EXHIBIT 10.3.08 AMENDMENT NO. 1 TO POWER PURCHASE AGREEMENT THIS AMENDMENT NUMBER ONE, dated as of February 4, 1994, to the Power Purchase Agreement (hereinafter referred to as the "Agreement") entered into as of September 20, 1993 by and between Meridian Middleboro Limited Partnership (a/k/a Meridian Middleboro, L.P.), a Massachusetts limited partnership, having its principal place of business at 101 Federal Street, Suite 1900, Boston, Massachusetts 02110 (hereinafter referred to as "Seller") and Eastern Edison Company, a Massachusetts corporation, having its principal place of business at 110 Mulberry Street, Brockton, Massachusetts 02043 (hereinafter referred to as "Company"). WHEREAS, Seller has asked that the Agreement be amended to permit Seller to secure the Contract Deposit with a cash escrow account or an irrevocable letter of credit, selected at the option of Seller; and WHEREAS, Company will be fully secured for payment of the Contract Deposit by accepting either a cash escrow account or an irrevocable letter of credit; and WHEREAS, it is deemed by the parties to be in their mutual interest to amend the Agreement to permit Seller to furnish either a cash escrow account or an irrevocable letter of credit to secure the Contract DePosit. NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises set forth above and other good and valuable consideration, the parties do hereby agree and bind themselves as follows: Article 7 of the Agreement is amended by deleting section 7(a) in its entirety and substituting in its place the following new section 7(a): Article 7. Contract DePosit (a) Without limiting the damages or remedies available to Company in accordance with this Agreement, Seller shall be liable to pay Company the Contract Deposit amounts (as shown in Appendix C) in accordance with Articles 5(d), 7(b), (c), (e), and (f) for Cancellation of the Facility. To secure such payment of the Contract Deposit, Seller shall furnish Company either an irrevocable letter of credit or a cash escrow account, selected at the option of Seller, as set forth below. If Seller elects to furnish an irrevocable letter of credit, Seller shall deliver to Company, no later than thirty (30) days after the Effective Date of this Agreement (hereinafter referred to as Contract Deposit Delivery Date), and thereafter no later than each anniversary date of said contract Deposit Delivery date, up to the Commencement Date of Operation or termination of this Agreement, whichever may first occur, an irrevocable letter of credit in favor of Company as described hereinafter in this Article. Each letter of credit shall be for a term of one (1) year and will be equal to the maximum potential liability that Seller will be required to pay under this Article 7 for Cancellation of the Facility during said year, as calculated pursuant to Articles 5(d), 7(b), (c), (e), and (f), including accumulated interest, and as shown in Appendix C. The accumulated interest shall be calculated based on one million three hundred-eight thousand dollars ($1,308,000), beginning on the Execution Date of this Agreement. Thereafter, interest shall be compounded monthly on the first day of the month following the Execution Date, at the monthly interest rate of seven hundred eighty two thousandths of one percent (0.782%). Such irrevocable letter of credit shall include a provision for a forty-five (45) day advance notice to Company and Seller of any expiration of the letter of credit, and shall designate Company as beneficiary with authority to draw drafts on the letter of credit for amounts due Company in accordance with Articles 5(d), 7(b), (c), (e), and (f). In the event Company receives notice from the bank or financial institution that issued the letter of credit that said letter of credit will lapse or will otherwise not be in force, Company may exercise its rights under said letter of credit granted to Company by Seller and also terminate this Agreement; provided, however, that Company must first give written notice, of any such action and permit Seller five (5) business days to extend the term of said letter of credit, or to secure a replacement letter of credit that is satisfactory to Company. If Seller elects to furnish a cash escrow account, Seller shall establish by no later than one (1) business day following the receipt of a fully executed escrow agreement an interest bearing escrow account (hereinafter referred to as "Escrow Account") with a banking institution reasonably acceptable to Company and shall have deposited therein funds in an amount no less than one hundred thirty-five thousand five hundred eighteen dollars ($135,518.00). The Escrow Account shall be established for the benefit of Company in the event of Cancellation of the Facility. At least five (5) business days prior to the first day of each month, beginning five (5) business days prior to March 1, 1994, Seller shall maintain on deposit in the Escrow Account an amount equal to the maximum potential liability that Seller will be required to pay under this Article 7 for Cancellation of the Facility during the following month, as calculated pursuant to Articles 5(d), 7(b), (c), (e) and (f), including accumulated interest, as shown in Appendix C. Seller may, at any time and from time to time, withdraw from the Escrow Account any amounts in excess of the Contract Deposit. Seller may at any time elect to substitute a letter of credit for an Escrow Account or an Escrow Account for a letter of credit to secure the Contract Deposit, provided that Company shall receive notice of such substitution at least five (5) business days in advance thereof and provided further that at no point in time shall Seller fail to fully secure the Contract Deposit. Upon the substitution of a letter of credit for the Escrow Account, Company shall promptly release all funds in the Escrow Account to Seller. Except as expressly amended, the terms of the Agreement are unchanged and the Agreement is in all other respects ratified and confirmed. This Amendment and the Agreement shall be binding upon the parties hereto, their successors and assigns. Unless specifically stated otherwise, the terms used herein shall have the same meaning as set forth in the Agreement. IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties have executed this Amendment as of the date first written above. EASTERN EDISON COMPANY ("Company"): By: Date: February 14, 1994 John D.
