ARTICLE VI

INDEMNIFICATION

Section 6.1 Indemnification obligations of the Seller. Effective as of the date of this Agreement, a payment of Indemnification from the Seller to the Buyer will be due with respect to any and all losses, direct damages, costs and expenses including, without limitation, the reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel (collectively, “Losses”) directly or indirectly based upon, arising out of, or resulting from (“Seller Indemnification Event”):

(i) any inaccuracies or breach of any representation or warranty of the Seller as made in this Agreement and otherwise not specifically identified and disclosed in this Agreement.

(ii) any breach of any agreement, covenant or obligation of the Seller under this Agreement or under any other document required to be delivered under this Agreement.

Section 6.2 Indemnification obligations of the Buyer. Conversely, a payment of Indemnification from the Buyer to the Seller will be due with respect to any and all Losses arising directly out of, or resulting from (“Buyer Indemnification Event”):

(i) any inaccuracies or breach of any representation or warranty of the Buyer contained in this Agreement.

(ii) any breach of any agreement, covenant or obligation of the Buyer under this Agreement or under any other document required to be delivered under this Agreement.

Section 6.3 Benefits arising from Losses. Any payment of Indemnification shall be net of any benefits, expenses or reductions arising as a result of a Loss (including, e.g., the reduction of income taxes due by virtue of the deduction of the relevant Loss from the entity’s tax basis).

Section 6.4 Direct Claims. The Party entitled to any Indemnification under this Section (“Indemnified Party”) shall notify the Party responsible for paying such Indemnification (“Indemnifying Party”) of any Claim which does not result in a Third-Party Claim (a “Direct Claim”), describing with reasonable detail the Direct Claim, the amount of the Loss, if known, and the method of computation thereof, with a reference to the provision of this Agreement in respect of which such right of Indemnification is claimed or arises. The Indemnifying Party shall then have a period of 30 (thirty) days from the receipt of such notice to (i) cure the breach that gave rise to the Indemnification, if capable of cure, and (ii) respond in writing to the Indemnified Party, either agreeing with the Indemnification or presenting

Execution Version – July 15th, 2015

any comment or objection in relation thereto. Failure to provide the Indemnified Party with a written reply within the period set forth above shall mean a formal acceptance of the subject matter of the Direct Claim and shall trigger the Indemnification obligation to be effected in favor of the Indemnified Party. If the Parties do not reach an agreement on the existing of an Indemnification Event as a result of such Direct Claim, the matter shall be decided in accordance with the procedures of Section 8.

Section 6.5 Conduct of Third-Party Claims. The Indemnified Party shall notify the Indemnifying Party of any Third-Party Claim that might entitle the Indemnified Party to Indemnification, as a result of a Loss under this Agreement. Such notification (the “Claim Notice”) shall be made on the terms of Section 9.1 within (a) 15 (fifteen) Business Days of the date a Claim brought by a Person who is not a Party to this Agreement or an Affiliate of a Party to this Agreement (the “Third-Party Claim”) comes to the attention of the Indemnified Party or (b) the period that is up to one-third of the legal timeframe to file defenses or counterclaims against the Third-Party Claim in question (the “Defense”), whichever happens first. The Claim Notice shall describe the nature of the Third-Party Claim in reasonable detail and shall indicate the estimated amount, if practicable, of the Loss that has been or may be sustained by the Indemnified Party. Such estimated amount shall in no way limit the Indemnified Party’s right to recover any amount of Losses over such estimate.

(a) The Indemnifying Party may conduct the Defense in any Third-Party Claim, at the Indemnifying Party’s sole cost and expense and by a counsel chosen by the Indemnifying Party. In order to assume the Defense, the Indemnifying Party shall notify the Indemnified Party within 3 (three) Business Days from the date in which the Claim Notice was received informing that it will assume the Defense.

(b) In case the Indemnifying Party opts not to conduct the Defense, or fails to notify the Indemnified Party within the term set forth in Section 6.5 above, the Indemnified Party shall conduct the Defense, provided that (i) the fees of the attorneys hired to conduct the Defense shall be reasonable and compatible with market practice, (ii) no settlement may be made without the prior written consent of the Indemnifying Party, and (iii) the Indemnified Party will lose its right for Indemnification if it, directly or by its lawyers, lose any deadline for the presentation of any instrument of Defense.

(c) The Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party agree to make available to each other, their counsel and other representatives, all information and documents available to them which relate to any Third-Party Claim. The Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party also agree to ensure that their representatives shall render to each other such assistance and cooperation as may reasonably be required to ensure the proper and adequate Defense of any such Third-Party Claim, including the granting of powers of attorneys, the retention, and the provision to the Indemnifying Party, of records and information relevant to such Third-Party Claim, and making its employees available to provide information and explanation of any materials provided hereunder.

(d) The Indemnifying Party shall be free to settle any Third-Party Claim that requires only the payment of monetary damages without the consent of the Indemnified Party. If any settlement involves damages other than monetary damages or requires an admission of guilt or wrongdoing by the Indemnified Party, then the Indemnifying Party shall not settle such Third-Party Claim without the consent of the Indemnified Party, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld.

(e) Attorney fees (sucumbências) eventually granted by the court will revert to the benefit of the Party who conducted the Third-Party Claim.

Section 6.6 Payment or Reimbursement. In the event a Claim under this Section shall have been finally determined, the amount equivalent to the Losses set forth in such final decision shall be paid to the Indemnifying Party by the Indemnified Party within 10 (ten) Business Days after (i) such final determination, or (ii) receipt of the notice delivered by the Indemnified Party to the Indemnifying Party of such final determination. The responsibility of payment of any amount of Losses shall be deemed to be finally determined for purposes of this Section when the parties to such action have so determined by mutual agreement or, if disputed, when final decision from the arbitration tribunal in respect thereof has been rendered pursuant to Section 8 with respect to Direct Claims, or a final non-appealable order shall have been entered (decisão transitada em julgado) with respect to Third-Party Claims.

Execution Version – July 15th, 2015

i.Any payment of Indemnification under this Agreement shall be paid net of any and all Taxes or any other charges imposed by any relevant Governmental Entity. If the Party responsible for the payment of the Indemnification has to withhold any amounts from the Indemnification payments it shall gross up such payment so that the Indemnified Party receives an amount equal to the amount it would have received if no such Tax or charge were/had been due.

Section 6.7 Double Claims. The Indemnified Party shall not be entitled to recover from the Indemnifying Party under this Agreement more than once in respect of the same Loss.

Section 6.8 Subsequent Recovery. If the Indemnifying Party pays an amount as Indemnification in discharge of any Claim under this Agreement and the Indemnified Party subsequently recovers (whether by payment, discount, credit, relief or otherwise) from a third party a sum which the Indemnifying Party has paid to the Indemnified Party and which would not otherwise have been received by the Indemnified Party, the Indemnifying Party shall be immediately reimbursed by the Indemnified Party of an amount equal to the amount previously paid by the Indemnifying Party to the Indemnified Party and recovered from the third party, less any reasonable cost and expenses incurred in obtaining such recovery and less any taxation attributable to the recovery.

Section 6.9 Limitations on the obligations to indemnify. The limitations set forth in items “a”, “b” and “c” of this Section, as well as the ones set forth in Section 6.10 shall apply to the indemnification obligations of the Indemnifying Party, provided, however, that any indemnification obligation of the Seller arising from a breach or misrepresentation of the representations and warranties of the Seller provided for in Section 4.1(a) (Organization); Section 4.1(b) (Power and Authority); Section 4.1(d) (Ownership of Light Renova Shares); and Section 4.1(i) (Anti-Corruption Practices), as well as the representations and warranties of the Seller with respect to Renova provided for in Section 4.2(b) (Capitalization) and any representation of the Buyer provided in Section 4.3(a)(Organization); Section 4.3(b) (Power and Authority); Section 4.3(h) (Capitalization) (each, a “Fundamental Warranty” and collectively the “Fundamental Warranties”) shall not be subject to any of the limitations and thresholds provided below, including the Floor, Basket Values and Cap.

(a) Floor. No indemnification is due from a Party to the other for any Claim if the amount of the Loss in connection thereto is lower than the amount in Brazilian Reais equivalent to US$50,000.00 (fifty thousand U.S. dollars), as converted from US$ to BRL according to the PTAX Rate of the Closing Date (“Floor”).

(b) Basket. Without prejudice to Section 6.9(a), the Indemnified Party may notify, but may not further pursue any indemnification regarding Losses in connection with this Agreement unless the aggregate amount of all such Losses exceeds an amount equal to the amount in Brazilian Reais equivalent to 0.5% (one half of one percent) of the Purchase Price, as converted from US$ to BRL according to the PTAX Rate of the Closing Date (the “Basket Values”), in which case the Indemnified Party may pursue the amount of the Losses that exceeds the Basket Values and the aggregate amount due as indemnification in respect of any such Losses shall accrue against and be recoverable from the Indemnifying Party.

(c) Cap. The aggregate amount of Indemnification due by the Indemnifying Party for all Losses shall not exceed an amount equal to the amount in Brazilian Reais equivalent to 15% (fifteen percent) of the Purchase Price, as converted from US$ to BRL according to the PTAX Rate of the Closing Date (“Cap”).

Section 6.10 Survival of Representations, Warranties, Agreements Etc. Except with respect to breaches by fraud or willful misstatement which such breaches will survive indefinitely, (i) the Fundamental Warranties shall survive the Closing Date until after the last day of expiration of the applicable statute of limitations (including any extensions or waivers); (ii) the representations and warranties of Section 4.2(g) (Tax Matters) and Section 4.2(i) (Environmental Matters) shall survive the Closing Date for five (5) years as of the Closing Date; and (iii) all other representations and warranties provided for in Sections 4.1, 4.2 and 4.3 not specifically mentioned in this Section shall survive the Closing Date for two (2) years as of the Closing Date. All covenants hereunder required to be performed after the Closing Date shall survive indefinitely, if applicable.

No delay on the part of any Party in exercising any right, power or privilege pursuant to this Agreement shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any waiver of the part of any Party of any right, power or privilege pursuant to this Agreement, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, power or privilege pursuant to this Agreement, preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege pursuant to this Agreement.
