At the time of the delivery of the Preliminary Statement, the Member Representative shall deliver to Parent a schedule (the “Payout Schedule”) showing (i) the number of Interests to be outstanding (whether vested or unvested) immediately prior to the Effective Time and the owners thereof and (ii) the allocation of the Base Purchase Price (before adjustment pursuant to Section 3.04(e)) among such owners. Such Payout Schedule shall be final, binding and conclusive upon all Members.

3.02 Effects on Interests. At the Effective Time, by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of any Member or the owners of the Equity Interests of Merger Sub:

(a) Merger Sub. Each issued and outstanding Equity Interest of Merger Sub shall be converted into and become an Equity Interest of the Surviving Entity.

(b) Conversion of Interests. Each Interest (whether vested or unvested) shall be converted into the right to receive (i) a portion of the Base Purchase Price determined in accordance with Section 6.06 of the LLC Agreement (but assuming that all of the Base Purchase Price is available for distribution to the Members), which amount shall be set forth in the Payout Schedule (the “Cash Consideration”), plus (ii) a pro rata share of the cash payment, if any, to be made to the Members pursuant to Section 3.04(e) less (iii) in the case of the ECP Members only, a pro rata share of the cash payment, if any, to be made by the ECP Members pursuant to Section 3.04(e). The cash payable upon the conversion of the Interests (whether vested or unvested) pursuant to this Section 3.02(b) is referred to collectively as “Merger Consideration”. As of the Effective Time, all Interests (whether vested or unvested) shall no longer be outstanding and shall automatically be cancelled and retired and shall cease to exist, and each holder of Interests (whether vested or unvested) shall cease to have any rights with respect thereto, except the right to receive such holder’s portion of the Merger Consideration.

3.03 Exchange Procedures.

(a) All Cash Consideration to be paid to the ECP Members shall be paid by Parent at the Closing by wire transfer of cash in immediately available funds in the amounts and to the accounts set forth in the Payout Schedule.

(b) At least ten (10) Business Days prior to the Effective Time, Parent shall mail to each Non-ECP Member, (i) a letter of transmittal (which shall be in such form and have such provisions as Parent and the Company may reasonably agree, including (A) representations and warranties of such Non-ECP Member substantially similar to those contained in ARTICLE V and (B) an agreement by the Non-ECP Members to be bound by the terms of ARTICLE XII),

Upon delivery of such Letter of Transmittal and affidavit to Parent, duly executed, the Non-ECP Member shall be entitled to receive, upon the later to occur of the Closing or the date such Non-ECP Member delivers such Letter of Transmittal and affidavit to Parent, in exchange for his or her Interests an amount of cash equal to the portion of the Cash Consideration that the holder of such Interests is entitled to receive pursuant to Section 3.02(b), and the Interests so surrendered shall forthwith be cancelled. Until surrendered as contemplated by this Section 3.03(b), each Interest of a Non-ECP Member shall be deemed at any time after the Effective Time to represent only the right to receive upon such surrender each holder’s portion of the Cash Consideration as contemplated by this ARTICLE III. No interest shall be paid or accrue on any cash payable upon surrender of any Interests.

(c) The Merger Consideration paid in accordance with the terms of this ARTICLE III upon conversion of any Interests (whether vested or unvested) shall be deemed to have been paid in full satisfaction of all rights pertaining to such Interests (whether vested or unvested), and after the Effective Time there shall be no further registration of transfers on the transfer books of the Surviving Entity of Interests (whether vested or unvested) that were outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time.

(d) Parent shall be entitled to withhold and pay to the pertinent Tax Authority any and all Taxes required to be withheld by Applicable Law from the payments of the Merger Consideration. Any withheld amounts shall, to the extent timely paid over to the pertinent Tax Authority, be treated for purposes of this Agreement as if they had been paid to the affected Member.

3.04 Adjustments to Cash Purchase Price.

(a) A representative designated by the ECP Members (the “Member Representative”) shall, at least two (2) Business Days prior to the Closing Date, cause to be prepared and delivered to Parent a statement (the “Preliminary Statement”) setting forth the Member Representative’s good faith estimates of (i) the Debt Obligations of the Company and the Company Subsidiaries outstanding on the Closing Date but immediately prior to the Closing (other than indebtedness owed to the Company or the Company Subsidiaries) (the “Closing Date Indebtedness”), (ii) the amount of Cash Equivalents of the Company and the Company Subsidiaries on the Closing Date but immediately prior to the Closing (the “Closing Date Cash”), (iii) the amount of all unpaid Transaction Expenses on the Closing Date but immediately prior to the Closing (the “Estimated Transaction Expenses”), (iv) the amount of Development and Other Expenses (the “Estimated Development and Other Expenses”), (v) the aggregate amount of Prorated Company 2010 Bonuses paid to Company Employees on the Closing Date (the “Estimated Prorated 2010 Bonuses”) and (vi) to the extent applicable, the Payables Amount (the “Estimated Payables Amount”).

(b) Within sixty (60) days after the Closing Date, Parent shall cause to be prepared and delivered to the Member Representative a statement (the “Statement”) setting forth Parent’s calculations of Closing Date Indebtedness, Closing Date Cash, Transaction Expenses, Development and Other Expenses, Prorated Company 2010 Bonuses, True-Up Payables Amount, Payables Amount and the Payables Offset. At the same time, Parent shall also cause to be prepared and delivered to the Member Representative a statement (the “Adjustment Statement”) setting forth the calculations (in each case whether a positive or negative number) of (i) the amount of the Estimated Closing Date Indebtedness minus the Closing Date Indebtedness as shown on the Statement, (ii) the amount of the Closing Date Cash as shown on the Statement minus the Estimated Closing Date Cash, (iii) the amount of Estimated Transaction Expenses minus the Transaction Expenses as shown on the Statement, (iv) the amount of Development and Other Expenses as shown on the Statement minus the Estimated Development and Other Expenses, (v) the amount of Prorated Company 2010 Bonuses as shown on the Statement minus the Estimated Prorated 2010 Bonuses and (vi) the True-Up Payables Amount. The sum of the amounts referred to in clauses (i), (ii), (iii), (iv), (v) and (vi) above, whether a positive or negative number, is referred to hereinafter as the “Adjustment Amount”. Parent shall provide the Member Representative and its accountants with reasonable access, upon reasonable prior notice and during normal business hours, to the relevant books and records and employees of the Company and the Company Subsidiaries to the extent required in connection with its review of and any dispute with respect to the Statement and the Adjustment Statement and shall furnish the Member Representative with any other information that might be relevant to the calculation of Closing Date Indebtedness, Closing Date Cash, Transaction Expenses, Development and Other Expenses, Prorated Company 2010 Bonuses, and True-Up Payables Amount, but only to the extent that such access does not unreasonably interfere with the business and operations of the Company and the Company Subsidiaries.

(c) After receipt of the Statement and the Adjustment Statement, the Member Representative will have thirty (30) days from receipt to review the Statement and the Adjustment Statement together with the workpapers used in their preparation. Unless the Member Representative delivers to Parent written notice setting forth in reasonable detail the specific items disputed by the Member Representative and a written statement setting forth the Member Representative’s calculation of each line item shown on the Statement so disputed and the amount in dispute (the “Member Representative Statement”) on or prior to the thirtieth (30^th) day after its receipt of the Statement and the Adjustment Statement, the Member Representative will be deemed to have accepted and agreed to the Statement and the Adjustment Statement and such agreement will be final, binding and conclusive. Any items on the Statement or Adjustment Statement as to which the Member Representative has not given notice of its objection and provided an alternative calculation on the Member Representative Statement will be deemed to have been agreed upon by the Parties. If the Member Representative so notifies Parent of its objections to any of the Statement or the Adjustment Statement and provides Parent with the Member Representative Statement in a timely manner, Parent and the Member Representative will, within thirty (30) calendar days following such notice (the “Resolution Period”), attempt to resolve their differences. Any resolution by Parent and the Member Representative during the Resolution Period as to any disputed amounts will be final, binding and conclusive.

(d) If Parent and the Member Representative do not resolve all disputed items by the end of the Resolution Period, then all items remaining in dispute will be submitted within thirty (30) days after the expiration of the Resolution Period to Xxxxx Xxxxxxxx LLP or such other national independent accounting firm mutually acceptable to Parent and the Member Representative (the “Neutral Accounting Arbitrator”). The Neutral Accounting Arbitrator shall act as an arbitrator to determine only those items in dispute and, in the event that either Parent or the Member Representative fails to submit its statement regarding any items remaining in dispute within the time determined by the Neutral Accounting Arbitrator, then the Neutral Accounting Arbitrator shall render a decision based solely on the evidence timely submitted to the Neutral Accounting Arbitrator by Parent or the Member Representative, as applicable. All fees and expenses relating to the work, if any, to be performed by the Neutral Accounting Arbitrator will be allocated between Parent, on the one hand, and the ECP Members, on the other hand, in inverse proportion as they shall prevail on the amounts of such disputed items so submitted (as finally determined by the Neutral Accounting Arbitrator). The Neutral Accounting Arbitrator will deliver to Parent and the Member Representative a written determination (such determination to include a work sheet setting forth all material calculations used in arriving at such determination and to be based solely on information provided to the Neutral Accounting Arbitrator by the Member Representative and Parent) of the disputed items within thirty (30) days of receipt of the disputed items (or as soon as practicable thereafter), which determination will be final, binding and conclusive. The final, binding and conclusive Statement and Adjustment Statement, which either are agreed upon by Parent and the Member Representative, not objected to by the Member Representative or are delivered by the Neutral Accounting Arbitrator in accordance with this Section 3.04(d), will be the “Conclusive Statement” and the “Conclusive Adjustment Statement,” respectively.

(e) If the Adjustment Amount as shown on the Conclusive Adjustment Statement (the “Conclusive Adjustment Amount”) is a negative number, then the Base Purchase Price will be reduced by the amount of the Conclusive Adjustment Amount and each ECP Member shall pay in cash to Parent its pro rata share (based on the payment received by it as a percentage of all payments received by all ECP Members as set forth on the Payment Schedule) of such amount by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account or accounts designated in writing by Parent prior to the date when such payment is due. If the Conclusive Adjustment Amount is a positive number, then the Base Purchase Price will be increased by the amount of the Conclusive Adjustment Amount and Parent shall pay in cash to the Member Representative the Conclusive Adjustment Amount and the Member Representative shall distribute to each Member its pro rata share (based on the payment received by it as a percentage of all payments received by all Members as set forth on the Payment Schedule) of such amount by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account or accounts designated in writing by the Members prior to the date when such payment is due. All payments to be made pursuant to this Section 3.04(e) will be made on or before the fifth (5th) Business Day following the date on which Parent and the Member Representative agree to, or the Neutral Accounting Arbitrator delivers, the Conclusive Statement and the Conclusive Adjustment Statement.

3.05 Allocation of Consideration for Tax Purposes.

(a) The Base Purchase Price, plus any assumed liabilities, to the extent properly taken into account under the Code, shall be allocated among the assets of the Company

and the Company Subsidiaries in accordance with Section 1060 of the Code and the Treasury Regulations promulgated thereunder (and any similar provision of state or local law, as appropriate) (the “Allocation”). The Allocation shall be delivered by Parent to the Member Representative within ninety (90) days after the Closing Date for the Member Representative’s review. Parent and the Member Representative shall work in good faith to resolve any disputes relating to the Allocation. If Parent and the Member Representative are unable to resolve any such dispute within thirty (30) days following the delivery of the Allocation by Parent to the Member Representative, such dispute shall be resolved by the Neutral Accounting Arbitrator in a manner consistent with the procedures set forth in Section 3.04(d).

(b) If the Base Purchase Price is adjusted pursuant to Section 3.04(e), the Allocation shall be adjusted as appropriate in a manner in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 3.05(a). Parent and the Member Representative shall cooperate in good faith in making any such adjustments to the Allocation.

(c) The Parties shall file all Tax Returns consistent with the Allocation. None of the Parties shall take any Tax position inconsistent with such Allocation; provided, however, that nothing contained herein shall prevent any Party from settling any proposed deficiency or adjustment by any Tax Authority based upon or arising out of the Allocation, and no Party shall be required to litigate before any court any proposed deficiency or adjustment by any Tax Authority challenging such Allocation.

3.06 Tax Characterization. The Parties acknowledge that, for U.S. federal income tax purposes, pursuant to Revenue Ruling 99-6, 1999-1 CB 432, the Merger is, and shall be treated by the Parties as, a sale of the Interests by the Members and the purchase of the assets of the Company and the Company Subsidiaries by Parent.

(a) From and after the Closing Date, Parent shall honor, pay, perform and satisfy any and all Liabilities, obligations and responsibilities to or in respect of all current and former employees and Non-ECP Members (including those individuals who are full-time, part-time, temporary, on vacation or on a paid or unpaid leave of absence) (or any dependent or beneficiary thereof) of the Company and any Company Subsidiary (collectively, the “Company Employees”) arising under the terms of each Company Employee Benefit Plan (other than any Company Employee Benefit Plan providing equity compensation or any plan required to be terminated under the first sentence of Section 7.04(e)), as in effect immediately prior to the Closing Date, for as long as such Company Employee Benefit Plan is in effect, including with respect to any payments, benefits or rights arising as a result of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (either alone or in combination with any other event). For purposes of this Agreement, the term “employ”, “employment” and similar variations thereof (including references to the termination thereof) shall be deemed to refer to the service relationship between the Non-ECP Members and the Company or any Company Subsidiary, regardless of whether any such Non-ECP Member is considered an employee for tax purposes.

(b) During the period commencing on the Closing Date and ending on a date not less than twelve (12) months following the Closing Date (the “Benefits Continuation Period”), subject to Section 7.04(e), Parent shall provide each Company Employee with cash compensation (base salary or hourly rate and annual target bonus) that is at least equal to such cash compensation of such Company Employee immediately prior to the Closing Date and benefits that are not less favorable in the aggregate than the aggregate benefits provided to similarly situated employees at the Parent as of the Closing Date. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, Parent shall continue to maintain for the benefit of the Company Employees (and any dependents or beneficiaries thereof), and shall cause the Company Employees (and any dependents or beneficiaries thereof) to remain eligible to participate in, each Company Employee Benefit Plan that is a welfare benefit plan from the Closing Date through the end of the plan year of the corresponding welfare benefit plan maintained by Parent or its subsidiaries to the extent the Company Employees continue to satisfy the eligibility provisions of the applicable Company Employee Benefit Plan as in effect on the date of this Agreement.

(c) Except with respect to any Company Employee who is subject to an Executive Agreement that provides a severance benefit equal to at least six (6) months of base salary in the event of a termination of employment without Cause, during the period commencing on the Closing Date and ending on a date not less than twelve (12) months following the Closing Date, if Parent or its Affiliates terminates the employment of a Company Employee (other than for Cause), Parent shall maintain a severance program providing an aggregate benefit (taking into consideration all other severance arrangements, including under the Executive Agreements) at least equal to six (6) months of base salary (payable in a form to be determined by the Company) to any Company Employee whose employment is involuntarily terminated by Parent or its Affiliates without Cause, subject to such Company Employee’s execution of a valid release of claims in favor of the Company, Parent and their Affiliates.

(d) From and after the Closing Date, Parent shall cause each Company Employee’s service prior to the Closing Date with the Company, any Company Subsidiary, or

any predecessor thereof, to be treated as service with Parent and its Subsidiaries for all purposes (including to determine eligibility to participate, level of benefits, and vesting) under any employee benefit plans, programs or arrangements of Parent and its subsidiaries in which Company Employees may be eligible to participate from and after the Closing Date (including with respect to any vacation, paid time-off and severance benefits), to the same extent such service was recognized under the Company Employee Benefit Plans immediately prior to the Closing Date; provided, however, that such service need not be recognized to the extent that such recognition would result in any duplication of benefits (e.g., under an incentive compensation plan). With respect to any welfare benefit plans maintained by Parent or its subsidiaries for the benefit of Company Employees (and any dependents or beneficiaries thereof) from and after the Closing Date, Parent shall cause such plans to (i) waive any preexisting condition limitations and exclusions to the extent such restrictions were waived immediately prior to the Closing Date, (ii) recognize service with the Company or the Company Subsidiaries for purposes of any actively-at-work requirements, waiting periods and other similar restrictions with respect to the Company Employees (or any dependents or beneficiaries thereof) and (iii) recognize all co-payments, deductibles and other similar expenses incurred by the Company Employees (or any dependents or beneficiaries thereof) during the calendar year in which the Closing Date occurs, to the extent such expenses were recognized immediately prior to the Closing Date.

(e) Effective as of the Closing, the Company shall terminate and satisfy all liabilities under all Company Employee Benefit Plans that are annual or other cash incentive compensation plans; provided, however, that the Parties acknowledge and agree that nothing in this Section 7.04(e) shall affect the obligations of the Company, any Company Subsidiary or Parent pursuant to Section 7.04(f) or under any Executive Agreement (including, for the avoidance of doubt, any obligation to provide an annual cash bonus target) or the obligations of the Company, any Company Subsidiary or Parent to pay the Prorated Company 2010 Bonuses and Prorated Parent 2010 Bonuses in accordance with the remainder of this Section 7.04(e), in each case other than any obligation to continue any plan required to be terminated pursuant to this sentence. The Company shall pay or cause to be paid to each Company Employee set forth on Annex B, subject to such Company Employee’s continued employment with the Company or a Company Subsidiary through the Closing, a bonus in the amount set forth on Annex B opposite such Company Employee’s name, multiplied by a fraction (x) the numerator of which is equal to the number of days elapsed from January 1, 2010 through the Closing Date during which the Company Employee is employed by the Company or a Company Subsidiary, and (y) the denominator of which is 365 (a “Prorated Company 2010 Bonus”). Each such Prorated Company 2010 Bonus shall be paid in a single lump sum cash payment at the Closing. For 2010, Parent shall pay or cause to be paid to each Company Employee set forth on Annex B, subject to such Company Employee’s continued employment with Parent or any of its subsidiaries (including the Company) through December 31, 2010, a bonus in an amount determined under Parent’s 2010 bonus plan applicable to similarly-situated employees (but with a target bonus amount at least equal to such Company Employee’s target bonus amount in effect immediately prior to the Closing Date under the applicable Company Employee Benefit Plan (including as specified in any Executive Agreement)) and with no requirement that the Company Employee be employed by Parent or any of its subsidiaries (other than the Company or the Company Subsidiaries) at any time prior to the Closing Date), multiplied by a fraction (x) the numerator of which is equal to the number of days elapsed from the day immediately following the Closing Date through December 31, 2010, and (y) the denominator of which is 365 (a “Prorated Parent 2010 Bonus”).

Any Company Employee set forth on Annex B whose employment is involuntarily terminated without Cause, or resigns for Good Reason (whether or not the Company Employee is listed on Schedule 7.04(e)), during the period beginning on the Closing Date and ending on December 31, 2010 shall be eligible to receive a Prorated Parent 2010 Bonus in the same amount as if such Company Employee had remained employed through December 31, 2010. Subject to Section 7.04(g), Parent shall pay (or cause to be paid) each such Prorated Parent 2010 Bonus in a lump sum in cash no later than March 15, 2011.

(f) Schedule 7.04(f) sets forth the amount (up to $5,000,000) of a retention pool for the purpose of retaining the services of key Company Employees (the “Retention Pool”), the Company Employees eligible to receive retention awards from the Retention Pool and the amount each Company Employee is eligible to receive (each a “Retention Bonus”), the criteria for payment of the Retention Bonuses, and the final allocation of payments from the Retention Pool, which determination shall not be changed after the Closing and shall only be changed prior to Closing as described in the next sentence. Prior to the Closing but only prior to the time that the Retention Bonuses are communicated to the Company Employees, the Chief Executive Officer of the Company shall be entitled, subject to approval by the Board of Managers of the Company, to reallocate among Company Employees (and subject to the same criteria for payment) up to twenty percent (20%) of the Retention Pool. Any Retention Bonus shall be intended to retain the services of the recipient through, and shall be payable on, subject to Section 7.04(g), the date (the “Retention Payment Date”) that is the earlier of (i) the one-year anniversary of the Closing and (ii) the date of such Company Employee’s involuntary termination of employment after the Closing Date other than for Cause or resignation for Good Reason after the Closing Date (whether or not the Company Employee is listed on Schedule 7.04(e)); provided that such Company Employee remains continuously employed in good standing by the Company through such applicable payment date. Prior to the Closing, the Company may adopt a plan and/or enter into award agreements with Company Employees eligible to receive Retention Bonuses consistent with the terms of this Section 7.04(f) in such form approved by Parent (such approval not to be unreasonably withheld). Each Retention Bonus shall be intended to be exempt from, or comply with, the requirements of Section 409A of the Code and the Department of Treasury regulations and other interpretive guidance issued thereunder.

(g) With respect to the portion of any Losses for which a Non-ECP Member is determined to be liable in accordance with ARTICLE XII, it is expressly acknowledged and agreed that Parent may, but shall not be required to, satisfy any such Losses in accordance with this Section 7.04(g) by set-off against or deduction from the Prorated Parent 2010 Bonus and/or Retention Bonus that such Non-ECP Member would otherwise be eligible to receive absent such Losses, but only to the extent that such determination occurs prior to the Retention Payment Date or the Prorated Parent 2010 Bonus payment date, as applicable.

(h) Parent and the Company shall be entitled to withhold from any amounts payable to Company Employees under this Agreement (including pursuant to Section 7.04(e)-(f)) any federal, state, or local withholding or other taxes or charges which the Company is required to withhold.

(i) Parent, Merger Sub, the ECP Members and the Company acknowledge and agree that all provisions contained in this Section 7.04 are included for the sole benefit of the Parties, and that nothing in this Agreement, whether express or implied, shall be treated as an amendment or other modification of any Company Employee Benefit Plan or other benefit plan, agreement or other arrangement, or shall create any third party beneficiary or other right (i) in any other Person, including any Company Employee or any participant in any Company Employee Benefit Plan or other benefit plan, agreement or other arrangement (or any dependent or beneficiary thereof), or (ii) to continued employment with Parent, the ECP Members, the Company or any of their respective Affiliates.

(j) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, nothing in this Section 7.04 shall inhibit the ability of Parent or the Surviving Entity to terminate the employment of the Company Employees after the Closing Date, with or without cause.

7.05 Supplemental Disclosure. The ECP Members and the Company shall have the right from time to time prior to the Closing Date to supplement or amend the ECP Members’ Disclosure Schedule and the Company’s Disclosure Schedule, as applicable, with respect to any matter hereafter arising or discovered (but, if such matter existed on the date hereof but was only discovered hereafter, only to the extent such matter was not, to the knowledge of the ECP Members or to the Knowledge of the Company, respectively, known as of the date hereof) which if existing or known at the date of this Agreement would have been required to be set forth or described in the ECP Members’ Disclosure Schedule or the Company’s Disclosure Schedule. Any such supplemental or amended disclosure (each a “Disclosure Supplement”) shall be deemed to have cured any such breach of representation or warranty made in this Agreement and to have been disclosed as of the date of this Agreement for purposes of determining whether or not the conditions set forth in ARTICLE VIII have been satisfied, unless the item so disclosed would reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect and Parent is entitled to terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 11.01(c) and exercises such right within ten (10) Business Days after its receipt of such supplemented or amended disclosure.

7.06 No Negotiations. During the Interim Period, the ECP Members, the Company and each Company Subsidiary shall not, and shall cause their Affiliates and Representatives not to, initiate or solicit, directly or indirectly, any inquiries or the making of any proposal with respect to, engage in negotiations concerning, provide any confidential information or data to any Person with respect to, have any discussions with any Person (except with Parent) or enter into any letter of intent or similar document or any agreement or commitment relating to, an Acquisition Proposal and shall immediately cease and cause to be terminated any existing activities, discussions or negotiations with any Persons conducted prior to the date hereof with respect to any of the foregoing. If the Company or any Company Subsidiary, or its respective Representatives, as applicable, receives, prior to the Closing, any Acquisition Proposal, the Company will immediately suspend any discussions with such offeror or Person with regard to such Acquisition Proposal and notify Parent thereof.

Further, each Party agrees for a period of seven (7) years after the Closing Date, or such longer period as such books and records remain relevant to open Tax years, not to destroy or otherwise dispose of any such books, records and other data unless such Party shall first offer by notice to the other to surrender such books, records and other data to the other Party and such other Party shall not agree in writing to take possession thereof, at its cost and expense, during the ten (10) day period after such offer is made.

(c) If, in order to properly prepare its Tax Returns, other documents or reports required to be filed with Governmental Authorities or its financial statements or to fulfill its obligations hereunder, it is necessary that any ECP Member be furnished with additional information, documents or records relating to the business or financial or operating condition of the Company and the Company Subsidiaries, and such information, documents or records are in the possession or control of Parent, Parent agrees to use its reasonable best efforts to furnish or make available such information, documents or records (or copies thereof) at such ECP Member’s request, cost and expense.

(d) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 7.07, if the Parties are in an adversarial relationship in any Action, the furnishing of information, documents or records in accordance with any provision of this Section 7.07 shall be subject to applicable rules relating to discovery.

In addition, in the event that the Company must replace any Support Obligations listed on Schedule 7.08 with cash collateral after the date hereof, the Member Representative shall, within five (5) Business Days prior to the Closing Date, provide Parent a schedule showing the amount of any such cash collateral posted by the Company (the

“New Cash Collateral”), the beneficiary of such New Cash Collateral and the agreement pursuant to which the Company posted such New Cash Collateral. Parent shall, in addition to the Merger Consideration but without any duplication with any component of the Merger Consideration, pay to the Member Representative, for distribution to the ECP Members, the aggregate amount of any New Cash Collateral.

(a) The Indemnified Parties shall promptly give written notice to the Indemnifying Parties of any Third Party Claim that might give rise to any Loss by the Indemnified Parties, stating the nature and basis of such Third Party Claim, and the amount thereof to the extent known; provided, however, that no delay on the part of the Indemnified Party in so notifying the Indemnifying Party shall relieve the Indemnifying Party from any obligation hereunder unless the Indemnifying Party is materially prejudiced thereby. Such notice shall be accompanied by copies of all relevant documentation with respect to such Third Party Claim, including any summons, complaint or other pleading which may have been served, any written demand or any other document or instrument.

(b) From and after receipt of notice of a Third Party Claim pursuant to Section 12.03(a), the Indemnifying Parties shall have the right to assume and conduct, at their own expense, the defense against the Third Party Claim in their own names or in the names of the Indemnified Parties. Any Indemnified Parties shall have the right to employ separate counsel in any such Third Party Claim and/or to participate in the defense thereof, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall not be included as part of any Loss incurred by the Indemnified Party and shall not be payable by the Indemnifying Parties; provided, however, that if the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party shall, based on advice of counsel to the Indemnified Party, have conflicting or different claims or defenses, then the Indemnifying Party shall not have control of such conflicting or differing claims or defenses and the Indemnified Party shall be entitled to appoint one separate counsel for such claims and defenses, at the reasonable cost and expense of the Indemnifying Party. The party or parties conducting the defense of any Third Party Claim shall keep the other parties apprised of all significant developments with respect thereto and shall not enter into any settlement, compromise or consent to judgment with respect to such Third Party Claim without the prior consent of the other parties hereto, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld; provided, however, that the Indemnifying Party shall be entitled to settle, compromise or consent to a judgment without the consent of the Indemnified Party with respect to a Third Party Claim that only imposes monetary obligations that are paid by the Indemnifying Party and contains a release of the Indemnified Party from all

liability thereunder. The Indemnified Party shall make available all information and assistance reasonably available and necessary for the defense of the Third Party Claim as the Indemnifying Party may reasonably request and shall cooperate with the Indemnifying Party in such defense. The Member Representative shall be entitled to exercise any rights of the Members with respect to Third Party Claims under this Section 12.03.

(c) Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Parent determines in good faith that there is a reasonable probability that a Third Party Claim may have a material adverse effect on it or the Surviving Entity, Parent may, by notice to the Indemnifying Parties, assume the exclusive right to defend, compromise or settle such Third Party Claim, but the Indemnifying Parties will not be bound by any compromise or settlement effected without their consent, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld. If Parent should elect to exercise such right, the Indemnifying Parties shall have the right to participate in, but not control, the defense or settlement of such Third Party Claim at their sole cost and expense.

12.04 Limitations on Indemnification.

(a) As to any claim for indemnification pursuant to Section 12.02(a) or 12.02(b) (other than with respect to a claim for indemnification for a breach of Section 7.09), the Indemnified Party shall not be entitled to indemnification (i) with respect to any Loss or a series of related Losses for less than $25,000 and (ii) until all Losses to such Indemnified Party exceed, in the aggregate, $3,000,000 (the “Indemnity Threshold”), in which case such Indemnified Party shall be entitled to indemnification for all such Losses; provided, however, that that any materiality or Material Adverse Effect qualifier will not be taken into account in determining the magnitude of the damages occasioned by the breach of any representation or warranty for purposes of calculating the Indemnity Threshold (once a breach of any representation or warranty has occurred after giving effect to the applicable materiality or Material Adverse Effect qualifiers).

(b) In no event shall any Member in the aggregate be liable for any Losses as to any claim for indemnification pursuant to Section 12.02(a) in excess of an amount equal to fifteen percent (15%) of the Base Purchase Price distributed to it pursuant to Section 3.02(b), and in no event shall Parent in the aggregate be liable for any Losses as to any claim for indemnification pursuant to Section 12.02(b) in excess of an amount equal to fifteen percent (15%) of the Base Purchase Price.

(c) None of the Indemnified Parties shall be entitled to recover from the Indemnifying Parties for any Losses arising under this Agreement or in connection with or with respect to the transactions contemplated in this Agreement any amount in excess of the actual compensatory damages, court costs and reasonable attorneys fees suffered by such Party. Parent and the Members on behalf of each of their respective Indemnified Parties waives any right to recover incidental, indirect, special, exemplary, punitive or consequential damages, including lost revenues or profits, even if such damages are foreseeable or the damaged Party has advised the other Parties of the possibility of such damages and regardless of whether any such damages are deemed to result from the failure or inadequacy of any exclusive or other remedy, unless such incidental, indirect, special, exemplary, punitive, consequential or other kind of special damages are awarded to a Person in an indemnifiable Third Party Claim.

(d) The Members shall have no liability for any breach of this Agreement or any certificate relating hereto delivered by the Members if the Members can demonstrate that Parent or any of its Affiliates or Representatives had actual knowledge of such breach or inaccuracy prior to the Closing; provided, however, that the Members shall be liable, subject to the other limitations set forth in this ARTICLE XII, for any such breach arising out of information contained in a Disclosure Supplement. For purposes of demonstrating Parent’s “actual knowledge” in accordance with the preceding sentence, Parent shall be deemed to have “actual knowledge” of a breach or inaccuracy if such breach or inaccuracy is reasonably apparent from information provided in writing to Parent or any of its Representatives by the Company, the Members or any of their Representatives prior to the date hereof, including in the materials made available in the electronic data room (excluding all attachments to any Phase I Environmental Assessment); provided that the foregoing shall not apply to breaches or inaccuracies of the representation contained in Section 4.04(b) as to which the Members must demonstrate Parent’s actual knowledge without relying on such inference.

(e) Each Person entitled to indemnification hereunder or otherwise to reimbursement for Losses in connection with the transactions contemplated in this Agreement shall use commercially reasonable efforts to mitigate all Losses upon becoming aware of any event or circumstance that could reasonably be expected to give rise to any Losses that are indemnifiable or recoverable hereunder or in connection herewith.

(f) No Indemnifying Party shall have any liability under this ARTICLE XII to indemnify any Indemnified Party with respect to a Loss to the extent that the Loss arose from or was exacerbated by any action taken by any Indemnified Party on or after the Closing Date.

(g) Any indemnifiable claim with respect to any breach or nonperformance by a Party of a representation, warranty, covenant or agreement shall be net of any insurance proceeds received the Indemnified Party (net of any costs of collection or other cost directly related to the insurance claim in respect of Losses). If the Indemnifying Party makes any payment on any claim pursuant to Section 12.02, the Indemnifying Party shall be subrogated, to the extent of such payment, to all rights and remedies of the Indemnified Party to any insurance benefits or other claims of the Indemnified Party with respect to such claim.

12.05 No Contribution. No Indemnifying Party or any of its employees or agents shall have any right of contribution, right of indemnity or other right or remedy against the Company or Company Subsidiaries in connection with any indemnification obligation or any other liability to which she, he or it may become subject under or in connection with this Agreement.

12.06 Remedies Exclusive. The indemnification rights of the Parties under this ARTICLE XII are the exclusive remedies after the Closing available to the Surviving Entity, the Members and Parent with respect to any claims or disputes arising between the Parties with respect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or the Business or the Properties other than claims involving fraud, with respect to which the Parties’ rights and remedies shall not be affected or diminished hereby; provided, however, that nothing contained herein shall affect the rights of the Parties under Section 13.13 with respect to any covenants to be performed after the Closing.

12.07 Non-Recourse. Except as expressly set forth in this ARTICLE XII, no Party shall have recourse whatsoever under this Agreement against any of the Representatives of the other Parties (including for such purposes, the Representatives of any Affiliate of a Party). Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, except as expressly set forth in this ARTICLE XII, Parent, on behalf of itself and its Affiliates, and the Members, on behalf of themselves and their Affiliates, each hereby fully and irrevocably waives any right, claim or entitlement whatsoever against such Representatives relating to any and all Liabilities suffered or incurred by any of them arising from, based upon, related to, or associated with this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby (including any breach, termination or failure to consummate such transactions) in each case whether based on contract, tort, strict liability other laws or otherwise and whether by piercing of the corporate veil, by claim on behalf of or by a Party hereto or other Person or otherwise. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this Section 12.07 shall limit the right of the Company or any Company Subsidiary to bring a claim against any employee of the Company for a breach of the LLC Agreement or a breach of his or her employment Contract with the Company.

ARTICLE XIII.
MISCELLANEOUS

13.01 Entire Agreement. This Agreement supersedes all prior discussions and agreements among the Parties with respect to the subject matter hereof, excluding the Confidentiality Agreement, and contains the sole and entire agreement among the Parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof.

13.02 Expenses. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, whether or not the transactions contemplated by this Agreement are consummated, each Party will pay its own costs and expenses incurred in connection with the negotiation, execution and consummation of the transaction contemplated by this Agreement, including the Merger.

13.03 Confidentiality. Unless and until the Closing occurs, the Parties will abide by the provisions of the Confidentiality Agreement. If the Closing occurs, from and after the Closing Date, the ECP Members will hold, and will use their reasonable best efforts to cause their Affiliates and Representatives to hold, in strict confidence from any other Person all information and documents relating to the Projects and the Company, provided that nothing in this sentence shall limit the disclosure by any Party of any information (a) to the extent required by Applicable Law or judicial process (provided that if permitted by Applicable Law, each Party agrees to give the other Parties prior notice of such disclosure in sufficient time to permit such other Parties to obtain a protective order should they so determine), (b) in connection with any litigation among the Parties (provided that such Party has taken all reasonable actions to limit the scope and degree of disclosure in any such litigation), (c) in an Action brought by a Party in pursuit of its rights or in the exercise of its remedies under this Agreement, (d) to the extent that such documents or information can be shown to have come within the public domain through no action or omission of the disclosing Party or its Affiliates, and (e) to its Affiliates (but the Party shall be liable for any breach by its Affiliates).

of confidential documents and information furnished by such other Parties in connection with this Agreement or the Merger and destroy or cause to be destroyed all notes, memoranda, summaries, analyses, compilations and other writings related to or based on such information or documents prepared by the Party furnished with such documents and information or its Representatives. In case of a conflict between the Confidentiality Agreement and this Section 13.03, the Confidentiality Agreement shall govern.

13.04 Announcements. Parent, the ECP Members and the Company shall consult with each other before issuing any press release with respect to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby.

13.05 No Waiver. No failure on the part of any Party to exercise and no delay in exercising, and no course of dealing with respect to, any right, remedy, power or privilege under this Agreement shall operate as a waiver of such right, remedy, power or privilege, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, remedy, power or privilege under this Agreement preclude any other or further exercise of any such right, remedy, power or privilege or the exercise of any other right, remedy, power or privilege. The rights, remedies, powers and privileges provided in this Agreement are cumulative and not exclusive of any rights, remedies, powers and privileges provided by Applicable Law.

13.06 Amendments. Any provision of this Agreement may be amended, modified, supplemented or waived only by an instrument in writing duly executed by each Party. Any such amendment, modification, supplement or waiver shall be for such period and subject to such conditions as shall be specified in the instrument effecting the same and shall be binding upon the Parties, and any such waiver shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the purposes for which given.

13.08 Captions. The captions and section headings appearing in this Agreement are included solely for convenience of reference and are not intended to affect the interpretation of any provision of this Agreement.

13.09 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 of this Agreement, and any such prohibition or unenforceability in any jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction, and in lieu of such prohibited or unenforceable provision, there will be added automatically as a part of this Agreement a legal, valid and enforceable provision as similar in terms to such prohibited or unenforceable provision as may be possible.

13.10 Assignment. The rights and obligations of the Parties under this Agreement are not assignable without the prior written consent of the other Parties, which such Parties may withhold in their discretion; provided, however, that Parent shall have the right to assign its rights and obligations in connection with a change of control of Parent or sale of all or substantially all of its assets.

13.11 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same instrument and any of the Parties may execute this Agreement by signing any such counterpart.

13.12 Disclosure. The ECP Members and the Company may, at their option, include in the ECP Members’ Disclosure Schedules and the Company’s Disclosure Schedules, respectively, any items that are not material in order to avoid any misunderstanding, and any such inclusion, or any references to dollar amounts, shall not be deemed to be an acknowledgment or representation that such items are material, to establish any standard of materiality or to define further the meaning of such terms for purposes of this Agreement. Information disclosed in any Schedule shall constitute a disclosure for purposes of all other Schedules notwithstanding the lack of specific cross-reference thereto, but only to the extent the applicability of such disclosure to such other Schedule is reasonably apparent. In no event shall the inclusion of any matter in the Schedules be deemed or interpreted to broaden the ECP Members’ or the Company’s representations, warranties, covenants or agreements contained in this Agreement. The mere inclusion of an item in the ECP Members’ Disclosure Schedules or Company’s Disclosure Schedules shall not be deemed an admission by the ECP Members or the Company that such item represents a material exception or fact, event, or circumstance or that such item would be reasonably likely to result in a Material Adverse Effect.

13.13 Specific Performance. The Parties agree that if any of the provisions of this Agreement were not performed in accordance with their specific terms or were otherwise breached, irreparable damage would occur, money damages may not be a sufficient remedy and that the Parties shall be entitled to specific performance of the terms of this Agreement and immediate injunctive relief, without the necessity of proving the inadequacy of money damages as a remedy, in addition to any other remedy at law or in equity.

13.14 Governing Applicable Law. THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK APPLICABLE TO CONTRACTS MADE AND TO BE PERFORMED IN THAT STATE.

13.15 Consent to Jurisdiction.

Each Party agrees that a final judgment in any such Action may be enforced in any other jurisdiction by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by Applicable Law. Nothing in this Agreement shall affect any right that any Party may otherwise have to bring any Action relating to this Agreement against the other Parties or their Properties in the courts of any jurisdiction.

(b) Each Party irrevocably and unconditionally waives, to the fullest extent it may legally and effectively do so:

(i) any objection which it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any Action arising out of or relating to this Agreement or any related matter in any New York state or federal court located in New York County; and

(ii) the defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of such Action in any such court.

(c) Each Party irrevocably consents to service of process by registered mail, return receipt requested, as provided in Section 13.07. Nothing in this Agreement will affect the right of any Party to serve process in any other manner permitted by Applicable Law.

13.16 Waiver of Jury Trial. TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, EACH PARTY HEREBY WAIVES ALL RIGHTS TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL ACTION TO ENFORCE OR INTERPRET THE PROVISIONS OF THIS AGREEMENT OR THAT OTHERWISE RELATES TO THIS AGREEMENT.
