This THIRD AMENDED AND RESTATED LEASE AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”) is entered into on December 1, 2014 (the “Effective Date”), between SDTS FERC, L.L.C. (together with its transferees, successors and assigns, “Lessor”), and SU FERC, L.L.C. (together with its transferees, successors and assigns, “Lessee”), and in connection herewith, Lessor and Lessee agree, covenant and contract as set forth in this Agreement. Lessor and Lessee are sometimes referred to in this Agreement as a “Party” or collectively as the “Parties.”

Certain capitalized terms used in this Agreement have the meaning assigned to them in Appendix A attached hereto.

WHEREAS, Lessor and Lessee were parties to a Lease Agreement, entered into as of July 13, 2010, as amended, restated and supplemented to date, pursuant to which Lessor leased assets known as the FERC Assets to Lessee (the “FERC Lease Agreement”);

WHEREAS, Lessee was subject to an Agreed Transfer Option issued by the PUCT pursuant to PUCT Docket No. 37990, which provided that the PUCT could order all the FERC Assets to be moved from the SPP to ERCOT by 2014, at which time the FERC Assets would no longer be subject to FERC jurisdiction;

WHEREAS, the PUCT has ordered the FERC Assets to be moved from SPP to ERCOT and all necessary regulatory approvals for the Agreed Transfer Option have been obtained;

WHEREAS, the FERC Assets have been moved to ERCOT and are subject to PUCT jurisdiction and are no longer subject to FERC jurisdiction;

WHEREAS, Section 2.4 of the FERC Lease Agreement provided that once the FERC Assets had been moved to ERCOT, the Parties could to terminate the FERC Lease Agreement and Lessor and Lessee could enter into a new lease for the FERC Assets;

WHEREAS, Lessor is an indirect subsidiary of InfraREIT Partners, LP, whose general partner (the “REIT”) intends to raise equity capital through an initial public offering (the “REIT IPO”), and, in connection with the REIT IPO, Lessor and Lessee desire to amend the terms of the FERC Lease Agreement in certain respects;

WHEREAS, consistent with Section 2.4 of the FERC Lease Agreement, Lessor and Lessee wish to enter into an amended and restated lease for the FERC Assets, now known as the “Stanton Transmission Loop Assets”; and

WHEREAS, instead of entering in to a new lease agreement related to the Stanton Transmission Loop Assets, the Parties have decided to amend and restate the FERC Lease;

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt of which is hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto hereby amend and restate the terms of the FERC Lease as follows:

(a) Upon the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement, Lessor hereby grants to Lessee the exclusive right to use and operate the integrated electrical transmission facilities that comprise Lessor’s 138kv transmission loop around the Stanton Service Territory and that are connected to the ERCOT electric grid owned by Lessor and located within the area depicted on Exhibit A, together with the exclusive right to occupy and use all of Lessor’s interest (whether by fee ownership, easement, lease, sublease, franchise or license) (other than to the extent expressly reserved to Lessor herein) in the premises upon which such facilities are situated (collectively, the “Stanton Transmission Loop Assets”). Subject to necessary regulatory approvals, this Agreement is intended by Lessor and Lessee to be a lease of the Stanton Transmission Loop Assets, as they exist as of the Effective Date.

(b) The Stanton Transmission Loop Assets shall consist of (x) the original assets leased by Lessor to Lessee as of the Effective Date, and (y) any components of the Stanton Transmission Loop Assets that are repaired or replaced pursuant to Section 6.1. The Stanton Transmission Loop Assets shall consist of each of the following components that are owned or leased by Lessor as of the Effective Date and that comprise part of Lessor’s 138kv transmission loop around the Stanton Service Territory (specifically excluding any such Lessor-owned assets that are not part of Lessor’s 138kv transmission loop):

(i) towers and poles affixed to the land, and all necessary and proper foundations, footings, crossarms and other appliances and fixtures for use in connection with said towers, poles and lines;

(ii) overhead, underground and underwater electrical transmission and communications lines, together with related ductwork and insulators;

(iii) distribution transformers mounted on towers or poles and/or anchored to concrete pads;

(iv) electric substation and switching facilities, including all associated transformers, circuit breakers, resistors, capacitors, buses, interconnection and switching facilities, control and protection equipment which monitors the Stanton Transmission Loop Assets, and the building housing the foregoing items;

(v) electric meters affixed to buildings or residences or otherwise required to operate the Stanton Transmission Loop Assets;

(vi) real estate assets, including real property, interests in real property or real property rights (as defined in Section 856(c)(5)(B) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and the regulations promulgated thereunder, and not otherwise included in Sections 1.1(b)(i) – 1.1(b)(v) above) owned or leased by Lessor; and

(vii) all other systems or property owned or leased by Lessor, as identified in the uniform system of accounts for major electric utilities, 18 C.F.R. Part 101, as adopted and amended from time to time by FERC (not otherwise included in Sections 1.1(b)(i) – 1.1(b)(vi) above).

1.2. Exclusive Rights. Throughout the Term of this Agreement, Lessee shall have the exclusive right (i) to operate and use the Stanton Transmission Loop Assets for the transmission of electricity in accordance with applicable rules and regulations of all regulatory agencies having regulatory jurisdiction over the Stanton Transmission Loop Assets, including without limitation, the PUCT, as well as applicable rules and regulations of ERCOT, TRE, NERC and other Regulatory Authorities, and (ii) to utilize the Stanton Transmission Loop Assets (and the associated easements, rights of way and similar rights) for other opportunities and uses (provided that such other uses do not interfere with the current or future transmission and delivery of electricity), subject to the approval of Lessor, such approval not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. Throughout the Term of this Agreement, Lessor shall have access to the Stanton Transmission Loop Assets at all reasonable times for purposes of inspection. Except in the case of emergency, prior to Lessor’s access of the Stanton Transmission Loop Assets, Lessor will provide written notification to Lessee’s operations personnel.

1.3. Absolute Net Lease. This Agreement is intended by the Parties to be an absolute net lease (and, except as otherwise specified herein, the expenses associated with the lease, servicing, insuring, maintenance, repair and operation of the Stanton Transmission Loop Assets shall be for the account of the Lessee, unless expressly stated that such expenses are for the account of Lessor or some other person or entity). Other than as expressly provided herein, (a) Lessee’s obligation to make all payments of Rent as and when the same shall become due and payable in accordance with the terms of this Agreement shall be absolute, irrevocable and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance or subject to any abatement or diminution by set-off, deduction, counterclaim, recoupment, agreement, defense, suspension, deferment, interruption or otherwise, and (b) until such time as all Rent required to be paid has been paid, Lessee shall have no right to terminate this Agreement or to be released, relieved or discharged from its obligation to make, and shall not suspend or discontinue, any payment of Rent for any reason whatsoever.

1.4. Waiver by Lessee. Lessee hereby waives, to the extent permitted by Applicable Law, any and all rights which it may now have or which at any time hereafter may be conferred upon it, by statute or otherwise, to modify, terminate, cancel, quit or surrender this Agreement except in accordance with the express terms hereof.

1.5. Quiet Enjoyment. Lessee shall be entitled to the peaceful and quiet enjoyment of the Stanton Transmission Loop Assets, subject to the terms of this Agreement, so long as Lessee is not in default of this Agreement beyond applicable notice and cure periods.

2.1. Term. Subject to the provisions of Section 2.2 of this Agreement, or as otherwise stated herein, this Agreement is effective on the Effective Date and shall continue through December 31, 2021, unless otherwise terminated in a manner consistent herewith (the “Initial Term”). Thereafter, this Agreement may be renewed for subsequent terms (each, a “Renewal

Term” and, collectively with the Initial Term, the “Term”) by mutual agreement of the Parties; provided, however, that the Rent for any Renewal Term shall be negotiated using the Comparable Rate of Return methodology set forth in Article III of the McAllen Lease. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Parties agree that, in the event that both Parties desire to renew this Agreement upon the expiration of the Initial Term, it is their intention that this Agreement will be combined with, and the Stanton Transmission Loop Assets shall be covered by, the Stanton/Brady/Celeste Lease.

(a) Notwithstanding any provisions to the contrary herein, Lessee shall not surrender, resign, transfer, assign or otherwise cease to be the operator of the Stanton Transmission Loop Assets at any time, including upon the termination of this Agreement or at the expiration of the Term, without first acquiring any necessary regulatory approvals from the PUCT or other Regulatory Authorities regarding such surrender, resignation, transfer, assignment or cessation of such operatorship; provided that, in the event of expiration or termination, the Parties shall use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain all necessary regulatory approvals of the transfer of such operatorship as soon as reasonably practicable.

(b) During such extended period of operatorship, Lessee shall continue to operate the Stanton Transmission Loop Assets and shall continue to pay all Extended Period Rent; provided, however, that if regulatory approval is not obtained within twelve (12) months of initiation of the approval process and such delay is (a) due to Lessor’s failure to reasonably pursue such approval, then the amounts payable as Rent will be eighty percent (80%) of such amount, or (b) due to Lessee’s failure to reasonably pursue such approval, then the amounts payable as Rent will be one hundred five percent (105%) of such amount.

(c) Upon the expiration of the Term or termination of this Agreement, Lessee shall use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain all necessary regulatory approvals as soon as reasonably practicable from the PUCT or other Regulatory Authorities to transfer or assign the CCNs for the Stanton Transmission Loop Assets to Lessor or a third party designated by Lessor and acceptable to the PUCT or other Regulatory Authorities.

2.3. Purchase Option upon Expiration or Termination. Upon the expiration of the Term or termination of this Agreement, Lessor shall have the option to purchase from Lessee any equipment or other property, tangible or intangible, owned by Lessee and principally used in connection with and necessary for the operation of the Stanton Transmission Loop Assets (including any Nonseverable Footprint Projects owned by Lessee, if any), subject to any required regulatory approvals. The purchase price for such property or equipment shall be the greater of (i) the net book value thereof plus 10% and (ii) the fair market value thereof as determined by mutual agreement of Lessor and Lessee. If the Parties fail to agree on the amount of the purchase price, the purchase price shall be determined by arbitration pursuant to Section 13.7. In the event Lessor purchases such equipment, Lessee shall have the right to continue to use such equipment for no cost during the period of any extended operations by Lessee under Section 2.2.

(a) Lessee will pay to Lessor in lawful money of the United States of America which shall be legal tender for the payment of public and private debts, at Lessor’s address set forth in Section 13.8 hereof or at such other place or to such other Person, as Lessor from time to time may designate in a Notice, all Rent contemplated hereby during the Term on the basis hereinafter set forth. If there is a dispute as to the amount of Rent to be paid by Lessee, either Party may submit the dispute to arbitration pursuant to Section 13.7. However, Lessee shall be required to pay, as and when Rent is due and payable hereunder, the Undisputed Rent until such time as the dispute is resolved by agreement between the Parties or by arbitration pursuant to Section 13.7.

(b) Lessee shall pay to Lessor an amount of base rent equal to the amount set forth on the rent supplement executed and delivered by the Parties in connection herewith, which shall be payable monthly in arrears 45 days after the conclusion of the month (“Base Rent”). The Parties acknowledge that such rent supplement also provides for a one-time payment by Lessor to Lessee, calculated in the manner described therein, as a reimbursement for excess rent paid by Lessee for the period from May 1, 2014 through the Effective Date.

3.2. Additional Rent. In addition to Base Rent, Lessee also will pay and discharge as and when due and payable all other amounts, liabilities, obligations and impositions that Lessee assumes or agrees to pay under this Agreement, including without limitation, the expenses described in Section 1.3 and any reimbursement for such amounts and other damages to Lessor in the event that Lessor pays such expenses or performs such obligations on behalf of Lessee (collectively, “Additional Rent”).

3.3. No Set Off. Rent shall be paid to Lessor without set off, deduction or counterclaim; provided, however, that Lessee shall have the right to assert any claim or counterclaim in a separate action brought by Lessee under this Agreement or to assert any mandatory counterclaim in any action brought by Lessor under this Agreement.

3.4. Late Payment Penalty. If Lessee fails to make any payment of Rent to Lessor within five (5) days after it is due, interest shall accrue on the overdue amount, from the date overdue until the date paid, at the Overdue Rate.

4.1. Maintenance, Operation and Repair of the Stanton Transmission Loop Assets.

(a) Lessee, at its own cost and expense, shall maintain (including both scheduled and unscheduled maintenance), operate, repair and make all modifications (other than Footprint Projects) to the Stanton Transmission Loop Assets and any components thereof (whether owned by Lessor or Lessee), including directing all operations of and supplying all personnel necessary for the operation of the Stanton Transmission Loop Assets, in each case, as reasonable and prudent and consistent with Good Utility Practice and as required by Applicable Law. Lessee

shall carry out all obligations under this Agreement as reasonable and prudent and consistent with Good Utility Practice and in accordance with manufacturers’ warranty requirements (during any applicable warranty period) and the Lessee’s established operating procedures and maintenance, rebuild and repair programs so as to keep the Stanton Transmission Loop Assets in good working order, ordinary wear and tear excepted, and in such condition as shall comply in all material respects with all Applicable Laws. Lessee will operate the Stanton Transmission Loop Assets in a reliable and safe manner in compliance with all applicable requirements and regulations of Regulatory Authorities. Lessee will not operate the Stanton Transmission Loop Assets or any component thereof in any manner excluded from coverage by any insurance in effect as required by the terms hereof.

(b) If inspections of the Stanton Transmission Loop Assets by Lessor show that the Stanton Transmission Loop Assets do not meet industry standards or Good Utility Practice for maintenance and repair and/or fail to meet the requirements of any Applicable Law, Lessee shall promptly, but in any event within thirty (30) days after such initial notification, (i) develop a plan for Lessor’s review by which the Stanton Transmission Loop Assets can be modified to comply with the standards, and (ii) complete any and all such modifications consistent with all applicable reliability and safety standards established by regulations, orders or requirements of Regulatory Authorities.

4.2. Licenses and Permits. Lessee shall obtain and maintain any and all licenses, permits and other governmental and third-party consents and approvals required by Applicable Law in order to carry out its obligations under this Agreement.

4.3. Property Taxes and Other Assessments and Fees. Lessee shall bear and timely pay all ad valorem and property taxes, sales and use taxes, or other assessments, governmental charges or fees that shall or may during the Term be imposed on, or arise in connection with, the repair, maintenance or operation of the Stanton Transmission Loop Assets (including all Footprint Projects) (“Lessee Taxes”); provided that Lessee shall not be obligated to pay any net income taxes imposed upon Lessor (“Lessor Taxes”). Upon the written request by Lessor, Lessee shall provide Lessor with evidence of the payment of any such Lessee Taxes, the failure of which to be paid would cause the imposition of a Lien upon the Stanton Transmission Loop Assets or any component thereof or interest therein. Lessee shall assume full responsibility for preparing and furnishing to Lessor for execution all filings with any governmental authority of or in the state and/or locality in which the Stanton Transmission Loop Assets are located in respect of any and all taxes; except that, where required or permitted by Applicable Law, Lessee shall make such filings on behalf of Lessor in the name of Lessor or in Lessee’s own name. In each case in which Lessee furnishes a tax return or any other form to be executed by Lessor for filing with or delivery to any taxing authority, Lessee shall certify to Lessor that such document is in the proper form, is required to be filed under Applicable Law and does not impose any tax or other liability on Lessor or any of its affiliates which is not indemnified by Lessee. Lessee shall be permitted to contest, in its own name when permitted by law but otherwise on behalf of Lessor, in good faith and upon consultation with Lessor, any taxes it is obligated to pay hereunder.

4.4. Requirements of Governmental Agencies and Regulatory Authorities. Lessee, at its expense, shall comply with all Applicable Laws, including without limitation all requirements of the Regulatory Authorities. Lessee shall have the right, in its reasonable discretion and at its cost and expense, to contest by appropriate legal proceedings, the validity or applicability to the Stanton Transmission Loop Assets of any Applicable Law made or issued by any federal, state, county, local or other governmental agency or entity. Any such contest or proceeding shall be controlled and directed by Lessee. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Lessee shall provide Lessor written notice of the commencement and, at reasonable intervals after commencement, the progress of any such legal proceedings.

4.5. Liens. Lessee shall keep the Stanton Transmission Loop Assets free and clear of all Liens other than Permitted Liens; provided, however, that if Lessee wishes to contest any such Lien (other than a Permitted Lien), Lessee shall, promptly, and in any event within thirty (30) days after it receives notice of the filing of such Lien, remove or bond over such Lien from the Stanton Transmission Loop Assets pursuant to Applicable Law. If Lessee fails to promptly remove or bond over any such Lien, Lessor may, after providing notice to Lessee, take reasonable action to satisfy, defend, settle or otherwise remove the Lien at Lessee’s expense.

(a) Lessee shall operate and maintain the Stanton Transmission Loop Assets and conduct all of its other activities in respect thereof in compliance in all material respects with any Applicable Laws relating to air, water, land and the generation, storage, use, handling, transportation, treatment or disposal of Hazardous Material. Lessee shall promptly notify Lessor of any such violation and, to the extent Lessee becomes aware of any environmental, health, safety or security matter that requires a corrective action, Lessee shall, in consultation with Lessor, undertake and complete such corrective action. Lessee shall have the obligation to report any such violations to the appropriate Regulatory Authorities in accordance with Applicable Law and, if practicable, shall give notice thereof to Lessor prior to making such report.

(b) Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Lessee shall not (i) place or locate any underground tanks on the property underlying the Stanton Transmission Loop Assets, (ii) generate, manufacture, transport, produce, use, treat, store, release, dispose of or otherwise deposit Hazardous Materials in or on the Stanton Transmission Loop Assets, the property underlying the Stanton Transmission Loop Assets or any portion thereof other than as permitted by Applicable Laws that govern the same or are applicable thereto, (iii) permit any other substances, materials or conditions in, on or emanating from the Stanton Transmission Loop Assets, the property underlying the Stanton Transmission Loop Assets or any portion thereof which may support a claim or cause of action under any Applicable Law or (iv) undertake any action that would reasonably be expected to cause an unauthorized release of Hazardous Materials at the property underlying the Stanton Transmission Loop Assets.

(c) Lessee shall periodically, at intervals determined in its reasonable discretion in accordance with Good Utility Practice or as required by Applicable Law, at Lessee’s sole expense, conduct inspections of all components of the Stanton Transmission Loop Assets to ensure compliance with Applicable Laws and with this Section 4.6, and shall promptly notify Lessor of the results of any such inspections. Lessor may, at Lessor’s expense, conduct its own testing at times determined in its reasonable discretion, and after reasonable consultation with Lessee, to ensure Lessee’s compliance with Applicable Laws and with this Section 4.6, provided, however, that Lessor agrees to indemnify Lessee, in accordance with Section 12.2, from and against any and all Claims arising from such testing.

4.7. Indebtedness. Lessee shall not incur Indebtedness other than: (i) Indebtedness in an aggregate principal amount of up to the greater of (A) $5,000,000 and (B) an amount equal to one percent (1%) of the sum of, without duplication, (x) the total amount of the Consolidated Net Plant of Lessee, plus (y) the total amount of the Consolidated Net Plant of any guarantor(s) of Lessee’s obligations under any Lease to which Lessee is a party as a lessee, plus (z) the total amount of Leased Consolidated Net Plant of Lessee, in each case on a senior secured basis, (ii) Indebtedness in an aggregate principal amount of up to the greater of (A) $10,000,000 and (B) an amount equal to one-and-a-half percent (1.5%) of the sum of, without duplication, (x) the total amount of the Consolidated Net Plant of Lessee, plus (y) the total amount of the Consolidated Net Plant of any guarantor(s) of Lessee’s obligations under any Lease to which Lessee is party as a lessee, plus (z) the total amount of Leased Consolidated Net Plant of Lessee, in each case on an unsecured subordinated basis on terms substantially similar to the terms set forth on Exhibit B and (iii) loans, in an aggregate principal amount not to exceed $10,000,000 at any time outstanding, made by InfraREIT Partners, LP or a subsidiary thereof to Lessee from time to time for the purpose of financing capital expenditures. For purposes of clauses (i) and (ii) of the preceding sentence, any Consolidated Qualified Lessees of Lessee will be treated as Lessee. In addition to the foregoing, Lessee may incur Indebtedness in an aggregate principal amount of up to the product of (x) Sharyland’s aggregate Consolidated Net Plant multiplied by (y) the lesser of (A) the sum of Sharyland’s then-current PUCT-regulated debt-to-equity ratio (expressed as a percentage) and five percent (5%) or (B) sixty-five percent (65%); provided, however, that such Indebtedness must be Non-Recourse Debt to Lessee. For purposes of this Section 4.7, Sharyland’s Consolidated Net Plant will be derived from its most recently prepared consolidated balance sheet, prepared in accordance with GAAP but adjusted to reverse the effects of failed sale-leaseback accounting in a manner reasonably determined by Sharyland in good faith. Without limiting the amount of Indebtedness permitted by the foregoing, Lessee may also incur Indebtedness (x) in the form of a pledge of equity interests in a subsidiary of Lessee as security for Non-Recourse Debt of such subsidiary and (y) in amounts otherwise permitted under the Debt Agreements.

4.8. Records. Lessee shall maintain proper books of record and account in conformity with GAAP and all applicable Regulatory Authorities and each other governmental agency or authority having legal or regulatory jurisdiction over Lessee. Additionally, Lessee shall maintain or cause to be maintained all logs, drawings, manuals, specifications and data and inspection, modification and maintenance records and other materials required to be maintained in respect of the Stanton Transmission Loop Assets by Applicable Laws or by Good Utility Practice. Lessee shall allow Lessor and its representatives to have reasonable access to, for at least five (5) years after the expiration of each Lease Year, the records referred to in this Section 4.8.

4.9. Surrender. Upon expiration of the Term or earlier termination of this Agreement in accordance with its terms (but subject to Section 2.2 and the requirements of all Applicable Laws), and in a manner calculated to avoid any disruption of electrical service, Lessee shall vacate and surrender possession of all components of the Stanton Transmission Loop Assets (other than Severable Footprint Projects) to Lessor, or to such other person or entity as Lessor may direct. At the time of such surrender, the Stanton Transmission Loop Assets shall be free and clear of Liens and other rights of third parties (other than Permitted Liens), and shall be in the same condition as on the Effective Date, ordinary wear and tear excepted. Lessee shall deliver or cause to be delivered to Lessor, or to such other person or entity as Lessor may direct, copies of all title documents, logs, drawings, manuals, specifications and data and inspection,

modification and maintenance records, billing records, reports and other documents in respect of the Stanton Transmission Loop Assets which are necessary to determine the condition of the Stanton Transmission Loop Assets or for the continued maintenance, repair or general operation of the Stanton Transmission Loop Assets and are in Lessee’s possession at such time. In connection with the surrender of the Stanton Transmission Loop Assets, Lessor shall pay to Lessee the aggregate purchase price for any property and equipment purchased by Lessor in accordance with Section 2.3.

(a) During the period after notice of termination and prior to the termination of the Agreement, with reasonable notice, Lessee will cooperate in all reasonable respects with the efforts of Lessor to sell or lease the Stanton Transmission Loop Assets (or any component thereof) or any interest therein, including, without limitation, permitting prospective purchasers or lessees to fully inspect the Stanton Transmission Loop Assets and any logs, drawings, manuals, specifications, data and maintenance records relating thereto; provided, that such cooperation shall not unreasonably interfere with the normal operation of the Stanton Transmission Loop Assets or cause Lessee to incur any additional expenses other than as specifically provided herein. All information obtained in connection with such inspection shall be subject to confidentiality requirements at least as restrictive as those contained in Section 13.3.

(b) Upon expiration of the Term or termination of this Agreement, Lessee shall continue to operate the Stanton Transmission Loop Assets pursuant to the terms of Section 2.2, if required thereunder. During such period Lessee shall perform all duties and retain all obligations under Article IV in all respects, as if the Term had not expired or this Agreement had not been terminated.

4.11. Lessee’s Authority. Lessee has all requisite power and authority to execute and deliver this Agreement and to perform its obligations hereunder. Lessee has taken all action necessary to execute and deliver this Agreement and to perform its obligations hereunder, and no other action or proceeding on the part of Lessee is necessary to authorize this Agreement. This Agreement constitutes the legally valid and binding obligation of Lessee, enforceable against Lessee in accordance with its terms, except as the enforceability thereof may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or similar Applicable Laws affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally and equitable principles.

4.12. Litigation. If Lessee becomes aware of any actions, claims or other legal or administrative proceedings that are pending, threatened or anticipated with respect to, or which could materially and adversely affect, the Stanton Transmission Loop Assets, Lessee shall promptly deliver notice thereof to Lessor.

4.13. Financing. Lessee acknowledges that Lessor has advised Lessee that the Stanton Transmission Loop Assets and this Agreement are security for the financings described below. In connection with such financings, SDTS made certain representations, warranties and covenants set forth in that certain (i) Amended and Restated Note Purchase Agreement entered into by SDTS and dated as of September 14, 2010 (as amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “2009 Note Purchase Agreement”), a copy of which has been provided to and reviewed by Lessee, (ii) Amended and Restated Note Purchase Agreement

Lessor shall assist and fully cooperate with Lessee, in complying with or obtaining any material land use permits and approvals, building permits, environmental impact reviews or any other approvals reasonably required for the maintenance or operation of the Stanton Transmission Loop Assets, including execution of applications for such approvals, and including participating in any appeals or regulatory proceedings respecting the Stanton Transmission Loop Assets at Lessee’s cost and expense, if requested by Lessee.

5.5. Hazardous Materials. Lessor shall conduct its activities in respect of the Stanton Transmission Loop Assets in compliance in all material respects with applicable Environmental Laws.

5.6. Litigation. If Lessor becomes aware of any actions, claims or other legal or administrative proceedings that are pending, threatened or anticipated with respect to, or which could materially and adversely affect, the Stanton Transmission Loop Assets, Lessor shall promptly deliver notice thereof to Lessee.

5.7. Records. Lessor shall maintain proper books of record and accounts in conformity with GAAP and all applicable Regulatory Authorities and each other governmental agency or authority having legal or regulatory jurisdiction over Lessor. Additionally, Lessor shall maintain or cause to be maintained all logs, drawings, manuals, specifications and data and inspection, modification and maintenance records and other materials required to be maintained in respect of the Stanton Transmission Loop Assets by Applicable Laws or by Good Utility Practice. Lessor shall provide quarterly estimates and other information necessary to allow Lessee to comply with Applicable Laws and by Good Utility Practice.

5.8. Limitation. EXCEPT AS EXPRESSLY REPRESENTED OTHERWISE IN THIS ARTICLE V, LESSOR (A) MAKES NO AND EXPRESSLY DISCLAIMS ANY REPRESENTATION OR WARRANTY, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, AS TO (I) TITLE TO THE STANTON TRANSMISSION LOOP ASSETS OR ANY PORTION THEREOF, (II) ANY ESTIMATES OF THE VALUE OF THE STANTON TRANSMISSION LOOP ASSETS OR FUTURE REVENUES THAT MIGHT BE GENERATED BY THE STANTON TRANSMISSION LOOP ASSETS, (III) THE MAINTENANCE, REPAIR, CONDITION, QUALITY, SUITABILITY, DESIGN OR MARKETABILITY OF THE STANTON TRANSMISSION LOOP ASSETS, (IV) INFRINGEMENT OF ANY INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHT OR (V) ANY OTHER MATERIALS OR INFORMATION THAT MAY HAVE BEEN MADE AVAILABLE OR COMMUNICATED TO LESSEE OR ITS AFFILIATES, OR ITS OR THEIR EMPLOYEES, AGENTS, CONSULTANTS, REPRESENTATIVES OR ADVISORS IN CONNECTION WITH THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED BY THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY DISCUSSION OR PRESENTATION RELATING THERETO, AND (B) FURTHER DISCLAIMS ANY REPRESENTATION OR WARRANTY, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE OR CONFORMITY TO MODELS OR SAMPLES OF MATERIALS OF ANY PORTION OF THE STANTON TRANSMISSION LOOP ASSETS, IT BEING EXPRESSLY UNDERSTOOD AND AGREED BY THE PARTIES HERETO THAT THE STANTON TRANSMISSION LOOP ASSETS ARE BEING LEASED “AS IS, WHERE IS,” WITH ALL FAULTS AND DEFECTS, AND THAT LESSEE HAS MADE OR CAUSED TO BE MADE SUCH INSPECTIONS AS LESSEE DEEMS APPROPRIATE.

(a) In the event of any damage or loss to any component of the Stanton Transmission Loop Assets, Lessee shall promptly repair or replace such component to the standards required by Section 4.1 (regardless of whether such repair or replacement constitutes a Repair or a Footprint Project). The cost of any such repair or replacement shall be borne as described in Section 6.1(b)-(c) below.

(b) If such repair or replacement constitutes a Repair, the cost of repairing or replacing such damage or loss, whether actually covered in whole or in part by insurance, shall be the responsibility of Lessee. Lessee shall be entitled to retain any insurance proceeds in excess of the amount necessary to repair or replace any component of the Stanton Transmission Loop Assets. Any Repair will immediately become part of the Stanton Transmission Loop Assets owned by Lessor.

(c) If such repair or replacement constitutes a Footprint Project, then it will be treated as a Footprint Project under the Stanton/Brady/Celeste Lease (initially), or another lease to which Lessor and Lessee are a party, and addressed pursuant to the terms thereof.

(d) Lessee shall be solely responsible for all costs of repairing or replacing any damaged property and equipment that is not part of the Stanton Transmission Loop Assets and owned by Lessee, whether covered by Lessee’s insurance under Section 6.2 or otherwise. Nothing in this provision shall preclude Lessee from seeking recovery of such costs in a rate proceeding at the PUCT.

6.2. Insurance. Lessee will maintain, with financially sound and reputable insurers, insurance with respect to its business and properties and the Stanton Transmission Loop Assets against such casualties and contingencies, of such types, on such terms and in such amounts (including deductibles, co-insurance and self-insurance, if adequate reserves are maintained with respect thereto) as is customary in the case of entities of established reputations engaged in the same or a similar business and similarly situated, but in no event less than the insurance set forth in this Section 6.2 and Exhibit C.

(a) Lessee shall procure at its own expense and maintain in full force and effect at all times throughout the term of this insurance policies with insurance companies rated A-, 8 or higher by A.M. Best or acceptable to Lessor if not so rated, and authorized to do business in the State of Texas.

(b) Lessor may at any time amend the requirements and approved insurance companies described in this Section 6.2 or Exhibit C due to (i) new information not previously known by Lessor prior to the date of this Agreement or (ii) changed circumstances after the date of this Agreement, which in the reasonable judgment of Lessor either renders a required coverage to be materially inadequate or materially reduces the financial ability of the approved insurance companies to pay claims.

(c) On the first Business Day of each year, and promptly at such other times as Lessor may reasonably request, Lessee shall furnish Lessor with approved certification of all required insurance. Such certification shall be executed by each insurer or by an authorized representative of each insurer where it is not practical for such insurer to execute the certificate itself. Such certification shall identify underwriters, the type of insurance, the insurance limits, and the policy term, and shall specifically list the special provisions enumerated for such insurance required by this Section 6.2. Upon request, Lessee will promptly furnish Lessor with copies of all insurance certificates, binders, and cover notes or other evidence of such insurance relating to the Stanton Transmission Loop Assets.

(d) Concurrently with the furnishing of the certification referred to in Section 6.2(c) and on an annual basis thereafter, Lessee shall furnish Lessor with a certificate, signed by an officer of Lessee, stating that all premiums then due have been paid and that the insurance then carried or to be renewed is in accordance with the terms of this Section 6.2 and Exhibit C.

(e) In the event Lessee fails to take out or maintain the full insurance coverage required by this Section 6.2 and Exhibit C, Lessor, upon thirty (30) days’ prior notice (unless the aforementioned insurance would lapse within such period, in which event notice should be given as soon as reasonably possible) to Lessee of any such failure, may (but shall not be obligated to) take out the required policies of insurance and pay the premiums on the same. All amounts so advanced thereof by Lessor shall become an additional obligation of Lessee to Lessor, and Lessee shall forthwith pay such amounts to Lessor.

(f) No provision of this Section 6.2 or Exhibit C or any other provision of this Agreement shall impose on Lessor any duty or obligation to verify the existence or adequacy of the insurance coverage maintained by Lessee, nor shall Lessor be responsible for any representations or warranties made by or on behalf of Lessee to any insurance company or underwriter.

7.1. Private Financing Arrangements. Lessee understands that Lessor, or an affiliate thereof, has raised equity and debt capital secured by the Stanton Transmission Loop Assets and this Agreement and that Lessor or its affiliates have reporting obligations in connection with such arrangements, including obligations to provide financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP, to prepare an annual strategic plan and to update such annual strategic plan in the event of certain material deviations therefrom. Lessee understands that Lessor relies on Lessee in order to comply with such obligations. From time to time, Lessor or an affiliate thereof may enter into additional arrangements that impose similar obligations. Accordingly, Lessee agrees to provide Lessor in a timely manner audited year-end financial statements, quarterly unaudited financial statements for the first three quarters of each year (certified by a financial officer of Lessee), and such acknowledgements, certificates, permits, licenses, instruments, documents and other information as Lessor may reasonably request from time to time in connection with, or to enable Lessor and its affiliates to comply with any such debt or equity financing arrangements or with Applicable Law. The Parties will negotiate in good faith the time frames during which Lessee will provide such information, with the intention that Lessee provide such information in

a manner that is not unduly burdensome but that also allows Lessor sufficient time to comply with its reporting obligations. Lessee will also cooperate with Lessor to enable Lessor to satisfy its obligations in respect of annual strategic plans, including providing Lessor with requested information in advance of the due date of such annual strategic plan and keeping Lessor apprised of deviations in capital expenditures, construction activity or revenues of Lessee from amounts that were originally provided by Lessee in preparing such annual strategic plan. Lessee agrees to use reasonable efforts to advise Lessor if Lessee will be unable to meet the reporting requirements set forth herein in a timely manner and to reasonably cooperate with Lessor to remedy the effects of such non-compliance.

(a) Lessee agrees to provide audited full-year and unaudited (but SAS 100 reviewed) interim financial statements and the consent of Lessee’s auditors to the inclusion of their opinion regarding such financial statements in filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission made by Lessor or an affiliate of Lessor. Lessor may also request that Lessee provide evidence of a SAS 100 review from Lessee’s auditors with respect to any unaudited interim financial statements included in any such filing. Lessor shall have the right to share any such financial statements with its lenders under the Debt Agreements. Lessee covenants that (i) such financial statements will fairly present in all material respects the financial condition, results of operations and cash flows of Lessee as of, and for, the periods presented, and (ii) Lessee will endeavor to cause such financial statements to comply with any applicable laws, rules or regulations that Lessee and Lessor conclude in good faith are applicable to such financial statements by virtue of their inclusion in the securities law filings of Lessor or an affiliate thereof.

(b) Lessee agrees that, in connection with any underwritten offering of the securities of Lessor or any affiliate thereof, Lessee will use commercially reasonable efforts to cause its auditors to provide a comfort letter (or its equivalent) to such underwriters, if requested by Lessor.

(c) Lessee agrees to cooperate with Lessor when Lessor or an affiliate provides estimates to analysts and or investors regarding Lessor’s expectations of its future operating results (including capital expenditures) and to cooperate with Lessor with respect to analysts and investors to the extent such expectations change in any material respect.

(d) Lessee and Lessor agree to reasonably cooperate to ensure that, to the extent they require information from the other party in order to prepare their financial statements, to obtain audits of those financial statements and, if required, of their internal control over financial reporting, to respond to comments of the Securities and Exchange Commission on such financial statements or statements related to internal control over financial reporting or disclosure controls and procedures, or to ensure the efficacy of their internal controls or disclosure controls and procedures, they will reasonably cooperate in order to ensure that each Party is able to meet its obligations in respect thereof. Lessee agrees to promptly notify Lessor of or provide to Lessor, as applicable, (i) any material communication, written or otherwise, submitted to the Lessee by its auditors, including, but not limited to an audit response letter, accountant’s management letter or other written report submitted to Lessee by its accountants or any governmental agency in connection with an annual or interim audit of Lessee’s books, (ii) any material correspondence with, reports of or reports to any Regulatory Authority with respect to the Stanton Transmission Loop Assets and (iii) any notices of violations of Applicable Law with respect to the Stanton Transmission Loop Assets, in each case taking into account the REIT’s reporting obligations as a public company.

(e) Lessor agrees to inform Lessee of the time periods in which each of the items identified in this Section 7.2 will be required, which may change. Lessee agrees to use reasonable efforts to advise Lessor if Lessee will be unable to meet the reporting requirements set forth herein in a timely manner and to reasonably cooperate with Lessor to remedy the effects of such non-compliance.

(f) If Lessor identifies additional matters with respect to which Lessee input, assistance or information is required in order for Lessor and its affiliates to comply with any applicable securities laws, the rules or regulations of any exchange on which the securities of such affiliate are traded or any similar laws, rules or regulations, the Parties agree to cooperate and negotiate in good faith in order to determine the manner in which Lessee can provide such input, assistance or information in a manner that positions Lessor and its affiliates to comply in a timely manner with such laws, rules or regulations, as efficiently as is feasible so as to minimize the burden that the provision of such input, assistance or information imposes on Lessee.

7.3. Mutual Obligations. Each Party shall as promptly as reasonably practicable furnish or cause to be furnished to the other Party, upon request from such Party, such information as may be required to enable such Party to file any reports required to be filed with any governmental or Regulatory Authority due to such Party’s ownership interest in or operation and control of the Stanton Transmission Loop Assets, as applicable.

This Agreement shall not be assignable by either Party, nor shall the Stanton Transmission Loop Assets or any part thereof be subleased by Lessee, except with the prior written consent of the other Party and the prior approval of any Regulatory Authority whose approval is required for the effectiveness of such assignment or sublease. For purposes of this Article VIII, an “assignment” by Lessee shall mean and include, in addition to any direct transfer by Lessee to a third party of all or any part of Lessee’s rights, estate or interests under this Agreement, any direct or indirect, voluntary or involuntary transfer of or encumbrance on all or any part of Lessee’s rights, estate or interests under this Agreement (i) by operation of law and/or (ii) by direct or collateral transfer of all or any part of the legal or beneficial ownership interest in Lessee by merger, consolidation or otherwise, provided, in the case of clause (ii), any such transaction or transactions will only constitute an assignment hereunder to the extent they result in a Change of Control. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Lessor shall have the right, without Lessee’s consent but subject to obtaining regulatory approval as described in the foregoing sentence, (a) to assign, pledge or grant a security interest in any or all of its interest in this Agreement to a lender or lenders, or a trustee acting on behalf of such lenders, in connection with a financing or refinancing in which such interest is pledged as collateral, and Lessee agrees to enter into such acknowledgments and agreements in respect thereof as the Lessor may reasonably request and (b) to assign its interest in this Agreement to a successor owner of the Stanton Transmission Loop Assets.

9.1. Lessee Default. Subject to Section 9.3, Lessee shall be in default in the event of any of the following:

(a) Except as provided in Section 9.1(g), Lessee’s failure to make any payment of Rent when due;

(b) Lessee (i) is generally not paying, or admits in writing its inability to pay, its debts as they become due, (ii) files, or consents by answer or otherwise to the filing against it of, a petition for relief or reorganization or arrangement or any other petition in bankruptcy, for liquidation or to take advantage of any bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or other similar law of any jurisdiction, (iii) makes an assignment for the benefit of its creditors, (iv) consents to the appointment of a custodian, receiver, trustee or other officer with similar powers with respect to it or with respect to any substantial part of its property, (v) is adjudicated as insolvent or to be liquidated, or (vi) takes company action for the purpose of any of the foregoing;

(c) A court or a Regulatory Authority or other governmental agency of competent jurisdiction enters an order appointing, without consent by Lessee, a custodian, receiver, trustee or other officer with similar powers with respect to it or with respect to any substantial part of its property, or constituting an order for relief or approving a petition for relief or reorganization or any other petition in bankruptcy or for liquidation or to take advantage of any bankruptcy or insolvency law of any jurisdiction, or ordering the dissolution, winding-up or liquidation of Lessee or any such petition shall be filed against Lessee and such petition shall not be dismissed within 90 days;

(d) Any representation or warranty made by Lessee herein shall prove to have been inaccurate in any material respect at the time made;

(e) A final judgment or judgments for the payment of money aggregating in excess of $1,000,000 are rendered against Lessee and which judgments are not, within 60 days after entry thereof, bonded, discharged or stayed pending appeal, or are not discharged within 60 days after the expiration of such stay;

(f) Lessee shall have breached or failed to comply in any material respect with any other covenant or agreement contained herein; or

(g) Notwithstanding Section 9.1(a), Lessee’s failure to pay Rent when due shall not constitute a default if (i) such failure is due to unforeseeable circumstances arising from a physical event beyond the control of the Lessee, including the incurrence of costs and expenditures as a result of such an event that are materially in excess of budgeted costs and expenditures or an unforeseen material decline in electricity usage as a result of such an event and (ii) such failure is cured within ninety (90) days after the date such rent was due through Lessee’s payment of the entire amount of such unpaid Rent, plus interest thereon at a rate equal to six percent (6%) per annum or the maximum rate allowed by law, whichever is lesser, from the date such Rent was originally due until the date of payment.

9.2. Lessor Default. Subject to Section 9.3, Lessor shall be in default in the event any representation or warranty made by Lessor herein shall prove to have been inaccurate in any material respect at the time made, or in the event Lessor breaches or fails to comply in any material respect with any covenant or agreement contained herein.

9.3. Right to Cure. If a Party (the “Defaulting Party”) defaults pursuant to an Event of Default, such Defaulting Party shall not be in default of the terms of this Agreement if (other than in the event of a default described in Sections 9.1(a), 9.1(b) and/or 9.1(c) above), (a) in the case of a Monetary Default, the Defaulting Party pays the past due amount within thirty (30) days of receiving a Notice of Default from the other Party (the “Non-Defaulting Party”), and (b) in the case of a Non-Monetary Default, the Event of Default is cured within forty-five (45) days of receiving the Notice of Default; provided, that if the nature of the Non-Monetary Default requires, in the exercise of commercially reasonable diligence, more than forty-five (45) days to cure then the Defaulting Party shall not be in default as long as it commences performance of the cure within forty-five (45) days and thereafter completes such cure with commercially reasonable diligence.

(a) Should an Event of Default remain uncured by the Defaulting Party, the Non-Defaulting Party shall have and shall be entitled to exercise the remedies provided in this Section 9.4 and any and all other remedies available to it at law or in equity, all of which remedies shall be cumulative; provided, that the exercise of any remedies hereunder shall be subject to the PUCT and other required regulatory approvals to the extent applicable.

(b) In no way limiting the provisions of Section 9.4(a), in the case of an Event of Default of Lessee, Lessor shall have the right to (i) terminate the Agreement upon notice to Lessee, and recover from Lessee all damages to which Lessor is entitled under Applicable Laws, (ii) terminate Lessee’s right to use and operate the Stanton Transmission Loop Assets while keeping this Agreement in effect, and recover from Lessee all damages to which Lessor is entitled under Applicable Laws, and (iii) take reasonable action to cure Lessee’s default at Lessee’s expense; provided, that in the event of a violation of Applicable Laws by Lessee, an emergency or government or regulatory action in respect of which Lessor, in its reasonable discretion, determines immediate action is necessary, Lessor shall have the right to step in and take such action on behalf of Lessee at Lessee’s cost and expense immediately upon giving notice to Lessee, notwithstanding any applicable cure period.

(c) Any amounts recovered by Lessor from Lessee in the event of a default shall, to the maximum extent permissible under Applicable Laws, be deemed to be in respect of past or future Rent owing under this Agreement.

Lessor shall not have any obligation to make Capital Expenditures for Footprint Projects to the Stanton Transmission Loop Assets under this Agreement. Capital Expenditures for Footprint Projects to the Stanton Transmission Loop Assets shall be covered by the Stanton/Brady/Celeste Lease (initially), or another lease to which Lessor and Lessee are party.

11.1. Jurisdiction. The Parties recognize that (i) the Stanton Transmission Loop Assets and the operation thereof are subject to the jurisdiction of the PUCT and to certain reliability and safety requirements of ERCOT, TRE and NERC, and (ii) Lessee holds a CCN for operation of the Stanton Transmission Loop Assets. The Parties agree that, as the lessee hereunder, as operator of the Stanton Transmission Loop Assets and as the holder of the CCN, Lessee shall be responsible for compliance with all regulatory requirements related to the Stanton Transmission Loop Assets, including but not limited to, taking all actions reasonably necessary or advisable to comply with such requirements; preparing and filing all necessary notices, reports, applications, and other materials with the PUCT, ERCOT, TRE and NERC; and initiating, prosecuting, defending or participating in any administrative or judicial proceeding reasonably necessary or advisable to operate the Stanton Transmission Loop Assets in an economical and efficient manner. Lessee shall consult with Lessor prior to initiating any rate proceeding with the PUCT to change the rates Lessee can lawfully charge, provided that, with or without Lessor consent, Lessee shall be authorized to initiate any such rate proceeding. Upon Lessor’s request, Lessee shall file a rate proceeding before the PUCT; provided that, Lessor shall be responsible for reimbursing Lessee for all costs associated with prosecution of such proceeding to the extent that such costs are not recoverable in Lessee’s PUCT-approved rates.

11.2. Cooperation. The Parties agree that during the term of this Agreement they will cooperate to assure compliance with all applicable regulations, orders or lawful requests of any governmental or Regulatory Authorities that relate to the Stanton Transmission Loop Assets and Lessee’s obligations as the holder of the CCN and will provide such information to such governmental and Regulatory Authorities as the other Party or such governmental or Regulatory Authorities may reasonably request in connection therewith. Lessor further agrees to use its best efforts to cooperate and promptly respond to any lawful requests from Lessee relating to Lessee’s efforts to comply with all regulatory requirements or to participate in any necessary or advisable legal proceedings, whether judicial or administrative. Each Party shall bear its own costs in complying with this paragraph.

12.1. General Indemnity. EACH PARTY (THE “INDEMNIFYING PARTY”) SHALL DEFEND, INDEMNIFY AND HOLD HARMLESS THE OTHER PARTY AND THE OTHER PARTY’S RELATED PERSONS (EACH, AN “INDEMNIFIED PARTY”) FROM AND AGAINST ANY AND ALL CLAIMS, LITIGATION, ACTIONS, PROCEEDINGS, LOSSES, DAMAGES, LIABILITIES, OBLIGATIONS, COSTS AND EXPENSES, INCLUDING

13.5. Rent Obligations Not Excused by Force Majeure, Etc.. Lessee shall not be excused from its obligation to pay Rent during any Force Majeure Event or a condemnation or casualty of all or any part of the Stanton Transmission Loop Assets.

(a) Each Party will, from time to time, execute, cause to be acknowledged and deliver such documents or instruments, and provide such certificates, as the other Party may reasonably request to carry out and fulfill the transactions, and permit the exercise and performance of the rights and obligations, as are contemplated hereunder. Each Party will cooperate with the other Party to effectuate fully the purposes and intent of this Agreement. In no way limiting the foregoing, the Parties shall cooperate to obtain any necessary regulatory approvals, including, without limitation, providing timely responses to discovery requests, participating in regulatory proceedings to the extent necessary and generally providing assistance as required.

(b) From time to time, the Parties shall agree to policies and procedures regarding matters arising under this Agreement including, without limitation, each Party’s reporting obligations and such additional matters as the Parties may identify (the “Policies and Procedures”). The Parties agree to cooperate and negotiate in good faith the Policies and Procedures, and any amendment or revision thereto that may be reasonably requested by either Party, and to memorialize the same in a writing executed by a representative of each Party. In the event the Parties cannot agree on the terms of such Policies and Procedures after 60 days of negotiating in good faith, then either the Lessee or the Lessor may submit such matters to arbitration pursuant to Section 13.7 of this Agreement, pursuant to which the Arbitration Panel shall be empowered to determine Policies and Procedures that take into account the REIT’s reporting obligations as a public company and Lessee’s obligations as a regulated utility.

13.7. Arbitration. Except for a dispute regarding the payment of Undisputed Rent, any dispute under this Agreement shall, if not resolved by the Parties within ninety (90) days after notice of such dispute is served by one Party to the other (or, if different, the period provided for resolution by the Parties in the provision of this Agreement under which such dispute is brought), be submitted to an “Arbitration Panel” comprised of three (3) members. No more than one (1) panel member may be with the same firm, and no panel member may have an economic interest in the outcome of the arbitration. In addition to the foregoing, the failure by the Lessee and the Lessor to reach an agreement or make a mutual determination or characterization required by Section 2.2(b) (with respect to the determination of Extended Period Rent) or 13.6(b) (with respect to the determination of the Policies and Procedures) after 60 days of negotiating in good faith, shall be deemed to be a “dispute” for purposes of this Section 13.7, to be resolved in accordance with this Section.

(a) The Arbitration Panel shall be selected as follows: Within five (5) Business Days after the expiration of the period referenced above, Lessee shall select its panel member meeting the criteria of the above paragraph (the “Lessee Panel Member”) and Lessor shall select its panel member meeting the criteria of the above paragraph (the “Lessor Panel Member”). If a Party fails to timely select its respective panel member, the other Party may notify such Party in writing of such failure, and if such Party fails to select its respective panel member within three (3) Business Days from such notice, then the other Party may select such panel member on such Party’s behalf. Within five (5) Business Days after the selection of the Lessor Panel Member and the Lessee Panel Member, the Lessee Panel Member and the Lessor Panel Member shall jointly select a third panel member meeting the criteria of the above paragraph (the “Third Panel Member”). If the Lessor Panel Member and the Lessee Panel Member fail to timely select the Third Panel Member and such failure continues for more than three (3) Business Days after written notice of such failure is delivered to the Lessor Panel Member and Lessee Panel Member by either Lessor or Lessee, either Lessor or Lessee may request the managing officer of the American Arbitration Association to appoint the Third Panel Member.

(b) Within ten (10) Business Days after the selection of the Arbitration Panel, each Party shall submit to the Arbitration Panel a written statement identifying its summary of the issues and claims, including, if applicable, its calculation of Rent. Any Party may also request an evidentiary hearing on the merits in addition to the submission of written statements. The Arbitration Panel shall make its decision within twenty (20) days after the later of (i) submission of such written statements of particulars and (ii) the conclusion of any evidentiary hearing on the merits, and shall take into consideration the relative risks and rewards undertaken and capital invested by each Party and shall use the Comparable Rate of Return concept described in Section 3.2(a) of the McAllen Lease in determining any Rent disputes.
