**Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.**

On April 1, 2026, Clearway Energy LLC (the "Company"), Clearway Energy, Inc., the parent company of the Company ("Clearway Inc."), and Clearway Energy Group LLC ("CEG") entered into a Third Amended and Restated Exchange Agreement (the "Third Amended Exchange Agreement"), which amends and restates the Second Amended and Restated Exchange Agreement, dated as of October 28, 2024, among the Company, Clearway Inc. and CEG (the "Second Amended Exchange Agreement"). Under the Second Amended Exchange Agreement, CEG (and certain permitted assignees and permitted transferees who acquire Class B units or Class D units of the Company (collectively with CEG, the "CEG Unitholders")) was entitled to, from time to time, (i) exchange its Class B units of the Company for shares of Class A common stock of Clearway Inc. ("Class A common stock") and (ii) exchange its Class D units of the Company for shares of Class C common stock of Clearway Inc. ("Class C common stock"), in each case, on a one-for-one basis, subject to equitable adjustments for stock splits, stock dividends and reclassifications; provided, that, upon any exchange of Class B units of the Company for shares of Class A common stock or any exchange of Class D units of the Company for shares of Class C common stock, a corresponding number of shares of Class B common stock or Class D common stock of Clearway Inc., as applicable, would be extinguished.

The Third Amended Exchange Agreement amends and restates the Second Amended Exchange Agreement to, among other things, provide that a CEG Unitholder may, from time to time, exchange its Class B units of the Company for shares of Class C common stock (rather than shares of Class A common stock), in each case, on a one-for-one basis, subject to equitable adjustments for stock splits, stock dividends and reclassifications; provided, that, upon any such exchange, a corresponding number of shares of Class B common stock of Clearway Inc. will be extinguished.

The foregoing description of the Third Amended Exchange Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the complete text of the Third Amended Exchange Agreement, which is filed herewith as Exhibit 10.1 and is incorporated herein by reference.

In addition, each holder of Class D Units shall be entitled at any time, and from time to time, upon the terms and subject to the conditions hereof and the Clearway LLC Operating Agreement, to surrender Class D Units to Clearway LLC in exchange for the delivery to the exchanging Clearway LLC Unitholder of a number of shares of Class C Common Stock that is equal to the product of the number of Class D Units surrendered multiplied by the Exchange Rate; <u>provided</u> that, (i) each Exchange shall be for a minimum of the lesser of 1,000 Class D Units or all of the Class D Units held by such Clearway LLC Unitholder and (ii) such exchanging Clearway LLC Unitholder must be the record holder of the number of shares of Class D Common Stock that is equal to the number of Clearway LLC Units surrendered.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) A Clearway LLC Unitholder shall exercise its right to Exchange Clearway LLC Units as set forth in <u>Section 2.1(a)</u> above by delivering to the Corporation and to Clearway LLC a written election of exchange in respect of the Clearway LLC Units to be exchanged substantially in the form of <u>Exhibit A</u> hereto (an "<u>Election of Exchange</u>"), duly executed by such holder or such holder's duly authorized representative, in each case delivered during normal business hours at the principal executive offices of the Corporation and of Clearway LLC. An Election of Exchange may specify that the Exchange is to be contingent (including as to timing) upon the occurrence of any transaction or event, including the consummation of a purchase by another Person (whether in a tender or exchange offer, an underwritten offering or otherwise) of shares of Class C Common Stock, or any merger, consolidation or other business combination.

To the extent the Class C Common Stock is settled through the facilities of The Depository Trust Company (the "<u>DTC</u>"), the Corporation will, subject to <u>Section 2.1(c)</u> below, upon the written instruction of an exchanging Clearway LLC Unitholder, use its commercially reasonable efforts to deliver the shares of Class C Common Stock deliverable to such exchanging Clearway LLC Unitholder, through the facilities of the DTC, to the account of the participant of the DTC designated by such exchanging Clearway LLC Unitholder. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, any exchanging Clearway LLC Unitholder may withdraw or amend an Election of Exchange, in whole or in part, prior to the effectiveness of the Exchange, at any time prior to 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on the second Business Day immediately preceding the Exchange Date (or any such later time as may be required by applicable law) by delivery of a written notice of withdrawal to the Corporation and to Clearway LLC, specifying (1) the number of Clearway LLC Units being withdrawn, (2) the number of Clearway LLC Units, if any, as to which the Election of Exchange remains in effect and (3) if such exchanging Clearway LLC Unitholder so determines, a new Exchange Date or any other new or revised information permitted in an Election of Exchange. On the Exchange Date, all rights of the exchanging Clearway LLC Unitholder as a holder of such Clearway LLC Units shall cease and such Clearway LLC Units shall automatically be reclassified pursuant to Section 3.2(c)(i) of the Clearway LLC Operating Agreement and delivered to the Corporation by Clearway LLC pursuant to Section 3.2(c)(ii) of the Clearway LLC Operating Agreement. Such exchanging Clearway LLC Unitholder shall be treated for all purposes as having become the record holder of such shares of Class C Common Stock on the Exchange Date. In connection with such Exchange, the Corporation shall automatically cancel shares of Class B Common Stock held by an exchanging holder of Class B Units in an amount equal to the number of Class B Units being exchanged in accordance with this <u>Section 2.1</u>, without any payment for such shares of Class B Common Stock; and the Corporation shall automatically cancel shares of Class D Common Stock held by an exchanging holder of Class D Units in an amount equal to the number of Class D Units being exchanged in accordance with this <u>Section 2.1</u>, without any payment for such shares of Class D Common Stock. The Corporation shall take such actions as may be required to ensure the performance by Clearway LLC of its obligations under this <u>Section 2.1(b)</u> and the foregoing <u>Section 2.1(a)</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) Clearway LLC, the Corporation and the exchanging Clearway LLC Unitholder shall bear their own expenses in connection with the consummation of any Exchange, whether or not any such Exchange is ultimately consummated, except that Clearway LLC shall bear any transfer taxes, stamp taxes or duties, or other similar taxes in connection with, or arising by reason of, any Exchange; <u>provided</u>, <u>however</u>, that if any shares of Class C Common Stock are to be delivered in a name other than that of the Clearway LLC Unitholder that requested the Exchange, then such Clearway LLC Unitholder and/or the Person in whose name such shares are to be delivered shall pay to Clearway LLC the amount of any transfer taxes, stamp taxes or duties, or other similar taxes in connection with, or arising by reason of, such Exchange or shall establish to the reasonable satisfaction of Clearway LLC that such tax has been paid or is not payable.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) Each of the Corporation and Clearway LLC covenants and agrees that it will not take any action that would pose a material risk that Clearway LLC could be treated as a "publicly traded partnership" within the meaning of Section 7704 of the Code. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, no Exchange shall be permitted (and, if attempted, shall be void ab initio) if, in the good faith determination of the Corporation or of Clearway LLC, such an Exchange would pose a material risk that Clearway LLC would be a "publicly traded partnership" within the meaning of Section 7704 of the Code.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) For the avoidance of doubt, and notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, a Clearway LLC Unitholder shall not be entitled to Exchange Clearway LLC Units to the extent the Corporation or Clearway LLC reasonably determines in good faith that such Exchange (i) would be prohibited by applicable law or regulation or (ii) would not be permitted under any other agreement with the Corporation or its subsidiaries to which such Clearway LLC Unitholder is then subject (including, without limitation, the Clearway LLC Operating Agreement) or any written policies of the Corporation or Clearway LLC relating to insider trading then applicable to such Clearway LLC Unitholder. For the avoidance of doubt, no Exchange shall be deemed to be prohibited by any law or regulation pertaining to the registration of securities if such securities have been so registered or if any exemption from such registration requirements is reasonably available.

SECTION 2.2 <u>Adjustment</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) The Exchange Rate shall be adjusted accordingly if there is: (i) any subdivision (by any unit split, unit distribution, reclassification, reorganization, recapitalization or otherwise) or combination (by reverse unit split, reclassification, reorganization, recapitalization or otherwise) of the Class A Units, Class B Units, Class C Units or Class D Units that is not accompanied by an identical subdivision or combination of the Class B Common Stock, Class C Common Stock or Class D Common Stock; (ii) any subdivision (by any stock split, stock dividend or distribution, reclassification, reorganization, recapitalization or otherwise) or combination (by reverse stock split, reclassification, reorganization, recapitalization or otherwise) of the Class A Common Stock or Class C Common Stock that is not accompanied by an identical subdivision or combination of the Class A Units or Class B Units (for this purpose with respect to either or both of the Class A Common Stock and/or Class C Common Stock), or the Class C Units or Class D Units; (iii) other than in connection with a Class A Common Stock Sale or a Class C Common Stock Sale, (A) any issuance of shares of (x) Class A Common Stock or Class C Common Stock by the Corporation or (y) Class A Units or Class C Units to the Corporation that is not accompanied by (B) the issuance of an identical number of (x) Class A Units or Class C Units to the Corporation (in the case of clause (iii)(A)(x)) or (y) shares of Class C Common Stock (in the case of clause (iii)(A)(y)); or (iv) (A) any issuance of (x) shares of Class B Common Stock or Class D Common Stock by the Corporation or (y) Class B Units or Class D Units to CEG or its Permitted Transferees that is not accompanied by (B) the issuance of an identical number of (x) Class B Units or Class D Units, as applicable to CEG or to its Permitted Transferees (in the case of clause (iv)(A)(x)) or (y) shares of Class B Common Stock or Class D Common Stock to CEG or its Permitted Transferees (in the case of clause (iv)(A)(y)). In the event that the Corporation exchanges any shares of Class A Common Stock for Class C Common Stock, or shares of Class C Common Stock for shares of Class A Common Stock, Clearway LLC shall (I) cancel the same number of Class A Units (in the case that shares of Class A Common Stock are cancelled in exchange for shares of Class C Common Stock) or Class C Units (in the case that shares of Class C Common Stock are cancelled in exchange for shares of Class A Common Stock) corresponding with the number of shares of Class A Common Stock or Class C Common Stock, as applicable, that are exchanged and cancelled and (II) issue the same number of Class C Units (in the case that shares of Class A Common Stock are cancelled in exchange for shares of Class C Common Stock) or Class A Units (in the case that shares of Class C Common Stock are cancelled in exchange for shares of Class A Common Stock) corresponding with the number of shares of Class C Common Stock or Class A Common Stock, as applicable, that are issued in such exchange. The immediately preceding sentence shall also apply with respect to any exchange by the Corporation of shares of Class B Common Stock for shares of Class D Common Stock (or vice versa), applying references to such classes of capital stock and the Class B Units and Class D Units <u>mutatis mutandis</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) If there is (i) any reclassification, reorganization, recapitalization or other similar transaction in which the Class A Common Stock or the Class C Common Stock is converted or changed into another security, securities or other property or (ii) any subdivision (by any split, distribution or dividend, reclassification, reorganization, recapitalization or otherwise) or combination (by reverse split, reclassification, recapitalization or otherwise) of such security, securities or other property that occurs after the effective time of such reclassification, reorganization, recapitalization or other similar transaction, then upon any subsequent Exchange, an exchanging Clearway LLC Unitholder shall be entitled to receive the amount of such security, securities or other property that such exchanging Clearway LLC Unitholder would have received if such Exchange had occurred immediately prior to the effective date of such reclassification, reorganization, recapitalization or other similar transaction, taking into account any adjustment as a result of any such subdivision (by any split, distribution or dividend, reclassification, reorganization, recapitalization or otherwise) or combination (by reverse split, reclassification, recapitalization or otherwise) of such security, securities or other property that occurs after the effective time of such reclassification, reorganization, recapitalization or other similar transaction. For the avoidance of doubt, if there is any reclassification, reorganization, recapitalization or other similar transaction in which the Class A Common Stock or Class C Common Stock is converted or changed into another security, securities or other property, this <u>Section 2.2</u> shall continue to be applicable, <u>mutatis mutandis</u>, with respect to such security or other property.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) This Agreement shall apply to the Class A Units, Class B Units, Class C Units and Class D Units held by the Corporation, CEG and CEG's Permitted Transferees, as well as any Class A Units, Class B Units, Class C Units and Class D Units hereafter acquired by the Corporation, CEG or any of CEG's Permitted Transferees. This Agreement shall apply to, <u>mutatis mutandis</u>, and all references to "Class A Units", "Class B Units", "Class C Units" and "Class D Units" shall be deemed to include, any security, securities or other property of Clearway LLC which may be issued in respect of, in exchange for or in substitution of Class A Units, Class B Units, Class C Units or Class D Units, as applicable, by reason of any distribution or dividend, split, reverse split, combination, reclassification, reorganization, recapitalization, merger, exchange (other than an Exchange) or other transaction.

SECTION 2.3 <u>Class C Common Stock to be Issued</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) The Corporation covenants and agrees to deliver shares of Class C Common Stock that have been registered under the Securities Act with respect to any Exchange to the extent that a registration statement is effective and available for such shares. In the event that any Exchange in accordance with this Agreement is to be effected at a time when any required registration has not become effective or otherwise is unavailable, upon the request and with the reasonable cooperation of the Clearway LLC Unitholder requesting the Exchange, the Corporation shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to promptly facilitate such Exchange pursuant to any reasonably available exemption from such registration requirements. The Corporation shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to list the Class C Common Stock required to be delivered upon Exchange prior to such delivery upon each national securities exchange or inter-dealer quotation system upon which the outstanding Class C Common Stock may be listed or traded at the time of such delivery.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) The Corporation shall at all times reserve and keep available out of its authorized but unissued Class C Common Stock, solely for the purpose of issuance upon an Exchange, such number of shares of Class C Common Stock, as shall be deliverable upon any such Exchange; <u>provided</u> that nothing contained herein shall be construed to preclude Clearway LLC from satisfying its obligations in respect of the Exchange of Clearway LLC Units by delivery of Class C Common Stock which is held in the treasury of the Corporation or Clearway LLC or any of their subsidiaries or by delivery of purchased shares of Class C Common Stock (which may or may not be held in the treasury of the Corporation or any subsidiary thereof).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) Prior to the Effective Time, the Corporation and Clearway LLC will take all such steps as may be required to cause to qualify for exemption under Rule 16b-3 (d) or (e), as applicable, under the Exchange Act, and be exempt for purposes of Section 16(b) under the Exchange Act, any acquisitions or dispositions of Equity Securities of the Corporation (including derivative securities with respect thereto) and any securities which may be deemed to be Equity Securities or derivative securities of the Corporation for such purposes that result from the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, by each director or officer of the Corporation who may reasonably be expected to be subject to the reporting requirements of Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act with respect to the Corporation upon the registration of any class of Equity Security of the Corporation pursuant to Section 12 of the Exchange Act (with the authorizing resolutions specifying the name of each such officer or director whose acquisition or disposition of securities is to be exempted and the number of securities that may be acquired and disposed of by each such person pursuant to this Agreement).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) If any Takeover Law (as defined below) or other similar law or regulation becomes or is deemed to become applicable to this Agreement or any of the transactions contemplated hereby, the Corporation or Clearway LLC shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to render such law or regulation inapplicable to all of the foregoing.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) Each of the Corporation and Clearway LLC covenants that all Class C Common Stock issued upon an Exchange will, upon issuance, be validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable, will pass to the applicable exchanging Clearway LLC Unitholder free and clear of any liens, security interests and other encumbrances other than any such liens, security interests or other encumbrances imposed by such exchanging Clearway LLC Unitholder and will not be subject to any preemptive right of stockholders of the Corporation or to any right of first refusal or other right in favor of any Person.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(f) No Exchange shall impair the right of the exchanging Clearway LLC Unitholder to receive any distributions payable on the Clearway LLC Units so exchanged in respect of a record date that occurs prior to the Exchange Date for such Exchange. For the avoidance of doubt, no exchanging Clearway LLC Unitholder shall be entitled to receive, in respect of a single record date, distributions or dividends both on Clearway LLC Units exchanged by such holder and on Class C Common Stock received by such holder in such Exchange.

SECTION 2.4 <u>Withholding; Certification of Non-Foreign Status</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) If the Corporation or Clearway LLC shall be required to withhold any amounts by reason of any federal, state, local or foreign tax rules or regulations in respect of any Exchange, the Corporation or Clearway LLC, as the case may be, shall be entitled to take such action as it deems appropriate in order to ensure compliance with such withholding requirements, including, without limitation, at its option withholding shares of Class C Common Stock with a fair market value equal to the minimum amount of any taxes which the Corporation or Clearway LLC, as the case may be, may be required to withhold with respect to such Exchange. To the extent that amounts (or property) are so withheld and paid over to the appropriate taxing authority, such withheld amounts (or property) shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid (or delivered) to the appropriate Clearway LLC Unitholder.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, each of Clearway LLC and the Corporation may, at its own discretion, require as a condition to the effectiveness of an Exchange that an exchanging Clearway LLC Unitholder deliver to Clearway LLC or the Corporation, as the case may be, a certification of non-foreign status in accordance with Treasury Regulation Section 1.1445-2(b). In the event Clearway LLC or the Corporation has required delivery of such certification but an exchanging Clearway LLC Unitholder is unable to do so, Clearway LLC shall nevertheless deliver or cause to be delivered to the exchanging Clearway LLC Unitholder the Class C Common Stock in accordance with <u>Section 2.1</u> of this Agreement, but subject to potential withholding as provided in <u>Section 2.4(a)</u>.

SECTION 2.5 <u>Settlement of External Asset Value</u>. If, at the time a Clearway LLC Unitholder delivers an Election of Exchange, the Corporation owns any interest in Clearway Finance, the provisions of this <u>Section 2.5</u> shall apply. The Clearway LLC Unitholder shall specify in the Election of Exchange an Exchange Date that is no less than 32 Trading Days following the delivery of the Election of Exchange. On the applicable Exchange Date, such exchanging Clearway LLC Unitholder shall pay to the Corporation, by wire transfer of immediately available funds, an amount in cash equal to (i) the External Asset Value *multiplied by* (ii) a fraction, (A) the numerator of which is the number of shares of Class C Common Stock that would be deliverable to such exchanging Clearway LLC Unitholder upon the applicable Exchange, *multiplied by* the CWEN VWAP of the Class C Common Stock, and (B) the denominator of which is the total number of shares of Class C Common Stock outstanding as of immediately prior to such Exchange, *multiplied by* the CWEN VWAP of the Class C Common Stock.

Article III

SECTION 3.1 <u>Class A Common Stock and Class C Common Stock Sale</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) In connection with any sale by the Corporation of one or more shares of Class A Common Stock or Class C Common Stock for cash (a "<u>Class A Common Stock Sale</u>" or a "<u>Class C Common Stock Sale</u>", respectively), the Corporation shall transfer the net cash proceeds from such sale (after deducting any underwriters' discount and commissions and offering expenses payable by the Corporation) to Clearway LLC, and Clearway LLC shall either (i) issue Class A Units (in the case of a Class A Common Stock Sale) or Class C Units (in the case of a Class C Common Stock Sale), in an amount equal to the number of shares of Class A Common Stock or Class C Common Stock related to such sale, to the Corporation, as the managing member of Clearway LLC, in exchange for such net cash proceeds, or (ii) use such net cash proceeds to purchase Clearway LLC Units from one or more Clearway LLC Unitholders (which Clearway LLC Units shall be automatically reclassified into Class A Units or Class C Units, as applicable, in accordance with Section 3.2(b) of the Clearway LLC Operating Agreement) in exchange for the delivery to the Corporation of a number of shares of Class B Common Stock or Class D Common Stock, as applicable, that is equal to the product of the number of Clearway LLC Units purchased multiplied by the Exchange Rate (a "<u>Clearway LLC Unit Redemption</u>"). Alternatively, the Corporation may purchase Class B Units with the cash proceeds of the sale of Class A Common Stock, or Class D Units with the cash proceeds of the sale of Class C Common Stock, directly from CEG (in which case the corresponding Class B Common Stock or Class D Common Stock held by CEG would be surrendered and cancelled), and such Class B Units or the Class D Units purchased by the Corporation would then immediately convert to Class A Units or Class C Units, as applicable. Upon the receipt of the shares of Class B Common Stock or Class D Common Stock specified in clause (ii) of this <u>Section 3.1(a)</u>, the Corporation shall cause such shares to be cancelled. To the extent the Class B Common Stock or Class D Common Stock is settled through the facilities of the DTC, the subject Clearway LLC Unitholder(s) will use their commercially reasonable efforts to deliver the shares of Class B Common Stock or Class D Common Stock deliverable to the Corporation in a Clearway LLC Unit Redemption, through the facilities of the DTC, to the account of the participant of the DTC designated by the Corporation. The purchase price to be paid to a Clearway LLC Unitholder for Clearway LLC Units purchased from such Clearway LLC Unitholder pursuant to this <u>Section 3.1(a)</u> shall be determined by applying an adjustment that takes into account External Asset Value in a manner consistent with <u>Section 2.5.</u>

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) Clearway LLC, the Corporation and the participating Clearway LLC Unitholder(s) shall bear their own expenses in connection with the consummation of any Class A Common Stock Sale, except that Clearway LLC shall bear any transfer taxes, stamp taxes or duties, or other similar taxes in connection with, or arising by reason of, any Class A Common Stock Sale or Class C Common Stock Sale.

SECTION 3.2 <u>Authorization and Issuance of Additional Units</u>. If the Corporation issues another class or series of Equity Securities (other than the Class A Common Stock, the Class B Common Stock, the Class C Common Stock or the Class D Common Stock), Clearway LLC shall authorize and issue in accordance with Section 3.2(d) of the Clearway LLC Operating Agreement, and the Corporation will use the net proceeds therefrom to purchase, an equal number of membership interests with designations, preferences and other rights and terms that are substantially the same as those of the Corporation's newly-issued Equity Securities. In the event the Corporation elects to redeem any shares of its Class A Common Stock, Class B Common Stock, Class C Common Stock, Class D Common Stock or any other class or series of its Equity Securities for cash, Clearway LLC will, immediately prior to such redemption, redeem an equal number of Class A Units, Class B Units, Class C Units, Class D Units, as applicable, or any other units of the corresponding classes or series, upon the same terms and for the same price as the shares of Class A Common Stock, Class B Common Stock, Class C Common Stock, Class D Common Stock or other Equity Securities of the Corporation so redeemed.

In the event the Corporation or Clearway LLC or any of its successors or assigns (i) consolidates with or merges into any other Person and is not the continuing or surviving corporation or entity of such consolidation or merger or (ii) transfers all or substantially all of its properties and assets to any Person, then and in either case, as a condition to such consolidation, merger or transfer, proper provisions shall be made such that the successors and assigns of the Corporation or Clearway LLC, as the case may be, will assume its obligations set forth in this Agreement, and this Agreement shall be enforceable against such successors and assigns.

SECTION 5.6 <u>Integration</u>. This Agreement, together with the Clearway LLC Operating Agreement, constitutes the entire agreement among the parties pertaining to the subject matter hereof and supersedes all prior agreements and understandings pertaining thereto.

SECTION 5.7 <u>Amendment</u>. The provisions of this Agreement may be amended, supplemented, waived or modified only by the affirmative vote or written consent of each of the Corporation, Clearway LLC, CEG and the Requisite Holders; <u>provided</u>, <u>however</u>, that no such amendment, supplement, waiver or modification shall (i) materially alter or change any rights or obligations of any Clearway LLC Unitholders in a manner that is different or prejudicial relative to any other Clearway LLC Unitholders, without the prior written consent of at least two-thirds (2/3) in interest of the Clearway LLC Unitholders (based on the number of Clearway LLC Units held by such holders) affected in such a different or prejudicial manner or (ii) alter, supplement or amend the Exchange Rate as adjusted from time to time pursuant to <u>Section 2.2</u> hereof (or the adjustments provided therein) without the prior written consent of each affected Clearway LLC Unitholder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Corporation, Clearway LLC and CEG, without the consent of any Requisite Holders, may amend, supplement, waive or modify any term of this Agreement to cure any ambiguity, mistake, defect or inconsistency contained herein.

SECTION 5.8 <u>Waiver</u>. No failure by any party to insist upon the strict performance of any covenant, duty, agreement or condition of this Agreement or to exercise any right or remedy consequent upon a breach thereof shall constitute waiver of any such breach of any other covenant, duty, agreement or condition.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) Any dispute, controversy or claim arising out of, relating to or in connection with this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby (including the validity, scope and enforceability of this arbitration provision) shall be finally settled by arbitration. The arbitration shall take place in Wilmington, Delaware and be conducted in accordance with the Commercial Arbitration Rules of the American Arbitration Association (the "<u>AAA</u>") then in effect (except as they may be modified by mutual agreement of the Corporation, Clearway LLC, CEG and the Requisite Holders). The arbitration shall be conducted by three neutral, impartial and independent arbitrators, who shall be appointed by the AAA, at least one of whom shall be a retired judge or a senior partner at one of the nationally recognized Delaware-based law firms. The arbitration award shall be final and binding on the parties. Judgment upon the award may be entered by any court having jurisdiction thereof or having jurisdiction over the relevant party or its assets. The costs of the arbitration shall be borne by the Corporation. Performance under this Agreement shall continue if reasonably possible during any arbitration proceedings.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) EACH PARTY HERETO IRREVOCABLY SUBMITS TO THE JURISDICTION OF THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT FOR THE DISTRICT OF DELAWARE OR ANY DELAWARE STATE COURT, IN EACH CASE, SITTING IN THE CITY OF WILMINGTON, DELAWARE FOR THE PURPOSE OF ANY JUDICIAL PROCEEDING BROUGHT IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE PROVISIONS OF THIS <u>SECTION 5.9</u>, OR ANY JUDICIAL PROCEEDING ANCILLARY TO AN ARBITRATION OR CONTEMPLATED ARBITRATION ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO OR CONCERNING THIS AGREEMENT. Such ancillary judicial proceedings include any suit, action or proceeding to compel arbitration, to obtain temporary or preliminary judicial relief in aid of arbitration, or to confirm an arbitration award. The parties acknowledge that the forum designated by this paragraph (c) has a reasonable relation to this Agreement, and to the parties' relationship with one another.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) The parties hereby waive, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, any objection which they now or hereafter may have to personal jurisdiction or to the laying of venue of any such ancillary suit, action or proceeding brought in any court referred to in the preceding paragraph of this <u>Section 5.9</u> and such parties agree not to plead or claim the same, and agree that service of process upon such party in any such action, suit, demand or proceeding shall be effective if notice is given in accordance with <u>Section 5.2</u>.

SECTION 5.10 <u>Counterparts</u>. This Agreement may be executed and delivered (including by facsimile transmission or by e-mail delivery of a ".pdf" format data file) in one or more counterparts, and by the different parties hereto in separate counterparts, each of which when executed and delivered shall be deemed to be an original but all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same agreement. Copies of executed counterparts transmitted by telecopy, by e-mail delivery of a ".pdf" format data file or other electronic transmission service shall be considered original executed counterparts for purposes of this <u>Section 5.10</u>.

SECTION 5.11 <u>Tax Treatment</u>. This Agreement shall be treated as part of the partnership agreement of Clearway LLC as described in Section 761(c) of the Code and Sections 1.704-1 (b)(2)(ii)(h) and 1.761-1(c) of the Treasury Regulations promulgated thereunder.

SECTION 5.12 <u>Specific Performance</u>. The parties hereto agree that irreparable damage would occur in the event that any of the provisions of this Agreement were not performed in accordance with their specific terms or were otherwise breached. It is accordingly agreed that the parties shall be entitled to specific performance of the terms and provisions hereof, in addition to any other remedy to which they are entitled at law or in equity.

SECTION 5.13 <u>Independent Nature of Clearway LLC Unitholders' Rights and Obligations</u>. The obligations of each Clearway LLC Unitholder hereunder are several and not joint with the obligations of any other Clearway LLC Unitholder, and no Clearway LLC Unitholder shall be responsible in any way for the performance of the obligations of any other Clearway LLC Unitholder hereunder. The decision of each Clearway LLC Unitholder to enter into to this Agreement has been made by such Clearway LLC Unitholder independently of any other Clearway LLC Unitholder. Nothing contained herein, and no action taken by any Clearway LLC Unitholder pursuant hereto, shall be deemed to constitute an action of the Clearway LLC Unitholders as a partnership, an association, a joint venture or any other kind of entity, or create a presumption that the Clearway LLC Unitholders are in any way acting in concert or as a group with respect to such obligations or the transactions contemplated hereby and the Corporation acknowledges that the Clearway LLC Unitholders are not acting in concert or as a group, and the Corporation will not assert any such claim, with respect to such obligations or the transactions contemplated hereby.

SECTION 5.14 <u>Applicable Law</u>. This Agreement shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the law of the State of Delaware.
