• Assignment of Contracts and Rights Anything in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, this Agreement shall not constitute an agreement to assign any Asset or any claim or right or any benefit arising thereunder or resulting therefrom if an attempted assignment thereof, without the consent of a third party thereto, would constitute a breach or other contravention thereof, be ineffective with respect to any party thereto or in any way adversely affect the rights of Seller or, upon transfer, Purchaser thereunder. Seller agrees that it will use its best efforts to obtain the necessary consents to the assignment of each Seller Contract or other Seller Asset which by its terms requires the consent of any of the other contracting parties thereto to an assignment thereof to Purchaser. If such consent is not obtained with respect to any such Contract or other Asset, Seller and Purchaser will cooperate in an arrangement reasonably satisfactory to Purchaser and Seller under which Purchaser shall obtain, to the extent practicable, the claims, rights and benefits and assume the corresponding obligations thereunder in accordance with this Agreement, including subcontracting, sub-licensing or sub-leasing to Purchaser, or under which Seller shall enforce for the benefit of Purchaser, with Purchaser assuming Seller’s obligations, any and all claims, rights and benefits of Seller against a third party thereto. Seller will promptly pay to Purchaser when received all monies received by Seller under any Contract or other Asset or any claim, right or benefit arising thereunder not transferred to Purchaser pursuant to this Section 8(j). Purchaser agrees to perform at its sole expense all of the obligations of Seller to be performed after the Acquisition Date under any such Contract or other Asset the benefits of which Purchaser is receiving pursuant to the provisions of this Section 8(g).

• Service Contracts (a) The Trustees may, at any time and from time to time, contract for exclusive or nonexclusive advisory, management and/or administrative services for the Trust or for any Series with any Person; and any such contract may contain such other terms as the Trustees may determine, including without limitation, authority for the Investment Adviser to determine from time to time without prior consultation with the Trustees what investments shall be purchased, held, sold or exchanged and what portion, if any, of the assets of the Trust shall be held uninvested and to make changes in the Trust's investments, and such other responsibilities as may specifically be delegated to such Person.

• Assumed Contracts If Buyer delivers a written notice of objection to any Assumed Contract prior to the expiration of the Due Diligence Period, then, to the extent a termination right in favor of the applicable Seller is provided for in such Assumed Contract, or if such Assumed Contract does not prohibit termination, the applicable Seller shall instruct its Property Manager to promptly following the expiration of the Due Diligence Period provide a notice of termination to the vendor thereunder with respect to each such Assumed Contract to which Buyer has timely objected (collectively, the “Objectionable Contracts”); provided, however, that (i) Buyer may not object to any of the Cable Contracts or any other Assumed Contract marked “must assume” on Schedules 3.1(l)-1 through 3.1(l)-5 and shall assume the same at Closing pursuant to the applicable Assignment of Contracts; (ii) Seller shall have no obligation to terminate any Contract, which by its terms is not terminable or which cannot be terminated without payment of an express termination fee or penalty unless Buyer agrees in writing to pay such termination fee or penalty; (iii) if the termination of any Objectionable Contract cannot be made effective upon the Closing Date (Seller not being obligated to pay any money to accomplish such termination), then such Objectionable Contract shall be assumed by Buyer at Closing pursuant to the applicable Assignment of Contracts (together with all Assumed Contracts with respect to the applicable Asset that do not constitute Objectionable Contracts) for the remaining period of such Assumed Contract until its effective date of termination, and (iv) Buyer shall be responsible for any termination fees payable with respect to the termination of any Objectionable Contracts. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Buyer shall not be required or entitled to assume any Assumed Contract that, by its terms, may not be assigned to and assumed by Buyer without the consent of a third party, unless such third party’s written consent is actually obtained at or before the Closing. All Contracts that Buyer is required to assume hereunder are collectively referred to herein as the “Assumed Contracts”.

• Project Contracts (i) all existing Project Contracts are or will be in full force and effect at the time of the first drawdown under this Agreement (except for the EPC Contract, which will be in full force and effect once the down payment under the EPC Contract has been made), (ii) no other material Project Contracts have been concluded, which have not been disclosed to the Agent, (iii) the Borrower has no notice of any material breaches by any contracting party under the Project Contracts, and (iv) with regard to Project Contracts, which will not be available before the day on which this representation and warranty is made or repeated, the Borrower assumes that these are produced as soon as and to the extent that they may become necessary for the Project;

• Assigned Contracts The Grantor shall fully perform all of its obligations under each of the Assigned Contracts, and shall enforce all of its rights and remedies thereunder, in each case, as it deems appropriate in its business judgment. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Grantor shall take all action necessary or appropriate to permit, and shall not take any action which would have any materially adverse effect upon, the full enforcement of all indemnification rights under its Assigned Contracts. The Grantor shall notify the Lender in writing, promptly after the Grantor becomes aware thereof, of any event or fact which could give rise to a material claim by it for indemnification under any of its material Assigned Contracts, and shall diligently pursue such right and report to the Lender on all further developments with respect thereto. The Grantor shall deposit into a Deposit Account at the Lender or subject to a Deposit Account Control Agreement for application to the Secured Obligations, in accordance with Section 2.16 of the Credit Agreement, all amounts received by the Grantor as indemnification or otherwise pursuant to its Assigned Contracts. If the Grantor shall fail after the Lender’s demand to pursue diligently any right under its material Assigned Contracts, or if a Default then exists, the Lender may directly enforce such right in its own or the Grantor’s name and may enter into such settlements or other agreements with respect thereto as the Lender shall determine. In any suit, proceeding or action brought by the Lender under any material Assigned Contract for any sum owing thereunder or to enforce any provision thereof, the Grantor shall indemnify and hold the Lender and Lender harmless from and against all expense, loss or damage suffered by reason of any defense, setoff, counterclaims, recoupment, or reduction of liability whatsoever of the obligor thereunder arising out of a breach by the Grantor of any obligation thereunder or arising out of any other agreement, indebtedness or liability at any time owing from the Grantor to or in favor of such obligor or its successors. All such obligations of the Grantor shall be and remain enforceable only against the Grantor and shall not be enforceable against the Lender. Notwithstanding any provision hereof to the contrary, the Grantor shall at all times remain liable to observe and perform all of its duties and obligations under its Assigned Contracts, and the Lender’s exercise of any of its rights with respect to the Collateral shall not release the Grantor from any of such duties and obligations. The Lender shall not be obligated to perform or fulfill any of the Grantor’s duties or obligations under its Assigned Contracts or to make any payment thereunder, or to make any inquiry as to the nature or sufficiency of any payment or property received by it thereunder or the sufficiency of performance by any party thereunder, or to present or file any claim, or to take any action to collect or enforce any performance, any payment of any amounts, or any delivery of any property.

• Contracts and Agreements The agreements and documents described in the Registration Statement and the Prospectus conform in all material respects to the descriptions thereof contained therein and there are no agreements or other documents required by the Securities Act to be described in the Registration Statement and the Prospectus or to be filed with the Commission as exhibits to the Registration Statement, that have not been so described or filed. Each agreement or other instrument (however characterized or described) to which the Company is a party or by which it is or may be bound or affected and (i) that is referred to in the Registration Statement and the Prospectus, or (ii) is material to the Company’s business, has been duly authorized and validly executed by the Company, is in full force and effect in all material respects and is enforceable against the Company and, to the Company’s knowledge, the other parties thereto, in accordance with its terms, except (x) as such enforceability may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or similar laws affecting creditors’ rights generally, (y) as enforceability of any indemnification or contribution provision may be limited under the federal and state securities laws, and (z) that the remedy of specific performance and injunctive and other forms of equitable relief may be subject to the equitable defenses and to the discretion of the court before which any proceeding therefor may be brought. None of such agreements or instruments has been assigned by the Company, and neither the Company nor, to the Company’s knowledge, any other party is in default thereunder and, to the Company’s knowledge, no event has occurred that, with the lapse of time or the giving of notice, or both, would constitute a default thereunder. To the best of the Company’s knowledge, performance by the Company of the material provisions of such agreements or instruments will not result in a violation of any existing applicable law, rule, regulation, judgment, order or decree of any governmental agency or court, domestic or foreign, having jurisdiction over the Company or any of its assets or businesses (each, a “Governmental Entity”), including, without limitation, those relating to environmental laws and regulations.

• Assignment of Contracts On the Initial Borrowing Date, the Borrower shall have duly authorized, executed and delivered a valid and effective assignment by way of security in favor of the Collateral Agent of all of the Borrower’s present and future interests in and benefits under (x) the Construction Contract, (y) each Refund Guarantee and (z) the Construction Risk Insurance (it being understood that the Borrower will use commercially reasonable efforts to have the underwriters of the Construction Risk Insurance accept and endorse on such insurance policy a loss payable clause substantially in the form set forth in Part 3 of Schedule 2 to the Assignment of Contracts (as defined below), and it being further understood that certain of the Refund Guarantee and none of the Construction Risk Insurances will have been issued on the Initial Borrowing Date), which assignment shall be substantially in the form of Exhibit J hereto or otherwise reasonably acceptable to the Lead Arrangers and the Borrower and customary for transactions of this type, along with appropriate notices and consents relating thereto (to the extent incorporated into or required pursuant to such Exhibit or otherwise agreed by the Borrower and the Facility Agent), including, without limitation, those acknowledgments, notices and consents listed on Schedule 5.07 (as modified, supplemented or amended from time to time, the “Assignment of Contracts”) provided that, if any Refund Guarantee issued to the Borrower on the Initial Borrowing Date shall have been issued by KfW IPEX-Bank GmbH, then such Refund Guarantee shall be charged pursuant to a duly authorized, executed and delivered, valid and effective charge of any such Refund Guarantee in the form of Exhibit Q hereto or otherwise in a form reasonably acceptable to the Lead Arrangers and the Borrower and customary for transactions of this type, along with appropriate notices and consents relating thereto (to the extent incorporated into or required pursuant to such Exhibit or otherwise agreed by the Borrower and the Facility Agent) (as modified, supplemented or amended from time to time, the “Charge of KfW Refund Guarantees”).

• Contracts and Leases (a) Each Material Contract and Lease is a valid and subsisting agreement, without any material default of Seller thereunder, and to the knowledge of Seller, without any default on the part of any other party thereto. To the knowledge of Seller, no event or occurrence has transpired which with the passage of time or giving of notice or both will constitute a default under any Material Contract or Lease. A true and correct list of each Material Contract and Lease and every amendment thereto or other agreement or document relating thereto is set forth as Schedule 3.6 to this Agreement. True and correct copies of the Material Contracts and Leases (and any amendments thereto) have been provided to Purchaser. At the time of Closing, Seller shall have made all payments and performed all obligations due through the Closing Date under each Contract and Lease, except to the extent that any payment due is set forth on the Purchase Price Adjustment Schedule and deducted in calculating the Purchase Price pursuant to Section 2.3.

• Transferred Contracts As of the date hereof, except for Excluded Contracts, the Contracts listed on Schedule 1.1(bbbb) are all of the Contracts between Seller and any third party. Except for copies of purchase orders entered into by Seller in the ordinary course of business and consistent with past practices that have not been provided to Buyer, true and complete copies of all Contracts listed on Schedule 1.1(bbbb) (including all amendments, schedules and exhibits thereto) have been delivered to Buyer. Each Transferred Contract or Lease Agreement is in full force and effect and Seller is not in breach thereof, nor to Seller’s Knowledge is any party obligated to Seller pursuant to any such Transferred Contract or Lease Agreement in breach thereof. Seller has neither breached, violated nor defaulted under, nor received notice that Seller has breached, violated or defaulted under, any of the terms or conditions of any Transferred Contract or Lease Agreement. Seller has obtained, or will obtain prior to the Closing, all necessary consents, waivers and approvals of parties to any Transferred Contract or Lease Agreement as are required thereunder in connection with the Closing, or for any such Transferred Contract or Lease Agreement to remain in full force and effect without limitation, modification or alteration after the Closing. Following the Closing, Buyer will be permitted to exercise all of the rights Seller had under the Transferred Contracts without the payment of any additional amounts or consideration other than ongoing fees, royalties or payments which Seller would otherwise be required to pay pursuant to the terms of such Transferred Contracts had the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the Collateral Agreements not occurred. Seller has not received any notice regarding any actual, alleged, possible or potential violation or breach of, or default under, any Transferred Contract or Lease Agreement. Seller has not waived any right under any Transferred Contract. To the Knowledge of Seller, each Person against whom Seller has or may acquire any rights under any Transferred Contract is able to satisfy all of such Person’s current and future monetary obligations and other obligations and liabilities thereunder. No Person is renegotiating, or has the right to renegotiate, any amount paid or payable to Seller or owed by Seller under any Transferred Contract or Lease Agreement or any other term or provision of any Transferred Contract or Lease Agreement. Seller has not guaranteed or otherwise agreed to cause, insure or become liable for, nor pledged any of its assets to secure, the performance or payment of any obligation or other liability of any other Person.
