KEY PERSONNEL.

The Contractor’s organizational structure for the performance of the Work is provided in Exhibit K.

All requests for the substitution of Key Personnel shall include a detailed explanation and reason for the request and the resumes of professional education and experience for a minimum of two (2) candidates of suitable qualifications and experience. Owner shall respond within ten (10) days of receiving the resumes with its written approval or detailed comments as to why approval is not granted. Should Owner approve of the replacement of a Key Personnel, Contractor shall allow for an overlap of a minimum of two (2) weeks during which both the Key Personnel to be replaced and the Owner-approved new Key Personnel shall work together full time. Owner may if it is concerned with the performance thereof request in writing the removal of, and Contractor shall promptly remove and replace, any Key Personnel.

Any lien or encumbrance filed by Contractor shall be limited in scope to secure payment by Owner of the amount at issue in any applicable dispute resolution proceeding. Upon Owner’s payment of such amount, Contractor shall immediately, and in any event within seven (7) Days of such payment, effect release (and certify thereto) of any such lien or encumbrance. For the avoidance of doubt, if a dispute resolution proceeding is brought within the applicable statute of limitations, but the outcome of such proceeding is not determined until after the statute of limitations has expired, the Parties agree to waive the statute of limitations in order to effect the outcome of such dispute resolution proceeding.

Contractor agrees to comply with reasonable requests of Owner for supporting documentation required by the Lenders in connection with such subordination, including any necessary lien subordination and other agreements and the filing of necessary documentation to effectuate such subordination. Nothing in this Section 6.4.3 shall be construed as a limitation on or waiver by Contractor of any of its rights under applicable Law to file a lien or claim or otherwise encumber the Facility as security for any undisputed payments owed to it by Owner hereunder which are past due; provided that such lien, claim or encumbrance shall be subordinate to any liens granted in favor of the Lenders.

It is understood and agreed by the Parties that any Request for Payment which is non-conforming, to the extent of such non-conformance, shall not constitute a valid and proper Request for Payment, and Owner shall not be obligated to make payment of any disputed amounts related to such non-conformance until Contractor revises the Request for Payment or submits a Request for Payment in proper form.

Owner shall make payment of the net amount specified in each Request for Payment submitted in accordance with Section 6.3, less (i) any disputed portion of such Request for Payment, (ii) any undisputed amounts payable by Contractor to Owner hereunder from the immediately preceding billing period and (iii) any other Owner withholding rights explicitly set forth herein, not later than the last Business Day of the month immediately following the month in which such Request for Payment was received by Owner; provided, however, that if Contractor submits such Request for Payment to Owner after the 15th day of the relevant month, the time period within which Owner shall be obligated to make payment hereunder shall be extended by such number of days following such 15th day for which such Request for Payment was not submitted.

6.8.2 Owner’s right to withhold amounts pursuant to this Section 6.8 shall not be deemed to in any way reduce Owner’s rights to withhold amounts due to Contractor under any other Section hereof. If Owner withholds amounts pursuant to this Section 6.8, Owner shall promptly inform Contractor of the reason therefor and once Contractor has corrected the reasons for the withholding, Owner shall pay the said withheld amount with the next Request for Payment submitted by Contractor. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, Contractor shall not have any rights of termination or suspension as a result of Owner’s exercise of its rights under this Section 6.8.

6.9

RELEASE OF LIABILITY.

thereof (except for routine in process inspections). Owner shall at any time have the right to reject, or to direct Contractor to reject, any such portion of the Work, including any design, engineering, Materials, installation, tools or supplies, which in Owner’s reasonable judgment do not conform to the provisions hereof, including the requirements set forth in Exhibit A and the Drawings and Specifications, or which contain Defects or Deficiencies. Upon such rejection, Contractor shall as soon as practicable under the circumstances, but in no case later than the commencement of the Performance Tests, remedy any such condition identified by Owner as giving rise to such rejection. In the case of discovered defects or deficiencies in Owner Furnished Equipment or Material, Contractor shall promptly notify Owner. Copies of all test certificates, performance curves and data sheets required by Owner shall be supplied by Contractor to Owner’s Representative in reproducible form. Sufficient information is to be given on all test certificates, performance curves and data sheets to enable the Materials to which they refer to be identified.

10.4

THIRD PARTY INSPECTION.

Contractor understands that the Owner Designees or the Lenders, and certain Government Authorities have or shall have the right, from time to time, to observe and inspect the Work and the Facility and to observe all tests of the Work and the Facility. Contractor shall allow such third-party inspectors access to the Work and the Facility and to the Contractor’s technical and design records pertaining thereto, so long as either Owner’s Representative is present or Contractor has obtained the prior written approval of Owner. Owner agrees to protect as confidential anything designated by Contractor as such, whether by notation thereon or separate Notice; provided that in no event shall Owner be liable to Contractor for the failure of any party (other than Owner) to comply with the confidentiality requirements of Contractor.

10.5

EFFECT OF WAIVER OF INSPECTION RIGHTS.

In the event that Owner or the Owner Designees shall waive or fail to exercise their right to test and inspect as herein provided, such waiver or failure shall in no way relieve Contractor of its obligations to perform the Work, or any part of it, in accordance with this Agreement, nor shall such waiver or failure prejudice or affect the rights of Owner or the Owner Designees set forth herein; nor shall any test or inspection by Owner, any Lenders or the Owner Designees or any failure to test or inspect be construed as an approval or acceptance of the Work or any part thereof. However, if any test or inspection is otherwise successful, the failure of any or all of Owner or the Owner Designees to attend such test or inspection shall not alter the successful nature of the test or inspection; provided, however, that Contractor shall promptly provide to Owner detailed information of the test or inspection, including the information specified in Section 10.3.

If: (a) Contractor performs the Facility Performance Tests in accordance with this Agreement and the Facility fails to successfully pass

CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT REQUESTED PURSUANT TO RULE 83

all of the Facility Performance Tests [***] times, or (b) Contractor performs the Facility Performance Tests in accordance with this Agreement and the Facility fails to successfully pass all of the Facility Performance Tests within [***] days after the LPS4 Substantial Completion Date (the earlier to occur of such events, the “Make Good Commencement Date”), then from and after the Make Good Commencement Date Contractor shall be obligated hereunder to perform all Work necessary to successfully pass all of the Facility Performance Tests as soon as reasonably practicable following the Make Good Commencement Date, subject to any Owner Caused Delay impacting its performance after the Make Good Commencement Date, at its sole cost and expense. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, Owner shall have no obligation to pay any Direct Costs, Contractor’s G&A or Contractor’s Margin incurred by Contractor after the Make Good Commencement Date in connection with such Work (excluding, for the avoidance of doubt, any Work that is necessary solely to facilitate the performance by an Owner Contractor of its warranty or make good obligations to Owner in respect of the Owner Furnished Equipment and Materials from and after the Make Good Commencement Date). Without limiting the foregoing, Contractor acknowledges and agrees that its obligation to perform all Work necessary to successfully pass all of the Facility Performance Tests is an absolute, unconditional, “must meet” obligation and is not subject to any limitation on liability or reduction by the payment of liquidated damages or otherwise. Upon successfully passing the Facility Performance Tests, Contractor shall be entitled to payment of its Direct Costs and Contractor’s G&A and Contractor’s Margin applicable thereto in connection with any Reimbursable Work performed after the Facility Substantial Completion Date.

20.9.2 Upon the earlier of Final Completion or termination of this Agreement, Contractor shall assign to Owner all warranties received by it from Subcontractors that are not otherwise issued in Owner’s name.

However, in the event that Owner makes any warranty claim against Contractor with respect to any portion of the Work supplied in whole or in part by any Subcontractor, and Contractor fulfills its obligations with respect to such claim by Owner, Contractor shall be entitled to enforce for its own benefit any warranty given by such Subcontractor with respect to such portion of the Work.

20.11.2 In the event of an emergency and if, in the judgment of Owner, the delay that would result from giving prior notice to Contractor could cause serious loss or damage which could be prevented by immediate action, any action (including correction of Defects) may be taken by Owner or a third party chosen by Owner, without giving prior notice to Contractor. In the event such action is taken by Owner, Contractor shall be promptly notified after Corrective Work is implemented, and shall assist whenever and wherever possible in making the necessary corrections.

Upon Owner’s request, Contractor shall use all reasonable efforts to force Subcontractors or Agent For Contractors to honor warranties including filing suit to enforce same.

20.12

The indemnifying party shall have no liability under this Article 30 for any claim or action for which the indemnified party has admitted any liability or which such Notice is not provided to the extent that such failure to give Notice actually and materially prejudices the indemnifying party’s ability to defend against such claim. In case any such action is brought against any indemnified party and it provides Notice to the indemnifying party of the commencement thereof, the indemnifying party shall assume on behalf of such indemnified party, and conduct with due diligence and in good faith, the defense of any such action against such person, whether or not the indemnifying party is joined therein; provided, however, that, without relieving the indemnifying party of its obligations hereunder, the indemnified party may elect to participate, at its expense, in the defense of any such suit.

right to assume the defense of any such claim or action with counsel designated by the indemnifying party and reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party, provided, however, that if the defendants in any such action include both indemnifying party and the indemnified party, and the indemnified party shall have reasonably concluded that there may be legal defenses available to it which are different from or additional to those available to the indemnifying party, the indemnified party shall have the right to select separate counsel to assert such legal defenses and to otherwise participate in the defense of such action on behalf of such indemnified party, the cost of which shall be subject to indemnification under this Article 30.

30.4.2 Should any indemnified party be entitled to indemnification under this Article 30 and should the indemnifying party fail to assume the defense of such claim or action, the indemnified party may, at the expense of the indemnifying party contest (or, with the prior consent of the indemnifying party, settle) such claim or action. No indemnifying party shall, without the prior written consent of the indemnified party, effect any settlement of any pending or threatened action in respect of which any indemnified party is or could have been a party and indemnity could have been sought hereunder by such indemnified party unless such settlement includes an unconditional release of such indemnified party from all liability on any claims that are the subject matter of such a pending or threatened action.

30.5

REMEDIES NOT EXCLUSIVE.

The rights of indemnity shall not be exclusive with respect to any other right or remedy provided for herein.

30.6

TAX EFFECT OF INDEMNIFICATION.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, any indemnity payments owed by a Party shall be reduced by any tax benefits to the indemnified Person and increased by any tax detriments to the indemnified Person resulting from such indemnity payment (including tax detriments resulting from any additional indemnity payments pursuant to the provisions of this Section 30.6), such tax benefits or detriments, if not mutually agreed by the Parties, to be determined by an independent, mutually agreed upon tax consultant.

EXHIBIT X

COST OVERRUN AND COST SAVING ADJUSTMENTS

The purpose of this Exhibit is to describe the process for calculating the amount of any adjustment to the cost overrun and cost saving values in Section 8.2 and Section 8.3 of the Agreement, respectively (the “Values”), on the basis of any changes in the cost of labor, materials and equipment if Notice to Proceed Date occurs after [***]. This Exhibit X does not address the adjustments to the Project Schedule that may be required under Section 4.1.4 of the Agreement.

Adjustment Principles

•

The Values will be increased or decreased depending on the total changes to the cost of staff, labor, materials and equipment determined pursuant to this Exhibit X. A Cost Increase (as defined below) will result in an increase to the Values in Section 8.2 of the Agreement and a decrease to the Values in Section 8.3 of the Agreement. Conversely, a Cost Decrease (as defined below) will result in a decrease to the Values in Section 8.2 of the Agreement and an increase to the Values in Section 8.3 of the Agreement.

•

If the Notice to Proceed Date occurs after [***], Contractor shall conduct a complete review of the impacts to all staff, labor, materials and equipment components of the Direct Cost between [***] and the Notice to Proceed Date, following the procedures described below.

•

The maximum decrease to each Value in Section 8.2.1 of the Agreement and the maximum increase to each Value in Section 8.3.1 of the Agreement is [***].

•

If the Cost Increase or Cost Decrease is determined to be less than [***], the Values shall not be adjusted.

Method of Calculation

Contractor shall evaluate the impacts to all staff, labor, materials and equipment components of the Direct Cost between [***] and the Notice to Proceed Date and adjust the values of such components, positive or negative, as follows:

•

Contractor shall, where practicable, update the equipment pricing and deliveries. The technical specification of the equipment is to remain unchanged. Bid updates will be used when available. If priced internally, Contractor is to re-evaluate prices based on the current market conditions relative to in-house metrics as defined by agreed indices described below.

•

Materials pricing shall be adjusted by the percentage change in the relevant commodity reflected in the London Metal Exchange (available at xxx.xxx.xxx) or IHS Markit.

CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT REQUESTED PURSUANT TO RULE 83

Execution Version

•

Labor total craft compensation (wage rate, per diem, etc.) components shall be adjusted utilizing data from Alpha Resources, LLC (Gulf Coast region).

•

Staff total compensation shall be adjusted utilizing data to be mutually agreed between the Parties.

Contractor shall aggregate all adjustments described above to calculate a total increase or decrease in the staff, labor, materials and equipment components of the Direct Cost since [***]. An amount equal to [***] reflecting the escalation factor in the Target Price calculation shall be deducted from such total increase or decrease to yield the “Cost Increase” or “Cost Decrease”, as applicable.

Procedure

•

Within [***] days following the Notice to Proceed Date, Contractor shall submit to Owner its calculation of Cost Increase or Cost Decrease based on the method set forth above, together with reasonably detailed supporting documentation and agreed to invoices specified above.

•

Within [***] days following its receipt of Contractor’s calculations, Owner shall either accept or reject such calculations, stating the reasons for any rejection and providing any calculations in support of such rejection. If Owner accepts Contractor’s calculations, the Parties shall, subject to the principles set forth above, enter into an amendment to the Agreement to adjust the Values by an amount equal to one hundred percent of the Cost Increase or the Cost Decrease, as applicable.

•

If Owner rejects Contractor’s calculations, then within [***] days following its receipt of Owner’s rejection, Contractor shall either accept Owner’s calculations or reject such calculations and submit the matter for expert determination under the Agreement.

Examples

Contractor’s calculations result in a Cost Increase of [***]. Owner agrees with such calculations. The Agreement is amended to increase each Value in Section 8.2 of the Agreement by an amount equal to [***] and decrease each Value in Section 8.3 of the Agreement by an amount equal to [***].

Contractor’s calculations result in a Cost Decrease of [***]. Owner agrees with such calculations. The Agreement is amended to decrease each Value in Section 8.2 of the Agreement by an amount equal to [***] and increase each Value in Section 8.3 of the Agreement by [***].
