ARTICLE 2

RELATIONSHIP OF OWNER, CONTRACTOR AND SUBCONTRACTORS

2.1 Status of Contractor. The relationship of Contractor to Owner shall be that of an independent contractor. Any provisions of this Agreement which may appear to give Owner or the Owner Representative the right to direct or control Contractor as to details of performing the Work, or to exercise any measure of control over the Work, shall be deemed to mean that Contractor shall follow the desires of Owner or the Owner Representative in the results of the Work only and not in the means by which the Work is to be accomplished, and Contractor shall have the complete right, obligation and authoritative control over the Work as to the manner, means or details as to how to perform the Work. Nothing herein shall be interpreted to create a master-servant or principal-agent relationship between Contractor, or any of its Subcontractors or Sub-subcontractors, and Owner. Nevertheless, Contractor shall comply with all provisions, terms and conditions of this Agreement, and the fact that Contractor is an independent contractor does not relieve it from its responsibility to fully, completely, timely and safely perform the Work in compliance with this Agreement. Except to the extent set forth in this Agreement, including Sections 6.1C, 6.2D, 11.7 and 16.3, and subject at all times to Section 6.7, Owner shall not be entitled to issue any instruction or directive

- 19 -

to Contractor or any of its Subcontractors or Sub-subcontractors in connection with performance of the Work. Owner shall provide a copy to Contractor of any written communication from Owner to any Subcontractor or Sub-subcontractor that relates to Contractor’s performance of the Work.

2.2 Key Personnel, Organization Chart and Contractor Representative.

A. Key Personnel and Organization Chart. Attachment F sets forth Contractor’s organizational chart to be implemented for the Work and also contains a list of key personnel (“Key Personnel” or “Key Persons”) from Contractor’s organization who will be assigned to the Work. Key Personnel shall, unless otherwise expressly stated in Attachment F, be devoted full-time to the Work until Substantial Completion, and Key Personnel shall not be removed or reassigned without Owner’s prior written approval (such approval not to be unreasonably withheld); provided, however, Owner’s prior written approval shall not be required in the event Contractor removes or reassigns a Key Person at any time prior to Owner’s issuance of the NTP. All requests for the substitution of Key Personnel shall include a detailed explanation and reason for the request and the resumes of professional education and experience for a minimum of two (2) candidates of equal or greater qualifications and experience. Should Owner approve of the replacement of a Key Person, Contractor shall, so far as reasonably practicable, allow for an overlap of at least one (1) week during which both the Key Person to be replaced and the Owner-approved new Key Person shall work together full time. The additional cost of any replacement of such Key Personnel and overlap time shall be entirely at Contractor’s expense. Owner shall have the right, but not the obligation, at any time to reasonably request that Contractor replace any Key Person with another employee acceptable to Owner. In such event, Contractor shall reasonably consider Owner’s request that Contractor replace such Key Person.

B. Contractor Representative. Contractor designates *** as the Contractor Representative. Notification of a change in Contractor Representative shall be provided in advance, in writing, to Owner. The Contractor Representative is a Key Person.

2.3 Subcontractors and Sub-subcontractors. Owner acknowledges and agrees that Contractor intends to have portions of the Work accomplished by Subcontractors pursuant to written Subcontracts between Contractor and such Subcontractors, and that such Subcontractors may have certain portions of the Work performed by Sub-subcontractors. All Subcontracts shall, so far as reasonably practicable, be consistent with the terms or provisions of this Agreement. No Subcontractor or Sub-subcontractor is intended to be or shall be deemed a third-party beneficiary of this Agreement. Contractor shall be fully responsible to Owner for the acts and omissions of Subcontractors and Sub-subcontractors and of Persons directly or indirectly employed by either of them in the performance of the Work, as it is for the acts or omissions of Persons directly employed by Contractor. The work of any Subcontractor or Sub-subcontractor shall be subject to inspection by Owner to the same extent as the Work of Contractor. All Subcontractors and Sub-subcontractors and their respective personnel on Site or who may come on the Site or the Off-Site Rights of Way and Easements are to be instructed by Contractor in the terms and requirements of Contractor’s safety and environmental protection regulations and policies and shall be expected to comply with such regulations. In the event that any personnel are not adhering to such regulations and policies, such personnel shall be removed by Contractor. In no event shall

- 20 -

Contractor be entitled to any adjustment of the Contract Price or Project Schedule as a result of compliance with such regulations and policies set forth in the HSE Plan, or any removal of personnel necessitated by non-compliance. Nothing contained herein shall (i) create any contractual relationship between any Subcontractor and Owner, or between any Sub-subcontractor and Owner, or (ii) obligate Owner to pay or cause the payment of any amounts to Subcontractor or Sub-subcontractor.

2.4 Subcontracts and Sub-subcontracts.

A. Approved List. Section 1.7 of Attachment G sets forth a list of contractors and suppliers that Contractor and Owner have agreed are approved for selection as Subcontractors for the performance of that portion of the Work specified in Attachment G. Approval by Owner of any Subcontractors or Sub-subcontractors does not relieve Contractor of any responsibilities under this Agreement.

B. Additional Proposed Major Subcontractors. In the event that Contractor is considering the selection of a Subcontractor not listed in Section 1.7 of Attachment G for a Major Subcontract, Contractor shall (i) notify Owner of such proposed Subcontractor as soon as reasonably practicable during the selection process and furnish to Owner all information reasonably requested by Owner with respect to Contractor’s selection criteria, and (ii) notify Owner no less than ten (10) Business Days prior to the execution of the Subcontract with such Subcontractor not listed on Attachment G. Owner shall have the discretion, not to be unreasonably exercised, to reject any such proposed Subcontractor. Contractor shall not enter into any Subcontract with a proposed Subcontractor that is rejected by Owner in accordance with the preceding sentence. Owner shall undertake in good faith to review the information provided by Contractor pursuant to this Section 2.4B expeditiously and shall notify Contractor of its decision to accept or reject a proposed Subcontractor as soon as practicable after such decision is made. Failure of Owner to accept or reject a proposed Subcontractor within ten (10) Business Days shall be deemed to be an acceptance of such Subcontractor, but Owner’s acceptance of a proposed Subcontractor shall in no way relieve Contractor of its responsibility for performing the Work in compliance with this Agreement. After execution of such Subcontract, the Subcontract shall be considered a Major Subcontract and the Subcontractor shall be considered a Major Subcontractor.

C. Other Additional Proposed Subcontractors. For any Subcontractor not covered by Section 2.4A or 2.4B and which would be entering into either (a) a Subcontract having an aggregate value in excess of *** U.S. Dollars (U.S.$***), or (b) multiple Subcontracts having an aggregate value in excess of *** U.S. Dollars (U.S.$***), Contractor shall, within fifteen (15) Business Days after the execution of any such Subcontract, notify Owner in writing of the selection of such Subcontractor and inform Owner generally what portion of the Work such Subcontractor is performing.

D. Delivery of Subcontracts. Within ten (10) Days of Owner’s request, Contractor shall furnish Owner with a copy of any Subcontract, excluding provisions regarding pricing, discount or credit information, payment terms, payment schedules, retention, performance security, bid or proposal data, and any other information which Contractor or any Subcontractor reasonably considers to be commercially sensitive information.

- 21 -

E. Terms of Major Subcontracts and Sub-subcontracts. In addition to the requirements in Section 2.3 and without in any way relieving Contractor of its full responsibility to Owner for the acts and omissions of Subcontractors and Sub-subcontractors, each Major Subcontract and each Major Sub-subcontract shall contain the following provisions:

1. the Major Subcontract and the Major Sub-subcontract may be assigned to Owner without the consent of the respective Major Subcontractor or Major Sub-subcontractor; provided, however, with respect to each Construction Equipment rental or lease agreement that falls within the definition of Major Subcontract or Major Sub-subcontract, Contractor shall only be obligated to use its best efforts to include a provision that such agreement may be assigned to Owner without the consent of the respective Construction Equipment Lessor; and

2. so far as reasonably practicable, the Major Subcontractor and the Major Sub-subcontractor shall comply with all requirements and obligations of Contractor to Owner under this Agreement, as such requirements and obligations are applicable to the performance of the work under the respective Major Subcontract or Major Sub-subcontract.

F. Contractor’s Affiliates. If Contractor subcontracts with an Affiliate of Contractor for certain Work, and such Affiliate subcontracts with any entities for a portion of the Work undertaken by such Affiliate, such entities shall be treated as a Subcontractor under this Agreement.

2.5 Contractor Acknowledgements.

A. The Agreement. Prior to the execution of this Agreement, under the Technical Services Agreement, Contractor performed engineering, cost estimating and related services and developed, provided or verified all of the information that forms the Scope of Work and Design Basis (subject to Section 4.8) listed in Attachment A, for the purpose of determining that such information is adequate and sufficiently complete for Contractor to engineer, procure, construct, pre-commission, commission, start-up and test a fully operational LNG export, liquefaction and send-out terminal facility for the Contract Price, within the required times set forth in the Project Schedule, and in accordance with all requirements of this Agreement, including Applicable Codes and Standards, Applicable Law, Warranties, Minimum Acceptance Criteria and Performance Guarantee.

All coordination required of Contractor in this Section 3.24B with other Persons shall be done through Owner.

3.25 Integration with Stage 1 Liquefaction Facility.

A. No Interference with Stage 1 Liquefaction Facility. Performance of the Work shall at no time cause a suspension of operation of Subproject 1 or Subproject 2 (or any portion thereof) after substantial completion of Subproject 1 or Subproject 2 (as applicable) under the Stage 1 EPC Agreement or cause a delay in any of the target substantial completion dates or guaranteed substantial completion dates under the Stage 1 EPC Agreement, except to the extent (i) specified in Attachment X and in compliance with the requirements of Section 3.25B or (ii) agreed by the Owner Representative in writing.

B. Scheduled Activities. No later than thirty (30) Days prior to performing any Work that may interfere with the operation of Subproject 1 or Subproject 2 after substantial completion of Subproject 1 or Subproject 2 (as applicable) under the Stage 1 EPC Agreement or that may delay any of the target substantial completion dates or guaranteed substantial completion dates under the Stage 1 EPC Agreement (whether specified in Attachment X or agreed by Owner Representative in writing), Contractor shall provide Owner with a written integration plan listing the scheduled, interfering Work and proposing in detail how Contractor intends that such Work will be performed to minimize, to the greatest extent reasonably possible, interference with the operation of Subproject 1 or Subproject 2 after substantial completion of Subproject 1 or Subproject 2 (as applicable) under the Stage 1 EPC Agreement and delay of any target substantial completion dates or guaranteed substantial completion dates under the Stage 1 EPC Agreement. Such proposed plan shall (i) comply with the requirements of Section 3.25A, (ii) be scheduled so that it is not on the critical path, and (iii) at a minimum, address each of the activities identified in Attachment X and list (a) the component of the Stage 1 Liquefaction Facility

- 37 -

or the target substantial completion dates or guaranteed substantial completion dates under the Stage 1 EPC Agreement that will be impacted by such activity, (b) how such component or work will be impacted, and (c) the duration of such impact. If the plan proposed by Contractor does not meet any of the requirements in the immediately preceding sentence, or if Owner reasonably believes that the plan proposed by Contractor has not been developed to reasonably minimize the impact on the operations of Subproject 1 or Subproject 2 after substantial completion of Subproject 1 or Subproject 2 (as applicable) under the Stage 1 EPC Agreement or the delay of any target substantial completion dates or guaranteed substantial completion dates under the Stage 1 EPC Agreement, then Owner may, not later than fourteen (14) Days following receipt of the proposed plan, instruct Contractor in writing to modify the proposed plan. If Owner’s instruction restricts the duration or extent of the Work covered in the plan more than what is required by Section 3.25B(i)-(iii), then Contractor shall be entitled to a Change Order to the extent permitted under Section 6.9. Contractor shall proceed to execute such Work in accordance with the mutually agreed plan; provided that, if Owner does not respond and comment upon the Contractor’s proposed plan within fourteen (14) Days following receipt of Contractor’s proposed plan, then Contractor shall proceed to execute such Work in accordance with Contractor’s proposed plan as long as it complies with the limitations specified in Section 3.25B(i)-(iii). Notwithstanding Owner’s agreement (or failure to agree) to the schedule and the plan for the performance of such Work, Owner may, in its sole discretion, subsequently prohibit the performance of such Work occurring on the scheduled date, but in such case Contractor shall be entitled to a Change Order to the extent permitted under Section 6.9. If Owner fails to provide Contractor with access when and for the duration required by Contractor for the Work, other than for non-compliance with Section 3.25B(i)-(iii), Applicable Law, Owner Permits relating to safety, or Owner’s reasonable security requirements, then, Contractor shall be entitled to a Change Order to the extent permitted under Section 6.9.

C. Unscheduled Activities. It is the Parties’ intent that except for the activities (if any) listed in Attachment X, the performance of the Work and Contractor’s other obligations under this Agreement will not interfere with the operation of Subproject 1 or Subproject 2 after substantial completion of Subproject 1 or Subproject 2 (as applicable) under the Stage 1 EPC Agreement or cause a delay in any of the target substantial completion dates or guaranteed substantial completion dates under the Stage 1 EPC Agreement. During the performance of the Work, should a situation arise that Contractor reasonably believes has the potential of interfering with the operation of Subproject 1 or Subproject 2 after substantial completion of Subproject 1 or Subproject 2 (as applicable) under the Stage 1 EPC Agreement or causes a delay in any of the target substantial completion dates or guaranteed substantial completion dates under the Stage 1 EPC Agreement, Contractor shall, except in an emergency endangering property or any Persons, give Owner written notice as soon as possible but no later than fourteen (14) Days prior to the time that Contractor plans to perform such Work, detailing a plan that is least disruptive, to the greatest extent reasonably possible, to operations of Subproject 1 or Subproject 2 after substantial completion of Subproject 1 or Subproject 2 (as applicable) under the Stage 1 EPC Agreement or to the target substantial completion dates or guaranteed substantial completion dates under the Stage 1 EPC Agreement. Emergency actions are governed by Section 3.11. Prior to performing such Work, Owner and

- 38 -

Contractor shall mutually agree on a proposed plan for Contractor to execute such Work; provided that, if Owner fails to provide Contractor with access when and for the duration required by Contractor for the Work, other than for non-compliance with Section 3.25B(i)-(iii), Applicable Law, Owner Permits relating to safety, or Owner’s reasonable security requirements, then Contractor shall be entitled to a Change Order to the extent permitted under Section 6.9. Notwithstanding Owner’s agreement to the schedule and the plan for the performance of such Work, Owner may, in its sole discretion, subsequently prohibit the performance of such Work on such scheduled date, and Contractor shall work with Owner to develop a new plan and date for performing such Work in accordance with this Section 3.25C, and in such case Contractor shall be entitled to a Change Order to the extent permitted under Section 6.9.

3.26 Responsibility for Property. Except as expressly set forth in Section 3.25, Contractor shall limit its operations to the Stage 2 Site. Contractor shall plan and conduct its operations so that neither Contractor nor any of its Subcontractors or Sub-subcontractors shall (i) enter upon lands (other than the Stage 2 Site and Off-Site Rights of Way and Easements) or waterbodies in their natural state unless authorized by the appropriate owner or entity; (ii) close or obstruct any utility installation, highway, waterway, harbor, road or other property unless Permits are obtained and authorized by the appropriate entity or authority; or (iii) disrupt or otherwise interfere with the operation of any portion of any pipeline, telephone, conduit or electric transmission line, ditch, navigational aid, dock or structure unless otherwise specifically authorized by the appropriate entity or authority. The foregoing includes damage arising from performance of the Work through operation of Construction Equipment or stockpiling of materials. If damage occurs to Subproject 1 or Subproject 2 prior to substantial completion of such applicable Subproject 1 or Subproject 2, liability for such damage shall be governed by the Stage 1 EPC Agreement.

3.27 Explosives. Explosives shall be transported to the Site only when required to perform the Work under this Agreement and with abundant, prior notice to and written approval of Owner. Contractor shall be responsible for properly purchasing, transporting, storing, safeguarding, handling and using explosives required to perform the Work under this Agreement. Contractor shall employ competent and qualified personnel for the use of explosives and, notwithstanding any other provision in this Agreement to the contrary, shall assume full responsibility for damages claimed by any Third Party to the extent caused by the improper use of explosives by Contractor or any Subcontractor or Sub-subcontractor.

To the extent Owner has already obtained any of the Owner Permits as of the Effective Date of this Agreement, Owner shall provide copies of such Owner Permits to Contractor on or before the Effective Date. To the extent Owner has not obtained any Owner Permits prior to the Effective Date, Owner shall obtain such Owner Permits in accordance with the schedule contained in Attachment Q and Owner shall provide Contractor with complete copies of such Owner Permits within five (5) Business Days after obtaining them.

4.3 Access to the Site and Off-Site Rights of Way and Easements.

A. Subject to the terms of this Agreement, including Section 3.24, Owner shall, at NTP, provide Contractor with access to and care and custody of the Stage 2 Site. Such access shall be sufficient to permit Contractor to progress with construction on a continuous basis without material interruption or interference by others. To the extent that (i) any of Owner’s other contractors or subcontractors working at the Stage 2 Site prior to Substantial Completion, (ii) any Landowner accessing the Stage 2 Site prior to Substantial Completion (except as described in Attachment Z), or (iii) the lack of such sufficient access or a Change in Law, in any such case materially interrupts or interferes with Contractor’s

- 41 -

performance of the Work applicable to Subproject 3 and such interruption or interference adversely affects Contractor’s ability to perform the Work applicable to Subproject 3 in accordance with the Project Schedule or Contractor’s cost of performance of the Work for Subproject 3, Contractor shall be entitled to a Change Order; provided that, subject to Section 3.25, Contractor complies with the requirements in Sections 6.2, 6.5 and 6.9. In addition, Owner shall provide Contractor with reasonable access to the Stage 1 Site after substantial completion of Subproject 1 or Subproject 2, as applicable, necessary for the performance of the Work and in accordance with Section 3.25. For the avoidance of doubt, Contractor shall not be entitled to a Change Order pursuant to this Section 4.3 as a result of a Landowner or its representatives accessing the Site to perform any of those activities described in Attachment Z.

B. The Contract Price is based on Owner providing Contractor with access to the off-Site rights of way and easements listed in Attachment Y, including the temporary facility locations, dredging work locations, and disposal areas, DMPA 1 and DMPA 2, (the “Off-Site Rights of Way and Easements”) sufficient to permit Contractor to progress with construction without material interruption or interference by others while adhering to the requirements in Attachment Z. To the extent Contractor is not provided with sufficient access to such Off-Site Rights of Ways and Easements to progress with construction without material interruption or interference by others, and such interruption or interference adversely affects Contractor’s cost of performance of the Work or Contractor’s ability to perform the Work in accordance with the Project Schedule, Contractor shall be entitled to a Change Order; provided that (i) Contractor complies with the requirements set forth in Sections 6.2, 6.5 and 6.9, and (ii) at or prior to the Contract Date, Contractor did not know (based on information described in Attachment Z) that its access was or would be restricted.

4.4 Operation Personnel. Owner shall provide to Contractor a minimum of thirty (30) qualified and competent operating and maintenance personnel sufficient to commission and test the Project under the supervision of Contractor as set forth in Attachment V. Until Substantial Completion, such personnel shall be under the direction and control of and supervised by Contractor. Such operating and maintenance personnel shall be available for training as required pursuant to Section 3.5. To the extent not set forth in Attachment V, Contractor shall prepare for Owner’s review a Project Commissioning Plan regarding the utilization of Owner’s operation and maintenance personnel and Contractor’s personnel during commissioning and for the conduct of Performance Tests. Such Project Commissioning Plan shall be mutually agreed-upon by the Parties, each acting reasonably, no later than forty-five (45) Days after Owner’s receipt of Contractor’s proposed Project Commissioning Plan. Without in any way limiting Contractor’s obligation to provide forces and labor during commissioning and Performance Testing, Contractor agrees that if any activity during commissioning and Performance Testing requires direct supervision by Contractor, such supervision shall be performed by Contractor or a Subcontractor or Sub-subcontractor. Owner shall remain responsible for all costs associated with Owner’s operation and maintenance personnel, including salaries, travel and expenses.

- 45 -

3. Owner shall be in compliance with its other obligations set forth in Article 4 as necessary for the performance of the LNTP Work.

B. Notice to Proceed. Contractor shall not, and shall not be obligated to, commence performance of the Work (other than the LNTP Work) until Owner issues the full notice to proceed (“Notice to Proceed” or “NTP”) authorizing the same pursuant to the terms and conditions of this Agreement. Upon Contractor’s receipt from Owner of the NTP, Contractor shall promptly commence with the performance of the Work. The NTP shall be issued in the form attached hereto as Attachment H, Schedule H-2. Contractor shall timely file an affidavit of commencement of construction with the county clerk pursuant to Texas Property Code § 53.124(c). Owner shall not issue an NTP until the following conditions have been met:

1. Owner has furnished to Contractor reasonable documentation which demonstrates that Owner (i) has funds and (ii) has obtained financing from one or more Lenders, which combined are sufficient to fulfill Owner’s payment obligations under this Agreement, including (a) satisfaction, or waiver by Lenders, of all applicable conditions precedent to the occurrence of the closing date of the financing, which shall be prior to or contemporaneous with the issuance of the Notice to Proceed, and (b) evidence of the execution of the credit agreement with respect to such financing by Owner and Lenders (including a copy of such executed credit agreement).

C. Delayed NTP.

1. In the event Owner fails to issue the NTP in accordance with Section 5.2B by July 1, 2014, then Contractor shall, at the end of every three Month period thereafter until NTP (if any) is issued by Owner, notify Owner in writing of any impacts such delay has on Contractor’s costs of performance of the Work, including Subcontractor prices, and Contractor’s ability to perform the Work in accordance with the Agreement, including the Project Schedule and other Changed Criteria. Contractor shall not be entitled to the relief in this Section 5.2C to the extent the reason for Owner failing to issue NTP is because Contractor failed to provide the Letter of Credit in accordance with Section 9.2A.

5.3 Project Schedule. Contractor shall perform the Work in accordance with the Project Schedule.

A. Target Substantial Completion Date. Listed in Attachment E is the Target Substantial Completion Date. The Target Substantial Completion Date shall only be adjusted by Change Order as provided under this Agreement.

The Guaranteed Substantial Completion Date shall only be adjusted by Change Order as provided under this Agreement.

C. Final Completion. Contractor shall achieve Final Completion no later than *** (***) Days after achieving Substantial Completion or as soon as reasonably practicable thereafter if the Parties mutually agree (both acting reasonably).

5.4 CPM Schedule Submissions. Within fifteen (15) Days after NTP is issued in accordance with Section 5.2B, Contractor shall prepare and submit to Owner for its review a critical path method schedule (“CPM Schedule”) for the Work identifying the critical path for Subproject 3, which shall be detailed at a Level II for all activities for the Project (including engineering, procurement, construction, pre-commissioning, commissioning, testing and startup). In addition, no later than one hundred and twenty (120) Days after NTP is issued in accordance with Section 5.2B, Contractor shall submit to Owner for its review a revised CPM Schedule, which shall be detailed at a Level III for all activities for the Project (including engineering, procurement, construction, pre-commissioning, commissioning, testing and startup). The initial CPM Schedule shall govern Contractor’s Work until the revised CPM Schedule is prepared and reviewed by Owner. Each of the initial and revised CPM Schedules shall be referred to as the “CPM Schedule,” and each shall comply with the requirements of this Section 5.4 and shall be provided to Owner in its native electronic format. The CPM Schedule shall be prepared by Contractor using Primavera Project Planner. Without limitation of the foregoing, the CPM Schedule shall include the information and meet the requirements set forth in Section 8.4 of Attachment A.

5.5 Recovery and Recovery Schedule. If, at any time during the prosecution of the Work, (i) should the Monthly Progress Report show that any activity on the critical path is forty-five (45) or more Days behind schedule, or should Contractor fail to provide a Monthly

- 47 -

Progress Report in compliance with the requirements of this Agreement and Owner reasonably determines that any activity on the critical path is forty-five (45) or more Days behind schedule and (ii) Contractor or any of its Subcontractors or Sub-subcontractors are in Owner’s reasonable judgment responsible for such delay, Owner may, in addition to any other remedies that it may have under this Agreement, require that Contractor prepare a schedule to explain and display how it intends to regain compliance with the CPM Schedule (“Recovery Schedule”). Within ten (10) Business Days after the determination by Owner of the requirement for a Recovery Schedule, Contractor shall prepare the Recovery Schedule and submit it to Owner for its review. The Recovery Schedule shall (i) represent Contractor’s best judgment as to how it shall regain compliance with the CPM Schedule, (ii) be prepared in accordance with GECP, (iii) have a level of detail sufficient for Contractor to direct, manage and perform the Work, and (iv) have a maximum duration of sixty (60) Days unless recovery cannot be reasonably achieved in such time, in which case the duration of the Recovery Schedule shall be for that period of time reasonably necessary to regain compliance with the CPM Schedule. Contractor shall address all comments received from Owner during Owner’s review of the Recovery Schedule, and Contractor shall provide a written statement describing why any of Owner’s comments or proposed changes to the Recovery Schedule were not implemented by Contractor. Any of Owner’s comments or proposed changes to the Recovery Schedule that Contractor implements should be reflected in the revised Recovery Schedule. The revised Recovery Schedule shall then be the schedule which Contractor shall use in planning, organizing, directing, coordinating, performing, and executing the Work (including all activities of Subcontractors and Sub-subcontractors) to regain compliance with the CPM Schedule. The cost of preparing and executing the Recovery Schedule shall be at Contractor’s sole cost and expense; provided, however, if the preparation of a Recovery Schedule is combined with a request by Owner for a Change Order and the cost of preparing the Change Order for such request (excluding any costs associated with recovery) exceeds Thirty Thousand U.S. Dollars (U.S.$30,000), then Contractor is entitled to reimbursement for such preparation costs in accordance with Section 6.1A. Owner’s review and comments regarding the Recovery Schedule shall not relieve Contractor of any obligations for performance of the Work, change the Target Substantial Completion Date or Guaranteed Substantial Completion Date or be construed to establish the reasonableness of the Recovery Schedule.

A. If, at any time prior to the Guaranteed Substantial Completion Date, Contractor’s performance of the Work is delayed such that Substantial Completion is projected to achieve Substantial Completion beyond the Guaranteed Substantial Completion Date (as may be adjusted by Change Order) to such an extent that the Delay Liquidated Damages cap in Section 20.2A would apply, and Contractor fails to provide a Recovery Schedule in accordance with this Section 5.5 or Contractor provides a Recovery Schedule but Contractor fails to materially comply with such Recovery Schedule, then Contractor shall be in Default and Owner shall have the right, prior to the Guaranteed Substantial Completion Date, to terminate Contractor’s performance of the Work in accordance with Section 16.1A. If Owner so terminates, Owner shall have all of the rights under Section 16.1 (including recovering all amounts under Section 16.1A), except that in the case of a termination by Owner pursuant to this Section 5.5A solely for Contractor’s failure to provide a Recovery Schedule and materially comply therewith, Contractor’s liability under Section 16.1 arising out of such termination shall be limited to the applicable cap or caps in Section 20.2A and no Performance Liquidated Damages would be owed.

- 48 -

5.6 Acceleration and Acceleration Schedule.

A. Even if the Work is otherwise in compliance with the CPM Schedule, Owner may, at any time, direct Contractor in writing to advance one or both of the Target Substantial Completion Date and Guaranteed Substantial Completion Date; provided, however, such directive shall be reasonable and Contractor shall have agreed in writing that such acceleration is commercially and technically feasible. In the event of such agreement, the directive shall be termed herein a “Confirmed Acceleration Directive” and shall be set forth in a Change Order. In no event shall Owner have the right to issue a unilateral acceleration directive requiring Contractor to achieve Substantial Completion prior to the original Guaranteed Substantial Completion Date specified in this Agreement as of the Contract Date. In the event of a Confirmed Acceleration Directive, Owner shall pay Contractor for the documented costs plus fees attributable to such acceleration and appropriate incentives, if any, shall be mutually agreed upon by the Parties with respect to such early proposed completion and set forth in the Change Order. Such costs may include any shift differential, premium, or overtime payments to workers or field supervisors and other employees of Contractor dedicated to the Work on a full-time basis actually incurred over and above Contractor’s normal rates, and overtime charges for Construction Equipment. Any adjustment to the Contract Price or any other Changed Criteria necessitated by such acceleration of the Work shall be implemented by Change Order. Upon execution of the Change Order, Contractor shall immediately commence and diligently perform the acceleration of the Work, and shall prepare a schedule to explain and display how it intends to accelerate the Work and how that acceleration will affect the critical path of the CPM Schedule (the “Acceleration Schedule”). With respect to the Acceleration Schedule, Contractor shall do the following:

1. No later than the tenth (10th) Business Day after execution of the Change Order with respect to the Confirmed Acceleration Directive, Contractor shall prepare the Acceleration Schedule and submit it to Owner for its review. The Acceleration Schedule shall represent Contractor’s best judgment as to how it shall satisfy the Confirmed Acceleration Directive. The Acceleration Schedule shall be prepared using GECP and to a similar level of detail as the CPM Schedule.

2. On the tenth (10th) Business Day after execution of the Change Order with respect to the Confirmed Acceleration Directive (or such longer time as specified in writing by Owner), Contractor shall participate in a conference with Owner, and with any other Person (including Subcontractors and Sub-subcontractors) whom Owner reasonably designates to participate, to review and evaluate the Acceleration Schedule. Any revisions to the Acceleration Schedule necessary as a result of this review shall be resubmitted for review by Owner as soon as reasonably practicable or as mutually agreed by the Parties. The revised Acceleration Schedule shall then be the schedule which Contractor shall use in planning, organizing, directing, coordinating, performing, and executing that portion of the Work that is affected by such acceleration, with the CPM Schedule governing the performance of all other Work. Owner’s review of the Acceleration Schedule shall not constitute an independent evaluation or determination by Owner of the workability, feasibility, or reasonableness of that schedule.

ARTICLE 6

CHANGES; FORCE MAJEURE; AND OWNER-CAUSED DELAY

6.1 Change Orders Requested by Owner. Until Substantial Completion, Owner shall be entitled to a Change Order upon request in accordance with this Section 6.1.

A. If Owner submits to Contractor in writing a duly signed proposed Change Order, Contractor must respond to Owner, to the extent practicable, within thirty (30) Days with a written statement setting forth the effect, if any, which such proposed Change Order would have on the Contract Price, the Project Schedule, the Design Basis, the Payment Schedule, any of the Minimum Acceptance Criteria, Performance Guarantee or Guarantee Conditions, and/or any other obligation or potential liability of Contractor hereunder (collectively or individually, the “Changed Criteria”). The written statement shall be in the form of Schedule D-3, and shall include, to the extent practicable, all information required by Section 6.5B. Owner shall respond to Contractor’s written statement within fourteen (14) Business Days of receipt, responding to Contractor’s statement as to the effects of the proposed Change Order on the Changed Criteria. If it is not practicable for Contractor to provide all of the information required under this Section 6.1A to be submitted with such written statement within such thirty (30) Day period, Contractor shall provide Owner with as much information as practicable as well as a written explanation of the reason additional time is required. To the extent Contractor incurs costs exceeding Thirty Thousand U.S. Dollars (U.S.$30,000) (which costs shall be adequately documented and supported by Contractor) in responding to any one proposed Change Order, Contractor shall be reimbursed for such excess costs in responding to such Change Order within twenty-five (25) Days after Owner’s receipt of Contractor’s invoice therefor; provided that Contractor first gives Owner written notice of the estimate of the cost of such preparation before preparing the response, such estimate is in excess of Thirty Thousand U.S. Dollars (U.S.$30,000), Owner approves in writing the preparation of the response, and such proposed Change Order is not implemented.

B. If the Parties agree on such Changed Criteria of the proposed Change Order (or modify such proposed Change Order so that the Parties agree on such Changed Criteria), the Parties shall execute such Change Order incorporating the Changed Criteria, which shall be in the form of Schedule D-1, and such Change Order shall become binding on the Parties, as part of this Agreement.

C. If the Parties cannot agree on such Changed Criteria of the proposed Change Order within ten (10) Days of Contractor’s receipt of Owner’s response to Contractor’s written statement, or if Owner desires that the proposed changed Work set forth in the proposed Change Order commence immediately without the requirement of a written statement by Contractor as required under Section 6.1A, Owner may (subject to this Section 6.1C), by issuance of a unilateral Change Order in the form attached hereto as Schedule D-2, require Contractor to commence and perform the changed Work specified in

- 50 -

the unilateral Change Order on a time and material basis as set forth in Schedule D-4 with the effect of such unilateral Change Order on the Changed Criteria (or if the Parties agree on the effect of such unilateral Change Order for some but not all of the Changed Criteria, the impact of each of the components of the Changed Criteria on which the Parties disagree) to be determined as soon as possible but without prejudice to Contractor’s right to refer any Dispute for resolution in accordance with Article 18. The rates specified in Schedule D-4 are “Unit Rates,” and the Unit Rates shall be used to the extent applicable to the changed Work. The Parties acknowledge and agree that unilateral Change Orders submitted by Owner in accordance with this Section 6.1C shall be limited to additions or modifications to, or deductions from the Work and that Owner shall not have the unilateral right to change, amend or modify any of the other Changed Criteria or the terms of this Agreement. Pending resolution of the Dispute, Contractor shall perform the Work as specified in such unilateral Change Order and Owner shall continue to pay Contractor in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and any previously agreed Change Orders. When Owner and Contractor agree on the effect of such unilateral Change Order on all of the Changed Criteria, such agreement shall be recorded by execution by the Parties of a Change Order in the form attached hereto as Schedule D-1, which shall supersede the unilateral Change Order previously issued and relating to such changed Work. With the exception of any Contract Price adjustment contemplated under Attachment EE, in no event shall Owner be entitled to issue any unilateral Change Order in accordance with this Section 6.1C where such unilateral Change Order (i) would result in an increase equal to or exceeding Ten Million U.S. Dollars (U.S.$10,000,000), or (ii) in conjunction with other unilateral Change Orders issued by Owner (other than any Contract Price adjustment contemplated under Attachment EE), would in themselves result in an increase equal to or exceeding an amount equal to Thirty Million U.S. Dollars (U.S.$30,000,000); provided that, with respect to unilateral Change Orders requiring Contractor to conduct or develop engineering studies, Contractor shall not be required to incur costs (a) greater than Thirty Thousand U.S. Dollars (U.S.$30,000) for any single Change Order for engineering studies, or (b) in conjunction with other unilateral Change Orders, greater than Three Hundred Thousand (U.S.$300,000) in the aggregate for engineering studies. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event shall Owner be entitled to issue any unilateral Change Order directing performance of Work under an LNTP. For the avoidance of doubt, the Parties agree that the adjustments contemplated under Attachment EE do not constitute unilateral Change Orders.

D. In the event of a change in any Applicable Code and Standard which does not constitute a Change in Law, Contractor shall provide written notice to Owner regarding such change. Upon receipt of such notice from Contractor, Owner may submit a proposed Change Order to Contractor in accordance with this Section 6.1 in the event Owner, at its sole option, elects for Contractor to implement such change in Applicable Code and Standard. In the event Owner does not, at its sole option, elect for Contractor to implement such change in Applicable Code and Standard, Contractor shall not be required to perform in accordance with such Applicable Code and Standard. In the event, however, that compliance with such Applicable Code and Standard is mandatory for Contractor to comply with GECP and Owner does not, at its sole option, after receipt of written notice from Contractor regarding same, elect for Contractor to implement such change in Applicable Code and Standard, then Owner waives its rights to claim a breach of GECP with respect to such change in Applicable Code and Standard.

8. Suspension in Work ordered by Owner pursuant to Section 16.3;

9. Subsurface Soil Conditions to the extent allowed under Section 2.5B.2;

12. Any Landowner agreement which is executed and provided to Contractor after the Contract Date (including but not limited to such Landowner agreements that are identified in Attachment Y), but only to the extent that such agreement adversely affects (i) Contractor’s costs of performance of the Work, (ii) Contractor’s ability to perform the Work in accordance with the Project Schedule or (iii) Contractor’s ability to perform any material obligation under this Agreement.

B. Should Contractor desire to request a Change Order under this Section 6.2, Contractor shall, pursuant to Section 6.5, notify Owner in writing and issue to Owner, at Contractor’s expense, a request for a proposed Change Order in the form attached hereto as Schedule D-3, a detailed explanation of the proposed change and Contractor’s reasons for proposing the change, documentation necessary to verify the effects of the change on the Changed Criteria, and all other information required by Section 6.5. Any adjustments to the Contract Price shall (unless otherwise agreed) be requested on a fixed price basis and shall be based on the requirements in Schedule D-4 and the Unit Rates specified therein to the extent applicable to the Change Order.

C. Owner shall respond to Contractor’s request for a Change Order within thirty (30) Days of receipt, stating (i) whether Owner agrees that Contractor is entitled to a Change Order and (ii) the extent, if any, to which Owner agrees with Contractor’s statement regarding the effect of the proposed Change Order on the Changed Criteria, including any adjustment to the Contract Price and the estimated costs for each item making up the adjustment to the Contract Price. If Owner agrees that a Change Order is necessary and agrees with Contractor’s statement regarding the effect of the proposed

- 53 -

Change Order on the Changed Criteria, including mutual agreement on the costs, then Owner shall issue such Change Order, which shall be in the form of Schedule D-1, and such Change Order shall become binding on the Parties as part of this Agreement upon execution thereof by the Parties. Owner shall be entitled to decline a Change Order with respect to any request by Contractor for a Change Order if the Change Order request, when submitted, is not adequately documented and supported by Contractor as required under this Agreement.

D. If the Parties agree that Contractor is entitled to a Change Order but cannot agree on the effect of the proposed Change Order on the Changed Criteria within thirty (30) Days of Owner’s receipt of Contractor’s written notice and proposed Change Order and all other required information, or if Owner desires that the proposed changed Work set forth in the proposed Change Order commence immediately, the rights, obligations and procedures set forth in Section 6.1C are applicable.

E. If the Parties cannot agree upon whether Contractor is entitled to a Change Order within thirty (30) Business Days of Owner’s receipt of Contractor’s written notice and proposed Change Order, then the Dispute shall be resolved as provided in Article 18. Pending resolution of the Dispute, Contractor shall continue to perform the Work required under this Agreement, and Owner shall continue to pay Contractor in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, any Change Orders and any previously agreed or unilateral Change Orders.

6.3 Contract Price Adjustment; Contractor Documentation. If a Change Order is executed on a time and material basis pursuant to Section 6.1C or 6.2D, then the Contract Price shall be adjusted as set forth in Schedule D-4. Contractor shall use reasonable efforts to minimize such costs (consistent with the requirements of this Agreement).

6.4 Change Orders Act as Accord and Satisfaction. Unless otherwise expressly stated in the Change Order, Change Orders agreed pursuant to Section 6.1B or 6.2C by the Parties shall constitute a full and final settlement and accord and satisfaction of all effects of the change reflected in the subject Change Order and shall be deemed to compensate Contractor fully for such change. Accordingly, unless otherwise expressly stated in such Change Order, Contractor expressly waives and releases any and all right to make a claim or demand or to take any action or proceeding against Owner for any consequences arising out of, relating to or resulting from such change reflected in the subject Change Order. If Contractor expressly reserves its right in a Change Order to maintain a claim arising out of the change in the Change Order, then Contractor shall provide Owner with notice every ninety (90) Days setting forth the then known impact of the reserved claim in the Change Order.

6.5 Timing Requirements for Notifications and Change Order Requests by Contractor. Should Contractor desire to seek an adjustment to the Contract Price, the Project Schedule, the Payment Schedule, any of the Minimum Acceptance Criteria or Performance Guarantee or any other modification to any other obligation of Contractor under this Agreement for any circumstance that Contractor has reason to believe may give rise to a right to request the issuance of a Change Order, Contractor shall, with respect to each such circumstance:

- 54 -

A. notify Owner in writing of the existence of such circumstance within twenty (20) Days of the date that Contractor knew of the first occurrence or beginning of such circumstance; provided, however, if such circumstance is an emergency, notice shall be given as soon as reasonably practicable. In such notice, Contractor shall state in detail all known and presumed facts upon which its claim is based, including the character, duration and extent of such circumstance, the date Contractor first knew of such circumstance, any activities impacted by such circumstance, a good faith estimate of the cost (which such costs shall be adequately documented and supported by Contractor) and time consequences of such circumstance (including showing a good faith estimate of the impact of such circumstance, if any, on the critical path of the CPM Schedule) and any other details or information that are expressly required under this Agreement. Contractor shall only be required to comply with the notice requirements of this Section 6.5A once for continuing circumstances, provided that the notice expressly states that the circumstance is continuing and includes Contractor’s best estimate of the time and cost consequences of such circumstance; and

B. submit to Owner a request for a Change Order as soon as reasonably practicable after giving Owner written notice but in no event later than forty-five (45) Days after the completion of each such circumstance, together with a written statement with all information currently available (i) detailing why Contractor believes that a Change Order should be issued, plus all documentation reasonably requested by Owner, including information and details expressly required under this Agreement (including the information required by Schedule D-4, applicable detailed estimates and cost records and a graphic demonstration using the CPM Schedule and Monthly Progress Reports showing Contractor’s entitlement to a time extension to the Project Schedule pursuant to the terms of this Agreement); and (ii) setting forth the effect, if any, which such proposed Change Order has or would have for the Work on any of the Changed Criteria. Contractor shall promptly supplement its request for Change Order with additional information as such additional information (if any) becomes available.

If Contractor fails to provide the notice as required under this Section 6.5, and if Owner demonstrates that it has been prejudiced on account of such failure to provide notice, then, to the extent that Owner is so prejudiced, Contractor waives its right for, and releases Owner from and against any claims for, adjustments in the Contract Price, the Project Schedule, Payment Schedule, any Work, any of the Minimum Acceptance Criteria or Performance Guarantee or any other modification to any other obligation of Contractor under this Agreement. Oral notice, shortness of time, or Owner’s actual knowledge of a particular circumstance shall not waive, satisfy, discharge or otherwise excuse Contractor’s strict compliance with this Section 6.5. Contractor shall have the burden of proof with respect to any claim made by it.

6.6 Evidence of Funds. With the exception of any Contract Price adjustment contemplated under Attachment EE, Contractor shall not be obligated to proceed with any Change Order that, alone or in conjunction with other Change Orders, would result in an increase in the Contract Price, as of the Contract Date, in excess of Fifty Million U.S. Dollars (U.S.$50,000,000) and thereafter would result in an increase in the Contract Price in excess of additional Five Million U.S. Dollars (U.S.$5,000,000) increments, unless Owner furnishes, to Contractor’s reasonable satisfaction, documentation which demonstrates either that Owner has (i) sufficient funds to pay for such Change Order, or (ii) obtained financing from one or more Lenders in sufficient funds to pay for such Change Order.

- 55 -

6.7 Adjustment Only Through Change Order. Unless otherwise provided in this Agreement, no change in the requirements of this Agreement, whether an addition to, deletion from, suspension of or modification to this Agreement, including any Work, shall be the basis for an adjustment for any change in the Contract Price, the Project Schedule, Payment Schedule, any Work, any of the Minimum Acceptance Criteria or Performance Guarantee or any other obligations of Contractor or right of Owner under this Agreement unless and until such addition, deletion, suspension or modification has been authorized by a Change Order executed and issued in accordance with and in strict compliance with the requirements of this Section 6.7. Contractor shall not perform any change in the Work unless and until such change is authorized pursuant to this Section 6.7, and should Contractor perform or claim to perform any changes in the Work prior to authorization by Change Order, all such costs and expenses incurred by Contractor shall be for Contractor’s account. No course of conduct or dealings between the Parties, nor implied acceptance of additions, deletions, suspensions or modifications to this Agreement, including any Work, and no claim that Owner has been unjustly enriched by any such addition, deletion, suspension or modification to this Agreement, whether or not there is in fact any such unjust enrichment, shall be the basis for any claim for an adjustment in the Contract Price, the Project Schedule, the Payment Schedule, any Work, any of the Minimum Acceptance Criteria or Performance Guarantee or any other obligations of Contractor under this Agreement.

6.8 Force Majeure.

A. Contractor Relief. If the commencement, prosecution or completion of the Work is prevented or delayed by Force Majeure (including the effects of such Force Majeure), then Contractor shall be entitled to an extension to the Target Substantial Completion Date and/or Guaranteed Substantial Completion Date to the extent, if any, permitted under Section 6.8A.1 and an adjustment to the Contract Price to the extent, if any, permitted under Section 6.8A.2, provided that Contractor has complied with the notice and Change Order requirements in Section 6.5 and the mitigation requirements in Section 6.11. In addition, if Force Majeure (including the effects of such Force Majeure) prevents Contractor’s performance with respect to any portion of the Work, Contractor shall, subject to Section 6.11, be relieved from performance of such portion of the Work for the time period that such Force Majeure, or the effects of such Force Majeure, are continuing. All time extensions to the Project Schedule and adjustments to the Contract Price for such delays or preventions shall be by Change Order implemented and documented as required under this Article 6.

1. Time Extension. Contractor shall be entitled to an extension to the Target Substantial Completion Date and/or Guaranteed Substantial Completion Date for delay or prevention that meets the requirements of this Section 6.8A, if and to the extent such delay or prevention causes a delay in the critical path of the Work. Contractor shall demonstrate to Owner its entitlement to relief under this Section by providing to Owner an updated CPM Schedule using Primavera Project Planner in its native electronic format with actual durations entered for all activities

- 56 -

on the critical path and re-forecasted clearly to indicate Contractor’s entitlement to a time extension under this Section 6.8A. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any adjustment to the Target Substantial Completion Date shall extend the Guaranteed Substantial Completion Date in the same amounts so that the Guaranteed Substantial Completion Date is always ninety two (92) Days after the Target Substantial Completion Date, regardless of whether the delay impacts only the critical path of the Work to achieve the Target Substantial Completion Date and not the Guaranteed Substantial Completion Date.

2. Compensation. Contractor shall be entitled to an adjustment to the Contract Price for any delay or prevention that meets the requirements of this Section 6.8A, if such delay or prevention, alone or in conjunction with other Force Majeure Events, continues for a period of at least thirty (30) Days, in the aggregate. Any such Contract Price adjustment shall be for reasonable costs necessarily incurred by Contractor for delay or prevention occurring after the expiration of such thirty (30) Day period; provided that Owner’s total liability under this Agreement for any such Contract Price adjustment(s) for all such events occurring during the term of this Agreement shall not exceed Fifty Million U.S. Dollars (U.S.$50,000,000) in the aggregate.

B. Owner Relief. Subject to Section 6.8C, Owner’s obligations under this Agreement shall be suspended to the extent that performance of such obligations is delayed or prevented by Force Majeure, but without prejudice to Contractor’s entitlement to a Change Order to the extent set forth in Section 6.2A.

C. Payment Obligations. No obligation of a Party to pay moneys under or pursuant to this Agreement shall be excused by reason of Force Majeure.

6.9 Extensions of Time and Adjustment of Compensation. With respect to any of the circumstances set forth in Section 6.2A which cause delay of the commencement, prosecution or completion of the Work for which Contractor is entitled to a Change Order (with the exception of delay resulting from an event of Force Majeure, which shall be governed in accordance with Section 6.8), Contractor shall be entitled to an extension to the Target Substantial Completion Date and Guaranteed Substantial Completion Date if and to the extent: (i) such delay causes a delay in the critical path of the Work; (ii) Contractor has complied with the notice and Change Order requirements in Section 6.5 and the mitigation requirements of Section 6.11; and (iii) such delay is not attributable to Contractor or any of its Subcontractors or Sub-subcontractors. Contractor shall demonstrate to Owner its entitlement to relief under this Section by providing to Owner an updated CPM Schedule using Primavera Project Planner in its native electronic format with actual durations entered for all activities on the critical path and re-forecasted clearly to indicate Contractor’s entitlement to a time extension under this Section 6.9. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any adjustment to the Target Substantial Completion Date shall extend the Guaranteed Substantial Completion Date in the same amounts so that the Guaranteed Substantial Completion Date is always ninety two (92) Days after the Target Substantial Completion Date, regardless of whether the delay impacts only the critical path of the Work to achieve the Target Substantial Completion Date and not the Guaranteed Substantial Completion Date. Contractor shall be entitled to an adjustment to the Contract Price for reasonable, additional costs incurred by

- 57 -

Contractor for delay or in mitigation or avoidance of a delay which would otherwise meet such requirements of this Section 6.9. For the avoidance of doubt, this Section 6.9 shall govern the determination of any right of Contractor to an adjustment to the Target Substantial Completion Date and Guaranteed Substantial Completion Date for delay unless such delay is caused by Force Majeure.

6.10 Delay. For the purposes of this Agreement, the term “delay” shall include hindrances, disruptions or obstructions, or any other similar term in the industry and the resulting impact from such hindrances, disruptions or obstructions, including inefficiency, impact, ripple or lost production.

6.11 Contractor Obligation to Mitigate Delay. Contractor shall not be entitled to any adjustment to the Project Schedule or adjustment to the Contract Price for any portion of delay to the extent Contractor could have taken, but failed to take, reasonable actions to mitigate such delay.

6.12 Separated Contract Price Adjustments in Change Orders. Any adjustment by Change Order to the Contract Price shall be made on a fixed price separated basis as provided in 34 Tex. Admin. Code Section 3.291(a)(13) to specify the applicable adjustments to the Aggregate Equipment Price and Aggregate Labor and Skills Price in accordance with Article 7.

ARTICLE 7

The scope and values of each Provisional Sum comprising the Aggregate Provisional Sum amount are included in Attachment EE, together with the breakdown between the Aggregate Equipment Prices and all other Work.

7.2 Interim Payments.

A. Mobilization Payment. On or before and as a condition precedent to the issuance of the Notice to Proceed in accordance with Section 5.2B and upon Owner’s receipt of an Invoice from Contractor, Owner shall pay Contractor a fixed amount equal to fifteen percent (15%) of the Contract Price (the “Mobilization Payment”).

1. The Mobilization Payment is separated as follows:

a. *** U.S. Dollars (U.S.$***) for those components of the Aggregate Equipment Price contained in the Mobilization Payment; and,

b. *** U.S. Dollars (U.S.$***) for those components of the Aggregate Labor and Skills Price contained in the Mobilization Payment.

B. Payments. Subject to Section 5.2A, with the exception of the Mobilization Payment, payments shall be made by Owner to Contractor in accordance with the Payment Schedule set forth in Attachment C (as may be amended by Change Order), which allocates (i) seventy percent (70%) of the Aggregate Labor and Skills Price to be paid based on completion of the Milestones set forth in Attachment C, Schedule C-1, (ii) thirty percent (30%) of the Aggregate Labor and Skills Price to be paid based on the Monthly payments set forth in Attachment C, Schedule C-2 (the “Monthly Payments”), as adjusted pursuant to Section 7.2F; and (iii) one hundred percent (100%) of the Aggregate Equipment Price to be paid based on completion of the Milestones set forth in Attachment C, Schedule C-3. Owner shall also make payments to Contractor for Work performed in accordance with Change Orders to be paid on a time and material basis and any unilateral Change Orders issued in accordance with Section 6.1C or 6.2D. Each payment shall be subject to Owner’s right to withhold payments under this Agreement as set forth in Section 7.5 and Section 20.3. Payments shall be made in U.S. Dollars to an account designated by Contractor. The Payment Schedule, including Milestones and Monthly Payments, shall be amended only by Change Order pursuant to this Agreement.

- 59 -

C. Invoices. On the first (1st) Day of each Month (“Month N”), Contractor shall submit to Owner an Invoice, supported by information and documentation required under this Agreement, for the following:

1. amounts for Milestones Contractor plans to fully complete during the next Month (“Month N+1”), as supported by the sixty (60) Day look-ahead schedule submitted with such Invoice. Contractor shall not include any amounts for any Milestones that will only be partially completed at the end of Month N+1;

2. plus the Monthly Payment for Month N+1;

3. plus (i) allowable costs and expenses Contractor plans to incur during Month N+1 for Work performed in accordance with Change Orders to be paid on a time and material basis, and (ii) allowable costs and expenses Contractor plans to incur during Month N+1 for Work covered by a Provisional Sum, all as supported by the sixty (60) Day look-ahead schedule and other information required herein;

4. less amounts for any Milestones Invoiced in Month N-2 that Contractor did not complete during Month N-1; and

5. less amounts Invoiced in Month N-3 for (i) time and material Change Orders, and (ii) Provisional Sums that Contractor did not incur in Month N-2.

If Owner pays Contractor for the completion of a Milestone in Month N+1, but Contractor does not complete such Milestone during such Month N+1, and Owner exercises its right to withhold payment in accordance with Section 7.2 for such uncompleted Milestone, Contractor shall not be entitled to Invoice for the amount withheld by Owner for such Milestone until the Month after Contractor completes such Milestone.

Contractor shall include with such Invoice a sixty (60) Day look-ahead schedule, prepared by Contractor, for such Month N and Month N+1 that shows, among other requirements, Contractor’s schedule for (i) completing such Milestones in Month N+1 and (ii) incurring such allowable costs and expenses for time and materials Change Orders and Provisional Sums during such Month N+1. All Invoices issued to Owner hereunder shall separately state charges for the Aggregate Equipment Price and the Aggregate Labor and Skills Price. All Invoices, other than the Invoice for final payment under this Agreement, shall be in the form of Schedule I-1.

D. Interim Lien Waivers. As a condition of payment, each Invoice received by Owner prior to Final Completion shall be accompanied by a fully executed (i) Interim Conditional Lien Waiver from Contractor in the form of Schedule K-1 for all Work performed through the end of the Month preceding the Month of the date of the Invoice (i.e., Month N-1) and (ii) Interim Unconditional Lien Waiver from Contractor in the form

- 60 -

of Schedule K-2 for all Work performed through the end of the Month preceding the Month of the date of the last Invoice submitted by Contractor of the Invoice (i.e., Month N-2). In addition, as a condition of payment, Contractor shall also provide, subject to Section 7.2D.1, (i) fully executed Interim Conditional Lien Waivers in the form of Schedule K-3 from each Lien Waiver Subcontractor whose invoice is received by Contractor in the Month covered by Contractor’s Invoice (with each such Interim Conditional Lien Waiver covering all Work performed by each such Lien Waiver Subcontractor through the end of the Month preceding the Month of the date of such Lien Waiver Subcontractor’s invoice (i.e., Month N-1)), together with fully executed Interim Unconditional Lien Waivers from each Lien Waiver Subcontractor for all Work performed by such Lien Waiver Subcontractor through the end of the Month preceding the Month of the date of each such Lien Waiver Subcontractor’s preceding invoice (i.e., Month N-2); (ii) fully executed Interim Conditional Lien Waivers in substantially the form of Schedule K-3 from each Major Sub-subcontractor whose invoice is received by Contractor in the Month covered by Contractor’s Invoice (with each such Interim Conditional Lien Waiver covering all Work performed by each such Major Sub-subcontractor through the end of the Month preceding the Month of the date of such Major Sub-subcontractor’s invoice (i.e., Month N-1)), together with fully executed Interim Unconditional Lien Waivers from each Major Sub-subcontractor in substantially the form set forth in Schedule K-4 for all Work performed by such Major Sub-subcontractor through the end of the Month preceding the Month of the date of each such Major Sub-subcontractor’s preceding invoice (i.e., Month N-2); provided that if Contractor fails to provide to Owner an Interim Conditional Lien Waiver or Interim Unconditional Lien Waiver from a Lien Waiver Subcontractor or Major Sub-subcontractor as required in this Section 7.2D, Owner’s right to withhold payment for the failure to provide any such Interim Conditional Lien Waiver or Interim Unconditional Lien Waiver shall be limited to the amount that should have been reflected in such Interim Conditional Lien Waiver or Interim Unconditional Lien Waiver; provided further, if Contractor fails to provide an Interim Unconditional Lien Waiver from a Lien Waiver Subcontractor or Major Sub-subcontractor but Contractor provides evidence to Owner that such Subcontractor or Sub-subcontractor has been paid (as shown in a check that has been properly endorsed and has been paid by the bank on which it is drawn, or evidence the wire transfer payment is received by such Subcontractor or Sub-subcontractor), then Owner shall not withhold payment of such amount. In addition, if and to the extent that Contractor obtains any lien or claim waivers from any Subcontractors or Sub-subcontractors which are not a Lien Waiver Subcontractor or Major Sub-subcontractor, Contractor shall provide to Owner such lien or claim waivers with the next Invoice following Contractor’s receipt of each such lien or claim waiver. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 7.2D and Section 7.2D.1, Contractor shall not be required to deliver a Contractor’s Interim Unconditional Lien Waiver until Owner has paid the amounts requested in the applicable Invoice for which such Contractor’s Interim Unconditional Lien Waiver relates.

1. For Bulk Order Subcontractors only, as a condition of payment, every third (3^rd) Invoice received by Owner prior to Final Completion shall be accompanied by fully executed Interim Unconditional Lien Waivers from each Bulk Order Subcontractor in substantially the form set forth in Schedule K-4 for all Work performed by such Bulk Order Subcontractor through the end of the period ending three (3) Months prior to such Invoice (i.e. Month N-3); provided that if

- 61 -

Contractor fails to provide to Owner an Interim Unconditional Lien Waiver from a Bulk Order Subcontractor as required in this Section 7.2D.1, Owner’s right to withhold payment for the failure to provide such Interim Unconditional Lien Waiver shall be limited to the amount that should have been reflected in such Interim Unconditional Lien Waiver; provided further, if Contractor fails to provide an Interim Unconditional Lien Waiver from a Bulk Order Subcontractor but Contractor provides an Interim Conditional Lien Waiver (in substantially the form set forth in Schedule K-3 for all Work performed by such Bulk Order Subcontractor) and evidence to Owner that such Subcontractor has been paid (as shown in a check that has been properly endorsed and has been paid by the bank on which it is drawn, or evidence the wire transfer payment is received by such Subcontractor), then Owner shall not withhold payment of such amount. Except as provided in the preceding sentence, Bulk Order Subcontractors are not required to provide Interim Conditional Lien Waivers. For the purposes of Interim Conditional Lien Waivers and Interim Unconditional Lien Waivers, Bulk Order Subcontractors shall not be considered a Lien Waiver Subcontractor.

E. Review and Payment. Each Invoice shall be reviewed by Owner and, upon Owner’s reasonable request, Contractor shall furnish such supporting documentation and certificates and provide such further information as may be reasonably requested by Owner. Within thirty (30) Days after receipt of any Invoice, Owner shall provide notice to Contractor of any disputed amount set forth in such Invoice, including an explanation of why such amount is disputed. Unless so disputed by Owner, each Invoice (less any withholdings allowed under this Agreement) shall be due and paid no later than thirty (30) Days after it, and all applicable documentation required under this Agreement, including Attachment I, is received by Owner. If an Invoice is disputed by Owner, then payment shall be made within the thirty (30) Day period for all undisputed amounts and the dispute shall be resolved pursuant to Article 18.

- 69 -

Such increase in the Letter of Credit shall be reflected in a Change Order mutually agreed upon by the Parties.

9.3 DSU Insurance.

A. If an event or events occur that may be covered by the Builder’s Risk Delayed Startup Insurance or Marine Cargo Delayed Startup Insurance described in Attachment O, it shall be Owner’s sole option to decide whether or not a claim under such Delayed Startup Insurance is filed. If Owner gives notice to Contractor to file a claim under such Delayed Startup Insurance, Contractor shall promptly file and diligently pursue the collection of such claim on behalf of Owner, and in such case Owner shall provide to Contractor such information and assistance reasonably required for Contractor to file and pursue such claim. Contractor shall not be relieved of any Delay Liquidated Damages owed by Contractor to Owner if Owner does not elect to file a claim on such Delayed Startup Insurance, if Owner does not provide the information or assistance referenced above, or the prosecution of such claim is unsuccessful.

B. Regardless whether an event or events occur that may be covered by such Delayed Startup Insurance, Contractor shall pay any Delay Liquidated Damages owed by Contractor to Owner within the time required in Section 20.3C, even if a claim has been asserted under such Delayed Startup Insurance.

If any such Delay Liquidated Damages are paid back to Contractor, the amount of such Delay Liquidated Damages paid back to Contractor shall not be counted against the cap on Delay Liquidated Damages in Section 20.2.

4. If Contractor achieves RFSU during the period specified in the second notice issued in accordance with Section 11.1A.1, Owner shall provide the FERC Authorization for Commissioning within seven (7) Days after the date that RFSU is achieved. In the event Owner fails to provide the FERC Authorization for Commissioning within the period specified in the preceding sentence, Contractor shall be entitled to a Change Order to the extent allowed under Section 6.9 of the Agreement.

B. Notice of Delivery of Feed Gas for Commissioning, Start Up and Performance Testing. Contractor shall provide to Owner a schedule of the quantities of Commissioning Feed Gas, in MMBtu, that Contractor anticipates it will need for Subproject 3 in accordance with the following Commissioning Feed Gas forward plan:

1. No later than the twentieth (20^th) Day of the Month occurring three (3) Months prior to the Month Contractor first needs Commissioning Feed Gas, Contractor shall give written notice to Owner of the total quantity of Commissioning Feed Gas required for the Month Commissioning Feed Gas is first needed and for each of the following two (2) Months (e.g., if the Contractor’s first need of Commissioning Feed Gas is anticipated to be in June, Contractor shall give written notice to Owner by March 20^th of the anticipated total quantity of Commissioning Feed Gas required in the Months of June, July and August).

2. No later than the twentieth (20^th) Day of the Month occurring two (2) Months prior to the Month Contractor first needs Commissioning Feed Gas, Contractor shall give written notice to Owner of (i) the quantities of Commissioning Feed Gas for each twenty-four (24) hour period between the hours of 9:00 AM of one Day to 9:00 AM the next Day, (“Daily Quantities”) for the Month Commissioning Feed Gas is first needed and (ii) any revisions to the total Month’s quantities required for each of the following two (2) Months (e.g., if the Contractor’s first need of Commissioning Feed Gas is anticipated to be in June, Contractor shall give notice to Owner by April 20^th of the Daily Quantities for June, and revisions, if any, to the total quantity of Commissioning Feed Gas required in the Months of July and August).

3. No later than the twentieth (20^th) Day of the Month prior to the Month Contractor first needs Commissioning Feed Gas and no later than the twentieth (20^th) Day of each following Month, Contractor shall give written notice to Owner of the Daily Quantities for the next three (3) Months.

4. During each Month that Contractor requires Commissioning Feed Gas, Contractor will give Owner written notice of Daily Quantities as follows: (i) every Thursday by 5:00 PM of the Daily Quantities Contractor anticipates requiring for each Day between and including the following Tuesday through Monday, and (ii) every Day by 3:00 PM of the Daily Quantity for the next two (2) Days.

- 74 -

5. In the event that Contractor at any time becomes aware or has reason to believe that Contractor will require materially less than the previously noticed Daily Quantity for that Day, Contractor shall immediately give Owner written notice of such fact and of the revised Daily Quantity.

6. If, following the twentieth (20^th) day of each Month, Contractor’s need for Daily Quantities changes materially from the previously noticed Daily Quantities, then Owner shall use commercially reasonable efforts to reschedule the delivery of the Commissioning Feed Gas so as to accommodate the revised Daily Quantities notified by Contractor in writing. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any failure by Owner to supply Commissioning Feed Gas at such time as such Feed Gas is needed in accordance with the periods set forth in the notices delivered during the Month prior to such need, shall entitle Contractor to a Change Order, provided that Contractor complies with the requirements set forth in Sections 6.2, 6.5 and 6.9.

C. Notice of Scheduling of LNG Production Requirement. Contractor shall provide to Owner a schedule of the quantities of LNG Contractor expects to produce from the Commissioning Feed Gas (“Commissioning LNG”) in accordance with the following Commissioning LNG forward plan:

4. If, following the twentieth (20th) Day of each Month, Contractor’s daily plan for Commissioning LNG production changes materially from the previously noticed daily plan, then Owner shall use commercially reasonable efforts to provide storage for the Commissioning LNG to accommodate the revised plan for Commissioning LNG production as notified by Contractor in writing.

- 75 -

D. Notice of Ready for Ship Loading Time Test. Without limitation of the foregoing or any other scheduling requirements contained in this Agreement, Contractor shall give Owner one hundred twenty (120) Days’ prior written notice of the date on which Contractor expects to be ready for the Ship Loading Time Test. Contractor shall give Owner a second written notice specifying the date on which Contractor expects to be ready for the Ship Loading Time Test, which such notices shall be given no later than sixty (60) Days prior to such date. Owner shall provide for an LNG Tanker after the date in such second written notice; provided that Owner is not required to schedule such LNG Tanker until (i) there is sufficient LNG in storage in the Tanks to perform the Ship Loading Time Test and (ii) Owner has an economic reason to export such LNG. Owner shall give Contractor fourteen (14) Days prior written notice of a five (5) Day period in which the LNG Tanker will be available for the Ship Loading Time Test. In the event that Contractor at any time becomes aware or has reason to believe that its ability to be ready for the Ship Loading Time Test will be delayed beyond the last date specified in the second written notice given pursuant to this Section 11.1D or the date(s) specified in Owner’s notice of LNG Tanker availability, Contractor shall immediately give Owner written notice of such fact and of the revised date on which Contractor then expects that it will be ready for the Ship Loading Time Test. Owner shall use commercially reasonable efforts to reschedule the arrival of the LNG Tanker for the Ship Loading Time Test. If the LNG Tanker is not provided within thirty (30) Days after the date requested in Contractor’s second notice, Contractor shall be entitled to a Change Order to the extent permitted under Section 6.9.

11.2 Notice and Requirements for Substantial Completion. Contractor shall give Owner not less than ninety (90) Days’ prior written notice of its intention to commence the Performance Tests, and, on the sixtieth (60th) Day and thirtieth (30th) Day immediately prior to Contractor’s intention to commence such testing activities, Contractor shall provide written notices to Owner. The Parties shall, no later than twenty-four (24) months after Owner’s issuance of the Notice to Proceed, mutually agree upon final test procedures for the conduct of the Performance Tests as specified in and consistent with Attachment S (these test procedures and the test parameters specified in Attachment S hereinafter referred to as “Performance Test Procedures”). Contractor shall provide all labor, equipment, supplies, and all other items necessary for the conduct of the Performance Tests; provided, however, that Owner shall provide operating personnel for supervision by Contractor in accordance with Section 4.4 and the Commissioning Feed Gas in accordance with Section 11.1B. Contractor shall analyze the data obtained during all Performance Tests, and ensure that such data reflects the performance standards required hereunder. A complete copy of all raw performance data and a detailed listing of all testing instrumentation utilized shall be provided to Owner at the completion of testing. Upon achieving all requirements under this Agreement for Substantial Completion, Contractor shall certify to Owner in the form of Attachment M (“Substantial Completion Certificate”) that all of the requirements under this Agreement for Substantial Completion have occurred and shall provide with such Substantial Completion Certificate a Performance Test report and analysis to Owner. At a minimum, the Performance Test report shall include (i) the raw data, (ii) the instrumentation utilized for the Performance Tests, (iii) the procedures utilized during the Performance Tests, (iv) calculations and information, and a full explanation concerning same, for

- 76 -

adjustments to the Guarantee Conditions, as and to the extent specified in the Performance Test Procedures, and (v) any other reasonable supporting information used to demonstrate that the Work has met the Minimum Acceptance Criteria or Performance Guarantee, as the case may be. The Substantial Completion Certificate shall be accompanied by all other supporting documentation as may be reasonably required to establish that the requirements for Substantial Completion have been met.

11.3 Owner Acceptance of RFSU and Substantial Completion.

A. Owner Acceptance of RFSU. Owner shall notify Contractor whether it accepts or rejects the RFSU Completion Certificate within seventy-two (72) hours following Owner’s receipt thereof. All Work shall continue during pendency of Owner’s review. Acceptance of RFSU (which such acceptance shall not be unreasonably withheld) shall be evidenced by Owner’s signature on such RFSU Completion Certificate. The date of RFSU shall be based upon, and the date of Owner’s acceptance of RFSU shall be deemed to have occurred on, the date listed on the RFSU Completion Certificate; provided that all requirements under this Agreement for RFSU were achieved on such date listed on the RFSU Completion Certificate except for the payment of any and all Liquidated Damages due and owing to Owner and provided further that the payment to Owner of such Liquidated Damages shall have been made within the time and in accordance with Section 20.3C in order for RFSU to have occurred on the date listed in the RFSU Completion Certificate. If Owner does not agree that RFSU has occurred, then Owner shall state the basis for its rejection in reasonable detail in such notice. If the Parties do not mutually agree on when and if RFSU has occurred, the Parties shall thereupon promptly and in good faith confer and make all reasonable efforts to resolve such issue. In the event such issue is not resolved within forty-eight (48) hours of the delivery by Owner of its notice to Contractor, the Parties shall resolve such dispute in accordance with Section 18.1A. Owner’s acceptance of RFSU shall not relieve Contractor of any of its obligations to perform the Work in accordance with the requirements of this Agreement. As used in this Section 11.3A, “unreasonably withheld” means that Owner fails to accept the RFSU Completion Certificate even if all of the requirements under this Agreement for the achievement of RFSU have been achieved. For the avoidance of doubt, “unreasonably withheld,” as used in this Section 11.3A, means that Owner cannot fail to accept the RFSU Completion Certificate if all the requirements under this Agreement for the achievement of RFSU have been achieved.

B. Owner Acceptance of Substantial Completion. Owner shall notify Contractor whether it accepts or rejects the Substantial Completion Certificate within ten (10) Days following Owner’s receipt thereof. All Work shall continue during pendency of Owner’s review. Acceptance of Substantial Completion (which such acceptance shall not be unreasonably withheld) shall be evidenced by Owner’s signature on such Substantial Completion Certificate. The date of Substantial Completion shall be based upon, and the date of Owner’s acceptance of Substantial Completion shall be deemed to have occurred on, the date listed on the Substantial Completion Certificate, provided that all requirements under this Agreement for Substantial Completion were achieved on such date listed on the Substantial Completion Certificate except for the payment of any and all Liquidated Damages due and owing to Owner and provided further that the payment to Owner of such

- 77 -

Liquidated Damages shall have been made within the time and in accordance with Section 20.3C in order for Substantial Completion to have occurred on the date listed in the Substantial Completion Certificate. If Owner does not agree that Substantial Completion has occurred, then Owner shall state the basis for its rejection in reasonable detail in such notice. If the Parties do not mutually agree on when and if Substantial Completion has occurred, the Parties shall thereupon promptly and in good faith confer and make all reasonable efforts to resolve such issue. In the event such issue is not resolved within ten (10) Days of the delivery by Owner of its notice to Contractor, the Parties shall resolve such dispute in accordance with Section 18.1A. Owner’s acceptance of Substantial Completion shall not relieve Contractor of any of its obligations to perform the Work in accordance with the requirements of this Agreement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section, Owner shall not be required to accept a Substantial Completion Certificate if the requirements under this Agreement for the achievement of Substantial Completion have not been achieved. As used in this Section 11.3B, “unreasonably withheld” means that Owner fails to accept a Substantial Completion Certificate even if all of the requirements under this Agreement for the achievement of Substantial Completion have been achieved. For the avoidance of doubt, “unreasonably withheld,” as used in this Section 11.3B, means that Owner cannot fail to accept the Substantial Completion Certificate if all the requirements under this Agreement for the achievement of Substantial Completion have been achieved.

11.4 Minimum Acceptance Criteria and Performance Liquidated Damages.

A. Minimum Acceptance Criteria Achieved. In the event that Subproject 3 fails to achieve the Performance Guarantee by the Guaranteed Substantial Completion Date, as evidenced by the Performance Test results, but meets the Minimum Acceptance Criteria and all other requirements for Substantial Completion, then Contractor shall have the right, upon written notice to Owner, to elect one of the following options; provided, however, if the Performance Tests results evidence that the LNG Production Rate does not exceed ninety eight percent (98%) of the Performance Guarantee, then Owner shall have the right, upon written notice, to elect and direct Contractor, within thirty (30) Days after receipt of a notice from Contractor specifying the Performance Test results and requesting Owner’s election to proceed with one of the following options:

(i) Contractor shall transfer care, custody and control of Subproject 3 to Owner. Upon such transfer and satisfaction of all other requirements of Substantial Completion, Substantial Completion shall be achieved, and Owner shall sign the Substantial Completion Certificate submitted by Contractor. Contractor shall only be responsible for the payment of Delay Liquidated Damages owing up to the date of Substantial Completion, which shall be paid in accordance with Section 20.3C. Contractor shall pay, as a condition of Substantial Completion, Performance Liquidated Damages to Owner in accordance with Section 20.3C based on the results of the last Performance Test conducted by Contractor prior to issuance of a notice of election by Owner or Contractor pursuant to this Section 11.4; or

- 78 -

(ii) Contractor shall transfer care, custody and control of Subproject 3 to Owner and take corrective actions to achieve such Performance Guarantee. Upon such transfer and satisfaction of all other requirements of Substantial Completion, Substantial Completion shall be achieved, and Owner shall sign the Substantial Completion Certificate submitted by Contractor. Contractor shall only be responsible for the payment of Delay Liquidated Damages owing up to the date of Substantial Completion, which shall be paid in accordance with Section 20.3C. The correction actions required to be performed by Contractor shall be performed in accordance with Owner’s operation and maintenance schedule so as to not interfere with operation of Subproject 3 and subject to any security or safety requirements. For the period of time that Contractor is taking corrective action to achieve the Performance Guarantee(s) pursuant to this Section 11.4A(ii), Owner shall provide safe, reasonable access to Contractor for performance of such corrective actions, but at all times performing such Work so as not to interfere with the operation of Subproject 3. Prior to the election of the option under this Section 11.4A(ii), Contractor shall deliver to Owner a detailed corrective action plan and schedule to achieve the Performance Guarantee. If Subproject 3 has not achieved the Performance Guarantee within one hundred and eighty (180) Days after the Guaranteed Substantial Completion Date (or such later date as may be mutually agreed in writing), then Contractor shall cease taking corrective actions to achieve the Performance Guarantee, and in that event, Contractor shall pay to Owner the applicable Performance Liquidated Damages for such Performance Guarantee in accordance with Section 20.3C based on the results of the last Performance Test conducted by Contractor. On the other hand, if such Performance Guarantee is achieved within the prescribed period, Contractor shall owe no Performance Liquidated Damages for Subproject 3. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that the Owner directed Contractor or Contractor elected to proceed with the option under this Section 11.4A(ii) and Contractor achieves an LNG Production Rate that exceeds ninety eight percent (98%) of the Performance Guarantee, Contractor shall have the right to cease taking corrective actions to achieve the Performance Guarantee, and Contractor shall pay to Owner the applicable Performance Liquidated Damages for such Performance Guarantee in accordance with Section 20.3C based on the results of the last Performance Test conducted by Contractor.

B. Minimum Acceptance Criteria Not Achieved. In the event that Subproject 3 fails to achieve the Minimum Acceptance Criteria, as evidenced by the Performance Test results, by the Guaranteed Substantial Completion Date, as such date may be extended by Change Order as provided herein, then (i) Substantial Completion shall not occur and (ii) the provisions of Section 13.1 shall apply. In addition to the foregoing, Contractor shall attempt for a period of ten (10) months after the Guaranteed Substantial Completion Date (“Minimum Acceptance Criteria Correction Period”) to correct the Work to enable Subproject 3 to achieve the Minimum Acceptance Criteria and otherwise achieve Substantial Completion. If Subproject 3 has not achieved the Minimum Acceptance Criteria and Substantial Completion upon the termination of the Minimum Acceptance Criteria Correction Period, then Owner shall have, in its sole discretion, the option of either (a) granting Contractor up to an additional ten (10) month Minimum Acceptance Criteria Correction Period under the same terms and conditions as the first, including the application of Section 13.1 (subject to Section 20.2A); or (b) declaring Contractor Default pursuant to Article 16, in which case Owner shall be entitled to immediately (and without

- 79 -

any cure period allowed) terminate Contractor’s performance of the Work in accordance with Section 16.1A, and Owner shall have all of the rights under Section 16.1, including all Delay Liquidated Damages owed but subject to Section 20.2A, provided that Owner shall not be entitled to any Performance Liquidated Damages for a termination under this Section 11.4B with respect to Subproject 3. If, on the other hand, Subproject 3 has achieved the Minimum Acceptance Criteria and Substantial Completion during the Minimum Acceptance Criteria Correction Period (or during the second ten (10) month period, should Owner elect that option), then Contractor shall be liable to Owner for Delay Liquidated Damages up to the date of Substantial Completion of Subproject 3 (subject to Section 20.2A) and all Performance Liquidated Damages owed (subject to Section 20.2B).

11.5 Punchlist. Upon completion of the Performance Tests and prior to Substantial Completion, Owner and Contractor shall inspect Subproject 3, and Contractor shall prepare a proposed Punchlist of items identified as needing to be completed or corrected as a result of such inspection. Contractor shall promptly provide the proposed Punchlist to Owner for its review, together with an estimate of the time and cost necessary to complete or correct each Punchlist item. Contractor shall add to the proposed Punchlist any Punchlist items that are identified by Owner within ten (10) Days after Owner’s receipt of the proposed Punchlist from Contractor, and Contractor shall immediately initiate measures to complete or correct, as appropriate, any item on Contractor’s proposed Punchlist (including those items identified by Owner during Owner’s review) that are not of a Punchlist nature. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, Contractor and Owner are not required as a condition of Substantial Completion to agree upon and identify every Punchlist item and include it on the Punchlist, but Contractor is required to complete as a condition of Substantial Completion all Work that does not meet the definition of Punchlist as provided in Section 1.1. In the event of a dispute regarding whether a specific item of Work meets the definition of Punchlist under Section 1.1, the Parties shall resolve such dispute in accordance with Section 18.1A. Owner shall provide Contractor with access to the Work after Substantial Completion sufficient to enable Contractor to complete all Punchlist items, so long as such access does not unreasonably interfere with operation of Subproject 3 after Substantial Completion or Subproject 1 or Subproject 2 after substantial completion of Subproject 1 or Subproject 2 (as applicable) under the Stage 1 EPC Agreement and subject to any reasonable security or safety requirements of Owner. Upon Contractor’s completion or correction of any items necessary to achieve Substantial Completion, as modified by any Owner additions, such Punchlist shall govern Contractor’s performance of the Punchlist items up to Final Completion. All Work on the Punchlist shall be completed by the date required for Final Completion, as specified in Section 5.3C, or Owner may, in addition to any other rights that it may have under this Agreement, complete such Punchlist Work at the expense of Contractor. In the event Owner elects to complete such Punchlist Work, Contractor shall pay Owner, within ten (10) Days after receipt of written notice from Owner, all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by Owner in performing such Punchlist Work, or, at Owner’s sole discretion, Owner may withhold or offset amounts owed to Contractor or collect on the Letter of Credit in accordance with Section 7.8 in the amount of such costs and expenses. Any Defective Work identified after agreement between the Parties of the Punchlist shall be corrected by Contractor as a Warranty item under Article 12.

11.6 Notice and Requirements for Final Completion. Final Completion shall be achieved when all requirements for Final Completion set forth in the definition of Final Completion under Section 1.1 have been satisfied. Upon Final Completion, Contractor shall

- 80 -

certify to Owner in the form of Attachment N (“Final Completion Certificate”) that all of such requirements have occurred. Owner shall notify Contractor whether it accepts or rejects the Final Completion Certificate within ten (10) Days following Owner’s receipt thereof. Acceptance of Final Completion (which such acceptance shall not be unreasonably withheld) shall be evidenced by Owner’s signature on such certificate, which shall be forwarded to Contractor with such notice. The date of Final Completion shall be based upon, and the date of Owner’s acceptance of Final Completion shall be deemed to have occurred on, the date listed on the Final Completion Certificate; provided that all requirements under this Agreement for Final Completion were achieved on such date listed on the Final Completion Certificate. If Owner does not agree that Final Completion has occurred, then Owner shall state the basis for its rejection in such notice. If the Parties do not mutually agree on when and if Final Completion has occurred, the Parties shall thereupon promptly and in good faith confer and make all reasonable efforts to resolve such issue. In the event such issue is not resolved within ten (10) Days of the delivery by Owner of its notice, the Parties shall resolve such dispute in accordance with Section 18.1A. Owner’s acceptance of Final Completion shall not relieve Contractor of any of its remaining obligations in accordance with the requirements of this Agreement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section, Owner shall not be required to accept the Final Completion Certificate if the requirements under this Agreement for the achievement of Final Completion have not been achieved. As used in this Section 11.6, “unreasonably withheld” means that Owner fails to accept the Final Completion Certificate even if all of the requirements under this Agreement for the achievement of Final Completion have been achieved. For the avoidance of doubt, “unreasonably withheld,” as used in this Section 11.6, means that Owner cannot fail to accept the Final Completion Certificate if all the requirements under this Agreement for the achievement of Final Completion have been achieved.

11.7 Operations Activities.

A. Operation by Contractor. Prior to Substantial Completion and after RFSU, to the extent Contractor has care, custody and control of the Stage 2 Liquefaction Facility, Contractor shall, to the extent reasonably possible, operate the Stage 2 Liquefaction Facility in accordance with Owner’s reasonable instructions and all Permits (“Operations Activity” or collectively “Operations Activities”). Contractor shall not have the obligation to follow Owner’s instructions for any Operations Activity if such Operations Activity in Contractor’s reasonable opinion has more than a minimal impact on Contractor’s cost of performance of the Work or Contractor’s ability to perform the Work in accordance with the Project Schedule or Contractor’s ability to perform any other obligation under this Agreement, the intent of this Section 11.7A being that Contractor’s performance of the Work shall have priority over the operation of the Stage 2 Liquefaction Facility; provided, however, notwithstanding the foregoing, Owner shall be entitled to direct Contractor to stop, or cause to be stopped, all or any portion of the Work if the continuance of such Work would, in Owner’s reasonable opinion, be unsafe or cause damage to the Project or the Liquefaction Facility. Within twelve (12) hours of receipt of Owner’s instructions regarding such Operations Activity, Contractor shall provide notice to Owner informing Owner whether it can comply with Owner’s instructions and the reason if it cannot so comply. Contractor’s performance of the Operations Activities shall not in any way release Contractor or any surety of Contractor from any obligations or liabilities pursuant to this Agreement.

- 81 -

B. Operation by Owner. Upon Owner’s election to take care, custody and control of Subproject 3 in accordance with Section 11.4, Owner has the right to operate Subproject 3. Owner shall bear the risk of physical loss and damage to the Work and the Project as provided in Article 8.

ARTICLE 12

WARRANTY AND CORRECTION OF WORK

12.1 Warranty.

A. General. The warranties set forth in this Article 12 (collectively, the “Warranty” or “Warranties”) are in addition to any of the Minimum Acceptance Criteria or the Performance Guarantee set forth in this Agreement. Any Work, or component thereof, that is not in conformity with any Warranty is defective (“Defective”) and contains a defect (“Defect”).

B. Warranty of Work. Contractor hereby warrants that:

1. the Equipment, and each component thereof, shall be new (unless otherwise specified in this Agreement) and of good quality;

2. the Work (including the Equipment) shall be in accordance with all of the requirements of this Agreement, including in accordance with GECP, Applicable Law and Applicable Codes and Standards; and

3. the Work (including the Equipment) shall be free from encumbrances to title, as set forth in greater detail in Section 8.1.

C. Documentation Warranty. Contractor warrants that the written instructions regarding the use of Equipment, including those instructions in operation and maintenance manuals, shall conform to this Agreement and GECP as of the time such instructions are prepared. If any non-conformance with the Warranty specified in this Section 12.1C occurs or is discovered at any time prior to or during the Defect Correction Period, Contractor shall, at its sole expense, furnish Owner with corrected instructions.

D. Assignment and Enforcement of Subcontractor Warranties. Contractor shall be fully responsible and liable to Owner for its Warranty and Corrective Work obligations and liability under this Agreement for all Work, including Work performed by its Subcontractors and Sub-subcontractors. Without limiting the foregoing, all warranties obtained by Contractor from Subcontractors shall run to the benefit of Contractor but shall permit Contractor, prior to assignment to Owner, the right (upon mutual agreement of the Parties), to authorize Owner to deal with Subcontractor on Contractor’s behalf. Such warranties, with duly executed instruments assigning the warranties shall be delivered to Owner concurrent with the end of the Defect Correction Period. This Section 12.1D shall not in any way be construed to limit Contractor’s liability under this Agreement for the entire Work or its obligation to enforce Subcontractor warranties.

- 82 -

E. Exceptions to Warranty. The Warranty excludes remedy, and Contractor shall have no liability to Owner, for any damage or defect to the extent caused by: (i) improper repairs or alterations, misuse, neglect or accident by Owner; (ii) operation, maintenance or use of the Project, Work or any component thereof in a manner not in compliance with a material requirement of operation and maintenance manuals delivered by Contractor to Owner; (iii) normal wear and tear; (iv) normal corrosion or (v) an event of Force Majeure (but only, with respect to obligations under this Article 12, to the extent such event of Force Majeure occurs after Substantial Completion).

12.2 Correction of Work Prior to Substantial Completion.

A. General Rights. All Work shall be subject to inspection by Owner at all reasonable times to determine whether the Work conforms to the requirements of this Agreement. Upon Owner giving reasonable prior notice, Contractor shall furnish Owner with access to all locations where Work is in progress on the Site and at the offices of Contractor and its Major Subcontractors. Owner shall be entitled to provide Contractor with written notice of any Work which Owner believes does not conform to the requirements of this Agreement. After Contractor becomes aware of a Defect in the Work prior to Substantial Completion, Contractor will provide Owner with a general plan that provides for Contractor to investigate and, if necessary, correct (whether by repair, replacement or otherwise) the Defect (having regard to the nature of the Defect, the Project Schedule, safety, insurance and any adverse impact on the operation of Subproject 1 or Subproject 2 after substantial completion of Subproject 1 or Subproject 2 (as applicable) under the Stage 1 EPC Agreement), which plan may need to be updated based upon the Contractor’s investigation or further development or implementation of the plan. Contractor will carry out and complete the necessary work at its own cost and expense in order to remedy the Defect prior to Substantial Completion, unless: (i) otherwise provided in the plan for earlier correction; or (ii) such Defect materially impacts the operation of Subproject 1 or Subproject 2 after substantial completion of Subproject 1 or Subproject 2 (as applicable) under the Stage 1 EPC Agreement, in which case Contractor shall immediately commence to correct the Defect and complete the remedy as expeditiously as possible. The cost of disassembling, dismantling or making safe finished Work for the purpose of inspection, and reassembling such portions (and any delay associated therewith) shall be borne by (i) Contractor, if such Work is found not to conform with the requirements of this Agreement, and (ii) by Owner, if such Work is found to conform with the requirements of this Agreement, and Contractor shall be entitled to a Change Order in such event; provided that Contractor complies with the requirements set forth in Sections 6.2 and 6.5.

B. Witness Points. Contractor shall provide Owner with a list of witness points for all Major Equipment no later than thirty (30) Days’ after execution of the relevant Subcontract and Owner shall notify Contractor which of the witness points it wishes its personnel to witness. Contractor shall provide Owner with at least fifteen (15) Days prior written notice of the actual scheduled date of each of the tests Owner has indicated it wishes to witness. Contractor shall cooperate with Owner if Owner elects to witness any additional tests, and Contractor acknowledges that Owner shall have the right to witness all tests being performed in connection with the Work. Notwithstanding

- 83 -

Owner’s rights to witness tests, Owner shall not interrupt or interfere with any test or require changes while witnessing such tests; provided however, if Owner observes testing that, in Owner’s reasonable opinion, raises a safety concern or could cause damage to Major Equipment, then Owner has the right (but not the obligation) to notify Contractor and Contractor shall promptly respond after such notification to rectify any issues.

C. No Obligation to Inspect. Owner’s right to conduct inspections under Sections 12.2A and 12.2B shall not obligate Owner to do so. Neither the exercise of Owner of any such right, nor any failure on the part of Owner to discover or reject Defective Work shall be construed to imply an acceptance of such Defective Work or a waiver of such Defect. In addition, Owner’s acceptance of any Work which is later determined to be Defective shall not in any way relieve Contractor from its obligations under this Article 12.

12.3 Correction of Work After Substantial Completion. If, during the Defect Correction Period, any Work or component thereof is found to be Defective, and Owner provides written notice to Contractor within such Defect Correction Period regarding such Defect, Contractor shall, at its sole cost and expense, promptly correct (whether by repair, replacement or otherwise) such Defective Work, including all obligations in connection with such correction, such as in and out costs, storage, labor, Taxes, transportation and expediting costs and any other costs necessary to fully correct the Work (such correction of the Defective Work is hereby defined as the “Corrective Work”). Any such notice from Owner shall state with reasonable specificity the date of occurrence or observation of the alleged Defect and the reasons supporting Owner’s belief that Contractor is responsible for performing Corrective Work. Owner shall provide Contractor with access to the Stage 2 Liquefaction Facility and/or the Stage 1 Liquefaction Facility sufficient to perform its Corrective Work, so long as such access does not unreasonably interfere with operation of the Stage 2 Liquefaction Facility or the Stage 1 Liquefaction Facility and subject to any reasonable security or safety requirements of Owner.
