Such escrowed distributions shall be released from such escrow account to the Class B Members promptly following receipt of all such Required Governmental Authorizations.

(b)    Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Section 5.03(a):

(i)    Nonrecourse Deductions shall be allocated to the Members in the same proportions as the allocations of Net Profits and Net Loss were made for the Fiscal Year or other applicable period pursuant to Section 5.03(a).

(ii)    Member Nonrecourse Deductions attributable to Member Nonrecourse Debt shall be allocated to the Members bearing the Economic Risk of Loss for such Member Nonrecourse Debt as determined under Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-2(b)(4). If more than one Member bears the Economic Risk of Loss for such Member Nonrecourse Debt, the Member Nonrecourse Deductions attributable to such Member Nonrecourse Debt shall be allocated among the Members according to the ratio in which they bear the Economic Risk of Loss. This Section 5.03(b)(ii) is intended to comply with the provisions of Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-2(i) and shall be interpreted consistently therewith.

(iii)    Notwithstanding any other provision hereof to the contrary, if there is a net decrease in Minimum Gain for an allocation period (or if there was a net decrease in Minimum Gain for a prior allocation period and the Company did not have sufficient amounts of income and gain during prior periods to allocate among the Members under this Section 5.03(b)(iii), items of income and gain shall be allocated to each Member in an amount equal to such Member’s share of the net decrease in such Minimum Gain (as determined pursuant to Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-2(g)(2)). This Section 5.03(b)(iii) is intended to constitute a minimum gain chargeback under Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-2(f) and shall be interpreted consistently therewith.

(iv)    Notwithstanding any provision hereof to the contrary except Section 5.03(b)(iii) (dealing with Minimum Gain), if there is a net decrease in Member Nonrecourse Debt Minimum Gain for an allocation period (or if there was a net decrease

in Member Nonrecourse Debt Minimum Gain for a prior allocation period and the Company did not have sufficient amounts of income and gain during prior periods to allocate among the Members under this Section 5.03(b)(iv)), items of income and gain shall be allocated to each Member in an amount equal to such Member’s share of the net decrease in Member Nonrecourse Debt Minimum Gain (as determined pursuant to Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-2(i)(4)). This Section 5.03(b)(iv) is intended to constitute a partner nonrecourse debt minimum gain chargeback under Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-2(i)(4) and shall be interpreted consistently therewith.

(v)    Notwithstanding any provision hereof to the contrary except Section 5.03(b)(i) and Section 5.03(b)(ii), no losses or other items of expense shall be allocated to any Member to the extent that such allocation would cause such Member to have a deficit Capital Account balance (or increase any existing deficit Capital Account balance) at the end of the allocation period in excess of the amount such Member is required to restore pursuant to Section 12.02(a)(iv). All losses and other items expense in excess of the limitation set forth in this Section 5.03(b)(v) shall be allocated to the Members who do not have a deficit Capital Account balances in excess of the amount such Member is required to restore pursuant to Section 12.02(a)(iv) in proportion to their relative positive Capital Accounts but only to the extent that such losses and other items of expense do not cause any such Member to have a deficit Capital Account balance in excess of the amount such Member is required to restore pursuant to Section 12.02(a)(iv).

(vi)    If any Member unexpectedly receives any adjustments, allocations or distributions described in Regulations Sections 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d)(4), (5), or (6) resulting in a Capital Account deficit for such Member in excess of the amount such Member is required to restore pursuant to Section 12.02(a)(iv), items of income and gain will be specially allocated to such Member in any amount and manner sufficient to eliminate, to the extent required by the Treasury Regulations, such Capital Account deficit of the Member as quickly as possible; provided, however, that an allocation pursuant to this Section 5.03(b)(vi) shall be made only if and to the extent that such Member would have a deficit Capital Account balance in excess of the amount such Member is required to restore pursuant to Section 12.02(a)(iv) after all other allocations provided for in this Article 5 have been tentatively made as if this Section 5.03(b)(vi) were not in this Agreement. The items of income or gain to be allocated will be determined in accordance with Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d). This subsection (vi) is intended to comply with Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d) and will be applied and interpreted in accordance with such Regulations.

(vii)    The allocations set forth in Section 5.03(b)(i) through Section 5.03(b)(vi) (the “Regulatory Allocations”) are intended to comply with certain requirements of Treasury Regulation Sections 1.704-1(b) and 1.704-2. The Regulatory Allocations may not be consistent with the manner in which the Members intend to distribute the cash of the Company or allocate Company income or loss. Accordingly, the Managing Member is hereby authorized to allocate items of income, gain, loss, and deduction to the Members so as to prevent the Regulatory Allocations from distorting the manner in which cash is distributed among the Members. In general, the Members

anticipate that this will be accomplished by specially allocating other items of income, gain, loss and deduction to the Members so that, to the extent possible, the net amount of such allocations and the Regulatory Allocations to the Members shall be equal to the net amount that would have been allocated among the Members if the Regulatory Allocations had not occurred. However, the Managing Member shall have discretion to accomplish this result in any reasonable manner, and in exercising this discretion, the Managing Member shall take into account future Regulatory Allocations under Section 5.03(b) that, although not yet made, are likely to offset other Regulatory Allocations previously made thereunder.

(c)    To the maximum extent possible, except as otherwise provided in this Section 5.03(c), all items of Company income, gain, loss, and deduction for federal income tax purposes shall be allocated among the Members for such purposes in the same manner in which the corresponding items computed for Capital Account purposes are allocated pursuant to Section 5.03(a) and Section 5.03(b). Income, gain, loss, and deduction with respect to property contributed to the Company by a Member or revalued pursuant to clause (b) of the definition of “Book Value” shall be allocated among the Members in a manner that takes into account the variation between the adjusted tax basis of such property and its Book Value, as required by Section 704(c) of the Code and Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-1(b)(4)(i).

5.04    Varying Interests. All items of income, gain, loss, deduction or credit shall be allocated, and all distributions shall be made, to the Persons shown on the records of the Company to have been Members as of the last day of the period for which the allocation or distribution is to be made. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event a Member Disposes of a Membership Interest during a Fiscal Year, the Net Profits or Net Loss of the Company, and each item of income, gain, loss, credit, and deduction, allocated to such Member and its Assignee for such Fiscal Year or other applicable period will be made between such Member and its Assignee in accordance with Code Section 706 using any convention permitted by Code Section 706 and selected by the Managing Member.

5.05    Amounts Withheld. The Company is authorized to withhold from payments and distributions to the Members and to pay over to any federal, state, or local Governmental Authority any amounts required to be so withheld pursuant to the Code or any provisions of any Law and shall allocate such amounts to the Members with respect to which such amounts were withheld. All amounts withheld pursuant to the Code or any provisions of any Law with respect to any payment, distribution, or allocation to the Company or the Members shall be treated for all purposes under this Agreement as amounts paid or distributed pursuant to this Article 5 to the Members with respect to which such amount was withheld. To the extent operation of the foregoing provisions of this Section 5.05 would create a negative balance in a Member’s Capital Account (or increase the amount by which such Capital Account balance is negative), such Member shall indemnify the other Members and the Company for such withholding.

6.01    Generally. The business and affairs of the Company shall be managed by the Managing Member, and NEP Member is hereby appointed by the Members as the Managing Member of the Company. The Class A Member(s) shall have the right to designate a successor Managing Member; provided that, in the event that there shall be more than one Class A Member, the Managing Member shall be selected by the holders of a majority of the issued and outstanding Class A Units; provided, further, that the Person appointed to serve as successor Managing Member must be an Affiliate of NEP. Except as provided in Section 6.03, Section 6.04 or as otherwise expressly provided herein, the Managing Member shall have full and exclusive power and authority on behalf of the Company to conduct, direct, and exercise control over all activities of the Company, to manage and administer the business and affairs of the Company, and to do or cause to be done any and all acts considered by the Managing Member to be necessary or appropriate to conduct the business of the Company, including the authority to bind the Company in making contracts and incurring obligations in the Company’s name in the course of the Company’s business, without the need for approval by or any other consent from any other Member. Except to the extent that a Member is also the Managing Member or authority is delegated from the Managing Member to such Member, no Member will have any authority to bind the Company or to transact any business for the Company. The Managing Member may delegate to one or more Persons all or any part of its power and authority as Managing Member hereunder, including, subject to Section 6.03(b)(iv) and Section 6.04, pursuant to any management services agreement the Company may enter into with any Affiliate of the Company, except for such power and authority with respect to Major Decisions or other matters expressly requiring a vote by or consent of the Members pursuant to this Agreement, which will be expressly retained by the Members.

6.02    Standard of Care.

(a)    Except for those duties expressly set forth in this Agreement, to the fullest extent permitted by Section 18-1101(c) of the Act, neither the Managing Member nor any other Member shall have any duties or liabilities, including fiduciary duties, to the Company or any other Member, and the provisions of this Agreement, to the extent that they restrict or eliminate the duties and liabilities, including fiduciary duties, of the Managing Member or any other Member otherwise existing at law or in equity, are agreed by the Members to modify, to such extent, such duties and liabilities of the Managing Member and such other Members. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing herein shall eliminate or limit (i) the express contractual provisions set forth herein or (ii) the implied contractual covenant of good faith and fair dealing.

(b)    Each Member acknowledges its express intent, and agrees with each other Member for the mutual benefit of all the Members, that, except as expressly set forth in this Agreement:

(i)    to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law, no Member, in its capacity as Member, nor any of such Member’s or any of its Affiliates’ respective directors, officers, stockholders, managers, members, partners, employees, or agents shall

have any fiduciary duty to the Company, any other Member, or any other Person in connection with the business and affairs of the Company or any consent or approval given or withheld pursuant to this Agreement; provided, however, that nothing herein shall eliminate the implied contractual covenant of good faith and fair dealing; and

(ii)    the provisions of this Section 6.02 will apply for the benefit of each Member, and no standard of care, duty, or other legal restriction or theory of liability shall limit or modify the right of any Member to vote in the manner determined by such Member in its sole and absolute discretion, with or without cause, subject to such conditions as it shall deem appropriate, and without taking into account the interests of, and without incurring liability to, the Company, any other Member, or any officer or employee of the Company.

(c)    To the maximum extent permitted by applicable Law but except as expressly set forth in this Agreement, each Member hereby releases and forever discharges each other Member and its Affiliates from all liabilities that such other Member or its Affiliates might owe, under the Act or otherwise, to the Company, the releasing Member, or its Affiliates on the ground that any decision of such other Member to grant or withhold any vote, consent, or approval constituted the breach or violation of any standard of care, any fiduciary duty, or any other legal restriction or theory of liability applicable to such other Member or its Affiliates; provided, however, that nothing herein shall eliminate any Member’s liability for any act or omission that constitutes a bad faith violation of the implied contractual covenant of good faith and fair dealing. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, nothing in this Section 6.02 shall limit or waive any claims against, actions, rights to sue, other remedies, or other recourse of the Company, any Member, or any other Person may have against any Member for a breach of contract claim relating to any binding agreement, including this Agreement.

(d)    Notwithstanding the foregoing or any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, whenever the Managing Member makes a determination or takes or declines to take (or causes or permits a subsidiary of the Company to take or decline to take) any other action, in its capacity as such as opposed to in its individual capacity, then, unless another express standard is provided for in this Agreement, the Managing Member shall make such determination or take or decline to take (or cause or permit a subsidiary of the Company to take or decline to take) such other action in good faith and shall not be subject to any other or different standards (including fiduciary standards) imposed by this Agreement. A determination or other action or inaction will conclusively be deemed to be in “good faith” for all purposes of this Agreement, if the Managing Member in making such determination or taking or declining to take (or causing or permitting a subsidiary of the Company to take or decline to take) such other action (i) reasonably believes that the determination or other action or inaction is in the best interests of the Company and its subsidiaries and (ii) does not take or decline to take (or cause or permit a subsidiary of the Company to take or decline to take) such action with intent to benefit any other business now owned or hereafter acquired by the Managing Member or any of its Affiliates to the detriment of the Company and its subsidiaries.

(e)    Without limiting the foregoing, the Managing Member shall, and shall carry out its obligations hereunder, in accordance with all Laws and requirements of this Agreement.

The advisors, consultants, and other representatives retained by the Company or any of its subsidiaries in connection with any matter subject to this Section 6.04 shall be selected by the Class B Members holding a majority of the issued and outstanding Class B Units, in their reasonable discretion, and the reasonable, documented out-of-pocket fees, costs, and expenses of any such advisors, consultants, or representatives shall be borne by the Company. The Class A Member hereby agrees to pursue any claims for indemnification or other remedies available on behalf of itself, any other Member, the Company or any of its subsidiaries or any other Purchaser Indemnified Parties (as defined in the Asset Purchase Agreement) under or in respect of the Asset Purchase Agreement and to the extent any indemnification or other payments thereunder (“APA Payments”) are made to the Class A Member or any of its Affiliates, the Class A Member shall pay to the Class B Member its portion of such APA Payments to the same extent as the Class B Member would have received such APA Payments if the Company had received such APA Payments and distributed them in the same manner as Build Out Payments are required to be distributed pursuant to Section 5.01(b), and for all purposes of this Agreement such payments shall be deemed distributions under Section 5.01(b). Without limiting the foregoing, the Asset Purchase Agreement shall be

considered an Affiliate Transaction for purposes of this Section 6.04 and the Class B Member shall have the same rights hereunder with respect to the Asset Purchase Agreement as it would if the Company rather than the Class A Member were the “Purchaser” thereunder.

6.05    Officers. The Managing Member may from time to time as it deems advisable appoint officers of the Company to act on behalf of the Company and assign in writing titles (including president, vice president, secretary, and treasurer) to any such person, and any such assignment of such title shall constitute the delegation to such person of the authorities and duties that are normally associated with such title. Each such officer shall hold office until his successor shall have been duly appointed or until his death, resignation, or removal. Any such officer may be removed by the Managing Member at any time for any reason, with or without cause, in its sole discretion. Any new or replacement officer shall be duly appointed in writing by the Managing Member. All officers shall serve at the discretion of and subject to the direction of the Managing Member. The Managing Member shall be responsible for the actions or inactions of the officers of the Company to the same extent as the Managing Member would be responsible if such actions and inactions were taken by the Managing Member.

6.06    Business Opportunities.

(a)    Except with respect to (i) expansions of existing projects of the Company or its subsidiaries and (ii) potential repowerings of existing projects of the Company or its subsidiaries, each Member, including the Managing Member, and each Affiliate of a Member may engage in and possess interests in business ventures of any and every type and description, independently or with others, including ones in competition with the Company, with no obligation to offer to the Company, any other Member, or any Affiliate of another Member the right to participate therein. Subject to Section 6.03(b)(iv), the Company may transact business with any Member or Affiliate thereof, and no Affiliate of a Member shall be restricted in its right

to conduct, individually or jointly with others, for its own account any business activities. No Member or its Affiliates shall have any duty or obligation, express or implied, fiduciary or otherwise, to account to, or to share the results or profits of such business activities with, the Company, any other Member or any Affiliate of any other Member, by reason of such business activities. The provisions of this Section 6.06 constitute an agreement to modify or eliminate, as applicable, fiduciary duties pursuant to the provisions of Section 18-1101 of the Act.

(b)    In furtherance of the foregoing, but subject to Section 6.03, each Member:

(i)    renounces in advance each and every interest or expectancy it or any of its Affiliates might be considered to have under the Act, at common law or in equity, by reason of its membership in the Company in any business opportunity, or in any opportunity to participate in any business opportunity, in any business or industry in which any other Member or its Affiliates now or in the future engages, that is presented to the Company, to any other Member, to any of their respective Affiliates, or to any present or future partner, member, director, officer, manager, supervisor, employee, agent, or representative of the Company or of any other Member or any of their respective Affiliates; and

(ii)    waives and consents to the elimination of any fiduciary or other duty, including any duty of loyalty, that any other Member or any of its Affiliates might be considered to owe to the waiving Member, at common law or in equity, by reason of the waiving Member’s membership in the Company, to offer to the Company or the waiving Member or any of its Affiliates any such business opportunity, or in any such opportunity to participate in any such business opportunity.

(c)    The Company:

(i)    renounces in advance each and every interest or expectancy it might be considered to have under the Act, at common law, or in any business opportunity, or in any opportunity to participate in any business opportunity, in any business or industry in which any Member or any of its Affiliates now or in the future engages, which is presented to such Member or any of its Affiliates or to any present or future partner, member, director, officer, manager, supervisor, employee, agent, or representative of such Member or any of its Affiliates; and

(ii)    waives and consents to the elimination of any fiduciary or other duty, including any duty of loyalty, that any Member or any of its Affiliates might be considered to owe to the Company, at common law or in equity, by reason of such Member’s membership in the Company, to offer to the Company any such business opportunity, or in any such opportunity to participate in any such business opportunity.

6.07    Insurance Coverage. The Managing Member shall cause the Company to acquire and maintain casualty, general liability (including product liability), property damage, and other types of insurance as the Managing Member may deem necessary or appropriate, consistent with applicable industry standards for the industry in which the Company and its

subsidiaries operate and as otherwise maintained by, or required to by maintained by, the Company and its subsidiaries for any project owned or operated by the Company or its subsidiaries.

6.08    Exculpation and Indemnification.

(a)    To the fullest extent permitted by Law, each Member (including the Managing Member), each officer of the Company, and the Affiliates of the Members, and each of their respective officer, directors, stockholders, partners, members, managers, employees, Affiliates, representatives, and agents, and their respective successors, heirs, and legal and personal representatives (collectively, the “Covered Persons”) shall have no liability to the Company, any Member, or any other Person and is hereby exculpated from any liability arising out of or relating to the Company, its business, assets, properties, subsidiaries, or liabilities or any act or omission performed or omitted by such Covered Person in relation thereto; provided, however, that the foregoing shall not eliminate any Covered Person from liability resulting from fraud, gross negligence, or the willful misconduct of such Covered Person, a breach of the express provisions this Agreement, or a bad faith breach of the implied contractual covenant of good faith and fair dealing. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this Section 6.08 shall be deemed to impose fiduciary duties on any Member or otherwise modify or limit the standard of care set forth in Section 6.02.

(b)    To the fullest extent permitted by Law, the Company shall indemnify and hold harmless each Covered Person and each former Covered Person from and against any and all Claims in which such Covered Person may be involved, or threatened to be involved, as a party or otherwise, arising out of or relating to the Company, its business, assets, properties, subsidiaries, or liabilities or any act or omission performed or omitted by such Covered Person in relation thereto; provided, however, that no Covered Person or former Covered Person shall be entitled to indemnification under this Section 6.08(b) with respect to any Claim (i) resulting from fraud, gross negligence, or the willful misconduct of such Covered Person or former Covered Person, a breach of the express provisions of this Agreement, or a bad faith breach of the implied contractual covenant of good faith and fair dealing or (ii) initiated by such Covered Person or former Covered Person unless such Claim (or part thereof) (A) was brought to enforce such Covered Person’s rights to indemnification hereunder or (B) was authorized or consented to by the Managing Member in connection with Claims brought against such Covered Person by Persons that are not the Company (or any of its subsidiaries) or Affiliates of the Company or any of its subsidiaries. Expenses incurred by a Covered Person or former Covered Person in defending any Claim shall be paid by or on behalf of the Company in advance of the final disposition of such Claim upon receipt by the Company of an undertaking by or on behalf of such Covered Person to repay such amount if it shall be ultimately determined that such Covered Person is not entitled to be indemnified by the Company as authorized by this Section 6.08(b).

(c)    The Company acknowledges and agrees that the obligation of the Company under this Agreement to indemnify or advance expenses to any Covered Person or former Covered Person for the matters covered hereby shall be the primary source of indemnification and advancement for such Covered Person or former Covered Person in connection therewith and any obligation on the part of any other indemnitor under any other

agreement to indemnity or advance expenses to such Covered Person or former Covered Person shall be secondary to the Company’s obligation and shall be reduced by any amount that such Covered Person may collect as indemnification or advancement from the Company. Subject to the foregoing, the Company shall be subrogated to the rights of such Covered Person or former Covered Person against, and shall be entitled to seek contribution from, any third party, including any insurance company, that is not an Affiliate of any Member (or any insurance policy covering such Member or its Affiliates) to recover the amount of such indemnification (or such portion thereof as to which the Company shall be entitled to contribution) after the Covered Person or former Covered Person shall have been fully and completely indemnified (whether pursuant to this Agreement or otherwise) in respect of the Claim which gave rise to such indemnification. Any such Covered Person or former Covered Person shall fully cooperate with the Company, at the Company’s expense, in its efforts to enforce against any such third party the rights to which it is so subrogated.

(d)    The Company, as an indemnifying party from time to time, agrees that, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law, its obligation to indemnify Covered Persons under this Agreement shall apply to any amounts expended by any other indemnitor under any other agreement in respect of indemnification or advancement of expenses to any Covered Person in connection with any Claims to the extent such amounts extended by such other indemnitor are on account of any unpaid indemnity amounts hereunder.

(e)    The right of any Covered Person to the indemnification provided herein is cumulative of, and in addition to, any and all rights to which such Covered Person may otherwise be entitled by contract or as a matter of Law or equity, and extend to such Covered Person’s successors, assigns and legal representatives.

(f)    If this Section 6.08 or any portion hereof shall be invalidated on any ground by any court of competent jurisdiction or properly constituted arbitration panel, then the Company shall nonetheless, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law, indemnify and hold harmless each Person entitled to be indemnified pursuant to this Section 6.08 as to liabilities to the full extent permitted by any applicable portion of this Section 6.08 that shall not have been invalidated.

7.01    General Restrictions on Transfers.

(a)    Except as otherwise provided in Section 4.03 or in this Article 7, and other than Dispositions by a Member to one or more of its Affiliates, (a) no Class A Member may Dispose of all or any portion of its Class A Units without the prior written consent of GEPIF; and (b) no Class B Member may Dispose of all or any portion of its Class B Units without the prior written consent of NEP Member; provided, however, that (i) each Class A Member shall be permitted to pledge all or a portion of its Membership Interest in, and distributions with respect to, its Class A Units in connection with a Class A Permitted Loan Financing, and each Member agrees to provide reasonable cooperation in connection therewith (it being agreed by the

Members that any foreclosure under such Class A Permitted Loan Financing on pledged Class A Units shall not be deemed to violate this Section 7.01(a)); and (ii) each Class B Member shall be permitted to pledge all or a portion of its Membership Interest in, and distributions with respect to, its Class B Units in connection with a Class B Permitted Loan Financing, and each Member agrees to provide reasonable cooperation in connection therewith (it being agreed by the Members that any foreclosure under such Class B Permitted Loan Financing on pledged Class B Units shall not be deemed to violate this Section 7.01(a)). Notwithstanding the foregoing, but subject to Section 7.01(b), at any time after expiration of the Call Option Period (or the Call Option Period Extension, if applicable), each of the Class B Members may freely Dispose of all or any portion of its Membership Interest to any Person, other than an Excluded Party, without the consent of NEP Member. Each Member agrees that it shall provide the Managing Member and the other Members with prior written notice of any proposed Disposition or Encumbrances of its Membership Interests. Any attempted Disposition or Encumbrance of a Membership Interest other than in strict accordance with this Article 7 shall be, and is hereby declared, null and void ab initio.

(b)    An Assignee may be admitted to the Company as a Member, with the Membership Interest so Disposed of to such Assignee, only if such Disposition is effected in accordance with Section 7.01(a) and, if applicable, Section 7.02 or Section 7.03. In addition to the requirements set forth in Section 7.01(a), any admission of an Assignee as a Member shall also be subject to the following requirements, and such Disposition (and admission, if applicable) shall not be effective unless such requirements are complied with; provided that the Managing Member, in its sole and absolute discretion, may waive any of the following requirements (it being understood and agreed that the Disposition of the Class B Units to GEPIF by NEP Member in accordance with and pursuant to the Purchase Agreement and Section 4.03 hereof shall satisfy all requirements set forth in this Agreement to effect such Disposition and admit GEPIF as a Member):

(i)    Disposition Documents. The following documents must be delivered to the Managing Member and must be satisfactory, in form and substance, to the Managing Member (provided that, in the case of a Disposition pursuant to a foreclosure under a Class A Permitted Loan Financing or Class B Permitted Loan Financing, the documents under clause (B) below shall be required to be executed and delivered by only the Assignee of the Disposing Member and all expenses required to be paid under clause (ii) below may be paid by the applicable Assignee):

The Company will provide such invoice as soon as practicable after the amount due is determined but in no event later than ninety (90) days thereafter.

(iii)    No Release. No Disposition of a Membership Interest shall effect a release of the Disposing Member from any liabilities to the Company or the other Members arising from events occurring prior to the Disposition.

(iv)    No Violation of Laws.

(v)    PTP. No Disposition shall be permitted if such Disposition would result in the Company being treated as a publicly traded partnership subject to tax as an association for U.S. federal income tax purposes.

(c)    Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, other than Sections 7.02, 7.03, and 7.04, no Member may Dispose of all or any portion of its Membership Interest to the extent (i) the transferee is, during the period that any tax credits allocated or allowed, or that would otherwise be allocable or allowable, to any Member pursuant to Section 45 of the Code (or any successor provision) may be claimed with respect to the output of any Company asset, a Person who is a Related Party; (ii) the Disposition would, with respect to any Member who is not the transferring Member, result in any recapture, loss, unavailability, delay, or disallowance of all or a portion of any credits otherwise available pursuant to Section 45 of the Code or Section 48 of the Code (or, in each case, any successor provision) allocated or allowed, or that would otherwise be allocable or allowable, to such Member; or (iii) the Disposition would cause any of the assets held by a Project Entity to become “tax-exempt use property” within the meaning of Section 168(h) of the Code during any applicable recovery period.

7.02    Call Option.

(a)    During the period beginning on the Flip Date and continuing until the first (1^st) anniversary of the Flip Date (the “Call Option Period”), NEP Member shall have the right, but not the obligation, to acquire all, but not less than all, of the outstanding Class B Units at a purchase price that implies an Internal Rate of Return to GEPIF of seven and three quarters percent (7.75%), measured from the Effective Date to the Call Option Closing Date (the “Call Option Purchase Price”), upon the terms and conditions set forth in this Section 7.02 (the “Call Option”).

If some or all of the consideration set forth in the Call Option Notice consists of Non-Voting NEP Common Units, the issuance price for each such Non-

Voting NEP Common Unit will be specified as the 15-day VWAP of the NEP Common Units on the date of the Call Option Notice. The Class B Members shall have five (5) days following receipt of the Call Option Notice to notify NEP Member in writing that the Call Option Purchase Price shall be payable in cash (if any) up to a maximum of thirty percent (30%) of the total Call Option Purchase Price (with the balance to be paid in Non-Voting NEP Common Units), unless the Call Option Notice specified a higher percentage payable in cash.

(d)    If, at any time during the last six (6) months of the Call Option Period, NEP Member has not exercised the Call Option pursuant to Section 7.02(a) and over any period of forty-five (45) days during such six-month period the NEP Common Units yield an average, last quarter annualized paid dividend yield above eight percent (8.0%), NEP Member may extend the Call Option Period for an additional one (1) year following the last day of the Call Option Period (the “Call Option Period Extension”) by providing written notice thereof to the Class B Members.

If some or all of the consideration set forth in such notice consists of Non-Voting NEP Common Units, the issuance price for each such Non-Voting NEP Common Unit will be specified as the 15-day VWAP of the NEP Common Units on the date of such notice. To exercise its right set forth herein, NEP Member shall, prior to expiration of the Call Option Period Extension and at least ten (10) days and no more than fifteen (15) days in advance of such exercise, deliver to the Class B Members written notice containing the same information set forth in Section 7.02(b) with respect to the Call

Option Notice. The Class B Members shall have five (5) days following receipt of such notice to notify NEP Member in writing that the Call Option Extension Purchase Price shall be payable in cash (if any) up to a maximum of thirty percent (30%) of the total Call Option Extension Purchase Price (the “Maximum Requested Cash Portion”) (with the balance to be paid in Non-Voting NEP Common Units), unless such notice specified a higher percentage payable in cash.

(e)    On the Call Option Closing Date, (i) the Class B Members will convey all right, title, and interest in and to the Class B Units, free of all Encumbrances (other than those created by this Agreement or securities Laws), to NEP Member or its nominee; (ii) NEP Member or its nominee will pay the cash portion of the Call Option Purchase Price (or Call Option Extension Purchase Price, as applicable) to the Class B Members (or their nominee(s)) by wire transfer of immediately available funds; and (iii) NEP shall satisfy the remaining portion of the Call Option Purchase Price (or Call Option Extension Purchase Price, as applicable) by issuing Non-Voting NEP Common Units pursuant to the Multiparty Settlement Agreement (as defined in the Margin Loan Agreement), and, in connection therewith, NEP shall instruct, and shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause, its Transfer Agent to record the issuance of such Non-Voting NEP Common Units to such Class B Members (or their nominee(s));provided, however, that the Call Option Closing Date may be delayed by the Class B Members, at their option, for a period not to exceed seven (7) Business Days to the extent, in the Class B Members’ reasonable determination, there is or will be an Issuer Trading Suspension (as defined in the Margin Loan Agreement) or a Facility Adjustment Event (as defined in the Margin Loan Agreement) relating to events or circumstances caused by or within the control of NEP or its Affiliates that exists or will exist on such Call Option Closing Date. No fractional Non-Voting NEP Common Units will be issued. The Members agree that the Call Option Closing, whether pursuant to Section 7.02(a) or pursuant to Section 7.02(d), shall be subject to (A) the receipt of all applicable Required Governmental Authorizations and (B) until the Credit Agreement Payment in Full, there being sufficient cash available to the Class B Member at the Call Option Closing for the Class B Member to pay off the sum of the outstanding indebtedness on the Call Option Closing Date under the Credit Agreement (as defined in the Purchase Agreement) (provided that the amount of such indebtedness shall not exceed the amount borrowed thereunder on the Effective Date plus additional amounts owed thereunder pursuant to the terms of the Credit Agreement as in effect on the date hereof), plus the amounts required to be paid by the Class B Member constituting amounts owed by the Class B Member as termination payments and unpaid amounts under any swap, cap, forward, future or other derivative transaction entered into in connection with the hedging of interest rates under the Credit Agreement, and minus amounts required to be paid to the Class B Member constituting amounts owed by the counterparty under any such swap, cap, forward, future or other derivative transaction as termination payments and unpaid amounts under any such swap, cap, forward, future or other derivative transaction. In the event any such Required Governmental Authorizations shall not have been obtained or such sufficient cash is not available by the date that is otherwise scheduled to be the Call Option Closing Date, then such Call Option Closing Date shall automatically be delayed until such date as all such Required Governmental Authorizations have been obtained and sufficient cash is available and, for the avoidance of doubt, the Call Option Purchase Price (or Call Option Extension Purchase Price) set forth in the Call Option Notice shall be calculated from the Effective Date until such date as all such Required Governmental Authorizations and sufficient cash have been obtained.

Each Class B Member hereby agrees that, in connection with the Call Option Closing, such Class B Member (or its Affiliates) shall borrow under such Margin Loan Agreement the maximum amount available thereunder, to the extent necessary to repay, and shall use such borrowings, together with any cash received as part of the Call Option Purchase Price or Call Option Extension Purchase Price and any other cash or cash equivalents of the Class B Member, to repay, subject to the immediately succeeding sentence, all of such Class B Member’s then outstanding indebtedness and all other indebtedness pursuant to which the Class B Units are Encumbered (other than indebtedness incurred pursuant to the Margin Loan Agreement). To the extent that the proceeds from the Margin Loan Agreement, together with any cash paid as a portion of the Call Option Purchase Price or Call Option Extension Purchase Price and all cash on hand of the Class B Member, are insufficient to repay in full all indebtedness of the Class B Member (and any other indebtedness pursuant to which the Class B Units are Encumbered), then the Class B Members shall use their reasonable best efforts to obtain additional or substitute financing on commercially reasonable terms in such amount as is sufficient to repay in full the amount of all indebtedness and other obligations (including, without limitation, swap, cap, forward, future, or other derivative transactions of the nature described above) of the Class B Members or pursuant to which the Class B Units are Encumbered, such that all Encumbrances on the Class B Units shall be released on or prior to the Call Option Closing. Following consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Section 7.02, the Managing Member will amend this Agreement to reflect the withdrawal of the Class B Members and the transfer of the Class B Units effective as of the Call Option Closing.

(f)    In the event that NEP Member shall be required pursuant to the Purchase Agreement to pay to GEPIF a Commitment Fee (as defined in the Purchase Agreement), the payment of such Commitment Fee shall be disregarded in calculating the Internal Rate of Return of GEPIF for purposes of determining the Call Option Purchase Price (or Call Option Extension Purchase Price, as applicable).

(g)    Each Member agrees to cooperate fully with the Company, the Managing Member, and NEP to effect the Call Option Closing, including using its reasonable best efforts to obtain all applicable Governmental Authorizations, terminating and releasing all Encumbrances on the Class B Units (other than those created by this Agreement or securities Laws), and entering into any agreements and instruments and executing any certificates or other documents the Managing Member reasonably deems necessary or appropriate to consummate the Disposition of the Class B Units. The Class B Members and NEP agree to use commercially reasonable efforts to coordinate with the Transfer Agent to record the issuance of Non-Voting NEP Common Units to such Class B Members (or their nominee(s)).

(h)    Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Section 7.02(a), with respect to any and all Class B Units held by GEPIF, so long as (i) Global Energy & Power Infrastructure II Advisors, L.L.C. or any of its Affiliates Controls the Blocker Parent, (ii) the Blocker has engaged in no business activities other than its organizational activities, acquiring, accepting, owning, and holding the equity interests of GEPIF, which equity interests constitute all of the issued and outstanding equity interests of GEPIF, and activities incidental thereto, and has no material liabilities, and (iii) GEPIF has engaged in no business activities other than its organizational activities, acquiring, financing, accepting, owning, and holding the Class B Units

and activities incidental thereto, and has no material liabilities, then, unless GEPIF provides written notice to NEP Member within five (5) days of receipt of the Call Option Notice that it does not wish for NEP Member (or its permitted assignee) to purchase all of the issued and outstanding equity interests of Blocker (collectively, the “Blocker Interests”) pursuant to the Call Option, NEP Member (or its permitted assignee) shall purchase all of the Blocker Interests rather than the outstanding Class B Units held by GEPIF, on the same terms and subject to the same conditions as set forth herein for the purchase of Class B Units pursuant to the Call Option, and Blocker Parent will convey all right, title, and interest in and to the Blocker Interests (and indirectly the equity interests of GEPIF, together with the Class B Units held by GEPIF), free and clear of all Encumbrances (other than restrictions on transfer created by this Agreement or applicable securities Laws), to NEP Member or its permitted assignee. Unless the Class B Member exercises the option not to have the Blocker Interests purchased as set forth in this Section 7.02(h), references elsewhere in this Section 7.02 to Class B Units or to a Class B Member selling Class B Units shall be to the Blocker Interests and Blocker Parent, respectively, and the other terms of this Section 7.02 shall apply mutatis mutandis, and the parties hereto will take all actions necessary to effect the Call Option Closing as the purchase of the Blocker Interests rather than the purchase of the Class B Units.

(i)    Until the Credit Agreement Payment in Full, the Class B Member agrees that it shall not incur indebtedness for borrowed money under the Credit Agreement or otherwise, in excess of the amount of indebtedness borrowed under the Credit Agreement on the Effective Date plus the amount of indebtedness for borrowed money subsequently incurred under the Credit Agreement pursuant to the terms of the Credit Agreement as in effect on the date hereof or (provided that the aggregate amount of all indebtedness for borrowed money of the Class B Member under the Credit Agreement following the effectiveness of any such changes in terms shall not exceed the Maximum Amount immediately prior to such changes) on terms not less favorable to the Class A Members, plus amounts under any swap, cap, forward, future, or other derivative transactions of the nature described in Section 7.02(e), plus $1,000,000.00. The Class B Member further agrees that it shall not take any actions or omit to take any actions which result in Encumbrances on the Class B Units securing debt for borrowed money in an aggregate amount in excess of $1,000,000.00, other than Encumbrances that secure the obligations of the Class B Member under the Credit Agreement or any related loan documents and under any swap, cap, forward, future or other derivative transactions of the nature described in Section 7.02(e).

(j)    The NEP Member or its nominee shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from the Call Option Purchase Price (or Call Option Extension Purchase Price, as applicable) the amounts each NEP Member or its nominee is required to deduct and withhold under any applicable Law, and amounts so withheld shall be deemed paid for all purposes of this Agreement. Any Taxes deducted or withheld from any payments pursuant this Section 7.02(i) shall be remitted to the applicable Governmental Authority and shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to the Class B Members, or Blocker Parent, as applicable, provided that, if on the Call Option Closing Date, the Class B Members or Blocker Parent, as applicable, shall deliver to the NEP Member or its nominee, withholding certificates pursuant to Treasury Regulations Section 1.1445-2(b)(2) and, in the case of a sale of the Class B Units, IRS Notice 2018-29, that the Class B Members, or Blocker Parent (or if any such entity is a disregarded entity, its regarded owner) is not a non-U.S. person, the NEP Member or its nominee

shall not withhold any amounts under Section 1445 or Section 1446(f) of the Code unless there is a change in Law prior to the Call Option Closing Date that requires such withholding.

7.03    Change of Control of NEP.

(a)    At any time following the announcement of a proposed Change of Control of NEP (or the entry into any agreement providing therefor), the Class B Members shall have the right, but not the obligation, to require NEP Member to acquire all, but not less than all, of the outstanding Class B Units at a purchase price that implies an Internal Rate of Return to the Class B Members, measured from the Effective Date to the Change of Control Closing Date and with the assumption that GEPIF shall have remained a Class B Member throughout the entirety of such period, of ten percent (10.0%) (the “Change of Control Purchase Price”), upon the terms and conditions set forth in this Section 7.03 (the “NEP Change of Control Option”). NEP Member may not assign its obligation to purchase such Class B Units pursuant to this Section 7.03 to any Person other than NEP or a subsidiary thereof.

(b)    To exercise the rights of the Class B Members pursuant to Section 7.03(a), the Class B Members shall, at least ten (10) days and no more than fifteen (15) days in advance of such exercise, deliver to NEP Member written notice executed by all such Class B Members of such exercise (the “Change of Control Notice”) containing (i) the date (the “Change of Control Closing Date”) on which the acquisition of the outstanding Class B Units is to be consummated (the “Change of Control Closing”), and (ii) the Change of Control Purchase Price. NEP Member may pay the Change of Control Purchase Price, at its option, in either cash, Non-Voting NEP Common Units, or a combination of cash and Non-Voting NEP Common Units; provided, however, that (y) the NEP LPA Amendment (as that term is used in the Purchase Agreement) shall be in full force and effect, without any modification thereto, and (z) the Registration Rights Agreement shall be in effect with respect to the NEP Common Units into which the Non-Voting NEP Common Units are convertible, subject to and in accordance with the terms of the NEP Partnership Agreement. If some or all of the Change of Control Purchase Price consists of Non-Voting NEP Common Units, the issuance price for each such Non-Voting NEP Common Unit will be specified as the 15-day VWAP of the NEP Common Units on the date that is the earlier of the announcement of a proposed Change of Control of NEP or the entry into a definitive agreement providing for a transaction that if consummated would constitute a Change of Control of NEP.

(c)    On the Change of Control Closing Date, (i) the Class B Members will convey all of the Class B Units, free of all Encumbrances (other than those created by this Agreement or securities Laws), to NEP Member or its nominee; (ii) NEP Member or its nominee (or, if the foregoing do not pay, NEP) will pay the cash portion, if any, of the Change of Control Purchase Price to the Class B Members (or their nominee(s)) by wire transfer of immediately available funds; and (iii) NEP shall satisfy the remaining portion, if any, of the Change of Control Purchase Price by issuing Non-Voting NEP Common Units no later than three (3) Business Days after the Change of Control Closing Date, and, in connection therewith, NEP shall instruct, and shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause, its Transfer Agent to record the issuance of such Non-Voting NEP Common Units to such Class B Members (or their nominee(s)). No fractional Non-Voting NEP Common Units will be issued. The Members agree

that the Change of Control Closing shall be subject to the receipt of all applicable Required Governmental Authorizations. In the event any such Required Governmental Authorizations shall not have been obtained by the date that is otherwise scheduled to be the Change of Control Closing Date, then such Change of Control Closing date shall automatically be delayed until such date as all such Required Governmental Authorizations have been obtained and, for the avoidance of doubt, the Change of Control Purchase Price set forth in the Change of Control Notice shall be calculated from the Effective Date until such date as all such Required Governmental Authorizations have been obtained. Each Class B Member hereby agrees that, in connection with the Change of Control Closing, such Class B Member (or its Affiliates) shall borrow under such Margin Loan Agreement the maximum amount available thereunder, to the extent necessary to repay, and shall use such borrowings, together with any cash received as part of the Change of Control Purchase Price, to repay, subject to the immediately succeeding sentence, all of such Class B Member’s then outstanding indebtedness and all other indebtedness pursuant to which the Class B Units are Encumbered (other than indebtedness incurred pursuant to the Margin Loan Agreement). To the extent that the proceeds from the Margin Loan Agreement, together with any cash paid as a portion of the Change of Control Purchase Price and all cash on hand of the Class B Member, are insufficient to repay in full all indebtedness of the Class B Member (and any other indebtedness pursuant to which the Class B Units are Encumbered), then the Class B Members shall use their reasonable best efforts to obtain additional or substitute financing in such amount as is sufficient to repay in full the amount of all indebtedness of the Class B Members or pursuant to which the Class B Units are Encumbered, such that all Encumbrances on the Class B Units shall be released on or prior to the Change of Control Closing. Following consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Section 7.03, the Managing Member will amend this Agreement to reflect the withdrawal of the Class B Members and the transfer of the Class B Units effective as of the Change of Control Closing.

(d)    Each Member agrees to cooperate fully with the Company, the Managing Member, and NEP to effect the Change of Control Closing, including using its reasonable best efforts to obtain all applicable Governmental Authorizations, terminating and releasing all Encumbrances on the Class B Units (other than those created by this Agreement or securities Laws), and entering into any agreements and instruments and executing any certificates or other documents the Managing Member reasonably deems necessary or appropriate to consummate the Disposition of the Class B Units. The Class B Members and NEP agree to use commercially reasonable efforts to coordinate with the Transfer Agent to record the issuance of Non-Voting NEP Common Units to such Class B Members (or their nominee(s)).

(e)    Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Section 7.03(a), with respect to any and all Class B Units held by GEPIF, so long as (i) Global Energy & Power Infrastructure II Advisors, L.L.C. or any of its Affiliates Controls the Blocker Parent, (ii) the Blocker has engaged in no business activities other than its organizational activities, acquiring, accepting, owning, and holding the equity interests of GEPIF, which equity interests constitute all of the issued and outstanding equity interests of GEPIF, and activities incidental thereto, and has no material liabilities, and (iii) GEPIF has engaged in no business activities other than its organizational activities, acquiring, financing, accepting, owning, and holding the Class B Units and activities incidental thereto, and has no material liabilities, then, unless GEPIF provides

written notice to NEP Member within five (5) days of receipt of the Change of Control Notice that it does not wish for NEP Member (or its permitted assignee) to purchase all of the Blocker Interests pursuant to the NEP Change of Control Option, NEP Member (or its permitted assignee) shall purchase all of the Blocker Interests rather than the outstanding Class B Units held by GEPIF, on the same terms and subject to the same conditions as set forth herein for the purchase of Class B Units pursuant to the NEP Change of Control Option, and Blocker Parent will convey all right, title, and interest in and to the Blocker Interests (and indirectly the equity interests of GEPIF, together with the Class B Units held by GEPIF), free and clear of all Encumbrances (other than restrictions on transfer created by this Agreement or applicable securities Laws), to NEP Member or its permitted assignee. Unless the Class B Member exercises the option not to have the Blocker Interests purchased as set forth in this Section 7.03(e), references elsewhere in this Section 7.03 to Class B Units or to a Class B Member selling Class B Units shall be to the Blocker Interests and Blocker Parent, respectively, and the other terms of this Section 7.03 shall apply mutatis mutandis, and the parties hereto will take all actions necessary to effect the Change of Control Closing as the purchase of the Blocker Interests rather than the purchase of the Class B Units.

7.04    Change of Control of a Class B Member.

 

(a)    If at any time there is an announcement of a proposed Change of Control of a Class B Member (or the entry into any agreement providing therefor), then following such announcement of a proposed Change of Control of a Class B Member (or such entry into any agreement providing therefor), NEP Member shall have the right, but not the obligation, to acquire all, but not less than all, of the outstanding Class B Units held by such Class B Member (in such capacity, the “COC Member”) at a purchase price that implies an Internal Rate of Return to such COC Member of seven and three quarters percent (7.75%), measured from the Effective Date to the Class B COC Closing Date (the “Class B COC Purchase Price”), upon the terms and conditions set forth in this Section 7.04 (the “Class B COC Option”). NEP Member may not assign its right to purchase the applicable Class B Units pursuant to this Section 7.04 to any Person other than NEP or a subsidiary thereof; provided, however, that, in the event of any such assignment, NEP Member and NEP shall remain subject to their respective obligations set forth in this Section 7.04 upon any exercise of the Class B COC Option.

(b)    To exercise the Class B COC Option, NEP Member shall, at least ten (10) days and no more than fifteen (15) days in advance of such exercise, deliver to the COC Member written notice of such exercise (the “Class B COC Notice”) containing (i) the date (the “Class B COC Closing Date”) on which the Class B COC Option is to be consummated (the “Class B COC Closing”), (ii) the Class B COC Purchase Price, and (iii) the form of consideration to be used to pay the Class B COC Purchase Price, which shall be either cash, Non-Voting NEP Common Units, or a combination of cash and Non-Voting NEP Common Units, subject to Section 7.04(c), and the respective proportions thereof to be paid to the COC Member (or its nominee); provided, however, that NEP Member may exercise the Class B COC Option only if (A) the NEP Common Units are listed or admitted to trading on the Nasdaq Stock Market or the New York Stock Exchange, (B) the NEP Common Units into which the Non-Voting NEP Common Units are convertible, subject to and in accordance with the terms of the NEP Partnership Agreement, would not, immediately following conversion thereof, exceed more than

twenty-two and a half percent (22.5%) of the publicly traded class of NEP Common Units then outstanding (inclusive of those NEP Common Units into which the Non-Voting NEP Common Units are convertible), and (C) NEP must have an effective registration statement on file with the Commission covering resales of the underlying NEP Common Units to be received upon conversion of the Non-Voting NEP Common Units; provided, further, that NEP Member may exercise the Class B COC Option only if (y) the NEP LPA Amendment (as that term is used in the Purchase Agreement) shall be in full force and effect, without any modification thereto, and (z) the Registration Rights Agreement shall be in effect with respect to the NEP Common Units into which the Non-Voting NEP Common Units are convertible, subject to and in accordance with the terms of the NEP Partnership Agreement.

(c)    Subject to Section 7.04(b), NEP Member may pay the Class B COC Purchase Price, at its option, in either cash, Non-Voting NEP Common Units, or a combination of cash and Non-Voting NEP Common Units; provided, however, that cash may not constitute more than fifty percent (50%) of the total Class B COC Purchase Price paid to the Class B Members (or their nominee(s)). If some or all of the consideration set forth in the Class B COC Notice consists of Non-Voting NEP Common Units, the issuance price for each such Non-Voting NEP Common Unit will be specified as the 15-day VWAP of the NEP Common Units on the date of the Class B COC Notice. The Class B Members shall have five (5) days following receipt of the Class B COC Notice to notify NEP Member in writing that the Class B COC Purchase Price shall be payable in cash (if any) up to a maximum of thirty percent (30%) of the total Class B COC Purchase Price (with the balance to be paid in Non-Voting NEP Common Units), unless the Class B COC Notice specified a higher percentage payable in cash.

(d)    On the Class B COC Closing Date, (i) the COC Member will convey all of its right, title, and interest in and to such COC Member’s Class B Units, free of all Encumbrances (other than those created by this Agreement or securities Laws), to NEP Member or its nominee; (ii) NEP Member or its nominee will pay the cash portion of the Class B COC Purchase Price to such COC Member (or its nominee) by wire transfer of immediately available funds; and (iii) NEP shall satisfy the remaining portion of the Class B COC Purchase Price by issuing Non-Voting NEP Common Units no later than three (3) Business Days after the Class B COC Closing Date, and, in connection therewith, NEP shall instruct, and shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause, its Transfer Agent to record the issuance of such Non-Voting NEP Common Units to such COC Member (or its nominee). No fractional Non-Voting NEP Common Units will be issued. The Members agree that the Class B COC Closing shall be subject to the receipt of all applicable Required Governmental Authorizations. In the event any such Required Governmental Authorizations and, until the Credit Agreement Payment in Full, there being sufficient cash available to the Class B Member at the Class B COC Closing for the Class B Member to pay off the sum of the outstanding indebtedness on the Class B COC Closing Date under the Credit Agreement (as defined in the Purchase Agreement) (provided that the amount of such indebtedness shall not exceed the amount borrowed thereunder on the Effective Date plus additional amounts owed thereunder pursuant to the terms of the Credit Agreement as in effect on the date hereof), plus the amounts required to be paid by the Class B Member constituting amounts owed by the Class B Member as termination payments and unpaid amounts under any swap, cap, forward, future or other derivative transaction entered into in connection with the hedging of interest rates under the Credit Agreement, and minus amounts required to be

paid to the Class B Member constituting amounts owed by the counterparty under any such swap, cap, forward, future or other derivative transaction as termination payments and unpaid amounts under any such swap, cap, forward, future or other derivative transaction. In the event any such Required Governmental Authorizations shall not have been obtained or such sufficient cash is not available by the date that is otherwise scheduled to be the Class B COC Closing Date, then such Class B COC Closing date shall automatically be delayed until such date as all such Required Governmental Authorizations have been obtained or such sufficient cash is not available and, for the avoidance of doubt, the Class B COC Purchase Price set forth in the Class B COC Notice shall be calculated from the Effective Date until such date as all such Required Governmental Authorizations and sufficient cash have been obtained. Each Class B Member hereby agrees that, in connection with the Class B COC Closing, such Class B Member (or its Affiliates) shall borrow under such Margin Loan Agreement the maximum amount available thereunder, to the extent necessary to repay, and shall use such borrowings, together with any cash received as part of the Class B COC Purchase Price and any other cash or cash equivalents of the Class B Member, to repay, subject to the immediately succeeding sentence, all of such Class B Member’s then outstanding indebtedness and all other indebtedness pursuant to which the Class B Units are Encumbered (other than indebtedness incurred pursuant to the Margin Loan Agreement). To the extent that the proceeds from the Margin Loan Agreement, together with any cash paid as a portion of the Class B COC Purchase Price and all cash on hand of the Class B Member, are insufficient to repay in full all indebtedness of the Class B Member (and any other indebtedness pursuant to which the Class B Units are Encumbered), then the Class B Members shall use their reasonable best efforts to obtain additional or substitute financing on commercially reasonable terms in such amount as is sufficient to repay in full the amount of all indebtedness and other obligations (including, without limitation, swap, cap, forward, future, or other derivative transactions of the nature described above) of the Class B Members or pursuant to which the Class B Units are Encumbered, such that all Encumbrances on the Class B Units shall be released on or prior to the Class B COC Closing. Following consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Section 7.04, the Managing Member will amend this Agreement to reflect the withdrawal of such COC Member and the transfer of such COC Member’s Class B Units effective as of the Class B COC Closing.

(e)    In the event that NEP Member shall be required pursuant to the Purchase Agreement to pay to GEPIF a Commitment Fee (as defined in the Purchase Agreement), the payment of such Commitment Fee shall be disregarded in calculating the Internal Rate of Return of GEPIF for purposes of determining the Class B COC Purchase Price.

(f)    Each Member agrees to cooperate fully with the Company, the Managing Member, and NEP to effect the Class B COC Closing, including using its reasonable best efforts to obtain all applicable Governmental Authorizations, terminating and releasing all Encumbrances on the applicable Class B Units (other than those created by this Agreement or securities Laws), and entering into any agreements and instruments and executing any certificates or other documents the Managing Member reasonably deems necessary or appropriate to consummate the Disposition of the applicable Class B Units. The Class B Members and NEP agree to use commercially reasonable efforts to coordinate with the Transfer Agent to record the issuance of Non-Voting NEP Common Units to the COC Member (or its nominee).

(g)    Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Section 7.04(a), with respect to any and all Class B Units held by GEPIF, so long as (i) Global Energy & Power Infrastructure II Advisors, L.L.C. or any of its Affiliates Controls the Blocker Parent, (ii) the Blocker has engaged in no business activities other than its organizational activities, acquiring, accepting, owning, and holding the equity interests of GEPIF, which equity interests constitute all of the issued and outstanding equity interests of GEPIF, and activities incidental thereto, and has no material liabilities, and (iii) GEPIF has engaged in no business activities other than its organizational activities, acquiring, financing, accepting, owning, and holding the Class B Units and activities incidental thereto, and has no material liabilities, then, unless GEPIF provides written notice to NEP Member within five (5) days of receipt of the Change of Control Notice that it does not wish for NEP Member (or its permitted assignee) to purchase all of the Blocker Interests pursuant to the Class B COC Option, NEP Member (or its permitted assignee) shall purchase all of the Blocker Interests rather than the outstanding Class B Units held by GEPIF, on the same terms and subject to the same conditions as set forth herein for the purchase of Class B Units pursuant to the Class B COC Option, and Blocker Parent will convey all right, title, and interest in and to the Blocker Interests (and indirectly the equity interests of GEPIF, together with the Class B Units held by GEPIF), free and clear of all Encumbrances (other than restrictions on transfer created by this Agreement or applicable securities Laws), to NEP Member or its permitted assignee. Unless the Class B Member exercises the option not to have the Blocker Interests purchased as set forth in this Section 7.04(g), references elsewhere in this Section 7.04 to Class B Units or to a Class B Member selling Class B Units shall be to the Blocker Interests and Blocker Parent, respectively, and the other terms of this Section 7.04 shall apply mutatis mutandis, and the parties hereto will take all actions necessary to effect the Class B COC Closing as the purchase of the Blocker Interests rather than the purchase of the Class B Units.

(h)    Until the Credit Agreement Payment in Full, the Class B Member agrees that it shall not incur indebtedness for borrowed money under the Credit Agreement or otherwise, in excess of the amount of indebtedness borrowed under the Credit Agreement on the Effective Date plus the amount of indebtedness for borrowed money subsequently incurred under the Credit Agreement pursuant to the terms of the Credit Agreement as in effect on the date hereof or (provided that the aggregate amount of all indebtedness for borrowed money of the Class B Member under the Credit Agreement following the effectiveness of any such changes in terms shall not exceed the Maximum Amount immediately prior to such changes) on terms not less favorable to the Class A Members, plus amounts under any swap, cap, forward, future, or other derivative transactions of the nature described in Section 7.04(d), plus $1,000,000.00. The Class B Member further agrees that it shall not take any actions or omit to take any actions which result in Encumbrances on the Class B Units securing debt for borrowed money in an aggregate amount in excess of $1,000,000.00, other than Encumbrances that secure the obligations of the Class B Member under the Credit Agreement or any related loan documents and under any swap, cap, forward, future or other derivative transactions of the nature described in Section 7.04(d).

7.05    Non-Voting NEP Common Units.

(a)    Subject to and in accordance with the terms of the NEP Limited Partnership Agreement, (i) each Non-Voting NEP Common Unit shall automatically convert into

one (1) NEP Common Unit immediately upon its Disposition to any Person that is not an Affiliate of the Class B Member Disposing of such Non-Voting NEP Common Unit; and (ii) each Class B Member shall have the right, but not the obligation, to convert all or any portion of the Non-Voting NEP Common Units held by it into NEP Common Units. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, NEP shall not effect any such conversion, and the Class B Members shall not have the right to convert any Non-Voting NEP Common Units to the extent that, after giving effect to the conversion set forth on the applicable Optional Conversion Notice (as such term is defined in the NEP Limited Partnership Agreement), the Class B Member (together with such Class B Member’s Affiliates and any other Persons acting as a group with the Class B Member or any of the Class B Member’s Affiliates (such Persons, “Attribution Parties”)) would beneficially own in excess of 19.8% of the number of NEP Common Units outstanding immediately after giving effect to such conversion. For purposes of this Section 7.05, beneficial ownership and the beneficial ownership percentage shall be calculated in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, including taking into account any other securities held by the Class B Member or any of the Attribution Parties that are convertible into NEP Common Units, as applicable. NEP hereby agrees that it shall not, without the consent of the Class B Members, alter, amend, or waive any provision of the NEP Limited Partnership Agreement in a manner that would require the consent of the Non-Voting NEP Common Units if the Non-Voting NEP Common Units were outstanding and held solely by the Class B Members.

(b)    In the event of a Disposition of Non-Voting NEP Common Units, NEP hereby agrees to use commercially reasonable efforts to facilitate the conversion of such Non-Voting NEP Common Units in connection with such Disposition, including coordinating with the Transfer Agent to facilitate such Disposition and to record the transfer and conversion of Non-Voting NEP Common Units in a manner that permits the sale of the Non-Voting NEP Common Units in market transactions.

7.06    Certain Assistance. In the event that NEP Member does not exercise the Call Option prior to expiration of the Call Option Period (or, if applicable, the Call Option Period Extension), then NEP Member shall use commercially reasonable efforts to assist the Class B Members in connection with a private placement of the Class B Units then held by such Class B Members and their Affiliates (or then held by the lenders under the Debt Financing (as that term is used in the Purchase Agreement)). In furtherance of the foregoing, the Managing Member shall, and shall cause the Company and its subsidiaries to, use commercially reasonable efforts to cooperate with, provide reasonable assistance with respect to, and take customary actions reasonably requested by the Class B Members, including (a) making the Company’s properties, books and records, and other assets reasonably available for inspection by potential acquirers, (b) establishing a physical or electronic data room that includes materials customarily made available to potential acquirers in connection with such processes, (c) upon reasonable notice, making employees of the Managing Member, the Company, and its Affiliates reasonably available for presentations, site visits, interviews, and other diligence activities, and (d) reasonably assisting in the termination of Encumbrances on the Class B Units under any Class B Permitted Loan Financing and in the perfection of any security interest of other Encumbrances on the Class B Units by the lenders of any such potential acquirers, subject, in each case, to customary confidentiality provisions; provided that none of the foregoing actions

unreasonably interferes with the operation of any business of the Company or any of its subsidiaries. The Class B Members and their Affiliates shall, promptly upon written request by NEP Member, reimburse NEP Member and its Affiliates for all reasonable and documented out-of-pocket costs, fees, and expenses (including attorneys’ fees and expenses), to the extent such costs, fees, and expenses are incurred by such Person or any of the directors, officers, managers, members, partners, employees, stockholders, representatives, advisors, or Affiliates of such Person in connection with any such Person’s complying with the obligations under this Section 7.06.

7.07    Governmental Authorizations.

(a)    In furtherance and not in limitation of each Member’s obligations pursuant to Section 7.02, Section 7.03, and Section 7.04, each Member shall cooperate with the Managing Member and each other Member and shall use reasonable best efforts to take or cause to be taken all actions, and to do or cause to be done all things, reasonably necessary, proper, or advisable on its part to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement as soon as reasonably practicable, including preparing and filing as promptly as reasonably practicable all documentation to obtain all Required Governmental Authorizations, including under the HSR Act and as may be required by the FERC.

(c)    Each of the Members agrees to use its reasonable best efforts to obtain early termination of the waiting period under the HSR Act and any other Law, and, in furtherance of the foregoing, each Member agrees to use its reasonable best efforts to avoid or eliminate as soon as possible each and every impediment under the HSR Act and any other Law that may be asserted by any Governmental Authority so as to enable the Members hereto to promptly consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement; provided, however, that, notwithstanding the foregoing, no Member (and no Parent, subsidiary, or Affiliate of a Member) shall be required to take any of the following actions (or any action that would require a Member (or its Parent, subsidiaries, Affiliates or, in the case of a Class B Member, any direct or indirect portfolio company of investment funds advised or managed by one or more Affiliates of such Class B Member or any investment of such Class B Member or an Affiliate of such Class B Member in connection therewith) to take any of the following actions): (i) committing to or effecting, by consent decree, hold separate orders, trust, or otherwise, the divestiture, sale, license, transfer, assignment, or other disposition of assets or business of such Persons; (ii) terminating, relinquishing, modifying, transferring, assigning, restructuring, or waiving existing agreements, collaborations, contractual rights, obligations, or other arrangements of such Persons; (iii) creating or consenting to create any contractual rights, obligations, tolling agreements, or other arrangements of such Persons, or (iv) otherwise limiting the freedom of action with respect to, any assets, rights, products, licenses, business, operations, or interests therein of any such Persons.

8.02    Certain Tax Matters.

(a)    The Company shall make the following elections on the appropriate tax returns:

        

(i)    to adopt as the Company’s fiscal year the calendar year;

(ii)    to adopt the accrual method of accounting;

(iii)    if a distribution of the Company’s property as described in Code Section 734 occurs or upon a transfer of Membership Interest as described in Code Section 743 occurs, on request by notice from any Member, to elect, pursuant to Code Section 754, to adjust the basis of the Company’s properties;

(iv)    to elect to deduct or amortize the organizational expenses of the Company in accordance with Section 709(b) of the Code and to depreciate property pursuant to the most rapid depreciation or cost recovery method available to the Company;

(v)    subject to Section 8.03(h), any other election the Managing Member may deem appropriate; and

(vi)    to elect out of any “bonus” depreciation under Code Section 168(k) or any corresponding provision of the Code.

(b)    Neither the Company nor any Member shall make an election for the Company or any of its direct or indirect subsidiaries to be (i) subject to tax as an association for U.S. federal income tax purposes or (ii) excluded from the application of the provisions of subchapter K of chapter 1 of subtitle A of the Code or any similar provisions of applicable state law and no provision of this Agreement shall be construed to sanction or approve such an election.

(c)    NEP Member and the Company, as applicable, shall cause each subsidiary of the Company which is a tax equity partnership (each, a “Project Entity”) to make the following elections:

        

(i)    an election under Section 754 of the Code for the taxable year of such Project Entity that includes the date of this Agreement, to the extent such an election is not already in effect.

(ii)    To elect out of any “bonus” depreciation under Code Section 168(k) or any corresponding provision of the Code with respect to (A) Project Entity

assets acquired after the date of this Agreement and (B) any Section 743(b) adjustment of the Company in Project Entity assets.

(d)    If a Project Entity requests consent of the Company to take “bonus” depreciation under Code Section 168(k) or any corresponding provision of the Code, the Company shall not provide such consent except upon the approval of Class B Members in accordance with Section 6.03.

(e)    Each Member represents that its ownership of a Membership Interest will not cause any portion of the Company’s or any Project Entity’s assets to be, and covenants to the Company and each other Member that it will not take any action that would cause any portion of the Company’s or any Project Entity’s assets to become, treated as “tax-exempt use property” within the meaning of Section 168(h) of the Code.

8.03    Tax Matters Member. (a) The Managing Member shall serve as the “partnership representative” of the Company within the meaning of Section 6223(a) of the Code (the “Partnership Representative”). The Partnership Representative shall inform each other Member of all significant matters that may come to its attention in its capacity as the Partnership Representative by giving notice thereof on or before the fifth (5^th) Business Day after becoming aware thereof and, within that time, shall forward to each other Member copies of all significant written communications it may receive in that capacity. In the event that the Managing Member ceases to be the Partnership Representative (or any successor Partnership Representative ceases to be a Member), the Members shall, by unanimous approval, appoint a successor Partnership Representative.

(b)    The Partnership Representative shall provide any Member, upon request, access to accounting and tax information and schedules as shall be necessary for the preparation by such Member of its income tax returns and such Member’s tax information reporting requirements.

(c)    Any reasonable cost or expense incurred by the Partnership Representative in connection with its duties, including the preparation for or pursuance of administrative or judicial proceedings, shall be paid by the Company.

(d)    The Partnership Representative may (but shall not be required to) make the election provided by Section 6221(b) of the Code to have Subchapter C of Chapter 63 of the Code not apply (the “Election Out”).

(e)    If the Internal Revenue Service proposes an adjustment in the amount of any item of income, gain, loss, deduction, or credit of the Company, or any Member’s (or former Member’s) distributive share thereof, and such adjustment results in an “imputed underpayment” as described in Section 6225(b) of the Code (a “Covered Audit Adjustment”), the Partnership Representative may (but shall not be required to) elect, to the extent that such election is available (taking into account whether the Partnership Representative has received any needed information on a timely basis from the Members and former Members, if applicable), and the Election Out was not previously made, to apply the alternative method provided by Section 6226

of the Code (the “Alternative Method”). To the extent that the Partnership Representative does not elect the Alternative Method with respect to a Covered Audit Adjustment, the Partnership Representative shall use commercially reasonable efforts to (a) request information necessary to, and to make any modifications available under Sections 6225(c) of the Code to the extent that such modifications are available (taking into account whether the Partnership Representative has received any needed information on a timely basis from the Members and former Members) and would reduce any Company Level Taxes payable by the Company with respect to the Covered Audit Adjustment, and (b) if requested by a Member, provide to such Member information allowing such Member to file an amended U.S. federal income tax return, as described in Section 6225(c)(2) of the Code, to the extent that such amended return and payment of any related U.S. federal income taxes would reduce any Company Level Taxes payable by the Company with respect to the Covered Audit Adjustment (after taking into account any modifications described in clause (a)). Similar procedures shall be followed in connection with any state or local income tax audit that incorporates rules similar to Subchapter C of Chapter 63 of the Code.

(f)    Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, any taxes, penalties, and interest payable under the Subchapter C of Chapter 63 of the Code by the Company (“Company Level Taxes”) shall be treated as attributable to the Members (and former Members if applicable) of the Company, and the Partnership Representative shall cause the Company to allocate the burden of any such Company Level Taxes to those Members (and former Members if applicable) to whom such amounts are reasonably attributable (whether as a result of their status, actions, inactions, or otherwise), taking into account the effect of any modifications described in Section 8.03(e) that reduce the amount of Company Level Taxes. All Company Level Taxes allocated to a Member (or a former Member if applicable), at the option of the Managing Member, shall (i) be promptly paid to the Company by such Member (or former Member if applicable) (“Option A”) or (ii) be paid by reducing the amount of the current or next succeeding distribution or distributions which would otherwise have been made to such Member pursuant to Section 5.01 and, if such distributions are not sufficient for that purpose, by reducing the proceeds of liquidation otherwise payable to such Member pursuant to Section 5.02 (“Option B”). If the Managing Member selects Option A, the Company’s payment of the Company Level Taxes allocated to the applicable Member (or former Member if applicable) shall be treated as a distribution to such Member (or former Member) and the payment by such Member (or former Member) to the Company shall be treated as a capital contribution for U.S. federal income tax purposes; provided that such payments shall not affect the Capital Accounts of, any other contributions to be made by, or the distributions and allocations to be made to the applicable Members (or former Member) under this Agreement. If the Managing Member selects Option B, the applicable Member shall for all purposes of this Agreement be treated as having received a distribution of the amount of its allocable share of the Company Level Taxes at the time such Company Level Taxes are paid by the Company. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law, each Member (whether or not such Member becomes a Member after the Effective Date) hereby agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Company and the other Members (or former Members if applicable) from and against any liability for Company Level Taxes allocated to such Member in accordance with this Section 8.03(f) (including with respect to any former Member, any Company Level Taxes allocated to such former Member that are

attributable to taxable periods (or portions thereof) during which such former Member was treated as holding an interest in the Company).

(g)    If any Member intends to file a notice of inconsistent treatment under Code Section 6222(c), such Member shall give reasonable notice under the circumstances to the other Members of such intent and the manner in which the Member’s intended treatment of an item is (or may be) inconsistent with the treatment of that item by the other Members.

(h)    Except as may be required by Law, the Managing Member and the Company shall not make any election or take any action, including such elections or actions specifically authorized under this Section 8.03, that reasonably would be expected to have a disproportionate adverse effect on GEPIF or its direct or indirect investors.

9.01    Maintenance of Books.

(a)    The Managing Member shall keep or cause to be kept at the principal office of the Company or at such other location it deems necessary or appropriate complete and accurate books and records of the Company, including all books and records necessary to provide to the Members any information required to be provided pursuant to Section 3.07, Section 9.02 and Section 9.03, supporting documentation of the transactions with respect to the conduct of the Company’s business, and minutes of the proceedings of its Members and the Managing Member, and any other books and records that are required to be maintained by applicable Law.

(b)    The books of account of the Company shall be (i) maintained on the basis of a fiscal year that is the calendar year; (ii) maintained on an accrual basis in accordance with GAAP; and (iii) audited by a nationally recognized certified public accounting firm selected by the Managing Member and retained by the Company at the end of each Fiscal Year; provided that the Members’ Capital Accounts shall be maintained in accordance with Article 4 and Article 5.

9.02    Determination of Internal Rate of Return.

(a)    Quarterly Determinations. For so long as the Class B Units are held by GEPIF or its Affiliates, the Managing Member will (i) calculate at least quarterly the Internal Rate of Return achieved by GEPIF and (ii) send GEPIF, within forty-five (45) days after the end of each Quarter, a report in the form of the IRR Report showing the Internal Rate of Return as of such date. The Managing Member will make its advisors available to answer any questions regarding the calculations contained in any such IRR Report.

(b)    Calculation Rules and Conventions. The Managing Member will employ the following calculation rules and conventions in determining the Internal Rate of Return of GEPIF:

(i)    Continuity of Ownership. The Managing Member will treat ownership of the Class B Units as being continuous from the Effective Date to the date as of which the calculation is being made without regard to any change in ownership of the Class B Units during such period.

(ii)    Cash Flows. The “Cash Flows” taken into account in determining the Internal Rate of Return will consist solely of (A) the aggregate Effective Date Capital Contributions made by the Class B Members in exchange for the Class B Units on the Effective Date and any additional Capital Contributions made by the Class B Member pursuant to Section 4.04 and (B) distributions to the Class B Members. Any amount received by the Class B Members that is in the nature of a recovery or replacement of, or indemnity or compensation for, and is the substantial economic equivalent of, an item that would otherwise be taken into account in the foregoing clauses (A) and (B) (which for the avoidance of doubt, will not include any recovery, or replacement of, or indemnity or compensation for, actual out-of-pocket losses, costs or expenses of the Class B Members) will be deemed received for purposes of the calculation of the Internal Rate of Return on the date so received by such Class B Member (or its nominee).

(c)    Any dispute by a Class B Member of any item or procedure or calculation of, or which affects, the achievement of the Internal Rate of Return contained in any notice or report delivered to the Class B Members will be disputed in accordance with the dispute resolution mechanism set forth in Article 11.

9.03    Reports.

(a)    No later than one hundred seventy-five (175) days following the end of each fiscal year of the Company, the Managing Member shall prepare and deliver to each Member annual financial statements audited by a nationally recognized certified public accounting firm and prepared in accordance with GAAP, including a balance sheet, an income statement, a statement of cash flows, and a statement of changes in each Member’s equity as of the end of the immediately preceding fiscal year, starting with the year ended December 31, 2018, and any other financial information as is provided by the Company and its subsidiaries pursuant to the Project Financings.

(b)    No later than seventy-five (75) days following the last day of each of the first three Quarters of each fiscal year, the Managing Member shall prepare and deliver to each Member an unaudited consolidated balance sheet, income statement, and a statement of cash flows for such Quarter; provided that the Managing Member shall prepare and deliver to each Member an unaudited consolidated balance sheet for the fourth Quarter of each fiscal year no later than ninety (90) days following the last day of such Quarter. All unaudited financial statements and other information shall be based on the best information available at the time of issuance, be prepared in conformance with GAAP, and be timely updated and provided to Members to the extent audit or other adjustments are made to information previously provided to the Members with the objective of cooperatively providing each Member with information necessary to maintain its own books and records.

(c)    Concurrent with the distribution to the Project Financing Parties, the Managing Member shall provide to each Member any report, financial statements, or other information that is to be distributed to the Project Financing Parties pursuant to the Project Financings.

(d)    In addition to its obligations set forth above, the Managing Member shall timely prepare and deliver to any Member or its Parent, upon request, all of such additional financial statements, notes thereto and additional financial information as may be required in order for each Member, its Parent, or an Affiliate of such Member or its Parent to comply with any reporting requirements under (i) the Securities Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, (ii) the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, or (iii) any National Securities Exchange or automated quotation system.

(e)    The cost of preparing any financial statements or other information pursuant to this Section 9.03 shall be borne by the Company.

9.04    Information Updates.

(a)    The Managing Member shall notify the Class B Members of the occurrence of any Emergency or material risk of Emergency, material developments or events which would or would reasonably be likely to impact the Company or any of its subsidiaries, and any breaches or threatened breaches of any Affiliate Transactions or other material contracts to which the Company or any of its subsidiaries is a party, including (for the avoidance of doubt) any breach or threatened breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement under the Purchase Agreement. The Managing Member shall provide notice of the foregoing events promptly, but in no event more than two (2) Business Days following the date on which the Managing Member becomes aware of such events.

(b)    After expiration of the Call Option Period (or Call Option Period Extension, if applicable), as requested by the Class B Members upon reasonable advance notice, and at reasonable times during usual business hours and in such a manner as not to interfere unreasonably with the operation of the business of the Company or any of its subsidiaries, the Managing Member will make employees and representatives of the Company and its subsidiaries available to answer questions regarding the performance of the business of the Company and its subsidiaries.

9.05    Bank Accounts. The Company shall establish and maintain one or more separate bank and investment accounts and arrangements for Company funds in the Company’s name with such financial institutions and firms as the Managing Member may determine. Funds of the Company shall be deposited in such banks or other depositories as shall be designated from time to time by the Managing Member. The Company’s funds may not be commingled with the funds of any other Person. All withdrawals from any such depository shall be made only as authorized by the Managing Member and shall be made only by check, wire transfer, debit memorandum, or other written instruction.

10.01    No Right of Voluntary Withdrawal. A Member has no power or right to voluntarily Withdraw from the Company without the prior written consent of all remaining Members, in their sole and absolute discretion.

10.02    Deemed Withdrawal. A Member is deemed to have Withdrawn from the Company if such Member dissolves and commences liquidation or winding-up. If there occurs an event that makes it unlawful for a Member to continue to be a Member, then the Members shall negotiate in good faith to determine a workaround to allow such Member to continue to be a Member.

10.03    Effect of Withdrawal. A Member that is deemed to have Withdrawn pursuant to Section 10.02 (a “Withdrawn Member”) must comply with the following requirements in connection with its deemed Withdrawal:

(a)    The Withdrawn Member ceases to be a Member immediately upon the occurrence of the applicable Withdrawal event.

(b)    The Withdrawn Member shall not be entitled to receive any distributions from the Company except as set forth in Section 10.03(e), to exercise any voting or consent rights, or to receive any further information (or access to information) from the Company. The Percentage Interest of such Withdrawn Member shall not be taken into account in calculating the Percentage Interests of the remaining Members for any purposes.

(c)    The Withdrawn Member must pay to the Company all amounts owed to it by such Withdrawn Member.

(d)    The Withdrawn Member shall remain obligated for all liabilities it may have under this Agreement or otherwise with respect to the Company that accrued prior to the Withdrawal.

(e)    The Withdrawn Member shall (i) have the status of only an Assignee, and not a Member, and (ii) be entitled to receive, in such capacity, its share of the Net Profits and Net Losses of the Company and to receive its portion of each distribution that is made by the Company pursuant to Section 5.01 and Section 5.02 as if it held the Membership Interest held immediately prior to its Withdrawal. From the date of the Withdrawal to the date on which the Company is dissolved and its affairs wound up in accordance with Article 12, the former Capital Account balance of the Withdrawn Member shall be recorded as a contingent obligation of the Company, and not as a Capital Account. The rights of a Withdrawn Member under this Section 10.03(e) shall (A) be subordinate to the rights of any other creditor of the Company, (B) not include any right on the part of the Withdrawn Member to receive any interest or other amounts with respect thereto (except as may otherwise be provided in the evidence of any Indebtedness of the Company owed to such Withdrawn Member); (C) not require any Member to make a Capital Contribution or a loan to permit the Company to make a distribution or otherwise to pay the

Withdrawn Member; and (D) be treated as a liability of the Company for purposes of Section 12.02.

(f)    Except as set forth in Section 10.03(e), a Withdrawn Member shall not be entitled to receive any return of its Capital Contributions or other payment from the Company in respect of its Membership Interest.

(g)    The Percentage Interests of the remaining Members shall be amended to reflect the Withdrawal of the Withdrawn Member, and such Withdrawn Member’s Class A Units or Class B Units, as applicable, shall be deemed cancelled and extinguished.

(h)    All costs and expenses incurred by the Withdrawn Member in connection with its Withdrawal shall be borne by such Withdrawn Member, and the Withdrawn Member shall reimburse all other Members for all costs and expenses incurred by such Members in connection with such Withdrawal.

11.01    Disputes. This Article 11 shall apply to any dispute arising under or related to this Agreement (whether arising in contract, tort, or otherwise, and whether arising at law or in equity), including (a) any dispute regarding the construction, interpretation, performance, validity, or enforceability of any provision of this Agreement or whether any Person is in compliance with, or breach of, any provisions of this Agreement, and (b) subject to Section 11.02, any deadlock among the Members with respect to any matter subject to a vote of the Members, and (c) the applicability of this Article 11 to a particular dispute. Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Article 11 shall not apply to any matters that, pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement, are to be determined solely by the Managing Member. Any dispute to which this Article 11 applies is referred to herein as a “Dispute.” With respect to a particular Dispute, each Member that is a party to such Dispute is referred to herein as a “Disputing Member.” The provisions of this Article 11 shall be the exclusive method of resolving Disputes.

11.02    Negotiation to Resolve Disputes. If a Dispute arises, the Disputing Members (or agents thereof) shall promptly meet (whether by telephone or in person) in a good faith attempt to resolve the Dispute.

11.03    Courts. If a Dispute is still unresolved following ten (10) Business Days after the Disputing Members attempted in good faith to resolve the Dispute in accordance with Section 11.02, then any of such Disputing Members may submit such Dispute to the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware or, in the event that such Court does not have jurisdiction over the subject matter of such dispute, to another court of the State of Delaware or a U.S. federal court located in the State of Delaware (collectively, “Delaware Courts”). Each of the Members irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of, and agrees not to commence any action, suit, or proceeding relating to a Dispute except in, the Delaware Courts and hereby consents to service of process in any such Dispute by the delivery of such process to such party at the address and in the manner provided in Section 13.01. Each of the Members hereby irrevocably and

unconditionally waives any objection to the laying of venue in any Dispute in the Delaware Courts and hereby further irrevocably and unconditionally waives and agrees not to plead or claim in any such court that any action, suit, or proceeding brought in any such court has been brought in an inconvenient forum. EACH MEMBER IRREVOCABLY WAIVES, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, any right it may have to a TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION, suit, OR PROCEEDING arising out of, relating to or otherwise WITH RESPECT TO THIS AGREEMENT or any transaction contemplated hereby.

11.04    Specific Performance. The Members understand and agree that (a) irreparable damage would occur in the event that any provision of this Agreement were not performed in accordance with its specific terms, (b) although monetary damages may be available for the breach of such covenants and agreements such monetary damages are not intended to and do not adequately compensate for the harm that would result from a breach of this Agreement, would be an inadequate remedy therefor and shall not be construed to diminish or otherwise impair in any respect any Member’s or the Company’s right to specific performance, and (c) the right of specific performance is an integral part of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and without that right none of the Members would have entered into this Agreement. It is accordingly agreed that, in addition to any other remedy that may be available to it, including monetary damages, each of the Members and the Company shall be entitled to an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this Agreement. Each of the Members further agrees that neither the Company nor any Member shall be required to obtain, furnish, or post any bond or similar instrument in connection with or as a condition to obtaining any remedy referred to in this Section 11.04, and each Member waives any objection to the imposition of such relief or any right it may have to require the obtaining, furnishing, or posting of any such bond or similar instrument.

12.01    Dissolution. The Company shall dissolve and its affairs shall be wound up on the first to occur of the following events (each a “Dissolution Event”):

(a)    unanimous consent of all of the Members to dissolve the Company; or

(b)    an event that makes it unlawful for the business of the Company to be carried on; provided that, if such an event occurs, then the Members shall negotiate in good faith to determine a workaround to allow the business of the Company to be lawfully carried on and such event shall not be deemed a “Dissolution Event” unless and until the Members mutually agree that no such workaround is reasonably feasible.

Each Member hereby waives its right to make an application for the dissolution of the Company pursuant to Section 18-802 of the Act.

12.02    Winding-Up and Termination. (a) On the occurrence of a Dissolution Event, the Managing Member shall, or shall designate another Person to, serve as liquidator. The

liquidator shall proceed diligently to wind up the affairs of the Company and make final distributions as provided herein and in the Act. The costs of winding-up shall be borne as a Company expense. Until final distribution, the liquidator shall continue to operate the Company properties with all of the power and authority of the Members. The steps to be accomplished by the liquidator are as follows:

(i)    as promptly as possible after dissolution and again after final winding-up, the liquidator shall cause a proper accounting to be made by a recognized firm of certified public accountants of the liquidator’s choosing of the Company’s assets, liabilities, and operations through the last calendar day of the month in which the dissolution occurs or the final winding-up is completed, as applicable;

(ii)    the liquidator shall discharge from Company funds all of the Indebtedness of the Company and other debts, liabilities, expenses, and obligations of the Company (including all expenses incurred in winding-up and any loans described in Section 4.05) or otherwise make adequate provision for payment and discharge thereof (including the establishment of a cash escrow fund for contingent liabilities in such amount and for such term as the liquidator may reasonably determine); and

(iii)    all remaining assets of the Company shall be distributed to the Members as follows:

(A)    the liquidator may sell any or all Company property, including to Members, and any resulting gain or loss from each sale shall be computed and allocated to the Capital Accounts of the Members in accordance with the provisions of Article 5;

(B)    with respect to all Company property that has not been sold, the fair market value of that property shall be determined and the Capital Accounts of the Members shall be adjusted to reflect the manner in which the unrealized income, gain, loss, and deduction inherent in property that has not been reflected in the Capital Accounts previously would be allocated among the Members if there were a taxable disposition of that property for the fair market value of that property on the date of distribution, as determined by the Managing Member in its reasonable discretion (it being agreed by the Members that a determination by the Managing Member that the fair market value of any such property equals the value of such property reflected in current financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP shall be deemed reasonable); and

(C)    Company property (including cash) shall be distributed among the Members in accordance with Section 5.02; and those distributions shall be made by the end of the Fiscal Year of the Company during which the liquidation of the Company occurs (or, if later, ninety (90) days after the date of the liquidation).

(iv)    If, after giving effect to all allocations, distributions and contributions for all periods (other than those required by this Section 12.02(a)(iv)), the NEP Member has a deficit in its Capital Account balance following the “liquidation,” within the meaning of Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(g), of the NEP Member’s Membership Interest, the NEP Member will be obligated to contribute cash to the Company in an amount equal to such deficit balance by the end of the Fiscal Year of the Company during which the liquidation of the Company occurs, or if later, within ninety (90) days after the date of such liquidation, except that the restoration obligation of the NEP Member in the aggregate pursuant to this Section 12.02(a)(iv) shall not be more than thirty percent (30%) of the NEP Member’s Effective Date Capital Contribution. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (A) the NEP Member will have the unilateral right by written notice to the Managing Member to (1) increase the amount of its deficit restoration obligation over the amount described in the immediately preceding sentence or (2) decrease the amount of, or eliminate, its deficit restoration obligation at any time in accordance with Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(f); (B) after the Flip Date, at the end of any Fiscal Year in which the NEP Member’s deficit restoration obligation exceeds the absolute value of the NEP Member’s deficit Capital Account balance, such deficit restoration obligation shall be automatically reduced in accordance with Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(f) to equal such absolute value; and (C) the NEP Member’s deficit restoration obligation will be eliminated in accordance with Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(f) on the first date on or after the Flip Date on which the Capital Account balance of the NEP Member is equal to or greater than zero. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, no other Member shall have any obligation to restore any deficit in its Capital Account balance unless and until such deficit restoration obligation is consented to in writing by the Managing Member.

(b)    Notwithstanding anything in Section 5.03 to the contrary, in the Fiscal Year or other applicable period in which a Dissolution Event occurs, items of income, gain, loss, and deduction shall be allocated among the Members in a manner such that the Capital Account of each Member, immediately after giving effect to such allocation, is, as nearly as possible, equal (proportionately) to the amount of the distributions that would be made to such Member pursuant to Section 5.02.

(c)    The distribution of cash or property to a Member in accordance with the provisions of this Section 12.02 constitutes a complete return to the Member of its Capital Contributions and a complete distribution to the Member 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. To the extent that a Member returns funds to the Company, it has no claim against any other Member for those funds.

(d)    No dissolution or termination of the Company shall relieve a Member from any obligation to the extent such obligation has accrued as of the date of such dissolution or termination. Upon such termination, any books and records of the Company that the liquidator reasonably determines may ever be needed again by one or more Persons who were Members as of the dissolution or termination shall be retained by the Managing Member or its designee, who shall keep such books and records (subject to review by any Person that was a Member at the time of dissolution) for a period at least three (3) years. After the expiration of such period of three (3) years, if the Managing Member (or its designee) no longer agrees to keep such books and records, it shall offer the Persons who were Members at the

time of dissolution or termination a reasonable opportunity to take over such custody, (i) shall deliver such books and records to such Persons if they elect to take over such custody (or as all of such Persons otherwise direct) and, upon request by any other Person that elects to take custody (and at such other Person’s cost), deliver a copy of such books and records to such other Person, or (ii) may destroy such books and records if no such Person so elects.

12.03    Deficit Capital Accounts. Except as provided in Section 12.02(a)(iv), no Member will be required to pay to the Company, to any other Member or to any third party any deficit balance that may exist from time to time in its or another Member’s Capital Account.

12.04    Certificate of Cancellation. On completion of the distribution of Company assets as provided herein, the Members (or such other Person or Persons as the Act may require or permit) shall file a certificate of cancellation with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware, cancel any other filings made pursuant to Section 2.06, and take such other actions as may be necessary to terminate the existence of the Company. Upon the filing of such certificate of cancellation, the existence of the Company shall terminate (and the Term shall end), except as may be otherwise provided by the Act or other applicable Law.

13.01    Notices. Except as expressly set forth to the contrary in this Agreement, all notices, requests, or consents provided for or permitted to be given under this Agreement must be in writing and must be delivered to the recipient in person, by courier or mail, or by facsimile or other electronic transmission, including electronic mail. A notice, request, or consent given under this Agreement is effective on receipt by the applicable Member. All notices, requests and consents to be sent to a Member must be sent to or made at the addresses given for that Member on Exhibit A or such other address as that Member may specify by notice to the Managing Member and the other Members. Any notice, request, or consent to the Company must be given to all of the Members. Whenever any notice is required to be given by Law, the Delaware Certificate, or this Agreement, a written waiver thereof, signed by the Person entitled to notice, whether before or after the time stated therein, shall be deemed equivalent to the giving of such notice.

13.02    Entire Agreement; Superseding Effect. This Agreement and the other Transaction Documents (as that term is defined in the Purchase Agreement) constitutes the entire agreement of the Members and their Affiliates relating to the Company and the transactions contemplated hereby and supersedes all provisions and concepts contained in all prior agreements.

13.03    Effect of Waiver or Consent. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, a waiver or consent, express or implied, to or of any breach or default by any Member in the performance by that Member of its obligations with respect to the Company is not a consent or

waiver to or of any other breach or default in the performance by that Member of the same or any other obligations of that Member with respect to the Company. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, failure on the part of a Member to complain of any act of any Member or to declare any Member in default with respect to the Company, irrespective of how long that failure continues, does not constitute a waiver by that Member of its rights with respect to that default until the applicable statute of limitations has run.

13.04    Amendment or Restatement. Each of this Agreement and the Delaware Certificate may, subject to Section 6.03(a)(i), be amended or restated only by a written instrument executed (or, in the case of the Delaware Certificate, approved) by the Managing Member. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (a) the Managing Member may amend this Agreement without the approval of any Members (i) to implement the valid admission of New Members or Assignees as Members; (ii) to correct typographical, formatting, cross-referencing, or other similar errors; and (iii) to update Exhibit A from time to time to reflect the valid admission of New Members, the valid admission of Assignees as Members, the making of additional Capital Contributions by Members, the issuances of Class A Units, Class B Units, or other classes or groups of Membership Interests, and the Disposition of Membership Interests, so long as such transactions were approved and consummated in accordance with the terms of this Agreement; and (b) if the Managing Member determines that any amendment of this Agreement is necessary to satisfy any Law, the Members shall negotiate in good faith to enter into an amendment of this Agreement to satisfy such Law that is mutually agreeable.

13.05    Binding Effect. Subject to the restrictions on Dispositions set forth in this Agreement, this Agreement is binding on and shall inure to the benefit of the Members and their respective successors and permitted assigns.

13.06    Governing Law; Severability. THIS AGREEMENT IS GOVERNED BY AND SHALL BE CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF DELAWARE, EXCLUDING ANY CONFLICT-OF-LAWS RULE OR PRINCIPLE THAT MIGHT REFER THE GOVERNANCE OR THE CONSTRUCTION OF THIS AGREEMENT TO THE LAW OF ANOTHER JURISDICTION. In the event of a direct conflict between the provisions of this Agreement and any mandatory, non-waivable provision of the Act, such provision of the Act shall control. If any provision of the Act provides that it may be varied or superseded in a limited liability company agreement (or otherwise by agreement of the members or managers of a limited liability company), such provision shall be deemed superseded and waived in its entirety if this Agreement contains a provision addressing the same issue or subject matter. If any provision of this Agreement or the application thereof to any Member or circumstance is held invalid or unenforceable to any extent, (a) the remainder of this Agreement and the application of that provision to other Members or circumstances is not affected thereby, and (b) the Members shall negotiate in good faith to replace that provision with a new provision that is valid and enforceable and that puts the Members in substantially the same economic, business, and legal position as they would have been in if the original provision had been valid and enforceable.

13.07    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; provided, however, that this Section 13.07 shall not obligate a Member to furnish guarantees or other credit supports by such Member’s Parent or other Affiliates.

13.08    Waiver of Certain Rights. Each Member irrevocably waives any right it may have to maintain any action for dissolution of the Company or for partition of the property of the Company.

13.09    Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts with the same effect as if all signing parties had signed the same document. All counterparts shall be construed together and constitute the same instrument.

13.10    Expenses. Except as otherwise provided in Section 7.06, each Member shall bear its own transaction costs and any other costs and expenses incurred in connection with being a Member, holding its Membership Interest, and administering its rights and obligations under this Agreement.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Members have executed and delivered this Agreement as of the date first set forth above.
