The Buyers’ calculation of the Closing Net Working Capital shall be determined in accordance with GAAP applied using the accounting principles, practices and methods that were used in the preparation of the Company Financial Statements and consistent with the methodology for each of the Portfolio Companies set forth on Schedule 1.1(e).

(b) After receipt of the Adjustment Statement, the Seller Representative shall have thirty (30) days to review the factual basis, mathematical calculations and accounting methods used therein. On or prior to the thirtieth (30th) day after receipt of the Adjustment Statement, the Seller Representative shall deliver written notice to the Buyer Representative specifying any disputed items (the “Initial Reconciliation Disputes”) and the basis therefor and amount thereof. If the Seller Representative fails to notify the Buyer Representative of any Initial Reconciliation Disputes on or prior to the thirtieth (30th) day after receipt of the Adjustment Statement, then all calculations and valuations of the Closing Net Working Capital set forth on the Adjustment Statement shall be deemed accepted by the Seller Representative and the Sellers and shall be final, binding, conclusive and nonappealable for all purposes of this Agreement.

(c) If the Seller Representative notifies the Buyer Representative of any Initial Reconciliation Disputes in accordance with Section 2.6(b), then the Buyer Representative and the Seller Representative shall, over the fifteen (15) days following the date of such notice (the “Resolution Period”), attempt in good faith to resolve the Initial Reconciliation Disputes, and any written resolution by them as to any disputed item shall be final, binding, conclusive and nonappealable for all purposes of this Agreement. If, at the conclusion of the Resolution Period, the Buyer Representative and the Seller Representative have not reached an agreement on the disputed items, then all Initial Reconciliation Disputes then remaining in dispute (the “Final Reconciliation Disputes”) shall be submitted by the Seller Representative and the Buyer Representative to an Independent Auditor upon which the Buyer Representative and the Seller Representative shall reasonably agree prior to expiration of the Resolution Period. All fees and expenses

relating to the work, if any, to be performed by such Independent Auditor pursuant to this Section 2.6 shall be borne by the Sellers, on the one hand, and by the Buyers, on the other hand, based upon the percentage that the amount not ultimately awarded to such Transaction Parties by such Independent Auditor bears to the amount actually contested by such Transaction Parties in the Final Reconciliation Disputes. Except as provided in the preceding sentence, all other costs and expenses incurred by the Transaction Parties in connection with resolving any Final Reconciliation Disputes hereunder before such Independent Auditor shall be borne by the Transaction Party incurring such cost and expense. With respect to each disputed line item of the Closing Net Working Capital, such Independent Auditor’s final determination, if not in accordance with the position of either the Seller Representative, on the one hand, or the Buyer Representative, on the other hand, will not be in excess of the higher, nor less than the lower, of the amounts advocated by the Buyer Representative in its calculation of the Closing Net Working Capital or the corresponding amounts claimed by the Seller Representative in the initial notice of any Initial Reconciliation Disputes delivered by the Seller Representative pursuant to Section 2.6(b). For the avoidance of doubt, the Independent Auditor shall not review any line item or make any determination with respect to any matter other than the Final Reconciliation Disputes. The Transaction Parties shall instruct the Independent Auditor to render its reasoned written decision, acting as an expert and not as an arbitrator, as soon as practicable but in no event later than sixty (60) days after its engagement (which engagement shall be made no later than ten (10) Business Days after the end of the Resolution Period). Such decision shall be determined in accordance with GAAP applied using the accounting principles, practices and methods that were used in the preparation of the Company Financial Statements and consistent with the methodology for each of the Portfolio Companies set forth on Schedule 1.1(e), shall be set forth in a written statement delivered to the Seller Representative and the Buyer Representative and shall be final, binding, conclusive and nonappealable for all purposes hereunder. Notwithstanding anything else contained herein, no Party may assert that any award issued by the Independent Auditor is unenforceable because it has not been timely rendered. The term “Final Adjustment Statement” shall mean the definitive Adjustment Statement setting forth the final determination of the Closing Net Working Capital (the “Final Closing Net Working Capital”) and resulting from (i) agreement by the Seller Representative and the Buyer Representative during the Resolution Period or otherwise, (ii) a deemed acceptance pursuant to Section 2.6(b) or (iii) the determination by an Independent Auditor in accordance with this Section 2.6(c).

(d) If the Final Closing Net Working Capital is greater than the Estimated Closing Net Working Capital, then the Buyers shall pay to the Sellers an amount equal to such excess in the manner set forth in Section 2.6(f). Conversely, if the Final Closing Net Working Capital is less than the Estimated Closing Net Working Capital, then the Sellers shall pay to the Buyers an amount equal to such difference in the manner set forth in Section 2.6(f).

(e) For purposes of calculating Closing Net Working Capital and without limiting the provisions of Section 2.6(a) and the generality of Section 6.2, during the period of any dispute contemplated in this Section 2.6, the Buyers shall, and shall cause their Affiliates to, provide the Seller Representative and its Representatives with

reasonable access to the relevant Books and Records, facilities and employees, and their accountants’ work papers, schedules and other supporting data during normal business hours as may be reasonably requested by the Seller Representative.

(f) Any payment required pursuant to Section 2.6(d) shall be made by wire transfer of immediately available funds, in Dollars, to the account or accounts designated by the Seller Representative or the Buyer Representative, as the case may be, within five (5) Business Days after the Final Adjustment Statement is determined by (i) agreement by the Seller Representative and the Buyer Representative during the Resolution Period or otherwise, (ii) a deemed acceptance pursuant to Section 2.6(b) or (iii) the determination by an Independent Auditor in accordance with Section 2.6(c). Payments due pursuant to Section 2.6(d) shall be paid to the applicable Parties together with interest on the amount owed at a rate of interest equal to LIBOR (determined, as applicable, at the Closing Date and at the end of each 30-day period thereafter) plus two percent (2%) thereon (such interest accruing for the period commencing on, and including, the Closing Date and continuing until, and excluding, the date of payment).

(b) violate any Law applicable to any of the Buyers or require any filing with, consent, approval or authorization of, or notice to, any Governmental Authority, except for any filings required by FERC in its order granting approval under FPA Section 203; or

(c) require any consent under, constitute (with or without notice or lapse of time or both) a default under, result in any breach or violation of, or give any Person any rights of termination, acceleration or cancellation of, any Contract to which any of the Buyers or any of their respective assets, properties or businesses is bound;

Section 5.4 Financial Ability; Solvency. At Closing, the Buyers will have sufficient immediately available funds to pay in cash the amount of the Purchase Price and to consummate all of the transactions contemplated to occur at Closing.

Section 5.5 Investment Representation.

(a) The Buyers are acquiring the Interests for their own account as an investment and not with a view towards any unlawful public distribution thereof, including to sell, transfer or otherwise distribute all or any part thereof to any other Person in any transaction that would constitute a “distribution” within the meaning of the Securities Act. The Buyers acknowledge that they can bear the economic risk of their investment in the Interests, and are capable of evaluating the merits and risks or an investment in all of the Interests. The Buyers understand and acknowledge that neither the offer nor sale of the Interests has or will have been registered pursuant to the Securities Act or any applicable state securities Laws or any other applicable securities Laws, that all of the Interests will be characterized as “restricted securities” under federal securities Laws and that, under such Laws and applicable regulations, none of the Interests can be sold or otherwise disposed of without registration under the Securities Act or an exemption thereunder.

(b) Each of the Buyers acknowledges that (i) it has been afforded access to and the opportunity to inspect the Facilities and other due diligence items made available by the Sellers with respect to the Portfolio Companies, (ii) it has received materials that it deems necessary to make its determination whether to proceed with the transactions contemplated hereby, and (iii) it is not relying on any statements, representations or warranties made by the Sellers or any Affiliate of the Sellers, whether in writing or orally, other than the express representations and warranties of the Sellers in this Agreement.

Section 5.6 Broker’s Fees. No broker, finder, investment banker or other Person is entitled to any brokerage fee, finders’ fee or other commission in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement based upon arrangements made by or on behalf of any of the Buyers or any of their Affiliates.

Section 5.7 Litigation. There is no Litigation pending or, to the Knowledge of any of the Buyers, threatened, that seeks to prevent the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby or that would, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on the ability of each of the Buyers to perform its obligations hereunder or to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby.

Section 5.8 Regulatory Status. The Buyers are not public utility holding companies within the meaning of the Public Utility Holding Company Act of 2005 or, if the Buyers are public utility holding companies, each of the Buyers is a public utility holding company solely by virtue of its ownership in exempt wholesale generators, foreign utility companies or qualifying facilities. The Buyers are not public utilities within the meaning of the Federal Power Act.

Section 5.9 HSR Act Matters. The Ultimate Parent Entities (UPEs) of the Buyers, as defined under 16 C.F.R. § 801.1(a)(3), which were newly formed for purposes of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, do not satisfy the thresholds described in 15 U.S.C. § 18a(a)(2)(B)(ii).

Section 6.2 Access.

(a) Prior to the Closing Date, or if earlier, until the date this Agreement is terminated pursuant to Section 10.1, each of the Sellers shall afford (and shall cause their Affiliates and the Portfolio Companies to afford) to the Buyers and their authorized Representatives reasonable access, during normal business hours, to the properties (including the Facilities), books, contracts and records of the Sellers and the Portfolio Companies with respect to the Business, and to the appropriate officers and employees of the Sellers and their Affiliates, in each case, as reasonably requested by the Buyer Representative; provided, however, that such access shall only be upon reasonable advance written notice to the Seller Representative and shall not unreasonably disrupt personnel or operations of the Business and shall be at the Buyers’ sole cost and expense and shall not include any invasive sampling of any environmental media without the prior written consent of the Seller Representative, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. During the Interim Period, each of the Buyers and each of the Sellers shall cooperate to allow the Buyers and their authorized Representatives to visit the Facilities during normal business hours and confirm the presence of the spare parts and equipment at the Facilities. Knowledge acquired by the Buyers in exercising their right to access pursuant to this Section 6.2 shall not affect the Buyers’ right to claim indemnification in accordance with Section 9.2(a)(i).

(b) The Buyers shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Seller Indemnified Parties, from and against any Losses incurred by such Seller Indemnified Parties, as a result of, in respect of, or arising out of any injury to any Person or property resulting from or relating to the activities of the Buyer Representative or its Representatives under this Section 6.2, other than Losses resulting from or arising out of the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Seller Indemnified Party or the discovery of conditions or defects by the Seller Indemnified Parties that already existed on or with respect to the assets or properties of the Portfolio Companies at the time of access by the Buyers (excluding any exacerbation of any such condition or defect caused by any of the Buyers or their Representatives).

Section 6.3 Confidentiality; Public Announcements.

(a) The terms of the Confidentiality Agreement are hereby incorporated by reference, and subject to Section 6.3(b) and Section 6.3(c) of this Agreement, the Confidentiality Agreement shall continue in full force and effect in accordance with its terms until the Closing, when it shall be automatically terminated. From and after the Closing, each of the Sellers shall, and shall cause each of their Affiliates to, (i) treat and hold as confidential any information concerning the business and affairs (including know-how and trade secrets) of the Portfolio Companies (the “Confidential Information”), except (A) as expressly permitted hereunder, (B) to the extent such information comes into the public domain after the Closing through no fault of any of the Sellers, any of their Affiliates or any Person to whom any of the Sellers released or disclosed such information, or (C) to the extent such information was or becomes available to any of the Sellers or any of their Affiliates after the Closing Date on a non-confidential basis from a source other than one of the Portfolio Companies or any of the Buyers or their Affiliates, (ii) refrain from using any of the Confidential Information other than to prepare Taxes and pursue rights under this Agreement, and (iii) deliver promptly to the Buyer Representative or destroy, at the request and option of the Buyer Representative, all tangible embodiments of the Confidential Information that are in the possession or under the control of any of the Sellers or any of their Affiliates, and shall certify such delivery or destruction upon request in a written certificate given by an officer of each of the Sellers. Each of the Sellers and their Affiliates acknowledges and agrees that the Confidential Information is the property of the Portfolio Companies; provided that the Sellers may retain one copy of the Confidential Information that it shall treat as confidential pursuant to the terms of this Section 6.3. In the event that any of the Sellers or their Affiliates is requested or required (by oral question or request for information or documents in any legal proceeding, interrogatory, subpoena, civil investigative demand or similar process) to disclose any Confidential Information, such Person shall notify the Buyer Representative promptly of the request or requirement so that the Buyer Representative may seek an appropriate protective order or waive compliance with the provisions of this Section 6.3. If, in the absence of a protective order or the receipt of a waiver hereunder, such Person is, on the advice of counsel, compelled to disclose any Confidential Information to any Governmental Authority or else stand liable for contempt, such Person may disclose such Confidential Information to the tribunal; provided that the Sellers shall use their commercially reasonable efforts to obtain, at the expense and request of the Buyers or the Portfolio Companies, an order or other assurance that confidential treatment shall be accorded to such portion of the Confidential Information required to be disclosed as the Buyers or the Portfolio Companies shall designate.

(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement or the Confidentiality Agreement, the Seller Representative, the Sellers, or any of their Affiliates may file with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) any summary or other information regarding this Agreement in any Form 8-K or other SEC filing provided that the Seller Representative, the Sellers or any of their Affiliates provide the Buyer Representative a reasonable opportunity to review and provide comments thereon, and any of the Seller Representative, the Sellers, or any of their Affiliates may, if

required by Form 8-K, Form 10-Q or Form 10-K, file this Agreement (and any exhibits hereto) as an exhibit to such Form 8-K, Form 10-Q or Form 10-K, as applicable; provided, however, that the Disclosure Schedules to this Agreement shall not be filed with the SEC unless such filing is required by the SEC.

(c) Without giving at least five (5) Business Days’ prior notice and obtaining the prior written approval of the Seller Representative (in the case of a release or statement by any Buyer) or the Buyer Representative (in the case of a release or statement by any Seller), no Party will issue, or permit any agent or Affiliate of such Party to issue, any press releases or otherwise make, cause or allow any agent or Affiliate of such Party to make, any public statements with respect to this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby or use the name of any Seller or Buyer or any of their respective Affiliates (whether in connection with this transaction or otherwise), except when such release or statement is deemed in good faith by the releasing Party to be required by Applicable Law or under the applicable rules and regulations of a stock exchange or market on which the securities of the releasing Party or any of its Affiliates are listed. In each case to which such exception applies, the releasing Party will use its reasonable efforts to provide a copy of such release or statement to the non-releasing Party prior to issuing such release or statement and incorporate any reasonable changes which are suggested by the Buyer Representative or the Seller Representative, as applicable.

Section 6.4 Third-Party Approvals. From the date hereof through the Closing Date, each of the Buyers and the Sellers shall, and shall each cause their respective Affiliates to, use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain all of the Buyer Approvals, Portfolio Company Approvals and Seller Approvals, and maintain such approvals in full force and effect once obtained. Notwithstanding the foregoing or any other provision of this Agreement, none of the Buyers or any of their Affiliates shall be obligated to make any payments or otherwise pay any consideration to any Person, to commence or participate in any Litigation or to offer or grant any accommodation to any Third Party in connection with any such Buyer Approvals, Portfolio Company Approvals or Seller Approvals. Each Transaction Party shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to cooperate with the reasonable requests of any other Transaction Party in seeking to obtain as promptly as practicable all such Buyer Approvals, Portfolio Company Approvals or Seller Approvals. Neither the Sellers nor the Buyers shall take, or cause to be taken, any action that they are aware or should reasonably be aware would have the effect of delaying, impairing or impeding the receipt of any such Buyer Approvals, Portfolio Company Approvals or Seller Approvals.

Section 6.5 Closing Conditions; Regulatory Filings. From the date of this Agreement until the Closing, each of the Buyers and the Sellers shall, and shall cause their respective Affiliates to, use commercially reasonable efforts to take such actions as are necessary to expeditiously satisfy the closing conditions set forth in this Agreement and to cause the Closing to occur, as promptly as practicable, including to: (a) make or cause to be made the filings required of such Transaction Party or any of its Affiliates under any Laws with respect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, all of which are set forth on Schedule 6.5 as promptly as is reasonably practicable, and in any event within ten (10) Business Days after the date hereof, and to pay any fees due from it in connection with such filings, (b) cooperate with

the other Parties and furnish all information in such Transaction Party’s possession or in the possession of such Transaction Party’s Affiliates that is necessary in connection with any other Transaction Party’s filings, (c) use commercially reasonable efforts to cause the expiration of the notice or waiting periods under the HSR Act, if applicable, and any other Laws with respect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement as promptly as is reasonably practicable, (d) promptly inform the other Parties of any communication from or to, and any proposed understanding or agreement with, any Governmental Authority in respect of such filings, and permit the other Transaction Parties to review in advance any proposed communication by such Transaction Party or its Affiliates to any Governmental Authority, (e) consult and cooperate with the other Transaction Parties in connection with any analyses, appearances, presentations, memoranda, briefs, arguments and opinions made or submitted by or on behalf of any Transaction Party or its Affiliates in connection with all meetings, actions and proceedings with Governmental Authorities relating to such filings, (f) comply, promptly as is reasonably practicable, with any requests received by such Transaction Party or any of its Affiliates for additional information, documents or other materials in connection with such filings, (g) use commercially reasonable efforts to resolve any objections as may be asserted by any Governmental Authority with respect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, and (h) use commercially reasonable efforts to contest and resist any action or proceeding instituted (or threatened in writing to be instituted) by any Governmental Authority challenging the transactions contemplated by this Agreement as being in violation of any Law. In connection with filings to be made and actions taken under the HSR Act, if any, the Buyers, on the one hand, and the Sellers, on the other hand, shall each bear half of the filing fees with respect thereto; provided, however, each Transaction Party shall bear its own attorneys’ fees and expenses otherwise incurred in connection with any filings, including as a result of any investigation or Litigation initiated by the Department of Justice Antitrust Division or the Federal Trade Commission. None of the Transaction Parties to this Agreement shall agree to participate in any meeting with any Governmental Authority in respect of any filings, investigation or other inquiry unless it consults with the other Transaction Parties in advance and, to the extent permitted by such Governmental Authority, gives the other Transaction Parties the opportunity to attend and participate at such meeting. Subject to the Confidentiality Agreement, (i) prior to transmitting any material to any Governmental Authority or members of its staff, each Transaction Party shall permit counsel for the other Transaction Parties a reasonable opportunity to review and provide comments thereon, and consider in good faith the views of the other Transaction Parties in connection with, any proposed written communication to any Governmental Authority (or members of their respective staffs) to the extent permitted by Law, and (ii) the Transaction Parties will provide each other with copies of all correspondence, filings or communications between them or any of their representatives, on the one hand, and any Governmental Authority or members of its staff, on the other hand, with respect to this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby; provided, however, that each Transaction Party may redact from any filings provided to the other Transaction Parties hereunder, and shall not be required to provide any materials or information hereunder, to the extent such filings, materials or information relate solely to the redacting Transaction Party and not to the Portfolio Companies or the transactions contemplated hereby. Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Agreement, no Transaction Party or its Affiliates will have any obligation to resolve any objections of any Governmental Authority to the transactions contemplated hereby, to agree to any divestitures of the assets, properties or rights of the Portfolio Companies, such Transaction

Party or any Affiliates of either of the foregoing, or to enter into any “hold separate” or similar agreements or agree to any other changes to the business, operations or activities of such Party or any of its Affiliates.

Section 6.6 No Solicitation. During the Interim Period, each of the Sellers shall not and shall cause their Affiliates and officers, directors and employees not to, and each of the Sellers shall direct and use their commercially reasonable efforts to cause their and their Affiliates’ other Representatives not to, directly or indirectly, initiate, solicit, entertain or negotiate, enter into an agreement with respect to, or provide nonpublic or confidential information to facilitate, any proposal or offer with respect to any sale, redemption, disposition, reorganization, exchange, consolidation or similar transaction directly or indirectly involving the Portfolio Companies, or any purchase of any voting or other securities or partnership interests of the Portfolio Companies in a single transaction or a series of related transactions, or any combination of the foregoing.

Section 6.7 Update Information. Prior to the Closing, the Buyer Representative, on the one hand, and the Seller Representative, on the other hand, shall give the other Party prompt written notice of any development that is reasonably likely to result in a failure of a condition to the Closing. From time to time prior to the Closing, the Sellers shall supplement or amend the Disclosure Schedules hereto with respect to any matter (regardless of whether such matter arose prior to, on or after the date hereof) if necessary to remedy any inaccuracy of any representation or warranty of any of the Sellers (each a “Schedule Supplement”); provided that, except as specifically provided in this Section 6.7, no Schedule Supplement shall be deemed to be incorporated into or to supplement, amend or modify the Disclosure Schedules. In the event the Sellers notify the Buyer Representative that such event, development or occurrence which is the subject of the Schedule Supplement arose after the date of this Agreement and was not the result of a breach of this Agreement by the Sellers and constitutes or relates to something that has had a Material Adverse Effect, then the Buyers shall have the right to terminate this Agreement for failure to satisfy the closing condition set forth in Section 8.2(b); provided, that if the Buyers have the right to, but do not elect to terminate this Agreement and the Closing occurs, then (i) the Buyers shall be deemed to have irrevocably waived any right to terminate this Agreement with respect to the matters specifically set forth in such Schedule Supplement that constituted or otherwise had a Material Adverse Effect, (ii) such Schedule Supplement shall be deemed to be incorporated into and to supplement, amend and modify the Disclosure Schedules, and (iii) the Buyers shall have irrevocably waived their rights to indemnification under Section 9.2 solely with respect to the matters specifically set forth in such Schedule Supplement. For purposes of clarity, the Buyers and the Sellers acknowledge and agree that any Schedule Supplement that reflects an event, development or underlying occurrence that either (A) occurred prior to the execution of this Agreement and should have been set forth on the Disclosure Schedules as of the execution of this Agreement or (B) that does not give the Buyers the right to terminate the Agreement for failure to satisfy the closing condition set forth in Section 8.2(b) shall be deemed to have been provided for information purposes only and shall not be deemed to cure any breach of this Agreement or affect the conditions to Closing or indemnification rights set forth in this Agreement.

Section 6.8 Permits. Each Transaction Party shall promptly provide all notices and otherwise take all commercially reasonable actions required to transfer or reissue the Permits set

forth on Schedule 6.8, which constitute all of the Permits (including Environmental Permits) that need to be transferred or reissued so that the Portfolio Companies can operate the Business upon the Closing in a manner consistent with the Portfolio Companies’ past practices during 2011 and 2012. Each Transaction Party shall use commercially reasonable efforts to effect any such transfer or reissuance, including cooperating with the other Transaction Parties and furnishing all information in such Transaction Party’s possession that is necessary in connection therewith.

Section 6.9 Survey and Title.

(a) Each of the Sellers shall cause to be procured and delivered to the Portfolio Companies and the Buyers as soon as reasonably practicable following the execution of this Agreement one or more plats of survey prepared and certified in accordance with (i) the Florida minimum technical standards for surveying and mapping and (ii) the Minimum Standard Detail for ALTA/ACSM Land Title Surveys (2012) in respect of the Real Property, including (x) Table A items 1, 2, 3, 4, 6(b), 7, 8, 9, 11(b), 13, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20 and 21 and (y) the Real Property Agreements and the plant improvements located on the Real Property and the real property subject to the Real Property Agreements. The Sellers, on the one hand, and the Buyers, on the other hand, shall each bear fifty percent (50%) of any costs and expenses associated with the preparation and delivery of such surveys.

(b) As soon as reasonably practicable following the execution of this Agreement, each of the Sellers shall cause a commitment for title insurance for each of the Portfolio Companies to be issued by a nationally recognized title company reasonably acceptable to the Buyers, addressing the status of title of the Real Property and the Real Property Agreements described on Schedule 6.9 for the Applicable Portfolio Company. Such commitments for title insurance (i) shall be subject to no condition to the issuance of title policies thereunder other than payment of the initial premium, (ii) shall include endorsements for survey coverage, access, contiguity and such other endorsements as may be reasonably requested by the Buyers, and (iii) shall include a nonimputation endorsement for matters known to the Sellers with the Sellers providing, or causing to be provided, to the title company the necessary owner affidavits and nonimputation indemnity required to provide nonimputation coverage to the Buyers under the applicable owners title insurance policies. The Buyers on the one hand, and the Sellers, on the other hand, shall each bear half of the costs, expenses and premiums associated with procuring an owners title insurance policy for each of the Portfolio Companies in an amount to be mutually agreed upon by the Parties (and in the aggregate for all Portfolio Companies in an amount equal to the Base Purchase Price) issued pursuant to such commitments for title insurance or otherwise.

Section 6.10 Applicable Agreements. The Buyers recognize that certain Affiliates of the Portfolio Companies have provided credit support with respect to the Portfolio Companies or the Facilities in satisfaction of the credit support obligations under the Applicable Agreements, all of which support obligations that are outstanding as of the date hereof being set forth on Schedule 6.10. On or prior to the Closing Date, the Buyers shall, or shall cause their Affiliates to, provide replacement credit support on behalf of the Portfolio Companies with respect to such Applicable Agreements, all on terms and conditions required pursuant to the respective

Applicable Agreement and reasonably acceptable to the counterparty to such Applicable Agreement; provided, that, if any counterparty to such Applicable Agreement has not accepted the Buyers’ replacement credit support, then the Buyers shall have the right to extend the Outside Date as provided for in Section 10.1. The Buyers shall use their commercially reasonable efforts to (i) provide to the Seller Representative, on or prior to the Closing Date, written evidence of acceptance of such replacement credit support by the counterparty to such Applicable Agreement in exchange for the existing credit support and (ii) provide to the Seller Representative, on or prior to the Closing Date, evidence of arrangements for the prompt return of the existing credit support to the Seller Representative. The Sellers shall, and shall cause their Affiliates to, use commercially reasonable efforts to assist and cooperate with the Buyers in interacting with the applicable counterparties for the purpose of the Buyers, or their Affiliates, providing the replacement credit support on behalf of the Portfolio Companies with respect to any of the Applicable Agreements.

Section 6.11 Off-Site Assets. Each of the Sellers shall deliver or cause to be delivered to the Facilities prior to the Closing Date all spare parts, equipment, inventory and other assets allocated for use by the Facilities that are not located at the Facilities, other than any spare parts, equipment, inventory and other assets that may be under the custody and control of a third party service provider for purposes of storage, repair or maintenance; provided, that such assets are held by such third party service provider for the benefit of, and use by, the Facilities.

Section 6.12 Reserved.

Section 6.13 Records. As soon as reasonably practicable following the Closing Date, but in no event more than ten (10) days after the Closing Date, the Seller Representative shall deliver to the Buyer Representative or cause to be present at the Facilities, all Books and Records; provided, however, that each of the Sellers shall cause all NERC Documentation required to be maintained in respect of the Facilities to be present at the Facilities on the Closing Date.

Section 6.14 Insurance. Each of the Sellers shall, and shall cause their Affiliates to, maintain or cause to be maintained in full force and effect the insurance policies described on Schedule 4.12 until the Closing Date. All such insurance coverage shall be terminated as of the Closing Date. The Buyers shall be solely responsible for providing insurance to the Portfolio Companies for any claims related to events or occurrences after the Closing Date. Upon the Closing, the Buyers shall be entitled to any cash recoveries received by ATP, its Affiliates or the Portfolio Companies with respect to any of the Portfolio Companies after the date of this Agreement.

Section 6.15 Casualty.

(a) If any assets or properties of the Portfolio Companies are damaged or destroyed by any casualty loss event or events after the date hereof and prior to the Closing Date, and the total cost of restoring such damaged or destroyed assets or properties to a condition reasonably comparable to their prior condition (such costs with respect to such assets or properties, along with all expected lost revenues of the Portfolio Companies associated with such casualty loss constituting capacity payments under the

Revenue Agreements, after giving effect to any Third-Party insurance coverage under which the insurer has accepted the claim for such costs, the “Restoration Cost”) is greater than Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($500,000) but does not exceed ten percent (10%) of the Base Purchase Price and such restoration can be made without material uninsured impairment to the Business, the Seller Representative may elect, by written notice to the Buyer Representative delivered before the Outside Date, to:

(i) reduce the amount of the Purchase Price by the estimated Restoration Cost (as determined by the Seller Representative and reasonably confirmed by the Buyer Representative; provided that the Buyers or the Portfolio Companies receive the benefit of all insurance proceeds taken into account in determining the Restoration Cost, or such amounts are added back to determine the estimated Restoration Cost), or

(ii) restore such damaged or destroyed assets or properties to a condition equivalent to their prior condition.

If the Seller Representative makes the election contemplated by Section 6.15(a)(i), then, subject to the satisfaction or waiver of the conditions set forth in Article VIII, the Closing shall occur on or before the Outside Date and the Purchase Price shall be so reduced. If the Seller Representative makes the election contemplated by Section 6.15(a)(ii), then, subject to the satisfaction or waiver of the conditions set forth in Article VIII, the Closing shall occur on or before the Outside Date. If the Seller Representative does not make either such election before the Outside Date, then any Transaction Party may terminate this Agreement by written notice to the other Parties.

(b) If the Restoration Cost is in excess of ten percent (10%) of the Base Purchase Price or such restoration cannot be made without material uninsured impairment to the Business, the Seller Representative may elect, by written notice to the Buyer Representative delivered promptly after determining the Restoration Cost to:

(ii) restore such damaged or destroyed assets or properties to a condition equivalent to their prior condition.

If the Seller Representative makes the election contemplated by Section 6.15(b)(i), then, subject to the satisfaction or waiver of the conditions set forth in Article VIII, the Closing shall occur on or before the Outside Date and the Purchase Price shall be so reduced; provided that the Buyers may terminate this Agreement, by written notice to the Seller Representative, within thirty (30) days of receipt by the Buyer Representative of the Seller Representative’s notice regarding such election. If the Seller Representative makes the election contemplated by Section 6.15(b)(ii), the

Closing shall occur on or before the Outside Date, subject to the satisfaction or waiver of the conditions set forth in Article VIII. If the Seller Representative does not elect either option within thirty (30) days after the casualty loss, then any Transaction Party may terminate this Agreement by written notice to the other Parties.

(c) If the Restoration Cost is Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($500,000) or less, then (i) none of the Buyers or the Sellers shall have the right or option to terminate this Agreement under this Section 6.15 and (ii) there shall be no reduction in the amount of the Purchase Price as a direct result thereof; however, the Buyers or the Portfolio Companies shall receive the benefit of all insurance proceeds related to such casualty event.

(d) If the Buyer Representative, in the exercise of reasonable judgment, does not confirm the Seller Representative’s calculation of the Restoration Costs, then it shall promptly, but not less than ten (10) Business Days after receipt of the Seller Representative’s calculation, deliver written notice to the Seller Representative setting forth the Buyer Representative’s calculation of the Restoration Costs. If the Buyer Representative fails to timely deliver such notice, then the Seller Representative’s calculation of the Restoration Costs shall be deemed final, binding and conclusive for all purposes of this Agreement. If the Buyer Representative so notifies the Seller Representative in accordance with this Section 6.15(d), then the Buyer Representative and the Seller Representative shall, over the next ten (10) Business Days, attempt in good faith to resolve the disputed calculations, and any written resolution by them as to the agreed calculation of the Restoration Costs shall be deemed final, binding and conclusive for all purposes of this Agreement. If, at the conclusion of the ten (10) Business Day resolution period, the Buyer Representative and the Seller Representative have not agreed on the calculation of Restoration Costs, then the Restoration Costs shall be estimated by a qualified firm reasonably acceptable to the Buyer Representative and the Seller Representative. Subject to the limitations set forth in Section 10.1(f), the Outside Date shall be extended on a day-for-day basis while the procedures set forth in this Section 6.15(d) are followed.

Section 6.16 Condemnation.

(a) If any of the assets or properties of the Portfolio Companies are taken or noticed for taking by a condemnation event after the date hereof and prior to the Closing Date and such assets or properties have a condemnation value (such value with respect to any such assets or properties after giving effect to any condemnation proceeds awarded to the Portfolio Companies for such condemnation event, the “Condemnation Value”) greater than Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($500,000) but not in excess of ten percent (10%) of the Base Purchase Price, any Transaction Party may elect, by written notice to the other Transaction Parties delivered before the Outside Date, to reduce the amount of the Purchase Price by the estimated Condemnation Value (as determined by the Seller Representative and reasonably confirmed by the Buyer Representative). If any Transaction Party makes the election contemplated by the foregoing sentence, then, subject to the satisfaction or waiver of the conditions set forth in Article VIII, the Closing shall occur on or before the Outside Date and the Purchase Price shall be so reduced. If

none of the Transaction Parties makes such election before the Outside Date, then any Transaction Party may terminate this Agreement by written notice to the other Parties.

(b) If the Condemnation Value is in excess of ten percent (10%) of the Base Purchase Price, the Seller Representative may elect, by written notice to the Buyer Representative delivered before the Outside Date, to:

(i) reduce the amount of the Purchase Price by the estimated Condemnation Value (as determined by the Seller Representative and reasonably confirmed by the Buyer Representative), or

(ii) terminate this Agreement.

If the Seller Representative makes the election contemplated by Section 6.16(b)(i), then, subject to the satisfaction or waiver of the conditions set forth in Article VIII, the Closing shall occur on or before the Outside Date and the Purchase Price shall be so reduced; provided that the Buyers may terminate this Agreement, by written notice to the Seller Representative, within thirty (30) days of receipt by the Buyer Representative of the Seller Representative’s notice regarding such election. If the Seller Representative makes the election contemplated by Section 6.16(b)(ii), then this Agreement shall terminate.

(d) If the Buyer Representative, in the exercise of reasonable judgment, does not confirm the Seller Representative’s calculation of the Condemnation Value, then it shall promptly, but not less than five (5) Business Days after receipt of the Seller Representative’s calculation, deliver written notice to the Seller Representative setting forth the Buyer Representative’s calculation of the Condemnation Value.

TAX MATTERS

Section 7.1 Tax Returns.

(a) The Seller Representative shall prepare, or cause to be prepared, and file, or cause to be filed, subject to the review and reasonable approval of the Buyer Representative, all Tax Returns of the Portfolio Companies for all periods ending on or prior to the Closing Date (each such period a “Pre-Closing Tax Period”) that are required to be filed after the Closing Date. The Sellers shall reimburse, or cause to be reimbursed, the Buyers for Taxes of the Portfolio Companies with respect to all periods within fifteen (15) days before payment by the Buyers and/or the Portfolio Companies of such Taxes, but only to the extent that the Taxes were not taken into account in the Final Adjustment Statement. All such Tax Returns shall be prepared in a manner that is consistent with the past custom and practice of the Portfolio Companies, except as required by a change in applicable Law.

(b) The Buyer Representative shall prepare, or cause to be prepared, and file, or cause to be filed, subject to the review and reasonable approval of the Seller Representative, any Tax Returns of the Portfolio Companies for Tax periods which begin before the Closing Date and end after the Closing Date (each such period a “Straddle Period”). All such Tax Returns shall be prepared in a manner that is consistent with the past custom and practice of the Portfolio Companies, except as required by a change in applicable Law. The Sellers shall pay, or cause to be paid, to the Buyers, within fifteen (15) days before the date on which Taxes are to be paid with respect to such Straddle Periods, an amount equal to the portion of such Taxes that relates to the portion of such Straddle Period ending on the Closing Date. For purposes of this Section 7.1 and Section 9.2, in the case of any Taxes that are imposed on a periodic basis and are payable for a Straddle Period, the portion of such Tax that relates to the portion of such Straddle Period ending on the Closing Date shall (x) in the case of any Taxes other than Taxes based upon or related to income, gains or receipts (including sales and use Taxes), or employment or payroll Taxes, be deemed to be the amount of such Tax for the entire Straddle Period multiplied by a fraction the numerator of which is the number of days in the Straddle Period ending on the date immediately prior to the Closing Date and the denominator of which is the number of days in the entire Straddle Period, and (y) in the case of any Tax based upon or related to income, gains or receipts (including sales and use Taxes), or employment or payroll Taxes, be deemed equal to the amount that would be payable if the relevant Straddle Period ended on the date immediately prior to the Closing Date. All determinations necessary to give effect to the foregoing allocations shall be made in a manner consistent with reasonable prior practice of the Portfolio Companies.

(c) The Buyer Representative shall prepare or cause to be prepared and file or cause to be filed all other Tax Returns of the Portfolio Companies.

Section 7.2 Cooperation. The Buyer Representative and the Seller Representative shall cooperate fully, and the Buyers shall cause the Portfolio Companies to cooperate fully, as and to the extent reasonably requested by the other Transaction Party, in connection with the preparation and filing of Tax Returns pursuant to Section 7.1 and any audit, litigation or other proceeding (each, a “Tax Proceeding”) with respect to Taxes. Such cooperation shall include access to, the retention and (upon the other Party’s request) the provision of records and information that are reasonably relevant to any such Tax Return or Tax Proceeding, and the making available of employees on a mutually convenient basis to provide additional information and explanation of any material provided hereunder. The Seller Representative shall and shall cause the Sellers to, and the Buyers shall and shall cause the Portfolio Companies to, retain all books and records with respect to Tax matters pertinent to the Portfolio Companies relating to any taxable period beginning before the Closing Date until the later of six (6) years after the Closing Date and the expiration of the applicable statute of limitations of the respective taxable periods, and to abide by all record retention agreements entered into with any Tax Authority. The Seller Representative shall provide the Buyer Representative reasonable written notice prior to the Sellers transferring, destroying or discarding any books and records, and, if the Buyer Representative so requests, the Sellers shall allow the Buyer Representative to take possession of such books and records at the Buyers’ expense. The Buyers and the Sellers each agree, upon request, to use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain any certificate or other document from any Tax Authority or any other Person as may be necessary to mitigate, reduce or eliminate any Tax that could be imposed with respect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

Section 7.3 Transfer Taxes. All state and local transfer, sales, use, stamp, registration or other similar Taxes, if any, resulting from the transactions contemplated by this Agreement shall be borne and paid fifty percent (50%) by the Buyers and fifty percent (50%) by the Sellers. The Buyer Representative shall, at the Buyers’ expense, timely file any Tax Return or other document with respect to such Taxes (and the Seller Representative and each of the Sellers shall cooperate with respect thereto as necessary). The Buyers and the Sellers shall cooperate in good faith to minimize, to the extent permissible under applicable Law, the amount of any such Taxes.

Section 7.4 Tax Proceedings. The Buyer Representative shall inform the Seller Representative of the commencement of any audit, examination or proceeding (“Tax Contest”) relating in whole or in part to Taxes for which the Buyers may be entitled to indemnity from the Sellers hereunder. With respect to any Tax Contest for which the Seller Representative acknowledges in writing that the Sellers are liable under Article IX for all Losses relating thereto the Seller Representative shall be entitled to control, in good faith, all proceedings taken in connection with such Tax Contest; provided, however, that (i) the Seller Representative shall promptly notify the Buyer Representative in writing of its intention to control such Tax Contest, (ii) in the case of a Tax Contest relating to Taxes of the Portfolio Companies for a Straddle Period, the Seller Representative and the Buyer Representative shall jointly control all proceedings taken in connection with any such Tax Contest and (iii) if any Tax Contest solely controlled by the Seller Representative could reasonably be expected to have an adverse effect on the Buyers, the Portfolio Companies, or any of their related Persons in any Tax period beginning after the Closing Date, the Tax Contest shall not be settled or resolved without the Buyer Representative’s consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if notice is given to the Seller Representative of the commencement of any Tax Contest and the Seller Representative does not, within twenty (20)

Business Days after the Buyer Representative’s notice is given, give notice to the Buyer Representative of the Seller Representative’s election to assume the defense thereof (and in connection therewith, acknowledge in writing the indemnification obligations hereunder of the Sellers), the Sellers shall be bound by any determination made in such Tax Contest or any compromise or settlement thereof effected by the Buyer Representative; provided, however, that if any Tax Contest solely controlled by the Buyer Representative could reasonably be expected to have an adverse effect on the Sellers or any of their related Persons for any Tax period, the Tax Contest shall not be settled or resolved without the Seller Representative’s consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. The failure of the Buyer Representative to give reasonably prompt notice of any Tax Contest shall not release, waive or otherwise affect the Sellers’ obligations with respect thereto except to the extent that the Sellers can demonstrate actual loss and prejudice as a result of such failure. The Buyers and the Portfolio Companies shall use their commercially reasonable efforts to provide the Seller Representative with such assistance as may be reasonably requested by the Seller Representative in connection with a Tax Contest controlled solely or jointly by the Seller Representative. The Seller Representative shall, and shall cause the Sellers and their Affiliates to, use their commercially reasonable efforts to provide the Buyers with such assistance as may reasonably be requested by the Buyers in connection with a Tax Contest controlled solely or jointly by the Buyers.

Section 7.5 Purchase Price Allocation. The purchase and sale of the Interests under this Agreement shall be treated for federal and all applicable state and local income Tax purposes as a deemed sale of the assets of the Portfolio Companies.

(a) The Purchase Price shall be allocated among the assets acquired by the Buyers under this Agreement in accordance with an allocation schedule (the “Purchase Price Allocation Schedule”) agreed upon by the Buyer Representative and the Seller Representative. The Buyer Representative shall prepare the initial draft of the Purchase Price Allocation Schedule in the manner required by Section 1060 of the Code and any other applicable Law and shall deliver it to the Seller Representative at least fifteen (15) days before the scheduled Closing Date (or such shorter period as the Parties may mutually agree) for review and comment by the Sellers. The Transaction Parties shall revise the Purchase Price Allocation Schedule to the extent necessary to reflect any post-Closing payments or adjustments made under or in connection with this Agreement and report any adjustments in accordance with Treasury Regulation Section 1.1060-1(c). In the case of any payment or adjustment referred to in the preceding sentence, the Buyer Representative shall propose a revised Purchase Price Allocation Schedule within forty-five (45) days after the payment or adjustment (or such shorter period as the Parties may mutually agree), and the Transaction Parties shall follow the procedures outlined in Section 7.5(b) with respect to review, dispute and resolution of such revision.

(b) If the Transaction Parties are unable to agree upon the Purchase Price Allocation Schedule within five (5) days before the scheduled Closing Date, then either Transaction Party may refer the dispute to an Independent Auditor and such Independent Auditor shall conclusively determine the Purchase Price Allocation Schedule (including any valuations) in accordance with Section 7.6.

(c) The Sellers and the Buyers shall each prepare, or cause to be prepared, mutually acceptable and substantially identical IRS Forms 8594 consistent with the Purchase Price Allocation Schedule, which the Transaction Parties shall use to report the transaction pursuant to this Agreement to the applicable Tax Authorities; provided, however, that (i) the Buyers’ cost for the assets that they are deemed to acquire may differ from the total amount allocated hereunder to reflect the inclusion in the total cost of items (for example, capitalized acquisition costs) not included in the amount so allocated and (ii) the amount realized by the Sellers or their Affiliates may differ from the total amount allocated hereunder to reflect transaction costs that reduce the amount realized for federal income tax purposes. Each Transaction Party shall promptly provide the other Transaction Party with any other information required to complete Form 8594. Neither Transaction Party, without the consent of the other Transaction Party, shall take a position on any Tax Return, or before any Tax Authority in connection with the examination of any Tax Return or in any subsequent judicial proceeding, that is in any manner inconsistent with the terms of the Purchase Price Allocation Schedule unless specifically required by a determination of an applicable Tax Authority. The Transaction Parties shall promptly advise each other of the existence of any Tax audit, controversy or litigation related to any allocation under this Section 7.5.

Section 7.6 Resolution of Disputed Purchase Price Allocation Schedule Items. The Independent Auditor reasonably agreed by the Transaction Parties pursuant to Section 7.5 shall determine, if required by Section 7.5, any disputes involving the Purchase Price Allocation Schedule (including any valuations) (such disputed document or amount (a “Disputed Item”), in accordance with the following:

(a) The Independent Auditor shall be instructed to deliver to the Buyer Representative and the Seller Representative a written determination of the Disputed Item within ten (10) days from the date the matter is referred to it.

(b) The Independent Accountant may determine the issues in dispute with respect to any Disputed Item following those procedures, consistent with the provisions of this Agreement, that it deems appropriate in the circumstances and with reference to the amounts in issue. The Transaction Parties do not intend to impose any particular procedures upon such Independent Auditor, it being the desire of the Transaction Parties that any such disagreement will be resolved as expeditiously and inexpensively as reasonably practicable.

(c) The Independent Auditor shall have no liability to the Transaction Parties in connection with its services, except for acts of bad faith, willful misconduct or gross negligence, and the Transaction Parties shall provide indemnification to the Independent Auditor as it may reasonably request.

(d) All fees and expenses relating to the work, if any, to be performed by the Independent Auditor pursuant to this Section 7.6 shall be borne equally by the Sellers, on the one hand, and the Buyers, on the other hand.

Section 7.7 Termination of Tax Sharing Agreements. Any tax allocation, indemnity, sharing or other similar agreement or arrangement, whether or not written, that may have been entered into by the Sellers or any of their Affiliates (other than the Portfolio Companies), on the one hand, and any of the Portfolio Companies, on the other hand, shall be terminated as to the Portfolio Companies as of the Closing Date, and no payments that are owed by or to the Portfolio Companies pursuant thereto shall be payable thereafter.

(b) Following receipt of the Claim Notice, and unless (i) the control of the defense by the Indemnifying Party would be inappropriate due to a conflict of interest, (ii) such Third-Party Claim (or the facts or allegations related to such Third-Party Claim) involves criminal allegations or seeks equitable or injunctive relief, (iii) such Third-Party Claim, if adversely determined, could reasonably be expected to materially adversely affect the business or reputation of the Indemnified Party or its Affiliates or (iv) such Third-Party Claim, if adversely determined, could reasonably be expected to result in Losses exceeding the applicable limitations set forth in Section 9.4(c), the Indemnifying Party shall have the right to control the defense of the Indemnified Party against such Third-Party Claim in accordance with the following. If the Indemnifying Party notifies the Indemnified Party that the Indemnifying Party elects to assume the defense of the Third-Party Claim within five (5) Business Days following receipt of the Claim Notice, then the Indemnifying Party shall have the right to defend such Third-Party Claim with counsel selected by the Indemnifying Party (who shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party), by all appropriate proceedings, to a final conclusion or settlement at the discretion of the Indemnifying Party in accordance with this Section 9.3(b). The Indemnifying Party shall have full control of such defense and proceedings, including any compromise or settlement thereof; provided, however, that the Indemnifying Party shall not enter into any settlement agreement without the written consent of the Indemnified Party (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed); provided, further, that such consent shall not be required if (x) the settlement agreement contains a complete and unconditional release by the Third Party asserting the Third-Party Claim of the Indemnified Party, (y) the settlement agreement obligates the Indemnifying Party to pay the full amount of any Losses attributable to the Indemnified Party in connection with the Third-Party Claim, and (z) the settlement agreement does not contain any direct or indirect requirements upon or provisions for the Indemnified Party. If requested by the Indemnifying Party the Indemnified Party agrees, at the sole cost and expense of the Indemnifying Party, to cooperate reasonably with the Indemnifying Party and its counsel in contesting any Third-Party Claim the defense of which is being controlled by the Indemnifying Party pursuant hereto. The Indemnified Party may otherwise participate in, but not control, any defense or settlement of any Third-Party Claim controlled by the Indemnifying Party pursuant to this Section 9.3(b), and the Indemnified Party shall bear its own costs and expenses with respect to such participation.

(c) If the Indemnifying Party (i) does not have the right to control the defense of the Indemnified Party pursuant to Section 9.3(b) or (ii) does not notify the Indemnified Party within five (5) Business Days following receipt of the Claim Notice that the Indemnifying Party elects to defend the Indemnified Party pursuant to Section 9.3(b), then the Indemnified Party shall have the right to defend, and be reimbursed for its reasonable costs and expenses in regard to the Third-Party Claim with counsel selected by the Indemnified Party (who shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnifying Party), by all appropriate proceedings. In such circumstances, the Indemnified Party shall have full control of the defense of such Third-Party Claim. The Indemnifying Party may participate in, but not control, any defense or settlement controlled by the Indemnified Party pursuant to this Section 9.3(c), and the Indemnifying Party shall bear its own costs and expenses with respect to such participation.

(d) Subject to the other provisions of this Article IX, in the event that an Indemnified Party determines that it has a claim for indemnifiable Losses against an Indemnifying Party hereunder (other than as a result of a Third-Party Claim), the Indemnified Party shall give written notice thereof to the Indemnifying Party, specifying, in reasonable detail, the amount of such claim, the nature and basis of the alleged breach or act giving rise to such claim and all relevant facts and circumstances relating thereto. The Indemnified Party shall provide the Indemnifying Party with full access to its books and records (and, if the Sellers are the Indemnifying Party, the Portfolio Companies’ books and records) during normal business hours for the purpose of allowing the Indemnifying Party a reasonable opportunity to verify any such claim for indemnifiable Losses. The Indemnifying Party shall notify the Indemnified Party within thirty (30) days following its receipt of such notice and granting of such access if the Indemnifying Party disputes its liability to the Indemnified Party under this Article IX. If the Indemnifying Party does not so notify the Indemnified Party, the claim specified by the Indemnified Party in such notice shall be a liability of the applicable Indemnifying Party under this Article IX, and the Indemnifying Party shall pay the amount of such claim to the Indemnified Party on demand or, in the case of any notice in which the amount of the claim (or any portion of the claim) is estimated, on such later date when the amount of such claim (or such portion of such claim) becomes finally determined. If the Indemnifying Party has timely disputed its liability with respect to such claim as provided above, the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party shall negotiate in good faith to resolve such dispute. Promptly following the final determination of the amount of indemnifiable Losses to which the Indemnified Party is entitled (whether determined in accordance with this Section 9.3(d) or by a court of competent jurisdiction), the Indemnifying Party shall pay such indemnifiable Losses to the Indemnified Party by wire transfer or certified check made payable to the order of the Indemnified Party.

Section 9.4 Limitations on Liability. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary stated in this Agreement:

(a) a breach of any representation or warranty of any of the Sellers in this Agreement (or in any certificate delivered in connection with this Agreement), subject to the provisions of Section 9.1, in connection with any single item or group of related items that results in Losses of less than Fifty Thousand Dollars ($50,000) shall be deemed, for all purposes of this Article IX not to be a breach of such representation or warranty; provided, however, that the limitation set forth in this Section 9.4(a) shall not apply to Losses arising from (i) any breach of any of the Sellers’ representations and warranties contained in Section 3.1, Section 3.2, Section 3.5, Section 3.6, Section 4.1, Section 4.3, and Section 4.7 (collectively, the “Seller Fundamental Representations”), or Section 4.11 or (ii) the matters described in Section 9.2(a)(ii), (iii), (iv), (v), (vi), (vii), or (viii);

(b) the Sellers shall have no liability arising out of or relating to Section 9.2(a) and the Buyers shall have no liability arising out of or relating to Section 9.2(b) except if the aggregate Losses actually incurred by the Buyer Indemnified Parties or the Seller Indemnified Parties, as applicable, exceed 0.75% of the Purchase Price respectively (and then, subject to Section 9.4(c), only to the extent such aggregate Losses exceed such amount); provided, however, that the limitation set forth in this Section 9.4(b) shall not

apply to Losses arising from (i) any breach of any of the Sellers’ representations and warranties contained in the Seller Fundamental Representations or Section 4.11 (in the case of the Sellers), or Section 5.1, Section 5.2 or Section 5.6 (collectively, the “Buyer Fundamental Representations”) (in the case of the Buyers) or (ii) the matters described in Section 9.2(a)(ii), (iii), (iv), (v), (vi), (vii), or (viii);

(c) (i) neither the Sellers’ liability arising out of or relating to Section 9.2(a)(i) (other than breaches of the Seller Fundamental Representations or Section 4.11) nor the Buyers’ liability arising out of or relating to Section 9.2(b)(i) (other than breaches of the Buyer Fundamental Representations) shall exceed fifteen percent (15%) of the Purchase Price, (ii) the Sellers’ liability for breaches of the representations and warranties contained in Section 4.11 shall not exceed twenty percent (20%) of the Purchase Price, and (iii) neither the Sellers’ liability for breaches of any of the Seller Fundamental Representations nor the Buyers’ liability for breaches of any of the Buyer Fundamental Representations shall exceed the Purchase Price; provided, however, that in no event shall either the Sellers’ aggregate liability or the Buyers’ aggregate liability for breaches of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement in this Agreement exceed the Purchase Price; and

(d) the amount of any Losses subject to indemnification under this Article IX shall be reduced or reimbursed, as the case may be, by the amount of any Third-Party insurance coverage the proceeds of which have been collected by the Portfolio Companies with respect to any such Losses, or third-party indemnity, third-party contribution or similar payments or other similar recovery or offset actually realized, directly or indirectly, by the Indemnified Party with respect to any such Losses, net of expenses paid to third parties in procuring such contributions or recovery, including materially increased premiums or deductibles, and net of any non-indemnifiable amounts related to such claim (e.g., any amounts not recoverable as a result of the limitations set forth in this Article IX), but such recoveries shall not count against the caps, deductibles or other limitations described in this Section 9.4. If a Buyer Indemnified Party or Seller Indemnified Party, as applicable, receives an amount under Third-Party insurance coverage or receives or realizes, directly or indirectly, third party indemnity, third party contribution or similar payments with respect to Losses that were the subject of indemnification under this Article IX at any time subsequent to indemnification provided hereunder, then such Buyer Indemnified Party or Seller Indemnified Party, as applicable, shall promptly reimburse the Buyers or the Sellers, as applicable, to the extent of the amount received.

Section 9.5 Purchase Price Adjustment. The Transaction Parties agree to treat all payments made pursuant to Section 2.6(d) and this Article IX as adjustments to the Purchase Price for Tax purposes.

Section 9.6 Mitigation. Each Indemnified Party shall use, and cause its Affiliates to use, commercially reasonable efforts to mitigate any Losses that may be subject to indemnification under this Article IX upon becoming aware of any event or circumstance that would be reasonably expected to, or does, give rise to such Losses, solely to the extent that such Party would attempt to mitigate such Losses in the ordinary course of business if such Party did

not have a right to indemnification hereunder; provided, that such obligation to mitigate on the part of the Buyers or the Portfolio Companies (from and after the Closing Date) (i) shall not require the Buyers, the Portfolio Companies or their respective Affiliates to take any action inconsistent with the past practices of the Sellers and (ii) shall arise only at such time as the Buyers’ management has actual knowledge of the event, fact, circumstance or matter giving rise to such Losses.

Section 9.7 Exclusive Remedy. From and after the Closing, and except in the event of fraud or willful misconduct, the indemnification and remedies set forth in this Article IX shall constitute the sole and exclusive remedies of the Transaction Parties with respect to any breach of representation or warranty or non-performance, partial or total, of any covenant or agreement contained in this Agreement (or in any certificate delivered in connection herewith); provided, however, that nothing in this Section 9.7 shall prevent any Transaction Party from seeking injunctive or equitable relief in pursuit of its indemnification claims under this Article IX; and provided, further, that in the event a Transaction Party should assert rights or obligations in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement under any Law or cause of action not based on the interpretation or application of this Agreement, the Parties agree that the provisions of this Article IX shall in all instances apply to such claim or cause of action. Except with respect to claims identified above in this Article IX, and to the extent allowed by applicable Law, each Transaction Party hereby waives, releases, acquits and forever discharges the other Party and their respective Affiliates and Representatives from any and all claims, actions, causes of action, demands, rights, damages, costs, expenses, Losses or compensation whatsoever, whether direct or indirect, known or unknown, foreseen or unforeseen, that such Party may have following the Closing against the other Transaction Parties and their respective Affiliates and Representatives with respect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

Section 9.8 Directors and Officer’s Indemnification. For a period of not less than six (6) years after the Closing Date, the Buyers shall cause the Organizational Documents of each Portfolio Company to contain provisions substantially similar to the provisions concerning the exculpation, indemnification, advancement of expenses to, and holding harmless of, all past and present employees, officers or agents of such Portfolio Company for acts or omissions occurring at or prior to the Closing as are contained in such documents as of the date of execution of this Agreement, and the Buyers shall cause each Portfolio Company to honor all such provisions, including making any indemnification payments and expense advancement thereunder. In the event that any indemnifiable claim is asserted or made within such six-year period, all rights to indemnification and advancement of expenses in respect of such claim shall continue to the extent currently permitted under the relevant Portfolio Company’s Organizational Documents until such claim is disposed of, or all orders, injunctions, judgments, decrees, ruling, writs, assessments or arbitration awards in connection with such claim are fully satisfied.

ARTICLE X
TERMINATION

Section 10.1 Termination. Prior to the Closing, this Agreement may be terminated and the transactions contemplated hereby abandoned:

(a) by the mutual consent of each of the Buyers and the Sellers as evidenced in a writing signed by each of the Buyer Representative and the Seller Representative;

(b) by the Buyers (provided the Buyers are not then in material breach of any of their obligations under this Agreement), if there has been a material breach by (i) any of the Sellers of any representation, warranty or covenant contained in this Agreement such that the conditions set forth in Section 8.1 or Section 8.2 would not be satisfied as of the time of such termination or (ii) ATP under the Seller Guaranty, and any such breach under clauses (i) or (ii) is incapable of being cured or has not been cured by any of the Sellers or ATP, as applicable, within twenty (20) days after written notice thereof from the Buyers;

(c) by the Sellers (provided the Sellers are not then in material breach of any of their obligations under this Agreement), if (i) there has been a material breach by the Buyers of any representation, warranty or covenant contained in this Agreement (x) such that the conditions set forth in Section 8.1 or Section 8.3 would not be satisfied as of the time of such termination and (y) such breach is incapable of being cured or has not been cured by the Buyers within twenty (20) days after written notice thereof from the Sellers, or (ii) each of the conditions set forth in Section 8.1 and Section 8.2 (other than those conditions that are to be satisfied at Closing and the condition in Section 8.2(j) that all conditions in the Lender Consents and the Portfolio Company Lender Consents have been met solely to the extent that such conditions are to be satisfied at Closing, though any such conditions in Section 8.2 or in the Lender Consents and the Portfolio Company Lender Consent are then able to be satisfied (A) solely by making delivery thereof if the Closing were then to occur, and (B) as to Section 8.2(j), assuming for the purposes of this Clause (B) only, that the Buyers have or would have satisfied the conditions in Section 8.3(f)) are satisfied and the Buyers fail to satisfy as of the Outside Date (as such date may be extended pursuant to Section 10.1(f)) each of the conditions set forth in Section 8.3 (other than the conditions in Section 8.3(e) and Section 8.3(f) and the conditions that are to be satisfied at Closing, though such conditions that are to be satisfied at Closing are then able to be satisfied solely by making delivery thereof if the Closing were then to occur, but, as to Section 8.3(f), only to the extent that the Buyers have delivered the replacement credit support contemplated in, and otherwise satisfied the requirements of clauses (i) and (ii) of, Section 6.10) and not otherwise waived in writing by the Sellers; provided, however, that in any event, the Sellers cannot terminate under clause (ii) above based upon the Buyers’ failure to pay the Purchase Price if the sole reason for such failure to pay the Purchase Price is due to the Sellers’ failure to satisfy the conditions in Section 8.2(j) and the Buyers have delivered the replacement credit support contemplated in, and otherwise satisfied the requirements of clauses (i) and (ii) of, Section 6.10.

(d) by either the Buyers or the Sellers if any Governmental Authority having competent jurisdiction has issued a final and non-appealable order, decree, ruling or injunction (other than a temporary restraining order) or taken any other action permanently restraining, enjoining or otherwise prohibiting the transactions contemplated by this Agreement;

(e) by either the Buyers or the Sellers in accordance with Section 6.15 or Section 6.16, or as otherwise contemplated by Section 6.15 or Section 6.16; or

Section 10.2 Effect of Termination.

(a) In the event of termination and abandonment of this Agreement pursuant to Section 10.1, this Agreement shall forthwith become null and void and have no effect, and the obligations of the Parties under this Agreement shall terminate, except for the obligations set forth in this Section 10.2(a) and the provisions set forth in Article XI, each of which shall survive termination of this Agreement; provided, however, that (i) if this Agreement is validly terminated by the Buyers pursuant to Section 10.1(b), the Buyers shall be entitled to all rights and remedies available at Law or in equity, and (ii) if this Agreement is validly terminated by the Sellers pursuant to Section 10.1(c), the Seller Representative, on behalf of the Sellers, shall be entitled to draw under the Letter of Credit in the full amount of $10,000,000, and such amount drawn under the Letter of Credit shall constitute a termination fee paid by the Buyers to the Sellers. The Parties

acknowledge and agree that the termination fee provided under the Letter of Credit is a reasonable determination of losses in the event of termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 10.1(c) and upon termination, none of the Buyers shall have any other liability or obligation to any of the Sellers, the Seller Representative or their Affiliates related to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby. In the event (i) the Parties are disputing whether this Agreement has been validly terminated by the Sellers and the Letter of Credit is set to expire within five (5) Business Days or (ii) the Letter of Credit is set to expire within five (5) Business Days and such date is prior to the Outside Date, as may be extended pursuant to Section 10.1(f), then the Seller Representative, on behalf of the Sellers, may draw under the Letter of Credit and hold such proceeds pending resolution of such dispute in the case of clause (i), or until the earlier of the Closing Date or termination of this Agreement in the case of clause (ii), whereupon any amount of such proceeds to which the Sellers are not entitled shall be promptly refunded to the Buyers; provided, however, that the Buyers shall have the right to extend or replace the Letter of Credit at any time prior to its expiration. Further, if termination of this Agreement occurs other than pursuant to Section 10.1(c), the Seller Representative shall deliver to the Buyer Representative the Letter of Credit and written notice from the Sellers confirming their consent to the termination of the Letter of Credit in form and substance reasonably acceptable to the Buyer Representative.

(b) Except as otherwise provided by Law, no delay or forbearance by a Party in the exercise or enforcement of any right or remedy hereunder shall be deemed a waiver by such Party of its right hereunder to exercise or enforce such right or remedy. For the avoidance of doubt, as an alternative to termination of this Agreement pursuant to the provisions of Section 10.1 and the exercise of any right or remedy pursuant to this Section 10.2, the Parties shall have the right to seek specific performance pursuant to the provisions of Section 11.14.

(c) No termination of this Agreement shall affect the obligations of the Parties contained in the Confidentiality Agreement, all of which obligations shall survive termination of this Agreement in accordance with their terms.

This Agreement (together with the Disclosure Schedules and exhibits to this Agreement), the Letter Agreement and the Confidentiality Agreement constitute the entire agreement among the Parties and supersede any other agreements, whether written or oral, that may have been made or entered into by or among any

of the Parties or any of their respective Affiliates relating to the transactions contemplated hereby. No representations, warranties, covenants, understandings or agreements, oral or otherwise, relating to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement exist between the Buyers or their Affiliates, on the one hand, and the Sellers or their Affiliates, on the other hand, except as expressly set forth in this Agreement or in any document delivered at Closing.

Section 11.9 Disclosure Schedules. Unless the context otherwise requires, all capitalized terms used in the Disclosure Schedules shall have the respective meanings assigned to such terms in this Agreement. No reference to or disclosure of any item or other matter in the Disclosure Schedules shall be construed as an admission or indication that such item or other matter is material or that such item or other matter is required to be referred to or disclosed in the Disclosure Schedules. No disclosure in the Disclosure Schedules relating to any possible breach or violation of any agreement or Law shall be construed as an admission or indication that any such breach or violation exists or has actually occurred. The inclusion of any information in the Disclosure Schedules shall not be deemed to be an admission or acknowledgment by the Sellers that in and of itself, such information is material to or outside the ordinary course of the business of the Portfolio Companies or is required to be disclosed on the Disclosure Schedules. Each numbered Schedule in the Disclosure Schedules qualifies only the correspondingly numbered representation, warranty or covenant to the extent specified therein and such other representations, warranties or covenants to the extent a matter in such numbered Schedule is disclosed in such a way as to make its relevance to such other representation, warranty or covenant reasonably apparent.

Section 11.10 Amendments. This Agreement may be amended or supplemented at any time by additional written agreements signed by each Party hereto, as may mutually be determined by the Parties to be necessary, desirable or expedient to further the purpose of this Agreement or to clarify the intention of the Parties.

Section 11.11 Publicity. No Party or any Affiliate or Representative of such Party shall issue or cause the publication of any press release or public announcement or otherwise communicate with any news media in respect of this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby without the prior written consent of the other Parties (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), except as may be required by Law or applicable securities exchange rules and except with respect to customary investor and analyst presentations, meetings and conference calls, in which case, the Party issuing or publishing such press release or making such public announcement shall provide, to the extent reasonably practicable, the other Parties with a copy of such press release or public announcement (including any slides or transcripts to be used in any investor or analyst presentation or conference) in advance of its issuing or publishing such press release or making such public announcement, as applicable.

Section 11.12 Severability. If any term or other provision of this Agreement is illegal, invalid or unenforceable under any Law or as a matter of public policy, all other conditions and provisions of this Agreement shall nevertheless remain in full force and effect so long as the economic or legal substance of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement is not affected in any manner materially adverse to any Party. Upon such determination that any term or other provision contained herein is, to any extent, invalid or unenforceable in any respect under the

Laws governing this Agreement, the Parties to this Agreement shall negotiate in good faith to modify this Agreement so as to effect the original intent of the Parties as closely as possible in a mutually acceptable manner in order that the transactions contemplated by this Agreement be consummated as originally contemplated to the greatest extent possible.

Section 11.13 Governing Law; Jurisdiction.

(a) This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the Laws of the State of New York (without regard to the conflict of laws principles thereof). Each of the Parties irrevocably agrees that any legal action or proceeding with respect to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby shall be brought and determined in any state or federal court in the Borough of Manhattan, New York, New York, and each of the Parties hereto irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of such courts solely in respect of any legal proceeding arising out of or related to this Agreement. The Parties further agree that the Parties shall not bring suit with respect to any disputes arising out of this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby in any court or jurisdiction other than the above specified courts; provided, however, that the foregoing shall not limit the rights of the Parties to obtain execution of judgment in any other jurisdiction. The Parties further agree, to the extent permitted by Law, that a final and unappealable judgment against a Party in any action or proceeding contemplated above shall be conclusive and may be enforced in any other jurisdiction within or outside the United States by suit on the judgment, a certified copy of which shall be conclusive evidence of the fact and amount of such judgment. The Parties agree that all judicial determinations or findings by a state or federal court in the Borough of Manhattan, New York, New York with respect to any matter under this Agreement shall be binding.

(b) To the extent that any Party hereto has or hereafter may acquire any immunity from jurisdiction of any court or from any legal process (whether through service or notice, attachment prior to judgment, attachment in aid of execution, execution or otherwise) with respect to itself or its property, each such Party hereby irrevocably (i) waives such immunity in respect of its obligations with respect to this Agreement and (ii) submits to the personal jurisdiction of any court described in this Section 11.13.

(c) THE PARTIES HERETO AGREE THAT THEY HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVE THE RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION TO ENFORCE OR INTERPRET THE PROVISIONS OF THIS AGREEMENT.

Section 11.14 Specific Performance. Each Party agrees that the other Parties would suffer irreparable damage in the event that there has been a material breach by such Party of any representation, warranty or covenant contained in this Agreement and that any remedy at law for any such breach would be inadequate. Accordingly, it is agreed that in the event of such a breach, the non-breaching Party shall be entitled to an injunction or injunctions to enforce specifically the terms and provisions hereof in any state or federal court in the Borough of Manhattan, New York, New York, in addition to any other remedies it may have at law or in equity.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, this Agreement has been duly executed and delivered by each Party as of the date first above written.

(b) the absence of any attempt by, or on behalf of, any of the Beneficiaries, to collect, or to take any other action to enforce, all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations whether from or against any Seller or any other Person;

(c) the election of any remedy available under the Purchase and Sale Agreement, the Letter Agreement, the Transition Services Agreement or applicable Laws by, or on behalf of, any of the Beneficiaries with respect to all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations;

(d) the waiver, consent, extension, forbearance or granting of any indulgence by, or on behalf of, any of the Beneficiaries, with respect to any provision of the Purchase and Sale Agreement, the Letter Agreement or the Transition Services Agreement;

(e) any change in the legal or beneficial ownership, or the existence or structure as a partnership or other entity, of any Seller or any other Person now or hereafter liable with respect to any of the Guaranteed Obligations (including, without limitation, any consolidation or amalgamation with, any merger with or into, or any transfer of all or substantially all the assets of such Seller or such other Person to, another Person);

(h) to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law, any other circumstance whatsoever that might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge or defense of a surety or guarantor.

3. Enforcement; Application of Payments. In the case of any failure by any Seller to pay any Guaranteed Obligation in accordance with the terms of the Purchase and Sale Agreement, the Letter Agreement or the Transition Services Agreement, as applicable, Guarantor hereby agrees that, upon receipt of written notice from the Buyer Representative, on behalf of the Beneficiaries, of such failure, Guarantor will promptly make payment of such Guaranteed Obligations owing to the Beneficiaries to the Buyer Representative for the benefit of the Beneficiaries, without first proceeding against such Seller or any other Person. Any amounts

C-4

received by the Buyer Representative hereunder shall be applied to the Guaranteed Obligations.

4. Waivers and Acknowledgments.

(a) Guarantor unconditionally and irrevocably hereby waives any right to revoke this Guaranty, diligence, presentment, demand of payment, filing of claims with a court in the event of receivership or bankruptcy of any Seller or any other Person (other than Guarantor to the extent required by the Bankruptcy Code), protest or notice with respect to the Guaranteed Obligations, all presentments, demands for performance, notices of nonperformance, protests, notices of protest, notices of dishonor and notices of acceptance of this Guaranty, and all other notices or demands whatsoever (and shall not require that the same be made on any Seller as a condition precedent to Guarantor’s obligations hereunder).

(b) The Beneficiaries and the Buyer Representative are hereby authorized, without notice or demand and without affecting the liability of Guarantor hereunder, from time to time, (i) to renew, extend, accelerate or otherwise change the time for payment of, or other terms relating to, all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations, or to otherwise modify, amend or change the terms of the Purchase and Sale Agreement, the Letter Agreement or the Transition Services Agreement (including, in each case, the addition or substitution of any Person now or hereafter liable with respect to any Guaranteed Obligation); (ii) to accept partial payments on all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations; (iii) to take and hold security or collateral for the payment of all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations, this Guaranty, or any other guaranties of all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations; (iv) to exchange, enforce, waive and release any such security or collateral; (v) to apply such security or collateral and direct the order or manner of sale thereof as in its discretion it may determine; and (vi) to settle, release, exchange, enforce, waive, compromise or collect or otherwise liquidate all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations or any other guaranty of all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations, and any security or collateral for the Guaranteed Obligations or for any such guaranty, irrespective of the effect on the contribution or subrogation rights of Guarantor. Any of the foregoing may be done in any manner, without affecting or impairing the obligations of Guarantor hereunder.

5. Reinstatement. Guarantor further agrees that, to the extent that any Seller makes a payment or payments of Guaranteed Obligations to any of the Beneficiaries or to the Buyer Representative for the benefit of the Beneficiaries, which payment or payments of Guaranteed Obligations, or any part thereof are subsequently rescinded, invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside and/or required to be repaid to such Seller, or its trustee, receiver or any other party, including, without limitation, Guarantor under any bankruptcy law, state or federal law, common law or equitable cause, then, to the extent of such payment or repayment, the part of the Guaranteed Obligations which has been paid, reduced or satisfied by such amount shall be reinstated and continued in full force and effect as of the time immediately preceding such initial payment, reduction or satisfaction.

6. Subrogation. Guarantor will not exercise any rights that it may acquire by way of subrogation under this Guaranty, by any payment made hereunder or otherwise, until all of the Guaranteed Obligations shall have been paid in full. If any amount shall be paid to Guarantor on account of such subrogation rights at any time when all of the Guaranteed

C-5

Obligations shall not have been paid in full, such amount shall be held in trust for the benefit of the Beneficiaries and shall forthwith be paid to the Buyer Representative for the benefit of the Beneficiaries to be credited and applied to such Guaranteed Obligations in accordance with the terms of the Purchase and Sale Agreement, the Letter Agreement or the Transition Services Agreement, as applicable. If (i) Guarantor shall make payment to the Buyer Representative of all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations and (ii) all of the Guaranteed Obligations shall be paid in full, the Buyer Representative, on behalf of the Beneficiaries, will, at Guarantor’s request and expense, execute and deliver, or will cause to be executed and delivered, to Guarantor appropriate documents, without recourse and without representation or warranty, necessary to evidence the transfer by subrogation to Guarantor of an interest in the Guaranteed Obligations resulting from such payment by Guarantor.

7. Enforcement; Amendments; Waivers. No delay on the part of any Beneficiary or the Buyer Representative in the exercise of any right or remedy arising under this Guaranty, the Purchase and Sale Agreement, the Letter Agreement, the Transition Services Agreement or otherwise with respect to all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations shall operate as a waiver thereof, and no single or partial exercise by any Beneficiary or the Buyer Representative of any such right or remedy shall preclude any further exercise thereof. No modification or waiver of any of the provisions of this Guaranty shall be binding upon the Beneficiaries, the Buyer Representative or Guarantor, except as expressly set forth in a writing duly signed and delivered by the Buyer Representative, on behalf of the Beneficiaries, and Guarantor. Failure by the Beneficiaries or the Buyer Representative at any time or times hereafter to require strict performance by any Seller of all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations or any other Person of any of the provisions, warranties, terms and conditions contained in the Purchase and Sale Agreement, the Letter Agreement or the Transition Services Agreement, as applicable, shall not waive, affect or diminish any right of the Beneficiaries or the Buyer Representative at any time or times hereafter to demand strict performance thereof and such right shall not be deemed to have been waived by any act or knowledge of any Beneficiary or the Buyer Representative (or their agents, officers or employees), unless such waiver is contained in an instrument in writing from the Buyer Representative, directed and delivered to such Seller or Guarantor, as applicable, specifying such waiver, and is signed by the Buyer Representative on behalf of such Beneficiary. No waiver of any default in the Guaranteed Obligations by the Buyer Representative or the Beneficiaries shall operate as a waiver of any other default of the Guaranteed Obligations or the same default of the Guaranteed Obligations on a future occasion.

8. Effectiveness; Termination. This Guaranty shall become effective against Guarantor upon its execution by Guarantor and shall continue in full force and effect and may not be terminated or otherwise revoked until (and, notwithstanding anything contrary continued herein, Guarantor shall be automatically released and this Guaranty shall be automatically terminated without further act of Guarantor, the Beneficiaries, or the Buyer Representative upon) the earliest to occur of (i) payment in full of the Guaranteed Obligations, subject to automatic reinstatement if any payment by the Sellers in respect of the Guaranteed Obligations is rescinded or returned, (ii) the date on which all indemnification obligations of the Sellers and APH, as applicable, have been terminated pursuant to the terms of the Purchase and Sale Agreement, the Letter Agreement and the Transition Services Agreement, (iii) the date of termination of the Purchase and Sale Agreement if terminated pursuant to Section 10.1(c) thereof, and (iv) the date

C-6

of termination of this Guaranty in writing by and among Guarantor and the Buyer Representative.

9. Successors and Assigns. This Guaranty shall be binding upon Guarantor and upon the successors and permitted assigns of Guarantor and shall inure to the benefit of the Beneficiaries, the Buyer Representative and their respective successors and permitted assigns under and in accordance with the terms of the Purchase and Sale Agreement, the Letter Agreement and the Transition Services Agreement.

AGREEMENT

NOW, THEREFORE, for and in consideration of the mutual covenants and agreements contained in this Agreement and in the Purchase Agreement, and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties agree as follows:

D-4

1. Term and Services.

(a) This Agreement shall become effective as of the date hereof, except for the provisions of Sections 1(b), 1(c) (other than the last sentence thereof, which shall become effective as of the date hereof), 2, 3(a), 3(b), 4(a), 4(b) and 7 of this Agreement, which shall become effective as of the Closing Date, unless otherwise specifically provided in this Agreement, and, unless sooner terminated as hereinafter provided, shall continue until, and including, the earlier of (i) June 30, 2013 or (ii) the date all Services of Service Provider and Caithness Services of Caithness are terminated pursuant to Section 4.

(b) During the period from the Closing Date until, and including June 30, 2013 (the “Service Period”), (i) Service Provider shall provide to the Buyers and each of the Portfolio Companies the Services, and (ii) APH, Funding and TOS shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause Caithness to continue to provide the Caithness O&M Services to the Facilities pursuant to the Engagement Agreements (but in no event past the Applicable O&M Services End Date, as defined below) and the Caithness Administrative Services to the Facilities pursuant to the Administrative Services Agreement, as applicable.

(c) From and after the Closing Date, each of the Sellers, the Seller Representative and APH hereby waives, on behalf of each of the Sellers and any of their Affiliates party thereto, any obligations of Caithness set forth in the Caithness Operative Agreements with respect to confidentiality (including any confidentiality obligations specifically related to the Books and Records of the Portfolio Companies or the Facilities) solely to the extent necessary to provide information to the Buyers relating to any services that Caithness has performed under the Caithness Operative Agreements for the Portfolio Companies or the Facilities. Following the Closing Date, each of the Sellers, the Seller Representative and APH shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to have Caithness and its Affiliates provide to the Buyers as soon as reasonably practicable but by no later than twenty (20) days following the Closing Date all Books and Records of the Portfolio Companies and other information relating to any services that Caithness has performed for the Portfolio Companies or the Facilities under the Caithness Operative Agreements; provided, that Caithness shall have the right to retain, or be given access to, all such Books and Records required by Caithness to perform the Caithness Services until the end of the Service Period (or, with respect to the Caithness O&M Services, if earlier, until the date the Caithness O&M Services are terminated with respect to the Lake Facility, the Pasco Facility, or the Auburndale Facility, as applicable (the “Applicable O&M Services End Date”)), and Caithness shall not be liable for failure to perform any Caithness Services for which such Books and Records would be required and are not available to Caithness as a result of its obligation to turn over such books and records to the Buyers. From and after the Closing Date, each of the Sellers, the Seller Representative and APH agrees to provide and agrees that Caithness may provide, and hereby waives any restrictions set forth in the Caithness Operative Agreements that would restrict Caithness from providing information relating to any services that Caithness has performed under the Caithness Operative Agreements for the Portfolio Companies or the Facilities. At all times from the date hereof until the end of the Service Period or, if earlier, the Applicable O&M Services End Date, the Sellers and APH shall, and shall use their commercially reasonable efforts to cause Caithness to, grant the Buyers access to the employees of Caithness or its Affiliates performing any of the Caithness O&M Services

D-5

for the purpose of interviewing, making offers and otherwise transitioning such employees to the Buyers or the Buyers’ selected service provider.

2. Fees, Reimbursable Costs and Payment.

(a) Fees. The Buyers shall pay, or cause the Portfolio Companies to pay, to the Seller Representative, a flat fee of $2,500 per Service Month (as hereinafter defined) for each Service Month following the Closing Date (the “Fees”). As used herein, the term “Service Month” shall mean the thirty (30) day period beginning on the Closing Date and each successive thirty (30) day period thereafter until the end of the Service Period. If, due to early termination of this Agreement, a Service Month is less than thirty (30) days, the Fees with respect to such Service Month shall be payable on a pro rata basis based on the number of days in such Service Month.

(b) Reimbursable Costs. The Buyers shall pay, or cause the Portfolio Companies to pay, (i) to the Seller Representative, the reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses actually incurred by Service Provider during each Service Month related to the Services provided to the Buyers or the Portfolio Companies, and (ii) to Caithness, (x) all amounts due and owing to Caithness from or on behalf of the Sellers, APH, TOS, Funding, the Portfolio Companies or the Buyers pursuant to the Caithness Side Letter, including without limitation pursuant to Section 3, Section 5, Section 6 and Section 7 thereof, except for that amount identified in Section 6.d. of the Caithness Side Letter payable to Caithness to cover a portion of Mr. Collins’ severance benefits, the amount of any liabilities of the Sellers, APH, TOS, Funding or any of their Affiliates related to or arising out of the breach of their obligations under the Caithness Operative Agreements or claims made by the Buyers or their Affiliates in connection with the Caithness Services and $25,000 of that amount identified in Section 7 of the Caithness Side Letter payable to Caithness for services provided by Caithness to the Sellers outside the scope of the Caithness Services, and (y) the reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses actually incurred by Caithness during such Service Month related to the Caithness Services provided to the Buyers or the Portfolio Companies, including (1) any costs, fees and expenses arising pursuant to the Caithness Operative Agreements (to extent not duplicative of (x) above), and (2) such costs arising out of and including the transfer of connectivity and information technology infrastructure (including the procurement system, work management system and inventory system, but not including any such connectivity or infrastructure provided by the Buyers) used to perform the Services or the Caithness Services (the “Reimbursable Costs”), accompanied by commercially reasonable documentation supporting the Reimbursable Costs. The Reimbursable Costs shall be due and payable in accordance with Section 2(c) below. The Seller Representative shall provide advance written notice to the Buyers if Service Provider engages any third party to help provide Services or Caithness engages any third party to help provide Caithness Services, in each case where the costs and expenses of such third party would constitute Reimbursable Costs.

(c) Payment. Within five (5) days after the end of each Service Month, the Seller Representative shall submit to the Buyer Representative a written invoice relating to the Fees and the Reimbursable Costs. The Buyers shall pay, or cause the Portfolio Companies to pay, within thirty (30) days following the date of receipt of such invoice, all invoiced amounts related to the Services directly to the Service Provider. The Buyers shall pay, or cause the

D-6

Portfolio Companies to pay, (i) all amounts due Caithness pursuant to Section 2(b)(ii)(x) and Section 5 of this Agreement (to extent not duplicative) directly to Caithness in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Caithness Side Letter, and (ii) pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Caithness Operative Agreements and in any event, no later than twenty (20) days following receipt of such invoice.

Each of the Sellers, the Seller Representative and APH shall, for one (1) year after the expiration or termination of this Agreement, maintain records and other evidence sufficient to accurately and properly reflect the performance of the Services and the amounts invoiced by the Seller Representative to the Buyers and the Portfolio Companies with respect thereto. The Buyers shall have access at all reasonable times during such one (1) year period to examine and obtain copies of such records for the purpose of auditing and verifying the accuracy of the invoices submitted by the Seller Representative regarding the amounts due the Sellers and APH. Any such audits performed by or on behalf of any of the Buyers or the Portfolio Companies shall be at the Buyers’ sole cost and expense.

3. Covenants.

During the Service Period (but with respect to the Caithness O&M Services, in no event past the Applicable O&M Services End Date), the Services shall be performed by Service Provider in a diligent and prudent manner, with the degree of skill and judgment normally exercised by persons performing services of a similar nature, and in a manner and quality that are substantially consistent with Service Provider’s past practice in performing the Services for the Sellers’ benefit. The Sellers and APH shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause Caithness to perform the Caithness Services during the Service Period (but with respect to the Caithness O&M Services, in no event past the Applicable O&M Services End Date) in a diligent and prudent manner, with the degree of skill and judgment normally exercised by persons performing services of a similar nature, and in a manner and quality that are substantially consistent with Caithness’s past practice in performing the Caithness Services for the Sellers’ benefit. Unless otherwise agreed in writing by the parties, during the Service Period (but with respect to the Caithness O&M Services, in no event past the Applicable O&M Services End Date), the Service Provider shall, and the Sellers and APH shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause Caithness to, (a) furnish everything necessary and proper for, and incidental to, the performance of the Services or the Caithness Services, as applicable, including all labor, supervision, materials, equipment and related services, (b) secure all necessary third-party consents, permits and governmental approvals required to provide the Services or the Caithness Services, as applicable, and (c) report and pay all Taxes, including payroll, sales, use, excise and occupational taxes, applicable to the Services or the Caithness Services, as applicable. In addition, Service Provider shall, and the Sellers and APH shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause Caithness to, at all times during the Service Period (but with respect to the

D-7

Caithness O&M Services, in no event past the Applicable O&M Services End Date), comply with (x) as may be provided under the O&M Agreements or the Caithness Operative Agreements, as applicable, the written instructions and policies of any of the Buyers, the Portfolio Companies or the Buyer Representative which have been provided to the Seller Representative and (y) any applicable Permits and Laws relating to the Services or the Caithness Services, as applicable, provided hereunder and shall promptly notify the Buyers upon receiving notice of any investigation or notice regarding any noncompliance or alleged violation with respect thereto. The Buyer Representative shall furnish, or cause to be furnished, to the Seller Representative and Caithness, as applicable, such access, information, documentation, services and materials as are reasonably requested by Service Provider or Caithness to enable Service Provider or Caithness to perform the Services and the Caithness Services, as applicable.

(b) DISCLAIMER. EXCEPT AS SET FORTH IN SECTION 3(a), NONE OF THE SELLERS NOR APH MAKES ANY REPRESENTATION, WARRANTY OR GUARANTY, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, OF ANY KIND CONCERNING THE SERVICES OR THE CAITHNESS SERVICES OR ANY RESULTS AND SPECIFICALLY MAKES NO WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, AND NONE SHALL BE IMPLIED. ALL OTHER REPRESENTATIONS, WARRANTIES OR GUARANTEES, WRITTEN OR ORAL, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED IN FACT OR IN LAW, AND WHETHER OR NOT BASED ON STATUTE ARE HEREBY DISCLAIMED AND EXCLUDED.

(c) APH shall, and shall cause each of TOS and Funding to, comply with its and their obligations under, and enforce, the Caithness Operative Agreements in accordance with their respective terms and shall promptly notify the Buyer Representative of any default by APH, TOS, Funding or Caithness thereunder. APH shall not, and shall cause each of TOS and Funding not to, amend, modify, grant any waiver under or terminate the Caithness Operative Agreements without the prior written consent of the Buyer Representative in its sole discretion. APH shall not, and shall cause each of TOS and Funding not to, terminate pursuant to the Caithness Operative Agreements the provision by Caithness of any of the Caithness Services to the Facilities unless such termination is requested in writing by the Buyer Representative. APH shall, and shall cause each of TOS and Funding to, copy the Buyer Representative on, or promptly provide the Buyer Representative with copies of, any correspondence regarding the foregoing that it or they may have with Caithness. The Buyers acknowledge and agree that the Service Provider’s compliance with and enforcement of the terms of the Caithness Operative Agreements shall constitute sufficient use of its commercially reasonable efforts to cause Caithness to undertake all actions contemplated in this Agreement relating to Caithness and the Caithness Services.

4. Termination of the Services.

(a) Option to Terminate Services. The Buyers may elect for any reason, by giving written notice to Service Provider at least thirty (30) days in advance, to terminate the provision by Service Provider or Caithness of all or any category of the Services or the Caithness Services, as applicable, provided to the Buyers and the Portfolio Companies; provided that any termination of any category of the Caithness O&M Services or the Caithness Administrative Services, as applicable, shall not reduce the fees payable to Caithness hereunder and under the

D-8

Caithness Operative Agreements during the Service Period; provided, further, that, in the event of any termination of the Caithness O&M Services or the Caithness Administrative Services with respect to a particular Facility, the Buyers shall have no obligation to pay for such Caithness O&M Services or Caithness Administrative Services with respect to such Facility hereunder.

(b) Buyers’ Right to Terminate the Agreement.

(c) Sellers’ and APH’s Right to Suspend Performance. The Sellers and APH shall have the rights to suspend the performance of the Services and to cause the suspension of the performance of the Caithness Services in the event of the failure of the Buyers and the Portfolio Companies to make payments due and owing or to perform or observe any material term, covenant or agreement contained in this Agreement that have not been cured within ten (10) days after delivery of written notice of such failure to the Buyer Representative.

(d) Automatic Termination. This Agreement shall automatically terminate in the event that the Purchase Agreement is terminated pursuant to its terms, and the obligations of the parties hereunder shall terminate.

(e) Effect of Termination. Applicable provisions of this Agreement shall survive expiration or early termination of this Agreement to the extent necessary to enforce or complete the duties, obligations or responsibilities of the parties arising prior to such expiration or termination and, as applicable, to provide for final billings related to the period prior to expiration or termination and indemnification obligations provided in this Agreement.

5. Employee Transfer.

(a) The Buyers (or an entity designated by the Buyers) (the “New O&M Provider”) shall offer employment to each of the employees of Caithness Generation Services, LLC (“CGS”) as set forth on Exhibit A to the Caithness Side Letter (the “Employees”) no later than thirty (30) days, or such longer notice period required by law, prior to the first to occur of (i) the Applicable O&M Services End Date and (ii) the Services End Date (as defined in the Caithness Side Letter) (as to each such respective Employee, the “Transfer Date”), with annual compensation and benefits that are, in the aggregate, substantially similar to each such respective Employee’s compensation and benefits as of the date of this Agreement on an overall economic basis; provided, that the Buyers (or an entity designed by the Buyers) shall have no obligation to offer employment, to any Employee set forth on Exhibit A to the Caithness Side Letter who (A) has engaged in gross negligence, gross incompetence or willful misconduct in the performance of his or her duties, (B) has willfully engaged in conduct that is injurious to the Portfolio Companies (monetarily or otherwise), (C) has failed to adhere to the employment policies and standards of the Portfolio Companies, (D) has committed an act of fraud, embezzlement or willful breach of a fiduciary duty to the Portfolio Companies, (E) has been convicted of, pled guilty to, or pleaded no contest to, a crime involving fraud, dishonesty or moral turpitude, (F) has failed any drug test administered by the Buyers (or the Buyers’ selected

D-9

service provider) or (G) is on long-term disability; provided, that with respect to any Employee on short-term disability, the Buyers’ offer of employment to such Employee may be conditioned upon their return to regular employment prior to the Applicable O&M Services End Date. The parties hereby acknowledge that the Buyers will perform background checks on the Employees and, if any issue arises with respect to any Employee in connection with such background check, the Buyers will consider such issue in good faith in conjunction with the Sellers. Upon such consideration, if the Buyers decide not to hire such Employee, the Sellers shall pay to Caithness the amount contemplated in clause (ii) below of this Section 5(a) with respect to such Employee. Each Employee who accepts such offer (the “Transferred Employees”) shall be transferred to the New O&M Provider effective not later than the Transfer Date applicable to such Employee. The Buyers agree and acknowledge that any Employee who is not made an offer, does not accept such offer or is otherwise not transferred to the New O&M Provider shall be terminated by CGS as of the Applicable O&M Services End Date (as defined in the Caithness Side Letter) (“Terminated Employees”). Buyers agree and acknowledge that if the Buyers do not offer employment to an Employee in accordance with the terms of this paragraph (each such Employee, a “Non-Offer Employee”), then CGS shall notify each such Employee no later than thirty (30) days, or such longer notice period required by law, prior to the date such Non-Offer Employee’s employment shall be terminated in accordance with the terms of the Caithness Side Letter. In such case, the Buyers shall (i) continue to pay, or cause to be paid to, Caithness an amount representing pay and benefits for each Non-Offer Employee through the date that such Non-Offer Employee’s employment is terminated in accordance with the terms of the Caithness Side Letter; and (ii) shall pay, or cause to be paid to, Caithness an amount for each Non-Offer Employee equal to the product of (x) one week of pay and benefits for each such Non-Offer Employee, and (y) the number of years of service of such Non-Offer Employee, in each instance of (i) and (ii), in readily available funds, on the date such Non-Offer Employee’s employment is terminated in accordance with the terms of the Caithness Side Letter. Exhibit A to the Caithness Side Letter sets forth a list of all employees who provide services to the Facilities pursuant to the Caithness Operative Agreements.

(b) From the date of this Agreement though the Services End Date (as defined in the Caithness Side Letter), each of the Sellers and APH shall, and shall use their commercially reasonable efforts to cause Caithness to, only incur compensation, severance, benefits costs and related payroll costs relating to the Employees, Transferred Employees and Terminated Employees that are in the ordinary course of business and consistent with the Sellers, APH’s and Caithness’ past practices with respect to the Employees, and the Sellers and APH shall use their commercially reasonable efforts to cause Caithness to seek any consents of APH, TOS or Funding required under the Caithness Operative Agreements; provided, that, other than the severance for Non-Offer Employees from Caithness described in Section 6.a(ii) of the Caithness Side Letter, the Seller and APH shall not, and shall use their commercially reasonable efforts to cause Caithness not to, incur any severance costs, retention bonus costs or any related costs, in the case of the Sellers and APH, without the prior written consent of the Buyer Representative, and in the case of Caithness, without the prior written consent of APH, TOS or Funding. The Buyers shall pay to Caithness all compensation, severance, benefit costs and related payroll costs relating to the Employees, Transferred Employees and Terminated Employees, including but not limited to all pre-Transfer Date costs and any post-termination costs, solely to the extent such costs are incurred in accordance with the terms of the Caithness Side Letter, and the Buyers shall

D-10

indemnify Service Provider from and against such costs and any Losses relating to such Employees, Transferred Employees and Terminated Employees.

(c) The Buyers acknowledge and agree that Service Provider shall not be deemed to be in violation of this Agreement if Service Provider is unable to cause Caithness to provide the Caithness Services under this Agreement consistent with past practices as a result of any Employee resigning his or her employment prior to the Transfer Date; provided, that neither Service Provider nor Caithness shall have caused or induced such Employee to resign.

(d) The Buyers, or an entity designated by the Buyers, shall consider hiring Kevin Collins, an employee of Caithness Corporation, with compensation and benefits for Mr. Collins that are, in the aggregate, substantially similar to his current compensation and benefits. The parties acknowledge that the Buyers shall not have an obligation to make such an offer, or hire, Mr. Collins.

6. Relationships Among the Parties. Service Provider shall be an independent contractor with respect to the Services it provides hereunder. Nothing in this Agreement shall cause the relationship between Service Provider, on the one hand, and the Buyers, the Portfolio Companies and the Buyer Representative, on the other hand, to be deemed to constitute an agency, partnership or joint venture, or to cause any of Service Provider, the Buyers, the Portfolio Companies or the Buyer Representative to be treated as a co-employer with respect to employees, or to cause any of the Sellers or APH or any of their Affiliates to have any burdens or obligations of ownership or similar responsibilities with respect to the Facilities after the Closing. None of the Sellers, APH, any of their or its Affiliates or any of their respective officers or employees shall have any right, power or authority to make any warranty or representation on behalf of any of the Buyers or, after the Closing, the Portfolio Companies, contract for the Buyers or, after the Closing, the Portfolio Companies, or commit the Buyers or, after the Closing, the Portfolio Companies to any obligation or undertaking other than actions taken reasonably by the Sellers or APH in connection with an emergency situation of which any of the Sellers or APH notify the Buyer Representative within a reasonable time after its occurrence (and the Buyers or the Portfolio Companies shall indemnify the Sellers and APH for all reasonable and necessary out-of-pocket costs, expenses and liabilities incurred in connection with such emergency response).

7. Indemnity.

(a) Indemnification by the Buyers and the Portfolio Companies. Each of the Buyers shall or shall cause the Portfolio Companies to indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Sellers, APH, the Seller Representative and their and its Affiliates and their respective officers, directors, employees and agents (each, a “Seller Indemnified Party”) from and against any and all Losses (as defined below) arising from or in connection with (i) a breach of this Agreement by the Buyers or, after the Closing, the Portfolio Companies or (ii) a third party claim arising out of the Services, EVEN IF SUCH LOSSES ARISE OUT OF THE SOLE, JOINT OR CONCURRENT NEGLIGENCE, STRICT LIABILITY OR OTHER FAULT OF ANY SELLER INDEMNIFIED PARTY, BUT EXCLUDING SUCH LOSSES TO THE EXTENT RESULTING FROM THE FRAUD, BREACH OF CONTRACT OR WILLFUL MISCONDUCT OF ANY SELLER INDEMNIFIED PARTY. “Losses” means any and all liabilities, claims, losses,

(c) Remedy. EXCEPT AS SET FORTH IN SECTION 4 AND FOR SEEKING EQUITABLE RELIEF, THE SOLE REMEDY OF A PARTY IN CONNECTION WITH ANY FAILURE BY A PARTY TO PERFORM OR OBSERVE ANY TERM, PROVISION, COVENANT OR AGREEMENT ON THE PART OF SUCH PARTY TO BE PERFORMED OR OBSERVED UNDER THIS AGREEMENT SHALL, IN EACH CASE, BE AS SET FORTH IN THIS SECTION 6.

(d) Limit on Liability.

(e) Waiver. IN NO EVENT SHALL ANY PARTY BE LIABLE TO ANOTHER PARTY FOR SPECIAL, INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, CONSEQUENTIAL OR PUNITIVE LOSSES, DAMAGES OR EXPENSES (INCLUDING LOST PROFITS) ARISING FROM THIS AGREEMENT OR THE PERFORMANCE OR NON-PERFORMANCE OF SERVICES OR CAUSING OR FAILING TO CAUSE THE PERFORMANCE OR NON-PERFORMANCE OF THE CAITHNESS SERVICES HEREUNDER, OTHER THAN TO THE EXTENT SUCH DAMAGES ARE AWARDED PURSUANT TO THIRD PARTY CLAIMS FOR WHICH ONE PARTY IS OBLIGATED TO INDEMNIFY THE OTHER PARTY HEREUNDER, AND EACH OF THE BUYERS, THE SELLERS, THE PORTFOLIO COMPANIES AND APH EXPRESSLY WAIVE ANY RIGHTS EACH OF THEM MAY HAVE TO SEEK OR CLAIM ANY SUCH AMOUNTS.

(c) Force Majeure. Service Provider’s obligations to provide Services and the Sellers and APH obligations to use commercially reasonable efforts to cause Caithness to provide the Caithness Services, shall be suspended during the period, and to the extent that Service Provider or Caithness, as applicable, is prevented or hindered, in whole or in part, from complying therewith by any cause beyond its reasonable control, including, without limitation, extreme weather, fire, flood, earthquakes, other elements of nature or acts of God, civil disturbances, riots, rebellions, revolutions, accidents, labor disputes, court orders, acts of a governmental entity, acts of war, terrorist activity, or conditions arising out of or attributable to war (whether declared or undeclared) or terrorist activity, significant spread of contagious disease(s), or shortages of equipment, materials, labor or other resources (in each case, a “Force Majeure Event”).

(e) Headings. The headings in this Agreement are for reference purposes only and shall not in any way affect the meaning or interpretation of this Agreement.

(f) Governing Law.

i. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the Laws of the State of New York (without regard to the conflict of laws principles thereof). Each of the parties irrevocably agrees that any legal action or proceeding with respect to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby shall be brought and determined in any state or federal court in the Borough of Manhattan, New York, New York, and each of the parties irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of such courts solely in respect of any legal proceeding arising out of or related to this Agreement. The parties further agree that the parties shall not bring suit with respect to any disputes arising out of this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby in any court or jurisdiction other than the above specified courts; provided, however, that the foregoing shall not limit the rights of the parties to obtain execution of judgment in any other jurisdiction. The parties further agree, to the extent permitted by Law, that a final and unappealable judgment against a party in any action or proceeding contemplated above shall be conclusive and may be enforced in any other jurisdiction within or outside the United States by suit on the judgment, a certified copy of which shall be conclusive evidence of the fact and amount of such judgment. Except to the extent that a different

D-14

determination or finding is mandated due to the applicable Law being that of a different jurisdiction, the parties agree that all judicial determinations or findings by a state or federal court in the Borough of Manhattan, New York, New York with respect to any matter under this Agreement shall be binding.

ii. To the extent that any party has or hereafter may acquire any immunity from jurisdiction of any court or from any legal process (whether through service or notice, attachment prior to judgment, attachment in aid of execution, execution or otherwise) with respect to itself or its property, each such party hereby irrevocably (x) waives such immunity in respect of its obligations with respect to this Agreement and (y) submits to the personal jurisdiction of any court described in this Section 7(f).

iii. THE PARTIES HERETO AGREE THAT THEY HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVE THE RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION TO ENFORCE OR INTERPRET THE PROVISIONS OF THIS AGREEMENT.

(g) Amendments; Waiver. This Agreement cannot be terminated, altered or amended except pursuant to an instrument in writing signed by all the parties. No waiver by any party of any of the provisions hereof shall be effective unless explicitly set forth in writing and signed by the party so waiving. No failure to exercise, or delay in exercising, any right, remedy, power or privilege arising from this Agreement shall operate or be construed as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, remedy, power or privilege.

(h) Buyer Representative. The Buyer Representative is signing this Agreement solely for the purpose of giving and receiving notices hereunder on behalf of the Buyers and the Portfolio Companies. Any notice given by the Buyer Representative hereunder shall have the same force and effect as if given by the party on whose behalf the Buyer Representative is providing such notice. Each party hereby releases and waives the Buyer Representative from any and all liabilities, losses and claims arising under or with respect to this Agreement.

(i) No Third Party Beneficiaries. Except for the provisions of Sections 6(a) and 6(b), which are intended to be enforceable by the Seller Indemnified Parties and the Buyer Indemnified Parties respectively referred to therein, nothing in this Agreement is intended or shall be construed to give any person, other than the parties, their successors and permitted assigns, any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or in respect of this Agreement or any provision contained herein.

(j) Negotiated Agreement. This Agreement has been negotiated by the parties and the fact that any draft will have been prepared by any party shall not give rise to any presumption for or against any party or be used in any respect or forum in the construction or interpretation of this Agreement or any of its provisions.
