CET is an EWG, and the Facility is an "eligible facility" as defined in Section 32 of PUHCA. Neither Seller nor CET has knowledge of any pending or threatened inquiry, investigation, or challenge relating to CET's past or present status as an EWG, nor knowledge of any fact or circumstance that would reasonably form the basis of a challenge to such status or that would be reasonably likely to cause CET to lose its past or present EWG status.

There is no fact or circumstance that would reasonably form the legal grounds for a Claim against CET seeking to have an existing Contract determined to be void, voidable, or invalid under Section 26(c) of PUHCA, which Claim, if successful, would reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

4.19Undisclosed_Liabilities. Except to the extent that it would not reasonably be expected to cause a Material Adverse Effect, or except as set forth in Schedule 4.19, no Project Company has any liabilities or obligations of any nature or type required by GAAP to be presented on such Project Company's balance sheet or income statement (whether absolute or contingent, liquidated or unliquidated, or due or to become due) except for liabilities and obligations (i) presented or reserved for on such Project Company's balance sheet or income statement, or (ii) that, after the date of the last balance sheet or income statement delivered to Buyer, have arisen in the ordinary course of business and are consistent with the past practice of such Project Company.

5.2Conflicts; Consents.

Conflicts. Neither the execution and delivery by it of this Agreement or any Ancillary Document, nor the consummation by it of the Sale will,

its Organic Documents, or

any Contract by which it or any of its assets is bound, except for such conflicts, violations, defaults, rights of termination, cancellation, modification or acceleration, or losses of benefits, that would not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to hinder or prevent it from performing its obligations hereunder; or

violate any Law, the result of which would reasonably be expected to hinder or prevent it from performing its obligations hereunder.

It agrees that ▇▇▇▇▇▇ has furnished it with information about, and access to, the same, that has been, in all cases, excepting any fraud or willful misconduct on the part of Seller, sufficient and complete enough to, when

26 considered in light of Seller's representations, warranties and disclosures (including the Disclosures) hereunder, allow it to perform an informed evaluation of each risk associated with the Facility, the Site, the Project Companies, the Project Assets and the "as is" "where is" nature of the Sale. Other than the matters specifically addressed herein, it relies solely and exclusively upon its own evaluations of the Facility, the Site, the Project Companies and the Project Assets in entering into this Agreement. The provisions contained in this Agreement are the result of extensive negotiations between the Parties, and no other assurances, representations or warranties about the quality, condition, or state of the Facility, the Site, the Project Companies or the Project Assets were made by Seller in the inducement thereof, except as provided herein.

6.5 Operators.

Seller covenants and agrees that, until the Closing, it will, and will cause the Project Companies to, provide Buyer's Representatives, upon reasonable notice, with access, during regular business hours and subject to the willingness of the Operators to meet with ▇▇▇▇▇'s Representatives, to the Operators; provided, that Seller makes no representations or warranties in respect of any decisions any Operator may make in respect of future employment and reserves the right to disclose the terms and conditions set forth in this Section 6.5 to each Operator; provided, further, that Seller will use reasonable efforts to encourage the Operators to meet with ▇▇▇▇▇'s Representatives and favorably consider ▇▇▇▇▇'s offers of employment.

Buyer covenants and agrees to use commercially reasonable efforts prior to Closing to effect the termination at Closing of and the full and unconditional release of Seller Affiliates (other than the Project Companies), including delivery to Seller of the originals thereof held by the Persons that are beneficiaries thereto, from the support obligations undertaken by any such Seller Affiliate in connection with each of the Contracts listed in Schedule 6.9 (the "Support Obligations"); provided, that if the beneficiary of any Support Obligation requires that it be replaced by a new support obligation in return for such release, then Buyer shall offer to replace such Support Obligation with other support obligations, of up to an equivalent amount in the aggregate to the existing Support Obligation, consisting of one or a combination of the following (i) a letter of credit, (ii) a guarantee by a Buyer Affiliate

31 selected by ▇▇▇▇▇, or (iii) funds placed in escrow ("Equivalent Support Obligation"). After the date hereof and terminating upon the earlier of the Closing or termination of this Agreement, Buyer shall have the right to contact and have discussions with the beneficiary of each such Support Obligation in order to satisfy its obligations under this Section 6.9; provided, however, (A) Seller shall have the right to have Representatives present during any such contact or discussion, (B) Buyer shall only contact and hold discussions with such beneficiaries through the Buyer's Representatives previously approved by Seller, and (C) Buyer shall cause its Representatives to comply with all reasonable procedures and protocols regarding such contacts and discussions required by Seller.

6.10Casualty_and_Condemnation

Prior to the Closing Date, all risk of loss, damage or other casualty to or condemnation of the Project Assets shall be borne by Seller, and Seller shall promptly notify Buyer of any such loss, damage, casualty, condemnation or any other change in condition of the Project Assets.

Subject to Section 6.10(d), Seller shall repair, prior to the Closing Date and to the previous condition of the Project Assets, any damage, loss or casualty to the Project Assets or breakage of any component of the Project Assets that occurs if the amount of such damage, loss or breakage does not exceed $5,000,000; provided, that Buyer shall cause any and all insurance proceeds in respect of such damage, loss or casualty paid to any Project Company after the Closing Date, up to the amount of the costs to Seller to complete the repair, to be assigned or delivered to Seller.

If any Purchased Asset or part thereof shall be taken by condemnation prior to the Closing Date, and such Project Asset or part thereof does not have a condemnation value in excess of $5,000,000, Seller may (i) elect to reduce the Purchase Price by such condemnation value (less the amount of any condemnation award payable to CET or CET One after Closing), which election shall not otherwise release the Parties from their obligations in respect of the Closing or (ii) terminate this Agreement upon 10 days' notice to Buyer.

In the event of any damage, loss, casualty or condemnation in excess of the amounts set forth in Sections 6.10(b) and 6.10(c), either Party may elect, in its sole discretion, to terminate this Agreement upon 10 days' notice to the other Party.

6.11Environmental_Insurance. Buyer has obtained the indications in Schedule 6.11 of insurance policies that Buyer can purchase to cover certain Losses arising out of certain Environmental Site Conditions. At its cost, so long as Closing occurs, Buyer covenants and agrees to use reasonable commercial efforts to obtain the Environmental Insurance. Buyer covenants and agrees that, for so long as it maintains the Environmental Insurance obtained in connection herewith, it shall undertake reasonable commercial efforts to ensure that Seller, Seller Parent, WEC and their Affiliates are additional named insureds; provided, however, that any claims thereunder with respect to such additional named insureds shall be limited to the duration of the survival period for indemnity obligations set forth in Section 9.1(a)(i) and in no event shall the amount of any payments to such additional named insureds exceed the lesser of $5,000,000 or fifty percent (50%) of the then existing remaining aggregate policy limits of such Environmental Insurance. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this Agreement shall prevent Buyer from taking any action after Closing that it deems appropriate in order to comply with Environmental Laws, to obtain a "No Further Remediation Letter" pursuant to the Illinois Site Remediation Program administered by the Illinois Environmental Protection Agency, or to take any action with respect to the Environmental Insurance, including actions that result in the lapse or cancellation thereof.

6.12Gas_Costs.

Prior to Closing, Seller and Buyer shall each use reasonable commercial efforts to seek to sell or utilize natural gas in storage owned by CET in order to reduce the volume in storage to at or about 24,000 decatherms; provided, however, that Seller shall be obligated to give effect to any sale of natural gas in storage owned by CET arranged by ▇▇▇▇▇'s gas marketing staff at a price, net of any applicable sale transaction fees or costs to Seller's account, equal to or greater than $5.92 per decatherm. Buyer understands and agrees that the Transportation Agreement does not permit resale of natural gas in storage and that any sales of such gas will require consent under the Transportation Agreement, which Seller shall be required to use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event shall CET be required to operate the Facility at any time that such operation would cause a loss.

For the purpose of the calculation of Working Capital, on the Closing Date the value of any natural gas in storage under the Transportation Agreement shall be calculated at a value equal to $5.92 per decatherm. If, prior to Closing, any of the natural gas in storage owned by CET is sold due, in whole or in part, to the gas marketing efforts of Buyer's gas marketing staff, then the profit or loss relative to $5.92 per decatherm (net of any applicable sale transaction fees or costs to Seller's account) on any such sales shall be for the account of Buyer as an adjustment to the Working Capital.

Buyer covenants and agrees to pay any Taxes imposed on a Project Company with respect to any Tax period beginning after the Closing Date, or with respect to any Tax period beginning before and ending after the Closing Date, to the extent allocable to the portion of such period after the Closing Date.

For purposes of this Agreement, in the case of any Taxes that are payable for a period that begins before and ends after the Closing Date, the portion of such Taxes allocable to the period that ends on the Closing Date shall (i) in the case of any property or ad valorem Taxes, be deemed to be the amount of such Tax for the entire Tax period multiplied by a fraction the numerator of which is the number of days in the Tax period ending on the Closing Date and the denominator of which is the number of days in the entire Tax period and (ii) in the case of any other Tax (including any income Taxes or sales and use Taxes), be deemed equal to the amount that would be payable as computed on a closing of the books basis if the relevant Tax period ended on the Closing Date.

Each Party shall cooperate fully, as and to the extent reasonably requested by the other Party, in connection with the filing of any Tax Returns relating to the Project Companies and the filing and prosecution of any Tax Claims relating to the Project Companies. Such cooperation shall include the retention and (upon the other Party's request) the provision of records and information that are reasonably relevant to any such Claim and making employees available on a mutually convenient basis to provide additional information and explanation of any material provided hereunder.

Seller shall cause the provisions of any agreement, arrangement or practice with respect to Taxes (including any Tax sharing agreements) between Seller and any of its Affiliates (other than the Project Companies), on the one hand, and any of the Project Companies, on the other hand, to be terminated on or before the Closing Date, and after the Closing Date the Project Companies shall not have any obligations under such agreements.

8.3Severance_Payments. Seller covenants and agrees to cause any Closing Severance Payments paid to Seller at Closing to be paid to the Operators for whom such payments are intended pursuant to the definition of Closing Severance Payments in Section_1.1. The Parties agree that Buyer's payment of the Closing Severance Payments to Seller pursuant to Section 2.1(a) of this Agreement is not being made in consideration for the Purchased Interests, Buyer is making such payments to the Seller solely in order to enable Seller to pay such amounts to applicable Operators in satisfaction of the Buyer's obligation to make such payments, and for tax purposes such payment will be treated as if Buyer paid such amounts directly to such Operators. After Closing, Buyer covenants and agrees to pay any Post-closing Severance Payments directly to any Operators for whom such payments are intended pursuant to the definition of Post-closing Severance Payments in Section 1.1.

8.4Excluded_Items. After Closing, if Buyer receives or takes possession of any Excluded Items, or any of the proceeds or economic benefit of Excluded Items, Buyer shall promptly deliver, transfer, convey, assign and turn over any of the foregoing to Seller, including executing any documents or instruments required in connection therewith.

8.5Insurance_Claims. After Closing, if Claims for personal injury or property damage arising out of occurrences prior to Closing, which are covered by the Insurance Policies, are made against Buyer or any Project Company, then Buyer shall be entitled to access such Insurance Policies and the proceeds thereof in respect of such Claims; provided, that Seller shall have control of such Claims and shall conduct the same in accordance with customary practices and in accordance with any reasonable requirements of Seller, recognizing that such Claims are being made under the Insurance Policies that continue to apply for the benefit of Seller.

ARTICLE 9.

SURVIVAL OF REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES; INDEMNIFICATION

9.1Survival_of_Representations,_Warranties_and_Covenants.

If the Closing occurs, except as provided in Section 9.6, all representations, warranties, covenants and obligations in this Agreement shall survive until and 38 expire eighteen months after the Closing Date; provided, that the representations, warranties, covenants and obligations contained in (i) Sections 4.14 and 11.16 shall survive for three years after the Closing Date, (ii) Sections 4.4, 4.5, 6.1(h), 6.1(j), 6.7, and 8.2 shall survive after the Closing Date for the greater of (A) three years or (B) the duration of any applicable statute of limitations, and (iii) Sections 3.1, 3.2, 4.1, 4.3, 5.1, 6.1(b), 6.1(c), and 9.2(a)(ii) shall survive the Closing Date without limitation.

If the Closing does not occur and this Agreement is terminated pursuant to Section 10.1, the representations, warranties, covenants and obligations in this Agreement shall survive, for the sole purpose of any indemnities provided in this ARTICLE 9, until and expire on six months after the date of such termination.

9.2Indemnification_by_Seller.

Subject to Section 9.2(b), Seller hereby agrees to indemnify, defend and hold harmless each Buyer Indemnified Party from and against any Loss incurred by such Buyer Indemnified Party as a result of (i) any breach of a Seller representation or warranty contained herein, or any breach by Seller of, or default in the performance by Seller of, any covenant, agreement or obligation to be performed by Seller pursuant to this Agreement, and (ii) any Environmental Former Property Conditions. For the avoidance of doubt, Seller shall only be obligated to indemnify a Buyer Indemnified Party for a Loss arising out of Environmental Site Conditions to the extent such indemnification obligation arises pursuant to Section 9.2(a)(i). Any amounts payable by Seller for an indemnified Loss arising out of an Environmental Site Condition shall (A) include any deductible up to $500,000 payable under any Environmental Insurance due to a Claim ("Environmental Insurance Deductible"), and (B) be limited to Losses net of any recovery by any Buyer Indemnified Party of Environmental Insurance proceeds (or any other insurance proceeds) received in respect of such Loss, if any.

Seller shall have no liability to any Buyer Indemnified Party under Section 9.2(a)(i) unless and until, and then only to the extent that, such Buyer Indemnified Party has suffered or incurred Losses consisting of actual damages aggregating in excess of $1,000,000, whereupon such Buyer Indemnified Party shall be entitled to claim indemnification for the amount of its Losses in excess of such amount; provided, however, the foregoing limitation shall not apply to (i) Losses covered by Section 9.2(a)(ii); (ii) Losses covered by Section 9.2(a)(i) to the extent such Losses are related to a breach by Seller of its covenant in Section 8.2 arising from or related to real estate taxes for any tax parcels which include the Site or any portion thereof; or (iii) the obligation of Seller in Section 9.2(a) to pay the amount of the Environmental Insurance Deductible, nor shall such amounts, in each case, be given effect for the purpose of determining whether the aggregate amount of $1,000,000 is exceeded.

To the extent that Seller pays any Loss to or on behalf of any Buyer Indemnified Party, such Buyer Indemnified Party shall, as a condition of such payment, assign, transfer and convey all of its right, title and interest in and to any claim of such Buyer Indemnified Party against any Person for such Loss up to the amount of such payment, including any claim under any policies of insurance, to Seller or an Affiliate of Seller. Such Buyer Indemnified Party shall not prejudice or impair the rights of Seller under this Section 9.2(c), and 39 Buyer shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cooperate and assist Seller in the exercise of such rights.

9.3Indemnification_by_Buyer.

Subject to Section 9.3(b), ▇▇▇▇▇ hereby agrees to indemnify, defend and hold harmless each Seller Indemnified Party from and against any Loss incurred by such Seller Indemnified Party as a result of any breach of a Buyer representation or warranty contained herein, or any breach by Buyer of, or default in the performance by Buyer of, any covenant, agreement or obligation to be performed by Buyer pursuant to this Agreement. Any amounts payable by Buyer for an indemnified Loss arising out of an Environmental Site Condition shall be limited to Losses net of any recovery by any Seller Indemnified Party of Environmental Insurance proceeds (or any other insurance proceeds) received in respect of such Loss, if any

Buyer shall have no liability to any Seller Indemnified Party under Section 9.3(a) unless and until, and then only to the extent that, such Seller Indemnified Party has suffered or incurred Losses consisting of actual damages aggregating in excess of $1,000,000, whereupon such Seller Indemnified Party shall be entitled to claim indemnification for the amount of its Losses in excess of such amount; provided, however, the foregoing limitation shall not apply to Losses arising out of Buyer's obligation under Section 6.9 to cause the beneficiaries of any Unreleased Support Obligations to release any Seller Affiliate, nor shall such Losses be given effect for the purpose of determining whether the aggregate amount of $1,000,000 is exceeded.

To the extent that Buyer pays any Loss to or on behalf of any Seller Indemnified Party, such Seller Indemnified Party shall, as a condition of such payment, assign, transfer and convey all of its right, title and interest in and to any claim of such Seller Indemnified Party against any Person for such Loss up to the amount of such payment, including any claim under any policies of insurance, to Buyer or an Affiliate of Buyer. Such Seller Indemnified Party shall not prejudice or impair the rights of Buyer under this Section 9.3(c), and Seller shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cooperate and assist Buyer in the exercise of such rights.

9.4Matters_Involving_Third_Parties.

If any third party shall notify an Indemnified Party of either Party with respect to any matter that would give rise to a Claim subject to indemnification hereunder against the other Party (the "Indemnifying Party"), then such Indemnified Party shall promptly provide notice (and in any event by the sooner to occur of (i) ten days after receipt of notice by it, and (ii) five days prior to the date a responsive pleading is due) thereof to the Indemnifying Party; provided, however, that no delay on the part of the Indemnified Party in notifying the Indemnifying Party shall relieve the Indemnifying Party from any obligation hereunder unless (and then solely to the extent) the Indemnifying Party is materially prejudiced thereby.

The Indemnifying Party shall have the right to defend the Indemnified Party against such Claim with counsel of its choice reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party so long as (i) the Indemnifying Party promptly notifies the Indemnified Party that the 40 Indemnifying Party will indemnify the Indemnified Party, to the extent indemnification is provided for hereunder, and (ii) the Indemnifying Party thereafter conducts the defense of such Claim as actively and diligently as is reasonably appropriate.

For so long as the Indemnifying Party is conducting the defense of a Claim in accordance with Section 9.4(b), (i) the Indemnified Party may retain separate co-counsel at its sole cost and expense and participate in the defense of such Claim, (ii) the Indemnified Party shall not consent to the entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement with respect to such Claim without the prior consent of the Indemnifying Party (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld), (iii) the Indemnifying Party shall not consent to the entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement with respect to such Claim unless a written agreement is obtained releasing the Indemnified Party from all liability thereunder, and (iv) the Indemnifying Party shall not consent to the entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement with respect to such Claim, which involves an injunction or other equitable relief, without the consent of the Indemnified Party, which consent will not be unreasonably withheld.

In the event that the Indemnifying Party does not exercise its right pursuant to Section 9.4(b) or at any time fails to satisfy any of the conditions in Section 9.4(c), (i) the Indemnified Party may defend against, and consent to the entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement with respect to, such Claim in any manner it may reasonably deem appropriate (and the Indemnified Party need not consult with, or obtain any consent from, the Indemnifying Party in connection therewith), (ii) subject to the limitations contained in Sections 9.2(b), 9.3(b), and 9.5, the Indemnifying Party shall reimburse the Indemnified Party promptly for the costs of defending against such Claim (including attorneys' fees and expenses); provided, that the Third Party Claim is subject to indemnification hereunder, and (iii) the Indemnifying Party shall remain responsible for any Loss the Indemnified Party may incur to the extent provided in Sections 9.2 and 9.3, as applicable.

9.5 Limitations_on_Indemnification. Notwithstanding anything else to the contrary in this Agreement:

Except for liability pursuant to Section 9.2(a)(ii), in no event shall the aggregate liability under this Agreement of either Party exceed:

fifty percent (50%) of the Base Price , unless such liability arises under a provision of this Agreement expressly identified in Section 9.5(a)(ii); and

the Base Price, if such liability arises pursuant to Section 9.2(a)(i) for a Loss arising out of Sections 3.1, 3.2, 4.1, 4.3, 4.4, 4.5, 5.1, 6.1(b), 6.1(c), 6.1(h), 6.1(j), 6.7 or 8.2;

provided, that the Indemnified Party with respect to (A) any liability limited under Section 9.5(a)(i) shall continue to be indemnified with respect thereto, throughout the applicable survival period set forth in Section 9.1, until either (I) the total amount paid in the aggregate in respect of liabilities limited under Section 9.5(a)(i) equals fifty percent (50%) of the Base Price or (II) the total amount paid

41 in the aggregate in respect of all liabilities that are subject to this Section 9.5(a) equals the Base Price, whichever occurs first, and (B) any liability limited under Section 9.5(a)(ii) shall continue to be indemnified with respect thereto, throughout the applicable survival period set forth in Section 9.1, until the total amount paid in the aggregate in respect of all liabilities that are subject to this Section 9.5(a) equals the Base Price.

Except for liability pursuant to Section 9.2(a)(ii), in no event shall the aggregate liability under this Agreement of either Party exceed the Base Price;

In determining the amount of an Indemnified Party's Losses, all representations and warranties herein shall be deemed to have been made without any qualifications relating to knowledge or materiality;

Except to the extent of Losses arising out of Claims, Seller, for itself and for each Seller Indemnified Party, and Buyer, for itself and for each Buyer Indemnified Party, hereby mutually release and covenant not to sue the other Party for any Losses arising out of any Affected Soils or Groundwater;

Seller shall have no obligation or liability to any Buyer Indemnified Party for any Losses or Claims to the extent arising out of any voluntary environmental investigation or remediation actions undertaken by Buyer or its Affiliates at the Site. For purposes of clarification of this Section 9.5(e), "voluntary investigation or remediation actions" shall not include (i) a choice by Buyer between different investigation or remediation options in response to a Claim by a Governmental Authority, (ii) construction activities undertaken by Buyer, (iii) such actions that are in respect of Hazardous Substances that are transported from the Site and disposed of in violation of any Environmental Law or Permit, or (iv) emergency response actions initiated in response to a Release at the Site of Hazardous Substances after Closing; and

Seller may, at its option, include in the Schedules items that are not material in order to avoid any misunderstanding, and any such inclusion, shall not be deemed to be an acknowledgment or representation that such items are material, to establish any standard of materiality or to define further the meaning of such terms for purposes of this Agreement.

9.6Expiry_and_Survival_of_Indemnities. After the expiration of the relevant survival period set forth in Section 9.1, in the event that a Party provides notice of a claim for indemnification to the other Party that otherwise would be liable to indemnify such Party hereunder, such other Party shall have no obligation to indemnify such Party. Any claims by any Buyer Indemnified Party for indemnification from Seller under Section 9.2(a) or by any Seller Indemnified Party for indemnification from Buyer under Section 9.3(a) must be notified prior to the expiration of the applicable survival period specified in Section 9.1. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the expiration of the relevant survival period set forth in Section 9.1, shall not relieve a Party of its indemnification obligations hereunder in respect of any claim for indemnification if proper notice of such claim shall have been provided to such Party prior to the expiration of such survival period.

ARTICLE 10.

TERMINATION

10.1 Termination. This Agreement may be terminated at any time prior to the Closing Date by:

the mutual written agreement of the Parties;

either Party, by notice to the other Party if the other Party has (and the terminating Party shall not have) failed to perform and comply with, in all material respects, any agreement, covenant or condition hereby required to have been performed or complied with by such Party prior to the time of such termination, and such failure shall not have been cured within 30 days following notice of such failure by the terminating Party to the other Party; provided, however, that such 30 day period shall be extended to 90 days if such failure to perform or comply by its nature is susceptible to being cured and the other Party attempting to cure such failure is using and continues to use commercially reasonable efforts to effect a cure;

either Party pursuant to Section 6.10; or

either Party upon notice to the other Party sent after July 1, 2005, if the Closing Date has not occurred by such date; provided, that if on July 1, 2005, (i) the FERC Approval has not been issued and has not been denied or (ii) Seller is proceeding with any repairs pursuant to Section 6.10(b), such notice can only be sent after October 1, 2005.

10.2 Effect_of_Termination. In the event of the termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 10.1:

This Agreement shall become void and have no effect, without any liability to either Party or its Representatives, except as provided in ARTICLE 9;

Buyer shall return to Seller all documents and other materials received from Seller and Seller's Representatives (including all copies of or materials developed from any such documents or other materials) relating hereto or to the Facility, whether obtained before or after the execution of this Agreement (or, if requested by Seller, destroy such documents and materials and certify to Seller their destruction); and

If this Agreement is validly terminated by either Party pursuant to Section 10.1(a), 10.1(c), or 10.1(d), or by Buyer pursuant to Section 10.1(b), then the letter of credit previously delivered by Buyer or the cash deposit previously paid by Buyer in accordance with Section 2.4, including accrued simple interest earned thereon of six percent (6%), shall be surrendered or returned, as the case may be, to Buyer or its designee as notified by ▇▇▇▇▇ to Seller in writing. If this Agreement is validly terminated by Seller pursuant to Section 10.1(b), then (i) (A) Seller shall draw upon the letter of credit previously delivered by Buyer in accordance with Section 2.4, or (B) the cash deposit previously paid by Buyer in accordance with Section 2.4 (including any interest 43 earned by Seller on such deposit during the time period held by Seller) shall be kept by Seller, as the case may be, and (ii) such amounts shall constitute the sole and exclusive remedy for Buyer's breach of any representation or warranty herein or Buyer's failure to perform or comply with any agreement, covenant or condition hereby required to have been performed or complied with by ▇▇▇▇▇ at or prior to the time of such termination. The Parties each agree that the agreements contained in this Section 10.2(c) are an integral part of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and constitute liquidated damages and not a penalty. The Parties each agree and acknowledge that ▇▇▇▇▇▇'s actual damages in the event of such failure to perform or comply by ▇▇▇▇▇ would be extremely difficult or impracticable to ascertain and that such amounts kept by Seller represents the Parties' reasonable estimate of such damages.

This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of, and be binding upon and enforceable against, the Parties and their respective successors and permitted assigns, whether or not so expressed. This Agreement is not assignable by any Party without the prior consent of the other Party, and, except for assignments and transfers by operation of Law, any attempt to assign this Agreement without such consent shall be void and of no effect; provided, however, Buyer may assign this Agreement to an Affiliate, at any time, without the consent of Seller; provided, that in the event of such assignment, Buyer shall provide prompt notice thereof to Seller and shall unconditionally guarantee the obligations of its assignee hereunder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Buyer shall be entitled to assign this Agreement to a limited liability company and a subsidiary of Buyer that will be organized in Delaware at or prior to Closing (the "Permitted Transferee").

At such time, all references in this Agreement to Buyer shall apply mutatis mutandis to the Permitted Transferee and all rights and obligations of Buyer under this Agreement or any of the Ancillary Documents, including under any representations, warranties or covenants contained herein or therein, shall be deemed to be rights and obligations of the Permitted Transferee; provided, however, that in each case, compliance by Buyer with any representation, warranty or other obligations in, or other terms and conditions of, this Agreement or any of the Ancillary Documents, shall be deemed to be compliance by the Permitted Transferee with the same.

11.6 Amendment;_Waivers,_etc.

No amendment, modification or discharge of this Agreement, and no waiver hereunder, shall be valid or binding unless set forth in writing and duly executed by the Party against whom enforcement of the amendment, modification, discharge or waiver is sought. Any such waiver shall constitute a waiver only with respect to the specific matter described in such writing and shall in no way impair the rights of the Party granting such waiver in any other 45 respect or at any other time. The waiver by a Party of (i) a breach of or a default under any provision hereof or (ii) the exercise of any right or privilege hereunder, shall not be construed as a waiver of any other breach or default of a similar nature, or as a general waiver of any such provision or right under this Agreement.

The rights and remedies in this Agreement are cumulative and, except as otherwise expressly provided herein, none is exclusive of any other.

11.9 Severability. If any provision or portion of this Agreement, or applications thereof, is held to be unenforceable or invalid by any court of competent jurisdiction, the Parties shall negotiate an equitable adjustment in the provisions of this Agreement with a view toward effecting the purpose of this Agreement, and the validity and enforceability of the remaining provisions or portions of this Agreement, or applications thereof, shall not be affected thereby.

11.10 Headings. The headings herein have been inserted for convenience of reference only and shall not in any manner affect the construction, meaning or effect of anything herein contained nor govern the rights and liabilities of the Parties.

11.11 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of which together shall constitute one and the same agreement.

11.12 Governing_Law. This Agreement shall in all respects be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Illinois, including with respect to all matters of construction, validity and performance, without giving effect to any choice of law rules thereof which may direct the application of the laws of another jurisdiction.

11.13 Disputes. Any dispute or claim arising under this Agreement that is not resolved in the ordinary course of business shall be referred to a senior executive (President or a Vice President) of each of Buyer and ▇▇▇▇▇▇, who has authority to decide or resolve the matter in dispute, for review and resolution. Such senior executives shall meet and in good faith attempt to resolve the dispute within 30 days. Only if the Parties are unable to resolve a dispute pursuant to this process may either Party enforce its rights at law or in equity subject to the provisions of this Agreement.

11.15 Waiver_of_Punitive_and_Other_Damages_and_Jury_Trial.

EACH PARTY EXPRESSLY WAIVES AND FOREGOES ANY RIGHT TO RECOVER PUNITIVE, EXEMPLARY, LOST PROFITS, CONSEQUENTIAL OR SIMILAR DAMAGES IN ANY ARBITRATION, LAWSUIT, LITIGATION OR PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RESULTING FROM ANY CONTROVERSY OR CLAIM ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO, OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED BY, THIS AGREEMENT.

EACH PARTY ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT ANY CONTROVERSY THAT MAY ARISE UNDER THIS AGREEMENT IS LIKELY TO INVOLVE COMPLICATED AND DIFFICULT ISSUES, AND THEREFORE IT HEREBY IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY LITIGATION DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO, OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED BY, THIS AGREEMENT.

EACH PARTY CERTIFIES AND ACKNOWLEDGES THAT (i) NO REPRESENTATIVE OF THE OTHER PARTY HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PARTY WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE EITHER OF THE FOREGOING WAIVERS, (ii) IT UNDERSTANDS AND HAS CONSIDERED THE IMPLICATIONS OF SUCH WAIVERS, (iii) IT MAKES SUCH WAIVERS VOLUNTARILY, AND (iv) IT HAS BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION 11.15.

Each Party shall not, and shall cause its Representatives not to, disclose Party Confidential Information of the other Party or the Project Confidential Information to any Person other than: (i) to its employees, attorneys or agents and then only to the extent such disclosure, in the good faith determination of the disclosing Party, is necessary for the performance of the duties or responsibilities of such Person in connection herewith; (ii) to existing and potential lenders, investors and assignees, subject to customary confidentiality requirements; (iii) in connection with any action, litigation or proceeding arising out of or in connection with this Agreement or the other documents delivered hereunder or the enforcement hereof and thereof (provided, however, that no Party Confidential Information of the other Party received by a Party hereunder may be used or furnished in connection with any other contemplated litigation, proceeding or any investigation conducted by a Governmental Authority, except as permitted by Section 11.16(b)(iv); or (iv) as may be required by applicable Law, in which case the disclosing Party, to the extent practicable, shall notify promptly the other Party of such disclosure.

Notwithstanding Sections 11.16(a) and 11.16(b), after the Closing, (i) Buyer shall have no obligations with respect to Project Confidential Information; provided, however, that Buyer acknowledges that its confidentiality obligations in respect of Party Confidential Information concerning Seller and its Affiliates (other than the Project Companies) shall continue for three years after the Closing Date, and (ii) Seller's confidentiality obligations under this Section 11.16 with respect to Project Confidential Information and Party Confidential Information concerning Buyer and its Affiliates shall continue for three years after the Closing Date.
