    RE:       Adjustment
Guarantee and “Piggyback” Registration Rights

    

    Dear
Winder:

    

    To
clarify ThermoEnergy Corporation’s (“TEC”) position, we agree to adjust the
conversion price and the exercise price for the “Bridge Loan”/Convertible Note
dated June 17, 2009 and the Warrant issued June 17, 2009 to the coinciding
amounts issued to The Quercus Trust if the conversion price and/or exercise
price is lesser than the amounts received by The Focus Fund.

    

    To remove
any doubt and to clarify TEC’s position, all restricted shares of common stock
that The Focus Fund has purchased directly from TEC and the underlying shares of
common stock converted from any convertible notes and from any warrant’s issued
by TEC to The Focus Fund contain “piggyback” registration
rights.  “Piggyback” registration rights mean that for any
registration statement filed by TEC during the holding period for any Rule 144
restricted common stock or for the exercise period of any warrants issued, The
Focus Fund Shares will be included in that registration filing as permitted by
SEC rules.

    

    I hope
this letter will be helpful in documenting TEC’s position.  Please
call me if you have any questions.

    

    Sincerely,

    

    
      
        	
                /s/ Andrew T. Melton

    1.3.1.
Buyer’s failure to pay, whether fully or in part, any of the installments of the

remaining amount thereof, plus the remuneration provided for in item 1.3.3.3
below, Sellers agreeing to return to Buyer the Promissory Notes (as defined
below) representing such installment against issuance and delivery by Buyer of
new promissory notes on the same terms as the Promissory Notes for a new
principal amount of the fourth installment of the Price. Buyer hereby agrees,
irrevocably and irreversibly, that there shall be no restriction as to the sale
by Sellers or any one of them of preferred shares issued by VCP and purchased

    1.3.3.4.
VCP and the Intervening Party represent and warrant to Sellers that the

shall be validly subscribed, issued and paid in, in compliance with applicable
law, irrespectively of the form adopted by VCP and Intervening Party to perform
the acts relating to the Payment in Registered Preferred Shares of VCP. In this
regard, VCP and Intervening Party agree, jointly and severally, to indemnify,
defend and hold Sellers harmless of any Loss incurred by Sellers arising out of
(i) impediment of Payment in Registered Preferred Shares of VCP, or (ii)
impediment of the full exercise of ownership of preferred shares of VCP, by
virtue of challenging the legality of subscription, paying-up, issuance and/or
the ownership right of preferred shares of VCP. Without prejudice to the
obligation of indemnification pursuant to this item, Intervening Party or VCP,
after the final characterization of the impediment of Payment in Registered
Preferred Shares of VCP or impediment to fully exercise the ownership of the
preferred shares of VCP shall, at its exclusive discretion, (a) exchange with
Sellers the same amount of preferred shares issued by VCP owned by Intervening
Party entitled to preferred shares of VCP which would be subject to Payment in
Registered Preferred Shares of VCP; or (b) pay to Sellers the full amount of the
installment of the Price mentioned in item 1.3(d), on the respective payment
date, plus the remuneration established in item 1.3.3.3(A) and Sellers, in such
case, shall grant the right to preferred shares of VCP subject to Payment in
Registered Preferred Shares of VCP. The right of indemnification pursuant to
this item is personal and exclusive to Sellers and the respective causa mortis successors and
is limited to the statute of limitations of corporate law.

    

    1.4. On
the Closing Date Buyer shall make the payment of the first installment of the
Price mentioned in item 1.3(a) above and shall deliver the pro solvendo promissory notes
linked to this Agreement, issued by VCP and to the order of each one of Sellers,

payment dates established in items 1.3(b) to 1.3(f) above for the installments
of the Price, according to the draft included in Exhibit
1.4 hereof (“Promissory
Notes”).

    
      
         

      

      
         

        
          

        

      

      
         

      

    

    

    1.4.1.
Sellers hereby agree that the transfer of the Promissory Notes is authorized
only between Sellers, including their causa mortis successors,
irrespectively of any declaration and/or agreement of Buyer, Sellers being also
assured the possibility to submit the Promissory Notes in guarantee to third
parties, provided that such third parties are fully aware of the prohibition to
transfer the Promissory Notes. The restriction to transmission, under no
circumstance, shall harm or withdraw from the Promissory Notes their other
characteristics of negotiable instrument.

    

    1.5. The
installments of the Price shall be paid by Buyer to Sellers on the respective
dates of maturity as provided for in item 1.3 above, in immediately available
funds, and Buyer shall not make any withholdings (except by virtue of the law
and/or item 4.2.1.1 below), through Electronic Transfer of Funds (“TED”) of the funds to
the respective current accounts in Brazil indicated by Sellers in mails
delivered to Buyer at least three (3) business days before the Closing Date. Any
of the Sellers may change, at any time, the current accounts in Brazil indicated
for payment of the installments of the Price provided that they notify Buyer at
least two (2) business days in advance of any payment due pursuant to this
Agreement.

    

    1.5.1.
Receipt of payment of the installments of the Price by Sellers through TED shall
imply release to Buyer and/or VCP, as the case may be, of payment of the
respective installment of the Price, and the evidence of payment of TED shall be
a receipt for all purposes.

    

    1.5.2.
Upon evidence of the full and definitive payment of each installment of the
Price, Sellers agree to return to VCP the Promissory Notes corresponding to the
installment of the Price actually paid, which shall be cancelled ipso jure, failing to produce
thereafter any effects between the Parties.

    

    1.5.3. In
case of loss by any of Sellers of their Promissory Notes, the loss shall be
informed in writing to VCP and Seller shall be liable before VCP should any
third party demand payment based on the lost Promissory Note. In such case,
Buyer may not withhold, delay or fail to pay the corresponding installment of
the Price.

    

    1.6.
Buyer hereby agrees, irrevocably and irreversibly, to fully bear the costs and
expenses relating to any legal or extrajudicial proceeding, including fees of
counsel, necessary for collection by Sellers of the amounts due by Buyer based
on this Agreement and on the Promissory Notes.

    

    1.7.

    4.1.2.
For the avoidance of doubt, Sellers shall not be liable for and shall not
indemnify Buyer (and its successors) for any Loss or claim related to the
Company at any time and on any account.

     

    4.2. If
Buyer is informed of any omission, act or fact giving rise to the indemnity
obligation, Buyer shall notify Sellers within the lesser of five (5) business
days from the date on which such information comes to the knowledge of Buyer or
1/3 of the term provided by law for pronouncing on the claim or obligation, in
order to allow Sellers to elect whether to challenge the debt or obligation
claimed in the notice within the lesser of five (5) business days from receiving
the notice from Buyer or 1/3 of the term provided by law for pronouncing on the
claim or obligation.

     

    4.2.1. If
the event provided for in item 4.2. above occurs before the full payment of the
Price by Buyer, the following shall apply:

     

     4.2.1.1.
If Sellers elect not to challenge the debt or obligation, the Parties hereby
irrevocably and irreversibly agree that Buyer shall (i) pay the debt in full or
perform the obligation within the term provided for by the law and (ii) discount
the amount of the debt or obligation from the portion of the Price due to
Sellers, beginning by the last installment, and Buyer shall deliver any balance,
if any, to Sellers, on the date scheduled for the payment of the last
installment of the Price, pursuant to item 1.3(f) above. If the amount of the
debt or obligation exceeds the amount of the last installment of the Price due
to Sellers, Buyer shall discount the exceeding amount from the portion due to
Sellers of the immediately preceding installment of the Price, and so on
successively.

    
      
         

      

      
         

        
          

        

      

      
         

      

    

     

    4.2.1.2.
If Sellers elect to challenge the debt or obligation, the Parties hereby
irrevocably and irreversibly agree that (i) Buyer shall fully bear, at its own
expenses, with the costs arising from the challenge by Sellers to the debt or
obligation claimed in the judicial and/or extrajudicial notice, including all
expenses and fees of attorneys and consultants appointed by Sellers and
providing guarantees as may be necessary for the defense, (ii) Buyer shall not
be entitled to make any judicial and/or extrajudicial agreement to settle the
debt or obligation under the notice, unless with the prior written authorization
of Sellers, and (iii) (a) if Sellers are not successful in their challenging the
debt or obligation, Buyer shall be fully reimbursed according to the provisions
of item 4.2.1.1(ii) above; or (b) if Sellers are successful in their challenging
the debt or obligation, no reimbursement of any nature shall be payable to
Buyer. Sellers shall be entitled to follow up on the conduction of the defense
of any debt or obligation, including to be informed on the developments of said
proceeding, be allowed access to copies and documents and be provided with any
other information reasonably requested by them in writing.

     

    4.2.1.3.
In the event of item 4.2.1 above, Buyer hereby irrevocably and irreversibly
agree that Buyer may not retain, delay, fail to pay, discount or otherwise
dispose of installments not yet due of the Price, which shall remain to be
payable to Sellers in the amount and terms provided for in this Agreement,
except any reimbursements as provided for in items 4.2.1.1 e 4.2.1.2
above.

     

     4.2.1.4.
If any reimbursement shall be made to Buyer according to items 4.2.1.1 and
4.2.1.2 above, Sellers agree to return to Buyer the Promissory Notes
representing the installments not paid yet which shall be subject to discount,
and VCP shall, simultaneously with such return, issue new Promissory Notes to
Sellers, in the same number and with the same characteristics of the Promissory
Notes returned, discounting the amounts agreed under said items. Except as
provided for in item 1.5.3 above, if by any reason the Promissory Notes shall
not have been returned to Buyer on the date of payment of the installment which
shall be granted abatement, Sellers acknowledge that Buyer shall be entitled,
without any penalty or indemnity obligation, to retain the payment exclusively
of the Seller whose Promissory Note has not been returned, until said Promissory
Note is returned and cancelled.

     

    4.2.2. If
the event provided for in item 4.2 above occurs after the full payment of the
Price by Buyer, the following shall apply:

     

    4.2.2.1.
If Sellers elect not to challenge the debt or obligation, they shall, within the
term provided by law for the settlement of the debt or performance of the
obligation, settle the debt or perform the obligation, or, yet, in the event
Buyer may not have settled the debt or performed the obligation, reimburse Buyer
for the amount of said debt or obligation, plus the due additions provided for
by the law or contract.

     

    4.2.2.2.
If Sellers elect to challenge the debt or obligation, Sellers, at their own
expenses, shall bear the costs related to their judicial and/or extrajudicial
challenging, including all expenses and fees of attorneys and consultants.
Sellers, upon request, shall provide the guarantees necessary for the defense,
so that Buyer shall not, at any time, make any disbursement or sustain any
constraint to its assets or limitation of any nature to its business or
operations. Buyer, in turn, shall grant power of attorney to the attorneys
appointed by Sellers as well as cooperate with these attorneys to produce
evidences as necessary for an efficient defense against the third party
claim.

     

    4.2.2.3.
In the events provided for in 4.2.2.1 and 4.2.2.2 above, if Sellers, as duly
notified according to item 4.2 above, fail to directly pay the debt or indemnify
Buyer against the amount due, omit, confess, or fails to take the measures
necessary to challenge the notified debt, requirement or claim and to the
defense of Buyer, and Buyer sustains any constraint on its assets or limitation
of any nature to its business or operations as a result thereof, Buyer itself
shall be entitled to pay the claimed debt and shall become creditor of Sellers
in respect to said amount. A penalty of ten per cent (10%) shall accrue on the
amount due by Sellers, plus interests calculated on pro rata die basis at Selic
Rate. This clear legal credit right shall be evidenced upon the submission of
the receipt of payment of the payable debt, which, for all purposes and legal
effects, shall operate as an extrajudicial execution
instrument.

valid and effective for a period of five (5) years, except for the
representations set forth in items 3.1.1., 3.1.2. and 3.1.3. above in respect to
which the indemnity obligation shall remain valid and effective until the
expiration of said obligation (collectively “Liability Period”).
In the event of any existing debt, requirement or claim against Buyer which
constitutes a Loss and about which notice or service of process has already been
served on Buyer and/or Sellers before the expiration of the Liability Period,
the indemnity obligation of Sellers shall survive until the actual payment,
settlement and/or reimbursement of the obligation related to the debt,
requirement or claim against Buyer.

     

    4.3.
Sellers’ obligation to indemnify Buyer under item 4.1. is subject to the total
limit of two billion and seven hundred and ten million Reais (R$ 2,710,000,000.00),
subject, however, to their respective interest in the Company’s
Shares.

     

    4.4.
After the Closing Date, Buyer (and its successors) shall indemnify, defend and
hold Sellers harmless from and against any Loss incurred by Sellers arising
from:

     

    (a)

representation or warrant provided by Buyer under Section III
hereof;

     

    (b)
breach by Buyer of its obligations under this Agreement;

     

    (c)
breach by Buyer of any obligation under law or which may be awarded against
Sellers for Buyer’s action or failure to act as regards market regulatory

securities market;

     

    (d)
transaction of the Company with derivative instruments in any jurisdiction,
including upon retaining and maintaining legal advisory services, as the case
may be, at the expenses of the Buyer; and

     

    (e) item
1.3.3.4. above, in this case jointly with Intervening Party.

applicable to Buyer as regards the indemnity obligation under item 4.4 above.
The Liability Period, in relation to Buyer, shall be equal to the statute of
limitations of said obligation.

     

    4.5. The
Parties hereby agree that, in the event of death of one Seller, the causa mortis successor of the
deceased Seller shall appoint the successor for the obligation of the deceased
Seller under item 4.1, and the successor to be appointed to substitute the
deceased Seller shall be reasonably acceptable to Buyer within fifteen (15) days
from appointment, provided that the silent of Buyer on this matter shall be
deemed as acceptance of the successor appointed. Until the acceptance by Buyer
of the successor of the deceased Seller takes effect, the causa mortis successors of
the deceased Sellers shall be jointly liable for the deceased Seller’s indemnity
obligation under item 4.1.

connection with the finding of facts for any petition or motion that may be

request and provide such other additional information as may be requested. Buyer

have the transaction approved by CADE, without any loss or damage to
Sellers.
