hereby amended to delete Section 14 thereof and substitute therefor a

SECTION 14. Acquisition by City. It is agreed that at some

thereof to acquire all or part of the Corporation's facilities.
In such event, upon written request by the City, the Corporation

all or part of its system; provided, that the consideration for the sale
shall be fair and reasonable, and the terms of the sale shall be approved
by the State regulatory agencies having jurisdiction, and by the Farmers

regulations may require, shall not impair the ability of the Corporation to
serve its remaining customers, and shall provide for the continuance of
service to the customers in the acquired area.
