Xxxx Xxxxxxxx Trail Cryogenic Gas Plant	Page 40
Engineering and Construction Agreement # BK17056EC	18261184v.16 139990/00005

termination will become effective as of the date of such notice unless otherwise agreed by the parties hereto.

ii. Following any termination by Linn pursuant to this Section 25.1 other than a Termination for Cause:

a. The calculation of the Contract Price will be converted from a lump sum basis to a time and materials basis for the costs actually incurred and paid by BCCK between the Effective Date and the date notice is given of termination of this Agreement (including uncancellable commitments, man-hours charges, cancellation fees, demobilization of Subcontractors, overhead cost and expenses but only to the extent of increases in such costs and expenses caused by the termination of the Project, and any other charges directly related to the Xxxx Xxxxxxxx Trail Cryogenic Gas Plant), provided that BCCK shall provide Linn proof of such payment.

b. Subject to the foregoing provisions of this Section 25.1, the Contract Price shall be equal to the sum of:

1. The cost for Work performed by BCCK and BCCK’s Affiliates shall be based on the applicable rate sheet set forth in Schedule "B";

2. The cost for Work performed by persons and entities other than BCCK and BCCK’s Affiliates shall be the actual net cost (after deducting credits, rebates, refunds and other similar amounts) paid by BCCK for such Work plus the lesser of (X) seven and one-half percent (7.5%) of the costs under this item 2 and (Y) an amount equal to $500,000 plus $150,000 for each month after the fourth month following the Effective Date, e.g. if the Effective Date is June 15, 2017 and Linn terminates between November 15, 2017 and December14, 2017, then the amount under clause (Y) would be $800,000, being $500,000 plus two (2) times $150,000.

c. BCCK may offset any part or the entire amount owed to BCCK by Linn as the result of any such early termination against any unused portion of Milestone payments received by BCCK, with the balance of such Milestone payments, if any, to be promptly refunded to Linn. If the unused portion of the Milestone payments is not sufficient to pay BCCK for the amount due, then the shortfall shall be promptly paid by Linn to BCCK. Further, title to equipment, materials, and supplies shall be promptly delivered to Linn or the amount paid by Linn for said equipment credited against the amount owed to BCCK.

iii. In the event of a Termination for Cause, Linn shall pay to (or receive from) BCCK the amount Linn is obligated to pay or receive by law, as applicable.

iv. In the event of a termination of this Agreement, BCCK shall promptly after such termination, provide Linn with any and all back-up and support documentation to calculate the amount due under this Agreement, and Linn shall have audit rights as specified in Section 3.3.

v. The term “Termination for Cause” means a termination of this Agreement by Linn (a) pursuant to Section 25.2 below, (b) as a result of BCCK’s failure, within two (2) days after Linn’s request, to develop and implement a recovery plan (acceptable to Linn) to bring the prosecution of the Work back on schedule and to reasonably assure the occurrence of the Mechanical Completion Date on or before the Target Completion Date (as adjusted for Excusable Delay) and to thereafter diligently prosecute the Work and keep on schedule, (c) as a result of a breach by BCCK of any of its obligations under this Agreement, (d) as a result of BCCK’s repetitive failure to design or construct any portion of the Project in accordance with applicable Legal Requirements, the Drawings, Plans, and Specifications, or in a good and workmanlike manner with new materials and in accordance with Industry Standards, or (e) following the knowingly release of any Hazardous Substances at the Project Site by BCCK, its Subcontractors, or any of BCCK’s Personnel, which is reasonably believed by Linn to cost in excess of the Maximum Liability Amount to remediate in accordance with Legal Requirements.

25.2 Termination for Bankruptcy or Insolvency

Either party may terminate this Agreement immediately upon written notice given to the other party in the event of:

i. The entry against such other party of a decree or unstayed order by a court of competent jurisdiction for relief under Title 11 of the United States Code or any other applicable federal or state bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar law, or the appointment of a receiver, liquidator, assignee, trustee, sequestrator or other similar official or the imposition of an order to wind up or liquidate affairs and the continuance of any such decree or order unstayed and in effect for a period of thirty (30) consecutive days; or
