ARTICLE 8

PROJECT SCHEDULE AND PROJECT CONTROLS

8.1 Time For Performance of the Work. Contractor shall carry out and complete the Work on or before the Milestone Dates inserted in the Project Schedule and listed in Exhibit B. Should the Work fall behind to such extent that the respective Milestone Dates may, as determined by Owner or Owner’s Representative in consultation with Contractor, be at risk, Contractor shall propose to Owner and Owner’s Representative, within five (5) Days of determining that any Milestone Date may be at risk, another course of action that will return the Project to a state of Schedule compliance to meet the remaining Milestone Dates contained in the Contract Documents. Such recovery Schedule may include re-planning task sequences, increasing personnel or other resources of Contractor or of any Subcontractor employed on the Work, increasing the number of shifts, overtime operations, the addition of Subcontractors or other steps to cause the recovery of the progress of the Work. Contractor shall not be entitled to any additional payment for taking any such steps. Should Owner or Owner’s Representative reasonably believe that Contractor’s proposed course of action is not sufficient to restore the Work to meet the Milestone Dates, Owner shall advise Contractor that Contractor has five (5) Days to correct the schedule problem and recover the time on the Project Critical Path or to make arrangements, acceptable to Owner and Owner’s Representative, to correct the schedule problem and recover the time on the Project Critical Path. If Contractor has not corrected the schedule problem or does not have a reasonably acceptable plan to correct the schedule problem within such time, Owner shall have the right, following consultation with Contractor as to the most appropriate method, to require Contractor to increase the number of its employees, or to increase or change the amount or kind of tools or equipment or to increase the time worked by the employees until the Work is back on schedule or a plan for regaining the schedule reasonably acceptable to Owner is proposed by Contractor or any combination thereof. Costs for such Work shall be paid by Contractor if such delay has been caused by the Contractor.

8.2 ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇. A milestone schedule in a bar chart format is required to be submitted within fourteen (14) Days after the Effective Date (“Milestone Schedule”).

Page 17

8.4.2 Baseline Schedule Updates. The engineering and procurement activities in the Baseline Schedule will be updated monthly starting with the July 2006 reporting through September 2006. In mid-October 2006, the Owner and Contractor will meet to determine whether to increase the frequency of the engineering and procurement Baseline Schedule updates to bi-monthly in consideration of the Owner’s reasonable assessment of the Contractor’s reporting to date. The Construction activities in the Baseline Schedule will be updated weekly. All progress will be reported on the basis of physical percent complete of the activity to date. The amount of remaining duration on partially completed activities shall be based on the amount of time required to complete the remaining Work. Actual start and finish dates will be recorded on each of the Baseline Schedule activities as they are started and completed. The updated Schedule of construction activity will be electronically transmitted to Owner weekly for inclusion in the Owner-controlled Baseline Schedule for the entire Site and to coordinate the interface between Contractor and others working on the Site.

8.4.3 Manpower Loading. The Baseline Schedule for construction and all schedule updates thereto will be manpower loaded. Each Schedule activity or task will be assigned a total number of craft-hours (based on direct man-hours including ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ and general ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇) as required to perform the Work involved. Contractor shall demonstrate to the reasonable satisfaction of the Owner that the total number of man-hours loaded in the Schedule are the same as and balance to the total direct man-hours estimated by Contractor.

8.4.4 CPM Diagrams. The CPM Schedule will be submitted by the Contractor to the Owner in electronic form (XER File) and shall be structured so that the Owner can produce graphical charts at its offices that show the logical relationships of all Work activities including time-scaled logic diagrams of the Baseline Schedule with all information contained on each sheet without reducing its readability. The Project Critical Path shall be clearly shown and identified in the Baseline Schedule calculations and also on the time-scaled logic diagrams. Contractor shall designate for each Work activity its unique identification number, full description, planned duration, remaining duration, percent complete, calendar identification (“Activity ID”), and the Owner’s WBS, if provided.

8.4.5 Monitoring Activity IDs. Contractor must closely monitor the relationships between each Activity ID to assure the Baseline Schedule and all updated schedules properly reflect the planned Work sequences, the physical relationships and the known constraints. Negative lag relationships will be minimized; however, they can be used and with an explanation provided to the Owner when requested. Zeroing out of free float is allowed. Milestones and Schedule Plug Dates shall be included, and may be tied to the logic; however, the Contractor will provide the scheduling methodology to the Owner when requested in such cases.

8.4.6 Features Included in Baseline Schedule. The Baseline Schedule must include the following features and shall, at a minimum, consist of the following:

8.4.6.1 Activity ID Numbers. Each Activity ID number shall be unique to one activity only.

12.11.1 ▇▇▇▇ ▇ Provisional Acceptance. Final payment of 1.0% of the Contract Price shall be made to Contractor upon achievement of Unit 2 Provisional Acceptance. Contractor shall submit, in addition to the material required under Subarticles 12.4 and 12.5, a statement summarizing and reconciling all previous invoices, payments, Change Orders, Contractor Change Requests and Final Lien Waivers from Contractor and all Major Subcontractors.

12.11.2 Owner Review of Statement. Owner shall review and accept or reject such statement within ten (10) Days of receipt thereof. To the extent accepted, Owner shall pay Contractor all remaining amounts due, within thirty (30) Days of the receipt of such statement. Owner shall notify Contractor of the rejection of any portion or all of such statement. Any amount not accepted shall be treated as being in dispute. When Contractor’s final statement submitted pursuant to this Subarticle has been fully paid, Contractor’s acceptance of final payment shall be deemed to be a waiver of all claims by Contractor for payment of the Contract Price or other obligations of Owner except for claims that have been previously made but have not been resolved. Nothing in this Article shall be construed to imply a waiver of any right to any amount that is the subject of a written protest at the time acceptance of final payment is made.

Page 32

12.11.3 Contractor Prevention of Liens. The final payment shall not become due unless the Five Percent LOC, if applicable, complies with Subarticle 12.12 and until Contractor submits to Owner an affidavit, together with a final release of Lien in form and content specified in Exhibit O from Contractor and from each of the Major Subcontractors as required by Subarticles 12.4 and 12.5, representing and affirming that all indebtedness connected with the Work and any Lien or rights to file any such Liens related thereto, for which Owner or its property might in any way be responsible or to which it may be subject, have been paid, waived or otherwise satisfied. Contractor shall not permit a Lien to be placed on any Owner property by Contractor’s Subcontractors or their employees. Should Owner receive Notice of an intent to file a Lien from any of Contractor’s Subcontractors, or employees, Owner will notify Contractor. Upon receipt of Notice from Owner of the intent of one of Contractor’s Subcontractor employees, to file a Lien, Contractor shall immediately take steps to prevent the filing of such Lien. If Contractor fails to prevent the filing of such Lien, Contractor shall be responsible and liable for and shall indemnify Owner for all of Owner’s costs, expenses (including attorneys’ fees), liabilities, damages, fees, penalties, judgments and settlement costs arising from the placement of such Lien. The obligations and liabilities of Contractor under this Subsection shall not apply where the basis for such Lien relates to amounts invoiced by Contractor that are either not paid or disputed by Owner.

12.11.4 No Entitlement to Final Payment Until Unit 2 Provisional Acceptance. Notwithstanding any provisions to the contrary in this Contract, Owner and Contractor acknowledge and agree that Contractor shall not be entitled to the final payment (less any retention) unless and until Contractor has achieved ▇▇▇▇ ▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇.

12.12 Contractor’s Five Percent LOC.

12.12.1 Amount of Letter of Credit. Within 30 days following the Effective Date, Contractor shall provide to Owner a letter of credit substantially in the form of Exhibit P and in an amount equal to five percent (5%) of the Contract Price (the “Five Percent LOC”). The Five Percent LOC shall remain in full force and effect until the expiration of the Warranty Callback Period for ▇▇▇▇ ▇ ▇▇ ▇▇▇▇ ▇, whichever is later.

12.12.2 Reduction of Five Percent LOC. At the end of the two-year Warranty Callback Period for Unit 2, Contractor may reduce the amount of the Five Percent LOC to thirty-three percent (33%) of the original value of the Five Percent LOC. The remaining thirty-three percent (33%) of the initial value of the Five Percent LOC shall remain in effect until the end of the Guaranteed Catalyst Period or the Guaranteed Baglife Period, whichever is later.

12.12.3 Liquidated Damages Draws Upon the Five Percent LOC and Performance LOC. In the event that Contractor fails to pay liquidated damages pursuant to Article 22 of this Contract within 30 days of the date due under the Contract, then Owner shall be entitled to draw upon the Five Percent LOC and Performance LOC for the amount due by Contractor. In the event that Owner draws upon any LOC and it is subsequently determined that Owner was not entitled to all or any portion of the draw, Owner shall repay to Contractor the amount of any such incorrect draw, plus simple interest, from the date of Owner’s draw, at the Prime Interest Rate on the date of Owner’s draw plus two percent (2%) and reasonable costs incurred including attorney’s fees.

12.12.4 Warranty Repairs Draws Upon the Five Percent LOC. Prior to expiration of the Unit 1 or Unit 2 Warranty Callback Period, as the case may be, and all extensions of the Unit 1 or Unit 2 Warranty Callback Period, Owner shall be permitted to draw upon the Five Percent LOC, for any warranty payments due and not otherwise paid by Contractor and release the remaining amounts under the Five Percent LOC, if they have not been fully drawn down. Owner shall return the Five Percent LOC and the Performance LOC to Contractor upon their respective expiration dates subject to any extensions permitted hereunder.

ARTICLE 13

CHANGE ORDERS

13.1 Owner Initiated Change Orders. Owner, without invalidating this Contract, may order changes in the Work, with resulting changes in the Contract Price and/or the Project Schedule or other applicable provisions of the Contract Documents (including the required Final Completion Date) through the issuance of a Change Order. A Change Order signed by Owner and Contractor indicates an agreement to the changes in the Work, and/or amount of compensation increase or decrease, and/or adjustment in the Project Schedule reflected in such Change Order. Owner and Contractor shall use their good faith efforts to agree on the price for such ordered changes prior to the issuance of such Change Order. If, however, the Parties cannot agree on the adjustment to be made in the Contract Price, the Work or the Project Schedule as a result of such Change Order, then Contractor shall nevertheless proceed to execute the Work described in the Change Order promptly upon authorization from Owner and shall be paid for such changed Work in accordance with Subarticle 13.6. If the value of a proposed Change Order exceeds 15% of the Contract Price, Contractor must execute such Change Order before it is obligated to perform such Work.

Page 33

13.2 Contractor Change Requests. If Contractor would like to seek a Change Order, Contractor must give Owner written Notice within fifteen (15) Business Days after Contractor’s knowledge of the occurrence of the event giving rise to such request. Within a reasonable time thereafter, not to exceed forty five (45) Days of any such Notice, unless the circumstances of the event giving rise to the request reasonably require additional time, Contractor shall provide Owner with an appropriate statement setting forth the reasons why Contractor believes additional compensation or additional time should be granted, and include the nature of any costs to be incurred, including reasonable adjustment to other applicable Contract provisions, and if applicable, the probable length of performance that could result in a delay to the Project Critical Path (a “Contractor Change Request”). If Owner accepts any such Contractor Change Request, a Change Order shall be executed by the Parties and the Contract Price or Project Schedule, or both, as the case may be, shall be adjusted in accordance with the terms of such Change Order. Owner shall have no obligation to accept a Contractor Change Request. Failure to comply with the requirements of this Subarticle shall constitute a waiver by Contractor of any and all Contractor Change Requests not pursued in accordance with the terms herein.

13. Change Order For Delays. If a delay or suspension of Work or activities occurs and causes a delay to the Project’s Critical Path and Contractor has prepared an appropriate analysis identifying the extent of the delay, an appropriate Change Order will be issued to adjust the Project Schedule and the Contract Price as specified below:

13.3.1 Delay to Critical Path. To the extent the delay or suspension of activities causes a delay to the Critical Path of the Project Schedule and is caused by Owner or others not under the control of Contractor, or unknown subsurface conditions, the Project Schedule shall be extended and the Contract Price shall be adjusted in an amount necessary to compensate Contractor for all reasonable direct and indirect costs and expenses on the basis set forth in Subarticle 13.6 resulting from such delay or suspension (“Contractor’s Delay Costs”).

13.3.2 Delay Caused by Force Majeure. To the extent the delay or suspension is caused by Force Majeure, as that term is defined in Article 24 (excepting for purposes of Subarticle 13.3.2), Contractor shall give Owner written Notice specifying the date of commencement of such delay or suspension within ten (10) Business Days after the date on which Contractor first becomes aware of the event or act constituting the Force Majeure. The Project Schedule shall be extended on a Day-for-Day basis from the Force Majeure Delay Date. To the extent that a Force Majeure event lasts more than five (5) consecutive Days, Contractor shall be entitled to an adjustment in the Contract Price as set forth in Subarticle 24.6.

13.3.3 Best Efforts to Mitigate Delay. Contractor shall use its best efforts to re-sequence the Work and/or mitigate, to the greatest extent practicable, the effect of any delay described in this Article.

In order to receive an equitable price or schedule adjustment for a delay or deficiency for which Owner is responsible, Contractor must demonstrate that there was an actual delay in the performance of the Contractor’s Work that impacts the Project Critical Path of the Contractor Schedule and/or an actual increase in the Contractor’s costs.

13.4 Change Order for Contractor Delay or Error. To the extent the delay or suspension of the Work causes a delay to the Critical Path of the Project Schedule and is caused by Contractor or any Subcontractor, no adjustment will be made to the Contract Price or Project Schedule, and Contractor shall propose a plan to perform the changed Work while minimizing Project Schedule impacts, which may include increasing manpower and extended work hours or extra shifts if required, for Contractor to meet the required Guaranteed Completion Dates. Excess costs for such work will be Contractor’s responsibility. Further, no Change Order shall be issued and no adjustment of the Contract Price or the Project Schedule shall be made in connection with any correction of errors, omissions, deficiencies, or improper or Defective Work on the part of Contractor or any Subcontractors in the performance of the Work.

Page 34

13.5 Minor Changes in the Work. Without a Change Order, Owner and Contractor may mutually agree in writing to make, changes in the Work which do not require an adjustment in the Contract Price or an extension of the Project Schedule.

13.6 Duty to Continue the Work. In the event Owner and Contractor are unable, within twenty (20) Days of an Application for Payment to agree upon an acceptable adjustment in the Project Schedule and acceptable changes in the Contract Price, pursuant to Subarticles 13.1 or 13.2, then Contractor shall proceed with the Work following Owner’s written direction to do so; provided however, Owner reserves its rights to dispute any claims of Contractor pursuant to Article 16. Owner’s written direction shall include an equitable adjustment in the Project Schedule, if applicable. The cost of such extra Work shall then be determined on the basis of one hundred twenty percent (120%) of all verifiable direct costs reasonably and prudently incurred in the performance of the changed Work. Direct costs shall be in accordance with the Rate Schedule attached hereto as Exhibit V, submitted by Contractor on or before the Effective Date. Direct costs incurred in the performance of such extra work shall include: additional costs of materials, costs of labor, including premiums and shift differentials; social security; old age and unemployment insurance; fringe benefits required by agreement or custom; workmen’s compensation insurance; rental value of equipment and machinery; all actual and reasonably allocated costs of construction supervision and field office; and all actual and reasonable costs, if any, of shutdown, delay and start-up; provided, however, that Contractor shall notify Owner if Contractor anticipates such shutdowns, delay and start-up costs in advance. In the event Owner so directs Contractor to perform changed Work, then Contractor shall submit monthly invoices to Owner itemizing all costs incurred in the performance of such Work during the period covered by the invoice in accordance with this paragraph. Pending final determination of Contractor’s total costs, Owner shall pay such invoices on account in accordance with Article 12 of this Contract. Contractor shall maintain complete and accurate records and supporting documentation regarding Change Orders in accordance with Contractor’s established policies and procedures and generally accepted accounting practices, consistently applied. Upon three (3) Business Days prior Notice, Owner shall have access to such records during normal business hours for a period of three (3) years after Final Completion or termination of the Work, to the extent required to verify the payroll and other costs (excluding agreed-upon ▇▇▇▇-ups and rates) set forth above.

13.7 Effect of Changes in the Law. The Contract Price is based on applicable Laws in effect as of the Effective Date. After the Effective Date, if a change occurs to any Laws that affects performance of the Work by Contractor, or any Subcontractor, Contractor shall comply with such changed Laws and Contractor may be entitled to an equitable adjustment to any applicable provisions of the Contract. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event the change in Laws constitutes an event of Force Majeure for which termination of this Contract would be appropriate, the provisions of Subarticle 24.5 shall apply.

ARTICLE 15

WARRANTY OF THE WORK AND REMEDIES

15.1 General Warranty of Work. Contractor hereby warrants to Owner that:

15.1.1 The Work furnished and performed under this Contract by Contractor and any Subcontractor shall be furnished and performed to (a) Prudent Industry Practice, (b) professional standards with the accuracy, care and skill customarily employed by and expected from comparable firms in the electric generation construction industry, and (c) comply with all Laws;

Page 36

15.1.2 The Work will conform to the requirements of the Contract Documents, and will be free from Defects in materials, engineering, design, and workmanship; and

15.1.3 All Materials provided by Contractor will be new and free from Defects in materials, engineering, design, and workmanship.

15.2 Engineering and Design. Contractor hereby warrants that all engineering and design performed as part of the Work shall be performed in accordance with sound engineering practice, Prudent Industry Practice, Laws, and applicable Permits, and in conformity with the requirements of the Contract Documents.

15.3 Nonconforming Work. If Work is discovered that does not conform to the requirements of the Contract Documents prior to the end of the applicable Warranty Callback Period, Owner, Owner’s Representative, and Other Owner Authorized Parties to the extent of their authority, shall have the authority to require Contractor at Contractor’s option to reperform, repair or replace any such item of the Work (including without limitation engineering, design or supply of Materials); provided, however, that neither their authority to act under this Subarticle 15.3, nor any decision made by them in good faith either to exercise or not to exercise such authority, shall give rise to any duty or responsibility of Owner, Owner’s Representative and Other Owner Authorized Parties to Contractor, or any Subcontractor, it being understood that Owner’s (or its representatives’) failure to so require Contractor does not relieve Contractor from its responsibility under the Contract Documents and liability for any error, fault or inconsistency in the Work or the Project. Failure to so require Contractor shall not be considered as acceptance of the Work.

15.4 Standard Warranty Work. Except in the case of an Operating Emergency, if any of the Work is Defective or does not comply with the warranties contained in this Article and Owner gives Contractor Notice of such Defect, Contractor shall, at its sole expense and option, promptly correct such Defect by repair or replacement of any Defective Work. The decision to repair or replace shall be made following consultation with Owner and the repair or replacement shall be scheduled consistent with Owner’s operating requirements so as to minimize loss of production or use of any portion of the Plant to which the Work relates. Warranty Work shall be performed on a straight time basis; however, Contractor shall conduct such Warranty Work on an overtime schedule basis if Owner reasonably determines such a schedule is necessary to avoid or minimize the effects of an outage or load reduction, and Owner shall bear such additional costs. Except as stated herein, Contractor shall bear all costs and expenses associated with correcting any Defective Work and for the deductible portion of direct property damage of Owner to the extent caused by Contractor’s breach of warranty during the Warranty Remedy Period. Such costs and direct damages shall include, without limitation, the costs of necessary disassembly, transportation, reassembly, retesting, reworking, repair, or replacement of such Defective Work. Direct damages shall also include reasonable attorneys’ fees, engineering fees, the costs of testing reasonably required to verify that the repaired or replaced Work conforms to the applicable Warranties and requirements of this Contract in enforcing the provisions of Article 15. Contractor shall collect and assemble all warranties and maintenance manuals and deliver them to Owner as set forth in Exhibit L. Any repair and replacement performed by Contractor pursuant to Article 15 shall comply with the Laws, Prudent Industry Practice, and this Contract.

15.5 Operating Emergency Warranty Work. In the event of an Operating Emergency which results from Work which is Defective or does not comply with the warranties contained in Article 15, Owner shall consult with Contractor to determine who would best be able to correct the Defective Work. If the Parties agree that Contractor would best accomplish such correction, Subarticle 15.4 shall apply to such correction. If the Parties agree that Owner would best accomplish such correction, Owner shall promptly correct such Defective Work by repair or replacement of any Defective Work. The decision to repair or replace shall be made with the concurrence of Contractor. Normally, Warranty Work shall be performed on a straight time basis; however, such Warranty Work shall be performed on an overtime schedule basis if Owner reasonably determines such a schedule is necessary to avoid or minimize the effects of an outage or load reduction, and Owner shall bear such additional costs. As with Standard Warranty Work, Contractor shall bear all costs and expenses associated with correcting any Defective Work to the extent caused by Contractor’s acts or omissions. Such costs and direct damages shall include, without limitation, the costs of necessary disassembly, transportation, reassembly, retesting, reworking, repair, or replacement of such Defective Work.

15.6 Unit 1 Warranty Callback Period. The Unit 1 Warranty Callback Period for the Work shall run for a period of two (2) years from the Unit 1 Provisional Acceptance Date. If any Work shall be repaired, replaced, or otherwise corrected pursuant to this Article 15, the Unit 1 Warranty Callback Period for such Work shall be two years from the date that such repair, replacement, or correction is completed to Owner’s reasonable satisfaction. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event shall the Unit 1 Warranty Callback Period exceed three (3) years from the ▇▇▇▇ ▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Date.

Page 37

15.7 Unit 2 Warranty Callback Period. The Unit 2 Warranty Callback Period for the Work shall run for a period of two (2) years from the Unit 2 Provisional Acceptance Date. If any Work shall be repaired, replaced, or otherwise corrected pursuant to Article 15, the Unit 2 Warranty Callback Period for such Work shall be two years from the date that such repair, replacement, or correction is accepted by Owner. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event shall the Unit 2 Warranty Callback Period exceed three (3) years from the ▇▇▇▇ ▇ Provisional Acceptance Date.

15.8 Catalyst Warranty.

15.8.1 Guaranteed Catalyst Period. In addition to the above Warranties, Contractor warrants that the Catalyst used in the SCR Systems for Unit 1 and Unit 2, respectively, will not suffer a Catalyst Life Failure for a minimum of 24,000 hours (the “Guaranteed Catalyst Period”) from the date flue gas first passes through the Catalyst on each respective Unit.

15.8.2 Catalyst Life. For Catalyst Life Failure, unless such failure is caused by Owner, that occurs between 0 to 24,000 hours of operation from first gas of Unit 1 or Unit 2, as the case may be, Contractor will conduct a root cause failure evaluation. After the corrective action plan as defined by Section 15.8.3 with the Owner and Catalyst manufacturer and selecting mutually agreeable repairs or modifications, Contractor shall make indicated repairs or modifications to achieve Performance Guarantees and replace and/or add Catalyst as required if Catalyst replacement and/or addition is indicated by the root cause failure evaluation. The repairs, modifications and retesting shall follow the procedure identified in Section 15.8.3.

15.8.3 Catalyst Life Corrective Actions. Within fourteen (14) Days of a Catalyst Life Failure, Contractor shall initiate preparation of a corrective action plan complete with all drawings, data, specifications, and other information required for approval of the Work by Owner, and shall complete all such corrective action as soon as reasonably possible. For failure to meet the Guaranteed Catalyst Period, Contractor shall make all repairs and modifications necessary to correct and modify the Work to cause performance to so conform without cost to Owner. Contractor’s obligation to make repairs and modify the Work to meet the Guaranteed Catalyst Period shall not be limited by the ▇▇▇▇ ▇ or Unit 2 Warranty Callback Period but should extend only for three years from date flue gas first passes through the Catalyst on each respective Unit.

15.9 Baglife Warranty.

15.9.1 Guaranteed Baglife Period. In addition to the above Warranties, Contractor warrants that the fabric filter bags used in the Baghouse for Unit 1 or Unit 2, as the case may be, will not suffer Baglife Failure for a minimum of 25,000 hours (the “Guaranteed Baglife Period”) from the date flue gas first passes through the fabric filter bags on each respective Unit. Contractor shall provide replacement bags for all bags that suffer Baglife Failure during the Guaranteed Baglife Period and replacements will be made as Baglife Failure occurs. Owner will store bags provided by Contractor in a temperature and humidity controlled environment in accordance with the manufacturer’s written recommendations.

15.9.2 Baglife Corrective Action. Within fourteen (14) Days of any Baglife Failure, Contractor shall conduct a root cause evaluation and prepare a corrective action plan complete with all drawings, data, specifications, and other information required for approval of the Work by Owner. Contractor shall complete all such corrective action as soon as reasonably possible. For failure to meet the Guaranteed Baglife Period Contractor shall provide replacement bags suitable to cause performance to so conform without cost to Owner. Contractor’s obligation to make repairs and modifications to the Work to meet the Guaranteed Baglife Period shall not be established by the Warranty Callback Period but will extend for three years from the date flue gas first passes through each respective Baghouse.

15.9.3 Bag Pre-Coat. Contractor’s Baglife Warranty is contingent on Owner pre-coating the bags prior to first flue gas passage in accordance with Contractor’s recommendations in the O&M manual.

Page 38

15.10 Subcontractor Warranties. Contractor shall, for the protection of Contractor and Owner, obtain from all Subcontractors, and thereafter enforce, all warranties with respect to Work as are reasonably obtainable. Contractor shall use commercially reasonable efforts to secure warranties from all Subcontractors that extend for the Unit 1 Warranty Callback Period or the Unit 2 Warranty Callback Period, as the case may be, set out in Subarticles 15.6 and 15.7, respectively. Contractor agrees during the Warranty Callback Period, as soon as reasonably possible after receipt of Notice from Owner specifying any Defects, to cause the Subcontractor of such Work (or upon failure or refusal by such Subcontractor to do so itself), to inspect and to repair such Defects. All such repairs and replacements shall comply with Laws and Prudent Industry Practices. Contractor shall cause the Subcontractor of such Work (or upon failure or refusal by such Subcontractor to do so itself), to bear all costs and expenses associated with correcting any such Defective Work, including necessary disassembly, transportation, reassembly, and retesting, as well as reworking, repair, or replacement of such Work, and disassembly and reassembly of adjacent Work when necessary to give access to Defective Work. Notwithstanding the issuance of or inability to obtain any Subcontractor warranties, Contractor is responsible for the Work and compliance thereof with the requirements of the terms of the Contract Documents.

15.11 Root Cause Repairs. If chronic failure of any of the Project’s components or Materials occurs during either the Unit 1 Warranty Callback Period or the Unit 2 Warranty Callback Period (either original or as may be extended as a result of failures during the original Warranty Callback Periods), as the case may be, Contractor shall investigate the root cause of such chronic failure and make such repairs, replacements or adjustments necessary to correct the root cause of the chronic failure in accord with Subarticles 15.6 and 15.7, respectively.

15.12 Cure Rights of Owner for Breach of Warranty. Except in cases of emergency, within ten (10) Days of receipt by Contractor of Notice and adequate supporting documentation from Owner specifying a Defect, (or such additional period as is necessary in circumstances where ten (10) Days is not reasonable given the circumstances), Contractor shall give Notice to Owner of when and how Contractor shall remedy said Defect; provided, however, that in cases of emergency, Contractor shall remedy such Defect as quickly as reasonably possible under the circumstances. If Owner objects to the remedy period specified by Contractor and Contractor does not offer a substitute remedy period satisfactory to Owner, or if Contractor does not begin and diligently proceed to complete said remedy within the time period specified by Contractor and accepted by Owner, or if Contractor unreasonably fails to specify a remedy period acceptable to Owner within such ten-Day period (or immediately, in the case of emergency conditions), Owner, after Notice to Contractor, shall have the right to perform or to have performed by third parties the necessary remedy, and the reasonable and actual costs thereof shall be paid by Contractor, together with all reasonable and actual attorneys’ fees and engineering fees.

15.13 Warranty and Passage of Title. Contractor warrants that it passes good title to all Work provided pursuant to this Contract to Owner, free and clear of all Liens upon delivery to the Site. Passage of title shall not affect risk of loss, which shall be governed by Article 23.

15.14 Extent of Warranty. The Warranties provided in this Article shall not cover the effects of normal wear, tear, deterioration, or abuse of the Work. The Contractor shall have no obligation for breach of Warranty (a) if the Owner fails to store, operate or maintain the Work in accordance with Prudent Industry Practice and the provisions of any storage, operating or maintenance instructions furnished in writing by Contractor or its Subcontractors, or (b) if the Work is altered, repaired or installed by a party other than Contractor or its Subcontractors, other than emergency repairs to Contractor’s Work performed in accordance with Contractor’s operating and maintenance manuals or Prudent Industry Practice. Contractor’s Representative shall have access to test and operating records, the Work and other information he or she deems necessary to investigate the validity of a claim under this Warranty.

15.15 Warranty Disclaimer. THE EXPRESS WARRANTIES SET FORTH IN THE CONTRACT DOCUMENTS, EXCLUDING EXHIBIT A, ARE EXCLUSIVE AND IN LIEU OF ALL OTHER WARRANTIES, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION, ANY AND ALL IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.

15.16 Failure of Owner to Operate and Maintain Work. The duties, liabilities and obligations of Contractor under this Article 15 do not extend to any repairs, adjustments, alterations, or replacements of materials as a result of the failure of Owner to operate and maintain the Work in accordance with Contractor-supplied operating manuals, or which are required as a result of normal wear and tear in the operation of the Work nor to damage or wear occasioned by abrasion, corrosion, erosion or chemical attack resulting from conditions that are not within the performance conditions set forth in the Technical Specifications.

ARTICLE 16

DISPUTE RESOLUTION

16.1 Step Negotiations. The Parties shall attempt in good faith to resolve all disputes promptly by negotiation, as follows. Either Party may give the other Party written Notice of any dispute not resolved in the normal course of business. Executives of both Parties at levels one level above the Parties’ personnel who have previously been involved in the dispute shall meet at a mutually acceptable time and place within ten (10) Days after delivery of such Notice, and thereafter as often as they reasonably deem necessary, to exchange relevant information and to attempt to resolve the dispute. If the matter has not been resolved within thirty (30) Days from the referral of the dispute to senior executives, or if no meeting of senior executives has taken place within fifteen (15) Days after such referral, either Party may initiate mediation as provided hereinafter. If a Party intends to be accompanied at a meeting by an attorney, the other Party shall be given at least three (3) Business Days’ Notice of such intention and may also be accompanied by an attorney. All negotiations pursuant to this clause are confidential and shall be treated as compromise and settlement negotiations for purposes of the Federal Rules of Evidence and state rules of evidence. Each Party will bear its own costs for this dispute resolution phase.

16.2 Mediation. In the event that any dispute arising out of or relating to the Contract Documents is not resolved in accordance with the procedures set forth in Subarticle 16.1, such dispute must be submitted to mediation to ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ of MarksADR, LLC or any mutually agreed to mediator. The mediation shall take place at a neutral location near the Project Site unless otherwise agreed to by the Parties. If the mediation process has not resolved the dispute within thirty (30) Days of the mediation session or within such longer period as the Parties may agree, the dispute shall be decided by arbitration as set forth below. All negotiations pursuant to this clause are confidential and shall be treated as compromise and settlement negotiations for purpose of the Federal Rules of Evidence and state rules of evidence. Each Party will bear its own costs for this dispute resolution phase.

16.3 Arbitration. All claims, disputes and other matters in question not resolved by mediation between the Parties to this Contract arising out of or relating to the Contract Documents or the breach thereof shall be decided by arbitration by the American Arbitration Association (at a neutral location near the Project Site ) or by a mutually agreed upon arbitrator. The arbitration shall take place at a neutral location and be conducted in accordance with the American Arbitration Association Construction Industry Arbitration Rules then obtaining or a mutually agreed upon set of arbitration rules. This Contract to arbitrate and any other agreement or consent to arbitrate entered into in accordance herewith will be specifically enforceable under the prevailing arbitration law of any court having jurisdiction. Notice of demand for arbitration must be filed in writing with the other Party to this Contract and with the AAA or other mutually agreed to arbitrator. The demand must be made within a reasonable time after the dispute has arisen.

20.6 Limitation of Liability. Except only as provided in the penultimate sentence of this Subarticle 20.6, the liability of one Party to the other and its successors and assigns relating to the Work of this Contract shall not exceed in the cumulative aggregate the Contract Price (the “Total Liability Limitation”), regardless of whether any such liability may be based on contract, guarantee, indemnity (except only as provided in the last sentence of this Subarticle 20.6), warranty, tort, including negligence or gross negligence, strict liability, or otherwise, and each Party hereby releases the other Party from any liability in excess thereof.

Page 44

20.8 Applicability.

In the event either Party asserts a claim or claims against any of the other Party’s partners, shareholders, directors, officers, employees, agents, companies affiliated with such Party or their directors, officers or employees (such Persons, “Related Persons”), the aggregate recovery of the asserting Party pursuant to such claim or claims shall, except to the extent prohibited by law, be limited by the waivers and disclaimers of liability, releases from liability, limitations on liability, indemnities, and exclusive remedy provisions set forth in this Contract, even in the event of the fault, negligence (in whole or in part), strict liability, or other basis of liability of any of the Related Persons.

Contractor shall maintain all books and records for the Project as required by Law but in no event less than three (3) years.

20.10 Insolvency of Owner. The Owner’s insolvency shall constitute an Owner event of default. Upon the occurrence of an Owner event of default, Contractor shall provide Notice of such default and demand cure of the same within thirty (30) days of the date of Notice. If the event of default is not cured within the 30-day period, Contractor may with fifteen (15) days prior written Notice, suspend performance of the Work.

21.1 Scheduling of Performance Testing. At least sixty (60) Days prior to the time Contractor believes that the Work is ready for Performance Testing as set forth in Exhibit E, Contractor shall provide Notice to Owner of the estimated date to begin the Performance Tests identified in the Contract Documents. The Performance Testing shall not be postponed more than nine (9) months from the date of Provisional Acceptance. If Performance Testing is not conducted within nine (9) months from the Guaranteed Unit 1 Provisional Acceptance Date or the Guaranteed ▇▇▇▇ ▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Date, as applicable, due to no fault of Contractor, the Performance Testing shall be deemed to have been achieved If Performance Testing has not been completed by Owner prior to the Guaranteed ▇▇▇▇ ▇ Substantial Completion Date or the Guaranteed Unit 2 Substantial Completion Date B, as the case may be, due to no fault of Contractor, then Owner will pay Contractor the payment due for achieving Unit 1 Substantial Completion or ▇▇▇▇ ▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇ as if Substantial Completion for the Unit had been achieved. However, by making such payment, Owner does not waive its right to dispute Contractor’s entitlement to such payment if, once the Performance Tests have been performed, such Performance Tests demonstrate that the Work does not meet the Performance Guarantees in Exhibit S.

21.2 Achievement of Performance Guarantees. If the Performance Tests demonstrate that the Work meets the Performance Guarantees as set forth in Exhibit S, the Work shall be accepted by Owner for ▇▇▇▇ ▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇ ▇▇▇▇ ▇ Substantial Completion B, as the case may be. Upon Provisional Acceptance of each Unit, Owner shall assume operational control of the Unit. Contractor may continue to work to complete the Work at the scheduling of Owner and without interfering with Owner’s needs to supply power.

21.3 Failure of Performance Tests. Within six (6) weeks of completion of failed Performance Testing, to the extent such failure is attributable to Contractor, Contractor must submit a corrective action plan to address Contractor’s portion of the failed Performance Testing complete with all drawings, data, specifications, and other information required for approval of the Work by Owner and shall complete all such corrective action as soon as reasonably possible to meet the Performance Guarantees. Following completion of the corrective action, Performance Testing of the Units shall be repeated, at Owner’s expense, to determine if the Work as so corrected complies with the Performance Guarantees.

21.4 Retainage for Punchlist Items. For any outstanding Punchlist items that remain on the Punchlist following ▇▇▇▇ ▇ Substantial Completion B, Owner shall retain one and one-half times the monetized value of the Punchlist from the final payment.

LIQUIDATED DAMAGES

22.1 Performance Guarantees. The principal Unit 2 Boiler and Units 1 and 2 AQC Systems performance features with specific performance guarantees by Contractor are listed in Exhibit S. Contractor guarantees that if the Boiler, AQC and SCR Systems are operated and tested as provided in Exhibit S, they will each perform in accordance with the guaranteed performance data stipulated in the Technical Specifications utilizing performance fuel.

22.2 Liquidated Damages For Failure to Meet Performance Guarantees. The amount of liquidated damages payable to Owner in the event that Contractor is unable to satisfy the Performance Guarantees as set forth in Exhibit S. Performance Guarantees and associated liquidated damages, if applicable, for ▇▇▇▇ ▇ ▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇ ▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇ the same unless otherwise indicated. The Parties agree that certain Performance Guarantees for Unit 1 or Unit 2 for which the payment of liquidated damages shall be an acceptable remedy for failure to satisfy the applicable Performance Guarantees.

22.3 Liquidated Damages For Delay and Failure to Meet Schedule. The applicable liquidated damages are more fully described in Exhibit S.

22.4 Liquidated Damages Exclusive Remedy. Payment of liquidated damages by Contractor to Owner shall be Owner’s sole and exclusive remedy and Contractor’s sole liability for delay. Additionally, after Contractor achieves Provisional Acceptance for each respective Unit, Contractor’s payment of the applicable amount of liquidated damages with respect of the limited range of deviation from the Performance Guarantees shall constitute the sole and exclusive remedy by Owner and the sole liability of Contractor to Owner for Contractor’s failure to achieve a percentage of the Performance Guarantee. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Contractor’s obligation to pay liquidated damages to Owner shall not affect, waive, or otherwise modify Contractor’s warranty obligations to Owner.

22.5 No Liquidated Damages for Owner Delay. If no bonus is agreed upon by the Parties pursuant to Section 12.2, Contractor shall have no liability for liquidated damages for any delay in achieving ▇▇▇▇ ▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, if, after the Guaranteed ▇▇▇▇ ▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Date, the period of time the Unit is not operating for reasons other than Contractor’s delay, including but not limited to delay by Owner or Owner’s other contractors including the turbine installation contractor and balance of Plant contractor. However, if the Parties are able to agree on a bonus, then Contractor will be liable for Liquidated Damages for delay in accordance with the Contract Documents.

22.6 Liquidated Damages Reasonable. It is understood and agreed between Contractor and Owner that: (a) Contractor’s failure to meet the Guaranteed ▇▇▇▇ ▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Date and the Guaranteed ▇▇▇▇ ▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ as set forth in Exhibit E, will cause Owner to suffer substantial damages; (b) Owner’s loss from failure to achieve ▇▇▇▇ ▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ on or before the Guaranteed ▇▇▇▇ ▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇ ▇ Provisional Acceptance by the Guaranteed ▇▇▇▇ ▇ Provisional Acceptance Date, or failure of the Work to comply with any of the Performance Guarantees would be uncertain and impossible to determine or quantify with precision; (c) the provisions set forth in this Section both limit the liability of Contractor and establish agreed compensation and damages; (d) such provisions represent a reasonable endeavor on the part of Contractor and Owner to estimate fair and reasonable compensation for the foreseeable damages from each of the potential events for which liquidated damages are provided in Exhibit S; and (e) subject to the limitations on liquidated damages contained in this Article and Exhibit S, such liquidated damages are cumulative.

ARTICLE 23

RISK OF LOSS

Care, custody, and control of the Work and full risk of loss shall pass to Owner upon the earlier to occur of Provisional Acceptance of each Unit, or Termination or as agreed by the Parties the (“Care, Custody and Control Date”). Owner shall assume the risk of physical loss or damage to the applicable portion of the Work or the Plant from and after the Care, Custody and Control Date; provided, however, Contractor shall remain liable for deductibles under Owner’s insurance policies for loss or damages to the extent caused by fault, including negligence, of Contractor to the extent of Contractor’s or its Subcontractors’ acts or omissions. Owner shall waive its rights of subrogation against Contractor and Subcontractors for loss or damage incurred from and after the Care, Custody and Control Date that may be covered under Owner’s insurance and hereby releases Contractor and Subcontractors for such liability to the extent of recoveries from Owner’s insurance.

It is understood and agreed that the settlement of strikes, walkouts, lockouts or other labor disputes shall be entirely within the discretion of the Party experiencing such action. Owner may direct Contractor, at Contractor’s costs, to take reasonable steps to resolve any strike, walkout, lockout or other labor dispute and procure Materials or labor from other sources so as to minimize adverse impact on the Project.

24.4 Burden of Proof. If the Parties are unable in good faith to agree that a Force Majeure event has occurred, the Party claiming a Force Majeure event shall have the burden of proof as to whether such Force Majeure event (a) has occurred, (b) was not a result of such Party’s, its agents’ or subcontractor’s acts or omissions, and (c) could not have been avoided by due diligence or the use of reasonable efforts of such Party or its agents.

24.5 Termination for Force Majeure Delay.
