6. Customer Transition.


 


(a) Customer Communication.  The Parties hereby agree and acknowledge that (i) SunRun shall deliver the initial notification to the Host Customers (as defined in the Akeena EPC) of the Pending Solar Facilities of the effect of this Agreement and the fact that Real Goods will construct such Pending Solar Facilities instead of Akeena, and (ii) after such initial notification Real Goods shall be responsible for contacting such Host Customers regarding Real Goods’ construction of such Pending Solar Facility.

7. Security or Escrow Arrangement.


 


(a) Security or Escrow.  Real Goods and Akeena hereby covenant and agree to enter into a separate agreement (“Security Agreement”) whereby Akeena will provide to Real Goods either i) a bond, letter of credit, insurance policy or similar guarantee (“Security”)on terms reasonably acceptable to Real Goods or ii) a cash escrow arrangement that is reasonably acceptable to Real Goods; in either case, representing [***] of collateral (the “Collateral Amount”), for the performance of Akeena’s obligations to compensate Real Goods for Ordinary-Course-of Business Warranty Claims under Section 3(a) of this Agreement.  The terms of such Security and the Security Agreement are to be promptly provided in writing to SunRun after agreement is reached.  In the event that Real Goods and Akeena fail to enter into the Security Agreement by [***] (the “Collateral Deadline”), Akeena shall promptly deposit the Collateral Amount into an escrow account (in which Real Goods will have a perfected priority security interest) to be held for the purposes of satisfying Akeena’s collateral obligation to Real Goods hereunder and under that certain Supply and Warranty Agreement by and between Akeena and Real Goods dated as of the date hereof (the “Escrow Deposit”).


 


(b) Offset.  The Parties agree that if Real Goods and Akeena have not entered into the Security Agreement, or Akeena fails to make the Escrow Deposit within five (5) days following the Collateral Deadline (excepting weekend and bank holiday days), SunRun may withhold any amounts due (“Withheld Amounts”) from SunRun to Akeena under the Akeena EPC or any other agreements between SunRun and Akeena up to the Collateral Amount.

(c) Terms; Reduction.


 


(i) The terms of the Security Agreement or Escrow Deposit, as applicable, will provide that Real Goods shall be allowed to immediately draw upon the bond, letter of credit, insurance policy or guarantee or Escrow Deposit, as applicable, in the event that Akeena fails to reimburse Real Goods for any service on a Ordinary-Course-of-Business Warranty Claim within 30 days of delivery by Real Goods of an invoice therefore.
