7.2 Termination Because of Governmental or Judicial Acts.

If any term or provision of this Agreement (other than the provisions in this ARTICLE 7 dealing with termination as a result of bankruptcy or insolvency) should be declared invalid or unenforceable by a court of competent jurisdiction or by other governmental or regulatory action, policy or order, and if performance of material obligations hereof by either Party is thereby prohibited or substantially impaired by any such action, policy or order (including, without limitation, any action, policy or order to the effect that the execution or performance of this Agreement will result in modification or transfer of any of the Operating Licenses), the Parties agree that, to the extent practical, they will renegotiate this Agreement in good faith to permit this Agreement to be performed or the terms to be implemented as close as possible to the original intent in a manner that will be consistent with the relevant action, policy or order. However, if such renegotiation is not possible or practical, or if the Parties cannot reach agreement on the terms of the revised agreement, either Party may terminate this Agreement by providing the other Party written notice of termination in which case this agreement shall terminate upon expiration of the Transition Period or such shorter period for the effective date of termination as may be required by law. In the event of termination pursuant to this Section 7.2, neither Party shall have further obligations hereunder except as expressly provided otherwise in this Agreement.

7.3 Termination for Cause.

Either Party may by written notice terminate this Agreement for cause for the following reasons:

(a) Failure by the other Party to make a payment that is due and payable which failure is not remedied within 30 days of receiving notice thereof;

(b) Breach of any nonpayment obligations under this Agreement in any material respect which breach is not cured to the satisfaction of the non-breaching Party within 30 days of receiving notice thereof;

(c) Breach by the other Party of its representations or warranties which breach is not cured to the satisfaction of the non-breaching Party within 30 days of receiving notice thereof;

(d) Commencement of voluntary or involuntary bankruptcy, insolvency or similar proceeding by or against the other Party which proceeding is not dismissed within 60 days of its commencement or the appointment of a receiver or trustee for either Party or a substantial part of its assets, if such receiver or trustee is not discharged within 60 days.

If a notice of termination is sent pursuant to subsection (a), this Agreement shall terminate immediately upon receipt of such notice. If a notice of termination is sent pursuant to subsection (b), (c), or (d) following expiration of the applicable cure period, this Agreement shall terminate upon the expiration of the Transition Period.

7.4 Termination Resulting From Compliance Event.

(a) ESI may terminate this Agreement for cause as provided in this section if (i) Management Personnel recommend to EquaGen a corrective action within the professional area of responsibility of such Management Personnel consistent with Good Utility Practices, Applicable Laws, and Applicable Permits, and regarding identified deficiencies likely to result in specific and identified material adverse consequences to a Facility or its operations; and (ii) EquaGen acts or fails to take reasonable actions in a manner that (A) constitutes Willful Misconduct or Gross Negligence, (B) violates Applicable Laws or Applicable Permits, and (C) results in an immediate threat of (1) injury to persons or (2) criminal sanctions.

(b) If a cause for termination as defined in subsection (a) above has occurred (a “Compliance Event”), ESI shall provide written notice to EquaGen specifying its basis for belief that such Compliance Event has occurred and that ESI intends to terminate this Agreement, unless the Compliance Event is cured within 30 days of the written notice of intent to terminate. If after such 30-day cure period the Compliance Event has not been corrected, or if the Parties agree in writing that a longer period of time will be allowed in order to allow the Compliance Event to be corrected and the Compliance Event is not so corrected within such longer period of time, then ESI may thereafter terminate this Agreement for cause by sending a notice of termination and without payment of any termination charge. Such termination shall take effect upon the expiration of the Transition Period or at such earlier point in time as may be agreed by the Parties. A dispute by EquaGen of ESI’s determination that a Compliance Event has occurred may be instituted by EquaGen pursuant

to ARTICLE 14, but such dispute shall not delay ESI’s right to terminate as provided herein; nor will such termination of the Agreement preclude a determination that such termination was wrongful or other resolution of the dispute pursuant to ARTICLE 14.

7.5 Reduction of Services; Termination for Convenience.

(a) EquaGen shall have the right for its own convenience and upon six months’ written notice to reduce or cease taking specific Support Services provided by ESI. ESI shall not have any obligation to recommence providing such Support Services once they have been terminated by EquaGen.

(b) EquaGen shall have the right for its own convenience upon written notice to terminate this Agreement in its entirety. In such instances this Agreement shall terminate after the completion of the Transition Period.

7.6 Non-Exclusive Remedy.

If either Party provides a notice of termination to the other under this ARTICLE 7, all provisions of this Agreement, and all rights and obligations of the Parties hereunder, will continue in full force and effect from and after the date of the notice of termination until the effective date of termination, including any right, remedy or liability resulting from nonperformance or other breach of the Agreement that occurs prior to the effective date of termination. The rights to terminate set out in this ARTICLE 7 are in addition to any other right or remedy provided under this Agreement, or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or by statute, and the exercise of said rights shall not be deemed as a waiver or relinquishment by the terminating Party of any of its other rights, or remedies, including any right to recover damages for any breach of this Agreement or for any unperformed balance, subject to the limitations in ARTICLE 10. Any dispute regarding grounds for termination and the application of this ARTICLE 7 or for damages recoverable as a result of a breach of this Agreement shall be subject to ARTICLE 14, regardless of whether the dispute is instituted prior or subsequent to the effective date of termination. Further to the foregoing:

(a) EquaGen shall pay ESI for Support Services provided prior to the termination date;

(b) In the event of a reduction in Support Services or a termination of this Agreement by EquaGen for convenience, EquaGen shall reimburse ESI for all reasonable demobilization costs actually incurred by ESI as a result of such reduction up to an amount not to exceed $ . ESI shall use all reasonable efforts to minimize the incurrence of such demobilization costs. For the avoidance of doubt, reasonable demobilization costs shall include those types of costs specified on Exhibit F;

(c) If either Party terminates for cause, the terminating Party shall have no liability to the other Party upon termination, except for the payments set forth in (a) above; in addition, the terminating Party shall have the right to recover damages for any breach of the Agreement or for any unperformed balance, subject to the limitations on liability set forth in the Agreement; and

(d) If either Party terminates pursuant to Section 7.2 neither Party shall have any liability to the other Party upon termination, except for the payments set forth in (a) above.

ARTICLE 8
FORCE MAJEURE

8.1 Effect of Force Majeure.

(a) As used in this ARTICLE 8, the term “Force Majeure” shall mean any cause or causes not reasonably within the control of a Party, occurring without the fault or negligence of such Party, and the effects of which could not have been avoided by such Party through the exercise of reasonable diligence, including, without limitation by enumeration, acts of God, acts of the public enemy, inability to obtain or renew a necessary license, permit or approval, acts of military authorities, acts of local, state or federal agencies or regulatory bodies (including acts mandating the termination or delay of performance under this Agreement), court actions, arrests or restraints.

(b) If because of Force Majeure, a Party is unable to carry out its obligations (other than the obligation to make a payment) as provided for pursuant to this Agreement, and upon such Party giving written notice to the other Party of such Force Majeure, then such Party’s obligation to perform shall be suspended from and after the date of the notice to the extent made necessary by such Force Majeure and during its continuance. The notice shall specify the nature of the Force Majeure, the obligation which such Party is unable to perform or furnish due to Force Majeure, and such Party’s best estimate of the probable duration of the Force Majeure.

ARTICLE 10
LIMITATIONS ON LIABILITY, FIDUCIARY DUTIES AND INDEMNIFICATION

10.1 Warranty.

ESI warrants to EquaGen that the Support Services will be performed in a professional, diligent, timely and thorough manner consistent with Good Utility Practices, Applicable Laws, Applicable Permits, Applicable EquaGen Policies and this Agreement.

10.2 Remedy.

If ESI breaches the warranty provided in Section 10.1, EquaGen may at its option require ESI to correct or re-perform such services at ESI’s sole cost; provided that the cost of such correction or re-performance to be borne by ESI shall be capped at the total of net payments for Support Services received by ESI during the six-month period preceding the event giving rise to correction or re-performance, and any additional cost shall be borne by EquaGen. EquaGen’s right to require such correction or re-performance, and any liability under ESI’s indemnification obligations, shall be the exclusive remedies available to EquaGen where EquaGen is not enforcing its rights, if any, to terminate this Agreement, and shall be in lieu of any claim for monetary damages.

10.3 Indemnity.

(a) ESI indemnifies EquaGen, including its subsidiaries, personnel, officers, directors, employees and agents (“Indemnified Party”) for all claims, expenses (including reasonable attorney’s fees), losses, liabilities, or damages of any kind whatsoever brought by ESI’s own employees or contractors providing services on ESI’s behalf (including employment and benefit claims) that arise out of services provided by ESI pursuant to this Agreement, except (i) in instances covered by insurance obtained by EquaGen but only to the extent of coverage by such insurance; and (ii) instances involving discrimination, harassment, defamation or other intentional torts by an Indemnified Party.

(b) ESI indemnifies each Indemnified Party for all claims by the Indemnified Party arising out of ESI’s wrongful termination of this Agreement or acts or omissions of ESI’s own employees, subsidiaries or contractors providing services on ESI’s behalf that constitute Willful Misconduct or Gross Negligence. This indemnity excludes claims arising out of nuclear incidents or nuclear energy hazards and is capped at the total of net payments for services received by ESI from EquaGen during the six-month period preceding the event giving rise to indemnification.

10.4 Defense of Indemnified Claims.

(a) If either EquaGen or any other person entitled to indemnification pursuant to any indemnification covenant contained in this Agreement (an “Indemnitee”) receives notice of any claim, or of the commencement of any action or proceeding with respect to which ESI is obligated to provide indemnification, the Indemnitee shall promptly give ESI written notice of such claim, action or proceeding. The notice shall specify, if known, the amount or an estimate of the amount of liability arising from the claim, action or proceeding.

(b) The Indemnitee shall permit ESI to assume the defense of any such claim, action or proceeding; provided that counsel for ESI, who shall conduct the defense of the claim, action or proceeding, shall be approved by the Indemnitee, whose approval shall not be unreasonably withheld. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (i) if the Indemnitee reasonably determines that there may be a conflict between the positions of ESI and the Indemnitee in connection with the claim, action, or proceeding, or that there may be legal defenses available to the Indemnitee different from or in addition to those available to ESI, then counsel for the Indemnitee shall be entitled to conduct a defense to the extent reasonably necessary to protect the interests of the Indemnitee, and (ii) in any event, the Indemnitee shall be entitled, at its own cost and expense, to have Indemnitee’s counsel participate in, though not conduct, the defense.

(c) ESI shall not, except with the consent of each Indemnitee, consent to the entry of any judgment, or enter into any settlement that does not include as an unconditional term the giving by the claimant or plaintiff to the Indemnitee a release from all liability in respect of the claim, action or proceeding. The Indemnitee shall not settle or compromise any claim, action or proceeding for which it asserts a right to indemnification without the prior written consent of ESI, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld.

10.5 Survival.

The provisions of this ARTICLE 10 shall specifically survive the expiration or termination of this Agreement for any reason.

10.6 Disclaimer of Warranties; Manufacturers’ Warranties.

EXCEPT AS EXPRESSLY PROVIDED IN THIS AGREEMENT, NO WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, WHETHER STATUTORY, WRITTEN, ORAL OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, SHALL APPLY TO SUPPORT SERVICES PERFORMED HEREUNDER.

10.7 Limitation of Liability.

Neither Party, nor any of its agents, subcontractors, representatives, employees, officers, or directors, shall be liable under this Agreement to the other Party, or the other Party’s agents, subcontractors, or customers, for any indirect, special, punitive, incidental or consequential damages, including, without limitation, (1) loss of profits or business opportunities, (2) damages suffered as a result of the loss of the use of the Facilities or equipment, (3) cost of purchased or replacement power (including any differential in fuel costs), (4) cost of capital, (5) damage to reputation, (6) damage to credit worthiness or credit standing, or (7) diminution of stock price or value, with respect to any claim based on or in any way connected with this Agreement, whether arising in contract (including, without limitation, breach of warranty), tort (including, without limitation, negligence, strict liability or breach of fiduciary duty), under the laws of real property,

DISPUTE RESOLUTION

14.1 Voluntary Resolution.

In order to avoid contentious litigation and to resolve any disputes as amicably as possible, the Parties agree that any dispute arising out of or relating to this Agreement that cannot be resolved between the Parties, whether in contract, tort, under statutory law, or otherwise, shall be resolved either (i) through discussion between the chief executive officers of the Parties (ii), voluntary non-binding mediation pursuant to Section 14.2 below, or other mutually agreed alternative dispute resolution methods, or (iii) failing resolution through steps (i)

and (ii), by litigation. Either Party may commence the process of dispute resolution by written notice to the other of the matter in dispute and providing a written description of the Party’s position with respect to the dispute. In the next 30 days following such notice, the officers described above, or their designees, shall use their best efforts to resolve the dispute. If, however, the Parties are unable to reach agreement after using their best and good faith efforts to resolve the dispute within such 30-day period or such additional period as the Parties may agree, then either Party may initiate non-binding mediation proceedings in accordance with Section 14.2.

14.2 Mediation.

Either Party may notify the other Party that it desires to commence non-binding mediation following exhaustion of the executive resolution process described in Section 14.1 in accordance with the Model Procedure for Mediation of Business Disputes of the Center for Public Resources (CPR). The Parties will jointly appoint a mutually acceptable, independent and qualified mediator, who shall never have previously provided services to either of the Parties. The notice shall contain the name of one or more proposed independent, experienced mediators and a statement of the matter in dispute, including any remedies sought. The Party receiving such notice shall have 15 days to respond in writing, agreeing to a proposed mediator or proposing an alternate, independent mediator and designating any other matter for arbitration. If the Parties fail to mutually agree upon an independent, experienced mediator within 30 days after the response was received, the mediator shall be selected with assistance from the CPR. The selected mediator shall sign an engagement letter or agreement with both Parties explaining the scope of the mediation services to be performed and obligating ESI and EquaGen to share equally the mediator’s fees and expenses. The Parties agree to participate in good faith negotiations and mediation with the mediator for a period of at least 60 days after the mediation agreement has been executed and to schedule within 30 days from the date of execution of the mediation agreement with the mediator at least one meeting among both Parties and the mediator, at which meeting both Parties shall be entitled to present their positions and receive advice from the mediator.

14.3 Location.

Each Party shall pay its own costs incurred in connection with mediation proceedings, except for the fees and expenses of the arbitrator, which shall be equally divided between the Parties.

If the Parties are not successful in resolving the dispute though mediation, then after the sixty-day mediation period, either Party may seek an adjudicated resolution through an appropriate court in the State of Delaware having jurisdiction.

14.6 Ongoing Duties and Rights.

During the pendency of any alternative dispute resolution process pursuant to Section 14.1 or any mediation or litigation proceeding pursuant to this ARTICLE 14, the Parties shall continue otherwise to perform their obligations under this Agreement. However, the commencement or pendency of such alternative dispute resolution processes or litigation proceedings shall not limit or suspend the availability of any other rights or remedies of the Parties under this Agreement, including, without limitation, the termination provisions of ARTICLE 7. In the event EquaGen disputes the amount of a bill for Support Services rendered by ESI, EquaGen shall pay such bill on a timely basis in accordance with Section 5.2 but such payment shall be subject to refund of any amounts incorrectly billed plus interest from the date of payment as may be determined pursuant to the dispute resolution provisions of this ARTICLE 14.
