(b)Actual Closing Schedule. As soon as practicable, but not later than sixty (60) days after the Closing Date (the “Delivery Deadline”), Buyer shall prepare in good faith and deliver to Seller a schedule (the “Actual Closing Schedule”) setting forth Buyer’s good faith determination of (i) (x) the amount of Closing Cash, (y) the amount of Closing Indebtedness and (z) the amount of Closing Net Working Capital, (ii) the amount of Closing Transaction Expenses, and (iii) the Purchase Price resulting therefrom, in each case, together with reasonably detailed supporting documents for the calculation thereof; provided, however, that if Buyer fails to deliver the Actual Closing Schedule in accordance with the foregoing on or prior to the Delivery Deadline, then the Estimated Closing Schedule shall be deemed to be the Actual Closing Schedule, and Seller may deliver a Protest Notice with respect thereto in accordance with Section 2.4(d). The Parties acknowledge and agree that the intent of the Parties is to determine, (A) the Closing Cash, Closing Indebtedness and Closing Net Working Capital, (B) the Closing Transaction Expenses, and (C) the Purchase Price resulting therefrom, in each case, in accordance with the definitions thereof set forth herein and the Accounting Principles, and not to permit the use or introduction of any other accounting principles, practices, policies, procedures, conventions, classifications, estimation techniques, judgments or methodologies.

(c)Reasonable Access. After delivery of the Actual Closing Schedule (or the Delivery Deadline, if Buyer fails to deliver the Actual Closing Schedule by the Delivery Deadline), Buyer shall, and shall cause the Company Entities to, cooperate and provide to Seller and its Representatives all information, records, data and working papers (including any such materials prepared by outside accountants or other advisors) necessary for the preparation of the Actual Closing Schedule and the calculation of the Purchase Price and shall make available, during normal business hours, all personnel (including outside accountants and other advisors), in each case as may be reasonably requested by Seller in connection with its review of the Actual Closing Schedule and the resolution of any disputes with respect thereto.

(d)Protest Notice. Within thirty (30) days after delivery of the Actual Closing Schedule (or the Delivery Deadline, if ▇▇▇▇▇ fails to deliver the Actual Closing Schedule by the Delivery Deadline), Seller may deliver written notice (the “Protest Notice”) to Buyer of any disagreement that Seller may have as to the Actual Closing Schedule setting forth in reasonable detail the items in dispute. If Seller fails to deliver a Protest Notice in respect of the Actual Closing Schedule on or before the date which is thirty (30) days after delivery of the Actual Closing Schedule (or the Delivery Deadline, if Buyer fails to deliver the Actual Closing Schedule by the Delivery Deadline), the Closing Cash, the Closing Indebtedness, the Closing Net

Working Capital, Closing Transaction Expenses and the Purchase Price resulting therefrom as set forth on the Actual Closing Schedule shall be final, binding and non-appealable by the Parties.

(e)Resolution of Protest. If a Protest Notice is timely delivered in accordance with Section 2.4(d), Seller and Buyer shall promptly negotiate in good faith to resolve all items disputed by Seller in the Protest Notice. If Buyer and Seller are unable to resolve in writing all items disputed by Seller in the Protest Notice within thirty (30) days after ▇▇▇▇▇’s receipt of the Protest Notice, then either Seller or Buyer shall have the right to cause the Parties to jointly engage ▇▇▇▇▇ & ▇▇▇▇▇ LLP, or if such firm is unable or unwilling to accept its appointment, an independent nationally recognized accounting firm with experience in such matters and that is mutually agreed upon by Seller and Buyer (in either case, the “Accounting Firm”), to resolve the remaining disputed items. The Accounting Firm shall act as an expert (and not an arbitrator) to determine, based solely on presentations and submissions by Seller and Buyer and not by independent review, only those items still in dispute, in each case, in accordance with the applicable definitions set forth herein and the Accounting Principles (and not with the use or introduction of any other accounting principles, practices, policies, procedures, conventions, classifications, estimation techniques, judgments or methodologies). All discussions and presentations by Seller or Buyer to the Accounting Firm must take place in the presence (including by telephone) of the other Party, and all submissions made by Seller or Buyer to the Accounting Firm must be concurrently delivered to the other Party. All presentations and submissions by Seller and ▇▇▇▇▇ shall be made to the Accounting Firm no later than fifteen (15) days after the engagement of the Accounting Firm, and the Accounting Firm shall be instructed by Seller and Buyer to render its written decision with respect to only those items still in dispute no later than fifteen (15) days thereafter (it being acknowledged and agreed that the failure of the Accounting Firm to timely deliver its written decision shall not render the determination of the Accounting Firm invalid). In resolving any disputed item, the Accounting Firm may not assign a value to any item greater than the maximum value for such item claimed by either Party or less than the minimum value of such item claimed by either Party. All determinations made by the Accounting Firm in its written decision will be final, binding and non-appealable by the Parties. Judgment may be entered upon the written decision of the Accounting Firm in any court having jurisdiction over the Party against which such determination is to be enforced. The fees and expenses of the Accounting Firm shall be allocated between Buyer and Seller (as determined by the Accounting Firm) so that Seller’s share of such fees and expenses shall be equal to the product of (i) the aggregate amount of such fees and expenses, and (ii) a fraction, the numerator of which is the aggregate amount in dispute that is ultimately unsuccessfully disputed by Seller and the denominator of which is the total amount in dispute submitted to the Accounting Firm. The balance of such fees and expenses shall be paid by Buyer. The term “Final Closing Schedule,” as used in this Agreement, shall mean the Actual Closing Schedule if deemed final in accordance with Section 2.4(d) or the definitive Final Closing Schedule agreed to in writing by Seller and Buyer or resulting from the determinations made by the Accounting Firm in accordance with this Section 2.4(e).

(f)Payment. Within five (5) Business Days after the determination of a Final Closing Schedule:

(i)if the Estimated Purchase Price is greater than the Purchase Price, then such difference, up to the amount of the Adjustment Escrow Deposit, shall be disbursed from the Adjustment Escrow Account to Buyer; or

(ii)if the Estimated Purchase Price is less than the Purchase Price, then Buyer shall pay to the Subsidiary Seller such difference by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account designated by Seller; provided, however, that in no event will Buyer be obligated under this Section 2.4(f)(ii) to pay to the Subsidiary Seller an amount in excess of the amount of the Adjustment Escrow Deposit.

(g)Adjustment Escrow. Within five (5) Business Days after the determination of the Final Closing Schedule, Buyer and Seller shall deliver a joint written instruction to the Escrow Agent instructing it to disburse all of the funds in the Adjustment Escrow Account as follows: (i) to Buyer, the amount (if any) payable to Buyer pursuant to Section 2.4(f)(i), and (ii) to the Subsidiary Seller, the remaining funds in the Adjustment Escrow Account by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the Subsidiary Seller to an account designated by Seller.

(h)Exclusive Remedy. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, except with respect to Retained Rights, (i) the process and adjustment set forth in this Section 2.4 shall be the sole and exclusive remedy of the Parties with respect to items required hereunder to be included or reflected in the calculation of the Purchase Price and (ii) (A) Buyer’s right to receive a disbursement from the Adjustment Escrow Account pursuant to Section 2.4(f)(i) shall be Buyer’s sole and exclusive remedy in the event that the Purchase Price is less than the Estimated Purchase Price (and in no event shall any Buyer Related Party have any remedy, recourse or entitlement whatsoever, whether at law or in equity, against any Seller Related Party (other than Seller solely with respect to its obligation to deliver a joint written instruction to the Escrow Agent pursuant to Section 2.4(g)(i)) with respect thereto) and (B) Seller’s rights to receive a payment from Buyer pursuant to Section 2.4(f)(ii) and a disbursement of all of the funds in the Adjustment Escrow Account pursuant to Section 2.4(g) shall be Seller’s exclusive remedies in the event that the Estimated Purchase Price is less than the Purchase Price (and in no event shall any Seller Related Party have any remedy, recourse or entitlement whatsoever, whether at law or in equity, against any Buyer Related Party (other than Buyer subject to the foregoing limitations) with respect thereto).

Section 2.5Purchase Price Allocation. Within 120 days of the Final Closing Schedule being determined pursuant to Section 2.4, Buyer shall prepare and deliver to Seller a proposed allocation schedule (the “Proposed Allocation Schedule”) prepared in accordance with (i) Section 1060 of the Code, (ii) the Treasury Regulations thereunder and (iii) the methodology set forth in Section 2.5 of the Seller Disclosure Schedules (clauses (i), (ii) and (iii), collectively, the “PPA Methodology”) further allocating the Purchase Price (plus any liabilities taken into account as consideration for the Project Holding Company Interests under applicable Tax Law) among the separate classes of assets of the Project Holding Company. Seller shall have thirty (30) days following receipt of the Proposed Allocation Schedule to review and comment thereon. If Seller does not provide any comments within such thirty (30) day period, the Proposed Allocation Schedule shall become final (the “Final Allocation Schedule”). If Seller does provide comments within such thirty (30) day period, Seller and ▇▇▇▇▇ will negotiate in good faith to resolve any such comments within the thirty (30) days following the receipt by Buyer of Seller’s comments, and upon any such resolution, the Proposed Allocation Schedule, as so amended, shall become the Final Allocation Schedule. The Final Allocation Schedule shall be revised in accordance with the PPA Methodology to take into account any subsequent adjustments to the Purchase Price. If Seller and ▇▇▇▇▇ are unable to reach an agreement as to any such comments within such thirty (30) day period, then either Seller or Buyer may engage the Accounting Firm to resolve any such dispute. The Party engaging the Accounting Firm shall provide prompt written notice to the other Party in respect of such engagement. The Accounting Firm shall within thirty (30) days resolve the disagreement between the Parties in accordance with the PPA Methodology and determine the appropriate Final Allocation Schedule. The fees, costs and expenses of the Accounting Firm incurred shall be paid fifty percent (50%) by Seller and fifty percent (50%) by Buyer. Seller and Buyer agree to report on their respective Tax Returns based on the Final Allocation Schedule as ultimately agreed to or as determined by the Accounting Firm pursuant to this Section 2.5 and neither Seller nor Buyer shall take any position that is inconsistent with the Final Allocation Schedule as ultimately agreed to or as determined by the Accounting Firm pursuant to this Section 2.5 except as otherwise required by a “determination” as defined in Section 1313 of the Code (or any comparable provision of state or local Tax Law).

Section 2.6Transfer Taxes. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, responsibility for any and all Transfer Taxes imposed as a result of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement shall be borne solely by Buyer. The Parties will reasonably cooperate in the preparation and filing of any Tax Returns or other documentation in connection with any Transfer Taxes subject to this Section 2.6, including joining in the execution of any such Tax Returns and other documentation to the extent required by Law.

Section 2.7Withholding. Buyer and the Company Entities shall be entitled to deduct and withhold (or cause to be deducted and withheld) from any amount payable pursuant to this Agreement such amounts as are required to be deducted and withheld under applicable Tax Law; provided, however, that except with respect to any withholding required as a result of the failure of Seller to provide an IRS Form W-9 as required under Section 2.3(b)(v), Buyer shall give written notice to Seller prior to any deduction or withholding, and shall use commercially reasonable efforts to provide such notice within at least (3) Business Days of such deduction or withholding in reasonable detail and shall reasonably cooperate with Seller to reduce, mitigate or eliminate any withholding that otherwise would be required. Amounts withheld in accordance with this Section 2.7 shall be timely paid over to the appropriate Governmental Authority and, upon timely payment to such Governmental Authority, shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to the Person in respect of which such deduction and withholding was made. Upon request by the Party so withheld upon, ▇▇▇▇▇ will provide a receipt from the applicable Governmental Authority regarding such withholding.

Neither the execution and delivery of this Agreement or the other Transaction Documents to which it is or will be a party by Buyer, nor the consummation by Buyer of the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby (a) conflicts with any provision of the Governing Documents of Buyer, or (b) violates or results in a breach of any material agreement, contract, lease, license, instrument or other arrangement to which Buyer or any of its Subsidiaries is a party or by which any of their respective properties are bound or (c) assuming receipt of the Consents described in Section 5.4, compliance with the HSR Act and the accuracy of the Seller’s representations and warranties set forth in Article III and Article IV, violates any Law to which Buyer or any of its Subsidiaries is subject, except, in the case of clauses (b) and (c), for such violations or breaches as would not, individually or in the aggregate, have a Material Adverse Effect on Buyer.

Section 5.8Brokers’ Fees. None of Buyer or any of its Affiliates has any contract or other arrangement or understanding (written or oral, express or implied) with any Person which may result in the obligation of either Seller Entity or any of its Affiliates to pay any fees or commissions to any broker or finder as a result of the execution and delivery of this Agreement or the other Transaction Documents to which Buyer is or will be a party or the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby.

Section 5.9Information.

(a)Seller and the Company Entities have provided Buyer with access to the facilities, books, records and personnel of the Company Entities as ▇▇▇▇▇ has requested in order for Buyer to investigate the businesses and properties of the Company Entities in connection with its investment decision to purchase the Project Holding Company Interests and to enter into this Agreement. Buyer (either alone or together with its advisors) has such knowledge and experience in financial and business matters so as to be capable of evaluating the merits and risks of its purchase of the Project Holding Company Interests and is capable of bearing the economic risks of such purchase. Buyer’s acceptance of the Project Holding Company Interests on the Closing Date shall be based upon its own investigation, examination and determination with respect thereto, the express representations and warranties of Seller set forth in Article III and Article IV and any certificate delivered pursuant hereto or in any other Transaction Documents as to all matters and without reliance upon any express or implied representations or warranties of any nature made by or on behalf of or imputed to Seller, except as expressly set forth in this Agreement.

(b)Buyer has relied solely on its own legal, tax and financial advisers for its evaluation of its investment decision to purchase the Project Holding Company Interests and to enter into this Agreement and not on the advice of Seller or any of its Affiliates or any of their legal, tax or financial advisers. ▇▇▇▇▇ acknowledges that any financial projections that may have been provided to it are based on assumptions of future operating results based on assumptions about certain events (many of which are beyond the control of Seller or any of its Affiliates). Buyer understands that no assurances or representations can be given that the actual results of the operations of any Company Entity will conform to the projected results for any period. Buyer specifically acknowledges that no representation or warranty has been made, and that Buyer has not relied on any representation or warranty, as to the accuracy of any projections, estimates or budgets, future revenues, future results from operations, future cash flows, the future condition (whether financial or other) of any Company Entity, or the businesses or assets thereof, or, except as expressly set forth in this Agreement, any other information or documents made available to Buyer, its Affiliates or its or their respective Representatives or equityholders.

(c)Buyer and its Representatives and equityholders acknowledge and agree that neither Seller nor any of its Affiliates, nor any of its Representatives or equityholders, is making any representation or warranty whatsoever, express or implied, beyond those expressly given in Article III and Article IV and the certificate delivered pursuant to Section 7.3(c), including any implied warranty or representation as to condition, merchantability, suitability or fitness for a particular purpose or trade as to any of the assets of any of the Company Entities.

Section 5.10Energy-Related Holdings. As of the date of this Agreement, neither Buyer nor any of its Affiliates have received any written notice of any actual, pending, or threatened proceeding or investigation by or before FERC that would reasonably be expected to prevent or delay (a) any filings or approvals required under the HSR Act or (b) obtaining authorization from FERC pursuant to Section 203 of the FPA. Section 5.10 of the Buyer Disclosure Schedule sets forth a complete and accurate list, as of the date hereof, of: (a) each electric generating facility located or planned to become operational within the next year in the balancing authority areas relevant to FERC 203 analysis and, which list shows the nominal capacity and fuel type of each such facility; and (b) each interstate electric transmission facility, interstate or intrastate natural gas or other fuel transportation, storage or distribution facility or any other upstream inputs to electricity products, such as sites for electric generation capacity development or natural gas or other fuel supply sources, in each case under clause (a) and (b) above, owned, operated, leased or controlled by Buyer or any of its affiliates (as FERC would define affiliate for purposes of market power analyses).

Section 5.11No Foreign Control. Buyer is not a “foreign person” as that term is defined in 31 C.F.R. § 800.224.

Section 5.12Solvency. Buyer is not entering into this Agreement with the intent to hinder, delay or defraud either present or future creditors. Immediately after giving effect to all of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents, including the making of the payments contemplated by Article II, and assuming satisfaction of the conditions to Buyer’s obligation to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents, the accuracy of the representations and warranties of Seller and the Company Entities set forth herein and the performance by Seller of its obligations hereunder in all material respects, following the Closing Buyer (a) will be solvent (in that both the fair value of its assets will exceed the amount required to pay its probable liabilities on its recourse debts as they mature or become due in the Ordinary Course of Business), (b) will have adequate capital and liquidity with which to engage in its business and (c) will be able to pay all of its debts as they mature or become due in the Ordinary Course of Business.

Section 6.2Access to Information; Confidentiality.

(a)During the Interim Period, Buyer may make or cause to be made such review of the Company Entities and their respective assets, financial and legal condition as Buyer deems reasonably necessary or advisable. Seller shall, and shall cause the Company Entities to, permit Buyer and its authorized agents or Representatives, including its independent accountants, to have reasonable access to the properties and electronic books and records of the Company Entities (and each Seller Entity to the extent relating to the Company Entities or the Project) during normal business hours to review information and documentation related to the assets, properties, personnel, books, Contracts and other records of the Company Entities (and each Seller Entity to the extent relating to the Company Entities or the Project) for a reasonable business purpose related to the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement; provided, however, that such investigation shall only be upon reasonable advance written notice (email being sufficient) and shall not unreasonably disrupt personnel and operations of the Company Entities or their Affiliates or otherwise interfere with the prompt and timely discharge by such personnel of their normal duties and shall be at Buyer’s sole cost and expense; and provided, further, however, that none of Buyer, its Affiliates or their respective Representatives shall conduct any subsurface investigation or testing of any environmental media. All requests for access to the offices, properties, books and records of the Company

Entities or Seller Entities shall be made to such Representatives of Seller as Seller shall designate, who shall be solely responsible for coordinating all such requests and all access permitted hereunder. It is further agreed that none of Buyer, its Affiliates or their respective Representatives shall, prior to the Closing Date, contact any of the employees, customers, suppliers, distributors, contractors, lenders, agents or parties (or Representatives of any of the foregoing) that have business relationships with the Company Entities or any Governmental Authority or Representatives thereof, in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby, whether in person or by telephone, mail or other means of communication, without the prior written consent of Seller (other than the required filings specified in Section 3.5).

Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, Seller shall not be required to provide any access or information to Buyer, its Affiliates or any of their respective Representatives, whether during the Interim Period or from and after the Closing, which Seller reasonably believes it or the Company Entities are prohibited from providing to Buyer, its Affiliates or their respective Representatives by reason of applicable Law, which constitutes or allows access to information protected by attorney-client or similar privilege, or which Seller or its Affiliates (or, prior to the Closing, the Company Entities) are required to keep confidential or prevent access to by reason of any Contract with a third party or which would otherwise expose Seller or its Affiliates (or, prior to the Closing, the Company Entities) to a material risk of Liability.

(b)Buyer shall, and shall cause its Affiliates and their respective Representatives to, hold in confidence all Evaluation Material (as defined in the Confidentiality Agreement) obtained from Seller, the Company Entities or their respective Affiliates or Representatives, whether or not relating to the business of the Company Entities, in accordance with the provisions of the Confidentiality Agreement in each case as if Buyer and Seller were directly a party thereto which, notwithstanding anything contained therein, shall remain in full force and effect following the execution of this Agreement and shall survive any termination of this Agreement in accordance with its terms; provided, however, that, subject to Section 6.5, and notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein or in the Confidentiality Agreement, from and after the Closing, none of Buyer, any of its Affiliates or any of its or their respective Representatives shall have any further obligation hereunder or thereunder with respect to Evaluation Material of the Company Entities. Seller shall, and shall cause its Affiliates and its and their respective Representatives to hold in confidence all Evaluation Material (as defined in the Confidentiality Agreement) obtained by them after Closing pursuant to Section 6.6, in accordance with the terms of the Confidentiality Agreement, mutatis mutandis.

Section 6.3Reasonable Best Efforts. During the Interim Period, except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, each Party shall use reasonable best efforts to cause the conditions set forth in Article VII to be satisfied and to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement as promptly as practicable and in any event on or before the Termination Date.

(a)Each Party shall (and shall each cause their respective Affiliates to) use reasonable best efforts to make, give or obtain Consent under the HSR Act, which shall include to: (i) make or cause to be made the filings required of such Party or any of its Affiliates under the HSR Act as promptly as practicable, and in any event within twenty (20) Business Days after the date of this Agreement; (ii) cooperate with the other Party and furnish all information in such Party’s possession that is necessary in connection with such other Party’s filings in respect of the HSR Act; (iii) use reasonable best efforts to cause the expiration or termination of all applicable waiting periods under the HSR Act as soon as possible; (iv) promptly inform the other Party of the occurrence and contents of any oral communication from, and promptly provide to the other Party copies of any written communications from, any Governmental Authority in respect of the HSR Act, and permit the other Party to review in advance, and consider in good faith the comments of the other Party regarding, any proposed communication by such Party to any Governmental Authority in respect of the HSR Act (excluding personally identifiable information and any initial filing under the HSR Act); (v) consult and cooperate with the other Party in connection with any analyses, appearances, presentations, memoranda, briefs, arguments and opinions to be made or submitted by or on behalf of any Party in connection with the HSR Act, and all related meetings and Actions; (vi) respond promptly and appropriately to any requests received by such Party or any of its Affiliates under the HSR Act and any other antitrust, competition or merger control Laws for additional information, documents or other materials; (vii) use reasonable best efforts to resolve any objections as may be asserted by any Governmental Authority with respect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement under any antitrust, competition or merger control Law; (viii) use reasonable best efforts to contest and resist any Action instituted (or threatened to be instituted) by any Governmental Authority challenging the transactions contemplated by this Agreement as being in violation of any antitrust, competition or merger control Law; (ix) request expedited and, as appropriate, confidential treatment of any such filings; and (x) cooperate in good faith with all Governmental Authorities. No Party shall agree to participate in any substantive meeting with any Governmental Authority in respect of any filings, investigation or other inquiry under any antitrust, competition or merger control Law, unless it consults with the other Party in advance and, to the extent permitted by such Governmental Authority, gives the other Party the

opportunity to attend and participate at such meeting. Subject to its obligations under this Section 6.4, Buyer shall determine the strategy to be used for obtaining the expiration or termination of the waiting period under the HSR Act and any other clearances required or advisable under applicable Law, and in doing so shall consult and cooperate with Seller and consider and take into account Seller’s views in good faith; provided, however, that neither Party shall withdraw its HSR Act notification and report form nor enter into any agreement any Governmental Authority (including any so-called timing agreement) to materially delay Closing pursuant to any antitrust, competition or merger control Law without the prior written consent of the other Party, not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed; provided, further, that Buyer may “pull and refile” its filing under the HSR Act one time pursuant to 16 C.F.R. § 801.12. Buyer shall be responsible for the payment of all filing fees in connection with filings under the HSR Act, and the costs of such fees shall be borne by the Parties as provided in Section 10.10(a).

(b)Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Section 6.4, Buyer and Seller may, as each deems advisable and necessary, reasonably designate any competitively sensitive material to be provided to the other Party under this Agreement as “outside counsel only.” Such designated materials and the information contained therein shall be given only to the outside legal counsel of the recipient and shall not be disclosed by such outside counsel to employees, officers or directors of the recipient unless express permission is obtained in advance from the source of the materials; it is understood that materials provided pursuant to this Agreement may be redacted (i) to remove references concerning the valuation of the Company Entities, (ii) as necessary to comply with contractual arrangements or (iii) as necessary to address reasonable privilege concerns or concerns regarding the privacy of personally identifiable information.

(c)Seller and Buyer shall use reasonable best efforts to obtain Consents from FERC pursuant to Section 203 of the FPA in order to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby. Buyer and its Affiliates shall reasonably cooperate and consult with Seller and its Affiliates in such efforts, including the execution of, or consenting to, FPA Section 203-related applications or submissions with FERC, including any inquiries from staff, which applications or submissions shall be made as soon as practicable, but not later than twenty (20) Business Days after the date of this Agreement, or other such period as may be agreed in writing by the parties. Seller shall, and shall cause the applicable Company Entities to, submit the informational filing pursuant to Schedule 2 of the PJM Tariff and request for waiver as soon as practicable, but no later than two (2) Business Days after the date the FPA Section 203 application is filed.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, for the avoidance of doubt, nothing in this Section 6.4(d) shall prohibit Buyer or any of its Affiliates from entering into a definitive agreement to acquire a PJM Asset so long as such definitive agreement is entered into, and any filing with any Governmental Authority in connection with such acquisition is made, after the date that is sixty (60) days after the date of this Agreement.

(e)In respect of the regulatory clearances that are a condition to Closing pursuant to Section 7.1(b) or Section 7.1(c), Buyer shall take, and cause its Affiliates to take, any

and all actions necessary to obtain such regulatory clearances and avoid the entry of, effect the dissolution of, and have vacated, lifted, reversed or overturned, any Governmental Order, Law or Action that would prevent, prohibit, restrict or materially delay, materially impede, materially interfere with, materially hinder or materially impair the consummation by Buyer of the transactions contemplated hereby, in each case, to allow Buyer to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby as expeditiously as possible, and in any event prior to the Termination Date, including, whether by Governmental Order, agreement, or otherwise: (i) proposing, offering, negotiating, committing to and effecting, by consent decree, a hold separate order or otherwise, the sale, divestiture, license or other disposition of any and all of the capital stock, assets, properties, rights, products, leases, businesses, services or other operations or interests therein of Buyer or any of its Affiliates; (ii) taking or committing to take actions, or accepting any restrictions or impairments, that would limit Buyer’s or its Affiliates’ freedom of action with respect to, or their ability to own, retain, control, operate or manage, any capital stock, assets, properties, rights, products, leases, businesses, services or other operations or interests therein of Buyer or any of its Affiliates as of the Closing or any interest or interests therein, including providing all such assurances as may be necessary, requested or imposed by any Governmental Authority; (iii) creating, terminating or amending any relationships, contractual rights, obligations, licenses, ventures or other arrangements of Buyer or any of its Affiliates; and (iv) contesting, defending, challenging and appealing any threatened or pending proceeding, or preliminary or permanent injunction, or other Law or Governmental Order that would materially adversely affect, materially delay or prevent the ability of any Party to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby, and taking any and all other actions to prevent the entry, enactment or promulgation thereof (each a “Remedy Action”); provided, however, that during the Interim Period, Seller and the Subsidiary Seller shall take any Remedy Action in respect of the Company Entities if reasonably requested to do so in writing by ▇▇▇▇▇ and shall not take any Remedy Action in respect of the Company Entities without ▇▇▇▇▇’s written consent; provided, further, that any Remedy Action (including any required of Seller or the Subsidiary Seller or the Company Entities pursuant to the immediate preceding proviso) shall be conditioned on the Closing. For the avoidance of doubt, Buyer shall not be required to take any Remedy Action that is not conditioned on the Closing.

(f)Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Section 6.4, neither Buyer nor any of its Affiliates shall be obligated to take any Remedy Action in respect of the Specified Asset.

Section 6.5Public Announcements. No Party shall issue, or allow a third party or Affiliate to issue, any public announcement, press release or public statement, or conduct press tours, regarding this Agreement, any of the other Parties or any of the Parties’ Affiliates, without, in the case of the Seller Entities, ▇▇▇▇▇’s prior written consent, and in the case of Buyer, Seller’s prior written consent, in each case not to be unreasonably withheld; provided, however, that (a) each Party may make any disclosure required by Law or by the rules of a national security exchange after giving, in the case of the Seller Entities, Buyer, and in the case of Buyer, Seller, at least 72 hours’ prior notice and the opportunity to review and comment on such disclosure; provided that, in the event that a disclosure is required by applicable Law or by the rules of a national security exchange in less than 72 hours, such notice shall be provided at the disclosing Party’s earliest opportunity, and the consenting Party shall use best commercial efforts to review and comment upon such disclosure within the requested time period; (b) each Party shall, and shall cause its Subsidiaries and Affiliates (as applicable) to consult with the other Parties on the content of all such announcements, and each Party shall use commercially reasonable efforts to agree upon the text of any such announcement with the other Parties prior to its release; and (c) nothing in this Section 6.5 or otherwise shall prohibit (i) the Seller Parties from making disclosures to the BlackRock Member or the BlackRock Member or any BlackRock Fund from making customary disclosures to limited partners and other investors in any of the BlackRock Funds (ii) Buyer or its Affiliates from making customary disclosures to its

shareholders, including through customary investor relations disclosures; and (d) Buyer may issue a customary press release following the execution hereof so long as Seller is provided at least 12 hours’ prior notice and the opportunity to review and comment on such release and shall consider in good faith any reasonable comments provided by Seller prior to such release.

Section 6.6Post-Closing Access; Preservation of Records.

(a)From and for seven (7) years after the Closing, Buyer shall make, or cause to be made, available to Seller all books, records, Tax Returns and documents of the Company Entities (and the assistance of employees responsible for such books, records and documents) during regular business hours and upon five (5) Business Days’ written notice (email being sufficient) as may be reasonably necessary for (i) investigating, settling, preparing for the defense or prosecution of, defending or prosecuting any Action, (ii) preparing reports to equityholders and Governmental Authorities, (iii) preparing and delivering any accounting or other statement provided for under this Agreement or otherwise, preparing Tax Returns, pursuing Tax refunds or responding to or disputing any Tax audit, (iv) the determination of any matter relating to the rights and obligations of Seller or any of its Affiliates under any Transaction Documents, or (v) such other purposes as reasonably requested by Seller; provided, however, that access to such books, records, documents and employees shall not interfere with the normal operations of Buyer, its Affiliates, or the Company Entities and the reasonable out-of-pocket expenses of Buyer, its Affiliates and the Company Entities incurred in connection therewith shall be paid by Seller. Buyer shall cause each Company Entity to maintain and preserve all such Tax Returns, books, records and other documents for five (5) years after the Closing Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Buyer shall not be required to disclose or provide access to any information to Seller to the extent that Buyer reasonably determines such disclosure or access would jeopardize any attorney-client or other privilege.

(b)From and after the Closing, Seller shall make or cause to be made available to Buyer all employees, books, records and documents of Seller and its Affiliates relating to the business of the Company Entities during regular business hours for the same purposes, to the extent applicable, as set forth in Section 6.6(a); provided, however, that access to such books, records, documents and employees shall not interfere with the normal operations of Seller or its Affiliates and the reasonable out-of-pocket expenses of Seller and its Affiliates incurred in connection therewith shall be paid by ▇▇▇▇▇.

Section 6.7Tax Matters.

(a)Tax Treatment. Buyer and Seller intend that for all applicable U.S. federal income (and state and local) Tax purposes, the purchase of all of the Project Holding Company Interests by Buyer hereunder shall be treated as an acquisition of the assets of the Project Holding Company (the “Agreed Tax Treatment”). Each Party shall file all Tax Returns consistently with the Agreed Tax Treatment and shall not take any position inconsistent therewith, except as otherwise required by a “determination” (as defined in Section 1313(a) of the Code and any similar provision of state or local Tax Law).

(b)Tax Returns. For the avoidance of doubt, any Tax deductions attributable to any payments or expenses borne directly or indirectly by either Seller Entity or by the Company Entities in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby shall be attributed, to the extent deductible on a “more likely than not” or higher basis in a Pre-Closing Tax Period, to such Seller Entity and shall be reflected on such Tax Returns filed with respect to such Seller Entity. Seller shall prepare or cause to be prepared and timely file or cause to be timely filed any (x) Tax Returns of the Company Entities that are required to be filed on or before the Closing Date and (y) any Pass-Through Income Tax Returns of the Company Entities that are solely for taxable periods ending on or prior to the Closing Date (“Seller Returns”). Such Seller Returns

shall be prepared consistent with the past practices of the relevant Company Entity (except as otherwise required by applicable Law) and any Taxes required to be paid pursuant to any such Seller Return shall be paid, or caused to be paid, by the Seller Entities. Seller shall provide Buyer with a draft of any Seller Return at least fifteen (15) days prior to the due date thereof (including permitted extensions) for Buyer’s review and comment and shall consider in good faith any reasonable comments received from Buyer. Buyer shall cause each Company Entity to prepare and file (or cause to be prepared and filed) all Pass-Through Income Tax Returns of the Company Entities first due after the Closing Date for any Straddle Period (each, a “Straddle Period Return”), in each case consistent with the past practices of such Company Entity (except as otherwise required by applicable Law). Buyer shall provide Seller with a draft of any Straddle Period Return at least fifteen (15) days prior to the due date thereof (including permitted extensions) for Seller’s review and comment, and shall incorporate Seller’s reasonable comments thereto.

(c)Post-Closing Actions. From and after the Closing Date, without Seller’s written consent, none of Buyer, any of its Affiliates (including any Company Entity), or any Representatives thereof, shall (i) file, re-file, amend, or supplement any Pass-Through Income Tax Return for any Pre-Closing Tax Period (or portion thereof), (ii) change any method or period of accounting for any Pre-Closing Tax Period, (iii) make, change, approve or consent to any Tax election with respect to any Company Entity that is retroactively effective for any Pre-Closing Tax Period (or portion thereof), (iv) with respect to any Tax Proceeding controlled by Seller under Section 6.7(d), extend or waive the limitation period applicable to any Tax claim assessment relating to any Pre-Closing Tax Period, or (v) voluntarily approach any taxing authority regarding any Taxes or Tax Returns of any Company Entity that were originally due on or before the Closing Date (taking into account existing extensions), in each case to the extent doing so would impact any Pass-Through Income Tax Return for any Pre-Closing Tax Period (or portion thereof).

(d)Tax Proceedings. Seller and Buyer shall notify the other in writing within ten (10) days of the receipt by such Party (or any of its Affiliates), as applicable, of notice of any inquiries, claims, assessments, audits or similar events with respect to Taxes of or with respect to any Company Entity for which some or all of such Taxes Seller (or any of its Affiliates) would reasonably be expected to be liable directly on a pass-through basis (such as Income Taxes) as a matter of Law (a “Tax Proceeding”). Seller shall control and defend any Tax Proceeding for any Pre-Closing Tax Period (not including any portion of any Straddle Periods); provided, however, that Seller shall (i) permit Buyer to participate (at its own expense) in such Tax Proceeding, (ii) keep Buyer reasonably informed of the major developments and status of such Tax Proceeding, and (iii) not settle or compromise any such Tax Proceeding without Buyer’s written consent, which shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. Buyer shall control and defend any Tax Proceeding for any Straddle Period; provided, however, that Buyer shall (i) permit Seller to participate (at its own expense) in such Tax Proceeding, (ii) keep Seller reasonably informed of developments and the status of such Tax Proceeding, and (iii) not settle or compromise such Tax Proceeding without the prior written consent of Seller, which shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. Any Taxes resulting from a Tax Proceeding in respect of a Straddle Period shall be allocated among the Seller and Buyer on a “closing of the books” basis with respect to Income Taxes and a pro rata basis in respect of ownership during the Straddle Period with respect to non-Income Taxes.

(e)Cooperation. Buyer and Seller shall, and shall cause their respective Affiliates to, provide to the other Party such reasonable cooperation and information, as and to the extent reasonably requested and reasonably necessary, in connection with (i) preparing, reviewing or filing any Tax Return, amended Tax Return or claim for refund of or with respect to the Company Entities, (ii) determining Liabilities for Taxes or a right to refund of Taxes of or

with respect to the Company Entities or (iii) conducting any audit or other action with respect to Taxes of or with respect to the Company Entities.

Section 6.8Insurance. From and after the Closing Date (i) the Company Entities shall cease to be insured by, have access or availability to, be entitled to make claims on, be entitled to claim benefits or seek coverage under, any of Seller’s or its Affiliates insurance policies or any of their self-insured programs described on Section 6.8 of the Seller Disclosure Schedules and (ii) with regards to the insurance policies or self-insured programs described on Section 6.8 of the Seller Disclosure Schedules, Buyer shall be solely responsible for obtaining or providing insurance coverage for the Company Entities for any event or occurrence after the Closing sufficient to comply with any and all of the contractual and statutory obligations of the Company Entities.

Section 6.9Indemnification; Directors and Officers Insurance.

(a)From and after the Closing Date, Buyer shall, and shall cause each of the Company Entities to, to the fullest extent permitted by Law, indemnify, defend and hold harmless each individual who on or prior to the Closing Date was a director, manager, managing member, officer or controlling equity holder of any Company Entity (each, a “Covered Party”) against all Actions, claims, actions, Liabilities, losses, damages, judgments, fines, Taxes, penalties, fees, costs or expenses (including reasonable attorney fees, costs and expenses) incurred or suffered by such Covered Party arising out of or relating to any act or omission of such Covered Party in their capacity as a director, manager, officer, employee, trustee, fiduciary or controlling equity holder of any Company Entity or any acts or omissions taken at the request of any Company Entity, in each case, at any time prior to or on the Closing Date (including the negotiation, entry into, performance and consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents). Neither Buyer nor any Company Entity shall settle, compromise or consent to the entry of any judgment in any pending or threatened Action with respect to which a Covered Party may be entitled to indemnification hereunder without the prior written consent of such Covered Party, unless such Covered Party is given an express and unconditional full release of any and all Liability by all relevant parties. The foregoing shall be in addition to, and shall not modify or limit, any other rights any Covered Party may have under any Governing Document, insurance policy, Contract or Law.

(b)For a period of not less than six (6) years from and after the Closing Date, Buyer shall cause the Governing Documents of each Company Entity to contain provisions no less favorable with respect to exculpation, indemnification, contribution, advancement of expenses or reimbursement of the Covered Parties than are set forth in their respective Governing Documents as of the date hereof. Buyer agrees that all rights of the Covered Parties to exculpation, indemnification, contribution, advancement of expenses or reimbursement with respect to acts or omissions occurring at or prior to the Closing pursuant to any Governing Document of any Company Entity as in effect on the date hereof, any Contract with a Covered Party as in effect on the date hereof or any applicable Law shall survive the Closing and shall continue in full force and effect in accordance with their terms.

(c)On or prior to the Closing Date, Seller and the Company Entities shall obtain, at Buyer’s sole cost and expense in an amount not to exceed $125,000, a non-cancelable run-off insurance policy for directors’ and officers’ liability, for a period of six (6) years after the Closing Date to provide insurance coverage for events, acts or omissions occurring on or prior to the Closing Date, including in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby, for all persons who were directors, managers or officers of Seller, the BlackRock Member, Annex 0 or any Company Entity, as applicable, on or prior to the Closing Date (the “D&O Insurance”). Buyer shall cause any Company Entity, as applicable, to maintain the D&O Insurance in full force and effect, and continue to honor the obligations thereunder.

(d)Buyer hereby acknowledges that certain Covered Parties may have rights to indemnification, contribution, advancement of expenses, reimbursement or insurance provided by Persons other than the Company Entities (collectively, the “Other Indemnitors”). Buyer hereby agrees (i) that Buyer and the Company Entities are the indemnitors of first resort (i.e., their obligations to the Covered Party are primary and any obligation of the Other Indemnitors are secondary), (ii) Buyer and the Company Entities shall be required to indemnify and advance expenses to any Covered Party to the extent required by the terms of this Agreement, the applicable Governing Documents of the Company Entities, any other applicable indemnification agreements or arrangements or applicable Law, without regard to any rights the Covered Party may have against the Other Indemnitors or any insurance provided thereby and (iii) Buyer, on its own behalf and on behalf of the other Buyer Related Parties and their respective successors and assigns, hereby unconditionally and irrevocably waives, releases and forever discharges each of the Other Indemnitors from any and all claims against the Other Indemnitors for contribution, subrogation or any other recovery of any kind in respect thereof. Buyer, on its own behalf and on behalf of the other Buyer Related Parties, further agrees that no advancement or payment by an Other Indemnitor on behalf of an Covered Party with respect to any claim for which an Covered Party has sought indemnification from any Company Entity shall affect the foregoing and the applicable Other Indemnitor shall have a right of contribution or be subrogated to the extent of such advancement or payment to all of the rights of recovery of the Covered Party against Buyer or any Company Entity.

(e)In the event Buyer or any Company Entity (i) consolidates with or merges into any other Person and shall not be the continuing entity after such consolidation or merger or (ii) transfers all or substantially all of its properties and assets to any Person, then, and in each such case, proper provision shall be made so that such continuing entity or transferee of such assets, as the case may be, shall assume the obligations set forth in this Section 6.9.

Section 6.10R&W Policy. In the event that any Buyer Related Party obtains, or directs any other Person to obtain, any representations and warranties insurance policy or policies in respect of any representations and warranties contained in this Agreement or in any other Transaction Document at any time before or after the Closing (each such policy, a “R&W Policy”), (a) all premiums, fees and expenses (including all underwriting fees, Taxes, surcharges and brokerage commissions) incurred by such parties in obtaining such R&W Policy shall be borne solely by ▇▇▇▇▇, (b) Buyer shall provide Seller a reasonable opportunity to review such R&W Policy in advance of binding coverage thereunder and shall incorporate in such R&W Policy any reasonable comments provided by Seller, (c) such R&W Policy shall include a provision whereby the insurers thereof expressly waive any right or claim with respect to subrogation, contribution, assignment of rights or claims or any other form of recovery in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby against all Seller Related Parties (except the right to assert a claim for Fraud against any Party to the extent the payment of any loss under such R&W Policy arose out of Fraud committed by such Party) (the “Subrogation Waiver”), (d) the Seller Related Parties shall be intended third party beneficiaries of the Subrogation Waiver, and (e) no Buyer Related Party shall amend, waive, modify or otherwise revise, or permit the amendment, waiver, modification or other revision of, the R&W Policy in any manner inconsistent with the foregoing or otherwise materially adverse to any Seller Related Party.

Section 6.11Use of Names. Seller is not conveying to Buyer or any of its Affiliates (including, following the Closing, the Company Entities), and, neither Buyer nor any of its Affiliates (including, following the Closing, the Company Entities) will have any ownership or other rights whatsoever in, and Seller is not licensing or otherwise granting to Buyer, or, following the Closing, the Company Entities, or any of their respective Affiliates, any rights whatsoever to, the names “Caithness” or “Caithness Energy”, or any derivations thereof (such names and derivations, the “Seller Names”). Buyer and its Affiliates will (i) as soon as

practicable after the Closing, and in any event within six (6) months of Closing, remove, and will cause the Company Entities to remove, all such names from the Project and the Company Entities, including all filings, communications, signage and other materials, and (ii) as soon as practicable after the Closing, and in any event within six (6) months of Closing, cause the Governing Documents of each Company Entity to be amended to remove any references to such names. For six (6) months following the Closing, Seller, on behalf of itself and its Affiliates, hereby grants to the Company Entities a non-exclusive right to use the Seller Names in a substantially similar manner as such Seller Names are used by the Company Entities or in connection with the Project as of the Closing. Nothing in this Section 6.11 shall restrict Buyer, its Affiliates or any Company Entities from any use of a Seller Name as required by Law, internally, or in a manner that does not constitute trademark infringement.

Section 6.12Casualty.

(a)If any of the Company Entities’ or the Project’s assets are damaged or destroyed by casualty loss or similar event or circumstance or taken in condemnation or under right of eminent domain after the date of this Agreement and prior to the Closing (each such event or circumstance, a “Casualty Loss”), Seller shall notify Buyer in writing (email being sufficient). If a Casualty Loss occurs and (i) in the case of a casualty loss, the cost of restoring the asset damaged or destroyed to a condition reasonably comparable to the condition the asset had immediately prior to such Casualty Loss or (ii) in the case of a condemnation, the condemnation value therefor (in each case net of and after giving effect to any insurance proceeds, tax benefits, condemnation or other awards, liquidated damages or third party proceeds received or realized by, or reasonably agreed by Seller and Buyer in good faith will be available to, the applicable Company Entity with respect to such event or circumstance) (such amount with respect to any assets as determined by the Accounting Firm, the “Restoration Cost”) does not exceed $233,011,600, subject to Section 6.12(b), the amount of the Purchase Price shall be reduced by the Restoration Cost (as estimated by the Accounting Firm) as contemplated in the definitions of “Estimated Purchase Price” and “Purchase Price”, and such Casualty Loss shall not affect the Closing. If the Restoration Cost is in excess of $233,011,600 then either Seller or Buyer may, by notice to the other Party, terminate the Agreement pursuant to Section 9.1(g) within ten (10) Business Days after the Accounting Firm provides its determination of the Restoration Cost; provided, however, that if neither Buyer nor Seller terminates the Agreement within such ten (10) Business Day period, then the Purchase Price shall be reduced by the amount of the Restoration Cost and such Casualty Loss shall otherwise not affect the Closing. In the event of a Casualty Loss prior to the Closing, Seller shall, and shall cause its respective Affiliates to, use commercially reasonable efforts to collect amounts due (if any) under available insurance arrangements in respect of any such Casualty Loss (all such amounts, “Casualty Cash”) and shall cause any such Casualty Cash to be contributed or assigned to the Company Entity that suffered such Casualty Loss (provided that in the event the Purchase Price is reduced due to such Casualty Loss, and such Purchase Price reduction does not take into account such insurance proceeds, then any such insurance proceeds that are received by the Company Entities following the Closing shall be promptly remitted to Seller).

(b)Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 6.12(a), if the amount equal to the sum of all Restoration Costs with respect to all Casualty Losses (the “Aggregate Restoration Cost”) is, in the aggregate, equal to or less than one percent (1%) of the Enterprise Value, then the corresponding Aggregate Restoration Cost shall not result in any reduction in the Purchase Price.

(c)To assist Buyer in its evaluation of any and all Casualty Losses (including Restoration Costs), Seller shall provide Buyer such reasonable access to the properties and assets of Seller, and the Company Entities, including the Project, and such information as Buyer may reasonably request in connection therewith, subject to the conditions of Section 6.2(a).

(d)Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, as between the Parties, this Section 6.12 shall be the sole and exclusive remedy of the Parties with respect to any Casualty Loss that damages, impairs, destroys or takes the Project during the Interim Period and there shall be no other liability for Seller and its Affiliates hereunder other than this Section 6.12 due to such Casualty Loss.

Section 6.13Financial Statement Cooperation.

(a)During the period beginning on the date hereof and ending on the earlier of (i) the date that is ninety (90) days after the Closing Date and (ii) the date this Agreement is terminated in accordance with Article IX (the “Cooperation Period”), Seller shall use commercially reasonable efforts to prepare and deliver (to the extent not already provided), at the Buyer’s sole cost and expense:

(i)(a) audited financial statements of the Company Entities, including combined balance sheets, statements of operations, statements of cash flows, and statements of members equity, as of and for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024; provided that such financial statements shall only include information as of and for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024, on or before the delivery of the financial statements for the fiscal quarter ending June 30, 2025 pursuant to clause (ii) below and (b) audited financial statements of the Company Entities, including combined balance sheets, statements of operations, statements of cash flows, and statements of members equity, as of and for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025, provided that such financial statements shall only include information as of and for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025, within ninety (90) days after the end of such fiscal year, to the extent the Closing occurs after December 31, 2025;

(ii)with respect to the fiscal quarter ending June 30, 2025 and each fiscal quarter ending after the date of this Agreement and prior to the Closing Date (other than the end of a fiscal quarter that is also a year-end), unaudited financial statements of the Company Entities, including combined balance sheets, statements of operations, statements of cash flows, and statements of members equity, for (A) the three month period of such fiscal quarter (and the corresponding period of the preceding fiscal year) and (B) the period beginning on January 1 of the applicable year and ending at the end of such fiscal quarter (and the corresponding period of the preceding fiscal year), which in each case shall (1) include notes to the financial statements and (2) be reviewed by Seller’s auditors in accordance with customary review procedures for interim financial statements, within fifty (50) days after the end of such fiscal period; provided that for the period ending June 30, 2025, such financial statements shall be required within seventy-five (75) days after the end of such fiscal period;

(iii)with respect to the fiscal quarter in which the Closing Date occurs, unaudited financial statements of the Company Entities, including combined balance sheets, statements of operations, statements of cash flows, and statements of members equity, for (A) the period beginning on the first day of such fiscal quarter and ending on (and including) the Closing Date and (B) the period beginning on January 1 of the applicable year and ending on (and including) the Closing Date, within forty (40) days after the Closing Date;

(iv)with respect to the most recently ended fiscal quarter and fiscal year prior to the Closing Date for which financial statements are required to be delivered pursuant to clauses (i) and (ii) above, respectively, all financial data and other information reasonably requested by Buyer for, and to use commercially reasonable efforts to cooperate with, the preparation by Buyer of versions of such financial statements that are compliant with Regulation S-X applied on a consistent basis throughout the periods covered thereby, solely to the extent required pursuant to Item 9.01 of Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) Form 8-K;

(v)as soon as reasonably practicable, all financial data, audit reports and other related information reasonably requested by ▇▇▇▇▇ (to the extent not previously provided) and necessary to permit Buyer to prepare (A) offering documents used in connection with any private placements of debt securities under Rule 144A promulgated under the Securities Act and (B) pro forma financial statements (it being understood that such statements, data, reports and other information shall not be required for any fiscal year prior to the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023 or any accounting period subsequent to the Closing Date); and

(vi)all financial data and other information reasonably requested by ▇▇▇▇▇ in connection with the preparation by Buyer of any statements, forms, schedules, reports or other documents filed or furnished with the SEC or any other Governmental Authorities as are required of Buyer (or its potential successors) under applicable Laws;

provided, however, that in each case of the foregoing clauses, such financial statements shall be prepared in accordance with GAAP. During the Cooperation Period, Seller shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to provide Buyer and its Representatives at Buyer’s sole cost and expense reasonable access upon reasonable prior notice during normal business hours to such historic financial statements, records, financial data and personnel of Seller’s and its Subsidiaries’ accounting firms as the Buyer may reasonably request to enable Buyer and its Representatives to prepare any such financial statements (it being understood that such statements, records and data shall not be required for any fiscal year prior to the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023 or any accounting period subsequent to the Closing Date).

(b)During the Cooperation Period, Seller shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause the personnel of Seller and its Subsidiaries, and to request its independent auditors and other applicable consultants or service providers, to reasonably cooperate with the Buyer and its Representatives in the interpretation, preparation, and disclosure of any financial statements, including pro forma financial statements, described in Section 6.13(a), in each case, at Buyer’s sole cost and expense. During the Cooperation Period (the “Comfort Period”), Seller shall use commercially reasonable efforts to request its independent auditors to, at the Buyer’s sole cost and expense, (i) provide, execute and deliver customary “comfort letters,” that include negative assurance “comfort” and “comfort” with respect to historical data of the Company Entities, (ii) provide reports, letters and consents related to their work for the Company Entities, (iii) issue any customary representation letters in connection therewith to any underwriter or purchaser in a securities offering by Buyer or its Affiliates including financial statements of the Company Entities or pro forma financial statements including financial information of the Company Entities, (iv) consent to the inclusion or incorporation by reference of its audit opinion or report with respect to any audited financial statements of the Company Entities, as applicable, (v) consent to be named an expert in any offering memorandum, private placement memorandum, prospectus, or filing used or filed by Buyer or its Affiliates in connection with any private placements of debt securities under Rule 144A or a registered offering of debt securities with respect to the audited or unaudited financial statements of the Company Entities and (vi) provide access to Buyer and its Representatives to the work papers of the independent auditors of the Company Entities. All of the information provided by Seller and its Affiliates pursuant to this Section 6.13 is given without any representation or warranty, express or implied, and neither Seller nor any of its Affiliates or its or their respective accountants shall have any liability or responsibility with respect thereto. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing sentence, Buyer shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless Seller, the BlackRock Member and their respective Affiliates from and against any and all damages, liabilities or losses suffered or incurred arising from the financial statements prepared and delivered or the cooperation provided by the Seller pursuant to this Section 6.13 (other than as set forth in this Section 6.13(b) and to the extent such liabilities arise from actual fraud or willful misconduct of Seller or their Affiliates

or any of their respective Representatives) and any information utilized in connection therewith. Buyer shall promptly reimburse Seller for all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by Seller and its Affiliates in connection with the cooperation and assistance provided pursuant to this Section 6.13; provided, however, that such reimbursement under Section 6.13(b) shall not apply to, and Buyer shall not be responsible for, costs and expenses incurred by Seller and its Affiliates in connection with the preparation of the financial statements described in Section 6.13(a)(i) and Section 6.13(a)(ii).

(c)Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, Seller and the Company Entities will be deemed to be in compliance with this Section 6.13 for all purposes hereunder, and Buyer shall not allege that Seller (or any other Person) is or has not been in compliance with this Section 6.13 for any purpose hereunder, unless both (i) Buyer provides prompt written notice to Seller of the alleged failure to comply, specifying in reasonable detail such alleged failure, which failure to comply has not been cured within ten (10) Business Days of such notice and (ii) Seller’s willful breach of this Section 6.13 was the primary and direct cause of (x) Buyer or its Affiliates being unable to satisfy applicable disclosure requirements under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder or (y) the failure of the Debt Financing to be obtained on or before the Termination Date. For the avoidance of doubt, and notwithstanding anything to the contrary, the obligations of Buyer to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement are not conditional on or subject to the delivery of any financial statements or other documents or information described in this Section 6.13 (subject to the terms of Section 7.3).

Section 6.14Financing Cooperation.

(a)From and after the date hereof until the earlier of the Closing Date and the termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 9.1, Seller shall and shall cause the Company Entities to use each of their respective commercially reasonable efforts to provide to Buyer, at the sole expense of Buyer, customary information and take other customary actions as are reasonably requested by Buyer in connection with the Debt Financing, which shall include, using commercially reasonable efforts to:

(i)at least three (3) Business Days prior to Closing (to the extent requested from the Company Entities at least seven (7) Business Days prior to the anticipated Closing), providing all documentation and other information about the Company Entities as is reasonably requested by Buyer which the sources in respect of the Debt Financing reasonably determine is required with respect to applicable “know your customer” and anti-money laundering rules and regulations, including the USA PATRIOT Act and that is required as a condition precedent to the initial funding of the Debt Financing;

(ii)facilitate the execution of the Payoff Letters;

(iii)facilitate the execution and delivery at the Closing of definitive documents reasonably related to the Debt Financing, including any guarantees, pledge and security documents, other definitive financing documents (in each case including the schedules thereto), or in connection with the authorization of the Debt Financing and the definitive documentation related thereto, and the execution and delivery of such definitive documentation in anticipation of the Closing (provided that all such authorization, execution and delivery shall be deemed to become effective only if and when the Closing occurs; and provided, further that the Company Entities shall not be required to deliver or cause the delivery of any legal opinions);

(iv)provide reasonable assistance to Buyer in its preparation of the Marketing Materials;

(b)by either Seller or Buyer by giving written notice to the other Party if the Closing shall not have occurred by July 17, 2026 (the “Termination Date”), unless extended by written agreement of Seller and Buyer; provided, however, that if the only conditions that have not been satisfied or waived as of the Termination Date (other than conditions that by their nature are to be satisfied at the Closing and remain capable of being satisfied) are any of the conditions in Section 7.1(a) (with respect to antitrust Law), Section 7.1(b), or Section 7.1(c), the Termination Date shall be automatically extended to January 17, 2027; and provided, further, however, that the right to terminate this Agreement under this Section 9.1(b) shall not be available to any Party whose breach of its obligations under this Agreement has been a primary cause of, or resulted in, the failure of the transactions contemplated hereby to be consummated by such time;

(c)by either Seller or Buyer by giving written notice to the other Party if such other Party has breached its representations, warranties, covenants, agreements or other obligations hereunder in a manner that renders impossible the satisfaction of any condition of such Party giving notice set forth in Article VII not to be satisfied and such breach is incapable of being cured or has not been cured by the Party receiving such written notice within forty-five (45) days after delivery of such notice; provided, however, that the right to terminate this Agreement under this Section 9.1(c) shall not be available to any Party who is then in material breach of any of its representations, warranties, covenants, agreements or other obligations hereunder;

(d)by either Seller or Buyer by giving written notice to the other Party if any Governmental Authority shall have issued an order, decree or ruling or taken any other action permanently restraining, enjoining or otherwise prohibiting the consummation of any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, and such order, decree, ruling or other action shall not be subject to appeal or shall have become final and unappealable; provided, however, that the right to terminate this Agreement under this Section 9.1(d) shall not be available to any Party whose breach of its obligations under this Agreement has been a cause of, or resulted in, the failure of the transactions contemplated hereby to be consummated by such time;

(e)by Seller if (i) all of the conditions set forth in Section 7.1 and Section 7.3 have been satisfied (and continue to be satisfied) or irrevocably waived (other than any such

conditions which by their terms are not capable of being satisfied until the Closing Date, but will be satisfied at Closing) and (ii) Buyer does not consummate the transactions contemplated hereby within three (3) Business Days of the day the Closing is required to occur pursuant to Section 2.3;

(f)by Buyer if (i) all of the conditions set forth in Section 7.1 and Section 7.2 have been satisfied (and continue to be satisfied) or irrevocably waived (other than any such conditions which by their terms are not capable of being satisfied until the Closing Date, but will be satisfied at Closing) and (ii) the Seller Entities do not consummate the transactions contemplated hereby within five (5) Business Days of the day the Closing is required to occur pursuant to Section 2.3; or

Section 9.2Effect of Termination. In the event of termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 9.1, this Agreement shall immediately terminate and have no further force and effect and there shall be no Liability on the part of any Party to any other Party under this Agreement, except (a) as set forth in Section 9.3, (b) that the covenants and agreements set forth in Section 6.2(b), Section 6.5, this Article IX and Article X and all definitions herein necessary to interpret any of the foregoing provisions shall remain in full force and effect and survive such termination indefinitely and (c) that nothing in this Section 9.2 or in Section 9.3 shall release any Party from any Liability for any breach by such Party of this Agreement before the effective date of such termination, or otherwise affect any of the rights or remedies (whether under this Agreement, or at Law, in equity or otherwise) available to any Party with respect to the breach of this Agreement by any Party before the effective date of such termination; provided, however, that, if this Agreement is validly terminated pursuant to Section 9.1, no Party shall have any remedy or right to recover for any liabilities resulting from any breach of any representation or warranty contained herein unless such breach was intentional and willful on the part of the breaching party. For the avoidance of doubt, without limitation of the foregoing, neither Party waives any claims for any breach of this agreement that was intentional and willful and each Party acknowledges that a failure by Buyer or Seller to consummate the transactions in breach or violation of this Agreement shall be deemed to be intentional and willful, including in the case of Buyer whether or not Buyer had sufficient funds available.

Section 9.3Termination Fee and Remedies.

(a)If (i) this Agreement is terminated by Seller or Buyer pursuant to Section 9.1(b) or Section 9.1(d), (ii) all of the conditions to Closing set forth in Section 7.3 have been satisfied (other than such conditions to Closing that by their nature are to be satisfied at the Closing or that have been waived in writing by the applicable Party) and one or more of the conditions to Closing set forth in Section 7.1 was not satisfied, and (iii) Buyer has failed to take any Remedy Action requested by any Governmental Authority, or that if offered to any Governmental Authority would have resulted in the satisfaction of the unsatisfied condition(s) set forth in Section 7.1, in each case with respect to the Specified Asset, then Buyer shall pay to an Affiliate of Seller as designated in writing by Seller, by wire transfer of immediately available funds within five (5) Business Days following the date of termination, as liquidated damages, an amount equal to $100,000,000 (the “Termination Fee”). Until such time as this Agreement is validly terminated pursuant to this Article IX, nothing contained in this Article IX shall prevent, limit, impede or impair the ability of a Party to seek specific performance at any time prior to the termination of this Agreement pursuant to Article IX.

(b)The provision for payment of the Termination Fee has been included because the actual losses to be incurred by Seller and Subsidiary Seller in the circumstances

where the Termination Fee is payable can reasonably be expected to approximate the Termination Fee provided for herein and because in the circumstances where the Termination Fee is payable Seller and Subsidiary Seller will suffer material harm but the actual amount of such losses would be difficult if not impossible to measure accurately. The Parties further expressly acknowledge and agree that the Termination Fee is a material inducement to the willingness of Seller and Subsidiary Seller to enter into this Agreement and is an integral part of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and is intended not as a penalty, but as liquidated compensation to the Seller and Seller Subsidiary in the circumstances where the Termination Fee is payable. In addition, the Parties acknowledge and agree that, in the event Buyer shall fail to pay the Termination Fee when due, and Seller or Subsidiary Seller commences a proceeding which results in a judgment or similar award against Buyer for such Termination Fee, then Buyer shall also pay, to Seller and Subsidiary Seller, each of their reasonable, documented out-of-pocket costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses of enforcement) in connection with such proceeding.

(c)Other than in a case of Fraud, upon termination of this Agreement in the manner contemplated in Section 9.3(a), the Termination Fee shall be the sole and exclusive remedy of Seller, Subsidiary Seller and their Affiliates and their respective Representatives against any Buyer Related Party for any losses or Liabilities suffered as a result of the failure of the Closing to be consummated or for any other matter under, relating to or arising out of this Agreement or any other Transaction Document or any of the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, whether based on Contract, tort, strict liability, other Laws or otherwise, or any Claim based on, in respect of, or by reason of any of the foregoing, and upon payment of the Termination Fee, none of Seller, Subsidiary Seller, any of their Affiliates or any of their respective Representatives shall pursue or be entitled to pursue or make any Claim against any Buyer Related Party, and no Buyer Related Party shall have any Liability arising out of the circumstances giving rise to any termination of this Agreement or for any other matter under, relating to or arising out of or in connection with this Agreement or any other Transaction Document or any of the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby.

Section 10.4Amendments and Waivers. This Agreement may not be amended, supplemented or otherwise modified except in a written instrument executed by each of the Parties. No waiver by any of the Parties of any default, misrepresentation, or breach of warranty or covenant hereunder, whether intentional or not, shall be deemed to extend to any prior or subsequent default, misrepresentation, or breach of warranty or covenant hereunder or affect in any way any rights arising by virtue of any prior or subsequent such occurrence. Failure to exercise, or delay in exercising, any right or remedy shall not operate as a waiver or be treated as an election not to exercise such right or remedy, any single or partial exercise or waiver of any right or remedy shall not preclude its further exercise or the exercise of any other right or remedy. No waiver by any of the Parties of any of the provisions hereof shall be effective unless explicitly set forth in writing and executed by the Party sought to be charged with such waiver.

Section 10.5Exhibits and Schedules. All Exhibits and Schedules and the Seller Disclosure Schedule and Buyer Disclosure Schedule attached hereto are hereby incorporated herein by reference and made a part hereof. Except as otherwise provided in the Seller Disclosure Schedule, all capitalized terms therein shall have the meanings assigned to them in this Agreement. Matters reflected in the Seller Disclosure Schedule are not necessarily limited to matters required by this Agreement to be disclosed. No (a) disclosure made in the Seller Disclosure Schedule shall constitute an admission or determination that any fact or matter so disclosed is material, has had or could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect on any of the Company Entities, meets a dollar or other threshold set forth in this Agreement or would otherwise be required to be disclosed and (b) Person shall use the fact of the setting of a threshold or the inclusion of such facts or matters in any dispute or controversy as to whether any obligation, amount, fact or matter is or is not material, is or is not in excess of a dollar or other threshold or would otherwise be required to be disclosed, for purposes of this Agreement. Information disclosed in any Section of the Seller Disclosure Schedule delivered will qualify any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement in this Agreement to the extent that the relevance or applicability of the information disclosed to any such representation, warranty, covenant or agreement is reasonably apparent on its face, notwithstanding the absence of a reference or cross-reference to such representation, warranty, covenant or agreement in such Section of the Seller Disclosure Schedule or the absence of a reference or cross-reference to such Section of the Seller Disclosure Schedule in such representation, warranty, covenant or agreement. No disclosure in the Seller Disclosure Schedule relating to any possible breach or violation of any agreement or Law shall be construed as an admission or indication that any such breach or violation exists or has actually occurred.

Section 10.6Headings. The table of contents and section headings contained in this Agreement are for reference purposes only and shall not be deemed a part of this Agreement or affect in any way the meaning or interpretation of this Agreement.

Section 10.7Construction. The Parties have participated jointly in the negotiation and drafting of this Agreement. In the event an ambiguity or question of intent or interpretation arises, this Agreement shall be construed as if drafted jointly by the Parties and no presumption or burden of proof shall arise favoring or disfavoring any Party by virtue of the authorship of any of the provisions of this Agreement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, each representation and warranty in this Agreement is given independent effect so that if a particular representation and warranty proves to be inaccurate or is breached, the fact that another representation and warranty concerning the same or similar subject matter is true or is not breached, whether such other representation and warranty is more general or more specific, narrower or broader or otherwise, will not affect the inaccuracy or breach of such particular representation and warranty.

Section 10.8Entire Agreement. This Agreement (including the Schedules and the Exhibits hereto), the other Transaction Documents and the Confidentiality Agreement constitute the entire agreement among the Parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and thereof and supersede any prior understandings, negotiations, agreements, or representations among the Parties of any nature, whether written or oral, to the extent they relate in any way to the subject matter hereof or thereof.

Section 10.9Severability. If any provision of this Agreement or the application of any such provision to any Person or circumstance shall be declared by any court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, illegal, void or unenforceable in any respect, all other provisions of this Agreement, or the application of such provision to Persons or circumstances other than those as to which it has been held invalid, illegal, void or unenforceable, shall nevertheless remain in full force and effect and shall in no way be affected, impaired or invalidated thereby. Upon such determination that any provision, or the application of any such provision, is invalid, illegal, void or unenforceable, the Parties shall negotiate in good faith to modify this Agreement so as to effect the original intent of the Parties as closely as possible to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law in an acceptable manner to the end that the transactions contemplated hereby are fulfilled to the greatest extent possible. Notwithstanding anything contained herein, under no circumstance shall the obligation of Seller to deliver the Project Holding Company Interests be enforceable absent enforceability of the obligation of Buyer to pay the Purchase Price, and vice versa.

Section 10.10Expenses.

(a)Buyer shall be responsible for, and shall pay directly or promptly reimburse Seller for amounts paid by or on behalf of Seller or any other Seller Related Party, (i) any and all costs of any filing fees with respect to any filings required under the HSR Act or FERC in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby regardless of which Party is obligated under applicable Law or otherwise incurs any such fees, (ii) premiums, fees, costs or expenses (including underwriting fees, Taxes, surcharges and brokerage commissions) incurred by any Buyer Related Party in obtaining any R&W Policy, (iii) premiums, fees, costs or expenses (including Taxes, surcharges and brokerage commissions) related to the D&O Insurance, (iv) obligations incurred by, on behalf of, or at the direction of any Buyer Related Party (including in connection with any financing of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement), (v) premiums, fees, costs or expenses (including Taxes, surcharges and brokerage commissions) related to any title insurance policy covering any Owned Real Property, and (vi) costs and expenses Buyer is required to bear pursuant to Section 6.13 and Section 6.14 (the foregoing clauses (i) through (vi), collectively, “Buyer Expenses”).

(b)Unless otherwise provided herein, including the Buyer Expenses, each of ▇▇▇▇▇ and ▇▇▇▇▇▇ agrees to pay, without right of reimbursement from the other, all costs and expenses incurred by it incident to the negotiation, preparation, execution and delivery of this

Agreement and the other Transaction Documents, the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby and its performance of its obligations hereunder and thereunder, including the fees and disbursements of counsel, accountants, financial advisors, experts and consultants employed by the respective Parties in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby, whether or not the transactions contemplated by this Agreement are consummated.

Section 10.11No Recourse Against Non-Recourse Persons. Except for the rights and remedies of Buyer with respect to the R&W Policy and in the case of Fraud, solely against the Person committing such Fraud, all claims, obligations, Liabilities, or Actions (whether in contract or in tort, in equity or at Law, or granted by statute) that may be based upon, in respect of, arise under, out or by reason of, be connected with, or relate in any manner to this Agreement, or the negotiation, execution, or performance of this Agreement (including any representation or warranty made in, in connection with, or as an inducement to, this Agreement), may be made only against (and are those solely of) the entities that are expressly identified as “Parties” in the preamble to this Agreement (the “Contracting Parties”). No Person who is not a Contracting Party, including any Buyer Related Party or Seller Related Party, but excluding the insurer under the R&W Policy (the “Non-Recourse Persons”), shall have any Liability (whether in contract or in tort, in equity or at Law, or granted by statute) for any claims, causes of action, obligations, or Liabilities arising under, out of, in connection with, or related in any manner to this Agreement or based on, in respect of, or by reason of this Agreement or in its negotiation, execution, performance, or breach; and, to the maximum extent permitted by applicable Law, each Contracting Party hereby waives and releases all such Liabilities, claims, Actions and obligations against any such Non-Recourse Persons. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, to the maximum extent permitted by applicable Law, (a) each Contracting Party hereby waives and releases any and all rights, claims, demands, or Actions that may otherwise be available in equity or at Law, or granted by statute, to avoid or disregard the entity form of a Contracting Party or otherwise impose Liability of a Contracting Party on any Non-Recourse Persons, whether granted by statute or based on theories of equity, agency, control, instrumentality, alter ego, domination, sham, single business enterprise, piercing the veil, unfairness, undercapitalization, or otherwise; and (b) each Contracting Party disclaims any reliance upon any Non-Recourse Persons with respect to the performance of this Agreement or any representation or warranty made in, in connection with, or as an inducement to this Agreement.

Section 10.12Remedies. The Parties agree that irreparable damage would occur (for which monetary relief, even if available, would not be an adequate remedy) in the event that any of the provisions of this Agreement were not performed by any Party, as applicable, in accordance with their specific terms or were otherwise breached by any Party, as applicable, including if the Parties fail to take any action required of them hereunder to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (including Buyer’s obligations to consummate the Closing). It is accordingly agreed that (i) the Parties shall be entitled to an injunction or injunctions, specific performance, or other equitable relief to prevent breaches of this Agreement by any Party, as applicable, and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions hereof against each Party, as applicable, without proof of damages or otherwise, this being in addition to any other remedy to which the Parties are entitled at law or in equity and (ii) the right of specific performance and other equitable relief is an integral part of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and without that right, none of the Parties would have entered into this Agreement. The Parties agree not to assert that a remedy of specific performance or other equitable relief is unenforceable, invalid, contrary to law or inequitable for any reason, and agree not to assert that a remedy of monetary damages would provide an adequate remedy or that the Parties otherwise have an adequate remedy at law. The Parties acknowledge and agree that any Party seeking an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of this Agreement or to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this Agreement in accordance with this Section 10.12 shall not be required to provide any bond or other security in connection with any such order or injunction.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, from and after the Closing, no Party shall have, and to the fullest extent permitted by Law, each Party hereby expressly, irrevocably and unconditionally waives and releases, any right of rescission or any similar equitable right or remedy.

Section 10.13Legal Representation.

(a)It is acknowledged by each of the Parties that the Company Entities and Seller have retained ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ LLP (collectively, “Seller’s Counsel”) to act as their counsel in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby and that Seller’s Counsel has not acted as counsel for any other Party in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby and that none of the other Parties has the status of a client of any of Seller’s Counsel for conflict of interest or any other purposes as a result thereof. Seller and Buyer hereby agree that, in the event that any dispute, or any other matter in which the interests of Seller and its Affiliates, on the one hand, and Buyer and its Affiliates (including the Company Entities), on the other hand, are adverse, arises after the Closing between Buyer or the Company Entities, on the one hand, and Seller and its Affiliates, on the other hand, Seller’s Counsel may represent any or all of Seller and its Affiliates in such dispute even though the interests of Seller and its Affiliates may be directly adverse to Buyer or the Company Entities, and even though Seller’s Counsel formerly may have represented the Company Entities in any matter substantially related to such dispute.

(b)Seller and its Affiliates and Buyer and its Affiliates (including the Company Entities following the Closing with respect to Buyer), acknowledge and agree that, in connection with any future disputes, lawsuits, actions, proceedings, investigations or other matters, including any dispute between Buyer, the Company Entities or any of its or their respective Affiliates, on the one hand, and Seller or any of its Affiliates, on the other hand, or with or between any other Persons, with respect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, (i) as to all communications among Seller’s Counsel, the Company Entities, Seller or any of its Affiliates, the attorney-client privilege, attorney work product protection and the expectation of client confidence belongs solely to Seller or its Affiliates (other than the Company Entities), and may be controlled by Seller or its Affiliates (other than the Company Entities), and shall not pass to or be claimed by ▇▇▇▇▇, the Company Entities, or any of their respective Affiliates and (ii) Seller’s Counsel may disclose to Seller or its Affiliates any information learned by Seller’s Counsel in the course of its representation of Seller, the Company Entities or their respective Affiliates, whether or not such information is subject to attorney-client privilege, attorney work product protection, of Seller’s Counsel’s duty of confidentiality. Accordingly, Buyer and its Affiliates shall not have access to any such communications, or to the files of Seller’s Counsel, whether or not the Closing occurs. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, upon and after the Closing, (A) to the extent that files of Seller’s Counsel constitute property of the client, only Seller and its Affiliates shall hold such property rights and (B) Seller’s Counsel shall have no duty whatsoever to reveal or disclose any such attorney-client communications or files to Buyer or the Company Entities by reason of any attorney-client relationship between Seller’s Counsel and the Company Entities or otherwise.

(c)If and to the extent that, at any time subsequent to Closing, Buyer or any of its Affiliates (including the Company Entities) shall have the right to assert or waive any attorney-client privilege with respect to any communication between the Company Entities or its Affiliates and any Person representing them that occurred at any time prior to the Closing, Buyer, on behalf of itself and its Affiliates (including the Company Entities), shall be entitled to waive such privilege only with the consent of Seller.

Section 10.14Governing Law. This Agreement and all claims arising out of or relating to this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby shall be governed by the Laws of the State of New York.

Section 10.15Consent to Jurisdiction and Venue; Waiver of Jury Trial.

(a)The Parties irrevocably submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of (a) the state courts located in the State of New York and (b) the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York, with respect to any Action or other proceeding arising out of this Agreement or any transaction contemplated hereby (including any claim to enforce the expert determination provisions of this agreement) or any document or instrument delivered at Closing. Each of the Parties agrees to commence any Action or proceeding relating hereto in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York or if such Action or other proceeding may not be brought in such court for jurisdictional reasons, in the state courts located in the State of New York. Each of the Parties irrevocably and unconditionally waives any objection to the laying of venue of any Action or proceeding arising out of this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby in (i) the state courts located in the State of New York or (ii) the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York, and hereby further irrevocably and unconditionally agrees not to plead or claim in any such court that any such Action or proceeding brought in any such court has been brought in an inconvenient forum or to raise any similar defense or objection.

(b)EACH OF THE PARTIES HEREBY KNOWINGLY, VOLUNTARILY AND INTENTIONALLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY LITIGATION BASED ON, OR ARISING OUT OF, UNDER OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT AND ANY AGREEMENT CONTEMPLATED TO BE EXECUTED IN CONNECTION HEREWITH, OR ANY COURSE OF CONDUCT, COURSE OF DEALING, STATEMENTS (WHETHER VERBAL OR WRITTEN) OR ACTIONS OF ANY PARTY. THIS PROVISION IS A MATERIAL INDUCEMENT FOR THE PARTIES ENTERING INTO THIS AGREEMENT.

Section 10.16Counterparts and Electronic Signatures. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which, when executed, shall be deemed an original, but all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument binding upon all of the Parties notwithstanding the fact that all Parties are not signatory to the original or the same counterpart. This Agreement may be executed electronically (including by means of .pdf or similar graphic reproduction format or by means of digital signature software, e.g. DocuSign or Adobe Sign) and delivered by e-mail or other similar means of electronic transmission, and any electronic signature shall constitute an original for all purposes.

Section 10.17Debt Financing Sources. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, each Party hereby: (a) agrees that any action, whether in law or in equity, whether in contract or in tort or otherwise, involving the sources in respect of the Debt Financing, arising out of or relating to, this Agreement, the Debt Financing or any of the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby or the performance of any services thereunder shall be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of any federal or state court in the Borough of Manhattan, New York, New York, so long as such forum is and remains available, and any appellate court thereof and each Party hereto irrevocably submits itself and its property with respect to any such action to the exclusive jurisdiction of such court, and such action (except to the extent relating to the interpretation of any provisions in this Agreement (including any provision in any documentation related to the Debt Financing that expressly specifies that the interpretation of such provisions shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the law of the State of Delaware)) shall be governed by the laws of the State of New York (without giving effect to any conflicts of law principles that would result in the application of the laws of another jurisdiction), (b) agrees not to bring or support any action or proceeding of any kind or description, whether in law or in equity, whether in contract or in tort or otherwise, against any source in respect of the Debt Financing in any way arising out of or relating to, this Agreement, the Debt Financing, or any of the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby or the performance of any services

thereunder in any forum other than any federal or state court in the Borough of Manhattan, New York, New York (and any appellate court thereof), and agrees that a final judgment in any such action may be enforced in other jurisdictions by action on the judgment or in any other manner provided by Law, (c) agrees that service of process upon any party in any such action or proceeding shall be effective if notice is given in accordance with Section 10.3, (d) irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent that it may effectively do so, the defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of such action in any such court, (e) knowingly, intentionally and voluntarily waives to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law trial by jury in any action brought against the sources in respect of the Debt Financing in any way arising out of or relating to, this Agreement, the Debt Financing or any of the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby or the performance of any services thereunder, (f) (i) waives any claims or rights against any sources of the Debt Financing relating to or arising out of this Agreement, the Debt Financing and the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, whether at law or in equity and whether in tort, contract or otherwise, (ii) agrees not to bring or support or permit any of its Subsidiaries or its or their respective Affiliates to bring or support any suit, action or proceeding of any kind or description, whether in law or in equity, whether in contract or in tort or otherwise, against any sources of the Debt Financing in any way arising out of or relating to, this Agreement, the Debt Financing or any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and (iii) agrees that none of the sources in respect of the Debt Financing shall have any liability to Seller or the Companies or any of their respective Non-Recourse Persons relating to or arising out of this Agreement, the Debt Financing or any of the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby or the performance of any services thereunder or in respect of any oral or other representations made or alleged to be made in connection herewith or therewith, whether in law or in equity, whether in contract or in tort or otherwise, and (g) agrees that the sources in respect of the Debt Financing are express third party beneficiaries of, and may enforce, any of the provisions in this Section 10.17 as applicable to sources in respect of the Debt Financing, and such provisions shall not be amended in any way adverse to any sources in respect of the Debt Financing without the prior written consent of the sources in respect of the Debt Financing party to the commitment letter in respect of the Debt Financing. In furtherance and not in limitation of the foregoing waiver, it is acknowledged and agreed that no source in respect of the Debt Financing shall be subject to any special, consequential, punitive or indirect damages or damages of a tortious nature. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this Section 10.17 shall affect the rights of Buyer against the sources in respect of the Debt Financing with respect to the Debt Financing or any of the transactions contemplated thereby.

For purposes of this Section 10.17, “sources of the Debt Financing” shall be interpreted to include the Persons that have committed to provide or arrange or otherwise have entered into agreements in connection with all or any part of the Debt Financing in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (solely in their capacity as sources of the Debt Financing), including the parties to any commitment letters, joinder agreements or credit agreements entered pursuant thereto or relating thereto and each of their respective Affiliates, and their Affiliates’ current or future officers, directors, employees, agents, representatives, stockholders, limited partners, managers, members or partners and their successors and assigns.
