ITEM 1.01 ENTRY INTO A MATERIAL DEFINITIVE AGREEMENT

On May 27, 2009, MMC Energy, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“MMC” or the “Company”) announced that it had signed a definitive purchase agreement with affiliates of Wellhead Electric Company, Inc. providing for the sale of substantially all the operating assets of MMC in an all-cash transaction for an aggregate purchase price of $4,865,500 (the “Asset Sale”). The Asset Sale is an important step in a contemplated liquidation of MMC.

Asset Purchase Agreement

On May 21, 2009, MMC entered into a definitive purchase agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with Wellhead Electric Equipment, LLC, California Holdings McCall, LLC and Escondido II, LLC, all of which are affiliated entities of Wellhead Electric Company, Inc., providing for the sale of substantially all of MMC’s remaining operating assets (except for MMC’s two GE LM6000 PC Sprint turbines, acquired at a cost of $31 million and currently held for sale) for $4,865,500 in cash. 

The purchase price may be adjusted by the amount of any Current Asset Baseline Adjustment (as defined in the Purchase Agreement) and decreased by (A) $231,000 in connection with Wellhead’s optional acquisition of the Callidus SCR Contracts (as defined in the Purchase Agreement) prior to closing and (B) the amount of the EBITDA (which may be a negative number), if any, that accrues for the benefit of Wellhead or MMC under the Asset Management Agreements to the extent specifically provided for therein (as described below under “Transition Asset Management Agreements”).

The Board of Directors of MMC has unanimouslyapproved the proposed transaction set forth in the Purchase Agreement.  The closing of the proposed transaction is subject to certain customary closing conditions, including that the representations and warranties of the parties contained in the Purchase Agreement are true and correct in all material respects as of the time they speak, approval by a majority of the Company’s stockholders, the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission and various additional regulatory approvals. The closing is scheduled to occur upon the earlier of Wellhead’s full assumption of the asset management services as described below under “Transition Asset Management Agreements” or August 31, 2009, assuming all other remaining closing conditions have been satisfied at such time.

MMC has made customary representations, warranties and covenants in the Purchase Agreement including, among others, a covenant to use commercially reasonable efforts to conduct the operations of its operating subsidiaries in the ordinary course during the period between the execution of the Purchase Agreement and the completion of the Asset Sale. The Purchase Agreement contains a “no solicitation” restriction on the Company’s ability to solicit third party proposals and on its ability to provide information and engage in discussions and negotiations with unsolicited third parties.  The no solicitation provision is subject to a “fiduciary out” provision that allows the Company to provide information and participate in discussions and negotiations with respect to unsolicited third party acquisition proposals submitted after the date of the Purchase Agreement that the Board of Directors determines in good faith constitutes a “Superior Proposal,” as defined in the Purchase Agreement.

The Purchase Agreement may be terminated under certain circumstances, including by either party if the other party is in material breach of any representation, warranty or covenant contained in the Purchase Agreement or by MMC if its Board of Directors determines in good faith that it has received a Superior Proposal and that it is required to terminate the Purchase Agreement in order to comply with its fiduciary duties, and otherwise complies with certain terms of the Purchase Agreement.  In connection with such termination, the Company may be obligated to pay a termination fee of $550,000 to Wellhead plus the return  of $2,000,000 which has been held in escrow as a deposit pending the closing of the Asset Sale (the “Deposit”). 

Further, if this Purchase Agreement is terminated for any reason, MMC may be obligated to reimburse Wellhead for all its reasonable third-party costs expended in connection with the refurbishments and the installation and removal of replacement property (incurred in connection with the provision of the Remediation Services, defined below under “Transition Asset Management Agreements”) up to $500,000. MMC may also be obligated to pay an additional termination fee to Wellhead equal to the “Positive EBITDA Amount” as defined below under “Transition Asset Management Agreements.”

MMC has also agreed to indemnify Wellhead with respect to losses Wellhead suffers related to or resulting from any breach of MMC’s representations, warranties, covenants or agreements. MMC’s aggregate liability for such losses will in no event exceed $2,000,000 (except in the case of  taxes, fraud or willful misconduct). To qualify for indemnification, Wellhead must make a claim within ninety days after the closing date of the Asset Sale.

MMC has filed a copy of the Purchase Agreement as Exhibit 2.1 to this current report on Form 8-K and the summary of the terms of the Purchase Agreement herein is qualified by reference to the Purchase Agreement itself. The Purchase Agreement has been included to provide investors and security holders with information regarding its terms.  It is not intended to provide any other factual information about MMC or Wellhead. The representations, warranties and covenants contained in the Purchase Agreement were made only for purposes of such agreement and as of specific dates, were solely for the benefit of the parties to such agreement, and may be subject to limitations agreed upon by the contracting parties, including being qualified by confidential disclosures exchanged between the parties in connection with the execution of the Purchase Agreement. The representations, warranties and covenants may have been made for the purposes of allocating contractual risk between the parties to the agreement instead of establishing these matters as facts, and may be subject to standards of materiality applicable to the contracting parties that differ from those applicable to investors.  Investors are not third party beneficiaries under the Purchase Agreement and should not rely on the representations, warranties and covenants or any descriptions thereof as characterizations of the actual state of facts or condition of MMC, Wellhead or any of their respective subsidiaries or affiliates. Moreover, information concerning the subject matter of the representations, warranties and covenants may change after the date of the Purchase Agreement, which subsequent information may or may not be fully reflected in MMC’s public disclosures.

Transition Asset Management Agreements

In connection with the Purchase Agreement, MMC executed two Transition Asset Management Agreements on May 21, 2009 (the “Asset Management Agreements”) pursuant to which MMC granted to Wellhead the right to (i) manage the operation of MMC’s Chula Vista and Escondido facilities (the “Projects”) (the “Transition Services”) and (ii) access the Projects to undertake, as Wellhead may elect, the maintenance, improvement or upgrade of the equipment associated with the Projects, at Wellhead’s own expense (the “Remediation Services”). The Chula Vista Asset Management Agreement is by and among MMC, MMC Energy North America, LLC, MMC Chula Vista, LLC, Wellhead Electric Equipment, LLC and California Holdings McCall, LLC. The Escondido Asset Management Agreement is by and among MMC, MMC Energy North America, LLC, MMCEscondido, LLC, Wellhead Electric Equipment, LLC and California Holdings McCall, LLC. Copies of the Escondido Asset Management Agreement and Chula Vista Asset Management Agreement are attached hereto as Exhibits 10.30 and 10.31, respectively. The summary of the terms of the Asset Management Agreements herein is qualified by reference to the Asset Management Agreements themselves.

Pursuant to the Asset Management Agreements, Wellhead will have the right  to undertake all day-to-day operation and management decisions relating to the Projects and their related assets except for certain specified actions such as any action that would constitute a change in control under the Federal Power Act or which affect MMC’s market based rate tariff.

In consideration for Wellhead’s providing the Transition Services, from and after the commencement of the Transition Services, Wellhead shall (i) be reimbursed for Wellhead’s operating expenses or any other operating expenses advanced by Wellhead and (ii) in the event the closing of the Asset Sale occurs, be entitled to a reduction of the purchase price payable at the closing in an amount equal to (1) from and after the commencement of the Transition Services until the giving of the Buyer EBITDA Notice (as defined below), 50% of the EBITDA arising from the Project during such portion of the Transition Services and (2) from and after the giving of a Buyer EBITDA Notice until the end of the Transition Services, 100% of the EBITDA arising from the Project during such portion of the Transition Services, if such aggregate EBITDA over the term of the Transition Services (calculated in accordance with the Asset Management Agreements) allocated to Buyer is a positive number (the “Positive EBITDA Amount”).

In the event  the closing occurs and the aggregate amount of the EBITDA from the Project allocated to Wellhead during the term of the Transition Services (including the specified allocation to Wellhead of such EBITDA before and after the giving of any Buyer EBITDA Notice, if any) is a negative number (the “Negative EBITDA Amount”), then MMC shall be entitled to an increase of the purchase price payable at the closing in an amount equal to the lesser of (1) such Negative EBITDA Amount and (2) the Negative EBITDA Amount based on a calculation where (x) the maximum Negative EBITDA Amount during the portion of the term of the Transition Services when Wellhead shall be entitled to 50% of the EBITDA shall be $250,000 and (y) the maximum Negative EBITDA Amount during the portion of the term of the Transition Services when Wellhead shall be entitled to 100% of the EBITDA, together with any Negative EBITDA Amount allocated under clause (x), shall be $500,000; provided that in no event shall the amount of the adjustment to the purchase price, together with any other amounts payable by Wellhead under the Asset Management Agreement, exceed a total aggregate amount of (i) $250,000, in the event Wellhead does not deliver a Buyer EBITDA Notice and (ii) $500,000, in the event the Wellhead does deliver a Buyer EBITDA Notice.

The “Buyer EBITDA Notice” is a written notice delivered by Wellhead to us which states that, from and after the date of such written notice, Wellhead will have the benefit of 100% of the Positive EBITDA Amount arising after the date of such written notice until the end of the term of the Transition Services.  The EBITDA notices and related EBITDA sharing will be made on an individual plant basis and the limits described above apply per plant and not in the aggregate.  Regardless of closing, MMC shall continue to receive all of the revenues earned, and bear all of the operating expenses for its own account, subject to the sharing as required.

           In the event that (i) the closing of the Asset Sale does not occur, (ii) the Purchase Agreement is terminated and (iii) in connection with such termination Wellhead is entitled to a return of the Deposit under the terms of the Purchase Agreement:

· if there shall be a Positive EBITDA Amount for the Transition Services so that a decrease to the purchase price would have been in effect if the closing had occurred, then, in addition to the reimbursement of Wellhead’s operating expenses, MMC will pay Wellhead a termination payment in an amount equal to the Positive EBITDA Amount that would have been applied as a decrease to the Purchase Price and, accordingly, as the assets we intend to sell pursuant to the Asset Sale generate all of MMC's revenue, MMC would not have generated any revenue during the term of the Transition Services.

· if there is a Negative EBITDA Amount for the Transition Services so that an increase to the Purchase Price would have been in effect if the closing had occurred, then Wellhead will pay a termination payment in an amount equal to the Negative EBITDA Amount that would have been applied as an increase to the purchase price; and

· notwithstanding the foregoing, if there has been an event of loss with respect to a Project such that there shall be proceeds under the Existing Project Insurance constituting all, or substantially all, of the replacement value of the Project (a “Total Loss Event”), then for purposes of calculating any termination payment payable to Wellhead or MMC, (x) 50% of the amount of such insurance proceeds paid under any existing Project insurance with respect to such Total Loss Event shall be payable by MMC to Wellhead as an additional termination payment (a “Total Loss Payment”), and (y) the amount of such insurance proceeds payable under the existing Project insurance and any amounts relating to the cost of repair or replacement cost of a Project shall not be included in the calculation of EBITDA.

In addition, all of the items listed below relating to the purchased assets will be prorated between MMC and Wellhead as of the effective date of the Transition Services and, to the extent such items have not been taken into account in the purchase price adjustments provided for above, a corresponding adjustment shall be made to the purchase price, with MMC being responsible for such items relating to any period prior to the effective date of the Transition Services provided under each relevant Asset Management Agreement and Wellhead responsible for such items relating to periods on and after such effective dates: (i) real and personal property taxes due in respect of the Owned Real Property Interests and the Leased Property Interests (as defined in the Purchase Agreement), (ii) utilities, and (iii) interconnection agreements.

ITEM 8.01 OTHER EVENTS

The Asset Sale is a critical step in the Company’s Plan of Complete Liquidation and Dissolution (the “Plan of Liquidation”), which will be disclosed in further detail in the Company’s proxy statement to be filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) in connection with the solicitation of stockholder approval of the Asset Sale and the Plan of Liquidation.  Assuming stockholder approval of the Asset Sale and the Plan of Liquidation, liquidating distributions, in an amount to be determined, are expected to begin shortly following the completion of the Asset Sale.  .

MMC also intends to amend its Certificate of Incorporation to eliminate its preferred stock and reduce the number of authorized shares of common stock from 300,000,000 to 15,000,000.  If the Asset Sale and Plan of Liquidation are approved, there will be a significant number of shares of authorized common stock in excess of the Company’s needs. The elimination of the excess common stock will reduce the Company’s tax liabilities during the winding down of its operations.

On May 27, 2009, MMC issued a press release in which it announced that it had entered into the Purchase Agreement. A copy of the press release is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 and incorporated herein by reference.

Forward-Looking Information Is Subject to Risk and Uncertainty

A number of the matters discussed in this Current Report on Form 8-K that are not historical or current facts deal with potential future circumstances and developments, in particular, whether and when the Asset Sale will be consummated. The discussion of such matters is qualified by the inherent risks and uncertainties surrounding future expectations generally and also may materially differ from actual future experience involving any one or more of such matters. Such risks and uncertainties include, among others: approval of the Asset Sale and the Plan of Liquidation by MMC’s stockholders; the timing of the stockholders meeting; satisfaction of various other conditions to the closing of the Asset Sale; termination of the Purchase Agreement pursuant to their terms; the timing and amount of cash distributed to stockholders; and the risks that are described from time to time in MMC’s reports filed with the SEC, including its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2008, as amended, and subsequent Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q. This current report on Form 8-K speaks only as of its date, and MMC disclaims any duty to update the information herein.

Additional Information and Where to Find It

In connection with stockholder approval of the Asset Sale and the Plan of Liquidation, MMC intends to file a proxy statement and other materials with the SEC. Stockholders of MMC are advised to read the proxy statement and any other relevant documents filed with the SEC when they become available because those documents will contain important information about the Asset Sale and the Plan of Liquidation.  Stockholders may obtain a free copy of the proxy statement when it becomes available, and other documents filed with the SEC, at the SEC’s web site at http://www.sec.gov. Free copies of the proxy statement, when it becomes available, and MMC’s other filings with the SEC, may also be obtained from MMC by directing a request to Denis Gagnon, our Chief Financial Officer, at MMC Energy, Inc., 27 Broadway, Suite 960, New York, New York 10004.

MMC and its directors, executive officers and other members of its management and employees may be deemed to be participants in the solicitation of proxies from MMC’s stockholders in favor of the Asset Sale and the Plan of Liquidation. Information regarding MMC’s directors and executive officers is available in Amendment No. 1 to MMC’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2008 filed with the SEC on April 30, 2009.  Additional information regarding the interests of such potential participants will be included in the proxy statement and the other relevant documents filed with the SEC when they become available.

WHEREAS, subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, Seller desires to transfer to Buyers and Buyers desire to acquire certain assets of the Seller through Buyers’ acquisition of the Acquired Companies, which assets by asset classification and Acquired Company are as set forth in Schedule A hereto (the “Purchased Assets”) and the related liabilities (if any) in respect of such Purchased Assets to the extent specifically listed on Schedule A; and

WHEREAS, terms used herein shall have the respective meanings ascribed to such terms in Section 8.16, unless otherwise noted.

(i)           After consultation with outside counsel, the Board of Directors of the Seller, consistent with the exercise of its fiduciary duties, shall take such actions consistent with its obligations under this Agreement, as it deems reasonably required to assure the integrity of the process contemplated by this Section 4.2.

(a)           Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, each of the parties hereto agrees to use its commercially reasonable efforts to take, or cause to be taken, all appropriate action, to file or cause to be filed, all documents and to do, or cause to be done, all commercially reasonable things necessary, proper or advisable under applicable Laws to expeditiously consummate and make effective the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, including the consummation of the Transfer and including preparing and filing as promptly as practicable all documentation to effect all necessary filings, consents, licenses, approvals, authorizations, permits or orders from Governmental Entities or other persons.

(b)           Without limiting the foregoing in Section 4.6(a), the Buyers and Guarantor agree to (i) use their commercially reasonable efforts to prepare any required filings with and submissions to the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (“FERC Filings”) which the Seller or the Buyers determines should be made, in each case, with respect to the Transaction, the Acquired Companies and the transactions contemplated hereby as promptly as reasonably practicable, subject to prior review, comment, approval and execution of the Seller (which approval and execution shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed)  but in any event, within ten (10) Business Days of the date hereof, which Seller shall cause to be filed promptly thereafter, and each of Seller, the Buyers and Guarantor agrees to supply as promptly as reasonably practicable any additional information and documentary material that may be requested pursuant to the FERC Filings, and each of the Seller, the Buyers and Guarantor shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to take or cause to be taken all commercially reasonable actions necessary, proper or advisable consistent with this Section 4.6 to cause the expiration or termination of the applicable waiting periods as soon as practicable, and (ii) reasonably cooperate with one another (A) in promptly determining whether any filings are required to be or should be made or consents, approvals, permits or authorizations are required to be or should be obtained under any other federal, state or foreign Law or whether any consents, approvals or waivers are required to be or should be obtained from other parties to loan agreements or other contracts or instruments material to the Seller’s business in connection with the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and (B) in promptly making any such filings, furnishing information required in connection therewith and seeking to obtain as expeditiously as practicable any such consents, permits, authorizations, approvals or waivers. Buyers, Guarantor and Seller shall promptly inform the other parties hereto of any oral, and provide copies of any written, communication with a Governmental Entity regarding any such filings or information.  In the event that any action, suit, proceeding or investigation relating hereto or to the transactions contemplated hereby is commenced, whether before or after the date hereof, the parties hereto agree to cooperate and will use their commercially reasonable efforts to defend vigorously against it and respond thereto.

Section 4.7            Press Releases.  Each of the parties agrees that no public release or announcement concerning the transactions contemplated hereby shall be issued by any party without the prior written consent of the Seller and Guarantor (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), except as such release or announcement may be required by Law or the rules or regulations of any applicable United States securities exchange or regulatory or governmental body to which the relevant party is subject or submits, wherever situated; provided, however, that the restrictions set forth in this Section 4.7 shall not apply to any release or announcement made or proposed to be made by the Seller pursuant to and in compliance with Section 4.2.

25

Section 4.8            Tax Matters.

(a)           Seller will prepare and file, or cause to be prepared and filed, any Tax Returns of the Acquired Companies for any taxable period beginning on or before the Closing and ending at the Closing Date.  The Buyers shall prepare and file, or cause to be prepared and filed, any Tax Returns of the Acquired Companies for any taxable period beginning after the Closing Date.  The Buyers agree to cooperate with Seller, and Seller agrees to cooperate with Buyers, to provide any information requested by Seller or Buyers, as the case may be, in order to prepare such returns.

(b)           The Buyers shall be liable for, and shall indemnify and hold Seller harmless from, any Taxes imposed on the Acquired Companies with respect to any period beginning after the Closing Date.

(c)           All real and personal property Taxes assessed on an annual basis, will be prorated between Seller and Buyers as of the Closing Date as provided in Section 1.3(b) based on the assumption that an equal amount of such Taxes applies to each day of the year, regardless of how any installment payments are billed or made, except that the Buyers will bear all supplemental or other state and local real and property Taxes which arise out of a change in ownership of the Acquired Companies and the Purchased Assets.  Seller shall pay its portion of such real and personal property Taxes to the Buyers on the Closing Date, and except as provided in the next sentence, shall have no further liability or obligation with respect to such Taxes.  If the amount of all real and personal property Taxes due for the 2009 year (commencing January 1, 2009) has not been assessed by the taxing authorities as of the Closing Date, then the amount of real and personal property Taxes as prorated between Seller and the Buyers for the 2009 tax year will be estimated on the basis of the 2008 tax year’s real and personal property Taxes and such amount will be subject to a true-up adjustment after the Closing Date based upon the actual amount of Taxes assessed.

(d)           After the Closing Date in the case of any audit, examination, or other proceeding with respect to Taxes for which Seller is or may be liable hereunder, the Buyers shall inform Seller within thirty (30) days of the receipt of any notice of such proceeding and shall keep Seller informed of the progress of such proceedings.  Seller shall be entitled to fully participate in any proceeding.  The Buyers shall not agree to any adjustments which affect taxable periods for which Seller is liable for payment of Tax without first receiving the consent of Seller, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld.

(e)           All excise, sales, use, transfer (including real property transfer), stamp, documentary, filing, recordation and other similar Taxes, together with any interest, additions or penalties with respect thereto and any interest in respect of such additions or penalties, resulting directly from the sale and transfer by Seller to the Buyers of the Membership Interests, shall be paid by the Buyers.

26

Section 4.9            No Prior Knowledge.  The Buyer and Guarantor represent and warrant to Seller that none of the Buyers or Guarantor has Knowledge of any assertion by a person not a party to this Agreement of any breach by Seller of any obligation of Seller pertaining to any representation, warranty, covenant or other agreement in this Agreement. Furthermore, the Buyers and Guarantor hereby agree that neither the Buyers nor any Affiliate of the Buyers shall have any claim or recourse against Seller or its directors, officers, employees, Affiliates, controlling persons, agents, advisors or representatives with respect to any breach by Seller of any representation, warranty, covenant or other agreement under this Agreement or otherwise, if any of the Buyers, Guarantor or their respective Affiliates had Knowledge prior to the execution of this Agreement of such breach, and such breach shall be deemed waived for purposes of Sections 6.3 and 7.1.

Section 4.10          Mid-Sun Facility.  At no cost to Seller, at Seller’s request, Guarantor will act as manager of Seller’s Mid-Sun facility and, under the direction of Seller, perform all winding-up services required by Seller to complete the liquidation of assets and obligations related to that site. All such services shall be performed in accordance with the commercially reasonable directions of the Seller. Seller shall be free to terminate such appointment at any time in its sole discretion.

Section 4.11          Consultant Costs/MMC California Energy Commission Permits.  Seller shall bear all costs, including the costs of Bingham McCutchen LLP, of applying for and otherwise seeking to obtain certification for the Chula Vista Energy Upgrade Project from the California Energy Commission (the “CEC Permits”) through April 23, 2009. At, and to the extent of, Guarantor’s request, Seller shall use commercially reasonable efforts to continue or discontinue the pursuit of the CEC Permits on behalf of the Acquired Companies; provided, however, that Guarantor shall be responsible for (regardless of any termination or expiration of this Agreement), and shall promptly reimburse Seller to the extent paid by Seller, all such third-party costs incurred in connection with the continuation of such pursuit from April 24, 2009 until the earlier of the receipt of such CEC Permits or the date upon which Guarantor requests Seller to discontinue pursuit of the CEC Permits, irrespective of whether a Closing occurs.

Section 4.12          Storage and Demurrage Costs.  Guarantor has paid or shall immediately pay upon execution of this Agreement to the Seller, the amount of $585, which represents certain demurrage costs incurred by the Seller with respect to the Fortune Transformers stored by an Affiliate of Buyers for Seller. Guarantor has paid Seller the amount of $66,000, which represents the storage costs associated with the Chula Vista Turbines.

Section 4.13          Other Permits.  Seller, with the advice and consent of Guarantor, shall use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain the modification of the permits issued pursuant to Title V by the San Diego County Air Pollution Control District that are to be transferred to the Acquired Companies such that they shall allow usage of the currently installed Pratt & Whitney FT4 Twin Pack engines (or of substantially identical replacements thereof) at either Escondido or Chula Vista (the “Title V Permits Modification”).

27

Section 4.14          Upgrades; Remedial Matters.

(a)           Subject to the terms of this Section 4.14(a), Seller hereby acknowledges and agrees that to the extent any maintenance, improvement or upgrade effectuated by Buyers and/or Guarantor under Section 2.1(a) of the Asset Management Agreements involves removing any existing equipment (or component thereof) and replacing it with replacement equipment (or replacement component), each such item of replacement equipment and replacement component (“Replacement Property”) shall be the sole property of Buyers and/or Guarantor (as applicable), and the Seller Parties shall have no right, title or interest therein and Seller hereby disclaims, on its behalf and on behalf of its Subsidiaries and Affiliates, any interest therein. Moreover, Seller shall hold, or cause its Subsidiaries and Affiliates to hold, such Replacement Property for the Buyers and/or Guarantor (as applicable) as their agent and bailee and shall only accept instructions from the Buyers and/or Guarantor with respect to the treatment, storage, maintenance, use and disposition of same. To further evidence the Buyers’ and/or Guarantor’s ownership interest in the Replacement Property and the bailment created thereby, (i) upon Buyers’ and/or Guarantor’s request, Seller or another applicable Seller Party shall execute and deliver to Buyers and/or Guarantor one or more bailment agreements (or similar agreements) in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to all parties with respect to all such Replacement Property pursuant to which Seller or another applicable Seller Party acknowledges the creation and existence of such bailment and agrees to only accept instructions from the Buyers and/or Guarantor with respect to the treatment, storage, maintenance, use and disposition of such Replacement Property, and (ii) Seller on its behalf and on behalf of its Subsidiaries and Affiliates hereby authorizes the Buyers and Guarantor to prepare and file precautionary Uniform Commercial Code financing statements to put third parties on notice that, even though the Replacement Property may be located on the premises of Seller, its Subsidiaries or Affiliates and affixed to property of Seller, its Subsidiaries or Affiliates, such Replacement Property is, nonetheless, the exclusive property of the Buyers and/or Guarantor. No inference shall be taken that the filing of such financing statements vests any ownership interest or rights in Seller, its Subsidiaries or Affiliates to the Replacement Property and Seller, on its behalf and on behalf of its Subsidiaries and Affiliates, hereby expressly waives any such interest, nor shall any inference be taken that the filing of such financing statements reflects that a lien has been created in favor of the Buyers and/or the Guarantor on the Sellers’ property in violation of the Credit Facility. Seller shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to assure that in the event of any bankruptcy proceeding commenced by or against Seller, its Subsidiaries or Affiliates, under no circumstance shall any of the Replacement Property be considered “property of the estate” (as such term is contemplated in the “Automatic Stay” provision of 11 USC 362).

Seller hereby further acknowledges and agrees that to the extent any maintenance, improvement or upgrade effectuated by Buyers and/or Guarantor under Section 2.1(a) of the Asset Management Agreements involves refurbishing any existing equipment (or component thereof) (“Refurbishment”), Buyers and/or Guarantor shall constitute “mechanics,” “persons furnishing materials,” “artisans” and/or “laborers” for purposes of application of Article XIV, §3 of the California Constitution such that mechanics liens shall, upon Buyers and/or Guarantor satisfying the applicable procedural steps, be created in favor of Buyers and/or Guarantor (as applicable) in accordance with Section 3109 et. seq. of the California Civil Code (“Mechanics Lien Law”). Upon the creation of any such mechanics liens, Buyers and/or Guarantor shall be entitled to perfect its mechanics liens with respect to such Refurbishments in accordance with the Mechanics Lien Law.

28

If this Agreement is terminated for any reason, (i) Buyers or Guarantor shall be entitled to remove the Replacement Property upon replacement thereof, with the predecessor item of equipment (or component thereof) and (ii) if termination is pursuant to Section 7.1(a), Section 7.1(b), Section 7.1(d), Section 7.1(f), Section 7.1(g), Section 7.1(h) or by Seller pursuant to Section 7.1(c), Seller shall reimburse Buyers or Guarantor for all reasonable third-party costs expended by Buyers or Guarantor in connection with the Refurbishments and the installation and removal of the Replacement Property (including the reasonable fully burdened costs of Buyers’ or Guarantor’s internal labor) other than the costs of the removed Replacement Property, up to $500,000, which amount shall be invoiced to Seller at the time of termination and shall be payable to Buyers or Guarantor at the time the Deposit is returned to Buyers pursuant to Section 7.4; provided, however, that Buyers and Guarantor shall not be entitled to such reimbursement if there is a Total Loss Event (as defined in the Asset Management Agreements) and a Buyer receives a Total Loss Payment (as defined in the Asset Management Agreements) with respect to a Project (as defined in the Asset Management Agreements) under the applicable Asset Management Agreement; provided, further, that the maximum reimbursable amount in respect of the other Project shall be reduced to $250,000 in the event of such Total Loss Event. With the consent of Guarantor, not to be unreasonably withheld, Seller shall be entitled to offset and deduct from any such reimbursement, any amount due to Seller pursuant to the Asset Management Agreements. Upon completion of the Removal of the Replacement Property and reimbursement of the costs provided for in this Section 4.14(a), Buyers and Guarantor shall release any precautionary Uniform Commercial Code financing statements and release any mechanics liens.

(b)           Seller shall use reasonable commercial efforts to:

(i)           obtain prior to Closing an amendment, in a form acceptable to Seller but subject to the prior review, comment and approval of Guarantor (such approval not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed), of the Covenant and Agreement to Restrict Operation of RAMCO Peak Power Plant dated April 12, 2001, and recorded in the Official Records of San Diego County as Document #2001-0275691 (the “Covenant Agreement”), which amendment shall: (A) provide that the Covenant Agreement shall automatically terminate upon the removal of installed Pratt & Whitney FT4 Twin Pac engines located within the “Plant” as defined in the Covenant Agreement, completion of either the upgrades approved for Escondido via Conditional Use Permit and Zone Code Amendment 2007-28-CUP and 2007-04-AZ or upgrades that are reasonably expected to result in equivalent or better air quality (the “Condition”), and (B) require that upon the satisfaction of the Condition the parties to the Covenant Agreement shall record a termination agreement, quitclaim or other sufficient legal document in the official records of San Diego County to remove the Covenant Agreement from public record. The amendment (the “Covenant Agreement Amendment”) shall be subject to Guarantor's approval, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed, and must be given if the Covenant Agreement Amendment contains the provisions set forth in (A) and (B) above and does not impose any additional restrictions on the Plant, the Property as defined in the Covenant Agreement or related equipment, and/or impose any other material financial obligations or conditions on the Plant, Property or related equipment, and/or the Guarantor’s use of the Plant, Property or related equipment; and

29

(ii)          assist Guarantor in obtaining a modification (to the satisfaction of Guarantor) of the License Agreement dated December 4, 2002, with the North San Diego County Transit Development Board (the “NCTB”). Such modification (the “NCTB License Modification”) shall limit the right of the NCTB to require the removal of Escondido’s interconnection facilities from the NCTB right of way or license area,; provided, however, that obtaining the NCTB License Modification prior to the Closing shall not be a condition to Closing and shall not constitute a covenant required to be complied with or performed in connection with the Closing for purposes of Section 6.3(b).

Section 4.15          Excluded Assets.  Each of the parties hereto agrees that the Excluded Assets remain the sole property of the Seller (or its Subsidiaries, other than the Acquired Companies) and Buyers shall promptly take any and all commercially reasonable actions for the transfer and assignment of the Excluded Assets to Seller (or one or more of its Affiliates). At no cost to Seller, at Seller’s request, Guarantor and each of the Acquired Companies, under the direction of Seller, will use their commercially reasonable efforts to collect on behalf of Seller any accounts receivable included within the Excluded Assets. Without in any way limiting the foregoing, subject to Section 1.2(b), any revenue or payment paid or payable with respect to any of the Excluded Assets shall be for the account of Seller and, if received by Purchaser, shall be forthwith paid over to Seller.

Section 4.16          Asset Management Agreements.  At the request of Buyers, Seller has agreed to cooperate with Buyers immediately following the execution date hereof in order to execute the Asset Management Agreements (between Seller (or one or more of its Subsidiaries), on the one hand, and any of the Buyers or their designated Affiliate, on the other hand), in respect of Escondido and Chula Vista, in substantially the forms attached hereto as Exhibit B and Exhibit C, pursuant to which, among other things, Seller grants to such Buyer or its designated Affiliate the right to manage the operation of such facility (in the case of Chula Vista, on the later of July 1, 2009 or Buyer’s approval of the performance of the selective catalytic reduction equipment at the Chula Vista facility, and in the case of Escondido, on July 1, 2009).

Section 4.17          Callidus Early Closing Option.  Any of Buyers, Guarantor or their designated Affiliate shall have the option of acquiring the Callidus SCR Contracts at any time prior to the Closing by making a payment of $231,000 to Seller.

(b)           Seller’s obligation to indemnify the Buyer Indemnitees pursuant to Section 5.2(a) hereof (except for claims based on (i) Taxes, (ii) fraud or (iii) willful misconduct), is subject to the following limitations:

(i)           No indemnification shall be made by Seller unless the aggregate amount of Buyer Damages exceeds $50,000 and, in such event, indemnification shall be made by Seller only to the extent Buyer Damages exceed $50,000;

(ii)          In no event shall Seller’s obligation to indemnify the Buyer Indemnitees exceed Two Million Dollars ($2,000,000);

(iii)         The amount of any Buyer Damages shall be reduced by any amount received by a Buyer Indemnitee with respect thereto under any insurance coverage (less any costs incurred in connection with such recovery, including without limitation premium adjustments) or from any other party alleged to be responsible therefor.  The Buyer Indemnitees shall use reasonable efforts to collect any amounts available under such insurance coverage and from such other party alleged to have responsibility.  If a Buyer Indemnitee receives an amount under insurance coverage or from such other party with respect to Buyer Damages at any time subsequent to any indemnification provided by Seller pursuant to this Section 5.2, then such Buyer Indemnitee shall promptly reimburse Seller, as the case may be, for any payment made or expense incurred by Seller in connection with providing such indemnification up to such amount received by the Buyer Indemnitee (less any costs incurred in connection with such recovery, including without limitation premium adjustments);

31

(v)          In no event shall Seller be obligated to indemnify any Buyer Indemnitee or otherwise have any liability with respect to: (A) the operating conditions of the facilities and equipment at Chula Vista and Escondido to the extent such condition existed as of April 22, 2009; (B) the Covenant Agreement Amendment; (C) the NCTB License Modification; or (D) status of the CEC Permits.

(c)           Seller’s obligation to indemnify the Buyer Indemnitees pursuant to Section 5.2(a) hereof with respect to Buyer Damages, shall not include an obligation to indemnify the Buyer Indemnities in respect of any Taxes, interest, or penalties with respect to the sale or export of the Membership Interests or Purchased Assets for use outside the United States.

(d)           Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the Seller hereby covenants and agrees to retain and not to distribute or otherwise use or dispose of an aggregate of $2,000,000 of cash assets after the Closing until the end of the Survival Period.

Section 5.3            Buyers’ and Guarantor’s Agreement to Indemnify.

(a)           Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, the Buyers and Guarantor shall, jointly and severally, indemnify and hold harmless Seller and its Representatives and their successors and assigns (collectively, the “Seller Indemnitees”) from and against all liabilities, demands, claims, actions or causes of action, assessments, losses, damages, costs and expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses), whether or not involving a third party claim, asserted against or incurred by any Seller Indemnitee (collectively, “Seller Damages”) as a result of or arising out of a breach of any covenant, undertaking, representation or warranty contained in this Agreement by either Buyer.

(b)           The Buyers’ and Guarantor’s obligation to indemnify the Seller Indemnitees pursuant to Section 5.3(a) hereof (except for claims based on (i) Taxes, (ii) fraud or (iii) willful misconduct), is subject to the following limitations:

(i)           No indemnification shall be made by either Buyer and Guarantor unless the aggregate amount of Seller Damages exceeds Fifty Thousand Dollars ($50,000) and, in such event, indemnification shall be made by the Buyers and Guarantor only to the extent the aggregate amount of Seller Damages exceed $50,000;

(ii)          In no event shall the Buyers’ and Guarantor’s obligation to indemnify the Seller Indemnitees exceed Two Million Dollars ($2,000,000), which in the event the Closing does not occur, shall be satisfied first from the Deposit;

(iii)         The amount of any Seller Damages shall be reduced by any amount received by a Seller Indemnitee with respect thereto under any insurance coverage (less any costs incurred in connection with such recovery, including without limitation premium adjustments) or from any other party alleged to be responsible therefor. The Seller Indemnitees shall use reasonable efforts to collect any amounts available under such insurance coverage and from such other party alleged to have responsibility. If a Seller Indemnitee receives any amount under insurance coverage or from such other party with respect to Seller Damages at any time subsequent to any indemnification provided by the Buyers or Guarantor pursuant to this Section 5.3, then such Seller Indemnitee shall promptly reimburse the Buyers, as the case may be, for any payment made or expense incurred by the Buyers or Guarantor in connection with providing such indemnification up to such amount received by the Seller Indemnitee (less any costs incurred in connection with such recovery, including without limitation premium adjustments); and

32

(iv)         The Buyers and Guarantor shall be obligated to indemnify the Seller Indemnitees only for those claims giving rise to Seller Damages as to which the Seller Indemnitees have given the Buyers written notice thereof prior to the end of the Survival Period. Any written notice delivered by a Seller Indemnitee to the Buyers with respect to Seller Damages shall set forth with as much specificity as is reasonably practicable the basis of the claim for Seller Damages and, to the extent reasonably practicable, a reasonable estimate of the amount thereof.

Section 5.4            Third Party Indemnification.  The obligations of Seller to indemnify the Buyer Indemnitees under Section 5.2 hereof with respect to Buyer Damages and the obligations of the Buyers and Guarantor to indemnify the Seller Indemnitees under Section 5.3 hereof with respect to Seller Damages, in either case resulting from the assertion of liability by third parties (each, as the case may be, a “Third Party Claim”), will be subject to the following terms and conditions:

(a)           Any party against whom any Third Party Claim is asserted will give the indemnifying Party written notice of such Third Party Claim promptly after learning of such Third Party Claim, and the indemnifying Party may, at its option, undertake the defense thereof by counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified Party. Failure to give prompt notice of a Third Party Claim hereunder shall not affect the indemnifying Party obligations under this Agreement, except to the extent the indemnifying Party is materially prejudiced by such failure to give prompt notice. If the indemnifying Party, within thirty (30) days after notice of such Third Party Claim, or such shorter period as is reasonably required, fails to assume the defense of such Third Party Claim, or if the indemnifying Party at any time thereafter shall fail to diligently maintain and prosecute such defense, the Buyer Indemnitee or the Seller Indemnitee, as the case may be, against whom such Third Party Claim has been made will (upon further notice to the indemnifying Party) have the right to undertake the defense, compromise or settlement of such Third Party Claim on behalf of and for the account and risk, and at the expense, of the indemnifying Party, subject to the right of the indemnifying Party to assume the defense of such Third Party Claim at any time prior to settlement, compromise or final determination thereof.

(b)           Anything in this Section 5.4 to the contrary notwithstanding, the indemnifying Party shall not enter into any settlement or compromise of any action, suit or proceeding or consent to the entry of any judgment (i) which does not include as an unconditional term thereof the delivery by the claimant or plaintiff to the Seller Indemnitee or the Buyer Indemnitee, as the case may be, of a written release from all liability in respect of such action, suit or proceeding or (ii) for other than monetary damages to be borne by the indemnifying Party, without the prior written consent of the Seller Indemnitee or the Buyer Indemnitee, as the case may be, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld.

(c)           The indemnifying Party and the indemnified Party shall cooperate fully in all aspects of any investigation, defense, pretrial activities, trial, compromise, settlement or discharge of any claim in respect of which indemnity is sought, including, but not limited to, by providing the other Party with reasonable access to employees and officers (including as witnesses) and other information.

33

(d)           Notwithstanding the foregoing, if an indemnified Party determines in good faith that there is a reasonable probability that a Third Party Claim may adversely affect it or its Affiliates other than as a result of monetary damages for which it would be entitled to indemnification under this Agreement, the indemnified Party may, by notice to the indemnifying Party, assume the exclusive right to defend, compromise or settle such Third Party Claim, but the indemnifying Party will not be bound by any determination of any Third Party Claim so defended for the purposes of this Agreement or any compromise or settlement effected without its consent (which may not be unreasonably withheld).

Section 5.5            Extent of Indemnification.  TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, AN INDEMNIFIED PARTY SHALL BE ENTITLED TO INDEMNIFICATION HEREUNDER IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE TERMS HEREOF, REGARDLESS OF WHETHER THE INDEMNIFIABLE LOSS GIVING RISE TO ANY SUCH INDEMNIFICATION OBLIGATION IS THE RESULT OF THE SOLE, GROSS, ACTIVE, PASSIVE, CONCURRENT OR COMPARATIVE NEGLIGENCE, STRICT LIABILITY OR OTHER FAULT OR VIOLATION OF ANY LAW OF OR BY ANY SUCH INDEMNIFIED PARTY. THE PARTIES AGREE THAT THIS STATEMENT CONSTITUTES A CONSPICUOUS LEGEND.

Section 5.6            Exclusive Remedy.  EXCEPT WITH RESPECT TO TAXES, FRAUD AND WILLFUL MISCONDUCT AND AS OTHERWISE PROVIDED BY THIS AGREEMENT, THE INDEMNITY PROVISIONS OF THIS ARTICLE V SHALL BE THE SOLE AND EXCLUSIVE REMEDY OF EACH PARTY WITH RESPECT TO ANY CLAIMS ARISING FROM THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY. EXCEPT AS OTHERWISE PROVIDED BY THIS AGREEMENT, THE PARTIES ACKNOWLEDGE AND AGREE THAT THE REMEDIES SET FORTH IN THIS AGREEMENT, INCLUDING THE DEDUCTIBLES, LIABILITY LIMITS, SURVIVAL PERIOD, DISCLAIMERS AND LIMITATIONS ON REMEDIES, ARE INTENDED TO BE, AND SHALL BE, THE EXCLUSIVE REMEDIES WITH RESPECT TO ANY ASPECT OF THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED BY THIS AGREEMENT (EXCEPT WITH RESPECT TO FRAUD, TAXES OR WILLFUL MISCONDUCT). EXCEPT WITH RESPECT TO TAXES, FRAUD AND WILLFUL MISCONDUCT AND AS OTHERWISE PROVIDED BY THIS AGREEMENT, EACH PARTY HEREBY RELEASES, WAIVES AND DISCHARGES, AND COVENANTS NOT TO SUE WITH RESPECT TO, ANY CAUSE OF ACTION OR CLAIM NOT EXPRESSLY PROVIDED FOR IN THIS AGREEMENT INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, CLAIMS UNDER STATE OR FEDERAL SECURITIES LAWS OR CLAIMS UNDER ENVIRONMENTAL LAWS, AVAILABLE AT COMMON LAW OR BY STATUTE.

Section 5.7            No Setoff.  Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, none of the parties shall have any right to setoff any Buyer Damages or Seller Damages, respectively, against any payments to be made by either of them pursuant to this Agreement or otherwise.

34

Section 5.8            Insurance.  The indemnifying Party shall be subrogated to the rights of the indemnified Party in respect of any insurance relating to damages to the extent of any indemnification payments made hereunder.

Section 5.9            No Duplication.  Any liability for indemnification hereunder shall be determined without duplication of recovery by reason of the state of facts giving rise to such liability constituting a breach of more than one representation, warranty, covenant or agreement.

(c)           Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 3.6 or anything to the contrary set forth in Section 6.1, if (i) the Closing does not occur, (ii) the Purchase Agreement is terminated, (iii) in connection with such termination Buyer shall be entitled to a return of the Deposit under the terms of the Purchase Agreement and (iv) there has been an event of loss with respect to the Project such that there shall be proceeds under the Existing Project Insurance constituting all, or substantially all, of the replacement value of the Project (a “Total Loss Event”), then for purposes of calculating any termination payment payable to Buyer or Seller under this Section 3.6, (x) 50% of the amount of such insurance proceeds paid under the Existing Project Insurance with respect to such Total Loss Event shall be payable by the Seller Parties to Buyer as an additional termination payment hereunder (a “Total Loss Payment”), and (y) the amount of such insurance proceeds payable under the Existing Project Insurance and any amounts relating to the cost of repair or replacement cost of the Project shall not be included in the calculation of EBITDA under Section 3.1.

(e)           For purposes of the calculation of any termination payment under this Section 3.6, each Party shall provide to the other Party such additional details pertaining to the calculation of EBITDA or a Total Loss Payment that is in its possession as is reasonably requested by the other Party.  Within fourteen (14) days following the termination of the Purchase Agreement, Seller shall make an initial calculation of the Seller Termination Payment, Buyer Termination Payment and/or Total Loss Payment and give written notice of such initial calculations to Buyer.  Each of the Seller Termination Payment, Buyer Termination Payment and/or Total Loss Payment, as applicable, shall be payable within thirty (30) days of the receipt by the Party required to make such payment of the invoice setting forth such Seller Termination Payment, Buyer Termination Payment  and/or Total Loss Payment or, if later, within ten (10) days of receipt of the insurance proceeds included within such payment from the Party entitled to the same as set forth hereunder.

3.7           Calculation of EBITDA.

(a)           At least seven (7) days prior, but no earlier than fourteen (14) days prior,  to the date expected to be the Closing Date as agreed between the Parties, Seller shall give Buyer written notice of (i) such expected date of the Closing and (ii) the amount, reasonably estimated by Seller, acting in good faith, of the EBITDA for the estimated Transition Services Term and the applicable EBITDA Positive Amount or EBITDA Negative Amount, as the case may be, based on the Closing Date occurring on the expected Closing date, together with such information regarding the calculation of such estimated amounts as Buyer may reasonably request.  If Buyer identifies any error in any of the estimates used or computations undertaken by Seller, Buyer will promptly (and in any event within three (3) days after the receipt of such written notice from Seller) notify Seller of such error in writing with specificity  (an “Error Notice”).  If Buyer does not give such an Error Notice, the estimated amount of the EBITDA and the applicable EBITDA Positive Amount or EBITDA Negative Amount notified by Seller under this Section 3.7 shall be the EBITDA and applicable EBITDA Positive Amount or EBITDA Negative Amount, as the case may be, to be applicable under the Purchase Agreement for purposes of the calculation of the Purchase Price payable by Buyer at the Closing Date.

(b)           If Buyer gives such Error Notice, the parties will promptly meet and review the estimates and computations and, if necessary, Seller will recalculate the EBITDA and applicable EBITDA Positive Amount or EBITDA Negative Amount, as the case may be, to correct any error so identified and agreed by Seller, and provide such recalculated amounts to Buyer for Buyer’s review pursuant to this Section 3.7.  If the parties are not in agreement as to the estimates and computation of  EBITDA and applicable EBITDA Positive Amount or EBITDA Negative Amount, as the case may be, at the time all other conditions to Closing have been satisfied or waived, the EBITDA and applicable EBITDA Positive Amount or EBITDA Negative Amount, as the case may be, under the Purchase Agreement shall be the last amounts estimated by Seller pursuant to this Section 3.7 (the “Closing EBITDA Amounts”); provided that, in the event that the amount in dispute between the parties with respect to the Closing EBITDA Amounts is greater than or equal to $100,000, then the parties agree that, as part of the Closing procedures under the Purchase Agreement, an amount equal to such disputed amount shall be deducted from the Purchase Price and deposited into the Escrow Account, subject to release from the Escrow Account only upon the Joint Written Direction of Seller and Wellhead.

10

(c)           If the Closing shall be delayed for any reason for more than five (5) Business Days after the expected Closing Date assumed in the notices delivered by Seller under this Section 3.7, such notices shall become void and Seller shall send another written notice to Buyer for the newly expected Closing Date in accordance with this Section 3.7.

(d)           If the Purchase Price is determined on the basis of disputed Closing EBITDA Amounts under this Section 3.7, after the Closing Date, the parties will continue to work in good faith to resolve any disagreement among the parties with respect to the Closing EBITDA Amounts, as the case may be, utilized to determine the Purchase Price and to determine any mutually agreed revised amounts within thirty (30) days following the Closing Date (the “EBITDA Adjustment Period”), taking into account all financial information and reports received or updated during that period with respect to the EBITDA calculations (it being understood that during the EBITDA Adjustment Period, Buyer and Seller may revise their respective estimates used for the Closing EBITDA Amounts).   If (i) the parties agree on a revised EBITDA and EBITDA Positive Amount or EBITDA Negative Amount, as the case may be, during the EBITDA Adjustment Period or (ii) the parties do not so agree during the EBITDA Adjustment Period and there is a final determination of such dispute in accordance with this Agreement of the applicable EBITDA and EBITDA Positive Amount or EBITDA Negative Amount, as the case may be (in the case of a resolution under either of clause (i) and (ii), the “Final EBITDA Amounts”), the Purchase Price amount under the Purchase Agreement shall be recalculated using such Final EBITDA Amounts (the “Revised Purchase Price Amount”) and (1) if the Revised Purchase Price Amount is greater than the amount of the Purchase Price paid under the Purchase Agreement, Buyer shall pay to Seller such differential and (2) if the Revised Purchase Price Amount is less than the amount of the Purchase Price paid under the Purchase Agreement, Seller shall pay to Buyer such differential, in each case together with interest thereon at a rate equal to the prime rate as published by Bank of America from the Closing Date until the date such payment is made, in immediately available finds by wire transfer to the accounts designated in writing by the Party entitled to such payment.  If a Final EBITDA Amounts is determined pursuant to clause (ii) above, the Party determined pursuant to such final determination to be most in error in its proposed applicable Final Adjusted Amounts shall bear all of the costs of the proceedings leading to such final determination, including the reasonable legal costs and expenses of the other Party with respect thereto, and shall reimburse the other Party for any such amounts incurred by the other Party at the time of making the payment referenced in the immediately preceding sentence.

(e)           Nothing in this Section 3.7 shall be construed to modify or affect the effectiveness or timing of a Closing under the Purchase Agreement on the basis of disputed Closing EBITDA Amounts.

3.8           Penalties.  If any penalties, fines, special charges or similar items are incurred under the Resource Adequacy Contracts in respect of the Project, any Seller Permit in respect of the Project or applicable Law as a result of actions taken byBuyer in connection with the Remediation Services performed by Buyer or Guarantor or their Representatives, Buyer shall, subject to Section 7.3, immediately pay over to Seller the amount of such item or, at the election of Seller, Seller shall have the right of offset for the amount of such item against the Deposit and Seller and Buyer shall, or shall cause Wellhead to, promptly issue a Joint Written Direction to the Escrow Agent to cause the Escrow Agent to immediately pay overto the Seller such item.  In the event of any offset from the Deposit, the amount payable under Section 1.3(a)(iii) of the Purchase Agreement shall be increased by the amount of such offset.

3.6           Termination Consideration.  (a)  In the event that (i) the Closing does not occur, (ii) the Purchase Agreement is terminated, (iii) in connection with such termination Buyer shall be entitled to a return of the Deposit under the terms of the Purchase Agreement and (iv) there shall be a Positive EBITDA Amount for the Transition Services Term so that a decrease to the Purchase Price would have been in effect under Section 3.1 if the Closing had occurred, then, in addition to the reimbursement of the Buyer Operating Expenses pursuant to Section 3.4, the Seller Parties shall pay or cause to be paid to Buyer a termination payment under this Agreement in an amount equal to the Positive EBITDA Amount that would have been applied as a decrease to the Purchase Price under Section 3.1 (the “Seller Termination Payment”).

(c)           Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 3.6 or anything to the contrary set forth in Section 6.1, if (i) the Closing does not occur, (ii) the Purchase Agreement is terminated, (iii) in connection with such termination Buyer shall be entitled to a return of the Deposit under the terms of the Purchase Agreement and (iv) there has been an event of loss with respect to the Project such that there shall be proceeds under the Existing Project Insurance constituting all, or substantially all, of the replacement value of the Project (a “Total Loss Event”), then for purposes of calculating any termination payment payable to Buyer or Seller under this Section 3.6, (x) 50% of the amount of such insurance proceeds paid under the Existing Project Insurance with respect to such Total Loss Event shall be payable by the Seller Parties to Buyer as an additional termination payment hereunder (a “Total Loss Payment”), and (y) the amount of such insurance proceeds payable under the Existing Project Insurance and any amounts relating to the cost of repair or replacement cost of the Project shall not be included in the calculation of EBITDA under Section 3.1.

3.7           Calculation of EBITDA.

(a)           At least seven (7) days prior, but no earlier than fourteen (14) days prior,  to the date expected to be the Closing Date as agreed between the Parties, Seller shall give Buyer written notice of (i) such expected date of the Closing and (ii) the amount, reasonably estimated by Seller, acting in good faith, of the EBITDA for the estimated Transition Services Term and the applicable EBITDA Positive Amount or EBITDA Negative Amount, as the case may be, based on the Closing Date occurring on the expected Closing date, together with such information regarding the calculation of such estimated amounts as Buyer may reasonably request.  If Buyer identifies any error in any of the estimates used or computations undertaken by Seller, Buyer will promptly (and in any event within three (3) days after the receipt of such written notice from Seller) notify Seller of such error in writing with specificity  (an “Error Notice”).  If Buyer does not give such an Error Notice, the estimated amount of the EBITDA and the applicable EBITDA Positive Amount or EBITDA Negative Amount notified by Seller under this Section 3.7 shall be the EBITDA and applicable EBITDA Positive Amount or EBITDA Negative Amount, as the case may be, to be applicable under the Purchase Agreement for purposes of the calculation of the Purchase Price payable by Buyer at the Closing Date.

(b)           If Buyer gives such Error Notice, the parties will promptly meet and review the estimates and computations and, if necessary, Seller will recalculate the EBITDA and applicable EBITDA Positive Amount or EBITDA Negative Amount, as the case may be, to correct any error so identified and agreed by Seller, and provide such recalculated amounts to Buyer for Buyer’s review pursuant to this Section 3.7.  If the parties are not in agreement as to the estimates and computation of  EBITDA and applicable EBITDA Positive Amount or EBITDA Negative Amount, as the case may be, at the time all other conditions to Closing have been satisfied or waived, the EBITDA and applicable EBITDA Positive Amount or EBITDA Negative Amount, as the case may be, under the Purchase Agreement shall be the last amounts estimated by Seller pursuant to this Section 3.7 (the “Closing EBITDA Amounts”); provided that, in the event that the amount in dispute between the parties with respect to the Closing EBITDA Amounts is greater than or equal to $100,000, then the parties agree that, as part of the Closing procedures under the Purchase Agreement, an amount equal to such disputed amount shall be deducted from the Purchase Price and deposited into the Escrow Account, subject to release from the Escrow Account only upon the Joint Written Direction of Seller and Wellhead.

10

(c)           If the Closing shall be delayed for any reason for more than five (5) Business Days after the expected Closing Date assumed in the notices delivered by Seller under this Section 3.7, such notices shall become void and Seller shall send another written notice to Buyer for the newly expected Closing Date in accordance with this Section 3.7.

(d)           If the Purchase Price is determined on the basis of disputed Closing EBITDA Amounts under this Section 3.7, after the Closing Date, the parties will continue to work in good faith to resolve any disagreement among the parties with respect to the Closing EBITDA Amounts, as the case may be, utilized to determine the Purchase Price and to determine any mutually agreed revised amounts within thirty (30) days following the Closing Date (the “EBITDA Adjustment Period”), taking into account all financial information and reports received or updated during that period with respect to the EBITDA calculations (it being understood that during the EBITDA Adjustment Period, Buyer and Seller may revise their respective estimates used for the Closing EBITDA Amounts).   If (i) the parties agree on a revised EBITDA and EBITDA Positive Amount or EBITDA Negative Amount, as the case may be, during the EBITDA Adjustment Period or (ii) the parties do not so agree during the EBITDA Adjustment Period and there is a final determination of such dispute in accordance with this Agreement of the applicable EBITDA and EBITDA Positive Amount or EBITDA Negative Amount, as the case may be (in the case of a resolution under either of clause (i) and (ii), the “Final EBITDA Amounts”), the Purchase Price amount under the Purchase Agreement shall be recalculated using such Final EBITDA Amounts (the “Revised Purchase Price Amount”) and (1) if the Revised Purchase Price Amount is greater than the amount of the Purchase Price paid under the Purchase Agreement, Buyer shall pay to Seller such differential and (2) if the Revised Purchase Price Amount is less than the amount of the Purchase Price paid under the Purchase Agreement, Seller shall pay to Buyer such differential, in each case together with interest thereon at a rate equal to the prime rate as published by Bank of America from the Closing Date until the date such payment is made, in immediately available finds by wire transfer to the accounts designated in writing by the Party entitled to such payment.  If a Final EBITDA Amounts is determined pursuant to clause (ii) above, the Party determined pursuant to such final determination to be most in error in its proposed applicable Final Adjusted Amounts shall bear all of the costs of the proceedings leading to such final determination, including the reasonable legal costs and expenses of the other Party with respect thereto, and shall reimburse the other Party for any such amounts incurred by the other Party at the time of making the payment referenced in the immediately preceding sentence.

(e)           Nothing in this Section 3.7 shall be construed to modify or affect the effectiveness or timing of a Closing under the Purchase Agreement on the basis of disputed Closing EBITDA Amounts.

3.8           Penalties.  If any penalties, fines, special charges or similar items are incurred under the Resource Adequacy Contracts in respect of the Project, any Seller Permit in respect of the Project or applicable Law as a result of actions taken byBuyer in connection with the Remediation Services performed by Buyer or Guarantor or their Representatives, Buyer shall, subject to Section 7.3, immediately pay over to Seller the amount of such item or, at the election of Seller, Seller shall have the right of offset for the amount of such item against the Deposit and Seller and Buyer shall, or shall cause Wellhead to, promptly issue a Joint Written Direction to the Escrow Agent to cause the Escrow Agent to immediately pay overto the Seller such item.  In the event of any offset from the Deposit, the amount payable under Section 1.3(a)(iii) of the Purchase Agreement shall be increased by the amount of such offset.

MMC ENERGY, INC.

26 Broadway

Suite 960

New York, NY 10004

(212) 977-0900

MMC ENERGY, INC. ANNOUNCES SALE OF OPERATIONS

New York- May 27, 2009-MMC Energy, Inc. (NASDAQ: MMCE) announced today that on May 21, 2009 it signed a definitive purchase agreement to sell its Chula Vista and Escondido electric generating facilities and certain other assets for $4,865,500 to affiliates of Wellhead Electric Company, Inc.   The sale represents the conclusion of a process to sell substantially all of the Company’s remaining operating assets, except for its two GE LM6000 PC Sprint turbines, acquired at a cost of $31 million and also currently held for sale.  The sale of two gas compressors to Wellhead announced in March 2009 was originally included in the process and in Wellhead’s initial bid for these assets, but closed sooner on mutual agreement of the parties.

The consummation of the sale remains subject to certain customary closing conditions, including approvals by a majority of the Company’s stockholders, the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission and various additional regulatory approvals.  The asset sales are key steps in a contemplated liquidation of the Company. Shareholder approval will also be required for the plan of liquidation.

Wellhead will have access to the Chula Vista and Escondido facilities prior to closing to effect any equipment repairs they desire to be made, and the closing of the sale will be subject to the earlier of Wellhead’s full assumption of asset management at both facilities, as described below, or August 31, 2009, assuming all other remaining closing conditions have been satisfied at such time.  The repairs will be performed at Wellhead’s sole expense, except that the Company may reimburse up to $500,000 of such expenditures in certain circumstances under which a deal does not close and Wellhead is entitled to a return of a $2 million deposit held in escrow pending completion of the sale. The deposit is refundable if the Company does not meet its closing obligations or accepts a superior offer from a third party.

At any time prior to closing, Wellhead, at its sole discretion, may opt to take over day to day asset management responsibility for the Chula Vista and Escondido facilities.  As compensation for the asset management services, Wellhead is entitled to a 50% share in the Company’s EBITDA (as defined in the purchase agreement), with a further option to increase their share to 100% if Wellhead assumes full operating responsibility and a greater share of operating risk.  If Wellhead should elect to increase their EBITDA share to 100%, the closing of the asset sale will take place immediately following such election if the Company has satisfied all other closing conditions.  The EBITDA sharing will be as accomplished via a purchase price adjustment at the closing if the sale closes, however, the Company will also be required to compensate the EBITDA share in cash should thet sale not close in circumstances requiring a refund to Wellhead of the deposit.

“While we are disappointed in not seeing our original strategy through, the financial and energy markets of the past 12 months have made such strategy a virtual impossibility in the near term. Further, it is too expensive for us to operate only our existing peaking plants in our current public platform,” noted Michael Hamilton, CEO.   “The announcement of the asset sale follows an extensive review of a range of strategic alternatives for the Company, including our continuing as an independent entity and exploring mergers and acquisitions. We believe that the sale of these assets to Wellhead maximizes stockholder value and increases the probability that we will be able to distribute liquidation proceeds to our stockholders as soon as practical. In that light, the sale to Wellhead is a critical path item, and after months of working with two separate investment banks to get to this point, we feel we have accepted the best offer on the table.  We will also remain diligent in seeking the best price for our remaining turbines to complete the liquidation process as soon as practical.”

In anticipation of the sale, the Company has marked the assets sold to the agreed sale price as of March 31, 2009 and accordingly, does not anticipate a material gain or loss upon closing the sale transaction.

The Company’s Chula Vista and Escondido Upgrade Projects have been on hold pending the receipt of long-term contracts for peaking power, and in the case of Chula Vista, a permit from the California Energy Commission, whose Preliminary Decision was against the Company.  The Company believes that the disposition of the facilities and equipment at this time is a better option than incurring substantial costs to store and maintain the equipment and continue to operate as a public company until construction commences, if at all.

The Company previously announced the sale of a GE LM6000 turbine to Wellhead in November 2008 and the sale of a GE LM-2500 and related equipment from its Mid-Sun facility to Pro Energy in February 2009.
