Modifications to Terminal Generally. The Parties agree that, after the date hereof, SABINE shall be entitled to modify the Sabine Pass Facility in any manner whatsoever, provided that: (x) such modifications do not render the Sabine Pass Facility incompatible with an LNG Vessel that was previously compatible with the Sabine Pass Facility under Section 7.2(b) above; (y) such modifications, once finalized, do not reduce the ability of SABINE to provide the Services to Customer on the basis set forth in this Agreement; and (z) such modifications do not otherwise conflict with SABINE’s obligations under this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, SABINE may modify the Sabine Pass Facility in a manner that would render it incompatible with an LNG Vessel provided that: (i) such modification is necessary for SABINE to comply with its obligations under Section 7.1(a); or (ii) the LNG Vessel is capable of being modified, and such modification is minor in nature, to maintain compatibility with both the Sabine Pass Facility and other terminals in its normal/intended trade and, in connection with a modification, SABINE reimburses Customer for the reasonable actual costs incurred by Customer in causing Transporter to modify the LNG Vessel to maintain compatibility with the Sabine Pass Facility as so modified; provided, further, that Customer shall use its best efforts to minimize costs to be borne by SABINE hereunder, shall notify SABINE reasonably in advance of the nature and expected cost of all such LNG Vessel modifications by Transporter, and shall certify to SABINE the actual amount and detail of all costs incurred for which such reimbursement from SABINE is requested.
