Seller shall provide Buyer with a written notice of such revised Third Development Period Maximum Capacity and Third Development Period Minimum Capacity.

(d) Facility Removal for Failure to Obtain CEC Certification. If any New Facility shall be removed from the Project pursuant to Section 3.12 due to the failure to be CEC Certified and if such failure to be CEC Certified is the result of Seller's fault or negligence (including any failure to submit timely required documentation to the CEC), then, subject to Section 3.7(e), Seller shall pay liquidated damages to Buyer in an amount equal to one thousand two hundred thirty-nine dollars ($1,239) per MW of the Facility Net Capacity of such New Facility per day for each day intervening between the date such New Facility achieved Commercial Operation and the date of removal of such New Facility pursuant to Section 3.12.

Section 3.11 Addition, Removal or Substitution of Facilities.

(a) At any time prior to the end of the Third Development Period, and from time to time, Seller will have the right to designate one or more of the Pre-Defined Additional Facilities as Facilities under this Agreement by providing a notice to Buyer specifying the Pre-Defined Additional Facilities that are being designated as Facilities and containing a document in the form of a revised Appendix B and Appendix I that includes, for the newly designated Facilities, the project details and Milestones applicable to such Facilities and a revised Appendix L that provides for the deletion from such Appendix of such Pre-Defined Additional Facilities that are designated as Facilities. Upon delivery of such notice, the designated Pre-Defined Additional Facilities will become Facilities hereunder without requiring an amendment of this Agreement and the revised Appendix B, Appendix I and Appendix L included within such notice shall be binding upon the Parties as if set forth herein. The designation of Facilities pursuant to this Section 3.11(a) will not result in (a) any change in the First Development Period Minimum Capacity, First Development Period Maximum Capacity, Second Development Period Minimum Capacity, Second Development Period Maximum Capacity, Third Development Period Minimum Capacity, or Third Development Period Maximum Capacity, and (b) a change of the dates of the First Development Period, Second Development Period, and Third Development Period. For the avoidance of doubt, once Pre-Defined Additional Facilities become Facilities hereunder, they will be subject to all of the terms and conditions applicable to Facilities hereunder, including satisfaction of the requirements for Delivery Commencement or Commercial Operation, as applicable, and the process for establishing the Delivery Commencement Date or Commercial Operation Date, as applicable, pursuant to Section 3.5. In addition, at any time prior to the end of the Agreement Term, and from time to time, Seller will have the right to add properties comprising Leases for a Facility if Seller determines that additional properties will improve Seller’s ability to satisfy its obligations hereunder. Seller will send notice to Buyer specifying the properties comprising Leases to be added and containing a document in the form of a revised Appendix B that adds the details associated with the Leases being added. Upon delivery of such notice, the description of the Leases will be updated, as applicable, without requiring an amendment of this Agreement. The addition of properties and Leases pursuant to this Section 3.11(a) will not result in any change in the First Development Period Minimum Capacity, First Development Period Maximum Capacity, Second Development Period Minimum Capacity, Second Development Period Maximum Capacity, Third Development Period Minimum Capacity, or Third Development Period Maximum Capacity. For the avoidance of doubt, the Guaranteed Generation, Maximum Generation, and dates of First Development Period, Second Development Period and Third Development Period will not be revised to reflect any such change in the properties comprising the Leases, and once added properties and associated Leases are included within the Leases for a Facility hereunder, they will be subject to all of the terms and conditions applicable to Leases for Facilities hereunder.

(b) At any time, and from time to time, prior to the end of the Third Development Period, Seller will have the right to substitute one or more of the Pre-Defined Additional Facilities that are not already Facilities hereunder (“Substitution Facilities”) for one or more of the Facilities that are already subject to this Agreement by providing a notice to Buyer specifying the Substitution Facilities that are being designated as Facilities and the Facilities that are to cease being Facilities (“Former Facilities”), and containing a document in the form of a revised Appendix B, Appendix I, and Appendix L that includes (i) a description of the Substitution Facilities and associated Milestones with a level of detail that is reasonably comparable to the detail provided for the Facilities described in Appendix B and associated Milestones in Appendix I as of the Effective Date, (ii) removal of the details associated with the Former Facilities, and (iii) evidence reasonably demonstrating that the aggregate electric generating capacity of the Substitution Facilities (expressed in MW) together with that of the remaining Facilities, net of their parasitic load and transmission and transformation losses to the Points of Delivery, is reasonably expected to result in an aggregate electric generating capacity of the Project (expressed in MW), net of parasitic load and transmission and transformation losses to the Points of Delivery, that is at least one hundred fifty (150) MW. Upon delivery of such notice, subject to compliance with the provisions of Section 3.11(d), the designated Substitution Facilities will become Facilities hereunder and the Former Facilities will cease to be Facilities hereunder, without requiring an amendment of this Agreement and the revised Appendix B, Appendix I and Appendix L included within such notice shall be binding upon the Parties as if set forth herein. The designation of any Substitution Facilities or Former Facilities pursuant to this Section 3.11(b) will not result in (A) any change in the First Development Period Minimum Capacity, First Development Period Maximum Capacity, Second Development Period Minimum Capacity, Second Development Period Maximum Capacity, Third Development Period Minimum Capacity, or Third Development Period Maximum Capacity, and (B) a change of the dates of the First Development Period, Second Development Period, and Third Development Period. Except under the circumstances described in Section 3.12, Section 5.10, Section 5.11, or Section 8.6(a), Seller will not have the right under this Section 3.11(b) to designate as a Former Facility a Facility that has achieved Delivery Commencement or Commercial Operation, as applicable, even if a Substitution Facility is identified for such Facility. For the avoidance of doubt, (I) once Substitution Facilities become Facilities hereunder, they will be subject to all of the terms and conditions applicable to Facilities hereunder, including satisfaction of the requirements for Delivery Commencement or Commercial Operation, as applicable, and the process for establishing the Delivery Commencement Date or Commercial Operation Date, as applicable, pursuant to Section 3.5, and (II) once a Former Facility ceases to be a Facility hereunder it will be released from any and all obligations and restrictions applicable to Facilities hereunder.

(c) At any time, and from time to time, after the earliest of (i) the date that the Project Net Capacity is equal to or greater than one hundred fifty (150) MW, (ii) the end of the Third Development Period with the Project Net Capacity equal to or greater than one hundred thirty five (135) MW, or (iii) December 31, 2024, Seller will have the right to designate as Former Facilities that are to cease being Facilities hereunder all or any portion of the Facilities that have not yet achieved Delivery Commencement or Commercial Operation, as applicable, by sending notice to Buyer specifying the Facilities that are being designated as Former Facilities and containing a document in the form of a revised Appendix B and Appendix I that removes the details associated with such Former Facilities. Upon delivery of such notice, the designated Former Facilities will cease to be Facilities hereunder, and Seller will have no further obligation to Buyer hereunder in respect of such Former Facilities, without requiring an amendment of this Agreement and the revised Appendix B and Appendix I included within such notice shall be binding upon the Parties as if set forth herein. The designation of Former Facilities pursuant to this Section 3.11(c) will not result in (A) any change in the First Development Period Minimum Capacity, First Development Period Maximum Capacity, Second Development Period Minimum Capacity, Second Development Period Maximum Capacity, Third Development Period Minimum Capacity, or Third Development Period Maximum Capacity, and (B) a change of the dates of the First Development Period, Second Development Period, and Third Development Period. Seller will not have the right under this Section 3.11(c) to designate as a Former Facility a Facility that has achieved Delivery Commencement or Commercial Operation, as applicable.

(d) The notices delivered to Buyer pursuant to Section 3.11(b), Section 3.12, Section 5.10, Section 5.11, or Section 8.6(a) with respect to Substitution Facilities shall each provide specifications and related information that reasonably demonstrate that the aggregate electric generating capacity of the Project (expressed in MW), net of parasitic load and transmission and transformation losses to the Points of Delivery, after giving effect to the proposed action of Seller as stated in the applicable notice is reasonably expected to be (x) at least one hundred fifty (150) MW, or (y) at least equivalent to the aggregate electric generating capacity of the Project (expressed in MW), net of parasitic load and transmission and transformation losses to the Points of Delivery, prior to the proposed action of Seller. Within ten (10) Business Days after receipt of such notice and related information, Buyer shall provide notice to Seller either confirming that Seller has met the standard specified in the first sentence of this Section 3.11(d) or specifying in detail the reasons that Buyer believes the proposed action of Seller as stated in the applicable notice is not consistent with the standard specified in the first sentence of this Section 3.11(d). If Buyer fails to respond within such ten (10) Business Day period, it shall be deemed to have agreed that Seller has met the standard specified in the first sentence of this Section 3.11(d). In the event that the Parties do not agree that Seller has met the requirements specified in the first sentence of this Section 3.11(d), then either Party may submit the dispute resolution under Section 14.3.

Section 3.12 Facility Removal for Failure to Obtain CEC Certification. Seller shall remove from the Project any New Facility or New Facilities that have achieved Commercial Operation under this Agreement but have not been CEC Certified by the date that is (a) 180 days following the end of the Third Development Period if such failure to be CEC Certified is the result of Seller’s fault or negligence (including any failure to submit timely required documentation to the CEC) or (b) 360 days following the end of the Third Development Period if such failure to be CEC Certified is not the result of Seller’s fault or negligence. If a New Facility is removed due to a failure to be CEC Certified that is not the result of Seller’s fault or negligence, then Seller shall use its best commercial efforts to remove such Facility and provide a Substitution Facility as provided in Section 3.11(b) and Section 3.11(d) even if such failure and substitution occurs after the end of the Third Development Period. If Seller asserts that the failure to be CEC Certified was not the result of Seller’s fault or negligence, then Seller will provide to Buyer's reasonable satisfaction evidence reasonably demonstrating the basis for Seller’s assertion. Removal of New Facilities from the Project as provided in this Section 3.12 and payments of any applicable liquidated damages under the Agreement are Buyer’s sole and exclusive remedies for a failure of Seller described in this Section 3.12.

Section 3.13 Decommissioning and Other Costs. Buyer shall not be responsible for any cost of decommissioning or demolition of any Facility or any part thereof or any environmental or other liability associated with the decommissioning or demolition without regard to the timing or cause of the decommissioning or demolition.

Section 3.14 Ormat Nevada Letter Agreement. If Ormat Nevada Inc. fails to perform its obligations under the Ormat Nevada Letter Agreement, such failure will be deemed to be a failure of Seller to perform its obligations under this Agreement.

Seller shall not, and shall cause its Affiliates not to, other than to another Affiliate, sell, transfer or otherwise dispose of or create, incur, assume or permit to exist any Lien (other than Permitted Encumbrances) on any portion of any Facility without the prior written consent of Buyer.

Section 5.9 Seller Performance Security.

(a) As a condition to the occurrence of the Effective Date, Seller shall have furnished to Buyer one or more letters of credit issued by Qualified Issuers in the form attached hereto as Appendix E, as such form may be modified with the consent of Buyer (not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) to reflect the reasonable requests of the Qualified Issuer, in the aggregate amount of sixteen million dollars ($16,000,000), which shall secure all of Seller’s obligations to pay liquidated damages under Section 3.7 (“Project Development Security”). From and after the Effective Date, Seller shall provide such Project Development Security until Buyer is required to return the Project Development Security under Section 5.9(c) below. In the event that at any time any draws on the Project Development Security shall reduce the available amount thereof below eight million dollars ($8,000,000), Seller shall promptly, but in no event later than five (5) Business Days, replenish the amount thereof to sixteen million dollars ($16,000,000).

(b) As a condition to the achievement of Delivery Commencement or Commercial Operation, as applicable, for each Facility, Seller shall have furnished to Buyer one or more letters of credit issued by Qualified Issuers, or guarantees from a Qualified Guarantor, or a combination of both, in the form attached hereto as Appendix G, as such form may be modified with the consent of Buyer (not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) to reflect the reasonable requests of the Qualified Guarantor, as applicable, and in the aggregate amount equal to the product of (i) the Facility Net Capacity of such Facility, expressed in MW, and (ii) (A) $475,000 per MW for the first 50 MW of Project Net Capacity, (B) $300,000 per MW for the 51^st to 100^th MW of Project Net Capacity, and (C) $200,000 per MW for Project Net Capacity in excess of 100 MW, which shall guarantee Seller’s obligations under this Agreement following the Delivery Commencement or Commercial Operation Date, as applicable, (“Delivery Term Security”); provided, however, that the total aggregate Delivery Term Security required for all Facilities hereunder shall not exceed forty-eight million seven hundred fifty thousand dollars ($48,750,000) in any event. For example, if the Project Net Capacity is 40 MW with a Delivery Term Security of $19,000,000 (40 MW x $475,000/MW), and then an additional Existing Facility with a net capacity of 15 MW will achieve its Delivery Commencement Date (for a new Project Net Capacity of 55 MW), the additional Delivery Term Security required for such Facility will be equal to $6,250,000 (10 MW x $475,000/MW + 5 MW x $300,000/MW = $4,750,000 + $1,500,000 = $6,250,000); the total Delivery Term Security for the Project Net Capacity of 55 MW in this example is $25,250,000 ($19,000,000 + $6,250,000). From and after the Delivery Commencement Date or Commercial Operation Date, as applicable, for a Facility, Seller shall maintain the corresponding Delivery Term Security until the end of the Agreement Term or until Buyer is required to return the Delivery Term Security to Seller as set forth in Section 5.9(d) below, provided that Seller may, from time to time, replace a guarantee with a letter of credit so long as such replacement letter of credit shall comply with the applicable provisions of this Agreement and the aggregate amount required above is maintained.

(c) Upon the earliest to occur of (i) the Project Net Capacity is increased to an amount that is equal to or greater than the Third Development Period Minimum Capacity, (ii) this Agreement is terminated while the Project Development Security is outstanding, or (iii) December 31, 2024, Seller shall no longer be required to maintain the Project Development Security, and Buyer shall return to Seller the Project Development Security, less any and all amounts drawn by Buyer as permitted under the terms of this Agreement. The Project Development Security (or portion thereof) due to Seller after any and all amounts are drawn by Buyer as permitted under the terms of this Agreement shall be returned to Seller within three (3) Business Days after the first event described in clauses (i) through (iii) of this Section 5.9(c) occurs.

(d) Buyer shall return the unused portion of Delivery Term Security, if any, to Seller promptly after the following have occurred: (i) the Agreement Term has ended, and (ii) all obligations of Seller arising under this Agreement are paid (whether directly or indirectly such as through set-off or netting) or performed in full.

(e) Seller shall notify Buyer of the occurrence of a Downgrade Event within five (5) Business Days after obtaining knowledge of the occurrence of such event. If at any time there shall occur a Downgrade Event, then Buyer may require that Seller replace the Performance Security from the Person that has suffered the Downgrade Event within ten (10) Business Days after notice from Buyer to Seller requesting such replacement Performance Security. In the event that such replacement Performance Security is not so provided by Seller, Buyer shall have the right to demand payment of the full amount of such Performance Security and retain such amount in order to secure Seller’s obligations under this Section 5.9 and other applicable provisions of this Agreement; provided that if and to the extent such amount shall be in excess of the amounts of such obligations of Seller, Buyer shall refund the excess to Seller promptly after all such obligations of Seller under this Agreement shall have been paid or performed.

(f) If any Performance Security is in the form of a letter of credit, then Seller shall either provide, or cause to be provided, a replacement letter of credit (from a Qualified Issuer or Qualified Guarantor, as applicable) in the required amount set forth in this Section 5.9 within ten (10) Business Days after the earlier of the date that Seller becomes aware, or Buyer notifies Seller of the occurrence of any one of the following events:

(i) the failure of the issuer of the letter of credit to renew such letter of credit thirty (30) Business Days prior to the expiration of such letter of credit;

(ii) the failure of the issuer of the letter of credit to immediately honor Buyer’s properly documented request to draw on such letter of credit; or

(iii) the issuer of the letter of credit becomes Bankrupt.

(g) If any Performance Security is in the form of a guarantee, then Seller shall either provide, or cause to be provided, a replacement letter of credit or guarantee (from a Qualified Issuer or Qualified Guarantor, as applicable) in the required amount set forth in this Section 5.9 within ten (10) Business Days after the earlier of the date that Seller becomes aware, or Buyer notifies Seller, of the occurrence of any one of the following events:

(i) the failure of the guarantor to make a payment thereunder immediately following Buyer’s properly documented claim made pursuant to the guarantee in accordance with its terms;

(ii) any representation or warranty made by the guarantor in connection with this Agreement is false or misleading in any material respect when made or when deemed made or repeated;

(iii) the guarantor becomes Bankrupt;

(iv) the guarantee fails to be in full force and effect in accordance with the terms of this Agreement prior to the satisfaction of all obligations of Seller under this Agreement; or

(v) the guarantor repudiates, disaffirms, disclaims, or rejects, in whole or in part, or challenges the validity of, its guarantee.

(h) In the event that a replacement letter of credit is not delivered in accordance with Section 5.9(f) or a replacement guarantee or letter of credit is not delivered in accordance with Section 5.9(g), Buyer shall have the right to demand payment of the full amount of the letter of credit or the guarantee, as applicable, and retain such amount in order to secure Seller’s obligations under this Section 5.9 and other applicable provisions of this Agreement; provided that, if and to the extent such amount shall be in excess of the amounts of such obligations of Seller, Buyer shall refund the excess to Seller promptly after all such obligations of Seller under this Agreement shall have been paid of performed.

(i) Seller shall, from time to time as requested by Buyer, execute, acknowledge, record, register, deliver and file all such notices, statements, instruments, and other documents as may be necessary or advisable to render fully valid, perfected, and enforceable under all Requirements of Law the Performance Security and the rights, Liens, and priorities of Buyer with respect to such Performance Security.

(j) Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, the Performance Security: (i) constitutes security for, but is not a limitation of, Seller’s obligations under this Agreement, and (ii) shall not be Buyer’s exclusive remedy against Seller for Seller’s failure to perform in accordance with this Agreement.

Section 5.10 Lease or Permit No Longer in Effect. If a Facility is unable to operate because one or more of the Leases or Permits fails to be in effect or has terminated, then Seller shall use its best commercial efforts to remove such Facility and provide a Substitution Facility as provided in Section 3.11(b) and Section 3.11(d) even if such failure and substitution occurs after the end of the Third Development Period, provided that if such failure or termination is due to a decision of a Governmental Authority, such decision must be final and nonappealable. In the event that Seller is unable to provide such a Substitution Facility, Seller shall provide notice to Buyer and remove such Facility from the Project and upon delivery of such notice the Project Net Capacity will be reduced by the amount of the Facility Net Capacity associated with such Facility. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Project Net Capacity and the Guaranteed Generation will not be reduced if an inability of a Facility to operate because one or more of the Leases or Permits fails to be in effect shall be due to Seller's fault or negligence. If Seller asserts that the failure of one or more of the Leases or Permits to be in effect was not the result of Seller’s fault or negligence, then Seller will provide to Buyer evidence that is reasonably satisfactory to Buyer demonstrating the basis for Seller’s assertion.

Section 5.11 Project Company Bankruptcy. In the event of a Bankruptcy of a Project Company, Seller shall promptly notify Buyer and Seller shall use its best commercial efforts to provide Substitution Facilities, as provided in Section 3.11(b) and Section 3.11(d) even if such bankruptcy and substitution occurs after the end of the Third Development Period, for the Facility of the bankrupt Project Company. In the event that Seller is not able within thirty (30) days after such Bankruptcy of the Project Company to provide for such Substitution Facilities, Seller shall be obligated to pay to Buyer, as liquidated damages, an amount equal to the product of the Delivery Term Security and the ratio of the Facility Net Capacity of the Facility of the bankrupt Project Company to the Project Net Capacity. To the extent that Seller fails to make payment of such amount within five (5) Business Days after receipt of a demand for payment from Buyer, Buyer shall be entitled to draw from the Delivery Term Security the unpaid amount. Seller shall provide notice to Buyer and remove the Facility of such bankrupt Project Company from the Project and upon delivery of such notice the Project Net Capacity will be reduced by the amount of the Facility Net Capacity associated with such Facility of the bankrupt Project Company. The Parties acknowledge and agree that the damages that Buyer would incur due to a Bankruptcy of a Project Company would be difficult or impossible to predict with certainty, and it is impractical and difficult to assess actual damages in those circumstances and, therefore, the liquidated damages provided for above are a fair and reasonable calculation of such damages. Seller’s provision of Substitution Facilities or the removal of the Facility of the bankrupt Project Company and payment of the liquidated damages as described in this Section 5.11 are Buyer’s sole and exclusive remedies for a Bankruptcy of a Project Company.

ARTICLE VI
PURCHASE AND SALE OF POWER

Section 6.1 Purchases by Buyer.

(a) For all Delivered Energy comprised of Facility Energy from a New Facility prior to its Commercial Operation Date and Delivered Energy comprised of Facility Energy from an Existing Facility after its Prior Commitment Period but prior to its Delivery Commencement Date, Seller shall sell and deliver, and Buyer shall purchase and receive, all such Delivered Energy in accordance with Section 3.10.

(b) For all Delivered Energy comprised of Facility Energy from a New Facility after its Commercial Operation Date and Delivered Energy comprised of Facility Energy from an Existing Facility after its Delivery Commencement Date, Seller shall sell and deliver, and Buyer shall purchase and receive, all such Delivered Energy and all Replacement Energy for the price set forth in Section 2 of Appendix A; provided that, in no event shall Buyer be obligated to purchase or receive Delivered Energy, together with any Replacement Energy, in excess of the Maximum Generation unless Buyer shall by notice given to Seller elect to purchase any such Energy in excess of Maximum Generation.

(c) Notwithstanding Section 6.1(b), during the period of time between the day that is one hundred eighty (180) days following the Commercial Operation Date of a New Facility and the day that is one (1) day following the date upon which Buyer receives evidence that such New Facility is CEC Certified (the “Pre-Certification Period”), Buyer may retain a portion of any payment to be made to Seller hereunder associated with the Delivered Energy from such Facility in an amount equal to the positive difference between (1) the price of the Delivered Energy pursuant to Section 6.1(b), and (2) the average of the on-peak and off-peak Energy prices, weighted by the number of hours in the on-peak and off-peak periods, during the month in which the deliveries occurred for Energy that is not from an eligible renewable energy resource under the RPS Law, as listed in the Intercontinental Exchange Palo Verde Electricity Price Index or its successor index, or any other index mutually agreed by the Parties. Buyer shall release such retained amount, which shall not be calculated with interest of any kind, within forty five (45) days following the receipt of evidence satisfactory to Buyer from Seller that the New Facility is CEC Certified. Within thirty (30) days after any removal of a New Facility under Section 3.12, Seller shall refund to Buyer, for Delivered Energy associated with such New Facility and purchased by Buyer during the first one hundred eighty (180) days following the Commercial Operation Date of such New Facility that has not been CEC Certified at the price set forth in paragraph 2 of Appendix A, the positive difference between (1) the price paid by Buyer and (2) the average of the on-peak and off-peak Energy prices, weighted by the number of hours in the on-peak and off-peak periods, during the month or months in which the deliveries of such Delivered Energy occurred for Energy that is not from an eligible renewable energy resource under the RPS Law, as listed in the Intercontinental Exchange Palo Verde Electricity Price Index or its successor index, or any other index mutually agreed by the Parties. Upon such removal, Seller shall have no obligation to transfer any Environmental Attributes related to the Delivered Energy from the removed New Facility.

Section 6.2 Seller’s Failure. Except as provided in Article IX, and except for Energy provided by the Transmission Provider pursuant to its tariff in connection with the Transmission Services that is both EPS Compliant and RPS Compliant, in no event shall Seller have the right to procure energy from sources other than the Project for sale and delivery pursuant to this Agreement. Unless there shall be a Force Majeure or a Buyer’s failure to perform its obligations under this Agreement, if, on or after the Delivery Commencement Date or Commercial Operation Date, as applicable, for a given Facility, Seller sells any part of any Facility Energy and associated Environmental Attributes required to be delivered by Seller under this Article VI or Article VIII to a third party, Seller shall pay Buyer, within thirty (30) days of Buyer’s written request therefor an amount for each MWh of such deficiency equal to the positive difference, if any, obtained by subtracting the price per MWh that would have been payable by Buyer for the Facility Energy and Environmental Attributes not delivered from the Replacement Price. Buyer shall provide Seller prompt written notice of the Replacement Price together with back-up documentation.

Section 6.3 Buyer’s Failure. Unless excused by Force Majeure or Seller’s failure to perform its obligations under this Agreement, if Buyer fails to receive at the Points of Delivery all or any part of any Facility Energy required to be received by Buyer under this Article VI, Article VIII, or Article IX, Buyer shall pay Seller, within thirty (30) days of Seller’s written request therefor, an amount for each MWh of such deficiency equal to the positive difference, if any, obtained by subtracting the Sales Price from the price per MWh that would have been payable by Buyer for the Energy not received by Buyer. “Sales Price” means the price at which Seller, acting in a commercially reasonable manner, resells the Energy or, absent a resale, the market price for the quantity of Energy not received by the Buyer (adjusted for transmission difference, if any). Seller shall provide Buyer prompt written notice of the Sales Price together with back-up documentation.

Section 6.4 Sales to Third Parties. Seller may sell to Persons other than Buyer (i) any Facility Energy, Replacement Energy, Capacity Rights, and associated Environmental Attributes that Seller is required to deliver to Buyer, but which Buyer does not accept due to Force Majeure declared by Buyer or curtailment pursuant to Section 7.4, or (ii) any Facility Energy in excess of Maximum Generation not purchased by Buyer as provided in Section 6.1. Except as provided above in this Section 6.4, Seller shall not sell or otherwise transfer any Facility Energy, Replacement Energy, Capacity Rights, or associated Environmental Attributes to any Person other than Buyer during the Delivery Term, except for any Facility Energy (excluding any associated RECs or Capacity Rights) that is imbalance energy transferred or sold pursuant to the terms of a Transmission Provider’s tariff. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 6.4, Seller may sell to Persons other than Buyer any Facility Energy, Replacement Energy, Capacity Rights, and associated Environmental Attributes that Seller is unable to deliver to Buyer due to Force Majeure declared by Buyer or Seller.

Section 6.5 Nature of Remedies. The damages that Buyer would incur as a result of Seller’s failure as described in Section 6.2 or that Seller would incur as a result of Buyer’s failure as described in Section 6.3 would be difficult or impossible to predict with certainty, and it is impractical and difficult to assess actual damages in those circumstances, but the liquidated damages set forth in Section 6.2 and Section 6.3 are fair and reasonable calculations of such damages. The remedy set forth in Section 6.2 is in addition to, and not in lieu of, any other right or remedy of Buyer under this Agreement for failure of Seller to sell and deliver Energy and Environmental Attributes as and when required by this Agreement. The remedy set forth in Section 6.3 is in addition to any other right or remedy of Seller for any failure by Buyer to receive Energy as and when required by this Agreement.

ARTICLE VII
TRANSMISSION AND SCHEDULING; TITLE AND RISK OF LOSS

Section 7.1 In General. Seller shall arrange and be responsible for any Transmission Services required to deliver Facility Energy, Shortfall Energy or Replacement Energy to the Point of Delivery, and shall Schedule or arrange for Scheduling services with its Transmission Providers to so deliver the Facility Energy to the Point of Delivery. Buyer shall arrange and be responsible for Transmission Services at and from the Point of Delivery, and shall Schedule or arrange for Scheduling services with its Transmission Providers to receive Facility Energy, Shortfall Energy or Replacement Energy at the Point of Delivery, including, in each case, any services arranged by Seller required to import Energy from facilities owned or controlled by any Transmission Provider on the Seller’s side of each of the Point of Delivery for delivery to the facilities owned or controlled by any Transmission Providers on Buyer’s side of such Point of Delivery. This includes creation by Seller and, as needed, revisions of electronic tags (“e-tags”) associated with such Energy schedules. Seller shall provide additional information as reasonably requested by Buyer on e-tags or as reasonably necessary to facilitate Buyer’s members’ reporting requirements under RPS Law. Each Party shall designate an authorized Scheduler to effectuate the Scheduling of Facility Energy and Replacement Energy.

Section 7.2 Scheduling of Energy. The Authorized Representatives of the Buyer and Seller shall, as soon as reasonably practicable following the Effective Date but before the commencement of the first (1^st) Contract Year, mutually develop forecasting and Scheduling procedures which may be modified, from time to time, by written agreement of both Authorized Representatives in order that the Energy delivered to the Point of Delivery shall be RPS Compliant and EPS Compliant as provided under Section 8.6. Such procedures shall otherwise comply with all applicable requirements, including those of the Transmission Providers, CAISO, WECC, and any balancing authority involved in the scheduling of energy under this Agreement. This may include, but not be limited to, dynamic adjustments to e-tags in order to reflect the previous hour’s metered Energy output. The procedures shall be developed so as to maximize the amount of Energy that is RPS Compliant and EPS Compliant that may be delivered by Seller under this Agreement. The Authorized Representatives shall promptly cooperate with respect to any reasonably necessary and appropriate modifications to such forecasting or scheduling procedures. The Parties acknowledge that, because Scheduling takes place in advance of generation, there may be deviations between the amount of Energy generated by a Facility and the amount of Energy Scheduled by Buyer and Seller for delivery at the Point of Delivery. To the extent that such deviations occur in the ordinary course of Scheduling under the agreed upon procedures and, as a result, Energy that is not RPS Compliant and EPS Compliant is delivered pursuant to the Transmission Provider’s tariff to Buyer at the Point of Delivery, Buyer shall accept such Energy and pay Seller the average of the on-peak and off-peak Energy prices, weighted by the number of hours in the on-peak and off-peak periods, during the month in which the deviations occurred for Energy that is not from a eligible renewable energy resource under the RPS Law, as listed in the Intercontinental Exchange Palo Verde Electricity Price Index or its successor index, or any other index mutually agreed by the Parties.

(a) Seller or Seller’s designee shall be responsible for Scheduling the forecast of Delivered Energy and Replacement Energy to the Point of Delivery during the Delivery Term in accordance with the Scheduling procedures agreed upon by the Parties, which may be updated from time to time. Seller shall submit schedules, and any updates to such schedules, to Buyer or Buyer’s Agent based on the most current forecast of Delivered Energy and Replacement Energy. Buyer or Buyer’s designee shall be responsible for Scheduling the forecast of Delivered Energy and Replacement Energy at and from the Point of Delivery during the Delivery Term in accordance with the Scheduling procedures agreed upon by the Parties, which may be updated from time to time. Buyer shall also fulfill the contractual, metering, and interconnection requirements so as to be able to accept Delivered Energy and Replacement Energy at the Points of Delivery. All Scheduling shall be performed in accordance with the applicable NERC and WECC operating policies, criteria, and any other applicable guidelines. Seller or its Affiliates shall also fulfill the contractual, metering, and interconnection requirements so as to be able to deliver Delivered Energy and Replacement Energy to the Points of Delivery.

(b) At least forty-five (45) days before the first anticipated Delivery Commencement Date or Commercial Operation Date, whichever is earlier, and no later than forty-five (45) days before the beginning of each Contract Year, Seller or Seller’s designee shall provide, or cause to be provided, a non-binding forecast of each month’s average-day deliveries of Delivered Energy and Replacement Energy, by hour, for the following eighteen (18) months.

(c) At least ten (10) days before the first anticipated Delivery Commencement Date or Commercial Operation Date, whichever is earlier, and no later than ten (10) Business Days before the beginning of each month during the Delivery Term, Seller or Seller’s designee shall provide, or cause to be provided, a non-binding forecast of each day’s average deliveries of Delivered Energy and Replacement Energy, by hour, for the following month.

(d) By 4:30 a.m. on the Business Day immediately preceding each day of delivery of Delivered Energy during the Delivery Term, Seller or Seller’s designee shall cause the Seller’s Scheduler to provide Buyer or Buyer’s Agent with a copy of a non-binding hourly forecast of deliveries of Delivered Energy and Replacement Energy for each hour of the immediately succeeding day. A forecast provided a day prior to any non-Business Day shall include forecasts for the immediate day, each succeeding non-Business Day and the next Business Day. Seller shall provide Buyer or Buyer’s Agent with a copy of any updates to such forecast indicating a change in forecasted Delivered Energy and Replacement Energy from the then current forecast.

(e) By 12:00 p.m. on the normal Business Day prior to each pre-scheduling day as identified in the WECC pre-scheduling calendar, Seller shall provide Buyer, Buyer’s real time operators, and Buyer’s Scheduler, via email, day-ahead pre-schedules for each of the succeeding twenty-four (24) hours in the form of an excel spreadsheet. In order to allow Buyer to make schedule changes in conformity with the California Independent System Operator Scheduling deadline, Seller shall notify Buyer or Buyer’s Agent via telephone of any hourly changes due to a change in unit availability or an outage no later than one-hundred five (105) minutes prior to the start of such Scheduling hour.

(f) Throughout the Delivery Term, Seller shall provide to Buyer access to the supervisory control and data acquisition (“SCADA”) system of each Facility to the extent necessary to allow Buyer to obtain the following data on a real-time basis:

For each Facility that has achieved Delivery Commencement or Commercial Operation, as applicable, Read-only access to megawatt capacity and any other facility availability information; Read-only access to energy output information collected by the SCADA system for the Facility; provided that if Buyer is unable to access the Facility’s SCADA system, then upon written request from Buyer, Seller shall provide energy output information to Buyer in four (4)-second intervals in the form of a flat file to Buyer through a secure file transport protocol (FTP) system with an e-mail back-up for each flat file submittal; and Read-only access to all electricity, production, and consumption data from the Electric Metering Devices.

(g) The Parties shall facilitate the discussions to pursue a Balancing Authority Operating Agreement (“BAOA”), to be entered into diligently by the appropriate parties, that addresses dynamic scheduling of Energy whereby the Energy from a Facility shall be dynamically scheduled to the Points of Delivery. In the event that the BAOA becomes effective and a Facility uses dynamic scheduling, a SCADA bridge shall be provided between the Facility and the LADWP and any other Buyer participant or participants (with respect to the Facility) SCADA. In such an event, Seller shall bear the cost of installing the SCADA bridge at the Site of the Facility, while Buyer shall bear the cost of installing the LADWP and any other Buyer participant or participants (with respect to the Facility) SCADA. The Parties agree to negotiate in good faith the respective shares of other costs of dynamic scheduling, including, but not limited to, obtaining and retaining communication media between the aforementioned SCADA bridge and the LADWP and any other Buyer participant or participants (with respect to the Facility) SCADA, and providing the dynamic schedule to the Transmission Provider or other entities requiring access to the dynamic schedule.

Section 7.3 Costs. Seller shall be responsible for any costs or charges imposed on or associated with the delivery of Facility Energy to the Points of Delivery, including charges related to control area services, export capability fees, inadvertent energy flows, transmission losses, and the transmission of Facility Energy. Buyer shall be responsible for any costs or charges imposed on or associated with the delivery of Facility Energy at and from the Points of Delivery, including charges related to control area services, inadvertent energy flows, transmission losses, and the transmission of Facility Energy.

Section 7.4 Curtailment Required by Buyer. Seller shall reduce deliveries of Energy for curtailments required by Buyer (a) due to a System Emergency not resulting from the fault or negligence of Buyer, or (b) in the event that Buyer is unable, for any other reason (including as a result of transmission constraints downstream of the applicable Point of Delivery that do not constitute a System Emergency), to utilize Facility Energy; provided that, for any curtailed Energy resulting from a curtailment pursuant to clause (b), unless such curtailment constitutes a Force Majeure claimed by Buyer as provided in Section 14.6, Buyer will pay Seller for such curtailed Energy at the prices set forth in Appendix A as if such curtailed Energy were Delivered Energy. During the Delivery Term, the Parties shall estimate the amount of curtailed Energy for each such curtailment event by multiplying (i) the arithmetic average of the applicable Facility’s metered output rate, in MW, immediately before and after such curtailment event, by (ii) the duration of such curtailment event. The Parties shall use the curtailed Energy estimate for the purpose of determining Seller’s compliance towards Guaranteed Generation, and, solely with respect to curtailed Energy resulting from a curtailment pursuant to clause (b) above, for purposes of calculating any payments due from Buyer to Seller. In the event that Buyer is unable, for any reason (including as a result of transmission constraints downstream of the applicable Point of Delivery that do not constitute a System Emergency), to utilize Facility Energy, Buyer may request, in lieu of requiring Seller to curtail deliveries of Energy, that Seller attempt to remarket such Facility Energy (together with all Environmental Attributes) to third parties by written notice to Seller. Upon any such request, Seller shall use good faith efforts to sell the Facility Energy (together with all Environmental Attributes) to one or more third parties in amounts and for the duration specified by Buyer and, if successful (A) Buyer shall pay Seller at the prices set forth in Appendix A as if such Facility Energy were Delivered Energy and (B) Seller shall remit the proceeds of such third party sales (net of any incremental costs to Seller associated with such sales) to Buyer, whether such proceeds are greater or less than the amounts paid by Buyer to Seller for such Facility Energy. For the avoidance of doubt, Buyer shall be obligated to take delivery of and pay for all Energy that can be delivered by Seller to the Points of Delivery, except that (I) Buyer shall not be obligated to take delivery of and pay for Energy to the extent that such Energy exceeds the Maximum Generation and Buyer has not elected to purchase such Energy as provided in Section 6.1, or in the event of System Emergency, or in the event of a Force Majeure, or (II) Buyer shall not be obligated to take delivery of, but will be obligated to pay for, Energy in the event that Buyer provides a directive to Seller to curtail deliveries of Energy pursuant to clause (b) above, or when Seller actually remarkets Facility Energy as provided above. Facility Energy sold by Seller to third parties as provided for above shall be considered Delivered Energy delivered to Buyer for the purposes of the Guaranteed Generation.

Section 7.5 Curtailment of Seller’s Transmission Services. In the event of the curtailment or other interruption of the Transmission Services utilized pursuant to the Agreement that prevents Seller from delivering Facility Energy to the Primary Point of Delivery, Seller shall, subject to the last sentence of this Section 7.5, upon furnishing notice as soon as practicable to Buyer obtain alternate Transmission Services complying with the requirements of the Agreement utilizing other Transmission System or Systems for delivery of the Facility Energy to such Primary Point of Delivery or the Alternate Points of Delivery during the period of such curtailment or other interruption of such Transmission Services. Seller shall provide Buyer with advance notice of the end of the period of such curtailment or interruption and the restoration of the Transmission Services pursuant to the Agreement for the delivery of the Facility Energy to the Primary Point of Delivery. This Section 7.5 shall (i) not obligate Seller to utilize such alternate Transmission Services or Alternate Points of Delivery, as applicable, and (ii) not preclude Seller from claiming Force Majeure under Section 14.6, unless such alternate Transmission Services or Alternate Points of Delivery, as applicable, are available at costs that do not exceed eight dollars per MWh ($8/MWh), or such alternate Transmission Services shall be available at costs that exceed eight dollars per MWh ($8/MWh) and Buyer agrees to pay the amount of such excess.

Section 7.6 Title; Risk of Loss. As between the Parties, Seller shall be deemed to be in exclusive control (and responsible for any damages or injury caused thereby) of Facility Energy prior to a Point of Delivery, and Buyer shall be deemed to be in exclusive control (and responsible for any damages or injury caused thereby) of Facility Energy at and from such Point of Delivery. Seller shall deliver all Facility Energy, Capacity Rights, and Environmental Attributes to Buyer free and clear of all Liens created by any Person other than Buyer. Title to and risk of loss as to all Facility Energy, Capacity Rights, and Environmental Attributes shall pass from Seller to Buyer at the respective Points of Delivery.

ARTICLE VIII
ENVIRONMENTAL ATTRIBUTES; EPS AND RPS COMPLIANCE

Section 8.1 Transfer of Environmental Attributes. For and in consideration of Buyer entering into this Agreement, and in addition to the agreement by Buyer and Seller to purchase and sell Facility Energy on the terms and conditions set forth herein, Seller shall transfer to Buyer, and Buyer shall receive from Seller, all right, title, and interest in and to all Environmental Attributes, whether now existing or acquired by Seller or that hereafter come into existence or are acquired by Seller during the Delivery Term, for all Facility Energy and Replacement Energy. Environmental Attributes that are in, or that shall come into, existence with respect to Energy generated by a Facility that serves Parasitic Load shall be transferred by Seller to and received by Buyer. Seller agrees to transfer and make such Environmental Attributes available to Buyer immediately to the fullest extent allowed by applicable law upon Seller’s production or acquisition of the Environmental Attributes. Seller shall not assign, transfer, convey, encumber, sell or otherwise dispose of all or any portion of such Environmental Attributes to any Person other than Buyer or attempt to do any of the foregoing with respect to any of the Environmental Attributes. The consideration for the transfer of Environmental Attributes is contained within the relevant prices for Delivered Energy under Articles VI and IX and Appendix A.

Section 8.2 Reporting of Ownership of Environmental Attributes. During the Delivery Term, Seller shall not report to any Person that the Environmental Attributes granted hereunder to Buyer belong to any Person other than Buyer, and Buyer may report under any program that such Environmental Attributes purchased hereunder belong to it.

Section 8.3 Environmental Attributes. Upon Buyer’s request, Seller shall take all reasonable actions and execute all documents or instruments as are reasonable and necessary under applicable law, bilateral arrangements or other voluntary Environmental Attribute programs of any kind, as applicable, to maximize the attribution, accrual, realization, generation, production, recognition and validation of Environmental Attributes throughout the Delivery Term.

Section 8.4 Use of Accounting System to Transfer Environmental Attributes. In furtherance and not in limitation of Section 8.3, Seller shall use WREGIS or any successor system to evidence the transfer of any Environmental Attributes considered RECs under applicable law or any voluntary program (“WREGIS Certificates”) associated with Facility Energy or Replacement Energy in accordance with WREGIS reporting protocols and shall register each Facility with WREGIS. After a Facility is registered with WREGIS, at Buyer’s option, Seller shall (i) transfer WREGIS Certificates using the Forward Certificate Transfer method, as described in WREGIS Operating Rules, from Seller’s WREGIS account to up to three WREGIS accounts, as designated by Buyer, or (ii) retire said WREGIS Certificates into Seller’s WREGIS Retirement sub-account on behalf of Seller’s requirements (if any); provided, however, that Buyer shall initially select to use either option (i) or (ii) thirty (30) days prior to Seller’s delivery of any Facility Energy to the Points of Delivery, and, provided further, if option (i) is selected, Buyer may change to option (ii) at the beginning of any calendar year during the Delivery Term upon thirty (30) days advance written notice. If option (ii) is selected, then Buyer shall provide Seller the number and vintage of MWh of WREGIS Certificates to be retired by providing written notice to Seller not later than thirty (30) days prior to the desired retirement date. Seller shall be responsible for the WREGIS expenses associated with registering each Facility, maintaining its account, WREGIS Certificate issuance fees, and transferring WREGIS Certificates to Buyer, Buyer’s Agent, or any other designees, and Buyer shall be responsible for the WREGIS expenses associated with maintaining its account, or the accounts of its designees, if any, and subsequent transferring or retiring of WREGIS Certificates, or Seller’s fees for the retirement of WREGIS Certificates on behalf of Buyer. Forward Certificate Transfers shall occur monthly based on the certificate creation time-line established by the WREGIS Operating Rules. Seller shall be responsible for, at its expense, validating and disputing data with WREGIS prior to WREGIS Certificate creation each month. In the event that WREGIS is not in operation, or WREGIS does not track Seller’s transfer of WREGIS Certificates to Buyer, Buyer’s Agent, or its designees for purposes of any RECs attributed, accrued, realized, generated, produced, recognized or validated relative to the Energy from a Facility or Replacement Energy, or Buyer chooses not to use WREGIS for any reason, Seller shall document the production and transfer of RECs under this Agreement by delivering to Buyer an attestation for the RECs produced by each Facility, or Replacement Energy, measured in whole MWh, or by such other method as Buyer shall designate. Buyer shall take all necessary actions to facilitate the transfer or retirement of Environmental Attributes as provided above, including accepting any transfer requests made by Seller through WREGIS in accordance with the foregoing.

Section 8.5 Further Assurances. Regardless of whether Seller and Buyer use WREGIS or any successor system, Seller shall document the production of Environmental Attributes by delivering with each invoice to Buyer an attestation for Environmental Attributes (i) produced by each Facility or (ii) included with Replacement Energy for the preceding month. The form of attestation is set forth as Appendix D. At Buyer’s request, the Parties shall execute all such documents and instruments and take such other action in order to effect the transfer of the Environmental Attributes specified in this Agreement to Buyer’s Members and to maximize the attribution, accrual, realization, generation, production, recognition and validation of Environmental Attributes throughout the Delivery Term as Buyer may reasonably request. In the event of the promulgation of a scheme involving Environmental Attributes administered by CAMD, upon notification by CAMD that any transfers contemplated by this Agreement shall not be recorded, the Parties shall promptly cooperate in taking all reasonable actions necessary so that such transfer can be recorded. Each Party shall promptly give the other Party copies of all documents it submits to CAMD to effectuate any transfers.

Section 8.6 RPS and EPS Compliance.

(a) Seller warrants and guarantees that, upon receipt of notice from the CEC that each New Facility and each Existing Facility are CEC Certified, (which in the case of an Existing Facility must occur on or before the Delivery Commencement Date thereof), and at all times thereafter until the expiration or earlier termination of the Agreement Term, such Facility shall be CEC Certified and the Energy that is delivered to Buyer at the Points of Delivery from such Facility (including the Facility Energy and the associated Environmental Attributes) shall be both RPS Compliant and EPS Compliant, provided, however, if and to the extent a Change in Law occurs during such period that causes any Facility, its Facility Energy or the associated Environmental Attributes to no longer be RPS Compliant and EPS Compliant, then Seller shall use its best commercial efforts to remove such Facility and provide a Substitution Facility as provided in Section 3.11(b) and Section 3.11(d) even if such occurrence and substitution occurs after the end of the Third Development Period. In the event that Seller is unable to provide such a Substitution Facility, it shall not be an Event of Default if following the Delivery Commencement or Commercial Operation Date, as applicable, Seller uses commercially reasonable efforts to comply with such Change in Law. In the event of such Change in Law resulting in partial or total loss of compliance, for each MWh of Delivered Energy that is not RPS Compliant and EPS Compliant Buyer shall be entitled to retain from each payment to be made to Seller under Section 6.1 a portion therefrom equal to the positive difference between (i) the price of the Delivered Energy pursuant to Section 6.1 and (ii) the average of the on-peak and off-peak Energy prices, weighted by the number of hours in the on-peak and off-peak periods, during each month that such Facility (including the Facility Energy and the associated Environmental Attributes) is not RPS Compliant and EPS Compliant, as listed in the Intercontinental Exchange Palo Verde Electricity Price Index or its successor index, or any other index mutually agreed by the Parties; provided that in no event during such period shall Buyer be obligated to pay Seller an amount that is greater than the Contract Price for Facility Energy that is not RPS Compliant and EPS Compliant. Buyer shall release such retained amount, which shall be calculated without interest of any kind, within forty-five (45) days following the receipt of evidence from Seller that the applicable Facility has become RPS Compliant and EPS Compliant, but only if and to the extent that the Environmental Attributes generated during the period of non-compliance can be attributed towards Buyer’s requirements under the RPS Law and the requirements of California Public Utilities Code Section 399.16(b)(1). From time to time and at any time requested by Buyer, Seller will furnish to Buyer or Governmental Authorities or other Persons designated by Buyer, all certificates and other documentation reasonably requested by Buyer in order to demonstrate that each Facility, the Facility Energy, and the associated Environmental Attributes are RPS Compliant and EPS Compliant. However, (x) if a Facility remains unable to be RPS Compliant and EPS Compliant as a result of the Change in Law after six (6) months following such Change in Law, then Buyer may provide notice to Seller electing to remove such Facility from the Project, which notice shall contain a document in the form of a revised Appendix B reflecting such removal, and upon delivery of such notice the relevant Facility will be a Former Facility, the Project Net Capacity will be reduced by the amount of the Facility Net Capacity associated with such Facility and the revised Appendix B shall be binding upon the Parties as if set forth herein, and (y) if all of the Facilities remain unable to be RPS Compliant and EPS Compliant as a result of the Change in Law after six (6) months following such Change in Law, then either Party may terminate this Agreement upon thirty (30) days advance written notice to the other; provided that, in either case, such six (6) month period shall be extended for a period that does not exceed an additional six (6) months if Seller shall furnish to Buyer a written opinion by an independent consultant selected by Seller and acceptable to Buyer (in its reasonable discretion) to the effect that Seller, using its reasonable commercial efforts, is capable of making an affected Facility (including the Facility Energy and associated Environmental Attributes) RPS Compliant and EPS Compliant within such additional period. Except as provided above in connection with a Change in Law, in the event that one or some of the New Facilities or Existing Facilities, but not all Facilities, are not CEC Certified after the CEC Certification Deadline for such Facility, and the Energy that is delivered to Buyer at the Points of Delivery from such Facilities (including the Facility Energy and the associated Environmental Attributes) shall not be both RPS Compliant and EPS Compliant, then such Facilities shall be removed unless Buyer agrees to purchase Energy at the applicable index price as listed in the Intercontinental Exchange Palo Verde Electricity Price Index or its successor index.

(b) The Parties acknowledge that WREGIS may not currently permit Seller to obtain WREGIS Certificates for an amount of Energy equal to the Parasitic Load, whether or not Energy generated by the Facility, or energy from another source, serves such Parasitic Load. In the event that (i) the WREGIS Operating Rules permit Seller to obtain WREGIS Certificates for Energy generated by a Facility that would serve some or all of the Parasitic Load in the absence of Energy acquired by Seller to serve such Parasitic Load from a source other than such Facility, (ii) Seller elects, in its sole discretion, to acquire Energy from a source other than such Facility to serve some or all of its Parasitic Load, and (iii) such geothermal Energy generated by such Facility that would have served the Parasitic Load in the absence of the acquisition of Energy by Seller as described in (ii) above is RPS Compliant and EPS Compliant, such amounts of geothermal Energy generated by such Facility shall for the purposes of this Agreement constitute Facility Energy and shall be sold to Buyer in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement. Without limiting any other available method of acquiring Energy from a source other than the applicable Facility to serve some or all of its Parasitic Load, Seller will have the right to install, or cause to be installed, solar photovoltaic energy generating systems or other renewable energy generating systems at any Site to supply Parasitic Load, but the installation of such equipment and any other method of acquiring Energy from a source other than a Facility to serve some or all of its Parasitic Load will not result in an increase in the Facility Net Capacity or Maximum Generation, unless otherwise mutually agreed by the Parties.

ARTICLE IX
MAKEUP OF SHORTFALL ENERGY

Section 9.1 Makeup of Shortfall. During each Contract Year, all Delivered Energy shall first be applied to the determination of whether Seller has delivered the Guaranteed Generation. Except to the extent caused by a Force Majeure (but subject to the provisions of Section 14.6(a) providing that the obligations of Seller with respect to the delivery of Shortfall Energy or Replacement Energy under this Article IX not delivered due to Force Majeure are not excused, but such required delivery shall be extended for the duration of the Force Majeure), or except for curtailment under Section 7.4 or Buyer’s failure to accept Facility Energy or Replacement Energy in accordance with this Agreement, if Seller fails during any Contract Year to deliver Delivered Energy in an amount equal to the Guaranteed Generation, then Seller shall make up that shortfall of Delivered Energy (“Shortfall Energy”) in the next Contract Year or Contract Years in accordance with this Article IX.

Section 9.2 Replacement Energy. The amount of Shortfall Energy shall first be reduced by the amount of any Excess Energy delivered during the applicable Shortfall Makeup Period. To the extent there remains Shortfall Energy after the end of the applicable Shortfall Makeup Period, Seller shall, within ninety (90) days following the end of such Shortfall Makeup Period, provide Buyer with that quantity of Replacement Energy that is sufficient to make up the remaining Shortfall Energy in full. The Replacement Energy shall be delivered to Buyer at the Points of Delivery on a delivery schedule consistent with the Project’s historic percentage of on-peak and off-peak Delivered Energy. As employed in this Agreement, “Replacement Energy” means Energy produced by a facility other than one of the Facilities that, at the time delivered to Buyer, is (A) both RPS Compliant and EPS Compliant, (B) qualifies under California Public Utilities Code Section 399.16(b)(1), and (C) includes Environmental Attributes that have the same value and the same or comparable vintage with respect to the timeframe for retirement of such Environmental Attributes, if any, as the Environmental Attributes that would have been generated by the Project during the period for which the Replacement Energy is being provided.

Section 9.3 Shortfall Liquidated Damages. To the extent Seller is unable to procure sufficient Replacement Energy to make up any remaining Shortfall Energy at the end of such ninety (90) day period following the applicable Shortfall Makeup Period, then Seller shall pay Buyer, as liquidated damages, an amount for each MWh of remaining Shortfall Energy equal to the positive difference, if any, obtained by subtracting the amount that Buyer would have paid had Project Energy equal to the amount of Shortfall Energy been delivered to the Points of Delivery from the Replacement Price (“Shortfall Liquidated Damages”). The Shortfall Liquidated Damages payable under this Section 9.3 shall be payable in lieu of actual damages, shall be guaranteed as to payment by the Delivery Term Security, and, notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, other than Buyer’s remedies for a Default by Seller under Section 13.1(f), Shortfall Liquidated Damages shall be Buyer’s sole remedy, and Seller’s sole liability, for Seller’s failure to deliver Facility Energy and the associated Environmental Attributes and Replacement Energy and the associated Environmental Attributes, as provided under Sections 9.1 and 9.2 above. The Parties acknowledge and agree that (i) the damages that Buyer would incur due to shortfalls in Delivered Energy would be difficult or impossible to predict with certainty, and (ii) it is impractical and difficult to assess actual damages in those circumstances and, therefore, Shortfall Liquidated Damages are a fair and reasonable calculation of such damages.

Section 9.4 Application of Shortfall Energy or Replacement Energy. In the event of Shortfall Energy in multiple Contract Years, any Excess Energy or Replacement Energy delivered by Seller shall be applied in priority to the earliest outstanding shortfalls hereunder until all shortfalls are satisfied.

ARTICLE X
CAPACITY RIGHTS

Section 10.1 Purchase and Sale of Capacity Rights. For and in consideration of Buyer entering into this Agreement, and in addition to the agreement by Buyer and Seller to purchase and sell Facility Energy and Environmental Attributes on the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement, Seller hereby transfers to Buyer, and Buyer hereby accepts from Seller, all of the Capacity Rights, subject to Section 6.4. The consideration for the transfer of Capacity Rights is contained within the relevant prices for Facility Energy. In no event shall Buyer have any obligation or liability whatsoever for any debt pertaining to any Facility by virtue of Buyer’s ownership of the Capacity Rights or otherwise.

Section 10.2 Representation Regarding Ownership of Capacity Rights. Subject to Section 6.4: (i) Seller shall not assign, transfer, convey, encumber, sell or otherwise dispose of any of the Capacity Rights to any Person other than Buyer or attempt to do any of the foregoing with respect to any of the Capacity Rights; (ii) Seller shall not report to any Person that any of the Capacity Rights belong to any Person other than Buyer; and (iii) Buyer may, at its own risk and expense, report to any Person that the Capacity Rights belong to it.

Section 10.3 Further Assurances. Seller shall execute and deliver such documents and instruments and take such other action as Buyer may reasonably request to effect recognition and transfer of the Capacity Rights to Buyer. Seller shall bear the costs associated therewith.

ARTICLE XI
BILLING; PAYMENT; AUDITS; METERING; ATTESTATIONS; POLICIES

Section 11.1 Billing and Payment. Billing and payment for all Delivered Energy, including start-up and test Energy, shall be as set forth in this Article XI.

Section 11.2 Calculation of Energy Delivered; Invoices and Payment.

(a) Delivered Quantity. For each month during the Agreement Term, commencing with the first month in which Energy is delivered by Seller to and received by Buyer under this Agreement, Seller shall calculate the amount of Energy so delivered and received during such month as determined (i) in the case of Delivered Energy, from recordings produced by the Electric Metering Devices maintained pursuant to Section 11.6, at or near midnight on the last day of the month in question, (ii) in the case of curtailed Energy resulting from a curtailment described in Section 7.4(b), the amount of curtailed Energy determined pursuant to Section 7.4, and (iii) in the case of Replacement Energy, the amount in MWh actually supplied by Seller pursuant to Section 9.2, as measured by metering equipment approved by Buyer in its reasonable discretion.

(b) Invoice. Not later than the tenth (10th) day of each month, commencing with the month next following the month in which Energy is first delivered by Seller and received by Buyer under this Agreement, Seller shall deliver to Buyer a proper invoice showing the amount of Energy delivered by Seller for each Facility of the Project and received by Buyer, or curtailed Energy resulting from a curtailment described in Section 7.4(b), during the preceding month (with a separate allocation for each Facility and any Replacement Energy), Seller’s computation of the amount due Seller in respect thereof for Delivered Energy, including start-up and test Energy, for curtailed Energy resulting from a curtailment described in Section 7.4(b), and for Replacement Energy in accordance with Appendix A. Seller shall deliver to Buyer with each monthly invoice copies of the recordings and data from the Electric Metering Devices that support the calculations of Energy and Environmental Attributes included in the invoice for such month. Buyer may reconcile invoices using meter data made available through Section 11.6 (d). Monthly invoices shall be sent to the address set forth in Appendix C or such other address as Buyer may provide to Seller.

(i) Monthly invoices shall contain a statement that the representations and warranties set forth in this Agreement remain true and correct as of the date of the invoice and that there exists no Default by Seller or any event that, after notice or with the passage of time or both, would constitute a Default, or, if the foregoing statement cannot be made, Seller shall list, in detail, for each representation or warranty in this Agreement that is no longer true and correct or for each Default or potential Default, the nature of the condition or event, the period during which it has existed and the action which Seller has taken, is taking, or proposes to take with respect to each such condition or event.

(ii) Seller shall deliver to Buyer attestations of Environmental Attribute pursuant to Section 8.5 concurrently with the monthly invoices sent pursuant to this Section 11.2.

(iii) Buyer shall not be required to make invoice payments if the invoice is received more than six (6) months after the billing period. Each invoice shall show the title of the Agreement and, if applicable, the Agreement number, the name, address and identifying information of Seller and the identification of material, equipment, or services covered by the invoices.

(c) Payment. Not later than the thirtieth (30th) day after receipt by Buyer of Seller’s monthly invoice (or the next succeeding Business Day, if such thirtieth (30th) day is not a Business Day), Buyer shall pay to Seller, by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account specified by Seller or by any other means agreed to by the Parties from time to time, the amount set forth as due in such monthly invoice, subject to Section 11.3.

Section 11.3 Disputed Invoices. In the event any portion of any invoice is in dispute, the undisputed amount shall be paid when due. The Party disputing a payment shall promptly notify the other Party of the basis for the dispute, setting forth the details of such dispute in reasonable specificity. Disputes shall be discussed by the Authorized Representatives, who shall use reasonable efforts to amicably and promptly resolve the disputes, and any failure to agree shall be subject to resolution in accordance with Section 14.3. Upon resolution of any dispute, if all or part of the disputed amount is later determined to have been due, then the Party owing such payment or refund shall pay within ten (10) days after receipt of notice of such determination the amount determined to be due plus interest thereon at the Interest Rate from the due date until the date of payment. For purposes of this Section 11.3, “Interest Rate” shall mean the lesser of (i) two hundred (200) basis points above the per annum prime rate reported daily in The Wall Street Journal, or (ii) the maximum rate permitted by applicable Requirements of Law. Buyer may dispute an invoice at any time within three hundred sixty five (365) days after Buyer’s receipt of the invoice, provided that Buyer provides Seller with a written notification of such dispute, setting forth the details of such dispute in reasonable specificity. If, within three hundred sixty five (365) days of Buyer’s receipt of an invoice, Buyer does not notify Seller in writing of a dispute related to that invoice, Buyer shall be deemed to have waived any dispute related to that invoice and the invoice shall be considered correct and complete.

Section 11.4 Right of Setoff. In addition to any right now or hereafter granted under applicable law and not by way of limitation of any such rights, either Party shall have the right at any time or from time to time without notice to the other Party or to any other Person, any such notice being hereby expressly waived, to set off against any amount due from such Party to the other under this Agreement any amount due from the other Party to it under this Agreement, including any amounts due because of breach of this Agreement or any other obligation.

Section 11.5 Records and Audits. Seller and its Affiliates shall maintain, and shall cause Seller’s and its Affiliates’ subcontractors and suppliers, as applicable, to maintain, all records pertaining to the management of this Agreement, related subcontracts, and performance of services pursuant to this Agreement (including all ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, costs, metering, and Environmental Attributes), in their original form, including reports, documents, deliverables, employee time sheets, accounting procedures and practices, records of financial transactions, and other evidence, regardless of form (for example, machine readable media such as disk or tape, etc.) or type (for example, databases, applications software, database management software, or utilities), sufficient to properly reflect all services performed pursuant to this Agreement. If Seller and its Affiliates or Seller’s and its Affiliates’ subcontractors or suppliers are required to submit cost or pricing data in connection with this Agreement, Seller and its Affiliates shall maintain all records and documents necessary to permit adequate evaluation of the cost or pricing data submitted, along with the computations and projections used. Buyer and the Authorized Auditors may discuss such records with Seller’s officers and independent public accountants (and by this provision Seller authorizes said accountants to discuss such ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ and costs), all at such times and as often as may be reasonably requested. All such records shall be retained, and shall be subject to examination and audit by the Authorized Auditors, for a period of not less than four (4) years following final payment made by Buyer hereunder or the expiration or termination date of this Agreement, whichever is later. Seller and its Affiliates shall make said records or to the extent accepted by the Authorized Auditors, photographs, micro-photographs, or other authentic reproductions thereof, available to the Authorized Auditors at the Seller’s offices located at all reasonable times and without charge. The Authorized Auditors may reproduce, photocopy, download, transcribe, and the like any such records. Any information provided by Seller and its Affiliates on machine-readable media shall be provided in a format accessible and readable by the Authorized Auditors. Seller shall not, however, be required to furnish the Authorized Auditors with commonly available software. Seller, its Affiliates, and Seller’s subcontractors and suppliers, as applicable to the services provided under this Agreement, shall be subject at any time with fourteen (14) days prior written notice to audits or examinations by Authorized Auditors, relating to all ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ and to verify compliance with all Agreement requirements relative to practices, methods, procedures, performance, compensation, and documentation. Examinations and audits shall be performed using generally accepted auditing practices and principles and applicable Governmental Authority audit standards. If Seller utilizes or is subject to FAR, Part 30 and 31, et seq. accounting procedures, or a portion thereof, examinations and audits shall utilize such information. To the extent that the Authorized Auditor’s examination or audit reveals inaccurate, incomplete or non-current records, or records are unavailable, the records shall be considered defective. Consistent with standard auditing procedures, Seller shall be provided fifteen (15) days to review the Authorized Auditor’s examination results or audit and respond to Buyer’s prior to the examination’s or audit’s finalization and public release. If the Authorized Auditor’s examination or audit indicates Seller has been overpaid under a previous payment application, the identified overpayment amount shall be paid by Seller to Buyer within fifteen (15) days of notice to Seller of the identified overpayment. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the audit reveals that Buyer’s overpayment to Seller is more than the greater of $100,000 or five percent (5.0%) of the ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ reviewed, Seller shall pay all expenses and costs incurred by the Authorized Auditors arising out of or related to the examination or audit. Such examination or audit expenses and costs shall be paid by Seller to Buyer within fifteen (15) days of notice to the Seller of such costs and expenses. Any information provided by Seller to the Authorized Auditor shall be held by such Authorized Auditor in strict confidence and Seller may require such Authorized Auditor to enter into a reasonable confidentiality agreement prior to the disclosure of information hereunder; provided that the Authorized Auditors shall not be prevented from disclosure of such information to Buyer to the extent such disclosure to Buyer is required to enable Buyer to carry out its rights and responsibilities under this Agreement and Buyer shall treat such information as Confidential Information to the extent provided under Section 14.21.

Section 11.6 Electric Metering Devices.

(a) Delivered Energy shall be measured using Electric Metering Devices installed, owned and maintained by the Seller and its Affiliates. If the Electric Metering Devices are not installed at a Point of Delivery, meters or meter readings shall be adjusted to reflect losses from the Electric Metering Devices to such Point of Delivery. To the extent consistent with the requirements of the Transmission Provider, all Electric Metering Devices used to provide data for the computation of payments shall be sealed and Seller or its designee shall only break the seal when such Electric Metering Devices are to be inspected and tested or adjusted in accordance with this Section 11.6. Seller or its designee shall specify the number, type, and location of such Electric Metering Devices.

(b) Seller, its Affiliates or its designee, at no expense to Buyer, shall inspect and test all Electric Metering Devices upon installation and at least annually thereafter. Seller or its Affiliates shall provide Buyer annual certified test reports for each Facility Electric Metering Device thereafter throughout the duration of the Delivery Term. Seller shall provide Buyer with reasonable advance notice of, and permit a representative of Buyer to witness and verify, such inspections and tests to the extent consistent with the requirements of the Transmission Provider. Upon request by Buyer, Seller or its designee shall perform additional inspections or tests of any Electric Metering Device and shall allow a qualified representative of Buyer the right to inspect or witness the testing of any Electric Metering Device. The actual expense of any such requested additional inspection or testing shall be borne by Buyer, unless the results of such additional inspection or testing show an inaccuracy greater than one percent (1%), in which case Seller shall bear such costs. Seller shall provide copies of any inspection or testing reports to Buyer. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Seller shall have the right and Buyer shall permit Seller to withhold proprietary information unless such information is reasonably needed by Buyer to evaluate and verify such inspections and tests. In addition, Buyer shall hold any information obtained during or in connection with such inspections and tests in confidence.

(c) If an Electric Metering Device fails to register, or if the measurement made by an Electric Metering Device is found upon testing to be inaccurate by more than one percent (1.0%), an adjustment shall be made correcting all measurements by the inaccurate or defective Electric Metering Device for both the amount of the inaccuracy and the period of the inaccuracy. The adjustment period shall be determined by reference to Seller’s check-meters, if any, or as far as can be reasonably ascertained by Seller from the best available data, subject to review and approval by Buyer. If the period of the inaccuracy cannot be ascertained reasonably, any such adjustment shall be for a period equal to one-third of the time elapsed since the preceding test of the Electric Metering Devices. To the extent that the adjustment period covers a period of deliveries for which payment has already been made by Buyer, Buyer shall use the corrected measurements as determined in accordance with this Section 11.6 to recompute the amount due for the period of the inaccuracy and shall subtract the previous payments by Buyer for this period from such recomputed amount. If the difference is a positive number, the difference shall be paid by Buyer to Seller; if the difference is a negative number, that difference shall be paid by Seller to Buyer, or at the discretion of Buyer, may take the form of an offset to payments due to Seller from Buyer. Payment of such difference by the owing Party shall be made not later than thirty (30) days after the owing Party receives notice of the amount due, unless Buyer elects payment via an offset.

d) Seller shall work with Buyer to establish direct access by the Buyer to interval meter data for purposes of Buyer reconciliation of invoices.

Section 11.7 Taxes. Seller shall be responsible for and shall pay before the due dates therefor, any and all federal, state and local Taxes incurred by it as a result of entering into this Agreement and all Taxes imposed or assessed with respect to each Facility, each Site, or any other assets of Seller, the sale of Facility Energy and Environmental Attributes and all Taxes related to Seller’s income. Buyer shall be responsible for and shall pay before the due dates therefor, any and all federal, state and local Taxes incurred by it as a result of entering into this Agreement and all Taxes imposed or assessed with respect to any assets of Buyer or the purchase of Facility Energy and Environmental Attributes under this Agreement.

(h) Lease or Permit Termination. None of the Facilities are able to operate because one or more of the Leases or Permits fails to be in effect or has terminated, provided that if such failure or termination is due to a decision of a Governmental Authority, such decision must be final and nonappealable.

(i) Insurance Default. The failure of Seller or any Project Company to maintain and provide acceptable evidence of Insurance unless cured within five (5) days.

(j) Fundamental Change. Except as permitted by Section 14.7 (i) a Party makes an assignment of its rights or a delegation of its obligations under this Agreement (other than as a result of a transaction or series of transactions that does not constitute a Change of Control) or (ii) a Change in Control occurs (whether voluntary or by operation of law).

(k) Project Net Capacity Default. The failure by Seller to have achieved a minimum of 40 MW of total Project Net Capacity by the date that is ninety (90) days after the end of the Third Development Period.

Section 13.2 Default Remedy.

(a) If Buyer is in Default for nonpayment, subject to any duty or obligation under this Agreement, Seller may continue to provide services pursuant to its obligations under this Agreement; provided that nothing in this Section 13.2(a) shall affect Seller’s rights and remedies set forth in this Section 13.2. Seller’s continued service to Buyer shall not act to relieve Buyer of any of its duties or obligations under this Agreement.

(b) Notwithstanding any other provision herein, if any Default has occurred and is continuing, the affected Party may, whether or not the dispute resolution procedure set forth in Section 14.3 has been invoked or completed, bring an action in any court of competent jurisdiction as set forth in Section 14.13 seeking injunctive relief in accordance with applicable rules of civil procedure.

(c) Except as expressly limited by this Agreement, if a Default has occurred and is continuing and the Buyer is the Defaulting Party, Seller may without further notice exercise any rights and remedies provided herein or otherwise available at law or in equity, including the right to terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 13.3. No failure of Seller to exercise, and no delay in exercising, any right, remedy or power hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise by Seller of any other right, remedy or power hereunder preclude any other or future exercise of any right, remedy or power.

(d) Except as expressly limited by this Agreement, if a Default has occurred and is continuing and the Seller is the Defaulting Party, Buyer may without further notice exercise any rights and remedies provided for herein, or otherwise available at law or equity, including (i) application of all amounts available under the Performance Security against any amounts then payable by Seller to Buyer under this Agreement and (ii) termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 13.3. No failure of Buyer to exercise, and no delay in exercising, any right, remedy or power hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise by Buyer of any right, remedy or power hereunder preclude any other or future exercise of any right, remedy or power. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, Buyer’s exclusive remedies for a Default under Section 13.1(k) are the right to terminate this Agreement and be paid liquidated damages under Section 3.7.

Section 13.3 Termination for Default.

(a) If Default occurs, the Party that is not the Defaulting Party (the “Non Defaulting Party”) may, for so long as the Default is continuing and without limiting any other rights or remedies available to the Non-Defaulting Party under this Agreement, by notice (“Termination Notice”) to the Defaulting Party (i) establish a date (which shall be no earlier than the date of such notice and no later than twenty (20) days after the date of such notice) (“Early Termination Date”) on which this Agreement shall terminate, and (ii) withhold any payments due in respect of this Agreement; provided, upon the occurrence of any Default of the type described in Section 13.1(d) or Section 13.1(e), this Agreement shall automatically terminate, without notice or other action by either Party as if an Early Termination Date had been declared immediately prior to such event.

(b) If an Early Termination Date has been designated, the Non-Defaulting Party shall calculate in a commercially reasonable manner its Gains, Losses and Costs resulting from the termination of this Agreement and the resulting Termination Payment. The Gains, Losses and Costs relating to the Facility Energy and Environmental Attributes that would have been required to be delivered under this Agreement had it not been terminated shall be determined by comparing the amounts Buyer would have paid therefor under this Agreement to the equivalent quantities and relevant market prices either quoted by a bona fide third party offer or which are reasonably expected by Buyer to be available in the market under a replacement contract for this Agreement covering the same products and having a term equal to the Remaining Term at the date of the Termination Notice adjusted to account for differences in transmission, if any. The Non-Defaulting Party shall not be required to enter into any such replacement agreement in order to determine its Gains, Losses and Costs or the Termination Payment. To ascertain the market prices of a replacement contract, the Non Defaulting Party may consider, among other valuations, quotations from dealers in energy contracts and bona fide third party offers.

(c) For purposes of the Non-Defaulting Party’s determination of its Gains, Losses and Costs and the Termination Payment, it shall be assumed, regardless of the facts, that Seller would have sold, and Buyer would have purchased, each day during the Remaining Term (i) Facility Energy in an amount equal the Assumed Daily Deliveries, and (ii) the Environmental Attributes associated therewith. The “Assumed Daily Deliveries” is an amount equal to the Guaranteed Generation for the then current Contract Year multiplied by 1.0556, divided by 365.

(d) The Non-Defaulting Party shall notify the Defaulting Party of the Termination Payment, which notice shall include a written statement explaining in reasonable detail the calculation of such amount. The Defaulting Party shall, within ten (10) Business Days after receipt of such notice, pay the Termination Payment to the Non-Defaulting Party, together with interest accrued at the Interest Rate from the Early Termination Date until paid.

(e) If the Defaulting Party disagrees with the calculation of the Termination Payment and the Parties cannot otherwise resolve their differences, the calculation issue shall be submitted to informal non-binding dispute resolution as provided in Section 14.3(a). Following resolution of the dispute, the Defaulting Party shall pay the full amount of the Termination Payment (if any) determined by such resolution as and when required, but no later than thirty (30) days following the date of such resolution, together with all interest, at the Interest Rate, that accrued from the Early Termination Date until the date the Termination Payment is paid.

(f) For purposes of this Agreement:

(i) “Gains” means, with respect to a Party, an amount equal to the present value of the economic benefit (exclusive of Costs), if any, resulting from the termination of its obligations under this Agreement, determined in a commercially reasonable manner;

(ii) “Losses” means, with respect to a Party, an amount equal to the present value of the economic loss (exclusive of Costs), if any, resulting from the termination of its obligations under this Agreement, determined in a commercially reasonable manner;

(iii) “Costs” means, with respect to a Party, brokerage fees, commissions and other similar transaction costs and expenses reasonably incurred in terminating any arrangement pursuant to which it has hedged its obligations or entering into new arrangements which replace this Agreement, excluding attorneys’ fees, if any, incurred in connection with enforcing its rights under this Agreement. Each Party shall use reasonable efforts to mitigate or eliminate its Costs.

(iv) In no event shall a Party’s Gains, Losses or Costs include any penalties or similar charges imposed by the Non-Defaulting Party.

(v) The Present Value Rate shall be used as the discount rate in all present value calculations required to determine Gains, Losses and Costs.

(g) At the time for payment of any amount due under this Section, each Party shall pay to the other Party all additional amounts, if any, payable by it under this Agreement (including any amounts withheld pursuant to Section 13.3(a)(ii) above).

Section 14.3 Dispute Resolution.

(a) In the event of any claim, controversy or dispute between the Parties arising out of or relating to or in connection with this Agreement (including any dispute concerning the validity of this Agreement or the scope and interpretation of this Section 14.3) (a “Dispute”), either Party (the “Notifying Party”) may deliver to the other Party (the “Recipient Party”) notice of the Dispute with a detailed description of the underlying circumstances of such Dispute (a “Dispute Notice”). The Dispute Notice shall include a schedule of the availability of the Notifying Party’s senior officers (having a title of senior vice president (or its equivalent) or higher) duly authorized to settle the Dispute during the thirty (30) day period following the delivery of the Dispute Notice.

(b) The Recipient Party shall within five (5) Business Days following receipt of the Dispute Notice, provide to the Notifying Party a parallel schedule of availability of the Recipient Party’s senior officers (having a title of senior vice president (or its equivalent) or higher) duly authorized to settle the Dispute.

(d) As stated in Section 14.12, this Agreement shall be governed by, interpreted and enforced in accordance with laws of the State of California, without regard to the conflict of laws principles thereof. In addition to the dispute resolution process set forth in this section, parties to this Agreement must comply with California law governing claims against public entities and presentment of such claims.

Section 14.4 Further Assurances. Each Party agrees to execute and deliver all further instruments and documents, and take all further action not inconsistent with the provisions of this Agreement that may be reasonably necessary to effectuate the purposes and intent of this Agreement.

Section 14.5 No Dedication of Facilities. Any undertaking by one Party hereto to the other Party under any provisions of this Agreement shall not constitute the dedication of the system or any portion thereof of either Party to the public or to the other Party or any other Person, and it is understood and agreed that any such undertaking by either Party shall cease upon the termination of such Party’s obligations under this Agreement.

Section 14.6 Force Majeure.

(a) A Party shall not be considered to be in default in the performance of any of its obligations under this Agreement, other than an obligation to make payment, when and to the extent such Party’s performance is prevented by a Force Majeure that, despite the exercise of due diligence, such Party is unable to prevent or mitigate, provided the Party, as soon as practicable after becoming aware of the Force Majeure, declares the Force Majeure by giving a written notice (the “Force Majeure Notice”) to the other Party and upon request by the other Party furnishes the other Party with a detailed description of the full particulars of the Force Majeure reasonably promptly (and in any event within fourteen (14) days after the request therefor), which shall include information with respect to the nature, cause and date and time of commencement of such event, and the anticipated scope and duration of the delay. The Party providing the Force Majeure Notice shall be excused from fulfilling its obligations under this Agreement until such time as the Force Majeure has ceased to prevent performance or other remedial action is taken, at which time the Party shall promptly notify the other Party of the resumption of its obligations under this Agreement. If Seller is unable to deliver, or Buyer is unable to receive, Energy due to a Force Majeure, Buyer shall have no obligation to pay Seller for the Energy not delivered or received by reason thereof. It is understood by the Parties that the foregoing provisions shall not excuse any obligations of Seller with respect to Shortfall Energy and Replacement Energy as provided for under Article IX, that is not delivered due to Force Majeure, provided that such required delivery of Shortfall Energy or Replacement Energy, as applicable, shall be extended for the duration of the Force Majeure. In no event shall Buyer be obligated to compensate Seller or any other Person for any losses, expenses or liabilities that Seller or such other Person may sustain as a consequence of any Force Majeure.

(b) The term “Force Majeure” means (i) curtailment or interruption of Transmission Service (subject to Section 14.6(c)), any act of God, labor disturbance, act of the public enemy, war, insurrection, riot, civil disturbances, sabotage, blockade, expropriation, confiscation, fire, unusual or extreme adverse weather-related events or natural disasters (such as lightning, landslide, earthquake, tornado, hurricane, storm or flood), or any order, regulation or restriction imposed by WECC or NERC or by governmental, military or lawfully established civilian authorities, or (ii) any other event of circumstance, which, in each case of clauses (i) and (ii), (A) prevents one Party from performing any of its obligations under this Agreement, (B) could not reasonably be anticipated as of the date of this Agreement, (C) is not within the reasonable control of, or the result of negligence, willful misconduct, breach of contract, intentional act or omission or wrongdoing on the part of the affected Party (or any subcontractor or Affiliate of that Party, or any Person under the Control of that Party or any of its subcontractors or Affiliates, or any Person for whose acts such subcontractor or Affiliate is responsible), and (D) which by the exercise of due diligence the affected Party is unable to overcome or avoid or cause to be avoided; provided, nothing in this clause (D) shall be construed so as to require either Party to accede or agree to any provision not satisfactory to it in order to settle and terminate a strike or labor dispute in which it may be involved. Any Party rendered unable to fulfill any of its obligations by reason of a Force Majeure shall exercise due diligence to remove such inability with reasonable dispatch within a reasonable time period and mitigate the effects of the Force Majeure. The relief from performance shall be of no greater scope and of no longer duration than is required by the Force Majeure. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, a Force Majeure does not include any of the following (each an “Unexcused Cause”): (1) any Change in Law that shall cause the RPS Law or the EPS Law to be no longer in force or effect or that as a result of such Change in Law Seller shall be unable to make a Facility RPS Compliant or EPS Compliant as provided in Section 8.6(b); (2) events arising from the failure by Seller to construct, operate or maintain a Facility in accordance with this Agreement; (3) any increase of any kind in any cost; (4) delays in or inability of a Party to obtain financing or other economic hardship of any kind; (5) Seller’s ability to sell any Energy at a price in excess of those provided in this Agreement; (6) Seller’s failure to secure or obtain interconnection of a Facility or Transmission Services to a Point of Delivery; (7) curtailment or other interruption of any Transmission Services except as otherwise expressly provided in Section 14.6(c); (8) failure of third parties to provide goods or services essential to a Party’s performance except to the extent caused by an event that otherwise constitutes Force Majeure hereunder; (9) Facility or equipment failure of any kind except to the extent caused by an event that otherwise constitutes Force Majeure hereunder; or (10) any changes in the financial condition of the Buyer, any Seller Party, the Facility Lender or any subcontractor or supplier affecting the affected Party’s ability to perform its obligations under this Agreement.

(c) Neither Party may raise a claim of Force Majeure based in whole or in part on curtailment or other interruption of Transmission Services for any Energy at any time unless (A) such Party has arranged for Firm Transmission to be provided for the Facility Energy in connection with such Transmission Service at the time, and (B) the curtailment or interruption is not due to the fault or negligence of the Party claiming Force Majeure; provided, that notwithstanding anything in this Section to the contrary, the existence of the foregoing factors shall not be sufficient to conclusively or presumptively prove the existence of Force Majeure absent a showing of other facts and circumstances which in the aggregate with such factors establish that a Force Majeure as defined in Section 14.6(b) has occurred. For the avoidance of doubt, Buyer may not claim Force Majeure for any curtailment, interruption or other circumstance associated with Transmission Services downstream of a Point of Delivery, unless and to the extent that such curtailment, interruption or circumstance prevents Buyer or Buyer’s Transmission Provider from receiving Energy at such Point of Delivery.

(d) During the Delivery Term, if one or more events of Force Majeure (i) shall cause the aggregate capacity net of Parasitic Load of the Facilities that have achieved Delivery Commencement or Commercial Operation, as applicable, to be reduced to a capacity of less than fifty percent (50%) of the Project Net Capacity prior to the event of Force Majeure (adjusted to reflect the difference between ambient temperatures and annual average temperature) for a period of six (6) consecutive months, or (ii) shall prevent Buyer from accepting more than fifty percent (50%) of the Project Net Capacity prior to the event of Force Majeure (adjusted to reflect the difference between ambient temperatures and annual average temperature) at the Points of Delivery for any hour that a Facility is able to generate Facility Energy for a period of six (6) consecutive months (the period of six (6) consecutive months in either (i) or (ii), the “Force Majeure Trigger Period”), the non-claiming Party shall have the right, if the claiming Party is unable to overcome the condition in clause (i) or (ii) above, as applicable, within the Force Majeure Cure Period, to terminate this Agreement upon the last day of such Force Majeure Cure Period, so long as notice of termination is received prior to the end of the Force Majeure Cure Period.

Section 14.7 Assignment of Agreement; Certain Agreements by Seller.

(a) Except as set forth in this Section 14.7, neither Party may assign any of its rights, or delegate any of its obligations, under this Agreement or the Ancillary Documents without the prior written consent of the other Party, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. Any Change in Control (whether voluntary or by operation of law) shall be deemed an assignment and shall require the prior written consent of Buyer, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. Seller shall provide Buyer with sixty (60) days’ prior written notice of any proposed Change in Control. Concurrently with any reorganization or financing transaction or transactions constituting any Change in Control in which Seller merges or consolidates with any other Person and ceases to exist, the successor entity to Seller shall execute a written assumption agreement in favor of Buyer pursuant to which any such successor entity shall assume all of the obligations of Seller under this Agreement and the Seller Ancillary Documents to which Seller is a party and agree to be bound by all the terms and conditions of this Agreement and such Seller Ancillary Documents, as applicable.

(b) Buyer may from time to time and at any time assign any or all of its rights, and delegate any or all of its obligations, under this Agreement in whole or in part without the consent of Seller to any of the Buyer’s Members that has executed, or will execute contemporaneously with such assignment, an agreement to purchase the Energy delivered to Buyer under this Agreement; provided that the proposed assignee has an Investment-Grade Credit Rating and an assignment pursuant to this Section 14.7 will not impair the assignee’s credit rating. Except as set forth in this Section 14.7(b), Buyer shall not assign any of its rights, or delegate any of its obligations, under this Agreement without the prior written consent of Seller, which consent shall not be withheld or delayed unreasonably. Any purported assignment or delegation in violation of this provision shall be null and void and of no force or effect.

(c) Seller hereby expressly represents and confirms, and Buyer hereby expressly acknowledges based on such representation by Seller, that certain of the Project Companies are guarantors under (and as defined in) the Indenture and the Financing Documents and have assigned all of their rights, title and interest in, to their respective Facilities (and any Seller Ancillary Documents to which they are a party) to the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties (as such term is defined in the Indenture). To the extent required to comply with the terms of the Indenture and the Financing Documents, at Seller's request, Buyer shall enter into an agreement with such Project Companies and the Collateral Agent to evidence Buyer's consent to such assignment and to address such other matters as are customarily included in consents to assignments in the context of financing arrangements or agreements similar to the Indenture, which shall be in form and substance reasonably acceptable to Buyer (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed). Seller shall reimburse Buyer for the reasonable incremental direct expenses incurred by Buyer in the preparation, negotiation, execution or delivery of any documents requested by Seller or the Collateral Agent, and provided by Buyer, pursuant to this Section 14.7(c).

(d) Except as set forth in or permitted by this Section 14.7, neither Seller nor any Project Company has sold or transferred or shall sell or transfer all or any portion of a Facility to any Person, without the prior written consent of Buyer, which consent shall not be withheld, conditioned or delayed unreasonably. Any purported sale or transfer in violation of this Section 14.7(d) shall be null and void and of no force or effect.

(e) There are no third party beneficiaries of this Agreement, and, except as provided in this Section 14.7, this Agreement shall not grant any rights enforceable by any Person not a party to this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Buyer’s consent shall not be required for Seller to collaterally assign this Agreement to any Facility Lender for the sole purpose of financing or refinancing; provided, however, that the terms of such financing and the documentation relating thereto entered into after the date of this Agreement shall not conflict with the applicable terms and conditions of this Agreement. Seller shall provide Buyer with ninety (90) days prior written notice of any such assignment to any Facility Lender. Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything else expressed or implied herein to the contrary, except to the extent provided in the Indenture and the Financing Documents, Seller shall not assign, transfer, convey, encumber, sell or otherwise dispose of all or any portion of the Facility Energy, Capacity Rights or Environmental Attributes (not including the proceeds thereof) to any Facility Lender.

(f) To facilitate Seller’s or its Affiliates’ obtaining of financing or refinancing after the date of this Agreement in connection with the construction and/or operation of one or more Facilities, which may be financed individually or in one or more Portfolios as provided in Section 14.7(g), or the performance by Seller of its obligations under this Agreement, Buyer shall provide such consents to assignment of this Agreement, any Buyer Ancillary Documents and/or any Seller Ancillary Documents, in each case not including the deed of trust, mortgage or similar arrangement referred to in Section 14.7(g), (in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Buyer), as may be reasonably requested by Seller or any Facility Lender in connection with such financing, including the acquisition of equity for the development, construction, or operation of one or more Facilities or Seller; provided, however, that the terms of such financing and the documentation relating thereto shall not conflict with the applicable terms and conditions of this Agreement. Seller shall reimburse, or shall cause the Facility Lender to reimburse, Buyer for the reasonable incremental direct expenses incurred by Buyer in the preparation, negotiation, execution or delivery of any documents requested by Seller or the Facility Lender, and provided by Buyer, pursuant to this Section 14.7(f).

(g) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, Seller or one of more Affiliates thereof may hereafter enter into one or more credit or other agreements with one or more Facility Lenders providing for financing or refinancing of one or more Facilities, individually or as a Portfolio, (each, a “Facility Credit Agreement”) that provides, as security for Seller’s or such Affiliates’ performance thereunder, in addition to any assignment of this Agreement (if applicable), for a Lien on and security interest in and to the Facility(ies) or the Portfolio (as applicable) under a deed of trust, mortgage or similar arrangement, but only with the consent by Buyer (which consent shall not be withheld, conditioned or delayed unreasonably) provided pursuant to an agreement by and among Buyer, Seller or Seller’s Affiliates and the Facility Lender which shall be in form and substance reasonably acceptable to Buyer and shall contain terms that are customary for such consents provided in the context of arrangements similar to those contemplated in this Agreement.

(h) For the avoidance of doubt, any claims by Buyer for breach of this Agreement for failure of Seller to perform any of its obligations under this Agreement shall not be in any manner limited and Seller shall not be released from its obligations under this Agreement as a result of the exercise of any remedy or other enforcement action affecting the Facility by a lender, trustee, collateral agent or other party under any Seller Financing or Security Documents, and in any such event Buyer shall have all rights available to it under this Agreement and otherwise under applicable law as a result of such breach and failure to perform, including without limitation, its rights to receive payment under the Performance Security.

(i) Seller hereby agrees (i) not to consent or agree to or permit any amendment to or otherwise take any action under or in connection with the Indenture or any other Financing Documents, and (ii) to take any action required under or in connection with the Indenture or any other Financing Documents; provided that the foregoing restrictions in this Section 14.7(i) shall not apply if such consent, agreement, permission, action or failure to take action (A) will not impair Seller’s obligations under this Agreement and not impair or materially adversely affect the rights and interests of Buyer under this Agreement or (B) is required (I) by the terms and provisions of the Indenture or any other Financing Documents or (II) in order to comply with Requirements of Law.

Section 14.8 Ambiguity. The Parties acknowledge that this Agreement was jointly prepared by them, by and through their respective legal counsel, and any uncertainty or ambiguity existing herein shall not be interpreted against either Party on the basis that the Party drafted the language, but otherwise shall be interpreted according to the application of the rules on interpretation of contracts.

Section 14.9 Attorney Fees & Costs. Both Parties hereto agree that in any action to enforce the terms of this Agreement that each Party shall be responsible for its own attorney fees and costs. Each of the Parties to this Agreement was represented by its respective legal counsel during the negotiation and execution of this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent Buyer incurs legal costs in order to facilitate any collateral assignment or pledge of this Agreement under Section 14.7, or in determining whether a Change in Control has occurred, or in taking such other action or review that is at the request of Seller or required due to the actions or omissions of Seller, Seller shall bear Buyer’s reasonable and documented legal costs therefor.

Section 14.10 Voluntary Execution. Both Parties hereto acknowledge that they have read and fully understand the content and effect of this Agreement and that the provisions of this Agreement have been reviewed and approved by their respective counsel. The Parties to this Agreement further acknowledge that they have executed this Agreement voluntarily, subject only to the advice of their own counsel, and do not rely on any promise, inducement, representation or warranty that is not expressly stated herein.

Section 14.11 Entire Agreement. This Agreement (including all Appendices and Exhibits) contains the entire understanding concerning the subject matter herein and supersedes and replaces any prior negotiations, discussions or agreements between the Parties, or any of them, concerning that subject matter, whether written or oral, except as expressly provided for herein. This is a fully integrated document. Each Party acknowledges that no other party, representative or agent, has made any promise, representation or warranty, express or implied, that is not expressly contained in this Agreement that induced the other Party to sign this document. This Agreement may be amended or modified only by an instrument in writing signed by each Party.

Section 14.14 Execution in Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts and upon execution by each signatory, each executed counterpart shall have the same force and effect as an original instrument and as if all signatories had signed the same instrument. Any signature page of this Agreement may be detached from any counterpart of this Agreement without impairing the legal effect of any signature thereon, and may be attached to another counterpart of this Agreement identical in form hereto by having attached to it one or more signature pages.

Section 14.15 Effect of Section Headings. Section headings appearing in this Agreement are inserted for convenience only and shall not be construed as interpretations of text.

Section 14.16 Waiver. The failure of either Party to this Agreement to enforce or insist upon compliance with or strict performance of any of the terms or conditions hereof, or to take advantage of any of its rights hereunder, shall not constitute a waiver or relinquishment of any such terms, conditions or rights, but the same shall be and remain at all times in full force and effect. Notwithstanding anything expressed or implied herein to the contrary, nothing contained herein shall preclude either Party from pursuing any available remedies for breaches not rising to the level of a Default, including recovery of damages caused by the breach of this Agreement and specific performance or any other remedy given under this Agreement or now or hereafter existing in law or equity or otherwise. Seller acknowledges that money damages may not be an adequate remedy for violations of this Agreement and that Buyer may, in its sole discretion, seek and obtain from a court of competent jurisdiction specific performance or injunctive or such other relief as such court may deem just and proper to enforce this Agreement or to prevent any violation hereof. Seller hereby waives any objection to specific performance or injunctive relief. The rights granted herein are cumulative.

Section 14.17 Relationship of the Parties. This Agreement shall not be interpreted to create an association, joint venture or partnership between the Parties hereto or to impose any partnership obligation or liability upon either such Party. Neither Party shall have any right, power or authority to enter into any agreement or undertaking for, or act on behalf of, or to act as an agent or representative of, the other Party.

Section 14.19 Damage or Destruction; Insurance; Condemnation; Limit of Liability.

(a) Damage or Destruction. In the event of any damage or destruction of a Facility or any part thereof, Seller shall apply any applicable proceeds of Insurance directly related to such damage or destruction to cause the Facility or such part thereof to be diligently repaired, replaced or reconstructed by Seller so that the Facility or such part thereof shall be restored to substantially the same general condition and use as existed prior to such damage or destruction, unless a different condition or use is approved by the Buyer. Proceeds of Insurance with respect to such damage or destruction maintained as provided in this Agreement shall be applied to the payment for such repair, replacement or reconstruction of the damage or destruction.

(b) Insurance. Seller shall obtain and maintain the Insurance in accordance with Appendix F.

(c) Condemnation or Other Taking. For the Agreement Term, Seller shall immediately notify Buyer of the institution of any proceeding for the condemnation or other taking of the Facility or any portion thereof. Buyer may seek to participate in any such proceeding and Seller will deliver to Buyer all instruments reasonably available to Seller that are necessary or required by Buyer to permit such participation. Subject to the consent of the Facility Lender, all awards and compensation for the taking or purchase in lieu of condemnation of the Facility or any portion thereof shall be applied toward the repair, restoration, reconstruction or replacement of the Facility.

(d) Limitation of Liability. Except to the extent included in the liquidated damages, indemnification obligations related to third party claims or other specific charges expressly provided for herein, neither Party hereunder shall be liable for special, incidental, exemplary, indirect, punitive or consequential damages arising out of a Party’s performance or non-performance under this Agreement, whether based on or claimed under contract, tort (including such Party’s own negligence) or any other theory at law or in equity.

Section 14.20 Severability. In the event any of the terms, covenants or conditions of this Agreement, or the application of any such terms, covenants or conditions, shall be held invalid, illegal or unenforceable by any court having jurisdiction, all other terms, covenants and conditions of this Agreement and their application not adversely affected thereby shall remain in force and effect, provided that the remaining valid and enforceable provisions materially retain the essence of the Parties’ original bargain.

Section 14.21 Confidentiality.

(a) Each Party agrees, and shall use reasonable efforts to cause its parent, subsidiary and Affiliates, and its and their respective directors, officers, employees and representatives, to keep confidential, except as required by law, all documents, data, drawings, studies, projections, plans and other written information that relate to economic benefits to or amounts payable by either Party under this Agreement, and, with respect to documents, that are clearly marked “Confidential” at the time a Party shares such information with the other Party or, if orally disclosed, clearly identified as “Confidential” at the time a Party shares such information with the other Party (“Confidential Information”). The provisions of this Section 14.21 shall survive and shall continue to be binding upon the Parties for period of one (1) year following the date of termination of this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, information shall not be considered Confidential Information if such information (i) is disclosed with the prior written consent of the originating Party, (ii) was in the public domain prior to disclosure or is or becomes publicly known or available other than through the action of the receiving Party in violation of this Agreement, (iii) was lawfully in a Party’s possession or acquired by a Party outside of this Agreement, which acquisition was not known by the receiving Party to be in breach of any confidentiality obligation, or (iv) is developed independently by a Party based solely on information that is not considered confidential under this Agreement.

(b) Either Party may, without violating this Section 14.21, disclose matters that are made confidential by this Agreement:

(i) to its counsel, accountants, auditors, advisors, other professional consultants, credit rating agencies, actual or prospective co-owners, investors, lenders, underwriters, contractors, suppliers, and others involved in construction, operation and financing transactions and arrangements for a Party or its subsidiaries, Affiliates, or parent;

(ii) to governmental officials and parties involved in any proceeding in which either Party is seeking a permit, certificate, or other regulatory approval or order necessary or appropriate to carry out this Agreement; and

(iii) to governmental officials or the public as required by any law, regulation, order, rule, order, ruling or other Requirement of Law, including oral questions, discovery requests, subpoenas, civil investigations or similar processes and laws or regulations requiring disclosure of financial information, information material to financial matters, and filing of financial reports.

(c) If a Party is requested or required, pursuant to any applicable law, regulation, order, rule, order, ruling or other Requirement of Law, discovery request, subpoena, civil investigation or similar process to disclose any of the Confidential Information, such Party shall provide prompt written notice to the other Party of such request or requirement so that at such other Party’s expense, such other Party can seek a protective order or other appropriate remedy concerning such disclosure.

(d) Notwithstanding the foregoing or any other provision of this Agreement, Seller acknowledges that Buyer and Buyer’s Members, as California municipal corporations or public agencies, are subject to disclosure as required by the California Public Records Act, Cal. Govt. Code §§ 6250 et seq. (“CPRA”) and the ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇. ▇▇▇▇▇ Act, Cal. Govt. Code §§ 54950 et seq. (“▇▇▇▇▇ Act”). Confidential Information of Seller provided to Buyer pursuant to this Agreement shall become the property of Buyer and Buyer’s Members and Seller acknowledges that Buyer and Buyer’s Members shall not be in breach of this Agreement or have any liability whatsoever under this Agreement or otherwise for any claims or causes of action whatsoever resulting from or arising out of Buyer’s or Buyer’s Members copying or releasing to a third party any of the Confidential Information of Seller as required pursuant to the CPRA or ▇▇▇▇▇ Act. Notwithstanding the foregoing or any other provision of this Agreement, Buyer may record, register, deliver and file all such notices, statements, instruments and other documents as may be necessary or advisable to render fully valid, perfected and enforceable under all applicable law the credit support contemplated by this Agreement and the Buyer Ancillary Documents and Seller Ancillary Documents and the rights, Liens and priorities of Buyer with respect to such credit support.

(e) If Buyer receives a CPRA request for Confidential Information of Seller, and Buyer determines that such Confidential Information is subject to disclosure under the CPRA, then Buyer shall notify Seller of the request and its intent to disclose the documents. Buyer shall cooperate with Seller as permitted under the CPRA to protect any Confidential Information of Seller. Buyer, as required by the CPRA, shall release such documents unless the Seller timely obtains a court order prohibiting such release. If Seller, at its sole expense, chooses to seek a court order prohibiting the release of Confidential Information pursuant to a CPRA request, then Buyer shall, only if authorized under the CPRA, delay release of the Confidential Information until Seller has had the opportunity to seek such court order, and Seller undertakes and agrees to defend, indemnify and hold harmless Buyer from and against all suits, claims, and causes of action brought against Buyer for Buyer’s refusal to disclose Confidential Information of Seller to any person making a request pursuant to CPRA. Seller’s indemnity obligations shall include, but are not limited to, all actual costs incurred by Buyer, and specifically including costs of experts and consultants, as well as all damages or liability of any nature whatsoever arising out of any such suits, claims, and causes of action brought against Buyer, through and including any appellate proceedings.

Further, absent the prior agreement in writing by both Parties, the standard of review for changes to the rates, terms or conditions of this Agreement proposed by a Party, a non-Party or the FERC acting sua sponte shall be the “public interest” application of the “just and reasonable” standard of review set forth in United Gas Pipe Line Co. v. Mobile Gas Service Corp., 350 US 332 (1956) and Federal Power Commission v. Sierra Pacific Power Co., 350 US 348 (1956).

The applicable provisions of Executive Order No. 11246 of September 24, 1965; Part 60-741 of 41 Code of Federal Regulations pertaining to handicapped workers, including 60-741.4 Affirmative Action Clause; and Sections 10.8 to 10.13 of the Los Angeles Administrative Code (“LAAC”) pertaining to nondiscrimination in employment in the performance of City of Los Angeles contracts are incorporated herein by reference and made a part hereof as if they were fully set forth herein.

(ii) Any of the above-mentioned nondiscrimination provisions shall be included and effective in all subcontracts for the duration of this Agreement.

(iii) Seller agrees to complete the forms attached to Appendix K related to the Non-Discrimination/Equal Employment Practices, Affirmative Action Plan, and any certifications attached thereto.

Buyer’s goals for SBE/DVBE participation in performance of its contracts are twenty percent (25%) for SBEs and three percent (3%) for DVBEs. Seller shall assist Buyer in implementing this policy by taking all commercially reasonable steps to ensure that all available business enterprises, including SBEs and DVBEs, have an equal opportunity to compete for and participate in the work being requested by this Agreement.

(ii) Seller shall notify Buyer if Seller is a certified SBE, DVBE, DBE, WBE, MBE, or LGBTBE. Seller shall provide to Buyer (A) the company name, contact person, address, and telephone number of each proposed Subcontractor that qualifies as an SBE, DVBE, DBE, WBE, MBE, or LGBTBE and (B) copies of all certifications of such Subcontractor as an SBE, DVBE, DBE, WBE, MBE, or LGBTBE as applicable.

(d) Child Support Policy. Seller and any of its subcontractor(s) shall fully comply with all applicable state and federal employment reporting requirements for Seller’s and any Seller’s subcontractor(s)’ employees. Seller and any of its subcontractor(s) shall fully comply with all lawfully served Wage and Earnings Assignment Orders and Notices of Assignment in accordance with the California Family Code, to the extent applicable. Seller and any of its subcontractor(s) shall certify that the principal owner(s) thereof (which shall include any person who owns an interest of ten percent (10%) or more) are in compliance with any Wage and Earnings Assignment Orders or Notices of Assignment applicable to them personally. Seller and any of its subcontractor(s) shall certify that such compliance will be maintained throughout the term of this Agreement. Failure of Seller and/or any of its subcontractor(s) to fully comply with all applicable reporting requirements or to implement lawfully served Wage and Earnings Assignments or Notices of Assignment or failure of the principal owner(s) to comply with any Wage and Earnings Assignments or Notices of Assignment applicable to them personally shall constitute a Default under this Agreement. Failure of Seller and/or any of its subcontractor(s) or principal owner(s) thereof to cure the Default within ninety (90) days of notice of such Default by Buyer shall subject this Agreement to termination. Seller agrees to complete the forms attached to Appendix K related to the Child Support Policy and any certifications attached thereto.

In the case of impracticality in any provisions of the form due to the substitution of Buyer for the City of Los Angeles, Buyer will reasonably accommodate changes and/or substitutions in the requirements of the form as necessary to accomplish the purpose of the SFPO.

(i) Los Angeles Municipal Lobbying Ordinance. Seller agrees to comply with the disclosure requirements and prohibitions established in the Los Angeles Municipal Lobbying Ordinance if Seller qualifies as a lobbying entity under Los Angeles Municipal Code Section 48.02.

FORM OF GUARANTEE

This Guarantee dated as of [_____________] is made by [_______________] (the “Guarantor”) in favor of SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA PUBLIC POWER AUTHORITY, a joint powers authority created under the laws of the State of California (the “Beneficiary”).

ARTICLE ONE
Section 1.01 Guarantee.

(a) For valuable consideration in connection with [identify PPA and other Seller Ancillary Documents as appropriate, as each may hereafter be amended, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, collectively, the “Guaranteed Contract”] with (Counterparty/Seller name and description to the underlying Guaranteed Contract, the “Counterparty”) subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein and effective from the date herein, the Guarantor irrevocably and unconditionally guarantees to the Beneficiary, its successors and permitted assigns, the prompt payment on demand, in lawful money of the United States, of any amount due and payable to the Beneficiary arising out of or under the Guaranteed Contract, when the same shall become due, whether at stated maturity, by acceleration, demand or otherwise (including amounts that would become due but for the operation of the automatic stay under Section 362(a) of the Bankruptcy Code) subject to any applicable grace period thereunder and the prompt and proper performance by the Counterparty of all of its other obligations to the Beneficiary pursuant to the Guaranteed Contract (collectively, the “Guaranteed Obligations”). This is a guarantee of payment and performance and not merely a guarantee of collection, and the Guarantor is liable as a primary obligor for the amounts and other obligations due hereunder. The Beneficiary shall make demands for payment or performance hereunder, as the case may be, by providing the Guarantor with written notice as provided below, and the Guarantor shall make payments or perform, as the case may be, within five (5) business days after receipt of any such notice. The Guarantor shall make each payment to the Beneficiary in U.S. Dollars in immediately available funds as directed by the Beneficiary.

(b) The obligations of Guarantor hereunder are irrevocable, absolute, independent and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance which constitutes a legal or equitable discharge of a guarantor or surety other than payment in full in cash and performance of the Guaranteed Obligations. In furtherance of the foregoing and without limiting the generality thereof, Guarantor agrees that: (a) Beneficiary may enforce this Guarantee upon the occurrence and during the continuance of a default or early termination event under the Guaranteed Contracts notwithstanding the existence of any dispute between Counterparty and Beneficiary with respect to the existence of such event; (b) the obligations of Guarantor hereunder are independent of the obligations of Counterparty under the Guaranteed Contracts and the obligations of any other guarantor of obligations of Counterparty and a separate action or actions may be brought and prosecuted against Guarantor whether or not any action is brought against Counterparty or any of such other guarantors and whether or not Counterparty is joined in any such action or actions; and (c) Guarantor’s payment or performance of a portion, but not all, of the Guaranteed Obligations shall in no way limit, affect, modify or abridge Guarantor’s liability for any portion of the Guaranteed Obligations that has not been paid or performed. This Guarantee is a continuing guaranty and shall be binding upon Guarantor and its successors and assigns, and Guarantor irrevocably waives any right (including any such right arising under California Civil Code Section 2815) to revoke this Guarantee as to future transactions giving rise to any Guaranteed Obligations.

G-1

(c) Any interest on any portion of the Guaranteed Obligations that accrues after the commencement of any proceeding, voluntary or involuntary, involving the bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership, reorganization, liquidation or arrangement of Counterparty (or, if interest on any portion of the Guaranteed Obligations ceases to accrue by operation of law by reason of the commencement of said proceeding, such interest as would have accrued on such portion of the Guaranteed Obligations if said proceeding had not been commenced) shall be included in the Guaranteed Obligations because it is the intention of Guarantor and Beneficiary that the Guaranteed Obligations should be determined without regard to any rule of law or order that may relieve Counterparty of any portion of such Guaranteed Obligations.

(d) Upon the failure of Counterparty to pay or perform any of the Guaranteed Obligations when and as the same shall become due, Guarantor will upon demand pay, or cause to be paid, in cash, to Beneficiary an amount equal to the aggregate of the unpaid Guaranteed Obligations, or perform any such outstanding Guaranteed Obligations, as the case may be.

(e) This Guarantee shall terminate only upon the full satisfaction of the Guaranteed Obligations. If, notwithstanding the foregoing, Guarantor shall have any non-waivable right under applicable law or otherwise to terminate or revoke this Guarantee, Guarantor agrees that the termination or revocation shall not be effective until a written notice of the termination or revocation is received by Beneficiary and shall not affect the rights and powers of Beneficiary to enforce rights arising prior to receipt of the notice. Any rights arising out of advances or actions by Beneficiary after Guarantor’s termination or revocation but prior to receipt of the requisite notice shall be the same as if the termination or revocation had not occurred.

Section 1.02 Guarantee Absolute.

(a) To the extent required hereunder, the Guaranteed Obligations will be paid strictly in accordance with the terms of the Guaranteed Contract, regardless of any bankruptcy or other law affecting any of such terms or the rights of the Beneficiary with respect thereto. The Guarantor’s obligations under this Guarantee shall not be impaired by any increase, reduction, extension, rearrangement or subordination of the Guaranteed Obligations, any amendment, supplement, or other modification of the Guaranteed Contracts, any grant or impairment of any security or support for the Guaranteed Obligations, the failure to give notice of any default or event of default, however denominated, under the Guaranteed Contracts or of the bringing of action to enforce the payment or performance of the Guaranteed Obligations or any other notice of any kind relating to the Guaranteed Obligations, or any other action which affects the Guaranteed Obligations.

G-2

(b) Guarantor further agrees that, to the extent that the Counterparty or the Guarantor makes a payment or payments to the Beneficiary which payment or payments or any part thereof are subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside, or required to be repaid to the Counterparty or the Guarantor or their respective estate, trustee, receiver, or any other party under any bankruptcy law, state or federal law, common law, or equitable cause, then to the extent of such payment or repayment, this Guarantee and the advances or part thereof which have been paid, reduced, or satisfied by such amount shall be reinstated and continued in full force and effect as of the date such initial payment, reduction, or satisfaction occurred.

ARTICLE TWO
Section 2.01. Severability.

(a) In case any one or more of the provisions of this Guarantee shall for any reason be held to be illegal or invalid by a court of competent jurisdiction, it is the intention of each of the parties to this Guarantee that such illegality or invalidity shall not affect any other provision hereof, but this Guarantee shall be construed or enforced as if such illegal or invalid provision had not been contained herein unless such a court holds that such provisions are not separable from other provisions of this Guarantee.

(b) The obligations hereunder are joint and several, and independent of the obligations of Counterparty, and a separate action or actions may be brought and prosecuted against Guarantor, whether or not action is brought against Counterparty or whether or not Counterparty is joined in any such action or actions.

ARTICLE THREE
Section 3.01. Guarantor’s Warranties.

Guarantor makes the following representations and warranties to Beneficiary:

(a) (i) this Guarantee is executed at Beneficiary’s request; (ii) Guarantor has not and will not without prior written consent of Beneficiary, sell, lease, assign, encumber, hypothecate, transfer or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of Guarantor’s assets, or any interest therein; and (iii) Guarantor has adequate means of obtaining from Counterparty on a continuing basis financial and other information pertaining to Counterparty’s financial condition without relying on Beneficiary therefor;

(b) Guarantor agrees to keep adequately informed from such means of any facts, events or circumstances which Guarantor consider material or which might in any way affect Guarantor’s risks hereunder. With respect to information or material acquired in the normal course of Beneficiary’s relationship with Counterparty, Guarantor agrees that Beneficiary shall have no obligation to disclose such information or material to Guarantor;

(c) Guarantor is a [______________], duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the State of [________], and has the legal power and authority to own its properties, to carry on its business as now being conducted and to enter into this Guarantee and effect the transactions contemplated hereby and perform and carry out all covenants and obligations on its part to be performed under and pursuant to this Guarantee;

G-3

(d) the execution, delivery and performance by Guarantor of this Guarantee and has been duly authorized by all necessary action, and do not and will not require any consent or approval of Guarantor’s managing member or equity holders or other Person other than that which has been obtained;

(e) the execution and delivery of this Guarantee and the fulfillment of and compliance with the provisions of this Guarantee do not and will not conflict with or constitute a breach of or a default under, any of the terms, conditions or provisions of any federal, state and local laws, statutes, regulations, rules, codes or ordinances enacted, adopted, issued or promulgated by any federal, state, local or other governmental authority, or any organizational documents, agreement, deed of trust, mortgage, loan agreement, other evidence of indebtedness or any other agreement or instrument to which Guarantor is a party or by which it or any of its property is bound, or result in a breach of or a default under any of the foregoing or result in or require the creation or imposition of any lien or encumbrance upon any of the properties or assets of Guarantor; and

(f) this Guarantee constitutes the legal, valid and binding obligation of Guarantor enforceable in accordance with its terms, except as such enforceability may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or similar laws relating to or affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally or by general equitable principles, regardless of whether such enforceability is considered in a proceeding in equity or at law.

ARTICLE FOUR

Section 4.01. Waivers.

(a) It shall not be necessary for the Beneficiary, in order to enforce this Guarantee, to exhaust the Beneficiary’s remedies against the Counterparty, to enforce any security or support for the payment or performance of the Guaranteed Obligations, or to enforce any other means of obtaining payment or performance of the Guaranteed Obligations. The Guarantor waives any rights under applicable state law related to the foregoing. Until irrevocable payment in full and performance of the Guaranteed Obligations, the Guarantor will not exercise any right of subrogation (including any statutory rights of subrogation under Section 509 of the Bankruptcy Code, 11 U.S.C. § 509, or under applicable state law) or any right to participate in any claim or remedy of the Beneficiary against the Counterparty, but this standstill is not intended as a permanent waiver of the subrogation rights of the Guarantor. To the extent permitted by law, Guarantor waives the benefit of any statute of limitations affecting its liability hereunder or the enforcement thereof, and agrees that any payment of any obligation or other act which shall toll any statute of limitations applicable to the obligation shall also operate to toll such statute of limitations applicable to Guarantor’s liability hereunder. The liability of Guarantor hereunder shall be reinstated and revived and the rights of Beneficiary shall continue with respect to any amount paid by Counterparty on account of the obligations guaranteed hereby, which shall thereafter be required to be restored or returned by Beneficiary upon the bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization of Counterparty or for any other reason, all as though such amount had not been paid. The Guarantor hereby waives notice of acceptance of this Guarantee and notice of any obligation or liability to which it may apply, and waives presentment, demand for payment or performance, protest, notice of dishonor or non-payment or non-performance of any such obligation or liability, suit or the taking of other action by Beneficiary against, and any other notice to, the Counterparty, the Guarantor or others. Any other suretyship defenses are hereby waived by the Guarantor. This Guarantee and the obligations of Guarantor hereunder shall be valid and enforceable and shall not be subject to any limitation, impairment or discharge for any reason (other than payment in full in cash and performance of the Guaranteed Obligations). The Beneficiary shall not be required to inquire into the capacity or powers of Guarantor or Counterparty or the officers, directors or any agents acting or purporting to act on behalf of any of them.

G-4

(b) In addition to the foregoing, Guarantor specifically waives:

(i) any right to require Beneficiary to (A) proceed against any person, including Counterparty; (B) proceed against or exhaust any collateral held from Counterparty, and other endorser or guarantor or any other person; (C) give notice of terms, time and place of any public or private sale of personal property or real property security held from Counterparty or comply with any other provisions of Section 9504 of the California Uniform Commercial Code or sections 2924 through 2924k of the California Civil Code, to the extent allowed by law; (D) pursue any other remedy in Beneficiary’s power; or (E) make any presentments, demands for performance, or give any notices of nonperformance, protests, notices of protests or notices of dishonor in connection with any obligations or evidences of indebtedness held by Beneficiary as security, in connection with any obligations or evidences of indebtedness which constitute in whole or in part the obligations guaranteed hereunder, or in connection with the creation of new or additional obligations;

(ii) in accordance with Section 2856 of the California Civil Code, any and all rights and defenses available to it by reason of Sections 2787 to 2855, inclusive, of the California Civil Code;

(iii) any defense arising by reason of (A) the incapacity, lack of authority or any disability or other defense of Counterparty, any other endorser or guarantor or any other person, including any defense based on or arising out of the lack of validity or the unenforceability of the Guaranteed Obligations or any agreement or instrument relating thereto or by reason of the cessation of the liability of Counterparty from any cause other than payment in full in cash and performance of the Guaranteed Obligations; (B) the cessation from any cause whatsoever, other than payment and performance in full of the obligations of Counterparty, of the liability of Counterparty, any endorser or guarantor or any other person; (C) the application by Counterparty of the proceeds of any obligations for purposes other than the purpose represented by Counterparty to Beneficiary or intended or understood by Beneficiary or Guarantor; (D) any act or omission by Beneficiary which directly or indirectly results in or aids the discharge of Counterparty or any obligations by operation of law or otherwise; (E) any modification of the obligations, in any form whatsoever, including any modification made after revocation hereof to any obligations incurred prior to such revocation, and including the renewal, extension, acceleration or other change in time for payment of the obligations, or other change in the terms of the obligations or any part thereof, including increase or decrease of the rate of interest thereon; (F) any defense based upon (i) any principles or provisions of law, statutory or otherwise which provide that the obligation of a surety must be neither larger in amount nor in other respects more burdensome than that of the principal or that are or might be in conflict with the terms of this Guarantee and any legal or equitable discharge of Guarantor’s obligations hereunder, (ii) the benefit of any statute of limitations affecting Guarantor’s liability hereunder or the enforcement hereof, (iii) any rights to set-offs, recoupments and counterclaims, and (iv) promptness, diligence and any requirement that Beneficiary protect, secure, perfect or insure any Lien or any property subject thereto; (G) any defense based upon Beneficiary’s errors or omissions in the administration of the Guaranteed Obligations, except behavior that amounts to bad faith; (H) any defense based upon notices, demands, presentments, protests, notices of protest, notices of dishonor and notices of any action or inaction, including acceptance of this Guarantee, notices of default or early termination under the Guaranteed Contracts or any agreement or instrument related thereto, notices of any renewal, extension or modification of the Guaranteed Obligations or any agreement related thereto and notices of any extension of credit to Counterparty; and (I) to the fullest extent permitted by law, any defenses or benefits that may be derived from or afforded by law which limit the liability of or exonerate guarantors or sureties, or which may conflict with the terms of this Guarantee;

G-5

(iv) any right to enforce any remedy which Beneficiary now has or may hereafter have against Counterparty, any other endorser or guarantor or any other person, and waives any benefit of, or any right to participate in any security whatsoever now or hereafter held by Beneficiary, and waives any rights or benefits which Guarantor might have under California Code of Civil Procedure Sections 580a and 726 (limiting the amount of any deficiency judgment to the difference between the amount of any indebtedness owed and the greater of the fair value of the security or the amount for which the security was actually sold), 580b (barring deficiencies with respect to real property purchase money obligations), and 580d (barring recovery of a deficiency judgment after real property security is sold under a power of private sale) as from time to time amended and Guarantor shall have no right of subrogation;

(v) all rights and defenses arising out of an election of remedies by the Beneficiary, even though that election of remedies, such as a non-judicial foreclosure with respect to security for a guaranteed obligation, has destroyed the Guarantor’s rights of subrogation and reimbursement against the Counterparty by operation of Section 580d of the California Code of Civil Procedure or otherwise;

(vi) waives all rights and defenses that the Guarantor may have because the Counterparty’s debt is secured by real property, which shall allow the Beneficiary to collect from the Guarantor without first foreclosing on any real or personal property collateral pledged by the Counterparty and, if the Beneficiary forecloses on any real property collateral pledged by the Counterparty (A) the amount of the debt may be reduced only by the price for which that collateral is sold at the foreclosure sale, even if the collateral is worth more than the sale price; and (B) the Beneficiary may collect from the Guarantor even if the Beneficiary, by foreclosing on the real property collateral, has destroyed any right the Guarantor may have to collect from the Counterparty. The waiver contained in this Section 4.01(b)(vi) is an unconditional and irrevocable waiver of any rights and defenses the Guarantor may have because the Counterparty’s debt is secured by real property. These rights and defenses include, but are not limited to, any rights or defenses based upon Sections 580a, 580b, 580d or 726 of the California Code of Civil Procedure.

G-6

Section 4.02. Guarantor’s Understandings With Respect To Waivers.

(a) Guarantor warrants and agrees that Guarantor has had all necessary opportunity to secure any advice which Guarantor desires with respect to each of the waivers set forth above, that such waivers are made with Guarantor’s full knowledge of its significance and consequences, and that under the circumstances, the waivers are reasonable and not contrary to public policy or law.

(b) Guarantor acknowledges that Guarantor would or might have a defense to enforcement of this Guarantee if, in the absence of an effective waiver or authorization by Guarantor, Beneficiary were to take any of the actions or exercise any of the remedies (i) that are otherwise authorized by Guarantor herein or (ii) that are described in Sections 4.01 and 4.02 and as to which Guarantor waives any defenses. Without limiting the foregoing, in the absence of an effective waiver, Beneficiary’s foreclosure against real property security by power of sale under Section 580d of the California Code of Civil Procedure would destroy Guarantor’s subrogation and reimbursement rights against Counterparty and would thus provide Guarantor with a defense to Beneficiary’s enforcement of this Guarantee. It is Guarantor’s intention in executing this Guarantee to waive all such defenses, including the defense described in the preceding sentence, in advance.

(c) Until the Guaranteed Obligations are satisfied in full, Guarantor shall withhold exercise of (a) any claim, right or remedy, direct or indirect, that Guarantor now has or may hereafter have against Counterparty or any of its assets in connection with this Guarantee or the performance by Guarantor of its obligations hereunder, in each case whether such claim, right or remedy arises in equity, under contract, by statute (including under California Civil Code Section 2847, 2848 or 2849), under common law or otherwise and including (i) any right of subrogation, reimbursement or indemnification that Guarantor now has or may hereafter have against Counterparty, (ii) any right to enforce, or to participate in, any claim, right or remedy that Beneficiary now has or may hereafter have against Counterparty, and (iii) any benefit of, and any right to participate in, any collateral or security now or hereafter held by Beneficiary and (b) any right of contribution Guarantor now has or may hereafter have against any other guarantor of any of the Guaranteed Obligations. Guarantor further agrees that, to the extent the agreement to withhold the exercise of its rights of subrogation, reimbursement, indemnification and contribution as set forth herein is found by a court of competent jurisdiction to be void or voidable for any reason, any rights of subrogation, reimbursement or indemnification Guarantor may have against Counterparty or against any collateral or security, and any rights of contribution Guarantor may have against any such other guarantor, shall be junior and subordinate to any rights Beneficiary may have against Counterparty, to all right, title and interest Beneficiary may have in any such collateral or security, and to any right Beneficiary may have against such other guarantor.

G-7

(d) Notwithstanding the foregoing, all waivers in this Guarantee shall be effective only to the extent permitted by law.

Section 4.03. Beneficiary’s Rights With Respect To Guarantor’s Property. In addition to all liens upon, and rights of setoff against the moneys, securities or other property of Guarantor given to Beneficiary by law, Beneficiary shall have a lien upon and a right of setoff against all moneys, securities or other property of Guarantor now or hereafter in possession of or on deposit with Beneficiary, whether held in a general or special account or deposit, or for safekeeping or otherwise, and every such lien and right of setoff may be exercised without demand upon or notice to Guarantor. No lien or right of setoff shall be deemed to have been waived by any act or conduct on the part of Beneficiary, or by any neglect to exercise such right to setoff or to enforce such lien, or by any delay in so doing, and every right of setoff and lien shall continue in full force and effect until such right of setoff or lien is specifically waived or released by any instrument in writing executed by Beneficiary.

Section 4.04. Subordination of Counterparty’s Debts to Guarantor. Any obligation of Counterparty now or hereafter held by Guarantor is hereby subordinated in right of payment to the Guaranteed Obligations, and any such obligation of Counterparty to Guarantor collected or received by Guarantor after a default or early termination event has occurred and is continuing, and any amount paid to Guarantor on account of any subrogation, reimbursement, indemnification or contribution rights referred to in the preceding paragraph when all Guaranteed Obligations have not been paid in full, shall be held in trust for Beneficiary and shall forthwith be paid over to Beneficiary to be credited and applied against the Guaranteed Obligations. Such obligation of Counterparty to Guarantor is assigned to Beneficiary as security for this Guarantee and the obligation and, if Beneficiary requests, shall be collected and received by Guarantor, as trustee for Beneficiary and paid over to Beneficiary on account of the obligation of Counterparty to Beneficiary but without reducing or affecting in any manner the liability of Guarantor under the other provisions of this Guarantee. Any such notes now or hereafter evidencing such obligation of Counterparty to Guarantor shall be marked with a legend that the same are subject to this Guarantee, and, if Beneficiary so requests, shall be delivered to Beneficiary. Guarantor will, and Beneficiary is hereby authorized, in the name of Guarantor from time to time to execute and file financing statements and continuation statements and execute such other documents and take such other action as Beneficiary deems necessary or appropriate to perfect, preserve and enforce its rights hereunder.

Section 4.05 Waiver of Authentication of Validity of Certain Acts. Where any one or more of Counterparties are corporations, partnerships, or limited liability companies it is not necessary for Beneficiary to inquire into the power of Counterparties or the officers, directors, partners, managers, members or agents acting or purporting to act in their behalf, and any obligations made or created in reliance upon the professed exercise of such power shall be guaranteed hereunder.

Section 4.06. Authorizations To Beneficiary. Guarantor authorizes Beneficiary, without notice or demand and without affecting its liability hereunder, from time to time to (a) renew, extend, accelerate or otherwise change the time for payment or performance of, or otherwise change the terms of the obligations or any part thereof, including increase or decrease of the rate of interest thereon; (b) take and hold security for the payment or performance of this Guarantee or the obligations guaranteed, and exchange, enforce, waive and release any such security; (c) apply such security and direct the order or manner of sale thereof, including a non-judicial sale permitted by the terms of the controlling security agreement or deed of trust, as Beneficiary in its discretion may determine; and (d) release or substitute any one or more of the endorsers or guarantors of any obligations. Beneficiary may without notice assign this Guarantee in whole or in part.

QUALITY ASSURANCE PROGRAM

Seller shall implement a Quality Assurance (“Q/A”) Program to ensure that the operation of each Facility fulfills the requirements of this Agreement. The Q/A Program shall provide assurance that purchasing, manufacturing, shipping, storage, and examination of all equipment, materials, services and maintenance of each Facility will comply with the requirements of this Agreement, all applicable Requirements of Law and the manufacturers or suppliers requirements for successful operation of the Facility.

Quality at Seller

Seller believes that quality is the unit of measure for assessing fulfillment of project goals. A quality project meets or exceeds the contract requirements and accepted standards of professional and industry practice. Furthermore, high quality projects are those that address client and societal needs more successfully than “low” quality projects. While this may seem like a straightforward definition, the process to ensure quality is much more involved and includes quality management, quality planning, quality control, quality assurance, a quality system, and total quality management.

“Quality assurance” refers to a process that reduces the potential for error throughout the phases of a project. On projects with a Q/A Program, the chances of producing a poor quality deliverable are substantially reduced. Quality control procedures are an integral part of quality assurance. Historically, industry has used the term “quality control” to indicate a checking procedure for verifying the quality of deliverables. This checking commonly occurs at the end of the process, long after an error may have been made and compounded by subsequent work. While quality control checks at the end of a project are an essential exercise, scheduled periodic reviews at each phase are integral to Seller’s Q/A Program. In addition, quality maintenance which meet or exceed manufacturers’ or suppliers’ requirements and best industry practices must be an integral part of Seller’s Q/A Program.

The Quality Management Process

The surest way to achieve satisfactory quality is to adhere to a proven quality process. The term “quality” most accurately refers to a project’s ability to satisfy needs when considered as a whole and each part of the process meets or exceeds the standards of Prudent Utility Practices.

Seller project management team is responsible for proactively planning and directing the quality of the work process, services, and deliverables. Seller’s project management team utilizes a written maintenance manual for each Facility for the duration of the commercial operation that complies with the maintenance manuals of the manufacturers and suppliers from whom the Seller has purchased equipment or material and best industry practices.

“Guaranteed Generation” means, for each Contract Year, the result of the following equation:

Guaranteed Generation (in MWh) =

Where:

j =

each Facility that has achieved Commercial Operation or Delivery Commencement, as applicable, as of the end of such Contract Year;

n =

the total number of Facilities that have achieved Commercial Operation or Delivery Commencement, as applicable, as of the end of such Contract Year;

A =

Facility Net Capacity for Facility “j”;

B =

the number of days in such Contract Year occurring after Facility “j” achieved Commercial Operation or Delivery Commencement, as applicable;

C =

the total number of days in such Contract Year;

D =

8,760 hours;

	E =	ninety percent (90%); and.

	∑ =	summation of n Facilities.

J-1

“Maximum Generation” means (i) for each hour, the product of the Project Net Capacity for such hour, expressed in MW, and one hundred fifty percent (150%); and (ii) for each Contract Year, the result of the following equation, provided that such result shall not exceed 1,620,600 MWh unless mutually agreed upon by the Parties:

Maximum Generation (in MWh) =

Where:

j =

each Facility that has achieved Commercial Operation or Delivery Commencement, as applicable, as of the end of such Contract Year;

n =

the total number of Facilities that have achieved Commercial Operation or Delivery Commencement, as applicable, as of the end of such Contract Year;

A =

Within thirty (30) days after the last Facility achieves Commercial Operation or Delivery Commencement, as applicable, hereunder, the Parties will administratively update this Appendix J to replace the formulas for Guaranteed Generation and Maximum Generation for each Contract Year with a table substantially in the form set forth below, which specifies the Guaranteed Generation and Maximum Generation for each Contract Year. For purposes of populating such table, (i) the Guaranteed Generation and Maximum Generation for the Contract Year following the Contract Year in which the last Facility achieves Commercial Operation or Delivery Commencement, as applicable, hereunder will be established based on the formulas set forth above in this Appendix J, and (ii) the Guaranteed Generation and Maximum Generation for each Contract Year thereafter will be equal to 99.5% of the value for the prior Contract Year. An example of this calculation and the resulting table is set forth in Attachment 1 to this Appendix J.

NONDISCRIMINATION ● EQUAL EMPLOYMENT PRACTICES CONSTRUCTION & NON-CONSTRUCTION CONTRACTOR

Los Angeles Administrative Code (LAAC), Division 10, Chapter 1, Article 1, Section 10.8 stipulates that the City of Los Angeles, in letting and awarding contracts for the provision to it or on its behalf of goods or services of any kind or nature, intends to deal only with those contractors that comply with the non-discrimination and Affirmative Action provisions of the laws of the United States of America, the State of California and the City of Los Angeles. The City and each of its awarding authorities shall therefore require that any person, firm, corporation, partnership or combination thereof, that contracts with the City for services, materials or supplies, shall not discriminate in any of its hiring or employment practices, shall comply with all provisions pertaining to nondiscrimination in hiring and employment, and shall require Affirmative Action Programs in contracts in accordance with the provisions of the LAAC. The awarding authority and/or Office of Contract Compliance of the Department of Public Works shall monitor and inspect the activities of each such contractor to determine that they are in compliance with the provisions of this chapter.

I. Los Angeles Administrative Code Section 10.8.2 All Contracts: Non-discrimination Clause

Notwithstanding any other provision of any ordinance of the City of Los Angeles to the contrary, every contract which is let, awarded or entered into with or on behalf of the City of Los Angeles, shall contain by insertion therein a provision obligating the contractor in the performance of such contract not to discriminate in his or her employment practices against any employee or applicant for employment because of the applicant’s race, religion, national origin, ancestry, sex, sexual orientation, age, disability, marital status, domestic partner status, or medical condition. All contractors who enter into such contracts with the City shall include a like provision in all subcontracts awarded for work to be performed under the contract with the City. Failure of the contractor to comply with this requirement or to obtain the compliance of its subcontractors with such obligations shall subject the contractor to the imposition of any and all sanctions allowed by law, including but not limited to termination of the contractor’s contract with the City.

II. Los Angeles Administrative Code Section 10.8.3. Equal Employment Practices Provisions

Every non-construction contract with or on behalf of the City of Los Angeles for which the consideration is $1,000 or more, and every construction contract for which the consideration is $1,000 or more, shall contain the following provisions, which shall be designated as the EQUAL EMPLOYMENT PRACTICES provision of such contract:

A. During the performance of this contract, the contractor agrees and represents that it will provide equal employment practices and the contractor and each subcontractor hereunder will ensure that in his or her employment practices persons are employed and employees are treated equally and without regard to or because of race, religion, ancestry, national origin, sex, sexual orientation, age, disability, marital status or medical condition.

1. This provision applies to work or service performed or materials manufactured or assembled in the United States.

2. Nothing in this section shall require or prohibit the establishment of new classifications of employees in any given craft, work or service category.

3. The contractor agrees to post a copy of Paragraph A hereof in conspicuous places at its place of business available to employees and applicants for employment.

B. The contractor will, in all solicitations or advertisements for employees placed by or on behalf of the contractor, state that all qualified applicants will receive consideration for employment without regard to their race, religion, ancestry, national origin, sex, sexual orientation, age, disability, marital status or medical condition.

C. As part of the City’s supplier registration process, and/or at the request of the awarding authority, or the Board of Public Works, Office of Contract Compliance, the contractor shall certify in the specified format that he or she has not discriminated in the performance of City contracts against any employee or applicant for employment on the basis or because of race, religion, national origin, ancestry, sex, sexual orientation, age, disability, marital status or medical condition.

D. The contractor shall permit access to and may be required to provide certified copies of all of his or her records pertaining to employment and to employment practices by the awarding authority or the Office of Contract Compliance for the purpose of investigation to ascertain compliance with the Equal Employment Practices provisions of City contracts. On their or either of their request the contractor shall provide evidence that he or she has or will comply therewith.

E. The failure of any contractor to comply with the Equal Employment Practices provisions of this contract may be deemed to be a material breach of City contracts. Such failure shall only be established upon a finding to that effect by the awarding authority, on the basis of its own investigation or that of the Board of Public Works, Office of Contract Compliance. No such finding shall be made or penalties assessed except upon a full and fair hearing after notice and an opportunity to be heard has been given to the contractor.

2 of 2

F. Upon a finding duly made that the contractor has failed to comply with the Equal Employment Practices provisions of a City contract, the contract may be forthwith canceled, terminated or suspended, in whole or in part, by the awarding authority, and all monies due or to become due hereunder may be forwarded to and retained by the City of Los Angeles. In addition thereto, such failure to comply may be the basis for a determination by the awarding authority or the Board of Public Works that the said contractor is an irresponsible bidder or proposer pursuant to the provisions of Section 371 of the Charter of the City of Los Angeles. In the event of such a determination, such contractor shall be disqualified from being awarded a contract with the City of Los Angeles for a period of two years, or until the contractor shall establish and carry out a program in conformance with the provisions hereof.

G. Notwithstanding any other provision of this contract, the City of Los Angeles shall have any and all other remedies at law or in equity for any breach hereof.

H. The Board of Public Works shall promulgate rules and regulations through the Office of Contract Compliance, and provide necessary forms and required language to the awarding authorities to be included in City Request for Bids or Request for Proposal packages or in supplier registration requirements for the implementation of the Equal Employment Practices provisions of this contract, and such rules and regulations and forms shall, so far as practicable, be similar to those adopted in applicable Federal Executive orders. No other rules, regulations or forms may be used by an awarding authority of the City to accomplish the contract compliance program.

I. Nothing contained in this contract shall be construed in any manner so as to require or permit any act which is prohibited by law.

J. At the time a supplier registers to do business with the City, or when an individual bid or proposal is submitted, the contractor shall agree to adhere to the Equal Employment Practices specified herein during the performance or conduct of City Contracts.

K. Equal Employment Practices shall, without limitation as to the subject or nature of employment activity, be concerned with such employment practices as:

Hiring practices;

Apprenticeships where such approved programs are functioning, and other on-the-job training for non-apprenticeable occupations;

Training and promotional opportunities; and

Reasonable accommodations for persons with disabilities.

L. All contractors subject to the provisions of this section shall include a like provision in all subcontracts awarded for work to be performed under the contract with the City and shall impose the same obligations, including but not limited to filing and reporting obligations, on the subcontractors as are applicable to the contractor. Failure of the contractor to comply with this requirement or to obtain the compliance of its subcontractors with all such obligations shall subject the contractor to the imposition of any and all sanctions allowed by law, including but not limited to termination of the contractor’s contract with the City.

•

Every non-construction contract of $100,000 or more;

Every construction contract of $5,000 or more.

Purpose - An affirmative action program is a management tool designed to ensure equal employment opportunity. A central premise underlying affirmative action is that, absent discrimination, over time a contractor's workforce, generally, will reflect the gender, racial and ethnic profile of the available labor pools. Therefore, as part of its affirmative action program, a contractor monitors and examines its employment decisions and compensation systems to ensure equal employment practices, and takes steps to correct underutilization of women and minorities.

Contractors are subject to all provisions contained in LAAC Section 10.8.4 et seq. which can be found at ▇▇▇▇://▇▇▇.▇▇▇▇▇▇.▇▇▇. The excerpts below are provided to serve as a starting point for satisfying these requirements:

LAAC Section 10.8.4 (B) The Contractor will, in all solicitations or advertisements for employees placed by or on behalf of the contractor, state that all qualified applicants will receive consideration for employment without regard to their race, religion, ancestry, national origin, sex, sexual orientation, age, disability, marital status or medical condition.

LAAC Section 10.8.4(K) The plan shall be subject to approval by the Office of Contract Compliance prior to award of the contract.

LAAC Section 10.8.4(M) The Affirmative Action Plan required to be submitted shall, without limitation as to the subject or nature of employment activity, be concerned with such employment practices as:

Apprenticeship where approved programs are functioning, and other on-the-job training for non- apprenticeable occupations;

Classroom preparation for the job when not apprenticeable;

Pre-apprenticeship education and preparation;

Upgrading training and opportunities;

Encouraging the use of contractors, subcontractors, and suppliers of all racial and ethnic groups, provided, however that any contract subject to this ordinance shall require the contractor, subcontractor or supplier to provide not less than the prevailing wage;

The entry of qualified women, minority and all other journeymen into the industry; and

The provision of needed supplies or job conditions to permit persons with disabilities to be employed, and minimize the impact of any disability.

LAAC Section 10.8.4(Q) All contractors subject to the provisions of the section shall include a like provision in all subcontracts awarded for work to be performed under the contract with the City and shall impose the same obligations, including but not limited to filing and reporting obligations, on the subcontractors as are applicable to the contractor.

The contractor shall:

(a)

Recruit and make efforts to obtain such employees.

(b)

Continually evaluate personnel practices to assure that hiring, upgrading, promotions, transfers, demotions and layoffs are made in a nondiscriminatory manner so as to achieve and maintain a diverse work force.

(c)

(d)

Maintain such records as are necessary to determine compliance with equal employment and affirmative action obligations, and make such records available to City, State and Federal authorities upon request.

CITY OF LOS ANGELES

CONTRACTOR CODE OF CONDUCT

The City of Los Angeles has long supported the premise that employers should fairly compensate employees, that the health and safety of workers should be protected, and that no form of discrimination or abuse should be tolerated. Experience indicates that laws and regulations designed to safeguard basic tenets of ethical business practices are disregarded in some workplaces, commonly referred to as “sweatshops.”

In its role as a market participant that procures equipment, goods, materials and supplies, the City seeks to protect its interests by assuring that the integrity of the City’s procurement process is not undermined by contractors who engage in sweatshop practices and other employment practices abhorrent to the City. When the City inadvertently contracts with these contractors, the City’s ethical contractors are placed at a distinct competitive disadvantage. Many times ethical contractors are underbid by unscrupulous contractors in competition for City contracts. These ethical contractors may be dissuaded from participating in future procurement contracts.

The City’s proprietary contracting interests are served by doing business with contractors who make a good faith effort to ensure that they and their subcontractors shun sweatshop practices and adhere to workplace and wage laws. Seeking to protect these municipal interests, the City requires that all contractors subject to the Sweat-free Procurement Ordinance certify that they and, to the best of their knowledge, their subcontractors will comply with the City’s Contractor Code of Conduct and to promise the following:

(a)	To comply with all applicable wage, health, labor, environmental and safety laws, legal guarantees of freedom of association, building and fire codes, and laws and ordinances relating to workplace and employment discrimination.

(b)

To comply with all human and labor rights and labor obligations that are imposed by treaty or law on the country in which the equipment, supplies, goods or materials are made or assembled, including but not limited to abusive forms of child labor, slave labor, convict or forced labor, or sweatshop labor.

(c)	To take good faith measures to ensure, to the best of the contractor’s knowledge, that the contractor’s subcontractors also comply with the City’s Contractor Code of Conduct.

(d)

To pay employees working on contracts for garments, uniforms, foot apparel, and related accessories a procurement living wage, meaning for domestic manufacturers a base hourly wage adjusted annually to the amount required to produce, for 2,080 hours worked, an annual income equal to or greater than the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services most recent poverty guideline for a family of three plus an additional 20 percent of the wage level paid either as hourly wages or health benefits. For manufacturing operations in countries other than the United States, a procurement living wage which is comparable to the wage for domestic manufacturers as defined above, adjusted to reflect the country’s level of economic development by using the World Bank’s Gross National Income Per Capita Purchasing Power index.

CERTIFICATION UNDER PENALTY OF PERJURY

I certify under penalty of perjury under the laws of the State of California that I have read and understood the City’s Contractor Code of Conduct and agree to comply with its requirements.

IRAN CONTRACTING ACT OF 2010 COMPLIANCE AFFIDAVIT

(California Public Contract Code Sections 2200-2208)

The California Legislature adopted the Iran Contracting Act of 2010 to respond to policies of Iran in a uniform fashion (PCC § 2201(q)). The Iran Contracting Act prohibits bidders engaged in investment activities in Iran from bidding on, submitting proposals for, or entering into or renewing contracts with public entities for goods and services of one million dollars ($1,000,000) or more (PCC § 2203(a)). A bidder who “engages in investment activities in Iran” is defined as either:

A bidder providing goods or services of twenty million dollars ($20,000,000) or more in the energy sector of Iran, including provision of oil or liquefied natural gas tankers, or products used to construct or maintain pipelines used to transport oil or liquefied natural gas, for the energy sector of Iran; or

A bidder that is a financial institution (as that term is defined in 50 U.S.C. § 1701) that extends twenty million dollars ($20,000,000) or more in credit to another person, for 45 days or more, if that person will use the credit to provide goods or services in the energy sector in Iran and is identified on a list created by the California Department of General Services (DGS) pursuant to PCC § 2203(b) as a person engaging in the investment activities in Iran.

The bidder shall certify that at the time of submitting a bid for new contract or renewal of an existing contract, he or she is not identified on the DGS list of ineligible businesses or persons and that the bidder is not engaged in investment activities in Iran in violation of the Iran Contracting Act of 2010.

California law establishes penalties for providing false certifications, including civil penalties equal to the greater of $250,000 or twice the amount of the contract for which the false certification was made; contract termination; and three-year ineligibility to bid on contracts (PCC § 2205).

To comply with the Iran Contracting Act of 2010, the bidder shall complete and sign ONE of the options shown below.

OPTION #1: CERTIFICATION

I, the official named below, certify that I am duly authorized to execute this certification on behalf of the bidder or financial institution identified below, and that the bidder or financial institution identified below is not on the current DGS list of persons engaged in investment activities in Iran and is not a financial institution extending twenty million dollars ($20,000,000) or more in credit to another person or vendor, for 45 days or more, if that other person or vendor will use the credit to provide goods or services in the energy sector in Iran and is identified on the current DSG list of persons engaged in investment activities in Iran.

OPTION #2: EXEMPTION

Pursuant to PCC § 2203(c) and (d), a public entity may permit a bidder or financial institution engaged in investment activities in Iran, on a case-by-case basis, to be eligible for, or to bid on, submit a proposal for, or enter into, or renew, a contract for goods and services. If the bidder or financial institution identified below has obtained an exemption from the certification requirement under the Iran Contracting Act of 2010, the bidder or financial institution shall complete and sign below and attach documentation demonstrating the exemption approval.

BETWEEN SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA PUBLIC POWER AUTHORITY

AND ONGP LLC

FORM OF LETTER AGREEMENT

[Date]

Attn:

Re: Power Purchase Agreement, dated as of [DATE], between Southern California Public Power Authority and ONGP LLC (the “PPA”)

Dear Sir or Madam:

This Letter Agreement (the “Letter Agreement”) is being sent to you pursuant to Section 2.1(o) of the PPA. Capitalized terms used, but not defined, herein shall have the meanings set forth in the PPA.

Southern California Public Power Authority (“SCPPA”) is entering into the PPA with ONGP LLC (“Seller”) in consideration of the terms and conditions set forth in the PPA and upon the condition that Ormat Nevada Inc. (the “Company”) agrees to take certain actions, and refrain from taking certain other actions, with respect to those Project Companies that are not at the time under the Control of Seller (the “Indicated Project Companies”), as set forth below. The rights and obligations of Seller under the PPA will confer benefits on the Company and, therefore, the Company is willing to enter into this Letter Agreement. As used in this Letter Agreement "Control" means the possession, directly or indirectly, of the power to direct or cause the direction of management, policies or activities of the Indicated Project Companies, whether through ownership of voting securities, by contract or otherwise, as necessary or appropriate to enable Seller to perform and fulfill its obligations under the PPA. Accordingly, in consideration of the foregoing and of the mutual agreements hereinafter set forth, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the Company, Seller, and SCPPA (together, the “Parties”), intending to be legally bound, hereby agree as follows:

1. Obligation to Transfer to Seller. The Indicated Project Companies are initially comprised of Steamboat Hills, LLC; Steamboat Development, LLC; and ▇▇▇▇▇ Power Partners. Each of these Project Companies will cease to be an Indicated Project Company upon the earlier to occur of (a) the date on which Seller obtains Control of such Project Company, or (b) the date on which such Project Company ceases to be a Project Company under the PPA. Subject to Section 3.6 of the PPA, the Company will transfer Control of each Indicated Project Company to Seller by the corresponding Milestone Date therefor in the PPA; provided that Company shall deliver notice to SCPPA of such transfer of Control within a reasonable time after the transfer, but in no event later than thirty (30) days after the date of the transfer or the Milestone Date therefor in the PPA, whichever occurs first.

M-1

2. Transfer Restrictions. Each Indicated Project Company shall be under the Control of the Company until it ceases to be an Indicated Project Company. The Company shall not engage in a transaction or series of transactions that would result in a Change in Control of an Indicated Project Company without the prior written consent of SCPPA, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. The Company shall provide SCPPA with sixty (60) days’ prior written notice of any proposed Change in Control of an Indicated Project Company. In addition, except as set forth in or permitted by Section 14.7 of the PPA, neither the Company nor any Indicated Project Company shall sell or transfer all or any portion of a Facility owned by an Indicated Project Company to any Person, without the prior written consent of Buyer, which consent shall not be withheld, conditioned or delayed unreasonably. Any purported sale or transfer in violation of the prior sentence shall be null and void and of no force or effect.

3. Further Assurances. Seller, from time to time, and as necessary or appropriate to fulfill its obligations under the PPA, shall instruct the Company to exercise the Company’s Control over an Indicated Project Company in furtherance of Seller’s performance of its obligations under the PPA, and the Company shall thereupon exercise its Control over such Indicated Project Company in accordance with Seller’s instructions, except to the extent prohibited by the Indenture.

4. Injunctive Relief. The Parties acknowledge and agree that irreparable damage would occur in the event any of the provisions of this Letter Agreement were not performed in accordance with the terms hereof, that money damages would not be a sufficient remedy for any breach of this Letter Agreement, and that SCPPA shall be entitled, without the requirement of posting a bond or other security, to specific performance and injunctive or other equitable relief as a remedy for any such breach. Such remedy shall not be deemed to be the exclusive remedy for breach of this Letter Agreement but shall be in addition to all other remedies available to SCPPA under the PPA, or at law or equity.

5. Termination. This Letter Agreement shall terminate upon the earlier to occur of the following: (a) termination of the PPA, or (b) the date on which there are no longer any Indicated Project Companies hereunder.

6. Miscellaneous. This Letter Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts and by the different Parties hereto on separate counterparts, each of which counterparts, when so executed and delivered, shall be deemed to be an original, and all of which counterparts, when taken together, shall constitute but one agreement. This Letter Agreement may be executed by facsimile signature and each such facsimile signature shall be treated in all respects as having the same effect as an original signature. This Letter Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of California, without reference to its rules relating to conflict of laws. If any provision of this Letter Agreement is held to be invalid or unenforceable for any reason, the Parties agree to negotiate in good faith an alternative provision that is not invalid or unenforceable and that carries out, as nearly as possible, the intent and purposes of the provision so held to be invalid or unenforceable. Each Party shall take such further actions, as may be reasonably requested by the other Party, that are necessary to effectuate the intention of the terms of this Letter Agreement. This Letter Agreement shall be binding on each Party’s successors and permitted assigns. No Party shall assign this Letter Agreement or its rights hereunder without the prior written consent of each of the other Parties.
