The issuance of the Pubco Shares will not obligate Pubco to issue shares of Pubco’s common stock or other securities to any Person (other than the Premier Power Owners) and will not result in a right of any holder of Pubco securities to adjust the exercise, conversion, exchange or reset price under any of such securities. All of the outstanding shares of capital stock of Pubco are validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable, have been issued in compliance with all federal and state securities laws, and none of such outstanding shares was issued in violation of any preemptive rights or similar rights to subscribe for or purchase securities.
