        Agreement, dated as of July 25, 2014 and (ii) Second Amendment to Shelf Note Purchase Agreement, dated as of September 28, 2015, the “Shelf Agreement”) with PGIM, Inc. (formerly known as Prudential Investment

      B.          WHEREAS, capitalized terms used herein shall have the respective meanings ascribed thereto in the Shelf Agreement unless herein defined or the context shall otherwise require;

       

      C.          WHEREAS, the Company has requested that the Noteholders make certain amendments to the Shelf Agreement;

       

      D.          WHEREAS, the Required Holders have agreed to the Company’s amendment request and the Required Holders now desire to amend the Shelf Agreement in the respects, but only in the respects,
        hereinafter set forth; and

       

      E.          WHEREAS, all requirements of law have been fully complied with and all other acts and things necessary to make this Amendment a valid, legal and binding instrument according to its
        terms for the purposes herein expressed have been done or performed.

       

      NOW, THEREFORE, upon the full and complete satisfaction of the conditions precedent to the effectiveness of this Amendment set forth in Section 3.1 hereof, and in consideration of good and valuable
        consideration the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the Company and the Noteholders do hereby agree as follows:

       

      
        
          


        

      

      SECTION 1.       AMENDMENTS.

       

      1.1.        A new Section 9.9 of the Shelf Agreement shall be added to read as follows:

       

      Section 9.9.          Rating on the Notes.  The Company will use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain a Debt
        Rating for each series of the Notes from a NRSRO as soon as practicable and, in any event, on or before May 1, 2022.  After the Company has obtained such initial Debt Rating for each series of the Notes, the Company shall at all times thereafter
        maintain a Debt Rating for each series of the Notes from a NRSRO; provided, that, if the applicable NRSRO (i) ceases providing a Debt Rating for either or both
        series of the Notes without having provided the Company with at least 60 days advance notice (other than as a result of the Company failing to pay applicable fees and expenses or failing to reasonably cooperate with the NRSRO)(the earlier of the
        date notice is provided to the Company or, if no notice is provided, the date the NRSRO ceases providing the Debt Rating, a “Ratings Withdrawal Event”), or (ii) ceases to qualify as a NRSRO (the date of such
        event, a “Ratings Agency Event” and, together with a Ratings Withdrawal Event, a “Ratings Termination Event”), then the Company shall use its commercially reasonable
        efforts to obtain a new Debt Rating for either or both series of the Notes from a NRSRO as soon as practicable and, in any event, on or before the 60th day following the Ratings Termination Event or, if the Company diligently pursues a new Debt
        Rating but is unable to do so by the 60th day following the Ratings Termination Event, such period shall be extended for an additional 30 days.  Evidence of any Debt Rating shall (a) be delivered by the Company to the holders of the Notes (1) at
        least annually (but not more than 30 days prior to each anniversary of the date on which such Debt Rating was initially obtained) and (2) promptly upon any change in such Debt Rating, (b) set forth the Debt Rating for each series of the Notes, (c)
        refer to the Private Placement Number issued by CUSIP Global Services, in respect of each series of the Notes, (d) state that such Debt Rating addresses the likelihood of payment of both the principal and interest of such Notes (which requirement
        shall be deemed satisfied if such letter is silent as to the likelihood of payment of both principal and interest and does not otherwise include any indication to the contrary), (e) not include any prohibition against sharing such evidence with the
        SVO or any other regulatory authority having jurisdiction over the holders of the Notes, and (f) include such other information relating to such Debt Rating as may be required from time to time by the SVO or any other regulatory authority having
        jurisdiction over the holders of the Notes and as may be reasonably requested by the Required Holders.

       

      1.2.        Section 10.1 of the Shelf Agreement shall be and is hereby restated in its entirety to read as follows:

       

      Section 10.1.          Leverage Ratio.  The Company will not permit, as of the end of any fiscal quarter of the
        Company, the ratio of Consolidated Total Debt to Consolidated Total Capitalization to exceed 0.70 to 1.00; provided that, if the Company is not in compliance with the requirements of Section 9.9 at any time,
        the ratio of Consolidated Total Debt to Consolidated Total Capitalization shall be reduced to 0.65 to 1.00 until the date a new Debt Rating complying with the requirements of Section 9.9 is delivered to the
        holders of Notes.

       

      
        -2-

        
          


        

      

      1.3.        Clause (d) of Section 11 of the Shelf Agreement shall be and is hereby restated in its entirety to read as follows:

       

      (d)          the Company defaults in the performance of or compliance with any term contained herein (other than those referred to in paragraphs (a), (b) and (c) of this Section 11 and other than Section 9.9) and such default is not remedied within 30 days after the earlier of (1) a Responsible Officer obtaining actual knowledge of such default and (2) the
        Company receiving written notice of such default from any holder of a Note (any such written notice to be identified as a “notice of default” and to refer specifically to this paragraph (d) of Section 11);
        or

       

      1.4.        Section 22.4 of the Shelf Agreement shall be and is hereby restated in its entirety to read as follows:

       

      Section 22.4.          Accounting Terms.  All accounting terms used herein which are not expressly defined in this
        Agreement have the meanings respectively given to them in accordance with GAAP.  Except as otherwise specifically provided herein, (i) all computations made pursuant to this Agreement shall be made in accordance with GAAP, and (ii) all financial
        statements shall be prepared in accordance with GAAP.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, (a) if at any time any change in GAAP or in the application of GAAP would affect the computation of any financial ratio or requirement set forth in this
        Agreement, and either the Company or the Required Holders shall so request, the holders of Notes and the Company shall negotiate in good faith to amend such ratio or requirement to preserve the original intent thereof in light of such change in
        GAAP (subject to the approval of the Required Holders); provided that, until so amended, such provision shall be interpreted on the basis of GAAP as in effect and applied immediately before such change in GAAP shall have become effective, (b) each
        financial ratio or requirement set forth in this Agreement shall be computed (i) to exclude any change to lease accounting rules from those in effect pursuant to Accounting Standards Codification 840 (Leases) and other related lease accounting
        guidance as in effect on February 16, 2018 and (ii) using the methodology for the recognition of investment tax credits for solar generation projects used by the Company in the fiscal year ending September 30, 2019 and (c) the Company shall provide
        to the holders of Notes, concurrently with the delivery of the financial statements required under this Agreement and as reasonably requested by any holder of Notes hereunder, a reconciliation between the calculation of any such financial ratio or
        requirement made before and after giving effect to such changes in GAAP or the application thereof described in the foregoing clauses (a) and (b).  For purposes of determining compliance with this Agreement (including, without limitation, Section 9, Section 10 and the definition of “Debt”), any election by the Company to measure any financial liability using fair value (as permitted by Financial Accounting Standards Board Accounting Standards
        Codification Topic No. 825-10-25 – Fair Value Option, International Accounting Standard 39 – Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement or any similar accounting standard) shall be disregarded and such determination shall be made as if such
        election had not been made.

          other similar designation) by the NAIC.

        purposes.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any Noteholder shall request manually signed counterpart signatures to the Amendment, the Company and each Guarantor hereby agrees to use its reasonable endeavors to provide such manually signed
        signature pages as soon as reasonably practicable.
