ninety-nine percent (99%) of the Membership Interest in the Company to OILP and OILP agreed to buy such interests from WFS; and

WHEREAS, the Parties desire to modify the Effective Time; and

WHEREAS, the consideration paid by OILP to WFS for
the Membership Interest is calculated with reference to the actual costs, without mark-up, incurred up to the Closing Date in connection with the development and construction of the Project, and the Parties desire a method for adjusting such
consideration to reflect certain costs that are incurred on or before the Closing Date but not recorded by WFS and which WFS ultimately is required to pay; and

WHEREAS, OILP wishes to assign and to delegate all of its rights and obligations under the Purchase and Sale Agreement to OPH; and

1. Sale and Closing. Section 1.1 of the Purchase and Sale Agreement is hereby amended by deleting the last sentence of such section in its
entirety and replacing it with the following:

2006 (the Effective Time).

2. Consideration. Section 1.2 of the Purchase and Sale Agreement is hereby
amended by adding the following subsections (c) and (d):

development and construction of the Project that (i) were incurred at or prior to the Closing Date but not recorded on the revised version of Exhibit 1.2 delivered by Seller as of the Closing Date, and (ii) were actually paid
by Seller. Except to the extent disputed in good faith, all such costs shall be deemed to be an adjustment to the Cash Consideration and shall be paid within five (5) business days of presentment by wire or by interbank transfer of immediately
available funds according to the written instructions accompanying the itemized list.

the Project received by Seller that were not (i) paid by or on behalf of Seller, (ii) recorded on the final version of Exhibit 1.2, or (iii) due prior to the Closing Date.
