 Measurement mode: 4-wire measurement of current and voltage
 Irradiation range: 0-1200 W/m2
 Temperature range: -20 °C up to 80 °C

The I-V-curve tracer will be able to measure single strings or complete junction boxes. The whole I-V
curve of one string or one junction box will be measured within about 100 ms. Current, voltage and
irradiance are recorded simultaneously. Each string or junction box will be measured twice in
immediate succession; in case of large deviations, one additional I-V curve of the same sub-array is to
be measured.

Array peak power will be extrapolated to Standard Test Conditions according to the International
Standard “IEC 60891 Procedure for temperature and irradiance corrections to measured I-V
characteristics of crystalline silicon photovoltaic devices”.

The strings of one junction box will be fully characterised by measurement over the course of the day

In the case that, due to weather conditions, 600 W/m2 cannot be achieved timely, the Parties will, for
the only purpose of proceeding to the next step of the Acceptance Tests and in agreement with the
Lenders’ Technical Advisor, on redefining the minimum valid irradiation level. As a consequence,
execution of the I-V curves under the initially prescribed irradiance level will become a condition for
achieving Commercial Operations Date.

The test shall be directly measured on Site on a representative sample of PV strings in the presence of
the Lenders’ Technical Advisor.

The position of such strings shall be agreed upon between the Parties, taking into account that the
sample shall be representative of all the sections of the Facility.

At least 5% of strings or one string per combiner box will be measured at an irradiance level higher
than 600 W/m2.

The measurements will be performed at the output of the appropriate junction boxes or string
inverters, distributed across the Facility in the manner agreed under the approved Test Protocol.

Before starting the measurements of the I-V-curves the sub-arrays to be measured have to be
disconnected completely from the inverter, using the DC-switch in the junction boxes.

Malindi Draft: 18 October 2018

Part B3 - Performance Ratio Test

The Performance Ratio (PR) is the measure of the quality of the design, components and installation
of the Facility. It represents the relationship between the actual energy produced as measured by the
representative energy meter, and the energy theoretically produced by the Modules, before any
losses.

The Performance Ratio shall be measured at the Delivery Point.

For the purpose of calculating the Guaranteed Performance Ratio, all the following losses shall be
considered as included:

 Angular and spectral losses


 Shading losses from any source and mutual shading between modules
 Low irradiance losses
 Temperature losses
 Soiling losses and losses due to dirt and dust on the modules
 Cable losses in DC, AC-LV, AC-MV, AC-HV
 Mismatch losses
 Losses at the inverters, at the MV and HV transformers and at the other DC and AC
components (including switchgears, fuses, bus bars, joints, seems, current transformers and
others)
 Losses connected to the operation of the auxiliary systems including the energy self-
consumption of the Facility.

1.5.6.2 Duration of The Test

The duration of the Trial Operation shall be ten (10) consecutive full days. Should an extension of time
be required, the test may be extended for a cumulative maximum of five consecutive (5) days, after
which the Trial Operation period will restart.

The entire Facility shall be tested. No partial testing is allowed.

1.5.6.3 Conditions for the Test

On each day of the test, the test will be deemed to have commenced at the earlier of commencement
of inverter operation or 50 W/m2 irradiance measured by the plane-of-array pyranometers.

The following irradiation conditions apply:

 For the period from the start of September to the end of March the test shall be undertaken
so that for a period of no less than 30 hours over the 10-day period the modules shall be
exposed to an irradiance of 600 W/m2 or greater.
 For the period from the start of April to the end of August the test shall be undertaken so
that for a period of no less than 30 hours over the 10-day period the modules shall be
exposed to an irradiance of 400 W/m2 or greater.
 Irradiance will be measured as the average of all the plane-of-array pyranometers installed
at the Facility. At least two (2) plane-of-array pyranometers shall be available in order to
consider valid the measurement.

22
Malindi Draft: 18 October 2018

 Where pyranometers disagree by greater than 5% over the test period, the lower of the
results shall be disregarded.

The sampling period each day will cease when no further energy from the inverters is being received
and irradiance is below 50W/m2.

1.5.6.4 Requirements for successful completion

The Trial Operation will be considered as successfully completed if the following conditions are met:

 Actual Performance Ratio at Take Over (𝑃𝑅𝐴𝐶𝑇_𝑇𝑂 ) ≥ 95% of Guaranteed Performance Ratio
 Duration = 10 consecutive days
 Facility availability = 99%
 SCADA system availability = 100%

1.5.6.5 Availability during Tests

Availability of the Facility will be measured at the metering point. The individual availabilities
calculated for each inverter/combiner box are averaged to obtain the Facility availability; this average
is to be weighted by the installed DC capacity of each inverter/combiner box.

𝑇𝐸𝑛𝑒𝑟𝑔𝑦 𝑜𝑢𝑡𝑝𝑢𝑡
𝐴𝑣𝑎𝑖𝑙𝑎𝑏𝑖𝑙𝑖𝑡𝑦 =
𝑇𝑇𝑜𝑡𝑎𝑙 𝑡𝑒𝑠𝑡 𝑡𝑖𝑚𝑒

Where:

𝑇𝐸𝑛𝑒𝑟𝑔𝑦 𝑜𝑢𝑡𝑝𝑢𝑡 total time of Facility exporting Net Electrical Output.

𝑇𝑇𝑜𝑡𝑎𝑙 𝑡𝑒𝑠𝑡 𝑡𝑖𝑚𝑒 total time in which t, plane of array pyranometer irradiance reading is ≥
50W/m2 and none of the exclusions below apply

In the event that during an interval in the Trial Operation period the Availability of the Plant is lower
than 99%, the test will be extended in order to obtain the full 10-day Trial Operation period duration
and the required 99% Availability.

Events that will constitute an extension to the testing time period are:

 Events of Force Majeure,


 Grid failure/instability beyond the control of the Contractor,
 Irradiance lower that the provisions in this schedule (1.3.6.3 – Conditions of the Test),

in Facility downtime, and
 Periods of interruption caused by the Employer.

1.5.6.6 Performance Ratio Calculation Methodology

In calculating the Performance Ratio, data shall be measured over 10-minute intervals (the Sampling
Period). Whenever the inverter is not functioning for all or part of the sampling period, then:

23
Malindi Draft: 18 October 2018

 Where the irradiation is less than 50W/m2 the data is disregarded, or;
 Where the irradiation is greater than 50W/m2 the inverter will be considered as unavailable.

Pyranometers and dataloggers shall be capable of measuring to a granularity of 30-second intervals


which will be averaged over the Sampling Period.

Plane-of-array irradiance shall be measured in the same plane as the photovoltaic array by the
pyranometers on each site with accuracy ±2%. The average of the pyranometer readings will be taken
to evaluate the project irradiation for the test excluding any obvious outliers, at the Employer’s
discretion.

The PR is a measure of the quality of the design, components and installation of the Facility. It is the
relationship between the actual energy produced, i.e. the energy measured at the appropriate meter,
and the energy theoretically produced by the Modules (before any losses).

Contractor or five (5) days prior to the date scheduled for initial testing of the Plant to
begin, and thereafter at intervals of not less than one hundred and eighty (180) days
and after giving the Contractor no less than forty-eight (48) hours advance notice. The
Employer may have a representative present during any such testing, as well as during
any inspection of the Metering System or adjustment thereof.

(b) The Buyer shall also test the Metering System at any other time reasonably requested
by the Contractor, such additional testing to be at the Contractor’s expense unless the
test indicates that the Metering System is inaccurate by more than the percentages
as set out in this Contract, in which case the Buyer shall bear the cost of the additional
test. The Employer may have a representative present during any such testing, as well
as during any inspection of the Metering System or adjustment thereof. In order to
comply with the specifications in Schedule 17, Part A.

(c) When on the Site, the Buyer shall comply with all reasonable instructions of the
Contractor and, notwithstanding any other provision in this Agreement to the
contrary, shall indemnify and hold the Employer harmless from any loss or damage
sustained by virtue of the Buyer’s negligence or wilful misconduct in the performance
of its obligations but only to the extent that such loss or damage is not covered by
insurance of the Employer.

(d) The calibration of meters shall be checked to ensure that the accuracy remains within
the specified limits. The method of calibration and frequency of tests shall be agreed
between the Employer, and the Buyer based on knowledge of the performance and
the design of the installed meters and the manufacturers’ recommendations.

(e) Compensation shall be made for the errors of current and voltage transformers in the
meter calibration or during the computation of records. Current and voltage
transformers shall be tested for ratio and phase angle errors following manufacture at
an accredited testing station in the presence of representatives from the Employer
and the Buyer.

(f) Testing and calibration of the Back-Up Metering Equipment shall be carried out by the
Buyer after giving appropriate notice to the Employer, in line with the agreed
frequency of testing or in the event of either party having reasonable cause to believe
the meters are outside specified limits. During such tests and calibration the Employer
shall have the right to have a representative present at all times.

(g) Testing and calibration of the Main Metering Equipment shall be carried out by the
Buyer as in paragraph (f) above. During such tests and calibration the Employer shall
have the right to have a representative present at all times.

4. Reading of Meters

(a) Procedures: The Metering System shall be read monthly on distance and/or at site on
the last day of each month (or such other day as may be agreed upon by the Parties)
for the purpose of determining the Net Electrical Output of the Plant since the
preceding reading.

72
Malindi Draft: 18 October 2018

In the event that the Buyer’s representative is not present at an onsite reading of Net
Electrical Output, then the Employer’s representative shall take and record such
reading and make a photographic record thereof. The Contractor shall maintain a log
of all such meter readings. Measurements recorded shall be delivered by the
recording party to the non-recording party by facsimile or any other form of written
notice within forty-eight (48) hours after the readings are taken.

In the event that the Main Metering Equipment is not in service as a result of
maintenance, repairs or testing, then the Back-Up Metering Equipment, shall be used
during the period that the Main Metering Equipment is not in service and the
foregoing provisions of this Section shall apply to the reading of the Back-Up Metering
Equipment.

(b) Inaccuracies in Metering System: When, as a result of any test of the Main Metering
Equipment, the Main Metering Equipment is found to be inaccurate by more than the
specified percentage or is otherwise functioning improperly, then the correct amount
of Net Electrical Output delivered to the Buyer for the actual period during which
inaccurate measurements were made, if any, shall be determined as follows:

(i) First, the readings of the Back-Up Metering Equipment, if any, shall be utilised
to calculate the correct amount of Net Electrical Output, unless a test of such
Back-Up Metering Equipment, as required by either party, reveals that the
Back-Up Metering Equipment is inaccurate by more than above mentioned
percentages or is otherwise functioning improperly;

(ii) If there is no Back-Up Metering Equipment or if the Back-Up Metering


Equipment is found to be inaccurate by more than the specified percentages
or is otherwise functioning improperly, then the Contractor and the Buyer shall
jointly prepare an estimate of the correct reading on the basis of all available
information and such guidelines as may have been agreed to between the
Employer and the Buyer;

(iii) In the event that the Buyer and the Employer fail to agree upon an estimate for
the correct reading, the Buyer shall make any payments to the Employer
required as a result of its estimate of the correct reading and the matter may
be referred by either party for determination by an Expert pursuant to
Clause 19.4 (Expert Determination); and

(iv) The difference between the previous payments by the Buyer for the period of
inaccuracy and the recalculated amount shall be offset against or added to the
next payment to the Employer under the PPA, as appropriate. If the period of
inaccuracy cannot be accurately determined, it shall be deemed to have begun
on the date which is midway between the date the meter was found to be
inaccurate and the date of the last meter reading accepted by the Parties as
accurate. In no event, however, shall any such adjustment be made for any
period prior to the date on which the Main Metering Equipment was last tested
and found to be accurate within the abovementioned percentages and not
otherwise functioning improperly.

Irradiation shall be adjusted to exclude periods during which the actual production of the Facility has
been affected by the following unavailability issues:

 Unavailability due to reasons attributable to the O&M Contractor;


 Unavailability due to Force Majeure events;
 Grid failure/instability beyond the control of the Contractor,
 Inspections carried out by the Employer, KETRACO, KPLC or their representatives that results
in Facility downtime, and
 Periods of interruption caused by the Employer.

1.2.2 Data Availability

The SCADA system shall guarantee a minimum data availability of 99% over each Evaluation Period.

Such data availability shall be confirmed by the Contractor three months prior to the end of the
Evaluation Period. Should the overall data availability be below the minimum data availability, the
Employer shall have the right to force the Contractor to undertake remedial works in order to increase
the data availability pursuant to the Contract.

Unless due to reasons attributable to the O&M Contractor, periods of data unavailability shall not be
accounted in the calculation of the actual Performance Ratio but shall be regarded as periods of
unavailability pursuant to the O&M Agreement.

1.2.3 Performance Ratio Calculation Methodology

In calculating the Performance Ratio (PR), data shall be measured over the Sampling Period.

The PR is a measure of the quality of the design, components and installation of the Facility. It is the
relationship between the actual energy produced, i.e. the energy measured at the appropriate meter,
and the energy theoretically produced by the modules (before any losses):

𝐸𝐸𝑥𝑝_𝑗
𝑃𝑅𝑗 =
𝐸𝑃𝑉_𝑗

Where:

𝑃𝑅𝑗 Is the performance ratio measured over the Sampling Period “j” where the
Facility has been operational

𝐸𝐸𝑥𝑝_𝑗 Is the total energy (kWh) exported by the Facility at the Delivery Point as
measured by the official meter over the Sampling Period “j”

𝐸𝑃𝑉_𝑗 Energy theoretically produced by the PV modules (kWh) in timeframe j.

𝐻𝑗
𝐸𝑃𝑉_𝑗 = 𝑃𝑛𝑜𝑚 ∙ (1 + 𝛽 ∙ (𝑇𝑚𝑒𝑎𝑠,𝑗 − 𝑇𝑚𝑜𝑑 )) ∙ ( )∙
𝐺𝑆𝑇𝐶

Where:

82
Malindi Draft: 18 October 2018

𝑃𝑛𝑜𝑚 Is the Actual Peak Power in kWp

𝛽 Is the temperature coefficient of the Module power taken from the Module
datasheet (% / ºC). For avoidance of doubt this coefficient shall be a
negative value.

𝑇𝑚𝑒𝑎𝑠,𝑗 Is the mean average value of the Module temperature sensors placed on
the back side of the Modules measured during each timeframe j (ºC)

𝑇𝑚𝑜𝑑 Is the average monthly Module temperature (ºC) from the Guaranteed
Performance Ratio at COD table in Schedule 19 – Performance Levels and
Liquidated Damages.

𝐻𝑗 Is the irradiation hitting the Modules in timeframe j based upon the mean
average of the available on-site pyranometers, and the recordings
comprising that timeframe (kWh / m2)

𝐺𝑆𝑇𝐶 Is the irradiance under Standard Test Conditions = 1,000 W / m2

𝑛 Is the Year since Full Commercial Operations Date

𝑑 Is the guaranteed Module degradation rate (%/yr) as per Schedule 19

A single PR figure will then be calculated for the duration of the test by using the following equation:

∑𝑚
𝑗=1 𝐸𝐸𝑥𝑝_𝑗
𝑃𝑅𝐴𝐶𝑇_𝑌𝑛 =
∑𝑚
𝑗=1 𝐸𝑃𝑉_𝑗

Where:

𝑃𝑅𝐴𝐶𝑇_𝑌𝑛 Is the Actual Performance Ratio for the Year “n”

𝑚 Is the number of sampling periods (j) in the total test period

𝑛 Is the Year since Full Commercial Operations Date

1.2.4 Irradiation

Pyranometers and data loggers shall be capable of measuring to a granularity of 30 second intervals
which will be averaged over the Sampling Period.

Plane-of-array irradiance shall be measured in the same plane as the photovoltaic array by the
pyranometers installed at the Facility.

The total irradiation value over each Year is obtained through the following formula:

83
Malindi Draft: 18 October 2018

𝐻𝑇𝑂𝑇 = ∑ 𝐻𝑗
𝑗=1

Where 𝐻𝑗 shall be the average of the pyranometer readings excluding any obvious outliers, at the
Employer’s discretion.

SCHEDULE 26

ENVIRONMENTAL AND SOCIAL REQUIREMENTS

1.1 General Requirements

The Contractor will plan, execute and document construction works pursuant to the present Schedule
26 Environment & Social Requirements (ESR). The Contractor will have its own Environmental and
Social Management System (ESMS) in line with ISO 14001 standards. The provisions of these ESRs
would take precedence on the Contractor internal ESMS in case of any conflicts between the two
systems. In the context of the present ESRs, the word “Worksite(s)” means:

 The land where work will be carried out (project footprint),


 The land necessary for the implantation of Worksite facilities (e.g. work camp, workshops,
offices, laydown areas, any concrete batching plants) and the access roads,
 Quarries for aggregates and fill material,
 Borrow areas for sand and other selected material, or
 Disposal areas for excavation spoils,
 Any other location specifically designated in the Contract as a Worksite.

The term “Worksite(s)” encompasses any individual Worksite or all Worksites.

The ESRs refer to:

 Protection of the natural environment (water, air, soil, vegetation, biological diversity) in areas
adjacent to the Worksite, access roads, quarries, borrow areas, stockpiling of backfill material,
camps or storage areas.
 Working practices and the protection of people and populations living near the Worksite but
exposed to the general disturbance caused by works.

The Health and Safety conditions to be maintained for the Contractor’s personnel and any other
person present on the Worksites, or along access routes, are specified in Schedule [x].

1.2 Applicable Standards

The Contractor shall be responsible for ensuring compliance with any new legislation introduced
during the course of the services. In addition, compliance with national legislation, NEMA
environmental permit conditions, and ESMP, the Project and the Contractor will be expected to
comply with the requirements outlined Equator Principles (EPIII, 2013), associated IFC Performance
Standards (2012) and World Bank EHS Guidelines. The Project will also be expected to adhere to any
additional environmental and social conditions contained within the Project’s loan documentation. It
is recommended that the Contractor in particular makes himself familiar with the requirements of IFC
PS2 relating to Labour and Working Conditions.

1.3 Scope

These specifications apply to the Contractor and all subcontractors used for the execution of the
works. The Contractor is fully liable for all actions, non-compliance and negligence by subcontractors,
their representatives, employees and workers, to the same degree as it would be held liable for its
own actions, non-compliance or negligence or that of its own representatives, employees or workers.

93
Malindi Draft: 18 October 2018

1.4 Construction Environmental Management Plan

As part of the Contractor’s ESMS the Contractor will prepare, implement, and regularly update a
Construction Environmental & Social Management Plan (CESMP). The CESMP represents the unique
reference document in which the Contractor defines in detail all organisational and technical
provisions implemented to satisfy the obligations of the present ESRs and the specific obligations
defined in 1.10 ESMP. The Contractor shall provide the Employer with a draft ESMS and CESMP within
seven (7) days of the Effective Date and shall ensure that the Employer’s comments are incorporated
in the final CESMP within twenty-one (21) days of receipt of Employer’s comments.

The CESMP will contain as a minimum the following:

 Contractors General commitments - which defines the Contractor’s general environmental


and social commitments in terms of organization and production: personnel with roles and
responsibilities, mobilized resources, site procedures, communication, management of non-
conformities, documents and data management, auditing.
 Project specific management plans required to implement the measures identified in the
ESMP and general IFC EHS guidelines - including but not limited to the following:
o Labour management plan
o Training program
o Social management plan (including migrant influx)
o HIV/Aids, malaria health management and prevention
o Emergency preparedness and response plan
o Chance finds procedure
o Site clearance and rehabilitation plan
o Hazardous materials management
o Traffic management plan
o Waste management plan (including offsite landfill)
o Blast management plan (where relevant)
o Water and waste water management plan
o Workers camp organisation and management
o Change/New Worksite Initial Environmental & Social Examination Procedure
 Employee Code of Conduct
 Employee Grievance procedure
 Community Grievance procedure

The Contractor will engage a full time Health Safety and Environment Manager to implement the
Construction ESMP and health and safety at the Worksites. The HSE Manager is permanently based at
the Worksite for the full duration of the works as of Contractor’s mobilisation until the provisional
acceptance of all works.

The Employer or its representative may audit the environmental and social performance of the
Contractor with respect to implementation of these requirements and the CESMP.

1.5 Monitoring and Reporting

The HSE Manager will carry out environmental and social inspection of the Worksite on a weekly basis.
A record of each weekly inspection will be maintained, specifically any non-conformities will be
documented by a digital photograph to provide a visual illustration, explicitly indicating the location,
date of inspection and the non-conformity in question. Actions and timescale for addressing non-

94
Malindi Draft: 18 October 2018

conformities detected on the Worksite will be summarised and progress recorded as part of weekly
site meetings.

The Contractor will submit on a monthly basis an Environmental & Social (ES) activity report
summarising all Environmental and social initiatives implemented in relation to the execution of the
works during the reporting period to the Employer. The monthly will be provided in English and
submitted within 7 working days after the last day of the month in question.

1.6 Incidents

The Contractor will inform the Employer within 1 hour of any serious injury or damage to private
property or the environment, and within 24 hours of any near-missed accident relating to the
execution of the works which, in slightly different conditions, could have led to serious injury or
damage to private property or the environment.

1.7 Addressing Change and potential environmental impacts

The location of some activities / worksites was not known during the ESIA Project preparation, in the
event that the contractor is required to undertake any works or activities outside the project
boundaries, prior approval from the Employer must be obtained. The Contractor will undertake an
Initial Environmental & Social Examination for any activities not assessed by the ESIA or covered in the
ESMP. The Initial Environmental and Social Examination is required to study any proposed alternatives
to the worksite’s location, design, technology, and components and their potential environmental and
social impacts. The Contractor will document the rationale for selecting the particular alternative and
demonstrate relevant mitigation measure are in place to avoid environmental and social impacts.

While selecting the preferred alternative, the Contractor will adopt a mitigation hierarchy approach
to address adverse environmental or social impacts and issues to workers, affected communities, and
the environment from the worksite and associated facilities. The mitigation hierarchy comprises
measures taken to avoid creating environmental or social impacts from the outset of development
activities, and where this is not possible, to implement additional measures that would minimise,
mitigate and, as a last resort, offset and/or compensate any potential residual adverse impacts.

The Initial Environmental & Social Examination will follow a simple form structured as follows:

 Part I: Environmental & social analysis of technical alternatives considered for the worksite;
and
 Part II: Analysis of the selected technical solution for the worksite:
 Flora and habitats within the worksite footprint and within 100m around
 Presence, species and diameter at breast height of any trees
 Distance to the nearest residential areas
 Permanent or seasonal usages of the proposed worksite area by the local communities
 Soils and Erosion Concerns
 Hydrological and water quality Concerns
 Groundwater Elevations & supply
 Summary of potential adverse impacts on the natural environment and local
communities
 Proposed mitigation strategy to reduce or eliminate identified environmental or social
adverse impacts.

95
Malindi Draft: 18 October 2018

1.8 Community relations

The Contractor will work together with the Employer’s Community Liaison Officer (CLO) in all
engagements and relations with local communities. It is recommended that the Contractor budget for
some small local CSR activities. Any CSR activities must be discussed with the CLO to identify
appropriate projects and ensure fair allocation of resources among the local community.

1.9 Local Recruitment

Local labour needs are estimated prior to the start of works and described in the CESMP with the
following information:

 Identification of positions that could be filled by local staff and the level of qualification
required;
 Definition of the planned procedure for the effective recruitment of these members of staff;
 Deployment schedule for these positions; and
 Initial training to be provided by the Contractor for each job description.

The Contractor implements a voluntary local recruitment policy including defining targets for its
personnel for the duration of the works and shall enforce this policy to its subcontractors. Positions
will be advertised to maximize local recruitment and, in case the aforementioned local recruitment
target are not achieved, to demonstrate that no local skills are available despite all efforts made to
recruit locally. The Contractor demonstrates the effective implementation of this voluntary policy to
the Employer in its monthly report.

The Contractor will develop a training programme aiming to support the voluntary local recruitment
policy. Local recruitment at the Worksites, including at the entrance, is strictly prohibited to limit the
influx and settlement of spontaneous population waiting for employment. The Contractor will work
closely with the Employers CLO to support in identifying local communities to be targeted for local
recruitment and to avoid at site recruitment.

All workers on successful completion of training activities and on successful completion of their
employment will be issued with certificates by the Contractor clearly stating duration of their
employment, tasks undertaken, and skill demonstrated.

4 GUARANTEES, WARRANTIES AND INDEMNITIES


Defects Liability
Remedying Defects

4.1 If notified to Contractor in writing by the Assignee during the Defects Notification Period (such
written notification hereafter referred to as the “Remedial Notice”), the Contractor shall,
within the Remedial Period, and in a manner which causes as little disruption to the operation
of the Interconnection Facilities as reasonably possible, promptly carry out all Remedial Work
(the Warranty).
Remedial Period

4.2 The Remedial Notice shall set out the time within which the Assignee reasonably requires the
Remedial Work to be undertaken (the “Proposed Remedial Period”). The Proposed Remedial
Period shall be consistent with Prudent Operating Practice for the remedying of such Defects.
The Contractor may, within three (3) Business Days of receipt of the Remedial Notice, by
written notice to the Assignee (the “Objection Notice”), object to the Proposed Remedial
Period solely on the basis that it is not consistent with Prudent Operating Practice. The
Contractor and Assignee shall promptly following the issuance of the Objection Notice engage
in good faith discussions to agree the remedial period with respect to the Defect notified
under the relevant Remedial Notice. Where the Contractor and the Assignee have not agreed
the remedial period for the relevant Defect within three (3) Business Days of issuance of the
Objection Notice, the Contractor may refer such determination to the Independent Engineer.
The Independent Engineer (acting as expert and not arbitrator) shall determine the remedial
period (applicable in accordance with Prudent Operating Practice) with respect to the Defect
notified under the relevant Remedial Notice. Save in the case of fraud, the aforesaid
determination by the Independent Engineer shall be final and binding on the Assignee and the
Contractor. The Contractor shall immediately upon receipt of the Remedial Notice commence
the Remedial Works notwithstanding the issuance by the Contractor of an Objection Notice.
The costs of Independent Engineer shall be borne by the Assignor[●].
Cost of Remedying Defects

4.3 All Remedial Work shall be executed at the risk and cost of the Contractor.

4.4 For the avoidance of doubt, if and to the extent that a Defect is attributable to:

125
Malindi Draft: 16 October 2018

 Inappropriate use, operation or maintenance by any person including any use,


operation or maintenance which is not compliant with Prudent Operating Practice,
the remediation of such Defect shall not be the responsibility of the Contractor.
Extension of Defects Notification Period

4.5 The Defects Notification Period applicable to the Interconnection Facilities (other than the
Civil Works) will be extended in respect of any Remedial Work for a further period of twenty-
four (24) months from the date of such re-performance, repair or replacement (such
extension to commence from completion of the relevant Remedial Work), provided that in no
instance shall such extended Defects Notification Period expire any later than forty-
eight (48) months after the Transfer Date.
Failure to Remedy Defects

4.6 If Contractor fails to perform Remedial Work within the Remedial Period or as provided for
under the Punch List (as applicable) and this Remedial Work was to be executed at the cost of
Contractor under Clause 4.2 (Cost of Remedying Defects), the Assignee may (at its option)
carry out the work itself or by others at the Contractor's cost and shall be entitled to recover
all actual costs reasonably incurred by it from Performance Security and:

4.6.1 the cost of remedying the Defects shall include the actual costs reasonably incurred
by Assignee in remedying the Defect or damage, including the cost of procuring
equivalent Defects liability remedies in respect of such remedied work; and

4.6.2 the performance of Remedial Work by the Assignee or other persons shall not, to the
extent such work is performed in accordance with the specifications of the original
equipment manufacturer (as applicable) and Prudent Operating Practice, affect the
Contractor’s liability for Defects in any other part of the Interconnection Facilities.
