	The Employer may on written notice to the Consultant cede and delegate its rights and obligations under this contract to any of its subsidiaries or any of its present divisions or operations or other entity which may be converted into separate legal entities as a result of the restructuring of the Electricity Supply Industry and the Electricity Distribution Industry by the Government of the Republic of South Africa. 
	 

	Z3
	Change of Broad Based Black Economic Empowerment (B-BBEE) status
	 

	Z3.1
	Where a change in the Consultant's legal status, ownership or any other change to his business composition or business dealings results in a change to the Consultant's B-BBEE status, the Consultant notifies the Employer within seven days of the change.

If the Employer terminates in terms of this clause, the procedures on termination are those stated in core clause 91.

	Z4.1
	Any offer, payment, consideration, or benefit of any kind made by either Party, which constitutes or could be construed either directly or indirectly as an illegal or corrupt practice, as an inducement or reward for the award or in execution of this contract constitutes grounds for terminating the contract or taking any other action as appropriate against the offending Party (including civil or criminal action).
	 

	Z4.2
	The Employer may terminate the contract if the offending Party (or any member of the Consultant, where the offending Party is the Consultant, where the Consultant constitutes a joint venture, consortium or other unincorporated grouping of two or more persons or organisations) is found guilty by a competent court, administrative or regulatory body of participating in illegal or corrupt practices.


Such practices include making of offers, payments, considerations, or benefits of any kind or otherwise, whether in connection with any procurement process or contract with either Party or other people or organisations and including in circumstances where the Consultant, if the offending Party is the Consultant, or any such member is removed from the approved vendor data base of the Employer as a consequence of such practice.

	Z5.1
	Neither Party discloses or makes any information (the Confidential Information) arising from or in connection with this contract available to Others. This undertaking does not, however, apply to information which at the time of disclosure or thereafter, without default on the part of the pertinent Party, enters the public domain or to information which was already in the possession of the pertinent Party at the time of disclosure (evidenced by written records in existence at that time).  Should a Party disclose information to Others in terms of clause 23.1, that Party ensures that the provisions of this clause are complied with by the recipient.
	 

	Z5.2
	If a Party is uncertain about whether any such information is confidential, it is to be regarded as such until notified otherwise by the other Party.
	 

	Z5.3
	In the event that a Party is, at any time, required by law to disclose any such information which is required to be kept confidential, such Party, to the extent permitted by law prior to disclosure, notifies the other Party so that an appropriate protection order and/or any other action can be taken if possible, prior to any disclosure.  In the event that such protective order is not, or cannot, be obtained, then the disclosing Party may disclose that portion of the information which it is required to be disclosed by law and uses reasonable efforts to obtain assurances that confidential treatment will be afforded to the information so disclosed.

	Insert a new clause W1.5 to dispute resolution option W1:


Where there is an ambiguity in the Scope and the Parties do not agree whether an issue falls within or outside of the Scope, either Party may refer the matter for determination by an expert.  Such expert (who shall be appropriately qualified) ("Expert") shall be as agreed by the Parties or, failing agreement within 5 days, as appointed by the AFSA, who must appoint an independent and appropriately qualified Expert. 


If the Expert determines that the relevant matter falls within the Scope then the Consultant shall execute the work required at no extra cost to the Employer.


If the Expert determines that the relevant matter does not fall within the Scope the Parties shall attempt to agree a price for the execution of the work required.  Absent an agreement on the price within 15 days the relevant matter shall be omitted from the Scope subject thereto that any Party who disagrees with the initial determination leading to a discussion on price, and a possible consequential omission from the Scope, has the opportunity to refer the matter for resolution in terms of option W1. 


Prior to making his determination, the Expert shall have the right, upon giving reasonable notice, to convene meetings with either or both of the Parties at which he may require either of them to clarify and explain their respective proposals.  Each Party may present its own expert opinion or evidence at such meetings.


The determination of an Expert is not final and binding and either Party may institute the dispute resolution process provided for in option W1.

Annexure A:    Notes to Consultants


This is guidance to Consultants to assist their decision making about what cover to arrange in the insurance to be provided by the Consultant.  The guidance is not part of the contract and the Employer carries no liability for it.


		
	1.
	For the purpose of works contracts, insurance provided by Eskom (the Employer) has been arranged on the basis of “project” or “contract” value, where the value is the total of the Prices at Completion of the whole of the works including VAT. 




A “project” is a collection of contracts or work packages to be undertaken as part of a single identified capital expansion or refurbishment of a particular asset or facility. 


A “contract” is a single contract not linked to or being part of a “project”.


		
	2.
	There are three main “formats” of cover and deductible structure; Format A, Format B and Format Dx. 




Format A is for a project or contract value less than or equal to R350M (three hundred and fifty million Rand) inclusive of VAT. 


Format B is for a project or contract value greater than R350M .(three hundred and fifty million Rand) inclusive of VAT.


In the case of contracts / packages within a project:


		
	•
	For a contract / package of R50M which is part of a R400M project, Format B will apply


		
	•
	For a contract / package of R250M which is part of a R6 billion project, Format B will apply;


		
	•
	For a contract / package of R120M which is part of a R350M project Format A will apply;




For a contract which is not part of a project the same limits apply:


		
	•
	For a contract of R50M, Format A will apply


		
	•
	For a contract of R355M, Format B will apply.




Format Dx applies only to Distribution Division projects and contracts. If a Distribution Division project or contract exceeds the Format A limit, the Eskom Insurance Management Services [EIMS] need to be contacted for advice on how to formulate the insurance cover.  Cover and deductibles for Distribution Division are per the relevant policy available on the internet web link given below.   


Format A generally applies to Transmission Division projects and contracts. If a Transmission Division project or contract exceeds the Format A limit, the Eskom Insurance Management Services [EIMS] need to be contacted for advice on how to formulate the insurance cover.


		
	3.
	Further information and full details of all Eskom provided policies and procedures may be obtained from: 




http://www.eskom.co.za/live/content.php?Item_ID=9248


		
	4.
	The Insurance which the Consultant is to provide against his liability for claims made against him arising out of his failure to use reasonable skill and care (first row in the Insurance Table of clause 81.1 in the PSC3) should also indemnify the Consultant for those sums which he could become legally liable to pay as damages arising from any claim first made against him and reported to Insurers some time after Completion of the whole of the services.   Hence the Consultant needs to ensure that his cover is in place at least until all his liabilities under the contract have expired.  Such claims could arise out of any negligent act, error or omission committed or alleged to have been committed by the Consultant in the conduct of professional services in connection with the contract.

ESKOM HOLDINGS SOC LTD        CONTRACT NUMBER 4600043033
Demand Response Aggregation Pilot Programme                 




7    Termination


7.1    Upon termination for whatever reason, all licenses granted hereunder shall cease to be effective and LICENSEE shall immediately cease all use of any affected Comverge Software, Documentation and Comverge Confidential Information. Within fourteen (14) days of the date of termination or discontinuance of this Agreement for any reason whatsoever, LICENSEE shall return the Comverge Software, derivative works and all copies thereof, in whole or in part, all related Documentation and all copies thereof, and any other Confidential Information in its possession. LICENSEE shall furnish Comverge with a certificate signed by a duly authorized representative of LICENSEE verifying that the same has been done.


7.2    Termination is not an exclusive remedy and all other remedies will be available to Comverge whether or not termination occurs.


8    Indemnification for Infringement
Comverge shall, at its expense, defend or settle any claim, action or allegation brought against LICENSEE that the Comverge Software infringes any patent, copyright, trade secret or other proprietary right of any third party and shall pay any final judgment awarded or settlements entered into; the LICENSEE must take all reasonable steps to give prompt written notice to Comverge of any such claim, action or allegation of infringement, as soon as the LICENSEE becomes aware of it and gives Comverge the authority to proceed as contemplated herein. Failure to notify Comverge or notifying Comverge later, but still within a reasonable time, will not prevent the LICENSEE from invoking the indemnity so long as Comverge is not prejudiced by the delay.  Comverge will have the exclusive right to defend any such claim, action, or allegation and make settlements thereof at its own discretion, and LICENSEE may not settle or compromise such claim, action or allegation, except with prior written consent of Comverge. LICENSEE shall give such assistance and information as Comverge may reasonably require to settle or oppose such claims.  Comverge will inform the LICENSEE of any settlement.
 
8.2    In the event any such infringement, claim, action, or allegation is brought or threatened Comverge may, at its sole option and expense:


8.2.1    Procure for LICENSEE the right to continue use of the Comverge Software or the infringing portion thereof;


8.2.2    Modify, amend or replace the Comverge Software or infringing part thereof with other software having substantially the same or better capabilities to the extent it is commercially practicable.


8.3.    The foregoing obligations shall not apply to the extent the infringement arises as a result of (i) modifications to the Comverge Software made by any party other than Comverge or Comverge's authorized representative, (ii) a combination of the Comverge Software with third party products or services not provided or approved by Comverge, (iii) specifications solely provided by or on behalf of LICENSEE; (iv) the failure by LICENSEE to use corrections recommended by Comverge which Comverge identifies to LICENSEE as fixing or preventing infringement; or (v) intellectual property provided by or on behalf of LICENSEE to Comverge for use in connection with the Software. This Section 8 states the entire liability of Comverge with respect to infringement of any patent, copyright, trade secret or other proprietary right.


9    Warranty and Limitation of Liability
Comverge warrants to LICENSEE that the Comverge Software, and any replaced or remedied software, will perform in substantial accordance with the Documentation and is fit for the purpose described in the Scope and Documentation, even if customized for LICENSEE, for a period of *** from it having been made available to the LICENSEE for use. If the Comverge Software does not perform as warranted, Comverge shall undertake to correct the non-conforming part of the Comverge Software, or if correction is reasonably not possible, replace such non-conforming part of the Comverge Software to the extent it is commercially practicable.  The foregoing Warranty shall not apply to the extent that the Comverge Software is used or interfaced with other software, data or operating systems which create the issue, if the Software had been tampered with or misused, or if the Comverge Software has been modified in a manner not authorized by Comverge.  


THE FOREGOING ARE LICENSEE'S SOLE AND EXCLUSIVE REMEDIES FOR BREACH OF THIS WARRANTY, but the LICENSEE is not prevented from pursuing a claim for damages, if appropriate.  


The warranty set forth above is made to and for the benefit of LICENSEE only and will be enforceable against Comverge only if:


9.1.1    The Comverge Software has been properly installed. This condition only applies if Comverge did             not install the software;

	The software has been used at all times in accordance with the Documentation and this Agreement.  




		
	9.1.3
	All modifications, alterations or additions to the Comverge Software, if any, have been made by Comverge; and

9.2    Except as set forth above, Comverge makes no warranties, whether express or implied, or statutory, regarding or relating to the Comverge Software or the Documentation, or any materials or services furnished or provided to LICENSEE under this Agreement.  Specifically, Comverge does not warrant that the Comverge Software will be error free or will perform in an uninterrupted manner. To the maximum extent allowed by law, Comverge specifically disclaims all implied warranties of merchantability and fitness for a particular purpose (even if Comverge had been informed of such purpose), but save as provided for in this Agreement, with respect to the Comverge Software, Documentation and support and with respect to the use of any of the foregoing.  Comverge shall not be subject to any indirect or consequential loss as defined in the NEC 3 Professional Services Contract for the DRAPP.


9.3    Comverge's maximum aggregate liability (whether in contract, tort or any other form of liability) for damages or loss, howsoever arising or caused, whether or not arising from Comverge's negligence but except in respect of the indemnity provided as per clause 8 above, shall in no event be greater than the the limitation of liability as found in NEC 3 Professional Services Contract for the DRAPP, save that in the event such damage or loss is related to support, such recoverable loss or damage for that particular event will not be greater than the ***.


9.4    No employee, agent, representative or affiliate of Comverge has authority to bind Comverge to any oral representations or warranty concerning the Comverge Software. Any written representation or warranty not expressly contained in this Agreement is unenforceable.


10    Embedded Reporting/Compliance Routine; Audit Rights/Quarterly Reports
10.1     The Comverge Software contains or may contain in future versions an automated reporting routine that will automatically identify and analyze certain aspects of Comverge Software use and performance, as well as the operator and operating environment, and among other things, transmit electronic reports to Comverge. Comverge will provide LICENSEE, on request, with a description of these routines and LICENSEE agrees not to disrupt or interfere with them without the prior written agreement of Comverge. Comverge will be entitled to inspect the installation and configuration of the Comverge Software from time to time on reasonable notice. 


10.2      LICENSEE shall keep and maintain full, accurate and detailed records regarding the License and the number of Subscribers of the Comverge Software.  Comverge or its representatives shall be entitled to review and audit such books and records and/or LICENSEE's compliance with the provisions of this Agreement from time to time during normal business hours upon reasonable notice to LICENSEE, which notice shall either be personally delivered by rapid courier service or mailed by certified or registered mail to a party at its address as set forth herein.


10.3 Commencing ninety (90) days from the Effective Date, LICENSEE will provide Comverge with calendar quarterly reports setting forth the total number of Subscribers.  LICENSEE will provide Comverge with all such reports within thirty (30) days of the end of each calendar quarter.


11    Miscellaneous
11.1    Ownership of Comverge Software, Documentation.  LICENSEE acknowledges and agrees that Comverge owns all proprietary rights, including patent, copyright, trade secret, trademark and other such proprietary rights, in and to the Comverge Software and any corrections, remedial modifications, maintenance upgrades, updates or other modifications, including custom modifications, or derivative works thereof, whether made by Comverge, LICENSEE or any third party.


11.2    Force Majeure. Neither Party will incur any liability to the other on account of any loss or damage resulting from any delay or failure to perform all or any part of this Agreement if such delay or failure is caused, in whole or in part, by event, occurrences, or causes beyond its control and without negligence of the parties. Such events, occurrences or causes will include, without limitation, acts of God, strikes, lockouts, riots, acts of war, earthquakes, fire and explosions, but the ability to meet financial obligations is expressly excluded.


11.3    Severability. If any term, condition or provision in this Agreement is found to be invalid, unlawful or unenforceable to any extent, the Parties shall endeavor in good faith to agree to such amendments that will preserve, as far as possible, the intentions expressed in this Agreement. If the Parties fail to agree on such an amendment, such invalid term,

condition or provision will be severed from the remaining terms, conditions and provisions, which will continue to be valid and enforceable to the fullest extent permitted by law.


11.4    Standard Terms of LICENSEE.  With the exception of Task Orders pursuant to the NEC 3 Professional Services Contract for the DRAPP, no terms, provisions or conditions of any purchase order, acknowledgement or other business form that LICENSEE may use in connection with the acquisition or licensing of the Comverge Software will have any effect on the rights, duties or obligations of the parties under, or other otherwise modify, this Agreement, regardless of any failure of Comverge to object to such terms, provisions, or conditions.


11.5    Public/Announcements/Publicity. LICENSEE and Comverge agree to cooperate regarding public relations activities, including public announcements, joint press releases, and other activities to be mutually agreed.  Neither Party will perform such activities without the prior written consent of the other Party, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld.  Provided, however, that upon execution of this Agreement, Comverge shall have the right to issue a press release announcing that the Parties have entered into the Agreement without obtaining the prior written consent of LICENSEE.

ARTICLE II: SUPPORT AND MAINTENANCE SERVICES


Section 2.01 - Comverge's Obligation to Provide Support and Maintenance Services: Provided that LICENSEE is not in breach of the NEC Professional Services Contract for the DRAPP and subject to the provisions contained herein, Comverge will use reasonable commercial efforts to perform Computer Software, discovery, root cause analysis and recommended solutions for reported Errors and upload management of Updates, Error Corrections and Workarounds (as defined herein and purchased by LICENSEE) (collectively the “Support and Maintenance Services”).  In addition, Comverge will provide other services outside of the scope of Section 2.04(a) and Section 2.04(b) of this Schedule A2, on a per request basis, as provided in Section 4.01 of this Schedule A2.  


Section 2.02 - Reporting Errors:  LICENSEE may initiate Support and Maintenance Services by placing a telephone call to Comverge Technical Support (“Comverge TS”) at (888)-565-5525 or by e-mail at techsupport@comverge.com; for Network Down LICENSEE Service Requests (defined in Section 2.03(a) below) the preferred method of initiation is by telephone.  Normal business hours for Comverge TS are Monday through Friday from 12:00 pm RSA to 8:00 pm RSA, including federal holidays if such holidays are not also public holidays in the Republic of South Africa (“Hours”).  Comverge shall use commercially reasonable efforts to provide support for times outside of those provided herein.

Demand Response Aggregation Pilot Programme                 






  
c.    “Medium Priority CSR” refers to an Error affecting Comverge Software functionality that does not affect the ability of Comverge Software to function substantially as intended.
  
d.    “Technical Inquiry” refers to a request for a general understanding of particular Comverge Software functionality.  Technical Inquiries shall receive the lowest priority.


Section 2.04 - Support and Maintenance Service Requests:  Comverge shall provide telephonic Support and Maintenance Services for LICENSEE, as set out in the Scope and will receive payment as per the Contract Data.  


The Support and Maintenance Services are as follows:

(i)    Comverge TS receives LICENSEE call.  Comverge TS will respond within 4 hours of the call being logged, in the following manner: 


		
	•
	Confirm all details of the call with LICENSEE;


		
	•
	Log the call and issue a unique reference ID;


		
	•
	Discuss the problem with LICENSEE;


		
	•
	Determine the priority of the Error according to the definitions above; and


		
	•
	Present the actions to be taken.




(ii)    Remote access resolution process. If possible, Comverge will diagnose the reported Error remotely and attempt to determine the issue causing the Error.  If the issue can be resolved remotely, Comverge will update LICENSEE with details of the proposed resolution; resolve the issue causing the Error as allowed by LICENSEE and request that the CSR be closed.  LICENSEE will confirm to Comverge that the issue causing the Error has been resolved and the CSR will be closed. After diagnosis, if it is determined that the issue causing the Error is not associated with the Comverge Software, and thus outside of the scope of Support and Maintenance Services, or to the extent the agreed upon hours for Support and Maintenance Services have already been exceeded, then Comverge will charge LICENSEE, and LICENSEE agrees to pay, for the services that were performed, in accordance with Section 4.01 hereof. 


(i)Commitment to Resolution and Closure.  Comverge TS will continue diagnosing reported Errors in accordance with Section 2.04(a) (ii) and 2.04(a)(iii), with management escalation in accordance with Section 2.05 below, until the Error is resolved. 


(v)    Escalation process.  Comverge will escalate resolution of any Error in accordance with Section 2.05 below.  The purpose of the escalation process is to progressively inform and involve a higher level of Comverge management in an effort to ensure that all reasonable actions are being taken to resolve the Error.  Comverge TS will notify LICENSEE at each escalation point.


(vi)    Status reports. Comverge will provide LICENSEE with status reports describing the actions being taken and the progress being made towards Error resolution.  The status reports will be provided at each escalation point and, once the highest level of escalation has been reached, on a daily basis for a Network Down CSR, a bi-weekly basis for a Top Priority CSR and a weekly basis for a Medium Priority CSR,.  


		
	b.

(i)    Comverge TS receives LICENSEE call.  Comverge TS will respond in the following manner:

(ii)    Technical Inquiry Process. Technical assistance and/or escalation will continue until the Technical Inquiry has been resolved. If the Technical Inquiry leads to an Error discovery, the Error will be logged and the CSR procedures described in Section 2.04(a) will be followed.  If, in Comverge's discretion it is deemed necessary, details of the Technical Inquiry and the Comverge TS findings will be forwarded to the Comverge Professional Service Group who will contact LICENSEE with a further plan of action.  


(iii)    Escalation. Comverge TS will escalate Technical Inquiries as considered necessary, and in accordance with Section 2.05 below, within applicable departments of Comverge, until the Inquiry is resolved. 


(iv)    Status reports. Comverge will provide LICENSEE with status reports describing the actions being taken and the progress being made towards resolution of the Technical Inquiry.  The status reports will be provided in intervals mutually agreed upon with LICENSEE. 


Section 2.05 - Escalation:  An unresolved CSR or if necessary, Technical Inquiry, will be escalated within Comverge according to Schedule B.  Escalation times can be advanced at the request of LICENSEE or at the discretion of Comverge TS, or can be deferred by written acknowledgement of LICENSEE. Escalation stops when an agreed upon course of action for resolution has been reached with LICENSEE.   In the event that the agreed upon course of action for resolution does not resolve the CSR or Technical Inquiry, the escalation resumes from the point where placed on hold. 


Section 2.06 - Conditions to Support and Maintenance Services:  Comverge shall be obligated to provide Support and Maintenance Services, conditioned upon: (a) the receipt of a phone call or e-mail by Comverge TS from LICENSEE stating with reasonable accuracy the CSR issue or Technical Inquiry, (b) LICENSEE's satisfaction of all of its duties and obligations under the of the NEC Professional Services Contract for the DRAPP (c) the existence of an unaltered version of Comverge Software, with the exception of alterations performed by Comverge, or a Comverge agent authorized in writing by Comverge to perform such Comverge Software alterations, and (d) the existence of  Comverge Software that has not been  damaged by LICENSEE abuse or misuse, or database schema changes including but not limited to table, field and index changes or by any other actions whatsoever, including acts of God, not attributable to Comverge.
