SIXTH REPORT TO THE COURT
SUBMITTED BY PRICEWATERHOUSECOOPERS INC.
IN ITS CAPACITY AS RECEIVER
INTRODUCTION
I) By Order of this Honourable Court granted August 12, 2009 (the "Initial Order"),
Interwind Corp. (formerly known as SkyPower Corp.) ("Interwind" or the
"Company") obtained relief under the Companies' Creditors Arrangement Act, R.S.C.
1985, c.C-36, as amended (the "CCAA Proceedings") which, among other things,
provided for the appointment of KPMG Inc. as Monitor of Interwind (the "Initial
Monitor").
2) On February 19, 2010, this Honourable Court issued an Order (the "Claims Process
Order") authorizing the Initial Monitor to conduct a claims process in the CCAA
Proceedings (the "Claims Process"), which contemplated a call for cenain claims
against the directors and officers of the Company, certain post-filing claims against the
Company and certain construction lien claims.
-23) On March 30, 2010, pursuant to an order of the Honourable Justice Morawetz (the
"Receivership Order"), PricewaterhouseCoopers Inc. was appointed as receiver (in
such capacity, the "Receiver"), without security, of all of the cun'ent and future assets,
undertakings and properties of the Company, not including certain equipment (the
"Equipment") listed in Exhibit 1 to Schedule L.1(nn) to the Share Purchase Agreement
dated December 15,2009 between Interwind and enXco Service Corporation, pursuant
to section 243(1) of the Bankruptcy and Insolvency Act, R.S.C. 1985, c. B-3, as
amended (the "BlAH) and section 101 of the Courts of Justice Act, R.S.O.1990, C.
C.43, as amended (the "Receivership Proceedings"). Further orders of this
Honourable Court also substituted PricewaterhouseCoopers Inc. as Monitor of
Interwind (in such capacity, the "Monitor") in the CCAA Proceedings and approved
the issuance of the Fresh as Amended Initial Order, which facilitated this substitution
and provided for certain other amendments.
4) This report is being submitted in support of the motion being brought by the Receiver
seeking advice and directions from this Honourable Court in respect of the
determination of the Construction Lien Claims filed in the Company's Claims Process
by Golder Associates Ltd. (the "Golder Claim") and Jacques Whitford Stantec Ltd. by
its successor in interest, Stantec Consulting Ltd. (the "Stantec Claim" and together
wIth the Golder Claim, the "Disputed Construction Lien Claims") pursuant to a
resolution process (the "Resolution Process") that was approved by Order of this
Honourable Court dated May 21, 2010 (the "Resolution Process Order"), which is
described further below.
5) Unless otherwise stated, all monetary amounts contained herein are expressed in
Canadian Dollars. Capitalized terms not otherwise defined are as defined in the
Claims Process Order, the Fresh as Amended Initial Order and the Receiver's previous
reports.
6) Certain of the information contained in this Report has been obtained from the books
and records, and other financial information of Interwind in the Receiver's possession.
The accuracy and completeness of the financial information contained herein have not
23
-3been audited or otherwise verified by the Receiver, and the Receiver does not express
an opinion or provide any other form of assurance on the information presented herein.
The Receiver reserves the right to refine or amend its comments and findings as
further information is obtained or brought to its attention subsequent to the date of this
Report.
THE RESOLUTON PROCESS
7) A Resolution Process has been set for the Disputed Construction Lien Claims pursuant
to the Resolution Process Order, which provided that:
a) The Receiver would deliver certain documents, identified in Schedule "A" of the
Resolution Process Order to holders of the Disputed Construction Lien Claims,
which the Receiver completed on May 21,2010;
b) The holders of the Golder Claim and the Stantec Claim would submit affidavits in
support of their Construction Lien Claims by June 23, 2010 and June 28, 2010
respectively, which were fied on or before those dates; and,
c) The Receiver would bring a motion seeking advice and directions to be heard on
July 16, 2010, in respect of the determination of the Disputed Construction Lien
Claims unless otherwise resolved by the applicable parties. The Court
subsequently advised the Receiver's counsel that it was no longer available to
hear the motion on July 16, 2010 as previously scheduled and the motion was
rescheduled to August 9, 2010. with the approval of counsel for Golder, Stantec
and HSH Nordbank.
8) In view of the current status of these proceedings, it is apparent that the ultimate issue
before the Court is whether either or both of Golder Associates Ltd. ("Golder") or
Jacques Whitford Stantec Ltd. by its successor in interest, Stantec Consulting Ltd.
("Stantec") have a claim that is a secured claim that would entitle one or both of them
to receive proceeds in priority to the proven secured claim of HSH Nordbank. The
Receiver does not perceive its role to be to enter into a priority dispute among
24
-4competing creditors. Rather, it understands its role at this stage is to provide the Court
and the parties with facts in the Receiver's possession and to set out the issues for the
purposes of allowing the parties in interest to advance their respective positions on the
merits.
9) Therefore, as part of bringing its motion in the Resolution Process, the Receiver has
set out below its comments on the affidavits fied by holders of Disputed Construction
Lien Claims, in respect of how the points raised in those affidavits compare to the
financial records and related information in the Receiver's possession. The Receiver
will also set out the legal issues that it understands are at issue and which require
determination in respect of the Golder Claim and the Stantec Claim. The Receiver has
been informed that these issues wil be addressed in submissions to be made by
counsel for HSH Nordbank. The form and timing of these submissions wil be further
clarified as part of the within motion.
THE GOLDER CLAIM
10) The affidavit submitted by Golder, the holder of the Golder Claim (the "Golder
Affidavit"), asserts that:
a) The Company retained Golder to prepare certain reports in connection with the
potential development of several wind energy farm projects (the "Projects") in the
provinces of Ontario, Manitoba and Quebec pursuant to certain environmental
legislation and regulations;
b) Initial contracts (the "Golder Contracts") were executed, which set out the scope of
work for the Projects. Subsequently, work on the basis of the Golder Contracts
was undertaken by Golder;
c) During the course of execution of the work, Interwind made several changes to the
scope of the work in the Golder Contracts, in accordance with purchase orders,
work orders, change orders and instructions from the Company. Moreover, due to
the nature of the Company's requests, ongoingJday-to-day directions and
25
-5-
instructions were provided by email, telephone and in-person meetings to review
and direct various aspects of the work;
d) As Golder's personnel carried out their work, they recorded the amount of time
and date(s) on which the work was performed into timesheets. The timesheets were
then used to generate the invoices relating to the Projects; and
e) As a result of the total amounts invoiced by and paid to Golder an amount of
approximately $919,000 with respect to the Projects remains unpaid.
RECEIVER'S REVIEW OF CONTRACT ACCOUNTING FOR GOLDER CLAIM
I l) Based on a review of the Golder Contracts, subsequent scope change documentation
provided in the Golder Affidavit, and
the Company's documents in the Receiver's
possession (the "Golder Materials"), the Receiver notes the following (a summary
table of this analysis is contained in Appendix A):
a) The Golder Contracts outlined the scope of services to be performed by Golder for
the Projects. Golder agreed to provide these services oil a fixed price per Project
basis (the "Fixed Price"), comprising an Interim Spend approval and a Final Spend
approval, subject to necessary scope changes agreed upon as work progressed. The
Receiver was able to confirm all of the Interim Spend amounts by reviewing the
Golder Contracts except an amount of $85,000 in respect of the Rolling River
project in Manitoba for which a contract could not be located;
b) According to the Golder Contracts, the Final Spend (or the "Bonus") was only
earned by and payable to Golder upon successful acceptance of the Environmental
Screening Report and upon receipt of Certificates of Approval for the work in
question. The Receiver has not identified any information in its possession
indicating that either of these events occurred for any of the Projects in question.
Based on its discussions with former Management of the Company, the Receiver
understands that neither of these events occurred for any of the Projects in
question. It appears that factual issues exist as to whether Golder has earned the
Bonus amounts of $874,000;
26
-6-
c) With respect to services provided by Golder in the provinces of Ontario and
Manitoba, it appears that the Company has paid Golder approximately $889,000
and $357,000 to date, respectively. In reviewing the Company's books and
records, the Receiver was able to confirm that the bulk of t11ese expenditures by
Golder appear to have been authorized by the Company. However, the Receiver
has been unable to locate any evidence that the Company authorized expenditures
by Golder of $164,000 and $53,000 in those provinces, respectively,
notwithstanding that the Company paid such amounts in excess of the authorized
amounts to Golder. There appears to be a factual issue as to whether these
amounts were authorized;
d) With respect to services provided by Golder in the province of Quebec, the
Company has paid Golder $615,000 to date, which is less than the authorized
expenditures of $761,000. There appears to be an issue as to whether the Company
owes Golder approximately $146,000 in respect of services performed in the
province of Quebec; and
e) On a net basis, based on the Receiver's review of the documentary evidence of
work and expenditures that the Company authorized in the Golder Materials, there
appears to be an amount owing from Golder to the Company in the range of
approximately $70,000 (the "Golder Overpayment"), on account of payments
made by the Company in excess of the amounts that it had authorized. This
compares to Golder asserting that it has a claim of approximately $919,000 (the
"Golder Claim Amount") against the Company.
12) The difference of $989,000 between the Golder Claim Amount and the Golder
Overpayment may relate, among other things, to the following:
a) Whether Bonus amounts being claimed by Golder were earned and therefore
authorized as set out above; and
b) Whether a contract for the Rolling River project in Manitoba was executed.

LEGAL ISSUES IN GOLDER CLAIM
13) Based on its review of the Golder Affidavit, the issues raised by the Golder Claim, and
from discussions with its legal counsel, the Receiver understands that the following
legal issues require determination as part of the Resolution Process:
A. Ontario
a) Did the Company have a lienable interest in the Projects pursuant to the provisions
of the Construction Lien Act, R.S.O. 1990, c. C.30, as amended (the "Act")? Do
the option agreements granted by various freehold owners to the Company
(collectively defined as and forming part of the "Documents" referenced in the
Resolution Process Order) give rise to a lienable interest? In particular, does an
option to lease, a license, and/or a revenue sharing arrangement give rise to a
lienable interest?
b) Did the Company ever have a leasehold interest in the Projects that was capable of
being liened?
c) Was the Company an "owner" within the meaning of the Act?
d) Did the freehold owners constitute "owners" within the meaning of the Act? Did
Golder give written notice to the freehold owners pursuant to section 19(1) of the
Act?
e) Were the services and materials supplied by Golder supplied to an "improvement"
within the meaning of the Act? In particular, was there a suffcient nexus between
the services provided by Golder and an improvement to the land?
t) What specific services, and what value of services, were supplied to each parcel of
land liened by Golder?
g) Were all the services provided by Golder lienable pursuant to the Act? Were the
services provided by Golder and any of its sub-consultants subject to holdback
under the Act?
28
29
-8-
h) Was Golder's lien timely pursuant to the Act?
i) Can Golder recover any amount as a secured creditor in priority to HSH
Nordbank?
j) Is Golder contractually entitled to payment of the full amount claimed? In
particular, can Golder claim amounts that were conditional upon the acceptance of
its Environmental Screening Rep011s (ESR' s) and receipt of the Certificates of
Approval? In addition, can Golder claim amounts relating to services not
authorized by the Company?
k) Has Golder included in its claim any amount for interest, contrary to section 14(2)
of the Act?
ß. Quebec
a) Counsel for HSH Nordbank is currently seeking the opinion of Quebec based
counsel with respect to the legal issues relating to the Golder Claim in the province
of
Quebec.
b) Such opinion will be provided to the Receiver and will subsequently be shared
with counsel for Golder.
c) Furthermore, the Receiver notes that in its First Report dated April 16, 2010, at
paragraphs 15 (ii)(subparagraphs vii -ix) and 15(v), legal issues related to Golder's
lien in Quebec were set out and will be expanded upon by counsel for HSH
Nordbank.
C. Manitoba
a) Was Golder's contract with the Company "abandoned" under the provisions of The
Builders Líen Act, R.S.M. 1987, c. B.91 the ("BLA").
b) Was Golder's lien preserved in accordance with the BLA? Was Golder's lien
timely pursuant to the BLA?
-9-
c) Was Golder's contract with the Company "for construction" or "for improving
land" as those terms are used in the BLA?
d) Is the Company an "owner" within the meaning of the BLA?
e) Does Golder have a lienable claim for the unpaid portion of its invoices relating to
First Nation Land? Is the Rolling River Project situated on First Nation land?
f) Were all the services provided by Golder lienable pursuant to the BLA? In
particular, was Golder "an engineer retained by the owner" pursuant to the BLA
and therefore precluded from advancing a lien claim in respect of its unpaid
invoices? What portion of the Golder claim relates to engineering services and
what is the breakdown of same?
g) Is Golder contractually entitled to the full amount claimed? What specific services
and what value of services, were supplied to each parcel of land Iiened by Golder?
Ii) Can Golder claim amounts related to services not authorized by the Company?
THE ST ANTEC CLAIM
14) The affidavit submitted by Stantec, the holder of the Stantec Claim (the "Stantec
Affidavit"), asserts that:
a) A contract (the "Stantec Contract") was entered into between Stantec and the
Company to prepare an Environmental Screening and Review Report (the
"Environmental Report") for the Company's Byran Wind Energy Project (the
"B yran Project"). The Environmental Report was required in connection with the
potential development of the Byran Project pursuant to certain environmental
legislation and regulations;
b) The Stantec Contract outlined the scope of services that Stantec would provide and
the total approved budget within which it would provide these services. Several
scope changes and corresponding budget increases occurred subsequent to the
30
31
- i 0 -
execution of the Stantec Contract in accordance with purchase orders and
instnictions from the Company;
c) Pursuant to the Stantec Contract and subsequent scope changes, the Company
authorized Stantec to incur expenditures of approximately $635,000 related to the
B yran Project; and
d) As a result of the total amounts invoiced by and paid to Stantec, an amount of
approximately $254,000 with respect to the Byran Project remains unpaid.
RECEIVER'S REVIEW OF CONTRACT ACCOUNTING FOR STANTEC CLAIM
l 5) Based on a review of the Stantec Contract, subsequent scope change documentation
provided in the Stantec Affidavit and the Company's documents in the Receiver's
possession (the "Stantec Materials"), the Receiver notes the following (a summary
table of this analysis is contained in Appendix B):
a) The Stantec Contract outlined the scope and cost of services to be performed by
Stantec for the Byran Project subject to necessary scope changes agreed upon as
work progressed. The Receiver was unable to locate evidence of authorization by
the Company for approximately $13,000 of the amounts claimed by Stantec under
the Stantec Contract. There appears to be a factual issue as to whether these
amounts were authorized;
b) Several scope changes and corresponding budget increases occurred subsequent to
the execution of these contracts. The Receiver was unable to locate evidence of
authorization by the Company for a particular change in scope involving
expenditures of approximately $270,000 of the amounts claimed by Stantec under
the Stantec Contract. There appears to bea factual issue as to whether these
amounts were authorized; and,
16) On a net basis, the amount of approximately $254,000 being claimed by Stantec (the
"Stantec Claim Amount") may be approximately $220,000 greater than the
approximate $34,000 that may be supported by the Company's records based on
32
- 11 -
documentary authorization evidence (the "Stantec Authorization") in the Stantec
Materials.
NOMINAL PROCEEDS RECEIVED FROM THE SALE OF THE ßVRAN LAND INTEREST
17) In its Ninth Report (attached without appendices as Appendix C), the Initial Monitor
of the Company in its CCAA Proceedings outlined the terms of the sale of the
Company's wind development business assets (the "Wind Assets") to CPY Canada
Development ULC ("CPV"). Certain terms of the purchase agreement and the
amendments thereto (collectively, the "Purchase Agreement") for the sale of the Wind
Assets to CPV have been sealed by this Honourable Court. An unredacted version of
the Purchase Agreement, as amended, has been provided to Stantec on a confidential
basis in accordance with the terms of the Resolution Process Order.
18) The sale of the Wind Assets was completed prior to the appointment of the Receiver.
As such, the following comments are based on the Receiver's review of the
Company's documentation in its possession and discussions with the various parties
involved in the Sales Process.
19) The Initial Monitor has previously reported to this Court on the Sales Process
undertaken by the Company with respect to the Company's Wind Assets. In its Ninth
Report the Initial Monitor concluded that the process undertaken by the Company and
Marathon to sell the Wind Assets was in accordance with the process set by this
Honourable Court and that this was a fair and effective process conducted in good
faith with a view to maximizing realizations for the stakeholders of the Company.
20) The sale of the Company's Wind Assets to CPV was approved in an Approval and
Vesting Order issued by this Honourable Coiit dated J auuary 19th, 2010 (attached as
Appendix D).
21) The Byran Project, including the option agreements (the "Option Agreements"), were
included in the Wind Assets on which CPY made its offer. However, in its Tenth
Report (attached without appendices as Appendix E), the Initial Monitor noted that the
Purchase Agreement was amended to bifurcate the closing of the Wind Asset
33
- 12 -
transaction so that all but one wind project (namely the Byran Project) and certain
other assets would be conveyed on the first closing.,
22) This bifurcation of the Purchase Agreement was approved by the Order of this
Honourable Court dated February 12th, 2010 (attached as Appendix F) which amended
the Approval and Vesting Order dated January 191\ 2010.
23) The Receiver understands that the conditional sale of the Byran Project was removed
from the transaction completed on the first closing to provide additional time for the
parties to seek resolution of various issues relating to the Byran Project and allow CPV
to conduct further due diligence in respect of the B yran Project.
24) Notwithstanding this additional time, the Receiver understands that the Company and
CPV could not resolve the issues relating to the Byran Project and, thereafter, CPV
advised the Company that it no longer wished to take the Byran Project forward.
25) The Receiver is not aware of any offers for or interest by the other bidders in the Sales
Process for the Wind Assets in acquiring the Byran Project on a standalone basis,
regardless of the resolution of the issues relating to that project.
26) The Receiver understands that, given the issues relating to the Byran Project could not
be resolved (which restricted the Company's ability to sell the Byran Project as a
whole for value), it was determined that a fair and reasonable solution in the
circumstances was to sell the assets pertaining to the Byran Project to CPV for
nominal consideration to which CPV agreed. These amendments to the purchase price
regarding the Byran Project were approved by Order of this Honourable Court dated
March 251\ 2010 being the Second Order amending the Approval and Vesting Order
dated January 191h, 2010 (attached as Appendix G).
27) In summary, the Receiver notes that the Wind Assets were sold pursuant to a fair and
effective Sales Process, which ultimately resulted in nominal value being received
from CPV for the Byran Project and for the Option Agreements. Therefore, in the
event that the legal issues noted below are resolved such that the Stantec Claim is
34
- 13 -
considered a valid Construction Lien Claim then the amount of the claim that would
be considered a secured claim pursuant to the Construction Lien Act may be limited to
the nominal proceeds received.
28) In order to try and reach a consensual resolution to the Stantec Claim, the Receiver on
behalf of the Company has previously offered to pay Stantec a settement amount
comprising the nominal proceeds received for the assets pertaining to the B yran
Project plus reimbursement to Stantec for pursuing its claim against the Company up
to a maximum amount. This offer was rejected by Stantec.
LEGAL ISSUES
29) Based on its review of the Stantec Affidavit, the issues raised by the Stantec Claim,
and from discussions with its legal counsel, the Receiver understands that the
following legal issues require determination as part of the Resolution Process:
a) Did the Company have a lienable interest in the Byran Project pursuant to the
provisions of the Act? Do the option agreements granted by various freehold
owners to the Company (collectively defined and forming part of the "Documents"
referenced in the Resolution Process Order) give rise to a lienable interest? In
paricular, does an option to lease, a license and/or a revenue sharing arrangement
give rise to a lienable interest?
b) Did the Company ever have a leasehold interest in the Byran Project that was
capable of being liened?
c) Was the Company an "owner" within the meaning of the Act?
d) Did the freehold owners constitute "owners" within the meaning of the Act? Did
Stantec give written notice to the freehold owners pursuant to Section i 9(1) of the
Act?
35
- 14 -
e) Were the services and materials supplied by Stantec supplied to an "improvement"
within the meaning of the Act? In particular, was there a sufficient nexus between
the services provided by Stantec and an improvement to the land?
t) What specific services, and what value of services, were supplied to each parcel of
land liened by Stantec?
g) Were all the services provided by Stantec lienable pursuant to the Act? Were the
services provided by Stantec and any of its sub-consultants subject to holdback
under the Act?
h) Was Stantec's lien preserved in accordance with the Act?
i) Was Stantec's lien perfected in accordance with the Act'?
j) Did the vacating of Stantec's lien affect the underlying rights of the paries? Did
vacating the lien in any way affect the potential recovery of in the lien
proceedings?
k) Can Stantec recover as a secured creditor in priority to HSH Nordbank anything
over and above the nominal proceeds that were received by the Company from the
sale of the B yran Project?
I) As an unsecured creditor, can Stantec recover any more than $34,000, being the
Stantec Authorizatiún?
m) Can Stantec claim amounts related to services not authorized by the Company?
RECOMMENDATION AND CONCLUSION
30) The Receiver is of the view that the legal issues set out above in respect of each of the
Disputed Construction Lien Claims need to be addressed in priority. Accordingly, the
Receiver requests that this Honourable Court render a decision on the legal issues
based on the submissions of counsel for HSH Nordbank, Golder and Stantec.
36
- 15 -
31) The Receiver is further of the view that given the competing nature of the priority
claims and given the complexity of the legal issues related to the Golder Claim and the
Stantec Claim, it has become necessary to seek the advice and direction of this
Honourable Court with respect to the further process to be followed by the partiës
interested in the outcome of the Disputed Construction Lien Claims. This may include
a trial of the issues set out above.
32) The Receiver is of the view that the Company's documentation supports different
amounts for the Golder Claim and the Stantec Claim compared to the affidavits filed
by Golder and Stantec as set out above. Subject to the determination of this Court on
the legal issues outlined herein, these amounts may need to be approved as part of this
process.
All of which is respectfully submitted this 29th day of July, 2010.

approximately $16.5 millon compared
to a forecast cash balance of approximately $5,7 million. The positive variance in the cash
balance is largely due to the closing of sale transactions related to the Company's assets.
Lnterwind's net disbursements were approximately $4.2 millon compared to forecast net
34. On Januar 10,2010, Interwind had a cash balance of
8
52
approximately $5.8 millon. The net difference ofapproxiinately $1.6
million is attibutable to timing differences, deferral of expenses and an ongoing effort by
Management to streamline costs. The significant variances are discussed below:
disbursements of
(a) The Company disbursed approximately $ I 02,000 less than forecast on corporate
expenses largely due to efforts to control and minimize its expenses and timing
differences;
(b) Interwind paid approximately $879,000 for professional fees during the Reporting Period.
The difference of approximately $ 1.4 million is due to timing, as invoices due from
professionals and advisors to the Company have not yet been received;
(c) An amount of$435,000 was forecast for expenses related to lnterwinds DIP loan
facility. As advised earlier, the DIP loan facility was fully retired on December 23, 2009
before its maturity date. The difference of approximately $1,273,000 is primarily due to
which
the earlier than expected payment offees and accrued interest, the majority of
would otherwise have been payable upon maturity. Ln addition, an amount of
US$120,000 was paid to the DIP Lender to extend the date by which Interwind would
have to deliver written notice to the DIP Lender to extend the maturity date. The DIP
Financing Amendment Letter provided that such notice was to be delivered to the DIP
Lender on or before December 18, 2009. Interwind, with the concurrence of the Secured
Lenders, paid US$120,000 to extend the notice date to December 21, 2009;
(d) The positive variance of approximately $1. milion in development expenses is due
primarily to the deferrl of expenses as a result of a more in depth review of planned
expenditures by Management;
its Wind Development Business which

Wind Development Business has not yet occurred, no amount was paid;

and the DIP Lender to pay pre~filing amounts owed to suppliers, if, in the opinion of
Interwind, such payments are critical to the development of a project or its continued

operations. The aggregate of all such payments must not exceed $ I milion. Critical
supplier payments totaling approximately $198,000 were paid during the Reporting
Period. As of the date of this Ninth Report, a total of approximately $2 I 4,000 has been
paid to critical suppliers;
David Bacon sworn November 26, 2009, the opening cash
position shown in the cash flow forecast for the first week commencing November 23,
2009 included a portion of
the net proceeds realized to date by the Company in respect of
its sale process necessary to demonstrate that the Company can meet its cash needs
during the proposed Stay extension period. This was done to ensure that the proceeds
generated from the sale ofthc Solar Purchase Agreement, which was the only transaction
that had closed at that time, was not
revealed in the cash flow forecast given the sealing
order in place with respect to the purchase price therein. To ensure that the proceeds

from the Solar Purchase Agreement remain confidential, the actual opening cash position
on November 23,2009 remains identical to the forecast;
(i) The aggregate net proceeds from sales transactions that closed during the Reporting
Period are reflected in this number together with the portion otthe net sale proceeds
arising from the Solar Purchase Transaction that were not previously shown in the
opening cash balance to maintain purchase price confidentiality. The aggregate net sale
proceeds are shown net of success fees paid either directly to Marathon pursuant to the
Amended Marathon Engagement or to the Monitor, as escrow agent; and
(j) Interwind had forecast a parial repayment of the principal outstanding under its DIP
Financing. The negative variance relates to the difference in the principal amount
actually paid and foreign exchange.

required to market for sale the remaining Wind Development Business ofInterwind (the
"Amended Wind Development Sale Process"). The particulars of
the Amended Wind
Development Sale Process are summarized in the Monitor's Sixth Report.
48. The initial SaÌe Process undertken by the Company and Marathon did not lead to a binding
offer for the purchase and sale of the Wind Development Business of Interwind and as a
result, an Order from the Court was sought and obtained
on November 30, 2009 by Interwind
for an amended, expedited sales process for the Wind Development Business.
49. In accordance with the Amended Wind Development Sales Process, the Company and/or
Marathon identified and approached a select number of prospective purchasers ("Select
Bidders") a number of whom had previously expressed interest in the Wind Development
Business though enquiry and in some cases, due diligence undertaken during the initial Sale
Process. A total of 14 Select Bidders were approached by Marathon from which 5 offers or
the 5 offers or
expressions of interest by qualified Select Bidders were received. One of
expressions of interest was withdrawn by the particular Select Bidder prior to December 23,
2009.
SO. Negotiations, meetings and due dilgence involving Select Bidders, the Company and
Marathon and in some cases, the Secure Lenders, were conducted thoughout the period
December 1, 2009 through to December 23, 2009 (two days aftr the indicated date for
receipt of an executed definitive agreement under the Amended Wind Development Sale
Process). 11ie Amended Wind Development Sales Process was concluded on December 23,
2009 with the acceptce by the Company of
the CPV Purchase Agreement (the "CPV
Purchase Trasaion").
5 i. A letter dated Januar 4,2010 from legal counsel to enXco Service Corpomtion advised
Interwinds counsel that enXco intends to contest the Company's application for an approval
of
the CPV Purchas Agreement and that enXco intends to submit an offer for the purchae
of the Wind Development Business and present same to this Honoumble Court. EnXco
subsequently distrbuted to Marathon and the Monitor an executed Purchase Agreement by an
affliate of enXco, EDF EN Canada Inc., to purchase the Wind Development Business dated
as of Januar 8, 2010 (the "enXco Offet'). The enXco Offer
was attached to corrspondence
dated Januar 8,2010 from counsel for enXco indicating that .....the offer does represent our
best andfina/ offer for In/erwind's Wind Development Business...".
52. The Company moved for an order that enXco did not have standing at the Wind Development
Business sale approval motion scheduled for Januar 19,2010 and for related relief, That
motion was heard on January 15, 2010.
53. On Januar 15,2010, The Honourable Mr. Justice Morawetz granted the Company's motion
and declared that enXco does not have stading at the sale approval motion without prejudice
to enXco fiing revised materials and seekig to establish standing on proper grounds. The
13
57
Monitor confirmed to the Court on Januar IS, 20 I 0 that it would include comments on the
enXco otTer in its Supplementary Report to this Ninth Report, which is being prepared on a
confidential basis and is the subject of a request for a scaling order.

the Turbine Transaction to the HSH Bank Syndicate, the Monitor reported on the
advice provided to it by Borden Ladner Gervais LLP ("BLG") concerning the security held
by the HSH Bank Syndicate upon the propert of lnterwind (the "HSH Security"). Based on
the advice provided by BLG and information provided to the Monitor by the Company, the

those three jurisdictions.

41. The Monitor has obtained advice from counsel that appropriate registrations have been made
in respect of the HSH Security in Ontario, Quebec, Nova Scotia, Newfoundland and
Labrador, British Columbia, Alberta, Saskatchewan, Manitoba and New Brunswick.
42. The Monitor's counsel has advised that one of the key components of the collateral charged
in favour of HSH Bank Syndicate is collateral referred to in the Third Amended and Restated
Credit Agreement dated Februar 22, 2008 (the "HSH Security Agreement") as "Project
Collateral". Project Collateral is defined as follows:
"Project Collateral" means all wind lease options, leases and other rights to real
Title, Equipment,
propert, wind data Chattel Paper, Contracts, Documents of
Intangibles, Instruments, Inventory, Permits and any other personal propert and
all Proceeds thereof and/or Accounts Receivable due thereunder, together with
them, in each case now owned or
all increases, additions and accessions to any of
hereafter acquired, that in each case comprises or is part of
the Projects,
including any Equity Interests held by the Borrower of any entity fonned or
established to hold or own any such propert; provided, that the "Project
Collateral" (x) shall not include the interests and assets described in Sections
2. i (a)(i) and (iii) and (y)shall exclude (i) any wind turbines, turbine supply
agreements and associated equipment and, other than the amounts described in
Section 2.l(a)(ii),all Proceeds thereof, which the Borrower may finance other

that may have been Project Collateral but that have been

Agreement;
The term Project Collateral is broad. It includes wind lease options, leases and other rights to
real propert, "Permits" and any other personal propert that in each case "comprises or is
par of the Projects". Projects are defined simply as "wind energy projects in Canada being
by the
Borrower or its Affliates". Thereare anumber of exceptions in the

pursuant to the Advances under the Credit Agreement", That is, the HSH Security is not all
encompassing.
43. Interwind also granted security to Lehman (the "Lehman Security"). BLG has advised the
Monitor thatthe Lehman Security charges all otInterwinds "present and future assets,
undertaking and personal property". BLG has advised the Monitor that the Lehman Security

the term ofa lease, and (b) contracts and
Lehman security does not apply to (a) the last day of
public licenses that, if charged by the security, would be in default as a consequence of the
grant of a security interest in them unless and until consent is provided. It is not clear
whether the Lehman Security extends to interests in real property.
44. The Monitor has obtained advice from counsel that appropriate registrations have been made

favour of Lehman under the Manitoba PPSA. The Monitor is in the course of obtaining a
Manitoba opinion in respect of
the Lehman Security.
45. The Monitor understands that Interwind, HSH Bank Syndicate and Lehman are paries to a
subordination agreement. BLG has reviewed the Second Amended and Restated
Subordination Agreement dated April i 5,2009, as between lnterwind, the HSH Bank
Syndicate and Lehman, (the "Subordination Agreement"). BLG has advised the Monitor that
the Subordination Agreement postpones and subordinates Lehman's right to payment to that
of the HSH Bank Syndicate and provides that any recoveries on account ofthe Lehman
Security shall be turned over to the HSH Bank Syndicate in respect of Interwinds obligations
to the HSH Bank Syndicate. The Monitor understands that both the HSH Bank Syndicate
