Further, no Manager, general or limited partner of any Member, shareholder, member or other holder of an equity interest in any Member, or any officer, director, agent or employee of any of the foregoing or any of their Affiliates is obligated personally for any debt, obligation or other liability of the Company solely by reason of their being a Manager, general or limited partner of any Member, shareholder, member or other holder of an equity interest in any Member, or officer, director, agent or employee of any of the foregoing or any of their Affiliates. Further, failure of the Company to observe any corporate or company governance or other formalities or requirements relating to the exercise of its powers or the management of its business or affairs under this Agreement or the Delaware Act will not be grounds for any Member, Manager, general or limited partner of any Member, shareholder, member or other holder of an equity interest in any Member, or any officer, director or employee of any of the foregoing or any of their Affiliates to be held liable or obligated for any debt, obligation or other liability of the Company.

(b) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, the Members agree that, as between the Members, but not for the benefit of any third party or creditor: (i) recourse with respect to each Member’s liability under this Agreement is explicitly limited to its Interest in the Company and any proceeds thereof, and (ii) neither the Company nor any Member shall have any recourse against any other assets of a Member, or any past, present or future incorporators, representatives, officers, agents, directors or any direct or indirect principals, shareholders, general or limited partners, members or other equity or beneficial owners of such Member or any of the assets or property of any of the foregoing, for the payment or collection of any amount, judgment, judicial process, arbitration award, fees or costs or for any other obligation or claim arising out of or based upon this Agreement.

(b) The occurrence of an event described in Section 3.04(a) will not affect:

(i) any accrued rights and obligations of the parties in respect of any breach of this Agreement prior to the occurrence of that event; or

(ii) any provision of this Agreement which is expressed to come into effect on, or survive, the occurrence of that event.

IV. CAPITAL

4.01 Capital Contributions.

(a) The Members acknowledge and agree that as of the Effective Date, the Capital Account balances and Percentage Interests of the Members are as set forth on Exhibit A.

(b) Except with the unanimous approval of all Members, no Member is or will be required or entitled to make any Capital Contribution to the Company, nor is or will any Member be required or entitled to loan any funds to the Company.

(c) Upon the unanimous approval of the Members of a request for any other Capital Contribution, each Member shall, within thirty (30) calendar days thereafter (or such shorter period as is approved by the Board), contribute its pro rata share (in proportion to the relative Percentage Interest of the Members at the time of such request) of the Capital Contribution so requested.

(d) Any Capital Contributions provided for in this Section 4.01 shall be made by wire transfer of funds to the Company account designated by the Board, and any reimbursements or distributions to any Member provided for in this Agreement shall be made by wire transfer of funds to such account as designated by such Member.

4.02 Failure to Make Capital Contributions.

(a) Remedies. If any Member (the “Non-Contributing Member”) fails to timely make any Capital Contribution (or any portion thereof) agreed to by the Members pursuant to Section 4.01 (and if the Non-Contributing Member is part of a Member Group, the other Members of the same Member Group have not made such contribution in place of the Non-Contributing Member), and all other Members (each, a “Contributing Member”) have made their pro rata share of such Capital Contribution, then a Contributing Member may (but is not required to) contribute the portion of such requested Capital Contribution the Non-Contributing Member failed to contribute (if there is more than one Contributing Member, then in proportion to the relative Percentage Interests of such Contributing Member unless they otherwise agree). In the case of any

failure to timely make any Capital Contributions (or any portion thereof) agreed to by the Members pursuant to Section 4.01, then the Contributing Member will elect, by notice in writing to the Company, that all of the Capital Contributions made by the Contributing Member, including both the Contributing Member’s and, if applicable, the Non-Contributing Member’s pro rata portion thereof (collectively, the “Emergency Advance”) will be treated as:

(i) a loan from such Contributing Member to the Company (“Emergency Loan”); or

(ii) a subscription for additional Interests in the Company, on the terms set out below (“Class A Capital Contribution”).

(b) Emergency Loan. If a Contributing Member elects to make an Emergency Advance pursuant to Section 4.02(a)(i), the Company must repay to the Contributing Member the amount of the Emergency Advance plus an additional amount in the nature of “interest” thereon at the Prime Rate plus 2% per annum from the date of the Emergency Advance to the date of repayment of the Emergency Advance in full, by bullet repayment upon ninety (90) days notice.

(c) Class A Capital Contributions. If a Contributing Member elects to make an Emergency Advance pursuant to Section 4.02(a)(ii), the amount the Contributing Member Group has contributed (including both the Contributing Member Group’s and the Non-Contributing Member Group’s portion thereof) will be designated as Class A Capital Contributions (which class of contributions confers the same rights as if it were contributed as a Capital Contribution except that no voting rights attach to the additional Interest issued to the Member on account of its Class A Capital Contributions). An Emergency Advance that is made as a Class A Capital Contribution by Contributing Members will result in the Gross Asset Values of the Company Property being adjusted as provided in clause (ii) of the definition of “Gross Asset Value” set forth in Appendix B and an adjustment to the Percentage Interest of each Member as a result thereof; provided that the adjustment to the Percentage Interests of the Members shall not (1) affect the voting rights of the Members, such that the voting rights of the Members after the Emergency Advance made pursuant to Section 4.02(a)(ii) are the same voting rights each Member had prior to such Emergency Advance.

(d) Remedies Exclusive. The remedies set forth in this Section 4.02 shall constitute the sole and exclusive remedies of each Member for the failure of any other Member to make Capital Contributions at any time; and except as set forth in this Section 4.02, no Member shall have any recourse of any kind to any Member or its Interest or other assets in respect of any such failure.

4.03 Negative Capital Account Balance. A negative or deficit balance in any Member’s Capital Account is not, and will not be deemed to be, an asset of the Company, and no Member with a negative or deficit balance in its Capital Account has or will have any obligation to the Company, any other Member or any third party or creditor to restore

said negative or deficit balance in its Capital Account upon liquidation or dissolution of the Company (and for purposes of this Section 4.03, the references to Capital Account shall be deemed to also include the capital account of any Member for financial or book purposes or as set forth in the Delaware Act or under common law).

V. INTERESTS IN THE COMPANY

5.01 Member Percentages. The Percentage Interests of the Members may be adjusted only as set forth in this Agreement.

5.02 Return of Capital. No Member is or will be liable for the return of the Capital Contributions or Capital Account (or any portion thereof) of any other Member, it being expressly understood and agreed that any such return shall be made solely from the income and assets of the Company and its Subsidiaries and only in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement. No Member is or will be entitled to withdraw or receive a return of any part of its Capital Contributions or Capital Account, to receive interest on its Capital Contributions or Capital Account or to receive any distributions from the Company, except as expressly provided for in this Agreement or under applicable law (and for purposes of this Section 5.02, the references to Capital Account shall be deemed to also include the capital account of any Member for financial or book purposes or as set forth in the Delaware Act or under common law). No Member is or will be entitled to demand or receive property other than cash in return for its Capital Contributions to the Company, its Capital Account or its Interest in the Company.

5.03 Ownership. All assets of any kind (tangible or intangible) of the Company shall be owned by the Company or its Subsidiaries, subject to the terms and provisions of this Agreement and the Formation Agreement. No Member shall have any interest in any specific Company Property. The interests of all Members in the Company are personal property.

5.04 Waiver of Partition. Except as otherwise expressly provided for in this Agreement, each of the Members hereby irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any right or power that such Member might have:

(a) to cause the Company, any Subsidiary of the Company or any of its or their assets to be partitioned;

(b) to cause the appointment of a receiver for all or any portion of the assets of the Company or any Subsidiary of the Company;

(c) to compel any sale of all or any portion of the assets of the Company or any Subsidiary of the Company pursuant to any applicable law; or

(d) to file a complaint, or to institute any proceeding at law or in equity, to cause the termination, dissolution or liquidation of the Company or any Subsidiary.

Each of the Members has been induced to enter into this Agreement in reliance upon the waivers set forth in this Section 5.04, and without such waivers no Member would have entered into this Agreement.

VI. ALLOCATIONS AND DISTRIBUTIONS

6.01 Allocations. Profits, Losses and other items of the Company’s income, gain, loss or deduction will be allocated to the Members in accordance with, and the Members and the Company will be subject to the other provisions provided for in, Appendix B.

6.02 Distributions.

(a) Except as provided in Section 6.03 and subject to (i) the provisions of Section 6.02(b) and (ii) any contractual restrictions binding on the Company or any Subsidiary of the Company (including any debt documents), the Board shall have the sole authority to approve the making of distributions to the Members, in accordance with Section 7.03. Except to the extent provided otherwise in this Agreement (including in Section 6.02(b) and Section 9.06(g)), all distributions made in accordance with the terms of this Section 6.02 shall be made to Members in proportion to their Percentage Interests as of the record date specified for such distribution, provided that, the Board shall adjust the amount of distributions made to the Members pursuant to this Section 6.02(a) to the extent necessary to account for any variation in the relative Percentage Interests of the Members occurring before the record date.

(b) Whenever the Company (or its Subsidiary) receives an amount due to it (or its Subsidiary) under the express terms of a Key Contract (“Contract Fee”), which amount was paid in connection with the early termination of such agreement (for any reason whatsoever, including expiration of a license, failure to renew a license or termination with or without cause by any party to such agreement), the Members shall be entitled to receive a distribution of the Contract Fee in proportion to their Percentage Interests as of the date the Contract Fee is payable to the Company (or its Subsidiary). The amount of the Contract Fee to which the Members shall be entitled (“Distributable Contract Fee Amount”) will be the balance following utilization thereof for any costs incurred directly as a result of such termination and which are the responsibility of the Company (or its Subsidiary), including internal de-mobilization or incremental, unplanned severance costs. The Distributable Contract Fee Amount must be distributed to the Members as soon as practicable after the Contract Fee has been received and the Distributable Contract Fee Amount determined by the Board, in accordance with Section 7.03. The Members and the Company shall take all steps necessary to distribute the Distributable Contract Fee Amount as soon as practicable after the Contract Fee has been received by the Company. For avoidance of doubt, a Person who is a Member at the time a Contract Fee becomes payable to the Company (or its Subsidiary) shall be entitled to receive a distribution equal to that proportion of the Distributable Contract Fee Amount represented by such Person’s Percentage Interest as of the time the Contract Fee becomes

payable to the Company (or its Subsidiary), whether or not such Person is a Member of the Company at the time the Company makes the distribution of the Distributable Contract Fee Amount.

6.03 Distributions in Liquidation. Upon the dissolution and winding-up of the Company, the proceeds of sale and other assets of the Company distributable to the Members under Section 11.02(c)(ii) shall be distributed, not later than the latest time specified for such distributions pursuant to Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(b)(2) to the Members in accordance with the positive balance in their Capital Accounts, after giving effect to the allocation of all Profits, Losses, and other items of the Company’s income, gain, loss or deduction pursuant to Appendix B. With the approval of the Board, a pro rata portion of any net liquidation proceeds or distributions that would otherwise be made to the Members under this Section 6.03 may be distributed by the Company to a trust established by the Board (for the benefit of the Members) for the purposes of liquidating Company and its Subsidiaries’ assets, collecting amounts owed to the Company or any Subsidiary, and paying any contingent or unforeseen liabilities or obligations of the Company and any Subsidiary of the Company arising out of or in connection with the Company or any Subsidiary of the Company. The assets of any trust established under this Section 6.03 will be distributed to the Members (from time to time by the trustee of the trust) upon approval of the Board in the same proportions as the amount distributed to the trust by the Company would otherwise have been distributed to the Members under this Agreement.

6.04 Restrictions on Distributions. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained in this Agreement, the Company shall not be required to make a distribution to the Members on account of their Interest in the Company if such distribution would violate Section 18-607 of the Delaware Act or any other applicable law.

6.05 Deemed Distributions. In the event a governmental authority makes an adjustment described in Section 5(c) of Appendix B that results in a Member being deemed to have paid an amount to the Company, the amount will be deemed to have been distributed 100% to that Member if necessary to cause the relative Capital Accounts of the Members to be in accordance with their relative Percentage Interests.

VII. MANAGEMENT

7.01 Management.

(a) Subject to such matters which are expressly reserved hereunder to the Members for decision, the business and affairs of the Company shall be managed by a Board of Managers (the “Board”) which shall be responsible for policy setting and approval of the overall direction of the Company.

(b) The Company will have employees or agents who are denominated as officers as the Board may designate from time to time (“Officers”). Each Officer will

hold office until the term of his or her written appointment expires, his or her death, or until he or she resigns or has been removed by the Board (whichever first occurs), having such duties and responsibilities and on appointment terms approved by the Board.

(c) Subject to the provisions of this Agreement and to the directives and policies of the Board, an Officer shall have the power, acting individually or jointly, to represent and bind the Company in all matters, solely within the scope of their respective duties.

(d) Managers and Members may engage and consult with legal counsel, accountants or any other advisors or consultants in carrying out their duties under this Agreement, and any act or omission by a Manager or the Members in good faith reliance upon the recommendations, reports and advice given them by any such advisors or consultants shall be full justification for the act or omission.

(e) The Company and each Subsidiary of the Company will conduct their respective businesses in accordance with all applicable requirements of any governmental authorities having jurisdiction over the Company and the Subsidiary and their respective businesses and assets. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, neither the Board nor any other Member has any authority to authorize or approve any loan or other financing or refinancing on behalf of the Company or any Subsidiary of the Company, the effect of which would be to cause any personal liability on the part of any Member or any of its Affiliates, without the advance written consent of such Member.

(f) The Board may establish one or more committees of the Board, each committee to consist of at least two (2) Managers. The Board shall designate an equal number of each Member’s Managers to serve on a committee. Any committee of the Board will have all the powers and authority of the Board, subject to any restrictions set forth in the Board’s resolution establishing such committee.

(g) In addition, each Member shall have the right to consult with and advise the Company, the other Members and the Board on a regular basis with respect to the business and operations of the Company, and each such Member shall at all times have the right, from time to time, to meet (or confer by telephone) on a regular basis with the Officers, the other Members and the Board upon reasonable notice for the purpose of (i) consulting with and rendering advice with respect to any matter, including the management or business of the Company and its Subsidiaries, (ii) reviewing and discussing the day-to-day affairs of the Company and its Subsidiaries and their compliance with the then-current Annual Budget, (iii) discussing strategic operational matters relating to the Company or any Subsidiary of the Company, including with respect to the Business Plan, and (iv) obtaining information regarding their respective activities and prospects and expressing their views thereon.

7.02 Members of the Board.

(a) The Board will initially consist of six (6) individuals (each a “Manager”), three (3) of whom will be appointed by ETR, three (3) of whom will be appointed by Enexus. One or more alternative Managers may be appointed by or on behalf of each Member to act in the absence of any one of its Managers. If an alternate Manager is appointed, he or she:

(i) may, but need not, be a Manager;

(ii) may attend and vote in place of the relevant Manager at any Board meeting at which the relevant Manager is not present;

(iii) is entitled to a separate vote for each relevant Manager the alternate Manager represents in addition to any vote the alternate Manager may have as a Manager in his or her own right;

(iv) is entitled to notice of meetings of the Board in the same way that Managers are entitled to receive notice of such meetings under Section 7.02(i);

(v) is to be counted as a Manager for each relevant Manager the alternate Manager is attending the meeting on behalf of (in addition to being counted as a Manager in his or her own right, if applicable) in determining whether a quorum is present; and

(vi) shall cease to be an alternate Manager immediately and automatically upon (1) the relevant Manager ceasing to be a Manager or (2) the appointor providing notice to the Company revoking the appointment.

(b) In connection with the determination of any and all matters presented to the Board for action, the Members agree and acknowledge that each Manager will be acting as the representative of the Member he or she represents, and each such Manager shall be free to represent the views and positions of such Member and to act in the manner that the Manager believes is in the best interests of the Member that he or she represents, without regard to the interests of any other Member, the Company or any of its Subsidiaries. To the fullest extent permitted by law, including Section 18-1101(c) of the Delaware Act:

(i) no Manager will have any fiduciary duty, duty of care or any other duty to any other Manager or to the Company, any of its Subsidiaries or any Member of the Company who did not appoint him or her; and

(ii) no Member will have any fiduciary duty, duty of care or any other duty to any other Member or to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries.

The Company and each Member therefor waive, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any claim against any Member, its Affiliates, or any Nominee Manager appointed by such Member asserting breach of fiduciary duty, duty of care or any other

duty in connection with the determination of matters presented to the Board or to the Members for action.

(c) A Member may, by written notice to the other Members, remove any Manager or any alternate Manager such Member appointed and appoint a substitute therefor.

(d) The Chairman of the Board (the “Chairman”) will be designated alternately by each Member for two (2) year periods, beginning with Enexus on and from the Effective Date. The Chairman will not have a deciding vote at meetings of the Board.

(e) A Member may, by written notice to the other Members, remove any Chairman such Member appointed and appoint a substitute therefor.

(f) The initial Managers appointed by each of ETR and Enexus and the initial Chairman appointed by Enexus will be the individuals specified in Exhibit D to this Agreement.

(g) The number of Managers may be increased or decreased from time to time by consent of all the Members; provided, however, that at all times, except as provided in the next sentence, ETR and Enexus will have the right to appoint an equal number of Managers. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, if any Member Transfers a percentage of its Interest such that its Interest (or the aggregate Interests of its Member Group, if applicable) is reduced to less than twenty percent (20%) of the total outstanding Interests (such reduction, a “Reduction Event”), then the number of Managers appointed by the Member (or the Member Group, if applicable) suffering such Reduction Event will be immediately reduced to only one (1) Manager, and the number of Managers appointed by any other Member or Member Group (which has not suffered a Reduction Event) will be immediately increased by one (1), so that such Members (the “Majority Members”) will, together, thereafter be entitled to appoint a majority of the Managers appointed by all the Members.

(h) Meetings of the Board will be held at the offices of the Company or at such other places and with such frequency as shall be determined by the Board. Meetings of the Board may be called by or at the request of any Manager for any reasonable purpose. The Chairman or the Secretary shall provide written notice to the Managers of all meetings of the Board as directed by the Board or any Manager in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, and shall provide a written agenda for such meetings as well as any related materials deemed necessary or appropriate or as directed by any Manager for review by the Managers in connection with such meetings. Without limiting the foregoing, any Manager may also provide notice of a meeting of the Board in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

(i) Notice of any special meeting of the Board must be given to each Manager no fewer than two (2) Business Days prior to the date of such special meeting, and notice of any other meeting of the Board must be given to each Manager no fewer than five (5)

Business Days prior to the date of such meeting. Notices of meetings shall be delivered in the same manner set forth in Section 12.03 (other than notices of special meetings, which may also be delivered via the internet or other electronic mail). The attendance of a Manager at a meeting of the Board shall constitute a waiver of notice of such meeting, except where a Manager attends a meeting for the express purpose of objecting to the transaction of any business because the meeting is not properly called or convened.

(j) A majority (in number) of the Managers will constitute a quorum for transaction of business at any meeting of the Board, provided, however, that such majority includes at least one Manager appointed by each Member, unless a Reduction Event shall have occurred, in which case such majority need only include Managers appointed by the Majority Members; and provided further, if less than a quorum of such Managers are present at a meeting, a majority of the Managers present at that meeting may adjourn the meeting to a date not earlier than two (2) days after the first meeting, upon notice being given in accordance with Section 7.02(i). If a quorum is not present at the next meeting (following the meeting that was adjourned), any two (2) Managers will constitute a quorum.

(k) Each Manager has one (1) vote, provided that, at any meeting of the Board at which less than all the Managers (or their respective alternate Managers) appointed by a Member (“Nominee Managers”) are present, each Nominee Manager (or his or her alternate Manager) who is present can exercise a number of votes equal to the number of votes that would have been exercisable by all of that Member’s Nominee Managers, if all of them (themselves or through their respective alternate Managers) were present, divided by the number actually present. Fractional votes will be counted.

(l) Any action required or permitted to be taken at a meeting of the Board may be taken without a meeting if a consent in writing, setting forth the actions so taken, shall be signed by all of the Managers entitled to vote with respect to the subject matter, unless a Reduction Event shall have occurred, in which case the majority signing such consent must include, with respect to all matters, at least one Nominee Manager of each of the Majority Members.

(m) The Managers may participate in and act at all meetings of the Board through the use of a conference telephone or other communications equipment by means of which all persons participating in the meeting can hear each other. Participation in such meetings shall constitute attendance in person at the meeting of the person or persons so participating.

(n) The Board shall establish, from time to time, the amount of any remuneration a Manager shall be entitled to receive from the Company or any Subsidiary of the Company for his or her services as a Manager. Each Manager shall be entitled to reimbursement for reasonable expenses incurred in serving as a Manager, subject to any applicable policies established by the Board from time to time.

7.03 Significant Matters.

Except as expressly provided or contemplated in this Agreement and notwithstanding any provision of the Delaware Act to the contrary, no Member may be removed or expelled from the Company.

9.02 Transfer to Member Group Members.

(a) A Member may, from time to time and in their sole discretion, without the consent of any other Member, sell or assign its Interest in whole or in part to a transferee that is a wholly-owned Subsidiary of that Member’s Parent (a “Group Member

Transferee”), provided that the approval of any Governmental Entity is not required to effect the Transfer and the transfer does not cause a termination of the Company’s federal income tax return under IRC §708.

(b) Each Member and its Group Member Transferees shall be treated as one Member for all purposes of this Agreement. The provisions of this Section 9.02 will not apply to or be deemed to authorize or permit any collateral transfer of, or grant of a Security Interest in, a Member’s Interest in the Company, or in any Company Property (which transfer or grant shall be subject to the other provisions of this Agreement).

(c) A Group Member Transferee that becomes a Member under this Section 9.02 must transfer all its Interest to another wholly-owned Subsidiary of the transferor’s Parent or the transferor’s Parent, immediately before that Member ceases to be a wholly-owned Subsidiary of the transferor’s Parent.

(d) Nothing in this ARTICLE IX shall prohibit or otherwise restrict any Affiliate of a Member that holds an indirect equity interest in such Member from pledging or hypothecating any assets or equity interest in any Person owning a direct or indirect interest in such Member (other than the direct equity interests in the Company or in such Member) in connection with any bona fide secured financing transaction with a third party lender, it being understood that nothing in this Section 9.02(d) shall permit or grant a Security Interest in any Interests directly or of the equity interests in any Member directly.

9.03 Transferees.

(a) Subject to Section 9.05, no Transfer of all or any part of any Interest shall be made (i) except in compliance with all Securities Laws or (ii) if such Transfer would violate any loan commitment or any agreement or any mortgage, deed of trust or other security instrument encumbering all or any portion of the Business or assets of the Company or its Subsidiaries. Further, no transferee of all or any portion of any Interest shall be admitted as a substitute Member unless (1) such Interest is transferred in compliance with the applicable provisions of this Agreement, (2) if applicable, such Permitted Transferee shall have furnished evidence of satisfaction of the requirements of Sections 9.02 and 9.04 reasonably satisfactory to the remaining Members, and (3) such Permitted Transferee shall have executed and delivered to the Company the documentation described in Section 9.04(b). At the request of the Board or of the remaining Members, each such Permitted Transferee shall also cause to be delivered to the Company, at the Permitted Transferee’s sole cost and expense, a favorable opinion of legal counsel reasonably acceptable to the Company, to the effect that (1) such Permitted Transferee has the legal right, power and capacity to own the Interest proposed to be transferred, (2) such Transfer does not violate any provision of any loan commitment or agreement or any mortgage, deed of trust or other security instrument encumbering all or any portion of the Company Property, (3) such Permitted Transfer will not cause the termination of the Company for purposes of Section 708 of the Code or that such termination will not materially adversely affect the Company or any Member, and (4)

such Permitted Transfer does not violate any Securities Laws and will not cause the Company to become subject to the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. As promptly as practicable after the admission of any Person as a Member, the books and records of the Company shall be changed to reflect such admission. All reasonable costs and expenses incurred by the Company in connection with any Permitted Transfer of any Interest and, if applicable, the admission of any Permitted Transferee as a Member shall be paid by such Permitted Transferee.

(b) Any Permitted Transfer shall not relieve the transferor of any of its obligations prior to such Permitted Transfer.

(c) If any Member acquires all of the Interest of any other Member pursuant to this ARTICLE IX, the purchasing Member shall (i) obtain the release of the selling Member’s obligations under any guaranty provided to a financial institution in connection with any indebtedness incurred by the Company or a Subsidiary or any guaranty, surety or indemnity provided to any other Person with respect to the Company or the Business, or (ii) assume the selling Member’s obligations under any guaranty, surety or indemnity referred to in clause (i) and indemnify the selling Member from and against any and all losses, costs, damages, liabilities or expenses which it may incur by reason of, or in connection with, such guaranty, surety or indemnity.

9.04 Admission of Additional Members.

(a) No person may be admitted as an additional Member of the Company (in contrast with admission as a substitute Member in connection with a Permitted Transfer) without the consent of all of the Members.

(b) Any additional or substitute Member admitted to the Company shall execute and deliver documentation in a form satisfactory to the Board accepting and agreeing to be bound by this Agreement and such other documentation as the Board shall reasonably require in order to effect such Person’s admission as an additional or substitute Member. The admission of any Person as an additional or substitute Member shall become effective on the date upon which the name of such Person is recorded on the books and records of the Company following the consent of the Board to such admission.

9.05 Change in Control. Nothing in this Agreement shall prevent or give any Member any consent rights with respect to an indirect Transfer resulting from a transaction whereby a Person, who did not previously do so, acquires control of a Member, if that Member is the ultimate Parent entity of a group, or a Member’s Parent, due to a merger, business combination or similar transaction (whether or not such Member or Member’s Parent is the surviving entity in such a transaction). For the purposes of this Section 9.05, “control” means the possession, direct or indirect, of the power to direct or cause the direction of the management and policies of a Person, whether through the ownership of voting securities or other interests, by contract or otherwise.

9.06 Put Rights upon an Exercise Event.

(a) Definition of “Exercise Event”. An “Exercise Event” occurs when:

(i) a Trigger Event has occurred and the Board does not, within thirty (30) days after the Trigger Event (“Grace Period”): (1) pass a unanimous resolution of all the Managers overriding the automatic termination provisions set forth in each remaining Amended and Restated Operating Agreement and (2) notify Enexus in writing of such decision (“Override Notice”); or

(ii) a party gives notice of the termination (for any reason whatsoever including expiration of a license, failure to renew a license or termination with or without cause) of all Amended and Restated Operating Agreements, in accordance with their express terms, at the same time.

For avoidance of doubt, a decision of the Board whether to issue an Override Notice is not a Significant Matter.

(b) Recurring Grace Period. To avoid doubt, until an Exercise Event occurs, each time a Trigger Event occurs, a new Grace Period shall commence during which the Board may determine whether to issue an Override Notice.

(i) the right to direct the Company in writing to sell to Enexus (or its Permitted Transferee) and Enexus (or its Permitted Transferee) shall have an obligation to buy, all (but not less than all) of the Interest in each of the Company’s Third Party Business Subsidiaries at the First Exercise Price (the “Third Party Business Put Right”); or

(ii) the right to sell, and Enexus (or its Permitted Transferee) shall have an obligation to buy, all (but not less than all) of ETR’s (or its Permitted Transferee’s) Interest in the Company at the Second Exercise Price (the “JV Put Right”),

in accordance with the provisions of this Section 9.06.

(d) Exercise Price. The First Exercise Price or the Second Exercise Price (as the case may be) shall be calculated in accordance with Section 9.06(e) and in accordance with the valuation procedures set forth in Exhibit C. The First Exercise Price or the Second Exercise Price (as the case may be) shall be payable by Enexus by wire transfer in immediately available funds and shall not be subject to financing.

(e) Determination of Exercise Price. At any time within ninety (90) days of the date of the occurrence of the Exercise Event, ETR (or its Permitted Transferee) may

notify the Company and Enexus (or its Permitted Transferee) in writing setting out the Exercise Event and stating that it requires that the First Exercise Price or the Second Exercise Price (as the case may be) be determined (“Appraisal Notice”), the Members agreeing that either Exercise Price is a price reflecting fair market value. Upon issue of the Appraisal Notice:

(i) the Members must promptly meet and seek to agree on the First Exercise Price or the Second Exercise Price (as the case may be); and

(ii) if, within thirty (30) days of the date on which the Appraisal Notice is issued the Members have not agreed on the relevant exercise price (“Discussion Period”), the Members must appoint an independent third party financial advisor (“Expert”) to determine the First Exercise Price or the Second Exercise Price (as the case may be) according to Exhibit C. If the Members cannot agree on the identity of the Expert within fourteen (14) days of the expiry of the Discussion Period, the Chairman shall select an internationally recognized accounting firm that has not provided auditing services to any Member or the JV Group within the last twelve (12) months and is not engaged or reasonably likely to be engaged to provide auditing services to any Member or the JV Group in the next three (3) months, to be the Expert. The Expert shall be instructed to:

(iii) accept submissions from each Member made within fourteen (14) days of the date of the appointment of the Expert;

(iv) determine the relevant Exercise Price in accordance with the valuation procedures set forth in Exhibit C; and

(v) issue to each Member and the Company a certificate specifying the relevant exercise price determined by the Expert as soon as practicable and in any event within thirty (30) days following its appointment.

The Members agree that the decision of the Expert, as detailed in the certificate provided under Section 9.06(e)(v), is final and binding on each of them in the absence of fraud or manifest error. The Members shall bear the costs of the Expert equally and promptly provide all information and assistance reasonably requested by the Expert.

(f) Exercise of Put Right. Within sixty (60) days of the date on which the First Exercise Price or the Second Exercise Price (as the case may be) is determined in accordance with Section 9.06(e), ETR (or its Permitted Transferee) (the “Right Holder”) may (but is not required to) exercise the Third Party Business Put Right or the JV Put Right (as the case may be) by giving written notice to that effect to Enexus (or its Permitted Transferee) (the “Purchaser”) and the Company (“Notice of Exercise”). A Notice of Exercise is irrevocable. The sale and purchase must be completed as soon as practicable following the exercise of the Third Party Business Put Right or the JV Put Right and, in any event, within 10 Business Days after the receipt of any required regulatory approvals. The Purchaser shall take whatever steps are necessary or desirable

to give effect to the sale and purchase contemplated by the Notice of Exercise, including, among other things, appointing the Right Holder as its attorney to do all things necessary to give effect to the sale and purchase contemplated by the Notice of Exercise.

(g) Distribution of First Exercise Price. In the event that the Right Holder exercises the Third Party Business Put Right, each Member shall be entitled to receive a distribution equal to the First Exercise Price received by the Company on completion of the sale and purchase contemplated by the Notice of Exercise in proportion to their Percentage Interests as of the date the First Exercise Price is received by the Company. The amount of the First Exercise Price which the Members shall be entitled to (“Distributable First Exercise Price”) will be the balance (if any) following utilization thereof for any costs incurred directly as a result of the sale and purchase and which are the responsibility of the Company (or its Subsidiary), including internal de-mobilization or incremental, unplanned severance costs and any transaction costs. The Distributable First Exercise Price must be distributed to the Members as soon as practicable after the First Exercise Price has been received and the Distributable First Exercise Price determined by the Board, in accordance with Section 7.03. The Members and the Company shall take all steps necessary to distribute the Distributable First Exercise Price as soon as practicable after the First Exercise Price has been received by the Company.

(h) Closing. At the closing of the sale and purchase, the Right Holder or the Company (as the case may be) must deliver to the Purchaser:

(i) the documentation described in Section 9.04(b); and

(ii) if the Third Party Business Put Right is exercised, a written resignation from each manager or director of each Third Party Business Subsidiary; or

(iii) if the JV Put Right is exercised, a written resignation from each Nominee Manager of the Right Holder.

(i) Lapse of Put Rights. Only one (but not both) of the JV Put Right and the Third Party Business Put Right may be exercised upon the occurrence of an Exercise Event. Accordingly, if:

(i) the Right Holder does not exercise the JV Put Right or the Third Party Business Put Right within the time specified in Section 9.06(f), the JV Put Right and the Third Party Business Put Right will lapse and be no longer capable of exercise; or

(ii) the Right Holder exercises its rights in accordance with Section 9.06(f), the JV Put Right or the Third Party Business Put Right (whichever one is the right that is not exercised by the Right Holder) will lapse and be no longer capable of exercise.

(j) Member Action. Each Member agrees that if a resolution of the Company is required under applicable law or this Agreement to give effect to (or cause the Company to give effect to) any of the transactions contemplated by this Section 9.06, the Member shall attend any meeting that is convened to consider any such resolution and vote in favor of such resolution.

X. EXCULPATION AND INDEMNIFICATION

10.01 Exculpation. Neither any Member (and no Officer, Manager, general or limited partner of any member, shareholder, member or other holder of an equity interest of any Member or officer, director, agent or employee of any of the foregoing) nor any of their Affiliates, shall be liable to the Company, any of its Subsidiaries or to any other Member for monetary damages for any losses, claims, damages or liabilities arising from any act or omission performed or omitted by it and arising out of or in connection with this Agreement or the Business, including (to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law) any action or omission constituting a breach of any fiduciary duty; provided, however, such act or omission was (a) within the scope of authority granted to such Person, (b) not attributable in whole or in part to such Member’s or Person’s criminal misconduct, fraud, bad faith, willful or intentional misconduct or gross negligence, (c) was not attributable to a breach of any express provision of this Agreement, and (d) was taken in good faith, and was reasonably believed to be in the best interest of the Company or the applicable Subsidiary. THE FOREGOING EXCULPATION PROVISIONS OF THIS SECTION 10.01 SPECIFICALLY INCLUDE LOSSES, CLAIMS, DAMAGES AND LIABILITIES ARISING FROM ANY ACT OR FAILURE TO ACT WHICH IS ATTRIBUTABLE, IN WHOLE OR IN PART, TO THE ORDINARY NEGLIGENCE OF THE EXCULPATED PERSON. Except as provided in Section 4.01, no Member (and no Manager, general or limited partner of any Member, shareholder, member or other holder of an equity interest in such Member or officer, director, agent or employee of any of the foregoing) or any of their Affiliates shall be personally liable to the Company or any other Member in connection with this Agreement or the Business (including for the performance of any such Member’s obligations thereunder), but the foregoing shall not relieve any partner or member of any Member from its obligations to such Member. The provisions of this Section 10.01 are intended solely for the benefit of, and shall be enforceable by, the respective indemnitees. The liability of the Managers to the Company or any Member shall be governed by the provisions of Sections 7.01 and 7.02.

10.02 Indemnification.

(a) The Company and its Subsidiaries shall, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, indemnify, defend and hold harmless each Member, each Manager (or alternate) of the Board, the Officers and each general or limited partner of any Member, each shareholder, member or other holder of any equity interest in such Member and any officer, director, agent or employee of any of the foregoing (collectively, the “Indemnitees”), against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities to which such Indemnitee may become subject in connection with any matter arising out of or incidental

to any act performed or omitted to be performed by any such Indemnitee in connection with this Agreement or the Business, including any action or omission constituting a breach of any fiduciary duty; provided, however, that such act or omission was (i) within the scope of authority granted to such Indemnitee and not attributable in whole or in part to such Indemnitee’s criminal misconduct, fraud, bad faith, willful or intentional misconduct or gross negligence, (ii) not attributable to a breach of any express provision of this Agreement, and (iii) taken in good faith and reasonably believed to be in the best interest of the Company or the applicable Subsidiary. THE FOREGOING INDEMNIFICATION PROVISIONS OF THIS SECTION 10.02(a) SPECIFICALLY INCLUDE LOSSES, CLAIMS, DAMAGES AND LIABILITIES TO WHICH SUCH INDEMNITEE MAY BECOME SUBJECT AS A RESULT OF ANY ACT OR FAILURE TO ACT BY SUCH INDEMNITEE WHICH IS ATTRIBUTABLE, IN WHOLE OR IN PART, TO THE ORDINARY NEGLIGENCE OF ANY INDEMNITEE OR ANY OF ITS AFFILIATES. If any Indemnitee becomes involved in any capacity in any action, proceeding or investigation in connection with any matter arising out of or in connection with this Agreement or the Business, the Company shall reimburse such Indemnitee for its reasonable legal and other reasonable out-of-pocket expenses (including the cost of any investigation and preparation) as they are incurred in connection therewith, provided that such Indemnitee shall promptly repay to the Company the amount of any such reimbursed expenses paid to it if it shall ultimately be determined that such Indemnitee was not entitled to be indemnified by the Company in connection with such action, proceeding or investigation. If for any reason (other than criminal misconduct, fraud, bad faith, intentional or willful misconduct or gross negligence of such Indemnitee) the foregoing indemnification is unavailable to such Indemnitee, or insufficient to hold it harmless, then the Company shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such Indemnitee as a result of such loss, claim, damage, liability or expense in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the Company on the one hand and such Indemnitee on the other hand or, if such allocation is not permitted by applicable law, to reflect not only the relative benefits referred to above but also any other relevant equitable considerations. Any indemnity under this Section 10.02 shall be paid solely out of and to the extent of Company assets and shall not be a personal obligation of any Member (or Manager or Officer) and in no event will any Member be required, or permitted without the consent of all of the Members, to contribute additional capital under ARTICLE IV to enable the Company to satisfy any obligation under this Section 10.02.

(b) The provisions of this Section 10.02 shall survive for a period of four years from the date of dissolution of the Company, provided that, (i) if at the end of such period there are any judicial, arbitration or mediation actions or proceedings or any investigations then pending, any Indemnitee may so notify the Company and the other Members at such time (which notice shall include a brief description of each such action, proceeding or investigation and the liabilities asserted therein) and the provisions of this Section 10.02 shall survive with respect to each such action, proceeding or investigation set forth in such notice (or any related action, proceeding or investigation based upon the same or similar claim) until such date that such action, proceeding or investigation is

finally resolved, and (ii) the obligations of the Company under this Section 10.02 shall be satisfied solely out of Company assets.

(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, the obligations of the Company under this Section 10.02 shall (i) be in addition to any liability which the Company may otherwise have and (ii) inure to the benefit of such Indemnitee, its Affiliates and their respective members, partners, shareholders or other beneficial owners and their directors, officers, employees, agents and Affiliates and any successors, assigns, heirs and personal representatives of such Persons.

(d) Except as may otherwise be specifically provided herein or in any other agreement to the contrary, in no event shall any Manager, general or limited partner of any Member, shareholder, member or other holder of any equity interest in any Member or any officer, director, agent, representative or employee of any of the foregoing be liable for any obligations of any Member.

XI. DISSOLUTION AND TERMINATION

11.01 Dissolution. The Company shall be dissolved and the Business wound up upon the earliest to occur of any of the following events:

(a) the sale, condemnation or other disposition of all Company Property and the receipt of all cash consideration therefor;

(b) subject to Section 11.03, the written determination of the Members to dissolve the Company;

(c) the filing by the last remaining Member, or consenting by answer or otherwise to the filing against such Member, of a petition for relief or reorganization or arrangement or any other petition in bankruptcy, for liquidation (in connection with a bankruptcy or insolvency proceeding) or to take advantage of any bankruptcy or insolvency law of any jurisdiction; the general assignment by such Member for the benefit of such Member’s creditors, consenting to the appointment of a custodian, receiver, trustee or other officer with similar powers of a general partner or of any material part of such Member’s property;

(d) the appointment by a court or governmental authority of competent jurisdiction, without consent by the last remaining Member, of a custodian, receiver, trustee or other officer with similar powers with respect to such Member, or if any order for relief shall be entered in bankruptcy or insolvency law of any jurisdiction, or ordering the dissolution, winding up or liquidation (in connection with a bankruptcy or insolvency proceeding) of such Member, or if any petition for such relief shall be filed against such Member, and such petition or order shall not be dismissed within ninety (90) calendar days;

(e) the termination of the legal existence of the last remaining Member of the Company or the occurrence of any other event which terminates the continued membership of the last remaining Member of the Company in the Company unless the Company is continued without dissolution in a manner permitted by this Agreement or the Delaware Act; or

(f) the entry of a decree of judicial dissolution under Section 18-802 of the Delaware Act.

Without limitation on, but subject to, the other provisions in this Agreement, neither the assignment of all or any part of a Member’s Interest permitted hereunder, nor the death, insanity, bankruptcy, insolvency, retirement, resignation or dissolution of a Member will by itself cause the dissolution of the Company. Except as otherwise specifically provided in this Agreement, each Member agrees that, without the consent of the other Members, no Member may, to the fullest extent permitted by law, withdraw from or cause a voluntary dissolution of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries. If any Member withdraws from or causes a voluntary dissolution of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries in contravention of this Agreement, such withdrawal or the causing of a voluntary dissolution shall not affect such Member’s liability for obligations of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries.

11.02 Termination. In all cases of dissolution of the Company, the Business shall be wound up and the Company terminated as promptly as practicable thereafter, and each of the following shall be accomplished:

(a) The Liquidating Member, in conjunction with the Company Accountant, shall cause to be prepared a statement setting forth the assets and liabilities of the Company and all of its Subsidiaries as of the date of dissolution, a copy of which statement shall be furnished to all of the Members within thirty (30) days of such date of dissolution or sooner if reasonably practical.

(b) The Company Property shall be liquidated by the Liquidating Member as promptly as possible, but in an orderly and businesslike and commercially reasonable manner and subject to a liquidating plan approved by the Board. The Liquidating Member may distribute Company Property in kind, only with the consent of the Board.

(c) The proceeds of sale and all other assets of the Company shall be applied and distributed as follows and in the following order of priority:

(i) To the satisfaction (whether by payment or the making of reasonable provision for payment thereof) of (A) the debts and liabilities of the Company and all its Subsidiaries, including debts and liabilities to third parties, and debts and liabilities to any Member so long as such debts and liabilities were advanced or incurred in accordance with the express terms and provisions of this Agreement, (B) the expenses of liquidation, and (C) to the setting up of any

reserves which the Liquidating Member and the Board shall determine to be reasonably necessary for contingent, conditional or unmatured liabilities or obligations of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries arising out of or in connection with the Company or any of its Subsidiaries. Such reserves may, in the discretion of the Liquidating Member, be paid over to a national bank or national title company selected by it and authorized to conduct business as an escrow agent to be held by such bank or title company as escrow agent for the purposes of disbursing such reserves to satisfy the liabilities and obligations described above, and at the expiration of such period as the Liquidating Member may reasonably deem advisable, distributing any remaining balance as provided in Section 11.02(c)(ii); provided, however, that, to the extent that it shall have been necessary, by reason of applicable law or regulation, to create any reserves prior to any and all distributions which would otherwise have been made under this Section 11.02(c)(i) and, by reason thereof, a distribution under this Section 11.02(c)(i) has not been made, then any balance remaining shall first be distributed pursuant to this Section 11.02(c)(i).

(ii) The balance, if any, to the Members in accordance with Section 6.03.

11.03 Member’s Operations. If the Company is dissolved in accordance with Section 11.01(b), and, at the time of the Members’ determination to dissolve the Company ETR (or its Permitted Transferee) and/or Enexus (or its Permitted Transferee) is a Member of the Company, the Members agree prior to making such determination, to cooperate and negotiate in good faith such other arrangements as may be necessary to ensure that the operation by ETR and/or Enexus (or their respective Subsidiaries) of nuclear power plant facilities owned by them (or their respective Subsidiaries) is not materially adversely affected by the dissolution and termination of the Company.

11.04 Liquidating Member. The Liquidating Member is hereby irrevocably appointed as the true and lawful attorney in the name, place and stead of each of the Members, such appointment being coupled with an interest, to make, execute, sign, acknowledge and file with respect to the Company and all of its Subsidiaries all papers which shall be necessary or desirable to effect the dissolution and termination of the Company and each of its Subsidiaries in accordance with the provisions of this ARTICLE XI. Notwithstanding the foregoing, each Member, upon the request of the Liquidating Member or the Board, shall promptly execute, acknowledge and deliver all such documents, certificates and other instruments as the Liquidating Member or the Board shall reasonably request to effectuate the proper dissolution and termination of the Company, including the winding up of the business of the Company and each of its Subsidiaries.

XII. MISCELLANEOUS

(c) Each Member acknowledges that it is aware that its Interest in the Company has not been registered under the Securities Act or under any other Securities Law in reliance upon exemptions contained therein. Each Member understands and acknowledges that its representations and warranties contained herein are being relied upon by the Company, the other Members and the constituent owners of such other Members as the basis for exemption of the issuance of Interest in the Company from registration requirements of the Securities Act and other Securities Laws. Each Member acknowledges that the Company will not and has no obligation to register any Interest in the Company under the Securities Act or other Securities Laws.

12.02 Further Assurances. Each Member agrees to execute, acknowledge, deliver, file, record and publish such further instruments and documents, and do all such other acts and things as may be required by law, or as may be required to carry out the intent and purposes of this Agreement; provided the same does not subject any Member to additional liability and the same is consistent with and does not vary the terms and conditions of this Agreement without the consent of the affected Member.

12.05 Attorney Fees. If the Company or any Member obtains a judgment against any Member by reason of the breach of this Agreement or the failure to comply with the terms hereof, it is the intent of the parties that reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs as fixed by the court shall be included in such judgment. Specifically, however, reasonable attorneys’ fees shall mean actual attorneys’ fees incurred, as opposed to statutory attorneys’ fees determined or calculated as a percentage of the amount owed.

12.06 Titles and Headings. Titles and headings to Sections and Articles are inserted for the convenience of reference only and are not intended to be a part of or to affect the meaning or interpretation of this Agreement.

12.08 Successors and Assigns.

This Agreement may not be assigned by the parties hereto, except in connection with a Transfer of a Member’s Interest in accordance with the provisions of ARTICLE IX hereof.

12.09 Extension Not a Waiver. No delay or omission in the exercise of any power, remedy or right herein provided or otherwise available to a Member or the Company shall impair or affect the right of such Member or the Company thereafter to exercise the same.

12.10 Creditors Not Benefited. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, nothing contained in this Agreement will, or is intended or will be deemed to, benefit any creditor of the Company, of any of its Subsidiaries or of any Member, and no creditor of the Company, of any of its Subsidiaries or of any Member will have any rights, interests or claims hereunder, be entitled to any benefits hereunder or be entitled to require the Company, the Board, any of its Subsidiaries or any Members to solicit or accept, or the Members to make, any loan, advance or additional capital contribution to or for the benefit of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or to enforce any right which the Company, any of its Subsidiaries or any Member may have against any other Member, or which any Member may have against the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, under this Agreement or otherwise.

12.11 Recalculation of Interest. If any applicable law is ever judicially interpreted so as to deem any distribution, contribution, payment or other amount received by any Member or the Company under this Agreement as interest and so as to render any such amount in excess of the maximum rate or amount of interest permitted by applicable law, then it is the express intent of the Members and the Company that all amounts in excess of the highest lawful rate or amount theretofore collected be credited against any other distributions, contributions, payments or other amounts to be paid by the recipient of the excess amount or refunded to the appropriate Person, and the provisions of this Agreement immediately be deemed reformed, without the necessity of the execution of any new document, so as to comply with the applicable law, but so as to

permit the payment of the fullest amount otherwise required hereunder. All sums paid or agreed to be paid that are judicially determined to be interest shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law, be amortized, prorated, allocated and spread throughout the term of such obligation so that the rate or amount of interest on account of such obligation does not exceed the maximum rate or amount of interest permitted under applicable law.
