Definitions and Interpretation: Unless otherwise defined or required by the context in which any term appears: (a) the singular includes the plural and vice versa; (b) the words "herein," "hereof' and "hereunder" refer to this Agreement as a whole and not to any particular section or subsection of this Agreement; (c) references to any agreement, document or instrument mean such agreement, document or instrument as amended, modified, supplemented or replaced from time to time; and (d) the words "include," "includes" and "including" mean include, includes and including "without limitation." The captions or headings in this Agreement are strictly for convenience and shall not be considered in interpreting this Agreement. 2. Purchase and Sale of Electricitv. Purchaser shall purchase from Seller, and Seller shall sell to Purchaser, all of the electric energy generated by the System (the "Energy") for each Contract Year during the Initial Term and any Additional Term (as defined in Exhibit I. and collectively the "Term"), up to 110% of Expected Contract Quantity for each Contract Year set forth on Exhibit 2. Purchaser shall have the option, but not the obligation, to purchase the Energy in excess of 110% of the Expected Contract Quantity. Seller will first offer any Energy beyond the 110% cap to Purchaser and, only if Purchaser does not exercise its option to purchase all or a portion of such excess Energy, Seller shall be permitted to resell the excess Energy, provided such sale is in accordance with all applicable laws. Energy generated by the System will be delivered to Purchaser at the delivery point identified on Exhibit 2 (the "Delivery Point"). Purchaser shall take title to the Energy at the Delivery Point, and risk of loss will pass from Seller to Purchaser at the Delivery Point. Purchaser may purchase electric energy for the Facility from other sources if Purchaser's electric requirements at the Facility exceed the Energy generated by the System. Any delivery of Energy prior to the Commercial Operation Date shall be treated as limited amounts of test energy only and shall not indicate that the System has been put in commercial operation, and Purchaser shall not be under obligation to pay for such test energy. Seller shall deliver to Purchaser the Energy at the Delivery Point free and clear of all liens, security interests, claims and encumbrances or any interest therein or thereto, by any person. For the avoidance of doubt, Seller's obligation to deliver Energy unencumbered shall not in any way affect Seller's ability to grant a security interest in or otherwise encumber the System in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. "Contract Year" means the twelve month period beginning at 12:00 AM on the Commercial Operation Date or on any anniversary of the Commercial Operation Date and ending at 11:59 PM on the day immediately preceding the next anniversary of the Commercial Operation Date, provided that the first Contract Year shall begin on the Commercial Operation Date. 3. Term and Termination. a. Initial Term. The initial term ("Initial Term") of this Agreement shall commence on the Commercial Operation Date (as defined below) and continue for the length of time specified in Exhibit 1, unless earlier terminated as provided for in this Agreement. Following Purchaser's inspections pursuant to Section 7(c)(iii) below, the "Commercial Operation Date" is the date Seller gives Purchaser written notice that the System is mechanically complete and capable of providing electric energy to the Delivery Point. Such notice shall be deemed effective unless Purchaser reasonably objects within five (5) business days of the date of receipt of such notice. Upon submittal of the notice, Seller will give Purchaser copies of certificates of completion or similar documentation from Seller's contractor, including signed Building Inspection card, and the interconnection or similar agreement with the entity authorized and required under applicable law to provide electric distribution service to Purchaser at the Facility (the "Utility"), as set forth on Exhibit 2. The notice shall also include commissioning test results. This Agreement is effective as of the Effective Date and, subject to the provisions of Section 18 below, Purchaser's failure to enable Seller to provide the electric energy by preventing it from installing the System or otherwise not performing under this Agreement shall not excuse Purchaser's obligations to make payments that otherwise would have been due under this Agreement. b. Additional Terms. Prior to the end of the Initial Term or of any applicable .Additional Term, as defined below, if Purchaser has not exercised its option to purchase the System, Purchaser may give Seller written notice of its desire to extend this Agreement on the terms and conditions set forth herein for the number and length of additional periods specified in Exhibit 1 (each such additional period, an "Additional Term"). Such notice shall be given, if at all, not more than three hundred sixty five (365) days and not less than ninety (90) days before the last day of the Initial Term or the then current Additional Term, as applicable. If Purchaser delivers such notice, the Parties shall promptly meet and confer to discuss and agree upon the (i) Expected Contract Quantity, (ii) Contract Price for VV\Rehecca',Sustaietabilit}`,Solar Installation\city council 07 21 2014\Attacduncnt 2 - PPA Form.doc' 7;8/14 30305'4351900.14 ATTACHMENT 2 Contract Years 2-5 of the Additional Term and (iii) Termination Payment applicable for each Contract Year of such Additional Term. The Parties agree that the Contract Price applicable during the first Contract Year of any Additional Term shall be the same as the Contract Price in effect during the last Contract Year of the Initial Term or prior Additional Term, as applicable. If Seller and Purchaser successfully agree on such terms within sixty (60) days of the date such notice is delivered by Purchaser, Purchaser and Seller shall enter into an amendment to this Agreement which shall state the mutually agreed upon Expected Output Quantity, Contract Price and Termination Payment applicable for each Contract Year of the Additional Term and confirm that all other terms of this Agreement shall continue unchanged in full force and effect. If the Parties are unable to agree on such terms during such sixty (60) day period despite the Parties good faith efforts to reach agreement, Seller shall be deemed to have rejected the offer for an Additional Term. The Additional Term shall begin immediately upon the conclusion of the Initial Term or the then current term and this Agreement shall terminate at the end of the Initial Term (if the same has not been extended) or the then current Additional Term. C. Termination. Prior to Commencement of Construction.

OwnershiD; Option to Purchase. a. Ownership of Svstem. Throughout the Term, Seller shall be the legal and beneficial owner of the System at all times (excluding all Environmental Attributes), and the System shall remain the personal property of Seller and shall not attach to or be deemed a part of, or fixture to, the Facility or the Premises. Each of Seller and Purchaser agree that Seller (or the designated assignee of Seller permitted under Section 19) is the tax owner of the System and all tax and accounting filings and reports will be filed in a manner consistent with this Agreement. It is the intent of Seller and Purchaser that the System shall at all times retain the legal status of personal property as defined under Article 9 of the Uniform Commercial Code and shall not be characterized, considered or deemed a fixture or affixed to or a part of the Facility or the Premises. If there is any mortgage or fixture filing against the Premises which could reasonably be construed as prospectively attaching to the System as a fixture of the Premises, Purchaser shall, at Seller's cost, use commercially reasonable efforts to provide a disclaimer or release from such lienholder upon Seller's written request. If Purchaser is the fee owner of the Premises, Purchaser consents to the filing of a disclaimer of the System as a fixture of the Premises in the County office where real estate records are customarily filed in the jurisdiction where the Facility is located. If Purchaser is not the fee owner, Purchaser, at Seller's cost, will use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain such consent from such owner. With respect to any financing or refinancing of the System entered into by Seller after the Conditions Satisfaction Date, upon request, Purchaser agrees, at Seller's cost, to use commercially reasonable efforts to deliver to Seller a non -disturbance agreement in a form reasonably acceptable to Seller from the owner of the Facility (if the Facility is leased by Purchaser), any mortgagee with a lien on the Premises, and other Persons holding a similar interest in the Premises. To the extent that Purchaser does not own the Premises or Facility, Purchaser shall provide to Seller immediate written notice of receipt of notice of eviction from the Premises or Facility or termination of Purchaser's lease of the Premises and/or Facility. b. Option to Purchase. At the end of the seventh (7th) and fifteenth (15th) Contract Years and at the end of the Initial Term and each Additional Term, so long as Purchaser is not in default under this Agreement, Purchaser may purchase the System from Seller on any such date for a purchase price equal to the Fair Market Value of the System as mutually agreed by the Parties or, if the Parties are unable to agree, the Fair Market Value of the System as determined by an appraiser. Purchaser must provide a notification to Seller of its intent to purchase at least ninety (90) days and not more than one hundred eighty (180) days prior to the end of the applicable Contract Year or the Initial Term or Additional Term, as applicable, and the purchase shall be complete prior to the end of the applicable Contract Year or the Initial Term or Additional Term, as applicable. For a reasonable period not exceeding thirty (30) days from the date of provision of notice referred to in this Section 16(b), the Parties shall make best efforts to mutually agree on the Fair Market Value of the System. If the Fair Market Value cannot be mutually agreed upon, then the Parties shall use good faith commercially reasonable efforts to agree on the selection of a nationally recognized independent, third -party professional appraiser with experience and expertise in the solar photovoltaic industry to determine the Fair Market Value, as of the final day of the applicable Contract Year ("Buyout Date"). Within thirty (30) days of the selection of such appraiser, s/he shall evaluate and determine the Fair Market Value of the applicable System as of the Buyout Date and shall submit a report on same to the Parties. The costs of the appraisal shall be shared equally between Purchaser and Seller. C. Definition of Fair Market Value. "Fair Market Value" means the greater of (i) the amount that would be paid in an arm's length, free market transaction, for cash, between an informed, willing seller and an informed willing Purchaser, neither of whom is under compulsion to complete the transaction, taking into account, among other things, the age, condition and performance of the System and advances in solar technology, provided that installed equipment shall be valued on an installed basis, shall not be valued as scrap if it is functioning and in good condition, and (ii) for any given Contract Year, the present value (using a discount rate of eight percent (8%)) of all associated future income streams expected to be received by Seller arising from the operation of the System for the remaining term of the Agreement including but not limited to the expected price of electricity and Tax Credits and factoring in future costs and expenses associated with the System. If an appraiser is selected pursuant to Section 16(b), such appraiser shall act reasonably and in good faith to determine the Fair Market Value of the System based on the formulation set forth herein, and shall set forth such determination in a written opinion delivered to the Parties. The valuation made by any such appraiser shall be binding upon the Parties in the absence of fraud or manifest error. d. Buvout Determination. No later than sixty (60) days after determination of the Fair Market Value of the System, Purchaser shall confirm to Seller in writing of its intent to proceed or not to proceed with its option to purchase the System at the Fair Market Value. In the event Purchaser does not provide such written confirmation or elects not to 28 W ' flet)ecca`,Strstainabilit)�Solar InsWllation�cst) council 07 21 2014`.'Vtachment 2 - PPA Form.doc. 7,8,,14 303305`,4351 1'00 14 ATTACHMENT 2 28 proceed with such option, the provisions of the Agreement shall continue to apply as if Purchaser had not exercised the option to purchase the System. e. Buyout Oblieations. If Purchaser confirms its intent to proceed with its option to purchase as specified above, the Parties shall promptly execute all documents necessary to (A) cause title and ownership of the applicable System to pass to Purchaser on the Buyout Date, free and clear of any liens, and (B) assign all warranties for the applicable System to Purchaser. Purchaser shall pay the Fair Market Value to Seller on or about the Buyout Date, in accordance with any previous written instructions delivered to Purchaser by Seller for payments under the Agreement. Upon such execution of documents and payment of the Fair Market Value, this Agreement shall terminate automatically and Purchaser shall own the System and all Environmental Attributes, Environmental Incentives and any available Tax Credits relating to the System. For the avoidance of doubt, payment of the Fair Market Value shall be in lieu of and instead of any payments described in Section 4(a) accruing from and after the Buyout Date. Seller shall provide all necessary cooperation with Purchaser to give prompt effect to this transfer. All other personal property of Seller not included in Purchaser's purchase shall be removed by Seller from Purchaser's premises at no cost to Purchaser. Upon purchase of the System, Purchaser will assume complete responsibility for the operation and maintenance of the System and liability for the performance of the System, and Seller shall have no further liabilities or obligations hereunder. 17.

Excuse Due to Force Maieure. Except as otherwise expressly provided to the contrary in this Agreement, if either Party is rendered wholly or partly unable to timely perform its obligations under this Agreement because of a Force Majeure event, that Party shall be excused from the performance affected by the Force Majeure event (but only to the extent so affected) and the time for performing such excused obligations shall be extended as reasonably necessary; provided, that: (i) the Party affected by such Force Majeure event, as soon as reasonably practicable after obtaining knowledge of the occurrence of the claimed Force Majeure event, gives the other Party prompt oral notice, followed by a written notice reasonably describing the event; (ii) the suspension of or extension of time for performance is of no greater scope and of no longer duration than is required by the Force Majeure event; and (iii) the Party affected by such Force Majeure event uses all reasonable efforts to mitigate or remedy its inability to perform as soon as reasonably possible.

Seller shall give Purchaser notice of any such collateral assignment within five (5) business days of making such assignment. Purchaser's consent to any assignment shall not be unreasonably withheld if Purchaser has been provided with reasonable proof that the proposed assignee (x) has comparable experience in operating and maintaining photovoltaic solar systems comparable to the System and providing services comparable to those contemplated by this Agreement and (y) has the financial capability to maintain the System and provide the services contemplated by this Agreement in the manner required by this Agreement. In the event of any assignment, the assignor shall remain a primary obligor unless assignee shall expressly assume in writing all obligations under this Agreement.

Seller's Financing Parties are hereby made express third party beneficiaries of the provisions of this Section 19. 20. California Public Records Act. Purchaser is a public agency subject to the disclosure requirements of the California Public Records Act ("CPRA"). If Seller proprietary information is contained in documents or information submitted to Purchaser, and Seller claims that such information falls within one or more CPRA exemptions, Seller must clearly mark such information "CONFIDENTIAL AND PROPRIETARY," and identify the specific lines containing the information. In the event of a request for such information, Purchaser will make best efforts to provide notice to Seller prior to such disclosure. If Seller contends that any documents are exempt from the CPRA and wishes to prevent disclosure, it is required to obtain a protective order, injunctive relief or other appropriate remedy from a court of law in Marin County before Purchaser's deadline for responding to the CPRA request. If Seller fails to obtain such remedy within Purchaser's deadline for responding to the CPRA request, Purchaser may disclose the requested information. Seller further agrees that it shall defend, indemnify and hold Purchaser harmless against any claim, action or litigation (including but not limited to all judgments, costs, fees, and attorneys' fees) that may result from denial by Purchaser of a CPRA request for information arising from any representation, or any action (or inaction), by Seller. 21.
