Due to the limited time under this Agreement for Cheniere’s review of the Drawings and Specifications, Willbros’ or its Subcontractors’ or Vendors’ expertise in the Work and Cheniere’s reliance on Willbros to prepare accurate and complete Drawings and Specifications, Willbros recognizes and agrees that Cheniere is not required or expected to make detailed reviews of the Drawings and Specifications, but instead Cheniere’s review of the Drawings or Specifications may be of only a general, cursory nature. Accordingly, any reviews or approvals given by Cheniere under this Agreement with respect to any Drawings or Specifications shall not in any way be, or deemed to be, an approval of any Work or Drawings or Specifications not meeting the requirements of this Agreement, as Willbros has the sole responsibility for performing the Work in accordance with the requirements of this Agreement.

2.9 Audit Rights: During the term of this Agreement and for a period of three (3) years after the earlier of Project Completion or termination of this Agreement, retain full and detailed books, construction logs, Drawings, Specifications, Change Orders, records, daily reports, accounts, payroll records, receipts, statements, electronic files (including schedules, e-mails and CAD), correspondence, subcontracts and other documents of Willbros, its affiliated companies or their respective Subcontractors and Vendors, which in any way: (a) pertain to the Agreement, including any such documents related to the Work; or (b) relate to costs, compensation for changes in the Work, or claims of any type by Willbros or its Subcontractors or Vendors (“Books and Records”). Upon five (5) days’ written notice, Cheniere or any of its representatives shall have the right to audit such Books and Records during such three (3) year period, provided, however, such parties shall not have the right to audit or have audited Books and Records in connection

A-11

with the internal composition of any compensation that is fixed in amount hereunder such as the composition of unit rates or hourly rates. When requested by Cheniere, Willbros shall provide the auditors with reasonable access to all such Books and Records, and Willbros Personnel shall cooperate with the auditors to effectuate any audit hereunder. The auditors shall have the right to copy all such Books and Records. Willbros shall include audit provisions identical to this Paragraph 2.9 in all subcontracts and purchase orders with Subcontractors and Vendors. Willbros shall maintain all Books and Records in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles applicable in the United States. Willbros will not charge for any costs incurred by it in assisting Cheniere with audits performed pursuant to this Paragraph 2.9. Willbros obligations under this Paragraph 2.9 shall survive the termination of this Agreement.

3. WILLBROS PERSONNEL AND EQUIPMENT

3.1 Key Personnel: Willbros Personnel shall be provided in sufficient numbers, and shall be competent and fully qualified to execute the Work. Willbros shall submit to Cheniere’s Authorized Representative an updated organization chart of key Project personnel from Willbros’ or its Subcontractors’ or Vendors’ organization (“Key Personnel” or “Key Persons”) who shall be assigned to the Work, such organization chart to be in the form of and attached as Attachment VIII. Key Personnel shall, unless otherwise expressly stated in such organization chart, be devoted full-time to the Work for the entire duration of the Project, and Key Personnel shall not be removed or reassigned without Cheniere’s prior written approval. Cheniere shall have the right, but not the obligation, at any time to request that Willbros replace any Key Person with another employee acceptable to Cheniere. In such event, Willbros shall replace such Key Person without additional expense to Cheniere.

3.2 Willbros Equipment: Willbros Equipment shall be suitable for the performance of the Work, in good repair and otherwise comply with the terms of this Agreement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, Willbros shall be responsible for repair, damage to or destruction or loss of, from any cause whatsoever, all Willbros Equipment. Willbros shall require that all insurance policies (including policies of Willbros and all Subcontractors and Vendors) in any way relating to such Willbros Equipment include clauses stating that each underwriter will waive all rights of recovery, under subrogation or otherwise, against the Cheniere Group.

3.3 Subcontractors and Vendors: Cheniere acknowledges and agrees that Willbros intends to have portions of the Work accomplished by Subcontractors or Vendors pursuant to written subcontracts or purchase orders between Willbros and such Subcontractors and Vendors, and that such Subcontractors and Vendors may have certain portions of the Work performed by lower tier subcontractors or vendors. All Subcontractors and Vendors shall be reputable, qualified firms with an established record of successful performance in their respective trades performing identical or substantially similar work. All contracts with Subcontractors and Vendors shall be consistent with the terms or provisions of this Agreement. No Subcontractor or Vendor is intended to be or shall be

A-12

deemed a third party beneficiary of this Agreement. Willbros shall be fully responsible to Cheniere for the acts or omissions of Subcontractors and Vendors and of persons directly or indirectly employed by either of them, as Willbros is for the acts or omissions of persons directly employed by Willbros. The Work of any Subcontractor or Vendor shall be subject to inspection by Cheniere to the same extent as the Work of Willbros. Nothing contained herein shall (i) create any contractual relationship between any Subcontractor or Vendor and Cheniere, or (ii) obligate Cheniere to pay or cause the payment of any amounts to any Subcontractor or Vendor. Willbros shall, within thirty (30) days prior to the selection of any Subcontractor or Vendor, notify Cheniere in writing of the selection of such Subcontractor or Vendor and inform Cheniere generally what portion of the Work such Subcontractor or Vendor is performing.

3.4 Bidding of Subcontracts and Purchase Orders: As part of Willbros’ performance of the Work on an “open book basis”, Willbros shall provide all necessary services related to the bidding of subcontracts and purchase orders for the construction and procurement components of the Work, including the following: (a) preparing lists of prospective bidders for review by Cheniere; (b) preparing appropriate bid documents, including proposed forms of subcontract and purchase orders; (c) establishing bid schedules; (d) advertising for bids and developing bidder interest; (e) furnishing information concerning the Project to prospective bidders; (f) conducting pre-bid conferences; (g) receiving bids, as described below, and analyzing bids and making recommendations to Cheniere regarding bid awards; (h) investigating the acceptability and responsibility of lower-tiered Subcontractors and Vendors proposed by any Subcontractor or Vendor and advising Cheniere of such evaluations; (i) negotiating with Subcontractors and Vendors concerning any matter related to the Project; and (j) providing such other services required by Cheniere with respect to the bidding process. Willbros shall require bidders to submit their sealed bids directly to Willbros, and Willbros shall forward copies of such bids to Cheniere. Willbros shall require bidders for the construction component of the Work to submit their sealed bids directly to Cheniere and copies of such bids to Willbros. The receipt of the proposed bidders list by Cheniere shall not require Cheniere to investigate the qualifications of prospective bidders, nor shall it waive the right of Cheniere to later object to or reject any proposed Subcontractors or Vendors.

3.5 Cheniere Approval of Subcontractors and Vendors:

3.5.1 Approved Subcontractors and Vendors List: Attachment VII sets forth a list of Subcontractors and Vendors that Willbros and Cheniere have agreed are approved Subcontractors and Vendors for the performance of that stated portion of the Work specified in Attachment VII. Approval by Cheniere of any Subcontractors or Vendors does not relieve Willbros of any responsibilities under this Agreement. Unless Cheniere otherwise approves, each prospective bidder list shall contain at least three (3) Subcontractors or Vendors from the Approved Subcontractors and Vendors List in Attachment VII.

A-13

3.5.2 Additional Proposed Subcontractors and Vendors: In the event that Willbros is considering the selection of a Subcontractor or Vendor not listed on Attachment VII, Willbros shall (i) notify Cheniere of its proposed Subcontractor or Vendor as soon as possible during the selection process, including clearly identifying such proposed Subcontractor or Vendor on the list of prospective bidders provided in accordance with Paragraph 3.4, and furnish to Cheniere all information reasonably requested by Cheniere with respect to Willbros’ selection criteria, and (ii) notify Cheniere no less than seven (7) business days prior to the execution of a subcontract or purchase order with a Subcontractor or Vendor not listed on Attachment VII. Cheniere shall have the discretion, not to be unreasonably exercised, to reject any proposed Subcontractor or Vendor not listed on Attachment VII at any time. Willbros shall not enter into any subcontract or purchase order with a proposed Subcontractor or Vendor that is rejected by Cheniere in accordance with the preceding sentence. Cheniere shall undertake in good faith to review the information provided by Willbros with respect to such proposed Subcontractor or Vendor expeditiously and shall notify Willbros of its decision to accept or reject a proposed Subcontractor or Vendor as soon as practicable after such decision is made. Failure of Cheniere to accept a proposed Subcontractor or Vendor within seven (7) business days shall be deemed to be a rejection of such Subcontractor or Vendor.

4. WORK SITE RESPONSIBILITIES

4.1 Land Acquisition Plan: Willbros shall provide reasonable assistance to Cheniere, as requested by Cheniere in writing, in finalizing Cheniere’s land acquisition plan as necessary to permit land activities for the Project to proceed in accordance with the FERC Certificate and in accordance with Paragraph 5.2. Such plan may include required rights of way, access roads, materials and equipment storage facilities, office sites, vehicle parking areas, temporary electrical supply locations and trash collection areas, including proposed locations for each.

4.2 Provision of Facilities: Willbros shall provide warehousing, offices, storage and related utilities in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and the FERC Certificate for Willbros Equipment and such other materials and equipment to be incorporated into the Work.

4.3 Maintenance of Work Sites: Willbros shall, to Cheniere’s satisfaction, at all times keep the Work Site free from all waste materials or rubbish caused by the activities of Willbros or any of its Subcontractors or Vendors. Without limitation of the foregoing or limiting Willbros’ obligations, Willbros shall clean up all such waste materials or rubbish at Cheniere’s request with reasonable notice.

4.4 Compliance with Real Property Interests and Other Work Site Restrictions: Willbros shall, in the performance of the Work, comply, and cause all Subcontractors and Vendors to comply, with any agreement governing any easement, lease, right-of-way or other

A-14

property interests that affect or govern the Work Site or any other real property used for the purposes of completing the Work, including any line list, insurance or indemnification restrictions or obligations therein, to the extent such easement, lease, right-of-way or other property interests relate to the performance of the Work (but only to the extent that such indemnification restrictions and obligations are consistent with Willbros indemnification obligations agreed to herein). In addition, Willbros shall comply with any one-call requirements imposed by Applicable Law (including local law) and coordinate with owners or operators of all third-party utilities, including those crossed by the Project or otherwise situated within the Work Site or affected by the Work. Cheniere shall provide Willbros with copies of all relevant portions of the agreements governing such easement, lease, right-of-way, and other property interests to the extent that such agreements impose restrictions or obligations on Willbros pursuant to this Paragraph 4.4. To the extent that such agreements require Willbros to procure insurance in addition to or in amounts in excess of that insurance required by this Agreement, the Willbros shall be entitled a Change Order increasing the Guaranteed Maximum Price to cover the cost of such additional insurance.

4.5 Coordination of Work: Willbros acknowledges that Cheniere and other consultants and contractors may be working at the Work Site during the performance of this Agreement and the Work or use of certain facilities may be interfered with as a result of such concurrent activities, and Willbros agrees to coordinate the performance of the Work with Cheniere and such other consultants and contractors performing work at the Work Site so as not to materially interfere with Cheniere or its other consultants or subcontractors performing work at the Work Site.

5. CHENIERE’S OBLIGATIONS

In close cooperation and coordination with Willbros, and subject to the terms and conditions of the Agreement, Cheniere shall:

5.1 Licenses and Permits: Provide, or cause to be provided, all approvals, permits, licenses (other than Willbros’ or its Subcontractors’ or Vendors’ operating and professional licenses, including road bonding) and/or other authorizations necessary for the Project from any Governing Authority, including the FERC Certificate and all environmental agencies.

5.2 Work Site Access: Secure legal and reasonable access to the Work Site, in accordance with the FERC Certificate, as necessary to permit Willbros to commence Work in accordance with this Agreement by obtaining the rights of way, pipe yards, xxxx yards, and all other land rights or property interests necessary for the Work, all in accordance with Cheniere’s land acquisition plan.

5.4 Payment: Remunerate Willbros as required by the Agreement.

5.4.1 Contract Amount: Subject to additions and deductions by Change Order, Cheniere shall pay Willbros for performance of the Work to be performed by Willbros for the Project as described in this Agreement and Schedule “B”, the “Contract Amount” consisting of (i) the Cost of the Work, (ii) the Willbros Management Fee, (iii) Contingency Costs, and (iv) Louisiana sales and use taxes applicable to permanent materials and equipment to be incorporated into the Project. The “Cost of the Work” shall mean those costs necessarily incurred by Willbros in good faith in the proper performance of the Work.

5.4.2 Taxes: The Guaranteed Maximum Price includes any and all taxes, assessments, levies, duties, fees, charges and withholding of any kind or nature whatsoever and howsoever described, including value-added, sales and use taxes (except as indicated herein), gross receipts, license, payroll, environmental, profits, premium, franchise, property, excise, capital stock, import, stamp, transfer, employment, occupation, generation, privilege, utility, regulatory, energy, consumption, lease, filing, recording and activities taxes, levies, duties, fees charges, imposts and withholding, together with any and all penalties, interests and additions thereto in any way related to the Work (collectively, “Taxes”), but not including Louisiana sales and use taxes applicable to permanent materials and equipment to be incorporated into the Project, the cost of which is not subject to the Guaranteed Maximum Price. With each invoice that requests reimbursement for Louisiana sales and use taxes applicable to permanent materials and equipment to be incorporated into the Project, Willbros shall separately list in the invoice such Louisiana sales and use taxes. Subject to the other provisions of this Agreement, Cheniere shall remit to Willbros the payment of such Louisiana sales and use taxes within the time allowed for payment of invoices under this Agreement. Willbros shall be responsible for paying to the applicable Governing Authority all Taxes and Louisiana sales and use taxes applicable to permanent materials and equipment to be incorporated into the Project owed under Applicable Law with respect to the Work. IF AND TO THE EXTENT CHENIERE HAS PAID TO WILLBROS THE APPLICABLE TAXES AND LOUISIANA SALES AND USE TAXES APPLICABLE TO PERMANENT MATERIALS AND EQUIPMENT TO BE INCORPORATED INTO THE PROJECT REQUIRED UNDER THIS PARAGRAPH, WILLBROS SHALL INDEMNIFY, DEFEND AND HOLD HARMLESS THE CHENIERE GROUP FROM AND AGAINST ANY CLAIMS

A-16

BY ANY GOVERNING AUTHORITY FOR THE NON-PAYMENT OF SUCH TAXES AND SUCH LOUISIANA SALES AND USE TAXES.

5.4.3 Invoicing: Willbros shall submit invoices to Cheniere as follows:

(i) twice per month for Project management, engineering and drafting, procurement services, and construction management services performed during the previous invoicing period. Charges shall be accumulated and invoiced on a rate reimbursable basis reflecting man-hours expended as described in Paragraph 1.2 of Attachment I to the Letter Agreement;

(ii) for permanent materials as set forth in Paragraph 1.3 of Attachment I to the Letter Agreement;

(iii) for the construction component of the Work as set forth in Paragraph 1.4 of Attachment I to the Letter Agreement;

(iv) for the Willbros Management Fee properly allocable to the completed Work. The Willbros Management Fee allocable to the completed Work shall be determined by multiplying the percentage completion of the Work by the total amount of the Willbros Management Fee payable to Willbros for the Project; and

(v) for Willbros’ portion of any Shared Savings upon Project Completion.

5.4.4 Invoice Format: Invoices shall be complete with sufficient detail and itemized to facilitate Cheniere’s confirmation and approval. Willbros’ invoices shall be in a format and supported by such documentation as required by Cheniere. Without limitation of the foregoing, Willbros shall, with each invoice, submit payrolls, xxxxx cash accounts, receipted invoices or invoices with check vouchers attached, and any other evidence required by Cheniere to demonstrate that cash disbursements already made by Willbros on account of the Cost of the Work equal or exceed (i) progress payments already received by Willbros; less (ii) that portion of those payments attributable to the Willbros Management Fee; plus (iii) payrolls for the period covered by the present invoice. Invoices shall show the percentage of completion of each portion of the Work as of the end of the period covered by the invoice. The percentage of completion shall be the lesser of: (1) the percentage of that portion of the Work which has actually been completed; or (2) the percentage obtained by dividing (a) the expense that has actually been incurred by Willbros on account of that portion of the Work for which Willbros has made or intends to make actual payment prior to the next invoice by (b) the share of the Guaranteed Maximum Price allocated to that portion of the Work in the Schedule of Values.

A-17

5.4.5 Payment Terms: Cheniere shall pay Willbros all undisputed amounts due hereunder within fifteen (15) days after receipt of a complete and accurate invoice for Work that is satisfactorily completed during that period.

5.4.6 Lien and Claim Waivers: Each progress invoice shall be accompanied by a fully executed Willbros’ Interim Lien and Claim Waiver in the form of Attachment X – Part 1, a fully executed Interim Lien and Claim Waiver in the form of Attachment X – Part 3 for each Subcontractor and Major Vendor, and such other evidence satisfactory to Cheniere to ensure that all amounts owed in connection with performance of this Agreement, including amounts owed to all Subcontractors and Vendors, have been paid. Waivers of liens and claims, however, will not be required from Subcontractors or Vendors until they have performed Work or furnished materials or equipment, and Willbros, Subcontractors and Major Vendors will be required to submit waivers of liens and claims only if they have performed Work or furnished materials or equipment not covered by a previous waiver. Receipt of all Interim Lien and Claim Waivers under this Paragraph 5.4.6 or all Final Lien and Claim Waivers required to meet the requirements of Paragraph 1.49, as applicable, is a condition precedent to payment of any amounts under an invoice.

5.4.7 Final Invoice: Prior to submission of a final invoice, Willbros shall perform an audit to determine the total Cost of the Work for the Project. Such audit shall also take into consideration Contingency Costs expended and the Willbros Management Fee in order to calculate the Actual Contract Amount in accordance with Paragraph 2.2 of Attachment I to the Letter Agreement. Willbros shall provide a copy of such audit report to Cheniere upon submission of Willbros’ final invoice. Cheniere’s accountants will review and report in writing on Willbros final audit within thirty (30) days after delivery thereof by Willbros. If Cheniere’s accountants report the Cost of the Work and Contingency Costs as substantiated by Willbros final audit to be less than claimed by Willbros, and Willbros disagrees with Cheniere’s accountants reporting of the Cost of the Work and Contingency Costs, Willbros has the right, within seven (7) days of its receipt of the Cheniere’s accountants’ report, to submit the Dispute for resolution in accordance with Paragraph 14. If Willbros fails to submit the Dispute within such seven (7) day period, Willbros shall be deemed to have agreed with Cheniere’s accountants report on the Cost of the Work and Contingency Costs. Final payment shall not be made until resolution of a Dispute under this Paragraph 5.4.7.

5.4.8 Unperformed Obligations: Project Completion and payments made hereunder shall not in any way release Willbros or any surety of Willbros or its Subcontractors from any unperformed obligations of the Agreement, including Warranties, compliance with the Agreement, liabilities for which insurance is required or any other responsibility of Willbros, including the payment of any and

A-18

all fines and penalties assessed as a result of Willbros’ failure to comply with Applicable Law or Applicable Codes and Standards.

5.4.9 Withholding: In addition to retainage and amounts withheld that are in dispute, Cheniere may, in addition to any other rights at law, in equity or under this Agreement, withhold amounts otherwise due by Cheniere to Willbros without payment of interest on account of: (a) Defective Work not remedied by Willbros in accordance with Paragraph 12; (b) the filing of claims or liens or evidence indicating the probable filing of claims or liens against Cheniere, the Project or the Work; (c) failure of Willbros to pay amounts when due for labor, services or material used by Willbros in performing the Work or amounts due to Subcontractors or Vendors as required in their respective subcontracts and purchase orders; (d) the assessment of any fines or penalties against Cheniere as a result of Willbros’ failure to comply with Applicable Law or Applicable Codes and Standards; or (e) any other circumstance permitted under this Agreement. If and when the cause, or causes, for withholding any such payment shall be remedied or removed and satisfactory evidence of such remedy or removal has been presented to Cheniere, the payments withheld shall be made to Willbros in the next invoice and if the final invoice has been paid, within thirty (30) days of such remedy or removal.

5.4.13 Schedule of Values: Attachment IV of the Letter Agreement sets forth the schedule of values allocating the entire Guaranteed Maximum Price among the various portions of the Work as of the Effective Date of the Agreement (“Schedule of Values”) to be used as a basis for reviewing the invoices. Willbros shall periodically, upon award of various components of the Work to Subcontractors and Vendors, submit to Cheniere for Cheniere’s written approval an updated Schedule of Values allocating the entire Guaranteed Maximum Price among the various portions of the Work, except that the Willbros Management Fee shall be shown as a separate line item. The updated Schedule of Values shall be prepared in such form and supported by such data to substantiate its accuracy as Cheniere may require. Each Cheniere-approved, updated Schedule of Values shall be incorporated into this Agreement by Change Order.

6. WORK PLAN AND REPORTS

6.1 Time for Performance: Willbros shall commence performance of the Work upon the Effective Date and shall perform the Work in accordance with the Project Schedule set forth in this Paragraph 6 and in Schedule “F”. TIME IS OF THE ESSENCE with respect to Willbros’ performance of the Work. Willbros may not commence a portion of the Work prior to the relevant commencement date, if any, listed below:

6.1.1 Willbros shall commence Work related to xxxx yard preparation and material receipt at the Work Site no earlier than January 01, 2007 (“Preparation and Material Receipt Commencement Date”). The Preparation and Material Receipt Commencement Date shall only be adjusted by Change Order as provided under this Agreement.

6.1.2 Willbros shall commence Work related to the construction of the Project at the Work Site no earlier than April 01, 2007 (“Construction Commencement Date”). The Construction Commencement Date shall only be adjusted by Change Order as provided under this Agreement.

6.1.3 Willbros shall achieve Mechanical Completion of the Project no later than September 30, 2007 (“Scheduled Mechanical Completion Date”) based on an April 1, 2007, release for construction. The Scheduled Mechanical Completion Date shall only be adjusted by Change Order as provided under this Agreement.

6.2 Work Plan: On or before February 28, 2006, Willbros shall prepare and submit to Cheniere’s Authorized Representative for review and written approval, a detailed critical path method schedule in a format approved by Cheniere (“Work Plan”). The Work Plan shall be based on and consistent with the Project Schedule, including the Preparation and Material Receipt Commencement Date, the Construction Commencement Date and the

A-20

Scheduled Mechanical Completion Date, shall show the method and order in which Willbros shall perform the Work, its subcontracting plan, and any other information that Cheniere may consider useful. The Work Plan shall represent Willbros’ best judgment as to how it shall achieve Mechanical Completion by the Scheduled Mechanical Completion Date, and shall be a detailed graphic representation of all significant aspects of the Work showing Willbros’ plans for performance of the Work. Without limitation of the foregoing, the Work Plan shall include separate activities for each portion of the Work, show the duration, early/late start dates, early/late finish dates and available float for each activity, show activity number, activity description and responsible Subcontractor or Vendor, and show an uninterrupted critical path from commencement of the Work through Project Completion.

6.3 Updated Work Plan: The Work Plan shall be used as the basis for progress reporting, schedule control and schedule forecasting. As reasonably requested by Cheniere, Willbros shall revise the Work Plan to include the effect of Change Orders and Amendments and to reflect actual Work in progress as agreed with Cheniere, provided, however, Willbros may not modify the Preparation and Material Receipt Commencement Date, the Construction Commencement Date or the Scheduled Mechanical Completion Date without a Change Order being executed in accordance with this Agreement. Each updated Work Plan shall provide the same details and form as required of the Work Plan. Willbros shall prepare schedule and cash flow forecasts on a monthly basis or as requested by Cheniere that reasonably predict the date for Mechanical Completion of the Project. Willbros shall notify Cheniere of any anticipated or actual slippage in the performance of the Work as compared to the Work Plan. Willbros shall provide to Cheniere weekly reports, monthly summaries of such reports, and upon request, all other relevant information concerning any circumstance or condition affecting the Work.

6.4 Progress Meetings: Work progress meetings between Authorized Representatives shall be held monthly between Cheniere and Willbros.

6.5 Recovery: If Willbros is responsible for any delays in the time and/or sequence of the performance of the Work that is on the critical path of the Work Plan, Willbros shall on its own initiative or at Cheniere’s written directive, employ such additional forces, obtain such additional equipment, employ such additional supervision, pay such additional overtime wages, and use such priority freight as may be required to bring the Work back on schedule. If Willbros’ progress is more than fourteen (14) days behind the critical path of the Work Plan, Cheniere may, without prejudice to any other remedies available to it under this Agreement, also require in writing that Willbros submit, within two (2) days of Cheniere’s written notice and for Cheniere’s approval, a recovery plan to Cheniere detailing Willbros’ proposal for bringing the Work back on schedule and that the sequence of the performance of the Work be changed. In no event shall such costs to bring the Work back on schedule cause the Guaranteed Maximum Price to be exceeded. This Paragraph 6.5 shall not be construed to require that Cheniere give Willbros a written notice to perform any of the acts listed herein, and the Parties agree that Cheniere’s

A-21

failure to give such written notice to Willbros shall not in any way relieve Willbros of its obligation to perform the Work within the times set forth in the Project Schedule.

6.6 Acceleration: Even if the Work is otherwise in compliance with the Work Plan, Cheniere may, at any time, direct Willbros to accelerate the Work by, among other things, establishing additional shifts, paying or authorizing overtime or providing additional equipment. In the event of this directive, Cheniere’s sole liability to Willbros shall be to pay Willbros for any documented costs clearly and solely attributable to such acceleration. Such costs may include any shift differential, premium, or overtime payments to workers or field supervisors and other employees of Willbros dedicated to the Work on a full-time basis actually incurred over and above Willbros’ normal rates, overtime charges for equipment, amounts to account for lost efficiency of workers and other costs agreed upon by Cheniere and Willbros in writing. Any adjustment to the Guaranteed Maximum Price resulting from Cheniere’s directive to accelerate the Work shall be implemented by Change Order.

7. INSPECTION AND TESTING

7.1 QA/QC Plan: On or before March 31, 2006, Willbros shall submit to Cheniere’s Authorized Representative, for review and written approval thereof, a quality assurance and quality control plan for materials procurement and for construction (“QA/QC Plan”). Cheniere’s review and approval of the QA/QC Plan shall in no way relieve Willbros of its responsibility for performing the Work in compliance with this Agreement.

7.2 Willbros’ Inspection and Testing of Work: Willbros shall inspect and test the overall and component parts of the Work, including that of its Subcontractors or Vendors, to ensure conformity of such Work with Applicable Codes and Standards, and all other obligations within this Agreement.

7.3 Cheniere Inspection of Work: All Work shall be subject to inspection by Cheniere or its designee at all times and at Cheniere’s own expense, to determine whether the Work conforms to the requirements of this Agreement. Willbros shall furnish Cheniere with access to all locations where Work is in progress, including locations not on the Work Site such as locations from where equipment and material are being obtained, including pipe fabrication and coating and factory testing of mainline valves.

7.4 Correction of Work Prior to Start-up: If, in the judgment of Cheniere, any Work is Defective or any Work is determined to be Defective as a result of the testing and inspections performed pursuant to Paragraph 7.2, then Willbros shall, at its own expense, promptly correct such Defective Work, whether by repair, replacement or otherwise. Subject to Willbros’ right to pursue a Dispute under Paragraph 14, the decision of Cheniere shall be conclusive as to whether the Work is conforming or Defective, and Willbros shall comply with the instructions of Cheniere in all such matters while pursuing any such Dispute. If it is later determined that the Work was not Defective, then Cheniere shall reimburse Willbros for all costs incurred in connection with such repair or

A-22

replacement and a Change Order shall be issued for such amount and shall address any impact the repair or replacement may have had on the Project Schedule. If Willbros fails, after a reasonable period of time not to exceed five (5) days, to repair or replace any Defective Work, or to commence to repair or replace any Defective Work and thereafter continue to proceed diligently to complete the same, then Cheniere may repair or replace such Defective Work and the expense thereof shall be paid by Willbros.

7.5 Notice to Cheniere and Cost of Disassembling: Willbros shall advise Cheniere’s Authorized Representative of tests to be witnessed sufficiently in advance to enable him or his designee to attend and witness such test at Cheniere’s expense. Willbros shall likewise advise Cheniere’s Authorized Representative in advance of any critical component of the Work to be closed or covered. If such action is taken by Willbros before an opportunity to inspect or witness has been provided to Cheniere, it must, if required by Cheniere, be opened or uncovered for inspection or witnessing and recovered at Willbros’ expense. The cost of disassembling, dismantling or making safe finished Work for the purpose of inspection, other than as set forth above, and reassembling such portions (and any delay associated therewith) shall be borne by Cheniere if such Work is found to conform with the requirements of this Agreement and by Willbros if such Work is found to be Defective.

7.6 No Obligation to Inspect: Cheniere’s right to conduct inspections under this Paragraph 7 shall not obligate Cheniere to do so. Neither the exercise of Cheniere of any such right, nor any failure on the part of Cheniere to discover or reject Defective Work shall be construed to imply an acceptance of such Defective Work or a waiver of such Defect.

8. COMPLETION AND START-UP

8.1 Mechanical Completion: Willbros shall comply with all requirements for Mechanical Completion, including as set forth in the definition of the term Mechanical Completion and elsewhere in this Agreement. When Willbros believes the Work is Mechanically Complete, Willbros shall certify to Cheniere in writing in the form of the Mechanical Completion Certificate attached hereto as Attachment III that all of the requirements for Mechanical Completion of the Work have occurred, including all documentation required to establish that the requirements for Mechanical Completion have been met. Within seven (7) days after receipt of such notice Cheniere shall inspect the Work and either accept the Work as being Mechanically Complete (which acceptance shall be evidenced by Cheniere’s signature on such Mechanical Completion Certificate), or specify the Exception Items which must be completed to achieve Mechanical Completion in a written notice to Willbros. Upon completion or correction of such Exception Items, Willbros shall so advise Cheniere. Within seven (7) days after receipt of such notice, Cheniere shall either accept the Work as being Mechanically Complete in the manner set forth above, or notify Willbros in writing of still unfinished or uncorrected Exception Items. If Exception Items remain unfinished or uncorrected, the foregoing procedure shall be repeated until the Work is Mechanically Complete.

When Willbros believes Start-up has been achieved, Willbros shall certify to Cheniere in writing in the form of the Start-up Certificate attached hereto as Attachment V that all of the requirements for achieving Start-up have occurred, including all documentation required to establish that the requirements for Start-up have been met. Within seven (7) days after receipt of such notice Cheniere shall inspect the Work and either accept the Work as having achieved Start-up (which acceptance shall be evidenced by Cheniere’s signature on such Start-up Certificate), or specify the Exception Items which must be completed to achieve Start-up in a written notice to Willbros. Upon completion or correction of such Exception Items, Willbros shall so advise Cheniere. Within seven (7) days after receipt of such notice, Cheniere shall either approve the Start-up of the Work in the manner set forth above, or notify Willbros in writing of still unfinished or uncorrected Exception Items. If Exception Items remain unfinished or uncorrected, the foregoing procedure shall be repeated until Start-up is achieved. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Cheniere has not commenced the introduction of either natural gas or nitrogen in accordance with Paragraph 1.57 within thirty (30) days of achievement of Mechanical Completion, then Start-up shall be deemed achieved upon the expiration of such thirty (30) day period, provided that Willbros has fully satisfied all other requirements for Start-up.

Upon completion or correction of such Exception Items, Willbros shall so advise Cheniere. Within seven (7) days after receipt of such notice, Cheniere shall either accept the Work as having achieved Project Completion in the manner set forth above, or notify Willbros in writing of still unfinished or uncorrected Exception Items.

12.2.5 Standards for Corrective Work: All Corrective Work shall be performed subject to the same terms and conditions under this Agreement as the original Work is required to be performed.

12.2.6 No Limitation: Nothing contained in this Paragraph 12.2 shall be construed to establish a period of limitation with respect to other obligations which Willbros might have under the Agreement. Establishment of the Defect Correction Period relates only to the specific obligation of Willbros to perform Corrective Work, and has no relationship to the time within which the obligation to comply with this Agreement may be sought to be enforced, nor to the time within which proceedings may be commenced to establish Willbros’ liability with respect to Willbros’ obligations other than specifically to perform Corrective Work. In addition, all representations, Warranties and obligations to perform Corrective

A-35

Work set forth in this Agreement, including those in this Paragraph 12, shall be in addition to and shall in no way limit Willbros’ obligation to perform all Work necessary to achieve Project Completion.

12.2.7 Vendor Correction of Work Warranties for Materials or Equipment: Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, with respect to any materials or equipment procured by Willbros from a Vendor, Willbros’ liability during the Defect Correction Period for such materials and equipment shall be limited to “passing through” to Cheniere the benefits of any correction of Work warranty received from the applicable Vendor, which correction of Work obligation shall be deemed to run to the benefit of Cheniere. Willbros shall use its best efforts to obtain a correction of Work warranty identical to Willbros’ correction of Work obligations set forth in Paragraph 12.2.2, but in no event shall such correction of Work obligations be less than industry standard and otherwise reasonable to protect Cheniere from Defective Work. Willbros shall use its best efforts to cause such Vendors to perform their obligations under such warranties, and shall cooperate with Cheniere’s efforts to enforce such warranties with any such Vendors. Willbros shall assign in full, and without cost to Cheniere, all such warranties from such Vendors. In the event of a Dispute during the Defect Correction Period as to whether Defective Work relates to a Defect in workmanship (and, therefore, is covered by Paragraph 12.2.2) or a Defect in material or equipment provided by a Vendor (and, therefore, is covered by this Paragraph 12.2.7), anything in this Paragraph notwithstanding, Willbros shall, at Cheniere’s direction and subject to the dispute resolution procedure set forth in Article 14, perform Corrective Work during the Defect Correction Period unless Willbros successfully causes such Vendor to perform its correction of Work obligations in accordance with the terms of the applicable purchase order.

12.3 Assignment and Enforcement of Subcontractor Warranties: Willbros shall, without additional cost to Cheniere, obtain Warranties from Subcontractors that meet or exceed the requirements of this Agreement; provided, however, Willbros shall not in any way be relieved of its responsibilities and liability to Cheniere under this Agreement, regardless of whether such Subcontractor Warranties meet the requirements of this Agreement, as Willbros shall be fully responsible and liable to Cheniere for its Warranty and corrective Work obligations and liability under this Agreement for all Work. All such Warranties shall be deemed to run to the benefit of Cheniere and Willbros. Such Warranties, with duly executed instruments assigning the Warranties to Cheniere, shall be delivered to Cheniere upon Start-up. All Warranties provided by any Subcontractor shall be in such form as to permit direct enforcement by Willbros or Cheniere against any Subcontractor whose Warranty is called for, and Willbros agrees that: (i) Willbros’ Warranty, as provided under this Paragraph 12 shall apply to all Work regardless of the provisions of any Subcontractor Warranty, and such Subcontractor Warranties shall be in addition to, and not a limitation of, such Willbros Warranty; (ii) Willbros is jointly and severally liable with such Subcontractor with respect to such Subcontractor Warranty; and (iii)

A-36

service of notice on Willbros that there has been a breach of a Subcontractor Warranty shall be sufficient to invoke the terms of the instrument.

12.4 Survival of Warranties: All representations and Warranties set forth in this Agreement, including those in this Paragraph 12, shall survive Project Completion or the earlier termination of this Agreement.

13. TITLE TO THE WORK AND TO WORK PRODUCT,

CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION

13.1 Title: The title to all or any portion of the Work (other than Work Product) shall pass to Cheniere upon the earlier of (a) payment by Cheniere therefore, or (b) incorporation of such Work into the Work Site. Notwithstanding the foregoing, title to all materials furnished by Cheniere, irrespective of the location thereof, as between Cheniere and Willbros or any Subcontractor or Vendor, shall be in Cheniere. Transfer of title to Work shall be irrespective of the passage of risk of loss pursuant to Paragraph 13.2 and shall be without prejudice to Cheniere’s right to reject Defective Work or any other right in this Agreement.

13.2 Risk of Loss: Notwithstanding passage of title pursuant to Paragraph 13.1, Willbros shall bear the risk of loss and damage to Work until the earlier of Start-up or termination of this Agreement; provided that Cheniere shall at all times bear the risk of physical loss and damage if and to the extent arising from (i) war (whether declared or undeclared), civil war, act of terrorism, sabotage, blockade, insurrection; or (ii) ionizing radiation, or contamination by radioactivity from nuclear fuel, or from any nuclear waste from the combustion of nuclear fuel properties of any explosive nuclear assembly or nuclear component thereof. In the event that any physical loss or damage to the Work arises from one or more of the events set forth in the preceding sentence, and Cheniere elects to rebuild such physical loss or damage, Willbros shall be entitled to a Change Order to the extent such event adversely affects (i) Willbros’ costs of performance of the Work; (ii) Willbros’ ability to perform the Work in accordance with the Work Plan or (iii) Willbros’ ability to perform any material obligation under this Agreement; provided that Willbros complies with the requirements set forth in Paragraphs 9.5 and 14.1.

13.3 Ownership of Work Product: Subject to Paragraph 13.4, all materials which Willbros or any Subcontractor or Vendor is required to furnish, prepare or develop in the performance and completion of Work hereunder (whether delivered to Cheniere or not), including reports, plans, Drawings and Specifications, calculations, maps, sketches, notes, data and samples (collectively, “Work Product”), shall be “works for hire,” and all rights, title and interests to the Work Product, including any and all copyrights in the Work Product, shall be the sole and exclusive property of Cheniere without limitation (except Willbros may retain a copy thereof in accordance with this Agreement), subject only to Willbros’ right to use the same to perform the Work. Such Work Product (including all copies thereof) shall, together with any materials furnished by Cheniere hereunder, be delivered to Cheniere upon request and in any event upon completion or termination of this

A-37

Agreement. All such Work Product shall be considered to be Cheniere’s Confidential Information and is subject to the confidentiality obligations in Paragraph 13.6. If for any reason any part of or all of the Work Product is not considered work for hire for Cheniere or if ownership of all right, title and interest in the Work Product shall not otherwise vest in Cheniere, then Willbros agrees that such ownership and copyrights in the Work Product, whether or not such Work Product is fully or partially complete, shall be automatically assigned from Willbros to Cheniere, without further consideration, and Cheniere shall thereafter own all right, title and interest in the Work Product, including all copyright interests.

13.4 Willbros Intellectual Property: As between Cheniere and Willbros, Willbros shall retain ownership of any intellectual property rights owned by Willbros or developed by Willbros outside this Agreement and prior to the Effective Date (“Willbros’ Intellectual Property”). To the extent any Willbros’ Intellectual Property is incorporated, in whole or in part, into the Work Product, Willbros shall provide prior written notice thereof to Cheniere. Cheniere shall be entitled to use Willbros’ Intellectual Property and Willbros hereby grants Cheniere an irrevocable and royalty-free license to use and modify Willbros’ Intellectual Property for the sole purposes of: (i) operating and maintaining the Project; (ii) assisting in the performance of the Work; or (iii) repairing, replacing, expanding, completing or modifying any portion of the Work or the Project. Cheniere shall be entitled to assign its rights in such license, provided that such assignee shall only use such license for the purposes specified in (i) through (iii) above.

13.5 Cheniere’s Use of the Work Product and Willbros’ Intellectual Property for Other Projects: In addition to the license granted in Paragraph 13.4, Cheniere shall be entitled to use the Work Product and Willbros hereby grants solely to Cheniere an irrevocable and royalty-free license, non-transferable and non-assignable (except as set forth below) to use Willbros’ Intellectual Property embedded in the Work Product, in each case solely for the purpose of developing other projects owned in whole or part by Cheniere, including the Corpus Christi and Creole Trail projects, provided that (i) Cheniere shall first remove all references to Willbros and the Project from the Work Product and Willbros’ Intellectual Property embedded in the Work Product, (ii) the use of any of Willbros’ Intellectual Property on such other projects shall be limited to such Willbros’ Intellectual Property which is embedded in the Work Product; and (iii) Cheniere shall not assign (except to an affiliated company of Cheniere) such Work Product or license without Willbros’ consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. CHENIERE SHALL DEFEND, INDEMNIFY AND HOLD WILLBROS HARMLESS FROM AND AGAINST ALL DAMAGES, LOSSES, COSTS AND EXPENSES (INCLUDING ALL REASONABLE ATTORNEYS’ FEES AND LITIGATION OR ARBITRATION EXPENSES) INCURRED BY WILLBROS AND CAUSED BY USE OF THE WORK PRODUCT OR WILLBROS’ INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY IN CONNECTION WITH PROJECTS OTHER THAN THE PROJECT WHICH IS THE SUBJECT OF THIS AGREEMENT.

A-38

13.6 Willbros’ Confidentiality Obligations: Willbros hereby covenants and warrants that Willbros and its employees and agents shall not (without in each instance obtaining Cheniere’s prior written consent) disclose, make commercial or other use of, or give or sell to any person or entity any of the following information: (i) any Work Product other than to Subcontractors or Vendors as necessary to perform the Work or (ii) any other information relating to the business, products, services, research or development, clients or customers of Cheniere or any member of the Cheniere Group, or relating to similar information of a third party who has entrusted such information to Cheniere or any member of the Cheniere Group (hereinafter individually or collectively, “Cheniere’s Confidential Information”). Prior to disclosing any information in (i) of this Paragraph 13.6 to any Subcontractor or Vendor as necessary to perform the Work, Willbros shall bind such Subcontractor or Vendor to the confidentiality obligations contained in this Paragraph 13.6 and to the term in Paragraph 13.11. Nothing in this Paragraph 13.6 or this Agreement shall in any way prohibit Willbros or any of its Subcontractors or Vendors from making commercial or other use of, selling, or disclosing any of their respective Willbros’ Intellectual Property.

13.7 Cheniere’s Confidentiality Obligations: Cheniere hereby covenants and warrants that Cheniere and its employees and agents shall not (without in each instance obtaining Willbros’ prior written consent) disclose, make commercial or other use of, or give or sell to any person or entity any pricing methodologies or pricing information (other than the Guaranteed Maximum Price or actual expenditures made by Willbros under this Agreement) relating to the Work, which is conspicuously marked and identified in writing as confidential by Willbros (hereinafter individually or collectively, “Willbros’ Confidential Information”). The Parties agree that Cheniere may disclose Willbros’ Confidential Information to any member of the Cheniere Group, underwriters, a bona fide prospective purchaser of all or a portion of Cheniere’s or any member of the Cheniere Group’s assets or ownership interests, a bona fide prospective assignee of all or a portion of Cheniere’s interest in this Agreement, lender and its representatives, rating agencies or any other party in relation to project financing for the Project, provided that Cheniere binds such persons or entity to the confidentiality obligations contained in this Paragraph 13.7 and to the term in Paragraph 13.11.

13.8 Definitions: The term “Confidential Information” shall mean one or both of Willbros’ Confidential Information and Cheniere’s Confidential Information, as the context requires. The Party having the confidentiality obligations with respect to such Confidential Information shall be referred to as the “Receiving Party,” and the Party to whom such confidentiality obligations are owed shall be referred to as the “Disclosing Party.”

13.9 Exceptions: Notwithstanding Paragraphs 13.6 and 13.7, Confidential Information shall not include: (i) information which at the time of disclosure or acquisition is in the public domain, or which after disclosure or acquisition becomes part of the public domain without violation of this Paragraph 13; (ii) information which at the time of disclosure or acquisition was already in the possession of the Receiving Party or its employees or

A-39

agents and was not previously acquired from the Disclosing Party or any of its employees or agents directly or indirectly; (iii) information which the Receiving Party can show was acquired by such entity after the time of disclosure or acquisition hereunder from a third party without any confidentiality commitment, if, to the best of Receiving Party’s or its employees’ or agent’s knowledge, such third party did not acquire it, directly or indirectly, from the Disclosing Party or any of its employees or agents; (iv) information independently developed by the Receiving Party without benefit of the Confidential Information, but specifically excluding the Work Product; and (v) information which is required by Applicable Law or other agencies in connection with the Project, to be disclosed; provided, however, that prior to such disclosure, the Receiving Party gives reasonable notice to the Disclosing Party of the information required to be disclosed so that the Disclosing Party may attempt to seek an appropriate protective order or other remedy.

13.10 Equitable Relief. The Parties acknowledge that in the event of a breach of any of the terms contained in this Paragraph 13, the Disclosing Party would suffer irreparable harm for which remedies at law, including damages, would be inadequate, and that the Disclosing Party shall be entitled to seek equitable relief therefor by injunction, in addition to any and all rights and remedies available to it at law and in equity, without the requirement of posting a bond.

13.11 Term. The confidentiality obligations of this Paragraph 13 shall survive the expiration or termination of this Agreement for a period of five (5) years following the expiration or earlier termination of this Agreement.

13.12 Disclosure and Filings. Willbros acknowledges that Cheniere may be required from time to time to make filings in compliance with Applicable Law, including filing a copy of this Agreement with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission.

14. DISPUTE RESOLUTION

14.1 Time Requirements for Claims: Should Willbros desire to seek an adjustment to the Guaranteed Maximum Price, the Project Schedule or any other modification to any other obligation of Willbros under this Agreement for any circumstance that Willbros has reason to believe may give rise to a right to request the issuance of a Change Order, Willbros shall, with respect to each such circumstance:

14.1.1 notify Cheniere in writing within fourteen (14) days of the date that Willbros knew or reasonably should have known of the first occurrence or beginning of such circumstance. In such notice, Willbros shall state in detail all known and presumed facts upon which its claim is based, including the character, duration and extent of such circumstance, the date Willbros first knew of such circumstance, any activities impacted by such circumstance, the cost and time consequences of such circumstance (including showing the impact of such circumstance, if any, on the critical path of the Work Plan) and any other details

A-40

or information that are expressly required under this Agreement. Willbros shall only be required to comply with the notice requirements of this Paragraph 14.1 once for continuing circumstances, provided the notice expressly states that the circumstance is continuing and includes Willbros’ best estimate of the time and cost consequences of such circumstance; and

14.1.2 submit to Cheniere a request for a proposed Change Order as soon as reasonably practicable after giving Cheniere written notice but in no event later than fourteen (14) days after the completion of each such circumstance, together with a written statement (i) detailing why Willbros believes that a Change Order should be issued, plus all documentation reasonably requested by or necessary for Cheniere to determine the factors necessitating the possibility of a Change Order and all other information and details expressly required under this Agreement; and (ii) setting forth the effect, if any, which such proposed Change Order would have for the Work on the Guaranteed Maximum Price and the Project Schedule.

The Parties acknowledge that Cheniere will be prejudiced if Willbros fails to provide the notice required under this Paragraph 14.1, and agree that such requirement is an express condition precedent necessary to any right for an adjustment in the Guaranteed Maximum Price, the Project Schedule, any Work or any other modification to any other obligation of Willbros under this Agreement. Oral notice, shortness of time, or Cheniere’s actual knowledge of a particular circumstance shall not waive, satisfy, discharge or otherwise excuse Willbros’ strict compliance with this Paragraph 14.1.

14.2 Negotiation: In the event that any claim, dispute or controversy arising out of or relating to this Agreement (including the breach, termination or invalidity thereof, and whether arising out of tort or contract) (“Dispute”) cannot be resolved informally within thirty (30) days after the Dispute arises, either Party may give written notice of the Dispute (“Dispute Notice”) to the other Party requesting that a representative of Cheniere’s senior management and Willbros’ senior management meet in an attempt to resolve the Dispute. Each such management representative shall have full authority to resolve the Dispute and shall meet at a mutually agreeable time and place within fourteen (14) days after receipt by the non-notifying Party of such Dispute Notice, and thereafter as often as they deem reasonably necessary to exchange relevant information and to attempt to resolve the Dispute. In no event shall this Paragraph 14.2 be construed to limit either Party’s right to take any action under this Agreement, including Cheniere’s termination rights. The Parties agree that if any Dispute is not resolved within thirty (30) days after receipt of the Dispute Notice given in this Paragraph 14.2, then either Party may by notice to the other Party refer the Dispute to be decided by final and binding arbitration in accordance with Paragraph 14.3.

14.3 Arbitration: Any arbitration held under this Agreement shall be held in Houston, Texas, unless otherwise agreed by the Parties, shall be administered by the Dallas, Texas office of the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) and shall, except as otherwise modified by this Paragraph 14.3, be governed by the AAA’s Construction Industry

A-41

Arbitration Rules and Mediation Procedures (including Procedures for Large, Complex Construction Disputes) (the “AAA Rules”). The number of arbitrators required for the arbitration hearing shall be determined in accordance with the AAA Rules. The arbitrator(s) shall determine the rights and obligations of the Parties according to the substantive law of the state of Texas, excluding its conflict of law principles, as would a court for the state of Texas; provided, however, the law applicable to the validity of the arbitration clause, the conduct of the arbitration, including resort to a court for provisional remedies, the enforcement of any award and any other question of arbitration law or procedure shall be the Federal Arbitration Act, 9 U.S.C.A. § 2. Issues concerning the arbitrability of a matter in dispute shall be decided by a court with proper jurisdiction. The Parties shall be entitled to engage in reasonable discovery, including the right to production of relevant and material documents by the opposing Party and the right to take depositions reasonably limited in number, time and place, provided that in no event shall any Party be entitled to refuse to produce relevant and non-privileged documents or copies thereof requested by the other Party within the time limit set and to the extent required by order of the arbitrator(s). All disputes regarding discovery shall be promptly resolved by the arbitrator(s). This agreement to arbitrate is binding upon the Parties, Willbros’ surety (if any) and the successors and permitted assigns of any of them. At Cheniere’s sole option, any other person may be joined as an additional party to any arbitration conducted under this Paragraph 14.3, provided that the party to be joined is or may be liable to either Party in connection with all or any part of any Dispute between the Parties. The arbitration award shall be final and binding, in writing, signed by all arbitrators, and shall state the reasons upon which the award thereof is based. The Parties agree that judgment on the arbitration award may be entered by any court having jurisdiction thereof.

14.4 Continued Performance: Notwithstanding any Dispute, so long as Cheniere continues to pay Willbros undisputed amounts in accordance with this Agreement, it shall be the responsibility of Willbros to continue to prosecute all of the Work diligently and in a good and workmanlike manner in conformity with this Agreement. Except to the extent provided in Xxxxxxxxx 00, Xxxxxxxx shall have no right to cease performance hereunder or to permit the prosecution of the Work to be delayed. Cheniere shall, subject to its right to withhold or offset amounts pursuant to this Agreement, continue to pay Willbros undisputed amounts in accordance with this Agreement; provided, however, in no event shall the occurrence of any negotiation or arbitration prevent or restrict Cheniere from exercising its rights under this Agreement, at law or in equity, including Cheniere’s right to terminate pursuant to Paragraphs 16 or 17.

15. SUSPENSION OF WORK

15.1 Suspension of Work: Cheniere may at any time, whether or not for cause, suspend performance of the Work, or any part thereof, by a Change Order specifying the Work to be suspended and the effective date of such suspension. Willbros shall cease performance of such suspended Work on the effective date of suspension, but shall continue to perform any unsuspended Work and shall take reasonable steps to minimize

A-42

any costs associated with such suspension. During any such suspension, Willbros shall take all reasonably necessary actions to maintain and safeguard the suspended Work in a manner as Cheniere may reasonably require. Except when such suspension ordered by Cheniere is the result of or due to the fault or negligence of Willbros or any Subcontractor or Vendor, Willbros shall be entitled to the reasonable costs (including actual, but not unabsorbed, overhead, contingency, risk and reasonable profit) of such suspension incurred during the suspension period, including demobilization and remobilization costs and costs incurred for Willbros Personnel and for Willbros Equipment, at the standby rates, if any, specified in the Letter Agreement, if necessary, along with appropriate supporting documentation to evidence such costs, and a time extension to the Preparation and Material Receipt Commencement Date, the Construction Commencement Date or the Scheduled Mechanical Completion Date if and to the extent permitted under Paragraph 20.2. In no event shall Willbros be entitled to any additional profits or damages due to such suspension.

15.2 Resumption of Work: Unless otherwise instructed by Cheniere, Willbros shall during any such suspension maintain its staff and labor on or near the Work Site and otherwise be ready to proceed expeditiously with the Work upon receipt of Cheniere’s further instructions. Cheniere may, at any time, authorize resumption of all or any part of the suspended Work by giving notice to Willbros specifying the part of Work to be resumed and the effective date of such resumption. Suspended Work shall be promptly resumed by Willbros after receipt of such notice.

16. TERMINATION AT CHENIERE’S CONVENIENCE

16.1 Cheniere’s Rights to Terminate for Convenience: Cheniere may, at any time and at its sole convenience, terminate the Agreement or any part of the Work by giving notice to Willbros specifying the Work to be terminated and the effective date of termination.

16.2 Obligations upon Termination for Convenience: Should Cheniere issue a termination notice in accordance with Paragraph 16.1, Willbros shall stop performance of the Work involved on the effective date of termination, unless Cheniere directs Willbros to complete portions of the Work in progress. Such termination shall be effective in the manner specified in the notice, and upon receipt of such notice, Willbros shall, unless the notice directs otherwise, comply with the obligations set forth in Paragraph 19. Upon such termination, it is agreed that the obligations of this Agreement shall continue as to Work already performed. It is further agreed in the event of such termination that the amounts due Willbros in full and complete settlement of this Agreement shall be the sum of the following:

16.2.1 The reasonable value of the Work satisfactorily performed prior to termination (the basis of payment being based on the terms of this Agreement, less previous payments, if any, paid to Willbros under this Agreement), plus

A-43

16.2.2 Reasonable direct close-out costs, but in no event shall Willbros be entitled to receive any amount for unabsorbed overhead, contingency or anticipatory profit.

Willbros shall submit all reasonable direct close-out costs to Cheniere for verification and audit within sixty (60) days following the effective date of termination.

17. TERMINATION BY CHENIERE FOR CAUSE

17.1 Default by Willbros: Should Willbros at any time: (a) commit a material breach of the Agreement; (b) cause, by any action or omission, any material stoppage or delay of or interference with the work of Cheniere or its other consultants or contractors; (c) fail to comply with Applicable Law or Applicable Codes and Standards; or (d) become insolvent, have a receiver appointed, make a general assignment or filing for the benefit of its creditors or file for bankruptcy protection, in which such case of insolvency, receivership or assignment the cure provisions found below shall not apply; then, in any such event and without prejudice to any other rights available under this Agreement, Cheniere may provide written notice to Willbros specifying the general nature of the default and demanding cure thereof. If, within seven (7) days after receipt of such notice Willbros has failed to cure such default, or if the default cannot be cured with the exercise of reasonable diligence within such seven (7) days but Willbros fails to commence corrective action and cure such condition within an additional fourteen (14) days, Cheniere may, at its option: (i) take such steps as are necessary to overcome the default or deficiency stated in its notice, in which case Willbros shall be liable to Cheniere for all related costs in connection therewith (including all attorneys’ fees, consultant fees and litigation or arbitration expenses) which may be offset by Cheniere at its option; or (ii) terminate for default Willbros’ performance of all or part of the Work.

17.2 Additional Rights of Cheniere upon Default Termination: In the case of termination for default, Cheniere may, at its option, either itself or through others complete the Work by whatever method Cheniere may deem expedient, including taking possession, for the purposes of completing the Work, of all Willbros Equipment and materials and/or taking assignment of any or all of Willbros subcontracts or purchase orders for the Project. In the event of termination under this Xxxxxxxxx 00, Xxxxxxxx shall not be entitled to receive any further payment until the Work shall be fully completed and accepted by Cheniere, and Willbros shall be liable to Cheniere for all costs, damages, losses and expenses (including all attorneys’ fees, consultant fees and litigation or arbitration expenses) incurred by Cheniere in completing the Work, either itself or through others, including all Liquidated Damages to the extent payable pursuant to Paragraph 21 of this Agreement.

17.3 Conversion: If any termination for default by Cheniere pursuant to Paragraph 17.1 is found to be not in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement or is otherwise deemed to be unenforceable, then such termination shall be deemed to be a termination for convenience as provided in Paragraph 16.

A-44

18. TERMINATION BY WILLBROS

Should Cheniere fail to pay Willbros undisputed invoiced amounts when due under this Agreement, Willbros may demand in writing that Cheniere comply with the payment terms of this Agreement. If, within forty-five (45) days after Cheniere’s receipt of such a demand, Cheniere has not taken satisfactory steps to cure such failure, Willbros may, without prejudice to the exercise of any other rights or remedies which may be available to it, terminate this Agreement by giving Cheniere written notice to that effect. Such termination hereunder by Willbros shall be effective on the date specified in Willbros’ termination notice. In the event of termination under this Xxxxxxxxx 00, Xxxxxxxx have the rights (and Cheniere shall make the payments) provided for in Paragraph 16 in the event of a Cheniere termination for convenience. The right of Willbros to terminate this Agreement for cause shall be without prejudice to, and not in lieu of, any other remedies available to Willbros under this Agreement.

19. WILLBROS’ OBLIGATIONS UPON SUSPENSION OR TERMINATION

19.1 Willbros’ Obligations: If the Agreement or any portion of the Work is suspended or terminated as provided in Paragraphs 15, 16, 17, or 18 and if Cheniere so requests, Willbros shall:

19.1.1 immediately discontinue Work on the date and to the extent specified in the notice;

19.1.2 place no further orders for subcontracts, materials, equipment, or any other items or services except as may be necessary for completion of such portion of the Work as is not discontinued, thereafter execute only that portion of the Work not terminated (if any);

19.1.3 inventory, maintain and turn over to Cheniere all Willbros Equipment or any other equipment or other items provided by Cheniere for performance of the terminated Work;

19.1.4 promptly make every reasonable effort to procure cancellation upon the best terms as are reasonably obtainable under the circumstances and which are satisfactory to Cheniere of any or all subcontracts, purchase orders and rental agreements to the extent they relate to the performance of the Work that is discontinued unless Cheniere elects to take assignment of any such subcontracts, purchase orders and rental agreements pursuant to Paragraph 19.2;

19.1.5 cooperate with Cheniere in the transfer of Work Product, including Drawings, licenses and any other items or information and disposition of Work in progress so as to mitigate damages;

19.1.6 comply with other reasonable requests from Cheniere regarding the terminated Work;

A-45

19.1.7 do whatever is necessary to preserve and protect Work in progress, to protect materials, equipment and supplies in transit or at the Work Site for the Project, to comply with any Applicable Law and any Applicable Codes and Standards, and to minimize all costs to Cheniere and Willbros resulting from such suspension or termination; and

19.1.8 perform all other obligations under Paragraph 17.2.

19.2 Assignment of Subcontracts and Other Agreements: If the Agreement or any portion of the Work is suspended or terminated as provided in Paragraphs 15, 16, 17, or 18, Cheniere may, at its sole option, take assignment of any or all subcontracts, purchase orders and rental agreements.

20. FORCE MAJEURE AND CHENIERE-CAUSED DELAY

20.1 Force Majeure:

20.1.1 Willbros Relief: If the commencement, prosecution or completion of any Work is delayed by Force Majeure, then Willbros shall be entitled to an extension to the Scheduled Mechanical Completion Date to the extent, if any, permitted under Paragraph 20.1.1.1 and an adjustment to the Guaranteed Maximum Price to the extent, if any, permitted under Paragraph 20.1.1.2, provided that Willbros complies with the notice and Change Order request requirements in Paragraph 14.1 and the mitigation requirements in Paragraph 20.4. All time extensions to the Project Schedule and adjustments to the Guaranteed Maximum Price for such delays shall be by Change Order implemented and documented as required under Paragraph 9.

20.1.1.1 Willbros shall be entitled to an extension to the Scheduled Mechanical Completion Date for delay that meets the requirements of Paragraph 20.1.1 if and to the extent such delay affects the performance of any Work that is on the critical path of the Work Plan and causes Willbros to achieve Mechanical Completion beyond the Scheduled Mechanical Completion Date, but only if Willbros is unable to proceed with other portions of the Work so as not to cause a delay in the Scheduled Mechanical Completion Date.

20.1.1.2 Willbros shall be entitled to an adjustment to the Guaranteed Maximum Price for any delay or prevention that meets the requirements of Paragraph 20.1.1, if such delay or prevention occurs for a continuous period of at least five (5) days in any thirty (30) day period. If Willbros is entitled to such adjustment to the Guaranteed Maximum Price, the adjustment to the Guaranteed Maximum Price shall only include reimbursement for the standby time for Willbros’ employees and Willbros Equipment and other standby expenses which are incurred by Willbros after the expiration of such five (5) day period and which

A-46

are caused by such Force Majeure and the effects thereof. Willbros shall take all reasonable measures, pursuant to Paragraph 20.4, to mitigate the standby and other Force Majeure costs it incurs, and shall cooperate with Cheniere to help overcome such Force Majeure event. Reimbursement for such standby expenses and other Force Majeure costs shall be subject to an aggregate amount of One Million Five Hundred Thousand Dollars (U.S.$ 1,500,000).

20.1.2 Cheniere Relief. Subject to Paragraph 20.1.3, Cheniere’s obligations under this Agreement shall be suspended to the extent that performance of such obligations is delayed by Force Majeure, but only if Cheniere notifies Willbros of the existence of such event of Force Majeure within fourteen (14) days after its occurrence and complies with the mitigation requirements in Paragraph 20.4.

20.1.3 Payment Obligations: No obligation of a Party to pay moneys under or pursuant to this Agreement shall be excused by reason of Force Majeure.

20.2 Cheniere-Caused Delay: Should Cheniere or any person or entity acting on behalf of or under the control of Cheniere (including to any third party contractors working in connection with the Project) delay the commencement, prosecution or completion of the Work, and if such delay is not in any way attributable to Willbros or its Subcontractors or Vendors but is caused by (a) Cheniere’s or such person or entity’s active interference in the Work, (b) Cheniere’s ordering a Change in the Work (provided that a Change Order has been issued in accordance with Paragraph 9), or (c) Cheniere’s or such person or entity’s failure to perform its material obligations pursuant to this Agreement, including the failure to provide access to the Work Site in accordance with Paragraph 5.2, then Willbros shall be entitled to an adjustment in the Guaranteed Maximum Price and an extension to the Scheduled Mechanical Completion Date if (i) such delay affects the performance of any Work that is on the critical path of the Work Plan, (ii) such delay causes Willbros to complete the Work beyond the Scheduled Mechanical Completion Date, (iii) Willbros is unable to proceed with other portions of the Work so as not to cause a delay in the Scheduled Mechanical Completion Date and (iv) Willbros complies with the notice and Change Order request requirements in Paragraph 14.1 and the mitigation requirements of Paragraph 20.4. Any adjustment to the Guaranteed Maximum Price shall be for reasonable, additional direct costs incurred by Willbros for such delay meeting the requirements of this Paragraph 20.2, and any adjustments to the Guaranteed Maximum Price or the Project Schedule shall be recorded in a Change Order.

20.3 Delay: For the purposes of Paragraph 20, the term “delay” shall include hindrances, disruptions or obstructions, or any other similar term in the industry and the resulting impact from such hindrances, disruptions or obstructions, including inefficiency, impact, or lost production.

20.4 Obligation to Mitigate Delay: At all times in the event of a delay, the Parties shall take reasonable actions to mitigate such delay.

21. LIQUIDATED DAMAGES

21.1 Liquidated Damages: If Mechanical Completion occurs after the Scheduled Mechanical Completion Date, Willbros shall pay Cheniere in amounts according to the following schedule for each day of delay until Mechanical Completion occurs (“Liquidated Damages”):

21.1.1 one (1) through thirty (30) days after the Scheduled Mechanical Completion Date: Zero U.S. Dollars ($0) per day; and

21.1.2 thirty-one (31) days through sixty (60) days inclusive after the Scheduled Mechanical Completion Date at Five Thousand Dollars ($5,000) per day;

21.1.3 sixty-one (61) days through ninety (90) days inclusive after the Scheduled Mechanical Completion Date at Seven Thousand Dollars ($7,000) per day; and

21.1.4 ninety-one (91) days and thereafter until Mechanical Completion is achieved at Ten Thousand Dollars ($10,000) per day.

Provided, however, in no event shall such Liquidated Damages exceed the total sum of Five Hundred Sixty Thousand Dollars ($560,000), provided that such limitation of liability shall not be construed to limit Willbros’ other obligations or liabilities under this Agreement (including its obligations (i) to complete the Work for the compensation provided under this Agreement, (ii) to perform all Work required to achieve Start-up and Project Completion, and (iii) with respect to Warranties), nor shall such limitation of liability apply in the event of Willbros’ willful misconduct (including the willful refusal to perform the Work, willful delay in performing the Work or abandonment of the Work) or gross negligence.

21.2 Liquidated Damages Not a Penalty: It is expressly agreed that Liquidated Damages payable under this Agreement do not constitute a penalty and that the Parties, having negotiated in good faith for such specific Liquidated Damages and having agreed that the amount of such Liquidated Damages is reasonable in light of the anticipated harm caused by the breach related thereto and the difficulties of proof of loss and inconvenience or nonfeasibility of obtaining any adequate remedy, are estopped from contesting the validity or enforceability of such Liquidated Damages. In the event any Liquidated Damages are held to be unenforceable due to the urging by or on behalf of any member of the Willbros Group, Willbros specifically agrees to pay Cheniere all actual damages incurred by Cheniere in connection with such breach, including any and all consequential damages (such as loss of profits and revenues, business interruption, loss of opportunity and use) and all costs incurred by Cheniere in proving the same.

21.3 Payment of Liquidated Damages: With respect to any Liquidated Damages that accrue, Cheniere, at its sole discretion, may either (i) invoice Willbros for such owed Liquidated Damages, and within thirty (30) days of Willbros’ receipt of such invoice, Willbros shall

A-48

pay Cheniere Liquidated Damages, or (ii) withhold from Willbros amounts that are otherwise due and payable to Willbros in the amount of such Liquidated Damages. In addition, with respect to the achievement of Mechanical Completion, Willbros shall pay Cheniere all Liquidated Damages, if any, owed under this Agreement as a condition precedent to achieving such Mechanical Completion.

22. PUBLICITY RELEASES

Should Willbros or any of its Subcontractors or Vendors desire to publish or release any publicity or public relations materials of any kind relating to the Agreement specifically or the Project generally, Willbros shall first submit such material to Cheniere for review. Willbros shall not publish or release any such material without Cheniere’s prior consent, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld.

23. GOVERNING LAW

It is understood that the Agreement is governed by the laws of the State of Texas except to the extent its conflict of law principles would refer to the law of another jurisdiction, the Parties acknowledge that the laws of Louisiana govern the rights and obligations of the Parties as to the validity and enforcement of mechanics’ and materialmen’s liens. Only to the extent that either Party may seek relief of the courts pursuant to this Agreement, Cheniere and Willbros each hereby submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of the federal and state courts located in Houston, Texas, and agree that service of process may be affected upon them by delivery to the addresses given in the Signature Document.

24. GENERAL PROVISIONS

24.1 Assignment: The Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the successors and assigns of the Parties to the Agreement. The Agreement may neither be assigned nor transferred by either Party, either in whole or in part, without first obtaining the written consent of the other Party, and any attempt to make such an assignment shall be void; provided, however, that Willbros reserves the right to pledge or assign its rights to payment under this Agreement in accordance with its agreements with its lenders; provided further, however, that in no event shall a pledge or assignment of rights to payment by Willbros create or impose any additional obligation on Cheniere or otherwise void or preclude any rights or privileges of Cheniere or any member of the Cheniere Group under this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Cheniere may freely assign this Agreement, in whole or in part, without Willbros’ consent to any affiliate or successor of Cheniere or to any third party making a loan to Cheniere or purchasing the Project.

24.2 Ownership and Transfer: Cheniere represents that, once title is transferred as provided in this Agreement, it is the sole owner of the Project. Cheniere further agrees that any future transferee of any interest in the Project will be subject to the releases and limitations of liability set forth in the Agreement such that the total aggregate liability of Willbros to

A-49

Cheniere and such recipients shall not exceed, relative to any transferee, the limits of liability set forth in the Agreement.

24.3 No Waiver: No benefit or right accruing to either Party under the Agreement shall be waived unless the waiver is reduced to writing and signed by both Parties. The waiver, in one instance, of any act, condition or requirement stipulated in the Agreement shall not constitute a continuing waiver or a waiver of any act, condition or requirement or a waiver of the same act, condition or requirement in other instances, unless specifically so stated.

24.4 Status of Willbros: Willbros shall be and always remain an independent contractor with respect to the Work performed under the Agreement. Neither Willbros, its Subcontractors, its Vendors, nor the Willbros Personnel shall be deemed to be the servants, agents or employees of Cheniere. Willbros shall exercise control, management and direction over the details and means of performing the Work and shall be subject to the directions of Cheniere only with respect to the scope and general results required.

24.5 Third Party Beneficiaries: This Agreement shall not be deemed for the benefit of any third party nor shall it give any person not a Party to the Agreement any right to enforce its provisions.

24.6 Survival: The provisions of Paragraphs 9.6, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20 and 23 shall survive the final settlement or termination of the Agreement, for whatever reason.

24.7 Severability: Any term or provision of the Agreement judicially determined to be invalid or unenforceable to any entity or circumstance shall be deemed, to such extent, invalid or unenforceable, but the remainder of the Agreement shall remain unaffected and be enforceable according to its terms.

24.8 Headings: The headings hereof shall not be considered in interpreting the text of the Agreement and are inserted for convenience of reference only.

24.9 Further Assurances: Each Party shall perform the acts and execute and deliver the documents and give reasonable assurances necessary to give effect to the provisions of the Agreement; provided that Cheniere shall only be required to give any such assurances upon a material change in the creditworthiness of Cheniere or upon any other significant adverse change to Cheniere. Any assurances required under this Paragraph 24.9 shall not involve the assumption of obligations greater than those provided for in this Agreement.

24.10 Entire Agreement: This Agreement supersedes all previous quotations, proposals, letter agreements, contracts, agreements, understandings and correspondence between the Parties regarding the Work, and constitutes the entire agreement between the Parties concerning the Work. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Parties acknowledge that the Letter Agreement shall be simultaneously executed with this Agreement. No promise, agreement, representation or modification to the Agreement shall be of any force or effect

A-50

between the Parties unless expressly set forth or provided for in the Agreement, a Change Order or an Amendment.

24.11 Interpretation: The word “include” or “including” shall mean including without limitation. The words “hereof”, “herein”, “hereunder” and “hereto” refer to the Agreement as a whole, including the Schedules, and not to any particular provision of the Agreement unless expressly indicated. Unless the context clearly requires otherwise, references to the plural include the singular and the singular the plural. References to “days” or a “day” shall mean a calendar day, unless otherwise stated. Where a Party’s approval or acceptance is required, such approval or acceptance shall not be unreasonably delayed.

24.12 Lender Requirements: In addition to other assurances provided in this Agreement, Willbros acknowledges that Cheniere has obtained or may obtain financing, which may be project financing, associated with the Work, and Willbros agrees to cooperate with Cheniere and Cheniere’s lenders in connection with such Project financing, including entering into direct agreements with such lenders, as reasonably required by such lenders, covering matters that are customary in project financings of this type such as lender assignment or security rights with respect to this Agreement, consent agreements, opinions of counsel, direct notices to lender and lender’s independent engineer, step-in/step-out rights, access by lender’s representative, including lender’s independent engineer, and other matters applicable to such Project financing. Willbros shall cooperate with any independent engineer retained by Cheniere’s lender(s) in the conduct of such independent engineers’ duties in relation to the Project, including the Work. No review, approval or disapproval by any independent engineer shall serve to reduce or limit the liability of Willbros to Cheniere under this Agreement.

ATTACHMENT I

WILLBROS’ PARENT GUARANTEE

This GUARANTEE (this “Guarantee”) effective February 01, 2006, is made by Willbros USA, Inc. organized under the laws of the State of Delaware (“Guarantor”), in favor of Cheniere Sabine Pass Pipeline Company, a company organized under the laws of the State of Delaware (“Owner,” and, together with Guarantor, each a “Party” and, collectively, the “Parties”). Capitalized terms used, but not otherwise defined, herein shall have the respective meanings ascribed to such terms in the Agreement (as defined below).

RECITALS

WHEREAS, Owner has agreed to enter into the Agreement for the Engineering, Procurement and Construction of the 42-inch Sabine Pass Pipeline dated February 01, 2006, with Willbros Engineers, Inc. (“Willbros”) for the engineering, procurement, construction, commissioning, start-up and testing of the 42-inch Sabine Pass Pipeline Project (the “Project”) located in Cameron Parish, Louisiana and a letter agreement dated February 01, 2006, with Willbros (collectively, the “Agreement”), which are hereby incorporated by reference in this Guarantee and made a part hereof; and

WHEREAS, Willbros is a subsidiary of Guarantor; and

WHEREAS, it is a condition to Owner and Willbros’ entering into the Agreement that Guarantor execute and deliver this Guarantee.

NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the promises and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the Parties hereby agree as follows:

1. Guarantee.

(a) On the terms and subject to the conditions contained herein, Guarantor hereby unconditionally and irrevocably guarantees, to and for the benefit of Owner, the full and punctual performance and payment, as and when each such payment or performance becomes due (whether at the stated due date, by acceleration or otherwise), by or on behalf of Willbros of any and all obligations or amounts owed by Willbros to Owner in connection with and to the extent provided for in the Agreement (the “Guaranteed Obligations”). The Guaranteed Obligations of Guarantor hereunder are direct and primary obligations.

(b) This Guarantee is an unconditional, present, and continuing guarantee of performance and payment, and not of collection, is in no way conditioned or contingent upon any attempt to collect from or enforce performance or payment by Willbros or upon any other event, contingency or circumstance whatsoever, and shall remain in full force and effect and be binding upon and against Guarantor and its successors and permitted assigns (and shall inure to the benefit of Owner and its successors, endorsees, transferees, and permitted assigns), without

A-53

regard to the validity or enforceability of the Agreement. If, for any reason, Willbros shall fail or be unable duly, punctually, and fully to perform or pay, as and when such performance or payment is due, any of the Guaranteed Obligations, Guarantor shall promptly perform or pay, or cause to be performed or paid, such Guaranteed Obligations.

(c) Guarantor agrees that any judgment from any litigation (or any award resulting from any arbitration, if Owner and Willbros should agree to arbitrate) between Willbros and Owner under the Agreement (whether in contested litigation or arbitration, by default or otherwise) shall be conclusive and binding on the Parties for the purposes of determining Guarantor’s obligations under the Guarantee.

(d) Guarantor further agrees to pay to Owner any and all costs, expenses (including, without limitation, all reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel), and damages which may be paid or incurred by Owner in enforcing any rights with respect to this Guarantee, including, without limitation, collecting against Guarantor under this Guarantee.

2. Obligations Unconditional, Continuing; Etc.

Guarantor agrees that the obligations of Guarantor set forth in this Guarantee shall be direct obligations of Guarantor, and such obligations shall be irrevocable and unconditional, shall not be subject to any counterclaim, set-off, deduction, diminution, abatement, recoupment, suspension, deferment, reduction or defense (other than full and strict compliance with its obligations hereunder) based upon any claim Guarantor or any other person may have against Owner or any other person and shall remain in full force and effect without regard to and shall not be released, discharged or in any way affected or impaired by, any circumstance or condition whatsoever (other than full and strict compliance by Guarantor with its obligations hereunder) (whether or not Guarantor shall have any knowledge or notice thereof), including, without limitation: (i) any amendment or modification of or supplement to or other change in the Agreement or any other document, including, without limitation, any change order, renewal, extension, acceleration or other changes to payment terms thereunder; (ii) any failure, omission or delay on the part of Owner or any other person to confirm or comply with any term of the Agreement, (iii) any waiver, consent, extension, indulgence, compromise, release or other action or inaction under or in respect of the Agreement or any other document or any obligation or liability of Owner or any other person, or any exercise or non-exercise of any right, remedy, power, or privilege under or in respect of any such instrument or agreement or any such obligation or liability, other than as expressly set forth in writing executed by Owner and Guarantor; (iv) any bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, arrangement, readjustment, liquidation, or similar proceeding with respect to Owner, Willbros or any other person or any of their respective properties, or any action taken by any trustee or receiver or by any court in any such proceeding; (v) any discharge, termination, cancellation, invalidity or unenforceability, in whole or in part, of the Agreement or any other document or any term or provision thereof; (vi) any merger or consolidation of Guarantor or Willbros into or with any other person or any sale, lease, or transfer of all or any of the assets of Guarantor or Willbros; (vii) any change in the ownership of Guarantor or Willbros; (viii) any winding up or dissolution of Willbros; or (ix) to the extent permitted under Applicable Law, any other occurrence or circumstance whatsoever, whether similar or dissimilar to the foregoing, which might otherwise constitute a legal or

A-54

equitable defense or discharge of the liabilities of guarantor or surety or which might otherwise limit recourse against Guarantor. Guarantor reserves the right to (a) set-off against any payment that has become due and payable by the Owner to Willbros under the Agreement and (b) assert defenses which Willbros may have under or with respect to the Agreement to performance of any Guaranteed Obligations other than defenses arising from the bankruptcy or insolvency of Willbros or Willbros’ failure to have the authority to (x) execute or deliver the Agreement or (y) perform its obligations under the Agreement. The Guaranteed Obligations constitute the full recourse obligations of Guarantor enforceable against it to the full extent of all its assets and properties. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Guarantor agrees that repeated and successive demands may be made and recoveries may be had hereunder as and when, from time to time, Willbros shall fail to perform obligations or pay amounts owed by Willbros under the Agreement and that notwithstanding the recovery hereunder for or in respect of any given failure to so comply by Willbros under the Agreement, this Guarantee shall remain in full force and effect and shall apply to each and every subsequent such failure.

3. Reinstatement. Guarantor agrees that this Guarantee shall be automatically reinstated with respect to any payment made by or on behalf of Willbros pursuant to the Agreement if and to the extent that such payment is rescinded or must be otherwise restored, whether as a result of any proceedings in bankruptcy or reorganization or otherwise.

4. Waiver of Demands, Notices; Etc. Guarantor hereby unconditionally waives, to the extent permitted by Applicable Law: (i) notice of any of the matters referred to in Paragraph 2 hereof; (ii) all notices which may be required by Applicable Law, or otherwise, now or hereafter in effect, to preserve any rights against Guarantor hereunder, including, without limitation, any demand, proof, or notice of non-payment or non-performance of any Guaranteed Obligation; (iii) any right to the enforcement, assertion, or exercise of any right, remedy, power, or privilege under or in respect of the Agreement; (iv) notice of acceptance of this Guarantee, demand, protest, presentment, notice of failure of performance or payment, and any requirement of diligence; (v) any requirement to exhaust any remedies or to mitigate any damages resulting from failure of performance or payment by Willbros under the Agreement or by any other person under the terms of the Agreement; and (vi) any other circumstance whatsoever which might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge, release, or defense of a guarantor or surety, or which might otherwise limit recourse against Guarantor.

5. No Subrogation. Notwithstanding any performance, payment or payments made by Guarantor hereunder (or any set-off or application of funds of Guarantor by Owner), Guarantor shall not be entitled to be subrogated to any of the rights of Willbros or of any rights of Owner hereunder, or any collateral, security, or guarantee or right of set-off held by Owner, for the performance or payment of the obligations guaranteed hereunder, nor shall Guarantor seek or be entitled to assert or enforce any right of contribution, reimbursement, indemnity or any other right to payment from Willbros as a result of Guarantor’s performance of its obligations pursuant to this Guarantee until all Guaranteed Obligations are performed or paid in full. If any amount shall be paid to Guarantor on account of such subrogation, contribution, reimbursement or indemnity rights at any time when all of the Guaranteed Obligations and all amounts owing hereunder shall not have been performed and paid in full, such amount shall be held by Guarantor in trust for Owner, segregated from other funds of Guarantor, and shall, forthwith

A-55

upon receipt by Guarantor, be turned over to Owner in the exact form received by Guarantor (duly endorsed by Guarantor to Owner, if required), to be applied against the Guaranteed Obligations, whether or not matured, in such order as Owner may determine.

6. Representations and Warranties. Guarantor represents and warrants that:

(a) it is a corporation duly organized and validly existing under the laws of the State of Delaware and has the corporate power and authority to execute, deliver and carry out the terms and provisions of the Guarantee;

(b) the execution, delivery and performance of this Guarantee will not conflict with, violate or breach the terms of any agreement of Guarantor;

(c) no authorization, approval, consent or order of, or registration or filing with, any court or other governmental body having jurisdiction over Guarantor is required on the part of Guarantor for the execution and delivery of this Guarantee; and

(d) this Guarantee, when executed and delivered, will constitute a valid and legally binding agreement of Guarantor, except as the enforceability of this Guarantee may be limited by the effect of any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or similar laws affecting creditors’ rights generally and by general principles of equity as they apply to the Guarantor.

7. Miscellaneous.

(a) This Guarantee shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the Parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns. Guarantor may not assign or transfer this Guarantee or any rights or obligations hereunder without Owner’s prior written consent. Owner may assign this Guarantee, in whole or part, to any of its affiliates or co-venturers or to any person jointly controlled by Owner and any co-venturers. Furthermore, Owner may assign, pledge and/or grant a security interest in this Guarantee to any lender without Guarantor’s consent. Except as otherwise provided in this Paragraph 7, nothing herein, express or implied, is intended or shall be construed to confer upon or to give to any person other than the Parties hereto any rights, remedies, or other benefits.

(b) This Guarantee shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the state of Texas, without giving effect to the principles thereof relating to conflicts of law.

(c) The Parties agree that any claim, dispute, controversy, difference, disagreement, or grievance (of any and every kind or type, whether based on contract, tort, statute, regulation or otherwise) arising out of, connected with, or relating in any way to this Guarantee (including, without limitation, the construction, validity, interpretation, termination, enforceability or breach of this Guarantee, the relationship of the Parties established by this Guarantee, or any dispute over arbitrability or jurisdiction) (“Dispute”) shall be decided by final and binding arbitration. Any arbitration held under this Guarantee shall be held in Houston, Texas, unless otherwise agreed by the Parties, shall be administered by the Dallas, Texas office of the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) and shall, except as otherwise modified by this Paragraph 7(c),

A-56

be governed by the AAA’s Construction Industry Arbitration Rules and Mediation Procedures (including Procedures for Large, Complex Construction Disputes) (the “AAA Rules”). The number of arbitrators required for the arbitration hearing shall be determined in accordance with the AAA Rules. The arbitrator(s) shall determine the rights and obligations of the Parties according to the substantive law of the state of Texas, excluding its conflict of law principles, as would a court for the state of Texas; provided, however, the law applicable to the validity of the arbitration clause, the conduct of the arbitration, including resort to a court for provisional remedies, the enforcement of any award and any other question of arbitration law or procedure shall be the Federal Arbitration Act, 9 U.S.C.A. § 2. Issues concerning the arbitrability of a matter in dispute shall be decided by a court with proper jurisdiction. The Parties shall be entitled to engage in reasonable discovery, including the right to production of relevant and material documents by the opposing Party and the right to take depositions reasonably limited in number, time and place, provided that in no event shall any Party be entitled to refuse to produce relevant and non-privileged documents or copies thereof requested by the other Party within the time limit set and to the extent required by order of the arbitrator(s). All disputes regarding discovery shall be promptly resolved by the arbitrator(s). This agreement to arbitrate is binding upon the Parties and the successors and permitted assigns of any of them. At Owner’s sole option, any other person may be joined as an additional party to any arbitration conducted under this Paragraph 7(c), provided that the party to be joined is or may be liable to either Party in connection with all or any part of any Dispute between the Parties. The arbitration award shall be final and binding, in writing, signed by all arbitrators, and shall state the reasons upon which the award thereof is based. The Parties agree that judgment on the arbitration award may be entered by any court having jurisdiction thereof.

(d) No modification or amendment of this Guarantee shall be of any force or effect unless made in writing, signed by the Parties hereto, and specifying with particularity the nature and extent of such modification or amendment. This Guarantee constitutes the entire and only understanding and agreement among the Parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof and cancels and supersedes any prior negotiations, proposals, representations, understandings, commitments, communications, or agreements, whether oral or written, with respect to the subject matter hereof.

(e) All notices, requests and communications to a Party hereunder shall be in writing (including telecopy and/or fax or similar writing) and shall be sent:
