An Officer shall execute, deliver and file any other certificates (and any amendments and/or restatements thereof) necessary for the Company to qualify to do business in any jurisdiction in which the Company may wish to conduct business. To the extent that the rights or obligations of the Member are different by reason of any provision of this Agreement than they would be in the absence of such provision, this Agreement shall, to the extent permitted by the Act, control.

Section 2.02 Name. The name of the Company shall be PSNH Funding LLC 3.

Section 2.03 Principal Office. The location of the principal place of business of the Company shall be at such location as shall be provided from time to time by the Administrator under the Administration Agreement.

The registered agent of the Company shall be the initial registered agent named in the Certificate or such other Person or Persons as the Member may designate from time to time in the manner provided by the Act. The registered office of the Company required by the Act to be maintained in the State of Delaware shall be the initial registered office named in the Certificate or such other office (which need not be a place of business of the Company) as the Member may designate from time to time in the manner provided by the Act.

Section 2.05 Purpose. The Company is intended to qualify as a “financing entity” as defined in RSA 369-B:2, VI. As such, the purpose for which the Company is formed is limited solely to the following activities:

(e) to invest proceeds from the RRB Property and its other assets and any capital and income of the Company in accordance with the Basic Documents or as otherwise determined by the Management Committee and not inconsistent with this Agreement or the Basic Documents;

(f) to execute any registration statement, offering document or related agreements or disclosures related to the issuance of rate reduction bonds or other instruments secured by the RRB Property; and

(g) to engage in any lawful act or activity and to exercise any powers permitted to limited liability companies formed under the laws of the State of Delaware that, in either case, are incidental to and necessary, suitable or convenient for the accomplishment of the above-mentioned purposes.

The Company shall not engage in any activity other than in connection with the foregoing or other than as required or authorized by the terms of the Sale Agreement, any Basic Document or any other agreement referenced above. The Company shall have all powers reasonably necessary or convenient to effect the foregoing purposes, including all powers granted under the Act. The Company, and any Officer or Manager, on behalf of the Company, and the Member may enter into the Basic Documents and the Rate Reduction Bonds and perform their respective obligations under the Basic Documents and the Rate Reduction Bonds and all documents, agreements, certificates or financing statements contemplated thereby or related thereto, all without any further act, vote or approval of the Member, the Management Committee, any Manager or other person or entity, notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the Act, or other applicable law, rule or regulation. The authorization set forth in the preceding sentence shall not be deemed a restriction on the power and authority of any Officer or Manager, including any Independent Manager, to enter into other agreements or documents on behalf of the Company, to the extent permitted hereunder.

Section 2.06 Separate Existence. The Company, and the Member and the Management Committee on behalf of the Company, shall:

(f) Pay all of its operating expenses incurred by it from the assets of the Company, and ensure that, to the extent that it jointly contracts with the Member or any member of the PSNH Affiliated Group to do business with vendors or service providers or to share overhead expenses, the costs incurred in so doing shall be allocated fairly among such entities, and each such entity shall bear its fair share of such costs.

(g) Maintain a principal executive and administrative office through which its business is conducted separate from those of the Member and any Affiliate of the PSNH Affiliated Group. To the extent that the Company and the Member or any Affiliate of the PSNH Affiliated Group have offices in contiguous or shared space, there shall be fair and appropriate allocation of overhead costs among them, and each such entity shall bear its fair share of such expenses.

(h) Observe all necessary, appropriate and customary formalities required by its organizational documents and applicable law, including, but not limited to, holding all regular and special meetings including meetings of the Management Committee, appropriate to authorize all action on behalf of the Company, keeping all resolutions or consents necessary to authorize actions taken or to be taken, maintaining accurate and separate books, records and accounts, including, but not limited to, payroll and intercompany transaction accounts, and keeping its financial statements separate and apart from, and not consolidated with, those of any other Person; provided, however, that the Company may be included in the consolidated financial

ARTICLE 3

Section 3.02 Continuation. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement, a Bankruptcy of the Member or Special Member will not cause the Member or Special Member, respectively, to cease to be a member of the Company, and upon the occurrence of such an event, the Company shall continue without dissolution.

ARTICLE 4

CAPITAL CONTRIBUTIONS

Section 4.01 Capital Contribution. The Member shall be permitted to make Capital Contributions in cash or property to the Company on such terms and conditions as may be agreed to by the Member from time to time. The amounts so contributed by the Member shall be credited to the Member’s capital account, as provided in Section 4.02 below. The Member shall have a Membership Interest of one hundred percent (100%) of the Company.

Section 4.02 Capital Account. The Company shall establish an individual Capital Account for the Member (the “Capital Account”).

ARTICLE 5

ALLOCATIONS; BOOKS

Section 5.01 Allocations of Income and Loss.

(a) Book Allocations. The net income and net loss of the Company shall be allocated entirely to the Capital Account of the Member.

(b) Tax Allocations. Because the Company is not making (and will not make) an election to be treated as an association taxable as a corporation under Section 301.7701-3(a) of the U.S. Treasury Regulations, and because the Company is a business entity that has a single owner and is not a corporation, it shall be disregarded as an entity separate from its owner for federal income tax purposes under Section 301.7701-3(b)(1) of the U.S. Treasury Regulations and shall not take any action inconsistent with such treatment. Accordingly, all items of income, gain, loss, deduction and credit of the Company for all taxable periods will be treated for federal income tax purposes, and for state and local income and other tax purposes to the extent permitted by applicable law, as realized or incurred directly by the Member. To the extent not so permitted, all items of income, gain, loss, deduction and credit of the Company shall be allocated entirely to the Member.

Section 5.02 Books of Account. At all times during the continuance of the Company, the Company shall maintain or cause to be maintained full, true, complete and correct books of account in accordance with GAAP, using the fiscal year and taxable year of the Member. In addition, the Company shall keep all records required to be kept pursuant to the Act.

Section 5.03 Distributions. The Company may make distributions to the Member from time to time upon the unanimous vote of the Management Committee. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall distribute all Capital Subaccount Investment Earnings to the Member upon the release of such funds pursuant to Section 8.02(g) of the Indenture. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained in this Agreement, the Company shall not be required to make a distribution to the Member on account of its interest in the Company if such distribution would violate the Act or any other applicable law or any of the Basic Documents.

ARTICLE 6

MANAGEMENT OF THE COMPANY

Section 6.01 Management of Company. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, the property and business of the Company shall be controlled and managed by the Management Committee, composed of Managers appointed by the Member. Notwithstanding the last sentence of Section 18-402 of the Act, except as provided in this Agreement, a Manager may not bind the Company. Prior to the entry into the Sale Agreement and the acquisition of any RRB Property, the Member shall appoint at least one Independent Manager. The Company shall pay each Independent Manager an annual fee as agreed to between the Company and each Independent Manager (the “Independent Manager Fee”). Each Manager, including each Independent Manager, is hereby deemed to be a “manager” within the meaning of Section 18-101(10) of the Act.

Section 6.02 Withdrawal of Manager. Any Manager (other than any Independent Manager) may resign as a Manager of the Company by delivering notice of such resignation to the Member. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, until such time as the Indenture has been discharged in accordance with its terms, an Independent Manager may not withdraw or resign as a Manager of the Company unless the Member has previously or concurrently with such resignation appointed a replacement Independent Manager. In the event that an Independent Manager withdraws, resigns or is removed as Independent Manager, unless the Indenture has been discharged in accordance with its terms, the Member shall appoint, as soon as reasonably practicable, a successor Independent Manager. Promptly following any resignation or replacement of any Independent Manager, the Member shall give written notice to each applicable Rating Agency of any such resignation or replacement.

Section 6.03 Duties of Managers. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, including without limitation Section 18-1101(c) of the Act, the Managers (including the Independent Manager) shall consider only the interests of the Company, including its creditors, in acting or otherwise voting on the matters referred to in this Agreement. To the fullest extent permitted by law, except for duties to the Company as set forth in the immediately preceding sentence (including duties to the Member and the Company’s creditors solely to the extent of

their respective economic interests in the Company, but excluding (i) all other interests of the Member, (ii) the interests of other Affiliates of the Company, and (iii) the interests of any group of Affiliates of which the Company is a part), the Managers shall not have any fiduciary duties to the Member or any other Person bound by this Agreement. Each Manager shall execute and deliver the Management Agreement.

Section 6.04 Removal of Manager. Any Manager (other than any Independent Manager) may be removed at any time, with or without cause, upon the written election of the Member. Unless the Indenture Trustee shall have consented in writing (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) or the Indenture has been discharged in accordance with its terms, an Independent Manager may not be removed by the Member except for Cause; provided that any Independent Manager’s unwillingness to approve an Event of Bankruptcy shall not, in and of itself, constitute “Cause” for removal or expulsion of the Independent Manager.

Section 6.05 Quorum: Acts of the Management Committee. At all meetings of the Management Committee, a majority of the Managers shall constitute a quorum for the transaction of business and, except as otherwise provided in any other provision of this Agreement, the act of a majority of the Managers present at any meeting at which there is a quorum shall be the act of the Management Committee. If a quorum shall not be present at any meeting of the Management Committee, the Managers present at such meeting may adjourn the meeting from time to time, without notice other than announcement at the meeting, until a quorum shall be present. The Managers may participate in meetings of the Management Committee by means of telephone conference or similar communications equipment that allows all persons participating in the meeting to hear each other, and such participation in a meeting shall constitute presence in person at the meeting. If all the participants are participating by telephone conference or similar communications equipment, the meeting shall be deemed to be held at the principal place of business of the Company. Any action required or permitted to be taken at any meeting of the Management Committee or any committee thereof may be taken without a meeting, without prior notice and without a vote, if a consent or consents in writing, setting forth the action so taken shall be signed by the Managers having not less than the minimum number of votes that would be necessary to authorize or take such action at a meeting at which all Managers entitled to vote thereon were present and voted.

Section 6.06 Officers. The Member or the Management Committee may, from time to time as it deems advisable, appoint officers of the Company (the “Officers”) and assign in writing titles (including, without limitation, President, Vice President, Secretary, and Treasurer) to any such person. Unless the Member decides otherwise, if the title is one commonly used for officers of a business corporation formed under the Delaware General Corporation Law the assignment of such title shall constitute the delegation to such person of the authorities and duties that are normally associated with that office. Any delegation pursuant to this Section 6.06 may be revoked at any time by the Member or the Management Committee. The initial Officers shall be those individuals listed on Exhibit C attached hereto.

Section 6.07 Special Members.

ARTICLE 10

INDEMNIFICATION

Section 10.01 Indemnification. Subject to Section 10.03 of this Article, the Company shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, indemnify any person who was or is a

party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative (other than an action by or in the right of the Company) by reason of the fact that he is or was a director, manager, officer, employee or agent of the Company, or is or was serving at the request of the Company as a manager, director, officer, employee or agent of another company, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, against any and all losses, liabilities, expenses (including attorneys’ fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement in connection with action, suit, proceeding or in enforcing such person’s right to indemnification hereunder, in each case, actually and reasonably incurred by such Person, if such Person acted in good faith and in a manner reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the Company, and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe such conduct was unlawful; provided that such Person shall not be entitled to indemnification if such judgment, penalty, fine or other expense was directly caused by such Person’s fraud, gross negligence or willful misconduct.

Section 10.02 Indemnification for Suits by or in Right of Company. Subject to Section 10.03 of this Article, the Company shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, indemnify any person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action or suit by or in the right of the Company to procure a judgment in its favor by reason of the fact that he is or was a director, manager, officer, employee or agent of the Company, or is or was serving at the request of the Company as a manager, director, officer, employee or agent of another company, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise against losses, liabilities, expenses (including attorneys’ fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement of such action or suit or enforcing such person’s right to indemnification hereunder, in each case, actually and reasonably incurred by such Person, if such Person acted in good faith and in a manner reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the Company; provided that such Person shall not be entitled to indemnification if such judgment, penalty, fine or other expense was directly caused by such Person’s fraud, gross negligence or willful misconduct. No indemnification shall be made in respect of any claim, issue or matter as to which such person shall have been adjudged to be liable to the Company unless and only to the extent that the Court of Chancery or the court in which such action or suit was brought shall determine upon application that, despite the adjudication of liability but in view of all the circumstances of the case, such person is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnity for such expenses as the Court of Chancery or such other court shall deem proper.

Section 10.03 Authorization. Any indemnification under this Article (unless ordered by a court) shall be made by the Company only as authorized in the specific case upon a determination that indemnification of the manager, officer, employee or agent is proper in the circumstances because he has met the applicable standard of conduct set forth in Section 10.01 or Section 10.02, of this Article, as the case may be. Such determination may be made (i) by independent legal counsel to the Company in a written opinion or (ii) by the Member. To the extent, however, that a manager, officer, employee or agent of the Company has been successful on the merits or otherwise in defense of any action, suit or proceeding described above, or in defense of any claim, issue or matter therein, such Person shall be indemnified against expenses (including attorneys’ fees) actually and reasonably incurred by such Person in connection therewith, without the necessity of authorization in the specific case.

Section 10.04 Good Faith. For purposes of any determination under Sections 10.03 or 9.09 of this Agreement, a person shall be deemed to have acted in good faith and in a manner he reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the Company, or, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, to have had no reasonable cause to believe his conduct was unlawful, if his action is based on the records or books of account of the Company or of the Servicer or Administrator or of another enterprise, or on information supplied to him by the officers of the Company or of the Servicer or Administrator or of another enterprise in the course of their duties, or on the advice of legal counsel for the Company or of the Servicer or Administrator or of another enterprise or on information or records given or reports made to the Company or of the Servicer or Administrator or of another enterprise by an independent certified public accountant or by an appraiser or other expert selected with reasonable care by the Company or of the Servicer or Administrator or of another enterprise. The term “another enterprise” as used in this Section 10.04 shall mean any corporation, partnership, limited liability company, joint venture, trust or other enterprise of which such person is or was serving at the request of the Company as a manager, director, officer, employee or agent. The provisions of this Section 10.04 shall not be deemed to be exclusive or to limit in any way the circumstances in which a person may be deemed to have met the applicable standard of conduct set forth in Sections 10.01 or 10.02 of this Article, as the case maybe.

Section 10.05 Court Action. Notwithstanding any contrary determination in the specific case under Section 10.03 of this Article, and notwithstanding the absence of any determination thereunder, any manager, officer, employee or agent may apply to any court of competent jurisdiction in the State of Delaware for indemnification to the extent otherwise permissible under Sections 10.01 and 10.02 of this Article. The basis of such indemnification by a court shall be a determination by such court that indemnification of the manager, officer, employee or agent is proper in the circumstances because he has met the applicable standards of conduct set forth in Section 10.01 and 10.02 of this Article, as the case may be. Notice of any application for indemnification pursuant to this Section 10.05 shall be given to the Company promptly upon the filing of such application.

Section 10.06 Expenses. Expenses incurred in defending or investigating a threatened or pending action, suit or proceeding may be paid by the Company in advance of the final disposition of such action, suit or proceeding upon receipt of an undertaking by or on behalf of the manager, officer, employee or agent to repay such amount if it shall ultimately be determined that he is not entitled to be indemnified by the Company as authorized in this Article.

Section 10.07 Non-Exclusivity. The indemnification and advancement of expenses provided by or granted pursuant to this Article shall not be deemed exclusive of any other rights to which those seeking indemnification or advancement of expenses may be entitled under any by-law, agreement, contract, vote or pursuant to the direction (howsoever embodied) of any court of competent jurisdiction or otherwise, both as to action in his official capacity and as to action in another capacity while holding such office, it being the policy of the Company that indemnification of the persons specified in Sections 10.01 and 10.02 of this Article shall be made to the fullest extent permitted by law. The provisions of this Article shall not be deemed to preclude the indemnification of any person who is not specified in Section 10.01 or 10.02 of this Article but who the Company has the power or obligation to indemnify under the provisions of the Act, or otherwise.

Section 10.08 Insurance. The Company may purchase and maintain insurance on behalf of any person who is or was a manager, officer, employee or agent of the Company, or is or was serving at the request of the Company as a manager, director, officer, employee or agent of another company, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise against any liability asserted against him/her and incurred by him/her in any such capacity, or arising out of his/her status as such, whether or not the Company would have the power or the obligation to indemnify him against such liability under the provisions of this Article.

Section 10.09 Consolidation/Merger. For purposes of this Article, references to “the Company” shall include, in addition to the Company, any constituent company (including any constituent of a constituent) absorbed in a consolidation or merger that, if its separate existence had continued, would have had the power and authority to indemnify its managers, directors, officers, and employees or agents, so that any person who is or was a manager, director, officer, employee or agent of such constituent company, or is or was serving at the request of such constituent company as a manager, director, officer, employee or agent of another company, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, shall stand in the same position under the provisions of this Article with respect to the resulting or surviving company as he would have with respect to such constituent company if its separate existence had continued.

Section 10.10 Heirs, Executors, and Administrators. The indemnification and advancement of expenses provided by, or granted pursuant to, this Article shall, unless otherwise provided when authorized or ratified, continue as to a person who has ceased to be a manager, director, office, employee or agent and shall inure to the benefit of the heirs, executors and administrators of such a person.

Section 10.11 Non-Petition. Notwithstanding any prior termination of this Agreement or the Indenture, neither the Member nor any Manager (including any Independent Manager) shall, prior to the date which is one year and one day after the termination of the Indenture, petition or otherwise invoke or cause the Company to invoke the process of any court or government authority for the purpose of commencing or sustaining an involuntary case against the Company under any Federal or state bankruptcy, insolvency or similar law, appointing a receiver, liquidator, assignee, trustee, custodian, sequestrator or other similar official of the Company or any substantial part of the property of the Company, or ordering the winding up or liquidation of the affairs of the Company.
