(c) Each determination by the Lender of an interest rate or fee hereunder shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error.

Section 3.07 Optional Prepayment.

(a) Optional Prepayment Generally. The Borrower may, after having given the Lender at least [***] Business Days’ prior irrevocable notice, prepay, in whole or in part, any or all of the Loans.

[***] Confidential Treatment Requested

(b) Any optional prepayment under this Section 3.07 shall be applied to the remaining principal balance of such Loans in inverse order of maturity.

(C)

as required under Section 3.12(b)(iv) (System Severance – Severance Amount Payment).

(b) Restricted Payments Account. If funds have been on deposit in the Restricted Payments Account for more than four (4) consecutive Quarterly Periods, then the Borrower shall be required to prepay the Loans on any Quarterly Payment Date using all funds then on deposit in the Restricted Payments Account; provided, that if the sole reason that funds have remained on deposit in the Restricted Payments Account is that the Historical Debt Service Coverage Test and the Prospective Debt Service Coverage Test have not been satisfied, then funds on deposit in the Restricted Payments Account shall be applied as a mandatory prepayment of the Loans only until the Prospective Debt Service Coverage Ratio equals [***].

[***] Confidential Treatment Requested

(c) Accompanied by Interest. All prepayments under this Section 3.08 shall be accompanied by accrued interest on the principal amount being prepaid to but excluding the date of payment and by any fees, costs and expenses required to be paid under Section 3.10 (Fees), Article IV (LIBO Rate and Tax Provisions) and Section 9.06 (Costs and Expenses) (other than unmatured Obligations with respect to which no claim has been made by the Lender), but otherwise without any premium or penalty.

(d) Application of Payments. Amounts of principal repaid under clause (a) of this Section 3.08 shall be applied to the remaining principal balance of such Loans in inverse order of maturity. Amounts of principal repaid under clause (b) of this Section 3.08 shall be applied pro rata to the principal amount of all Loans then outstanding.

(e) No Reborrowing. Amounts prepaid pursuant to this Section 3.08 may not be reborrowed.

Section 3.09 Time and Place of Payments.

(a) The Borrower shall make each payment (including any payment of principal of or interest on any Loan or any Fees or other Obligations) hereunder and under any other Financing Document without setoff, deduction or counterclaim not later than noon, California time on the date when due, in immediately available funds to the Lender pursuant to the wire instruction listed on Schedule 3.09(a), or at such other office or account as may from time to time be specified by the Lender to the Borrower. Funds received after noon, California time shall be deemed to have been received by the Lender on the next succeeding Business Day.

(b) Whenever any payment (including any payment of principal of or interest on any Loan or any Fees or other Obligations) hereunder or under any other Financing Document shall become due, or otherwise would occur, on a day that is not a Business Day, such payment shall (except as otherwise required by the proviso to the definition of “Interest Period” with respect to Loans) be made on the immediately succeeding Business Day, and such increase of time shall in such case be included in the computation of interest or Fees, if applicable.

Section 3.10 Fees.

(a)

The Borrower agrees to pay to the Lender:

(i)

On the Closing Date, a facility fee equal to [***] of the Loan Commitment less [***];

(ii)

On the Effective Date, [***], which is the outstanding amount due to Lender pursuant to clause (i) above;

(iii)

Beginning on the first anniversary of the Closing Date, on each Quarterly Payment Date, in advance, a maintenance fee equal to [***] per quarter; and

[***] Confidential Treatment Requested

(iv)

On the Date Certain, an unused commitment fee in an amount equal to [***] years of interest on the unused portion of the Loan Commitment as of the Date Certain (prior to giving effect to the automatic termination of the Loan Commitment on such date), with interest computed based on the rate in effect as of the Date Certain; provided, that the Borrower may borrow Loans to pay such fee so long as after giving effect to such Loan, the Prospective Debt Service Coverage Ratio is at least [***].

(b) The Borrower agrees to pay to the Lender additional fees in the amounts and at the times from time to time agreed in writing by the Borrower and the Lender.

(c) All Fees shall be paid on the dates due, in immediately available funds. Once paid, none of the Fees shall be refundable under any circumstances.

Section 3.11 Termination of Rate Contracts in Connection with Any Prepayment. The Borrower shall, in connection with any prepayment of Loans pursuant to Section 3.07 (Optional Prepayment) or Section 3.08 (Mandatory Prepayment), terminate an aggregate notional amount under the Rate Contracts with respect to interest rates equal to the amount (if any) by which the aggregate notional amount under such Rate Contracts would exceed the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Loans, immediately after giving effect to such prepayment; and in each case, such termination shall be made within [***] Business Days of the date of such prepayment and shall be accompanied by any additional amounts required to be paid under Article IV (LIBO Rate and Tax Provisions). For purposes of clarity, until the expiry of such [***] Business Day period following such prepayments, the existence of Rate Contracts for notional amounts in excess of the aggregate principal amount of Loans due to the relevant prepayments shall not constitute a breach or Event of Default hereunder.

Section 3.12 System Severance.

(a) General. At any time, the Borrower may prepay all of the applicable Loans in respect of any System and cause the applicable System to be released from the Collateral requirements hereunder (a “System Severance”) by satisfying the requirements of Section 3.12(b) (System Severance – Process and Requirements).

(b) Process and Requirements. A System Severance, to the extent permitted under this Section 3.12 and Section 8.05 (Special Cures – System Severance and Prepayment), may be accomplished through the following process:

(i)

System Severance Notice. The Borrower shall give the Lender an irrevocable notice of its intent to carry out a System Severance (a “Severance Notice”) at least [***] Business Days prior to the proposed date for such severance, which such Severance Notice shall indicate the System(s) to be so severed and the proposed date for such severance and shall be accompanied by the updated Financial Models contemplated in part (ii) below.

(ii)

Updated Models. With each Severance Notice delivered under Section 3.12(b)(i), the Borrower shall deliver to the Lender proposed revised Financial Models for the Portfolio, reflecting the

[***] Confidential Treatment Requested

removal of the System(s) to be severed. Such revised Financial Models will employ the methodology used in the Financial Models delivered by Borrower on the Closing Date. Any change in assumptions shall be specifically identified and any material change in assumptions must be reasonably acceptable to Lender, in consultation with the Independent Engineer (if applicable).

(iii)

Debt Sizing. The permitted size of all Loans shall then be reviewed by the Lender and, as necessary, reduced by mandatory prepayment, so that, under the updated Financial Models prepared in accordance with Section 3.12(b)(ii) above, the Debt Sizing Test shall be satisfied. The excess, if any, of the aggregate principal amount of Loans then outstanding over the adjusted permitted aggregate principal amount of Loans, determined based on the Debt Sizing Test, after giving effect to any Project Document Termination Payment or Insurance Proceeds, as applicable, received by the Borrower in connection with the severance that will be applied as a prepayment of Loans, shall constitute the “Additional Required Balance” required at such time.

(iv)

Severance Amount Payment. On the date of the relevant System Severance, the Borrower will pay, as a mandatory prepayment of Loans, an amount (the “Severance Amount”) comprised of the Additional Required Balance, if any, to the Lender, with the Additional Required Balance applied pro rata as a prepayment of principal on the Loans. In addition, any payment of a Severance Amount prior to the third anniversary of the Closing Date shall be accompanied by a fee in an amount equal to the aggregate amount of interest that would have accrued on such Severance Amount from the date of the prepayment through the third anniversary of the Closing Date, based on the rate in effect as of the date of the prepayment.

(c) Discharge. Upon the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 3.12(b) for a System Severance, the “System Discharge Date” with respect to the relevant System shall be deemed to have occurred. Promptly following, and with effect from, such System Discharge Date, (i) the readily identifiable assets of the relevant System shall be released from the Lien in favor of the Lender under the Security Agreement and related Security Documents, and (ii) the relevant System shall become a “Former System” for purposes of this Agreement and the other Financing Documents; provided, that such release shall not extend to the Account Collateral or any funds on deposit in them and shall not affect any portion of the Collateral other than the identifiable assets of the Former System.

ARTICLE IV

LIBO RATE AND TAX PROVISIONS

Section 4.01 LIBO Rate Indemnity. If and so long as the interest rate for the Loans shall be determined on the basis of the LIBO Rate, the Borrower agrees to indemnify the Lender for, and to hold the Lender harmless from, any loss or expense (excluding loss of any anticipated profits) that the Lender may sustain or incur as a consequence of (a) failure by the Borrower to make any prepayment after giving a notice thereof in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement or (b) the making of a prepayment of the Loans on a day that is not the last day of an Interest Period. Such indemnification shall be based upon the excess, if any, of (i) the amount of interest that would have accrued on the amount not prepaid (in the case of (a) above), or actually prepaid (in the case of (b) above) for the interim period from the date of such failure or prepayment until the end of the then-current Interest Period, in each case computed at the applicable LIBO Rate for such Interest Period over (ii) the amount of interest (as reasonably determined by the Lender) that would have accrued on such amount during such interim period based upon a determination of the LIBO Rate that would commence and end in accordance with such interim period. A certificate as to any amounts payable pursuant to this Section submitted by the Lender in reasonable detail shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error. The parties understand and agree that the provisions of this Section 4.01 shall apply irrespective of whether the Lender has funded the Loans under this Agreement from deposits in the London interbank market or from other funding sources.

Section 4.02 Additional Requirements/Provisions.

(a) The Borrower shall pay to the Lender, upon demand by the Lender, from time to time such amounts as the Lender may reasonably determine to be necessary to compensate it for any increased costs incurred by the Lender that the Lender determines are attributable to its making or maintaining of any amount receivable by the Lender hereunder in respect of the Loans relating thereto, in each case resulting from any change after the date hereof in applicable law that:

(i)

changes the basis of taxation of any amounts payable to the Lender under this Agreement in respect of the Loans (other than changes which affect Excluded Taxes or in Non-Excluded Taxes or Other Taxes covered by Section 4.03); or

(ii)

imposes or modifies any reserve, special deposit or similar requirements (other than the Reserve Requirement) relating to any extensions of credit or other assets of, or any deposits with or other liabilities of the Lender; or

(iii)

imposes any other material condition affecting this Agreement (or any of such extensions of credit or liabilities).

(b) If the Lender shall determine that the adoption or implementation of any applicable law, rule, regulation or treaty regarding capital adequacy, or any change therein, or any change in the interpretation or administration thereof by any Governmental Authority,

central bank or comparable agency charged with the interpretation or administration thereof, or compliance by the Lender (or its applicable lending office) with any directive regarding capital adequacy of any such authority, central bank or comparable agency, in each case made after the date hereof, has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on capital of the Lender or any entity controlling the Lender as a consequence of its obligations hereunder to a level below that which the Lender (or such controlling entity) could have achieved but for such adoption, change or compliance (taking into consideration its policies with respect to capital adequacy) by an amount deemed by the Lender to be material, then from time to time, the Borrower shall pay to the Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate the Lender for such reduction.

(c) Sections 4.02(a) and (b) shall not apply to the extent (i) that the Lender shall not make demand for compensation for such increased costs or reduction from borrowers generally who are party to similar obligations as set forth in this Section 4.02 or (ii) such increased costs or reduction arise from failure of the Lender to comply with laws, regulations or minimum standards provided in such laws or regulations applicable to the Lender or (iii) are the result of the Lender’s lending or business activities which expose the Lender to more risk than that incurred by other comparable financial institutions.

(d) The Lender will notify the Borrower within [***] months of any event occurring after the date of this Agreement which will entitle the Lender to compensation pursuant to this Section 4.02 or as promptly thereafter as practicable after it obtains knowledge thereof and determines to request such compensation. Concurrent with each request by the Lender for compensation under this Section, the Lender will furnish the Borrower with a statement setting forth the basis, computation and amount of such request by the Lender for compensation. The Borrower shall pay to the Lender such amount or amounts as may be requested under and in compliance with this Section 4.02 within [***] days after such request. Failure or delay on the part of the Lender to provide notice under this Section 4.02(d) or to request compensation shall not constitute a waiver of the Lender’s right to demand such compensation; provided, that the Borrower shall not be required to compensate the Lender for any increased costs incurred or reductions suffered more than [***] months prior to the date that the Lender requests compensation therefor (except that, if the change giving rise to such increased costs or reductions is retroactive, then the [***]-month period referred to above shall be extended to include such period of retroactive effect).

(e) If at any time the Lender, in its reasonable discretion, determines that adequate and reasonable means do not exist to determine the LIBO Rate at the commencement of any Interest Period, then the Lender shall promptly give notice thereof to the Borrower. The Lender and the Borrower shall promptly enter into negotiations to determine an alternative reference rate reasonably reflecting the cost of funds of the Lender to use for such Interest Period in lieu of the LIBO Rate; provided, that (x) unless and until the parties shall agree to such alternative reference rate, all references herein to LIBO Rate shall, at the commencement of each Interest Period from and after the date of such notice by the Lender under this Section 4.02(e), instead be deemed to be references to the Prime Base Rate, determined as of the first day of such Interest Period (provided, that, to the extent that the Prime Base Rate is used in computing an Interest Rate, the applicable margin shall be adjusted so that the sum of the Prime Base Rate plus the applicable margin approximates the Interest Rate that was in effect during the preceding

[***] Confidential Treatment Requested

Interest Period in which the LIBO Rate could be determined) and (y) if, following such notice from the Lender, reasonable means to determine the LIBO Rate shall once again exist, the Lender shall promptly so notify the Borrower and this Section 4.02(e) shall cease to apply at the end of the then-applicable Interest Period.

(f) If it shall become unlawful for the Lender to continue to fund or maintain the Loans, or to perform its obligations hereunder, upon demand by the Lender (subject to Section 4.02(g) below), the Borrower shall prepay the Loans owing to the Lender in full with accrued interest thereon and all other amounts payable by the Borrower to the Lender hereunder on or prior to the date on which the Lender shall be required to be prepaid in accordance with such legal requirement.

(g) If the Borrower is required to make any payments under this Section 4.02 or Section 4.03 hereof, or if notice is provided by the Lender under Section 4.02(d), then, at the request of the Borrower, the Lender shall use reasonable efforts to designate or assign to an Affiliate or alternative branch or lending office for funding or booking its loans and performing it obligations hereunder, or engage an alternative eligible lender acceptable to the Borrower, if, in the judgment of the Lender, such designation or assignment: (i) would eliminate or reduce amounts payable pursuant to this Section 4.02 or Section 4.03 hereof in the future, or eliminate the need for the notice pursuant to Section 4.02(d); and (ii) in each case, would not otherwise (in the opinion of the Lender) be disadvantageous to it. The Borrower hereby agrees to pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by the Lender in connection with any such designation or assignment.

Section 4.03 Net of Tax, Etc.

(a) All payments made by the Borrower with respect to any obligation under this Agreement shall be made free and clear of, and without deduction or withholding for or on account of, any present or future income, stamp or other Taxes, now or hereafter imposed, levied, collected, withheld or assessed by any Governmental Authority, excluding Excluded Taxes. If any such non-excluded taxes, levies, imposts, duties, charges, fees, deductions or withholdings (“Non-Excluded Taxes”) or Other Taxes are required to be withheld from any amounts payable to the Lender hereunder, the amounts so payable to the Lender shall be increased to the extent necessary to yield to the Lender (after payment of all Non-Excluded Taxes and Other Taxes) interest or any such other amounts payable hereunder at the rates or in the amounts specified in this Agreement; provided, that the Borrower shall not be required to increase any such amounts payable to the Lender with respect to any Non-Excluded Taxes (i) that are attributable to the Lender’s failure to comply with the requirements of Section 4.03(d) or (e) or failure to comply with laws, regulations or minimum standards provided in other laws or regulations applicable to the Lender or (ii) that are United States withholding Taxes imposed on amounts payable to the Lender on the date of this Agreement.

(b) In addition, the Borrower shall pay any Other Taxes to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law.

(c) Whenever any Non-Excluded Taxes or Other Taxes are payable by the Borrower, as promptly as possible thereafter the Borrower shall send to the Lender for its own

account an original or copy of the official receipt received by the Borrower (or other evidence of payment that is reasonably satisfactory to Lender) showing payment thereof. If the Borrower fails to pay any Non-Excluded Taxes or Other Taxes when due to the appropriate taxing authority or fails to remit to the Lender receipts or other evidence of such payment by the Borrower, Borrower shall indemnify the Lender for any incremental taxes, interest or penalties that the Lender may reasonably incur as a result of any such failure.

(d) The Lender hereby affirms to the Borrower that it is, on the date hereof, a “U.S. Person” as defined in Section 7701(a)(30) of the Internal Revenue Code and is not subject to Non-Excluded Taxes under Federal law or the law of any other Governmental Authority in the United States of America. The Lender (and any successor or assign of the Lender that is a U.S. Person) shall deliver to the Borrower on or prior to the date on which the Lender (or any successor or assign of the Lender that is a U.S. Person) becomes party to this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrower ), executed originals of IRS Form W-9 certifying that the Lender (or any successor or assign of the Lender that is a U.S. Person) is exempt from U.S. federal backup withholding Tax. If at any time the Lender (or any successor or assign of the Lender) shall be or become a Person other than a U.S. Person (a “Non- U.S. Lender”), the Lender (or such successor or assign), as a condition precedent to any ability to thereafter make claims for Non-Excluded Taxes hereunder, shall deliver to the Borrower two copies of either United States Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN or Form W-8ECI, or, in the case of a Non-U.S. Lender claiming exemption from United States federal withholding Tax under Section 871(h) or 881(c) of the Internal Revenue Code with respect to payments of “portfolio interest,” a statement in the required form and a Form W-8BEN, or any subsequent versions thereof or successors thereto, properly completed and duly executed by such Non-U.S. Lender claiming complete exemption from, or a reduced rate of, United States federal withholding Tax on all payments by the Borrower under this Agreement and the other Financing Documents. Such forms shall be delivered by any Non U.S. Lender on or before the date it becomes a party to this Agreement. In addition, each Non-U.S. Lender shall deliver such forms promptly upon the obsolescence or invalidity of any form previously delivered by such Non-U.S. Lender. Each Non-U.S. Lender shall promptly notify the Borrower at any time it determines that it is no longer in a position to provide any previously delivered certificate to the Borrower (or any other form of certification adopted by the United States taxing authorities for such purpose). Notwithstanding any other provision of this paragraph, a Non-U.S. Lender shall not be required to deliver any form pursuant to this paragraph that such Non-U.S. Lender is not legally able to deliver.

(e) If the Lender is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding Tax with respect to payments under this Agreement, it shall deliver to the Borrower, at the time or times prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by the Borrower, such properly completed and executed documentation prescribed by applicable law as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate; provided, that in such case the Lender is legally entitled to complete, execute and deliver such documentation and in the Lender’s judgment such completion, execution or submission would not materially prejudice the legal position of the Lender.

(f) If a payment made to the Lender under this Agreement would be subject to U.S. federal withholding Tax imposed by FATCA if the Lender were to fail to comply with

the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Code, as applicable), the Lender shall deliver to the Borrower at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower such documentation prescribed by applicable law (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower as may be necessary for the Borrower to comply with its obligations under FATCA and to determine that the Lender has complied with the Lender’s obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment. Solely for purposes of this clause (f), “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement.

(g) If the Lender determines, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, that it has received a refund of any Non-Excluded Taxes or Other Taxes as to which it has been indemnified by the Borrower or with respect to which the Borrower has paid additional amounts pursuant to this Section, it shall pay over such refund to the Borrower (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made, or additional amounts paid, by the Borrower under this Section with respect to the Non-Excluded Taxes or Other Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses of the Lender and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund); provided, that the Borrower, upon the request of the Lender, agrees to repay the amount paid over to the Borrower (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) to the Lender in the event the Lender is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. This paragraph shall not be construed to require the Lender to make available its Tax Returns (or any other information relating to its Taxes which it deems confidential) to the Borrower or any other Person.

(h) This Section 4.03, and the obligations stated herein, shall survive termination of this Agreement.

(b) As of each date this representation and warranty is made or deemed repeated:

(i)

all Contracts to which the Borrower is a party or by which it or any of its properties is bound (other than the Financing Documents), including the Major Project Documents, and all documents amending, supplementing, interpreting or otherwise modifying or clarifying such Contracts in any material respect are listed in Schedule 5.11 other than Immaterial Contracts and the Borrower has provided true, correct and complete copies of all such Contracts to the Lender;

(ii)

(A) the Borrower has obtained all Necessary Contracts (including Deferred Contracts) that are required or reasonably necessary for the operation of the Systems (for which Fundings have been made or with respect to which a Funding Notice is pending), in each case materially in accordance with the Transaction Documents (and the Financial Models, but only with respect to each System for which a Funding is requested and only on the date of the applicable Funding Notice and such Funding) and (B) all such Necessary Contracts are, to the knowledge of the Borrower, in full force and effect;

(iii)

the Borrower has no reason to believe that all representations, warranties and other factual statements made by each Project Party in each of the Transaction Documents to which such Project Party is a party are not true and correct as of the date(s) made or deemed repeated (except with respect to representations and warranties that expressly refer only to an earlier date) other than any such inaccuracies that have not had and could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect;

(iv)

there are no Contracts between the Borrower and any other Person relating to the Borrower or the Systems or their respective properties other than (A) the Transaction Documents, (B) the Contracts listed in Schedule 5.11 as updated by the Borrower from time to time with the consent of the Lender (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), (C) the Immaterial Contracts, and (D) any other Contracts permitted by this Agreement; and

(c) On each Funding Notice Date, all Necessary Contracts (including all Deferred Contracts) which as of such Funding Notice Date are required or reasonably necessary to be in place have been duly executed and delivered and are, to the knowledge of the Borrower, in full force and effect.

Section 5.12 Collateral.

(a) The Collateral includes all of the Equity Interests in, and all of the tangible and intangible assets of, the Borrower.

(b) The Liens and security interests granted to the Lender pursuant to the Security Documents in effect on each date this representation is made or deemed repeated constitute, as to personal property of the Borrower, a valid first-priority security interest in such personal property.

(b) The security interest granted to the Lender pursuant to the Security Documents in the Collateral consisting of personal property (including fixtures) will be perfected (i) with respect to any property that can be perfected by filing of a UCC financing statement, upon the filing of UCC financing statements in the filing offices identified in Schedule 5.12(c), and (ii) with respect to any property (if any) that can be perfected solely by possession, upon the Lender receiving possession thereof, and in each case such security interest will be, as to Collateral perfected under the UCC or by possession as aforesaid, superior and prior to the rights of all third Persons now existing or hereafter arising whether by way of mortgage, lien, security interest, encumbrance, assignment or otherwise, in each case subject only to Permitted Liens. After giving effect to the filings, registrations and giving of notice referred to in the immediately preceding sentence, all such action as is necessary has been taken to establish and perfect the Lender’s rights in and to the Collateral covered by the Security Documents in effect on the date this representation is made or deemed repeated to the extent the Lender’s security interest can be perfected by filing, including any recordation, filing, registration, giving of notice or other similar action under the UCC. No filing, recordation, re-filing or re-recording other than those

listed on Schedule 5.12(c) is necessary to perfect (or maintain the perfection of) the interest, title or Liens of the Security Documents (to the extent the Lender’s security interest can be perfected by filing under the UCC or recording), and on and as of each relevant date on which this representation and warranty is made or deemed repeated, all such filings or recordings have been made. The Borrower and the Pledgor have properly delivered or caused to be delivered to the Lender, or provided the Lender control of, all Collateral relating to assets of or equity in the Borrower that requires perfection of the Liens and security interests described above by possession or control. All or substantially all of the Collateral relating to assets of or equity in the Borrower (other than the Account Collateral, certificates, securities, investments, chattel paper, books and records and general intangibles), is or will (when acquired) be located on the Sites.

Section 5.13 Ownership of Properties.

(a) The Borrower has valid and enforceable easements, rights of way or similar property rights in the Easements relating to each System.

(b) The Borrower has a good and valid ownership interest, license interest or other right of use in all other property and assets (tangible and intangible other than real estate) included in the Collateral relating to assets of or equity in the Borrower under each Security Document. Such ownership interests or other rights of use are and will be, together with any other assets or interests contemplated to be acquired pursuant to the LTSA for each System, sufficient to permit operation of the Systems, substantially in accordance with the Project Documents.

(d) The properties and assets of the Borrower are separately identifiable and are not commingled with the properties and assets of any other Person and are readily distinguishable from the property and assets of other Persons.

(e) Other than the interests in the Leasehold Property pursuant to the Major Project Documents, the Borrower does not have any leasehold interest in, and is not lessee of, any real property.

(f) There are no Laws or similar restrictions of Governmental Authorities applicable to the Leasehold Property or Easements and no Claims are pending (or have been threatened in writing) whether by Governmental Authorities or third parties, in each case, where such Laws, restrictions or Claims could reasonably be expected to (i) adversely affect the Borrower’s ability to use and conduct the operations on such real property materially in accordance with the applicable Financial Models or (ii) in the aggregate, otherwise have a Material Adverse Effect. To the knowledge of the Borrower, there are no soil, structural, subsurface or other natural or artificial conditions upon or about, or other facts or conditions involving, any Leasehold Property or property subject to an Easement that could reasonably be expected to (i) adversely affect the Borrower’s ability to use and conduct the operations on such real property materially in accordance with the applicable Financial Models or (ii) in the aggregate, otherwise have a Material Adverse Effect. To the knowledge of the Borrower, without any inquiry, there are not any pending or planned changes to the Laws applicable to, or

restrictions promulgated or enforced by Governmental Authorities with jurisdiction over, the Leasehold Property or property subject to Easements, where such pending or planned changes could reasonably be expected to (i) adversely affect the Borrower’s ability to use and conduct the operations on such real property materially in accordance with the assumptions set forth with respect thereto in the applicable Financial Models or (ii) in the aggregate, otherwise have a Material Adverse Effect.

Section 5.14 Taxes.

(a) Except as disclosed on Schedule 5.14, the Borrower has:

(i)

(A)

such Environmental Event is cured within [***] days of the occurrence thereof, which cure period will be extended, in respect of any Environmental Event that, in the reasonable judgment of the Lender, is capable of remedy but would require a longer cure period, for a further [***] days (which may be extended by the Lender, in its sole discretion, following consultation with the Borrower), for a total of [***] days, in each case, if the Borrower is diligently seeking to remedy such default; or

Eligible Defaults.

Defaults that meet all such requirements are referred to as “Special System Events.”

(ii)

Cure Right. To cure a Special System Event, the Borrower will be entitled to sever the Defaulted System(s) in accordance with the terms of Section 3.12 (System Severance) by meeting all of the requirements for severance of the Defaulted System(s) thereunder; provided, that the Lender reasonably determines, in consultation with the Independent Engineer or other applicable Consultants, that after such severance, no Default or Event of Default would be existing with respect to any Systems other than the Defaulted System(s) to be so severed.

(iii)

To exercise its System severance rights hereunder with respect to any Defaulted System affected by a Special System Event, the Borrower shall provide the notices and all related documents as required by Section 3.12(b) (System Severance – Process and Requirements).

Notwithstanding any representations or warranties made herein by the Borrower or in any other Financing Document by any other Loan Party with respect to the Parent or the delivery of any information regarding the Parent required hereunder (including, without limitation any financial statements or other information about, or provided or required to be provided by, such Person), the parties hereto each acknowledge and agree that (a) the Parent is not a party to this Agreement or any other Financing Documents; (b) the Parent shall not have any liability for breach by any Loan Party under any Financing Documents; and (c) nothing in this sentence shall in any way be deemed to limit the obligations or liabilities of any other Loan Parties (if any) with respect to any breach of representations, warranties or other obligations set forth in the Financing Documents applicable to the Parent.

Section 9.08 Indemnification by the Borrower.

(a) In addition to the indemnity by the Borrower set forth in Section 9.11(f) (Notices and Other Communications), the Borrower hereby agrees to indemnify the Lender and each Related Party of the Lender (each such Person being called an “Indemnitee”) against, and hold each Indemnitee harmless from, any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and related expenses (including all reasonable fees, costs and expenses of outside counsel for any Indemnitee), incurred by any Indemnitee or asserted against any Indemnitee arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of:

(i)

the execution or delivery of this Agreement, any other Transaction Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby or thereby, the performance by the parties hereto or thereto of their respective obligations hereunder or thereunder or the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby;

(ii)

any Loan or the use or proposed use of the proceeds therefrom;

(iii)

(iv)

any actual or prospective Claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding relating to any of the foregoing, whether based on

contract, tort or any other theory, regardless of whether any Indemnitee is a party thereto and whether or not any of the transactions contemplated hereunder or under any of the other Financing Documents is consummated, in all cases, whether or not caused by or arising, in whole or in part, out of the comparative, contributory or sole negligence of the Indemnitee; and/or

(v)

any Claim, demand or liability for broker’s or finder’s or placement fees or similar commissions, whether or not payable by the Borrower, alleged to have been incurred in connection with such transactions, other than any broker’s or finder’s fees payable to Persons engaged by the Lender without the knowledge of the Borrower;

provided, that such indemnity shall not, as to any Indemnitee, be available to the extent that such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or related expenses are (x) determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and non-appealable judgment to have resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee, (y) arising out of any action, suit or proceeding brought by any Loan Party against an Indemnitee for such Indemnitee’s gross negligence or willful misconduct under this Agreement or any other Financing Document, if such Loan Party has obtained a final and non-appealable judgment in its favor on such claim as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction, or (z) arising out of any action, suit or proceeding that does not involve an act or omission of any Loan Party of any of its Affiliates and that is brought by an Indemnitee against another Indemnitee.

Section 9.09 Interest Rate Limitation. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in any Financing Document, the interest paid or agreed to be paid under the Financing Documents shall not exceed the maximum rate of non-usurious interest permitted by applicable Law (the “Maximum Rate”). If the Lender shall receive interest in an amount that exceeds the Maximum Rate, the excess interest shall be applied to the principal of the Loans or, if it exceeds such unpaid principal, refunded to the Borrower. In determining whether the interest contracted for, charged, or received by the Lender exceeds the Maximum Rate, the Lender may, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, (a) characterize any payment that is not principal as an expense, fee, or premium rather than interest, (b) exclude prepayments and the effects thereof, and (c) amortize, prorate, allocate, and spread in equal or unequal parts the total amount of interest throughout the contemplated term of the Obligations hereunder.

Section 9.10 No Waiver; Cumulative Remedies. No failure by the Lender to exercise, and no delay by the Lender in exercising, any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder or under any other Financing Document shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, remedy, power or privilege.

The Borrower shall indemnify the Lender and the Related Parties from all losses, costs, expenses and liabilities resulting from the reliance by such Person on each notice purportedly given by or on behalf of the Borrower.

(f) The Borrower hereby agrees that it will provide to the Lender all information, documents and other materials that it is obligated to furnish to the Lender pursuant to the Financing Documents, including all notices, requests, financial statements, financial and other reports, certificates and other information materials, but excluding any such communication that (i) relates to the Funding, (ii) relates to the payment of any principal or other amount due under this Agreement prior to the scheduled date therefor, (iii) provides notice of any Default or Event of Default, or (iv) is required to be delivered to satisfy any condition precedent to Funding (all such non-excluded communications being referred to herein collectively as “Communications”), by transmitting the Communications in an electronic/soft medium in a format acceptable to the Lender to xxxxxx@xxx.xxx. In addition, the Borrower agrees to continue to provide the Communications to the Lender in the manner specified in the Financing Documents but only to the extent requested by the Lender.

(g) The Lender agrees that the receipt of the Communications by the Lender at its e-mail address set forth in Schedule 9.11(a) shall constitute effective delivery of the Communications to the Lender for purposes of the Financing Documents.

(h) Notwithstanding clauses (f) and (g) above, nothing herein shall prejudice the right of the Lender to give any notice or other communication pursuant to any Financing Document in any other manner specified in such Financing Document.

The rights of the Lender and its Affiliates under this Section 9.13 are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff) that the Lender or its Affiliates may have. The Lender agrees to notify the Borrower promptly after any such setoff and application; provided, that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such setoff and application.

Section 9.14 Severability. If any provision of this Agreement or any other Financing Document is held to be illegal, invalid or unenforceable, (a) the legality, validity and enforceability of the remaining provisions of this Agreement and the other Financing Documents shall not be affected or impaired thereby and (b) the parties shall endeavor in good faith

negotiations to replace the illegal, invalid or unenforceable provisions with valid provisions the economic effect of which comes as close as possible to that of the illegal, invalid or unenforceable provisions.

Section 9.15 Survival. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, Section 9.06 (Costs and Expenses) and Section 9.08 (Indemnification by the Borrower) shall survive any termination of this Agreement.

Such representations and warranties have been or will be relied upon by the Lender, regardless of any independent knowledge of, or investigation made by, the Lender or on its behalf and notwithstanding that the Lender may have had notice or knowledge of any Default or Event of Default at the time of the Funding, and shall continue in full force and effect as long as any Loan or any other Obligation hereunder or under any other Financing Document shall remain unpaid or unsatisfied. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Parties acknowledge that the representations and warranties set forth in Article V hereof are made only as of the Closing Date, the Effective Date and on each Funding Date and shall not be continued as continuing representations and warranties.

Section 9.16 Confidentiality. In handling any information marked as confidential by the Borrower (including any Operating Budget), the Lender and all employees and agents of the Lender shall exercise the same degree of care that the Lender exercises with respect to its own proprietary information of the same types to maintain the confidentiality of any non-public information thereby received or received pursuant to this Agreement except that disclosure of such information may be made (a) to the subsidiaries or Affiliates of the Lender (such subsidiaries and Affiliates, collectively, “Bank Entities”), (b) subject to an agreement containing provisions substantially the same as this Section, to prospective Participants, transferees or purchasers of any interest in the Obligations, (c) as required by law, regulations, rule or order, subpoena, judicial order or similar order, (d) as may be required in connection with the examination, audit or similar investigation of the Lender and (e) as the Lender may reasonably consider necessary in connection with the enforcement of any remedies under the Financing Documents. Confidential information hereunder shall not include information that either: (i) is in the public domain or in the knowledge or possession of the Lender when disclosed to the Lender, or becomes part of the public domain after disclosure to the Lender through no fault of the Lender; or (ii) is disclosed to the Lender by a third party, provided, the Lender does not have actual knowledge that such third party is prohibited from disclosing such information. Bank Entities may use quarterly and annual financial information relating to the Borrower and the Parent for reporting purposes and the development and distribution of databases and market analyses so long as such confidential information is aggregated and anonymized prior to distribution unless otherwise expressly prohibited by the Borrower; provided, that in no event shall the foregoing permit the incorporation of any of the Borrower’s proprietary technology or processes, market analyses or business or strategic plans for such purposes. The provisions of the immediately preceding sentence shall survive the termination of this Agreement.

Section 9.17 Waiver of Consequential Damages, Etc. Except as otherwise provided in Section 9.08 (Indemnification by Borrower) for the benefit of any Indemnitee, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law, the Borrower shall not assert, and the Borrower hereby

waives, any Claim against any Indemnitee, on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages) arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of, this Agreement, any other Financing Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby, the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, any Loan or the use of the proceeds thereof. No Indemnitee shall be liable for any damages arising from the use by unintended recipients of any information or other materials distributed by it through telecommunications, electronic or other information transmission systems in connection with this Agreement or the other Financing Documents or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby.
