e.Trust Administration. The State Agencies do not and will not object to the appointment of the Trustee, the Claims Administrator or any advisors, consultants, professionals or representatives selected or retained by the Fire Victim Trust, the Trustee or the Claims Administrator to the Fire Victim Trust. The State Agencies shall have no role in the Fire Victim Trust administration, including, without limitation, the investment or monetization of any assets of the Fire Victim Trust or any decision relating to the individual and/or aggregate amount of the Fire Claims and punitive and exemplary damages thereon, if any, all of which is under the sole determination of the Trustee and Claims Administrator, as provided in the Fire Victim Trust Agreement; provided, however, if the Trustee fails to perform under Sections 2.2(b) and 2.2(c) of this Agreement, the affected Agency (or Agencies) may seek to enforce this Agreement by

motion to the Bankruptcy Court, or if the Bankruptcy Court determines that it lacks jurisdiction, any other forum having jurisdiction to enforce this Agreement. The Trustee shall provide the State Agencies the reports of the Fire Victim Trust during the covered periods as provided to the Bankruptcy Court in accordance with the Fire Victim Trust Agreement, when in effect. The State Agencies shall have the same rights as a Fire Victim Claimant, if any, to contest the administration of the Fire Victim Trust. For the avoidance of doubt, no provision in this Agreement shall be construed to impose a restriction of any kind on the ability of the Trustee to fulfill his or her obligations under the Fire Victim Trust Agreement, including, without limitation, the obligation to carry out the purpose of the Fire Victim Trust or to make investment decisions to protect, sell or reinvest the assets of the Fire Victim Trust.

f.Chapter 11 Plan. This Agreement shall be null and void if the Chapter 11 Plan is amended, modified or supplemented in a manner that either (a) has a material adverse impact on the treatment, payment, or source of payment of the State Agency Fire Claims against the Debtors, as provided herein, or (b) channels or seeks to channel the Non-Channeled State Agency Claims to the Fire Victim Trust, in each case, without first obtaining the prior written consent of the TCC, the Debtors, and the State Agencies.

g.California Public Entity Release. Upon the Settlement Effective Date, Cal OES, on behalf of itself and the State of California, (i) releases any and all California public entities (including local agencies and political subdivisions) of any claims the State of California or Cal OES may have under Section 312 of the Stafford Act (42 U.S.C. § 5155), its implementing regulations, and any similar provisions of California law (including 19 Cal. Code of Regulations § 2910) for payments received from the Debtors and the Fire Victim Trust and (ii) deems the California public entities to have fully cooperated in all efforts necessary to recover the costs of assistance from the Debtors and the Fire Victim Trust. The California public entities are intended third-party beneficiaries with standing to enforce this release. This Agreement does not affect the eligibility of the California public entities to receive further disaster assistance related to the Fires under the Stafford Act, the California Disaster Assistance Act, or any emergency declared under those acts.

h.Fire Victim Trust Release. Except for the rights expressly arising out of, provided for, or reserved in this Agreement, upon the Settlement Effective Date, the State Agencies, on their own behalf and in every other capacity in which they may now or in the future act, hereby voluntarily, intentionally, knowingly, absolutely, unconditionally and irrevocably release the Fire Victim Trust for the State Agency Fire Claims.

i.Reservation of Rights. Except as specifically addressed by this Agreement, this Agreement does not release, waive, relinquish, discharge, resolve, or settle any claims of any agency of the State of California, including, without limitation, the Non-Channeled State Agency Claims, all of which claims and rights thereto are expressly reserved. The State Agencies reserve all rights with respect to the Chapter 11 Plan, the final form of the Fire Victim Trust Agreement and the Claims Resolution Procedures. All of the Debtors’ rights and the TCC’s rights with respect to the foregoing are also reserved.
