Michael E. Bray, President and Chief Operating Officer	$	2,019,098
Theodore A. Babcock, Chief Financial Officer	$	880,586
Kathleen A. Marion, Corporate Secretary	$	380,631

The following is a brief description of the material terms and conditions of each employment agreement:

William J. Catacosinos. Dr. Catacosinos was employed by TNP as its Chairman and Chief Executive Officer pursuant to an employment agreement dated as of April 7, 2000. The original three year term of his agreement was automatically extended for additional one-year periods on each anniversary date of the agreement, unless either Dr. Catacosinos or TNP gave notice to the other at least 90 days prior to any such anniversary date that the agreement term, as then extended, would not be extended beyond its then automatically extended term.

Under his agreement, Dr. Catacosinos received an annual base salary of $1,550,000 per year beginning with the third year of the original agreement term, and was entitled to participate in all incentive, pension, retirement, savings, 401(k) and other employee pension benefit plans and programs that TNP and/or TNMP maintained for the benefit of its senior management executives. He was also entitled to participate in all of TNP’s and TNMP’s other compensation and employee benefit plans or programs and receive officer perquisites.

Upon Dr. Catacosinos’ resignation for Good Reason (as his agreement defines such terms, including a change of control) or termination without Cause (as his agreement defines such terms), he was entitled to receive his base salary at the rate then in effect for a period of 18 months after the termination. Such termination or resignation would require 30 days prior written notice to the affected party. Dr. Catacosinos was also entitled to any accrued but unpaid base salary, immediate payment of any unpaid compensation due to him as of the termination date, reimbursement of all reasonable business expenses incurred but not yet paid, payment for all unused accrued vacation days, and any other compensation and benefits payable pursuant to any applicable TNP and/or TNMP plans or programs. The agreement also contained provisions relating to payments that would be payable to Dr. Catacosinos, if he had been terminated for Cause or resigned without Good Reason, or to Dr. Catacosinos, his estate or his legal representative if he had died or become disabled. Dr. Catacosinos was notified on April 29, 2005 that he would no longer be employed by TNP after close and his employment was terminated effective June 6, 2005.

Mr. Babcock and Ms. Marion. TNP entered into three-year employment agreements with Theodore A. Babcock and Kathleen A. Marion as of March 15, 2001. The employment agreements were amended for two additional years on February 3, 2004. Mr. Babcock’s and Ms. Marion’s employment agreements specified their positions, duties, and set the compensation and benefits each would be provided during the agreement term. Each agreement specified that the officer would receive a minimum level of compensation during each year of the agreement’s term and participate in all company benefit plans. The minimum

compensation for Mr. Babcock was $230,000 and for Ms. Marion was $100,000. This compensation consisted of:

•

an annual base salary

•

an annual incentive bonus ranging from 0 percent to 37.5 percent of the executive’s base salary based on the executive’s attainment of certain pre-established financial and operational goals, and subject to employment through the end of the relevant calendar year; the target annual incentive bonus was equal to 25 percent of base salary in each case

Each agreement provided that if TNP terminated the officer for any reason other than for Cause (as each agreement defined such terms) or if the officer resigned for Good Reason (as each agreement defined such terms), he or she would be entitled to the greater of either (a) a continuation of the officer’s then-current annual salary for a period of 18 months, and any annual incentive bonus that would become payable during the 18 month period, pro-rated for any partial year, or (b) a lump sum payment equal to the then current annual salary divided by twelve and multiplied by the total number of months between the date of termination of such officer and the termination date of the agreement, plus an amount equal to the incentive compensation for the year in which the termination occurs, pro rated for the number of months employed during that year. In addition, each officer would be vested in the pension benefit and entitled to credit on his or her pension plan accruals based on his or her annual salary immediately prior to termination applied to the months between such termination and March 15, 2006.

In addition, if, upon a change of control, the officer was terminated without Cause or terminated his or her employment for Good Reason, the officer would be entitled to a lump sum payment equal to three times the officer’s then current annual salary and medical insurance for three years at a cost to the executive equal to that paid by TNP employees. The lump sum would be grossed up by the amounts of any excise taxes payable on such lump sum, pursuant to Section 4999 of the Internal Revenue Code, as amended, and any additional excise and income taxes that result from such gross up payment.

Mr. Bray. TNP entered into a three-year employment agreement with Michael E. Bray as of January 19, 2004. Mr. Bray’s employment agreement provided that:

•

during each year of his agreement’s term, he would receive a base salary of at least $450,000 and an annual incentive bonus of between 0 percent and 37.5 percent of his base salary, based on the attainment of financial and operational goals to be established at the beginning of each year; Mr. Bray’s incentive bonus in 2004 shall not be less than $150,000

•

if TNP terminated him for any reason other than Cause or if he resigned for Good Reason (each term is defined in his employment agreement), he would be entitled to receive either:

•

a lump sump payment equal to the continuation of his then-current annual salary for a period of 18 months, plus an amount equal to the incentive compensation for the year in which the termination occurs, pro rated for the number of months employed during that year, or

•

a lump sum payment equal to his then current annual salary divided by 12 and multiplied times the total number of months between the date of termination and expiration of the agreement, plus an amount equal to the incentive compensation for the year in which the termination occurs, pro rated for the number of months employed during that year; and

•

medical insurance at a cost equal to that paid by TNP employees for the greater of (a) 18 months or (b) the period from the termination until the expiration of the agreement

•

if Mr. Bray was terminated without Cause or terminates his employment for Good Reason in the event of a change of control of TNP, he would be entitled to a lump sum equal to three times his then current annual salary, and medical insurance for three years at a cost to him equal to that paid by employees of TNP; the lump sum would be grossed up by the amounts of any excise taxes payable on such lump sum, pursuant to Section 4999 of the Internal Revenue Code, as amended, and any additional excise and income taxes that result from such gross up payment

•

if Mr. Bray was terminated for any reason other than Cause, he will be vested in the pension benefit and entitled to credit on his pension plan accruals based on his annual salary immediately prior to termination applied to the months between his termination and January 1, 2007

In addition, each officer was entitled to receive the benefits described in paragraphs (b) and (c), above only if the officer executed a release in such form as TNMP requires releasing TNMP from any and all further liability in connection with such termination, and such release becomes effective by its terms.

Each agreement would terminate upon the earliest of (a) the date that all obligations of the parties to the respective agreement have been satisfied; (b) the date, prior to a change of control, that the officer is no longer employed by TNMP; (c) the second anniversary of a change of control; and (d) April 7, 2006, the third anniversary of the effective date of the respective agreements.
