LC. The Borrower further agrees with the LC Issuers and the Lenders that none of the LC
Issuers or Lenders shall be responsible for, and no Reimbursement Obligation in respect
of any Facility LC shall be affected by, among other things, (i)&nbsp;the validity or
genuineness of documents or of any endorsements thereon, even if such documents should in
fact prove to be in any or all respects invalid, fraudulent or forged, (ii)&nbsp;any
dispute between or among the Borrower, any of its Affiliates, the beneficiary of any
Facility LC or any financing institution or other party to which any Facility LC may be
transferred or (iii) any claims or defenses whatsoever of the Borrower or any of its
Affiliates against the beneficiary of any Facility LC or any such transferee. Neither LC
Issuer shall be liable for any error, omission, interruption or delay in transmission,
dispatch or delivery of any message or advice, however transmitted, in connection with
any Facility LC. The Borrower agrees that any action taken or omitted by any LC Issuer or
Lender under or in connection with any Facility LC and the related drafts and documents,
if done without gross negligence or willful misconduct, shall be binding upon the
Borrower and shall not put any LC Issuer or Lender under any liability to the Borrower.
Nothing in this Section&nbsp;2.16.7 is intended to limit the right of the Borrower to
make a claim against either LC Issuer for damages as contemplated by the proviso to the
first sentence of Section&nbsp;2.16.6.  </FONT>

possible, each Lender shall designate an alternate Lending Installation with respect to
its Eurodollar Loans to reduce any liability of the Borrower to such Lender under
Sections 3.1, 3.2 and 3.5 or to avoid the unavailability of Eurodollar Advances under
Section&nbsp;3.3, so long as such designation is not, in the judgment of such Lender,
disadvantageous to such Lender. Each Lender or LC Issuer, as applicable, shall deliver a
written statement thereof to the Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) as to
the amount due, if any, under Section&nbsp;3.1, 3.2, 3.4 or 3.5. Such written statement
shall set forth in reasonable detail the calculations upon which such Lender or LC Issuer
determined such amount and shall be final, conclusive and binding on the Borrower in the
absence of manifest error. Determination of amounts payable under such Sections in
connection with a Eurodollar Loan shall be calculated as though each Lender funded its
Eurodollar Loan through the purchase of a deposit of the type and maturity corresponding
to the deposits described in clause (ii)&nbsp;of the proviso contained in the definition
of &#147;Eurodollar Base Rate&#148; in Section&nbsp;1.1, whether in fact that is the case
or not. Unless otherwise provided herein, the amount specified in the written statement
of any Lender or LC Issuer shall be payable on demand after receipt by the Borrower of
such written statement. The obligations of the Borrower under Sections 3.1, 3.2, 3.4 and
3.5 shall survive payment of the Obligations and termination of this Agreement.  </FONT></P>

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<U>Appointment; Nature of Relationship</U>. UBOC is hereby appointed by
each of the Lenders as its contractual representative (herein referred to as the &#147;<B><I>Administrative
Agent</I></B><I></I>&#148;) hereunder and under each other Loan Document, and each of the
Lenders irrevocably authorizes the Administrative Agent to act as the contractual
representative of such Lender with the rights and duties expressly set forth herein and
in the other Loan Documents. The Administrative Agent agrees to act as such contractual
representative upon the express conditions contained in this Article&nbsp;10.
Notwithstanding the use of the defined term &#147;Administrative Agent,&#148; it is
expressly understood and agreed that the Administrative Agent shall not have any
fiduciary responsibilities to any Lender by reason of this Agreement or any other Loan
Document and that the Administrative Agent is merely acting as the contractual
representative of the Lenders with only those duties as are expressly set forth in this
Agreement and the other Loan Documents. In its capacity as the Lenders&#146; contractual
representative, the Administrative Agent (i)&nbsp;does not hereby assume any fiduciary
duties to any of the Lenders, (ii)&nbsp;is a &#147;representative&#148; of the Lenders
within the meaning of the term &#147;secured party&#148; as defined in the California
Uniform Commercial Code and (iii)&nbsp;is acting as an independent contractor, the rights
and duties of which are limited to those expressly set forth in this Agreement and the
other Loan Documents. Each of the Lenders hereby agrees to assert no claim against the
Administrative Agent on any agency theory or any other theory of liability for breach of
fiduciary duty, all of which claims each Lender hereby waives.  </FONT></P>

resignation to be effective upon the appointment of a successor Administrative Agent or,
if no successor Administrative Agent has been appointed, 45 days after the retiring
Administrative Agent gives notice of its intention to resign. The Administrative Agent
may be removed at any time with or without cause by written notice received by the
Administrative Agent from the Required Lenders, such removal to be effective on the date
specified by the Required Lenders. Upon any such resignation or removal, the Required
Lenders with the consent of the Borrower (so long as no Default or Unmatured Default
exists), which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed, shall have the
right to appoint, on behalf of the Borrower, Puget Energy and the Lenders, a successor
Administrative Agent. If no successor Administrative Agent shall have been so appointed
by the Required Lenders within thirty days after the resigning Administrative Agent&#146;s
giving notice of its intention to resign, then the resigning Administrative Agent may
appoint, on behalf of the Borrower, Puget Energy and the Lenders, a successor
Administrative Agent. Notwithstanding the previous sentence, the Administrative Agent may
at any time, without the consent of the Borrower or any Lender, appoint any of its
Affiliates which is a commercial bank as a successor Administrative Agent hereunder. If
the Administrative Agent has resigned or been removed and no successor Administrative
Agent has been appointed, the Lenders may perform all the duties of the Administrative
Agent hereunder, and the Borrower shall make all payments in respect of the Obligations
to the applicable Lender and for all other purposes shall deal directly with the Lenders.
No successor Administrative Agent shall be deemed to be appointed hereunder until such
successor Administrative Agent has accepted the appointment. Any such successor
Administrative Agent shall be a commercial bank having capital and retained earnings of
at least $100,000,000. Upon the acceptance of any appointment as Administrative Agent
hereunder by a successor Administrative Agent, such successor Administrative Agent shall
thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties
of the resigning or removed Administrative Agent. Upon the effectiveness of the
resignation or removal of the Administrative Agent, the resigning or removed
Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder and
under the Loan Documents. After the effectiveness of the resignation or removal of an
Administrative Agent, the provisions of this Article&nbsp;10 shall continue in effect for
the benefit of such Administrative Agent in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be
taken by it while it was acting as the Administrative Agent hereunder and under the other
Loan Documents. In the event that there is a successor to the Administrative Agent by
merger, or the Administrative Agent assigns its duties and obligations to an Affiliate
pursuant to this Section&nbsp;10.12, then the term &#147;Reference Rate&#148; as used in
this Agreement shall mean the reference rate, prime rate, corporate base rate or other
analogous rate of the new Administrative Agent.  </FONT></P>

Administrative Agent of an assignment, together with any consent(s) required by Section&nbsp;12.3.1,
and (ii)&nbsp;payment of a $3,500 fee to the Administrative Agent by the Purchaser or
transferor Lender for processing such assignment (unless such fee is waived by the
Administrative Agent), such assignment shall become effective on the effective date
specified in such assignment. The assignment shall contain a representation by the
Purchaser to the effect that none of the consideration used to make the purchase of the
Commitment and Outstanding Credit Exposure under the applicable assignment agreement
constitutes &#147;plan assets&#148; as defined under ERISA and that the rights and
interests of the Purchaser in and under the Loan Documents will not be &#147;plan assets&#148; under
ERISA. On and after the effective date of such assignment, such Purchaser shall for all
purposes be a Lender party to this Agreement and any other Loan Document executed by or
on behalf of the Lenders and shall have all the rights and obligations of a Lender under
the Loan Documents, to the same extent as if it were an original party hereto, and no
further consent or action by the Borrower, Puget Energy, the Lenders or the
Administrative Agent shall be required to release the transferor Lender with respect to
the percentage of the Aggregate Commitment and Loans assigned to such Purchaser. Upon the
consummation of any assignment to a Purchaser pursuant to this Section&nbsp;12.3.3, the
transferor Lender, the Administrative Agent and the Borrower shall, if the transferor
Lender or the Purchaser desires that its Loans be evidenced by a Note, make appropriate
arrangements so that a new Note or, as appropriate, a replacement Note is issued to such
transferor Lender and a new Note or, as appropriate, a replacement Note is issued to such
Purchaser, in each case in principal amounts reflecting their respective Commitments, as

<P><FONT FACE="Times New Roman, Times, Serif" SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The
Applicable Eurodollar Margin, Applicable Commitment Fee Rate and Applicable LC Fee Rate
shall be determined in accordance with the foregoing table based on Puget Energy&#146;s

date. </FONT></P>

Puget Energy is split-rated (other than at BBB- / Ba1) and the ratings differential is one

differential is two levels or more, the intermediate rating at the midpoint will apply. If

issuer ratings from S&amp;P and Moody&#146;s. (For example, if PSE&#146;s issuer ratings
were BBB- from S&amp;P and Baa3 from Moody&#146;s, two levels below those ratings would
place the Borrower at the &lt; BB / Ba2 level on the grid.) </FONT></P>

Guaranteed Obligations (including, if applicable, the obligation to provide cash
collateral pursuant to the last sentence of Section 2.16.1 of the Credit Agreement) and
all amounts payable under this Guaranty have been paid in full and the Commitments have
terminated, each Guarantor hereby irrevocably waives any claims and other rights that it

from the existence, payment, performance or enforcement of the former Guarantor&#146;s
obligations under this Guaranty or any other Loan Document, including any right of
subrogation, reimbursement, exoneration, contribution or indemnification and any right to
participate in any claim or remedy of the Administrative Agent or any Lender against the
Borrower, any other Guarantor or any collateral that the Administrative Agent or any
Lender now has or hereafter acquires, whether or not such claim, remedy or right arises
in equity or under contract, statute or common law, including the right to take or

such claim or other right. If any amount is paid to any Guarantor in violation of the
preceding sentence, such amount shall be deemed to have been paid to such Guarantor for

the Lenders and shall be forthwith paid to the Administrative Agent for the benefit of
the Lenders to be credited and applied upon the Guaranteed Obligations, whether matured

acknowledges that it will receive direct and indirect benefits from the financing
arrangements contemplated by the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents and that
the waiver set forth in this Section&nbsp;4 is knowingly made in contemplation of such
benefits. Each waiver made by the Guarantors under this Guaranty, including the waiver in
this section, shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at

be returned by the Administrative Agent, any Lender or any other Person upon the
