agreement, Buyer agrees that, prior to the Closing Date, it will not contact any
vendors, suppliers, employees, or other contracting parties of Seller or its
Affiliates with respect to any aspect of the Purchased Assets or the
transactions contemplated hereby, without the prior written consent of Seller,
which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld.

(h) Except as required by law, negotiation or legal process,
unless otherwise agreed to in writing by the Buyer, which shall not be
unreasonably withheld, for a period commencing on the Closing Date and
terminating three years after such date the Seller shall keep (i) all
Proprietary Information confidential and not disclose or reveal any Proprietary
Information to any Person other than its Representatives who are actively and
directly participating in the transactions contemplated hereby or who otherwise
need to know the Proprietary Information for such purpose and to cause those
Persons to observe the terms of this Section 6.2(h) and, (ii) not to use
Proprietary Information for any purpose other than consistent with the terms of
this Agreement. The Seller shall continue to hold all Proprietary Information
according to the same internal security procedures and with the same degree of
care regarding its secrecy and confidentiality as currently applicable thereto.
The Seller shall notify the Buyer of any unauthorized disclosure to third
parties that it discovers, and shall endeavor to prevent any further such
disclosures. The Seller shall be responsible for any breach of the terms of this
Section 6.2(h) by the Seller or its Representatives.

After the Closing Date, in the event that the Seller is
requested pursuant to, or required by, applicable law or regulation or by legal
process to disclose any Proprietary Information, or any other information
concerning the Purchased Assets, or the transactions contemplated hereby, the

Seller shall provide the Buyer with prompt notice of such request or requirement
in order to enable the Buyer to seek an appropriate protective order or other
remedy, to consult with the Seller with respect to taking steps to resist or
narrow the scope of such request or legal process, or to waive compliance, in
whole or in part, with the terms of this Section 6.2(h). The Seller agrees not
to oppose any action by the Buyer to obtain a protective order or other
appropriate remedy after the Closing Date. In the event that no such protective
order or other remedy is obtained, or that the Buyer waives compliance with the
terms of this Section 6.2(h), the Seller shall furnish only that portion of the
Proprietary Information which the Seller is advised by counsel is legally
required. In any such event the Seller shall use its reasonable best efforts to
ensure that all Proprietary Information and other information that is so
disclosed will be accorded confidential treatment.

(i) Buyer shall be entitled to inspect, in accordance with
this Section 6.2(i), all of the Purchased Assets located adjacent to any Point
of Interconnection (as defined in the Interconnection Agreement), as shown in
Schedule A to the Interconnection Agreement, to verify and/or determine the
accuracy of the data, drawings, and records described in such Schedule. The
Parties shall cooperate to schedule Buyer's inspection at the Plant so that any
interference with the operation of the Plant is minimized, to the extent
reasonably feasible, and so that Buyer may complete its inspections of the Plant
within thirty (30) working days of commencement of inspections and within two
(2) months after the execution of this Agreement.

(ii) Seller shall provide, or shall cause to be provided, to
Buyer, access to the Plant at the times scheduled for the inspections. Seller
shall provide qualified engineering, operations, and maintenance personnel to
escort Buyer's personnel and to assist Buyer's personnel in conducting the
inspections. Seller and Buyer shall each bear their own costs of participating
in the inspections. At a mutually convenient time not more than one (1) month
after Buyer has completed its inspections, the Parties shall meet to discuss
whether, as a result of the inspections, it is appropriate to modify Schedule A
to the Interconnection Agreement to portray more accurately the Points of
Interconnection. Any modification to any portion of Schedule A of the
Interconnection Agreement to which the Parties agree shall thereafter be deemed
part of Schedule A of the Interconnection Agreement for all purposes under the
Interconnection Agreement.

6.3. Public Statements. Subject to the requirements imposed by any
applicable law or any Governmental Authority or stock exchange, prior to the
Closing Date, no press release or other public announcement or public statement
or comment in response to any inquiry relating to the transactions contemplated
by this Agreement shall be issued or made by any Party without the prior

approval of the other Parties (which approval shall not be unreasonably
withheld). The Parties agree to cooperate in preparing such announcements.

6.4. Expenses. Except to the extent specifically provided herein,
whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby are consummated, all costs
and expenses incurred in connection with this Agreement and the transactions
contemplated hereby shall be borne by the Party incurring such costs and
expenses. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, Buyer will be
responsible for (a) all costs and expenses associated with the obtaining of any
title insurance policy and all endorsements thereto that Buyer elects to obtain
and (b) all filing fees under the HSR Act.

6.5. Further Assurances.

(a) Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, each
of the Parties hereto shall use its best efforts to take, or cause to be taken,
all actions, and to do, or cause to be done, all things necessary, proper or
advisable under applicable laws and regulations to consummate and make effective
the purchase and sale of the Purchased Assets pursuant to this Agreement and the
assumption of the Assumed Liabilities, including without limitation using its
best efforts to ensure satisfaction of the conditions precedent to each Party's
obligations hereunder, including obtaining all necessary consents, approvals,
and authorizations of third parties and Governmental Authorities required to be
obtained in order to consummate the transactions hereunder, and to effectuate a
transfer of the Transferable Permits to Buyer. Buyer agrees to use Commercially
Reasonable Effort to perform all conditions required of Buyer in connection with
Seller's Required Regulatory Approvals. Neither of the Parties hereto shall,
without prior written consent of the other Party, take or fail to take any
action, which might reasonably be expected to prevent or materially impede,
interfere with or delay the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. From
time to time after the date of Closing, without further consideration, Seller
will, at Buyer's expense, execute and deliver such documents to Buyer as Buyer
may reasonably request in order to more effectively vest in Buyer the Seller's
title to the Purchased Assets subject to Permitted Encumbrances. From time to
time after the date of Closing, Buyer will, at Seller's expense, execute and
deliver such documents to the Seller as Seller may reasonably request in order
to more effectively consummate the transfer to Seller of rights in the Purchased
Assets pursuant to this Agreement and the Sublicense Agreements.

(b) Buyer agrees that prior to the Closing Date, neither Buyer nor any
of its Affiliates will enter into any other contract to acquire, nor acquire,
electric generation facilities or uncommitted generation capacity located in the

control area recognized by the North American Electric Reliability Council as
the PJM Control Area if the proposed acquisition of such additional electric
generation facilities or uncommitted generation capacity might reasonably be
expected to prevent or materially impede, interfere with or delay the
transactions contemplated by this Agreement. Buyer shall give Seller reasonable
advance notice (and in any event not less than 30 days) before the entering into
of contracts to acquire or acquires any electric generation facility or
uncommitted generation capacity located in the said PJM Control Area.

(c) In the event that any Purchased Asset shall not have been
conveyed to Buyer at the Closing, Seller shall, subject to Section 6.5(d), use
Commercially Reasonable Efforts to convey such asset to Buyer as promptly as is
practicable after the Closing. In the event that any Real Property Interests
shall not have been granted by Buyer to Seller at the Closing, Buyer shall use
Commercially Reasonable Efforts to grant such Real Property Interests to Seller
as promptly as is practicable after the Closing.

(d) To the extent that Seller's rights under any Seller's
Agreement or Real Property Agreement may not be assigned without the consent of
another Person which consent has not been obtained by the Closing Date, this
Agreement shall not constitute an agreement to assign or deliver the same, if an
attempted assignment or delivery would constitute a breach thereof or be
unlawful. Seller and Buyer agree that if any consent to an assignment or
delivery of any material Seller's Agreement or Real Property Agreement shall not
be obtained or if any attempted assignment would be ineffective or would impair
Buyer's rights and obligations under the material Seller's Agreement or Real
Property Interest in question, so that Buyer would not in effect acquire the
benefit of all such rights and obligations, Seller, at Buyer's option and to the
maximum extent permitted by law and such material Seller's Agreement or Real
Property Agreement, shall, after the Closing Date, appoint Buyer to be Seller's
agent with respect to such material Seller's Agreement or Real Property
Agreement, or, to the maximum extent permitted by law and such material Seller's
Agreement or Real Property Agreement, enter into such reasonable arrangements
with Buyer or take such other actions as are necessary to provide Buyer with the
same or substantially similar rights and obligations of such material Seller's
Agreement or Real Property Agreement as Buyer may reasonably request. Seller and
Buyer shall cooperate and shall each use Commercially Reasonable Efforts prior
to and after the Closing Date to obtain an assignment of such material Seller's
Agreement or Real Property Agreements to Buyer.

(e) To the extent that Seller's rights under any warranty or
guaranty described in Section 2.1(g) may not be assigned without the consent of
another Person, which consent has not been obtained by the Closing Date, this
Agreement shall not constitute an agreement to assign same, if an attempted

assignment would constitute a breach thereof, or be unlawful. Seller and Buyer
agree that if any consent to an assignment of any such warranty or guaranty
shall not be obtained, or if any attempted assignment would be ineffective or
would impair Buyer's rights and obligations under the warranty or guaranty in
question, so that Buyer would not in effect acquire the benefit of all such
rights and obligations, Seller, at Buyer's expense, shall use Commercially
Reasonable Efforts, to the extent permitted by law and such warranty or
guaranty, to enforce such warranty or guaranty for the benefit of Buyer so as to
provide Buyer to the maximum extent possible with the benefits and obligations
of such warranty or guaranty.

6.6 Consents and Approvals.

(a) As promptly as possible after the date of this Agreement,
Seller and Buyer, as applicable, shall each file or cause to be filed with the
Federal Trade Commission and the United States Department of Justice any
notifications required to be filed under the HSR Act and the rules and
regulations promulgated thereunder with respect to the transactions contemplated
hereby. The Parties shall use their respective best efforts to respond promptly
to any requests for additional information made by either of such agencies, and
to cause the waiting periods under the HSR Act to terminate or expire at the
earliest possible date after the date of filing. Buyer will pay all filing fees
under the HSR Act but each Party will bear its own costs of the preparation of
any filing.

(b) As promptly as possible after the date of this Agreement,
Buyer shall file with the FERC an application requesting Exempt Wholesale
Generator status for Buyer, which filing may be made individually by Buyer or
jointly with Seller in conjunction with other filings to be made with the FERC
under this Agreement, as reasonably determined by the Parties. Prior to Buyer's
submission of that application with the FERC, Buyer shall submit such
application to Seller for review and comment and Buyer shall incorporate into
the application any revisions reasonably requested by Seller. Buyer shall be
solely responsible for the cost of preparing and filing this application, any
petition(s) for rehearing, or any re-application. If Buyer's initial application
for Exempt Wholesale Generator status is rejected by the FERC, Buyer agrees to
petition the FERC for rehearing and/or to re-submit an application with the
FERC, as reasonably required by Seller, provided that in either case the action
directed by Seller does not create a Buyer Material Adverse Effect.

(c) As promptly as possible after the date of this Agreement,
Buyer shall file with the FERC an application requesting authorization under
Section 205 of the Federal Power Act to sell electric generating capacity and
energy, but not other services, including, without limitation, ancillary

services, at wholesale at market-based rates, which filing may be made
individually by Buyer or jointly with Seller in conjunction with other filings
to be made with the FERC under this Agreement, as reasonably determined by the
Parties. Prior to the filing of that application with the FERC, Buyer shall
submit such application to Seller for review and comment and Buyer shall
incorporate into the application any revisions reasonably requested by Seller.
Buyer shall be solely responsible for the cost of preparing and filing this
application, any petition(s) for rehearing, or any reapplication. If Buyer's
initial application for market-based rate authorization results in a FERC
request for additional information or is rejected by the FERC, Buyer shall
provide that information promptly, to petition the FERC for rehearing and/or to
re-submit an application with the FERC, as reasonably required by Seller,
provided that Seller shall have a reasonable opportunity to make changes to such
a petition or re-submission application and, provided further, that the action
directed by Seller does not create a Buyer Material Adverse Effect.

(d) As promptly as possible, and in any case within sixty (60)
days, after the date of this Agreement, Seller and Buyer, as applicable, shall
file with the PaPUC, the FERC and any other Governmental Authority, and make any
other filings required to be made with respect to the transactions contemplated
hereby. The Parties shall respond promptly to any requests for additional
information made by such agencies, and use their respective best efforts to
cause regulatory approval to be obtained at the earliest possible date after the
date of filing. Each Party will bear its own costs of the preparation of any
such filing.

(e) Without limitation of Section 10.11, Seller and Buyer
shall cooperate with each other and promptly prepare and file notifications
with, and request Tax clearances from, state and local taxing authorities in
jurisdictions in which a portion of the Purchase Price may be required to be
withheld or in which Buyer would otherwise be liable for any Tax liabilities of
Seller pursuant to such state and local Tax law.

(f) Buyer shall have the primary responsibility for securing
the transfer, reissuance or procurement of the Permits and Environmental Permits
(other than Transferable Permits) effective as of the Closing Date. Seller shall
cooperate with Buyer's efforts in this regard and assist in any transfer or
reissuance of a Permit or Environmental Permit held by Seller or the procurement
of any other Permit or Environmental Permit when so requested by Buyer. Without
limiting the foregoing, each Party will, as appropriate (i) promptly prepare and
file all necessary documentation, (ii) effect all necessary applications,
notices, petitions and filings and execute all agreements and documents, (iii)
use all Commercially Reasonable Efforts to obtain the transfer or reissuance to
the Buyer of all necessary Permits, Environmental Permits, consents, approvals
and authorizations of all Governmental Authorities and (iv) use all

Commercially Reasonable Efforts to obtain all necessary consents, approvals and
authorizations of all other parties, in the case of each of the foregoing
clauses (i), (ii), (iii) and (iv), necessary or advisable to consummate the
transactions contemplated by this Agreement (including, without limitation, the
Seller's Required Regulatory Approvals and the Buyer Required Regulatory
Approvals) or required by the terms of any note, bond, mortgage, indenture, deed
of trust, license, franchise, permit, concession, contract, lease or other
instrument to which the Seller is a party or by which Seller is bound. Each of
the Seller and the Buyer shall have the right to review in advance all
characterizations of the information relating to the transactions contemplated
by this Agreement which appear in any material filing made in connection with
the transactions contemplated hereby.

6.7 Fees and Commissions. Seller, on the one hand, and Buyer, on the
other hand, represent and warrant to the other that, except for ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇ &
Co., which are acting for and at the expense of Seller, no broker, finder or
other Person is entitled to any brokerage fees, commissions or finder's fees in
connection with the transaction contemplated hereby by reason of any action
taken by the Party making such representation. Seller, on the one hand, and
Buyer, on the other hand, will pay to the other or otherwise discharge, and will
indemnify and hold the other harmless from and against, any and all claims or
liabilities for all brokerage fees, commissions and finder's fees (other than
the fees, commissions and finder's fees payable to the parties listed above)
incurred by reason of any action taken by the indemnifying party.

6.8 Tax Matters.

(a) All transfer and sales taxes incurred in connection with
this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby (including, without
limitation, (a) Pennsylvania sales tax; and (b) the Pennsylvania realty transfer
taxes on conveyances of interests in real property (including such taxes
assessed by Pennsylvania municipalities as well as by the Commonwealth of
Pennsylvania itself) shall be borne by Buyer. Except for the Pennsylvania Realty
Transfer Tax Statement of Value, which shall be filed by Buyer, Seller shall
file, to the extent required by, or permissible under, applicable law, all
necessary Tax Returns and other documentation with respect to all such transfer
and sales taxes, and, if required by applicable law, Buyer shall join in the
execution of any such Tax Returns and other documentation. Prior to the Closing
Date, to the extent applicable, Buyer shall provide to Seller appropriate
certificates of Tax exemption from each applicable taxing authority.

(b) With respect to Taxes to be prorated in accordance with
Section 3.5 of this Agreement, Buyer shall prepare and timely file all Tax
Returns required to be filed after the Closing Date with respect to the
Purchased Assets, if any, and shall duly and timely pay all such Taxes shown to
be due on such Tax Returns. Buyer's preparation of any such Tax Returns shall be
subject to Seller's approval, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld.
Buyer shall make such Tax Returns available for Seller's review and approval no
later than fifteen (15) Business Days prior to the due date for filing each such
Tax Return.

(c) Buyer and Seller shall provide the other with such
assistance as may reasonably be requested by the other Party in connection with
the preparation of any Tax Return, any audit or other examination by any taxing
authority, or any judicial or administrative proceedings relating to liability
for Taxes, and each shall retain and provide the requesting party with any
records or information which may be relevant to such return, audit, examination
or proceedings. Any information obtained pursuant to this Section 6.8(c) or
pursuant to any other Section hereof providing for the sharing of information or
review of any Tax Return or other instrument relating to Taxes shall be kept
confidential by the parties hereto. Schedule 6.8 sets forth procedures to be
followed with respect to the tax appeals and audits referred to therein.

(d) Disputes. In the event that a dispute arises between
Seller and Buyer as to the amount of Taxes, or indemnification, or the amount of
any allocation of Purchase Price under Section 3.4, the parties shall attempt in
good faith to resolve such dispute, and any agreed upon amount shall be paid to
the appropriate party. If such dispute is not resolved 30 days thereafter, the
parties shall submit the dispute to the Independent Accounting firm for
resolution, which resolution shall be final, conclusive and binding on the
parties. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the fees
and expenses of the Independent Accounting Firm in resolving the dispute shall
be borne equally by Seller and Buyer. Any payment required to be made as a
result of the resolution of the dispute by the Independent Accounting firm shall
be made within ten days after such resolution, together with any interest
determined by the Independent Accounting Firm to be appropriate.

(e) Cooperation. Buyer and Seller shall cooperate fully, as
and to the extent reasonably requested by the other Party, in connection with
the filing of Tax Returns pursuant to this Agreement and any audit, litigation
or other proceeding with respect to Taxes. Such cooperation shall include the
retention and (upon the other Party's request) the provision of records and
information which are reasonably relevant to any such audit, litigation or other
proceeding and making employees (to the extent such employees were responsible
for the preparation, maintenance or interpretation of information and documents
relevant to Tax matters or to the extent required as witnesses in

any Tax proceedings), available on a mutually convenient basis to provide
additional information and explanation of any material provided hereunder. The
Parties agree to give the other Party reasonable written notice prior to
transferring, destroying or discarding any such books and records and, if the
other Party so requests, Buyer or Seller, as the case may be, shall allow the
other Party to take possession of such books and records.

(f) Buyer and Seller further agree, upon request, to use their
best efforts to obtain any certificate or other document from any governmental
authority or any other Person as may be necessary to mitigate, reduce or
eliminate any Tax that could be imposed (including, but not limited to, with
respect to the transactions contemplated hereby).

6.9 Advice of Changes. Prior to the Closing, each Party will promptly
advise the other in writing with respect to any matter arising after execution
of this Agreement of which that Party obtains Knowledge and which, if existing
or occurring at the date of this Agreement, would have been required to be set
forth in this Agreement, including any of the Schedules hereto. Seller may at
any time notify Buyer of any development causing a breach of any of its
representations and warranties in Article IV. Unless Buyer has the right to
terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 9.1(e) below by reason of the
developments (considered individually or in the aggregate with any such prior
developments) and exercises that right within the period of thirty (30) days
after such right accrues, the written notice pursuant to this Section 6.9 will
be deemed to have amended this Agreement, including the appropriate Schedule, to
have qualified the representations and warranties contained in Article IV above,
and to have cured any misrepresentation or breach of warranty that otherwise
might have existed hereunder by reason of the development.

6.10 Employees.

(a) At least 90 days prior to the Closing Date, Buyer shall
provide Seller with its staffing level requirements listed by classification and
operation and shall make reasonable efforts to offer employment, effective on
the Closing Date, to those employees of Seller who are covered by a Collective
Bargaining Agreement as defined in Section 6.10(d) below ("Union Employees") and
who are listed in, or whose employment responsibilities are listed in, Schedule
6.10(a)(i) as "Plant Employees" or "Dedicated Support Staff" as associated with
the Plant purchased by Buyer, provided, that Buyer shall be required to offer
employment only to that number of Union Employees necessary to satisfy such
staffing level requirements. In each classification, Union Employees shall be so
offered employment in order of their seniority.

(b) At least 90 days prior to the Closing Date, Buyer is also
required to make reasonable efforts to make a Qualifying Offer of employment
with Buyer or any of its Affiliates,

effective on the Closing Date, to those salaried employees of Seller, Genco, or
GPUS ("Non-Union Employees") who are listed in, or whose employment
responsibilities are listed in, Schedule 6.10(b) as "Plant Employees" or
"Dedicated Support Staff" as associated with the Plant purchased by Buyer. Each
person who becomes employed by Buyer or any of its Affiliates pursuant to
Section 6.10(a) or (b) (whether pursuant to a Qualifying Offer or otherwise)
shall be referred to herein as a "Transferred Union Employee" or "Transferred
Non-Union Employee", respectively. As used herein, the term "Qualifying Offer"
means an offer of employment at an annual level of compensation that is at least
85% of the employee's current total annual cash compensation (consisting of base
salary and target incentive bonus) at the time the offer is made. Schedule
6.10(b) sets forth, for each of the Non-Union Employees listed therein, his or
her current base salaries and target incentive bonuses.

(c) All offers of employment made pursuant to Sections 6.10(a)
or (b) shall be made in accordance with all applicable laws and regulations, and
in addition, for Union Employees, in accordance with seniority and all other
applicable provisions of the Collective Bargaining Agreement.

(d) Schedule 6.10(d) sets forth the collective bargaining
agreement, and amendments thereto, to which Seller is a party with the Union in
connection with the Purchased Assets ("Collective Bargaining Agreement").
Transferred Union Employees shall retain their seniority and receive full credit
for service with Seller in connection with entitlement to vacation and all other
benefits and rights under the Collective Bargaining Agreement and under each
compensation, retirement or other employee benefit plan or program Buyer is
required to maintain for Transferred Union Employees pursuant to the Collective
Bargaining Agreement. With respect to Transferred Union Employees, on the
Closing Date, Buyer shall assume the Collective Bargaining Agreement for the
duration of its term as it relates to Transferred Union Employees to be employed
at the Plant in positions covered by the Collective Bargaining Agreement and
shall comply with all applicable obligations under the Collective Bargaining
Agreement. Consistent with its obligations under the Collective Bargaining
Agreement and applicable laws, Buyer shall be required to establish and maintain
a pension plan and other employee benefit programs for the Transferred Union
Employees for the duration of the term of the Collective Bargaining Agreement
which are substantially equivalent to Seller's plans and programs in effect for
the Transferred Union Employees immediately prior to the Closing Date (the
"Seller's Plans"), and which provide at least the same level of benefits or
coverage as do Seller's Plans for the duration of the Collective Bargaining
Agreement. Buyer further agrees to recognize the Union as the collective
bargaining agent for the applicable Transferred Union Employees.

(e) As of the Closing Date, all Transferred Non-Union
Employees shall commence participation in welfare benefit plans of Buyer or its
Affiliates (the "Replacement Welfare Plans").

Buyer shall (i) waive all limitations as to pre-existing condition exclusions
and waiting periods with respect to the Transferred Non-Union Employees under
the Replacement Welfare Plans, other than, but only to the extent of,
limitations or waiting periods that were in effect with respect to such
employees under the welfare plans maintained by Seller, Genco, GPUN or GPUS or
their Affiliates and that have not been satisfied as of the Closing Date, and
(ii) provide each Transferred Non-Union Employee with credit for any copayments
and deductibles paid prior to the Closing Date in satisfying any deductible or
out-of-pocket requirements under the Replacement Welfare Plans (on a pro-rata
basis in the event of a difference in plan years).

(f) Transferred Non-Union Employees shall be given credit for
all service with Seller, Genco, GPUN, GPUS and their Affiliates under all
deferred compensation, profit-sharing, 401(k), retirement pension, incentive
compensation, bonus, fringe benefit and other employee benefit plans, programs
and arrangements of Buyer ("Buyer Benefit Plans") in which they may become
participants. The service credit so given shall be for purposes of eligibility
and vesting, but shall not be for purposes of level of benefits and benefit
accrual except to the extent that the Buyer Benefit Plans otherwise provide.

(g) To the extent allowable by law, Buyer shall take any and
all necessary action to cause the trustee of any defined contribution plan of
Buyer or its Affiliates in which any Transferred Employee becomes a participant
to accept a direct "rollover" of all or a portion of said employee's "eligible
rollover distribution" within the meaning of Section 402 of the Code from the
GPU Companies Employee Savings Plan for Non-Bargaining Employees or from the
Employee Savings Plan for Bargaining Unit Employees maintained by Seller(the
"Seller's Savings Plans") if requested to do so by the Transferred Employee, or
to accept a direct plan-to-plan transfer from Seller's Savings Plans of the
account balances of any Transferred Employee and the assets of such plans
related thereto, if requested to do so by Seller or by the Transferred Employee.
Buyer agrees that the property so rolled over and the assets so transferred may
include (i) promissory notes evidencing loans from Seller's Savings Plans to
Transferred Employees that are outstanding as of the Closing Date, and (ii)
shares of GPU common stock in which the account balances of Transferred
Employees are invested as of the Closing Date. However, except as otherwise
provided in Section 6.10(d), any defined contribution plan of Buyer or its
Affiliates accepting such a rollover or transfer shall not be required to (x)
make any further loans to any Transferred Employee after the Closing Date or (y)
permit any additional investment to be made in GPU common stock on behalf of any
Transferred Employee after the Closing Date.

(h) Buyer shall pay or provide to Transferred Employees the
benefits described in subparagraphs (i), (ii) and (iii) of this Section 6.10(h),

in the amount of $2,500 to each Transferred Union Employee. Payment
shall be made as soon as practicable after, but in any event no later
than 60 days following, the Closing Date.

(ii) In the case of each Transferred Non-Union
Employee who is initially assigned by Buyer to a principal place of
work that is at least 50 miles farther from the employee's principal
residence than was his principal place of work immediately prior to the
Closing Date and who relocates his or her principal residence to the
vicinity of his or her new principal place of work within 12 months
following the Closing Date, Buyer shall reimburse the employee for all
"moving expenses" within the meaning of Section 217(b) of the Code
incurred by the employee and other members of his or her household in
connection with such relocation, up to a maximum aggregate amount of
$5,000. Claims for reimbursement for such expenses shall be filed in
accordance with such procedures, and shall be accompanied by such
substantiation of the expenses for which reimbursement is sought, as
Buyer may reasonably request. All claims for reimbursement shall be
processed, and qualifying expenses shall be reimbursed, as soon as
practicable after, but in any event no later than 60 days following,

Non-Union Employee who had attained age 50 and had completed at least
10 Years of Service (as defined in Section 1(c) of Schedule 6.10(h))

employment with Buyer and all of its Affiliates is terminated by Buyer
or any of its Affiliates for any reason other than for cause or
disability. Buyer shall require any Transferred Employee who is
Involuntarily Terminated, as a condition to receiving the severance
benefits described in Section 1(b), (c), (d), (e) and (f) of Schedule
6.10(h), to execute a release of claims against Seller, Genco, GPUN or
GPUS, as applicable, and all of their Affiliates, and Buyer, in such
form as Buyer and Seller shall agree upon.

(iv) At the Closing or as soon thereafter as
practicable, but in any event no later than 60 days following the
Closing Date, Buyer shall pay to Seller, in addition to all other
amounts to be paid by Buyer to Seller hereunder, an amount equal to the
aggregate estimated cost that Seller or any of Seller's Affiliates will
or may incur in providing the severance, pension, health care and group
term life insurance benefits described in Section 2 of Schedule 6.10(h)
to the Union Employees and Non-Union Employees therein described
(collectively the "Termination Benefits"). The estimated cost of such
benefits shall be calculated by the actuarial firm regularly engaged to
provide actuarial services to the GPU Companies with respect to their
pension, health care and life insurance plans, and shall be determined
using the same assumptions as to mortality, turnover, interest rate and
other actuarial assumption as used by such firm in determining the cost
of benefits under the GPU Companies' pension, health and group term
life insurance plans for purposes of their most recently issued
financial statements prior to the Closing Date.

(i) Buyer shall not be responsible for any payments required
under any voluntary early retirement plan, program or arrangement offered by
Seller, Genco, GPUN or GPUS in connection with the transfer of the Purchased
Assets. Within thirty (30) days following the last day that any Union Employee
or Non-Union Employee may elect to participate in any such plan offered by
Seller, Genco, GPUN or GPUS, Seller shall provide Buyer with a list of all such
employees who have so elected.

(j) Seller shall be responsible, with respect to the Purchased
Assets, for performing and discharging all requirements under the WARN Act and
under applicable state and local laws and regulations for the notification of
its employees of any "employment loss" within the meaning of the WARN Act which
occurs prior to the Closing Date.

(k) Buyer shall not be responsible for extending COBRA
continuation coverage to any employees and former employees of Seller, Genco,
GPUN or GPUS, or to any qualified beneficiaries of such employees and former
employees, who become or became entitled to COBRA continuation coverage before
the Closing, including those for whom the Closing occurs during their COBRA
election period.

(l) Seller or Seller's Affiliates shall pay to all Transferred
Employees, all compensation, bonus, vacation and holiday compensation, workers'
compensation or other employment benefits to which they are entitled under the
terms of the applicable compensation or benefit programs.

(m) Individuals who are otherwise "Union Employees" as defined
in Section 6.10(a) or "Non-Union Employees" as defined in Section 6.10(b) but
who on any date are not actively at work due to a leave of absence covered by
the Family and Medical Leave Act

("FMLA"), or due to any other authorized leave of absence, shall nevertheless be
treated as "Union Employees" or as "Non-Union Employees", as the case may be, on
such date if they are able (i) to return to work within the protected period
under the FMLA or such other leave (which in any event shall not extend more
than twelve (12) weeks after the Closing Date), whichever is applicable, and
(ii) to perform the essential functions of their job, with or without a
reasonable accommodation.

6.11 Risk of Loss.

(a) From the date hereof through the Closing Date, all risk of
loss or damage to the property included in the Purchased Assets shall be borne
by Seller, other than loss or damage caused by the acts or negligence of Buyer
or any Buyer Representative, which loss or damage shall be the responsibility of
Buyer.

(b) If, before the Closing Date, all or any portion of the
Purchased Assets is (i) taken by eminent domain or is the subject of a pending
or (to the Knowledge of Seller) contemplated taking which has not been
consummated, or (ii) damaged or destroyed by fire or other casualty, Seller
shall notify Buyer promptly in writing of such fact, and (x) in the case of a
condemnation, Seller shall assign or pay, as the case may be, any proceeds
thereof to Buyer at the Closing and (y) in the case of a casualty, Seller shall
either restore the damage or assign the insurance proceeds therefor (and pay the
amount of any deductible and/or self-insured amount in respect of such casualty)
to Buyer at the Closing. Notwithstanding the above, if such casualty or loss
results in a Material Adverse Effect, Buyer and Seller shall negotiate to settle
the loss resulting from such taking (and such negotiation shall include, without
limitation, the negotiation of a fair and equitable adjustment to the Purchase
Price). If no such settlement is reached within sixty (60) days after Seller has
notified Buyer of such casualty or loss, then Buyer or Seller may terminate this
Agreement pursuant to Section 9.1(h). In the event of damage or destruction
which Seller elects to restore, Seller will have the right to postpone the
Closing for up to four (4) months. Buyer will have the right to inspect and
observe, or have its Representatives inspect or observe, all repairs
necessitated by any such damage or destruction.

ARTICLE VIII

INDEMNIFICATION

8.1 Indemnification.

(a) Buyer shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless Seller, its officers,
directors, employees, shareholders, Affiliates and agents (each, a "Seller's
Indemnitee") from and against any and all claims, demands, suits, losses,
liabilities, damages, obligations, payments, costs and expenses (including,
without limitation, the costs and expenses of any and all actions, suits,
proceedings, assessments, judgments, settlements and compromises relating
thereto and reasonable attorneys' fees and reasonable disbursements in
connection therewith) (each, an "Indemnifiable Loss"), asserted against or
suffered by any Seller's Indemnitee relating to, resulting from or arising out
of

(i) any breach by Buyer of any covenant or agreement of Buyer contained in this
Agreement or the representations and warranties contained in Sections 5.1, 5.2
and 5.3, (ii) the Assumed Liabilities, (iii) any loss or damages resulting from
or arising out of any Inspection, or (iv) any Third Party Claims against
Seller's Indemnitee arising out of or in connection with Buyer's ownership or
operation of the Plant and other Purchased Assets on or after the Closing Date.

(b) Seller shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless Buyer,
its officers, directors, employees, shareholders, Affiliates and agents (each, a
"Buyer Indemnitee") from and against any and all Indemnifiable Losses asserted
against or suffered by any Buyer Indemnitee relating to, resulting from or
arising out of (i) any breach by Seller of any covenant or agreement of Seller
contained in this Agreement or the representations and warranties contained in
Sections 4.1, 4.2 and 4.3, (ii) the Excluded Liabilities, (iii) noncompliance by
Seller with any bulk sales or transfer laws as provided in Section 10.11, or
(iv) any Third Party Claims against a Buyer Indemnitee arising out of or in
connection with Seller's ownership or operation of the Excluded Assets on or
after the Closing Date.

(c) Buyer, for itself and on behalf of its Representatives and
Affiliates, does hereby release, hold harmless and forever discharge Seller, its
Representatives and Affiliates, from any and all Indemnifiable Losses of any
kind or character, whether known or unknown, visible or not visible, resulting
from or arising out of any Environmental Condition or violation of Environmental
Law relating to the Purchased Assets other than any liabilities or obligations
constituting Excluded Liabilities. Buyer hereby waives any and all rights and
benefits with respect to such Indemnifiable Losses that it now has, or in the
future may have conferred upon it by virtue of any statute or common law
principle which provides that a general release does not extend to claims which
a party does not know or suspect to exist in its favor at the time of executing
the release, if knowledge of such claims would have materially affected such
party's settlement with the obligor. In this connection, Buyer hereby
acknowledges that it is aware that factual matters now unknown to it may have
given or may hereafter give rise to Indemnifiable Losses that are presently
unknown, unanticipated and unsuspected, and it further agrees that this release
has been negotiated and agreed upon in light of that awareness and they
nevertheless hereby intend to release Seller and their Representatives and
Affiliates from the Indemnifiable Losses described in the first sentence of this
paragraph.

(d) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein:

(i) Any Person entitled to receive indemnification
under this Agreement (an "Indemnitee") shall use Commercially
Reasonable Efforts to mitigate all losses, damages and the like
relating to a claim under these indemnification provisions, including
availing itself of any

defenses, limitations, rights of contribution, claims against third
Persons and other rights at law or equity. The Indemnitee's
Commercially Reasonable Efforts shall include the reasonable
expenditure of money to mitigate or otherwise reduce or eliminate any
loss or expenses for which indemnification would otherwise be due, and
the Indemnitor shall reimburse the Indemnitee for the Indemnitee's
reasonable expenditures in undertaking the mitigation.

(ii) Any Indemnifiable Loss shall be net of the
dollar amount of any insurance or other proceeds actually receivable by
the Indemnitee or any of its Affiliates with respect to the
Indemnifiable Loss. Any party seeking indemnity hereunder shall use
Commercially Reasonable Efforts to seek coverage (including both costs
of defense and indemnity) under applicable insurance policies with
respect to any such Indemnifiable Loss.

(e) The expiration or termination of any covenant or agreement
shall not affect the Parties' obligations under this Section 8.1 if the
Indemnitee provided the Person required to provide indemnification under this
Agreement (the "Indemnifying Party") with proper notice of the claim or event
for which indemnification is sought prior to such expiration, termination or
extinguishment.

(f) Except to the extent otherwise provided in Article IX, the
rights and remedies of Seller, and Buyer under this Article VIII are exclusive
and in lieu of any and all other rights and remedies which Seller, and Buyer may
have under this Agreement or otherwise for monetary relief, with respect to (i)
any breach of or failure to perform any covenant, agreement, or representation
or warranty set forth in this Agreement, after the occurrence of the Closing, or
(ii) the Assumed Liabilities or the Excluded Liabilities, as the case may be.
The indemnification obligations of the Parties set forth in this Article VIII
apply only to matters arising out of this Agreement, excluding the Ancillary
Agreements. Any Indemnifiable Loss arising under or pursuant to an Ancillary
Agreement shall be governed by the indemnification obligations, if any,
contained in the Ancillary Agreement under which the Indemnifiable Loss arises.

(g) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, no party
(including an Indemnitee) shall be entitled to recover from any other party
(including an Indemnifying Party) for any liabilities, damages, obligations,
payments losses, costs, or expenses under this Agreement any amount in excess of
the actual compensatory damages, court costs and reasonable attorney's and other
advisor fees suffered by such party. Buyer and Seller waive any right to recover
punitive, incidental, special, exemplary and consequential damages arising in
connection with or with respect to this Agreement. The provisions of this
Section 8.1(g) shall not apply to indemnification for a Third Party Claim.

8.2 Defense of Claims.

(a) If any Indemnitee receives notice of the assertion of any
claim or of the commencement of any claim, action, or proceeding made or brought
by any Person who is not a party to this Agreement or any Affiliate of a Party
to this Agreement (a "Third Party Claim") with respect to which indemnification
is to be sought from an Indemnifying Party, the Indemnitee shall give such
Indemnifying Party reasonably prompt written notice thereof, but in any event
such notice shall not be given later than ten (10) calendar days after the
Indemnitee's receipt of notice of such Third Party Claim. Such notice shall
describe the nature of the Third Party Claim in reasonable detail and shall
indicate the estimated amount, if practicable, of the Indemnifiable Loss that
has been or may be sustained by the Indemnitee. The Indemnifying Party will have
the right to participate in or, by giving written notice to the Indemnitee, to
elect to assume the defense of any Third Party Claim at such Indemnifying
Party's expense and by such Indemnifying Party's own counsel, provided that the
counsel for the Indemnifying Party who shall conduct the defense of such Third
Party Claim shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnitee. The Indemnitee
shall cooperate in good faith in such defense at such Indemnitee's own expense.
If an Indemnifying Party elects not to assume the defense of any Third Party
Claim, the Indemnitee may compromise or settle such Third Party Claim over the
objection of the Indemnifying Party, which settlement or compromise shall
conclusively establish the Indemnifying Party's liability pursuant to this
Agreement.

(b) (i) If, within ten (10) calendar days after an Indemnitee
provides written notice to the Indemnifying Party of any Third Party Claims, the
Indemnitee receives written notice from the Indemnifying Party that such
Indemnifying Party has elected to assume the defense of such Third Party Claim
as provided in Section 8.2(a), the Indemnifying Party will not be liable for any
legal expenses subsequently incurred by the Indemnitee in connection with the
defense thereof; provided, however, that if the Indemnifying Party shall fail to
take reasonable steps necessary to defend diligently such Third Party Claim
within twenty (20) calendar days after receiving notice from the Indemnitee that
the Indemnitee believes the Indemnifying Party has failed to take such steps,
the Indemnitee may assume its own defense and the Indemnifying Party shall be
liable for all reasonable expenses thereof. (ii) Without the prior written
consent of the Indemnitee, the Indemnifying Party shall not enter into any
settlement of any Third Party Claim which would lead to liability or create any
financial or other obligation on the part of the Indemnitee for which the
Indemnitee is not entitled to indemnification hereunder. If a firm offer is made
to settle a Third Party Claim without leading to liability or the creation of a
financial or other obligation on the part of the Indemnitee for which the
Indemnitee is not entitled to indemnification hereunder and the Indemnifying
Party desires to accept and agree to such offer, the Indemnifying Party shall

give written notice to theIndemnitee to that effect. If the Indemnitee fails to
consent to such firm offer within ten (10) calendar days after its receipt of
such notice, the Indemnifying Party shall be relieved of its obligations to
defend such Third Party Claim and the Indemnitee may contest or defend such
Third Party Claim. In such event, the maximum liability of the Indemnifying
Party as to such Third Party Claim will be the amount of such settlement offer
plus reasonable costs and expenses paid or incurred by Indemnitee up to the date
of said notice.

(c) Any claim by an Indemnitee on account of an Indemnifiable
Loss which does not result from a Third Party Claim (a "Direct Claim") shall be
asserted by giving the Indemnifying Party reasonably prompt written notice
thereof, stating the nature of such claim in reasonable detail and indicating
the estimated amount, if practicable, but in any event such notice shall not be
given later than ten (10) calendar days after the Indemnitee becomes aware of
such Direct Claim, and the Indemnifying Party shall have a period of thirty (30)
calendar days within which to respond to such Direct Claim. If the Indemnifying
Party does not respond within such thirty (30) calendar day period, the
Indemnifying Party shall be deemed to have accepted such claim. If the
Indemnifying Party rejects such claim, the Indemnitee will be free to seek
enforcement of its right to indemnification under this Agreement.

(d) If the amount of any Indemnifiable Loss, at any time
subsequent to the making of an indemnity payment in respect thereof, is reduced
by recovery, settlement or otherwise under or pursuant to any insurance
coverage, or pursuant to any claim, recovery, settlement or payment by, from or
against any other entity, the amount of such reduction, less any costs, expenses
or premiums incurred in connection therewith (together with interest thereon
from the date of payment thereof at the publicly announced prime rate then in
effect of Chase Manhattan Bank) shall promptly be repaid by the Indemnitee to
the Indemnifying Party.

(e) A failure to give timely notice as provided in this
Section 8.2 shall not affect the rights or obligations of any Party hereunder
except if, and only to the extent that, as a result of such failure, the Party
which was entitled to receive such notice was actually prejudiced as a result of
such failure.

10.5 Assignment. This Agreement and all of the provisions hereof shall
be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Parties hereto and their
respective successors and permitted assigns, but neither this Agreement nor any
of the rights, interests or obligations hereunder shall be assigned by any Party
hereto, including by operation of law, without the prior written consent of each
other Party, nor is this Agreement intended to confer upon any other Person
except the Parties hereto any rights, interests, obligations or remedies
hereunder. No provision of this Agreement shall create any third party
beneficiary rights in any employee or former employee of Seller (including any
beneficiary or dependent thereof) in respect of continued employment or resumed
employment, and no provision of this Agreement shall create any rights in any
such Persons in respect of any benefits that may be provided, directly or
indirectly, under any employee benefit plan or arrangement except as expressly
provided for thereunder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (i) Buyer may assign all
of its rights and obligations hereunder to any majority owned Subsidiary (direct
or indirect) and upon Seller's receipt of notice from Buyer of any such
assignment, such assignee will be deemed to have assumed, ratified, agreed to be
bound by and perform all such obligations, and all references herein to "Buyer"
shall thereafter be deemed to be references to such assignee, in each case
without the necessity for further act or evidence by the Parties hereto or such
assignee, and (ii) Buyer or its permitted assignee may assign, transfer, pledge
or otherwise dispose of (absolutely or as security) its rights and interests
hereunder to a trustee, lending institutions or other party for the purposes of
leasing, financing or refinancing the Purchased Assets, including such an
assignment, transfer or other disposition upon or pursuant to the exercise of
remedies with respect to such leasing, financing or refinancing, or by way of
assignments, transfers, pledges, or other dispositions in lieu thereof;
provided, however, that no such assignment in clause (i) or (ii) shall relieve
or discharge Buyer from any of its obligations hereunder. Seller agrees, at
Buyer's expense, to execute and deliver such documents as may be reasonably
necessary to accomplish any such assignment, transfer, pledge or other
disposition of rights and interests hereunder so long as Seller's rights under
this Agreement are not thereby altered, amended, diminished or otherwise
impaired.

10.6 Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed
in accordance with the law of the State of New York (without giving effect to
conflict of law principles) as to all matters, including but not limited to
matters of validity, construction, effect, performance and remedies. THE PARTIES
HERETO AGREE THAT VENUE IN ANY AND ALL ACTIONS AND PROCEEDINGS RELATED TO THE
SUBJECT MATTER OF THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE IN THE STATE AND FEDERAL COURTS IN AND
FOR NEW YORK COUNTY, NEW YORK, WHICH COURTS SHALL HAVE EXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION
FOR SUCH PURPOSE, AND THE PARTIES HERETO IRREVOCABLY SUBMIT TO THE EXCLUSIVE
JURISDICTION OF SUCH COURTS AND IRREVOCABLY WAIVE THE DEFENSE OF

AN INCONVENIENT FORUM TO THE MAINTENANCE OF ANY SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING.
SERVICE OF PROCESS MAY BE MADE IN ANY MANNER RECOGNIZED BY SUCH COURTS. EACH OF
THE PARTIES HERETO IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ITS RIGHT TO A JURY TRIAL WITH RESPECT TO
ANY ACTION OR CLAIM ARISING OUT OF ANY DISPUTE IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT
OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY.

10.7 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in two or more
counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of which
together shall constitute one and the same instrument.

10.8 Interpretation. The articles, section and schedule headings
contained in this Agreement are solely for the purpose of reference, are not
part of the agreement of the parties and shall not in any way affect the meaning
or interpretation of this Agreement.

10.9 Schedules and Exhibits. Except as otherwise provided in this
Agreement, all Exhibits and Schedules referred to herein are intended to be and
hereby are specifically made a part of this Agreement.

10.10 Entire Agreement. This Agreement, the Confidentiality Agreement,
and the Ancillary Agreements including the Exhibits, Schedules, documents,
certificates and instruments referred to herein or therein, embody the entire
agreement and understanding of the Parties hereto in respect of the transactions
contemplated by this Agreement. There are no restrictions, promises,
representations, warranties, covenants or undertakings, other than those
expressly set forth or referred to herein or therein. It is expressly
acknowledged and agreed that there are no restrictions, promises,
representations, warranties, covenants or undertakings contained in any material
made available to Buyer pursuant to the terms of the Confidentiality Agreement
(including the Offering Memorandum dated April 1998, previously delivered to
Buyer by Seller and ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇ & Co.). This Agreement supersedes all prior
agreements and understandings between the Parties other than the Confidentiality
Agreement with respect to such transactions.

10.11 Bulk Sales Laws. Buyer acknowledges that, notwithstanding
anything in this Agreement to the contrary, Seller may, in its sole discretion,
not comply with the provision of the bulk sales laws of any jurisdiction in
connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. Buyer hereby
waives compliance by Seller with the provisions of the bulk sales laws of all
applicable jurisdictions.

10.12 U.S. Dollars. Unless otherwise stated, all dollar amounts set
forth herein are United States (U.S.) dollars.

10.13 Zoning Classification. Buyer acknowledges that the Real Property
is zoned as set forth in Schedule 10.13.

10.14 Sewage Facilities. Except as set forth in Schedule 10.14, Buyer
acknowledges that there is no community (municipal) sewage system available to
serve the Real Property. Accordingly, any additional sewage disposal planned by
Buyer will require an individual (on-site) sewage system and all necessary
permits as required by the Pennsylvania Sewage Facilities Act (the "Facilities
Act"). Buyer recognizes that certain of the existing individual sewage systems
on the Real Property may have been installed pursuant to exemptions from the
requirements of the Facilities Act or prior to the enactment of the Facilities
Act and that soils and site testing may not have been performed in connection
therewith. The owner of the property or properties served by such a system, at
the time of any malfunction, may be held liable for any contamination,
pollution, public health hazard or nuisance which occurs as the result of such
malfunction.
