Gaylord Entertainment Company (the “Company”)

Summary of Director and Executive Officer Compensation

I. Director Compensation. Directors who are employees of the Company do not receive additional
compensation for serving as directors of the Company. The following table sets forth current rates
of cash compensation for the Company’s non-employee directors.

	 	 	 	 	 
	Retainers	 	2009
	Board retainer
	 	$	50,000	 
	Audit chair retainer
	 	$	20,000	 
	Audit member retainer
	 	$	10,000	 
	Human Resources/Nominating and Corporate Governance chair retainer
	 	$	12,500	 
	Human Resources/Nominating and Corporate Governance member retainer
	 	$	7,500	 

In addition, each director receives a fee of $1,500 for attending each meeting of the Board of
Directors. Pursuant to the Company’s Deferred Compensation Plan for Non-Employee Directors,
non-employee directors may defer these fees into this plan until their retirement or resignation
from the Board of Directors. Upon election to the Board of Directors, non-employee directors also
receive a one-time grant of 3,000 restricted stock units under the 2006 Omnibus Incentive Plan,
which vest on the first anniversary of the date of grant. In addition, each non-management
director receives an annual grant of 1,500 restricted stock units under the 2006 Omnibus Incentive
Plan, which vest on the first anniversary of the date of grant. All directors are reimbursed for
expenses incurred in attending meetings.

II. Executive Officer Compensation. The following table sets forth the 2009 annual base salaries
and the fiscal 2008 performance bonuses provided to the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, Chief
Financial Officer and three other most highly compensated executive officers (the “Named Executive
Officers”).

	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 
	 	 	 	 	 	 	Fiscal 2008
	Executive Officer	 	2009 Salary	 	Bonus Amount
	Colin V. Reed
	 	$	910,000	 	 	$	400,000	 
	David C. Kloeppel
	 	$	625,000	 	 	$	200,000	 
	John Caparella
	 	$	500,000	 	 	$	0	 
	Carter R. Todd
	 	$	300,000	 	 	$	55,000	 
	Mark Fioravanti
	 	$	275,000	 	 	$	50,000	 

The 2009
salary levels represent no increase from 2008 levels. The above-described Fiscal 2008 Bonus Amounts for each of the Named Executive Officers were paid
pursuant to the Company’s cash bonus program under the Company’s 2006 Omnibus Incentive Plan. The
Company’s Human Resources Committee used its discretion to reduce the earned bonus amounts by 10%
to the numbers shown above in light of the economy and other factors.

 

 

The following table sets forth the 2009 bonus targets as a percentage of 2009 base salary set for
the Company’s Named Executive Officers:

	 	 	 	 	 
	 	 	Fiscal 2009
	Executive Officer	 	Bonus Target
	Colin V. Reed
	 	 	100	%
	David C. Kloeppel
	 	 	90	%
	John Caparella
	 	 	75	%
	Carter R. Todd
	 	 	60	%
	Mark Fioravanti
	 	 	60	%

The Fiscal 2009 bonuses will be determined based upon the achievement of certain goals and Company
performance criteria, and if earned, will be paid pursuant to the Company’s cash bonus program
under the Company’s 2006 Omnibus Incentive Plan.

The Named
Executive Officers also are eligible to receive long-term incentive awards pursuant to the Company’s
stockholder-approved equity incentive plans, but no such awards were
made in February 2009.

III. Additional Information. The foregoing information is summary in nature. Additional
information regarding director and Named Executive Officer compensation will be provided in the
Company’s proxy statement to be filed in connection with the 2009 annual meeting of stockholders.EX-10.1

inconsistent with normal weather patterns) and do not otherwise entitle Contractor to a Change,
and Contractor shall not be entitled to a Change in the Milestone Performance Schedule or the
Contract Price on account of such normal hindrances and delays of the type that commonly occur in
connection with construction projects, even if such
hindrances and delays are beyond Contractor’s control. This Section 3.4(b) is not
intended to waive or supersede any other provision of this Agreement.

          (c) Unless otherwise mutually agreed, Contractor shall provide to Owner for its review a
detailed schedule for performance of the Work (the “Project Schedule”) on or before the

to establish a mutually acceptable final Project Schedule that will include the work to be
performed by Owner and its other contractors. The Project Schedule shall be updated by Contractor
from time to time as provided in Section 3.5(h)(iii). However, no changes to the
Milestone Performance Schedule shall be made without Owner’s prior written consent, which shall be
documented by a written amendment to this Agreement.

Page 23

 

          (d) Contractor shall provide to Owner a full description of each System (including a list of
Equipment). Each System description to be supplied by Contractor will be sufficient for Owner to
develop and perform operator training for each System and the Units. Each System description will
be delivered to Owner on a schedule to be established by mutual written agreement of Owner’s
Project Director and Contractor’s Project Director. The mutually agreed upon schedule for
delivery of each System description shall support the fuel load date for each Unit, and will
support the Owner’s operator training requirements to support the startup and operation of each
Unit in accordance with the Owner’s training schedule.

          (e) Turnover of each System will be in accordance with the Project Schedule as provided in
Section 12.1. It is the intent of the Parties that substantially all Equipment shall be
included as part of one System or another, but shall not be included in more than one System. For
Systems that are part of the Non-Standard Plant, Owner’s Project Director and Contractor’s Project
Director shall work together to establish System definitions that will promote efficient and
expeditious prosecution of the Work. It is the intent of the Parties that, to the greatest extent
possible, each System will include Equipment that works together to perform specific function(s)
within the Facility, or that are otherwise mechanically integrated.

          (f) If the actual progress of the Work or the Project Schedule shows that completion of a
Performance Milestone is more than [***] behind the Milestone Performance Schedule for reasons
other than an Owner caused delay or an event of Force Majeure, Owner’s Project Director may
require Contractor to submit a written acceleration plan and
supplementary schedules. Such written plan and supplementary schedules shall be presented to
Owner as soon as reasonably practical, not to exceed thirty (30) Days from the date of Owner’s
request, shall be subject to mutual agreement by the Parties, and shall be a reasonable
acceleration plan for timely completing the Facility consistent with the Milestone Performance
Schedule to the extent reasonably practical. Such plan shall contain the information and level of
detail that can reasonably be obtained within the specified time period. If the Parties cannot
reach agreement on the acceleration plan, the Parties may submit the disagreement to the DRB and
shall be bound to accept and implement the DRB’s decision. Contractor shall diligently undertake
the actions of such plan in accordance with the requirement of such acceleration plan and this
Section 3.4(f). If Contractor provides an acceleration plan that is mutually agreed to by
the Parties or approved by the DRB, and Contractor is diligently undertaking the actions of such
plan in accordance with the requirements of such acceleration plan and this Section
3.4(f), then the delay shall not constitute a separate event of default and shall not provide
a right to terminate this Agreement; however, if Contractor does not, present a written
acceleration plan and supplementary construction schedules that are mutually agreed to by the
Parties or approved by the DRB as required by this Section 3.4(f) that provides reasonable
assurance that compliance with the Milestone Performance Schedule will be established to the
extent reasonably practical, or if Contractor fails to diligently undertake the actions in
accordance with such written acceleration plan and supplementary construction schedules, Owner may
terminate this Agreement under Section 22.2. The failure of Owner’s Project Director to
request a written plan and supplementary construction schedules shall not relieve Contractor of
its obligation to ensure the rate of progress required by this Agreement. [***].

          (g) If Contractor is in material breach of this Agreement and fails to cure the breach within
[***] if such material breach involves performing Work relating to the systems, components, or
structures that are actively engaged in the generation of electricity) following Notice of such
breach or, if such breach is not capable of being cured within such [***] period, as applicable,
such longer period as is reasonably necessary so long as Contractor has given Owner a detailed
written plan within such [***] period, as applicable, describing how the breach is to be cured
that is reasonably acceptable to Owner, and further provided that Contractor has failed to
commence the cure within such [***] period, as applicable, and thereafter fails to diligently
pursue the cure in accordance with the reasonably acceptable written plan, Owner may at its option
perform the applicable Work or portion(s) thereof required in order to achieve the timely
completion of the Facility in accordance with the Milestone Performance Schedule to the extent
reasonably practical, and Contractor shall pay Owner’s backcharges for such Work. The Parties
shall negotiate in good faith to make any appropriate modifications to this Agreement that will
result from Owner’s performance of such Work, including the work procedures and the cost of such
Work as well as any appropriate modifications to Delay Liquidated Damages, Performance Guarantees,
and Warranties under this Agreement. Such terms and conditions and Agreement modifications shall
be set forth in a Change Order pursuant to Article 9.

          (h) The exclusive remedies for delays in the performance of the Work are set forth in
Section 3.4(f), 3.4(g), Article 13, Section 22.2 and Exhibit
H, subject to the limitations set forth in Section 37.2.

described in Exhibit H. Unless otherwise mutually agreed upon by the
Parties, Contractor shall update the Project Schedule on a monthly basis for the
purpose of illustrating progress on the Work and status of critical path activities,
and shall provide a copy to Owner, which may be provided electronically. Any
changes to the Project Schedule that affect Owner’s Scope of Work shall be subject
to the approval of Owner. No changes to the Project Schedule shall excuse
Contractor from its obligation to perform the Work in accordance with the Milestone
Performance Schedule, which can only be changed by a written amendment to this
Agreement.

          (i) Full Disclosure. Contractor acknowledges that Owner is relying upon the
expertise, experience, education, knowledge, research, development, testing, quality control and
quality assurance of Contractor and its Subcontractors to provide the Work. If Contractor
encounters a condition, issue or other concern at another AP1000 project that is reasonably
expected to impact the cost, schedule, quality or functionality of the Facility being constructed

Page 27

 

pursuant to this Agreement, then Contractor will provide Owner with information regarding such
condition, issue or other concern subject to appropriate confidentiality limitations and
protections. To the extent that a condition, issue or concern at the Facility is reasonably
expected to impact cost, schedule, quality or functionality at another AP1000 project, the
Contractor may provide the owner of such other AP1000 project with information regarding such
condition subject to appropriate confidentiality limitations, protections and conditions that are
reasonably acceptable to Owner.

          (j) Tie-ins and Connections. Contractor and Owner acknowledge that the Facility will
tie into other structures and systems that are Owner’s responsibility to supply and construct.
Contractor and Owner agree to coordinate all tie-ins and connection to such Owner supplied and
constructed structures and systems, consistent with mutually agreed upon procedures and the
Project Schedule. The Parties agree that some of the Equipment will be shop fabricated and shop
sub-assembled to obtain the most economical fabricated and installed cost for the Facility.

          (k) Owner Information. Contractor shall not begin any part of the Work which
requires Contractor to perform in accordance with Owner-provided information until such
information has been furnished to Contractor. Owner acknowledges that Contractor is relying upon
the expertise, experience, education, knowledge, research, development, testing,
quality control and quality assurance of Owner and its other contractors to provide the
Owner’s Scope of Work and the Owner-provided information. Contractor shall check the
Owner-provided dimensions, elevations and quantities that are relevant to the interfacing or
integration of Owner-provided information or facilities with the Work of Contractor. If
Contractor becomes aware of any material error or omission in the Owner-provided information or
facilities or Contractor becomes aware of a material discrepancy, contradiction or ambiguity
between the provisions of this Agreement and the Owner-provided information, or between the
Owner-provided information and the conditions at the Site or Nearby Work Areas, then Contractor
shall notify Owner of such error, omission, discrepancy, contradiction or ambiguity. Owner shall
promptly correct or otherwise resolve any such error, omission, discrepancy, contradiction or
ambiguity. Upon completion of the Work, Contractor shall return all Owner-provided information to
Owner after indicating any Contractor changes to reflect the “as-built” condition of the Work.

          (l) Site, Nearby Work Areas and Transportation Assumptions.

     (i) Contractor in consultation with Owner and in accordance with Good Industry
Practices has identified and listed on Exhibit A, prudent Site assessment
and Site diligence activities required to confirm the ability of Contractor and its
Subcontractors to perform the Work at the Site. Such Site assessment and Site
diligence includes assessment of (a) conditions bearing upon access, egress,
transportation (subject to Section 3.5(l)(iii)), waste disposal, water
disposal, handling, laydown, parking, storage and roads; (b) the availability,
nature and conditions of water, electricity and other utilities; (c) the physical
condition of the Site and Nearby Work Areas, and (d) local, normal weather
conditions.

Page 28

 

     (ii) Contractor represents that it has taken or will undertake the site
assessment and site diligence Work in Contractor’s Scope of Work as specified on
Exhibit A. In addition to the site assessment and site diligence Work that
Contractor has completed as of the Effective Date, Contractor has also reviewed the
information provided by or on behalf of Owner with respect to the Site and Nearby
Work Areas, including information related to certain Site, Nearby Work Areas and
Transportation Assumptions, relating to both the surface and subsurface conditions
of the Site and Nearby Work Areas. Contractor acknowledges that the results of the
Site assessments and Site diligence it has performed together with the Site
assessments and Site diligence performed by Owner or its other contractors, that
Contractor has reviewed and reasonably relied upon, do not indicate the need for
additional Site assessments and Site diligence beyond those activities which are
described on Exhibit A, provided that the Parties acknowledge that a
substantial amount of the Site assessment and Site diligence work with respect to
the Facility has not been performed as of the Effective Date and the results of such
assessments and diligence when received may indicate the need for additional
assessments, tests and diligence and/or indicate the need for other modifications to
the Work or the Facility. If such results do indicate the need for additional
assessments, tests and diligence and/or indicate the need for other modifications to
the Work or the Facility, then Contractor shall be entitled to a Change.

     (iii) Site, Nearby Work Areas and Transportation Assumptions are set forth in
Exhibit S. If the conditions at the Site or at the Nearby Work Areas are
not as specified in the Site, Nearby Work Areas and Transportation Assumptions, and
such deviation adversely impacts Contractor or its Subcontractors’ cost or ability
to perform the Work or otherwise meet the Project Schedule, performance or other
obligations under this Agreement, then Contractor shall be entitled to a Change.

          (m) Contractor shall develop a Project Execution Plan (“PEP”) as outlined in
Exhibit D. The initial PEP shall be submitted to the Owner for review and Acceptance,
which Acceptance shall not to be unreasonably withheld, [***] or less after the Effective Date,
and the PEP will be updated periodically by Contractor to support the Project Schedule.

          (n) Regulatory Support. Contractor agrees to supply on a Time and Materials Basis
pursuant to a mutually agreeable Change Order any information, testimony or other Services as
required by Owner during the term of this Agreement in connection with any proceedings before any
Governmental Authority.

          (o) Covenant not to Transfer Equipment. Contractor covenants and agrees that it
shall not transfer any Equipment to another project without Owner’s prior written consent, except
for materials and equipment purchased on a bulk basis.

     3.6 Owner’s General Responsibilities. Owner shall perform the responsibilities set
forth in this Article 3 and elsewhere in this Agreement identified as Owner’s Scope of
Work, including Exhibit A, at its own expense and in accordance with the Project Schedule.

Page 29

 

          (a) Owner’s Representative. Owner shall appoint Owner’s Project Director (and shall
have the right to appoint any successor or replacement Project Director) with whom Contractor may
consult at all reasonable times, and whose instructions, requests and decisions that are in
writing (except as otherwise permitted in this Agreement) shall be binding upon Owner as to all
matters pertaining to this Agreement, subject to the restrictions set forth in Section
9.3.

          (b) Site and Nearby Work Areas Access. From and after the time the Project Schedule
indicates that Contractor is required to have access to the Site and/or Nearby Work Areas, Owner
shall provide Contractor, at no additional charge or fee to Contractor, rights of access to such
portions of the Site and/or Nearby Work Areas as Contractor may reasonably require for the
construction of the Facility and for Contractor’s office, warehouse, shop buildings, welding
facilities, Construction Equipment storage, lay down area, and employee parking. The location and
conditions associated with such use and access to the Site and Nearby Work Areas shall be
consistent with the descriptions in Exhibits R-1 and R-2 and the Site, Nearby Work
Areas and Transportation Assumptions as such items may be modified by mutual agreement of the
Parties. Owner and Contractor shall cooperate with each other so as to minimize disruption of
Contractor’s performance of the Work and Owner’s other activities at the Site and Nearby Work
Areas, and Contractor shall cooperate with Owner so as to minimize disruption of the operation of
the Facility. Contractor’s access to the Site and Nearby Work Areas is subject to the Project
Policies and Procedures, and all other terms and conditions of this Agreement.

          (c) Fuel and Utilities. Owner shall provide the electrical interconnect for power to
be exported from the Facility at the interconnection points identified or to be identified in
Exhibit A, as well as all back feed electrical power necessary for construction and
testing of the Facility at the times required pursuant to the Project Schedule. Contractor will
build the potable water System and sewage treatment System and following completion and Turnover
of such Systems, Owner will operate such Systems and allow Contractor and its Personnel use of
such Systems. The Scope of Work in Exhibit A specifies the division of responsibilities
between Owner and Contractor for utilities during construction and for the provision of certain
consumables and services by Owner during construction and testing of the Facility. Westinghouse
is responsible to supply Nuclear Fuel and Related Services under a separate contract with Owner
dated as of the Effective Date.

          (d) Spare Parts.

     (i) Mandatory Spare Parts. As Contractor completes the design of each
System, Contractor shall provide to Owner an initial list of the Mandatory Spare
Parts, and Contractor shall update such list on at least a quarterly basis. Within
eighteen (18) months after finalization of the AP1000 Nuclear Power
Plant design as specified in the Project Schedule, Contractor shall provide
Owner with the completed list of the Mandatory Spare Parts and their associated
pricing. The list of Mandatory Spare Parts provided to Owner will be consistent
with that developed for the AP1000 Standard Plant while taking into consideration
the actual selection of equipment suppliers used for the Owner’s Facility. The
pricing for the Mandatory Spare Parts shall be provided at the system commodity code

Page 30

 

level and not for individual spare parts. The pricing shall be consistent with the
pricing methodology used to develop the pricing specified in this Agreement for the
associated Equipment for which Mandatory Spare Parts are required with respect to
the application of costs (including labor, material, transportation), SGA, risk,
contingency and profit rates. As soon as practical after Owner’s receipt of the
completed list of Mandatory Spare Parts and associated pricing (not to exceed one
hundred eighty (180) Days or as needed to support the Start-up Tests), Owner shall
issue a Change Order to Contractor to purchase the Mandatory Spare Parts or
portion(s) thereof in accordance with Article 9. As part of Contractor’s
Scope of Work, Contractor shall deliver the purchased Mandatory Spare Parts to Owner
DDP (delivered duty paid) to the Facility prior to commencement of the Start-up
Tests or as otherwise specified in the Project Schedule. Owner shall make such
Mandatory Spare Parts available to Contractor from the delivery of such spare parts
through the end of the applicable Equipment or Service Warranty Period, subject to
Sections 3.6(d)(iii) and 3.6(d)(iv). If Owner has not purchased a
Mandatory Spare Part identified in the completed list of the Mandatory Spare Parts
or if a Mandatory Spare Part is not otherwise readily available for use by
Contractor (for any reason other than such part having been used on a prior repair
of the Facility or having been transferred to another AP1000 Nuclear Power Plant
pursuant to a request by Contractor), and Contractor requires such Mandatory Spare
Part for the performance of the Work, then the Contractor shall be entitled to a
Change Order pursuant to Article 9 to address the impact on cost and
schedule, if any.

     (ii) Optional Spare Parts. Within eighteen (18) months after
finalization of the AP1000 Nuclear Power Plant design as specified in the Project
Schedule, Contractor shall provide Owner with a list and the associated costs of
Optional Spare Parts that are recommended by Contractor and vendors of Equipment
comprising the Facility. At Owner’s election, Owner may procure any Optional Spare
Parts on its own, or, at least two years prior to the scheduled completion of the
Start-up Tests, or as otherwise agreed, Owner may identify to Contractor which
Optional Spare Parts Owner wants Contractor to supply to Owner.

     (iii) Use and Replacement of Spare Parts. Contractor shall have the
right to use Owner’s Mandatory Spare Parts or Owner’s Optional Spare Parts for the
Facility during the performance of the Work or to remedy a Warranty item, and
Contractor shall promptly repair or replace any such spare part that it uses.
Contractor shall not be excused from its warranty obligations in the event that a
Mandatory Spare Part or an Optional Spare Part is not available for its use for any
reason.

     (iv) Sharing of Spare Parts. Owner may maintain certain Mandatory
Spare Parts, (as well as any Optional Spare Parts it may choose to purchase), under
a pooling agreement with a consortium of utilities that are constructing AP1000
Nuclear Power Plants. Upon request by Owner, Contractor and Owner agree to work
together, and with other utilities that are constructing AP1000

Page 31

 

Nuclear Power
Plants, to establish an arrangement to share Mandatory Spare Parts in a manner that
will satisfy the need to have reasonably quick, convenient access to Mandatory Spare
Parts while minimizing Owner’s costs. Optional Spare Parts may be shared with other
utilities in Owner’s sole discretion.

     (v) Other Spare Parts. Contractor will supply a limited quantity of
spare parts for Contractor’s use during construction of the Facility, which are
included in the Contract Price. Upon Substantial Completion of the Facility, or as
otherwise agreed by the Parties, Contractor shall provide any such spare parts to
Owner that were not used by Contractor during construction of the Facility.
Contractor agrees to supply a list of these spare parts to Owner upon Owner’s
request.

          (e) Operation and Maintenance Staff. For those activities conducted by Owner under
Contractor’s Technical Direction, Owner shall provide qualified operation and maintenance
personnel for training, testing, operation and maintenance of the Facility consistent with
Contractor’s requirements as determined during Phase I and as set forth upon such determination in
Exhibit A, Table 4. If as a result of circumstances encountered during testing,
Contractor determines that additional operation and maintenance personnel are needed (and provided
that such determination has been made in accordance with Good Industry Practices), Contractor
shall have the right to require that additional operation and maintenance personnel be provided by
Owner upon reasonable advance notice to, and following discussions with, Owner. Contractor shall
conduct Construction and Installation Tests with support from the Owner. Owner shall conduct the
Preoperational Tests and Start-up Tests in accordance with the Project Schedule with Technical
Direction from the Contractor. Contractor will develop a training program for these personnel as
provided in Exhibit A.

          (f) Site and Nearby Work Areas Safety and Environmental Rules. From the date the
Contractor assumes control of the Site and Nearby Work Areas until Substantial Completion of the
applicable Unit, and subject to Owner’s obligations under the COL and applicable Law, Owner and
its Personnel shall abide by the Site and Nearby Work Area safety and environmental plan and
associated rules promulgated by Contractor and accepted by Owner under Section 23.3(e).

          (g) Storage. Contractor and Owner will establish delivery dates for the Equipment in
the Project Schedule, consistent with the Milestone Performance Schedule and the Milestone Payment
Schedule. In the event that such schedules indicate or Owner and Contractor agree that Equipment
ordered during Phase I should be delivered prior to Contractor having access to and control of the
Site or Nearby Work Areas, Owner shall provide a secure area at the Site or Nearby Work Areas for
storage of such Equipment, or shall be responsible for the payment of secure storage of such
Equipment at a location other than the Site or Nearby Work Areas. In either circumstance,
Contractor shall supply Owner with Maintenance
Procedures on how the Equipment is to be stored and maintained, prior to delivery. If Owner
elects to store Equipment at a location other than the Site or Nearby Work Areas, Owner shall be
responsible to ensure that maintenance requirements are met. Once Contractor assumes control of
the Site or Nearby Work Areas, Contractor will become responsible for the storage and related
maintenance obligations with respect to the Equipment at the Site or Nearby Work

Page 32

 

Areas. The
Parties understand and agree that actual deliveries will frequently take place a little before or
a little after the date set forth in the Project Schedule. However, if Equipment is delivered
prior to the Contractor having access to and control of the Site or Nearby Work Areas and more
than [***] prior to the scheduled delivery date for such Equipment, then the Contractor shall be
responsible for the additional, incremental storage and maintenance cost incurred by Owner from
the date of such delivery until the date [***] prior to the scheduled delivery date.

          (h) Owner Information. Owner shall provide the information described in Exhibit
A in accordance with the timing and other requirements set forth therein and in accordance
with the provisions of the Project Schedule. If Contractor notifies Owner of a material
discrepancy, contradiction or ambiguity within the provisions of this Agreement and the Owner
drawings or other Documentation, or between the Owner drawings and the conditions at the Site or
Nearby Work Areas, or of any error or omission in the Owner drawings, then Owner shall promptly
correct or otherwise resolve any such discrepancy, contradiction or ambiguity and Contractor shall
be entitled to request a Change in accordance with Section 9.1.

     3.7 Subcontracting. 

          (a) The Parties have agreed upon the list of approved Major Subcontractors for specified
portions of the Work as set forth in Exhibit P-1. Subject to Section 3.7(b),
Contractor shall have the right to have that portion of the Services identified in Exhibit
P-1 performed by any approved Major Subcontractor of Contractor’s choice for such Service, and
shall have the right to purchase Equipment identified in Exhibit P-1 from any approved
Major Subcontractor of Contractor’s choice for such Equipment, in each case without any further
approval from Owner. The approved Major Subcontractor(s) selected by Contractor to perform a
specific portion of the Work shall be referred to herein as the “Preferred Major
Subcontractor” for such portion of the Work.

          (b) In situations where more than one approved Major Subcontractor is identified in
Exhibit P-1 for providing a Service or providing specified Equipment, Contractor shall
give Owner Notice of Contractor’s Preferred Major Subcontractor at least five (5) Business Days
prior to Contractor making a commitment to such Preferred Major Subcontractor. Wherever
practical, Contractor shall select Major Subcontractors that supplied (or will supply) Equipment
for other Units delivered (or to be delivered) to Owner or Owner’s Affiliates. For Equipment,
such Notice shall identify the primary manufacturing facility where the Equipment is to be
manufactured or assembled, and shall include relevant quality information. For Services, such
Notice shall include known and available information concerning the Preferred Major
Subcontractor’s relevant quality information, and with respect to Major Subcontractor’s providing
on Site or Nearby Work area Services, known and available information regarding the safety record.
Contractor shall also supply any additional
information that may be requested by Owner that may be reasonably obtained by Contractor.
The selection of any Preferred Major Subcontractor shall be subject to rejection by Owner based
upon specific, supportable reasons that are specified by Owner in writing within such five (5)
Business Day notice period, or five (5) Business Days after all additional information requested
by Owner is supplied by Contractor. If any Preferred Major Subcontractor is rejected

Page 33

 

by Owner
based on specific, reasons that are specified in writing by Owner within the five (5) Business Day
period, Owner and Contractor shall confer as necessary to select a mutually acceptable replacement
to the Preferred Major Subcontractor to perform the Work. If Owner rejects a Preferred Major
Subcontractor that is nominated by Contractor, then Contractor shall be entitled to a Change under
the provisions of Article 9 with respect to any additional costs or other impacts
attributable to replacing the Preferred Major Subcontractor; provided, however, if using the
Preferred Major Subcontractor selected by Contractor from the approved Major Subcontractor list
would have constituted or caused a material impairment to the safety or quality of the Facility or
would have resulted in a breach of Contractor’s obligations under this Agreement, then no Change
Order shall be issued in connection with such replacement.

          (c) The Parties acknowledge that maintaining the standardization of the AP1000 Nuclear Power
Plant is important for cost, schedule and implementation efficiencies from which all Parties
benefit, and these considerations may lead Contractor to propose that it select alternative Major
Subcontractors for the supply of Equipment or Services to those listed in Exhibit P-1. If
Contractor desires to engage any such alternative Major Subcontractor that is not identified in
Exhibit P-1 to perform Services or provide Equipment identified in Exhibit P-1,
then, before Contractor enters into any contract with, or otherwise engages, such alternative
Major Subcontractor to perform such Services or provide such Equipment, Contractor shall deliver
to Owner (i) the name of the alternative Major Subcontractor that Contractor proposes to use in
the performance of such Services or purchase of such Equipment, (ii) a statement of the reasons
why it is preferable to use the requested alternative Major Subcontractor rather than an
applicable approved Major Subcontractor, and (iii) a statement of the estimated impact, if any, on
[***]Work. Such alternative Major Subcontractor shall be subject to the prior written approval of
Owner, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld. In determining whether to approve such
Major Subcontractor, Owner shall take into consideration among other factors the following: the
capability of the proposed alternative Major Subcontractor to perform the Work in accordance
herewith and the need to maintain the standardization of the AP1000 Nuclear Power Plant and
consistency of Equipment between Units at the Facility as well as Units at Affiliate sites, and
the estimated impact on the [***]. [***].

          (d) Any Work that is to be performed at the Site and/or Nearby Work Areas using
Subcontractors other than approved Major Subcontractors shall, to the extent commercially
reasonable, be performed using Subcontractors on the list of EPC Subcontractors for Site and
Nearby Work Areas Construction and Related Field Services that is set forth in Exhibit P-2
(the “Site Subcontractor List”). Contractor and Owner agree that the Site Subcontractor
List may be modified from time to time by mutual agreement of the Project Directors based on the
experience of both Parties. The Parties shall endeavor to add local contractors to Exhibit
P-2 who are capable of performing Work in accordance with the requirements of this Agreement.
Contractor may also use Subcontractors that are not on the Site Subcontractor List on an emergency
basis, provided that none of the Subcontractors on the Site Subcontractor List are qualified and
available to perform the Work in a timely manner, and
provided that Contractor exercises reasonable efforts to consult with Owner prior to entering
into the Subcontract. If Owner removes a Subcontractor from the Site Subcontractor List, and such
deletion adversely affects Contractor or another Subcontractor’s ability to perform the Work,
increases the cost of the Work, or otherwise negatively affects Contractor’s obligations under
this Agreement, then Contractor shall be entitled to a Change in accordance with the

Page 34

 

provisions of
Article 9; provided, however, if using the Subcontractor previously listed on the Site
Subcontractor List would have constituted or caused a safety or other breach of Contractor’s
obligations or covenants under this Agreement, then no Change Order shall be issued in connection
with such removal.

          (e) Contractor shall include in its Subcontracts those provisions and covenants that in
Contractor’s reasonable judgment would be appropriate and useful to have as express Subcontractor
obligations, consistent with Contractor’s obligations under this Agreement, including the right of
Owner to require the assignment of Contractor’s rights and obligations under such Subcontracts to
Owner without the prior consent of the Subcontractors as provided for in Sections 22.2(c),
22.3(c), 22.4(e) and 22.7(a)(ii). If a Subcontractor does not agree to include in its
Subcontract such an assignment provision, Contractor shall promptly notify Owner, and where
commercially reasonable Contractor shall support Owner’s efforts to obtain such Subcontractor’s
agreement to such assignment provision. Contractor shall continue to be responsible for
performance of the Work in accordance with the requirements of this Agreement. It is understood
that the subcontracts that Contractor will have with ABB Ltd. and Emerson Process Management for
the supply of instrumentation and control related Equipment shall not be directly assignable to
Owner in the event of termination of this Agreement.

          (f) No contractual relationship shall exist between Owner and any Subcontractor with respect
to any of the Work. Contractor shall not be relieved from any of its obligations or liabilities
under this Agreement because of the acts, omissions, failures or faults of the Subcontractors nor
shall Contractor be relieved of any of its obligations hereunder because of its hiring
Subcontractors to perform portions of the Work.

          (g) Contractor shall take commercially reasonable efforts to enter into subcontracts with
Major Subcontractors that are terminable for convenience, and that any related termination fees
thereunder are (a) commercially reasonable in light of the value of the Services or Equipment
provided at the time and when the termination fee applies, and (b) do not include any payment for
damages, injuries or claims of the type disclaimed in Section 17.1.

     3.8 Design and Engineering.

          (a) Design Documentation for Standard Plant. The NuStart Work has been and will
continue to be subject to the review and comment process set forth in the NuStart agreements. For
documents that have not already been finalized pursuant to the Parties’ prior efforts as a part of
the NuStart Work, Contractor shall continue to submit to Owner via the NuStart Engineering
Committee for their review and comment the remaining AP1000 Facility Information for the Standard
Plant (the “Standard Plant Design Documentation”). Owner shall complete its review of,
and provide any comments via the NuStart Engineering Committee to Contractor with respect to, the
Standard Plant Design Documentation within thirty (30) Days of receiving such Standard Plant
Design Documentation from Contractor or such longer period of
time as mutually agreed. Owner shall submit any comments or changes that are unique to its
Facility which it may have, arising out of regulatory requirements associated with the Facility
and its COL, directly to Contractor; provided, that if such change increases Contractor’s costs or
impacts the Milestone Performance Schedule or the Incentive Program Milestone Dates, Contractor
shall be entitled to a Change Order under Article 9. It is the intent of the Parties to

Page 35

 

preserve the design for the Standard Plant, including the approach to the supply chain,
construction, licensing, operation and maintenance of the Standard Plant to the greatest extent
practical. Accordingly, Contractor will give due consideration to the comments of the NuStart
Engineering Committee to the Standard Plant Design Documentation and, to the extent consistent
with such intent to preserve the standardization of the AP1000 Nuclear Power Plant, shall not
unreasonably withhold its approval of any changes suggested by such comments. If Contractor
revises any Standard Plant Design Documentation, Contractor shall resubmit it for review and input
in accordance herewith, provided that the period of review for the first or any subsequent
re-submittal shall be no more than fifteen (15) Days or such other number of Days as may be agreed
to by the Parties taking into account the complexity of the resubmission, the criticality of the
schedule and the volume of submissions under review. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Contractor
shall not be required to change the certified design of the Standard Plant or any documents
submitted with the COL, except to the extent required by differences in applicable Laws, the COL,
or specific Site and/or Nearby Work Area related requirements provided, that if such change
increases Contractor’s costs or impacts the Milestone Performance Schedule or the Incentive
Program Milestone Dates, Contractor shall be entitled to a Change Order under Article 9.

          (b) Design Documentation for Non-Standard Plant. Contractor shall submit to Owner
for its review and approval (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld) AP1000 Facility
Information for portions of the Facility that are not part of the Standard Plant (the
“Non-Standard Plant Design Documentation”) consisting of plant layout drawings, design
criteria, general arrangement drawings, P&IDs, design specifications, system specification
documents (or equivalent) and electrical one line drawings. AP1000 Facility Information shall
be provided either in electronic form or in such other form as mutually agreed, consistent with
customary practices for power plant construction projects. When required by the Owner, Contractor
shall transmit to Owner, technical submittals, shop drawings, including supporting catalog cuts,
samples, manufacturer’s literature, sketches or drawings, calculations and other pertinent data,
in sufficient detail to enable Owner to review the information and determine that Contractor
clearly understands the requirements of the Agreement. Owner shall complete its review of, and
provide any comments to Contractor with respect to, the Non-Standard Plant Design Documentation
within thirty (30) Days of receiving such Non-Standard Plant Design Documentation from Contractor.
Other AP1000 Facility Non-Standard Plant Design Documentation will be submitted to Owner for its
use and records. In each instance where any Non-Standard Plant Design Documentation fails to
comply with the applicable requirements of this Agreement, (including where a re-submittal fails
to comply), Contractor shall correct such Non-Standard Plant Design Documentation and shall
resubmit it for Owner’s review in accordance herewith, provided that Owner’s period of review for
such re-submittal shall be no more than fifteen (15) Days or such other number of Days as may be
agreed to by the Parties taking into account the complexity of the resubmission, the criticality
of the schedule and the volume of submissions under review.

          (c) Review Processes and Design Changes. To the extent the review process described
in Section 3.8(a) or (b) above results in a change to the design that is not a
change caused by a Contractor error or deficiency in the design of the Facility, or other
noncompliance with the requirements of this Agreement, Contractor or Owner (as applicable) shall
be entitled to a Change Order with respect to the impacts of such delay or design change.

Page 36

 

          (d) Responsibility for Errors. Any review by Owner of any AP1000 Facility
Information shall not relieve Contractor from any obligation or responsibility under this
Agreement. If errors, omissions, ambiguities, inconsistencies, inadequacies or other defects are
found in the AP1000 Facility Information, they and the related Work shall be corrected at
Contractor’s cost, unless (i) such Work is performed on a Target Price Basis under this Agreement
or (ii) such Work is performed on a Time and Materials Basis under this Agreement, in which case
such correction shall be performed on a Time and Materials Basis without any profit component
included therein. Performance of design, engineering, procurement or fabrication Work by
Contractor prior to Owner review and approval of the associated drawings, Specifications and
documentation for which Owner has review and approval rights, shall be at Contractor’s own risk.

          (e) Units of Measure. Where metric units are used to describe important dimensions
or calculation results, American unit equivalents will also be included.

          (f) As-Built Drawings. Prior to Final Completion of the Facility, Contractor shall
supply Owner with “as-built” drawings for the portions of the Facility constructed or installed by
Contractor.

     3.9 Project Controls. 

          (a) Contractor shall provide a “full time” Site-based staff within [***] following
mobilization to the Site through Substantial Completion. The Contractor’s staff shall be
responsible for all project control activities, including without limitation, project management,
scheduling, cost reporting, quantity tracking, and Change Order management. Contractor shall
select only those persons who are qualified by the necessary education, training, licensing and
experience to provide a high quality performance of the project control activities.

          (b) Contractor shall coordinate the incorporation of all schedule activities and interface
points between all parties. Owner will provide progress updates with regard to the activities
under the Owner’s Scope of Work as necessary to allow Contractor to establish and maintain the
Project Schedule.

     3.10 Responsibility for Work. Contractor shall be responsible for taking reasonable
precautions necessary to prevent damage or injury to the Work of Contractor, Owner, or any of their
employees, other contractors, or members of the general public. These measures shall include, but
not be limited to, laying drop cloths, constructing shields and guard fences, and any other
measures included in the Project Policies and Procedures.

     3.11 Site and Nearby Work Areas Cleanup. During the performance of the Work, and
subject to Article 20, Contractor shall remove and properly dispose of all construction
related waste materials, rubbish, debris and other garbage, and liquid and nonliquid materials
whether spilled, dropped, discharged, blown out or leaked, from the Site and the Nearby Work Areas
(to the extent applicable). Contractor shall employ adequate dust control measures. Before Final
Completion, Contractor shall remove from the Site and the Nearby Work Areas (to the extent
applicable) waste materials and rubbish generated by Contractor during its performance of the

Page 37

 

Work
and Contractor shall otherwise leave the Facility, the Site, and the Nearby Work Areas (to the
extent applicable and included in Contractor’s Scope of Work) in a neat and clean condition. If
Contractor fails to perform such housekeeping services, Owner, following notice and a reasonable
opportunity for Contractor to cure, may perform such services, and Contractor shall reimburse Owner
for [***] of the Owner’s actual wage cost incurred in connection therewith, or at Owner’s option,
such amount may be deducted from any amount owed to Contractor.

     3.12 Establishment of Project Policies and Procedures. The Parties agree to jointly
establish, as a minimum, the Project Policies and Procedures listed in Exhibit Y that are
consistent with the requirements of this Agreement, Good Industry Practice, and applicable Laws.
Project Policies and Procedures shall generally apply to and govern activities at the Site and the
Nearby Work Areas (to the extent applicable) with respect to the general topics listed in
Exhibit Y to this Agreement, as well as other subjects as agreed to by the Parties. Drafts
of Project Policies and Procedures shall be developed by Contractor and delivered to the Owner for
review and comment on a mutually agreed schedule in order to support on-site Work in a timely
fashion. Approval of applicable Project Policies and Procedures shall not be unreasonably withheld
or delayed. Approval of applicable Project Policies and Procedures shall not constitute a waiver
of any rights or remedies under this Agreement.

ARTICLE 4 — FACILITY LICENSES, PERMITS AND APPROVALS

     4.1 Owner Permits. Except as otherwise provided herein, Owner shall be responsible for
obtaining, maintaining and paying for Owner Permits (including the COL) and for all communications
with any Government Authorities regarding Owner Permits. Contractor shall provide support to Owner
in connection with approvals of Owner Permits, or any proceedings before the Florida Public Service
Commission, including making personnel available to testify at formal and informal government
proceedings, and providing such documents and information reasonably requested by Owner, including
review and comment to sections prepared by others, and any amendments thereto, to address formal
questions from any Government Authority on a schedule that supports the Project Schedule and
licensing support services. [***] in accordance with the requirements of this Agreement. Owner
shall provide as much advance notice as practical for the testimony of Contractor’s Personnel at
proceedings before Government Authorities. For the avoidance of doubt, Contractor shall be
responsible for performing its obligations under this Agreement, but provides no guarantee that the
COL or any other Owner’s Permit required to be obtained by
Owner will be obtained by Owner. The Milestone Performance Schedule is based on the COL being
obtained by January 1, 2012 and that the deep excavation work, diaphragm wall and pressure grouting
can proceed prior to the issuance of the COL in accordance with the Milestone Performance Schedule.
Other Owner Permits shall be obtained in time to support the Project Schedule.

     4.2 Contractor Permits. Contractor shall be responsible for obtaining, maintaining, paying
for and complying in its performance of the Work with the Contractor Permits. Owner shall provide
Contractor reasonable cooperation and assistance in obtaining and maintaining Contractor Permits.
Contractor shall communicate with Owner as to what permits it will be obtaining in advance of
application therefore so that communications with the Government Authority that will issue the
permits can be coordinated. Contractor agrees not to obtain permits on Owner’s behalf or for the
Facility without the prior concurrence of Owner. Contractor agrees

Page 38

 

to immediately notify Owner’s
Project Director of any violation of any Contractor Permits that it becomes aware of, and agrees to
keep Owner’s Project Director informed as to any remedial actions that are to be taken by
Contractor.

     4.3 ITAACs.

          (a) Contractor shall be responsible for those ITAACs that are set forth in the Design Control
Document that are designated in the Exhibit A Scope of Work as being the responsibility of
Contractor (the “Base ITAAC”). Any new or additional ITAAC, or any changes or
modification to any ITAAC as delineated in the Design Control Document shall either be the
responsibility of Owner or shall be added to Contractor’s Scope of Work pursuant to a Change Order
in accordance with Article 9. Unless otherwise agreed to by the Parties, modifications to
any Base ITAAC or any additional ITAAC that should logically be added to Contractor’s Scope of
Work shall be added to Contractor’s Scope of Work pursuant to a Change Order in accordance with
the provisions of Article 9, and following such ITAAC addition shall be considered a Base
ITAAC for all purposes under this Agreement.

          (b) Contractor shall be responsible for conducting, or causing to be conducted the
inspections, tests and analyses associated with each Base ITAAC. Upon completion of such
inspections, tests and analyses, Contractor shall be responsible for preparing and delivering to
Owner the Documentation or other deliverables to demonstrate and confirm that the related
acceptance criteria associated with each Base ITAAC has been met. All such Documentation shall be
maintained by Contractor through Final Completion and shall be readily retrievable within a
reasonable time upon request by Owner. If upon completion of the relevant inspections, tests and
analyses the Unit fails to satisfy any Base ITAAC requirements, then Contractor shall be
responsible to perform the Work that may be necessary for the Facility to satisfy such Base ITAAC
requirements at Contractor’s cost. Contractor shall perform such remedial Work such that the
Facility shall satisfy the failed Base ITAAC requirements within [***] of the failure, or within a
reasonable time after [***] if such Work is being prosecuted diligently, but cannot reasonably be
completed with [***]. No failure of Contractor to satisfy any Base ITAAC requirement shall be
considered an event of Force Majeure, or entitle Contractor to seek a Change Order under Section 9.1, unless a cause of the failure
qualifies as grounds for a Change Order under Article 9.

          (c) For ITAACs that are not within Contractor’s responsibility, Contractor agrees to promptly
supply the information or assistance that is reasonably requested by Owner, and Owner will pay
Contractor for such information or assistance on a Time and Materials Basis.

ARTICLE 5 — QUALITY ASSURANCE; INSPECTION OF WORK; 10 C.F.R. 21;

SAFEGUARDS INFORMATION

     5.1 Quality Assurance Program. 

          (a) Contractor has sole responsibility for the quality assurance and quality control of the
Work, including the Work performed by its Subcontractors. Contractor has provided to Owner the
Quality Assurance Program either in hard copy or electronically via

Page 39

 

access to the deliverable
AP1000 Facility Information. The “Quality Assurance Program” means collectively, the
Westinghouse Quality Management System (“QMS”) and the Shaw Stone & Webster Standard
Nuclear Quality Assurance Program (“SWSQAP”) each of which has been approved by the NRC.
The Quality Assurance Program and any changes thereto shall meet the requirements of 10 CFR Part
50 Appendix B and ASME NQA-1–1994, and be accepted by the NRC and Owner. The Quality Assurance
Program is subject to review and audit for compliance to 10 CFR Part 50 Appendix B and ASME
NQA-1–1994 by Owner. These audits and annual evaluations performed by Owner shall be the basis
for Acceptance by Owner. Contractor, with input from Owner, has put together the project specific
clarifications and modifications with respect to the Quality Assurance Program and has set forth
such items in the Project Quality Assurance Program Interface Plan (“PQAPIP”). The Quality
Assurance Program and the PQAPIP will collectively be the “Project Quality Assurance
Program” or “PQAP”. Owner’s review and Acceptance of the PQAP shall not relieve
Contractor from its obligations to comply with the requirements of this Agreement and 10 CFR Part
50, Appendix B.

          (b) Contractor will provide Owner with five (5) controlled copies of the PQAPIP and Quality
Assurance Program or make it available electronically as part of the deliverable AP1000 Facility
Information. Contractor will follow the PQAP throughout its performance of the Work. The PQAP
and associated policies and procedures shall address the Work in a manner consistent with its
classification with respect to importance to nuclear safety (i.e., safety related, significant
contributor to plant safety, non-safety related) as classified in the DCD and subsequently the
COL. In addition, the PQAP shall address commercially critical items in accordance with the
provisions of Section 5.3. 

          (c) Contractor shall be entitled to a Change with respect to the cost and expense of updating
the PQAP on an on-going basis to reflect any changes in ASME NQA-1 or NRC requirements or other
regulatory changes or changes related to the issuance of the COL that occur after the Effective
Date unless there is no incremental cost or other impact with respect to the Work associated with
the Facility that occurs because of such regulatory change. If Contractor is entitled to one or
more Changes under this Section 5.1, then the provisions of
Section 9.1(d) regarding possible cost sharing among other AP1000 Nuclear Power Plant
customers will be applicable to the extent that such Change and the basis therefore meet the
requirements of such Section. The PQAP shall support Owner’s compliance with 10 C.F.R. Part 50
Appendix B and shall be subject to review and audit by Owner at its request. For purposes of the
American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME) Code, Contractor shall be designated as Owner’s
agent.

     5.2 Augmented Quality Controls for Non-Safety Related Structures, Systems and Components.
For non-safety related structures, systems and components that are significant contributors to
plant safety and for associated Services, Contractor shall implement quality assurance requirements
consistent with their design classification in the AP1000 Design Certification and Section
17.5.II.V of NUREG-0800 (March 2007).

     5.3 Augmented Quality Controls for Commercially Critical Items. For other non-safety
related items and services that are listed on Exhibit CC, Contractor shall implement
quality assurance controls to the extent necessary to assure the quality of the items or services

Page 40

 

being supplied, consistent with Good Industry Practices. Contractor will provide Owner a copy of
the program description for implementing the quality assurance controls for Owner’s review and
Acceptance.

     5.4 Subcontractor Quality Assurance. In accordance with the PQAP, Contractor shall also
require Subcontractors performing Work within the scope of 10 CFR Part 50 Appendix B or which
provide materials, services or both that are nuclear safety related or which perform Work governed
by the augmented quality controls referred to in Section 5.2 or 5.3, to establish,
implement and maintain appropriate quality assurance programs at each location where Work is being
performed (which may either be the PQAP or another quality assurance program capable of being
audited to the PQAP requirements for the scope of supply), consistent with the nuclear safety
quality classification of their portion of the Work. Contractor shall be responsible for the
performance by Subcontractors of Work within the scope of the PQAP, 10 CFR Part 50 Appendix B (the
“Appendix B Subcontractors”) or the applicable augmented quality controls referred to in
Sections 5.2 and 5.3 hereof. Appendix B Subcontractors’ audit reports shall be made
available for review by Owner or its designee. At its own cost, Owner or its representative may
participate in scheduled audits of Subcontractors performed by Contractor. Contractor will
quarterly provide Owner a list of the upcoming Contractor scheduled audits of the Appendix B
Subcontractors and audits of the Subcontractors listed on Exhibit P-1, and Owner may
designate which of such audits it would like to attend. Following Contractor’s receipt of notice
that Owner intends to attend an audit, Contractor will keep Owner informed of any material changes
to the time, location or substance of such audit. Where required by Law, and for the commercially
critical items listed in Exhibit CC, Contractor shall include in the applicable
Subcontracts access rights at each tier of a procurement, so that the procurement documents provide
for access to the applicable Subcontractors’ plant facilities and records for inspection or audit
by Owner, its designated representative, and/or other Persons authorized by the Parties. To the
extent practical, Owner will
coordinate with Contractor in the exercise of such inspection and audit rights so that Contractor
has notice of Owner’s exercise of such right and has an opportunity to be present during such
inspection or audit.

     5.5 Contractor Quality Control and Inspection Activities. Contractor shall be responsible
to perform the quality control and inspection activities and to create legible Documentation in
accordance with the PQAP. The quality control and inspection activities will be consistent with
the nuclear safety quality classification of the Work under evaluation. The Persons performing
quality assurance or quality control functions for Contractor shall have sufficient authority and
organizational freedom to identify quality problems; to initiate, recommend or provide solutions;
and to verify implementation of solutions. Such Persons performing quality assurance or quality
control functions shall report to a management level such that this required authority and
organizational freedom, including sufficient independence from cost and schedule when contrary to
safety considerations, is provided.

     5.6 Access and Auditing On-Site and Other Facilities. 

          (a) Contractor shall provide Owner and Owner designated Persons with access to the Work at
the Site and Nearby Work Areas when Work is being performed and to portions of Contractor’s
premises and working facilities where Work is being performed, and with pertinent Documentation
and other necessary information and assistance relating to the

Page 41

 

Work, for auditing of activities
for conformance with the requirements of this Agreement and the PQAP. Such audits shall be
coordinated with Contractor so that Contractor has reasonable prior notice of such audit and has
an opportunity to be present during such audit. Contractor shall include in its Subcontracts with
(i) Major Subcontractors and (ii) Appendix B Subcontractors a provision granting the access
inspection and audit rights required by ASME NQA1-1994 by Owner and Owner Designated Persons at
Major Subcontractors’ and Appendix B Subcontractors’ premises and working facilities and shall
require such Subcontractors to include such rights in their contracts with Major Subcontractors
and Appendix B Subcontractors. This right of access to the Site, Nearby Work Areas and
Contractor’s, Major Subcontractors’, and Appendix B Subcontractors’ other facilities extends to
representatives of the NRC and other Owner Designated Persons for the purpose of performing
quality assurance and quality control activities. Quality assurance and quality control
activities at Major Subcontractors’ and Appendix B Subcontractors’ premises and working facilities
under this Agreement are defined as participation in scheduled audits, and execution of Owner
Witness and Hold Points, such as in-process testing and final product review for Acceptance. In
cases where Contractor incurs additional cost from Subcontractors due to Owner’s request to
perform additional quality assurance and quality control activities beyond these activities,
Contractor shall be entitled to a Change Order in accordance with the procedures set forth in
Article 9.

          (b) Quality assurance and quality control inspections and audits of Major Subcontractors and
Appendix B Subcontractors includes activities necessary to address quality issues which may arise
at the supplier and sub-supplier level. Contractor shall implement, and require its (i) Major
Subcontractors and (ii) Appendix B Subcontractors to implement, measures necessary to be taken to
ensure compliance with this Agreement where such measures are
identified as a result of a quality assurance audit or surveillance carried out by Owner or
Owner’s designees.

          (c) The rights of access described in this Section 5.6 are subject to: (i) reasonable
restrictions which may be identified by Contractor or a Subcontractor related to access to
proprietary information, (ii) restrictions for reasons of national security and restrictions of
access by foreign (non-U.S.) nationals, and (iii) additional costs for access beyond scheduled
audits and participation in Owner Witness and Hold Points. If it is determined that the Work is
not being done in accordance with the requirements of this Agreement or there is a pattern of
non-conformances materially exceeding industry norms, Owner shall not be liable for the cost and
schedule impacts, if any, related to such additional audits and Contractor shall not be entitled
to a Change Order with respect thereto.

     5.7 Owner Designated Persons. Throughout this Article 5 and elsewhere in this
Agreement, Owner is granted the rights, either directly or through Owner designees, Owner
authorized Persons and/or Owner’s agents or representatives (collectively, the “Owner
Designated Persons”), to audit, inspect or witness the Work, related facilities, policies and
procedures. Owner covenants it will give reasonable prior notice to Contractor of the identity of
Owner Designated Persons. Owner also agrees to exercise reasonable efforts to designate, employ,
authorize or appoint Owner Designated Persons that are not Persons whose involvement would pose a
significant confidentiality or intellectual property security risk to the Work or Contractor. To
the extent that any of Contractor’s competitors are granted access to the Work or related
facilities or information, such access will be subject to reasonable restrictions and

Page 42

 

limitations
as specified by Contractor. The confidentiality and other obligations with respect to Owner and
its actions in connection with this Agreement shall be applicable to the Owner Designated Persons
and Owner shall be responsible for the breach of such obligations by Owner Designated Persons.

     5.8 Additional Access and Auditing Requirements. Quality assurance, quality control and
other audit or inspection activities initiated by Owner, other than those permitted under
Section 5.6, shall be accommodated by Contractor to the extent practical. Any such
additional quality assurance, quality control and inspection activities requested by Owner under
this Section 5.8 shall be the basis for a Change under Article 9, unless it is
determined that the Work is not being done in accordance with the requirements of this Agreement or
there is a pattern of non-conformances materially exceeding industry norms.

     5.9 Owner Witness and Hold Points. 

          (a) Following the selection of a specific Subcontractor for the components identified in
Exhibit Q, Contractor shall include Owner Witness and Hold Points identified in
Exhibit Q in the respective manufacturing and fabrication plans for such components.
Contractor shall provide Owner access to or copies of the applicable manufacturing and fabrication
schedules and regular updates to these schedules, such that Owner has advance notice of
approaching scheduled Owner Witness and Hold Points. Owner shall be notified in writing by
Contractor of Owner Witness and Hold Points at least ten (10) Business Days prior
to the scheduled activity. Owner may designate additional Owner Witness Points and/or Owner
Hold Points. To the extent the aggregate amount of the Owner Witness Points or Owner Hold Points
exceeds the base line for the Owner Witness and Hold Points, there shall be an adjustment to the
applicable terms and conditions of this Agreement through the Change Order process as set forth in
Article 9.

          (b) If Contractor proceeds with the Work without giving Owner the ten (10) Business Day
written notice in accordance with Section 5.9(a) above, then Contractor shall uncover the
Work and accommodate the Owner Witness or Hold Point inspection and testing at Contractor’s
expense as provided in Section 5.10, unless waived in writing by Owner.

          (c) Work may proceed beyond Owner Witness Points, in the absence of Owner or its designee
attending the specified inspection or surveillance provided that Contractor gave the required ten
(10) Business Day notice in accordance with Section 5.9(a) above. Work may not proceed
beyond an Owner Hold Point without a written waiver from Owner, provided that if Owner has been
notified of the scheduled Owner Hold Point at least ten (10) Business Days prior to such Owner
Hold Point in accordance with the terms of Section 5.9(a) above, then delays incurred by
Contractor as a result of Owner’s failure to attend an Owner Hold Point shall entitle Contractor
to a Change Order subject to the requirements of Article 9. If the ten (10) Business Day
notice was given in accordance with the terms of Section 5.9(a) above, then requests by
Owner to witness tests or conduct surveillance after the scheduled point in time designated for an
Owner Witness Point shall be accommodated by Contractor only if technically feasible and shall
entitle Contractor to a Change Order in accordance with the procedures set forth in Article
9.

Page 43

 

          (d) Witnessing of tests or other surveillance by Owner shall be at Owner’s expense. If Owner
performs the surveillance or elects not to perform a surveillance, such surveillance or waiver
will not relieve Contractor of its obligations under this Agreement.

     5.10 Uncovering of Work; Re-performance of Inspection and Testing. In the event Owner
requests in writing that any Work be uncovered to determine whether such Work is deficient,
Contractor shall uncover the Work as requested and shall reperform any tests or inspection as
required by Owner. Contractor shall be entitled to a Change Order unless the uncovering of Work is
required pursuant to Section 5.9(b), or the Work is found to be deficient; provided, that
if Owner unreasonably delays delivery of its request to uncover the Work then Contractor shall be
entitled to a Change Order with respect to the additional cost and/or schedule impacts caused by
Owner’s delay. Work is deficient or nonconforming unless the applicable Documentation is complete,
accurate and reflects the Work performed in accordance with Good Industry Practices and the PQAP.
If the Work is found to be deficient or nonconforming, Contractor shall address such deficiency or
nonconformance pursuant to Section 5.11(c) at Contractor’s cost. During the Warranty
Period, the provisions of Article 14 shall apply to any Work that does not conform to the
Warranties.

     5.11 Reporting of Defects and Non-compliance; 10 CFR 21. 

          (a) Contractor shall comply and shall require its Subcontractors to comply with the
provisions of 10 CFR Part 21, “Reporting of Defects and Noncompliance,” in the performance of its
obligations under this Agreement. Without limiting the foregoing, Contractor shall act as the
“dedicating entity,” as defined in 10 CFR § 21.3, and comply with the requirements of 10 CFR §
21.21(c). Contractor shall comply with the posting requirements of 10 CFR § 21.6 at the Site.

          (b) Contractor shall permit the NRC to inspect records, premises, activities and basic
components as necessary to accomplish the purposes of 10 CFR Part 21, including permitting the NRC
the opportunity to inspect records pertaining to basic components that relate to the
identification and evaluation of deviations, and the reporting of defects and failures to comply,
including any advice given to purchasers or licensees on the placement, erection, installation,
operation, maintenance, modification, or inspection of a basic component. Contractor shall provide
Owner with copies of all notices and other Documentation that Contractor discloses to the NRC
related to the Work concurrently with such disclosure to the NRC, including those disclosed
pursuant to 10 CFR Part 21 and 10 CFR Part 50.55(e) and (f).

          (c) Work that does not conform to specified requirements hereunder shall be subject to
controls implemented by Contractor to prevent installation or use of such nonconforming Work. Such
controls shall provide for Contractor’s identification, documentation, evaluation, segregation
when practical and disposition of such nonconforming Work. Nonconformance to contract
requirements or Owner approved documents, where the proposed disposition is repair or use-as-is
shall be submitted to Owner for review and approval. Nonconformances submitted for Owner’s
approval shall include Contractor-recommended disposition and technical justification.
Disposition of nonconforming Work may include rework, use-as-is, repair or reject, and/or scrap.
Repaired Work shall be re-inspected to verify conformance with the requirements specified by the
disposition, and re-performed Work shall be re-inspected to verify conformance with the original,
specified requirements hereunder.

     5.12 Calibrations with respect to Non-Safety Items. Measuring and test equipment
(“M&TE”) used to determine conformance to specified requirements or to develop design
criteria, shall be calibrated or verified, as necessary to assure the capability and accuracy of
the M&TE. The M&TE shall be subject to the controls of the Contractor’s Calibration Program as
described in the PQAP.

     5.13 Stop of Work. Owner reserves the right through any Owner Designated Person to require
Contractor to stop performance of a portion of the Work (a “Stop Work Order”) when
significant conditions adverse to the quality of such portion of the Work arise that: (i) cause
damage to the Work, (ii) prevent Owner from exercising its inspection or audits rights hereunder,
or (iii) cause Contractor to not fulfill its obligations hereunder. Contractor shall take prompt
corrective actions to resolve such conditions identified by Owner prior to Contractor’s resumption
of its performance of such stopped Work. To the extent practical, prior to Owner’s exercise of such
right, Owner shall formally notify Contractor in writing of the reason for stopping such portion of
the Work and the expected conditions under which such portion of the Work can resume. Significant
conditions
that may result in stopping Contractor’s performance of a portion of the Work include the
following:

	 	(a)	 	documented lessons learned indicate that Contractor’s continued
performance of such portion of the Work would result in a nonconformance that
could not be corrected to the condition required hereunder or would require
extensive or excessive time and retrofit, repair or rework to correct;
	 
	 	(b)	 	Contractor has not established or implemented required controls
in accordance with the PQAP or the augmented quality controls referenced in
Sections 5.2 and 5.3;
	 
	 	(c)	 	Contractor is performing such portion of the Work in violation
of a requirement hereunder;
	 
	 	(d)	 	Contractor is using nonconforming Equipment or materials, which
Contractor has not corrected and such nonconforming Equipment or materials have
not been approved or conditionally released;
	 
	 	(e)	 	Contractor is using drawings, procedures or instructions that
require prior approval and has not received such approval or have not been
conditionally released or are not in accordance with PQAP or this Agreement;
	 
	 	(f)	 	Contractor’s continued performance of such portion of the Work
is in violation of mandatory design changes;
	 
	 	(g)	 	drawings, procedures or instructions authorized to control such
portion of the Work in progress are not available;

Page 45

 

	 	(h)	 	Contractor has not established quality verification
Documentation in accordance with the PQAP or this Agreement, or Contractor’s
quality verification Documentation is incorrect or is non-conforming with those
requirements; or
	 
	 	(i)	 	such portion of the Work is being performed by Contractor’s
Personnel not qualified pursuant to the requirements hereunder.

If Owner issues a Stop Work Order, there will not be an adjustment to the Milestone Performance
Schedule, the Contract Price or any other provisions of this Agreement, unless it is determined
that the circumstances at the time of the Stop Work Order did not give Owner the right to issue a
Stop Work Order under this Section 5.13.

     5.14 Safeguards Information. Contractor and its Subcontractors will have access to
safeguards information as defined in 10 CFR 73.2 during performance of the Work. Contractor agrees
that safeguards information shall
be handled and protected from unauthorized disclosure in accordance with the requirements of 10 CFR
73.21, NRC Management Directive No. 12, and Section 147 of the AEA.

     5.15 Components and Welds. Welds that are performed on any pressure boundary or on any
component in the Unit that are subject to pre-service and in-service inspection requirements shall
be accessible and inspectable after completion of the Facility, including one hundred percent
(100%) of the ASME code section XI required volume and/or area, as applicable. When component
design precludes obtaining one hundred percent (100%) of the Code-required volume, the minimum
coverage may be ninety percent (90%) as permitted by Code Case N-460. The basis for not being able
to obtain one hundred percent (100%) shall be documented in the design package. Reactor head
penetrations and nozzles shall be inspectable to the FIRST REVISED NRC ORDER (EA-03-009), or an
NRC-approved ASME Code Case. Pre-service inspection shall be performed on the CRDM nozzles and
welds as required by ASME code section XI. During the fabrication of Equipment or during
construction of the Unit, all pressure boundary welds shall be inspected by qualified personnel
using appropriate non-destructive examination methods in strict accordance with applicable codes
and standards. Contractor shall maintain records of all such weld inspections, including all weld
repairs, and shall make such records available to Owner upon Owner’s request. Repair records
shall include the extent of repairs (length, depth, and location) for each repair. Pre-service
inspection results shall be provided to the Owner, including those recorded and retained in
electronic format (e.g., UT and ECT).

ARTICLE 6 — CONTRACT PRICE

     6.1 Components of the Contract Price. The Contract Price as of the Effective Date for
Contractor’s Scope of Work for the Facility is Seven Billion, Six Hundred Fifty Million Dollars
($7,650,000,000), as further described in Exhibit H. The Contract Price shall be subject
to the Price Adjustment Provisions in Article 7 and Exhibit J, and subject to
Changes under Article 9 that may modify the Contract Price.

     6.2 Price Breakdown. Contractor shall provide Owner with a schedule of values covering the

pricing and audit information requirements under this Agreement, Contractor agrees to furnish, as
requested by Owner, a breakdown of the Contract Price or documentation sufficient to satisfy the
requirements of applicable Government Authorities, including the Federal Energy Regulatory
Commission, the NRC, the Florida Public Service Commission, the Florida Department of Revenue, and
other applicable tax authorities.

ARTICLE 7 — PRICE ADJUSTMENT PROVISIONS

     The amounts payable to the Contractor under [***] provisions of this Agreement, [***] shall be
subject to the [***].

ARTICLE 8 — PAYMENTS AND SECURITY

     8.1 Payments.

          (a) Payment for Time and Materials Work that is Not Construction Work. During
performance of the Work, Contractor shall invoice Owner monthly for Work performed on a Time and
Materials Basis that is not construction Work for charges incurred during the prior month.
Invoices for each month shall be submitted by Contractor to Owner by the tenth (10th)
Day of the following month. Payment shall be due from Owner within thirty (30) Days following
receipt of the invoice, subject to the conditions set forth below. Time and Materials Work that

          (b) Milestone Payments for [***] Work. During performance of the Work, Contractor
shall be paid for the [***] Work in accordance with the Milestone Payment Schedule in Exhibit
F-1. The applicable portion of the [***] will be invoiced by Contractor upon the completion
(or substantially completed as provided below) of each Payment Milestone. Submittal of each
invoice by Contractor for a Milestone Payment shall constitute a representation by Contractor that
it has performed and provided the Work required for such payment in accordance with this Agreement
or otherwise covered by such invoice, and that Contractor has paid all Subcontractors for all Work
performed and Equipment supplied under all previous Contractor invoices that are due and payable,
and are not the subject of a good faith dispute. Payment shall be due from Owner within thirty
(30) Days following receipt of the invoice, subject to the conditions set forth below. Payment
Milestones are not required to be completed in the sequence set forth in Exhibit F-1, nor
must invoices for completed Payment Milestones be submitted in the sequence set forth in
Exhibit F-1. Payment Milestones may be performed and invoiced no more than [***] ahead of
the time for the performance of such Work under the Project Schedule; and further provided, that
Contractor shall not submit an invoice for a Payment Milestone to the extent that the aggregate
value of all invoices submitted for Payment Milestones exceeds the sum of (i) the Milestone
Payments that were scheduled to be invoiced prior to the current calendar year, plus (ii) [***] of
the Milestone Payments scheduled to be invoiced in the current calendar year. However, the actual
amount of the invoice in excess of [***] of the current calendar year’s annual budget shall not
exceed the year end cash flow projection provided by Contractor to Owner by the last Business Day
of the third calendar quarter of that respective Year, unless otherwise agreed in a Change Order.
If agreed by Owner, Contractor shall have the option to invoice for substantially completed
Payment

Page 47

 

Milestones on a pro rata basis and any such agreement between Owner and Contractor shall
be set forth in a Change Order. Contractor shall keep Owner apprised of any material advancement
in the anticipated timing of Milestone Payment obligations.

          (c) Payment for Target Price Work and Time and Materials Construction Work. By
Tuesday, 12:00 p.m. Eastern Time of each week during performance of the Work, Contractor will
deliver to Owner an invoice for Target Price Work and Time and Materials Work for construction in
an electronic form that is readable by Owner’s computer system. The invoice shall cover (i) labor
and associated costs that were incurred and committed by Contractor during the prior week, and
(ii) other costs, such as bulk materials, equipment, rentals, travel, living expenses,
mobilization and the like that have been invoiced to Contractor and that are payable within the
next thirty (30) Days and have not previously been invoiced by Contractor to Owner. Payment of
invoices submitted by Contractor to Owner as provided
above shall be due from Owner by Thursday, 5:00 p.m. Eastern Time of the same week in which
the invoice is submitted. Exhibit F-2 provides an estimated payment schedule for Work to
be performed on a Time and Materials Basis and a Target Price Basis.

     8.2 Final Payment. Upon achievement of Final Completion, Contractor shall submit to Owner
an invoice for the final Milestone Payment and other payments due under this Agreement (the
“Final Payment Invoice”) which shall set forth the remaining amounts due to it pursuant to
this Agreement. When submitting the Final Payment Invoice, Contractor shall submit a final lien
waiver in the form set forth in Exhibit T-2 provided that the waiver shall be conditioned
on Contractor receiving payment pursuant to the Final Payment Invoice. Payment of the Final
Payment Invoice shall be due within thirty (30) Days following receipt of a correct invoice and the
documentation specified above, subject to all other applicable conditions set forth in this
Agreement. [***].

     8.3 Supporting Documentation; Payment Disputes. 

          (a) Contractor shall submit invoices in an agreed format. Contractor may designate in the
invoices that the amounts owed shall be paid in specified amounts to designated accounts;
provided, that [***] If Toshiba’s Senior Unsecured Credit Rating falls below BBB- or Baa3 from S&P
and Moody’s respectively or if Shaw’s Credit Rating falls below BBB- or Baa3 from S&P and Moody’s
respectively, then Contractor shall monthly for so long as the applicable credit ratings remain
below such thresholds provide to Owner interim lien waivers substantially in the form attached
hereto as Exhibit T-1 executed by the Subcontractors who have provided invoices that are
due and payable in an aggregate amount of goods and services in excess of [***]. Contractor shall
make available such documentation and materials as Owner may reasonably require substantiating
Contractor’s right to payment of any invoice. Milestone Payment invoices shall clearly indicate
the Payment Milestone which has been completed in connection with such invoice. Invoices for Work
performed by non-craft personnel on a Time and Materials Basis or Target Price Basis shall show
each employee’s name, classification, hours worked, task performed and applicable rate of
compensation to Contractor. Invoices for any Work performed by craft personnel on a Time and
Materials Basis or a Target Price Basis shall indicate tasks performed and shall show each
employee’s name, classification, hours worked, applicable rate of compensation to Contractor, and
rate paid by Contractor to Contractor’s employees. Prior to the time that the number of
Contractor

Page 48

 

Personnel working at the Site and Nearby Work Areas exceeds an average of one hundred
(100) workers for any consecutive four (4) week period, Contractor shall utilize a either a manual
or electronic “brassing” system to track entry and exit of its Personnel at the Site and Nearby
Work Areas for performance of the Work, and provide electronic timesheet data to Owner for
uploading into Owner’s electronic timekeeping system. Once the average number of Contractor
Personnel reaches one hundred (100) or more workers during four (4) consecutive weeks, Contractor
shall implement an electronic “brassing” or access control system to track which Contractor
Personnel are on the Site and Nearby Work Areas performing Work. Such electronic “brassing”
system shall feed the tracking employee information into Contractor’s electronic timekeeping
system. Contractor shall also ensure that it provides electronic timesheet data to Owner for
uploading into Owner’s electronic timekeeping system. In the
event that Contractor’s “brassing” system is not functional, Contractor may provide Owner an
alternate basis for the verification, reasonably acceptable to Owner, of the quantity of workers
located on the Site and Nearby Work Areas. In the event that Contractor does not provide such an
alternate basis for verification, reasonably acceptable to Owner, Contractor shall provide Owner
with access in order to conduct an audit to verify that the electronic timesheet data regarding
on-site labor corresponds to the quantity of workers located on the Site and Nearby Work Areas.
If Owner is entitled to conduct such an audit pursuant to the foregoing, Owner’s payment
obligations under Section 8.1(c) shall be extended by no more than three (3) additional
Business Days after the original due date of the applicable payment required under Section
8.1(c) in order to provide Owner adequate time to perform such audit prior to making such
payment. [***]. Bills of lading, and handling or shipping receipts for Equipment and materials
shall be attached, as applicable, to any invoice requesting payment for such Equipment and
materials. When transportation is prepaid, transportation receipts must also be attached to the
invoices. If any Construction Equipment has been used, the invoice must also specify the
Construction Equipment used, hours of usage, and rate of reimbursement for use. On-site labor,
material and equipment costs, and freight charges must appear separately on the invoice. Any Tax
paid on material or Equipment must be shown separately from the sale or rental price of those
items.

          (b) Payments and invoices will include tax information as required by Article 26.

          (c) If any invoice is deficient in any material respect, Contractor may be required by Owner
to resubmit that invoice in proper form; provided, however, that Owner shall pay any portion of
the invoice that is not deficient or subject to dispute, and shall pay any disputed amount to the
extent required by Section 8.3(d). Owner shall review each invoice and shall identify
exceptions, if any, by providing Contractor with written notice stating the basis for such
exceptions on or before the due date, to the extent any exceptions are discovered prior to the due
date.

          (d) Payment shall not waive Owner’s right to dispute an invoice. Any amount of an invoice
that Owner disputes shall be resolved in accordance with Article 27.

     (i) Should a payment dispute not be settled within ten (10) Days of the due
date, Owner shall pay the disputed amount including, without limitation, amounts
disputed with respect to a Change, except Owner may [***].

Page 49

 

     (ii) Once the dispute is resolved, Owner shall pay any additional amount due or
Contractor shall refund any amount by which it was overpaid, as applicable, within
five (5) Business Days after the date of the final resolution, together with
interest at a rate equal to the [***] per annum, applied from the original due date
of the payment until paid, or in the case of any overpayment, from the date paid
until refunded by Contractor.

          (e) If Owner fails to pay Contractor undisputed sums due and owing by the due date or, fails
to pay the required portion of any disputed amounts by the date required as set forth in
Section 8.3(d)(i) above, Contractor shall notify Owner of the overdue payment, and a
late payment charge shall accrue at a rate equal to the [***] per annum from the due date;
provided, that with respect to weekly payments owed in accordance with Section 8.1(c), no
interest will accrue under this Section 8.3(e) for the first [***] a payment is late
unless there have been two or more other late payments during the [***] period prior to the due
date.

     8.4
[***] 
      8.5 No Acceptance by Payment. Owner’s payment of any invoice does not
constitute approval or acceptance of any Work, item or cost in that invoice, nor shall payment
constitute a waiver of any rights or remedies, and shall not be construed to relieve Contractor of
any of its obligations under this Agreement.

     8.6 Security for Payments from Contractor. As a material inducement for Owner to enter
into this Agreement, Westinghouse agrees to supply to Owner a Parent Company Guarantee from
Toshiba, and Stone & Webster agrees to supply to Owner a Parent Company Guarantee from Shaw, in the
forms set forth as Exhibit W-1 and Exhibit W-2 as applicable. Each Parent Company
Guarantee shall be signed by an officer of Toshiba and Shaw, respectively, and shall be delivered
to Owner on the Effective Date. The Parent Company Guarantee by Toshiba and by Shaw shall each be
accompanied by a certificate of incumbency signed by the Secretary (or equivalent) of Toshiba and
Shaw, respectively, certifying that the person signing each Parent Company Guarantee is fully
authorized to sign the guarantee on behalf of Toshiba and Shaw.

     8.7 Manner of Payment. All payments due under this Agreement shall be paid by electronic
transfer to the accounts specified in a Notice from Contractor.

     8.8 Cash Flow Accruals. The Contractor shall provide monthly accruals to the Owner by no
later than noon on the last Business Day of the month. The accruals will reflect (a) the estimated
cost of Work that will be completed during that month, which are to be reflected on the invoices
issued during the next month, and (b) the estimated total amount for Work that will be invoiced,
due, and payable by the end of the then current Year. The accruals shall reflect the estimated
project and task totals in a manner consistent with the pricing in this Agreement, identifying
separately the price of Equipment, labor and miscellaneous expenses.

     8.9 Work Completed Accruals. No later than noon on the last Business Day prior to the end
of each Year, Contractor shall supply to Owner an estimate of the percentage of completion of Work
being performed [***] and the corresponding dollar value for such completed Work, including Major
Components and major modules that are being manufactured, fabricated or assembled on or off the
Site or Nearby Work Areas.

Page 50

 

     8.10 Cash Flow Covenant. The Contractor shall work with Owner and shall use commercially
reasonable efforts to optimize Owner’s cash flow in order to reduce Owner’s financing costs for the
Work; provided, however, that in no event shall Contractor be required to make any changes or
modifications that adversely impact Contractor’s cost, cash flow, demonstrated risk or the
execution of the Work unless the Parties mutually agree to a Change Order pursuant to Article
9 prior to implementing such changes or modifications to Owner’s cash flow. The Parties will
evaluate potential impacts to cost and schedule in conjunction with proposed changes to the cash
flow.

     (xvi) a change in Industry Codes and Standards; or

     (xvii) any other event or circumstance specifically identified in this
Agreement as constituting a Change or entitling Owner or Contractor to seek a Change
Order.

          (b) Contractor’s Entitlement to Change Order. To the extent that the event or
circumstance that is the basis for the Change is not due to any act, fault, omission, or breach by
Contractor with respect to its obligations under this Agreement, and provided that the event or
occurrence adversely affects Contractor’s or its Subcontractors’ ability to perform the Work,
increases the cost of the Work, affects the Contractor’s ability to achieve the Performance
Guarantees or Warranties or any other obligations under this Agreement, or causes Contractor to be
unable to meet the requirements of the Milestone Performance Schedule, Contractor shall,
consistent with other applicable terms and conditions of this Agreement, be entitled to an
adjustment as appropriate to the Contract Price, the Milestone Performance Schedule, the Milestone
Payment Schedule, the Guaranteed Substantial Completion Date, the Scope of Work and/or such other
parts of this Agreement as may be affected by such Change. Any such Change shall be authorized by

shortfall. [***].

          (g) Owner Held Contingency (OHC) Usage. [***].

          (h) [***].

     9.2 Owner-Directed Changes. 

          (a) Standard Plant. It is the intent of the Parties to preserve the standard design
for the AP1000 Nuclear Power Plant, including the approach to the supply chain, construction,
licensing, operation and maintenance of the Standard Plant to the greatest extent practical.
Owner’s right to direct a Change in the Standard Plant design for the Facility as provided in
Section 9.4 is limited to a Change that:

          (i) is requested by Owner or the First Wave Utility Customers, to be considered
by Contractor in the same manner and subject to the same standards as Contractor
applies to the design and engineering comments received from Owner or the First Wave
Utility Customers under Section 3.8(a); or

          (ii) is reasonably necessary due to specific Facility related issues, or is
necessary to satisfy the requirements of the COL or any Governmental Authority.

          (b) Other than Standard Plant. Owner may direct a Change concerning any Work that is
not part of the Standard Plant design for the Facility as provided in Section 9.4, so long
as it is technically feasible and in accordance with Good Industry Practices.

     9.3 No Oral Changes. Contractor shall not comply with oral Owner-directed Changes in the
Work. If Contractor believes that any oral notice or instruction received from Owner will involve
a Change in the cost, time to perform or integrity of the Work, it shall require that the notice or
instruction be given by Owner in writing and shall then proceed according to the provisions of
Section 9.4. Contractor shall neither be required to perform nor be entitled to a Change
Order with respect to any oral Owner-directed Change. Any cost to perform oral Changes shall be
for Contractor’s account, and Contractor waives any and all rights to claim from Owner for such
costs or
additional time to perform the Work as a result of compliance by Contractor with such oral Changes.

Page 53

 

     9.4 Change Orders.

          (a) Subject to Sections 9.1, 9.2 and 9.3, Owner or Contractor (as applicable) shall
submit a Notice of any proposed Change to the other Party. Promptly following such Notice,
Contractor shall provide Owner the following as such information becomes available:

     (i) details of the effect of the Change on the provisions of the Agreement,
including any cost, Project Schedule or Milestone Performance Schedule impacts;

     (ii) options to mitigate the costs or delays associated with the Change;

     (iii) when required, an evaluation of the impact on the Licensing Basis as of
the date of the proposed Change;

     (iv) a written description of the proposed Change to the Work, including any
adjustment(s) to the Established Target Price (if applicable) and the Contract Price
or the Project Schedule or the Milestone Performance Schedule;

     (v) a written proposal for executing the Work as changed; provided such
proposal shall to the extent commercially reasonable have the aim to mitigate the
impact of the proposed Change on this Agreement, including the changes to the Work
taken as a whole; and

     (vi) any proposed revisions to this Agreement.

Contractor shall provide Owner such supporting documentation for the foregoing as Owner may
reasonably request. Owner shall, as soon as practicable after receipt of such submittal and
supporting documentation, respond with any comments or questions. If Owner responds with comments
or questions, Contractor shall endeavor to address such comments or answer such questions as soon
as practicable.

[***].

          (b) If Owner accepts such written proposal (as the same may have been modified by mutual
agreement of the Parties), or the Parties otherwise agree to a Change, Owner shall issue a written
order to Contractor setting forth the revisions to this Agreement as provided in such agreed upon
written proposal or as otherwise agreed to by the Parties (the “Change Order”). If the
Parties cannot agree upon the revisions to this Agreement to be effected as a result of a Change,
Owner shall be entitled to issue a Change Order (subject to the limitations set forth in this
Article 9) that Owner, in good faith, believes complies with Section 9.4, which
revisions shall include those revisions as the Parties may have agreed upon, and Contractor shall
perform its obligations hereunder as modified by such Change Order and to the extent not in
violation of applicable Law, provided that such performance shall be without prejudice to
Contractor’s right to dispute the revisions to this Agreement to which the Parties
could not agree and the Parties shall resolve the dispute in accordance with the Dispute
Resolution procedures set forth in Article 27.

Page 54

 

          (c) Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 9.4(b), but subject to the provisions
of Sections 9.1, 9.2 and 9.3, in exigent circumstances Owner may issue a Change Order to
Contractor, with respect to additional work that was not in the Contractor’s original Scope of
Work, in lieu of the Notice of proposed Change described in Section 9.4(a), and Contractor
will diligently proceed with the Work as changed. Promptly upon receipt of any such Change Order,
Contractor shall supply to Owner the information described in Section 9.4(a), and the
Change Order will be amended in writing as soon as practical thereafter to comply with the
requirements of Section 9.4(b). If Owner issues a Change Order under this Section
9.4(c) or if a Change Order is issued under Section 9.4(b) above but there is no
agreement among the Parties on the pricing or the adjustment to the Contract Price in connection
with such Change Order, then Contractor shall perform the Work specified in the Change Order and
shall be paid on a Time and Materials Basis, using the rates in Exhibit G. Either Party
may submit to Dispute Resolution the determination of the revisions to this Agreement to be
effected as a result of a Change under this Section 9.4(c) including the appropriate price
change relating to the portion of the Work specified in such Change Order which Contractor has not
completed on or prior to the DRB’s decision. Until a ruling has been issued pursuant to such
Dispute Resolution process, Contractor shall be paid on a Time and Materials Basis as described
above.

          (d) If Contractor provides the Change Order proposal and/or information required under
Section 9.4(a) because of a request for same from Owner or because of an event or
circumstance that ultimately results in a Change, then, a Change Order shall be issued to
reimburse Contractor for all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by Contractor in complying

provide a written description of its proposed changes thereto within thirty (30) Days of its
receipt of such Start-up Test procedures. Contractor will provide the final Start-up Test
procedures to Owner for its review and approval at least sixty (60) Days in advance of the
testing. If Owner requests a change to the Start-up Test procedures that goes beyond the scope of
the Standard Plant procedures, then Contractor shall be entitled to seek a Change Order pursuant
to Article 9. Owner is responsible for conducting the Start-up Tests in accordance with
the Project Schedule after all requirements for Ready for Start-up Test Date have been satisfied.
Contractor shall provide Technical Direction and consultation to Owner during these tests.

          (d) Contractor shall give notice to Owner of the date (the “Ready for Start-up Test
Date”) when Mechanical Completion of the Unit has occurred, Construction and Installation
Testing of all relevant Systems and Equipment have been satisfactorily completed, Preoperational
Testing has been satisfactorily completed, all relevant Facility Manuals are finalized and
delivered, and the Unit is ready for start-up and performance of the Start-up Tests, or would
have been ready except for delays for which Contractor is not responsible, for the Start-up Tests
to begin. If delays for which Contractor is not responsible delay any Start-up Test by more than
[***] from the Ready for Start-up Test Date, the Work shall be deemed to have been suspended on
the date that such [***] period expires as if Owner had directed such suspension in accordance
with Section 22.1(a). If such delays continue for an additional [***] after the Ready for
Start-up Test Date, then, 1) Contractor shall be entitled to receive payments under the Milestone
Payment Schedule for those Milestone and Progress Payments that would have come due through
Substantial Completion, 2) Contractor’s obligations with respect to the Guaranteed Substantial
Completion Date shall have been met, and 3) the commencement of the Warranty Periods associated
with Substantial Completion shall begin. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Owner will not be
required to make payment to Contractor for the Work of performing Start-up Tests, Performance
Tests or Punch List items until such Start-up Testing and Performance Testing related Work or
Punch List items have been performed.

          (e) Should the Start-up Test results indicate that the Unit or any System or Equipment is not
performing in accordance with the applicable Specifications or other requirements of this
Agreement, Contractor shall promptly repair, replace or otherwise correct the deficiency and
re-perform any Construction and Installation Test on the affected Equipment or System as required
by Good Industry Practice. The affected Preoperational Test(s) will then be re-performed on the
affected Equipment or System unless deemed unnecessary by Owner. After such corrective work and
retesting has been performed, Start-up Tests shall be re-
performed on affected Equipment or System(s) unless deemed unnecessary by Owner. The
Performance Testing and the other Work and obligations that follow the Start-up Tests shall not be
delayed or held up for the completion of the Notices and Acceptance documentation process
described in Section 12.4(b).

Page 60

 

          (f) Contractor shall supply detailed Documentation, as specified in the test procedures, of
the testing and the test results to Owner within thirty (30) Days after the Start-up Tests have
been completed.

     11.5 Performance Tests, Other Tests and Guarantees.

          (a) Performance Test Procedures. Contractor shall develop the Performance Test
procedures consistent with its procedures for the Standard Plant and Contractor’s document
APP-GW-T1R-600, (AP1000 Performance Test Requirements and Bases), as revised as of the Effective
Date, and Contractor shall provide the Performance Test procedures to Owner at least one hundred
and eighty (180) Days in advance of the Ready for Performance Test Date, which shall be subject to
the Owner’s Acceptance, which Acceptance shall not be unreasonably withheld (the “Performance
Test Procedures”). The Performance Test Procedures shall be sufficiently detailed for the
Parties to conduct the Performance Tests in a manner that will demonstrate compliance with the
Performance Guarantees, and shall include or reference the methodologies for calculating the test
results, including the tolerances and correction curves to be applied to the test results. After
the Performance Test Procedures have been Accepted by Owner, they shall not be revised without
Owner’s prior written concurrence. The Documentation with respect to the performance of the tests
and results of the tests shall be created and maintained by Contractor and delivered to Owner
within fifteen (15) Days following Substantial Completion.

          (b) Owner and Contractor Responsibilities. During Performance Testing, Owner shall
provide all consumables, semi-skilled and skilled labor, fully trained and licensed operators and
such other material or services that are reasonably requested by Contractor for the tests in
accordance with the Project Schedule. Contractor shall maintain an adequate construction staff
and labor on the Site and Nearby Work Areas to support the performance testing process and minor
remedial efforts that may be required within Contractor’s Scope of the Work.

          (c) Performance Tests. Subject to Section 11.6, Owner shall perform the
Performance Tests under the Technical Direction of Contractor in accordance with the Performance
Test Procedures and as allowed by applicable plant operating procedures. In accordance with
APP-GW-T1R-600, (AP1000 Performance Test Requirements and Bases), the Performance Tests [***]
shall consist of the following tests: (i) Net Unit Electrical Output Test, (referred to as the
Turbine Generator Output Test in APP-GW-T1R-600), (ii) Moisture Carryover Test, and (iii) the
Cooling Tower Performance Test. The Reactor Coolant Pump and Flow Measurement Tests and Steam
Generator Zero Leakage Tests shall be performed in accordance with the associated manufacturing,
Preoperational Test and Start-up Test procedures as specified in Sections 11.5(g) and
11.5(h), respectively. In addition, certain baseline performance data shall be collected
during the Performance Tests as set forth in
Sections 11.5(j) and 11.5(k). The Performance Tests may be accomplished concurrently
and will not necessarily be conducted as separate, sequential tests. Acceptance criteria
associated with specific Performance Tests are provided below. To the extent such acceptance
criteria are not covered below, such acceptance criteria shall be as designated in the Performance
Test Procedures.

Page 61

 

(d) Net Unit Electrical Output Test and Related Guarantees.

          (i) Net Unit Electrical Output Test. The “Net Unit Electrical
Output Test” shall be run to determine whether the Unit meets the Net Unit
Electrical Output Guarantee [***]. The Net Unit Electrical Output Test for each
Unit shall be conducted in material compliance with Power Test Code 46 (PTC-46) with
the Net Unit Electrical Output [***] for the periods and duration described in this
Section 11.5(d)(i). The Net Unit Electrical Output Test shall consist of at
least four (4) test runs of a minimum of two (2) hours in duration per test run.
Upon evaluation of the data, if three (3) or more of the test runs are found
invalid, additional runs will be made after required remedial work, if any, is
performed by the responsible Party. The measurement frequency shall be in
compliance with PTC-46 throughout the Net Unit Electrical Output Test. Data
collected within each test run will be averaged after each of the results is
corrected to guarantee reference conditions in accordance with PTC-46, and then the
Net Unit Electrical Outputs from the test runs that are found valid shall be
averaged for purposes of determining the applicable Net Unit Electrical Output
liquidated damages and bonuses.

          (ii) Net Unit Electrical Output Guarantee. Subject to the limits of
liability on liquidated damages set forth in Section 11.5(d)(ii)(B) and
subject to the provisions in Section 11.5(d)(ii)(C) and Section
11.5(d)(iv), Contractor guarantees that each Unit, when loaded with the Nuclear
Fuel and operated in accordance with Operating Procedures and Maintenance Procedures
and Facility Manuals, shall produce the Net Unit Electrical Output of [***] MWe as
evidenced by the Net Unit Electrical Output Test (the “Net Unit Electrical
Output Guarantee”).

          (A) In the event a Unit [***] does not meet the Net Unit Electrical
Output Guarantee, Contractor shall engage in an engineering review and
analysis of the performance deficiency, in consultation with Owner, to
determine possible options to correct the deficiency or improve the output.

          (1) If such identified performance correction or improvement
would cost less than the applicable Performance Liquidated Damages
otherwise payable hereunder, Contractor shall perform the correction
or improvement, at its own expense, on a schedule as mutually agreed
to by the Parties.

          (2) If such identified performance correction or improvement
would cost more than the applicable Performance Liquidated Damages
otherwise payable hereunder, then Contractor shall be liable to Owner
for the Performance Liquidated Damages specified in Section
11.5(d)(ii)(B), or Owner may elect to direct Contractor to make
such performance corrections or improvements, provided that Owner
waives the collection of the

Page 62

 

applicable Performance Liquidated
Damages and Owner pays Contractor, on terms consistent with
Article 8, the cost of the performance correction and
improvement work which exceeds the waived Performance Liquidated
Damages amount. However, any such payments for performance
correction and improvement work that exceeds the cost of the waived
Performance Liquidated Damages shall only include payment for Direct
Costs plus SGA/G&A and other mark-ups applied to such Direct Costs
pursuant to Exhibit G (without any Profit).

          (3) If the performance corrections or improvements are not
performed or if following such work the Unit fails to achieve the Net
Unit Electrical Output Guarantee when re-testing is performed, then
the Contractor shall be liable to the Owner for the Performance
Liquidated Damages specified in Section 11.5(d)(ii)(B) to the
extent the applicable Performance Liquidated Damages have not been
waived under Section 11.5(d)(ii)(A)(2) above. If Contractor
pays Performance Liquidated Damages with respect to Net Unit
Electrical Output, then following consultation with the Owner
regarding the scheduling of the work, Contractor shall be permitted
to make further repairs, replacements, adjustments or modifications
to improve the performance of the Unit. If such repairs,
replacements, adjustments or modifications by Contractor cause the
Unit to be able to meet the Net Unit Electrical Output Guarantee or
Contractor has been able to increase the Net Unit Electrical Output
from the level at which the Performance Liquidated Damages were
previously paid, in each case as demonstrated by a Net Unit
Electrical Output Test supported by Contractor at its own expense,
then Contractor shall be entitled to a refund of all or the prorated
portion of the Performance Liquidated Damages paid by Contractor.

          (B) The Parties agree that Owner will suffer actual damages in the
event that a Unit fails to meet the Net Unit Electrical Output Guarantee and
that it would be extremely difficult and impracticable under presently known
and anticipated facts and circumstances to ascertain and fix such actual
damages Owner would incur, and, accordingly, if a Unit does not meet the Net
Unit Electrical Output Guarantee due to Contractor’s failure to perform the
Work in accordance herewith after taking remedial efforts as may be required
under Section 11.5(d)(ii)(A) or 11.5(d)(iv), Owner’s
sole remedy (subject to the limitations in Section 37.2) for
such failure (but in addition to any applicable remedies specified in
Section 11.5(d)(iv)) shall be to recover from Contractor as
liquidated damages and not as a penalty [***]. Contractor shall be liable
to pay liquidated damages as specified above for Net Unit Electrical Output
shortfalls that exist following completion of Contractor’s remedial efforts
per Section 11.5(d)(ii)(A) or 11.5(d)(iv), as applicable, and
subject to the limit of

Page 63

 

liability specified in Section 17.2.
Performance Liquidated Damages shall be due thirty (30) Days following the
date Owner gives Notice to Contractor that Performance Liquidated Damages
are payable.

          (C) The Net Unit Electrical Output Guarantee is subject to the
conditions stated in Section 14.9 and to the following conditions:

     (1) Owner has provided access to the electrical grid and
sufficient system load to perform the test.

     (2) The Net Unit Electrical Output Guarantee is based upon the
Unit operating at the conditions specified in Exhibit L. If
conditions during the test differ from those specified, appropriate
adjustments shall be made to the Net Unit Electrical Output using
graphs, tables and other data as set forth in Exhibit L and
as set forth in the Performance Test Procedures prepared by
Contractor, and Accepted by Owner in advance of performing the
Performance Tests as provided in Section 11.5(a).

     (3) Necessary auxiliary equipment for producing the Net Unit
Electrical Output shall include only the Equipment loads provided in
Exhibit L.

     (4) The Net Unit Electrical Output Guarantee shall be
demonstrated by the Net Unit Electrical Output Test to be conducted
at the times and subject to the conditions set forth herein.

Satisfactory completion of such test or re-test or the payment of Net Unit
Electrical Output Performance Liquidated Damages to Owner subject to the conditions
set forth in this Section 11.5(d)(ii)(C) shall relieve Contractor of any
further obligation with respect to the Net Unit Electrical Output Guarantee, but
shall not affect or diminish Contractor’s obligation to satisfy any other
Performance Guarantee or the Warranties set forth in Article 14.

       (iii) Net Unit Electrical Output Bonus. In the event that the Net Unit
Electric Output, as determined by the Net Unit Electrical Output Test, exceeds the
Net Unit Electrical Output Guarantee, then Contractor shall be entitled to receive
as a bonus an amount equal to [***]. Contractor shall be entitled to invoice the
Owner for any bonus earned following completion of the Net Unit Electrical
Output Test, and payment from Owner shall be due within thirty (30) days
following receipt of such invoice.

       (iv) [***].

          (e) Moisture Carryover Test [***].

Page 64

 

     (i) Moisture Carryover Test. The “Moisture Carryover Test”,
shall be run to determine whether the Unit meets the Moisture Carryover [***]. The
steam from the two (2) steam generators per Unit shall be sampled while the Unit is
operating at a nominal rating of one hundred percent (100%) licensed thermal power.
If the Unit is unable to reach one hundred percent (100%) licensed thermal power,
the test may be run at a power level [***]. The “Moisture Carryover” is
measured using a tracer method. The method involves the addition of a known
quantity of a suitable tracer to the secondary system. After a prescribed
equilibrium time, samples are simultaneously withdrawn from each steam generator
blowdown line, the main steam lines and the main feedwater lines. The concentration
ratio of the tracer found in the steam sample to that found in the liquid sample is
used to calculate the Moisture Carryover.

     (ii) Moisture Carryover [***]. Contractor [***], subject to the
provisions of this Agreement and in accordance with the Operating Procedures,
Maintenance Procedures and Facility Manuals, that each Unit, when completed and
loaded with Nuclear Fuel, will produce steam with a Moisture Carryover limit of less
than or equal to 0.25 percent at the exit of the steam generator dryers (the
“Moisture Carryover [***]”). [***].

     [***]

          (f) Cooling Tower Performance Test [***]. A “Cooling Tower Performance Test”
shall be performed in accordance with Cooling Technology Institute CTI-ATC-105 and ASME PTC-23
[***].

          (g) Reactor Coolant Pump and Flow Measurement Tests [***]. Prior to shipping the
reactor coolant pumps to the Site, each pump shall undergo loop testing. During the
Preoperational Tests and Start-up Tests, (A) pressure measurements will be taken to verify the
pressure drops within the reactor coolant system are within the specified design range set forth
in the Preoperational Test procedures and Start-up Test procedures, and (B) a reactor coolant
system flow measurement test shall be performed to demonstrate that the reactor coolant pumps for
each Unit produce a reactor coolant system flow that falls within the Technical Specifications
flow requirements of such Unit [***].

          (h) Steam Generator Zero Leakage Test [***]. As part of the manufacturing process
for each steam generator, a hydrostatic test shall be performed, in accordance with the standard
steam generator manufacturing specifications, to verify that there is no detectable leakage from
the primary side to the secondary side. If any steam generator has any detectable leakage from
the primary side to the secondary side then Contractor shall perform, at its own
expense, such repair, replacement, adjustment or modification to the affected steam generator
as necessary so that there is no detectable leakage. [***].

          (i) [***].

          (j) Major Equipment Operation and Collection of Performance Baseline Data. In
addition to data gathered as part of conducting the Performance Tests, during the

Page 65

 

Performance
Tests, data will be taken to allow verification of the proper operation of and to obtain baseline
performance data for the following other major components of Equipment:

	 	•	 	Steam Turbine Generators
	 
	 	•	 	Moisture Separator Reheaters
	 
	 	•	 	Feedwater Heaters
	 
	 	•	 	Condenser
	 
	 	•	 	Main Cooling Towers
	 
	 	•	 	Feedwater Pumps
	 
	 	•	 	Circulating Water Pumps
	 
	 	•	 	Condensate Pumps

          (k) NSSS Thermal Performance Test. The “NSSS Thermal Performance Test”,
shall be run at [***] licensed thermal power, if achievable, as indicated by the secondary
calorimetric; provided that, if the thermal power output [***] the Unit shall be operating with a
Net Unit Electrical Output [***] in order to commence the NSSS Thermal Performance Test. The NSSS
Thermal Performance Test shall be run during a period of continuous operation of [***]. Such test
shall be satisfactorily completed when the Unit has operated for such continuous period. The
measurement frequency shall be, at a minimum, every sixty (60) minutes throughout the NSSS Thermal
Performance Test. If during the conducting of the NSSS Thermal Performance Test, the Net Unit
Electrical Output, as determined based on a rolling four (4) hour average measured at one hour
intervals [***], not due to any action or inaction by Owner or its Personnel, or an event of Force
Majeure, then such [***] test shall be re-started once the Net Unit Electrical Output returns to a
value [***]. If, however, during the conducting of the NSSS Thermal Performance Test, the Net Unit
Electrical Output is [***] due to any action or inaction by Owner, its Personnel, or an event of
Force Majeure or if there is a delay in conducting the NSSS Thermal Performance Test that is due
to any action or inaction by Owner, its Personnel, or an event of Force Majeure, the hours of
continuous operation performed prior to such reduction or delay shall be credited toward the
period of [***] of continuous operation once the NSSS Thermal Performance Test is resumed. [***].
If the cumulative delays in conducting the NSSS Thermal Performance Test or cumulative time
periods of reductions in Net Unit Electrical Output [***] during the conducting of the NSSS
Thermal Performance Test that are due to any action or inaction by Owner, its Personnel or an
event of Force Majeure exceed [***] and the Unit has demonstrated the capability of operating at a
Net Unit Electrical Output [***] during the Start-up Tests and any partially completed NSSS
Performance Test, then Contractor shall be entitled to receive the Milestone Payment that would be
due for achieving Substantial Completion and the Warranty Periods associated with Substantial
Completion shall commence, provided that the other requirements of Substantial Completion which
are not related to the NSSS Thermal Performance Test have been met. Such a payment
shall not waive or affect any of the other obligations of Contractor under this Agreement
including the obligation to complete the NSSS Thermal Performance Test. In this circumstance once
the reasons for such delays or reductions in power have been resolved, if requested by Owner,
Contractor shall support Owner in conducting or completing the NSSS Thermal Performance Test.

          (l) Allowable Contractor Actions to Correct Performance Deficiencies. After Unit
Mechanical Completion has occurred and prior to the Guaranteed Substantial Completion Date for a
Unit, Contractor shall have the right to take appropriate action(s) consistent with the other
requirements of this Agreement to correct deficiencies and improve a Unit’s performance associated
with the Performance Guarantees of Section 11.5. Contractor shall have the right to take
such action, in consultation with the Owner and not require Owner’s prior approval, provided that
such action [***] is not contrary to the COL or the DCD, and (v) otherwise complies with the
requirements of this Agreement. Otherwise, Contractor shall obtain Owner’s prior approval which
shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed.

     11.6 Readiness for Performance Tests. Contractor shall give reasonable prior Notice to
Owner of the date (the “Ready for Performance Test Date”) when the Unit is ready for the
Performance Tests. However, if the Ready for Performance Test Date has not occurred by the date
[***] after the Ready for Start-up Test Date, because of delays not caused by or otherwise
attributable to Contractor, then the date [***] after the Ready for Start-up Test Date shall for
all purposes of this Agreement be the Ready for Performance Test Date.

          (a) If on or after the Ready for Performance Test Date there is a delay in conducting the
Performance Tests, that is caused by any action or inaction by Owner, its Personnel, or an event
of Force Majeure, the Work shall be deemed to have been suspended by Owner on the Ready for
Performance Test Date as if Owner had directed a suspension without cause in accordance with
Section 22.1(a). In connection with such a delay the Parties shall determine as part of
the Change Order process such matters as (A) maintenance procedures for the Unit to be followed by
Owner until the Performance Tests can occur, (B) whether or not Contractor should demobilize its
forces for the duration of the suspension, and (C) if demobilization is to occur, Contractor
Personnel that shall either remain on the Site and Nearby Work Areas for the purpose of monitoring
the maintenance of the Units and/or be permitted to examine the Unit and Owner’s maintenance
records on a routine basis to determine whether the agreed maintenance procedures are being
followed.

          (b) If a suspension of the Work under Section 22.1(a) or 22.1(c) and/or a
deemed suspension under Section 11.6(a) delays the Performance Tests by more than [***]
from the Ready for Performance Test Date, then (provided the other requirements of Substantial
Completion, which are not related to or part of the delayed Performance Tests, have been met)
Contractor shall be entitled to the Milestone Payment and Progress Payment that would be due upon
Substantial Completion minus the amount of the Milestone Payment or Progress Payment attributable
to the Technical Direction to have been provided by Contractor for such Performance Tests.
Payment of the specified Milestone Payment or Progress Payment shall not waive or affect any of
the obligations of Contractor under this Agreement.

          (c) In the event after a suspension of Work under Section 22.1(a) or 22.1(c)
and/or a deemed suspension under Section 11.6(a), Owner is ready for the Performance Tests
to be conducted, Contractor shall (if applicable) re-mobilize at the Site and Nearby Work Areas on
a mutually agreed date and shall proceed to conduct the Performance Tests, followed by the other
activities required to achieve Substantial Completion and Final Completion. The Project Schedule
and Contract Price shall be revised subject to the Change Order provisions of Article 9 to
reflect the additional time and cost, if any, that Contractor will require for the performance

Page 67

 

of
the Performance Tests as a result of changed circumstances in its staffing and other factors
resulting from the delay in performance of the tests. Prior to initiating the Performance Tests,
Contractor shall have the right to assess whether any degradation to the operational performance
of the Unit has occurred. To the extent that degradation to the operational performance of the
Unit has occurred for reasons other than due to the acts or omissions of Contractor or its
Personnel, such degradation shall constitute a Change and Contractor shall be entitled to seek a
Change Order pursuant to Article 9 for the costs and time required to perform corrections
to the Unit to return it to a state ready for the Performance Tests, assuming such correction can
be reasonably performed. Should the Unit when tested fail to fully meet any of the Performance
Guarantees, the applicable provisions of Section 11.5 shall apply. Contractor shall
promptly give Notice to Owner of the Unit’s readiness for any required re-test, specifying the
time and date of such test, provided that such date shall provide Owner reasonable time to prepare
to support the re-test.

          (d) If a suspension of Work under Section 22.1(a) or 22.1(c) and/or a deemed
suspension under Section 11.6(a), delays the Performance Tests by more than [***] from the
Ready for Performance Test Date, then, if the Warranty Period has not already commenced, the
Warranty Period shall commence on such date unless the Parties have mutually agreed to a Change
Order that extends the Warranty Period or the commencement thereof.

          (e) If a suspension of Work under Section 22.1(a) or 22.1(c) and/or a deemed
suspension under Section 11.6(a), delays the Performance Tests by more than [***] from the
Ready for Performance Test Date, then Contractor’s sole responsibility hereunder with respect to
such Performance Tests and the Performance Guarantees shall be to provide Technical Direction for
the testing on a Time and Materials Basis.

     11.7 Retesting. In the event that any retesting is required under this Agreement, the
results of such retesting shall be adjusted to take into account normal degradation of Equipment,
wear and tear and other impacts to the originally demonstrated level of performance of the Unit
that arise from the normal operation of the Unit or Facility.

     11.8 [***].

     11.9 Performance Guarantee Remedies. Performance of remedies specified and payment of
Performance Liquidated Damages under the conditions specified in this Article 11 shall be
Owner’s sole and exclusive remedy for a Unit’s
failure to achieve the applicable Performance Guarantee(s), subject to the limitations set forth in
Section 37.2.

ARTICLE 12 — STAGES OF COMPLETION

upon Owner Accepting
Turnover of the final System as provided in Section 12.1(b) and this Section
12.2(b). Owner shall Accept the Unit as having achieved Mechanical Completion, by delivering
to Contractor Notice of that Acceptance within five (5) Business Days following receipt of
Contractor’s Notice regarding Turnover of the last System required for Mechanical Completion; or
alternatively, Owner may disagree that Mechanical Completion has occurred by notifying Contractor
in writing of why it disagrees that Mechanical Completion has occurred.

     12.3 Preoperational Test Completion.

          (a) “Preoperational Test Completion” shall have occurred upon the Preoperational
Tests having been satisfactorily completed with acceptance criteria based on the objectives of the
Preoperational Tests as provided in Section 11.3(a).

          (b) Contractor shall notify Owner when the provisions of Section 12.3(a) have been
satisfied. Such notification shall include detailed Documentation demonstrating that all
acceptance criteria have been satisfied or, with Owner’s written concurrence, addressed as a
Preoperational Test Completion follow-up item. Owner shall Accept the Unit as having achieved
Preoperational Test Completion, by delivering to Contractor Notice of that Acceptance within five
(5) Business Days following receipt of Contractor’s Notice that Preoperational Test Completion has
occurred; or alternatively, Owner may disagree that Preoperational Test Completion has occurred by
notifying Contractor in writing of why it disagrees that Preoperational Test Completion has
occurred.

     12.4 Start-up Test Completion.

in accordance with Good Industry Practices without restrictions within Contractor’s control; and
(iii) Owner Accepting in writing, the Unit as having achieved Start-up Test Completion based on
meeting the objective test criteria as stated in the Start-Up Test procedures. If during the
Start-up Tests the Unit does not reach [***] licensed power in accordance with Good Industry
Practices without restrictions within Contractor’s control; but Owner Accepts in writing the Unit
as having achieved Start-up Test Completion based on meeting the objective test criteria as stated
in the Start-Up Test procedures, and the Unit achieves a power level
output that is [***], then Contractor shall be obligated to work to improve the power output
in accordance with the requirements of Section 11.5, but for all other purposes Contractor
shall be deemed to have achieved Start-up Test Completion and Contractor shall continue with the
completion of the remainder of the Work.

          (b) Contractor shall notify Owner when the provisions of Section 12.4(a) have been
satisfied. Such notification shall include detailed Documentation demonstrating that all
acceptance criteria have been satisfied or, with Owner’s written concurrence, addressed as a
Start-up Test Completion follow-up item. Owner shall Accept such Unit as having achieved Start-Up
Test Completion, by delivering to Contractor Notice of Acceptance within five (5) Business Days
following receipt of Contractor’s Notice that Start-Up Test Completion has occurred; or
alternatively, Owner may disagree that Start-up Test Completion has occurred by giving Contractor

Page 70

 

     12.5 Substantial Completion. 

          (a) “Substantial Completion” shall have occurred upon all of the following criteria
having been satisfied:

     (i) the Performance Tests shall have met the performance criteria in accordance
with Section 11.5(c) through (h) (including any re-testing) or Contractor
shall have paid any liquidated damages that may be payable under such Sections, and
the NSSS Thermal Performance Test has been completed in accordance with Section
11.5(k);

     (ii) Contractor has completed the Work associated with the applicable Unit and
related Ancillary Facilities in accordance with the requirements of this Agreement,
except for (A) Punch List items, (B) obligations under the Warranties, and (C) the
Work described under Section 11.5(d)(ii)(A) that is associated with
improving the Net Unit Electrical Output [***];

     (iii) the Unit is operating [***] consistent with Good Industry Practice
without restrictions within Contractor’s control;

     (iv) if the Unit is operating below the Net Unit Electrical Output Guarantee
level [***], then Contractor, in accordance with Section 11.5(d)(ii)(A),
shall have either (A) engaged in an engineering review and analysis of the
performance deficiency, in consultation with Owner, to determine possible options to
correct the deficiency or improve the output and submitted to Owner a plan
describing what actions Contractor will take to seek to improve the Net Unit
Electrical Output, or (B) paid the applicable Performance Liquidated Damages
associated with the shortfall;

     (v) All Base ITAACs have been completed and fully satisfied in accordance with
this Agreement, the COL and NRC requirements; and

     (vi) All Quality Assurance Documentation, Facility Manuals and other AP1000
Facility Information necessary for the commercial operation of the Unit shall have
been delivered to Owner in the required form.

          (b) Contractor shall give Notice to Owner that the provisions of Section 12.5(a)(i)
though (vi) have been satisfied, after the Punch List has been established in accordance with
Section 12.6 or the Punch List has been referred to the DRB. Contractor shall specify the
date Contractor asserts that Substantial Completion was achieved in such Notice to Owner. Owner
shall Accept such Unit as having achieved Substantial Completion, by delivering to Contractor
Notice of that Acceptance within five (5) Business Days following receipt of Contractor’s Notice
that Substantial Completion has occurred; alternatively, Owner may within such time period
disagree that Substantial Completion has occurred by giving Notice to Contractor of why it
disagrees that Substantial Completion has occurred. The date of Substantial Completion shall be
the date the Unit has achieved Substantial Completion and not the date of Owner’s Acceptance.

Page 71

 

     12.6 Punch List. Prior to Substantial Completion, Contractor shall submit to Owner for its
review and approval a comprehensive list of remaining punch list Work, which shall be of a minor
nature, does not impact full power operation and does not prevent safe use and normal operation of
the Unit in accordance with the COL and Good Industry Practice (the “Punch List”). Owner
shall have the right for up to [***] from receipt of the Punch List to fully inspect the Unit and
add to the Punch List items of remaining Work associated with such Unit, or Work necessary for
compliance with the applicable requirements of the Agreement. Within fifteen (15) Business Days
after the finalization of the Punch List, Contractor shall submit to Owner in writing for its
approval (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld) the scheduled date for Final
Completion. Owner shall have the right to withhold from the Milestone Payment due upon Substantial
Completion an amount of money equal to [***] of the expected price of completion of the Punch List,
which amount if otherwise payable, shall be released to Contractor upon Final Completion. In lieu
of the Punch List withholding described in this Section 12.6, Contractor shall have the
option to provide to Owner an original standby letter of credit for the amount specified above for
the completion of the Punch List, in which case the amount withheld for the Punch List shall be
released to Contractor. The letter of credit shall be at Contractor’s cost, shall be issued by a
U.S. bank that is reasonably acceptable to Owner, and must be in a form that is reasonably
acceptable to Owner. Any withholdings under this Section 12.6 shall be in addition to any
other amounts withheld by Owner under any other provisions of this Agreement.

     12.7 Final Completion.

          (a) “Final Completion” of the Unit shall have occurred upon: (i) all requirements for
Substantial Completion having been satisfied, (ii) satisfactory performance of retesting, if any,
has been completed, and (iii) the completion of the Punch List and the other Work required under
the Agreement, including, if applicable, the Work described under Section 11.5(d)(ii)(A)
that is associated with improving the Net Unit Electrical Output [***], but excluding the
obligations under the Warranties.

          (b) Contractor shall notify Owner when it believes that the provisions of Section
12.7(a) have been satisfied. Contractor shall specify the date that Contractor asserts Final
Completion occurred in its Notice to Owner. Owner shall Accept the Unit as having achieved Final
Completion by delivering to Contractor Notice of Acceptance within fifteen (15) Business Days
following receipt of Contractor’s Notice that all requirements for Final Completion have been
satisfied; alternatively, Owner may reject the Unit as not having achieved Final Completion by
giving Notice to Contractor of why it disagrees that all requirements for Final Completion have
been satisfied. If such Notice is not delivered by Owner within the specified time period, then
Contractor shall be entitled to a Change in accordance with Article 9. The date of Final
Completion shall be the date the Unit has satisfied all requirements for Final Completion and not
the date of Owner’s Acceptance. [***].

Page 72

 

          (c) Achieving Final Completion shall not relieve Contractor of any warranty or other
obligation of Contractor under this Agreement that by its nature is intended to survive Final
Completion.

          (d) If Contractor is unable to achieve Final Completion within [***] following Substantial
Completion, whichever occurs later, due primarily to the fact that Owner limits Contractor’s
access to the Unit or otherwise does not allow Contractor to take the necessary actions to achieve
Final Completion, then Final Completion will be deemed to have occurred. If Owner has provided
appropriate access but Contractor fails to achieve Final Completion by the date that is [***]
following the date set forth in the Project Schedule for Final Completion, then Owner may hire
third party contractors at then current market rates to complete the final Punch List items and
apply the cost (including a reasonable amount for Owner’s administration and overhead not to
exceed [***] of the cost of the third party contractor) of completing such final Punch List items
against the Punch List withholding described in Section 12.6 above. To the extent
additional funds are required to complete the final Punch List items the Contractor shall promptly
pay Owner such additional amount; however, if any portion of the Punch List withholding described
in Section 12.6 remains unused following Final Completion then Owner shall promptly pay
Contractor such remaining amount.

ARTICLE 13 — DELAY LIQUIDATED DAMAGES; LIQUIDATED DAMAGE CAPS

     13.1 Delay Liquidated Damages. The Parties agree that Owner would suffer actual damages if
Contractor does not achieve Substantial Completion by the date that is [***] after the Guaranteed
Substantial Completion Date, and that it would be extremely difficult and impracticable under
presently known and anticipated facts and circumstances to ascertain and fix the amount of actual
damages Owner would incur and, accordingly, if Contractor does not achieve Substantial Completion
by the date that is [***] after the Guaranteed Substantial Completion Date due to Contractor’s
and/or it’s Personnel’s fault, Owner’s remedy for such delay shall be to recover from Contractor as
liquidated damages, and not as a penalty, a fixed amount for each Day or any portion of a Day that
Substantial Completion is delayed during such time period beyond the Guaranteed Substantial
Completion Date (the “Delay Liquidated Damages”) as follows:

	 	 	 
	Number of Days After	 	 
	Guaranteed Substantial	 	Delay Liquidated Damages
	Completion Date	 	(per Day or partial Day)
	[***]
	 	[***]
	[***]
	 	[***]
	[***]
	 	[***]
	[***]
	 	[***]

If a delay in achieving Substantial Completion of a Unit is [***] or less, [***]. If a delay in
achieving Substantial Completion of a Unit continues beyond [***] after the Guaranteed Substantial
Completion Date for such Unit, [***]; provided, however, that Owner shall at such

Page 73

 

time have the
right to terminate this Agreement under the terms of Section 22.3 or to terminate a Unit
under Section 22.7, except that Owner shall not owe Contractor an Agreement Termination Fee
or Unit Termination Fee, if applicable. In no event shall the total Delay Liquidated Damages due
under this Agreement with respect to a Unit exceed [***].

     13.2 Payment of Delay Liquidated Damages. Delay Liquidated Damages, if due, shall be
payable by Contractor to Owner within thirty (30) Days following Notice from Owner that such
amounts are due or, if the payment of any such amount is disputed, within thirty (30) Days
following resolution of the Claim in accordance with Article 27. Payment of Delay
Liquidated Damages shall be Owner’s sole and exclusive remedy for Contractor’s failure to achieve
Substantial Completion of a Unit by the date that is more than [***] after the Guaranteed
Substantial Completion Date for such Unit, except that (a) Owner shall have a termination right in
accordance with Section 13.1 upon meeting the conditions for termination set forth therein,
(b) if Contractor is otherwise in breach of this Agreement then Owner may terminate under
Section 22.2(a) upon meeting the conditions for termination set forth therein [***].

ARTICLE 14 — WARRANTY

     14.1 Equipment.

          (a) Equipment Warranty. Contractor warrants that the Equipment furnished hereunder
will be: (i) free from defects in design, workmanship, construction and material, (ii) new, [***],
(v) in conformance with Good Industry Practices, and (vi) in accordance with the requirements of
this Agreement (collectively, the “Equipment Warranty”); provided, however, that to the
extent an Extended Equipment Warranty Period applies for the Equipment listed in Exhibit
Z, such Extended Equipment Warranty Period shall be subject to the terms of such warranty (if
any) that is established by the Parties in accordance with Exhibit Z (the “Extended
Equipment Warranties”). The Equipment Warranty does not apply to the expected, routine (i.e.,
a frequency typical in industry experience) replacement of consumables such as, but not limited
to, gaskets, seals, filters, packing, fuses, transistors and light bulbs. Owner shall have the
right to obtain the Extended Warranties as provided in Exhibit Z via the provisions of
Article 9 within the time period specified for the exercise of such option.

          (b) Equipment Warranty Remedy. If Owner discovers that any Equipment is
nonconforming or fails during the Equipment Warranty Period as provided in Section
14.4(a), Owner shall, within the Equipment Warranty Period, promptly notify Contractor of such
nonconformance or failure along with any evidence or information it has with respect to the
possible cause or causes thereof. Upon receipt of such notice, Contractor shall at Contractor’s
expense: (i) repair, replace, redesign, modify or adjust the affected Equipment as required to
cure such nonconformance or failure; and (ii) perform such tests as are reasonably necessary to
demonstrate the cure of such nonconformance or failure. Contractor will perform the Warranty Work
at a time responsive to and consistent with the Owner’s reasonable requirements for the safe,
reliable and efficient operation of the Facility. The decision to repair, replace, redesign,
modify or adjust will be made by Contractor with consultation from Owner and consistent with the
quality and performance requirements originally applicable to such nonconforming Equipment, as
specified in applicable AP1000 Facility Information. If Owner requests that Contractor cure such
nonconformance or failure in a manner that will cause Contractor to incur

Page 74

 

Direct Costs plus
SGA/G&A, other mark-ups applied pursuant to Exhibit G, and Pro Rata Profit on such Direct
Costs in excess of the costs and charges which Contractor would have incurred in curing such
nonconformance or failure in the manner contemplated by Contractor, Contractor shall cure such
nonconformance or failure in the manner requested by Owner, provided that such manner to cure such
nonconformance or failure is technically feasible and does not otherwise impact Contractor’s
ability to perform its other obligations under this Agreement, provided further that Owner shall
reimburse Contractor for such excess costs and charges on a Time and Materials Basis. Removal and
reinstallation of the nonconforming Equipment shall be performed by Contractor at its expense;
provided that Owner shall provide working access to the Equipment (which shall include removing,
disassembling, replacing and/or reinstalling adjacent or interfering Equipment, systems or
structures in the Unit to the extent necessary to permit Contractor to perform its warranty
obligation on the nonconforming Equipment), it being understood that such removal, disassembling,
replacing and/or reinstalling by Owner shall not adversely affect any warranties and, at the
request of Contractor, Owner shall furnish, without cost to Contractor, plant support personnel
and plant facilities to assist in the removal, reinstallation, repair and other activities
occasioned by this warranty as specified in Section 14.1(e). Should investigation reveal
that a defect is not covered by the Equipment Warranty, Owner shall reimburse Contractor for the
work undertaken by Contractor pursuant to this Section 14.1(b) on a Time and Materials
Basis. Contractor shall, at its own expense for all covered defects, update appropriate AP1000
Facility Information to accurately reflect any such replacement or modified item of the Equipment.

          (c) Warranty Work Deferral. At Owner’s option, Warranty Work may be deferred until
the time of the Unit’s next regularly scheduled refueling outage, and the Warranty provisions
hereunder shall apply notwithstanding whether such outage occurs after the end of the Equipment
Warranty Period. If Contractor advises Owner that deferral of the Warranty Work can reasonably be
expected to cause damage to the Unit and/or Equipment, Owner may elect to use the Unit and/or
Equipment at its own risk and expense, without recourse against Contractor. In no event may Owner
defer the Warranty Work beyond the earlier of the next refueling outage or [***] from the date
Contractor Notified Owner it was ready to perform the Warranty Work; provided, that if there is a
Standard Equipment Warranty Period extension pursuant to Section 14.5(b) during such [***]
period, and such extension results in the next outage being delayed beyond the [***] period, then
the [***] period will be
extended to the date [***] beyond the start of the next outage, but in no case may such
period be extended by an amount that is greater than the amount of time that the Standard
Equipment Warranty Period is extended.

          (d) Additional Owner’s Obligations. If there is a warranty claim under this
Agreement:

     (i) Owner shall, at Contractor’s request, afford Contractor a reasonable
opportunity to review Owner’s system of developing and recording data related to
Facility performance, and Contractor shall bear the cost of its review of such
system, unless Contractor is not responsible for the asserted warranty claim;

Page 75

 

     (ii) Owner shall provide authorized Personnel of Contractor and its
Subcontractors and Vendors reasonable access to relevant operation and maintenance
records of Owner concerning the affected portions of the Facility and Contractor
shall bear the cost of its review of such records, unless Contractor is not
responsible for the asserted warranty claim;

     (iii) Owner shall provide Contractor reasonable notice of the presentation(s)
to any Government Authority relating to the asserted warranty claim or related
issues; and

     (iv) The Parties hereto shall cooperate in performing any root cause analysis.

          (e) Working Access to Equipment and Plant Support Activities to be Provided by Owner.
The plant personnel and facilities to be provided by Owner in accordance with Sections
14.1(b) and/or 14.2(b) are listed below. Owner shall also provide this support after
Unit Mechanical Completion should Contractor be required to repair or replace Equipment during the
period from the Unit Mechanical Completion through the end of the Warranty Period and also with
respect to any period in which Contractor is performing Warranty Work under this Agreement.

hot tool crib, as required and allow Contractor use of associated tradesmen;

     (xxvi) Provide crane operators for permanently installed cranes, including
polar crane availability on an as needed basis;

     (xxvii) Provide for consumables such as wipes and rags, and disposal of all
contaminated materials;

     (xxviii) Provide QA/QC coverage as required in the Owner approved procedures to
the extent such work is performed under the Owner quality assurance program;

     (xxix) Provide access to existing and available outside phone lines; and

     (xxx) Provide sanitation facilities and drinking water as available.

     14.2 Services.

          (a) Services Warranty. Contractor warrants that the Services: (i) will be performed
in accordance with Good Industry Practices using properly qualified personnel (taking into account
the work being performed), (ii) will be free from defects in workmanship, [***], (v) will be
performed in conformance with Industry Codes and Standards applied in accordance with Good
Industry Practices and as specified in applicable Documentation, and (vi) will be provided in
compliance with the requirements of this Agreement (the “Services Warranty”).

          (b) Services Warranty Remedy. If Owner discovers that any portion of the Services
required as part of the Work fails to comply with the Services Warranty, Owner shall, within the
Services Warranty Period, promptly notify Contractor of such nonconformance along with any
evidence or information Owner has with respect to the possible cause or causes
thereof. Upon receipt of such Notice, Contractor shall at Contractor’s expense (i) promptly
re-perform or otherwise correct the nonconforming Services and perform any additional Work
required to cause the Equipment to comply with such re-performed or corrected Services pursuant to
the applicable provisions of Section 14.1; [***] and (iii) perform such tests as are
reasonably necessary to demonstrate the cure of such nonconformance or failure. Contractor shall
perform the Warranty Work at a time responsive to and consistent with the Owner’s reasonable
requirements for the safe, reliable and efficient operation of the Facility in accordance with
Owner’s operational requirements and needs. The decision to repair, replace, redesign, modify or
adjust will be made by Contractor with consultation from Owner and consistent with the quality and
performance requirements originally applicable to such nonconforming Services, as specified in
applicable AP1000 Facility Information. If Owner requests that Contractor cure such
nonconformance in a manner that will cause Contractor to incur Direct Costs plus SGA/G&A, other
mark-ups applied pursuant to Exhibit G, and Pro Rata

Page 78

 

Profit on such Direct Costs in excess
of the costs and charges which Contractor would have incurred in curing such nonconformance or
failure in the manner contemplated by Contractor, Contractor shall cure such nonconformance or
failure in the manner requested by Owner, provided that such manner to cure such nonconformance or
failure is technically feasible and does not otherwise impact Contractor’s ability to perform its
other obligations under this Agreement, provided further that Owner shall reimburse Contractor for
such excess costs and charges on a Time and Materials Basis. Owner shall provide reasonable
working access to the Facility and reasonably available plant personnel and facilities, if
applicable, as specified in Section 14.1(e). Should investigation reveal that the
nonconformance is not covered by the Services Warranty, Owner shall reimburse Contractor for the
work undertaken by Contractor pursuant to this Section 14.2 on a Time and Materials Basis.

          (c) Warranty Work Deferral. At Owner’s option, Warranty Work that negatively impacts
the operation of one or both Units may be deferred until the time of the Unit’s next regularly
scheduled refueling outage and the Warranty provisions hereunder shall apply notwithstanding
whether such outage occurs after the end of the Services Warranty Period. If Contractor advises
Owner that deferral of the Warranty Work can reasonably be expected to cause damage to one or both
Units and/or Equipment, Owner may elect to use the Unit and/or Equipment at its own risk and
expense, without recourse against Contractor. In no event may Owner defer the Warranty Work
beyond the earlier of the next refueling outage or [***] from the date Contractor Notified Owner
it was ready to perform the Warranty Work; provided, that if there is a Standard Equipment
Warranty Period extension pursuant to Section 14.5(b) during such [***] period, and such
extension results in the next outage being delayed beyond the [***] period, then the [***] period
will be extended to the date [***] beyond the start of the next outage, but in no case may such
period be extended by an amount that is greater than the amount of time that the Standard
Equipment Warranty Period is extended.

     14.3 Warranty Fulfillment. Contractor’s compliance with its Warranty obligations described
in Article 14 and any Extended Equipment Warranty that is established in accordance with
Exhibit Z will constitute Contractor’s complete fulfillment of its obligations under the
Warranties (subject to the limitations set forth in Section 37.2, and Owner shall not be
entitled to any recovery or remedies with respect to such Warranties other than those set forth in
this Article 14 and any Extended Equipment Warranty
that is established in accordance with Exhibit Z. Upon the expiration of the applicable
Warranty Period (including any extension thereof), all obligations will terminate with respect to
the Equipment Warranty, the Services Warranty, or any Extended Equipment Warranties, as applicable,
for which a Notice of nonconformance has not been provided prior to such expiration. [***]. If
Contractor is willing and able to promptly perform its warranty obligations under this Article
14, but Owner elects to repair or remedy such Equipment or Services on its own or through its
other contractors, then Contractor will not be responsible for the costs incurred for such repair
or remedy.

     14.4 Warranty Periods. 

          (a) Equipment Warranty Period.

     (i) Except for the Equipment listed in Section 14.4(a)(iii), the
Equipment Warranty for a Unit and its related Ancillary Facilities will commence

Page 79

 

upon the [***] and will expire on the date that is [***] (the “Standard
Equipment Warranty Period”); provided, further, that if any Change that is not
caused by Contractor’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement, results in a
delay in reaching Substantial Completion thereby delaying the start of the Equipment
Warranty, then there will either (A) be a modification to the Contract Price to
compensate for the extension of the Standard Equipment Warranty Period’s end date in
accordance with the provisions in Section 14.4(a)(ii) below, or (B) if Owner
elects to not accept the cost of the warranty extension described in Section
14.4(a)(ii) below or if the Parties are otherwise unable to obtain or agree upon
pricing for the Warranty Period extension, then the Standard Equipment Warranty
Period shall be reduced by the number of Days equal to the amount of the delay in
reaching Substantial Completion that was not caused by Contractor’s breach of its
obligations under this Agreement. For those items of the Equipment listed in
Exhibit Z, and provided that an Extended Equipment Warranty is obtained by
Owner in accordance with Exhibit Z, such Extended Equipment Warranties will
apply for the applicable period(s) set forth in Exhibit Z (the “Extended
Equipment Warranty Period”).

     (ii) In the event that after the pouring of first concrete for the Unit but
prior to Substantial Completion of such Unit, there is any delay in the performance
of the Work caused by Owner or their Personnel or resulting from an event of Force
Majeure, at Owner’s request, Contractor shall use commercially reasonable efforts to
determine the cost of an extension to the standard equipment warranties and, if such
cost is accepted by Owner, endeavor to obtain such extension to the equipment
warranties from Vendors for Equipment designated by Owner and will provide Owner the
benefit of such extensions. The cost of such extended warranties, if obtained,
shall be included in the Change Order which Contractor receives as a result of such
delay pursuant to Article 9.

     (iii) For the Equipment listed below which is placed into service prior to
Substantial Completion, the Equipment Warranty will commence upon the date when an
item listed below is placed into service and will expire on [***]. If,
however, any such item of Equipment is placed into service prior to Substantial
Completion of the applicable Unit for the sole purpose of being used by Contractor
to support its performance of the Work, the Equipment Warranty will commence upon
the Substantial Completion Date of such applicable Unit and will expire on [***].
Contractor shall give Notice to Owner within five (5) Business Days after an item
listed below has been placed into service.

Page 81

 

          (a) Extension for Corrected Work. Any Work re-performed and any part of the Facility
that is reworked, repaired or replaced in satisfaction of Contractor’s obligations in connection
with the Services Warranty, the Equipment Warranty (but not the Extended Equipment Warranties as
the terms for any extension of the Extended Equipment Warranties will be established in accordance
with Exhibit Z), as applicable, will be re-warranted by Contractor pursuant to the same
Warranty set forth in Sections 14.1(a) and 14.2(a), and Contractor will have the
same obligations in relation thereto as set forth in those Sections, for a period equal to the
longer of: [***].

          (b) [***].

     14.6 Warranty of Title. Contractor represents and warrants that the Work, including
the Equipment furnished by Contractor and its Subcontractors that become part of the Facility or is
otherwise furnished to Owner shall be legally and beneficially owned by Owner free from any Liens
(other than Liens created by Owner, including non-payment). In the event of a breach of this
warranty of title, Contractor shall have a duty to cure such breach in accordance with the
procedures set forth in Section 18.2.

     14.7 Software Warranty. During the Standard Equipment Warranty Period for a Unit
(referred to in this Section 14.7 as the “Software Warranty Period”), the Software
and Configuration Data shall: (i) be compatible with and operate in conjunction with the Unit, the
Facility and other Software and related Equipment as indicated in the Software Documentation or as
otherwise recommended by Contractor in writing; (ii) conform to and perform without material errors
or interruption and in accordance with the Software Documentation and Specification for the Unit;
and (iii) shall be technically acceptable with respect to software selection in accordance with
Good Industry Practices for the application for which it is being used. Contractor shall not be
liable for failure to meet the foregoing warranty for the specific item of Software exhibiting a
non-conformance to
the extent there have been: (a) adaptations or modifications made to the Software, including
changes to hardware on which the Software is installed and operates, by the Owner or others in a
way that is not described by the Documentation, or otherwise without authorization or approval from
Contractor, which are responsible for causing such failure; or (b) misuse of the Software by Owner
or others. Contractor shall promptly notify Owner of any known defect in any Software that may
have an adverse impact on the Unit or Facility or their operation. If the Software fails to
satisfy the requirements of this Software Warranty during the Software Warranty Period, Contractor,
with reasonable assistance from Owner, shall take appropriate corrective action at no additional
charge to Owner to bring the Software into conformance and to remediate any damage to the
Equipment or the Facility, [***]. Contractor shall commence correction of nonconforming Software
within a reasonable period of time after receipt of written notification of the nonconformance in
view of the impact of the defect on the operations of the Facility. Contractor shall perform the
corrective Work so that the Software conforms to the standards set forth in (i), (ii) and (iii)
above in this Section 14.7 or replace such Software with a suitable replacement. Should
Contractor fail to bring the Software into conformance within a reasonable time after written
notification of a nonconformance or fail to correct the nonconformance so that it conforms to the
standards set forth in (i), (ii) and (iii) above in this Section 14.7 in a commercially
reasonable time after such written notification and fails to replace such Software with a suitable
replacement, Contractor shall propose a commercially reasonable alternative to

Page 82

 

Owner for Owner’s
acceptance. In the event of a defect, the Parties acknowledge that provision of a workaround by
Contractor may be an appropriate temporary or permanent manner of reaching conformance, depending
upon the type of defect and the manner of the workaround. For purposes of this Section
14.7, Software shall exclude commodity software provided by third parties, such as Microsoft
Corporation, except to the extent that specific commodity software interferes with the
functionality to operate or control the Unit or Facility. Third-Party Software shall be governed
by the provisions of the specific Third-Party Software licenses. The media on which the Software,
Configuration Data and Software Documentation is recorded shall be substantially free from defects
in material and workmanship for the Software Warranty Period. Contractor will, at no additional
charge, replace any defective media, provided that the applicable defect is not due to Owner’s
misuse.

     14.8 Assignment of Residual Third Party Warranties. To the extent third party suppliers
have provided warranties on Services, Equipment and Software which extend beyond the expiration of
the Warranties provided by Contractor under this Agreement, Contractor shall assign the residual
portion of such third party warranties, without recourse, to Owner upon the expiration of the
Contractor’s Warranty applicable to such Equipment, Services and Software.

     14.9 Limitations and Disclaimers. 

          (a) THE WARRANTIES AND REMEDIES SET FORTH IN THIS ARTICLE 14 FOR ANY NONCONFORMANCE
OF EQUIPMENT OR SERVICES ARE THE EXCLUSIVE WARRANTIES AND REMEDIES FOR SUCH NONCONFORMANCE OF
EQUIPMENT OR SERVICES AND ARE IN LIEU OF ALL OTHER WARRANTIES AND REMEDIES FOR SUCH NONCONFORMANCE

FROM COURSE OF DEALING OR USAGE IN TRADE) AND WHETHER CLAIMS BY OWNER ARE BASED IN CONTRACT, IN
TORT (INCLUDING FAULT, NEGLIGENCE OR STRICT LIABILITY), OR OTHERWISE, SUBJECT TO THE LIMITATIONS
SET FORTH IN SECTION 37.2.

          (b) Any warranties not expressly made by Contractor in this Agreement are expressly waived by
the Owner.

          (c) Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Article 14, Contractor shall
have no liability hereunder for nonconformance or failure of Equipment, or performance, to the
extent that such nonconformance or failure results, in whole or in part, from any of the
following:

     (i) Operation of the Facility outside of the design bases (as such term is
defined in 10 CFR § 50.2) of the Equipment or integrated system;

     (ii) Following Turnover of a system or structure, improper use, operation in
violation of manufacturer’s written instructions, handling, storage, maintenance, or
operation of the Equipment or material therein outside the guidelines of the

Contractor shall be obligated to fulfill such Warranty obligations at such time as
Contractor or its Personnel are permitted to enter the work area pursuant to
applicable Law.

In any action taken by Contractor to satisfy a claim by Owner under any of the Warranties specified
herein, Contractor shall be entitled to whatever financial relief is provided (if any) by the
insurers pursuant to Owner’s insurance policies that cover the occurrence that caused the breach of
Warranty.

          (e) [***], no statement made in this Article 14 or any AP1000 Facility Information
shall be construed to provide or imply a warranty or guaranty that the Equipment or Facility will
actually operate or perform in accordance with its Specifications for its stated design life, and
Contractor shall otherwise have no warranty obligation to repair any defects in the Equipment that
are discovered after expiration of the Standard Equipment Warranty Period, or if applicable, any

and defend Owner and Owner Affiliates, their officers, directors, employees and agents, from and
against liability, loss, costs, claims, damages, expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and
reasonable enforcement costs), judgments, awards, demands, actions and/or disputes, arising or
claimed to have arisen:

Page 84

 

          (a) from and to the extent of,

       (i) the negligent or wrongful acts or omissions of Contractor or its
Subcontractors and their Personnel, acting within the scope of their employment or
for which applicable Law would otherwise hold Contractor liable for such acts or
omissions, or

       (ii) [***],

that result in one or more Third Party Claims alleging:

	 	(x)	 	injury to (including mental or emotional) or
death of any natural person (except to the extent covered by
Sections 15.1(b) or 15.2(b)), or
	 
	 	(y)	 	damage to or destruction of any third party
property, real or personal (specifically excluding the Facility);

          (b) from any injuries sustained and/or occupational diseases contracted by Contractor’s or
its Subcontractor’s Personnel of such a nature and under such circumstances as to create liability
by Owner or its Affiliates or Contractor under the Workers’ Compensation Act, and all amendments
thereto, of the state having jurisdiction, including all claims and causes of action of any
character against Owner and its Affiliates by any Personnel of Contractor, its Subcontractors or
assignees, or the employer of such Personnel, or any person or
concern claiming by, under or through them resulting from or in any manner growing out of
such injuries or occupational diseases, except to the extent such injuries and/or occupational
diseases are caused by the negligence or wrongful acts of Owner, its Affiliates and/or their
respective Personnel; and

          (c) from demands, actions or disputes asserted by any Subcontractor arising from Contractor’s
breach of its Subcontract with such Subcontractor regardless of whether such demands, actions or
disputes arise from activities at the Site, at Nearby Work Areas, or at any other location;
provided that Owner shall reimburse Contractor for the costs and charges incurred by Contractor in
connection with its obligations under this clause (c) arising from Target Price Work and Work
performed on a Time and Material Basis.

[***]. Owner shall give Contractor prompt Notice of any claims for which it seeks indemnity
hereunder (along with any information available to Owner that reasonably sets forth the basis of
Contractor’s obligation(s)); provided, however, that any failure to notify
Contractor will not relieve Contractor from any obligation hereunder unless Contractor is
prejudiced by such failure. Contractor shall promptly notify Owner of any material litigation
filed against Contractor arising from Contractor’s performance of the Work that has the potential
to create liability for Owner. Contractor shall investigate all such claims and preserve necessary
evidence using reasonable claims handling practices.

Page 85

 

     15.2 Owner’s General Indemnity. To the maximum extent permitted by applicable Law, and
except with respect to a Nuclear Incident (which shall be subject to Section 15.6), Owner
shall at Owner’s expense indemnify and defend Contractor and Contractor Affiliates, their officers,
directors, employees and agents, from and against liability, loss, costs, claims, damages, expenses
(including reasonable attorneys’ fees and reasonable enforcement costs), judgments, awards,
demands, actions and/or disputes, arising or claimed to have arisen:

          (a) from and to the extent of the negligent or wrongful acts or omissions of Owner or its
Personnel (other than Contractor or its Subcontractors) acting within the scope of their
employment or for which applicable Law would otherwise hold Owner liable for such acts or
omissions that result in one or more Third Party Claims alleging:

     (i) injury to (including mental or emotional) or death of any natural person
(except to the extent covered by Section 15.1(b) or 15.2(b)), or

     (ii) damage to or destruction of any third party property, real or personal
(specifically excluding the Facility);

          (b) from injuries sustained and/or occupational diseases contracted by Owner’s Personnel
(excluding Contractor or its Subcontractors and their Personnel) of such a nature and arising
under such circumstances as to create liability by Contractor or its Affiliates or Owner under the
Workers’ Compensation Act, and all amendments thereto, of the state having jurisdiction, including
all claims and causes of action of any character against Contractor and its Affiliates by any
Personnel of Owner (excluding Contractor or its Subcontractor and their Personnel), or any person
or concern claiming by, under or through
them resulting from or in any manner growing out of such injuries or occupational diseases,
except to the extent such injuries and/or occupational diseases are caused by the negligence or
wrongful acts of Contractor, its Affiliates, its Subcontractors and/or their respective Personnel;
and

          (c) from demands, actions or disputes asserted by any contractor of Owner (other than
Contractor or its Subcontractors) arising from Owner’s breach of its contract with such contractor
regardless of whether such demands, actions or disputes arise from activities at the Site, at
Nearby Work Areas, or at any other location.

[***]. Contractor shall give Owner prompt Notice of any claims for which it seeks indemnity
hereunder (along with any information available to Owner that reasonably sets forth the
basis of Owner’s indemnity obligation(s)); provided, however, that any
failure to notify Owner will not relieve Owner from any obligation hereunder unless Owner is
prejudiced by such failure. Owner shall promptly notify Contractor of any material
litigation filed against Owner arising from Owner’s scope of work or in connection with the
Facility that has the potential to create liability for Contractor. Owner shall investigate
all such claims and preserve necessary evidence using reasonable claims handling practices.

at its option settle, any action brought against Owner to the extent based solely on a claim that
any item or Work furnished by it or Owner’s use thereof infringes any patent, trademark, copyright,
trade secret or any other intellectual property right of any third party. Contractor shall
indemnify Owner and hold Owner harmless from all damages and costs (including attorney’s fees)
awarded in any such suit or proceeding and shall pay the damages and costs awarded therein against
Owner. If a claim of infringement is made, Contractor may, or if the use of the item is enjoined,
Contractor shall, at its expense and option, either procure for Owner the right to continue using
it, replace it with an equivalent non-infringing item, or modify or replace it so it becomes
non-infringing without degrading its functionality or performance, or as a last resort and with the
prior written approval of Owner, remove it and refund the purchase price. No modification or
replacement under this Section 15.4 shall in any way amend or relieve Contractor from the
Warranties set forth in this Agreement or adversely affect the Contract Price or Project Schedule
or any license or permit affecting the Facility. Notwithstanding the above, Contractor has no duty
to defend or indemnify Owner to the extent a claim of infringement is based upon an item being
furnished in accordance with specifications, drawings, plans, or detailed designs supplied by Owner
or by a third party for Owner that caused Contractor to deviate from its normal practices, or to
the extent the infringement is caused by an item being modified or combined by Owner or others with
items
not furnished by Contractor hereunder in a manner not intended or approved in writing by
Contractor.

negligent or wrongful acts or omission of Contractor, or (B) any government fines or
penalties arising out of and to the extent of Contractor’ failure to comply with (x)
any Law or (y) any Project Policies and Procedures to the extent caused by the
negligent or wrongful acts or omissions of Contractor.

Page 88

 

     (ii) Except to the extent resulting from a Nuclear Incident (which shall be
subject to Section 15.6), Owner shall defend, indemnify and hold harmless
Contractor (including its Affiliates) from (A) any Third Party Claims for
liabilities, losses, costs (including attorney’s fees), or damages arising out of
and to the extent of Owner’s failure to comply with (x) any Law or (y) any Project
Policies and Procedures to the extent caused by the negligent or wrongful acts or
omissions of Owner, or (B) any government fines or penalties arising out of and to
the extent of Owner’ failure to comply with (x) any Law or (y) any Project Policies
and Procedures to the extent caused by the negligent or wrongful acts or omissions
of Owner.

     15.6 Nuclear Incidents. 

          (a) General. Owner hereby waives and releases Contractor, Contractor Interests or
Subcontractors from any damage or loss of any kind, whether on the Site or Nearby Work Areas, or
off the Site or Nearby Work Areas, or for any punitive damage or any direct, consequential,
indirect, special, or incidental loss, damage or injury, whether arising in contract (including
breach and warranty), tort or otherwise, and whether or not based on any claim of fault,
negligence or strict liability, to the extent any of the foregoing arises out of or results from a
Nuclear Incident. However, this waiver shall not apply to any rights Owner may have against
Contractor under Article 14 Warranty.

          (b) Nuclear Liability Insurance and Governmental Indemnity. Notwithstanding anything
in this Agreement to the contrary, the Owner shall maintain “financial protection” to cover public
liability as such terms are defined in the AEA, where caused by or arising from a Nuclear
Incident, including master worker coverage. Such financial protection shall be in such form and
amount to meet the financial protection requirements of Section 170 of the AEA. Owner also shall
enter into the governmental indemnity agreement as required by Section 170 of the AEA. In the
event that the financial protection system contemplated by Section 170 of the AEA is repealed or
changed, Owner shall exercise commercially reasonable efforts, consistent with Good Industry
Practices at that time, to maintain in effect liability protection through governmental indemnity,
limitation of liability, insurance and/or other financial protection which will not result in a
material impairment of the protection afforded Contractor and Contractor Interests by such nuclear
liability protection system which is in effect as of the Effective Date [***]. Owner shall ensure
that Contractor and Contractor Interests are included in the omnibus definition of “insured” under
such alternate insurance coverage or are otherwise included as an additional insured at no cost to
Contractor or Contractor Interests.

          (c) Nuclear Property Insurance. Owner shall also maintain property insurance with
respect to the Facility and the site (as defined in the policy) as may be available from Nuclear
Electric Insurance Limited (NEIL) or other sources consistent with the requirements of the NRC and
Good Industry Practices, providing protection against loss or damage to the Facility. The limits
of insurance shall also be maintained in accordance with the requirements

Page 89

 

of the NRC and Good
Industry Practices. Such insurance shall cover Contractor and Contractor Interests as their
interests may appear. Owner waives and shall require its insurers to waive all rights of recovery
against Contractor or any Contractor Interest on account of any nuclear or non-nuclear loss or
damage covered by such property insurance during the Work and thereafter, whether arising in
contract, tort or otherwise, and irrespective of fault, negligence or strict liability of any of
the Contractor Interests. In the event Owner recovers damages from a third party based on losses
at the Facility, the Site, or Nearby Work Areas resulting from a Nuclear Incident, Owner shall
indemnify Contractor and all Contractor Interests against claims by such third party which are
based on Owner’s recovery of such damages. In addition, Owner waives, and will require its
insurers to waive, all rights of recovery against Contractor and Contractor Interests for any and
all costs or expenses arising out of or in connection with the investigation and settlement of
claims or the defense of suits for damage resulting from a Nuclear Incident during the Work and
thereafter.

          (d) Duration. The protection provided by Owner pursuant to this Section 15.6
shall be in effect by the date that Nuclear Fuel first arrives at the Site, and shall remain in
effect until the permanent decommissioning of the Facility.

     15.7 Indemnity Procedures.

          (a) The indemnifying Party shall have the right to conduct and control, through counsel of
its own choosing, reasonably acceptable to the indemnified Party, the defense of any Third Party
Claim that is covered by the indemnity. The indemnifying Party shall keep the indemnified Party
fully informed in the conduct of the proceeding. The indemnified Party shall be entitled to
participate at its cost in any such action.

          (b) The indemnified Party may, at its election, participate in the defense thereof at its
sole cost and expense; provided, however, that if (i) the indemnifying Party shall fail to defend
any Third Party Claim, (ii) the Parties mutually agree in writing to allow the indemnified Party
to assume the defense of such Third Party Claim and forego any indemnity claimed under this
Article, (iii) in the reasonable opinion of legal counsel for the indemnified Party, such Third
Party Claim involves the potential imposition of a criminal liability on the indemnified Party,
its directors, officers, employees or agents, or (iv) in the reasonable opinion of legal counsel
for the indemnified Party, an actual or potential conflict of interest exists where it is
advisable for such indemnified Party to be represented by separate counsel, then the indemnified
Party shall be entitled to control and assume responsibility for the defense of such Third Party
Claim, at the cost and expense of the indemnifying Party (except in the case of (ii) above, in
which the indemnified Party agrees to forego the indemnity). The indemnifying Party may, in any
event, participate in such proceedings at its own cost and expense. The indemnified Party shall
not have the right to settle without the written consent of the indemnifying Party (which consent
shall not be unreasonably withheld).

          (c) The indemnifying Party, in the defense of any such litigation, other proceeding or other
claim, shall have the right in its sole discretion to settle such Third Party Claim only if (i)
settlement involves only the payment of money and execution of appropriate releases of the
indemnified Party, (ii) there is no finding or admission of any violation of Law or violation of
the rights of the indemnified Party, and (iii) the indemnified Party will have no

Page 90

 

liability with
respect to such compromise or settlement. Otherwise, no such Third Party Claim shall be settled or
agreed to without the prior written consent of the indemnified Party, which shall not be
unreasonably withheld.

          (d) The indemnified Party and the indemnifying Party (i) shall fully cooperate in good faith
in connection with such defense and shall cause their legal counsel and accountants to do the
same; (ii) shall make available to the other Party all relevant and non-privileged books, records,
and information (in such Party’s control) during normal business hours; and (iii) shall furnish to
each other, at the indemnifying Party’s expense, such other assistance as the other Party may
reasonably require in connection with such defense, including making employees of the indemnified
Parties available to testify and assist others in testifying in any such proceedings.

     15.8 Extension of Liability and Insurance Protections from Third Party Contractors. 

          (a) Owner shall use commercially reasonable efforts to include in all contracts which Owner
enters into with third party contractors relating to Owner’s Scope of Work or activities at the
Site or Nearby Work Areas, that all liability and insurance protections which are afforded to
Owner thereunder will be contractually extended for the benefit of Contractor and its Affiliates,
including being a named insured on insurance, having the benefit of any waivers of subrogation and
of liability, and being a named indemnitee and party defended under indemnification and defense
provisions.

          (b) Contractor shall use commercially reasonable efforts to include in all Subcontracts
relating to the Work at the Site or Nearby Work Areas, that all liability and insurance
protections which are afforded to Contractor thereunder will be contractually
extended for the benefit of Owner and its Affiliates, including being a named insured on
insurance, having the benefit of any waivers of subrogation and of liability, and being a named
indemnitee and party defended under indemnification and defense provisions.

     16.2 Insurance Coverages — Phase II through Substantial Completion. 

          (a) Effective at the beginning of Phase II, or as otherwise agreed by the Parties, Owner
shall have the option to implement an Owner-Controlled Insurance Program (“OCIP”). If
Owner elects to implement an OCIP, Owner shall give Contractor Notice at least ninety (90) Days
prior to the effective date of the OCIP, and Owner shall supply such coverage pursuant to the
requirements of Exhibit BB. The OCIP coverage shall be subject to review and verification
by Contractor. Copies of all insurance policies required to be obtained by Owner under this
Section 16.2 shall be provided to Contractor prior to the effective date of the OCIP.

          (b) In the event that Owner elects not to implement an OCIP, Owner shall give Notice of its
election to Contractor at least ninety (90) Days prior to the beginning of Phase II. As soon as
practical after Contractor’s receipt of Owner’s Notice, the Parties shall discuss the various
options available for supplying the required coverages (or equivalent), taking into account the
cost and availability of the required coverages, the general conditions in the insurance market,
the risks inherent in performing the Work, and any other factors that the Parties consider to be
relevant. Should the Parties fail to reach mutual agreement as to how the required coverages will
be provided within thirty (30) Days from Contractor’s receipt of Owner’s Notice, then Contractor
shall have the option to implement a Contractor-Controlled Insurance Program (“CCIP”).

          (c) If Contractor provides a CCIP, Contractor shall supply such coverage pursuant to the
requirements of Exhibit BB, except that references to “Owner” as set forth in Exhibit
BB shall be changed to “Contractor” to the extent appropriate. Copies of all policies
required to be obtained by Contractor under this Section 16.2 shall be provided to Owner
prior to the effective date of the CCIP.

          (d) If Owner does not supply an OCIP by the beginning of Phase II, and if Contractor does not
supply a CCIP by the beginning of Phase II, and unless otherwise agreed by the Parties, Contractor
shall continue to maintain in full force and effect the coverages specified in Section
16.1, with the following exceptions:

     (i) The coverage limit for the Umbrella Liability program to be supplied by
Contractor under Section 16.1(j) shall be increased to [***].

     (ii) Products/completed operations coverage under the commercial general

Section 16.1(a) shall remain in full force for [***] following Substantial
Completion of the Work.

          (e) The insurance coverages set forth in Sections 16.2(a) though (d) shall be
maintained until Substantial Completion of the Facility (or as mutually agreed by the Parties).
Upon Substantial Completion of the Facility, the coverages specified in Section 16.1 will
be obtained and maintained by Contractor and shall be maintained in full force and effect through
Final Completion.

Page 93

 

          (f) Whether or not an OCIP or CCIP is in effect during Phase II, Contractor shall maintain
the following coverages:

     (i) Comprehensive automobile liability insurance as provided in Section
16.1(b).

     (ii) Project Specific Professional liability insurance covering errors and
omissions of Contractor and its design Subcontractors as provided in Section
16.1(d).

     (iii) Pollution Liability on a project basis, as provided in Section
16.1(f), with increased limits of [***].

     (iv) Contractor shall supply property insurance covering the Construction
Equipment in the amount of the value of the Construction Equipment [***].

     (v) Employment Practices Liability insurance as provided in Section
16.1(h).

     (vi) Should aircraft or watercraft of any kind be used by Contractor or any of
its Subcontractors or by anyone else on their behalf either on the Site or Nearby
Work Areas or off the Site or Nearby Work Areas, Contractor or its
Subcontractors shall maintain or cause the operator of the aircraft or
watercraft (as applicable) to maintain aircraft or watercraft public liability
insurance as provided in Section 16.1(i).

     16.3 Additional Requirements. All insurance coverages required by Sections 16.1 and
16.2 shall be issued by insurance carriers authorized to issue policies in the State where Work
is to be performed with a minimum rating of A-VII by AM Best Company, Inc. or equivalent, unless
otherwise mutually agreed. Coverages shall be issued using forms of coverage reasonably acceptable
to Owner and Contractor. Owner or Contractor, as applicable shall notify the other Party in
writing within thirty (30) Days of any cancellation, termination or material change in any required
insurance coverages hereunder. Failure of Contractor or Owner to maintain the coverages required
by this Agreement shall not relieve Contractor or Owner from any of their contractual
responsibilities under this Agreement. The requirements specified herein as to types, limits and
Owner’s approval of insurance coverage to be maintained by Contractor are not intended to and
shall not in any manner limit or quantify the liabilities and obligations assumed by Contractor
under this Agreement except as may otherwise be provided herein. Additionally, where authorized by
Owner, Contractor shall follow any recommendations made by the NRC, Nuclear Electric Insurance
Limited (“NEIL”), the Institute of Nuclear Power Operators (“INPO”) and American Nuclear Insurers
(“ANI”); provided that such recommendations may constitute a Change and may entitle Contractor to
seek a Change Order pursuant to Article 9.

     16.4 Additional Insureds. Contractor agrees that it shall add Owner, its Affiliates, Owner
Engineer, Facility co-owners (if any), and their employees, to Contractor’s insurance policies
required to be provided hereunder as additional insureds for their vicarious liability arising out
of the operations of Contractor, with the exception of Contractor’s Workers’

Page 94

 

Compensation,
Employment Practices Liability, Professional Liability and Pollution Liability coverages.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, Contractor and its Personnel shall be included in the OCIP (after
enrollment, if applicable) as Enrolled Parties and as additional insureds under Owner’s Builder’s
Risk policy (as described in Section 16.8) as an insured with primary coverage to such
entities. All coverages required of Contractor under this Agreement shall be primary to any
similar insurance maintained by Owner except with respect to the OCIP, Builders’ Risk coverages,
and the property coverage specified in Section 15.6(c). Each Party’s policies shall
contain a “cross-liability” or “severability of interest” clause or endorsement, where applicable.
Notwithstanding any other provisions of a Party’s policies, the insurance supplied by such Party
shall apply separately to each insured, named insured, or additional insured with respect to any
claim, suit, or judgment made or brought by or for any other insured, named insured, or additional
insured as though a separate policy had been issued to each, except the insurer’s liability shall
not be increased beyond the amount or amounts for which the insurer would have been liable had only
one insured been named. Owner shall not by reason of its inclusion under these Contractor provided
policies incur any liability directly to any insurance carrier for payment of premiums for these
policies, or incur liability to Contractor for payment of any policy retention or deductible.

     16.5
Waiver of Subrogation. Contractor shall waive and shall require its insurance carriers to waive, with respect to all
insurance policies (except Professional Liability Insurance) required to be maintained hereunder,
all rights of subrogation against Owner, its Affiliates, Facility co-owners (if any), and their
employees.

     16.6 Subcontractors. Contractor shall require its Subcontractors who perform Work at the
Site or Nearby Work Areas to provide the insurance coverages and limits of liability (if any) as
reasonable and appropriate for their Work. If Contractor requires any of its Subcontractors to
provide insurance coverages that are less than those specified above for Contractor, then
Contractor assumes responsibility for any liability that would have been covered by the policies
and limits specified above. The insurance limits may be provided through a combination of primary
and excess policies, including the umbrella form of policy. Subcontractor’s required Commercial
General Liability and Automobile insurance, except for Professional Liability, Pollution Liability,
Employment Practices Liability and Worker’s Compensation coverage, to the extent provided shall
include Owner, its Affiliates, Facility co-owners (if any), and their employees, as additional
insureds for their vicarious liability with respect to the activities of the Subcontractor and
provide that such insurance is primary to any similar insurance maintained by Owner.
Subcontractors shall waive, and shall cause their insurance carriers to waive, all right of
subrogation against Owner, its Affiliates, and Facility co-owners (if any) and their employees
under any required insurance coverage.

     16.7 Certificates of Insurance; Coverage Verification. Upon the Effective Date of this
Agreement, or as soon thereafter as is reasonably possible, but in all cases prior to performance
of any Work at the Site or Nearby Work Areas for the particular phase of the Work, or as provided
in this Article 16, Contractor shall provide (and with regard to Subcontractors performing
Work on the Site or Nearby Work Areas that are required to carry insurance shall maintain on file)
written proof of compliance with the above insurance requirements for Phase I and Phase II coverage
by delivering to:

Page 95

 

Owner’s Project Director

Progress Energy Florida, Inc.

15760 Powerline Road

Crystal River, Florida 34428

an original certificate of insurance completed on an insurance industry standard ACORD form by its
insurance carrier or broker certifying that (a) the insurance coverages as required above are in
effect, (b) Owner and other specified parties have been named as an additional insured to the
extent required above, (c) the insurance carrier to the extent required above has waived its right
of subrogation against Owner and other specified parties, and (d) the coverage shall not be
canceled, terminated or changed until thirty (30) Days after written notice is given to Owner.
Contractor shall maintain, update, and renew the certificate until Final Completion and
demobilization of Contractor’s Personnel from the Site and Nearby Work Areas. Owner may
change the person and/or address for delivery of insurance certificates by giving Contractor Notice
of the change. In the event an acceptable certificate of insurance becomes outdated, Owner may
give Notice to the Contractor who shall replace same within thirty (30) Days of such notice. After
giving Notice as provided above, Owner may elect to withhold payment of invoices, suspend Work, or
buy replacement insurance until acceptable and properly dated certificates of insurance are
received by Owner, notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement. Contractor shall permit
Owner to inspect a copy of any policy of insurance required under this Agreement at Contractor’s
offices upon request by Owner, provided that Contractor may redact any confidential provisions of
such policies.

     16.8 Builder’s Risk Insurance. Owner shall, during Phase II, or as mutually agreed by the
Parties, provide and maintain in full force and effect at no cost to Contractor or Contractor
Interests a Builder’s Risk insurance policy in amounts (coverage limits) and subject to terms and
conditions based on the status of the insurance market for nuclear plant construction at the time
construction is initiated at the Site or Nearby Work Areas, insuring the interest of Owner and
Contractor and Contractor Interests with coverage on an “All Risk” basis, including, but not
limited to, coverage against fire, lighting, wind damage, flood, hail, explosion, riot or civil
commotion, aircraft and other vehicles, and collapse at the Site or Nearby Work Areas. Such policy
shall be subject to the mutual agreement of the Parties, such agreement not to be unreasonably
withheld, based on the cost and availability of coverage, and based on the general conditions
prevailing in the insurance market at that time. The policy(ies) for such insurance shall be
secured and maintained by Owner, subject to the following conditions:

          (a) Unless covered otherwise, coverage shall include all materials, supplies and Equipment
that are intended for specific installation in the Facility while such materials, supplies and
Equipment are located at the Site or Nearby Work Areas and while in transit to the Site or Nearby
Work Areas within North America, and during temporary storage within North America other than at
the premises of the manufacturer, and shall provide coverage during the Work until replaced by
Owner’s operating property coverages. To the extent coverage is not provided by manufacturers,
suppliers or other parties shipping materials and Equipment from overseas locations, Owner shall
provide and maintain either as a part of the Builder’s Risk insurance or a separate coverage,
Marine Cargo insurance and Open Cargo insurance. The Builder’s Risk insurance shall provide
coverage for resultant damage to the Work due to any

Page 96

 

error in design, defect in Equipment or
material or faulty workmanship. However, coverage shall not be provided for repairing the actual
defective piece of Equipment or correcting the specific faulty workmanship, per LEG 2/96 wording
or equivalent, to the extent available on a commercially reasonable basis. Delay in start-up
coverage will be obtained under the Builder’s Risk Insurance and the Marine Cargo Insurance in
Owner’s sole discretion. Any recovery under any delay in start-up coverage that may be obtained
by Owner shall first be applied to reduce [***] of any schedule related liquidated damages owed by
Contractor pursuant to the Performance Incentive Plan in accordance with Exhibit H and
Delay Liquidated Damages owed by Contractor after any deductible period under the policy. The
balance of any proceeds from the delay in startup coverage that may be obtained by Owner shall be
for the sole benefit of Owner.

          (b) There shall not be an exclusion from coverage under the Builder’s Risk policy for
architects, engineers or design professionals for Contractor and Contractor Affiliates. The
Builder’s Risk policy will include a waiver of subrogation for:

     (i) Contractor and Contractor Affiliates (even in Contractor’s or its
Affiliates’ capacity as an architect, engineer or design professional), except for
any warranty obligations of Contractor under Article 14; and

     (ii) if available, Subcontractors providing design services supplied directly
to Contractor and Contractor’s Affiliates.

     Should Owner not be able to obtain Builder’s Risk insurance without the above
provisions in this Section 16.8 at a reasonable cost and on reasonable terms, the
Parties shall discuss the various options available for satisfying the intent of this
Section 16.8 including various deductibles and sublimits, taking into account the
cost and availability of the required coverage, the general conditions in the insurance
market, the risks inherent in performing the Work, and any other factors that the Parties
consider to be relevant. Should the Parties fail to reach mutual agreement, then Contractor
shall present a written proposal for procuring such insurance coverage, and the actual cost
to be incurred for obtaining such coverage. If Contractor provides such a proposal to
Owner, then Owner shall, at Owner’s option, either (i) authorize Contractor to obtain the
proposed coverage on a Time and Material Basis, (ii) indemnify Contractor, so that
Contractor has protection against liability equal to that available under the Builder’s Risk
policy (in absence of the exclusion), or (iii) terminate this Agreement under Section
22.4(b).

          (c) This insurance shall not cover any tools or clothing of workers or any tools,
Construction Equipment, protective fencing, scaffolding, and equipment owned, rented, leased or
used by Contractor and Contractor Interests in the performance of the Work, not intended for
specific installation into the Facility. In no event shall Owner, Owner Affiliates, Facility
co-owners (if any), or their employees be liable or responsible for loss, damage to or destruction
of any such items.

          (d) This Builders’ Risk insurance coverage limit shall be in an amount as reasonably
determined by Owner considering the value of the Facility to be constructed and the probable
maximum loss, as well as the cost and availability of coverage, and general conditions then
prevailing in the insurance market at that time.

Page 97

 

          (e) Contractor, Contractor Interests, Owner, Owner Affiliates, and Facility co-owners (if
any) waive (or shall be required to waive) all rights of recovery against each other for loss or
damage to any equipment used in connection with the Work, the Facility and any real or personal
property at the Site and the Nearby Work Areas (during performance of the Work, and thereafter in
connection with the Work) whether or not covered by any property insurance, whether such
liability arises in contract, tort (including fault, negligence or strict liability) or otherwise
on the part of any Party or entity. Contractor shall require all of its Subcontractors who
perform Work at the Site or Nearby Work Areas to waive all rights for loss of or damage to any
equipment used in connection with the Work and any property at the Site
and Nearby Work Areas (during the Work and thereafter), whether or not covered by any
property insurance, whether such liability arises in contract, tort (including fault, negligence
or strict liability) or otherwise on the part of any Party or entity. This provision shall not
apply to Contractor’s liability for property loss or damage pursuant to Section 16.8(j)
and shall not diminish or affect any liability or responsibility of Contractor for warranties,
guarantees, or other specified remedies for defects in the Facility. Otherwise, this Section
16.8(e) shall prevail over any other provision of this Agreement, and shall be broadly
construed.

          (f) Owner shall name Contractor and Contractor Interests as additional insureds to this
Builder’s Risk policy, without Contractor and Contractor Interests being liable for any premiums.

          (g) The Builder’s Risk policy shall contain a provision that the policy shall not be
cancelled, modified or allowed to expire, until at least thirty (30) Days’ prior written notice
has been given to Contractor and Contractor Interests, and the policy shall be primary and
non-contributory.

          (h) Any covered loss under the Builders’ Risk Policy described above is to be adjusted with
Owner and made payable to the Owner. Owner shall pay Contractor any insurance monies received as
Contractor’s or its Subcontractor’s interests may appear. Contractor shall then be responsible to
pay its Subcontractors in accordance with its agreements with its Subcontractors, or as their
interests may appear.

          (i) Contractor and Contractor Interests shall not make a claim against the Builders Risk
policy without Notice to the Owner as the primary holder of the policy.

          (j) The Builders Risk Insurance supplied by Owner under this Section 16.8 shall have
a deductible in an amount to be determined in Owner’s sole discretion, which shall be allocated to
the Party that has the risk of loss as specified herein. Should Owner choose to have a deductible
[***], the deductible [***] and any loss in excess of policy limits or otherwise not covered by
any insurance shall be Owner’s responsibility, and Owner hereby releases Contractor and Contractor
Interests for any such liability for any loss or damages (during the Work and thereafter in
connection with the Work), whether arising in contract, tort or otherwise, and irrespective of the
fault, negligence or strict liability of any of Contractor

Page 98

 

Interests. Owner shall reimburse
Contractor its costs and charges resulting from a covered event on a Time and Material Basis for
any such corrective Work [***].

     16.9 Payment of Premiums. Each Party shall pay all premiums for insurance that it is
required or chooses to obtain, including any charges for required waivers of subrogation or the
endorsement of additional insureds. Contractor shall be reimbursed for all such premiums and
charges on a Time and Material Basis for all coverages required to be obtained under this
Agreement.

     16.10 Owner Representative.  Contractor understands that Owner may have an administrator on-Site or Nearby Work Areas at all
times in which Contractor or its Personnel are at the Site and Nearby Work Areas. Contractor shall
interface and cooperate with Owner’s administrator.

ARTICLE 17 — LIMITATION OF LIABILITY

ARTICLE 19 — PROPRIETARY DATA; SOFTWARE LICENSE

     19.1 Protection of Proprietary Data.

          (a) Proprietary Data. Any Proprietary Data of a Party that is disclosed or provided
by that Party (the “Providing Party”) to the other Party (the “Receiving Party”)
shall be marked “Proprietary” or the like on each page in which the respective Party claims a
proprietary or confidential interest therein (including within electronic media, as appropriate).
Should the Providing Party discover within [***] of the original disclosure to the Receiving
Party, however, that a particular page (including within electronic media, as appropriate) of
Proprietary Data should have been marked “Proprietary” or the like and was not, then the Providing
Party may send written correspondence to the Receiving Party re-designating such page (including
within electronic media, as appropriate) as “Proprietary” and send an additional copy of the
Proprietary Data so marked. Thereafter, the Receiving Party shall treat such page (including
within electronic media, as appropriate) as Proprietary Data. The terms and conditions of this
Agreement are deemed to be Proprietary Data of all Parties. Each Party agrees to make commercially
reasonable efforts to mark only each document or page as “Proprietary” or the like if it contains
information that meets the definition of Proprietary Data as set forth in Article 1 and,
for Westinghouse, consistent with WCAP-7211, (Rev. 5). If data is unmarked, then such data may be
disclosed to third parties. In the event that the Receiving Party discloses Proprietary Data that
is marked Proprietary and is Contractor Non Disclosable Data (as defined below), or otherwise is
not permitted to be disclosed under the provision of this Article 19, the Recipient agrees
to make commercially reasonable efforts to recover all copies of such Proprietary Data and provide
notice to the party receiving such Proprietary Data as to the proprietary nature of the
Proprietary Data. In the event that either Party inadvertently supplies Proprietary Data that the
other Party is not entitled to receive under this Agreement, then the Providing Party may send
written correspondence to the Receiving Party requesting the return of all copies of such
documents and the Receiving Party agrees to return all copies of

Page 101

 

such Proprietary Data.
Notwithstanding this Article 19, specific data that is in the public
domain or is not developed by Contractor and its Subcontractors but is encompassed within a
document that contains Proprietary Data, is not Proprietary and may be extracted and disclosed,
although the document that contains Proprietary Data as well as the specific public domain data
will be treated in a manner consistent with this Article 19.

          (b) Preferential Rights Agreements. Westinghouse has entered into substantially
identical Preferential Rights Agreements (each a “Preferential Rights Agreement”) with
Owner and a number of other NuStart members who are potential customers for the AP1000 Nuclear
Power Plant. Notwithstanding the other provisions of this Article 19, Contractor shall
have the right to disclose the terms and conditions of this Agreement (including pricing) to
independent auditors of Westinghouse and independent auditors of such other NuStart members who
have entered into a Preferential Rights Agreement with Westinghouse, but only to the extent
required to satisfy the requirements of each such Preferential Rights Agreement. Except as
otherwise required by a court order or other applicable Law (none of which is known to apply at
this time), any such disclosure shall be made only after complying with the following conditions:
(i) Westinghouse will provide Owner with at least seven (7) Days prior Notice of the disclosure,
including the name of the NuStart member and the third party auditor to which the information to
be disclosed; (ii) such disclosures shall only be made to a third party auditor that has executed
a reasonable confidentiality agreement with Contractor governing the disclosed information (a copy
of which shall be included with the Notice); and (iii) Westinghouse will exercise commercially
reasonable efforts to handle in a consistent manner the disclosures required under each of the
Preferential Rights Agreements. Should any court order or other applicable Law restrict the
ability of Westinghouse to comply with the above stated conditions, Westinghouse shall give Notice
of the restriction to Owner and Stone & Webster, and the Parties shall endeavor in good faith to
take appropriate steps to satisfy the intent of this Section 19.1(b), consistent with the
requirements of such court order or applicable Law.

          (c) Government Approvals. Owner may disclose Proprietary Data of Contractor or
Contractor Interests to Government Authorities as necessary to obtain Government Approvals. In
the use of any Proprietary Data of the other Party for the purpose of providing required
information to or securing Government Approvals from any Government Authority, Owner and
Contractor shall cooperate to minimize the amount of Proprietary Data required to be furnished
consistent with the interests of the other Party and the requirements of the Government Authority
involved. Furthermore, Owner is permitted to disclose Proprietary Data of Contractor or
Contractor Interests as required by Law, provided that Owner shall give Contractor prompt and
reasonable prior Notice so as to allow Contractor to object, seek a protective order, or pursue
similar protections. Owner is also permitted to disclose to the appropriate Government Authority
any noncompliance or violation of Law within the jurisdiction of such Government Authority.

          (d) Owner’s Proprietary Data. Contractor agrees that it will not, during or after
the term of this Agreement, disclose any Proprietary Data of Owner and its Affiliates, which is
provided to Contractor during the performance of Work under this Agreement, including but not
limited to, its costs, charges, rates, records, operating procedures, and methods of doing
business, to any Person (other than Subcontractors as necessary to perform

Page 102

 

the work under an
agreement substantially in the form set out in Exhibit O), or to the general
public for any reason or purpose whatsoever without the prior written consent of Owner, and
that such Proprietary Data received by Contractor and any of its Subcontractors shall be used by
it exclusively in connection with the performance of its responsibilities under this Agreement
relating to the Work. Nothing herein, however, shall prevent Contractor from disclosing
Proprietary Data of Owner or its Affiliates as required by Law, provided that Contractor shall
give Owner prompt and reasonable prior Notice so as to allow Owner to object, seek a protective
order or pursue similar protections. Contractor is also permitted to disclose to the appropriate
Government Authority any noncompliance or violation of Law within the jurisdiction of such
Government Authority. In addition, Contractor shall have the right to receive and use
Proprietary Data of Owner for the purposes of performing or assisting in the performance of
start-up, commissioning, licensing and start-up maintenance services for other AP1000 Nuclear
Power Plant owners and with Owner’s prior written consent to disclose Proprietary Data of Owner to
such owners or Subcontractors for such purposes and under provisions of confidentiality. Nothing
herein grants the right to Contractor (or implies a license under any patent) to sell, license,
lease or cause to have sold, licensed or leased, any Proprietary Data supplied by Owner except as
expressly permitted under this Agreement.

          (e) Use of Contractor’s Deliverable Proprietary Data by Owner. Both Owner and
Contractor acknowledge and agree that certain types of Proprietary Data of Contractor as listed in
Table 2 of Exhibit A delivered to Owner under this Agreement may be disclosed on a
confidential basis without the prior consent of Contractor (hereby referred to as “Contractor
Disclosable Data”) as described in Section 19.1(g) and (h), and that certain
other Proprietary Data of Contractor may not be disclosed by Owner to any third-parties without
the prior consent of Contractor (hereby referred to as “Contractor Non-Disclosable Data”),
as described in Section 19.1 (i) and (j). With respect to Proprietary Data
provided by Contractor, Owner may use said Proprietary Data or copies thereof only for the
purposes of troubleshooting, response to plant events, evaluation of system or component
performance, scheduling, investigations, initial fuel loading, refueling operations, training,
operation, inspection, maintenance, repair, modification, decommissioning, licensing, obtaining
insurance, performing plant assessments, or ancillary construction, in each case associated with
the Facility (and associated simulator) (collectively the “Facility Purposes”). Owner
shall not use Contractor’s Proprietary Data for any other purpose, and Owner shall comply with the
confidentiality obligations set forth in this Agreement. Nothing herein grants the right to Owner
(or implies a license under any patent or other intellectual property right) to sell, license,
lease, or cause to have sold any Proprietary Data supplied by Contractor except as expressly
permitted under this Agreement.

          (f) Title to Proprietary Data. Subject to Section 19.2 and 19.3, title to
all Proprietary Data provided by the Providing Party to the Receiving Party and all copies made by
or for the Receiving Party in whole or in part from such Proprietary Data remains with the
Providing Party. The Receiving Party agrees to keep such Proprietary Data confidential, to
include the Providing Party’s proprietary markings on all copies thereof and all excerpts taken
therefrom, to use such Proprietary Data only for the Facility Purposes and not to sell, transfer,
license, sublicense, disclose or otherwise make available any of such Proprietary Data to others
except as expressly permitted by this Agreement.

Provider. Owner may disclose Contractor’s Proprietary Data identified as Contractor
Non-Disclosable Data solely to third party service providers (also a “Recipient”) with the
prior written approval of Contractor, not to be unreasonably withheld or unreasonably conditioned,
provided that such disclosure is exclusively for Facility Purposes, and as reasonably required for
a designated service and purpose. Prior to any such disclosure by Owner, Owner shall first
identify to Contractor:

ARTICLE 20 — ENVIRONMENTAL; HAZARDOUS MATERIALS

     20.1 Material Safety Data Sheets. To the extent required by applicable Laws, Contractor
shall provide to Owner Material Safety Data Sheets covering Hazardous Materials to be furnished,
used, applied, or stored by Contractor, or any of its Subcontractors, at the Site and Nearby Work
Areas in connection with the Work. Contractor shall coordinate with Owner’s Project Director to
provide a listing of such Hazardous Materials and their quantities at the Site and Nearby Work
Areas for purposes of chemical inventory reporting pursuant to 40 C.F.R. Part 370 and similar state
regulations. The design of AP1000 Nuclear Power Plant is in compliance with requirements of 10
C.F.R. 20.1406(b).

     20.2 Facility Use, Storage and Removal. When the use or storage of explosives or other
Hazardous Materials or equipment is necessary for the performance of the Work, Contractor shall
exercise the utmost care and shall carry on its activities under the supervision of properly
qualified personnel in accordance with applicable Laws. Before Mechanical Completion of a Unit and
associated Ancillary Facilities, Contractor shall remove from the portion of the Site and Nearby
Work Areas on which such Unit and associated Ancillary Facilities are located in accordance with
applicable Laws any explosives and other Hazardous Materials that Contractor or its Subcontractors
used, stored or located on such portion of the Site and Nearby Work Areas, unless the same have
been permanently incorporated into such Unit and associated Ancillary Facilities, provided that, if
any such explosives and other Hazardous Materials are necessary for completion of the Work,
Contractor shall be permitted to retain such explosives and other Hazardous Materials on such
portion of the Site and Nearby Work Areas but only if, and to the extent, they are retained in
compliance with the COL, applicable Laws, other Owner Permits, Project Policies and Procedures, and
Owner’s applicable operating plant policies and procedures.

     20.3 Handling, Collection, Removal, Transportation and Disposal. Unless otherwise agreed
by the Parties, Contractor shall be responsible for the proper handling, collection, clean-up and
containerizing of Hazardous Materials brought onto the Site or Nearby Work Areas or created by
Contractor or Subcontractors, supplied to Contractor by Owner, or spilled or introduced into or at
the Site or Nearby Work Areas by Contractor or any Subcontractor, including any such Hazardous
Materials furnished, used, applied or stored at the
Site or Nearby Work Areas by Contractor, including used oils, greases, and solvents from flushing
and cleaning processes performed under the Agreement. Contractor shall be responsible for the
proper storage, transportation and disposal of any Hazardous Materials provided by Contractor, and
Contractor shall keep Owner routinely informed of the quantities of Contractor hazardous wastes
generated and disposed of by Contractor. After Mechanical Completion, any Hazardous Materials
(after proper handling, collection and containerizing by Contractor or any of its Subcontractors)
will be delivered to Owner for proper storage, transportation and disposal. Owner is responsible
for the proper storage and transportation and prompt and proper disposal of all Hazardous Materials
generated or remaining at the Site and Nearby Work Areas after Mechanical Completion. Activities
performed by Contractor in connection with the handling, collection and containerizing of the
Hazardous Materials shall be performed in accordance with the requirements of all Government
Authorities and all applicable Laws, other Owner Permits, Project Policies and Procedures, and
Owner’s applicable operating plant policies and procedures.

Page 112

 

     20.4 Notice of Discovery of Pre-existing Condition. Contractor shall provide prompt Notice
to Owner of any suspected preexisting Hazardous Materials at the Site or Nearby Work Areas that
Contractor finds during performance of the Work not previously identified by Owner to Contractor.
Owner shall be responsible for any further action required after the discovery and notification of
any such pre-existing Hazardous Materials at the Site and Nearby Work Areas, provided that
Contractor promptly ceases any activity that may disturb or exacerbate the condition, and promptly
notifies Owner of the existence of such Hazardous Materials. To the extent any such pre-existing
Hazardous Materials at the Site or Nearby Work Areas increases costs or causes a delay in the
performance of the Work, Contractor shall be entitled to a Change Order.

     20.5 Environmental Audit. Owner shall have the right to conduct on-site environmental
reviews of any of the Contractor’s facilities at any time to verify compliance with this Agreement.
Contractor shall use commercially reasonable efforts to include in the Subcontracts a clause
stating that Owner shall have the right to conduct reasonable on-site environmental audits of any
Subcontractor’s facilities to verify compliance with this Agreement.

ARTICLE 21 — TITLE; RISK OF LOSS; PROPERTY DAMAGE LIABILITY

     21.1 Transfer of Title. Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, title to
each item of the Equipment shall pass to Owner at the time such item of the Equipment has
physically entered the boundary of the Site or Nearby Work Areas. The passage of title to Owner
shall not be deemed an acceptance or approval of such Equipment (or any Work), affect the
allocation of risk of loss, or otherwise relieve Contractor of any obligation under this Agreement
to provide and pay for transportation and storage in connection with the Equipment.
Notwithstanding the passage of title from Contractor to Owner, Contractor shall remain responsible
for satisfying its obligations under this Agreement. Should Owner sell or transfer an ownership
interest in the Facility or Unit to another Person in accordance with Section 37.7,
pro-rata title to each item of Equipment shall
simultaneously pass to such Person in accordance with the provisions of the agreement that is to be
entered into in by the Parties and such Person in the form attached as Exhibit EE to this
Agreement.

     21.2 Risk of Loss and Property Damage Liability. 

          (a) Whether or not title has passed to Owner, the risk of loss for each System shall remain
with Contractor until Turnover of such System at which time such risk of loss shall pass to the
Owner. For Equipment, structures or other components that are not part of a System, Contractor
shall retain risk of loss until Owner takes care, custody and control of such Equipment,
structures or other components or upon Substantial Completion of the applicable Unit, whichever
occurs earlier, at which time such risk of loss shall pass to the Owner. When risk of loss is with
Contractor, Contractor’s liability for any loss or damage to any Owner property, real or
personal, shall be limited to Contractor’s (i) duty to replace, repair or reconstruct the System,
Equipment, structure or other component as applicable, that is lost, damaged or destroyed (not
arising out of or resulting from a Nuclear Incident) before the risk of

Page 113

 

loss of the System, Equipment, structures or other components as applicable, is transferred to
Owner, and (ii) [***], Owner shall reimburse Contractor for Contractor’s costs and charges (on a
Time and Materials Basis) incurred in performing such replacement, repair or reconstruction, as
applicable, from applicable insurance or, if not reimbursed from such insurances, from Owner.
After transfer of risk of loss to Owner, the risk of loss for the Systems, Equipment, structures
or other components that Contractor removes from the Facility or from the Site or Nearby Work
Areas for repair, replacement or refurbishment under a warranty or otherwise will be transferred
back to Contractor at the time that Contractor begins work to remove such System, Equipment,
structures or other components at the Facility. Risk of loss shall revert to Owner upon
subsequent turnover of such System or Equipment that is repaired, replaced or refurbished.
Notwithstanding the passage of risk of loss from Contractor to Owner, Contractor shall remain
responsible for satisfying its obligations under this Agreement.

          (b) When the risk of loss transfers to Owner, the risk of loss, destruction or damage of the
System, Equipment, structures or other components shall be borne by and remain with Owner until
the completion of the Facility and thereafter except for the transfer back to Contractor of risk
of loss with respect to specific limited Systems, Equipment, structures or other components that
takes place under Section 21.2(a) with respect to the items that Contractor removes from
the Facility for repair, replacement or refurbishment. Upon the transfer of risk of loss to
Owner, the Owner on behalf of itself, its Affiliates and insurers, hereby releases Contractor and
Contractor Interests from any and all liability for loss, damage or destruction to the Facility,
the Work and any Owner property related to the AP1000 Nuclear Power Plant wherever located of any
character, real or personal, during the Work and thereafter, whether arising in contract
(including indemnity and warranty), tort or otherwise, and irrespective of the fault, negligence
or strict liability of those released. At Owner’s written request after risk of loss passes to
Owner, Contractor agrees to repair, replace or reconstruct any damage or destruction on a Time and
Materials Basis.

          (c) This provision forms an integral portion of the consideration hereunder and is provided
in lieu of Contractor being required to provide additional duplicative insurances. This
Section 21.2 is intended to be and shall be interpreted as being consistent with the risk
of loss and liability allocation provisions set forth in Section 16.8 that address certain
risk of loss and liability allocation issues and related issues with respect to builders risk
insurance; however, this Section 21.2 is broader than Section 16.8 and is
applicable in all situations regardless of whether builders risk insurance or other insurance is
applicable and regardless of whether a particular loss or casualty is covered by any form of
insurance. For purposes of clarification the risk of loss and liability allocation provisions set
forth herein apply only to this Agreement and the activities and transactions contemplated hereby.
If the Contractor or either of the Consortium Members enter into other contracts with Owner for
the provision of services and equipment, then the risk of loss and liability allocation with
regard to such services and equipment shall be governed only by the terms and provisions of such
other contracts.

     21.3 Construction Equipment. Contractor is responsible for the care, custody and control
of, and shall bear the risk of loss or damage to Construction Equipment delivered to the Work
location, Facility, Site or Nearby Work Areas by Contractor or its Subcontractors, that will not become a permanent part of the
Facility and which are owned, used or leased by Contractor

Page 114

 

or its Subcontractors to perform the
Work, irrespective of the negligence or fault of Owner. Owner is not responsible for any loss of
or damage to the Construction Equipment of Contractor resulting from the tortious act or omission
of any other contractor.

ARTICLE
22 — SUSPENSION AND TERMINATION; CANCELLATION OF [***]

WITHOUT CAUSE

     22.1 Suspension.

          (a) Owner’s Right to Suspend Without Cause. Owner may, without cause, order
Contractor in writing to suspend the Work in whole or in part for such period of time as Owner may
determine. Any such suspension of the Work without cause shall constitute a Change in accordance
with Article 9.

          (b) Owner’s Right to Suspend for Cause. Owner may suspend the Work in whole or in
part for cause, based on any material breach by Contractor, by giving Notice to Contractor. Any
such suspension shall be subject to the following conditions:

     (i) If the breach involves the health and safety of the public or the work
force, if the breach involves a material violation of Law, if the breach is one for
which Owner has a stop work right under Section 5.13 or Contractor fails to
obtain or maintain required insurance, then such suspension shall be effective upon
receipt of Notice by Contractor, or as otherwise specified by Owner.

     (ii) For any breach not covered by Section 22.1(b)(i) above: (A) if
the breach is capable of being cured within [***] from receipt of Notice from Owner,
then Owner’s right to suspend shall begin immediately following Contractor’s failure
to cure the breach within [***] following Notice of such breach; and (B) if such
breach is not capable of being cured within such [***] period, then the Owner’s
right to suspend shall not begin until the expiration of such longer period as is
reasonably necessary to cure the breach, so long as Contractor has given Owner a
written plan that is reasonably acceptable to Owner within such [***] period
describing how such breach is to be cured and Contractor has commenced the cure
within such [***] period and has thereafter diligently pursued, and continues to
diligently pursue, the cure in accordance with such plan.

     (iii) The scope of any suspension of Work by Owner under this Section
22.1(b) shall only be to the extent reasonably necessary to avoid injury or
damage, or as reasonably necessary to insure that the quality of the Work is not
jeopardized, or as necessary to avoid further health and safety issues, violations
of Law, or as reasonably necessary to minimize Owner’s damages.

     (iv) Suspension of Work by Owner under this Section 22.1(b) shall not
be the sole basis for a Change for either Party.

     (v) This right of suspension by Owner is in addition to any other right of
Owner to stop Work under any other provision of this Agreement.

Page 115

 

          (c) Contractor’s Right to Suspend. Contractor may suspend the Work without liability
and such suspension shall be treated as if Owner had ordered a suspension in accordance with
Section 22.1(a) after the occurrence of any of the following:

     (i) Owner fails to pay an amount that has become due and payable by it to
Contractor under this Agreement within [***] after receipt of Notice from Contractor
that such amount is past due, unless such amount is the subject of a good faith
dispute between the Parties and Owner has paid all undisputed amounts and all
portions of the disputed amount that are required to be paid prior to the resolution
of the dispute;

     (ii) Owner is in material breach of this Agreement (other than those
obligations relating to the matters set forth in Section 22.1(c)(i) or
(iii)) and, if such breach is capable of being cured within [***] from receipt
of Notice from Contractor, Owner fails to cure the breach within [***] following
Notice of such breach; or, if such breach is not capable of being cured within such
[***] period, such longer period as reasonably necessary to cure the breach, so long
as Owner has given Contractor a written plan that is reasonably acceptable to
Contractor within such [***] period describing how such breach is to be cured and
Owner has commenced the cure within such [***] period and has thereafter diligently
pursued, and continues to diligently pursue, the cure in accordance with the
reasonably acceptable written plan; or

     (iii) Owner fails to obtain or maintain insurance as required under Article
16 and Contractor has given Owner Notice of the suspension under this
Section 22.1(c)(iii).

The scope of any suspension by Contractor hereunder shall only be permitted (a) to the extent that
Owner’s breach materially impairs Contractor’s ability to perform the Work; or (b) to the extent
such suspension is reasonably necessary to (i) avoid injury or damage, (ii) insure that the quality
of the Work is not jeopardized, (iii) avoid violation of Law, or (iv) minimize Contractor’s
damages. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Contractor may suspend the Work immediately without being
required to show any impairment of its ability to perform the Work, if Owner fails to provide the
Worker’s Compensation, Commercial General Liability (or Umbrella) or Builder’s Risk Insurance
required hereunder. This right of suspension by Contractor under this Section 22.1(c) is
in addition to any other right of Contractor to stop Work under any other provision of this
Agreement.

          (d) Payment Obligation. Subject to Owner’s rights with respect to terminating the
Agreement for cause, [***], Owner will continue to meet the payment obligations to Contractor for
Work performed before any suspension and for Work performed during any partial suspension.

          (e) Protection of Work. During any suspension by Contractor or Owner, Contractor
shall make commercially reasonable efforts in consultation with Owner to protect, store and secure
the Equipment and all Work against deterioration, loss or damage and to minimize the charges for
the suspension.

Page 116

 

          (f) Resumption of Work. Contractor shall resume any suspended Work promptly
following either cure of the applicable breach or receipt of Notice from Owner to resume Work if
the suspension was begun at Owner’s request.

          (g) Recovery of Costs. In the case of a suspension of Work under Section
22.1(b), Owner shall describe in its Notice provided pursuant to Section 22.1(b): (i)
those portions of the Work that are suspended and (ii) those portions of the Work (if any) and
other activities which Contractor shall perform during the suspension period. Contractor shall
reduce the amount of its craft labor on Site or Nearby Work Areas commensurate with such scope of
Contractor’s scope of responsibilities during such suspension period. [***]. In the case of such
a suspension of Work under Section 22.1(b), Contractor shall place the Work in a safe
condition at no cost to Owner, including securing cranes, covering hazardous construction openings
and placing any hazardous material in a safe state.

     22.2 Termination by Owner for Cause.

          (a) Bases for Termination. Owner may terminate the Agreement upon Notice to
Contractor if:

     (i) Contractor is in material breach of this Agreement and fails to cure the
breach within [***] following Notice of such breach or, if such breach is not
capable of being cured within such [***] period, such longer period as is reasonably
necessary so long as Contractor has given Owner a detailed written plan within such
[***]period describing how the breach is to be cured that is reasonably acceptable
to Owner, and further provided that Contractor has commenced the cure within such
[***] period and thereafter diligently pursues the cure in accordance with the
reasonably acceptable written plan;

     (ii) Owner is unable to obtain a COL by [***] solely due to defective or
nonconforming Work of Contractor, or solely due to Contractor’s breach of this
Agreement and in either case Contractor fails to cure such defective or
nonconforming Work or breach following receipt of Notice and a reasonable
opportunity to cure;

     (iii) Contractor fails to comply with the provisions of Section 3.4(f)
within [***] from receipt of Notice from Owner;

     (iv) Either Consortium Member is Insolvent unless the other Consortium Member
promptly provides reasonable assurances acceptable to Owner for performance of the

Equipment located outside the Site or Nearby Work Areas which is intended to be incorporated into
the Facility; (ii) utilize any of Contractor’s Construction Equipment or tools at the Site or
Nearby Work Areas (subject to the exclusion set forth in Section 22.2(d)); and (iii)
subject to Section 3.7(e) of this Agreement, succeed automatically, without the necessity
of any further action by Contractor, to the interests of Contractor in any or all Subcontracts
entered into by Contractor with respect to the Work for which Owner, at its sole option, elects to
succeed, and upon such election, as between Owner and Contractor, Owner shall be required to
compensate such Subcontractors only for compensation becoming due and payable to such
Subcontractors under the terms of their Subcontracts with Contractor from and after the date Owner
elects to succeed to the interests of Contractor in such Subcontracts. In the event of any
termination pursuant to this Section 22.2, Owner may, at its option, finish the Work and
other work by whatever method Owner may deem expedient.

          (d) Special Tools and Equipment. Notwithstanding the provisions of Section

Owner. If there are not any such agreed-upon prices in this Agreement for such Equipment,
Services and/or materials, Contractor shall be credited for the Equipment, Services and materials
[***]. Contractor shall also be paid or allowed a credit for the fair market rental value for any
of Contractor’s Construction Equipment or tools used to complete the Work.

          (i) Survival of Rights. It is agreed that if Owner exercises its right to terminate
this Agreement for any of the reasons set forth in Section 22.2(a), the Parties shall have
no further liability to one another other than (i) any liability that arose prior to the
termination of this Agreement pursuant to this Section 22.2, (ii) those liabilities that
expressly survive termination of this Agreement, (iii) those obligations, liabilities, payments
and credits described in Sections 22.2(c), (d), (e), (f), (g) and (h), and (iv) any
liability of Contractor to Owner based on fraud or willful misconduct. If, after such
termination, it is determined that Owner did not have a basis for terminating the Agreement under
Section 22.2, or that the default was excusable, the rights and obligations of the Parties
shall be the same as if the Agreement had been terminated for the convenience of Owner in
accordance with Section 22.3.

     22.3 Termination by Owner for Convenience.

          (a) Termination for Convenience. Owner may, at any time, terminate the Agreement for
Owner’s convenience and without cause.

          (b) Termination Costs. In the event of termination of this Agreement for the Owner’s

          (c) Governmental and Other Suspension. Either Party may terminate this Agreement
upon Notice to the other Party if there is a final, unappealable order of a Government Authority
having jurisdiction over the Facility, which requires the Work to be permanently stopped; or, if
there are suspensions in the Work in whole or in part due to Force Majeure of more than [***], or
more than an aggregate of [***] out of any [***] period; provided however, that the order or
occurrence that forms the basis for such stoppage or suspension is not due to the fault or breach
of this Agreement by the Party that desires to terminate the Agreement. Either Party may
terminate this Agreement upon Notice to the other Party if there are stoppages or suspensions in
the Work in whole or in part due to any combination of Governmental Authority actions, Force
Majeure and/or (to the extent Contractor is the Party exercising rights under this Section
22.4(c)), Owner suspensions for convenience, that in the aggregate result in more than [***]
of suspension, or more than an aggregate of [***]of suspension out of any [***] period; provided
however, that the order or occurrence that forms the basis for such stoppage or suspension is not

          (b) Contractor also shall inform its employees and cause its Subcontractors to inform to its
employees that they may notify Owner’s Project Director or Contractor’s Employee Concerns Program
Representative, of any nuclear or radiological safety issue that arises in the course of Work
performed at the Facility, and that they are free at any time, to contact the NRC with regard to
any such issue. In turn, the Contractor and its Subcontractors are required to promptly advise
the Owner’s Project Director of any nuclear or radiological safety issue brought to the
Contractor’s attention, whether the issue is brought directly to Contractor or filed with a
governmental agency or court.

          (c) Contractor shall designate an individual to serve as the contact for Employee Concerns
Program matters. The designee, in addition to other duties, shall be responsible for:

     (i) Establishing contact with the Owner’s Employee Concerns Program
representative as soon as practical after initially arriving on Site and Nearby Work
Areas and providing the representative with names and work locations of each
employee of Contractor performing the Work at the Site on a weekly basis thereafter.

     (ii) Furnishing the Owner’s Employee Concerns Program representative with
information on impending terminations so the representative can be available to
conduct exit interviews.

          (d) Contractor’s employees shall be expected to participate in an exit interview prior to
termination, transfer, or demobilization from the Site and Nearby Work Areas. Contractor
employees will be expected, at a minimum, to complete and sign an exit questionnaire.

          (e) If a Contractor’s employee fails to participate in the exit interview and furnish the
completed and signed questionnaire, Contractor shall, upon request, furnish to the Owner’s
Employee Concerns Program Representative the employee’s name, work locations while at the Site or
Nearby Work Areas, work discipline, start and end dates for Work at the Site and Nearby Work
Areas, and employee’s current residence address, in order that Owner may follow up with that
individual by mail.

          (f) Contractor shall comply with Owner’s policy regarding intimidation and harassment or any
form of discrimination against an employee for raising nuclear safety or quality concerns.

          (g) Contractor shall comply with the requirements of 10 CFR §50.7, “Employee Protection.”

          (h) Contractor and its Subcontractors are further required to aggressively pursue and
investigate any employee allegation of discrimination for engaging in protected activity.
Contractor shall promptly notify the Owner’s Project Director, and Owner’s Employee Concerns
Representative, upon Contractor’s receipt of such an allegation, whether formal or informal, or
upon receiving information that a complaint or allegation has been filed under Section 211 of the
Energy Reorganization Act of 1974, as amended, or 10 CFR 50.7 by a

Page 132

 

current or former employee of
Contractor or Contractor’s Subcontractor. Contractor shall cooperate fully in any investigation
into such allegations, whether by Owner or a government agency. Contractor shall cooperate fully
with Owner and its legal counsel in responding to any claim asserted under Section 211 or 10 CFR
50.7.

          (i) Contractor shall ensure that its employment policies and agreements, including agreements
to settle any allegations of discrimination, do not contain any provision that would prohibit,
restrict, or otherwise discourage an employee from participating in any protected activity, as
defined in Section 211 of the Energy Reorganization Act of 1974, as amended, including contacting
the NRC.

     24.9 Use of Non-English Speaking Workers. Prior to the beginning of any Work at the Site
and Nearby Work Areas, Contractor shall notify Owner if it anticipates using any non-English
speaking Personnel at the Site and Nearby Work Areas. If such Personnel are used, Contractor shall
provide an on-site bilingual person to translate the Site orientation and safety information
training. Contractor shall be solely responsible for ensuring that the non-English-speaking
Personnel are fully trained and understand the Site orientation and safety information. In
addition, any time Contractor’s non-English speaking Personnel are present at the Site or Nearby
Work Areas, the Contractor shall provide at least one bilingual person in each applicable work crew
capable of both communicating in English and instructing the non-English speaking workers.
Contractor shall specifically identify these bilingual interpreters to Owner’s Project Director.
For this purpose, a work crew is defined as any worker or group of workers in any specific location
on the Site or Nearby Work Areas, regardless of how Contractor organizes his work force. Owner may
assist in facilitating communication of important safety information by offering bilingual versions
of safety brochures or video presentations. If these are available, it in no way relieves
Contractor of
providing the interpreter services stated above. Contractor shall provide signage at the Site and
Nearby Work Areas in the language(s) required by applicable Law.

     24.10 Code of Ethics. Contractor, Contractor’s employees, and employees of Contractor’s
Subcontractors shall comply with Owner’s Code of Ethics. Owner will make the Code of Ethics
available to Contractor in order for Contractor to provide a copy to any Contractor employees and
employees of Contractor’s Subcontractors with (i) a presence for a single period of fifteen (15)
Days or more upon property owned or leased by Owner or any of Owner’s Affiliates and/or (ii) access
to Owner’s business critical infrastructure. Each such Contractor employee and employee of
Contractor’s Subcontractors shall sign an acknowledgment form in substantially the form set forth
by Owner. Contractor shall retain the signed forms for Owner audit purposes for the term of the
Agreement plus one (1) year. The audit right provided herein shall not be restricted by any other
audit provisions of the Agreement.

     24.11 Compliance Audits. Owner may audit the records and activities of Contractor as
necessary to verify compliance with this Article 24.

ARTICLE 25 — RECORDS AND AUDIT

     25.1 Technical Documentation. Except to the extent applicable Laws require a longer
retention, Contractor shall maintain and shall cause its Subcontractors to maintain all technical

Page 133

 

documentation relative to the Equipment in accordance with the Quality Assurance Program. For made
to order engineered Equipment that is not subject to 10 CFR 50 Appendix B, Contractor shall use
commercially reasonable efforts to include covenants in its Subcontracts that requires the
Subcontractor (a) to maintain appropriate technical documentation (e.g. weld records,
non-conformance reports, heat treatment records, etc.) for a minimum period of three (3) years
after delivery of the Equipment to which it pertains, and (b) to provide Notice to Owner of the
proposed technical document destruction, and (c) to give Owner the option of taking possession of
such technical documentation within ninety (90) Days of receipt of the Notice described in
Section 25.1(b) above. Contractor will cooperate reasonably with Owner in connection with
Owner’s efforts to benefit from the above described Subcontractor clauses, but Contractor will not
be required to file suit or otherwise commence legal proceedings against such Subcontractors.

     25.2  Other Records. Contractor agrees that it shall keep and submit records of its
Equipment and material Site and Nearby Work Areas receipt records and a breakdown of contract
prices between installation value and material in accordance with the FERC requirements in
Exhibit H.5.

     25.3 Accounting Records. 
Except to the extent applicable Laws require a longer retention, Contractor shall maintain and
shall cause its first tier Subcontractors to maintain accounting records of costs necessary to
substantiate charges relating to the Work performed or provided under this Agreement on a Time and
Materials Basis or Target Price Basis, or other reimbursable basis in accordance with generally
accepted accounting principles in the United States, as set forth in pronouncements of the
Financial Accounting Standards Board (and its predecessors) and the American Institute of Certified
Public Accountants, or International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS), for a period of three
(3) years after Final Completion, except that records relating to Sales Taxes for such items must
be retained as specified in Section 25.6.

     25.4 General Maintenance of Records. Notwithstanding anything in Section 25.1 or
25.3 to the contrary, Contractor shall ensure that its maintenance of records complies with
the applicable provisions of 10 CFR §50.71 and Article 5 of this Agreement.

     25.5 Right to Audit. This Section 25.5 governs Owner’s rights of access to
Contractor’s records for purposes other than tax. If Owner requests verification of Direct Costs
claimed by Contractor for reimbursement or for any Work performed or provided on a Time and
Materials Basis or the Target Price, Owner (or an independent accounting professional hired by
Owner that is subject to the approval of the Contractor) may examine and audit Contractor’s
records and books related to those costs. Such audit will cover whether specified Equipment and
Services were in fact provided, were charged to the proper category of expenses and did not exceed
the rates or amounts permitted hereunder for such matters. In addition the audit will permit Owner
or Owner’s independent accounting professional to verify that costs and charges have been properly
invoiced in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. Notwithstanding anything in the Agreement
to the contrary, Owner shall not be entitled to access information that would enable Owner to
determine [***]. In addition Owner shall not be entitled to audit or to information pertaining to
[***]. If any audit reveals charges to or paid by Owner as charges or fees (including any
Contractor Taxes reimbursed by Owner) which are or were incorrectly

Page 134

 

charged, then the affected
Party shall be entitled upon demand to corrective reimbursement of such amounts. Notwithstanding
anything in this Section to the contrary, Owner shall not be restricted from any audit rights
provided that a mutually acceptable third party accounting professional (having executed a
reasonable confidentiality agreement acceptable to both Parties) conducts such audit that it is
required to have in order to comply with applicable Laws, including the regulations of the NRC.
Audits shall take place at times and locations mutually agreed upon by both Parties. Contractor
shall make the materials to be audited available within fifteen (15) Business Days or as soon as
reasonably practicable, of such third party’s reasonable request for them. Costs incurred in
undertaking the audit will be borne by Owner but costs incurred by Contractor as a result of
Owner’s exercising its right to audit will be borne by Contractor. Except for reports which
account for FERC requirements, Owner shall be entitled only to a statement from such third party
that the audit was satisfactory or what adjustments to payments are required.

     25.6 Sales Tax Records. 
Contractor shall reasonably cooperate with Owner in connection with (a) the reporting of any
property, excise, and Sales Taxes payable with respect to the Work and (b) any assessment, demand
or inquiry of Government Authority, refund claim or proceeding relating to property, excise, or
Sales Taxes potentially payable with respect to the Work. Contractor shall require its first tier
Subcontractors provide to Contractor information and documentation Contractor may reasonably
request for purposes of complying with this Article and otherwise reasonably cooperate with Owner.
Contractor shall retain, and shall require its first tier Subcontractors to retain, copies of such
documentation that supports the information provided by Contractor pursuant to Section
26.3(c), including but not limited to invoices together with backup detail, until the later of
[***] after Final Completion or the expiration of the limitations period for assessment of Tax, as
extended by any agreements with the Government Authority or by the operation of any statutory
tolling provisions. However, in the event of an audit of or assertion of Tax against Owner which is
not resolved prior to the expiration of the [***] period specified herein, Contractor’s obligations
in the preceding sentence with respect to retention of records after [***] shall be conditioned on
Owner’s notification of Contractor of such audit or assertion of Tax prior to the expiration of
such period. Records retained by Contractor shall include documentation supporting the date of
delivery to the Site and Nearby Work Areas of all Equipment, materials, and supplies for
incorporation into the Work. Owner will request that the State of Florida incorporate in its
Management Compliance Agreement that any audit necessary will commence promptly upon Final
Completion.

     Contractor shall require that its contracts with its first tier Subcontractors effectuate the
provisions of this Section so that documentation supporting the information provided pursuant to
Section 26.3(c) is available for Tax audit or other Tax-related purposes. Contractor’s
obligations under this Section 25.6 shall survive the termination, cancellation or
expiration of this Agreement for any reason.

ARTICLE 26 — TAXES

     26.1 Employment Taxes. Contractor shall be responsible for payroll or employment
compensation taxes, Social Security taxes, or for labor-related withholding taxes for Contractor
and its Subcontractors or any of their employees and Contractor and its Subcontractors shall
withhold from each employee’s pay sufficient funds for federal, state, and local income taxes,

Page 135

 

funds required by the Federal Insurance Contributions Act, and as may otherwise be required by
applicable law (“Employment Taxes”). Nothing herein shall alter any right of Contractor to
reimbursement for taxes or other amounts pursuant to other provisions of this Agreement.

     26.2 Sales Taxes on Contractor Tools and Other Property. Contractor shall pay the Sales
Taxes on Contractor’s purchases of materials, tools, equipment, supplies and other consumables
which are not permanently incorporated into the Facility and which remain the property of
Contractor. Contractor shall also pay the Sales Taxes attributable to Contractor’s Construction
Equipment, temporary buildings and other property used by Contractor in its performance of this
Agreement. Contractor’s responsibility hereunder includes Taxes attributable to its purchases and
use of property that it will retain after Final Completion
and also Taxes attributable to its purchases of property that, at Contractor’s election and not at
the direction of Owner, Contractor will abandon or demolish. [***]. With respect to property
described in this Section 26.2, Contractor will endeavor to reasonably obtain and will
require its Subcontractors to reasonably obtain any exemptions from Taxes, including but not
limited to exemptions from Taxes on motor fuel and diesel fuel, so that Taxes are not unnecessarily
embedded in the Contract Price.

     26.3 Sales Tax on Items Incorporated into the Facility. 

          (a) Owner has obtained a Direct Pay Permit from the Florida Department of Revenue (hereafter
“Department”), together with additional documentation (such Permit and additional
documentation are hereafter referred to collectively as “Direct Pay Documentation”),
establishing that Owner will be directly responsible to the Department for all Sales Taxes which
may be due with respect to Equipment, other property, and Services to be delivered and furnished
to Owner under this Agreement, including but not limited to Sales Taxes on materials incorporated
into permanent buildings and into other permanent real property improvements. Owner has provided
to Contractor copies of such Direct Pay Documentation, which is attached hereto as Exhibit
V. Pursuant to the Direct Pay Documentation, Contractor will not charge Owner any Sales Tax
with respect to any such Equipment, other property, or Services, and will cause the Direct Pay
Documentation to be distributed to all Subcontractors. In addition, with respect to property
acquired from sources outside of Florida, Contractor will issue and cause its Subcontractors to
issue proper resale certificates and other exemption documentation, it being the intent of this
paragraph to ensure that Contractor and Subcontractors do not charge or pay Sales Tax with respect
to any sale or purchase of such Equipment, property or Services. [***].

          (b) Contractor will consult with Owner regarding the implementation of the Direct Pay
Documentation, which authorizes Contractor and Subcontractors to rely thereon in lieu of charging
or paying Sales Taxes or requiring or providing resale certificates or other exemption
documentation for Florida tax purposes with respect to their sales or purchases of property to be
incorporated into the Facility.

          (c) (i) Contractor shall provide Owner with estimates of the total contract price for each
category of the Work, in the level of detail set forth on one or more schedules developed in
consultation between Owner and the Florida Department of Revenue. In addition, for each item
identified on such schedule as taxable or partially taxable, Contractor will provide the following
information (or such other information as Owner reasonably prescribes by written

Page 136

 

instruction to
Contractor) in order to comply with the Florida Department of Revenue requirements: For an item of
Equipment installed in the Facility, Contractor’s estimate of the installed cost to be charged to
Owner; for an improvement to real property that is included in the [***], the estimated [***]
attributable to the improvement; and for any other improvement to real property, the estimated
cost of materials to be incorporated into the improvement. No amount that is included for an item
of the schedule will be included in the amount entered for any other item. The estimates required
hereunder and the allocation methodologies (e.g., commodity or indirect allocations) used to
derive them will be set forth in one or more affidavits of Contractor employees, and Contractor
will make such employees available to explain such estimates to the Department of Revenue upon
Owner’s request. Such estimates will be subdivided by the year such charges are expected to be
incurred and will be on an
accrual basis. After the aforementioned schedule is finalized and provided to Contractor,
Contractor will determine an approximate number of man-hours required to provide such estimates
and shall endeavor to issue a Change request pursuant to Section 9.1(b) within ten (10)
Days but in no event later than twenty (20) Days following receipt of such information from Owner,
and Owner will issue a Change Order no later than ten (10) Days following receipt of such Change,
to reimburse Contractor on a Time and Material Basis.  Provided that the Owner provides to
Contractor an enumeration of the information required hereunder and a Time and Material Change
Order to develop the estimates (such Change Order will be amended once Contractor provides such
man-hour information to Owner) by October 1, 2008:  (x) Contractor will provide Owner with
preliminary estimates and other information as required by the Owner to meet the State of Florida
requirements for the 2009 calendar year by January 15, 2009; and (y) the estimates covering the
duration of the Work and other information as required by the Owner hereunder will be provided to
Owner no later than June 1, 2009.   If Owner does not provide such enumeration by October 1, 2008,
the time for Contractor to provide the information required hereunder will be extended by the same
number of Days that such enumeration was delayed.

     (ii) On or before March 1 of each year until Final Completion, Contractor will
provide Owner with an update of the aforementioned estimates by year, taking into
account actual experience and any changes in the estimates provided pursuant to
subparagraph (i) and when they have been or will be charged to Owner. Within ninety
(90) Days after Final Completion, Contractor will provide Owner with a final update
containing the same information for actual amounts. Updates will be certified by
affidavit upon request of Owner or the Department of Revenue. Contractor will then
determine the number of man hours required to calculate a true-up of the estimated
costs to the actual costs and issue a subsequent Change Order to Owner to reimburse
Contractor on a Time and Material Basis.

     (iii) In the event of changes in the Work or other changes that necessitate
additions, deletions, or other modifications to the list of items for which
information is required under Section 26.3(c)(i), Owner will notify
Contractor and Contractor will provide information which conforms to such
requirements.

Page 137

 

     (iv) If requested by Owner in connection with any required reporting of Tax,
any Tax audit, or any other inquiry by a taxing authority, Contractor will make
available and will cause its first tier Subcontractors to make available to Owner or
the Department of Revenue information and documentation supporting the line item
amounts required herein.

     (v) Owner will use the information provided by Contractor pursuant to this
Section 26.3 only for tax purposes.

     26.4 Property Taxes. 
Contractor and Owner agree that Owner shall be responsible for the filing requirements and payment
obligations for all ad valorem taxes on real and tangible personal property owned by Owner at the
Site and Nearby Work Areas and on the Equipment incorporated (and to be incorporated) into the
Facility, provided that Contractor, subject to Section 26.2, shall be responsible for the
filing of property tax returns and the payment of ad valorem taxes on Equipment not yet delivered
to the Site or Nearby Work Areas, and on Construction Equipment, temporary structures, tools and
material which are not incorporated into the Facility and which are owned, used or leased by
Contractor to perform the Work.

     26.5 Tax Indemnification.

          (a) Except in cases where the imposition of any such Tax is the result of the negligence or
willful misconduct by Contractor, Owner shall defend, reimburse, indemnify and hold Contractor
harmless for any Sales Taxes or property taxes (including any interest and penalties) incurred by
Contractor as a result of an assessment or other demand of a Government Authority and which are
finally determined to be due with respect to any material, Equipment, or any other property or
Services to be provided to Owner by Contractor under this Agreement. This indemnity includes any
reasonable legal expenses and other costs incurred by Contractor as a result of Owner’s failure to
pay such taxes or a decision by Owner to contest an assessment or other demand by a Government
Authority, whether or not such contest is successful, provided that it is the intent of the
Parties that Owner will control any such contest and it will not be necessary for Contractor to
incur legal, accounting and other expense. Owner’s indemnifications set forth in this Section
26.5 are conditioned on Contractor’s compliance with this Section 26.5 and
Sections 25.6, 26.3, 26.4, and 26.6 with respect to any Taxes subject to such
indemnifications. Owner’s indemnity of Contractor hereunder does not include Taxes (including any
interest and penalties) which may be due or asserted by Government Authority against Contractor or
any Subcontractor with respect to any of Contractor’s or a Subcontractor’s materials, tools,
equipment, supplies, and other consumables that are not permanently incorporated into the
Facility, and does not include any costs that Contractor may incur in connection with such Taxes.
For purposes of this Section, compliance with Owner’s Direct Pay Documentation or other written
directions pursuant to Section 26.3 shall not be deemed negligence or willful misconduct.

          (b) Except in cases where the imposition of a Tax not covered by paragraph (a) is the result
of the negligence or willful misconduct by Owner, Contractor shall defend, reimburse, indemnify
and hold Owner harmless for any Taxes (including any interest and penalties) incurred by Owner as
a result of an assessment or other demand of a Government Authority which are finally determined
to be due with respect to Contractor’s Construction

Page 138

 

Equipment, tools and materials that are not
incorporated into the Facility, any payroll or Employment Taxes, or any other similar Taxes. This
indemnity includes any reasonable legal expenses and other costs incurred by Owner as a result of
Contractor’s failure to withhold or pay such Taxes or a decision by Contractor to contest an
assessment or other demand by a Government Authority, whether or not such contest is successful,
provided that it is the intent of the Parties that Contractor will control any such contest and it
will not be necessary for Owner to incur significant legal expense. Contractor shall not be
responsible for any costs incurred by Owner necessary to substantiate or verify information for
any Tax audit or investigation conducted by any Government Authority in the normal course of
business.
Nothing in this Section 26.5(b) shall alter any right of Contractor to reimbursement
for Taxes or other amounts pursuant to other provisions of this Agreement.

          (c) With respect to any Taxes for which either Party has indemnified the other under this
Section 26.5, the indemnified Party (“Indemnitee”) will furnish the other Party
(“Indemnitor”) with Notice of any Tax audit or other demand for information within
forty-five (45) Days following issuance of a notification of intent to audit or other such demand
by a Government Authority that specifies transactions related to the Work or a period of inquiry
that includes, in whole or in part, the period during which Contractor acquired or delivered
property or services comprising the Work. With respect to any audit or other inquiry regarding any
such Tax for which either Party has indemnified the other Party hereunder, the Indemnitee will
cooperate with the Indemnitor so that the Indemnitor can protect its interests with respect to any
potential assertion of Tax, interest, or penalty. The Indemnitee will permit the Indemnitor to
participate with the Indemnitee and the Government Authority in discussions relating to audit
methodology at such level within the Government Authority as the Indemnitor deems appropriate. In
addition, the Indemnitee will promptly furnish the Indemnitor with copies of any documents
provided to the Government Authority relating to such Tax, and will obtain advance written
approval from the Indemnitor prior to furnishing any response to the Government Authority
regarding the treatment of any property or transaction for purposes of any such Tax. The
Indemnitor will cooperate reasonably with the Indemnitee in the formulation of any such response
to a Government Authority. In addition, and also with respect to Taxes that are the subject of
indemnification, the Indemnitee will provide the Indemnitor with timely Notice of any assessment
of property tax or other assertion of Tax by a Government Authority, will allow the Indemnitor to
control the selection and pursuit of any remedies or the negotiation of a settlement, and will
cooperate with the Indemnitor in the evaluation and pursuit of any remedies or settlement. For
purposes of this Section 26.5 “timely Notice” means Notice that affords the Indemnitor
reasonable time to evaluate the issues and pursue a remedy before the remedy is barred.
“Cooperate” as used in this Section includes, without limitation, allowing the Indemnitor to
proceed in the Indemnitee’s name in order to establish standing, and, notwithstanding any
limitations elsewhere in this Agreement, providing any records and other information that the
Indemnitor reasonably requires to evaluate its position and pursue the remedies of its choosing.
In addition, the Parties agree to cooperate with each other in taking such measures as will avoid
or mitigate any Taxes. “Remedy” as used herein includes without limitation any protest, petition,
suit, defense, or other legal objection to the assessment or assertion of Tax, and includes
payment of the Tax and seeking refund thereof. For purposes of this Section, the words “finally
determined” mean a determination that is no longer subject to a legal remedy. Contractor will
maintain the capability to segregate invoices related to this Agreement from invoices related to
other projects of Contractor. If any audit, assessment or

Page 139

 

demand by a Government Authority
involves a Tax for which a Party is indemnifying the other Party hereunder and also a Tax which is
not within the scope of such indemnity, the Indemnitee will control the audit and its response to
any assessment or demand and its pursuit of any remedies with respect to the Tax which is not
within the scope of this indemnity, provided that the parties will cooperate with each other
reasonably with respect to such audit, assessment, or demand and in the pursuit of their
respective remedies. Owner will use information provided by Contractor hereunder only for Tax
purposes.

          (d) Notwithstanding Section 8.3 and with respect to a Tax that is subject to
indemnification hereunder, until the Tax is finally determined to be due, payment thereof by the
Indemnitor shall not be required and Article 27 shall not apply with respect to the
dispute or any Claim resulting from such dispute; provided, however, that in the event a lien is
recorded against the property of an Indemnitee for failure to pay a Tax for which the Indemnitee
is indemnified hereunder, the Indemnitor will pay such Tax upon demand of the Indemnitee
notwithstanding that the Tax has not been finally determined to be due. If the Tax subject to
indemnity is finally determined not to be due, the Indemnitee will refund such amount to the
Indemnitor within thirty (30) Days after such final determination. Any indemnity payments that are
required pursuant to the terms of this Section shall be paid within thirty (30) Days of receipt of
the invoice from the Indemnitee for such amounts, provided that nothing herein shall be deemed to
authorize a Party to invoice the other for any Tax, interest, or penalty that is assessed or
demanded by Government Authority prior to the time such amount is finally determined to be due.

     26.6 Pollution Control Equipment and Other Qualifying Exempt Equipment Information.
Contractor shall supply Owner with reasonable information requested by Owner for qualifying
steam, air, water or noise pollution control and other Equipment for exemption from Sales Taxes,
property taxes and any other tax credits, refunds or exemptions available to Owner. Contractor
agrees to reasonably assist Owner in identifying qualifying pollution control Equipment and will
provide an electronic list of Owner’s retirement units that links and cross-references the
Equipment to any pollution control permits covering the construction of the Facility. Any
information provided to support such request shall be provided by Contractor to Owner on a Time and
Materials Basis. Contractor shall maintain these records for the same time period specified in
Section 25.6.

ARTICLE 27 — DISPUTE RESOLUTION

     27.1 Claims. A “Claim” is any written demand by either Party (including any
counterclaim, except as otherwise provided herein) seeking relief as a matter of right under or
arising out of the transaction described in the Agreement, including but not limited to contract
claims, tort claims that arise out of facts which could be used to plead either a tort or a
contract claim, disputes over Change Orders or Force Majeure issues and claims for money or claims
for extension of time. The procedures specified in this Article shall be the sole and exclusive
procedures for the resolution of Claims; provided, however, that, notwithstanding
anything in this Article to the contrary, a Party may file a complaint in the court described in
Section 34.1 to seek injunctive relief, sequestration, garnishment, attachment, or an
appointment of a receiver, and a Party may pursue its rights against third party insurers
independently. However, despite seeking such equitable remedies or actions against insurers, the
Parties will continue to

Page 140

 

participate in good faith in, and be bound by, the dispute resolution
procedures specified in this Article. Matters that do not fall within the definition of a Claim as
set forth herein shall be resolved only by mutual agreement or by litigation, or by using an
alternative dispute resolution process that is acceptable to both Parties. If there is a dispute
concerning whether a matter is the appropriate subject of a
Claim (as defined above), or whether the matter meets or does not meet the Threshold, or whether a
matter should be resolved by litigation or otherwise, it shall be presented to the DRB for
resolution. The decision of the DRB as to whether a matter is the appropriate subject matter of a
Claim and/or meets or does not meet the Threshold shall be final and binding upon the Parties under
the United States Arbitration Act 9 U.S.C. §§ 1 et seq., and shall not be subject to review or
appeal.

     27.2 Condition Precedent. Completion of the Dispute Resolution process concerning a Claim
or expiration of the applicable time periods as described in this Article 27 is a condition
precedent to the commencement of litigation in accordance with the provisions of Section
27.12. Applicable time limits and statutes of limitation shall be tolled during the Dispute
Resolution process set forth in this Article 27, commencing on the date the Claim Notice
(defined below) is received by the other Party, and ending on the date that the Dispute Resolution
Board (“DRB”) issues its Award as provided in Section 27.7(d).

     27.3 Continuation of Obligations. At all times during the Dispute Resolution process or
any subsequent litigation, neither Party shall use the fact that there is a dispute or litigation
to justify non-performance or non-continuation of their respective obligations. However, to the
extent a Party has the right to suspend performance or take other action under the terms of the
Agreement (whether because of the counterparties contractual breach or otherwise), such right shall
not be in any way be limited or curtailed by the existence of an ongoing dispute or litigation.

     27.4 Appointment of Dispute Resolution Board. A DRB having three members (each a
“Member”) shall be appointed by the Parties as hereinafter provided.

          (a) On or before the earlier of (i) the date one (1) year after the Effective Date and (ii)
the date thirty (30) Days after a Claim has been delivered by one Party to the other Party, Owner
and Contractor shall each designate in writing to the other as nominees to the DRB one (1)
individual meeting the qualifications set forth in Sections 27.5(a) and 27.5(c).
Owner and the Contractor shall submit complete disclosure statements for their nominees along with
their written nomination. The disclosure statement shall include: (i) a complete resume of
background and experience; (ii) a detailed description of all past, present, and planned future
relationship(s) with the Owner or its Affiliates, or with Contractor Interests; (iii) a
certification signed by the nominee stating that he or she meets the qualifications and
requirements set forth in Section 27.5(c); and (iv) any other matter or interest that may
in any way affect the nominee’s ability to be impartial.

          (b) Within fourteen (14) Days after receipt of the other Party’s designation of nominee and
disclosure statement, Owner and Contractor shall each either approve or reject the other Party’s
nominee. Approval of the other Party’s nominee shall not be unreasonably withheld. In the event
that a nominee is rejected, the nominating Party shall submit another nomination to the other
Party within fourteen (14) Days from the rejection, and the process

Page 141

 

shall be repeated until two mutually acceptable DRB Members are named and accepted by both
Parties. The two selected individuals shall constitute the first two Members of the DRB, and each
of them shall be promptly notified of their selection in a single written document signed by
Owner’s Project Director and Contractor’s Project Director.

          (c) Within thirty (30) Days after the first two (2) Members of the DRB are notified of their
selection, the first two DRB Members shall designate in writing to the Parties a nominee to serve
as a third DRB Member, who meets the qualifications set forth in Sections 27.5(b) and
27.5(c). The first two (2) Members of the DRB shall submit a complete disclosure statement
from the nominee along with their written nomination. The statement shall include: (i) a
complete resume of background and experience; (ii) a detailed description of all past, present,
and planned future relationship(s) with the first two DRB Members, the Owner or its Affiliates,
and Contractor Interests; (iii) any other matter or interest that may in any way affect the
ability of the nominee to be impartial; and (iv) a certification signed by the nominee stating
that he or she meets the qualifications and requirements set forth in Section 27.5(c).
The person nominated by the first two DRB Members shall be subject to approval by both Parties,
such approval or rejection to be supplied in writing within fourteen (14) Days from receipt of the
written nomination and disclosure statement. Approval by each Party shall not be unreasonably
withheld. In the event that the third proposed DRB Member is rejected by either Party, the first
two (2) DRB Members shall submit another nomination to the Parties within fourteen (14) Days from
the rejection, and the process shall be repeated until the third Member of the DRB is selected and
approved by both Parties. The third DRB Member selected under this Section 27.4(c) shall
serve as Chairperson of the DRB (the “Chairperson”).

          (d) It is specifically agreed and understood that each Party may have ex parte communications
with the DRB Member it nominated for the sole purpose of discussing potential nominees for the
position of DRB Chairperson.

          (e) As soon as practical following the selection and approval of all three (3) DRB Members,
Owner and Contractor shall enter into separate written agreements with each DRB Member
substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit X concerning the terms and conditions
of their engagement as a DRB Member. Such written agreements shall include the following
provisions: Each DRB Member shall be compensated solely on an hourly basis, plus actual expenses.
Each DRB Member shall be required to comply with the terms and conditions of this Agreement, and
shall be required to refrain from any employment by either Party during the term of this Agreement
and for [***] thereafter. Each DRB Member shall be required to invoice Owner and Contractor
separately for [***]of their fees and expenses, and Owner and Contractor shall have separate and
independent liability to each DRB Member for [***] of each DRB Member’s fees and expenses.

          (f) Each agreement with each DRB Member shall have an initial term of twelve (12) months,
with all three (3) agreements to expire on the same date. No later than forty-five (45) Days
prior to the expiration of each DRB Member agreement, either the Owner or Contractor may elect in
writing not to renew the terms of any one or more of the DRB Members (including the Chairperson).
If one or more DRB Members’ term is not renewed by either Party, the other Party shall have seven
(7) Days after receipt of the notifying Party’s
notice of non-renewal of any DRB Member in which to elect not to renew either or both of the
remaining DRB Member’s term(s).

Page 142

 

          (g) Each non-renewed DRB Member shall be replaced in the same manner as he or she was
initially selected; provided, however, that if three or more nominated persons are rejected by the
other Party, either Party may ask CPR to appoint the replacement DRB Member. CPR may not nominate
someone who was previously nominated and rejected by either Party. The appointment of replacement
Members shall begin promptly and the Parties shall endeavor to appoint replacement Members prior
to the expiration of the non-renewed Member’s term. The replacement Member’s agreement shall have
the same term as the other two Members. Notwithstanding the forgoing, any DRB Member whose term
has not been renewed shall, in cooperation with the pre-existing DRB Members, complete
consideration of any Claims that were pending before the DRB at the time the non-renewal election
was made, unless objected to by either Party in their notice of non-renewal. If either Party
objects to further consideration of pending Claims in their notice of non-renewal of a Member, the
newly constituted DRB shall consider the pending Claims de novo after appointment of the
new Member.

          (h) If an election not to renew is not timely made by either Party as provided above, each
DRB Member’s term shall automatically be renewed for an additional twelve (12) months.
Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, a DRB Member’s agreement may be terminated
by mutual agreement of the Parties by delivering a joint notice to the affected DRB Member, and
the replacement member shall be appointed in the same manner as the terminated Member was
appointed. In the event that a DRB Member resigns, becomes unable to perform his or her duties,
or develops a conflict of interest that cannot be remedied and therefore must be replaced prior to
expiration of his or her twelve month term, the replacement Member shall be appointed in the same
manner as the replaced Member; provided, however, that if three or more nominated persons are
rejected by the other Party, either Party may ask CPR to appoint the replacement DRB Member. CPR
may not nominate anyone who was previously nominated and rejected by either Party. The
replacement DRB Member shall serve out the remaining term of the DRB Member that he or she
replaces. The process for appointment of any replacement DRB Member shall begin promptly upon
determination of the need for a replacement, and the Parties shall endeavor to complete the
replacement within thirty (30) Days.

          (i) The agreement with each DRB Member shall finally expire upon the later of (i) payment by
Owner to Contractor of the Final Payment Invoice as provided in Section 8.2 of this
Agreement, or (ii) resolution of any Claims outstanding at the time such payment is made.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the agreements with each DRB Member
shall remain effective, and this Article 27 shall remain effective, until all pending
Claims (including any Claims associated with termination of this Agreement) are resolved.

     27.5 DRB Member Qualifications. 

          (a) The two initial DRB Members selected by Owner and Contractor shall have at least ten (10)
years of direct and substantial experience in engineering and/or construction fields, either in
the nuclear power industry or other major, complex construction projects. Their experience must
include the interpretation of contract documents, and the

Page 143

 

analysis and resolution of contract claims. Persons who have primary professional
qualifications in fields other than construction or engineering shall not be eligible for
nomination by the Parties.

          (b) The Chairperson shall be a licensed attorney with at least fifteen (15) years legal
experience in the nuclear power industry, or in connection with other major, complex construction
projects, including the interpretation of contract documents, and the analysis and resolution of
contract claims.

          (c) It being imperative that all three DRB Members be neutral, act impartially, and be free
from any conflict of interest, no person shall be eligible to serve as a Member of the DRB absent
a certification that he or she:

     (i) agrees to serve as a DRB Member in accordance with the provisions of
Article 27 of this Agreement;

     (ii) has no interest financial or otherwise in either Owner or its Affiliates
or the Contractor Interests, nor any financial interest in this Agreement, except
for payment of its fees and expenses as provided herein;

     (iii) has not have been previously employed as a consultant or otherwise by
either Party, unless any such relationship has been disclosed in writing and
approved by the Parties;

     (iv) has disclosed in writing to the Parties, before being selected, any
professional or personal relationships with any director, officer or employee of
either Owner or its Affiliates or the Contractor Interests;

     (v) agrees for the duration of the existence of the DRB and for two (2) years
thereafter, not to be employed as a consultant or otherwise by the Owner or its
Affiliates or by the Contractor Interests, except as may be agreed in writing by the
Parties;

     (vi) agrees not to give advice to either Party or its Personnel concerning the
conduct of this Agreement, other than in accordance with this Agreement;

     (vii) agrees not to have any ex-parte communications with either Party at any
time after selection as a member of the DRB (except as provided in Sections
27.4(d) and 27.6(b));

     (viii) agrees not to enter into discussions or make any agreement with either
Party regarding employment by any of them, whether as a consultant or otherwise,
during the term of this Agreement and for at least one (1) year after ceasing to act
as a DRB member;

     (ix) agrees to use best efforts to ensure his or her availability for all site
visits and hearings as are necessary;

Page 144

 

     (x) agrees to become conversant with this Agreement and with the progress of
the Work by studying all documents received, which shall be maintained in a current
working file;

     (xi) agrees to treat the details of this Agreement and all DRB activities and
hearings as private and confidential, and not publish or disclose them without the
prior written consent of the Parties; and

     (xii) shall not have served, shall not be serving, and shall agree not to serve
during the term of this Agreement, on a DRB, an arbitration panel, as a mediator, or
in any other dispute resolution capacity on any other AP1000 construction project
without the prior written consent of both Parties.

     27.6 Ongoing Duties of the DRB. During the term of this Agreement, and until the DRB
Member agreements expire or are terminated, the DRB Members shall be responsible for the following
ongoing duties:

          (a) The DRB Members shall keep abreast of the progress of the Work by reviewing written
progress reports to be supplied to Owner and each DRB Member by Contractor’s Project Director as
provided in Section 3.5(h)(i) of this Agreement. Should Owner believe that Contractor has
misstated or misrepresented any facts or circumstances in its written progress reports, Owner may
supply a written response or clarification to each DRB Member, provided that a copy of such
response or clarification shall be provided to Contractor’s Project Director. Owner’s failure to
supply a response or clarification shall not be deemed to be an admission as to the correctness of
any matter stated in the progress report, and shall not be considered as a waiver of any right or
defense by Owner.

          (b) Unless otherwise agreed by Owner and Contractor, the DRB shall visit the Site and Nearby
Work Areas at intervals of not less than once every one hundred eighty (180) Days following the
commencement of on-site construction. The timing of and agenda for each site visit shall be
determined by the Chairperson after consultation with Owner and Contractor. The purpose of the
regular site visit is for the DRB Members to become and remain acquainted with the progress of the
Work, and of any actual or potential problems or Claims. The scope of the tasks and the amount of
time to be spent by the DRB Members in becoming and/or remaining acquainted with the progress of
the Work (not including time spent on actual disputes or Claims), shall be as specified by
Contractor and Owner, but the amount of time shall not exceed thirty (30) Days per calendar year,
unless Contractor and Owner have mutually agreed in writing to a greater time period. Site visits
shall be attended by representatives of both Owner and Contractor. The site visits will be
coordinated by Owner, Contractor and the Chairperson. Owner shall arrange for appropriate
conference facilities, telephone and copying services. Ex parte contact of any nature with any
Member is strictly prohibited, except as initiated by the Chairperson to schedule each site visit
and to establish the agenda for each site visit.

          (c) Owner and Contractor shall furnish to the Chairperson, who shall then furnish to each DRB
Member a copy of this Agreement, any amendments to this Agreement,
updated Project Schedules, and any other project documents that the Chairperson may

Page 145

 

reasonably request. All oral communications between the DRB Members and Owner or Contractor shall
be made only when authorized representatives of both Parties are present (except as provided in
Sections 27.4(d) and 27.6(b)). All written communications by the DRB Members to
either Owner or Contractor shall be sent through the Chairperson, and shall be concurrently copied
to the other DRB Members and the other Party. All written communications from either Owner or
Contractor to any DRB Member shall be sent through the Chairperson, and shall be concurrently
copied to the other DRB Members and the other Party. Owner and Contractor shall not, and shall
not permit their respective Personnel to request advice from or consult with any Member of the DRB
regarding this Agreement, the Work, or any other subject other than in the normal course of the
DRB’s official activities under this Agreement, or as mutually agreed by the Parties.

     27.7 Claims Process. In order to invoke the process described in this Article 27,
the Party asserting the Claim shall submit written notice of the Claim to the other Party’s Project
Director (the “Claim Notice”). The Claim Notice shall include a reasonable written
description of the matter in dispute, including dollar amounts, number of Days for any requested
schedule extensions, or other specific relief that is the subject of the Claim, the factual and
legal basis for the Claim, and a reference to any controlling or relevant Sections of this
Agreement. The Claim Notice shall also include any relevant calculations and documents as
necessary for the other Party to understand and evaluate the Claim. Beginning with receipt by the
other Party of the Claim Notice, the dispute process will proceed as provided below:

          (a) Resolution by Negotiation. As an express condition precedent to the commencement
of any further proceedings, the Parties agree to exercise diligent, good faith efforts to resolve
the Claim. Once a Claim Notice is issued by either Party and received by the other Party, the
following process shall be followed in an effort to amicably resolve the Claim:

     (i) Contractor’s Project Director and Owner’s Project Director shall meet
within ten (10) Days from receipt of the Claim Notice. It shall be the
responsibility of the claimant Party promptly to initiate and schedule this meeting.
The Parties agree to share all non-privileged documentation that is relevant to
settling the Claim, and may mutually agree to additional meetings as necessary for
each Party fully to understand the Claim.

     (ii) If, after the Contractor’s Project Director and Owner’s Project Director
meet (including any mutually agreed to additional meetings), the Claim remains
unresolved, or if no such initial meeting takes place within such ten (10) Day
period, then (A) either Party may at any time thereafter submit the Claim to the DRB
in accordance with Section 27.7(c) and (B) an executive vice president (or
equivalent) of each Party (which in the case of Contractor, may be such person from
either or both Consortium Members) shall meet within ten (10) Days to attempt to
resolve the Claim. It shall be the responsibility of the claimant Party promptly to
initiate and schedule this meeting. Each executive vice president (or equivalent)
may ask his or her Project Director or other support staff to attend this
meeting as needed to fully present, respond to, and understand the Claim. The
Parties may mutually agree to additional meetings as necessary for each Party fully
to understand the Claim. If the Claim is submitted to the DRB before the

Page 146

 

executive
vice presidents of each Party have completed their discussions under Section
27.7 (a)(ii), the Parties intend for the above described ten (10) Day executive
vice president negotiation period to run concurrently with the first ten (10) Days
of the fourteen (14) Day response period described in Section 27.7(c)(ii).

     (iii) Settlement of any Claim during the process described in this Section
27.7(a) shall be memorialized by issuance of a Change Order, an amendment to the
Agreement, or a separate written settlement agreement signed by the Parties.
Nothing herein shall prohibit the Parties from entering into an interim written
agreement with regard to a Claim concerning payment of monies, adjustment of the
Project Schedule or otherwise, pending final resolution of the Claim as hereinafter
provided. Any such interim agreement shall be without prejudice to the rights of
either Party.

          (b) Optional Mediation. The Parties may mutually agree in writing to endeavor to
resolve a Claim by non-binding mediation. In such case, the Parties shall select a mediator by
mutual agreement, or failing mutual agreement, shall use a mediator appointed by CPR. Unless
otherwise agreed, the mediation shall be completed within sixty (60) Days from the Day on which
the Parties agree in writing to mediate. If the mediation does not resolve the Claim within said
sixty (60) Day period, either Party may submit the Claim to the DRB in accordance with Section
27.7(c). The mediation shall be held at the Site, unless another location is mutually agreed
upon in the mediation agreement. Settlement of any Claim during any mediation shall be
memorialized by issuance of a Change Order, an amendment to the Agreement, or a separate written
settlement agreement signed by the Parties. Nothing herein shall prohibit the Parties from
entering into an interim written agreement with regard to a Claim concerning payment of monies,
adjustment of the Project Schedule or otherwise, pending final resolution of the Claim as
hereinafter provided. Any such interim agreement is presumed to be without prejudice to the
rights of either Party.

          (c) DRB Review Process. Any Claim that is not resolved as provided in Section
27.7(a)(i) or 27.7(b) may be submitted by either Party to the Chairperson of the DRB
for consideration by the DRB as hereinafter provided. The matter will then be considered by the
DRB as hereinafter provided.

     (i) Three copies of the original Claim Notice and any additional supplemental
information and documents that the claimant Party wishes to provide (the
“Updated Claim Notice”) shall be supplied to the DRB Chairperson, with a
copy of the Updated Claim Notice to be simultaneously supplied to the other Party’s
Project Director. The DRB Chairperson will then date stamp and distribute copies of
the Updated Claim Notice to the other DRB members by next day delivery.

     (ii) Within fourteen (14) Days after receipt of the Updated Claim Notice, the
responding Party shall submit to the DRB Chairperson three copies of its response to
the Claim and any counterclaims (each of which must meet the definition of a Claim)
it wishes the DRB to consider, with a copy of the response

Page 147

 

and any counterclaims
(including all accompanying correspondence and documents) to be simultaneously
supplied to the other Party’s Project Director. Upon written request from the
responding Party, the Chairperson may grant the responding Party a reasonable
extension of time to prepare its response. A copy of any correspondence concerning
an extension of time shall be promptly sent to the claimant Party. The DRB
Chairperson will then date stamp and distribute copies of the response and any
counterclaims to the other DRB members by next day delivery.

     (iii) Within fourteen (14) Days from receipt of a counterclaim (if any), the
original claimant shall submit three copies of a detailed response to the
counterclaim to the DRB Chairperson. A copy of the response shall be simultaneously
supplied to the other Party’s Project Director. The DRB Chairperson will then date
stamp and distribute copies of the response to the other DRB members by next day
delivery. Upon written request from the original claimant, the Chairperson may
grant the original claimant a reasonable extension of time to prepare its response.
A copy of any correspondence concerning an extension of time shall be simultaneously
sent to both Parties if sent by the DRB and simultaneously sent to the other Party
and the DRB if sent by either Party.

     (iv) Within five (5) Days from the Chairperson’s receipt of the response to the
Updated Claim Notice, or (if applicable) the original claimant Party’s response to
any counterclaim, the DRB Chairperson shall set a date for an initial hearing. The
initial hearing shall be set by the DRB Chairperson to begin within fourteen (14)
Days from the Day that the hearing date is selected, subject to extension for good
cause, as determined by the DRB Chairperson. Once the hearing date is selected, the
Chairperson shall give Notice of the hearing date to both Parties. The hearings
shall be conducted in accordance with the provisions of Section 27.8.

          (d) DRB Award.

     (i) After the hearing on a Claim and any counterclaims is concluded, the DRB
shall meet to decide the Claim and any counterclaims and write its Award. All DRB
deliberations shall be conducted in private and shall be confidential. The DRB
shall make a concerted effort to reach a unanimous decision; provided however, that
if a unanimous decision cannot be reached within the time limits prescribed herein,
a decision shall be reached by majority vote. The DRB shall base each Award on the
facts and evidence as presented by the Parties, the terms and conditions of the
Agreement, and established principles of applicable Law. Each Award that includes a
payment obligation by either Party shall state when such payment obligation was
originally due and that interest is due from such original due date at a rate equal
to the [***].

     (ii) The DRB shall endeavor to reduce its Award to writing within seven (7)
Days after the hearings are concluded, and shall promptly submit its Award to the
Owner’s Project Director and the Contractor’s Project Director at

Page 148

 

approximately the
same time, either by hand delivery or overnight courier. The Chairperson shall be
responsible to maintain documentation that establishes the date of delivery of the
written Award to each Party. The Parties expressly agree that the DRB shall not
award either Party damages or allow credit for any damages that are barred by this
Agreement.

     (iii) If the Award is binding (as hereinafter provided), or if Parties
otherwise accept the findings and recommendations of the DRB, or should the Parties
otherwise settle the Claim and any counterclaims as a result of the Award, then the
Award, or acceptance or settlement shall be memorialized by issuance of a Change
Order, an amendment to the Agreement, or a separate written settlement agreement
signed by the Parties.

     (iv) For Claims and counterclaims that do not meet the Threshold, the related
Award (regardless of the amount of such Award and regardless of the number of Days
by which the Project Schedule is adjusted), shall be final and binding upon the
Parties under the Unites States Arbitration Act 9 U.S.C. §§ 1 et seq., and judgment
thereon may be entered in the court described in Section 34.1, and such
Award shall not be subject to review or appeal.

     (v) For Claims and counterclaims that meet the Threshold: (A) the related
Award (regardless of the amount of such Award and regardless of the number of Days
by which the Project Schedule is adjusted), with regard to both the Claim and any
counterclaims, shall not be binding on either Party and shall not be subject to any
judicial process for enforcement, modification or review, except as provided in
Section 27.12, and (B) either Party may commence litigation in accordance
with the provisions of Section 27.12 of this Agreement.

     27.8 DRB Hearing Rules and Procedures. DRB hearings shall be conducted in accordance with
the following rules and procedures.

          (a) To the extent practicable, DRB hearings shall be conducted at the Site or at Owner’s
facilities in the vicinity of the Site. Unless otherwise mutually agreed in writing by the
Parties, the entire DRB shall participate in the resolution of the Claim. The DRB shall at all
times be neutral, and shall act fairly and impartially as between Owner and Contractor.

          (b) The DRB shall establish appropriate rules and procedures for conducting hearings,
consistent with the terms of this Article 27. The DRB hearing rules and procedures shall
be designed and implemented to make the hearings informal, efficient, and expeditious. The DRB
shall provide the DRB’s rules and procedures to Owner and Contractor for comment within thirty
(30) Days after the Chairperson is appointed. Owner and Contractor shall provide any comments on
the proposed rules and procedures within thirty (30) Days from receipt. The DRB shall give due
consideration to the comments of Owner and Contractor, and shall then
issue final rules and procedures to Owner and Contractor no later than ninety (90) Days after
the Chairperson is appointed.

Page 149

 

          (c) The DRB shall have the authority to consolidate Claims and counterclaims for
consideration if the Claims and/or counterclaims arise out of the same circumstances or involve
similar factual or legal issues. The DRB also shall have the authority to bifurcate a Claim or
counterclaim into a determination first as to merit and, second, if appropriate, a determination
as to quantum. The amount of each Claim or counterclaim, as consolidated or bifurcated by the
DRB, shall be used to determine the amount of each Claim or counterclaim for purposes of
Section 27.7(d).

          (d) The DRB may require the Parties to exchange documents relating to the Claim in advance of
any hearing, and to produce documents or witnesses at any hearing. In no event shall either Party
be requested or required to produce any privileged documents. A Party’s failure to comply with
the DRB’s rules and procedures and other requirements may be considered by the DRB in making its
Award.

          (e) The DRB shall have the authority to conduct its hearings and reach its decision in the
manner it deems most appropriate. The Chairperson shall be responsible for directing the course
of the hearings. The DRB shall not be bound by the judicial rules of evidence. However, it shall
give due consideration to the source and credibility of any evidence that is presented.

          (f) Each Party shall make an initial presentation of its Claim, counterclaim or defense, and
one or more rebuttals to any assertion by another Party, until the DRB determines that all aspects
of the Claim have been covered adequately, and the Claim, counterclaim and each defense are fully
understood. The DRB may limit the presentation of documents or oral statements when it deems them
to be irrelevant or redundant. It is expected that the Chairperson will control the hearings and
that the Members will guide the discussion of issues by asking frequent questions of the Parties
in order to obtain expeditiously all information that the DRB deems necessary to make its Award.
The Chairperson may permit questioning of one Party by another Party if he or she determines it
would facilitate the presentation or clarification of an issue that is relevant to the Claim.

          (g) Each Party shall be represented in all DRB hearings by (a) its Project Director, and (b)
one or more of its officers, employees or contractors who has actual, direct knowledge of or
involvement in the Work that is the subject matter of the Claim.

          (h) Each Party may also be represented by legal counsel and/or independent experts. However,
the Chairperson shall have the authority to exclude legal counsel or independent experts at
hearings upon a determination that doing so will facilitate the presentation and understanding of
the Claim. Unless the Chairperson expressly permits it, counsel may not (i) examine directly or
by cross-examination any witness, (ii) object to questions or factual statements during the
hearings, or (iii) make or argue legal motions. Counsel for both Parties may, upon request of the
Chair, address legal issues that may arise. Counsel and independent experts shall not make
statements of fact for or on behalf of a Party or witness and shall at all times comply with the
instructions of the Chairperson concerning the
orderly and expeditious handling of the DRB hearings. All other attendees at the DRB
hearings shall be by permission of the Chairperson after hearing the objections of the Parties.

Page 150

 

          (i) The Chairperson shall be responsible for maintaining the records of the DRB including
Claim Notices, documentary submissions, minutes of hearings, records of who was present at each
hearing, and the DRB’s Awards.

     27.9 Admissibility of DRB Award. None of the submittals of the Parties, the DRB’s records,
nor any non-binding Award shall be admissible in any arbitration, or any administrative or judicial
proceedings subsequent to the Claim resolution process set forth in this Article 27.
Neither Party shall attempt to introduce any such matters or materials into evidence in any
subsequent administrative or judicial proceedings. Any binding Award shall be fully admissible in
any administrative or judicial proceedings that may be brought to enforce such Award, or in
response to any action brought by the other Party concerning such Claim or counterclaim. Should
either Party breach this Section 27.9, the other Party shall be entitled to recover any
attorney fees and other costs spent in responding to and excluding such matters and materials from
being introduced and accepted as evidence.

     27.10 Payment of Costs. The Parties shall each pay their own costs incurred under this
Article 27, except as otherwise provided in Section 27.9. All fees and expenses of
any mediator, CPR, and of the DRB shall be shared equally by the Parties.

     27.11 Review and Modification. At any time either Party may give Notice to the other Party
that it is not satisfied with the DRB process as set forth in this Article 27. The Project
Directors for each Party shall enter into discussions as soon as practical in an effort to revise
the process as necessary to insure equitable treatment of both Parties. Any revisions to the DRB
process shall be incorporated into this Agreement by written amendment, and the DRB Members shall
be notified of such revisions. Any changes to the DRB process or membership shall be promptly and
jointly communicated to the DRB Members. The Parties may also consider other alternative dispute
resolution processes that might be substituted for the DRB process. If the Parties are unable to
agree on how the DRB process should be changed, and should they not agree to implement another
alternative dispute resolution process, then the provisions of this Article 27 shall
continue to apply without change.

     27.12 Unresolved Claims. 

          (a) Should either Party not accept any non-binding Award, it shall give the other Party
Notice that it intends to take further action as hereinafter provided. If such Notice is not
given within thirty (30) Days from the date of receipt of the Award, then the Award shall become
final, binding and enforceable under the Unites States Arbitration Act 9 U.S.C. §§ 1 et seq., and
judgment thereon may be entered in the court described in Section 34.1, and such Award
shall not be subject to review or appeal. Regardless of whether either Party objects to any
Award, such Award shall be treated as binding until a final, non-appealable judgment to the
contrary has been rendered by the applicable court, and any payments specified due by the DRB
shall be paid within five (5) Business Days of the DRB’s Award. (e.g. If the DRB finds that a
specified payment amount is due to Contractor and a specified change to the Project Schedule is
appropriate, then such payment is due five (5) Business Days after receipt of such Award and the
Project Schedule is immediately adjusted and shall be binding until such time as the DRB’s Award
is overturned by a final non-appealable judgment.)

Page 151

 

          (b) Upon Notice by either Party to the other as provided in Section 27.12(a), such
Party may commence litigation concerning the Claim or counterclaim. Any such litigation must be
commenced within one (1) year from receipt of the Award. If litigation is not commenced by filing
a complaint and issuing a summons within one (1) year, the Award shall become final, binding and
enforceable. In the event that litigation is initiated within the time limits set forth above,
the other Party shall have the right to litigate any counterclaim, or if the complaint that is
filed is based on a counterclaim, the other Party shall have the right to litigate the Claim.

ARTICLE 29 — ASSIGNMENT

     Neither Party shall assign this Agreement in whole or in part without the prior written
consent of the other Party, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed.
Assignment for purposes of this Article 29 includes a merger, consolidation or similar
transaction by either Party that results in the sale or transfer of all or substantially all of its
stock or assets to a third party. If any assignment by any Party of this Agreement of any right,
interest or obligation therein requires the consent of, or notice to, any Government Authority,
including the NRC, then such Party shall not effect such assignment without such consent of, or
notice to, such Government Authority. Notwithstanding the forgoing, Owner may assign this
Agreement in whole or in part, to a purchaser of the Facility or the Site in connection with sale
(in whole or in part), merger, acquisition or consolidation provided the purchaser or entity
resulting from the merger, acquisition or consolidation is a Qualified Replacement Owner, and Owner
may grant a collateral security interest in the Facility and/or this Agreement to a Qualified
Lender in connection with obtaining financing for the Facility without Contractor’s consent
provided Owner has given Contractor at least thirty (30) Days Notice of such proposed sale, merger,
acquisition, consolidation or grant of a security interest.

ARTICLE 30 — WAIVER

     The provisions of Article 1, Article 2, Section 5.11(b), Section
5.14 (Safeguards Information), Article 10, Article 15 (including any other
indemnity obligations set forth in this Agreement), Article 17, Article 19,
Article 22, and Articles 25 through 37 shall survive the termination or
cancellation of this Agreement; provided, that if this Agreement is terminated prior to Substantial
Completion of the first Unit for any reason other than for Contractor’s breach, then Sections
19.2 and 19.7 shall not survive such termination. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event
of termination of the Agreement other than for Contractor’s breach, Owner may retain any Quality
Assurance documentation that Contractor supplied to Owner in connection with associated Equipment,
and Owner may convey such Quality Assurance documentation to any purchasers of the associated
Equipment, provided that the recipient of any such Quality Assurance documentation agrees in

Contractor’s Scope of Work that continues on the Site or Nearby Work Areas [***], (d) the other
provisions, terms and / or conditions of this Agreement that limit the liability of one or more of
the Parties, and (e) any provisions that are expressly stated to survive termination or
cancellation. All other provisions and obligations under this Agreement shall not survive
termination or cancellation of this Agreement; provided, however, that to the extent applicable
statutes, regulations or other law requires that a particular provision of this Agreement survive
or not survive the termination or cancellation of this Agreement, then the DRB or the applicable
court shall apply such statute, regulation or law and determine whether such provision does in fact
survive the termination or cancellation of this Agreement.

temporarily for repair or permanently for disposal, Owner shall obtain written assurances from the
transferee of limitation of and protection against liability following the proposed removal or
transfer at least equivalent to that afforded Contractor and Contractor Interests under the
provisions of this Agreement. Removal or transfer contrary to the provisions of this Article shall
without waiving any legal or equitable rights of Contractor, make Owner the indemnitor of
Contractor and Contractor Interests against any liabilities incurred by Contractor and
Contractor Interests in excess of those that would have been incurred had no such transfer taken
place.

ARTICLE 34 — GOVERNING LAW; WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL; COMPLIANCE WITH
SPECIFIED LAWS

     34.1 Governing Law. The validity, construction, and performance of this Agreement shall be
governed by and interpreted in accordance with the laws of the State of North Carolina, without
giving effect to the principles thereof relating to conflicts of laws. Any litigation between
Contractor (or either Consortium Member) and Owner may be commenced in Federal or State Courts in
the State of North Carolina having jurisdiction over the subject matter. Each Party hereby
consents to being subject to the personal jurisdiction of such Courts.

     34.2 Waiver of Jury Trial. EACH PARTY HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY
IN ANY ACTION, PROCEEDING OR COUNTERCLAIM (WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT OR OTHERWISE) ARISING
OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT.

     34.3 Compliance with Specified Laws. 

          (a) Contractor and its Subcontractors shall observe and abide by applicable Laws in
connection with the Work. Without limiting the foregoing, Contractor agrees to comply with
applicable provisions of the Americans with Disabilities Act, Fair Labor Standards Act of 1938,
Executive Order No. 11246, the Rehabilitation Act of 1973, the Vietnam Veterans Readjustment Act
of 1974, as amended, and their respective implementing regulations, which are made a part hereof
as if set out herein. Contractor warrants that it will meet the legal requirements of the
Immigration Reform and Control Act of 1986, including, but not limited to, verifying workers’
eligibility for U.S. employment through the completion of an I-9 form.

          (b) Contractor assumes exclusive liability for all contributions, taxes or payments required
to be made under the applicable federal and state Unemployment Compensation Act, Social Security
Acts and all amendments, and by all other current or future acts, federal or state, requiring
payment by the Contractor on account of the person hired, employed or paid by Contractor for Work
performed under this Agreement.

          (c) It is the intent of Owner to have all Specifications for the Work comply with all
applicable Laws. If Contractor discovers any discrepancy or conflict between the Specifications
and applicable legal requirements, Contractor shall promptly report the discrepancy in writing to
Owner’s Project Director.

          (d) Contractor shall comply with the applicable requirements of the state where the Facility
is located to regulate the practice of general, mechanical, and electrical contracting. Also,
notwithstanding any of the choice of law provision in this Agreement, the mechanics or other lien
laws of the state where the Facility is located shall apply.

          (e) Federal Subcontracting Requirements:

     (i) The provisions of the following Laws, Executive Orders, and any rules and
regulations issued thereunder, are incorporated herein by reference as part of this
Agreement:

	 	•	 	Provisions of the Utilization of Small Business Concerns
clause set forth at Section 52.219-8 of the Federal Acquisition
Regulations, Title 48 of the Code of Federal Regulations, and

Page 155

 

	 	•	 	Provisions of the Small Business Subcontracting Plan clause
set forth at Section 52.219-9 of the Federal Acquisition
Regulations, Title 48 of the Code of Federal Regulations.

     (ii) Contractor agrees to use commercially reasonable efforts to comply with
such provisions and any amendments thereof. In addition, all eligible Subcontracts
that Contractor enters into to accomplish the Work under the terms of this Agreement
shall obligate such Subcontractors to use commercially reasonable efforts to comply
with such provisions.

     (iii) Compliance with the above provisions involve the development of a
subcontracting plan, as prescribed in 19.704 of the Federal Acquisition Regulations,
herein incorporated by reference. Westinghouse shall not be required to prepare a
project specific Subcontracting Plan (as defined in FAR 52.219-9) for this
Agreement. Westinghouse shall use its company-wide Subcontracting Plan, as approved
by the appropriate US Government Authority. Stone & Webster shall prepare a project
specific Supplier Diversity Subcontracting Plan incorporating SBA small business
size standards requirements. Stone & Webster’s Subcontracting Plan shall be limited
to a statement of the total dollars available for subcontracting under the plan, a
description of the principal types of supplies and services to be subcontracted for
under the plan and an outline of the efforts to be taken to award work to small
business concerns, veteran-owned small business concerns, service-disabled
veteran-owned small business concerns, HUBZone small business concerns, small
disadvantaged business concerns, or women-owned small business concerns. Contractor
shall, upon a prior written request by Owner, provide a written report to Owner that
sets forth the total dollar amount paid to any Subcontractor in the categories
listed above. Stone & Webster will report such information to Owner, substantially
in the format and on the frequency required by Owner as defined in Exhibit
DD or a copy of the annual report which details such information that Shaw
submits to the U.S. Government. Westinghouse will provide to Owner a copy of
Westinghouse’s annual report which details such information that Westinghouse
submits to the US government. Such reporting will not be on a contract by contract
basis, but will encompass overall Contractor procurements for the appropriate
timeframe.

ARTICLE 35 — RELATIONSHIP OF OWNER AND CONTRACTOR

     Contractor is an independent contractor and nothing contained herein shall be construed as
creating (a) any relationship between Owner and Contractor other than that of owner and independent
contractor, (b) any contractual or employment relationship, or any other relationship whatsoever
between Owner and Contractor’s employees or Subcontractors or (c) a fiduciary relationship between
Contractor and Owner. Neither Contractor, nor any of its employees, are or shall be deemed to be
employees of Owner.

Page 156

 

ARTICLE 36 — NO THIRD PARTY BENEFICIARIES

     Except as expressly set forth in this Agreement, the provisions of this Agreement are binding
upon, and are intended for the sole benefit of Owner and Contractor (including each of its two
Consortium Members) and their respective successors and permitted assigns, and the Parties do not
intend to create any other third party beneficiaries or otherwise create privity of contract with
any other Person.

ARTICLE 37 — MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS

     37.1 Liability Protection. The limitations of liability, waivers, indemnities, extension
of insurances and other liability protection provided herein for the benefit of Contractor shall
also apply for the benefit of Contractor Interests. The limitations of liability, waivers,

of Owner shall also apply for the benefit of Owner’s Affiliates and any Site co-owners.

     37.2  [***]. [***].

     37.3 Severability. If any provision of this Agreement or the application of this Agreement
to any Person or circumstance shall to any extent be held invalid or unenforceable by the DRB or a
court of competent jurisdiction, then (i) the remainder of this Agreement and the application of
that provision to Persons or circumstances other than those as to which it is specifically held
invalid or unenforceable shall not be affected, and every remaining provision of this Agreement
shall be valid and binding to the fullest extent permitted by Laws, and (ii) a suitable and
equitable provision shall be substituted for such invalid or unenforceable provision in order to
carry out, so far as may be valid and enforceable, the intent and purpose of such invalid or
unenforceable provision.

     37.4 Entire Agreement. This Agreement, including Exhibits A through EE, which are
hereby incorporated by reference, contains the entire agreement and understanding between the
Parties as to the subject matter of this Agreement, and merges and supersedes all prior agreements,
commitments, representations,
writings and discussions between them. Neither of the Parties will be bound by any prior
obligations, conditions, warranties, or representations with respect to the subject matter of this
Agreement.

     37.5 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts, each of
which shall be deemed an original, but all of which together shall constitute one and the same
instrument.

     37.6 Public Communication. Contractor and Owner agree to cooperate in maintaining good
community relations. With the exceptions of publicly available generic information and information
not specifically identifiable to the Site or Nearby Work Areas, Contractor shall not make any
announcement, give any photographs, or release any information concerning all or any portion of the
Work, this Agreement, or the Facility, to any media source, community group, the press or other
public communication outlet, without Owner’s prior written consent (other than in an emergency or
to a Government Authority as provided in Section 19.1(d), provided that Contractor may
include the Facility or the Work (but not the details of this Agreement) in its regular experience
lists.

Page 157

 

     37.7 Facility Co-Owners. Prior to or concurrently with any sale or transfer by Owner of an
ownership interest in the Facility or a Unit to any Person (other than a sale or transfer that also
requires an assignment of Owner’s interest in this Agreement in accordance with Article
29), Owner shall cause such Person to execute and deliver to Contractor an agreement in the
form attached as Exhibit EE. A sale or transfer contrary to the provisions of this Section
shall without waiving any legal or equitable rights of Contractor, make Owner the indemnitor of
Contractor and Contractor Interests against any liabilities incurred by Contractor and Contractor
Interests in excess of those that would have been incurred had no such sale or transfer taken
place. Promptly following Contractor’s receipt of an executed agreement in the form attached as
Exhibit EE hereto, Contractor shall countersign such agreement and return a copy thereof.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Owner desires to transfer or assign any interest in this
Agreement, such a transfer or assignment shall only be valid if it complies with the provisions set
forth in Article 29.

OR IMPLIED WARRANTY OF ANY KIND RELATED TO ANY AND ALL IMPROVEMENTS, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION,
THE IMPLIED WARRANTY OF FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE OR MERCHANTABILITY OR NON-INFRINGEMENT.

4. Intellectual Property Indemnity.

     (a) Westinghouse will, at its own cost and expense, defend (or at its option subject to
Section 4(b), settle) and shall indemnify and hold Progress or any Qualified Entity
harmless from and against any and all claims, demands, costs, suits, actions, proceedings, fines
and penalties (and interest thereon) brought against Progress or any Qualified Entity to the extent
based solely on an allegation that the Facility Documentation or any of the Intellectual Property
Rights therein, or any part thereof furnished hereunder, or the use thereof in a manner
contemplated by
this License Agreement, constitutes an infringement, violation, or arises from or involves the
misappropriation of, any patent, trademark, copyright, trade secret or other property right or
intellectual property right, or any other similar intellectual property protection, if Westinghouse
is notified promptly in writing and given authority, information, and assistance for the defense of
any such suit or proceeding. Westinghouse will indemnify and save Progress or any Qualified Entity
harmless from all damages, liabilities, losses, fees (including, without limitation, reasonable
attorney fees), costs, and expenses incurred by Progress or any Qualified Entity in connection with
any such claim, suit, action or proceeding, or awarded in any such suit, action, or proceeding.
Westinghouse will not be responsible for any settlement of such suit, action, or proceeding made
without its prior written consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably conditioned, delayed or
withheld. If the use of the Facility Documentation or any of

-4-

 

the Intellectual Property Rights
therein or any part thereof furnished hereunder, as a result of any such suit, action, or
proceeding is held to constitute infringement or misappropriation and its use by Progress or any
Qualified Entity is in any manner enjoined or restrained, Westinghouse will, at its option and at
its own cost and expense, either: (i) procure for Progress or any Qualified Entity the right to
continue using said Facility Documentation and the Intellectual Property Rights therein or part
thereof, as contemplated under this License Agreement; (ii) replace same with substantially
equivalent noninfringing Facility Documentation and the Intellectual Property Rights therein; or
(iii) modify same so it becomes non-infringing while remaining substantially equivalent features
and functionalities.

     (b) Neither Party shall compromise or settle any claim, action, suit or proceeding in which
the other Party is named without the other Party’s prior written consent, which consent shall not
be unreasonably conditioned, delayed or withheld, unless such settlement provides for the payment
of money only by the settling Party and provides for a full, complete and unconditional release of
the other Party and, if appropriate, each Qualified Entity.

     (c) Westinghouse will have no indemnity duty or obligation hereunder to the extent that a
claim of infringement relates to a specific item of Facility Documentation and (i) such specific
item of the Facility Documentation furnished hereunder is supplied pursuant to a design or drawing
prepared by Progress or any Qualified Entity, (ii) such specific item of Facility Documentation is
modified by Progress or any Qualified Entity, or (iii) such specific item of the Facility
Documentation is combined by Progress or any Qualified Entity with items not furnished hereunder or
recommended, approved, or authorized in writing by Westinghouse. In the event such a suit or
proceeding is brought against Westinghouse as a result of such Progress or Qualified Entity
actions, Progress will indemnify and save Westinghouse harmless to the same extent as Westinghouse
has agreed to indemnify and save Progress or any Qualified Entity harmless hereunder as provided in
Section 4(a); provided that Progress will not be responsible for any settlement of any such
suit or proceeding made without Progress’ prior written consent, which consent shall not be
unreasonably conditioned, delayed or withheld.

     (d) Progress hereby agrees to defend (or at its option subject to Section 4(b),
settle) and indemnify Westinghouse and its Subcontractors from and against any and all third party
(“third party” not to include any Subcontractor, Westinghouse or other third party to whose
Facility Documentation and Intellectual Property Rights therein Progress is granted a license and
right under Section 2(a)) claims, demands, costs, suits, actions, proceedings, fines and
penalties
(and interest thereon) brought against Westinghouse or its Subcontractors to the extent based
solely on an allegation that (i) any Improvement as used by Progress or any Qualified Entity, or
(ii) any use by Progress or any Qualified Entity of the Facility Documentation in a manner not
contemplated by this License Agreement, results in an infringement, or claim of infringement, of
any patent, trademark, copyright or other third party intellectual property right, or any other
similar intellectual property protection in the United States, if Progress is notified promptly in
writing and given authority, information, and assistance for the defense of any such suit or
proceeding.

     (e) The Parties understand and agree that the Extraordinary Deposit Materials are provided by
Westinghouse “AS IS” to Progress and that Westinghouse makes no representations or warranties,
express or implied, as to the quality, accuracy or completeness of the Extraordinary Deposit
Materials under this License Agreement. Westinghouse has no liability or responsibility whatsoever
with respect to the use of, the consequences of the use of, results obtained by use of, or reliance
upon the Extraordinary Deposit Materials. WESTINGHOUSE SPECIFICALLY DISCLAIMS AND ALL PARTIES
AGREE THAT ALL WARRANTIES, INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION ANY WARRANTIES OF FITNESS FOR PARTICULAR
PURPOSE AND MERCHANTABILITY, TO THE WESTINGHOUSE EXTRAORDINARY DEPOSIT MATERIALS ARE HEREBY FULLY
DISCLAIMED AS ALLOWED BY LAW.

     (f) Progress hereby agrees to defend (or at its option subject to Section 4(b),
settle) and indemnify Westinghouse and its Subcontractors from and against any and all third party
claims, demands, costs, suits, actions, proceedings, fines and penalties (and interest thereon)
brought against Westinghouse or its Subcontractors to the extent based on an allegation that use of
the Extraordinary Deposit Materials, with or without modification, by Progress or any Qualified
Entity, results in an infringement, or claim of infringement, of any patent, trademark, copyright
or other third party intellectual property right, or any other similar intellectual property
protection in the United States, if Progress is notified promptly in writing and given authority,
information, and assistance for the defense of any such suit or proceeding.

THIS IS AN EXCLUSIVE STATEMENT RELATING TO FACILITY DOCUMENTATION AND THE INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY
RIGHTS THEREIN AND IMPROVEMENTS RIGHTS PURSUANT TO THIS LICENSE AGREEMENT AND ALL THE REMEDIES OF
THE PARTIES RELATING THERETO.

Facility Documentation and Intellectual Property Rights therein shall remain exclusively with
Westinghouse or it Subcontractors or licensors.

Agreement and Article 19 of the Agreement, the provisions of this License Agreement shall
control.

Agreement or its rights hereunder or to delegate or subcontract its obligations hereunder without
the express written consent of the other Party hereto; provided, however, that Progress shall have

AP1000 Nuclear Power Plant Codes and Standards Introduction

Capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined herein have the meanings assigned to such
terms in the Agreement to which this Exhibit N is appended.

This document provides a non-exhaustive listing of industry codes and standards that are applicable
to the AP1000 Nuclear Power Plant design (the “Industry Codes and Standards”). The codes and
standards that are applicable to the AP1000 design are the codes and standards that were in place
prior to the submittal of the AP1000 Design Certification Document (DCD), Revision 15, as approved
by the NRC in NUREG1773. These are the same codes and standards that are listed in Revision 17 of
the DCD along with changes/additions approved through the Westinghouse design change process.

The attached Table 1 listing of the Industry Codes and Standards is derived from the AP1000
document APP-GW-G1X-001 Rev. 2 “Governing AP1000 Codes and Standards” and the AP1000 Design
Certification Document This list therefore is a listing of codes and standards that the AP1000
Nuclear Power Plant design is committed to by the licensing process. The revision or date of each
code and standard is also included in the attached table. For codes and standards that were
provided in the DCD without revision or date, the revision or date in effect, March 2002 (submittal
date of the AP1000 Nuclear Power Plant design to NRC) was used. The revisions reflect the DCD
licensing commitment. Changes to the standard or revision may require a licensing submittal by
Owner. Contractor will notify Owner of any proposed changes to the listing of Industry Codes and
Standards to ensure that they are reflected in future licensing submittals.

Except as provided below, regarding ASME application, the edition and addenda of the ASME code
applied in the design and manufacture of each component is the edition and addenda established by
the requirements of the DCD. The use of editions and addenda issued subsequent to the DCD is
permitted, however any change to ASME code edition will require NRC approval. In the event the DCD
does not specify the edition and addenda of the code applicable to an activity required under the
Agreement, the activity will be performed in compliance with the code edition and addenda required
under 10 CFR 50.55a in effect at the time of the activity. The baseline used for the evaluations
done to support this Design Control Document and the DCD is the 1998 Edition, 2000 Addenda, except
as follows:

The 1989 Edition, 1989 Addenda is used for Articles NB-3200 (Design by Analysis), NB-3600, NC-3600,
and ND-3600 (Piping Design) in lieu of later editions and addenda.

When later editions and addenda of ASME Code are used, Contractor shall perform ASME Code
reconciliation per the applicable ASME Code section for all code related aspects of design,
procurement and construction.

Guidance for ASME code year and addenda to use in mechanical equipment and valve specifications:

CASE 1: ASME Section III Safety Related Equipment in Support of the Design Certification 

If the principal construction code for the equipment is ASME Section III as defined in
Table 3.2-3 of the DCD, then the year and addenda shall be in accordance with paragraphs
5.2.1.1 and 6.1.1 of the DCD (i.e., 1998 year with 2000 addenda), except for piping design
as follows:

“The 1989 Edition, 1989 Addenda is used for Articles NB-3200 (Design by Analysis), NB-3600,
NC-3600, and ND-3600 (Piping Design) in lieu of later editions and addenda for piping
design.”

Any other ASME BP&V Code Sections listed within the equipment specification for this
equipment (e.g., II, V, IX, and XI) shall have the same 1998 year and 2000 addenda.

In addition to AP1000 Nuclear Power Plant codes A, B, and C, the above applies to code D
(non-safety equipment being built to ASME Section III as the principal construction code
defined in Table 3.2-3 of the DCD).

CASE 2: Non-ASME Section III Equipment (Non-Safety Related Equipment)

If the equipment principal construction code is ASME but NOT Section III as defined in
Table 3.2-3 in the DCD (e.g., ASME Section VIII for pressure tanks/vessels), then the ASME
2001 year and 2003 addenda shall be used, unless otherwise specified in the DCD. ASME
Section III will NOT be included in the specifications and standards list in the equipment
specification.

If any other ASME Sections are listed within the equipment specification (e.g., ASME
Section IX for welding requirements), then the 2001 year with 2003 addenda shall be used
for them as well.

The attached table, Table 1, only lists industry codes and standards. Regulatory standards
(Regulatory Guides, NUREGs, etc.) are not included in the attachment; these standards are
referenced in the DCD.

Table 2 identifies industry codes and standards that are not included in the Licensing Basis but
are pertinent to the Facility. Since they are not included as part of the Licensing Basis,
revisions may be used as determined by Contractor in its sole discretion.

or collectively, depending on which party originally supplied the information, referred to as
“CONTRACTOR”) and information of OWNER, relating to AP1000 systems, components or structures
considered to be proprietary and treated as secret and confidential, RECIPIENT enters into this
“Agreement” and accepts and receives such proprietary information (hereinafter referred to as
“Information”) in confidence and trust, subject to the following terms and conditions:

1. OWNER discloses such Information to RECIPIENT solely for the purpose of supporting the OWNER in
the operation, maintenance, modification or licensing of the AP1000 nuclear power plant at OWNER’S
plant site in Levy County, Florida to which the Information applies. The parties acknowledge that
some or all of the Information may be originally supplied by Westinghouse Electric Company, LLC or
Stone & Webster, Inc., or both of them. Any waivers or approvals required of CONTRACTOR under this
Agreement shall be obtained from the party or parties that originally supplied the Information.

2. RECIPIENT shall maintain as secret and confidential all such Information so imparted.

3. RECIPIENT shall not use such Information for any purpose except as permitted by OWNER in
accordance with paragraph 1 above.

4. RECIPIENT shall not transmit or further disclose such Information to any third party, including
parent organizations of RECIPIENT, sister organizations of RECIPIENT, subsidiaries of RECIPIENT,
consultants of RECIPIENT or subcontractors of RECIPIENT, without first obtaining the prior written
approval of OWNER and CONTRACTOR, such approval not to be unreasonably withheld. In the event
OWNER and CONTRACTOR approves of such disclosure or transmittal, such third party shall execute an
appropriate non-disclosure, licensing or similar agreement either with or as agreed to by OWNER.

5. In the event that the RECIPIENT or any of its representatives are requested or required in any
proceeding or by any governmental authority to disclose any of the Information, the RECIPIENT shall
provide the OWNER and CONTRACTOR with prompt written notice of such request or requirement so that
the OWNER and/or CONTRACTOR may seek a protective order or other appropriate remedy and/or waive

Page 1 of 4

 

 

compliance with the provisions of this Agreement. If, in the absence of a protective order or
other remedy or the receipt of a waiver from the OWNER and CONTRACTOR, the RECIPIENT or any of its
representatives are nonetheless, in the opinion of their counsel, legally compelled to disclose
Information, it or its representatives may, without liability hereunder, disclose only that portion
of the Information which such counsel advises the RECIPIENT is legally required to be disclosed,
provided that the RECIPIENT exercises all reasonable efforts to preserve the confidentiality of the
Information, including, without limitation, by cooperating with the OWNER and CONTRACTOR to obtain
an appropriate protective order or other reliable assurance that confidential treatment will be
accorded the Information.

6. Except where necessary for the purpose set forth in paragraph 1 hereof, RECIPIENT shall not make
any copy or in any way reproduce or excerpt such Information except as authorized by OWNER in
writing prior to such reproduction or excerption. Any such copies or excerpts shall include the
same proprietary notice that appeared on the Information that was supplied to RECIPIENT under this
Agreement. Upon the written request of OWNER, the Information provided hereunder and any such
copies or excerpts thereof shall be returned to OWNER, or, at the sole option and request of OWNER,
RECIPIENT shall destroy such information and any such copies and/or excerpts and certify in writing
to OWNER that such Information has in fact been destroyed, except to the extent that retention of a
copy of any Information is necessary in order to comply with any law, rule or regulation, or any
requirement of any court or governmental agency.

7. Nothing herein shall apply to any information which is:

	 	a)	 	now generally known or readily available to the trade or public or which
becomes so known or readily available without fault of RECIPIENT;
	 
	 	b)	 	rightfully possessed by RECIPIENT without restriction prior to its disclosure
hereunder by OWNER;
	 
	 	c)	 	acquired from a third party without restriction, provided that RECIPIENT does
not know, or have reason to know, or is not informed subsequent to disclosure by such
third party and prior to disclosure by RECIPIENT that such information was acquired
under an obligation of confidentiality; or
	 
	 	d)	 	independently developed without reference to the Information.

8. It is mutually understood that nothing herein shall be construed as granting or implying any
right under any letters patent, or to use any Information claimed therein, or as permitting
RECIPIENT to unfairly obtain the right to use Information which becomes publicly known through an
improper act or omission on its part.

9. Except as provided under the Engineering, Procurement and Construction Agreement between OWNER
and CONTRACTOR (the “EPC Contract”), OWNER and CONTRACTOR make no warranty or representation
whatsoever as to the sufficiency or accuracy of the Information provided hereunder, the ability of
RECIPIENT to use the Information for its intended purpose, or as to the result to be obtained
therefrom.

Page 2 of 4

 

 

10. Except as provided under the EPC Contract, neither OWNER, CONTRACTOR nor their suppliers or
subcontractors of any tier shall be liable with respect to or resulting from the use (or the
results of such use), or misuse of any Information furnished hereunder. RECIPIENT shall be
exclusively responsible and liable and shall indemnify and hold harmless OWNER and CONTRACTOR and
their suppliers and subcontractors of any tier with respect to or resulting from any misuse of any
Information furnished hereunder.

11. Nothing in this Agreement shall obligate OWNER or CONTRACTOR to provide any specific
information that it otherwise desires to withhold.

12. RECIPIENT shall not, at any time, without the prior written approval of OWNER and CONTRACTOR,
file, cause or authorize the filing of any patent application in any country that includes
Information or would require the disclosure of Information supplied hereunder.

13. In addition to RECIPIENT’s obligations under Section 4 of this Agreement, RECIPIENT agrees not
disclose any Information, or any product of such Information, directly or indirectly, without the
prior written permission of OWNER and CONTRACTOR, to any of the countries designated in the United
States Government regulations as issued from time to time relating to the exportation of technical
data, including any computer programs, without first insuring that specific authorization or an
export license from the appropriate government agency has been obtained. RECIPIENT agrees to fully
comply with all regulations with regard to the Information transmitted hereunder.

14. RECIPIENT shall not assign this Agreement without OWNER’s and CONTRACTOR’s prior written
consent.

15. This Agreement shall be governed in accordance with the laws of the State of North Carolina,
without application of its conflict of law rules. The parties agree to the exclusive jurisdiction
of the United States District Court for the Eastern District of North Carolina or the North
Carolina state courts in the City of Raleigh for any legal proceedings that may be brought by a
party arising out of or in connection with this Agreement or for recognition or enforcement of any
judgment. By execution and delivery of this Agreement, each party accepts, generally and
unconditionally, the jurisdiction of the aforesaid court for legal proceedings arising out of or in
connection with this Agreement. Each party hereby waives any right to stay or dismiss any action or
proceeding under or in connection with this Agreement brought before the foregoing court on the
basis of forum non-conveniens or improper venue.

16. Westinghouse Electric Company, LLC and Stone & Webster, Inc. are intended beneficiaries of this
Agreement, and shall be considered as third party beneficiaries to the extent that any Information
is originally supplied by either or both of them to OWNER, and to the extent that any Information
is supplied by either or both of them directly to RECIPIENT under the terms and conditions of this
Agreement. This Agreement shall be

Page 3 of 4

 

 

binding upon RECIPIENT and its successors and shall benefit and be enforceable by OWNER,
Westinghouse Electric Company, LLC and Stone & Webster, Inc. and each of their respective
successors and assigns.

17. This Agreement shall be effective for a period commencing on the date this Agreement is
executed by the parties and ending two (2) years after the RECIPIENT returns all Information of the
OWNER to the extent required by Section 6 of this Agreement, except that RECIPIENT’s obligation of
confidentiality with respect to the Information shall survive the expiration of this Agreement.

18. If any of the terms of this Agreement are violated by RECIPIENT, OWNER shall be entitled to an
injunction to be issued by any court of competent jurisdiction, enjoining and restraining the
RECIPIENT, as well as damages and any costs of collection, including but not limited to attorneys’
and other professionals’ fees and related charges and interest.

19. If any provision of this Agreement is held invalid in any respect, it shall not affect the
validity of any other provision of this Agreement. If any provision of this Agreement is held to
be unreasonable as to the time, scope or otherwise, it shall be construed by limiting and reducing
it so as to be enforceable under then applicable law.

20. This Agreement constitutes the entire, sole and exclusive agreement of the parties concerning
each party’s obligations of confidentiality with respect to the Information of the other party. No
modification of this Agreement or waiver of any of its terms will be effective unless set forth in
a writing signed by the party against whom it is sought to be enforced.

EXHIBIT Q

Equipment with Owner Witness and Hold Points

Following the selection of a specific Subcontractor for each of the components identified in this
Exhibit Q, Contractor shall identify the associated witness points and hold points via
inclusion of these in the respective manufacturing and fabrication plans for these components.

Contractor will require such Subcontractors to provide a Level 2 schedule to Contractor within
ninety (90) Days of PO placement. Contractor shall invoke the standard AP1000 QA requirements
(APP-GW-GAH-030) as part of the procurement process. APP-GW-GAH-030 requires the suppliers to
provide their quality plans ninety (90) Days after order placement or sixty (60) Days prior to
manufacturing activities, whichever is earlier. For the equipment listed in Exhibit CC, Contractor
shall invoke the Augmented Quality Program described in Exhibit CC to this Agreement. In either
event, Contractor will work with each Subcontractor to establish appropriate witness and hold
points. Owner will be provided an opportunity to review and comment on the Contractor witness and
hold points as they are being developed with the supplier. Subject to the requirements of Section
5.9 of the Agreement, after the witness and hold points have been identified for the components
listed below, Contractor will forward proposed list of witness and hold points to Owner for review
and establishment of the Owner Witness and Hold Points in accordance with Section 5.9 of
the Agreement. From this list, Owner may select up to two (2) witness and hold points per
component to be classified as Owner Witness and Hold Points. Owner may request that additional
witness and hold points be classified as Owner Witness Points or Owner Hold Points, and Contractor
shall be entitled to seek a Change Order to accommodate such a request pursuant to Article
9 of the Agreement.

EXHIBIT W-1

TOSHIBA PARENT GUARANTEE

 

 

EXHIBIT W-1

Toshiba Parent Guaranty

[Form of Parent Company Guaranty]

GUARANTY

     This Guaranty (“Guaranty”) is made by Toshiba Corporation (“Toshiba”), a corporation duly
organized and existing under the laws of Japan and the parent of Westinghouse Electric Company LLC
(“Westinghouse”), in favor of Florida Power Corporation d/b/a Progress Energy Florida, Inc.
(“Progress”).

     WHEREAS, Westinghouse and Stone & Webster, Inc. (“Stone & Webster”, and collectively with
Westinghouse, the “Contractor”) and Progress are parties to the Engineering, Procurement and
Construction Agreement between the Contractor and Progress, dated as of [                                        ] (the
“Agreement”);

     WHEREAS, Toshiba, as the parent of Westinghouse, shall receive substantial and direct benefits
from the transaction contemplated by the Agreement and has agreed to enter into this Guaranty to
provide assurance for Westinghouse’s payment obligations in connection with the Agreement and to
induce Progress to enter into the Agreement; and

     WHEREAS, the execution and delivery of this Guaranty is a condition to Progress’ performance
of its obligations under the terms of the Agreement.

     NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and other good and valuable consideration, the
adequacy, receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, Toshiba hereby agrees as
follows:

     1. To induce Progress to enter into the Agreement, Toshiba hereby unconditionally, irrevocably
and absolutely guarantees to Progress and its respective successors and permitted assigns, the due
and punctual payment of all of the payment obligations of Westinghouse under the terms of the
Agreement (the “Guaranteed Obligations”).

     2. Toshiba shall be obligated to make payments under this Guaranty, within thirty (30) days
after both, (a) Westinghouse has defaulted in its obligation to make such payments due in
accordance with the terms of the Agreement and such default has not been cured during any
applicable cure period set forth in the Agreement, and (b) Progress has provided Toshiba with
written notice of such uncured payment default. Each of Toshiba and Progress hereby agrees that
any and all reasonable out of pocket costs including reasonable legal fees and expenses, incurred
by the prevailing party in obtaining any final and unappealable decision resulting from any legal
proceeding arising out of or in connection with this Guaranty shall be reimbursed by the other
party within thirty (30) days after receipt of such final and unappealable decision.

 

 

     3. Until all amounts payable to Progress pursuant to this Guaranty have been paid in full,
Toshiba shall not act to enforce any right to receive payment and shall not accept any payment from
either Westinghouse or Stone & Webster under any legal or equitable right (including any right of
subrogation) Toshiba may have or be entitled to claim against either Westinghouse or Stone &
Webster, or any successor corporation, company or other form of legal entity as a result of a
merger, stock transfer or other similar transaction.

     4. Upon the payment of any of the Guaranteed Obligations, Toshiba shall be subrogated to the
rights of Progress against Westinghouse with respect to such Guaranteed Obligations and Progress
agrees to take, at Toshiba’s expense, such steps as Toshiba may reasonably request to implement
such subrogation.

     5. The Guaranteed Obligations of Toshiba hereunder are several from Westinghouse or Stone &
Webster or any other person, and are primary obligations concerning which Toshiba is the principal
obligor. There are no conditions precedent to the enforcement of this Guaranty, except as
expressly contained herein. Subject to paragraph 8 below, it shall not be required or necessary for
Progress, in order to enforce performance by Toshiba under this Guaranty, to show any proof of
default by Westinghouse or Stone & Webster, or to exhaust its remedies against Westinghouse and/or
Stone & Webster or any other guarantor, or any other person liable for the performance of either
Westinghouse’s or Stone & Webster’s obligations under the Agreement.

     6. The liability of Toshiba under this Guaranty shall, to the fullest extent permitted under
applicable law, be absolute and irrevocable, subject to the conditions set forth herein.

     7. Progress may at any time and from time to time without notice to or consent of Toshiba and
without impairing or releasing the Guaranteed Obligations of Toshiba hereunder subordinate any
obligation or liability of either Westinghouse or Stone & Webster to Progress including any
security therefor. Any additional suretyship defenses are hereby waived by Toshiba. This Guaranty
constitutes a guaranty of payment and not merely of collection.

     8. Subject to the provisions of the foregoing paragraph and without limiting Toshiba’s other
defenses and rights hereunder: (a) Toshiba reserves to itself all rights and defenses to which
Westinghouse is or may be entitled to arising under the Agreement, except for defenses arising out
of the bankruptcy, insolvency, dissolution or liquidation of Westinghouse, and (b) the liability of
Toshiba under this Guaranty shall be subject to the limitations applicable to the underlying
obligations of Westinghouse under the Agreement, and Toshiba’s obligations and liability arising
from this Guaranty shall be no greater than that of Westinghouse under the Agreement.

     9. Toshiba agrees that Progress may at any time and from time to time, without notice to or
further consent of Toshiba, extend the time of payment of any of the Guaranteed Obligations, and
may also make any agreement with Westinghouse or Stone

 

 

& Webster or with any other person interested in the transactions contemplated by the Agreement for
the extension, renewal, payment, compromise, discharge or release thereof, in whole or in part, or
for any modification of the terms thereof or of any agreement between Progress and Westinghouse or
Stone & Webster without in any way impairing or affecting Toshiba’s obligations under this
Guaranty. Toshiba agrees that the obligations of Toshiba hereunder shall not be released or
discharged, in whole or in part, or otherwise affected by any action or event set forth below in
this paragraph 9. Toshiba acknowledges it will receive substantial and direct benefits from the
transactions contemplated by the Agreement and that the waivers set forth in this Guaranty and
below in this paragraph 9 are knowingly made in contemplation of such benefits. Toshiba hereby
waives any defense to enforcement of this Guaranty arising from:

          (a) subject to the obligation of Progress in paragraph 2 of this Guaranty to provide notice to
Toshiba, the failure of Progress to assert any claim or demand or to enforce, pursue or exhaust any
right or remedy against Toshiba, Westinghouse or Stone & Webster or any other person interested in
the transactions contemplated by the Agreement;

          (b) any change in the time, place or manner of payment of any of the Guaranteed Obligations or
any rescission, waiver, compromise, consolidation or other amendment or modification of any of the
terms or provisions of the Agreement or any other agreement evidencing, securing or otherwise
executed in connection with any of the Guaranteed Obligations;

          (c) the addition, substitution or release of any person interested in the transactions
contemplated by the Agreement;

          (d) any change in the organizational existence, structure or ownership of Westinghouse or
Stone & Webster or any other person interested in the transactions contemplated by the Agreement;

          (e) any insolvency, bankruptcy, reorganization or other similar proceeding affecting
Westinghouse or Stone & Webster or any other person interested in the transactions contemplated by
the Agreement; or

          (f) the adequacy of any other means Progress may have of obtaining repayment of any of the
Guaranteed Obligations.

To the fullest extent permitted by law, and subject to the other conditions hereunder, Toshiba
hereby expressly waives any and all rights or defenses arising by reason of any law which would
otherwise require any election of remedies by Progress. Toshiba waives promptness, diligence,
notice of the acceptance of this Guaranty and of the Guaranteed Obligations, presentment, demand
for payment (except as provided in paragraph 2 of this Guaranty), default, dishonor and protest,
notice of any Guaranteed Obligations incurred and all other notices of any kind (except for notices
to be provided to either Westinghouse or Stone & Webster pursuant to the Agreement and notices
required to be provided under this Guaranty), all defenses which may be available by

 

 

virtue of any
valuation, stay, moratorium law or other similar law now or hereafter in
effect, any right to require the marshalling of assets of Westinghouse or Stone & Webster or any
other person interested in the transactions contemplated by the Agreement, and all suretyship
defenses generally. Further, Toshiba hereby waives filing of claims with a court and any right to
require a proceeding first against Westinghouse or any other guarantor or surety, either in the
event of insolvency or bankruptcy of Westinghouse, or otherwise. Notwithstanding the foregoing and
any other provision contained herein, Toshiba does not waive and expressly retains any defenses,
counterclaims and set-offs available to either Westinghouse or Stone & Webster with respect to the
payment of the Guaranteed Obligations arising out of, under or relating to the Agreement.

     10. This Guaranty shall remain in full force and effect or shall be reinstated (as the case
may be), if at any time any payment guaranteed hereunder, in whole or in part, is annulled, set
aside, invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, rescinded or must otherwise be
returned by Progress upon the bankruptcy, insolvency, dissolution, reorganization or liquidation of
Westinghouse or upon or as a result of the appointment of a receiver or conservator of, or trustee
for Westinghouse or otherwise, all as though such payment had not been made.

     11. This Guaranty becomes effective as of the later of the date hereof or the date of the
effectiveness of the Agreement, and terminates upon the satisfaction of the Guaranteed Obligations,
but in no event later than the expiration of the applicable time period enumerated in Section 17.2
of the Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, in no event shall Toshiba’s liability under this
Guaranty, together with the liability of the Contractor under the Agreement and the liability of
The Shaw Group Inc. under its Guaranty to Progress, dated the date hereof, exceed the Maximum
Liability Amount, as such term is defined in the Agreement.

     12. This Guaranty is not for the benefit of any third party. The provisions of this Guaranty
are intended for the sole and exclusive benefit of Progress. Toshiba and Progress do not intend to
create any third party beneficiaries or otherwise create privity of contract with any other person.

     13. All notices, communications, and approvals required or permitted to be given hereunder
(“Notice”) (other than routine correspondence) shall be in writing and shall be valid and
sufficient if delivered in person or dispatched by certified mail (return receipt requested),
postage prepaid, in any post office in the United States or by any national overnight delivery
service (return receipt requested). Notices delivered in person shall be effective as of the time
of delivery, Notices by certified mail shall be effective three (3) days after the date of
postmark, and Notices sent by overnight delivery services shall be effective the day after they are
sent. Notices shall be addressed as follows:

	 	 	 	 	 	 	 
	 

	 	 	 	 	 	 
	 

	 	To Progress:
	 	Progress Energy Florida, Inc.	 	 
	 

	 	 	 	Attention: Senior Vice President and Chief Nuclear Officer

	 	To Toshiba:
	 	Toshiba Corporation	 	 

Either Toshiba or Progress may change the person and/or address to which Notices are to be sent at
any time by providing Notice of the change to the other in accordance with the provisions set forth
above.

     14. Neither Toshiba nor Progress shall assign this Guaranty in whole or in part without the
prior written consent of the other, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed.
If any assignment by either Toshiba or Progress of this Guaranty of any right, interest or
obligation therein requires the consent of, or notice to, any Government Authority (as defined in
the Agreement), then Toshiba or Progress, as applicable, shall not effect such assignment without
such consent of, or notice to, such Government Authority. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Progress
may assign this Guaranty in whole or in part, to a purchaser of the Facility (as defined in the
Agreement) or the Site (as defined in the Agreement) in connection with a sale (in whole or in

          (b) No authorization, approval, consent or order of, or registration or filing with, any court

          (c) This Guaranty, when executed and delivered, shall constitute a valid and legally binding

     16. The validity, construction, and performance of this Guaranty shall be governed by and

principles thereof relating to conflicts of laws except Section 5-1401 of the New York General

EXHIBIT W-2

Shaw Parent Guaranty

[Form of Parent Company Guaranty]

GUARANTY

     This Guaranty (“Guaranty”) is made by The Shaw Group Inc. (“Shaw”), a corporation duly
organized and existing under the laws of Louisiana and the indirect parent of Stone & Webster, Inc.
(“Stone & Webster”), in favor of Florida Power Corporation d/b/a Progress Energy Florida, Inc.
(“Progress”).

     WHEREAS, Stone & Webster and Westinghouse Electric Company LLC (“Westinghouse”, and
collectively with Stone & Webster, the “Contractor”) and Progress are parties to the Engineering,
Procurement and Construction Agreement between the Contractor and Progress, dated as of
[                    ] (the “Agreement”);

     WHEREAS, Shaw, as the indirect parent of Stone & Webster, shall receive substantial and direct
benefits from the transaction contemplated by the Agreement and has agreed to enter into this
Guaranty to provide assurance for Stone & Webster’s payment obligations in connection with the
Agreement and to induce Progress to enter into the Agreement; and

     WHEREAS, the execution and delivery of this Guaranty is a condition to Progress’ performance
of its obligations under the terms of the Agreement.

     NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and other good and valuable consideration, the
adequacy, receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, Shaw hereby agrees as follows:

     1. To induce Progress to enter into the Agreement, Shaw hereby unconditionally, irrevocably
and absolutely guarantees to Progress and its respective successors and permitted assigns, the due
and punctual payment of all of the payment obligations of Stone & Webster under the terms of the
Agreement (the “Guaranteed Obligations”); provided, however, that, [***].

     2. Shaw shall be obligated to make payments under this Guaranty, within thirty (30) days after
both, (a) Stone & Webster has defaulted in its obligation to make such payments due in accordance
with the terms of the Agreement and such default has not been cured during any applicable cure
period set forth in the Agreement, and (b) Progress has provided Shaw with written notice of such
uncured payment default. Each of Shaw and Progress hereby agrees that any and all reasonable out
of pocket costs including reasonable legal fees and expenses, incurred by the prevailing party in
obtaining any final and unappealable decision resulting from any legal proceeding arising out of or
in connection with this Guaranty shall be reimbursed by the other party within thirty (30) days
after receipt of such final and unappealable decision.

 

 

     3. Until all amounts payable to Progress pursuant to this Guaranty have been paid in full,
Shaw shall not act to enforce any right to receive payment and shall not accept any payment from
either Stone & Webster or Westinghouse under any legal or equitable right (including any right of
subrogation) Shaw may have or be entitled to claim against either Stone & Webster or Westinghouse,
or any successor corporation, company or other form of legal entity as a result of a merger, stock
transfer or other similar transaction.

     4. Upon the payment of any of the Guaranteed Obligations, Shaw shall be subrogated to the
rights of Progress against Stone & Webster with respect to such Guaranteed Obligations and Progress
agrees to take, at Shaw’s expense, such steps as Shaw may reasonably request to implement such
subrogation.

     5. The Guaranteed Obligations of Shaw hereunder are several from Stone & Webster or
Westinghouse or any other person, and are primary obligations concerning which Shaw is the
principal obligor. There are no conditions precedent to the enforcement of this Guaranty, except
as expressly contained herein. Subject to paragraph 8 below, it shall not be required or necessary
for Progress, in order to enforce performance by Shaw under this Guaranty, to show any proof of
default by Stone & Webster or Westinghouse, or to exhaust its remedies against Stone & Webster
and/or Westinghouse or any other guarantor, or any other person liable for the performance of
either Stone & Webster’s or Westinghouse’s obligations under the Agreement.

     6. The liability of Shaw under this Guaranty shall, to the fullest extent permitted under
applicable law, be absolute and irrevocable, subject to the conditions set forth herein.

     7. Progress may at any time and from time to time without notice to or consent of Shaw and
without impairing or releasing the Guaranteed Obligations of Shaw hereunder subordinate any
obligation or liability of either Stone & Webster or Westinghouse to Progress including any
security therefor. Any additional suretyship defenses are hereby waived by Shaw. This Guaranty
constitutes a guaranty of payment and not merely of collection.

     8. Subject to the provisions of the foregoing paragraph and without limiting Shaw’s other
defenses and rights hereunder: (a) Shaw reserves to itself all rights and defenses to which Stone &
Webster is or may be entitled to arising under the Agreement, except for defenses arising out of
the bankruptcy, insolvency, dissolution or liquidation of Stone & Webster, and (b) the liability of
Shaw under this Guaranty shall be subject to the limitations applicable to the underlying
obligations of Stone & Webster under the Agreement, and Shaw’s obligations and liability arising
from this Guaranty shall be no greater than that of Stone & Webster under the Agreement.

     9. Shaw agrees that Progress may at any time and from time to time, without notice to or
further consent of Shaw, extend the time of payment of any of the Guaranteed Obligations, and may
also make any agreement with Stone & Webster or Westinghouse or with any other person interested in
the transactions contemplated by the Agreement for the extension, renewal, payment, compromise,
discharge or release

 

 

thereof, in whole or in part, or for any modification of the terms thereof or of any agreement
between Progress and Stone & Webster or Westinghouse without in any way impairing or affecting
Shaw’s obligations under this Guaranty. Shaw agrees that the obligations of Shaw hereunder shall
not be released or discharged, in whole or in part, or otherwise affected by any action or event
set forth below in this paragraph 9. Shaw acknowledges it will receive substantial and direct
benefits from the transactions contemplated by the Agreement and that the waivers set forth in this
Guaranty and below in this paragraph 9 are knowingly made in contemplation of such benefits. Shaw
hereby waives any defense to enforcement of this Guaranty arising from:

          (a) subject to the obligation of Progress in paragraph 2 of this Guaranty to provide notice to
Shaw, the failure of Progress to assert any claim or demand or to enforce, pursue or exhaust any
right or remedy against Shaw, Stone & Webster or Westinghouse or any other person interested in the
transactions contemplated by the Agreement;

          (b) any change in the time, place or manner of payment of any of the Guaranteed Obligations or
any rescission, waiver, compromise, consolidation or other amendment or modification of any of the
terms or provisions of the Agreement or any other agreement evidencing, securing or otherwise
executed in connection with any of the Guaranteed Obligations;

          (c) the addition, substitution or release of any person interested in the transactions
contemplated by the Agreement;

          (d) any change in the organizational existence, structure or ownership of Stone & Webster or
Westinghouse or any other person interested in the transactions contemplated by the Agreement;

          (e) any insolvency, bankruptcy, reorganization or other similar proceeding affecting Stone &
Webster or Westinghouse or any other person interested in the transactions contemplated by the
Agreement; or

          (f) the adequacy of any other means Progress may have of obtaining repayment of any of the
Guaranteed Obligations.

To the fullest extent permitted by law, and subject to the other conditions hereunder, Shaw hereby
expressly waives any and all rights or defenses arising by reason of any law which would otherwise
require any election of remedies by Progress. Shaw waives promptness, diligence, notice of the
acceptance of this Guaranty and of the Guaranteed Obligations, presentment, demand for payment
(except as provided in paragraph 2 of this Guaranty), default, dishonor and protest, notice of any
Guaranteed Obligations incurred and all other notices of any kind (except for notices to be
provided to either Stone & Webster or Westinghouse pursuant to the Agreement and notices required
to be provided under this Guaranty), all defenses which may be available by virtue of any
valuation, stay, moratorium law or other similar law now or hereafter in effect, any right to
require the marshalling of assets of Stone & Webster or Westinghouse or any other person

 

 

interested in the transactions contemplated by the Agreement, and all suretyship defenses
generally. Further, Shaw hereby waives filing of claims with a court and any right to require a
proceeding first against Stone & Webster or any other guarantor or surety, either in the event of
insolvency or bankruptcy of Stone & Webster, or otherwise. Notwithstanding the foregoing and any
other provision contained herein, Shaw does not waive and expressly retains any defenses,
counterclaims and set-offs available to either Stone & Webster or Westinghouse with respect to the
payment of the Guaranteed Obligations arising out of, under or relating to the Agreement.

     10. This Guaranty shall remain in full force and effect or shall be reinstated (as the case
may be), if at any time any payment guaranteed hereunder, in whole or in part, is annulled, set
aside, invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, rescinded or must otherwise be
returned by Progress upon the bankruptcy, insolvency, dissolution, reorganization or liquidation of
Stone & Webster or upon or as a result of the appointment of a receiver or conservator of, or
trustee for Stone & Webster or otherwise, all as though such payment had not been made.

     11. This Guaranty becomes effective as of the later of the date hereof or the date of the
effectiveness of the Agreement, and terminates upon the satisfaction of the Guaranteed Obligations,
but in no event later than the expiration of the applicable time period enumerated in Section 17.2
of the Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, in no event shall Shaw’s liability under this
Guaranty, together with the liability of the Contractor under the Agreement and the liability of
Toshiba Corporation under its Guaranty to Progress, dated the date hereof, exceed the Maximum
Liability Amount, as such term is defined in the Agreement.

     12. This Guaranty is not for the benefit of any third party. The provisions of this Guaranty
are intended for the sole and exclusive benefit of Progress. Shaw and Progress do not intend to
create any third party beneficiaries or otherwise create privity of contract with any other person.

     13. All notices, communications, and approvals required or permitted to be given hereunder
(“Notice”) (other than routine correspondence) shall be in writing and shall be valid and
sufficient if delivered in person or dispatched by certified mail (return receipt requested),
postage prepaid, in any post office in the United States or by any national overnight delivery
service (return receipt requested). Notices delivered in person shall be effective as of the time
of delivery, Notices by certified mail shall be effective three (3) days after the date of
postmark, and Notices sent by overnight delivery services shall be effective the day after they are

written consent of the other, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. If any
assignment by either Shaw or Progress of this Guaranty of any right, interest or obligation therein
requires the consent of, or notice to, any Government Authority (as defined in the Agreement), then
Shaw or Progress, as applicable, shall not effect such assignment without such consent of, or
notice to, such Government Authority. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Progress may assign this
Guaranty in whole or in part, to a purchaser of the Facility (as defined in the Agreement) or the

Qualified Lender (as defined in the Agreement) in connection with obtaining financing for the
Facility without Shaw’s consent provided Progress has given Shaw at least thirty (30) days Notice
of such proposed sale, merger, acquisition, consolidation or grant of a security interest.

     15. Shaw represents and warrants that:

agreement of Shaw, except as the enforceability of this Guaranty may be limited by the effect of
any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency,
reorganization, moratorium or similar laws affecting creditor’s rights generally and by
general principles of equity; and

 

 

          (d) The execution, delivery and performance by Shaw of this Guaranty do not and shall not
contravene any law applicable to Shaw or its organizational documents and do not and shall not
result in the breach of or default under any indenture, mortgage, agreement instrument, judgment,
decree, order or ruling to which Shaw is a party or by which any of its properties are bound.

     16. The validity, construction, and performance of this Guaranty shall be governed by and
interpreted in accordance with the laws of the State of New York, without giving effect to the
principles thereof relating to conflicts of laws except Section 5-1401 of the New York General
Obligations Law. Shaw and Progress agree to the exclusive jurisdiction of the United States
District Court for the Southern District of New York or, if such court does not have jurisdiction
of the matter, the courts of the State of New York located in the City and County of New York, for
any legal proceedings that may be brought by Shaw or Progress arising out of or in connection with
this Guaranty or for recognition or enforcement of any judgment. By execution of this Guaranty,
each of Shaw and Progress accepts, generally and unconditionally, the jurisdiction of the aforesaid
court for legal proceedings arising out of or in connection with this Guaranty. Each of Shaw and
Progress waives any right to stay or dismiss any action or proceeding under or in connection with
this Guaranty brought before the foregoing court on the basis of forum non-conveniens or improper
venue. Each of Shaw and Progress hereby irrevocably waives all right to trial by jury in any
action, proceeding or counterclaim (whether based on contract, tort or otherwise) arising out of or
relating to this Guaranty.

     17. This Guaranty embodies the entire agreement and understanding between Shaw and Progress
and supersedes all prior and contemporaneous agreements and understandings relating to the subject
matter hereof.

     18. This Guaranty may be executed in two or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed
an original, but all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument.

     IN WITNESS WHEREOF, Shaw has caused this Guaranty to be executed in its corporate name by its

solely as required for a specific designated purpose, and provided that Company enters into a
written confidentiality agreement with such third party. The terms of such written confidentiality
agreement shall be substantially the same as those contained in this Agreement, except that (a)
such third party’s license grant will be limited to the specific scope of such third party’s work,
and (b) Westinghouse will be an express third party beneficiary of such agreement with rights to
enforce and/or seek remedies for breach thereof. Prior to any such disclosure, Company shall give
Westinghouse and Progress notice of its proposed disclosure of Westinghouse Proprietary Data to any
such third party, along with a copy of the written confidentiality agreement under which the
Westinghouse Proprietary Data is to be disclosed.

     5.5 Company acknowledges that the Westinghouse Proprietary Data is proprietary and valuable to
Westinghouse and that any disclosure of Westinghouse Proprietary Data or unauthorized use of
Westinghouse Proprietary Data may cause irreparable harm and loss to Westinghouse. Company
acknowledges, represents, and agrees that it is a Qualified Entity as defined herein.

     5.6 Should Company or PROGRESS discover a breach of the terms and conditions of this
Agreement, or any agreement between Company and third party recipients of Westinghouse Proprietary
Data, Company or PROGRESS shall promptly notify Westinghouse of such breach and provide to
Westinghouse all necessary information and support pertaining to any investigation, suit or
proceeding desired to be conducted or brought by Westinghouse related to such breach. Company and
PROGRESS shall fully and promptly cooperate with Westinghouse in any action taken by Westinghouse
for such breach.

     5.7 Westinghouse shall not be responsible to Company for the use, the consequences of the use,
or the results obtained by use of Westinghouse’s Proprietary Data by third parties.

Data, and will require any third parties receiving such Westinghouse Proprietary Data as set
forth herein. For Westinghouse Proprietary Data that is electronically recorded, such proprietary
markings also shall be maintained.

6. No Warranty. The parties also understand that the Westinghouse Proprietary Data is
provided “AS IS” to Company and that Westinghouse and PROGRESS make no representations or
warranties, express or implied, as to the quality, accuracy or completeness of the Westinghouse
Proprietary Data disclosed under this Agreement. Westinghouse, PROGRESS, their representatives,
officers, directors, employees, and agents have no liability or responsibility whatsoever to
Company, or third parties with respect to the use of, the consequences of the use of, results
obtained by use of, or reliance upon the Westinghouse Proprietary Data by Company. WESTINGHOUSE
AND PROGRESS SPECIFICALLY DISCLAIM AND ALL PARTIES AGREE THAT ALL WARRANTIES, INCLUDING WITHOUT
LIMITATION ANY WARRANTIES OF FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE AND MERCHANTABILITY, TO THE
WESTINGHOUSE PROPRIETARY DATA ARE HEREBY FULLY DISCLAIMED AS ALLOWED BY LAW.

7. Third Party Beneficiary. It is understood and agreed that Westinghouse is an intended
beneficiary of this Agreement, and that all obligations of Company may be enforced directly by
Westinghouse against Company.

8. Term. The license set forth in this Agreement shall expire upon completion of all Work
and expiration of the Warranty Period (“Term”). This license Term cannot be extended except with
the written consent of Westinghouse and all of the limited, non-exclusive license rights to the
Westinghouse Proprietary Data granted to Company herein shall immediate revert back to Westinghouse
at the end of the Term. The obligations of confidentiality set forth in this Agreement, however,
shall survive the expiration or termination of the license and continue past the Term until the
Westinghouse Proprietary Data is deemed by either Westinghouse or a final non-appealable judgment
by court of appropriate jurisdiction to no longer be confidential information, or otherwise is no
longer confidential information as set forth in Section 3 of this Agreement. PROGRESS may
terminate this Agreement prior to the end of the Term in the event Company breaches any material
obligations set forth herein and Company fails to cure the breach within a time period reasonable
in view of the nature and extent of the breach. Notwithstanding the above, in the event of an
inadvertent disclosure of Westinghouse Proprietary Data by Company, Progress agrees to provide
Company with a reasonable time in which to cure the breach and Company agrees to make best efforts
to cure such breach.

solely as required for a specific designated purpose, and provided that Company enters into a
written confidentiality agreement with such third party. The terms of such written confidentiality
agreement shall be substantially the same as those contained in this Agreement, except that (a)
such third party’s license grant will be limited to the specific scope of such third party’s work,
and (b) Stone & Webster shall be an express third party beneficiary of such agreement with rights
to enforce and/or seek remedies for breach thereof. Prior to any such disclosure, Company shall

Company, Progress agrees to provide Company with a reasonable time in which to cure the breach and
Company agrees to make best efforts to cure such breach.

EXHIBIT BB

OWNER CONTROLLED INSURANCE PROGRAM

 

 

EXHIBIT BB

OWNER CONTROLLED INSURANCE PROGRAM

Capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined herein have the meanings assigned to such
terms in the Agreement to which this Exhibit BB is attached.

The following Exhibit BB describes the OCIP to be supplied at the option of Owner, subject
to Section 16.2 of the Agreement. Should the Parties agree that Contractor will supply a
CCIP as permitted under Section 16.2, the following Exhibit BB and certain
provisions in Article 16 shall describe the coverages to be supplied under the CCIP, and
all references to “Owner” and “Contractor” shall be reversed, as appropriate, and all references to
“OCIP” shall be changed to “CCIP”.

     BB.1 Owner Controlled Insurance Program.

     (a) At Owner’s option, and subject to the provisions of Section 16.2, Owner
shall implement an Owner Controlled Insurance Program (OCIP) for the Work to be performed
at the Site, Nearby Work Areas, and Other Locations (as defined in Section
BB.5(a)) at Owner’s expense. Under the OCIP, Owner will procure and maintain Workers’
Compensation and Employer’s Liability, Commercial General Liability, and Umbrella/Excess
Liability, for the benefit of Enrolled Parties. Except as hereinafter provided, this
coverage will be effective at the beginning of Phase II, or as otherwise agreed by the
Parties, and will remain effective through Substantial Completion of the Facility, and
thereafter as mutually agreed by the Parties.

     (b) Contractor and its Subcontractors who provide labor at the Site or Nearby Work
Areas as a part of the Work shall be required to participate in the OCIP as Enrolled
Parties, subject to the conditions set forth herein. In order to become Enrolled Parties,
Contractor and its Subcontractors shall submit the necessary enrollment forms and shall be
required to meet the reasonable conditions for acceptance into the OCIP as evidenced by
confirmation of enrollment prior to performing any Work at the Site or Nearby Work Areas
on or after the effective date of the OCIP.

     (c) While the OCIP is intended to provide coverage while performing Work at the Site
and Nearby Work Areas, the OCIP is not intended to meet all of the Enrolled Parties’
insurance needs. The insurance to be supplied by Owner as described in Section
BB.5 will not apply with respect to any Subcontractors who are not enrolled in
accordance with the provisions herein. The OCIP does not provide any of the coverages
required of Contractor under Section 16.2(f), and only provides those coverages
specified in Section BB.5.

     (d) Contractor will be responsible for requiring its Subcontractors who are not
Enrolled Parties to procure and maintain the insurance coverage required under Section
BB.10 during the term of this Agreement, subject to Section 16.6. Should
Contractor reduce or waive such insurance requirements of any Subcontractor, [***].

 

 

     BB.2 Owner’s Insurance Obligations; Enrolled Party’s Obligations; Excluded Parties.

     (a) Owner assumes no obligation to provide insurance other than that contemplated
under this Exhibit BB and Articles 15 and 16 of this Agreement.
Contractor, prior to the placement of the OCIP coverage, will review and verify that the
OCIP coverages, limits of coverage and insurance policies satisfy the requirements of this
Exhibit BB and Article 16. Nothing contained herein will be deemed to
place any responsibility on Owner for ensuring that the insurance provided by the OCIP is
sufficient for the conduct of any Enrolled Party’s business or performance of the Work.
[***].

     (b) Any type of insurance coverage or limits of liability not provided by the OCIP or
not otherwise required under the Agreement which Contractor or its Subcontractors desire
for its or their own protection will be their sole responsibility and such expense and
will not be billed to Owner. [***].

     (c) Off-Site Subcontractors, fabricators, vendors, suppliers (who do not perform or
subcontract installation), material dealers, guard services, janitorial services, cranes,
demolition, blasting, truckers, (including trucking to the Site and Nearby Work Areas where
delivery is the only scope of Work to be performed), asbestos abatement or other hazardous
waste removal contractor(s) and their respective subcontractor(s) of any tier, and others
whose sole function is to transport, pickup, deliver or carry materials, supplies, tools
equipment, parts or other items to or from the Site or Nearby Work Areas, or who do not
perform any actual on-Site labor, or any other Person specifically determined by Owner to
be excluded (the “Excluded Parties”) will not be covered by the OCIP. Owner will provide
Notice to Contractor identifying each Person that Owner specifically determines to be an
Excluded Party during the term of the OCIP. Owner will provide Contractor with an updated,
current list of such Excluded Parties as a part of Owner’s Notice.

     (d) Unless specifically approved by Owner in writing, the policies set forth in
Section BB.5(b) will cover only those operations of Contractor and its
Subcontractors performed in connection with the Work at the Site, the Nearby Work Areas,
and Other Locations (as defined in Section BB.5(a)).

     BB.3 Owner’s Election to Discontinue OCIP Coverage.

     (a) If Owner, for any reason, is unable to furnish coverage, elects to discontinue
the OCIP, modifies the limits of liability provided in the OCIP below those specified in
Section BB.5(b), or requests that Contractor or any of its Subcontractors withdraw
from the OCIP prior to Substantial Completion, then, upon thirty (30) Days Notice from
Owner, Contractor or any of its Subcontractors specified by Owner in such Notice, will
apply reasonable efforts, using the Insurance Premium Worksheets under Section
BB.8.(j) as a basis and considering changes in costs and availability of coverage, to
obtain at Owner’s expense and thereafter maintain during the performance of the Work at
the Site and Nearby Work Areas, all (or a portion thereof as specified by

 

 

Owner) of the insurance required to be provided under Section BB.5, by
Excluded Parties and as otherwise required under Sections 16.1 and 16.2 of
the Agreement or as otherwise agreed, and Owner will thereafter no longer be obligated to
furnish all or a part of such insurance through the OCIP. The form, content, limits of
liability and cost of such insurance and the insurer issuing such insurance secured by
Contractor and its Subcontractors pursuant to the provisions of this Section BB.3
will be subject to Owner’s approval, which approval will not be unreasonably delayed or
withheld. Should neither Party be able to obtain the required insurance coverage at a
reasonable cost and on reasonable terms, the Parties shall discuss the various options
available for satisfying the intent of this subsection (a), taking into account the cost
and availability of the required coverage, the general conditions in the insurance market,
the risks inherent in performing the Work, and any other factors that the Parties consider
to be relevant. Should the Parties fail to reach mutual agreement, then Owner shall, at
Owner’s option, either (i) indemnify Contractor, so that Contractor has protection against
liability equal to the coverages required hereunder, or (ii) terminate this Agreement
under Section 22.4(b).

     (b) Contractor and its Subcontractors will be reimbursed for the cost of their
insurance incurred pursuant to Section BB.3(a) [***] in accordance with
Exhibit G. If any coverage applies to more than one site, the cost shall be
allocated on an appropriate basis.

BB.4 Limits of Liability. The furnishing of insurance by Owner will in no way
relieve or limit Contractor’s and Subcontractors’ responsibility or obligation whatsoever
otherwise imposed by this Agreement except as otherwise provided in the Agreement.

BB.5 Insurance Provided by Owner Under the OCIP.

     (a) The OCIP will provide each Enrolled Party with insurance coverage as an insured
and as described in this Section BB.5, and Article 16 of the Agreement, as
applicable. Notwithstanding any other provision to the contrary, this coverage shall
apply to the employees of each Enrolled Party while they are on Site, at Nearby Work Areas
and “Other Locations” temporarily; provided they have been assigned to the Site (or Nearby
Work Areas). Such “Other Locations” shall be limited to trips to and locations within a
[***] radius of the Site boundary (or any specific locations within a radius of [***] of
the Site boundary as mutually agreed in writing), such as storage facilities, suppliers,
lay down yards, off-Site (or off-Nearby Work Areas) business meal locations, or meetings,
for purposes directly related to the Work, provided that such employees are acting within
the course and scope of their employment. In regard to locations other than those
described above, all insurance provided by Owner under the OCIP will be excess of other
valid and collectable insurance per Section BB 9 of this contract.

     (b) The Owner’s representative will provide each Enrolled Party in the OCIP a Project
Insurance Manual, which will include a summary of the insurance coverage, loss control
procedures and claim procedures as well as enrollment forms and

 

 

reporting requirements for the OCIP. The Enrolled Party will use and comply with the
requirements contained in said manual. Insurance coverage provided to Enrolled Parties
under the OCIP includes the following:

          (i) Workers’ Compensation Insurance — Statutory Limits of the Workers’
Compensation Laws of the State of Florida including coverage for the benefits
provided under the United States Longshoremen and Harbor Workers Act, Voluntary
Compensation, with Coverage B — Employer’s Liability (with limits of [***] for
Bodily Injury by accident, [***] for Bodily Injury by disease and [***] policy limit
Bodily Injury by disease), covering operations of the Enrolled Party performed on or
incidental to Work at the Site, at Nearby Work Areas and at Other Locations. Such
Workers’ Compensation Insurance shall include Borrowed Servant coverage, Leased
Worker coverage, a Maritime Coverage endorsement for applicable exposures and
Multi-States Transient Cover for Worker’s Compensation.

          (ii) Commercial General Liability Insurance — (Excluding Automobile and
Professional Liability) in form providing coverage not less than a Standard Form
Commercial General Liability insurance policy, including hazards of explosion,
collapse, underground, Enrolled Parties as named insureds, completed operations,
broad form contractual liability coverage and personal injury liability coverage for
claims arising out of the Work for personal injury, bodily injury and property
damage in policy or policies of insurance such that the total available limits, to
all insureds combined will be [***] term limit. Coverage will apply only to Work
performed at the Site, at Nearby Work Areas, and at Other Locations. Without
limitation to the foregoing, such insurance coverage shall include the following
endorsements: Incidental Medical Malpractice; Valuable Papers Liability; Electronic
Data Liability; Contractual Liability for Railroads (for the period of time
applicable, which may be a separate policy ); and Contractual Liability Assumption.
Such Commercial General Liability Insurance will include coverage for resulting
damage due to Enrolled Parties’ Work that is defective or malfunctions. Such
insurance will not include coverage for products liability for any product(s)
manufactured, assembled, or otherwise worked upon away from the Site for any
Enrolled Party performing such off-Site and off-Nearby Work Area Work. The
completed operations coverage specified above shall remain in effect for ten (10)
years after Final Completion of the Facility.

          (iii) Umbrella/Excess Liability Insurance — In limits of [***], excess of those
stated above on a following form basis, to all insureds combined.

     (c) Workers’ Compensation and Employers Liability insurance is primary and
non-contributing with respect to any persons (other than Owner’s employees) covered by
such insurance. Commercial General Liability and Umbrella/Excess insurance is primary
insurance and non-contributing with any other insurance carried by the Enrolled Parties.
With respect to Contractor Interests there
shall be no deductibles under the OCIP program, i.e. Contractor Interests shall not
be liable for any deductibles or self insured retentions.

 

 

     (d) In consideration of Owner purchasing OCIP insurance as stated above, the Enrolled
Parties will assign to Owner all return premiums, premium refunds, dividends and other
monies due or to become due in connection with the insurance which Owner provides under
the OCIP, all of which will inure to the benefit of Owner. The Enrolled Parties will
execute such further documentation as may be required by Owner to effect this assignment.

     (e) Each Enrolled Party on its own behalf and on behalf of anyone claiming by,
through or under them, whether by way of subrogation or otherwise, hereby waives (or will
be required to waive) during the Work and thereafter any and all subrogation rights which
they may now or hereafter have against any other Enrolled Party (including Contractor
Interests, in the case of Contractor, and Owner Affiliates, Owner Personnel and Facility
co-owners, in the case of Owner), in connection with the performance of the Work to the
extent such loss is not the result of any intentional wrongful act or any intentional
wrongful omission of such Enrolled Party against whom such claim is made causing such loss
and are covered losses under the insurance provided hereunder.

BB.6 Duty to Enroll. Contractor shall require eligible Subcontractors to take
necessary steps to become enrolled in the OCIP, and shall require eligible Subcontractors
to comply with the applicable terms and conditions of this Exhibit BB. Once the
required documentation and information is received, Owner shall take necessary steps to
enroll eligible Subcontractors in the OCIP. Upon enrollment in the OCIP, the Contractor
and eligible Contractors shall become “Enrolled Parties.” Once a Subcontractor becomes an
Enrolled Party, Contractor shall be responsible to verify that insurance costs are removed
from any costs that are reimbursable by Owner. Owner shall not be obligated to reimburse
Contractor for any such insurance costs.

BB.7 Conflicts. In the event of a conflict between this Agreement and the Project
Insurance Manual, the provisions of this Agreement will govern.

BB.8 Cooperation. Contractor and its Subcontractors, as a condition to becoming
Enrolled Parties, will:

     (a) Furnish to Owner, its insurance representatives or the insurance company all
information and documentation which Owner may reasonably require in connection with the
issuance of any policies, including such records as may be necessary for the proper
computation of insurance premiums, in such form and substance as Owner may reasonably
require. Contractor and its Subcontractors will each complete an enrollment application
as a condition to Owner providing the insurance coverage described in Section
BB.5. In addition, Contractor and its Subcontractors will cooperate with Owner
regarding such application. A Project Insurance Manual will be distributed to Contractor
in connection with this Agreement.

 

 

The Project Insurance Manual describes the procedures to be followed for enrolling in
and complying with the OCIP, and is hereby included as part of this Agreement by
reference. Contractor and its Subcontractors will complete the enrollment application and
other such forms contained in the enrollment package as are applicable to the Agreement,
as well as complete the monthly payroll reporting form and follow the procedures as
outlined in the Project Insurance Manual. Contractor will include these insurance
specifications in its contract for Subcontractors providing direct labor in connection
with the Work at the Site or at Nearby Work Areas and will ensure that such Subcontractors
receive the Project Insurance Manual, enroll in the OCIP, and will require the
Subcontractors to comply with the OCIP procedures.

     (b) Furnish to Owner or the insurance company, on-Site payroll reports on the form as
required and described in the Project Insurance Manual by the 15th of the
following month for the prior month (including months with no payroll).

records and provide documentation as may be required to assure accuracy of those payroll
reports. If Contractor fails to submit documents as required, Owner may withhold related
payments until such payroll reports are received by Owner and/or its insurer; provided
that Owner first gives Contractor thirty (30) Days Notice that the required documents have
not been received.

     (d) Promptly comply with the reasonable requirements, obligations and recommendations
of Owner or insurance company so that the OCIP may be properly administered and so that
the insurance companies will continue to provide the coverage as specified in this
Agreement under the OCIP. If Contractor or its Subcontractors fail to promptly comply
with such requirements, obligations or recommendations, Owner may withhold payments due to
Contractor until such time as they have been performed; provided that Owner first gives
Contractor thirty (30) Days Notice that the requirements, obligations and recommendations
have not been complied with.

     (e) Contractor and its Subcontractors will cooperate with Owner with regard to
administration and operation of the OCIP. Contractor’s and its Subcontractor’s
responsibilities will include but are not limited to: operations and insurance
information; inclusion of OCIP provisions in all applicable subcontracts; notification to
Owner of all applicable subcontracts awarded; maintenance and provision of monthly payroll
records and other records as necessary for premium computation; compliance with applicable
loss control (safety) and claims reporting procedures; maintenance of an OSHA Log to be
provided monthly to Owner.

     (f) Any fines assessed by a Government Authority against Contractor for late
enrollment or claims which are reported late by Contractor are the responsibility of
Contractor and/or its Subcontractors, and will not be reimbursed by Owner.

 

 

     (g) The Enrolled Parties will provide accurate information during enrollment.

     (h) Each Enrolled Party shall identify the total cost of first dollar Workers’
Compensation, Commercial General Liability and Umbrella/Excess Liability insurance that it
has excluded from its Scope of Work, regardless of risk financing technique the Enrolled
Parties employ for its Workers’ Compensation and General Liability exposures, including
but not limited to insurance premiums, expected losses with any retention or deductible
amount, loss handling expenses and administrative expenses. In calculating insurance
costs, the Enrolled Parties shall use the Workers’ Compensation, General Liability and
Umbrella/Excess limits as described in Section BB.5 as if they were required to
provide the coverages and limits of liability for Work on Site, or at Nearby Work Areas.

     (i) If the Enrolled Party carries a deductible under any of its policies, then the
following may be requested by Owner:

	 	•	 	[***] of loss history for all entities that retains losses. Paid,
outstanding and total incurred losses must be evidenced by policy period.
	 
	 	•	 	[***] of payroll history for all entities

     (j) The Enrolled Parties will complete and submit the Insurance Premium Worksheet,
including the supporting documents (Copies of the policy declaration page and policy rate
pages or Deductible Agreement pages if on a large deductible program) to Owner’s
representative. The Enrolled Parities will provide accurate insurance costs, and estimates
where applicable.

     (k) Change Orders will be submitted net of Commercial General Liability, Worker’s
Compensation, and Umbrella/Excess insurance costs for Work covered by the OCIP.

     (l) If Contractor will be subcontracting Work to others and has not yet identified
all of its Subcontractors, or does not have the insurance cost for its Subcontractor(s),
the Contractor shall include a best estimate of these costs until such time actual costs
have been identified.

EXHIBIT CC

AUGMENTED QUALITY PROGRAM FOR CRITICAL NON-SAFETY EQUIPMENT

Contractor shall implement an augmented quality program based on the objectives and intent of
Owner’s NGGM-PM-0020 Critical Non-Safety Equipment Program for the critical commercial non-safety
equipment as delineated in this Exhibit CC.

Following is the enhanced program the Contractor shall implement for equipment in the following
table. For clarity, the data sheet number and responsible party are also depicted.

	1.	 	Contractor shall include enhanced quality expectations as described below in applicable
contract documentation for both internal and external suppliers for all materials, equipment,
and services covered by this Augmented Quality Program (“AQP”).
	 
	2.	 	Contractor shall develop a project specific quality procedure that addresses how it will
implement the requirements of this Exhibit CC.
	 
	3.	 	Contractor shall implement the following:

	 	a.	 	Technical specifications shall be prepared to include clear
expectations on quality and documentation of the work:

	 	i.	 	The technical specifications shall:

	 	1.	 	Identify critical attributes and
pre-installation preventative maintenance requirements;
	 
	 	2.	 	Include clear expectations on
quality and documentation of the work, with focus on
Subcontractors’ processes and procedures; and
	 
	 	3.	 	Where source surveillance or source
inspection is not performed, Contractor will plan and implement
an enhanced receiving inspection program for these components,
with subject matter experts (SME’s) establishing specific items
to be inspected based on the specific component and its critical
attributes.

	 	b.	 	Quality assurance reviews of procurement specifications,
procurement packages, and purchase requisitions/orders.
	 
	 	c.	 	Contractor will develop, as appropriate, a pre-production review
meeting schedule, an inspection schedule, and audit/surveillance schedule for
the items purchased under this AQP. The Owner may participate in up to three
quality assurance visits at each subcontractor facility. If there is a pattern
of non-conformances exceeding industry norms, Owner may participate in
additional visits as may be necessary.

Page 1 of 4

 

	 	d.	 	It is expected that the Subcontractor will implement quality
assurance program controls that meet the requirements of the AQP. These program
controls shall ensure that all repair and rework processes and non-conformances
are documented and results trended. If any program deficiencies are discovered
during any planned audit/surveillance, Contractor will undertake the necessary
actions to ensure the Subcontractors correct such program deficiencies.
	 
	 	e.	 	Review for acceptability the final data package, certificate of
conformance, and/or certificate of compliance.
	 
	 	f.	 	For MS35 EHC Electronic Controls, the following additional
impacts are specific. These impacts include a number of specific changes from
the implementation plan for the standard AP1000 turbine control system (TOS).
Assumptions have been made as to exactly what enhancements to the Quality
Assurance Program will be required, and what the impacts will be to the software
Verification and Validation program. These changes include: 

	 	i.	 	Preparation of unique Project Quality Plan for
TOS and;
	 
	 	ii.	 	Establishment of a systematic trending program
specific to TOS related to rework, repair, and non-conformances.

	 	g.	 	Receipt inspection at the site shall be performed in accordance
with S&W Category II quality requirements.
	 
	 	h.	 	Owner may witness the receipt inspection of the items listed in
the Table below without impact to the pricing under this Agreement.
	 
	 	i.	 	Contractor shall provide documentation in accordance with the
PQAP and this AQP.
	 
	 	j.	 	Storage and handling of equipment practices will be initiated
following the receiving inspection.
	 
	 	k.	 	Non-conformances found during receipt inspection will be
dispositioned in accordance with the PQAP and this AQP.

	4.	 	In addition, the following are specific to equipment designated as Toshiba responsibility:

	 	a.	 	Only the specific items listed in the table below are covered by
the AQP. Other items described by MS80-Z0D-001 such as the auxiliary pieces
of equipment such as lube oil, gland seal condenser and air removal condenser
are not included..
	 
	 	b.	 	Toshiba will conduct three inspection level quality assurance
audits at: 1) Toshiba Nuclear/Keihin; 2) Toshiba Hamakawasaki; and 3) one
sub-supplier. The audits will be common audits for turbine/generator/main
valves at Toshiba Nuclear/Keihin; for main transformers at Hamakawasaki; and
condenser/feedwater heaters/moisture separator reheater at the sub-supplier.

Page 2 of 4

 

	 	c.	 	Toshiba will conduct three general quality assurance audits: 1)
at Toshiba Nuclear/Keihin for turbine/generator/main valves; 2) at Toshiba
Hamakawasaki for main transformers; and 3) one sub-supplier for
condenser/feedwater heaters/moisture separator reheater.
	 
	 	d.	 	One witness point, for each of the above items, will be performed
immediately prior to shipment or immediately prior to the item being assembled
in the case where an internal inspection cannot be performed after assembly
(whichever is earlier).
