SECTION 1. EXEMPT FACILITIES
Each of (i) the Owner Lessor, as purchaser of the Facility from the
Company, and (ii) the Company, as lessee under the Facility Lease, understands
and agrees that:
(a) The Facility includes the Exempt Facilities that have been
financed, and refinanced, in whole or in part, by Central Xxxxxx with the
proceeds of the Revenue Bonds the interest on which, with certain exceptions, is
excluded from gross income for purposes of federal income taxation; and Central
Xxxxxx is the economic obligor in respect of such Revenue Bonds.

utilization, processing or final disposal of solid waste and/or the collection,
storage, treatment, utilization, processing or final disposal of sewage, such
qualifying purposes being discussed in more detail in Sections 2(b) and 3(b)

(c) The use of the Exempt Facilities for a purpose other than a
qualifying purpose indicated in Section 1(b) above could impair (i) such
exclusion from gross income of the interest on such bonds, possibly with
retroactive effect, unless appropriate remedial action were taken (which could
include prompt defeasance or redemption of such bonds) and/or (ii) the
deductibility of payment by Central Xxxxxx of interest based on the restrictions
in Section 150(b) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code").
----
SECTION 2. OWNER LESSOR'S OBLIGATIONS
The Owner Lessor, as purchaser of the Facility from the Company,

the deductibility of Central Xxxxxx'x payments of interest based on the
restrictions in Section 150(b) of the Code.
(ii) The Owner Lessor reasonably expects, as of the date of

Central Xxxxxx'x payments of interest based on the restrictions in Section
150(b) of the Code.
(d) The Owner Lessor agrees that it shall not issue, or have

Exempt Facilities
-----------------
Dust Collection and Fly Ash Reinjection System. This system is designed
----------------------------------------------
to remove fly ash from boiler exhaust gases and reinject the ash into the boiler
for burning. The dust collector on each boiler consists of a structural
foundation, a support structure, casing inlet and outlet duct connections,
internal dust and gas separating elements, dust collector hoppers, internal flow
dividers, xxxxxx level sensors, xxxxxx outlet valving and interlocking, and
automatic control and sequencing equipment for continual removal of residue
collected in the hoppers. The fly ash reinjection system on each boiler
consists of a transport piping system from the dust collector hoppers to the
boiler, motor driven air blowers and air heaters to supply hot transport air,
controls and instrumentation for motors and heaters, and associated electrical
and pneumatic equipment.
Waste Water Treatment System. The facilities are designed to remove
----------------------------
pollutants from the process discharge water and consist of lift stations, a
gravity transport line to the waste treatment area, four waste water treatment,
settling and neutralizing basins, transfer pumps, piping, chemical injectors,
skimming and final settling facilities; and associated pumps, piping, controls,
instrumentation and electrical equipment;
Sewage Treatment System. The sewage treatment system is designed to treat
-----------------------
raw sanitary sewage and consists of a lift station, gravity transport line, we
xxxxx, a package type sewage treatment plant equipped with aerating blowers,
skimmer, electrical controllers and instrumentation, and associated piping,
pumps, chemical feeders and other controls.
Fuel Oil Spill Control Facilities. The fuel oil spill control equipment is
---------------------------------
designed to prevent spilled oil from contaminating the Xxxxxx River and consists
of a floating boom used to encircle fuel ships and barges during unloading, a
motorboat, to tow the boom into place, oil separating and monitoring pits for
drainage from fuel oil storage tank areas, and welded steel envelopes around
storage tanks. A sheet piling baffle extending from above the river water
surface to the river bottom encloses the outlet of the storm and storage tank
farm drain to entrap any oil which may escape from anywhere on the plant
property.
Smoke Density Meters. These meters will measure the opacity of stack gases
--------------------
in order to indicate the presence of abnormal boiler burning conditions that
could lead to unacceptable emissions to the atmosphere.
Yard Drainage System, Fuel Oil Trench and Oil Tank Berm. The yard drainage
-------------------------------------------------------
system is designed to collect drainage water and channel it to the Xxxxxx River
after any contaminant oil has been separated from the drainage flow. The fuel
oil drainage trench serves to trap any leaks
A-1
from sunken oil pipelines and thus prevents the seepage of oil into underground
water streams. The oil tank berm is designed to contain spillage from the
Roseton Facility's fuel oil storage tanks.
