	5.2	 	Claims. The Vendor hereby unconditionally and irrevocably covenants with the Purchaser that,
subject always to the limitations set out in Clause 6, it will indemnify the Purchaser and the
Company against all Losses and Expenses that any of the Purchaser Group Companies or the
Company may suffer or incur or pay in enforcing its rights in connection with any matter
referred to in this Agreement or any of the Transaction Documents including, without
limitation:






	 	(i)	 	the disputing and/or settlement of any Claims and any steps taken to avoid
and advice sought in connection with any actual, threatened or anticipated Claims;
	 
	 	(ii)	 	any legal proceedings in which any of the Purchaser Group Companies or the
Company makes a Claim; and
	 
	 	(iii)	 	the enforcement of any such settlement or judgement.

7









 












	 	(a)	 	the Purchaser has been induced to enter and is entering into this Agreement and
the other Transaction Documents on the basis of and in reliance upon the Warranties;






	 	(b)	 	the Purchaser may rely on the Warranties to the exclusion of any other
information, and that, with the exception of matters set forth in the Disclosure
Schedule, the Purchaser’s rights in respect thereof will not be in any way impaired as
a result of any other information being possessed by or available to any Purchaser
Group Companies or any officer, employee, professional or financial adviser of, or
person acting on behalf of, the Purchaser or any Purchaser Group Companies.






	5.4	 	Warranties are separate and independent. Each Warranty shall be construed as a separate and
independent warranty and, save as expressly provided otherwise, shall not be limited or
restricted by reference to or inference from any other terms of this Agreement or any other
Warranty.
	 
	5.5	 	Reduction in Consideration. Any payments made by the Vendor to the Purchaser in respect of
Claims shall, to the extent lawfully possible, be treated by the parties as a reduction in the
Consideration; provided, however, that this Clause 5.5 shall not in any way limit or restrict
the amount recoverable by the Purchaser or any other person under this agreement to the amount
of the Consideration or any other amount (but this is without prejudice to the limitations set
out in Clause 6).
	 
	5.6	 	Awareness of Vendor and Ordinary Course of Business. Where any Warranty is qualified by
reference to the awareness, knowledge, information or belief of the Vendor (or any similar
expression), the Vendor shall be deemed to have such awareness, knowledge, information or
belief as it would have after having made reasonable enquiry of the senior executive managers
and officers of the Vendor. In relation to each of the Warranties concerning the assets,
liabilities, Contracts, Vessel or results of the Company, such Warranties shall be deemed to
be qualified by reference to exclude any matters (whether or not Disclosed) arising in the
ordinary and normal course of trading since the Closing Date.
	 
	5.7	 	Provision of information. The Vendor undertakes promptly to provide the Purchaser with any
information that the Purchaser may by written notice request in relation to:
	 
	(a)	 	any of the Warranties or any statement of fact contained elsewhere in this Agreement or any
other Transaction Document; or
	 
	(b)	 	the Disclosure Schedule or any other disclosure made or information provided (or purportedly
made or provided) under this Clause 5.7; or
	 
	(c)	 	any matter or question connected with or arising out of any of the foregoing,
	 
	 	 	but this only applies to information that is (either at the Closing Date or at the date of
the request) in the possession of the Vendor or that the Vendor or any of its professional
advisers can reasonably be expected to obtain and present without undue efforts.




8









 






	5.8	 	Disclosure in Disclosure Schedule. The Vendor shall not have any liability in respect of any
Claim if and to the extent that any fact, matter or circumstance that causes any of the
Warranties to be breached or that might result in a Claim or possible Claim has been Disclosed
in the Disclosure Schedule or otherwise in any of the Transaction Documents.
	 
	5.9	 	Notification of potential Claims before Closing. If, at any time before Closing, the Vendor
becomes aware of any Claim or any matter that could reasonably be expected to cause a Claim to
arise or any matter that at Closing would constitute a Claim or could reasonably be expected
to cause a Claim to arise, it shall forthwith disclose the same in writing to the Purchaser.
	 
	6	 	REMEDIES OF THE PURCHASER
	 
	6.1	 	Survival. Subject to the limitations and other provisions of this Agreement and the
Transaction Documents, the representations and warranties of the Vendor contained in this
Agreement (including the Schedules hereto), the Disclosure Schedule and the Transaction
Documents shall survive the Closing and remain in full force and effect for a period of
12 months after the Closing Date; provided, however, that (a) the Warranties in Clauses 1.2
(Title to Interest), 1.3 (No arrangements relating to share capital), 11 (Taxation) and 12.1
(No brokers fees) of Schedule A to this Agreement shall survive until, and shall terminate
upon, the date of expiration of the applicable statute of limitations with respect to the
liability in question. The covenants and agreements of the Vendor contained in this Agreement
and the Transactions Documents that by their terms extend beyond the Closing Date shall not
terminate until all obligations with respect thereto have been performed or satisfied or shall
have expired or been terminated in accordance with their terms.
	 
	6.2	 	Indemnification by the Vendor

Group Company or the Company arising out of or related to the breach of any representation,
warranty, covenant or agreement of the Vendor in this Agreement (including the Schedules
hereto), the Disclosure Schedule and the Transaction Documents, to the extent Vendor is
notified by the Purchaser of such Losses or Expenses prior to expiration of the applicable
survival period set forth in Clause 6.1 above, (ii) any Covered Environmental Losses relating
to the Interest to the extent that the Vendor is notified by the Purchaser of any such Covered
Environmental Losses within five (5) years after the Closing Date; (iii) Losses or Expenses
to the Purchaser, the Purchaser Group Companies or the Company arising from (A) the failure of
the Purchaser Group Companies, immediately after the Closing Date, to be the owner of such
ownership Interest in and to the Interest as are necessary to enable the Purchaser Group
Companies to own and operate the Interest and/or the Vessel in substantially the same manner
that the Interest and/or the Vessel were owned and operated by the Vendor Group Companies
immediately prior to the Closing Date or (B) the failure of the Purchaser Group Companies to
have on the Closing Date any consent or governmental permit necessary to allow the Purchaser
Group Companies to own or operate the Interest in substantially the same manner that the
Interest were owned and operated by the Vendor Group Companies immediately prior to the

	 	 	each of clauses (A) and (B) above, to the extent that the Vendor is notified by the
Purchaser of such Losses or Expenses within three (3) years after the Closing Date; and (iv)

of the Interest prior to the Closing Date.

(Ten Million United States Dollars). Furthermore, no claim may be made against the Vendor for
indemnification pursuant to Clause 6.2(a) unless the aggregate dollar amount of all claims for
indemnification pursuant to such clause shall exceed $500,000 (Five Hundred Thousand United
States Dollars), in which case the Vendor shall be liable for claims for indemnification only
to the extent such aggregate amount exceeds $500,000 (Five Hundred Thousand United States
Dollars).
	 
	6.3	 	General Provisions.
	 
	(a)	 	The Purchaser agrees that within a reasonable period of time after it becomes aware of facts
giving rise to a claim for indemnification pursuant to Clause 6.2, it will provide notice
thereof in writing to the Vendor specifying the nature of and specific basis for such claim.
	 
	(b)	 	The Vendor shall have the right to control all aspects of the defence of (and any
counterclaims with respect to) any claims brought against the Purchaser, the Purchaser Group
Companies or the Company that are covered by the indemnification set forth in Clause 6.2,
including, without limitation, the selection of counsel, determination of whether to appeal
any decision of any court and the settling of any such matter or any issues relating thereto;
provided, however, that no such settlement shall be entered into without the consent (which
consent shall not be unreasonably withheld) of the Purchaser (with the concurrence of the
conflicts committee of Teekay Offshore Operating GP L.L.C.) unless it includes a full release
of the Purchaser, the Purchaser Group Companies and the Company from such matter or issues, as
the case may be.
	 
	(c)	 	The Purchaser agrees to cooperate fully with the Vendor with respect to all aspects of the
defence of any claims covered by the indemnification set forth in Clause 6.2, including,
without limitation, the prompt furnishing to the Vendor of any correspondence or other notice
relating thereto that the Purchaser, the Purchaser Group Companies or the Company may receive,
permitting the names of such parties to be utilized in connection with such defence, the
making available to the Vendor of any files, records or other information of such parties that
the Vendor considers relevant to such defence and the making available to the Vendor of any
employees of the Purchaser, the Purchaser Group Companies or the Comapny; provided, however,
that in connection therewith the Vendor agrees to use reasonable efforts to minimize the
impact thereof on the operations of such parties and further agrees to maintain the
confidentiality of all files, records and other information furnished by any such party
pursuant to this Clause 6.3. In no event shall the obligation of the Purchaser to cooperate
with the Vendor as set forth in the immediately preceding sentence be construed as imposing
upon the Purchaser an obligation to hire and pay for counsel in connection with the defence of
any claims covered by the indemnification set forth in this Clause 6; provided, however, that
the Purchaser may, at its own option, cost and expense, hire and pay for counsel in connection
with any such defence. The Vendor agrees to keep any such counsel hired by the Purchaser
reasonably informed as to the status of any such defence (including




10









 






	 	 	providing such counsel with such information related to any such defence as such counsel may
reasonably request) but the Vendor shall have the right to retain sole control over such
defence.
	 
	(d)	 	In determining the amount of any Loss or Expense for which the Purchaser, any Purchaser Group
Company or the Company is entitled to indemnification under this Agreement, the gross amount
of the indemnification will be reduced by (i) any insurance proceeds realized by such parties,
and such correlative insurance benefit shall be net of any incremental insurance premium that
becomes due and payable by such parties as a result of such claim, and (ii) all amounts
recovered by such parties under contractual indemnities from third persons. The Purchaser
hereby agrees to use commercially reasonable efforts to realize any applicable insurance
proceeds or amounts recoverable under such contractual indemnities; provided, however, that
the costs and expenses (including, without limitation, court costs and reasonable attorneys’
fees) of the Purchaser, the Purchaser Group Companies or the Company in connection with such
efforts shall be promptly reimbursed by the Vendor in advance of any determination of whether
such insurance proceeds or other amounts will be recoverable.
	 
	(e)	 	The Purchaser hereby acknowledges and agrees that its sole and exclusive remedy with respect
to any and all claims relating to the subject matter of this Agreement and the Transaction
Documents shall be pursuant to the indemnification provisions set forth in this Clause 6. In
furtherance of the foregoing, the Purchaser hereby waives, to the fullest extent permitted
under applicable law, any and all rights, claims and causes of action it may have against the
Vendor and the Vendor Group Companies arising under or based upon any federal, state, foreign
or local statute, law, ordinance, rule or regulation (including, without limitation, any such
rights, claims or causes of action arising under or based upon common law or otherwise).
	 
	7	 	IMPLEMENTATION
	 
	7.1	 	Further assurances. The Vendor shall (and shall procure that any other relevant person
shall) execute any deeds or documents and exercise or waive any rights and generally take any
action, including passing (or procuring that there is passed) any resolution of the Vendor or
(whilst the Vendor remains the registered owner) the Company that the Purchaser may reasonably
require, which may be necessary for the Transaction Documents to be carried into effect.
	 
	8	 	COSTS
	 
	8.1	 	Responsibility for costs. Except where expressly provided otherwise, each party shall pay
its own costs connected with the negotiation, preparation, execution and implementation of the
Transaction Documents and any matters connected therewith and investigating the affairs of the
Company.
	 
	9	 	OTHER PROVISIONS
	 
	9.1	 	Entire agreement. This Agreement together with the other Transaction Documents constitutes
the entire agreement between the parties regarding the sale and purchase of the Interest and
related matters and supersedes any prior drafts, agreements, undertakings, representations,
warranties and arrangements of any kind, whether or not




11









 






	 	 	in writing, regarding the same, all
of which are hereby terminated and
shall cease to have effect in all
respects, and the parties confirm
that there are no collateral or
supplemental agreements relating to
the Transaction Documents, except as
expressly set forth herein or
therein.
	 
	9.2	 	Assignment.
	 
	(a)	 	This Agreement shall be binding on and enure for the benefit of each party’s successors and
permitted assigns. Save as provided in Clause 9.2(b), no party shall, without the prior
written consent of the other party, assign, transfer, charge or deal in any other manner with
this Agreement or any of its rights (whether to damages or otherwise) or obligations arising
under or in connection with the Agreement, or purport to do any of the same, nor sub-contract
any or all of its obligations under this Agreement, and any such assignment, transfer, charge
or dealing shall be void for all purposes.
	 
	(b)	 	The Purchaser may assign all or any part of its rights and benefits under this Agreement to
any Purchaser Group Companies.
	 
	(c)	 	Subject to and upon any succession or assignment permitted by this Agreement, any such
successor or assignee shall in its own right be able to enforce any term of this Agreement in
accordance with the terms of this Agreement as if it were a party, but until such time shall
have no rights whether as a third party or otherwise. The Vendor shall have no greater
liabilities towards any successor or assignee of the Purchaser than it would have had to the
Purchaser had the Purchaser remained fully and solely entitled under this Agreement.
	 
	9.3	 	Right of set-off, deductions and withholdings and Tax on payments.
	 
	(a)	 	The Purchaser shall not be entitled to set off against the Consideration any sums owing to it
by the Vendor.
	 
	(b)	 	If any deduction or withholding is required by law to be made from any payment from one party
to another party under any Transaction Document, the party making the payment shall increase
the amount thereof so as to ensure that the recipient receives and is able to retain that
amount that it would have received and retained had the payment not been the subject matter of
such deduction or withholding provided always that if the recipient is entitled to a credit or
some other benefit as a consequence of the payment to it being the subject matter of a
deduction or withholding it shall use its reasonable endeavours to utilise the credit (whether
by set off, or by claiming a repayment in respect thereof, or otherwise) or benefit so arising
and in the event that it is able so to do it shall repay to the party who made the payment an
amount equal to the credit or benefit so utilised, provided always that this clause is without
prejudice to the limitations on the Vendor’s liabilities as set out in Clause 6. For the
avoidance of doubt, this clause shall not impose upon the recipient of the payment any
obligation to utilise any credit or benefit in priority to any other economic credit or
benefit available to it or to pay to the party making the payment an amount greater than that
by which the original payment was increased under this Clause 9.3.
	 
	(c)	 	If any payment from the Vendor to the Purchaser under any Transaction Document is liable to
Tax in the hands of the Purchaser, the Vendor shall increase the payment by




12









 






	 	 	such an amount as will ensure that the Purchaser is
able to receive and retain, after paying Tax in
respect of its receipt, an amount equal to that which
would otherwise have been paid to it had the receipt
not been subject to Tax in its hands, provided always
that this clause is without prejudice to the
limitations on the Vendor’s liabilities as set out in
Clause 6. The parties shall agree to the amount of
any increase in a relevant payment to give effect to
this Clause 9.3. In the event that the parties are
not able to agree the amount of any increase, the
amount thereof shall be certified by the Purchaser’s
auditors acting as experts whose decision in respect
thereof shall be binding on the relevant parties
except in the case of manifest error.
	 
	9.4	 	Waivers, rights and remedies.
	 
	(a)	 	No failure or delay on the part of either party to this Agreement in exercising any right or
remedy provided by law or under this Agreement shall impair such right or remedy or operate as
a waiver or variation of it or preclude its exercise at any subsequent time and no single or
partial exercise of any such right or remedy shall preclude or restrict any other or further
exercise of it or the exercise of any other right or remedy.
	 
	(b)	 	A waiver by either party to this Agreement of a breach of or default under any Transaction
Document shall not constitute a waiver of any other breach or default, shall not affect the
other terms of any Transaction Document or the rights of any other person thereto and shall
not prevent the Purchaser from subsequently requiring compliance with the waived obligation.
	 
	(c)	 	Any waiver (in whole or in part) of any right or remedy under this Agreement must be set out
in writing, signed by or on behalf of the person granting the waiver and may be given subject
to any conditions thought fit by the grantor and, unless otherwise expressly stated, any
waiver shall be effective only in the instance and only for the purpose for, and in favour of
the person to, which it is given.
	 
	(d)	 	Unless specifically provided otherwise, the rights and remedies of the Purchaser and the
Vendor under or pursuant to any Transaction Document are cumulative, may be exercised as often
as the Purchaser or the Vendor, as applicable considers appropriate and are in addition to its
rights and remedies under the general law.
	 
	9.5	 	Variations. No variation of any Transaction Document shall be valid unless it is agreed in
writing and signed by or on behalf of each of the parties thereto.
	 
	9.6	 	Effect of Closing. This Agreement (other than obligations that have already been fully
performed) remains in full force after Closing.
	 
	9.7	 	Provisions of Agreement severable. If any provisions of this Agreement or any other
Transaction Document is, or becomes, invalid, unenforceable or illegal, in whole or in part,
under the laws of any jurisdiction, such term or provision or part shall to that extent be
deemed not to form part of this Agreement or the relevant Transaction Document (as the case
may be), but the validity, enforceability or legality of the remaining provisions of this
Agreement or the relevant Transaction Document shall not be impaired.
	 
	9.8	 	Interest for late payment. Any sum owing by either party under this Agreement shall carry
interest from (and excluding) the date on which it is payable until (and including)




13









 






	 	 	the date of actual payment at the Specified Rate; such interest will be compounded
semi-annually and be payable after as well as before any judgment.
	 
	9.9	 	Counterparts. This Agreement and each of the other Transaction Documents may be entered into
in any number of counterparts and by the parties thereto on separate counterparts, each of
which when so executed and delivered shall be an original but each such Transaction Document
shall not be effective until each party thereto has executed at least one counterpart, but all
the counterparts for each Transaction Document shall together constitute one and the same
instrument.
	 
	9.10	 	Third party rights. This Agreement and the other Transaction Documents are made for the
benefit of the respective parties hereto and thereto and their successors and permitted
assigns only and are not intended to benefit, and no term thereof shall be enforceable by, any
other person by virtue of the Contracts (Rights of Third Parties) Act 1999.

	13	 	GST






	 	(a)	 	Definitions






	 	(i)	 	In this clause 13 the expressions “adjustment note”,
“consideration”, “GST”, “supply”, “tax invoice”, “supplier”, “recipient” and
“taxable supply” have the meanings given to those expressions in the GST Act.
	 
	 	(ii)	 	For the avoidance of doubt, “GST” excludes any penalties or
additional tax imposed in relation to the GST.






	 	(b)	 	Sums exclude GST
	 
	 	 	 	Unless otherwise expressly stated, the consideration to be provided or payment
obligation under this Agreement is exclusive of GST.
	 
	 	(c)	 	Responsibility for GST






	 	(i)	 	Despite any other provision in this Agreement, if GST is
imposed on any supply made under this Agreement, the recipient must pay to the
supplier an amount equal to the GST payable on the supply.
	 
	 	(ii)	 	The recipient must pay the amount referred to in clause
13Error! Reference source not found.(i) in addition to and at the same time as
payment for the supply is required to be made under this Agreement.
	 
	 	(iii)	 	The supplier will be responsible for any GST penalties,
interest or additional tax imposed on the supplier and attributable to its act
or omission.






	 	(d)	 	Tax invoice
	 
	 	 	 	If a supply is made to which GST applies or is varied under this Agreement, the
supplier must provide to the recipient of the supply a valid tax invoice or
adjustment note at or before the time of payment or variation.
	 
	 	(e)	 	Adjustment
	 
	 	 	 	If the amount of GST paid or payable by the supplier on any supply made under




16









 






	 	 	 	this Agreement differs from the amount of GST paid by the recipient, because the
Commissioner of Taxation lawfully adjusts the value of the taxable supply for the
purpose of calculating GST, then the amount of GST paid by the recipient will be
adjusted accordingly by a further payment by the recipient to the supplier or the
supplier to the recipient, as the case requires.
