PART I

ITEM 1. BUSINESS

Overview

The Ridgewood Power Growth Fund (the “Fund”) is a Delaware trust formed on February 18, 1997. The Fund began offering ~~investor~~ shares of beneficial interest (“Investor Shares”) in February 1998 and concluded its offering in April 2000. ~~Historically, the Fund focused primarily on independent power generation facilities, water desalinization plants and other infrastructure projects both in the US and abroad.~~ Prior to the adoption of the Fund’s Plan of Dissolution (described below), the objective of the Fund was to provide benefits to its shareholders through a combination of distributions of operating cash flow and capital appreciation. Historically, the Fund focused primarily on independent power generation facilities, water desalinization plants and other infrastructure projects both in the US and abroad.

The Managing Shareholder of the Fund is Ridgewood Renewable Power LLC, a New Jersey limited liability company (the “Managing Shareholder” or “RRP”). As the Managing Shareholder, RRP has direct and exclusive control over the management and operations of the Fund.

On March 2, 2010, the Plan of Liquidation and Dissolution of The Ridgewood Power Growth Fund ~~owned~~(the ~~water~~“Plan ~~desalinization~~of ~~plants~~Dissolution”) ~~located~~became ineffective. ~~Egypt~~Under the Plan of Dissolution, the business of the Fund shifted, and became limited to the disposal of its remaining assets and resolution of its remaining liabilities. Upon the completion of these activities, if successful, the Managing Shareholder expects to distribute any remaining cash to the Fund’s shareholders and then proceed to terminate the Fund and its reporting obligations under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). The Fund is required to make adequate provisions to satisfy its known and unknown liabilities, which could substantially delay or limit the Fund’s ability to make future distributions to shareholders. The process of accounting for the Fund’s liabilities, including those that ~~were~~are ~~sold~~presently inunknown, ~~March~~may ~~2010~~involve difficult valuation decisions, which could adversely impact the amount or timing of any future distributions by the Fund.

Table of Contents

The Managing Shareholder is not currently able to project when the Fund will be able to liquidate.

There is no public market for Investor Shares and one is not likely to develop. In addition, Investor Shares are subject to significant restrictions on transfer and resale and cannot be transferred or resold except in accordance with the Fund’s Declaration of Trust (“Declaration of Trust”) and applicable federal and state securities laws.

Managing Shareholder

RRP, via a predecessor corporation, was founded in 1991 by Robert E. Swanson. As the Managing Shareholder, RRP has direct and exclusive control over the management of the Fund’s operations.

RRP performed, or arranged for the performance of, the operation and maintenance of the projects invested in by the Fund and continues to perform the management and administrative services required for Fund operations. Among other services, RRP administers the Fund’s accounts, including tax and other financial information, and handles relations with the Fund’s shareholders. RRP also provides the Fund with office space, equipment and facilities and provides other services necessary for its operation. Under the Plan of Dissolution, the Managing Shareholder has sole authority to dissolve, liquidate and terminate the Fund.

As compensation for its management services, the Managing Shareholder has historically been entitled to (i) an annual management fee, payable monthly, equal to 2.5% of the total capital contributions made by the Fund’s shareholders, and (ii) a 25% interest in the cash distributions made by the Fund in excess of a certain threshold amount expressed in terms of shareholder returns, which has not been, and is not expected to be, achieved by the Fund. The Managing Shareholder has also been entitled to receive reimbursement from the Fund for operating expenses incurred by the Fund, or on behalf of the Fund, and paid by RRP as the Managing Shareholder. RRP has historically arranged for administrative functions required to be performed for the Fund to be performed by an affiliate of RRP, Ridgewood Power Management LLC (“RPM”), at RPM’s cost. Those costs were reimbursed to RPM by the Fund. During 2011, RPM discontinued providing services to the Fund. RRP also serves as the managing shareholder (or managing member as appropriate) of a number of affiliated funds and investment vehicles similar to the Fund.

In connection with the settlement agreement discussed in Item 3. “Legal Proceedings” of this report, while RRP will still be performing its obligations under the management agreement with the Fund, RRP ~~has~~ waived the bulk of its management fees for 2011, and waived management fees on a going-forward basis. ~~and~~RRP ~~has~~also agreed to pay for all future normal and recurring operating expenses of the Fund without reimbursement from the Fund.

Affiliates of RRP act on behalf of a number of investment vehicles in the oil and gas and venture capital sectors in a manner similar to that for which RRP serves on behalf of the Fund.

Insurance

The Fund has insurance in place typical for activities such as those currently conducted by the Fund.

Employees

The Fund does not have employees. The activities of the Fund are performed either by employees of the Managing Shareholder or its affiliates.

Offices

The principal office of the Fund is located at 500 Delaware Avenue, #1112, Wilmington, Delaware, 19801 and its phone number is 302-888-7444. The Managing Shareholder’s principal office is located at 14 Philips Parkway, Montvale, New Jersey, 07645 and its phone number is 201-447-9000.

ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

On March 20, 2007, the Paul Bergeron Trust (“Bergeron”) commenced a derivative action on behalf of the Fund, in Suffolk County Superior Court, Commonwealth of Massachusetts. Bergeron joined the Fund and affiliated entities, including the Managing Shareholder and a person who is an officer of the Managing Shareholder, alleging that the allocation of the proceeds from the sale of certain assets of the Fund and affiliated entities was unfair. The derivative plaintiffs later amended the complaint to add a claim that the defendants breached fiduciary duties to the Fund and Ridgewood Electric Power Trust V, (“Trust V”) by forming affiliated funds to finance the expansion of underlying projects in which each of the Fund and Trust V had an interest, rather than using alternative financing, which allegedly resulted in a misallocation of sale proceeds. In December 2011, the defendants agreed to a settlement agreement with the derivative plaintiffs, subject to approval by the Court. The defendants disputed the allegations, asserted that the financing transactions were fair and denied all wrongdoing, but agreed:

· with participation from the Managing Shareholder’s primary insurer, Twin City Fire Insurance Company, part of the Hartford Insurance Group, to cause a cash payment to be made to the Fund and Trust V, less attorneys’ fees awarded by the court to the plaintiffs’ attorneys and a reimbursement to the Managing Shareholder as partial reimbursement for operating expenses of the Fund and Trust V, · to assign to the derivative plaintiffs, on behalf of the Fund and Trust V, all of the defendants’ rights and claims for coverage from, and any claims for damages against, Liberty Mutual Insurance Company (“Liberty”), the Managing Shareholder’s excess insurance carrier, · for the Managing Shareholder and any affiliated entities to waive any rights to any future distributions by the Fund and Trust V, · for the Managing Shareholder to waive the bulk of the Managing Shareholder’s management fees for 2011, as well as all management fees on a going-forward basis, and · for the Managing Shareholder to pay the on-going normal and recurring operating expenses of the Fund and Trust V until the two funds are liquidated.;

In· ~~January~~to ~~2012,~~assign to the ~~Court~~derivative ~~gave~~plaintiffs, ~~its~~on ~~final~~behalf ~~approval~~ of the ~~settlement.

In January 2012, the Court gave its final approval of the settlement. The Court did not determine the merits of the plaintiffs’ allegations, rendered no verdict and the settlement agreement is not an admission of any of the facts alleged by the plaintiffs or of any wrongdoing by the defendants. In March 2012, the cash portion of the settlement was made to the two funds, allocated in accordance with the agreement, and distributions made to their respective shareholders. The amount of cash distributed to the Fund’s shareholders totaled approximately $3,457,000.

The derivative plaintiffs are responsible for the managing, and ultimate disposition, of any claims against Liberty, and as a result, the Managing Shareholder is not able to predict when there will be a resolution of the claims, or if such resolution will include a payment to the Fund and Trust V. In June 2012, the derivative plaintiffs filed an amended claim in Suffolk County Superior Court, Commonwealth of Massachusetts, against Liberty, to pursue claims that were assigned as part of the above-mentioned settlement, including, among other things, breach of contract. The plaintiffs are seeking the award of damages, interest, costs and attorney fees, as well as the authority to enforce the January 2012 settlement agreement against Liberty.

ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the Fund’s Audited ~~Consolidated~~ Financial Statements and Notes, which are included in this Annual Report on Form 10-K beginning on page F-1. This discussion contains forward-looking statements that involve risks, uncertainties and assumptions. The Fund’s actual results could differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements as a result of various factors, including those set forth in “Forward-Looking Statements” and elsewhere in this Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Historically, the Fund focused primarily on independent power generation facilities, water desalinization plants and other infrastructure projects both in the US and abroad.

On March 2, 2010, the date of the sale of NEH’s operations, the Fund’s Plan of Dissolution became effective. Under the Plan of Dissolution, the business of the Fund shifted, and became limited to the disposal of its remaining assets and resolution of its remaining liabilities. Upon the completion of these activities, if successful, the Managing Shareholder expects to distribute any remaining cash to the Fund’s shareholders and then proceed to terminate the Fund and its reporting obligations under the Exchange Act. Under the Plan of Dissolution, the Managing Shareholder has sole authority to conduct the Fund’s dissolution, liquidation and termination without additional shareholder approval. As of the date of this filing, the Fund has not been liquidated, primarily due to on-going matters discussed in Item 3. “Legal Proceedings”. The Managing Shareholder is unable to estimate when these matters will be resolved and what financial impact they will have on the Fund’s net assets and the timing or amount of any future distributions to shareholders.

Liquidation Basis of Accounting

The Fund’s consolidated financial statements for periods prior to March 3, 2010 were prepared on the going concern basis of accounting, which contemplates realization of assets and satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. Upon the effectiveness of the Fund’s Plan of Dissolution, the Fund adopted the liquidation basis of accounting. This basis of accounting is considered appropriate when, among other things, liquidation of the Fund is probable. Under this basis of accounting, assets are valued at their estimated net realizable values and liabilities are valued at their estimated settlement amounts. The valuation of assets and liabilities requires management to make significant estimates and assumptions.

~~Upon~~Critical ~~conversion~~Accounting toPolicies ~~the liquidation basis of accounting, the Fund accrued known estimated values of assets expected to be received~~ and known estimated costs expected to be incurred during liquidation. On an ongoing basis, the Fund evaluates the estimates and assumptions that could have a significant impact on the Fund’s reported net assets in liquidation. Actual amounts may differ materially and adversely from these estimates.Estimates

The discussion and analysis of the Fund’s financial condition and results of operations are based upon the Fund’s financial statements, which have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). In preparing these financial statements, the Fund is required to make certain estimates, judgments and assumptions that affect the reported amount of the Fund’s assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, including the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities, as well as the reported amounts of changes in net assets. The estimates also affect the reported estimated value of net realizable assets and settlement of liabilities. The Fund evaluates these estimates and assumptions on an ongoing basis. The Fund bases its estimates and assumptions on historical experience and on various other factors that the Fund believes to be reasonable at the time the estimates and assumptions are made. However, future events and their effects cannot be predicted with absolute certainty. Therefore, the determination of estimates requires the exercise of judgment. Actual results may differ from these estimates and assumptions under different circumstances or conditions, and such differences may be material to the financial statements.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

In accordance with Rule 13a-15(b) of the Exchange Act, the Fund’s management, with the participation of the Fund’s Chief Executive and Financial Officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of the Fund’s disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(e). Based on this evaluation, the Fund’s Chief Executive and Financial Officer concluded that the Fund’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of the end of the period covered by this report to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Fund in reports filed pursuant to the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) rules and forms and that information required to be disclosed by the Fund is accumulated and communicated to senior management so as to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Management’s Annual Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting

The Fund’s management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting for the Fund, as such term is defined in Rule 13a-15(f) of the Exchange Act. The Fund’s internal control over financial reporting is designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with GAAP.

Table of Contents

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with policies or procedures may deteriorate.

Management of the Fund, including its Chief Executive and Financial Officer, assessed the effectiveness of the Fund’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, ~~2011~~2012, as required by Rule 13a-15(c) of the Exchange Act. In making this assessment, management of the Fund used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (“COSO”) in Internal Control over Financial Reporting — Guidance for Smaller Public Companies. Based on this evaluation, the Fund’s management concluded that as of December 31, ~~2011~~2012, the Fund’s internal control over financial reporting was effective.

This Annual Report on Form 10-K does not include an attestation report of the Fund’s independent registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management’s report was not subject to attestation by the Fund’s independent registered public accounting firm pursuant to SEC rules that permit the Fund to provide only management’s report in this Annual Report.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

The Fund’s Chief Executive and Financial Officer has concluded that there has been no change in the Fund's internal control over financial reporting (as such term is defined in Rule 13a-15(f) ~~under~~of the Exchange Act) that occurred during the ~~fiscal~~ quarter ended December 31, ~~2011~~2012 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Fund’s internal control over financial reporting.

Mr. Swanson has been President and registered principal of Ridgewood Securities Corporation (“Ridgewood Securities”) since its formation in 1982, has served as the Chairman of the Board of Ridgewood Capital since its organization in 1998 and has served as Chief Executive Officer of Ridgewood Energy since its inception in 1982. Mr. Swanson is aan inactive member of the New York State and New Jersey State Bars, the Association of the Bar of the City of New York and the New York State Bar Association. He is a graduate of Amherst College and Fordham University Law School.

Jeffrey H. Strasberg has served as Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer of the Fund, the Managing Shareholder and affiliated trusts and limited liability companies since May 2007.

Daniel V. Gulino has served as Senior Vice President and General Counsel of the Fund, the Managing Shareholder and affiliated trusts and limited liability companies since 2000 and was appointed Secretary in February 2007. Mr. Gulino also serves as Senior Vice President and General Counsel of Ridgewood Energy, Ridgewood Capital, Ridgewood Securities and affiliated trusts and limited liability companies and has done so since 2000. Mr. Gulino is a member of the New Jersey State and Pennsylvania State Bars. He is a graduate of Fairleigh Dickinson University and Rutgers University School of Law.

Board of Directors and Board Committees

The Fund does not have its own board of directors or any board committees. The Fund relies upon the Managing Shareholder to perform the functions that a board of directors or its committees would otherwise perform. Officers of the Fund are not directly compensated by the Fund, and all compensation matters are addressed by the Managing Shareholder, as described in Item 11. “Executive Compensation”. Because the Fund does not maintain a board of directors and because officers of the Fund are compensated by the Managing Shareholder, the Managing Shareholder believes that it is appropriate for the Fund not to have a nominating, audit or compensation committee.

Special Litigation Committee

In May 2010, the Managing Shareholder, on behalf of the Fund and Trust V, formed a Special Litigation Committee to perform an independent evaluation of the derivative action against the Fund and Trust V discussed in Item 3. “Legal Proceedings” and to make all decisions on behalf of the Fund and Trust V relative to the derivative action. In connection with the settlement of the derivative action, the Special Litigation Committee was disbanded in March 2012. The members of the Special Litigation Committee were paid on a fixed contracted hourly rate plus out of pocket expenses, which were borne, in part, by the Managing Shareholder and also by the Fund and Trust V.

Managing Shareholder

The Fund operates pursuant to the terms of a management agreement with the Managing Shareholder (“Management Agreement”). The Fund’s Management Agreement details how the Managing Shareholder is to render management, administrative and investment advisory services to the Fund. Specifically, the Managing Shareholder performs (or may arrange for the performance of) the management and administrative services required for the operation of the Fund. Among other services, the Managing Shareholder administers the Fund’s accounts and handles relations with Fund’s shareholders, provides the Fund with office space, equipment and facilities and provides other services necessary for its operation, and conducts the Fund’s relations with custodians, depositories, accountants, attorneys, brokers and dealers, corporate fiduciaries, insurers, banks and others, as required.

7The Managing Shareholder also has been responsible for making investment and divestment decisions for the Fund, subject to the provisions of the Declaration of Trust. The Managing Shareholder is obligated to pay the compensation of the personnel, and the administrative and service expenses, necessary to perform the foregoing obligations. The Fund has historically paid all other expenses of the Fund, including transaction expenses, valuation costs, expenses of preparing, printing and filing periodic reports for shareholders and the SEC, postage for Fund mailings, SEC filing fees, interest, taxes, legal, accounting and consulting fees, litigation expenses and other expenses properly payable by the Fund. The Fund has historically reimbursed the Managing Shareholder for all such Fund expenses that are paid by the Managing Shareholder.

The Fund has historically reimbursed the Managing Shareholder for all such Fund expenses that are paid by the Managing Shareholder.

As compensation for the Managing Shareholder’s performance under the Management Agreement, the Fund has historically been obligated to pay the Managing Shareholder an annual management fee described below in Item 13. “Certain Relationships and Related Transactions, and Director Independence”.

Each investor in the Fund consented to the terms and conditions of the Management Agreement by subscribing to acquire Investor Shares in the Fund. The Management Agreement is subject to termination at any time on 60 days prior notice by a majority in interest of the shareholders or the Managing Shareholder. The Management Agreement is subject to amendment by the parties upon the approval of a majority in interest of the investors.

Section 16(a) Beneficial Ownership Reporting Compliance

Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act, requires the Fund’s executive officers and directors, and persons who own more than 10% of a registered class of the Fund’s equity securities, to file reports of ownership and changes in ownership with the SEC. During the past fiscal year, the Managing Shareholder believes that all filings required to be made by the Fund’s executive officers pursuant to Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act have been timely filed with the SEC. The Fund has no directors or 10% shareholders.

Code of Ethics

In March 2004, the Managing Shareholder, for itself and for the Fund and its affiliates, adopted a Code of Ethics applicable to the principal executive officer, principal financial officer and principal accounting officer or controller (or any persons performing similar functions) of each such entity. A copy of the Code of Ethics is filed as Exhibit 14 to this Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Table of Contents

ITEM 11. EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION

The Fund does not directly compensate its executives. Notwithstanding, the Managing Shareholder does not believe its compensation practices are likely to have a material adverse effect on the Fund. The Managing Shareholder believes that its compensation policies and practices do not encourage excessive risk taking.

During ~~2011~~2012 and ~~2010~~2011, the executive officers of the Fund did not receive compensation directly from the Fund or any of its subsidiaries. They provide managerial services to the Fund in accordance with the terms of the Fund’s Declaration of Trust and the Management Agreement. The Managing Shareholder, directly or through affiliated management companies, determines and pays the compensation of these officers. Each of the executive officers of the Fund also serves as an executive officer of the Managing Shareholder and other funds managed by the Managing Shareholder and its affiliates.

The Fund has, however, historically paid the Managing Shareholder a management fee under the Management Agreement, and the Managing Shareholder has used a portion of the proceeds from the management fee to pay compensation to executive officers of the Fund. See Item 13. “Certain Relationships and Related Transactions, and Director Independence” for more information regarding Managing Shareholder compensation ~~and payments to affiliated entities~~.

ITEM 12. SECURITY OWNERSHIP OF CERTAIN BENEFICIAL OWNERS AND MANAGEMENT AND RELATED STOCKHOLDER MATTERS

The following table sets forth information with respect to the beneficial ownership of the Fund’s Investor Shares as of ~~January~~December 31, 2012 (no person owns more than 5% of the outstanding Investor Shares) by:

each executive officer of the Fund (there are no directors); and

all of the executive officers of the Fund as a group.

Table of Contents

Beneficial ownership is determined in accordance with SEC rules and includes voting or investment power with respect to the securities. Except as indicated by footnote, and subject to applicable community property laws, each person named in the table below has sole voting and investment power with respect to all Investor Shares shown as beneficially owned by that person. Percentage of beneficial ownership is based on 658.2067 Investor Shares outstanding at ~~January~~December 31, 2012. Other than as set forth below, no officer of the Fund owns any shares of the Fund.

Name of beneficial owner	Number of shares (1)	Percent
Ridgewood Renewable Power LLC (Managing Shareholder) Robert E. Swanson, controlling member	2.25	*
Executive officers as a group	2.25	*

* Represents less than one percent.

(1)

Does not include a management share in the Fund representing the beneficial interests and management rights of the Managing Shareholder in its capacity as the Managing Shareholder. The management share owned by the Managing Shareholder is the only issued and outstanding management share of the Fund. The material management rights and obligations of the Managing Shareholder are described in further detail in Item 1. “Business – Managing Shareholder”.

ITEM 13. CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS, AND DIRECTOR INDEPENDENCE

Under the terms of the Fund’s Management Agreement, the Fund has historically been obligated to pay the Managing Shareholder an annual management fee of $1.6 million, an amount equal to 2.5% of the total contributed capital of the Fund, as compensation for the services the Managing Shareholder provides to the Fund. The management fee was to be paid in monthly installments and, to the extent that the Fund did not pay the management fee on a timely basis, the Fund accrued interest at an annual rate of 10% on the unpaid balance. For the years ended December 31, ~~2011~~2012 and ~~2010~~2011, the Fund paid management fees of $~~25,000~~0 and $~~1 million~~25,000, respectively. Beginning in 2012, the Managing Shareholder has agreed to cease charging management fees under the settlement described in Item 3. “Legal Proceedings”.

Under anthe ~~Operating~~Declaration ~~Agreement~~of Trust, the Managing Shareholder has historically been entitled to receive, concurrently with the shareholders of the Fund, ~~RPM~~other ~~provided~~than ~~management,~~the ~~purchasing,~~Managing ~~engineering~~Shareholder, ~~planning~~1% ~~and~~of ~~administrative~~all ~~services~~distributions tofrom ~~the~~operations ~~projects~~made ~~operated~~ by the Fund. ~~RPM~~in ~~charged~~a ~~the~~year ~~projects~~until atthe ~~its~~shareholders ~~cost~~received ~~for~~distributions ~~these~~in ~~services~~that ~~and~~year ~~for~~equal ~~the~~to ~~allocable~~12% ~~amount~~per annum of ~~certain~~their ~~overhead~~equity ~~items~~contribution. ~~Allocations~~Thereafter, ofthe ~~costs~~Managing ~~were~~Shareholder onwas ~~the~~entitled ~~basis~~to receive 25% of ~~identifiable~~the ~~direct~~distributions ~~costs~~for orthe inremainder ~~proportion~~of tothe ~~amounts~~year. ~~invested~~The inManaging ~~projects~~Shareholder ~~managed~~was byentitled ~~RPM.~~to ~~For~~receive 1% of the ~~year~~proceeds ~~ended~~from ~~December~~dispositions ~~31,~~of ~~2010,~~Fund ~~RPM~~property ~~charged~~until the ~~Fund’s~~shareholders, ~~projects~~other ~~$0.1~~than ~~million~~the ~~for~~Managing ~~overhead~~Shareholder, ~~items~~received ~~allocated~~cumulative indistributions ~~proportion~~equal to ~~the~~their ~~amount~~original ~~invested~~investment in(“Payout”). ~~projects~~After ~~managed~~Payout, bythe ~~RPM;~~Managing ~~there~~Shareholder ~~were~~was noentitled ~~similar~~to ~~expenses~~receive in25% ~~2011.~~of Inall ~~addition,~~remaining ~~for~~distributions of the ~~year~~Fund. ~~ended~~The ~~December~~Fund ~~31,~~has ~~2010,~~not ~~RPM~~reached ~~charged~~Payout ~~the~~and ~~Fund’s~~is ~~projects~~not $0expected to do so.2 ~~million~~The ~~for~~Managing ~~identifiable~~Shareholder ~~direct~~did ~~expenses;~~not ~~there~~receive ~~were~~any nodistributions ~~similar~~during ~~expenses~~2012 inand 2011., ~~These~~and ~~charges~~has ~~may~~agreed, ~~not~~under bethe ~~indicative~~settlement ofdescribed ~~cost~~in ~~that~~Item 3. ~~would~~“Legal ~~have~~Proceedings,” ~~been~~to ~~incurred~~waive ifany ~~the~~further ~~projects~~distributions ~~were~~it ~~not~~otherwise ~~operated~~might bybe ~~RPM~~entitled to receive.

Under the Declaration of Trust, the Managing Shareholder has historically been entitled to receive, concurrently with the shareholders of the Fund, other than the Managing Shareholder, 1% of all distributions from operations made by the Fund in a year until the shareholders received distributions in that year equal to 12% per annum of their equity contribution. Thereafter, the Managing Shareholder was entitled to receive 25% of the distributions for the remainder of the year. The Managing Shareholder was entitled to receive 1% of the proceeds from dispositions of Fund property until the shareholders, other than the Managing Shareholder, received cumulative distributions equal to their original investment (“Payout”). After Payout, the Managing Shareholder was entitled to receive 25% of all remaining distributions of the Fund. The Fund has not reached Payout and is not expected to do so. The Managing Shareholder did not receive any distributions during 2011 and 2010, and has agreed, under the settlement described in Item 3. “Legal Proceedings,” to waive any further distributions it otherwise might be entitled to receive.

The Fund’s income is allocated to the Managing Shareholder until the profits so allocated equal distributions to the Managing Shareholder. Thereafter, income is allocated among the shareholders, other than the Managing Shareholder, in proportion to their ownership of Investor Shares. If the Fund has net losses for a fiscal period, the losses are allocated 99% to the shareholders, other than the Managing Shareholder, and 1% to the Managing Shareholder, subject to certain limitations as set forth in the Declaration of Trust. Losses allocated to shareholders, other than the Managing Shareholder, are apportioned among them in proportion to their ownership of Investor Shares.

Under the terms of the Declaration of Trust, if the Adjusted Capital Account (as defined in the Declaration of Trust) of a shareholder, other than the Managing Shareholder, would become negative using General Allocations (as defined in the Declaration of Trust), losses and expenses will be allocated to the Managing Shareholder. Should the Managing Shareholder’s Adjusted Capital Account become negative, then any such items of income or gain will be allocated entirely to the Managing Shareholder until such time as the Managing Shareholder’s Adjusted Capital Account becomes positive. This mechanism does not change the allocation of cash distribution, as discussed above.

Table of Contents

In accordance with the Declaration of Trust, upon or prior to the first distribution by the Fund in liquidation, the Managing Shareholder is required to contribute to the capital of the Fund an amount equal to any deficit in the tax basis capital account of the Managing Shareholder calculated just prior to the date of such distribution. As of December 31, 2011, no such contribution was required and it is not anticipated that any such contribution will be required in the future.

ITEM 14. PRINCIPAL ACCOUNTANT FEES AND SERVICES

The following table presents fees and services rendered by Grant Thornton LLP, the Fund’s principal independent registered public accounting firm, for the years ended December 31, ~~2011~~2012 and ~~2010~~2011 (in thousands):

	2011		2010
	2012		2011
Audit fees	$	4627	$	6246
Tax fees		1210		2312
Total	$	5837	$	8558

Tax fees consisted principally of tax compliance, planning and advisory services as well as tax examination services. For the years ended December 31, ~~2011~~2012 and ~~2010~~2011, the Fund did not incur any audit related fees.

Pre-Approval Policy and Procedures

The Fund does not have a board of directors or any board committees. The Fund relies upon the Managing Shareholder to perform the functions that a board of directors or its committees would otherwise perform. The Managing Shareholder pre-approves on an annual basis all audit services that may be performed by the Fund’s independent registered public accounting firm, including the audit engagement terms and fees, and also pre-approves any detailed types of audit-related and permitted tax services to be performed during the year. The Managing Shareholder pre-approves permitted non-audit services, if any, on an engagement-by-engagement basis. All services performed for the Fund by its independent registered public accounting firm during the ~~2011~~2012 and ~~2010~~2011 periods were pre-approved by the Managing Shareholder.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

The Managing Shareholder and Shareholders

The Ridgewood Power Growth Fund

We have audited the accompanying ~~consolidated~~ statements of net assets in liquidation (liquidation basis) of The Ridgewood Power Growth Fund (the “Fund” and a Delaware trust) as of December 31, ~~2011~~2012 and ~~2010~~2011, and the related ~~consolidated~~ statements of changes in net assets in liquidation (liquidation basis) for the ~~year~~years ended December 31, ~~2011~~2012 and ~~for the period from March 3, 2010 to December 31, 2010~~2011. We ~~also have audited the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss, changes in equity (deficit) and cash flows for the period from January 1, 2010 to March 2, 2010.~~ These ~~consolidated~~ financial statements are the responsibility of the Fund’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these ~~consolidated~~ financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the ~~consolidated~~ financial statements are free of material misstatement. The Fund is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Fund’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

AsIn ~~described~~our inopinion, ~~Note~~the 1financial statements referred to ~~the~~above ~~consolidated~~present ~~financial~~fairly, ~~statements~~in all material respects, the ~~shareholders~~net assets in liquidation (liquidation basis) of The Ridgewood Power Growth Fund ~~approved~~as ~~the sale~~ of ~~its~~December ~~interests~~31, in2012 ~~the~~and ~~Egypt~~2011 ~~business~~ and, asthe achanges ~~result,~~in ~~the~~its ~~Fund’s~~net ~~plan~~assets ofin liquidation ~~became~~(liquidation ~~effective~~basis) onfor ~~March~~the 2,years ~~2010.~~ended ~~The~~December ~~Fund~~31, ~~has~~2012 ~~changed~~and ~~its~~2011 ~~basis~~in ofconformity with accounting ~~for~~principles ~~periods~~generally ~~subsequent~~accepted toin ~~March 2, 2010 from~~ the ~~going-concern~~United ~~basis~~States toof ~~a liquidation basis~~America.

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the net assets in liquidation (liquidation basis) of The Ridgewood Power Growth Fund as of December 31, 2011 and 2010, the consolidated changes in its net assets in liquidation (liquidation basis) for the year ended December 31, 2011 and for the period from March 3, 2010 to December 31, 2010, and the consolidated results of its operations and comprehensive loss and its cash flows for the period from January 1, 2010 to March 2, 2010 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

NOTES TO ~~CONSOLIDATED~~ FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(dollar amounts in thousands, except per share data)

1. DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS

The Ridgewood Power Growth Fund (the “Fund”) is a Delaware trust formed on February 18, 1997. The Fund began offering shares of beneficial interest (“Investor Shares”) in February 1998 and concluded its offering in April 2000. The Fund has 658.2067 investor shares of beneficial interest (“Investor Shares”) outstanding. Prior to the adoption of the Fund’s Plan of Dissolution (described below), the objective of the Fund was to provide benefits to its shareholders through a combination of distributions of operating cash flow and capital appreciation. The Managing Shareholder of the Fund is Ridgewood Renewable Power LLC, a New Jersey limited liability company (the “Managing Shareholder” or “RRP”). Historically, the Fund focused primarily on independent power generation facilities, water desalinization plants and other infrastructure projects both in the US and abroad.

On March 2, 2010, the Plan of Liquidation and Dissolution of The Ridgewood Power Growth Fund’s ~~accompanying~~(the ~~consolidated~~“Plan ~~financial~~of ~~statements~~Dissolution”) ~~include~~became effective. Under the ~~accounts~~Plan of Dissolution, the business of the Fund shifted, and became limited to the disposal of its ~~formerly~~remaining ~~majority~~assets ~~owned~~and ~~subsidiaries~~resolution of its remaining liabilities. ~~Prior~~Upon tothe ~~March~~completion ~~2010~~of these activities, if successful, the ~~Fund~~Managing ~~owned~~Shareholder aexpects ~~68.1%~~to ~~interest~~distribute inany ~~Ridgewood~~remaining ~~Near~~cash ~~East~~to ~~Holdings~~the ~~LLC~~Fund’s ~~(“NEH”)~~shareholders and then proceed to terminate the ~~remaining~~Fund ~~noncontrolling~~and ~~interests~~its ~~were~~reporting ~~owned~~obligations byunder ~~Ridgewood~~the ~~Electric~~Securities ~~Power~~Exchange ~~Trust~~Act Vof 1934, as amended (the “~~Trust~~Exchange VAct”) ~~(14~~.~~1%)~~ The Fund is required to make adequate provisions to satisfy its known and ~~Ridgewood/Egypt~~unknown liabilities, which could substantially delay or limit the Fund’s ~~(“Egypt~~ability to make future distributions to shareholders. The process of accounting for the Fund”)’s ~~(17~~liabilities, including those that are presently unknown, may involve difficult valuation decisions, which could adversely impact the amount or timing of any future distributions by the Fund.~~8%).~~

OnUnder ~~March~~the 2,Plan ~~2010~~of Dissolution, ~~NEH~~the ~~sold~~Managing ~~its~~Shareholder ~~interests~~has insole ~~its~~authority ~~wholly~~to ~~owned~~conduct ~~subsidiary~~the Fund’s dissolution, ~~Ridgewood~~liquidation ~~Egypt~~and ~~for~~termination ~~Infrastructure~~without ~~LLC~~additional ~~(Egypt)~~shareholder ~~(“REFI”),~~approval. As of the ~~final~~date ~~operating~~of ~~asset~~issuance of these financial statements, the Fund. Inhas ~~addition~~not been liquidated, primarily due to ~~its~~on-going ~~other~~matters ~~operating~~discussed ~~assets,~~in ~~REFI~~Note ~~also~~3. ~~owned,~~The ~~through~~Managing aShareholder ~~combination~~is ofunable ~~direct~~to estimate when these matters will be resolved and ~~indirect~~what ~~ownership,~~financial ~~75.9%~~impact ofthe ~~Sinai~~matters ~~For~~will ~~Environmental~~have ~~Services~~on ~~S.A.E.~~the ~~(“Sinai”).~~Fund’s ~~NEH~~net ~~was~~assets ~~dissolved~~or inthe ~~December~~timing, ~~2010~~likelihood or amount of any future distributions to shareholders.

~~Prior~~In toMarch 2012, the ~~sale~~Fund made distributions to its shareholders of ~~Fund’s~~$3,457, ~~subsidiaries~~or $5,270 ~~the~~per ~~interests~~Investor Share as a result of ~~Trust~~the Vsettlement agreement discussed in Note 3. The Managing Shareholder, and ~~Egypt~~its ~~Fund~~affiliates, did not receive any portion of the distribution, including any distributions to Investor Shares. Other than the collection and distribution of the ~~interests~~settlement proceeds, the Fund had no financial activity during 2012. It is possible that resolution of the ~~other~~matters ~~owners~~discussed in Note 3 could result in a payment to the Fund; however, the Fund does not anticipate making additional distributions until the Fund has completed the liquidation process. At that time, the Fund’s remaining cash, if any, will be distributed to holders of ~~Sinai~~Investor Shares, ~~were~~other ~~presented~~than asany ~~noncontrolling~~Investor ~~interests~~Shares inheld by the ~~consolidated~~Managing ~~financial~~Shareholder ~~statements~~and its affiliates. The Trust currently has no cash, and does not expect to have any cash with which to make further distributions to shareholders unless resolution of the matters discussed in Note 3 results in a payment to the Fund.

The Fund believes that it currently has ~~reflected~~access ~~the~~to ~~results~~sufficient ofresources ~~NEH’s~~to ~~operations~~meet its anticipated obligations, as ~~discontinued~~the ~~operations~~Managing inShareholder has agreed to pay the ~~accompanying~~on-going ~~consolidated~~normal ~~statements~~and recurring operating expenses of ~~operations~~the ~~for~~Fund and waive all ~~periods~~future ~~presented~~management fees. ~~See~~Additionally, the Fund is not paying any on-going expenses regarding the matters discussed in Note 43. As a result, no additional estimated expenses for ~~further~~liquidation ~~discussion~~have ofbeen reflected in the ~~NEH~~accompanying ~~sale~~financial statements of the Fund.

~~On March 2, 2010, the date of the sale of REFI, the Plan of Liquidation and Dissolution of~~ The ~~Ridgewood Power Growth~~ Fund ~~(the~~has ~~“Plan~~evaluated ofsubsequent ~~Dissolution”)~~events ~~became~~and ~~effective.~~transactions ~~Under~~through the ~~Plan~~date of ~~Dissolution,~~ the ~~business~~issuance of ~~the Fund shifted, and became limited to the disposal of~~ its ~~remaining~~financial ~~assets and resolution of its remaining liabilities.

The Fund is required~~ to ~~make adequate provisions to satisfy its known and unknown liabilities~~, ~~which could substantially delay~~ or ~~limit~~disclosure in the ~~Fund’s~~ ~~ability~~notes to ~~make future distributions to shareholders. The process of accounting for the Fund’s liabilities~~, ~~including those that are presently unknown, may involve difficult valuation decisions, which could adversely impact~~ the ~~amount~~ orfinancial ~~timing of any future distributions by the Fund~~statements.

The Managing Shareholder performed, or arranged for the performance of, the operation and maintenance of the projects invested in by the Fund and continues to perform the management and administrative services required for Fund operations. Among other services, the Managing Shareholder administers the Fund’s accounts, including tax and other financial information, and handles relations with the Fund’s shareholders. The Managing Shareholder also provides the Fund with office space, equipment and facilities and provides other services necessary for its operation.

Under the Plan of Dissolution, the Managing Shareholder has sole authority to conduct the Fund’s dissolution, liquidation and termination without additional shareholder approval. As of March 29, 2012, the Fund has not been liquidated, primarily due to on-going matters discussed in Note 5. The Managing Shareholder is unable to estimate when these matters will be resolved and what financial impact the matters will have on the Fund’s net assets and the timing, likelihood, or amount of any future distributions to shareholders.

In March 2012, the Fund made distributions to its shareholders of $3,457, or $5,270 per Investor Share as a result of the settlement agreement discussed in Note 5. The Managing Shareholder, and its affiliates, did not receive any portion of the distribution, including any distributions to Investor Shares. The Fund does not anticipate making additional distributions until the Fund has completed the liquidation process. At that time, the Fund’s remaining cash, if any, will be distributed to holders of Investor Shares.

The Fund believes that it currently has access to sufficient resources to meet its anticipated obligations, as the Managing Shareholder has agreed to pay the on-going normal and recurring operating expenses of the Fund and waive all future management fees. As a result, no additional estimated expenses for liquidation have been reflected in the accompanying consolidated financial statements of the Fund.

The Fund has evaluated subsequent events and transactions through the date of the issuance of its financial statements, and concluded that there were no such events or transactions that require adjustment to, or disclosure in the notes to, the consolidated financial statements.

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

a) Basis of Presentation

The ~~consolidated~~ financial statements ~~include~~for the ~~accounts~~years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011 were prepared on the liquidation basis of accounting. This basis of accounting is considered appropriate when, among other things, liquidation of the Fund is probable. Under this basis of accounting, assets are valued at their estimated net realizable values and ~~its~~liabilities ~~former~~are ~~majority~~valued ~~owned~~at ~~subsidiaries~~their estimated settlement amounts. ~~Noncontrolling~~The ~~interests~~valuation inof ~~majority~~assets ~~owned~~and ~~subsidiaries~~liabilities ~~were~~requires ~~calculated~~management ~~based~~to ~~upon~~make significant estimates and assumptions. Upon conversion to the ~~respective~~liquidation ~~noncontrolling~~basis ~~interest~~of ~~ownership~~accounting, ~~percentages~~the Fund accrued known estimated values of assets expected to be received and known estimated costs expected to be incurred in liquidation. ~~All~~On ~~material~~an ~~intercompany~~ongoing ~~transactions~~basis, the Fund evaluates the estimates and assumptions that can have ~~been~~a ~~eliminated~~significant impact on the Fund’s reported net assets in ~~consolidation~~liquidation. Actual amounts may differ materially and adversely from these estimates.

The consolidated financial statements for periods prior to March 3, 2010 were prepared on the going concern basis of accounting, which contemplates realization of assets and satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. Upon the effectiveness of the Fund’s Plan of Dissolution, the Fund began preparing its financial statements on the liquidation basis of accounting. This basis of accounting is considered appropriate when, among other things, liquidation of the Fund is probable. Under this basis of accounting, assets are valued at their estimated net realizable values and liabilities are valued at their estimated settlement amounts. The valuation of assets and liabilities requires management to make significant estimates and assumptions. Upon conversion to the liquidation basis of accounting, the Fund accrued known estimated values of assets expected to be received and known estimated costs expected to be incurred in liquidation. On an ongoing basis, the Fund evaluates the estimates and assumptions that can have a significant impact on the Fund’s reported net assets in liquidation. Actual amounts may differ materially and adversely from these estimates.F-5

Table of Contents

b) Use of Estimates

The preparation of ~~consolidated~~ financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) requires the Fund to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of the Fund’s assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, including the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities, as well as the reported amounts of changes in net assets. The estimates also affect the reported estimated value of net realizable assets and settlement of liabilities. The Fund evaluates these estimates and assumptions on an ~~ongoing~~on-going basis. The Fund evaluates its estimates of assets and recordable liabilities for litigation and other contingencies. The Fund bases its estimates and assumptions on historical experience, current and expected conditions and various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different circumstances or conditions.

d)3. ~~Comprehensive~~COMMITMENTS ~~Loss~~AND CONTINGENCIES

On March 20, 2007, the Paul Bergeron Trust (“Bergeron”) commenced a derivative action on behalf of the Fund, in Suffolk County Superior Court, Commonwealth of Massachusetts. Bergeron joined the Fund and affiliated entities, including the Managing Shareholder and a person who is an officer of the Managing Shareholder, alleging that the allocation of the proceeds from the sale of certain assets of the Fund and affiliated entities was unfair. The derivative plaintiffs later amended the complaint to add a claim that the defendants breached fiduciary duties to the Fund’s ~~comprehensive~~and ~~loss~~Ridgewood ~~consists~~Electric Power Trust V (“Trust V”) by forming affiliated funds to finance the expansion of ~~net~~underlying ~~loss~~projects in which each of the Fund and ~~foreign~~Trust ~~currency~~V ~~translation~~had ~~adjustments~~an interest, rather than using alternative financing, which allegedly resulted in a misallocation of sale proceeds. In December 2011, the defendants agreed to a settlement agreement with the derivative plaintiffs, subject to approval by the Court. The defendants disputed the allegations, asserted that the financing transactions were fair and denied all wrongdoing, but agreed:

~~e) Fair~~· ~~Value~~with participation from the Managing Shareholder’s primary insurer, Twin City Fire Insurance Company, part of ~~Financial~~the ~~Instruments~~Hartford Insurance Group, to cause a cash payment to be made to the Fund and Trust V, less attorneys’ fees awarded by the court to the plaintiffs’ attorneys and a reimbursement to the Managing Shareholder as partial reimbursement for operating expenses of the Fund and Trust V;

The amount of cash distributed to the Trust’s shareholders totaled $3,457.

~~F-9~~4. TRANSACTIONS WITH MANAGING SHAREHOLDER AND AFFILIATES

The Fund operates pursuant to the terms of a management agreement with the Managing Shareholder (“Management Agreement”). Under the terms of the Management Agreement, the Managing Shareholder provides certain management, administrative and advisory services, and provides office space to the Fund. The Fund has historically been obligated to pay the Managing Shareholder an annual management fee of $1,645, an amount equal to 2.5% of the total contributed capital of the Fund, as compensation for the services the Managing Shareholder provides to the Fund. The management fee was to be paid in monthly installments and, to the extent that the Fund did not pay the management fee on a timely basis, the Fund accrued interest at an annual rate of 10% on the unpaid balance. For the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011, the Fund paid management fees of $0 and $25, respectively and waived the balances of management fees otherwise due. Beginning in 2012, the Managing Shareholder agreed to cease charging management fees under the settlement agreement described in Note 3.

Table of Contents

~~THE~~Under ~~RIDGEWOOD~~the ~~POWER~~Fund’s ~~GROWTH~~Declaration ~~FUND~~of Trust (“Declaration of Trust”), the Managing Shareholder has historically been entitled to receive, concurrently with the shareholders of the Fund, other than the Managing Shareholder, 1% of all distributions from operations made by the Fund in a year until the shareholders received distributions in that year equal to 12% per annum of their equity contribution. Thereafter, the Managing Shareholder was entitled to receive 25% of the distributions for the remainder of the year. The Managing Shareholder was entitled to receive 1% of the proceeds from dispositions of Fund property until the shareholders, other than the Managing Shareholder, received cumulative distributions equal to their original investment (“Payout”). After Payout, the Managing Shareholder was entitled to receive 25% of all remaining distributions of the Fund. The Managing Shareholder did not receive any distributions during 2012 and 2011, and, as part of the settlement agreement described in Note 3, has agreed to waive any further distributions it otherwise might be entitled to receive. The Fund has not reached Payout and is not expected to do so.

~~NOTES~~RRP TOowns ~~CONSOLIDATED~~2.25 ~~FINANCIAL~~Investor ~~STATEMENTS~~Shares of the Fund. Under the settlement agreement described in Note 3, RRP has waived its right to receive any future distributions that would otherwise be allocated to the Investor Shares. In addition, the Fund granted the Managing Shareholder a single Management Share representing the Managing Shareholder’s management rights.

4. DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS

NEH

On March 2, 2010, NEH disposed of all of its interest in REFI for cash to Mr. Zaki Girges, the general manager of REFI, and El Orouba for Water Desalination S.A.E., an Egyptian joint stock company owned by Mr. Girges and his family. NEH received gross proceeds, prior to expenses, of $13,000 of which $8,853 was allocated to the Fund. In March 2010, the Fund recorded a loss of $62 on the disposition of REFI, which was included in the accompanying consolidated statement of operations.

Financial information relating to NEH, including the loss recognized from the sale of REFI, for the period from January 1, 2010 to March 2, 2010 was as follows:

	Period from
	January 1, 2010 to
	March 2, 2010
Revenues from NEH operations	$	1,939
Cost of revenues		1,617
Other expenses, net		3
Total expenses, net		1,620
Income from discontinued operations, net of income tax		319
Loss on disposal		(62	)
		257
Net earnings attributable to noncontrolling interest		(107	)
Income from discontinued operations attributable to Growth Fund	$	150

The loss on disposal represents sale proceeds, less transaction costs and the net asset value of NEH. The Managing Shareholder waived its right to receive its 1% of the distributions from this transaction. As a result, the loss from the sale and related cash distributions were allocated solely to Investor Shares.

5. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

On March 20, 2007, the Paul Bergeron Trust (“Bergeron”) commenced a derivative action on behalf of the Fund, in Suffolk County Superior Court, Commonwealth of Massachusetts. Bergeron joined the Fund and affiliated entities, including the Managing Shareholder and a person who is an officer of the Managing Shareholder, alleging that the allocation of the proceeds from the sale of certain assets of the Fund and affiliated entities was unfair. The derivative plaintiffs later amended the complaint to add a claim that the defendants breached fiduciary duties to the Fund and Trust V, by forming affiliated funds to finance the expansion of underlying projects in which each of the Fund and TrustV had an interest, rather than using alternative financing, which allegedly resulted in a misallocation of sale proceeds. In December 2011, the defendants agreed to a settlement agreement with the derivative plaintiffs, subject to approval by the Court. The defendants disputed the allegations, asserted that the financing transactions were fair and denied all wrongdoing, but agreed:

In January 2012, the Court gave its final approval of the settlement. The Court did not determine the merits of the plaintiff’s allegations, rendered no verdict and the settlement agreement is not an admission of any of the facts alleged by the plaintiffs or of any wrongdoing by the defendants. In March 2012, the cash portion of the settlement was made to the two funds, allocated in accordance with the agreement, and distributions made to their respective shareholders. The amount of cash distributed to the Fund shareholders totaled $3,457.

6. TRANSACTIONS WITH MANAGING SHAREHOLDER AND AFFILIATES

The Fund operates pursuant to the terms of a management agreement with the Managing Shareholder (“Management Agreement”). Under the terms of the Management Agreement, the Managing Shareholder provides certain management, administrative and advisory services, and provides office space to the Fund. The Fund has historically been obligated to pay the Managing Shareholder an annual management fee of $1,645, an amount equal to 2.5% of the total contributed capital of the Fund, as compensation for the services the Managing Shareholder provides to the Fund. The management fee was to be paid in monthly installments and, to the extent that the Fund did not pay the management fee on a timely basis, the Fund accrued interest at an annual rate of 10% on the unpaid balance. For the years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010, the Fund paid management fees of $25 and $1,028, respectively and waived the balances of management fees otherwise due. Beginning in 2012, the Managing Shareholder has agreed to cease charging management fees as part of the settlement agreement described in Note 5.

Under an Operating Agreement with the Fund, an affiliate of RRP, Ridgewood Power Management LLC (“RPM”) provided management, purchasing, engineering, planning and administrative services to the projects operated by the Fund. RPM charged the projects at its cost for these services and for the allocable amount of certain overhead items. Allocations of costs were on the basis of identifiable direct costs or in proportion to amounts invested in projects managed by RPM. For the year ended December 31, 2010, RPM charged the Fund’s projects $52 for overhead items allocated in proportion to the amount invested in projects managed by RPM; there were no similar expenses in 2011. In addition, for the year ended December 31, 2010, RPM charged the Fund’s projects $167 for identifiable direct expenses; there were no similar expenses in 2011. These charges may not be indicative of costs that would have been incurred if the projects were not operated by RPM.

Under the Fund’s Declaration of Trust (“Declaration of Trust”), the Managing Shareholder has historically been entitled to receive, concurrently with the shareholders of the Fund, other than the Managing Shareholder, 1% of all distributions from operations made by the Fund in a year until the shareholders received distributions in that year equal to 12% per annum of their equity contribution. Thereafter, the Managing Shareholder was entitled to receive 25% of the distributions for the remainder of the year. The Managing Shareholders was entitled to receive 1% of the proceeds from dispositions of Fund property until the shareholders, other than the Managing Shareholder, received cumulative distributions equal to their original investment (“Payout”). After Payout, the Managing Shareholder was entitled to receive 25% of all remaining distributions of the Fund. The Managing Shareholder did not receive any distributions during 2011 and 2010, and, as part of the settlement agreement described in Note 5, has agreed to waive any further distributions it otherwise might be entitled to receive. The Fund has not reached Payout and is not expected to do so.
