-20-
SECTION 13. | SURVIVAL OF REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES; ENTIRE AGREEMENT. |
All representations and warranties contained herein shall survive the execution and delivery of the Financing Agreements, the purchase or transfer by any Purchaser of any 2012 Series A Bond or portion thereof or interest therein and the payment of any 2012 Series A Bond, and may be relied upon by any subsequent holder of a 2012 Series A Bond, regardless of any investigation made at any time by or on behalf of such Purchaser or any other holder of a 2012 Series A Bond. All statements contained in any certificate or other instrument required to be delivered by or on behalf of the Company pursuant to this Agreement shall be deemed representations and warranties of the Company under this Agreement. Subject to the preceding sentence, the Financing Agreements embody the entire agreement and understanding between each Purchaser and the Company and supersede all prior agreements and understandings relating to the subject matter hereof.
SECTION 14. | AMENDMENT AND WAIVER. |
Section 14.1. Requirements. This Agreement and the Bonds may be amended, and the observance of any term hereof or of the Bonds may be waived (either retroactively or prospectively), with (and only with) the written consent of the Company and the Required Holders, except that (a) no amendment or waiver of any of the provisions of Section 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 or 19 hereof or any defined term (as it is used therein), will be effective as to any Purchaser unless consented to by such Purchaser in writing, and (b) no such amendment or waiver may, without the written consent of the holder of each 2012 Series A Bond at the time outstanding affected thereby, (i) change the percentage of the principal amount of the 2012 Series A Bonds the holders of which are required to consent to any such amendment or waiver or (ii) amend any of Sections 14 or 18.
Section 14.2. Solicitation of Holders of 2012 Series A Bonds.
(a) Solicitation. The Company will provide each holder of the 2012 Series A Bonds (irrespective of the amount of 2012 Series A Bonds then owned by it) with sufficient information, sufficiently far in advance of the date a decision is required, to enable such holder to make an informed and considered decision with respect to any proposed amendment, waiver or consent in respect of any of the provisions hereof or of the 2012 Series A Bonds or Third Supplemental Indenture. The Company will deliver executed or true and correct copies of each amendment, waiver or consent effected pursuant to the provisions of this Section 14 or Section 1.4 of the Indenture to each holder of outstanding 2012 Series A Bonds promptly following the date on which it is executed and delivered by, or receives the consent or approval of, the requisite holders of 2012 Series A Bonds.
(b) Payment. The Company will not directly or indirectly pay or cause to be paid any remuneration, whether by way of supplemental or additional interest, fee or otherwise, or grant any security or provide other credit support, to any holder of 2012 Series A Bonds as consideration for or as an inducement to the entering into by any holder of 2012 Series A Bonds of any waiver or amendment of any of the terms and provisions hereof or of the Indenture unless such remuneration is concurrently paid, or security is concurrently granted or other credit support concurrently provided, on the same terms, ratably to each holder of 2012 Series A Bonds then outstanding even if such holder did not consent to such waiver or amendment.
-21-
(c) Consent in Contemplation of Transfer. Any consent made pursuant to this Section 14.2 by the holder of any 2012 Series A Bond that has transferred or has agreed to transfer such 2012 Series A Bond to the Company, any Subsidiary or any Affiliate of the Company and has provided or has agreed to provide such written consent as a condition to such transfer shall be void and of no force or effect except solely as to such holder, and any amendments effected or waivers granted or to be effected or granted that would not have been or would not be so effected or granted but for such consent (and the consents of all other holders of 2012 Series A Bonds that were acquired under the same or similar conditions) shall be void and of no force or effect except solely as to such transferring holder.
Section 14.3. Binding Effect. Any amendment or waiver applicable to this Agreement or the Third Supplemental Indenture consented to as provided in this Section 14 applies equally to all holders of 2012 Series A Bonds and is binding upon them and upon each future holder of any 2012 Series A Bond and upon the Company without regard to whether such 2012 Series A Bond has been marked to indicate such amendment or waiver. No such amendment or waiver will extend to or affect any obligation, covenant, agreement, Default or Event of Default not expressly amended or waived or impair any right consequent thereon. No course of dealing between the Company and the holder of any 2012 Series A Bond nor any delay in exercising any rights hereunder or under any 2012 Series A Bond shall operate as a waiver of any rights of any holder of such 2012 Series A Bond. As used herein, the term “this Agreement” and references thereto shall mean this Agreement as it may from time to time be amended or supplemented.
Section 14.4. 2012 Series A Bonds Held by Company. Solely for the purpose of determining whether the holders of the requisite percentage of the aggregate principal amount of 2012 Series A Bonds then outstanding approved or consented to any amendment, waiver or consent to be given under this Agreement, the Indenture or the 2012 Series A Bonds, or have directed the taking of any action provided herein or in the 2012 Series A Bonds to be taken upon the direction of the holders of a specified percentage of the aggregate principal amount of 2012 Series A Bonds then outstanding, 2012 Series A Bonds directly or indirectly owned by the Company or any of its Affiliates shall be deemed not to be outstanding.
SECTION 15. | NOTICES. |
All notices and communications provided for hereunder shall be in writing and sent (a) by telecopy if the sender on the same day sends a confirming copy of such notice by a recognized overnight delivery service (charges prepaid), or (b) by registered or certified mail with return receipt requested (postage prepaid), or (c) by a recognized overnight delivery service (with charges prepaid). Any such notice must be sent:
(i) if to any Purchaser or its nominee, to such Purchaser or nominee at the address specified for such communications in Schedule A, or at such other address as such Purchaser or nominee shall have specified to the Company in writing,
-22-
(ii) if to any other holder of any 2012 Series A Bond, to such holder at such address as such other holder shall have specified to the Company in writing,
(iii) if to the Company, to the Company at its address set forth at the beginning hereof to the attention of Chief Financial Officer, or at such other address as the Company shall have specified to the holder of each 2012 Series A Bond in writing, or
(iv) if to the Trustee, to the Trustee at the address specified in the Indenture or at such other address as the Trustee shall have specified to the holder of each Bond in writing.
Notices under this Section 15 will be deemed given only when actually received.
SECTION 16. | INDEMNIFICATION. |
The Company hereby agrees to indemnify and hold the Purchasers harmless from, against and in respect of any and all loss, liability and expense (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) arising from any misrepresentation or nonfulfillment of any undertaking on the part of the Company under this Agreement. The indemnification obligations of the Company under this Section 16 shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement, the delivery of the 2012 Series A Bonds to the Purchasers and the consummation of the transactions contemplated herein.
SECTION 17. | REPRODUCTION OF DOCUMENTS. |
This Agreement and all documents relating thereto, including, without limitation, (a) consents, waivers and modifications that may hereafter be executed, (b) documents received by any Purchaser at the Closing (except the 2012 Series A Bonds themselves), and (c) financial statements, certificates and other information previously or hereafter furnished to any Purchaser, may be reproduced by such Purchaser by any photographic, photostatic, electronic, digital, or other similar process and such Purchaser may destroy any original document so reproduced. The Company agrees and stipulates that, to the extent permitted by applicable law, any such reproduction shall be admissible in evidence as the original itself in any judicial or administrative proceeding (whether or not the original is in existence and whether or not such reproduction was made by such Purchaser in the regular course of business) and any enlargement, facsimile or further reproduction of such reproduction shall likewise be admissible in evidence. This Section 17 shall not prohibit the Company or any other holder of 2012 Series A Bonds from contesting any such reproduction to the same extent that it could contest the original, or from introducing evidence to demonstrate the inaccuracy of any such reproduction.
SECTION 18. | CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION. |
For the purposes of this Section 18, “Confidential Information” means information delivered to any Purchaser by or on behalf of the Company in connection with the transactions contemplated by or otherwise pursuant to this Agreement that is proprietary in nature and that was clearly marked or labeled or otherwise adequately identified when received by such
-23-
Purchaser as being confidential information of the Company, provided that such term does not include information that (a) was publicly known or otherwise known to such Purchaser prior to the time of such disclosure, (b) subsequently becomes publicly known through no act or omission by such Purchaser or any person acting on such Purchaser’s behalf, (c) otherwise becomes known to such Purchaser other than through disclosure by the Company or (d) constitutes financial statements delivered to such Purchaser under Section 7.1 that are otherwise publicly available. Each Purchaser will maintain the confidentiality of such Confidential Information in accordance with the procedures adopted by such Purchaser in good faith to protect its own confidential information and confidential information of third parties delivered to such Purchaser, provided that such Purchaser may deliver or disclose Confidential Information to (i) its directors, trustees, officers, employees, agents, attorneys and affiliates (to the extent such disclosure reasonably relates to the administration of the investment represented by its 2012 Series A Bonds), (ii) its financial advisors and other professional advisors who agree to hold confidential the Confidential Information substantially in accordance with the terms of this Section 18, (iii) any other holder of any 2012 Series A Bond, (iv) any Institutional Investor to which it sells or offers to sell such 2012 Series A Bond or any part thereof or any participation therein (if such Person has agreed in writing prior to its receipt of such Confidential Information to be bound by the provisions of this Section 18), (v) any Person from which it offers to purchase any security of the Company (if such Person has agreed in writing prior to its receipt of such Confidential Information to be bound by the provisions of this Section 18), (vi) any federal or state regulatory authority having jurisdiction over such Purchaser, (vii) the NAIC or the SVO or, in each case, any similar organization, or any nationally recognized rating agency that requires access to information about such Purchaser’s investment portfolio, or (viii) any other Person to which such delivery or disclosure may be necessary or appropriate (w) to effect compliance with any law, rule, regulation or order applicable to such Purchaser, (x) in response to any subpoena or other legal process, (y) in connection with any litigation to which such Purchaser is a party (provided that such litigation is related to such Purchaser’s investment in the Bonds) or (z) if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, to the extent such Purchaser may reasonably determine such delivery and disclosure to be necessary or appropriate in the enforcement or for the protection of the rights and remedies under such Purchaser’s 2012 Series A Bonds and this Agreement. Each holder of a 2012 Series A Bond, by its acceptance of a 2012 Series A Bond, will be deemed to have agreed to be bound by and to be entitled to the benefits of this Section 14 as though it were a party to this Agreement. On reasonable request by the Company in connection with the delivery to any holder of a 2012 Series A Bond of information required to be delivered to such holder under this Agreement or requested by such holder (other than a holder that is a party to this Agreement or its nominee), such holder will enter into an agreement with the Company embodying the provisions of this Section 18.
SECTION 19. | SUBSTITUTION OF PURCHASER. |
Each Purchaser shall have the right to substitute any one of its Affiliates as the purchaser of the 2012 Series A Bonds that it has agreed to purchase hereunder, by written notice to the Company, which notice shall be signed by both such Purchaser and such Affiliate, shall contain such Affiliate’s agreement to be bound by this Agreement and shall contain a confirmation by such Affiliate of the accuracy with respect to it of the representations set forth in Section 6. Upon receipt of such notice, any reference to such Purchaser in this Agreement (other than in
-24-
this Section 19), shall be deemed to refer to such Affiliate in lieu of such original Purchaser. In the event that such Affiliate is so substituted as a Purchaser hereunder and such Affiliate thereafter transfers to such original Purchaser all of the 2012 Series A Bonds then held by such Affiliate, upon receipt by the Company of notice of such transfer, any reference to such Affiliate as a “Purchaser” in this Agreement (other than in this Section 19), shall no longer be deemed to refer to such Affiliate, but shall refer to such original Purchaser, and such original Purchaser shall again have all the rights of an original holder of the 2012 Series A Bonds under this Agreement.
SECTION 20. | MISCELLANEOUS. |
Section 20.1. Successors and Assigns. All covenants and other agreements contained in this Agreement by or on behalf of any of the parties hereto bind and inure to the benefit of their respective successors and assigns (including, without limitation, any subsequent holder of a 2012 Series A Bond) whether so expressed or not.
Section 20.2. Payments Due on Non-Business Days. Anything in this Agreement or the Bonds to the contrary notwithstanding, any payment of principal of or Make-Whole Amount or interest on any Bond that is due on a date other than a Business Day shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day without including the additional days elapsed in the computation of the interest payable on such next succeeding Business Day; provided that if the maturity date of any Bond is a date other than a Business Day, the payment otherwise due on such maturity date shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day and shall include the additional days elapsed in the computation of interest payable on such next succeeding Business Day.
Section 20.3. Accounting Terms. All accounting terms used herein which are not expressly defined in this Agreement have the meanings respectively given to them in accordance with GAAP. Except as otherwise specifically provided herein, (i) all computations made pursuant to this Agreement shall be made using numbers prepared in accordance with GAAP, and (ii) all financial statements shall be prepared in accordance with GAAP.
For purposes of determining compliance with the financial covenants contained in the Financing Agreements, any election by the Company to measure an item of Indebtedness using fair value (as permitted by Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 159 or any similar accounting standard) shall be disregarded and such determination shall be made as if such election had not been made.
Section 20.4. Severability. Any provision of this Agreement that is prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions hereof, and any such prohibition or unenforceability in any jurisdiction shall (to the full extent permitted by law) not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction.
Section 20.5. Construction. Each covenant contained herein shall be construed (absent express provision to the contrary) as being independent of each other covenant contained herein, so that compliance with any one covenant shall not (absent such an express contrary provision)
-25-
be deemed to excuse compliance with any other covenant. Where any provision herein refers to action to be taken by any Person, or which such Person is prohibited from taking, such provision shall be applicable whether such action is taken directly or indirectly by such Person.
For the avoidance of doubt, all Schedules and Exhibits attached to this Agreement shall be deemed to be a part hereof.
Section 20.6. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be an original but all of which together shall constitute one instrument. Each counterpart may consist of a number of copies hereof, each signed by less than all, but together signed by all, of the parties hereto.
Section 20.7. Governing Law. This Agreement shall be construed and enforced in accordance with, and the rights of the parties shall be governed by, the law of the State of New York excluding choice-of-law principles of the law of such State that would permit the application of the laws of a jurisdiction other than such State.
Section 20.8. Jurisdiction and Process; Waiver of Jury Trial. (a) The Company irrevocably submits to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of any New York State or federal court sitting in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, over any suit, action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement, the Financing Agreements or the 2012 Series A Bonds. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, the Company irrevocably waives and agrees not to assert, by way of motion, as a defense or otherwise, any claim that it is not subject to the jurisdiction of any such court, any objection that it may now or hereafter have to the laying of the venue of any such suit, action or proceeding brought in any such court and any claim that any such suit, action or proceeding brought in any such court has been brought in an inconvenient forum.
(b) The Company hereby irrevocably appoints CT Corporation System, with offices as of the date of this Agreement at 000 0xx Xxxxxx, 00xx Xxxxx, Xxx Xxxx, Xxx Xxxx 00000, as its authorized agent for service of process in relation to any action, suit or proceeding of the nature referred to in Section 20.8(a). The Company consents to process being served by or on behalf of any holder of a 2012 Series A Bond with respect to any such any action, suit or proceeding by mailing a copy thereof by registered or certified mail (or any substantially similar form of mail), postage prepaid, return receipt requested to CT Corporation System at the address noted above. The Company agrees that such service upon receipt (i) shall be deemed in every respect effective service of process upon it in any such suit, action or proceeding and (ii) shall, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, be taken and held to be valid personal service upon and personal delivery to it. Notices hereunder shall be conclusively presumed received as evidenced by a delivery receipt furnished by the United States Postal Service or any reputable commercial delivery service. The Company further agrees that any failure of CT Corporation System to give notice to the Company of any such service shall not impair or affect the validity of such service of any judgment rendered in any such action, suit or proceeding. Nothing in this Agreement will affect the right of any party to this Agreement to serve process in any other manner permitted by law.
-26-
(c) Nothing in this Section 20.8 shall affect the right of any holder of a 2012 Series A Bond to serve process in any manner permitted by law, or limit any right that the holders of any of the 2012 Series A Bonds may have to bring proceedings against the Company in the courts of any appropriate jurisdiction or to enforce in any lawful manner a judgment obtained in one jurisdiction in any other jurisdiction.
(d) THE PARTIES HERETO HEREBY WAIVE TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION BROUGHT ON OR WITH RESPECT TO THIS AGREEMENT, THE 2012 SERIES A BONDS OR ANY OTHER DOCUMENT EXECUTED IN CONNECTION HEREWITH OR THEREWITH.

C. | Opinions |
Based on the foregoing examinations and assumptions and subject to the qualifications and exclusions stated below, we are of the opinion that:
C-1 The Company is an electric cooperative validly existing under Alaska law.
C-2 The Company has corporate power and authority to enter into, and to perform its obligations under, each of the Financing Agreements, and to own its properties and to carry on its business as, to our knowledge, it is now conducted.
C-3 The Company has authorized, by all necessary corporate action on the part of the Company, the execution and delivery of each of the Financing Agreements.
C-4 The Company has duly executed and delivered each of the Financing Agreements.
C-5 Each of the Financing Agreements constitutes the valid and binding obligation of the Company, enforceable against the Company in accordance with its terms.
C-6 The execution and delivery by the Company of, and the performance by the Company of the transactions contemplated by, each of the Financing Agreements do not violate the Company’s Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws.
C-7 The execution and delivery by the Company of, and the performance of the transactions contemplated by, each of the Financing Agreements (including the issue and sale of the 2012 Series A Bonds) are not prohibited by, nor do they violate any applicable statutes or regulations of any governmental agency or body having jurisdiction over the Company or any of its properties, or any order of any agency or body having jurisdiction over the Company of which we have knowledge.
C-8 No consent, approval, authorization, order, license, filing, registration or qualification of or with any governmental agency or body having jurisdiction over the Company or any of its properties is required for execution and delivery of the Financing Agreements and consummation by the Company of the transactions contemplated by the Bond Purchase Agreement, including the issue and sale of the 2012 Series A Bonds pursuant to the Indenture.
C-9 Assuming the accuracy of the representations contained in Sections 5.13 and 6.1 of the Bond Purchase Agreement, no registration of the 2012 Series A Bonds under the Securities Act is required for the offer and sale of the 2012 Series A Bonds in the manner contemplated by the Bond Purchase Agreement.
C-10 The Company is not an “investment company”, or a company “controlled” by an “investment company”, under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended.

Page 5
C-11 Neither the execution, delivery and performance of the Bond Purchase Agreement, nor the issue and sale of the 2012 Series A Bonds, violates Regulations T, U or X of the Federal Reserve Board.
C-12 The Indenture creates in the Trustee’s favor, as security for all obligations of the Company stated in the Indenture to be so secured, a valid lien on the Mortgaged Property, and a security interest in fixtures included therein, to the extent that the Company has rights in the Mortgaged Property.
C-13 The Indenture creates in the Lender’s favor, as security for all obligations of the Company under the Financing Agreements that are stated in the Security Agreement to be so secured, a security interest in the collateral described therein (except that described only by reference to “all the Company’s assets” or “all the Company’s personal property” or words of similar import) to the extent that (i) the Company has rights in or the power to transfer such collateral and (ii) creation of a security interest in such collateral is governed by Article 9 of the Alaska UCC (the “Article 9 Collateral”).
C-14 The Trustee has acquired, for the benefit of the Purchasers, a perfected security interest in that portion of the Article 9 Collateral in which a security interest can be perfected by filing a financing statement under the Alaska UCC.
C-15 No qualification of the Indenture under the Trust Indenture Act of 1939, as amended, is required in connection with the offer and sale of the 2012 Series A Bonds by the Company to the Purchasers in the manner contemplated by the Bond Purchase Agreement.
D. | Qualifications |
The opinions set forth herein are subject to customary qualifications as well as qualifications specific to Alaska or New York law, some of which are noted below:
D-1 With respect to our opinion in paragraph C-5 above, the effect of bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, receivership, moratorium, fraudulent transfer and other similar laws affecting the rights and remedies of creditors generally, and the effect of general principles of equity, whether applied by a court of law or equity.
D-2 With respect to our opinion in paragraph C-5 above, without limiting the other qualifications set forth in this opinion letter, certain provisions contained in the Financing Agreements may not be enforceable, but such unenforceability will not render any of the Financing Agreements invalid as a whole or preclude:
(i) | Judicial enforcement of the Company’s obligation to repay the principal amount of advances made under the Financing Agreements, together with interest thereon (to the extent not deemed a penalty), as provided in the Financing Agreements; |
Purchasers of Chugach Electric Association, Inc. First Mortgage Bonds, 2012 Series A

Page 6
(ii) | Upon written notice to the Company, acceleration of the Company’s obligation to repay such principal, together with such interest, upon default in the payment of such principal or interest or upon a continuing material default by the Company in the performance of any other enforceable obligation under the Financing Agreements (to the extent the Financing Agreements provide for such acceleration); or |
(iii) | Foreclosure in accordance with applicable laws of the State of Alaska of any lien or security interest created by the Financing Agreements, either upon maturity or upon acceleration under circumstances described in clause (ii) above. |
D-3 With respect to our opinion in paragraph C-5 above, the following Alaska statutes and court decisions may operate to limit further the enforceability of certain provisions of the Indenture and other Financing Agreements:
(i) | Alaska Statute 9.45.200, which prohibits simultaneous actions for recovery of a debt secured by a mortgage or deed of trust, and an action foreclosing on such mortgage or deed of trust, and prohibits a subsequent action for foreclosure of a lien unless judgment was given on the debt in the earlier action and execution on that judgment is returned unsatisfied in whole or in part. |
(ii) | Alaska Statute 34.20.100, which prohibits any action or proceeding for a deficiency on an obligation secured by a deed of trust after a foreclosure pursuant to Alaska Statute 34.20.070-34.20.130, Alaska’s non-judicial foreclosure statute. This statute “limits the creditor’s rights to pursue further legal action or process against his debtor for any deficiency in the obligation following a non-judicial foreclosure of the property. The limitation does not bar the retention of additional security specifically pledged on the obligation.” Hull v. Alaska Federal Savings & Loan Assoc., 658 P.2d 122, 125 (Alaska 1983). |
(iii) | Alaska Statute 34.20.070, which allows cure of a default during the pendency of a non-judicial foreclosure, causing the non-judicial sale to be discontinued upon such cure, even though the obligations had been declared accelerated. The statute, however, provides that after two such cures of the same deed of trust, the trustee may elect to refuse payment and continue the sale. |
(iv) | Alaska Statute 34.20.160, which provides that if a lender wishes to retain the option to sue on a note secured by a mortgage or deed of trust and obtain a personal judgment against the mortgagor or trustor and any other party bound by the note, without first foreclosing the mortgage or deed of trust, the note must affirmatively so advise the mortgagor or trustor and any other party bound by the note. The statute provides that the following language in a note is sufficient: |
The mortgagor or trustor (borrower) is personally obligated and fully liable for the amount due under the note. The mortgagee or beneficiary (lender) has the right to sue on the note and obtain a personal judgment against the mortgagor or trustor for satisfaction of the amount due under the note either before or after a judicial foreclosure of the mortgage or deed of trust under AS 09.45.170 - 09.45.220.

(v) | The doctrine of res judicata and the “rule prohibiting splitting a cause of action,” as adopted by the courts of the State of Alaska, including as set forth in Tolstrup x. Xxxxxx, 726 P.2d 1304, 1306-07 (Alaska 1986) which holds that a second suit is barred “when the matter therein could have been decided in the first suit,” including claims that could have been brought, but were not, and Xxxxxxxx x. Xxxxxxx, 993 P.2d 409, 412 (Alaska 1999), which holds that all claims arising out of a single transaction must be brought in a single suit, and those that are not become extinguished by the judgment in the suit in which some of the claims were brought. |
(vi) | The ability of parties to a deed of trust or assignment of leases, by reciting that the assignment of rents is immediately perfected and xxxxxx, to modify the general principle of law, especially as to the rights of third parties, adopted by the Alaska Supreme Court in Xxxxxx x. Xxxxxxx Bank and Trust Co., 671 P.2d 875, 879 (Alaska 1983) that “a rent clause in a deed of trust, which allows the beneficiary to collect rents upon default to satisfy the secured debt, does not automatically assign the rents accruing after the date of default to the beneficiary. The beneficiary must take some action to acquire possession of the property or rents before the rent clause becomes operative.” Nevertheless, it is common for deeds of trust and assignments of leases in Alaska to recite that the assignment of rents is immediately effective, with the idea of staking out a position favorable to the beneficiary which might or might not hold up if challenged. |
(vii) | The enforceability of any judgment rendered by the foreign jurisdiction pursuant to a forum selection clause directing the parties to litigate issues concerning real property located in the State of Alaska in another forum in light of the decision adopted by the Alaska Supreme Court in Abadou v. Trad, 624 P.2d 287 (Alaska 1981) where the Alaska Supreme Court had occasion to consider the effect of a forum selection clause designating Lebanon as the forum for resolution of all claims arising out of a contract respecting joint ownership of lands located in Alaska. The Alaska Supreme Court first determined there was no statute containing “language of exclusivity” specifically prohibiting the resolution of such actions in another forum. Id. at 290. Therefore, absent evidence of some other factor rendering such a result inequitable (such as inequality of bargaining power), the forum selection clause prevailed over the venue statute. Id. at 290-91. The court also rejected the argument that the clause ousted Alaska courts of rightful jurisdiction, and found that the clause was not per se void. Id. at 290. The court noted, however, that the Lebanese court would not have jurisdiction to |
Purchasers of Chugach Electric Association, Inc. First Mortgage Bonds, 2012 Series A
January 11, 2012
Page 8
order a partition or judicial sale as requested in the plaintiff’s complaint, noting that “[t]he only state which can, by operation of law and apart from the act of the parties, transfer title in land out of one person and into another is the state where the land lies.” Id. at 291 n.6 (quoting X. Xxxxxx, American Conflicts of Law § 173 (3d ed. 1977)). However, the Lebanese court could, by virtue of its in personam jurisdiction over the parties, order the parties to execute deeds to the property as among themselves, or order other relief appropriate under the contract. Id. The court noted that the fact that the case must be brought in a Lebanese court in the first instance did not necessarily mean that the Lebanese judgment would be effective in Alaska, and that “only if [the plaintiff] cannot obtain relief in that forum should he be able to re-file his action in an Alaskan court.” Id. at 292-93. |
D-4 The courts of the States of Alaska and New York may consider extrinsic evidence surrounding the making of the Financing Agreements to ascertain the intent of the parties in using the language employed therein and may incorporate additional or supplementary terms into the Financing Agreements in order to effectuate the intent of the parties.
E. | Exclusions |
The opinions set forth herein are subject to customary exclusions, including the following matters as to which we express no opinion:
E-1 The effect of, or compliance with, any federal or state securities laws, except to the extent specifically provided in paragraphs C-9, C-10 and C-15, or whether any consents, approvals, authorizations, licenses, filings, registrations or qualifications may be required under state securities or Blue Sky laws in connection with the execution and delivery of the Financing Agreements and consummation by the Company of the transactions contemplated by the Bond Purchase Agreement, including the issue and sale of the 2012 Series A Bonds pursuant to the Indenture.
E-2 The effect of, or compliance with, any land use, zoning, environmental, health and safety, building code or human disabilities laws, rules or regulations.
E-3 The perfection of a security interest in as-extracted collateral, timber to be cut or collateral represented by a certificate of title.
E-4 The priority of any mortgage lien or security interest.

Moreover, to the extent that any of the agreements and instruments identified in the Material Agreements are governed by the laws of any jurisdiction other than the State of Alaska, my opinion relating to those agreements and instruments is based solely upon the plain meaning of their language without regard to interpretation or construction that might be indicated by the laws governing those agreements and instruments.

B. | Opinions |
Based on the foregoing examinations and assumptions and subject to the qualifications and exclusions stated below, I am of the opinion that:
B-1 The Company is an electric cooperative validly existing under Alaska law.
B-2 The Company has corporate power and authority to enter into, and to perform its obligations under, each of the Financing Agreements, and to own its properties and to carry on its business as, to my knowledge, it is now conducted.
B-3 The Company has authorized, by all necessary corporate action on the part of the Company, the execution and delivery of each of the Financing Agreements.
B-4 The Company has duly executed and delivered each of the Financing Agreements.

B-5 The execution and delivery by the Company of, and the performance by the Company of the transactions contemplated by, each of the Financing Agreements do not (a) violate the Company’s Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws, (b) breach, or result in a default under, any existing obligation of the Company under the Material Agreements.
B-6 The execution and delivery by the Company of, and the performance of the transactions contemplated by, each of the Financing Agreements (including the issue and sale of the 2012 Series A Bonds) are not prohibited by, nor do they violate, any applicable statutes or regulations of any governmental agency or body having jurisdiction over the Company or any of its properties, or any order of any agency or body having jurisdiction over the Company of which I have knowledge.
B-7 No consent, approval, authorization, order, license, filing, registration or qualification of or with any governmental agency or body having jurisdiction over the Company or any of its properties is required for execution and delivery of the Financing Documents and consummation by the Company of the transactions contemplated by the Bond Purchase Agreement, including the issue and sale of the 2012 Series A Bonds pursuant to the Indenture.
B-8 To my knowledge, there are no actions or proceedings against the Company pending before any court, government agency or arbitrator, or overtly threatened in writing, that seek to affect the enforceability of any of the Financing Agreements or security interests or liens in any real or personal property granted in any of the Financing Agreements or that, if adversely determined against the Company, would adversely affect the ability of the Company to comply with its obligations under the Bond Purchase Agreement.
This opinion letter is delivered as of its date and without any undertaking to advise you of any changes of law or fact that occur after the date of this opinion letter even though the changes may affect the legal analysis, a legal conclusion or information confirmed in this opinion letter.
