QUALITY OF GAS. WELL FLUIDS

§ 8

8.1 The pressure and chemical composition of the Gas at the Delivery Point shall depend on the field and production conditions. The Seller shall not be obliged to treat the Gas in any way. The Purchaser represents that it enters into the Agreement being fully aware of the uncertainty of the quantitative and qualitative parameters of the Gas (including the calorific value) and shall not raise any claims or objections on this account against the Seller or parties acting for the Seller, and shall not evade the performance of the Agreement, subject to the provisions of Sections 5.3 and 8.3.

PRICE

§ 14

14.1 Subject to other provisions hereof, the Purchaser shall pay the Gas Price (PGU) for all the Gas delivered and taken.

14.2 Gas Price (PGU) shall be expressed in PLN/1000 m³ and calculated according to the following formula:

PGU = 60 * K + R + Op

Where:

K = the mid-exchange rate of the Polish zloty against the US dollar, published by the President of the National Bank of Poland for the last day of the Contract Month concerned, and if no such a rate is published for that day, the rate published for the closest subsequent day shall apply.

R – a supplementary rate on account of the reduction of development costs, calculated as the product of a coefficient equaling 10^-4 (ten to the power of minus four) and ½ (half) of the positive difference between the planned value of net expenditures on the development of the Grabówka Field, amounting to PLN 12,400,000 (twelve million, four hundred thousand Zloty) and the actual value of those expenditures, covered by the Purchaser in accordance with § 7 (not including the costs of constructing the Gas Offtake System or the Mining Installations not constituting Well Installations) incurred up to the date of obtaining the Production Concession. The supplementary rate R shall apply after obtaining the Production Concession, with respect to the first 10 MM. (ten million) Nm³ of Gas purchased hereunder since the beginning of the Contract Month following the month in which the Production Concession is obtained. Once the Purchaser has purchased 10 million Nm³ of Gas, starting from the Contract Month specified above, the supplementary rate R shall be zero with respect to further quantities of Gas. If the difference referred to above is negative, the supplementary rate R shall be zero.

Op – a supplementary rate on account of the Operator’s operating costs calculated for each Contract Year as the quotient of the Operator’s total remuneration in the given Contract Year and the quantity of Gas sold under the Agreement in the same period (expressed in thousand Nm³), provided that the Op rate applicable in each Contract Year shall be calculated on the basis of the costs and sales planned by Seller for the given Contract Year. Within 15 days of the lapse of the Contract Year, the Seller shall present the Purchaser with a calculation based on actual figures, and the difference, if any, shall be settled in the invoice for the following Contract Month.

14.3 Numbers used in the calculation of the Gas Price shall be rounded up or down to the fifth (5) decimal place, and the resulting PGU values shall be rounded up or down to the second (2) decimal place. Numbers shall be rounded down if the digit subject to rounding is in the range between 0 and 5 inclusive, and shall be rounded up if the digit subject to rounding is in the range between 6 and 9.

14.4 The Gas Price and all other amounts stated herein are net of VAT, excise, any similar tax or public charges. The Purchaser shall pay the Seller (or the relevant tax administration, if so required by the applicable regulations) all amounts due in respect of the VAT, excise and any other indirect or similar taxes or public charges imposed with respect to the delivery and sale of the Gas hereunder.

11

14.5 To the extent not covered by Section 14.4, the Seller shall be responsible for the payment of the royalties in accordance with the Geological and Mining Law (subject to § 7), as well as all taxes or any other public charges imposed in respect of the recovery, production, processing, transportation, supply or sale of the Gas to the Delivery Point, and the Purchaser shall be responsible for the payment of all taxes or any other public charges charged or imposed in respect of the Gas downstream of the Delivery Point.
