CONVEYANCE OF TRANSITION PROPERTY

SECTION 2.01. Conveyance of Transition Property. (a) In consideration of the Issuer’s delivery to or upon the order of the Seller of $793,393,327, subject to the conditions specified in Section 2.02, the Seller does hereby irrevocably sell, transfer, assign, set over and otherwise convey to the Issuer, without recourse or warranty, except as set forth herein, all right, title and interest of the Seller in and to the Transition Property (such sale, transfer, assignment, setting over and conveyance of the Transition Property includes, to the fullest extent permitted by the Securitization Law, the right to impose, collect and receive Transition Charges and the assignment of all revenues, collections, claims, rights, payments, money or proceeds of or arising from the Transition Charges related to the Transition Property, as the same may be adjusted from time to time). Such sale, transfer, assignment, setting over and conveyance is hereby expressly stated to be a sale and, pursuant to Section 39.308 of the Securitization Law, shall be treated as an absolute transfer of all of the Seller’s right, title and interest in and to (as in a true sale), and not as a pledge or other financing of, the Transition Property. The Seller and the Issuer agree that after giving effect to the sale, transfer, assignment, setting over and conveyance contemplated hereby the Seller has no right, title or interest in or to the Transition Property to which a security interest could attach because (i) it has sold, transferred, assigned, set over and conveyed all right, title and interest in and to the Transition Property to the Issuer, (ii) as provided in Section 39.304 of the Securitization Law, such rights are only contract rights until the time of such sale, transfer, assignment, setting over and conveyance and (iii) as provided in Section 39.309(c) of the Securitization Law, appropriate notice has been filed and such transfer is perfected against all third parties, including subsequent judicial or other lien creditors. If such sale, transfer, assignment, setting over and conveyance is held by any court of competent jurisdiction not to be a true sale as provided in Section 39.308 of the Securitization Law, then such sale, transfer, assignment, setting over and conveyance shall be treated as a pledge of the Transition Property and as the creation of a security interest (within the meaning of the Securitization Law and the UCC) in the Transition Property and, without prejudice to its position that it has absolutely

transferred all of its rights in the Transition Property to the Issuer, the Seller hereby grants a security interest in the Transition Property to the Issuer (and to the Indenture Trustee for the benefit of the Secured Parties) to secure their respective rights under the Basic Documents to receive the Transition Charges and all other Transition Property.

(b) Subject to Section 2.02, the Issuer does hereby purchase the Transition Property from the Seller for the consideration set forth in Section 2.01(a).

SECTION 2.02. Conditions to Conveyance of Transition Property. The obligation of the Issuer to purchase Transition Property on the Closing Date shall be subject to the satisfaction of each of the following conditions:

(i) on or prior to the Closing Date, the Seller shall have delivered to the Issuer a duly executed Xxxx of Sale identifying the Transition Property to be conveyed on the Closing Date;

(ii) on or prior to the Closing Date, the Seller shall have received the Financing Order creating the Transition Property;

(iii) as of the Closing Date, the Seller is not insolvent and will not have been made insolvent by such sale and the Seller is not aware of any pending insolvency with respect to itself;

(iv) as of the Closing Date, the representations and warranties of the Seller set forth in this Agreement shall be true and correct with the same force and effect as if made on the Closing Date (except to the extent that they relate to an earlier date); on and as of the Closing Date no breach of any covenant or agreement of the Seller contained in this Agreement has occurred and is continuing; and no Servicer Default shall have occurred and be continuing;

(v) as of the Closing Date, (A) the Issuer shall have sufficient funds available to pay the purchase price for the Transition Property to be conveyed on such date and (B) all conditions to the issuance of the Transition Bonds intended to provide such funds set forth in the Indenture shall have been satisfied or waived;

(vi) on or prior to the Closing Date, the Seller shall have taken all action required to transfer to the Issuer ownership of the Transition Property to be conveyed on such date, free and clear of all Liens other than Liens created by the Issuer pursuant to the Basic Documents and to perfect such transfer, including, without limitation, filing any statements or filings under the Securitization Law or the UCC; and the Issuer or the Servicer, on behalf of the Issuer, shall have taken any action required for the Issuer to grant the Indenture Trustee a first priority perfected security interest in the Transition Bond Collateral and maintain such security interest as of such date;

(vii) the Seller shall have delivered to the Rating Agencies and the Issuer any Opinions of Counsel required by the Rating Agencies;

(viii) the Seller shall have received and delivered to the Issuer and the Indenture Trustee an opinion or opinions of outside tax counsel (as selected by the Seller, and in form and

substance reasonably satisfactory to the Issuer and the Indenture Trustee) to the effect that (i) the Issuer will not be subject to United States federal income tax as an entity separate from its sole owner and that the Transition Bonds will be treated as debt of the Issuer's sole owner for United States federal income tax purposes, and (ii) the issuance of the Transition Bonds will not result in gross income to the Seller. The opinion of outside tax counsel described above may, if the Seller so chooses, be conditioned on the receipt by the Seller of one or more letter rulings from the Internal Revenue Service (unless the Internal Revenue Service has announced that it will not rule on the issues described in this paragraph) and in rendering such opinion outside tax counsel shall be entitled to rely on the rulings contained in such ruling letters and to rely on the representations made, and information supplied, to the Internal Revenue Service in connection with such letter rulings;

(ix) on and as of the Closing Date, each of the LLC Agreement, the Servicing Agreement, this Agreement, the Indenture, the Financing Order, the Tariff and the Securitization Law shall be in full force and effect;

(x) the Transition Bonds shall have received a rating or ratings required by the Financing Order; and

(xi) the Seller shall have delivered to the Indenture Trustee and the Issuer an Officers’ Certificate confirming the satisfaction of each condition precedent specified in this Section 2.02.

SECTION 3.02. Due Qualification. The Seller is duly qualified to do business and is in good standing, and has obtained all necessary licenses and approvals, in all jurisdictions in which the ownership or lease of property or the conduct of its business shall require such

SECTION 3.05. No Violation. The consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the fulfillment of the terms hereof do not and will not: (i) conflict with or result in any breach of any of the terms and provisions of, nor constitute (with or without notice or lapse of time) a default under, the Seller’s organizational documents, or any indenture or other agreement or instrument to which the Seller is a party or by which it or any of its property is bound; (ii) result in the creation or imposition of any Lien upon any of the Seller’s properties pursuant to the terms of any such indenture, agreement or other instrument (other than any Lien that may be granted in the Issuer’s favor or any Lien created in favor of the Indenture Trustee for the benefit of the Holders pursuant to Section 39.309 of the Securitization Law or any Lien that may be granted under the Basic Documents); or (iii) violate any existing law or any existing order, rule or regulation applicable to the Seller of any Governmental Authority having jurisdiction over the Seller or its properties.

SECTION 3.07. Approvals. Except for UCC financing statement filings and other filings under the Securitization Law, no approval, authorization, consent, order or other action of, or filing with, any Governmental Authority is required in connection with the execution and

delivery by the Seller of this Agreement, the performance by the Seller of the transactions contemplated hereby or the fulfillment by the Seller of the terms hereof, except those that have been obtained or made and those that the Seller, in its capacity as Servicer under the Servicing Agreement, is required to make in the future pursuant to the Servicing Agreement.

SECTION 3.08. The Transition Property.

(a) Information. Subject to subsection (f) below, at the Closing Date, all written information, as amended or supplemented from time to time, provided by the Seller to the Issuer with respect to the Transition Property (including the Expected Amortization Schedule, the Financing Order and the Issuance Advice Letter relating thereto) is true and correct in all material respects.

(b) Title. It is the intention of the parties hereto that (other than for federal income tax purposes and, to the extent consistent with applicable state tax law, state income and franchise tax purposes) the transfers and assignments herein contemplated each constitute a sale and absolute transfer of the Transition Property from the Seller to the Issuer and that no interest in, or right or title to, the Transition Property shall be part of the Seller’s estate in the event of the filing of a bankruptcy petition by or against the Seller under any bankruptcy law. No portion of the Transition Property has been sold, transferred, assigned or pledged or otherwise conveyed by the Seller to any Person other than the Issuer, and no security agreement, financing statement or equivalent security or lien instrument listing the Seller as debtor covering all or any part of the Transition Property is on file or of record in any jurisdiction, except such as may have been filed, recorded or made in favor of the Issuer or the Indenture Trustee in connection with the Basic Documents. The Seller has not authorized the filing of and is not aware (after due inquiry) of any financing statement against it that includes a description of collateral including the Transition Property other than any financing statement filed, recorded or made in favor of the Issuer or the Indenture Trustee in connection with the Basic Documents. The Seller is not aware (after due inquiry) of any judgment or tax lien filings against either the Seller or the Issuer. At the Closing Date, immediately prior to the sale of the Transition Property hereunder, the Seller is the original and the sole owner of the Transition Property free and clear of all Liens and rights of any other Person, and no offsets, defenses or counterclaims exist or have been asserted with respect thereto.

(c) Transfer Filings. On the Closing Date, immediately upon the sale hereunder, the Transition Property shall be validly transferred and sold to the Issuer, the Issuer shall own all the Transition Property free and clear of all Liens (except for any Lien created in favor of the Holders pursuant to Section 39.309 of the Securitization Law or any Lien that may be granted under the Basic Documents) and all filings and action to be made or taken by the Seller (including, without limitation, filings with the Secretary of State of the State of Texas under the Securitization Law) necessary in any jurisdiction to give the Issuer a perfected ownership interest (subject to any Lien created in favor of the Indenture Trustee for the benefit of the Holders pursuant to Section 39.309 of the Securitization Law and any Lien that may be granted under the Basic Documents) in the Transition Property have been made or taken. No further action is required to maintain such ownership interest (subject to any Lien created in favor of the Indenture Trustee for the benefit of the Holders pursuant to Section 39.309 of the Securitization Law and any Lien that may be granted under the Basic Documents) and to give the Indenture

Trustee a first priority perfected security interest in the Transition Property. All filings and action have also been made or taken to perfect the security interest in the Transition Property granted by the Seller to the Issuer (subject to any Lien created in favor of the Indenture Trustee for the benefit of the Holders pursuant to Section 39.309 of the Securitization Law and any Lien that may be granted under the Basic Documents) and, to the extent necessary, the Indenture Trustee pursuant to Section 2.01.

(d) Financing Order, Issuance Advice Letter and Tariff; Other Approvals. On the Closing Date, under the laws of the State of Texas and the United States in effect on the Closing Date, (i) the Financing Order pursuant to which the rights and interests of the Seller, including the right to impose, collect and receive the Transition Charge and, in and to the Transition Property transferred on such date have been created, is Final and non-appealable and is in full force and effect; (ii) as of the issuance of the Transition Bonds, the Transition Bonds are entitled to the protection of the Securitization Law and, accordingly, the Financing Order, the Transition Charges and the Issuance Advice Letter are not revocable by the PUCT; (iii) as of the issuance of the Transition Bonds, the Tariff is in full force and effect and is not subject to modification by the PUCT except as provided under Section 39.307 of the Securitization Law; (iv) the process by which the Financing Order creating the Transition Property transferred on such date was adopted and approved, and the Financing Order, Issuance Advice Letter and Tariff themselves, comply with all applicable laws, rules and regulations; (v) the Issuance Advice Letter and the Tariff relating to the Transition Property transferred on such date have been filed in accordance with the Financing Order creating the Transition Property transferred on such date and an officer of the Seller has provided the certification to the PUCT required by the Issuance Advice Letter; and (vi) no other approval, authorization, consent, order or other action of, or filing with any Governmental Authority is required in connection with the creation of the Transition Property transferred on such date, except those that have been obtained or made.

(e) State Action. Under the Securitization Law, the State of Texas has pledged that it will not take or permit any action that would impair the value of the Transition Property transferred on such date, or, except as permitted by Section 39.307 of the Securitization Law, reduce, alter or impair the Transition Charges relating to the Transition Property until the principal, interest and premium and any other charges incurred and contracts to be performed in connection with the Transition Bonds relating to the Transition Property have been paid and performed in full. Under the laws of the State of Texas and the United States, the State of Texas could not constitutionally take any action of a legislative character including the repeal or amendment of the Securitization Law, which would substantially limit, alter or impair the Transition Property or other rights vested in the Holders pursuant to the Financing Order or substantially limit, alter, impair or reduce the value or amount of the Transition Property, unless such action is a reasonable exercise of the sovereign powers of the State of Texas and of a character reasonable and appropriate to further a legitimate public purpose, and, under the takings clauses of the United States and Texas Constitutions, the State of Texas could not repeal or amend the Securitization Law or take any other action in contravention of its pledge quoted above without paying just compensation to the Holders, as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction if doing so would constitute a permanent appropriation of a substantial property interest of the Holders in the Transition Property and deprive the Holders of their reasonable expectations arising from their investments in the Transition Bonds. There is no assurance,

however, that, even if a court were to award just compensation it would be sufficient to pay the full amount of principal and interest on the Transition Bonds.

(f) Assumptions. On the Closing Date, based upon the information available to the Seller on such date, the assumptions used in calculating the Transition Charges are reasonable and are made in good faith. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Seller makes no representation or warranty, express or implied, that amounts actually collected arising from those Transition Charges will in fact be sufficient to meet the payment obligations on the related Transition Bonds or that the assumptions used in calculating such Transition Charges will in fact be realized.

(g) Creation of Transition Property. Upon the effectiveness of the Financing Order, the Issuance Advice Letter and the Tariff with respect to the Transition Property and the transfer of the Transition Property pursuant to this Agreement: (i) the rights and interests of the Seller under the Financing Order, including the right to impose, collect and receive the Transition Charges authorized in the Financing Order, become “transition property” as defined in Section 39.302(8) of the Securitization Law; (ii) the Transition Property constitutes a present property right vested in the Issuer; (iii) the Transition Property includes (A) the right, title and interest of the Seller in the Financing Order and the Transition Charges and (B) the right to impose, collect and obtain periodic adjustments (with respect to adjustments, in the manner and with the effect provided in Section 4.01(b) of the Servicing Agreement) of such Transition Charges, and the rates and other charges authorized by the Financing Order and all revenues, collections, claims, payments, money or proceeds of or arising from the Transition Charges; (iv) the owner of the Transition Property is legally entitled to xxxx Transition Charges and collect payments in respect of the Transition Charges in the aggregate sufficient to pay the interest on and principal of the Transition Bonds in accordance with the Indenture, to pay the fees and expenses of servicing the Transition Bonds, to replenish the Capital Subaccount to the Required Capital Level until the Transition Bonds are paid in full or until the last date permitted for the collection of payments in respect of the Transition Charge under the Financing Order, whichever is earlier, and the Customer class allocation percentages in the Financing Order do not prohibit the owner of the Transition Property from obtaining adjustments and effecting allocations to the Transition Charges in order to collect payments of such amounts; and (v) the Transition Property is not subject to any Lien other than any Lien created in favor of the Indenture Trustee for the benefit of the Holders pursuant to Section 39.309 of the Securitization Law or any Lien that may be granted under the Basic Documents.

(h) Nature of Representations and Warranties. The representations and warranties set forth in this Section 3.08, insofar as they involve conclusions of law, are made not on the basis that the Seller purports to be a legal expert or to be rendering legal advice, but rather to reflect the parties’ good faith understanding of the legal basis on which the parties are entering into this Agreement and the other Basic Documents and the basis on which the Holders are purchasing the Transition Bonds, and to reflect the parties’ agreement that, if such understanding turns out to be incorrect or inaccurate, the Seller will be obligated to indemnify the Issuer and its permitted assigns (to the extent required by and in accordance with Section 5.01), and that the Issuer and its permitted assigns will be entitled to enforce any rights and remedies under the Basic Documents, on account of such inaccuracy to the same extent as if the Seller had breached any other representations or warranties hereunder.

(i) Prospectus. As of the date hereof, the information describing the Seller under the caption “The Seller, Initial Servicer and Sponsor” in the prospectus dated March 7, 2012 relating to the Transition Bonds is true and correct in all material respects.

(j) Solvency. After giving effect to the sale of the Transition Property hereunder, the Seller:

(i) is solvent and expects to remain solvent;

(ii) is adequately capitalized to conduct its business and affairs considering its size and the nature of its business and intended purpose;

(iii) is not engaged in nor does it expect to engage in a business for which its remaining property represents an unreasonably small capital;

(iv) reasonably believes that it will be able to pay its debts as they come due; and

(v) is able to pay its debts as they mature and does not intend to incur, or believes that it will not incur, indebtedness that it will not be able to repay at its maturity.

(k) No Court Order. There is no order by any court providing for the revocation, alteration, limitation or other impairment of the Securitization Law, the Financing Order, the Issuance Advice Letter, the Transition Property or the Transition Charges or any rights arising under any of them or that seeks to enjoin the performance of any obligations under the Financing Order.

(l) Survival of Representations and Warranties The representations and warranties set forth in this Section 3.08 shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement and may not be waived by any party hereto except pursuant to a written agreement executed in accordance with Article VI and as to which the Rating Agency Condition has been satisfied.

SECTION 3.09. Limitations on Representations and Warranties. Without prejudice to any of the other rights of the parties, the Seller will not be in breach of any representation or warranty, as a result of a change in law by means of any legislative enactment, constitutional amendment or voter initiative. THE SELLER MAKES NO REPRESENTATION OR WARRANTY, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, THAT BILLED TRANSITION CHARGES WILL BE ACTUALLY COLLECTED FROM CUSTOMERS.

ARTICLE IV

SECTION 4.05. Compliance with Law.

(f) The Seller agrees that, upon the sale by the Seller of the Transition Property to the Issuer pursuant to this Agreement, (i) to the fullest extent permitted by law, including applicable PUCT Regulations and the Securitization Law, the Issuer shall have all of the rights originally held by the Seller with respect to the Transition Property, including the right (subject to the terms of the Servicing Agreement) to exercise any and all rights and remedies to collect any amounts payable by any Customer or REP in respect of the Transition Property, notwithstanding any objection or direction to the contrary by the Seller (and the Seller agrees not to make any such objection or to take any such contrary action) and (ii) any payment by any Customer or REP directly to the Issuer shall discharge such Customer’s or REP’s obligations, if any, in respect of the Transition Property to the extent of such payment, notwithstanding any objection or direction to the contrary by the Seller.

(g) So long as any of the Transition Bonds are outstanding, (i) in all proceedings relating directly or indirectly to the Transition Property, the Seller shall affirmatively certify and confirm that it has sold all of its rights and interests in and to such property (other than for financial reporting or tax purposes), (ii) the Seller shall not make any statement or reference in respect of the Transition Property that is inconsistent with the ownership interest of the Issuer (other than for financial accounting or tax purposes or as required by state or federal regulatory purposes), (iii) the Seller shall not take any action in respect of the Transition Property except solely in its capacity as the Servicer thereof pursuant to the Servicing Agreement or as otherwise contemplated by the Basic Documents, (iv) the Seller shall not sell transition property under a separate financing order in connection with the issuance of additional transition bonds unless the Rating Agency Condition shall have been satisfied, and (v) neither the Seller nor the Issuer shall take any action, file any tax return, or make any election inconsistent with the treatment of the Issuer, for purposes of federal taxes and, to the extent consistent with applicable state, local and

other tax law, for purposes of state, local and other taxes, as a disregarded entity that is not separate from the Seller (or, if relevant, from another sole owner of the Issuer).

SECTION 4.07. Protection of Title. The Seller shall execute and file such filings, including, without limitation, filings with the Secretary of State of the State of Texas pursuant to the Securitization Law, and cause to be executed and filed such filings, all in such manner and in such places as may be required by law to fully preserve, maintain, protect and perfect the ownership interest of the Issuer and the first priority security interest of the Indenture Trustee in the Transition Property, including, without limitation, all filings required under the Securitization Law and the UCC relating to the transfer of the ownership of the rights and interest in the Transition Property by the Seller to the Issuer or the pledge of the Issuer’s interest in the Transition Property to the Indenture Trustee.

The Seller shall institute any action or proceeding necessary to compel performance by the PUCT, the State of Texas or any of their respective agents, of any of their obligations or duties under the Securitization Law, the Financing Order or the Issuance Advice Letter, and the Seller agrees to take such legal or administrative actions, including defending against or instituting and pursuing legal actions and appearing or testifying at hearings or similar proceedings, in each case as may be reasonably necessary (i) to protect the Issuer and the Secured Parties from claims, state actions or other actions or proceedings of third parties which, if successfully pursued, would result in a breach of any representation set forth in Article III or any covenant set forth in Article IV and (ii) to block or overturn any attempts to cause a repeal of, modification of or supplement to the Securitization Law, the Financing Order, the Issuance Advice Letter or the rights of Holders by legislative enactment or constitutional amendment that would be materially adverse to the Issuer or the Secured Parties or which would otherwise cause an impairment of the rights of the Issuer or the Secured Parties. The costs of any such actions or proceedings will be payable by the Seller.

SECTION 4.08. Nonpetition Covenants. Notwithstanding any prior termination of this Agreement or the Indenture, the Seller shall not, prior to the date which is one year and one day after the termination of the Indenture and payment in full of the Transition Bonds or any other amounts owed under the Indenture, petition or otherwise invoke or cause the Issuer to invoke the process of any Government Authority for the purpose of commencing or sustaining an involuntary case against the Issuer under any federal or state bankruptcy, insolvency or similar law, appointing a receiver, liquidator, assignee, trustee, custodian, sequestrator or other similar official of the Issuer or any substantial part of the property of the Issuer, or ordering the winding up or liquidation of the affairs of the Issuer.

SECTION 4.09. Taxes. So long as any of the Transition Bonds are outstanding, the Seller shall, and shall cause each of its subsidiaries to, pay all taxes, assessments and governmental charges imposed upon it or any of its properties or assets or with respect to any of its franchises, business, income or property before any penalty accrues thereon if the failure to pay any such taxes, assessments and governmental charges would, after any applicable grace periods, notices or other similar requirements, result in a Lien on the Transition Property; provided that no such tax need be paid if the Seller or one of its Affiliates is contesting the same in good faith by appropriate proceedings promptly instituted and diligently conducted and if the

Seller or such Affiliate has established appropriate reserves as shall be required in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

SECTION 4.10. Issuance Advice Letter. The Seller hereby agrees not to withdraw the filing of any Issuance Advice Letter with the PUCT.

ARTICLE V

THE SELLER

SECTION 5.01. Liability of Seller; Indemnities.

(a) The Seller shall be liable in accordance herewith only to the extent of the obligations specifically undertaken by the Seller under this Agreement.

(b) The Seller shall indemnify the Issuer and the Indenture Trustee (for the benefit of the Secured Parties) and each of their respective officers, directors, employees, trustees, managers and agents for, and defend and hold harmless each such Person from and against, any and all taxes (other than taxes imposed on Holders as a result of their ownership of a Transition Bond) that may at any time be imposed on or asserted against any such Person as a result of the sale of the Transition Property to the Issuer, including any franchise, sales, gross receipts, general corporation, tangible personal property, privilege or license taxes but excluding any taxes imposed as a result of a failure of such Person to withhold or remit taxes with respect to payments on any Transition Bond; it being understood that the Holders shall be entitled to enforce their rights against the Seller under this Section 5.01(b) solely through a cause of action brought for their benefit by the Indenture Trustee.

(c) The Seller shall indemnify the Issuer and the Indenture Trustee (for the benefit of the Secured Parties) and each of their respective officers, directors, employees, trustees, managers, and agents for, and defend and hold harmless each such Person from and against, any and all taxes (other than taxes imposed on Holders as a result of their ownership of a Transition

Bond) that may at any time be imposed on or asserted against any such Person as a result of the Issuer’s ownership and assignment of the Transition Property, the issuance and sale by the Issuer of the Transition Bonds or the other transactions contemplated in the Basic Documents, including any franchise, sales, gross receipts, general corporation, tangible personal property, privilege or license taxes but excluding any taxes imposed as a result of a failure of such Person to withhold or remit taxes with respect to payments on any Transition Bond.

(d) The Seller shall indemnify the Issuer, the Indenture Trustee (for the benefit of the Secured Parties) and each of their respective officers, directors, employees and agents for, and defend and hold harmless each such Person from and against all Losses that may be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against each such Person, in each such case, as a result of the Seller’s breach of any of its representations, warranties or covenants contained in this Agreement.

(e) Indemnification under Sections 5.01(b), 5.01(c), 5.01(d) and 5.01(f) shall include reasonable out-of-pocket fees and expenses of investigation and litigation (including reasonable attorney’s fees and expenses), except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement.

(f) The Seller shall indemnify the Indenture Trustee (for itself) and each Independent Manager, and any of their respective officers, directors, employees and agents (each, an “Indemnified Person”) for, and defend and hold harmless each such Person from and against, any and all Losses incurred by any of such Indemnified Persons as a result of the Seller’s breach of any of its representations and warranties or covenants contained in this Agreement, except to the extent of Losses either resulting from the willful misconduct, bad faith or gross negligence of such Indemnified Person or resulting from a breach of a representation or warranty made by such Indemnified Person in any of the Basic Documents that gives rise to the Seller’s breach. The Seller shall not be required to indemnify an Indemnified Person for any amount paid or payable by such Indemnified Person in the settlement of any action, proceeding or investigation without the prior written consent of the Seller which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. Promptly after receipt by an Indemnified Person of notice of the commencement of any action, proceeding or investigation, such Indemnified Person shall, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against the Seller under this Section 5.01(f), notify the Seller in writing of the commencement thereof. Failure by an Indemnified Person to so notify the Seller shall relieve the Seller from the obligation to indemnify and hold harmless such Indemnified Person under this Section 5.01(f) only to the extent that the Seller suffers actual prejudice as a result of such failure. With respect to any action, proceeding or investigation brought by a third party for which indemnification may be sought under this Section 5.01(f), the Seller shall be entitled to conduct and control, at its expense and with counsel of its choosing that is reasonably satisfactory to such Indemnified Person, the defense of any such action, proceeding or investigation (in which case the Seller shall not thereafter be responsible for the fees and expenses of any separate counsel retained by the Indemnified Person except as set forth below); provided that the Indemnified Person shall have the right to participate in such action, proceeding or investigation through counsel chosen by it and at its own expense. Notwithstanding the Seller’s election to assume the defense of any action, proceeding or investigation, the Indemnified Person shall have the right to employ separate counsel (including local counsel), and the Seller shall bear the reasonable fees, costs and expenses of such separate counsel if (i) the defendants in any such action include both the Indemnified Person and the Seller and the Indemnified Person shall have reasonably concluded that there may be legal defenses available to it that are different from or additional to

those available to the Seller, (ii) the Seller shall not have employed counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Person to represent the Indemnified Person within a reasonable time after notice of the institution of such action, (iii) the Seller shall authorize the Indemnified Person to employ separate counsel at the expense of the Seller or (iv) in the case of the Indenture Trustee, such action exposes the Indenture Trustee to a material risk of criminal liability or forfeiture or a Servicer Default has occurred and is continuing. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Seller shall not be obligated to pay for the fees, costs and expenses of more than one separate counsel for the Indemnified Persons other than one local counsel, if appropriate.

(g) The Seller shall indemnify the Servicer (if the Servicer is not the Seller) for the costs of any action instituted by the Servicer pursuant to Section 5.02(d) of the Servicing Agreement which are not paid as Operating Expenses in accordance with the priorities set forth in Section 8.02(e) of the Indenture.

(h) The remedies provided in this Agreement are the sole and exclusive remedies against the Seller for breach of its representations and warranties in this Agreement.

(i) Indemnification under this Section 5.01 shall survive any repeal of, modification of, or supplement to, or judicial invalidation of, the Securitization Law or the Financing Order and shall survive the resignation or removal of the Indenture Trustee or the termination of this Agreement and will rank in priority with other general, unsecured obligations of the Seller. The Seller shall not indemnify any party under this Section 5.01 for any changes in law after the Closing Date, whether such changes in law are effected by means of any legislative enactment, constitutional amendment or any final and non-appealable judicial decision.

SECTION 5.02. Merger, Conversion or Consolidation of, or Assumption of the Obligations of, Seller. Any Person (a) into which the Seller may be merged, converted or consolidated and which is a Permitted Successor, (b) that may result from any merger, conversion or consolidation to which the Seller shall be a party and which is a Permitted Successor, (c) that may succeed to the properties and assets of the Seller substantially as a whole and which is a Permitted Successor, (d) which is a successor entity resulting from the division of the Seller into two or more Persons and which is a Permitted Successor, or (e) which otherwise succeeds to all or substantially all of the electric transmission and distribution business of the Seller (or, if transmission and distribution are not provided by a single entity, which provides wire service directly to customers taking service at facilities, premises or loads located in TCC’s certificated service area as it existed on May 1, 1999) (a “Permitted Successor”) and which Person in any of the foregoing cases executes an agreement of assumption to perform all of the obligations of the Seller hereunder (including the Seller’s obligations under Section 5.01 incurred at any time prior to or after the date of such assumption), shall be the successor to the Seller under this Agreement without further act on the part of any of the parties to this Agreement; provided, however, that (i) immediately after giving effect to such transaction, no representation, warranty or covenant made pursuant to Article III or Article IV shall be breached and no Servicer Default, and no event which, after notice or lapse of time, or both, would become a Servicer Default shall have occurred and be continuing, (ii) the Seller shall have delivered to the Issuer, the Indenture Trustee and each Rating Agency an Officer’s Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel from external counsel stating that such consolidation, merger, division or succession and such agreement of assumption comply with this Section 5.02 and that

all conditions precedent, if any, provided for in this Agreement relating to such transaction have been complied with, (iii) the Seller shall have delivered to the Issuer, the Indenture Trustee and each Rating Agency an Opinion of Counsel from external counsel of the Seller either (A) stating that, in the opinion of such counsel, all filings to be made by the Seller and the Issuer, including filings with the PUCT pursuant to the Securitization Law, have been authorized, executed and filed that are necessary to fully preserve and protect the respective interest of the Issuer and the Indenture Trustee in all of the Transition Property and reciting the details of such filings, or (B) stating that, in the opinion of such counsel, no such action shall be necessary to preserve and protect such interests, (iv) the Seller shall have delivered to the Issuer, the Indenture Trustee, the Rating Agencies and the PUCT an Opinion of Counsel from independent tax counsel stating that, for federal income tax purposes, such consolidation, conversion, merger, division or succession and such agreement of assumption will not result in a material federal income tax consequence to the Issuer or the Holders of Transition Bonds and (v) the Seller shall have given the Rating Agencies prior written notice of such transaction. When any Person (or more than one Person) acquires the properties and assets of the Seller substantially as a whole or otherwise becomes the successor, whether by merger, conversion, consolidation, sale, transfer, lease, management contract or otherwise, to all or substantially all of the electric transmission and distribution business of the Seller (or, if transmission and distribution are not provided by a single entity, provides wire service directly to customers taking service at facilities, premises or loads located in TCC’s certificated service area as it existed on May 1, 1999 (except for former customers not taking service from TCC by reason of taking service from Sharyland Utilities, L.P. pursuant to PUCT action in Docket No. 20292)) in accordance with the terms of this Section 5.02, then upon satisfaction of all of the other conditions of this Section 5.02, the preceding Seller shall automatically and without further notice be released from all of its obligations hereunder.

SECTION 5.03. Limitation on Liability of Seller and Others. The Seller and any director, officer, employee or agent of the Seller may rely in good faith on the advice of counsel or on any document of any kind, prima facie properly executed and submitted by any Person, respecting any matters arising hereunder. Subject to Section 4.07, the Seller shall not be under any obligation to appear in, prosecute or defend any legal action that is not incidental to its obligations under this Agreement, and that in its opinion may involve it in any expense or liability.

FORM OF XXXX OF SALE

This Xxxx of Sale is being delivered pursuant to the Transition Property Purchase and Sale Agreement, dated as of March 14, 2012 (the “Sale Agreement”), by and between AEP Texas Central Company (the “Seller”) and AEP Texas Central Transition Funding III LLC (the “Issuer”). All capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined herein shall have the respective meanings ascribed to such terms in the Sale Agreement.

In consideration of the Issuer’s delivery to or upon the order of the Seller of $[_____], the Seller does hereby irrevocably sell, transfer, assign, set over and otherwise convey to the Issuer, without recourse or warranty, except as set forth in the Sale Agreement, all right, title and interest of the Seller in and to the Transition Property identified on Schedule 1 hereto (such sale, transfer, assignment, setting over and conveyance of the Transition Property includes, to the fullest extent permitted by the Securitization Law, the right to impose, collect and receive Transition Charges and the assignment of all revenues, collections, claims, rights, payments, money or proceeds of or arising from the Transition Charges related to the Transition Property, as the same may be adjusted from time to time). Such sale, transfer, assignment, setting over and conveyance is hereby expressly stated to be a sale and, pursuant to Section 39.308 of the Securitization Law and other applicable law, shall be treated as an absolute transfer of all of the Seller’s right, title and interest in and to (as in a true sale), and not as a pledge or other financing of, the Transition Property. The Seller and the Issuer agree that after giving effect to the sale, transfer, assignment, setting over and conveyance contemplated hereby the Seller has no right, title or interest in or to the Transition Property to which a security interest could attach because (i) it has sold, transferred, assigned, set over and conveyed all right in and to the Transition Property to the Issuer, (ii) as provided in Section 39.304 of the Securitization Law, such rights are only contract rights until the time of such sale, transfer, assignment, setting over and conveyance and (iii) as provided in Section 39.309(c) of the Securitization Law, appropriate notice has been filed and such transfer is perfected against all third parties, including subsequent judicial or other lien creditors. If such sale, transfer, assignment, setting over and conveyance is held by any court of competent jurisdiction not to be a true sale as provided in Section 39.308 of the Securitization Law, then such sale, transfer, assignment, setting over and conveyance shall be treated as a pledge of the Transition Property and as the creation of a security interest (within the meaning of the Securitization Law and the UCC) in the Transition Property and, without prejudice to its position that it has absolutely transferred all of its rights in the Transition Property to the Issuer, the Seller hereby grants a security interest in the Transition Property to the Issuer (and, to the extent necessary to qualify the grant as a security interest under the Securitization Law and the UCC, to the Indenture Trustee for the benefit of the Secured Parties to secure the right of the Issuer under the Basic Documents to receive the Transition Charges and all other Transition Property).

The Issuer does hereby purchase the Transition Property from the Seller for the consideration set forth in the preceding paragraph.

EXHIBIT A

The Seller and the Issuer each acknowledge and agree that the purchase price for the Transition Property sold pursuant to this Xxxx of Sale and the Sale Agreement is equal to its fair market value at the time of sale.

The Seller confirms that (i) each of the representations and warranties on the part of the Seller contained in the Sale Agreement are true and correct in all respects on the date hereof as if made on the date hereof and (ii) each condition precedent that must be satisfied under Section 2.02 of the Sale Agreement has been satisfied upon or prior to the execution and delivery of this Xxxx of Sale by the Seller.

This Xxxx of Sale may be executed by the parties hereto in separate counterparts, each of which when so executed and delivered shall be an original, but all such counterparts shall together constitute but one and the same instrument.

THIS XXXX OF SALE SHALL BE CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF TEXAS, WITHOUT REFERENCE TO ITS CONFLICT OF LAW PROVISIONS, AND THE OBLIGATIONS, RIGHTS AND REMEDIES OF THE PARTIES HEREUNDER SHALL BE DETERMINED IN ACCORDANCE WITH SUCH LAW.
