This Basic Engineering services are already included in the Sodium Supply Agreement for the the 2 MW pilot plant of VAST SOLAR signed between the Parties.

In case further Basic Engineering services are needed for following Projects, MSSA will provide its best estimate of the work load to get VAST SOLAR prior approval.

If, at any time during its CSP technology development process, VAST SOLAR requires technical sodium support from MSSA, MSSA undertakes to provide such technical sodium support based on fees as described in Article IV.6 and IV. 7. MSSA will provide VAST SOLAR with a work load estimate for prior written approval.

IV.2 Project Detailed Engineering services

MSSA estimate the work load to be 300 man-hours.

IV.3 Project Construction and Purchasing services

MSSA estimate the work load to be 150 man-hours.

IV.4 Project Commissioning services

MSSA estimate the work load to be 100 man-hours.

IV.5 Project Start-up services

Project Start-up services are proposed only if MSSA enters into a sodium supply agreement with the Final User. In such a case, Project Start-up services shall be included in such sodium supply agreement.

If MSSA has not entered into a sodium supply agreement with the Final user, MSSA may offer Project Start-up services to VAST SOLAR, at VAST SOLAR’s request, such Project Start-up services. MSSA estimate the work load to be 50 man-hours.

IV.6 MSSA Technical Support fees

MSSA will charge VAST SOLAR Euro 100.00 / hour. If the actual work load is less than estimated work-load by more than 10%, then MSSA will charge VAST SOLAR only the actual work load hours. If the actual work load exceeds estimate due to the sole responsibility of MSSA, its negligence, default or its failure to comply with this Agreement or any agreement with Final User, MSSA will charge VAST SOLAR only the estimated work load as stated in sections IV.l to IV.5. If the actual work load exceeds the estimated work load, MSSA will advise VAST SOLAR as soon as it could be anticipated in order to mitigate the extra work load amount to be charged to VAST SOLAR.

8

Travel expenses will be charged at cost. Intercontinental flights in Business class, flights less than 4 hours in Economy class. Any extra charge due to changed schedule not due to MSSA will be charged as well to VAST SOLAR.

MSSA will issue a monthly invoice to VAST SOLAR stating in details work load for each project and each stage of the project. Copies of travel expenses incurred by MSSA will be enclosed.

Invoices are payable at 30 days net date of invoice. Interest on past due payments will accrue automatically at the rate of 1% per month, with part of a month being counted as a full month.

IV.7 Price revision

The fees potentially payable to MSSA in accordance with the preceding article shall be valid for the Initial Period of this Agreement. At the end of the Initial Period or any Extension Period, these fees will be revised by mutual agreement between the Parties.

If the Parties cannot find a mutual agreement, the fees will be automatically revised according to the following formula:
