    In providing the services under this Section 1 and as otherwise provided under this Administration Agreement, the Administrator will not knowingly take any actions on behalf of the Issuer which (i)
      the Issuer is prohibited from taking under the Related Agreements, or (ii) would cause the Issuer to be in violation of any federal, state or local law or the Issuer LLC Agreement.

     

    In performing its duties hereunder, the Administrator shall use the same degree of care and diligence that the Administrator exercises with respect to performing such duties on its own account and,
      if applicable, for others.

     

    
      3

      
        


    

    	2.	
            Compensation.

          


     

    	

          	(a)	
            As compensation for the performance of the Administrator’s obligations under this Administration Agreement (including the compensation of Persons serving as Managers (other than the independent Manager(s)) and officers of the Issuer, but,
              for the avoidance of doubt, excluding the performance by Cleco Power of its obligations in its capacity as Servicer), the Administrator shall be entitled to $100,000.00 annually (the “Administration Fee”), with no escalation, payable by the
              Issuer in arrears proportionately on each Payment Date, in semi-annual increments of $50,000.00, which shall be prorated based on the fraction of a calendar year during which the Administrator provides any of the services set forth in this
              Administration Agreement. In addition, the Administrator shall be entitled to be reimbursed by the Issuer for all costs and expenses of services performed by unaffiliated third parties and actually incurred by the Administrator in connection
              with the performance of its obligations under this Administration Agreement in accordance with Section 3 (but, for the avoidance of doubt, excluding any such costs and expenses incurred by Cleco Power in its capacity as Servicer), to the
              extent that such costs and expenses are supported by invoices or other customary documentation and are reasonably allocated to the Issuer (“Reimbursable Expenses”).

          


     

    	

          	(b)	
            In the event that one or more series of Additional Storm Recovery Bonds, (i.e., other than the Storm Recovery Bonds) is issued by the Issuer, the administration fees and other costs and expenses
              described above payable by the Issuer may be assessed to each series of storm recovery bonds (including the Storm Recovery Bonds) on a pro rata basis, based upon the respective outstanding principal amounts of each series of storm recovery
              bonds, and this Administration Agreement may be amended to provide that Cleco Power will provide administrative services to the Issuer with respect to any such series of Additional Storm Recovery Bonds.

          


     

    	3.	
            Third Party Services.  Any services required for or contemplated by the performance of the above-referenced services by the Administrator to be provided by unaffiliated third parties (including independent accountants’ fees and legal counsel fees) may,
                if provided for or otherwise contemplated by the Financing Order and if the Issuer deems it necessary or desirable, be arranged by the Issuer or by the Administrator at the direction (which may be general or specific) of the Issuer.  Costs
                and expenses associated with the contracting for such third-party services may be paid directly by the Issuer or paid by the Administrator and reimbursed by the Issuer in accordance with Section 2, or otherwise as the Administrator and the
                Issuer may mutually arrange.

          


     

    	4.	
            Additional Information to be Furnished to the Issuer.  The Administrator shall furnish to the Issuer from time to time such additional information regarding the Trust Estate as the Issuer shall reasonably request.

          


     

    	5.	
            Independence of the Administrator.  For all purposes of this Administration Agreement, the Administrator shall be an independent contractor and shall not be subject to the supervision of the Issuer with respect to the manner in which it accomplishes the
                performance of its obligations hereunder.  Unless expressly authorized by the Issuer, the Administrator shall have no authority, and shall not hold itself out as having the authority, to act for or represent the Issuer in any way and shall
                not otherwise be deemed an agent of the Issuer.

          


     

    
      4

      
        


    

    The work to be performed under this Administration Agreement is part of the Issuer’s business and is an integral part of and is essential to the business and operations of the Issuer.  For purposes
      of the Louisiana Worker’s Compensation Act, the Issuer is deemed to be the statutory employer of the Administrator’s employees who perform the services under this Administration Agreement.  Although the Issuer is to be granted the protections that
      are afforded a statutory employer under Louisiana law, this provision is included for the sole purpose of establishing a statutory employer relationship between the Issuer and the Administrator’s personnel within the meaning of La. R.S. 23:1061(A)
      and is not intended to create an employer / employee relationship as between the Issuer and the Administrator’s personnel for any other purpose.  The Administrator shall be and remain primarily responsible for the payment of workers’ compensation
      benefits to the Administrator’s personnel and shall not be entitled to seek contribution for any such payments from the Issuer, and the Administrator further shall indemnify and hold harmless the Issuer and at the Issuer’s option defend the Issuer
      for any payment to the Administrator’s personnel of workers’ compensation benefits or from any claim for such benefits or any other employee claim.

     

    	6.	
            No Joint Venture. 



                Nothing contained in this Administration Agreement (a) shall constitute the Administrator and the Issuer as partners or co-members of any partnership, joint venture, association, syndicate, unincorporated business or other separate entity,
                (b) shall be construed to impose any liability as such on either of them or (c) shall be deemed to confer on either of them any express, implied or apparent authority to incur any obligation or liability on behalf of the other.

          


     

    	7.	
            Other Activities of Administrator.  Nothing herein shall prevent the Administrator or any of its members, managers, officers, employees, subsidiaries or affiliates from engaging in other businesses or, in its sole discretion, from acting in a similar
                capacity as an Administrator for any other person or entity even though such person or entity may engage in business activities similar to those of the Issuer.

          


     

    	8.

              automatically terminate.

          


     

    	

          	(b)

          	(ii)

              bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar law now or hereafter in effect, or such court shall appoint a receiver, liquidator, assignee, custodian, trustee, sequestrator or similar official for the Administrator or any substantial part of its
              property or order the winding-up or liquidation of its affairs; or

    The Administrator agrees that if any of the events specified in clauses (ii) or (iii) of this Section 8(d) shall occur, it shall give written notice thereof to the Issuer and the Trustee as soon as
      practicable but in any event within seven (7) days after the happening of such event.

    	14.	
            Successors and Assigns. This Administration Agreement may not be assigned by the Administrator unless such assignment is previously consented to in writing by the Issuer and the Trustee and subject to the satisfaction of the Rating Agency Condition in
                connection therewith. Any assignment with such consent and satisfaction, if accepted by the assignee, shall bind the assignee hereunder in the same manner as the Administrator is bound hereunder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, this
                Administration Agreement may be assigned by the Administrator without the consent of the Issuer or the Trustee and without satisfaction of the Rating Agency Condition to a corporation or other organization that is a successor (by merger,
                reorganization, consolidation or purchase of assets) to the Administrator; provided that such successor organization executes and delivers to the Issuer an agreement in which such corporation or other organization agrees to be bound
                hereunder by the terms of said assignment in the same manner as the Administrator is bound hereunder. Subject to the foregoing, this Administration Agreement shall bind any successors or assigns of the parties hereto. Upon satisfaction of
                all of the conditions of this Section 14, the preceding Administrator shall automatically and without further notice be released from all of its obligations hereunder.

          


     

    	15.	
            Governing Law. 
                This Administration Agreement shall be construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Louisiana, without reference to its conflict of law provisions, and the obligations, rights and remedies of the parties hereunder shall be
                determined in accordance with such laws.

          


     

    	16.	
            Headings.  The
                Section headings hereof have been inserted for convenience of reference only and shall not be construed to affect the meaning, construction or effect of this Administration Agreement.

          


     

    	17.	
            Counterparts. 
                This Administration Agreement may be executed in counterparts, each of which when so executed shall be an original, but all of which together shall constitute but one and the same Administration Agreement.

          


     

    	18.	
            Severability.
                Any provision of this Administration Agreement that is prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions hereof and any
                such prohibition or unenforceability in any jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction.

    	19.	
            Nonpetition Covenant.  Notwithstanding any prior termination of this Administration Agreement, the Administrator covenants that it shall not, prior to the date which is one year and one day after payment in full of the Storm Recovery Bonds, acquiesce,
                petition or otherwise invoke or cause the Issuer to invoke the process of any court or government authority for the purpose of commencing or sustaining an involuntary case against the Issuer under any U.S. federal or state bankruptcy,
                insolvency or similar law or appointing a receiver, liquidator, assignee, trustee, custodian, sequestrator or other similar official of the Issuer or any substantial part of its property, or ordering the winding up or liquidation of the
                affairs of the Issuer.

          


     

    	20.	
            Pledge to Trustee.  The Administrator hereby acknowledges and consents to any pledge and grant of a security interest by the Issuer to the Trustee for the benefit of the Secured Parties pursuant to the Indenture of any or all of the Issuer’s rights
                hereunder.  For the avoidance of doubt, the Trustee is a third-party beneficiary of this Administration Agreement and is entitled to the rights and benefits hereunder and may enforce the provisions hereof as if it were a party hereto.
