        Debtors, and (iv) vote their Non-Wildfire Claims in any manner deemed appropriate to the Supporting Public Entity holding such Non-Wildfire Claim, in such Supporting Public Entity’s sole discretion.

    

    

    (e)           Certain Tax Matters.  In furtherance of the Plan Treatment, the Supporting Public Entities agree to file all applicable
        United States federal, state and local tax returns, filings and submissions in a manner consistent with treatment of all amounts distributable as restitution, including any filings required to be made by the Supporting Public Entities under Section
        6050X of the U.S. Internal Revenue Code.  As may be reasonably requested by the Company, the Supporting Public Entities shall reasonably cooperate with the Company in connection with the Company’s preparation and filing of any applicable tax
        returns, filings or submissions and any audit or other tax proceeding with respect thereto, to the extent related to this Agreement; provided, however, the Supporting Public Entities shall not be obligated to incur any unreimbursed out-of-pocket
        cost, expense or liability in connection with such cooperation.

    

    

    (f)            The Parties acknowledge and agree that (i) the Supporting Public Entities did not demand and the Company did not agree that any portion of the Settlement Payment is on account of any claims or damages of
        the Supporting Public Entities as to which any monies or benefits

    

    

    
      

    1 As used herein, the term “beneficial ownership” means the direct or indirect economic ownership of, and/or the power, whether by contract or otherwise, to direct the exercise of the voting rights and the
        disposition of, the Claims or the right to acquire such Claims.

    were provided, are being provided, or will be provided to the Supporting Public Entities from California Office of Emergency Services (“OES”), the Federal Emergency Management Agency (“FEMA”) or
        any other government payment or assistance, or any insurers or re-insurers of the Supporting Public Entities, (ii) the Settlement Payment and Plan Treatment provided for in this Agreement does not evidence any settlement of any claims the OES, FEMA
        or any other government entity or agency, or the Supporting Public Entities’ insurers or re-insurers may have against the Company, and (iii) nothing in this Agreement in any way releases, limits, modifies or in any way affects any claims that OES,
        FEMA, or any other government entity or agency, or the Supporting Public Entities’ insurers or re-insurers may have against the Company (including, but not limited to, any insurance provider subrogation claims).

    

    

    4.              Agreements of the Company.

    

    

    (a)          Filing of Supporting Public Entities’ Claims.  Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Supporting
        Public Entities, in order to protect their rights if this Agreement is terminated, may file timely proofs of claim in the Chapter 11 Cases in any amount the Supporting Public Entities deem appropriate evidencing any and all Claims they may have
        against the Debtors, including but not limited to the Wildfire Claims; provided, however, the Debtors shall not object to, seek any setoff with respect to, dispute the amount of, or otherwise contest any Wildfire Claim submitted by a Supporting
        Public Entity during the Plan Support Period and shall affirmatively support the Plan Treatment of the Supporting Public Entities’ Wildfire Claims consistent with this Agreement; provided further that the Supporting Public Entities hereby
        acknowledge and agree that the Settlement Payment is a reasonable amount to fully liquidate, settle and resolve all Wildfire Claims  regardless of the Claim amount that may be asserted in such proofs of Claim and the Supporting Public Entities,
        with the exception of filing the proofs of Claim provided for in this section, will not during the Plan Support Period take any public or private position to the contrary.  For avoidance of doubt, if this Agreement is terminated, the Debtors may
        object to any proofs of claim filed by the Supporting Public Entities on any basis whatsoever.

    

    

    (b)         Covenants.  Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, unless compliance is waived in writing by the Supporting Public
        Entities, the Company agrees that during the Plan Support Period they shall:

    

    

    (i)            prepare or cause to be prepared the Debtor Plan, Disclosure Statement and all relevant motions, applications, orders, agreements and other documents directly related thereto, each of which, for the
        avoidance of doubt, shall contain terms and conditions consistent with the Plan Treatment;

    

    

    (ii)            provide draft copies of the foregoing documents that the Company intends to file with the Bankruptcy Court to counsel for the Supporting Public Entities as soon as reasonably practicable prior to such
        documents being filed with the Bankruptcy Court, and to consult in good faith with counsel for the Supporting Public Entities regarding the form and substance of any of the foregoing documents in advance of the filing, execution, distribution or
        use (as applicable) thereof;

    

    

    (iii)           include the necessary provisions in any Debtor Plan proposed by the Debtors to effectuate the Plan Treatment and to carry out the terms of this Agreement;

    

    

    
      9

      
        

    

    

    

    

    

    (iv)         support and take all commercially reasonable efforts to facilitate the solicitation and confirmation of the Debtor Plan, including the Plan Treatment, and take all reasonably necessary actions to
        consummate the Debtor Plan, including the Plan Treatment, and the transactions contemplated thereby;

    

    

    (v)          unless pursuant to a fiduciary obligation under Section 4(b), (A) cease and cause to be terminated any ongoing solicitation, discussions and negotiations with respect to any alternative plan that is not
        consistent with the Plan Treatment; (B) not, directly or indirectly, seek, solicit, negotiate, support, engage in or initiate discussions relating to, or enter into any agreements relating to any alternative plan that is not consistent with the
        Plan Treatment; (C) not solicit or direct any person or entity, including any of its representatives or members of the Company’s board of directors (or equivalent) or any direct or indirect holders of existing equity securities of the Company, to
        undertake any of the foregoing;

    

    

    (vi)           use reasonable best efforts to obtain the consent, or the waiver of lack of consent as a defense, of the Company’s insurance carriers for the policy years 2017 and 2018 in a timely manner and in no event
        later than the date the Debtors commence solicitation of votes on the Debtor Plan; and

    

    

    (c)            Fiduciary Duty Obligations.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, nothing in this Agreement shall require
        the board of directors, or any such similar governing body of any Company entity to take any action, or to refrain from taking any action, with respect to the Debtor Plan or any contemplated restructuring transactions to the extent such board of
        directors or other such similar governing body determines that taking such action, or refraining from taking such action, as applicable, is required to comply with applicable law or would be inconsistent with the exercise of its fiduciary duties
        under applicable law.

    

    

    5.            Termination of Agreement.

    

    

    (a)         Automatic Termination.  Unless waived or modified by agreement between the Parties, this Agreement shall terminate
        automatically, without any further action required by any Party (i) upon the occurrence of the Effective Date and the receipt of the Settlement Payment by the law firm of Baron & Budd’s Trust Account or (ii) upon the effective date of a plan of
        reorganization in the Chapter 11 Cases confirmed by the Bankruptcy Court other than the Debtor Plan, without affecting any obligations that the Supporting Public Entities have with respect to said non-Debtor plan of reorganization under this
        Agreement.

    

    

    (b)          Mutual Termination.  This Agreement may be terminated by mutual agreement of the Parties upon the receipt of written
        notice delivered in accordance with Section 19 hereof.

    

    

    (c)          General Termination Events.  The Agreement may be terminated by either Party, by the delivery to the other Party of a
        written notice in accordance with Section 19 hereof, upon the occurrence and continuation of any of the following events:

    

    

    (i)            the issuance by any governmental authority, including any regulatory authority or court of competent jurisdiction, of any ruling, judgment or order enjoining the consummation of or rendering illegal the
        Debtor Plan, and either (A) such ruling, judgment or

    

    

    
      10

      
        

    

    

    

    

    

    order has been issued at the request of or with the acquiescence of the Company, or (B) in all other circumstances, such ruling, judgment or order
        has not been stayed, reversed or vacated within 90 calendar days after such issuance; or

    

    

    (ii)            the Bankruptcy Court enters an order (A) converting any of the Chapter 11 Cases to cases under chapter 7 of the Bankruptcy Code or (B) dismissing any of the Chapter 11 Cases.

    

    

    (d)         Supporting Public Entities Termination Event. This Agreement may be terminated by the Supporting Public Entities, or any
        one of them individually (as to itself only, in which event the Settlement Payment will be correspondingly reduced in accordance with the allocations as set forth in Exhibit
            A), by the delivery to the Company and the other Supporting Public Entities of a written notice in accordance with Section 19 hereof by the
        Supporting Public Entities, if:

    

    

    (i)            the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) or the California Office of Emergency Services (COES) fail to agree in writing that no reimbursement is required from the Supporting
        Public Entities on account of any assistance rendered by either agency in connection with the Fires from the Settlement Payment to be paid by the Debtors to the Supporting Public Entities under the Debtor Plan as provided in Section 2(b)(i) hereof,
        and that the Supporting Public Entities are released from any obligation to pursue any of the claims held by FEMA or COES against the Company; or

    

    

    (ii)         the Debtors file with the Bankruptcy Court a Debtor Plan that provides for any Settlement Payment to the Supporting Public Entities in a collective total amount less than $415 million,
        the Bankruptcy Court modifies any filed Debtor Plan so as to provide for any settlement payment to the Supporting Public Entities in a collective total amount less than $415 million or such Debtor Plan is otherwise materially inconsistent with the
        Plan Treatment; or

    

    

    (iii)      the Company breaches or otherwise fails to perform, in any material respect, any of the representations, warranties, agreements, or covenants of the Company set forth in this
        Agreement, which breach or failure remains uncured upon the earlier of: (A) five days prior to the Effective Date of the Debtor Plan, or (B) the expiration of 15 days after the receipt by the Company from the Supporting Public Entities of written
        notice of such breach or failure to perform; or

    

    

    (iv)      with respect to any individual Supporting Public Entity, prior to the expiration of the time period for notices of claims to be timely filed against that Supporting Public Entity, a
        material amount of Third Party Claims (materiality being determined with respect to the circumstances of the particular Supporting Public Entity) have been noticed against such individual Supporting Public

    

    

    
      11

      
        

    

    

    

    

    

    Entity and (a) the Debtors file with the Bankruptcy Court a Debtor Plan that does not provide for a release of all Third Party
        Claims against that Supporting Public Entity or (b) the Bankruptcy Court rules that it will not approve a release of all Third Party Claims against such Supporting Public Entity.  Under the circumstances described in subpart (b) of the preceding
        sentence in which the Court rules that it will not approve a release of all Third Party Claims against such Supporting Public Entity and that Supporting Public Entity exercises its right to terminate this Agreement under this Section 5(d)(iv), the
        Supporting Public Entity shall have the right to revoke its vote in favor of the Debtor Plan and file an opposition to the plan should they so choose.  For purposes hereof, Third Party Claims shall mean any and all past, present or future claims
        against the Supporting Public Entities in any way relating to the Fires held by entities or individuals other than the Debtors or the Plan Support Public Entities, including but not limited to claims by individual plaintiffs or subrogated insurance
        carriers against the Supporting Public Entities for personal injuries, property damage, reimbursement of insurance payments and/or wrongful death relating in any way to the Fires.

    

    

    (e)          This Agreement may be terminated by the Company, by the delivery to the Supporting Public Entities of a written notice in accordance with Section 19 hereof by the Company upon a Company Termination Event.

    

    

    A “Company Termination Event” shall mean any
        of the following:

    

    

    (i)            the failure to obtain the consent, or the waiver of lack of consent as a defense, of the Company’s insurance carriers for the policy years 2017 and 2018;

    

    

    (ii)        the breach in any material respect by the Supporting Public Entities of any of the representations, warranties or covenants of the Supporting Public Entities set forth in this Agreement, which breach
        remains uncured for a period of 15 days after the receipt by the Supporting Public Entities from the Company of written notice of such breach;

    

    

    (iii)      the board of directors, managers, or similar governing body, as applicable, of any Company entity determines in good faith that continued performance under this Agreement would be inconsistent with the
        exercise of its fiduciary duties under applicable law; or

    

    

    (iv)        the termination of any Public Entity PSA between the Company and any Plan Support Public Entity for any reason and by any entity pursuant to the terms of that Public Entity PSA.  For the avoidance of
        doubt, in the event that any individual Plan Support Public Entity terminates their Public Entity PSA just as to itself, the Company shall have the right pursuant to this provision to terminate all Public Entity PSAs.

    

    

    (f)            Effect of Termination.  Upon the termination of this Agreement in accordance with this Section 5, and except as provided in Section 13 hereof, this Agreement shall forthwith become void and of no
        further force or effect and each Party shall, except as provided

    

    

    
      12

      
        

    

    

    

    

    

    otherwise in this Agreement, be immediately released from its liabilities, obligations, commitments, undertakings and agreements under or related to
        this Agreement and shall have all the rights and remedies that it would have had and shall be entitled to take all actions, whether with respect to the Debtor Plan and contemplated restructuring or otherwise, that it would have been entitled to
        take had it not entered into this Agreement; provided, however, that in no
        event shall any such termination relieve a Party from liability for its breach or non-performance of its obligations hereunder prior to the date of such termination.  Upon any such termination of this Agreement, the Supporting Public Entities may,
        upon written notice to the Company and the other Parties, revoke their vote or any consents given prior to such termination, whereupon any such vote or consent shall be deemed, for all purposes, to be null and void ab initio and shall not be considered or otherwise used in any manner by the Parties in connection with the Debtor Plan and contemplated restructuring and this Agreement. 
        Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the Supporting Public Entities shall not have a right to terminate this Agreement if a default or failure (including by action, inaction or misrepresentation) by the Supporting Public Entities of
        their obligations, undertakings, representations, warranties, or covenants hereunder is the cause, directly or indirectly, of the event giving rise to the right to terminate.

    

    

    6.            Good Faith Cooperation; Further Assurances.

    

    

    Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, each of the Parties shall take such action as may be reasonably necessary or
        reasonably requested by the other Party to carry out the purposes and intent of this Agreement.

    

    

    7.            Representations and Warranties.

    

    

    Each Party represents and warrants to the other Party that the following statements are true, correct and complete as of the date
        hereof:

    

    

    (a)         such Party has the corporate, governmental entity, or similar authority to enter into this Agreement and carry out the transactions contemplated hereby and perform its obligations contemplated hereunder,
        subject, in the case of the Debtors, to any requisite approval of the Bankruptcy Court; and the execution and delivery of this Agreement and the performance of such Party’s obligations hereunder have been duly authorized;

    

    

    (b)          the execution, delivery, and performance by such Party of this Agreement does not and will not (A) violate any provision of law, rule or regulation applicable to it or any of its subsidiaries or its
        charter or bylaws (or other similar organization, constitutive or other governing documents) or those of any of its subsidiaries, or (B) conflict with, result in a breach of or constitute (with due notice or lapse of time or both) a default under
        any material contractual obligation to which it or any of its subsidiaries is a party;

    

    

    (c)            the execution, delivery, and performance by such Party of this Agreement does not and will not require any registration or filing with, consent or approval of, or notice to, or other action, with or by,
        any federal, state, or governmental authority or regulatory body, except such filings as may be necessary and/or required by the SEC and, in the case of the Debtors, any requisite approval of the Bankruptcy Court; and

    

    

    
      13

      
        

    

    

    

    

    

    (d)        this Agreement is the legally valid and binding obligation of such Party, enforceable against it in accordance with its terms, subject, in the case of the Debtors, to any requisite approval of the
        Bankruptcy Court.

    

    

    The Supporting Public Entities further represent and warrant to the Company that they (A)(i) are the owners of all the Supporting
        Public Entities’ Claims, including the Wildfire Claims, and, prior to the date hereof, have made no assignment, sale, participation, grant, conveyance, pledge or other Transfer of any such Claims to any person that is not a party to this Agreement
        and have not entered into any other agreement to assign, sell participate, grant, convey, pledge, or otherwise transfer, in whole or in part, any portion of their right, title, or interests in any of the Claims that are inconsistent or conflict
        with the representations, warranties of such Supporting Public Entities herein or that would render them otherwise unable to comply with this Agreement and perform their obligations hereunder, either generally or with respect to any specific
        Claims, (ii) have the sole investment or voting discretion with respect to such Claims, (iii) have the full power and authority to vote on, and take action with respect to, and consent to matters concerning such Claims, or exchange or Transfer such
        Claims, (iv) have the full power and authority to bind or act on behalf of the beneficial owners of such Claims, if any and (v) do not own any other Claims and (B) other than pursuant to this Agreement, such Claims are free and clear of any pledge,
        lien, security interest, charge, claim, equity, option, proxy, voting restriction, or other limitation on disposition or encumbrance of any kind that would prevent in any way the Supporting Public Entities’ performance of their obligations
        hereunder as of the date hereof and at the time such obligations are required to be performed.

    

    

    8.            Mediation Communications Privilege and Confidentiality.

    

    

    Any and all communications, information, and/or documents related and leading up to, including during any and all parts of a
        mediation and/or settlement negotiation process, including the preparation of this Agreement, are confidential, and will not be disclosed to any third-party without the prior written consent of the Parties, except (a) to enforce any term of this
        Agreement, (b) to the extent required to be disclosed in mandatory filings with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, (c) to the extent required or necessary to receive legal, tax or accounting advice, (d) as otherwise required by law, (e)
        to the extent required to be disclosed in mandatory filings with the U.S. Internal Revenue Service; (f) to the extent such terms have already been publicly disclosed as permitted by this paragraph; and (g) as required to effectuate the covenants of
        the Parties herein in connection with the Chapter 11 Cases (including in any Definitive Document).  Prior to any Party’s initial public disclosure of confidential information or communications pursuant to this paragraph, that Party shall permit the
        other Party to review a draft of such initial public disclosure and shall in good faith consider any edits proposed by the other Party.  The Parties also agree that they shall not take the position in any public communication that the amount of the
        Settlement Payment or the Plan Treatment are not a reasonable amount to fully liquidate, settle and resolve all the Plan Support Public Entities’ Wildfire Claims in a confirmed plan.

        writing signed by the Company and the Supporting Public Entities.

    

    

    10.         Effectiveness.

    

    

    This Agreement shall become effective and binding on the Parties, to the fullest extent permissible under applicable
        law, on the Plan Support Effective Date, and not before such date.

    

    

    11.         Governing Law; Jurisdiction; Jury Trial and Section 1542 Waivers.

    

    

    (a)            This Agreement shall be construed and enforced in accordance with, and the rights of the parties shall be governed by, the law of the State of California and applicable federal law, without giving effect
        to the conflicts of law principles thereof.

    

    

    (b)            Each Party irrevocably agrees that any legal action, suit or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement brought by any party or its successors or assigns shall be brought and determined in
        the Bankruptcy Court and each Party hereby irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of the Bankruptcy Court and, if the Bankruptcy Court does not have (or abstains from) jurisdiction, Courts of the State of California and of the United
        States District Court of the Northern District of California, and any appellate court from any thereof, for itself and with respect to its property, generally and unconditionally, with regard to any such proceeding arising out of or relating to
        this Agreement.  Each Party further agrees that notice as provided herein shall constitute sufficient service of process and the Parties further waive any argument that such service is insufficient.  Each Party hereby irrevocably and
        unconditionally waives, and agrees not to assert, by way of motion or as a defense, counterclaim or otherwise, in any proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement, (i) any claim that it is not personally subject to the jurisdiction of
        the Bankruptcy Court as described herein for any reason, (ii) that it or its property is exempt or immune from jurisdiction of such court or from any legal process commenced in such court (whether through service of notice, attachment prior to

        AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY (WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT OR ANY OTHER THEORY).  EACH PARTY (I) CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PARTY HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER
        PARTY WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER AND (II) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT AND THE OTHER PARTIES

    

    

    
      15

    A GENERAL RELEASE DOES NOT EXTEND TO CLAIMS THAT THE CREDITOR OR RELEASING PARTY DOES NOT KNOW OR SUSPECT TO EXIST IN HIS OR HER
        FAVOR AT THE TIME OF EXECUTING THE RELEASE AND THAT, IF KNOWN BY HIM OR HER, WOULD HAVE MATERIALLY AFFECTED HIS OR HER SETTLEMENT WITH THE DEBTOR OR RELEASED PARTY.

    

    

    12.         Specific Performance/Remedies.

    

    

    It is understood and agreed by the Parties that money damages would not be a sufficient remedy for any breach of this Agreement
        by a Party and the non-breaching Party shall be entitled to specific performance and injunctive or other equitable relief (including attorneys’ fees and costs) as a remedy of any such breach, without the necessity of proving the inadequacy of money
        damages as a remedy (or the posting of any bond), including an order of the Bankruptcy Court requiring any Party to comply promptly with any of its obligations hereunder.

    

    

    13.         Survival.

    

    

    Notwithstanding the termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 5 hereof, the agreements and obligations of the Parties set forth in the following Sections: 5(f), 7, 8, 11, 12, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, and 21 hereof (and any defined terms used in any such Sections) shall
        survive such termination and shall continue in full force and effect in accordance with the terms hereof; provided, however, that any liability of a Party for failure to comply with the terms of this Agreement shall survive such termination.

    

    

    14.         Headings.

    

    

    The headings of the sections, paragraphs and subsections of this Agreement are inserted for convenience only and shall not affect
        the interpretation hereof or, for any purpose, be deemed a part of this Agreement.

        contemplated hereby.  Accordingly, any rule of law or any legal decision that would provide any Party with a defense to the enforcement of the terms of this Agreement against such Party based upon lack of legal counsel shall have no application and
        is expressly waived.

    

    

    (d)            Each Party hereby confirms that its decision to execute this Agreement has been based upon its independent investigation of the relevant Claims and the operations, businesses, financial and other

                  Agreements of the Company.

                

          

          

          
                                       (a)            Filing of Supporting Public Entity’s Claims.  Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Supporting Public
                Entity, in order to protect its rights if this Agreement is terminated, may file timely proofs of claim in the Chapter 11 Cases in any amount the Supporting Public Entity deems appropriate evidencing any and all Claims it may have against
                the Debtors, including but not limited to the Wildfire Claims; provided, however, the Debtors shall not object to, seek any setoff with respect to, dispute the amount of, or otherwise contest any Wildfire Claim submitted by the
              Supporting Public Entity during the Plan Support Period and shall affirmatively support the Plan Treatment of the Supporting Public Entity’s Wildfire Claims consistent with this Agreement; provided further that the Supporting Public Entity
              hereby acknowledges and agrees that the Settlement Payment is a reasonable amount to fully liquidate, settle and resolve all of its Wildfire Claims regardless of the Claim amount that may be asserted in such proofs of Claim and the Supporting
              Public Entity, with the exception of filing the proofs of Claim provided for in this section, will not during the Plan Support Period take any public or private position to the contrary.  For avoidance of doubt, if this Agreement is
              terminated, the Debtors may object to any proofs of claim filed by the Supporting Public Entity on any basis whatsoever. 

            

            

            (b)         Covenants.  Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, unless compliance is waived in
                writing by the Supporting Public Entity, the Company agrees that during the Plan Support Period they shall:

            

            

            (i)               prepare or cause to be prepared the Debtor Plan, Disclosure Statement and all relevant motions, applications, orders, agreements and other documents directly related
                thereto, each of which, for the avoidance of doubt, shall contain terms and conditions consistent with the Plan Treatment;

            

            

            (ii)       provide
                draft copies of the foregoing documents that the Company intends to file with the Bankruptcy Court to counsel for the Supporting Public Entity as soon as reasonably practicable prior to such documents being filed with the Bankruptcy Court,
                and to consult in good faith with counsel for the Supporting Public Entity regarding the form and substance of any of the foregoing documents in advance of the filing, execution, distribution or use (as applicable) thereof;

            

            

            (iii)            include the necessary provisions in any Debtor Plan proposed by the Debtors to effectuate the Plan Treatment and to carry out the terms of this Agreement;

            

            

            (iv)           support and take all commercially reasonable efforts to facilitate the solicitation and confirmation of the Debtor Plan, including the Plan Treatment, and take all
                reasonably necessary actions to consummate the Debtor Plan, including the Plan Treatment, and the transactions contemplated thereby;

            

            

            (v)               unless pursuant to a fiduciary obligation under Section 4(b), (A) cease and cause to
                be terminated any ongoing solicitation, discussions and negotiations with

              respect to any alternative plan that is not consistent with the Plan Treatment; (B) not, directly or indirectly,
                  seek, solicit, negotiate, support, engage in or initiate discussions relating to, or enter into any agreements relating to any alternative plan that is not consistent with the Plan Treatment; (C) not solicit or direct any person or
                  entity, including any of its representatives or members of the Company’s board of directors (or equivalent) or any direct or indirect holders of existing equity securities of the Company, to undertake any of the foregoing;

              

              

                                                     (vi)              use reasonable best efforts to obtain the consent, or the waiver of lack of consent as a defense, of the Company’s
                  insurance carriers for the policy years 2017 and 2018 in a timely manner and in no event later than the date the Debtors commence solicitation of votes on the Debtor Plan; and

            

          

        

      

      
        

        

        (c)            Fiduciary Duty Obligations.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, nothing in
            this Agreement shall require the board of directors, or any such similar governing body of any Company entity to take any action, or to refrain from taking any action, with respect to the Debtor Plan or any contemplated restructuring
            transactions to the extent such board of directors or other such similar governing body determines that taking such action, or refraining from taking such action, as applicable, is required to comply with applicable law or would be inconsistent
            with the exercise of its fiduciary duties under applicable law.

        (a)     Automatic Termination.  Unless waived or modified by agreement between the Parties, this Agreement shall terminate automatically, without any further action
            required by any Party (i) upon the occurrence of the Effective Date and the receipt of the Settlement Payment by the law firm of Baron & Budd’s Trust Account or (ii) upon the effective date of a plan of reorganization in the Chapter 11
            Cases confirmed by the Bankruptcy Court other than the Debtor Plan, without affecting any obligations that the Supporting Public Entity has with respect to said non-Debtor plan of reorganization under this Agreement.

        

        

        (b)          Mutual Termination.  This Agreement may be terminated by mutual agreement of the Parties
            upon the receipt of written notice delivered in accordance with Section 19 hereof.

        

        

        (c)            General Termination Events.  The Agreement may be terminated by either Party, by the
            delivery to the other Party of a written notice in accordance with Section 19 hereof, upon the occurrence and continuation of any of the following events:

        

        

        (i)        the
            issuance by any governmental authority, including any regulatory authority or court of competent jurisdiction, of any ruling, judgment or order enjoining the consummation of or rendering illegal the Debtor Plan, and either (A) such ruling,
            judgment or order has been issued at the request of or with the acquiescence of the Company, or (B) in all other circumstances, such ruling, judgment or order has not been stayed, reversed or vacated within 90 calendar days after such issuance;
            or

        (ii)        the
            Bankruptcy Court enters an order (A) converting any of the Chapter 11 Cases to cases under chapter 7 of the Bankruptcy Code or (B) dismissing any of the Chapter 11 Cases.

        

        

        (d)         Supporting Public Entity Termination Event. This Agreement may be terminated by the
            Supporting Public Entity by the delivery to the Company of a written notice in accordance with Section 19 hereof by the Supporting Public Entity, if:

        

        

        (i)             the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) or the California Office of Emergency Services (COES) fail to agree in writing that no reimbursement is required from the
            Supporting Public Entity on account of any assistance rendered by either agency in connection with the Fires from the Settlement Payment to be paid by the Debtors to the Supporting Public Entity under the Debtor Plan as provided in Section 2(b)(i) hereof, and that the Supporting Public Entity is released from any obligation to pursue any of the claims held by FEMA or COES against the Company;
          or

         

        

        (ii)          the Debtors file with the Bankruptcy Court a Debtor Plan that provides for any Settlement Payment to the Supporting Public Entity in a total amount less than $270 million, the Bankruptcy Court
            modifies any filed Debtor Plan so as to provide for any settlement payment to the Supporting Public Entity in a total amount less than $270 million or such Debtor Plan is otherwise materially inconsistent with the Plan Treatment; or 

         

          

      

      
           

      

      
        (iii)            the Company breaches or otherwise fails to perform, in any material respect, any of the representations, warranties, agreements, or covenants of the Company set forth in this
            Agreement, which breach or failure remains uncured upon the earlier of: (A) five days prior to the Effective Date of the Debtor Plan, or (B) the expiration of 15 days after the receipt by the Company from the Supporting Public Entity of written
            notice of such breach or failure to perform; or 

        

        

        (iv)              With respect to the Supporting Public Entity, prior to December 31, 2019, a material amount of Third Party Claims (materiality being determined with respect to the circumstances
            of the Supporting Public Entity) have been noticed against the Supporting Public Entity and (a) the Debtors file with the Bankruptcy Court a Debtor Plan that does not provide for a release of all Third Party Claims against the Supporting Public
            Entity or (b) the Bankruptcy Court rules that it will not approve a release of all Third Party Claims against the Supporting Public Entity. Under the circumstances described in subpart (b) of the preceding sentence in which the Court rules that
            it will not approve a release of all Third Party Claims against the

        Supporting Public Entity and the Supporting Public Entity exercises its right to terminate this
            Agreement under this Section 5(d)(iv), the Supporting Public Entity shall have the right to revoke its vote in favor of the Debtor Plan and file an opposition to the plan should it so choose.  For
            purposes hereof, Third Party Claims shall mean any and all past, present or future claims against the Supporting Public Entity in any way relating to the Fires held by entities or individuals other than the Debtors or the Plan Support Public
            Entities, including but not limited to claims by individual plaintiffs or subrogated insurance carriers against the Supporting Public Entity for personal injuries, property damage, reimbursement of insurance payments and/or wrongful death
            relating in any way to the Fires.

        

        

      

      
        (e)            This Agreement may be terminated by the Company, by the delivery to the Supporting Public Entity of a written notice in accordance with Section 19 hereof by the Company upon a Company Termination Event.

        

        

        A “Company Termination Event” shall mean any of
          the following:

        

        

        (i)                the failure to obtain the consent, or the waiver of lack of consent as a defense, of the Company’s insurance carriers for the policy years 2017 and 2018;

        

        

        (ii)              the breach in any material respect by the Supporting Public Entity of any of the representations, warranties or covenants of the Supporting Public Entity set forth in this
            Agreement, which breach remains uncured for a period of 15 days after the receipt by the Supporting Public Entity from the Company of written notice of such breach;

        

        

        (iii)         the board of directors, managers, or similar governing body, as applicable, of any Company entity determines in good faith that continued performance under this Agreement would
            be inconsistent with the exercise of its fiduciary duties under applicable law; or

        

        

        (iv)            the termination of any Public Entity PSA between the Company and any Plan Support Public Entity for any reason and by any entity pursuant to the terms of that Public Entity
            PSA.  For the avoidance of doubt, in the event that any individual Plan Support Public Entity terminates their Public Entity PSA just as to itself, the Company shall have the right pursuant to this provision to terminate all Public Entity PSAs.

        

        

        (f)            Effect of Termination.  Upon the termination of this Agreement in accordance with this Section 5, and except as provided in Section 13 hereof, this Agreement shall forthwith become
            void and of no further force or effect and each Party shall, except as provided otherwise in this Agreement, be immediately released from its liabilities, obligations, commitments, undertakings and agreements under or related to this Agreement
            and shall have all the rights and remedies that it would have had and shall be entitled to take all actions, whether with respect to the Debtor Plan and contemplated restructuring or otherwise, that it would have been entitled to take had it
            not entered into this Agreement; provided, however, that in no event shall any such
            termination relieve a Party from liability for its breach or non-performance of its

         

          

      

      
        12

        
          

      

       

         obligations hereunder prior to the date of such termination.  Upon any such termination of this Agreement, the Supporting
            Public Entity may, upon written notice to the Company and the other Parties, revoke its vote or any consents given prior to such termination, whereupon any such vote or consent shall be deemed, for all purposes, to be null and void ab initio and shall not be considered or otherwise used in any manner by the Parties in connection with the Debtor Plan and contemplated restructuring and this Agreement.  Notwithstanding anything to the
            contrary herein, the Supporting Public Entity shall not have a right to terminate this Agreement if a default or failure (including by action, inaction or misrepresentation) by the Supporting Public Entity of its obligations, undertakings,
            representations, warranties, or covenants hereunder is the cause, directly or indirectly, of the event giving rise to the right to terminate.

            its subsidiaries or its charter or bylaws (or other similar organization, constitutive or other governing documents) or those of any of its subsidiaries, or (B) conflict with, result in a breach of or constitute (with due notice or lapse of
            time or both) a default under any material contractual obligation to which it or any of its subsidiaries is a party;

        

        

        (c)         the execution, delivery, and performance by such Party of this Agreement does not and will not require any registration or filing with, consent or approval of, or notice to, or
            other action, with or by, any federal, state, or governmental authority or regulatory body, except such filings as may be necessary and/or required by the SEC and, in the case of the Debtors, any requisite approval of the Bankruptcy Court; and

        

        

        (d)         this Agreement is the legally valid and binding obligation of such Party, enforceable against it in accordance with its terms, subject, in the case of the Debtors, to any

        (a)            This Agreement shall be construed and enforced in accordance with, and the rights of the parties shall be governed by, the law of the State of California and applicable federal law,
            without giving effect to the conflicts of law principles thereof.

        

        

        (b)            Each Party irrevocably agrees that any legal action, suit or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement brought by any party or its successors or assigns shall be
            brought and determined in the Bankruptcy Court and each Party hereby irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of the Bankruptcy Court and, if the Bankruptcy Court does not have (or abstains from) jurisdiction, Courts of the State of
            California and of the United States District Court of the Northern District of California, and any appellate court from any thereof, for itself and with respect to its property, generally and unconditionally, with regard to any such
          proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement.  Each Party further agrees that notice as provided herein shall constitute sufficient service of process and the Parties further waive any argument that such service is insufficient.  Each
          Party hereby irrevocably and unconditionally waives, and agrees not to assert, by way of motion or as a defense, counterclaim or otherwise, in any proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement, (i) any claim that it is not personally
          subject to the jurisdiction of the Bankruptcy Court as described herein for any reason, (ii) that it or its property is exempt or immune from jurisdiction of such court or from any legal process commenced in such court (whether through service of
          notice, attachment prior to judgment, attachment in aid of execution of judgment, execution of judgment or otherwise) and (iii) that (A) the proceeding in such court is brought in an inconvenient forum, (B) the venue of such proceeding is
          improper or (C) this Agreement, or the subject matter hereof, may not be enforced in or by such court. 

      

      
        

        

        (c)           EACH PARTY HEREBY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF OR
            RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY (WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT OR ANY OTHER THEORY).  EACH PARTY (I) CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PARTY HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR
            OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PARTY WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER AND (II) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT AND THE OTHER PARTIES HAVE BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL
            WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION.

        

        

        (d)            IN CONNECTION WITH THE PLAN RELEASE, THE PUBLIC ENTITY RELEASING PARTIES ACKNOWLEDGE THAT THEY HAVE BEEN ADVISED BY THEIR ATTORNEYS CONCERNING, AND ARE FAMILIAR WITH, CALIFORNIA CIVIL

            WAIVE ANY AND ALL RIGHTS AND BENEFITS THEY MAY HAVE UNDER CALIFORNIA CIVIL CODE §1542, AS WELL AS UNDER ANY OTHER STATE OR FEDERAL STATUTE OR COMMON LAW PRINCIPLE OF SIMILAR EFFECT.  CALIFORNIA CIVIL CODE §1542 PROVIDES:

        

        

        A GENERAL RELEASE DOES NOT EXTEND TO CLAIMS THAT THE CREDITOR OR RELEASING PARTY DOES NOT KNOW OR SUSPECT TO
            EXIST IN HIS OR HER FAVOR AT THE TIME OF EXECUTING THE RELEASE AND THAT, IF KNOWN BY HIM OR HER, WOULD HAVE MATERIALLY AFFECTED HIS OR HER SETTLEMENT WITH THE DEBTOR OR RELEASED PARTY.

                Specific Performance/Remedies.

              

        

        

        It is understood and agreed by the Parties that money damages would not be a sufficient remedy for any
            breach of this Agreement by a Party and the non-breaching Party shall be entitled to specific performance and injunctive or other equitable relief (including attorneys’ fees and costs) as a remedy of any such breach, without the
          necessity of proving the inadequacy of money damages as a remedy (or the posting of any bond), including an order of the Bankruptcy Court requiring any Party to comply promptly with any of its obligations hereunder.

                Survival.

              

        

        

        Notwithstanding the termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 5 hereof, the agreements and obligations of the Parties set forth in the following Sections: 5(f), 7, 8, 11, 12, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, and 21 hereof (and any defined terms used in any such Sections)
            shall survive such termination and shall continue in full force and effect in accordance with the terms hereof; provided, however, that any liability of a Party for failure to comply with the terms of this Agreement shall survive such termination.

                        Several Obligations.

              

        

        

        This Agreement is intended to bind and inure to the benefit of the Parties and their respective
            successors, permitted assigns, heirs, executors, administrators and representatives; provided, however, that nothing contained in this Section 15 shall be deemed to permit Transfers of the Supporting Public Entity’s
            Claims.  If any provision of this Agreement, or the application of any such provision to any person or entity or circumstance, shall be held invalid or unenforceable in whole or in part, such invalidity or unenforceability shall attach only to
            such provision or part thereof and the remaining part of such provision hereof and this Agreement shall

         

          

         

      
        16

        
          

      

       

        
        continue in full force and effect so long as the economic or legal substance of the transactions contemplated hereby is
            not affected in any manner materially adverse to any Party.  Upon any such determination of invalidity, the Parties shall negotiate in good faith to modify this Agreement so as to effect the original intent of the Parties as closely as possible
            in a reasonably acceptable manner in order that the transactions contemplated hereby are consummated as originally contemplated to the greatest extent possible.

                No Third-Party Beneficiaries.

              

        

        

        Unless expressly stated herein, this Agreement shall be solely for the benefit of the Parties and no
            other person or entity shall be a third-party beneficiary hereof.

                Prior Negotiations; Entire Agreement.

              

        

        

        This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement of the Parties, and supersedes all other prior negotiations, with
            respect to the subject matter hereof and thereof, except that the Parties acknowledge that any confidentiality agreements (if any) heretofore executed between the Company and the Supporting Public Entity shall continue in full force and effect.

        (a)            Nothing contained herein shall limit the rights of any Party to appear as a party in interest in the Chapter 11 Cases so long as such appearance is consistent with such Party’s
            obligations hereunder.

        

        

        (b)           This Agreement and the Debtor Plan are part of a proposed settlement of matters that could otherwise be the subject of litigation
            among the Parties.  Pursuant to Rule 408 of the Federal Rule of Evidence, any applicable state rules of evidence and any other applicable law, foreign or domestic, this Agreement and all negotiations relating thereto shall not be admissible
            into evidence in any proceeding other than a proceeding to enforce its terms.  This Agreement shall in no event be construed as or be deemed to be evidence of an admission or concession on the part of either Party of any claim or fault or

        (a)      
                 This Agreement is not and shall not be deemed to be a solicitation for votes in favor of the Debtor Plan in the Chapter 11 Cases.  The acceptance of the Supporting
            Public Entity with respect to the Debtor Plan will not be solicited until the Supporting Public Entity has received the Debtor Plan, the Disclosure Statement, and related ballots and solicitation materials, each as approved by the Bankruptcy
            Court.

        

        

        (b)          

          When a reference is made in this Agreement to a Section, Exhibit or Schedule, such reference shall be to a Section, Exhibit or Schedule, respectively, of or attached to this
            Agreement unless otherwise indicated. Unless the context of this Agreement otherwise requires, (a) words using the singular or plural number also include the plural or singular number, respectively, (b) the terms “hereof,” “herein,” “hereby”
            and derivative or similar words refer to this entire Agreement, (c) the words “include,” “includes,” and “including” when used herein shall be deemed in each case to be followed by the words “without limitation,” and (d) the word “or” shall not
            be exclusive and shall be read to mean “and/or.”

      

      

      

      
        (c)         

          Each Party acknowledges that it has had an opportunity to receive information from the other Party and that it has been represented by counsel in connection with this Agreement
            and the transactions contemplated hereby.  Accordingly, any rule of law or any legal decision that would provide any Party with a defense to the enforcement of the terms of this Agreement against such Party based upon lack of legal counsel
            shall have no application and is expressly waived.

         

          

        (d)        
          Each Party hereby confirms that its decision to execute this Agreement has been based upon its independent investigation of the relevant Claims and the operations, businesses,
            financial and other conditions and prospects of the Company.
