compared with standard acceptance test criteria. The Engineer shall be entitled, at all reasonable
times, to witness the Test and to inspect the procedures and results of the Test for the Modules to
be supplied under the Contract, and to inspect the packing and marking of such Equipment. The
Engineer(s) have the right to reject the failed DFC Stack Module as per the test results. One copy
of the Test Report for each Module provided pursuant to this contract shall be supplied to Buyer
prior to shipment. A standard form of the Test Report is included hereunder as Appendix C. Such
inspection, examination or testing, if made, shall not relieve the Seller from any obligations
under the Contract.



9.1.2 Pre-Shipment Factory Inspection Procedures for DFC Components. The Seller agrees
to provide 30 days advance written notice to Buyer for pre-shipment inspection of Repeating
Components to be shipped to Buyer pursuant to this Contract. The parties shall negotiate in good
faith to agree on the standard pre-shipment factory inspection procedures for DFC Components which
will be included in the MATTA.



The Seller shall conduct normal and standard inspections of all materials and the workmanship
of all DFC Components to be supplied under this Contract in accordance with the standard
pre-shipment factory inspection procedures for DFC Components. Seller shall prepare an Inspection
Report documenting results of the standard pre-shipment factory inspections for DFC Components.
One copy of the Inspection Report for each set of DFC Components provided pursuant to this contract
shall be supplied to Buyer prior to shipment. A standard form of the Inspection Report is included
hereunder as Appendix D. Such inspection, examination or testing, if made, shall not relieve the
Seller from any obligations under the Contract.



9.2 Performance Guarantee for DFC Modules and DFC Components




9.2.1 The guaranteed power output and efficiency for the POSCO Plant final acceptance test at the
customer site (“FA Test”) shall be set forth in the POSCO Plant Specifications. If after repeated
FA Tests over a period of six (6) months from the first FA Test, the POSCO Plant fails to achieve
the guaranteed power output and/or efficiency set forth in the POSCO Plant Specifications, for
causes solely attributable to the DFC Module or the DFC Components provided by Seller, but achieves
at least 95% of the guaranteed power output and/or efficiency, the Contract Price for the DFC
Module or DFC Components shall be reduced to reflect the shortfall in either the power output or
the efficiency proportionally, whichever shortfall amount is higher.



9.2.2 Liquidated Damage. In the event the POSCO Plant fails to achieve at least 95% of the
guaranteed power output and/or efficiency solely due to the fault of the DFC Module or DFC
Components after repeated FA tests, Seller shall notify Buyer in writing of the reason for such
failure. If the reason is solely attributable to causes related to DFC Module or DFC Components
provided by Seller, then Seller shall have a period of six (6) months from the first FA test to
take necessary corrective actions and repeat the FA test to achieve greater than 95% of the
guaranteed power output and/or efficiency. If at the end of such time period 95% of the guaranteed
power output and/or efficiency is still not achieved, then Buyer shall have recourse to Article
16.1 below.



9.2.3 Additional Liquidated Damage Applicable Only to DFC Modules Wholly Manufactured by
Seller. In the event that during the commissioning period, excluding the FA test, the
commissioning of the POSCO Plant is discontinued due to causes solely attributable to defects of
DFC Modules wholly



CONFIDENTIAL



 


 









 





manufactured by Seller, the Buyer is entitled to claim liquidated damages per day of Commissioning
Discontinuances in an amount equivalent to 0.15% of the price for the total Equipment (e.g in case
of 2.4 MW plant, the total equipment is two DFC Modules) provided by Seller. The total amount of
liquidated damages payable by Seller to Buyer under this paragraph shall not exceed five percent
(5%) of the price of the total Equipment. In the event of Commissioning Discontinuance caused by
the defects of DFC Modules wholly manufactured by Seller, Seller should exercise commercially
reasonable efforts to eliminate the defects at Seller’s own cost; and Buyer shall support Seller to
eliminate defects in the most efficient manner. Seller shall provide Buyer with action plans, root
causes and corrective actions before and after taking actions.



10. WARRANTIES




10.1 Warranties Against Defects, Etc. The Seller warrants, for a period of eighteen (18)
months from the date of EXW shipment, or twelve (12) months from the date of first operation at the
installation site, whichever occurs first, that (i) the DFC Modules and DFC Components to be
delivered hereunder shall be free from defects in material and workmanship; and (ii) the DFC
Modules and DFC Components conform to the DFC Module Specifications and DFC Component
Specifications and other requirements set forth in this Contract. If the DFC Modules experience
reduction in power output below 90% of rating, averaged over any consecutive 30-day period during
the warranty period, for causes solely attributable to Seller, Seller shall use its reasonable best
efforts to take corrective actions as provided by the warranty provisions hereunder, to increase
the average power output above 90% of rating.



10.2 Remedies for Breach of Warranties Against Defects, Etc.



10.2.1 If any DFC Modules or DFC Components delivered do not meet the warranties set forth in
Article 10.1 during the warranty period, the Buyer shall promptly notify the Seller in writing.
The Seller shall, at its own expense and cost, correct the defects by: (i) repairing the defective
parts of the Equipment, (ii) replacing the defective parts if repair is impossible; or (iii)
providing an equitable adjustment of the Contract Price. For the avoidance of doubt, the Seller
shall bear all costs and expenses incurred in connection with any of the above corrective measures,
including customs clearance at a Korean port, inland transportation from the port to the Site and
field labor.



10.2.2 If the Seller does not commence the correction of such defects within 30 days from the
date of receipt of notice from the Buyer, and Seller’s acceptance of such notice, or does not
complete the said correction with reasonable diligence and within a reasonable time, the Buyer may,
at its option, correct the defects at the Seller’s risk and expense. The Seller shall reimburse the
expense incurred by the Buyer for remedy of such defects within thirty (30) days from the date of
receipt of the Buyer’s invoice.



10.3 Downtime Warranty. If a complete DFC Module wholly manufactured by Seller is forced to
continuously or intermittently decrease power output below 50% of the power output at final
acceptance (“Downtime”), and if such Downtime is due to causes solely attributable to Seller, then
Seller shall be subject to liquidated damages as outlined in this section.




	 	(A)	 	In the event that the cumulative number of days of Downtime for the DFC Module
exceeds forty-five (45) days during the warranty period, Seller shall pay to Buyer an
amount of zero point one percent (0.1%) of the applicable individual unit price as
indicated in Annex A, for each day of such Downtime exceeding forty-five days as
liquidated damages. Liquidated damages for Downtime pursuant to this section shall not
exceed ten percent (10%) of the applicable individual unit price as indicated in Annex
A. Seller agrees to pay such liquidated damages within thirty (30) days after receiving
Buyer’s invoice reflecting such claims. Buyer






CONFIDENTIAL



 


 









 






	 	 	 	agrees that the Liquidated damages shall not be duplicated with the Liquidated damages
of the Performance Guarantee of LTSA. During the Warranty period, only the Liquidated
damages of Downtime shall be applied.







	 	(B)	 	Any Downtime attributable in part or in full to the following causes shall not
be considered as Downtime attributable to Seller: (i) corrections, modifications and
repairs undertaken pursuant to Seller’s maintenance obligations; (ii) causes not
attribute to Seller which delay commencement or execution of corrective measures; (iii)
causes which cannot clearly be identified or proven by the Parties; (iv) failure of the
Third Party Owner to comply with the Specifications, Manuals, or with the conditions of
the warranty; or outage time wholly or partially due to causes beyond the reasonable
control of the Seller.






10.4 General Warranty Provisions



10.4.1 Title Warranty. Seller shall warrant that the Plant(s) and any Equipment and
related services are delivered hereunder free from any and all rightful, legitimate and proven
claims, demands, liens and/or encumbrances of title. If any failure to comply with this warranty
appears at any time, Buyer will give prompt written notice to Seller, and Seller shall defend the
title thereto and save Buyer harmless from or reimburse all losses, damages and liabilities of
every kind, arising in connection with such failure. This warranty shall be extended during the
period of such title defense without limit as to time.



10.4.2 Assignment of Warranty. This warranty may be assigned by the Buyer to the Third
Party Owner upon final sale, provided that the terms of the warranty shall be determined in
accordance with this Article without regard to any such sale.

accordance with the POSCO Plant Manuals, or in the absence of such POSCO Plant Manuals, the DFC
Plant Manuals as applicable; and (iii) repair or modification pursuant to Seller’s instructions or
approval. Buyer shall keep proper records of operation and maintenance during the warranty period.
These records shall be kept in the form of logsheets and copies shall be submitted to Seller upon
its request. Seller does not warrant any equipment or services of others designated by Buyer where
such equipment or services are not normally supplied by Seller.



10.6 The Seller shall have no obligation to correct, repair and/or replace the DFC Plants, DFC

warranty period and whether a claim, however instituted, is based on contract, indemnity, warranty,
tort (including negligence), strict liability or otherwise. THE FOREGOING WARRANTIES ARE EXCLUSIVE
AND ARE IN LIEU OF ALL OTHER WARRANTIES AND GUARANTEES WHETHER WRITTEN, ORAL, IMPLIED OR STATUTORY.
NO IMPLIED STATUTORY WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE SHALL APPLY.



11. LIMITATION OF LIABILITY




11.1 Each party (Indemnitor) agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the other party (Indemnitee)
from and against any and all losses, obligations, liabilities, damages, claims which may be
asserted against or sustained or incurred by the Indemnitee arising out of or related to any breach
of any of the representations, warranties, agreements and covenants made by Indemnitor in this
Contract; any bodily injury or death suffered by anyone; any property damage of any third parties;
or any wrongful and negligent act of Indemnitor that occurs under this Contract, in an amount not
to exceed such plant’s Contract Price; provided, any claim under Section 15.1 shall not be subject
to any such limitations set forth in this Article 13.1. In no event, whether as a result of breach
of contract, warranty, tort (including negligence), strict liability, indemnity, or otherwise,
shall either party or its subcontractors or suppliers be liable to the other party for loss of
profit or revenues, loss of use of the Plant or any associated equipment, cost of capital, cost of
substitute equipment, facilities, services or replacement power, claims of Indemnitor’s customers
for such damages, or for any special, consequential, incidental, indirect or exemplary damages.



If Seller furnishes Buyer with advice or assistance concerning any products, systems or work which
is not specifically required by the Specification, the furnishing of such advice or assistance will
not subject Seller to any liability, whether in contract, indemnity, warranty, tort (including
negligence), strict liability or otherwise.



11.2 If Buyer transfers title to the Facilities to a third party, Buyer shall obligate such third
party to be bound by the provisions of this Article to the same extent as Buyer is obligated. In
the event Buyer cannot obtain the foregoing for Seller, Buyer shall indemnify, defend and hold
Seller harmless from and against any and all claims described in the preceding paragraphs of this
Article made by any such third party against Seller.



11.3 The provisions of this Article shall prevail over any conflicting or inconsistent provisions
contained in any of the documents comprising this Contract, except to the extent that such
provisions further restrict any party’s liability.



12. COSTS AND CHARGES




12.1 In case the repair, making good, replacement or modification is required hereunder, the Seller
shall at its own expense make available at the Site the replacement parts necessary for the
performance of the above.



CONFIDENTIAL



 


 









 





12.2 In the event that non-commercial cargo must be shipped due to reasons attributable to Seller’s
error, e.g. errors in preparation of transport documents, or incorrect negotiation against the
transport documents; the Seller shall deliver such cargo to the Site and shall pay all costs
including the ocean freight, premium, expenses for inland transportation to the Site, importation
taxes, and custom duties.



12.3 In case any vessel arrangement made by the Seller without prior consent by or consultation
with the Buyer, the Seller shall bear all associated costs and expenses including the ocean and/or

the use of process that have been supplied by the Seller as a result of engineering services, any
patent, design patent, trade mark or copyright.



13.2 In the event that any claim is made or action is brought against the Buyer or the Third Party
Owner, including its employees, engineers and/or agents, relating to such infringement, the Buyer
shall promptly notify the Seller thereof and the Seller at its expense and option may request the
assistance of the Buyer and shall conduct, on behalf of the Buyer all negotiations for settlement
of such dispute or litigation as may arise therefrom.



13.3 If, in such a suit or proceedings, the Module or parts thereof are held to constitute an
infringement and the use thereof is enjoined, Seller promptly shall, at its option and expense,
either procure for Buyer the right to continue using such Module, or replace such infringing Module
with non-infringing Module which are equal to or better than the previous Module, or modify the
infringing Module so that they become non-infringing without impairing the quality, performance or
any guarantee on the original Module, provided, however, that nothing contained herein shall be
deemed to relieve Seller from its warranty obligations under the Contract.



13.4 Intellectual property and confidentiality



A. Terms and conditions for ownership of intellectual property will be according to Article
III of the TTA.

such extension of time to fulfill such obligation as may be reasonably necessary in view of
circumstances, subject to the provisions of notifying the other by fax or email of the date when
such delay commenced, and reasons therefore within a reasonable period. The party so affected
shall try to use its commercially reasonable efforts to avoid or remove such causes of the force
majeure, and to complete performance of its obligations under the Contract with the reasonable
promptness whenever such causes are removed.



14.2 If, after ninety (90) days from the date of giving the aforesaid notice, the notifying party
shall still be prevented, for the reasons beyond its control, from continuing to perform its
obligations under the Contract, then either party shall be entitled to terminate this Contract,
without any liability to each other.



14.3 In the event of change in the Contract and/or termination of the Contract under Article 16.3
hereof, the Buyer and the Seller shall agree upon the costs to be borne by either party.



15. DISPUTES AND ARBITRATION

Contract (the “Dispute”) whether based on contract, tort, common law, equity, statute, regulation,
order or otherwise, shall be resolved as follows:




(i) Upon written request of any Party, the Parties shall meet and attempt to resolve any
such Dispute. Such meetings may take place via teleconference or videoconference. The
Parties shall meet as often as the Parties reasonably deem necessary to discuss the problem
in an effort to resolve the Dispute without the necessity of any formal proceeding.




(ii) Formal proceedings for the resolution of a Dispute may not be commenced until the later
of (i) the Parties concluding in good faith that amicable resolution through continued
negotiation of the matter does not appear likely; or (ii) the expiration of a sixty (60) day
period immediately following the initial request by either party to resolve the Dispute;
provided, however, that this Section will not be construed to prevent a party from
instituting formal proceedings earlier to avoid the expiration of any applicable limitations
period, to preserve a superior position with respect to other creditors or to seek temporary
or preliminary injunctive relief.



15.2 If the parties are unable to resolve any Dispute pursuant Section 15.1, shall be finally
settled under the Rules of Arbitration (the “Rules”) of the International Chamber of Commerce
(“ICC”) by three (3) arbitrators designated by the parties. Each party shall designate one
arbitrator. The third arbitrator shall be designated by the two arbitrators designated by the
parties. If either party fails to designate an arbitrator within thirty (30) days after the filing
of the Dispute with the ICC, such arbitrator shall be appointed in the manner prescribed by the
Rules. An arbitration proceeding hereunder shall be conducted in London UK and shall be conducted
in the English language. The decision or award of the arbitrators shall be in writing and is final
and binding on both parties. The arbitration panel shall award the prevailing party its attorneys’
fees and costs, arbitration administrative fees, panel member fees and costs, and any other costs
associated with the arbitration, the enforcement of any arbitration award and the costs and
attorney’s fees involved in obtaining specific performance of an award; provided,
however, that if the claims or defenses are granted in part and rejected in part, the
arbitration panel shall proportionately allocate between the parties those arbitration expenses in
accordance with the outcomes; provided, further, that the attorney’s fees and costs
of enforcing a specific performance arbitral award shall always be paid by the non-enforcing party,
unless the applicable action was determined to be without merit by final, non-appealable decision.
The arbitration panel may only award damages as provided for under the terms of this Agreement and
in no event may punitive, consequential and special damages be awarded. In the event of any
conflict between the Rules and any provision of this contract, this Contract shall govern.



CONFIDENTIAL

Contract, which breach is not cured within sixty (60) days following receipt from the other party
of notice of such breach, the other party may, at its sole discretion, immediately terminate this
Contract by providing written notice of the party in breach. In addition, if there exist
reasonable grounds to doubt either the Buyer’s or the Seller’s ability to perform its obligations
under this Contract in full, then the other party shall have the right to demand assurances for
adequate performance. If no such assurances are provided within sixty (60) days of the request,

longer than thirty (30) days after the date payment is due, then Seller may, at its option and
subject to stay pending the outcome of any dispute resolution proceeding initiated pursuant to the
Article entitled “Disputes and Arbitration” hereunder, either (i) stop work, terminate the Contract
for breach and initiate suit for collection of outstanding balances; or (ii) stop work, invoice
Buyer in advance for all remaining payments due under this Contract, and continue performance of
this Contract upon receipt of such payments from Buyer, with appropriate schedule adjustments

mutual agreement. In the event of termination (or cancellation) under this Section 16.2:




	 	(A)	 	Buyer acknowledges and agrees that the Initial Downpayment described in section
4.3.1 hereunder shall be non-refundable;







	 	(B)	 	Seller acknowledges and agrees that in the event that only part of the Contract
is terminated (or cancelled) pursuant to Section 16.2, the Initial Downpayment may be
used to set off any payments required for any portion of the Contract that is not
terminated (or cancelled) by the Buyer; and







	 	(C)	 	Seller further agrees that with the exception of the Initial Payment as
described in this Section, the Buyer shall not be liable for any costs incurred by the
Seller or any other payments required under this Contract.






16.3 When termination of the Contract due to the breach attributable to the Seller becomes
effective, Seller shall be responsible for direct costs and non-cancelable commitments (if
any) related to installation and assembly of the Module into a complete Plant, which is
incurred by Buyer prior to the date of termination. Buyer shall take all reasonable steps to
minimize termination costs. In no event, however, shall Seller be obligated to pay Buyer any
amount in excess of the total estimated costs up to the time of termination to support the
work.



16.4 In the event that the liquidated damage due to the delay in delivery of any Module(s) or any
Equipment under Article 6.1.4 has reached the maximum amount, then the Buyer may terminate
this Contract upon at least thirty (30) days’ written notice to Seller. In full discharge of
any obligations to Buyer in respect of this Contract and such termination, Seller shall refund
to Buyer all payments theretofore made to Seller. Buyer shall take all reasonable steps to
minimize Seller’s expenses and shall cooperate with Seller.



CONFIDENTIAL



 


 









 





17. ASSIGNMENT AND SUB-CONTRACTING




17.1 Neither party shall, without the consent in writing of the other party, which shall not be
unreasonably withheld, assign or transfer the Contract or the benefits or obligations thereof or
any part thereof to any person. Any such placing of sub-orders shall not relieve the Seller from
its obligations under the Contract.



18. TAXES AND DUTIES




18.1 The Seller shall pay all the taxes, charges, customs duties and tariffs for sale or export of
the Modules assessed or imposed on the Seller by the government or other competent authorities of
