such inspection or audit discloses that any error has occurred and that, as a result thereof, any overpayment or any underpayment has occurred, the amount thereof shall promptly be paid with interest at the rate set forth in Section 7.4 to the Party to whom it is owed by the other Party; provided, that a Party shall only be liable for any amounts hereunder that relate to errors discovered and disclosed within the authorized inspection and audit period.

(b) Operating and Capital Budget.

(i) Assist the Owner and Administrator as necessary in preparing a proposed budget for the Wind Plant (the “Operating and Capital Budget”), detailing the expected revenue and expenses for the following year. In the event that a proposed Operating and Capital Budget is not adopted by the Owner within the time indicated, the Owner shall so notify the O&M Contractor, and the Operating and Capital Budget, prepared and approved for the previous year, including in the case of the Operating and Capital Budget for the second year of operations, the First Year’s Operating and Capital Budget attached as Exhibit C shall be utilized until such time as the new Operating and Capital Budget is approved. Proposed revisions to the Operating and Capital Budget may be submitted from time to time by the O&M Contractor, that, if approved by the Owner (such approval not to be unreasonably withheld), shall replace the existing Operating and Capital Budget for the remainder of the relevant year. The bona fide costs and expenses incurred by the O&M Contractor in connection with the provision of the Services in accordance with the most recently approved Operating and Capital Budget shall not require any additional approval of the Owner; provided, however, that the O&M Contractor shall nevertheless be responsible for ensuring that such expenditures are commercially reasonable, bona fide and necessary.

(ii) If, during any calendar year the O&M Contractor believes that a variance in excess of ten percent (10%) is reasonably likely to occur between the actual expense of operating and maintaining the Wind Plant and the budgeted expense of operating and maintaining the Wind Plant, the O&M Contractor shall promptly notify the Owner of such belief in writing and advise the Owner of the necessary revisions to the annual operating budget and the reasons for those revisions. If the Owner agrees, the Parties shall proceed in good faith to revise the Operating and Capital Budget in such manner for the balance of the year.

(c) Restricted Actions. The O&M Contractor shall obtain the Owner’s permission before engaging in activities with respect to the Wind Plant that are not (i) within the scope of this Agreement or (ii) reasonably required to prevent, mitigate or respond to an Emergency. The O&M Contractor shall not in any case undertake any of the following actions, without the prior written approval of the Owner:

(i) cause the creation or assumption by the Owner of any indebtedness for borrowed money, or cause any mortgage, lien, security interest or encumbrance on any assets or properties of the Wind Plant;

(ii) cause the Owner to act as surety, grant guaranties or incur similar liabilities on behalf of third parties, directly or indirectly, whether for borrowed money or otherwise;

(iii) cause the conveyance, modification, sale or other disposition of any part of the Wind Plant (but without prejudice to Section 4.1(h));

(iv) waive any of the Owner’s rights under, or terminate or amend any Project Agreement;

(v) change the capacity characteristics of the Wind Plant; or

(vi) cause the sale of electric energy from the Wind Plant, other than as may be directed by the Owner.

Each instance of additional agreed upon service must be specified in a written statement of work (a “Statement of Work”) executed by the Parties. Each Statement of Work shall reference this Agreement and shall specify (i) the services to be performed by the O&M Contractor, (ii) an estimate of charges, based on the Rate Schedule, to the Owner for the services and (iii) other mutually agreed upon information.

(e) Emergencies. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event of any Emergency involving the Wind Plant that endangers life or property, the O&M Contractor shall take such action as may be reasonable and necessary to prevent, avoid or mitigate injury, damage or loss and shall, as soon as practicable, report any such material incident, including the O&M Contractor’s response thereto, to the Owner.

4.3 Unassumed Obligations.

Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the O&M Contractor shall have no liability for any obligations not expressly assumed by it under this Agreement and nothing in this Agreement shall obligate the O&M Contractor to perform any duties or assume any liabilities under any agreement to which the O&M Contractor is not directly a party unless such duties are also expressly described in this Agreement and then only to such extent. The Owner acknowledges that the O&M Contractor’s performance under this Agreement is subject to the O&M Contractor having access to all parts of the Wind Plant and the Wind Plant Site (subject to Wind Plant Site safety rules and the terms of Project Agreements) and commercially reasonable availability of all documents as required by the O&M Contractor, including but not limited to all applicable Permits, authorizations or consents, in the performance of its duties hereunder from time to time.

If there is a dispute as to whether a breach has occurred or if any other dispute under this Agreement has arisen, either party may give notice thereof to the other party which notice shall describe in reasonable detail the basis and specifics of the alleged breach or dispute. Within five (5) days after delivery of such notice, the designated representatives of both parties shall meet to discuss and attempt to resolve or cure such dispute or claimed breach.

The arbitrators shall determine all questions of fact and law relating to any controversy, claim or

dispute hereunder, including but not limited to whether or not any such controversy, claim or dispute is subject to the arbitration provisions contained herein.

(b) Any Party desiring arbitration shall serve on the other Party and any other applicable Person, in accordance with the aforesaid Rules, its notice of arbitration (“Arbitration Notice”), accompanied by the name of the arbitrator selected by the Party serving the Arbitration Notice.

If the two arbitrators so chosen cannot agree upon a third arbitrator within ten (10) days after the appointment of a second arbitrator, the third arbitrator shall be selected by the AAA, which shall be the appointing authority and administering authority in accordance with the Rules; provided, that the Parties may strike the names of arbitrators proposed by the AAA from a first and a second list to select the third arbitrator, and the AAA shall only select such arbitrator in its discretion if all those proposed by the AAA on the two lists are rejected by the Parties. The arbitration proceedings provided hereunder are hereby declared to be self-executing, and it shall not be necessary to petition a court to compel arbitration.

(c) If a controversy, claim or dispute arises between the Parties which is subject to the arbitration provisions hereunder, and there exists or later arises a controversy, claim or dispute between the Parties and any third party, which controversy, claim or dispute arises out of or relates to the same transaction or series of transactions, said third party controversy, claim or dispute shall be consolidated with the arbitration proceedings hereunder; provided, however, that any such third party must be a party to an agreement with the Owner or the O&M Contractor which provides for arbitration of disputes thereunder in accordance with rules and procedures substantially the same in all material respects as provided for herein, or, if not, must consent to arbitration as provided for hereunder.

(d) All arbitration proceedings shall be held in San Francisco, CA.
