Schedule

4.1 Schedule. Contractor and Owner will perform their respective responsibilities related to the Work in accordance with the Approved Project Schedule, as it may be adjusted in accordance with Article 11, and Owner shall cause each Owner Critical Schedule Milestone and Contractor shall cause each Contractor Critical Schedule Milestone, as applicable, to be achieved on or prior to the applicable Critical Schedule Milestone date, as those dates may be adjusted in accordance with Article 11.

4.2 Alterations to Schedule. Contractor shall not, without the prior written consent of Owner pursuant to Article 11, make any alteration to the Contractor Critical Schedule Milestones. However, Contractor shall have the flexibility to re-sequence its construction and other activities as it sees fit provided that it does not adversely impact the Guaranteed Substantial Completion Dates, the Owner Critical Schedule Milestones or the Target Price.

4.3 Revision of Schedule. Contractor shall notify Owner as soon as possible of any circumstances of which it becomes aware that might result in the Contractor Critical Schedule Milestones on the Approved Project Schedule not being met. If, as a result of Contractor’s notice or otherwise, Owner determines that Contractor Critical Schedule Milestones will not be achieved per the Approved Project Schedule, then Owner may, in its sole discretion, and without prejudice to any other rights of Owner hereunder: (i) change the Approved Project Schedule to provide for later completion of such Contractor Critical Schedule Milestones; or (ii) order Contractor to provide a schedule recovery plan to show how the impact on the Guaranteed Substantial Completion Dates can be mitigated. In the latter case, Contractor shall proceed with diligence to implement such recovery plan. For the avoidance of doubt, any entitlement to changes to the Substantial Completion Date and the Target Price shall be exclusively as set out in Article 11.

Without prejudice to the foregoing, if the progress of the Work is not proceeding in accordance with the Contract Documents or the Approved Project Schedule, Owner will be entitled to make recommendations to Contractor for the purpose of remedying such deficiencies, which recommendations shall be incorporated within Contractor’s recovery plan. Contractor shall use commercially reasonable efforts to maintain and, if necessary, restore compliance with the Approved Project Schedule and to meet the Contractor Critical Schedule Milestones, subject to this Section 4.3.

ARTICLE 5

Inspection and Approval

5.1 Owner’s Right to Attend Contractor Inspections. Contractor will notify Owner of any testing to or inspections of the Work or any portion thereof which are specifically identified in Appendix Q, including the Commissioning Tests and the Completion Tests (a) three (3) days in advance of such testing or inspection, for any testing or inspection outside the Facility Site, and (b) forty-eight (48) hours in advance of such testing or inspection for any testing or inspection at the Facility Site. Owner will have the option of being present at the inspections and testing on or off the Facility Site specifically identified in Appendix Q. Owner’s presence or non-presence at any testing or inspection shall not be deemed a waiver of any of Contractor’s obligations under this Contract or be construed as an approval or acceptance of the Work or any portion thereof.

5.2 Inspection and Re-Performance. Owner will have the right to access and inspect the Work wherever located and at any stage of completion. Owner may reject any Work that does not comply with the Contract Documents. If Owner’s inspection or any other information reveals such non-compliance or any other defects in any portion of Work, then Contractor will promptly correct such defective Work. If Contractor fails to initiate correction of the defective Work within fourteen (14) days of its discovery, Owner may, upon seven (7) days’

14

written notice, correct such defective Work. Owner’s correction of such defective Work will not relieve Contractor of its obligations under this Contract. The incremental costs and expenses related to such actions of Owner will be deducted from any sums due to Contractor under this Contract and shall be deducted from the Target Price.

Without prejudice to the foregoing, if the quality of the Work is not in accordance with the Contract Documents, Owner will be entitled to make recommendations to Contractor for the purpose of remedying such deficiencies.

5.2.1 Cover. Contractor shall not cover any portion of the Work required to be inspected by Owner without providing Owner with notice of covering at least twenty-four (24) hours before such portion of the Work is to be covered. If any portion of the Work should be covered without Contractor first providing such notice, it must, if required in writing by the Owner, at Contractor’s expense and not as a Direct Cost, be uncovered for observation and shall be recovered. If Owner does not perform its inspection within two (2) Business Days after Contractor provided the notice of inspection, Owner shall waive its right of inspection and Contractor may proceed to cover the Work.

5.3 Owner Approval. Owner shall have the right to review and approve those Design Development Documents and Construction Documents identified in Appendix Q, together with such other documents as Owner may reasonably specify from time to time. Before any Work as required or inferred from any Design Development Document or Construction Documents is commenced, Contractor will submit such Design Development Document or Construction Document to Owner for review. Owner shall review and respond within five (5) Business Days of receipt of such Design Development Document or Construction Document. Contractor may proceed with the Work prior to the completion of review by Owner if Contractor is certain that it is necessary to do so to meet the Schedule. If Owner does not respond within the five (5) Business Days, Contractor shall proceed as though the Owner has no comments; provided, however, that review or failure to review any Design Development Document or Construction Document by Owner shall not constitute an admission or agreement by Owner that the Work to be provided or performed in accordance with such Design Development Document or Construction Document is approved or is in conformance with the representations, covenants and warranties of Contractor under this Contract. Whether or not specified in this Contract, review, approval or acceptance by Owner or its designee, of all or any part of the Work, including drawings shall not relieve Contractor from any obligation under the Contract. Such review shall not be deemed a waiver by Owner of any claim arising from a Contractor Event of Default or nonperformance of the Work or any other obligation of Contractor hereunder. It is the sole responsibility of Contractor to properly complete the Work and to provide proper drawings.

(viii) to the extent that any discounts, benefits or savings arose directly or indirectly by virtue of a Subcontract (including with any affiliate of Contractor) and did not inure to the benefit of the Owner, then such savings shall be quantified and the amount in question treated as constituting a disallowable cost;

(ix) costs incurred by Contractor to the extent that they could have been avoided by virtue of prudent foreign exchange and currency management, including without limitation currency hedges;

(xviii) costs incurred to indemnify any Owner Indemnitees with respect to all of those matters subject to indemnity, including by not limited to indemnities for personal injury and third party property damage, all as described in Section 13.

6.3 Total Payments. The payment structure of this Contract is designed to encourage Contractor to perform the Work at or below the Target Price. At the same time, the payment structure is designed so that Contractor bears a proportion of any costs if the Project is not completed at or below the Target Price. In that regard:

6.3.1 If the Actual Cost is greater than Target Price, the amount of the excess (the “Excess”) shall be borne in accordance with the following (the aggregate of Contractor’s share of such Excess is defined herein as the “Contractor’s Excess Cost Liability”):

Amount of Excess	Contractor Share	Owner Share
Up to and including $[* * *]*	[ * * * ]*%	[ * * * ]*%
Greater than $[ * * * ]*, and up to and including $[ * * * ]*	[ * * * ]*%	[ * * * ]*%
All amounts in excess of $[ * * * ]*	[ * * * ]*%	[ * * * ]*%

6.3.2 If the Actual Cost is less than Target Price, the amount by which the Target Price exceeds the Actual Cost (the “Savings”) shall be divided between Contractor and Owner in accordance with the following:

Amount of Savings	Contractor Share	Owner Share
Up to and including $[* * *]*	[ * * * ]*%	[ * * * ]*%
Greater than $[ * * * ]	[ * * * ]*%	[ * * * ]*%

6.4 Monthly Direct Cost Payments.

6.4.1 Payment Schedule. The Payment Schedule included in Appendix E sets forth Contractor’s best estimate of the schedule on which Contractor will incur Direct Costs. As needed, Contractor will propose to Owner updates to the Payment Schedule in accordance with the procedures stated in Appendix E. Upon approval by Owner, the Payment Schedule shall be updated consistent with Owner’s approval to reflect Contractor’s then-current best estimate of the schedule on which Contractor will incur Direct Costs for the remainder of the Work.

6.4.2 Application for Monthly Payment. Contractor will submit to Owner an application for monthly payment of projected Direct Costs for the upcoming month in the form of an invoice (“Application for Monthly Payment”) and otherwise in accordance with the applicable provisions of this Section 6.4 and Appendix E.

6.4.3 Emergency Payments. In the event that Contractor’s actual payment requirement in any given month exceeds the funds paid to Contractor for the relevant period, then Contractor may notify Owner of the amount of the deficit between the projected and actual payment requirements, and Owner shall make commercially reasonable efforts to fund such excess requirement through the Payment Escrow Account.

6.4.4 Payment for Direct Costs. Within fifteen (15) days after receipt of the Application for Monthly Payment, and to the extent approved by Owner, Owner shall pay or cause to be paid the amounts requested in the Application for Monthly Payment, less an amount equal to the existing balance at the time of deposit, into an escrow account (the “Payment Escrow Account”). As soon as practicable after the Commencement Date Owner shall make an initial deposit into the Payment Escrow Account in the amount estimated by Contractor to be incurred or committed during the first month, not to exceed $[ * * * ].* To the extent the amounts reflected in the Application for Monthly Payment become actually due and payable under the Contract, then Contractor may draw upon the Payment Escrow Account for such amounts. Owner shall have full and total control over the Payment Escrow Account except for the aforementioned right of Contractor to draw upon the Payment Escrow Account in connection with its performance of the Work. Owner shall receive all interest payments accruing on the Payment Escrow Account. Owner shall establish the Payment Escrow Account at U.S. National Bank and the Parties shall negotiate in good faith to enter into a joint escrow agreement with U.S. National Bank consistent with the terms of this Contract substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit P. In no event shall Contractor accelerate orders or payment terms with the intent and objective to unjustifiably cause the amount to be deposited in the Payment Escrow at any given point in time to be materially greater than those associated with the approved Project Schedule without corresponding benefits to the Project Schedule.

6.4.5 Audit. Solely at Owner’s cost, Owner or a third party designated by Owner may from time to time conduct audits of Contractor’s books and records supporting payment of Direct Costs (including Subcontracts and payments relating thereto). Contractor shall provide reasonable access to Contractor’s relevant personnel where appropriate for purposes of such audit. Nothing in this Section shall be deemed to create a right to modify the agreed-upon bases (including markups and multipliers, where applicable) for charging Direct Costs as set out in Appendix E.

6.4.6 Required Submittals. Each Application for Monthly Payment shall include the following in order to qualify for processing by Owner:

6.4.6.1 Forecast Monthly Payments. A complete breakdown of the sums expected to be paid (or incurred in the case of Contractor’s own costs) by Contractor in the succeeding month.

6.4.6.2 Lien Waivers. (a) A lien waiver and release applicable to Work with respect to which Contractor has already received payment, (b) a conditional lien waiver and release that is applicable to Work completed prior to the date of such Application for Monthly Payment with respect to which Contractor seeks payment in such Application for Monthly Payment, and (c) any other information, documentation or certification that Owner reasonably requests in connection with any liens or such waivers and releases. The foregoing lien waivers must be executed by Contractor and by each Subcontractor (including Contractor’s affiliates) whose aggregate Subcontract price is greater than $[ * * * ]* and whose services or supply are included in the Work referenced in clause (a) or (b) of this subsection 6.4.4.2.

6.4.6.3 Full Lien Release. The final Application for Monthly Payment must be accompanied by full lien releases and waivers executed by Contractor and by each Subcontractor and by any other information, documentation or certification that Owner reasonably requests in connection with any liens or such waivers and releases.

6.4.6.4 Reconciliation. Each Application for Monthly Payment shall include a reconciliation of prior amounts paid by Owner with Contractor’s actual payments for Direct Costs. In the event that Contractor has included in an Application for Monthly Payment an amount, which when aggregated with amounts for which Contractor has previously received payment, is greater than the Direct Costs estimated to be incurred for the Project in the aggregate, including for that month, then Contractor’s next monthly invoice shall be reduced by an amount equal to the difference.

6.4.8 [Reserved]

6.4.9 [Reserved]

6.4.10 Application of Payments. Unless otherwise directed in writing by Owner, Contractor shall promptly apply amounts received in respect of each Application for Monthly Payment submitted to Owner to the payment of outstanding invoices and other amounts due in connection with the Work.

6.4.11 Withholding to Protect Owner from Loss. Owner may, without prejudice to any other rights Owner may have under the Contract, withhold the appropriate portion of any payment to Contractor to such extent as may be necessary to protect Owner from loss due to:

(i) claims filed against Owner or the Facility by third parties arising out of or in connection with Contractor’s performance of the Work or for which Contractor has an indemnity obligation to Owner under this Contract;

(ii) failure of Contractor to make undisputed payments due to a Subcontractor (other than at the written direction of Owner) for Work for which Contractor has already received payment and such failure has resulted in the Subcontractor filing a lien or other claim against Owner or the Facility Site;

(iii) liens or claims arising out of or in connection with the performance of the Work filed by a Subcontractor against the Facility (unless any such lien or claim is the result of non-payments by Owner or payments disputed by Contractor or payments withheld by Contractor at the written direction of Owner);

(iv) failure by Contractor to maintain the insurance required by this Contract;

(v) any overpayments (including those as a result of later determined Work not performed or miscalculations) made by Owner for any previous progress payment or period

(viii) Substantial Completion LDs or Performance LDs that are due Owner; provided that if Contractor and Owner disagree as to whether Substantial Completion LDs or Performance LDs are due or what the amounts of each may be, then the matter shall be submitted for Adjudication. The amount, if any, of such Substantial Completion LDs or Performance LDs determined to be payable by decision of the adjudicator shall be the amount permitted to be withheld by Owner, pending final decision pursuant to the dispute resolution mechanism under Article 17;

(ix) the amount by which any payment due under this Contract is in good faith disputed by Owner.

21

6.4.12 Lien Bonds. Notwithstanding Section 6.4.9, Owner shall release any payments withheld due to any such lien if Contractor obtains a lien bond or issues a letter of credit in the amount and with terms satisfactory to Owner.

6.4.13 Payment after Removal of Cause. When Contractor has remedied the cause for withholding any payment and has furnished evidence satisfactory to Owner of such remedy, Owner will make the payment so withheld to Contractor within fifteen (15) calendar days following Owner’s receipt of such evidence. If Contractor, after receipt of notice from Owner, fails or refuses to remedy the cause for withholding such payment within a reasonable period of time, then the Parties shall, without prejudice to any other rights Owner may have, address such claim in accordance with the procedures set forth in Article 17, but such action by Owner will not be or be considered to be a waiver of any default by Contractor under this Contract.

6.5 Fee. From time to time, Contractor may apply for a Milestone Fee Payment to the extent that Contractor can demonstrate to the reasonable satisfaction of Owner that Contractor is entitled to receive such in accordance with the Milestone Fee Payment Schedule. In that case, Owner shall pay to Contractor within fifteen (15) days of receipt of Contractor’s invoice the applicable Milestone Payment Fee for the Milestone which Contractor has completed.

6.5.1 Applications for Milestone Fee Payments. Applications for a Milestone Fee Payment shall be in the form of an invoice accompanied by documentation supporting the proper achievement of the relevant Milestones, as may reasonably be requested by Owner, and/or other documentation pertaining to claims for additional payment under the Contract.

6.6 Payment Not Acceptance. No reimbursement of Direct Costs or other payment to Contractor by Owner shall constitute an acceptance of any of the Work furnished by Contractor or shall relieve Contractor of any of its obligations or liabilities with respect thereto.

6.7 Taxes.

6.7.1 Contractor Taxes. Contractor shall be responsible for payment of all taxes, fees and contributions on or measured by Contractor’s income, and all taxes, fees and contributions on or measured by employee or other labor costs of Contractor or any Subcontractor, including without limitation all payroll or employment compensation tax, social security tax or similar taxes for Contractor’s or any Subcontractor employees (collectively, the “Contractor Taxes”). Notwithstanding the foregoing, Contractor shall not be liable for any real estate taxes, sales, use, gross receipts or ownership taxes for the Facility Site. All taxes other than Contractor Taxes shall be the responsibility of Owner, and shall be paid by Owner directly or reimbursed to Contractor outside of the Target Price.

6.7.2 Project Taxes. The Target Cost does not include any provisional or local property, license, privilege, sales, use, excise, value added, or other similar tax which may now or hereafter be imposed by the federal or any state government of the United States of America or any of their respective political subdivisions upon the sale, purchase or use by Contractor of materials, supplies, equipment or services or labor (other than employees of Contractor) for the Project (collectively, the “Project Taxes”). Contractor shall pay Project Taxes directly to the applicable governmental authorities imposing such. Owner shall reimburse Contractor outside of the Target Cost for any such Project Taxes paid by Contractor directly to the applicable governmental authorities within thirty (30) days after receipt of appropriate supporting documentation and an accompanying invoice. Contractor shall use reasonable efforts to efficiently manage its provision of the Work so as to minimize the incurrence of Project Taxes. Contractor will use prudence and diligence in the administration of Project Taxes to be paid by Contractor hereunder, and Contractor shall confirm with Owner in advance any discretionary action, election or omission permitted in connection with Project Taxes.

6.8 Reconciliation.

6.8.1 Final Accounting and Adjustment. After Final Completion of the Project (including Phase 1 and Phase 2), but no later than thirty (30) days after Contractor has submitted the Application for Monthly Payment covering the period through such Final Completion, together with all invoices not yet submitted for Work done through such Final Completion and lien waivers in respect thereto, and any other documents reasonably required by Owner, the Parties shall conduct a final accounting and reconciliation (in a manner consistent with Section 6.4.4) of the Actual Costs with the Target Price, taking into account the effect if any, of any Change Orders.

22

6.8.1.1 If, based on such accounting, Contractor is entitled to a payment by virtue of the application of Section 6.3, Owner shall pay Contractor such amounts.

6.8.1.2 If, based on such accounting, Owner is entitled to receive a payment from Contractor by virtue of the application of Section 6.3, Contractor shall pay Owner such amounts.

6.8.2 Reconciliation Payment. Any required payment due to either Party as a result of the final accounting and reconciliation pursuant to this Section 6.8 shall be made from the appropriate Party to the other within fifteen (15) days after the Parties agree on such reconciliation.

6.9 Late Payment / Non-Payment. Late payments shall bear interest at the rate published from time to time in the Wall Street Journal as the prime interest rate (the “Prime Rate”), plus [ * * * ]* %; provided, however, that the following criteria shall apply to all delayed payments:

6.9.1 No interest shall accrue with respect to any late payment unless and until Contractor has provided written notice to Owner that interest will accrue from the date of such notice.

6.9.2 A payment shall not be deemed nor treated as a late payment to the extent that Owner disputes in good faith the obligation to make payment or the amount of such payment and Owner notifies Contractor of the existence and reasons for such dispute. Owner shall, pending the resolution of such dispute, pay the undisputed amount of the requested payment.

6.9.3 If Owner disputes a payment request in whole or in part, the parties shall first attempt to resolve the dispute among commercial representatives. If the parties fail to reach agreement on all or any portion of the disputed payment within seven (7) Business Days of first discussing the issue, either party may submit the issue to Adjudication. Payment of any amounts determined to be due and owing pursuant to the Adjudication process shall be paid within five (5) Business Days of the Adjudication decision.

6.9.4 If in the course of Adjudication it is determined that the basis for withholding payment is frivolous, then the full amount wrongfully withheld shall bear interest from the date initially due at the Prime Rate, plus [ * * * ]^* percent ([ * * * ]^*%).

6.9.5 If following Adjudication of any disputed payment it is determined through the formal dispute resolution process pursuant to Article 17 that Owner over-paid for Work, then Contractor shall repay the amount of such over-charges, plus interest thereon at the Prime Rate, plus [ * * * ]^* percent ([ * * * ]^*%); and if it is determined that Contractor intentionally over-charged Owner, then such overcharges shall be repaid in an amount equal to the overcharge, plus interest thereon at the Prime Rate, plus [ * * * ]^* percent ([ * * * ]^*%).

6.9.6 For the avoidance of doubt, Contractor shall not be entitled to suspend or terminate its performance of the Work for non-payment pursuant to Section 14.9 unless and until (a) the sum is undisputed by Owner or (b) Contractor has exhausted the remedies set out in Sections 6.9.1-6.9.3 above and the adjudicator or trier of fact, as applicable, has determined that Owner is obligated to pay such sum; and in each case, (c) an officer of Contractor has provided not less than five (5) days’ written notice to the Owner’s Executive Representative of Contractor’s intent to suspend or terminate its performance pursuant to Section 14.9. Upon Contractor’s receipt from Owner of any amounts due and owing pursuant as provided in this Section 6.9.6, Contractor shall not suspend its performance of the Work or, if such performance has been suspended, shall promptly reinstate its performance of the Work.

ARTICLE 7

Completion, Acceptance and Liquidated Damages

7.1 Guaranteed Substantial Completion Dates. Except as otherwise stated in this Contract, Contractor guarantees that:

(i) Phase 1 will achieve Substantial Completion on or before [ * * * ]^*; and

______________

^* CONFIDENTIAL PORTION OMITTED AND FILED SEPARATELY WITH THE SEC.

23

(ii) Phase 2 will achieve Substantial Completion on or before [ * * * ]^*, (the date required for Substantial Completion of Phase 1 or Phase 2, as applicable, being referred to as the “Guaranteed Substantial Completion Dates” as each such date may be modified from time to time by issuance of a Change Order).

7.2 Substantial Completion. Substantial Completion of Phase 1or Phase 2, as applicable, will be achieved when each of the following conditions has been met:

7.2.1 Contractor has conducted the Completion Tests and the Project meets the Minimum Performance Levels for each of Phase 1 or Phase 2, as applicable, in accordance with Appendix D and Appendix G, respectively.

7.2.2 Contractor has delivered to Owner, in content and form reasonably satisfactory to Owner, (a) copies of all Subcontracts; (b) written assignments of the Subcontractor warranties, as required under Section 2.10.5; (c) a list of the names, addresses, and telephone numbers of the Subcontractors providing such warranties; (d) the lien releases and waivers as are required under Section 6.4.4.2 and 6.4.4.3;

7.2.3 Owner and Contractor have agreed upon the final Punch-List, as described in Section7.8;

7.2.4 Contractor has completed the Work except for any remaining items set forth in the approved Punch-List;

7.2.5 Contractor has provided Owner with the specialty tools required for the operation and maintenance of Phase 1 or Phase 2, as applicable.

7.2.6 Contractor has provided Owner with the documentation required for the operation and maintenance of Phase 1 or Phase 2, as applicable, as more fully described in Appendix Q;

7.2.7 Contractor has provided Owner with the training to be delivered under the Contract as required for the operation and maintenance of Phase 1 or Phase 2, as applicable.

7.3 Notice and Report of Substantial Completion. When Contractor believes that it has achieved Substantial Completion for Phase 1 or Phase 2, as applicable, Contractor shall deliver a written notice of such determination (“Notice of Substantial Completion”) to Owner for the applicable phase. The Notice of Substantial Completion shall contain a report in form reasonably acceptable to Owner and with sufficient detail to enable Owner to determine whether Substantial Completion of Phase 1 or Phase 2, as applicable, has been achieved.

7.4 Achievement of Substantial Completion. Upon receipt of the initial or any subsequent Notice of Substantial Completion, Owner shall use commercially reasonable efforts to inspect the Facility within five (5) Business Days and either: (a) deliver to Contractor a written certification stating that it has achieved Substantial Completion (the “Substantial Completion Certificate”); or (b) notify Contractor in writing that Substantial Completion has not been achieved and stating the reasons therefore; provided, however, that the issuance by Owner of the Substantial Completion Certificate shall not constitute a waiver by Owner of any warranty claims it may have.

7.4.1 If, following the initial or any subsequent Notice of Substantial Completion, Owner notifies Contractor that it has not achieved Substantial Completion, Contractor will promptly undertake such action or Work as necessary to achieve Substantial Completion and shall issue a subsequent Notice of Substantial Completion to Owner.

7.4.2 If, following the initial or any subsequent Notice of Substantial Completion, Owner certifies that Substantial Completion has been achieved then the date of Contractor’s most recent Notice of Substantial Completion, and not the date of Owner’s certification, shall be deemed the date that Substantial Completion was actually achieved.

______________

^* CONFIDENTIAL PORTION OMITTED AND FILED SEPARATELY WITH THE SEC.

24

7.4.3 If, following the initial or any subsequent Notice of Substantial Completion, Owner has not delivered to Contractor a notice under Section 7.4(a) or (b) as the case may be within 2 Business Days of the Contractor having provided a further notice to Owner that Substantial Completion will be deemed to occur in the absence thereof, then the date of Contractor’s most recent Notice of Substantial Completion, and not the date of Owner’s certification, shall be deemed the date that Substantial Completion was actually achieved.

Subsequent to achievement of Substantial Completion for Phase 1, Owner shall grant Contractor reasonable adequate and timely access to the Phase 1 work to enable Contractor to perform the remainder of the Work within the Approved Project Schedule and the Target Price consistent with both Contractor’s need to access the Phase 1 work (to maintain the Phase 2 schedule) and Owner’s need to operate the Phase 1 work.

7.5A Late Substantial Completion Liquidated Damages. If Substantial Completion does not occur for Phase 1 or Phase 2, as applicable, on or before the Guaranteed Substantial Completion Date for Phase 1 or Phase 2, as applicable, having taken into account the effect of any Change Orders, and in the case of Phase 1 the manner prescribed in Appendix D-2, and provided always that such sum shall be subject to adjustment by reference to any subsequent extension of time with respect to which it is either agreed or determined that Contractor has an entitlement, then notwithstanding the provisions of Section 9.2, Contractor shall pay to Owner, not as a penalty, but as late Substantial Completion liquidated damages (the “Late Substantial Completion LDs”), in the amount of (i) $[ * * * ]^* for each [ * * * ]^* after the Guaranteed Substantial Completion Date for [ * * * ]^* by which Contractor fails to achieve Substantial Completion for [ * * * ]^* and (ii) $[ * * * ]^* for each [ * * * ]^* occurring more than [ * * * ]^* after the Guaranteed Substantial Completion for [ * * * ]^* by which Contractor fails to achieve Substantial Completion for [ * * * ]^*. In no event shall the Late Substantial Completion LDs exceed [ * * * ]^* percent ([ * * * ]^*%) of the [ * * * ]^* (the “Delay LD Cap”).

If Substantial Completion does not occur for Phase 1 or Phase 2, as applicable, and either (a) the Delay LD Cap has been reached, or (b) [ * * * ]^* have passed from the Guaranteed Substantial Completion Date (after taking into account any Change Orders which extend the Guaranteed Completion Date), whichever is first, then Contractor shall, within [ * * * ]^* of receipt of a request for a meeting from Owner, meet with Owner to establish a reasonable date (which date shall be not more than [ * * * ]^* following the date on which the Delay LD Cap is reached or [ * * * ]^* following the Guaranteed Substantial Completion Date, whichever is first) by which Contractor shall cause Substantial Completion for the applicable Phase to be achieved (the “Prolonged Delay Date”). If Contractor fails to achieve Substantial Completion on or before the Prolonged Delay Date, or if the Prolonged Delay Date is determined to occur more than [ * * * ]^* after the Guaranteed Substantial Completion Date, then Owner shall have, in addition to all other rights Owner has hereunder, the right to terminate this Contract. In the event that Phase 1 has failed to achieve Substantial Completion, but Owner and Contractor agree that one or both Phase 1 turbine generators are capable of being safely operated and dispatched and if Owner elects in its sole discretion to dispatch either or both Phase 1 turbine(s), then the Late Substantial Completion LDs will be suspended in an amount equal to $[ * * * ]^* per [ * * * ]^* per Phase 1 turbine so dispatched. Contractor acknowledges that the decision to dispatch or not one or more turbine(s) is based on numerous factors, and that in no event shall Owner be deemed to have failed to mitigate its damages should it elect not to dispatch one or both turbine(s) pursuant to the preceding sentence. No suspension of Late Substantial Completion LDs will have the effect of decreasing the amount available to Owner [ * * * ]^*.

7.5B Early Substantial Completion Bonus. If Substantial Completion occurs for Phase 1 on or prior to [ * * * ]^*, then Owner shall pay to Contractor an early completion bonus of $[ * * * ]^*. If Substantial Completion occurs for Phase 1 after [ * * * ]^*, but before [ * * * ]^*, then Owner shall pay to Contractor an early completion bonus of $[ * * * ]^*. If Substantial Completion occurs for Phase 1 after [ * * * ]^*, Contractor will not be entitled to an early completion bonus. For the avoidance of doubt, the determination of whether early completion bonuses are to be paid are determined solely by whether Substantial Completion occurs on or before the specified date, and not for the reasons that Substantial Completion does not occur by such date, including without limitation for reasons of force majeure and Owner’s actions or failures to act. In no event shall Owner act or fail to act without cause and with the intent and objective to cause delays for purposes of avoiding the payment of early completion bonuses.

7.6A Performance Liquidated Damages. To the extent that Phase 1 or Phase 2, as applicable, fails to meet its Performance Guaranty (other than for reasons for which Contractor is not responsible and not, by way of example only, by reason of defects or deficiencies of the Owner Furnished Equipment), Contractor shall pay to Owner, not as a penalty but as Performance Guaranty liquidated damages (the “Performance LDs”), the amounts of:

(i) [ * * * ]^*.

(ii) [ * * * ]^*

(iii) [ * * * ]^* for each BTU/Kwh excess during the [ * * * ]^* above the Guaranteed Heat Rate for [ * * * ]^* set forth in Appendix G.

In no event shall the Performance LDs exceed [ * * * ]^* percent ([ * * * ]^*%) of the Target Price (the “Performance LD Cap”).

7.6 B. Performance Bonus. If it is established through the Performance Tests that the [ * * * ]^* for the Facility is less than the [ * * * ]^*, then Owner shall pay to Contractor an amount equal to $[ * * * ]^* times the amount (in kW) by which the actual [ * * * ]^* is less than the [ * * * ]^*, less costs incurred (if any) incurred as Direct Costs but not included in the original specification of the Work to achieve such reduction in [ * * * ]^*.

7.6 C Exclusive Nature of Liquidated Damages. The liquidated damages payable pursuant to Sections 7.5 and 7.6 shall be Contractor’s sole monetary (i.e. compensatory damages) obligation with respect to its failure to achieve the Guaranteed Substantial Completion Date and the Performance Guaranty, respectively; provided, however, that amounts payable or incurred by Contractor in connection with Section 6.3 (Contractor’s Excess Cost Liability), Section 10.1 (Warranties), Section 13.1 (Indemnity), Section 14.6 (Termination for Contractor Default, and Section 14.7 (Consequences of Termination) shall be in addition to an amounts payable as liquidated damages. The Parties acknowledge and agree that it is difficult or impossible to determine with precision the amount of damages that would or might be incurred by Owner as a result of Contractor’s failure to achieve the Guaranteed Substantial Completion Date and the Performance Guaranty, respectively. It is understood and agreed by the Parties that if Owner shall be damaged by the failure of Contractor to meet such obligations, (i) it would be impracticable or extremely difficult to fix the actual damages resulting therefrom, (ii) any sums which would be payable under Sections 7.5 and 7.6 are in the nature of liquidated damages and not a penalty and are fair and reasonable, and (iii) any such payment represents a reasonable estimate of acceptable compensation for the losses that may reasonably be anticipated from such failure.

7.7 Transfer of Possession and Control of the Facility to Owner. Upon Substantial Completion of Phase 1 and Phase 2, as applicable, pursuant to Section 7.2, Owner shall, without relieving Contractor of its other obligations pursuant to this Contract (including but not limited to meeting its warranty obligations hereunder), thereafter be responsible for risk of loss and the care, custody, control, operation and maintenance of the applicable phase. Prior to possession and control by Owner and in consultation with technical advisors for Owner Furnished Equipment and with Owner, Contractor shall direct the operation of Phase 1 or Phase 2, as applicable, in a manner consistent with Prudent Electric Power Industry Practices, Applicable Laws, Applicable Permits and any instructions given by Owner consistent with the Contract Documents. Following transfer of possession and control of Phase 1 or Phase 2, as applicable, to Owner and prior to Final Completion, Contractor shall have reasonable access to the Facility and Facility Site and the reasonable cooperation of Owner so as to complete any Work still remaining to be performed hereunder including the Punch-List items and Warranty work, all in accordance with this Contract.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, after Owner takes possession and control of the applicable phase, Contractor shall continue to perform the Work necessary to achieve Final Completion.

7.8 Creation of Punch-List. No later than [ * * * ]^* prior to the then-scheduled date of Substantial Completion, Contractor will prepare and deliver to Owner a draft Punch List and the proposed time limits within which Contractor or third parties retained by Contractor will complete such remaining Work. Owner’s Authorized Representative and Contractor’s Authorized Representative will within [ * * * ]^*, meet and consult in good faith to agree upon the final Punch List (which shall include the approved time limits within which Contractor or the third parties retained by Contractor will perform such remaining Work). Once the final Punch-List is agreed upon, Contractor will immediately beginto complete the items on the Punch List.

The foregoing limitation shall not limit the liability of either Party in cases of fraud, gross negligence or willful misconduct. Furthermore, the Parties hereby expressly agree that the following shall not be deemed to be special, incidental or consequential damages: Late Substantial Completion LDs pursuant to Section 7.5 and Performance LDs pursuant to Section 7.6.

9.3 Proof of Actual Damages if Liquidated Damages Held Unenforceable. In the event that provisions for payment of liquidated damages in this Contract are held to be unenforceable (as opposed to a holding that they are not due and payable because the conditions for payment have not been met), or are determined to constitute a type of damages not permitted under Section 9.2 above or otherwise, in whole or in part, Owner shall be entitled to collect from Contractor the proven damages to Owner resulting from delay in the Project’s reaching Substantial Completion by the Guaranteed Substantial Completion Date, as applicable, or from the failure of the Project to achieve an applicable Performance Guaranty, whether characterized as direct damages, indirect damages or otherwise, but subject in each case to the maximum accrual rates, amounts and limitations of liability which would have been payable if the liquidated damages provisions had been enforceable. Provided, however, that in the event the provisions for the payment of liquidated damages in this Contract are held to be unenforceable as a result of a claim, objection, defense, dispute or proceeding raised or brought by Contractor as part of or during the hearing of which Contractor argues that the said provisions are unenforceable on the grounds that such liquidated damages should be construed at law as and/or amount to a penalty (as opposed to an argument or suggestion that Contractor is not liable to pay liquidated damages pursuant to the Contract), Contractor shall pay to Owner all costs, losses and damages whatsoever, whether direct, indirect, consequential or otherwise, incurred or payable by Owner due to the circumstances giving rise to the claim for the payment of liquidated damages which has been made by Owner, which payments shall not be subject to any caps on liability.

Changes

11.1 Changes.

11.1.1 From time to time circumstances may arise which vary, alter, amend, change (whether by addition or omission) the nature and/or extent of the Work (as set out in the Appendices of this Contract) or the manner or circumstances in which it is expected to be conducted, including any addition to, deletion from, suspension of or other modification to the quality, function or intent of the Work (each a “Change”).

11.1.2 No Change shall be effective unless authorized by Owner by issuance of a written order (each such order, a “Change Order”) pursuant to the provisions of this Article 11.

11.1.3 The Owner shall when reviewing each potential Change and determining the nature and extent of any Change Order which is to be granted in accordance with the subsequent paragraphs of this Article consider in detail the following information:

11.1.3.1 The nature, scope and extent of the Change, including but not limited to any additions or deletions from the Scope of Work;

11.1.3.2 The effect, if any, of the Change on the Target Price;

11.1.3.3 The effect, if any, of the Change on the Approved Project Schedule, Owner Critical Schedule Milestones, Contractor Critical Schedule Milestones or on the Guaranteed Substantial Completion Date(s), as applicable;

11.1.3.4 The effect, if any, of the Change on the amount or use of Contingency or on the amount of the Fee; provided, however, that in no event shall the amount of the Fee be subject to change for any Change that does not constitute a material change in the Scope of Work requested by Owner; and

11.1.3.5 Such other information as may reasonably be necessary for the implementation of the Change Order, including but not limited to the effect on any other provisions hereof which may be impacted by the Change.

Owner shall, in the case of an Owner Initiated Change or, if it elects to do so, in the case of Contractor Initiated Changes, and in all events in the case of Required Changes, thereafter issue such Change Order having regard to all such circumstances as is just and equitable and in a form substantially similar to the Change Order Form attached hereto as Appendix M-2 which shall address, to the extent required, all of the issues set out in this Section 11.1.3.

11.1.4 In the case of any request for a Change Order which is permitted to be made in accordance with this Contract, it shall take the form of a Change Order Request (each a “Change Order Request”) which shall be delivered to Owner in writing as soon as possible and in any event within [ * * * ]^* days after Contractor becomes aware of the circumstances which it believes (or through the exercise of Prudent Electric Power Industry Practices should believe) necessitates a Change. In no case shall Contractor be entitled to recover costs as a Change Order in connection with conditions that give rise to such Change Order arising prior the date on which Contractor requests the Change Order, except to the extent that such costs are incurred reasonably and properly in order to achieve the Guaranteed Completion Dates. Any Change Order Request shall be in a form substantially similar to the Change Order Request attached hereto as Appendix M-1 and comprising the following information: (a) the factors necessitating or the basis for the Change; (b) the impact, if any, which the proposed Change is likely to have on the Target Cost, the Contingency, and/or the Fee; (c) the impact, if any, which the proposed Change is likely to have on the timely achievement of Approved Project Schedule (including the Guaranteed Substantial Completion Dates); (d) other impacted provisions hereof; and (e) such other information which Owner may reasonably request in connection with such proposed Change.

11.1.5 The issuance of a Change Order shall not result in invalidation of this Contract.

11.1.6 Except with respect to an Owner-Initiated Change, as to which the disregarded amount shall be $[ * * * ]^*, no circumstances will constitute grounds for a Required Change Order or a Contractor Initiated Change Order unless and to the extent that (i) the costs of such Change Order, in either case, is in excess of $[ * * * ]^*, or (ii) the effect of such Change Order request impairs the achievement of an Owner Critical Schedule Milestone or a Contractor Critical Schedule Milestone, as applicable, by more than 3 days (except in circumstances where Contractor has no means of recovering such schedule impairment in which case Contractor shall be entitled to a Change Order if Contractor would otherwise have been so entitled). For the avoidance of doubt, neither party shall game or otherwise manipulate the foregoing process, by aggregating or disaggregating cost and/or circumstances as the case may be (or otherwise), for the purpose of recovering or avoiding additional cost or time in accordance with the foregoing.

11.1.7 Each Change Order issued shall provide with respect to (a) an Owner-Initiated Change (but only for those in excess in each case of the disregarded amount identified in 11.1.6) for an increase (or decrease, as the case may be) in the Fee in an amount equal to [ * * * ]^* percent ([ * * * ]^*%) of the amount of the Change Order attributable to services provided by Contractor’s Personnel, and [ * * * ]^* percent ([ * * * ]^*%) of the amount of the Change Order attributable to equipment and materials; and (b) a Contractor-Initiated Change for an increase (or decrease, as the case may be) in the Fee as may be agreed by Owner and Contractor. No adjustment in the Fee shall be made in connection with any Required Change.

11.1.8 Change Orders (in each case in excess of the applicable disregarded amount) shall address the change (if any) in the amount of the Contingency in one of the following three manners:

a. Owner and Contractor shall agree in advance to a lump-sum payment for the Change outside of the Target Price, in which event no change shall be made in the amount of the Contingency;

b. Owner and Contractor shall agree upon the amount by which the Change will impact the Target Cost, in which case Owner and Contractor shall agree upon the amount, if any, of any change in the Contingency; or

c. Owner and Contractor shall agree as to the nature and extent of the Change, but in lieu of determining a lump-sum payment or changing the Target Cost or Contingency, Contractor shall perform the activities associated with the Change on a cost-reimbursement basis, in which event no change shall be made in the amount of the Contingency.

11.2 Procedure for Changes.

11.2.1 Changes Initiated by Contractor. Contractor may at any time make proposals to Owner for improvements, efficiencies, cost savings and other similar Changes to the Work (each a “Contractor-Initiated Change”), but no such proposal shall be carried out by Contractor except as instructed in writing by Owner in the form of a Change Order, which Owner may in its discretion elect to issue as it sees fit. Such proposals of Contractor shall be submitted in the form of a written Change Order Request in the manner substantially as set out in 11.1.4, and shall also contain and be supplemented with such information or additional information as Owner may reasonably require in order to effect a reasoned decision as to the implementation, or rejection, (as the case may be) of the Change Order Request.

11.2.2 Changes Initiated by Owner. If Owner desires to make a Change (each an “Owner-Initiated Change”) not comprising rectification or recovery Work due to Contractor’s negligence or breach of this Contract, Owner will submit a written “Change Order Notice” to Contractor substantially in the form of Appendix M-3 and comprising the nature and extent of the proposed change to the Scope of Work together with, to the extent available and/or applicable, Owner’s opinion as to those matters required to be taken into account in accordance with Section 11.1.

______________

32

Contractor will promptly review the Change Order Notice and notify Owner in writing within a reasonable amount of time of the options for implementing the proposed Change (including, if possible, any option that does not involve an extension of time) and the estimated effect(s), if any, that each such option would have on the Target Cost, Contingency, Fee, the Approved Project Schedule, and any other affected provision herein, as applicable. Such response shall also contain all those matters required to be set out in a Change. Order Request. Based upon such information, Owner may, in its sole discretion, issue a Change Order making a Change.

11.2.3 Required Change Orders. Contractor shall be entitled to the issue of Change Orders pursuant to Article 11.1 in connection with any circumstances which constitute a Change and which are attributable to the matters identified in subparagraphs (a) through (g) below (each a “Required Change”):

(a) Due to Change in Applicable Law/Permit or Site Condition. If and to the extent that (i) a change in Applicable Law or Applicable Permit after the Commencement Date or (ii) a Facility Site condition not contemplated or expected by Contractor in connection with its obligations under Section 2.8 or as anticipated in Contingency, results in an increase in the cost of the Work or extends the Approved Project Schedule, and in each case only to the extent that such increase or extension is greater than the threshold amounts identified in Section 11.1.6 above.

(b) Change Order Due to Suspension of Work by Owner. In the event that Owner suspends the Work (i) in the circumstances with respect to which the Contractor is entitled to a Change Order as set out in Article 14.1; or (ii) in the circumstances set out in Section 14.2, or (iii) Contractor suspends the Work pursuant to Section 6.9.6.

(c) Change Order Due to Non-Performance by Owner. If Owner fails to perform or is late in performing in any material way any material obligation of Owner under this Contract and the cost to Contractor is in excess of $[ * * * ]^* or the delay impairs the achievement of an Owner Critical Schedule Milestone or a Contractor Critical Schedule Milestone by more than 3 days (except in circumstances where Contractor has no means of recovering such schedule impairment in which case Contractor shall be entitled to a Change Order if Contractor would otherwise have been so entitled). For the avoidance of doubt, neither party shall game or otherwise manipulate the foregoing process, by aggregating or disaggregating cost and/or circumstances as the case may be (or otherwise), for the purpose of recovering or avoiding additional cost or time in accordance with the foregoing.

(d) Change Order Due to Hazardous Substances.

(i) Delays Due to Suspension of Work. If Contractor encounters on the Facility Site material reasonably believed to be a Hazardous Substance that existed prior to the date of the Contract and, as required under the Contract, Contractor ceases performance of any Work in the area affected and reports the condition to Owner in writing, and in each case the cost to Contractor is in excess of $[ * * * ].^*

(ii) Costs and Delays Due to Removal Activities. If Contractor encounters on the Facility Site material reasonably believed to be a Hazardous Substance that existed prior to the date of the Contract and Owner instructs Contractor to take remediation action (consistent with Applicable Law) in connection with such Hazardous Substance in order to allow continued performance of the Work and Contractor accepts taking such action, such acceptance not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed.

(e) Owner Critical Schedule Milestones. Where Owner has failed, in any material regard, to meet its obligations with respect to an Owner Critical Schedule Milestone and as a result of such failure Contractor’s ability to meet any Contractor Critical Schedule Milestone or Substantial Completion has been adversely affected.

______________

33

(f) Phase 2 Works. Where Owner has failed, in any material regard, to meet its obligations with respect to permitting Contractor access to the Facility for purposes of completing the Phase 2 Work and as a result of such failure Contractor’s ability to meet any Contractor Critical Schedule Milestone or Substantial Completion has been adversely affected.

(g) Other Changes. In the following circumstances where the Contract contemplates an event impacting Contractor’s performance, cost and/or schedule in circumstances for which it is not responsible, namely: Force Majeure; delay in delivery of and/or deficiencies (including with respect to performance and completeness) with respect to Owner Furnished Equipment .

Provided that, in each and every such case, Contractor shall use or have used commercially reasonable efforts to mitigate potential delays to the Approved Project Schedule and/or potential increases to the Target Cost, Contingency and Fee (the cost of such mitigation efforts to be addressed in the Change Order).

11.2.4 Except in the circumstances as set out in this Section 11.2 and with respect to which an application is properly made in accordance with this Article 11, Contractor shall not be entitled to seek either a Change, Change Order, extension of the Guaranteed Substantial Completion Date, adjustment to the Target Cost, Contingency or Fee or to receive additional remuneration, cost or reimbursement with respect to the Work.

11.3 Continued Performance Pending Resolution of Disputes. Notwithstanding and pending the resolution of any dispute with respect to a Change or Change Order, Contractor must proceed with the Work and the performance of any Change ordered by Owner or any Required Change, unless Owner directs Contractor not to so proceed, provided that Contractor is being paid on a current basis for all its undisputed Direct Costs and for all disputed Direct Costs which have been ordered to be paid through Adjudication relating thereto.

11.4 Preservation of Schedule and Target Costs. For the avoidance of doubt, where any proposed Change or Change Order Request may give rise to an extension of any of the Approved Project Schedule or an increase in the Target Cost Contingency or Fee, then Owner reserves in its sole discretion and to the extent possible, the right to require Contractor to vary, amend or effect such other Change to the Work in such a manner as will mitigate or avoid the requirement for such extension of time or increase of cost

ARTICLE 12

Force Majeure

12.1 Force Majeure Event.

12.2 Excused Performance. If either Party is rendered wholly or partly unable to perform its obligations under this Contract because of a Force Majeure event, that Party will be excused from whatever performance is affected by the Force Majeure event to the extent so affected; provided, that:

12.2.1 the non-performing Party gives the other Party written notice describing the particulars of the occurrence in the manner required by Article 11;

12.2.2 the suspension of performance is of no greater scope and of no longer duration than is reasonably required by the Force Majeure event;

34

Owner shall assume on behalf of the Contractor Indemnitee, and conduct with due diligence and in good faith, the defense thereof with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Contractor Indemnitee subject to all insurers rights; provided, that the Contractor Indemnitee shall have the right to be represented therein by advisory counsel of its own selection and at Contractor’s expense; and provided further, that if the defendants in any such action include both Owner and the Contractor Indemnitee, and if the Contractor Indemnitee shall have reasonably concluded that there may be legal defenses available to it which are different from, additional to or inconsistent with those available to Owner, then the Contractor Indemnitee shall have the right to select separate counsel to participate in the defense of such action on its own behalf, and at Contractor’s own expense.

13.2.3 No Limitation to Workers’ Benefits. In any Contractor Claims against any Contractor Indemnitee by any employee of Owner, the indemnification obligation under this Section 13.2.3 shall not be limited in any way by any limitation on the amount or type of damages, compensation or benefits payable by or for Owner or any Owner contractor under workers’ or workmen’s compensation acts, disability benefit acts or other employee benefit acts.

ARTICLE 14

Suspension and Termination

14.1 Right to Suspend Work for Cause. If following notice from Owner in writing (a) Contractor fails to correct defective Work (or having commenced such correction fails diligently to pursue completion of such corrective action in a manner consistent with the provisions of the Contract and with Prudent Electric Power Industry Practices), or (b) Contractor’s actions otherwise continue materially to fail to conform to the requirements of the Contract Documents, then Owner may, upon written notice to Contractor, temporarily suspend performance of all or part of the Work until the reason for such suspension has been remedied; provided, however, that Owner’s right to issue such order is in addition to Owner’s other rights and remedies hereunder. The right of Owner to temporarily suspend Contractor’s performance will not give rise to any duty on the part of Owner to exercise this right for the benefit of Contractor or any other Person. To the extent only that the reason for any such suspension is due to Contractor’s actions or inactions that are inconsistent with the Contract Documents, the Contractor shall not be entitled to a Change Order. Otherwise, any such suspension shall proceed under Article 11. In addition, Owner may, upon written notice to Contractor, order Contractor to temporarily suspend performance if the activities of Contractor or Contractor’s Personnel reasonably appear to Owner to cause or threaten to cause danger to life or damage to property. To the extent only that the reason for any such suspension is due to Contractor’s actions or inactions that are inconsistent with the Contract Documents, the Contractor shall not be entitled to a Change Order. Otherwise, any such suspension shall proceed under Article 11.

14.2 Right to Suspend Work for Convenience. Owner may from time to time for its convenience, upon written notice to Contractor, suspend the Work without terminating this Contract. Upon receipt of such notice,

Contractor will suspend its performance of the Work in the manner required in the notice. If Owner does not request Contractor to resume the Work within [ * * * ]* from the original date of the notice of suspension, then Contractor may give notice to the Owner that unless Owner ends the suspension within 14 days, Contractor will be entitled, on written notice to Owner expiring after such period, to terminate the Contract and such termination shall be deemed a termination for the convenience of Owner pursuant to Section 14.3.

14.3 Termination for Convenience. Owner may terminate this Contract at any time without cause prior to its completion by sending to Contractor written notice of such termination. Within [ * * * ]* of such termination, Owner shall pay to Contractor in full satisfaction and discharge of all liabilities and obligations owed to Contractor; Direct Costs that Contractor has incurred to the date of termination, to the extent reasonably and properly incurred and provided always that the Owner shall not be obliged to pay disallowable costs as set forth in Section 6.2.2; demobilization cost; cancellation charges incurred by Contractor, including for all Work satisfactorily performed by Contractor as of the date of termination but in each case, excluding costs, damages or anticipated profits based upon Work not yet performed. In addition, Owner shall pay Contractor a percentage of the outstanding Fee (taking into account adjustments made to such amounts by Change Orders); provided always that Owner shall not use termination without cause with the intent and objective to deprive Contractor of amounts to which it would be entitled in the event of a cost under-run pursuant to Section 6.2, in both cases, calculated by reference to the amount of Work completed and Milestones achieved at the time of the termination for convenience. Contractor shall not be entitled to any other form of reimbursement or compensation by Owner in connection with such termination. In the event Owner terminates the Contract pursuant to this Section 14.3 prior to issuance of the [ * * * ]* and on or prior to [ * * * ]*, then Owner shall not be obligated to pay to Contractor any amount of the [ * * * ]* in excess of the [ * * * ]* paid [ * * * ]*.

If a Contractor Event of Default occurs, then Owner may, without prejudice to any other right or remedy Owner may have hereunder, at any time terminate this Contract, such termination becoming effective upon notice to Contractor.

14.4.5 Contractor has refused to bond against or removed any liens filed against the Facility by any of its Subcontractors after Contractor has received payment in full in connection with the claims which have been filed where the Owner has exhausted any other rights or remedies Owner may have.
