(a)          Each Investor agrees that it shall, and shall cause its Affiliates and Representatives who have received or are given Evaluation Material to, treat confidentially all Evaluation Material; provided, however, that nothing herein shall prevent the Investor from disclosing any Evaluation Material (i) to the extent such Investor is advised by outside counsel that such disclosure is required pursuant to the order of any court or administrative agency or in any legal, judicial or administrative proceeding or other compulsory process or otherwise as required by applicable Law or regulations (in which case such Investor may disclose only the portion of such Evaluation Material that such Investor is advised by outside counsel is required to be disclosed, and provided that Investor shall promptly notify the Company, in advance, to the extent lawfully permitted to do so), (ii) upon the request or demand of any regulatory authority having jurisdiction over Investor (in which case Investor may disclose only the portion of such Evaluation Material that such Investor is advised by outside counsel is required to be disclosed, and provided that such Investor shall, except with respect to any audit or examination conducted by bank accountants or any governmental regulatory authority exercising examination or regulatory authority, promptly notify the Company, in advance, to the extent lawfully permitted to do so), (iii) to the Representatives of such Investor who need to know such information for the purpose of assisting such Investor in its evaluation of the Investment (or otherwise with the consent of the Company) so long as such Investor instructs its Representatives, and its Representatives have agreed, to treat the Evaluation Material in a confidential manner and in accordance with the terms hereof (it being understood that such Investor will be responsible for any breach of any provisions of this Agreement, which by their terms apply to such Investor’s Representatives, by any of such Investor’s Representatives), (iv) to the extent any such information becomes publicly available other than by reason of disclosure by such Investor or any of its Representatives in breach of this Agreement and (v) to the extent such information is lawfully received by such Investor from a third party that is not, to such Investor’s knowledge, subject to a confidentiality obligation to the Company or any of its subsidiaries with respect to such information or is not, to such Investor’s knowledge, prohibited from transmitting such information to such Investor.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, such Investor shall, (x) to the extent legally permissible, provide the Company with a list of any Evaluation Material that such Investor intends to disclose (and, if applicable, the text of the disclosure language itself), in advance of any such disclosure, and (y) to the extent legally permissible, reasonably cooperate (at the Company’s expense) with the Company to the extent the Company may seek to limit such disclosure, including, if requested, in connection with the Company seeking a protective order in connection with such disclosure of Evaluation Material.

(b)          Each Investor acknowledges that it is aware, and agrees that it will advise its Representatives who are informed as to the matters that are the subject of this Agreement, that (i) the Evaluation Material being furnished to such Investor contains or may itself be material non-public information (“MNPI”) concerning the Company or its Affiliates, (ii) the unauthorized disclosure of any Evaluation Material could frustrate the success of the Investment, which could have a material adverse effect on the Company and its Affiliates, and (iii) the United States securities Laws prohibit any person who has received MNPI concerning the Company or its Affiliates or the matters that are the subject of this Agreement from purchasing or selling securities of the Company or its Affiliates or from communicating such MNPI to any other person under circumstances in which it is reasonably foreseeable that such person is likely to purchase or sell such securities.  Such Investor hereby agrees that it will follow its “need to know” confidentiality policies and will maintain proper information barriers and other procedures in accordance with firm policies and practices (including, without limitation, separate deal teams where appropriate and the use of “information walls”) to avoid unauthorized disclosure of Evaluation Material to persons not on its deal team.  Prior to the Closing, neither the Company nor any of its Representatives shall furnish any Investor with Evaluation Material that constitutes MNPI unless at or prior to the Closing the Company either (x) makes public all material nonpublic Evaluation Material provided to such Investor or its Representatives or (y) confirms to such Investor in writing that none of such Evaluation Material remains MNPI.  For the avoidance of doubt, the entry by an Investor into this Agreement shall not create any presumption that the Investor has in fact received Evaluation Material.

(c)          Upon written request of the Company, such Investor shall (and shall direct its Representatives to), within ten days of its receipt of such written request promptly destroy or return to the Company all Evaluation Material and any copies of documents, papers, reports, analyses, compilations, forecasts, memoranda, notes, studies or other written or electronic material that contain, are based on, reflect, are generated in whole or in part from or are otherwise derived from Evaluation Material provided by the Company or its Representatives (such return or destruction of Evaluation Material to be confirmed by a duly authorized representative of such Investor in writing); provided, however, that such Investor and its Representatives may retain any Evaluation Material that they are required to retain pursuant to their respective (i) record-keeping requirements mandated by applicable Law or regulation or (ii) internal record maintenance policies and controls, so long as in each case such Investor and its Representatives who have received Evaluation Material continue to hold such Evaluation Material in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, notwithstanding the expiration of the term of, or termination of, this Agreement.

 information relevant to the preservation of the Company’s and the Utility’s tax attributes.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Investor shall use commercially reasonable efforts to provide to the Company a true, correct and complete information form in the form of Exhibit A (the “Ownership Form”) promptly after the date hereof and in no case later than the date that is five days after the Plan Effective Date, and if an Investor determines that any information on such Ownership Form is incorrect after its submission to the Company thereof, such Investor shall provide the Company with an updated Ownership Form reasonably promptly following such determination.  The Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cooperate with each Investor in connection with the completion of any Ownership Form.  The Company shall treat confidentially all information provided to the Company pursuant to this Section 5.6, subject to the exceptions in the proviso in Section 5.5(a), applied mutatis mutandis.

(b)          Notwithstanding Section 5.7(a), each Investor shall be permitted to Transfer any portion or all of their Shares to an Affiliate of such Investor who is managed by the same investment manager as the transferor (other than any “portfolio company” as such term is customarily used among institutional investors) of such Investor; provided, however, that (x) in no event shall an Investor be permitted under this Section 5.7(b) to Transfer any portion or all of their Shares to (i) the Company or the Utility, (ii) any competitor of the Company or the Utility or any Affiliate of any such competitor or (iii) any person who would not be eligible to file on Schedule 13G if it owned over 5% of the Company, and (y) any transferee under this Section 5.7(b) must agree to comply with the transfer restrictions in this Section 5.7 and to be bound by all the other provisions and obligations contained herein applicable to the transferor, such agreement being in a form reasonably satisfactory to the Company.

(v)          otherwise comply with all applicable rules and regulations of the SEC, including the Securities Act and the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, and use commercially reasonable efforts to make generally available to each Investor an earnings statement satisfying the provisions of Section 11(a) of the Securities Act, which requirement shall be deemed to be satisfied with respect to each Investor if the Company files complete and accurate information on Forms 10-K, 10-Q and 8-K under the Exchange Act and otherwise complies with Rule 158 under the Securities Act;

(vi)          cause the Registrable Securities included in the Shelf Registration to be listed on each securities exchange, if any, on which similar securities issued by the Company are then listed;

(b)          Each Investor shall reasonably cooperate with the Company in the preparation and filing of the registration statement under the Securities Act and any related prospectus, in each case pursuant to this Agreement, and any amendment or supplement thereto, and provide the Company with all information reasonably necessary to complete such preparation as the Company may, from time to time, reasonably request in writing, and the Company may exclude from such registration the Registrable Securities of an Investor (or not proceed with such registration) and be relieved of any related obligations hereunder if such Investor fails to furnish such information within a reasonable time after receiving such request.  Each Investor, within three business days of such Investor’s receipt of a reasonable written request of the Company, shall provide the Company with information with respect to its beneficial ownership of Common Stock and, promptly following the date on which such Investor

determines that it no longer holds any Registrable Securities as a result of one or more sales or transfers thereof, shall notify the Company in writing thereof.

SECTION 6.3.          Free Writing Prospectuses.  Each Investor agrees that, unless it obtains the prior written consent of the Company, it shall not make any offer relating to the Registrable Securities that would constitute a “free writing prospectus”, as defined in Rule 405 under the Securities Act, required to be filed with the SEC.

SECTION 6.4.          Suspension of Dispositions.  Each Investor agrees that upon receipt of any notice (a “Suspension Notice”) from the Company of the happening of any event of the kind described in Sections 6.2(a)(iv)(B), 6.2(a)(iv)(C) or 6.2(a)(ix), such Investor shall forthwith discontinue disposition of Registrable Securities until such Investor’s receipt of the copies of the supplemented or amended prospectus, or until it is advised in writing (the “Advice”) by the Company that the use of the prospectus may be resumed, and has received copies of any additional or supplemental filings that are incorporated by reference in the prospectus, and, if so directed by the Company, such Investor shall deliver to the Company all copies, other than permanent file copies then in such Investor’s possession, of the prospectus covering such Registrable Securities current at the time of receipt of such notice.  The Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts and take such actions as are reasonably necessary to render the Advice as promptly as practicable.

SECTION 6.5.          Registration Expenses.  The Company shall pay all of its fees and expenses incident to the performance of or compliance with its obligations under this Article VI, including fees and expenses of compliance with securities or blue sky Laws, SEC filing fees, listing application fees, printing expenses, transfer agent’s and registrar’s fees, cost of distributing prospectuses in final form and any supplements thereto and fees and disbursements of counsel for the Company and all independent certified public accountants for the Company and other Persons retained by the Company (but not including any commissions attributable to the sale of Registrable Securities or fees and expenses of counsel and any other Representative representing the Investor).  Each Investor shall pay all its own expenses, including fees and expenses of any counsel retained by it.

SECTION 6.6.          Indemnification.

(a)          Indemnification by the Company.  The Company agrees to indemnify and hold harmless, to the fullest extent permitted by Law, each Investor and the investment manager or managers acting on behalf of such Investor with respect to the Registrable Securities, Persons, if any, who Control any of them, and each of their respective Representatives (each, an “Indemnitee”), from and against any and all losses, penalties, judgments, suits, costs, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses, joint or several (including reasonable costs of investigation 

and legal expenses) (“Losses”), arising out of or caused by any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the registration statement or any related prospectus in each case relating to the Registrable Securities (as amended or supplemented if the Company shall have furnished any amendments or supplements thereto), or arising out of or caused by any omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein in the case of the prospectus, in light of the circumstances in which they were made, not misleading, except insofar as such Losses arise out of or are caused by any such untrue statement or omission included or omitted in conformity with information furnished to the Company in writing by an Indemnitee or any Person acting on behalf of an Indemnitee expressly for use therein.

(b)          Indemnification by Each Investor.  Each Investor agrees, to the fullest extent permitted under applicable Law, to indemnify and hold harmless each of the Company, each Person, if any, who Controls the Company, and each of their respective Representatives to the same extent as the foregoing indemnity from the Company, but only with respect to Losses arising out of or caused by an untrue statement or omission included or omitted in conformity with information furnished in writing by or on behalf of such Investor expressly for use in any registration statement described herein or any related prospectus relating to the Registrable Securities (as amended or supplemented if the Company shall have furnished any amendments or supplements thereto).

(c)          Indemnification Procedures.

(i)          In case any claim is asserted or any proceeding (including any governmental investigation) shall be instituted where indemnity may be sought by an Indemnitee pursuant to any of the preceding paragraphs of this Section 6.6, such Indemnitee shall promptly notify in writing the Person against whom such indemnity may be sought (the “Indemnitor”); provided, however, that the omission so to notify the Indemnitor shall not relieve the Indemnitor of any liability that it may have to such Indemnitee except to the extent that the Indemnitor was prejudiced by such failure to notify.  The Indemnitor, upon request of the Indemnitee, shall retain counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnitee to represent (subject to the following sentences of this Section 6.6(c)(i)) the Indemnitee and any others the Indemnitor may designate in such proceeding and shall pay the fees and disbursements of such counsel related to such proceeding.  In any such proceeding, any Indemnitee shall have the right to retain its own counsel, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of such Indemnitee unless (A) the Indemnitor and the Indemnitee shall have mutually agreed to the retention of such counsel, (B) the Indemnitor fails to take reasonable steps necessary to defend diligently any claim within ten days after receiving written notice from the Indemnitee that the Indemnitee believes the Indemnitor has failed to take such steps, or (C) the named parties to any such proceeding (including any impleaded parties) include both the Indemnitor and the Indemnitee and representation of both parties by the same counsel would be inappropriate due to actual or potential differing interests or legal defenses between them and, in all such cases, the Indemnitor shall only be responsible for the reasonable fees and expenses of such counsel.  It is understood that the Indemnitor shall not, in connection with any proceeding or related proceedings in the same jurisdiction, be liable for the reasonable fees and expenses of more than one separate law

(ii)          If the indemnification provided for in this Section 6.6 is held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be unavailable to an Indemnitee in respect of any Losses referred to herein, then the Indemnitor, in lieu of indemnifying such Indemnitee hereunder, shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such Indemnitee as a result of such Losses in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the Indemnitor and the Indemnitee and Persons acting on behalf of or Controlling the Indemnitor or the Indemnitee in connection with the statements or omissions that resulted in such Losses, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations.  The relative fault of the Company, the Investor and Persons acting on behalf of or Controlling the Company or the Investor shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the Company, the Investor or by Persons acting on behalf of the Company or the Investor and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission.  The Indemnitor shall not be required to contribute pursuant to this Section 6.6(c)(ii) if there has been a settlement of any proceeding affected without its written consent.

SECTION 6.7.          Transfer of Registration Rights.  The rights to cause the Company to register Registrable Securities pursuant to this Agreement may not be transferred or assigned to any other Person, other than in connection with a transfer of Shares pursuant to Section 5.7(b).

SECTION 6.8.          Opt-Out.  At any time prior to the initial effectiveness of the Shelf Registration, any Investor may irrevocably elect to opt out of the registration rights under this Article VI.  Any Investor that elects to opt out (a) shall not be entitled to the inclusion of any of its Shares in any Shelf Registration, (b) shall not receive notices or notifications under this Article VI, (c) shall not be subject to Section 6.2(c) and (d) shall not have any other rights or obligations of an “Investor” under this Article VI.

SECTION 6.9.          Legend.  Upon or promptly following the effectiveness of the Shelf Registration, the Company shall take such actions as may be reasonably requested by the Company’s transfer agent so that each Investor may sell, pursuant to such registration statement, any of its Registrable Securities without any legend.

SECTION 7.1.          Interpretation of Provisions; Severability.  Article, Section and Schedule references are to this Agreement, unless otherwise specified. All references to instruments, documents, contracts, and agreements are references to such instruments, documents, contracts, and agreements as the same may be amended, supplemented, and

otherwise modified from time to time, unless otherwise specified. The word “including” shall mean “including but not limited to.” Whenever any Party has an obligation under the Operative Documents, the expense of complying with that obligation shall be an expense of such Party unless otherwise specified. Whenever any determination, consent or approval is to be made or given by any Party to this Agreement, such action shall be in such Party’s sole discretion unless otherwise specified in this Agreement. If any provision in the Operative Documents is held to be illegal, invalid, not binding, or unenforceable, such provision shall be fully severable and the Operative Documents shall be construed and enforced as if such illegal, invalid, not binding, or unenforceable provision had never comprised a part of the Operative Documents, and the remaining provisions shall remain in full force and effect. The Operative Documents have been reviewed and negotiated by sophisticated parties with access to legal counsel and shall not be construed against the drafter.  The headings in this Agreement are for reference purposes only and will not in any way affect the meaning or interpretation of this Agreement.

SECTION 7.2.          Nonsurvival of Representations and Warranties.

(a)          None of the representations and warranties in this Agreement or in any instrument delivered pursuant to this Agreement shall survive the Closing, other than the representations and warranties in Sections 3.5, 3.12, 3.14, 4.6, 4.7, 4.8 and 4.9 (the “Surviving Representations”).  After the Closing, no Party may assert in any action, claim or legal proceeding against any other Party, or assert as a defense in any action, claim or legal proceeding brought by any other Party, (i) any breach of, noncompliance with or inaccuracy of any representation or warranty in this Agreement or in any instrument delivered pursuant to this Agreement, other than a Surviving Representation, or (ii) any breach of Section 5.1 or 5.3.  This Section 7.2 shall not limit any covenant or agreement of the parties which by its terms contemplates performance after the Closing.

(b)          Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, including this Section 7.2, no Party shall be deemed to have waived any rights, claims, causes of action or remedies against another party with respect to claims for fraud.

SECTION 7.3.          No Waiver; Modifications in Writing.

(a)          No Waiver. No failure or delay on the part of any Party in exercising any right, power, or remedy hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right, power, or remedy preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power, or remedy. The remedies provided for herein are cumulative and are not exclusive of any remedies that may be available to a Party at law or in equity or otherwise.

(b)          Modifications in Writing. Except as otherwise provided herein, no amendment, waiver, consent, modification, or termination of any provision of this Agreement shall be effective unless in writing and signed by each of the Parties hereto affected by such amendment, waiver, consent, modification, or termination. Any amendment, supplement or modification of or to any provision of this Agreement, any waiver of any provision of this Agreement, and any consent to any departure by the Company from the terms of any provision of this Agreement shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for

(c)        To the extent that the Company agrees with any Person to terms for the purchase of Common Stock that are more favorable to any Investor than the terms set forth in this Agreement, with respect to this Investment or in a transaction with such Person that is of a similar nature as the Investment, taking into account, as the principal factors, the size of the Investment and the security being purchased (excluding allocation provisions that apply proportionately relative to the size of such Investor’s purchase of Common Stock and excluding any exceptions to Article IV, other than exceptions to Section 4.4(a), in any Investor Disclosure Letter), whether by modification to this Agreement, by a separate or side agreement or otherwise, the Company shall promptly provide notice of such terms to all other Investors, and such terms shall be deemed without further action to be incorporated into this Agreement for all Investors, except as to an Investor that shall object to such incorporation in writing. This Section 7.3(c) shall not apply to the Backstop Commitment Letters or any amendment thereto..

SECTION 7.4.          Binding Effect; Assignment.

(a)          Binding Effect. This Agreement shall be binding upon the Company, each Investor, and their respective successors and permitted assigns. Except as expressly provided in this Agreement, this Agreement shall not be construed so as to confer any right or benefit upon any Person other than the Parties to this Agreement and their respective successors and permitted assigns; provided, however, that each Party agrees that each of the Investment Banks, in their capacity as placement agent for the Company, may rely on, and shall have the benefit of, the representations, warranties and agreements of the Company contained in Sections 3.5, 3.14 and 3.17 and of each Investor contained in Sections 4.7, 4.8, 4.9 and 7.13.

(b)          Assignment of Rights. All or any portion of the rights and obligations of each Investor under this Agreement may be transferred by such Investor to any of its Affiliates with the prior written consent of the Company (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed); provided, however, that (i) in the event of such assignment, the assignee must agree in writing to be bound by the provisions of this Agreement, including the rights, interests and obligations so assigned, (ii) no such assignment will relieve such Investor of its obligations hereunder prior to the Closing, (iii) such Investor and assignee shall each provide a new or updated, as applicable, Exhibit A in connection with such assignment and (iv) no such assignment to any assignee shall be permitted if as a result of such assignment, the assignee, together with its Affiliates, would upon the consummation of the Investment pursuant to this Agreement beneficially own more than 4.75% of the Common Stock outstanding as of the time immediately preceding the Investment.  Neither this Agreement nor any of the rights, interests or obligations under this Agreement shall be assigned or transferred (in whole or in part) by the Company (whether by operation of law or otherwise) without the prior written consent of the Investors.
