Alternatively, the Parties may mutually agree in writing that some other date shall be deemed the Effective Date.

Section 6.6:                               Pipeline Delivery.

 

(a)                                 Pipeline Deliveries shall be made by SELLER from SELLER’s local on-island supply through SELLER’s pipelines to HECO at HECO’s BPTF.  Title to Product and the risk of loss of Product Delivered by Pipeline Delivery shall pass from SELLER to HECO as per Article IX (Title, Custody And Risk Of Loss).

 

(b)                                 The Parties shall mutually coordinate Pipeline Deliveries of Product into HECO’s BPTF to minimize operational difficulties and costs.

 

(c)                                  All samples, measurements and determinations drawn, taken and made, respectively, under this Section 6.6 (Pipeline Delivery) shall be under the supervision of the Independent Inspector.  SELLER and HECO shall share equally the cost of the inspections.

 

(d)                                 The quality and BTU Content of the Product Delivered by Pipeline Delivery shall be determined on the basis of a volumetric weighted average composite of samples drawn by the Independent Inspector from SELLER’s issuing tank(s) in such manner as to be representative of each individual Pipeline Delivery (“Tank Final Sample”).

 

(e)                                  The Tank Final Sample shall be divided into a minimum of three (3) parts as follows:

 

(1)                                 One part shall be provided to SELLER’s laboratory for analysis to determine quality including BTU Content per Barrel.

 

(2)                                 One part shall be provided to HECO for the purpose of verifying SELLER’s determinations.

 

(3)                                 At least one part shall be sealed and provided to the Independent Inspector to be retained for a period of at least three (3) Months.

 

(f)                                   SELLER agrees to provide HECO and the Independent Inspector with a copy of SELLER’s preliminary laboratory analyses of the Tank Final Sample (“Pre-shipment Report”) and shall provide this Pre-shipment Report prior to shipment of the Product.

 

(g)                                  SELLER agrees to provide HECO and the Independent Inspector with the Certificate of Quality representing the Tank Final Sample and will make a reasonable good faith effort to provide this Certificate of Quality no later than twenty-four (24) hours after the

 

15











 

completion of the Pipeline Delivery.  If the completed Certificate of Quality is not available within said 24-hour period, SELLER will advise HECO and the Independent Inspector, within said 24-hour period, will provide the final determination of API gravity, flash point, sulfur content and sediment and water representing the Tank Final Sample.

 

(h)                                 HECO shall have the right to perform laboratory analyses in order to verify the results of SELLER’s laboratory analyses; provided however, that such verification analyses shall be performed in a timely manner.  SELLER and HECO will make reasonable good faith efforts to evaluate BTU Content and exchange results within three (3) business days of the completion of the Pipeline Delivery.

 

(i)                                     In order to eliminate or minimize the volume of SELLER’s Pipeline Fill received by HECO in the course of a Pipeline Delivery operation, HECO shall have the option to perform a Reverse Line Displacement whereby SELLER’s Pipeline Fill is displaced to SELLER using HECO’s Product at the commencement of Pipeline Delivery operations.

 

If HECO elects not to commence Pipeline Delivery operations by displacing SELLER’s Pipeline Fill with HECO’s LSFO, or if such displacement is operationally unfeasible or impractical for any other cause, SELLER and HECO recognize that the Product received by HECO in a Pipeline Delivery may be a blend which includes some amount of SELLER’s Pipeline Fill (“Pipeline Blend”).  In such instance, the specification of SELLER’s Pipeline Fill shall be determined by SELLER on the basis of SELLER’s samples representative of the contents of the storage tank from which SELLER’s Pipeline Fill was issued.  SELLER agrees to provide HECO, HECO’s representative and the Independent Inspector with a copy of its laboratory analysis of the quality of SELLER’s Pipeline Fill prior to commencing the Pipeline Delivery.

 

(k)                                 To provide an early warning of any quality problems with the Product Delivered via a Pipeline Blend, SELLER agrees to perform a pre-shipment computer blend simulation representing the quantity and quality of SELLER’s Product from the issuing tank(s) as indicated in the relevant Certificates of Quality or preliminary laboratory analyses of the Tank Final Samples and the quantity and quality of SELLER’s Pipeline Fill as indicated in the relevant laboratory analyses.  The computer blend simulation shall provide preliminary confirmation of the Pipeline Blend’s conformance with the limits for API gravity, viscosity and percent by weight sulfur content specified in Article IV (Quality).  SELLER agrees to provide HECO or HECO’s representative and the Independent Inspector a copy of the computer blend simulation results prior to shipment.  SELLER agrees that under no circumstances shall it make a Pipeline Delivery of Product to HECO should the computer blend simulation or any other information available to SELLER indicate a quality problem with the Pipeline Blend that would cause a Pipeline Delivery to not conform to the Specifications, without HECO’s express written permission.

 

(l)                                     The quantity of Product in a Pipeline Delivery shall be determined at the time of each Pipeline Delivery by gauging SELLER’s issuing tank(s) immediately before and after pumping under the supervision of the Independent Inspector.  Should HECO elect to perform a Reverse Line Displacement, the total quantity of Product Delivered to HECO shall be reduced by

 

16











 

reference to the rise in SELLER’s tank(s) receiving SELLER’s Pipeline Fill, determined by gauging such tank(s) immediately before and after pipeline displacement under the supervision of the Independent Inspector.  Both HECO and SELLER agree that if measurement of SELLER’s tank(s) is, in the opinion of the Independent Inspector, considered to have been rendered inaccurate for reasons including, but not limited to, operational constraints or inadvertent transfer of Product or of SELLER’s Pipeline Fill within SELLER’s facilities, then the quantity of Product or SELLER’s Pipeline Fill may be determined by gauging HECO’s receiving tank(s) before and after pumping under the supervision of the Independent Inspector.

 

(m)                             Quantities of Product sold and Delivered by SELLER and purchased and received by HECO hereunder shall be calculated in accordance with the current measurement standards adopted by industry, ASTM, API and other recognized standard-setting bodies as are applicable in the opinion of the Independent Inspector and shall be expressed in G.S.V., U.S. Barrels @ 60 DF.

 

Section 6.7:                               Marine Delivery.

 

(a)                                 Product shall be Delivered in bulk vessel(s) inside customs passing the outboard flange of SELLER’s Delivering vessel’s cargo discharge hose connected to a nominated Discharge Pier at Kalaeloa Harbor, capable of receiving petroleum products. HECO shall not be deemed to warrant the safety of public channels, fairways, approaches thereto, anchorages or other publicly maintained areas either inside or outside the Kalaeloa Harbor area where the Discharge Pier is located.  Neither HECO nor SELLER shall be liable for any loss, damage, injury or delay resulting from conditions at the Discharge Pier or Kalaeloa Harbor or any berth, dock, or anchorage not caused by such Party’s gross negligence or which could have been avoided by the exercise of reasonable care on the part of SELLER’s nominated vessel’s master.  Product shall be Delivered by SELLER to HECO at a temperature above the pour point of the Product or at the loaded temperature, whichever is higher.  Title to Product and the risk of loss of Product Delivered by Marine Delivery shall pass from SELLER to HECO as per Article IX (Title, Custody And Risk Of Loss).

 

(b)                                 SELLER and HECO shall mutually coordinate scheduling Marine Deliveries of Product from SELLER’s nominated vessel.  SELLER shall provide HECO with all required Delivery information no later than thirty (30) Days prior to the anticipated Delivery date.  SELLER shall provide HECO with a ten (10) Day Delivery window prior to the date of the anticipated Delivery, with vessel’s estimated time of arrival (“ETA”) and will notify HECO of any ETA changes if greater than twelve (12) hours variance to ETA.  HECO shall promptly advise SELLER of any scheduling conflicts or other conditions within such ten (10) day window known to HECO that could delay SELLER’s vessel from obtaining access to the appropriate Discharge Pier at Kalaeloa Harbor and commencing deliveries into the pipeline for Delivery to the BPTF.  SELLER shall then provide HECO with all required Delivery information no later than fifteen (15) Days prior to the anticipated Delivery date.  SELLER shall provide HECO with a three (3) Day window prior to the date of the anticipated Delivery, with vessel’s ETA and will notify HECO of any ETA changes if greater than three (3) hours variance to ETA.  If at any time HECO learns of any potential scheduling conflicts or other conditions within such window known to HECO that could delay SELLER’s vessel from obtaining access to the appropriate 

 

17











 

Discharge Pier at Kalaeloa Harbor and commencing Deliveries into the pipeline for Delivery to the BPTF, HECO will promptly notify SELLER accordingly.  SELLER shall be responsible to reserve the appropriate cargo discharge pier at Kalaeloa Harbor on the agreed upon dates through the customary channel in the State of Hawaii Department of Transportation — Harbor’s Division.  HECO shall not be responsible for any demurrage, penalties or other fees as a result of any delay of the docking of the vessel and/or unloading of the fuel shipment unless caused by HECO’s failure or inability to accept Deliveries of Product into the BPTF, or as a result of SELLER’s failure to obtain pier reservations in a timely manner unless caused by HECO’s wrongful failure to provide notice of any scheduling conflicts known to HECO that prevent the vessel from obtaining access to the Discharge Pier.  Vessels originating from outside of the United States may be subject to customs inspection from the U.S. Coast Guard and/or U.S. Immigration and SELLER shall be solely responsible for coordination with these government agencies.  SELLER’s notices and advice may be given to HECO by electronic mail or telephone.

 

(c)                                  SELLER shall be responsible for any dues, fees or other charges imposed on SELLER’s nominated vessel.  SELLER shall employ and be responsible for costs of any support vessels, pilots, mooring masters or line handlers required at the Discharge Pier.  HECO shall not be responsible for any losses, damages, delays or liabilities resulting from any negligence, incompetence or incapacity of any tug, pilot or line handler required at the Discharge Pier.

 

(d)                                 SELLER agrees to provide HECO a copy of the complete Certificate of Quality issued by a competent testing laboratory on the basis of composite vessel loaded samples taken by an independent inspector at the port of loading that are reflective of the Product to be Delivered to HECO within 48 hours from date of vessel loading.

 

(e)                                  Upon arrival at Kalaeloa Harbor in Hawaii and before Delivery to HECO, an Independent Inspector will collect composite vessel loaded samples to test Product quality.  Samples shall be split into three composites, and one shall be delivered to and tested by SELLER, one shall be delivered to and tested by HECO, and one shall be preserved by the Independent Inspector.  Testing of samples will take place at an analytical laboratory of each Party’s choosing.

 

(f)                                   All samples, measurements and determinations referenced in this Section 6.7 (Marine Delivery) shall be drawn, taken and made, respectively, under the supervision of the Independent Inspector.  SELLER and HECO shall share equally the cost of independent inspections.

 

(g)                                  In order to reduce the likelihood of SELLER’s Marine Delivery resulting in quality problems arising in the receiving tank(s) at HECO’s BPTF, SELLER agrees to test a volumetric weighted average composite of samples of the relevant marine cargo of Product, or component thereof (“Precautionary Sample”).  The Precautionary Sample shall be drawn under the supervision of the Independent Inspector from SELLER’s vessel’s tanks in such a manner as to be representative of the relevant cargo after the arrival of the vessel at Kalaeloa Harbor, but prior to commencement of the Marine Delivery, SELLER agrees that should its laboratory, or a laboratory mutually acceptable to SELLER and HECO, testing of the Precautionary Sample indicate a potential quality problem, including but not limited to, a quality as determined which 

 

18











 

materially differs from that specified on the port of loading quality document or does not conform to the quality specification limits in Article IV (Quality), the vessel operator shall not be instructed to commence Delivery of its cargo to HECO’s BPTF until such time as the loaded Product or component thereof is determined to meet the port of loading quality specifications or is otherwise in conformity with the specification limits in Article IV (Quality).  Attachment C lists the testing to be performed on Precautionary Sample.

 

(h)                                 The quality and BTU Content of the Product Delivered by Marine Delivery shall be determined on the basis of a volumetric weighted average composite of samples drawn by the Independent Inspector from the vessel’s tank(s) in such a manner as to be representative of the entire Marine Delivery (“Vessel Tank Final Sample”).

 

(i)                                     The Vessel Tank Final Sample shall be divided into a minimum of three (3) parts as follows:

 

(1)                                 One part shall be provided to SELLER’s laboratory for analysis to determine quality and BTU Content per Barrel.

 

(2)                                 One part shall be provided to HECO for the purpose of verifying SELLER’s determinations.

 

(3)                                 At least one part shall be sealed and provided to the Independent Inspector to be retained for a period of not less than three (3) Months.

 

(j)                                    SELLER agrees to provide HECO and the Independent Inspector with the Certificate of Quality issued by a competent testing laboratory on the basis of the composite vessel loaded samples representing the Vessel Tank Final Sample and will make reasonable good faith efforts to provide this Certificate of Quality no later than twenty-four (24) hours after SELLER’s laboratory determines the Product Delivered by Marine Delivery is in conformance with the specification limits in Article IV (Quality).  If the completed Certificate of Quality is not available within said 24-hour period, SELLER will advise HECO and the independent Inspector, within said 24-hour period, will provide the final determination of API gravity, flash point, sulfur content and sediment and water representing the Vessel Tank Final Sample.

 

(k)                                 HECO shall have the right to perform laboratory analyses in order to verify the results of SELLER’s laboratory analyses; provided however, that such verification analyses shall be performed in a timely manner.  SELLER and HECO will make reasonable good faith efforts to evaluate BTU Content and exchange results within three (3) working days of SELLER’s laboratory determining the Product Delivered by Marine Delivery is in conformance with the specification limits in Article IV (Quality).

 

(l)                                     Quantities of the Product Delivered via a Marine Delivery hereunder shall be determined at the time of each Marine Delivery by gauging HECO’s tank(s) immediately before and after pumping under the supervision of the Independent Inspector.  If there is Reverse Line Displacement involved in a Marine Delivery, then the Quantities may be further adjusted in accordance with Paragraph 6.6(l), as appropriate.

 

19











 

(m)                             Quantities of Product sold and Delivered by SELLER and purchased and received by HECO hereunder shall be calculated in accordance with the current measurement standards adopted by industry, ASTM, API and other recognized standard-setting bodies as are applicable in the opinion of the Independent Inspector and shall be expressed in G.S.V., U.S. Barrels @ 60 DF.

 

Section 6.8:                               Disputes Regarding Quality or Quantity.

 

(a)                                 Quantity Disputes.  If HECO or SELLER has reason to believe that the quantity of Product for a particular Delivery is incorrect, the Party shall, as promptly as reasonably possible, but no later than within thirty (30) Days of the date of Delivery, present the other Party with documentation supporting such determination, and the Parties will confer, in good faith, on the causes for the discrepancy and shall proceed to correct such causes and adjust the quantity, if justified, for the Delivery in question as specified in Section 6.6 (Pipeline Delivery) or Section 6.7 (Marine Delivery).

 

(b)                                 Quality Disputes.

 

(1)                                 SELLER shall provide HECO with a Certificate of Quality of each batch or Marine Shipment of Product Delivered by the SELLER.  For Marine Deliveries, such Certificate shall conform to the one provided to SELLER by its supplier of LSFO.  Final determination of quality shall be made as otherwise provided herein.

 

(2)                                 The official BTU Content determination shall be as reported in SELLER’s Certificate of Quality, provided that the arithmetic difference between SELLER’s and HECO’s laboratory results is equal to or less than the then existing ASTM reproducibility standard (currently 0.4 MJ/kg, which the Parties shall deem to be equivalent to a fixed standard of 60,000 BTU per Barrel) for test D-4868.  If the difference between SELLER’s and HECO’s determinations of BTU Content should fall outside the ASTM reproducibility standard for ASTM test D-4868 the sealed sample in the possession of the Independent Inspector shall be provided to a mutually acceptable independent laboratory for an official determination, which shall be binding upon the Parties.  SELLER and HECO shall share equally the costs of independent tests and determinations.

 

(3)                                 If SELLER or HECO has reason to believe that the quality of Product stated for a specific Delivery fails to conform to the Specification in Article IV (Quality) or Attachment  A of this Contract, that Party shall as promptly as reasonably possible, but no later than within thirty (30) Days of the later of the date of the completed Certificate of Quality or the date of the final determination of BTU Content, present the other Party with documents supporting such determination and the Parties will confer, in good faith, on the causes for the discrepancy and shall proceed to correct such causes and adjust the quality, if justified, for the Delivery in question.  In the event of an unresolved difference between SELLER and HECO, the sealed part of the representative sample in the possession of the Independent Inspector shall be provided to an independent laboratory for an official determination, which shall be final.  SELLER and HECO shall share equally the cost for such independent laboratory determination.

 

20












 

(4)                                 If the quality of the Product received by HECO fails to conform to the quality Specification in Article IV (Quality) or Attachment A of this Contract, both HECO and SELLER shall attempt to minimize the impact of any quality problem.  At HECO’s reasonable discretion, such efforts may include a Specification waiver if the use of the Product will not unreasonably cause harm to HECO.  Or, SELLER may attempt to remedy the quality problem by Delivering higher quality Product in a timely manner to produce a Specification quality blend in HECO’s storage tank(s) at HECO’s BPTF or at HECO’s Oahu generating plants.  If all such and similar efforts fail to resolve the quality problem, then HECO may return non-Specification Product to SELLER, in which case SELLER shall replace the non-Specification Product by Delivering an equal volume of HECO verified on-Specification Product to HECO in a timely manner.  Notwithstanding the preceding, HECO shall always have the right to refuse Delivery of any Product with prior written notice to SELLER or its permitted agents if HECO in good faith shall have reason to believe that the LSFO tendered for Delivery does not meet the Specification.  Such Notice shall provide a full explanation of the basis for HECO’s belief that the LSFO so tendered does not meet Contract Specifications, together with appropriate documentation of the testing that determined that it is off-Specification.  If SELLER disputes HECO’s analysis, then SELLER shall promptly notify HECO, and the Parties shall proceed to determine the quality in accordance with Section 6.8(b)(3) above.

SELLER shall furnish HSE Data to, and otherwise inform, SELLER’s nominated vessel of all such risks, and the ship’s master shall advise and instruct all crew, seamen and employees about the hazards, if any, associated with LSFO and the safe and proper methods of handling and storing LSFO.  Compliance by the SELLER with recommendations in HSE Data shall not excuse the SELLER from its obligations under Article XIII (Default) and this Section 11.4 (Material Safety Compliance).

Each Party in good faith shall provide written notice to the other of such actions and measures taken.

 

(c)                                  Notwithstanding any other provision in this Contract, the foregoing provisions shall be applicable only between SELLER and HECO and shall not affect, as between SELLER and HECO, any liability that either SELLER or HECO shall have to any third parties, including the State of Hawaii and the U.S. Government, if either Party shall have such liability.

GENERAL PROVISIONS

 

Section 16.1:        Waiver and Severability.  If any section or provision of this Contract or any exhibit or rider hereto is held by any court or other competent authority or be illegal, unenforceable or invalid, the remaining terms, provisions, rights and obligations of this Contract shall not be affected.  The failure of a Party hereunder to assert a right or enforce an obligation of the other Party shall not be deemed a waiver of such right or obligation.  In no event shall any waiver by either Party of any default under this Contract operate as a waiver of any further default.

 

Section 16.2:        Assignment.  This Contract shall extend to and be binding upon the successors and assigns of HECO and SELLER, provided, however, that no assignments of this Contract shall be made by HECO or SELLER without the prior written consent of the other Party.

Likewise, no Party nor any director, employee or agent of a Party shall enter into any business arrangement with any director, employee or agent of the other Party (or any affiliate), unless such person is acting for and on behalf of the other Party, without prior written notification thereof to the other Party.

 

Section 16.4:        Applicable Law/Venue.  This Contract shall be construed in accordance with, and all disputes arising hereunder shall be determined in accordance with, the law of the State of Hawaii, U.S.A.

Section 16.7:        Status of the Parties.  Nothing in this Contract shall be construed to constitute either Party as a joint venturer, co-venturer, joint lessor, joint operator or partner of the other.

Section 16.9:        Confidentiality and Non-Disclosure.

 

                (a)           Each Party may have a proprietary interest or other need for confidentiality in non-public information that may be furnished to the other pursuant to this Agreement (“Confidential Information”).  The Party disclosing such Confidential Information shall be referred to in this Section 16.9 (Confidentiality and Non-Disclosure) as the “Disclosing Party,” and the Party receiving such Confidential Information shall be referred to as the “Receiving Party.”

 

(b)           The Receiving Party will hold in confidence and, without the consent of the Disclosing Party, will not use, reproduce, distribute, transmit, or disclose, directly or indirectly, the Confidential Information of the Disclosing Party except as permitted herein.  The Receiving Party may only disclose the Confidential Information to its officers, directors, employees, professional advisors and independent contractors and consultants with a direct need to know the information for the implementation or exercise of rights and/or performance of obligations under or arising from this Contract, provided that such persons/entities (other than officers, directors and employees) are bound to confidentiality with terms and conditions that is no less restrictive than those contained in this Section 16.9 (Confidentiality and Non-Disclosure).  Without limiting the foregoing, the Receiving Party agrees that it will exercise at least the same standard of care in protecting the confidentiality of the Disclosing Party’s Confidential Information as it does with its own Confidential Information of a similar nature, but in any event, no less than reasonable care.

 

(c)           Confidential Information for purposes of this Contract shall not include information if and only to the extent that the Receiving Party establishes that the information: (i) is or becomes a part of the public domain through no act or omission of the Receiving Party; (ii) was in the Receiving Party’s lawful possession prior to the disclosure and had not been obtained by the Receiving Party either directly or indirectly from the Disclosing Party; or (iii) is lawfully disclosed to the Receiving Party by a third party without restriction on disclosure.  Confidential Information may also be disclosed by the Receiving Party pursuant to a requirement of a governmental agency, regulatory body or by operation of law, provided that the recipient shall disclose only that part of the Confidential Information that it is required to disclose and shall notify the Disclosing Party prior to such disclosure in a timely fashion in order to permit the Disclosing Party to lawfully attempt to prevent or restrict such disclosure should it so elect, and shall take all other reasonable and lawful measures to ensure the continued confidential treatment of the same by the party to which the Confidential Information is disclosed.

 

33











 

                (d)           Any provision herein to the contrary notwithstanding, HECO may disclose Confidential Information to the Commission, the Consumer Advocate, and/or any other governmental regulatory agency with notice to, but without need of prior consent by SELLER, provided that HECO takes reasonable steps to obtain approval to submit the same under seal or under other procedures designed to preserve the confidentiality of the Confidential Information.

 

Section 16.10       Financial Compliance.

 

                (a)           HECO and its parent company, Hawaiian Electric Industries (“HEI”), are required to comply with the requirements of (a) the accounting principles of Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) which have been codified in (i)Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 810, Consolidation (“FASB ASC 810”), (ii) FASB ASC 840 Leases (“FASB ASC 840”), and (iii) Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 (“SOX 404”), and (b) regulations established by the Securities and Exchange Commission, the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board, Emerging Issues Task Force or other governing agencies.    As of the date of this agreement, HECO has concluded that it is not required to apply the accounting consolidation requirements of FASB ASC 810 to SELLER because SELLER is excluded from the requirements of FASB ASC 810 under the “business scope exception.”  If HECO reasonably determines that there has been a change in circumstance (“Change in Circumstance”) that would require HECO to reassess the applicability of the accounting consolidation requirements of FASB ASC 810, and if applicable, to also make a determination as to whether HECO or its parent company are the primary beneficiaries of the SELLER, then the provisions of (b) below, shall apply.

 

                                (1)  Upon HECO’s request (“Request”), SELLER and HECO shall meet within five (5) business days of HECO’s Request to negotiate, in good faith, the information that SELLER will provide to HECO.  SELLER shall thereafter provide or cause to be provided to HECO on a timely basis, all information that SELLER agreed to provide, including but not limited to information that may be obtained in any audit referred to below (collectively, the “Information”), reasonably requested by HECO for purpose of permitting HECO and its parent company, (“HEI”), to comply with the requirements (initial and on-going) of (a) identifying variable interest entities and determining primary beneficiaries under the accounting principles of FASB ASC 810, (b) SOX 404, (c) FASB ASC 840 Leases, and (d) all clarifications, interpretations and revisions of and regulations implementing FASB ASC 810, SOX 404, and FASB ASC 840, Securities and Exchange Commission, the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board, Emerging Issues Task Force or other governing agencies.  In addition, if required by HECO in order to meet its compliance obligations, SELLER shall allow HECO or its independent auditor, to audit, to the extend reasonably required, SELLER’s financial records, including its system of internal controls over financial reporting; provided that HECO shall be responsible for all costs associated with the foregoing, including but not limited to SELLER’s reasonable internal costs.

 

                                (2)           If SELLER reasonably disagrees with HECO’s determination that a Change in Circumstance has occurred, SELLER shall notify HECO within five (5) business days of HECO’s Request.  HECO and SELLER shall then agree upon an independent third-party auditor within five (5) business days to resolve the dispute of whether a Change in Circumstance 

 

34











 

occurred and/or what Information SELLER shall provide to HECO.  If HECO and SELLER are unable to agree upon the independent third-party auditor within such five-business-day period, then HECO shall select the independent auditor, which shall be a regionally or nationally recognized independent accounting firm that is not the principal auditor or tax advisor for either party.  Within 30 days of appointment, the independent auditor shall render a decision.  The fees and costs of the independent auditor shall be paid equally by HECO and SELLER.

 

                (b)           HECO shall, and shall cause HEI to, maintain the confidentiality of the Information as provided in this Section16.10 (Financial Compliance). HECO may share the Information on a confidential basis with HEI and the independent auditors and attorneys for HECO and HEI.  (HECO, HEI, and their respective independent auditors and attorneys are collectively referred to in this Section 16.10 (Financial Compliance) as “Recipient.”).  If either HECO or HEI, in the exercise of their respective reasonable judgments, concludes that consolidation or financial reporting with respect to SELLER and/or this Contract is necessary, HECO and HEI each shall have the right to disclose such of the Information as HECO or HEI, as applicable, reasonably determines is necessary to satisfy applicable disclosure and reporting or other requirements and give SELLER prompt written notice thereof (in advance to the extent practicable under the circumstances).  If HECO or HEI disclose Information pursuant to the preceding sentence, HECO and HEI shall, without limitation to the generality of the preceding sentence, have the right to disclose Information to the Commission and the Division of Consumer Advocacy of the Department of Commerce and Consumer Affairs of the State of Hawaii (“Consumer Advocate”) in connection with the Commission’s rate making activities for HECO, and other HEI affiliated entities, provided that, if the scope or content of the Information to be disclosed to the Commission exceeds or is more detailed than that disclosed pursuant to the preceding sentence, such Information will not be disclosed until the Commission first issues a protective order to protect the confidentiality of such Information.  Neither HECO nor HEI shall use the Information for any purpose other than as permitted under this Section16.10 (Financial Compliance).

 

                (c)           In circumstances other than those addressed in the immediately preceding paragraph, if any Recipient becomes legally compelled under Applicable Law or by legal process (e.g., deposition, interrogatory, request for documents, subpoena, civil investigative demand or similar process) to disclose all or a portion of the Information, such Recipient shall undertake reasonable efforts to provide SELLER with prompt notice of such legal requirement prior to disclosure so that SELLER may seek a protective order or other appropriate remedy and/or waive compliance with the terms of this Section16.10 (Financial Compliance) .  If such protective order or other remedy is not obtained, or if SELLER waives compliance with the provisions of this Section 16.10 (Financial Compliance). Recipient shall furnish only that portion of the Information which it is legally required to so furnish and shall use reasonable efforts to obtain assurance that confidential treatment will be accorded to any disclosed material.

 

                (d)           The obligation of nondisclosure and restricted use imposed on each Recipient under this Section 16.10 (Financial Compliance)shall not extend to any portion(s) of the Information which (a) was known to such Recipient prior to receipt, or (b) without the fault of such Recipient is available or becomes available to the general public, or (c) is received by such Recipient from a third party not bound by an obligation or duty of confidentiality.

Section 16.11:  Miscellaneous.  No use of the pipelines, facilities or equipment used in connection with this Contract shall be construed as having been dedicated to public use and it is hereby acknowledged by the Parties that the owner of any pipelines used to transport Product under this Contract retains the rights to determine who, other than the Parties to this Contract, shall use said pipelines, facilities, and equipment.

 

Section 16.12:  Attorneys’ Fees.  If there is a dispute between the Parties and either Party institutes a lawsuit, arbitration, or other proceeding to enforce, declare, or interpret the terms of this Contract, the prevailing Party shall be awarded its reasonable attorneys fees and costs.

 

Section 16.13:  Offsets.  In the event that a Party owes the other Party (“Offsetting Party”) any amount under this Contract, the Offsetting Party owed such amount may at any time offset any and all amounts that are due and owed to the other Party against such amount that the other Party owes the Offsetting Party.  The Offsetting Party asserting an offset shall provide a prompt written explanation of the amount and the basis for the offset.

 

Section 16.14:  Counterparts.  This Contract may be executed in as many counterparts as desired by the Parties, any one of which shall have the force and effect of any original but all of which together shall constitute the same instrument.  This Contract may also be executed by exchange of executed copies via facsimile or other electronic means, such as PDF, in which case — but not as a condition to the validity of the Contract — each Party shall subsequently send the other Party by mail the original executed copy.  A Party’s signature transmitted by facsimile or similar electronic means shall be considered an “original” signature for purposes of this Contract.

 

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Parties hereto have executed this Contract on the day and year first above written.
