(iv) acquire, offer or propose to acquire, or agree to acquire, directly or indirectly, through swap or hedging transactions or otherwise, any Securities of the Company or the Utility or any rights decoupled from the underlying Securities of the Company or the Utility that would result in BlueMountain, its Affiliates and any individual or entity that would be deemed to be part of a “group” (as such term is defined in Section 13(d)(3) of the Exchange Act) with BlueMountain and or any of its Affiliates (the “13D Group”) owning, controlling or otherwise having any beneficial or other ownership interest in 5% or more of the voting Securities of the Company or the Utility outstanding at such time, based on the total number of shares of the common stock of the Company or the Utility, as applicable, outstanding as most

recently disclosed by the Company or the Utility in an Annual Report on Form 10-K or a Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q filed with the SEC or otherwise communicated in writing as of a more recent date by the Company or the Utility to BlueMountain; provided, that nothing herein will require common stock of the Company or the Utility to be sold to the extent that the 13D Group exceeds the ownership limits under this Section 4(a)(iv) as the result of a share repurchase or similar action by the Company or the Utility that reduces the number of outstanding shares of common stock of the Company or the Utility, respectively; provided, further, that this Section 4(a)(iv) shall not in any way restrict BlueMountain or its Affiliates from participating in any dilutive equity offering of the Company or the Utility in connection with the Chapter 11 Cases;

(vi) (A) call or request the calling of any meeting of shareholders of the Company or the Utility, including by written consent; (B) seek representation on, or nominate any candidate to, either of the Boards, except as contemplated by this Agreement; (C) seek the removal of any member of either of the Boards, except in connection with the enforcement of its rights under this Agreement; (D) conduct a referendum of shareholders of the Company or the Utility; or (E) present any proposal at any annual meeting or any special meeting of the shareholders of the Company or the Utility;

(xii) request, directly or indirectly, any amendment or waiver of the foregoing provisions of this Section 4(a).

(d) Each of the Company and the Utility agree that, during the Standstill Period, unless there is a material breach of any provision of this Agreement by BlueMountain or its Affiliates, it shall not, and shall cause each of its Affiliates not to, directly or indirectly, in any manner, alone or in concert with others, make or cause to be made, or in any way knowingly encourage any other person to make or cause to be made, any public statement or announcement, including in any document or report filed with or furnished to the SEC or through the press, media, analysts or similar persons, that criticizes or otherwise disparages BlueMountain, its Affiliates or any of their respective current or former directors or officers.

(e) BlueMountain will cause to be present for quorum purposes and vote or cause to be voted all voting Securities beneficially owned by BlueMountain and its respective Affiliates that they are entitled to vote as of the applicable record date in favor of the election of the nominees for election to the Company Board and the Utility Board at the 2019 Annual Meeting recommended by the Company Board and the Utility Board in the joint proxy statement of the Company and the Utility and on the joint proxy card of the Company and the Utility relating to the 2019 Annual Meeting, so long as such nominees consist solely of the thirteen members of the Company Board immediately following the execution and delivery of this Agreement, Johnson and, if nominated for election to the Company Board, the Renewable Designee;

8. Governing Law; Forum. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the state of California, without regard to its conflict of laws principles. Any action brought to enforce this Agreement shall be brought in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Northern District of California or, if such court does not have jurisdiction, any federal or state court located in the state of California, and BlueMountain and the Company hereby agree and irrevocably consent to the jurisdiction of such courts and waive any objection to such venue on the grounds that it is an inconvenient forum.

It is further understood and agreed that, pursuant to California Civil Code § 1717, if any action is

initiated by or against any Party to enforce the provisions of this Agreement, the successful party in any such action shall be entitled to reimbursement from the party accused of violating the terms hereof for all costs and expenses, including reasonable counsel fees arising out of or relating to this Agreement, including any non-contractual claims that contribute to the success of any contract-based claim.

10. Amendment; Waiver. This Agreement may be modified or waived only by a separate writing executed by BlueMountain and the Company that expressly so modifies or waives this Agreement. Failure or delay in exercising any right, power or privilege hereunder shall not operate as a waiver thereof, and no single or partial exercise of any right, power or privilege hereunder shall preclude any other or further exercise of any right, power or privilege.

11. Entire Agreement. This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement between BlueMountain and the Company with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersedes all prior or contemporaneous agreements, understandings, negotiations and discussions with respect thereto, whether oral or written.

12. Severability. If at any time subsequent to the date hereof, any provision of this Agreement shall be held by any court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, such provision shall be of no force and effect to the extent of such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability, but the illegality or unenforceability of such provision shall have no effect upon the legality or enforceability of any other provision of this Agreement.

13. No Party as Drafter. None of the Parties nor their respective attorneys shall be deemed to be the drafter of this Agreement for purposes of interpreting or construing any of the provisions of this Agreement. This Agreement shall be interpreted in accordance with the fair meaning of its language and not strictly for or against any of the Parties. In this regard, the Parties stipulate and agree that the terms of this Agreement are neither uncertain nor ambiguous; accordingly, each Party waives the applicability of California Civil Code §§ 1649 and 1654.

Each of the signatories hereto represents and warrants that he or she has been duly authorized to execute this Agreement on behalf of the Party for whom he or she signs and to bind such Party to this Agreement. The Parties stipulate and agree that this Agreement does not need to be approved by any court in connection with the bankruptcy petition filed by the Company or the Utility, but if such court ultimately were to conclude that approval is required, the Parties agree, at their own expense, to take any reasonable actions necessary to obtain such approval and agree not to take any action, or support any action by any third party, whether directly or indirectly, to oppose approval of this Agreement.
