Subject to appropriate safeguards for the protection of Supplier’s proprietary information and upon reasonable advance request, Supplier also agrees to allow Purchaser’s staff regular access to its facilities to review the Accepted PO status and quality, and to provide a monthly report on schedule status. In the event that any portion of Exclusive Products or Exclusive Services falls behind agreed delivery schedule in respect of the applicable Accepted PO, Supplier shall (i) without prejudice to Purchaser’s rights under the Supplier Terms, provide periodic written reasonably detailed report on action items as needed with regard to the status of the Accepted PO completion and (ii) allow for on-site expediting by Purchaser or an agent appointed by them.

Following the Engineering Services Original Term, this Supply Agreement shall automatically renew solely with respect to the supply of HDGT Engineering Services for an additional term of five (5) years (together with the Engineering Services Original Term, the “Engineering Services Initial Term”). Six (6) months prior to the expiration of each of the HDGT Units Initial Term, the Exclusive Services Initial Term and the Engineering Services Initial Term, the Parties shall commence good faith discussions for a written extension of such term taking into consideration all prior supply and sourcing arrangements between the Parties. The HDGT Units Initial Term, the Exclusive Services Initial Term, the Engineering Services Initial Term, as applicable, plus any renewal term(s) are herein referred to as the “Term”. Upon the Termination Date, the terms of this Supply Agreement shall continue to govern all Accepted POs governed by this Supply Agreement that are entered into between the Parties prior to the Termination Date.

Section 8.02 Termination Events.

(a) Mutual Agreement. This Supply Agreement may be terminated upon the mutual written agreement of the Parties.

(b) Bankruptcy, Insolvency. Either Party may terminate this Supply Agreement immediately by written notice to the other Party upon the occurrence of any of the following events: (i) the other Party is or becomes insolvent or unable to pay its debts as they become due within the meaning of the United States Bankruptcy Code (or any successor statute) or any analogous foreign statute; (ii) the other Party appoints or has appointed a receiver for all or substantially all of its assets, or makes an assignment for the benefit of its creditors; (iii) the other Party files a voluntary petition under the United States Bankruptcy Code (or any successor statute) or any analogous foreign statute; or (iv) the other Party has filed against it an involuntary petition under the United States Bankruptcy Code (or any successor statute) or any analogous foreign statute, and such petition is not dismissed within ninety (90) days.

(i) In the event of a material breach by a Party of its other obligations hereunder (a “Material Breach”), the other Party (the “Non-breaching Party”) shall provide written notice to the first Party (the “Breaching Party”) as soon as reasonably practicable after the Non-breaching Party becomes aware of the occurrence of such Material Breach, which notice shall contain a description of such Material Breach in reasonable detail (a “Notice of Material Breach”). The failure or delay of the Non-breaching Party in delivery of a Notice of Material Breach shall not be deemed a waiver of any rights of the Non-breaching Party unless and to the extent such failure or delay materially and adversely affects the Breaching Party’s ability to cure such Material Breach. For the avoidance of doubt, any breach of the exclusivity provisions under Section 3.03 or Section 3.04 shall constitute a Material Breach for purposes of this Section 8.02(c) and shall be addressed solely as set forth in Section 3.03 or Section 3.04, as applicable.

(ii) The Breaching Party shall have the automatic right during forty five (45) day period in respect of a Material Breach following receipt of a Notice of Material Breach to cure such material breach (the “Initial Cure Period”). Any efforts by the Breaching Party to cure shall not be deemed an admission that the Breaching Party has committed a Material Breach. If the Breaching Party has promptly and diligently taken reasonable steps to cure but such cure has not been completed within the Initial Cure Period, then the period to cure shall be extended for a commercially reasonable time not to exceed thirty (30) days in respect of a Material Breach to enable such cure to be completed (the “Extended Cure Period”), provided that, the cure period shall not be extended if, notwithstanding all reasonable efforts, such cure could not be affected within the Extended Cure Period.

(iii) If the Breaching Party disputes that a Material Breach has occurred, or if a cure is not possible within the Initial Cure Period (or, if applicable, the Extended Cure Period), then senior management representatives of the Parties shall meet, no later than fifteen (15) days following delivery of written notice from one Party to the other Party requesting such meeting, to attempt to resolve such dispute. The Parties agree to use all reasonable efforts to fully resolve the dispute and to find a cure within the Initial Cure Period (or, if applicable, the Extended Cure Period). The Parties may extend the duration of such dispute resolution proceedings for such period of time as may be mutually agreed in writing. If the Parties have not resolved such dispute by the end of thirty (30) days following the written notice requesting a dispute resolution meeting of senior management, then the Non-breaching Party may terminate the Supply Agreement by delivering written notice to such effect to the Breaching Party (the “Notice of Termination”). Termination shall be without prejudice to any rights or remedies to which Supplier or Purchaser may be entitled under this Supply Agreement or applicable Law, including the right to seek damages, specific performance and/or injunctive relief.

(d) Breaches of Accepted POs. For the avoidance of doubt, the breach of an individual Accepted PO shall not constitute a breach of this Supply Agreement; provided, however, Supplier may terminate this Supply Agreement upon notice to Purchaser: (i) for material and repeated breaches of Accepted POs (other than payment obligations under such Accepted PO) by Purchaser that Purchaser has not cured within one hundred eighty (180) days following written notice of default from Supplier, or (ii) defaults by Purchaser of its payment obligations under any Accepted POs, for outstanding undisputed amounts, from time to time, individually or in the aggregate, in excess of (A) $20 million for Exclusive Products and (B) $10 million for Exclusive Services, excluding agreed rejected materials or settled delivery issues.

(e) Termination of the Distribution Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, this Supply Agreement shall not terminate (i) upon a termination of the Exclusive Products Appointment or the Exclusive Services Appointment (each as defined in the Distribution Agreement) or (ii) the termination of Supplier’s or Purchaser’s obligations under Section 3.01(a) or Section 3.01(b), respectively.

Section 8.03 Effect of Termination.

(a) Subject to Section 8.03(b), the expiration or earlier termination of this Supply Agreement shall not relieve any Party of any of its rights or liabilities arising prior to or upon such expiration or earlier termination, including under any pending Accepted POs executed between the Parties.

(b) Upon expiration or termination of this Supply Agreement, Purchaser’s use of the name and trademarks of GE and/or its Affiliates, including the words “General Electric” or “GE” with respect to Exclusive Products and in connection with the provision of Exclusive Services shall be governed by the Amended and Restated Trademark License.

(c) The acceptance of any PO from, or the sale or provision of any Exclusive Products or Exclusive Services to Purchaser, after the expiration or termination of this Supply Agreement shall not be construed as a renewal or extension hereof, nor as a waiver of termination, but in the absence of a written agreement signed by one of the authorized representatives of Supplier herein, all such transactions shall be governed by provisions identical to the provisions of this Supply Agreement.

(d) Upon a termination of the Supply Agreement pursuant to Section 8.02(d), the Parties will use reasonable efforts to enter into a new supply agreement for Exclusive Products and Exclusive Services on terms that reflect pricing, standard terms, lead times and product scope consistent with the supply relationship of the Parties prior to the Effective Date.

Term Sheet

The following summarizes the principal terms of an Exclusive Distributor Agreement (the “Distribution Agreement”), proposed to be entered into among General Electric Company, a New York corporation, acting through its GE Power business unit (“GE Power”), and legal entities operating on its behalf, and Xxxxx Xxxxxx, a GE company, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, on behalf of itself and its Affiliates (“BHGE”), pursuant to which GE Power will appoint BHGE, acting through its Affiliates to be its exclusive distributor of the Exclusive Products (as defined below) within the O&G Segment. GE Power shall sell to BHGE, and BHGE shall purchase from GE Power, as BHGE’s sole supplier, 100% of BHGE’s requirements of Exclusive Products pursuant to that certain HDGT Supply Agreement, dated as of November 13, 2018, between GE Power and BHGE (the “Supply Agreement”).

Exclusivity

For the duration of the Term of the Distribution Agreement, in compliance with applicable Law, GE Power will appoint BHGE to be its exclusive distributor (exclusive also vis-à-vis GE Power) for the Exclusive Products within the O&G Segment (and BHGE may not provide, directly or indirectly, the Exclusive Products outside of the O&G Segment). In each case, such distribution exclusivity will require the same commitment as the supply and purchase exclusivity set forth in Section 3.01(a) and Section 3.02 of the Supply Agreement.

The above exclusivity is subject to the following exceptions, where GE Power will have exclusivity (vis-à-vis BHGE):

· Opportunities to sell non-mechanical drive F (excluding 6F.01) HDGTs and HA HDGTs to customers within the O&G Segment including natural gas-based fertilizer customers;

· Opportunities to sell HDGTs to customers within the O&G Segment where more than 50% of the power generated by such Exclusive Products will be dispatched to the grid; and

· Opportunities to sell HDGTs to independent power producers (“IPPs”) end users within the O&G Segment that sell power to such IPPs’ end user, unless such end user specifies an American Petroleum Institute configuration.

In addition:

· BHGE shall have a non-exclusive right to purchase GE Power’s BOP Equipment in respect of Exclusive Products under the terms of the Supply Agreement.

· GE Power shall have the right to communicate with customers within the O&G Segment that purchase gas turbines with a maximum rating of less than 20MW for plants at or below 25MW total plant size (“Low MW HDGTs”) from BHGE

for the purpose of providing products and services other than heavy duty gas turbines;

For the avoidance of doubt, (a) sales within the O&G Segment of Low MW HDGTs are exclusive to BHGE and (b) sales outside of the O&G Segment of Low MW HDGTs shall be non-exclusive to either Party.

· BHGE shall be prohibited from manufacturing, purchasing or distributing HDGT spare parts in conjunction with any original equipment manufacturers within the O&G Segment, and will exclusively source such HDGT spare parts from GE Power; provided, however, that this obligation shall exclude parts and components that BHGE currently manufactures or sources independently from third party suppliers as set forth on an appendix to the Supply Agreement; and any types of Services that Purchaser as of the date hereof performs independently or subcontracts to third party suppliers.

· The Parties acknowledge that the O&G Segment includes the opportunity to sell Exclusive Products to customers otherwise within the O&G Segment where fifty percent (50%) or less of the power generated by such Exclusive Products will be dispatched to the grid, but not where more than fifty percent (50%) of such power generated will be dispatched to the grid, such latter case being exclusively an opportunity of Supplier, in each case, subject to the exclusivity provisions and the exceptions thereto set forth in the Distribution Agreement.

BHGE will provide GE Power a customary right of first refusal to participate on any BHGE NPI development of heavy duty gas turbines.

Steering Committee

The parties shall establish no later than thirty (30) days following the date of the Distribution Agreement a governance council (a “Steering Committee”) that will oversee all aspects of the relationships contemplated by the Distribution Agreement. Each Party shall designate four (4) (or such other number as the parties mutually agree) persons to serve as members of such Steering Committee, which such persons shall be the respective Marketing or Sales Executives and Product Leadership Executives (collectively, the “Senior Sales Leaders”) of GE Power and BHGE, respectively.

From time to time, as required, at mutually agreed locations or telephonically, but no less than quarterly, the Steering Committee shall meet to review, among other things:

· the prices of the Exclusive Products as provided in the Supply Agreement;

· standard lead times and cycle time targets as provided in the Supply Agreement;

· developments of HDGT New Units and Control Products, in each case, that are natural extensions or derivatives of such (“Derivatives”); and if BHGE elects to include such Derivatives in the Exclusive Products, the Steering Committee shall

	discuss in good faith any adjustment to the pricing for the supply of such Derivatives; · potential adoption by BHGE of a control product that is a technological upgrade that contemplates more than a de minimis new product introduction investment from Supplier or its affiliates (e.g., a Xxxx VII) and its exclusive use in BHGE’s installed base, in each case subject to agreement on the scope of such exclusivity and pricing for such adoption, supply and exclusivity; and · any disputes between the parties. The review, approval or disapproval of all decisions by the Steering Committee shall be made by unanimous consent of the members of the Steering Committee. The Steering Committee shall have the power to mediate disputes between or among the Senior Sales Leaders of GE Power and BHGE. In the event the Steering Committee does not reach agreement with respect to any dispute that requires a resolution, the Steering Committee may be enlarged to include additional members, which such persons shall be the P&L VP, CFO, General Manager or Vice President of GE Power and BHGE, respectively, in order to reach such resolution.
Term	The term of the Distribution Agreement shall commence on the Trigger Date (as defined in the Amended and Restated Stockholders Agreement) and, unless earlier terminated, shall continue for a period of five years (the “Term”). Six months prior to the expiration of the Term, the parties shall commence good faith discussion regarding an extension of the Distribution Agreement in line with all prior supply and sourcing arrangements between the parties.

Termination	The exclusivity arrangements under this Distribution Agreement may be terminated pursuant to Section 3.03, Section 3.04 or Article VIII, as applicable, of the Supply Agreement.
Engineering	Technical and commercial support in ITO and pre-ITO (pre-RFP) will be provided free of charge through GE Power’s sales organization (for the avoidance of doubt, such services are the services 1 to 7 per the attached APPENDIX 3 entitled “HDGT Engineering Services Guidelines”). Specific engineering studies will be charged on a cost plus basis, with margin at 10%.

	BHGE will be granted access to GE Power’s engineering resources for the purpose of addressing customer field issues, on a cost plus basis (margin at 10%). Per the attached appendix entitled “Engineering Services Guidelines Attachment”, engineering services will be provided on a cost-plus basis (margin at 10%).
Intellectual Property	Any intellectual property in respect of Exclusive Products shall be governed by the Amended and Restated Intellectual Property Cross License, dated as of November 13, 2018, between GE and BHGE.
Definitions	Capitalized terms used but not defined herein shall have the respective meanings ascribed to such terms in the Supply Agreement.
Other Terms	All other terms and conditions necessary for a final Distribution Agreement and related agreements (e.g., Termination, Applicable Law, Dispute Resolution, Construction, etc.) shall be as per the Supply Agreement.

4. Opportunities to provide products and services to certain heavy duty gas turbines in GE Power’s installed base within the O&G Segment as listed on Appendix 9-1 to the Supply Agreement.

In addition:

· BHGE may not provide, directly or indirectly, Exclusive Services outside of the

O&G Segment except to the extent BHGE is providing such Exclusive Services to certain heavy duty gas turbines in BHGE’s installed base as listed on Appendix 9-2 to the Supply Agreement.

For the avoidance of doubt, (a) sales within the O&G Segment of Low MW HDGTs are exclusive to BHGE and (b) sales outside of the O&G Segment of Low MW HDGTs shall be non-exclusive to either Party.

· BHGE shall be prohibited from manufacturing, purchasing or distributing Exclusive Services in conjunction with any original equipment manufacturers within the O&G Segment, and will exclusively source such Exclusive Services from GE Power; provided, however, that this obligation shall exclude parts and components that BHGE currently manufactures or sources independently from third party suppliers as set forth on an appendix to the Supply Agreement; and any types of Services that Purchaser as of the date hereof performs independently or subcontracts to third party suppliers.

· The Parties acknowledge that the O&G Segment includes the opportunity to sell Exclusive Services to customers otherwise within the O&G Segment where fifty percent (50%) or less of the power generated by such Exclusive Services will be dispatched to the grid, but not where more than fifty percent (50%) of such power generated will be dispatched to the grid, such latter case being exclusively an opportunity of Supplier, in each case, subject to the exclusivity provisions and the exceptions thereto set forth in the Distribution Agreement.

BHGE will provide GE Power a customary right of first refusal to participate on any BHGE new product introduction (“NPI”) development of heavy duty gas turbines.

Intellectual Property

Any intellectual property in respect of Exclusive Services shall be governed by the Amended and Restated Intellectual Property Cross License, dated as of November 13, 2018, between GE and BHGE.

Frame 3/Frame 5 License

Further, GE Power and BHGE shall enter into an amendment (“Amendment”) to that certain Agreement between Nuovo Xxxxxxx s.p.a. (“Nuovo Xxxxxxx”) and GE relating to Heavy Duty Gas Turbines, dated November 10, 1995, that certain Technical Assistance Agreement between GE and Nuovo Xxxxxxx dated August 31, 1995 and that certain Manufacturing Associate Agreement between GE and Nuovo Xxxxxxx dated April 8, 1988 (collectively, the “Nuovo Xxxxxxx Agreements”) as necessary to reflect the terms set forth herein whereby GE Power shall grant to BHGE the following:

1. A worldwide, perpetual, non-transferrable, non-sublicensable (except as noted below), license under GE Power’s intellectual property for the Frame 3 and Frame 5 gas turbine in the O&G Segment to develop, make, have made, use, sell, commercialize and provide Services for, (i) Frame 3 and Frame 5 gas turbines and (ii) parts and components for use in Frame 3 and Frame 5 gas turbines (such license, the “License”), with Access to Technology (as defined below). “Access to Technology” shall mean, in connection with the License, access to Frame 3 and Frame 5 Engineering Licensed Tools (as defined therein) of GE Power pursuant to Section 6.05 of that certain Supply and Technology Development Agreement, dated as of November 13, 2018, by and among GE, acting through its GE Aviation business unit and the legal entities operating on its behalf, BHGE LLC and GE, on behalf of its GE Power business (the “JV Supply Agreement”); provided, however, Access to Technology shall be limited to BHGE and shall be non-transferrable, and no separate access to GE Power technology shall be granted; and provided, further, that the License shall not change or affect the scope or terms of any access to technology granted under the JV Supply Agreement. BHGE may permit its suppliers, contractors, distributors and consultants to exercise any or all of the rights and licenses granted to BHGE under the foregoing license on behalf of and at the direction of BHGE (and not for the benefit of such suppliers, contractors and consultants) and may request consent from GE Power to grant permissions to other third parties to exercise any or all of the rights and licenses granted to BHGE under the foregoing license, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed by GE Power.

Such license shall be exclusive (also vis-à-vis GE Power), in each case of (i) and (ii), solely within the O&G Segment (excluding where GE Power has exclusivity pursuant to the Exclusivity section herein (“GE Power Exclusive Field”)). The foregoing license shall be exclusive for a period of twenty (20) years commencing on the Effective Date (“License Term”),

after which time the foregoing license shall be non-exclusive; provided, however, that such exclusivity shall terminate if (a) the Supplier Sourcing Share in respect of Frame 5 Parts and Components (as calculated pursuant to Section 3.04(b) of the Supply Agreement) reduces in any given twenty-four (24) month period during such License Term by 30% as compared to such Supplier Sourcing Share with respect to such Frame 5 Part and Component purchased from Supplier in the most recently completed twenty-four (24) month period during such License Term (a “Triggering Reduction”) or (b) upon the occurrence of a Change in Control of BHGE (a “Change of Control”) (such termination as a result of a Triggering Reduction or a Change of Control, in each case, a “Termination of Exclusivity”). The Parties agree that a Termination of Exclusivity shall be the sole and exclusive remedy for GE Power with respect to a Triggering Reduction or a Change of Control.

The foregoing exclusivity shall be subject to GE Power retaining the limited right to develop, make, have made, supply and use (such use limited for the purposes set forth in clause (ii) below) Frame 3 and Frame 5 gas turbine parts and components to (i) perform its obligations under the Supply Agreement and (ii) service its installed base of heavy duty gas turbines fleet as listed on Appendix 9-1 to the Supply Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, GE retains all rights within the GE Power Exclusive Field, including all rights to make, have made, supply, sell and use components for use in Frame 3 and Frame 5 gas turbines in the GE Power Exclusive Field. GE Power will consult with BHGE in good faith with respect to any NPIs in respect of Frame 3 and Frame 5 Parts and Components resulting from GE Power’s development activities under the foregoing license retention. Further, GE Power’s sublicensing of such rights in the GE Power Exclusive Field shall be subject to a right of first offer in favor of BHGE (on reasonably customary terms with reasonable customary timing) to perform such sublicensed service.

Payments for the licenses above shall be equal to BHGE’s ongoing payment obligations to GE pursuant to the Nuovo Xxxxxxx Agreements. The exclusivity granted to BHGE in the license above shall be subject to any licenses with third parties existing as of the date of the Supply Agreement, which shall be listed in a schedule to be agreed upon.

If a final FR3/FR5 License between the Parties is not agreed upon by the Trigger Date, the terms included in this Section “FR3/FR5 License” of the term sheet shall become definitive between the Parties.

Non-GE Components

Each Party shall have the right to create their own supply chain for their respective segments by working directly with qualified suppliers for parts/components that GE Power or BHGE currently purchase fully from external suppliers for such segments (e.g., auxiliary skids, instrumentation, etc.). The parties shall identify the list of such parts and services for which they can maintain/establish a supply chain, which shall be strictly for their respective segment. BHGE shall require all suppliers to restrict their use of any GE Power intellectual property to be used

	solely for the O&G Segment. Each Party shall grant access to each other’s technical specs and supplier base as needed.
Technology Obsolescence	If GE Power determines that parts/components are obsolete and GE Power will no longer supply such obsolete parts/component or a reasonable replacement or alternative part/component, then GE Power will provide to BHGE a nonexclusive, perpetual, worldwide, license for such parts/component at a mutually agreeable price. The foregoing shall not apply where parts/components have been upgraded and the prior parts/components are no longer commercially available.
Definitions	Capitalized terms used but not defined herein shall have the respective meanings ascribed to such terms in the Supply Agreement.
Other Terms	All other terms and conditions necessary for a final Distribution Agreement and related agreements (e.g., Termination, Applicable Law, Dispute Resolution, Construction, etc.) shall be as per the Supply Agreement.
