 2.1 Limitations on Certain Acquisitions by

Section 2.1(c). 
 (c) (i) In connection with any Qualified Offer, Shareholder shall deliver the Qualified Offer
in writing to Dynegy. If Dynegy does not accept such offer in writing 

  

 4 







 
within 30 days after receipt, such offer shall be deemed withdrawn and Shareholder shall elect for Dynegy to either: (A) conduct an Auction in which
Shareholder may participate but shall have no special priority or other rights vis-a-vis other bidders, or (B) conduct an Auction in which Shareholder shall not participate but at the conclusion thereof Shareholder shall have the right to
acquire all of the outstanding voting securities of Dynegy at a purchase price per share equal to 105% of the purchase price per share set forth in the bid selected by Dynegy’s Board of Directors and in such event, Dynegy’s Board of
Directors shall approve promptly and in any case within 10 days of Shareholder’s request in writing made within 10 days of the conclusion of any such Auction (written notice of such conclusion to be given immediately by Dynegy to Shareholder)
entering into a definitive agreement with Shareholder for such a transaction containing customary terms and conditions, and Dynegy shall, within 2 days of the approval of its Board of Directors of such an agreement, execute and deliver the same to
Shareholder; such terms and conditions shall include a termination fee of 5 percent of the aggregate value of Dynegy as evidenced by the per share value payable by Shareholder under the agreement and a right of Dynegy to terminate the transaction
and pay such termination fee to Shareholder if Dynegy’s Board of Directors determines that it is necessary for Dynegy to so terminate the agreement in order for the Board to properly discharge its fiduciary duties. In the event of any such
termination by Dynegy, Shareholder may, in its discretion, proceed with a tender or exchange offer for all of the common stock of Dynegy which Shareholder does not own at such price as it shall choose irrespective of any other provisions of this
Agreement and shall be free to pursue any other rights and remedies which it may then have against Dynegy arising from such termination; Shareholder shall not be obligated to tender its shares to such other bidder nor to vote in favor of any other
transaction in the event of such termination.

 (A) The Auction shall be completed within 120 days after Dynegy receives the Qualified Offer and the corresponding sale shall close
within 60 days after completion of the Auction. 
 (B) If Dynegy does not receive an offer acceptable to its Board of
Directors in an Auction conducted pursuant to Section 2.1(c) within 120 days after Dynegy receives a Qualified Offer, Shareholder may either (I) proceed with its Qualified Offer (which may take the form of a tender offer or exchange
offer) and close such purchase within 60 days thereafter, or (II) reinitiate the process by submitting a new Qualified Offer. 
 (C) If Shareholder is not the successful bidder in an Auction conducted pursuant to Sections 2.1(c) or (B) or does not elect to purchase in the Auction, Shareholder agrees that it shall vote its Class B Shares in favor of
the successful bidder’s transaction and not exercise dissenter’s rights, shall tender its shares (in the event of a tender offer), and otherwise shall reasonably cooperate in consummating the transaction. 
  

 5 







 (D) Dynegy and Shareholder agree that the purchase price set forth in a Qualified Offer
is highly confidential and, as such, Dynegy and Shareholder (and each of their Affiliates) shall not, to the extent legally permissible, disclose such purchase price to any Person without the prior written consent of the other party. 
 (E) To the extent that a successful bidder proposes a purchase price that is not solely for cash, the stock and cash components of such
bid shall be substantially equivalent in value (on a per share basis) and the bid shall provide for sufficient cash (or be on such other terms) such that Shareholder may receive solely cash for its Class B Shares. 
 (F) In any Auction, Dynegy may be a bidder. 
 2.2 Transfer Restriction. Shareholder shall not Transfer or propose to Transfer any Class B Shares except in a transaction pursuant to Article II, Article III or a Governmental
Order. 
 (a) Widely Disbursed Public Sale. Shareholder may Transfer any Class B Shares in one or more Widely Disbursed
Public Sales. 
 (b) Other Transfers. Shareholder may Transfer part or all of its Class B Shares in accordance with
this Section 2.2(b) and Dynegy shall first be given the opportunity, in the following manner, to purchase (or cause a Person or group designated by Dynegy (a “Dynegy Designee”) to purchase) all, but
not less than all, of such offered Class B Shares: 
 (i) Proposed Transfer in the Absence of a Third Party Offer. If, from
time to time, at any time when Shareholder is not in receipt of a Third Party Offer, Shareholder desires to Transfer some or all of the Class B Shares other than pursuant to a Widely Disbursed Public Sale, Shareholder shall deliver a written notice
(the “Offer Notice”) to Dynegy of such intention and stating the number of Class B Shares that Shareholder proposes to Transfer and the cash purchase price per share for such
Transfer. Dynegy (or a Dynegy Designee) shall have the right for thirty (30) days from the receipt of the Offer Notice, exercisable by written notice in accordance with Section 7.4 hereof, to elect to purchase (or to designate the
Dynegy Designee to purchase) all, but not less than all, of the Class B Shares specified in the Offer Notice for cash at a purchase price per share as set forth therein. 
 (A) If Dynegy (or a Dynegy Designee) does not provide Shareholder written notice of its election to purchase within thirty (30) days
from receipt of the Offer Notice, Shareholder may, but is not obligated to, Transfer all, but not less than all, of the Class B Shares as specified in the Offer Notice at the cash purchase price per share set forth therein (or at a higher price),
provided that such Transfer must be completed within 180 days after Shareholder delivers the Offer Notice. 
  

 6 







 (B) If Dynegy exercises its right to purchase the Class B Shares specified in the Offer
Notice, the closing of the purchase of such Class B Shares shall take place within 180 days after Shareholder delivers the Offer Notice at a time and place reasonably specified by Dynegy (or a Dynegy Designee). At the closing, Dynegy (or a Dynegy
Designee) shall deliver to Shareholder cash or immediately available funds in an amount equal to the total purchase price of the Class B Shares set forth in the Offer Notice and Shareholder (and its Affiliates) shall deliver to Dynegy (or a Dynegy
Designee) certificates representing the Class B Shares, duly endorsed in blank or accompanied by stock powers duly executed and otherwise in form acceptable for transfer of the shares on the books of Dynegy, free and clear of liens, claims or other
encumbrances of any nature. If, for any reason other than a delay caused by Shareholder, Dynegy (or a Dynegy Designee) fails to complete the purchase of the Class B Shares in accordance with this clause within 180 days after Shareholder delivers the
Offer Notice, then Shareholder (and its Affiliates) may, but is not obligated to, Transfer the Class B Shares at such price as it shall deem appropriate, provided that Shareholder shall complete such Transfer within 180 days thereafter. Shareholder
and Dynegy expressly agree that, with respect to the first failure of Dynegy to complete the purchase of the Class B Shares as required by this clause (B), Shareholder shall have no remedies other than (1) the rights set forth in the
immediately preceding sentence and (2) a right to recover from Dynegy on demand Shareholder’s reasonable out of pocket expenses related to the proposed sale; provided, however that such limitation on Shareholder’s remedies shall only
be applicable if Dynegy exercised its right to purchase under this clause (B) in good faith and with the written advice of a nationally-recognized investment banking firm or financial institution that sufficient financing would be available for
such transaction. 
 (ii) Transfer Pursuant to a Third Party Offer. At any time Shareholder receives and desires to accept an
unsolicited Third Party Offer, Shareholder shall deliver a written notice (the “Third Party Offer Notice”) to Dynegy of such intention and stating the identity of the Third Party Offeror, the number of Class B
Shares that Shareholder proposes to Transfer and the purchase price per share for such Transfer. Following, receipt of the Third Party Offer Notice, Dynegy’s board of directors shall determine, in its sole discretion, whether the sale to the
Third Party Offeror is acceptable and shall deliver a written notice to Shareholder stating whether the sale to the Third Party Offeror is acceptable within thirty (30) days from the receipt of the Third Party Offer Notice. 
 (A) If Dynegy advises Shareholder that the sale to the Third Party Offeror is acceptable, then Shareholder may proceed with the Transfer
of Class B Shares in accordance with the Third Party Offer Notice (or at a higher price). 
  

 7 







 (B) If Dynegy advises Shareholder that the sale to the Third Party Offeror is not
acceptable, then Shareholder shall have the right to require Dynegy to purchase (or to designate a Dynegy Designee to purchase) all, but not less than all, of the Class B Shares specified in the Third Party Offer Notice for cash at a purchase price
equal to 105% of the purchase price per share as set forth in the Third Party Offer Notice. If, for any reason other than a delay caused by Shareholder, Dynegy (or a Dynegy Designee) fails to complete the purchase within 180 days from its receipt of
the Third Party Offer Notice, Shareholder may, but is not obligated to, Transfer the Class B Shares specified in the Third Party Offer Notice at such price as it shall deem appropriate, provided that Shareholder shall complete such Transfer within
180 days thereafter. Shareholder and Dynegy expressly agree that, with respect to the first such failure of Dynegy to complete the purchase of the Class B Shares as required by this clause (B), Shareholder shall have no remedies other than
(1) the rights set forth in the immediately preceding sentence and (2) a right to recover from Dynegy on demand Shareholder’s reasonable out of pocket expenses related to the proposed sale; provided, however that such limitation on
Shareholder’s remedies shall only be applicable if Dynegy exercised its right to purchase under this clause (B) in good faith and with the written advice of a nationally-recognized investment banking firm or financial institution that
sufficient financing would be available for such transaction. 
 2.3 Time Periods. Whenever a provision of Article
II or III provides that an action is to be taken within a specified period of time, such period shall be increased to the extent reasonable to accommodate obtaining any required approvals from any Governmental Authorities. 
 2.4 Additional Shareholder Covenants. Shareholder shall not seek, directly or indirectly, to place representatives on the Board of
Directors of Dynegy or seek the removal of any member of the Board of Directors of Dynegy except pursuant to the terms of the Class B Shares set forth in the Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation of Dynegy. 
 2.5 Shares Subject to the Agreement. Except as otherwise provided for herein, all Class B Shares now or hereafter owned by
Shareholder or its Affiliates shall be subject to the terms of this Agreement. 
 2.6 References to Class B Shares. With
respect to any Transfer, a reference to Class B Shares herein shall be deemed to include the Class A Shares or other securities issuable upon conversion of the Class B Shares in accordance with Dynegy’s Articles of Incorporation upon the
Transfer of such Class A Shares or other securities to a third party. 
  

 8 







 2.7 Legend and Stop Transfer Order. To assist in effectuating the provisions of this
Agreement, Shareholder hereby consents: 
 (a) to the placement of the following legend on all certificates certifying
ownership of the Class B Shares until such Class B Shares have been sold, transferred or disposed of pursuant to the requirements of Article II hereof: 
 “THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE HAVE BEEN ACQUIRED FOR INVESTMENT AND HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, OR ANY STATE SECURITIES OR BLUE SKY LAWS. THESE
SECURITIES MAY NOT BE SOLD OR TRANSFERRED IN THE ABSENCE OF SUCH REGISTRATION OR AN EXEMPTION THEREFROM UNDER SAID ACT OR APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES OR BLUE SKY LAWS. Additionally, the securities represented by this certificate are subject to the
provisions of a Second Amended and Restated Shareholder Agreement by and between Dynegy Inc. and Chevron U.S.A. Inc. and may not be sold, transferred, pledged, hypothecated or otherwise disposed of except in accordance therewith. A copy of said
agreement is on file at the office of the Secretary of Dynegy Inc.”; and 
 (b) to the entry of a stop transfer order
with the transfer agent or agents of Dynegy securities against the transfer of Class B Shares except in compliance with the requirements of this Agreement, or, if Dynegy is its own transfer agent with respect to any Class B Shares, to the refusal by
Dynegy to transfer any such securities except in compliance with the requirements of this Agreement. 
 ARTICLE III 
 DYNEGY’S BUYOUT RIGHTS 
 3.1
Buyout Rights. Subject to the limitations hereinafter set forth, upon the occurrence of a Buyout Event, Shareholder’s blocking rights under this Agreement with respect to a Covered Transaction and pursuant to Article III,
Section 7 of Dynegy’s Bylaws shall, subject to reinstatement under clause (a)(iii) hereunder, terminate and Shareholder, within 180 days after the occurrence of a Buyout Event (or such longer period as may be required to avoid disgorgement
of short swing profits under Section 16 of the Exchange Act with respect to Class B Shares owned at the time of the Buyout Event), at its option shall either: 
 (a) Sell (and cause its Affiliates to sell) all of the Class B Shares (1) in a Widely Disbursed Public Sale or (2) to a third
party in a private sale, provided that any such private sale shall be subject to the following provisions: 
 (i) As promptly
as practicable, Shareholder shall deliver written notice to Dynegy of any proposed buyer under clause (2) of this Section 3.1(a) and the purchase price per share and other material terms of such proposed sale. 
 (ii) If, within 30 days after receipt of Shareholder’s notice, Dynegy’s board of directors delivers written notice to
Shareholder that a proposed buyer or 

  

 9 







 
terms are not acceptable, in its sole discretion, then Shareholder shall have the right to require Dynegy to purchase (or find an acceptable buyer to
purchase) all of the Class B Shares at a purchase price equal to 105% of the purchase price agreed to between Shareholder and the third party under clause (2) of this Section 3.1(a). 
 (iii) If, for any reason other than a delay caused solely by Shareholder, Dynegy (or any acceptable buyer appointed by Dynegy) fails to
purchase the Class B Shares within 180 days after the date of the Buyout Event, then Shareholder (and its Affiliates) shall be free to Transfer the Class B Shares at such price as it shall deem appropriate, provided that Shareholder shall complete
such Transfer within 180 days thereafter, provided, that if Shareholder chooses not to sell the Class B Shares after such failure, then notwithstanding any of the provisions of this Section 3.1, the Blocking Event triggering the Buyout
Event shall not be deemed to be a Blocking Event and Shareholder’s blocking rights under Article III, Section 7 of Dynegy’s Bylaws shall thereupon be reinstated. Shareholder and Dynegy expressly agree that, with respect to the
first failure of Dynegy to complete the purchase of the Class B Shares as required by this clause (iii), Shareholder shall have no remedies other than (1) the rights set forth in the immediately preceding sentence and (2) a right to
recover from Dynegy on demand Shareholder’s reasonable out of pocket expenses related to the proposed sale; provided, however that such limitation on Shareholder’s remedies shall only be applicable if Dynegy exercised its right to purchase
under this clause (iii) in good faith and with the written advice of a nationally-recognized investment banking firm or financial institution that sufficient financing would be available for such transaction. 
 (b) Elect to retain the Class B Shares, by delivering a written election to Dynegy, provided that such Class B Shares and the directors
elected by such Class B Shares shall no longer be entitled to any blocking rights under Article III, Section 7 of Dynegy’s Bylaws. 
 ARTICLE IV 
 CERTAIN AGREEMENTS RELATING TO DYNEGY 
 4.1 Sales of Class B Common Stock. Dynegy covenants and agrees that it shall not issue or agree to issue to any Person other than
Shareholder or its Affiliates any Class B Shares (or any security convertible or exchangeable into such Class B Shares or any option, warrant or other right to acquire such Class B Shares) without the prior written consent of Shareholder.

 4.2 Restraints on Shareholders Ownership. Dynegy covenants and agrees that it shall not adopt a shareholder rights
plan, “poison pill” or similar device that prevents Shareholder from exercising its rights under Section 2.1(c) or Article III. 
 4.3 Nuclear Facility. Dynegy covenants and agrees that, it shall not acquire, own or operate (and shall prevent any subsidiary or joint venture to which it is a party from acquiring, 

 

 10 







 
owning or operating) a facility licensed by the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (a “Nuclear Facility”). This restriction
shall not prohibit Dynegy and its subsidiaries from owning up to 10% of the equity securities of any publicly-traded company that owns or operates a Nuclear Facility. 
 4.4 Limitation on Certain Actions; Cure. Dynegy covenants and agrees that, from and after the date hereof, it shall not take any action that would cause Shareholder and its Affiliates to own
beneficially and collectively (including any securities of other Persons with whom Shareholder or its Affiliates are affiliated) securities representing more than the Ownership Threshold. If Dynegy takes any action which results in Shareholder and
its Affiliates owning beneficially and collectively securities representing more than the Ownership Threshold, it shall promptly notify Shareholder. Within 60 days from the date Dynegy and Shareholder become aware that the Ownership Threshold has
been exceeded as a result of any action by Dynegy, Dynegy and Shareholder shall take such action as they mutually agree is necessary and appropriate to reduce Shareholder’s beneficial ownership below the Ownership Threshold, including, without
limitation, increasing the Ownership Threshold; provided, however, that nothing in this sentence shall obligate Dynegy to agree to increase the Ownership Threshold. 
 ARTICLE V 
 PREEMPTIVE RIGHTS 
 5.1 Employee Benefit Plans; Certain Recapitalization Securities. 
 (a) If Dynegy issues any Common Stock pursuant to stock option, restricted stock or other employee benefit plans, within 30 days following
the end of each fiscal quarter Dynegy shall notify Shareholder in writing of all such issuances. Within 30 days after the receipt of such notification, Shareholder may notify Dynegy of its intent to purchase its “proportionate share” of
such Common Stock, in which event Dynegy shall issue such equity securities to Shareholder in exchange for the purchase price. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Dynegy is subject to a stock split, reverse split, merger, share exchange or other
transaction in which the rights of Shareholder may be adversely impacted if it is not able to purchase its proportionate share in a timely fashion, the notice required by this Section shall be given in sufficient time for Shareholder to elect to
purchase Common Stock and participate in such transaction. 
 (b) Shareholder shall not have preemptive rights in respect of
(i) the equity securities Dynegy issued on May 16, 2006, in connection with the exchange offer made to holders of Dynegy’s 4.75% Convertible Subordinated Debentures, due 2023 on substantially the same terms as those contemplated in
Dynegy’s registration statement on Form S-4 filed on March 15, 2006, as amended, (ii) any equity securities Dynegy issues to finance the transactions contemplated by the Redemption Agreement (to the extent the proceeds thereof are
used for such purpose), and (iii) up to an additional $250 million in equity securities issued by Dynegy pursuant to one or more underwritten public offerings pursuant to effective registration statements thereafter. 
 5.2 Other Issuances. If Dynegy issues any equity securities other than as described in Section 5.1 hereof, promptly, but
in all events within 30 days following each such issuance, 

  

 11 







 
Dynegy shall notify Shareholder in writing of such issuance. Within 30 days after the receipt of such notification, Shareholder may notify Dynegy in writing
of its intent to purchase its proportionate share of such Common Stock, in which event Dynegy shall issue such Common Stock to Shareholder in exchange for the purchase price. 
 5.3 Intended Issuances. Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 5.2, to enable Dynegy to efficiently structure
financings and other securities issuances, to the extent that Dynegy notifies Shareholder in writing of the material terms of an intended issuance of any Common Stock, as promptly as practicable thereafter Shareholder shall notify Dynegy in writing
of its election to purchase its proportionate share of such Common Stock, in which case Dynegy shall issue such Common Stock to Shareholder in exchange for the purchase price at the time of the issuance to others. If the material terms of the
intended issuance change prior to issuance, Dynegy shall promptly give Shareholder written notice thereof, and as promptly as practicable thereafter Shareholder shall reconfirm (or reverse) its prior election in writing. 
 5.4 Purchase Price. The purchase price for Common Stock issued pursuant to Section 5.1 or 5.2 shall equal:
(a) if the securities are issued in an arms’ length transaction based upon the market price of Dynegy’s securities, at the price of such issuance, (b) if clause (a) does not apply, at the mean closing price on the New York
Stock Exchange (or other primary market for the relevant securities) over the twenty (20) trading days most immediately preceding the issuance, (c) if neither clause (a) or (b) applies, at the fair market value thereof as
determined for purposes of complying with the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976, as amended, if a notification is required pursuant to such Act, and (d) otherwise at the fair market value thereof, in cash, as determined in
good faith by Board of Directors of Dynegy. 
 5.5 Proportionate Share. For purposes of the issuance of securities to
Shareholder pursuant to this Article V, Shareholder’s “proportionate share” shall be that number of shares of Common Stock which preserves Shareholder’s proportionate interest in the Common Stock of Dynegy at the same
level as prior to the issuance that triggered Shareholder’s rights. 
 5.6 Nature of Securities. (a) To the
extent that Shareholder is entitled to purchase Class A Common Shares pursuant to this Article V, it instead shall be issued Class B Common Shares on a one-for-one basis. 
 (b) To the extent that Shareholder is entitled to purchase any other voting securities pursuant to this Article V, Dynegy and
Shareholder shall negotiate in good faith and agree upon the nature of the securities and, if applicable, the restrictions on or privileges of, such securities so that the purposes of this Agreement are effected. 
 (c) Shareholder shall have no preemptive rights with respect to securities that do not participate in the earnings of Dynegy or, absent a
payment or other default, in the election of directors of Dynegy. 
 5.7 Presumption. To facilitate future reviews of
the books and records of Dynegy, there shall be an irrefutable presumption that this Article V has been fully complied with by Dynegy: (a) absent a filing by Shareholder with the SEC (for instance, on a Schedule 13D) within 180 days
following the end of any fiscal year of a document stating its belief that it was 

  

 12 







 
not issued the securities that it was entitled to during such fiscal year, with respect to all issuances during such year, and (b) absent the
institution of litigation against Dynegy by Shareholder prior thereto, 180 days following the last date on which there has been any Class B Shares outstanding, with respect to all issuances. 
 ARTICLE VI 
 EFFECTIVENESS; TERMINATION 
 6.1 Effectiveness and Term. The provisions of this Agreement shall be effective and terminate as follows: 
 (a) the provisions of Article VII shall be effective as of February 1, 2000 and shall terminate on the date on which
Shareholder and its Affiliates own less than 10% of the total combined voting power of all voting securities of Dynegy; and 
 (b) the remaining provisions (other than Article VII) of this Agreement shall terminate on the date Shareholder and its Affiliates cease to own at least 15% of the total combined voting power of all voting securities of Dynegy.

 6.2 Issuance of New Certificates. Upon a termination of the provisions of this Agreement contemplated by
Section 6.1(b), all Class B Shares subject to this Agreement shall be relieved from the terms and conditions contained herein, and the stock certificates of Dynegy representing such Class B Shares may be surrendered to Dynegy for
cancellation and issuance of a new certificate without the legend required pursuant to Section 2.7 (other than the first and second sentences of such legend). Such new certificates shall be issued and delivered to Shareholder as soon as
practicable and the stop transfer order provided for in Section 2.7 shall be rescinded immediately. 
 ARTICLE VII

 GENERAL PROVISIONS 
 7.1 Intent and Interpretation. Each of parties hereto stipulates and acknowledges that Dynegy has made, prior to the date of the Original Agreement, a careful evaluation of Shareholder, its investment objectives with
regard to the Class B Shares and its lack of intent to obtain control of Dynegy by its acquisition thereof, and the compatibility of such objectives with the objectives of Dynegy; that such factors were critical to Dynegy in the decision to
consummate the Acquisition and thereby issue a large block of voting securities to Shareholder; that, absent the restrictions in this Agreement, ownership of the Class B Shares would present an unusual opportunity for Shareholder to gain effective
control of Dynegy; that Dynegy might have reached a different decision with regard to the Acquisition and the resulting issuance of the Class B Shares to a group of related persons had such persons been other than Shareholder; therefore, that the
restrictions set forth in this Agreement are a material part of the consideration received by Dynegy for the issuance of the Class B Shares in the Acquisition, and that the primary intent of such restrictions is to insure that such block of
securities does not come to rest in the hands or under the control of any single holder or group of holders other than Shareholder 
  

 13 







 
and that the size of such block of securities is not, except as otherwise herein provided, increased over a prescribed amount, without the consent of Dynegy.
Shareholder acknowledges and agrees that such purpose and intent are reasonable and that the restrictions set forth in this Agreement are reasonable in view of such purpose and intent. Further, Shareholder and Dynegy agree that, should any
disagreement arise in the interpretation of any such restrictions as applied to any set of facts, such disagreement shall be resolved by interpreting and applying each restriction in the manner that will most nearly effectuate the purpose and intent
of such restrictions as herein stated. 
 7.2 Specific Enforcement. Each of the parties hereto acknowledges and agrees
that the other parties hereto would be irreparably damaged and that money damages are not an adequate remedy if any of the provisions of this Agreement were not performed in accordance with their specific terms or were otherwise breached because,
among other reasons, each such provision relates to potential control of Dynegy. It is accordingly agreed that each party hereto shall be entitled to an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to specifically enforce this
Agreement and the terms and provisions hereof in any court of the United States or any state thereof, in addition to any other remedy to which such party may be entitled, at law or in equity. It is further agreed that none of the parties hereto
shall raise the defense that there is an adequate remedy at law. 
 7.3 Severability. If any term of this Agreement or
the application thereof to any party or circumstance shall be held invalid or unenforceable to any extent, the remainder of this Agreement and the application of such term to the other parties or circumstances shall not be affected thereby and shall
be enforced to the greatest extent permitted by applicable law, provided that in such event the parties shall negotiate in good faith in an attempt to agree to another provision (in lieu of the term or application held to be invalid or
unenforceable) that will be valid and enforceable and will carry out the parties’ intentions hereunder. 
 7.4 Notices,
Etc. All notices, requests, demands or other communications required by or otherwise with respect to this Agreement shall be in writing and shall be deemed given (i) when made, if made by hand delivery, and upon confirmation of
receipt, if made by facsimile, (ii) one business day after being deposited with a next-day courier, postage prepaid, or (iii) three business days after being sent certified or registered mail, return receipt requested, postage prepaid, in

 7.7 Remedies Cumulative. All rights, powers and remedies provided under this
Agreement or otherwise available in respect hereof at law or in equity shall be cumulative and not alternative, and the exercise or beginning of the exercise of any thereof by any party shall not preclude the simultaneous or later exercise of any
other such right, power or remedy by such party. 
 7.8 No Waiver. The failure of any party hereto to exercise any
right, power or remedy provided under this Agreement or otherwise available in respect hereof at law or in equity, or to insist upon compliance by any other party hereto with its obligations hereunder, and any custom or practice of the parties at
variance with the terms hereof, shall not constitute a waiver by such party of his or her right to exercise any such or other right, power or remedy or to demand such compliance.

or entity who or which is not a party hereto.

attempt to defeat or deny such personal jurisdiction by motion or other request for leave from any such court.

 7.14 Expenses. Except as expressly provided herein, each of the parties hereto shall each bear its own expenses incurred in
connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby. 
 7.15 Successors and Assigns. Shareholder
shall not assign this Agreement without the written consent of Dynegy, except to an Affiliate of Shareholder as contemplated herein; Dynegy may assign this Agreement only to any successor to substantially all of its business as a result of a merger,
consolidation or sale by Dynegy. Subject to the foregoing, this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by the successors and assigns of the parties hereto. 
  

 16 







 7.16 Dynegy’s Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws. 
 (a) The parties acknowledge that the provisions of Article 7, Paragraph 2, of Dynegy’s Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation
are no longer applicable. The parties agree that Dynegy may amend its Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation to remove such provisions therefrom. 
 (b) The parties acknowledge and agree that Dynegy shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause the provisions of Article III, Section 7.(B) of Dynegy’s Amended and Restated Bylaws (as presently in
effect) to be modified so as to read in its entirety as specified in Schedule I hereto as promptly as practicable following the date hereof. The parties acknowledge that such modification shall not become effective until Dynegy has amended the
Amended and Restated Bylaws in accordance with the amendment procedures in effect at the time of such amendment.
