Section 3.01   Purchase and Sale of Certified Emission Reductions

The Seller agrees to sell and deliver to the Buyer and the Buyer agrees to purchase and accept from the Seller the Delivery Amount of Contract CERs. All Contract CERs to be Delivered under this Agreement shall be net of the Adaption Share of Proceeds.

Section 3.02   Eligibility and Equivalent Rate

Each individual CER shall be eligible under the EU-ETS and for the Buyer’s compliance purposes under the EU-ETS shall be required to be equivalent to one EUA. If an exchange rate for CERs vis-à-vis EUAs is introduced under the International Rules, indicating the amount of CERs necessary to qualify as the equivalent of one EUA for Buyer’s compliance purposes under the EU-ETS (the “EUA Equivalent Rate”), the purchase price for CERs will be determined by dividing the Unit Price by such EUA Equivalent Rate.

Section 3.03   Purchase and Sale of Non-Eligible ERs 

(a) If the CERs generated by the Project are not eligible under the EU-ETS for the Buyer’s compliance purposes, the Seller grants the Buyer the right, but not the obligation, to purchase any Non-Eligible ERs.

(c) The Parties agree that all terms and conditions, procedures and any remedies regarding any purchase of Non-Eligible ERs pursuant to this Section 3.03 will be analogous to the terms and conditions, procedures and remedies applicable to the purchase of CERs as set out under this Agreement (except for the Unit Price as provided for in Schedule 3). For purpose of this Section 3.03 all references to “CER” in this Agreement shall be deemed references to Non-Eligible ERs and all terms and conditions in this Agreement applicable to CERs (except for the Unit Price) shall be read and construed accordingly.

13

(d) In the event that the Buyer does not exercise its right to agree to purchase all the Non-Eligible ERs then the Seller may sell the Non-Eligible ERs to a third party buyer.

Section 3.04 Delivery Amount

During the Delivery Period the Seller shall have the Project generate the Delivery Amount set out in Schedule 3 and have Contract CERs corresponding to these GHG Reductions issued and Delivered to the Buyer at the given Delivery Date according to Schedule 3.

(b) As soon as the Buyer becomes aware of an actual Unauthorised Transfer it may, at its absolute discretion and by notice to the Seller calculate and require the Seller to pay to it Buyer’s Replacement Costs within 20 Business Days of that notification.

(c) Buyer’s Replacement Costs shall be calculated as the sum of:

(i) an amount equal to the product of:

(a) the Market Spot Price less the Unit Price; and

(b) the Unauthorised Transfer Amount; plus

(ii) the amount of such reasonable costs and expenses which the Buyer incurs in respect of the Unauthorised Transfer Amount (including broker fees, recovery costs, commissions and legal fees), plus

(iii) an administrative fee of EUR 1.50 for each undelivered Contract CER.

(b) Upon receipt of the notification, the Buyer shall have 60 Business Days to approve the additional CPA. If the Buyer approves the additional CPA, the Parties shall sign a written confirmation, which shall be attached as Schedule 5 to this Agreement (the “Confirmation Schedule”). The Confirmation Schedule shall include condition precedents regarding the positive outcome of the Environmental Impact Assessment and a schedule regarding annual and total expected Delivery Amount.

(c) Upon signature of the Confirmation Schedule and fulfilment of the conditions precedents, the CPA will be included in the Project and all references to the Project in this Agreement will be deemed to be a reference to the Project including the additional CPA.

14

(d) All communication under this Section 3.06 shall be in writing and it will be in the Buyers sole discretion to approve or not approve an additional CPA as part of the Project. No additional CPA shall be approved unless the Buyer has expressed its approval in the Confirmation Schedule.

(e) The cost in relation to additional CPAs is set out in Section 4.04 and Schedule 2.

(f) If the Buyer rejects an additional CPA, the Seller shall be at liberty to Commission such CPA and sell and deliver its CERs to another purchaser without having to make any accounting to or grant any participation to the Buyer in any revenues or CERs from such CPA except to the extent that the Buyer has made a direct payment for the CPA-DD in respect of such CPA and as described in sub-paragraph (f) below. In the case where the Buyer made a payment in respect of such CPA, the Seller will reimburse the Buyer 100% of such costs out of the proceeds it receives from the sale of the CERs of such CPA.

(g) In addition, the Seller will use its reasonable endeavours to comply with any requirements to be imposed by the DOEs retained by the Parties hereto to provide validation and verification services in order to enable such DOEs to fulfil their contractual obligations in respect of those CPAs that the Seller has accepted.
