(iv)Nothing in this Section 2.1(e) shall release any Non-Funding Class A Equity Investor from its liability to any of the Class B Equity Investor, the Company or the Project Company or any of their respective assignees for such Non-Funding Class A Equity Investor’s failure to make its Class A Capital Contributions as and when required pursuant to the terms of this Agreement.

2.2Adjustments to Base Case Model; Capital Contributions; Escrow.

(a)Adjustments to Base Case Model. On or before, (i) the Initial Capital Contribution Date, the Class B Equity Investor shall cause the Base Case Model to be rerun to incorporate updates to all changes in fact and Law (including, without limitation, the anticipated total Project costs, allocation of tax basis among Asset classes, the anticipated Hot Commissioning dates of each Turbine and the anticipated Placed in Service dates of all other ITC Eligible Property and any updates to the independent consultant reports) and (ii) the Final Capital Contribution Date, the Class B Equity Investor shall cause the Base Case Model to be re-run to incorporate updates to all changes in fact and Law (including, without limitation, the anticipated total Project costs, allocation of tax basis among Asset classes, the Hot Commissioning dates of each Turbine (and, for Additional Turbines, the anticipated Hot Commissioning dates) and the Placed in Service dates of all other ITC Eligible Property (provided however, if the Class B Equity Investor has not provided the Hot Commissioning Tax Confirmation to the Class A Equity Investors on or prior to December 1, 2023, then the Hot Commissioning dates for each Turbine and anticipated Hot Commissioning dates of each Additional Turbine shall not be incorporated into the rerun Base Case Model, and instead, the re-run Base Case Model will be adjusted to reflect the Placed in Service dates of each Turbine and the anticipated Placed in Service dates for each Additional Turbine) and any updates to the independent consultant reports); provided that (x) the Restricted Pricing Assumptions will be changed only as contemplated in Exhibit B attached hereto and (y) the re-run Base Case Model will not include any update for Project operating performance prior to the Final Capital Contribution Date (the “Adjusted Base Case Model”). For the avoidance of doubt, the Base Case Model shall not be re-run as of any Interim Capital Contribution Date.

(b)Adjustments to Capital Contributions. The amount of the Capital Contributions for such Capital Contribution Date shall be adjusted after such update to the Base Case Model in Section 2.2(a) to ensure that the Pricing Parameters have been satisfied.

(c)Escrow. If fewer than 100% of the Turbines have been Placed in Service as of the Final Capital Contribution Date:

(i)The Adjusted Base Case Model run in connection with the Final Capital Contribution Date shall reflect (A) the actual number of Turbines that have been Placed in Service as of the Final Capital Contribution Date and (B) the actual number of Turbines that have not been Placed in Service but which (x) the Class B Equity Investor reasonably expects to be Placed in Service by no later than the Outside Date and (y) the Independent Engineer has certified are reasonably expected to (I) satisfy the clauses (a) through (e) of the definition of Placed in Service and (II) achieve “Taking Over” (as defined in the TSA) in each case, prior to the Outside Date (such Turbines referred to in this subclause (B), the “Additional Turbines”).

(ii)A portion of the Final Class A Capital Contribution, calculated as the Additional Turbine Escrow Factor multiplied by the number of Additional Turbines, will be paid directly into an escrow account (the “Additional Turbine Escrow Account”) governed by the Escrow Agreement.

(iii)For the avoidance of doubt, and without limiting any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, the Class B Equity Investor and its Affiliates shall use commercially

reasonable efforts to cause such Additional Turbines to be Placed in Service by no later than the Outside Date. If the Class B Equity Investor fails to cause any of the Additional Turbines to be Placed in Service by the Outside Date, the Class B Equity Investor shall deliver an Additional Turbine Release Certificate to each of the Class A Equity Investors and the Escrow Agent and the portion of the Final Class A Capital Contribution placed into the Additional Turbine Escrow Account established pursuant to the Escrow Agreement with respect to such Additional Turbines shall be immediately returned to the Class A Equity Investors, together with interest at a rate per annum (based on a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months) equal to the Target IRR for the period commencing on the Final Capital Contribution Date and ending on the date such funds are returned to each Class A Equity Investor (it being understood that (x) interest shall not accrue on any portion of the Final Class A Capital Contribution placed into the Additional Turbine Escrow Account with respect to incomplete Additional Turbines to the extent such incomplete Additional Turbines become Completed Additional Turbines in accordance with clause (iv) below and (y) any portion of the Final Class A Capital Contribution placed into the Additional Turbine Escrow Account that is returned to any Class A Equity Investor pursuant to this Section 2.2(c)(iii), together with interest as calculated in accordance with this Section 2.2(c)(iii), shall be reflected in the “Target IRR Report” (as defined in the LLC Agreement)), and the Class B Equity Investor shall have no liability to any Class A Equity Investor for any loss of ITC or other tax benefits expected from such Turbines.

(iv)If the Class B Equity Investor causes any of such Additional Turbines to become a Completed Additional Turbine, the Class B Equity Investor shall deliver to the Class A Equity Investors a duly completed Additional Turbine Placed in Service Certificate with respect to such Completed Additional Turbine(s), which shall, in connection with the Type Certificate, include the Independent Engineer’s verification of each Major Component for each applicable Completed Additional Turbine, and, promptly following delivery of such Additional Turbine Placed in Service Certificate, the Class A Equity Investors shall instruct the Escrow Agent in writing to release the portion of the Final Class A Capital Contribution placed into the Additional Turbine Escrow Account that is allocable to such Completed Additional Turbine to be distributed to the Class B Equity Investor. Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent that any of the Major Components used for any of the applicable Completed Additional Turbines were not set forth on the Type Certificate, subject to all other conditions being satisfied or waived, the aforementioned release and distribution of funds from the Additional Turbine Escrow Account for the Completed Additional Turbines shall occur and Section 6.1(c)(i) of the LLC Agreement shall apply.

(v)If the Class B Equity Investor causes any of the Additional Turbines to become a Completed Additional Turbine then, no later than the earlier of (1) the date of the Additional Turbine Placed in Service Certificate with respect to the final Completed Additional Turbine to be Placed in Service and (2) the Outside Date, the Class B Equity Investor shall deliver to the Class A Equity Investors a Completed Additional Turbine Cost Segregation Report.

(d)Specified Tax Law Change; Capital Contributions in Excess of Commitment.

(i)Specified Tax Law Change. If either (A) there is a Change in Tax Law (without regard to clause (2) of the definition thereof) or (B) the Company obtains a favorable private letter ruling reasonably acceptable to the Class A Equity Investors that, in either case, permits the Project Company to claim an ITC on any or all of the export cable and the Project substation and transformer that are located on land (such change in the case of (A) or (B), a “Specified Tax Law Change”), then the Class B Equity Investor shall (x) re-run the Base Case Model to reflect the Specified Tax Law Change and, if applicable, a Specified TLC Election Notice (as defined in the PSA) while maintaining the Pricing Parameters

and (y) obtain an updated Independent Appraisal reflecting updates to the discounted cash flow (DCF) value of the Project solely resulting from the Specified Tax Law Change (with all of the other variables related to the DCF held constant), and the Class A Equity Investors shall have the option (such option, the “Specified TLC Upsize Option”) to increase the Class A Equity Investors’ remaining Capital Contributions to the Company on the subsequent Capital Contribution Dates in an amount equal to the amounts determined by the re-run Base Case Model (the aggregate amount of the incremental payments attributable to the Specified Tax Law Change, the “Specified Capital Contributions”). Each of the Class A Equity Investors shall have a period of no less than 15 days following written notice from the Class B Equity Investor of the occurrence of a Specified Tax Law Change (which such written notice shall include the re-run Base Case Model and updated Independent Appraisal) to provide written notice (the “Specified TLC Upsize Acceptance Notice”) of its agreement to exercise the Specified TLC Upsize Option to the Class B Equity Investor and each other Class A Equity Investor; provided that any obligation of the Class A Equity Investors to make the Specified Capital Contributions shall be conditioned upon delivery of a Specified TLC Upsize Acceptance Notice from each other Class A Equity Investor and satisfaction of the Specified TLC Conditions on or prior to August 1, 2024. Upon delivery of a Specified TLC Upsize Acceptance Notice by all Class A Equity Investors, (x) the Class B Equity Investor shall make a payment of the “Specified Tax Law Change Upsize Fee” (as defined in the Fee Letter) to each Class A Equity Investor in accordance with the Fee Letter and (y) the individual Class A Capital Contribution Cap applicable to each Class A Equity Investor shall be increased by such Class A Equity Investor’s pro rata share of the amount of the Specified Capital Contributions. If any one or more of the Class A Equity Investors does not deliver a Specified TLC Upsize Acceptance Notice prior to the expiration of such 15-day period, then the Class A Equity Investors collectively shall be deemed to have rejected the Specified TLC Upsize Option and the Class B Members shall be permitted to direct the Managing Member to cause the Company to make a Class B ITC Transfer pursuant to Section 9.15(a)(y) of the Company LLC Agreement. Whether or not a Specified Tax Law Change occurs, the Class A Equity Investors will consider in good faith any proposals with respect to claiming the ITC on any or all of the export cable and the Project substation and transformer on land.

(ii)Except to the extent agreed in a Specified TLC Upsize Acceptance Notice as contemplated in Section 2.2(d)(i), in no event shall any Class A Equity Investor be obligated to make Capital Contributions in excess of the individual Class A Capital Contribution Cap applicable to such Class A Equity Investor.

(e)Class B Equity Investor Capital Contributions. On the Initial Capital Contribution Date, subject to the satisfaction or waiver of the conditions set forth in Section 7.1, the Class B Equity Investor shall make a Capital Contribution in cash equal to the Initial Class B Capital Contribution. On each Interim Capital Contribution Date, subject to the satisfaction or waiver of the conditions set forth in Section 7.2, the Class B Equity Investor shall make a Capital Contribution in cash equal to the applicable Interim Class B Capital Contribution; provided that no Interim Class B Capital Contribution will be required if, as of any Interim Capital Contribution Date, the “Cash Portion of the Purchase Price” (as defined in the PSA) has been paid in full (including after taking into account Capital Contributions made by the Class A Equity Investors on such Interim Capital Contribution Date). On the Final Capital Contribution Date, subject to the satisfaction or waiver of the conditions set forth in Section 7.3, the Class B Equity Investor shall make a Capital Contribution in cash in such amount (if any) as is necessary, after taking into account Capital Contributions made by the Class A Equity Investors on such date, to (i) repay the obligations under the Construction Loan Agreement and related Loan Documents in full and discharge any Encumbrances created under the Construction Loan Agreement and the related Loan Documents and otherwise satisfy each of the conditions to the “Effective Time” (as defined in the Construction Loan Payoff Letter), (ii) pay any remaining amount of the “Cash Portion of the

Purchase Price” (as defined in the PSA) (including, for the avoidance of doubt, the amount of the Cash Portion of the Purchase Price allocable to any Additional Turbines), (iii) fund the Completion Reserve Account in an aggregate amount such that the balance on deposit therein (together with any Acceptable Guaranty or Acceptable Letter of Credit standing exclusively to the credit thereof) is equal to the Completion Reserve Amount, (iv) fund the Operating Reserve in an aggregate amount such that the balance on deposit therein is equal to the Operating Reserve Required Amount, (v) to fund other operating accounts of the Company such that the total amount on deposit in operating accounts of the Company (other than the Operating Reserve Account) is at least equal to the Minimum Balance Sheet Cash Amount, and (vi) pay the Transaction Expenses and all other amounts set forth in the Final Capital Contribution Date Flow of Funds Memorandum (the “Final Class B Capital Contribution”). For the avoidance of doubt, the Final Class B Capital Contribution may include any deemed fundings resulting from the conversion of the “Loans” (as defined under the Construction Loan Agreement) into the “Term Loans” (as defined in each of the Term Loan Agreements).

2.3Payment of Capital Contributions. The Capital Contributions provided for herein shall be made in immediately available funds by the Class A Equity Investors and the Class B Equity Investor to the Company with respect to each Capital Contribution according to the wire instructions and Flow of Funds Memorandum provided by the Class B Equity Investor to the applicable Capital Contribution Date in accordance with Section 6.1(u), Section 6.2(e) or Section 6.3(s), as applicable.

(b)For the sole purpose of determining whether a failure, breach or inaccuracy of Section 3.24 (No Casualty) and Section 3.25 (No Condemnation) has occurred (and not for determining whether or

not a condition precedent has been satisfied), the representations and warranties of Class B Equity Investor in Section 3.24 (No Casualty) and Section 3.25 (No Condemnation) in this Agreement shall be deemed to be qualified by materiality, rather than Material Adverse Effect.

8.2Limitations on Liability. The obligations of the Class B Equity Investor under Section 8.1 shall be subject to the following limitations:

(a)Threshold Amount. No claim for indemnification under this Article VIII may be made by any Class A Equity Investor Indemnitee (other than (i) those related to fraud, gross negligence or willful misconduct and (ii) Specified COP Claims) unless and until the aggregate amount of Damages subject to such claim for indemnification, together with all prior claims by such Class A Equity Investor Indemnitee and other members of such Class A Equity Investor Indemnitee group equals or exceeds $1,000,000 in the aggregate (the “Threshold”); provided that, for purposes of clarification, once the Threshold is crossed and any claim for indemnification is agreed or determined, the Class B Equity Investor shall be obligated to pay the Class A Equity Investor Indemnitees from the first Dollar of Damages.

(b)Duration of Representations and Warranties. All representations and warranties made by the Class B Equity Investor shall survive only for eighteen months from the earlier of the Final Capital Contribution Date or the Outside Date, except that representations and warranties (i) under Section 3.1 (Organization and Good Standing), Section 3.2 (Authority; Execution and Delivery; Enforceability), Section 3.5 (Ownership), Section 3.6 (Valid Interests) and Section 3.19 (Brokers) (the “Fundamental Reps”) shall survive indefinitely, (ii) under Section 3.16 (Tax Matters) shall survive until the date that is 60 days after the expiration of the statute of limitations on any IRS audit of the Company tax year for which such item is relevant and (iii) under Section 3.9 (Environmental Matters) shall survive for three years from the earlier of the Final Capital Contribution Date or the Outside Date.

(c)Submission of Claims. Any Claim by a Party for an indemnity or Damages based on a misrepresentation by another Party hereto must be made in writing within the respective survival periods set forth in Section 8.2(b) above. The Class A Equity Investor Indemnitees shall pursue recourse for Class A Equity Investor Claims under the Sponsor Guaranties concurrently with any claims on the Class B Equity Investor hereunder.

(d)No Punitive or Consequential Damages. Except to the extent constituting Third-Party Claims as set forth in Section 8.3, no Party or any of its respective officers, members, shareholders, partners, principals, Affiliates, agents, subcontractors, vendors or employees shall be liable for punitive, consequential or exemplary losses or damages of any nature (including damages for lost profits or revenues or the loss or use of such profits or anticipated revenue, cost of capital, loss of goodwill, damages to reputation or damages for lost opportunities, except to the extent that any of the foregoing constitutes direct damages), or any other special or incidental damages, regardless of whether said Claim is based upon contract, warranty, tort (including negligence and strict liability) or other theory of Law; provided that to the extent ITCs are reduced, recaptured, disallowed or lost as a result of representations and warranties made by the Class B Equity Investor being false in any respect when made or deemed made, or the breach of any covenant, obligation or agreement by the Class B Equity Investor, the value of such reduced, recaptured, disallowed or lost ITCs shall not constitute punitive, consequential or exemplary losses or damages.

(e)Overall Limitation on Liability. The total maximum liability of the Class B Equity Investor to all Class A Equity Investor Indemnitees under this Article VIII with respect to Damages for any Class A Equity Investor Claims (other than Class A Equity Investor Claims by reason of or resulting from any breach or inaccuracy of Fundamental Reps or from fraud, gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Class B Equity Investor)) shall not exceed in the aggregate (i) 100% of the aggregate amount of the Capital Contributions actually contributed by the Class A Equity Investors under this Agreement and the Class A Members under the LLC Agreement, less (ii) amounts previously paid with respect to indemnification obligations under any Transaction Document to the Class A Equity Investor Indemnitees.

(f)Capital Contribution Adjustment. Any indemnity payment or payment of Damages shall be “grossed up” for income taxes that the recipient will have to pay on the payment, taking into account the net present value of Tax benefits (calculated at a discount rate equal to the Target IRR, assuming the Highest Marginal Rate applies to the recipient) reasonably expected to be realized as a result of the payment (assuming that each recipient will have sufficient taxable income for U.S. federal income tax purposes to fully utilize on a current basis any such Tax benefits as a result of payment) and the amount of any tax required to be paid by the recipient on the receipt or accrual of the additional amount required to be added to such payment under this Article VIII, assuming the Highest Marginal Rate applies to the recipient; provided that any indemnity payment or payment of Damages shall be treated as a return of capital, and, accordingly, no “gross-up” shall be payable, if the Class B Equity Investor provides an opinion reasonably acceptable to the Class A Equity Investors at a “should” level or higher from a nationally recognized tax counsel mutually acceptable to both the Class A Equity Investors and the Class B Equity Investor that such indemnity payment or payment of Damages may be treated as a return of capital or basis. If the tax position supported by such tax opinion is subsequently disallowed by the IRS or another relevant taxing authority, the Class B Equity Investor shall promptly pay the gross-up amount described in the preceding sentence to the applicable Class A Equity Investor Indemnitees. This paragraph shall not be construed to require any indemnified party to make available its Tax Returns (or any other information relating to its Taxes that it deems confidential) to the indemnifying party or any other Person.

(g)Excluded Events. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event shall the Class B Equity Investor or any Class B Member be required to indemnify the Class A Equity Investors for any loss of any ITC or other Tax Benefits to the extent such loss is the result of: (i) a change in applicable Law (including any Change in Tax Law); (ii) the failure of any Fixed Tax Assumption to be true, except to the extent such Fixed Tax Assumption is inaccurate as a result of (1) the inaccuracy, failure or breach of any representation or warranty, or breach of any covenant, obligation or agreement, of a Class B Member or any Affiliate of a Class B Member in any Transaction Document or any other Contract between any Affiliate of a Class B Member and a Project Entity (except for any action taken at the direction of, or with the prior written consent of, the Class A Members) or (2) the filing of a federal income tax return that is inconsistent with any such Fixed Tax Assumption, unless such return is a Specified Inconsistent Return; or (iii) the failure, breach or inaccuracy of any representations or warranties made by the applicable Class A Equity Investor or any breach by the Class A Equity Investor of any covenant, obligation or agreement contained in this Agreement or in the LLC Agreement.

(h)Mitigation. A Class A Equity Investor Indemnitee shall mitigate its Damages relating to a Claim as required under applicable Law. Any insurance proceeds or other cash settlement or recovery amounts received by third parties as an offset against such Damages recovered in connection with such mitigation efforts (collectively, “Third-Party Recoveries”) shall reduce the amount of Damages required to be paid; provided that any such Third-Party Recoveries shall not prejudice any claim against the Class B Equity Investor, whether through subrogation or otherwise, by an insurer of a Class A Equity Investor Indemnitee for reimbursement of such amounts.

(i)Subsequent Recoveries. If, at any time subsequent to the Class B Equity Investor having made full payment of a Class A Equity Investor Claim under Section 8.1, the Class A Equity Investor Indemnitee shall, within fifteen days after receipt thereof, repay an amount equal to such Third-Party Recoveries less any out-of-pocket costs and expenses (including reasonable legal fees and expenses) incurred by such Class A Equity Investor Indemnitee in seeking such Third-Party Recoveries up to the aggregate amount of the payments made by the Class B Equity Investor to such Class A Equity Investor Indemnitee. If any portion of Damages to be reimbursed by the Class B Equity Investor have been covered, in whole or in part, by Third-Party Recoveries, the Class A Equity Investor Indemnitee shall promptly give notice thereof to the Class B Equity Investor.

(j)Contribution. Anything to the contrary herein notwithstanding, the Class B Equity Investor shall not have any right to seek contribution from any Project Entity or Shareco with respect to all or any part of its indemnification obligations under Section 8.1.

8.3Procedures for Indemnification With Respect to Third-Party Claims.

(a)Notice of Third-Party Claims. If any legal proceedings shall be instituted or any claim or demand shall be asserted by any third party (each, a “Third-Party Claim”) in respect of which indemnification may be sought by any Class A Equity Investor Indemnitee under this Article VIII, such Class A Equity Investor Indemnitee shall, as soon as practicable after the actual receipt thereof by a responsible officer, cause written notice of such legal proceedings or the assertion of such Third-Party Claim to be forwarded to the Class B Equity Investor, specifying the nature of such legal proceedings or Third-Party Claim and the amount or the estimated amount thereof to the extent then determinable, which estimate shall not be binding upon the Class A Equity Investor Indemnitee; provided that the failure of a Class A Equity Investor Indemnitee to give timely notice shall not affect its rights to indemnification under Section 8.1, except to the extent that the Class B Equity Investor has been actually prejudiced by such failure.

(b)Access to Counsel and Settlement. So long as the Class B Equity Investor has acknowledged in writing to the applicable Class A Equity Investor Indemnitees that it is liable for such Third-Party Claim, the Class B Equity Investor shall be entitled to participate in and unless (i) in the reasonable judgment of the applicable Class A Equity Investor Indemnitees a conflict of interest between it and the Class B Equity Investor exists or could be reasonably likely to exist in respect of such Third-Party Claim, (ii) such Third-Party Claim entails a risk of criminal penalties or civil fines or non-monetary sanctions being imposed on the applicable Class A Equity Investor Indemnitees or (iii) such Third-Party Claim involves any tax contest or dispute involving any Class A Equity Investor or any Affiliate thereof (which shall be governed by Section 9.8 of the LLC Agreement), assume, at its expense, the defense thereof with counsel reasonably satisfactory to such Class A Equity Investor Indemnitees. If the Class B Equity Investor (1) cannot assume the Claim as a result of the conditions set forth in clause (i), (ii) or (iii) above, (2) advises the applicable Class A Equity Investor Indemnitees that it will not assume the defense of such Third-Party Claim or (3) fails, within 30 days of receipt of notice of the Class A Claim or notice of the Third Party Claim, to notify, in writing, the applicable Class A Equity Investor Indemnitees of such assumption (or discontinues its defense at any time after it commences such defense), the applicable Class A Equity Investor Indemnitees will be entitled to assume the defense of such Third-Party Claim with counsel of its own choice, at the expense of the Class B Equity Investor. If the Third-Party Claim is asserted against both the Class B Equity Investor and the applicable Class A Equity Investor Indemnitees and (x) there is a conflict of interest which renders it inappropriate for the same counsel to represent both the Class B Equity Investor and the applicable Class A Equity Investor Indemnitees or (y) such Third-Party Claim could reasonably be expected to result in the imposition of criminal liability, the Class B Equity Investor will be responsible for paying for separate counsel for the applicable Class A Equity Investor Indemnitees; provided, however, that if there is more than one Class A Equity Investor Indemnitee, the Class B Equity Investor will not be responsible for paying for more than one separate firm of attorneys to represent the applicable Class A Equity Investor Indemnitees, regardless of the number of Class A Equity Investor Indemnitees, unless the nature of the Third-Party Claim presents a conflict of interest among the Class A Equity Investor Indemnities, which renders it inappropriate or impossible for the same counsel to represent each of the applicable Class A Indemnitees, in which case, each such Class A Indemnitee shall have the right to retain separate counsel at the expense of Class B Members. If the Class B Equity Investor elects to assume the defense of such Third-Party Claim, (A) no compromise or settlement thereof may be effected by the Class B Equity Investor without the applicable Class A Equity Investor Indemnitees’ prior written consent (which will not be unreasonably withheld) unless the sole relief provided is monetary damages that are paid in full by the Class B Equity Investor and (B) the Class B Equity Investor shall have no liability with respect

to any compromise or settlement thereof effected without its written consent (which will not be unreasonably withheld).

(c)Payment Upon Final Judgment. After final judgment or award shall have been rendered by a court, arbitration board or administrative agency of competent jurisdiction and the expiration of the time in which to appeal therefrom (other than appeals to the United States Supreme Court), or a settlement shall have been consummated, or the applicable Class A Equity Investor Indemnitees and the Class B Equity Investor shall have arrived at a mutually binding agreement with respect to each separate matter indemnified by the Class B Equity Investor, the applicable Class A Equity Investor Indemnitees shall forward to the Class B Equity Investor notice of any sums due and owing by the Class B Equity Investor with respect to such matter, and such amount shall be paid as provided in Section 8.5.

(d)Assistance with Defense of Claims. If any claim is made by a third party against a Class A Equity Investor Indemnitee, the Class A Equity Investor Indemnitee shall use commercially reasonable efforts to make available to the Class B Equity Investor those partners, members, officers and employees whose assistance, testimony or presence is necessary to assist the Class B Equity Investor in evaluating and in defending such claims; provided that any such access shall be conducted in such a manner as not to interfere unreasonably with the operations of the business of the applicable Class A Equity Investor Indemnitees.

8.4Exclusivity. Without limiting any Class A Equity Investor Indemnitee’s rights under the Sponsor Guaranties or the other Transaction Documents or for any equitable remedy, the Parties hereto agree that, in relation to any breach, default or nonperformance of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement made pursuant to this Agreement, the only relief and remedy available to the Class A Equity Investor Indemnitees for the recovery of monetary damages in respect of said breach, default or nonperformance shall be Damages, as limited pursuant to this Article VIII or otherwise hereunder.

8.5Payment of Indemnification Claims. All claims for indemnification (including the payment of Damages) shall be paid by the Class B Equity Investor in immediately available funds in Dollars. Payments for indemnification claims shall be made promptly after any final determination (that is not subject to appeal (other than appeals to the United States Supreme ourt)) of the amount of such claim is made by a court of competent jurisdiction (or by agreement of the Class B Equity Investor and the Class A Equity Investor Indemnitee involved).

8.6No Duplication. The Parties, for themselves, their Affiliates, successors and permitted assigns agree that, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other agreement, any liability for indemnification under this Article VIII shall be without duplication of recovery of amounts payable under this Agreement, the LLC Agreement, the PSA or the Sponsor Guaranties.

ARTICLE IX

TERMINATION; CLASS A WITHDRAWAL

9.1Termination. Without limiting the ability of the Parties to exercise any right or remedy to which any of them is entitled hereunder or under any of the Transaction Documents, the Parties’ obligations under this Agreement may be terminated:

(a)by the mutual written consent of the Class B Equity Investor and the Class A Equity Investors;

(b)by either the Class B Equity Investor or the Class A Equity Investors, if the Final Capital Contribution Date has not been consummated by the close of business on the Outside Date; provided that such Party will not have the right to terminate this Agreement if the applicable conditions to the Final Capital Contribution Date have not been satisfied due to a breach by such Party of its representations, warranties and covenants under this Agreement;

(c)upon the occurrence of the Class A Withdrawal Date;

(d)by the Class B Equity Investor, upon ten days’ prior written notice to the Class A Equity Investors, in the event that one or more Class A Equity Investors are in breach of their respective obligations

to make their respective Initial Class A Capital Contribution and such breach has not been cured (including by a Funding Class A Equity Investor in accordance with Section 2.1(e)(ii) or by a Replacement Class A Equity Investor) within such ten-day period, but only if the Class B Equity Investor is not in breach in any material respect of its covenants or agreements contained in this Agreement and subject to a return of all Capital Contributions made by any Funding Class A Equity Investor; and

(e)by either the Class B Equity Investor or the Class A Equity Investors, upon 30 days’ prior written notice to the other Parties, in the event the Class B Equity Investor or the Company (with respect to a termination by the Class A Equity Investors) or a Class A Equity Investor (with respect to a termination by the Class B Equity Investor) is in breach of a covenant or agreement contained in this Agreement (other than with respect to the making of Capital Contributions as described in clause (d) above), and such breach has not been cured during such 30-day period, or such longer period of time as is reasonably necessary to cure such breach; provided, however, that the Party seeking termination pursuant to this clause (e) must not be in breach in any material respect of its covenants or agreements contained in this Agreement.

9.2Procedure and Effect of Termination; Survival.

(a)The Party desiring to terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 9.1(b), Section 9.1(d) or Section 9.1(e), shall give written notice of such termination to the other Parties in accordance with Section 10.1, specifying the provision hereof pursuant to which such termination is effected.

(b)If this Agreement is terminated pursuant to Section 9.1, then this Agreement shall become void and of no effect with no liability on the part of any Party to the extent of such termination, except that (i) the agreements contained in Article VIII, this Section 9.2(b), Section 9.3, Article X and the obligations of the Class B Equity Investor under the Fee Letter shall each survive the termination, and (ii) no such termination shall relieve any Party of any liability or Damages or affect the rights of the other Party to indemnification pursuant to Article VIII; provided that, with respect to clause (ii), if the Agreement is terminated prior to the Initial Capital Contribution Date, the Class B Equity Investor’s liability for any breach of this Agreement shall be limited to the payment of Transaction Expenses incurred by the Class A Equity Investors pursuant to (and subject to the limitations in) Section 10.2 through the effective date of such termination.

9.3Class A Withdrawal.

(a)If (i) the Initial Capital Contribution Date has occurred, (ii) the Final Capital Contribution Date has not occurred by the Outside Date and (iii) no string of Turbines has been Placed in Service by the Outside Date (a “Class A Withdrawal Trigger Event”), then the Class B Equity Investor shall purchase 100% of the Class A Membership Interests (the “Class A Withdrawal”) upon payment by the Class B Equity Investor in full to the Class A Equity Investors of an amount equal to the aggregate amount of the Capital Contributions actually contributed by the Class A Equity Investors under this Agreement, together with interest on such amount being returned at a rate per annum (based on a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months) equal to the Target IRR for the period commencing on the Initial Capital Contribution Date and ending on the date such funds are returned to each Class A Equity Investor (the “Class A Withdrawal Price”). The Class A Withdrawal will be consummated within 30 days after the Class A Withdrawal Trigger Event (such date on which the Class A Withdrawal is consummated, the “Class A Withdrawal Date”). (b) On the Class A Withdrawal Date, the Class B Equity Investor shall pay the Class A Withdrawal Price to the Class A Equity Investors to purchase the applicable Class A Membership Interests. To the extent the Class B Equity Investor does not pay the full Class A Withdrawal Price on the Class A Withdrawal Date, the Class A Equity Investors may elect to seek payment of any shortfall pursuant to the Sponsor Guaranties. (c) If (i) the Initial Capital Contribution Date has occurred, (ii) the Final Capital Contribution Date has not occurred by the Outside Date, (iii) at least one string of Turbines have been Placed in Service by the Outside Date and (iv) the Lenders have not elected remedies against the Project, the Project Company or the membership interests of the Project Company, then: (x) the Class A Equity Investors and the Class B Equity Investor will

negotiate in good faith to adjust the investment in the Company by the Class A Equity Investors; (y) the allocations and distributions in Articles IV and V of the LLC Agreement will be adjusted and incorporated into the Base Case Model and, if necessary, the Class B Equity Investor shall make a liquidated payment to the Class A Equity Investors, in each case to the extent necessary to reach, but not exceed, the Pricing Parameters (provided that any such adjustments will be mutually agreed upon by the Class A Equity Investors and the Class B Equity Investor); and (z) the LLC Agreement will be amended as necessary to incorporate any such changes agreed to by the Class A Equity Investors and the Class B Equity Investor as described in clause (y) above.

10.2Transaction Expenses.

(a)The Class B Equity Investor shall pay or cause to be paid (including through the application of funds available under the Loan Documents): (i) its own legal and financial advisory fees and expenses and (ii) the cost of the preparation and delivery of all consultant reports prepared in connection with the Transaction by the Independent Engineer, the Insurance Consultant, the Independent Appraiser, the Cost Segregation Consultant, the Wind Consultant, the Environmental Consultant and the Transmission Consultant. The Class B Equity Investor shall pay or cause to be paid (including through the application of funds available under the Loan Documents) the reasonable and documented fees and expenses of (x) Milbank LLP, the Class A Equity Investors’ lead legal counsel, which such fees will be subject to the terms separately agreed between Milbank LLP and the Project Company, (y) Xxxxxx XxXxxxxxx and Fish LLP, the Class A Equity Investors’ Massachusetts counsel, which such fees will be subject to the terms separately agreed between Xxxxxx XxXxxxxxx and Fish LLP and the Project Company and (z) Gorrissen Xxxxxxxxxx Advokatpartnerselskab, the Class A Equity Investors’ Danish counsel, which such fees will be subject to the terms separately agreed between Gorrissen Xxxxxxxxxx Advokatpartnerselskab and the Project Company, but shall not be required to pay any other fees and expenses of the Class A Equity Investors in connection with the achievement of the ECCA Effective Date or the Capital Contribution Dates (collectively, all fees and expenses described in this Section 10.2(a), the “Transaction Expenses”).

(b)The Class A Equity Investors shall directly engage DNV GL to assist with the Class A Equity Investors’ due diligence and will pay DNV GL’s fees and expenses directly, without impacting the Class A Equity Investors’ obligations hereunder or the Project construction schedule. The Class A Equity Investors acknowledge and agree that any energy production report prepared by DNV-GL is for informational purposes only and that the production estimates prepared by the Wind Consultant, shall be used in the Base Case Model for all purposes hereunder.

10.3Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed and delivered (including by facsimile transmission or portable document format (.pdf)) in one or more counterparts, each bearing the signatures of one or more Parties. Each such counterpart shall be considered an original and all of such counterparts shall constitute a single agreement binding all the Parties as if all had signed a single document. Signatures of the Parties transmitted by facsimile or portable document format (.pdf) shall be deemed to be their original signatures for all purposes of this Agreement.

10.4Governing Law and Severability. This Agreement shall be construed, interpreted and enforced in accordance with the internal Laws and decisions of the State of New York applicable to Contracts performed in that state. If any provision of this Agreement shall be contrary to any other applicable Law, at the present time or in the future, such provision shall be deemed null and void, but this shall not affect the legality of the remaining provisions of this Agreement. This Agreement shall be deemed to be modified and amended so as to be in compliance with applicable Law and this Agreement shall then be construed in such a way as will best serve the intention of the Parties at the time of the execution of this Agreement.

10.5Entire Agreement. This Agreement, including any Schedules, Annexes and Exhibits, together with the other Transaction Documents, constitutes the entire agreement among the Parties regarding the terms and conditions of the Transaction, except as amended in writing pursuant to the requirements of this Agreement, and supersedes all prior and contemporaneous agreements, statements, understandings and representations of the Parties.

10.6Effect of Waiver or Consent. A waiver or consent, express or implied, to or of any breach or default by any Person in the performance by that Person of its obligations under this Agreement, or any Transaction Document is not a consent or waiver to or of any other breach or default in the performance by that Person of the same or any other obligations of that Person under this Agreement, or any Transaction Document. Failure on the part of a Person to complain of any act of any Person or to declare any Person in default with respect to its obligations under this Agreement, or any Transaction Document, irrespective of how long that failure continues, does not constitute a waiver by that Person of its rights with respect to that default until the applicable statute of limitations period has run.

10.7Amendments and Modifications. Except as otherwise provided herein and subject to Section 9.15(a)(iv) of the LLC Agreement, this Agreement may be amended or modified from time to time only by a written instrument executed by all Parties hereto.

10.8Disclosure Schedules.

(a)Updates to Disclosure Schedules. After the ECCA Effective Date and immediately prior to each Capital Contribution Date by written notice to the Class A Equity Investors, the Class B Equity Investor shall supplement and amend the Disclosure Schedules (each, an “Update”) as may be required to make the representations of the Class B Equity Investor set forth herein not materially false or incorrect; provided that delivery of any change or addition hereunder shall not be evidence of the materiality or non-materiality of such change or addition. Subject to Section 10.8(b), any matter disclosed in any section of the Disclosure Schedules shall be deemed disclosed for all purposes and all sections of the Disclosure Schedules to the extent it is readily apparent from a reading of the disclosure that such disclosure is applicable to such other sections.

(b)Effect of Updates. For all purposes of this Agreement, including for purposes of determining whether the conditions in Sections 6.1, 6.2 and 6.3 have been fulfilled, the Disclosure Schedules shall be deemed to include all information contained therein on the ECCA Effective Date and shall be deemed to exclude all information contained in any Update; provided that any Updates to the Disclosure Schedules provided pursuant to Section 10.8(a) shall automatically update the representations and warranties for the sole purpose of determining the satisfaction of the conditions precedent set forth in Sections 6.1(e), 6.2(c) and 6.3(e) (but, for the avoidance of doubt, not the underlying representations and warranties in Article III or the conditions precedent in Sections 5.1(g), 6.6(bb), 6.2(i) or 6.3(aa) unless either (x) the Class A Equity Investors have provided their prior written consent or (y) the Update (i) is limited to a matter that would not constitute a “Fundamental Decision” or a “Major Decision” (in each case, as defined in the LLC Agreement), (ii) such Update could not reasonably be expected to affect any assumptions made in the Base Case Model that have not otherwise been updated for such Update on the Initial Capital Contribution Date or the Final Capital Contribution Date, as applicable, and (iii) such Update could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect) except to the extent that the failure of such representations or warranties to be true and correct, or the matter disclosed in such Updates, in either case, has or could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, in which case, such Updates shall be subject to the prior written approval of the Class A Equity Investors, acting reasonably.

10.9Binding Effect. Subject to the restrictions set forth in this Agreement, this Agreement is binding on and inures to the benefit of the Parties hereto and their respective legal representatives, permitted successors and permitted assigns and inures to the benefit of the Class A Equity Investor Indemnitees (solely with respect their right to indemnities in Article VIII, as it may be amended and modified in accordance with this Agreement).

10.10Further Assurances. In connection with this Agreement and the Transaction, each Party shall execute and deliver or cause to be executed and delivered any additional documents, certificates, consents, waivers and instruments and perform any additional acts that may be necessary or appropriate to effectuate and perform the provisions of this Agreement and the Transaction.

10.11Assignability and Parties in Interest.

(a)Other than as permitted pursuant to Section 10.11(b) and (c), this Agreement and the rights, interests or obligations hereunder may not be assigned by any of the Parties hereto without the prior written consent of the other Parties hereto. Except as provided in Section 10.9, nothing in this Agreement shall confer upon any Person not a Party to this Agreement, or the legal representatives of such Person, any rights or remedies of any nature or kind whatsoever under or by reason of this Agreement.

(b)Any assignment by a Class A Equity Investor of this Agreement shall be permitted solely in connection with a Transfer of its Class A Membership Interest pursuant to and in accordance with

Article IX of the LLC Agreement (assuming, for assignments prior to the Initial Capital Contribution Date, that the LLC Agreement is in effect).

(c)Nothing herein shall restrict the Class B Equity Investor from collaterally assigning its interest in this Agreement or the Class B Membership Interests, or restrict the Company from collaterally assigning the membership interests in the Project Company, in each case to the Collateral Agent, pursuant to the Construction Loan Agreement and related Loan Documents, solely for the period ending on the Final Capital Contribution Date.

10.12Jurisdiction; Service of Process; WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. Each Party hereby irrevocably consents to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of the State of New York and of any federal court located in the Southern District of New York, each sitting in New York County, in connection with any suit, action or other proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the Transaction; agrees to waive any objection to venue in the County of New York, State of New York; and agrees that, to the extent permitted by Law, service of process in connection with any such proceeding may be effected by mailing in the same manner provided in Section 10.1 hereof. EACH PARTY IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVES THE RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION, SUIT OR PROCEEDING RELATING TO A DISPUTE HEREUNDER AND ANY COUNTERCLAIMS WITH RESPECT HERETO.

10.13Confidentiality; Public Announcements.

(a)Confidentiality. Each Class A Equity Investor, except to the extent necessary for the exercise of its rights and remedies and the performance of its obligations under this Agreement, shall not itself use or intentionally disclose (and shall not permit the use or disclosure by any of its Affiliates or its advisors, counsel and public accountants (collectively, “Advisors”)) of, directly or indirectly, any of the Material Project Agreements or information furnished thereunder, or this Agreement or information furnished hereunder, and shall use all reasonable efforts to have all such information kept confidential (consistent with the terms of such Material Project Agreements and its own practices) and not used in any way known to such Class A Equity Investor to be detrimental to the Class B Equity Investor or the Project Entities; provided, that (i) such Class A Equity Investor and its Advisors may use, retain and disclose any such information to its special counsel and public accountants or any Governmental Authority, (ii) such Class A Equity Investor and its Advisors may use, retain and disclose any such information that (A) has been publicly disclosed (other than by such Class A Equity Investor or any Affiliate thereof or any of its Advisors in breach of this Section 10.13), (B) has rightfully come into the possession of such Class A Equity Investor or any Affiliate thereof or any of its Advisors other than from another Party hereto or a Person acting on such other Party’s behalf or (C) has been independently developed by such Class A Equity Investor or its Affiliates or Advisors, (iii) to the extent that such Class A Equity Investor or any Affiliate thereof or its Advisors may have received a subpoena or other written demand under color of legal right for such information, such Class A Equity Investor or such Affiliate or Advisor may disclose such information, but such Class A Equity Investor shall first, as soon as practicable upon receipt of such demand, furnish a copy thereof to the other Parties and, if practicable so long as such Class A Equity Investor shall not be in violation of such subpoena or demand or likely to become liable to any penalty or sanctions thereunder, afford the other Parties reasonable opportunity, at any other Party’s cost and expense, to obtain a protective order or other reasonably satisfactory assurance of confidential treatment for the information required to be disclosed, (iv) disclosures to lenders, potential lenders, equity investors, potential equity investors, actual or potential ITC Transferees or other Persons providing direct or indirect financing to any Project Entity, any member in the Company or to their respective representatives and advisors and potential purchasers of direct or indirect equity interests in the Company, if such Persons have agreed to abide by the terms of this Section 10.13 or have otherwise entered into an agreement with restrictions on disclosure substantially similar to the terms of this Section 10.13 (or in the case of advisors, are otherwise bound by professional or legal obligations of confidentiality) and (v) such Class A Equity Investor and its Advisors may disclose any such information, and make such filings, as may be required by this Agreement or the Material Project Agreements. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, each Class A Equity Investor may disclose

information to its Affiliates and other Advisors in accordance with this Agreement if such Persons have agreed to the terms of this Section 10.13.

(b)Each Party agrees that no adequate remedy at law exists for a breach or threatened breach of any of the provisions of this Section 10.13, the continuation of which unremedied will cause the other Party to suffer irreparable harm. Accordingly, each Party agrees that the other Party shall be entitled, in addition to other remedies that may be available to it, to immediate injunctive relief from any breach of any of the provisions of this Section 10.13 and to specific performance of its rights hereunder, as well as to any other remedies available at law or in equity.

(c)Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, the foregoing obligations shall not apply to the tax treatment or tax structure of the Transaction and each Party hereto (and any employee, representative, or agent of any Party) may disclose to any and all Persons, without limitation of any kind, the tax treatment and tax structure of the Transaction and all other materials of any kind (including opinions or other tax analyses) that are provided to any Party hereto to the extent relating to such tax treatment and tax structure. However, any such information relating to such tax treatment and tax structure is required to be kept confidential to the extent necessary to comply with any applicable securities Laws. The preceding sentences are intended to cause the Transaction not to be treated as having been offered under conditions of confidentiality for purposes of Sections 1.6011-4(b)(3) and 301.6111-2(a)(2)(ii) (or any successor provision) of the Treasury Regulations and shall be construed in a manner consistent with such purpose.

(d)Public Announcements. The Parties shall consult with one another before issuing any press releases or otherwise making any public statements with respect to this Agreement and the Transaction and shall not issue any such press release or make any such public statement without the consent of the other Parties, unless such action is required by Law.

10.14Direct Pay. Should legislation relating to “direct pay” (or any similar mechanic in respect of ITCs relating to the Project) be enacted prior to the Initial Capital Contribution Date, the Parties agree to consider in good faith a proposed restructuring of the Transaction to substitute the “direct pay” (or any similar mechanic in respect of ITCs relating to the Project) option for the ITC; provided that no such circumstance shall result in any unilateral right to terminate this Agreement.

10.15No Strict Construction. The Transaction Documents are the result of negotiations among, and have been reviewed by, the Class A Equity Investors, the Class B Equity Investor and their respective counsel. Accordingly, the Transaction Documents shall be deemed to be the product of all Parties thereto, and no ambiguity shall be construed in favor of or against the Class A Equity Investors or the Class B Equity Investor.

10.16Certain Investor Consents. Promptly following any request therefor by the Class B Equity Investor, each of the Class A Equity Investors shall (a) enter into the Investor Consent (ECCA), (b) consent to the entry into the Investor Consent (PSA) by the Company and (c) request that Milbank LLP provide an opinion with respect to enforceability of the Investor Consent (ECCA), in form and substance reasonably acceptable to the Class B Equity Investor.
