Subject: TVA/Gleason - second transmission credits doc

Elizabeth, we discussed this matter intenally yesterday, witht he following
conclusions:

We want to be able to apply Gleason Network credits to all transmission costs
(from all TVA-related control areas)
We want to be able to go negative on application of the credits - when
network upgrade invoices to Gleason have not yet caught up to transmission
credit requests from all of the control areas.
We do not want to make a monthly declaration of transmission requirements.
We need to agree with TVA on a process to keep track of the credit usage and
balance.

We would like to go over them with you in our 2:30 pm meeting today - at the
controol room conference table.

Larry.

Larry:

Please make sure folks are up to speed on this. In any current month, the
amount of the transmission credit is equal to the then current amount of
capital costs paid by Gleason to TVA for the Shleby upgrade, less any
transmission credits previously used. I think the way to go is first to see
if we can use the credits to offset transmission charges from our other TVA
plants (on this point, TVA said no, but since Luke is out of the picture, we
should make another run at this). If that does not fly, (that is, if the
amount of credits we can use in any month is limited to the transmission
charges otherwise due from Gleason on the power it generates), we obviously
want to make sure we designate a credit amount equal to only as much as we
actually need.

Given that I believe we are the first IPP to be in this situation with TVA,
and given that TVA is to repay us in 2009 for the actual cost of the Shelby
upgrade less transmission credits actually used, we also need to make sure we
are accurately tracking both upgrade costs and transmission credits used, and
that TVA agrees with what we believe to be the correct balance. Jody Pierce
and Amy Copeland are aware of this, but I caution that we need to be
extremely careful given the amount of money involved. Toward this end, I have
asked Jody and Amy to make sure each TVA Shelby upgrade invoice is adequately
labelled as such by TVA before we make payments. I strongly suggest we put in
place a similar system for transmission credits whereby we receive TVA
signoff as part of the process Dennis To references below.

Please follow up with Jody, Amy, and Lloyd to make sure everyone is up to
speed on this as we proceed, and please make sure that an adequate process is
set up to account for transmission charges, credits, and balance of Shelby
upgrade costs.

Thanks much,

Ben
