transmission without regard to the origin, source, ownership or
type of
generation
used to produce such Power.
8.2 Any Participant may acquire firm entitlement in the
Transmission
System in
addition to that provided for in Section 8.1 hereof upon the
written
agreement of all Participants having cost responsibility under
the
Project
Agreements for the facilities over which such
-19-
<PAGE>
firm
entitlement is sought, provided that said firm entitlement does
not
materially
interfere with the right of any other Participant to utilize
its

which such
interconnections may be made, the charges, if any, to the
interconnecting Participant, and the distribution of the
proceeds
therefrom
to the other Participants.
8.8 Unless otherwise agreed by the Transmission Engineering and
Operating
Committee, when the Capacity available to the Participants in
any
segment of the Transmission System is insufficient to accommodate
all
of the
firm use of the Transmission System pursuant to Section 8.1
hereof,
then the
use of the available Capacity of that segment of the
Transmission
System
will be allocated in proportion to the Participants' cost
responsibility in such segment. It is not the intention of the
Participants to dedicate any Capacity in the Transmission System
for use
by other
parties.
8.9 The Transmission System will be interconnected with the
Four
Corners-Eldorado 500 kv line at the Moenkopi Switchyard in

States' percentage
-22-
<PAGE>
cost
responsibility in such line times the capability of such line,
or
(ii) the
capability required to supply the Power requirements of the
Central
Arizona Project, shall be deemed to be non-firm use unless the
right to
such use shall have been acquired pursuant to Section 8.2
hereof.
8.11 Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 8, Los
Angeles
shall have
the right to use the McCullough Substation or to interconnect

12. RIGHT OF
FIRST REFUSAL:
12.1 Except as provided in Section 11 hereof, should any
Co-Tenant
desire to
transfer its ownership in the Navajo Project or any part
thereof
to any
person, entity or another Co-Tenant, each remaining Co-Tenant
shall

12.1.2 The fair market value.
12.2 If more than one of the Co-Tenants desire to purchase such
interest,
unless otherwise agreed, it shall be transferred in the ratio
that the
Generation Entitlement Share of each Co-Tenant desiring to
purchase
bears to the total Generation Entitlement Shares of such Co-
Tenants.
12.3 At least three (3) years prior to the date on which the
intended
transfer is to be consummated, the Co-Tenant desiring to
transfer
shall
serve written notice of its intention to do so upon all of the
Participants. Such notice shall contain the proposed date of
transfer and
the terms
and conditions of the transfer.
-32-
<PAGE>
12.4 Each Co-Tenant shall have the option to purchase all or
any
part of
the interest to be transferred and shall exercise said option
by
serving
written notice of its intention upon the Co-Tenant desiring to
transfer
and on the remaining Participants within one hundred eighty
(180)
days after
service of the written notice of intention to transfer given
pursuant
to Section 12.3 hereof. Failure by a Co-Tenant to exercise said
option as
provided herein within the time period specified shall be
conclusively deemed to be an election not to exercise said
option.
12.5 If the Co-Tenants fail to exercise their option to purchase
the
entire
ownership interest to be transferred, then the Co-Tenant
desiring
to
transfer shall serve written notice of this fact upon the
remaining
Participants within ten (10) days after its receipt of the last of
the
written
notices given pursuant to Section 12.4 hereof, or after the
expiration
of the one hundred eighty (180) day period referred to in
Section
12.4 hereof, whichever is earlier.
12.6 The Co-Tenants who exercised their option to purchase less
than
the entire
ownership interest to be transferred shall have the option to
purchase
the remaining ownership interest to be transferred, which such
option
shall be exercised by serving written notice of such election
upon
the
Co-Tenant desiring to transfer
-33-
<PAGE>
within
thirty (30) days after the receipt of the notice given pursuant
to
Section
12.5 hereof.
12.7 When the options to purchase all or any portion of said
ownership
interest have been exercised, the Co-Tenants shall thereby
incur
the
following obligations:
12.7.1 The Co-Tenant desiring to transfer the ownership interest
and
the Co-Tenants having exercised the option to purchase all or
any portion of such ownership interest shall be obligated to
proceed in good faith and with due diligence to obtain all
required authorizations and approvals for such purchase.
12.7.2 The Co-Tenant desiring to transfer such ownership
interest
shall be obligated to obtain the release of any lien en-
cumbering the ownership interest which is the subject of the
transfer at the earliest practicable date.
12.7.3 The Co-Tenants having exercised the option to purchase
such
ownership interest shall be obligated to perform all of the
terms and conditions required of them to complete the purchase
of said ownership interest.
-34-
<PAGE>
`
12.8 The purchase of the ownership interest by the Co-Tenants
having
elected to
purchase the same shall be fully consummated within thirty (30)
months
following, the date upon which all notices required to be given
under this
Section 12 have been duly served, unless the Co-Tenants are
then
diligently pursuing applications for required authorizations or
approvals
to effect such transfer or are then diligently pursuing or
defending
appeals from orders entered or authorizations issued in
connection
with such applications, in which event the transfer shall be
consummated within twelve (12) months following the date upon which
the
final
order is entered or authorization issued in connection with
such
applications.
12.9 If the Co-Tenants fail to exercise their option to purchase
all
of the
ownership interest to be transferred, the Co-Tenant desiring to
transfer
such interest shall be free to transfer all, but not less than
all, of
such interest to the party that made the offer to purchase
referred
to in Section 12.1 hereof upon the terms and conditions set
forth
in said
bona fide written offer. If such transfer is not consummated by
the
proposed date of transfer referred to in Section 12.3 hereof,
the
Co-Tenant
desiring to transfer said ownership interest must give another
complete
new right of first refusal to the remaining Co-Tenants pursuant
to the
-35-
<PAGE>
provisions
of this Section 12 before such Co-Tenant shall be free to
transfer
said ownership interest to another party.
12.10 The Co-Tenants who purchase the ownership interest pursuant
to
this
Section 12 shall receive title to and shall own the interest as
tenants in
common, subject to the same rights, duties and obligations as
are
applied by the Project Agreements to the interest being transferred
in
the hands
of the transferring Co-Tenant.
12.11 Any Co-Tenant transferring an ownership interest pursuant
to
the
provisions of this Section 12 shall remain liable and obligated
for
the
performance of all of the terms and conditions of the Project
Agreements, unless otherwise agreed to by all of the remaining
Participants.
12.12 Any party who may succeed to an ownership interest pursuant
to
this
Section 12 shall specifically agree in writing with the
remaining
Participants at the time of such transfer that it will not transfer
or
assign all
or any portion of such ownership interest without complying
with the
terms and conditions of this Section 12.
12.13 The provisions of this Section 12 shall not apply to any
interest
held by the Salt River Project for the use and benefit of the
United
States.
13. DESTRUCTION
:
13.1 If a generating unit of the Navajo Generat-
36
<PAGE>
ing
Station should be destroyed to the extent that the cost of repairs
or
reconstruction is less than 60% of the original cost thereof,
the
Participants shall, unless otherwise agreed, repair or reconstruct
such
generating
unit to substantially the same general character or use as the
original.
The Participants shall share the costs of such repair or
reconstruction in proportion to their Generation Entitlement Shares
in the
generating
unit so destroyed.
13.2 If a generating unit of the Navajo Generating Station should
be
destroyed
to the extent that the cost of repairs or reconstruction is 60%
or more of
the original costs thereof, the Participants shall, upon
agreement,
restore or reconstruct, such unit to substantially the same
general
character or use as the original; provided, however, that
should
all of the
Participants not agree to restore or reconstruct such unit, but
some of
the Participants nevertheless desire so to do, then the
Participants who do not agree to restore or reconstruct shall sell
their
interests
in such unit to the remaining Participants at a price equal to
the
salvage value of such interests. The Participants agreeing to
restore
or
reconstruct such unit shall share the costs of restoration or
reconstruction in the proportion that the Generation Entitlement
Share of
each bears
to the total of Generation Entitlement Shares of such
Participants.
-37-
<PAGE>
13.3 If any facilities of the Transmission System, the Railroad
or
the
pumping plant should be destroyed, the Participants shall,
unless
otherwise
agreed, repair or reconstruct such facilities. The Participants
shall
share the costs of such repair or reconstruction in proportion
to
their cost
responsibility for the facilities so destroyed.
14. SEVERANCE OF
IMPROVEMENTS: Except as provided in Section 12 of the
Indenture
of Lease, the Co-Tenants agree that all facilities, structures,
improvements, equipment and property of whatever kind and
nature
constructed, placed or affixed on the rights-of-way, easements,
patented
and leased
lands as part of or as a Capital Improvement to the Navajo
Project,
as against all parties and persons whomsoever (including
without
limitation
any party acquiring any interest in the rights-of-way,
easements,
patented or leased lands or any interest in or lien, claim or
encumbrance against any of such facilities, structures,
improvements,
equipment
and property of whatever kind and nature), shall be deemed to
be
and remain
personal property of the Co-Tenant(s), not affixed to the
realty.
15. CAPITAL
IMPROVEMENTS:
15.1 The Participants recognize that from time to time it may
be
necessary
or desirable to make Capital Improvements or that Capital
Improvements may be required
38
<PAGE>
by laws
and regulations applicable to the Navajo Project.
15.2 If requested by a Participant, any such Capital
Improvement
shall be
described in a supplement to this Co-Tenancy Agreement executed
in
recordable form.
15.3 The rights, titles and interests, including undivided
percentage
ownership interests, of any Participant in and to any Capital
Improvements to the Navajo Generating Station shall be held as
provided in
Section
6.1 hereof.

Capital
Improvements made to the Transmission System shall be owned by
the
Participant(s) in percentage ownership interest(s) in proportions
equal to
their
construction cost responsibility (ies) for such Capital
Improvements; provided, that title to the interest of the United
States in
any such
Capital Improvements shall be held by the Salt River Project
for
the use
and benefit of the United States.
16. INTERESTS
HELD FOR THE USE AND BENEFIT OF THE UNITED STATES :
16.1 Salt River Project shall acquire and hold the interests
acquired

will realize the full use and benefit of its entitlement as
provided
for in the Project Agreements.
16.2 Salt River Project shall not execute any
-39-
<PAGE>
Project
Agreement or any other agreement which purports to apply to the
rights,
titles or interests held for the use and benefit of the United
States to
which the United States is not a contracting party in its
capacity
as a Participant without the prior written consent of the
United
States.
Except as otherwise provided in the Project Agreements, Salt
River
Project
shall not exercise any rights, privileges or options in any
such
agreement
for or on behalf of the United States without the prior written
consent of
the United States. With respect to any Project Agreement to
which the
United States is not a contracting party, except as otherwise
provided
in the Project Agreements, the United States shall have a
right,
co-equal
with the rights of the Participants who are contracting parties
to such
Project Agreement, to participate in any decision or action
taken
under such
Project Agreement which in any manner applies to or affects a
right,
title or interest held by Salt River Project for the use and
benefit of
the United States, to the same extent and to the same effect as
though the
United States were a contracting party to such Project
Agreement.
16.3 Although it is the intention of the Participants that no
Co-Tenant
should incur any additional liability or burden by reason of
the
generating
and transmission Capacity dedicated for the use and benefit of
the United
States, should any such liability or burden
40
<PAGE>
be imposed
upon Salt River Project solely by reason of its holding legal
title to
any portion of the Navajo Project or holding an interest in the
Project
Agreements for the use and benefit of the United States, such
liability
or burden shall be shared by the Co-Tenants and allocated among
them in
the ratio that each Co-Tenant's Generation Entitlement Share
bears
to the
total of the Generation Entitlement Shares of the Co-Tenants.
To
the extent
any such liability or burden is remedied by money payment,
performance or otherwise subsequent to its allocation to the
Co-Tenants,
Salt River
Project shall reimburse or recompense the Co-Tenants in the
same ratio
as such liability or burden was shared among them.
16.4 All moneys paid to Salt River Project pursuant to the
Project
Agreements
which are for the use and benefit of the United States shall be
segregated
from Salt River Project's general funds and, upon written
request of
the Contracting Officer, such funds will be invested by Salt
River
Project in the manner specified in such request. All interest
earned
and
appreciation in value on such investments shall inure to the
benefit
of the
United States and all losses on such investments shall be at
the
risk of
the United States. If the proceeds exceed the amount of the
obligation
for which they are designated or held, then, upon written
request of
the Contracting Officer, Salt River Project shall pay such
-41-
<PAGE>
excess to
the United States or its designee.
17.
REIMBURSEMENT FOR COSTS AND EXPENSES: The United States shall
reimburse
Salt River
Project for all costs and expenses not otherwise specifically
provided
for which are imposed upon, measured by or associated with the
interests
held by Salt River Project for the use and benefit of the
United
States in
accordance with the Project Agreements.
18. DEFAULTS AND
COVENANTS REGARDING OTHER AGREEMENTS:
18.1 Each Participant hereby agrees that it shall pay all monies
and
carry out
all other duties and obligations agreed to be paid and/or
performed
by it pursuant to all of the terms and conditions set forth and
contained
in the Project Agreements, and a default by any Participant in
the
covenants and obligations to be kept and performed pursuant to
the
terms and
conditions set forth and contained in any of the Project
Agreements
shall be an act of default under this Co-Tenancy Agreement.
18.2 In the event of a default by any Participant in any of the
terms and
conditions of the Project Agreements, then, within ten (10)
days
after
written notice has been given by any non-defaulting Participant
to
all other
Participants of the existence and nature of the default, the
non-defaulting Participants shall remedy such default either by
advancing
the
necessary funds
-42-
<PAGE>
and/or
commencing to render the necessary performance, with each
non-defaulting Participant contributing to such remedy in the ratio
of its
Generation
Entitlement Share to the total of the Generation Entitlement
Shares of
all non-defaulting Participants.
18.3 In the event of a default by any Participant in any of the
terms and
conditions of the Project Agreements and the giving of notice
as
provided
in Section 18.2 hereof, the defaulting Participant shall take
all
steps
necessary to cure such default as promptly and completely as
possible
and shall pay promptly upon demand to each non-defaulting
Participant the total amount of money and/or the reasonable
equivalent in
money of
non-monetary performance, if any, paid and/or made by such
non-defaulting Participant in order to cure any default by the
defaulting
Participant, together with interest on such money and/or the costs
of
non-monetary performance at the rate of ten per cent (10%) per
annum, or
the
maximum rate of interest legally chargeable, whichever is the
lesser,
from the
date of the expenditure of such money and/or the date of
completion
of such non-monetary performance by each such non-defaulting
Participant to the date of such reimbursement by the defaulting
Participant, or such greater amount as may be otherwise provided in
the
Project
Agreements.
18.4 In the event that any Participant shall
-43-
<PAGE>
dispute an
asserted default by it, then such Participant shall pay the
disputed
payment or perform the disputed obligation, but may do so under
protest.
The protest shall be in writing, shall accompany the disputed
payment or
precede the performance of the disputed obligation, and shall
specify
the reasons upon which the protest is based. Copies of such
protest
shall be mailed by such Participant to all other Participants.
Payments
not made under protest shall be deemed to be correct, except to
the extent
that periodic or annual audits may reveal over or under
payments
by Participants, necessitating adjustments. In the event it is
determined
by arbitration, pursuant to the provisions of this Co-Tenancy
Agreement
or otherwise, that a protesting Participant is entitled to a
refund of
all or any portion of a disputed payment or payments or is
entitled
to the reasonable equivalent in money of non-monetary
performance
of a
disputed obligation theretofore made, then, upon such
determination,
the
non-protesting Participants shall pay such amount to the
protesting
Participant, together with interest thereon at the rate of six per
cent
(6%) per
annum from the date of payment or from the date of completion
of
performance of a disputed obligation to the date of
reimbursement.
Reimbursement of the amount so paid shall be made by the
non-protesting
Participants in the ratio of their respective Generation
Entitlement
Shares
to
44
<PAGE>
the total
of the Generation Entitlement Shares of all non-protesting
Participants.
18.5 Unless otherwise determined by a board of arbitrators, in
the
event a
default by any Co-Tenant in the payment or performance of any
obligation
under the Project Agreements shall continue for a period of six
(6) months
or more without having been cured by the defaulting Co-Tenant
or without
such Co-Tenant having commenced or continued action in good
faith to
cure such default, or in the event the question of whether an
act
of default
exists is the subject of arbitration and such default continues
for a
period of six (6) months following a final determination by a
board
of
arbitrators or otherwise that an act of default exists and the
defaulting
Co-Tenant has failed to cure such default or to commence such
action
during said six (6) month period, then, at any time thereafter
and
while said
default is continuing, all of the non-defaulting Co-Tenants
may, by
written notice to all Participants, suspend the right of the
defaulting
Co-Tenant to receive all or any part of its proportionate share
of the Net
Effective Generating Capability, in which event:
18.5.1 During the period that such suspension is in effect, the
non-defaulting Participants shall bear all of the operation
and maintenance costs, insurance costs and other expenses
-45-
<PAGE>
otherwise payable by the defaulting Co-Tenant under the
Project Agreements in the ratio of their respective Generation
Entitlement Shares to the total of the Generation Entitlement
Shares of all non-defaulting Participants.
18.5.2 A defaulting Co-Tenant shall be liable to the
non-defaulting
Participants (in the proportion that the Generation
Entitlement Share of each non-defaulting Participant bears to
the total of the Generation Entitlement Shares of all
non-defaulting Participants) for all costs incurred by such
non-defaulting Participants pursuant to Section 18.5.1 hereof.
The proceeds paid by any defaulting Co-Tenant to remedy any
such default shall be distributed to the non-defaulting
Participants in the ratio of their respective Generation
Entitlement Shares to the total of the Generation Entitlement
Shares of all non-defaulting Participants.
18.6 In addition to the remedies provided for in Section 18.5
of
this
Co-Tenancy Agreement, the non-defaulting Participants may, in
submitting
a dispute to arbitration in accordance with the provisions of
Section 19 hereof,
request that the board of arbitrators determine what
additional
remedies may be reasonably necessary or
-46-
<PAGE>
required
under the circumstances which give rise to the dispute. The
board
of
arbitrators may determine what remedies are necessary or required
in
the
premises, including but not limited to the conditions under which
the
Navajo
Generating Station may be operated economically and efficiently
during
periods when the defaulting Co-Tenant's right to receive its
proportionate share of the Net Effective Generating Capability
is
suspended.
18.7 The rights and remedies of the Participants set forth in
this
Co-Tenancy
Agreement shall be in addition to the rights and remedies of
the
Participants set forth in any other of the Project Agreements.
18.8 Notwithstanding the provisions of Sections 18.3 and 18.4
hereof,
the United States shall not pay or be held liable for any
interest
charges,
except as otherwise provided in Section 18.9 hereof.
18.9 In the event a default by the United States in any of its
obligations to advance funds in accordance with the provisions of
the
Project
Agreements is remedied by the non-defaulting Participants as
provided
in Section 18.2 hereof, the United States will reimburse each
contributing Participant for its costs of money thereby incurred if
there
is in
effect at the time of such reimbursement an Act of Congress
expressly
authorizing such reimbursement to be made by the United States.
For the
purposes of this Section 18.9, "costs of money" shall
47
<PAGE>
mean the
contributing Participant's average cost of borrowed capital
during the
period in which its funds are advanced to remedy a default by
the United
States.
19.
ARBITRATION:
19.1 If a dispute between any of the Participants should arise
under
the
Project Agreements which does not involve the legal rights of or
which
will not
create a legal obligation upon the United States under the
Project
Agreements, or will not affect the interests or rights held for
the use
and benefit of the United States under the Project Agreements,
any
Participant(s) may call for submission of the dispute to
arbitration,
which call
shall be binding upon all of the other Participants.
19.2 The Participant(s) calling for arbitration shall give
written
notice to
all other Participants, setting forth in such notice in
adequate
detail the
nature of the dispute, the amount or amounts, if any, involved
in such
dispute, and the remedy sought by such arbitration proceedings,
and,
within twenty (20) days from receipt of such notice, any other
Participant(s) involved may, by written notice to the first
Participant(s)
and all
other Participants, prepare its or their own statement of the
matter at
issue and set forth in adequate detail additional related
matters or
issues to be arbitrated. Thereafter, the Participant(s) first
submitting
its or their statement of the matter at issue shall have ten
(10)
-48-
<PAGE>
days in
which to submit a rebuttal statement, copies of which shall be
given to
all other Participants.
19.3 Within ten (10) days following the submission of the
rebuttal
statement,
the Participants, acting through their representatives on the
Coordinating Committee, shall meet for the purpose of selecting
arbitrators. Each Participant or group of Participants representing
one
side of
the dispute shall designate an arbitrator. The arbitrators so
selected
shall meet within twenty (20) days following their selection
and
shall
select additional arbitrators, the number of which shall be one
(1)
less than
the number of arbitrators selected by the Participants. If the
arbitrators selected by the Participants, as herein provided, shall
fail
to select
such additional arbitrator(s) within said twenty (20) day
period,
then the arbitrators shall request from the American
Arbitration
Association (or a similar organization if the American
Arbitration
Association should not at that time exist) a list of arbitrators
who are
qualified
and eligible to serve as hereinafter provided. The arbitrators
selected
by the Participants shall take turns striking names from the
list
of
arbitrators furnished by the American Arbitration Association, and
the
last
name(s) remaining on said list shall be the additional
arbitrator(s).
All
arbitrators shall be persons skilled and experienced in the
field
which
gives
-49-
<PAGE>
rise to
the dispute, and no person shall be eligible for appointment as
an
arbitrator
who is an officer or employee of any of the parties to the
dispute or
is otherwise interested in the matter to be arbitrated.
19.4 Except as otherwise provided in this Section 19, the
arbitration shall be governed by the rules and practice of the
American
Arbitration Association (or the rules and practice of a similar
organization if the American Arbitration Association should not at
that
time
exist) from time to time in force, except that if such rules
and
practice,
as modified herein, shall conflict with the Arizona Revised
Statutes or any other
provisions of Arizona law or Federal law, as the
case may
be, then in force which are specifically applicable to
arbitration proceedings, such law shall govern.
19.5 Included in the issues which may be submitted to
arbitration
pursuant
to this Section 19 is the issue of whether the right to
arbitrate
a
particular dispute is permitted under the Project Agreements.
19.6 The arbitrators shall hear evidence submitted by the
respective
Participants and
may call for additional information, which additional
information shall be furnished by the Participant(s) having
such
information. The decision of a majority of the arbitrators shall
be
binding
upon all the Participants.
19.7 The award of the arbitrators shall contain
50
<PAGE>
findings
relative to the materiality of the default, the period of time
within
which the defaulting party must remedy the default or commence
remedial
action, and the remedies which may be exercised by the
non-defaulting Participants in the event the default is not
remedied
within
such period of time.
19.8 This agreement to arbitrate shall be specifically
enforceable,
and the
award and findings of the arbitrators shall be final and
binding
upon the
Participants to the extent permitted by applicable law. Any
award
may be
filed with the clerk of any court having jurisdiction over the
Participants, or
any of them, against whom the award is rendered, and,
upon such
filing, such award, to the extent permitted by the laws of the
jurisdiction in which said award is filed, shall be
specifically
enforceable or shall form the basis of a declaratory judgment or
other
similar
relief.
19.9 The fees and expenses of the arbitrators shall be shared by
the
Participants equally, unless the decision of the arbitrators shall
specify
some other
apportionment of such fees and expenses. All other expenses and
costs of
the arbitration shall be borne by the Participant incurring the
same.
19.10 In the event that any Participant shall attempt to carry
out
the
provisions herein set forth in regard to arbitration, and such
Participant shall not be
51
<PAGE>
able to
obtain a valid and enforceable arbitration decree, such
Participant shall be entitled to seek legal remedies in the courts
having
jurisdiction in the premises, and the provisions of the Project
Agreements
referring
to decision of a board of arbitration shall be then deemed
applicable
to final decisions of such courts.
19.11 If a dispute arises between any of the Participants which
does
or may
involve the legal rights of or which will or may create a legal
obligation
upon the United States under the Project Agreements, or which
affects or
may affect the interests or rights held for the use and benefit
of the
United States under the Project Agreements, then any
Participant
may call
for submission to arbitration of any part of the dispute, which
the United
States may lawfully submit to arbitration. If the Contracting
Officer
agrees to such arbitration, or if the Contracting Officer
refuses
or fails
to arbitrate and a court of competent jurisdiction thereafter
finally
decides that the United States may lawfully submit the matter
in
dispute to
arbitration, it shall be conducted in the manner set forth in
this
Section 19 or in such other manner as may be provided for by
Federal
law.
20. ACTIONS
PENDING RESOLUTION OF DISPUTES: If a dispute should arise which
is
not
resolved by the Coordinating Committee, then, pending the
resolution
of the
dispute by arbitration or judicial proceedings, the Project
Managers
52
<PAGE>
or
Operating Agents shall proceed with Station Work and Transmission
Work
in a
manner consistent with the Project Agreements and generally
accepted
practice
in the electric utility industry, and the Participants shall
advance
the funds required to perform such Station Work and
Transmission
Work in
accordance with the applicable provisions of the Project
Agreements. The resolution of any dispute involving the failure of
one of
the
committees to reach agreement upon matters involving future
expenditures shall have prospective application from the date of
final
determination, and amounts advanced by the Participants pursuant to
this
Section 20
during the pendency of such dispute shall not be subject to
refund
except upon a final determination that the expenditures were
not
made in a
manner consistent with the Project Agreements and generally
accepted
practice in the electric utility industry.
21. TERM AND
RIGHTS OF CO-TENANTS UPON TERMINATION:
21.1 This Co-Tenancy Agreement shall continue in force and
effect
for the

be covenants and obligations running with such Co-Tenant's
respective
rights, titles and interests in the Navajo Project and in, to
and under
the Project Agreements, and shall be for the benefit of the
respective
rights, titles and interests of the Participants and their
54
<PAGE>
respective
successors and assigns, in and to the Navajo Project. It is the
specific
intention of this provision that all such covenants and
obligations shall be binding upon any party which acquires any of
the
rights,
titles and interests of any such Co-Tenant in the Navajo
Project
or in, to
and under the Project Agreements and that all of the
above-described persons and groups shall be obligated to use
such
Co-Tenant's rights, titles and interests in the Navajo Project
and/or in,

the
case of a
partial assignment the assignee shall only be required to share
in the
cost of fulfilling the covenants and obligations of the
assigning
Co-Tenant
in, to and under the Project Agreements to an extent
proportionate to such assignment.
23. RELATIONSHIP
OF PARTICIPANTS:
23.1 The covenants, obligations and liabilities of the
Participants
are
intended to be several and not joint or collective and, except
as
expressly
provided in the Project Agreements, nothing herein contained
shall ever
be construed to create an association, joint venture, trust or
partnership, or to impose a trust or partnership covenant,
obligation or
liability
on or with regard to any one or more of the Participants. Each
Participant shall be individually responsible for its own
covenants,
-55-
<PAGE>
obligations and liabilities as herein provided. No Participant or
group of
Participants shall be under the control of or shall be deemed to
control
any other
Participant or the Participants as a group. No Participant
shall
be the
agent of or have a right or power to bind any other Participant
without
its express written consent, except as provided in the Project
Agreements.
23.2 The Co-Tenants hereby elect to be excluded from the
application
of
Subchapter "K" of Chapter 1 of Subtitle "A" of the Internal
Revenue
Code of
1954, or such portion or portions thereof as may be permitted
or
authorized
by the Secretary of the Treasury or his delegate, insofar as
such
Subchapter, or any portion or portions thereof, may be applicable
to
the
Co-Tenants under the Project Agreements.
24. FEES: No
Project Manager or Operating Agent shall receive any fee or
profit
under the Project Agreements.
25.
UNCONTROLLABLE FORCES: No Participant shall be considered to be in
default
in the
performance of any of its obligations under the Project
Agreements
(other
than obligations of said Participant to pay costs and expenses)
when a
failure of performance shall be due to an uncontrollable force.
The
term
"uncontrollable force" shall be any cause beyond the control of
the
Participant affected, including but not restricted to failure of or
threat
of failure
of facilities, flood, earthquake, storm, fire,
-56-
<PAGE>
lightning,
epidemic, war, riot, civil disturbance or disobedience, labor
dispute,
labor or material shortage, sabotage, restraint by court order
or
public
authority, and action or non-action by or failure to obtain the
necessary
authorizations or approvals from any governmental agency or
authority,
which by exercise of due diligence such Participant could not
reasonably
have been expected to avoid and which by exercise of due
diligence
it shall be unable to overcome. Nothing contained herein shall
be
construed so as to require a Participant to settle any strike or
labor
dispute in
which it may be involved. Any Participant rendered unable to
fulfill
any of its obligations under the Project Agreements by reason
of
an
uncontrollable force shall give prompt written notice of such fact
to
the other Participants
and shall exercise due diligence to remove such
inability
with all reasonable dispatch. The term "Participant" as used in
this
Section 25 shall include any Project Manager or Operating Agent,
in
its
capacity as such.

the State
of Arizona, except insofar as the rights or obligations of the
United
States are concerned.
27. BINDING
OBLIGATIONS: All of the obligations set forth in the Project
Agreements
shall bind the Participants and their successors and assigns,
and such
obligations shall
-57-
<PAGE>
run with
the Participants' rights, titles and interests in the Navajo
Project
and with all of the interests of each Participant in the
Project
Agreements; provided that any mortgagee, trustee or secured party
shall
not be
obligated for obligations arising prior to taking of possession
or
the
initiation of remedial proceedings.
28.

28.1 The Project Agreements shall not be construed to grant to
any
Co-Tenant
any rights of ownership in, possession of or control over the
electric
system of the United States.

the
United
States any rights of ownership in, possession of, or control
over
the
electric system of any Co-Tenant.
28.3 The Co-Tenants do not intend to dedicate, and nothing in
the
Project
Agreements shall be construed as constituting a dedication by
any
Co-Tenant
of its properties or facilities, or any part thereof, to the
United
States or to any other Co-Tenant or to the customers of the
United
States or
to the customers of any other Co-Tenant.
29.
ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION:
29.1 The Participants will design, construct, operate and
maintain
the Navajo
Project in a manner consistent with the Participants' objective
of
attaining the greatest
-58-

at least every five (5) years beginning in 1980,
representatives of the Participants and the designated
representative of
the
Secretary shall meet to review technological advances in air
quality
control
equipment and shall formulate a recommendation to the
Coordinating
Committee
as to the need for and feasibility of installing additional
equipment
or modifying existing equipment to improve air quality control.
In the
event agreement cannot be reached by the Coordinating Committee
on
any
question regarding modification or supplementation of existing
equipment,
the matter shall be subject to arbitration as provided in
Section 19
hereof.
29.2.1 In the operation of the Navajo Generating Station the
Participants will make such tests and measurements and keep
such
records as will enable them to make reports to the Secretary
relating to the operation and efficiency of the air quality
control
equipment at such intervals as may be mutually agreed upon, but
not
less than once annually. The tests and measurements will be made
in
conformance with the latest American Society of Mechanical
Engineers
(ASME) test procedures for determining dust concentration in a
gas

water, waste materials, and sewage, and any other plant systems
related to
control of water quality shall be subject to such approval by
the
Secretary as required by the Project Agreements and to review
and
comment by
the Secretary in all other instances in advance of
construction, installation, making a Capital Improvement or the
retirement
of Units
of Property thereof. The Secretary shall act or comment within
60
days after
submission of a plan or design.
29.3.1 The Participants during normal working hours will permit
representatives of the Secretary to have access to, and to inspect
and
copy, all records relating to water quality control and will
permit
such representatives to inspect the water quality control
systems.
29.4 The
Participants shall take appropriate
-61-
<PAGE>
measures
to harmonize the Navajo Project with the environment. The
Participants shall exercise care to prevent any unnecessary
destruction,
scarring, or
defacing of the natural surroundings in the vicinity of the
Navajo
Project work.
30. ASSIGNMENT
OF INTERESTS: Any Participant who acquires in its name an
interest
in any real or personal property or contract which is part of
the
Navajo
Project shall transfer and assign an undivided interest therein
to
the other
Participants so that the ownership and rights of the
Participants in such property or contract shall be as provided for
in
this
Co-Tenancy Agreement.
31. USE OF
FACILITIES OF LOS ANGELES:
31.1 The United States may use, for such period or periods of
time
as it
desires, the 500 kv transmission line of Los Angeles between
