(iv) it is in the best interests of the Seller’s estate for the Seller to proceed with a sale of the Acquired Assets within the time constraints set forth in the Sale Motion and the Transaction Agreements. The transactions contemplated by the Transaction Agreements must be approved and consummated promptly in order to maximize the value of the Acquired Assets;

(v) the Seller has marketed the Acquired Assets and conducted the sale process in compliance with the Bid Procedures Order. The marketing and bidding processes implemented by the Seller (including any modifications to the Bid Procedures made in accordance with the Bid Procedures) were fair, proper, complete, and reasonably calculated to result in the best value received for the Acquired Assets;

(vi) the Seller has articulated good, sufficient, and sound business reasons for consummating the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Agreements (and if the sale of the Acquired Assets is to be effectuated outside of a plan or plans of liquidation or reorganization for the Seller, the Seller has articulated good, sufficient and sound business reasons for the consummation of such transactions outside of a plan), and it is a reasonable exercise of the Seller’s business judgment to consummate the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Agreements. Approval of the Transaction Agreements and the consummation of the transactions contemplated thereby is in the best interests of the Seller’s estate, its creditors and other parties in interest;

(vii) the Buyer’s bid for the purchase of the Acquired Assets as memorialized in the Transaction Agreements (A) is fair and reasonable, (B) is the highest or otherwise best offer received for the Acquired Assets, (C) will provide a greater recovery than would be provided by any other practical available alternative, and (D) constitutes reasonably

equivalent value and fair consideration for the Acquired Assets under the Bankruptcy Code and under any applicable Laws;

(viii) the Transaction Agreements were negotiated, proposed and entered into by the Seller and Buyer without collusion, in good faith and from arm’s-length bargaining positions. The Buyer is not an “insider” of the Seller, as that term is defined in section 101(31) of the Bankruptcy Code. Neither the Seller nor the Buyer has engaged in any conduct that would cause or permit the Transaction Agreements to be avoided under section 363(n) of the Bankruptcy Code. Specifically, the Buyer has not acted in a collusive manner with any Person and the Purchase Price was not controlled by any agreement among bidders. The Buyer is a good faith purchaser of the Acquired Assets within the meaning of section 363(m) of the Bankruptcy Code and is therefore entitled to all of the protections afforded thereby;

(ix) except as otherwise set forth in the Transaction Agreements or in any other stipulation or agreement with the Buyer, the transfers of the Acquired Assets to the Buyer do not constitute avoidable transfers under the Bankruptcy Code or under applicable bankruptcy or non-bankruptcy law;

(x) the Seller’s estate is exempt from the application of real estate transfer tax under the provisions of N.Y. Tax Law section 1405(b)(8) and section 1146(a) of the Bankruptcy Code because the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Agreements have been pursued under and in connection with a plan or plans of liquidation or reorganization under the Bankruptcy Code;

(xi) the Seller shall assign or cause to be assigned to the Buyer, and the Buyer shall assume, all of the Assumed Contracts as of the Closing Date pursuant to the Sale Order;

(xii) the Buyer shall be found to have demonstrated and established any adequate assurance of future performance before the Bankruptcy Court with respect to the Assumed Contracts, pursuant to section 365(f)(2) of the Bankruptcy Code;

(xiii) to the extent permitted by Law, the Buyer shall have no liability or responsibility for any Liability or other obligation of the Seller arising under or related to the Acquired Assets other than as expressly set forth in this Agreement, including successor or vicarious liabilities of any kind or character, including any theory of antitrust, environmental, successor or transferee liability, labor Law, de facto merger or substantial continuity;

(xiv) the terms and conditions of the sale of the Acquired Assets to, and the assumption of the Assumed Liabilities by, the Buyer as set forth herein are approved;

(xv) the Seller shall transfer and convey good title to the Acquired Assets, free and clear of Liens other than Permitted Liens;

(xvi) the Buyer is acquiring none of the Excluded Assets;

(xvii) the Buyer shall have no Liability for any Excluded Liability;

(xviii) the Seller is authorized and directed to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and to comply in all respects with the terms of this Agreement; and

(xix) the Sale Order is binding upon any successors to the Seller, including any trustee or trustees in respect of the Seller or the Acquired Assets in the case of any proceeding under chapter 7 of the Bankruptcy Code.

(d) In the event the Sale Order is appealed, (i) the Seller shall use commercially reasonable efforts to defend such appeal at its own cost and expense and (ii) the Buyer will provide such cooperation as is reasonably requested by the Seller to assist the Seller with its defense of such appeal.

(e) After the entry of the Sale Order (if the sale is conducted outside of a plan or plans of liquidation or reorganization for the Seller), the terms of any liquidating or reorganization plan it submits to the Bankruptcy Court, or any other court for confirmation or sanction, shall not conflict with, supersede, abrogate, nullify or restrict the terms of this Agreement, or in any way prevent or interfere with the consummation or performance of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

(f) Except as provided herein, the Parties acknowledge and agree that this Agreement is subject to all of the terms and conditions of the Bid Procedures. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing and subject to the Bid Procedures (including any modification thereto made in accordance with the Bid Procedures), the Buyer expressly acknowledges and agrees that the execution of this Agreement by the Buyer constitutes its binding obligation to purchase the Acquired Assets and assume the Assumed Liabilities and to otherwise consummate the transactions contemplated hereby on the terms and conditions set forth herein.

6.10 Replacement Credit Support Requirements. At Closing, the Buyer shall (a) deliver to the applicable beneficiary or counterparty duly executed replacement or substitute guaranties, letters of credit, bonds, security deposits, and other surety obligations and evidence of financial capacity, in each case acceptable to the relevant beneficiary or counterparty, in replacement of those credit support arrangements set forth in Schedule 6.10 (the “Credit Support Arrangements”), and (b) effect the full and unconditional release as of Closing of the Seller and its Affiliates from all obligations relating to the Credit Support Arrangements and any liabilities related thereto. Promptly after the Effective Date, the Buyer will take all necessary and reasonable steps to replace the Credit Support Arrangements in furtherance of this Section 6.10.

6.11 Insurance. The Buyer acknowledges and agrees that it shall be solely responsible for providing insurance with respect to the Acquired Assets and the Assumed Liabilities for any event or occurrence of any kind whatsoever first occurring after Closing. To the extent that the Seller obtains proceeds under any Insurance Policies with respect to the Facility for any event or occurrence occurring prior to the Closing (which, if such proceeds are material, it shall use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain), the Seller shall promptly pay such proceeds over to Buyer, net of any deductibles paid by the Seller in connection with such proceeds.

6.12 Danskammer Covenant. On condition that the Seller shall have no duty to defend any challenge to or seek to enforce the prohibition contemplated by this Section 6.12, the Seller will cause the inclusion in any definitive sale documentation involving the Seller with respect to Danskammer a covenant by the buyer of Danskammer to include in the deed for Danskammer a restrictive covenant prohibiting, to the extent permitted by law, the new owner of Danskammer from constructing or allowing a Third Party to construct a power generation facility on the Danskammer Site and from repowering or allowing any Third Party to repower Danskammer as it exists as of the Effective Date, and shall provide to the Buyer written evidence of the inclusion of such covenant in such definitive sale documentation. The Seller shall use commercially reasonable efforts to facilitate any discussions requested by the Buyer with the buyer of Danskammer.

6.13 Post-Closing Filings. Promptly following Closing, the Buyer shall make the Notice and other filings required to be made after the Closing as described on Schedule 6.13 (the “Post-Closing Filings”) with respect to the Closing of the transactions contemplated hereby.

6.14 Seller Trademarks and Logos. It is expressly agreed that the Buyer is not purchasing, acquiring or otherwise obtaining any right, title or interest in the name “Dynegy” or any derivative thereof, or any trade names, trademarks, identifying logos or service marks related thereto or employing the word “Dynegy” or any part or variation of any of the foregoing or any confusingly similar trade names, trademarks, logos or service marks (collectively, the “Seller Trademarks and Logos”). Neither the Buyer nor any of its Affiliates shall make any use of the Seller Trademarks and Logos from and after the Closing, including through the use of stationery or letterhead. The Buyer shall, at its own cost and within 30 days after the Closing Date remove or cause to be removed from the Acquired Assets any and all of the Seller Trademarks and Logos.

6.15 Title Insurance and Survey. The Buyer may obtain a new owner’s title insurance commitment for the Owned Real Property issued by a national title insurance company chosen by the Buyer at the Buyer’s sole discretion (the “Title Company”), which commitment shall include a commitment to issue any endorsements which may be reasonably requested by the Buyer, and which commitment shall commit to insuring the Buyer’s interest in the Owned Real Property free and clear of all Liens, other than Permitted Liens. The Seller shall cooperate with and provide reasonable assistance to the Buyer to remove or cause to be removed of record any defects from the title to the Owned Real Property. The Seller shall deliver affidavits at Closing of the Seller’s officers, employees or agents as may be reasonably requested by the title insurer or the Buyer in order to delete the “standard exceptions” provided in any commitment delivered pursuant to this Section 6.15, obtain the endorsements reasonably requested by the Buyer pursuant to this Section 6.15, and affirm the representation set forth in Section 4.14 (Financial Advisors; Brokers), but only to the extent that such affidavits and other instruments do not impose personal liability upon any natural person who is the affiant and which affidavits shall include the statement, if true, that there are no claims of parties in possession. The survey and the title commitment, any policy of title insurance, and the endorsements shall be at the Buyer’s sole cost and expense.

6.16 Replacement of Shared Contracts. To the extent any Shared Contract constitutes an Assumed Contract, the Buyer is solely responsible for executing any replacement of such

Shared Contract. If requested, and at the Buyer’s sole expense, the Seller shall use commercially reasonable efforts to assist the Buyer in procuring those material replacement Shared Contracts deemed by the Seller to be essential to the operation of the Facility.

6.17 Back-Up Bidder. The Seller may execute an agreement for the sale of the Acquired Assets with a Back-Up Bidder as contemplated by the Bid Procedures, which execution and any related action shall not be considered a breach of this Agreement, notwithstanding any provision herein to the contrary.

The obligation of the Buyer to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement is subject to the satisfaction (or waiver by the Buyer in the Buyer’s sole discretion) at or prior to the Closing Date of each of the following conditions:

(a) Except as set forth in Section 7.1(b), each of the representations and warranties of the Seller contained herein shall be true and correct in all material respects on and as of the Effective Date and on and as of the Closing Date, with the same force and effect as though such representations and warranties had been made on and as of such date, except to the extent that any such representation or warranty is expressly made as of a specified date, in which case the accuracy of such representation or warranty shall be determined as of such specified date.

ARTICLE 8
TERMINATION

8.1 Termination of Agreement. This Agreement may be terminated and the transactions contemplated hereby abandoned at any time prior to the Closing:

(a) by written agreement of the Seller and the Buyer;

(b) by the Buyer or the Seller if the Bankruptcy Court does not enter a Sale Order on or before the date that is 45 days from the conclusion of the Auction;

(c) by the Buyer or the Seller if the Closing does not occur on or before the date that is 120 days from entry of the Sale Order unless Closing has not occurred due to a pending regulatory approval, in which instance the Buyer or the Seller may only terminate pursuant to this Section 8.1(c) on or before the date that is 180 days from entry of the Sale Order;

(d) by the Buyer or the Seller if, as a result of an Order of the Bankruptcy Court, the Chapter 11 Cases are dismissed or converted to chapter 7 cases and a chapter 7 trustee is appointed with respect to the Seller;

(e) automatically upon the entry by the Bankruptcy Court of an Order approving a sale of any material portion of the Acquired Assets to a party other than the Buyer (other than approving any other Person as a Back-Up Bidder); or

(f) by the Buyer or the Seller if there shall be any Law that makes consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby illegal or otherwise prohibited, or if any Order permanently restraining, prohibiting or enjoining the Buyer or the Seller from consummating the transactions contemplated hereby is entered and such Order shall become final.

8.2 Consequences of Termination. In the event of any termination of this Agreement by any Party pursuant to Section 8.1, Notice thereof shall be given by the terminating Party to the other Party, specifying the provision hereof pursuant to which such termination is made. Upon any termination pursuant to Section 8.1, this Agreement shall terminate and become void and of no further force and effect (other than the last sentence of Section 4.14 (Financial Advisors; Brokers), the last sentence of Section 5.9 (Financial Advisors; Brokers), the last two sentences of Section 6.2 (Access), and all of Section 6.3 (Public Announcements), Section 6.7 (Confidentiality), Section 8.2 (Consequences of Termination), Section 8.3 (Deposit) and Article 9 (Miscellaneous) and, to the extent applicable in respect of such Sections and Article, Article 1), and the transactions contemplated hereby shall be abandoned without further action of the Parties, except that, subject to Section 8.3, such termination shall not relieve any Party of any Liability for any prior breach of this Agreement.

8.3 Deposit.

(a) Except as set forth in Section 8.3(b), if this Agreement is terminated pursuant to Section 8.1 the Deposit shall be returned to the Buyer within five Business Days of such termination by wire transfer in immediately available funds to an account specified by Buyer.

(b) In the event that (i) all of the conditions to Closing set forth in Section 7.1 are satisfied (except to the extent not satisfied due to the material breach of the Buyer), (ii) the Sale is not consummated due to a material breach of this Agreement by the Buyer and (iii) this Agreement is terminated in accordance with Section 8.1 (a “Closing Failure”), then the Seller shall be entitled to retain the Deposit by Notice to the Buyer as liquidated damages (the “Termination Fee”), it being acknowledged by the Parties that actual damages in circumstances where the Termination Fee is payable are difficult to predict and such amount is a fair and reasonable approximation of the damages that would be suffered by the Seller in such circumstances. If the Seller delivers Notice to the Buyer that it is retaining the Deposit as a Termination Fee, then in no event shall the Seller or its Affiliates seek to recover any other money damages or seek any other remedy, including under Section 9.10, from the Buyer or its Affiliates with respect to a Closing Failure, regardless of whether such monetary damages or other remedies are based on a claim in law or equity, and all such claims are hereby waived. For

the avoidance of doubt, the foregoing shall not prevent the Seller from seeking any other remedy, including under Section 9.10, prior to delivering such Notice.

ARTICLE 9
MISCELLANEOUS

9.1 Expenses. Except as set forth in this Agreement and whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby are consummated, each Party shall bear all costs and expenses incurred or to be incurred by such Party in connection with this Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby.

9.2 Assignment. Neither this Agreement nor any of the rights or obligations hereunder may be assigned by the Seller without the prior written consent of the Buyer, or by the Buyer without the prior written consent of the Seller, provided that the Buyer shall have the right to assign this Agreement or any of its rights or obligations hereunder to CCI Roseton LLC or any other direct or indirect wholly owned subsidiaries (provided that no such assignment shall relieve the Buyer of any of its obligations under this Agreement). Subject to the foregoing, this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Parties and their respective successors and permitted assigns, including any liquidating trustee, responsible Person or similar representative for the Seller or the Seller’s estate appointed in connection with the Chapter 11 Cases.

9.3 Parties in Interest. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure solely to the benefit of the Parties, and nothing in this Agreement, express or implied, is intended to or shall confer upon any other Person any rights, benefits or remedies of any nature whatsoever under or by reason of this Agreement, except as expressly set forth herein, including, for the avoidance of doubt, the intended third-party beneficiaries contemplated by Section 6.6 and Section 9.15 and DNE, who is an intended third party beneficiary of this Agreement.

9.4 Notices. All notices, demands, requests, consents, approvals or other communications (collectively, “Notices”) required or permitted to be given hereunder or that are given with respect to this Agreement shall be in writing and shall be deemed given on the date personally served, delivered by a nationally recognized overnight delivery service with charges prepaid, or transmitted by hand delivery, or facsimile with confirmation of receipt, addressed as set forth below, or to such other address as such Party shall have specified most recently by Notice, except that if delivered or transmitted on a day other than a Business Day or after 5:00 p.m., New York time, Notice shall be deemed given on the next Business Day.

Rejection of or refusal to accept any Notice, or the inability to deliver any Notice because of changed address of which no Notice was given, shall be deemed to be receipt of the Notice as of the date of such rejection, refusal or inability to deliver.

9.5 Choice of Law. This Agreement shall be construed and interpreted, and the rights of the Parties shall be determined, in accordance with the Laws of the State of New York, without giving effect to any provision thereof that would require the application of the substantive Laws of any other jurisdiction, except to the extent that such Laws are superseded by the Bankruptcy Code.

9.6 Entire Agreement; Amendments and Waivers. The Transaction Agreements, the Confidentiality Agreement and all agreements entered into pursuant hereto and all certificates and instruments delivered pursuant hereto and thereto constitute the entire agreement among the Parties pertaining to the subject matter hereof and supersede all prior agreements, understandings, negotiations and discussions, whether oral or written, of the Parties. This Agreement may be amended, supplemented or modified, and any of the terms, covenants, representations, warranties or conditions may be waived, only by a written instrument executed by the Seller and the Buyer, or in the case of a waiver, by the Party waiving compliance. No waiver of any of the provisions of this Agreement shall be deemed or shall constitute a waiver of any other provision hereof (whether or not similar), and no such waiver shall constitute a continuing waiver unless otherwise expressly provided.

9.7 Schedules; Supplementation and Amendment of Schedules. The Seller may, at its option, include in the Schedules items that are not material in order to avoid any misunderstanding, and such inclusion, or any references to dollar amounts, shall not be deemed to be an acknowledgement 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. Information disclosed in the Schedules will be deemed adequately disclosed as an exception with respect to other covenants, agreements, representations or warranties to the extent that the relevance of such item to such other covenants, agreements, representations or warranties is reasonably apparent on its face, notwithstanding the presence or absence of an appropriate section of the Schedules with respect to such other covenants, agreements, representations or warranties or a cross-reference thereto. From time to time prior to the Closing, the Seller has the right to supplement or amend the Schedules with respect to any matter hereafter arising or discovered after the Effective Date but such supplement or amendment shall have no effect on the satisfaction of the condition to Closing set forth in Section 7.1.

9.8 Counterparts; Facsimile and Electronic Signatures. This Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, and all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument. Counterparts to this Agreement may be delivered via facsimile or electronic mail. In proving this Agreement, it shall not be necessary to produce or account for more than one such counterpart signed by the Party against whom enforcement is sought.

9.9 Severability. The invalidity or unenforceability of any provision of this Agreement shall not affect the validity or enforceability of any other provisions of this Agreement. In the event that any of the provisions of this Agreement shall be held by a court or other tribunal of competent jurisdiction to be illegal, invalid or unenforceable, such provisions shall be limited or eliminated only to the minimum extent necessary so that this Agreement shall otherwise remain in full force and effect.

9.10 Exclusive Jurisdiction and Specific Performance.

(a) Without limiting any Party’s right to appeal any Order of the Bankruptcy Court, (i) the Bankruptcy Court shall retain exclusive jurisdiction to enforce the terms of this Agreement and to decide any claims or disputes that may arise or result from, or be connected with, this Agreement, any breach or default hereunder, or the transactions contemplated hereby, and (ii) any and all Proceedings related to the foregoing shall be filed and maintained only in the Bankruptcy Court, and the Parties hereby consent to and submit to the jurisdiction and venue of the Bankruptcy Court and shall receive Notices therefrom at such locations as indicated in Section 9.4.

(b) The Parties acknowledge that irreparable damage would occur in the event that any of the provisions of this Agreement were not performed by any of the Parties in accordance with the specific terms contained herein or were otherwise breached by any of the Parties, and each Party shall be entitled to an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches or termination of this Agreement by any other Party or to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this Agreement. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if the Seller is entitled to retain the Deposit, then the Seller may retain the Deposit in addition to seeking specific performance of the terms and provisions hereof or any other remedy in law or equity to which the Seller is entitled.

9.11 WAIVER OF RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY. THE PARTIES HEREBY WAIVE TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW ANY RIGHT THEY MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY PROCEEDING DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY (WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT OR ANY OTHER THEORY).

9.12 NO CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES. IN NO EVENT SHALL ANY PARTY BE LIABLE UNDER OR IN CONNECTION WITH THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED BY THIS AGREEMENT FOR ANY PUNITIVE, EXEMPLARY, INDIRECT, CONSEQUENTIAL, SPECIAL OR INCIDENTAL DAMAGES, LOST PROFITS OR COSTS OF ANY OTHER PARTY OR ITS AFFILIATES, WHETHER BASED IN CONTRACT, TORT (INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE OR STRICT LIABILITY), WARRANTY OR OTHERWISE, AND ALL SUCH PUNITIVE, EXEMPLARY, INDIRECT, CONSEQUENTIAL, SPECIAL AND INCIDENTAL DAMAGES, LOST PROFITS AND COSTS ARE HEREBY UNCONDITIONALLY AND IRREVOCABLY WAIVED, RELEASED AND DISCHARGED.

9.13 Survival. Each and every representation, warranty, covenant, and agreement contained in this Agreement or in any instrument delivered pursuant to this Agreement (other than the covenants contained in this Agreement that by their terms are to be performed (in whole or in part) by the Parties following the Closing) shall expire and be of no further force and effect as of the Closing and no Party shall thereafter have any liability whatsoever with respect thereto.

9.14 Computation of Time. In computing any period of time prescribed by or allowed with respect to any provision of this Agreement that relates to the Seller or the Chapter 11 Cases, the provisions of Bankruptcy Rule 9006(a) shall apply.

9.15 Non-Recourse. All claims or causes of action (whether in contract or in tort, in law or in equity) that may be based upon, arise out of or relate to this Agreement or any other document, certificate or instrument delivered pursuant hereto, or the negotiation, execution, performance or non-performance of this Agreement or any other document, certificate or instrument delivered pursuant hereto (including any representation or warranty made in or in connection with this Agreement or any other document, certificate or instrument delivered pursuant hereto or as an inducement to enter into this Agreement and the other documents delivered pursuant hereto) may be made only against the Person or Persons that are expressly identified as parties hereto or thereto. In no event shall any Party, or party to the other documents delivered pursuant hereto, have any shared or vicarious liability for the actions or omissions of any other Person. No Person who is not a named party to this Agreement or the other documents delivered pursuant hereto, including any past, present or future director, manager, officer, employee, incorporator, member, partner, equity holder, Affiliate, agent, attorney or representative of any Party (“Non-Party Affiliates”), shall have any liability (whether in contract or in tort, in law or in equity, or based upon any theory that seeks to impose liability of an entity party against its owners or affiliates) for any obligations or liabilities arising under, in connection with or related to this Agreement or any other document, certificate, information, due diligence materials or instrument delivered in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby or pursuant hereto or for any claim based on, in respect of, or by reason of this Agreement or any other document, certificate, information, due diligence materials or instrument delivered in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby or pursuant hereto or its negotiation or execution; and each party hereto or thereto waives and releases all such liabilities, claims and obligations against any such Non-Party Affiliates.
