that, ten days after the Effective Date of the Plan of Reorganization,
the Company shall adjust (i.e., increase or decrease) the number of

Class A Common Stock as of the close of business ten days after the

for any distribution to the General Partner prior to the date of this
Agreement.

prompt notice to Company and NEPC. If the Agreement is voided, then any
Property conveyed pursuant to this Agreement shall be returned to the
grantor from whom or which it was received.

6. NEP releases all claims under the Order of the Bankruptcy Court. As the
sole recipient of Class B shares under order from the Bankruptcy Court, NEP
waives any claims it may have for additional shares of Class B Stock without
consideration as follows:
a. Rights and Restrictions. The rights and restrictions of the
Class B Stock are as follows:
i. Federal Bankruptcy Court's Plan of Reorganization. On
November 20, 1990, the Bankruptcy Court of Nevada, by Order,
required the amendment of the Certificate of Incorporation. The
Order provided at page 25, "Class B Common Stock will have full
voting rights but will have no participation in dividends. The
terms of the Class B Common shares will also provide that, upon
the issuance of any share, or fraction thereof, of Class A
Common Stock, the owners of Class B Common Stock will
contemporaneously have issued to them, on a pro rata basis, a
number of shares of Class B Common Stock which is the same as
the number of Class A Common shares then being issued.
ii. Amendment of the Certificate of Incorporation. NEC (then
Xxxxxx Geothermal, Inc.) amended its Certificate of
Incorporation on November 20, 1990 (filed on December 3, 1990)
and submitted a new paragraph defining NEC's capital, paragraph
4-A. The new paragraph governed the description of all capital
stock. The new paragraph authorized Class A Common Stock and
Class B Common Stock. All Common Stock has a par value of $.001
per share. All common stockholders (either Class A or Class B)
received one vote for each whole share of stock. The Certificate
authorized that Class A and Class B Common Stock would not
participate in the earnings of the corporation through
dividends. A Class B Common Stockholder would only receive funds
from NEC by statute upon the sale, merger, or liquidation in the
form of a liquidating distribution.
iii. Voting Rights of the Class B Stock. Class B Stock shares do
not receive dividends but would participate in distribution of
proceeds if the NEC sells, merges or liquidates. Class B Stock
shares are entitled to vote. Because the Class B Stock shares
are entitled to fifty percent (50%) of the Common Stock, the
Class B Stock shares are entitled to 50% of the votes.
iv. Class B Stock and NEP. The Plan of Reorganization provided
that immediately after the reorganization that NEP would own
100% of the Class B Stock. According to the Plan of
Reorganization, any holder of Class B Stock through NEP at the
time of the reorganization was entitled to an additional share
of Class B Stock for each share of Class A Stock issued.
v. Conflict between the Plan of Reorganization and the
Certificate regarding Issuance of Class B Stock. The Certificate
provided that upon the issuance of any share of Class A Common
Stock, NEC shall issue a pro rata amount of Class B Common Stock
to Class B Stock holders. Only present shareholders of Class B
Stock shares would be eligible to receive additional Class B
Stock shares. Further, paragraph 4-D states, "such shares of
Class B Common Stock shall be issued for such consideration as
may be determined from time to time by the Board of Directors".
(Emphasis added.) The Plan of Reorganization does not provide
for payment of "consideration" in exchange for newly issued
shares of Class B Stock.
13
b. Concurrent with the exchange of shares, NEP forever waives and
gives up any rights for additional Class B Stock without payment
of consideration as provided in the Order of the Bankruptcy
Court dated November 20, 1990.
7. NEP transfers the shares of CEC. NEC herewith transfers to NEP all of
NEC's six thousand (6,000) shares of CEC as follows:
a. NEC merged its wholly owned subsidiary, CEC, with a business
known as Herth Printing and Business Supplies in 1994.
b. The business of CEC is not compatible with the general business
plan of NEC.
c. The shares of CEC are not registered as described in section
8.d.
d. In consideration of the obligations assumed by NEP under this
agreement, NEC herewith transfers and assigns all rights, title
and interest to the shares and assets of CEC to NEP. The
effective date of the transfer shall be September 1, 1996.
8. Representations and Warranties of NEP. NEP represents and warrants to
NEC that the statements contained in this Section 8.d. are correct and complete
as of the date of this Agreement.
a. Organization of NEP. NEP is a limited partnership duly
organized, validly existing and in good standing under the Laws
