COEXISTENCE AND TRADEMARK MATTERS AGREEMENT

This COEXISTENCE AND TRADEMARK MATTERS AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”), is entered into effective as of February 15, 2021 (the “Effective Date”), by and between TechnipFMC plc, a public limited company formed under the Laws of England and Wales (“TFMC”) and Technip Energies N.V., a public limited liability company formed under the Laws of the Netherlands and a wholly owned subsidiary of TechnipFMC (“TEN”). TFMC and TEN are each a “Party” and are sometimes referred to herein collectively as the “Parties”.

RECITALS

WHEREAS, TFMC plc, acting together with its Subsidiaries, currently conducts the TFMC Business and the TEN Business;

WHEREAS, TFMC and TEN have entered into that certain Separation and Distribution Agreement, dated as of January 7, 2021 (the “Separation Agreement”) pursuant to which TEN will be separated from the rest of TFMC and will be established as a separate, publicly-traded company to operate the TEN Business;

WHEREAS, TFMC, together with its Affiliates, owns a family of Marks containing the element TECHNIP, including TECHNIP, TECHNIP FMC, and TECHNIP UMBILICALS, which were used in connection with both the TFMC Business and the TEN Business prior to the Separation;

WHEREAS, following the Separation, TFMC intends to continue to use the Technip-Formative Marks set forth in Annex II (the “TFMC Marks”) in connection with the TFMC Business; and TEN wishes to own and use the Technip-Formative Marks set forth in Annex III (the “TEN Marks”) in connection with the TEN Business, but has agreed to cease all use of the TFMC Marks, except as expressly set forth herein or in the Separation Agreement;

WHEREAS, in order to maintain the strength of the TFMC Marks and the TEN Marks, and in order to avoid any likelihood of confusion as to the source of their respective goods and services, the Parties have agreed to abide by certain restrictions in connection with the use and exploitation of the TFMC Marks and the TEN Marks, respectively, as specified in this Agreement;

WHEREAS, TFMC also owns certain Loading Arms Marks, and TEN desires (i) to use the Loading Arms Marks following the Separation on a transitional basis in connection with its marketing and sale of certain Loadings Arms Products, and (ii) to permit the continued use by Tokyo Boeki of the Loading Arms Marks following the Separation in accordance with the Tokyo Boeki License Agreement; and TFMC consents to the limited and transitional use of the Loading Arms Marks as specified in this Agreement.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and the mutual agreements, provisions and covenants contained in this Agreement, the Parties hereby agree as follows:

ARTICLE I.
OWNERSHIP

1.1 Ownership.

(a) TFMC Marks. TEN acknowledges that, as between the Parties, TFMC is the sole and exclusive owner of all right, title and interest in and to the TFMC Marks and any rights related thereto. TEN acknowledges and agrees that nothing in this Agreement shall give any member of the TEN Group any right, title, or interest in the TFMC Marks.

(b) TEN Marks. TFMC acknowledges that, as between the Parties, TEN is the sole and exclusive owner of all right, title and interest in and to the TEN Marks and any rights related thereto. TFMC acknowledges and agrees that nothing in this Agreement shall give any member of the TFMC Group any right, title, or interest in the TEN Marks. To the extent any of the TEN Marks are not owned as of the Effective Date by a member of the TEN Group, TFMC, on behalf of itself and the other members of the TFMC Group, hereby irrevocably assigns, conveys and transfers to TEN all right, title and interest in and to all TEN Marks, together with all goodwill associated therewith and the right to xxx or recover and retain damages and costs and attorneys’ fees for past, present and future infringement, dilution, passing off, misappropriation or other violation of the TEN Marks. TFMC shall, and shall cause all other members of the TFMC Group to, as applicable, execute and deliver all documents and take all other actions reasonably requested by TEN to effect the terms of this assignment, including recordation thereof in the applicable state and national trademark offices.

1.2 No Inconsistent Action.

(a) TFMC Marks. Without limiting TEN’s right to enforce the terms of this Agreement (including its right to use all TEN Marks and all variations, adaptations, translations, combinations and derivatives thereof as permitted in this Agreement), TEN shall not, and shall cause each other member of the TEN Group to not, directly or indirectly: (a) assert any claim of right in or ownership of the TFMC Marks, contest the validity or enforceability of the TFMC Marks or challenge TFMC’s right, title, interest in, or ownership of, the TFMC Marks, its registrations therefor or TFMC’s right to license the same; (b) interfere with, oppose or challenge any of TFMC’s applications for or registrations of the TFMC Marks (including domain name registrations) or interfere with, oppose or challenge the exploitation of the TFMC Marks by or on behalf of TFMC; (c) apply for, or assist or cause any other entity to apply for, the registration of any logo, symbol, trademark, service xxxx, company or corporate name, product name, domain name or commercial slogan that creates a likelihood of confusion with TFMC’s use of the TFMC Marks, as permitted hereunder; or (d) intentionally take any action that would have a material adverse effect on the value, reputation or goodwill of the TFMC Marks or tarnish the TFMC Marks or materially harm TFMC’s valuable goodwill in the TFMC Marks.

(b) TEN Marks. Without limiting TFMC’s right to enforce the terms of this Agreement, TFMC shall not, and shall cause each other member of the TFMC Group to not, directly or indirectly: (a) assert any claim of right in or ownership of the TEN Marks, contest the validity or enforceability of the TEN Marks or challenge TEN’s right, title, interest in, or ownership of, the TEN Marks, its registrations therefor or TEN’s right to license the same; (b) interfere with, oppose or challenge any of TEN’s applications for or registrations of the TEN Marks (including domain name registrations) or interfere with, oppose or challenge the exploitation of the TEN Marks by or on behalf of TEN; (c) apply for, or assist or cause any other entity to apply for, the registration of any logo, symbol, trademark, service xxxx, company or corporate name, product name, domain name or commercial slogan that creates a likelihood of confusion with TEN’s use of the TEN marks, as permitted hereunder; or (d) intentionally take any action that would have a material adverse effect on the value, reputation or goodwill of the TEN Marks or tarnish the TEN Marks or materially harm TEN’s valuable goodwill in the TEN Marks.

1.3 No Likelihood of Confusion. The Parties acknowledge and agree that there is no likelihood of confusion between the use of the TFMC Marks by any member of the TFMC Group and the use of the TEN Marks by any member of the TEN Group, in each case as permitted hereunder or under the Separation Agreement. In the event that any member of the TFMC Group seeks to register a TFMC Xxxx or any member of the TEN Group seeks to register a TEN Xxxx, as permitted hereunder, and the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office or applicable foreign or multinational intellectual property office (an “Applicable Trademark Office”) issues an office action with respect to any such application, or refuses to register or otherwise raises an issue or an objection with respect to the registration or ownership of such TFMC Xxxx or TEN Xxxx as a result of the ownership or use of Technip-Formative Marks by any member of the Group of the other Party, such other Party shall, and shall cause each other member of its Group to, upon request, reasonably cooperate in responding to the Applicable Trademark Office and provide any other reasonable assistance with respect thereto.

1.4 No License Granted. No license to or rights in any of the TFMC Marks have been conveyed or licensed to any member of the TEN Group under this Agreement or otherwise (except as expressly set forth in the Separation Agreement). No license to or rights in any of the TEN Marks have been conveyed or licensed to any member of the TFMC Group under this Agreement or otherwise.

4.3 Liability; Loading Arms Indemnity. TEN acknowledges that, except as expressly set forth in Section 4.2, nothing in this Agreement shall give TEN any right, title or interest in the Loading Arms Marks and that any use by TEN, its Affiliates or Tokyo Boeki of the Loading Arms Marks following the Effective Date is at TEN’s risk, without representation or warranty of any kind.

7.2 Modification or Amendments. Subject to the provisions of applicable Law, and except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, this Agreement may be amended, modified or supplemented only by written instrument signed by the authorized representative of the Party against whom it sought to enforce such waiver, amendment, supplement or modification is sought to be enforced; provided, at any time prior to the Effective Time, the terms and conditions of this Agreement, including terms relating to the Transactions, may be amended, modified or abandoned by and in the sole and absolute discretion of the TFMC Board without the approval of any Person, including TFMC or TEN.

7.3 Waivers of Default. Waiver by a Party of any default by the other Party of any provision of this Agreement shall not be deemed a waiver by the waiving Party of any subsequent or other default, nor shall it prejudice the rights of the other Party. No failure or delay by a Party in exercising any right, power or privilege under this Agreement shall operate as a waiver thereof nor shall a single or partial exercise thereof prejudice any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege.

7.4 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, and by the different Parties hereto in separate counterparts, each of which when executed shall be deemed to be an original but all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same agreement. The exchange of a fully executed Agreement (in counterparts or otherwise) by facsimile or by electronic delivery in .pdf format shall be sufficient to bind the Parties to the terms and conditions of this Agreement.

7.5 Governing Law. This Agreement (and any claims arising out of or related hereto or to the transactions contemplated hereby or to the inducement of any Party to enter herein, whether for breach of contract, tortious conduct or otherwise and whether predicated on common law, statute or otherwise) shall be governed by and construed and interpreted in accordance with the Laws of the State of New York, irrespective of the choice of laws principles of the State of New York, including all matters of validity, construction, effect, enforceability, performance and remedies.

7.7 Entire Agreement. This Agreement (including any annexes hereto), together with the Separation Agreement and the other Ancillary Agreements constitutes the entire agreement, and supersedes all other prior agreements, understandings, representations and warranties both written and oral, among the Parties, with respect to the subject matter hereof.

7.8 No Third-Party Beneficiaries. The provisions of this Agreement are solely for the benefit of the Parties and are not intended to confer upon any Person (including, without limitation, any shareholders of TFMC or shareholders of TEN) except the Parties hereto any rights or remedies hereunder. There are no third-party beneficiaries of this Agreement, and this Agreement shall not provide any third Person (including, without limitation, any shareholders of TFMC or shareholders of TEN) with any remedy, claim, reimbursement, claim of action or other right in excess of those existing without reference to this Agreement.

7.9 Severability. The provisions of this Agreement shall be deemed severable, and the invalidity or unenforceability of any provision shall not affect the validity or enforceability or the other provisions hereof. If any provision of this Agreement, or the application thereof to any Person or any circumstance, is invalid or unenforceable, (a) a suitable and equitable provision shall be substituted therefor in order to carry out, so far as may be valid and enforceable, the intent and purpose of such invalid or unenforceable provision and (b) the remainder of this Agreement and the application of such provision to other Persons or circumstances shall not be affected by such invalidity or unenforceability, nor shall such invalidity or unenforceability affect the validity or enforceability of such provision, or the application thereof, in any other jurisdiction.

7.10 Interpretation. The table of contents and headings herein are for convenience of reference only, do not constitute part of this Agreement and shall not be deemed to limit or otherwise affect any of the provisions hereof. Where a reference in this Agreement is made to a Section, Schedule, Annex or Exhibit, such reference shall be to a Section of, Schedule to, Annex to or Exhibit to this Agreement unless otherwise indicated. Whenever the words “include,” “includes” or “including” are used in this Agreement, they shall be deemed to be followed by the words “without limitation.” For purposes of this Agreement, whenever the context requires the singular number shall include the plural, and vice versa. All references in this Agreement to “$” are intended to refer to United States dollars and all references to “EUR” are to the lawful currency of the European Union. Any reference to a particular Law or Contract means such Law or Contract as amended, modified or supplemented (including, with respect to any such Law, all rules and regulations promulgated thereunder) and, unless otherwise provided, as in effect from time to time.

7.11 Defined Terms. Capitalized terms used and not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings specified or referred to in Annex I, or if not defined therein, in the Separation Agreement.

7.12 Assignment.

(a) TEN shall not assign or transfer any of the TEN Marks to any Competitor of TFMC without TFMC’s prior written consent, and TFMC shall not assign or transfer any of the TFMC Marks to any Competitor of TEN without TEN’s prior written consent. Subject to the foregoing, nothing herein shall restrict a Party from assigning or transferring any Marks it owns (whether by Contract, by operation of Law, by virtue of a merger or consolidation with any surviving entity, or otherwise); provided that the assigned or transferred Marks shall remain subject to, and the applicable assignee or transferee agrees in writing to be bound by the terms and conditions of, this Agreement.

(b) Subject to and without limiting subsection (a) above, neither Party may assign this Agreement to any Person and any attempt to do so shall be void. Notwithstanding the foregoing, either Party may (i) transfer all or a part of their respective rights and obligations under this Agreement to their respective Affiliates; (ii) transfer all or part of their respective rights and obligations under this Agreement to any third party in connection with an acquisition of such Party (whether by merger, consolidation, sale of assets, sale or exchange of stock, by operation of Law or otherwise and whether in a single or multiple transactions); and (iii) transfer all or part of its respective rights and obligations under this Agreement to any third party in connection with an acquisition of a discrete business unit or division of such Party (whether by merger, consolidation, sale of assets, sale or exchange of stock, or otherwise), provided that business unit or division is capable of being operated on a standalone basis, and provided that the coexistence terms hereunder shall not extend beyond the business unit or division being sold; and provided that, in each of the above cases, such transferee, assignee or successor agrees to be bound by the terms of this Agreement. This Agreement shall not be assigned or otherwise transferred in whole or in part by either Party to any Competitor of the other Party without the other Party’s prior written consent, which may not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned. Further, each Party may collaterally assign its rights under this Agreement to its lenders or other financing sources, provided that, upon foreclosure, (A) any assignee or transferee of all or part of this Agreement agrees to be bound by the terms of this Agreement, and (B) this Agreement shall not be assigned or otherwise transferred in whole or in part in connection with such foreclosure to any Competitor of the other Party without the other Party’s prior written consent, which may not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned.

(c) Subject to subparagraphs (a) and (b) above, this Agreement shall be binding upon and shall inure to the benefit of the Parties and their respective successors (whether by Contract, operation of Law or otherwise) and permitted assigns.

7.13 Specific Performance; Other Equitable Relief. Each Party hereby acknowledges and agrees that (i) irreparable damage would occur if any provision of this Agreement were not performed in accordance with the specific terms hereof or were otherwise breached, and (ii) remedies at Law for any breach or threatened breach of this Agreement, including monetary damages, are inadequate compensation for any loss that any other Party would suffer as a result. It is accordingly agreed that the Parties shall be entitled to an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this Agreement (without necessity of posting bond or other security (any requirements therefor being expressly waived)), this being in addition to any other remedy to which they are entitled at Law or in equity. Each of the Parties agrees that it will not oppose the granting of an injunction, specific performance or other equitable relief as provided herein on the basis that (i) the other Party has an adequate remedy at Law or (ii) an award of specific performance is not an appropriate remedy for any reason at Law or equity. Any party seeking an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of the Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this Agreement shall not be required to provide any bond or other security in connection with any such order or injunction.

7.14 Construction. This Agreement shall be construed as if jointly drafted by the Parties and no rule of construction or strict interpretation shall be applied against either Party.
