For the purposes of implementing physical power masters with counterparties
to buy and sell power in Alberta, please find attached the final forms of the
following documents, which collectively comprise our Canadianized version of
the EEI master and incorporate comments received from Elizabeth, Peter, Chris
and Mark Powell:

1. Cover Sheet (which contains notification information, credit elections
and our specific amendments to the form of base contract)
2. Base contract (which constitutes the actual agreement)
3. Schedules (which describe the Products and set forth the form of
confirmation letter and the forms of guarantees)

The idea is that there are no changes made to the actual form of the base
contract. Instead, any changes to the terms of the base contract are made
through amendments contained in the cover sheet. The enclosed form of cover
sheet contains our preferred amendments and credit elections.

I would ask that Rob Hemstock review the description of the "Firm (LD)"
product. You will see that I have created a general description of "Firm
(LD)" and then gone on to describe what it means specifically for the Alberta
market. Rob, this description is contained in Schedule P of the attached
"Schedules" document. Rob, please let me know if you have any comments on
the Alberta specific description.

As it is still unclear as to how the documentation will evolve for trading
physical power in Ontario, please be advised that we are still developing the
appropriate product descriptions for Ontario, so for the time being we should
probably not be using this document in Ontario. If there is a counterparty
that wishes to use it in Ontario, please contact Chris Gaffney to discuss
same.

Dianne, the form of confirmation letter included in the "Schedules" document
is the form that we should be setting up in your system.

Bill, the credit provisions contained in these documents are now basically
identical to those in the EEI form in use by EPMI in the US, so there
shouldn't be any real issues with the documentation from a credit perspective.

Finally, I wanted to reiterate that the process for putting this physical
power master in place with counterparties is identical to that undertaken
with the gas master. In other words, (i) the commercial person who wants the
master put in place will contact the credit department and provide them with
the counterparty details, (ii) the credit department will prepare a credit
worksheet and send it to the Calgary legal group, (iii) the legal group will
prepare the master based upon the credit worksheet and forward it to the
commercial person for review, and (iv) the commercial person will review and
initial the master and return it to legal who will send it out to the
counterparty for execution. Milnthorp will then execute the master once we
get the executed copy back from the counterparty.

Thanks,
Greg
