 Article 2 
 Purchase and Sale; Closing 
 Section 2.1 Purchase and Sale of Membership Interests;
Assumption of Assigned Contracts. 
 (a) At the Closing, upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement,
Seller shall cause the Owner Affiliates to sell, transfer, convey, assign and deliver to Buyer or its designated Affiliate, and Buyer or its designated Affiliate shall acquire and purchase from Seller and the Owner Affiliates, all of the issued and
outstanding Membership Interests of the Company; provided, however, that, if applicable, the designation by Buyer of an Affiliate to acquire such Membership Interest shall not invalidate or be inconsistent with the terms of the Lyondell Consents.

 (b) At the Closing, Buyer agrees to cause the Company or an Affiliate of the Company designated by Buyer to assume or accept the novation
of the contracts set forth on Schedule 2.1(b) (the “Assigned Contracts”) from the Retained Affiliate that is a party to the Assigned Contract, and Seller agrees to cause each Retained Affiliate to transfer all
of its rights and obligations under the Assigned Contracts by assignment or novation relating to the period from and after Closing Date to the Company or an Affiliate of the Company designated by the Buyer. 
  

 9 







 (c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein or otherwise, the following items shall be
retained by, or transferred to Seller or its designated Retained Affiliate at or prior to Closing: 
 (i) any insurance
policies, insurance proceeds, insurance refunds and prepaid insurance premiums relating to the period prior to the Closing; 
 (ii) any of Seller’s employee personnel files; 
 (iii) the hardware and enterprise software set forth on
Schedule 2.1(c)(iii) (the “Retained Software License Agreements and Hardware”); and 
 (iv) all
rights and obligations under the Assigned Contracts relating to periods prior to the Closing Date. 
 Section 2.2 Purchase Price.
 
 (a) The purchase price for the Membership Interests of the Company shall be Four Hundred Sixty-Seven Million Five Hundred Thousand
Dollars ($467,500,000) (subject to adjustments, if any, expressly provided hereunder, the “Purchase Price”). At the Closing, Buyer will pay or cause to be paid to Seller, by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an
account or accounts previously designated in writing by Seller, an amount in United States dollars equal to the Purchase Price. 
 (b) As
promptly as practicable, but in no event later than ninety (90) days after the Closing, Seller shall cause to be prepared and delivered to Buyer (i) a written calculation of Actual Working Capital of the Company, which shall be prepared in
accordance with GAAP consistently applied (the “Working Capital Statement”), and (ii) a calculation of the adjustment to the Purchase Price (the “Working Capital Adjustment”), as determined in
accordance with this Section 2.2(b). Buyer shall provide Seller and its agents and representatives any information reasonably requested and, upon reasonable notice, full access at all reasonable times to the properties, books, records, and
other materials of the Company as Seller may reasonably request in connection with its preparation of the Working Capital Statement and Working Capital Adjustment. The Purchase Price shall be adjusted (x) downward by the amount by which the
Actual Working Capital of the Company is less than $0.00, in which case Seller shall pay the shortfall amount to Buyer, or (y) upward by the amount by which the Actual Working Capital of the Company is greater than $0.00, in which case Buyer
shall pay the excess amount to Seller. The Buyer shall have ten (10) days following receipt of the Working Capital Statement and the Working Capital Adjustment to notify Seller in writing (the “Notice of Disagreement”)
of any dispute relating to the preparation of the Working Capital Statement or the calculation of Actual Working Capital and the Working Capital Adjustment. The Notice of Disagreement shall set forth with specificity the nature and extent of the
Buyer’s dispute. Thereafter, Buyer and Seller shall attempt in good faith to resolve the disputed items and finally determine the Actual Working Capital and the Working Capital Adjustment. If Buyer and Seller are unable to resolve the
disagreement within twenty (20) days after delivery of the Notice of 

  

 10 







 
Disagreement, then such amounts remaining in dispute shall be submitted to an independent nationally-recognized accounting firm, mutually agreeable to Buyer
and Seller (the “Neutral Auditors”). The Neutral Auditors shall act as an arbitrator to determine, based solely on the provisions of this Section 2.2(b) and the presentations by the Buyer and the Seller, and not by
independent review, only those issues still in dispute. The Neutral Auditors’ determination shall be made within twenty (20) days of the dispute being submitted for their determination, shall be set forth in a written statement delivered
to the Buyer and Seller and shall be final, non-appealable and binding on the parties hereto, absent manifest error or fraud. A judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction may be entered upon the Neutral Auditors’ determination. The fees,
costs and expenses of the Neutral Auditors shall be borne equally by the Buyer, on the one hand, and by the Seller, on the other hand. The Working Capital Adjustment shall become final as of the date of the notice of determination delivered by the
Neutral Auditors, absent manifest error or fraud. Any payment to be made pursuant to this Section 2.2(b) shall be made within three (3) Business Days following the date the Working Capital Adjustment becomes final in immediately available
funds by wire transfer to such bank account as Seller or Buyer will specify, as applicable. 
 (c) The Parties have been unable to agree as
to the value attributable to the 2008 Vintage NOx Allowances that will be allocated to the Generating Facility, and as a result have agreed to implement the following adjustment to the Purchase Price. No later than fifteen days following the
Company’s submission to the TCEQ of its report under the Mass Emission Cap and Trade Program detailing the aggregate NOx emissions of the Generating Facility for the 2007 Control Period, Buyer shall cause the Company to transfer to Seller an
amount of 2008 Vintage NOx Allowances equal to the positive difference, if any, of (i) the aggregate 2008 Vintage NOx Allowances allocated to the Generating Facility (currently expected to be 631.7 tons of NOx allowances), less
(ii) an amount equal to 102% of the aggregate tons of NOx emitted by the Generating Facility during the 2007 Control Period, as reported to the TCEQ by the Company. For purposes of this Section 2.2(c),
(i) “TCEQ” means the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality, (ii) “2008 Vintage NOx Allowances” means NOx allowances allocated to the Generating Facility by the TCEQ in respect of the 2008
Control Period, (iii) “2007 Control Period” means the 2007 calendar year and (iv) “2008 Control Period” means the period established by the TCEQ for 2008 in respect of which the Generating
Facility must monitor its emissions of NOx under the Mass Emission Cap and Trade Program administered by the TCEQ with respect to the Houston/Galveston nonattainment area (currently expected to be the 2008 calendar year). Seller and Buyer agree to
treat the transfer contemplated by this Section 2.2(c) as an adjustment to the Purchase Price. 
 Section 2.3 Allocation of
Purchase Price. The Purchase Price shall be allocated among the Company Assets as of the Closing in accordance with a schedule to be prepared by Buyer, using the allocation method provided by Section 1060 of the Code and the regulations
thereunder and the Parties shall cooperate to comply with all substantive and procedural requirements of Section 1060 of the Code and the regulations thereunder. In that regard, Buyer shall provide Seller with Buyer’s proposed allocation
of the Purchase Price among the Company Assets as soon as practicable after, and in no event later than sixty (60) days after, the Closing. Seller shall then consult with Buyer regarding such allocation and propose any adjustments within a
reasonable time thereafter. If Buyer and Seller are unable to agree on such allocation, Buyer and Seller may allocate the Purchase Price as each Party determines using the allocation method provided by Section 1060 of the Code and the
regulations thereunder. 
  

 11 







 Section 2.4 Time and Place of Closing. Upon the terms and subject to the satisfaction of the
conditions contained in Article 6, the closing of the purchase and sale of the Membership Interests (the “Closing”) shall take place on such date as the Parties may agree, which date shall be as soon as practicable, but no
later than ten (10) Business Days following the date on which all of the conditions set forth in Article 6 have been satisfied or waived, at 10:00 a.m., local time, at Seller’s offices at 1000 Louisiana, Suite 5800, Houston, Texas 77002,
or at such other place or time as the Parties may agree. The date on which the Closing actually occurs is hereinafter referred to as (the “Closing Date”); provided, however, that if the Closing occurs and Buyer’s
payments made pursuant to Section 2.2 hereof are not received on such date prior to 4:00 p.m., local time, in the accounts designated by Seller pursuant to Section 2.2, then the Closing Date shall be the immediately following Business Day.
The time at which the Closing shall be deemed effective shall be midnight on the Closing Date. For the avoidance of doubt, “midnight” means the end of the day on the Closing Date.

respective periods covered thereby, subject to normal year-end adjustments and the absence of footnote disclosure.

 20 







 (iii) violate any order, writ, injunction, decree, statute, rule or regulation applicable
to Buyer, or any of its assets;

 (b) Except for (i) the filings by Buyer and Seller required by the HSR Act and the expiration or earlier termination of all waiting periods under the HSR Act, and (ii) the Required Regulatory Approvals set
forth on Schedule 4.3(b) attached hereto (collectively, the “Buyer Required Regulatory Approvals”), no declaration, filing or registration with, notice to, or authorization, consent, or approval of, any Governmental

 (i) Seller and Buyer shall, to the extent permissible under applicable laws and under the terms of such Assigned Contract, cause the respective Assignor and Assignee to enter into arrangements intended to put such

of any such Assigned Contract to be assigned and assumed or novated or the failure of such arrangements to be entered into.

described on Schedule 2.5(a)(iii). 
 Section 5.10 Employee Matters. 
 (a) Buyer agrees to provide, or to cause an Affiliate to provide, written offers of employment to
all then current Employees who are not on leave (excluding any vacation or short-term disability leave) on the date of such offer at least fifteen (15) days prior to the Employee Transition Date (defined below) and to hire the Employees who
wish to accept such offers of employment (the “Hired Employees”). The offers shall provide Employees not less than five (5) days to accept or reject such offers in writing and provided that the fifth (5th) day of such five (5) day period shall occur prior to the Closing Date. Except as provided in Section 

  

 30 







 
5.10(c), the effective date of such employment (the “Employee Transition Date”) shall be 12:01 a.m. of the day immediately following
the day of Closing. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, Buyer shall have no obligations to provide an offer of employment to, or hire, any Employee who does not satisfy Buyer’s generally applicable employment conditions.

 (b) Buyer shall provide to Seller copies of any written offers of employment made to the Employees within five (5) days of providing
such written offers to the Employees. At least seven (7) days prior to the Employee Transition Date, Buyer shall notify Seller in writing of the Employees who have accepted offers of employment with Buyer. 
 (c) In the case of an Employee who is on leave as of the Closing Date, such Employee’s employment with Buyer shall be subject to the Employee
becoming able to return to active service, and shall be effective upon the Employee’s acceptance of such offer and actual return to active service, within six (6) months of the Closing Date, or later if so required under applicable law.
References in this Section 5.10 to “Employee Transition Date” shall mean, with respect to Employees on leave as of the Closing Date, the effective date of such Employees’ employment with Buyer pursuant to this
Section 5.10(c). 
 (d) Buyer agrees to employ the Hired Employees on terms that are (i) generally comparable in the aggregate to
such Employees’ current employment terms with respect to salary, bonuses and base hours (as set forth in the letter provided to Buyer pursuant to Section 3.13(b)) and (ii) generally comparable in the aggregate with respect to benefits
(including, without limitation, medical, retirement, severance benefits and vacation) provided to similarly situated employees of Buyer and its Affiliates (with credit for any existing payments toward deductibles). Buyer agrees to provide such
benefits to Hired Employees for a period of one (1) year following the Employee Transition Date, provided the particular Hired Employee remains employed by Buyer or one of its Affiliates during such period. 
 (e) Effective immediately preceding the Employee Transition Date and except as otherwise provided herein, the Hired Employees’ employment with
Seller or Seller’s Affiliate shall terminate and the Hired Employees shall no longer participate in any Benefit Plan. 
 (f) Effective
immediately upon the Employee Transition Date and except as otherwise provided herein, the Hired Employees’ employment with Buyer shall commence and the Hired Employees shall be immediately eligible to participate in Buyer’s employee
benefit plans, programs, practices and arrangements subject to generally applicable eligibility provisions contained therein. 
 (g) In the
event that any Hired Employee is terminated (other than for cause) within the twelve-month period beginning on the Closing Date, Buyer shall provide such terminated Hired Employee with severance payments and benefits at least equal to the severance
payments and benefits that would have been provided as of the Closing Date under the Dynegy Inc. Severance Pay Plan or the Dynegy Inc. Executive Severance Pay Plan, as applicable, but calculated pursuant to the terms of such plans as in effect on
the Effective Date, based on such Hired Employee’s title immediately prior to the Employee Transition Date. 
  

 31 







 (h) Buyer shall not assume any of the Benefit Plans and shall have no obligations and shall have no
liabilities with respect to the Benefit Plans. Claims for workers’ compensation or long-term disability benefits arising out of occurrences prior to the Employee Transition Date shall be the responsibility of Seller and its applicable
Affiliates. Claims for workers’ compensation or long-term disability benefits for Hired Employees arising out of occurrences on or subsequent to the Employee Transition Date shall be the responsibility of Buyer. Nothing herein shall be
deemed or construed to (i) give rise to any rights, claims, benefits, or causes of action to any Employee or (ii) prevent, restrict, or limit Buyer or Seller or their Affiliates following the Employee Transition Date from terminating the
employment of any Employee or modifying or terminating its pension or other benefit plans, programs or policies from time to time as they may deem appropriate. 
 (i) Hired Employees shall be credited with the same number of years of service, including partial years of service, as they are credited by Seller, or an Affiliate of Seller, under the applicable Benefit Plan, for
severance, eligibility, vesting purposes and benefit accrual except (i) for benefit accrual under a defined benefit pension plan, (ii) to the extent such credit would result in a duplication of benefits, or (iii) to the extent such
crediting of service would exceed the years of credited service recognized under the applicable Buyer or Affiliate benefit plan for other similarly situated plan participants. Hired Employees shall (if permitted by Buyer’s plan) be permitted to
roll-over any Code Section 401(k) account balances and associated loans (if permitted by Buyer’s plan) they may have in the Benefit Plans as of the Employee Transition Date into plans sponsored by Buyer. The Parties shall cooperate
in good faith to permit the transition of Hired Employees from flexible spending accounts maintained by Seller and its Affiliates to similar accounts maintained by Buyer and Buyer’s Affiliates in a manner that is fair to the Hired Employees.

 (j) Seller and its applicable Affiliates shall be responsible for compliance with and liability under Section 4980B of the Code and

 Section 5.12 Casualty. 
 (a) If, prior to Closing, a casualty event causes damage to any of the Company Assets resulting in a material impairment to the value of the Membership
Interests, then Seller shall promptly employ a qualified firm reasonably acceptable to Buyer to estimate (1) the reasonable cost of restoring the damaged or destroyed assets to a condition reasonably comparable to their prior condition, and
(2) the profit, if any, that with reasonable certainty would have been realized by the Company during the period after Closing if the casualty event had not caused damage to or destroyed the assets, as adjusted to account for any tax or other
benefit associated with such damage or estimated loss, respectively (together, the restoration costs and lost profits are referred to herein as the “Restoration Cost”).

this Agreement, and (ii) there shall be no reduction in the amount of the Purchase Price. 
 (ii) If the Restoration Cost
is greater than $500,000.00 but less than ten percent (10%) of the Purchase Price, then, at Seller’s election, either (i)(A) the Purchase Price shall be reduced by the Restoration Cost, and (B) such casualty loss shall not affect the
Closing, or (ii) Seller may terminate this Agreement by written notice thereof to Buyer; provided, however, that if Seller does not provide written notice of its election of the foregoing to Buyer within 45 days after the date of
delivery of the Restoration Cost estimate to the Parties, then Buyer may elect to terminate this Agreement within ten (10) Business Days following the end of such 45-day period.

 (i) Buyer shall, at its sole cost and risk, undertake the restoration of such Company Assets to a condition
reasonably comparable to their prior condition, including assumption of risk of loss or damage to any undamaged Company Assets resulting from such restoration, and any activities by or on behalf of Buyer prior to Closing associated with such
restoration will be subject to Seller’s reasonable insurance and other requirements. 
 (ii) Buyer shall fully cooperate
with Seller and its Affiliates with respect to any claims Seller or its Affiliates may make under their insurance policies (“Seller’s Policies”), and provide any assistance requested by Seller or its Affiliates to assist
Seller or its Affiliates in making and/or pursing any such claims. 
 (iii) To the extent that Buyer’s actions or
inactions reduce the amount of any recovery by Seller under Seller’s Policies, Buyer shall reimburse the amount of such reduction to Seller with 30 days of Buyer’s receipt of Seller’s invoice for same. 
  

 33 







 Section 5.13 Condemnation. If, prior to Closing, any Company Assets are taken by
condemnation, causing a material impairment to the value of the Membership Interests, then Seller shall promptly determine (1) the condemnation value of such condemned assets, and (2) the estimated profit, if any, that with reasonable
certainty would have been realized by the Company during the period after Closing if the assets had not been taken by condemnation, as adjusted to account for any tax benefit associated with such condemnation or estimated loss, respectively
(together, the condemnation value and estimated lost profits are referred to herein as the “Condemnation Value”). 
 (a) If the Condemnation Value is $500,000.00 or less, then (i) neither Buyer nor Seller shall have the right or option to terminate this Agreement, and (ii) there shall be no reduction in the amount of the Purchase Price.

 (b) If the Condemnation Value is greater than $500,000.00 but less than ten percent (10%) of the Purchase Price, then, at
Seller’s election, either (i)(A) the Purchase Price shall be reduced by the Condemnation Value, and (B) such condemnation shall not affect the Closing, or (ii) Seller may terminate this Agreement by written notice thereof to Buyer;
provided, however, that if Seller does not provide written notice of its election of the foregoing to Buyer within 45 days after the date of the condemnation, then Buyer may elect to terminate this Agreement within ten (10) Business Days
following the end of such 45-day period. 
 (c) If the Condemnation Value exceeds ten percent (10%) of the Purchase Price, then Buyer or
Seller may terminate this Agreement by written notice to the other party. 
 Section 5.14 Termination of Affiliate
Contracts. Prior to Closing, Seller shall terminate any and all Contracts between Seller or its Affiliates, on the one hand, and the Company, on the other hand. 
 Section 5.15 Supplement to Schedules. 
 (a) If, prior to the Closing Date, Buyer obtains actual knowledge of a breach of any of Seller’s representations, warranties or covenants contained in this Agreement, Buyer shall promptly notify Seller in writing
of such information so that Seller may have an opportunity to cure such breach prior to the Closing Date and, if so cured, then such breach shall be considered not to have occurred for all purposes of this Agreement. 
 (b) Seller shall have the right, from time to time prior to the Closing, by written notice to Buyer, to supplement or amend Seller’s Disclosure
Schedules with respect to any matter hereafter arising or discovered which if existing or Known at the Effective Date would have been required to be set forth or described in such Seller’s Disclosure Schedules. Any such supplemental or amended
disclosure shall not be deemed to have been disclosed for purposes of determining whether or not the conditions to Closing set forth in Section 6.2 have been satisfied but, if the Closing occurs, such update shall be deemed to have cured any
breach of representation, warranty, covenant or agreement relating to the matter set forth in such update for purposes of indemnification pursuant to Article 7. 
  


 34

 (a) For a reasonable period not to exceed ten (10) Business Days preceding the Closing Date, Seller shall, and shall cause its and its

located at the Generating Facility until after Closing. For a reasonable period not to exceed ten (10) Business Days following the Closing Date, personnel of Seller or its Affiliates shall have the right to access the Generating Facility for
the limited purpose of removing from the Generating Facility the Retained Software License Agreements and Hardware located at the Generating Facility.

with the preparation of audited financial statements of the Company on a stand-alone basis as of December 31, 2007 and the issuance of the related auditor’s report thereon, excluding, however, information related to Affiliates of Seller
not related to the Company.

 Article 7 
 Indemnification 
 Section 7.1
Indemnity Obligations. Subject to the limitations and conditions set forth in this Article 7: 
 (a) Seller shall indemnify,
defend and hold harmless Buyer and its Affiliates and their respective directors, officers, employees and agents (collectively with Buyer and its Affiliates, the “Buyer Indemnitees”) from and against any and all claims,
demands or suits by any Person, and all losses, liabilities, damages, obligations, payments, costs and expenses (including reasonable legal fees and expenses and including costs and expenses incurred in connection with investigations and settlement
proceedings) (each, an “Indemnifiable Loss”), as incurred, asserted against or suffered by any Buyer Indemnitee relating to, resulting from or arising out of (i) any breach by Seller of any representation,
warranty, covenant or agreement of Seller contained in this Agreement or (ii) any Assigned Contract with respect to any period prior to Closing. 
  

 37 







 (b) Buyer will indemnify, defend and hold harmless Seller and its Affiliates and their respective
directors, officers, trustees, employees and agents (the “Seller Indemnitees”) from and against any and all Indemnifiable Losses, as incurred, asserted against or suffered by any Seller Indemnitee relating to, resulting from
or arising out of (i) any breach by Buyer of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement of Buyer contained in this Agreement, (ii) any Assigned Contract with respect to any period from and after Closing; or (iii) any Transfer
Tax obligations imposed on Seller, the Company or their respective Affiliates for which Buyer is responsible under the terms of this Agreement. 
 (c) Any Person entitled to receive indemnification under this Agreement having a claim under these indemnification provisions shall make a good faith effort to recover any Indemnifiable Loss from insurers of such Indemnitee under applicable
insurance policies so as to reduce the amount of any Indemnifiable Loss hereunder. The amount of any Indemnifiable Loss shall be reduced to the extent that the relevant Buyer Indemnitee or Seller Indemnitee (each, an
“Indemnitee”) receives any insurance proceeds with respect to an Indemnifiable Loss. If the amount of any Indemnifiable Loss, at any time subsequent to the making of an indemnity payment in respect thereof, is reduced by
recovery, settlement or otherwise under or pursuant to any insurance coverage, or pursuant to any claim, recovery, settlement or payment by or against any other Person, the amount of such reduction, less any costs, expenses or premiums incurred in
connection therewith, will promptly be repaid by the Indemnitee to the Party required to provide indemnification hereunder (the “Indemnifying Party”) with respect to such Indemnifiable Loss. 
 (d) To the fullest extent permitted by law, no Party nor any Buyer Indemnitee or any Seller Indemnitee shall be liable to any other Party or any other
Buyer Indemnitee or Seller Indemnitee for any claims, demands or suits for consequential, incidental, special, exemplary, punitive, indirect or multiple damages connected with or resulting from any breach of this Agreement (other than breach of this
Article 7), or any actions undertaken in connection with or related hereto or thereto, including any such damages based upon breach of contract, tort (including negligence and misrepresentation), breach of warranty, strict liability, statute,
operation of law or any other theory of recovery. 
 (e) The rights and remedies of Seller and its Affiliates and Buyer under
Section 5.6(f) and this Article 7 are, solely as between Seller and its Affiliates and Buyer, exclusive and in lieu of any and all other rights and remedies that Seller and its Affiliates and Buyer may have under this Agreement or otherwise for
monetary relief with respect to (i) any breach of, or failure to perform, any covenant or agreement set forth in this Agreement by Seller, the Company or their respective Affiliates or Buyer, as applicable, and (ii) any breach of any
representation or warranty by Seller or the Company or Buyer. Each Party agrees that the previous sentence shall not limit or otherwise affect any nonmonetary right or remedy that a Party may have under this Agreement or otherwise limit or affect
any Party’s right to seek equitable relief, including the remedy of specific performance. EXCEPT FOR THE REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES EXPRESSLY SET FORTH IN ARTICLE 3, BUYER ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT NONE OF SELLER, THE COMPANY, AND THEIR
RESPECTIVE AFFILIATES, ARE MAKING ANY REPRESENTATIONS OR WARRANTIES, WHETHER WRITTEN, ORAL, STATUTORY, EXPRESS, OR IMPLIED, CONCERNING THE OPERATION OF THE BUSINESS (INCLUDING ANY RELATING TO LIABILITIES, OPERATIONS OF THE GENERATING FACILITIES,
CONDITION, VALUE 

  

 38 







 
OR QUALITY OF THE BUSINESS OR THEIR PROSPECTS (FINANCIAL OR OTHERWISE), RISKS OR OTHER INCIDENTS OF THE BUSINESS) OR WITH RESPECT TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE
TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY. BUYER ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT EACH OF SELLER AND THE COMPANY SPECIFICALLY DISCLAIM ANY REPRESENTATION OR WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY, USAGE, SUITABILITY, OR FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE WITH RESPECT TO THE
ASSETS OF THE COMPANY OR ANY PART THEREOF, AS TO THE WORKMANSHIP THEREOF, THE ABSENCE OF ANY DEFECTS THEREIN, WHETHER LATENT OR PATENT, COMPLIANCE WITH ENVIRONMENTAL REQUIREMENTS, THE APPLICABILITY OF ANY GOVERNMENTAL REQUIREMENTS, INCLUDING BUT NOT
LIMITED TO ANY FORMER, CURRENT OR FUTURE ENVIRONMENTAL LAWS, OR WHETHER THE COMPANY POSSESSES SUFFICIENT REAL OR PERSONAL PROPERTY TO OPERATE THE BUSINESS, EXCEPT AS EXPRESSLY SET FORTH IN ARTICLE 3. BUYER ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT EACH OF SELLER
AND THE COMPANY FURTHER SPECIFICALLY DISCLAIM ANY REPRESENTATION OR WARRANTY REGARDING THE ABSENCE OF HAZARDOUS SUBSTANCES OR LIABILITY OR POTENTIAL LIABILITY ARISING UNDER FORMER, CURRENT OR FUTURE ENVIRONMENTAL LAWS, WITH RESPECT TO THE OPERATION
OF THE BUSINESS, ALL OF WHICH ARE HEREBY EXPRESSLY WAIVED BY BUYER, UNLESS EXPRESSLY PROVIDED IN SECTION 3.9. 
 (f) Buyer and Seller
agree that, notwithstanding Section 7.1(e), each Party shall retain, subject to the other provisions of this Agreement, including Sections 7.1(d) and 9.3, all remedies at law or in equity with respect to (i) fraud or willful or intentional
breaches of this Agreement and (ii) gross negligence or willful or wanton acts or omissions to act of any Indemnitee (or any contractor or subcontractor thereof) after the Closing Date. 
 Section 7.2 Cap Amount; Minimum Claim. 
 (a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement or otherwise, and subject to the limitations in this Section 7.2, no Buyer Indemnitee shall recover for any Indemnifiable Loss (other than any breach of a representation or
warranty contained in Section 3.1, 3.2, 3.4, 3.10, 3.11, 3.13 or 5.6 or a matter covered by Section 5.6(f)) unless and until the amount of Indemnifiable Loss exceeds (i) an amount equal to $500,000.00 for any single event or
occurrence or any aggregated claims arising out of the same or similar facts, events or circumstances (the “Per Claim Deductible”), and (ii) an amount equal to two percent (2%) of the Purchase Price (the
“Aggregate Deductible”), after which Seller shall have the obligation to indemnify for the full amount of any such Indemnifiable Loss that exceeds the Per Claim Deductible to the extent the aggregate of all such Indemnifiable
Losses exceed the Aggregate Deductible, subject, however, to the Indemnification Cap. 
 (b) The maximum aggregate amount of Indemnifiable
Losses that may be recovered under this Agreement shall not exceed five percent (5%) of the Purchase Price (the “Indemnification Cap”), except for Indemnifiable Losses caused by a breach of a representation or warranty
contained in Section 3.1, 3.2, 3.4, 3.10, 3.11, 3.13, 5.6 or a matter covered by Section 5.6(f) which Indemnifiable Losses, together with any aggregate liability pursuant to 7.2(a), shall not exceed one-hundred percent (100%) of the
Purchase Price. 
  

 39 







 Section 7.3 Third Party Claims Procedures. 
 (a) If any Indemnitee receives notice of the assertion of any claim or of the commencement of any claim, action, or proceeding made or brought by any
Person who is not a Party or an Affiliate of a Party (a “Third Party Claim”) with respect to which indemnification is to be sought from an Indemnifying Party, the Indemnitee will give such Indemnifying Party reasonably prompt
written notice thereof, but in any event not later than ten (10) Business Days after the Indemnitee’s receipt of notice of such Third Party Claim; provided, however, that a failure to give timely notice will not affect the rights or
obligations of any Indemnitee except if, and only to the extent that, as a result of such failure, the Indemnifying Party was actually prejudiced. Such notice shall describe the nature of the Third Party Claim in reasonable detail and will indicate
the estimated amount, if practicable, of the Indemnifiable Loss that has been or may be sustained by the Indemnitee. 
 (b) If a Third Party
Claim is made against an Indemnitee, the Indemnifying Party will be entitled to participate in the defense thereof and, if it so chooses, to assume the defense thereof with counsel selected by the Indemnifying Party; provided, however, that
such counsel is not reasonably objected to by the Indemnitee; and provided further that the Indemnifying Party first admits in writing its liability to the Indemnitee with respect to all material elements of such claim. Should the
Indemnifying Party so elect to assume the defense of a Third Party Claim, the Indemnifying Party will not be liable to the Indemnitee for any legal expenses subsequently incurred by the Indemnitee in connection with the defense thereof. If the
Indemnifying Party elects to assume the defense of a Third Party Claim, the Indemnitee will (i) cooperate in all reasonable respects with the Indemnifying Party in connection with such defense, (ii) not admit any liability with respect to,
or settle, compromise or discharge, any Third Party Claim without the Indemnifying Party’s prior written consent and (iii) agree to any settlement, compromise or discharge of a Third Party Claim that the Indemnifying Party may recommend
and that by its terms obligates the Indemnifying Party to pay the full amount of the liability in connection with such Third Party Claim and releases the Indemnitee completely in connection with such Third Party Claim. In the event the Indemnifying
Party shall assume the defense of any Third Party Claim, the Indemnitee shall be entitled to participate in (but not control) such defense with its own counsel at its own expense. If the Indemnifying Party does not assume the defense of any such
Third Party Claim, the Indemnitee may defend the same in such manner as it may deem appropriate, including settling such claim or litigation after giving notice to the Indemnifying Party of the terms of the proposed settlement and the Indemnifying
Party will promptly reimburse the Indemnitee upon written request. Anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, no Indemnifying Party shall be entitled to assume the defense of any Third Party Claim if such Third Party Claim
seeks an order, injunction or other equitable relief or relief for other than monetary damages against the Indemnitee that, if successful, would materially and adversely affect the business of the Indemnitee. 
  

 40 







 Article 8 
 Termination 
 Section 8.1 Termination. 
 (a) This Agreement may be terminated at any time prior to the Closing by an instrument in writing signed on behalf of each of the Parties. 
 (b) This Agreement may be terminated by Seller or Buyer if the Closing shall not have occurred on or before November 1, 2007 (the
“Termination Date”); provided, however, that the right to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 8.1(b) shall not be available to any Party whose failure to fulfill any obligation under this Agreement
has been the cause of, or resulted in, the failure of the Closing to occur on or before such date. 
 (c) This Agreement may be terminated by
any Party if any Restraint having any of the effects set forth in Section 6.1(c) shall be in effect and shall have become final and nonappealable; provided, however, that the Party seeking to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this
Section 8.1(c) shall have used its commercially reasonable efforts to remove or prevent the entry of such Restraint. 
 (d) This
Agreement may be terminated by any Party if there has been a material breach by the other Party of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement contained in this Agreement if the defaulting Party fails to cure such breach within thirty
(30) days of notice by the non-defaulting Party. 
 (e) This Agreement may be terminated as provided in Section 5.12 or 5.13.

 (f) This Agreement may be terminated by Seller if Buyer fails to deliver to Seller, on or before June 15, 2007, (i) the Buyer
Letter of Credit and (ii) evidence reasonably acceptable to Seller that Buyer has or will have cash available to effect, at the Closing, the purchase of the Membership Interests pursuant to this Agreement. Seller agrees that Buyer’s
provision of a certificate from a duly authorized officer or other authorized representative of Buyer to the effect that the closing of the financing transaction contemplated with Wells Fargo, as previously discussed with Seller (meaning the loan
documents and related agreements pertaining to said financing transaction are executed by Buyer and Wells Fargo and any other lenders participating in the transaction; and all of the conditions to the initial borrowings or advances are satisfied or
waived in accordance with the terms of the applicable financing documents) shall be sufficient to satisfy Buyer’s obligations under clause (ii) above. 
 Article 9 
 Miscellaneous Provisions 
 Section 9.1 Expenses. Except to the extent specifically provided herein or by agreement between Seller and Buyer with respect to the costs
and expenses of Seller, all costs and expenses incurred in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby shall be borne by the Party incurring such costs and expenses, whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby are
consummated; provided, however, Buyer shall pay for all costs in connection with the HSR Act filing. 
  

 41 







 Section 9.2 Amendment and Modification; Extension; Waiver. This Agreement may be amended,
modified or supplemented only by an instrument in writing signed on behalf of each of the Parties. The Parties may (a) extend the time for the performance of any of the obligations or other acts of a Party, (b) waive any inaccuracies in
the representations and warranties of a Party contained in this Agreement or (c) waive compliance by a Party with any of the agreements or conditions contained in this Agreement. Any agreement on the part of the Parties to any such extension or
waiver shall be valid only if set forth in an instrument in writing signed on behalf of all Parties. The failure of a Party to assert any of its rights under this Agreement or otherwise shall not constitute a waiver of such rights. 
 Section 9.3 Survival. Each and every representation and warranty contained in this Agreement shall survive the Closing Date for a period of
twelve (12) months after the Closing Date and shall thereafter terminate and be of no further force or effect, except that (i) the representations and warranties contained in Sections 3.1, 3.2, 3.4, and 3.11 and Sections 4.1, 4.2,
4.3 and 4.5 shall survive for thirty-six (36) months from the Closing Date, and (ii) the representations and warranties contained in Sections 3.10 and 3.13 shall survive the Closing for the period of thirty (30) days past the
applicable statute of limitation plus any extensions or waivers thereof. From and after the termination of each such representation and warranty, none of Seller, Buyer or any officer, director, trustee or Affiliate of any of them shall have any
liability whatsoever with respect to any such representation or warranty. Notwithstanding the immediately preceding sentence, any representation or warranty in respect of which indemnity may be sought under this Agreement will survive the time at
which it would otherwise terminate pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence if written notice of the alleged claim for indemnification, is submitted in good faith together with an estimate of the amount in question, to the Indemnifying Party;
provided, further, that the applicable representation or warranty will survive only with respect to the particular inaccuracy or breach specified in such written notice. If after the expiration of one hundred eighty (180) days from the
date the representation or warranty would have otherwise expired, the controversy is not fully and finally resolved and/or a lawsuit has not been filed and service effected by the Indemnified Party in a court of competent jurisdiction, the
representation or warranty in question shall expire. All agreements and covenants of the Parties herein shall survive the Closing. 
 Section 9.4 Notices. All notices and other communications hereunder shall be in writing and shall be deemed given as of the time of delivery or, in the case of a facsimile communication, of confirmation, if delivered personally,

 Section 9.5 Assignment; No Third Party Beneficiaries. 
 (a) This Agreement and all of the provisions hereof shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Parties and their respective successors and
permitted assigns, but neither this Agreement nor any of the rights, interests or obligations hereunder shall be assigned by either Party, including by operation of law, without the prior written consent of the other Parties.

hereunder or shall create any third party beneficiary rights in any Person. 
 Section 9.6 Governing Law. This Agreement shall be
governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Texas (regardless of the laws that might otherwise govern under applicable principles of conflicts of law). 
 Section 9.7 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of
which together shall constitute one and the same instrument. This Agreement and any amendments hereto, to the extent signed and delivered by means of a facsimile machine or e-mail of a PDF file containing a copy of an executed agreement (or
signature page thereto), shall be treated in all manner and respects and for all purposes as an original agreement or instrument and shall be considered to have the same binding legal effect as if it were the original signed version thereof
delivered in Person. At the request of any Party hereto, the other Party hereto shall re-execute original forms thereof and deliver them to the requesting Party. No Party hereto shall raise the use of a facsimile machine to deliver a
signature or the fact that any signature or agreement or instrument was transmitted or communicated through the use of a facsimile machine or e-mail of a PDF file containing a copy of an executed agreement (or signature page thereto) as a
defense to the formation or enforceability of this Agreement, and each such Party forever waives any such defense.

referred to herein or in any agreement or instrument that is referred to herein means such agreement, instrument, statute, regulation, rule or order as from time to time amended, modified or supplemented, including (in the case of agreements or
instruments) by waiver or consent and (in the case of statutes, regulations, rules or orders) by succession of comparable successor statutes, regulations, rules or orders and references to all attachments thereto and instruments incorporated
therein. References to a Person are also to its permitted successors and assigns. Each Party acknowledges that it has been represented by counsel in connection with the review and execution of this Agreement and, accordingly, there shall be no

transaction contemplated hereby. Each of the Parties agrees to commence any action, suit or proceeding relating hereto in the United States District Court for the Southern District of Texas or, if such suit, action or proceeding may not be brought
in such court for jurisdictional reasons, in any court of the State of Texas sitting in Harris County. Each of the Parties further agrees that service of process, summons, notice or document by hand delivery or U.S. registered mail at the address
specified for such Party in Section 9.4 (or such other address specified by such Party from time to time pursuant to Section 9.4) shall be effective service of process for any action, suit or proceeding brought against such Party in any
such court. Each of the Parties irrevocably and unconditionally waives any objection to the laying of venue of any action, suit or proceeding arising out of this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby in (i) any court of the State of

enforced, the Parties shall negotiate in good faith to modify this Agreement so as to effect the original intent of the Parties as closely as possible to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law in an acceptable manner to the end that the
