(ii)Member Nonrecourse Deductions attributable to Member Nonrecourse Debt shall be allocated to the Members bearing the Economic Risk of Loss for such Member Nonrecourse Debt as determined under Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-2(b)(4). If more than one Member bears the Economic Risk of Loss for such Member Nonrecourse Debt, the Member Nonrecourse Deductions attributable to such Member Nonrecourse Debt shall be allocated among the Members according to the ratio in which they bear the Economic Risk of Loss. This Section 5.03(b)(ii) is intended to comply with the provisions of Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-2(i) and shall be interpreted consistently therewith.

(iii)Notwithstanding any other provision hereof to the contrary, if there is a net decrease in Minimum Gain for an allocation period (or if there was a net decrease in Minimum Gain for a prior allocation period and the Company did not have sufficient amounts of income and gain during prior periods to allocate among the Members under this Section 5.03(b)(iii)), items of income and gain shall be allocated to each Member in an amount equal to such Member’s share of the net decrease in such Minimum Gain (as determined pursuant to Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-2(g)(2)). This Section 5.03(b)(iii) is intended to constitute a minimum gain chargeback under Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-2(f) and shall be interpreted consistently therewith.

(iv)Notwithstanding any provision hereof to the contrary except Section 5.03(b)(iii) (dealing with Minimum Gain), if there is a net decrease in Member Nonrecourse Debt Minimum Gain for an allocation period (or if there was a net decrease in Member Nonrecourse Debt Minimum Gain for a prior allocation period and the Company did not have sufficient amounts of income and gain during prior periods to allocate among the Members under this Section 5.03(b)(iv)), items of income and gain shall be allocated to each Member in an amount equal to such Member’s share of the net decrease in Member Nonrecourse Debt Minimum Gain (as determined pursuant to Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-2(i)(4)). This Section 5.03(b)(iv) is intended to constitute a partner nonrecourse debt minimum gain chargeback under Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-2(i)(4) and shall be interpreted consistently therewith.

(v)Notwithstanding any provision hereof to the contrary except Section 5.03(b)(i) and Section 5.03(b)(ii), no losses or other items of expense shall be allocated to any Member to the extent that such allocation would cause such Member to have a deficit Capital Account balance (or increase any existing deficit Capital Account balance) at the end of the allocation period in excess of the amount such Member is required to restore pursuant to Section 12.02(a)(iv). All losses and other items expense in

excess of the limitation set forth in this Section 5.03(b)(v) shall be allocated to the Members who do not have a deficit Capital Account balances in excess of the amount such Member is required to restore pursuant to Section 12.02(a)(iv) in proportion to their relative positive Capital Accounts but only to the extent that such losses and other items of expense do not cause any such Member to have a deficit Capital Account balance in excess of the amount such Member is required to restore pursuant to Section 12.02(a)(iv).

(vi)If any Member unexpectedly receives any adjustments, allocations or distributions described in Treasury Regulations Sections 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d)(4), (5), or (6) resulting in a Capital Account deficit for such Member in excess of the amount such Member is required to restore pursuant to Section 12.02(a)(iv), items of income and gain will be specially allocated to such Member in any amount and manner sufficient to eliminate, to the extent required by the Treasury Regulations, such Capital Account deficit of the Member as quickly as possible; provided, however, that an allocation pursuant to this Section 5.03(b)(vi) shall be made only if and to the extent that such Member would have a deficit Capital Account balance in excess of the amount such Member is required to restore pursuant to Section 12.02(a)(iv) after all other allocations provided for in this Article 5 have been tentatively made as if this Section 5.03(b)(vi) were not in this Agreement. The items of income or gain to be allocated will be determined in accordance with Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d). This subsection (vi) is intended to comply with Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d) and will be applied and interpreted in accordance with such Treasury Regulations.

(vii)To the extent an adjustment to the adjusted tax basis of any Company asset pursuant to Code Sections 734(b) or 743(b) is required to be taken into account in determining the Capital Accounts of the Members under Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(m), the amount of such adjustment to the Capital Accounts will be treated as an item of gain (if the adjustment increases the basis of the asset) or loss (if the adjustment decreases such basis), and such gain or loss will be specially allocated among the Members in a manner consistent with the manner in which their Capital Accounts are required to be adjusted pursuant to Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(m).

(viii)Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, any and all state Tax credits of the Company that may be claimed with respect to the output of any direct or indirect asset of a Tax Equity Entity or otherwise shall be allocated to, and solely for the account of, NEP Member.

(ix)The allocations set forth in Section 5.03(b)(i) through Section 5.03(b)(viii) (the “Regulatory Allocations”) are intended to comply with certain requirements of Treasury Regulation Sections 1.704-1(b) and 1.704-2. The Regulatory Allocations may not be consistent with the manner in which the Members intend to distribute the cash of the Company or allocate Company income or loss. Accordingly, the Managing Member is hereby authorized to allocate items of income, gain, loss, and deduction to the Members so as to prevent the Regulatory Allocations from distorting the manner in which cash is distributed among the Members. In general, the Members anticipate that this will be accomplished by specially allocating other items of income,

gain, loss and deduction to the Members so that, to the extent possible, the net amount of such allocations and the Regulatory Allocations to the Members shall be equal to the net amount that would have been allocated among the Members if the Regulatory Allocations had not occurred. However, the Managing Member shall have discretion to accomplish this result in any reasonable manner, and in exercising this discretion, the Managing Member shall take into account future Regulatory Allocations under Section 5.03(b) that, although not yet made, are likely to offset other Regulatory Allocations previously made thereunder.

(c)To the maximum extent possible, except as otherwise provided in this Section 5.03(c), all items of Company income, gain, loss, and deduction for federal income Tax purposes shall be allocated among the Members for such purposes in the same manner in which the corresponding items computed for Capital Account purposes are allocated pursuant to Section 5.03(a) and Section 5.03(b). Income, gain, loss, and deduction with respect to property contributed to the Company by a Member or revalued pursuant to clause (b) of the definition of “Book Value” shall be allocated among the Members in a manner that seeks to eliminate, by use of the “remedial method” pursuant to Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-3(d), the variation between the adjusted Tax basis of such property and its Book Value as required by Section 704(c) of the Code and Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-1(b)(4)(i); provided that, for purposes of allocations under the “remedial method,” the Company shall apply the “remedial method” using an “aggregate” theory of partnerships for U.S. federal income tax purposes for any Subsidiary of the Company or Non-Controlled Entity that is classified as a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes, and, as such, the Company shall be treated as if it directly owned a proportionate interest in the assets of any such Subsidiary or Non-Controlled Entity for this purpose.

5.04 Varying Interests. All items of income, gain, loss, deduction, or credit shall be allocated, and all distributions shall be made, to the Persons shown on the records of the Company to have been Members as of the last day of the period for which the allocation or distribution is to be made. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event a Member Disposes of a Membership Interest during a Fiscal Year, the Net Profits or Net Loss of the Company, and each item of income, gain, loss, credit, and deduction, allocated to such Member and its Assignee for such Fiscal Year or other applicable period will be made between such Member and its Assignee in accordance with Section 706 of the Code using any convention permitted by Section 706 of the Code and selected by the Managing Member.

5.05 Amounts Withheld. The Company is authorized to withhold from payments and distributions to the Members and to pay over to any federal, state, or local Governmental Authority any amounts required to be so withheld pursuant to the Code or any provisions of any other applicable Law and shall allocate such amounts to the Members with respect to which such amounts were withheld. All amounts withheld pursuant to the Code or any provisions of any other applicable Law with respect to any payment, distribution, or allocation to the Company or the Members shall, to the extent properly remitted to the appropriate Governmental Authority, be treated for all purposes under this Agreement as amounts paid or distributed pursuant to this Article 5 to the Members with respect to which such amount was withheld. To the extent operation of the foregoing provisions of this Section 5.05 would create a negative balance in a Member’s Capital Account (or increase the amount by which such Capital Account balance is

negative), such Member shall indemnify the other Members and the Company for such withholding.

5.06 Other Payments.

(a)Any and all Tax Equity Proceeds, Pre-Effective Date Excess Insurance Proceeds, Subcontractor Delay Liquidated Damages, amounts in respect of Network Upgrades, Yellow Pine II Transmission Proceeds, APA Post-Closing Adjustment Payments, Alta Wind Litigation Proceeds, and Loss Reduction Amounts (but only to the extent attributable to Loss Reduction Activities occurring prior to the Initial Closing), in each case, received by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries (including pursuant to a distribution or other payment from any Non-Controlled Entity) shall be paid in immediately available funds to NEP Member promptly following receipt thereof by the Company or its applicable Subsidiary (and the payment of such amounts shall not constitute a distribution pursuant to Section 5.01, Section 5.02, or otherwise for any purposes of the Act, nor shall there be any adjustment to NEP Member’s Capital Account in respect of any such payment, pursuant to Section 4.08 or otherwise).

(b)The Members hereby acknowledge and agree that (i) the Operating Reserve is being funded and maintained by NEECH during the Operating Reserve Period for the benefit of the Emerald Breeze Project Companies, (ii) upon expiration of the Operating Reserve Period, Emerald Breeze Class A Holdings shall be obligated to withdraw and pay to NEECH, and NEECH shall be entitled to receive, the Operating Reserve Ending Balance (as defined in the Credit Support Agreement), and none of the Members shall have any right in or to the Operating Reserve (or any payment with respect to any portion thereof), (iii) commencing on January 1, 2033, NEECH shall be entitled to receive payment of the Excess Unreimbursed Amount, on the terms and conditions set forth in the Credit Support Agreement and the Emerald Breeze Holdings LLC Agreement, including (A) if the Call Option End Date (as defined in the Credit Support Agreement) shall have occurred, from and after January 1, 2032, until June 30, 2033, payment from the Company of the 49% NEECH Reimbursement Amount, pursuant to the Credit Support Agreement and the Emerald Breeze Holdings LLC Agreement, and (B) from and after July 1, 2033, payment from Emerald Breeze Class A Holdings of the Excess Unreimbursed Amount, or the Remaining Excess Unreimbursed Amount (as defined in the Credit Support Agreement), as applicable, pursuant to the Credit Support Agreement and the Emerald Breeze Holdings LLC Agreement, which payments, when and as made, shall result in a reduction of the amount of cash and Cash Equivalents that otherwise would have been distributed to Members as Available Cash (and, for the avoidance of doubt, no such payment shall constitute, or be treated as, a distribution pursuant to Section 5.01, Section 5.02, or otherwise for any purposes of the Act, nor shall there be any adjustment to any Member’s Capital Account in respect of any such payment, pursuant to Section 4.08 or otherwise).

5.07 Purchase Price Offset.

(a)If it is determined pursuant to Section 2.16(h) of the Purchase Agreement that there is an Excess Purchase Price Amount, then all distributions payable thereafter to NEP Member pursuant to Section 5.01, Section 5.02, or Section 12.02 shall be subject to offset by the Company (the “Class B Purchase Price Return Offset”) in an aggregate amount equal to the Excess Purchase Price Amount. The Excess Purchase Price Amount shall be withheld from

payment of all such distributions to NEP Member and shall be promptly paid by the Company to the Class B Members on the date of each such distribution payment in satisfaction of the payment of such Excess Purchase Price Amount before any distributions on Class A Units are paid to the holders of Class A Units pursuant to Section 5.01, Section 5.02, or Section 12.02, until the aggregate amount withheld from distributions to NEP Member pursuant to this Section 5.07(a) equals the Excess Purchase Price Amount. NEP Member hereby consents to such Class B Purchase Price Return Offset and hereby waives any right to receive payment of any distributions subject to such Class B Purchase Price Return Offset in an amount equal to the Excess Purchase Price Amount. The aggregate amount withheld and paid in accordance with this Section 5.07(a) shall be treated as having been distributed to the Class A Members for all purposes of this Agreement, including the calculation of Capital Accounts under Section 4.08.

(b)If it is determined pursuant to Section 2.16(h) of the Purchase Agreement that there is a Deficit Purchase Price Amount, then all distributions payable thereafter to the Class B Members (other than NEP Class B Parties) pursuant to Section 5.01, Section 5.02, or Section 12.02 shall be subject to offset by the Company (the “Deficit Class B Purchase Price Offset”) in an aggregate amount equal to the Deficit Purchase Price Amount. Unless the Class B Members have previously paid, or caused to be paid, in full such Deficit Purchase Price Amount in cash to NEP Member prior to the first Distribution Date following the final determination of a Deficit Purchase Price Amount pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, the Deficit Purchase Price Amount shall be withheld from payment of all distributions to the Class B Members (other than NEP Class B Parties) and shall be promptly paid by the Company to NEP Member on the applicable Distribution Date in satisfaction of the payment of such Deficit Purchase Price Amount before any distributions on Class B Units pursuant to Section 5.01, Section 5.02, or Section 12.02 may be paid to such holders of Class B Units until the aggregate amount withheld from distributions to Class B Members pursuant to this Section 5.07(b) equals the Deficit Purchase Price Amount; provided that, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 5.07(b), prior to any Class B Permitted Loan Financing Payment in Full, the Deficit Purchase Price Amount shall not be withheld from distributions to such Class B Members and instead shall be paid to NEP Member to the extent that funds are available under Section 2.21(e)(ii) or Section 2.21(f)(ii) of the Credit Agreement and until the aggregate amount paid equals the Deficit Purchase Price Amount (or, if the Indebtedness under the Credit Agreement has been refinanced by any other Class B Permitted Loan Financing, the Deficit Purchase Price Amount shall be paid in a substantially equivalent priority order as provided for in the documentation for such Class B Permitted Loan Financing). The Class B Members hereby consent to such Deficit Class B Purchase Price Offset and hereby waive, subject to the proviso in the immediately preceding sentence, any right to receive any Deficit Purchase Price Amount or payment of any distributions subject to such Deficit Class B Purchase Price Offset in an amount equal to the Deficit Purchase Price Amount. The aggregate amount withheld (if applicable) and paid in accordance with this Section 5.07(b) shall be treated as having been distributed to the Class B Members for all purposes of this Agreement, including the calculation of Capital Accounts under Section 4.08.

ARTICLE 6
MANAGEMENT

6.01 Management by Managing Member.

(a)The business and affairs of the Company shall be managed by the Managing Member, and NEP Member is hereby appointed by the Members as the Managing Member of the Company. The Class A Member(s) shall have the sole right to designate a successor Managing Member from time to time; provided that, in the event that there is more than one Class A Member, any such successor Managing Member shall be selected by the holders of a majority of the outstanding Class A Units; provided, further, that any Person appointed to serve as successor Managing Member must be an Affiliate of NEP and must be a Member of the Company. It is the intent of the Members that the Managing Member of the Company be deemed to be the sole “manager” of the Company (as defined in Section 18-101(12) of the Act) for all purposes under the Act, subject to the provisions of Section 6.02. At no time shall the Company have any board of managers or board of directors.

(b)Except to the extent expressly provided otherwise in the definitions of “Guaranteed Tax Credit Dispute,” “Loss Reduction Activity,” “Triggering Event Notice” and “VWAP,” and Section 3.06, Section 3.08(b)(vii), Section 4.04(d), Section 4.05(b), Section 6.01, Section 6.03, Section 6.04, Section 7.01(a), Section 7.05(a), Section 7.09, Section 8.03, Section 10.01, Section 12.01(a), and Section 13.04, the Managing Member shall have full and exclusive power and authority on behalf of the Company to conduct, direct, and exercise control over all activities of the Company, to manage and administer the business and affairs of the Company, to make all determinations on behalf of the Company or otherwise under this Agreement, and to do or cause to be done any and all acts considered by the Managing Member to be necessary or appropriate to conduct the business of the Company, including the authority to bind the Company in making Contracts and incurring obligations in the Company’s name in the course of the Company’s business, without the need for approval by or any other consent from any other Member.

(c)Except to the extent that a Member is also the Managing Member or authority is delegated from the Managing Member to such Member in writing, no Member will have any authority to bind the Company or to transact any business for the Company. Except for those matters that, pursuant to the express provisions of this Agreement, require the consent or approval of Members, no Member (other than the Managing Member) shall have the right to vote, approve, or consent to any matter whatsoever, including any other matter that otherwise requires approval of Members under the Act, and each Member (other than the Managing Member) hereby waives any and all other voting, approval, and consent rights with respect to the Company, other than those rights expressly provided in this Agreement. The Managing Member may delegate to one or more Persons all or any part of its power, authority, and duties as Managing Member hereunder, including, subject to Section 6.03(p) and Section 6.04, pursuant to any management services agreement the Managing Member or the Company or any of its Subsidiaries may enter into with any Affiliate of the Managing Member or the Company, except for such power and authority to consent to Major Decisions and any other matters expressly requiring a vote by or consent of the Members (other than the Managing Member) pursuant to this Agreement, which power and authority to consent or vote on such matters will be expressly retained by such Members.

6.02 Standard of Care.

(a)Except for those duties expressly set forth in this Agreement, to the fullest extent permitted by Section 18-1101(c) of the Act, no Member (including the Managing Member) shall have any duties or liabilities, including fiduciary duties, to the Company or any other Member, and the provisions of this Agreement, to the extent that they restrict or eliminate the duties and liabilities, including fiduciary duties, of the Managing Member or any other Member otherwise existing at law or in equity, are agreed by the Members to restrict or eliminate to such extent, such duties and liabilities of the Managing Member and such other Members. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing herein shall eliminate or limit (i) the express contractual provisions set forth herein or (ii) the implied contractual covenant of good faith and fair dealing.

(b)Each Member acknowledges its express intent, and agrees with each other Member for the mutual benefit of all the Members, that, except as expressly set forth in this Agreement:

(i)to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law, no Member (including the Managing Member), in its capacity as Member (or in its capacity as the Managing Member, as applicable), nor any of such Member’s (or Managing Member’s) or any of its Affiliates’ respective directors, officers, stockholders, managers, members, partners, Affiliates, employees, Representatives, or agents (collectively, “Member-Associated Parties”), shall have or owe any fiduciary duty to the Company, any other Member, or any other Person in connection with the Company, the business and affairs of the Company and its Subsidiaries, any act, omission, or decision in connection therewith, or any consent or approval given or withheld, or any other action taken, in each case, pursuant to this Agreement; provided, however, that nothing herein shall eliminate the implied contractual covenant of good faith and fair dealing; and

(ii)the provisions of this Section 6.02 will apply for the benefit of each Member (including the Managing Member), and, subject to Section 6.02(d) and the applicable standard set forth in Section 6.03 for granting or withholding any consent or approval with respect to the matters set forth in Section 6.03, no standard of care, duty, or other legal restriction or theory of liability shall limit or modify the right of any Member (including the Managing Member) to vote, or grant or withhold its consent or approval of any matter in the manner determined by such Member in its sole and absolute discretion, with or without cause, subject to such conditions as it shall deem appropriate, and without taking into account the interests of, and without incurring liability to, the Company, any other Member, or any of their respective Member-Associated Parties.

(c)To the maximum extent permitted by applicable Law, each Member hereby releases and forever discharges each of the other Members (including the Managing Member) and the Member-Associated Parties of the other Members, from all liabilities that such other Member (or its Member-Associated Parties) might owe, under the Act or otherwise, to the Company, the releasing Member, or its Affiliates on the ground that any decision of such other Member (including the Managing Member) to grant or withhold any vote, consent, or approval constituted the breach or violation of any standard of care, any fiduciary duty, or any other legal restriction or theory of liability applicable to such other Member or its Member-Associated Parties; provided, however, that nothing herein shall eliminate any Member’s (including the

Managing Member’s) liability for any act or omission that constitutes a bad faith violation of the implied contractual covenant of good faith and fair dealing. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, nothing in this Section 6.02 shall limit or waive any Claims against, Actions, rights to sue, other remedies, or other recourse of the Company, any Member (including the Managing Member), or any other Person may have against any Member (including the Managing Member) for a breach of contract claim relating to such Member’s (including the Managing Member’s) breach of any binding agreement, including any breach of this Agreement.

(d)Notwithstanding the foregoing or any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, whenever the Managing Member makes a determination or takes or declines to take (or causes or permits the Company or a Subsidiary of the Company to take or decline to take or consents to a Non-Controlled Entity to take or decline to take) any other action, in its capacity as Managing Member, as opposed to in its individual capacity, then, unless another express standard is provided for in this Agreement, the Managing Member shall make such determination or take or decline to take (or cause or permit the Company or a Subsidiary of the Company to take or decline to take or consents to a Non-Controlled Entity to take or decline to take) such other action in good faith and shall not be subject to any other or different standards (including fiduciary standards) imposed by this Agreement. A determination or other action or inaction will conclusively be deemed to be in “good faith” for all purposes of this Agreement if the Managing Member, in making such determination or taking or declining to take (or causing or permitting the Company or a Subsidiary of the Company to take or decline to take or consents to a Non-Controlled Entity to take or decline to take) such other action, (i) reasonably believes that the determination or other action or inaction is in the best interests of the Company and its Subsidiaries and (ii) does not take or decline to take (or cause or permit the Company or a Subsidiary of the Company to take or decline to take or consents to a Non-Controlled Entity to take or decline to take) such action with intent to benefit any other business now owned or hereafter acquired by the Managing Member or any of its Affiliates to the detriment of the Company and its Subsidiaries.

(e)Without limiting the foregoing, the Managing Member shall carry out its obligations hereunder in accordance with all applicable Laws and requirements of this Agreement.

6.03 Major Decisions. Except for (i) any action taken to comply with any Material Project Agreement, any Material Contract, the Organizational Documents of Emerald Breeze Holdings or of any Tax Equity Entities, or any Project Financing Documents (collectively, the “Contractual Obligations”), (ii) any Loss Reduction Activity, (iii) any action taken after the Initial Closing relating to the completion of construction of any such Delayed Project or consummation of the Tax Equity Financing thereof, until such time as such Delayed Project achieves Commercial Operation (as such term is defined in the applicable Power Purchase Agreement for the applicable Delayed Project); provided that, for the avoidance of doubt, any such action taken with respect to any of the Delayed Projects shall be subject to the terms and conditions of the Purchase Agreement (including Section 5.01 of the Purchase Agreement); and (iv) the matters set forth on Schedule 6.03, the Company and its Subsidiaries shall not, and the Managing Member shall cause the Company and its Subsidiaries not to, take any action (including by the exercise or non-exercise of the Company’s direct or indirect approval rights in any other entity in which the Company directly or indirectly owns an interest) specified in this Section 6.03 (collectively, the “Major Decisions”) without having first obtained

Class B Member Approval (which consent shall, except to the extent expressly provided below in this Section 6.03, not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned, or delayed):

or electronic communications) and shall, acting in good faith, use their commercially reasonable efforts to resolve such APA/CA Claim Disagreement and, if applicable, to negotiate with NEP Sellco or Assignor (as defined in the Contribution Agreement), as applicable, to reach resolution of such Indemnification Claim; provided, further, that, if, after a period of twenty (20) Business Days, NEP Member and the Class B Member Representative are unable to resolve their APA/CA Claim Disagreement by such methods, then either the NEP Member or the Class B Member Representative may submit such matter to Arbitration for binding resolution in accordance with Section 11.05.

(b)In the event that NEP Member, on behalf of the Company, commences an Action against NEP Sellco or Assignor (as defined in the Contribution Agreement) with respect to an Indemnification Claim, NEP Member shall, subject to the following provisions of this Section 6.04(b), be exclusively entitled to undertake and control the prosecution of such Action and shall prosecute such Action in good faith; provided that NEP Member (i) shall not settle, or enter into any agreement to settle such Indemnification Claim or such Action without Class B Member Approval (not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned, or delayed) and (ii) shall permit the Class B Member Representative to be present at and to participate in any meetings, teleconferences, or other communications between NEP Member, on the one hand, and NEP Sellco or Assignor (as defined in the Contribution Agreement) (or any of their respective Affiliates), on the other hand, with respect to such Indemnification Claim or such Action. NEP Member shall keep the Class B Member Representative informed of the status of such Indemnification Claim and promptly provide the Class B Member Representative with any updates thereto and shall have the right to select counsel and other Representatives, to be retained by the Company, in connection with such Indemnification Claim; provided that such selection of counsel shall be subject to Class B Member Approval (not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned, or delayed). The Company shall be solely responsible for payment of all fees and expenses incurred in prosecuting such Action, including the reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel and other Representatives retained by the Company and shall reimburse and indemnify NEP Member and the Class B Members and the Class B Member Representative for their respective documented out-of-pocket fees, costs, and expenses incurred in connection with any such Indemnification Claim.

(c)In the event that NEP Sellco or Assignor (as defined in the Contribution Agreement) makes any payment in respect of an Indemnification Claim pursuant to and in accordance with the terms and conditions of the ▇▇▇▇/NEP APA or Contribution Agreement (any such payment, an “APA/CA Indemnity Payment”) to NEP Member or any of its Affiliates (other than the Company or one of its Subsidiaries), then, promptly following NEP Member’s (or any such Affiliate’s) receipt of such APA/CA Indemnity Payment, NEP Member shall pay to the Class B Member Representative (on behalf of all Class B Members, for further payment to the Class B Members) the Class B Members’ pro rata portion of such APA/CA Indemnity Payment, which portion shall be determined in accordance with each Member’s respective Unreturned Contribution Percentage.

Subject to Section 6.03(p), the Company may transact business with any Member Affiliated Party, and no Member Affiliated Party shall be restricted in its right to conduct, individually or jointly with others, for its own account any business activities. No Member Affiliated Party shall have any duty or obligation, express or implied, fiduciary or otherwise, to account to, or to share the results or profits of such business activities with, the Company or any Affiliate of any other

(c)The Company:

(i)renounces in advance each and every interest or expectancy it might be considered to have under the Act, at common law, or in any business opportunity, or in any opportunity to participate in any business opportunity, in any business or industry in which any Member Affiliated Party now or in the future engages, which is presented to such Member Affiliated Party or to any present or future partner, member, director, officer, manager, supervisor, employee, agent, or Representative of such Member or any of its Member Affiliated Parties; and

(ii)waives and consents to the elimination of any fiduciary or other duty, including any duty of loyalty, that any Member Affiliated Party might be considered to owe to the Company, at common law or in equity, by reason of such Member’s membership in the Company, to offer to the Company any such business opportunity, or in any such opportunity to participate in any such business opportunity.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this Section 6.08 shall be deemed to impose fiduciary duties on any Member (including the Managing Member) or otherwise modify or limit the standard of care set forth in Section 6.02.

(b)To the fullest extent permitted by Law, the Company shall indemnify and hold harmless each Covered Person from and against any and all Claims in which such Covered Person may be involved, or threatened to be involved, as a party, a witness, or otherwise, arising out of or relating to the Company, its business, assets, properties, Subsidiaries, Non-Controlled Entities, or liabilities or any act or omission performed or omitted by such Covered Person in relation thereto; provided, however, that no Covered Person shall be entitled to indemnification under this Section 6.08(b) with respect to any Claim to the extent (i) resulting from (A) fraud, gross negligence, or the willful misconduct of such Covered Person, (B) any breach of the express provisions of this Agreement, or (C) any bad faith breach of the implied contractual covenant of good faith and fair dealing or (ii) initiated by such Covered Person unless such Claim (or part thereof) (A) was brought to enforce such Person’s rights to indemnification hereunder or (B) was authorized or consented to by the Managing Member in connection with Claims brought against such Covered Person by Persons that are not the Company (or any of its Subsidiaries) or Affiliates of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries. Expenses incurred by a Covered Person in defending any Claim shall be paid by or on behalf of the Company in advance of the final disposition of such Claim upon receipt by the Company of an undertaking by or on behalf of such Covered Person to repay such amount if it shall be ultimately determined that such Covered Person is not entitled to be indemnified by the Company as authorized by this Section 6.08(b).

(c)The Company acknowledges and agrees that the obligation of the Company under this Agreement to indemnify or advance expenses to any Covered Person for the matters covered hereby shall be the primary source of indemnification and advancement for such Covered Person in connection therewith, and any obligation on the part of any other indemnitor under any other agreement to indemnity or advance expenses to such Covered Person shall be secondary to the Company’s obligation and shall be reduced by any amount that such Covered Person may collect as indemnification or advancement from the Company. Subject to the

foregoing, the Company shall be subrogated to the rights of such Covered Person against, and shall be entitled to seek contribution from, any third party, including any insurance company, that is not an Affiliate of any Member (or any insurance policy covering such Member or its Affiliates) to recover the amount of such indemnification (or such portion thereof as to which the Company shall be entitled to contribution) after the Covered Person shall have been fully and completely indemnified (whether pursuant to this Agreement or otherwise) in respect of the Claim which gave rise to such indemnification. Any such Covered Person shall fully cooperate with the Company, at the Company’s expense, in its efforts to enforce against any such third party the rights to which it is so subrogated.

(d)The Company, as an indemnifying party from time to time, agrees that, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law, its obligation to indemnify Covered Persons under this Agreement shall apply to any amounts expended by any other indemnitor under any other agreement in respect of indemnification or advancement of expenses to any Covered Person in connection with any Claims to the extent such amounts extended by such other indemnitor are on account of any unpaid indemnity amounts hereunder.

(e)The right of any Covered Person to the indemnification provided herein is cumulative of, and in addition to, any and all rights to which such Covered Person may otherwise be entitled by Contract or as a matter of Law or equity, and extend to such Covered Person’s successors, assigns, and legal representatives.

(f)If this Section 6.08 or any portion hereof shall be invalidated on any ground by any court of competent jurisdiction or properly constituted arbitration panel, then the Company shall nonetheless, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law, indemnify and hold harmless each Person entitled to be indemnified pursuant to this Section 6.08 as to liabilities to the full extent permitted by any applicable portion of this Section 6.08 that shall not have been invalidated.

Subject to the foregoing and to Section 6.09(b), the Managing Member, the Company, and the other Members agree to take (or omit to take) such commercially reasonable actions reasonably requested by any Investor Parent Entity as shall be necessary for the Investor Parent Entities to comply with the 30% Rule, including amending this Agreement to implement a change in the rights of such Investor Parent Entities and their Affiliates in the Class B Units (or other Equity Interests of the Company held, directly or indirectly, by such Investor Parent Entities); provided that, in accordance with Section 6.09(b), no such action shall adversely affect the rights of the Company or any other Member (including the rights of any other Member in the Membership Interest (including Class

B Units) held by such other Member). The Managing Member agrees to exercise its powers as such to comply with the foregoing.

(b)Notwithstanding anything contained in this Section 6.09, none of the Company, the Managing Member, or any Member shall be required or permitted take any action that has, or would reasonably be likely to cause or result in, an adverse effect on such Member’s economic, governance, or other rights under this Agreement or with respect to the Membership Interest held by such Member.

(iv)Each Class B Member hereby agrees that, in connection with any Disposition of its Class B Units pursuant to this Section 7.01(c), such Class B Member shall use all cash and all Cash Equivalents received pursuant to this Section 7.01(c) (net

(v)NEP Member may, in its sole discretion, assign to NEP or any Affiliate of NEP its right to purchase the Class B Units of any Disposing Member pursuant to this Section 7.01(c).

(vi)No Class B Unit acquired by NEP Member (or its assignee) pursuant to this Section 7.01(c) shall be subject to the limitation on amounts distributable to NEP Class B Parties pursuant to Section 5.01(e), and each such Class B Unit shall be eligible to receive distributions pursuant to Section 5.01(e) and Section 5.01(f), without regard to the limitation set forth in Section 5.01(e).

(d)Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, other than pursuant to Section 7.02, Section 7.03, and Section 7.04, no Member may Dispose of all or any portion of its Membership Interest to the extent: (i) the transferee is, during (A) the period that production Tax credits under Section 45 of the Code (or any successor provision) may be claimed with respect to the output of any direct or indirect asset of a Tax Equity Entity, or (B) the period that includes any applicable depreciation recovery period of any direct or indirect asset of a Tax Equity Entity and continues until the one-year anniversary thereof, a Person who is a Related Party; (ii) the Disposition would, with respect to any Tax Equity Investor, result in any recapture, loss, unavailability, delay, or disallowance of all or a portion of any federal income Tax credits otherwise available pursuant to Section 45 of the Code or Section 48 of the Code (or, in each case, any successor provision) allocated or allowed, or that would otherwise be allocable or allowable, to such Tax Equity Investor; (iii) during the (y) applicable investment Tax credit recapture period or (z) applicable depreciation recovery period of a Tax Equity Entity with respect to any of its direct or indirect assets, the Disposition would cause all or a portion of any of the assets held by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or any Non-Controlled Entity to become “tax-exempt use property” within the meaning of Section 168(h) of the Code during any applicable recovery period (unless the applicable recovery period is under the “alternative depreciation system” under Section 168(g) of the Code); or (iv) such Disposition would result in the failure of any representation made by any Member pursuant to Section 8.04 to be true; provided that this clause (iv) shall not apply to the Disposing Member if such Disposition is of all of the Class A Units or Class B Units then owned by such Disposing Member.

7.02 Call Option.

(a)At any time, and from time to time, on or after December 15, 2027, but prior to December 15, 2032, NEP Member shall have the right, but not the obligation, to acquire, subject to the limitations and requirements of this Section 7.02, all or any portion of the outstanding Class B Units at a purchase price that results in an Internal Rate of Return per Class B Unit purchased pursuant to this Section 7.02, measured from the applicable Acquisition Date of such Class B Unit to the Call Option Closing Date, of six and nine hundred thirty-one thousandths percent (6.931%) (the “Call Option Purchase Price”), upon the terms and conditions set forth in this Section 7.02 (the “Call Option”). NEP Member may not assign its right to purchase the outstanding Class B Units pursuant to this Section 7.02 to any Person other than NEP or a Subsidiary thereof; provided, however, that, in the event of any such assignment, NEP Member and NEP shall remain subject to their respective obligations set forth in this Section 7.02 upon any exercise of the Call Option.

(b)To exercise the Call Option, NEP Member shall deliver to the Class B Members written notice of such exercise (the “Call Option Notice”) containing (i) the date (the “Call Option Closing Date”) on which the Call Option is to be consummated (the “Call Option Closing”), (ii) the number of Class B Units to be purchased, (iii) the Call Option Purchase Price per Class B Unit, and (iv) the form of consideration to be used to pay the Call Option Purchase Price, which shall be either cash, Non-Voting NEP Common Units (or NEP Common Units if the holder of Class B Units to be purchased requests in writing, not less than two (2) Business Days prior to the applicable Call Option Closing Date, the issuance of NEP Common Units), or a combination of cash and Non-Voting NEP Common Units (or NEP Common Units if the holder of Class B Units to be purchased requests in writing, not less than two (2) Business Days prior to the applicable Call Option Closing Date, the issuance of NEP Common Units), subject to the other requirements of this Section 7.02, and the respective proportions thereof to be paid to the Class B Members (or their nominee(s)); provided, however, that NEP Member may issue a maximum of one (1) Call Option Notice in any calendar quarter. The Call Option Notice shall be delivered to the Class B Members at least five (5) calendar days, but not more than ten (10) Business Days, in advance of the Call Option Closing Date. Delivery of the initial Call Option Notice may be made prior to the first date on which NEP Member is permitted to exercise the Call Option in accordance with the preceding sentence (but for the avoidance of doubt, no Call Option Closing shall occur prior to December 15, 2027). If the consideration to be used to pay the Call Option Purchase Price, as set forth in the Call Option Notice, includes Non-Voting NEP Common Units (or NEP Common Units if the holder of Class B Units to be purchased requests in writing, not less than two (2) Business Days prior to the applicable Call Option Closing Date, the issuance of NEP Common Units), then the applicable Call Option Notice may not be delivered, nor may any Call Option Closing be consummated, within fourteen (14) calendar days before any date on which NEP publicly announces its earnings for any Quarter or Fiscal Year.

(c)The following restrictions shall apply to each exercise of the Call Option:

(i)no Call Option may be exercised, and no Call Option Notice may be issued other than for a number of Class B Units that is five percent (5%) (or any integral multiple of five percent (5%)) of the total number of Class B Units (excluding outstanding Supplemental Class B Units) outstanding on the date of the applicable Call

Option Notice, unless such exercise of the Call Option is for the purchase of all remaining Class B Units not held by NEP Class B Parties;

(ii)the number of Class B Units purchased pursuant to the exercise of the Call Option during any calendar quarter shall not exceed twenty-five percent (25%) of the total number of Class B Units (excluding outstanding Supplemental Class B Units) outstanding on the date of the applicable Call Option Notice; provided, however, that the restriction set forth in this clause (ii) shall terminate on December 15, 2031;

(iii)the Class B Units purchased directly from each Class B Member or indirectly through a Blocker Merger pursuant to any exercise of the Call Option shall consist of a Proportionate Class B Allocation of such Class B Member’s or Blocker’s Class B Units;

(iv)if Investor delivers notice to NEP Member of Investor’s intent for NEP Member (or its nominee) to purchase Blocker Interests in connection with such Call Option pursuant to a Blocker Merger in accordance with Section 7.02(n), then Investor shall take such actions as are necessary to ensure that the number of Class B Units to be purchased indirectly through a Blocker Merger pursuant to such Call Option shall equal the exact number of Class B Units directly or indirectly owned by any one Blocker or the exact number of Class B Units directly or indirectly owned, in the aggregate, by any two or more Blockers (such that the acquisition of Blocker Interests through such Blocker Merger pursuant to such Call Option provides NEP Member (or its nominee) the indirect ownership, through the surviving Blocker of such Blocker Merger, of the number of Class B Units set forth in such Call Option Notice, less the number of Class B Units that Investor has elected for the NEP Member (or its nominee) to purchase directly in connection with such Call Option); and

(v)the aggregate number of Class B Units acquired in any Call Option shall, cumulatively when taken together with all Class B Units purchased in all prior exercises of the Call Option, be no more than:

(A)from December 15, 2027, but prior to December 15, 2028, twenty percent (20%) of the total number of outstanding Class B Units (excluding outstanding Supplemental Class B Units);

(B)from December 15, 2028, but prior to December 15, 2029, forty percent (40%) of the total number of outstanding Class B Units (excluding outstanding Supplemental Class B Units);

(C)from December 15, 2029, but prior to December 15, 2030, sixty percent (60%) of the total number of outstanding Class B Units (excluding outstanding Supplemental Class B Units);

(D)from December 15, 2030, but prior to December 15, 2031, eighty percent (80%) of the total number of outstanding Class B Units (excluding outstanding Supplemental Class B Units); and

(E)from December 15, 2031, but prior to December 15, 2032, one hundred percent (100%) of the total number of outstanding Class B Units (excluding outstanding Supplemental Class B Units).

(d)Non-Voting NEP Common Units (or, if requested pursuant to Section 7.02(b), NEP Common Units) may be used for payment of the Call Option Purchase Price at any Call Option Closing Date subject to the following limitations and the satisfaction of each of the following conditions as of the applicable Call Option Closing Date:

(i)the NEP Common Units are listed or admitted to trading on the Nasdaq Stock Market or the New York Stock Exchange;

(ii)(A) the Registration Rights Agreement is in effect with respect to the NEP Common Units to be issued as part of the Call Option Purchase Price (or into which the Non-Voting NEP Common Units are convertible), subject to and in accordance with the terms of the NEP Limited Partnership Agreement, and (B) NEP shall use commercially reasonable efforts to file, as promptly as practicable following the delivery of the applicable Call Option Notice, a registration statement with the Commission registering the resale of the NEP Common Units to be issued at the Call Option Closing as part of the Call Option Purchase Price (or into which the Non-Voting NEP Common Units issued at such Call Option Closing are convertible); and

(iii)on such Call Option Closing Date, there shall be no Call Option Cash Shortfall.

(e)NEP Member may pay any Call Option Purchase Price, at its option (subject to Section 7.02(d) above), in either cash, Non-Voting NEP Common Units (or, if requested pursuant to Section 7.02(b), NEP Common Units), or a combination of cash and Non-Voting NEP Common Units (or, if requested pursuant to Section 7.02(b), NEP Common Units).

(f)Any NEP Common Units or Non-Voting NEP Common Units to be issued as payment of (or partial payment of) any Call Option Purchase Price will be issued at a price (the “Issuance Price”) specified in the applicable Call Option Notice, which Issuance Price shall be the lesser of (i) the 10-day VWAP on the Trading Day immediately preceding the date of the Call Option Notice and (ii) the listed price of a NEP Common Unit as of the end of trading on the Trading Day immediately preceding the date of the Call Option Notice.

(g)On each Call Option Closing Date, (i) the Class B Members will convey all right, title, and interest in and to the applicable Class B Units, free of all Encumbrances (other than restrictions on transfer arising under this Agreement and under applicable securities Laws), to NEP Member or its nominee; (ii) NEP Member or its nominee will pay the cash portion of the Call Option Purchase Price to the Class B Members (or their nominee(s)) by wire transfer of immediately available funds; and (iii) NEP shall satisfy the remaining portion of the Call Option Purchase Price by issuing Non-Voting NEP Common Units (or, if requested pursuant to Section 7.02(b), NEP Common Units) to the Class B Members, and, in connection therewith, NEP shall instruct, and shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause, its Transfer Agent to record the issuance of such NEP Common Units or Non-Voting NEP Common Units, as the case may be, to such Class B Members (or their nominee(s)). No fractional NEP Common Units

or Non-Voting NEP Common Units, as the case may be, will be issued. The Members agree that each Call Option Closing shall be subject to the receipt of all applicable Required Governmental Authorizations. In the event any such Required Governmental Authorizations shall not have been obtained by the date that is otherwise scheduled to be the Call Option Closing Date, then such Call Option Closing Date shall automatically be delayed until such date as all such Required Governmental Authorizations have been obtained and, for the avoidance of doubt, the Call Option Purchase Price set forth in the Call Option Notice shall be calculated from the applicable Acquisition Date of the Class B Units to be purchased until the date of the actual Call Option Closing.

(h)Each Class B Member hereby agrees that, in connection with each Call Option Closing, such Class B Member (or its Affiliates) shall use reasonable best efforts to obtain Qualifying Financing and shall borrow an amount thereunder that, together with the aggregate amount of any Call Option Cash Consideration, if any, to be paid to such Class B Member and all other cash on hand and all Cash Equivalents of such Class B Member, provides such Class B Member sufficient cash to repay the portion of such Class B Member’s then outstanding Indebtedness under any Class B Permitted Loan Financing required to be repaid as a result of such exercise of the Call Option (including the net amount of any termination payments and unpaid amounts under any Permitted Hedging Transactions and any other breakage costs, termination fees, and other payments due and payable under such Class B Permitted Loan Financing in connection with such repayment), and to cause the release of all Encumbrances (other than restrictions on transfer arising under this Agreement and under applicable securities Laws) on the Class B Units being acquired pursuant to the exercise of such Call Option. To the extent that the net proceeds from the Qualifying Financing, together with the aggregate Call Option Cash Consideration to be paid to such Class B Member (net of any deductions or withholdings therefrom pursuant to Section 7.02(m)) and all other cash on hand and Cash Equivalents of the applicable Class B Member, are insufficient to repay in full the portion of Indebtedness under such Class B Permitted Loan Financing that is required to be repaid (including the net amount of any termination payments and unpaid amounts under any Permitted Hedging Transactions and any other breakage costs, termination fees and other payments due and payable under such Class B Permitted Loan Financing in connection with such repayment) as a result of the exercise of such Call Option (such deficiency, a “Call Option Cash Shortfall”), then such Class B Member shall use reasonable best efforts to remedy such Call Option Cash Shortfall as promptly as practicable by obtaining Qualifying Financing (or additional Qualifying Financing) in an amount required to remedy the Call Option Cash Shortfall. The Members agree that, if any Class B Permitted Loan Financing is outstanding at such time, each Call Option Closing shall be subject to there being no Call Option Cash Shortfall. If there is a Call Option Cash Shortfall and the applicable Class B Members are unable, using their respective reasonable best efforts to, secure Qualifying Financing or to refinance the existing Qualifying Financing with another Qualifying Financing, in an amount sufficient to remedy the Call Option Cash Shortfall by the Call Option Closing Date set forth in the applicable Call Option Notice (the “Scheduled Call Option Buyout Date”), then the applicable Call Option Closing shall automatically be delayed for a period (a “Call Option Delay Period”) commencing on the Scheduled Call Option Buyout Date and ending upon the earliest to occur of (i) the Call Option Closing, (ii) NEP Member’s delivery of written revocation of the applicable Call Option Notice to the Class B Member Representative at any time after the Scheduled Call Option Buyout Date, and (iii) the date that is twenty (20) Business Days after the Scheduled Call Option Buyout Date. During any such Call Option Delay Period, the Class B Members shall use their respective

reasonable best efforts to secure Qualifying Financing, or to refinance the existing Qualifying Financing with another Qualifying Financing, in an amount that is sufficient to remedy the Call Option Cash Shortfall; provided, however, that, at any time and from time to time during such Call Option Delay Period, NEP Member shall be entitled to modify the proportions of cash and Non-Voting NEP Common Units (or NEP Common Units, if requested pursuant to Section 7.02(b)) to be used to pay the Call Option Purchase Price at the applicable Call Option Closing, upon notice thereof delivered to the Class B Member Representative on or after the Scheduled Call Option Buyout Date. If, following the Scheduled Call Option Buyout Date, the Class B Members are able, using their respective reasonable best efforts, to remedy the Call Option Cash Shortfall, then (A) the Class B Member Representative shall promptly deliver written notice thereof to NEP Member, (B) the applicable Call Option Closing shall occur as promptly thereafter as practicable, and (C) at the applicable Call Option Closing, the amount of the Call Option Purchase Price and the Issuance Price for Non-Voting NEP Common Units (or NEP Common Units, if requested pursuant to Section 7.02(b)) to be issued as payment (or partial payment) of the applicable Call Option Purchase Price shall be the same as is set forth in the original Call Option Notice; provided that, if the Class B Members are unable to remedy the applicable Call Option Cash Shortfall by the expiration of the applicable Call Option Delay Period, then the obligation of the Class B Members to use their respective reasonable best efforts to secure Qualifying Financing, or to refinance the existing Qualifying Financing, in an amount sufficient to remedy the Call Option Cash Shortfall shall cease concurrently with such expiration of the applicable Call Option Delay Period.

(i)Following consummation of the Call Option Closing pursuant to which all of a Class B Member’s Class B Units are acquired by NEP Member (or its nominee), the Managing Member will amend this Agreement to reflect the withdrawal of such Class B Member and the transfer of the Class B Units effective as of the applicable Call Option Closing.

(j)To the extent that, in the exercise of any Call Option, Class B Units will be acquired by NEP Member (or its nominee) directly from Class B Members, the number of Class B Units to be purchased is less than all of the outstanding Class B Units, and there are multiple holders of such Class B Units, then the Class B Units so purchased will be acquired pro rata from the Class B Members (other than NEP Class B Parties) based on the number of such Class B Units held. To the extent the Call Option Purchase Price consists of both cash and Non-Voting NEP Common Units (or NEP Common Units, if requested in accordance with the terms of this Agreement), such consideration shall be paid to holders of Class B Units (or, if applicable, to the applicable Blocker Parent) in proportionate amounts.

(k)Each Member agrees to cooperate fully with the Company, the Managing Member, and NEP to effect the Call Option Closing, including using its reasonable best efforts to obtain all applicable Governmental Authorizations, terminating and releasing all Encumbrances on the Class B Units (other than restrictions on transfer arising under this Agreement and under applicable securities Laws), and entering into any agreements and instruments and executing any certificates or other documents the Managing Member reasonably deems necessary or appropriate to consummate the Disposition of the Class B Units. The Class B Members and NEP agree to use their respective commercially reasonable efforts to coordinate with the Transfer Agent to record the issuance of NEP Common Units and Non-Voting NEP Common Units, as the case may be, to such Class B Members (or their nominee(s)). Investor agrees that it shall use reasonable best efforts to (i) seek Qualifying Financing in accordance with this Section 7.02 and

cause the Call Option Closing to occur as promptly as practicable (it being agreed that Investor shall not be required to seek any additional capital contributions from its equity holders or Affiliates or any other financing other than Qualifying Financing in accordance with this Section 7.02) and (ii) keep NEP Member reasonably informed of developments in Investor’s efforts to obtain Qualifying Financing.

(l)For all purposes of this Agreement, the Class B Members agree that, until the earlier of the date that (A) the Class B Permitted Loan Financing Payment in Full occurs, or (B) the Flip Date occurs, the Class B Members shall not incur Indebtedness, under the Credit Agreement or any other Class B Permitted Loan Financing (including any Indebtedness under any Permitted Hedging Transaction) or otherwise, with a principal amount in excess of the amount of Indebtedness borrowed under the Credit Agreement on the Effective Date, plus the amount of Indebtedness subsequently incurred under the Credit Agreement in connection with the Additional Closing, on terms not less favorable to the Class A Members, plus amounts under any Permitted Hedging Transaction, in each case, to the extent permitted by or required under, and pursuant to, the terms of the Credit Agreement as in effect on the Effective Date. The Class B Members further agree that they shall not take any actions or omit to take any actions that cause, permit, or result in Encumbrances on the Class B Units, including Encumbrances securing Indebtedness, other than under the Credit Agreement or under any related loan documents (or under any replacements thereof which are entered into in connection with any Class B Permitted Loan Financing) and under any Permitted Hedging Transaction.

(m)NEP Member or its nominee shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from each Call Option Purchase Price the amounts each NEP Member or its nominee is required to deduct and withhold under any applicable Law, and amounts so withheld and properly remitted to the appropriate Governmental Authority shall be deemed paid for all purposes of this Agreement to the Person with respect to which such amount was withheld; provided that any such amounts shall be specified by NEP Member in the applicable Call Option Notice; provided, further, that, if, on the Call Option Closing Date, the Class B Members deliver to NEP Member or its nominee withholding certificates pursuant to Treasury Regulations Section 1.1445-2(b)(2) and, in the case of a sale of the Class B Units, Internal Revenue Service Notice 2018-29, the Class B Member (or if such entity is a disregarded entity, its regarded owner) is not a non-U.S. person, NEP Member or its nominee shall not withhold any amounts under Section 1445 or Section 1446(f) of the Code unless there is a change in applicable Law prior to the Call Option Closing Date that requires such withholding.

(n)Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Section 7.02(a), with respect to any and all Class B Units to be purchased pursuant to a Call Option that are held directly or indirectly by any Blocker, so long as (i) an Investor Parent or any of its Affiliates Controls the Blocker Parent of such Blocker; (ii) at all times prior to the applicable Call Option Closing, the only assets of the applicable Blocker (other than cash) are Class B Units, which Class B Units shall be held by such Blocker in a Proportionate Class B Allocation; (iii) the applicable Blocker has engaged in no business activities other than its organizational activities and acquiring, financing, accepting, owning, and holding, directly or indirectly, Class B Units; and (iv) on the applicable Call Option Closing Date, the applicable Blocker has no liabilities (other than liabilities for current unpaid Taxes arising directly from (y) such Blocker’s direct or indirect ownership of Class B Units and (z) Indebtedness under any Class B Permitted Loan Financing that is attributable to such Blocker or under which such Blocker is obligated (collectively,

“Current Blocker Taxes”)), then, if the Class B Member Representative provides notice to NEP Member within two (2) calendar days of receipt of such Call Option Notice that it wishes for NEP Member (or its nominee) to acquire, by way of a Blocker Merger, all of the issued and outstanding Equity Interests of such Blocker (collectively, the “Blocker Interests”) pursuant to the exercise of such Call Option (which notice shall also set forth the number of Class B Units to be acquired by NEP Member (or its nominee) indirectly through such Blocker Merger and the number of Class B Units to be acquired directly from Class B Members, the total of which Class B Units shall equal the number of Class B Units set forth in the Call Option Notice), NEP Member (or its nominee) and Blocker Parent shall effect NEP Member’s (or its nominee’s) acquisition of such Blocker Interests pursuant to a merger of an Affiliate of NEP Member (any such Affiliate, a “Blocker Merger Sub”) with and into such Blocker pursuant to the Act (any such merger, a “Blocker Merger”), pursuant to which (A) all of the Blocker Interests of such Blocker held by Blocker Parent shall be cancelled and converted into the right to receive the Call Option Purchase Price (or applicable portion thereof) and (B) all right, title, and interest in and to the Class B Units held by such Blocker, free and clear of all Encumbrances (other than restrictions on transfer arising under applicable securities Laws), shall remain vested in the Blocker, on the same terms and subject to the same conditions as set forth herein for the purchase of Class B Units pursuant to the Call Option. Investor and Blocker Parent shall indemnify and hold harmless NEP Member and its Affiliates from and against any and all Claims arising out of or relating to such Blocker or Class B Member (including Claims arising out of or relating to Current Blocker Taxes). At the applicable Call Option Closing, effective immediately upon consummation of such Blocker Merger, (1) the applicable Blocker shall survive such Blocker Merger, and the applicable Blocker Merger Sub shall cease to exist; (2) Blocker Parent shall cease to be a member of, and shall cease to have any further right, title, or interest in such Blocker; (3) the applicable Blocker shall remain the sole record and beneficial owner of all of the outstanding Class B Units held by such Blocker, free and clear of all Encumbrances (other than restrictions on transfer arising under applicable securities Laws); and (4) NEP Member (or its Affiliate) shall be the sole legal and beneficial owner of all of the limited liability company interests of such Blocker. If the Class B Member Representative exercises the option to have Blocker Interests acquired pursuant to a Blocker Merger as set forth in this Section 7.02(n) (in respect of all or part of the Class B Units which are the subject of the relevant Call Option), the applicable references elsewhere in this Section 7.02 to Class B Units or to a Class B Member selling Class B Units shall (to the extent relating to Class B Units to be purchased indirectly through the acquisition of Blocker Interests) be references to an acquisition of such Class B Units pursuant to a Blocker Merger on the terms set forth in this Section 7.02(n), and the other terms of this Section 7.02 shall apply mutatis mutandis, and Investor, the Class B Members, Blocker Parent, NEP Member, and the applicable Affiliate of NEP Member will take all actions necessary to effect the Call Option Closing pursuant to a Blocker Merger as set forth in this Section 7.02(n) rather than (or in combination with, as the case may be) pursuant to the purchase of Class B Units directly.

7.03 Change of Control of NEP.

(a)If, at any time, there is an announcement of a proposed Change of Control of NEP (or the entry into any agreement providing therefor), then, commencing on the date of such announcement of a proposed transaction that would result in a Change of Control of NEP (or such entry into any agreement providing therefor) and ending on the later of (i) the date that is thirty (30) calendar days after the public announcement of such Change of Control of NEP and (ii) the date that is ten (10) Business Days prior to the publicly announced date upon which such Change of Control is expected to close, each Class B Member shall have the right (but not the obligation) to deliver to NEP Member a notice executed by such Class B Member (the “Change of Control Notice”) of such Class B Member’s exercise of its right under this Section 7.03 to require NEP Member to acquire all or any portion of the Class B Units held by such Class B Member (subject to and conditioned upon the consummation of such Change of Control of NEP) at a purchase price for each Class B Unit for which such election is made that results in a return to such Class B Member of at least an Internal Rate of Return on each such Class B Unit purchased pursuant to this Section 7.03, measured from the applicable Acquisition Date to the date on which the Change of Control of NEP is consummated (such date, the “Change of Control Closing Date”), of seven and nine hundred thirty-one thousandths percent (7.931%) (the “Change of Control Purchase Price”), upon the terms and conditions set forth in this Section 7.03 (the “NEP Change of Control Option”). NEP Member may not assign its obligation to purchase the applicable Class B Units pursuant to this Section 7.03 to any Person other than NEP or the acquiring Person in the Change of Control of NEP, or any of their respective Affiliates.

(b)To exercise its rights pursuant to Section 7.03(a), a Class B Member shall deliver to NEP Member a Change of Control Notice containing the publicly announced Change of Control Closing Date, the number of Class B Units to be purchased, and the Change of Control Purchase Price per Class B Unit (calculated on the basis of the Change of Control Closing occurring on the announced Change of Control Closing Date). NEP Member may pay the Change of Control Purchase Price, at its option, in either cash, Non-Voting NEP Common Units (or NEP Common Units if the holder of Class B Units to be purchased requests in writing, not less than two (2) Business Days prior to the applicable Change of Control Closing Date, the issuance of NEP Common Units), or a combination of cash and Non-Voting NEP Common Units (or NEP Common Units if the holder of Class B Units to be purchased requests in writing, not less than two (2) Business Days prior to the applicable Change of Control Closing Date, the issuance of NEP Common Units); provided, however, that the Change of Control Purchase Price may be paid in the form of a security that is substantially equivalent to the NEP Common Units in terms of rights, preferences and privileges, including with respect to economics, governance, transferability and liquidity (any such security, a “NEP Common Unit Equivalent Security”), if, as a result of the Change of Control of NEP, NEP will cease to exist or the NEP Common Units will cease to be listed on a National Securities Exchange; provided, further, that, if no NEP Common Unit Equivalent Security exists on the applicable Change of Control Closing Date, and, if, as a result of the Change of Control of NEP, NEP will cease to exist or the NEP Common Units will cease to be listed on a National Securities Exchange, then the Change of Control Purchase Price must be paid entirely in cash. If some or all of the Change of Control Purchase Price consists of NEP Common Units or Non-Voting NEP Common Units, the Issuance Price for each such NEP Common Unit or Non-Voting NEP Common Unit will be specified as the lesser of (A) the 10-day VWAP of the NEP Common Units on the Trading Day immediately preceding

the date of the announcement of the proposed Change of Control of NEP and (B) the listed price of a NEP Common Unit as of the end of trading on the Trading Day immediately preceding the date of the announcement of the proposed Change of Control of NEP. The closing of the acquisition of the Class B Units identified in the Change of Control Notice (the “Change of Control Closing”) shall be expressly conditioned upon, and shall occur substantially simultaneously with, the Change of Control Closing on the Change of Control Closing Date.

(c)At the Change of Control Closing, (i) each Class B Member exercising the NEP Change of Control Option will convey the Class B Units identified in the applicable Change of Control Notice, free of all Encumbrances (other than restrictions on transfer arising under this Agreement and under applicable securities Laws), to NEP Member or its nominee; (ii) NEP Member or its nominee will pay the cash portion, if any, of the Change of Control Purchase Price to such Class B Member (or its nominee(s)) by wire transfer of immediately available funds; and (iii) the remaining portion, if any, of the Change of Control Purchase Price shall be paid by issuing NEP Common Units, Non-Voting NEP Common Units, or a substantially equivalent security, as determined pursuant to Section 7.03(b), to such Class B Member no later than three (3) Business Days after the date of the Change of Control Closing, and, in connection therewith, NEP shall instruct, and shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause, its Transfer Agent to record the issuance of such NEP Common Units or Non-Voting NEP Common Units, as the case may be, to such Class B Member (or its nominee(s)). No fractional NEP Common Units or Non-Voting NEP Common Units, as the case may be, will be issued. The Members agree that the Change of Control Closing shall be subject to the receipt of all applicable Required Governmental Authorizations. In the event any such Required Governmental Authorizations shall not have been obtained by the date that is otherwise scheduled to be the date of the Change of Control Closing, then such date of the Change of Control Closing shall automatically be delayed until such date as all such Required Governmental Authorizations have been obtained and, for the avoidance of doubt, the Change of Control Purchase Price set forth in the Change of Control Notice shall be calculated from the applicable Acquisition Date of the Class B Units to be purchased until the Change of Control Closing Date.

(d)Each Class B Member hereby agrees that, in connection with the Change of Control Closing, such Class B Member (or its Affiliates) shall use all of the cash portion of the Change of Control Purchase Price, if any, to be paid to such Class B Member and all cash on hand and all Cash Equivalents of such Class B Member to repay the portion of such Class B Member’s then outstanding Indebtedness under any Class B Permitted Loan Financing required to be repaid as a result of the exercise of the NEP Change of Control Option (including the net amount of any termination payments and unpaid amounts under any Permitted Hedging Transactions and any other breakage costs, termination fees, and other payments due and payable under such Class B Permitted Loan Financing in connection with such repayment), and to cause the release of all Encumbrances (other than restrictions on transfer arising under this Agreement and under applicable securities Laws) on the Class B Units being acquired pursuant to the exercise of such NEP Change of Control Option. To the extent that the cash portion (if any) of the Change of Control Purchase Price to be paid to such Class B Member (net of any deductions or withholdings required under applicable Law) and all cash on hand and all Cash Equivalents of the applicable Class B Member are insufficient to repay in full the portion of Indebtedness under such Class B Permitted Loan Financing that is required to be repaid (including the net amount of any termination payments and unpaid amounts under any Permitted Hedging Transactions and any other breakage costs, termination fees and other payments due and payable under such Class

100

B Permitted Loan Financing in connection with such repayment) as a result of the exercise of such NEP Change of Control Option (such deficiency, a “Change of Control Cash Shortfall”), then such Class B Member shall use reasonable best efforts to remedy such Change of Control Cash Shortfall as promptly as practicable by obtaining Qualifying Financing in an amount required to remedy the Change of Control Cash Shortfall. The Members agree that, if any Class B Permitted Loan Financing is outstanding at such time, each Change of Control Closing shall be subject to there being no Change of Control Cash Shortfall. If there is a Change of Control Cash Shortfall and the applicable Class B Members are unable, using their respective reasonable best efforts, to secure Qualifying Financing or to refinance the existing Qualifying Financing with another Qualifying Financing in an amount sufficient to remedy the Change of Control Cash Shortfall by the Change of Control Closing Date set forth in the Change of Control Notice (the “Scheduled Change of Control Buyout Date”), then the applicable Change of Control Closing shall automatically be delayed for a period (a “Change of Control Delay Period”) commencing on the Scheduled Change of Control Buyout Date and ending upon the earliest to occur of (i) the Change of Control Closing, (ii) such Class B Member’s delivery of written revocation of the applicable Change of Control Notice to NEP Member at any time after the Scheduled Change of Control Buyout Date, and (iii) the date that is twenty (20) Business Days after the Scheduled Change of Control Buyout Date. During any such Change of Control Delay Period, the Class B Members shall use their respective reasonable best efforts to secure Qualifying Financing, or to refinance the existing Qualifying Financing with another Qualifying Financing, in an amount that is sufficient to remedy the Change of Control Cash Shortfall; provided, however, that, at any time and from time to time during such Change of Control Delay Period, NEP Member shall be entitled to modify the proportions of cash and Non-Voting NEP Common Units (or NEP Common Units, if requested pursuant to Section 7.03(b)) to be used to pay the Change of Control Purchase Price at the applicable Change of Control Closing, upon notice thereof delivered to the Class B Member Representative on or after the Scheduled Change of Control Buyout Date. If, following the Scheduled Change of Control Buyout Date, the Class B Members are able, using their respective reasonable best efforts, to remedy the Change of Control Cash Shortfall, then (A) the Class B Member Representative shall promptly deliver written notice thereof to NEP Member, (B) the applicable Change of Control Closing shall occur as promptly thereafter as practicable, and (C) at the applicable Change of Control Closing, the amount of the Change of Control Purchase Price and the Issuance Price for Non-Voting NEP Common Units (or NEP Common Units, if requested pursuant to Section 7.03(b)) to be issued as payment (or partial payment) of the applicable Call Option Purchase Price shall be the same as is set forth in the original Change of Control Notice.

(e)Following consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Section 7.03, to the extent a Class B Member has Disposed of all of its Class B Units, the Managing Member will amend this Agreement to reflect the withdrawal of such Class B Member and the transfer of such Class B Units effective as of the Change of Control Closing.

(f)Each Member agrees to cooperate fully with the Company, the Managing Member, and NEP to effect the Change of Control Closing as reasonably requested, including using its reasonable best efforts to obtain all applicable Governmental Authorizations, terminating and releasing all Encumbrances on the Class B Units (other than restrictions on transfer arising under this Agreement and under applicable securities Laws), and entering into any agreements and instruments and executing any certificates or other documents the Managing Member reasonably deems necessary or appropriate to consummate the Disposition of the Class

101

B Units (provided that the foregoing shall not require Investor to take any actions to remedy any Change of Control Cash Shortfall other than seeking Qualifying Financing in accordance with Section 7.03(d)). Investor agrees that it shall use reasonable best efforts to (i) seek Qualifying Financing in accordance with Section 7.03(d) and cause the Change of Control Closing to occur as promptly as practicable and (ii) keep NEP Member reasonably informed of developments in Investor’s efforts to obtain Qualifying Financing. The Class B Members and NEP agree to use commercially reasonable efforts to coordinate with the Transfer Agent to record the issuance of NEP Common Units and Non-Voting NEP Common Units, as the case may be, to such Class B Members (or their nominee(s)).

(g)Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Section 7.03(a), with respect to any and all Class B Units held directly or indirectly by one or more Blockers, so long as (i) an Investor Parent or any of its Affiliates Controls the Blocker Parent of such Blocker; (ii) at all times prior to the Change of Control Closing, the only assets of the applicable Blocker (other than cash) are Class B Units, which Class B Units shall be held by such Blocker in a Proportionate Class B Allocation; (iii) the applicable Blocker has engaged in no business activities other than its organizational activities and acquiring, financing, accepting, owning, and holding, directly or indirectly, Class B Units; and (iv) on the applicable date on which the Change of Control Closing actually occurs, the applicable Blocker has no liabilities (other than liabilities for Current Blocker Taxes), then, if the Class B Member Representative provides notice to NEP Member within two (2) calendar days of receipt of such Change of Control Notice that it wishes for NEP Member (or its nominee) to acquire, by way of a Blocker Merger, all of the issued and outstanding Blocker Interests of such Blocker pursuant to the exercise of such NEP Change of Control Option (which notice shall also set forth the number of Class B Units to be acquired by NEP Member (or its nominee) indirectly through such Blocker Merger and the number of Class B Units to be acquired directly from Class B Members, the total of which Class B Units shall equal the number of Class B Units set forth in the Change of Control Notice), NEP Member (or its nominee) and Blocker Parent shall effect NEP Member’s (or its nominee’s) acquisition of such Blocker Interests pursuant to a merger of a Blocker Merger Sub with and into such Blocker pursuant to a Blocker Merger, pursuant to which (A) all of the Blocker Interests of such Blocker held by Blocker Parent shall be cancelled and converted into the right to receive the Call Option Purchase Price (or applicable portion thereof) and (B) all right, title, and interest in and to the Class B Units held by such Blocker, free and clear of all Encumbrances (other than restrictions on transfer arising under applicable securities Laws), shall remain vested in the Blocker, on the same terms and subject to the same conditions as set forth herein for the purchase of Class B Units pursuant to the NEP Change of Control Option. Investor and Blocker Parent shall indemnify and hold harmless NEP Member and its Affiliates from and against any and all Claims arising out of or relating to such Blocker or Class B Member (including Claims arising out of or relating to Current Blocker Taxes). At the applicable Change of Control Closing, effective immediately upon consummation of such Blocker Merger, (1) the applicable Blocker shall survive such Blocker Merger, and the applicable Blocker Merger Sub shall cease to exist; (2) Blocker Parent shall cease to be a member of, and shall cease to have any further right, title, or interest in such Blocker; (3) the applicable Blocker shall remain the sole record and beneficial owner of all of the outstanding Class B Units held by such Blocker, free and clear of all Encumbrances (other than restrictions on transfer arising under applicable securities Laws); and (4) NEP Member (or its Affiliate) shall be the sole legal and beneficial owner of all of the limited liability company interests of such Blocker. If the Class B Member Representative exercises the option to have Blocker Interests acquired pursuant to a Blocker Merger as set forth in this

102

Section 7.03(g) (in respect of all or part of the Class B Units which are the subject of the relevant NEP Change of Control Option), the applicable references elsewhere in this Section 7.03 to Class B Units or to a Class B Member selling Class B Units shall (to the extent relating to Class B Units to be purchased indirectly through the acquisition of Blocker Interests) be references to the acquisition of such Class B Units pursuant to a Blocker Merger on the terms set forth in this Section 7.03(g), and the other terms of this Section 7.03 shall apply mutatis mutandis, and Investor, the Class B Members, Blocker Parent, NEP Member and the applicable Affiliate of NEP Member will take all actions necessary to effect the Change of Control Closing pursuant to a Blocker Merger as set forth in this Section 7.03(g) rather than (or in combination with, as the case may be) pursuant to the purchase of Class B Units directly.

7.04 Change of Control of a Class B Member.

(a)If, at any time prior to the Flip Date, there is an announcement of a proposed Change of Control of a Class B Member or a Class B Member enters into any agreement providing therefor, then, commencing on the date of such announcement of a proposed Change of Control of a Class B Member or such entry into such agreement and ending on the date that is five (5) Business Days prior to the date on which the Change of Control of such Class B Member is expected to be consummated, NEP Member shall have the right, but not the obligation, to acquire all or any portion of the outstanding Class B Units held by such Class B Member (in such capacity, the “COC Member”) at a purchase price that results in an Internal Rate of Return on each Class B Unit for which such election is made, measured from the applicable Acquisition Date of such Class B Unit to the Class B COC Closing Date, of six and nine hundred thirty-one thousandths percent (6.931%) (the “Class B COC Purchase Price”), upon the terms and conditions set forth in this Section 7.04 (the “Class B COC Option”). NEP Member may not assign its right to purchase the applicable Class B Units pursuant to this Section 7.04 to any Person other than NEP or a Subsidiary thereof; provided, however, that, in the event of any such assignment, NEP Member and NEP shall remain subject to their respective obligations set forth in this Section 7.04 upon any exercise of the Class B COC Option.

(b)To exercise the Class B COC Option, NEP Member shall deliver to the COC Member notice of such exercise (the “Class B COC Notice”) containing (i) the date (the “Class B COC Closing Date”) on which the Class B COC Option is to be consummated (the “Class B COC Closing”), (ii) the number of Class B Units to be purchased, (iii) the Class B COC Purchase Price per Class B Unit, and (iv) the form of consideration to be used to pay the Class B COC Purchase Price, which shall be, at NEP Member’s election, either cash, Non-Voting NEP Common Units (or NEP Common Units if the holder of Class B Units to be purchased requests in writing, not less than two (2) Business Days prior to the applicable Class B COC Closing Date, the issuance of NEP Common Units), or a combination of cash and Non-Voting NEP Common Units (or NEP Common Units if the holder of Class B Units to be purchased requests in writing, not less than two (2) Business Days prior to the applicable Class B COC Closing Date, the issuance of NEP Common Units). If some or all of the Class B COC Purchase Price consists of NEP Common Units or Non-Voting NEP Common Units, the Issuance Price for each such NEP Common Unit or Non-Voting NEP Common Unit will be specified as the lesser of (A) the 10-day VWAP of the NEP Common Units on the Trading Day immediately preceding the date of the announcement of, or entry into agreement with respect to, the proposed Change of Control of the applicable Class B Member and (B) the listed price of a NEP Common Unit as of the end of trading on the Trading Day immediately preceding the date

103

of the announcement of, or entry into agreement with respect to, the proposed Change of Control of the applicable Class B Member. The Class B COC Notice shall be delivered to the COC Member at least five (5) Business Days in advance of the Class B COC Closing Date (but may be made subject to and conditioned upon consummation of such Change of Control of a Class B Member). The Class B Units purchased from each COC Member pursuant to the exercise of such Class B COC Option shall consist of a Proportionate Class B Allocation of such COC Member’s Class B Units.

(c)Non-Voting NEP Common Units (or, if requested pursuant to Section 7.04(b), NEP Common Units) may be used for payment of the Class B COC Purchase Price at any Class B COC Closing Date only if each of the following conditions is satisfied as of the applicable Class B COC Closing Date:

(i)the NEP Common Units are listed or admitted to trading on the Nasdaq Stock Market or the New York Stock Exchange; and

(ii)(A) the Registration Rights Agreement is in effect with respect to the NEP Common Units to be issued as part of the Class B COC Purchase Price (or into which the Non-Voting NEP Common Units are convertible), subject to and in accordance with the terms of the NEP Limited Partnership Agreement, and (B) NEP shall use commercially reasonable efforts to file, as promptly as practicable following the delivery of the applicable Class B COC Notice, a registration statement with the Commission registering the resale of the NEP Common Units to be issued at the Class B COC Closing as part of the Class B COC Purchase Price (or into which the Non-Voting NEP Common Units issued at such Class B COC Closing are convertible).

(d)On the Class B COC Closing Date, (i) the COC Member will convey all of its right, title, and interest in and to such COC Member’s Class B Units identified in the Class B COC Notice, free of all Encumbrances (other than restrictions on transfer arising under this Agreement and under applicable securities Laws), to NEP Member or its nominee; (ii) NEP Member or its nominee will pay the cash portion of the Class B COC Purchase Price to such COC Member (or its nominee) by wire transfer of immediately available funds; and (iii) NEP shall satisfy the remaining portion of the Class B COC Purchase Price by issuing Non-Voting NEP Common Units (or, if requested by the COC Member pursuant to Section 7.04(b), NEP Common Units) to such COC Member, and, in connection therewith, NEP shall instruct, and shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause, its Transfer Agent to record the issuance of such Non-Voting NEP Common Units or NEP Common Units, as the case may be, to such COC Member (or its nominee). No fractional NEP Common Units or Non-Voting NEP Common Units, as the case may be, will be issued. The Members agree that the Class B COC Closing shall be subject to the receipt of all applicable Required Governmental Authorizations. In the event any such Required Governmental Authorizations shall not have been obtained by the date that is otherwise scheduled to be the Class B COC Closing Date, then such Class B COC Closing Date shall automatically be delayed until such date as all such Required Governmental Authorizations have been obtained and, for the avoidance of doubt, the Class B COC Purchase Price set forth in the Class B COC Notice shall be calculated from the applicable Acquisition Date of the Class B Units to be purchased until such date as all such Required Governmental Authorizations have been obtained.

104

(e)Each Class B Member hereby agrees that, in connection with the Class B COC Closing, such Class B Member (or its Affiliates) shall use all of the cash portion of the Class B COC Purchase Price, if any, to be paid to such Class B Member and all other cash on hand and all Cash Equivalents of such Class B Member to repay the portion of such Class B Member’s then outstanding Indebtedness under any Class B Permitted Loan Financing required to be repaid as a result of the exercise of the Class B COC Option (including the net amount of any termination payments and unpaid amounts under any Permitted Hedging Transactions and any other breakage costs, termination fees, and other payments due and payable under such Class B Permitted Loan Financing in connection with such repayment), and to cause the release of all Encumbrances (other than restrictions on transfer arising under this Agreement and under applicable securities Laws) on the Class B Units being acquired pursuant to the exercise of such Class B COC Option. To the extent that the cash portion (if any) of the Class B COC Purchase Price to be paid to such Class B Member (net of any deductions or withholdings required under applicable Law), and all cash on hand and all Cash Equivalents of the applicable Class B Member, are insufficient to repay in full the portion of Indebtedness under such Class B Permitted Loan Financing that is required to be repaid (including the net amount of any termination payments and unpaid amounts under any Permitted Hedging Transactions and any other breakage costs, termination fees and other payments due and payable under such Class B Permitted Loan Financing in connection with such repayment) as a result of the exercise of such Class B COC Closing (such deficiency, a “Class B COC Cash Shortfall”), then such Class B Member shall use reasonable best efforts to remedy such Class B COC Cash Shortfall as promptly as practicable by obtaining Qualifying Financing in an amount required to remedy the Class B COC Cash Shortfall. The Members agree that, if any Class B Permitted Loan Financing is outstanding at such time, each Class B COC Closing shall be subject to there being no Class B COC Cash Shortfall. If there is a Class B COC Cash Shortfall and the applicable Class B Members are unable, using their respective reasonable best efforts, to secure Qualifying Financing or to refinance the existing Qualifying Financing with another Qualifying Financing in an amount sufficient to remedy the Class B COC Cash Shortfall by the Class B COC Closing Date set forth in the applicable Class B COC Notice (the “Scheduled Class B COC Buyout Date”), then the applicable Class B COC Closing shall automatically be delayed for a period (a “Class B COC Delay Period”) commencing on the Scheduled Class B COC Buyout Date and ending upon the earliest to occur of (i) the Class B COC Closing, (ii) NEP Member’s delivery of written revocation of the applicable Class B COC Notice to the Class B Member Representative at any time after the Scheduled Class B COC Buyout Date, and (iii) the date that is twenty (20) Business Days after the Scheduled Class B COC Buyout Date. During any such Class B COC Delay Period, the Class B Members shall use their respective reasonable best efforts to secure Qualifying Financing, or to refinance the existing Qualifying Financing with another Qualifying Financing, in an amount that is sufficient to remedy the Class B COC Cash Shortfall; provided, however, that, at any time and from time to time during such Class B COC Delay Period, NEP Member shall be entitled to modify the proportions of cash and Non-Voting NEP Common Units (or NEP Common Units, if requested pursuant to Section 7.04(b)) to be used to pay the Class B COC Purchase Price at the applicable Class B COC Closing, upon notice thereof delivered to the Class B Member Representative on or after the Scheduled Class B COC Buyout Date. If, following the Scheduled Class B COC Buyout Date, the Class B Members are able, using their respective reasonable best efforts, to remedy the Class B COC Cash Shortfall, then (A) the Class B Member Representative shall promptly deliver written notice thereof to NEP Member, (B) the applicable Class B COC Closing shall occur as promptly thereafter as practicable, and (C) at the applicable Class B COC Closing, the amount of the Class B COC Purchase Price and the

105

Issuance Price for Non-Voting NEP Common Units (or NEP Common Units, if requested pursuant to Section 7.04(b)) to be issued as payment (or partial payment) of the applicable Class B COC Purchase Price shall be the same as is set forth in the original Class B COC Notice.

(f)Each Member agrees to cooperate fully with the Company, the Managing Member, and NEP to effect the Class B COC Closing as reasonably requested, including using its reasonable best efforts to obtain all applicable Governmental Authorizations, terminating and releasing all Encumbrances on the applicable Class B Units (other than restrictions on transfer arising under this Agreement and under applicable securities Laws), and entering into any agreements and instruments and executing any certificates or other documents the Managing Member reasonably deems necessary or appropriate to consummate the Disposition of the applicable Class B Units (provided that the foregoing shall not require the Class B Members to take any actions to remedy any Class B COC Cash Shortfall other than seeking Qualifying Financing in accordance with Section 7.04(e)). The Class B Members and NEP agree to use commercially reasonable efforts to coordinate with the Transfer Agent to record the issuance of NEP Common Units and Non-Voting NEP Common Units, as the case may be, to the COC Member (or its nominee).

(g)Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Section 7.04(a), with respect to any and all Class B Units to be purchased pursuant to a Class B COC Option that are held directly or indirectly by any Blocker, so long as (i) an Investor Parent or any of its Affiliates Controls the Blocker Parent of such Blocker; (ii) at all times prior to the Class B COC Closing, the only assets of the applicable Blocker (other than cash) are Class B Units, which Class B Units shall be held by such Blocker in a Proportionate Class B Allocation; (iii) the applicable Blocker has engaged in no business activities other than its organizational activities and acquiring, financing, accepting, owning, and holding, directly or indirectly, Class B Units; and (iv) on the applicable Class B COC Closing Date, the applicable Blocker has no liabilities (other than liabilities for Current Blocker Taxes), then, if the Class B Member Representative provides notice to NEP Member within two (2) calendar days of receipt of such Class B COC Notice that it wishes for NEP Member (or its nominee) to acquire, by way of a Blocker Merger, all of the issued and outstanding Blocker Interests of such Blocker pursuant to the exercise of such Class B COC Option (which notice shall also set forth the number of Class B Units to be acquired by NEP Member (or its nominee) indirectly through such Blocker Merger and the number of Class B Units to be acquired directly from Class B Members, the total of which Class B Units shall equal the number of Class B Units set forth in the Class B COC Notice), NEP Member (or its nominee) and Blocker Parent shall effect NEP Member’s (or its nominee’s) acquisition of such Blocker Interests pursuant to a merger of a Blocker Merger Sub with and into such Blocker pursuant to a Blocker Merger, pursuant to which (A) all of the Blocker Interests of such Blocker held by Blocker Parent shall be cancelled and converted into the right to receive the Call Option Purchase Price (or applicable portion thereof) and (B) all right, title, and interest in and to the Class B Units held by such Blocker, free and clear of all Encumbrances (other than restrictions on transfer arising under applicable securities Laws), shall remain vested in the Blocker, on the same terms and subject to the same conditions as set forth herein for the purchase of Class B Units pursuant to the Class B COC Option. Investor and Blocker Parent shall indemnify and hold harmless NEP Member and its Affiliates from and against any and all Claims arising out of or relating to such Blocker or COC Member (including Claims arising out of or relating to Current Blocker Taxes). At the applicable Class B COC Closing, effective immediately upon consummation of such Blocker Merger, (1) the applicable Blocker shall survive such Blocker

106

Merger, and the applicable Blocker Merger Sub shall cease to exist; (2) Blocker Parent shall cease to be a member of, and shall cease to have any further right, title, or interest in such Blocker; (3) the applicable Blocker shall remain the sole record and beneficial owner of all of the outstanding Class B Units held by such Blocker, free and clear of all Encumbrances (other than restrictions on transfer arising under applicable securities Laws); and (4) NEP Member (or its Affiliate) shall be the sole legal and beneficial owner of all of the limited liability company interests of such Blocker. If the Class B Member Representative exercises the option to have Blocker Interests acquired pursuant to a Blocker Merger as set forth in this Section 7.04(g) (in respect of all or part of the Class B Units which are the subject of the relevant Class B COC Option), the applicable references elsewhere in this Section 7.04 to Class B Units or to a Class B Member selling Class B Units shall (to the extent relating to Class B Units to be purchased indirectly through the acquisition of Blocker Interests) be references to the acquisition of such Class B Units pursuant to a Blocker Merger on the terms set forth in this Section 7.04(g), and the other terms of this Section 7.04 shall apply mutatis mutandis, and Investor, the Class B Members, Blocker Parent, NEP Member and the applicable Affiliate of NEP Member will take all actions necessary to effect the Class B COC Closing pursuant to a Blocker Merger as set forth in this Section 7.04(g) rather than (or in combination with, as the case may be) pursuant to the purchase of Class B Units directly.

7.05 Non-Voting NEP Common Units.

(a)Subject to and in accordance with the terms of the NEP Limited Partnership Agreement, (i) a Non-Voting NEP Common Unit shall automatically convert into one (1) NEP Common Unit immediately upon the Disposition of such Non-Voting NEP Common Unit to any Person that is not an Affiliate of the Class B Member Disposing of such Non-Voting NEP Common Unit; and (ii) each Class B Member shall have the right, but not the obligation, to convert all or any portion of the Non-Voting NEP Common Units held by it into NEP Common Units on the date that is sixty-one (61) days following delivery to the Company and NEP by such Class B Member of a written election of conversion. NEP hereby agrees that it shall not, without the consent of the Class B Members, alter, amend, or waive any provision of the NEP Limited Partnership Agreement in a manner that would require the consent of the Non-Voting NEP Common Units if the Non-Voting NEP Common Units were outstanding and held solely by the Class B Members.

(b)In the event of a Disposition of Non-Voting NEP Common Units, NEP hereby agrees to use commercially reasonable efforts to facilitate the conversion of such Non-Voting NEP Common Units in connection with such Disposition, including coordinating with the Transfer Agent to facilitate such Disposition and to record the transfer and conversion of Non-Voting NEP Common Units in a manner that permits the sale of the Non-Voting NEP Common Units in market transactions.

Investor shall, promptly upon written request by NEP Member, reimburse NEP Member and its Affiliates for all reasonable and documented out-of-pocket costs, fees, and expenses (including attorneys’ fees and expenses), incurred by NEP Member or any of its Affiliates or any of the directors, officers, managers, members, partners, employees, stockholders, Representatives, advisors, or Affiliates of NEP Member or any of its Affiliates in connection with any such Person’s complying with the obligations under this Section 7.06(a).

The Managing Member and the Company agree that such cooperation shall be subject to Section 3.08 and on terms (including with respect to rights to indemnification) consistent with the cooperation provided by the Company and NEP under Section 5.04 of the Purchase Agreement, mutatis mutandis, in connection with any such financing.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the provisions of this Section 7.07(a) shall terminate and no longer be of any effect following the Flip Date.

(b)Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, and without limiting the remedies available to the Managing Member or any other Person in respect thereof, if and for so long as any Class B Member is in violation of the provisions of Section 7.07(a), the Managing Member shall be entitled to withhold from such Class B Member and its Affiliates holding Class B Units all distributions that they would otherwise be entitled to receive pursuant to Section 5.01 and Section 5.02, in each case, until such Class B Member has complied with the requirements of this Section 7.07.

7.08 Governmental Authorizations.

(a)In furtherance and not in limitation of each Member’s obligations pursuant to Section 7.02, Section 7.03, and Section 7.04, each Member shall cooperate with the Managing Member and each other Member and shall use reasonable best efforts to take or cause to be taken all actions, and to do or cause to be done all things, reasonably necessary, proper, or advisable on its part to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement as soon as reasonably practicable, including preparing and filing as promptly as reasonably practicable all documentation to obtain all Required Governmental Authorizations, including to the extent required under the HSR Act and by the FERC. The Company shall pay all filing fees to obtain such Required Governmental Authorizations.

(b)In furtherance and not in limitation of the foregoing, each of the Members agrees that, to the extent the Managing Member determines that any Required Governmental Authorization is needed in connection with the occurrence of a Distribution Adjustment Date or the consummation of the Call Option, the NEP Change of Control Option, or the Class B COC Option, the applicable Members (and their respective Subsidiaries, if applicable) shall file, or cause to be filed, all appropriate notifications, applications, and filings in connection therewith, including pursuant to the HSR Act and as may be required by the FERC, as promptly as practicable and shall promptly supply any additional information and documentary material that may be requested of such Person by the applicable Governmental Authorities in connection with

109

the HSR Act or any other Law.

Each party shall cause its counsel to supply to each other party copies of the date-stamped receipt copy of the cover letters delivering the filings or submissions required under the HSR Act to any Governmental Authority and shall provide prompt notification to the other party when it becomes aware that any consent or approval is obtained, taken, made, given, or denied, as applicable. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, the Managing Member shall have the principal responsibility for devising and implementing the strategy for obtaining any necessary Governmental Authorizations and shall take the lead in all meetings and communications with any Governmental Authority in connection with obtaining any necessary Governmental Authorizations; provided that no party shall participate in any meeting or substantive discussion with any Governmental Authority in respect of any such filings or related investigations or other inquires unless, to the extent not prohibited by Law, it consults with the other parties in advance and, to the extent permitted by the applicable Governmental Authority and Law, gives the other parties the opportunity to attend and participate in such meeting.

(c)To the extent the Managing Member determines that any Required Governmental Authorization is required under the HSR Act or other applicable Law, each of the Members agrees to use its reasonable best efforts to obtain early termination of the waiting period under the HSR Act (if available) and any other Law, and, in furtherance of the foregoing, each Member agrees to use its reasonable best efforts to avoid or eliminate as soon as possible each and every impediment under the HSR Act and any other Law that may be asserted by any Governmental Authority so as to enable the Members hereto to promptly consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement; provided, however, that, notwithstanding the foregoing, no Member (and no Parent, Subsidiary, or Affiliate of a Member) shall be required to take any of the following actions (or any action that would require a Member (or its Parent, Subsidiaries, Affiliates or, in the case of a Class B Member, any direct or indirect portfolio company of investment funds advised or managed by one or more Affiliates of such Class B Member or any investment of such Class B Member or an Affiliate of such Class B Member in connection therewith) to take any of the following actions): (i) committing to or effecting, by consent decree, hold separate orders, trust, or otherwise, the divestiture, sale, license, transfer, assignment, or other Disposition of assets or business of such Persons; (ii) terminating, relinquishing, modifying, transferring, assigning, restructuring, or waiving existing agreements, collaborations, contractual rights, obligations, or other arrangements of such Persons; (iii)

110

creating or consenting to create any contractual rights, obligations, tolling agreements, or other arrangements of such Persons, or (iv) otherwise limiting the freedom of action with respect to, any assets, rights, products, licenses, business, operations, or interests therein of any such Persons.

7.09 Liquidity Event.

(a)At any time following a Triggering Event Date, the Class B Member Representative shall be entitled to cause a sale of the Company by way of a sale of all of the Membership Interests of the Company or a merger of the Company (or such other form of business combination or otherwise) the structure of which shall be selected by the Class B Member Representative and approved by NEP Member (such approval not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) (any such transaction, a “Liquidity Event”); provided that in no event shall a Liquidity Event (y) take the form of a sale of assets of the Company or its Subsidiaries or (z) take a form that would otherwise result in material adverse tax, accounting, or regulatory consequences for the Managing Member that could be avoided or materially mitigated by adopting an alternative structure that is not materially less advantageous to the Class B Members. Without limiting the foregoing, the consummation of any Liquidity Event shall be subject to (i) receipt of all Governmental Authorizations required under applicable Law to be obtained in connection with such Liquidity Event and (ii) compliance with, or obtaining any required consents, approvals, or waivers under, any change of control or other applicable restrictions, prohibitions, or other requirements set forth in any Contractual Obligations or other material Contract to which the Company or any of its direct or indirect Subsidiaries or any Non-Controlled Entity is then a party.

(b)If the Class B Member Representative elects to cause the Company to undertake a Liquidity Event pursuant to this Section 7.09, then the Class B Member Representative shall provide prompt written notice thereof to the Managing Member and all other Members, and thereafter the Class B Member Representative shall have the right, subject to prior consultation with the Managing Member, to make decisions regarding structure and process, identify prospective purchasers, and negotiate the terms of such ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Event in good faith, and the Class B Member Representative shall use its reasonable best efforts to effect such Liquidity Event in a transaction that is tax efficient to Members (as a whole), does not discriminate among the Members as to any material terms, including as to the form of consideration (but taking into account the economic differences between, and relative value of, Class A Units and Class B Units), and otherwise is in accordance with this Section 7.09. The Class B Member Representative shall regularly consult and cooperate with the Managing Member with respect to the status of the sale process for such Liquidity Event, the identity of potential purchasers, and the terms and conditions of such Liquidity Event and related transaction documents (drafts of which shall be shared with the Managing Member, who shall be given a reasonable opportunity to review and comment thereon), and the Class B Member Representative shall consider in good faith any comments thereto received from the Managing Member; provided, however, that, except with respect to NEP Member’s right to approve (such approval not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) the structure of a Liquidity Event to the extent set forth in Section 7.09(a), no Member shall have any consent, voting, or appraisal rights with respect to the final terms of a Liquidity Event or have any right under this Agreement to object to a Liquidity Event that is completed in compliance with this Section 7.09. The Managing Member, the Company, and each other Member shall, and shall cause their

111

respective Representatives to, use commercially reasonable efforts to cooperate with the Class B Member Representative in pursuing and effecting any Liquidity Event. In furtherance of the foregoing, the Managing Member and the Company shall, and the Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause its Subsidiaries and Non-Controlled Entities to, take such action as the Class B Member Representative may reasonably request in connection with any proposed Liquidity Event to the extent permitted by applicable Law, including (i) engaging an investment banker or other Representatives selected by the Class B Member Representative (in consultation with the Managing Member) in connection with such Liquidity Event and (ii) subject to the limitations and conditions set forth in Section 3.07 and Section 3.08, (A) providing such financial and operational information relating to the Company and its Subsidiaries as the Class B Member Representative may request and (B) causing Representatives of the Company and its Subsidiaries to cooperate with the Class B Member Representative in a customary marketing process in connection with a proposed Liquidity Event, as may be reasonably requested by the Class B Member Representative (including, in each case, by participating in management presentations, preparing marketing materials, and making diligence materials available in an electronic data room). Each Member shall cause its applicable Controlled Affiliates, and shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause its applicable Affiliates that are not Controlled Affiliates, to deliver any consents or waivers required from such Affiliate (including of any preferential transfer rights, rights of first offer, rights of first refusal, and change of control or ownership provisions) under any Contract to which the Company or any of its direct or indirect Subsidiaries is a party or to which any of their assets is bound in connection with any Liquidity Event; provided that any such Affiliates shall be entitled to exercise all termination rights and other rights applicable to any Liquidity Event under the terms of such Contracts so long as such termination of any such Contract shall be effective on or after the ninetieth (90th) day following the consummation of such Liquidity Event.

(c)The Members will consent to, participate in, raise no objection against, and not impede or delay any such Liquidity Event and will take or cause to be taken all other actions to approve such Liquidity Event reasonably necessary or desirable to cause the consummation of such Liquidity Event on the terms proposed by the Class B Member Representative in accordance with this Section 7.09. The Members, including the Managing Member, will execute any applicable merger, securities purchase, recapitalization, or other agreement (other than an asset purchase agreement) negotiated in good faith by the Class B Member Representative in connection with any such Liquidity Event (such agreement, the “Liquidity Event Agreement”); provided, however, that (i) each Member shall make the same representations and warranties, covenants, and indemnities as each other Member; (ii) no Member shall be liable for the breach of any covenants, or inaccuracies in any representations or warranties, of any other Member and vice versa; (iii) in no event shall any Member be required to (A) agree to any non-competition covenants or any other restrictions on its ability to engage in any business in any jurisdiction, (B) enter into any agreements (other than the Liquidity Event Agreement) with, or agree to perform any services for, the acquirer in such Liquidity Event, or any of its Affiliates, including the Company or its Subsidiaries, or any other party to such Liquidity Event, or (C) make any representations, warranties, or covenants or provide indemnities as to any other Member (or the Membership Interests owned by any other Member); (iv) any liability relating to representations, warranties, and covenants (and related indemnities) or other indemnification obligations regarding the business of the Company and its Subsidiaries in connection with the Liquidity Event shall be shared by the Members pro rata on a several (but not joint) basis in proportion to the amount of proceeds received by each Member in the

112

Liquidity Event; and (v) in no event shall any Member be responsible for any liabilities or indemnities in connection with such Liquidity Event in excess of the amount of proceeds received by such Member in the Liquidity Event.

(d)In connection with any Liquidity Event, (i) the Class B Member Representative shall in good faith use its reasonable best efforts to maximize value to the Members (as a whole) in connection with any Liquidity Event (and in connection therewith, the Class B Member Representative may consider such factors as the Class B Member Representative determines in good faith to be necessary or appropriate, including with respect to the amount and form of consideration, timing, and transaction execution risk, including financing risk), (ii) each Member shall receive the same form of consideration as each other Member, and (iii) the amount of consideration to be received by each of the Members shall be calculated by taking the aggregate amount of proceeds received in such Liquidity Event and allocating such proceeds among the Members in accordance with the applicable distribution provisions set forth in Section 5.01.

(e)Investor hereby agrees that, in connection with the consummation of any Liquidity Event, Investor shall use all cash or other liquid consideration received upon a Liquidity Event (net of any deductions or withholdings required under applicable Law) and all other cash on hand of Investor to repay all of Investor’s then outstanding Indebtedness under any Class B Permitted Loan Financing (including any breakage costs, termination fees, or other payments that would be due or payable thereunder) and all other Indebtedness pursuant to which the Class B Units being acquired pursuant to such Liquidity Event are Encumbered, plus the amounts required to be paid by Investor constituting amounts owed by Investor as termination payments and unpaid amounts under any Interest Rate Hedging Transaction.

(f)Other than as provided in Section 7.09(e), all reasonable, documented, and out-of-pocket costs incurred by each Member or by the Company or its Subsidiaries in connection with a Liquidity Event shall be paid from the proceeds of such Liquidity Event prior to the distribution of any such proceeds to the Members.

(g)Notwithstanding anything contained in this Section 7.09 to the contrary, there shall be no liability or obligation on behalf of the Class B Member Representative if the Class B Member Representative determines, for any reason, not to consummate a Liquidity Event, and the Class B Member Representative shall be permitted to, and shall have the authority to cause the Company to, discontinue at any time any Liquidity Event. Under no circumstances shall this Section 7.09 be construed to grant to any Member any dissenter’s rights or appraisal rights or give any Member any right to vote in any Liquidity Event structured as a merger or consolidation, it being understood that the Members hereby expressly waive any rights that could be granted under Section 18-210 of the Act in connection with any Liquidity Event and grant to the Class B Member Representative the sole right to approve or consent to a merger or consolidation of the Company in connection with a Liquidity Event.

The Managing Member shall cause the Company to engage an independent accounting firm to prepare and timely file (on behalf of the Company) all federal, state, and local Tax returns required to be filed by the Company and its Subsidiaries and Non-Controlled Entities (other than Emerald Breeze Holdings). Each Member shall furnish to the Managing Member all pertinent information in its possession relating to the Company’s operations that is necessary to enable the Company’s Tax returns to be timely prepared and filed. The Company shall bear the costs of the preparation and filing of Tax returns by the Company and its Subsidiaries and Non-Controlled Entities (other than Emerald Breeze Holdings).

The Company shall provide the Members with final federal, state, and local income Tax information on or before August 15 of each calendar year.

(a)The Company shall make the following elections on the appropriate Tax returns:

(i)to adopt as the Company’s fiscal year the calendar year;

(ii)to adopt the accrual method of accounting;

(iii)if a distribution of the Company’s property occurs as described in Section 734 of the Code or upon a transfer of Membership Interest as described in Section 743 of the Code, an election pursuant to Section 754 of the Code to adjust the basis of the Company’s properties; provided that, notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall make an election under Section 754 of the Code with respect to the taxable year that includes the Additional Closing Date;

(b)Neither the Company nor any Member shall make (or consent to make) an election for the Company or any of its direct or indirect Subsidiaries or any Non-Controlled Entity to be (i) subject to Tax as an association for U.S. federal income Tax purposes or (ii) excluded from the application of the provisions of subchapter K of chapter 1 of subtitle A of the Code or any similar provisions of applicable state Law, and no provision of this Agreement shall be construed to sanction or approve such an election.

8.03 Partnership Representative.

(a)The Managing Member shall serve as the “partnership representative” of the Company within the meaning of Section 6223(a) of the Code (the “Partnership Representative”). The Partnership Representative shall inform each other Member of all material matters that may come to its attention in its capacity as the Partnership Representative by giving notice thereof on or before the fifth (5th) Business Day after becoming aware thereof and, within that time, shall forward to each other Member copies of all material written communications it may receive in that capacity. The Managing Member is hereby directed and authorized to take whatever steps it, in its reasonable discretion, deems necessary or desirable to perfect such designation, including filing any forms or documents with the Internal Revenue Service, designating an individual to serve as the sole individual through whom the Partnership Representative will act, and taking such other action as may from time to time be required under the Treasury Regulations. The Managing Member will remain as the Partnership Representative so long as it retains any ownership interests in the Company unless it requests that it not serve as Partnership Representative; provided, however, that, notwithstanding the foregoing, the Managing Member shall not be permitted to resign unless and until the Members have found a replacement Partnership Representative approved unanimously in writing by the Members.

(b)Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, and with the exception that the approval of Investor described in this paragraph is not required for any Guaranteed Tax Credit Dispute, the Partnership Representative must: (i) obtain the prior written approval of Investor (not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) with respect to (y) commencing any judicial or administrative action or appealing any adverse determination of a Governmental Authority, in each case relating to Taxes and (z) surrendering, settling or compromising any audit or proceeding relating to Taxes, in each case of clause (y) or (z), only to the extent such action, adverse determination, audit or proceeding, as applicable, relates to a taxable period during which Investor held Class B Units; and (ii) inform and consult with Investor, on a timely basis, regarding the status of investigations, audits, proceedings and negotiations with any Governmental Authority, in each case, to the extent relating to Taxes and a taxable period during which the Investor held Class B Units. Any reasonable, documented out-of-pocket cost or expense incurred by the Partnership Representative in connection with its duties, including the preparation for or pursuance of administrative or judicial proceedings, shall be paid by the Company. For the avoidance of doubt, the approval of Investor shall not be required pursuant to this Section 8.03 in connection with any Guaranteed Tax Credit Dispute; provided that the Partnership Representative shall keep Investor reasonably informed in connection with the developments in any Guaranteed Tax Credit Dispute and consider any reasonable comments received in connection therewith.

115

(c)The Partnership Representative may, in its reasonable discretion, make the election provided by Section 6221(b) of the Code to have Subchapter C of Chapter 63 of the Code not apply (the “Election Out”).

(d)If the Internal Revenue Service proposes an adjustment in the amount of any item of income, gain, loss, deduction, or credit of the Company, or any Member’s (or former Member’s) distributive share thereof, and such adjustment results in an “imputed underpayment” as described in Section 6225(b) of the Code (a “Covered Audit Adjustment”), subject to Section 6.03(n), the Partnership Representative may (but shall not be required to) elect, to the extent that such election is available (taking into account whether the Partnership Representative has received any needed information on a timely basis from the Members and former Members, if applicable), and the Election Out was not previously made, to apply the alternative method provided by Section 6226 of the Code (the “Alternative Method”). To the extent that the Partnership Representative does not elect the Alternative Method with respect to a Covered Audit Adjustment, the Partnership Representative shall use commercially reasonable efforts to (a) request information necessary to, and to make any modifications available under Sections 6225(c) of the Code to the extent that such modifications are available (taking into account whether the Partnership Representative has received any needed information on a timely basis from the Members and former Members) as would, reduce any Company Level Taxes payable by the Company with respect to the Covered Audit Adjustment, and (b) if requested by a Member, provide to such Member information allowing such Member to file an amended U.S. federal income Tax return, as described in Section 6225(c)(2) of the Code, to the extent that such amended return and payment of any related U.S. federal income Taxes would reduce any Company Level Taxes payable by the Company with respect to the Covered Audit Adjustment (after taking into account any modifications described in clause (a)). Similar procedures shall be followed in connection with any state or local income Tax audit that incorporates rules similar to Subchapter C of Chapter 63 of the Code.

(e)Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, any Taxes, penalties, and interest payable under the Subchapter C of Chapter 63 of the Code by the Company (“Company Level Taxes”) shall be treated as attributable to the Members (and former Members if applicable) of the Company, and the Partnership Representative shall cause the Company to allocate the burden of any such Company Level Taxes to those Members (and former Members if applicable) to whom such amounts are reasonably attributable (whether as a result of their status, actions, inactions, or otherwise), taking into account the effect of any modifications described in Section 8.03(d) that reduce the amount of Company Level Taxes. All Company Level Taxes allocated to a Member (or a former Member if applicable), at the option of the Managing Member (subject to Section 6.03(n)), shall (i) be promptly paid to the Company by such Member (or former Member if applicable) (“Option A”) or (ii) be paid by reducing the amount of the current or next succeeding distribution or distributions which would otherwise have been made to such Member pursuant to Section 5.01 or Section 5.02 and, if such distributions are not sufficient for that purpose, by reducing the proceeds of liquidation otherwise payable to such Member pursuant to Section 12.02 (“Option B”). If the Managing Member selects Option A, the Company’s payment of the Company Level Taxes allocated to the applicable Member (or former Member if applicable) shall be treated as a distribution to such Member (or former Member) (which reduces such Member’s Capital Account) and the payment by such Member (or former Member) to the Company shall be treated as a Capital Contribution for U.S. federal income Tax purposes (which increases such Member’s Capital Account);

116

provided that such payments shall not affect any other contributions to be made by, or the distributions and allocations to be made to the applicable Members (or former Member) under this Agreement. If the Managing Member selects Option B, the applicable Member shall for all purposes of this Agreement be treated as having received a distribution of the amount of its allocable share of the Company Level Taxes at the time such Company Level Taxes are paid by the Company (which distribution reduces such Member’s Capital Account). To the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law, each Member (whether or not such Member becomes a Member after the Effective Date) hereby agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Company and the other Members (or former Members if applicable) from and against any liability for Company Level Taxes allocated to such Member in accordance with this Section 8.03(e) (including, with respect to any former Member, any Company Level Taxes allocated to such former Member that are attributable to taxable periods (or portions thereof) during which such former Member was treated as holding an interest in the Company).

(f)If any Member intends to file a notice of inconsistent treatment under Section 6222(c) of the Code, such Member shall give reasonable notice under the circumstances to the other Members of such intent and the manner in which the Member’s intended treatment of an item is (or may be) inconsistent with the treatment of that item by the other Members.

(g)Except as may be required by applicable Law, the Managing Member and the Company shall not make any election or take any action, including such elections or actions specifically authorized under this Section 8.03, that reasonably would be expected to have a disproportionate adverse effect on Investor or its direct or indirect investors.

(h)Notwithstanding Section 6.03(n) or any other provision of this Agreement, if the Internal Revenue Service proposes an adjustment in the amount of any item of income, gain, loss, deduction, or credit of any Subsidiary or Non-Controlled Entity that is or was treated as a partnership for federal income tax purposes relating to any taxable period beginning before the Effective Date, and such adjustment results in an “imputed underpayment” as described in Section 6225(b) of the Code, the Managing Member shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause such Subsidiary or Non-Controlled Entity to make an election to apply the Alternative Method with respect to such imputed underpayment.

8.04 Certain Agreements. Each Member represents, as of the Effective Date, and covenants to the Company and each other Member that, during the period in which such Member holds a Membership Interest in the Company, (a) such Member’s ownership of a Membership Interest (and any indirect ownership of such Membership Interest) will not (i) during the applicable investment tax credit recapture period or any applicable depreciation recovery period (unless the applicable recovery period is under the “alternative depreciation system” under Section 168(g) of the Code) of a Tax Equity Entity with respect to any direct or indirect asset, cause any portion of the Company’s or any of its Subsidiaries’ assets or any assets of any Non-Controlled Entities or their respective Subsidiaries to be treated as “tax-exempt use property” within the meaning of Section 168(h) of the Code (including by reason of any Blocker’s being treated as or becoming at any time a “tax-exempt controlled entity” (within the meaning of Section 168(h)(6)(F) of the Code)) or (ii) result in a Tax Equity Entity having a direct or indirect owner that (A) is not “United States person” within the meaning of Code Section 7701(a)(30) (other than any such owner who holds its interest in the Tax Equity Entity indirectly through an entity classified as a U.S. corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes), (B) is subject to

117

withholding pursuant to Section 1446 of the Code with respect to its interest in the Company, or (C) during (y) the period that production Tax credits under Section 45 of the Code (or any successor provision) may be claimed with respect to the output of any direct or indirect asset of a Tax Equity Entity, or (z) the period that includes any applicable depreciation recovery period (unless the applicable recovery period is under the “alternative depreciation system” under Section 168(g) of the Code) of any direct or indirect asset of a Tax Equity Entity and continues until the one-year anniversary thereof, is a Related Party; and (b) such Member is not a “publicly traded partnership” (within the meaning of Section 7704 of the Code).

For so long as the Class B Units are held by Investor, the Managing Member will (i) calculate at least quarterly the Internal Rate of Return achieved by Investor and (ii) send Investor, within forty-five (45) days after the end of each Quarter, a report in the form of the IRR Report showing the Internal Rate of Return as of such date. The Managing Member will make its advisors available to answer any questions regarding the calculations contained in any such IRR Report.

(b)Calculation Rules and Conventions. The Managing Member will employ the following calculation rules and conventions in determining the Internal Rate of Return of a Class B Member:

118

(i)Continuity of Ownership. The Managing Member will treat ownership of each Class B Unit as being continuous from the applicable Acquisition Date with respect to such Class B Units to the date as of which the calculation is being made without regard to any change in ownership of such Class B Unit during such period.

(ii)Cash Flows. The “Cash Flows” taken into account in determining the Internal Rate of Return with respect to a Class B Unit shall consist solely of the sum of (x) the amount of the Capital Contribution per Class B Unit made (or deemed to be made) by the applicable Class B Member (or its predecessor in respect of such Class B Unit) on the Effective Date, Initial Closing Date, or, the Additional Closing Date, as applicable, in exchange for such Class B Unit on the Effective Date, Initial Closing Date, or, the Additional Closing Date, as applicable, (y) any additional Capital Contributions made by such Class B Member (or its predecessor in respect of such Class B Unit) pursuant to Section 4.04 in respect of such Class B Unit, and (z) all distributions paid by the Company to the applicable Class B Member (or its predecessor in respect of such Class B Unit), including (A) all distributions paid in respect of such Class B Unit pursuant to Section 5.01, Section 5.02, and Section 12.02 (including pursuant to the proviso set forth in Section 5.01(e)), (B) the amount of APA/CA Indemnity Payments paid to Class B Members pursuant to Section 6.04, and (C) amounts withheld from distributions pursuant to Section 5.05; provided, however, that in no event shall amounts paid to NEP Member pursuant to Section 5.06 be taken into account, or included as distributions, paid to NEP Member or any other NEP Class B Party. Any amount received by the Class B Members (or their predecessors in respect of Class B Units) that is in the nature of a recovery or replacement of, or indemnity or compensation for, and is the substantial economic equivalent of, an item that would otherwise be taken into account in the foregoing clauses (x), (y), or (z) (which for the avoidance of doubt, will not include any APA/CA Indemnity Payments or any recovery or replacement of, or indemnity or compensation for, actual, documented, out-of-pocket losses, costs, or expenses of the Class B Members) will be deemed received for purposes of the calculation of the Internal Rate of Return on the date so received by such Class B Member (or its predecessor or nominee).

(c)Any dispute by a Class B Member of any item or procedure or calculation of, or which affects, the achievement of the Internal Rate of Return contained in any notice or report delivered to the Class B Members will be disputed in accordance with the dispute resolution mechanism set forth in Article 11.

DISPUTE RESOLUTION

11.01 Disputes. This Article 11 shall apply to any dispute arising under or related to this Agreement (whether arising in contract, tort, or otherwise, and whether arising at law or in equity), including (a) any dispute regarding the construction, interpretation, performance, validity, or enforceability of any provision of this Agreement or whether any Person is in compliance with, or breach of, any provisions of this Agreement, and (b) subject to Section 11.02, any deadlock among the Members with respect to any matter subject to a vote of the Members, and (c) the applicability of this Article 11 to a particular dispute. Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Article 11 shall not apply to any matters that, pursuant to the provisions of this

124

Agreement, are to be determined solely by the Managing Member. Any dispute to which this Article 11 applies is referred to herein as a “Dispute.” With respect to a particular Dispute, each Member that is a party to such Dispute is referred to herein as a “Disputing Member.” The provisions of this Article 11 shall be the exclusive method of resolving Disputes.

11.02 Negotiation to Resolve Disputes. If a Dispute arises, the Disputing Members (or agents thereof) shall promptly meet (whether by telephone or in person) in a good faith attempt to resolve the Dispute.

11.03 Courts. If a Dispute is still unresolved following ten (10) Business Days after the Disputing Members attempted in good faith to resolve the Dispute in accordance with Section 11.02, then any of such Disputing Members may submit such Dispute to the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware or, in the event that such court does not have jurisdiction over the subject matter of such dispute, to another court of the State of Delaware or a U.S. federal court located in the State of Delaware (collectively, “Delaware Courts”). Each of the Members irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of, and agrees not to commence any action, suit, or proceeding relating to a Dispute except in, the Delaware Courts and hereby consents to service of process in any such Dispute by the delivery of such process to such party at the address and in the manner provided in Section 13.01. Each of the Members hereby irrevocably and unconditionally waives any objection to the laying of venue in any Dispute in the Delaware Courts and hereby further irrevocably and unconditionally waives and agrees not to plead or claim in any such court that any action, suit, or proceeding brought in any such court has been brought in an inconvenient forum. EACH MEMBER IRREVOCABLY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION, SUIT, OR PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF, RELATING TO, OR OTHERWISE WITH RESPECT TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY TRANSACTION CONTEMPLATED HEREBY.

11.04 Specific Performance. The Members understand and agree that (a) irreparable damage would occur in the event that any provision of this Agreement were not performed in accordance with its specific terms, (b) although monetary damages may be available for the breach of such covenants and agreements, such monetary damages are not intended to and do not adequately compensate for the harm that would result from a breach of this Agreement, would be an inadequate remedy therefor and shall not be construed to diminish or otherwise impair in any respect any Member’s or the Company’s right to specific performance, and (c) the right of specific performance is an integral part of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and without that right none of the Members would have entered into this Agreement. It is accordingly agreed that, in addition to any other remedy that may be available to it, including monetary damages, each of the Members and the Company shall be entitled to an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this Agreement. Each of the Members further agrees that neither the Company nor any Member shall be required to obtain, furnish, or post any bond or similar instrument in connection with or as a condition to obtaining any remedy referred to in this Section 11.04, and each Member waives any objection to the imposition of such relief or any

125

right it may have to require the obtaining, furnishing, or posting of any such bond or similar instrument.

ARTICLE 12
DISSOLUTION, WINDING-UP AND TERMINATION

12.01 Dissolution. The Company shall dissolve and its affairs shall be wound up on the first to occur of the following events (each a “Dissolution Event”):

(a)consent of NEP Member and Class B Member Approval; or

(b)an event that makes it unlawful for the business of the Company to be carried on; provided that, if such an event occurs, then NEP Member and the Class B Member Representative shall negotiate in good faith to determine a workaround to allow the business of the Company to be lawfully carried on and such event shall not be deemed a “Dissolution Event” unless and until the Members mutually agree that no such workaround is reasonably feasible.

Each Member hereby expressly waives its right to make an application for, or otherwise seek or pursue, the dissolution of the Company pursuant to Section 18-802 of the Act.

12.02 Winding-Up and Termination.

(a)On the occurrence of a Dissolution Event, the Managing Member shall, or shall designate another Person to, serve as liquidator. The liquidator shall proceed diligently to wind up the affairs of the Company and make final distributions as provided herein and in the Act. The costs of winding-up shall be borne as a Company expense. Until final distribution, the liquidator shall continue to operate the Company properties with all of the power and authority of the Members. The steps to be accomplished by the liquidator are as follows:

(i)as promptly as possible after dissolution and again after final winding-up, the liquidator shall cause a proper accounting to be made by a recognized firm of certified public accountants of the liquidator’s choosing of the Company’s assets,

127

liabilities, and operations through the last calendar day of the month in which the dissolution occurs or the final winding-up is completed, as applicable;

(ii)the liquidator shall discharge from Company funds all of the Indebtedness of the Company and other debts, liabilities, expenses, and obligations of the Company (including all expenses incurred in winding-up and any loans described in Section 4.05) or otherwise make adequate provision for payment and discharge thereof (including the establishment of a cash escrow fund for contingent liabilities in such amount and for such term as the liquidator may reasonably determine); and

(iii)all remaining assets of the Company shall be distributed to the Members as follows:

(A)the liquidator may sell any or all Company property, including to Members, and any resulting gain or loss from each sale shall be computed and allocated to the Capital Accounts of the Members in accordance with Section 12.02(b);

(B)with respect to all Company property that has not been sold, the fair market value of that property shall be determined and the Capital Accounts of the Members shall be adjusted to reflect the manner in which the unrealized income, gain, loss, and deduction inherent in property that has not been previously reflected in the Capital Accounts would be allocated among the Members in accordance with Section 12.02(b) if there were a taxable Disposition of that property for the fair market value of that property on the date of distribution, as determined by the Managing Member in its reasonable discretion (it being agreed by the Members that a determination by the Managing Member that the fair market value of any such property equals the value of such property reflected in current financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP shall be deemed reasonable); and

(C)Company property (including cash) shall be distributed among the Members pro rata in accordance with the positive balances, if any, of each Member’s Capital Account; and those distributions shall be made before the end of the taxable year in which liquidation of the Company occurs or, if later, within ninety (90) days after the date of the liquidation of the Company.

(iv)If, after giving effect to all allocations, distributions and contributions for all periods (other than those required by this Section 12.02(a)(iv)), NEP Member has a deficit in its Capital Account balance following the “liquidation,” within the meaning of Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(g), of NEP Member’s Membership Interest, NEP Member will be obligated to contribute cash to the Company in an amount equal to such deficit balance by the end of the Fiscal Year of the Company during which the liquidation of the Company occurs, or if later, within ninety (90) days after the date of such liquidation, except that the restoration obligation of NEP Member in the aggregate pursuant to this Section 12.02(a)(iv) shall not be more than five percent (5%) of NEP Member’s Effective Date Contribution Amount. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (A) NEP Member will have the unilateral right by notice to the Managing

128

Member to (1) increase the amount of its deficit restoration obligation over the amount described in the immediately preceding sentence or (2) decrease the amount of, or eliminate, its deficit restoration obligation at any time in accordance with Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(f); (B) after the Flip Date, at the end of any Fiscal Year in which NEP Member’s deficit restoration obligation exceeds the absolute value of NEP Member’s deficit Capital Account balance, such deficit restoration obligation shall be automatically reduced in accordance with Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(f) to equal such absolute value; and (C) NEP Member’s deficit restoration obligation will be eliminated in accordance with Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(f) on the first date on or after the Flip Date on which the Capital Account balance of NEP Member is equal to or greater than zero. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, no other Member shall have any obligation to restore any deficit in its Capital Account balance unless and until such deficit restoration obligation is consented to in writing by the Managing Member.

(b)Notwithstanding anything in Section 5.03 to the contrary, in the Fiscal Year or other applicable period in which a Dissolution Event occurs, items of income, gain, loss, and deduction shall be allocated among the Members in a manner such that the Capital Account of each Member, immediately after giving effect to such allocation, is, as nearly as possible, equal (proportionately) to the amount that would be distributed to such Member if the proceeds were distributed in the following order: (i) first, to each Member based upon its respective Unreturned Contribution Percentage until the amount distributed to such Member equals the aggregate Unreturned Contribution of such Member; (ii) second, to the Class B Members (including, for the avoidance of doubt, NEP Class B Parties), pro rata in accordance with their respective Class B Percentage Interests, until such Class B Members have received distributions pursuant to this clause (ii) that, together with any amounts distributed pursuant to clause (i), results in an Internal Rate of Return to such Class B Members, measured from the applicable Acquisition Date to the date of dissolution, of six and nine hundred thirty-one thousandths percent (6.931%); and (iii) third, any and all remaining proceeds after payment of the amounts specified in clauses (i) and (ii), to the Class A Members, pro rata in accordance with their respective Class A Percentage Interests; provided that such allocations shall be made among the Members in such a manner to ensure, to the nearest extent possible, that the aggregate amount distributable to the Class B Members pursuant to such clauses does not cause the total proceeds distributable to such Class B Members pursuant to Section 12.02(a)(iii)(C) to exceed ninety-nine percent (99%) of such proceeds.

(c)The distribution of cash or property to a Member in accordance with the provisions of this Section 12.02 constitutes a complete return to the Member of its Capital Contributions and a complete distribution to the Member of its Membership Interest and all the Company’s property and constitutes a compromise to which all Members have consented pursuant to Section 18-502(b) of the Act. To the extent that a Member returns funds to the Company, it has no claim against any other Member for those funds.

(d)No dissolution or termination of the Company shall relieve a Member from any obligation to the extent such obligation has accrued as of the date of such dissolution or termination. Upon such termination, any books and records of the Company that the liquidator reasonably determines may ever be needed again by one or more Persons who were Members as of the dissolution or termination shall be retained by the Managing Member or its designee, who

129

shall keep such books and records (subject to review by any Person that was a Member at the time of dissolution) for a period at least three (3) years. After the expiration of such period of three (3) years, if the Managing Member (or its designee) no longer agrees to keep such books and records, it shall offer the Persons who were Members at the time of dissolution or termination a reasonable opportunity to take over such custody, (i) shall deliver such books and records to such Persons if they elect to take over such custody (or as all of such Persons otherwise direct) and, upon request by any other Person that elects to take custody (and at such other Person’s cost), deliver a copy of such books and records to such other Person, or (ii) may destroy such books and records if no such Person so elects.

12.03 Deficit Capital Accounts. Except as provided in Section 12.02(a)(iv), no Member will be required to pay to the Company, to any other Member or to any third party any deficit balance that may exist from time to time in its or another Member’s Capital Account.

12.04 Certificate of Cancellation. On completion of the distribution of Company assets as provided herein, the Managing Member shall file a certificate of cancellation with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware, cancel any other filings made pursuant to Section 2.06, and take such other actions as may be necessary to terminate the existence of the Company. Upon the filing of such certificate of cancellation, the existence of the Company shall terminate (and the Term shall end), except as may be otherwise provided by the Act or other applicable Law.

ARTICLE 13
GENERAL PROVISIONS

13.01 Notices. Except as expressly set forth to the contrary in this Agreement, all notices, requests, or consents provided for or permitted to be given under this Agreement must be in writing and must be delivered to the recipient by electronic mail (a copy of which may be delivered in person or by courier or mail). A notice, request, or consent given under this Agreement is effective on receipt by the applicable Member. All notices, requests, and consents to be sent to a Member must be sent to or made at the addresses given for that Member on Exhibit A or such other address as that Member may specify by notice to the Managing Member and the other Members. Any notice, request, or consent to the Company must be given to all of the Members. Whenever any notice is required to be given by Law, the Delaware Certificate, or this Agreement, a written waiver thereof, signed by the Person entitled to notice, whether before or after the time stated therein, shall be deemed equivalent to the giving of such notice.

13.02 Entire Agreement; Superseding Effect. This Agreement, the ▇▇▇▇/NEP APA, the Contribution Agreement and the other Transaction Documents (as that term is defined in the Purchase Agreement) constitute the entire agreement of the Members and their Affiliates relating to the Company and the transactions contemplated hereby and supersede all provisions and concepts contained in all prior agreements.

13.03 Effect of Waiver or Consent. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, a waiver or consent, express or implied, to or of any breach or default by any Member in the performance by that Member of its obligations with respect to the Company is not a consent or waiver to or of any other breach or default in the performance by that Member of the same or any other obligations of that Member with respect to the Company. Except as otherwise

130

provided in this Agreement, failure on the part of a Member to complain of any act of any Member or to declare any Member in default with respect to the Company, irrespective of how long that failure continues, does not constitute a waiver by that Member of its rights with respect to that default until the applicable statute of limitations has run.

13.04 Amendment or Restatement. Each of this Agreement and the Delaware Certificate may, subject to Section 6.03(a), be amended or restated only by a written instrument executed (or, in the case of the Delaware Certificate, approved) by the Managing Member. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (a) the Managing Member may amend this Agreement without the approval of any Members (i) to implement the valid admission of New Members or Assignees as Members; (ii) to correct typographical, formatting, cross-referencing, or other similar errors; and (iii) to update Exhibit A from time to time to reflect the valid admission of New Members, the valid admission of Assignees as Members, the making of additional Capital Contributions by Members, the issuances of Class A Units, Class B Units, or other classes or groups of Membership Interests, and the Disposition of Membership Interests, so long as such transactions were approved and consummated in accordance with the terms of this Agreement; and (b) if the Managing Member determines that any amendment of this Agreement is necessary to satisfy any Law, the Members shall negotiate in good faith to enter into an amendment of this Agreement to satisfy such Law that is mutually agreeable.

13.05 Binding Effect. Subject to the restrictions on Dispositions set forth in this Agreement, this Agreement is binding on and shall inure to the benefit of the Members and their respective successors and permitted assigns.

13.06 Governing Law; Severability. THIS AGREEMENT, AND ANY CLAIM ARISING OUT OF, RELATING TO OR OTHERWISE WITH RESPECT TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY TRANSACTION CONTEMPLATED HEREBY, IS GOVERNED BY AND SHALL BE CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF DELAWARE, EXCLUDING ANY CONFLICT-OF-LAWS RULE OR PRINCIPLE THAT MIGHT REFER THE GOVERNANCE OR THE CONSTRUCTION OF THIS AGREEMENT TO THE LAW OF ANOTHER JURISDICTION. In the event of a direct conflict between the provisions of this Agreement and any mandatory, non-waivable provision of the Act, such provision of the Act shall control. If any provision of the Act provides that it may be varied or superseded in a limited liability company agreement (or otherwise by agreement of the members or managers of a limited liability company), such provision shall be deemed superseded and waived in its entirety if this Agreement contains a provision addressing the same issue or subject matter. If any provision of this Agreement or the application thereof to any Member or circumstance is held invalid or unenforceable to any extent, (a) the remainder of this Agreement and the application of that provision to other Members or circumstances is not affected thereby, and (b) the Members shall negotiate in good faith to replace that provision with a new provision that is valid and enforceable and that puts the Members in substantially the same economic, business, and legal position as they would have been in if the original provision had been valid and enforceable.

13.07 Further Assurances. In connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby, each Member shall execute and deliver any additional documents and instruments and perform any additional acts that may be necessary or appropriate to effectuate and perform the provisions of this Agreement and those transactions; provided, however, that

131

this Section 13.07 shall not obligate a Member to furnish guarantees or other credit supports by such Member’s Parent or other Affiliates.

13.08 Appointment of Class B Member Representative.

(a)Effective as of the Initial Closing, each Class B Member other than the NEP Class B Parties hereby irrevocably constitutes and appoints the Class B Member Representative as the true and lawful agent and attorney-in-fact of such Class B Member, with full power of substitution to act jointly in the name, place, and stead of such Class B Member to act on behalf of such Class B Member in any litigation or arbitration involving this Agreement, to do or refrain from doing all such further acts and things, and to execute all such documents as the Class B Member Representative shall deem necessary or appropriate in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, including the power to (i) execute and deliver all amendments, waivers, ancillary agreements, certificates, and documents that the Class B Member Representative deems necessary or appropriate in connection with the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, (ii) grant any and all approvals or consents on behalf of such Class B Member pursuant to this Agreement, and any and all other matters requiring the consent or approval of such Class B Member under this Agreement or any other agreement, instrument, or document contemplated hereby or in connection with the Class B Units held by such Class B Member, other than any such matter that requires consent of any particular Class B Member, (iii) receive funds, make payments of funds, and withhold a portion of any amounts to be paid to such Class B Member hereunder or any other payment to be made by or on behalf of such Class B Member pursuant to this Agreement, including amounts required to pay the fees and expenses of professionals incurred by the Class B Members in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, (iv) do or refrain from doing any further act or deed on behalf of such Class B Member that the Class B Member Representative deems necessary or appropriate in its sole discretion relating to the subject matter of this Agreement, and (v) receive service of process in connection with any claims under this Agreement. Initial Investor is hereby appointed as the initial Class B Member Representative.

(b)The appointment of the Class B Member Representative hereunder shall be deemed coupled with an interest and shall be irrevocable, shall survive the death, incompetence, bankruptcy or liquidation of any Class B Member bound by Section 13.08(a) and shall be binding on any successor thereto; provided, however, that the Class B Member Representative’s appointment hereto shall terminate automatically when the Class B Member Representative is no longer the record owner of any Class B Units or is no longer the managing member or general partner that Controls a Class B Member that owns Class B Units. Initial Investor shall have the right to designate a successor Class B Member Representative upon notice delivered to the Managing Member not less than ten (10) Business Days in advance of such designation; provided that the Person appointed to serve as successor Class B Member Representative must be a record owner of Class B Units or the managing member or general partner that Controls a Class B Member that owns Class B Units. The Class B Members other than the NEP Class B Parties hereby confirm all that the Class B Member Representative shall do or cause to be done by virtue of its appointment hereby as the Class B Member Representative. All actions taken by the Class B Member Representative under this Agreement shall be binding upon each Class B Member other than the NEP Class B Parties and such Class B Member’s successors as if expressly confirmed and ratified in writing by such Class B Member, and all defenses that may be available to such Class B Member to contest, negate, or disaffirm

132

the action of the Class B Member Representative taken in good faith under this Agreement are waived.

(c)The Company, NEP Member, NEP, and any other Person may conclusively and absolutely rely, without inquiry and without any liability whatsoever, upon any action of the Class B Member Representative in all matters referred to herein, including that the Class B Member Representative has obtained any prior approval or consent of the Class B Members other than the NEP Class B Parties as may be required, under this Agreement or otherwise, to take any such action. Neither the Company, NEP Member, NEP, nor any other Person will be liable to any Class B Member, any of Affiliate thereof, or any other Person as a result of, in connection with, or relating to the performance of the Class B Member Representative’s duties and obligations under this Agreement, including with respect to any errors in judgment, negligence, oversight, breach of duty, or otherwise of the Class B Member Representative.

13.09 Article 8 of the Uniform Commercial Code. No Member may elect to cause any Membership Interest or other Equity Interest held by a Class B Member to constitute a “security” within the meaning of Article 8 of the Uniform Commercial Code as in effect from time to time in the State of Delaware or Article 8 of the Uniform Commercial Code of any other applicable jurisdiction.

13.10 Waiver of Certain Rights. Each Member irrevocably waives any right it may have to maintain any action for dissolution of the Company or for partition of the property of the Company.

13.11 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts with the same effect as if all signing parties had signed the same document. All counterparts shall be construed together and constitute the same instrument.

13.12 Expenses. Except as otherwise provided in Section 7.06, each Member shall bear its own transaction costs and any other costs and expenses incurred in connection with being a Member, holding its Membership Interest, and administering its rights and obligations under this Agreement.

13.13 Public Announcements. No press release or other public announcement or public statement or comment in response to any inquiry relating to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby shall be issued or made by any Member or any of its Affiliates without the mutual consent of the other Members (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned, or delayed); provided, however, that a press release or other public announcement or regulatory filing, statement, or comment may be made without such consent if it is made in order to comply with applicable Laws or the rules of an applicable National Securities Exchange.
