Exhibit S – 4
Permitted Transferee. For purposes of the foregoing, CPA is entitled to assume that any such purported exercise of rights by Collateral Agent that results in a Replacement Owner is in accordance with the Financing Documents without independent investigation thereof but shall have the right to require that the Collateral Agent and its designee (if applicable) provide reasonable evidence demonstrating the same. Notwithstanding the execution and delivery of a Replacement PPA, to the extent CPA is, or was otherwise prior to its termination as described in this Section 1.5, entitled under the PPA, CPA may suspend performance of its obligations under such Replacement PPA, unless and until all PPA Defaults of Project Company under the PPA or Replacement PPA have been cured.

1.6 Transfer.

Subject to Section 1.7, a Substitute Owner or a Replacement Owner may assign all of its interest in the Facility and the PPA and a Replacement PPA to a natural person, corporation, trust, business trust, joint venture, joint stock company, association, company, limited liability company, partnership, Governmental Authority or other entity (a “Person”) to which the Facility is transferred; provided, the proposed transferee shall have demonstrated to CPA’s reasonable satisfaction that such proposed transferee satisfies the requirements of a Permitted Transferee.

1.7 Assumption of Obligations.
(a) Transferee.

Any transferee under Section 1.6 shall expressly assume in a writing reasonably satisfactory to CPA all of the obligations of Project Company, Substitute Owner or Replacement Owner under the PPA or Replacement PPA, as applicable, including posting and collateral assignment of the PPA Collateral. Upon such assignment and the cure of any outstanding PPA Default, and payment of all other amounts due and payable to CPA in respect of the PPA or such Replacement PPA, the transferor shall be released from any further liability under the PPA or Replacement PPA, as applicable.
(b) Substitute Owner.

Subject to Section 1.7(c), any Substitute Owner pursuant to Section 1.4 shall be required to perform Project Company’s obligations under the PPA, including curing defaults, posting and collateral assignment of the PPA Collateral; provided, the obligations of such Substitute Owner shall be no more than those of Project Company under the PPA. (c) No Liability.

CPA acknowledges and agrees that neither Collateral Agent nor any Secured Party shall have any liability or obligation under the PPA as a result of this Consent (except to the extent Collateral Agent or a Secured Party is a Substitute Owner or Replacement Owner) nor shall Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party be obligated or required to (i) perform any of Project Company’s obligations under the PPA, except as provided in Sections 1.7(a) and 1.7(b) and to the extent Collateral Agent or a Secured Party is a Substitute Owner or Replacement Owner, or (ii) take any action to collect or enforce any claim for payment assigned under the Financing Documents. If Collateral Agent becomes a Substitute Owner pursuant to Section 1.4 or enters into a Replacement PPA, Collateral Agent shall not have any personal liability to CPA under the PPA or Replacement PPA and the sole recourse of CPA in seeking enforcement of such obligations Agenda Page 297

Exhibit S – 5
against Collateral Agent shall be to the aggregate interest of the Secured Parties in the Facility; provided, such limited recourse shall not limit CPA’s right to seek equitable or injunctive relief against Collateral Agent, or CPA’s rights with respect to any offset rights expressly allowed under the PPA, a Replacement PPA or the PPA Collateral.

1.8 Delivery of Notices.

CPA shall deliver to Collateral Agent, concurrently with the delivery thereof to Project Company, a copy of each notice, request or demand given by CPA to Project Company pursuant to the PPA relating to (a) a PPA Default by Project Company under the PPA, (b) any claim regarding Force Majeure by CPA under the PPA, (c) any notice of dispute under the PPA, (d) any notice of intent to terminate or any termination notice, and (e) any matter that would require the consent of Collateral Agent pursuant to Section 1.11 or any other provision of this Consent. Collateral Agent acknowledges that delivery of such notice, request and demand shall satisfy CPA’s obligation to give Collateral Agent a notice of PPA Default under Section 1.3. Collateral Agent shall deliver to CPA, concurrently with delivery thereof to Project Company, a copy of each notice, request or demand given by Collateral Agent to Project Company pursuant to the Financing Documents relating to a default by Project Company under the Financing Documents.

1.9 Confirmations.

CPA will, as and when reasonably requested by Collateral Agent from time to time, confirm in writing matters relating to the PPA (including the performance of same by Project Company); provided, such confirmation may be limited to matters of which CPA is aware as of the time the confirmation is given and such confirmations shall be without prejudice to any rights of CPA under the PPA as between CPA and Project Company.

1.10 Exclusivity of Dealings.

Except as provided in Sections 1.3, 1.4, 1.8, 1.9 and 2.1, unless and until CPA receives a Financing Document Default Notice, CPA shall deal exclusively with Project Company in connection with the performance of CPA’s obligations under the PPA. From and after such time as CPA receives a Financing Document Default Notice and until a Substitute Owner is substituted for Project Company pursuant to Section 1.4, a Replacement PPA is entered into or the PPA is transferred to a Person to whom the Facility is transferred pursuant to Section 1.6, CPA shall, until Collateral Agent confirms to CPA in writing that all obligations under the Financing Documents are no longer outstanding, deal exclusively with Collateral Agent in connection with the performance of CPA’s obligations under the PPA, and CPA may irrevocably rely on instructions provided by Collateral Agent in accordance therewith to the exclusion of those provided by any other Person.

1.11 No Amendments.

To the extent permitted by Laws, CPA agrees that it will not, without the prior written consent of Collateral Agent (not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned) (a) enter into any material supplement, restatement, novation, extension, amendment or modification of the PPA (b) terminate or suspend its performance under the PPA (except in accordance with Section 1.3) or (c) consent to or accept any termination or cancellation of the PPA by Project Company.

(b) Additional Testing. Seller shall, at times and for durations reasonably agreed to by Buyer, conduct necessary testing to ensure the Storage Facility is functioning properly and the Storage Facility is able to respond to Buyer or CAISO Dispatches. (c) Buyer or Seller Initiated Tests. Any testing of the Storage Facility requested by Buyer after the Commercial Operation Storage Capacity Tests and all required annual tests pursuant to Section B of Exhibit O shall be deemed Buyer-instructed dispatches of the Facility (“Buyer Dispatched Test”). Any test of the Storage Facility that is not a Buyer Dispatched Test (including all tests conducted prior to Commercial Operation, any Commercial Operation Storage Capacity Tests, any Storage Capacity Test conducted if the Effective Storage Capacity immediately prior to such Storage Capacity Test is below seventy percent (70%) of the Installed Storage Capacity, any test required by CAISO (including any test required to obtain or maintain CAISO Certification), and other Seller-requested discretionary tests or dispatches, at times and for durations reasonably agreed to by Buyer, that Seller deems necessary for purposes of reliably operating or maintaining the Storage Facility or for re-performing a required test within a reasonable number of days of the initial required test (considering the circumstances that led to the need for a retest)) shall be deemed a “Seller Initiated Test”. (i) For any Seller Initiated Test, other than Storage Capacity Tests required by Exhibit O for which there is a stated notice requirement, Seller shall notify Buyer no later than twenty-four (24) hours prior thereto (or any shorter period reasonably acceptable to Buyer consistent with Prudent Operating Practices).
(ii) No Charging Notices or Discharging Notices shall be issued during any Seller Initiated Test or Buyer Dispatched Test except as reasonably requested by Seller or Buyer to implement the applicable test. Periods during which Buyer Dispatched Tests render the Storage Facility (or any portion thereof, as applicable) unavailable shall be excluded for purposes of calculating the Annual Storage Capacity Availability. The Storage Facility will be deemed unavailable during any Seller Initiated Test, and Buyer shall not dispatch or otherwise schedule the Storage Facility during such Seller Initiated Test. (d) Testing Costs and Revenues.
(i) For all Buyer Dispatched Tests, Buyer shall direct only Charging Energy to be used to charge the Storage Facility and Buyer shall be entitled to all CAISO revenues associated with a Storage Facility discharge during a Buyer Dispatched Test. For all Seller Initiated Tests, (1) Seller shall reimburse Buyer the amount of Buyer’s payment of the Charging Energy for Agenda Page 369
44 such Seller Initiated Test, and (2) Seller shall be entitled to all CAISO revenues associated with the discharge of such Energy, but all Green Attributes associated therewith shall be for Buyer’s account at no additional cost to Buyer. Buyer shall pay to Seller, in the month following Buyer’s receipt of such CAISO revenues and otherwise in accordance with Exhibit C, all applicable CAISO revenues received by Buyer and associated with the discharge Energy associated with such Seller Initiated Test.
(ii) Buyer shall be responsible for all costs, expenses and fees payable or reimbursable to its representative(s) witnessing any Facility test. (iii) Except as set forth in Sections 4.9(d)(i) and (ii), all other costs of any testing of the Storage Facility shall be borne by Seller. Any such representative(s) of Buyer shall adhere to the safety and security procedures of Seller, which shall be provided by Seller to Buyer in writing. Buyer shall indemnify and hold Seller harmless for any losses or claims for personal injury, death or property damage to the Facility or Site solely to the extent caused by Buyer, its authorized agents, employees, and inspectors, during any such access.

4.10 WREGIS. Seller shall, at its sole expense, but subject to Section 3.12, take all actions and execute all documents or instruments necessary to ensure that all WREGIS Certificates associated with all Renewable Energy Credits corresponding to all PV Energy are issued and tracked for purposes of satisfying the requirements of the California Renewables Portfolio Standard and transferred in a timely manner to Buyer for Buyer’s sole benefit. Seller shall transfer the Renewable Energy Credits to Buyer. Seller shall comply with all Laws, including the WREGIS Operating Rules, regarding the certification and transfer of such WREGIS Certificates to Buyer and Buyer shall be given sole title to all such WREGIS Certificates. Seller shall be deemed to have satisfied the warranty in Section 4.10(g), provided that Seller fulfills its obligations under Sections

4.10(a) through (g) below. In addition:
(a) Prior to the Commercial Operation Date, Seller shall register the Facility with WREGIS and establish an account with WREGIS (“Seller’s WREGIS Account”), which Seller shall maintain until the end of the Delivery Term. Seller shall transfer the WREGIS Certificates using “Forward Certificate Transfers” (as described in the WREGIS Operating Rules) from Seller’s WREGIS Account to the WREGIS account(s) of Buyer or the account(s) of a designee that Buyer identifies by Notice to Seller (“Buyer’s WREGIS Account”). Seller shall be responsible for all expenses associated with registering the Facility with WREGIS, establishing and maintaining Seller’s WREGIS Account, paying WREGIS Certificate issuance and transfer fees, and transferring WREGIS Certificates from Seller’s WREGIS Account to Buyer’s WREGIS Account.
(b) Seller shall cause Forward Certificate Transfers to occur on a monthly basis in accordance with the certification procedure established by the WREGIS Operating Rules. Since WREGIS Certificates will only be created for whole MWh amounts of PV Energy generated, any fractional MWh amounts (i.e., kWh) will be carried forward until sufficient generation is accumulated for the creation of a WREGIS Certificate.

Agenda Page 370
45 (c) Seller shall, at its sole expense, ensure that the WREGIS Certificates for a given calendar month correspond with the PV Energy for such calendar month as evidenced by the Facility’s metered data.
(d) Due to the ninety (90) day delay in the creation of WREGIS Certificates relative to the timing of invoice payment under Section 8.2, Buyer shall make an invoice payment for a given month in accordance with Section 8.2 before the WREGIS Certificates for such month are formally transferred to Buyer in accordance with the WREGIS Operating Rules and this Section 4.10. Notwithstanding this delay, Buyer shall have all right and title to all such WREGIS Certificates upon payment to Seller in accordance with Section 8.2. (e) A “WREGIS Certificate Deficit” means any deficit or shortfall in WREGIS Certificates delivered to Buyer for a calendar month as compared to the PV Energy for the same calendar month (“Deficient Month”) caused by an error or omission of Seller. If any WREGIS Certificate Deficit is caused by, or the result of any action or inaction of, Seller, then the amount of PV Energy in the Deficient Month shall be reduced by three (3) times the amount of the WREGIS Certificate Deficit for purposes of calculating Buyer’s payment to Seller under Article 8 and the Guaranteed Energy Production for the applicable Contract Year; provided, such adjustment shall not apply to the extent that Seller either (x) resolves the WREGIS Certificate Deficit within ninety (90) days after the Deficient Month or (y) provides Replacement Green Attributes (as defined in Exhibit G) within ninety (90) days after the Deficient Month (i) upon a schedule reasonably acceptable to Buyer and (ii) provided that such deliveries do not impose additional costs upon Buyer for which Seller refuses to provide reimbursement. Without limiting Seller’s obligations under this Section 4.10, if a WREGIS Certificate Deficit is caused solely by an error or omission of WREGIS, the Parties shall cooperate in good faith to cause WREGIS to correct its error or omission.
(f) If WREGIS changes the WREGIS Operating Rules after the Effective Date or applies the WREGIS Operating Rules in a manner inconsistent with this Section 4.10 after the Effective Date, the Parties promptly shall modify this Section 4.10 as reasonably required to cause and enable Seller to transfer to Buyer’s WREGIS Account a quantity of WREGIS Certificates for each given calendar month that corresponds to the PV Energy in the same calendar month. (g) Seller warrants that all necessary steps to allow the Renewable Energy Credits transferred to Buyer to be tracked in WREGIS will be taken prior to the first Energy delivery under this Agreement.

Seller and Buyer, or Buyer’s Scheduling Coordinator, shall cooperate to allow both Parties to retrieve the meter reads from the CAISO Operational Meter Analysis and Reporting (OMAR) web and/or directly from the CAISO meter(s) at the Facility. (b) Section 7.1(a) is based on the Parties’ mutual understanding as of the Effective Date that (i) the CAISO requires the configuration of the Facility to include, as the sole meters for the Facility, the Generating Facility Meter and the Storage Facility Meter, (ii) the CAISO requires the Generating Facility Meter and the Storage Facility Meter to be programmed for Electrical Losses as set forth in the definition of Electrical Losses in this Agreement, and (iii) the automatic adjustments to Charging Notices and Discharging Notices as set forth in the definitions of Charging Notice and Discharging Notice in this Agreement will not result in Seller violating, or incurring any costs, penalties or charges under, the CAISO Tariff. If any of the foregoing mutual understandings in (i), (ii), or (iii) between the Parties become incorrect during the Delivery Term, the Parties shall cooperate in good faith to make any amendments and modifications to the Facility and this Agreement as are reasonably necessary to conform this Agreement to the CAISO Tariff and avoid, to the maximum extent practicable, any CAISO charges, costs or penalties that may be imposed on either Party due to non-conformance with the CAISO Tariff, such agreement not to be unreasonably delayed, conditioned or withheld.

7.2 Meter Verification. Annually, if Seller has reason to believe there may be a meter malfunction, or upon Buyer’s reasonable request, Seller shall test the meter. The tests shall be conducted by independent third parties qualified to conduct such tests. Buyer shall be notified seven (7) days in advance of such tests and have a right to be present during such tests. If a meter is inaccurate it shall be promptly repaired or replaced. If a meter is inaccurate by more than one percent (1%) and it is not known when the meter inaccuracy commenced (if such evidence exists such date will be used to adjust prior invoices), then the invoices covering the period of time since Agenda Page 373
48 the last meter test shall be adjusted for the amount of the inaccuracy on the assumption that the inaccuracy persisted during one-half of such period so long as such adjustments are accepted by CAISO and WREGIS; provided, such period may not exceed twelve (12) months.

ARTICLE 8
INVOICING AND PAYMENT; CREDIT

8.1 Invoicing. Seller shall use commercially reasonable efforts to deliver an invoice to Buyer for Product no later than the tenth (10th) day of each month for the previous calendar month.

Each invoice shall (a) reflect records of metered data, including (i) CAISO metering and transaction data sufficient to document and verify the amount of Product delivered by the Facility for any Settlement Period during the preceding month, including the amount of PV Energy, Charging Energy, Discharging Energy, Replacement RA and Replacement Product delivered to Buyer (if any), the calculation of Deemed Delivered Energy and Adjusted Energy Production, the LMP prices at the Delivery Point for each Settlement Period, and the Contract Price applicable to such Product in accordance with Exhibit C, and (ii) data showing a calculation of the Monthly Capacity Payment and other relevant data for the prior month; and (b) be in a format reasonably specified by Buyer, covering the Product provided in the preceding month determined in accordance with the applicable provisions of this Agreement. Buyer shall, and shall cause its Scheduling Coordinator to, provide Seller with all reasonable access (including, in real time, to the maximum extent reasonably possible) to any records, including invoices or settlement data from the CAISO, forecast data and other information, all as may be necessary from time to time for Seller to prepare and verify the accuracy of all invoices.

8.2 Payment. Buyer shall make payment to Seller for Product (and any other amounts due) by wire transfer or ACH payment to the bank account provided on each monthly invoice.

Buyer shall pay undisputed invoice amounts by the later of (a) ten (10) Business Days after Buyer’s receipt of the invoice from Seller, and (b) the thirtieth (30th) day of the month after the operational month for which such invoice was rendered; provided, if such due date falls on a weekend or legal holiday, such due date shall be the next Business Day. Payments made after the due date will be considered late and will bear interest on the unpaid balance. If the amount due is not paid on or before the due date or if any other payment that is due and owing from one Party to another is not paid on or before its applicable due date, a late payment charge shall be applied to the unpaid balance and shall be added to the next billing statement. Such late payment charge shall be calculated based on an annual Interest Rate equal to the prime rate published on the date of the invoice in The Wall Street Journal (or, if The Wall Street Journal is not published on that day, the next succeeding date of publication), plus two percent (2%) (the “Interest Rate”). If the due date occurs on a day that is not a Business Day, the late payment charge shall begin to accrue on the next succeeding Business Day.

8.3 Books and Records. To facilitate payment and verification, each Party shall maintain all books and records necessary for billing and payments, including copies of all invoices under this Agreement, for a period of at least two (2) years or as otherwise required by Law. Upon fifteen (15) days’ Notice to the other Party, either Party shall be granted reasonable access to the accounting books and records within the possession or control of the other Party pertaining to all invoices generated pursuant to this Agreement.

Agenda Page 374
49 8.4 Payment Adjustments; Billing Errors. Payment adjustments shall be made if Buyer or Seller discovers there have been good faith inaccuracies in invoicing that are not otherwise disputed under Section 8.5 or an adjustment to an amount previously invoiced or paid is required due to a correction of data by the CAISO, or there is determined to have been a meter inaccuracy sufficient to require a payment adjustment. If the required adjustment is in favor of Buyer, Buyer’s next monthly payment shall be credited in an amount equal to the adjustment. If the required adjustment is in favor of Seller, Seller shall add the adjustment amount to Buyer’s next monthly invoice. Adjustments in favor of either Buyer or Seller shall bear interest, until settled in full, in accordance with Section 8.2, accruing from the date on which the adjusted amount should have been due.

8.5 Billing Disputes. A Party may, in good faith, dispute the correctness of any invoice or any adjustment to an invoice rendered under this Agreement or adjust any invoice for any arithmetic or computational error within twelve (12) months of the date the invoice, or adjustment to an invoice, was rendered. In the event an invoice or portion thereof, or any other claim or adjustment arising hereunder, is disputed, payment of the undisputed portion of the invoice shall be required to be made when due. Any invoice dispute or invoice adjustment shall be in writing and shall state the basis for the dispute or adjustment. Payment of the disputed amount shall not be required until the dispute is resolved. Upon resolution of the dispute, any required payment shall be made within five (5) Business Days of such resolution along with interest accrued at the Interest Rate from and including the original due date to but excluding the date paid. Inadvertent overpayments shall be returned via adjustments in accordance with Section 8.4. Any dispute with respect to an invoice is waived if the other Party is not notified in accordance with this Section 8.5 within twelve (12) months after the invoice is rendered or subsequently adjusted, except to the extent any misinformation was from a third party not affiliated with any Party and such third party corrects its information after the twelve-month period. If an invoice is not rendered within twelve (12) months after the close of the month during which performance occurred, the right to payment for such performance is waived.

8.6 Netting of Payments. The Parties hereby agree that they shall discharge mutual debts and payment obligations due and owing to each other on the same date through netting, in which case all amounts owed by each Party to the other Party for the purchase and sale of Product during the monthly billing period under this Agreement or otherwise arising out of this Agreement, including any related damages calculated pursuant to Exhibits B and P, interest, and payments or credits, shall be netted so that only the excess amount remaining due shall be paid by the Party who owes it.

8.7 Seller’s Development Security. To secure its obligations under this Agreement, Seller shall deliver the Development Security to Buyer within thirty (30) days after the Effective Date. Seller shall maintain the Development Security in full force and effect. Upon the earlier of (a) Seller’s delivery of the Performance Security, or (b) sixty (60) days after termination of this Agreement, Buyer shall return the Development Security to Seller, less the amounts drawn in accordance with this Agreement. Subject to this Section 8.7 and the other terms of this Agreement governing Seller’s Development Security requirements, Seller may change the type and/or issuer (as applicable) of the Development Security from time to time and at any time.

8.8 Seller’s Performance Security. To secure its obligations under this Agreement, Agenda Page 375
50 Seller shall deliver Performance Security to Buyer on or before the Commercial Operation Date.

If the Performance Security is not in the form of cash or Letter of Credit, it shall be substantially in the form of Guaranty set forth in Exhibit S. Seller shall maintain the Performance Security in full force and effect, and Seller shall within ten (10) Business Days after any draw thereon replenish the Performance Security in the event Buyer collects or draws down any portion of the Performance Security for any reason permitted under this Agreement other than to satisfy a Termination Payment, until the following have occurred: (a) the Delivery Term has expired or terminated early; and (b) all payment obligations of Seller due and payable under this Agreement, including compensation for penalties, Termination Payment, indemnification payments or other damages are paid in full (whether directly or indirectly such as through set-off or netting); provided, however, that in no event shall Seller have any obligation to replenish the Performance Security to the extent that the aggregate amount of such replenishment of the Performance Security during the Delivery Term exceeds two (2) times the Performance Security requirement. Following the occurrence of both events, Buyer shall promptly return to Seller the unused portion of the Performance Security. Subject to this Section 8.8 and the other terms of this Agreement governing Seller’s Performance Security requirements, Seller may change the type and/or issuer (as applicable) of the Performance Security from time to time and at any time.

8.9 First Priority Security Interest in Cash or Cash Equivalent Collateral. To secure its obligations under this Agreement, and until released as provided herein, Seller hereby grants to Buyer a present and continuing first-priority security interest (“Security Interest”) in, and lien on (and right to net against), and assignment of the Development Security, Performance Security, any other cash collateral and cash equivalent collateral posted pursuant to Sections 8.7 and 8.8 and any and all interest thereon or proceeds resulting therefrom or from the liquidation thereof, whether now or hereafter held by, on behalf of, or for the benefit of Buyer, and Seller agrees to take all action as Buyer reasonably requires in order to perfect Buyer’s Security Interest in, and lien on (and right to net against), such collateral and any and all proceeds resulting therefrom or from the liquidation thereof.

Upon or any time after the occurrence of an Event of Default caused by Seller, an Early Termination Date resulting from an Event of Default caused by Seller, or an occasion provided for in this Agreement where Buyer is authorized to retain all or a portion of the Development Security or Performance Security, Buyer may do any one or more of the following (in each case subject to the final sentence of this Section 8.9):
(a) Exercise any of its rights and remedies with respect to the Development Security and Performance Security, including any such rights and remedies under Law then in effect;
(b) Draw on any outstanding Letter of Credit issued for its benefit and retain any cash held by Buyer as Development Security or Performance Security; and (c) Liquidate all Development Security or Performance Security (as applicable) then held by or for the benefit of Buyer free from any claim or right of any nature whatsoever of Seller, including any equity or right of purchase or redemption by Seller.

Buyer shall apply the proceeds of the collateral realized upon the exercise of any such rights or Agenda Page 376
51 remedies to reduce Seller’s obligations under this Agreement (Seller remains liable for any amounts owing to Buyer after such application), subject to Buyer’s obligation to return any surplus proceeds remaining after such obligations are satisfied in full.

8.10 Buyer’s Financial Statements. From the Effective Date, unless such financial statements are available on the internet at https://www.cleanpoweralliance.org/, if requested in writing by Seller, Buyer shall provide to Seller unaudited quarterly financial statements within ninety (90) days of the end of each quarter, and audited annual financial statements within one hundred eighty (180) days after the end of each fiscal year. Buyer’s financial statements shall have been prepared in accordance with GAAP, provided that Buyer’s quarterly budget-to-actual reports are not prepared in accordance with GAAP. Should any such statements not be available on a timely basis due to a delay in preparation or certification, such delay shall not be an Event of Default so long as Buyer diligently pursues the preparation, certification and delivery of the statements.

ARTICLE 9

ARTICLE 10

FORCE MAJEURE

10.1 Definition.
(a) “Force Majeure Event” means any act or event that delays or prevents a Party from timely performing all or a portion of its obligations under this Agreement or from complying with all or a portion of the conditions under this Agreement if such act or event, despite the exercise of commercially reasonable efforts, cannot be avoided by and is beyond the reasonable control (whether direct or indirect) of and without the fault or negligence of the Party relying thereon as justification for such delay, nonperformance, or noncompliance.

Agenda Page 377
52 (b) Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, so long as the following events, despite the exercise of reasonable efforts, cannot be avoided by, and are beyond the reasonable control (whether direct or indirect) of and without the fault or negligence of the Party relying thereon as justification for such delay, nonperformance or noncompliance, a Force Majeure Event may include an act of God or the elements, such as flooding, lightning, hurricanes, tornadoes, or ice storms; explosion; fire; volcanic eruption; flood; epidemic, pandemic, or plague; landslide; mudslide; sabotage; terrorism; earthquake; or other cataclysmic events; an act of public enemy; war; blockade; civil insurrection; riot; civil disturbance; or strikes or other labor difficulties caused or suffered by a Party or any third party except as set forth below. (c) Notwithstanding the foregoing, the term “Force Majeure Event” does not include (i) economic conditions or changes in Law that render a Party’s performance of this Agreement at the Contract Price unprofitable or otherwise uneconomic (including an increase in component or compliance costs for any reason, including foreign or domestic tariffs, Buyer’s ability to buy Product at a lower price, or Seller’s ability to sell the Product, or any component thereof, at a higher price, than under this Agreement); (ii) Seller’s inability to obtain permits or approvals of any type for the construction, operation, or maintenance of the Facility, except to the extent such inability is caused by a Force Majeure Event; (iii) the inability of a Party to make payments when due under this Agreement, unless the cause of such inability is an event that would otherwise constitute a Force Majeure Event as described above; (iv) a Curtailment Order; (v) Seller’s inability to obtain sufficient labor, equipment, materials, or other resources to build or operate the Facility, including the lack of wind, sun or other fuel source of an inherently intermittent nature, except to the extent such inability is caused by a Force Majeure Event; (vi) a strike, work stoppage or labor dispute limited only to any one or more of Seller, Seller’s Affiliates, Seller’s contractors, their subcontractors thereof or any other third party employed by Seller to work on the Facility; (vii) any equipment failure except if such equipment failure is caused by a Force Majeure Event; or (viii) any action or inaction by any third party, including Transmission Provider, that delays or prevents the approval, construction or placement in service of any Interconnection Facilities or Network Upgrades, except to the extent caused by a Force Majeure Event.

10.2 No Liability If a Force Majeure Event Occurs. Except as provided in Section 4 of Exhibit B, neither Seller nor Buyer shall be liable to the other Party in the event it is prevented from performing its obligations hereunder in whole or in part due to a Force Majeure Event. The Party rendered unable to fulfill any obligation by reason of a Force Majeure Event shall take reasonable actions necessary to remove such inability with due speed and diligence. Nothing herein shall be construed as permitting that Party to continue to fail to perform after said cause has been removed. The obligation to use due speed and diligence shall not be interpreted to require resolution of labor disputes by acceding to demands of the opposition when such course is inadvisable in the discretion of the Party having such difficulty. Neither Party shall be considered in breach or default of this Agreement if and to the extent that any failure or delay in the Party’s performance of one or more of its obligations hereunder is caused by a Force Majeure Event. The occurrence and continuation of a Force Majeure Event shall not suspend or excuse the obligation of a Party to make any payments due hereunder.

10.3 Notice. In the event of any delay or nonperformance resulting from a Force Majeure Event, the Party suffering the Force Majeure Event shall (a) as soon as practicable, notify the other Agenda Page 378
53 Party in writing of the nature, cause, estimated date of commencement thereof, and the anticipated extent of any delay or interruption in performance, and (b) notify the other Party in writing of the cessation or termination of such Force Majeure Event, all as known or estimated in good faith by the affected Party; provided, a Party’s failure to give timely Notice shall not affect such Party’s ability to assert that a Force Majeure Event has occurred unless the delay in giving Notice materially prejudices the other Party.

10.4 Termination Following Force Majeure Event or Development Cure Period. (a) If the cumulative extensions granted under the Development Cure Period (other than the extensions granted pursuant to clause 4(d) in Exhibit B) equal or exceed one hundred eighty (180) days, and Seller has demonstrated to Buyer’s reasonable satisfaction that such delays did not result from Seller’s actions or failure to take commercially reasonable actions, then Seller may terminate this Agreement upon Notice to Buyer. Upon such termination, neither Party shall have any liability to the other Party, save and except for those obligations specified in Section 2.1(b), and Buyer shall promptly return to Seller any Development Security then held by Buyer, less any amounts drawn in accordance with this Agreement. (b) If a Force Majeure Event has occurred after the Commercial Operation Date that has caused either Party to be wholly or partially unable to perform its obligations hereunder in any material respect, and the impacted Party has claimed and received relief from performance of its obligations for a consecutive twelve (12) month period, then either Party may terminate this Agreement upon Notice to the other Party with respect to the Facility experiencing the Force Majeure Event; provided, in the case of Seller as the Party electing to terminate this Agreement, for a period of two (2) years from the date of the termination of this Agreement, Seller shall not, and shall cause its Affiliates and any successors or assign to not, following such termination directly or indirectly enter into any agreement or consummate any transaction relating to the sale of Facility Energy with any Person other than Buyer (a “Third-Party Transaction”) except in compliance with the terms and conditions of Section 10.5. Upon any such termination, neither Party shall have any liability to the other Party, save and except for those obligations specified in Section 2.1(b), and Buyer shall promptly return to Seller any Performance Security then held by Buyer, less any amounts drawn in accordance with this Agreement.

10.5 Right of First Refusal.
(a) Following a termination by Seller under Section 10.4, if Seller receives a bona fide written offer for a Third-Party Transaction that Seller desires to accept (each, a “Third-Party Offer”), Seller shall immediately notify Buyer in writing (the “Offer Notice”) of, subject to any confidentiality obligations that may apply to Seller, the identity of all proposed parties to such Third-Party Transaction and the material financial and other terms and conditions of such Third-Party Offer (the “Material Terms”). Each Offer Notice shall constitute an offer by Seller to enter into an agreement with Buyer on the same Material Terms of such Third-Party Offer (the “ROFR Offer”).
(b) At any time prior to the expiration of the forty-five (45) day period following Buyer's receipt of the Offer Notice (the “Exercise Period”), Buyer may accept the ROFR Offer by delivery to Seller of a letter of intent containing the Material Terms and any Agenda Page 379
54 standard and customary conditions applicable to a transaction of this nature, executed by Buyer; provided, however, that Buyer is not required to accept any non-financial terms or conditions contained in any Material Terms that cannot be fulfilled by Buyer as readily as by any other Person (e.g., an agreement conditioned upon the services of a particular individual or the supply of goods or services exclusively under the control of such third-party offeror). (c) If, by the expiration of the Exercise Period, Buyer has not accepted the ROFR Offer, and provided that Seller has complied with all of the provisions of this Section

10.5, at any time following the expiration of the Exercise Period, Seller may consummate the Third-Party Transaction with the counterparty identified in the applicable Offer Notice, on Material Terms that are the same or more favorable to Seller as the Material Terms set forth in the Offer Notice. If such Third-Party Transaction is not consummated, the terms and conditions of this Section 10.5 will again apply and Seller shall not enter into any Third-Party Transaction without affording Buyer the right of first refusal on the terms and conditions of this Section 10.5.

(a) to send Notice, designating a day, no earlier than the day such Notice is deemed to be received and no later than twenty (20) days after such Notice is deemed to be received, as an early termination date of this Agreement (“Early Termination Date”) that terminates this Agreement (the “Terminated Transaction”) and ends the Delivery Term effective as of the Early Termination Date;
(b) to accelerate all amounts owing between the Parties, and to collect as liquidated damages (i) the Damage Payment, or (ii) the Termination Payment, as applicable, in each case calculated in accordance with Section 11.3 below; (c) to withhold any payments due to the Defaulting Party under this Agreement; (d) to suspend performance; and
(e) to exercise any other right or remedy available at law or in equity, including specific performance or injunctive relief, except to the extent such remedies are expressly limited under this Agreement; provided, payment by the Defaulting Party of the Damage Payment or Termination Payment, as applicable, shall constitute liquidated damages and the Non-Defaulting Party’s sole and exclusive remedy for any Terminated Transaction and the Event of Default related thereto.

Agenda Page 383
58 11.3 Damage Payment; Termination Payment. If an Early Termination Date has been declared, the Non-Defaulting Party shall calculate, in a commercially reasonable manner, the Damage Payment or Termination Payment, as applicable, in accordance with this Section 11.3. (a) Damage Payment Prior to Commercial Operation Date. If the Early Termination Date occurs before the Commercial Operation Date, then the Damage Payment shall be calculated in accordance with this Section 11.3(a).
(i) If Seller is the Defaulting Party, then the Damage Payment shall be owed to Buyer and shall be equal to the entire Development Security amount and any interest accrued thereon. Buyer shall be entitled to immediately retain for its own benefit those funds held as Development Security and any interest accrued thereon, and any amount of Development Security that Seller has not yet posted with Buyer shall be immediately due and payable by Seller to Buyer. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 11.3(a)(i), in no event shall the Damage Payment paid by Seller exceed the full Development Security amount and any interest accrued thereon. There will be no amounts owed to Seller. The Parties agree that Buyer’s damages in the event of an Early Termination Date prior to the Commercial Operation Date caused by Seller’s default would be difficult or impossible to determine and that the damages set forth in this Section 11.3(a)(i) are a reasonable approximation of Buyer’s harm or loss. (ii) If Buyer is the Defaulting Party, then the Damage Payment shall be owed to Seller and shall equal the sum of the actual, documented and verifiable costs incurred by Seller between the Effective Date and the Early Termination Date in connection with the Facility, less the fair market value (determined in a commercially reasonable manner) of (A) all Seller’s assets individually, or (B) the entire Facility, whichever is greater on the Early Termination Date, regardless of whether or not any Seller asset or the entire Facility is actually sold or disposed of.

There will be no amount owed to Buyer. The Parties agree that Seller’s damages in the event of an Early Termination Date prior to the Commercial Operation Date caused by Buyer’s default would be difficult or impossible to determine and that the damages set forth in this Section 11.3(a)(ii) are a reasonable approximation of Seller’s harm or loss.
(b) Termination Payment On or After the Commercial Operation Date. The payment owed by the Defaulting Party to the Non-Defaulting Party for a Terminated Transaction occurring after the Commercial Operation Date (“Termination Payment”) shall be the aggregate of all Settlement Amounts plus any and all other amounts due to or from the Non-Defaulting Party (as of the Early Termination Date) netted into a single amount. The Non-Defaulting Party shall calculate, in a commercially reasonable manner, a Settlement Amount for the Terminated Transaction as of the Early Termination Date. Third parties supplying information for purposes of the calculation of Gains or Losses may include, without limitation, dealers in the relevant markets, end-users of the relevant product, information vendors and other sources of market information.

The Settlement Amount shall not include consequential, incidental, punitive, exemplary, indirect or business interruption damages. Without prejudice to the Non-Defaulting Party’s duty to mitigate, the Non-Defaulting Party shall not have to enter into replacement transactions to establish a Settlement Amount. Each Party agrees and acknowledges that (i) the actual damages that the Non-Defaulting Party would incur in connection with a Terminated Transaction would be difficult or impossible to predict with certainty, (ii) the Termination Payment described in this Section

11.3(b) is a reasonable and appropriate approximation of such damages, and (iii) the Termination Agenda Page 384
59 Payment described in this Section 11.3(b) is the exclusive remedy of the Non-Defaulting Party in connection with a Terminated Transaction but shall not otherwise act to limit any of the Non-Defaulting Party’s rights or remedies if the Non-Defaulting Party does not elect a Terminated Transaction as its remedy for an Event of Default by the Defaulting Party.

11.4 Notice of Payment of Termination Payment or Damage Payment. As soon as practicable after a Terminated Transaction, but in no event later than sixty (60) days after the Early Termination Date, Notice shall be given by the Non-Defaulting Party to the Defaulting Party of the amount of the Damage Payment or Termination Payment, as applicable, and whether the Termination Payment or Damage Payment, as applicable, is due to or from the Non-Defaulting Party. The Notice shall include a written statement explaining in reasonable detail the calculation of such amount and the sources for such calculation. The Termination Payment or Damage Payment, as applicable, shall be made to or from the Non-Defaulting Party, as applicable, within ten (10) Business Days after such Notice is effective.

11.5 Disputes With Respect to Termination Payment or Damage Payment. If the Defaulting Party disputes the Non-Defaulting Party’s calculation of the Termination Payment or Damage Payment, as applicable, in whole or in part, the Defaulting Party shall, within five (5) Business Days of receipt of the Non-Defaulting Party’s calculation of the Termination Payment or Damage Payment, as applicable, provide to the Non-Defaulting Party a detailed written explanation of the basis for such dispute. Disputes regarding the Termination Payment or Damage Payment, as applicable, shall be determined in accordance with Article 15.

11.6 Limitation on Seller’s Ability to Make or Agree to Third-Party Sales from the Facility after Early Termination Date. If the Agreement is terminated by Buyer prior to the Commercial Operation Date due to Seller’s Event of Default, neither Seller nor Seller's Affiliates may sell, market or deliver any Product associated with or attributable to the Facility to a party other than Buyer for a period of two (2) years following the Early Termination Date due to Seller’s Event of Default, unless prior to selling, marketing or delivering such Product, or entering into the agreement to sell, market or deliver such Product to a party other than Buyer, Seller or Seller’s Affiliates provide Buyer with a written offer to sell the Product on terms and conditions materially similar to the terms and conditions contained in this Agreement (including price), and Buyer fails to accept such offer within forty-five (45) days of Buyer’s receipt thereof. (a) Neither Seller nor Seller’s Affiliates may sell or transfer the Facility, or any part thereof, or land rights or interests in the Site (including the interconnection queue position of the Facility) so long as the limitations contained in this Section 11.6 apply, unless the transferee agrees to be bound by the terms set forth in this Section 11.6 pursuant to a written agreement approved by Buyer.
(b) Seller shall indemnify and hold Buyer harmless from all benefits lost and other damages sustained by Buyer as a result of any breach by Seller of its covenants contained within this Section 11.6.

11.7 Rights And Remedies Are Cumulative. Except where liquidated damages or other remedy are explicitly provided as the exclusive remedy, the rights and remedies of a Party pursuant to this Article 11 shall be cumulative and in addition to the rights of the Parties otherwise provided in this Agreement.

Any assignment made without the required written consent (if applicable), or in violation of the conditions to assignment set out below, shall be null and void.

Seller shall be responsible for Buyer’s reasonable costs associated with the preparation, review, execution and delivery of documents in connection with any assignment of this Agreement by Seller, including without limitation reasonable attorneys’ fees.

ARTICLE 16

INDEMNIFICATION

16.1 Indemnification.
(a) Each Party (the “Indemnifying Party”) agrees to indemnify, defend and hold harmless the other Party and its Affiliates, directors, officers, employees and agents (collectively, the “Indemnified Party”) from and against all claims, demands, losses, liabilities, penalties, and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) (i) for personal injury or death to Persons and damage to the property of any third party to the extent arising out of, resulting from, or caused by the negligent or willful misconduct of the Indemnifying Party, its Affiliates, its directors, officers, employees, or agents, or (ii) for third-party claims resulting from the Indemnifying Party’s breach (including inaccuracy of any representation of warranty made hereunder), performance or non-performance of its obligations under this Agreement. (b) Seller shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless Buyer and its Affiliates, directors, officers, employees from and against all claims, demands, losses, liabilities, penalties, and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) in connection with any claims of infringement upon or violation of any trade secret, trademark, trade name, copyright, patent, or other intellectual property rights of any third party by equipment, software, applications or programs (or any portion of same) used in connection with the Facility (an “IP Indemnity Claim”). (c) Nothing in this Section 16.1 shall enlarge or relieve Seller or Buyer of any liability to the other for any breach of this Agreement. Neither Party shall be indemnified for its damages resulting from its sole negligence, intentional acts or willful misconduct. These indemnity provisions shall not be construed to relieve any insurer of its obligation to pay claims consistent with the provisions of a valid insurance policy.

16.2 Claims. Promptly after receipt by a Party of any claim or Notice of the commencement of any action, administrative, or legal proceeding, or investigation as to which the indemnity provided for in this Article 16 may apply, the Indemnified Party shall notify the Indemnifying Party in writing of such fact. The Indemnifying Party shall assume the defense thereof with counsel designated by the Indemnifying Party and satisfactory to the Indemnified Party, provided, if the defendants in any such action include both the Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party shall have reasonably concluded that there may be legal defenses available to it which are different from or additional to, or inconsistent with, those available to the Indemnifying Party, the Indemnified Party shall have the right to select and be represented by separate counsel, at the Indemnifying Party’s expense, unless a liability insurer is willing to pay such costs. If the Indemnifying Party fails to assume the defense of a claim meriting indemnification, the Indemnified Party may at the expense of the Indemnifying Party contest, settle, or pay such claim, provided that settlement or full payment of any such claim may be made only following consent of the Indemnifying Party or, absent such consent, written opinion of the Indemnified Party’s counsel that such claim is meritorious or warrants settlement. Except as Agenda Page 392
67 otherwise provided in this Article 16, in the event that a Party is obligated to indemnify and hold the other Party and its successors and assigns harmless under this Article 16, the amount owing to the Indemnified Party will be the amount of the Indemnified Party’s damages net of any insurance proceeds received by the Indemnified Party following a reasonable effort by the Indemnified Party to obtain such insurance proceeds.

ARTICLE 17

INSURANCE

17.1 Insurance.
(a) General Liability. Seller shall maintain, or cause to be maintained at its sole expense, (i) commercial general liability insurance, including products and completed operations and personal injury insurance, in a minimum amount of Ten Million Dollars ($10,000,000) per occurrence, and an annual aggregate of not less than Ten Million Dollars ($10,000,000), endorsed to provide contractual liability in said amount, specifically covering Seller’s obligations under this Agreement and including Buyer as an additional insured; and (ii) an umbrella insurance policy in a minimum limit of liability of Ten Million Dollars ($10,000,000) per occurrence and in aggregate.

Defense costs shall be provided as an additional benefit and not included within the limits of liability. Such insurance shall contain standard cross-liability and severability of interest provisions. The amount of insurance required above may be satisfied by any combination of primary and excess insurance.
(b) Employer’s Liability Insurance. Employers’ Liability insurance shall not be less than One Million Dollars ($1,000,000.00) for injury or death occurring as a result of each accident. With regard to bodily injury by disease, the One Million Dollar ($1,000,000) policy limit will apply to each employee.

Seller, if it has employees, shall also maintain at all times during the Contract Term workers’ compensation and employers’ liability insurance coverage in accordance with applicable requirements of Law. (d) Business Auto Insurance. Seller shall maintain at all times during the Contract Term business auto insurance for bodily injury and property damage with limits of One Million Dollars ($1,000,000) per occurrence. Such insurance shall cover liability arising out of Seller’s use of all owned (if any), non-owned and hired vehicles, including trailers or semi-trailers in the performance of the Agreement.
(e) Builder’s All-Risk Insurance. Seller shall maintain or cause to be maintained during the construction of the Facility prior to the Commercial Operation Date, builder’s all-risk insurance covering the Facility during such construction periods. (f) Subcontractor Insurance. Seller shall require all of its subcontractors to carry: (i) comprehensive general liability insurance with a combined single limit of coverage not Agenda Page 393
68 less than One Million Dollars ($1,000,000); (ii) workers’ compensation insurance and employers’ liability coverage in accordance with applicable requirements of Law; and (iii) business auto insurance for bodily injury and property damage with limits of one million dollars ($1,000,000) per occurrence. All subcontractors shall name Seller as an additional insured to insurance carried pursuant to clauses (f)(i) and (f)(iii). All subcontractors shall provide a primary endorsement and a waiver of subrogation to Seller for the required coverage pursuant to this Section 17.1(f). (g) Evidence of Insurance. Within ten (10) days after execution of the Agreement and upon annual renewal thereafter, Seller shall deliver to Buyer certificates of insurance evidencing such coverage. Such certificates shall specify that Buyer shall be given at least thirty (30) days prior Notice by Seller in the event of any material modification, cancellation or termination of coverage. Such insurance shall be primary coverage without right of contribution from any insurance of Buyer. Any other insurance maintained by Seller is for the exclusive benefit of Seller and shall not in any manner inure to the benefit of Buyer. The general liability, auto liability and worker’s compensation policies shall be endorsed with a waiver of subrogation in favor of Buyer for all work performed by Seller, its employees, agents and sub-contractors. (h) Failure to Comply with Insurance Requirements. If Seller fails to comply with any of the provisions of this Article 17, Seller, among other things and without restricting Buyer’s remedies under the Law or otherwise, shall, at its own cost and expense, act as an insurer and self-insure in accordance with the terms and conditions above. With respect to the required general liability, umbrella liability and business automobile liability insurance, Seller shall provide a current, full and complete defense to Buyer, its subsidiaries and Affiliates, and their respective officers, directors, shareholders, agents, employees, assigns, and successors in interest, in response to a third-party claim in the same manner that an insurer would have, had the insurance been maintained in accordance with the terms and conditions set forth above. In addition, alleged violations of the provisions of this Article 17 means that Seller has the initial burden of proof regarding any legal justification for refusing or withholding coverage and Seller shall face the same liability and damages as an insurer for wrongfully refusing or withholding coverage in accordance with the laws of California.

ARTICLE 18

CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION

18.1 Definition of Confidential Information. The following constitutes “Confidential Information,” whether oral or written which is delivered by Seller to Buyer or by Buyer to Seller including: (a) the terms and conditions of, and proposals and negotiations related to, this Agreement, and (b) information that either Seller or Buyer stamps or otherwise identifies as “confidential” or “proprietary” before disclosing it to the other. Confidential Information does not include (i) information that was publicly available at the time of the disclosure, other than as a result of a disclosure in breach of this Agreement; (ii) information that becomes publicly available through no fault of the recipient after the time of the delivery; (iii) information that was rightfully in the possession of the recipient (without confidential or proprietary restriction) at the time of delivery or that becomes available to the recipient from a source not subject to any restriction against disclosing such information to the recipient; and (iv) information that the recipient independently developed without a violation of this Agreement.

Agenda Page 394
69 18.2 Duty to Maintain Confidentiality. The Party receiving Confidential Information (the “Receiving Party”) from the other Party (the “Disclosing Party”) shall not disclose Confidential Information to a third party (other than the Party’s employees, lenders (including bona fide prospective lenders), counsel, accountants, directors or advisors, or any such representatives of a Party’s Affiliates, who have a need to know such information and have agreed to keep such terms confidential) except in order to comply with any applicable Law, regulation, or any exchange, control area or independent system operator rule or in connection with any court or regulatory proceeding applicable to such Party or any of its Affiliates; provided, each Party shall, to the extent practicable, use reasonable efforts to prevent or limit the disclosure. The Parties shall be entitled to all remedies available at law or in equity to enforce, or seek relief in connection with, this confidentiality obligation. The Parties agree and acknowledge that nothing in this Section 18.2 prohibits a Party from disclosing any one or more of the commercial terms of a transaction (other than the name of the other Party unless otherwise agreed to in writing by the Parties) to any industry price source for the purpose of aggregating and reporting such information in the form of a published energy price index.

The Parties acknowledge and agree that the Agreement and any transactions entered into in connection herewith are subject to the requirements of the California Public Records Act (Government Code Section 6250 et seq.). In order to designate information as confidential, the Disclosing Party must clearly stamp and identify the specific portion of the material designated with the word “Confidential.” The Parties agree not to over-designate material as Confidential Information. Over-designation includes stamping whole agreements, entire pages or series of pages as “Confidential” that clearly contain information that is not Confidential Information.

Upon request or demand of any third person or entity not a Party hereto to Buyer pursuant to the California Public Records Act for production, inspection and/or copying of Confidential Information (“Requested Confidential Information”), Buyer shall as soon as practical notify Seller in writing via email that such request has been made. Seller shall be solely responsible for taking at its sole expense whatever legal steps are necessary to prevent release of the Requested Confidential Information to the third party by Buyer. If Seller takes no such action after receiving the foregoing notice from Buyer, Buyer shall, at its discretion, be permitted to comply with the third party’s request or demand and is not required to defend against it. If Seller does take or attempt to take such action, Buyer shall provide timely and reasonable cooperation to Seller, if requested by Seller, and Seller agrees to indemnify and hold harmless Buyer, its officers, employees and agents (“Buyer’s Indemnified Parties”), from any claims, liability, award of attorneys’ fees, or damages, and to defend any action, claim or lawsuit brought against any of Buyer’s Indemnified Parties for Buyer’s refusal to disclose any Requested Confidential Information.

18.3 Irreparable Injury; Remedies. Receiving Party acknowledges that its obligations hereunder are necessary and reasonable in order to protect Disclosing Party and the business of Disclosing Party, and expressly acknowledges that monetary damages would be inadequate to compensate Disclosing Party for any breach or threatened breach by Receiving Party of any covenants and agreements set forth herein. Accordingly, Receiving Party acknowledges that any such breach or threatened breach will cause irreparable injury to Disclosing Party and that, in addition to any other remedies that may be available, in law, in equity or otherwise, Disclosing Agenda Page 395
70 Party will be entitled to obtain injunctive relief against the threatened breach of this Agreement or the continuation of any such breach, without the necessity of proving actual damages.

18.4 Further Permitted Disclosure. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Article 18, Confidential Information may be disclosed by the Receiving Party to any of its agents, consultants, contractors, trustees, or actual or potential financing parties (including, in the case of Seller, its Lender(s)), so long as such Person to whom Confidential Information is disclosed agrees in writing to be bound by confidentiality provisions that are at least as restrictive as this Article 18 to the same extent as if it were a Party.

18.5 Press Releases. Neither Party shall issue (or cause its Affiliates to issue) a press release regarding the transactions contemplated by this Agreement unless both Parties have agreed upon the contents of any such public statement.

ARTICLE 19

In any such proceeding, each Party further waives the right to assert that the other Party is a provider of last resort to the extent such term relates to 11 U.S.C. §366 or another provision of 11 U.S.C. § 101-1532.

Agenda Page 397
72 19.12 Change in Electric Market Design. If a change in the CAISO Tariff renders this Agreement or any provisions hereof incapable of being performed or administered, then any Party may request that Buyer and Seller enter into negotiations to make the minimum changes to this Agreement necessary to make this Agreement capable of being performed and administered, while attempting to preserve to the maximum extent possible the benefits, burdens, and obligations set forth in this Agreement as of the Effective Date. Upon delivery of such a request, Buyer and Seller shall engage in such negotiations in good faith.

FACILITY CONSTRUCTION AND COMMERCIAL OPERATION

1. Construction of the Facility.
a. “Construction Start” will occur upon Seller’s acquisition of all applicable regulatory authorizations, approvals and permits for the construction of the Facility, and once Seller has engaged all primary contractors and ordered all essential equipment and supplies as, in each case, can reasonably be considered necessary so that physical construction of the Facility may begin and proceed to completion without foreseeable interruption of material duration, and has executed an engineering, procurement, and construction contract and issued thereunder a final notice to proceed that authorizes the contractor to mobilize to Site and begin physical construction (including, at a minimum, excavation for foundations or the installation or erection of improvements) at the Site. The date of Construction Start will be evidenced by and subject to Seller’s delivery to Buyer of a certificate substantially in the form attached as Exhibit J hereto, and the date certified therein shall be the “Construction Start Date.” Subject to the other terms of this Agreement, Seller shall cause Construction Start to occur no later than the Guaranteed Construction Start Date.
b. Seller may extend the Guaranteed Construction Start Date (in addition to any extensions pursuant to a Development Cure Period) by paying Daily Delay Damages to Buyer for each day Seller desires to extend the Guaranteed Construction Start Date, not to exceed a total of one hundred twenty (120) days of extensions by such payment of Daily Delay Damages. On or before the date that is ten (10) days prior to the then-current Guaranteed Construction Start Date (which may have already been extended due to a Development Cure Period or a prior payment of Daily Delay Damages), Seller shall provide notice and payment to Buyer of the Daily Delay Damages for the number of days of extension to the Guaranteed Construction Start Date. If Seller achieves Construction Start prior to the Guaranteed Construction Start Date, as extended by the payment of Daily Delay Damages (and as may have been further extended by a Development Cure Period), Buyer shall refund to Seller the Daily Delay Damages for each day Seller achieves Construction Start prior to the Guaranteed Construction Start Date times the Daily Delay Damages, not to exceed the total amount of Daily Delay Damages paid by Seller pursuant to this Section 1(b). Additionally, if Seller achieves Commercial Operation on or before the Guaranteed Commercial Operation Date (not including any extensions to such date resulting from Seller’s payment of Commercial Operation Delay Damages, but as may be extended pursuant to a Development Cure Period), then Buyer shall refund to Seller all Daily Delay Damages paid by Seller and not previously refunded by Buyer. If Seller achieves Commercial Operation after the Guaranteed Commercial Operation Date (not including any extensions to such date resulting from Seller’s payment of Commercial Operation Delay Damages, but as may be extended pursuant to a Development Cure Period), but in fewer days than the number of days by which Seller missed the Guaranteed Agenda Page 401

Exhibit B - 2
Construction Start Date (not including any extensions to such date resulting from Seller’s payment of Daily Delay Damages, but as may be extended pursuant to any Development Cure Period), then Buyer shall refund to Seller an amount equal to fifty percent (50%) of the Daily Delay Damages for the difference between (i) the number of days by which Seller missed the Guaranteed Construction Start Date (not including any extensions to such date resulting from Seller’s payment of Daily Delay Damages, but as may be extended pursuant to any Development Cure Period), minus (ii) the number of days by which Seller missed the Guaranteed Commercial Operation Date (not including any extensions to such date resulting from Seller’s payment of Commercial Operation Delay Damages, but as may be extended pursuant to any Development Cure Period). For illustrative purposes only, if Seller misses the Guaranteed Construction Start Date (not including any extensions to such date resulting from Seller’s payment of Daily Delay Damages, but as may be extended pursuant to any Development Cure Period) by ten (10) days, but only misses the Guaranteed Commercial Operation Date (not including any extensions to such date resulting from Seller’s payment of Commercial Operation Delay Damages, but accounting for any extensions to such date pursuant to any Development Cure Period) by four (4) days, then Buyer shall refund to Seller an amount equal to fifty percent (50%) of six (6) days’ worth of Daily Delay Damages.

2. Commercial Operation of the Facility. “Commercial Operation” means the condition existing when Seller has fulfilled all of the conditions precedent in Section 2.2 of the Agreement and provided Notice to Buyer substantially in the form of Exhibit H (the “COD Certificate”).
a. Subject to the other terms of this Agreement, Seller shall cause Commercial Operation for the Facility to occur by the Guaranteed Commercial Operation Date.

Seller shall notify Buyer that it intends to achieve Commercial Operation at least sixty (60) days before the anticipated Commercial Operation Date. b. In addition to any extensions pursuant to any Development Cure Period, Seller may extend the Guaranteed Commercial Operation Date by paying Commercial Operation Delay Damages to Buyer for each day Seller desires to extend the Guaranteed Commercial Operation Date, not to exceed a total of ninety (90) days of extensions by such payment of Commercial Operation Delay Damages. On or before the date that is ten (10) days prior to the then-current Guaranteed Commercial Operation Date (which may have already been extended due to a Development Cure Period or a prior payment of Daily Delay Damages), Seller shall provide Notice and payment to Buyer of the Commercial Operation Delay Damages for the number of days of extension to the Guaranteed Commercial Operation Date.

If Seller achieves Commercial Operation prior to the Guaranteed Commercial Operation Date as extended by the payment of Commercial Operation Delay Damages (and as may have been further extended by a Development Cure Period), Buyer shall refund to Seller the Commercial Operation Delay Damages for each day Seller achieves Commercial Operation prior to the Guaranteed Commercial Operation Date times the Commercial Operation Delay Damages, not to exceed the Agenda Page 402

Exhibit B - 3
total amount of Commercial Operation Delay Damages paid by Seller pursuant to this Section 2(b).

3. Termination for Failure to Achieve Commercial Operation. If the Facility has not achieved Commercial Operation on or before the Guaranteed Commercial Operation Date (as may be extended hereunder), Buyer may elect to terminate this Agreement in accordance with Sections 11.1(b)(ii) and 11.2.

4. Extension of the Guaranteed Dates. The Guaranteed Construction Start Date and the Guaranteed Commercial Operation Date shall, subject to notice and documentation requirements set forth below, both be automatically extended on a day-for-day basis (the “Development Cure Period”) for the duration of any and all delays arising out of the following circumstances to the extent the following circumstances are not the result of Seller’s failure to take all commercially reasonable actions to meet its requirements and deadlines:
a. Seller has not acquired by the Expected Construction Start Date all material permits, consents, licenses, approvals, or authorizations from any Governmental Authority required for Seller to own, construct, interconnect, operate or maintain the Facility and to permit Seller and the Facility to make available and sell Product, despite the exercise of diligent and commercially reasonable efforts by Seller; or b. a Force Majeure Event occurs; or
c. the Interconnection Facilities or Reliability Network Upgrades are not complete and ready for the Facility to connect and sell Product at the Delivery Point by the Guaranteed Commercial Operation Date, despite the exercise of diligent and commercially reasonable efforts by Seller; or
d. Buyer has not made all necessary arrangements to receive the Facility Energy at the Delivery Point by the Guaranteed Commercial Operation Date.

Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the cumulative extensions granted under the Development Cure Period (other than the extensions granted pursuant to clause 4(d) above) shall not exceed one hundred eighty (180) days, for any reason, including a Force Majeure Event, and the cumulative extensions granted to the Guaranteed Commercial Operation Date by the payment of Commercial Operation Delay Damages and any Development Cure Period(s) (other than the extensions granted pursuant to clause 4(d) above) shall not exceed two hundred seventy (270) days. Upon request from Buyer, Seller shall provide documentation demonstrating to Buyer’s reasonable satisfaction that the delays described above did not result from Seller’s actions or failure to take commercially reasonable actions.

5. Failure to Reach Guaranteed PV Capacity or Guaranteed Storage Capacity. a. Guaranteed PV Capacity. If, at Commercial Operation, the Installed PV Capacity is less than one hundred percent (100%) of the Guaranteed PV Capacity, Seller shall have ninety (90) days after the Commercial Operation Date to install additional capacity and/or Network Upgrades such that the Installed PV Capacity Agenda Page 403

Exhibit B - 4
is equal to (but not greater than) the Guaranteed PV Capacity, and Seller shall provide to Buyer a new certificate substantially in the form attached as Exhibit I-1 hereto specifying the new Installed PV Capacity. If Seller fails to construct the Guaranteed PV Capacity by such date, Seller shall pay “PV Capacity Damages” to Buyer, in an amount equal to Two Hundred Fifty Thousand Dollars ($250,000) for each MW that the Guaranteed PV Capacity exceeds the Installed PV Capacity. b. Guaranteed Storage Capacity. If, at Commercial Operation, the Installed Storage Capacity is less than one hundred percent (100%) of the Guaranteed Storage Capacity, Seller shall have ninety (90) days after the Commercial Operation Date to install additional capacity and/or Network Upgrades such that the Installed Storage Capacity is equal to (but not greater than) one hundred percent (100%) of the Guaranteed Storage Capacity, and Seller shall provide to Buyer a new certificate substantially in the form attached as Exhibit I-1 hereto specifying the new Installed Storage Capacity. If Seller fails to construct the Guaranteed Storage Capacity by such date, Seller shall pay “Storage Capacity Damages” to Buyer, in an amount equal to Two Hundred Fifty Thousand Dollars ($250,000) for each MW at four hours of continuous discharge that the Guaranteed Storage Capacity exceeds the Installed Storage Capacity.

Capacity Damages shall not be offset or reduced by the payment of Development Security, Performance Security, Delay Damages, or any other form of liquidated damages under this Agreement.

6. Buyer’s Right to Draw on Development Security. If Seller fails to timely pay any Daily Delay Damages or Commercial Operation Delay Damages, Buyer may draw upon the Development Security to satisfy Seller’s payment obligation thereof.

Exhibit C - 3
36370680v5
(B) If the YTD Annual Storage Capacity Availability times the Effective Storage Capacity is less than the Guaranteed Storage Availability times the Effective Storage Capacity, but greater than or equal to seventy percent (70%) of the Installed Storage Capacity, then:

Capacity Availability Factor = Guaranteed Storage Availability – YTD Annual Storage Capacity Availability
(C) If the product of [(i) YTD Annual Storage Capacity Availability plus (ii) Force Majeure Unavailability], times (iii) the Effective Storage Capacity is less than seventy percent (70%) of the Installed Storage Capacity, then:

Capacity Availability Factor = (Guaranteed Storage Availability – YTD Annual Storage Capacity Availability) * 1.5 – (Force Majeure Unavailability * 0.5)
provided, if the result of any of the calculations in clauses (A) through (C) above is greater than

1.0, then the Capacity Availability Factor shall be deemed to be equal to 1.0. “Force Majeure Unavailability” means total YTD unavailable Calculation Intervals that resulted from a Force Majeure Event for which Seller is the claiming party divided by the total YTD Calculation Intervals.
(e) Test Energy. Test Energy is compensated in accordance with Section 3.6. (f) Tax Credits. The Parties agree that the neither the Renewable Rate, the Storage Rate nor the Test Energy Rate are subject to adjustment or amendment if Seller fails to receive any Tax Credits, or if any Tax Credits expire, are repealed or otherwise cease to apply to Seller or the Facility in whole or in part, or Seller or its investors are unable to benefit from any Tax Credits.

Seller shall bear all risks, financial and otherwise, throughout the Contract Term, associated with Seller’s or the Facility’s eligibility to receive Tax Credits or to qualify for accelerated depreciation for Seller’s accounting, reporting or Tax purposes. The obligations of the Parties hereunder, including those obligations set forth herein regarding the purchase and price for and Seller’s obligation to deliver Facility Energy and Product, shall be effective regardless of whether construction of the Facility (or any portion thereof) or the sale of Facility Energy is eligible for, or receives Tax Credits during the Contract Term.

GUARANTEED ENERGY PRODUCTION DAMAGES CALCULATION
In accordance with Section 4.7, if Seller fails to achieve the Guaranteed Energy Production during any Performance Measurement Period, a liquidated damages payment shall be due from Seller to Buyer, calculated as follows:
[(A – B) * (C – D)] – (E + F)
where:

A = the Guaranteed Energy Production amount for the Performance Measurement Period, in MWh
B = the Adjusted Energy Production amount for the Performance Measurement Period, in MWh
C = Replacement price for the Performance Measurement Period, in $/MWh, which is the sum of (a) the simple average of the Integrated Forward Market hourly price for all the hours in the Performance Measurement Period, as published by the CAISO, for the Existing Zone Generation Trading Hub (as defined in the CAISO Tariff) for the Delivery Point, plus (b) the market value of Replacement Green Attributes
D = the Renewable Rate, in $/MWh
E = The amount of Energy Replacement Damages paid by Seller with respect to the immediately preceding Performance Measurement Period F = The product of (a) the amount of Replacement Product in MWhs delivered by Seller in the immediately preceding Contract Year and (b) the price which is (C – D)
“Adjusted Energy Production” shall mean the sum of the following: PV Energy + Deemed Delivered Energy + Lost Output + Replacement Product. “Replacement Energy” means energy produced by a facility other than the Facility, that is provided by Seller to Buyer as Replacement Product, in an amount equal to the amount of Replacement Green Attributes provided by Seller as Replacement Product for the same Performance Measurement Period.
“Replacement Green Attributes” means Renewable Energy Credits of the same Portfolio Content Category (i.e., PCC1) as the Green Attributes portion of the Product and of the same year of production as the Renewable Energy Credits that would have been generated by the Facility.

Agenda Page 415

Exhibit G - 2
“Replacement Product” means (a) Replacement Energy, and (b) Replacement Green Attributes in an amount not to exceed ten percent (10%) of the Expected Energy for the previous Contract Year.

No payment shall be due if the calculation of (a) (A - B), (b) (C - D), or (c) [(A – B) * (C – D)] – (E + F), yields a negative number. In no event will Buyer owe any payment to Seller pursuant to this Exhibit G.

Within sixty (60) days after each Contract Year, Buyer shall send Seller Notice of the amount of damages owing, if any, which shall be payable to Buyer before the later of (a) thirty (30) days of such Notice and (b) ninety (90) days after each Performance Measurement Period, provided that the amount of damages owing shall be adjusted to account for Replacement Product, if any, delivered after each applicable Performance Measurement Period.

Agenda Page 438

Exhibit O - 6
(4) Record and store the Storage Facility SOC after the earlier of (a) the Storage Facility has reached 100% SOC or (b) five (5) hours of continuous charging. Such data point shall be used for purposes of calculation of the Battery Charging Factor.
(5) Record and store the AC energy charged to the Storage Facility as measured at the Storage Facility Meter Energy In.
(6) Following an agreed-upon rest period, command a real power discharge that results in an AC power output of the Storage Facility’s maximum discharging level and maintain the discharging state until the earlier of (a) the Facility has discharged at the maximum discharging level for four (4) consecutive hours, (b) the Storage Facility has reached 0% SOC, or (c) the sustained discharging level is at least 2% less than the maximum discharging level.
(7) Record and store the Storage Facility SOC after four (4) hours of continuous discharging. Such data point shall be used for purposes of calculation of the Battery Discharging Factor. If the Storage Facility SOC remains above zero percent (0%) after discharging at a rate at or above the Guaranteed Storage Capacity (or at or above the Installed Storage Capacity after a Commercial Operation Storage Capacity Test) for four (4) consecutive hours pursuant to Part III.A.6(a), the SOC will be deemed 0 for purposes of calculating the Battery Discharging Factor. (8) Record and store the Discharging Energy as measured at the Storage Facility Meter. Such data point shall be used for purposes of calculation the Effective Storage Capacity.
(9) If the Storage Facility has not reached 0% SOC pursuant to Section III.A.6, continue discharging the Storage Facility until it reaches a 0% SOC.
(10) Record and store the Discharging Energy (in MWh) as measured at the Storage Facility Meter, if applicable.
(11) Record and store the Energy Out from the commencement of discharging pursuant to Part III.A.5 until the Storage Facility has reached a 0% SOC pursuant to either Part III.A.6 or Part III.A.9, as applicable. • Test Results
(1) The resulting Effective Storage Capacity measurement is the sum of the total Discharging Energy at the Storage Facility Meter divided by four (4) hours.
(2) The resulting initial Efficiency Rate is calculated as the total amount of Energy Out (as reported under Section III.A(11) above) divided by the Agenda Page 439

Exhibit O - 7
total amount of Energy In (as reported under Section III.A(5) above),and expressed as a percentage, and shall be used for the calculation of the Efficiency Rate Factor in Exhibit C until updated following the first month of operations.

ANNUAL STORAGE CAPACITY AVAILABILITY CALCULATION
(a) Following the end of each calendar month during the Delivery Term, Buyer shall calculate the year-to-date (YTD) “Annual Storage Capacity Availability” for the current Contract Year using the formula set forth below:

Annual Storage Capacity Availability (%) = 1 –
Unavailable Calculation Intervals
Total YTD Calculation Intervals
“Calculation Interval” or “C.I.” means each successive five-minute interval, but excluding all such intervals which by the express terms of the Agreement are disregarded or excluded.
“Unavailable Calculation Intervals” means the sum of year-to-date unavailable Calculation Intervals for the applicable Contract Year, where for each Calculation Interval:
“A” is the “Available Effective Storage Capacity”, which shall be the sum of the capacity, in MW AC, expected from each system inverter in such Calculation Interval (based on normal operating conditions pursuant to the manufacturer’s guidelines), but “A” shall never exceed the Effective Storage Capacity.
“Storage Capability” means the sum of the following (taking into account the SOC at the time of calculation): (i) the energy throughput capability in MWhs in the applicable Calculation Interval that the Storage Facility is available to be charged (calculated as the available battery charging capability (in MWh) in the applicable Calculation Interval x the Battery Charging Factor) and (ii) the energy throughput capability in MWhs in the applicable Calculation Interval that the Storage Facility is available to be discharged (calculated as the available battery discharging capability (in MWh) in the applicable Calculation Interval x the Battery Discharging Factor). In calculating Storage Capability, the “available battery charging capability” and “available battery discharging capability” are calculated as the product of (1) the count of available system cells in such Calculation Interval, multiplied by (2) the capability, in MWh, expected from each such system cell (based on normal operating conditions pursuant to the manufacturer’s guidelines), but Storage Capability shall never exceed the Effective Storage Capacity x four (4) hours.

Agenda Page 442

Exhibit P - 2
“Total YTD Calculation Intervals” means, for each applicable Contract Year, the total number of Calculation Intervals year-to-date up through and including the month for which the Annual Storage Capacity Availability is being calculated. (b) The “available Effective Storage Capacity” and “Storage Capability” in the above calculations shall be the lower of (i) such amounts reported by Seller’s real-time EMS data feed to Buyer for the Storage Facility for such Calculation Interval, and (ii) Seller’s most recent Availability Notice (as updated pursuant to Section 4.3). Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, the calculations of “available Effective Storage Capacity” and “Storage Capability” in the foregoing shall be based solely on the availability of the Storage Facility to charge or discharge Energy between the Storage Facility and the Generating Facility or Delivery Point, as applicable (excluding for reasons at the high-voltage side of the Delivery Point or beyond).
(c) If the total rated power of the Storage Facility inverters is less than the Installed Storage Capacity divided by 0.95 charging and divided by 0.95 discharging expressed in kVA at 45°C, then Buyer shall have the right, in its reasonable discretion, to apply an ambient air temperature availability derate to the applicable Calculation Interval.

E. It is a requirement under the Financing Agreement and the PPA that CPA and the other Parties hereto shall have executed and delivered this Consent.

AGREEMENT
In consideration of the foregoing, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and Agenda Page 453

Exhibit T - 2
adequacy of which are hereby acknowledged, and intending to be legally bound, the Parties hereto hereby agree as follows:

SECTION 1. CONSENT TO ASSIGNMENT, ETC.

1.1 Consent and Agreement.

CPA hereby acknowledges:
(a) Notice of and consents to the assignment as collateral security to Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, of the Assigned Interest; and (b) The right (but not the obligation) of Collateral Agent in the exercise of its rights and remedies under the Financing Documents, to make all demands, give all notices, take all actions and exercise all rights of Project Company permitted under the PPA (subject to CPA’s rights and defenses under the PPA and the terms of this Consent) and accepts any such exercise; provided, insofar as the Collateral Agent exercises any such rights under the PPA or makes any claims with respect to payments or other obligations under the PPA, the terms and conditions of the PPA applicable to such exercise of rights or claims shall apply to Collateral Agent to the same extent as to Project Company.

1.2 Project Company’s Acknowledgement.

Each of Project Company and Collateral Agent hereby acknowledges and agrees that, following the occurrence of a default by Project Company under the PPA, CPA is authorized to act in accordance with Collateral Agent’s instructions and the terms of this Agreement, and that, other than arising due to the negligence or willful misconduct of CPA, CPA shall bear no liability to Project Company or Collateral Agent in connection therewith, including any liability for failing to act in accordance with Project Company’s instructions.

1.3 Right to Cure.

If Project Company defaults in the performance of any of its obligations under the PPA, or upon the occurrence or non-occurrence of any event or condition under the PPA which would immediately or with the passage of any applicable grace period or the giving of notice, or both, enable CPA to terminate or suspend its performance under the PPA (a “PPA Default”), CPA will not terminate or suspend its performance under the PPA until it first gives written notice of such PPA Default to Collateral Agent and affords Collateral Agent the right to cure such PPA Default within the applicable cure period under the PPA, which cure period shall run concurrently with that afforded Project Company under the PPA. In addition, if Collateral Agent gives CPA written notice prior to the expiration of the applicable cure period under the PPA of Collateral Agent’s intention to cure such PPA Default (which notice shall include a reasonable description of the time during which it anticipates to cure such PPA Default) and is diligently proceeding to cure such PPA Default, notwithstanding the applicable cure period under the PPA, Collateral Agent shall have a period of ninety (90) days (or, if such PPA Default is for failure by the Project Company to pay an amount to CPA which is due and payable under the PPA other than to provide PPA Collateral, thirty (30) days, or, if such PPA Default is for failure by Project Company to provide PPA Collateral, ten (10) Business Days) from the Collateral Agent’s receipt of the notice of such Agenda Page 454

Exhibit T - 3
PPA Default from CPA to cure such PPA Default; provided, that, such additional cure period for the Collateral Agent shall commence on the later of (1) the end of the Project Company’s cure period under the PPA and (2) the date the Collateral Agent receives notice of the PPA Default; provided, further, (a) if possession of the Facility is necessary to cure any such non-monetary PPA Default and Collateral Agent has commenced foreclosure proceedings within sixty (60) days after notice of the PPA Default and is diligently pursuing such foreclosure proceedings, Collateral Agent will be allowed a reasonable time, not to exceed one hundred eighty (180) days after the notice of the PPA Default, to complete such proceedings and cure such PPA Default, and (b) if Collateral Agent is prohibited from curing any such PPA Default by any process, stay or injunction issued by any Governmental Authority or pursuant to any bankruptcy or insolvency proceeding or other similar proceeding involving Project Company, then the time periods specified herein for curing a PPA Default shall be extended for the period of such prohibition, so long as Collateral Agent has diligently pursued removal of such process, stay or injunction. Collateral Agent shall provide CPA with reports concerning the status of efforts to cure a PPA Default upon CPA’s reasonable request.

1.4 Substitute Owner.

Subject to Section 1.7, the Parties agree that if Collateral Agent notifies CPA (such notice, a “Financing Document Default Notice”) that an event of default has occurred and is continuing under the Financing Documents (a “Financing Document Event of Default”) then, upon a judicial foreclosure sale, non-judicial foreclosure sale, deed in lieu of foreclosure or other transfer following a Financing Document Event of Default, Collateral Agent (or its designee) shall be substituted for Project Company (the “Substitute Owner”) under the PPA, and, subject to Sections

1.7(b) and 1.7(c) below, CPA and Substitute Owner will recognize each other as counterparties under the PPA and will continue to perform their respective obligations (including those obligations accruing to CPA and the Project Company prior to the existence of the Substitute Owner) under the PPA in favor of each other in accordance with the terms thereof; provided, before CPA is required to recognize the Substitute Owner, the Substitute Owner must have demonstrated to CPA’s reasonable satisfaction that the Substitute Owner meets the qualifications of a Permitted Transferee under the PPA (a “Permitted Transferee”). For purposes of the foregoing, CPA shall be entitled to assume that any such purported exercise of rights by Collateral Agent that results in substitution of a Substitute Owner under the PPA is in accordance with the Financing Documents without independent investigation thereof but shall have the right to require that the Collateral Agent and its designee (if applicable) provide reasonable evidence demonstrating the same.

1.5 Replacement Agreements.

Subject to Section 1.7, if the PPA is terminated, rejected or otherwise invalidated as a result of any bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or similar proceeding affecting Project Company, its owner(s) or guarantor(s), and if Collateral Agent or its designee directly or indirectly takes possession of, or title to, the Facility (including possession by a receiver or title by foreclosure or deed in lieu of foreclosure) (“Replacement Owner”), CPA shall, and Collateral Agent shall cause Replacement Owner to, enter into a new agreement with one another for the balance of the obligations under the PPA remaining to be performed having terms substantially the same as the terms of the PPA with respect to the remaining Term (“Replacement PPA”); provided, before CPA is required to enter into a Replacement PPA, the Replacement Owner must have demonstrated to Agenda Page 455

Exhibit T - 4
CPA’s reasonable satisfaction that the Replacement Owner satisfies the requirements of a Permitted Transferee. For purposes of the foregoing, CPA is entitled to assume that any such purported exercise of rights by Collateral Agent that results in a Replacement Owner is in accordance with the Financing Documents without independent investigation thereof but shall have the right to require that the Collateral Agent and its designee (if applicable) provide reasonable evidence demonstrating the same. Notwithstanding the execution and delivery of a Replacement PPA, to the extent CPA is, or was otherwise prior to its termination as described in this Section 1.5, entitled under the PPA, CPA may suspend performance of its obligations under such Replacement PPA, unless and until all PPA Defaults of Project Company under the PPA or Replacement PPA have been cured.

1.6 Transfer.

Subject to Section 1.7, a Substitute Owner or a Replacement Owner may assign all of its interest in the Facility and the PPA and a Replacement PPA to a natural person, corporation, trust, business trust, joint venture, joint stock company, association, company, limited liability company, partnership, Governmental Authority or other entity (a “Person”) to which the Facility is transferred; provided, the proposed transferee shall have demonstrated to CPA’s reasonable satisfaction that such proposed transferee satisfies the requirements of a Permitted Transferee.

1.7 Assumption of Obligations.
(a) Transferee.

Any transferee under Section 1.6 shall expressly assume in a writing reasonably satisfactory to CPA all of the obligations of Project Company, Substitute Owner or Replacement Owner under the PPA or Replacement PPA, as applicable, including posting and collateral assignment of the PPA Collateral. Upon such assignment and the cure of any outstanding PPA Default, and payment of all other amounts due and payable to CPA in respect of the PPA or such Replacement PPA, the transferor shall be released from any further liability under the PPA or Replacement PPA, as applicable.
(b) Substitute Owner.

Subject to Section 1.7(c), any Substitute Owner pursuant to Section 1.4 shall be required to perform Project Company’s obligations under the PPA, including curing defaults, posting and collateral assignment of the PPA Collateral; provided, the obligations of such Substitute Owner shall be no more than those of Project Company under the PPA. (c) No Liability.

CPA acknowledges and agrees that neither Collateral Agent nor any Secured Party shall have any liability or obligation under the PPA as a result of this Consent (except to the extent Collateral Agent or a Secured Party is a Substitute Owner or Replacement Owner) nor shall Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party be obligated or required to (i) perform any of Project Company’s obligations under the PPA, except as provided in Sections 1.7(a) and 1.7(b) and to the extent Collateral Agent or a Secured Party is a Substitute Owner or Replacement Owner, or (ii) take any action to collect or enforce any claim for payment assigned under the Financing Documents. If Collateral Agent becomes a Substitute Owner pursuant to Section 1.4 or enters into Agenda Page 456

Exhibit T - 5
a Replacement PPA, Collateral Agent shall not have any personal liability to CPA under the PPA or Replacement PPA and the sole recourse of CPA in seeking enforcement of such obligations against Collateral Agent shall be to the aggregate interest of the Secured Parties in the Facility; provided, such limited recourse shall not limit CPA’s right to seek equitable or injunctive relief against Collateral Agent, or CPA’s rights with respect to any offset rights expressly allowed under the PPA, a Replacement PPA or the PPA Collateral.

1.8 Delivery of Notices.

CPA shall deliver to Collateral Agent, concurrently with the delivery thereof to Project Company, a copy of each notice, request or demand given by CPA to Project Company pursuant to the PPA relating to (a) a PPA Default by Project Company under the PPA, (b) any claim regarding Force Majeure by CPA under the PPA, (c) any notice of dispute under the PPA, (d) any notice of intent to terminate or any termination notice, and (e) any matter that would require the consent of Collateral Agent pursuant to Section 1.11 or any other provision of this Consent. Collateral Agent acknowledges that delivery of such notice, request and demand shall satisfy CPA’s obligation to give Collateral Agent a notice of PPA Default under Section 1.3.

Title to and risk of loss related to the Green Attributes shall pass and transfer from Seller to Buyer upon the transfer of such Green Attributes in accordance with WREGIS.

4.3 Forecasting. Seller shall provide the forecasts described below. Seller shall use commercially reasonable efforts to forecast accurately and to transmit such information in a format reasonably acceptable to Buyer (or Buyer’s designee).
(a) Annual Forecast of Energy for First Contract Year. No less than forty-five (45) days before the first day of the first Contract Year of the Delivery Term, and as updated by Seller from time to time thereafter in its discretion or as may be required below, Seller shall provide to Buyer and the SC (if applicable) a non-binding forecast of each month’s average-day hourly expected Energy from the Generating Facility (the “Forecasted Product”), by hour, for the following calendar year in a form substantially similar to the table found in Exhibit F, or as reasonably requested by Buyer (the “Annual Forecast”).
(b) [Reserved]
(c) Day-Ahead Forecast. By 5:30 AM Pacific Prevailing Time on the Business Day immediately preceding the date of delivery, or as otherwise specified by Buyer consistent with Prudent Operating Practice, Seller shall provide Buyer (or arrange for an Approved Forecast Vendor to provide Buyer) with a non-binding forecast of the hourly expected Forecasted Product, in each case, for each hour of the immediately succeeding day (“Day-Ahead Forecast”). A Day-Ahead Forecast provided in a day prior to any non-Business Day(s) shall include non-binding forecasts for the immediate day, each succeeding non-Business Day and the next Business Day.

Each Day-Ahead Forecast shall clearly identify, for each hour, Seller’s (or the Approved Forecast Vendor’s) best estimate of the hourly expected Forecasted Product. Such Day-Ahead Forecasts shall be sent to Buyer’s on-duty Scheduling Coordinator. If Seller (or the Approved Forecast Vendor) fails to provide Buyer with a Day-Ahead Forecast as required herein for any period, then for such unscheduled delivery period only Buyer shall rely on any Real-Time Forecast or the Annual Forecast or Buyer’s best estimate based on information reasonably available to Buyer. (d) Real-Time Forecasts. During the Delivery Term, Seller shall notify (or arrange for an Approved Forecast Vendor to notify) Buyer of any changes from the Day-Ahead Forecast of one (1) MW or more in the hourly expected Forecasted Product (“Real-Time Forecast”), in each case, whether due to Forced Facility Outage, Force Majeure Event or other cause, as soon as reasonably possible, but no later than one (1) hour prior to the deadline for submitting schedules to the CAISO in accordance with the rules for participation in the Real-Time Market. If the Forecasted Product changes by at least one (1) MW as of a time that is less than one Agenda Page 514
35 (1) hour prior to the Real-Time Market deadline, but before such deadline, then Seller must notify (or arrange for an Approved Forecast Vendor to notify) Buyer as soon as reasonably possible. Such Real-Time Forecasts of PV Energy (including those provided by an Approved Forecast Vendor) shall contain information regarding the beginning date and time of the event resulting in the change in any Forecasted Product, as applicable, the expected end date and time of such event, and any other information required by the CAISO or reasonably requested by Buyer. These Real-Time Forecasts shall be communicated in a method acceptable to Buyer; provided, Buyer specifies the method no later than sixty (60) days prior to the effective date of such requirement. In the event Buyer fails to provide Notice of an acceptable method for communications under this Section

4.3(d), then Seller (or the Approved Forecast Vendor, as applicable) shall send such communications by telephone and e-mail to Buyer.
(e) Forced Facility Outages. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, with respect to any Forced Facility Outage, Seller shall use commercially reasonable efforts to notify (or arrange for an Approved Forecast Vendor to notify) Buyer of such outage within ten (10) minutes of the commencement of the Forced Facility Outage. Seller or the Approved Forecast Vendor shall inform Buyer of any developments that are reasonably likely to affect either the duration of such outage or the availability of the Facility during or after the end of such outage. (f) Forecasting Penalties. If with respect to any given hour Seller has failed to provide the forecast required in Section 4.3(d) and has failed to arrange for an Approved Forecast Vendor to provide such forecast, and due to such failures Buyer incurs a loss or penalty resulting from its scheduling activities with respect to Facility Energy during such hour, Seller shall be responsible for a “Forecasting Penalty” for each such hour equal to the product of (A) the absolute difference (if any) between (i) the expected PV Energy for such hour set forth in the Day-Ahead Forecast (or Annual Forecast to the extent no Day-Ahead Forecast was Delivered to Buyer), and (ii) the actual PV Energy, multiplied by (B) the absolute value of the Real-Time Price in such hour.

Settlement of Forecasting Penalties shall occur as set forth in Article 8 of this Agreement. (g) CAISO Tariff Requirements. Seller shall comply with all applicable obligations for Variable Energy Resources under the CAISO Tariff and the Eligible Intermittent Resource Protocol, including providing appropriate operational data and meteorological data, and shall fully cooperate with Buyer, Buyer’s SC, and CAISO, in providing all data, information, and authorizations required thereunder.

4.4 Dispatch Down/Curtailment.
(a) General. Seller agrees to reduce the amount of PV Energy and/or Discharging Energy produced by the Facility, by the amount and for the period set forth in any Curtailment Order, Buyer Curtailment Order, or notice received from CAISO in respect of a Buyer Bid Curtailment; provided, Seller is not required to reduce such amount to the extent it is inconsistent with the limitations of the Facility set out in the Operating Restrictions; provided further, delivery of excess Facility Energy during a Settlement Interval in which the Generating Facility and/or Storage Facility is ramping down or ramping up to the Dispatch Operating Target or Operating Instruction shall not be considered a failure by Seller to comply with a Curtailment Order, Buyer Curtailment Order, or notice received from CAISO in respect of a Buyer Bid Curtailment, provided that the Generating Facility and/or Storage Facility meets the Dispatch Agenda Page 515
Agenda Page 516
37 the Charging Energy from the Generating Facility to the Storage Facility. Except as expressly set forth in this Agreement, including Section 4.5(c), Section 4.5(k)(i), and Section 4.9(d)(i), Buyer shall be responsible for paying all CAISO costs and charges associated with charging of the Storage Facility. The Parties acknowledge and agree that, although Charging Energy will exclusively be PV Energy delivered directly from the Generating Facility to the Storage Facility prior to the Grid Charging Effective Date, for purposes of CAISO financial settlements the Parties understand that CAISO will treat Charging Energy as being procured by Buyer from the CAISO Grid as if such Charging Energy were grid energy, and that as a result the CAISO will have separate financial settlements (i) for deliveries of PV Energy to the Generating Facility Meter and (ii) for deliveries of Charging Energy to the Storage Facility Meter. If CAISO rules or protocols become inconsistent with such understanding, the Parties shall reasonably coordinate to amend or modify this Agreement to carry out the intent hereof, such agreement not to be unreasonably delayed, conditioned or withheld.
(b) Charging Notices. Buyer shall have the right to charge the Storage Facility seven (7) days per week and twenty-four (24) hours per day (including holidays), by causing Charging Notices to be issued; provided, Buyer’s right to cause Charging Notices to be issued is subject to the requirements and limitations set forth in this Agreement, including the Operating Restrictions, the CAISO Tariff, the provisions of Section 4.5(a), and the availability of Charging Energy. Each Charging Notice issued in accordance with this Agreement shall be effective unless and until such Charging Notice is modified with an updated Charging Notice (including as automatically updated in accordance with the definition of Charging Notice). (c) No Unauthorized Charging. Seller shall not charge the Storage Facility during the Delivery Term other than pursuant to a valid Charging Notice, in connection with a Buyer Dispatched Test or Seller Initiated Test (including Facility maintenance or a Storage Capacity Test), or pursuant to a notice from CAISO, the Transmission Provider, or any other Governmental Authority; provided, if Seller receives a Charging Notice that is not in compliance with the Operating Restrictions, Seller shall notify the SC as soon as reasonably practicable, but in no event later than one (1) hour following receipt of such non-compliant Charging Notice, and Seller shall comply with the Charging Notice to the fullest extent possible without violating the Operating Restrictions until such time as Seller receives a modified Charging Notice. If, during the Delivery Term, Seller (i) charges the Storage Facility to a Stored Energy Level greater than the Stored Energy Level provided for in a Charging Notice, or (ii) charges the Storage Facility in violation of the first sentence of this Section 4.5(c), then Section 4.5(k) shall apply and Buyer shall be entitled to discharge such energy and entitled to all of the CAISO revenues and benefits (including Storage Product) associated with such discharge. Notwithstanding the foregoing, during any Curtailment Period, Buyer shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause all curtailed PV Energy to be used as Charging Energy.
(d) Discharging Notices; No Unauthorized Discharging. Buyer shall have the right to discharge the Storage Facility seven (7) days per week and twenty-four (24) hours per day (including holidays), by causing Discharging Notices to be issued, subject to the requirements and limitations set forth in this Agreement, the CAISO Tariff including the Operating Restrictions and the existing level of charge of the Storage Facility. Each Discharging Notice issued in accordance with this Agreement shall be effective unless and until Buyer’s SC or the CAISO modifies such Discharging Notice by providing the Facility with an updated Discharging Notice (including as Agenda Page 517
38 automatically updated in accordance with the definition of Discharging Notice). Seller shall not discharge the Storage Facility during the Delivery Term other than pursuant to a valid Discharging Notice, in connection with a Buyer Dispatch Test or Seller Initiated Test (including Facility maintenance or a Storage Capacity Test), or pursuant to a notice from CAISO, the Transmission Provider, or any other Governmental Authority (it being acknowledged, however, that any unintended or accidental deviations in charging, discharging or use of the Storage Facility expressly addressed in Section 4.5(k) shall be considered permitted uses hereunder and shall not result in a breach of or give rise to Seller liability under this Section 4.5(d)); provided, if Seller receives a Discharging Notice that is not in compliance with the Operating Restrictions, Seller shall notify the SC as soon as reasonably practicable, but in no event later than one (1) hour following receipt of such non-compliant Discharging Notice, and Seller shall comply with the Discharging Notice to the fullest extent possible without violating the Operating Restrictions until such time as Seller receives a modified Discharging Notice. (e) Curtailments. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, (i) during any Settlement Interval, Curtailment Orders, Buyer Curtailment Orders, and Buyer Bid Curtailments applicable to such Settlement Interval shall have priority over any Charging Notices and Discharging Notices applicable to such Settlement Interval, and (ii) Seller shall have no liability for violation of this Section 4.5 or any Charging Notice or Discharging Notice if and to the extent such violation is caused by Seller’s compliance with any Curtailment Order, Buyer Curtailment Order, Buyer Bid Curtailment or other instruction or direction from Buyer or its SC or a Governmental Authority or the Transmission Provider. Buyer’s SC shall have the right, but not the obligation, to provide Seller with updated Charging Notices and Discharging Notices during any Buyer Curtailment Order, Buyer Bid Curtailment or Curtailment Order consistent with CAISO rules and the Operating Restrictions.
(f) Consequences of Unauthorized Charging and Discharging. If Seller or anyone acting on behalf of Seller charges, discharges or otherwise uses the Storage Facility other than as permitted hereunder (it being acknowledged, however, that any unintended or accidental deviations in charging, discharging or use of the Storage Facility expressly addressed in Section

4.5(k) shall be considered permitted uses hereunder and shall not give rise to Seller liability under any other provisions hereof (including Sections 4.5(c), (d), and (f)), it shall be a breach by Seller and Seller shall reimburse Buyer for any costs (including the cost of Energy used for charging the Storage Facility, and any other CAISO costs, charges or penalties) arising therefrom and, if Seller fails to implement procedures reasonably acceptable to Buyer to prevent any further occurrences of the same, then it shall be a Seller Event of Default. (g) Requirements for Charging and Discharging Notices. Buyer shall ensure that all Charging Notices and Discharging Notices are issued in a manner consistent with all requirements of this Agreement, including all Operating Restrictions and the CAISO Tariff. (h) Pre-Commercial Operation Date Period, etc. Prior to the Commercial Operation Date, Buyer shall have no rights to issue or cause to be issued Charging Notices or Discharging Notices, and Seller shall have exclusive rights to test, charge and discharge the Storage Facility. Buyer and Buyer’s SC shall reasonably coordinate and cooperate with Seller with respect to Facility testing (including for Test Energy) prior to (and after) the Commercial Operation Date, and Seller shall only charge and discharge the Storage Facility in connection with Agenda Page 518
Agenda Page 519

Seller shall be permitted to reduce deliveries of Product as necessary to maintain health and safety pursuant to Section 6.2.

Notwithstanding anything in this Section 4.6 to the contrary, any such reductions in Product deliveries shall not excuse the Storage Facility’s unavailability for purposes of calculating the Annual Storage Capacity Availability to the extent the Storage Facility otherwise has an Unavailable Calculation Interval under Exhibit P.

4.7 Guaranteed Energy Production. During each Performance Measurement Period, Seller shall deliver to Buyer an amount of PV Energy, not including any Excess MWh, equal to no less than the Guaranteed Energy Production (as defined below). “Guaranteed Energy Production” means an amount of PV Energy, as measured in MWh, equal to one hundred sixty percent (160%) of the average annual Expected Energy for the two (2) Contract Years constituting such Performance Measurement Period. Seller shall be excused from achieving the Guaranteed Energy Production during any Performance Measurement Period only to the extent of any Buyer Default or other Buyer failure to perform that directly prevents Seller from being able to deliver PV Energy to the Delivery Point. For purposes of determining whether Seller has achieved the Guaranteed Energy Production, Seller shall be deemed to have delivered to Buyer the sum of (a) any Deemed Delivered Energy, plus (b) PV Energy in the amount it could reasonably have delivered to Buyer but was prevented from delivering to Buyer by reason of any Force Majeure Events, System Emergency, Transmission System Outage, or Curtailment Periods (“Lost Output”). If Seller fails to achieve the Guaranteed Energy Production amount in any Performance Measurement Period, Seller shall pay Buyer damages calculated in accordance with Exhibit G; provided, Seller may, as an alternative, provide Replacement Product (as defined in Exhibit G) delivered to Buyer at SP 15 EZ Gen Hub under a Day-Ahead Schedule as an IST within ninety (90) days after the conclusion of the applicable Performance Measurement Period (i) upon a schedule reasonably acceptable to Buyer, (ii) provided that such deliveries do not impose additional costs upon Buyer for which Seller refuses to provide reimbursement, and (iii) not to exceed ten percent (10%) of the Expected Energy for the previous Contract Year.

Agenda Page 521
Agenda Page 522
43 pursuant to Section B of Exhibit O shall be deemed Buyer-instructed dispatches of the Facility (“Buyer Dispatched Test”). Any test of the Storage Facility that is not a Buyer Dispatched Test (including all tests conducted prior to Commercial Operation, any Commercial Operation Storage Capacity Tests, any Storage Capacity Test conducted if the Effective Storage Capacity immediately prior to such Storage Capacity Test is below seventy percent (70%) of the Installed Storage Capacity, any test required by CAISO (including any test required to obtain or maintain CAISO Certification) and other Seller-requested discretionary tests or dispatches, at times and for durations reasonably agreed to by Buyer, that Seller deems necessary for purposes of reliably operating or maintaining the Storage Facility or for re-performing a required test within a reasonable number of days of the initial required test (considering the circumstances that led to the need for a retest)) shall be deemed a “Seller Initiated Test”. (i) For any Seller Initiated Test, other than as required by Exhibit O, Seller shall notify Buyer no later than twenty-four (24) hours prior thereto (or any shorter period reasonably acceptable to Buyer consistent with Prudent Operating Practices). (ii) No Charging Notices or Discharging Notices shall be issued during any Seller Initiated Test or Buyer Dispatched Test except as reasonably requested by Seller or Buyer to implement the applicable test. Periods during which Buyer Dispatched Tests render the Storage Facility (or any portion thereof, as applicable) unavailable shall be excluded for purposes of calculating the Annual Storage Capacity Availability. The Storage Facility shall be deemed unavailable during any Seller Initiated Test, and Buyer shall not dispatch or otherwise schedule the Storage Facility during such Seller Initiated Test. (d) Testing Costs and Revenues.
(i) For all Buyer Dispatched Tests, Buyer shall direct only Charging Energy to be used to charge the Storage Facility and Buyer shall be entitled to all CAISO revenues associated with a Storage Facility discharge during a Buyer Dispatched Test. For all Seller Initiated Tests, Seller shall reimburse Buyer the amount of Buyer’s payment for the Charging Energy for such Seller Initiated Test, and Seller shall be entitled to all CAISO revenues associated with the discharge of such Energy. Buyer shall pay to Seller, in the month following Buyer’s receipt of such CAISO revenues and otherwise in accordance with Exhibit C, all applicable CAISO revenues received by Buyer and associated with the discharge Energy associated with such Seller Initiated Test.
(ii) Buyer shall be responsible for all costs, expenses and fees payable or reimbursable to its representative(s) witnessing any Facility test. (iii) Except as set forth in Sections 4.9(d)(i) and (ii), all other costs of any testing of the Storage Facility shall be borne by Seller.

4.10 WREGIS. Seller shall, at its sole expense, but subject to Section 3.12, take all actions and execute all documents or instruments necessary to ensure that all WREGIS Certificates associated with all Renewable Energy Credits corresponding to all PV Energy are issued and tracked for purposes of satisfying the requirements of the California Renewables Portfolio Standard and transferred in a timely manner to Buyer for Buyer’s sole benefit, it being Agenda Page 523
44 acknowledged that Seller may not be able under WREGIS rules to complete all WREGIS registration requirements prior to the Commercial Operation Date. Seller shall transfer the Renewable Energy Credits to Buyer. Seller shall comply with all Laws, including the WREGIS Operating Rules, regarding the certification and transfer of such WREGIS Certificates to Buyer and Buyer shall be given sole title to all such WREGIS Certificates. Seller shall be deemed to have satisfied the warranty in Section 4.10(g), provided that Seller fulfills its obligations under Sections

4.10(a) through (g) below. In addition:
(a) Prior to the Commercial Operation Date, Seller shall register the Facility with WREGIS and establish an account with WREGIS (“Seller’s WREGIS Account”), which Seller shall maintain until the end of the Delivery Term. Seller shall transfer the WREGIS Certificates using “Forward Certificate Transfers” (as described in the WREGIS Operating Rules) from Seller’s WREGIS Account to the WREGIS account(s) of Buyer or the account(s) of a designee that Buyer identifies by Notice to Seller (“Buyer’s WREGIS Account”). Seller shall be responsible for all expenses associated with registering the Facility with WREGIS, establishing and maintaining Seller’s WREGIS Account, paying WREGIS Certificate issuance and transfer fees, and transferring WREGIS Certificates from Seller’s WREGIS Account to Buyer’s WREGIS Account.
(b) Seller shall cause Forward Certificate Transfers to occur on a monthly basis in accordance with the certification procedure established by the WREGIS Operating Rules. Since WREGIS Certificates will only be created for whole MWh amounts of PV Energy generated, any fractional MWh amounts (i.e., kWh) shall be carried forward until sufficient generation is accumulated for the creation of a WREGIS Certificate.
(c) Seller shall, at its sole expense, ensure that the WREGIS Certificates for a given calendar month correspond with the PV Energy for such calendar month as evidenced by the Facility’s metered data.
(d) Due to the ninety (90) day delay in the creation of WREGIS Certificates relative to the timing of invoice payment under Section 8.2, Buyer shall make an invoice payment for a given month in accordance with Section 8.2 before the WREGIS Certificates for such month are formally transferred to Buyer in accordance with the WREGIS Operating Rules and this Section 4.10. Notwithstanding this delay, Buyer shall have all right and title to all such WREGIS Certificates upon payment to Seller in accordance with Section 8.2. (e) A “WREGIS Certificate Deficit” means any deficit or shortfall in WREGIS Certificates delivered to Buyer for a calendar month as compared to the PV Energy for the same calendar month (taking into account the timing of WREGIS’ issuance of WREGIS Certificates in the normal course) (“Deficient Month”) caused by an error or omission of Seller.

If any WREGIS Certificate Deficit is caused by, or is the result of an error or omission of Seller, then the amount of PV Energy in the Deficient Month shall be reduced by three (3) times the amount of the WREGIS Certificate Deficit for purposes of calculating Buyer’s payment to Seller next coming due under Article 8 and the Guaranteed Energy Production for the applicable Contract Year; provided, such adjustment shall not apply to the extent that Seller either (x) resolves the WREGIS Certificate Deficit within ninety (90) days after the Deficient Month or (y) provides Replacement Green Attributes (as defined in Exhibit G) within ninety (90) days after the Deficient Agenda Page 524
45 Month (i) upon a schedule reasonably acceptable to Buyer and (ii) provided that such deliveries do not impose additional costs upon Buyer for which Seller refuses to provide reimbursement.

Without limiting Seller’s obligations under this Section 4.10, if a WREGIS Certificate Deficit is caused solely by an error or omission of WREGIS, the Parties shall cooperate in good faith to cause WREGIS to correct its error or omission.
(f) If WREGIS changes the WREGIS Operating Rules after the Effective Date or applies the WREGIS Operating Rules in a manner inconsistent with this Section 4.10 after the Effective Date, the Parties promptly shall modify this Section 4.10 as reasonably required to cause and enable Seller to transfer to Buyer’s WREGIS Account a quantity of WREGIS Certificates for each given calendar month that corresponds to the PV Energy in the same calendar month. (g) Seller warrants that all necessary steps to allow the Renewable Energy Credits transferred to Buyer to be tracked in WREGIS (to the extent such steps are reasonably capable of being taken prior to the first delivery under this Agreement) will be taken prior to the first Energy delivery under this Agreement.
(h) The Parties acknowledge and agree that this Section 4.10 reflects an understanding between the Parties that WREGIS Certificates will be created equivalent to the amount of PV Energy that is generating by the Generating Facility. If the RPS (or other applicable Law) is applied or changes in a manner inconsistent with such understanding, the Parties shall reasonably coordinate to amend or modify this Agreement to carry out the intent hereof, such agreement not to be unreasonably delayed, conditioned or withheld.

4.11 Financial Statements. In the event a Guaranty is provided as Performance Security in lieu of cash or a Letter of Credit, Seller shall provide to Buyer, or cause the Guarantor to provide to Buyer, unaudited quarterly and annual audited financial statements of the Guarantor (including a balance sheet and statements of income and cash flows), all prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States, consistently applied.

(a) Subject to Section 7.1(b) (with respect to the entirety of the following Section 7.1(a)), unless the Parties agree otherwise pursuant to Section 3.13, the Facility shall have a separate CAISO Resource ID for each of the Generating Facility and the Storage Facility. Seller shall measure the amount of PV Energy using the Generating Facility Meter. Seller shall measure the Charging Energy and the Discharging Energy using the Storage Facility Meter.

INVOICING AND PAYMENT; CREDIT

8.1 Invoicing. Seller shall make good faith efforts to deliver an invoice to Buyer for Product no later than the tenth (10th) day of each month for the previous calendar month. Each invoice shall (a) reflect records of metered data, including (i) CAISO metering and transaction data sufficient to document and verify the amount of Product delivered by the Facility for any Settlement Period during the preceding month, including the amount of PV Energy, Charging Energy, Discharging Energy, Replacement RA and Replacement Product delivered to Buyer (if any), the calculation of Deemed Delivered Energy and Adjusted Energy Production, the LMP prices at the Delivery Point for each Settlement Period, and the Contract Price applicable to such Product in accordance with Exhibit C, and (ii) data showing a calculation of the Monthly Capacity Payment and other relevant data for the prior month; and (b) be in a format reasonably specified by Buyer, covering the Product provided in the preceding month determined in accordance with the applicable provisions of this Agreement. Buyer shall, and shall cause its Scheduling Coordinator to, provide Seller with all reasonable access (including, in real time, to the maximum extent reasonably possible) to any records, including invoices or settlement data from the CAISO, forecast data and other information, all as may be necessary from time to time for Seller to prepare and verify the accuracy of all invoices.

8.2 Payment. Buyer shall make payment to Seller for Product (and any other amounts due) by wire transfer or ACH payment to the bank account provided on each monthly invoice.

Buyer shall pay undisputed invoice amounts by the later of (a) ten (10) Business Days after Buyer’s receipt of the invoice from Seller, and (b) the thirtieth (30th) day of the month after the operational month for which such invoice was rendered; provided, if such due date falls on a weekend or legal holiday, such due date shall be the next Business Day. Payments made after the due date shall be considered late and shall bear interest on the unpaid balance. If the amount due is not paid on or before the due date or if any other payment that is due and owing from one Party to another is not paid on or before its applicable due date, a late payment charge shall be applied to the unpaid balance and shall be added to the next billing statement. Such late payment charge shall be calculated based on an annual Interest Rate equal to the prime rate published on the date of the invoice in The Wall Street Journal (or, if The Wall Street Journal is not published on that day, the next succeeding date of publication), plus two percent (2%) (the “Interest Rate”). If the due date occurs on a day that is not a Business Day, the late payment charge shall begin to accrue on the next succeeding Business Day.

8.3 Books and Records. To facilitate payment and verification, each Party shall maintain all books and records necessary for billing and payments, including copies of all invoices under this Agreement, for a period of at least two (2) years or as otherwise required by Law. Upon fifteen (15) days’ Notice to the other Party, either Party shall be granted reasonable access to the accounting books and records within the possession or control of the other Party pertaining to all invoices generated pursuant to this Agreement.

8.4 Payment Adjustments; Billing Errors. Payment adjustments shall be made if Buyer or Seller discovers there have been good faith inaccuracies in invoicing that are not otherwise disputed under Section 8.5 or an adjustment to an amount previously invoiced or paid is required due to a correction of data by the CAISO, or there is determined to have been a meter Agenda Page 528
49 inaccuracy sufficient to require a payment adjustment. If the required adjustment is in favor of Buyer, Buyer’s next monthly payment shall be credited in an amount equal to the adjustment. If the required adjustment is in favor of Seller, Seller shall add the adjustment amount to Buyer’s next monthly invoice. Adjustments in favor of either Buyer or Seller shall bear interest, until settled in full, in accordance with Section 8.2, accruing from the date on which the adjusted amount should have been due.

8.5 Billing Disputes. A Party may, in good faith, dispute the correctness of any invoice or any adjustment to an invoice rendered under this Agreement or adjust any invoice for any arithmetic or computational error within twelve (12) months of the date the invoice, or adjustment to an invoice, was rendered. In the event an invoice or portion thereof, or any other claim or adjustment arising hereunder, is disputed, payment of the undisputed portion of the invoice shall be required to be made when due. Any invoice dispute or invoice adjustment shall be in writing and shall state the basis for the dispute or adjustment. Payment of the disputed amount shall not be required until the dispute is resolved. Upon resolution of the dispute, any required payment shall be made within five (5) Business Days of such resolution along with interest accrued at the Interest Rate from and including the original due date to but excluding the date paid. Inadvertent overpayments shall be returned via adjustments in accordance with Section 8.4. Any dispute with respect to an invoice is waived if the other Party is not notified in accordance with this Section 8.5 within twelve (12) months after the invoice is rendered or subsequently adjusted, except to the extent any misinformation was from a third party not affiliated with any Party and such third party corrects its information after the twelve (12)-month period. If an invoice is not rendered within twelve (12) months after the close of the month during which performance occurred, the right to payment for such performance is waived.

8.6 Netting of Payments. The Parties hereby agree that they shall discharge mutual debts and payment obligations due and owing to each other on the same date through netting, in which case all amounts owed by each Party to the other Party for the purchase and sale of Product during the monthly billing period under this Agreement or otherwise arising out of this Agreement, including any related damages calculated pursuant to Exhibits B, C and P, interest, and payments or credits, shall be netted so that only the excess amount remaining due shall be paid by the Party who owes it.

8.7 Seller’s Development Security. To secure its obligations under this Agreement, Seller shall deliver the Development Security to Buyer within thirty (30) days after the Effective Date. Seller shall maintain the Development Security in full force and effect. Upon the earlier of (i) Seller’s delivery of the Performance Security, or (ii) sixty (60) days after termination of this Agreement, Buyer shall return the Development Security to Seller, less the amounts drawn in accordance with this Agreement.

8.8 Seller’s Performance Security. To secure its obligations under this Agreement, Seller shall deliver Performance Security to Buyer on or before the Commercial Operation Date.

If the Performance Security is not in the form of cash or Letter of Credit, it shall be substantially in the form set forth in Exhibit L. Seller shall maintain the Performance Security in full force and effect, and Seller shall within ten (10) Business Days after any draw thereon replenish the Performance Security in the event Buyer collects or draws down any portion of the Performance Security for any reason permitted under this Agreement other than to satisfy a Termination Agenda Page 529
50 Payment, until the following have occurred: (a) the Delivery Term has expired or terminated early; and (b) all payment obligations of Seller due and payable under this Agreement, including compensation for penalties, Termination Payment, indemnification payments or other damages are paid in full (whether directly or indirectly such as through set-off or netting). Following the occurrence of both events, Buyer shall promptly return to Seller the unused portion of the Performance Security. If requested by Seller, Buyer shall from time to time reasonably cooperate with Seller to enable Seller to exchange one permitted form of Development Security or Performance Security for another permitted form.

8.9 First Priority Security Interest in Cash or Cash Equivalent Collateral. To secure its obligations under this Agreement, and until released as provided herein, Seller hereby grants to Buyer a present and continuing first-priority security interest (“Security Interest”) in, and lien on (and right to net against), and assignment of the Development Security, Performance Security, any other cash collateral and cash equivalent collateral posted pursuant to Sections 8.7 and 8.8 and any and all interest thereon or proceeds resulting therefrom or from the liquidation thereof, whether now or hereafter held by, on behalf of, or for the benefit of Buyer, and Seller agrees to take all action as Buyer reasonably requires in order to perfect Buyer’s Security Interest in, and lien on (and right to net against), such collateral and any and all proceeds resulting therefrom or from the liquidation thereof.

Upon or any time after the occurrence of an Event of Default caused by Seller, an Early Termination Date resulting from an Event of Default caused by Seller, or an occasion provided for in this Agreement where Buyer is authorized to retain all or a portion of the Development Security or Performance Security, Buyer may do any one or more of the following (in each case subject to the final sentence of this Section 8.9):
(a) Exercise any of its rights and remedies with respect to the Development Security and Performance Security, including any such rights and remedies under Law then in effect;
(b) Draw on any outstanding Letter of Credit issued for its benefit and retain any cash held by Buyer as Development Security or Performance Security; and (c) Liquidate all Development Security or Performance Security (as applicable) then held by or for the benefit of Buyer free from any claim or right of any nature whatsoever of Seller, including any equity or right of purchase or redemption by Seller.

Buyer shall apply the proceeds of the collateral realized upon the exercise of any such rights or remedies to reduce Seller’s obligations under this Agreement (Seller remains liable for any amounts owing to Buyer after such application), subject to Buyer’s obligation to return any surplus proceeds remaining after such obligations are satisfied in full.

8.10 Buyer Financial Statements. Buyer shall provide to Seller: (a) within forty-five (45) days following the end of its first, second and third fiscal quarters, unaudited quarterly financial statements of Buyer prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States, consistently applied; (b) within one hundred eighty (180) days following the end of each fiscal year, annual audited financial statements of Buyer prepared in Agenda Page 530
51 accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States, consistently applied; (c) as available, Buyer’s annual report, which shall include an overview of customer rate classes and retention rates (and may include opt-out rates), procurement activities, customer programs, and a list of Buyer’s member agencies and board members; (d) committed, unused bank line of credit as of the end of each fiscal quarter; and (e) other financial and operational information for the prior fiscal quarter as may be reasonably requested by Seller’s financing parties.

11.2 Remedies; Declaration of Early Termination Date. If an Event of Default with respect to a Defaulting Party shall have occurred and be continuing, the other Party (“Non-Defaulting Party”) shall have the following rights:
(a) to send Notice, designating a day, no earlier than the day such Notice is deemed to be received and no later than twenty (20) days after such Notice is deemed to be received, as an early termination date of this Agreement (“Early Termination Date”) that terminates this Agreement (the “Terminated Transaction”) and ends the Delivery Term effective as of the Early Termination Date;

(c) to withhold any payments due to the Defaulting Party under this Agreement; (d) to suspend performance; and
(e) to exercise any other right or remedy available at law or in equity, including specific performance or injunctive relief, except to the extent such remedies are expressly limited under this Agreement; provided, payment by the Defaulting Party of the Damage Payment or Termination Payment, as applicable, shall constitute liquidated damages and the Non-Defaulting Party’s sole and exclusive remedy for any Terminated Transaction and the Event of Default related thereto.

11.3 Damage and Termination Payments. If an Early Termination Date has been declared, the Non-Defaulting Party shall calculate, in a commercially reasonable manner, the Damage Payment or the Termination Payment, as applicable, in accordance with this Section 11.3. (a) Damage Payment Prior to Commercial Operation Date. If the Early Termination Date occurs before the Commercial Operation Date, then the Damage Payment shall be calculated in accordance with this Section 11.3(a).
(i) If Seller is the Defaulting Party, then the Damage Payment shall be owed to Buyer and shall be equal to the entire Development Security amount and any interest accrued thereon. Buyer shall be entitled to immediately retain for its own benefit those funds held as Development Security and any interest accrued thereon, and any amount of Development Security that Seller has not yet posted with Buyer shall be immediately due and payable by Seller to Buyer. There shall be no amounts owed to Seller. The Parties agree that Buyer’s damages in the event of an Early Termination Date prior to the Commercial Operation Date caused by Seller’s default would be difficult or impossible to determine and that the damages set forth in this Section

11.3(a)(i) are a reasonable approximation of Buyer’s harm or loss. (ii) If Buyer is the Defaulting Party, then a Damage Payment shall be owed to Seller and shall equal (A) the sum of (i) all actual, documented and verifiable costs and expenses (including out-of-pocket administrative expenses and cost of equity funding (but excluding overhead)) incurred or paid by Seller or its Affiliates, from the Effective Date through the Early Termination Date, directly in connection with the Facility (including in connection with acquisition, development, financing and construction thereof) plus (ii) without duplication of any costs or expenses covered by preceding clause (i), all actual, documented and verifiable costs and expenses (including out-of-pocket administrative expenses and cost of equity funding (but excluding overhead)) which have been actually incurred, or become payable, by Seller or its Affiliates between the Early Termination Date and the date that Notice of the Damage Payment is provided by Seller to Buyer pursuant to Section 11.4, directly in connection with the Facility and arising out of the termination of this Agreement, including all Facility-related debt and other financing repayment obligations (and including all pre-payment penalties, accelerated payments, make-whole payments and breakage costs), and all other termination payments and other similar Agenda Page 537
58 or related payments, costs or expenses in connection with the Facility, including in connection with financing, construction and equipment supply contracts, land rights contracts, and other Facility contracts and matters, in each case pursuant to and provided for in agreements that are in effect as of the Early Termination Date or entered into thereafter in order to mitigate or minimize the aggregate costs and expenses hereunder, less (B) the fair market value (determined in a commercially reasonable manner by third-party independent evaluator mutually agreed by the Parties (or absent such agreement, by a third-party independent evaluator mutually agreed by two independent evaluators, one selected by each of the Parties), but at Buyer’s sole cost), net of all Facility-related liabilities and obligations (without duplication of any of the liabilities and obligations set forth in Section 11.3(a)(ii)(A)), of (a) all Seller’s assets if sold individually, or (b) the entire Facility, whichever is greater, regardless of whether or not any Seller asset or the entire Facility is actually sold or disposed of. Fair market value shall be based on the value of Seller’s assets or the entire Facility as existing on the Early Termination Date and not on the value thereof at a later stage of development or construction of the Facility or at completion of the Facility. There shall be no amount owed to Buyer. The Parties agree that Seller’s damages in the event of an Early Termination Date prior to the Commercial Operation Date caused by Buyer’s default would be difficult or impossible to determine and that the damages set forth in this Section 11.3(a)(ii) are a reasonable approximation of Seller’s harm or loss.
(b) Termination Payment On or After the Commercial Operation Date. The payment owed by the Defaulting Party to the Non-Defaulting Party for a Terminated Transaction occurring on or after the Commercial Operation Date (“Termination Payment”) shall be the aggregate of all Settlement Amounts plus any and all other amounts due to or from the Non-Defaulting Party (as of the Early Termination Date) netted into a single amount. The Non-Defaulting Party shall calculate, in a commercially reasonable manner, a Settlement Amount for the Terminated Transaction as of the Early Termination Date. Third parties supplying information for purposes of the calculation of Gains or Losses may include, without limitation, dealers in the relevant markets, end-users of the relevant product, information vendors and other sources of market information. The Settlement Amount shall not include consequential, incidental, punitive, exemplary, indirect or business interruption damages. Without prejudice to the Non-Defaulting Party’s duty to mitigate, the Non-Defaulting Party shall not have to enter into replacement transactions to establish a Settlement Amount. Each Party agrees and acknowledges that (i) the actual damages that the Non-Defaulting Party would incur in connection with a Terminated Transaction would be difficult or impossible to predict with certainty, (ii) the Termination Payment described in this Section 11.3(b) is a reasonable and appropriate approximation of such damages, and (iii) the Termination Payment described in this Section 11.3(b) is the exclusive remedy of the Non-Defaulting Party in connection with a Terminated Transaction but shall not otherwise act to limit any of the Non-Defaulting Party’s rights or remedies if the Non-Defaulting Party does not elect a Terminated Transaction as its remedy for an Event of Default by the Defaulting Party.

11.4 Notice of Payment of Termination Payment or Damage Payment. As soon as practicable after a Terminated Transaction, but in no event later than sixty (60) days after the Early Termination Date (or such longer additional period, not to exceed an additional sixty (60) days, if the Non-Defaulting Party is unable to calculate the Termination Payment or Damage Payment, as applicable, within such initial sixty (60) days period despite exercising commercially reasonable efforts), Notice shall be given by the Non-Defaulting Party to the Defaulting Party of the amount of the Damage Payment or Termination Payment, as applicable, and whether the Termination Agenda Page 538
59 Payment or Damage Payment, as applicable, is due to or from the Non-Defaulting Party. The Notice shall include a written statement explaining in reasonable detail the calculation of such amount and the sources for such calculation. The Termination Payment or Damage Payment, as applicable, shall be made to or from the Non-Defaulting Party, as applicable, within ten (10) Business Days after such Notice is effective.

11.5 Disputes With Respect to Termination Payment or Damage Payment. If the Defaulting Party disputes the Non-Defaulting Party’s calculation of the Termination Payment or Damage Payment, as applicable, in whole or in part, the Defaulting Party shall, within five (5) Business Days of receipt of the Non-Defaulting Party’s calculation of the Termination Payment or Damage Payment, as applicable, provide to the Non-Defaulting Party a detailed written explanation of the basis for such dispute. Disputes regarding the Termination Payment or Damage Payment, as applicable, shall be determined in accordance with Article 15.

11.6 Limitation on Seller’s Ability to Make or Agree to Third-Party Sales from the Facility after Early Termination Date. If the Agreement is terminated by Buyer prior to the Commercial Operation Date due to Seller’s Event of Default, neither Seller nor Seller's Affiliates may sell, market or deliver any Product associated with or attributable to the Facility to a party other than Buyer for a period of two (2) years following the Early Termination Date due to Seller’s Event of Default, unless prior to selling, marketing or delivering such Product, or entering into the agreement to sell, market or deliver such Product to a party other than Buyer, Seller or Seller’s Affiliates provide Buyer with a written offer to sell the Product to Buyer on terms and conditions (including price) materially similar to those set forth in this Agreement, and Buyer fails to accept such offer within forty-five (45) days of Buyer’s receipt thereof.

Neither Seller nor Seller’s Affiliates may sell or transfer the Facility, or any part thereof, or land rights or interests in the Site (including the interconnection queue position of the Facility) so long as the limitations contained in this Section 11.6 apply, unless the transferee agrees to be bound by the terms set forth in this Section 11.6 pursuant to a written agreement reasonably approved by Buyer.

Seller shall indemnify and hold Buyer harmless from all benefits lost and other damages sustained by Buyer as a result of any breach by Seller of its covenants contained within this Section 11.6.

11.7 Rights And Remedies Are Cumulative. Except as set forth in Section 4.8 and except where liquidated damages or other express remedy or measure of damages are provided herein as the exclusive remedy, the rights and remedies of a Party pursuant to this Article 11 shall be cumulative and in addition to the rights of the Parties otherwise provided in this Agreement.

11.8 Mitigation. Any Non-Defaulting Party shall be obligated to use commercially reasonable efforts to mitigate its Costs, Losses and damages resulting from any Event of Default of the other Party under this Agreement.

Any Change of Control of Seller (whether voluntary or by operation of law) shall be deemed an assignment and shall require the prior written consent of Buyer, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed; provided, a Change of Control of Seller shall not require Buyer’s consent if the assignee or transferee is a Permitted Transferee.

Seller shall be responsible for Buyer’s reasonable costs associated with the preparation, review, execution and delivery of documents in connection with any assignment of this Agreement by Seller, including without limitation reasonable attorneys’ fees.

14.2 Collateral Assignment. Subject to the provisions of this Section 14.2, Seller has the right to assign this Agreement as collateral for any financing or refinancing of the Facility.

Agenda Page 543
64 In connection with any financing or refinancing of the Facility by Seller, Buyer shall in good faith work with Seller and Lender to agree upon a consent to collateral assignment of this Agreement (“Collateral Assignment Agreement”). The Collateral Assignment Agreement must be in form and substance agreed to by Buyer, Seller and Lender, with such agreement not to be unreasonably withheld, and must include, among others, the following provisions (with such changes as may be reasonably requested by Lenders):
(a) Buyer shall give Notice of an Event of Default by Seller to the Person(s) to be specified by Lender in the Collateral Assignment Agreement, before exercising its right to terminate this Agreement as a result of such Event of Default; provided, such Notice shall be provided to Lender at the time such Notice is provided to Seller and any additional cure period of Lender agreed to in the Collateral Assignment Agreement shall not commence until Lender has received notice of such Event of Default;
(b) Following an Event of Default by Seller under this Agreement, Buyer may require Seller or Lender to provide to Buyer a report concerning:
(i) The status of efforts by Seller or Lender to develop a plan to cure the Event of Default;
(ii) Impediments to the cure plan or its development;
(iii) If a cure plan has been adopted, the status of the cure plan’s implementation (including any modifications to the plan as well as the expected timeframe within which any cure is expected to be implemented); and
(iv) Any other information which Buyer may reasonably require related to the development, implementation and timetable of the cure plan.

Seller or Lender must provide the report to Buyer within ten (10) Business Days after Notice from Buyer requesting the report. Buyer shall have no further right to require the report with respect to a particular Event of Default after that Event of Default has been cured; (c) Lender shall have the right to cure an Event of Default on behalf of Seller, only if Lender sends a written notice to Buyer before the later of (i) the expiration of any cure period, and (ii) five (5) Business Days after Lender’s receipt of notice of such Event of Default from Buyer, indicating Lender’s intention to cure. Lender must remedy or cure the Event of Default within the cure period under this Agreement and any additional cure periods agreed in the Collateral Assignment Agreement up to a maximum of ninety (90) days (or one hundred eighty (180) days in the event of a bankruptcy of Seller or any foreclosure or similar proceeding if required by Lender to cure any Event of Default);
(d) Lender shall have the right to consent before any termination of this Agreement which does not arise out of an Event of Default; (e) Lender shall receive prior written notice of and the right to approve material amendments to this Agreement, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned;
Agenda Page 544
65 (f) If Lender, directly or indirectly, takes possession of, or title to the Facility (including possession by a receiver or title by foreclosure or deed in lieu of foreclosure), Lender must assume all of Seller’s remaining obligations arising under this Agreement and all related agreements (subject to such limits on liability as are mutually agreed to by Seller, Buyer and Lender as set forth in the Collateral Assignment Agreement); provided, before such assumption, if Buyer advises Lender that Buyer will require that Lender cure (or cause to be cured) any Event of Default existing as of the possession date (other than any Event of Default personal to Seller and not reasonably capable of cure) in order to avoid the exercise by Buyer (in its sole discretion) of Buyer’s right to terminate this Agreement with respect to such Event of Default, then Lender at its option, and in its sole discretion, may elect to either:
(i) Cause such Event of Default to be cured, or
(ii) Not assume this Agreement;
(g) If Lender elects to sell or transfer the Facility (after Lender directly or indirectly, takes possession of, or title to the Facility), or sale of the Facility occurs through the actions of Lender (for example, a foreclosure sale where a third party is the buyer, or otherwise), then Lender must cause the transferee or buyer to assume all of Seller’s remaining obligations arising under this Agreement and all related agreements as a condition of the sale or transfer. Such sale or transfer may be made only to an entity that meets the definition of Permitted Transferee; and (h) Subject to Lender’s cure of any Events of Defaults under this Agreement required to be cured in accordance with Section 14.2(f), (i) if this Agreement is rejected in Seller’s bankruptcy or otherwise terminated in connection therewith, Lender shall have the right to elect within forty-five (45) days after such rejection or termination, to enter into a replacement agreement with Buyer having substantially the same terms as this Agreement for the remaining term thereof, or (ii) if Lender or its designee, directly or indirectly, takes possession of, or title to, the Facility (including possession by a receiver or title by foreclosure or deed in lieu of foreclosure) after any such rejection or termination of this Agreement, promptly after Buyer’s written request, Lender must itself, or its designee must, promptly enter into a new agreement with Buyer having substantially the same terms as this Agreement for the remaining term thereof; provided, in the event a designee of Lender, directly or indirectly, takes possession of, or title to, the Facility (including possession by a receiver or title by foreclosure or deed in lieu of foreclosure), such designee (if it is not a Permitted Transferee) shall be approved by Buyer, not to be unreasonably withheld.

14.3 Permitted Assignment by Seller. Seller may, without the prior written consent of Buyer, transfer or assign this Agreement to: (a) an Affiliate of Seller or (b) any Person succeeding to all or substantially all of the assets of Seller (whether voluntary or by operation of law); if, and only if:
(i) the assignee is a Permitted Transferee;
(ii) Seller has given Buyer Notice at least fifteen (15) Business Days before the date of such proposed assignment; and
Agenda Page 545
66 (iii) Seller has provided Buyer a written agreement signed by the Person to which Seller wishes to assign its interests that (x) provides that such Person shall assume all of Seller’s obligations and liabilities under this Agreement upon such transfer or assignment and (y) certifies that such Person meets the definition of a Permitted Transferee.

Except as provided in the preceding sentence, any assignment by Seller, its successors or assigns under this Section 14.3 shall be of no force and effect unless and until such Notice and agreement by the assignee have been received and accepted by Buyer.

14.4 Shared Facilities; Portfolio Financing. Buyer agrees and acknowledges that Seller may elect to finance all or any portion of the Facility or the Interconnection Facilities or the Shared Facilities (1) utilizing tax equity investment, and/or (2) through a Portfolio Financing, which may include cross-collateralization or similar arrangements.
