THIS ASSET PURCHASE AGREEMENT ("Agreement") made and entered into as of the 29 day of June, 2009, by and among Wellsburg Wind Energy LLC, an Iowa limited liability company ("Wellsburg" or "Seller"), Renewable Power Markets Access, Inc., a Delaware corporation ("RPMA"), and MAGAEL, LLC, a Wisconsin limited liability company or its assigns ("Buyer"). Each of Seller, RPMA and Buyer is sometimes referred to as a "party" and they are sometimes referred to collectively as the "parties." RPMA is a party to this Agreement for the sole and limited purpose of conveying the Interconnection Rights (defined in Section 1.2) to Buyer.

RECITALS:

A.

Seller is developing a wind-powered electric generating facility located in Grundy and Xxxxxx Counties, Iowa that will consist of wind turbines with a combined nameplate electric generating capacity of not less than 137 MW nor more than 141 MW (the "Wind Farm"). Seller expects it can bring the Wind Farm to Construction Ready Status (as that phrase is defined in Section 3.3 of this Agreement) before December 31, 2012.

B.

RPMA, an indirect parent company of Wellsburg, owns the Interconnection Rights and is a party for the sole and limited purpose of conveying the Interconnection Rights to Buyer as provided in this Agreement.

C.

Buyer wishes to acquire a site for a wind-powered generating facility that is located in and comprises the Wind Farm (the "Site") that can be in "Construction Ready Status" before December 31, 20 12 (the "Project"). Wellsburg currently owns option rights and other assets related to the Project. An aerial photograph reflecting the preliminary outer boundary of the Site as of the date of this Agreement is attached hereto as Attachment 1. If Buyer chooses to develop the Project, Buyer may, in its sole discretion, choose to do so in up to three phases.

D.

Seller desires to sell its assets comprising the Project; RPMA desires to convey its Interconnection Rights to Buyer; and Buyer is willing to purchase those assets from Seller and Interconnection Rights from RPMA, all upon the terms and conditions set forth herein.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants and conditions contained herein, the parties agree as follows:

ARTICLE I.

In the event that Buyer desires the Government Approvals to be based on turbines other than Vestas V82 turbines on 80 meter towers, Buyer shall provide written notice of the desired type of turbine and tower height within 60 days of the date all the parties sign this Agreement. Seller acknowledges and agrees that Government Approvals shall include a declaratory order of the Iowa Utilities Board that a certificate of public convenience, use and necessity (or other generating certificate) is not required for the Project, or, if appropriate, based on the design of the Project and consultation between Seller and Buyer, a waiver by the Iowa Utilities Board of any applicable generating certificate requirements and notice requirements. The Governmental Approvals shall not require that the Wind Farm or the Project be constructed.

1.1.4

Contracts. Subject to Section 1.3 of this Agreement, all rights of Seller under the easement agreements, deeds, option agreements, landowner documents, wind farm neighbor agreements, wind print agreements, contracts, warranties, guaranties and other agreements necessary for the Project, including those documents related to the properties identified in Schedule 1.1.4 attached hereto (collectively, the "Assumed Contracts"). The parties agree that if Seller is unable to obtain any Assumed Contract for a property in the Site on terms that are the same as the other properties in the Site, Seller may substitute for such property and Assumed Contract a property and agreement or documents that provide Buyer with benefits similar to the property and Assumed Contract that Seller is unable to obtain (each a "Substitute Contract"), on the condition that: (i) the property to which the Substitute Contract (or, if there is more than one Substitute Contract, all Substitute Contracts considered as a group) relates has wind attributes and anticipated development costs comparable to the property(ies) for which the Substitute Contract or Substitute Contracts are substituted; and (ii) the terms and conditions of the Substitute Contract( s) are reasonably acceptable to Buyer. The attachments, schedules, and exhibits to this Agreement shall be amended or supplemented to reflect any substituted properties and related landowner documents agreed to by the parties and, thereafter, the Substituted Contract(s) shall be treated under this Agreement as Assumed Contracts.

The easement agreements, deeds, option agreements, wind farm neighbor agreements, wind print agreements, and other landowner documents obtained by Seller to secure the Site, including but not limited to the Assumed Contracts and the Substitute Contracts: (i) shall be fully assignable from Seller to Buyer and from Buyer to others without the consent of the landowners; (ii) shall not require that the Wind Farm or the Project be constructed; and (iii) except for deeds, shall be terminable by Seller and Seller's assignees upon no more than 30 days written notice to landowners. Additionally, (w) the initial term of the wind farm option agreements will end as of December 31, 2013, and can be extended by the option holder on a year by year basis for up to three additional years though December 31, 2016;

Page 2 of 58

(x) option agreements will not include any option payments other than the initial made by the Seller ($1,000) payment for the term through December 31, 2013, and the $1,000 payments for year by year extensions through December 31, 2016, (y) the wind farm easement agreements obtained by Seller to secure the Site shall contain financing and assignment, and mortgage protection language substantially similar to the financing and assignment, and mortgage protection language contained in the easement agreements for the Top of Iowa III Wind Farm; and (z) the substation/O&M building site purchase option agreement initial term and extension periods will be the same as in (w), above but the option fee will be $1000 per year in 2010, 2011, 2012 and 2013, and $2,000 for each one-year extension period for 2014,2015 and 2016. Buyer shall be responsible for all annual option fees in 2010 and thereafter as provided in Section 3.3.

1.2

Sale and Transfer of Interconnection Rights. Immediately upon execution of this Agreement and payment of the Initial Payment to Seller, and subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, RPMA shall sell, transfer, assign and convey to Buyer any and all rights, deposits, study agreements, study results, applications and authorizations that RPMA has to interconnect the Project to the power grid ("Interconnection Rights") including, but not limited to its interconnection application in interconnection queue number 39569-1, project #H021 filed with the Midwest Independent Transmission System Operator, Inc. ("MISO") April 30, 2008 ("Interconnection Application"). RPMA shall perform all acts necessary to put Buyer in actual and complete possession and control of the Interconnection Rights, including, but not limited to, the delivery to Buyer of such instruments of sale, assignment, conveyance and transfer, duly executed and in form and content satisfactory to counsel for Buyer, as are necessary to vest in Buyer good and marketable title to and possession of all of the Interconnection Rights. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, RPMA shall duly execute and/or deliver, as the case may be, the Interconnection Assignment and Assumption Agreement between RPMA and Buyer in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A ("Interconnection Assignment and Assumption Agreement"). RPMA acknowledges and agrees that Buyer has provided sufficient consideration for the sale and transfer of the Interconnection Rights by making the Initial Payment and agreeing to make the reimbursements to RPMA specified in Section 1.5 of this Agreement. This sale and transfer of Interconnection Rights is subject to the following additional terms and conditions:

1.2.1

Buyer shall in good faith and using all reasonable efforts participate in timely fashion in the MISO interconnection process ("Interconnection Process") with the goal of doing all those things reasonably necessary to advance the Interconnection Application to a signed Interconnection Agreement for the Project. RPMA and Seller acknowledge and agree that Buyer, may, after consulting with RPMA and Seller, take steps to alter the Interconnection Process, including withdrawing the Interconnection Application and in Buyer's sole discretion submitting or not submitting a new or modified interconnection application with MISO; provided, however, that the resulting loss of queue position, incurrence of upgrade or other charges or expenses, or any loss of ability to interconnect the Wind Farm with the power grid shall not relieve Buyer of its obligations to proceed with Closing as required by this Agreement or to make any payments otherwise due under this Agreement.

1.2.2

Notwithstanding the foregoing sale and transfer of Interconnection Rights, Buyer shall consult with RPMA as to its plans and strategy for pursuing the Interconnection Process, and shall inform RPMA of all decisions, rulings and other substantive actions relating to the Interconnection Application or the Interconnection Process taken by Buyer, the Transmission Provider, ITC Midwest, LLC, MISO or others in the Interconnection Process. To the extent permitted under the Interconnection Process RPMA shall be allowed to monitor or participate in conference calls and meetings with MISO and/or the Transmission Provider regarding the Interconnection Application. Buyer shall afford RPMA and its counsel full and free access to all documents and data related to the Interconnection Rights, including but not limited to the Interconnection Process, and afford RPMA and its counsel reasonable access to personnel of Buyer during regular business hours.

1.2.3

Subject to the terms of this Agreement and so long as Buyer is not in default under this

Page 3 of 58

Agreement, Buyer shall have the right to make all decisions relating to the Interconnection Process.

1.2.4

To the full extent permitted by applicable law, Buyer hereby grants to RPMA a purchase money security interest in and to the Interconnection Rights, as well as the proceeds thereof. The security interest secures payment of all amounts payable by Buyer to Seller under this Agreement. With regard to the Interconnection Rights, Buyer authorizes RPMA to file financing statements and amendments and continuation statements to financing statements to the full extent permitted by law and as RPMA otherwise deems necessary or appropriate from time to time. Upon payment in full of the Purchase Price, RPMA's security interest granted by this Section shall terminate, and RPMA agrees to terminate any financing statements, amendments and continuation statements to financing statements and provide Buyer with any reasonable documentation requested by Buyer to evidence the termination of the security interest granted by this Section. In addition to the foregoing, if (i) Buyer is in material default of its obligations to either Seller or RPMA under this Agreement, the Assignment and Assumption Agreement, or the Interconnection Assignment and Assumption Agreement and fails to cure such default as and when provided therein, or (ii) Buyer is in material default of its obligations in the MISO Interconnection Process or (iii) Buyer does not proceed with Closing under circumstances permitted by Section 3.5, then RPMA shall have the right, but not the obligation, to: (x) demand reconveyance of the Interconnection Rights (except the Interconnection Application if it has been withdrawn as permitted in this Agreement) to RPMA (Buyer shall promptly take such actions and execute such documents as are reasonably necessary to effectuate the reconveyance, and Buyer hereby appoints RPMA as its agent to pursue the Interconnection Process until the reconveyance from Buyer to RPMA is completed); and/or (y) make a new application to MISO in RPMA' s name or in the name of Seller for interconnection of the Project.

Buyer shall be responsible for the payment of the following items in compliance with the terms of the respective Assumed Contracts and Substitute Contracts: (i) all subsequent option payments coming due after Seller's payment of the initial option payments; (ii) all easement payments, if any, due and payable prior to Closing; and (iii) all purchase price payments relating to the property upon which the substation, lay down area or operations and maintenance building for the Project will be located. In addition to the foregoing pre-Closing payments, Buyer shall assume and agree to perform Seller's obligations, but only those obligations accruing after the Closing Date, under each of the Governmental Approvals and Assumed Contracts, such assumption to be evidenced by and upon the terms and conditions set forth in the Assignment and Assumption Agreement attached to this Agreement as Exhibit "c" ("Assumption Agreement"). The Assumption Agreement shall be executed by Buyer and Seller at the Closing. Except only as otherwise expressly and specifically provided in the Assumption Agreement with respect to the Governmental Approvals and Assumed Contracts, Buyer does not assume any duties, liabilities, responsibilities, debts or obligations of any kind or nature whatsoever of Seller ("Seller Retained Liabilities").

or other personnel of RPMA

1.5

Purchase Price. The consideration and aggregate purchase price for the Assets (the "Purchase Price") shall be Fifty Thousand Dollars ($50,000) per MW of nameplate generating capacity included in the Project, which will be deemed to be 139 MW for purposes of determining the Purchase Price; provided, if Buyer contemporaneously with signing this Agreement enters into an asset purchase agreement with Bethel Wind Energy LLC for the purchase of the approximately 36 XX Xxxxxx Wind Farm (the "Bethel Purchase Agreement"), the Purchase Price shall be reduced to Forty-five Thousand Dollars ($45,000) per MW of nameplate generating capacity included in the Project, which will be deemed to be 139 MW for purposes of determining the Purchase Price. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that Buyer does not proceed with closing on the Bethel Wind Farm in breach of its obligations under the Bethel Purchase Agreement, the Purchase Price hereunder shall automatically, and without further action by the parties, revert to Fifty Thousand Dollars ($50,000) per MW of nameplate generating capacity included in the Project (the "Purchase Price Reversion"). In the event of a Purchase Price Reversion, Buyer shall immediately pay to Seller a true-up payment in an amount equal to the difference between (a) the amount of the Purchase Price paid by Buyer to Seller prior to the Purchase Price Reversion, if any, and (b) the Purchase Price that would have been paid if the Purchase Price would have been Fifty Thousand Dollars ($50,000) per MW of nameplate generating capacity included in the Project. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that Buyer does not proceed with closing on the Bethel Wind Farm under circumstances in which Buyer is permitted not to close by the Bethel Purchase Agreement, the Purchase Price in this Agreement shall remain unchanged at $45,000 per MW of nameplate generating capacity included in the Project, which will be deemed to be 139 MW for purposes of determining the Purchase Price. RPMA shall not receive any consideration under this Agreement except: (i) reimbursement of deposits, fees, expenses and payments of any other sort or nature, paid by RPMA to MISO as part of the Interconnection Process, and for studies required by MISO, in furtherance of the Interconnection Application between March 1,2009 and the date of the date of this Agreement (except payments, if any, in the nature of penalties or interest on past due payments), all as set forth in Schedule 1.5, and (ii) benefit accruing to RPMA's subsidiary, Wellsburg.

1.6

Payment of Purchase Price. Buyer will pay to Seller Ten Percent (10%) of the Purchase Price ("Initial Payment") upon signing of this Agreement and RPMA's simultaneous delivery of the Interconnection Rights including the executed Interconnection Assignment and Assumption Agreement. The Initial Payment shall be refundable in the event that Buyer does not proceed with Closing under circumstances permitted by Section 3.5 of this Agreement. Otherwise, the Initial Payment shall be non-refundable. The remaining balance of the Purchase Price shall be paid by Buyer to Seller as follows:

1.6.1

An additional Fifteen Percent (15%) of the Purchase Price shall be paid to Seller upon Seller obtaining county zoning permits, in a form and with terms and conditions that allow construction of the Project in a manner reasonably acceptable to Buyer (the "Zoning Payment"). The Zoning Payment shall be refundable in the event that Buyer does not proceed with Closing under circumstances permitted by Section 3.5 of this Agreement. Otherwise, the Zoning Payment shall be non-refundable.

1.6.2

An additional Fifty percent (50%) of the Purchase Price shall be paid to Seller upon delivery on or before December 31, 2012 of all Closing deliverables under this Agreement as provided in Section 3.3 of this Agreement ("Closing Payment").

1.6.3

The final Twenty-five Percent (25%) of the Purchase Price shall be paid to Seller upon the earlier of (i) the Commercial Operation of the Project, or (ii) December 31, 20 15 (the "Final Payment"). For purposes of this Agreement the term "Commercial Operation" shall mean the first day of the month following the date when it has been established that: (i) the Project or phase is able to deliver energy in a continuous way in accordance with Prudent Utility Practice, and (ii) initial performance tests for at least seventy-five percent (75%) of the wind turbines in the Project or phase have been successfully completed. The term "Prudent Utility Practice" shall mean practices, methods

Page 5 of 58

and standards of professional care, skill and diligence engaged in or approved by a significant portion of the electric generation industry for facilities of similar size, type, and design, that, in the exercise of reasonable judgment, in light of the facts known at the time, would have been expected to accomplish results consistent with law, regulation, reliability, safety, environmental protection, applicable codes, and standards of economy and expedition, including, but not limited to, the requirements of the National Electrical Safety Code, the National Electrical Code, the Interconnection Agreement and any applicable governmental code or regulations. Seller anticipates that all landowners participating in the Project and certain neighbors and landowners adjacent to or near the Project will be paid upfront, one time payments, as well as annual payments equal to a total aggregate sum of$11,733,109 (collectively, the "Landowner Payments"), which is the net present value of the total anticipated Landowner Payments over 30 years beginning from the date of the first annual easement payment (at 8.75%) ("Anticipated Cost"). Schedule 1.6.3 sets forth the format and the principles for the calculation of the Anticipated Cost. The Anticipated Cost does not include option payments and land purchase payments to be made by Buyer under Section 1.3. In the event that Seller agrees to make Landowner Payments in excess of the Anticipated Cost (the "Excess Landowner Payments") (as calculated by taking the net present value of the total Excess Landowner Payments over 30 years at 8.75%), then the Final Payment shall be reduced by an amount equal to the Excess Landowner Payments; provided, however, the Final Payment shall not be reduced pursuant to this Section 1.6.3 (x) for any Excess Landowner Payments resulting from acts or omissions of Buyer, including, without limitation, Excess Landowner Payments resulting from changes to Project design or engineering requested by Buyer; or (y) from acts or omissions of Seller unless and until the aggregate of all Excess Landowner Payments exceeds the Anticipated Cost by $382,000 (the "Excess Payment Threshold Amount"), and then only with respect to amounts exceeding the Excess Payment Threshold Amount. Seller also agrees that if its affiliate, Bethel, fails to deliver any of the "Seller's Post-Closing Deliverables" that it is required to deliver under Schedule 4.4 of the Purchase Agreement between Bethel, RPMA and Buyer dated June 29, 2009, as amended from time to time ("Bethel Agreement"), then Buyer shall have the right to setoff any reasonable damages incurred by Buyer as the result of such failure of Bethel to deliver the Seller's Post-Closing Deliverables due under the Bethel Agreement against the Final Payment due Seller, and the Final Payment shall be reduced to the extent of any such damages.

1.6.4

All amounts payable by Buyer to Seller pursuant to this Section 1.6 shall be paid by Buyer to Seller by wire transfer to an account designated in writing by Seller.

1.6.5

In the event that Buyer does not proceed with the Closing under circumstances permitted by Section 3.5, Seller shall refund the Initial Payment and Zoning Payment to Buyer.

1.7

Grant of Security Interest by Buyer; Buyer's Default. To the full extent permitted by applicable law, Buyer hereby grants to Seller a purchase money security interest in and to all of the Assets, as well as the proceeds thereof. The security interest secures payment of all amounts payable by Buyer to Seller under this Agreement. Seller acknowledges that the Assets do not include any tangible personal property placed on the Site by Buyer, whether or not affixed to real property and regardless of whether such tangible personal property is later characterized as tangible personal property or real property, or any improvements to real property made on behalf of Buyer ("Wind Turbine Assets") and that the Wind Turbine Assets shall not be subject to any security interest of Seller. Buyer authorizes Seller to file financing statements and amendments and continuation statements to financing statements to the full extent permitted by law and as Seller otherwise deems necessary or appropriate from time to time, and Buyer agrees to provide Seller with a mortgage or other document, in form reasonably satisfactory to Seller and Seller's counsel, granting Seller a similar security interest in rights to real property conveyed to Buyer by Seller. Buyer represents that (i) its full legal name and mailing address are set forth in Section 7.1.3 of this Agreement, and (ii) it is a limited liability company organized under the laws of the State of Wisconsin. Buyer will be in breach of and default under this Agreement and the security interest granted by this Section only upon the failure to make any payment, when due and payable, of the Purchase Price as provided under this Agreement. The proceeds of any disposition of any of the assets subject to the security interest granted by this Section shall be applied to

Page 6 of 58

payment of the Purchase Price to Seller, and any remaining balance shall be paid to Buyer. Upon payment in full of the Purchase Price, Seller's security interest granted by this Section shall terminate, and Seller agrees to terminate any financing statements, amendments and continuation statements to financing statements and mortgages and provide Buyer with any reasonable documentation requested by Buyer to evidence the termination of the security interest and mortgage granted by this Section.

1.8

MGE Energy Guaranty and Opinion of Buyer's and MGEE's Counsel. Upon the execution and delivery of this Agreement, Buyer shall cause Buyer's holding company, MGE Energy, Inc., a Wisconsin corporation ("MGEE"), to execute and deliver a payment and performance guaranty in the form attached to this Agreement as Exhibit "E" (the "MGEE Guaranty"). Buyer and MGEE have provided Seller and RPMA with the opinion of legal counsel attached hereto as Exhibit F.

1.9

Xxxxxx and Seller Covenant of Cooperation. Xxxxxxx X. Xxxxxx ("Xxxxxx") and Seller agree that Buyer may obtain key person life insurance or buyout disability insurance (or similar insurance coverages) insuring Xxxxxx, under which in Buyer's sole discretion (a) Buyer will be the owner of such policy and have the sole right to designate the beneficiary of the policy; or (b) Seller will be the owner of such policy, but Seller agrees to irrevocably designate Buyer as the beneficiary of the policy. Xxxxxx hereby consents to Buyer or Seller acquiring such insurance, in amounts up to $4 million. Buyer shall pay the cost of any such policy acquired under this section. Xxxxxx and Seller agree to provide reasonable information requested and cooperate with any reasonable requirements of insurers providing such coverage, including but not limited to physical examinations of Xxxxxx.

Arbitration. The parties agree to attempt informally to resolve all disputes arising hereunder, or out of or in relation to the interpretation or performance of this Agreement, through meetings of engineering or other representatives of the parties; provided, however, that any such dispute which cannot be amicably resolved between the parties shall be submitted to binding arbitration upon the written notice of either party delivered to the other of such party's intention to arbitrate and shall otherwise confirm to the requirements set forth below. The alternative dispute resolution procedures which shall apply under this Agreement are as follows:

Each notification of a dispute shall state the nature of the dispute, the facts relied upon, the specific provisions of this Agreement and applicable law which support the notifying party's position, and the amount claimed and the remedy sought by such party. Within thirty (30) days after receipt thereof the parties shall meet, by telephone or otherwise, in an attempt to settle the dispute. During such thirty-day period the party receiving the notification may, but shall not be required to, submit a written response.

If the parties cannot informally settle the dispute within thirty (30) days after receipt of the notice of a dispute, the dispute shall be arbitrated before a panel of three arbitrators in accordance with the provisions of this section and in accordance with the Commercial Arbitration Rules of the American Arbitration Association but not under the auspices of the American Arbitration Association. Judgment upon the award rendered by the arbitrators may be entered in any court having jurisdiction, and the arbitrators may include provisional remedies in their award. The arbitrators shall determine all questions of fact and law relating to any controversy, claim or dispute hereunder, including but not limited to whether or not any such controversy, claim or dispute is subject to the arbitration provisions contained herein.

Any party desiring arbitration shall serve on the other party in accordance with the Commercial Arbitration Rules, the party's Notice of Intent to Arbitrate. The Notice of Intent shall be accompanied by the name of an arbitrator suggested by the party serving the Notice of Intent The party served with the notice shall advise the other party in

Page 21 of 58

writing of the name of its suggested arbitrator. Within twenty (20) calendar days after the Notice of Intent has been made, the two arbitrators shall choose a third arbitrator who shall act as chairperson of the arbitral proceedings. If the two arbitrators chosen by the parties do not agree upon a third arbitrator within twenty (20) calendar days after the filing of the Notice of Intent, then, upon the application of either party, the third arbitrator shall be selected pursuant to 9 U.S.C. § 5, provided, however, that if the federal courts lack jurisdiction, then pursuant to Iowa Code § 679 A.3. The arbitration proceedings provided hereunder are hereby declared to be self executing, and it shall not be necessary to petition a court to compel arbitration. All arbitration proceedings shall be held in Chicago, Illinois. The parties shall bear their own attorney fees, costs and expenses associated with the arbitration. The arbitrators shall make a determination within three (3) months after the dispute is submitted for arbitration. The parties confirm and agree that MGEE may be joined as a party to the arbitration proceeding for purposes relating to the MGEE Guaranty.

Notwithstanding the existence of a dispute and until the arbitrators render a decision, each party shall be obligated to fulfill its obligations and continue its performance in accordance with the terms hereof. Any payment due or payable by one party to the other shall not be withheld on account of the occurrence or continuance of any expert resolution or arbitration proceedings. Neither party shall make any public statements with respect to any disputes hereunder without the prior consent of the other party unless compelled or required to do so by a governmental or regulatory authority having jurisdiction over such party or such dispute or by applicable law.

The parties receiving such notice shall accept or object to the proposed supplement or amendment within 10 days of the parties' receipt of written notice from the party giving the notice; the receiving parties' acceptance shall not be unreasonably withheld or conditioned. Incurrence of material additional expenses or burdens by a party not otherwise permitted or allowed for in this Agreement, shall constitute reason to withhold or condition acceptance of the proposed supplement. Any supplement or amendment to the attachments, schedules and exhibits that are acceptable to the parties shall be attached to this Agreement and used for Closing. Such supplements or amendments will be effective to cure and correct, for all purposes, any breach of any representation or warranty which would have existed if such supplements or amendments had not been made. All references to the Schedules which are supplemented or amended pursuant to this Section 7.1.20 shall be deemed to be a reference to such Schedules as supplemented or amended.

7.1.21

Confidentiality. The parties hereby covenant and agree that, for a period of five (5) years from the date of this Agreement, the parties shall not disclose any Confidential Information to any third party and shall not use any Confidential Information of the other party other than in connection with the purposes of this Agreement. The parties further shall cause each of their Affiliates to abide by this Section 7.1.21.

The term "Confidential Information" will not, however, include information that can be shown to have been (i) previously known by the other parties, (ii) in the public domain through no fault of the other parties or any of their Affiliates, (iii) later acquired by another party from another source if the party is not aware that such source is under an obligation to keep such documents and information confidential; (iv) independently developed hereafter; or (v) the Assets and the Interconnection Rights after ownership of each is transferred to Buyer.

7.1.22

Affiliates. For purposes of this Agreement, the term "Affiliate" means, with respect to any party, any person or entity which, directly or indirectly, controls (whether through ownership of voting securities, by contract or otherwise), is controlled by, or is under common control with, such person or entity.

7.1.23

Public Announcements. Any public announcement, press release or similar publicity with respect to this Agreement will be issued, if at all, at such time and in such manner as determined by Buyer and shall acknowledge Seller as the initial developer of the Project.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties have executed this Agreement as of the day and year first above written.

Schedule 3.3 - Seller's Closing Deliverables

3.3.1

Wind farm option agreements and easement agreements.

(a)

If Buyer at least 180 days prior to Closing: delivers to Seller (i) written notice directing Seller to exercise wind farm option agreements (the "Exercise Notice") and (ii) the Buyer's Information, then at the Closing Seller shall perform, or shall have performed, all acts necessary to bring the Project to Construction Ready Status, provided, the 180 day time frame to achieve Construction Ready Status shall be extended day by day for any delays caused by Buyer's actions or inaction.

(b)

If Buyer provides Seller with an Exercise Notice, but Buyer has not provided Seller with Buyer's Information at least 180 days prior to Closing, Seller will use its best efforts to deliver at Closing the items necessary to bring the Project to Construction Ready Status. Any easement agreements and other Closing Deliverables dependent on the 180 day time frame that Seller is unable to deliver at Closing will be Post Closing Deliverables under Schedule 4.4, to be delivered no more than 180 days after Buyer has provided Seller with Buyer's Information. The 180 day time frame to achieve Construction Ready Status shall be extended day by day for any delays caused by Buyer's actions or inaction.

(c)

If Buyer does not provide Seller with an Exercise Notice, and Seller has provided Seller with Buyer's Information at least 180 days prior to Closing, Seller shall deliver all wind farm option agreements, for the properties identified on Schedule 1.1.4, as may be amended from time to time, amended to include the form of easement agreement containing exhibits showing the location of improvements and compensation to landowners. If Buyer subsequently provides Seller with an Exercise Notice, Seller agrees to bring the project to Construction Ready Status no more than 180 days after Buyer provided Seller with the Exercise Notice, provided, Seller shall not bear any expense related to the cost of post-closing title work, and Buyer and Seller shall reasonably cooperate to minimize additional post-closing, out-of-pocket expenses of Seller and post-closing time required of Seller's personnel to achieve Construction Ready Status. The 180 day time frame to achieve Construction Ready Status shall be extended day by day for any delays caused by Buyer's actions or inaction

(d)

If Buyer does not provide Seller with an Exercise Notice, and Seller has not provided Seller with the Buyer's Information at least 180 days prior to Closing, Seller will deliver at Closing wind farm option agreements for the properties identified on Schedule 1.1.4, as may be amended from time to time, which wind farm option agreements will be amended prior to Closing to include the form of easement agreement, but which will not contain exhibits showing the location of improvements and compensation to landowners. To the extent that Seller is unable to amend wind farm option easement agreements to include exhibits showing the location of improvements and compensation to landowners prior to Closing due to Buyer's failure to provide Buyer's Information, Seller agrees to negotiate on Buyer's behalf exhibits that show the location of improvements and compensation to landowners for either amended wind farm option easement agreements or to enter into easement agreements ("Exhibit Amendments"), determined after consultation with Buyer. The Exhibit Amendments will be a Post Closing Deliverable under Section 4.4, to be delivered no more than 180 days after Buyer has provided Seller with Buyer's Information and, if easement agreements are desired, an Exercise Notice. Seller shall not bear any expense related to the cost of post-closing title work, and Buyer and Seller shall reasonably cooperate to minimize additional post-closing, out-of pocket expenses of Seller and post-closing time required of Seller's personnel to obtain the Exhibit Amendments. The 180 day time frame to deliver Exhibit Amendments shall be extended day by day for any delays caused by Buyer's actions or inaction.

3.3.7

(a) If the parties are proceeding under paragraph 3.3.1 (a) of this Schedule, Title Insurance Commitments or pro-forma Title Insurance Policy, in form and substance the same as those furnished for the Top of Iowa III Wind Farm insuring the land rights and improvements to be erected thereon, subject to reasonable exceptions which do not materially threaten the existence or usability of the wind farm option agreements, easement agreements, landowner documents, or neighbor agreements involving the Project. Title insurance shall be in amounts selected by Buyer and shall be paid for by Buyer. If title insurance is not available, Buyer may elect to obtain an opinion of legal counsel, based on abstract review, satisfactory to Buyer, that Buyer finds sufficient to assure itself that the wind farm easement agreements or wind farm option agreements for properties identified on Schedule 1.1.4 will provide land rights sufficient to enable Buyer to construct the Project on the Site, as well as operate a wind farm on the Site for at least 30 years.

(b) If the parties are proceeding under paragraph 3.3.1 (b) (c) or (d) of this Schedule, the Title Insurance Commitments or pro-forma Title Insurance Policy, delivered at Closing shall be sufficient to assure that, with regard to the wind farm option agreements conveyed to Buyer at Closing (i) title to the subject properties is held by the parties that executed the wind farm option agreements; (ii) the legal descriptions used in the option agreements match those in the county public records of real estate conveyances; (iii) and show liens and encumbrances on the subject properties although Seller will not be required to remove those encumbrances until easement agreements are executed. When easement agreements are executed, Seller shall arrange for, and Buyer shall pay all expense associated with, Title Insurance Commitments or pro-forma Title Insurance Policy in form and substance the same as those furnished for the Top of Iowa III Wind Farm insuring the land rights and improvements to be erected thereon, subject to reasonable exceptions which do not materially

Page 44 of 58

threaten the existence or usability of the wind farm option agreements, easement agreements, landowner documents, or neighbor agreements involving the Project. Title insurance shall be in amounts selected by Buyer and shall be paid for by Buyer. If title insurance is not available, Buyer may elect to obtain an opinion of legal counsel, based on abstract review, satisfactory to Buyer, that Buyer finds sufficient to assure itself that the wind farm easement agreements or wind farm option agreements for properties identified on Schedule 1.1.4 will provide land rights sufficient to enable Buyer to construct the Project on the Site, as well as operate a wind farm on the Site for at least 30 years.

Form MGEE Guaranty

GUARANTY

This Guaranty ("Guaranty") is made and given by MGE Energy, Inc., a Wisconsin corporation ("Guarantor"), to and for the benefit of Wellsburg Wind Energy LLC, an Iowa limited liability company, and its successors and assigns ("Wellsburg") and Renewable Power Markets Access, Inc., a Delaware corporation, and its successors and assigns ("RPMA," and together with Wellsburg, the "Sellers").

Guarantor irrevocably and unconditionally guarantee to Sellers the full payment, performance and satisfaction, when and as due (whether at maturity, upon acceleration or otherwise), of each and all of the Obligations (as that term is defined below). The term "Obligations" means all now existing or hereafter arising liabilities, indebtedness, duties and obligations whatsoever of payment, performance or otherwise incurred to or otherwise owed to either Bethel or RPMA by or from MAGAEL, LLC, a Wisconsin limited liability company ("MAGAEL") under, pursuant to or otherwise in any way arising from, related to or connected with that certain Purchase Agreement by and between Bethel, RPMA and MAGAEL dated of even date herewith (as amended and restated from time to time, the "Purchase Agreement") and/or any agreement, document or instrument contemplated by the Purchase Agreement, including, without limitation, the Assignment and Assumption Agreement, or the Interconnection Assignment and Assumption Agreement, as all of those terms are defined in the Purchase Agreement (collectively, and as amended and restated from time to time, the "Related Agreements"). This Guaranty and the Obligations include, without limitation all losses and damages in any way arising from, related to or connected with any breach, default or nonfulfillment by MAGAEL under any of the Obligations. All Obligations shall conclusively be presumed to have been created and accepted by Sellers in reliance on this Guaranty.

This Guaranty is a continuing and absolute guarantee and is not subject to termination by Guarantor and shall continue in full force and effect until the full and complete payment, performance and satisfaction of all of the Obligations.

Guarantor represents and warrants to Sellers that there are no conditions to the effectiveness of this Guaranty, and that nothing exists to impair the effectiveness of Guarantor's unconditional liability to Sellers under this Guaranty, or to prevent this Guaranty from taking immediate effect as provided in this Guaranty.

Guarantor waives any and all notices and demands whatsoever with respect to the Obligations, MAGAEL or this Guaranty, including, without limitation: (i) notice of acceptance of this Guaranty by Sellers; (ii) notice of the creation or incurring of any Obligation; (iii) any notices or demands under any Obligation; and (iv) any notice of any breach or nonfulfillment of, or default under, any Obligation. Guarantor also waives any rights of subrogation or contribution (whether from MAGAEL or otherwise) Guarantor might have until all of the Obligations have been paid in full and discharged.

Sellers may proceed in the first instance under this Guaranty against Guarantor to enforce or collect any Obligation, without first proceeding against MAGAEL or any other person or entity, and without first resorting to any property at any time held by Sellers as security or collateral for the payment or performance of any of the Obligations or for the payment or performance of Guarantor's obligations under this Guaranty. Guarantor shall pay or otherwise perform an Obligation within five (5) business days of the demand for such payment or other performance by Sellers.

This Guaranty is intended to be and shall be construed as an absolute, continuing and unlimited guarantee of payment and performance. This Guaranty is both supplemental of and additional to any other guarantee or guarantees or indemnity or indemnities which are at any time furnished to Sellers by any person

Page 54 of 58

to secure any or all of the Obligations.

Guarantor agrees that Sellers may take or refrain from taking any and all actions as Sellers, in their sole discretion, may from time to time deem necessary, appropriate or advisable with respect to MAGAEL, or any of the Obligations, without affecting this Guaranty and without any notice to or consent of Guarantor, including, without limitation: (i) extending credit to MAGAEL; (ii) renewing, extending, modifying or amending any of the Obligations, including, without limitation, the time or other terms of payment of any of the Obligations; (iii) exercising or refraining to exercise, or settling, releasing or compromising, any claim, right, remedy or recovery of Seller against MAGAEL or any other person responsible for or liable under any of the Obligations or with respect to any security or collateral for any of the Obligations; and (iv) releasing, applying or otherwise dealing with any security or collateral for any of the Obligations in such order or manner as Sellers may select. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, and in addition thereto to the extent necessary, the obligation of Guarantor under this Guaranty shall not in any manner be affected by any of the following: (i) the failure on the part of Sellers to realize upon, perfect any interest in, or protect any of the Obligations or this Guaranty or any collateral or security for any of the Obligations or this Guaranty, or to take any action with respect to any thereto; or (ii) any impairment, modification, change, release or limitation of any of the Obligations resulting from the operation of any present or future provision of any bankruptcy, insolvency, debtor-creditor or any other law, rule or regulation, or from the decision or order of any court or other applicable authority.

Guarantor releases Sellers from any duty Sellers may otherwise have to disclose to Guarantor any facts which Sellers may now or in the future have concerning any Obligation or the financial condition or any other matter regarding MAGAEL or any other person or entity who is responsible for or liable under any of the Obligations, even if the facts would materially increase the risk of Guarantor under this Guaranty.

Guarantor hereby acknowledges that Guarantor (i) has received a copy of this Guaranty and of the Purchase Agreement and the Related Agreements, as the same are in existence on this date of this Guaranty; (ii) have read and understand this Guaranty and the Purchase and the Related Agreements, as the same are in existence on the date of this Guaranty; and (iii) has had the opportunity to consult with legal counsel before signing this Guaranty.

This Guaranty shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Iowa, but without regard to provisions thereof relating to choice of law or conflicts of law. Guarantor agrees that it may be joined as a party to any arbitration proceeding instituted pursuant to the Purchase Agreement and that judgment upon the award rendered by the arbitrators may be entered in any court having jurisdiction.

This Guaranty is binding upon Guarantor and Guarantor's successors and assigns, and inures to the benefit of and is enforceable by Sellers and Sellers' respective successors and assigns. This Guaranty is not assignable by Guarantor. Sellers may assign this Guaranty, in whole or in part, at any time without any notice to, and without the consent or approval of, Guarantor. Words and phrases in this Guaranty shall be construed as in the singular or plural number, and as masculine, feminine or neuter gender according to the context. The word "person" as used in this Guaranty includes natural persons and all forms of entities. No waiver, amendment or modification of this Guaranty shall be effective or valid unless made in a writing executed by Guarantor and Sellers. No failure or delay by Sellers in exercising any right, power or remedy shall operate as a waiver thereof. This Guaranty shall not be construed more strongly against Sellers. If any term of this Guaranty is invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the term shall be deemed to be amended to the extent necessary to be valid, legal and enforceable, and all of the remaining terms shall in all events continue to be valid and enforceable. This Guaranty, the Purchase Agreement and the Related Agreements constitute the entire agreement among Guarantor and Sellers pertaining to the subject matters of this Guaranty and supersede all negotiations, preliminary agreements and all prior or contemporaneous discussions and understandings of Guarantor and Sellers in connection with the subject matters of this Guaranty.

EXCEPT FOR THE WARRANTIES EXPRESSLY SET FORTH IN THIS GUARANTY, GUARANTOR

Page 55 of 58

MAKES NO EXPRESS WARRANTIES WHATSOEVER, AND GUARANTY HEREBY EXCLUDES AND DISCLAIMS IN ENTIRETY ALL IMPLIED WARRANTIES WHATSOEVER, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, ANY IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, OR NONINFRINGEMENT, WITH RESPECT TO THE AGREEMENT, THIS GUARANTY, OR ANY OTHER MATTER WHATSOEVER. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, Guarantor shall not be liable to Bethel, RPMA, or any other person for any consequential, incidental, indirect, special, or exemplary damages of Bethel, RPMA, or such other person directly or indirectly relating to the breach or alleged breach of any representation, warranty, covenant, or agreement in this Agreement, the Guaranty, or related hereto.
