2.4 Investment Intent. Such Noteholder is acquiring the shares of EEI Preferred Stock and New EEI Warrants Stock pursuant hereto for its own account for investment and not with a view to, or for sale in connection with, any public distribution thereof in violation of the Securities Act, it being understood that Noteholder has the right to sell such shares in its sole discretion. Such Noteholder understands that such shares of EEI Preferred Stock and New EEI Warrants and the shares of EEI Common Stock into which the shares of EEI Preferred Stock are convertible, and in connection with which the New EEI Warrants are exercisable (the “Conversion Shares”), have not been registered for sale under the Securities Act or qualified under applicable state securities laws and that the EEI Preferred Stock, New EEI Warrants and Conversion Shares will be delivered to such Noteholder pursuant to one or more exemptions from the registration or qualification requirements of such securities laws and that the representations and warranties contained in this Article II are given with the intention that Quercus may rely thereon for purposes of claiming such exemptions.

EEI shall, upon the request of any holder of a certificate bearing the foregoing legend and the surrender of such certificate, issue a new certificate without such legend if (i) the security evidenced by such certificate has been effectively registered under the Securities Act and qualified under any applicable state securities law and sold by the holder thereof in accordance with such registration and qualification or (ii) such holder shall have delivered to EEI a legal opinion reasonably satisfactory to EEI to the effect that the restrictions set forth herein are no longer required or necessary under the Securities Act or any applicable state law.

COVENANTS OF EEI

6.1 Amendment to Existing Shelf Registration Statement. EEI will use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause the existing Shelf Registration Statement (as such term is defined in the Registration Rights Agreement entered into pursuant to Section 3(d) of the Purchase Agreement) to be amended, to cover a number of shares of EEI Common Stock issuable under the New EEI Warrants equal to the amount of the previously registered, but not issued, shares of EEI Common Stock that would have been issuable upon the conversion of the EEI Senior Notes (estimated to be approximately 1,160,000 shares). In connection therewith, EEI will file a post-effective amendment to the Shelf Registration Agreement within 90 days after the Closing Date and will respond to any SEC comment letter with respect thereto within 30 days after its receipt of same.

6.2 Demand Registration Rights. Upon written request by Noteholders who have tendered to EEI notice of and the full exercise price for the exercise of not less than 66-2/3% of all of the EEI Common Stock issued or issuable upon the exercise of the New EEI Warrants, excluding the shares registered in accordance with Section 6.1 above (estimated to be approximately 3,140,000 shares) then held by Noteholders (the “Registrable Securities”), but in any event no sooner than 18 months following the Closing, provided EEI is then eligible to do so under the Securities Act and the Exchange Act, and provided that the Registrable Securities that are subject to such written request are not eligible for resale without volume limitation pursuant to Rule 144, 144A or 145, EEI will prepare and file with the SEC as soon as reasonably practicable (but, subject to the provisions below, no more than 60 days from the date of the Stockholder request), a registration statement on Form S-3 with respect to all Registrable Securities (hereinafter referred to as the “Registration Statement”); provided, however, that EEI may delay such filing for a period of up to 60 days if, after consultation with counsel, EEI determines in good faith that the filing of a Registration Statement would be detrimental to EEI and EEI delivers a certificate (signed by its Chief Executive Officer) to the Noteholders stating the reasonable basis of the delay. EEI may invoke this privilege no more than twice. Upon filing the Registration Statement, EEI will use commercially reasonable efforts to cause such Registration Statement to become effective as soon as reasonably possible thereafter, and, subject to the provisions below, use its reasonable best efforts to keep such Registration Statement effective for a period of 180 days after the expiration of the New EEI Warrants or, if earlier, until the Noteholders have sold all of the Registrable Securities. If at any time after a Registration Statement becomes effective, EEI advises the Noteholders in writing that due to any stop order or the existence of material information that has not been disclosed to the public and included in the Registration Statement it is necessary to amend the Registration Statement, the Noteholders shall suspend any further sale of Registrable Securities pursuant to the Registration Statement until EEI advises the Noteholders that such stop order has been lifted or the Registration Statement has been amended. In such event, EEI shall use reasonable efforts to cause such stop order to be lifted or the Registration Statement to be amended as soon as reasonably practicable. In addition, EEI may suspend use of the Registration Statement to the extent EEI is advised by its legal counsel that such action is reasonably necessary to comply with federal securities law. In the event the sales of Registrable Securities of the Noteholders are suspended as provided above, the period during which a Registration Statement must be kept effective shall be extended for the total number of days during which sales are suspended. In connection with and subject to the foregoing, EEI will:

(a) Prepare and file with the SEC such amendments and supplements to such registration statement and the prospectus used in connection therewith as may be necessary to keep such Registration Statement effective and current (including such amendments and supplements as requested by a Noteholder, to the extent such request relates to information with respect to such Noteholder), and comply with the provisions of the Securities Act with respect to the disposition of all securities covered by such Registration Statement during such period in accordance with the intended methods of disposition by the Noteholders thereof as set forth in such Registration Statement.

(b) Furnish to the Noteholders such number of copies of such Registration Statement, each amendment and supplement thereto, the prospectus included in such Registration Statement (including each preliminary prospectus), and such other documents as the Noteholders may reasonably request in order to facilitate the disposition of the Registrable Securities owned by the Noteholders.

(c) Use its commercially reasonable efforts to register or qualify, on or prior to the date such Registration Statement becomes effective, the Registrable Securities under the securities or “blue sky” laws of each applicable state of the United States and do any other related acts which may be reasonably necessary to enable the Noteholders to consummate the disposition in such jurisdictions of the Registrable Securities owned by the Noteholders; provided, however, that EEI will not be required (i) to qualify to do business in any jurisdiction where it would not otherwise be required to qualify but for this Section 6.2(c) or (ii) to consent to general service of process in any such jurisdiction.

(d) Notify the Noteholders at any time when a prospectus relating to the Registrable Securities is required to be delivered under the Securities Act, and of the happening of any event as a result of which, or the fact that, the prospectus included in such registration statement contains an untrue statement of a material fact or omits any fact necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, and EEI will prepare a supplement or amendment to such prospectus so that, as thereafter delivered to the purchasers of the Registrable Securities, such prospectus will not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any fact necessary to make the statements therein not misleading.

(e) Use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Registrable Securities to be listed or quoted on each securities exchange or interdealer quotation system on which similar securities issued by EEI are then listed or quoted.

(f) Provide a transfer agent for all such Registrable Securities not later than the effective date of such Registration Statement.

(g) Enter into such customary agreements (including underwriting agreements on customary terms) and take all such other actions as the Noteholders reasonably request in order to expedite or facilitate the disposition of the Registrable Securities.

(h) Make available to each Noteholder, any underwriter participating in any disposition pursuant to a registration statement, and any attorney, accountant or other agent or representative retained by any such Noteholder or underwriter (collectively, the “Inspectors”), all financial and other records, pertinent corporate documents and properties of EEI (collectively, the “Records”), as shall be reasonably necessary to enable them to exercise their due diligence responsibility, and cause EEI’s officers, directors and employees to supply all information requested by any such Inspector in connection with such registration statement; provided that, unless the disclosure of such Records is necessary to avoid or correct a misstatement or omission in such registration statement or the release of such Records is ordered pursuant to a subpoena or other order from a court of competent jurisdiction, EEI shall not be required to provide any information under this paragraph, (1) if EEI believes, after consultation with counsel for EEI and counsel for the Noteholders, that to do so would cause EEI to forfeit an attorney-client privilege that was applicable to such information or (2) if either (i) EEI has requested and been granted from the SEC confidential treatment of such information contained in any filing with the SEC or documents provided supplementally or otherwise or (ii) EEI reasonably determines in good faith that such Records are confidential and so notifies the Inspectors in writing unless prior to furnishing any such information with respect to (i) or (ii) such Noteholder requesting such information agrees to enter into a confidentiality agreement in customary form and subject to customary exceptions; and provided, further that each such Noteholder agrees that it will, upon learning that disclosure of such Records is sought in a court of competent jurisdiction, give notice to EEI and allow EEI at its expense, to undertake appropriate action and to prevent disclosure of the Records deemed confidential.

(i) Furnish to each Noteholder and to each underwriter, if any, a signed counterpart, addressed to such Noteholder or underwriter, of (i) an opinion or opinions of counsel to EEI, and (ii) a comfort letter or comfort letters from EEI’s independent registered public accountants, each in customary form and covering such matters of the type customarily covered by opinions or comfort letters, as the case may be, as the Noteholders included in such offering or the managing underwriter therefor reasonably requests.

6.3 Registration Expenses. All expenses (“Registration Expenses”) incident to EEI’s performance of or compliance with this Article VI with respect to any registration of the EEI Common Stock issued or issuable upon the exercise of the New EEI Warrants will be borne by EEI, including, without limitation, all registration and filing fees, fees and expenses of compliance with securities or blue sky laws, printing expenses, messenger and delivery expenses, fees and disbursements of counsel for EEI, the expense of any audit, and the, expenses and fees for listing or quoting the securities to be registered on each securities exchange or interdealer quotation system on which similar securities issued by EEI are then listed or quoted. Notwithstanding the foregoing, however, EEI shall not be obligated to pay fees and disbursements of counsel for the holders of New EEI Warrants or Registrable Securities, and all underwriters’ discounts and commissions in respect of the sale of EEI Common Stock or Registrable Securities shall be paid by the Noteholders, pro rata in accordance with the number of shares sold in the offering.

6.4 Preconditions to Participation in Underwritten Registrations. No holder of Registrable Securities may participate in any underwritten registration hereunder unless such person (i) agrees to sell such persons securities on the basis provided in any customary underwriting arrangements and (ii) completes and executes all questionnaires, powers of attorney, indemnities, underwriting agreements, and other documents required under the terms of such underwriting arrangements.

6.5 Indemnification and Contribution.

(a) EEI shall indemnify and hold harmless the Noteholders and each of the Noteholders officers, directors, employees, agents, partners, legal counsel, and accountants, and each controlling person of each of the foregoing (within the meaning of the Securities Act) (collectively, with respect to each Noteholder, a “Noteholder Group”) against any losses, claims, damages, or liabilities, joint or several (or actions in respect thereof), including any of the foregoing incurred in the settlement of any litigation, commenced or threatened, to which any of them may be subject under the Securities Act or any other statute or at common law, insofar as such losses, claims, damages, or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon (i) any untrue statement (or alleged untrue statement) of any material fact contained in any registration statement under which the EEI Common Stock issued or issuable upon the exercise of the New EEI Warrants were registered under the Securities Act or in any preliminary prospectus or final prospectus contained therein, or in any amendment or supplement thereto, (ii) any omission (or alleged omission) to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, or (iii) any other violation by EEI of the Securities Act or any state securities law in connection with any such registration, and shall reimburse each such person entitled to indemnification under this Section 6.5(a) for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such person in connection with investigating or defending any such loss, claim, damage, liability, or action, as and when such expenses are incurred; provided, however, that (x) EEI shall not be liable to any such person in any such case to the extent that any such loss, claim, damage, or liability arises out of or is based upon any untrue statement or omission made in such registration statement, preliminary prospectus, or amendment or supplement thereto in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to EEI by such person, specifically for use therein and (y) the aggregate liability of EEI under this Section 6.5(a) to each Noteholder Group shall be limited to the net amount of proceeds received by the relevant Noteholder from the sale of Registrable Securities pursuant to any such registration statement.

(b) Each of the Noteholders shall severally indemnify EEI and each of EEI’s officers, employees, agents, directors, legal counsel, and accountants, and each controlling person of each of the foregoing (within the meaning of the Securities Act) against any losses, claims, damages, or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof), including any of the foregoing incurred in the settlement of any litigation, commenced or threatened, joint or several, to which any of them may be subject under the Securities Act or any other statute or at common law, insofar as, such losses, claims, damages, or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon any untrue statement (or alleged untrue statement) of any material fact contained in any registration statement under which the EEI Common Stock issued or issuable upon the exercise of the New EEI Warrants were registered under the Securities Act, any preliminary prospectus or final prospectus contained therein, or in any amendment or, supplement thereto or any omission (or alleged omission) to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, in each case to the extent that such untrue statement (or alleged untrue statement) or omission (or alleged omission) was made in such registration statement, preliminary prospectus, or amendment or supplement thereto solely in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to EEI by such Noteholder specifically for use therein, and to reimburse such persons for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred in connection with investigating or defending any such loss, claim, damage, liability, or action, as and when such expenses are incurred; provided, however, that the aggregate liability of any Noteholder under this Section 6.5(b) shall be limited to the net amount of proceeds received by such Noteholder from the sale of Registrable Securities pursuant to any such registration statement.

(c) If (i) an indemnified party makes a claim for indemnification pursuant to this Section 6.5 (subject to the limitations hereof) but it is found in a final judicial determination, not subject to further appeal, that such indemnification may not be enforced in such case or (ii) an indemnified party seeks contribution under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act, or otherwise, then EEI (including for this purpose any contribution made by or on behalf of any director of EEI, any officer of EEI who signed the registration statement, and any controlling person of EEI) as one entity and the holders of Registrable Securities whose fault resulted (in whole or in part) in the applicable losses, liabilities, claims, damages, or expenses, in the aggregate (including for this purpose any contribution by or on behalf of a person who would be indemnified by EEI) as a second entity, shall contribute to the losses, liabilities, claims, damages, and expenses whatsoever to which any of them may be subject, so that such holders of Registrable Securities and EEI are each responsible for the proportion thereof which reflects as nearly as possible the relative fault of EEI and such holders of Registrable Securities in the aggregate in connection with the facts which resulted in such losses, liabilities, claims, damages, or expenses. The relative fault, in the case of an untrue statement, alleged untrue statement, omission, or alleged omission, shall be determined by, among other things, whether such statement, alleged statement, omission, or alleged omission relates to information supplied by EEI or by such holders of Registrable Securities, and the parties relative intent, knowledge, access to information, and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement, alleged statement, omission, or alleged omission. No person guilty of a fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who is not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. For purposes of this Section 6.5, each holder of Registrable Securities and each, of such holders officers, directors, employees, agents, partners, and legal counsel and accountants, and each controlling person of each of the foregoing (within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act) shall have the same rights to contribution as a holder of Registrable Securities, and EEI and each of its officers, employees, agents, directors, legal counsel and accountants, and each controlling person of each of the foregoing (within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act) shall have the same rights to contribution as EEI, subject in each case to the provisions of this Section 6.5. Anything in this Section 6.5 to the contrary notwithstanding, (x) no party shall be liable for contribution with respect to the settlement of any claim or action effected without its written consent and (y) the aggregate liability of any Noteholder to make contributions under this Section 6.5(c) shall be limited to the net amount of proceeds received by such Noteholder from the sale of Registrable Securities pursuant to any registration statement. This Section 6.5 is intended to supersede any right to contribution under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act, or otherwise.

(d) Each party entitled to indemnification under this Section 6.5 (the “Indemnified Party”) shall give notice to the party required to provide indemnification (the “Indemnifying Party”) promptly after such Indemnified Party has knowledge of the commencement of any action, proceeding, or investigation in respect of which indemnity or reimbursement may be sought as provided above; provided, however, that the failure of such Indemnified Party to notify the Indemnifying Party with respect to a particular action, proceeding, or investigation shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party from any obligation or liability (i) which it may have pursuant to this Agreement if the Indemnifying Party is not substantially prejudiced by the failure to notify or (ii) which it may have otherwise than pursuant to this Agreement. The Indemnifying Party shall promptly assume the defense of any Indemnified Party with counsel reasonably satisfactory to such Indemnified Party, and the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the sole cost and expense of the Indemnifying Party. The Indemnified Party will cooperate with the Indemnifying Party in the defense of any action, proceeding, or investigation for which the Indemnifying Party assumes the defense. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any such Indemnified Party shall have the right to employ separate counsel of its own selection in any such action, proceeding, or investigation and to participate in the defense thereof, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of such Indemnified Party unless (x) the Indemnifying Party has agreed to pay such fees and expenses, (y) the Indemnifying Party shall have failed promptly to assume the defense of such action, proceeding, or investigation and employ counsel reasonably satisfactory to such Indemnified Party, or (z) in the reasonable judgment of such Indemnified Party there may be one or more defenses available to such Indemnified Party which are not available to the Indemnifying Party in respect of such action, proceeding, or investigation, in which case the Indemnifying Party shall not have the right to assume the defense of such action, proceeding, or investigation on behalf of such Indemnified Party. An Indemnifying Party who is not entitled to, or elects not to, assume the defense of an action, proceeding, or investigation shall not be obligated to pay the fees and expenses of more than one counsel and appropriate local counsel for all parties indemnified by such Indemnifying Party pursuant to this Section 6.5 with respect to the same action, proceeding, or investigation, unless in the reasonable judgment of any such Indemnified Party a conflict of interest may exist between such Indemnified Party and any other such Indemnified Party with respect to such action, claim, or proceeding. The Indemnifying Party shall not be liable for the settlement by any Indemnified Party of any action, proceeding, or investigation effected without its consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. The Indemnifying Party shall not enter into any settlement in any action, suit, or proceeding to which an Indemnified Party is party unless such settlement includes a general release of the Indemnified Party, with no payment by the Indemnified Party of consideration.
