TAX EXEMPTION CERTIFICATE AND AGREEMENT

The undersigned are duly qualified officers of The Industrial Development

Authority of the City of Show Low, Arizona (the "Issuer"), Snowflake White

Mountain Power, LLC (the "Company") and J.P. Morgan Trust Company, National

Association (the "Trustee"), respectively. The undersigned officer of the Issuer

is charged, with others, with the responsibility for executing and delivering

the obligations described on the cover page of this Tax Agreement (the "Bonds")

on the date hereof. The Bonds were authorized pursuant to a duly authorized

resolution (the "Resolution") of the Issuer and are being issued pursuant to

that certain Indenture of Trust dated as of September 1, 2006 (the "Indenture")

between the Issuer and the Trustee. Sale Proceeds of the Bonds will be provided

to the Company pursuant to that certain Loan Agreement dated as of September 1,

2006 (the "Loan Agreement") between the Issuer and the Company. The payment of

principal and purchase prices of and interest on the Bonds for an initial period

will be supported by the Credit Facility to be issued by the Credit Facility

Provider. Certain terms are defined in Article I hereof. Terms used herein and

not defined in Article I shall have the meanings given to them in the Indenture.

One purpose of executing this Tax Agreement is to set forth various facts

regarding the Bonds and to establish the expectations of the Issuer, the Company

and the Trustee as to future events regarding the Bonds and the use of Bond

proceeds. To the extent such facts do not relate directly to the Issuer or the

Trustee, the Issuer and the Trustee are relying upon the certifications of the

Company, which is reasonable and prudent. The certifications, covenants and

representations contained herein are made on behalf of the Issuer, the Company

and the Trustee for the benefit of the owners from time to time of the Bonds.

The Issuer and the Company hereby covenant that they will not take any

action, omit to take any action or permit the taking or omission of any action

within their control (including, without limitation, making or permitting any

use of the proceeds of the Bonds) if taking, permitting or omitting to take such

action would cause any of the Bonds to be an arbitrage bond within the meaning

of the Code or would otherwise cause the interest on the Bonds to be included in

the gross income of the recipients thereof for federal income tax purposes. The

Issuer acknowledges that, in the event of an examination by the Internal Revenue

Service of the exemption from federal income taxation of interest on the Bonds,

under present rules, the Issuer may be treated as a "taxpayer" in such

examination. The Company agrees that it will direct the Issuer to respond in a

commercially reasonable manner to any inquiries from the Internal Revenue

Service in connection with such an examination and the Issuer agrees that it

will reasonably cooperate with the Company (at the expense of the Company) in

this regard. The Company has agreed at Section 5.2 of the Loan Agreement to

indemnify and hold harmless the Issuer against any liability resulting from or

related to the issuance of the Bonds.

ARTICLE II

DESCRIPTION OF PROJECT

Section 2.1. Purpose of the Bonds. The Bonds are being issued to finance

the Project in a prudent manner consistent with the needs of the Company. Sale

Proceeds of the Bonds will be provided to the Company pursuant to the Loan

Agreement. A breakdown of the sources and uses of funds is attached as Exhibit

A.

Section 2.2. The Project -- Binding Commitment and Timing. The Company has

incurred or will, within six months of the Closing, incur a substantial binding

obligation (not subject to contingencies within the control of the Issuer, the

Company or any Related Person to either of them) to a third party to expend at

least five percent of the Sale Proceeds on the Project. It is expected that the

work of acquiring and constructing the Project and the expenditure of amounts

deposited into the Construction Fund will continue to proceed with due diligence

through December 1, 2007, at which time it is anticipated that all Sale Proceeds

and investment earnings thereon will have been spent.

It is expected that the Sale Proceeds deposited into the Construction Fund,

including investment earnings on the Construction Fund, will be spent to pay

costs of the Project and interest on the Bonds in accordance with the estimated

drawdown schedule contained in Exhibit B.

Estimated total investment income as set forth in Exhibit A has been

calculated on the basis of an expected overall investment rate as set forth

therein on amounts in the Construction Fund, assuming that (a) the costs of the

Project are drawn down in accordance with the schedule contained in Exhibit B

and (b) Costs of Issuance will be drawn down during the three-month period after

Closing. The foregoing assumptions represent the Issuer's and the Company's best

estimate, as of this date, of the draw down schedules of and investment earnings

on the Sale Proceeds.

Section 2.3. Reimbursement. Except for Reimbursed Expenditures, as

identified on Exhibit A, none of the Sale Proceeds or investment earnings

thereon will be used to reimburse an expenditure paid prior to the date of

Closing.

The Issuer and the Company are making the Reimbursement Allocation to

allocate a portion of the Sale Proceeds and investment earnings thereon to the

Reimbursed Expenditures incurred in connection with the acquisition,

construction and installation the Project and will,

 

-6-

<PAGE>

after such Reimbursement Allocation, treat such proceeds as being spent. In

support of the Reimbursement Allocation, the Company represents, and the Issuer

represents solely with respect to those items relating to the Issuer in (a) and

(d) below, as follows:

(a) Except as described in (f) below, the Issuer declared an official

intent to reimburse such expenditures not later than 60 days after the date

such expenditures were paid. At the time the official intent described

above was declared, the Company and the Issuer (based upon information

supplied by the Company, upon which it was reasonable and prudent for the

Issuer to rely) reasonably expected to reimburse the non-Preliminary

Expenditures related thereto with the proceeds of a future borrowing. A

copy of the declaration of such intent is attached hereto as Exhibit E.

With respect to expenditures paid within the 60 day period ending on this

date and with respect to which no declaration of intent was previously

made, the Issuer hereby declares its intent to reimburse such expenditures

as identified in Exhibit A and in the description of the Project contained

herein. The Issuer and the Company hereby allocate Sale Proceeds in the

amount indicated on Exhibit A to reimburse the Reimbursed Expenditures.

(b) Except as described in (f) below, the Closing is within 18 months

after the later of (i) the first date on which a Reimbursed Expenditure was

paid or (ii) the first date on which the property relating to a Reimbursed

Expenditure was Placed-in-Service or abandoned, but in no event more than

three years after the first date on which a Reimbursed Expenditure was

paid.

(c) All Reimbursed Expenditures represent Capital Expenditures or

Costs of Issuance.

(d) The Issuer and the Company acknowledge that if within one year

after Closing the Issuer or the Company deposits any money or other

property into any fund or account (other than amounts deposited into a bona

fide debt service fund) to pay principal of or interest on the Bonds or any

other tax-exempt obligations in an amount corresponding to Gross Proceeds

used to reimburse a Reimbursed Expenditure (unless such money or other

property constitutes proceeds of a borrowing by the Issuer or the Company),

it may adversely affect the tax-exempt status of the Bonds. The Issuer and

the Company further acknowledge that in the Indenture and Loan Agreement,

respectively, they have covenanted not to take any action that would cause

interest on the Bonds to become includable in the gross income of the

holders thereof for federal income tax purposes.

(e) No Reimbursement Allocation will employ any action (i) that

results in the Issuer issuing more Bonds, issuing Bonds earlier, or

allowing Bonds to remain outstanding longer than is reasonably necessary to

accomplish the governmental purposes of the Bonds, based upon all of the

facts and circumstances or (ii) that avoids the restrictions of Sections

142 through 147 of the Code.

(f) The restrictions in (a) and (b) above do not apply to (i) an

amount of Preliminary Expenditures that does not exceed 20% of the Sale

Proceeds being used to

 

-7-

<PAGE>

finance the portion of the Project with respect to which the Preliminary

Expenditures were incurred, (ii) Costs of Issuance or (iii) an amount not

in excess of the lesser of $100,000 or five percent of the Sale Proceeds.

Section 2.4. Investment of Bond Proceeds. Not more than 50% of the Sale

Proceeds and investment earnings thereon are or will be invested in investments

(other than Qualified Tax Exempt Obligations) having a Yield that is

substantially guaranteed for four years or more. No portion of the Bonds is

being issued solely for the purpose of investing a portion of Sale Proceeds or

investment earnings thereon at a Yield higher than the Yield on the Bonds.

Section 2.5. No Grants. None of the Sale Proceeds or investment earnings

thereon will be used to make grants to any person.

Section 2.6. Hedges. (a) The Company has entered into an Interest Rate

Exchange Agreement with CoBank, ACB (the "Swap") with respect to the Bonds.

Attached as Exhibit I is the confirmation for the Swap, which describes the

terms of the Swap. The Issuer hereby identifies the Swap on its books and

records for the Bonds, and the date hereof is no more than three days after the

date the terms of the Swap were agreed to. The Issuer has directed that the Swap

be included in the closing transcript for the Bonds and will retain this

identification and copies of the Swap with its books and records maintained with

respect to the Bonds, and the existence of the Swap will be noted on the first

form relating to the Bonds that is filed with the Internal Revenue Service. The

interest rate to be paid by the Corporation under the Swap is a fixed rate. The

notional principal amount for each period of time under the Swap will be no more

than the principal amount of the Bonds scheduled to be outstanding under the

Indenture at such times. No portion of one party's payments under the Swap

relates to a conditional or unconditional obligation by the other party to make

a payment on a different date, and they do not require any up-front payment or

other non-periodic payments. The counterparty on the Swap is not paying any

broker's or bidding agent fees. The Swap has been entered into between the

Corporation, which is the conduit borrower of the proceeds of the Bonds, and a

party that is not related to the Issuer or the Corporation. The Swap covers all

or part of the Bonds. Without regard to the Swap, the Bonds would be variable

rate bonds. The payments received by the Corporation under the Swap correspond

closely in time to the dates interest payments must be made on the Bonds.

Payments to be made to the counterparty by the Corporation under the Swap are

reasonably expected to be paid from the same source of funds that, absent the

Swap, would be reasonably expected to be used to pay principal and interest on

the Bonds. Based on the foregoing, the Swap will constitute a qualified hedge

under Section 1.148-4(h) of the Regulations. Therefore, in determining Bond

Yield, the Corporation's payments and receipts under the Swap are taken into

account, together with the actual payments on the Bonds.

(b) Neither the Company, the Issuer nor any Related Person to either of

them has entered into or expects to enter into any hedge (e.g., an interest rate

swap, interest rate cap, futures contract, forward contract or an option)

directly related to the Bonds, except for the Swap. The Company and the Issuer

acknowledge that any such other hedge could affect, among other things, the

calculation of Bond Yield under the Regulations. The Internal Revenue Service

could recalculate Bond Yield if the failure to account for any such hedge fails

to clearly reflect the economic substance of the transaction.

 

-8-

<PAGE>

The Company and the Issuer also acknowledge that if they acquire a hedging

contract with an investment element (including e.g. an off-market swap

agreement, or any cap agreement for which all or a portion of the premium is

paid at, or before the effective date of the cap agreement), then a portion of

such hedging contract may be treated as an investment of Gross Proceeds of the

Bonds, and be subject to the fair market purchase price rules, rebate and yield

restriction. The Company and the Issuer agree not to use proceeds of the Bonds

to pay for any such hedging contract in whole or in part. The Company and the

Issuer also agree that they will not give any assurances to any Bond holder, the

Credit Facility Provider, or any other credit or liquidity enhancer with respect

to the Bonds that any such hedging contract will be entered into or maintained.

The Company and the Issuer recognize that if a portion of a hedging contract is

determined t
