IT IS AGREED as follows

1 Interpretation

1.1 Terms and conditions defined in the Common Terms Agreement (as amended by the side letter dated 1 June 2018) shall have the same meaning when used in this Guarantee including the Recitals hereto unless otherwise defined herein.

1.2 In this Guarantee:

“Common Units” has the same meaning as given to such term in the Amended and Restated Limited Liability Company Agreement of Xxxxx Xxxxx LLC dated on or about 11 July 2018 entered into between the Guarantors, KSI and B&V.

“GHL” means Xxxxx Xxxxx LLC (a company incorporated in the Republic of the Xxxxxxxx Islands) whose registered office is at Trust Company Complex, Ajeltake Road, Ajeltake Island, Majuro, Xxxxxxxx Islands MH96960.

2 Guarantee

2.1 In consideration of Fortune agreeing to charter the Vessel pursuant to the Bareboat Charter, each Guarantor (subject to clause 2.6 below) hereby severally guarantees to Fortune the due and proper performance by Xxxxx Xxxxx of all of Golar Hilli's duties and obligations arising under or in connection with the Bareboat Charter, and each Guarantor hereby absolutely, irrevocably and unconditionally undertakes as primary obligor and not as mere surety to pay to Fortune, within five (5) Business Days of Fortune's demand at any time and from time to time, a several share of the Guaranteed Amount.

2.2 As a separate and independent stipulation, each Guarantor (subject to clause 2.6 below) agrees that if any purported obligation or liability of Xxxxx Xxxxx which would have been the subject of this Guarantee had it been valid and enforceable is not or ceases to be valid or enforceable against Xxxxx Xxxxx on any ground whatsoever (including, without limitation, any irregular exercise or absence of any corporate power or lack of authority of, or breach of duty by, any person purporting to act on behalf of Xxxxx Xxxxx or any legal or other limitation, whether under the Xxxxxxxxxx Xxx 0000 (Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx) or otherwise or Incapacity or any change in the constitution of Xxxxx Xxxxx) each Guarantor shall nevertheless be severally liable to Fortune in respect of that purported obligation or liability as if the same were fully valid and enforceable and each Guarantor was the principal debtor in respect thereof.

2.3 Each Guarantor (subject to clause 2.6 below) shall be liable for and shall within five (5) Business Days of Fortune’s demand indemnify and save harmless Fortune from and against any and all losses, damages, expenses, liabilities, claims, costs or proceedings which Fortune suffers or incurs by reason of any failure of any Guarantor to comply with clause 2.1 or 2.2, including costs, losses and/or legal and other expenses which are imposed on or incurred by Fortune in seeking to enforce and enforcing this Guarantee and in seeking to enforce and enforcing any judgment or order obtained in respect of this Guarantee.

2.4 Subject to the provisions of clauses 3, 8 and 9 the liability of each Guarantor under this Guarantee in respect of each obligation or liability shall be limited to the extent that Xxxxx Xxxxx would have been liable under or in connection with the Bareboat Charter for such obligation or liability.

2.5 Each Guarantor waives any right it may have of first requiring Xxxxx Xxxxx (or any trustee or agent on its behalf) to proceed against or enforce any other rights or security or claim payment from any person, prior to a claim against any Guarantor under this clause 2. This waiver applies irrespective of any law or provision of the Finance Documents to the contrary.

2.6 Each Guarantor’s liability under this Guarantee is several (and not joint) and such liability of each Guarantor shall be on a pro rata basis equal and up to, respectively, GLNG’s proportionate ownership (aggregated with that of KSI and B&V, if any), and Golar MLP’s proportionate ownership of Common Units in GHL.

2.7 For the avoidance of doubt, any notice and/or demand to be served on any Guarantor in respect of any obligations for which it is liable shall be addressed to, and served on, both Guarantors, notwithstanding their several liability. 

3 Indemnity

Each Guarantor agrees to indemnify Fortune, against its proportionate several share, within five (5) Business Days of Fortune making a demand to Xxxxx Xxxxx or each Guarantor, against any loss or liability suffered or incurred by Fortune if any of the duties or obligations of Xxxxx Xxxxx under or pursuant to the Bareboat Charter is or becomes unenforceable, invalid or illegal for any reason whatsoever as if each Guarantor were primarily liable under the Bareboat Charter as the case may be and as if such duties and/or obligations were not unenforceable, invalid or illegal.

(c) any settlement or arrangement made between Fortune and Xxxxx Xxxxx in relation to the Bareboat Charter;

(d) any composition, discharge, release, concession, waiver or other variation of liability entered into with, or granted to, Xxxxx Xxxxx;

(e) the Bareboat Charter or any provision thereof being or becoming illegal, invalid, void, voidable or unenforceable;

(f) termination of the Bareboat Charter or Golar Hilli's employment under the Bareboat Charter;

(g) any disability, Incapacity, lack of power, authority or legal personality of, dissolution or change in the members of, status of, legal limitation, change in ownership or change in status of Xxxxx Xxxxx;

(k) any funder exercising any rights it may have to assume any rights and/or obligations of Fortune under Bareboat Charter pursuant to any collateral warranty or any third party rights vested in it pursuant to the terms of the Bareboat Charter or any document or security;

(l) an amalgamation, merger, consolidation of either Guarantor and Xxxxx Xxxxx; or

(m) any other act, omission or default which in the absence of this provision would or might have operated to discharge, reduce, exonerate or otherwise affect the liability of either Guarantor under the terms of this Guarantee,

in each case whether such matters are done or omitted to be done with or without notice to, or the consent of, either Guarantor and each Guarantor hereby waives any requirement for notice of, or consent to, any such matters.
