                                    RECITALS

                  A. On March 14, 2001, Enron and NewPower entered into a
Master Cross-Product Netting, Setoff, and Security Agreement (the "Master
Agreement") concerning a series of commodity purchase and swap transactions.

                   B. On October 18, 2001, Enron and NewPower amended the
Master Agreement through the Second Amendment to Master Netting Agreement (the
"Second Agreement"), pursuant to which Enron held approximately $70 million in
collateral posted by NewPower (the "Pledged Collateral") and Enron secured
claims against NewPower for an additional $28 million (the "Secured Claims").

                  C. Enron and the Non-Debtor Enron Parties, collectively,
presently own 31,666,800 shares of NewPower Holdings common stock (the "Enron
Shares"), and 24,117,800 warrants for the purchase of NewPower Holdings common
stock (the "EES Warrants" and, collectively with the Enron Shares, the "Enron
Equity Interests"), collectively representing approximately 43.8% of the total
outstanding equity ownership of NewPower.

                  D. On December 2, 2001, and periodically thereafter, ENE and
certain of its affiliated entities filed voluntary petitions for relief
pursuant to chapter 11 of title 11 of the United States Code (the "Bankruptcy
Code") in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of New
York (the "Enron Bankruptcy Court"), jointly administered as Case No. 01-16034
(AJG) (the "Enron Chapter 11 Case");

                  E. Following commencement of the Enron Chapter 11 Case,
Enron and NewPower negotiated a resolution of disputes arising under several
contracts between NewPower and Enron, including the Master Agreement and the
Second Agreement (the "First NewPower Settlement"), whereby NewPower allowed
Enron to foreclose on the Pledged Collateral and NewPower gave Enron a secured
note in the amount of $28 million (the "Secured Note") in payment of the
Secured Claims.


<PAGE>

                  F. On March 1, 2002, Enron filed a motion (the "NewPower
Settlement Motion"), pursuant to Rule 9019 of the Federal Rules of Bankruptcy
Procedure (the "Bankruptcy Rules"), seeking the Enron Bankruptcy Court's
approval of the First NewPower Settlement and, on March 28, 2002, following
notice and hearing, the Enron Bankruptcy Court entered an order (the "First
NewPower Settlement Order"), authorizing and approving the First NewPower
Settlement.

                  G. On June 11, 2002, NewPower and certain of its affiliates
filed petitions for relief pursuant to chapter 11 of title 11 of the
Bankruptcy Code in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Northern
District of Georgia, Newnan Division (the "NewPower Bankruptcy Court"),
jointly administered as Case No. 02-108351 (WHD) (the "NewPower Chapter 11
Cases").

                  H. Enron filed timely proofs of claim in each of the
NewPower Chapter 11 Cases, asserting secured claims in excess of $28,000,000
for outstanding principal and interest due and owing on the Secured Note
pursuant to the First NewPower Settlement, plus attorneys' fees and expenses
incurred in connection therewith (collectively, the "Enron Claims").

                  I. On November 1, 2002, NewPower advised Enron that neither
NewPower nor the statutory committee of unsecured creditors appointed in the
NewPower Chapter 11 Cases (the NewPower Committee") could find any basis for
objecting to the Enron Claims, and, as a result thereof, on or about November
5, 2002, NewPower paid to Enron $28,485,958.30 pursuant to the terms and
conditions of a cash collateral order entered in the NewPower Chapter 11
Cases.

                  J. NewPower and the NewPower Committee filed objections with
the NewPower Bankruptcy Court to Enron's claim for attorneys' fees and costs.
On or about January 15, 2003, NewPower, Enron, and the NewPower Committee
entered into a settlement, approved by the NewPower Bankruptcy Court, pursuant
to which NewPower agreed to pay $137,000 in attorney's fees and costs to
Enron, and Enron agreed to withdraw the Enron Claims (the "Second NewPower
Settlement").

                  K. On January 17, 2003, the NewPower Bankruptcy Court
entered an Order Approving United States Trustee's Motion for Appointment of
an Examiner and Denying Motion for Appointment of Committee of Equity Security
Holders, and on March 12, 2003, the NewPower Bankruptcy Court entered a
Consent Order Amending and Clarifying the Examiner Order (collectively, the
"Examiner Order").

                  L. On February 12, 2003, with respect to NewPower, and
August 15, 2003, with respect to NewPower Holdings and TNPC Holdings, the
NewPower Bankruptcy Court entered orders (the "NewPower Confirmation Orders")
confirming the Second Amended Chapter 11 Plan of the NewPower Debtors (the
"NewPower Plan").

                  M. On February 14, 2003, the NewPower Bankruptcy Court
issued an order (the "Second NewPower Settlement Order") approving the Second
NewPower Settlement, and shortly thereafter, the Second NewPower Settlement
was consummated.

                  N. On July 15, 2004, the Enron Bankruptcy Court entered an
order (the "Enron Confirmation Order") confirming the Supplemental Modified
Fifth Amended Joint Plan


                                      2
<PAGE>

of Affiliated Debtors Pursuant to Chapter 11 of the United States Bankruptcy
Code, dated July 2, 2004 (the "Enron Plan") and thereafter, on November 17,
2004, the Plan was consummated and Enron emerged from chapter 11.

                  O. On September 17, 2004, the NewPower Bankruptcy Court
entered an order (the "Interim Distribution Order") (1) authorizing NewPower
to make interim distributions to certain holders of equity interests in the
NewPower Chapter 11 Cases and (2) directing NewPower to establish an
interest-bearing account, entitled "Reserve for Shareholder Distributions",
into which NewPower deposited $30,806,204 on behalf of Enron and the
Non-Debtor Enron Entities (the "Enron Reserve").

                  P. On September 24, 2004, the Examiner commenced litigation
entitled Rufus T. Dorsey, IV, Examiner for NewPower Holdings, Inc. and TNPC
Holdings, Inc. v. Enron Corp., et al., Adv. Pro. No. 04-04303, in the Enron
Bankruptcy Court (the "Adversary Proceeding") seeking to recover NewPower's
prior payment on the Secured Note, recharacterize the indebtedness evidenced
by the Secured Note as equity in NewPower Holdings, and to equitably
subordinate all of the equity interests in NewPower Holdings held or asserted
by Enron and the Non-Debtor Enron Entities.

                  Q. On March 29, 2005, the Examiner, through his counsel
Parker, Hudson, Rainer & Dobbs LLP (the "Examiner's Counsel"), filed a
pleading in the NewPower Bankruptcy Court entitled "Objection of Examiner to
Equity Interests of Enron Parties" (the "Objection"), seeking to disallow the
Enron Equity Interests.

                  R. In response to the Objection, Enron filed a motion (the
"Sanctions Motion") in the Enron Bankruptcy Court, seeking an order enforcing
the automatic stay and Enron Plan injunction, and imposing sanctions on the
Examiner and the Examiner's Counsel for a knowing violation of the automatic
stay in the Enron Chapter 11 Case.

                  S. The Enron Bankruptcy Court and the NewPower Bankruptcy
Court thereafter entered orders referring Enron and the Examiner to mediation
and staying further pursuit of the Adversary Proceeding, the Objection, and
the Sanctions Motion (collectively, the "Pending Litigation") pending
completion of such mediation.

                  T. As represented by NewPower in the NewPower Debtor's
Monthly Financial Reports (Business) for the Period from 5/31/06 to 6/30/2006
filed by NewPower with the NewPower Bankruptcy Court (the "NewPower June
Report"), as of June 30, 2006, the Enron Reserve held $31,169,375.49, for the
benefit of Enron and the Non-Debtor Enron Entities.

                  U. As represented by NewPower in the NewPower June Report,
NewPower maintains an interest-bearing money market account which, as of June
30, 2006, held $16,277,571.50 (the "NewPower Money Market Account"), as part
of the NewPower bankruptcy estate.

                  V. Enron, the Non-Debtor Enron Entities, NewPower and the
Examiner wish to avoid the risks and expenses attendant to the Pending
Litigation, and, without any Party admitting fault, liability or wrongdoing,
to resolve the issues surrounding the Pending Litigation

              2.5 Exercise of EES Warrants. On the Effective Date, the EES

represent an agreement and understanding among Enron, the Non-Debtor Enron
Entities and NewPower and the Examiner is not intended to be a party thereto
and shall have no obligation or liability to any Party with respect to such
provisions, and (b) in the event that a dispute arises with respect to the

name or seek to add the Examiner as a party to such litigation, arbitration or
mediation, and the resolution of such dispute, whether by judgment, agreement
