supplies furnished by the Contractor, Subcontractors or their agents which are
being shipped to the Site, incorporated in the Works or in storage at the Site, shall
pass free and clear of any and all liens, claims, security interests or other
encumbrances. Notwithstanding transfer of title or ownership, risk of loss and
damage shall be as stated in Article 17.
8.2 Time for Completion - The Contractor shall, if the Commencement Date
has occurred, use its best efforts to achieve the Taking-Over Date on or
before the Scheduled Taking-Over Date. The Contractor guarantees that
the Performance Certificate will be issued no later than ninety (90) Days
after the Taking-Over Date. If the Taking-Over Date does not occur on or
before the Scheduled Taking-Over Date, then the Contractor shall, within
fifteen (15) Days of Scheduled Taking-Over Date, submit to Owner a
detailed technical and narrative analysis of the root causes that prevented
the achievement of the Taking-Over Date and a detailed plan (the
44
DocuSign Envelope ID: 6E44579D-052C-4056-8E65-B52CD00535CD
“Remedial Plan”) designating the new expected date for the Taking-Over
Date and setting out the technical steps necessary for such.
8.3 Extension of Time for Completion - The Contractor may apply for an
extension of the Time for Completion only if the Works are delayed by any
of the following causes:
(h) if the Contractor suffers delays and/or incurs in costs due to failure on
Owner part to remove any Dangerous Substance and Fossils in
accordance with Section 4.18 and/or 4.23;
45
DocuSign Envelope ID: 6E44579D-052C-4056-8E65-B52CD00535CD
The Contractor is expressly precluded from any extension of the Time for
Completion for any circumstance not specified above in this Section.
The Contractor shall be entitled to an extension of the Time for Completion by the
period the Contractor is delayed by one of the events identified in subparagraphs
of this Section above, provided:
(b) the delay is on both the critical path of the Baseline Project Schedule
and the current Works or Preliminary Works schedule, as applicable
under the circumstances, and is beyond the control of the Contractor or
its Subcontractors after taking adequate measures at their own expense
to prevent and thereafter curtail and eliminate and the delay;
In the event of a concurrent delay under item (c) above, the period of such
concurrent delay shall be deducted from the period the Contractor would
otherwise be entitled to receive as an extension under this Section. If the
Contractor intends to apply for an extension of the Time for Completion under its
entitlement above, the Contractor must give notice to Owner’s Representative of
such intention as soon as possible and in any event within seven (7) Days of the
start of the event giving rise to the delay, together with any other notice required
by this Contract and relevant to such cause. The Contractor is further required to
submit to Owner, as part of its request for an extension of the Time for
Completion, an acceleration schedule to demonstrate how such delay can be
overcome. The Contractor shall keep such contemporary records as may be
necessary to substantiate any application, either on the Site or at another location
acceptable to Owner’s Representative, and such other records as may be requested
by Owner’s Representative. The Contractor shall permit Owner’s Representative
to inspect all such records and shall provide Owner’s Representative with copies
as required. Within fourteen (14) Days of the notice of delay, the Contractor shall
submit full supporting details of his application, including, without limitation, a
critical path analysis of the alleged delay reflecting the considerations set forth in
this Section. If the Contractor cannot submit all relevant details within such
period because the cause of delay continued for a period exceeding seven (7)
Days, the Contractor shall submit interim details at intervals of not more than
twenty-eight (28) Days (from the first Day of such delay) and full and final
supporting details of his application within twenty-one (21) Days of the last Day
46
DocuSign Envelope ID: 6E44579D-052C-4056-8E65-B52CD00535CD
8.4 Rate of Progress - If at any time the Contractor’s actual progress falls
behind the Baseline Project Schedule, or it becomes apparent that it will so
fall behind Schedule, the Contractor shall within five (5) Days submit to
Owner’s Representative a revised project schedule taking into account the
prevailing circumstances. For the avoidance of doubt, the Baseline Project
Schedule shall never change except by means of a Variation. The
Contractor shall, at the same time, notify Owner’s Representative of the
steps being taken to expedite progress, so as to achieve the Taking-Over
Date within the Time for Completion. If the delay is caused by the
Contractor and is not entitled to a Variation under another section of this
Contract, the costs of implementing such steps or of revising the schedule
as herein noted, shall be solely for the Contractor’s account. If the delay is
caused by a third party the Contractor shall not bear the cost of
implementing steps or of revising the project schedule and shall be entitled
to a Variation and an extension of Time for Completion or Scheduled
Acceptance Date (if the Scheduled Preliminary Works Acceptance Date is
applicable). If any steps taken by the Contractor in meeting its obligations
under this Section cause Owner to incur additional costs that can be
justified or demonstrated, such costs shall be recoverable from the
Contractor by Owner, and may be deducted by Owner from any monies
due, or to become due, to the Contractor If the Contractor falls behind
milestones identified in the Baseline Project Schedule so as to delay
achieving the Taking-Over Date by the Scheduled Taking-Over Date or the
Preliminary Works Acceptance Date by the Preliminary Works Scheduled
Acceptance Date, except to the extent the Contractor is entitled hereunder
to an extension of Time for Completion, the Contractor shall, upon written
notice by Owner’s Representative and at no additional cost to Owner,
develop and submit to Owner a detailed written recovery plan and schedule
and work such hours (including night shifts, weekends and holidays) and
furnish such additional labor and equipment as necessary to overcome the
effects of such delay.
47
DocuSign Envelope ID: 6E44579D-052C-4056-8E65-B52CD00535CD
8.5 Liquidated Damages for Delay - If the Taking-Over Date is later than the
Scheduled Taking-Over Date, Owner will suffer substantial damages which
are difficult to accurately specify and ascertain. In such event, the
Contractor shall pay Owner liquidated damages in the amount of
(US$50,000) per Day for each Day that the Taking-Over Date is delayed
beyond the Scheduled Taking-Over Date up to a maximum the product of
the Domestic Contract Price multiplied by 0.1. The damages provided in
this Section shall be in lieu of all liability for any and all extra costs, losses
or expenses of whatsoever nature incurred or to be incurred by the Owner
as a result of any delay in achieving the Taking-Over Date. The forgoing
liquidated damages shall be paid from time to time as demanded by Owner
in writing and if not paid within twenty (20) Days of written demand, and if
no so paid on demand, may be collected by Owner from any amount then
owed to the Contractor. These liquidated damages are a reasonable
forecast of the actual costs, losses and expenses Owner will incur as a
result of delays to achieving the Taking-Over Date by the Scheduled
Taking-Over Date therefor (which are difficult to calculate precisely) and
do not constitute a penalty. The parties, having equal bargaining power
and having bargained in good faith for such specific damages waive their
right to contest the validity or enforceability of such liquidated damages.
The payment or deduction of such liquidated damages shall not relieve the
Contractor from its obligation to complete the Works and achieve the
Performance Criteria, remedy any defects or deficiencies or from any other
of its duties, obligations or responsibilities under this Contract.
8.6 Suspension of Work - Owner may at any time instruct the Contractor in
writing to slow or suspend progress of part or all of the Works. During
suspension or slowing, the Contractor shall continue to guard, protect, store
and secure such part of the Works against any deterioration, loss or damage
at Owner’s expense. Promptly upon providing the Contractor with written
instruction regarding the slowing or suspension, Owner shall meet with the
Contractor to review the progress of the completed Works and the status of
Works that are in progress. In addition, Owner and the Contractor shall
meet to review the advantages and disadvantages of having the Contractor
complete during the suspension period certain Works that are in progress.
The Contractor shall follow Owner’s written instructions with respect to
performing Works during any slowing or suspension and the Contractor
shall be paid for such Works in accordance with the Schedule of Milestone
Payments (Schedule 2) as reasonably reduced to take into account such
slowing or the suspension.
48
DocuSign Envelope ID: 6E44579D-052C-4056-8E65-B52CD00535CD
(a) any extension of the Time for Completion or the extension of the
Scheduled Acceptance Date to which the Contractor is entitled under
Section 8.3; and
(b) the amount of such Cost plus Profit thereon which shall be added to
the Domestic Contract Price and shall notify the Contractor
accordingly.
The Contractor shall not be entitled to such extension and payment of Cost if the
suspension is due to a cause attributable to the Contractor. The Contractor shall
not be entitled to extension of Time for Completion, or payment of the Costs
incurred in, making good any deterioration, defect or loss caused by faulty design,
workmanship or materials, or by the Contractor’s failure to take the measures
specified in Section 8.6.
49
DocuSign Envelope ID: 6E44579D-052C-4056-8E65-B52CD00535CD
9.3 Punch List - The Taking-Over Date shall not occur until the Works have
been completed provided that if any Works have not been completed the
Contractor may propose a Punch List for items that the Contractor desires
to complete after the Taking-Over Date. The items on such list shall be
limited to completion of insulation, painting, final cleanup, final grading
and any other portion of the Works which do not constitute defects or
deficiencies and which do not affect the operability, designed capacity,
safety or mechanical and electrical integrity of the Works. The Contractor
shall provide it to Owner and Owner’s Representative together with an
estimate of the cost and time to complete and/or correct each proposed
Punch List item. Owner’s Representative shall notify the Contractor
whether it accepts such Punch List and estimate or shall otherwise state its
reasons for disagreement therewith in reasonable detail; provided, however,
that acceptance or rejection thereof shall not relieve the Contractor of its
liability to complete or correct the proposed Punch List items. Owner may
withhold from amounts otherwise payable hereunder an amount equal to
one hundred fifty percent (150%) of the estimated value of each agreed
Punch List item until the Contractor has completed that item. If the
Contractor fails to complete any approved Punch List item within ninety
(90) Days of the date that the Owner has agreed that the item may be
placed on the Punch List, Owner may complete, or cause to be completed,
any item which the Contractor has so failed to complete at the Contractor’s
expense including third party costs and costs of Owner for such item. For
the avoidance of doubt the Owner is not obligated to agree to place any
item on the Punch List in which case such item must be completed in order
for the Taking-Over Date to be achieved.
9.4 Conduct of Tests - Guidelines for the conduct of Tests are set forth in the
Project Functional Specification. No later than ninety (90) Days prior to
the commencement of the Performance Tests, the Contractor will submit to
the Representatives its proposed detailed testing procedures (the “Test
Procedures”) for the conduct of Performance Tests. The Test Procedures
shall be in accordance with the Project Functional Specification. The
Representatives will review and respond to the Contractor’s proposed Test
Procedures within thirty (30) days of the submission, and the Parties and
the Representatives shall meet to finalize the Test Procedures within five
(5) Days of the Representatives’ response. The Contractor will submit the
final version of the Test Procedures to the Representatives not more than
fifteen (15) Days prior to the commencement of the Performance Test. The
Contractor shall use Facility instrumentation and non- Facility

51
DocuSign Envelope ID: 6E44579D-052C-4056-8E65-B52CD00535CD
Contractor shall pay the Buy-Down Amount to Owner within thirty (30) Days
after it is incurred pursuant to the terms of this Contract. The Parties agree that it
would be extremely difficult to precisely determine the amount of actual lost
revenue damages that would be suffered due to a failure of the Facility to achieve
the Performance Criteria once the Taking-Over Date has been achieved, but that
the Buy-Down Amount is a fair and reasonable determination of the amount of
actual lost revenue damages which would be suffered by Owner, and that the
Buy-Down Amount does not constitute a penalty. The Parties agree that the Buy-
Down Amount constitutes liquidated damages to compensate Owner for the losses
it is likely to suffer or damages it is likely to incur as a result of the Contractor’s
failure to achieve the Performance Criteria, and such Buy-Down Amount shall be
in lieu of all liability for any and all extra costs, losses, or expenses incurred by
Owner as a result of the Contractor’s failure to achieve the Performance Criteria
once the Taking-Over Date has been achieved. These liquidated damages are a
reasonable forecast of the actual costs, losses and expenses Owner will incur as a
result of such Contractor’s failure and do not constitute a penalty. The Parties,
having bargained in good faith for such specific damages, are estopped from
contesting the validity or enforceability of such damages. If the Buy-Down
Amount is not paid on demand, Owner may withhold such sums from any amount
then owed to the Contractor, or resort to any other remedy available to it in law or
equity for the recovery of the Buy-Down Amount.
9.7 Owner Testing - Contractor acknowledges and agrees that from time to
time Owner, or its designee, may perform tests on the Facility and that the
performance of such tests shall not void any warranties hereunder.
Contractor further acknowledges and agrees that the results of such tests
may not be used to either determine or demonstrate Contractor’s
performance hereunder.
52
DocuSign Envelope ID: 6E44579D-052C-4056-8E65-B52CD00535CD
9.8 Retesting - If the Works fail to pass any Tests, Sections 7.4 and 7.5 shall
apply, and Owner’s Representative or the Contractor may require such
failed Tests to be repeated under the same terms and conditions.
9.10 Early Operation - If the Taking-Over Date does not occur by the
Scheduled Taking-Over Date, Owner may, at its sole option, place the
Facility or any part thereof into service at any time. Such placement into
service shall not be deemed to be the Taking-Over Date but one half (1/2)
of the Milestone Payment due upon the Taking-Over Date shall be paid to
the Contractor and the other half shall be paid upon the achievement of the
Taking-Over Date by the Contractor. The Contractor shall cooperate with
Owner and allow Owner sufficient access to the Facility so that it may
operate the Facility. The Contractor shall not be relieved from any of its
obligations hereunder (including achieving the Performance Criteria and
completing all Works). Once Owner is operating the Facility, care, custody
and control thereof shall pass to Owner and Owner shall thereby bear the
associated risk of loss. Owner will act reasonably in allowing the
Contractor continued access to the Facility to fulfill its obligations with
relation to achieving the Performance Criteria and completing all Works.
To the extent that Owner’s exercise of any of its rights hereunder:
X. TAKING-OVER
10.1 Taking-Over - The Works shall be taken over by Owner when they have
been completed in accordance with this Contract (except as described in the
Punch List, if such has been agreed in accordance with Section 9.3) and the
Taking-Over Certificate has been countersigned by the Owner. If the
Commencement Date has not occurred, the Preliminary Works shall be
accepted by Owner when they have been completed and the Preliminary
Works Acceptance Certificate has been countersigned by the Owner (the
date of such signature, the “Preliminary Works Acceptance Date”).

prevent any Person under the direction of the Contractor from creating
any nuisance or interference, whether public or private, which might
give rise to any legal action;
54
DocuSign Envelope ID: 6E44579D-052C-4056-8E65-B52CD00535CD
(h) the Applicable Laws of Peru in effect on the Effective Date and all
Applicable Laws in existence on the Effective Date that, by their
terms, are effective and applicable to the Contractor or the Works to be
performed by Contractor as of the Effective Date, have been taken into
account in its calculation of the Domestic Contract Price and shall be
reflected in the design of the Facility and the Works; and
12.1 Warranty - The Contractor warrants for the Warranty Period that the
Construction Documents, Works, Facility and its services hereunder shall
be free from defects, errors, omissions, and deficiencies and that shall be
new and unused when installed and be fit for its and their intended purpose.
The Contractor warrants that:
(a) the Works will be performed in accordance with the standards and

warranties hereunder, Contractor shall also, for the benefit of Owner, obtain from
all Subcontractors the best warranties and guarantees available for the Equipment
and services provided by such Subcontractors, and Contractor shall promptly
provide notice to Owner regarding the terms and conditions of such warranties
and guarantees. Following the expiration of the Warranty Period, Contractor shall
assign to Owner or otherwise procure for Owner the right to proceed directly
against any Subcontractor under such warranties or guarantees. Contractor shall
promptly deliver to Owner copies of all warranties and guarantees received from
Subcontractors which must expressly acknowledge Owner’s rights hereunder to
so proceed. If the Commencement Date has not occurred the “Warranty Period”
55
DocuSign Envelope ID: 6E44579D-052C-4056-8E65-B52CD00535CD
means the period from the Preliminary Works Acceptance Date to the date which
is 730 Days after the Preliminary Works Acceptance Date and this Article 12
shall only cover the Preliminary Works.
12.2 Cost of Remedying Defects - All work referred to in Section 12.1 shall be
executed by the Contractor at its own cost. All costs incidental to the
Contractor’s performance of its obligations, including the removal,
replacement and reinstallation of materials and equipment were part of the
Works necessary to gain access to defects and retesting of repaired or
replaced portions of the Works (if appropriate in accordance with industry
standards) shall be borne by the Contractor. Any duties or taxes assessable
for the importation of items required to meet the Contractor’s obligations
herein shall also be borne by the Contractor.
12.3 Extension of Warranty Period - Any portion of the Works, including the
Overseas Works, repaired or replaced by the Contractor shall be warranted
by the Contractor and the Warranty Period in respect of such portion of the
Works shall be extended for a period of one (l) year from the date of
completion of such repair or replacement. However, the total Warranty
Period shall not exceed a maximum two (2) years from the Taking-Over
Date.
12.4 Failure to Remedy Defects - If the Contractor fails to remedy any defect
or deficiency within a reasonable time, taking account the defect magnitude
and the prudent Electrical Practices then the Owner may at its sole
discretion:
(a) carry out the work itself or though others at the Contractor’s risk and
cost, the costs properly incurred by Owner in remedying such shall be
recoverable from the Contractor by Owner and may be deducted from
the Contract Price or taken from the Performance Security; or
The Parties agree that if Prudent Electrical Practices dictate that the
Facility be de-rated or taken out of service for as a result of a defect or
deficiency for more than one day while the Contractor awaits parts or
services before commencing warranty Works then the Owner may
make arrangements to rent the necessary equipment at the Contractor’s
expense in order to minimize or eliminate such derating or outage.
56
DocuSign Envelope ID: 6E44579D-052C-4056-8E65-B52CD00535CD
12.6 Further Tests - If the remedying of any defect or damage is such that it
may affect the performance of the Works, Owner may require that the
related portion of Tests on Completion be repeated to the extent necessary
to demonstrate that the defect has been remediated. The requirement shall
be made by written notice within twenty-eight (28) Days after the defect or
damage is remedied. Such Tests on Completion shall be carried out in
accordance with Article 9 utilizing Facility instrumentation and at the cost
of the Contractor.
12.9 Forced Outages - The Contractor agrees that, after the Taking-Over Date
until the Performance Tests are successfully concluded, the transmission
line portion of the Facility shall have no Forced Outage Hours (the “Forced
Outage Hours Guaranty”). If the Contractor has not been liable to pay the
full Buy-Down Amount and during such period the transmission line
portion of the Facility has Forced Outage Hours in excess of 2 hours in any
year, the Contractor must immediately pay to the Owner liquidated
damages in the amount of 2000 USD per hour for each hour in excess of
Forced Outage Hours in each such year (“Forced Outage Hours Liquidated
Damages”) up to a maximum of any portion of the Buy-Down Amount that
remained available after the Buy-Down Amount, if any, was paid, subject
to the following conditions. “Forced Outage Hour” is any hour in which
occurs an interruption or reduction of the transmission capacity of the
transmission line of the Facility that is not due to (a) a Forced Majeure;
(b) COES or the substation owner; or (c) the act or omission of any non-
Contractor Person which is not in accordance with the Contractor’s
instruction manuals or Prudent Electrical Industry Practices.
13.1.1. The Domestic Contract Price- The Domestic Contract Price shall be the
full and sole compensation of the Contractor for all its services and
obligations hereunder (and for the avoidance of doubt includes the
Preliminary Works Payment Amount which is a portion thereof. The

applicable to, measured by, or imposed upon the Contractor as a result of the transactions
hereunder.
Other Taxes - The Contractor shall register with the appropriate taxing authorities in the
Country. The Contractor shall fully inform himself of all tax regulations in the Country.
Contractor shall be responsible for the payment of all and Owner shall have no obligation to

in effect) or imposed by any other country or by any political subdivision or taxing authority or
agency of any thereof on or with respect to any payments made by Owner to Contractor pursuant
to the terms of this Contract.
Owner’s Right to Withhold: Tax Certificates - With respect to payment for any services
provided hereunder by the Contractor, Owner may withhold or deduct from the payment of any
amount otherwise payable to the Contractor under this Contract as Owner may be required to
withhold or deduct under the laws of the Country or any other country or political subdivision or
taxing authority or agency thereof, and Owner shall promptly furnish the Contractor with
appropriate tax certificates/receipts of all sums so withheld or deducted.
13.3 Owner’s Right to Withhold and/or Set Off Payment - Owner shall have
the right to set-off from monies and securities otherwise due to the
Contractor any claims or charges that Owner has against the Contractor
under this Contract. Such claims or charges may include, but are not
limited to, costs incurred by Owner as a result of the Contractor’s failure to
perform Works, the remedying of defects or deficiencies, payment of back
charges, payment of the Buy-Down Amount and the payment of liquidated
damages set forth in this Contract. The Contractor shall notify Owner’s
Representative in writing of all claims against it or its Subcontractors in
excess of seventy-five thousand dollars (US$75,000) and promptly pay any
undisputed claims of any and all Subcontractors. The obligation of Owner
to make any payment to the Contractor required hereunder shall be subject
to the right of Owner to withhold an amount equal to the amount of any
outstanding claims or charges against the Contractor as hereinabove
provided for.
XIV. VARIATIONS
14.1 Right to Vary - Variations may be initiated by Owner any time prior to the
Taking-Over Date, either by instruction or by a request for the Contractor
to submit a proposal. Such a Variation may provide for a change in,
addition to, or deletion from the Works, including but not limited to
changes:
60
DocuSign Envelope ID: 6E44579D-052C-4056-8E65-B52CD00535CD
If the Construction Documents or Works are not in accordance with this Contract,
any rectification thereof shall not entitle the Contractor to a Variation. In the
event of any Variation or request by Owner for a proposal for a Variation, the
Contractor shall promptly provide such information as Owner may request.
Development of or refinements to the Construction Documents shall not entitle
the Contractor to a Variation. Except as otherwise provided in a Variation, no
order, statement, or conduct of Owner shall constitute a change to this Contract
nor entitle the Contractor to an adjustment to the Domestic Contract Price.
(d) a statement whether and the extent to which, in its opinion, the
proposed Variation would, notwithstanding the exercise of all due skill
and care, result in defective design or construction or prevent the
Contractor from performing its obligations under this Contract.
Owner shall review this estimate with the Contractor for the purpose of agreeing
on the matters set forth therein, including a mutually acceptable adjustment to the
Domestic Contract Price for a Variation, any Variation shall be priced and
compensated monthly in accordance with the provisions of Schedule 7 on a time
and material basis. Upon execution of a Variation by the Parties, the Contractor
shall forthwith proceed to carry out the Variation and be bound by this Contract in
so doing as if such Variation was stated in this Contract. The Contractor shall
continue to carry out all the Works pending the granting of the Variation. In any
61
DocuSign Envelope ID: 6E44579D-052C-4056-8E65-B52CD00535CD
case where the Contractor is instructed to proceed with a Variation prior to the
determination of the adjustment to the Domestic Contract Price in respect thereof
the Contractor shall be compensated monthly according to Schedule 7 on a time
and materials basis as set forth above and Contractor shall keep records of such
Variation and of time expended thereon. Such records shall be open to inspection
by Owner’s Representative at all reasonable times. Once Owner and the
Contractor execute a Variation with respect to any matter, the Contractor shall not
be entitled to make any claim or any claim for a price adjustment, schedule
extension or variation or modification of the Contract with respect to such matter,
nor will any subsequent Variation be construed to alter a prior Variation except to
the extent expressly set forth in such subsequent Variation. In no event shall the
Contractor be entitled to:
15.1 Notice to Correct - If the Contractor fails to carry out any of its
obligations hereunder, or if the Contractor is not executing the Works in
accordance with this Contract, Owner may give notice to the Contractor
requiring it to make good such failure and remedy the same. In the event
the Contractor neglects to make good such failure and remedy the same
within the time requested by Owner and the Contractor or, if no such time
is requested, within fifteen (15) Days from the Contractor’s receipt of
notice, Owner may, without prejudice to other remedies Owner may have,
undertake such work and deduct the cost thereof, including overhead and
profit, from any payments then or thereafter due to the Contractor. If
payments then or thereafter due to the Contractor are not sufficient to cover

(a) fails to comply within a reasonable time, but in no case more than
thirty (30) Days, with a notice under Section 15.1 and Section 7.5.
provided that such thirty (30) Day period shall be extended for an
additional period of not more than forty-five (45) Days so long as the
Contractor is diligently pursuing remediation of any such failure and
provided further that the foregoing seventy-five (75) Day period shall
be extended by the time reasonably required to procure and deliver to
the Site any defective part or component on commercially reasonable
terms taking into account the financial harm that Owner will suffer;
(c) upon forty-five (45) Days prior written notice from Owner fails to
employ sufficient capability in the performance of the Works such that
the Performance Certificate can reasonably be expected to be issued
within the Time for Completion;
(d) assigns this Contract or subcontracts the Works without any required
consent under this Contract, and fails to cure such after thirty (30)
Days written notice from Owner;
(e) fails to achieve the Taking-Over Date within one hundred and eighty
(180) Days after the Scheduled Taking-Over Date;
(f) fails thirty (30) Days after written notice from Owner to comply with
the requirements of any Applicable Laws or Applicable Permits
provided that the Contractor shall have an additional thirty (30) Day
period thereafter so long as it is diligently pursuing the cure of such
failure; or
(g) fails to maintain in full effect the Parent Guaranty required of the
Contractor pursuant to Section 4.2 hereof,
then Owner may, after having given thirty (30) Days’ notice to the Contractor,
terminate the Contractor’s services under this Contract and expel it from the Site.
The Contractor shall then:
(b) remove all Contractor’s Equipment from the Site (unless the directive
requires that the Contractor refrain from such removal);
(c) assign to Owner, in the manner, at the times, and to the extent directed
in writing by Owner’s Representative, all of the rights, title and

(d) deliver all Construction Documents, and other design documents made
by or for him, to Owner’s Representative.
The Contractor shall be released from any of its obligations or liabilities under
this Contract. The rights and authorities conferred on Owner and Owner’s
Representative by this Contract shall not be affected. Owner may upon such
termination complete the Works itself and/or by any other Person. Owner or such
other Person may use for such completion so much of the Construction
Documents, other design documents made by or on behalf of the Contractor,
Contractor’s Equipment, Temporary Works, Equipment and Materials as it or
they may think proper. Upon completion of the Works, or at such earlier date as
Owner’s Representative thinks appropriate, Owner’s Representative shall give
notice that the Contractor’s Equipment and Temporary Works will be released to
the Contractor at or near the Site. The Contractor shall remove or arrange
removal of the same from such place without delay and at his cost.

explain why the Contractor is not entitled to such amount within ten (10)
Days after the expiry of the time stated in Sections 13.1.4 within which
payment is to be made, except for any deduction that Owner is entitled to
make under this Contract, the Contractor may suspend work in whole or in
part, or reduce the rate of work after giving not less than seven (7) Days’
prior written notice to Owner (with a copy to the Representatives). Such
action shall not prejudice the Contractor’s entitlement to payment under
Sections 13.1.4 and to terminate under Section 16.2. If the Contractor
suspends work or reduce the rate of work, and Owner subsequently pays
the amount due (including payment in accordance with Section 13.1.4),
together with the financing charges payable under Section 13.1.6, the
Contractor’s entitlement under Section 16.2 shall lapse in respect of such
delayed payment, unless notice of termination has already been given, and
the Contractor shall promptly resume normal working progress. If the
Contractor suffers delay and/or incur Cost as a result of suspending work or
reducing the rate of work in accordance with this Section, the Contractor
shall give written notice to Owner. After receipt of such notice, Owner
shall proceed to agree or determine:
(a) any extension of time to which the Contractor is entitled under Section
8.3; and
(b) the amount of such Cost plus Profit thereon shall be added to the
Domestic Contract Price, and shall notify the Contractor accordingly.
(a) the Contractor is not paid any amount due, excluding any disputed
amounts within forty-two (42) Days after the expiry of the time stated
in Section 16.1 within which payment is to be made (except for a
deduction that Owner is entitled to make under this Contract);
(c) Owner assigns this Contract without the Contractors’ consent, unless
otherwise permitted under this Contract or any agreement with the
Lender;
65
DocuSign Envelope ID: 6E44579D-052C-4056-8E65-B52CD00535CD
then the Contractor may terminate its employment under this Contract by giving
notice to Owner, with a copy to the Representatives. Such notice shall take effect
fourteen (14) Days after the giving of the notice.
(a) cease all further work, except for such work as may be necessary and
instructed by Owner’s Representative for the purpose of making safe
or protecting those parts of the Works already executed, and any work
required to leave the Site in a clean and safe condition;
(b) hand over all Construction Documents, Equipment and Materials for
which the Contractor have received payment;
(c) hand over those other parts of the Works executed by the Contractor
up to the date of termination; and
(d) remove all Contractor’s Equipment which is on the Site and repatriate
all its staff and labor from the work Site.
Any such termination shall be without prejudice to any other right or remedy of
the Contractor under this Contract.
66
DocuSign Envelope ID: 6E44579D-052C-4056-8E65-B52CD00535CD
Contractor, if Owner has elected (in its sole discretion) in writing not to
take possession of such materials, equipment or supplies, and (iii) solely in
the case of termination of this Contract by Owner under Section 2.3 after
the issuance of the Notice to Commence, all documented costs incurred by
Contractor in the removal of Contractor’s Equipment and Materials from
the Site. Payment of this Termination Fee shall be the sole and exclusive
liability of Owner, and the sole and exclusive remedy of Contractor, with
respect to the termination of this Contract. Payment of the above amounts
is the sole and exclusive remedy of Contractor in case of Owner’s breach of
this Contract, and Contractor hereby waives any other rights under
Applicable Laws.
17.2 Owner’s Indemnity - Owner shall defend, indemnify and hold harmless
Contractor, Contractor’s Representative, its Affiliates, agents and
employees from and against liability resulting from injury to or death of
persons and from physical damage to or loss of third-party property, caused
by or arising in whole or in part out of, but only to the extent of the
negligent acts or omissions or willful misconduct of Owner or Owner’s
Representative. Owner’s indemnity obligation under this Section shall not
apply to any liabilities arising out of or relating to events or circumstances
occurring after the end of the Warranty Period.
17.3 Contractor’s Care of the Works - The Contractor shall take full
responsibility for the care, custody and control of the Works whether
delivered to or placed on the Site or elsewhere in connection with or for the
purpose of the Works, from the Preliminary Works Commencement Date
or the Commencement Date if such occurs earlier until the Taking-Over
Date when responsibility shall pass to Owner. If any loss or damage
happens to the Works arising from any cause during the period for which
the Contractor is responsible, the Contractor shall rectify such loss or
damage, at its cost, so that the Works conform to this Contract. The
Contractor shall also be liable for any loss or damage to the Works caused
by any operations carried out by the Contractor after the Taking-Over Date.
67
DocuSign Envelope ID: 6E44579D-052C-4056-8E65-B52CD00535CD
(d) any loss or damage arising out of or connected with the Contractor’s
gross negligence or willful misconduct; or
(e) any risks insured through insurance required under this Contract, it
being the Parties’ specific intent that the Liability Cap shall not
provide any relief or satisfaction of any obligation of the Contractor’s
insurers or guarantors.
In no event shall Owner or the Contractor be liable to the other for any consequential, special or
indirect losses or damages (including loss of future profits) for any reason, whether arising in
contract, warranty, tort, negligence, strict liability or otherwise. For the purpose of the foregoing
sentence only, the term “contractor” shall be deemed to refer to the contractor, contractor’s
Affiliates and Contractor’s Subcontractors and suppliers.

XVIII. INSURANCE
69
DocuSign Envelope ID: 6E44579D-052C-4056-8E65-B52CD00535CD
The Contractor shall provide to Owner, Owner’s Representative and the Lenders
promptly upon request a certificate of insurance providing evidence of each such
insurance upon the terms required hereunder. The Contractor shall furnish Owner
and the Lenders such evidence as may request from time to time regarding the
establishment and maintenance of insurance by any Subcontractor.
Each policy under Section 18.2, with the exception of Workers’ Compensation,
shall specify Owner and Lenders as additional insureds.
Each policy under Section 18.2 shall be placed and maintained with reputable
insurers and/or reinsurer of sound financial standing as approved by Owner and
Lenders from time to time.
Each policy under Section 18.2 shall be in such form and substance, consistent
with the Contractor’s obligations under this Contract, as approved by Owner and
Lenders from time to time.
70
DocuSign Envelope ID: 6E44579D-052C-4056-8E65-B52CD00535CD
Each insurance policy shall provide a minimum of sixty (60) Days’ notice to
Owner and Lenders prior to cancellation, non-renewal, reduction, restriction or
any material change that affects Owner or Lenders. In the case of cancellation for
non-payment of premium, ten (10) Days’ prior written notice must be provided to
Owner and Lender. Such notice is to be sent by a reputable international courier.
All policies obtained by the Contractor and/or any Subcontractor shall include a
waiver of subrogation against Owner, its employees, agents, directors, and
shareholders and the Lenders.
Except as provided for in Section 18.2(e), the above described insurance (except
for Section 18.2(a) Workers’ Compensation Insurance) shall be considered
primary insurance with respect to the obligations assumed by the Contractor
hereunder and all insurance carried by Owner, its agents, representatives, and/or
Lenders shall be considered secondary and non-contributory in relation thereto.
The Contractor shall comply with all terms, conditions and warranties of policies
procured by Owner pursuant to the following Section 18.4.
18.4 Policies Obtained by Owner - Owner shall maintain in force from Notice
to Commence and until the Actual Project Acceptance Date at its cost:
Construction/ Erection All Risk Insurance in accordance with Schedule 16. Such
insurance shall include Contractor, Subcontractors and their Affiliates as insureds;
and
18.5 General Requirements for All Insurance - The following provisions shall
apply to all insurance policies required pursuant hereto.
The Contractor and Owner, where applicable, shall comply with the conditions
stipulated in each of the insurance policies. The Contractor shall make no change
to the terms of any insurance without the prior approval of Owner. If an insurer
makes (or purports to make) any such change, the Contractor shall notify Owner
and Lenders as soon as practical. The Contractor shall immediately procure
replacement coverage for all cancelled policies. Failure to secure replacement
policies as to provide continuous coverage shall constitute a default hereunder. If
the Contractor fails to effect and keep in force any of the insurances required
under this Contract, Owner shall have the right but not the obligation to, without
prejudice to any other right or remedy, effect insurance for the coverage relevant
to such default, and pay the premiums due. Such payments shall be recoverable
from the Contractor by Owner and may be deducted by Owner from any sums
due, or to become due, to the Contractor. Nothing in this Section limits the
obligations, liabilities or responsibilities of the Contractor or Owner under the
other terms of this Contract or otherwise. Each Party shall deliver to the other
Party, prior to the commencement of the Work, certificates of insurance

19.2 Effect of Force Majeure Event - Neither Owner, nor the Contractor shall
be considered in default or in contractual breach while and to the extent
that performance of obligations is prevented by a Force Majeure event
which arises after the Effective Date and prevents, delays or interrupts an
activity both on the critical path of the Baseline Project Schedule and
current Works schedule. Changes in market conditions and changes in the
financial condition of any Subcontractor shall not be considered a Force
Majeure and neither shall the condition of waterways, roads, bridges or
tunnels which are inadequate for transportation of equipment and materials
be considered Force Majeure, unless such inadequate condition is a result
of an event that would otherwise constitute Force Majeure. Delays caused
by Governmental Authorities not occasioned by the malfeasance of Owner
are not Force Majeure. Force Majeure shall never excuse a payment
obligation provided that the obligation of the other Party which gives rise
to the payment obligation in question has been performed.
(a) for which a claim was made in a timely fashion but not paid on or
before the Taking-Over Date; or
74
DocuSign Envelope ID: 6E44579D-052C-4056-8E65-B52CD00535CD
The notice must include a written statement setting forth the general nature of
such claim. Failure to provide such written statement within such times shall
constitute a presumption that no payment or adjustment of the Domestic Contract
Price is claimed or warranted. Notwithstanding the existence of a claim or any
other matter in dispute between the Parties, unless otherwise agreed to in writing,
the Contractor shall proceed diligently with performance of this Contract and
follow the instructions of Owner or Owner’s Representative, as the case may be,
in accordance with the terms of this Contract. If Owner disputes such claim, the
Contractor’s sole recourse will be to pursue its rights under Sections 20.3 and
20.4 of this Contract. The Contractor shall keep such contemporary records as
may be necessary to substantiate any claim, either on the Site or at another
location acceptable to Owner’s Representative. Without admitting Owner’s
liability, Owner’s Representative shall, on receipt of such notice, inspect such
records and may instruct the Contractor to keep further contemporary records.
The Contractor shall permit Owner’s Representative to inspect all such records
and shall (if instructed) submit copies to Owner’s Representative. Within fifteen
(15) Days of such notice, or such other time as may be agreed by Owner’s
Representative, the Contractor shall send to Owner’s Representative an account,
giving detailed particulars of the amount and basis of the claim. Where the event
giving rise to the claim has a continuing effect, such account shall be considered
as interim. The Contractor shall then, at such intervals as Owner’s Representative
may reasonably require, send updated interim accounts giving the accumulated
amount of the claim and any applicable particulars. Where interim accounts are
sent to Owner’s Representative, the Contractor shall send a final account within
fifteen (15) Days of the end of the effects resulting from the event. If the
Contractor fails to comply with this Section, it shall not be entitled to additional
payment in consequence of its claim.
20.3 Negotiation between Senior Executives - The Parties will attempt in good
faith to resolve any controversy or claim of any nature arising out of or
relating to this Contract, including any breach thereof, promptly by
negotiation between senior executives of the Parties who have authority to
settle the controversy or claim. In the event a Party intends to invoke such
negotiation process, it shall give the other Party written notice of such
intent and specify in writing the specific nature of the dispute. Within eight
(8) Days of receipt of said notice, the receiving party shall submit to the
other a written response. The executives representing the Parties shall meet
at a mutually acceptable time and place within thirty (30) Days of the
75
DocuSign Envelope ID: 6E44579D-052C-4056-8E65-B52CD00535CD
20.4 Arbitration - In the event the Parties are unable to resolve any controversy
or claim of any nature arising out of or relating to this Contract, including
any breach thereof, through the procedures set forth in Section 20.3, the
controversy or claim shall be finally settled by arbitration in accordance
with the International Chamber of Commerce Rules which shall be the
exclusive method for dispute resolution (other than the negotiation
procedures set forth in Section 20.3). Owner on the one side and the
Contractor on the other side will appoint an arbitrator within thirty (30)
Days of the date of such request to initiate arbitration, which party-
appointed arbitrators will then jointly appoint a third arbitrator within thirty
(30) Days of the date of the appointment of the second arbitrator, to act as
Chairman of the Tribunal. Arbitrators not appointed within the time limits
set forth in the preceding sentence shall be appointed by the International
Chamber of Commerce. Both Parties undertake to implement the
arbitration award. The site of the arbitration shall be Lima, Perú. The
language of the arbitration shall be English. The losing Party shall bear the
expenses in connection with the arbitration, including attorneys’ fees, and
the compensation and expenses of the arbitrators. The award rendered shall
be in writing and shall set forth in reasonable detail the facts of the Dispute
and the reasons for the Tribunal’s decision. The decision of the arbitrators
shall be final and binding upon the Parties. Judgment upon the award
rendered by the arbitrator(s) may be entered in any court having
jurisdiction thereof. The prevailing Party may enforce such award or
judgment in any jurisdiction, including any jurisdiction where the other
Party’s assets may be located. Except as the Parties otherwise agree in
writing pending the final resolution of any claim or controversy or
arbitration proceeding, Contractor shall proceed diligently with the
performance of the Works under this Contract and in compliance with
Owner’s Representative’s directions in accordance with the terms of this
Contract.

(d) any failure, omission or delay on the part of the Siemens Energy
Subsidiary or the Beneficiary to perform or comply with any term of the
Contract;
Without limiting the generality of the foregoing and except as otherwise stated
herein, it is agreed that, at any time or from time to time, the occurrence or
existence of any one or more of the following shall not release, relieve or
discharge the Guarantor from liability hereunder, and the Guarantor hereby

(b) all notices that may be required by applicable law or otherwise, now or
hereafter in effect, to preserve intact any rights against the Guarantor
including, without limitation, any demand, presentment and protest,
proof of notice of nonpayment under the Contract, and notice of any
default or failure on the part of the Siemens Energy Subsidiary to
perform and comply with any covenant, agreement, term or condition
of the Contract;
4. EXPIRY
The obligations of the Guarantor set out herein shall be extinguished at the
earlier of (a) the date on which the Siemens Energy Subsidiary’s obligations have
been fulfilled under the Contract and (b) the date of termination of the Contract
and no further claim may be made against the Guarantor under this Guarantee
provided that this Guarantee shall continue to be effective or reinstated, as the

this Guarantee to the Guarantor immediately upon its expiry. However, for the
avoidance of doubt, this Guarantee expires independently of its return.
In the event that the Guarantor ceases to hold, directly or indirectly, the majority of the
voting rights of the Siemens Energy Subsidiary or the majority of shares of the Siemens
Energy Subsidiary, the Guarantor may offer a replacement guarantee for this Guarantee,
substantially in the form hereof, to be issued by another guarantor. If the Beneficiary,
acting reasonably having due regard to the remaining performance risk of the Guaranteed
Obligations to be fulfilled by the Siemens Energy Subsidiary and the credit risk of the
replacement guarantor determines such replacement guarantee is issued by an acceptable
Schedule 12

guarantor, the Beneficiary shall accept such replacement guarantee as security for the
Guaranteed Obligations, and upon the execution of such replacement guarantee this
Guarantee shall automatically be extinguished. The Beneficiary undertakes to return the
Guarantee to the Guarantor immediately following such extinguishment, but for the
avoidance of doubt, this Guarantee shall extinguish independently of its return.
5. ASSIGNMENT
Neither party shall assign or transfer any of its rights hereunder but the
Guarantor acknowledges and agrees that, without the consent of the Guarantor
the Beneficiary may assign for security purposes or create a security interest in
its rights and interests under or pursuant to this Guarantee in favor of any of its
financing parties.
NOTICES
5.1. Any notice to or demand on the Guarantor to be served under this Guarantee must be
in writing and be delivered in person or sent by post by recorded delivery to the
Guarantor at its address appearing in this Guarantee or at such other address as it may
have notified to the Beneficiary in accordance with this Clause 5.
5.2. Any such notice or demand shall be deemed to have been served:
6. WAIVER
No delay or omission of the Beneficiary in exercising any right, power or privilege under
this Guarantee shall impair or be construed as a waiver of such right, power or privilege
nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right, power or privilege preclude any
further exercise of such right, power or privilege or the exercise of any other right, power
or privilege.
7.2. Any term or provision of this Guarantee may only be amended, modified,
altered, waived, supplemented or terminated in writing signed by the Beneficiary
and the Guarantor. The requirement as to written form may itself only be waived
in writing. Electronic communications shall not constitute the written form for
these purposes.
Schedule 12

7.3. This Guarantee shall continue to be effective, or be reinstated, as the case may
be, if at any time payment, or any part thereof, of any of the Guaranteed
Obligations is rescinded or must otherwise be restored or returned by the
recipient thereof upon the insolvency, bankruptcy, dissolution, liquidation or
reorganization of the Siemens Energy Subsidiary, or upon or as a result of the
appointment of a custodian, receiver, intervenor or conservator of, or trustee or
similar officer for, the Siemens Energy Subsidiary or any substantial part of its
property, or upon any settlement or compromise of any claim effected by the
Beneficiary in connection with any such insolvency, bankruptcy, dissolution,
liquidation or reorganization with any claimant (including, without limitation, the
Siemens Energy Subsidiary) or otherwise, all as though such payments had not
been made. If any event specified in the immediately preceding sentence shall
occur, and such occurrence shall prevent, delay or otherwise affect the right of
the Beneficiary to receive any payment in respect of any Guaranteed Obligation,
the Guarantor agrees that, for purposes of this Guarantee and its obligations
hereunder and notwithstanding the occurrence of any of the foregoing events,
the Guarantor shall forthwith pay any such Guaranteed Obligation at such times
and in such amounts as are specified in the Contract. Notwithstanding anything
to the contrary in this Guarantee, the Guarantor hereby irrevocably waives all
rights that may have arisen in connection with this Guarantee to be subrogated
to any of the rights (whether contractual, under any bankruptcy law, under
common law or otherwise) of the Beneficiary against the Siemens Energy
Subsidiary or against any collateral security or guarantee held by the Beneficiary
for the payment of the Guaranteed Obligations. So long as any of the
Guaranteed Obligations remain outstanding, if any amount shall be paid by or on
behalf of the Siemens Energy Subsidiary to the Guarantor on account of any of
the rights herein, such amount shall be held by the Guarantor in trust,
segregated from other funds of the Guarantor, and shall, forthwith upon receipt
by the Guarantor, be turned over to the Beneficiary in the exact form received by
the Guarantor (duly endorsed by the Guarantor to the Beneficiary, if required), to
be applied against the Guaranteed Obligations in such order as the Beneficiary
may determine. The provisions of this paragraph shall survive the term of this
Guarantee and the payment in full of the Guaranteed Obligations.
7.4. All remedies provided in this Guarantee shall be deemed cumulative and not in
lieu of, or exclusive of, each other or of any other remedy available to the
Beneficiary at law or in equity, and the exercise of any remedy, or the existence
herein of other remedies, shall not prevent the exercise of any other remedy.
7.5. This Guarantee constitutes the entire agreement and contains all of the
understandings and agreements of whatsoever kind and nature existing
between the Guarantor and the Beneficiary with respect to the subject matter
hereof and the rights, interests, understandings, agreements and obligations of
the Guarantor and the Beneficiary relating thereto, and supersedes all prior
written or oral agreements, commitments, representations, communications and
understandings between the Guarantor and the Beneficiary with respect to the
subject matter hereof.
Schedule 12

7.6. The Beneficiary may elect to join any proceeding hereunder with any proceeding
under the Contract. The Guarantor hereby agrees that a separate action may
be brought against it whether or not an action is commenced against the
Siemens Energy Subsidiary with respect to any of the Guaranteed Obligations.
The Guarantor hereby agrees to the consolidation of any dispute or proceeding
hereunder with any dispute or proceeding involving the Contract.
7.8. The Guarantor waives notice of reliance upon this Guarantee by the Beneficiary.
Each of the Guaranteed Obligations (now or hereafter in effect) shall be deemed
conclusively to have been created, contracted or incurred in reliance upon this
Guarantee.
Any person who is not a party to this Guarantee shall have no right under it.
Signed by duly authorised signatories for and on behalf of SIEMENS ENERGY, AG.

Form of Project Report
Scheduling Methods
Contractor will maintain the project master schedule. The master schedule will be of sufficient
detail as to allow any user of MS Project program to easily identify the single “CRITICAL
PATH” and overall project “PERCENTAGES COMPLETE” for main areas of effort and the
entire Works.
Contractor shall provide the Owner with both a hard copy and an electronic copy of the updated
schedule monthly with the copies of the monthly Progress Report.
The monthly Progress Report, covering each calendar month from the Work
Commencement Date until the Facility Final Acceptance will consist of a tabular report with five
(5) copies to be delivered by e-mail to the Owner. The monthly Progress Report will consist of,
at a minimum, the following contributing reports:
Executive Summary
Project status consisting of a brief report which represents overall Works progress as compared
to planned progress and accompanied by an overall Works “S curve” which shows overall Works
completion percentage as compared to planned overall Project completion percentage. The
Contractor will represent in definitive terms whether the Works is on schedule and on budget.
The Contractor, in this summary, will provide information regarding any recovery plans either
being contemplated or in progress.
Shipping Status
The Contractor will maintain and present a detailed shipping and transportation report for all
Materials. This report, in a spreadsheet format, will indicate actual shipping of Materials against
planned shipping of Materials. This information will include dates, ports of dispatch and vessel
names.
In addition to the spreadsheet format report mentioned above, the shipping status will include a
narrative section dealing with shipping problems either actual or anticipated and any actual or
anticipated recovery plans associated with these problems.
Engineering and Design Status
The engineering and design progress and status of the Works will be tracked by using actual
drawing submissions to the Owner as compared to the planned drawing submissions schedule
(this information will be furnished in spreadsheet format and will be broken down into civil,
electrical, instrument & control, mechanical, and main flow diagrams, etc.) Individual “S
Schedule 17
Page 1
DocuSign Envelope ID: 6E44579D-052C-4056-8E65-B52CD00535CD
curves” for each of these main areas of engineering will be developed from the spreadsheet data
and will show planned vs actual progress on a monthly basis.
Details of tracking engineering open items and issues should be included in this section of the
monthly Progress Report. This will be accomplished using a spreadsheet format which will
clearly summarize the agreed-upon status of open engineering issues.
Project Schedule Status
The Works schedule will be updated monthly and made part of the monthly Progress Report.
Milestone status for milestones as per the Contract will be presented in a spreadsheet format
clearly showing planned dates of milestones and the actual dates that milestones have been
achieved.
Look Ahead Schedule
A three month look ahead construction schedule and report will summarize activities that
are planned for the three months subsequent to the month being reported on. This schedule and
report shall be based on the report function of the Primavera scheduling software and be made
part of the monthly Progress Report.
Milestone Payment status will be represented in a spreadsheet format which clearly shows
amounts and dates payments are received and amounts and dates payments are due.
(Information regarding submission of invoices should also be included in this report.)
Procurement Status
Procurement status will consist of a statement summarizing procurement activities and which
would incorporate areas of concern and recovery plans as appropriate for procurement which is
behind schedule.
Monthly Equipment procurement progress and status will be tracked by using actual purchase
order submissions as compared to the planned purchase order submissions schedule (this
information will be furnished in a spreadsheet format and will be broken down into civil,
electrical, instrument & control, mechanical, and main flow diagrams, etc.) Individual “S
curves” for each of these main areas of engineering will be developed from the spreadsheet data
and will show planned vs. actual progress on a monthly basis. Major Equipment fabrication
status will be presented in a bar-chart format showing the monthly progress of fabrication and
manufacture for the following major equipment:
(a) main transformers; and
Construction Status
Schedule 17
Page 2
DocuSign Envelope ID: 6E44579D-052C-4056-8E65-B52CD00535CD
which are behind schedule. Each monthly report should logically progress month by month from
start of Works until completion of the Work for those activities being reported on for:
(a) civil (BOQ’s and “S curves” showing planned against actual);
(c) electrical (BOQ’s and “S curves” showing planned against actual); and
(d) instrument and controls (BOQ’s and “S curves” showing planned against
actual).
Startup progress will be presented in a summarization narrative which clearly indicates current or
anticipated problems concerning system turnover and system commissioning.
System Turnover
System turnover will be presented in a spreadsheet format and will clearly show planned against
actual progress for each system which is to be turned over to the Owner startup and
commissioning activities.
Attachments
Progress photos
Environmental Status
The environmental status of the Works will be presented in a narrative summary of all
environmentally related activities which had occurred during the previous month or are occurring
on an on-going basis.
Other Reports
From time to time and normally in response to Contractor activities which are reported to
be or appear to be behind planned schedule, the Owner will require special reports to be
submitted by contractor.
Note: The overall construction progress report will combine monthly progress
reports from any other contractors engaged by the Owner whose work may impact
that of the Contractor.
