the benefits and assume the obligations thereunder in accordance with this Agreement, including

including interest and corporate overhead, incurred by Seller or its Affiliates from February 1,
2011 to and including the Closing Date in connection with construction of the Generating Facility,
which amount Seller shall provide to Buyer at least five Business Days prior to the Closing Date,
plus (B) $125,000.00 for every day from July 15, 2011 to the Closing Date, if any, if Buyer
has provided Seller with the notice contemplated by Section 11.01(b), (as so increased, the
“Purchase Price”) in cash, free and clear of any withholding or deduction for applicable Taxes.
(b) The Parties shall allocate the Purchase Price and the Assumed Liabilities, as of the
Closing, among the classes of assets (as described in the Treasury regulations promulgated under
section 338 of the Code) to which the Purchased Assets and the other Transaction Agreements relate
(the “Allocation”) in accordance with section 1060 of the Code and the regulations promulgated
thereunder (or any similar provision of local or state Tax Law), Seller shall prepare and submit a
proposed Allocation to Buyer not later than twenty (20) days prior to Closing for Buyer’s review
and approval and Buyer shall formally respond to such proposed Allocation no later than ten (10)
days from receipt thereof. The Parties shall use commercially reasonable efforts to agree upon the
Allocation prior to Closing and to include the respective Forms 8594 in the transcript for the
Closing. In the event the Parties are unable to agree upon the Allocation, the determination shall
be made by an independent “big four” accounting firm selected by the Parties. For all Tax
purposes, the Transactions contemplated by this Agreement shall be reported in a manner consistent
with the final Allocation and the terms of the Transaction Agreements and no Party, or any of such
Parties’ Affiliates, shall take any position inconsistent therewith in any
Tax Return (including IRS Form 8594), in any Tax refund claim, in any litigation or otherwise,
unless required by applicable Law.
19
(c) [reserved].
(d) Between the Execution Date and the Closing Date, as promptly as practicable after the end
of each calendar month Seller shall provide Buyer with a report of all costs, including interest
and corporate overhead, incurred by Seller or its Affiliates in such preceding calendar month
(including, with respect to the first such report, incurred in February 2011) in connection with
construction of the Generating Facility.
(e) Transmission Uprate.
(i) Subject to clause (iii) below, from and after the Closing Date until the
twenty-four (24) month anniversary of the Closing Date, or such later time as may be
requested by Buyer and approved by Seller, such approval not to be unreasonably withheld,
Seller may at its own cost and expense install such additional equipment or engage in other
activities (collectively, the “Uprate Remedies”) at the Generating Facility as needed to
achieve transmission export capacity in excess of 685 MW (“Additional Capacity”), and Buyer
shall reasonably cooperate, provide access to the Generating Facility and assist Seller
and/or its contractors in connection therewith, and the parties shall reasonably cooperate
to (A) avoid or mitigate any Uprate Remedy that would materially interfere with the
continuous operation of the Generating Facility, cause the imposition of any material
increase in its operating costs over what otherwise would be expected or materially increase
exposure to material PJM Reliability Pricing Model penalties and (B) agree on reasonable
outage opportunities with respect to the Uprate Remedies.
(ii) If (A) prior to the forty-two (42) month anniversary of the Closing Date, the
relevant transmission authorities grant permission to export Additional Capacity; and (B)
the Generating Facility is or becomes, prior to the twenty-four (24) month anniversary of
the Closing Date, or such later time as may be requested by Buyer and approved by Seller,
such approval not to be unreasonably withheld, mechanically capable of sustained production
of, and has the mechanical ability to export, Additional Capacity
then Buyer shall pay to Seller, within thirty (30) days of the later to occur of (A) or
(B) above, an additional $708,029.00 per MW of Additional Capacity (or pro rata portion
thereof rounded to the nearest tenth of a MW) up to 707 permitted MW, all as additional
Purchase Price.
20
(iii) Buyer shall be entitled to reject a Seller proposed Uprate Remedy if Buyer in
good faith reasonably believes that such actions would cause material damage to the
Generating Facility, materially increase its operating costs over what otherwise would be
expected or require material capital expenditures by Buyer. But if prior to the five (5)
year anniversary of the Closing Date, Buyer implements a Seller-proposed Uprate Remedy which
Buyer rejected or takes actions substantially similar to those in a Seller-proposed Uprate
Remedy which Buyer rejected, and the Generating Facility, as a result, actually exports
generation transmission in excess of 685 MW, then Buyer shall promptly pay to Seller an
additional $708,029.00 per MW of Additional Capacity (or pro rata portion thereof rounded to
the nearest tenth of a MW) up to 707 permitted MW, less any reasonable documented
costs incurred by Buyer to implement the Seller proposed Uprate Remedy to create the
Additional Capacity, all as additional Purchase Price.
(f) Low Production.
(i) Both Parties expect that the Generating Facility will, at Closing, meet the
conditions set forth in Section 9.02(d)(ii) (the “Expected Criteria”, and failure of the
Generating Facility to reach the Expected Criteria within a reasonable time (not to exceed
90 days, and with Buyer to provide Seller with notice thereof within 120 days) following
commissioning of the Generating Facility (which commissioning Buyer shall promptly inform
Seller of in writing), but not including a de minimis failure to meet the specified heat
rate value, being a “Criteria Failure”).
(ii) Should a Criteria Failure be determined (pursuant to clause (viii) below) to have
occurred solely through the fault of actions taken by Seller or its Affiliates (or Persons
acting under their direction) prior to the Closing, Seller shall, in its sole discretion,
choose to (A) cure the Criteria Failure at its own expense (and Buyer shall reasonably
cooperate, provide access to the Generating Facility and assist Seller and/or
its contractors in connection therewith) or (B) promptly pay to Buyer $708,029.00 for
each MW (or pro rata portion thereof rounded to the nearest tenth of a MW) below the
Expected Criteria that the Generating Facility is capable of sustained production.
21
(iii) Should a Criteria Failure be determined (pursuant to clause (viii) below) to have
occurred solely through the fault of actions taken after the Closing, Seller shall owe no
amounts pursuant to this Section 2.06(f).
(iv) Should a Criteria Failure be determined (pursuant to clause (viii) below) to have
occurred both through the fault of (X) actions taken by Seller or its Affiliates (or Persons
acting under their direction) prior to the Closing and (Y) actions occurring after the
Closing, but where the actions taken by Seller or its Affiliates (or Persons acting under
their direction) prior to the Closing caused a portion of the Criteria Failure (the
percentage of the cause of the Criteria Failure caused by actions taken by Seller or its
Affiliates (or Persons acting under their direction) prior to the Closing being the “Seller
Percentage”), then either (A) the Parties shall agree to cure the Criteria Failure with
Seller paying the Seller Percentage of the cost of such cure and Buyer paying the remaining
cost of such cure (and Buyer shall reasonably cooperate, provide access to the Generating
Facility and assist Seller and/or its contractors in connection therewith) or (B) if the
Parties do not so agree, Seller shall promptly pay to Buyer $708,029.00 times the Seller
Percentage for each MW (or pro rata portion thereof rounded to the nearest tenth of a MW)
below the Expected Criteria that the Generating Facility is capable of sustained production.
(v) Should a Criteria Failure be determined (pursuant to clause (viii) below) to have
occurred because of a defect that occurred through neither the fault of actions taken by
Seller or its Affiliates prior to the Closing or the fault of actions taken after the
Closing, then either (A) the Parties shall agree to cure the Criteria Failure with Seller
paying 50% of the cost of such cure and Buyer paying 50% of the cost of such cure (and Buyer
shall reasonably cooperate, provide access to the Generating Facility and assist Seller
and/or its contractors in connection therewith) or (B) if the Parties do not so agree,
Seller shall promptly pay to Buyer $354,014.50 for each MW (or pro rata portion
thereof rounded to the nearest tenth of a MW) below the Expected Criteria that the
Generating Facility is capable of sustained production.
22
(vi) The maximum liability of Seller pursuant to Section 2.06(f)(ii) or (iv) is
$72,750,000.00 in the aggregate, and the maximum liability of Seller pursuant to Section
2.06(f)(v) is $36,375,000.00 in the aggregate.
(vii) Notwithstanding anything else set forth in this Section 2.06(f), Seller shall
retain full rights to perform an Uprate Remedy as set forth in Section 2.06(e) above.
(viii) Should the Parties be unable to determine which of clauses (ii), (iii), (iv) or
(v) above shall apply, the Parties shall reasonably jointly select an independent engineer
or engineering firm of favorable reputation, that has not worked for either Party or their
Affiliates for a period of one (1) year prior to such dispute (and shall use commercially
reasonable efforts to select such engineer or firm prior to the Closing), to investigate and
provide a report containing findings and a recommendation regarding whether clauses (ii),
(iii), or (iv) above shall apply. The independent engineer shall issue a draft report and
the Parties shall have not less than thirty (30) days to provide comments on the same.
After consideration of the comments, the independent engineer shall issue a final report.
The costs of the independent engineer shall be shared equally by the Parties and,
notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the independent engineer’s final
report shall be binding upon the Parties.
Section 2.07 Closing. The closing (the “Closing”) of the purchase and sale of the Purchased
Assets, and the assignment and assumption of the Assumed Liabilities hereunder, shall take place at
the offices of Xxxxxxx Xxxxxxx & Xxxxx, LLP, 00 Xxxx Xxxxx Xxxxxx, Xxxxx 0000, Xxxxxxxx, Xxxx

satisfaction of the conditions set forth in ARTICLE 9 (or waiver by the Party for whose benefit
such conditions exist) other than any conditions that are by their nature to be satisfied at
Closing (but subject to the satisfaction or waiver or such conditions), or at such

(iii) make available to Buyer (if reasonably within Seller’s control) reasonable access
to counterparties to the Assigned Contracts and Assumed Liabilities.
Any investigation pursuant to this Section 5.02 shall be conducted in such manner as not to

performance or evaluation records, medical histories or other information which in Seller’s good
faith opinion is sensitive or the disclosure of which could subject Seller or such Affiliate to
risk of liability, (ii) any information which is subject of any attorney-client or other privilege

to its properties, books, records, and employees to the extent necessary to permit Buyer to
determine any matter relating to any period ending on or before the Closing Date (for example, for
purposes of any tax or accounting audit or any claim or litigation matter not being actively
litigated between Buyer and Seller); provided that any such access by Buyer shall not
unreasonably interfere with the conduct of the business of Seller. Buyer will hold, and will cause
its officers, directors, employees, accountants, counsel, consultants, advisors and agents to hold,
in confidence, unless Buyer is compelled to disclose by judicial or administrative process or
obligated to disclose by other requirements of Law, all confidential documents and information

hereby or in connection with the other Transaction Agreements.
Section 5.04 Emissions Allowances. From and after the Closing until the fifth (5th)
anniversary thereof, if Seller plans to offer Emissions Allowances for sale on the open market to
third parties and if requested by Buyer, Seller shall use commercially reasonable efforts to

any of them to, solicit or enter into any discussions or negotiations with, or furnish or cause to
be furnished any information concerning the Purchased Assets to, any Person (other than Buyer or
its representatives) in connection with an acquisition of the Purchased Assets, directly or
indirectly whether by merger, purchase of equity interests, sale of
assets or any other means, other than extraordinary transactions (including a merger or sale of
sale of all or substantially all of the assets) involving Seller or its Affiliates, or the sale or
transfer of securities of Seller or its Affiliates; provided that under no circumstances shall

except for (i) any press releases or public statements the making of which are required by
applicable Law, regulation or any listing agreement with any national securities exchange or in

Section 7.04 Supplements to Seller Disclosure Schedule. Seller may, from time to time prior to the
Closing by written notice to Buyer supplement the Seller Disclosure Schedule or add a schedule or
section to the Seller Disclosure Schedule with a corresponding reference to be added in this
Agreement (such added Schedule to be deemed a supplement hereunder) to disclose any matter which,
if occurring prior to the date hereof, would have been required to be set forth or described on the
Seller Disclosure Schedule or to correct any inaccuracy or breach in the warranties made by Seller
in this Agreement (whether or not the matter occurred prior to, on or after the date hereof). None
of such supplements of the Seller Disclosure Schedule shall be deemed to cure the representations
or warranties to which such matters relate with respect to rights to indemnification pursuant to
ARTICLE 10 or conditions set forth in ARTICLE 9, or otherwise affect any other term or condition
contained in this Agreement; provided, however, that unless Buyer shall have
delivered a notice of breach pursuant to Section 11.01(d) (to the extent Buyer is entitled to
deliver such notice pursuant to such Section) within ten (10) Business Days of the receipt by Buyer
of any supplement to the Seller Disclosure Schedule pursuant to this Section 7.04 (together with
disclosure to Buyer of information reasonably requested by Buyer to enable Buyer to understand, and
evaluate the effects of, such supplement), then Buyer shall have waived any and all rights to
terminate this Agreement, pursuant to ARTICLE 11 or otherwise, or to consider any condition to
Closing not to be satisfied, arising out of or relating to the contents of such supplement.
Section 7.05 Antitrust Clearance(a). Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary in this
Agreement:
(a) Each of Seller and Buyer shall take all actions necessary to prepare and to make any
required filings for the Antitrust Clearance (if applicable) without undue delay after the
Execution Date (to the extent not already made as of the date of this Agreement) and to furnish all
information required in connection therewith. The Parties shall cooperate with each other with
respect to any antitrust filing in connection with the Antitrust Clearance and any other antitrust
filing in connection with the Transaction contemplated under this Agreement in providing all
reasonably required information concerning the Purchased Assets and to assist in such filings,
and shall use reasonable best efforts to obtain the Antitrust Clearance as promptly as practicable.
36
(b) To the extent practical, the Parties shall give each other reasonable advance notice of
any notification, submission or other communication which it proposes to make or submit to any
antitrust authority and provide the other with copies of such draft notification, submission or
correspondence and any supporting documentation or information reasonably requested by the other.
The Parties shall give due consideration to any comments of each other in relation to any such
draft notification, submission or communication. The Parties agree to keep each other fully
informed as to the progress of any notification made in order to obtain the Antitrust Clearance.
Each Party and its external counsel shall be entitled to attend all meetings with any antitrust
authority or other persons or bodies (unless prohibited by the authority or other person or unless
it is otherwise not practical), except for the respective parts of meetings in which a Party’s
confidential business information will be disclosed, in which case external counsel for the other
Party, but not the Party itself, shall be entitled to attend.
Section 7.06 Approvals. Other than with respect to matters covered by Section 7.05 of this
Agreement, each Party shall use reasonable best efforts to obtain all authorizations, consents,
actions, orders, and approvals of, and to give all notices to and make all filings with, all
Governmental Bodies and third parties that are, may be or become necessary for its execution and
delivery of, and the performance of its obligations under, this Agreement and the consummation of
the Transactions, and will cooperate fully with the other Party in promptly seeking to obtain all
such authorizations, consents, actions, orders and responding to requests for any additional
information from Governmental Bodies, approvals, giving such notices, making such filings and
contesting or opposing any legal challenges or objections to such filings. Seller and Buyer shall
jointly file for Federal Communications Commission consent for the assignment of the wireless
license set forth on Section 7.06 of the Seller Disclosure Schedule.
37
Section 7.07 Notices of Certain Events. Without limiting either Party’s representations or
warranties in this Agreement, each of Seller and Buyer shall promptly notify the other Party of:
(a) any notice or other communication received from any Person alleging that the consent of
such Person is or may be required in connection with the Transactions;
(b) any notice or other communication received from any Governmental Body in connection with
the Transactions;
(c) any actions, suits, claims, investigations or proceedings commenced relating to the
Purchased Assets of which it receives notice and which, in any manner challenges or seeks to
prevent, enjoin, alter or Materially delay the Transactions; and
(d) the discovery of any fact or circumstance that, or the occurrence or non-occurrence of any
event the occurrence or non-occurrence of which, would cause or result in any of the conditions set
forth in Article IX not being satisfied by the relevant expiration date set forth in Section
11.01(b); provided, however, that the delivery of any notice pursuant to this
Section 7.07(d) shall not (x) cure any breach of, or non-compliance with, any other provision of
this Agreement or (y) limit the remedies available to the party receiving such notice.
Section 7.08 Certain Employee Matters.
(a) This transaction involves the sale of assets only and does not involve the transfer of any
Employees from Seller to any operation of Buyer or its Affiliates and thus nothing herein shall be
construed as obligating Buyer to offer employment to or hire any of the Seller’s Employees.
(b) At any time prior to or after the Closing (but if prior to the Closing, contingent upon
the Closing), Buyer may offer employment, in its sole discretion and in accordance with its
particular staffing needs, to any Employees, including CBA Employees subject to the Collective
Bargaining Agreement, other than the Employee set forth on Section 7.08 of the Seller Disclosure
Schedule.
(c) If Buyer or its Affiliates hire any such CBA Employees, Buyer shall, but only if and then
to the extent required by Law, (i) become a successor employer under the Collective Bargaining
Agreement and (ii) assume its terms and conditions as required by the Collective Bargaining
Agreement, provided that Seller shall remain responsible, as provided elsewhere in
this Agreement, for any liabilities related to such CBA Employees which were owed or accrued
through but not including the Closing Date.
38
(d) Neither Buyer nor any of its Affiliates shall take any action (including with respect to
the CBA Employees) which Buyer reasonably believes is likely to have the effect of (or that does
have the effect of) causing Seller or its Affiliates to suffer liabilities or Damages (excluding,
for purposes of this subparagraph only, attorneys fees) (i) for obligations arising after the
Closing under or pursuant to the Collective Bargaining Agreement or applicable Law related thereto
or (ii) because of any offers of employment or similar status to any CBA Employees before or after
the Closing or (iii) any binding findings (by settlement or otherwise) that any actions of Buyer or
its Affiliates, before or after the Closing, resulted in a breach of the Collective Bargaining
Agreement or applicable Law by Buyer, Seller or their respective Affiliates.
(e) In the event Seller becomes a party to an unfair labor practice charge, an arbitration or
other proceeding which relates in any way to the rights of CBA Employees under the Collective
Bargaining Agreement arising out of the Transaction, Seller shall promptly notify Buyer of any such
proceeding and consult with Buyer regarding the same. Seller shall be precluded, without Buyer’s
specific consent, from resolving any such proceeding in a manner that would be deemed binding upon
Buyer or that would be reasonably likely to cause liabilities or obligations to Buyer.
(f) Should any Other Employee wish to accept an offer of employment extended by Buyer, the
Other Employee must voluntarily sever his/her employment relationship with Seller before commencing
employment with Buyer. Should that occur, Seller will be responsible for any obligation owed to
the Other Employee pursuant to the terms of Seller’s plans and agreements, including any of
Seller’s benefit plans.
(g) Buyer may not offer employment to the Employee set forth on Section 7.08 of the Seller
Disclosure Schedule, and, for a period ending two (2) years after the Closing Date, neither Buyer
not any of its Affiliates shall hire, induce, solicit or encourage, or attempt to induce, solicit
or encourage, whether directly or indirectly, the Employee set forth on Section 7.08 of the Seller
Disclosure Schedule; provided that a general advertisement or other disclosure of a general
search that is not targeted or directed to such individual will not violate the covenants
contained in this Section 7.08(g).
39
(h) Seller shall be responsible for the payment of all wages, accrued but unused vacation,
paid time off and other remuneration or compensation due to all Other Employees, with respect to
their services as employees of Seller through the Closing Date, including (i) the payment of any
termination, severance or similar payments under applicable Law or pursuant to the terms of any
applicable severance plan, policy, agreement or arrangement of Seller to any Other Employees and
(ii) the cost of workers’ compensation claims, both medical and disability, for any Other Employee
that relate to loss events occurring on or before the Closing Date. Buyer shall assume and be
responsible for all obligations, liabilities and commitments with respect to employment, employee
benefits, and related matters with respect to all Other Employees hired by Buyer that are accrued
and owing from and after the Closing Date.
Section 7.09 Confidentiality. Seller acknowledges that information concerning the Purchased
Assets has competitive value to Buyer, and Seller agrees that after the Closing, all information
that prior to Closing would have been “Confidential Information” under the Confidentiality
Agreement shall become confidential information of Buyer (“Confidential Information”), and Seller
and each of Seller’s Affiliates shall maintain the confidentiality of such Confidential Information
in accordance with the terms of the Confidentiality Agreement as if it were the party to whom the
Confidential Information was disclosed under the Confidentiality Agreement.
Section 7.10 Transfer of Capacity Rights.
(a) The Parties acknowledge and agree that Seller has certain capacity supply obligations in
connection with Seller’s offering of the Generating Facility capacity into certain capacity
procurement auctions. Specifically, Seller offered capacity associated with the Generating
Facility into the ATSI FRR Program for the 2012-13 Delivery Year and Seller’s offer was accepted in
the amount of 653 MW. Moreover, Seller offered capacity associated with the Generating Facility
into PJM’s Reliability Pricing Model Base Residual Auction (“RPM Auction”) for the 2013-14 Delivery
Year and Seller’s offer was accepted in the amount of 653MW. Moreover, Seller will offer capacity
associated with the Generating Facility into PJM’s
RPM Auction for the 2014-15 Delivery Year (scheduled to take place in May, 2011) and some or
all of Seller’s offer may be accepted, and Seller will reasonably consult with Buyer in connection
therewith, to the extent permitted by applicable Law.
40
(b) Seller will at Closing transfer and assign its capacity supply obligations and its rights
to payment in satisfaction of contract capacity obligations associated with the Generating Facility
in the capacity amounts for each of the respective Delivery Years described in subparagraph (a) of
this section (“Contract Capacity”) and Buyer hereby unconditionally accepts and assumes each and
all of Seller’s obligations to supply the Contract Capacity for each and all such Delivery Years in
accordance with the ATSI FRR Program and Capacity Purchase and Sale Agreement, and the PJM RPM
Auction requirements, as applicable. Buyer will satisfy its obligations by following the processes
and procedures described Attachment DD of PJM’s Tariff, and in Article 2 of the ATSI Utilities FRR
Program Capacity Purchase and Sale Agreement, and in PJM’s manuals and processes that implement
such capacity programs. All such transfer of the Contract Capacity obligations will be documented
and implemented in the manner specified by PJM or the purchasers under the ATSI Utilities FRR
Program Capacity Purchase and Sale Agreement (the “ATSI Utilities”) (as the case may be), and
Seller and Buyer will exchange such additional information, documentation, contracts, assignment
and assumption agreements, or other instruments as may be required by PJM or the ATSI Utilities (as
the case may be) such that Buyer will be able to perform its Contract Capacity obligations under
this Agreement.
(c) Seller shall provide such additional information, documentation, contracts, assignment and
assumption agreements, or other instruments as may be required or requested by PJM or the ATSI
Utilities (as the case may be) in order to permit Buyer to receive all payments and rights to
payment for the Contract Capacity and Buyer will perform all actions reasonably required or
requested by PJM or the ATSI Utilities in order to make payment directly to Buyer in association
with Buyer’s rights to such payment as described herein.
41
Section 7.11 Technical Arbitration. Notwithstanding anything else in this Agreement, the
following provisions shall apply with respect to the definition of “Mechanically Complete” and the
concomitant satisfaction of the corresponding conditions to Closing set forth in Section
9.02(d)(ii):
(a) At any time prior to the Closing, Seller may notify Buyer in writing that in Seller’s view
the condition set forth in clause (vi) of the definition of “Mechanically Complete” has been
satisfied (a “Seller Notification”).
(b) Buyer shall have seven (7) Business Days to respond to the Seller Notification (“Buyer’s
Response”), and, unless the Buyer’s Response states that Buyer objects to the Seller Notification
(and sets forth reasonably specific reasons for such objection), clause (vi) of the definition of
“Mechanically Complete” and the corresponding condition to Closing set forth in Section 9.02(d)(ii)
shall be deemed to be satisfied and met (but, for the avoidance of doubt, such Buyer’s Response
shall have no effect on any other covenants or agreements of Seller pursuant to this Agreement).
(c) If Buyer’s Response states that Buyer objects to the Seller Notification (and sets forth
reasonably specific reasons for such objection), the matters addressed in the Buyer’s Response
shall be immediately referred to binding arbitration by an independent engineer or engineering firm
of favorable reputation that has not worked for either Party or their Affiliates for a period of
one (1) year prior to such dispute and which is reasonably acceptable to Buyer and Seller (the
“Technical Arbitrator”). If the Parties cannot decide on a Technical Arbitrator within five (5)
Business Days of the delivery of a Buyer’s Response, the matter shall be referred to the New York
office of the American Arbitration Association, who shall be instructed to select a Technical
Arbitrator within five (5) Business Days of such instruction. The Technical Arbitrator shall be
instructed by Buyer and Seller to render a final decision as to whether the reasons set forth in
the Buyer’s Response are correct within twenty (20) days of its instruction, which final decision
shall be final, absolute, and non-appealable by Buyer and Seller.
(d) The fees and expenses of the Technical Arbitrator shall be paid by the non-prevailing
Party. If the Buyer is the non-prevailing Party, clause (B) of Section 2.06(a) shall apply at the
Closing regardless of whether Buyer has provided Seller with the notice contemplated by Section
11.01(b).
(e) From and after the delivery of a Seller Notification pursuant to clause (a) above until
the rendering of the final decision set forth in clause (c) above, the then-applicable termination
date provided for in Section 11.01(b) shall be tolled (provided that time periods
applicable to the second sentence of Section 7.11(d) shall not be tolled). Section 7.11 of
the Seller Disclosure Schedule sets forth an example of such tolling.
42

audit by any Taxing Authority, and the prosecution or defense of any claim, suit or proceeding

Date. At the end of such period, Buyer and Seller shall provide the other with at least ten (10)
days prior written notice before destroying any such books and records, during which period the
other party can elect to take possession, at its own expense, of such books and records. Seller
and Buyer shall cooperate with each other in the conduct of any audit or other proceeding relating
to Taxes involving the Purchased Assets. Notwithstanding anything herein to the
contrary, the Parties agree, to the extent consistent with applicable Law, to treat all
machinery and equipment included in the Purchased Assets as personal property for purposes of any
Tax filings or elections.
43
(b) All real property taxes, personal property taxes and similar ad valorem obligations levied
with respect to the Purchased Assets for a taxable period which includes (but does not end on) the
Closing Date (collectively, the “Apportioned Obligations”) shall be apportioned between Seller and
Buyer based on the number of days of such taxable period for each Taxing Authority included in the
Pre-Closing Tax Period and the number of days of such taxable period after the Closing Date (with
respect to any such taxable period, the “Post-Closing Tax Period”) (i.e., in accordance with the
fiscal year method of tax proration). Seller shall be liable for the proportionate amount of such
taxes that is attributable to the Pre-Closing Tax Period, and Buyer shall be liable for the
proportionate amount of such taxes that is attributable to the Post-Closing Tax Period.
(c) All excise, sales, use, value added, VAT, stamp duty, registration stamp, recording,
documentary, conveyancing, franchise, property, transfer and similar Taxes, levies, charges and
fees (collectively, “Transfer Taxes”) incurred in connection with the Transactions contemplated by
this Agreement shall be borne one-half by Seller and one-half by Buyer. Buyer and Seller shall
cooperate in providing each other with any appropriate resale exemption certifications and other
similar documentation. Seller shall be solely responsible for all income, franchise, gross income,
gross receipts, business occupation, Single Business, Commercial Activity and similar Taxes it
incurs in connection with the Transactions.
(d) Apportioned Obligations and Transfer Taxes shall be timely paid, and all applicable
filings, reports and returns shall be filed, as provided by applicable Law. The paying party shall
be entitled to reimbursement from the non-paying party to the extent provided in Section 8.02(b) or
(c), as the case may be. Upon payment of any such Apportioned Obligation or Transfer Tax, the
paying party shall present a statement to the non-paying party setting forth the amount of
reimbursement to which the paying party is entitled under Section 8.02(b) or (c), as the case may
be, together with such supporting evidence as is reasonably necessary to calculate the amount to be
reimbursed. The non-paying party shall make such reimbursement promptly but in no event later than
thirty (30) days after the presentation of such statement. Any payment
not made within such time shall bear interest at the annual rate of LIBOR + 6% for each day
until paid.

ARTICLE 10
Survival; Indemnification
Section 10.01 Survival. The representations and warranties of the Parties contained in this
Agreement shall survive the Closing Date for a period of twenty four (24) months following the date
thereof. All covenants and agreements contained in this Agreement that contemplate or provide for
any rights, obligations or actions of any Party after the Closing shall survive the Closing until
they are fully performed or terminated in accordance with their terms. Any and all Claims for
Damages arising out of, relating to or in connection with the Excluded Liabilities or Assumed
Liabilities pursuant to Section 10.02 shall survive the Closing indefinitely. No Claim or cause of
action for indemnification under ARTICLE 10 arising out of the inaccuracy or breach of any
representation or warranty of Seller or Buyer may be made following the termination of the survival
period; it being understood that in the event notice of any Claim for indemnification under Section
10.02 shall have been given within the applicable survival period, the representations and
warranties that are subject of such indemnification claim shall survive until such time as such
Claim is fully resolved.
Section 10.02 Indemnification.
(a) From and after the Closing, subject to the limitations set forth in this Agreement, Seller

Agreement;

Excluded Liabilities; and
(iv) any event arising from the operation and ownership of, or conditions occurring
with respect to, the ownership and operation (including development and construction) of the
Generating Facility or any of the Purchased Assets by Seller or its Affiliates prior to the
Closing Date (but if arising only in part, then only to the extent of such part);
provided that, with respect to indemnification by Seller for any breach or inaccuracy of
any representation or warranty pursuant to Section 10.02(a)(i), (A) Seller shall not be liable
unless the aggregate amount of Damages with respect to such misrepresentations or breaches exceeds
$1,500,000.00 in which event Seller shall be liable for the full amount of Damages, and (B)
Seller’s maximum liability for Damages with respect to such misrepresentations or breaches shall
not exceed the 15% of the Purchase Price in the aggregate and (C) any individual Indemnification
Claim and/or series of related Indemnification Claims arising from the same event or occurrence or
series thereof resulting in Damages of less than $10,000.00 will be disregarded for all purposes
and not be indemnified by Seller.
(b) From and after the Closing, subject to the limitations set forth in this Agreement, Buyer
shall indemnify Seller and its Affiliates against and agrees to hold each of them harmless from any
and all Damages incurred or suffered by Seller or any of its Affiliates arising out of:
(i) the breach or inaccuracy of any representation or warranty made by Buyer in this
Agreement;
(ii) the breach or violation of, or default under, any covenant, agreement or
undertaking of Buyer contained in this Agreement;
(iii) any Assumed Liability and any and all claims and expenses arising from the

49
(iv) any event arising from the operation and ownership of, or conditions occurring
with respect to the ownership and operation (including development and construction) of the
Generating Facility or any of the Purchased Assets from and after 12:01 a.m. on the Closing
Date (but if arising only in part, then only to the extent of such part).
provided that, with respect to indemnification by Buyer for any breach or inaccuracy of any
representation or warranty pursuant to Section 10.02(b)(i), (A) Buyer shall not be liable unless
the aggregate amount of Damages with respect to such misrepresentations or breaches exceeds
$1,500,000.00 in which event Buyer shall be liable for the full amount of Damages, (B) Buyer’s
maximum liability for Damages with respect to such misrepresentations or breaches shall not exceed
15% of the Purchase Price in the aggregate and (C) any individual Indemnification Claim and/or
series of related Indemnification Claims arising from the same event or occurrence or series
thereof resulting in Damages of less than $10,000.00 will be disregarded for all purposes and not
be indemnified by Buyer.
Section 10.03 Procedures.
(a) A party making a Claim for indemnification under Section 10.02 shall be, for the purposes
of this Agreement referred to as an “Indemnified Party” and a party against whom such claims are
asserted under Section 10.02 shall be, for the purposes of this Agreement, referred to as an
“Indemnifying Party”. All claims by any Indemnified Party under Section 10.02 shall be asserted
and resolved as follows:
(b) In the event that (i) any action, application, suit, demand, claim or legal,
administrative, arbitration or other alternative dispute resolution proceeding, hearing or
investigation (each a “Proceeding”) is asserted or instituted by any Person other than the Parties
or their Affiliates which could give rise to Damages for which an Indemnifying Party could be
liable to an Indemnified Party under this Agreement (such Proceeding, a “Third Party Claim”) or
(ii) any Indemnified Party under this Agreement shall have a claim to be indemnified by any
Indemnifying Party under this Agreement which does not involve a Third Party Claim (such claim, a
“Direct Claim” and, together with Third Party Claims, “Indemnification Claims”), the
Indemnified Party shall, promptly after it becomes aware of a Third Party Claim (and in any
event, within ten (10) Business Days), or facts supporting a Direct Claim, send to the Indemnifying
Party a written notice specifying the nature of such Proceeding, and the amount or estimated amount
thereof and the section of this Agreement such Third Party Claim or Direct Claim is being made
under (a “Claim Notice”), together with copies of all notices and documents (including court
papers) served on or received by the Indemnified Party in the case of a Third Party Claim,
provided that a delay in notifying the Indemnifying Party shall not relieve the
Indemnifying Party of its obligations under Section 10.02 except to the extent that the
Indemnifying Party shall have been prejudiced by such failure to give such notice, in which case
the Indemnifying Party shall be relieved of its obligations under Section 10.02 to the extent of
such prejudice.
50
(c) In the event of a Third Party Claim the Indemnifying Party shall have the right to defend
the Indemnified Party against such Third Party Claim and be entitled to appoint counsel of the
Indemnifying Party’s choice at the expense of the Indemnifying Party to represent the Indemnified
Party in connection with such Proceeding (in which case the Indemnifying Party shall not thereafter
be responsible for the fees and expenses of any separate counsel retained by any Indemnified Party
or any other costs or expenses with respect to the defense of a Third Party Claim except as set
forth below); provided that, notwithstanding such failure to engage counsel within
reasonable time, the Indemnifying Party shall have the right to assume the defense of such Third
Party Claim by appointment of counsel and shall thereafter cease to be responsible for the fees and
expenses of separate counsel appointed by the Indemnified Party. Nothing in this Section 10.03
shall require the Indemnifying Party to be responsible for the fees and expenses of more than one
counsel at any time in connection with the defense against a Third Party Claim. If requested by
the Indemnifying Party, the Indemnified Party agrees to cooperate with the Indemnifying Party and
its counsel in defending and contesting any Proceeding which the Indemnifying Party defends in
making any counterclaim against the Person asserting the Third Party Claim, or any cross-complaint
against any Person. No Third Party Claim may be settled or compromised, or the entry of any
judgment related thereto consented to (i) by the Indemnified Party without the prior written
consent of the Indemnifying Party in its sole discretion or (ii) by the Indemnifying Party without
the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party (which consent shall not be unreasonably
withheld, conditioned or delayed), unless, in the case of this
clause (ii), the sole relief provided is monetary damages that are paid in full by the
Indemnifying Party (if such claim by the Indemnified Party for indemnification is successful).
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Indemnified Party shall have the right to settle, compromise or
consent to the entry of any judgment with respect to any Third Party Claim without such consent,
provided that in such event the Indemnified Party shall waive any right to indemnification under
this Section 10.03 with respect to such Third Party Claim.
51
(d) In the event of Direct Claim, the Indemnifying Party shall notify the Indemnified Party
within thirty (30) days of receipt of a Claim Notice whether or not the Indemnifying Party disputes
such Indemnification Claim. From and after the delivery of a Claim Notice under this Agreement, at
the reasonable request of the Indemnifying Party, each Indemnified Party shall grant the
Indemnifying Party and its representatives reasonable access to the books, records, employees,
representatives and properties of such Indemnified Party, and in the case of a claim relating to
environmental matters, copies of sampling data, environmental reports, proposals and any other
correspondence in the possession of the Indemnified Party to the extent reasonably related to the
matters to which the Claim Notice relates. All such access shall be granted during normal business
hours and shall be granted under conditions which will not unreasonably interfere with the business
and operations of such Indemnified Party. The Indemnifying Party will not, and shall use its
reasonable best efforts to cause its representatives not to, use (except in connection with such
Claim Notice) or disclose to any third person other than the Indemnifying Party’s representatives
(except as may be required by applicable Law) any information obtained pursuant to this Section
10.03(d) which is designated as confidential by the Indemnified Party.
Section 10.04 Calculation of Damages.
(a) The amount of any Damages payable under this ARTICLE 10 by the Indemnifying Party shall be
(i) net of any amounts recovered by the Indemnified Party under applicable insurance policies
(which the Indemnified Party shall use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain) and (ii) net of
any Tax benefit realized by the Indemnified Party arising from the incurrence or payment of any
such Damages and the receipt of indemnification payments from or on behalf of the Indemnifying
Party. In computing the amount of any such Tax benefit or cost, the Indemnified Party shall be
deemed to fully utilize, at the highest marginal tax rate then in effect and applicable to such
Party with respect to such payment, all Tax items arising
from the receipt of any indemnity payment hereunder or the incurrence or payment of any
indemnified Damages.
52
(b) The Indemnifying Party shall not be liable under Section 10.02 (and no Party shall be
liable under Section 11.02 or otherwise under this Agreement) for any (i) special, incidental,
indirect, consequential, punitive or exemplary Damages or (ii) Damages for lost profits. For
purposes of clarity, the payment of Damages to a Person making a Third Party Claim in satisfaction
of such Third Party Claim shall not be deemed consequential Damages.
(c) The Indemnifying Party shall promptly, and in any event within thirty (30) days, pay or
reimburse to the Indemnified Party the amount of all Indemnification Claims after the Indemnifying
Party’s liability therefor is established (a) by agreement in writing between Indemnifying Party
and Indemnified Party or (b) by a final, non-appealable judgment of a court of competent
jurisdiction (any amount so determined is referred to herein as an “Established Loss”).
(d) All amounts paid by Seller to Buyer pursuant to this ARTICLE 10 shall, to the extent
permitted by applicable Law, be treated as adjustments to the Purchase Price for all Tax purposes.
Section 10.05 Assignment of Claims. If the Indemnified Party receives any payment from an
Indemnifying Party in respect of any Damages pursuant to ARTICLE 10 and the Indemnified Party could
have recovered all or a part of such Damages from a third party (a “Potential Contributor”) based
on the underlying claim asserted against the Indemnifying Party, the Indemnified Party shall assign
such of its rights to proceed against the Potential Contributor as are necessary to permit the
Indemnifying Party to seek to recover from the Potential Contributor the amount of such payment.
Section 10.06 Exclusive Remedy; Mitigation. Except as specifically set forth in this Agreement,
each Party waives any rights and claims it may have against the other Party, whether in Law or in
equity, relating to the Purchased Assets or the Transactions after the Closing. Such rights and
claims waived by each Party include, claims for contribution or other rights of recovery arising
out of or relating to claims for breach of contract, breach of representation or warranty,
negligent misrepresentation and all other claims for breach of duty.
After the Closing, ARTICLE 10 will provide the exclusive remedy for any misrepresentation, breach
of warranty, covenant or other agreement or other claim arising out of this Agreement or the
Transactions contemplated hereby. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Buyer and Seller agree that each
Party shall retain all remedies at Law or in equity with respect to actual fraud or willful or
intentional breaches of a representation, warranty, covenant or agreement contained in this
Agreement. Each of Buyer and Seller has an obligation to use reasonable best efforts to mitigate
Damages for which they are or may be entitled to indemnification pursuant to this ARTICLE 10.
53
ARTICLE 11

then July 1, 2011 shall be changed to July 15, 2011 and (B) provided that if Buyer notifies Seller
before July 1 or July 15, as applicable, then July 1, 2011 or July 15, 2011, as then applicable,

that this clause (b) may be modified by Section 7.11);
(c) by either Buyer or Seller if (i) a statute, rule, regulation or executive order shall have
been enacted, entered or promulgated prohibiting the consummation of the Transactions and the Party
seeking to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 11.01(c)(i) shall have used reasonable
best efforts to prevent the passage or implementation of such statute, rule, regulation or
executive order or (ii) an Order shall have been entered permanently restraining, enjoining or
otherwise prohibiting the consummation of the Transactions, and such Order shall have become final
and non-appealable and the Party seeking to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section
11.01(c)(ii) shall have used reasonable best efforts to remove such Order;
54
(d) by Buyer, so long as Buyer is not then in material breach of any of its representations,
warranties, covenants or agreements hereunder, by written notice to Seller, if there shall have
been a material breach of any representation or warranty of Seller, or a material breach of any
covenant or agreement of Seller hereunder, which breach would be reasonably expected to have,
individually or in the aggregate, a Seller Material Adverse Effect, and such breach shall not have
been remedied within thirty (30) days after receipt by Seller of notice in writing (a “Breach
Notice”) from Buyer, specifying the nature of such breach and requesting that it be remedied or
Buyer shall not have received adequate assurance of a cure of such breach within such thirty (30)
day period (or which breach cannot by its nature be so cured);

nature of such breach and requesting that it be remedied or Seller shall not have received adequate
assurance of a cure of such breach within such thirty (30) day period (or which breach cannot by
its nature be so cured);
(f) (i) by Buyer, if the satisfaction of any of the conditions set forth in Sections 9.01 or
9.02 (other than Section 9.02(e)) is or becomes impossible (other than through the failure by Buyer
to comply with its obligations under this Agreement) or (ii) by Seller, if the satisfaction of any
of the conditions set forth in Sections 9.01 or 9.03 is or becomes impossible (other than through
the failure of Seller to comply with its obligations under this Agreement); or
(g) by Seller if the Site Visit Milestone or the Subscription Period Milestone shall not have
been met, and in each case Seller has reasonable basis to believe that the Closing will not occur
by July 1, 2011 (as may be extended pursuant to Section 11.01(b)).
Notwithstanding anything else set forth in this Agreement, including the foregoing, if Buyer makes
the notification to Seller set forth in clause (B) of Section 11.01(b) above, the conditions to
Buyer’s obligations to effect the Closing set forth in Section 9.02(b), (c), and (d) shall be
deemed permanently satisfied and irrevocably waived, and Buyer shall not have any right to
terminate this Agreement or fail to effect the Closing based on such conditions not being satisfied
or pursuant to Section 11.01(d) or (f), and Buyer and its Affiliates shall have no right to receive

(5) Business Days written notice of such termination to the other Party.
Section 11.02 Effect of Termination.
(a) Except as provided in clauses (b), (c) or (d) below, if this Agreement is terminated as
permitted by Section 11.01, such termination shall be without liability of either Party (or any
stockholder, Affiliate, director, officer, employee, agent, consultant or representative of such
Party) to the other Party to this Agreement; provided that if such termination shall result
from the (i) willful failure of either Party to fulfill a condition to the performance of the
obligations of the other Party, or (ii) willful failure to perform a material covenant of this
Agreement or failure of a Party to effect the Closing as set forth in this Agreement, such Party
shall be fully liable for any and all Damages incurred or suffered by the other Party as a result
of such failure or breach.
(b) If this Agreement is terminated (i) pursuant to Section 11.01(b) and all conditions to the
obligations of Buyer to effect the Closing set forth in ARTICLE 9 have been satisfied or waived
with the exception of the condition in Section 9.02(e) and any conditions that are by their nature
to be satisfied at Closing, (ii) pursuant to Section 11.01(e), (iii) pursuant to Section
11.01(f)(i) because the satisfaction of the condition in Section 9.02(e) is or becomes impossible,
(iv) pursuant to Section 11.01 (f)(ii) (other than because the satisfaction of the conditions set
forth in Section 9.01 or 9.03(d) and (e) becomes impossible) or (v) pursuant to Section 11.01(g),

paid by Seller to Buyer in full compensation regarding any and all of Buyer’s fees and expenses or
