ARTICLE III
COMMITMENTS OF THE PARTIES

     Section 3.1 EPC Terms and Conditions.

     (a) Subject to and in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Section 3.1, Toshiba shall make available to Nuclear DevCo or its Permitted Designee the engineering, procurement, and construction contract (“EPC Contract”) terms set forth on Appendix C (the “Agreed EPC Terms”) for two single or double unit nuclear power generating projects on brownfield sites (i.e., sites at or adjacent to existing nuclear power projects) in the United States using Toshiba’s ABWR design (which two projects will be in addition to STP 3 & 4) (the “Additional Units”). In furtherance of the foregoing, Toshiba agrees (i) at the request of Nuclear DevCo in connection with any specified Additional Unit, to negotiate with Nuclear DevCo (or its Permitted Designee) in good faith to agree on an EPC Contract containing the Agreed EPC Terms for such Additional Unit, and (ii) if such agreement is reached, to enter into such an EPC Contract.

     (b) After the execution of the STP 3 & 4 EPC Contract, Toshiba and Nuclear DevCo shall negotiate in good faith to adapt the form of the STP 3 & 4 EPC Contract to conform it to the Agreed EPC Terms (as so adapted, the “Agreed EPC Contract Form”), and the Agreed EPC Contract Form shall replace the Agreed EPC Terms as the basis from which any EPC Contract

will be negotiated for Additional Units with respect to which an EPC Contract has not then been agreed (the “Remaining Units”). Accordingly, at any time after the execution of the STP 3 & 4 EPC Contract, at the request of Nuclear DevCo in connection with a specified Remaining Unit, Toshiba agrees (i) to negotiate with Nuclear DevCo (or its Permitted Designee) in good faith to agree on the terms of the EPC Contract for such Remaining Unit based on the Agreed EPC Contract Form (subject only to changes contemplated by Section 3.1(c) below) and (ii) if the parties reach agreement, to enter into such EPC Contract. ^**

     (c) The Parties acknowledge and agree that, in negotiating the EPC Contract for Remaining Units, no changes will be made to the Agreed EPC Contract Form other than the following (collectively, “Permitted Changes”): (i) changes to cost, schedule and unit performance; and (ii) changes to reflect the following: (1) any material site-specific differences between the relevant Additional Unit and STP 3 & 4; (2) changes in any applicable Law after the execution of the STP 3 & 4 EPC Contract; (3) changes in the Toshiba scope of work for the relevant Additional Unit as compared to the STP 3 & 4 EPC Contract; and (4) changes after the execution of the STP 3 & 4 EPC Contract in the risks covered by insurance. For the avoidance of doubt, the final contract price for any Additional Unit will include a margin over project costs (other than profit, contingency and general and administrative costs) of a percentage to be agreed, which margin will cover collectively profit, contingency, and general and administrative costs. However, the Parties agree that Toshiba may request changes to the Agreed EPC Terms or the Agreed EPC Contract Form other than those specified in this Section 3.1(c) when negotiating any EPC Contract, and that the other Parties will discuss with Toshiba and consider such requested changes in good faith.

     (d) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, in no event shall Toshiba or any affiliate thereof be required to perform any engineering, procurement or construction services unless such services are set forth in a written agreement executed by such Person. However, Toshiba acknowledges and agrees that it will be in breach of its obligation under this Agreement if it refuses to execute an EPC Contract for any Additional Units due to the fact that Nuclear DevCo or its Permitted Designee has not agreed to changes in the Agreed EPC Terms or, after the execution of the STP 3 & 4 EPC Contract, changes from the Agreed EPC Contract Form unless (i) such changes constitute Permitted Changes or (ii) either of the other Parties or Nuclear DevCo’s Permitted Designee has not considered and discussed with Toshiba in good faith such changes after such changes were proposed by Toshiba.

     Section 3.2 Development of New Sites. Nuclear DevCo agrees to use reasonable efforts to advance the development of at least one additional site for deployment of ABWR generating facilities in the United States (each a “New Site”) such that Nuclear DevCo (or its affiliates) formally notifies the Nuclear Regulatory Commission on or before December 31, 2008, of its intention to file a combined construction and operating license application with regard to at least one such New Site. Nuclear DevCo and Toshiba agree to negotiate in good faith for the terms of and, on or before December 31, 2008, enter into a contract for the performance of site layout work at a New Site.

APPENDIX B

ARBITRATION PROCEDURES

     1.1 Disputes. Any and all claims, counterclaims, demands, causes of action, disputes, controversies, and other matters in question arising out of or relating to this Agreement, or to the alleged breach hereof, or in any way relating to the subject matter of this Agreement or the relationship between the Parties created by this Agreement (whether extra-contractual in nature, sounding in contract, tort or otherwise, or provided for by federal or state statute, common law or otherwise) (hereafter a “Dispute”) shall be finally resolved by binding arbitration under the Non-Administered Arbitration Rules of the International Institute for Conflict Prevention and Resolution (the “Rules”) then in force to the extent such Rules are not inconsistent with the provisions of this Agreement.

     1.2 Negotiation to Resolve Disputes. If a Dispute arises out of or relates to this Agreement, a Party may give notice to all other Parties that it intends to initiate the dispute resolution procedures set forth herein. Promptly upon receipt of such notice, each Party that is a party to the Dispute (each, a “Disputing Party”) shall refer such Dispute to a senior executive officer (“SEO”) of each Disputing Party (or of Toshiba’s Power Systems Company, in the case of Toshiba). The SEOs will meet in person or by teleconference as soon as mutually practicable in order to try and resolve the Dispute. If the SEOs are unable to resolve the Dispute on or before the 30^th Day after such notice, any Disputing Party may commence an arbitration under this Appendix B by notifying each Party (an “Arbitration Notice”).

     1.3 Selection of Arbitrators.

          (a) Three Arbitrators. Any arbitration conducted under this Appendix B shall be heard by three arbitrators (each an “Arbitrator” and collectively the “Tribunal”) selected in accordance with this Section 1.3. Each Disputing Party and any proposed Arbitrator shall, as soon as practicable, disclose to the other Disputing Parties any business, personal or other relationship or affiliation that may exist between any Party and the proposed Arbitrators. The Disputing Parties may then object to any of the proposed Arbitrators on the basis of such relationship or affiliation. The validity of any such objection shall be determined according to the Rules.

          (b) Selection of Arbitrators. Except as provided for in this Section 1.3, the Tribunal shall be appointed according to the Rules. In the Arbitration Notice, the Disputing Party requesting arbitration shall nominate one Arbitrator. The Disputing Party named as respondent by the claimant shall nominate one Arbitrator. Within 30 Days of the appointment of the second Arbitrator, the two party-appointed Arbitrators shall appoint a third Arbitrator who shall chair the arbitration. Where the Dispute at issue involves more than two Disputing Parties, the International Institute for Conflict Prevention and Resolution (“CPR”) shall provide a list of potential Arbitrators. Within seven (7) days of receiving this list, each Disputing Party shall provide to CPR a ranking of the potential Arbitrators on such list showing such Disputing Party’s order of preference among such proposed Arbitrators, with any one or more Disputing Parties who are Affiliates of one another submitting one common ranked list. The CPR shall then

appoint all three Arbitrators as it shall determine in its discretion but taking into account to the extent practical the Disputing Parties’ preferences.

     1.4 Conduct of Arbitration. The Tribunal shall expeditiously (and, if practicable, consistent with the Tribunal’s primary responsibility to justly adjudicate the dispute before it, within 180 Days after the appointment of the third Arbitrator) hear and decide all matters concerning the Dispute. Any arbitration hearing shall be held in Washington, D.C. The arbitration shall be governed by the Federal Arbitration Act, 9 U.S.C. §§1 et. seq. Except as expressly provided to the contrary in this Agreement, the Tribunal shall have the power to gather such materials, information, testimony and evidence as it deems relevant to the dispute before it (and each Party will provide such materials, information, testimony and evidence requested by the Tribunal, subject to such protective orders as the Tribunal determines necessary for the protection of any information so requested that is proprietary, subject to a third-party confidentiality restriction or to an attorney-client or other privilege) and to grant injunctive relief and enforce specific performance. The Tribunal shall not have the power to award punitive or any other form of indirect or non-compensatory damages, even if such are available under the governing law and even if a court would otherwise be empowered to avoid this limitation on damages to make such an award. If it deems necessary, the Tribunal may propose to the Disputing Parties that one or more other experts be retained to assist it in resolving the Dispute. The retention of such other experts shall require the unanimous consent of the Disputing Parties, which shall not be unreasonably withheld. The decision of the Tribunal (which shall be rendered in writing) shall be final, nonappealable and binding upon the Parties and may be enforced in any court of competent jurisdiction. Each Party hereby consents to the non-exclusive personal jurisdiction and venue of the Washington D.C. courts for any proceedings in aid of arbitration under this Section 1.4, including any request for interim or injunctive relief. Notwithstanding the foregoing consent, the Parties may nevertheless seek interim or injunctive relief from any court of competent jurisdiction.

     1.5 Arbitration Costs and Expenses. The responsibility for paying the costs and expenses of the arbitration, including compensation to the Tribunal and any experts retained by the Tribunal, shall be borne by the Disputing Party or Disputing Parties who is or are the least successful in such process, which shall be determined by the Tribunal by comparing the position asserted by each Disputing Party on all disputed matters taken together to the final decision of the Tribunal on all disputed matters taken together, provided however, that each Disputing Party shall be responsible for the fees and expenses of its respective counsel, consultants and witnesses, unless the Tribunal determines that compelling reasons exist for allocating all or a portion of such costs and expenses to the other Disputing Parties.
