        WHEREAS, SCANA Services is a direct or indirect wholly owned subsidiary of SCANA Corporation;

        WHEREAS, SCANA Services has been formed for the purpose of providing administrative, management and other services to subsidiaries of SCANA Corporation; and

        WHEREAS, the Company believes that it is in the interest of the Company to provide for an arrangement whereby the Company may, from time to time and at the option of the Company, agree to purchase such administrative, management and other services from SCANA Services:

        NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants contained herein and other valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto, intending to be legally bound, hereby agree as follows:

        V.    TERMINATION AND MODIFICATION.    The Company may terminate this Agreement by providing 60 days written notice of such termination to SCANA Services. SCANA Services may terminate this Agreement by providing 60 days written notice of such termination to the Company.

This Agreement shall be subject to the approval of any state commission or other state regulatory body whose approval is, by the laws of said state, a legal prerequisite to the execution and delivery or the performance of this Agreement.

        VI.    SERVICE REQUESTS.    The Company and SCANA Services initially prepared a Service Request listing services to be provided to the Company by SCANA Services and any special arrangements related to the provision of such services. On or before November 1st of each year, SCANA Services will prepare a revised Service Request listing services to be provided to the Company by SCANA Services and any special arrangements related to the provision of such services for the following calendar year, based on services provided during the past calendar year. The Company and SCANA Services may supplement the Service Request during the year to reflect any additional or special services that the Company wishes to obtain from SCANA Services, and the arrangements relating thereto.

        VII.    BILLING AND PAYMENT.    Unless otherwise set forth in a Service Request, payment for services provided by SCANA Services shall be by making remittance of the amount billed or by making appropriate accounting entries on the books of the Company and SCANA Services.

        X.    MODIFICATION.    No amendment, change or modification of this Agreement shall be valid, unless made in writing and signed by all parties hereto.

        XI.    ENTIRE AGREEMENT.    This Agreement, together with its exhibits, constitutes the entire understanding and agreement of the parties with respect to its subject matter, and effective upon the execution of this Agreement by the respective parties hereof and thereto, any and all prior agreements, understandings or representations with respect to this subject matter are hereby terminated and canceled in their entirety and are of no further force or effect.

42



        XII.    WAIVER.    No waiver by any party hereto of a breach of any provision of this Agreement shall constitute a waiver of any preceding or succeeding breach of the same or any other provision hereof.

        XIII.    ASSIGNMENT.    This Agreement shall inure to the benefit and shall be binding upon the parties and their respective successors and assigns.

Description of Services, Cost Accumulation, Assignment and
Allocation Methodologies for

SCANA Services, Inc.

        This document sets forth the methodologies used to accumulate the costs of services performed by SCANA Services, Inc. ("SCANA Services") and to assign or allocate such costs to other subsidiaries and business units within SCANA Corporation ("Client Entities").

Cost of Services Performed

        SCANA Services maintains an accounting system that enables costs to be identified by Cost Center, Account Number or Project, Activity, Resource, and Event ("Account Codes"). The primary inputs to the accounting system are time records of hours worked by SCANA Services employees, accounts payable transactions and journal entries. Charges for labor are made at the employees' effective hourly rate, including the cost of pensions, other employee benefits and payroll taxes. To the extent practicable, costs of services are directly assigned to the applicable Account Codes. The full cost of providing services also includes certain indirect costs, e.g., departmental overheads, administrative and general costs, and taxes. Indirect costs are associated with the services performed in proportion to the directly assigned costs of the services or other relevant cost allocators.

Cost Assignment and Allocation

        SCANA Services costs will be directly assigned, distributed or allocated to Client Entities in the manner prescribed below.

Allocation Methods

        The following methods will be applied, as indicated in the Description of Services section that follows, to allocate costs for services of a general nature.

Description of Services

        A description of each of the services performed by SCANA Services, which may be modified from time to time, is presented below. As discussed above, where identifiable, costs will be directly assigned or distributed to Client Entities. For costs accumulated in Account Codes which are for services of a general nature that cannot be directly assigned or distributed, the method or methods of allocation are also set forth. Substitution or changes may be made in the methods of allocation hereinafter specified,

as may be appropriate, and will be provided to state regulatory agencies and to each affected Client Entity and appropriate notice (through 60-day letter or otherwise) will be given to the SEC.
