In order to induce ZCC III to enter into this Agreement and to
accept the Series B Purchase Notes in partial payment of the purchase price of
the Windsystem, the Debtor represents and warrants to ZCC III that:
3.1 Organization and Powers. The Debtor is a limited
-----------------------
partnership duly organized and validly existing under the laws of the State of
California, has full power to own its properties and to conduct its business as
now being conducted and is in good standing in each jurisdiction in which the
character of its business or its ownership of property so requires. The Debtor
has and will have full power, authority and legal right to execute, deliver and
perform its obligations under the Series B Purchase Notes, this Agreement and
the Deed of Trust and to grant the security interests granted under this
Agreement and the Deed of Trust.
3.2 Authorization; Absence of Conflicts; Approvals. The
----------------------------------------------
execution, delivery and performance by the Debtor of the Series B Purchase
Notes, this Agreement and the Deed of Trust (a) have been duly authorized by all
requisite action of the Debtor and the General Partner, (b) will not (i) violate
the Debtor's partnership agreement or any provision of any law or any
governmental or agency rule or regulation applicable to it, (ii) violate or
constitute a default under any indenture, agreement, license or other instrument
to which the Debtor or the General Partner is a party or by which the Debtor or
the General Partner or any of their respective properties may be bound, (iii)
violate any order of any court, tribunal or governmental agency binding upon the
Debtor or the General Partner or their respective properties, or (iv) result in
the creation of any lien of any nature whatsoever upon any properties or assets

hereby, and (c) do not require any license, consent or approval of any
governmental agency or regulatory authority.
3.3 Binding Obligations. This Agreement constitutes, and
-------------------
upon execution and delivery by the Debtor the Series B Purchase Notes and the
Deed of Trust will constitute, legal, valid, and binding obligations of the
Debtor enforceable against the Debtor in accordance with their respective terms.
3.4 Litigation. There are no actions, suits, proceedings
----------
(including proceedings by or before any arbitrator or administrative agency)
pending or, to the knowledge of the Debtor, threatened against the Debtor or the
General Partner which, if adversely determined, would have a material adverse
affect on the financial condition or business of the Debtor.
3.5 Conflicting Agreements. Neither the Debtor nor the
----------------------
General Partner is a party to any agreement or instrument that adversely affects
the operation or nature of the Debtor's business, property or assets or its
ability to perform its obligations under the Series B Purchase Notes, this
Agreement or the Deed of Trust. Neither the Debtor nor the General Partner is in
default under any agreement for borrowed money or under any other material
agreement in any manner which would materially adversely

Notes, this Agreement or the Deed of Trust.
3.6 Public Utility Regulation. Neither the execution or
-------------------------
delivery of the Series B Purchase Notes, this Agreement and/or the Deed of
Trust, nor the due performance by any of the parties thereto of their respective
obligations thereunder, nor the proper exercise of any of their rights
thereunder, will, solely as a result thereof, cause ZCC III to become subject to
regulation as a public utility under the Federal Power Act, as amended, or to be
an "electric utility company" or a "holding company" as defined in the Public
Utility Holding Company Act of 1935, as amended. No orders, approvals or filings
are necessary to prevent classification under Federal law of ZCC III as a public
utility, electric utility company or holding company.

Sacramento, California and proper giving of appropriate notices to the
organizations with which the Debtor's bank accounts are at any time maintained
and the issuers of any insurance policies maintained by or for the benefit of
the Debtor with respect to the Windsystem (such filings and notices being a
condition to ZCC III's taking of any Series B Purchase Note as more specifically
provided in Section 4.2), (i) be perfected under the California Commercial Code
(the "UCC"), (ii) be entitled to all of the rights, benefits and priorities

excluded risks and deductible amounts, and as are issued by insurance companies
reasonably acceptable to ZCC III; provided, however, that the Debtor shall not

cooperate to the extent reasonably necessary in the preparation and verification
of such claims.
6.5 Use of Insurance Proceeds. All insurance proceeds in
-------------------------
excess of $50,000 per loss occurrence paid to the Debtor in respect of a loss
claimed or for which a claim can be made under any property damage policy or
policies or the property loss (whether or not by casualty) coverage provisions
of any windsystem performance policy or policies maintained by or for the
benefit of Debtor (an "Insured Property Loss") shall be used by the Debtor in
accordance with the following:
(a) Upon the occurrence of an Insured Property Loss
in respect of which insurance proceeds are received by the Debtor in excess of
$50,000, the Debtor may elect to replace or repair any property with respect to
which such proceeds were paid by so notifying ZCC III within 60 days after
receipt of such payment, and upon making such election shall have 320 days to
complete the replacement or repair of such property.
(b) If the Debtor does not elect to replace or
repair all or any Turbines included in such property within such 60 day period,
the Debtor shall prepay the Series B Purchase Notes in an amount which bears the
same proportion to the then outstanding principal balance of the Series B
Purchase Notes plus accrued interest thereon as the rated capacity of all
Turbines damaged by such Insured Property Loss and which the Debtor does not so
elect to repair or replace, bears to the total rated capacity of all Turbines
(including such damaged Turbines) then owned by the Debtor. The amount of any
such prepayment shall be allocated among the Series B Purchase Notes in
proportion to their respective unpaid balances of principal and accrued
interest. Any such prepayment shall be applied pro rata or as otherwise required
by applicable tax law or regulation to each outstanding installment so as to
maintain the level payment character of the Series B Purchase Notes.
(c) In the event that the Debtor makes an election
to replace or repair as provided for in paragraph (b) of this Section 6.5, such
proceeds shall be applied to the costs of replacement or repair as such costs
are incurred by the Debtor, with the remaining balance, if any, applied to
prepay the Series B Purchase Notes.
