If, at any time prior to Closing, any Party has reason to believe (such belief to be reasonable and in good faith) that it is likely that Purchaser will not be able to perform its covenant pursuant to Section 2.03(b)(i)(A), any Party shall have the option (the “Debt Assumption Option”), by written notice to the other Party, to elect that Seller shall sell, assign and transfer to Purchaser at Closing all of Seller’s rights pursuant to the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents and that Purchaser shall at Closing assume and agree to timely perform and fulfill, from and after Closing, any and all Liabilities of the Seller and its General Partner in connection with or pursuant to the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents, including the Credit Facility Obligations, in which case all such Liabilities shall be Assumed Liabilities for all purposes of this Agreement. If any Party exercises the Debt Assumption Option pursuant to this Section 2.05, the Parties agree as follows:
(a)    the Purchaser shall not be obligated to make the payment pursuant to Section 2.03(b)(i)(A);
(b)    the conditions precedent set forth in Sections 8.15 and 9.12 shall be deemed deleted in their entirety and replaced by the following:
“(i) Purchaser shall have assumed and agreed to timely perform and fulfill, from and after Closing, any and all Liabilities of Seller and its General Partner in connection with or pursuant to the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents, including the Credit Facility Obligations, (ii) the Secured Creditors shall have consented to the assignment to and assumption by the Purchaser of all rights and Liabilities of Seller and its General Partner in connection with or pursuant to the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents, including the Credit Facility Obligations, and (iii) Seller, its partners (including its General Partner) and their Affiliates shall have been released from any and all Liabilities in connection with or pursuant to the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents, including the Credit Facility Obligations and all related Support and Affiliate Obligations, and any and all Liens charging their property in connection with the Credit Facility Obligations (it being understood, however, that such Liens will be discharged as soon as possible after Closing), on terms and conditions reasonably acceptable to Seller Parent;”
(c)    the fees and expenses of the Secured Creditors to be paid and assumed by the Purchaser pursuant to Section 15.06(b)(i) shall also include the fees and expenses (including legal fees and expenses) of the Secured Creditors incurred in connection with the negotiation of the assignment and assumption, the consent and the release of any and all Liabilities in connection with or pursuant to the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents, including the Credit Facility Obligations, and of the Secured Creditors’ Liens (and matters incidental thereto) described in Section 2.05(b);
(d)    the Permitted Liens described in clause (viii) of the definition of Permitted Liens shall include any Liens created by the Financing Documents, it being understood, however, that such Liens will remain registered at the registration system of the Personal Property Security Act (Ontario) and the applicable land registry at Closing only until the appropriate discharges have been registered and processed in accordance with the instructions of and as authorized by the Secured

21


Creditors in connection with the assignment and assumption described in Section 2.05(b)(i), and will be Permitted Liens only to the extent they are released promptly following Closing in accordance with the instructions of and as authorized by the Secured Creditors; and
(e)    the Parties shall use commercially reasonable efforts to transfer the Reserve Accounts (including all cash therein) and other Bank Accounts to the Purchaser at Closing or as soon as possible thereafter or, if it is determined at or prior to Closing that such transfer is not possible at Closing or within a reasonable period of time thereafter, shall cause the amounts in the Reserve Accounts and other Bank Accounts to be released to the Purchaser at Closing or as soon as possible thereafter. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Seller is unable to transfer the Reserve Accounts and other Bank Accounts (including all cash therein) or release the amounts therein to Purchaser by the date that is ninety (90) days following Closing, then Seller shall pay to Purchaser, within five (5) Business Days thereafter, an amount equal to the amounts in the Reserve Accounts and other Bank Accounts and upon such payment Purchaser shall have no further right to the Reserve Accounts and the other Bank Accounts or the cash therein and as and when such funds are released, Purchaser shall direct such funds to be paid to Seller.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Purchaser establishes to the reasonable satisfaction of the Seller Parent, as confirmed by the Seller Parent in writing, that the Purchaser will be able to perform its covenant pursuant to Section 2.03(b)(i)(A), then both Parties shall be deemed to have waived their option to exercise the Debt Assumption Option, and the Debt Assumption Option shall thereafter be of no further force and effect.
The Debt Assumption Option is a remedy of the Seller Parent in addition to all other remedies available to the Seller Parent at law or under this Agreement and the exercise or non-exercise of the Debt Assumption Option shall not preclude Seller Parent from exercising any other remedies available at law or under this Agreement. Notwithstanding the aforementioned and anything to the contrary, the Purchaser acknowledges and agrees that its obligation to make the payment pursuant to Section 2.03(b)(i)(A) is absolute and is not subject to or contingent upon any condition relating to the financing of or financial capacity of the Purchaser.

If the amount of any Indemnified Party’s Loss, at any time subsequent to any Indemnifying Party making a payment under this Article 12, is reduced by recovery, settlement or otherwise under or pursuant to any applicable insurance coverage, or pursuant to any applicable claim, recovery, settlement or payment by or against any other Person (for the purposes of this Section 12.01(e) only, collectively, “Third Party Recoveries”), the amount of such Third Party Recoveries, net of any out-of-pocket costs and expenses (including reasonable legal fees and expenses) reasonably incurred by the Indemnified Party in seeking such Third Party Recoveries, shall be repaid by such Indemnified Party to such Indemnifying Party within fifteen (15) days after receipt thereof (or credit therefor) by such Indemnified Party up to the amount of the payments made by such Indemnifying Party to such Indemnified Party and among the Seller Indemnitor(s) in accordance with their respective Pro Rata Share. If any portion of Losses to be reimbursed by any Indemnifying Party may be covered, in whole or in part, by Third-Party Recoveries, the Indemnified Party shall promptly give notice thereof to the Indemnifying Party (for the purposes of this Section 12.01(e) only, a “Notice of Third Party Recovery”). If any Indemnifying Party so requests within one hundred and eighty (180) days after receipt of a Notice of Third Party Recovery, the Indemnified Party shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to collect the maximum amount of Third Party Recoveries.
(j)    From and after the Closing Date, each Seller Indemnitor shall be entitled to discharge its obligation to indemnify and save the Purchaser Indemnified Parties harmless pursuant to this Section 12.01 by contributing indirectly in Seller a cash amount equal to the full amount of indemnification the indemnified party of the Purchaser Indemnified Parties is entitled to pursuant to this Section 12.01 and by causing Seller to pay immediately the proceeds of such contribution to such indemnified party of the Purchaser Indemnified Parties. The Parties agree that any such payment shall constitute a refund of the Purchase Price by Seller, including for Tax purposes. Each Seller Indemnitor’s obligation to indemnify and save the Purchaser Indemnified Parties harmless for and from any Loss pursuant to this Section 12.01 shall be considered to have been complied with and shall be extinguished only upon the indemnified member of the Purchaser Indemnified Parties receiving the full amount of indemnification it is entitled to pursuant to this Section 12.01.
12.02    Indemnification by Purchaser.
From and after the Closing Date, Purchaser shall indemnify and hold harmless the Seller Parent Indemnified Parties in respect of, and hold each of them harmless from and against, any and all Losses suffered, incurred or sustained by any of them or to which any of them become subject, resulting from, arising out of or relating to (i) any breach of any representation or warranty or covenant made by Purchaser in this Agreement or in any certificate delivered pursuant hereto; provided, however, that the foregoing indemnity shall not apply to the extent such Losses are caused by the gross negligence or willful misconduct of Seller Parent, Seller, Seller Indemnitors or any of their Representatives, (ii) any of the Assumed Liabilities or any failure of Purchaser to timely fulfill or perform the Assumed Liabilities or any of them (excluding any Assumed Liabilities in respect of which, and to the extent that, Purchaser is entitled to be indemnified pursuant to this ARTICLE 12 (without giving effect to the Deductible)); and (iii) any Action or Proceeding commenced by or

59


on behalf of any Project Personnel, including an Action or Proceeding commenced by or on behalf of any Project Personnel which relate to termination or severance related liability, arising from or relating to any breach by Purchaser of its obligation to offer employment to such Project Personnel in compliance with Section 7.06(b). The amount of any such indemnity payable by Purchaser to a Seller Parent Indemnified Party shall be reduced by the amount of all insurance proceeds actually received by such Seller Parent Indemnified Party (net of all expenses of recovery) as of the time such indemnification payment is required to be paid in respect of the Losses arising out of the occurrence of the event which gave rise to the indemnification obligation hereunder.
12.03    Period for Making Claims.
No claim under this Agreement may be made unless the Indemnified Party shall have delivered to the Indemnifying Party, with respect to any claim for indemnification pursuant to Section 12.01(a)(i), 12.01(b), 12.01(c), 12.01(d) or 12.02(i) for breach of any representation or warranty, a written notice of claim prior to the date that is eighteen (18) months after the Closing Date; provided, however, that (a) a claim for any breach of any representation or warranty contained in this Agreement involving fraud or fraudulent misrepresentation shall survive the Closing indefinitely, (b) a claim for any breach of Section 4.08 shall survive the Closing until 90 days after the expiration of the applicable statute of limitations or assessment or reassessment period (including any extensions thereto to the extent that such statute of limitations may be tolled or such assessment or reassessment period extended), (c) Sections 3.01(a), 3.01(b), 3.02(a), 3.02(b), 3.03(a), 3.03(b), 3.04(a), 3.04(b), 4.01, 4.02, 4.14(d), 5.01(a), 5.01(b), 5.02(a) and 5.02(b) (the “Fundamental Representations”) shall survive the Closing for thirty-six (36) months, and (d) a claim for indemnification pursuant to Section 12.01(a)(ii), 12.02(ii), or 12.02(iii), as applicable, shall survive the Closing until the expiration of the applicable statute of limitations (including any extensions thereto to the extent that such statute of limitations may be tolled); provided, further, that if written notice for a claim of indemnification has been provided by the Indemnified Party pursuant to Section 12.05(a) on or prior to the last day of the applicable foregoing survival period, then the obligation of the Indemnifying Party to indemnify the Indemnified Party pursuant to this ARTICLE 12 shall survive with respect to such claim until such claim is finally resolved. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, all of the Parties’ and the Seller Indemnitors’ post-Closing covenants shall survive until performed.
12.04    Limitations on Claims.
(c)    Subject to Sections 12.04(b) and 12.04(c), the Indemnifying Party shall not have any obligation to indemnify the Indemnified Party until the aggregate of all such Losses exceeds an amount equal to one percent (1%) of the Cash Purchase Price actually paid by Purchaser as of the relevant date (the “Deductible), at which time the Indemnifying Party shall be required to indemnify the Indemnified Party for all amount in excess of the Deductible.
(d)    Subject to Section 12.04(c), the aggregate liability of the Seller Indemnitors, collectively, and the aggregate liability of Purchaser under this ARTICLE 12 shall be limited to an amount equal to fifteen (15%) of the Cash Purchase Price actually paid by Purchaser as of the relevant date (the “Cap”) unless arising from breach of any Fundamental Representation or any covenant, in which case the aggregate liability of the Seller Indemnitors, collectively and the

60


Purchaser shall not exceed one hundred percent (100%) of the Cash Purchase Price; provided, however, that the Deductible, and the Cap shall not apply to any claim for indemnification pursuant to (i) Section 12.01 or Section 12.02 in respect of any claim involving fraud or fraudulent misrepresentation or willful misconduct or any breach of any representation or warranty contained in Section 4.08 or (ii) Sections 12.01(a)(ii), 12.02(ii) or 12.02(iii).
(e)    Without limiting Section 12.04(b), the liability of each Seller Indemnitor (individually) in respect of each claim for indemnification under this ARTICLE 12 shall not exceed an amount equal to such Seller Indemnitor’s Pro Rata Share of the Recoverable Amount in respect of such claim for indemnification; provided that (i) the aggregate liability of each Seller Indemnitor (individually) under this ARTICLE 12 shall not exceed an amount equal to such Seller Indemnitor’s Pro Rata Share of the Cap, and (ii) the aggregate liability of each Seller Indemnitor (individually) under this ARTICLE 12 resulting from breaches of Fundamental Representations or covenants shall not exceed such Seller Indemnitor’s Pro Rata Share of one hundred (100%) of the Cash Purchase Price.
(f)    Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary, all claims for indemnification under this ARTICLE 12 and other recourses in respect of breaches of any representations, warranties, covenants, agreements or undertakings of Seller Parent or Seller in this Agreement and in any certificates delivered pursuant hereto shall be made solely and exclusively against the Seller Indemnitors in accordance with this ARTICLE 12 and the Purchaser Indemnified Parties shall not, in that regard, have any claim or recourse whatsoever against Seller Parent or Seller.
12.05    Procedure for Indemnification.
(a)    Notice. Whenever any claim shall arise for indemnification under this ARTICLE 12, the Indemnified Party shall promptly notify the Indemnifying Party of the claim and, when known, the facts constituting the basis for such claim. In the event of any such claim for indemnification hereunder resulting from or in connection with any claim or legal proceedings by a third party, the notice shall specify, if known, the amount or an estimate of the amount of the liability arising therefrom.
(b)    Settlement of Losses. The Indemnified Party shall not settle, consent to the entry of a judgment of or compromise any claim by a third party for which it is entitled to indemnification hereunder without the prior written consent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed) of the Indemnifying Party.
(c)    Control and Management of Claims. The Seller Indemnitors hereby acknowledge and agree that, notwithstanding any agreement between any of the Seller Indemnitors or their respective Affiliates, the Invenergy Indemnitor will control and manage any and all claims for indemnification arising under Section 12.01(a), including the control and management of any claim or legal proceeding in respect of which the Seller Indemnitors, as Indemnifying Parties, may assume the defense and control pursuant to Section 12.06. Any action taken by the Invenergy Indemnitor shall be binding on all Seller Indemnitors; provided that the Invenergy Indemnitor shall not settle, consent to the entry of a judgment of or compromise any such claim without the prior written consent of the other Seller Indemnitors (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld

61


or delayed). Each of the Seller Indemnitors agrees to reimburse the Invenergy Indemnitor for the out-of-pocket costs, fees and expenses (including legal expenses) incurred in connection with the control and management of any such claim. The Invenergy Indemnitor shall keep the Seller Indemnitors informed of the development and process of any such claim and shall consult with the Seller Indemnitors on any significant decision to be made in connection with any such claim. Notwithstanding the aforementioned, the Seller Indemnitors agree that if any defense to a claim for indemnification is available to a Seller Indemnitor and is not available to all Seller Indemnitors, such Seller Indemnitor shall be entitled to pursue that part of the defense by retaining its own legal counsel at its own costs and will coordinate its efforts with those of the Invenergy Indemnitor except to the extent that the defense presents a conflict of legal interests amongst the Seller Indemnitors in which case the applicable Seller Indemnitor shall have sole control of its defense at its own costs. For greater certainty, each Seller Indemnitor will be responsible for the control and management of any and all claims for indemnification made against such Seller Indemnitor pursuant to Section 12.01(b), 12.01(c) or 12.01(d), as applicable. Whenever a Seller Indemnitor receives any claim for indemnification pursuant to Section 12.01(b), 12.01(c) or 12.01(d), as applicable, such Seller Indemnitor shall promptly notify the other Seller Indemnitors of the claim and, when known, the facts constituting the basis for such claim. Purchaser may rely and shall be protected in acting or refraining from acting upon any written notice (including, but not limited to, electronically confirmed facsimiles of such notice) believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed or presented by the Invenergy Indemnitor (or a Person believed by it to be the Invenergy Indemnitor) and Purchaser shall have not have any obligation to review or confirm that actions taken pursuant to such notice in accordance with this Agreement comply with any other agreement or document.
12.06    Rights of Indemnifying Party.
(a)    Right to Assume the Defense. In connection with any claim which may give rise to indemnity hereunder resulting from or arising out of any claim or legal proceeding by a Person other than the Indemnified Party, the Indemnifying Party, may, upon written notice to the Indemnified Party, assume and control the defense of any such claim or legal proceeding, which defense shall be prosecuted by the Indemnifying Party to a final conclusion or settlement in accordance with the terms hereof; provided, however, the Indemnifying Party may not assume and control such defense if it would be a material conflict of interest or materially adverse to the interests of the Indemnified Party.
(b)    Procedure. If the Indemnifying Party assumes the defense of any such claim or legal proceeding, the Indemnifying Party shall (i) select counsel reasonably acceptable to the Indemnified Party to conduct the defense of such claims or legal proceedings, and (ii) take all steps necessary in the defense or settlement thereof, at its sole cost and expense. If the Indemnifying Party assumes the defense of any such claim or legal proceeding, the Indemnified Party shall provide any information or authorization as may be reasonably necessary to allow the Indemnifying Party to defend such claim or legal proceeding. The Indemnified Party shall be entitled to participate in (but not control) the defense of any such action, with its own counsel and at its sole cost and expense, or take any other actions it reasonably believes to be necessary or appropriate to protect its interests.

62


(c)    Settlement of Losses. The Indemnifying Party shall not consent to a settlement of or the entry of any judgment arising from, any such claim or legal proceeding, without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed).
(d)    Decline to Assume the Defense. If (a) the Indemnifying Party does not assume the defense of any such claim or litigation resulting therefrom within thirty (30) days after the date the Indemnifying Party is notified of such claim by the Indemnified Party, (b) the claim for indemnification relates to or arises in connection with any criminal proceeding, action, indictment, allegation or investigation, (c) the claim seeks an injunction or equitable relief against the Indemnified Party, or (d) the Indemnifying Party is failing to prosecute or defend such claim in good faith, then: (i) the Indemnified Party may defend against such claim or litigation, at the sole cost and expense (which cost and expense shall be reasonable) of the Indemnifying Party, in such manner as it may deem reasonably appropriate, including settling such claim or litigation, subject to the prior written consent of the Indemnifying Party (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), and (ii) the Indemnifying Party shall be entitled to participate in (but not control) the defense of such action, with its counsel and at its sole cost and expense.
12.07    Exclusive Remedy.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary which may be contained herein, (i) the indemnities set forth in this ARTICLE 12 shall become effective as of the Closing and (ii) except as set forth in Section 7.04, ARTICLE 10 or Section 15.04, if the Closing shall occur the indemnities set forth in this ARTICLE 12 shall be the exclusive remedies of the Seller Parent Indemnified Parties and the Purchaser Indemnified Parties due to breach or misrepresentation of, or inaccuracy in, a representation or warranty, nonfulfillment or failure to perform any covenant or agreement contained in this Agreement, and the Parties shall not be entitled to a rescission of this Agreement or to any further indemnification rights or claims of any nature whatsoever in respect thereof, all of which the Parties hereto hereby waive.
12.08    Treatment of Payment.
All amounts payable by Purchaser to Seller pursuant to Section 12.02 will be deemed to be an increase to the Purchase Price for Tax and all other applicable purposes.
12.09    Payment of Claims.
All indemnity claims shall be paid by an Indemnifying Party in immediately available funds within twenty (20) days after its receipt of the corresponding claims under Section 12.03 (the “Indemnity Payment Date”) unless any such claim is disputed in good faith by the Indemnifying party within such twenty (20) day period. If an Indemnifying Party so disputes any such claim, the Indemnifying Party shall make payment of any amount of such claim which is not disputed by not later than the Indemnity Payment Date, and shall withhold payment of the disputed amount of such claim until final determination of liability with respect to such claim in accordance with this Agreement, whereupon the Indemnifying Party shall pay the amount so determined to be owed.

63

13.01    Termination.
This Agreement may be terminated at any time prior to Closing as follows:
(a)    by mutual written consent of Purchaser and the Seller Parent;
(b)    by either Seller Parent or Purchaser if the Closing has not occurred on or before December 15, 2015 (the “Termination Date”) and the failure to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement is not caused by a breach of this Agreement by the terminating party;
(c)    by Purchaser if there has been a breach by Seller Parent of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement contained in this Agreement which (i) would result in a failure of a condition set forth in ARTICLE 8, and (ii) either (x) cannot be cured prior to the Termination Date, or (y) is a breach of Seller Parent’s obligations to cause the Seller to transfer the Acquired Assets at the Closing in accordance with this Agreement; and
(d)    by Seller Parent if there has been a breach by Purchaser of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement contained in this Agreement which (i) would result in a failure of a condition set forth in ARTICLE 9, and (ii) either (x) cannot be cured prior to the Termination Date, or (y) is a breach of Purchaser’s obligations to pay the Purchase Price at the Closing in accordance with this Agreement.
13.02    Effect of Termination.
(b)    If this Agreement is validly terminated pursuant to Section 13.01, this Agreement will forthwith become null and void, and there will be no liability or obligation on the part of either Seller Parent or Purchaser (or any of their respective Representatives or Affiliates) in respect of this Agreement, except that the applicable portions of Article 1, this Section 13.02, and the entirety of 15.06, 15.07 and 15.14 will continue to apply following any termination; provided, however, that nothing in this Section 13.02 shall release any Party from liability for any breach of this Agreement by such Party prior to the termination of this Agreement (and any attempted termination by the breaching Party shall be void).
(c)    Upon termination of this Agreement by a Party for any reason, Purchaser shall, at Seller Parent’s request, return or destroy all documents and other materials of Seller Parent relating to Seller, the Acquired Assets, the Business or the Project or the transactions contemplated hereby. Each Party shall also, at the request of the other Party, return to the other Party or destroy any information relating to the Parties to this Agreement furnished by one Party to the other, whether obtained before or after the execution of this Agreement. Unless and until the Closing occurs, all

64


information received by Purchaser with respect to Seller, the Acquired Assets, the Business and the Project or Seller Parent shall remain subject to the Confidentiality Agreement.
ARTICLE 14
COMPETITION ACT APPROVAL
With respect to the Competition Act Approval, Purchaser and Seller Parent will, as soon as practicable and in any event within ten (10) Business Days following the date of this Agreement, prepare and provide joint submissions to the Commissioner of Competition, including an application for an Advance Ruling Certificate. In addition, if requested by Seller Parent or Purchaser, Seller Parent and Purchaser will promptly file a notice under section 114 of the Competition Act. Purchaser and Seller Parent shall cooperate with one another in connection with obtaining the Competition Act Approval. Subject to Laws, Purchaser and Seller Parent shall keep each other fully informed as to the status of and the processes and proceedings relating to obtaining the Competition Act Approval, and shall promptly notify each other of any material notice or other material communication (including providing copies of any material correspondence and responses to information requests) from the Commissioner of Competition.

Any Party from time to time may change its address or other information for the purpose of notices to that Party by giving notice specifying such change to the other Party.
15.03    Entire Agreement.
This Agreement, the Confidentiality Agreement (subject to Section 15.07), the Bill of Sale, the Lease Assignment, Purchaser Parent Guaranty, the Transition Services Agreement and the exhibits and schedules hereto and thereto, and the other documents executed and delivered on the Closing Date, shall supersede all previous oral and written and all contemporaneous oral negotiations, commitments, and understandings and all other letters, memoranda or other documents or communications, whether oral, written or electronic, in connection with the negotiation and execution of this Agreement and with respect to the subject hereof.
15.04    Specific Performance.
The Parties agree that if any of the provisions of ARTICLE 6 or ARTICLE 7, Sections 2.01, 2.02, 2.03, 2.05, or Section 15.07 of this Agreement were not performed in accordance with their specific terms or were otherwise breached, irreparable damage would occur and money damages may not be a sufficient remedy. In addition to any other remedy at law or in equity, each of Purchaser

67


and Seller Parent shall be entitled to specific performance by the other Party of its obligations under this Agreement and immediate injunctive relief, without the necessity of proving the inadequacy of money damages as a remedy.
15.05    Time of the Essence.
Time is of the essence with regard to all duties and time periods set forth in this Agreement.
15.06    Expenses.
(a)     Subject to Section 15.06(b), each Party shall pay for, assume and be responsible for the costs and expenses incurred by it in connection with the drafting, negotiation and execution of the Transaction Documents and the performance of its obligations thereunder and the consummation of the transactions contemplated thereby, including the fees and expenses of its legal counsel, accountants and other advisors incurred in connection therewith.

(ii)    Purchaser shall pay 50% and Seller shall pay 50% of any requisite filing fees in relation to any filing or application made in respect of the Competition Act;
(iii)    Purchaser agrees to pay for, assume and be responsible for the first one hundred thousand dollars ($100,000) of all fees, costs and expenses (excluding fees, costs and expenses covered by clauses (i) or (ii) of Section 15.06(b)) incurred or payable by Seller or any of its Affiliates as a result of or in connection with the obtaining of the Seller Approvals and the Seller Consents, including the legal fees and expenses incurred in connection thereto by Seller’s counterparties to any Material Seller Contracts (but excluding any fees incurred or paid by Seller or any of its Affiliates, without Purchaser’s prior written approval, to any Person as consideration for obtaining any Seller Approval or Seller Consent where Seller does not have any contractual or other legally binding obligation to pay such fees). The Purchaser and Seller Indemnitors agree that all such fees, costs and expenses which are in excess of one hundred thousand dollars ($100,000) shall be paid 50% by the Seller Indemnitors in accordance with their Pro Rata Share and 50% by Purchaser.
15.07    Confidentiality.
Unless and until the Closing occurs, all information disclosed to a Party by another Party pursuant to this Agreement shall be governed by the Confidentiality Agreement and the Parties will abide by the provisions of the Confidentiality Agreement. From and after the Closing Date the Confidentiality Agreement no longer applies with respect to information relating to the applicable

68


Project and Acquired Assets. With respect to the Project, from and after the Closing Date, the Seller Parent will hold, and will cause its Affiliates and Representatives to hold, in strict confidence from any other Person all information and documents relating to the Acquired Assets and the Project, provided that nothing in this sentence shall limit the disclosure by any Party of any information (a) to the extent required by Law or judicial process (provided that if permitted by Law, each Party agrees to give the other Party prior notice of such disclosure in sufficient time to permit such other Party to obtain a protective order should they so determine), (b) in connection with any litigation between the Parties (provided that such Party has taken all reasonable actions to limit the scope and degree of disclosure in any such litigation), (c) in an Action or Proceeding brought by a Party in pursuit of its rights or in the exercise of its remedies under the Investment Documents, (d) to the extent that such documents or information can be shown to have come within the public domain through no action or omission of the disclosing Party or its Affiliates or Representatives, and (e) to its Affiliates (but the Party shall be liable for any breach by its Affiliates). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, Purchaser acknowledges and agrees that all information disclosed to any Seller Indemnitor and any of its Affiliates shall be permitted and shall not constitute a breach of the Confidentiality Agreement or of this Section 15.07 to the extent that such recipients hold such information in strict confidence.
15.08    Waiver.
Any term or condition of this Agreement may be waived at any time by the Party that is entitled to the benefit thereof, but no such waiver shall be effective unless set forth in a written instrument duly executed by or on behalf of the Party waiving such term or condition and delivered pursuant to Section 15.02. No waiver by any Party of any term or condition of this Agreement, in any one or more instances, shall be deemed to be or construed as a waiver of the same or any other term or condition of this Agreement on any future occasion.
15.09    Amendment.
This Agreement may be amended, supplemented or modified only by a written instrument duly executed by or on behalf of each Party, provided that any amendment, supplement or modification to the definition of Pro Rata Share or to ARTICLE 12 shall also require the signatures of the Seller Indemnitors. Notwithstanding the forgoing nor anything in this Agreement to the contrary, this Section 15.09 and Sections 15.10, 15.13, 15.14, 15.15 and 15.22, in each case solely as such Section relates to the Financing Sources (and any provision of this Agreement to the extent an amendment, modification, waiver or termination of such provision would modify the substance of this Section 15.09 or Sections 15.10, 15.13, 15.14, 15.15 or 15.22, in each case solely as such Section relates to the Financing Sources) may not be amended, modified, waived or terminated in a manner that is adverse in any respect to the Financing Sources without the prior written consent of the Lead Arrangers.
15.10    No Third Party Beneficiary.
The terms and provisions of this Agreement are intended solely for the benefit of each Party and their respective successors or permitted assigns, and it is not the intention of the Parties to confer third party beneficiary rights upon any other Person other than any Person entitled to indemnity

69


under ARTICLE 10 or ARTICLE 12, except that the Financing Sources shall be third party beneficiaries of Section 15.09, this Section 15.10, and Sections 15.13, 15.14, 15.15 and 15.22 hereof, in each case solely as such Sections relate to the Financing Sources.
15.11    Assignment.
The rights and obligations of the Parties and the Seller Indemnitors under this Agreement are not assignable without the prior written consent of the other Party, which such Party may withhold in its discretion; provided however, that (a) any such assignment by any Party to an Affiliate of Purchaser or Seller Parent, as applicable, following the Closing shall not require consent so long as the guaranties provided by the assignor party remain in full force and effect and are applicable to such Affiliate assignee, and any such Affiliate assignee agrees to be bound by this Agreement and such assignment shall not relieve the assignor party from its obligations hereunder, and (b) any assignment following the Closing of this Agreement or any other Transaction Documents as a result of any winding-up or liquidation of Seller, General Partner, Seller Parent or their direct or indirect shareholders or partners (excluding any Seller Indemnitor) shall not require consent of Purchaser so long as the applicable assignee agrees to assume all obligations and liabilities of the entity being wound-up or liquidated pursuant to this Agreement and any other Transaction Documents to which the entity being wound-up or liquidated is a party. The Purchaser agrees, upon request by Seller Parent, to release and discharge the entity being wound-up or liquidated (excluding, for greater certainty, any Seller Indemnitor) of all of its obligations and liabilities pursuant to this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents to which such entity is a party, provided that (i) the applicable assignee assumes all obligations and liabilities of the entity being wound-up or liquidated pursuant to this Agreement and any other Transaction Documents to which the entity being wound-up or liquidated is a party and (ii) such release and discharge does not and shall not affect the obligations of the Seller Indemnitors pursuant to this Agreement.
