I have not attempted to redraft the language, only to point out areas where we will need to work on modifications to the Contract language. 1. Section 5.01 Provision needs to be changed so that Termination Payment is first paid by Company to Customer and if not paid by Company after notice, then the Customer would be entitled to make a draw under the Surety Bond. 2. Section 5.03 Provision needs to be changed to reflect that the initial bond term shall be __5__ years. At the end of the initial term, the Company shall either replace the bond with a new bond for remaining term of prepayment, provide a letter of credit for the remaining amount of prepayment, or provide a corporate guaranty. 3. Section 7.01 This provision should be okay under the Commodity Futures Modernization Act of 2000 enacted as of December 14, 2000. The Customer needs to represent to the Company that the Customer is an "eligible contract participant" under the Act. 4. Section 10.02 10.02.05 - Company has no control on the substance of the opinion of counsel for the surety bond provider. The substance of such opinion should be as negotiated between the bond providers counsel and the Customer. 10.02.06 Should Customers inablility to get funding be an out for the Customer? 10.02.08 Likewise, should the Customer's inability to complete any swap agreements be an out for the Customer? 5. Section 21.01 21.01.02 Company should get aleast 5 business days notice of nonpayment before the Customer should be entitled to cause an Early Termination Date. 21.01.03 As previously noted in 5.03, Company should have the option to provide alternative surety - as referenced in the Term Sheet. Contract and Term Sheet need to be made consistent. 6. Section 21.03 and 21.04 Provisions of the Contract need to be consistent so that all obligations of the parties are netted before any payment is made. Also 21.03 should first provide for payment by the Company and if not made, then by the surety or other security provider. We shouldn't have to pay the Termination Payment to the Customer and then invoice the Customer for any Market Exposure Damages under section 21.06. These should be netted or aggregated in computing the Termination Payment.
