(b) Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, no Member will be required to make any additional Capital Contribution other than (i) with respect to the NEP Member, its Effective Date Capital Contribution made (or deemed to be made) as of the Effective Date; (ii) with respect to Initial Investor, its Initial Capital Contribution made on the Initial Closing Date; and (iii) with respect Initial Investor and any Additional Class B Purchaser, their respective Capital Contributions made, if there is an Additional Closing, on the Additional Closing Date in an aggregate amount equal to the Additional Aggregate Class B Purchase Price. To the fullest extent permitted by Law, the failure of the Company to observe any formalities or requirements relating to the exercise of its powers or management of its business or affairs under this Agreement or the Act will not be grounds for imposing personal liability on the Members for liabilities of the Company.

3.06 Withdrawal of Members. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, no Member will be entitled to (a) voluntarily resign or otherwise Withdraw from the Company; (b) withdraw any part of such Member’s Capital Contributions from the Company; (c) demand the return of such Member’s Capital Contributions; or (d) receive property other than cash in return for such Member’s Capital Contribution, in each case, without the prior written consent of all remaining Members, in their sole and absolute discretion.

Except as otherwise set forth herein, each Member shall be entitled to obtain from the Company, to the extent permitted by Law, any information that such Member may reasonably request concerning the Company and its Controlled Subsidiaries, subject to Section 18-305(c) of the Act and any limitations on such information rights under applicable Law; provided, however, that this Section 3.07 shall not obligate the Company or the Managing Member to create any information or reports that do not already exist at the time of such request (other than to convert existing information from one medium to another, such as providing a printout of information that is stored in a computer database), except to the extent otherwise provided in Article 9. With respect to any Non-Controlled Entity in which the Company or its Controlled Subsidiaries holds an equity interest, each Member shall be entitled to obtain from the Company such information concerning such Non-Controlled Entity (and any of its Subsidiaries) that the Company or its applicable Controlled Subsidiary shall have

868227.25C-WILSR01A - MSW

received, or be entitled to obtain, from such Non-Controlled Entity, subject, in each case, to any limitations on such information rights under applicable Law and such Non-Controlled Entity’s Organizational Documents.

Such right may be exercised through any agent or employee of such Member designated in writing by it or by an independent public accountant, engineer, attorney, or other consultant so designated, if such Person is subject to a customary confidentiality obligation with the Company obligating such Person to keep such Confidential Information confidential on terms no less favorable in any material respect to the Company than as set forth in Section 3.08 (it being understood that such Member shall be responsible to the Company for any breach of such confidentiality obligation). The Member making the request shall bear the reasonable and documented out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred in any inspection made on such Member’s behalf. The Members agree to reasonably cooperate, and to cause their respective independent public accountants, engineers, attorneys, and consultants to reasonably cooperate, in connection with any such request.

The Company shall cause such Subsidiary, and shall use reasonable best efforts to cause any such Non-Controlled Entity, to use the proceeds from any such loan solely to remedy such Emergency. If any Member disputes the reasonableness of the terms of a loan made by another Member (including the Managing Member) pursuant to this Section 4.05(a), such Dispute shall be resolved in accordance with the dispute resolution mechanism set forth in Article 11.

(b) At any time following the Flip Date, the Managing Member and its Affiliates shall have the option (but not the obligation), without the consent of any other Member, to make (and, upon the exercise by the Managing Member or its Affiliates of such right by written notice to the other Members, the applicable Subsidiary of the Company or Non-Controlled Entity shall accept, and the Company shall cause such Subsidiary, or shall use reasonable best efforts to cause such Non-Controlled Entity, to accept) one or more unsecured loans to one or more of the Company’s Subsidiaries or Non-Controlled Entities in an aggregate principal amount outstanding at any one time not exceeding fifty million dollars ($50,000,000.00) (plus the amount of any related documented and reasonable out-of-pocket costs, fees, or expenses of the Company or the applicable Subsidiary or Non-Controlled Entity) to redeem, repurchase, or otherwise acquire the Tax Equity Interests of any Tax Equity Entity (each such loan, a “Tax Equity Repurchase Loan”); provided that (i) the principal amount of such Tax Equity Repurchase Loans shall not exceed the amount paid to the applicable Tax Equity Investors in connection with the redemption, repurchase, or other acquisition of such Tax Equity Interests (plus the amount of any related documented and reasonable out-of-pocket costs, fees, or expenses of the Company or the applicable Subsidiary or Non-Controlled Entity); (ii) payment on such Tax Equity Repurchase Loans (A) must be subordinated, upon liquidation of the Company, to liquidating distributions to holders of

868227.25C-WILSR01A - MSW

Class B Units until such liquidating distributions to Class B Members shall be in an amount equal to the then-outstanding principal amount and all accrued interest (if any) payable under the Credit Agreement (if any) and all other amounts owing under the Credit Agreement (if any), and (B) shall not, as of the date of the making of such Tax Equity Repurchase Loan, on a pro forma basis, reduce the amount of Available Cash projected to be available for distribution to the Members (“Projected Available Cash”) in any calendar month, as compared to the amount of Projected Available Cash during such month if such redemption, repurchase, or buyout of such Tax Equity Interests had not occurred; and (iii) the terms and conditions of such Tax Equity Repurchase Loans must (A) in the aggregate, be no less favorable to the Company or the applicable Subsidiary or Non-Controlled Entity than those terms generally available from unaffiliated, third-party lenders, and (B) require that any actions or proceedings to enforce the terms of such Tax Equity Repurchase Loans shall require Class B Member Approval, which shall be subject to the Sole Discretion Standard. Upon receipt of such a Tax Equity Repurchase Loan, without the consent of any other Member, such Tax Equity Entity (or the applicable Subsidiary or Non-Controlled Entity) shall redeem, repurchase, or otherwise acquire such Tax Equity Interests on such terms as are no less favorable to the Company or its applicable Subsidiary or Non-Controlled Entity than those applicable under the redemption, repurchase, or buyout rights contained in the applicable Tax Equity Entity’s Organizational Documents, including the Pine Brooke Company LLC Agreement or such other terms as may be reasonably approved by the Managing Member (but subject to the limitations contained in the proviso in the immediately preceding sentence).

(c) No Member shall have the right to make loans to the Company or its Subsidiaries or Non-Controlled Entities other than pursuant to Section 4.05(a) and Section 4.05(b), without the prior written consent of the Managing Member and Class B Member Approval (which consent may be withheld by such holders in their sole discretion).

4.06 No Other Capital Contribution or Loan Obligations. No Member shall be required or permitted to make any Capital Contribution or loan to the Company except pursuant to this Article 4 or as provided in Section 12.02(a)(iv).

4.07 Return of Contributions. Except as expressly provided herein, a Member is not entitled to the return of any part of its Capital Contributions or to be paid interest in respect of either its Capital Account or its Capital Contributions.

(a) Each Member’s Capital Account shall be increased by the amount of money contributed (or deemed to be contributed) by that Member to the Company, the fair market value of property contributed (or deemed to be contributed) by that Member to the Company (net of liabilities secured by such contributed property that the Company is considered to assume or take subject to under Section 752 of the Code), and allocations to that Member of Net Profit (or items thereof) and any items in the nature of income or gain that are specially allocated to such Member pursuant to Section 5.04(b), and shall be decreased by (x) the amount of cash distributed to that Member by the Company, (y) the Book Value of property distributed to that Member by the Company (net of liabilities secured by such distributed property that such Member is considered to assume or take subject to under Section 752 of the Code), and (z) allocations to that Member of Net Losses (or items thereof) or other items in the nature of deductions or losses that are specially allocated to such Member pursuant to Section 5.04(b). A Member who has more than one Membership Interest shall have a single Capital Account that reflects all such Membership Interests, regardless of the class of Membership Interests owned by such Member and regardless of the time or manner in which such Membership Interests were acquired. Upon the Disposition of all or a portion of a Membership Interest, the Capital Account of the Disposing Member that is attributable to such Membership Interest shall carry over to the Assignee in accordance with the provisions of Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(l).

(b) This Section 4.08 is intended to comply with the capital account maintenance provisions of Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv) and will be applied and interpreted in accordance with such Treasury Regulations.

Upon a Dissolution Event, all available proceeds distributable to the Members as determined under Section 12.02 shall be distributed in the following order: (a) first, to each Member pro rata in accordance with the positive balance, if any, of such Member’s Capital Account (determined without regard to the allocations made pursuant to Section 12.02(b)), until each Member has received such positive balance, (b) second, to each Member based upon its respective Unreturned Contribution Percentage until the amount distributed to such Member, together with any amounts distributed pursuant to clause (a) of this Section 5.03, equals the aggregate Unreturned Contribution of such Member; (c) third, to the Class B Members (including, for the avoidance of doubt, NEP Class B Parties), pro rata in accordance with their respective Class B Percentage Interests, until such Class B Members have received distributions that results in an Internal Rate of Return to such Class B Members, together with any amounts distributed pursuant to clause (a) and clause (b) of this Section 5.03, measured from the applicable Acquisition Date to the date of dissolution, of six and three quarters percent (6.75%); and (d) fourth, any and all remaining proceeds after payment of the amounts specified in clauses (a), (b), and (c) of this Section 5.03, to the Class A Members, pro rata in accordance with their respective Class A Percentage Interests.

5.04 Allocations.

(a) For purposes of maintaining the Capital Accounts pursuant to Section 4.08, except as provided in Section 5.04(b) or Section 12.02(b), for each Fiscal Year or other applicable period, including any Distribution Adjustment Period or any Post-Flip Date Distribution Period, the Net Profits and Net Loss of the Company, including each item of income, gain, loss, credit, and deduction, shall be allocated among the Members as follows:

(i) for the period from the Effective Date up to the first Distribution Adjustment Date and, if applicable, for any subsequent period during which Available Cash is required, pursuant to Section 5.01(b) or Section 5.01(c), to be distributed in the same proportions as set forth in Section 5.01(a) (any such period, a “75% Period”), seventy-five percent (75%) in the aggregate to the Class A Members, pro rata in accordance with their respective Class A

868227.25C-WILSR01A - MSW

(iii) Notwithstanding the foregoing clauses (i) and (ii), in connection with a Liquidity Event, the Net Profits or Net Loss of the Company (and, to the extent necessary, individual items of income, gain, loss and deduction) resulting from such Liquidity Event shall be allocated among the Members in accordance with the respective amounts distributed to such Members pursuant to Section 7.09(d) and Section 5.01.

The Managing Member may adopt any reasonable measures, conventions, and assumptions to give effect to the allocations required by this Section 5.04 for any Distribution Adjustment Period or any Post-Flip Date Distribution Period.

(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Section 5.04(a):

(i) Nonrecourse Deductions shall be allocated to the Members in the same proportions as the allocations of Net Profits and Net Loss were made for the Fiscal Year or other applicable period pursuant to Section 5.04(a).

(ii) Member Nonrecourse Deductions attributable to Member Nonrecourse Debt shall be allocated to the Members bearing the Economic Risk of Loss for such Member Nonrecourse Debt as determined under Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-2(b)(4). If more than one Member bears the Economic Risk of Loss for such Member Nonrecourse Debt, the Member Nonrecourse Deductions attributable to such Member Nonrecourse Debt shall be allocated among the Members according to the ratio in which they bear the Economic Risk of Loss. This Section 5.04(b)(ii) is intended to comply with the provisions of Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-2(i) and shall be interpreted consistently therewith.

(iii) Notwithstanding any other provision hereof to the contrary, if there is a net decrease in Minimum Gain for an allocation period (or if there was a net decrease in Minimum Gain for a prior allocation period and the Company did not have sufficient amounts of income and gain during prior periods to allocate among the Members under this Section 5.04(b)(iii)), items of income and gain shall be allocated to each Member in an amount equal to such Member’s share of the net decrease in such Minimum Gain (as determined pursuant to Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-2(g)(2)). This Section 5.04(b)(iii) is intended to constitute a minimum gain chargeback under Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-2(f) and shall be interpreted consistently therewith.

(iv) Notwithstanding any provision hereof to the contrary except Section 5.04(b)(iii) (dealing with Minimum Gain), if there is a net decrease in Member

868227.25C-WILSR01A - MSW

Nonrecourse Debt Minimum Gain for an allocation period (or if there was a net decrease in Member Nonrecourse Debt Minimum Gain for a prior allocation period and the Company did not have sufficient amounts of income and gain during prior periods to allocate among the Members under this Section 5.04(b)(iv)), items of income and gain shall be allocated to each Member in an amount equal to such Member’s share of the net decrease in Member Nonrecourse Debt Minimum Gain (as determined pursuant to Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-2(i)(4)). This Section 5.04(b)(iv) is intended to constitute a partner nonrecourse debt minimum gain chargeback under Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-2(i)(4) and shall be interpreted consistently therewith.

(v) Notwithstanding any provision hereof to the contrary except Section 5.04(b)(i) and Section 5.04(b)(ii), no losses or other items of expense shall be allocated to any Member to the extent that such allocation would cause such Member to have a deficit Capital Account balance (or increase any existing deficit Capital Account balance) at the end of the allocation period in excess of the amount such Member is required to restore pursuant to Section 12.02(a)(iv). All losses and other items expense in excess of the limitation set forth in this Section 5.04(b)(v) shall be allocated to the Members who do not have a deficit Capital Account balances in excess of the amount such Member is required to restore pursuant to Section 12.02(a)(iv) in proportion to their relative positive Capital Accounts but only to the extent that such losses and other items of expense do not cause any such Member to have a deficit Capital Account balance in excess of the amount such Member is required to restore pursuant to Section 12.02(a)(iv).

(vi) If any Member unexpectedly receives any adjustments, allocations or distributions described in Treasury Regulations Sections 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d)(4), (5), or (6) resulting in a Capital Account deficit for such Member in excess of the amount such Member is required to restore pursuant to Section 12.02(a)(iv), items of income and gain will be specially allocated to such Member in any amount and manner sufficient to eliminate, to the extent required by the Treasury Regulations, such Capital Account deficit of the Member as quickly as possible; provided, however, that an allocation pursuant to this Section 5.04(b)(vi) shall be made only if and to the extent that such Member would have a deficit Capital Account balance in excess of the amount such Member is required to restore pursuant to Section 12.02(a)(iv) after all other allocations provided for in this Article 5 have been tentatively made as if this Section 5.04(b)(vi) were not in this Agreement. The items of income or gain to be allocated will be determined in accordance with Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d). This subsection (vi) is intended to comply with Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d) and will be applied and interpreted in accordance with such Treasury Regulations.

(vii) To the extent an adjustment to the adjusted tax basis of any Company asset pursuant to Code Sections 734(b) or 743(b) is required to be taken into account in determining the Capital Accounts of the Members under Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(m), the amount of such adjustment to the Capital Accounts will be treated as an item of gain (if the adjustment increases the basis of the asset) or loss (if the adjustment decreases such basis), and such gain or loss will be specially allocated among the Members in a manner consistent with the manner in which their Capital Accounts are required to be adjusted pursuant to Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(m).

(viii) Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, any and all state Tax credits of the Company that may be claimed with respect to the output of any direct or

868227.25C-WILSR01A - MSW

indirect asset of a Tax Equity Entity or otherwise shall be allocated to, and solely for the account of, NEP Member.

(ix) The allocations set forth in Section 5.04(b)(i) through Section 5.04(b)(viii) (the “Regulatory Allocations”) are intended to comply with certain requirements of Treasury Regulation Sections 1.704-1(b) and 1.704-2. The Regulatory Allocations may not be consistent with the manner in which the Members intend to distribute the cash of the Company or allocate Company income or loss. Accordingly, the Managing Member is hereby authorized to allocate items of income, gain, loss, and deduction to the Members so as to prevent the Regulatory Allocations from distorting the manner in which cash is distributed among the Members. In general, the Members anticipate that this will be accomplished by specially allocating other items of income, gain, loss and deduction to the Members so that, to the extent possible, the net amount of such allocations and the Regulatory Allocations to the Members shall be equal to the net amount that would have been allocated among the Members if the Regulatory Allocations had not occurred. However, the Managing Member shall have discretion to accomplish this result in any reasonable manner, and in exercising this discretion, the Managing Member shall take into account future Regulatory Allocations under Section 5.04(b) that, although not yet made, are likely to offset other Regulatory Allocations previously made thereunder.

(x) Any items of depreciation or amortization deduction resulting from an increase to the adjusted tax basis of any Company asset pursuant to Code Section 734(b), caused by a distribution to a Member taxable under Code Section 731(a), including increases to the adjusted tax basis of assets owned by subsidiary partnerships that collaterally arise as a result of the tiered partnership principles of Rev. Rul. 92-15 or similar guidance (such asset, a “Subject Asset,” and such deductions, “Subject Deductions”), shall be allocated among the Members in accordance with Schedule 5.04; provided that, for all periods beginning after a Distribution Adjustment Date (except any 75% Period), in no event shall any allocation to the NEP Member (or its Affiliates or Permitted Assignees) pursuant to this paragraph (x) exceed the amount of Subject Deductions that would otherwise be allocable to the NEP Member (or its Affiliates or Permitted Assignees) under Section 5.04(a)(ii). Any gain resulting from a sale or other disposition of a Subject Asset shall, to the extent attributable to the Subject Deductions, be allocated in a manner commensurate with the allocation of the Subject Deductions among the applicable Class A Units and Class B Units pursuant to the preceding sentence.

(c) To the maximum extent possible, except as otherwise provided in this Section 5.04(c), all items of Company income, gain, loss, and deduction for federal income Tax purposes shall be allocated among the Members for such purposes in the same manner in which the corresponding items computed for Capital Account purposes are allocated pursuant to Section 5.04(a) and Section 5.04(b). Income, gain, loss, and deduction with respect to property contributed to the Company by a Member or revalued pursuant to clause (b) of the definition of “Book Value” shall be allocated among the Members in a manner that seeks to eliminate, by use of the “remedial method” pursuant to Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-3(d), the variation between the adjusted Tax basis of such property and its Book Value as required by Section 704(c) of the Code and Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-1(b)(4)(i).

5.05 Varying Interests. All items of income, gain, loss, deduction, or credit shall be allocated, and all distributions shall be made, to the Persons shown on the records of the Company to have been Members as of the last day of the period for which the allocation or distribution is to be made. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event a Member Disposes of a Membership Interest during a Fiscal Year, the Net Profits or Net Loss of the Company, and each item of income, gain, loss, credit, and

868227.25C-WILSR01A - MSW

deduction, allocated to such Member and its Assignee for such Fiscal Year or other applicable period will be made between such Member and its Assignee in accordance with Section 706 of the Code using any convention permitted by Section 706 of the Code and selected by the Managing Member.

5.06 Amounts Withheld. The Company is authorized to withhold from payments and distributions to the Members and to pay over to any federal, state, or local Governmental Authority any amounts required to be so withheld pursuant to the Code or any provisions of any other applicable Law and shall allocate such amounts to the Members with respect to which such amounts were withheld. All amounts withheld pursuant to the Code or any provisions of any other applicable Law with respect to any payment, distribution, or allocation to the Company or the Members shall, to the extent properly remitted to the appropriate Governmental Authority, be treated for all purposes under this Agreement as amounts paid or distributed pursuant to this Article 5 to the Members with respect to which such amount was withheld. To the extent operation of the foregoing provisions of this Section 5.06 would create a negative balance in a Member’s Capital Account (or increase the amount by which such Capital Account balance is negative), such Member shall indemnify the other Members and the Company for such withholding.

5.07 Other Payments.

(a) Pre-Effective Date Excess Insurance Proceeds received by the Company or any of its Controlled Subsidiaries shall be paid by the Company or its applicable Controlled Subsidiary to NEP Member promptly following the Company’s or such Controlled Subsidiary’s receipt thereof (and no payment of such Pre-Effective Date Excess Insurance Proceeds shall constitute a distribution pursuant to Section 5.01, Section 5.02, or Section 5.03).

(b) If any Post-Closing Wilmot Adjustment Payment or Wilmot Return Payment (as each such term is defined in the Asset Purchase Agreement) is received by the Company, the amount thereof shall be paid by the Company to NEP Member in accordance with Section 4.03(d) promptly following the Company’s receipt thereof (and the payment of such amount shall not constitute a distribution pursuant to Section 5.01, Section 5.02, or Section 5.03).

(c) Any and all State Tax Credit Payments (if any) shall be paid in immediately available funds to NEP Member promptly following receipt thereof (and the payment of such amounts shall not constitute a distribution pursuant to Section 5.01, Section 5.02, or Section 5.03).

(d) All Golden Plains Tax Equity Proceeds (if any) shall be paid in immediately available funds to NEP Member promptly following receipt thereof by the Company (and the payment of such amounts shall not constitute a distribution pursuant to Section 5.01, Section 5.02, or Section 5.03).

(e) All Golden Plains Tax Credit Insurance Proceeds (if any) shall be paid in immediately available funds to NEP Member promptly following receipt thereof by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries (and the payment of such amounts shall not constitute a distribution pursuant to Section 5.01, Section 5.02, or Section 5.03).

(f) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, any amounts in respect of Subcontractor Delay Liquidated Damages and Network Upgrades received by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries shall be paid by the Company or such Subsidiary to NEP Member promptly following the Company’s or such Subsidiary’s receipt thereof (and the payment of such amounts shall not constitute a distribution pursuant to Section 5.01, Section 5.02, or Section 5.03).

868227.25C-WILSR01A - MSW

5.08 Purchase Price Offset.

(a) If it is determined pursuant to Section 2.16(e) of the Purchase Agreement that there is an Excess Purchase Price Amount, then all distributions payable pursuant to Section 5.01, Section 5.02, or Section 5.03 to NEP Member shall be subject to offset by the Company (the “Class B Purchase Price Return Offset”) by an amount equal to the Excess Purchase Price Amount. The Excess Purchase Price Amount shall be withheld from payment of all such distributions to NEP Member and shall be promptly paid by the Company to the Class B Members on the date of such distribution payment in satisfaction of the payment of such Excess Purchase Price Amount before any distributions on Class A Units are paid to the holders of Class A Units until the aggregate amount withheld from distributions to NEP Member pursuant to this Section 5.08(a) equals the Excess Purchase Price Amount. NEP Member hereby consents to such Class B Purchase Price Return Offset and hereby waives any right to receive any Excess Purchase Price Amount or payment of any distributions subject to such Class B Purchase Price Return Offset. The amounts withheld and paid in accordance with this Section 5.08(a) shall be treated as having been distributed to the Class A Members for all purposes of this Agreement, including the calculation of Capital Accounts under Section 4.08.

(b) If it is determined pursuant to Section 2.16(e) of the Purchase Agreement that there is a Deficit Purchase Price Amount, then all distributions payable pursuant to Section 5.01, Section 5.02, or Section 5.03 to the Class B Members shall be subject to offset by the Company (the “Deficit Class B Purchase Price Offset”) by an amount equal to the Deficit Purchase Price Amount. The Deficit Purchase Price Amount shall be withheld from payment of all such distributions to the Class B Members and shall be promptly paid by the Company to NEP Member on the date of such distribution payment in satisfaction of the payment of such Deficit Purchase Price Amount before any distributions on Class B Units are paid to the holders of Class B Units until the aggregate amount withheld from distributions to Class B Members pursuant to this Section 5.08(b) equals the Deficit Purchase Price Amount; provided that, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 5.08(b), prior to the Credit Agreement Payment in Full, the Deficit Purchase Price Amount shall be paid under priority “Fifth” of Section 2.20(b) of the Credit Agreement, prior to giving effect to any withdrawals and transfers to an Excluded Account (as defined in the Credit Agreement) other than in an amount equal to the “Permitted Tax Distribution Amount” or the “Other Bankruptcy Amount” as specified in the proviso of Section 2.20(b) of the Credit Agreement. The Class B Members hereby consent to such Deficit Class B Purchase Price Offset and hereby waive, subject to the proviso in the immediately preceding sentence, any right to receive any Deficit Purchase Price Amount or payment of any distributions subject to such Deficit Class B Purchase Price Offset. The amounts withheld and paid in accordance with this Section 5.08(b) shall be treated as having been distributed to the Class B Members for all purposes of this Agreement, including the calculation of Capital Accounts under Section 4.08.

The Managing Member may delegate to one or more Persons all or any part of its power and authority as Managing Member hereunder, including, subject to Section 6.03(q) and Section 6.04, pursuant to any management services agreement the Company or its Subsidiaries may enter into with any Affiliate of the Company, except for such power and authority with respect to Major Decisions or other matters expressly requiring a vote by or consent of the Members pursuant to this Agreement, which will be expressly retained by the Members.

6.02 Standard of Care.

(a) Except for those duties expressly set forth in this Agreement, to the fullest extent permitted by Section 18-1101(c) of the Act, no Member (including the Managing Member) shall have any duties or liabilities, including fiduciary duties, to the Company or any other Member, and the provisions of this Agreement, to the extent that they restrict or eliminate the duties and liabilities, including fiduciary duties, of the Managing Member or any other Member otherwise existing at law or in equity, are agreed by the Members to modify, restrict, or eliminate to such extent, such duties and liabilities of the Managing Member and such other Members. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing herein shall eliminate or limit (i) the express contractual provisions set forth herein or (ii) the implied contractual covenant of good faith and fair dealing.

(b) Each Member acknowledges its express intent, and agrees with each other Member for the mutual benefit of all the Members, that, except as expressly set forth in this Agreement:

(i) to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law, no Member (including the Managing Member), in its capacity as Member (or the Managing Member, as applicable), nor any of such Member’s or any of its Affiliates’ respective directors, officers, stockholders, managers, members, partners, Affiliates, employees, or agents shall have any fiduciary duty to the Company, any other Member, or any other Person in connection with the business and affairs of the Company or any consent or approval given or withheld pursuant to this Agreement; provided, however, that nothing herein shall eliminate the implied contractual covenant of good faith and fair dealing; and

(ii) the provisions of this Section 6.02 will apply for the benefit of each Member (including the Managing Member), and, subject to Section 6.02(d), no standard of care, duty, or other legal restriction or theory of liability shall limit or modify the right of any Member to vote in the manner determined by such Member in its sole and absolute discretion, with or without cause, subject to such conditions as it shall deem appropriate, and without taking into account the interests of, and without incurring liability to, the Company, any other Member, or any officer or employee of the Company.

(c) To the maximum extent permitted by applicable Law, but except as expressly set forth in this Agreement, each Member hereby releases and forever discharges each other Member

868227.25C-WILSR01A - MSW

(including the Managing Member) and its Affiliates from all liabilities that such other Member or its Affiliates might owe, under the Act or otherwise, to the Company, the releasing Member, or its Affiliates on the ground that any decision of such other Member (including the Managing Member) to grant or withhold any vote, consent, or approval constituted the breach or violation of any standard of care, any fiduciary duty, or any other legal restriction or theory of liability applicable to such other Member or its Affiliates; provided, however, that nothing herein shall eliminate any Member’s liability for any act or omission that constitutes a bad faith violation of the implied contractual covenant of good faith and fair dealing. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, nothing in this Section 6.02 shall limit or waive any claims against, actions, rights to sue, other remedies, or other recourse of the Company, any Member, or any other Person may have against any Member for a breach of contract claim relating to any binding agreement, including this Agreement.

(d) Notwithstanding the foregoing or any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, whenever the Managing Member makes a determination or takes or declines to take (or causes or permits a Subsidiary of the Company to take or decline to take) any other action, in its capacity as such as opposed to in its individual capacity, then, unless another express standard is provided for in this Agreement, the Managing Member shall make such determination or take or decline to take (or cause or permit a Subsidiary of the Company to take or decline to take) such other action in good faith and shall not be subject to any other or different standards (including fiduciary standards) imposed by this Agreement. A determination or other action or inaction will conclusively be deemed to be in “good faith” for all purposes of this Agreement, if the Managing Member in making such determination or taking or declining to take (or causing or permitting a Subsidiary of the Company to take or decline to take) such other action (i) reasonably believes that the determination or other action or inaction is in the best interests of the Company and its Subsidiaries and (ii) does not take or decline to take (or cause or permit a Subsidiary of the Company to take or decline to take) such action with intent to benefit any other business now owned or hereafter acquired by the Managing Member or any of its Affiliates to the detriment of the Company and its Subsidiaries.

(e) Without limiting the foregoing, the Managing Member shall, and shall carry out its obligations hereunder, in accordance with all Laws and requirements of this Agreement.

(a) To the fullest extent permitted by Law, each Member (including the Managing Member), each present and former officer of the Company, and each present and former Affiliate of a Member, and each of their respective present and former officers, directors, stockholders, partners, members, managers, employees, Affiliates, representatives, and agents, and their respective successors, heirs, and legal and personal representatives (each, a “Covered Person”) shall have no liability to the Company, any Member, or any other Person and is hereby exculpated from any liability arising out of or relating to the Company, its business, assets, properties, Subsidiaries, Non-Controlled Entities, or liabilities or any act or omission performed or omitted by such Covered Person in relation thereto; provided, however, that the foregoing shall not eliminate any Covered Person from liability resulting from fraud, gross negligence, or the willful misconduct of such Covered Person, a breach of the express provisions of this Agreement, or a bad faith breach of the implied contractual covenant of good faith and fair dealing. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this Section 6.08 shall be deemed to impose fiduciary duties on any Member (including the Managing Member) or otherwise modify or limit the standard of care set forth in Section 6.02.

(b) To the fullest extent permitted by Law, the Company shall indemnify and hold harmless each Covered Person from and against any and all Claims in which such Covered Person may be involved, or threatened to be involved, as a party or otherwise, arising out of or relating to the Company, its business, assets, properties, Subsidiaries, Non-Controlled Entities, or liabilities or any act or omission performed or omitted by such Covered Person in relation thereto; provided, however, that no Covered Person shall be entitled to indemnification under this Section 6.08(b) with respect to any Claim to the extent (i) resulting from fraud, gross negligence, or the willful misconduct of such Covered Person, a breach of the express provisions of this Agreement, or a bad faith breach of the implied contractual covenant of good faith and fair dealing or (ii) initiated by such Covered Person unless such Claim (or part thereof) (A) was brought to enforce such Person’s rights to indemnification hereunder or (B) was authorized or consented to by the Managing Member in connection with Claims brought against such Covered Person by Persons that are not the Company (or any of its Subsidiaries) or Affiliates of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries. Expenses incurred by a Covered Person in defending any Claim shall be paid by or on behalf of the Company in advance of the final disposition of such Claim upon receipt by the Company of an undertaking by or on behalf of such Covered Person to repay such amount

868227.25C-WILSR01A - MSW

if it shall be ultimately determined that such Covered Person is not entitled to be indemnified by the Company as authorized by this Section 6.08(b).

(c) The Company acknowledges and agrees that the obligation of the Company under this Agreement to indemnify or advance expenses to any Covered Person for the matters covered hereby shall be the primary source of indemnification and advancement for such Covered Person in connection therewith, and any obligation on the part of any other indemnitor under any other agreement to indemnity or advance expenses to such Covered Person shall be secondary to the Company’s obligation and shall be reduced by any amount that such Covered Person may collect as indemnification or advancement from the Company. Subject to the foregoing, the Company shall be subrogated to the rights of such Covered Person against, and shall be entitled to seek contribution from, any third party, including any insurance company, that is not an Affiliate of any Member (or any insurance policy covering such Member or its Affiliates) to recover the amount of such indemnification (or such portion thereof as to which the Company shall be entitled to contribution) after the Covered Person shall have been fully and completely indemnified (whether pursuant to this Agreement or otherwise) in respect of the Claim which gave rise to such indemnification. Any such Covered Person shall fully cooperate with the Company, at the Company’s expense, in its efforts to enforce against any such third party the rights to which it is so subrogated.

(d) The Company, as an indemnifying party from time to time, agrees that, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law, its obligation to indemnify Covered Persons under this Agreement shall apply to any amounts expended by any other indemnitor under any other agreement in respect of indemnification or advancement of expenses to any Covered Person in connection with any Claims to the extent such amounts extended by such other indemnitor are on account of any unpaid indemnity amounts hereunder.

(e) The right of any Covered Person to the indemnification provided herein is cumulative of, and in addition to, any and all rights to which such Covered Person may otherwise be entitled by contract or as a matter of Law or equity, and extend to such Covered Person’s successors, assigns, and legal representatives.

(f) If this Section 6.08 or any portion hereof shall be invalidated on any ground by any court of competent jurisdiction or properly constituted arbitration panel, then the Company shall nonetheless, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law, indemnify and hold harmless each Person entitled to be indemnified pursuant to this Section 6.08 as to liabilities to the full extent permitted by any applicable portion of this Section 6.08 that shall not have been invalidated.

(v) NEP Member may, in its sole discretion, assign to NEP or any Affiliate of NEP its right to offer to purchase the Class B Units of any Class B Member pursuant to this Section 7.01(c).

(vi) No Class B Unit acquired by NEP Member (or its assignee) pursuant to this Section 7.01(c) shall be subject to the limitation on amounts distributable to NEP Class B Parties pursuant to Section 5.01(d), and each such Class B Unit shall be eligible to receive distributions pursuant to Section 5.01(d), without regard to such limitation.

(d) If, at any time on or after the Flip Date, NEP Member or any of its Affiliates proposes to Dispose of all or any portion of the Class B Units then held by NEP Member and its Affiliates (any such Disposition, a “Tag-Along Sale”), then NEP Member shall, at least ten (10) Business Days prior to the consummation of any such proposed Disposition, furnish a written notice (the “Tag-Along Notice”) to Investor, which Tag-Along Notice shall specify (w) the number of Class B Units proposed to be sold in the Tag-Along Sale, (x) the aggregate purchase price proposed to be paid in the Tag-Along Sale and the form of consideration in which the purchase price will be paid, (y) the

868227.25C-WILSR01A - MSW

identity of the proposed purchaser, and (z) any other material terms offered by such purchaser. Investor shall have seven (7) Business Days following receipt of the Tag-Along Notice to deliver written notice to NEP Member indicating whether Investor wishes to include in the proposed Tag-Along Sale all of the Class B Units then held by Investor and its Affiliates, subject to Section 7.01(d)(iii).

(i) If Investor exercises its rights under this Section 7.01(d), Investor shall agree to make the same representations, warranties, covenants, indemnities, and agreements in connection with a Tag-Along Sale as NEP Member and its Affiliates; provided that (A) Investor shall not be required to make any representations or warranties about the business of the Company or its Subsidiaries or Non-Controlled Entities; (B) Investor shall not be liable for the inaccuracy of any representation or warranty or the breach of any covenant made with respect to NEP Member or any of its Affiliates and their ownership of Class B Units; and (C) any liability relating to representations, warranties, or covenants (and related indemnities) and other indemnification obligations entered into in connection with the Tag-Along Sale shall be shared by Investor and NEP Member pro rata based on their respective gross proceeds to be received in respect of Class B Units Disposed of in the Tag-Along Sale (except with respect to representations and warranties or covenants or indemnities as to any specific holder of Class B Units, for which only such holder shall be responsible) and in any event shall not exceed the total proceeds actually received by Investor as consideration for its Class B Units in such Tag-Along Sale. Each of Investor and NEP Member will be responsible for its pro rata share of the third party, out-of-pocket costs incurred in connection with the proposed Tag-Along Sale (based on the gross proceeds received by it in respect of Class B Units Disposed of in the Tag-Along Sale).

(ii) If Investor exercises its rights under this Section 7.01(d), (A) then the closing of the Disposition of Investor’s Class B Units shall take place concurrently with the closing of the Disposition of NEP Member’s Class B Units (subject to receipt of any Governmental Authorizations required to be obtained by or with respect to Investor or any of its Affiliates); and (B) Investor shall use reasonable best efforts to secure any Governmental Authorization required to be obtained by or with respect to Investor or any of its Affiliates and shall provide any information that may be needed from Investor in connection therewith, to comply as soon as reasonably practicable with all applicable Laws, and to take all such other actions and to execute such additional documents as are necessary or appropriate in order to consummate the sale of Investor’s Class B Units in conjunction with the Tag-Along Sale, free and clear of all Encumbrances (other than those created by this Agreement and applicable securities Laws); provided that the closing of the Disposition of NEP Member’s Class B Units in any Tag-Along Sale shall not be delayed because of Investor’s inability to consummate the Disposition of its Class B Units as a result of any failure of Investor, prior to the closing of such Disposition of NEP Member’s Class B Units, to secure any Governmental Authorization required to be obtained by or with respect to Investor or any of its Affiliates or to cause the release of all Encumbrances (other than those created by this Agreement and applicable securities Laws) on Investor’s Class B Units to be Disposed of in the such Tag-Along Sale or otherwise.

(iii) If the proposed purchaser elects to purchase an aggregate number of Class B Units that is less than (A) the number of Class B Units as originally agreed with NEP Member plus (B) all Class B Units held by Investor and its Affiliates, then the number of Class B Units to be sold by NEP Member and Investor and its Affiliates shall be reduced pro rata (based upon the relative number of Class B Units each of NEP Member and its Affiliates, on the one hand, and Investor on the other hand, proposes to sell in such Tag-Along Sale) to such aggregate number. In the event that Investor fails to timely exercise its rights to participate in a Tag-Along

868227.25C-WILSR01A - MSW

Sale pursuant to this Section 7.01(d), NEP Member and its Affiliates shall have ninety (90) days from the date of the Tag-Along Notice to consummate the transaction on terms no more favorable to NEP Member than those set forth in the Tag-Along Notice without being required to provide an additional Tag-Along Notice to Investor. Any Class B Units not sold by NEP Member or its Affiliates within such period of ninety (90) days shall continue to be subject to the requirements of this Section 7.01(d).

(iv) Investor hereby agrees that, in connection with the consummation of any Tag-Along Sale, Investor shall use all cash and all Cash Equivalents received pursuant to this Section 7.01(d) (net of any deductions or withholdings required under applicable Law) and all other cash on hand and all Cash Equivalents of Investor, to repay all of Investor’s then outstanding Indebtedness required to be repaid under the Credit Agreement (including any breakage costs, termination fees, or other payments that would be due or payable thereunder) and all other Indebtedness pursuant to which the Class B Units being acquired pursuant to this Section 7.01(d) are Encumbered, plus the amounts required to be paid by Investor constituting amounts owed by Investor as termination payments and unpaid amounts under any swap, cap, forward, future, or other derivative transaction entered into in connection with the hedging of interest rates under the Credit Agreement.

(e) NEP Member may pay any Call Option Purchase Price, at its option (subject to Section 7.02(d) above), in either cash, Non-Voting NEP Common Units (or, if requested pursuant to Section 7.02(b), NEP Common Units), or a combination of cash and Non-Voting NEP Common Units (or, if requested pursuant to Section 7.02(b), NEP Common Units).

(f) Any NEP Common Units or Non-Voting NEP Common Units to be issued as payment of (or partial payment of) any Call Option Purchase Price will be issued at a price (the “Issuance Price”) specified in the applicable Call Option Notice, which Issuance Price shall be the lesser of (i) the 10-day VWAP on the date of the Call Option Notice and (ii) the listed price of a NEP Common Unit as of the end of trading on the date of the Call Option Notice.

(g) On each Call Option Closing Date, (i) the Class B Members will convey all right, title, and interest in and to the applicable Class B Units, free of all Encumbrances (other than those created by this Agreement or securities Laws), to NEP Member or its nominee; (ii) NEP Member or its nominee will pay the cash portion of the Call Option Purchase Price to the Class B Members (or their nominee(s)) by wire transfer of immediately available funds; and (iii) NEP shall satisfy the remaining portion of the Call Option Purchase Price by issuing Non-Voting NEP Common Units (or, if requested pursuant to Section 7.02(b), NEP Common Units) to the Class B Members, and, in connection therewith, NEP shall instruct, and shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause, its Transfer Agent to record the issuance of such NEP Common Units or Non-Voting NEP Common Units, as the case may be, to such Class B Members (or their nominee(s)). No fractional NEP Common Units or Non-Voting NEP Common Units, as the case may be, will be issued. The Members agree that each Call Option Closing shall be subject to the receipt of all applicable Required Governmental Authorizations. In the event any such Required Governmental Authorizations shall not have been obtained by the date that is otherwise scheduled to be the Call Option Closing Date, then such Call Option Closing Date shall automatically be delayed until such date as all such Required Governmental Authorizations have been obtained and, for the avoidance of doubt, the Call Option Purchase Price set forth in the Call Option Notice shall be calculated from the applicable Acquisition Date of the Class B Units to be purchased until the date of the actual Call Option Closing.

(h) Each Class B Member hereby agrees that, in connection with each Call Option Closing, such Class B Member (or its Affiliates) shall use reasonable best efforts to obtain Qualifying Financing in an amount sufficient, together with any Call Option Cash Consideration and all other cash on hand and all Cash Equivalents of the Class B Member, to repay, a portion of such Class B Member’s then outstanding Indebtedness under the Credit Agreement (including any breakage costs, termination fees, or other payments that would be due or payable thereunder) and all other Indebtedness required to be repaid as a result of the exercise of such Call Option, in each case, pursuant to which the Class B Units being acquired pursuant to the exercise of such Call Option are Encumbered (other than Indebtedness incurred pursuant to such Qualifying Financing (which, for the avoidance of doubt, shall not be secured by Encumbrances on any Class B Units)) in an aggregate amount equal to not less than forty percent (40%) of the applicable Call Option Purchase Price. To the extent that the net proceeds from the Qualifying Financing, together with any Call Option Cash Consideration (net of any deductions or withholdings therefrom pursuant to Section 7.02(n)) and any other cash on hand and Cash Equivalents of the applicable Class B Member, are insufficient to repay in full all Indebtedness of such

868227.25C-WILSR01A - MSW

Class B Member and any other Indebtedness pursuant to which such Class B Units are Encumbered that is required to be repaid as a result of the exercise of such Call Option, plus the amounts required to be paid by such Class B Member constituting amounts owed by such Class B Member as termination payments and unpaid amounts under any swap, cap, forward, future, or other derivative transaction entered into in connection with the hedging of interest rates under the Credit Agreement, and minus amounts required to be paid to such Class B Member constituting amounts owed by the counterparty under any such swap, cap, forward, future, or other derivative transaction as termination payments and unpaid amounts under any such swap, cap, forward, future, or other derivative transaction (such deficiency, a “Call Option Cash Shortfall”), then such Class B Member shall use reasonable best efforts to remedy such Call Option Cash Shortfall as promptly as practicable by obtaining Qualifying Financing (or additional Qualifying Financing) in an amount required to remedy the Call Option Cash Shortfall. The Members agree that, until the Credit Agreement Payment in Full, each Call Option Closing shall be subject to there being (y) no Call Option Cash Shortfall and (z) no Event of Default (as defined in the Credit Agreement) that has occurred and is continuing under the Credit Agreement as of such Call Option Closing Date (it being agreed that, upon any such Event of Default, the Class B Member Representative shall promptly deliver to NEP Member a written notice thereof). If there is a Call Option Cash Shortfall and the applicable Class B Members are unable, using reasonable best efforts, to secure Qualifying Financing or to refinance the existing Qualifying Financing with another Qualifying Financing, to remedy the Call Option Cash Shortfall by the Call Option Closing Date set forth in the applicable Call Option Notice, then the applicable Call Option Closing shall automatically be delayed for a period of at least five (5) Business Days to allow the Class B Members to remedy the Call Option Cash Shortfall or until there is otherwise no longer a Call Option Cash Shortfall associated with the exercise of such Call Option; provided, however, that at the applicable Call Option Closing (if any) following the end of such delay of five (5) Business Days, (i) the Call Option Purchase Price shall be calculated from the applicable Acquisition Date of the Class B Units to be purchased to the date on which such Call Option Closing actually occurs, and (ii) the Issuance Price of the NEP Common Units and Non-Voting NEP Common Units, if any, to be issued as payment (or partial payment) of the applicable Call Option Purchase Price shall be the price set forth in the original Call Option Notice. If NEP Member and the applicable Class B Members elect to delay the Call Option Closing for more than ten (10) Business Days in connection with the preceding sentence, then NEP Member and such Class B Members shall cooperate in good faith to remedy the applicable Call Option Cash Shortfall (provided that the foregoing shall not require the Class B Members to take any actions to remedy such Call Option Cash Shortfall other than seeking Qualifying Financing in accordance with this Section 7.02(h); provided, further, that the foregoing shall not require NEP or NEP Member to take any actions to remedy such Call Option Cash Shortfall other than such cooperation with the Class B Members). If NEP Member and the Class B Members are unable to remedy the applicable Call Option Cash Shortfall within twenty (20) Business Days thereafter, then the applicable Call Option Notice shall be deemed revoked. If the Class B Members are able to obtain Qualifying Financing in an amount sufficient to remedy the Call Option Cash Shortfall prior to any such revocation, then (1) the Class B Member Representative shall promptly deliver written notice thereof to NEP Member, and (2) the applicable Call Option Closing shall occur as promptly thereafter as practicable.

(i) Following consummation of the Call Option pursuant to which all of a Class B Member’s Class B Units are acquired by NEP Member (or its nominee), the Managing Member will amend this Agreement to reflect the withdrawal of such Class B Member and the transfer of the Class B Units effective as of the applicable Call Option Closing.

(j) If, in the exercise of any Call Option, (i) the Class B Member Representative has delivered written notice to NEP Member pursuant to Section 7.02(n) that it does not wish for NEP Member (or its nominee) to purchase all of the issued and outstanding Blocker Interests of a Blocker and

868227.25C-WILSR01A - MSW

(ii) the number of Class B Units to be purchased is less than all of the outstanding Class B Units and there are multiple holders of such Class B Units, then the Class B Units so purchased will be acquired pro rata from the Class B Members (other than NEP Member and its Affiliates, if they hold Class B Units) based on the number of such Class B Units held.

(k) Each Member agrees to cooperate fully with the Company, the Managing Member, and NEP to effect the Call Option Closing, including using its reasonable best efforts to obtain all applicable Governmental Authorizations, terminating and releasing all Encumbrances on the Class B Units (other than those created by this Agreement or securities Laws), and entering into any agreements and instruments and executing any certificates or other documents the Managing Member reasonably deems necessary or appropriate to consummate the Disposition of the Class B Units. The Class B Members and NEP agree to use commercially reasonable efforts to coordinate with the Transfer Agent to record the issuance of NEP Common Units and Non-Voting NEP Common Units, as the case may be, to such Class B Members (or their nominee(s)). Investor agrees that it shall use reasonable best efforts to (i) cause the Call Option Closing to occur as promptly as practicable (it being agreed that Investor shall not be required to seek any additional capital contributions from its equity holders or Affiliates or any other financing other than Qualifying Financing in accordance with this Section 7.02), (ii) keep NEP Member reasonably informed of developments in Investor’s efforts to obtain Qualifying Financing, and (iii) set a Call Option Closing Date mutually agreed upon by NEP Member.

(l) Until the Credit Agreement Payment in Full, the Class B Members agree that they shall not incur Indebtedness, under the Credit Agreement or otherwise, in excess of the amount of Indebtedness borrowed under the Credit Agreement on the Effective Date, plus the amount of Indebtedness subsequently incurred under the Credit Agreement pursuant to the terms of the Credit Agreement as in effect on the date hereof or (provided that the aggregate amount of all Indebtedness of the Class B Members under the Credit Agreement following the effectiveness of any such changes in terms shall not exceed the Maximum Amount immediately prior to such changes) on terms not less favorable to the Class A Members, plus amounts under any swap, cap, forward, future, or other derivative transactions of the nature described in Section 7.02(h), plus $1,000,000.00. The Class B Members further agree that they shall not take any actions or omit to take any actions which result in Encumbrances on the Class B Units securing Indebtedness in an aggregate amount in excess of $1,000,000.00, other than Encumbrances that secure the obligations of the Class B Members under the Credit Agreement or any related loan documents and under any swap, cap, forward, future, or other derivative transactions of the nature described in Section 7.02(h).

(m) NEP Member or its nominee shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from each Call Option Purchase Price the amounts each NEP Member or its nominee is required to deduct and withhold under any applicable Law, and amounts so withheld and properly remitted to the appropriate Governmental Authority shall be deemed paid for all purposes of this Agreement to the Person with respect to which such amount was withheld; provided that any such amounts shall be specified by the NEP Member in the applicable Call Option Notice; provided, further, that if, on the Call Option Closing Date, the Class B Members deliver to the NEP Member or its nominee withholding certificates pursuant to Treasury Regulations Section 1.1445-2(b)(2) and, in the case of a sale of the Class B Units, IRS Notice 2018-29, that the Class B Member (or if such entity is a disregarded entity, its regarded owner) is not a non-U.S. person, the NEP Member or its nominee shall not withhold any amounts under Section 1445 or Section 1446(f) of the Code unless there is a change in applicable Law prior to the Call Option Closing Date that requires such withholding.

(n) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Section 7.02(a), with respect to any and all Class B Units to be purchased pursuant to a Call Option that are held directly or indirectly by

868227.25C-WILSR01A - MSW

any Blocker, so long as (i) Investor Fund or any of its Affiliates Controls the Blocker Parent of such Blocker; (ii) immediately before the applicable Call Option Closing (after giving effect to the transactions contemplated by the Blocker Purchase Agreement), the only assets of the applicable Blocker (other than cash or current tax assets) are Class B Units; (iii) the applicable Blocker has engaged in no business activities other than its organizational activities, acquiring, financing, accepting, owning, and holding, directly or indirectly, Class B Units, and activities incidental thereto; and (iv) on the applicable Call Option Closing Date, the applicable Blocker has no liabilities other than immaterial liabilities incurred in connection with the foregoing activities in the ordinary course of business, then, unless the Class B Member Representative provides written notice to NEP Member within five (5) days of receipt of such Call Option Notice that it does not wish for NEP Member (or its nominee) to purchase all of the issued and outstanding equity interests of such Blocker (collectively, the “Blocker Interests”) pursuant to the exercise of such Call Option, NEP Member (or its nominee) shall be required to purchase, and Blocker Parent shall be required to sell, all of the Blocker Interests of the applicable Blocker that holds, directly or indirectly, the applicable Class B Units to be purchased pursuant to such Call Option, rather than a direct purchase of the outstanding Class B Units held (directly or indirectly) by such Blocker, on the same terms and subject to the same conditions as set forth herein for the purchase of Class B Units pursuant to the Call Option (except that equitable adjustments shall be made to the Call Option Purchase Price to account for any liabilities of the Blocker permitted by clause (iii) and clause (iv) above), in each case, subject to the terms and conditions of the Blocker Purchase Agreement, and Investor and Blocker Parent shall indemnify and hold harmless NEP Member and its Affiliates in accordance with the terms of such Blocker Purchase Agreement. In connection therewith, Blocker Parent will convey all right, title, and interest in and to the applicable Blocker Interests (and indirectly the Class B Units held by such Blocker), free and clear of all Encumbrances (other than restrictions on transfer created by this Agreement or applicable securities Laws), to NEP Member or its nominee. Unless the Class B Member Representative exercises the option not to have Blocker Interests purchased as set forth in this Section 7.02(n), references elsewhere in this Section 7.02 to Class B Units or to a Class B Member selling Class B Units shall be to the applicable Blocker Interests and Blocker Parent, respectively, and the other terms of this Section 7.02 shall apply mutatis mutandis, and the parties hereto will take all actions necessary to effect the Call Option Closing as the purchase of Blocker Interests rather than the purchase of Class B Units.

7.03 Change of Control of NEP.

(a) If, at any time, there is an announcement of a proposed Change of Control of NEP (or the entry into any agreement providing therefor), then, commencing on the date of such announcement of a proposed Change of Control of NEP or such entry into such agreement and ending on the date that is thirty (30) calendar days after the consummation of such Change of Control of NEP, each Class B Member shall have the right, but not the obligation, to require NEP Member to acquire all or any portion of the Class B Units held by such Class B Member at a purchase price for each Class B Unit for which such election is made that is the greater of (i) an amount that results in a return to such Class B Member of at least an Internal Rate of Return on each such Class B Unit purchased pursuant to this Section 7.03, measured from the applicable Acquisition Date to the Change of Control Closing Date, of seven and three quarters percent (7.75%) or (ii) an amount that, together with the aggregate amount of distributions received by such Member in respect of such Class B Units, provides a return of (A) 140% of such Class B Member’s aggregate Capital Contributions in respect of such Class B Units, if the Change of Control occurs on or prior to the sixth (6th) anniversary of the Effective Date, or (B) 160% of such Class B Member’s aggregate Capital Contributions in respect of such Class B Units, if the Change of Control occurs after the sixth (6th) anniversary of the Effective Date, in each case of clause (A) and clause (B), measured from the date on which any applicable Capital Contribution is made to the Company to the Change of Control Closing Date (such greater amount, the “Change of Control

868227.25C-WILSR01A - MSW

Purchase Price”), upon the terms and conditions set forth in this Section 7.03 (the “NEP Change of Control Option”). NEP Member may not assign its obligation to purchase such Class B Units pursuant to this Section 7.03 to any Person other than NEP or a Subsidiary thereof.

(b) To exercise its rights pursuant to Section 7.03(a), a Class B Member shall deliver to NEP Member written notice executed by such Class B Member of such exercise (the “Change of Control Notice”) containing (i) the date on which the acquisition of the Class B Units identified in the Change of Control Notice (the “Change of Control Closing”) is to be consummated (such date, the “Change of Control Closing Date”), and (ii) the number of Class B Units to be purchased and the Change of Control Purchase Price per Class B Unit. NEP Member may pay the Change of Control Purchase Price, at its option, in either cash, Non-Voting NEP Common Units (or NEP Common Units if the holder of Class B Units to be purchased requests in writing, not less than three (3) Business Days prior to the applicable Change of Control Closing Date, the issuance of NEP Common Units), or a combination of cash and Non-Voting NEP Common Units (or NEP Common Units if the holder of Class B Units to be purchased requests in writing, not less than three (3) Business Days prior to the applicable Change of Control Closing Date, the issuance of NEP Common Units); provided, however, that NEP may issue a security that is substantially equivalent to the NEP Common Units in terms of rights, preferences and privileges, including with respect to economics, governance, transferability and liquidity, if, as a result of the Change of Control of NEP, NEP will cease to exist or the NEP Common Units will cease to be listed on a National Securities Exchange. If some or all of the Change of Control Purchase Price consists of NEP Common Units or Non-Voting NEP Common Units, the Issuance Price for each such NEP Common Unit or Non-Voting NEP Common Unit will be specified as the 10-day VWAP of the NEP Common Units on the date of the announcement of the proposed Change of Control of NEP. The Change of Control Notice shall be delivered to NEP Member at least seven (7) Business Days and no more than ten (10) Business Days in advance of the Change of Control Closing Date.

(c) On the Change of Control Closing Date, (i) each Class B Member exercising the NEP Change of Control Option will convey the Class B Units identified in the applicable Change of Control Notice, free of all Encumbrances (other than those created by this Agreement or securities Laws), to NEP Member or its nominee; (ii) NEP Member or its nominee (or, if the foregoing do not pay, NEP) will pay the cash portion, if any, of the Change of Control Purchase Price to such Class B Member (or its nominee(s)) by wire transfer of immediately available funds; and (iii) NEP shall satisfy the remaining portion, if any, of the Change of Control Purchase Price by issuing NEP Common Units, Non-Voting NEP Common Units, or a substantially equivalent security, as determined pursuant to Section 7.03(b), to such Class B Member no later than three (3) Business Days after the Change of Control Closing Date, and, in connection therewith, NEP shall instruct, and shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause, its Transfer Agent to record the issuance of such NEP Common Units or Non-Voting NEP Common Units, as the case may be, to such Class B Member (or its nominee(s)). No fractional NEP Common Units or Non-Voting NEP Common Units, as the case may be, will be issued. The Members agree that the Change of Control Closing shall be subject to the receipt of all applicable Required Governmental Authorizations. In the event any such Required Governmental Authorizations shall not have been obtained by the date that is otherwise scheduled to be the Change of Control Closing Date, then such Change of Control Closing Date shall automatically be delayed until such date as all such Required Governmental Authorizations have been obtained and, for the avoidance of doubt, the Change of Control Purchase Price set forth in the Change of Control Notice shall be calculated from the applicable Acquisition Date of the Class B Units to be purchased until such date of the actual Change of Control Closing.

(d) Each Class B Member hereby agrees that, in connection with the Change of Control Closing, such Class B Member (or its Affiliates) shall use any cash portion of the Change of

868227.25C-WILSR01A - MSW

Control Purchase Price and all cash on hand and all Cash Equivalents of such Class B Member to repay all of such Class B Member’s then outstanding Indebtedness under the Credit Agreement (including any breakage costs, termination fees, or other payments that would be due or payable thereunder) and all other Indebtedness required to be repaid as a result of the exercise of such NEP Change of Control Option, in each case, pursuant to which the Class B Units being acquired pursuant to the exercise of such NEP Change of Control Option are Encumbered (other than Indebtedness incurred pursuant to a Qualifying Financing (which, for the avoidance of doubt, shall not be secured by Encumbrances on any Class B Units)). To the extent that the cash portion (if any) of the Change of Control Purchase Price (net of any deductions or withholdings required under applicable Law), and all cash on hand and all Cash Equivalents of the applicable Class B Member are insufficient to repay in full all Indebtedness of such Class B Member and any other Indebtedness pursuant to which such Class B Units are Encumbered that is required to be repaid as a result of the exercise of such NEP Change of Control Option, plus the amounts required to be paid by such Class B Member constituting amounts owed by such Class B Member as termination payments and unpaid amounts under any swap, cap, forward, future, or other derivative transaction entered into in connection with the hedging of interest rates under the Credit Agreement, and minus amounts required to be paid to such Class B Member constituting amounts owed by the counterparty under any such swap, cap, forward, future, or other derivative transaction as termination payments and unpaid amounts under any such swap, cap, forward, future, or other derivative transaction (such deficiency, a “Change of Control Cash Shortfall”), then such Class B Member shall use reasonable best efforts to remedy such Change of Control Cash Shortfall as promptly as practicable by obtaining Qualifying Financing in an amount required to remedy the Change of Control Cash Shortfall. The Members agree that, until the Credit Agreement Payment in Full, each Change of Control Closing shall be subject to there being no Change of Control Cash Shortfall. If there is a Change of Control Cash Shortfall and the applicable Class B Members are unable, using reasonable best efforts, to secure Qualifying Financing or to refinance the existing Qualifying Financing with another Qualifying Financing by such Change of Control Closing Date, then the applicable Change of Control Closing shall automatically be delayed for a period of at least five (5) Business Days to allow the Class B Members to remedy the Change of Control Cash Shortfall or until there is otherwise no longer a Change of Control Cash Shortfall associated with the exercise of such NEP Change of Control Option. If NEP Member and the applicable Class B Members elect to delay the Change of Control Closing for more than ten (10) Business Days in connection with the preceding sentence, then NEP Member and such Class B Members shall cooperate in good faith to remedy the applicable Change of Control Cash Shortfall prior to the applicable Change of Control Closing Date (provided that the foregoing shall not require the Class B Members to take any actions to remedy such Change of Control Cash Shortfall other than seeking Qualifying Financing in accordance with this Section 7.03(d); provided, further, that the foregoing shall not require NEP or NEP Member to take any actions to remedy such Change of Control Cash Shortfall other than such cooperation with such Class B Members). If the Class B Members are unable to remedy the applicable Change of Control Cash Shortfall within twenty (20) Business Days thereafter, then the applicable Change of Control Notice shall be deemed revoked; provided, however, that, if the Class B Member Representative notifies NEP Member in writing that the Class B Members are continuing to use reasonable best efforts to obtain Qualifying Financing to remedy the applicable Change of Control Cash Shortfall, the applicable Change of Control Closing shall automatically be delayed for an additional period of ninety (90) days; provided, further, that (i) the Class B Member Representative may revoke the applicable Change of Control Notice at any time during such period of ninety (90) days prior to the applicable Change of Control Closing and (ii) the applicable Change of Control Notice shall be deemed revoked if such Change of Control Closing shall not have occurred prior to the expiration of such period of ninety (90) days (or sooner if the Class B Member Representative shall have sent a written notice of revocation to the NEP Member). If the applicable Class B Members are able to obtain Qualifying Financing in an amount equal to or greater than the Change of Control Cash Shortfall, then (1) the Class B Member Representative shall promptly deliver written notice thereof to NEP Member, (2) the Change

868227.25C-WILSR01A - MSW

of Control Closing shall occur as promptly thereafter as practicable, (3) the Change of Control Purchase Price shall be calculated from the applicable Acquisition Date of the Class B Units to be purchased to the date on which such Change of Control Closing actually occurs, and (4) the Issuance Price of the NEP Common Units and Non-Voting NEP Common Units, if any, to be issued as payment (or partial payment) of the applicable Change of Control Purchase Price shall be the price set forth in the original Change of Control Notice.

(e) Following consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Section 7.03, to the extent a Class B Member has Disposed of all of its Class B Units, the Managing Member will amend this Agreement to reflect the withdrawal of such Class B Member and the transfer of such Class B Units effective as of the Change of Control Closing.

(f) Each Member agrees to cooperate fully with the Company, the Managing Member, and NEP to effect the Change of Control Closing as reasonably requested, including using its reasonable best efforts to obtain all applicable Governmental Authorizations, terminating and releasing all Encumbrances on the Class B Units (other than those created by this Agreement or securities Laws), and entering into any agreements and instruments and executing any certificates or other documents the Managing Member reasonably deems necessary or appropriate to consummate the Disposition of the Class B Units (provided that the foregoing shall not require Investor to take any actions to remedy any Change of Control Cash Shortfall other seeking Qualifying Financing in accordance with Section 7.03(d)). Investor agrees that it shall use reasonable best efforts to (i) cause the Change of Control Closing to occur as promptly as practicable, (ii) keep NEP Member reasonably informed of developments in Investor’s efforts to obtain Qualifying Financing, and (iii) set a Change of Control Closing Date mutually agreed upon by NEP Member. The Class B Members and NEP agree to use commercially reasonable efforts to coordinate with the Transfer Agent to record the issuance of NEP Common Units and Non-Voting NEP Common Units, as the case may be, to such Class B Members (or their nominee(s)).

(g) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Section 7.03(a), with respect to any and all Class B Units held directly or indirectly by one or more Blockers, so long as (i) Investor Fund or any of its Affiliates Controls the Blocker Parent of such Blocker; (ii) immediately before the Change of Control Closing (after giving effect to the transactions contemplated by the Blocker Purchase Agreement), the only assets of the applicable Blocker (other than cash or current tax assets) are Class B Units; (iii) the applicable Blocker has engaged in no business activities other than its organizational activities, acquiring, financing, accepting, owning, and holding, directly or indirectly, Class B Units, and activities incidental thereto and (iv) on the applicable Change of Control Closing Date, the applicable Blocker has no liabilities other than immaterial liabilities incurred in connection with the foregoing activities in the ordinary course of business, then, unless the Class B Member Representative provides written notice to NEP Member within five (5) days of receipt of such Change of Control Notice that it does not wish for NEP Member (or its nominee) to purchase all of the issued and outstanding Blocker Interests of such Blocker pursuant to the exercise of such NEP Change of Control Option, NEP Member (or its nominee) shall be required to purchase, and Blocker Parent shall be required to sell, all of the Blocker Interests of the applicable Blocker that holds, directly or indirectly, Class B Units rather than a direct purchase of the outstanding Class B Units held (directly or indirectly) by such Blocker, on the same terms and subject to the same conditions as set forth herein for the purchase of Class B Units pursuant to the NEP Change of Control Option (except that equitable adjustments shall be made to the Change of Control Purchase Price to account for any liabilities of the Blocker permitted by clause (iii) and clause (iv) above), in each case, subject to the terms and conditions of the Blocker Purchase Agreement, and Investor and Blocker Parent shall indemnify and hold harmless NEP Member and its Affiliates in accordance with the terms of such Blocker Purchase Agreement. In connection therewith,

868227.25C-WILSR01A - MSW

Blocker Parent will convey all right, title, and interest in and to the applicable Blocker Interests (and indirectly the Class B Units held by such Blocker), free and clear of all Encumbrances (other than restrictions on transfer created by this Agreement or applicable securities Laws), to NEP Member or its nominee. Unless the Class B Member Representative exercises the option not to have Blocker Interests purchased as set forth in this Section 7.03(g), references elsewhere in this Section 7.03 to Class B Units or to a Class B Member selling Class B Units shall be to the applicable Blocker Interests and Blocker Parent, respectively, and the other terms of this Section 7.03 shall apply mutatis mutandis, and the parties hereto will take all actions necessary to effect the Change of Control Closing as the purchase of Blocker Interests rather than the purchase of Class B Units.

7.04 Change of Control of a Class B Member.

(a) If, at any time prior to the Flip Date, there is an announcement of a proposed Change of Control of a Class B Member or a Class B Member enters into any agreement providing therefor, then, commencing on the date of such announcement of a proposed Change of Control of a Class B Member or such entry into such agreement and ending on the date that is ninety (90) calendar days after the consummation of such Change of Control of such Class B Member, NEP Member shall have the right, but not the obligation, to acquire all or any portion of the outstanding Class B Units held by such Class B Member (in such capacity, the “COC Member”) at a purchase price that results in an Internal Rate of Return on each Class B Unit for which such election is made, measured from the applicable Acquisition Date of such Class B Unit to the Class B COC Closing Date, of six and three quarters percent (6.75%) (the “Class B COC Purchase Price”), upon the terms and conditions set forth in this Section 7.04 (the “Class B COC Option”). NEP Member may not assign its right to purchase the applicable Class B Units pursuant to this Section 7.04 to any Person other than NEP or a Subsidiary thereof; provided, however, that, in the event of any such assignment, NEP Member and NEP shall remain subject to their respective obligations set forth in this Section 7.04 upon any exercise of the Class B COC Option.

(b) To exercise the Class B COC Option, NEP Member shall deliver to the COC Member written notice of such exercise (the “Class B COC Notice”) containing (i) the date (the “Class B COC Closing Date”) on which the Class B COC Option is to be consummated (the “Class B COC Closing”), (ii) the number of Class B Units to be purchased, (iii) the Class B COC Purchase Price per Class B Unit, and (iv) the form of consideration to be used to pay the Class B COC Purchase Price, which shall be, at NEP Member’s election, either cash, Non-Voting NEP Common Units (or NEP Common Units if the holder of Class B Units to be purchased requests in writing, not less than three (3) Business Days prior to the applicable Class B COC Closing Date, the issuance of NEP Common Units), or a combination of cash and Non-Voting NEP Common Units (or NEP Common Units if the holder of Class B Units to be purchased requests in writing, not less than three (3) Business Days prior to the applicable Class B COC Closing Date, the issuance of NEP Common Units). If some or all of the Class B COC Purchase Price consists of NEP Common Units or Non-Voting NEP Common Units, the Issuance Price for each such NEP Common Unit or Non-Voting NEP Common Unit will be specified as the 10-day VWAP of the NEP Common Units on the date of the announcement of, or entry into agreement with respect to, the proposed Change of Control of the applicable Class B Member. The Class B COC Notice shall be delivered to the COC Member at least seven (7) Business Days and no more than ten (10) Business Days in advance of the Class B COC Closing Date.

(iv) the aggregate number of NEP Common Units and Non-Voting NEP Common Units that will be issued to holders of Class B Units at the Class B COC Closing, together with all NEP Common Units and Non-Voting NEP Common Units issued in all prior exercises of the Call Option, shall be no more than twenty-two and one half percent (22.5%) of the total number of outstanding NEP Common Units on a Fully Diluted Basis (including any NEP Common Units to be issued at the applicable Class B COC Closing).

(d) On the Class B COC Closing Date, (i) the COC Member will convey all of its right, title, and interest in and to such COC Member’s Class B Units identified in the Class B COC Notice, free of all Encumbrances (other than those created by this Agreement or securities Laws), to NEP Member or its nominee; (ii) NEP Member or its nominee will pay the cash portion of the Class B COC Purchase Price to such COC Member (or its nominee) by wire transfer of immediately available funds; and (iii) NEP shall satisfy the remaining portion of the Class B COC Purchase Price by issuing Non-Voting NEP Common Units (or, if requested by the COC Member pursuant to Section 7.04(b), NEP Common Units) to such COC Member no later than three (3) Business Days after the Class B COC Closing Date, and, in connection therewith, NEP shall instruct, and shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause, its Transfer Agent to record the issuance of such Non-Voting NEP Common Units or NEP Common Units, as the case may be, to such COC Member (or its nominee). No fractional NEP Common Units or Non-Voting NEP Common Units, as the case may be, will be issued. The Members agree that the Class B COC Closing shall be subject to the receipt of all applicable Required Governmental Authorizations. In the event any such Required Governmental Authorizations shall not have been obtained by the date that is otherwise scheduled to be the Class B COC Closing Date, then such Class B COC Closing date shall automatically be delayed until such date as all such Required Governmental Authorizations have been obtained and, for the avoidance of doubt, the Class B COC Purchase Price set forth in the Class B COC Notice shall be calculated from the applicable Acquisition Date of the Class B Units to be purchased until such date as all such Required Governmental Authorizations have been obtained.

(e) Each Class B Member hereby agrees that, in connection with the Class B COC Closing, such Class B Member (or its Affiliates) shall use any cash portion of the Class B COC Purchase Price and all other cash on hand and all Cash Equivalents of such Class B Member to repay all of such Class B Member’s then outstanding Indebtedness under the Credit Agreement (including any breakage costs, termination fees, or other payments that would be due or payable thereunder) and all other Indebtedness required to be repaid as a result of the exercise of such Class B COC Option, in each case, pursuant to which the Class B Units being acquired pursuant to the exercise of such Class B COC Option are Encumbered (other than Indebtedness incurred pursuant to a Qualifying Financing (which, for the avoidance of doubt, shall not be secured by Encumbrances on any Class B Units)). To the extent that the cash portion (if any) of the Class B COC Purchase Price (net of any deductions or withholdings required under applicable Law), and all cash on hand and all Cash Equivalents of such Class B Member,

868227.25C-WILSR01A - MSW

are insufficient to repay in full all Indebtedness of such Class B Member and any other Indebtedness pursuant to which such Class B Units are Encumbered that is required to be repaid as a result of the exercise of such Class B COC Closing, plus the amounts required to be paid by such Class B Member constituting amounts owed by such Class B Member as termination payments and unpaid amounts under any swap, cap, forward, future, or other derivative transaction entered into in connection with the hedging of interest rates under the Credit Agreement, and minus amounts required to be paid to Investor constituting amounts owed by the counterparty under any such swap, cap, forward, future, or other derivative transaction as termination payments and unpaid amounts under any such swap, cap, forward, future, or other derivative transaction (such deficiency, a “Class B COC Cash Shortfall”), then such Class B Member shall use reasonable best efforts to remedy such Class B COC Cash Shortfall as promptly as practicable by obtaining Qualifying Financing in an amount required to remedy the Class B COC Cash Shortfall. The Members agree that until the Credit Agreement Payment in Full, each Class B COC Closing shall be subject to there being no Class B COC Cash Shortfall. If there is a Class B COC Cash Shortfall and the applicable Class B Members are unable, using reasonable best efforts, to secure Qualifying Financing or to refinance the existing Qualifying Financing with another Qualifying Financing by such Class B COC Closing Date, then the applicable Class B COC Closing shall automatically be delayed for a period of at least five (5) Business Days to allow such Class B Members to remedy the applicable Class B COC Cash Shortfall or until there is otherwise no longer a Class B COC Cash Shortfall associated with the exercise of such Class B COC Option. If NEP Member and the applicable Class B Members elect to delay the Class B COC Closing for more than ten (10) Business Days in connection with the preceding sentence, then NEP Member and such Class B Members shall cooperate in good faith to remedy the applicable Class B COC Cash Shortfall prior to the applicable Class B COC Closing Date (provided that the foregoing shall not require such Class B Members to take any actions to remedy such Class B COC Cash Shortfall other than seeking Qualifying Financing in accordance with this Section 7.04(e); provided, further, that the foregoing shall not require NEP or NEP Member to take any actions to remedy such Class B COC Cash Shortfall other than such cooperation with the Class B Members). If the applicable Class B Members are unable to remedy the applicable Class B COC Cash Shortfall within twenty (20) Business Days thereafter, then the applicable Class B COC Notice shall be deemed revoked. If the Class B Members are able to obtain Qualifying Financing in an amount equal to or greater than the Class B COC Cash Shortfall, then (1) the Class B Member Representative shall promptly deliver written notice thereof to NEP Member, (2) the Class B COC Closing shall occur as promptly thereafter as practicable, (3) the Class B COC Purchase Price shall be calculated from the applicable Acquisition Date of the Class B Units to be purchased to the date on which such Class B COC Closing actually occurs, and (4) the Issuance Price of the NEP Common Units and Non-Voting NEP Common Units, if any, to be issued as payment (or partial payment) of the applicable Class B COC Purchase Price shall be the price set forth in the original Class B COC Notice.

(f) Each Member agrees to cooperate fully with the Company, the Managing Member, and NEP to effect the Class B COC Closing as reasonably requested, including using its reasonable best efforts to obtain all applicable Governmental Authorizations, terminating and releasing all Encumbrances on the applicable Class B Units (other than those created by this Agreement or securities Laws), and entering into any agreements and instruments and executing any certificates or other documents the Managing Member reasonably deems necessary or appropriate to consummate the Disposition of the applicable Class B Units (provided that the foregoing shall not require the Class B Members to take any actions to remedy any Class B COC Cash Shortfall other than seeking Qualifying Financing in accordance with Section 7.04(e)). The Class B Members and NEP agree to use commercially reasonable efforts to coordinate with the Transfer Agent to record the issuance of NEP Common Units and Non-Voting NEP Common Units, as the case may be, to the COC Member (or its nominee).

(h) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Section 7.04(a), with respect to any and all Class B Units to be purchased pursuant to a Class B COC Option that are held directly or indirectly by any Blocker, so long as (i) Investor Fund or any of its Affiliates Controls the Blocker Parent of such Blocker; (ii) immediately before the Class B COC Closing (after giving effect to the transactions contemplated by the Blocker Purchase Agreement), the only assets of the applicable Blocker (other than cash or current tax assets) are Class B Units; (iii) the applicable Blocker has engaged in no business activities other than its organizational activities, acquiring, financing, accepting, owning, and holding, directly or indirectly, Class B Units, and activities incidental thereto and (iv) on the applicable Class B COC Closing Date, the applicable Blocker has no liabilities other than immaterial liabilities incurred in connection with the foregoing activities in the ordinary course of business, then, unless the Class B Member Representative provides written notice to NEP Member within five (5) days of receipt of such Class B COC Notice that it does not wish for NEP Member (or its nominee) to purchase all of the issued and outstanding Blocker Interests of such Blocker pursuant to the exercise of such Class B COC Option, NEP Member (or its nominee) shall be required to purchase, and Blocker Parent shall be required to sell, all of the Blocker Interests of the applicable Blocker that holds, directly or indirectly, Class B Units rather than a direct purchase of the outstanding Class B Units held (directly or indirectly) by such Blocker, on the same terms and subject to the same conditions as set forth herein for the purchase of Class B Units pursuant to the Class B COC Option (except that equitable adjustments shall be made to the Class B COC Purchase Price to account for any liabilities of the Blocker permitted by clause (iii) and clause (iv) above), in each case, subject to the terms and conditions of the Blocker Purchase Agreement, and Investor and Blocker Parent shall indemnify and hold harmless NEP Member and its Affiliates in accordance with the terms of such Blocker Purchase Agreement. In connection therewith, Blocker Parent will convey all right, title, and interest in and to the applicable Blocker Interests (and indirectly the Class B Units held by such Blocker), free and clear of all Encumbrances (other than restrictions on transfer created by this Agreement or applicable securities Laws), to NEP Member or its nominee. Unless the Class B Member Representative exercises the option not to have Blocker Interests purchased as set forth in this Section 7.04(h), references elsewhere in this Section 7.04 to Class B Units or to a Class B Member selling Class B Units shall be to the applicable Blocker Interests and Blocker Parent, respectively, and the other terms of this Section 7.04 shall apply mutatis mutandis, and the parties hereto will take all actions necessary to effect the Class B COC Closing as the purchase of Blocker Interests rather than the purchase of Class B Units.

(b) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, and with the exception that the approval of Investor described in this paragraph is not required for any Guaranteed Tax Credit Dispute, the Partnership Representative must: (i) obtain the prior written approval of Investor (not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) with respect to (y) commencing any judicial or administrative action or appealing any adverse determination of a Governmental Authority, in each case relating to Taxes and (z) surrendering, settling or compromising any audit or proceeding relating to Taxes, in each case of clause (y) or (z), only to the extent such action, adverse determination, audit or proceeding, as applicable, relates to a taxable period during which Investor held Class B Units; and (ii) inform and consult with Investor, on a timely basis, regarding the status of investigations, audits, proceedings and negotiations with any Governmental Authority, in each case, to the extent relating to Taxes and a taxable period during which the Investor held Class B Units. Any reasonable cost or expense incurred by the Partnership Representative in connection with its duties, including the preparation for or pursuance of administrative or judicial proceedings, shall be paid by the Company. For the avoidance of doubt, the approval of Investor shall not be required pursuant to this Section 8.03 in connection with any Guaranteed Tax Credit Dispute; provided that the Partnership Representative shall keep Investor reasonably informed in connection with the developments in any Guaranteed Tax Credit Dispute and consider any reasonable comments received in connection therewith.

(c) The Partnership Representative may, in its reasonable discretion, make the election provided by Section 6221(b) of the Code to have Subchapter C of Chapter 63 of the Code not apply (the “Election Out”).

(d) If the Internal Revenue Service proposes an adjustment in the amount of any item of income, gain, loss, deduction, or credit of the Company, or any Member’s (or former Member’s) distributive share thereof, and such adjustment results in an “imputed underpayment” as described in Section 6225(b) of the Code (a “Covered Audit Adjustment”), the Partnership Representative may (but shall not be required to) elect, to the extent that such election is available (taking into account whether the Partnership Representative has received any needed information on a timely basis from the Members and former Members, if applicable), and the Election Out was not previously made, to apply the alternative method provided by Section 6226 of the Code (the “Alternative Method”). To the extent that the Partnership Representative does not elect the Alternative Method with respect to a Covered Audit Adjustment, the Partnership Representative shall use commercially reasonable efforts to (a) request

868227.25C-WILSR01A - MSW

information necessary to, and to make any modifications available under Sections 6225(c) of the Code to the extent that such modifications are available (taking into account whether the Partnership Representative has received any needed information on a timely basis from the Members and former Members) as would, reduce any Company Level Taxes payable by the Company with respect to the Covered Audit Adjustment, and (b) if requested by a Member, provide to such Member information allowing such Member to file an amended U.S. federal income Tax return, as described in Section 6225(c)(2) of the Code, to the extent that such amended return and payment of any related U.S. federal income Taxes would reduce any Company Level Taxes payable by the Company with respect to the Covered Audit Adjustment (after taking into account any modifications described in clause (a)). Similar procedures shall be followed in connection with any state or local income Tax audit that incorporates rules similar to Subchapter C of Chapter 63 of the Code.

868227.25C-WILSR01A - MSW

(e) Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, any Taxes, penalties, and interest payable under the Subchapter C of Chapter 63 of the Code by the Company (“Company Level Taxes”) shall be treated as attributable to the Members (and former Members if applicable) of the Company, and the Partnership Representative shall cause the Company to allocate the burden of any such Company Level Taxes to those Members (and former Members if applicable) to whom such amounts are reasonably attributable (whether as a result of their status, actions, inactions, or otherwise), taking into account the effect of any modifications described in Section 8.03(d) that reduce the amount of Company Level Taxes. All Company Level Taxes allocated to a Member (or a former Member if applicable), at the option of the Managing Member, shall (i) be promptly paid to the Company by such Member (or former Member if applicable) (“Option A”) or (ii) be paid by reducing the amount of the current or next succeeding distribution or distributions which would otherwise have been made to such Member pursuant to Section 5.01 or Section 5.02 and, if such distributions are not sufficient for that purpose, by reducing the proceeds of liquidation otherwise payable to such Member pursuant to Section 5.03 (“Option B”). If the Managing Member selects Option A, the Company’s payment of the Company Level Taxes allocated to the applicable Member (or former Member if applicable) shall be treated as a distribution to such Member (or former Member) and the payment by such Member (or former Member) to the Company shall be treated as a capital contribution for U.S. federal income Tax purposes; provided that such payments shall not affect the Capital Accounts of, any other contributions to be made by, or the distributions and allocations to be made to the applicable Members (or former Member) under this Agreement. If the Managing Member selects Option B, the applicable Member shall for all purposes of this Agreement be treated as having received a distribution of the amount of its allocable share of the Company Level Taxes at the time such Company Level Taxes are paid by the Company. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law, each Member (whether or not such Member becomes a Member after the Effective Date) hereby agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Company and the other Members (or former Members if applicable) from and against any liability for Company Level Taxes allocated to such Member in accordance with this Section 8.03(e) (including, with respect to any former Member, any Company Level Taxes allocated to such former Member that are attributable to taxable periods (or portions thereof) during which such former Member was treated as holding an interest in the Company).

(f) If any Member intends to file a notice of inconsistent treatment under Section 6222(c) of the Code, such Member shall give reasonable notice under the circumstances to the other Members of such intent and the manner in which the Member’s intended treatment of an item is (or may be) inconsistent with the treatment of that item by the other Members.

(g) Except as may be required by applicable Law, the Managing Member and the Company shall not make any election or take any action, including such elections or actions specifically authorized under this Section 8.03, that reasonably would be expected to have a disproportionate adverse effect on Investor or its direct or indirect investors.

8.04 Certain Agreements. Each Member represents, as of the Effective Date, and covenants to the Company and each other Member that during the period in which such Member holds a Membership Interest in the Company, (a) its ownership of a Membership Interest will not (i) during the applicable investment tax credit recapture period or any period in which depreciation deductions under the Modified Accelerated Cost Recovery System (MACRS) may be claimed by a Tax Equity Entity with respect to any direct or indirect asset, cause any portion of the Company’s or any of its Subsidiaries’ assets or any assets of other Non-Controlled Entities or their respective Subsidiaries to be treated as “tax-exempt use property” within the meaning of Section 168(h) of the Code (including by reason of any Blocker’s being treated as or becoming at any time a “tax-exempt controlled entity” (within the meaning

868227.25C-WILSR01A - MSW

of Section 168(h)(6)(F) of the Code)) or (ii) result in a Tax Equity Entity having a direct or indirect owner that (A) is not “United States person” within the meaning of Code Section 7701(a)(30) (other than any such owner who holds its interest in the Tax Equity Entity indirectly through an entity classified as a U.S. corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes) or (B) during (x) the period that production Tax credits under Section 45 of the Code (or any successor provision) may be claimed with respect to the output of any direct or indirect asset of a Tax Equity Entity, or (y) any applicable depreciation recovery period of any direct or indirect asset of a Tax Equity Entity, is a Related Party; and (b) such Member will not take any action that would result in any change in ownership or reassessment with respect to Genesis Solar, LLC (or its real property) for purposes of §64 of the California Revenue & Taxation Code.

The “Cash Flows” taken into account in determining the Internal Rate of Return with respect to a Class B Unit shall consist solely of (A) the sum of (x) the amount of the Capital Contribution per Class B Unit made (or deemed to be made) by the applicable Class B Member (or its predecessor in respect of such Class B Unit) on the Effective Date, Initial Closing Date, or, the Additional Closing Date (if any), as applicable, in exchange for such Class B Unit on the Effective Date, Initial Closing Date, or, the Additional Closing Date (if any), as applicable, (y) any additional Capital Contributions made by such Class B Member (or its predecessor in respect of such Class B Unit) pursuant to Section 4.04 in respect of such Class B Unit, and (z) all distributions to the applicable Class B Member (or its predecessor in respect of such Class B Unit), including distributions in respect of such Class B Unit pursuant to the proviso set forth in Section 5.01(d). Any amount received by the Class B Members (or their predecessors in respect of Class B Units) that is in the nature of a recovery or replacement of, or indemnity or compensation for, and is the substantial economic equivalent of, an item that would otherwise be taken into account in the foregoing clauses (x), (y), or (z) (which for the avoidance of doubt, will not include any recovery or replacement of, or indemnity or compensation for, actual out-of-pocket losses, costs, or expenses of the Class B Members) will be deemed received for purposes of the calculation of the Internal Rate of Return on the date so received by such Class B Member (or its predecessor or nominee).

(c) Any dispute by a Class B Member of any item or procedure or calculation of, or which affects, the achievement of the Internal Rate of Return contained in any notice or report delivered to the Class B Members will be disputed in accordance with the dispute resolution mechanism set forth in Article 11.

This Article 11 shall apply to any dispute arising under or related to this Agreement (whether arising in contract, tort, or otherwise, and whether arising at law or in equity), including (a) any dispute regarding the construction, interpretation, performance, validity, or enforceability of any provision of this Agreement or whether any Person is in compliance with, or breach of, any provisions of this Agreement, and (b) subject to Section 11.02, any deadlock among the Members with respect to any matter subject to a vote of the Members, and (c) the applicability of this Article 11 to a particular dispute. Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Article 11 shall not apply to any matters that, pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement, are to be determined solely by the Managing Member. Any dispute to which this Article 11 applies is referred to herein as a “Dispute.” With respect to a particular Dispute, each Member that is a party to such Dispute is referred to herein as a “Disputing Member.” The provisions of this Article 11 shall be the exclusive method of resolving Disputes.

11.02 Negotiation to Resolve Disputes. If a Dispute arises, the Disputing Members (or agents thereof) shall promptly meet (whether by telephone or in person) in a good faith attempt to resolve the Dispute.

868227.25C-WILSR01A - MSW

11.03 Courts. If a Dispute is still unresolved following ten (10) Business Days after the Disputing Members attempted in good faith to resolve the Dispute in accordance with Section 11.02, then any of such Disputing Members may submit such Dispute to the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware or, in the event that such Court does not have jurisdiction over the subject matter of such dispute, to another court of the State of Delaware or a U.S. federal court located in the State of Delaware (collectively, “Delaware Courts”). Each of the Members irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of, and agrees not to commence any action, suit, or proceeding relating to a Dispute except in, the Delaware Courts and hereby consents to service of process in any such Dispute by the delivery of such process to such party at the address and in the manner provided in Section 13.01. Each of the Members hereby irrevocably and unconditionally waives any objection to the laying of venue in any Dispute in the Delaware Courts and hereby further irrevocably and unconditionally waives and agrees not to plead or claim in any such court that any action, suit, or proceeding brought in any such court has been brought in an inconvenient forum. EACH MEMBER IRREVOCABLY WAIVES, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, any right it may have to a TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION, suit, OR PROCEEDING arising out of, relating to or otherwise WITH RESPECT TO THIS AGREEMENT or any transaction contemplated hereby.

11.04 Specific Performance. The Members understand and agree that (a) irreparable damage would occur in the event that any provision of this Agreement were not performed in accordance with its specific terms, (b) although monetary damages may be available for the breach of such covenants and agreements such monetary damages are not intended to and do not adequately compensate for the harm that would result from a breach of this Agreement, would be an inadequate remedy therefor and shall not be construed to diminish or otherwise impair in any respect any Member’s or the Company’s right to specific performance, and (c) the right of specific performance is an integral part of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and without that right none of the Members would have entered into this Agreement. It is accordingly agreed that, in addition to any other remedy that may be available to it, including monetary damages, each of the Members and the Company shall be entitled to an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this Agreement. Each of the Members further agrees that neither the Company nor any Member shall be required to obtain, furnish, or post any bond or similar instrument in connection with or as a condition to obtaining any remedy referred to in this Section 11.04, and each Member waives any objection to the imposition of such relief or any right it may have to require the obtaining, furnishing, or posting of any such bond or similar instrument.

DISSOLUTION, WINDING-UP AND TERMINATION

12.01 Dissolution. The Company shall dissolve and its affairs shall be wound up on the first to occur of the following events (each a “Dissolution Event”):

(a) consent of NEP Member and Class B Member Approval; or

(b) an event that makes it unlawful for the business of the Company to be carried on; provided that, if such an event occurs, then the Members shall negotiate in good faith to determine a workaround to allow the business of the Company to be lawfully carried on and such event shall not be deemed a “Dissolution Event” unless and until the Members mutually agree that no such workaround is reasonably feasible.

Each Member hereby waives its right to make an application for the dissolution of the Company pursuant to Section 18-802 of the Act.

12.02 Winding-Up and Termination.

(a) On the occurrence of a Dissolution Event, the Managing Member shall, or shall designate another Person to, serve as liquidator. The liquidator shall proceed diligently to wind up the affairs of the Company and make final distributions as provided herein and in the Act. The costs of winding-up shall be borne as a Company expense. Until final distribution, the liquidator shall continue to operate the Company properties with all of the power and authority of the Members. The steps to be accomplished by the liquidator are as follows:

868227.25C-WILSR01A - MSW

(i) as promptly as possible after dissolution and again after final winding-up, the liquidator shall cause a proper accounting to be made by a recognized firm of certified public accountants of the liquidator’s choosing of the Company’s assets, liabilities, and operations through the last calendar day of the month in which the dissolution occurs or the final winding-up is completed, as applicable;

(ii) the liquidator shall discharge from Company funds all of the Indebtedness of the Company and other debts, liabilities, expenses, and obligations of the Company (including all expenses incurred in winding-up and any loans described in Section 4.05) or otherwise make adequate provision for payment and discharge thereof (including the establishment of a cash escrow fund for contingent liabilities in such amount and for such term as the liquidator may reasonably determine); and

(iii) all remaining assets of the Company shall be distributed to the Members as follows:

(A) the liquidator may sell any or all Company property, including to Members, and any resulting gain or loss from each sale shall be computed and allocated to the Capital Accounts of the Members in accordance with Section 12.02(b);

(B) with respect to all Company property that has not been sold, the fair market value of that property shall be determined and the Capital Accounts of the Members shall be adjusted to reflect the manner in which the unrealized income, gain, loss, and deduction inherent in property that has not been previously reflected in the Capital Accounts would be allocated among the Members if there were a taxable Disposition of that property for the fair market value of that property on the date of distribution, as determined by the Managing Member in its reasonable discretion (it being agreed by the Members that a determination by the Managing Member that the fair market value of any such property equals the value of such property reflected in current financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP shall be deemed reasonable); and

(C) Company property (including cash) shall be distributed among the Members in accordance with Section 5.03; and those distributions shall be made before the end of the taxable year in which liquidation of the Company occurs or, if later, within 90 days after the date of the liquidation of the Company.

868227.25C-WILSR01A - MSW

(iv) If, after giving effect to all allocations, distributions and contributions for all periods (other than those required by this Section 12.02(a)(iv)), the NEP Member has a deficit in its Capital Account balance following the “liquidation,” within the meaning of Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(g), of the NEP Member’s Membership Interest, the NEP Member will be obligated to contribute cash to the Company in an amount equal to such deficit balance by the end of the Fiscal Year of the Company during which the liquidation of the Company occurs, or if later, within ninety (90) days after the date of such liquidation, except that the restoration obligation of the NEP Member in the aggregate pursuant to this Section 12.02(a)(iv) shall not be more than five percent (5%) of the NEP Member’s Effective Date Capital Contribution. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (A) the NEP Member will have the unilateral right by written notice to the Managing Member to (1) increase the amount of its deficit restoration obligation over the amount described in the immediately preceding sentence or (2) decrease the amount of, or eliminate, its deficit restoration obligation at any time in accordance with Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(f); (B) after the Flip Date, at the end of any Fiscal Year in which the NEP Member’s deficit restoration obligation exceeds the absolute value of the NEP Member’s deficit Capital Account balance, such deficit restoration obligation shall be automatically reduced in accordance with Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(f) to equal such absolute value; and (C) the NEP Member’s deficit restoration obligation will be eliminated in accordance with Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(f) on the first date on or after the Flip Date on which the Capital Account balance of the NEP Member is equal to or greater than zero. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, no other Member shall have any obligation to restore any deficit in its Capital Account balance unless and until such deficit restoration obligation is consented to in writing by the Managing Member.

(b) Notwithstanding anything in Section 5.04 to the contrary, in the Fiscal Year or other applicable period in which a Dissolution Event occurs, items of income, gain, loss, and deduction shall be allocated among the Members in a manner such that the Capital Account of each Member, immediately after giving effect to such allocation, is, as nearly as possible, equal (proportionately) to the amount of the distributions that would be made to such Member pursuant to Section 5.03.

(c) The distribution of cash or property to a Member in accordance with the provisions of this Section 12.02 constitutes a complete return to the Member of its Capital Contributions and a complete distribution to the Member of its Membership Interest and all the Company’s property and constitutes a compromise to which all Members have consented pursuant to Section 18-502(b) of the Act. To the extent that a Member returns funds to the Company, it has no claim against any other Member for those funds.

(d) No dissolution or termination of the Company shall relieve a Member from any obligation to the extent such obligation has accrued as of the date of such dissolution or termination. Upon such termination, any books and records of the Company that the liquidator reasonably determines may ever be needed again by one or more Persons who were Members as of the dissolution or termination shall be retained by the Managing Member or its designee, who shall keep such books and records (subject to review by any Person that was a Member at the time of dissolution) for a period at least three (3) years. After the expiration of such period of three (3) years, if the Managing Member (or its designee) no longer agrees to keep such books and records, it shall offer the Persons who were Members at the time of dissolution or termination a reasonable opportunity to take over such custody, (i) shall deliver such books and

100

868227.25C-WILSR01A - MSW

records to such Persons if they elect to take over such custody (or as all of such Persons otherwise direct) and, upon request by any other Person that elects to take custody (and at such other Person’s cost), deliver a copy of such books and records to such other Person, or (ii) may destroy such books and records if no such Person so elects.

12.03 Deficit Capital Accounts. Except as provided in Section 12.02(a)(iv), no Member will be required to pay to the Company, to any other Member or to any third party any deficit balance that may exist from time to time in its or another Member’s Capital Account.

12.04 Certificate of Cancellation. On completion of the distribution of Company assets as provided herein, the Managing Member shall file a certificate of cancellation with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware, cancel any other filings made pursuant to Section 2.06, and take such other actions as may be necessary to terminate the existence of the Company. Upon the filing of such certificate of cancellation, the existence of the Company shall terminate (and the Term shall end), except as may be otherwise provided by the Act or other applicable Law.

ARTICLE 13

GENERAL PROVISIONS

13.01 Notices. Except as expressly set forth to the contrary in this Agreement, all notices, requests, or consents provided for or permitted to be given under this Agreement must be in writing and must be delivered to the recipient by electronic mail (a copy of which may be delivered in person or by courier or mail). A notice, request, or consent given under this Agreement is effective on receipt by the applicable Member. All notices, requests, and consents to be sent to a Member must be sent to or made at the addresses given for that Member on Exhibit A or such other address as that Member may specify by notice to the Managing Member and the other Members. Any notice, request, or consent to the Company must be given to all of the Members. Whenever any notice is required to be given by Law, the Delaware Certificate, or this Agreement, a written waiver thereof, signed by the Person entitled to notice, whether before or after the time stated therein, shall be deemed equivalent to the giving of such notice.

13.02 Entire Agreement; Superseding Effect. This Agreement and the other Transaction Documents (as that term is defined in the Purchase Agreement) constitutes the entire agreement of the Members and their Affiliates relating to the Company and the transactions contemplated hereby and supersedes all provisions and concepts contained in all prior agreements.

13.03 Effect of Waiver or Consent. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, a waiver or consent, express or implied, to or of any breach or default by any Member in the performance by that Member of its obligations with respect to the Company is not a consent or waiver to or of any other breach or default in the performance by that Member of the same or any other obligations of that Member with respect to the Company. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, failure on the part of a Member to complain of any act of any Member or to declare any Member in default with respect to the Company, irrespective of how long that failure continues, does not constitute a waiver by that Member of its rights with respect to that default until the applicable statute of limitations has run.

102

868227.25C-WILSR01A - MSW

13.04 Amendment or Restatement. Each of this Agreement and the Delaware Certificate may, subject to Section 6.03(a), be amended or restated only by a written instrument executed (or, in the case of the Delaware Certificate, approved) by the Managing Member. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (a) the Managing Member may amend this Agreement without the approval of any Members (i) to implement the valid admission of New Members or Assignees as Members; (ii) to correct typographical, formatting, cross-referencing, or other similar errors; and (iii) to update Exhibit A from time to time to reflect the valid admission of New Members, the valid admission of Assignees as Members, the making of additional Capital Contributions by Members, the issuances of Class A Units, Class B Units, or other classes or groups of Membership Interests, and the Disposition of Membership Interests, so long as such transactions were approved and consummated in accordance with the terms of this Agreement; and (b) if the Managing Member determines that any amendment of this Agreement is necessary to satisfy any Law, the Members shall negotiate in good faith to enter into an amendment of this Agreement to satisfy such Law that is mutually agreeable.

13.05 Binding Effect. Subject to the restrictions on Dispositions set forth in this Agreement, this Agreement is binding on and shall inure to the benefit of the Members and their respective successors and permitted assigns.

103

868227.25C-WILSR01A - MSW

13.06 Governing Law; Severability. THIS AGREEMENT IS GOVERNED BY AND SHALL BE CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF DELAWARE, EXCLUDING ANY CONFLICT-OF-LAWS RULE OR PRINCIPLE THAT MIGHT REFER THE GOVERNANCE OR THE CONSTRUCTION OF THIS AGREEMENT TO THE LAW OF ANOTHER JURISDICTION. In the event of a direct conflict between the provisions of this Agreement and any mandatory, non-waivable provision of the Act, such provision of the Act shall control. If any provision of the Act provides that it may be varied or superseded in a limited liability company agreement (or otherwise by agreement of the members or managers of a limited liability company), such provision shall be deemed superseded and waived in its entirety if this Agreement contains a provision addressing the same issue or subject matter. If any provision of this Agreement or the application thereof to any Member or circumstance is held invalid or unenforceable to any extent, (a) the remainder of this Agreement and the application of that provision to other Members or circumstances is not affected thereby, and (b) the Members shall negotiate in good faith to replace that provision with a new provision that is valid and enforceable and that puts the Members in substantially the same economic, business, and legal position as they would have been in if the original provision had been valid and enforceable.

13.07 Further Assurances. In connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby, each Member shall execute and deliver any additional documents and instruments and perform any additional acts that may be necessary or appropriate to effectuate and perform the provisions of this Agreement and those transactions; provided, however, that this Section 13.07 shall not obligate a Member to furnish guarantees or other credit supports by such Member’s Parent or other Affiliates.

104

868227.25C-WILSR01A - MSW

13.08 Appointment of Class B Member Representative.

(a) By the execution and delivery of this Agreement (or any joinder or counterpart thereto), each Class B Member other than the NEP Class B Parties hereby irrevocably constitutes and appoints the Class B Member Representative as the true and lawful agent and attorney-in-fact of such Class B Member, with full power of substitution to act jointly in the name, place, and stead of such Class B Member to act on behalf of such Class B Member in any litigation or arbitration involving this Agreement, to do or refrain from doing all such further acts and things, and to execute all such documents as the Class B Member Representative shall deem necessary or appropriate in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, including the power to (i) execute and deliver all amendments, waivers, ancillary agreements, certificates, and documents that the Class B Member Representative deems necessary or appropriate in connection with the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, (ii) grant any and all approvals or consents on behalf of such Class B Member pursuant to this Agreement, and any and all other matters requiring the consent or approval of such Class B Member under this Agreement or any other agreement, instrument, or document contemplated hereby or in connection with the Class B Units held by such Class B Member, other than any such matter that requires consent of any particular Class B Member, (iii) receive funds, make payments of funds, and withhold a portion of any amounts to be paid to such Class B Member hereunder or any other payment to be made by or on behalf of such Class B Member pursuant to this Agreement, including amounts required to pay the fees and expenses of professionals incurred by the Class B Members in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, (iv) do or refrain from doing any further act or deed on behalf of such Class B Member that the Class B Member Representative deems necessary or appropriate in its sole discretion relating to the subject matter of this Agreement, and (v) receive service of process in connection with any claims under this Agreement. Initial Investor is hereby appointed as the initial Class B Member Representative.

(b) The appointment of the Class B Member Representative hereunder shall be deemed coupled with an interest and shall be irrevocable, and survive the death, incompetence, bankruptcy or liquidation of any Class B Member bound by Section 13.08(a) and shall be binding on any successor thereto; provided, however, that the Class B Member Representative’s appointment hereto shall terminate automatically when the Class B Member Representative is no longer the record owner of any Class B Units or is no longer the managing member or general partner that Controls a Class B Member that owns Class B Units. Initial Investor shall have the right to designate a successor Class B Member Representative upon written notice delivered to the Managing Member not less than ten (10) Business Days in advance of such designation; provided that the Person appointed to serve as successor Class B Member Representative must be a record owner of Class B Units or the managing member or general partner that Controls a Class B Member that owns Class B Units. The Class B Members other than the NEP Class B Parties hereby confirm all that the Class B Member Representative shall do or cause to be done by virtue of its appointment hereby as the Class B Member Representative. All actions taken by the Class B Member Representative under this Agreement shall be binding upon each Class B Member other than the NEP Class B Parties and such Class B Member’s successors as if expressly confirmed and ratified in writing by such Class B Member, and all defenses that may be available to such Class B Member to contest,

105

868227.25C-WILSR01A - MSW

negate, or disaffirm the action of the Class B Member Representative taken in good faith under this Agreement are waived.

(c) The Company, NEP Member, NEP, and any other Person may conclusively and absolutely rely, without inquiry and without any liability whatsoever, upon any action of the Class B Member Representative in all matters referred to herein, including that the Class B Member Representative has obtained any prior approval or consent of the Class B Members other than the NEP Class B Parties as may be required, under this Agreement or otherwise, to take any such action. Neither the Company, NEP Member, NEP, nor any other Person will be liable to any Class B Member, any of Affiliate thereof, or any other Person as a result of, in connection with, or relating to the performance of the Class B Member Representative’s duties and obligations under this Agreement, including with respect to any errors in judgment, negligence, oversight, breach of duty, or otherwise of the Class B Member Representative.

13.09 Article 8 of the Uniform Commercial Code. No Member may elect to cause any Membership Interest or other equity interest held by a Class B Member to constitute a “security” within the meaning of Article 8 of the Uniform Commercial Code as in effect from time to time in the State of Delaware or Article 8 of the Uniform Commercial Code of any other applicable jurisdiction.

106

868227.25C-WILSR01A - MSW

13.10 Waiver of Certain Rights. Each Member irrevocably waives any right it may have to maintain any action for dissolution of the Company or for partition of the property of the Company.

13.11 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts with the same effect as if all signing parties had signed the same document. All counterparts shall be construed together and constitute the same instrument.

13.12 Expenses. Except as otherwise provided in Section 7.06, each Member shall bear its own transaction costs and any other costs and expenses incurred in connection with being a Member, holding its Membership Interest, and administering its rights and obligations under this Agreement.
