1. Background

(a) The Issuer proposes to enter into a Loan Agreement dated as of October 1, 2006 (the “Loan Agreement”) with the Company pursuant to which the Issuer will make a loan to the Company to finance a portion of the costs of the acquisition, construction and improvement of certain solid waste disposal facilities consisting of multi-digester biogas production and gas conditioning facilities (collectively the “Facilities”) for the recycling of cattle manure and the production of renewable natural gas. In order to accomplish the financing, the Issuer proposes to issue and sell the bonds identified above (the “Bonds”) to the Underwriter which will in turn make a limited public offering thereof.

(b) The Bonds will be issued pursuant to a Resolution adopted by the Issuer on October 14, 2006 (the “Resolution”) and will be secured under the Issuer’s Trust Indenture dated as of October 1, 2006 (the “Indenture”) to Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as trustee (the “Trustee”). The Bonds will be payable solely out of repayments of the loan to be made by the Company under the Loan Agreement and from other funds available to the Trustee under the Indenture for the payment of the Bonds. All of the Issuer’s rights under the Loan Agreement (except for certain of the Issuer’s rights with respect to fees, expenses, indemnity and certain reserved rights) will be assigned to the Trustee as security for the payment of the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the Bonds. The Bonds will mature, bear interest and be subject to the other terms and provisions discussed in the Final Limited Offering Memorandum referred to below. The terms of the Bonds have been approved by the Company.

(c) To provide funds for portions of the Project not being financed with the proceeds of the Bonds, the Company will enter into a Support Agreement (the “Support Agreement”) with Environmental Power Corporation (“EPC”) dated as of October 1, 2006 in which EPC will agree to advance funds to the Company from time to time to fund any shortfall in cash available to pay costs of construction of the Facilities.

(d) Concurrently with the issuance of the Bonds, the Company will deliver to Trustee a Guarantee Agreement dated as of October 1, 2006 (the “Guarantee”) among the Trustee, the Company and the subsidiary guarantors named therein (the “Subsidiary Guarantors”). Each of the Subsidiary Guarantors is (or, as of the Closing (as defined in Section 2, below) will be) wholly owned by the Company and was formed for the exclusive purpose of owning and operating its respective Facility.

(e) The Guarantee will be secured by the Company’s pledge of its ownership interest in the Subsidiary Guarantors and the Subsidiary Guarantors’ mortgages on substantially all of their assets. The Company and the Subsidiary Guarantors will enter into a Collateral Trust Agreement dated as of October 1, 2006 (the “Collateral Trust Agreement”) with Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as collateral trustee (the “Collateral Trustee”), which sets forth the terms on which the Collateral Trustee receives, holds, administers, maintains, enforces and distributes the collateral, the proceeds of any collateral and any liens on the collateral.

(f) In order to induce the Issuer and the Underwriter to enter into this Bond Purchase Agreement and to sell and purchase the Bonds, the Company has joined in this Bond Purchase Agreement.

(g) It is intended that the proceeds of the sale of the Bonds, excluding accrued interest, are to be applied to pay the costs of the Facilities as set forth in the Loan Agreement and the Indenture.

The charges, accruals and reserves on the books of the Company and each Subsidiary Guarantor in respect of taxes and other governmental charges are adequate to the best knowledge of the Company.

(l) Environmental Matters. The Company and its Subsidiary Guarantors are each in compliance in all material respects with all Federal, state and local laws and regulations (i) now applicable to the Company or any Subsidiary Guarantor, or (ii) which, to the best knowledge of the Company will be applicable (or, if not in compliance with such laws and regulations referred to in this clause (ii), the Company or such Subsidiary Guarantor is taking appropriate action diligently pursued to be in compliance therewith on a timely basis or to be exempt from compliance), relating to pollution control and environmental contamination, including all laws and regulations governing the generation, use, collection, treatment, storage, transportation, recovery, removal, discharge or disposal of hazardous materials, except to the extent that the failure to comply or take such action would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

(m) Copyrights, Patents, Trademarks and Licenses, etc. The Company and the Subsidiary Guarantors own or are licensed or otherwise have the right to use all of the patents, trademarks, trade names, copyrights, contractual franchises, authorizations and other rights that are reasonably necessary for the operation of their respective businesses as currently conducted (other than where the failure to so own, be licensed or have the right to use would reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect). To the best knowledge of the Company, no product, process, method, substance, part or other material now employed, or now contemplated to be employed, by the Company or any Subsidiary Guarantor infringes upon any rights held by any other Person, except for any such infringement that would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

(d) any event or condition which, in the reasonable judgment of the Underwriter, renders untrue or incorrect in any material respect the information contained in the Limited Offering Memorandum or which requires that such Limited Offering Memorandum be amended or supplemented in order to make the statements therein in light of the circumstances

-12-

under which they were made, not misleading in any material respect; provided that the Issuer, the Company and the Underwriter will use their best efforts to amend or supplement the Limited Offering Memorandum to reflect, to the satisfaction of the Underwriter, such changes in or additions to the information contained in the Limited Offering Memorandum.

If the Underwriter terminates this Bond Purchase Agreement because any of the conditions specified in Section 7 shall not have been fulfilled at or before the Closing or because one of the events specified in this Section 8 has occurred, such termination shall not result in any liability on the part of the Issuer, the Company or the Underwriter except as set forth in Section 10.

9. Indemnity.

(a) The Company will indemnify and hold harmless the Issuer and the Underwriter and each of their officers, directors, employees and agents against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities to which any of them may become subject, under the Securities Act or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) (i) arise out of or are based upon (A) an allegation or determination that registration of a security under the Securities Act should have been made in connection with the offering of the Bonds or an indenture should have been qualified under the Trust Indenture Act; or (B) an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact in the Limited Offering Memorandum, or any amendment thereof or supplement thereto, or (ii) arise out of or are based upon the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact necessary to make the statements therein not misleading under the circumstances under which they were made, and will reimburse any indemnified party for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by them in connection with investigating or defending any such action or claim as such expenses are incurred; provided, however, that the Company shall not be liable in any such case to the Underwriter or any officer, director, employee or agent of the Underwriter to the extent that any such loss, claim, damage or liability arises out of or is based upon an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission made in the Limited Offering Memorandum under the caption “UNDERWRITING”.

(b) Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under subsection (a) above of notice of any claim or the commencement of any action, such indemnified party shall, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against the indemnifying party under such subsection, notify the indemnifying party in writing of the claim or commencement of the action; but the omission so to notify the indemnifying party shall not relieve the indemnifying party from any liability which it may have to the indemnified party otherwise than under such subsection except to the extent that any rights, remedies or defenses available to the indemnifying party are prejudiced thereby. In case any such claim or action shall be brought against an indemnified party and it shall notify the indemnifying party thereof, the indemnifying party shall be entitled to participate therein and, to the extent that it shall wish, to assume the defense thereof, with counsel reasonably satisfactory to such indemnified party (who shall not, except with the consent of the indemnified party (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld), be counsel to the indemnifying party), and, after notice from the indemnifying party to such indemnified party of its election so to assume the defense thereof, the indemnifying party shall not be liable to such indemnified party under such subsection for any legal expenses of other counsel or any other

-13-

expenses, in each case subsequently incurred by such indemnified party, in connection with the defense thereof other than reasonable costs of investigation. The indemnifying party shall not be liable for any settlement of any such action effected without its consent, but if settled with the consent of the indemnifying party or if there is a final judgment for the plaintiff in any such action, the indemnifying party will indemnify and hold harmless any indemnified party from and against any loss or liability by reason of such settlement or judgment. The indemnity agreement in this section shall survive delivery of the Bonds and shall survive any investigation made by or on behalf of the Issuer, the Underwriter or the Company.

(c) If the indemnification provided for in this Section 9 is unavailable to or insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified party in respect of any losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) referred to therein, then the indemnifying party shall, in lieu of indemnifying such indemnified party, contribute to the amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result of such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the Company on the one hand and the Underwriter on the other from the offering of the Bonds. If, however, the allocation provided by the immediately preceding sentence is not permitted by applicable law or if the indemnified party failed to give the notice required under subsection (b) above, then the indemnifying party shall contribute to such amount paid or payable by such indemnified party in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only such relative benefits but also the relative fault of the Company on the one hand and the Underwriter on the other in connection with the statements or omissions which resulted in such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof), as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative benefits received by the Company on the one hand and the Underwriter on the other shall be deemed to be in the same proportion as the total net proceeds from the offering (before deducting expenses) received by the Company bear to the total underwriting discount and commissions received by the Underwriter. The relative fault shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the Company or the Underwriter and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such untrue statement or omission. The Company and the Underwriter agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this subsection (c) were determined by pro rata allocation or by any other method of allocation which does not take account the equitable considerations referred to above in this subsection (c). The amount paid or payable by an indemnified party as a result of the losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) referred to above in this subsection (c) shall be deemed to include any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such indemnified party in connection with investigating or defending any such action or claim. Notwithstanding the provisions of this subsection (c), the Underwriter shall not be required to contribute any amount in excess of the amount by which the total public offering price of the Bonds exceeds the amount of any damages which the Underwriter has otherwise been required to pay by reason of such untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission. No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution with respect to damages arising out of such misrepresentation from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation.

-14-

(d) The obligations of the Company under this Section 9 shall be in addition to any liability or indemnification obligation which the Company may have under the Loan Agreement or otherwise and shall extend, upon the same terms and conditions, to each person, if any, who controls the Underwriter or the Issuer within the meaning of the Securities Act.

10. Expenses. Whether or not the Bonds are sold by the Issuer to the Underwriter (unless such sale shall be prevented at the Closing by the Underwriter’s default), the Underwriter shall be under no obligation to pay any expenses incident to the performance of the Issuer’s or the Company’s obligations hereunder. The Issuer understands and agrees that all expenses and costs of the Issuer incident to issuing the Bonds (including, without limitation, the financing, acceptance and approval fees of the Issuer and the Unit, the fees and expenses of Bond Counsel, the fees and expenses of Counsel to the Underwriter, the fees and expenses of Counsel to the Trustee, the fees and expenses of SJH, the fees and expenses of Beck, the expenses and costs for the preparation, printing, photocopying, execution and delivery of the Bonds, the Limited Offering Memorandum, the Transaction Documents and all other agreements and documents contemplated hereby, the fees and expenses of consultants, accountants and rating agencies, the initial fee of the Trustee, the fees and expenses of counsel to the Trustee, the fees and disbursements, including counsel fees, incurred in connection with qualifying the Bonds for sale under the securities laws of various jurisdictions and of preparing Blue Sky Memoranda) shall be paid from the proceeds of the Bonds to the extent available and to the extent insufficient for such purposes, or if the Bonds are not issued, by the Company. All reasonable out-of-pocket expenses of the Underwriter incident to issuing the Bonds shall be paid by the Company, including DTC and CUSIP fees and reasonable fees and expenses of counsel, but not including the Underwriter’s travel and personal expenses.

11. Execution in Counterparts. This Bond Purchase Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, all of which taken together shall be one and the same instrument.
