establish and agree upon the territories in which each may serve electric power
and energy to the exclusion of the other, and furthermore as to certain
territory hereinafter described to permanently establish and agree upon the
types of customers and load to be served by each to the exclusion of the other.
SECTION A - Mutual Agreements with Respect to
---------------------------------
Territory, Customers and Load
-----------------------------
1. Of District. Inasmuch as the statutes of the United States of
America prohibit any lease or sale of surplus power or power privileges which
would or might impair the efficiency of irrigation projects created
6
Article II - Section A
under the Reclamation Act of 1902, as amended, and if the Company should sell or
distribute power within the territory allocated to District in ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇,
▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇ of this Article II, or to the particular type of customer or for the
particular type of load allocated to the District within that certain territory
described in Paragraph 2 (b), Section B of this Article II, such sale or
distribution would or might impair the efficiency of the Salt River Project, a
Federal Reclamation Project; therefore, it is agreed that neither the electric
power and energy purchased under the power contract or contracts hereinafter
referred to, nor any other electric power and energy purchased, produced, or
otherwise acquired by the Company will be sold, donated or delivered except
through the District for use within any of the territory allocated to District
in said Paragraph 1, or to the particular type of customer or for the particular
type of load allocated to the District within that certain territory described
in said Paragraph 2 (b), and, therefore, in the event the Company shall, except
through the District, so sell, donate or deliver such electric power and energy
to any customer within the territory allocated to District in said Paragraph 1,
or to such particular customers or for such particular types of load allocated
to the District in ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇, ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇ of this Article II, or so sell, donate
or deliver such electric power and energy to others which shall be distributed
and/or ultimately consumed within such territory, allocated to District in said
Paragraph l, or to or by such particular customers or for such particular types
of load allocated to the District in said Paragraph 2, such sale, donation or
delivery shall be in violation of this Agreement.
2. Of Company. Inasmuch as the minimum payments to be provided for in
the power contract or contracts hereinafter referred to and the commitments of
the Company to take and/or pay for the electric power and energy to be furnished
to the Company by the District are predicated on the Company's expectation of
selling or distributing the full electric power and energy requirements of its
customers within the territory allocated to Company in Paragraphs 1 and 2,
Section C of this Article II, and within that certain territory described in
Paragraph 2 (b), Section B of this Article II, of selling or distributing the
full power and energy requirements of the customers or for the types
7
Article II - Section A
of load which are allocated to the Company in Paragraph 3 of Section C of this
Article II, and inasmuch as the Company could not reasonably commit itself to
pay such minimum payments nor to take and/or pay for such electric power and
energy from the District in the event the District should directly or indirectly
supply such electric power and energy, except through the Company; therefore, it
is agreed that except through the Company the District will not sell, donate or
deliver any power and energy, purchased, produced, or otherwise acquired by the
District, for use within the territory allocated to Company in said Paragraphs I
and 2, Section C of this Article II, nor will it sell, donate or deliver such
power and energy for sale or use to or by customers or for types of load
allocated to the Company in said Paragraph 3; therefore, in the event the
District shall, except through the Company, sell, donate or deliver such
electric power and energy to any customer within the territory allocated to
Company in Paragraphs 1 and 2 of Section C of this Article II, or within that
certain territory described in Paragraph 2 (b), Section B of this Article II, to
any customer or for any type of load allocated to the Company in said Paragraph
3, or sell, donate or deliver such electric power and energy to others which
shall be distributed and/or ultimately consumed within such territory or to or
by such customers or types of load, then such sale, donation or delivery shall
be in violation of this Agreement.
3. Liability for Liquidated Damages. In the event either the Company or
the District shall inadvertently, wilfully, or from any cause, including any
order of the Arizona Corporation Commission, or other regulating body, or court
of competent jurisdiction, sell, donate or deliver electric power and energy in
violation of the provisions of this Agreement, then such party, so long as it
continues so to do, shall pay to the other party liquidated damages for such
sale, donation or delivery determined in the manner hereinafter provided.
4. Amount of Liquidated Damages. In the event any such sale, donation
or delivery is made by either the Company or District to a customer in violation
of this Agreement, then, for each such sale, donation or delivery made or
continued after the tenth day after written notice has been given to cease such
sale, donation or delivery, the
8
Article II - Section A
party making such sale, donation or delivery shall pay to the other party hereto
as liquidated damages for all electric power and energy so sold, donated or
delivered, 35% of the charges applicable to such delivery or like deliveries
under the rate schedule or contract of the party making such delivery, or 35% of
the revenues which would have resulted from like delivery under the applicable
rate for like delivery by the party whose rights hereunder have been infringed
upon, if an applicable rate for like delivery has been established by such party
prior to the initiation of such sale, donation or delivery by the other party,
whichever is the greater; provided, however, that in the event that such
infringement is involuntary (due to a final and binding order of a court or
commission or governmental officer or agency having jurisdiction in the
premises) either party, or if such infringement is voluntary, then the party
whose rights hereunder have been infringed upon, may, upon written notification
to the other party, require that the amount of the payment to be made hereunder,
in lieu of the amount of payment above provided, shall be a different amount to
be agreed upon by the parties as being equal to the revenue derived by the
infringing party from such delivery, minus the operating revenue deductions
attributable to such delivery. The items to be considered as operating revenue
deductions for the purposes hereof shall be those included as operating revenue
deductions in the Federal Power Commission's Uniform System of Accounts
applicable to electric utilities, or such other system of accounts applicable to
electric utilities as may then be in effect pursuant to regulations or order of
the Federal Power Commission or such other federal commission or agency as may
then have jurisdiction to adopt or approve accounting systems or procedures for
electric utilities. Should the parties, within ninety (90) days after delivery
of the notification above provided for, fail to agree upon the "different
amount" above provided, such "different amount" shall be determined by
arbitration, to be conducted in the manner provided in the power contract or
contracts hereinafter referred to.
Payment in the amount determined, as hereinabove provided, shall be
made promptly after its determination and if additional amounts shall accrue
thereafter from continuance of such violation, such amounts shall be paid at
monthly intervals.

Article II - Section A
5. Other Remedies. In the event of any sale, donation or delivery of
power and energy in violation of this Agreement, the party whose rights
hereunder have thereby been infringed upon shall be entitled to the damages
provided in Paragraph 4, Section A of this Article II and to injunctive relief,
and shall not be entitled to any other remedies or relief at law or in equity
unless such party has been unable to obtain either injunctive relief or the
damages provided in the said Paragraph 4 after full utilization of the
procedures set out in the said paragraph. In no event may this Agreement be
terminated by one party hereto because of a voluntary sale, donation or delivery
in violation of this agreement by the other party, unless
(a) the existence of the violation has been established by a final
decision, order or opinion of a court having jurisdiction in
the premises, and
(b) after the existence of the violation has been so established,
notice has been given by the party whose rights have been
infringed upon of intent to terminate unless within 90 days;
(i) the damages provided in said paragraph 4 have been paid
or a proffer of payment has been made, if the infringing
party is lawfully able so to do, and
(ii) the violation has ceased, if such cessation is requested
by the party whose rights have been infringed upon, and
(c) the infringing party has failed to comply with the provisions
of items (i) and (ii) of subparagraph (b) above within such 90
day period, and
within 30 days from the expiration of said 90 day period written notice of
termination has been given by the party whose rights have been infringed upon.
In no event may this Agreement be terminated by one party hereto because of an
involuntary sale, donation or delivery in violation of this Agreement by the
other party.

Kennecott Copper Corporation may sell or deliver a portion of the electric power
and energy purchased by it from District to Ray Electric and Telephone Company
or its successors for resale in the towns of Ray, Hayden, Sonora and ▇▇▇▇▇▇,

34
Article II - Section D
6. Indian Service Standby Agreement. In its letter dated July 2, 1954,
the District has proposed a contract among the District, the Bureau of Indian
Affairs of the United States of America and Kennecott Copper Corporation,
covering mutual standby arrangements pursuant to which the only delivery of
electric power and energy from District's system into territory allocated to the
Company is to be the furnishing of standby service on a mutual basis for the
protection of the service on the Bureau of Indian Affairs 69 kilovolt system
through the Hayden interconnection point, together with any wheeling

energy for such purposes under such contract shall not constitute a violation of
this Agreement.
8. Off-Peak Energy Sales. Each of the parties hereto may sell off-peak
energy to the Arizona Power Authority pursuant to the terms of the proposals of
each party to the Arizona Power Authority by letters dated October 27, 1954, and
the respective acceptances of Arizona Power Authority to each dated November 1,
1954, or in accordance with any formal written agreement, which from time to

35
Article II - Section D
conformity with the terms of such letter proposals and acceptances, regardless

circumstances it may neither be practicable nor be in the public interest for
Arizona Power Authority and United States Department of Interior, Bureau of
Reclamation, in purchasing power and energy from either of the parties hereto,
to be subject to restrictions arising from this Agreement, it is agreed that
each party hereto may hereafter enter into contracts with and make sales of
power and energy to Arizona Power Authority and Bureau of Reclamation without
limitations, insofar as the other party hereto is concerned, as to where such
power and energy may be sold or where it may ultimately be consumed.
10. Boundary Customers. In the event that any single premises of a
customer shall be situated partly in the territory allocated to the Company and
partly in the territory allocated to the District, electric power and energy may
be sold to such customer by either party at the option of the customer, provided
that the delivery point is located on such premises and within the territory of
the supplier, and provided further, that there be no consumption of any such
power and energy other than by such customer on such premises. In such case,
delivery of any such power and energy by one party which may be used by the
customer within the territory of the other party shall not be deemed a violation
of this Agreement. For the purposes of this provision, the term "premises" shall
be defined as all buildings and/or grounds of a customer which are contiguous
and which normally would be supplied from one delivery point, and the term
"delivery point" shall mean the point at which the electric facilities of the
supplier attach to those of the customer.
Neither party will, upon the relocation of a delivery point into its
territory, undertake service theretofore rendered by the other party
36
Article II - Section D
under the foregoing conditions unless the relocation of the delivery point has
become advisable, upon the basis of proper and usual engineering practices, due
to a change in the amount of load, the location of load, or other engineering or
operating factors relating to the electric consumption by the customer. Whether
such relocation has so become advisable by reason of the foregoing factors shall
be determined by the party to whose territory the delivery point is to be moved
but such party shall not make such determination arbitrarily or capriciously and
shall submit to the other party prior to the undertaking of service the facts
and data upon which such determination was based.
Whenever service is initiated by a party hereto to such a customer, and
conditions thereafter shall change so that any of the requirements above set
out, are no longer met, service to such premises and/or any new premises created
by such change shall be rendered in conformity with the provisions of this
Agreement including the provisions of this Paragraph 10 or shall constitute a
violation of this Agreement.
11. Miscellaneous. It is recognized that there may be instances where
it would be in the interests of the public and of the parties hereto to have
electric power and energy delivered by one party for use or consumption in the
territory or by customers or for a type of load allocated to the other party.
Any such deliveries shall not be a violation of this Agreement if made by one
party with the written consent and approval of a representative of the other
party authorized by its Board of Directors to sign such consents and approvals.
Such written consent and approval shall be given in cases where such other party
is unable or unwilling to supply service but the giving of such consent and
approval may be conditioned upon reasonable terms and conditions under which
such other party may at some future time take over the supply of electric
service to the customer or customers involved and acquire ownership of
facilities installed for such services at their original cost less book
depreciation.

territory allocated to the Company that in District's judgment are no longer
needed by it. Similarly the District will sell and the Company will buy the
facilities and installations in the Eastern area which in District's judgment
are no longer needed by it and which were theretofore used sorely for serving
customers to whom service is so discontinued.
The parties have heretofore agreed upon and designated those of
District's facilities and installations which were in place within such areas as

amounts from available records and if advisable verify them by suitable field
checks. The cost of such determination shall be paid by the District and shall
be included in the price for the facilities.
3. Upon the sales of the facilities hereinabove referred to by the
District or the Company, the seller shall execute and deliver appropriate bills
of sale and/or deeds transferring to the other party the facilities and/or land
so being sold, and shall, in addition, transfer by quit claim, deed or such

Article III - Section A
mitted to arbitration and the decision of the arbitration
board shall be binding upon the parties in subsequent
negotiations relating to price, terms and conditions for the
particular additional requirement then under consideration,
subject to the provisions of paragraph (g) hereunder.
(d) In determining the most economically sound method of supply
for such additional requirements, the arbitration board shall
give proper consideration, among other things, to District's
responsibilities for supplying the current and future power
requirements of the Eastern area and for providing a
transmission system for such supply, and shall also give
consideration to Company's responsibilities in the area and
the adequacy and reliability of the method to be selected and
the suitability of the selected method for future power supply
to Company at the requested location or at other locations in
the Eastern area.
(e) A method of supply having been agreed upon by the parties or
selected by the arbitration board, the parties shall then seek
to agree upon a price and related conditions applicable to the
method of supply so agreed upon or selected.
(f) If the parties shall fail to agree on the price to be charged
for the supply of such additional requirements by the agreed
upon or selected method, either party may demand arbitration
and the arbitration board will be asked to determine whether
District's cost is less than Company's cost, and if so to
determine a price for such supply which is midway between such
costs of District and Company. As used in this Paragraph 4,
"cost" shall include the elements normally used in arriving at
cost in the utility industry which shall be particularly
provided in the power contracts here agreed to be entered
into.

parties, provided, however, that District shall not be bound
to use the identical method agreed upon or selected by the
arbitration board but may provide such supply by a method
superior to the agreed upon or selected method.
(h) If the arbitration board determines that no such price,
meeting the criteria of subparagraph (f) of this Paragraph 4,
is possible, it shall state Company's cost found under said
subparagraph, and the parties shall then proceed as follows:
(1) Resume negotiations in an effort to reach agreement.
(2) If agreement is not reached within a reasonable time,
District may, at its election, supply service by the
agreed upon or selected method or a superior method,
at Company's cost as found by the arbitration board,
or if District does not so supply such service, then
(3) Company shall have the right to obtain service at the
requested location from any other sources then
available to Company, provided, however, that Company
shall not be released from its obligation to buy
equivalent power, such equivalent power to be sold
and purchased at established prices and points of
delivery as provided for in the power contract or
contracts or, if the parties should agree otherwise,
at other prices, points, times and rates of delivery.
