Commission Payments In consideration of the award of this Framework Agreement and the management, marketing and administration by the Authority of the overall contractual structure and associated documentation Contracted Customers will pay the Customer Commission to the Authority. The Supplier shall, unless the Authority notifies the Supplier that the Contracted Customers shall pay the Authority directly, collect the Customer Commission from the relevant Customers and then pay such Customer Commission to the Authority. The Supplier shall invoice each Contracted Customer each Month under the terms of this Framework Agreement and Customer Contracts. The Supplier shall submit to the Authority, on or before the fifth Day of each such Month or such other Day as is notified to the Supplier by the Authority a statement of the total Commission included in invoices to Contracted Customers under all Customer Contracts in the previous Month (“Monthly Statement”). The Parties may agree (such agreement not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed by the Supplier) alternative arrangements for Monthly Statements, including Monthly Statements based on an estimate of the Commission to be recovered under Customer Contracts (with periodic reconciliation against actuals). On receipt of the Monthly Statement the Authority may submit an invoice (“Commission Invoice”) to the Supplier (at its nominated address for invoices) in respect of the Commission set out in that Monthly Statement (“Commission Due”). The Commission Due, as set out in each Commission Invoice, shall be paid by the Supplier to the Authority within twenty (20) Working Days of the date of issue of the Commission Invoice (“Due Date”). Each Commission Invoice shall include Value Added Tax on the Commission Due at the rate and in the manner prescribed by Law from time to time. The Authority shall pay to HMRC an amount equal to any such Value Added Tax. If the Supplier does not pay the Commission Due by the Due Date, the Authority may charge the Supplier interest at a rate of three percent (3%) over LIBOR, as the same may vary from time to time, from the Due Date until such time as the Commission Due is received by the Authority. The Supplier shall be liable to the Authority for all direct costs incurred in collecting any Commission Due from the Supplier. If the Supplier disputes in good faith any Commission Invoice the Supplier shall pay any undisputed amount on or before the Due Date. The Supplier shall give the Authority notice of the amount in dispute and the reasons for the dispute as soon as reasonably practicable. The Parties shall seek to settle the disputed amount as soon as reasonably possible. If the Parties fail to resolve the disputed amount within twenty (20) Working Days of receipt by the Authority of the notice referred to in Clause 5.5, the matter shall be a Dispute and shall be settled in accordance with the Dispute resolution mechanism set out in Clause 16. Any adjustment payment required to be made in accordance with the resolution or determination of a Dispute under Clause 16 shall be made within three (3) Working Days of that resolution or determination.

Within the foregoing limits and subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, the Borrowers may borrow, prepay and reborrow Dollar Tranche Revolving Loans and Multicurrency Tranche Revolving Loans. Amounts repaid or prepaid in respect of Term Loans may not be reborrowed.
Payment and Collection Your bill will be based on monthly meter readings provided to XOOM Energy by your NGDC.

You represent that you are financially able and willing to fulfill the terms and conditions of this Agreement and that you have not filed, are not in the process of filing or plan to begin any bankruptcy proceedings. Your first bill payment will be due to the NGDC on the date specified in the NGDC bill. If you do not pay it on time, you could be subject to interest and late charges imposed by the NGDC, and your service could be disconnected.
