In respect of the first Contract Year, the Base Capacity shall be calculated from the Acceptance Date, notwithstanding that the first Contract Year may commence after the Acceptance Date.” ““Monthly Component” means twelve (12); provided, however, that (i) for the first and last Contract Year, Monthly Component shall mean the number of months in the respective Contract Year with the first and last months in such Contract Year being prorated based upon the number of days in such month (if the first and last months are not full calendar months), and (ii) [*****]” ““Purging and Cool Down Fee” shall have the meaning set out in Clause 5.1(f).” ““Tolling Fee” means the sum of the Base Tolling Fee and the Excess Tolling Fee.” (ii) Adding the following new definitions in alphabetical order: ““Base Tolling Fee” has the meaning given to it in Clause 5.1(a).” ““Excess Base Capacity” means the LNG liquefaction capacity over and above the Base Capacity notified by the Customer in respect of a Contract Year if [*****].” ““Excess Tolling Fee” has the meaning given to it in Clause 5.1(e).” ““MMBTU Excess Base Capacity” shall be the MMBTU equivalent of the Excess Base Capacity, and shall be calculated by multiplying the Excess Base Capacity [*****].”

(ii) Brent Crude Price > USD60 but [*****]. (iii) Brent Crude Price < USD60: [*****]. The “Brent Crude Price” shall be the un-weighted arithmetic average (expressed in USD per barrel) of the Dated Brent Index values for the three (3) months immediately preceding (but excluding) the calendar month in respect of which the Tolling Fee is calculated and for which payment is due pursuant to Clause 5.1. “Dated Brent Index” means, for a calendar month, the un-weighted arithmetic average (expressed in USD per barrel) of all Dated Brent values for each quoted day of such calendar month; and “Dated Brent” means the daily arithmetic average of the high and low assessment prices (expressed in USD per barrel) published on a given quoted day in Platts Oilgram Price Report under the heading “Crude price assessments ($/bbl)” under the “International” Clause for the “Brent (DTD)” quotation (Platts code: PCAAS00).

Once Golar are able to achieve the Excess Base Capacity notified by the Customer, Golar shall notify the Customer in writing, following which an additional monthly fee (the “Excess Tolling Fee”) payable in arrears in an amount equal to (1) the MMBTU Excess Base Capacity for the applicable Contract Year divided by (2) the Monthly Component and multiplied by (3) the price per MMBTU (based on Gross Heating Value), which shall be calculated as follows (commencing on the first day of the calendar month following such notification by Golar): (i) Brent Crude Price > [*****].

“17 CREDIT SUPPORT 17.1 Golar Credit Support (a) Golar shall provide a bank guarantee issued by an internationally recognised bank and acceptable to the Customer (the “Golar Credit Support”), guaranteeing the obligations of Golar to pay Daily LDs and the Termination Balloon Payment under Clause 9.4(e) above, [*****], and termination fees under Clause 18.2(a), capped at a maximum of [*****] less [*****]; save that when the FLNG Vessel has produced over 3.6 million tonnes of LNG (including, for the avoidance of doubt, LNG produced during the Commissioning Period) [*****]. 17.2 Customer Credit Support (a) Perenco shall provide bank guarantees issued by three (3) or more internationally recognised banks acceptable to Golar (each a “Bank Guarantee” and together the “Perenco Credit Support”), guaranteeing (on a pro-rated basis) the obligations of Perenco to pay termination fees under Clause 18.2(b) below, capped at a maximum aggregate amount of [*****] (the “Maximum Aggregate Amount”). Both the Maximum Aggregate Amount and the maximum amount of each Bank Guarantee shall reduce (on a pro-rated basis) as from the second (2nd) anniversary of the Acceptance Date by [*****] (as at the time of termination) payable for the remaining duration of this Agreement. Golar undertakes that it shall not make a demand for payment under some but not all of the Bank Guarantees, and that the amount of any demand pursuant to an individual Bank Guarantee will be calculated by Golar on a pro rata basis, meaning such amount shall bear the same proportion to the aggregate total amount demanded under the Perenco Credit Support in respect of the termination event or repudiatory breach in question, as the maximum amount of the relevant Bank Guarantee bears to the Maximum Aggregate Amount (each as amended from time to time). (b) SNH shall provide a guarantee guaranteeing SNH’s obligations to pay termination fees under Clause 18.2(b) below, [*****], and which reduces as from the second (2nd) anniversary of the Acceptance Date by [*****] (as at the time of termination) payable for the remaining duration of this Agreement, or alternative security reasonably acceptable to Golar (the “SNH Credit Support”).” 2.12 Annex 2 (Project Specifications) of the LTA shall be deleted in its entirety and replaced with the following: “ANNEX 2 - PROJECT SPECIFICATIONS Component, Mol % Minimum Maximum C02 [*****] [*****] Nitrogen [*****] [*****]
