Except as otherwise provided herein, the Managing Member shall not 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.

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 shall not be obligated personally for any of such debts, obligations or liabilities solely by reason of being a Member of the Company.
(b)    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 or any officer or employee of the Company, or by any other individual as to matters that such Member reasonably believes are within such other Person’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 distributions to the Members might properly be paid. Without limiting the foregoing, the Managing Member shall be fully protected in relying on the Class B Member’s directions in connection with any action taken pursuant to Section 3.3(b).
(c)    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 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 as limiting the obligations or liabilities of such Member in any capacity other than a member or manager, whether pursuant to this Agreement or otherwise.  The provisions of this Agreement, to the extent that they restrict or eliminate the duties and liabilities of a Member, in its capacity as a member or manager of the Company, otherwise existing at law or in equity, are agreed by the Members to replace such other duties and liabilities of such Member.
(d)    Except as otherwise provided in Section 9.10 hereof with respect to liability resulting from fraud or willful misconduct, with respect to its failure to pay any amount due to any 

7

Indemnified Parties under the Transaction Documents or with respect to Third Party claims, no Member, in its capacity as Managing Member or otherwise, shall have any liability of any kind to any other Member under this Agreement for monetary damages in an amount that would exceed its aggregate obligation to indemnify the Class B Indemnified Parties or the Class A Indemnified Parties, as applicable, pursuant to Section 9.10.
(e)    No Member, in its capacity as Managing Member, as long as such capacity shall exist, shall have any liability to the Company, a Member, or any other Person bound by this Agreement for damages resulting from a breach or breaches by the Operator of any of its obligations, covenants or agreements under the MOMA.
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 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, Incompetency, 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.  Subject to Section 8.2(d), 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.

CAPITAL CONTRIBUTIONS; CAPITAL ACCOUNTS
Section 4.1    Capital Contributions.  
(a)    The Members will make Capital Contributions to the Company at the times and in the amounts required under the ECCA and as described herein. The Members acknowledge that as of the Effective Date, (i) the Class A Member has made a Capital Contribution to the Company in an amount equal to the value of the Existing Systems and Existing Project, and any other assets owned by the Company immediately prior to the admission of the Class B Member, as set forth in Annex II, and (ii) the Class B Member has made the Capital Contributions as set forth on Annex II, and has agreed to make further Capital Contributions at the times and in the amounts provided in the ECCA up to the Maximum Aggregate Southern Portfolio Purchase Price.
(b)    The Company shall be entitled to enforce the obligations of the Class B Member with respect to any Capital Contribution to be made on or after the Effective Date and the obligations of the Class A Member with respect to the Capital Contribution made on the Effective Date, and the Company shall have all remedies available at law or in equity in the event any such obligation is not satisfied.

11

(c)    For federal income tax purposes, the admission of the Class B Member as a member of the Company on the Effective Date shall be treated as the formation by the Class A Member and the Class B Member of a new partnership, with the Class B Member being deemed to contribute to such new partnership cash in exchange for a partnership interest and the Class A Member being deemed to contribute to such new partnership the Existing Systems, the Existing Project, and all other assets owned by the Company immediately prior to the admission of the Class B Member in exchange for a partnership interest, and as if such new partnership assumed from the Class A Member all liabilities of the Company.  The Class A Member agrees to provide to the Company, with a copy to Southern, such information as may be necessary for purposes of determining the tax basis in the assets deemed to be contributed by the Class A Member and of complying with Section 704(c) of the Code.
Section 4.2    Capital Accounts.  
(a)    A Capital Account will be established and maintained for each Member in the manner required by the Treasury Regulations under Section 704(b) of the Code. 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 Gross Asset Value of any property the Member contributes to the Company (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 (or items thereof) that the Member is allocated by the Company, including any income and gain exempted from tax and gain described in Section 4.2(c). A Member’s Capital Account will be decreased by (iv) the amount of money distributed to the Member by the Company, (v) the Gross Asset Value of any property distributed to the Member by the Company (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., expenditures that cannot be capitalized or deducted in computing taxable income) that are allocated to the Member, and (vii) losses and deductions (or items thereof) that are allocated by the Company to the Member, including losses described in Section 4.2(c), but the Capital Account will not be reduced again under this clause (vii) for expenditures that already reduced it under clause (vi).
(c)    The Gross Asset Values of all the Company assets will be adjusted to equal their respective Gross Fair Market Values upon the occurrence of any of the following events:  (i) if any new or existing Member contributes more than a de minimis amount of money or property, (ii) if more than a de minimis amount of money or other property is distributed by the Company to a Member to redeem its Membership Interest, or (iii) if the Company is liquidated within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(g). Following the occurrence of an event in clauses (i) and (ii) the Managing Member will make an adjustment to Gross Asset Value only if it reasonably determines, after Consultation with the other Members, that the adjustments are necessary or appropriate to reflect the relative economic interests of the Members in the Company.  

12

In addition, the Gross Asset Value of any Company asset that is distributed to a Member will be adjusted to equal the Gross Fair Market Value of the asset on the applicable Distribution Date.  In the event the Gross Asset Value of any item of the Company’s property is adjusted as described in this Section 4.2(c), then the amount of the adjustment will be treated as an item of gain (if the adjustment increases the Gross Asset Value) or an item of loss (if the adjustment decreases the Gross Asset Value) from the disposition of such property.
(d)    The initial Capital Account balance and Percentage Interest of each Member is shown in Schedule 4.2(d). Any subsequent contributions made by the Members will be considered contributions of such amounts to the Company. The Managing Member will update Schedule 4.2(d) from time to time as necessary to reflect accurately the information therein; provided, however, that, notwithstanding anything in this Agreement or the ECCA to the contrary, failure to update Schedule 4.2(d) in accordance with this Section 4.2(d) shall not affect the actual amounts considered Capital Contributions hereunder, all of which shall be deemed made on the date actually contributed. 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.
(e)    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.
(f)    The provisions of this Agreement relating to maintenance of Capital Accounts are intended to comply with Treasury Regulation Sections 1.704-1(b) and 1.704-2, and will be interpreted and applied in a manner consistent with such Treasury Regulations or any successor provisions.

(a)    Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the Managing Member shall cause the Administrator to prepare and deliver to the Members within twenty (20) days after the end of each Accounting Period a statement (the “Revenue and Expense Statement”) setting forth the Administrator’s good faith determination of each of the Members’ allocated (in accordance with Section 5.1) revenues, expenses, income, gains and losses for such Accounting Period including the information set forth in Schedule 5.2, and prepared in accordance with GAAP.
(b)    After receipt of each Revenue and Expense Statement from the Administrator, the Members shall have thirty (30) days to review the Revenue and Expense Statement.  During each such thirty (30) day period, each Member and its Representatives shall have reasonable access to the accounting records of the Company and to such historical financial information relating to the Revenue and Expense Statement as such Member may reasonably request for the purpose of reviewing the Revenue and Expense Statement and preparing a Statement of Objections (as defined below).
(c)    On or prior to the thirtieth (30th) day after the Members’ receipt of each Revenue and Expense Statement, each Member may object to the Revenue and Expense Statement by delivering to the other Member a written statement setting forth such Member’s objections in reasonable detail, indicating each disputed item or amount and the basis for such Member’s disagreement therewith (the “Statement of Objections”).  If either Member timely 

16

delivers the Statement of Objections, the Members shall negotiate in good faith to resolve such objections within thirty (30) days after the delivery of the Statement of Objections.  If the Members are able to resolve such objections within such thirty (30) day period, the Revenue and Expense Statement and the calculation of the Existing Systems Income and Losses and the New Systems Income and Losses (and all components thereof), with such changes as may have been previously agreed upon in writing by the Members, shall be final and binding.
(d)    If the Members fail to reach an agreement with respect to all of the matters set forth in the Statement of Objections within the thirty (30) day period following delivery of the Statement of Objections, then any amounts remaining in dispute shall be submitted for resolution to the Independent Accountant who, acting as an expert and not an arbitrator, shall resolve the amounts in dispute only and make any resulting adjustments to the Revenue and Expense Statement and the calculation of Existing Systems Income and Losses and/or the New Systems Income and Losses (and all applicable components thereof remaining in dispute) contained therein in each case in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.  The Independent Accountant shall only decide the specific items under dispute by the Members, and may engage any engineers or other professionals as the Independent Accountant deems necessary to assist with such determination.
(e)    The fees and expenses of the Independent Accountant (and any third parties engaged by the Independent Accountant) shall be paid fifty percent (50%) by the Class A Member and fifty percent (50%) by the Class B Member; provided, however, that if either, but not both, of the Member’s initial submission as to net income or net income allocations varies by more than five percent (5%) from the determination of the Independent Accountant, that party will pay the fees and expenses of the Independent Accountant.
(f)    The Independent Accountant shall make a determination as soon as reasonably practicable within thirty (30) days (or such other time as the Members may agree in writing) after its engagement, and the Independent Accountant’s resolution of the disputed items and its adjustments to the Revenue and Expense Statement and the calculation of Existing Systems Income and Losses and/or the New Systems Income and Losses (and any applicable components thereof) contained therein shall be conclusive and binding upon the Class A Member and the Class B Member, absent fraud.
Section 5.3    Allocations.  After giving effect to the allocations in Section 5.4, for purposes of maintaining Capital Accounts, all items of Company income, loss, gain, deduction and credit for any Fiscal Year will be allocated among the Members as follows:
(a)    On and after the date hereof, all items of Existing Systems Income and Losses shall be allocated to the Class A Member, and all items of New Systems Income and Losses shall be allocated to the Class B Member.

17

(b)    No losses or deductions may be allocated to a Member pursuant to this Section 5.3 to the extent the allocation would lead to or increase a deficit in such Member’s Adjusted Capital Account.  Losses or deductions that a Member cannot be allocated by reason of this Section 5.3(b) will be allocated to the other Members.
Section 5.4    Adjustments. The following adjustments will be made in the allocations in Section 5.3 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 and gain in the amount of the net decrease will be allocated to Members in the ratio required by Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-2.  This provision is intended to comply with the minimum gain chargeback requirement in Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-2(f) and will be interpreted consistently therewith.
(b)    In any Fiscal Year in which there is a net decrease in Minimum Gain Attributable to Member Nonrecourse Debt, income and gain 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). This provision is intended to comply with the partner nonrecourse debt minimum gain chargeback requirement in Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-2(i)(4) and will be interpreted consistently therewith.
(c)    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 5.4(c) 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 5.3 and 5.4 have been tentatively made as if this Section 5.4(c) were not in this Agreement.
(d)    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 Section 5.3 and 5.4 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.
(e)    Nonrecourse Deductions for any Fiscal Year will be allocated to the Members in the same ratio as other income and loss under Section 5.3(a) or Sections 10.2(c) and (d), as applicable.
(f)    Any Member Nonrecourse Deductions for any Fiscal Year will be allocated to the Member who bears the economic risk of loss with respect to the Member Nonrecourse Debt 

18

to which the Member Nonrecourse Deductions are attributable in accordance with Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-2(i)(1).
(g)    If the Company distributes property to a Member in liquidation of the Membership Interest of the Member and there is an adjustment in the adjusted tax basis of Company property under Section 734(b) of the Code, there will be a corresponding adjustment to the Capital Account of the Member receiving the distribution.  If the Company distributes cash to a Member in excess of its outside basis in its Membership Interest, leading to an adjustment in the inside basis of the Company property under Section 734(b) of the Code, solely for purposes of adjusting Capital Accounts of the Members, the adjustment in the inside basis will be treated as gain or loss and be allocated among the Members in the same ratio as other gain or loss for the Fiscal Year in which the adjustment occurs.  This provision is intended to comply with Treasury Regulation Sections 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(m)(2) and (4) and will be interpreted consistently therewith.
(h)    The allocations in this Section 5.4 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 this 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 this Section 5.4.
Section 5.5    Tax Allocations.  
(a)    All 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 5.3 and 5.4, provided, however, that all state and federal tax credits (including, without limitation, the ITC) pertaining to the New Systems shall be allocated to the Class B Member in proportion to their Percentage Interest in New Systems Income and Losses;
(b)    Notwithstanding Section 5.5(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 United States federal income tax purposes and as determined under the definition of Gross Asset Value, 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 United States federal income tax purposes and its initial Gross Asset Value using the traditional method pursuant to Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-3(b).
(c)    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 will affect the transferee only and will not affect the Capital Account of the transferor or transferee.  In such case, the transferee will be required to agree to provide to the 

19

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.
(d)    Solely for purposes of determining a Member’s proportionate share of the “excess non-recourse liabilities” of the Company within the meaning of Treasury Regulation Section 1.752-3(a)(3), each Member’s share of such liability shall be consistent with the ratio of the Existing Systems Income and Losses over the sum of Existing Systems Income and Losses and New Systems Income and Losses, , as to the Class A Member, and the ratio of the New Systems Income and Losses over the sum of the New Systems Income and Losses and the Existing Systems Income and Losses, as to the Class B Member, then in effect.
Section 5.6    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, 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.
Section 5.7    Timing of Allocations.  Items of income, gain, loss, deduction and credit will be allocated to the Members pursuant to this Article V as of the last day of each Fiscal Year; provided that such items shall also be allocated at such times as the Gross Asset Values of the Company’s assets are adjusted pursuant to Section 4.2(c) and prior to any distribution under Section 10.2.
ARTICLE VI

(b)    Notwithstanding Section 6.1(a) or anything else to the contrary contained herein, (i) any proceeds from the sale of the Existing Systems under the Repurchase Agreement (other than the “Agreement Date Deposit”, “First Subsequent Deposit”, “Second Subsequent Deposit” and “Third Subsequent Deposit” under and as defined in the Repurchase Agreement), (ii) any other proceeds derived from the Existing Systems, (iii) any proceeds released from any reserves held for the benefit of the Existing Systems, (iv) any insurance proceeds related to the Existing Systems or (v) any warranty or guaranty payments related to the Existing Systems shall be distributed 100% to the Class A Member. Notwithstanding anything else in this Agreement or the Repurchase Agreement, the Members agree to treat any such proceeds as a distribution of money for purposes of Section 731 of the Code.

All of the foregoing payments or distributions shall be made by the Company within one (1) Business Day of the Company’s receipt of such amount. Notwithstanding anything else in this Agreement or the Repurchase Agreement, the Members agree to treat any proceeds under (3) as a distribution of money for purposes of Section 731 of the Code.
(d)    Notwithstanding Section 6.1(a) or anything else to the contrary contained herein, (i) any proceeds derived from the New Systems, (ii) any proceeds released from any reserves held for the benefit of the New Systems, (iv) any insurance proceeds related to the New Systems or (v) any warranty or guaranty payments related to the New Systems shall be distributed 100% to the Class B Member.

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 fails to withhold from actual distributions any amounts it was required to withhold, the Company may, at its option, as determined by Managing Member, (a) require the Member to which the withholding was credited to reimburse the Company for such withholding, or (b) 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 or Managing Member 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 of Company Distributable Cash will be made if the distribution would violate any contract or agreement to which the Company is then a party, the Act or any other Legal Requirement then applicable to the Company.
Section 6.4    No Return of Distributions.  Any distribution of Company Distributable 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.

25

Class B Member with all information possessed by the Class A Member and necessary for the preparation of the Tax Returns of the Company. If a Member notifies the Managing Member that any real property Taxes with respect to the Project were assessed against or invoiced to such Member, then the Managing Member will cause the Company to pay such Taxes in full and in a timely manner and, as appropriate, allocate such cost to either the Existing Systems Income and Losses or the New Systems Income and Losses. With respect to each Tax Year, the Class B Member will cause the Company to prepare preliminary Tax Returns and issue preliminary K-1’s to the Members no later than March 1 of the following Tax Year. The Class B Member, in Consultation with the other Members, may extend the time for filing any such Tax Returns as provided for under applicable statutes; provided that, in the event of any such extension, the Class B Member shall provide each of the other Members with an estimate of such Member’s distributive share of each category of tax items of the Company described in Section 702(a) of the Code for such Tax Year within 20 days of the filing of such extension. At the Company’s expense, the Class B Member may cause the Company to retain an Accounting Firm to prepare or review and sign 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.  At least 30  days prior to filing the federal and state income Tax Returns, which shall be filed no later than September 15th of each calendar year the Class B Member shall deliver to the other Members for their review a copy of the Company’s federal and state income Tax Returns in the form proposed to be filed for each Fiscal Year and shall incorporate all reasonable changes or comments to such proposed Tax Returns requested by the other Members (who shall be required to make all reasonable efforts to provide such changes or comments in a reasonable amount of time) at least 10 days prior to the filing date for such returns.  The dispute provisions under Section 11.11 may be invoked if the other Member disagrees with a position taken on any Tax Return; provided that the Accounting Firm preparing the Tax Return still must be able to sign the Tax Return consistent with the resolution of the dispute; provided, further that if the dispute process would not be completed by the date that the Tax Return must be filed under this Section 7.6, then the Class B Member will file the Tax Return as originally prepared by the required date, but the Class B Member may be required to amend the Tax Return after a conclusion is reached in the dispute process; and provided still further that in the event such challenge confirms the original position in question, the challenging Member shall promptly pay all of the Accounting Firm’s reasonable fees and expenses incurred in connection with such challenge.  After taking into account any such requested changes, the Class B 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 Class B 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.

(b)    Beginning on the Effective Date (or, with respect to any additional Member that becomes a Member after the Effective Date, on the first date on which such Person becomes a Member hereunder) and continuing thereafter, the Class B Member agrees to indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Class A Indemnified Parties and the Company from and against any and all the Class A Indemnified Costs; provided, however, except with respect to Class A Member Indemnified Costs (x) resulting from fraud or willful misconduct, (y) resulting from failure to pay any amount due to Class A Indemnified Parties under this Agreement or the ECCA or (z) resulting from a Third Party Claim, in no event will the Class B Member’s aggregate obligations (including any prior indemnity payments by the Class B Member under this Agreement or under the ECCA) to indemnify the Class A Indemnified Parties hereunder exceed 100% of the amount of the Class A Member’s initial Capital Account balance shown on Schedule 4.2(d) as of the Effective Date.

An Indemnified Party shall give written notice to the Indemnifying Party within 10 days after it has actual knowledge of commencement or assertion of any Third Party Claim in respect of which the Indemnified Party may seek indemnification under Section 9.10.  Such notice shall state the nature and basis of such Third Party Claim and the events and the amounts thereof to the extent known.  Any failure to so notify the Indemnifying Party shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party from any liability that the Indemnifying Party may have to the Indemnified Party under this Article IX, except to the extent the failure to give such notice materially and adversely prejudices the Indemnifying Party.  In case any such action, proceeding or claim is brought against an Indemnified Party, so long as it has acknowledged in writing to the Indemnified Party that it is liable for such Third Party Claim pursuant to this Section 9.13, the Indemnifying Party shall be entitled to participate in and, unless in the reasonable judgment of the Indemnified Party a conflict of interests between it and the Indemnifying Party may exist in respect of such Third Party Claim or such Third Party Claim entails a material risk of criminal penalties or civil fines or non-monetary sanctions being imposed on the Indemnified Party or a risk of materially adversely affecting the Indemnified Party’s business (a “Third Party Penalty Claim”), to assume the defense thereof, with counsel selected by the Indemnifying Party and reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party, and after notice from the Indemnifying Party to the Indemnified Party of its election so to assume the defense thereof, the Indemnifying Party shall not be liable to the Indemnified Party for any legal or other expenses subsequently incurred by the latter in connection with the defense thereof; provided nothing contained herein shall permit the Class A Member to control or participate in any Tax contest or dispute involving a Class A Member or any Affiliate of a Class A Member, or permit a Class B Member to control or participate in any Tax contest or dispute involving any Affiliate of the Class B Member; and; provided, further, the Parties agree that the handling of any Tax contests involving the Company will be governed by Section 7.7.  In the event that (i) the Indemnifying Party advises an Indemnified Party that the Indemnifying Party will not contest a claim for indemnification hereunder, (ii) the Indemnifying Party fails, within 30  days of receipt of any indemnification notice to notify, in writing, such Indemnified Party of its election, to defend, settle or compromise, at its sole cost and expense, any such Third Party Claim (or discontinues its defense at any time after it commences such defense) or (iii) in the reasonable judgment of the Indemnified Party, a conflict of interests between it and the Indemnifying Party exists in respect of such Third Party Claim or the action or claim is a Third Party Penalty Claim, then the Indemnified Party may, at its option, defend, settle or otherwise compromise or pay such action or claim or Third Party Claim in each case, at the sole cost and expense of the Indemnifying Party.  In any event, unless and until the Indemnifying Party elects in writing to assume and does so assume the defense of any such claim, proceeding or action, the Indemnifying Party shall be liable for the Indemnified Party’s reasonable costs and expenses arising out of the defense, settlement or compromise of any such action, claim or proceeding. The Indemnified Party shall cooperate to the extent commercially reasonable with the Indemnifying Party in connection with any negotiation 

37

or defense of any such action or claim by the Indemnifying Party.  The Indemnifying Party shall keep the Indemnified Party fully apprised at all times as to the status of the defense or any settlement negotiations with respect thereto.  If the Indemnifying Party elects to defend any such action or claim, then the Indemnified Party shall be entitled to participate in such defense with counsel of its choice at its sole cost and expense unless otherwise specified herein; provided that any such participation of the Indemnified Party shall be at the Indemnifying Party’s sole cost and expense to the extent such participation relates to a Third Party Penalty Claim.  If the Indemnifying Party does not assume such defense, the Indemnified Party shall keep the Indemnifying Party apprised at all times as to the status of the defense; provided, however, that the failure to keep the Indemnifying Party so informed shall not affect the obligations of the Indemnifying Party hereunder.  The Indemnifying Party shall not be liable for any settlement of any action, claim or proceeding effected without its written consent; provided, however, that the Indemnifying Party shall not unreasonably withhold, delay or condition any such consent.  Notwithstanding anything in this Section 9.13 to the contrary, the Indemnifying Party shall not, without the Indemnified Party’s prior written consent, (i) settle or compromise any claim or consent to entry of judgment in respect thereof which involves any condition other than payment of money by the Indemnified Party, (ii) settle or compromise any claim or consent to entry of judgment in respect thereof without first demonstrating to Indemnified Party the ability to pay such claim or judgment, or (iii) settle or compromise any claim or consent to entry of judgment in respect thereof that does not include, as an unconditional term thereof, the giving by the claimant or the plaintiff to the Indemnified Party, a full and complete release from all liability in respect of such claim.
Section 9.14    No Duplication.  Any liability for indemnification under this Article IX shall be determined without duplication of recovery.  Without limiting the generality of the prior sentence, if a statement of facts, condition or event constitutes a breach of more than one representation, warranty, covenant or agreement which is subject to the indemnification obligation in Section 9.10, only one recovery of Indemnified Costs per Indemnified Party shall be allowed.
Section 9.15    Sole Remedy.  Except in the case of fraud, willful misconduct or failure to pay, the enforcement of the claims of the Parties under Article IX of this Agreement are the sole and exclusive remedies that a Party shall have under this Agreement and the ECCA for the recovery of Indemnified Costs; provided, however, that notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, each Party hereby reserves all equitable remedies.
Section 9.16    Final Date for Assertion of Indemnity Claims.  All claims by an Indemnified Party for indemnification pursuant to this Article IX resulting from breaches of representations or warranties in Article III of the ECCA shall be forever barred unless the other Party is notified within the time periods provided in Section 7.7 of the ECCA, provided that if written notice of a claim for indemnification has been given by an Indemnified Party on or prior to the last day of the applicable period, then the obligation of the other Party to indemnify such Indemnified Party pursuant to this Article IX shall survive with respect to such claim until such claim is finally resolved.

38

Section 9.17    Reasonable Steps to Mitigate.  Each Indemnified Party will take, at the Indemnifying Party’s own reasonable cost and expense, all reasonable commercial steps identified by Indemnifying Party to the Indemnified Parties to mitigate all Indemnified Costs (other than any such Indemnified Costs that are Taxes), which steps may include availing itself of any defenses, limitations, rights of contribution, claims against third Persons and other rights at law or equity.  The Indemnified Parties will provide such evidence and documentation of the nature and extent of the Indemnified Costs as may be reasonably requested by the Indemnifying Party.
Section 9.18    Net of Insurance Benefits.  All Indemnified Costs shall be net of insurance recoveries from insurance policies of the Company (including under the existing title policies) to the extent that any proceeds of such policies, less any costs, expenses or premiums incurred by the Company in connection therewith, are distributed by the Company to the Indemnified Party; provided, however, such amount shall account for any costs or expenses incurred by the Indemnified Party in connection with obtaining insurance proceeds with respect to any breach or nonperformance hereunder.
Section 9.19    No Consequential Damages.  Indemnified Costs shall not include, and an Indemnifying Party shall have no obligation to indemnify any Indemnified Party for or in respect of, any punitive, consequential or exemplary damages of any nature including but not limited to damages for lost profits or revenues or the loss or use of such profits or revenue, loss by reason of plant shutdown or inability to operate at rated capacity, increased operating expenses of plant or equipment, increased costs of purchasing or providing equipment, materials, labor, services, costs of replacement, power or capital, debt service fees or penalties, inventory or use charges, damages to reputation, damages for lost opportunities, or claims of the Company’s customers, Members or Affiliates, regardless of whether said claim is based upon contract, warranty, tort (including negligence and strict liability) or other theory of law unless payable by such Indemnified Party as part of a Third Party Claim; provided, however, that the lost profits or revenues (and the loss or use thereof) language set forth in this Section 9.19 shall not be interpreted to exclude from Indemnified Costs any damages, losses, claims, liabilities, demands charges, suits, Taxes, penalties, costs or expenses that would otherwise be included within the definition of Indemnified Costs because they result from a reduction in the profits of the Company.
Section 9.20    Payment of Indemnification Claims.  All claims for indemnification shall be paid by Indemnifying Party in immediately available funds in U.S. dollars.  Any undisputed portion of an indemnification claim shall be paid promptly by the Indemnifying Party to the Indemnified Parties involved.  An Indemnifying Party may dispute any portion of an indemnification claim; provided, however, that such disputed indemnification claim shall be paid promptly by the Indemnifying Party to the Indemnified Party together with interest at a market rate upon the final determination of the payable amount of the claim (if any) by a court of competent jurisdiction.
Section 9.21    Repayment; Subrogation.  If the amount of any Indemnified Costs, at any time after the making of an indemnity payment in respect thereof, is reduced by recovery, settlement or otherwise under any insurance coverage (excluding any proceeds from self-insurance 

39

or flow through insurance policies) or under any claim, recovery, settlement or payment by or against any other entity, the amount of such reduction, less any costs, expenses or premiums incurred in connection therewith, must promptly be repaid by the Indemnified Party to the Indemnifying Party net of any Taxes imposed upon the Indemnified Party in respect of such amounts, but taking into account any Tax benefit the Indemnified Party receives as a result of such repayment.  Upon making any indemnity payment (other than any indemnity payment relating to Taxes), the Indemnifying Party will, to the extent of such indemnity payment, be subrogated to all rights of the Indemnified Party against any third party, except third parties that provide insurance coverage to the Indemnified Party or its Affiliates, in respect of the Indemnified Costs to which the indemnity payment relates.  Without limiting the generality or effect of any other provision hereof, each such Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party shall duly execute upon request all instruments reasonably necessary to evidence and perfect the above described subrogation rights, and otherwise cooperate in the prosecution of such claims at the direction of the Indemnifying Party.  Nothing in this Section 9.21 will be construed to require any Party to obtain or maintain any insurance coverage.

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 Class 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 disposition of all or substantially all of the Company’s business and assets;
(d)    the issuance of a final, nonappealable court order which makes it unlawful for the business of the Company to be carried on; or
(e)    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 a Class Majority Vote, will a sale to a 

40

Member be for an amount that is less than fair market value (determined by the Appraisal Method if the Members (by a Class 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 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.
(c)    All assets of the Company will be treated as if sold.
(d)    Items of income, gain, loss and deduction for the taxable year of liquidation, including any gain or loss upon the deemed sale of a Company asset under Section 10.2(c) hereof, will be allocated among the members as provided under Section 5.3 after giving effect to the allocations in Section 5.4.
(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 ninety (90) days after the date of such liquidation).
(f)    The distribution of cash and property to a Member under 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, except as provided in Section 9.10.
Section 10.3    In-Kind Distributions.  There shall be no distribution of assets of the Company in kind without a prior Class Majority Vote.
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.

41

(c)    All costs and expenses in fulfilling the obligations under this Section 10.4 shall be borne by the Company.
ARTICLE XI     
MISCELLANEOUS
Section 11.1    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 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 11.1.  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 (5th) Business Day following its deposit in registered or certified mail, with postage prepaid, and return receipt requested, (iii) the second (2nd) Business Day following its deposit with a recognized overnight courier service or (iv) the date of receipt of a facsimile 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 11.2    Amendment.  Except for an amendment of Schedule 4.2(d), an amendment of Annex II to reflect the issuance of additional Membership Interests or a Transfer of Membership Interests, or an amendment in connection with the admission of a new Member, in each case 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 all Members.
Section 11.3    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 11.4    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 other Person in default with respect to the Company, irrespective of how long that failure continues, does not constitute a waiver by the Person so failing of its rights with respect to that other Person or its rights with respect to that default until the applicable statute of limitations period has lapsed.  All waivers 

42

and consents hereunder shall be in writing duly executed by all Members affected by such waiver or consent and shall be delivered to the other Members in the manner described in Section 11.1.
Section 11.5    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 11.6    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 Legal Requirements, 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 11.7    Entire Agreement.  This Agreement, including the Schedules, Annexes and Exhibits attached hereto or incorporated herein by reference, and the ECCA, and the Class B Guaranty constitute 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.
Section 11.8    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.
Section 11.9    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 11.10    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 

43

instrument, binding upon all parties hereto, notwithstanding that all of such parties may not have executed the same counterpart.
Section 11.11    Dispute Resolution.  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 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 twenty-one (21) days, the parties will thereafter be entitled to pursue all such remedies as may be available to them; provided that the parties hereby irrevocably submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of any state or federal court in New York county, New York or any state of federal court in the State of Delaware with respect to any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement.  For the avoidance of doubt, no Member waives its right to maintain a legal action or proceeding in the courts of the State of Delaware with respect to matters relating to the organization or internal affairs of the Company.
Section 11.12    Confidentiality.  
(a)    Each of the Members shall, and shall cause their Affiliates and their respective stockholders, members, subsidiaries and Representatives to, hold confidential all information they may have or obtain concerning the Class B Member, the Class A Member, any other Member, the Company and their respective assets, business, operations or prospects or this Agreement (the “Confidential Information”); provided, however, such Confidential Information shall not include information that (i) becomes generally available to the public other than as a result of a disclosure by such Member or any of its Representatives, (ii) becomes available to such Member or any of its Representatives on a nonconfidential basis prior to its disclosure by the Company or its Representatives, (iii) is required or requested to be disclosed by such Member or any of its Affiliates or their respective stockholders, members, subsidiaries or Representatives as a result of any applicable Legal Requirement or rule or regulation of any stock exchange, the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, Inc. or other regulatory authority or self-regulatory authority having jurisdiction over such Member, (iv) is required or requested by the IRS in connection with the Project, including in connection with a request for any private letter ruling, any determination letter or any audit, or (v) is independently developed by  Member or any of its Representatives; provided that with respect to clauses (iii) and (iv), if such Confidential Information remains or is reasonably believed to remain generally unavailable to the public, such information will remain Confidential Information in all other respects and for all other purposes.  If such party becomes compelled by legal or administrative process to disclose any Confidential Information, such party will provide the other Members with prompt notice so that the other Members may seek a protective order or other appropriate remedy or waive compliance with the non-disclosure provisions of this Section 11.12(a) with respect to the information required to be disclosed.  If such protective order or other remedy is not obtained, or such other Members waive compliance with the non-disclosure provisions of this Section 11.12(a) with respect to the information required to be disclosed, the first party will furnish only that portion of such information that it is advised, by opinion of counsel, is 

44

legally required to be furnished and will exercise reasonable efforts, at the other Members’ expense, to obtain reliable assurance that confidential treatment will be accorded such information, including, in the case of disclosures to the IRS described in clause (iv) above, to obtain reliable assurance that, to the maximum extent permitted by applicable Legal Requirements, such information will not be made available for public inspection pursuant to Section 6110 of the Code.
(b)    Except to the extent necessary for the exercise of its rights and remedies and the performance of its obligations under this Agreement, the Project Documents and Transaction Documents (including without limitation, the ownership, operation and administration of the Company), the Class B Member, the Class A Member and their respective Affiliates will hold confidential and not disclose directly or indirectly, any of the economic terms particular to this Agreement and the ECCA, including the amount of any Member’s Capital Contribution, economic returns thereon or the identity of any Member other than with respect to the disclosures of the type described in clause (a)(i) through (v) above or in clause (c) below that are permitted for the other Members and their respective Affiliates. The foregoing shall not restrict the Class B Member (or any Affiliate) from using project data related to the Project in connection with the development of other energy projects by the Class B Member (or any of their respective Affiliates).
(c)    Nothing in Section 11.12(a) and (b) shall be construed as prohibiting a party hereunder or its Affiliates from using such Confidential Information in connection with (i) any claim against another Member or the Managing Member hereunder or under any other Transaction Document or Project Document, (ii) any exercise by a party hereunder of any of its rights hereunder and under any other Transaction Document or Project Document (including without limitation, the ownership, operation and administration of the Company) and (iii) a disposition by a Member of all or a portion of its Membership Interest or a disposition of an equity interest in such Member or its Affiliates, or a potential financing of the Project; provided that such potential purchaser or lender shall have entered into a confidentiality agreement with respect to Confidential Information on customary terms used in confidentiality agreements in connection with corporate acquisitions before any such information may be disclosed.  In addition, each Member hereby acknowledges that the United States federal securities laws, among other things, prohibit certain persons in possession of material, non-public information concerning companies or securities from buying or selling securities issued by those companies or disclosing that material, non-public information to others who buy or sell those securities while in possession of that information (or disclose that information to others who buy or sell).  Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Parties and their respective Representatives may disclose to any and all Persons, without limitation of any kind, the U.S. federal income tax treatment and tax structure of the transaction and all materials of any kind (including opinions and other tax analyses) that are provided to such Party relating to such tax treatment and tax structure, except where confidentiality is reasonably necessary to comply with securities laws.  For this purpose, “tax structure” is limited to facts relevant to the U.S. federal income tax treatment of the transaction and does not include information relating to the identity of the Parties, their Affiliates, agents or advisors.

45

Section 11.13    Joint Efforts.  To the full extent permitted by applicable Legal Requirements, 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.
Section 11.14    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 full 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 11.15    Tariff Damages Collateral.  
(a)    Within one (1) Business Day of the Class A Member’s receipt of the distribution of any amounts constituting the “First Subsequent Deposit” pursuant to Section 6.1(c), the Class A Member will provide a letter of credit from a major money center bank in favor of the Class B Member in the amount of such distribution, which letter of credit will be in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Class B Member. Within one (1) Business Day of the Class A Member’s receipt of the distribution of any amounts constituting the “Second Subsequent Deposit” pursuant to Section 6.1(c), the Class A Member shall cause the face value of the letter of credit described in the preceding sentence to be increased by the amount of such distribution or, at the Class A Member’s sole discretion, shall provide a second letter of credit from a major money center bank in favor of the Class B Member in such amount. The letter(s) of credit established and maintained under this Section 11.15(a) shall be substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit F, with such changes thereto as may be requested by the issuing bank and are reasonably satisfactory to the Class A Member and the Class B Member, and may be referred to as the “Tariff Damages Collateral”. The Class A Member shall be under no obligation to replenish the Tariff Damages Collateral in the event of any draws thereon by the Class B Member.
(b)    Up until such time as the Tariff Damages equal $0.00 pursuant to the terms of the ECCA, the  letter(s) of credit constituting the Tariff Damages Collateral shall be renewed annually at least 15 days prior to expiration and, if such renewal does not occur, the Class B Indemnitees may draw upon the full amount of such letter(s) of credit and hold such funds in escrow as cash security as the Tariff Damages Collateral, but shall return to the Class A Member such Tariff Damages Collateral which has not been applied on or before June 30, 2025.

46

(c)    Beginning on July 1, 2022, the amount of the Tariff Damages Collateral may be reduced once per month to the amount of the then-applicable Tariff Damages.
(d)    For the avoidance of doubt, neither the Class A Member nor Mehetia (nor any of Mehetia’s direct or indirect owners or any Affiliates of Mehetia or such owners) shall have any liability to the Class B Indemnitees for any Tariff Damages (or for any failure to renew the letter(s) of credit constituting the Tariff Damages Collateral) except that the Class B Indemnitees may draw on the then remaining Tariff Damages Collateral.
Section 11.16    Assumed Tax Benefits Collateral.  Within one (1) Business Day of the Class A Member’s receipt of any amounts constituting the “Third Subsequent Deposit” pursuant to Section 6.1(c), the Class A Member will provide a letter of credit from a major money center bank in favor of the Class B Member in the amount of such distribution, which letter of credit will be substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit F, with such changes thereto as may be requested by the issuing bank and are reasonably satisfactory to the Class A Member and the Class B Member  (the “Assumed Tax Benefits Collateral”).  The letter of credit will expire no sooner than September 30, 2020. The Class A Member shall be under no obligation to replenish the Assumed Tax Benefits Collateral in the event of any draws thereon by the Class B Member.  For the avoidance of doubt, neither the Class A Member nor Mehetia (nor any of Mehetia’s direct or indirect owners or any Affiliates of Mehetia or such owners) shall have any liability to the Class B Indemnitees for any reduction of the Assumed Tax Benefits (or for any failure to renew the letter(s) of credit constituting the Assumed Tax Benefits Collateral) except that the Class B Indemnitees may draw on the then remaining Assumed Tax Benefits Collateral.
Section 11.17    Survival.  All representations, warranties, covenants and obligations made or undertaken by a Party in this Agreement or in any other Transaction Document are material, have been relied upon by the other Parties and, except as otherwise provided in Section 11.17 or elsewhere in this Agreement (or, with respect to any representations, warranties, covenants and obligations made or undertaken in any other Transaction Document, in such Transaction Document), shall continue in full force and effect, together with the associated rights of indemnification, indefinitely; provided that 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 11.18    Effective Date.  This Agreement shall have no force or effect unless and until the transactions contemplated by the ECCA to take place on the Closing Date occur, at which time this Agreement shall automatically and without any further action, other than the execution hereof, become effective simultaneously with the other actions occurring on the Closing Date.
Section 11.19    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 

47

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; provided however the foregoing shall not prohibit recourse, directly or indirectly, against Southern under the Class B Guaranty.
