(c)This Amendment is a Loan Document.  
10.Entire Agreement.  This Amendment constitutes the entire agreement between Borrower and Bank pertaining to the subject matter contained herein and supersedes all prior agreements, understandings, offers and negotiations, oral or written, with respect hereto and no extrinsic evidence whatsoever may be introduced in any judicial or arbitration proceeding, if any, involving this Amendment.  All of the terms and provisions of this Amendment are hereby incorporated by reference into the Loan Agreement, as applicable, as if such terms and provisions were set forth in full therein, as applicable.  All references in the Loan Agreement to “this Agreement”, “hereto”, “hereof”, “hereunder” or words of like import shall mean the Loan Agreement as amended hereby.  
11.Release.  Borrower may have certain Claims against the Released Parties, as those terms are defined below, regarding or relating to the Loan Agreement or the other Loan Documents.  Bank and Borrower desire to resolve each and every one of such Claims in conjunction with the execution of this Amendment and thus Borrower makes the releases contained in this Section 10.  In consideration of Bank entering into this Amendment, Borrower  hereby fully and unconditionally releases and forever discharges Bank and its directors, officers, employees, subsidiaries, branches, affiliates, attorneys, agents, representatives, successors and assigns and all persons, firms, corporations and organizations acting on any of their behalf (collectively, the “Released Parties”), of and from any and all claims, allegations, causes of action, costs or demands and liabilities, of whatever kind or nature, from the beginning of the world to the date on which this Amendment is executed, whether known or unknown, liquidated or unliquidated, fixed or contingent, asserted or unasserted, foreseen or unforeseen, matured or unmatured, suspected or unsuspected, anticipated or unanticipated, which Borrower has, had, claims to have had or hereafter claims to have against the Released Parties by reason of any act or omission on the part of the Released Parties, or any of them, occurring prior to the date on which this Amendment is executed, including all such loss or damage of any kind heretofore sustained or that may arise as a consequence of the dealings among the parties up to and including the date on which this Amendment is executed, including the administration or enforcement of the Loans, the Obligations, the Loan Agreement or any of the Loan Documents (collectively, all of the foregoing, the “Claims”).  Borrower represents and warrants that it has no knowledge of any claim by it against the Released Parties or of any facts or acts of omission of the Released Parties which on the date hereof would be the basis of a claim by Borrower against the Released Parties which is not released hereby.  Borrower represents and warrants that the foregoing constitutes a full and complete release of all Claims.
12.Severability.  The provisions of this Amendment are severable, and if any clause or provision shall be held invalid or unenforceable in whole or in part in any jurisdiction, then such invalidity or unenforceability shall affect only such clause or provision, or part thereof, in such jurisdiction and shall not in any manner affect such clause or provision in any other jurisdiction, or any other clause or provision in this Amendment in any jurisdiction.

WHEREAS, pursuant to Section 9.4 of the LLC Agreement, the Managing Member may, without the written consent of any other Member or any other Person, so amend the LLC Agreement;
WHEREAS, pursuant to Section 9.4 of the LLC Agreement, without further action or execution on the part of any other Member or other Person, this Amendment may be executed solely by the Managing Member and the other Members shall be deemed a party to and bound by this Amendment as of the date of hereof; 
WHEREAS, the ratio calculation in the Distribution Forbearance Provisions of the Prospectus for the Company’s initial public offering, dated July 17, 2014, provides as follows: “(i) the As Delivered CAFD (as defined [therein]) with respect to the Contributed Construction Projects and any substitute projects contributed by our Sponsor to Terra LLC in the event any of the identified projects fails to achieve COD, or the “Completed CAFD Contribution Amount” to (ii) a CAFD threshold of $38.84 million, or the “CAFD Forbearance Threshold,” which [was as of the date of the Prospectus] anticipated to be generated by the Contributed Construction Projects”.

AMENDMENT
NOW THEREFORE, the Managing Member hereby amends the LLC Agreement as follows:
		
	1.
	Definition of "CAFD Forbearance Threshold". The definition of "CAFD Forbearance Threshold" in the LLC Agreement is replaced in its entirety with the following:

""CAFD Forbearance Threshold" means $38,840,000."

		
	2.
	Section 4.1(c). Section 4.1(c) in the LLC Agreement is replaced in its entirety with the following:

"(c) Distribution Forbearance. Notwithstanding the foregoing, during the Distribution Forbearance Period, distributions to the Class B Members shall be limited as follows: 
(i) the Class B Members will not, under any circumstances, be entitled to receive any distributions with respect to the third and fourth Quarter of 2014 (i.e., distributions declared on or prior to March 31, 2015); and 
(ii) thereafter, when any distribution is made to the Class A Members and Class B1 Members with respect to a specific Quarter, the Class B Members will be entitled to receive, on a per Unit basis, an amount equal to the product of: 
(A) the per Unit amount of the distribution to the Class A Members and Class B1 Members, multiplied by 
(B) the Completed CAFD Contribution Amount, divided by the CAFD Forbearance Threshold. 
Any distributions forgone by the Class B Members pursuant to this Section 4.1(c) will not be distributed to the other Members and will not constitute an arrearage on the Class B Units. After the date on which the Distribution Forbearance Period ends, distributions will be made to the Class B Members in accordance with Section 4.1(a) and Section 4.1(b) above."

	6.
	Reference to the LLC Agreement. Any and all notices, requests, certificates and other documents or instruments executed and delivered concurrently with or after the execution and delivery of this Amendment may refer to the LLC Agreement without making specific reference to this Amendment, but all such references shall be deemed to include this Amendment, unless the context shall otherwise require.

		
	7.

Any counterpart may be delivered by facsimile transmission or by electronic communication in portable document format (.pdf).

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Managing Member has executed this Amendment, effective as of the date first written above.
