1.1
Amendments to the contract price of the Gasifier Agreement: The
contract price that ECOIDEA, pursuant to the credit assignments set forth in the
Agreement, will pay to XXXXXXXXX on behalf of L&R as payment of the contract
price specified in the Gasifier Agreement shall be calculated as follows: U.S.
$3 million, equal to the previously stipulated contract price, minus U.S.
$900,000, equal to the expenses incurred by ECOIDEA for making changes and
developments to the GASIFIERS. This sum will be deducted from the sum owed to
XXXXXXXXX, which will therefore total U.S. $2.1 million.
1.2
Terms of payment of contract price pursuant to Gasifier
Agreement: The
contract price as stipulated in the Gasifier Agreement, as detailed in Section
1.1 above, will be paid as follows.
(a) At
the signing of this contract, ECOIDEA, on behalf of L&R and as partial
payment of the credit assignments detailed in the Agreement, will pay XXXXXXXXX

Contract
prices agreed upon between the PARTIES
2.1
Amendments to the contract prices agreed upon in the covenants between the
PARTIES: With
the exception of what is detailed in Section 1.1 with regard to the contract
price of the Gasifier Agreement, in consideration of the costs incurred by
ECOIDEA for the changes and developments made to the GASIFIERS with the help of
a highly competent and professional company specialized in the heat regeneration
field, the PARTIES agree that ECOIDEA has the right to be reimbursed for such
costs, in the amount of U.S. $900,000.00.
The
contract price agreed upon between ECOIDEA and ES, recalled in the recitals of
this contract, must therefore be revisited by deducting the sum of U.S.
$900,000.00. The same provision is applicable to the contract prices set forth
in the covenants between ES and EWS, and EWS and L&R, recalled in the
recitals of this contract.
Furthermore,
in consideration for the sum that ECOIDEA will anticipate on behalf of L&R
for the costs indicated in Section 1.3, the contract prices set forth in the
covenants between ECOIDEA and ES, between ES and EWS, and between EWS and
L&R, need to be reduced as follows: by the sum of U.S. $650,000.00 regarding
the covenant between ES and EWS, and by the sum of U.S. $250,000.00 regarding
the covenant between EWS and L&R.

2.2
Terms of payment of contract prices as set forth in the covenants between the
PARTIES: The
contract price specified in the covenants between the PARTIES, referred to in
the recitals of this contract, will be paid in accordance with the terms and
conditions stipulated between the PARTIES as set forth in each covenant between
the interested parties.
Article

NATHANIEL's
OBLIGATIONS
3.1
Completion of the start-up of the two GASIFIER units:
XXXXXXXXX commits to completing the start-up of the two GASIFIERS, which need to
conform to the requisites, the gasification capacity and all other
specifications detailed in this contract stipulated between the PARTIES and
XXXXXXXXX, in accordance with the terms set forth in this contract and in this
Article 3. Xxxx Xx.0 must be completed and tested on or before January 31, 2005;
Unit No. 1 must be completed and tested on or before February 28, 2005. These
completion dates, however, can be amended if: i) any one of the PARTIES does not
comply or has not complied with its obligations and/or responsibilities, and
these were a requirement for NATHAN1EL to be able to fulfill its contract
responsibilities in terms of completing the start-up of the two Thermal
Combustors™; or ii) if the conditions set forth in Section 7.2 are not
met.
3.2
Gasifier performance and acceptance testing: The
payment to XXXXXXXXX of the sums detailed in sections 1.2, paragraph (b); 1.2,
paragraph (c); and 1.3 shall take place only following a successful gasification
of Italian WDF, which is defined in the following paragraphs of this section.
Gasification shall be measured on twelve (12) hour intervals (every 24-hour
day), for four (4) consecutive days to demonstrate successful gasification
pursuant to the terms set forth and defined below. Each day XXXXXXXXX will
communicate the beginning of the 12-hour gasification period to the
PARTIES.
Gasification
is defined as follows:
a) |
The
gasification phase of the Thermal Combustor takes place in the
gasification chamber, where high temperatures ignite the fuel in an
atmosphere which contains little oxygen, thus producing an exhaust gas
composed of carbon monoxide (CO), carbon dioxide (CO2),
hydrogen (H), methane, traces of higher hydrocarbons, water, nitrogen, and
small quantities of different pollutants. |
b) |
The
combustion of a solid hydrocarbon-based fuel in the Thermal Combustor is
demonstrated by the rise in temperature from the gasification zone
(gasification chamber, oxidation chamber, and transition chamber) to the
fire tube when air is added to the latter. |
4
3.3
Energy Output guarantees
Notwithstanding
the obligations and warranties set forth for each PARTY in the covenants
referred to in the recitals of this agreement with regard to the PLANT’s energy
output capacity, XXXXXXXXX guarantees that the Thermal Combustors will be
capable of the following energy output:
-
sufficient heat to produce 19,240 kg/hr at 40 bar and 380°C steam measured at
the orifice plate of the boiler exit of each line based on fuel specifications,
that must be equal or greater than the specifications contained in Attachment B
to this contract.
3.4
Tolerance
The
PARTIES and XXXXXXXXX agree to deem a steam production up to 5% lower with
regard to that indicated in Section 3.3 as acceptable and within the tolerance
limits for these plants. Therefore, the PARTIES agree, each in its own area of
responsibility, that if the total value of steam produced is less than 5% lower
with respect to the values guaranteed by XXXXXXXXX, the contractual obligations
set forth in Section 3.3 shall be considered fulfilled, and there will be no
reduction in the contract price as detailed in Article 1 of this
contract.
3.5
Price reduction
In the
event the thermal power and the steam produced are 5-10% lower than the value
specified in paragraph 3.3 when measured during the acceptance test, or 10-15%
lower than the value indicated in paragraph 3.3 when measured monthly during
PLANT operation, the PARTIES agree that the contractual obligations set forth in
Section 3.3 shall be considered fulfilled. However, the amount owed to XXXXXXXXX
in accordance to the terms set forth in Section 1.1 of this contract will
decrease by U.S. $11,000.00 (eleven thousand dollars) for each tenth of a
percentage point of lesser steam output, up to a maximum of U.S. $649,000.00
(six hundred and forty nine thousand dollars), deductible from NATHANIEL's
contract price, where the balance is to be deducted from the PARTIES' contract
prices in accordance with their responsibility, as set forth in the preceding
paragraphs. If the percentage includes between 0 and 4 hundredths of a
percentage point, the amount will be rounded down to the next tenth of a
percentage point; if the percentage includes between 5 and 9 hundredths of a
percentage point, the amount will be rounded up to the next tenth of a
percentage point (for example, a production which is 5.74 percentage points
lower than the estimated one will be rounded down to 5.7% or 57 tenths of a
percentage point, while production which is 5.75% lower than the estimated one
will be rounded up to 5.8% or 58 tenths of a percentage point).
If the
lower steam output is measured during testing, and falls within the ranges
indicated in this Section 3.5, the amount deducted from the sum owed to
NATHAN1EL, calculated based on the indications of the above section, will be
deducted from the partial payments of the contract price indicated in Section
1.2, paragraphs (b) and (c).
If the
lower steam output is measured during plant operation, the warranties and
responsibilities of the PARTY who is responsible for the lower output xxxx be
applied, and that PARTY shall reimburse ECOIDEA in accordance with the terms set
forth in the preceding sections.
5
3.6
Insufficient Energy, Output
If the
steam output is lower than the guaranteed capacity by more than 10%, in
accordance with the terms set forth in Section 3.3, the PARTIES can ask
XXXXXXXXX to deliver the guaranteed steam output, in accordance with the terms
of Section 3.3, within the tolerance range indicated in sections 3.4 and 3.5,
within 60 days of the date of mailing of a notice that shall be delivered to
NATHAN1EL in written form, by certified mail, with a return
receipt.
If steam
output is more than 15% lower than the guaranteed Output, in accordance with the
terms set forth in Section 3.3, and in the event the reduced output continues
for more than 60 days after receipt of the aforementioned warning to XXXXXXXXX
sent by certified mail with a return receipt, the PARTIES will have the right to
resolve the contract based on Article 1456 of the Italian Civil Code. In this
case, NATHAN1EL shall remove the GASIFIERS and all proprietary related devices
and assets from the PLANT (within a reasonable time-frame, assuming all
necessary costs, and assuming full responsibility), and shall remove them from
ECOIDEA's property. XXXXXXXXX shall also return to ECOIDEA all amounts received
based on terms set forth in Article 1, with the exception of items 1.3 and 1.4,
within seven days from the deadline specified in the preceding section,
notwithstanding the damage compensation owed to each PARTY as set forth in the
covenants recalled in the recitals of this document.
3.7
User Manuals: Once
the PLANT is completed and once XXXXXXXXX has been paid all it is owed based on
the terms set forth in sections 1.2, 1.3 and 1.4, NATHAN1EL will supply ECOIDEA
with the User and Maintenance Manuals, which must contain a list of recommended
replacement parts.
3.8

Article7
Fuel
7.1
Fuel specifications: The
PARTIES acknowledge that the Gasifiers need a constant and reliable supply of
densified fuel with a minimum PCI value and which overall matches the
specifications detailed in Attachment B. In the event fluff is used, i.e. refuse
derived fuel with a density index below 350 kg/m3 which is not compact enough to
maintain a compressed pellet form, ECOIDEA shall accept reduced functionality
and output, and XXXXXXXXX shall not be liable for any fine as specified in
sections 3.5 and 3.6 of this document. If using fluff, the requirements for
energy output of the Thermal Combustors set forth in sections 3.3, 3.4., 3.5 and
3.6 shall not be valid, and XXXXXXXXX shall have a right to any outstanding
amount of the contract price, as specified in Article 1, that has not been paid
to date as specified in Article 1, as long as performance is completed as
described in Section 3.2.
7.2
WDF specifications:
NATHANIEL's obligation to fulfill the conditions set forth in sections 3.2 and
3.3 is explicitly dependant on a party other than XXXXXXXXX supplying the PLANT
with WDF that meets the fuel specifications indicated in "WDF (Waste-Derived
Fuel) Specifications for Gas Combustors" attached to this contract under
Attachment B.
7.3
WDF Sampling and testing: In
order to verify that the WDF supplied to the PLANT site for performance and
acceptance testing of the Gasifiers meets the WDF Specifications, ECO1DEA shall
allow XXXXXXXXX to obtain samples and test both densified and non-densified WDF
in highly competent laboratories chosen jointly by the PARTIES and XXXXXXXXX.
XXXXXXXXX shall be responsible for, and in charge of, the transport (if allowed
by the Italian competent authorities), the analysis, mid the testing, which
shall be carried out before the final test date.
7.4
NATHANIEL's right to renounce sampling and testing:
XXXXXXXXX personnel shall inspect the WDF delivered to the PLANT and the
densified WDF to be used during performance and acceptance testing of the
Gasifiers. In the event a visual inspection finds the WDF compliant to the WDF
Specifications, XXXXXXXXX can advise ECOIDEA that it renounces the right to
verify that the sampling and testing requirements specified in Section 7.3 have
been met. This waiver, however, does not imply a waiver of the condition that
the WDF must meet the WDF Specifications. If, following NATHANIEL's
communication to ECO1DEA that it chooses not to verify that the sampling and
testing requirements specified in Section 7.3 have been met, the quality of
subsequent deliveries of WDF appears not to meet the WDF
Specifications,
9
XXXXXXXXX
can advise ECOIDEA that it intends to restore the verification of the sampling
and testing requirements set forth in Section 7.3.
