2.	TRANSITION SERVICES AND REVERSE TRANSITION SERVICES

2.1	Commencement of Services.

2.1.1

The Parties agree that this Agreement shall apply to and govern all Transition Services and Reverse Transition Services provided from and after February 1, 2017.

2.2	Transition Services and Remuneration.

2.2.1

SUNE agrees to provide to TerraForm the Transition Services as set out in this Agreement for the Transition Services Fee in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement.  The Transition Services and the Transition Services Fee are set out in Schedule 1, provided that the Transition Services Fees for the period from February 1, 2017 through July 31, 2017 are set forth on Schedule 4.  TerraForm acknowledges and agrees that: (i) SUNE utilizes the Transition Services for its own account and the current Transition Services Fees have been calculated based upon the current usage of each Transition Service by SUNE and TerraForm; (ii) SUNE has been, and will continue to, reduce the usage of each Transition Service for its own account; and (iii) SUNE may discontinue its use of some or all Transition Services for its own account during the term of this Agreement.  SUNE will give TerraForm reasonable prior notice (but in no case less than 15 days’ prior notice) of the date on which SUNE’s usage of a given Transition Service for its own account will cease and, if TerraForm elects to continue receiving such Transition Service after such date, the Transition Service Fee for such Transition Service shall be equitably adjusted as mutually agreed by the Parties acting reasonably to reflect any increase or decrease in actual costs that result from SUNE no longer using the applicable Transition Service for its own account. In connection with evaluating any proposed adjustment, SUNE will promptly provide TerraForm with reasonable supporting documentation to confirm the actual costs to provide the Transition Services to TerraForm associated with performing such Transition Service.  The Transition Services Fees reflect the utilization of the number of full time employee equivalents (“FTEs”) indicated for each Transition Service on Schedule 1 that are currently utilized by SUNE in performing the Transition Services for TerraForm. If TerraForm requests in writing (including by email) by an officer of TerraForm that additional FTEs be allocated to perform a given Transition Service at any time, the Transition Services Fee for such Transition Service will be equitably increased as mutually agreed by the Parties acting reasonably to reflect the utilization of such additional FTEs.

2.2.2

The Parties may agree from time to time on any additional services to be provided by SUNE in addition to the Transition Services (the “Additional Transition Services”).  Prior to the provision of any such Additional Transition Services, unless otherwise agreed in writing by the Parties, the Parties must first agree in writing as to: (i) the specific scope of the Additional Transition Services to be provided; (ii) the time within which those Additional Transition Services are to be provided; (iii) the estimated number of hours that will be devoted to the provision of those Additional Transition Services; (iv) the additional amount of Transition Service Fee payable to SUNE for the rendering of those Additional Transition Services, whether fixed fee or time based; (v) the specified billing and payment arrangements in respect of such Additional Transition Services; and (vi) the resources of TerraForm or any third parties which SUNE may require to assist in the provision of such additional services.

2.2.3

If SUNE expects to incur costs after the date hereof that are in addition to the costs set forth on Schedule 1 because the provision of any Transition Service requires additional resources (including additional FTEs), SUNE shall provide an estimate to TerraForm of any such additional costs prior to incurring them, for TerraForm’s review and consent.  If SUNE determines reasonably and in good faith that the decision of whether or not to incur such additional costs must be made on an expedited basis to address exigent circumstances, SUNE shall notify TerraForm of such expedited period (which SUNE will take reasonable efforts to ensure is not less than one (1) day).  Until such time as TerraForm consents in writing (including by email) by an officer of TerraForm to such additional costs, or if TerraForm does not consent to such additional charges, SUNE shall continue to provide the Transition Services using existing resources (solely to the extent that SUNE will not incur additional costs), and any drop in the level of or standard of performance of the affected Transition Services resulting from the resource deficiency shall not be a breach of this Agreement, provided that SUNE shall use reasonable efforts to mitigate any such drop.  Any dispute relating to any such additional charges to which TerraForm has agreed shall be subject to the dispute resolution procedures set forth in Section 11.11.

2.3	Performance of Transition Services.

2.3.1

SUNE shall carry out the Transition Services with reasonable skill and diligence, and in a timely, workman-like and professional manner in accordance with applicable law, rule, regulation or court order and with a priority at least equal to the services that SUNE provides for itself.

2.3.2

SUNE may delegate or sub-contract its duties under this Agreement to third-parties that are capable of performing such duties in accordance with Section 2.3.1; provided, however, that such delegation or subcontracting shall not relieve SUNE of its obligations under this Agreement, and SUNE is responsible for the actions or inactions of such contractors or subcontractors, just as SUNE is responsible in accordance with the terms of this Agreement for persons directly employed by SUNE.

2.4	Reverse Transition Services and Remuneration.

2.4.1

TerraForm agrees to provide to SUNE the Reverse Transition Services as set out in this Agreement for the Reverse Transition Services Fee in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement.  The Reverse Transition Services and the Reverse Transition Services Fee are set out in Schedule 2.

2.4.2

The Parties may agree from time to time on any additional services to be provided by TerraForm in addition to the Reverse Transition Services (the “Additional Reverse Transition Services”).  Prior to the provision of any such Additional Reverse Transition Services, the Parties must first agree in writing as to: (i) the specific scope of the Additional Reverse Transition Services to be provided; (ii) the time within which those Additional Reverse Transition Services are to be provided; (iii) the estimated number of hours that will be devoted to the provision of those Additional Reverse Transition Services; (iv) the additional amount of Reverse Transition Service Fee payable to TerraForm for the rendering of those Additional Reverse Transition Services, whether fixed fee or time based; (v) the specified billing and payment arrangements in respect of such Additional Reverse Transition Services; and (vi) the resources of SUNE or any third parties which TerraForm may require to assist in the provision of such additional services.

2.4.3

If TerraForm expects to incur costs after the date hereof that are in addition to the costs set forth on Schedule 2 because the provision of any Reverse Transition Service requires additional resources (including additional FTEs), TerraForm shall provide an estimate to SUNE of any such additional costs prior to incurring them, for SUNE’s review and consent.  If TerraForm determines reasonably and in good faith that the decision of whether or not to incur such additional costs must be made on an expedited basis to address exigent circumstances, TerraForm shall notify SUNE of such expedited period (which TerraForm will take reasonable efforts to ensure is not less than one (1) day).  Until such time as SUNE consents to such additional costs, or if SUNE does not consent to such additional costs in writing (including by email) by an officer of SUNE, TerraForm shall continue to provide the Reverse Transition Services using existing resources (solely to the extent that TerraForm will not incur additional costs), and any drop in the level of or standard of performance of the affected Reverse Transition Services resulting from the resource deficiency shall not be a breach of this Agreement, provided that TerraForm shall use reasonable efforts to mitigate any such drop.  Any dispute relating to any such additional costs to which SUNE has agreed shall be subject to the dispute resolution procedures set forth in Section 11.11.

2.5	Performance of Reverse Transition Services.

2.5.1

TerraForm shall carry out the Reverse Transition Services with reasonable skill and diligence, and in a timely, workman-like and professional manner in accordance with applicable law, rule, regulation or court order and with a priority at least equal to the services which TerraForm provides to itself.

2.5.2

TerraForm may delegate or sub-contract its duties under this Agreement to third-parties that are capable of performing such duties in accordance with Section 2.5.1; provided, however, that such delegation or subcontracting shall not relieve TerraForm of its obligations under this Agreement, and TerraForm is responsible for the actions or inactions of such contractors or subcontractors, just as TerraForm is responsible in accordance with the terms of this Agreement for persons directly employed by TerraForm.

2.6	Cooperation.

Each Party shall cooperate reasonably with the other party in all matters relating to the provision and receipt of the Services so as to minimize the expense, distraction, and disturbance in connection with such Services, and shall perform all obligations hereunder in good faith and in accordance with principles of fair dealing.

3.3	Interim Basis Only.

The Parties acknowledge that the Services are intended to be provided to Service Recipient on an interim basis until the earlier of the time that Service Recipient can perform such Services for itself or obtain such Services from a third party, and that neither Service Provider shall have any obligation to provide any Services following the expiration or termination of this Agreement.

Service Recipient shall not discuss the Services with any third party that is a party to a Third Party Agreement; provided that, to the extent that Service Recipient or its Personnel communicate with such third parties regarding the Services prior to or as of the Effective Date, then Service Recipient or its Personnel may continue to communicate with such third parties after the Effective Date so long as such communications (i) solely concern the matters  with respect to which (and are conducted in the same manner and to the same extent as) Service Recipient or its Personnel communicated with the applicable third party prior to the Effective Date and (ii) do not include any discussion of the scope or duration of the Services and/or the wind-down of the Services.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, Service Recipient may communicate with such third parties in order to obtain services from such third parties separate from (or to replace) the Services provided hereunder, but in making such communications Service Provider may not make specific reference to SUNE or to the Services provided hereunder.

Any notice given by electronic delivery, courier or registered or certified mail shall be effective when received. A Party may update its notice addresses from time to time by delivery of notice to that effect in accordance with this Section 11.5.

11.6	Severability

Whenever possible, each provision of this Agreement shall be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under applicable law, but if any provision of this Agreement or the application of any such provision to any person or circumstance shall be held to be prohibited by or invalid, illegal or unenforceable under applicable law in any respect by a court of competent jurisdiction, such provision shall be ineffective only to the extent of such prohibition or invalidity, illegality or unenforceability, without invalidating the remainder of such provision or the remaining provisions of this Agreement.  Furthermore, in lieu of such illegal, invalid or unenforceable provision, there shall be added automatically as a part of this Agreement a legal, valid and enforceable provision as similar in terms to such illegal, invalid, or unenforceable provision as may be possible.

11.7	Force Majeure

In the event that a Party is wholly or partially prevented from, or delayed in, providing one or more Services, or one or more Services are interrupted or suspended, by reason of events beyond its reasonable control (including without limitation acts of God, fire, explosion, accident, floods, embargoes, epidemics, war, acts of terrorism, nuclear disaster or riot) (each, a “Force Majeure Event”), such Party shall not be obligated to deliver (or timely deliver, as applicable) the affected Services during such period, and the other Party shall not be obligated to pay for any Services not delivered. Upon the occurrence of a Force Majeure Event, the affected Party promptly shall give written notice to the other Party of the Force Majeure Event upon which it intends to rely to excuse its performance and of the expected duration of such Force Majeure Event. The duties and obligations of the affected Party with regard to the Services hereunder that are directly affected by such Force Majeure Event shall be tolled for the duration of the Force Majeure Event, but only to the extent that the Force Majeure Event prevents the affected Party from performing its duties and obligations hereunder and in no event shall such duties and obligations be tolled beyond expiration of the Term. During the duration of the Force Majeure Event, the affected Party shall use its reasonable business efforts to mitigate, avoid or remove such Force Majeure Event and shall use its reasonable business efforts to resume its performance under this Agreement with the least practicable delay. From and during the occurrence of a Force Majeure Event, the other Party may replace the affected Services by providing such Services for itself or engaging a third party to provide such Services at the other Party’s sole cost and expense.

11.8	No Partnership

This Agreement does not create a partnership, joint venture, association or other relationship among the Parties, and no act done by any Party hereunder shall operate to create such a relationship, nor shall the provisions of this Agreement be construed as creating such a relationship. In addition, the Parties agree that their relationship is one of independent contractors.  The liability of the Parties shall be several and not joint or collective, and each Party shall be responsible only for its own obligations as herein set forth.

11.9	Governing Law; Jurisdiction; Waiver of Jury Trial

This Agreement shall be construed and enforced in accordance with, and the rights of the Parties shall be governed by, the laws of the State of New York, without giving effect to the conflict of laws principles thereof.  Each Party agrees that it shall bring any action or proceeding in respect of any claim arising out of or related to this Agreement in the Bankruptcy Court and, solely in connection with claims arising under this Agreement: (i) irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction and the authority of the Bankruptcy Court, (ii) waives any objection to laying venue in any such action or proceeding in the Bankruptcy Court, and (iii) waives any objection that the Bankruptcy Court is an inconvenient forum, does not have jurisdiction over any party, or lacks the constitutional authority to enter final orders in connection with such action or proceeding.  Each Party hereby waives, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, any right it may have to a trial by jury in any legal proceeding arising out of, or relating to, this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby (whether based on contract, tort or any other theory).  Each Party (x) certifies that no representative, agent or attorney of any other Party has represented, expressly or otherwise, that such other Party would not, in the event of litigation, seek to enforce the foregoing waiver, and (y) acknowledges that it and the other Parties have been induced to enter into this Agreement by, among other things, the mutual waivers and certifications in this Section 11.9.  It is understood and agreed that money damages may not be a sufficient remedy for any breach or threatened breach of this Agreement and that each Party shall be entitled to seek specific performance and injunctive or other equitable relief as a remedy for any such breach or threatened breach by the other to the extent permitted by law.

11.10

Counterparts

This Agreement may be executed and delivered in any number of counterparts and by way of electronic signature and delivery, each such counterpart, when executed and delivered, shall be deemed an original, and all of which together shall constitute the same agreement.

11.11

Dispute Resolution

Any dispute, controversy or claim arising out of or relating to this Agreement, or the breach, termination or validity thereof, including the dispute of any Transition Service Fees or Reverse Transition Service Fees (each, a “Dispute”) shall be referred to the individuals set forth on Schedule 3 (the “Executive Committee”) within five (5) days of a Party becoming aware of the Dispute. The Executive Committee will meet (by telephone or in person) during the next ten (10) days and attempt to resolve the Dispute.  If the Executive Committee is unable, in good faith and using commercially reasonable efforts, to resolve the Dispute within such ten (10) day period and the Dispute relates to an amount payable under this Agreement, Service Recipient shall pay the disputed amount to Service Provider in accordance with Section 6.2.  The Executive Committee shall continue to seek to resolve the Dispute for an additional fifteen (15) day period and, if the Executive Committee is unable, in good faith and using commercially reasonable efforts, to resolve the Dispute within such period, the Service Provider may immediately terminate the Services that are the subject of the Dispute.  For clarity, (i) the existence of a dispute with respect to a Service shall not relieve the Service Recipient from its obligation to pay Services Fees to Service Provider for Services provided by Service Provider to Service Recipient in accordance with this Agreement while the dispute is pending and, (ii) following termination of a Service in accordance with this Section 11.11, the Service Provider shall invoice (pursuant to the terms of Section 6) the Service Recipient for all disputed Services performed in accordance with this Agreement by Service Provider and received by Service Recipient through the termination date and Service Recipient shall pay Service Provider all Services Fees for Services performed through the termination date in accordance with Section 6.2.  Nothing in this Section 11.11 (including the payment of fees with respect to any disputed Services or the termination of Services by the Service Provider) shall impair or limit, or operate as an express or implied waiver of, any right or remedy available to the Party disputing Services or Services Fees. Either Party may replace its members of the Executive Committee at any time with other Representatives of similar seniority by providing notice in accordance with Section 11.5. Except as set forth in this Section 11.11, Service Provider shall continue to provide the Services during the pendency of any Dispute.

11.12

SUNE agrees to provide to certain employees of TerraForm or its Affiliates a waiver letter with respect to certain obligations owed to SUNE by such employees in connection with each such employee’s previous employment with SUNE, substantially in the form attached as Appendix A, promptly after entry of the Approval Order and in no event later than ten (10) business days thereafter.  The list of employees who will receive a waiver letter from SUNE is set forth on Schedule 6 hereto and shall be updated with such additional employees as mutually agreed by the parties.
