 SPECIFICATION AND FEED UTILITIES 
 The given figures are based on the performance of the Westfield Gasifier during the demonstration programme. The figures are contingent on start up and operation of the
Westfield Gasifier being in accordance with the Procedures. 
 The reference coal will be “Kellingley singles”. If the Licensee decides to use
another coal,—provided that the other coal’s properties (proximate and ultimate analyses caking and swelling properties, ash analysis etc) with respect to gasification are reasonably similar to Kellingley singles—new guarantee figures
will be provided by BGL which shall be adjusted from the guarantee figures herein stated only as is reasonably necessary to reflect the different coal. 
  

	1.	Description of the Licensed Plant 

 The Licensed
Plant is designed to produce l00MWth (nominal) crude fuel gas from coal (based on HHV of all combustible gaseous constituents. 
 The feed
coal is to be in the size range 2 to 1/4 inches and is to be prepared by screening out the fine coal to less than 10% by weight less than 1/4 inch.

 APPENDIX E 
 PROCESS GUARANTEES 
 Guarantee figures and average consumption figures during guarantee testing are based upon
the calculated consumptions given in Appendix C. The figures are based upon modifications to the Licensed Plant if any being considered by BGL in accordance with Article 8.5 and may require change in line with actual design figures based on the
actual feedstock, its composition and plant design parameters. 
  

	1.	Capacity 

 Cooled crude gas production capacity measured at 40°C from the 7 1/2 ft diameter gasifier operated at 350
p.s.i.g. pressure will be at least l00MWth, based on HHV of all combustible materials, for the feedstock as specified. 
  

	2.	Plant Efficiency 

 For the coal gas production
capacity as specified under 1 the following values, based upon the Kellingley reference coal will be applicable:- 
  

	 	•	 	 The cold gas efficiency will not be less than 85% based on HHV. 

  

	 	•	 	 The cold gas efficiency is defined as potential heat in the cooled crude gas divided by the potential heat in the raw coal, all based on HHV.

  

	 	•	 	 Oxygen (as 100%) consumption, will not be in excess of 222,000 standard cubic feet per hour. 

  

	3.	Plant Operability 

 Plant operability under test run
conditions, including tar recycle both to the top of the fuel bed and through the tuyeres, shall display behaviour of the fuel bed as is typical of that to be expected with fixed bed operation of a slagging gasifier with respect to transient
phenomena. 
  

	4.	Tolerances 

 Agreements on margins of error in
measurements will be determined by the Parties prior to the test run period(s). 
  

 - 43 - 

	5.	Test Run 

 The evaluation of the capacity guarantee
will be established from the operation at a minimum average load of 90% of the Licensed Plant over a continuous five day period with any two test run periods of 24 hours duration having to be run at l00Mwth. Evaluation of cold gas efficiency and
oxygen consumption guarantee figures will be based on one of the above two test run periods. Ramp up and ramp down operating periods at the start and at the end of the five day test run are excluded. Operating time prior to any down time not
attributable to BGL is credited for aggregation with further operating time thereafter. 
  

 - 44 - 

 APPENDIX F 
 LIQUIDATED DAMAGES 
  

	1.	Subject to Article 8.1 and 8.2, if the BGL Process Guarantees set forth in Appendix E hereof are not fulfilled after following the procedures set out in Appendix D, then liquidated
damages shall be payable by BGL to the Licensee calculated in accordance with the following schedule and conditions:- 

  

	 	•	 	 £20,000 for every full 2% below the guaranteed value of l00MWth; and 

  

	 	•	 	 £12,000 for every full 2% above the guaranteed oxygen figure; and 

  

	 	•	 	 £20,000 for every full 2% below the guaranteed figure of 85% cold gas efficiency. 

 In such case, the Licensee shall be entitled to deduct the amount of such liquidated damages from the £800,000, balance of the Licence Fee and
within seven days following the completion of repeat test run referred to in paragraph 14 of Appendix D shall pay the remainder of the balance to the Licensor together with all other amounts then due to the Licensor. 
  

	2.	Provided that if any of the following circumstances occur:- 

  

	 	(i)	capacity fails to meet 80% of the guaranteed value of l00MWth; or 

  

	 	(ii)	oxygen rate is greater than 120% of the guaranteed oxygen figure; or 

  

	 	(iii)	cold gas efficiency falls below 70%; 

 then the BGL Process
Guarantees shall be regarded as not met and British Gas shall not be entitled to any payment of the £800,000 balance of the Licence Fee or the £6,750,000 referred to in the Supplemental Letter Agreement.
