(1) Non-Project Default and Non-Program Default. In the event of a Seller Event of Default that is not a Project Default or a Program Default (an “Other Seller Default”), Buyer as its sole and exclusive remedy shall be entitled to shall be entitled to offset against the then unpaid remaining portion of the Purchase Price any actual damages arising solely and directly from such Other Seller Default ; provided, however, that Buyer only shall be entitled to such an offset once actual damages for all Other Seller Defaults, in the aggregate, exceed $10,000 (the “Damage Collar”), at which point Buyer shall be able to offset the actual damages over and above the Damage Collar in the manner set forth above.

(2) Project Default. In the event of a Seller Event of Default that is a Project Default, Buyer shall have the following remedies, as applicable:

(i) For a Project Default that occurs before the satisfaction of Project Milestones 1-5 in connection with a Project, there shall be no remedy. In such event, Seller may request that Buyer re-assign and transfer the related Project back to Seller, at Buyer’s election and Seller’s expense

(ii) For a Project Default that occurs after the satisfaction of Project milestones 1-5 but before the satisfaction of Project Milestone 6, Buyer as its sole and exclusive remedy shall be entitled to an offset (as set forth below) for repayment of any verifiable and non-recoverable out-of-pocket expenses directly incurred in connection with such Project, including any Project Payment, EPC Costs, or other non-recoverable costs paid or incurred in connection with such Project. Buyer shall have the right to offset such expenses against all Project Payments (for the subject Project or any other Project) currently held in or subsequently deposited to the Escrow Account.

(3) Program Default.

32


$1.00 of Purchase Price due to Seller for the 75% portion of the Project Payment, up to $1.00 for each $1.00 of Purchase Price for the 75% portion of the Project Payment due to Seller, and (iv) Seller shall release all remaining Projects and Acquired Assets from, and terminate, the Security Agreement; provided, however, that Seller shall retain any rights asserted against the Security Agreement prior to such termination. In the event of a Seller Event of Default that is a Program Default, then for all related and underlying Project Defaults where the Project already had satisfied Project Milestones 1-5, but prior to the satisfaction of Project Milestone 6, Buyer shall additionally be entitled to an offset (as set forth below) for repayment of any verifiable and non-recoverable out-of-pocket expenses directly incurred in connection with such Projects, including any Project Payment, EPC Costs, or other non-recoverable costs paid or incurred in connection with such Projects. Buyer shall have the right to offset such expenses against all Project Payments (for the subject Project or any other Project) currently held in or subsequently deposited to the Escrow Account.

It is the intent of the parties that in all cases, subject to the terms and limitations set forth above in this Section 10.2.2(a), that Buyer’s remedies upon a Seller Event of Default shall be limited to Seller’s interest in the Acquired Assets, the Projects and the unfunded portion of the Purchase Price. In no event shall Seller be personally liable to Buyer for any Seller Event of Default or for reimbursement of any portion of the Purchase Price actually paid to or for the benefit of Seller.

(b) Buyer Default; Seller’s Remedies. In the event of a Buyer Event of Default Seller as its sole and exclusive remedies shall be entitled to (i) terminate this Agreement, in which event Buyer shall cooperate fully and at no additional cost to Seller in effecting the re-conveyance back to Seller (or any nominee of Seller) of all of the Acquired Assets relating to Projects for which the Purchase Price has not been paid or is not escrowed subject to the terms of this Agreement (and any additions thereto arising after the Closing, and further provided that after Closing, Buyer also shall effect the re-conveyance to Seller in the manner required in this paragraph of any Projects for which Purchase Price was escrowed at Closing, but was not thereafter paid in full to Seller, as and when required under this Agreement promptly upon the timely failure to pay such sums) pursuant to documentation in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Seller; and (ii) without limiting Buyer’s obligation to reconvey the Acquired Assets in the manner set forth in the preceding item (i), foreclose on the Acquired Assets of the Projects that remain subject to the Security Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Buyer shall have a right to recover, solely from the Proceeds of the Projects and not from any other assets of Seller, its outstanding Cash Advance balance, provided that such right shall be unsecured and shall be fully subordinate to Seller’s right to complete or sell the Projects and to recover all of Seller’s costs and expenses for the Projects and all other actual damages incurred by Seller as a result of the Buyer Event of Default. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (a) Buyer’s right to recover the Seller Fee portion of the Cash Advance shall not be subordinated to Seller’s right to recover costs and expenses for the Projects and (b) with regard to the subordinated portion of the Cash Advance, Seller shall pay all proceeds from Projects, whether from the completion, ownership, operation, lease, sale, or otherwise (“Proceeds”), after recovery of Seller’s costs and expenses and actual damages, to Buyer until such time as the outstanding Cash Advance balance has been paid in full.

33


(b) by Buyer, upon written notice to Seller of such termination, in the event of an uncured Seller Event of Default as provided in Section 10.1, an Other Seller Default as provided in Section 10.2.2(a)(1), or a Program Default as provided in Section 10.2.2(a)(3) above;

(c) by Seller, upon written notice to Buyer of such termination, in the event of an uncured Buyer Event of Default as provided in either Section 10.1 or 10.2.2(b) above.

10.2.4 Effect of Termination.

(a) In the event of any termination of this Agreement as provided in Section 10.2, this Agreement shall forthwith become wholly void and of no further force and effect and, except as set forth in this Agreement, there shall be no liability on the part of Buyer or Seller. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no such termination shall serve to release any Party from any liability (including any such liability under Section 9.3) with respect to any breach of its duties and obligations hereunder prior to such termination, provided that each of the Parties hereto shall use take all action and to do all things necessary, proper or advisable to consummate and make effective the rights and remedies contemplated by this Agreement.

(b) Notwithstanding the foregoing, Section 8.4 (Buyer Confidential Information) and Section 8.5 (Seller Confidential Information) shall survive the termination of this Agreement for a period of one year from the date on which such termination occurs.

(c) EXCEPT WITH RESPECT TO THIRD-PARTY CLAIMS, NEITHER PARTY SHALL BE LIABLE FOR ANY LOST OR PROSPECTIVE PROFITS AND IN NO EVENT SHALL EITHER PARTY BE LIABLE FOR ANY OTHER PUNITIVE, EXEMPLARY, CONSEQUENTIAL, INCIDENTAL OR INDIRECT LOSSES OR DAMAGES (IN TORT, CONTRACT OR OTHERWISE) UNDER OR IN RESPECT TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER BUYER DOCUMENT OR SELLER DOCUMENT OR FOR ANY FAILURE OF PERFORMANCE RELATED HERETO, HOWSOEVER CAUSED.

A copy of the Purchase Agreement has been provided to Escrow Holder and capitalized terms used, but not defined, in this Escrow Agreement shall have the meanings given to those terms in the Purchase Agreement;

B. Pursuant to the terms of the Purchase Agreement, the Purchase Price is payable on a post-Closing basis. Buyer has agreed to make an advance of the Purchase Price to Escrow Holder for distribution to Seller in an aggregate amount not to exceed Nine Million Dollars ($9,000,000) of which Three Million Dollars ($3,000,000) has been paid to Seller outside of escrow and Six Million Dollars ($6,000,000) remains to be advanced pursuant to the terms of this Agreement (“Cash Advance”);

C. Pursuant to the terms of the Purchase Agreement, Buyer is obligated to make payments of the Purchase Price for each Project to Escrow Holder for payment to Seller upon the satisfaction by Seller of each of Project Milestones 1-5 and Project Milestone 6, each as defined in the Purchase Agreement, and other terms and conditions (“Project Payments”); and

D. The Parties desire to enter into this Escrow Agreement to provide for an escrow account (“Escrow Account”) to be established in order to hold and pay the Cash Advance and Project Payments (“Escrow Funds”) in accordance with the terms set forth in this Agreement.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the promises and the mutual agreements expressed herein, the Parties agree as follow:

1. Appointment of Escrow Holder. Buyer and Seller hereby appoint the Escrow Holder to serve as Escrow Holder hereunder and the Escrow Holder hereby accepts such appointment and agrees to act as Escrow Holder hereunder and to accept, hold and distribute the Escrow Funds in a separate and distinct account (the “Escrow Account”) in accordance with and subject to the terms and conditions hereof. Buyer and Seller agree to pay Escrow Holder fees for its services under this Agreement as follows: (a) initial set up fee of $750 plus tax and (b) each individual disbursement a fee of $125 plus tax. Each individual disbursement can be made via check or wire transfer. Hawaii Tax rate is 4.712%


2. Deposit of Cash Advance Funds. Subject to the terms and provisions of the Purchase Agreement terminating Buyer’s obligation to make Cash Advance deposits, Buyer shall deposit the remaining Cash Advance with the Escrow Holder in six (6) installments, as follows:

2.1 Buyer shall deposit the first installment in the amount of One Million Dollars ($1,000,000 within twenty-four (24) hours of the execution of the Purchase Agreement, this Agreement, and the establishment of the Escrow Account.

2.2 Buyer shall deposit the second installment in the amount of Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($500,000) during the week of June 18-22, 2012.

To avoid delays, not less than 48 hours prior to a scheduled disbursement, deposits need to be made by wire transfer. Escrow Holder shall verify that all deposits have been cleared by the financial institution into which they are deposited before funds can be disbursed. Funds received in this escrow may be deposited with other escrow funds in any federally-insured Hawaii financial institution. The parties acknowledge that federal law and regulations limit the amount of insurance on insured deposit accounts per depositor. For insurance coverage, see www.fdic.gov. Escrow may have other deposit accounts in the financial institution in which the funds for this escrow are deposited. The cumulative effect of other accounts of Escrow Holder may limit the amount of insurance available for the funds deposited in this escrow. The parties agree that Escrow Holder has no liability in the event of failure, insolvency or inability of a financial institution to pay any funds so deposited, including earnings thereon.

provisions hereof or its duties hereunder, and it shall incur no liability and shall be fully protected in acting in good faith in accordance with the advice of such counsel.
