The allowable tolerances for precision of measurement shall for all purposes of this Process Guarantee Deed be determined in accordance with reasonable methods and tolerances and generally accepted practices. No Performance Liquidated Damages are payable to Licencee unless the actual measurements taken during the Guarantee Test fall outside this tolerance.

Page 45 of 61

ARTICLE 4. GUARANTEE TEST

4.1

Licencee shall advise Licensor in writing approximately 90 days prior to the expected date of the Mechanical Completion of the Licenced Facility to allow Licensor representative(s) an opportunity to review the Licenced Facility and advise Licencee of [any modifications required to conform with Licensor’s information, specifications, and design and with the use of good engineering practices]. Licensor will conduct such pre-commissioning and commissioning reviews in accordance with the Technical Services Agreement. Based on the results of these reviews, the parties hereto will mutually agree upon the need for further reviews.

4.2

When Licencee desires to conduct a Guarantee Test as defined in Section 5.1, Licensor shall be so advised with at least 30 days written notice to allow Licensor to send representative(s) to oversee the Guarantee Test. After arriving at the Licenced Facility, the Licensor representative(s) shall be allowed up to 15 days with the Licenced Facility in operation to check the Licenced Facility and advise Licencee of the readiness for the Guarantee Test or modifications required to conform with [Licensor’s information, specifications, design and with the use of good engineering practices.] Licensor representatives will perform such services, and the witness of the Guarantee Test, in accordance with the Technical Services Agreement.

4.3

In the event that the Guarantee Test run is unsatisfactory and does not meet the Performance Guarantees due to a fault in the Licensor Performance Guarantee Responsibility, as defined in Paragraph 5.2, then corrective action will be taken in accordance with Paragraph 5.2 and Licensor or Licencee may request a repeat test. In the event that a Guarantee Test demonstrates that the Performance Guarantees have not been achieved for reasons other than a fault in the Licensor Performance Guarantee Responsibility, Licencee may take the appropriate corrective action and may then undertake a repeat test in accordance with the original Guarantee Test procedure described in Paragraph 4.2

4.4

A repeat Guarantee Test shall be performed as soon as possible after completion of the correctives actions resulting from the unsatisfactory test. If repeat tests are required due to a fault in the Licensor Performance Guarantee Responsibility, all costs and expenses related to Licensor personnel involved in the repeat test will be borne by Licensor.

Page 46 of 61

ARTICLE 5. SATISFACTION OF GUARANTEE

5.1

[The Performance Guarantee test shall be considered to have been successfully completed and satisfied if during a test run of *** (***) continuous hours the Licenced Facility shall have produced hydrogen plus carbon monoxide plus methane at an average rate and within the tolerance of the guaranteed performance figures set forth in Paragraph 2.1 (“Guarantee Test”).] A test run that is interrupted may, upon the mutual agreement of Licensor and Licencee and for the purpose of this Performance Guarantee Deed, be considered a Guarantee Test.

5.2

In the event that during a Guarantee Test the Licenced Facility is found to have not met any one of the Performance Guarantees set forth in Paragraph 2.1, and if such failure is not due to any of the qualifications detailed in Paragraph 3.1, Licensor may, in such manner as Licencee will recommend or approve, modify the Licenced Facility by (i) installing additional equipment, or (ii) modifying existing equipment, for the purpose of repeating the Guarantee Test. Licensor will affect these modifications at its cost. Subsequent Guarantee Tests may be undertaken only two (2) times. If after two (2) repeat attempts to meet the guaranteed performance figures set forth in Paragraph 2.1, the Licenced Facility still does not meet the Performance Guarantees, and if such failure is not due to any of the qualifications detailed in Paragraph 3.1, the Performance Liquidated Damages in Paragraph 6.3 shall be applied.

5.3

It is understood and agreed that a failure to complete and satisfy the Guarantee Test due solely to a mechanical defect or deficiency in any mechanical component of the Licenced Facility including without limitation pumps, exchangers, coolers, instruments, flanges, valves, and piping, shall not be considered an Licensor Performance Guarantee Responsibility, for the purposes of Paragraph 5.2, unless directed to be used by the Licensor. The parties hereto agree that the relevant Guarantee Test shall be re-performed as soon as the mechanical deficiency in question has been remedied and that such re-performance shall not constitute a repeat test. Nothing in this Paragraph 5.3 shall extend the period for completion of the Guarantee Test set forth in Paragraph 5.4.

5.4

It is intended by both Licencee and Licensor that the Guarantee Test, including subsequent repeat tests, shall be completed within eighteen (18) months after the Start-up Date. If the Guarantee Test fails due to a fault in the Licensor Performance Guarantee Responsibility or the Guarantee Test or any required repeat tests are delayed due solely to the action or failure to act of Licensor then the Licensor must pay the Performance Liquidated Damages to the Licencee.

5.5

Licencee shall have the right at any time to waive in writing any and all guarantees given herein and relieve Licensor of its obligations under this Performance Guarantee Deed.

Page 47 of 61

ARTICLE 6. FINANCIAL ARRANGEMENTS AND PERFORMANCE LIQUIDATED DAMAGES

6.1

Where equipment installations or modifications as provided for in Paragraph 5.2 are made, promptly after such installations or modifications have been completed and upon receipt by Licensor of invoices, together with such supporting evidence as Licensor may reasonably request, Licensor will reimburse the cost of such installations or modifications.

6.2

In the event the Licenced Facility has failed the Guarantee Test and the two (2) repeat tests, Licensor shall be obligated to pay Licencee the Performance Liquidated Damages being an amount related to the value of the entire scope of supply by Licensor to Licensee under this Agreement, the PDP and the ESA, and capped at [$US XXMM]. Payment of such Liquidated Damages shall be further defined in detail prior to execution of ESA

6.3

The parties agree that the Performance Liquidated Damages is a genuine, fair and reasonable pre-estimate of the damages likely to be sustained by the Licencee as a result of the Licensor's failure to achieve the Performance Guarantees.

6.4

If the Performance Liquidated Damages is found for any reason to be void, invalid or otherwise inoperative so as to disentitle the Licencee from claiming the Performance Liquidated Damages, the Licencee is entitled to claim against the Licensor for damages at law for failure to achieve the Performance Guarantees, provided that such damages at law shall not exceed the amount payable by the Licensor to the Licencee if the Performance Liquidated Damages had been enforceable by the Licencee.

ARTICLE 7. TERMINATION

7.1

This Performance Guarantee Deed and all obligations hereunder shall terminate upon the earliest of the following:

Satisfaction of guarantee in accordance with Paragraphs 5.1, 5.4, or 6.1; or

Application of performance penalties in accordance with Paragraph 5.2, which may include payment of performance penalties or satisfaction of any other financial arrangement made by Licensor and Licencee in lieu of said performance penalties in accordance with Paragraph 6.3; or
