in any other manner whatsoever. The Parties acknowledge that no fiduciary or advisory relationship between the Service Provider, on the one hand, and the Service Recipients, on the other, has been created by this Agreement. Each YieldCo Party
waives, on its own behalf and on behalf of the other Service Recipients, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any claims they may have against the Service Provider for breach of fiduciary duty or alleged breach of fiduciary duty and agrees that
the Service Provider shall have no liability (whether direct or indirect) to the Service Recipients in respect of such a fiduciary duty claim or to any person asserting a fiduciary duty claim on behalf of or in right of the Service Recipients,
including the owners, employees or creditors of the Service Recipients. 
 ARTICLE V 

MANAGEMENT AND EMPLOYEES 

(a) The Service Provider shall arrange, or shall arrange for another member of the Service Provider Group to arrange, for such qualified
personnel and support staff to be available to carry out the Services for the Service Recipients. Such personnel and support staff shall devote such time to the provision of the Services to the Service Recipients as the relevant member of the
Service Provider Group reasonably deems necessary and appropriate in order to fulfill its obligations hereunder. Such personnel and support staff need not have as their primary responsibility the provision of the Services to the Service Recipients
or be dedicated exclusively to the provision of the Services to the Service Recipients. The Service Provider shall at all times and at its sole discretion have the right to remove or replace any such personnel or member of such support staff. 

(b) Each YieldCo Party shall, and shall cause each of the other Service Recipients to, do all things reasonably necessary on its part as
requested by any member of the Service Provider Group consistent with the terms of this Agreement to enable the members of the Service Provider Group to fulfill their obligations, covenants and responsibilities and to exercise


  
 11 








 
their rights pursuant to this Agreement, including making available to the Service Provider Group, and granting the Service Provider Group access to, the employees and contractors of the Service
Recipients as any member of the Service Provider Group may from time to time reasonably request. 
 (c) The Service Provider covenants and
agrees to, and to cause any other member of the Service Provider Group to, exercise the power and discharge the duties conferred under this Agreement diligently and in good faith, and shall exercise the degree of care, diligence and skill that a
reasonably prudent person would exercise in comparable circumstances, in each case, in accordance with the terms hereof. 
 ARTICLE VI

 INFORMATION AND RECORDS 
  

	 	6.1	Books and Records 

 The Service Provider shall, or shall cause any other member of the
Service Provider Group to, as applicable, maintain proper books and records on behalf of each Service Recipient in conformity in all material respects with GAAP and all requirements of Laws and in the ordinary course of business consistent with past
practice. 
  

	 	6.2	Examination of Records by the Service Recipients 

 Upon reasonable prior notice by the
Service Recipients to the relevant member of the Service Provider Group, the relevant member of the Service Provider Group will make available to the Service Recipients and their authorized representatives, for examination during normal business
hours on any Business Day, all books and records required to be maintained under Section 6.1. For the avoidance of doubt, none of the members of the Service Provider Group shall have any obligation hereunder to provide data for costs,
fees or expenses that are not paid or reimbursed pursuant to Section 7.3. Any examination of books and records will be conducted in a manner which will not unduly interfere with the conduct of the Service Recipients’ activities or
of the Service Provider Group’s business in the ordinary course. 
  

	 	6.3	Access to Information by Service Provider Group 

 Each YieldCo Party shall, and shall
cause the other Service Recipients to: 
 (a) grant, or cause to be granted, to the Service Provider Group full access to all documentation
and information reasonably necessary in order for the Service Provider Group to perform its obligations, covenants and responsibilities pursuant to the terms hereof, including to enable the Service Provider Group to provide the Services; and 

(b) provide, or cause to be provided, all documentation and information as may be reasonably requested by any member of the Service Provider
Group, and promptly notify the appropriate member of the Service Provider Group of any material facts or information of which the Service Recipients are aware, including any known, pending or threatened suits, actions,


  
 12 








 
claims, proceedings or orders by or against any member of the YieldCo Group before any Governmental Entity, that may affect the performance of the obligations, covenants or responsibilities of
the Service Provider Group pursuant to this Agreement, including maintenance of proper financial records. 
  

	 	6.4	Additional Information 

 The Parties acknowledge and agree that conducting the
activities and providing the Services contemplated herein may have the incidental effect of providing additional information which may be utilized with respect to, or may augment the value of, business interests and related assets in which any
member of the Service Provider Group or any of its Affiliates has an interest and that, subject to compliance with this Agreement, none of the members of the Service Provider Group nor any of their respective Affiliates will be liable to account to
the Service Recipients with respect to such activities or results; provided that, in making any use of such additional information, the relevant member of the Service Provider Group will not, and will cause its Affiliates not to, do so in any
manner that the member of the Service Provider Group or its Affiliates knows, or ought reasonably to know, would cause or result in a breach of any confidentiality provision of agreements to which any Service Recipient is a party or is bound.

amount of the investment made (or that would have been made in the case of an unconsummated acquisition) among members of the YieldCo Group and such other Persons; and 

(viii) premiums, deductibles and other costs, fees and expenses for insurance policies covering assets of the Service Recipients and other
members of the YieldCo Group, together with other applicable insurance in respect of the members of the YieldCo Group against other risks. 

Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, the Service Provider shall be under no obligation to (i) incur any Expenses

or any variance thereof that has been approved by YieldCo General Partner. 

  
 14

Company, on behalf of the Partnership Group, and Holdings, on behalf of itself, shall pay or reimburse the applicable member of the Service Provider Group for all sales taxes, use taxes, value added taxes, withholding taxes or other similar taxes,

payable hereunder or thereunder, except for any income taxes, corporate taxes, capital gains taxes or other similar taxes payable by any member of the Service Provider Group that are personal to such member of the Service Provider Group. Any failure
by the Service Provider Group to collect monies on account of these Service Taxes shall not constitute a waiver of the right to do so.

 The Service Provider will prepare and
deliver to the Operating Company or Holdings, as applicable, in no event later than the 15th day following the end of each month, a detailed invoice (each, an “Expense Statement”)
showing, as applicable (a) the Partnership Group Monthly Fee Amount or the Holdings Monthly Fee Amount payable by the Operating Company or Holdings with respect to such preceding month, (b) all applicable Expenses incurred or paid by the
Service Provider during such preceding month and (c) all applicable Service Taxes incurred or paid by the Service Provider during such preceding month; provided that, if the Service Provider fails to include any of the foregoing for any
calendar month in the Expense Statement for such month, then the Service Provider shall be entitled to include such amount in a subsequent Expense Statement. As soon as practicable following delivery of any Expense Statement, but in no event later
than the 30th day following the end of such month, the Operating Company or Holdings shall remit the Partnership Group Management Fee or the Holdings Management Fee, as applicable, all Expenses and all Service Taxes set forth on the Expense
Statement due to the Service Provider. Within three (3) Business Days following the delivery of such Expense Statement to the Operating Company or Holdings, the Operating Company or Holdings, as applicable, may object to the Partnership Group
Management Fee or the Holdings Management Fee, Expenses or Service Taxes set forth therein, or any portion of any such amount, in writing; provided that, any undisputed amount of the Partnership Group Management Fee or the Holdings Management
Fee, Expenses and Service Taxes shall be paid by the Operating Company or Holdings, as applicable, in accordance with the foregoing sentence.

member of the Service Provider Group hereunder that is not remitted when so due will remain due (whether on demand or otherwise), and interest will accrue on such overdue amounts (both before and after judgment) at a rate per annum equal to the
Interest Rate.

 Each Party shall have the right to change the place to which notices shall be sent or delivered or to specify one additional
address to which copies of notices may be sent, in either case by similar notice sent or delivered in like manner to the other Party. Without limiting any other means by which a Party may be able to prove that a notice has been received by another
Party, all notices and communications shall be deemed to have been duly given: (i) at the time delivered by hand, if personally delivered; (ii) five (5) Business Days after being deposited in the mail, postage prepaid, if mailed by
first class certified mail, receipt requested; (iii) when received, if sent by facsimile or email, if received prior to 5 p.m., recipient’s time, on a Business Day, or on the next Business Day, if received later than 5 p.m.,
recipient’s time; and (iv) on the next Business Day after timely delivery to the courier, if sent by overnight air courier guaranteeing next day delivery. In any case hereunder in which a Party is required or permitted to respond to a
notice from another Party within a specified period, such period shall run from the date on which the notice was deemed duly given as above provided, and the response shall be considered to be timely given if given as above provided by the last day
of the period provided for such response. 
 11.2 Time is of the Essence. Time is of the essence of this Agreement;
provided, however, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, if the time period for the performance of any covenant or obligation, satisfaction of any condition or delivery of any notice or item required under this
Agreement shall expire on a day other than a Business Day, such time period shall be extended automatically to the next Business Day.

 11.3 Assignment 

(a) This Agreement shall not be assigned by the Service Provider without the prior written consent of the YieldCo General Partner (which shall
not be unreasonably withheld), except (i) in the case of assignment to a Person that is the Service Provider’s successor by merger, consolidation or purchase of assets, in which case the successor shall be bound under this Agreement and by
the terms of the assignment in the same manner as the Service Provider is bound under this Agreement, (ii) to an Affiliate of the Sponsor or a Person that, in the reasonable and good faith determination of the YieldCo General Partner’s
board of directors and the conflicts committee thereof, is an experienced and reputable manager, in which case the Affiliate or assignee shall be bound under this Agreement and by the terms of the assignment in the same manner as the Service
Provider is bound under this Agreement, or (iii) pursuant to Section 2.3 hereof. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing contained in this Agreement shall preclude (i) any pledge, hypothecation or other transfer or assignment of
the Service Provider’s rights, title and interest under this Agreement, including any amounts payable to the Service Provider under this Agreement, to a bona fide Financing Party as security for debt financing to the Service
Provider or any other member of the Service Provider Group, or (ii) the assignment of such rights, title and interest under this Agreement upon exercise of remedies by a Financing Party following a default by the Service Provider or any other
member of the Service Provider Group under financing agreements entered into with the Financing Parties. 
 (b) This Agreement shall
not be assigned by any of the Service Recipients without the prior written consent of the Service Provider, except in the case of assignment by any such Service Recipient to a Person that is its successor by merger, consolidation or purchase of
assets, in which case the successor shall be bound under this Agreement and by the terms of the assignment in the same manner as such Service Recipient is bound under this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing contained in this Agreement
shall preclude (i) any pledge, hypothecation or other transfer or assignment of any YieldCo Party’s rights, title and interest under this Agreement, including any amounts payable to such YieldCo Party or any other member of the YieldCo
Group under this Agreement, to a bona fide Financing Party as security for debt financing to such YieldCo Party or any other member of the YieldCo Group or (ii) the assignment of such rights, title and interest under this Agreement
upon exercise of remedies by a Financing Party following a default by such YieldCo Party or any other member of the YieldCo Group under financing agreements entered into with the Financing Parties. 

(c) Notwithstanding the provisions in Section 11.1(a) and Section 11.3(b), the Service Provider may assign its right
to receive the Management Fee hereunder, in whole or in part, to any person without the consent of any other party hereto. 
 (d) Any
purported assignment of this Agreement in violation of this Section 11.3 shall be null and void. 
 11.4 Parties in
Interest. This Agreement is binding upon and is for the benefit of the Parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns. This Agreement is 

  
 26 








 
not made for the benefit of any Person not a party hereto, and no Person other than the Parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns will acquire or have any benefit,
right, remedy or claim under or by virtue of this Agreement. 
 11.5 Other Activities. No Party hereto shall be prohibited
from engaging in or holding an interest in any other business ventures of any kind or description, or any responsibility to account to the other for the income or profits of any such enterprises or have this Agreement be deemed to constitute any
agreement not to compete. This Agreement shall not be deemed to create a partnership, joint venture, association or any other similar relationship between the Parties. 

11.6 Captions. All Section titles or captions contained in this Agreement or in any Schedule referred to herein and the table of
contents of this Agreement are for convenience only and shall not be deemed to be a part of this Agreement or affect the meaning or interpretation of this Agreement. 

11.7 GOVERNING LAW. THIS AGREEMENT, INCLUDING THE FORMATION, BREACH, TERMINATION, VALIDITY, INTERPRETATION AND ENFORCEMENT
THEREOF, AND ALL TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED BY THIS AGREEMENT, SHALL IN ALL RESPECTS BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF DELAWARE, WITHOUT GIVING EFFECT TO PRINCIPLES OR RULES OF CONFLICT OF LAWS, TO THE EXTENT
SUCH PRINCIPLES OR RULES WOULD PERMIT OR REQUIRE THE APPLICATION OF THE LAWS OF ANOTHER JURISDICTION. FOR THE AVOIDANCE OF DOUBT, IT IS INTENDED THAT 6 DEL. C. § 2708, WHICH PROVIDES FOR ENFORCEMENT OF DELAWARE CHOICE OF LAW WHETHER OR NOT
THERE ARE OTHER RELATIONSHIPS WITH DELAWARE, SHALL APPLY. 
 11.8 Severability. Whenever possible each provision and term of
this agreement will be interpreted in a manner to be effective and valid. If any term or provision of this Agreement or the application of any such term or provision to any Person or circumstance shall be held invalid, illegal or unenforceable in
any respect by a court of competent jurisdiction, the remaining provisions hereof, or the application of such term or provision to Persons or circumstances other than those as to which it has been held invalid, illegal or unenforceable, will remain
in full force and effect and will in no way be affected, impaired or invalidated thereby. If any term or provision of this Agreement is held to be prohibited or invalid, then such term or provision will be ineffective only to the extent of such
prohibition or invalidity without invalidating or affecting in any manner whatsoever the remainder of such term or provision or the other terms and provisions of this Agreement. Upon determination that any other term or provision of this Agreement
is invalid, void, illegal, or unenforceable, a court of competent jurisdiction will modify such term or provision so as to effect the original intent of the Parties as closely as possible in an acceptable manner to the end that the transactions
contemplated hereby are fulfilled to the fullest extent possible under the Law. 
 11.9 Consent to Jurisdiction. Each of the
Parties hereto irrevocably and unconditionally confirms and agrees (a) that it is and shall continue to be subject to the jurisdiction of the courts of the State of 

  
 27 








 
Delaware and of the federal courts sitting in the State of Delaware and (b)(i) to the extent that such Party is not otherwise subject to service of process in the State of Delaware, to appoint
and maintain an agent in the State of Delaware as such Party’s agent for acceptance of legal process and notify the other Parties hereto of the name and address of such agent, and (ii) to the fullest extent permitted by Law, that service
of process may also be made on such Party by prepaid certified mail with a proof of mailing receipt validated by the U.S. Postal Service constituting evidence of valid service, and that, to the fullest extent permitted by Law, service made pursuant
to (b)(i) or (ii) above shall have the same legal force and effect as if served upon such Party personally within the State of Delaware. TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY
(A) CONSENTS AND SUBMITS TO THE EXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION OF ANY FEDERAL OR STATE COURT LOCATED IN THE STATE OF DELAWARE, INCLUDING THE DELAWARE COURT OF CHANCERY IN AND FOR NEW CASTLE COUNTY (THE “DELAWARE COURTS”) FOR ANY
ACTIONS, SUITS OR PROCEEDINGS ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED BY THIS AGREEMENT (AND AGREES NOT TO COMMENCE ANY LITIGATION RELATING THERETO EXCEPT IN SUCH COURTS), (B) WAIVES ANY OBJECTION TO THE
LAYING OF VENUE OF ANY SUCH LITIGATION IN THE DELAWARE COURTS AND AGREES NOT TO PLEAD OR CLAIM IN ANY DELAWARE COURT THAT SUCH LITIGATION BROUGHT THEREIN HAS BEEN BROUGHT IN ANY INCONVENIENT FORUM AND (C) ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT ANY
CONTROVERSY THAT MAY ARISE UNDER THIS AGREEMENT IS LIKELY TO INVOLVE COMPLICATED AND DIFFICULT ISSUES, AND THEREFORE EACH SUCH PARTY HEREBY IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT SUCH PARTY MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY
LITIGATION DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED BY THIS AGREEMENT. 
 11.10
Entire Agreement. This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement between the Parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and this Agreement supersedes all prior negotiations, agreements or understandings of the Parties of any nature,
whether oral or written, relating thereto. For the avoidance of doubt, nothing in this Agreement should be construed or interpreted as an amendment, modification or termination of, or conflict with, any of the Operating and Administrative
Agreements. Each such agreement, and all its terms, including payments to be made thereunder, shall survive the entry into this Agreement and shall terminate in accordance with its terms. 

11.11 Amendment. Except as expressly provided for herein, this Agreement may be modified, amended or supplemented only by
written agreement executed by the YieldCo General Partner, the Partnership, the Operating Company and the Service Provider. 
 11.12
Waiver; Remedies. No delay on the part of the Service Provider or the YieldCo General Partner, the Partnership or the Operating Company in exercising any right, power or privilege hereunder will operate as a waiver thereof, nor will any
waiver on the part of the Service Provider or the YieldCo General Partner, the Partnership or the Operating Company of any right, power or privilege hereunder operate as a waiver of any other right, power or privilege hereunder, nor will any single
or partial exercise of any right, power or privilege hereunder preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege hereunder.

 11.13 Facsimile; Counterparts. Any Party may deliver executed signature pages to
this Agreement by facsimile transmission to the other Parties, which facsimile copy shall be deemed to be an original executed signature page. This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, each of which will be deemed an original, but
all of which together will constitute a single instrument.
