Without limiting the foregoing, the representations set forth in Sections 3.23, 3.24, 3.25, 4.8, and 5.11 shall survive until the expiration of the applicable statute of limitations plus ninety (90) days.

7.3. Indemnity. Without duplication of any indemnity provided pursuant to Article XI of the Company LLC Agreement, each Party (the “Indemnifying Party”) shall indemnify the other Parties and their Affiliates and agents, including accountants, counsel, directors, officers, employees and consultants (the “Indemnified Parties”), against and hold each of them harmless from any and all damage, loss, liability and expense (including reasonable expenses of investigation and reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses in connection with any proceeding, whether by a third party or instituted in order to recover any of the foregoing hereunder), whether or not arising due to third party claims or incurred or suffered by any Indemnified Party, caused by, resulting from, arising out of or relating to (i) any inaccuracy or breach of any representation or warranty made by or on behalf of the Indemnifying Party in this Agreement, and (ii) any failure by the Indemnifying Party to perform or otherwise fulfill any agreement or covenant to be performed by it hereunder or under any of the Principal Facility Documents or Financing Documents; provided that the indemnity obligations set forth in this Section 7.3 shall not apply to an Indemnified Party to the extent that the indemnity claim is attributable to (x) the fraud, gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnified Party or (y) the inaccuracy or breach of any representation or warranty made by or on behalf of such Indemnified Party in this Agreement or (z) the failure of such Indemnifying Party to perform or otherwise fulfill any agreement or covenant to be performed by it hereunder or under any of the Principal Facility Documents or Financing Documents.

7.4. Limitation on Liability.

(a) The amount required to be paid by any Party to indemnify any other Party pursuant to Section 7.3 shall be reduced to the extent of any amounts actually received by such other Party with respect to the amounts covered by such indemnification payment pursuant to (i) this Agreement, (ii) the Bloom Guarantee, (iii) the Company LLC Agreement and (iv) the terms of the insurance policies (if any) obtained and maintained by the Company, the Facility Company, the Investor or the Bloom Member or any Affiliate thereof covering such claim. In the event an Indemnified Party or any of its Affiliates receives proceeds from indemnification under this Agreement, the Bloom Guarantee, the Company LLC Agreement or any insurance policy with respect to an indemnity clam for which it previously received indemnification payments, such Indemnified Party shall promptly pay to the Indemnifying Party such proceeds to the extent such proceeds and the previously paid indemnification payments, in the aggregate, exceed the amount of the applicable indemnity claim.

(b) Amounts paid pursuant to Section 7.3 shall, to the maximum extent permitted under Applicable Law, be treated as an adjustment to the capital contributions of the Members (as defined in the LLC Agreement) (or otherwise as a non-taxable reimbursement, contribution, or return of capital, as the case may be). To the extent any amounts paid pursuant to this Section 7.3 are includible in the recipient’s gross income, as determined by agreement of the parties, or if there is no agreement, by an opinion of a nationally-recognized tax counsel selected jointly by the parties at a “should” level of comfort that such amount is includable as income of the recipient, solely to the extent the tax liability with respect to the inclusion of such payment of amounts in the income of the recipient is greater than the tax liability of the recipient would have been if there had been no breach giving rise to the payment of such amounts, such payment will be grossed-up and paid on an after-tax basis (assuming the then-highest highest marginal federal income tax rate then applicable to corporations). In the event an indemnified party is entitled to claim an item of loss or deduction, credit or other tax benefit with respect to an item that gives rise to the receipt of an indemnity payment, such tax benefit shall be taken into account for purposes of determining the amount of the indemnification payment and, to the extent payment has been made to an indemnified party prior to the period in which such tax benefit was claimed, the indemnified party shall promptly repay the indemnifying party an amount equal to the present value of such loss or deduction, credit or other tax benefit (in each case, assuming then-highest marginal federal income tax rate then applicable to corporations).

(c) NO PARTY SHALL BE LIABLE (WHETHER IN CONTRACT, TORT, STRICT LIABILITY, EQUITY, OR OTHERWISE) FOR ANY SPECIAL, INDIRECT, PUNITIVE, EXEMPLARY, INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, WHETHER OR NOT FORESEEABLE, INCLUDING LOST PROFITS AND ANY OTHER DAMAGES WHICH CANNOT BE READILY ASCERTAINED AND QUANTIFIED, FOR ANY BREACH OF A REPRESENTATION OR WARRANTY UNDER THIS AGREEMENT.

Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, a Party may disclose information to its Affiliates and other advisors in accordance with this Agreement if such Persons have agreed with the other Parties in writing to the terms of this Section 7.17(a) and, additionally, the Bloom Member and any of its Affiliates (including entities that become Affiliates subsequent to the date hereof) may use any operational data with respect to the Facilities for the purpose of researching, analyzing, designing, improving, developing, manufacturing, installing, modifying or operating other fuel cell- powered electric generating facilities, whether similar to or different from the Facilities.

(b) 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 (all such information that may be so disclosed hereunder is hereinafter referred to as the “Tax Information”). For purposes of this Section 7.17(b), the Tax Information includes only those facts that may be relevant to understanding the purported or claimed U.S. federal income tax treatment or tax structure of the Transaction and, to eliminate any doubt, therefore specifically does not include information that either reveals or standing alone or in the aggregate with other information so disclosed tends of itself to reveal or allow the recipient of the information to ascertain the identity of any of the Facility Entities, any member (or potential member) of the Facility Entities, or any other third parties involved in any of the Transaction or any other potential transactions with any of the foregoing. However, any Tax Information is required to be kept confidential to the extent necessary to comply with any applicable securities laws. This Section 7.17(b) is intended to prevent such an investment in the Facility Entities from being treated as “reportable transaction” as a result of it being a transaction offered to a taxpayer under conditions of confidentiality within the meaning of Code Sections 6011, 6111 and 6112 (or any successor provision) and the Treasury Regulations thereunder (as clarified by Notice 2004-80 and Notice 2005-22) and shall be construed in a manner consistent with such purpose.

7.18. Further Assurances.

(a) Each Party hereto covenants and agrees promptly to execute, deliver, file, or record such agreements, instruments, certificates and other documents and to do and perform such other and further acts and things as any other Party hereto may reasonably request or as may otherwise be necessary or proper to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby and to carry out the provisions of this Agreement.

(b) Each Party hereto covenants and agrees to promptly deliver the information requested by any other Party in order to allow such party to comply with the Patriot Act, including, without limitation, the names, addresses and other information that will allow the requesting Party to identify the other Party in accordance with the requirements of the Patriot Act.

ANNEX 3

Insurance Requirements

The Facility Company shall, without cost to the Secured Parties (as defined in the Note Purchase Agreement), obtain and maintain or cause to be obtained and maintained in full force and effect the insurance policies as required in this Annex.

In each case the policies must be with insurance carriers with a rating of at least A- and a financial size category of at least X by A.M. Best or A by S&P or otherwise reasonably acceptable to the Required Holders (as defined in the Note Purchase Agreement).

The policies specified in Appendix 1 of this Annex shall be in full force and effect at all times on and after the Execution Date or at such later inception date as is permitted by Appendix 1 to this Annex until termination of the Financing Documents subject to renewal no more frequently than annually.

At no time shall there be any gap in cover.

The policy limits and cover of the insurances required in this Annex shall be sufficient to satisfy the requirements set forth in the Principal Facility Documents, but in no event less than the limits and coverage provisions set forth in Appendix 1 herein. The obligation to verify that the insurances carried by the Facility Company meet the requirements of the Principal Facility Documents shall rest solely with the Facility Company.

The Facility Company shall not violate or permit to be violated any condition, provision or requirement of any insurance policy required by this Annex, and the Facility Company shall perform, satisfy and comply with all conditions, provisions and requirements of all insurance policies.

The Facility Company hereby waives any and every claim for recovery against each note purchaser party to Note Purchase Agreement (the “Purchasers”) or their directors, officers and employees and agents for any and all loss or damage covered by any insurance policies to be maintained under this Annex to the extent such loss or damage is recovered under any such policy.

All policies of insurance required to be maintained pursuant to this Annex, other than cover required by law, shall be endorsed such that if at any time they are cancelled, lapsed, terminated or suspended (by any party including the insuring parties), such cancellation, lapse, termination or suspension shall not become effective until at least 30 days after receipt by the Deutsche Bank Trust Company Americas (acting in its capacity as collateral agent for the Purchasers, the “Collateral Agent”) from such insurer of such cancellation, lapse, termination or suspension, except for non-payment of premium for which the required written notice shall be 10 days. In addition to this requirement, the Facility Company shall inform each of the Purchasers as soon a reasonably possible if it becomes aware of and such cancellation, lapse, termination or suspension or of any reasonable prospect of such and shall further requite its broker to do the same.

All policies of insurance required to be maintained pursuant to this Annex except workers compensation and employers liability shall provide:

•

Additional Insured status for the Collateral Agent and each of the Purchasers, the Investor, the Bloom Guarantor and in the case of liability policies only also their respective affiliates, directors, officers, employees and agents (collectively, the “Additional Insureds”). This requirement shall not apply to any professional indemnity policy.

•

Waivers of subrogation from the insurers in favor of the Additional Insureds.

•

Policies shall either (a) be non-cancellable except for non-payment of premium with at least 10 days written notice of such to each of the Purchasers; or (b) have cancellation/non-payment provisions in accordance with the provisions of this Annex.

•

Each Purchaser or the Collateral Agent, on behalf of the Purchasers, will have the right but not the obligation to pay premiums on behalf of the Facility Company in case of non- payment.

•

Policies shall be unaffected by any bankruptcy or foreclosure relating to the Facility Company or the Project.

•

Insurance shall be primary and not excess to or contributing with any other insurance or self-insurance maintained by the Facility Company or the Additional Insureds. However, policies can act in excess of underlying policies and any policies provided by contractors in accordance with the requirements of this Annex.

•

The Facility Company shall ensure that no Insurer of a policy required in accordance with the terms of this Annex shall permit the first named insured under such policy to reduce limits or cover or degrade terms and conditions without the prior written approval of the Required Holders.

•

The Additional Insureds shall have no obligations whatsoever including but not limited to no obligation to pay premium and no obligation to pay deductibles.

•

Policy limits shall act in excess of deductibles including the indemnity period for time element insurance which shall act in excess of the delay deductible for such insurance.

•

Insurer costs and expenses including any associated with claims including claims adjustment are for the account of the relevant insurer and further will not be deducted from policy limits or sublimits.

In addition, all property policies including marine cargo (if applicable) and further including any time element insurance shall provide:

•

That the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the holders of the Notes (as defined in the Note Purchase Agreement) shall be sole loss payee of any amounts payable under the policies in relation to the Facility Company and the Project.

•

A non-vitiation clause the form of a multiple insured clause or equivalent protection acceptable to the Required Holders acting reasonably.

•

Cover for accidental errors and omissions with, to the extent available on commercially reasonable terms, with no sublimit applied or otherwise a sublimit acceptable to the Collateral Agent acting reasonably.

•

Replacement cost, new for old, with no deduction of any kind including no coinsurance provision or a waiver thereof and no allowance for depreciation (accounting or otherwise), obsolescence or loss of value over time other than in a total constructive loss or other scenario where repair/replacement does not follow loss.

•

An advance or partial payment endorsement.

•

A clause requiring the insurer to make final payment on any claim within thirty days after the submission of proof of loss and its acceptance by the insurer.

•

Except for marine transit policies, a LEG2 exclusion or similar endorsement with no sublimit applied.

In addition, all liability policies except workers compensation and employers liability shall provide:

•

Severability.

•

Cross liability with no insured or additional insured excluded.

The above requirements shall be referred to as the “Required Holder Provisions”. The Required Holder Provisions can be provided either as endorsements to or in the main body of the relevant policy. All policies that replace or renew policies shall contain provisions, including limits, sublimits, deductibles, exclusions and the Required Holder Provisions, that are, mutatis mutandis, in all material regards at least the same as those in place at the Execution Date or, if later, the date of first inception of such policy cover, except in relation to risks where exposure no longer exists or where a better level of cover is provided or which would be required in accordance with the provisions of this Annex.

The Facility Company shall provide each of the Purchasers as soon as reasonably possible prior to financial close, and at least 10 days prior to any subsequent policy inception or renewal, a certificate of pre-agreed format from:

•

Each placing broker confirming:

•

Summary policy terms in the pre-agreed format.

•

That all policies required by this Annex are in full force and effect.

•

All insurance premiums that are due and payable have been paid in full with no premium overdue.

There shall be appended to such certificate or letter of undertaking insurance certificates for each policy required by this Annex listing the major sublimits (to be agreed) and confirming that all required endorsements that apply to such policy are in place.

•

The Insurance Consultant confirming that:

•

The insurance provided complies with the requirements of the Note Purchase Agreement, this Annex and further complies with the requirements of the Facility Company in the Principal Facility Documents.

•

That the undertakings made by each placing broker conform to the requirements of prudent industry practice.

The Collateral Agent may, at its sole discretion, waive the requirement for a certificate from the Insurance Consultant at policy replacement/renewal without requiring the approval of the Holders (as defined in the Note Purchase Agreement) or the Required Holders.

The insurance provided by the Facility Company shall be at least that evidenced in any certificates or other evidence provided by or on behalf of the Facility Company.

Any of the requirements of this Annex can be satisfied by single or by combined policies. However, as would be deemed necessary in accordance with prudent industry practice, a joint loss agreement will be required and included as part of the respective policies (for example, if there were separate marine transit and builders all-risk policies, then a 50:50 clause would be required).

If in the opinion of the Facility Company, acting reasonably, any insurance, including the terms and conditions, required endorsements and limits or deductibles thereof, hereby required by this Annex to be maintained, other than insurance required to be maintained by law which shall be maintained at all times, shall not be available on commercially reasonable terms in the commercial insurance market, the Facility Company shall promptly inform the Collateral Agent and each of the Purchasers of such purported unavailability and the Facility Company shall seek a waiver from the Required Holders in relation to such purported unavailability in which case the Required Holders, acting after consultation with the Insurance Consultant, shall not unreasonably withhold agreement to waive such requirement to the extent the maintenance thereof is not so available. The granting by the Required Holders of any such waiver is conditional on: (i) the Facility Company first requesting such waiver in writing, which request shall be accompanied by written reports prepared by the Facility Company and its placing broker certifying that such insurance is not available on commercially reasonable terms in the commercial insurance market for projects of similar type and capacity and, in any case where the required amount is not so available, certifying as to the maximum amount which is so available, and explaining in detail the basis for such conclusions and the form and substance of such reports to be reasonably acceptable to the Required Holders after consultation with the Insurance Consultant; (ii) at any time after the granting of any such waiver, any Secured Party may request, and the Facility Company shall furnish to each Secured Party within fifteen (15) days after such request, supplemental reports reasonably acceptable to the Required Holders updating the prior reports and reaffirming such conclusion; (iii) any such waiver granted by the Required Holders can

amend, to the extent reasonably required to mitigate any increased risks created by the absence of insurance cover that is the subject of the waiver, any of the terms of this Annex and the Note Purchase Agreement; (iv) any Purchaser may require the Facility Company to obtain the best available insurance comparable to the requirements of this Annex on commercially reasonable terms then available in the commercial insurance market (as determined by the Insurance Consultant); and (v) such waiver shall be effective only so long as such insurance shall not be available on commercially reasonable terms in the commercial insurance market (as determined by the Insurance Consultant) it being understood that the failure of the Facility Company to furnish any supplemental reports shall be deemed to be conclusive evidence that such waiver is no longer effective because such condition no longer exists, but that such failure is not the only way to establish such non-existence.

Any failure on the part of any Secured Party to pursue or obtain the evidence of insurance required by this Annex from the Facility Company and/or failure to point out any non- compliance of such evidence of insurance shall not constitute a waiver of any of the insurance requirements in this Annex.

Each liability insurance policy required pursuant to this Annex that is permitted to be written on a “claims made” basis shall provide (a) a retroactive date (as such term is specified in each of such policies) that is no later than the Execution Date and (b) each time any policy written on a “claims made” basis is not renewed or the retroactive date of such policy is to be changed, the Facility Company shall obtain and maintain, or cause to be obtained or maintained, for each such policy or policies the broadest extended reporting period coverage, or “tail”, reasonably available in the commercial insurance market for each such policy or policies but in no case less than three (3) years. The Facility Company may satisfy the requirements of this Section by obtaining “prior acts” coverage from a subsequent insurance carrier on terms acceptable to the Collateral Agent, acting reasonably.

All property insurance including marine cargo and any time element insurance shall not include any annual or term aggregate limits or sublimits except for the perils of windstorm, flood, earth movement, unintentional errors & omissions in reporting and land and water decontamination but only to the extent permitted in Appendix 1 to this Annex. Liability policies may have general aggregate limits in accordance with prudent insurance market practice.

All insurance policies required to be maintained pursuant to this Annex shall contain terms and conditions reasonably acceptable to the Required Holders following consultation with the Insurance Consultant.

In the event that at any time the insurance as herein provided or as evidenced shall be reduced or cease to be maintained, then (without limiting the rights of any Secured Party hereunder in respect of the Event of Default (as defined in the Note Purchase Agreement) which arises as a result of such failure) any Secured Party, upon ten (10) Business Days’ prior written notice (unless such insurance coverage would lapse within such period, in which event notice should be given as soon as reasonably possible) to the Facility Company of any such failure, may (but shall not be obligated to) take out the required policies of insurance and pay the premiums on the same. All amounts so advanced for such purpose shall become an additional obligation of the Facility Company to the Secured Parties that provided such funding, and the Facility Company shall forthwith pay such amounts, together with interest on such amounts at the applicable Default Rate (as defined in the Note Purchase Agreement) from the date so advanced.

The Required Holders can, acting reasonably, require such additional cover to be provided as is required to conform to prudent industry practice.

The Required Holders shall have the option to be present and/or to send representatives during meetings and/or negotiations with insurers of any loss settlement in relation to the Facility Company or the Project regarding (a) total constructive loss or any scenario in which repair/replacement will not follow loss, (b) any circumstance involving a claim in relation to an event or series of events which has or could be reasonably expected to lead to a Default (as defined in the Note Purchase Agreement). Neither the Facility Company nor any of its Affiliates shall be permitted to settle any such claim with an insurer without the approval of the Required Holders to the agreed settlement.

Each Purchaser may, pursuant to its rights and obligations under the Note Purchase Agreement and this Annex and the provisions therein, consult with the Insurance Consultant and require reports, compliance certificates and other work product from the Insurance Consultant.

Terms used in this Annex, unless otherwise specifically defined, shall have the meaning normally ascribed to them in accordance with prudent industry practice in relation to a project similar in type and jurisdiction as the Project.

CAPITAL ACCOUNTS; ALLOCATIONS

4.1. Capital Accounts. The Company shall maintain for each Member a separate Capital Account in accordance with the rules of Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-l(b)(2)(iv). Each Member’s Capital Account shall be maintained in accordance with the following provisions:

(a) To each Member’s Capital Account there shall be credited the Member’s Capital Contributions, such Member’s distributive share of Profits and items of income and gain under Section 4.2 and any items in the nature of income or gain which are specially allocated to the Member pursuant to Section 4.3, Section 4.4 and Section 10.2(a) and the amount of any Company liabilities assumed by the Member or which are secured by any Company Asset distributed to such Member.

(b) To each Member’s Capital Account there shall be debited the amount of cash and the Value of any Company Asset distributed to such Member pursuant to any provision of this Agreement or the Equity Capital Contribution Agreement, such Member’s distributive share of Losses and items or loss and deduction under Section 4.2 and any items of loss and deduction which are specially allocated to the Member pursuant to Section 4.3, Section 4.4 and Section 10.2(a) and the amount of any liabilities of such Member assumed by the Company or which are secured by any property contributed by such Member to the Company.

(c) In determining the amount of any liability for purposes of the foregoing subsections (a) or (b), there shall be taken into account Code Section 752(c) and any other applicable provisions of the Code and the Treasury Regulations.

(d) In the event any Membership Interest in the Company is transferred in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, the Transferee shall succeed to the Capital Account of the transferor to the extent it relates to the transferred Membership Interest.

This Section 4.1 and the other provisions of this Agreement relating to the maintenance of Capital Accounts are intended to comply with Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-1(b) and 1.704-2, and will be interpreted and applied in a manner consistent with such Treasury Regulations. The Managing Member also shall make any adjustments that are necessary or appropriate to maintain equality between the Capital Accounts of the Members and the amount of capital reflected on the Company’s balance sheet, as computed for book purposes, in accordance with Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(q).

4.2. Profits and Losses. For purposes of maintaining Capital Accounts, after making the allocations provided under Section 4.3, all items of Company income, loss, gain, deduction and credit for any Fiscal Year will be allocated among the Members as follows:

(a) General Allocations. Except as provided in the following subsection (b) of this Section 4.2, Profits and Losses and constituent items of Company income, gain, loss, and deduction thereof shall be allocated for each Fiscal Year or part of a Fiscal Year, 90% to the Class A Members pro rata according to their respective Class A Units and 10% to the Class B Members pro rata according to their respective Class B Units.

(b) Items in Connection with Liquidation. Except as provided in the following subsection (c) of this Section 4.2, Profits and Losses and any other items of income, gain, loss or deduction, credits (including any ITCs) and any credit recapture (including any ITC recapture) for the Taxable Year in which there is a disposition of all or substantially all of the Assets of the Company pursuant to Section 10.2(a)(iii) shall be specially allocated pursuant to Section 10.2(a)(iv) and Section 10.2(a)(v).

(c) Allocation of ITC. It is the intention of the Members that both (i) the allocations provided in Section 4.2(a) constitute, for purposes of Treasury Regulations Section 1.46-3(f)(2)(i), the ratio in which the Members divide the general profits of the Company (that is, the taxable income of the partnership as described in Code Section 702(a)(9)) regardless of whether the Company has a profit or a loss for its Taxable year during which the Facility with respect to which the ITC is claimed is placed in service for federal income tax purposes, and (ii) the allocations provided in Section 4.2(a), constitute, for purposes of Treasury Regulations Section 1.46-3(f)(2)(ii), the allocation of all related items of income, gain, loss and deduction with respect to each item in respect of the Facility with respect to which the ITC is claimed. Accordingly, the Members’ shares of the basis of the Facility with respect to which the ITC is claimed shall be determined by reference to such general profits ratio under Treasury Regulations Section 1.46-3(f)(2)(i), and under the special allocation under Treasury Regulations Section 1.46- 3(f)(2)(ii), as 90% to the Class A Members, pro rata according to their respective Class A Units and 10% to the Class B Members pro rata according to their respective Class B Units.

4.3. Special Allocations. The following special allocations shall be made in the following order:

(a) Company Minimum Gain Chargeback. Notwithstanding the other provisions of this Article IV, except as provided in Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-2(f), if there is a net decrease in Company Minimum Gain during any Taxable Year, each Member shall be specially allocated items of Company income and gain for such Taxable Year (and, if necessary, subsequent Taxable Years) in an amount equal to such Member’s share of the net decrease in Company Minimum Gain, determined in accordance with Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-2(g). Allocations pursuant to the previous sentence shall be made in proportion to the respective amounts required to be allocated to each Member pursuant thereto. The items to be so allocated

shall be determined in accordance with Treasury Regulation Sections 1.704-2(f)(6) and 1.704-2(j)(2). This Section 4.3(a) is intended to comply with the minimum gain chargeback requirement in Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-2(f) and shall be interpreted consistently therewith.

(b) Chargeback of Minimum Gain Attributable to Member Nonrecourse Debt. Notwithstanding the other provisions of this Article IV, except as provided in Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-2(i)(4), if there is a net decrease in Member Nonrecourse Debt Minimum Gain attributable to a Member Nonrecourse Debt during any Taxable Year, each Member who has a share of the Member Nonrecourse Debt Minimum Gain attributable to such Member Nonrecourse Debt, determined in accordance with Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-2(i)(5), shall be specially allocated items of Company income and gain for such Taxable Year (and, if necessary, subsequent Taxable Years) in an amount equal to such Member’s share of the net decrease in Member Nonrecourse Debt, determined in accordance with Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-2(i)(4). Allocations pursuant to the previous sentence shall be made in proportion to the respective amounts required to be allocated to each Member pursuant thereto. The items to be so allocated shall be determined in accordance with Treasury Regulation Sections 1.704-2(i)(4) and 1.704-2(j)(2). This Section 4.3(b) is intended to comply with the partner nonrecourse debt minimum gain chargeback requirement in Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-2(i)(4) and shall be interpreted consistently therewith.

(c) Qualified Income Offset. In the event any Member unexpectedly receives any adjustments, allocations or distributions described in Treasury Regulations Sections 1.704- 1(b)(2)(ii)(d)(4), (5) or (6), items of Company income and gain shall be specially allocated to such Member in an amount and manner sufficient to eliminate, to the extent required by Treasury Regulations, the Adjusted Capital Account Deficit of the Member as quickly as possible; provided, that an allocation pursuant to this Section 4.3(c) shall be made only if and to the extent that such Member would have an Adjusted Capital Account Deficit after all other special allocations provided for in this Section 4.3 have been tentatively made as if this Section 4.3(c) were not in this Agreement.

(d) Loss Limitations. Losses allocated pursuant to Section 4.2 and Section 10.2(a)(v) shall not exceed the maximum amount of Losses and other items of loss or deduction that can be allocated without causing any Member to have an Adjusted Capital Account Deficit at the end of any Taxable Year. In the event some but not all of the Members would have Adjusted Capital Account Deficits as a consequence of an allocation of Losses pursuant to Section 4.2 or Section 10.2(a)(v), the limitation set forth in this Section 4.3(d) shall be applied on a Member by Member basis and Losses and items of loss or deduction not allocable to any Member as a result of such limitation shall be allocated to the other Members in the manner otherwise required pursuant to Section 4.2 and Section 10.2(a) to the extent such other Members have positive balances in their Capital Accounts so as to allocate the maximum permissible Losses to each Member under Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d).

(e) Gross Income Allocation. In the event any Member has a deficit Capital Account at the end of any Taxable Year that is in excess of the sum of (i) the amount such Member is obligated to restore pursuant to Section 10.3 of this Agreement and (ii) the amount such Member is deemed obligated to restore pursuant to the penultimate sentences of Treasury Regulation

Sections 1.704-2(g)(1) and 1.704-2(i)(5), each such Member shall be specially allocated items of Company income and gain in the amount of such excess as quickly as possible; provided, that an allocation pursuant to this Section 4.3(e) shall be made only if and to the extent that such Member would have a deficit Capital Account in excess of such sum after all other special allocations provided for in this Section 4.3 have been made as if Section 4.3(c) and this Section 4.3(e) were not in this Agreement.

(f) Nonrecourse Deductions. Nonrecourse Deductions for any Taxable Year shall be specially allocated to the Members 90% to the Class A Members, pro rata according to their respective Class A Units and 10% to the Class B Members pro rata according to their respective Class B Units.

(g) Member Nonrecourse Deductions. Any Member Nonrecourse Deductions for any Taxable Year shall be specially allocated to the Member who bears the economic risk of loss with respect to the Member Nonrecourse Debt to which such Member Nonrecourse Deductions are attributable in accordance with Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-2(i)(1).

(h) Section 754 Adjustments. If the Company distributes property to a Member in liquidation of the Membership Interest of the Member and there is an adjustment in the adjusted tax basis of Company property under Section 734(b) of the Code, such that the first sentence of Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(m)(4) applies, there will be a corresponding adjustment to the Capital Account of the Member receiving the distribution. If the Company distributes cash to a Member in excess of its outside basis in its Membership Interest, leading to an adjustment in the inside basis of the Company property under Section 734(b) of the Code pursuant to Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(m)(2), then solely for purposes of adjusting Capital Accounts of the Members, the adjustment in the inside basis will be treated as gain or loss and be allocated among the Members in accordance with Section 4.2, as in effect at the time of the adjustment. This provision is intended to comply with Treasury Regulation Sections 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(m)(2) and (4).

4.4. Curative Allocations. The allocations required under Section 4.3(a) through (c), (e) and (f) (the “Regulatory Allocations”) are intended to comply with certain requirements of the Treasury Regulations. It is the intent of the Members that, to the extent possible, all Regulatory Allocations shall be offset either with other Regulatory Allocations or with special allocations of other items of Company income, gain, loss or deduction pursuant to this Section 4.4. Therefore, notwithstanding any other provisions of this Article IV, the Regulatory Allocations shall be taken into account in allocating items of income, gain, loss, deduction and credit among the Members such that, to the extent possible, the net amount of allocations of such items and the Regulatory Allocations to each Member shall be equal to the net amount that would have been allocated to each Member if the Regulatory Allocations had not occurred and all Company items were allocated pursuant to Section 4.2, Section 10.2(a)(iv) and Section 10.2(a)(v).

4.5. Income Tax Allocations.

(a) Except as otherwise provided in this Section 4.5, for federal, state and local income tax purposes each item of income, gain, loss and deduction of the Company shall be allocated to the Members in the same manner as such items are allocated for book purposes pursuant to this Article IV.

(b) In accordance with Code Section 704(c) and the Treasury Regulations thereunder, income, gain, loss, and deduction with respect to any property contributed to the capital of the Company shall, solely for tax purposes, be allocated among the Members so as to take account of any variation between the adjusted basis of such property to the Company for federal income tax purposes and its initial Value (computed in accordance with the definition of Value) using the remedial allocation method permitted by Treasury Regulation Section 1.704- 3(d).

(c) In the event the Value of any Company Asset is adjusted pursuant to subparagraph (ii) of the definition of Value, subsequent allocations of income, gain, loss, and deduction with respect to such Asset shall take account of any variation between the adjusted basis of such Asset for federal income tax purposes and its Value in the same manner as under Code Section 704(c) and the Treasury Regulations thereunder.

(d) Any items of loss or deduction attributable to property contributed by a Member shall to the extent of an amount equal to the excess of (A) the federal income tax basis of such property at the time of its contribution over (B) the Value of such property at such time, be allocated in its entirety to such contributing Member and the tax basis of such property for purposes of computing the amounts of all items allocated to any other Member (including a transferee of the contributing Member) shall be equal to its Value.

(e) Allocations pursuant to this Section 4.5 are solely for federal, state, and local income taxes and shall not affect, or in any way be taken into account in computing, any Member’s Capital Account or share of Profits, Losses, other items, or distributions pursuant to any provision of this Agreement.

4.6. Other Allocation Rules.

(a) For purposes of determining the Profits, Losses, or any other items allocable to any period, Profits, Losses, and any such other items shall be determined on a daily, monthly, or other basis, as determined by the Managing Member using any permissible method under Code Section 706 and the Treasury Regulations thereunder.

(b) The Members are aware of the income tax consequences of the allocations made by this Article IV and Section 10.2(a) and hereby agree to be bound by the provisions of this Article IV and Section 10.2(a) in reporting their shares of Company income and loss for income tax purposes, unless otherwise required by law or the IRS.

(c) The Company shall not report any portion of the Facility Debt as “recourse” debt for purposes of Code Section 752 or as Member Nonrecourse Debt. The Company shall allocate 100% of the “excess” Nonrecourse Liabilities of the Company for purposes of Treasury Regulation Section 1.752-3(a)(3) in accordance with how the Base Case Model sets forth that the deductions attributable to such remaining Nonrecourse Liabilities will be allocated among the Members, taking into account the allocations required under Section 4.5 above.

(d) To the extent permitted by Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-2(h)(3), the Managing Member shall endeavor to treat distributions of Available Cash Flow as having been made from the proceeds of a Nonrecourse Liability or a Member Nonrecourse Debt only to the extent that such distributions would cause or increase an Adjusted Capital Account Deficit for any Member.

(b) The foregoing obligations shall not apply to the tax treatment or tax structure of the transactions contemplated hereby and each Member (and any employee, representative, or agent of any Member) may disclose to any and all Persons, without limitation of any kind, the tax treatment and tax structure of the transactions contemplated hereby and all other materials of any kind (including opinions or other tax analysis) that are provided to any Member relating to such tax treatment and tax structure (all such information that may be disclosed being the “Tax Information”). However, any such Tax Information 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 transactions contemplated hereby 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 issued under the Code and shall be construed in a manner consistent with such purpose. For purposes of this provision, the Tax Information includes only those facts that may be relevant to understanding the purported or claimed U.S. federal income tax treatment or tax structure of the transactions contemplated hereby and, to eliminate any doubt, therefore specifically does not include information that either reveals or standing alone or in the aggregate with other information so disclosed tends of itself to reveal or allow the recipient of the information to ascertain the identity of any Company, any Member or the Class B Equity Investor (or potential member), or any other third parties involved in any of the transactions contemplated hereby or any other potential transactions with any of the foregoing.

(c) Except as otherwise permitted by this Section 7.7, no Member shall include in a press release or otherwise disclose (other than as required to be included in a filing to any bank, insurance or financial industry regulatory authority having jurisdiction over such Member, its affiliates, permitted transferees, any security exchange or the Securities Exchange Commission or as required by Applicable Law) the name of any Member as an equity investor or potential equity investor without the prior written consent of such Member which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld.

(e) If any Member is required at any time to make any regulatory filing (other than a filing to any bank, insurance or financial industry regulatory authority having jurisdiction over such Member or its affiliates) that identifies by name, or otherwise relates specifically to, any other Member, then such Member shall submit an advance draft of the relevant portions of such regulatory filing to such other Member. Such other Member shall have the right to provide comments to such regulatory filing as it relates to such other Member, and the Member making such filing shall incorporate or accommodate, prior to submitting such filing, such comments.

(A) the liquidator shall use all commercially reasonable efforts to obtain the best possible price and may sell any or all of the Company’s, and the Facility Company’s Assets (subject to any and all restrictions to which the Company or the Facility Company is subject, including restrictions under Applicable Laws or any Permitted Encumbrances), including to the Members at such price, but in no event lower than the Fair Market Value thereof; and

(B) with respect to all of the Company’s or the Facility Company’s Assets that have not been sold, the Values of such Assets shall be determined pursuant to subparagraph (ii) of the definition of Value;

[***] Confidential Treatment Requested

(iv) items of income, gain, loss and deduction (including any such items attributable to the disposition of Assets pursuant to Section 10.2(a)(iii)) for the Taxable Year during which the distribution of liquidation proceeds occurs shall be allocated as follows:

(A) first, after giving effect to the special allocations in Section 4.3, items of gross income, gain and credit arising in connection with the liquidation shall first be allocated to each Member having a negative balance in its Capital Account, in the proportion that such negative balance bears to the total negative balances in the Capital Accounts of all Members, until each Member has been allocated items of gross income and gain equal to any such negative balance in its Capital Account and such deficit balance has thereby been eliminated;

(B) then, any remaining items of income or gain shall be allocated among the Members until the aggregate positive Capital Account balances of the Class B Members and the aggregate positive Capital Account balances of the Class A Members are in proportion to the percentages set forth in Section 4.2(a); and;

(C) finally, any remaining items of income or gain shall be allocated among the Members, 90% to the Class A Members pro rata according to their respective Class A Units and 10% to the Class B Members pro rata according to their respective Class B Units.

(v) After giving effect to all allocations (including those under Section 4.2 and Sections 10.2(a)(iv)), all distributions (including those under Section 5.1) and all Capital Contributions (including those under Section 3.1 and Section 3.2) for all periods, all remaining cash and property (including any Available Cash Flow and liquidation proceeds) shall be distributed to the Members in accordance with the positive balances in their Capital Accounts; and

(vi) Any distribution to the Members in respect of their Capital Accounts pursuant to this Section 10.2 shall be made by the end of the Company taxable year in which a Liquidating Event occurs (or if later, within [***] days after the date of such Liquidating Event).

(b) The distribution of cash or property to a Member in accordance with the provisions of this Section 10.2 constitutes a complete return to the Member of its Capital Contributions and a complete distribution to the Member on account of its Membership Interest and all the Company’s property and constitutes a compromise to which all Members have consented pursuant to Section 18-502(b) of the Act.

10.3. Deficit Capital Accounts. Except as provided in this Section 10.3, no Member shall be obligated to contribute cash to restore a deficit in its Capital Account. Notwithstanding the foregoing, each Member shall have the right by written notice signed by such Member to the Company (with a copy to all other Members) (the “DRO Notice”), at any time and in its sole discretion, to elect to undertake or increase the amount of, a limited deficit restoration obligation,

[***] Confidential Treatment Requested

the amount of which shall be specified in such DRO Notice (which amount is the “DRO Limit”). Nothing contained in this Agreement shall obligate any Member to issue a DRO Notice. A DRO Notice given by a Member pursuant hereto shall be deemed to constitute a duly adopted amendment to this Agreement without any further action by any party, and the corresponding limited deficit restoration obligation for such Member shall be considered part of a Consistent Return for purposes this Agreement. Further, upon the earlier of (a) the point in time at which the absolute value of the deficit balance in a Member’s Capital Account equals or exceeds its DRO Limit and (b) the end of the first Taxable Year during which the absolute value of the deficit balance in a Member’s Capital Account as of the end of such Taxable Year is less than the absolute value of the deficit balance in such Member’s Capital Account as of the end of the immediately preceding Taxable Year, such Member’s DRO Limit shall be automatically decreased (but not increased) at the end of such Taxable Year and each subsequent Taxable Year to an amount equal to the excess, if any, of (1) the absolute value of the deficit balance (if any) in such Member’s Capital Account at the end of such Taxable Year (prior to taking into account such reduction) over (2) the amount that such Member is deemed to be obligated to restore pursuant to the penultimate sentences in Treasury Regulation Sections 1.704-2(g)(1) and 1.704- 2(i)(5) as of the time of such reduction. In the event there is a “liquidation” of a Member’s interest in the Facility Company within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(g), after giving effect to all allocations (including, for the avoidance of doubt, such Member’s share of any Facility Company Minimum Gain and Member Nonrecourse Debt Minimum Gain and the allocations pursuant to Section 10.2), all distributions and all Capital Contributions for all periods, if that Member has a deficit balance in its Capital Account, calculated in accordance with this Agreement and without regard to such Members’ obligation pursuant to this Section 10.3 (except to the extent disregarding such obligation in calculating such amount is inconsistent with law, in which case such Member’s obligation pursuant to this Section 10.3 shall be taken into account in such calculation), then such Member shall be obligated to pay to the Company cash in an amount equal to such deficit balance by the end of the Taxable Year of the Company during which the liquidation of the Facility Company occurs, or if later, within [***] days after the date of such liquidation; provided, however, that the restoration obligation of a Member shall not exceed such Member’s then DRO Limit.

10.4. Termination. On completion of the satisfaction of liabilities and distribution of Assets as provided in this Agreement, the Managing Member (or such other Person or Persons as the Act may require or permit) shall cause the cancellation of the Delaware Certificate and any filings made as provided in Section 2.1 and shall take such other actions as may be necessary to terminate the Company.

ARTICLE XI

INDEMNIFICATION

11.1. Indemnification of Class A Investor Group by the Class B Member. Without in any way limiting any rights the Class A Equity Investor has under the Bloom Guarantee, and subject to the terms and conditions of this Article XI, the Class B Member hereby indemnifies, defends, reimburses and holds harmless the Class A Equity Investor and its parent or subsidiary companies, partners and other Affiliates, and their respective officers, directors, employees, attorneys, contractors and agents (collectively, the “Class A Investor Group”), from and against any and all Damages asserted against, resulting to, imposed upon, or incurred by the Class A

[***] Confidential Treatment Requested

Investor Group, directly or indirectly, by reason of or resulting from any breach by the Class B Member (whether in its capacity as the Class B Member, the Managing Member, the Tax Matters Member or otherwise), the Company or the Administrator or their Affiliates of their respective representations and warranties or covenants contained in this Agreement or any other Transaction Document (collectively, “Class A Investor Claims”). To the extent that any such Damages relating to a Class A Investor Claim remain unpaid after such claim has been made therefor pursuant to this Article XI, any distributions otherwise payable to the Class B Member under this Agreement shall be used to satisfy the obligations of the Class B Member, the Company or their Affiliates, as applicable, hereunder in accordance with Section 5.4.

11.2. Indemnification of Class B Investor Group by the Class A Member. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Article XI, the Class A Member hereby indemnifies, defends, reimburses and holds harmless the Class B Equity Investor and its parent or subsidiary companies, partners and other Affiliates, and their respective officers, directors, employees, attorneys, contractors and agents (collectively, the “Class B Investor Group”), from and against any and all Damages asserted against, resulting to, imposed upon, or incurred by the Class B Investor Group, directly or indirectly, by reason of or resulting from (a) any breach by the Class A Investor Group of their respective representations and warranties or covenants contained in this Agreement, any other relevant Transaction Document (collectively, “Class B Investor Claims”). To the extent that any such Damages relating to a Class B Investor Claim remain unpaid after such claim has been made therefor pursuant to this Article XI, any distributions otherwise payable to a Class A Member under this Agreement shall be used to satisfy the obligations of such Class A Member, the Company or their Affiliates, as applicable, hereunder in accordance with Section 5.4.

11.3. Brokers. Each Member agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the other Member from and against any and all claims, obligations, actions, liabilities, losses, damages, costs or expenses (including court costs and attorneys’ fees) of any kind or character arising out of or resulting from any agreement, arrangement or understanding alleged to have been made by, or on behalf of, the Company or the Administrator or their Affiliates with any broker or finder in connection with this Agreement or the transaction contemplated hereby.

11.4. Limitation on Liability. The indemnification obligations of the parties hereto pursuant to this Article XI shall be subject to the following limitations:

(a) The amount of Damages required to be paid by any party to indemnify any other party pursuant to this Article XI as a result of any Class A Investor Claim or Class B Investor Claim shall be reduced to the extent of any amounts actually received by such other party after the Effective Date pursuant to (i) the Equity Capital Contribution Agreement, (ii) the Bloom Guarantee, and (iii) the terms of the insurance policies (if any) obtained and maintained by the Company, the Facility Company, the Class A Equity Investor or the Class B Equity Investor or any Affiliate thereof covering such claim. In the event an indemnified party or any of its Affiliates receives proceeds from indemnification under the Equity Capital Contribution Agreement, the Bloom Guarantee, or any insurance policy with respect to a Class A Investor Claim or Class B Investor Claim for which it previously received indemnification payments, such indemnified party shall promptly pay to the indemnifying party such proceeds to the extent such proceeds and the previously paid indemnification payments, in the aggregate, exceed the amount of the applicable Class A Investor Claim or Class B Investor Claim.

(b) Damages paid pursuant to this Article XI shall, to the maximum extent permitted under Applicable Law, be treated as an adjustment to the capital contributions of the Members (or otherwise as a non-taxable reimbursement, contribution, or return of capital, as the case may be). To the extent any Damages paid pursuant to this Article XI are includible in the recipient’s gross income, as determined by agreement of the parties, or if there is no agreement, by an opinion of a nationally-recognized tax counsel selected jointly by the parties at a “should” level of comfort that such amount is includable as income of the recipient, solely to the extent the tax liability with respect to the inclusion of such payment of Damages in the income of the recipient is greater than the tax liability of the recipient would have been if there had been no breach giving rise to the payment of Damages, such payment will be grossed-up and paid on an after-tax basis (assuming the then-highest highest marginal federal income tax rate then applicable to corporations). In the event an indemnified party is entitled to claim an item of loss or deduction, credit or other tax benefit with respect to an item that gives rise to the receipt of an indemnity payment, such tax benefit shall be taken into account for purposes of determining the amount of the indemnification payment and, to the extent payment has been made to an indemnified party prior to the period in which such tax benefit was claimed, the indemnified party shall promptly repay the indemnifying party an amount equal to the present value of such loss or deduction, credit or other tax benefit (in each case, assuming then-highest marginal federal income tax rate then applicable to corporations).

(c) The indemnification obligations of the parties pursuant to this Agreement shall be limited to actual Damages and shall not include special, incidental, consequential, indirect, punitive, or exemplary Damages (including lost profits and damages for a lost opportunity); provided, that any incidental, consequential, indirect, punitive, or exemplary Damages recovered by a third party (including Governmental Entities) against a Person entitled to indemnity pursuant to this Article XI shall be included in the Damages recoverable under such indemnity; and provided, further, that the loss of the ITC shall not be considered as special, incidental, consequential, indirect, punitive or exemplary damages and shall be included in the Damages recoverable under this indemnity.

(d) No member of the Class A Investor Group or the Class B Investor Group may receive compensation for Damages suffered by such Person to the extent that such Damages are attributable to (a) the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Person or (b) the breach of any representation or warranty by such Person in this Agreement or any other Investment Document to the extent such representation or warranty was false when made.

11.5. Procedure for Indemnification. After receipt by an indemnified party under Section 11.1, Section 11.2, Section 11.3 or Section 11.4 of notice of the commencement of any action, such indemnified party shall, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against an indemnifying party under such Section, give written notice to the indemnifying party of the commencement thereof. The failure to promptly notify the indemnifying party shall not relieve it of any liability that it may have to any indemnified party with respect to such action; provided that, to the extent that any such failure to provide prompt notice is responsible for an increase in the indemnity obligations of the indemnifying party, the indemnifying party shall not be responsible for any such increase. In case any such action shall be brought against an

indemnified party and it shall give written notice to the indemnifying party of the commencement thereof, the indemnifying party shall be entitled to participate therein and, to the extent that it may wish, to assume the defense thereof with counsel reasonably satisfactory to such indemnified party. If the indemnifying party elects to assume the defense of such action, the indemnified party shall have the right to employ separate counsel at its own expense and to participate in the defense thereof. If the indemnifying party elects not to assume (or fails to assume) the defense of such action, the indemnified party shall be entitled to assume the defense of such action with counsel of its own choice, at the expense of the indemnifying party. If the action is asserted against both the indemnifying party and the indemnified party and (i) there is a conflict of interests which renders it inappropriate for the same counsel to represent both the indemnifying party and the indemnified party or (ii) such action could reasonably be expected to result in the imposition of criminal liability, the indemnifying party shall be responsible for paying for separate counsel for the indemnified party; provided, however, that if there is more than one indemnified party and it is practical for all such parties to be represented by common counsel, the indemnifying party shall not be responsible for paying for more than one separate firm of attorneys to represent the indemnified parties, regardless of the number of indemnified parties. If the indemnifying party elects to assume the defense of such action, (a) no compromise or settlement thereof may be effected by the indemnifying party without the indemnified party’s written consent (which shall not be unreasonably withheld) unless the sole relief provided is monetary damages that are paid in full by the indemnifying party and (b) the indemnifying party shall have no liability with respect to any compromise or settlement thereof effected without its written consent (which shall not be unreasonably withheld) unless the indemnifying party has failed to defend such indemnified party against such action. If this Section 11.5 conflicts with the contest provisions in Section 8.7 with respect to any contest or claim relating to taxes, Section 8.7 shall govern.

11.6. Exclusivity. Subject to Section 5.4, the parties hereto agree that, in relation to any breach, default, or nonperformance of any representation, warranty, covenant, or agreement made or entered into by the Class B Member (whether in its capacity as the Class B Member, the Managing Member, the Tax Matters Member or otherwise) pursuant to this Agreement, any other Investment Document, the ASA or any certificate, instrument, or document delivered pursuant hereto or thereto or arising out of the transactions contemplated herein or therein, the only relief and remedy available to the other parties hereto in respect of said breach, default, or nonperformance shall be Damages, but only to the extent properly claimable hereunder and as limited pursuant to this Article XI or otherwise hereunder.

11.7. No Right of Contribution. After the Effective Date, the Company shall have no liability to indemnify the Class B Equity Investor on account of the breach of any representation or warranty or the nonfulfillment of any covenant or agreement of the Company; and the Class B Equity Investor shall not have any right of contribution against the Company.

11.8. Entire Agreement. Article XI of this Agreement constitutes the entire agreement and understanding of the parties with respect to indemnification hereunder.

ARTICLE XII

GENERAL PROVISIONS

12.1. Offset. Whenever the Company (or another Person on behalf of the Company) is to pay or distribute any sum to any Member, any amounts then owed by such Member or its Affiliate to the Company (as determined in writing to the satisfaction of the other Members) shall be deducted from such sum before payment.

12.2. Notices. Any notice or other communication to be given hereunder shall be in writing and shall be delivered by hand (including, without limitation, by express courier against written receipt) or sent by registered prepaid first class mail, facsimile copy or by email transmission to the persons or addresses specified below (or such other Person or address as a Member may previously have notified all other Parties in writing for that purpose). A notice or other communication shall be deemed to have been served when delivered by hand at that address or received by email or facsimile copy (provided the sender can and does provide evidence of successful transmission), or, if sent by registered prepaid first class mail as aforesaid, on the date delivered. Any notice or other communication received on a day that is not a Business Day or later than 5:00 p.m. on a Business Day shall be deemed to be received on the next Business Day. The names and addresses for the service of notices referred to in this Section 12.2 are:

Any Party may change the address or number to which notices to such Party are to be delivered by providing notice of such change to each other Party in the manner set forth above. Any notice to be provided to the Company shall be provided to the Managing Member at the address set forth in this Section.

12.3. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, each bearing the signatures of one or more Members. 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 hereto transmitted by facsimile or portable document format (PDF) shall be deemed to be their original signatures for all purposes.

12.4. Governing Law and Severability. This Agreement shall be deemed made and prepared and shall be construed and interpreted in accordance with the internal laws of the State of Delaware, without regard to the principles of conflicts of laws thereof which may require the application of the law of another jurisdiction. 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.

12.5. Entire Agreement. This Agreement, including any Schedules and Exhibits, together with the other Investment Documents, constitutes the entire agreement among the Members regarding the terms and operations of the Company, 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.

12.6. Effect 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 Investment 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 Investment 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 Investment 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.

12.7. Amendment or Modification. Except as otherwise provided herein, this Agreement may be amended or modified from time to time only by a written instrument executed by all Members. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, for so long as any indebtedness or Obligations remain outstanding under the Financing Documents, each Member hereby acknowledges that the consent of certain parties to the Financing Documents, such as the Facility Lenders, may be required in connection with the Facility Company taking certain actions. Any such consent shall be obtained in writing from the Facility Lenders and any other required parties to the Financing Documents as and when required pursuant to the terms of the Financing Documents.

12.8. Binding Effect. Subject to the restrictions on Transfers set forth in this Agreement, this Agreement is binding on and inures to the benefit of the Members and their respective legal representatives, permitted successors and permitted assigns.

12.9. Further Assurances. In connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby, each Member shall execute and deliver any additional documents and instruments and perform any additional acts that may be necessary or appropriate to effectuate and perform the provisions of this Agreement and those transactions contemplated here, including all filing, recording, publishing and other acts appropriate to comply with all requirements for the operation of a limited liability company under the laws of all jurisdictions where the Company shall conduct business.

12.10. Jurisdiction; Service of Process. Each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably consents to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of the State of New York and of any federal court located in the Southern District of New York in connection with any suit, action or other proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby; agrees to waive any objection to venue in the State and County 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 11.3 hereof.

12.11. Limitation on Liability. NO CLAIMS SHALL BE MADE BY ANY PARTY HERETO OR ANY OF ITS AFFILIATES, DIRECTORS, EMPLOYEES, ATTORNEYS OR AGENTS AGAINST ANY OTHER PARTY HERETO OR ANY OF ITS AFFILIATES, DIRECTORS, EMPLOYEES, ATTORNEYS OR AGENTS FOR ANY SPECIAL, INDIRECT, CONSEQUENTIAL OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES (WHETHER OR NOT THE CLAIM THEREFORE IS BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT, DUTY IMPOSED BY LAW OR OTHERWISE), IN CONNECTION WITH, ARISING OUT OF OR IN ANY WAY RELATED TO THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED BY THIS AGREEMENT OR THE OTHER INVESTMENT DOCUMENTS OR ANY ACT OR OMISSION OR EVENT OCCURRING IN CONNECTION THEREWITH; AND EACH PARTY HEREBY WAIVES, RELEASES AND AGREES NOT TO XXX UPON ANY SUCH CLAIM FOR ANY SUCH SPECIAL, INDIRECT, CONSEQUENTIAL OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, WHETHER OR NOT ACCRUED AND WHETHER OR NOT KNOWN OR SUSPECTED TO EXIST IN ITS FAVOR, PROVIDED, HOWEVER, THAT AT ANY TIME (a) IF AN ITC IS RECAPTURED FROM THE FACILITY COMPANY BECAUSE THE CLASS B MEMBER OR ITS AFFILIATE, OR ANY FACILITY ENTITY BREACHES ANY REPRESENTATION, WARRANTY OR COVENANT, THE VALUE OF THE ITC THAT IS RECAPTURED SHALL NOT CONSTITUTE CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES AND (b) IF AN ITC IS RECAPTURED FROM THE FACILITY COMPANY BECAUSE THE CLASS A MEMBER OR ITS AFFILIATE BREACHES ANY REPRESENTATION, WARRANTY OR COVENANT, THE VALUE OF THE ITC THAT IS RECAPTURED SHALL NOT CONSTITUTE CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES.

THE OBLIGATIONS OF THE PARTIES UNDER THIS AGREEMENT ARE OBLIGATIONS OF THE PARTIES ONLY AND NO RECOURSE SHALL BE AVAILABLE UNDER THIS AGREEMENT AGAINST ANY OFFICER, DIRECTOR, MANAGER, MEMBER, PARTNER, OR AFFILIATE OF ANY PARTY.
