the voting power of such Class B Membership Interests) (such cumulative
vote being a “Majority Vote”) shall be required to authorize or approve
any such matter; provided that for Major Decisions prior to the Flip
Date, the affirmative vote, consent or approval of Members owning more than *****
of the outstanding Membership Interests (based on the voting power of such
Membership Interests) shall be required to authorize or approve such Major
Decision in addition to any other approval otherwise required by this Agreement
or the Act (a “Super-Majority Vote”); provided further, that, following the Flip Date, the approval of (A) the Members
representing a Super-Majority Vote shall be required for Special Major
Decisions and (B) the
Members representing a Majority Vote shall be required for the other Major
Decisions. Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, no
separate vote, consent or approval of either Class A Members acting as a
class, or Class B Members acting as a class, shall be required to
authorize or approve any matter for which a vote, consent or approval of
Members is required under this Agreement.

 

Section 3.3.            Management Rights. No Member
other than the Managing Member shall have any right, power or authority to take
part in the management or control of the business of, or transact any business
for, the Company, to sign for or on behalf of the Company or to bind the
Company in any manner whatsoever. Except as otherwise provided herein, neither
the Managing Member nor the Manager shall hold out or represent to any third
party that any other Member has any such power or right or that any Member is
anything other than a member in the Company. A Member shall not be deemed to be
participating in the control of the business of the Company by virtue of its
possessing or exercising any rights in this Agreement or the Act or any other
agreement relating to the Company.

 

Section 3.4.            Other Activities.

 

(a)           Notwithstanding any duty otherwise existing at law or in equity, any
Member or the Manager may engage in or possess an interest in other business
ventures of every nature and description, independently or with others, even if
such activities

 

6

 

compete
directly with the business of the Company, and neither the Company nor any of
the Members shall have any rights by virtue of this Agreement in and to such
independent ventures or any income, profits or property derived from them.
Subject to the generality of the foregoing, the Members recognize and agree
that they and their respective Affiliates currently engage in certain activities
involving the generation, transmission, distribution, marketing and trading of
electricity and other energy products (including futures, options, swaps,
exchanges of future positions for physical deliveries and commodity trading),
and the gathering, processing, storage and transportation of such products, as
well as other commercial activities related to such products, and that these
and other activities by Members and their Affiliates (herein referred to as “Outside
Activities”) may be made possible or more profitable by reason of the
Company’s activities. The Members agree that (A) no Member or Affiliate of
a Member shall be restricted in its right to conduct, individually or jointly
with others, for its own account any Outside Activities, other than any activity
which would cause a Member to become a Related Person, and (B) no Member
or its Affiliates shall have any duty or obligation, express or implied, to
account to, or to share the results or profits of such Outside Activities with,
the Company, any other Member or any Affiliate of any other Member, by reason
of such Outside Activities.

 

(b)           The Members and the Company agree that UPC and MN and their Affiliates
shall have the right to build additional wind projects (each, an “Expansion
Project”) in the areas around the Project site described in Schedule
3.4(b), which Expansion Projects shall have the right to use the Shared
Facilities; provided that the Company, UPC, MN and any Affiliate of
either of them that undertakes to build an Expansion Project, shall enter into
a build-out agreement in substantially the form of Exhibit E (together
with any changes agreed to among the parties thereto); provided further
that the Members, the Company and the Project Company shall have no liability
for the wind effect of the Project on any Expansion Project. The Members
further agree that each of UPC, MN and any Affiliate of either of them that
undertakes to build an Expansion Project shall be a third-party beneficiary of
this Section 3.4(b) and shall have the right to enforce the
provisions of this Section 3.4(b) against the Members and the
Company.

 

Section 3.5.            No Right to Withdraw.  Except as otherwise provided in Section 9.6,
no Member shall have any right to resign voluntarily or otherwise withdraw from
the Company without the prior written consent of each of the remaining Members
of the Company in their sole and absolute discretion.

 

Section 3.6.
Limitation of Liability of Members; Standard of Care.

 

(a)           Anything in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, the
Managing Member does not guarantee any Tax Credits or any outcome or event or
that the

 

7

 

Company
will in fact comply with any applicable legal or contractual obligation.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Managing Member shall be required to perform
its duties and obligations hereunder (i), in instances not involving the direct
or indirect operation and management of the Project and the Company, in good
faith and in a manner reasonably believed to be in the best interest of the
Company and (ii) in accordance with the Prudent Operator Standard. The
Members shall be required to perform their duties and obligations hereunder in
good faith.

 

(b)           Each Member’s liability shall be limited as described in the Act and
other applicable Legal Requirements. Except as otherwise required by the Act,
the debts, obligations and liabilities of the Company, whether arising in
contract, tort or otherwise, shall be the debts, obligations and liabilities
solely of the Company, and the Members of the Company shall not be obligated
personally for any of such debts, obligations or liabilities solely by reason
of being a Member of the Company. In respect of any specific matter or
circumstance requiring interpretation, application, or enforcement of Material
Contracts, the Managing Member may rely on the advice of legal counsel and
qualified industry consultants engaged to advise the Managing Member or the
Company with respect to such matter or circumstance. The Managing Member shall
have no liability to the Company or any Member in respect of any election made
in good faith pursuant to Section 7.3. In no event shall any Member or the
Manager be liable under this Agreement to another Member for any lost profits
of, or any consequential, punitive, special or incidental damages incurred by,
such Member arising from a breach of this Agreement, provided that this shall
in no way limit any such liability of a Member or the Manager to another Member
under any other Transaction Document; provided, however, that to
the extent Tax Credits are lost as a result of breach of the Managing Member’s
duties, the value of such lost Tax Credits shall not constitute consequential
damages, whether or not the underlying loss of production constitutes consequential
damages for which no recovery hereunder is permitted.

 

(c)           Each of the Members shall be fully protected in relying in good faith
upon the records of the Company and upon such information, opinions, reports or
statements presented to the Company by any other Person who is a Member, the
Manager or any officer or employee of the Company, or by any other individual
as to matters the Members reasonably believe are within such other individual’s
professional or expert competence, including information, opinions, reports or
statements as to the value and amount of the assets, liabilities, profits or
losses of the Company or any other facts pertinent to the existence and amount
of assets from which distribution to the Members might properly be paid.

 

(d)           To the extent that, at law or in equity, a Member, in its capacity as a
member or manager of the Company or otherwise, has duties (including fiduciary
duties) and liabilities relating thereto to the Company or to any Member or other Person bound

 

8

 

by
this Agreement, such Member, acting under this Agreement shall not be liable to
the Company or to any Member or other Person bound by this Agreement for its
good faith reliance on the provisions of this Agreement; provided that
this Section 3.6(c) shall not be construed to limit obligations or
liabilities therefor, in each case as expressly stated in this Agreement or any
other Transaction Document. The provisions of this Agreement, to the extent
that they restrict the duties and liabilities of a Member, in its capacity as a
member or manager of the Company or otherwise, are agreed by the Members to
replace such other duties and liabilities of such Member otherwise existing at
law or in equity.

 

(e)           UPC Hawaii, in its capacity as a Member or Managing Member, shall not
have any liability for breach of contract (except as provided in (i) and (ii) below)
or breach of duties (including fiduciary duties) of a member or manager to the
Company or to any other Person that is a party to or is otherwise bound by this
Agreement, in each case, to the fullest extent permitted by the Act; provided
that this Agreement shall not limit or eliminate liability for any (i) obligations
expressly imposed on UPC Hawaii, as a Member or Managing Member, pursuant to
this Agreement or any other Transaction Document or (ii) act or omission
that constitutes a bad faith violation of the implied contractual covenant of
good faith and fair dealing. The Managing Member, in its capacity as the
Managing Member, shall have no liability to the Company or to the other Members
for actions taken, or decisions not to act taken, with the approval of the
Members representing a Super-Majority Vote prior to the Flip Date and,
following the Flip Date, with the approval of (A) the Members representing
a Super-Majority Vote for Special Major Decisions and (B) the Members representing a Majority Vote for the other
Major Decisions; provided that the Managing Member shall not be excused
from liability hereunder for such actions, or decisions not to act, that are
performed in a negligent manner. The Managing Member shall have no liability
resulting from any economic losses, reduced Project Company revenues or reduced
generation of electricity at the Project resulting solely from the actual level
of wind resource available at the Project at any given time.

 

(f)            The Managing Member shall not have any
liability to the Company, any Class B Member or any other Person bound by
this Agreement for damages resulting from a breach or breaches by (i) the
Manager of any of its obligations, covenants or agreements under the Management
Services Agreement or (ii) by the Operator of any of its obligations,
covenants or agreements under the O&M Agreement, except to the extent that
it is finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction (not subject to
appeal) that the Managing Member failed to perform its supervisory obligations
hereunder with respect to the Management Services Agreement or the O&M
Agreement in accordance with the Prudent Operator Standard.

 

Section 3.7.            Liability for Deficits. None
of the Members shall be liable to the Company for any deficit in its Capital
Account, nor shall such deficits be deemed assets

 

9

 

of
the Company, except to the extent otherwise provided by law with respect to
third-party creditors of the Company.

 

Section 3.8.            Company Property. All
property owned by the Company, whether real or personal, tangible or intangible
and wherever located, shall be deemed to be owned by the Company, and no
Member, individually, shall have any ownership of such property.

 

Section 3.9.            Retirement, Resignation,
Expulsion, Incompetence, Bankruptcy or Dissolution of a Member. The
retirement, resignation, expulsion, Bankruptcy or dissolution of a Member shall
not, in and of itself, dissolve the Company. The successors in interest to the
bankrupt Member shall, for the purpose of settling the estate, have all of the
rights of such Member, including the same rights and subject to the same
limitations that such Member would have had under the provisions of this
Agreement to Transfer its Membership Interest. A successor in interest to a
Member shall not become a substituted Member except as provided in this
Agreement.

 

Section 3.10.          Withdrawal of Capital. No
Member shall have the right to withdraw capital from the Company or to receive
or demand distributions (except distributions described in Article VI) or
return of its Capital Contributions until the Company is dissolved in accordance
with this Agreement and applicable provisions of the Act. No Member shall be
entitled to demand or receive any interest on its Capital Contributions.

 

Section 3.11.          Representations and Warranties.

 

(a)           Each Member hereby represents and warrants to the Company and each
other Member that the following statements are true and correct as of the date
it becomes a Member (both immediately before and after the time it becomes a
Member):

organized or formed (as applicable), validly existing, and (if applicable) in
good standing under the law of the jurisdiction of its incorporation,
organization of formation; that such Member is duly qualified and in good
standing in the jurisdiction of its principal place of business, if different

such Member has full power and authority to execute and deliver this Agreement
and to perform its obligations hereunder, and all necessary actions by the
board of directors, shareholders, managers, members, partners, trustees,
beneficiaries, or other applicable Persons necessary for the due authorization,
execution, delivery, and performance of this Agreement by that Member have been
duly taken.

 

10

 

(ii)           That the Member has duly executed and delivered this Agreement and the
other documents contemplated herein, and they constitute the legal, valid and
binding obligation of that the Member enforceable against it in accordance with
their terms (except as may be limited by Bankruptcy, insolvency or similar laws
of general application and by the effect of general principles of equity,
regardless of whether considered at law or in equity).

 

(iii)          That the Member’s authorization, execution, delivery, and performance
of this Agreement does not and will not (i) conflict with, or result in a
breach, default or violation of, (A) the organizational documents of such
Member, (B) any contract or agreement to which that the Member is a party
or is otherwise subject, or (C) any law, rule, regulation, order,
judgment, decree, writ, injunction or arbitral award to which that the Member
is subject, except if any such violation would not reasonably be expected to
have a Material Adverse Effect; or (ii) require any consent, approval or
authorization from, filing or registration with, or notice to, any Governmental
Authority or other Person, unless such requirement has already been satisfied,
except that JPMorgan Chase & Co., of which JPMCC is a wholly owned
indirect subsidiary, may be required to file a report pursuant to 12 CFR

(iv)          That the Member is a United States Person.

 

(v)           That the Member is an Unrelated Person.

 

(vi)          That either (i) no part of the aggregate Capital Contribution made
by that Member, constitutes assets of any “employee benefit plan” within the
meaning of Section3(3) of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of
1974, as amended, or other “benefit plan investor” (as defined in U.S.
Department of Labor Reg. §§2510.3-101 et seq.) or assets allocated to any
insurance company separate account or general account in which any such
employee benefit plan or benefit plan investor (or related trust) has any interest
or (ii) the source of the funding used to pay the Capital Contribution
made by that Member is an “insurance company general account” within the
meaning of Department of Labor Prohibited Transaction Exemption 95-60, issued July 12,
1995, and there is no employee benefit plan, treating as a single plan all
plans maintained by the same employer or employee organization, with respect to
which the amount of the general account reserves and liabilities for all
contracts held by or on behalf of such plan exceeds ten percent (10%) of the
total reserves and liabilities of such general account (exclusive of separate
account liabilities) plus surplus, as set forth in the National Association of
Insurance Commissioners “Annual Statement” filed with such Member’s state of
domicile.

 

11

 

(b)           It is expressly understood and agreed that all representations and
warranties in this Section 3.11 shall terminate upon the termination of
the Company; provided,  however, that any representations and warranties

the applicable statute of limitations (including extensions thereto).

thereunder.

 

(c)           The Class A Member agrees to notify each Class B Member within five Business Days of
becoming aware of a breach by the Class A Member, the Company or the
Project Company or any of their respective Affiliates under the Purchase
Agreement, this Agreement or any Material Contract.

 

ARTICLE IV

CAPITAL CONTRIBUTIONS; CAPITAL ACCOUNTS

 

Section 4.1.            Capital Contributions. No
Member will be required to make any Capital Contributions except those that it
is deemed to make for income tax purposes on the Closing Date.

 

Section 4.2.            Capital Accounts.

 

(a)           A capital account will be established and maintained for each Member.
If there is more than one Member in a class, then each of the Members in that
class will have a separate Capital Account.

 

(b)           A Member’s Capital Account will be increased by (i) the amount of
money the Member contributes to the Company, (ii) the net value of any
property the Member contributes to the Company (i.e., the fair
market value of the property net of liabilities secured by the property that
the Company is considered to assume or take subject to under Section 752
of the Code), and (iii) the income and gain the Member is allocated by the
Company, including any income and gain that are exempted from tax. A Member’s
Capital Account will be decreased by (iv) the amount of money distributed
to the Member by the Company, (v) the net value of any property
distributed to the Member by

 

12

 

the
Company (i.e., the fair market value of the property net of
liabilities secured by the property that the Member is considered to assume or
take subject to under Section 752 of the Code), (vi) any expenditures
of the Company described in Section 705(a)(2)(B) of the Code (i.e.,
that cannot be capitalized or deducted in computing taxable income) that are
allocated to the Member; and (vii) losses and deductions that are
allocated to the Member.

 

(c)           The Company’s property will be revalued, and the Capital Accounts of
the Members will be reset to reflect that revaluation as directed by Treasury
Regulation Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(f), immediately prior to the
following events: (i) if any new or existing Member makes a Capital
Contribution in exchange for a new or additional Membership Interest, (ii) if
money or other property is distributed by the Company to a Member to redeem its
Membership Interest, or (iii) if the Company is liquidated.

 

(d)           For federal income tax purposes, the initial Class B Members will
be treated as acquiring undivided interests in the Project on the Closing Date
and the initial Class A Member will be treated as retaining an undivided
interest, and each of them will be treated as contributing the undivided
interest that it owns to the Company. The initial Capital Account balances and
Capital Interest of each Member, and the “inside” basis that the Company will
have in the Project, on the Closing Date are shown in Schedule 4.2(d).

 

(e)           The Managing Member will update Schedule 4.2(d) from time to time
as necessary to reflect accurately the information therein. Any such updating
will be consistent with how this Article IV requires that the Capital
Accounts be maintained. Any reference in this Agreement to Schedule 4.2(d) will
be treated as a reference to Schedule 4.2(d) as amended and in effect from
time to time.

 

(f)            If all or a portion of a Membership Interest
in the Company is Transferred in accordance with the terms of this Agreement,
then the transferee will succeed to the Capital Account of the transferor to
the extent it relates to the Membership Interest so Transferred.

 

(g)           The provisions of this Agreement relating to maintenance of Capital
Accounts are intended to comply with Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-1(b),
and will be interpreted and applied in a manner consistent with such Treasury
Regulation or any successor provision.

ARTICLE V

ALLOCATIONS

 

Section 5.1.            Allocations. For purposes of
maintaining Capital Accounts, after giving effect to Section 5.2, all
items of Company income and loss, gain, deduction and credit will be allocated
among the Members as follows:

 

(a)           for the period through the Flip Date, 100% in the aggregate to the Class B Members, distributed pro rata in
proportion to the Capital Interest held by each such Class B Member;

 

(b)           for the period beginning the day after the Flip Date and continuing
through August 31, 2027, 10.70% in the aggregate to the Class B Members,
distributed pro rata in proportion to the Capital Interest held by each such Class B
Member, and 89.30% in the aggregate to the Class A Members, distributed
pro rata in proportion to the Capital Interest held by each such Class A
Member; and

 

(c)           for the period beginning on September 1, 2027 and continuing
thereafter, 5% in the aggregate to the Class B Members, distributed pro
rata in proportion to the Capital Interest held by each such Class B
Member, and 95% in the aggregate to the Class A Members, distributed pro
rata in proportion to the Capital Interest held by each such Class A
Member.

 

provided, however, that the State Tax Credits
will be allocated entirely to the Class A Member solely to the extent it
can be done without disturbing the other allocations in this Section 5.1
and the distributions set forth in Section 6.1.

 

Section 5.2.            Adjustments. The following
adjustments will be made in the allocations in Section 5.1 to comply with
Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-1(b):

 

(a)           In any Fiscal Year in which there is a net decrease in Company Minimum
Gain, income in the amount of the net decrease will be allocated to Members in
the ratio required by Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-2 or any successor
provision.

 

(b)           In any Fiscal Year in which there is a net decrease in Minimum Gain
Attributable to Member Nonrecourse Debt, then income in the amount of the net
decrease will be allocated to each Member who was considered to have had a
share of such minimum gain at the beginning of the Fiscal Year in the ratio
required by Treasury Regulation Sections 1.704-2(i)(4) and 1.704-2(j)(2)(ii) or
any successor provisions.

 

(c)           No losses or deductions may be allocated to a Member to the extent the
allocation would lead or add to a deficit in the Member’s Adjusted Capital
Account.

 

14

 

Losses
or deductions that cannot be allocated to a Member by reason of this Section 5.2(c) will
be allocated to the other Members, subject to the limitation in the preceding
sentence.

 

(d)           In the event any Member unexpectedly receives any adjustments,
allocations or distributions described in Treasury Regulation Sections
1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d)(4), (5) or (6), gross income will be specially
allocated to each such Member in an amount and manner sufficient to eliminate,
to the extent required by the Treasury Regulations, any deficit in the Member’s
Adjusted Capital Account as quickly as possible. However, an allocation will be
made under this Section 5.2(d) only if and to the extent that the Member
would have a deficit in its Adjusted Capital Account after all other
allocations provided for in Sections 5.1 and 5.2 have been tentatively made as
if this Section 5.2(d) were not in this Agreement.

 

(e)           In the event that any Member has a deficit in its Adjusted Capital
Account at the end of any Fiscal Year after all the other allocations in
Sections 5.1 and 5.2 have been taken into account, then the Member will be
specially allocated items of Company income and gain as quickly as possible to
eliminate the deficit.

 

(f)            The allocations in this Section 5.2 are
required to comply with the Treasury Regulations. To the extent the Company can
do so consistently with the Treasury Regulations, the net amount of the
allocations under Article V and Section 10.2 to each Member will be
the net amount that would have been allocated to each Member if this Agreement
did not have Section 5.2.

 

Section 5.3.            Tax Allocations.

 

(a)           All allocations of tax items of Company income, gain, deductions and
losses for each Fiscal Year will be allocated in the same proportions as the
allocations of book items of Company income, gain, deductions and losses were
made for such Fiscal Year pursuant to Sections 5.1 and 5.2.

 

(b)           Notwithstanding Section 5.3(a), if, as a result of contributions
of property by a Member to the Company or an adjustment to the Gross Asset
Value of Company assets pursuant to this Agreement, there exists a variation
between the adjusted basis of an item of Company property for federal income
tax purposes and as determined under the definition of Gross Asset Value, then
allocations of income, gain, loss, and deduction will be allocated among the
Members so as to take into account any variation between the adjusted basis of
such property to the Company for federal income tax purposes and its initial
Gross Asset Value using the remedial method in Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-3(d).

 

15

 

(c)           Allocations pursuant to this Section 5.3
are solely for purposes of federal, state and local taxes and shall not affect,
or in any way be taken into account in computing, any Member’s Capital Account
or share of income, gain, deductions or losses or distributions pursuant to any
other provision of this Agreement.

 

(d)           To the extent that an adjustment to the
adjusted tax basis of any Company asset is made pursuant to Section 743(b) of
the Code as the result of a purchase of a Membership Interest in the Company,
any adjustment to the depreciation, amortization, gain or loss resulting from
such adjustment shall affect the transferee only and shall not affect the
Capital Account of the transferor or transferee. In such case, the transferee
shall be required to agree to provide to the Company (i) information about
the allocation of any step-up or step-down in basis to the Company’s assets and
(ii) the depreciation or amortization method for any step-up in basis to
the Company’s assets.

 

Section 5.4.                                   Transfer or Change in Company Interest. If the respective Membership Interests or
allocation ratios described in this Article V of the existing Members in
the Company change or if a Membership Interest is Transferred in compliance
with this Agreement to any other Person (including the Transfer by UPC Hawaii
to the Purchasers at Closing), then, for the Fiscal Year in which the change or
Transfer occurs, all income, gains, losses, deductions, credits and other tax
incidents resulting from the operations of the Company shall be allocated, as
between the Members for the Fiscal Year in which the change occurs or between
the transferor and transferee, by taking into account their varying interests
using the proration method permitted by Treasury Regulation Section 1.706-1(c)(2)(ii),
unless otherwise agreed by all the Members.

 

ARTICLE VI

DISTRIBUTIONS

 

Section 6.1.                                   Distributions.  (a)   Except as provided otherwise in this Section 6.1, Section 6.5(d),
Section 6.5(e), Section 9.11(b) or Section 10.2,
Distributable Cash will be distributed to the Members as follows:

 

(i)                                     for the period through the Flip Date, 5% in
the aggregate to the Class A Members, distributed pro rata in proportion
to the Capital Interest held by each such Class A Member, and 95% in the
aggregate to the Class B Members, distributed pro rata in proportion to
the Capital Interest held by each such Class B Member; and

 

(ii)                                  for the period beginning on the day after the
Flip Date and continuing through August 31, 2027, 10.70% in the aggregate
to the Class B Members, distributed pro rata in proportion to the Capital
Interest held by each such Class B

 

16

 

Member,
and 89.30% in the aggregate to the Class A Members, distributed pro rata
in proportion to the Capital Interest held by each such Class A Member;
and

 

(iii)          for the period beginning on September 1,
2027 and continuing thereafter, 5% in the aggregate to the Class B
Members, distributed pro rata in proportion to the Capital Interest held by
each such Class B Member, and 95% in the aggregate to the Class A
Members, distributed pro rata in proportion to the Capital Interest held by
each such Class A Member; provided, however, that any State
Benefits will be distributed entirely to UPC Hawaii.

 

(b)           Distributions pursuant to this Section 6.1
will be made by the Managing Member on each Distribution Date.

 

Section 6.2.                                   Withholding Taxes. If the Company is required to withhold
taxes with respect to any allocation or distribution to any Member pursuant to
any applicable federal, state or local tax laws, the Company may, after first
notifying the Member and permitting the Member, if legally permitted, to
contest the applicability of such taxes, withhold such amounts and make such
payments to taxing authorities as are necessary to ensure compliance with such
tax laws. Any funds withheld by reason of this Section 6.2 shall
nonetheless be deemed distributed to the Member in question for all purposes
under this Agreement. If the Company did not withhold from actual distributions
any amounts it was required to withhold, the Company may, at its option, (i) require
the Member to which the withholding was credited to reimburse the Company for
such withholding, or (ii) reduce any subsequent distributions by the
amount of such withholding. This obligation of a Member to reimburse the
Company for taxes that were required to be withheld shall continue after such
Member Transfers its Membership Interests in the Company. Each Member agrees to
furnish the Company with any representations and forms as shall reasonably be
requested by the Company to assist it in determining the extent of, and in
fulfilling, any withholding obligations it may have.

 

Section 6.3.                                   Limitation upon Distributions. No distribution shall be made: (a) if
such distribution would violate any contract or agreement to which the Company
is then a party or any Legal Requirement then applicable to the Company, (b) to
the extent that the Managing Member determines, in accordance with the Prudent
Operator Standard, that any amount otherwise distributable should be retained
by the Company to pay, or to establish a reserve for the payment of, any
liability or obligation of the Company or the Project Company, whether
liquidated, fixed, contingent or otherwise, or to hedge an existing investment,
including funding reserve accounts for spare parts and operational and
maintenance costs for the Projects, or (c) to the extent that the Managing
Member, in accordance with the Prudent Operator Standard, determines that the
Distributable Cash is insufficient to permit such distribution.

 

17

 

Section 6.4.                                   No Return of Distributions. Any distribution of cash or property
pursuant to this Agreement shall be treated as a compromise within the meaning
of Section 18-502(b) of the Act and, to the full extent permitted by
law, any Member receiving the payment of any such money or distribution of any
such property shall not be required to return any such money or property to any
Person, the Company or any creditor of the Company. However, if any court of
competent jurisdiction holds that, notwithstanding the provisions of this
Agreement, any Member is obligated to return such money or property, such
obligation shall be the obligation of such Member and not of the other Members.
Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, a deficit Capital Account of
a Member shall not be deemed to be a liability of such Member nor an asset or
property of the Company.

 

Section 6.5.                                   Calculation of Internal Rate of Return.

 

(a)           Tracking Progress. The Managing Member will cause the Manager
to calculate at least annually whether the Class B Members have reached
the Target IRR and to send the Class B Members, within 120 days after the
end of each Fiscal Year in which the Target IRR was not achieved, a report (the
“Annual IRR Report”) showing where it believes the Class B Members
are in relation to the Target IRR. The Class B Members holding a majority
of the Class B Membership Interests may invoke the dispute resolution
procedures in Section 12.11 to resolve any item or procedure that is in
dispute, and the conclusion of such dispute resolution procedures will apply in
all subsequent periods to any identical item or procedure.

 

(b)           Notice of Date. The Managing Member will cause the Manager
to notify the Class B Members in writing at least 10 days before the
Distribution Date following the month in which it believes the Class B
Members achieved the Target IRR or at least 30 days before making any
liquidating distributions, in connection with a liquidation of the Company
pursuant to Section 10.1, if it believes the Class B Members will
achieve the Target IRR as a consequence of the liquidating distributions (the “Target
IRR Notice”). The Target IRR Notice will include a report showing the
Managing Member’s calculations and, in the case of a notice delivered in
connection with a liquidation, the allocations and distributions that the
Managing Member proposes to make to the Class B Members under Section 10.2
in light of the calculations. If the Class B Members holding a majority of
the Class B Membership Interests wish to invoke the dispute resolution
procedures in Section 12.11 to resolve any disagreements, then they must
give notice to that effect to the Managing Member before the Distribution Date,
in a case not involving liquidation of the Company, and within 30 days after
receipt of notice from the Managing Member in a case involving liquidation.

 

18

 

(c)           Calculation Conventions. The Managing Member will use the following
assumptions and conventions to calculate the Internal Rate of Return:

 

(i)                                     It will assume that the Fixed Tax Assumptions
are correct, unless they are incorrect as a result of breach of a
representation or covenant by the Class A Member. In all other respects,
Tax Credits and taxable income and loss of the Company for any taxable period
will be calculated based on the amounts actually allocated in accordance with
the federal income tax accounting methods and tax elections actually used with
respect to such period by the Company in the preparation of its federal income
tax reports and returns, or as adjusted on any amended return or as a result of
a federal income tax audit, and taking into account any change in the Section 45
reference price. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary,
the calculation of Tax Credits and taxable income and loss will not take into
account Section 199 of the Code.

 

(ii)                                  Each Class B Member will be assumed to
have owned its Membership Interest since the Effective Date.

 

(iii)                               The Tax Credits and taxable income and loss
of the Company will be treated as earned ratably during the Fiscal Year with
the result that the Taxes on such income, gain or benefit from the Tax Credits
or losses allocated to the Class B Members will be treated as having been
paid or received in four equal installments on the respective estimated tax
payment dates for a calendar year corporate taxpayer during the Fiscal Year,
except that in the Fiscal Year in which the Flip Date occurs, the Tax Credits
and taxable income or loss allocated to the Class B Members for the
Pre-Flip Period will be allocated ratably to each of the four estimated tax
payment dates during the Fiscal Year, and the post-Flip Date amounts will be
treated similarly.

 

(iv)                              Tax savings and tax detriment will be
calculated using a 35% tax rate.

 

(v)                                 Each Class B Member will be treated as
able to use immediately, subject to the same timing described in clause (iii),
and fully the tax benefits it is allocated by the Company.

 

(d)           End-of-Year True Up. If the federal income Tax Return that the
Company files for the Fiscal Year in which the Target IRR is achieved suggests
that the Target IRR was not achieved in the month the Company assumed for reasons
other than inaccuracy of the Fixed Tax Assumptions (unless they are incorrect
as a result of breach of a representation or covenant by the Class A
Member) or the calculation assumptions and conventions in Section 6.5(c),
then the Managing Member will cause the Manager to recalculate when the Target
IRR was achieved and send a new notice to the Class B Members that will be
subject to the same dispute resolution procedures in Section 12.11

 

19

 

as
the original notice, provided the Class B Members notify the Managing
Member of their disagreement with the revised calculation within 10 days after
receipt. The Managing Member will also cause the Manager to calculate the
shortfall in or excess Distributable Cash, in present-value terms using the
Target IRR as the discount rate, that the Class B Members received as a
consequence of the earlier miscalculation (the “Cash  Difference”).
Once the revised calculation becomes final, the sharing percentages in Section 6.1
will be adjusted to the maximum extent necessary to correct, on a present value
basis calculated at the Target IRR, the Cash Difference. The revised sharing
percentages will remain in effect until the Cash Difference has been
eliminated.

 

(e)           Curative Flip Allocations. If, after filing the federal income Tax
Return for the year in which the Company treated the Target IRR as having been
achieved, there is a change in the taxable income or loss or Tax Credits the
Company reported for the period through the end of the month in which the
Target IRR was assumed to have occurred for reasons other than inaccuracy of
the Fixed Tax Assumptions (unless they are incorrect as a result of breach of a
representation or covenant by the Class A Member) or the calculation assumptions
and conventions in Section6.5(c) and the Company has not yet made
liquidating distributions under Section 10.2, then there will be a “Curative
Flip  Allocation.” The Managing
Member will cause the Manager to determine the shortfall between the Target IRR
and the Internal Rate of Return the Class B Members actually achieved
through the last Distribution Date the Company distributed cash under Section 6.1(a)(i).
The sharing percentages in Section 6.1 will be adjusted for subsequent
distributions to the maximum extent necessary to restore the Class B
Members to the Target IRR as of such date. Such change in sharing percentages
shall remain in effect until, and to the extent necessary so that, the
difference between the Target IRR and the actual Internal Rate of Return shall
have been eliminated. The Internal Rate of Return the Class B Members
actually achieved will be calculated using the Fixed Tax Assumptions (unless
they are incorrect as a result of breach of a representation or covenant by the
Class A Member) and the calculation assumptions and conventions in Section 6.5(c).
If an event occurs that would have triggered a Curative Flip Allocation but for
the fact that the Class A Members have already purchased the Membership
Interests of the Class B Members under Section 9.5 of this Agreement,
then the Class A Members will pay in cash, within 30 days of the
occurrence of such event, the economic equivalent of the Curative Flip
Allocation as additional purchase price for the Class B Membership
Interests.

 

ARTICLE VII

ACCOUNTING AND RECORDS

 

Section 7.1.                                   Approved Budget. The Managing Member shall prepare or cause
to be prepared for each calendar year an operating budget showing the
anticipated revenues and expenses of the Company and Project Company for such
calendar year. The

 

20

 

initial
operating budget for the balance of 2007 is attached as Exhibit F. Upon
the Managing Member’s approval of a proposed operating budget for the
succeeding calendar year (commencing with 2008), the Managing Member shall, not
later than October 10 of the current calendar year (commencing in 2007),
submit the proposed operating budget for the succeeding calendar year to the
Members for their review and to the Independent Engineer for its initial review
of and initial comment on the adequacy of such budget, at the Company’s
expense; provided that any further action by the Independent Engineer
requested by one or more Class B Members collectively holding at least 50%
of the Class B Membership Interests shall be undertaken at the requesting
Members’ expense. Unless the Members collectively holding a Super-Majority Vote
(prior to the Flip Date) or a Majority Vote (after the Flip Date) object in
writing to such proposed operating budget not later than October 30, then
the proposed budget shall be deemed approved by the Members (each budget as
attached hereto, approved or deemed approved, an “Approved Budget”). If
such Members disapprove the proposed budget, then the Managing Member shall
prepare or cause to be prepared a revised budget, which shall be submitted to
the Members for their approval and, upon final approval, such budget shall
become an Approved Budget. To the extent that amounts relating to any items of
a proposed budget are not approved, the corresponding amounts for the items in
the preceding year’s budget will continue as part of the budget for such year
until a more current amount for such item is approved under this Section 7.1.
If a budget for any calendar year is not approved by the beginning of such
calendar year, then the budget shall be the prior year’s Approved Budget until
a new budget is approved. The Managing Member may from time to time during the
calendar year amend the Approved Budget to increase any particular line item of
the then-current Approved Budget so long as the increase in such line item does
not exceed 10% (a “Material Variance”) during such year or is not a
Major Decision, without the further vote or consent of the Members, and as so
amended, any such budget shall be an Approved Budget. Any variances from an
Approved Budget in excess of Material Variance shall require the approval of
Members using the vote described in this Section 7.1 and, if so approved,
each such variance shall be added to the Approved Budget, which, as so amended,
shall thereafter be the Approved Budget for the year.

 

Section 7.2.                                   Books and Records and Inspection.

 

(a)           The Managing Member shall keep or cause to be
kept at the principal office of the Company, or at such other location approved
by the Managing Member, complete and accurate books and records of the Company
in accordance with prudent business practices and minutes of the proceedings of
its Members and the Managing Member, and any other books and records that are
required to be maintained by Applicable Law. Such books and records shall be
made available for inspection and copying during normal business hours at the
principal office of the Company by any Member of the Company or any other
Person authorized by such Member to inspect or

 

21

 

copy
such books and records, subject to the confidentiality obligations set forth in
Section 12.12.

 

(b)           The books of account of the Company shall be (i) maintained
on the basis of a fiscal year that is the calendar year, (ii) maintained
on an accrual basis in accordance with GAAP, and (iii) audited by the
Accounting Firm at the end of each calendar year.

 

Section 7.3.                                   Partnership Status and Tax Elections.

 

(a)           The Members intend that the Company will be
taxed as a partnership for federal, state and local income tax purposes. The
Members agree not to elect to be excluded from the application of Subchapter K
of Chapter 1 of Subtitle A of the Code or any similar state statute and agree
not to elect for the Company to be treated as a corporation, or an association
taxable as a corporation, under the Code or any similar state statute.

 

(b)           The Company shall make the following
elections on the appropriate Tax Returns:

 

(i)                                     to the extent permitted under Section 706
of the Code, to adopt as the Company’s fiscal year the calendar year;

 

(ii)                                  to adopt the accrual method of accounting;

 

(iii)                               if a distribution of the Company’s property
as described in Section 734 of the Code occurs or a transfer of Membership
Interest as described in Section 743 of the Code occurs, on request by
notice from any Member, to elect, at such Member’s cost, pursuant to Section 754
of the Code to adjust the basis of the Company’s properties;

 

(iv)                              to elect to amortize the organizational
expenses of the Company ratably over a period of 180 months as permitted by Section 709(b) of
the Code; and

 

(v)                                 if approved in writing by Members
representing a Super-Majority Vote, any other election the Managing Member may
deem appropriate.

 

(c)           The Company shall file an election under Section 6231(a)(1)(B)(ii) of
the Code and the Treasury Regulation thereunder to treat the Company as a
partnership to which the provisions of Sections 6221 through 6234 of the Code
apply.

 

Section 7.4.                                   Company Tax Returns. The federal income Tax Returns for the
Company and all other Tax Returns of the Company shall be prepared as directed
by the Managing Member in Consultation with the other Members. The Managing
Member, in

 

22

 

Consultation
with the other Members, may extend the time for filing any such Tax Returns as
provided for under applicable statutes. At the Company’s expense, the Managing
Member shall cause the Company to retain the Accounting Firm to prepare or review
the necessary federal and state income Tax Returns and information returns for
the Company. Each Member shall provide such information, if any, as may be
reasonably needed by the Company for purposes of preparing such Tax Returns,
provided that such information is readily available from regularly maintained
accounting records. At least 30 days prior to filing the federal and state
income Tax Returns and information returns, the Managing Member shall cause the
Manager to deliver to the other Members for their review a copy of the Company’s
federal and state income Tax Returns and information returns in the form
proposed to be filed for each Fiscal Year, and shall cause the Manager to
incorporate all reasonable changes or comments to such proposed Tax Returns and
information returns requested by the other Members at least ten days prior to
the filing date for such returns. After taking into account any such requested
changes, the Managing Member shall cause the Company to timely file, taking
into account any applicable extensions, such Tax Returns. Within 20 days after
filing such federal and state income Tax Returns and information returns, the
Managing Member shall cause the Company to deliver to each Member a copy of the
Company’s federal and state income Tax Returns and information returns as filed
for each Fiscal Year, together with any additional tax-related information in
the possession of the Company that such Member may reasonably and timely
request in order to properly prepare its own income Tax Returns.

 

Section 7.5.                                   Tax Audits.

 

(a)           UPC Hawaii is the “tax matters partner,” as
that term is defined in Section 6231(a)(7) of the Code (the “Tax
Matters Member”), of the Company, with all of the rights, duties and powers
provided for in Sections 6221 through 6234 of the Code. UPC Hawaii is directed
and authorized to take whatever steps UPC Hawaii, in its reasonable discretion,
deems necessary or desirable to perfect such designation, including filing any
forms or documents with the IRS, taking such other action as may from time to
time be required under the Treasury Regulations and directing the Manager to
take any of the foregoing actions. At the request of any other Member, the Tax
Matters Member will take such action as may be necessary to cause, to the
extent possible, such other Member to become a “notice partner” within the
meaning of Section 6223 of the Code. The Tax Matters Member will be
subject to removal upon the written request of a majority in interest of the Class B
Members through the fourth anniversary of the Flip Date and, thereafter, by a
Majority Vote of Members.

 

(b)           The Tax Matters Member shall direct the
defense of any claims made by the IRS to the extent that such claims relate to
the adjustment of Company items at the Company level and shall cause the
Company to retain and to pay the fees and expenses

 

23

 

of
counsel and other advisors chosen by the Tax Matters Member in Consultation
with the other Members. The Tax Matters Member will deliver promptly to each
Member copies of all communications to or from the IRS relating to potential
adjustments of Company items, promptly advise each Member of the substance of
any conversations with the IRS in connection therewith and keep the Members advised
of all developments with respect to any proposed adjustments that come to its
or the Manager’s, as the case may be, attention. In addition, to the extent
practicable (taking into account any submission deadlines or other relevant
timing considerations), the Tax Matters Partner shall or shall cause the
Manager to (i) provide each Member with a draft copy of any correspondence
or filing to be submitted by the Company in connection with any administrative
or judicial proceedings relating to the determination of Company items at the
Company level reasonably in advance of such submission, (ii) incorporate
all reasonable changes or comments to such correspondence or filing requested
by any Member and (iii) provide each Member with a final copy of
correspondence or filing. The Tax Matters Member will provide Members with
prompt written notice of all meetings or conferences with the IRS and the
Members and their authorized representatives will have the right to attend all
such meetings and conferences at their expense.

 

(c)           For any issue or matter relating to the
period prior to the Flip Date without the approval of a majority in interest of
the Class B Members, the Tax Matters Member shall not (i) commence a
judicial action (including filing a petition as contemplated in Section 6226(a) or
Section 6228 of the Code) with respect to a federal income tax matter or
appeal any adverse determination of a judicial tribunal; (ii) intervene in
any action as contemplated by Section 6226(b) of the Code; (iii) file
any request contemplated in Section 6227(b) of the Code; or (iv) enter
into an agreement extending the period of limitations as contemplated in Section 6229(b)(1)(B) of
Code. For any issue or matter relating to the period prior to the Flip Date
without the approval of each of the other Members, the Tax Matters Member shall
not enter into a settlement agreement with the IRS which purports to bind the Members.
Any cost or expense incurred by the Tax Matters Member in connection with its
duties as Tax Matters Member shall be paid by the Company.

 

(d)           If for any reason the IRS disregards the
election made by the Company pursuant to Section 7.3(c) and commences
any audit or proceeding in which it makes a claim, or proposes to make a claim,
against any Member that could reasonably be expected to result in the
disallowance or adjustment of any items of income, gain, loss, deduction or
credit (including Tax Credits) allocated to such Member by the Company, then
such Member shall promptly advise the other Members of the same, and such
Member, in Consultation with the other Members, shall use commercially
reasonable efforts to convert the portion of such audit or proceeding that
relates to such items into a

 

24

 

Company
level proceeding consistent with the Company’s election pursuant to Section 7.3(c).

 

(e)           If any Member intends to file, pursuant to Section 6227
of the Code, a request for an administrative adjustment of any such partnership
item of the Company, or to file a petition under Sections 6226, 6228 or other
Sections of the Code with respect to any such partnership item or any other tax
matter involving the Company, such Member shall, at least thirty (30) days
prior to any such filing, notify the other Members of such intent, which
notification must include a reasonable description of the contemplated action
and the reasons for such action; provided, however, that this Section 7.5(e) shall
not relieve such Member’s obligation to use all commercially reasonable efforts
to convert a Member level proceeding into a Company level proceeding as
provided in Section 7.5(d).

 

(f)            The provisions of this Section 7.5 will
survive the termination of the Company or the termination of any Member’s
interest in the Company and will remain binding on the Members for the period
of time necessary to resolve with the IRS any and all federal income tax
matters relating to the Company that are subject to Sections 6221 through 6233
of the Code.

 

Section 7.6.                                   Cooperation. Subject to the provisions of this Article VII, each Member shall
provide the other Members with such assistance as may reasonably be requested
by such other Members in connection with the preparation of any Tax Return, any
audit or other examination by any taxing authority, or any judicial or
administrative proceedings relating to the liability for any Taxes with respect
to the operations of the Company and the Project Company or the allowance or
disallowance of any Tax Credits and State Tax Credits arising from the sale by
the Project Company of electricity produced in the Project.

 

Section 7.7.                                   Fiscal Year. The fiscal year of the Company (the “Fiscal Year”) shall be
the same as the taxable year of the Company. The taxable year of the Company
will be a year that ends on December 31, or such other year as may be
required by applicable federal income tax law.

have the authority, powers and responsibilities described in the Management
Services Agreement and as provided herein. The Company hereby ratifies and
approves the Management Services Agreement. Except (a) for duties and
powers delegated to the Manager hereunder or under the Management Services
Agreement,

 

25

 

(b) for
Major Decisions and (c) as otherwise required by applicable Legal
Requirements, the powers of the Company shall be exercised by or under the
authority of, and the business and affairs of the Company shall be managed
under the direction of the Managing Member, who shall take all actions for and
on behalf of the Company not otherwise provided for in this Agreement. Subject
to the provisions of this Agreement, each Class B Member agrees that it
will not exercise any authority otherwise available to it under the Act to bind
or commit the Company to agreements, transactions or other arrangements, or to
hold itself out as an agent of the Company. Decisions or actions taken in
accordance with the provisions of this Agreement shall constitute decisions or
actions by the Company and shall be binding on each Member, manager, officer

(a)           The Managing Member shall be the Member
designated to act as such hereunder from time to time in accordance with the
provisions of this Section 8.2 (the “Managing Member”). The initial
Managing Member shall be UPC Hawaii. The Managing Member shall be responsible
for enforcing, and supervising the performance of the Manager under, the
Management Services Agreement on behalf of the Company and the Project Company
in accordance with the Prudent Operator Standard; provided, however,
that, in the event that the Management Services Agreement is terminated and is
not replaced, the Managing Member shall perform the work, or engage a third
party to perform such work, previously performed by the Manager prior to the termination
of such Management Services Agreement in accordance with the Prudent Operator
Standard, or as otherwise approved by the Class B Members.

 

(b)           Upon the termination of the O&M
Agreement, the Managing Member shall replace such O&M Agreement in accordance
with Section 8.3 and the definition of “Major Decisions” and, to the

time
(i) remove a Managing Member and (ii) fill any vacancy as Managing
Member caused by removal, resignation or otherwise upon (x) a
determination by a court of competent jurisdiction that there is Cause for removal
or (y) following any Bankruptcy, foreclosure or involuntary transfer of

(a)           In addition to any other approval required by
applicable Legal Requirements or this Agreement, Major Decisions are reserved
to the Members, and none of the Company, the Managing Member, the Manager, or
any officer thereof shall do or take or make or approve any Major Decisions
without a Super-Majority Vote.

 

(b)           The Managing Member will submit proposed
Major Decisions to the Class B Members in writing, with each submission to
explain in reasonable detail what is proposed and the basis for the Managing
Member’s recommendation.

Member shall cause the Company to acquire and maintain (including making
changes to coverage and carriers) the casualty, general liability (including
product liability), property damage and other types of insurance in Schedule
8.4 to this Agreement; provided that if any such insurance is not
available on commercially reasonable terms, only such insurance shall then be
required to be carried pursuant to this Section 8.4 as is then available
on commercially reasonable terms. Each Class B Member shall be added to
such insurance as Additional Insured, as its interests may appear, with a
waiver of subrogation permitted in their favor (where legally permitted or
insurance market practice permits). In addition, such insurance shall require
that the Class B Members be provided with 30 days’ written notice of
cancellation and 10 days’ written notice of failure to pay a premium when due
and payable.

Purchase Agreement.

 

(a)           Subject to the Members’ consent as required
in Section 8.3 and the definition of Major Decision, not less than 30 days
prior to causing the Project Company to enter into any new power purchase
agreement, the Managing Member shall provide to the Members notice of the
proposal to enter into such power purchase agreement, together with details
sufficient to allow each Member to determine whether such Member would become a
Related Party upon the Project Company’s entering into such power purchase
agreement.

 

(b)           Any Member that would become a Related Party
if the proposed power purchase agreement were entered into shall so notify the
Managing Member within 20 days following receipt of the Managing Member’s
notice. Upon the receipt of notice

 

27

 

from
a Member pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence, the Managing Member
shall not thereafter cause the Company to enter into such power purchase
agreement without the prior written consent of Members acting on a Major
Decision. Any Member that fails to comply with its obligations to give notice
to the Managing Member shall indemnify and hold harmless the Company, the
Project Company and the other Members from any damages (including loss of Tax
Credits but otherwise excluding consequential, incidental, exemplary or
punitive damages) suffered or incurred by the Company, the Project Company and
the other Members resulting from such Member’s failure to give such notice.

 

(c)           Upon becoming or having knowledge that it or
any of its Affiliates will become a Related Party, the Affected Member shall
immediately notify the other Members of the same. To the extent the Affected
Member does not take all actions necessary to cause it or its Affiliate, as the
case may be, to cease promptly to be a Related Party, or does not dispose of
its Membership Interest to an Assignee pursuant to a Permitted Transfer within
30 days following the date the Affected Member or its Affiliate, as the case
may be, becomes a Related Party for purposes of this Agreement, the Managing
Member shall immediately give notice to the Members that a Buyout Event has
occurred pursuant to Article 9, and shall thereafter use commercially
reasonable efforts to assist any Member exercising its rights thereunder.

 

ARTICLE IX

TRANSFERS

 

Section 9.1.                                   Prohibited Transfers. No Member shall sell, transfer, assign,
convey, pledge, mortgage, encumber, hypothecate or otherwise dispose of all or
any part of its Membership Interests or any interest, rights or obligations
with respect thereto, directly or indirectly (including through a change of
Control or merger of such Member) (any such action, a “Transfer”),
except as provided in this Article IX. Any attempted Transfer that does
not comply with this Article IX, shall be null and void and of no force or
effect whatsoever. The Members agree that a breach of the provisions of this Section 9.1
may cause irreparable injury to the Company and to the other Members for which
monetary damages (or other remedies at law) are inadequate in view of (i) the
complexities and uncertainties in measuring the actual damages that would be
sustained by reason of the failure of a Member to comply with such provision
and (ii) the uniqueness of the Company’s business and the relationship
among the Members. Accordingly, the Members agree that the provisions of this Section 9.1
may be enforced by specific performance.

that the transferee become a Member in its place, and the prospective
transferee makes the representations, warranties and covenants in Sections 3.11
and 3.12 as of the date of such Transfer;

 

(c)           The transferee executes, adopts and

assets or any material contract, lease, security, indenture or agreement
binding on the Company or the Project Company or their assets;

 

(e)           If the Transfer would occur prior to the Flip

transferor or the transferee has indemnified the other Members against any
adverse tax effects in a manner acceptable to the other Members;

 

(f)            The Transfer will not (i) cause the

connection with the Transfer and the admission of the proposed transferee as a
Member of the Company, on or before the tenth day after the receipt by that
Person of the Company’s or such Member’s invoice for the amount due;

 

(i)            The Transfer of a Membership Interest shall not
effect a release of the transferring Member from any liabilities to the Company
or the other Members arising from events occurring prior to or in connection
with the Transfer;

 

(j)            Solely to the extent the following may be

full force and effect or shall be replaced with a guaranty substantially in the
relevant form attached as Exhibit C to the Purchase Agreement by another
entity having the Required Ratings or a Consolidated Net Worth that is at least
equivalent to the Consolidated Net Worth of UPC on the Closing Date; and

 

30

 

(ii)                                  prior to the Flip Date, such Transfer shall

Section 9.5.                                   Certain Permitted Transfers. Except as otherwise provided in this Section 9.5,

merger) of a Class B Member, or any of its Affiliates (excluding a
Transfer by a Class B Member of any Class B Membership Interests); provided,
however, that the requirements set forth in Sections 9.2(d), (e), (f),

(Flip

Section 9.6.                                   Right of First Bid. This Section 9.6 shall apply to any
proposed voluntary Transfer (other than a Permitted Transfer) of Membership
Interests for cash or other tangible consideration. The Member proposing to
make such a Transfer shall provide written notice of its intention to make a
Transfer (an “Offer Notice”) to (i) prior to the Flip Date, all
Members, and (ii) after the Flip Date, the Class A Member only. Upon
receipt of an Offer Notice, the Members entitled to receive the Offer Notice
shall have the right for a period of 30 days to submit to the transferring
Member an unconditional offer to purchase, at the price and on the terms in the
notice of such offer (a “Bid”), all, but not less than all, of such Membership
Interests in such proportions as the offering Members may agree, or, if they
cannot agree, in accordance with the number of Membership Interests of such
class held by each such Member divided by the total number of Membership
Interests of such class outstanding. Upon receipt of a proper Bid, the Member
intending to Transfer its Membership Interests may, in its sole discretion,
accept such Bid by notice to the offering Members within 30 days of receipt of
such Bid, whereupon the offering Members shall purchase such Membership
Interests within five days following receipt of the acceptance of the Bid (or,
in any event if later, the fifth day after the receipt of all applicable
regulatory and Governmental Approvals of the purchase). If the Member intending
to Transfer the Membership Interests does not accept

 

32

 

the
Bid, then such Member shall (x) so notify each Member who has submitted a
Bid, and (y) have the right for a period of 180 days thereafter to
Transfer such Membership Interests at a price no less favorable to such Member,
and upon terms no less favorable in any material respect to such Member, than
the price and terms contained in the Bid; provided that such Transfer
shall be subject to any other applicable provisions of this Section 9.6.

 

Section 9.7.                                   Drag Along Rights. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in
this Agreement and except for Transfers resulting from a Permitted Encumbrance,
if following the Flip Date the Class A Member proposes to make a Transfer
of all, but not less than all, of its Class A Membership Interests in one
or a series of related Transfers to a Bona Fide Purchaser, the Class A
Member may elect to request that all other Members Transfer their respective
Membership Interests to such Bona Fide Purchaser. If the Class A Member
elects to exercise the drag-along right under this Section 9.7, it shall
provide written notice of such proposed Transfer (the “Drag-Along Notice”)
to all other Members. The Drag-Along Notice shall (i) set forth the
material terms and conditions of the proposed Transfer in reasonable detail,
including, without limitation, the proposed purchase price of the Class A
Membership Interests, which shall be payable in cash or other property and (ii) contain
an offer by such Bona Fide Purchaser to purchase from each Member such Member’s
Membership Interest on the same terms and conditions offered to the Class A
Member. The other Members shall take all necessary and desirable actions
requested by the Class A Member in connection with the consummation of the
Transfer.

 

Section 9.8.                                   Tag Along Rights. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in
this Agreement and except for Transfers resulting from a Permitted Encumbrance,
if following the Flip Date the Class A Member proposes to make a Transfer
of all, but not less than all, of its Class A Membership Interests in one
or a series of related Transfers to a Bona Fide Purchaser, and the drag-along
right under Section 9.7 is not exercised, then all other Members shall
have the right to Transfer their respective Membership Interests to such Bona
Fide Purchaser on the same terms and conditions offered to the Class A
Member. The Membership Interests being purchased from the Class A Member
and the electing Members will be reduced on a pro rata basis if the Bona Fide
Purchaser will not purchase all of the Membership Interests being offered. The Class A
Member shall provide written notice of any such proposed Transfer (the “Tag-Along
Notice”) to all other Members. The Tag-Along Notice shall comply with the
requirements of a Drag-Along Notice set forth in Section 9.7. The other
Members electing to participate in the proposed Transfer shall take all
necessary and desirable actions requested by the Class A Member in
connection with the consummation of the Transfer.

 

33

 

Section 9.9.                                   Flip Purchase Option.

 

(a)           Each Class A Member (or any Affiliate of
such Class A Member designated by it) shall have the right, at any time
during the 185-day period after the first Business Day of the calendar year
following the later of the first Distribution Date after the Flip Date or the
tenth anniversary of the Effective Date, to acquire all (but not less than all)
of the Class B Membership Interests (the “Flip Purchase Option”),
upon giving the Company and all other Members 60 days written notice of an
election to exercise the Flip Purchase Option (the “Flip Exercise Notice”)
during such period. Any other Class A Member may elect to participate in
the Flip Purchase Option by giving its own Flip Exercise Notice within 10
Business Days after the first Flip Exercise Notice is given. Unless a Class A
Member has given a Flip Exercise Notice within such 10 Business Day period, it
may not participate in the Flip Purchase Option. Any Flip Exercise Notice, if
given, shall be irrevocable; provided that if a Class A Member
defaults on its obligation to purchase the Class B Membership Interest
pursuant hereto, then the Class B Member shall not be required to sell its
Class B Membership Interests to the remaining Class A Members unless
all of the Class B Membership Interests are being acquired by the
remaining Class A Members.

 

(b)           The consideration for the Transfer of the Class B
Membership Interests to the Class A Members pursuant to the Flip Purchase
Option shall be an amount (payable in United States dollars) equal to the greater of (x) the fair market
value of the Class B Membership Interests as of the date of the purchase
of the Class B Membership Interests pursuant to this Section 9.9 or (y) the aggregate Capital Interest
of all Class B Members adjusted as if the Company had liquidated, as of
the end of the month immediately prior to the date the Flip Exercise Notice is
given (the “Flip Purchase Price”). The fair market value of the Class B
Membership Interests shall be determined by agreement of a majority of the Class A
Members and Class B Members participating in the Flip Purchase Option, or
if they are unable to agree, by appraisal conducted by an appraiser selected
jointly by such Class A Members and Class B Members (and if they are
unable to agree upon a single appraiser within a 15-day period, they shall use
the Appraisal Method), using an appraisal methodology comparable in all
material respects to the Closing Appraisal (unless otherwise agreed by a
majority of the Class A Members and Class B Members participating in
the Flip Purchase Option). Such determination of the fair market value shall be
final and binding on all Members participating in the Flip Purchase Option.

 

(c)           If the Flip Purchase Option is exercised, the
closing of such Transfer shall occur on the Business Day that is (i) 60
days after the applicable Flip Exercise Notice is given or (ii) such later
date as may be required to obtain any applicable consents or approvals or
satisfy any reporting or waiting period under any applicable Legal
Requirements.

 

34

 

(d)           If the Flip Purchase Option is exercised, at
the closing of the Transfer, (1) each Class A Member which has given
a Flip Exercise Notice shall pay (by wire transfer of immediately available
United States Dollars to such United States bank accounts as Class B
Members may designate in a written notice to the Company and Class A
Members no later than five Business Days prior to the closing date for the
Transfer pursuant to the Flip Purchase Option) an amount equal to the product of (i) the Flip Purchase
Price (determined in accordance with Section 9.9(b)), multiplied by (ii) the fraction, the
numerator of which is the Capital Interest of such Class A Member and the
denominator of which is the aggregate Capital Interest of all Class A
Members that have given a Flip Exercise Notice, and (2) each Class B
Member shall take the following actions: (i) such Class B Member
shall Transfer to each Class A Member entitled to purchase, as provided in
Section 9.9(b), all right, title and interest in and to the Class B Membership Interests, free and clear
of all Encumbrances other than Permitted Encumbrances; (ii) such Class B
Member shall be deemed to have made the representations set forth on Schedule 9
attached hereto to each such Class A Member and the Company; and (iii) such
Class B Member shall take all such further actions and execute,
acknowledge and deliver all such further documents that are necessary to
effectuate the Transfer of the Class B Membership Interests contemplated
by this Section. Upon the closing of such Transfer, (1) all of such Class B
Member’s obligations and liabilities associated with the Class B Membership Interests which are the
subject of such Transfer will terminate except those obligations and
liabilities accrued through the date of such closing, (2) such Class B
Member shall have no further rights as a Member, and (3) all the rights,
obligations and liabilities associated with the Class B Membership
Interests which are the subject of such Transfer shall become the rights,
obligations and liabilities of each Person acquiring such Class B
Membership Interests.

 

Section 9.10.                             Replacement of Class B Members.

 

(a)           If (i) an Organic Transaction, with
respect to UPC, occurs anytime between the ***** of the Effective Date and (ii) the
entity resulting from the Organic Transaction represents, warrants and
covenants to UPC Hawaii (or any Affiliate designated by it) that such entity
will not sell, assign, transfer or otherwise monetize the Tax Credits
associated with the Project, then UPC Hawaii (or any Affiliate designated by
it) shall have the right to acquire all, but not less than all, of the Class B
Membership Interests (the “Replacement Option”).

 

(b)           UPC Hawaii or its designee may exercise a
Replacement Option upon giving the Company and all other Members 185 days’
written notice of its election (the “Replacement Exercise Notice”). Any
other Class A Member may elect to participate in the Replacement Option by
giving its own Replacement Exercise Notice within 10 Business Days after the
first Replacement Exercise Notice is given. Unless a Class A Member has
given a Replacement Exercise Notice within such 10 Business Day period, it

 

35

 

may
not participate in the Replacement Option. Any Replacement Exercise Notice, if
given, shall be irrevocable; provided that if a Class A Member
defaults on its obligation to purchase the Class B Membership Interest
pursuant hereto, the Class B Member shall not be required to sell its Class B
Membership Interests to the remaining Class A Members unless all of the Class B
Membership Interests are being acquired by the remaining Class A Members.

 

(c)           The consideration for the Transfer of the Class B
Membership Interests to the Class A Members pursuant to a Replacement
Option shall be an amount (the “Replacement Option Purchase Price”)
equal to the greater of (i) 110% of the fair market value of the Class B
Membership Interests as of the date of the purchase of the Class B
Membership Interests pursuant to this Section 9.10 and (ii) the
applicable value set forth on Schedule 9.10(c) hereto.

 

(d)           The fair market value of the Class B
Membership Interests shall be determined by agreement of a majority of the Class A
Members participating in the Replacement Option and a majority of the Class B
Members, or if they are unable to agree, by appraisal conducted by an appraiser
selected jointly by such Class A Members and Class B Members (and if
they are unable to agree upon a single appraiser within a fifteen (15) day
period, they shall use the Appraisal Method), using an appraisal methodology
comparable in all material respects to the Closing Appraisal (unless otherwise
agreed by a majority of the Class A Members and Class B Members
participating in the Replacement Option). Such determination of the fair market
value shall be final and binding on all Members participating in a Replacement
Option.

 

(e)           If a Replacement Option is exercised, then
the closing of such Transfer shall occur on the Business Day that is (i) 185
days after the Replacement Exercise Notice is given or (ii) such later
date as may be required to obtain any applicable consents or approvals or
satisfy any reporting or waiting period under any applicable Legal
Requirements.

 

(f)            If a Replacement Option is exercised, at the
closing of the Transfer, (1) each Class A Member which has given a
Replacement Exercise Notice shall pay (by wire transfer of immediately
available United States dollars to such United States bank accounts as Class B
Members may designate in a written notice to the Company and Class A
Members no later than five Business Days prior to the closing date for the
Transfer) an amount equal to the product of (i) the
Replacement Option Purchase Price (determined in accordance with Section 9.10(c) and
(d)), multiplied by (ii) the
fraction, the numerator of which is the Capital Interest of such Class A
Member and the denominator of which is the aggregate Capital Interest of all Class A
Members that have given a Replacement Exercise Notice, and (2) each Class B
Member shall take the following actions: (i) such Class B Member
shall Transfer to each Class A Member

 

36

 

entitled
to purchase, as provided in Section 9.10(b), all right, title and interest
in and to the Class B Membership Interests, free and clear of all
Encumbrances other than Permitted Encumbrances; (ii) such Class B Member
shall be deemed to have made the representations in Schedule 9 to each such Class A
Member and the Company; and (iii) such Class B Member shall take all
such further actions and execute, acknowledge and deliver all such further
documents that are necessary to effectuate the Transfer of the Class B
Membership Interests contemplated by this section. Upon the closing of such
Transfer, (1) all of such Class B Member’s obligations and
liabilities associated with the Class B Membership Interests that are the
subject of such Transfer will terminate except those obligations and
liabilities accrued through the date of such closing, (2) such Class B
Member shall have no further rights as a Member, and (3) all the rights,
obligations and liabilities associated with the Class B Membership
Interests which are the subject of such Transfer shall become the rights,
obligations and liabilities of each Person acquiring such Class B
Membership Interests.

 

Section 9.11.                             Buyout Events.

 

(a)           This Section 9.10 shall apply to any of
the following events (each a “Buyout Event”):

 

(i)                                     a Member enters Bankruptcy;

 

(ii)                                  a Member dissolves and commences liquidation
or winding up and such dissolution or liquidation is reasonably expected to
have a Material Adverse Effect on the Company or a Material Adverse Effect on
the Project or any other Member;

 

(iii)                               there occurs an event that makes it unlawful
for the Member to continue to be a Member; or

 

(iv)                              a Member is or becomes a Related Person prior
to the tenth anniversary of the Effective Date, and such Member does not take
all actions necessary to cause it promptly to cease to be a Related Person, or
does not Transfer such Member’s Membership Interest to an Approved Assignee
that is not a Related Person within 30 days after such Member became a Related
Person.

 

In
each case, the Member with respect to whom a Buyout Event has occurred is
referred to herein as the “Affected Member.”

 

(b)           Procedure. If a Buyout Event occurs, then each of the other Members shall have
the option to acquire the Membership Interest of the Affected Member (or to
cause it to be acquired by a third party designated by the other Members) (with
the Members exercising such right being referred to herein as “Purchasing
Members”).

 

37

 

During
the time that any Affected Member is a Related Person, any cash that otherwise
would have been distributed to such Affected Member shall be withheld by the
Company pending the taking by such Member of the actions in Section 9.11(a)(v)
or, in the absence thereof, the purchase of such Affected Member’s Membership
Interest as hereafter set forth. Any cash so withheld by the Company shall be
paid over to the Affected Member upon the completion of the actions specified
in Section 9.11(a)(v) hereof, or the sale of such Affected Member’s
Membership Interest hereunder; provided that such Member shall indemnify
and hold harmless the Company and the other Members from any damages (including
loss of Tax Credits) but excluding consequential, incidental, exemplary or
punitive damages) suffered or incurred by the Company and the other Members
resulting from such Member’s having been a Related Person and, in addition to
any other remedies it may have, the Company shall be entitled to set off the
amount of such damages against the cash withheld from the Affected Member.

 

(c)           Purchase Price; Terms and Method of Payment. The purchase price (the “Buyout Price”)
for a Membership Interest being purchased pursuant to this Section 9.11
shall be (x) the fair market value of such Membership Interest as to which
a Buyout Event specified in Section 9.11(a)(i), Section 9.11(a)(ii),
9.11(a)(iii) or 9.11(a)(iv) has occurred, or (y) fifty percent
(50%) of the fair market value of such Membership Interest as to which the Buyout
Event specified in Section 9.11(a)(v) (the “Related Person Buyout
Event”) has occurred. Fair market value shall be determined in the
following manner:

 

(i)                                     Within 30 days after the Buyout Event, the
Purchasing Members shall appoint a nationally-recognized third-party appraiser
who (A) is qualified to appraise independent electric generating
businesses, (B) has been engaged in the appraisal or business valuation
and consulting business for a period of not less than five years, and (C) is
not associated with any Member or any Affiliate thereof and who is reasonably
acceptable to the Affected Members (a “Qualified Appraiser”). Within 30
days after appointment of the Qualified Appraiser, such appraiser shall
determine the fair market value of the applicable Membership Interest using
valuation methods and practices commonly used in the independent electric
generating industry and taking into account all of the facts and circumstances
relating to the Company, including any cash reserves that may be held by the
Company, but excluding cash withheld from distribution to the Affected Member
pursuant to Section 9.11(b). The decision of the Qualified Appraiser shall
be binding and conclusive on the Parties. The Affected Member on the one hand,
and the Purchasing Members, on the other hand, shall each pay 50% of the fees
and expenses of the appraiser; provided that the Affected Member shall
pay 100% of such fees and expenses in the case of a Related Person Buyout
Event.

 

38

 

(ii) The Parties acknowledge and agree that (A) the
provisions of this Section 9.11(c) (including the provisions relating
to the determination of the Buyout Price) are a material inducement to their
entering into this Agreement, and (B) the reduced Buyout Price for the
Membership Interest of an Affected Member who becomes a Related Person is a
fair and reasonable estimate of the damages suffered by the Company and the
other Members as a result of such Affected Member becoming a Related Person and
is not a penalty. The Parties agree not to raise any claim, objection or
defense challenging the validity of, or otherwise questioning the
reasonableness of, the determination of the Buyout Price for the Membership
Interest of a Related Person specified in this Section 9.11(c). If such
provisions are held to be unenforceable, the Member who has become a Related
Person agrees to pay to the Purchasing Members all actual costs, losses and
damages incurred or suffered by the Purchasing Members due to such Affected Member’s
having become a Related Person.

 

(d)           Closing. If an option to purchase is exercised under this Section 9.11,
the closing on such purchase shall occur on the 30th day after the
determination of the fair market value under Section 9.11(c) as to
Buyout Events other than a Related Person Buyout Event, and on the 10th Day
after the determination of the fair market value, as to a Related Person Buyout
Event (or, in any event, if later, the fifth Business Day after the receipt of
all applicable regulatory and governmental approvals to the purchase). Unless
otherwise agreed among the Affected Member and the Purchasing Members, the
Buyout Price shall be paid in cash at such closing.

 

(e)           Terminated Member.  
Upon the occurrence of a closing under Section 9.11(d), the
following provisions shall apply to the Affected Member (now a “Terminated
Member”):

 

(i)                                     The Terminated Member shall cease to be a
Member immediately upon the occurrence of the closing.

 

(ii)                                  The Terminated Member shall no longer be
entitled to receive any distributions (including liquidating distributions) or
allocations from the Company except as directed in Section 5.4, and it
shall not be entitled to exercise any voting or consent rights or to receive
any further information (or access to information) from the Company (other than
any required tax information).

 

(iii)                               The Terminated Member must pay to the Company
all amounts owed to the Company by such Terminated Member.

 

39

 

(iv)                              The Terminated Member shall remain obligated
for all liabilities it may have under this Agreement or otherwise with respect
to the Company that accrue prior to the closing.

 

(v)                                 The Membership Interest, including the
Capital Account balance attributable thereto, of the Terminated Member shall be
allocated among the Purchasing Members in the proportion of the total Buyout
Price paid by each Purchasing Member.

 

Section 9.12. Regulatory
and Other Authorizations and Consents. (a) In connection with any Transfer
pursuant to Sections 9.6, 9.9 or 9.10 (the “Designated Transfers”), each
Member involved shall use all commercially reasonable efforts to obtain all
authorizations, consents, orders and approvals of, give all notices to and make
all filings with, all Governmental Authorities and third parties that may be or
become necessary for the Designated Transfers, its execution and delivery of,
and the performance of its obligations under, this Agreement or other
Transaction Documents in connection with any such Designated Transfer and will
cooperate fully with the other Members in promptly seeking to obtain all such
authorizations, consents, orders and approvals, giving such notices and making
such filings, including the provision to such third parties and Governmental
Authorities of such financial statements and other publicly available financial
information with respect to such Member or, if applicable, such Member’s
Guarantor, as the case may be, as such third parties or Governmental
Authorities may reasonably request; provided, however, that no
Member involved shall have any obligation to pay any consideration to obtain
any such consents. In addition, the Members involved shall keep each other
reasonably apprised of their efforts to obtain necessary consents and waivers
from third parties or Governmental Authorities and the responses of such third
parties and Governmental Authorities to requests to provide such consents and
waivers.

 

(b)                                 Without limiting the generality of Section
9.12(a), each Member shall make such filings as may be required under the HSR
Act, the Federal Power Act, as amended, or any state Legal Requirements
relating to the ownership or control of the Projects.

 

(i)                                     To the extent required by the HSR Act, each
Member involved in a Designated Transfer shall (i) file or cause to be filed,
as promptly as practicable but in no event later than the fifteenth Business
Day after the delivery of any Bid or Flip Exercise Notice, as applicable, with
the Federal Trade Commission and the United States Department of Justice, all
reports and other documents required to be filed by such Member under the HSR
Act concerning the Designated Transfer and (ii) promptly comply with or cause
to be complied with any requests by the Federal Trade Commission or the United
States Department of Justice for additional information concerning the

 

40

 

Designated Transfer, in each case so that the
initial thirty day waiting period applicable under the HSR Act shall expire as
soon as practicable. Each Member involved in a Designated Transfer agrees to
request, and to cooperate with the other Members involved in requesting, early
termination of any applicable waiting period under the HSR Act. Each of the
Class A Members involved in a Designated Transfer shall be responsible for the
filing fees incurred by all Members involved in the Designated Transfer in
connection with the initial filings required by the HSR Act in connection with
the Designated Transfers (pro rata in proportion to the percentage of Class B
Membership Interests each such Class A Member will acquire in connection with
the Designated Transfer). Except as expressly provided in the prior sentence
with respect to filing fees, each Member involved in a Designated Transfer will
be responsible for its own fees and expenses, including any fees and expenses
of counsel, accountants or other professional advisors.

 

(ii)                                  To the extent required by the Federal Power
Act, each Member involved in a Designated Transfer shall (i) file or cause
to be filed, as promptly as practicable but in no event later than the
twenty-first Business Day after the delivery of any Bid or Flip Exercise
Notice, an application for approval of the Designated Transfer pursuant to
Section 203(a)(1) of the Federal Power Act, and (ii) as promptly as practicable
but in no event later than the tenth Business Day after the delivery of any Bid
or Flip Exercise Notice, provide to the Company and the Managing Member
information needed for the Company and/or the Managing Member to file an
application for approval of the Designated Transfer under Section 203(a)(2) of
the Federal Power Act.

 

Section 9.13. Admission.
Any transferee of all or part of my Membership Interests pursuant to a Transfer
made in accordance with this Agreement shall be admitted to the Company as a
Member upon its execution of a counterpart to this Agreement.

 

Section 9.14. Security
Interest Consent. If any Class A Member grants a security interest in any
Class A Membership Interest, upon request by such Class A Member, each Class B
Member will execute and deliver to any person holding such security interest
(for itself and/or for the benefit of other lenders) such acknowledgments,
consents or other instruments as such person may reasonably request to confirm
that such grant and any foreclosure or other exercise of remedies in respect of
such Class A Membership constitutes a Permitted Transfer under this Agreement.

ARTICLE X

DISSOLUTION AND WINDING-UP

 

Section 10.1. Events of
Dissolution. The Company shall be dissolved and its affairs shall be wound
up upon the first to occur of any of the following:

 

(a)                                  the written consent of the Members
representing a Super-Majority Vote to dissolve and terminate the Company;

 

(b)                                 the entry of a decree of judicial dissolution
under Section 18-802 of the Act;

 

(c)                                  the occurrence of the LLC Agreement
Termination Date;

 

(d)                                 the disposition of all or substantially all
of the Company’s business and assets;

 

(e)                                  the issuance of a final, nonappealable court
order which makes it unlawful for the business of the Company to be carried on;
or

 

(f)                                    at any time there are no members of the
Company unless the business of the Company is continued in accordance with the
Act.

 

Section 10.2. Distribution
of Assets.

 

(a)                                  The Members hereby appoint the Managing
Member to act as the liquidator upon the occurrence of one of the events in
Section 10.1. Upon the occurrence of such an event, the liquidator will proceed
diligently to wind up the affairs of the Company and make final distributions
as provided herein and in the Act. The liquidator may sell, and will use
commercially reasonable efforts to obtain the best possible price for, any or
all Company property, including to Members. In no event, without the approval
of Members by Super-Majority Vote, will a sale to a Member be for an amount
that is less than fair market value (determined by the Appraisal Method if the
Members (by Super-Majority Vote) are unable to agree on the fair market value).

 

(b)                                 The liquidator will first pay, satisfy or
discharge from Company funds all of the debts, liabilities and obligations of
the Company (including the Working Capital Loans and all expenses incurred in
liquidation) or otherwise make adequate provision for payment and discharge
thereof (including the establishment of a cash escrow fund for contingent,
conditional or unmatured liabilities in such amount and for such term as the
liquidator may reasonably determine) in the order of priority as provided by
law.

 

42

 

(c)                                  All assets of the Company will be treated as
if sold, and the gain treated as realized on those assets will be allocated
first to Members with deficits in their Capital Accounts (in the ratio of the
deficits if more than one Member’s Capital Account is in deficit) in order to
eliminate the deficits.

 

(d)                                 Remaining gain or loss will be allocated next
among the Class B Members in an effort to set the Capital Account of each Class
B Member at a level that would allow it to reach the Target IRR out of the
liquidating distributions if the Target IRR has not already been achieved, and
thereafter in the ratio in Section 5.1(c).

 

(e)                                  After the allocations in clauses (c) and (d)
have been made, then cash and property will be distributed pro rata to the
Members in the amount of the positive balances in their Capital Accounts by the
end of the taxable year during which the liquidation occurs (or, if later,
within 90 days after the date of such liquidation).

 

(f)                                    The distribution of cash and property to a
Member in accordance with the provisions of this Section 10.2 constitutes a
complete return to the Member of its Capital Contributions and a complete
distribution to the Member on its Membership Interests in the Company of all
the Company’s property and constitutes a compromise to which all Members have
consented within the meaning of Section 18-502(b) of the Act. If the assets of
the Company remaining after the payment or discharge of the debts and liabilities
of the Company are insufficient to return Capital Contributions of each Member,
such Member shall have no recourse against the Company or any other Member.

 

Section 10.3. In-Kind
Distributions. There shall be no distribution of assets of the Company in
kind without the prior Super-Majority Vote of the Members.

 

Section 10.4. Certificate
of Cancellation.

 

(a)                                  When all debts, liabilities and obligations
have been paid and discharged or adequate provisions have been made therefor
and all of the remaining property and assets have been distributed to the
Members, a certificate of cancellation shall be executed and filed by the
liquidator with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware, which
certificate shall set forth the information required by Section 18-203 of the
Act.

 

(b)                                 Upon the filing of the certificate of
cancellation, the existence of the Company shall cease.

 

(c)                                  All costs and expenses in fulfilling the
obligations under this Section 10.4 shall be borne by the Company.

ARTICLE XI

GENERAL INDEMNITY

 

Section 11.1. Indemnification
by the Class A Member.

 

(a)                                  Beginning on the Effective Date (or, with
respect to any additional Class A Member which becomes a Class A Member after
the Effective Date, on the first date on which such Person becomes a Member
hereunder) and continuing thereafter, the Class A Member (and if there shall be
more than one Class A Member, each Class A Member jointly and severally) shall
Indemnify the Company, each Class B Member
and the Class B Member’s officers, directors, shareholders, employees, agents,
successors, permitted assigns, and their respective Affiliates (the “Indemnified
Persons”), on an after-tax basis determined in accordance with Section 11.5,
from and against any and all Claims which may be suffered by any Indemnified
Person relating to or arising out of any of the following:

 

(i)                                     the inaccuracy, breach or failure of any
representation or warranty or covenant or agreement made by any Class A Member
(whether in its capacity as a Class A Member, Tax Matters Member or Managing
Member), the Project Company, the Company, or any Affiliate of any Class A
Member or the Company under this Agreement or the Purchase Agreement (and
without regard to any qualification of “material,” “material adverse effect,”
Material Adverse Effect, or any similar qualification with respect to any
representation or warranty); provided, however, that no Claim for
indemnification may be made pursuant to this Section 11.1(a)(i) until the aggregate
dollar amount of claims for which indemnification is (or previously has been)
sought exceeds *****; provided, further, however, that,
once such threshold dollar amount of Claims has been reached, the Class B
Members shall have the right to be indemnified for all such Claims, including
amounts that were not previously paid because such threshold amount had not
been reached;

 

(ii)                                  the failure by any Class A Member, the
Project Company, the Company or any Affiliate of any Class A Member or the
Company while being the Manager to manage the Project in accordance with the
Prudent Operator Standard;

 

(iii)                               the failure by any Class A Member, the
Project Company, the Company or any Affiliate of any Class A Member or the
Company while being the Operator to operate the Project in accordance with the
Prudent Operator Standard;

 

(iv)                              Environmental Losses caused by the Managing
Member or its Affiliate, whether occurring prior to or after the Effective
Date; and

 

44

 

(v)                                 consequential damages resulting from any
curtailment or shutdown of any wind turbine related to the failure of the
Project Company to obtain any consent, non-disturbance agreement, easement or
other agreement necessary for the operation of the Project which has not been
obtained as of the Effective Date.

 

(b)                                 To the fullest extent permitted by Applicable
Law, reasonable expenses to be incurred by an Indemnified Person under this
Section 11.1 shall, from time to time, be advanced by or on behalf of the Class
A Member(s) prior to the final disposition of any matter upon receipt by the
Class A Member(s) of an undertaking by or on behalf of such Indemnified Person
to repay such amount, together with interest from the date of the advance at
the Reference Rate, if it shall be determined that the Indemnified Person is
not entitled to be indemnified under this Agreement.

 

(c)                                  For the avoidance of doubt, any insurance
proceeds actually received by an Indemnified Person in respect of any Claim
shall be credited against the remaining amounts owed to such Indemnified Person
by the Class A Member in connection with such Claim or, in the event that all
such amounts owed by the Class A Member to such Indemnified Person pursuant to
this Section 11.1 have been paid in full, shall be paid over to the Class A
Member.

 

Section 11.2. Indemnification
of Class A Members by the Company. Each Class A Member and its officers,
directors, shareholders, Affiliates, employees and agents (each, a “Member
Party”) shall be exculpated from liability for and defended, indemnified
and held harmless by the Company from all Claims arising out of the performance
by such Member Party of its obligations under this Agreement so long as such
Member Party acted in good faith and in a manner reasonably believed by it to
be in the best interest of or not opposed to the interest of the Company; provided,
however, that no Member Party shall be entitled to the payment of an
Indemnity Claim under this Article 11 to the extent such Claim is attributable
to willful misconduct, fraud or gross negligence or breach of any of its
representations, warranties or covenants or agreements (in each case, if any)
under this Agreement or the Purchase Agreement.

 

Section 11.3. Procedures
for Indemnity Obligation

 

(a)                                  All Indemnity Claims by the Indemnified
Persons under Section 11.1 shall be asserted and resolved in accordance with
this Section 11.3.

 

(b)                                 If an Indemnified Person learns of an
Indemnity Claim asserted against such Indemnified Person by a Third Person for
which such Indemnified Person may seek indemnification under Section 11.1, such
Indemnified Person shall promptly notify the Class A Member(s) thereof,
specifying the nature of and specific basis for such Indemnity Claim and the
actual or estimated amount thereof to the extent then feasible

 

45

 

(which estimate shall not be conclusive of
the final amount of such Indemnity Claim) (the “Claim Notice”); provided,
however, that the failure to provide such notice promptly shall not
limit or reduce such Indemnified Person’s right to indemnification under
Section 11.1 except to the extent that such failure to provide such notice
promptly shall prevent or shall have prevented the Class B Member(s) from
properly or effectively defending the Indemnity Claim or from recovering
reimbursement or other damages to which the Class B Member(s) would be
entitled.

 

(c)                                  The Class A Member (or each Class A Member if
there shall be more than one Class A Member) shall notify the Members within
the Notice Period whether or not it disputes its obligation to indemnify such
Indemnified Person against such Indemnity Claim; provided, however, that the
Indemnified Persons are hereby authorized prior to and during such Notice
Period to file any motion, answer or other pleading that may be necessary or
appropriate to protect their respective interests or those of the Class A
Member(s) and a copy of such pleading shall be promptly delivered to the Class
A Member(s).

 

(d)                                 If any Class A Member notifies such
Indemnified Person within such Notice Period that it does not dispute its
obligation to Indemnify such Indemnified Person against such Indemnity Claim,
then, except as hereinafter provided, the Class A Member(s) shall have the
right, but not the obligation, to defend by all appropriate proceedings, and
with counsel of its own choosing that is reasonably acceptable to such
Indemnified Person, such right being exercisable only in the same notice in
which it notifies such Indemnified Person that it does not dispute its
obligation to Indemnify it against the Indemnity Claim.

 

(e)                                  If a Class A Member elects to defend against
such Indemnity Claim, it shall promptly settle such Indemnity Claim or
diligently prosecute it to a final conclusion. If such Indemnified Person
desires to participate in, but not control, any such defense or settlement, it
may do so at its sole cost and expense.

 

(f)                                    If a Class A Member disputes its liability
with respect to such Indemnity Claim or fails to defend against such Indemnity
Claim, whether by not giving timely notice as provided above or otherwise, such
Indemnified Person shall have the right but not the obligation to defend
against such Indemnity Claim.

 

(g)                                 Unless a Class A Member has accepted
liability for a Indemnity Claim in writing, the Class A Member shall not settle
any such Indemnity Claim of such Indemnified Person without the prior written
consent of such Indemnified Person. The Indemnified Persons shall not settle
any Indemnity Claim without the prior written consent of the Class A Member
unless the Class A Member has refused to accept liability

 

46

 

for such Indemnity Claim and failed to defend
such Indemnified Person against such Indemnity Claim pursuant to the terms of
this Agreement.

 

(h)                                 If requested by the Class A Member(s), the
Indemnified Persons agree to cooperate with the Class A Member(s), its (or
their respective) insurers and their respective counsel in contesting any Third
Person Claims that the Class B Member elects to contest; provided, however,
that the Class A Member (i) has furnished the Indemnified Persons with a
written opinion of the Class A Member’s outside counsel to the effect that a
reasonable basis exists to contest such Indemnity Claim and (ii) has agreed to
advance to the Indemnified Persons all out-of-pocket costs and expenses
(including reasonable attorneys’ fees) that the Indemnified Persons may incur
in so cooperating in the contest of such Indemnity Claim.

 

(i)                                     If an Indemnified Person shall have an
Indemnity Claim against the Class A Member(s) hereunder which does not involve
an Indemnity Claim or demand being asserted against or sought to be collected
from such Indemnified Person by a Third Person, such Indemnified Person shall
promptly send a Claim Notice with respect to such Claim to the Class A
Member(s). If a Class A Member does not notify the Indemnified Person within
the Notice Period that it disputes such Indemnity Claim, the amount of such
Indemnity Claim shall be conclusively deemed a liability of the Class A
Member(s) hereunder.

 

Section 11.4. Member
Indemnification Procedures.

 

(a)                                  All Claims for indemnification of the Member
Parties under Section 11.2 shall be asserted and resolved in accordance with
this Section 11.4.

 

(b)                                 If a Member Party learns of an actual Claim
for which such Member Party may seek indemnification under Section 11.2, such
Member Party shall promptly notify the Managing Member thereof, by sending a
Claim Notice; provided, however, that the failure to provide such
notice promptly shall not limit or reduce such Member Party’s right to
indemnification under Section 11.2, except to the extent that such failure to
provide such notice promptly shall prevent or shall have prevented the Company
from properly or effectively defending the Claim or from recovering
reimbursement or other damages to which the Company would be entitled.

 

(c)                                  The Managing Member, on behalf of the
Company, shall notify all Member Parties within the Notice Period whether or
not it disputes its obligation to Indemnify such Indemnified Person against
such Claim; provided, however, that the Indemnified Persons are
hereby authorized prior to and during such Notice Period to file any motion,
answer or other pleading that may be necessary or appropriate to protect

 

47

 

their respective interests or those of the
Company and the other Members and a copy of such pleading shall be promptly
delivered to the other Members.

 

(d)                                 If the Managing Member, on behalf of the
Company, notifies such Indemnified Person within such Notice Period that it
does not dispute its obligation to Indemnify such Indemnified Person against
such Claim, then, except as hereinafter provided, the Managing Member, on
behalf of the Company, shall have the right, but not the obligation, to defend
by all appropriate proceedings, and with counsel chosen by the Managing Member,
such right being exercisable only in the same notice in which it notifies such
Indemnified Person that it does not dispute its obligation to Indemnify it
against the Claim. Such Indemnified Person shall have the right to participate
in such defense, using its own counsel at the Company’s expense, to the extent
such Claim involves any risk of criminal liability or any conflict of interest
between the Company and such Indemnified Person.

 

(e)                                  If the Company, pursuant to and in accordance
with Section 11.4(g), elects to defend the Claim of such Member Party, it shall
promptly settle such Claim or diligently prosecute it to a final conclusion. If
the Member Parties desire to participate in, but not control, any such defense
or settlement, they may do so at their sole cost and expense.

 

(f)                                    If requested by the Managing Member, on
behalf of the Company, the Indemnified Persons agree to cooperate with the
Managing Member, on behalf of the Company, its insurers and its counsel in
contesting any Third Person Claims that the Company elects to contest; provided,
however, that the Managing Member (i) has furnished the Indemnified
Persons with a written opinion of the Company’s outside counsel, which such
counsel shall be subject to the approval of a Super-Majority Vote of the
Members, to the effect that a reasonable basis exists to contest such Claim and
(ii) has agreed to advance to the Indemnified Persons all out-of-pocket costs
and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) that the Indemnified
Persons may incur in so cooperating in the contest of such Claim.

 

(g)                                 If the Company disputes its liability with
respect to such Claim or fails to defend against such Claim, whether by not
giving notice as provided above or otherwise, the Member Party shall have the
right but not the obligation to defend against such Claim. Unless the Company
has accepted liability for a Claim in writing, the Company shall not settle any
such Claim without the prior written consent of the Member Party. The Member
Parties shall not settle any Claim without the prior written consent of the
Company unless the Company has refused to accept liability for such Claim and
failed to defend the Member Party against such Claim pursuant to the terms of
this Agreement.

 

48

 

(h)                                 If a Member Party shall have an Indemnity
Claim against the Company under Section 11.2 which does not involve a Claim or
demand being asserted against or sought to be collected from such Member Party
by a Third Person, such Member Party shall promptly send a Claim Notice with
respect to such Claim to the Managing Member. If the Managing Member on behalf
of the Company, does not notify such Member Party within the Notice Period that
it disputes such Indemnity Claim, the amount of such Indemnity Claim shall be
conclusively deemed a liability of the Company hereunder.

 

Section 11.5. Gross-Up of
Indemnity. At the time that the Class A Member makes any payment in
connection with an Indemnity Claim under Section 13.1 for any amount due
thereunder (the “Indemnity Payment Amount”), the Class A Member shall
also pay together with such payment an additional amount (the “Gross-Up
Amount”) that, when added to such payment, will result in the recipients
(including in the case of any Class B Member, the affiliated group with which
such Class B Member files a single consolidated federal income tax return)
receiving an amount equal to such Indemnity Payment Amount, after taking into
account (i) the federal income taxes that are payable by the recipients
(including the affiliated groups with which such Class B Member files a single
consolidated federal income tax return) with respect to the receipt of such
payment, using an assumed rate equal to the highest marginal federal income tax
rate applicable to corporations generally (currently 35%), (ii) applicable
state and local income taxes payable by the recipients (including the
affiliated groups with which such Class B Member files a single consolidated
federal income tax return) with respect to the receipt of such payment,
determined using an assumed blended state and local tax rate of 2.5%, and
assuming that each recipient recognizes the same amount of taxable income for
state and local income tax purposes as it recognizes for federal income tax
purposes in respect of such payment, (iii) the federal income tax savings from
deductions (including losses) allowable to the recipients (including the
affiliated group with which such Class A Member files a single consolidated
federal income tax return) as a result of such Indemnity Payment Amount, using
an assumed rate equal to the highest marginal federal income tax rate applicable
to corporations generally (currently 35%), and (iv) state and local income tax
savings from deductions (including losses) allowable to the recipients
(including the affiliated group with which such Class B Member files a single
consolidated federal income tax return) with respect to the Indemnity Payment
Amount, determined using an assumed blended state and local tax rate of 2.5%,
and assuming that each recipient is allowed taxable deductions for state and
local income tax purposes in the same amount as it is allowed for federal
income tax purposes in respect of such Indemnity Payment Amount. Any Indemnity
Payment shall be reduced by the present value (as determined on the basis of a
discount rate equal to the Target IRR and the same assumptions about taxability
and tax rates) of any income tax benefit to be realized by the Indemnified
Person or its Affiliates by reason of the facts and circumstances giving rise
to such indemnification.

MISCELLANEOUS

 

Section 12.1.  
Notices.   Unless otherwise provided herein, any offer,
acceptance, election, approval, consent, certification, request, waiver, notice
or other communication required or permitted to be given hereunder (collectively
referred to as a “Notice”), shall be in writing and delivered (a) in
person, (b) by registered or certified mail with postage prepaid and
return receipt requested, (c) by recognized overnight courier service with
charges prepaid or (d) by facsimile or other electronic transmission,
directed to the intended recipient at the address of such Member on Schedule
4.2(d) or at such other address as any Member hereafter may designate to
the others in accordance with a Notice under this Section 12.1. A Notice or
other communication will be deemed delivered on the earliest to occur of (i) its
actual receipt when delivered in person, (ii) the fifth Business Day
following its deposit in registered or certified mail, with postage prepaid,
and return receipt requested, (iii) the second Business Day following its
deposit with a recognized overnight courier service or (iv) the date of
receipt of a facsimile or other electronic transmission or, if such date of
receipt is not a Business Day, the next Business Day following such date of
receipt, provided the sender can and does provide evidence of successful
transmission. Any Notice or other communication received on a day that is not a
Business Day or later than 5:00 p.m. on a Business Day shall be deemed to
be received on the next Business Day.

 

Section 12.2.  
Amendment.   Except for an amendment of Schedule 4.2(d) in
accordance with the terms of this Agreement, and a Transfer of Membership
Interests and the admission of a new Member in accordance with the terms of
this Agreement, this Agreement may be changed, modified or amended only by an
instrument in writing duly executed by Members representing a Super-Majority
Vote.

 

Section 12.3.  
Partition.   Each of the Members hereby irrevocably waives, to
the extent it may lawfully do so, any right that such Member may have to
maintain any action for partition with respect to the Company property.

 

Section 12.4.  
Waivers and Modifications.   Any waiver or consent, express,
implied or deemed, to or of any breach or default by any Person in the
performance by that Person of its obligations with respect to the Company or
any action inconsistent with this Agreement is not a consent or waiver to or of
any other breach or default in the performance by that Person of the same or
any other obligations of that Person with respect to the Company or any other
such action. Failure on the part of a Person to insist in any one or more
instances upon strict performance of any provisions of this Agreement, to take
advantage of any of its rights hereunder, or to declare any Person in default
with respect to the Company, irrespective of how long that failure continues,
does not constitute a waiver by that Person of its rights with respect to that
Person or its rights

 

50

 

with respect to that
default until the applicable statute of limitations period has lapsed. All
waivers and consents hereunder shall be in writing duly executed by Members
representing a Super-Majority Vote of the Members affected by such waiver or
consent and shall be delivered to the other Members in the manner set forth in Section 12.1.

 

Section 12.5.   Severability.
  Except as otherwise provided in the succeeding sentence, every term
and provision of this Agreement is intended to be severable, and if any term or
provision of this Agreement is illegal or invalid for any reason whatsoever,
such illegality or invalidity shall not affect the legality or validity of the
remainder of this Agreement. The preceding sentence shall be of no force or
effect if the consequence of enforcing the remainder of this Agreement without
such illegal or invalid terms or provision would be to cause any Party to lose
the benefit of its economic bargain.

 

Section 12.6.  
Successors; No Third-Party Beneficiaries.   This Agreement is
binding on and inures to the benefit of the Members and their respective heirs,
legal representatives, successors and permitted assigns. Nothing in this
Agreement shall provide any benefit to any third party or entitle any third
party to any claim, cause of action, remedy or right of any kind, it being the
intent of the Members that this Agreement shall not be construed as a
third-party beneficiary contract. To the full extent permitted by law, no
creditor or other third party having dealings with the Company shall have the
right to pursue any other right or remedy hereunder or at law or in equity, it
being understood and agreed that the provisions of this Agreement shall be
solely for the benefit of, and may be enforced solely by, the parties hereto
and their respective successors and permitted assigns. None of the rights of
the Members herein set forth to make Capital Contributions or loans to the
Company shall be deemed an asset of the Company for any purpose by any creditor
or other third party, nor may such rights or obligations be sold, transferred
or assigned by the Company or pledged or encumbered by the Company to secure
any debt or other obligation of the Company or of any of the Members.

 

Section 12.7.  
Entire Agreement.   This Agreement, including the Schedules
attached hereto or incorporated herein by reference, constitutes the entire
agreement of the Members with respect to the matters covered herein. This
Agreement supersedes all prior agreements and oral understandings among the
parties hereto with respect to such matters, including the Original Operating
Agreement.

 

Section 12.8.  
Governing Law.   This Agreement shall be governed by and
construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware, excluding any
conflict of laws rule or principle that might refer the governance or
construction of this Agreement to the law of another jurisdiction.

 

51

 

Section 12.9.  
Further Assurances. In connection with this Agreement and the
transactions contemplated hereby, each Member shall execute and deliver any
additional documents and instruments and perform any additional acts that may
be reasonably required or useful to carry out the intent and purpose of this
Agreement and as are not inconsistent with the terms hereof.

 

Section 12.10.  
Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of
counterparts, each of which shall be an original but all of which together will
constitute one instrument, binding upon all parties hereto, notwithstanding
that all of such parties may not have executed the same counterpart.

 

Section 12.11.  
Dispute Resolution.

 

(a)           Except as provided in Section 12.11(b),
in the event a dispute, controversy or claim arises hereunder, the aggrieved
party will promptly provide written notification of the dispute to the other
party within ten (10) days after such dispute arises. A meeting will be
held promptly between the parties, attended by representatives of the parties
with decision-making authority regarding the dispute, to attempt in good faith
to negotiate a resolution of the dispute. If the parties are not successful in
resolving a dispute within 21 days, the parties will thereafter be entitled to
pursue all such remedies as may be available to them.

 

(b)           If any Class B Member disputes
any item or procedure or calculation of, or which affects, the Flip Date
contained in any notice or report delivered by the Manager to such Class B
Member, such Class B Member shall (i) notify the Manager and other
Members not more than five Business Days after such Class B Member has
received the disputed notice or report and (ii) pay any amount that is due
from and payable by such Class B Member and not in dispute. In such event,
the Members and the Manager shall consider the issues raised or in dispute and
discuss such issues with each other and attempt to reach a mutually
satisfactory agreement. If notice of dispute is not given by any Class B
Member within such period, the notice or report and each disputed item
contained therein will be final and binding on the Members. If the dispute as
to the Manager’s calculations is not promptly resolved within ten (10) Business
Days of such notification of the dispute, the Class B Members and the
Manager shall each promptly present their interpretations to an Independent
Accounting Firm, and shall instruct the Independent Accounting Firm to
determine the correct amount of the calculations in dispute (if applicable, in
accordance with the methodology in Section 6.5) and to resolve the dispute
promptly, but in no event more than twenty Business Days after having the
dispute submitted to it. The Independent Accounting Firm will make a
determination as to each of the items in dispute, which must be (i) in
writing, (ii) furnished to each Member and the Manager and (iii) made
in accordance with this Agreement, and which determination, absent manifest
error, will be conclusive and binding on all Members.

 

52

 

Each Member shall use reasonable
efforts to cause the Independent Accounting Firm to render its decision as soon
as reasonably practicable, including by promptly complying with all reasonable
requests by the Independent Accounting Firm for information, books, records and
similar items. In the event the Independent Accounting Firm determines that any
of the calculations in dispute was incorrect in any material respect, the fees
and expenses of the Independent Accounting Firm shall be borne by Class A
Members (pro rata in proportion to their Capital Interests). In all other cases
the fees and expenses of the Independent Accounting Firm shall be borne by the Class B
Member disputing any of the calculations (if more than one, pro rata in
proportion to their Capital Interests).

 

Section 12.12. Confidentiality.

 

(a)           Except to the extent necessary for
the exercise of its rights and remedies and the performance of its obligations
under this Agreement, no Member will itself use or intentionally disclose (and
will not permit the use or disclosure by any of its Affiliates, or any of the
officers, directors or employees of it or its Affiliates or any of its
Representatives, directly or indirectly, any of the Material Contracts, the
Company LLC Agreement or this Agreement or information furnished thereunder or
hereunder, and will use all reasonable efforts to have all such information
kept confidential (consistent with its own practices); provided, that (i) any
such Member and its Affiliates and Representatives may use, retain and disclose
any such information to any Governmental Authority or as otherwise required by
Applicable Law, (ii) any such Member and its Affiliates and
Representatives may use, retain and disclose any such information that has been
publicly disclosed (other than by such party or any Affiliates and
Representatives thereof in breach of this Section 12.12) or has rightfully
come into the possession of such Member or any Affiliate or Representative
thereof other than from another Member or a Person acting on such other Member’s
behalf and under circumstances not involving, to the best of such Member’s
knowledge, any breach or any confidentiality obligation, (iii) to the
extent that any such Member or any Affiliate or Representative thereof may have
received a subpoena or other written demand under color of legal right for such
information, such Member or such Affiliate or Representative may disclose such
information, but such Member shall first, unless prohibited by Applicable Law,
as soon as practicable upon receipt of such demand, furnish a copy thereof to
the other Members and, if practicable so long as such Member shall not be in
violation of such subpoena or demand or likely become liable to any penalty or
sanctions thereunder unless based upon counsel’s opinion, such Member is advised
it must disclose such information, afford the other Members reasonable
opportunity, at any other Member’s cost and expense, to obtain a protective
order or other reasonably satisfactory assurance of confidential treatment for
the information required to be disclosed, shall cooperate with any reasonable
efforts of the other Members to obtain a protective order or other similar
relief, shall keep the other Members informed of any developments with respect
to the compulsion or request for information, and shall disclose only so much
of the information

 

53

 

as, in the opinion of its
legal counsel, is legally required, (iv) disclosures to lenders, potential
lenders or other Persons providing financing to the Company or any Member and
potential purchasers of equity interests in the Company are permitted, if such
Persons have agreed to abide by terms substantially similar to the obligations
of the Members under this Section 12.12, (v) any such Member and its
advisors may disclose any such information, and make such filings, as may be
required by this Agreement or the Material Contracts, (vi) any such Member
which is an insurance company or an Affiliate thereof may disclose such
information to the National Association of Insurance Commissioners and any
rating agency requiring access to its investment portfolio and (vii) each
of JPMCC and JPM Wind may disclose any such information to any prospective
third party purchaser of an ownership interest in JPM Wind Portfolio in
connection with a JPM Portfolio Transfer and a sale of ownership interests in
JPM Wind Portfolio to such third party to the extent that such third party
executes a confidentiality agreement with JPM Wind or JPMCC containing
substantially the same terms and conditions as are set forth in this Section 12.12.
Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, Members may disclose
information to (A) their Affiliates and Representatives in accordance with
this Agreement, so long as such Persons agree to comply with the provisions of
this Section 12.12.

 

(b)           A terminated Member may, subject to
the other provisions of this Section 12.12, retain and use information
regarding the transactions contemplated in the Transaction Documents and this
Agreement for the limited purpose of preparing such Terminated Member’s tax
returns and defending audits, investigations and proceedings relating thereto
and hereto.

 

(c)           The Members agree that no adequate
remedy at law exists for a breach or threatened breach of any of the provisions
of this Section 12.12, the continuation of which unremedied will cause the
Company and the other Members to suffer irreparable harm. Accordingly, the
Members agree that the Company and the other Members shall be entitled, in
addition to other remedies that may be available to them, to immediate
injunctive relief from any breach of any of the provisions of this Section 12.12
and to specific performance of their rights hereunder, as well as to any other
remedies available at law or in equity.

 

(d)           The obligations of the Members under
this Section 12.12 shall terminate on the third anniversary of the LLC
Agreement Termination Date.

 

Section 12.13. Joint
Efforts.    To
the full extent permitted by law, neither this Agreement nor any ambiguity or
uncertainty herein will be construed against any of the parties hereto, whether
under any rule of construction or otherwise. On the contrary, this
Agreement has been prepared by the joint efforts of the respective attorneys
for, and has been reviewed by, each of the parties hereto.

 

54

 

Section 12.14. Specific
Performance.     The Members agree that
irreparable damage will result if this Agreement is not performed in accordance
with its terms, and the Members agree that any damages available at law for a
breach of this Agreement would not be an adequate remedy. Therefore, to the
fullest extent permitted by law, the provisions hereof and the obligations of
the Members hereunder shall be enforceable in a court of equity, or other
tribunal with jurisdiction, by a decree of specific performance, and
appropriate injunctive relief may be applied for and granted in connection
therewith. Such remedies and all other remedies provided for in this Agreement
shall, however, be cumulative and not exclusive and shall be in addition to any
other remedies that a Member may have under this Agreement, at law or in
equity.

 

Section 12.15. Survival.
     All indemnities and reimbursement obligations
made pursuant to this Agreement shall survive dissolution and liquidation of
the Company until expiration of the longest applicable statute of limitations
(including extensions and waivers) with respect to the matter for which a
Person would be entitled to be indemnified or reimbursed, as the case may be.

 

Section 12.16. Working
Capital Loans; Letter of Credit Reimbursement Obligations.      UPC,
UPC Hawaii, or any Affiliate of UPC may make (but will have no obligation to
make), or any third party lender may make, loans to the Company or the Project
Company, when and as needed (as determined by the Managing Member and without
any requirement for consent or other action by any Class B Member), sufficient to cover working
capital, maintenance and capital expenditure needs of the Company or the Project
Company in an aggregate principal amount outstanding at any time not to exceed
$***** (provided that such sum may be increased by any additional sum that the
Managing Member in good faith determines is required to be obtained in order to
meet an emergency affecting the Company or the Project Company) for the Company
and the Project Company, combined (any such loan, a “Working Capital Loan”).
All Working Capital Loans shall be unsecured and repaid out of available cash
flow of the Company (if the Company is the borrower) or the Project Company (if
the Project Company is the borrower) before any distributions to members of
such entity. Any Working Capital Loans made by UPC, UPC Hawaii or an Affiliate
of UPC shall (a) be evidenced by a note substantially in form of Exhibit D
hereto and (b) otherwise be on terms equivalent in all material respects
to loans that would be available from a third party lender that is not an
Affiliate of UPC, and (c) constitute a loan to the Company and shall not
be deemed a Capital Contribution.

 

Section 12.17. Effective
Date.      This Agreement shall have no force or
effect unless and until the funding of the transactions contemplated by the
Purchase Agreement, occurs, at which time this Agreement shall automatically
and without any further action become effective simultaneously with such
Closing.

 

55

 

Section 12.18. Recourse
Only to Member.      The sole recourse of the
Company for performance of the obligations of any Member hereunder shall be
against such Member and its assets and not against any assets or property of
any present or future stockholder, partner, member, officer, employee, servant,
executive, director, agent, authorized representative or Affiliate of such
Member.

Date) or (B) is approved in writing by UPC (such approval not to be
unreasonably withheld or delayed). For this purpose, “competitor” means any

List (an “Active Person”), except for an Affiliate of an Active Person
(other than an Active Person identified on the Prohibited Transferees List
where such Affiliate of an Active Person is

entity that is regularly involved in making passive investments in such

Project. For the avoidance of doubt, an “Approved Transferee” must satisfy all
conditions in clauses (i) through (v).

  [Date]

  

 

FOR VALUE RECEIVED, [               ], a Delaware limited liability company
(the “Borrower”),  hereby
promises to pay to the order of UPC Hawaii Wind Partners, LLC, a Delaware
limited liability company (the “Lender”), the principal sum of [            ]
dollars $[             ],
or so much thereof as may be advanced by or owing to the Lender (each such
amount, a “Borrowing”) on a
date that is 364 days after the date of this Note (the “Maturity Date”), unless sooner paid as provided
herein.

 

The Borrower also promises
to pay interest on the unpaid principal amounts from time to time outstanding
hereunder, from the date of each Borrowing until all Borrowings hereunder have
been paid in full. Each Borrowing shall bear interest at a rate per annum equal
to the LIBOR (as defined below) rate in effect for such Borrowing plus 2.0 percent,
calculated on the basis of a 360-day year, such interest to be payable monthly
on the last business day of each month (each, a “Payment Date”),  commencing, with respect to each
Borrowing, on the last business day of the calendar month immediately following
the date of such Borrowing. In addition, all accrued and unpaid interest
thereon will be due and payable upon the day that all principal is due and
payable (whether on the Maturity Date, by acceleration or otherwise). For
purposes of this Note, “LIBOR”  means the
rate

 

Exhibit D - 1

 

per annum quoted on the British Bankers’
Association Website “Historic Libor Rates” page, for 1 month Libor as of 10
London Business Days before the date of each Borrowing as the rate per annum
for deposits in U.S. dollars, or if no rate appears on British Bankers’
Association Website, the one-month London Interbank Offered Rate as published
in the Wall Street Journal two London Business Days prior to the date of each Borrowing.

 

Payment of both principal
and interest on this Note shall be made by wire transfer to the Lender at such
bank instructions provided to the Borrower in lawful money of the United States
of America in immediately available funds.

 

To request a Borrowing,
Borrower shall notify Lender of such request 10 business days before the date
of the proposed Borrowing.

 

The Borrower shall have the
right to prepay any amount borrowed under this Note in whole or in part at any
time, together with interest on the amount prepaid to the date of prepayment,
without penalty or premium. Amounts borrowed under this note may be re-borrowed
subject to the terms hereof.

 

The Lender shall, and is
hereby irrevocably authorized by the Borrower to, endorse on Schedule A which forms
a part of this Note (and on separate continuations of such Schedule), or
otherwise to record on the Lender’s internal records, appropriate notations
evidencing the amount of each Borrowing and each payment of principal or
interest on any such Borrowing which is received by the Lender; provided,
that failure by the Lender to make any such notations or any error therein
shall not affect any of the Borrower’s obligations in respect of this Note.

 

Upon the occurrence of any
of the following events, this Note shall become immediately due and payable in
full, together with interest accrued thereon:

 

(i)            the Borrower shall fail to make any payment hereunder
when due and payable;

 

(ii)           the Borrower shall become insolvent, or generally fail to
pay, or admit in writing its inability to pay, its debts as they become due, or
shall voluntarily commence any proceeding or file any petition under any
bankruptcy, insolvency or similar federal, state or foreign law or seeking
dissolution, liquidation or reorganization or the appointment of a receiver,
trustee, custodian or liquidator for it or a substantial portion of its
property, assets or business or to effect a plan or other arrangement with its
creditors, or shall file any answer admitting the jurisdiction of the court and
the material allegations of an involuntary petition filed against it in any
bankruptcy, insolvency or similar proceeding, or shall be adjudicated bankrupt,
or shall make a general assignment for the

 

Exhibit D - 2

 

benefit of creditors, or shall consent to, or
acquiesce in the appointment of, a receiver, trustee, custodian or liquidator
for a substantial portion of its property, assets or business, or shall by any
act or failure to act indicate its consent to or approval of any of the
foregoing, or if any corporate action is taken by the Borrower for the purpose
of effecting any of the foregoing; or

 

(iii)          involuntary
proceedings or an involuntary petition shall be commenced or filed against the
Borrower under any bankruptcy, insolvency or similar federal, state or foreign
law or seeking the dissolution, liquidation or reorganization of it or the
appointment of a receiver, trustee, custodian or liquidator for it or of a
substantial part of its property, assets or business, and such proceedings or
petition shall not be dismissed within sixty (60) days; or any writ, judgment,
tax lien, warrant of attachment, execution or similar process shall be issued
or levied against a substantial part of its property, assets or business, and
such writ, judgment, lien, warrant of attachment, execution or similar process
shall not be released, vacated or fully bonded, within sixty (60) days after
commencement, filing or levy, as the case may be, or any order for relief shall
be entered in any such proceeding; or any winding-up, dissolution, liquidation
or reorganization of the Borrower.

 

The Borrower waives any and
all right to assert any defense (except for the Borrower’s performance under
the Note), set-off, counterclaim or crossclaim of any nature whatsoever with
respect to this Note or the obligations of the Borrower hereunder in any action
or proceeding brought by the Lender to collect this Note, or any portion
hereof. The Borrower waives presentment, demand, notice, protest and all other
demands and notices in connection with the delivery, acceptance, performance,
default or enforcement of this Note.

 

The Borrower promises to pay
all costs and expenses of the Lender (including, without limitation, reasonable
attorneys’ fees and disbursements) incurred in connection with (i) the
enforcement of, or collection of any amounts due under, this Note or (ii) any
waiver, extension, amendment or modification of this Note.

 

This Note shall be binding
upon, and shall inure to the benefit of, the Borrower and the Lender and their
respective successors and assigns; provided, however, that the
Borrower shall not assign its rights or obligations hereunder without the prior
written consent of the Lender. This Note may be freely assigned by the Lender
without the consent of the Borrower.

 

This Note may only be modified, amended, or terminated (other than by
payment in full) by an agreement in writing signed by the Borrower and the
Lender. No waiver of any term, covenant or provision of this Note shall be
effective unless given in writing by the Lender.

 

Exhibit D - 3

 

ALL LEGAL ACTIONS OR PROCEEDINGS BROUGHT AGAINST THE BORROWER WITH
RESPECT TO THIS NOTE MAY BE BROUGHT IN ANY STATE OR FEDERAL COURT OF COMPETENT
JURISDICTION IN THE STATE OF NEW YORK, AND BY EXECUTION AND DELIVERY OF THIS
NOTE THE BORROWER ACCEPTS FOR ITSELF AND IN CONNECTION WITH ITS PROPERTIES, THE
JURISDICTION OF THE AFORESAID COURTS. THE BORROWER HEREBY EXPRESSLY AND
IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ANY CLAIM OR DEFENSE IN ANY SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING BASED
ON ANY ALLEGED LACK OF PERSONAL JURISDICTION, IMPROPER VENUE OR FORUM
NON  CONVENIENS OR ANY SIMILAR BASIS. THE BORROWER FURTHER IRREVOCABLY CONSENTS TO THE
SERVICE OF ANY COMPLAINT, SUMMONS, NOTICE OR OTHER PROCESS RELATING TO ANY
LEGAL ACTION OR PROCEEDING BY DELIVERY THEREOF TO IT BY HAND OR BY MAIL TO THE
ADDRESS OF THE BORROWER SET FORTH BELOW. NOTHING HEREIN SHALL AFFECT THE RIGHT
OF A HOLDER TO BRING PROCEEDINGS AGAINST THE BORROWER IN THE COURTS OF ANY
OTHER JURISDICTION OR TO SERVE PROCESS IN ANY MANNER PERMITTED BY LAW.

 

THIS NOTE SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE
LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, WITHOUT REGARD TO PRINCIPLES OF CONFLICTS OF
LAW.

 

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Borrower has executed this Note as of the day
