CAUTIONARY NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q (“Quarterly Report”) and certain other communications made by us contain forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), including, among others, our expected growth from recent acquisitions, expected performance, expectations regarding the success of our distributed power business, future operating results, oil and natural gas demand and prices and the outlook for the oil and gas industry, power demand and outlook for the power industry, future global economic conditions, the impact of worldwide political, military and armed conflict (including the impact of the ongoing conflict with Iran and the closure of the Strait of Hormuz), the impact of announcements and changes in oil production quotas by oil exporting countries, improvements in operating procedures and technology, our business strategy and the business strategies of our customers, the impact of policy, legislative, and regulatory changes, the deployment of fleets in the future, planned capital expenditures, future cash flows and borrowings, pursuit of potential acquisition opportunities, our financial position, return of capital to stockholders, business strategy and objectives for future operations in addition to other estimates, and beliefs. For this purpose, any statement that is not a statement of historical fact should be considered a forward-looking statement. We may use the words “estimate,” “outlook,” “project,” “forecast,” “position,” “potential,” “likely,” “believe,” “anticipate,” “assume,” “plan,” “expect,” “intend,” “achievable,” “may,” “will,” “continue,” “should,” “could” and similar expressions to help identify forward-looking statements. However, the absence of these words does not mean that the statements are not forward-looking. We cannot assure you that our assumptions and expectations will prove to be correct. Important factors, many of which are beyond our control, could cause our actual results to differ materially from those indicated or implied by forward-looking statements, including but not limited to the risks and uncertainties described in our most recently filed Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025, (the “Annual Report”), this Quarterly Report, and other filings that we make with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). We undertake no intention or obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements, except as required by law, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise and readers should not rely on the forward-looking statements as representing the Company’s views as of any date subsequent to the date of the filing of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. These forward-looking statements are based on management’s current belief, based on currently available information, as to the outcome and timing of future events.
All forward-looking statements, expressed or implied, included in this Quarterly Report are expressly qualified in their entirety by this cautionary statement. This cautionary statement should also be considered in connection with any subsequent written or oral forward-looking statements that we or persons acting on our behalf may issue.

Note 1—Organization and Basis of Presentation
Organization
Liberty Energy Inc. (the “Company”), together with its consolidated subsidiaries, is a leading integrated energy services and technology company focused on providing innovative completions services and related technologies to onshore oil and natural gas and enhanced geothermal exploration and production (“E&P”) companies. We offer customers completions services, including hydraulic fracturing, wireline services, proppant delivery solutions, field gas processing, compressed natural gas (“CNG”) delivery, data analytics, related goods (including our sand mine operations), and technologies to facilitate lower emission completions, thereby helping our customers reduce their emissions profile.
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements were prepared using generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and the instructions to Form 10-Q and Regulation S-X. Accordingly, these financial statements do not include all information or notes required by GAAP for annual financial statements and should be read together with the annual financial statements and notes thereto included in the Annual Report.
The U.S. dollar is the reporting currency and functional currency for most of our operations except certain of our foreign subsidiaries, which use their local currencies as their functional currency. Assets and liabilities of these foreign subsidiaries are translated into U.S. dollars using the exchange rates in effect as of the balance sheet date. The effects of these translation adjustments are reflected in accumulated other comprehensive income included in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive income.
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes present the condensed consolidated financial position of the Company as of June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, the results of operations and equity of the Company as of and for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, and cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025. The interim data includes all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair presentation of the results for the interim period. The results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations expected for the entire fiscal year ended December 31, 2026. Further, these estimates and other factors, including those outside the Company’s control, such as the impact of sustained lower commodity prices, could have a significant adverse impact to the Company’s financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows.
All intercompany amounts have been eliminated in the presentation of the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company. Our chief operating decision maker (“CODM”), the Chief Executive Officer, manages the Company’s business activities as a single operating and reportable segment at the consolidated level. Accordingly, our CODM uses consolidated net income to measure segment profit or loss, allocate resources, and assess performance. Further, the CODM is regularly provided with and utilizes consolidated functional expenses, as presented in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations, and total assets at the consolidated level, as included in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets herein, to manage the Company’s operations.

Note 2—Significant Accounting Policies
Recently Issued Accounting Standards
Financial Instruments: Credit Losses - Measurement of Credit Losses for Accounts Receivable
In July 2025, the FASB issued ASU No. 2025-05—Financial Instruments—Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses for Accounts Receivable and Contract Assets, which added a practical expedient that assumes that current conditions as of the balance sheet date do not change for the remaining life of the asset when estimating expected credit losses for current accounts receivable and current contract assets. The guidance is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2025 and is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements.
Intangibles: Internal-Use Software
In September 2025, the FASB issued ASU No. 2025-06—Intangibles—Goodwill and Other—Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40): Targeted Improvements to the Accounting for Internal-Use Software, which removed the language around project stages that was previously used to assess when costs could be capitalized for an internal-use software. The update also requires internal-use software to be disclosed under the ASC 360 Property, Plant, and Equipment guidance. The guidance is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2027. The Company is currently assessing the impact of this ASU on the Company’s accounting policies and the financial statements.
Income Statement - Reporting Comprehensive Income - Expense Disaggregation Disclosures: Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses
In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU No. 2024-03, Income Statement - Reporting Comprehensive Income - Expense Disaggregation Disclosures: Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses, which requires disclosure of specified information about certain costs and expenses. The guidance is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2026 and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2027. The Company is currently assessing the impact of this ASU on the Company’s financial statements.
Environmental Credits and Environmental Credit Obligations
In May 2026, the FASB issued ASU No. 2026-02, Environmental Credits and Environmental Credit Obligations (Topic 818), which establishes an accounting framework for the recognition, measurement, presentation, and disclosure of environmental credits and related obligations. The guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2027, including interim periods within those fiscal years, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently assessing the impact of this ASU on the Company’s financial statements.
Reclassifications
Certain amounts in the prior period financial statements have been reclassified to conform to current period financial statement presentation. In the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets $38.5 million, $24.3 million, and $8.1 million were reclassified from investment in Oklo Inc., investment in Tamboran Resources Corporation, and investment in Nomad Proppant Services LLC, respectively, to investments. Similarly, $53.0 million was reclassified from other assets to investments.
In the accompanying Note 8—Fair Value Measurements and Financial Instruments, we have added a table and other accompanying disclosure to provide the investment detail, some of which was previously on the face of the consolidated balance sheets.
IMG Acquisition
On March 3, 2025, the Company completed the acquisition of IMG Energy Solutions, a leading developer of distributed power systems, for cash consideration of approximately $19.6 million, subject to normal closing adjustments and net of cash received (the “IMG Acquisition”). The IMG Acquisition was accounted for under the acquisition method of accounting for business combinations. Accordingly, the Company conducted assessments of the net assets acquired and recognized amounts for identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed at their estimated acquisition date fair values, while transaction and integration costs associated with the acquisition were expensed as incurred. In connection with the IMG Acquisition, the Company recorded goodwill and intangible assets of $12.6 million, property and equipment of $5.1 million, other long-term assets of $1.8 million, and net working capital of $0.1 million. Goodwill and intangible assets are recorded in other assets in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets. Due to the immateriality of the IMG Acquisition, the related revenue and earnings, supplemental pro forma financial information, and detailed purchase price allocation are not disclosed.

During the three months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, the Company recognized depreciation expense of $99.7 million and $111.8 million, respectively. During the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, the Company recognized depreciation expense of $199.2 million and $222.7 million, respectively. Depletion expense for each of the three months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025 was $0.3 million. Depletion expense for each of the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025 was $0.6 million.
As of June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, the Company concluded that no triggering events that could indicate possible impairment of property and equipment had occurred, other than related to the assets held for sale as discussed below.
As of June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, the Company classified $4.0 million of land and $12.7 million of buildings, net of accumulated depreciation, of three properties that it intends to sell within the next year, and that meet the held for sale criteria, to assets held for sale, included in prepaid and other current assets in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets. The Company estimates that the carrying values of the assets are less than the fair values less the estimated costs to sell and therefore no loss was recorded during the six months ended June 30, 2026.
Note 5—Leases
The Company has operating and finance leases primarily for vehicles, equipment, railcars, office space, and facilities. The terms and conditions for these leases vary by the type of underlying asset.
Certain leases include variable lease payments for items such as property taxes, insurance, maintenance, and other operating expenses associated with leased assets. Payments that vary based on an index or rate are included in the measurement of lease assets and liabilities at the rate as of the commencement date. All other variable lease payments are excluded from the measurement of lease assets and liabilities, and are recognized in the period in which the obligation for those payments is incurred.

The Company’s vehicle leases typically include a residual value guarantee. For the Company’s vehicle leases classified as operating leases, the total residual value guaranteed as of June 30, 2026 is $13.0 million; the payment is not probable and therefore has not been included in the measurement of the lease liability and right-of-use asset. For vehicle leases that are classified as finance leases, the Company includes the residual value guarantee, estimated in the lease agreement, in the financing lease liability.
Lessor Arrangements
The Company leases dry and wet sand containers, conveyor belts, and other equipment to customers through operating leases, where the lessor for tax purposes is considered to be the owner of the equipment during the term of the lease. The lease agreements do not include options for the lessee to purchase the underlying asset at the end of the lease term for either a stated fixed price or fair market value. The majority of the lease agreements are short-term in nature and contain a termination clause in which the customer can cancel the contract. The leases can be subject to variable lease payments if the customer requests more units than what is agreed upon in the lease. The Company does not record any lease assets or liabilities related to these variable items.
The carrying amount of lease equipment, included in property, plant and equipment, that are leased to others under an operating lease or are available to lease as of June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025 were as follows:

2031 Convertible Senior Notes and Capped Call Transactions
2031 Convertible Senior Notes
On February 6, 2026, the Company issued $770.0 million aggregate principal amount 0.00% convertible senior notes due March 1, 2031 (the “2031 Notes”), including the exercise in full of the initial purchasers’ option to purchase up to an additional $70.0 million principal amount of the 2031 Notes. The 2031 Notes were issued pursuant to an indenture dated February 6, 2026, by and between the Company and U.S. Bank Trust Company, National Association, as trustee. The 2031 Notes are general unsecured, senior obligations of the Company. The 2031 Notes do not bear regular interest, and the principal amount of the 2031 Notes does not accrete. Net proceeds from the offering of the 2031 Notes were $746.0 million after deducting the initial purchasers’ discounts and commissions and offering expenses paid by the Company, without giving effect to the capped call transactions related to the 2031 Notes. Until December 1, 2030, the convertible senior notes can only be converted upon satisfaction of certain market conditions or upon the occurrence of specific corporate events. After that date, the notes are freely convertible.
The initial conversion rate for the 2031 Notes will be 28.9830 shares of Class A Common Stock, par value $0.01 per share (the “Class A Common Stock”), per $1,000 principal amount of the 2031 Notes (equivalent to an initial conversion price of approximately $34.50 per share of Class A Common Stock, which represents a premium of approximately 32.5% over the last reported sale price of the Class A Common Stock on the New York Stock Exchange (the “NYSE”) on February 3, 2026). Upon conversion, the Company will pay cash up to the aggregate principal amount of the 2031 Notes to be converted and pay or deliver, as the case may be, cash, shares of Class A Common Stock, or a combination of cash and shares of Class A Common Stock, at the election of the Company, in respect of the remainder, if any, of the Company’s conversion obligation in excess of the aggregate principal amount of the notes being converted.
The Company may redeem for cash all or any portion of the 2031 Notes, at its option, on or after March 1, 2029 and before the 21st scheduled trading day immediately preceding the maturity date if the last reported sale price of the Class A Common Stock has been at least 130% of the conversion price of the 2031 Notes then in effect for at least 20 trading days (whether or not consecutive) during any 30 consecutive trading day period (including the last trading day of such period) ending on, and including, the trading day immediately preceding the date on which the Company provides notice of redemption at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the 2031 Notes to be redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid special interest, if any, to, but excluding, the redemption date.

If the Company undergoes a Fundamental Change (as defined in the indenture governing the 2031 Notes), then, subject to certain conditions and limited exceptions, holders of the 2031 Notes may require the Company to repurchase for cash all or any portion of their 2031 Notes at a repurchase price equal to 100% of the principal amount to be repurchased, plus accrued and unpaid special interest, if any, to, but excluding, the redemption date. In addition, following certain corporate events that occur prior to the maturity date of the 2031 Notes or if the Company delivers a notice of redemption in respect of the 2031 Notes, the Company will, in certain circumstances, increase the conversion rate of the 2031 Notes for a holder who elects to convert its 2031 Notes in connection with such a corporate event or convert the 2031 Notes called (or deemed called) for redemption during the related redemption period, as the case may be.
The indenture governing the 2031 Notes contains customary covenants and sets forth certain events of default after which the 2031 Notes may be declared due and payable and sets forth certain types of bankruptcy or insolvency events of default involving the Company after which the 2031 Notes become automatically due and payable. The indenture governing the 2031 Notes limits the Company’s ability to merge or consolidate with other entities, or sell, convey, transfer or lease all or substantially all of the consolidated properties and assets of the Company and its subsidiaries, taken as a whole, to another person, unless resulting, surviving or transferee person satisfies certain requirements and assumes the Company’s obligations under the indenture. The Company was in compliance with all covenants as of June 30, 2026.
Capped Calls
In connection with the issuance of the 2031 Notes, the Company entered into privately negotiated capped call transactions relating to the 2031 Notes with certain of the initial purchasers or their respective affiliates and certain other financial institutions at a cost of approximately $109.3 million. The capped call transactions will cover, subject to certain anti-dilution adjustments, the number of shares of Class A Common Stock initially underlying the 2031 Notes. The cap price of the capped call transactions related to the 2031 Notes will initially be approximately $65.10 per share, which represents a premium of 150% over the last reported sale price of Class A Common Stock of $26.04 on the NYSE on February 3, 2026, and is subject to certain adjustments under the terms of the Capped Call Transactions.
The capped call transactions related to the 2031 Notes are expected generally to reduce the potential dilution to the Class A Common Stock upon conversion of any 2031 Notes and/or offset any cash payments the Company is required to make in excess of the principal amount of converted 2031 Notes, as the case may be, with such reduction and/or offset subject to a cap. The capped call transactions related to the 2031 Notes are included in additional paid-in capital in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets as of June 30, 2026, with no remeasurement in subsequent periods as it meets the tax integration criteria for equity classification.
The Company elected to integrate the 2031 Notes and related capped call transactions for federal income tax purposes pursuant to applicable U.S. Treasury Regulations. The impact of this tax treatment results in the capped call transactions of $109.3 million being deductible as original discount interest for tax purposes over the term of the 2031 Notes. In March 2026 the Company recorded a deferred tax asset of $24.9 million with respect to the 2031 Notes, which represents the tax benefit of these deductions with an offsetting entry to additional paid-in capital.
2032 Convertible Senior Notes and Capped Call Transactions
2032 Convertible Senior Notes
On March 30, 2026, the Company issued $525.0 million aggregate principal amount 0.00% convertible senior notes due March 1, 2032 (the “2032 Notes”), including the exercise in full of the initial purchasers’ option to purchase up to an additional $50.0 million principal amount of the 2032 Notes. The 2032 Notes were issued pursuant to an indenture dated March 30, 2026, by and between the Company and U.S. Bank Trust Company, National Association, as trustee. The 2032 Notes are general unsecured, senior obligations of the Company. The 2032 Notes do not bear regular interest, and the principal amount of the 2032 Notes does not accrete. Net proceeds from the offering of the 2032 Notes were $511.3 million after deducting the initial purchasers’ discounts and commissions and offering expenses paid by the Company, without giving effect to the capped call transactions related to the 2032 Notes. Until December 1, 2031, the convertible senior notes can only be converted upon satisfaction of certain market conditions or upon the occurrence of specific corporate events. After that date, the notes are freely convertible.
The initial conversion rate for the 2032 Notes will be 26.7094 shares of Class A Common Stock per $1,000 principal amount of the 2032 Notes (equivalent to an initial conversion price of approximately $37.44 per share of Class A Common Stock, which represents a premium of approximately 30.0% over the last reported sale price of the Class A Common Stock on the NYSE on March 25, 2026). Upon conversion, the Company will pay cash up to the aggregate principal amount of the 2032 Notes to be converted and pay or deliver, as the case may be, cash, shares of Class A Common Stock, or a combination of cash and shares of Class A Common Stock, at the election of the Company, in respect of the remainder, if any, of the Company’s conversion obligation in excess of the aggregate principal amount of the notes being converted.
The Company may redeem for cash all or any portion of the 2032 Notes, at its option, on or after March 1, 2029 and before the 21st scheduled trading day immediately preceding the maturity date if the last reported sale price of the Class A

Common Stock has been at least 130% of the conversion price of the 2032 Notes then in effect for at least 20 trading days (whether or not consecutive) during any 30 consecutive trading day period (including the last trading day of such period) ending on, and including, the trading day immediately preceding the date on which the Company provides notice of redemption at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the 2032 Notes to be redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid special interest, if any, to, but excluding, the redemption date.
If the Company undergoes a Fundamental Change (as defined in the indenture governing the 2032 Notes), then, subject to certain conditions and limited exceptions, holders of the 2032 Notes may require the Company to repurchase for cash all or any portion of their 2032 Notes at a repurchase price equal to 100% of the principal amount to be repurchased, plus accrued and unpaid special interest, if any, to, but excluding, the redemption date. In addition, following certain corporate events that occur prior to the maturity date of the 2032 Notes or if the Company delivers a notice of redemption in respect of the 2032 Notes, the Company will, in certain circumstances, increase the conversion rate of the 2032 Notes for a holder who elects to convert its 2032 Notes in connection with such a corporate event or convert the 2032 Notes called (or deemed called) for redemption during the related redemption period, as the case may be.
The indenture governing the 2032 Notes contains customary covenants and sets forth certain events of default after which the 2032 Notes may be declared due and payable and sets forth certain types of bankruptcy or insolvency events of default involving the Company after which the 2032 Notes become automatically due and payable. The indenture governing the 2032 Notes limits the Company’s ability to merge or consolidate with other entities, or sell, convey, transfer or lease all or substantially all of the consolidated properties and assets of the Company and its subsidiaries, taken as a whole, to another person, unless resulting, surviving or transferee person satisfies certain requirements and assumes the Company's obligations under the indenture. The Company was in compliance with all covenants as of June 30, 2026.
Capped Calls
In connection with the issuance of the 2032 Notes, the Company entered into privately negotiated capped call transactions relating to the 2032 Notes with certain of the initial purchasers or their respective affiliates and certain other financial institutions at a cost of approximately $77.2 million. The capped call transactions will cover, subject to certain anti-dilution adjustments, the number of shares of Class A Common Stock initially underlying the 2032 Notes. The cap price of the capped call transactions related to the 2032 Notes will initially be approximately $72.00 per share, which represents a premium of 150% over the last reported sale price of Class A Common Stock of $28.80 on the NYSE on March 25, 2026, and is subject to certain adjustments under the terms of the capped call transactions.
The capped call transactions related to the 2032 Notes are expected generally to reduce the potential dilution to the Class A Common Stock upon conversion of any 2032 Notes and/or offset any cash payments the Company is required to make in excess of the principal amount of converted 2032 Notes, as the case may be, with such reduction and/or offset subject to a cap. The capped call transactions related to the 2032 Notes are included in additional paid-in capital in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets as of June 30, 2026, with no remeasurement in subsequent periods as it meets the tax integration criteria for equity classification.

In March 2026 the Company recorded a deferred tax asset of $17.6 million with respect to the 2032 Notes, which represents the tax benefit of these deductions with an offsetting entry to additional paid-in capital.

Note 8—Fair Value Measurements and Financial Instruments
The fair values of the Company’s assets and liabilities represent the amounts that would be received to sell those assets or that would be paid to transfer those liabilities in an orderly transaction on the reporting date. These fair value measurements maximize the use of observable inputs. However, in situations where there is little, if any, market activity for the asset or liability on the measurement date, the fair value measurement reflects the Company’s own judgments about the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability. The Company discloses the fair values of its assets and liabilities according to the quality of valuation inputs under the following hierarchy:
Level 1 Inputs: Quoted prices (unadjusted) in an active market for identical assets or liabilities.
Level 2 Inputs: Inputs other than quoted prices that are directly or indirectly observable.
Level 3 Inputs: Unobservable inputs that are significant to the fair value of assets or liabilities.
The classification of an asset or liability is based on the lowest level of input significant to its fair value. Those that are initially classified as Level 3 are subsequently reported as Level 2 when the fair value derived from unobservable inputs is inconsequential to the overall fair value, or if corroborating market data becomes available. Assets and liabilities that are initially reported as Level 2 are subsequently reported as Level 3 if corroborating market data is no longer available. Transfers occur at the end of the reporting period. No transfers between Levels 1, 2, or 3 occurred during the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025.
The Company’s financial instruments consist of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, notes receivable, investments in equity securities, accounts payable, accrued liabilities, long-term debt, and finance and operating lease obligations. The carrying values of all of the Company’s financial instruments included in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets approximated or equaled their fair values on June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025.
The carrying values of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, and accounts payable (including accrued liabilities) approximated fair value on June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, due to their short-term nature.
The carrying value of investments in equity securities were measured at fair value on June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025 based on quoted prices in active markets.
The carrying value of amounts outstanding under long-term debt agreements with variable rates approximated fair value on June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, as the effective interest rates approximated market rates. Long-term debt agreements that are not remeasured at fair value include the 2031 Notes and the 2032 Notes. As of June

(Unaudited)
30, 2026, the estimated fair value of the convertible senior notes was $1.3 billion, which was based on observable market prices in less active markets and were categorized as Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy.
The carrying values of amounts outstanding under finance and operating lease obligations approximated fair value on June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, as the effective borrowing rates approximated market rates.
Nonrecurring Measurements
Certain assets and liabilities are measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis. These items are not measured at fair value on an ongoing basis but may be subject to fair value adjustments in certain circumstances. These assets and liabilities include those acquired through the IMG Acquisition, which are required to be measured at fair value on the acquisition date in accordance with ASC Topic 805. See Note 2—Significant Accounting Policies.
As of June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025 the Company classified $4.0 million of land and $12.7 million of buildings, net of accumulated depreciation, of three properties that it intends to sell within the next year, and that meet the held for sale criteria, to assets held for sale, included in prepaid and other current assets in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets. The Company estimated the fair value of the properties based on the listed selling price for the three properties, which is a Level 3 input. The Company estimates that the carrying values of the assets are less than the fair values less the estimated costs to sell, and therefore no loss was recorded during the six months ended June 30, 2026.
Recurring Measurements
The fair values of the Company’s cash equivalents measured on a recurring basis pursuant to ASC 820-10 Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures are carried at estimated fair value. Cash equivalents consist of money market accounts which the Company has classified as Level 1 given the active market for these accounts. As of June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, the Company had cash equivalents measured at fair value of $518.7 million and $0.3 million, respectively.
The following table presents the balances of the investments measured at their fair value as of June 30, 2026:

In addition to the above investments, the Company holds an investment in Fervo Energy Company (“Fervo”), which completed an initial public offering during the second quarter of 2026 and is traded on the New York Stock Exchange. Prior to the initial public offering, the investment didn’t have a readily determinable fair value, and the Company monitored its investment to identify potential transactions that may indicate an observable price change in orderly transactions for the identical or a similar investment of the same issuer, requiring adjustment to its carrying amount. Following the initial public offering, the fair value of the investment in Fervo became readily determinable, and the use of the measurement alternative was no longer applicable. The Company now measures this investment at fair value on a recurring basis using Level 1 inputs based on quoted market prices in an active market.
Nonfinancial assets
The Company estimates fair value to perform impairment tests as required on long-lived assets and equity method investments. The inputs used to determine such fair value are primarily based upon internally developed cash flow models and would generally be classified within Level 3 in the event that such assets were required to be measured and recorded at fair value within the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements. No such measurements were required as of June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025 as no triggering event was identified.
Credit Risk
The Company’s financial instruments exposed to concentrations of credit risk consist primarily of cash and cash equivalents, and trade receivables.    
The Company’s cash and cash equivalent balances on deposit with financial institutions total $555.4 million and $27.6 million as of June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, respectively, which exceeded Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation insured limits. The Company regularly monitors these institutions’ financial condition.
The majority of the Company’s customers have payment terms of 45 days or less.
As of June 30, 2026, Customer A accounted for 10% of total consolidated accounts receivable and unbilled revenue. As of December 31, 2025, Customer A accounted for 16% of total consolidated accounts receivable and unbilled revenue.
As of June 30, 2026 and 2025, the below customers accounted for the following percentages of the Company’s consolidated accounts receivable and unbilled revenue and consolidated revenues, respectively:

The Company applies historic loss factors to its receivable portfolio segments that are not expected to be further impacted by current economic developments, and an additional economic conditions factor to portfolio segments anticipated to experience greater losses in the current economic environment. While the Company has not experienced significant credit losses in the past and has not seen material changes to the payment patterns of its customers, the Company cannot predict with any certainty the degree to which unforeseen events may affect the ability of its customers to timely pay receivables when due. Accordingly, in future periods, the Company may revise its estimates of expected credit losses.
As of June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, the Company had $0.9 million and $0.9 million, respectively, in allowance for credit losses as follows:

Share Repurchase Program
On July 25, 2022, the Company’s board of directors (the “Board”) authorized and the Company announced a share repurchase program that allowed the Company to repurchase the Company’s Class A Common Stock. As of June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, the cumulative repurchase authorization was $750.0 million through July 31, 2026. The shares may be repurchased from time to time in open market transactions, through block trades, in privately negotiated transactions, through derivative transactions, or by other means in accordance with applicable state and federal securities laws. The timing, as well as the number and value of shares repurchased under the program, will be determined by the Company at its discretion and will depend on a variety of factors, including management’s assessment of the intrinsic value of the Company’s Class A Common Stock, the market price of the Company’s Class A Common Stock, general market and economic conditions, available liquidity, compliance with the Company’s debt and other agreements, applicable legal requirements, and other considerations. The exact number of shares to be repurchased by the Company is not guaranteed, and the program may be suspended, modified, or discontinued at any time without prior notice. The Company expects to fund any repurchases by using cash on hand, borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility and expected free cash flow to be generated through the duration of the share repurchase program.

Note 11—Income Taxes
The Company is a corporation and is subject to taxation in the United States, Canada, Australia and various state, local and provincial jurisdictions.
The effective global income tax rate applicable to the Company for the six months ended June 30, 2026 was 21.9%, compared to 26.0% for the period ended June 30, 2025. The Company’s effective tax rate is greater than the statutory federal income tax rate of 21.0% due to state income taxes in the states the Company operates, nondeductible executive compensation, as well as global intangible low taxed foreign income (“GILTI”) inclusions from the Company’s foreign operations, partially offset by U.S. federal income tax credits. The Company recognized income tax expense of $9.2 million and $18.5 million during the three and six months ended June 30, 2026, respectively. The Company recognized income tax expense of $24.1 million and $31.9 million during the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, respectively.
As of June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, the Company recognized a net deferred tax liability in the amount of $170.2 million and $195.6 million, respectively. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the estimated future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities, and are measured using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled.
On October 8, 2021, the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development (“OECD”) released a statement on the OECD/G20 Inclusive Framework on Base Erosion and Profit Shifting, which agreed to a two-pillar solution to address tax challenges of the digital economy. On December 20, 2021, the OECD released Pillar Two model rules defining a 15% global minimum tax rate for large multinational corporations (the “Pillar Two Framework”). On June 20, 2024 and December 23, 2024, Canada and Australia, respectively, enacted the Pillar Two global minimum tax regime, which is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2026. The Company is continuing to evaluate the Pillar Two Framework and its potential impact on future periods, including any legislation enacted in the jurisdictions in which the Company operates.
On July 4, 2025, Public Law No. 119-21, commonly referred to as the One Big Beautiful Bill Act (the “Act”), was enacted by the U.S. government. While the enactment of the Act does not have an impact on the historical financial data, our future tax liabilities may be impacted. Among other changes, the Act: (i) allows for 100% expensing of the costs of certain

qualified property acquired after January 19, 2025; (ii) allows election to immediately deduct R&D costs incurred; and (iii) modifies the provision related to the limitations on deduction of interest expense.
We expect to realize net benefits from U.S. tax reform, primarily driven by the accelerated depreciation of qualified assets for tax purposes. However, we continue to evaluate the impacts of the Act as we further understand its implications, as well as the related, and yet to be issued, regulations and interpretations which could impact this outlook.
The Company may distribute cash from foreign subsidiaries to its U.S. parent as business needs arise. The Company has not provided for deferred income taxes on the undistributed earnings from certain foreign subsidiaries’ earnings as such earnings are considered to be indefinitely reinvested. If such earnings were to be distributed, any income and/or withholding tax would not be significant.
Tax Receivable Agreements
In connection with the Company’s IPO, on January 17, 2018, the Company entered into two Tax Receivable Agreements (the “TRAs”) with R/C Energy IV Direct Partnership, L.P. and the then existing owners that continued to own units in Liberty Oilfield Services New HoldCo LLC (“Liberty LLC Units”) (each such person and any permitted transferee, a “TRA Holder” and together, the “TRA Holders”). The TRAs generally provide for the payment by the Company of 85% of the net cash savings, if any, in U.S. federal, state, and local income tax and franchise tax (computed using simplifying assumptions to address the impact of state and local taxes) that the Company actually realizes (or is deemed to realize in certain circumstances) in periods after the IPO as a result, as applicable to each TRA Holder, of (i) certain increases in tax basis that occur as a result of the Company’s acquisition (or deemed acquisition for U.S. federal income tax purposes) of all or a portion of such TRA Holder’s Liberty LLC Units in connection with the IPO or pursuant to the exercise of redemption or call rights, (ii) any net operating losses available to the Company as a result of the Corporate Reorganization, and (iii) imputed interest deemed to be paid by the Company as a result of, and additional tax basis arising from, any payments the Company makes under the TRAs.
As of June 30, 2026, the Companys liability under the TRAs was $66.9 million, of which all was recorded as a component of long-term liabilities in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets. The Company made TRA payments of $7.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2026.
As of December 31, 2025, the Companys liability under the TRAs was $74.8 million, of which $7.9 million was recorded as a current liability, and $66.9 million was recorded as a component of long-term liabilities. The Company made TRA payments of $40.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025.

Certain supply agreements contain a clause whereby in the event that the Company fails to purchase minimum volumes, as defined in the agreement, during a specific time period, a shortfall fee may apply. In circumstances where the Company does not make the minimum purchase required under the contract, the Company and its suppliers have a history of amending such minimum purchase contractual terms and in rare cases does the Company incur shortfall fees. If the Company were unable to make any of the minimum purchases and the Company and its suppliers cannot come to an agreement to avoid such fees, the Company could incur shortfall fees in the amounts of $24.4 million for the remainder of 2026. Based on forecasted levels of activity, the Company does not currently expect to incur significant shortfall fees.
Litigation
From time to time, the Company is subject to legal and administrative proceedings, settlements, investigations, claims and actions. The Company’s assessment of the likely outcome of litigation matters is based on its judgment of a number of factors including experience with similar matters, past history, precedents, relevant financial and other evidence and facts specific to the matter. Notwithstanding the uncertainty as to the final outcome, based upon the information currently available, management does not believe any matters, individually or in aggregate, will have a material adverse effect on the Companys financial position or results of operations.

Item 2. Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
The following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes. The following discussion contains “forward-looking statements” that reflect our future plans, estimates, beliefs, and expected performance. Our actual results may differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements as a result of a variety of risks and uncertainties, including those described in “Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements,” the Annual Report under the heading “Item 1A. Risk Factors,” and in “Part II – Other Information, Item 1A. Risk Factors” included herein. We assume no obligation to update any of these forward-looking statements.
Overview
The Company, together with its subsidiaries, is a leading integrated energy services and technology company, and one of the largest providers of innovative completions services and related technologies to onshore oil, natural gas, and enhanced geothermal exploration and production (“E&P”) companies. We offer customers completions services, which include hydraulic fracturing together with complementary services including wireline services, proppant delivery solutions, field gas processing and treating, compressed natural gas (“CNG”) delivery, data analytics, related goods (including our sand mine operations), and technologies to facilitate lower emission completions, thereby helping our customers reduce their emissions profile. We have grown from one active hydraulic fracturing fleet in December 2011 to approximately 40 active fleets as of June 30, 2026. We provide our services primarily in the major oil and gas shale basins in North America and in the Northern Territory of Australia.
We also own and operate LPI, providing advanced distributed power and energy storage solutions, serving the commercial and industrial, data center, energy and mining industries. LPI was formed with the initial focus on supporting Liberty’s transition towards our next generation digiFleets℠ and dual fuel fleets, by providing consistent and reliable power generation solutions and natural gas fueling services, which are critical to maintaining highly efficient well site operations. In January 2025, we announced LPI’s expansion into the distributed power business. On March 3, 2025, we completed the acquisition of IMG Energy Solutions (“the IMG Acquisition”), a leading developer of distributed power systems, for cash consideration of approximately $19.6 million, subject to normal closing adjustments and net of cash received. The IMG Acquisition augmented our portfolio with advanced engineering, design, and development capabilities for the development of power systems, enhanced software control systems, power marketing and utility interconnection experience, and operations and maintenance experience. During 2025, LPI was primarily focused on the planning and development of our power service platform to pursue projects supporting the power demand created by new data center development and other commercial and industrial applications. LPI is actively marketing its integrated power and fuel solutions offering, developing engineered solutions, and, as described in further detail below under "Liquidity and Capital Resources, ordering equipment and long-lead time items for these expected projects. LPI also expanded its natural gas fueling services to support larger scale distributed power installations.
We believe technical innovation and strong relationships with our customer and supplier bases distinguish us from our competitors and are the foundations of our business. We expect that E&P companies will continue to focus on technological innovation as completion complexity and fracture intensity of horizontal wells increases, particularly as customers are increasingly focused on reducing emissions from their completions operations. We remain proactive in developing innovative solutions to industry challenges, including developing: (i) our databases of U.S. unconventional wells to which we apply our proprietary multi-variable statistical analysis technologies to provide differential insight into fracture design optimization; (ii) our Liberty Quiet Fleet® design which significantly reduces noise levels compared to conventional hydraulic fracturing fleets; (iii) hydraulic fracturing fluid systems tailored to the specific reservoir properties in the basins in which we operate; (iv) our dual fuel dynamic gas blending (“DGB”) fleets that allow our engines to run diesel or a combination of diesel and natural gas, to optimize fuel use, reduce emissions and lower costs; (v) our digiFleets℠, comprising of digiFrac℠ and digiPrime℠ pumps and other complementary equipment, including power generation units (together “digiTechnologies℠”), our innovative, purpose-built electric and hybrid frac pumps that have approximately 25% lower CO2e emission profile than the Tier IV DGB; (vi) our wet sand handling technology and piped sand slurry solution which eliminate the need to dry sand, enabling the deployment of mobile mines nearer to wellsites; (vii) the launch of LPI to support the transition to our digiFleets as well as the transition to lower costs and emissions in the oilfield; and (viii) a suite of internally developed software solutions incorporating advanced analytics to support operations, maintenance and logistics management. In addition, our integrated supply chain includes proppant, chemicals, equipment, natural gas fueling services, logistics and integrated software which we believe promotes wellsite efficiency and leads to more pumping hours and higher productivity during completions services jobs to better service our customers.
LPI’s technology platform for distributed power generation includes (a) the ForteSM solution, which uses a modular, standardized construction approach for generation sites to reduce the risk of project execution, (b) the TempoSM power quality management system to manage high-amplitude, cyclical load variations associated with artificial intelligence workloads and (c)

In order to achieve our technological objectives, we carefully manage our liquidity and debt position to promote operational flexibility and invest in the business throughout the full commodity cycle in the regions we operate.
Recent Trends and Outlook
The current Middle East conflict with Iran has resulted in damage to regional energy infrastructure and continued uncertainty as to the availability of key energy export corridors. This disruption has increased focus on energy security and supply diversification and reinforced the strategic importance of North American oil and natural gas resources. This focus has the potential to grow international demand for North American petroleum products and LNG in the next several years.
North American frac activity improved modestly during the quarter following a gradual increase in producer activity. Despite these short-term improvements, larger U.S. and Canadian producers remain cautious regarding activity growth due to continued commodity price volatility and broader macroeconomic uncertainty.
Related to power markets, demand is being driven by continued AI data center development and broader industrial power requirements. As power projects increase in scale and complexity, customers are expected to seek infrastructure providers capable of delivering integrated solutions across power supply, site readiness, energy management, and long-term operations.
During the second quarter of 2026, the posted WTI price traded at an average of $95.65 per barrel (“Bbl”), as compared to the second quarter 2025 average of $64.57 per Bbl, and the first quarter of 2026 average of $72.74 per Bbl. In addition, during the second quarter of 2026, the Henry Hub price traded at an average of $2.95 per one million British thermal units (“MMBtu”), as compared to the second quarter of 2025 average of $3.19 per MMBtu, and the first quarter of 2026 average of $4.71 per MMBtu. Subsequent to June 30, 2026, the Henry Hub traded at an average of $2.99 per MMBtu and the WTI price traded at an average of $76.07 per Bbl through July 20, 2026. The average domestic onshore rig count for the United States and Canada was 688 rigs reported in the second quarter of 2026, up from the average in the second quarter 2025 of 686, and down from the first quarter of 2025 of 741, according to a report from Baker Hughes.

Business Developments
Senior Convertible Notes Activity
In February 2026, we issued $770 million aggregate principal amount of 0% convertible senior notes due March 2031 (the “2031 Notes”), and in March 2026, we issued $525 million aggregate principal amount of 0% convertible senior notes due March 2032 (the “2032 Notes”). Net proceeds from the offerings of the 2031 Notes and the 2032 Notes were $746 million and $511.3 million, respectively, after deducting the initial purchasers’ discounts and commissions and offering expenses paid by us. Additionally, we entered into privately negotiated capped call transactions with respect to each of the 2031 Notes and the 2032 Notes with certain of the initial purchasers or their respective affiliates and certain other financial institutions at a cost of approximately $109.3 million and $77.2 million, respectively. For more information on the 2031 Notes and the 2032 Notes, see Note 7—Debt to the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report.

Revenue
Our revenue increased $146.1 million, or 14%, to $1.2 billion for the three months ended June 30, 2026 compared to $1.0 billion for the three months ended June 30, 2025. The increase in revenue was predominantly driven by elevated activity levels and corresponding improvement in utilization.
Cost of Services
Cost of services (exclusive of depreciation, depletion, and amortization) increased $168.1 million, or 21%, to $980.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2026 compared to $812.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025. The increase in expense was primarily related to increases in parts and material volumes and personnel costs commensurate with the increase in activity levels.
General and Administrative
General and administrative expenses increased $8.8 million, or 15%, to $67.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2026 compared to $58.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025, primarily due to increased variable compensation costs and increased corporate costs to support higher activity levels and the expansion of our power business.
Transaction and Other Costs
Transaction and other costs increased to $7.7 million during the three months ended June 30, 2026, compared to $0.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025. The increase is due to tariffs and duties assessed during the quarter on certain pump components imported from other countries. We have adjusted our supply chain strategy to reduce our tariff exposure on such components in future periods.
Depreciation, Depletion, and Amortization
Depreciation, depletion, and amortization expense decreased $15.2 million, or 12%, to $114.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2026 compared to $129.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025. The decrease during the three months ended June 30, 2026 was primarily due to equipment reaching the end of its depreciable life, partially offset by an increase in finance leases.

The decrease in income tax expense was primarily attributable to the decrease in net income before income taxes as well as a decrease in the effective tax rate.
Comparison of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
We view EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA as important indicators of performance. We define EBITDA as net income before interest, income taxes, and depreciation, depletion, and amortization. We define Adjusted EBITDA as EBITDA adjusted to eliminate the effects of items such as non-cash stock-based compensation, new fleet or new basin start-up costs, fleet lay-down costs, gain or loss on the disposal of assets, net, bad debt reserves, transaction and other costs, the gain or loss on remeasurement of liability under our tax receivable agreements, the gain or loss on investments, net, and other expenses that management does not consider in assessing ongoing performance.
Our Board of Directors (the “Board”), management, investors, and lenders use EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA to assess our financial performance because it allows them to compare our operating performance on a consistent basis across periods by removing the effects of our capital structure (such as varying levels of interest expense), asset base (such as depreciation, depletion, and amortization) and other items that impact the comparability of financial results from period to period. We present EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA because we believe they provide useful information regarding the factors and trends affecting our business in addition to measures calculated under GAAP.

Note Regarding Non-GAAP Financial Measures
EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are not financial measures presented in accordance with GAAP. We believe that the presentation of these non-GAAP financial measures will provide useful information to investors in assessing our financial performance and results of operations. Net income is the GAAP financial measure most directly comparable to EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA. Our non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered as alternatives to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure. Each of these non-GAAP financial measures has important limitations as an analytical tool due to exclusion of some but not all items that affect the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures. You should not consider EBITDA or Adjusted EBITDA in isolation or as substitutes for an analysis of our results as reported under GAAP. Because EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA may be defined differently by other companies in our industry, our definitions of these non-GAAP financial measures may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies, thereby diminishing their utility.
The following tables present a reconciliation of EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA to our net income, which is the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure for the periods presented:

Liquidity and Capital Resources
Overview
Our primary sources of liquidity consist of proceeds from the offering of the 2031 Notes and the 2032 Notes, cash flows from operations, borrowings under our credit facilities, and finance leases for certain equipment. While we believe that these sources are adequate for our current liquidity needs, we monitor the availability and cost of capital resources such as equity, debt, and lease financings that could be leveraged for current or future financial obligations including those related to organic growth, acquisitions, capital expenditures, working capital, and other liquidity requirements.

Table of Contents
During the six months ended June 30, 2026, we issued the 2031 Notes and the 2032 Notes for net proceeds of $746.0 million and $511.3 million, respectively, after deducting the initial purchasers’ discount and commissions and offering expenses paid by us. We also entered into privately negotiated capped call transactions with respect to each of the 2031 Notes and the 2032 Notes with certain of the initial purchasers or their respective affiliates and certain other financial institutions at a cost of approximately $109.3 million and $77.2 million, respectively. Refer to Note 7— Debt to the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report for additional information related to the 2031 Notes and the 2032 Notes.
We plan to raise funds, and may incur additional debt, through project specific financing including non-recourse debt, and co-investments or equity to support the expansion of our distributed power business. Our primary uses of capital have been capital expenditures to support growth for our completions business, both organic and through acquisitions, and funding ongoing operations, including purchasing long-lead time equipment for our distributed power solutions business, and maintenance and fleet upgrades, as well as the repurchases of, and dividends on, shares of our Class A Common Stock (the “Class A Common Stock”).
Cash and cash equivalents increased by $527.8 million to $555.4 million as of June 30, 2026 compared to $27.6 million as of December 31, 2025, while working capital excluding cash and current liabilities under debt and lease arrangements increased $85.4 million.
As of June 30, 2026, the Company was party to the Credit Agreement, which provides for a revolving line of credit up to $750.0 million. The Credit Agreement is subject to certain borrowing base limitations based on a percentage of eligible accounts receivable, inventory and certain power generating assets available to finance working capital needs. In the first quarter of 2026 the Company used a portion of the net proceeds from the offering of the 2031 Notes to repay all indebtedness outstanding under the Revolving Credit Facility, excluding letters of credit. As of June 30, 2026, the borrowing base was calculated to be $467.7 million, and the Company had no amounts outstanding, excluding letters of credit in the amount of $19.4 million, with $448.3 million of remaining availability.
The Credit Agreement contains financial covenants that we are required to maintain, in addition to covenants that restrict our ability to take certain actions. As of June 30, 2026, we were in compliance with all debt covenants.
See Note 7—Debt to the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report for further details.
Share Repurchase Program
Under our share repurchase program, the Company is authorized to repurchase up to $750.0 million of outstanding Class A Common Stock through and including July 31, 2026. Shares may be repurchased from time to time for cash in open market transactions, through block trades, in privately negotiated transactions, through derivative transactions, or by other means in accordance with applicable federal securities laws. The timing and the amount of repurchases will be determined by the Company at its discretion based on an evaluation of market conditions, capital allocation alternatives and other factors. The share repurchase program does not require us to purchase any dollar amount or number of shares of our Class A Common Stock and may be modified, suspended, extended, or terminated at any time without prior notice. The Company expects to fund any repurchases by using cash on hand, borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility, and expected free cash flow to be generated through the duration of the share repurchase program. The Company did not repurchase or retire any shares of Class A Common Stock under the share repurchase program during the three or six months ended June 30, 2026.

Analysis of Cash Flow Changes Between the Six Months Ended June 30, 2026 and 2025
Operating Activities. Net cash provided by operating activities was $141.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2026, compared to $362.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025. The $221.3 million decrease in cash from operating activities is attributable to a $119.6 million decrease in cash from changes in working capital for the six months ended June 30, 2026, compared to a $61.7 million increase in cash from changes in working capital for the six months ended June 30, 2025. Additionally cash from operating activities decreased due to a $229.8 million increase in cash operating expenses, interest expense, net, and income tax expense, offset by a $189.8 million increase in revenues.
Investing Activities. Net cash used in investing activities was $364.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2026, compared to $189.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025. Cash used in investing activities was higher during the six months ended June 30, 2026, compared to the six months ended June 30, 2025 primarily due to a $109.4 million increase in equipment purchases, capitalized maintenance, and capital deposits, a decrease in the proceeds on sale of equity securities of $80.8 million, and an increase of $9.7 million for shares purchased in Tamboran. These increases in cash used in investing activities were partially offset by a decrease from the acquisition of IMG Energy Solutions of $15.2 million in the six months ended June 30, 2025, and an increase of $9.4 million in cash proceeds from the sale of assets. Refer to Note 2—Significant Accounting Policies to the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report for additional information related to the IMG Acquisition.
Financing Activities. Net cash provided by financing activities was $752.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2026, compared to net cash used in financing activities of $174.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025. The $926.1 million increase in cash provided by financing activities was primarily due to an increase in net borrowing activities of $887.7 million which includes the initial cash received from the 2031 Notes and the 2032 Notes, purchase of capped calls, net borrowings under the Caterpillar Agreement, net borrowings and repayments on the Revolving Credit Facility, and payment of debt issuance costs. Additionally, there was a $24.9 million decrease in share repurchases, a $32.9 million decrease in cash paid under the TRA liability, offset by a $1.8 million increase in tax withholdings for RSUs, a $14.2 million increase in cash paid for finance leases and a $3.4 million increase in dividends paid.
Cash Requirements
Our material uses of cash consist primarily of obligations under long-term debt including the 2032 Notes, 2031 Notes and the Revolving Credit Facility, TRAs, finance and operating leases for property and equipment, cash used to pay for repurchases of, and dividends on, shares of our Class A Common Stock, and purchase obligations as part of normal operations and our expansion into the distributed power business. During the six months ended June 30, 2026, the Company issued $770.0 million aggregate principal amount and $525.0 million aggregate principal amount of the 2031 Notes and the 2032 Notes, respectively. See Note 7 —Debt to the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report.
Certain amounts included in our contractual obligations as of June 30, 2026 are based on our estimates and assumptions about these obligations, including pricing, volumes, and duration. We have no material off balance sheet arrangements as of June 30, 2026, except for purchase commitments for generation assets to support our distributed power business and under sand supply agreements of which $35.2 million is payable within 2026, and $0.0 million is payable thereafter.
During the year, we entered into various equipment supply contracts for the purchase of power generation equipment, including engines, balance of plant equipment, and related services for our distributed power solutions business for an aggregate price of approximately $1.3 billion. As of June 30, 2026, the total remaining commitments under these contracts was $1.1 billion. These remaining payments are to be made in installments in connection with the scheduling, delivery, performance testing, and takeover of the equipment. In addition, on July 22, 2026, we entered into an additional equipment supply contract with CAT, which has a purchase price of approximately $801 million. We expect to receive the equipment currently on order under these supply contracts beginning in 2027 through 2030. The timing and amount of these obligations may change as a result of supplier manufacturing and delivery schedules, site readiness, transportation, customs-clearance requirements, governmental approvals, performance testing, force majeure events, change orders and contractual modifications, or other

circumstances. We could incur significant additional capital expenditures if activity levels or opportunities increase during the course of the year. We intend to fund these capital expenditures using the primary sources of liquidity described above.
As of June 30, 2026, we had outstanding finance lease obligations of $264.2 million and operating lease obligations of $57.0 million.
There have been no other material changes to cash requirements since the year ended December 31, 2025.
Income Taxes
The Company is a corporation and is subject to U.S. federal, state, and local income tax. The Company is also subject to Canada and Australia federal and provincial income tax on its foreign operations.
The effective global income tax rate applicable to the Company for the six months ended June 30, 2026 was 21.9% compared to 26.0%, for the period ended June 30, 2025. The Company’s effective tax rate is greater than the statutory federal income tax rate of 21.0% due to state income taxes in the states the Company operates, nondeductible executive compensation, as well as GILTI inclusions from the Company’s foreign operations, partially offset by U.S. federal income tax credits. The Company recognized an income tax expense of $9.2 million and $18.5 million during the three and six months ended June 30, 2026, respectively. The Company recognized an income tax expense of $24.1 million and $31.9 million during the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, respectively.
Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the estimated future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities, and are measured using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. As of June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, the Company’s net deferred tax liabilities were $170.2 million and $195.6 million, respectively.
Refer to Note 11— Income Taxes to the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report for additional information related to income tax expense.
Tax Receivable Agreements
Refer to Note 11— Income Taxes to the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report for additional information related to tax receivable agreements.
Critical Accounting Estimates
The Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with GAAP, which require us to make estimates and assumptions (see Note 2—Significant Accounting Policies to the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report and Note 2—Significant Accounting Policies and Part II, Item 7, “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations,” included in the Annual Report). A critical accounting estimate is one that requires our most difficult, subjective or complex estimates and assessments and is fundamental to our results of operations. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions we believe to be reasonable according to the current facts and circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources.
There have been no material changes in our evaluation of our critical accounting policies and estimates since our Annual Report.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosure about Market Risk
Our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements are expressed in U.S. dollars. However, the Company conducts operations in Canada and Australia exposing us to market risks resulting from fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates. The Canadian dollar and the Australian dollar are the functional currencies of the Company’s foreign subsidiaries as it is the primary currency within the economic environment in which the subsidiaries operate.
Changes in the exchange rates of the above foreign currencies can affect our revenues, earnings, and the carrying value of our assets and liabilities in our unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets, either positively or negatively. Adjustments resulting from the translation of the subsidiary’s financial statements are reported in other comprehensive income. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2026, the Company recorded a foreign currency translation loss of $3.7 million and $5.5 million, respectively, to comprehensive income. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, the Company recorded a foreign currency translation gain of $6.0 million and $6.1 million, respectively, to comprehensive income.
Other exposures to market risk have not changed materially since December 31, 2025. For quantitative and qualitative disclosures about market risk, in addition to foreign currency translation, see Part II, Item 7(a), “Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk,” in the Annual Report.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
In accordance with Rules 13a-15 and 15d-15 of the Exchange Act, we carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Exchange Act) as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on that evaluation, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of June 30, 2026 to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the SEC. Our disclosure controls and procedures include controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) that occurred during the quarter ended June 30, 2026 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Item 1. Legal Proceedings
Information relating to legal proceedings is described in Note 14—Commitments & Contingencies to our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report, and the information discussed therein is incorporated by reference into this Part II, Item 1.
Item 1A. Risk Factors
In addition to the risk factors and other information set forth in this Quarterly Report, you should carefully consider the risk factors and other cautionary statements described under the heading “Item 1A.

This includes moratoria on new data center development, enhanced permitting and environmental review processes, and operational requirements or restrictions relating to energy efficiency, electricity and water consumption, traffic congestion, noise mitigation, or other community-impact measures. The implementation of moratoria and new requirements and restrictions could increase costs, delay, or reduce planned data center infrastructure investments, limit the size and location of data centers, or otherwise constrain the deployment or expansion of data center infrastructure by our customers. Any sustained reduction or delay in data center development activity or operations could materially and adversely affect demand for our distributed power solutions, our results of operations, and our financial condition.

5OFFICIAL APPROVALS AND PERMITS

5.1The EQUIPMENT will comply with all relevant ISO standards stipulated in the ANNEXES and valid on the date of signature of the CONTRACT. Should (i) the requirements of any such ISO standards, or any other mandatory applicable law, change after the date of signing the CONTRACT, or (ii) any changes be required by the PURCHASER, and such changes in (i) or (ii) necessitate a modification to the EQUIPMENT, scope of supply or obligations of the CONTRACTOR, then any and all such changes will be treated as a VARIATION under Clauses 8.2 or 8.9 as applicable. The CONTRACTOR will further be entitled to a reasonable and appropriate extension of time under Clause 9.2, taking into account the nature and extent of such change.
5.1.1The respective responsibilities of a PARTY for compliance of the EQUIPMENT with the prevailing GRID CODE will be as expressly stated in ANNEX A1 and/or ANNEX A2. In the event that any particular responsibility has not been expressly included in ANNEX A1 or ANNEX A2, then it will be construed to be the sole responsibility of the PURCHASER. If, after the signing of the CONTRACT, there are any changes or additions to the GRID CODE that impact the CONTRACTOR’S design and/or supply of EQUIPMENT and/or obligations at SITE, then such changes and/or additions will be treated as a VARIATION under Clause 8.9. The CONTRACTOR will further be entitled to a reasonable and appropriate extension of time under Clause 9.2, taking into account the nature and extent of such change.

5.2The PURCHASER will be construed to be the GENERATOR with respect to the GRID CODE and will be responsible for all obligations of the GENERATOR thereunder except in so far as the PARTIES have expressly agreed otherwise in ANNEX A1 or ANNEX A2. The PURCHASER is responsible for obtaining, at its own cost, all necessary permits, licenses, approvals, necessary waivers or exemptions, and/or for creating any data model of the full system, which are required or necessary under the GRID CODE. Further, the PURCHASER will be responsible (i) for any necessary liaison or alignment with the authorities operating any grid, and (ii) for providing to the CONTRACTOR, prior to the signing of the CONTRACT, all necessary data, input and information which the CONTRACTOR requires in order to verify that the EQUIPMENT will meet the prevailing and relevant requirements of the GRID CODE. Should the PURCHASER delay or fail to perform any of its obligations under this Clause 5.2 and where such delay or failure gives rise to an obligation on the CONTRACTOR to amend the technical specification of the EQUIPMENT and/or modify the EQUIPMENT, then any such changes and/or modifications will be treated as a VARIATION and the PURCHASER and CONTRACTOR will use good faith efforts to agree upon a VARIATION ORDER in accordance with Clause 8.9. The CONTRACTOR will further be entitled to a reasonable and appropriate extension of time under Clause 9.2, taking into account the nature and extent of such change. In the event that the CONTRACTOR and PURCHASER are unable to reach a mutual agreement on the VARIATON ORDER , then the dispute resolution process in Clause 23 will apply.

5.3In addition to the PURCHASER’S obligations under Clause 5.2 above, the PURCHASER is responsible, at its own cost, for obtaining all other permits, licenses, permissions, or approvals which are required (i) in connection with the performance of the CONTRACT, and (ii) by the laws of the country or state where the EQUIPMENT is to be delivered, installed, commissioned and put into operation.

Any operation of the GENERATOR SETS, or any of them, in a country or state (as may be applicable) where the applicable exhaust emission requirements are different to those specified in ANNEX A3 will be at the PURCHASER’S sole responsibility and risk.

6REPRESENTATIVES

6.1For the implementation phase of the project the CONTRACTOR and PURCHASER will each name suitably experienced Project Managers for the project coordination. The respective Project Managers of the PARTIES will be entitled to delegate the performance of any task of such Project Manager to an authorized nominee where such Project Manager, in their discretion, determines that it is beneficial to the performance of the obligations of their respective PARTY to do so. The Project Manager of the PURCHASER will be authorized to bind the PURCHASER by providing any approvals as may be required under the CONTRACT and/or by agreeing and signing, inter alia, VARIATION ORDERS, AMENDMENTS and/or modifications to the PROJECT TIME SCHEDULE.

6.2The Project Managers of the respective PARTIES will convene a meeting at an agreed location, or over an agreed virtual platform, at an agreed date and time to occur once a month during the implementation phase of the CONTRACT. A record of each meeting will be prepared by the CONTRACTOR and issued to the Project Manager of the PURCHASER. The record of the meeting will be agreed between the PARTIES within seven (7) days of the meeting.

7INFORMATION, DRAWINGS AND DATA

7.1The PURCHASER will provide in accordance with ANNEX C2, or otherwise in a timely manner, the information it is required to supply to the CONTRACTOR. Any failure of the PURCHASER to do so will entitle the CONTRACTOR to a reasonable and appropriate extension of time under Clause 9.2. Furthermore, the CONTRACTOR will be entitled to recover from the PURCHASER any reasonable direct costs incurred by the CONTRACTOR arising out of or in connection with the PURCHASER’S failure to comply with this Clause 7.1.

7.1.1Where the PURCHASER requires the GENERATOR SETS and/or the SHIELDX MODULES to be installed on existing civil foundations, the PURCHASER will be solely responsible to ensure that the existing civil foundations are suitable for the installation of the GENERATOR SETS and/or the SHIELDX MODULES including without limitation suitability to bear the loads imposed by the GENERATOR SETS and/or the SHIELDX MODULES. The PURCHASER will be solely liable for any consequences arising out of or in connection with the unsuitability of such existing civil foundations. The PURCHASER will indemnify the CONTRACTOR from and against any and all liability arising out of or in connection with the unsuitability of the existing civil foundations.

7.2The CONTRACTOR will provide the applicable documentation related to the EQUIPMENT and SERVICES in accordance with ANNEX C2.

7.3Where any drawing, document and/or technical specification of the EQUIPMENT to be submitted by the CONTRACTOR to the PURCHASER pursuant to Clause 7.2 is indicated in ANNEX C2 as expressly requiring the approval of the PURCHASER, then the PURCHASER will provide any comments it might have in writing to the CONTRACTOR no later than [***] after receipt. If no comments are received within [***] after receipt, then such drawing, document and/or technical specification will be deemed to be approved by the PURCHASER.

7.4Subject to the PURCHASER having provided reasonable advance written notice to the CONTRACTOR, the PURCHASER is entitled, at its own expense, to visit the CONTRACTOR’S factory at Hordvikneset, Bergen, Norway to inspect the progress of manufacture. Any such inspection will be conducted during normal business hours at the CONTRACTOR’S factory and will be restricted to physical observation of that part of the EQUIPMENT being manufactured at the CONTRACTOR’S factory at the time of the inspection.

7.5The CONTRACTOR will notify the PURCHASER in writing at least [***] before (i) each FACTORY ACCEPTANCE TEST referred to in Clause 4.4.1 and 4.4.2 (Notice of FAT) and (ii) each planned DISPATCH date of the EQUIPMENT (Notice of DISPATCH).

7.6The PURCHASER is responsible for the installation of the EQUIPMENT at SITE. Such installation will be carried out in accordance with the CONTRACTOR’S installation instructions provided in the Installation Manual. Upon completion of the installation of the EQUIPMENT (or part thereof), the PURCHASER will complete and sign the Pre-Commissioning Completion Form for such part in the form attached at ANNEX B1. In a timely manner, but in no case less than [***] before the date set for the commencement of COMMISSIONING of the EQUIPMENT (or relevant part thereof) stated in the PROJECT TIME SCHEDULE, the PURCHASER will send to the CONTRACTOR (i) a signed copy of ANNEX B1, (ii) a current SITE installation status report and/or program, (iii) SITE specific health and safety requirements including confirmation that suitable SITE office accommodation and welfare facilities are provided and will be maintained, and (iv) the layout drawing referred to in Clause 10.1, in order to permit the CONTRACTOR to prepare for attendance at SITE for the COMMISSIONING. In the event that the PURCHASER does not fulfill its obligations as provided for in this Clause 7.6, the CONTRACTOR will be entitled to suspend the performance of its obligations under the CONTRACT in accordance with Clause 20.2.

7.6.1Where the CONTRACTOR has agreed to inspect the installation jointly with, or separately to, the PURCHASER it does so for the sole purpose of (i) checking, to the extent that it is reasonably possible to do so, that to the best of its commissioning engineer(s) knowledge the installation has been carried out by the PURCHASER in accordance with the CONTRACTOR’S installation instructions provided in the Installation Manual and (ii) enabling the commencement of COMMISSIONING. Inspection by the CONTRACTOR’S commissioning engineer(s) is a condition precedent to the validity of the CONTRACTOR’S warranty under Clause 13. This inspection however does not relieve the PURCHASER from being solely responsible for the quality of the installation and/or defects in the EQUIPMENT caused or contributed to by discrepancies, errors or omissions in the installation of the EQUIPMENT. Any future claim that is caused or contributed to by incorrect installation of the EQUIPMENT will be the responsibility of the PURCHASER (and therefore rejected by the CONTRACTOR) regardless of any inspection having been conducted by the CONTRACTOR and/or regardless of what is represented in ANNEX B1.

7.7The CONTRACTOR will be responsible for any discrepancies, errors and omissions in its drawings and information, supplied in writing to the PURCHASER, whether or not the PURCHASER has approved them in accordance with Clause 7.3. Subject always to the limitations and exclusions of the CONTRACTOR’S liability in Clause 18, the CONTRACTOR will reimburse any additional and reasonable direct cost incurred by the PURCHASER which is caused directly by the PURCHASER’S reasonable reliance on such discrepancies, errors and omissions. Provided that, irrespective of the foregoing, where information has been provided by or on behalf of the PURCHASER to the CONTRACTOR, and has been relied upon by the CONTRACTOR, the terms of Clause 7.8 will apply.
7.8The PURCHASER will be responsible for the drawings and information supplied in writing by or on behalf of the PURCHASER or anyone in the PURCHASER’S service. The
Page 14 of 48

Contract Reference: [***]
Contractor Reference number: [***]

PURCHASER will reimburse any additional and reasonable direct cost incurred by the CONTRACTOR which results directly from the CONTRACTOR’S reasonable reliance on any discrepancies, errors and omissions in such drawings and information supplied including without limitation which results in amendments to the EQUIPMENT and/or SERVICES. If the CONTRACTOR is delayed in the performance of its contractual obligations due to any discrepancies, errors and/or omissions in such drawings and information supplied by or on behalf of the PURCHASER then the CONTRACTOR will be entitled to a reasonable and appropriate extension of time and the PROJECT TIME SCHEDULE will be modified accordingly.

7.9If the PURCHASER delays the CONTRACTOR by failing to provide the required information, documents and/or any necessary approvals required in this Clause 7, then the CONTRACTOR will be entitled to a reasonable and appropriate extension of time under Clause 9.2. Furthermore, the CONTRACTOR will be entitled to recover from the PURCHASER any reasonable direct costs incurred by the CONTRACTOR arising out of or in connection with the PURCHASER’S failure to comply with this Clause 7.

7.10Where the CONTRACTOR has agreed as part of its scope of supply to provide limited supervisory services to the PURCHASER during the placement of the GENSETS onto the Foundation Plates by the PURCHASER, it will do so in accordance with ANNEX A1. The purpose of the supervisory services undertaken by the CONTRACTOR will be solely to check, to the extent that it is reasonably possible to do so, that the CONTRACTOR’S installation instructions given in the Installation Manual for the placement of GENSETS onto the Foundation Plates are being followed by the PURCHASER. Such supervision by the CONTRACTOR does not relieve the PURCHASER from being solely responsible for the quality of the installation and/or defects in the EQUIPMENT caused or contributed to by discrepancies, errors or omissions in the installation of the EQUIPMENT. Any future claim that is caused or contributed to by incorrect installation of the EQUIPMENT will be the responsibility of the PURCHASER (and therefore rejected by the CONTRACTOR) regardless of any supervisory services having been conducted by the CONTRACTOR.

7.11The PARTIES to the CONTRACT will use SI-units in all documentation and correspondence.

8VARIATIONS

8.1The CONTRACTOR may, without the approval of the PURCHASER or any VARIATION ORDER, implement minor VARIATIONS in the form of a change to the technical specification of the EQUIPMENT and/or technical modifications of the EQUIPMENT, provided that these changes and/or modifications do not result in additional costs to the PURCHASER, or a delay in DELIVERY, or jeopardize safety or layout on SITE or affect the PERFORMANCE GUARANTEES given by the CONTRACTOR. In such case, no AMENDMENT to the CONTRACT is required.

8.2Should a major VARIATION be required by the CONTRACTOR, then the PURCHASER’S approval will be obtained. The PURCHASER’S approval will not be unreasonably withheld and, if such approval is given, the PURCHASER will without delay issue a VARIATION ORDER. Should a major VARIATION be required by the PURCHASER, then the CONTRACTOR’S approval will be obtained. Subject to Clause 8.7, the CONTRACTOR’S approval will not be unreasonably withheld. If such approval is given by the CONTRACTOR, the PURCHASER will without delay issue a VARIATION ORDER. For the purposes of this Clause 8.2, a major VARIATION is a change to the technical specification of the EQUIPMENT and/or technical modifications of the EQUIPMENT which would result in additional costs to the PURCHASER, or a delay in DELIVERY, or alter layout on SITE or affect the PERFORMANCE GUARANTEES given by the CONTRACTOR.

8.3Within [***] of receipt of a VARIATION ORDER the CONTRACTOR, or an authorized nominee on behalf of the CONTRACTOR, will submit to the PURCHASER a VARIATION PROPOSAL.

8.4Within a further [***] of the VARIATION PROPOSAL, the PARTIES will use good faith efforts to agree in writing upon an AMENDMENT incorporating all agreed changes. In the event that the PARTIES fail to reach an agreement on the terms of the AMENDMENT within the time frame set forth in this Clause 8.4, then subject to Clause 8.5 below, the CONTRACTOR will be entitled to (i) review, amend and resubmit its VARIATION PROPOSAL to take account of any changes, including (without limitation) costs, which have occurred as a direct result of the delay, and (ii) an appropriate and reasonable extension of time until an agreement has been reached or the PARTIES (acting reasonably) agree that no VARIATION is required. The PROJECT TIME SCHEDULE will be modified accordingly.

8.5Until an AMENDMENT is agreed pursuant to Clause 8.4 and is legally effective, the CONTRACTOR will not be obligated to implement the VARIATION and may, at its sole discretion, proceed with its contractual obligations as if no request for VARIATION has been made. The existence of a VARIATION ORDER will not imply any changes to the contractual obligations of the CONTRACTOR until such time as an AMENDMENT is legally effective. Provided that where (i) the VARIATION PROPOSAL necessitates a major change in the manufacturing process and/or design of the EQUIPMENT and (ii) the PARTIES have not agreed an AMENDMENT in accordance with Clause 8.4 within [***] of receipt of the VARIATION PROPOSAL, the CONTRACTOR will be entitled to suspend performance of its obligations in accordance with Clause 20.2 until an agreement has been reached or the PARTIES (acting reasonably) agree that no VARIATION is required.

8.6Should either PARTY require a VARIATION, other than as set forth in Clauses 8.1 and 8.2, which may affect the CONTRACT PRICE, the PROJECT TIME SCHEDULE, any of the PERFORMANCE GUARANTEES, layout on SITE, or any material right or obligation of either PARTY, then the approval of the other PARTY will be obtained. Subject to Clause 8.7, the other PARTY’S approval will not be unreasonably withheld. If such approval is obtained, the PURCHASER will without delay issue a VARIATION ORDER and the procedure in Clauses 8.3 to 8.5 inclusive will apply.

8.7The CONTRACTOR will be entitled to withhold its approval for a VARIATION requested by the PURCHASER where the proposed changes (i) are not technically and/or practically feasible, or (ii) are not acceptable to the CONTRACTOR because the proposed changes have a disproportionate impact on the scope of the CONTRACTOR’S obligations, the PROJECT TIME SCHEDULE and/or the CONTRACTOR’S resources.

8.8A VARIATION ORDER will set out in writing the explicit changes instructed by the PURCHASER in sufficient detail to permit the CONTRACTOR to prepare its VARIATION PROPOSAL.

8.9When it is necessary to make changes to the EQUIPMENT in accordance with Clause 5.1, Clause 5.1.1 and/or Clause 5.2, the PURCHASER is obligated to raise, without undue delay, a VARIATION ORDER and the procedure in Clauses 8.3 to 8.5 inclusive will apply.

8.10Should there be a change in the scope of work of the CONTRACTOR or any obligations of the CONTRACTOR or a SUBCONTRACTOR after the date of signing of the CONTRACT necessitated by (i) a change in a mandatory law, regulation, directive or applicable standard affecting the CONTRACT and/or (ii) reasons beyond the reasonable control of the CONTRACTOR or a SUBCONTRACTOR or which are caused by the PURCHASER, a
Page 16 of 48

Contract Reference: [***]
Contractor Reference number: [***]

third party or an event of FORCE MAJEURE, then the PARTIES agree that the effect of any such change will be treated as a VARIATION and the PURCHASER will be obligated to raise, without undue delay, a VARIATION ORDER and the procedure in Clauses 8.3 to 8.5 inclusive will apply. The CONTRACTOR will be entitled to a reasonable and appropriate extension of time and additional costs, taking into account the nature of such change. The PARTIES will use good faith efforts to agree to an AMENDMENT and the PROJECT TIME SCHEDULE will be modified accordingly. In the event that the CONTRACTOR and PURCHASER are unable to reach a mutual agreement on the AMENDMENT, then the dispute resolution process in Clause 23 will apply.

9PROJECT TIME SCHEDULE

9.1The CONTRACT will be performed in accordance with the dates and/or periods in the PROJECT TIME SCHEDULE. The project managers of the respective PARTIES will ensure that the PROJECT TIME SCHEDULE is updated and modified as required in order to reflect the latest status of the PROJECT performance.

9.2If, by reason of any VARIATION ORDERS pursuant to Clauses 4.2, 4.4, 4.4.2, 5.1, 5.1.1, 5.2, and 8, or by reason of any act or omission on the part of the PURCHASER, any event of FORCE MAJEURE or any other event beyond the reasonable control of the CONTRACTOR, the CONTRACTOR is, or will be, delayed in the performance of the CONTRACTOR’S obligations under the CONTRACT, then provided that the CONTRACTOR gives to the PURCHASER, as soon as reasonably practicable, notice of its claim for an extension of time with supporting details, the PURCHASER will on receipt and within a [***] period of such notice grant the CONTRACTOR a reasonable and appropriate extension of time, taking account of all relevant circumstances. The PROJECT TIME SCHEDULE will be modified accordingly.

9.3The failure by the PURCHASER to (i) make any payment due to the CONTRACTOR, and/or (ii) produce or extend any parent company guarantee, as required under the CONTRACT will entitle the CONTRACTOR, at its discretion, to an equivalent extension of time and/or the right to suspend its performance of the CONTRACT under Clause 20.2.

9.4Where the performance of the CONTRACT, or any aspect thereof, overruns the agreed PROJECT TIME SCHEDULE for reasons attributable to the PURCHASER’S delay in the performance of any of its obligations including without limitation (i) a delay in casting or curing the civil foundations, or (ii) a delay or failure to achieve general readiness of the SITE to receive the EQUIPMENT, or (iii) delay in installation works, the CONTRACTOR will, in addition to any other remedy the CONTRACTOR may have, be entitled to be paid by the PURCHASER reasonable additional costs for CONTRACT prolongation, including without limitation additional project management and administration costs. The CONTRACTOR will submit its claim for such prolongation costs in writing to the PURCHASER as soon as reasonably practicable.
10INSTALLATION, COMMISSIONING, PERFORMANCE TESTS AND TAKE OVER

10.1The PURCHASER will install the EQUIPMENT in accordance with the CONTRACTOR’S Installation Manual. The PURCHASER will within the time limit established in Clause 7.6 confirm, in addition to the requirements listed in Clause 7.6 (iii), the location and specification of welfare facilities, laydown areas for deliveries, and office facilities for the CONTRACTOR on a site layout drawing.

10.2The PURCHASER will notify the CONTRACTOR of any specific regulations and requirements applicable to the CONTRACTOR’S personnel or representatives for access
Page 17 of 48

Contract Reference: [***]

to and working on SITE. Such notification to be made in a timely manner, but in no case less than [***] before the relevant date(s) set for the commencement of COMMISSIONING in the PROJECT TIME SCHEDULE. The PURCHASER will provide any reasonable assistance to the CONTRACTOR for necessary travel arrangements for its personnel or representatives to ensure that such personnel or representatives are available to be on SITE by the date(s) set for the commencement of COMMISSIONING in the PROJECT TIME SCHEDULE.

10.3In case of nonconformity by the PURCHASER with applicable Health, Safety and Environmental (HS&E) requirements, or risk of injury to its personnel or representatives due to SITE conditions, the CONTRACTOR will have the right to suspend its performance of the CONTRACT under Clause 20.2 until the nonconformity or risk has been rectified. The PURCHASER will pay for any costs incurred by CONTRACTOR as a result of the suspension, including those costs set forth in Clause 20.3.

10.4The CONTRACTOR will conduct pre-commissioning checks to confirm, in so far as it is reasonably able to do so, that the PURCHASER has completed the pre-commissioning activities in accordance with ANNEX B1 and will then perform the COMMISSIONING of the EQUIPMENT. Such pre-commissioning checks do not, however, relieve the PURCHASER from being solely responsible for the quality of the installation as set forth in Clauses 7.6.1 or 7.10 as applicable.

10.5COMMISSIONING, Start Up, PERFORMANCE TESTS and TAKE OVER of the supplied EQUIPMENT will be executed in accordance with the procedures prescribed in ANNEX B2 and/or ANNEX B3 (as the case may be).

10.5.1The PURCHASER is responsible for arranging and conducting, at its own cost, the emissions testing of the plant, such testing to be carried out during the PERFORMANCE TESTS so as not to delay TAKE OVER.

10.6TAKE OVER of the EQUIPMENT or any part of the EQUIPMENT, as applicable, will take place when the following conditions in Clauses 10.6.1, 10.6.2 and 10.6.3 have been fulfilled:

10.6.1The PERFORMANCE TESTS have been carried out; and

10.6.2The SNAGGING LIST has been agreed, where necessary; and

10.6.3The PURCHASER’S and CONTRACTOR’S representative at SITE have completed and signed the TAKE OVER Certificate in the form in ANNEX B4. For the avoidance of doubt, should the representative of the PURCHASER fail to sign the TAKE OVER certificate, without reasonable cause, within [***] of the PERFORMANCE TESTS having been completed, then TAKE OVER will be deemed to have taken place.

10.7Until TAKE OVER, only the CONTRACTOR or its personnel or representative(s) will be authorized to operate the EQUIPMENT or any part of the EQUIPMENT.

10.8Prior to TAKE OVER, the PURCHASER may only operate the EQUIPMENT, or any part of the EQUIPMENT, with the CONTRACTOR’S prior written approval.

10.9Irrespective of anything to the contrary stated in this Clause 10, any COMMERCIAL OPERATION of the EQUIPMENT, or any part of the EQUIPMENT, without the prior written approval of the CONTRACTOR will be deemed to be TAKE OVER of the relevant EQUIPMENT. In the case of deemed TAKE OVER for COMMERCIAL OPERATION, the
Page 18 of 48

Contract Reference: [***]
Contractor Reference number: [***]

CONTRACTOR will not (i) be required to conduct any PERFORMANCE TEST and (ii) provide any warranty, for the relevant EQUIPMENT (or part thereof).

10.20In addition to the CONTRACTOR’S rights under Clause 9.4, in the case of delays to the COMMISSIONING and/or PERFORMANCE TEST periods (set out in the PROJECT TIME SCHEDULE) which are attributable to the PURCHASER, then the CONTRACTOR will, in addition to any other remedy it may have, be entitled to additional costs for its commissioning engineer(s). Such additional costs for its commissioning engineer(s) will be charged at the CONTRACTOR’S, (or its SUBCONTRACTORS), Commissioning Field Service Rates attached in ANNEX C6, as may be amended or substituted by the CONTRACTOR from time to time.

10.21Irrespective of anything to the contrary stated in this Clause 10, if the PERFORMANCE TESTS of the EQUIPMENT, (or part thereof), are delayed for reasons attributable to the PURCHASER, (excluding FORCE MAJEURE), by more than [***] after the CONTRACTOR has provided notice of readiness to perform the PERFORMANCE TESTS for the EQUIPMENT, (or part thereof), as required in Clause 11.1, then TAKE OVER of the relevant EQUIPMENT, (or part thereof), will be deemed to have taken place.

without limitation manufacturing lead times, delivery periods and redesign or modification periods (if necessary).

11.2.2In the event that, despite the [***] opportunities to conduct corrective measures and repeat the PERFORMANCE TESTS referred in Clause 11.2.1 above, the EQUIPMENT continues to fail to achieve the applicable PERFORMANCE GUARANTEE, then the PURCHASER will be entitled to apply the applicable liquidated damages for non-performance on the basis specified in Clause 17.

Furthermore, the PURCHASER will, where necessary, be responsible at its own cost for ensuring that the EQUIPMENT is accessible and/or disconnecting the EQUIPMENT from other plant or a system, to permit the CONTRACTOR to implement the repair or replacement. The warranty for any part or component which has been repaired or replaced under this Clause 13.5 will be [***] from the installation of such repaired or replaced part or component or the end of the original WARRANTY PERIOD for the relevant GENSET, whichever is later. For the avoidance of doubt, the extension of the warranty will only apply for the specific part or component of the EQUIPMENT which has been repaired or replaced and will in no case extend the original warranty for the relevant GENSET with respect to any other part or component of that GENSET or its associated BALANCE OF PLANT.

13.6The warranty in this Clause 13 will not apply to (a) any EQUIPMENT where deemed TAKE OVER has taken place under Clause 10.9 or Clause 10.21 and/or (b) any failure, overload or defect which is caused by: (i) normal wear and tear of the EQUIPMENT, (ii) operation of the EQUIPMENT (or part thereof) outside the GUARANTEE CONDITIONS stated in ANNEX A3, (iii) operation or maintenance of the EQUIPMENT other than in accordance with ANNEX A2 and/or the CONTRACTOR'S Operation and Maintenance Manual, (iv) improper use or storage of the EQUIPMENT by the PURCHASER, (v) use of gases, fuels, oils, water conditioning chemicals, corrosion inhibitors and other consumables other than as set forth in ANNEX A2, (vi) repairs or works carried out on the EQUIPMENT without the prior written consent of the CONTRACTOR, (vii) use of any parts or components by PURCHASER which are not OEM parts or components, (viii) parts, components or equipment which were supplied by the PURCHASER or any third party on behalf of the PURCHASER as set forth in ANNEXES A1 and/or A2, (ix) extreme or unusual SITE and/or environmental conditions, (x) failure by the PURCHASER to follow the Installation Manual or errors or omissions in the installation of the EQUIPMENT, (xi) alteration, modification or re-location of the EQUIPMENT by the PURCHASER after TAKE OVER, or (xii) delay in notification by the PURCHASER to the CONTRACTOR of such failure, overload or defect under this Clause 13 which results in additional damage to the EQUIPMENT and/or additional cost to the CONTRACTOR.

13.7The CONTRACTOR will remedy defects for which the CONTRACTOR is responsible under this Clause 13 as soon as reasonably practicable after the root cause of such defect has been identified. The PARTIES will agree in writing a reasonable period within which the CONTRACTOR will implement the works necessary to remedy such defect. Provided always that such reasonable period will take into account manufacturing lead times, delivery periods, and redesign or modification periods (if necessary) and all other relevant circumstances.

13.8If the CONTRACTOR fails, for reasons attributable to the CONTRACTOR, to remedy a defect for which the CONTRACTOR is responsible under this Clause 13 within the time agreed pursuant to Clause 13.7, the PURCHASER is entitled (having provided [***] prior written notice to the CONTRACTOR) to execute such work as is necessary to remedy the defect at cost to the CONTRACTOR. Provided always that the PURCHASER will not be entitled to claim from the CONTRACTOR any cost for remedying such defect which exceeds the CONTRACTOR’S own estimated cost to execute such works necessary to remedy the defect plus [***].

PURCHASER prior to expiration of the [***] notice period referred to in this Clause 13.8. The CONTRACTOR will not be liable for any warranty work carried out by, or on behalf of, the PURCHASER by a third party nor will the CONTRACTOR provide any further warranty with respect to defects or failures arising in connection with such works.

13.9It is agreed by the PARTIES that the rights and obligations of the respective PARTIES set forth in this Clause 13 will, to the fullest extent permitted by law, constitute the sole rights and remedies available to the PURCHASER and the sole and exclusive obligations and liability of the CONTRACTOR for failures or defects in the EQUIPMENT during the WARRANTY PERIOD.

15.4Unless agreed otherwise by the PARTIES in writing, any and all payments made by the PURCHASER will be in the currency of the CONTRACT PRICE. No payment will be deemed to have been made by the PURCHASER until the full amount due is unconditionally credited to the nominated bank account of the CONTRACTOR.

15.5The PURCHASER will provide a parent company guarantee from Liberty Energy Inc. which will be issued in the form attached in ANNEX D1, or if no form is attached then in a form and substance which is acceptable to the CONTRACTOR. The parent company guarantee will be issued to the CONTRACTOR for the final [***] of CONTRACT PRICE and will become valid no later than [***] before the date set for the final scheduled DISPATCH of EQUIPMENT. The parent company guarantee must remain valid for at least [***] after the planned TAKE OVER date set forth in ANNEX C1 or [***] after the date the CONTRACTOR declares the last GENERATOR SETS ready for DISPATCH, whichever is later. If the PURCHASER fails to issue the parent company guarantee by the time required in this Clause 15.5, the CONTRACTOR will be entitled to postpone DELIVERY, without liability, and will be entitled to an extension of time which is equal to the period of delay by the PURCHASER in issuing the parent company guarantee ANNEX C1 will be modified accordingly.

15.6Reserved.

15.7Reserved.

15.8The PARTIES agree that the parent company guarantee will be in the format specified in ANNEX D1.

15.9If the PURCHASER fails to pay any payment by its due date the CONTRACTOR will, in addition to its rights under Clause 9.3, be entitled to charge the PURCHASER interest from the day on which such payment became due until the time that such payment is received from the PURCHASER, at a rate of [***]. This is in addition to the CONTRACTOR’S other rights under this CONTRACT in respect of late or non-payment by the PURCHASER.

15.10The PURCHASER acknowledges and agrees that in case of (i) any delays to the performance of the CONTRACT (including without limitation suspension or FORCE MAJEURE) which are not solely caused by the fault of the CONTRACTOR or (ii) any extension of the PROJECT TIME SCHEDULE in accordance with the terms of the CONTRACT which occur after the issue of the parent company guarantee to the CONTRACTOR but before receipt by the CONTRACTOR of the final milestone payment referred to in Clause 15.5 above, then the PURCHASER will at its own cost ensure, without undue delay, that the term of the parent company guarantee is extended by a period equal to the applicable delay or extension of the PROJECT TIME SCHEDULE. Where a delay to the performance of the CONTRACT is solely caused by the fault of the CONTRACTOR, the CONTRACTOR will be entitled to require the PURCHASER to obtain an extension to the validity of the parent company guarantee by a period equal to the applicable delay, however in such case the cost of implementing such extension will be borne by the CONTRACTOR. Evidence of an extension of the validity of the parent company guarantee obtained in accordance with this Clause 15.10 will be provided to the CONTRACTOR. Failure by the PURCHASER to fulfill its obligations under this Clause 15.10 will be deemed to constitute a MATERIAL BREACH of CONTRACT and, without prejudice to the remedy available to the CONTRACTOR under Clause 21.3, the CONTRACTOR will be entitled to suspend performance of its obligations under Clause 20.2.

16.3The agreed CONTRACT PRICE is exclusive of all taxes, duties and indirect taxes (including without limitation VAT or its local equivalent) payable by law in the country of the PURCHASER or in the country in which the EQUIPMENT is installed and/or the SERVICES are actually rendered, as the case may be. Any such taxes, duties and indirect taxes will be paid by the PURCHASER in addition to the CONTRACT PRICE. The PURCHASER will either (i) reimburse such taxes, duties and/or indirect taxes to the CONTRACTOR as may be levied directly against the CONTRACTOR, or (ii) declare and pay any such taxes, duties and/or indirect taxes directly to the relevant local authority, as may be required by the law in the country of the PURCHASER or in the country in which the EQUIPMENT is installed and/or the SERVICES are actually rendered, as the case may be.

16.4The PARTIES agree to pay and bear all other costs, taxes, duties and indirect taxes whatsoever which are levied or payable in connection with the exportation and/or transportation of the EQUIPMENT, (whether or not in BATCHES), in accordance with the agreed DELIVERY terms in ANNEX C4. Where the PURCHASER is responsible for these costs, taxes, duties and/or indirect taxes, the PURCHASER will provide evidence to the CONTRACTOR of such payment without undue delay following the DISPATCH of the EQUIPMENT.

16.5If a withholding tax deduction is required by any law to be made in connection with any payment to be made by the PURCHASER to the CONTRACTOR under this CONTRACT, then the payment due from the PURCHASER to the CONTRACTOR will be increased to an amount which (after making such deduction) will ensure that the CONTRACTOR receives an amount equivalent to the payment which would have been due if no withholding tax deduction had been required. The PURCHASER will declare and pay the withholding tax to the relevant tax authorities within the time required. The PURCHASER will provide to the CONTRACTOR in a timely manner a copy of the official certificate issued by the local tax authorities evidencing that the withholding tax has been paid.

16.6Any delay in the transport of the EQUIPMENT and/or any other obligation of the CONTRACTOR due to a failure of the PURCHASER to fulfill any of its obligations under this Clause 16 will entitle the CONTRACTOR to an extension of time and additional costs and will be treated as a VARIATION. Provided that where the PURCHASER fails to fulfil its obligations under this Clause 16 within a period of [***] from receipt of the notice of readiness to DISPATCH then the CONTRACTOR will be entitled to suspend the performance of its obligations in accordance with Clause 20.2.

17LIQUIDATED DAMAGES LIABILITY

17.1The PARTIES acknowledge and irrevocably agree that actual damages resulting from delay or failure to attain a PERFORMANCE GUARANTEE are difficult or impossible to ascertain with certainty, and that the liquidated damages provided herein are a fair and
Page 25 of 48

Contract Reference: [***]
Contractor Reference number: [***]

reasonable estimate of the harm caused by such delay or failure to attain a PERFORMANCE GUARANTEE and are not a penalty.

17.2The PARTIES agree that, to the fullest extent permitted by law, in no case will the total aggregate liability of the CONTRACTOR for any and all liquidated damages (whether for delay and/or non-performance of the EQUIPMENT) agreed in the CONTRACT exceed a maximum of [***] of the CONTRACT PRICE.

17.3The PARTIES have agreed to the liquidated damages liability and/or preconditions to the application of such liquidated damages which are set forth in this Clause 17.

17.3.1Where a DELIVERY MILESTONE is specified in ANNEX C1 for a specific DELIVERY, then where the CONTRACTOR fails to achieve such DELIVERY MILESTONE the PURCHASER will be entitled, (subject to the conditions in this Clause 17), to claim liquidated damages for delay for each failure to achieve a DELIVERY MILESTONE in the amount of [***] of the value of the EQUIPMENT delivered late for each [***] of delay up to and in no case exceeding a maximum of [***] of the value of the EQUIPMENT delivered late. Provided always that the PARTIES agree that where more than one DELIVERY MILESTONE has been specified in ANNEX C1 then, to the fullest extent permitted by law, in no case will the total aggregate liability of the CONTRACTOR for any and all liquidated damages for delay set forth in this Clause 17.3.1 exceed a maximum of [***] of the CONTRACT PRICE.

17.3.2The CONTRACTOR will for each DELIVERY MILESTONE be allowed a grace period of [***] prior to the application of liquidated damages under Clause 17.3.1, therefore the liquidated damages for such delay may be applied against the CONTRACTOR from the [***] day after the relevant DELIVERY MILESTONE.

17.3.3Irrespective of the above, the PURCHASER agrees that unless a failure to achieve a DELIVERY MILESTONE is caused solely by the fault of the CONTRACTOR, it cannot impose liquidated damages for delay in DELIVERY to the proportionate extent that such failure to achieve a DELIVERY MILESTONE is not caused by the CONTRACTOR. Further, liquidated damages will not be payable by the CONTRACTOR when failure to achieve a DELIVERY MILESTONE is attributable to FORCE MAJEURE, the PURCHASER or a third party (with the exception of SUBCONTRACTORS).

17.3.4Liquidated damages for failure to achieve the PERFORMANCE GUARANTEES given by the CONTRACTOR for the EQUIPMENT are specifically set forth in ANNEX A3. Provided always that the PARTIES agree that, to the fullest extent permitted by law, in no case will the total aggregate liability of the CONTRACTOR for any and all liquidated damages for failure to achieve the PERFORMANCE GUARANTEES set forth in ANNEX A3 exceed a maximum of [***] of the CONTRACT PRICE.

17.4Except as set forth in Clauses 21.2, 21.2.2, 21.2.4 and 21.9, liquidated damages for delay in DELIVERY and, subject to Clause 11, failure to achieve PERFORMANCE GUARANTEES will constitute the CONTRACTOR’S exclusive obligation and the PURCHASER’S sole and exclusive right and remedy arising out of or in connection with any and all delay by the CONTRACTOR in the performance of the CONTRACT and/or non-performance of the EQUIPMENT including failure to meet the PERFORMANCE GUARANTEES.

Page 26 of 48

Contract Reference: [***]

damages, and (ii) the PARTIES, acting reasonably, having agreed the PURCHASER’S undisputed right to receive such liquidated damages under the CONTRACT. For the avoidance of doubt, in determining the PURCHASER’S undisputed right to receive the liquidated damages claimed, the PARTIES will be permitted a reasonable time (not exceeding [***] for the proper examination of all relevant circumstances and applicable documentation. If the PARTIES are unable to agree on the PURCHASER’S right to claim liquidated damages within the stated period, then the dispute resolution process in Clause 23 will apply.

17.6The PURCHASER’S right to liquidated damages will be forfeited if the written notice required in Clause 17.5 has not been received by the CONTRACTOR within [***] after TAKE OVER.

18LIABILITY

24.10.1That such CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION was or has become available for use in the public domain otherwise than through breach by the receiving PARTY, (its PERMITTED RECIPIENTS or third parties to which the receiving PARTY or its PERMITTED RECIPIENTS has disclosed such CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION), of any confidentiality or non-disclosure obligations or use restrictions in this CONTRACT or any other written agreement between the PARTIES: or

24.10.2That such CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION was already known to it (without restrictions on confidentiality, disclosure or use) prior to it receiving such CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION under or in connection with this CONTRACT; or

24.10.3That such CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION was received without restriction on further disclosure or use from a third party who lawfully acquired it and who is itself under no obligation restricting its confidentiality, disclosure or use; or

24.10.4From its records and/or extrinsic evidence that such CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION was generated independently of that received under or in connection with this CONTRACT, and that a right of prior use existed; or

24.10.5That the disclosure of such CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION was compelled by operation of mandatory law and that the receiving PARTY took all reasonable steps (to the extent permitted by law) (i) to provide without delay prior written notice to the disclosing PARTY (together with a copy of any relevant access request or court order) to permit the disclosing PARTY time and opportunity to protect its interests, and (ii) after taking legal advice, to resist or narrow the disclosure to only that which it was legally compelled to disclose, and (iii) to ensure that the CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION which it was compelled to disclose was afforded confidential treatment.

24.11Notwithstanding the expiry or termination of this CONTRACT for any reason, the confidentiality and/or non-disclosure obligations of the PARTIES with respect to CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION will survive (i) to the fullest extent permitted by law in
Page 37 of 48

Contract Reference: [***]
Contractor Reference number: [***]

perpetuity (or otherwise for the maximum period permitted by law taking into account the nature of the CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION), or (ii) until such CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION enters the public domain through no fault of the receiving PARTY, (its PERMITTED RECIPIENTS, or third parties to which disclosure has been made in accordance with Clause 24.6).

24.12The PARTIES agree that all data held within the engine control cabinet, or any other data collection and/or storage system forming part of the EQUIPMENT (for example the LCC or IPC as applicable), including operating data will belong to, and remain at all times vested in, Bergen Engines AS or its AFFILIATE or SUBCONTRACTOR (as the case may be). The CONTRACTOR hereby grants the PURCHASER a non-exclusive, non-transferable, royalty-free license to use such data solely for the purpose of operating and maintaining the EQUIPMENT. Such license will in no case permit the PURCHASER, to use the license for the purpose of re-producing EQUIPMENT (or any component thereof), modifying or altering the EQUIPMENT, producing or permitting third parties to produce spare parts or components or other use beyond operation and maintenance of the EQUIPMENT. The CONTRACTOR retains the right to revoke or terminate, at its discretion, any such license with immediate effect should the PURCHASER breach any restrictions on use related to the data used under the license.

24.13All CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION of the CONTRACTOR and/or its AFFILIATES or SUBCONTRACTORS as the case may be, including but not limited to drawings and technical data, remains the property of, and vested in, the CONTRACTOR and/or its AFFILIATES or SUBCONTRACTORS as the case may be. The CONTRACTOR hereby grants the PURCHASER a royalty free, non-exclusive, non-transferable license to use the CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION relating to the EQUIPMENT for the limited purpose of operating and maintaining the EQUIPMENT for generating power at the SITE only and no other purpose whatsoever. Should the PURCHASER use the CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION relating to the EQUIPMENT for the purpose of re-producing the EQUIPMENT (or any component thereof), modifying or altering the EQUIPMENT, producing or permitting third parties to produce spare parts or components or any other use beyond operating and maintaining the EQUIPMENT for generating power at the SITE or otherwise breach any of the restrictions on use, confidentiality and/or any non-disclosure obligations under this Clause 24, then the CONTRACTOR will be entitled, at its discretion, to revoke or terminate this license with immediate effect.

24.14If any proven claim has been asserted against the PURCHASER that any part of the EQUIPMENT constitutes a violation or infringement of any patent, copyright, registered design or other proprietary right held by a third party, where such violation or infringement is caused by the CONTRACTOR, then the PURCHASER will notify the CONTRACTOR without undue delay. The CONTRACTOR may at its sole discretion (i) acquire the necessary licenses to permit the PURCHASER to operate and maintain the EQUIPMENT, or (ii) replace or modify the EQUIPMENT, or infringing part thereof, to render the EQUIPMENT non-infringing, or (iii) terminate the CONTRACT. In the event that the CONTRACTOR elects to proceed with (i) or (ii) above, this will constitute the sole right and remedy of the PURCHASER arising out of or in connection with a proven allegation or proven claim of violation or infringement of the intellectual property rights of such third party. Where the CONTRACTOR elects to terminate the CONTRACT pursuant to (iii) above, this will be deemed to be a MATERIAL BREACH and the PURCHASER may, as its sole right and remedy, pursue the remedies provided to it in Clause 21.2.

24.15The PURCHASER agrees to indemnify the CONTRACTOR against any damages, losses, costs, expenses, (including legal fees), responsibilities and claims arising out of or in connection with a violation or infringement of any patent, copyright, registered design or other proprietary right held by a third party which arises strictly due to modifications made to the EQUIPMENT by PURCHASER ; provided, however, that PURCHASER’S maximum liability under this Clause 24.15 shall be limited to and in no case exceed [***] of the
Page 38 of 48

CONTRACT PRICE. Subject to the foregoing and Clause 18.2, the CONTRACTOR agrees to indemnify the PURCHASER against any damages, losses, costs, expenses, (including legal fees), responsibilities and claims arising out of or in connection with a violation or infringement of any patent, copyright, registered design or other proprietary right held by a third party which otherwise arises in connection with the EQUIPMENT.

24.16Each PARTY agrees not to disclose or provide to the other PARTY any PROHIBITED INFORMATION whether specifically related to the subject matter of this CONTRACT or otherwise. In the event that, notwithstanding the foregoing, a PARTY has received any PROHIBITED INFORMATION then such PARTY will without delay (i) notify the other PARTY in writing that they have received, and the nature of, the PROHIBITED INFORMATION, (ii) delete or procure the deletion of such PROHIBITED INFORMATION and any copy thereof, and (iii) ensure that such PROHIBITED INFORMATION is not disclosed or further disseminated and is treated in strictest confidence.

24.17Reserved.

24.18The PARTIES and each of them acknowledge and agree that, due to the nature, sensitivity and commercial value of the CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION disclosed by, or on behalf of, the disclosing PARTY to the receiving PARTY, (or its PERMITTED RECIPIENTS or third parties to which disclosure has been made in accordance with Clause 24.6 above), under this CONTRACT, damages alone would not be a sufficient remedy to compensate the disclosing PARTY for harm suffered as a result of a breach by the receiving PARTY, (or its PERMITTED RECIPIENTS or third parties to which disclosure has been made in accordance with Clause 24.6 above), of their obligations under this Clause 24. The PARTIES agree that without prejudice to any other right or remedy permitted under this CONTRACT, the non-defaulting PARTY will be entitled to seek injunctive relief.

25ASSIGNMENT, NOVATION AND SUB-CONTRACTING

25.1Neither PARTY will novate the CONTRACT or assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights, benefits, entitlements or obligations under the CONTRACT to a third party without the prior written consent of the other PARTY. In the event of the prior written consent of the other PARTY having been obtained, as required in this Clause 25.1, the consenting PARTY agrees to provide reasonable cooperation in documenting any such novation, assignment, or transfer, provided that such documentation must be on terms and in a form which is acceptable to the consenting PARTY.

25.2Neither PARTY will subcontract the whole of its respective scope of supply under the CONTRACT. Each PARTY will be responsible for all equipment, services and any ancillary works supplied by its subcontractors.

26ENTIRE AGREEMENT

26.1This CONTRACT will constitute the entire agreement and understanding between the PARTIES in relation to its subject matter and will supersede and replace (i) any Letter of Intent (LOI) relating to this CONTRACT which was previously entered into by the PARTIES and/or (ii) all prior oral and written agreements, communications, statements and/or understandings in so far as they apply to the subject matter of this CONTRACT. Any statements, assurances, promises, warranties, undertakings, guarantees or representations intended to be provided by the CONTRACTOR to the PURCHASER are those expressly included in this CONTRACT and, to the fullest extent permitted by law, no additional statements, assurances, promises, warranties, undertakings, guarantees or
Page 39 of 48

Contract Reference: [***]

representations (whether express, collateral or otherwise) by the CONTRACTOR to the PURCHASER will be implied into this CONTRACT and are expressly and intentionally excluded. The PURCHASER acknowledges and agrees that it does not rely upon, has not relied upon, and will have no remedy in respect of, (i) any statement, assurance, promise, undertaking or representation, whether negligently or innocently made, of any person (whether a PARTY to the CONTRACT or not) or (ii) any guarantee, warranty or previous understanding, other than as expressly set out in this CONTRACT. No PARTY seeks to exclude or limit its liability for fraudulent misrepresentation upon which another PARTY can be shown to have relied.

28RELATIONSHIP OF THE PARTIES

28.2A PARTY will not contract in the name of, or in any way bind, the other PARTY without the other PARTY’S express prior written consent.

28.3Each PARTY will be responsible for its own employees. None of the employees, servants or agents of a PARTY will be considered, or in any way represent themselves, as being employees, servants or agents of the other PARTY or be entitled to any of the benefits supplied by that other PARTY to its own employees.

29SURVIVAL

29.1Any provision of this CONTRACT which due to its nature and/or the intention of the PARTIES should survive expiration or termination of this CONTRACT will survive such expiration or termination of this CONTRACT. In particular, the PARTIES agree that Clauses 7.1.1, 13.9, 17, 18, 21, 23, 24, 26.1, 30.6, 30.7, 31.1, 33.1, 36.1, 36.2, 37.8, 37.9, 38 and this Clause 29.1 will survive expiration or termination of this CONTRACT.



30COMPLIANCE WITH LAWS

30.1Each PARTY confirms that it will comply with mandatory applicable laws of the European Union, Norway, England and Wales, United States of America, the country of the PURCHASER or the SITE, (as may be applicable to the performance of the CONTRACT), where such mandatory applicable laws (i) relate to ABC LAWS, anti-money laundering, antitrust and competition, export controls, data protection, anti-discrimination and human rights, tax and fraud, and (ii) are current and subsequently in place during the validity of the CONTRACT.

30.2To the extent that personal data is being transferred and processed in connection with this CONTRACT each PARTY undertakes that it will have in place appropriate technical and organizational measures to (i) protect the personal data against unlawful destruction or loss, alteration, unauthorized disclosure or access, and (ii) provide a level of security appropriate to the risk represented by the processing and the nature of the data to be protected. Each PARTY further undertakes that to the extent applicable it will process such personal data only in relation to the performance of its contractual obligations.

30.3Each PARTY undertakes that it and its AFFILIATED PERSONS in connection with the performance of the PARTY’S respective obligations under the CONTRACT:

30.3.1Have to the best of their knowledge complied, (and will continue to comply), with all mandatory applicable laws referred to in Clause 30.1 and have to the best of their knowledge not taken, (and will not take or fail to take), any action, where such act or omission would subject the other PARTY to liability under such mandatory applicable laws;

30.3.2Will not intentionally offer or promise an INAPPROPRIATE INDUCEMENT whether directly or through intermediaries; and

30.3.3Will make their respective best efforts to completely document and archive the documentation concerning business relationships with GOVERNMENT OFFICIALS.

30.4Each PARTY confirms that where and to the extent required by mandatory applicable law referred to in Clause 30.1 it will, and will use its best efforts to procure that its AFFILIATED PERSONS will, include materially similar obligations to those obligations set forth in Clauses 30.1, 30.2, 30.3 and this Clause 30.4 in any contracts, agreements or purchase orders related to this CONTRACT.

30.5Either PARTY will be entitled at its own cost, upon providing reasonable prior written notice of no less than four (4) weeks to the other PARTY, to conduct at the other PARTY’S premises at an agreed time during normal working hours an audit for the purposes of verifying the other PARTY’S compliance with its obligations under this Clause 30. Such audit will be conducted by a mutually agreed independent external law firm or independent accounting firm located in the country of the PARTY whose documents and accounts are to be audited. Such third party auditor will be bound by confidentiality and non-disclosure obligations no less stringent than those contained in Clause 24. The audited PARTY will provide reasonable assistance to the auditors to carry out such audit. Provided that prior to such audit the PARTIES will agree in writing the scope of the audit which will in no case include direct access to (a) servers, networks or other electronic data storage systems and/or (b) documents, data, specifications, information or records of the audited PARTY which (i) constitute CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION, or sensitive market, commercial, financial, or technical information, (ii) are related to other customers or third parties, (iii) are not specifically generated for the CONTRACT, (iv) constitute personal data, and/or (vi) are related to specifications of network protections and details of IT policies. Each PARTY will have the right to conduct an audit in accordance with the terms of this Clause 30.5 at any time during the validity of the CONTRACT but in no case will any such audit be conducted more often than once per [***]. No individual audit under this Clause 30.5 will exceed a period of [***].

30.6Where a PARTY terminates this CONTRACT in accordance with Clause 30.7, then the defaulting PARTY will indemnify the other PARTY against any direct losses, direct damages, and direct and reasonable costs and/or expenses incurred by the non-defaulting
Page 41 of 48

Contract Reference: [***]
Contractor Reference number: [***]

PARTY as a direct result of the proven breach by the defaulting PARTY of its obligations in Clauses 30.1, 30.2, or 30.3 as the case may be. To the fullest extent permitted by law, the indemnity provided in this Clause 30.6 will be subject to the limits and exclusions of liability contained in Clauses 18.1 (more particularly 18.1.3), 18.2, 18.3, 18.4, 18.5, 18.6,18.7, 18.8 and 18.10.3. Provided that the non-defaulting PARTY will be obligated to prove, (and use all reasonable measures to mitigate), any losses, damages, costs and expenses which it intends to claim from the defaulting PARTY under this indemnity. The indemnity in this Clause 30.6 will expire and become null and void [***] after expiration or termination of the CONTRACT. For the avoidance of doubt this indemnity does not apply to losses, damages, costs and expenses incurred by the non-defaulting PARTY in connection with the termination of the CONTRACT for MATERIAL BREACH, which will be recovered by the non-defaulting PARTY as provided for in Clause 21.7. This indemnity will not apply where, and to the extent, that the breach by the defaulting PARTY of its obligations in Clauses 30.1, 30.2, or 30.3 is caused by FORCE MAJEURE.

30.7Either PARTY may in the case of proven breach by the other PARTY of its obligations in Clauses 30.1, 30.2, or 30.3 terminate this CONTRACT with immediate effect for MATERIAL BREACH by written notice to the other PARTY. In such case the non-defaulting PARTY may exercise the remedies set forth in Clause 21.7 which will, to the fullest extent permitted by law, be the sole and exclusive right and remedies available to the non-defaulting PARTY for such proven MATERIAL BREACH, and/or resulting termination of the CONTRACT.

31SEVERABILITY

31.1If any provision, (or part thereof), of this CONTRACT becomes illegal, invalid, or unenforceable, the illegality, invalidity or unenforceability of that provision, (or part thereof), will not invalidate or otherwise affect the remaining provisions. In the case of any such illegality, invalidity or unenforceability the affected provision, (or part thereof), will, to the fullest extent permitted by law, be replaced by a legal, valid or enforceable provision which gives effect, to the fullest extent permitted, to the original intention of the PARTIES.

32WAIVER AND AMENDMENT

32.1Unless expressly provided to the contrary elsewhere in this CONTRACT, any failure or delay by a PARTY to exercise or enforce any right, remedy, discretion or power available to that PARTY under this CONTRACT will not constitute, nor will it be construed as, a waiver by such PARTY of that right, remedy, discretion or power. Any waiver by a PARTY in respect of a particular non-performance, default, or breach of the other PARTY will not constitute, nor will it be construed as, a waiver in respect of any other non-performance, breach or default, nor any subsequent repetition of the same non-performance, breach or default. To be effective, any waiver must be expressly made in writing and signed by an authorized representative of the PARTY making the waiver.
32.2Any amendment, change or modification to the CONTRACT, (including any AMENDMENT), must be in writing and signed by an authorized representative of each PARTY to be binding.

33RIGHTS OF THIRD PARTIES

33.1The PARTIES agree that, to the fullest extent permitted by law, except as otherwise expressly provided in this CONTRACT no person or entity who is not a PARTY to this CONTRACT will have any rights to enforce, or benefit from, any of its terms under any applicable law or third party rights legislation.

caused by any government agency in connection with reviewing and/or granting the export authorizations or approvals will entitle the CONTRACTOR to a reasonable and appropriate extension of time and the PROJECT TIME SCHEDULE will be modified accordingly.

obligation to pay, any milestone payment in ANNEX C3 that would have become due had such storage not been requested or required. The CONTRACTOR will also be entitled to a reasonable and appropriate extension of time under Clause 9.2, and if the storage requirement under (i), (ii) or (iii) above exceeds [***] then the CONTRACTOR will be entitled to suspend its performance of the CONTRACT in accordance with Clause 20.2.

5    OFFICIAL APPROVALS AND PERMITS

5.1    The EQUIPMENT will comply with all relevant ISO standards stipulated in the ANNEXES and valid on the date of signature of the CONTRACT. Should (i) the requirements of any such ISO standards, or any other mandatory applicable law, change after the date of signing the CONTRACT, or (ii) any changes be required by the PURCHASER, and such changes in (i) or (ii) necessitate a modification to the EQUIPMENT, scope of supply or obligations of the CONTRACTOR, then any and all such changes will be treated as a VARIATION under Clauses 8.2 or 8.9 as applicable. The CONTRACTOR will further be entitled to a reasonable and appropriate extension of time under Clause 9.2, taking into account the nature and extent of such change.
5.1.1    The respective responsibilities of a PARTY for compliance of the EQUIPMENT with the prevailing GRID CODE will be as expressly stated in ANNEX A1 and/or ANNEX A2. In the event that any particular responsibility has not been expressly included in ANNEX A1 or ANNEX A2, then it will be construed to be the sole responsibility of the PURCHASER. If, after the signing of the CONTRACT, there are any changes or additions to the GRID CODE that impact the CONTRACTOR’S design and/or supply of EQUIPMENT and/or obligations at SITE, then such changes and/or additions will be treated as a VARIATION under Clause 8.9. The CONTRACTOR will further be entitled to a reasonable and appropriate extension of time under Clause 9.2, taking into account the nature and extent of such change.

5.2    The PURCHASER will be construed to be the GENERATOR with respect to the GRID CODE and will be responsible for all obligations of the GENERATOR thereunder except in so far as the PARTIES have expressly agreed otherwise in ANNEX A1 or ANNEX A2. The PURCHASER is responsible for obtaining, at its own cost, all necessary permits, licenses, approvals, necessary waivers or exemptions, and/or for creating any data model of the full system, which are required or necessary under the GRID CODE. Further, the PURCHASER will be responsible (i) for any necessary liaison or alignment with the authorities operating any grid, and (ii) for providing to the CONTRACTOR, prior to the signing of the CONTRACT, all necessary data, input and information which the CONTRACTOR requires in order to verify that the EQUIPMENT will meet the prevailing and relevant requirements of the GRID CODE. Should the PURCHASER delay or fail to perform any of its obligations under this Clause 5.2 and where such delay or failure gives rise to an obligation on the CONTRACTOR to amend the technical specification of the EQUIPMENT and/or modify the EQUIPMENT, then any such changes and/or modifications will be treated as a VARIATION and the PURCHASER and CONTRACTOR will use good faith efforts to agree upon a VARIATION ORDER in accordance with Clause 8.9. The CONTRACTOR will further be entitled to a reasonable and appropriate extension of time under Clause 9.2, taking into account the nature and extent of such change.

Any operation of the GENERATOR SETS, or any of them, in a country or state (as may be applicable) where the applicable exhaust emission requirements are different to those specified in ANNEX A3 will be at the PURCHASER’S sole responsibility and risk.

6    REPRESENTATIVES

6.1    For the implementation phase of the project the CONTRACTOR and PURCHASER will each name suitably experienced Project Managers for the project coordination. The respective Project Managers of the PARTIES will be entitled to delegate the performance of any task of such Project Manager to an authorized nominee where such Project Manager, in their discretion, determines that it is beneficial to the performance of the obligations of their respective PARTY to do so. The Project Manager of the PURCHASER will be authorized to bind the PURCHASER by providing any approvals as may be required under the CONTRACT and/or by agreeing and signing, inter alia, VARIATION ORDERS, AMENDMENTS and/or modifications to the PROJECT TIME SCHEDULE.

6.2    The Project Managers of the respective PARTIES will convene a meeting at an agreed location, or over an agreed virtual platform, at an agreed date and time to occur once a month during the implementation phase of the CONTRACT. A record of each meeting will be prepared by the CONTRACTOR and issued to the Project Manager of the PURCHASER. The record of the meeting will be agreed between the PARTIES within seven (7) days of the meeting.

7    INFORMATION, DRAWINGS AND DATA

7.1    The PURCHASER will provide in accordance with ANNEX C2, or otherwise in a timely manner, the information it is required to supply to the CONTRACTOR. Any failure of the PURCHASER to do so will entitle the CONTRACTOR to a reasonable and appropriate extension of time under Clause 9.2. Furthermore, the CONTRACTOR will be entitled to recover from the PURCHASER any reasonable direct costs incurred by the CONTRACTOR arising out of or in connection with the PURCHASER’S failure to comply with this Clause 7.1.

7.1.1    Where the PURCHASER requires the GENERATOR SETS and/or the SHIELDX MODULES to be installed on existing civil foundations, the PURCHASER will be solely responsible to ensure that the existing civil foundations are suitable for the installation of the GENERATOR SETS and/or the SHIELDX MODULES including without limitation suitability to bear the loads imposed by the GENERATOR SETS and/or the SHIELDX MODULES. The PURCHASER will be solely liable for any consequences arising out of or in connection with the unsuitability of such existing civil foundations. The PURCHASER will indemnify the CONTRACTOR from and against any and all liability arising out of or in connection with the unsuitability of the existing civil foundations.

7.2    The CONTRACTOR will provide the applicable documentation related to the EQUIPMENT and SERVICES in accordance with ANNEX C2.

7.3    Where any drawing, document and/or technical specification of the EQUIPMENT to be submitted by the CONTRACTOR to the PURCHASER pursuant to Clause 7.2 is indicated in ANNEX C2 as expressly requiring the approval of the PURCHASER, then the PURCHASER will provide any comments it might have in writing to the CONTRACTOR no later than [***] after receipt. If no comments are received within [***] after receipt, then such drawing, document and/or technical specification will be deemed to be approved by the PURCHASER.

7.4    Subject to the PURCHASER having provided reasonable advance written notice to the CONTRACTOR, the PURCHASER is entitled, at its own expense, to visit the CONTRACTOR’S factory at Hordvikneset, Bergen, Norway to inspect the progress of manufacture. Any such inspection will be conducted during normal business hours at the CONTRACTOR’S factory and will be restricted to physical observation of that part of the EQUIPMENT being manufactured at the CONTRACTOR’S factory at the time of the inspection.

7.5    The CONTRACTOR will notify the PURCHASER in writing at least [***] before (i) each FACTORY ACCEPTANCE TEST referred to in Clause 4.4.1 and 4.4.2 (Notice of FAT) and (ii) each planned DISPATCH date of the EQUIPMENT (Notice of DISPATCH).

7.6    The PURCHASER is responsible for the installation of the EQUIPMENT at SITE. Such installation will be carried out in accordance with the CONTRACTOR’S installation instructions provided in the Installation Manual. Upon completion of the installation of the EQUIPMENT (or part thereof), the PURCHASER will complete and sign the Pre-Commissioning Completion Form for such part in the form attached at ANNEX B1. In a timely manner, but in no case less than [***] before the date set for the commencement of COMMISSIONING of the EQUIPMENT (or relevant part thereof) stated in the PROJECT TIME SCHEDULE, the PURCHASER will send to the CONTRACTOR (i) a signed copy of ANNEX B1, (ii) a current SITE installation status report and/or program, (iii) SITE specific health and safety requirements including confirmation that suitable SITE office accommodation and welfare facilities are provided and will be maintained, and (iv) the layout drawing referred to in Clause 10.1, in order to permit the CONTRACTOR to prepare for attendance at SITE for the COMMISSIONING. In the event that the PURCHASER does not fulfill its obligations as provided for in this Clause 7.6, the CONTRACTOR will be entitled to suspend the performance of its obligations under the CONTRACT in accordance with Clause 20.2.

7.6.1    Where the CONTRACTOR has agreed to inspect the installation jointly with, or separately to, the PURCHASER it does so for the sole purpose of (i) checking, to the extent that it is reasonably possible to do so, that to the best of its commissioning engineer(s) knowledge the installation has been carried out by the PURCHASER in accordance with the CONTRACTOR’S installation instructions provided in the Installation Manual and (ii) enabling the commencement of COMMISSIONING. Inspection by the CONTRACTOR’S commissioning engineer(s) is a condition precedent to the validity of the CONTRACTOR’S warranty under Clause 13. This inspection however does not relieve the PURCHASER from being solely responsible for the quality of the installation and/or defects in the EQUIPMENT caused or contributed to by discrepancies, errors or omissions in the installation of the EQUIPMENT. Any future claim that is caused or contributed to by incorrect installation of the EQUIPMENT will be the responsibility of the PURCHASER (and therefore rejected by the CONTRACTOR) regardless of any inspection having been conducted by the CONTRACTOR and/or regardless of what is represented in ANNEX B1.

7.7    The CONTRACTOR will be responsible for any discrepancies, errors and omissions in its drawings and information, supplied in writing to the PURCHASER, whether or not the PURCHASER has approved them in accordance with Clause 7.3. Subject always to the limitations and exclusions of the CONTRACTOR’S liability in Clause 18, the CONTRACTOR will reimburse any additional and reasonable direct cost incurred by the PURCHASER which is caused directly by the PURCHASER’S reasonable reliance on such
Page 14 of 50

Contract Reference: [***]
Contractor Reference number: [***]


discrepancies, errors and omissions. Provided that, irrespective of the foregoing, where information has been provided by or on behalf of the PURCHASER to the CONTRACTOR, and has been relied upon by the CONTRACTOR, the terms of Clause 7.8 will apply.

7.8    The PURCHASER will be responsible for the drawings and information supplied in writing by or on behalf of the PURCHASER or anyone in the PURCHASER’S service. The PURCHASER will reimburse any additional and reasonable direct cost incurred by the CONTRACTOR which results directly from the CONTRACTOR’S reasonable reliance on any discrepancies, errors and omissions in such drawings and information supplied including without limitation which results in amendments to the EQUIPMENT and/or SERVICES. If the CONTRACTOR is delayed in the performance of its contractual obligations due to any discrepancies, errors and/or omissions in such drawings and information supplied by or on behalf of the PURCHASER then the CONTRACTOR will be entitled to a reasonable and appropriate extension of time and the PROJECT TIME SCHEDULE will be modified accordingly.

7.9    If the PURCHASER delays the CONTRACTOR by failing to provide the required information, documents and/or any necessary approvals required in this Clause 7, then the CONTRACTOR will be entitled to a reasonable and appropriate extension of time under Clause 9.2. Furthermore, the CONTRACTOR will be entitled to recover from the PURCHASER any reasonable direct costs incurred by the CONTRACTOR arising out of or in connection with the PURCHASER’S failure to comply with this Clause 7.

7.10    Where the CONTRACTOR has agreed as part of its scope of supply to provide limited supervisory services to the PURCHASER during the placement of the GENSETS onto the Foundation Plates by the PURCHASER, it will do so in accordance with ANNEX A1. The purpose of the supervisory services undertaken by the CONTRACTOR will be solely to check, to the extent that it is reasonably possible to do so, that the CONTRACTOR’S installation instructions given in the Installation Manual for the placement of GENSETS onto the Foundation Plates are being followed by the PURCHASER. Such supervision by the CONTRACTOR does not relieve the PURCHASER from being solely responsible for the quality of the installation and/or defects in the EQUIPMENT caused or contributed to by discrepancies, errors or omissions in the installation of the EQUIPMENT. Any future claim that is caused or contributed to by incorrect installation of the EQUIPMENT will be the responsibility of the PURCHASER (and therefore rejected by the CONTRACTOR) regardless of any supervisory services having been conducted by the CONTRACTOR.

7.11    The PARTIES to the CONTRACT will use SI-units in all documentation and correspondence.

8    VARIATIONS

8.1    The CONTRACTOR may, without the approval of the PURCHASER or any VARIATION ORDER, implement minor VARIATIONS in the form of a change to the technical specification of the EQUIPMENT and/or technical modifications of the EQUIPMENT, provided that these changes and/or modifications do not result in additional costs to the PURCHASER, or a delay in DELIVERY, or jeopardize safety or layout on SITE or affect the PERFORMANCE GUARANTEES given by the CONTRACTOR. In such case, no AMENDMENT to the CONTRACT is required.




Page 15 of 50

Contract Reference: [***]
Contractor Reference number: [***]


8.2    Should a major VARIATION be required by the CONTRACTOR, then the PURCHASER’S approval will be obtained. The PURCHASER’S approval will not be unreasonably withheld and, if such approval is given, the PURCHASER will without delay issue a VARIATION ORDER. Should a major VARIATION be required by the PURCHASER, then the CONTRACTOR’S approval will be obtained. Subject to Clause 8.7, the CONTRACTOR’S approval will not be unreasonably withheld. If such approval is given by the CONTRACTOR, the PURCHASER will without delay issue a VARIATION ORDER. For the purposes of this Clause 8.2, a major VARIATION is a change to the technical specification of the EQUIPMENT and/or technical modifications of the EQUIPMENT which would result in additional costs to the PURCHASER, or a delay in DELIVERY, or alter layout on SITE or affect the PERFORMANCE GUARANTEES given by the CONTRACTOR.

8.3    Within [***] of receipt of a VARIATION ORDER the CONTRACTOR, or an authorized nominee on behalf of the CONTRACTOR, will submit to the PURCHASER a VARIATION PROPOSAL.

8.4    Within a further [***] of the VARIATION PROPOSAL, the PARTIES will use good faith efforts to agree in writing upon an AMENDMENT incorporating all agreed changes. In the event that the PARTIES fail to reach an agreement on the terms of the AMENDMENT within the time frame set forth in this Clause 8.4, then subject to Clause 8.5 below, the CONTRACTOR will be entitled to (i) review, amend and resubmit its VARIATION PROPOSAL to take account of any changes, including (without limitation) costs, which have occurred as a direct result of the delay, and (ii) an appropriate and reasonable extension of time until an agreement has been reached or the PARTIES (acting reasonably) agree that no VARIATION is required. The PROJECT TIME SCHEDULE will be modified accordingly.

8.5    Until an AMENDMENT is agreed pursuant to Clause 8.4 and is legally effective, the CONTRACTOR will not be obligated to implement the VARIATION and may, at its sole discretion, proceed with its contractual obligations as if no request for VARIATION has been made. The existence of a VARIATION ORDER will not imply any changes to the contractual obligations of the CONTRACTOR until such time as an AMENDMENT is legally effective. Provided that where (i) the VARIATION PROPOSAL necessitates a major change in the manufacturing process and/or design of the EQUIPMENT and (ii) the PARTIES have not agreed an AMENDMENT in accordance with Clause 8.4 within [***] of receipt of the VARIATION PROPOSAL, the CONTRACTOR will be entitled to suspend performance of its obligations in accordance with Clause 20.2 until an agreement has been reached or the PARTIES (acting reasonably) agree that no VARIATION is required.

8.6    Should either PARTY require a VARIATION, other than as set forth in Clauses 8.1 and 8.2, which may affect the CONTRACT PRICE, the PROJECT TIME SCHEDULE, any of the PERFORMANCE GUARANTEES, layout on SITE, or any material right or obligation of either PARTY, then the approval of the other PARTY will be obtained. Subject to Clause 8.7, the other PARTY’S approval will not be unreasonably withheld. If such approval is obtained, the PURCHASER will without delay issue a VARIATION ORDER and the procedure in Clauses 8.3 to 8.5 inclusive will apply.

8.7    The CONTRACTOR will be entitled to withhold its approval for a VARIATION requested by the PURCHASER where the proposed changes (i) are not technically and/or practically feasible, or (ii) are not acceptable to the CONTRACTOR because the proposed changes have a disproportionate impact on the scope of the CONTRACTOR’S obligations, the PROJECT TIME SCHEDULE and/or the CONTRACTOR’S resources.




Page 16 of 50

Contract Reference: [***]
Contractor Reference number: [***]


8.8    A VARIATION ORDER will set out in writing the explicit changes instructed by the PURCHASER in sufficient detail to permit the CONTRACTOR to prepare its VARIATION PROPOSAL.

8.9    When it is necessary to make changes to the EQUIPMENT in accordance with Clause 5.1, Clause 5.1.1 and/or Clause 5.2, the PURCHASER is obligated to raise, without undue delay, a VARIATION ORDER and the procedure in Clauses 8.3 to 8.5 inclusive will apply.

8.10    Should there be a change in the scope of work of the CONTRACTOR or any obligations of the CONTRACTOR or a SUBCONTRACTOR after the date of signing of the CONTRACT necessitated by (i) a change in a mandatory law, regulation, directive or applicable standard affecting the CONTRACT and/or (ii) reasons beyond the reasonable control of the CONTRACTOR or a SUBCONTRACTOR or which are caused by the PURCHASER, a third party or an event of FORCE MAJEURE, then the PARTIES agree that the effect of any such change will be treated as a VARIATION and the PURCHASER will be obligated to raise, without undue delay, a VARIATION ORDER and the procedure in Clauses 8.3 to 8.5 inclusive will apply. The CONTRACTOR will be entitled to a reasonable and appropriate extension of time and additional costs, taking into account the nature of such change. The PARTIES will use good faith efforts to agree to an AMENDMENT and the PROJECT TIME SCHEDULE will be modified accordingly. In the event that the CONTRACTOR and PURCHASER are unable to reach a mutual agreement on the AMENDMENT, then the dispute resolution process in Clause 23 will apply.

9    PROJECT TIME SCHEDULE

9.1    The CONTRACT will be performed in accordance with the dates and/or periods in the PROJECT TIME SCHEDULE. The project managers of the respective PARTIES will ensure that the PROJECT TIME SCHEDULE is updated and modified as required in order to reflect the latest status of the PROJECT performance.

9.2    If, by reason of any VARIATION ORDERS pursuant to Clauses 4.2, 4.4, 4.4.2, 5.1, 5.1.1, 5.2, and 8, or by reason of any act or omission on the part of the PURCHASER, any event of FORCE MAJEURE or any other event beyond the reasonable control of the CONTRACTOR, the CONTRACTOR is, or will be, delayed in the performance of the CONTRACTOR’S obligations under the CONTRACT, then provided that the CONTRACTOR gives to the PURCHASER, as soon as reasonably practicable, notice of its claim for an extension of time with supporting details, the PURCHASER will on receipt and within a [***] period of such notice grant the CONTRACTOR a reasonable and appropriate extension of time, taking account of all relevant circumstances. The PROJECT TIME SCHEDULE will be modified accordingly.

9.3    The failure by the PURCHASER to (i) make any payment due to the CONTRACTOR, and/or (ii) produce or extend any parent company guarantee, as required under the CONTRACT will entitle the CONTRACTOR, at its discretion, to an equivalent extension of time and/or the right to suspend its performance of the CONTRACT under Clause 20.2.

9.4    Where the performance of the CONTRACT, or any aspect thereof, overruns the agreed PROJECT TIME SCHEDULE for reasons attributable to the PURCHASER’S delay in the performance of any of its obligations including without limitation (i) a delay in casting or curing the civil foundations, or (ii) a delay or failure to achieve general readiness of the SITE to receive the EQUIPMENT, or (iii) delay in installation works, the CONTRACTOR will, in addition to any other remedy the CONTRACTOR may have, be entitled to be paid by the PURCHASER reasonable additional costs for CONTRACT prolongation, including without limitation additional project management and administration costs. The
Page 17 of 50

Contractor Reference number: [***]


CONTRACTOR will submit its claim for such prolongation costs in writing to the PURCHASER as soon as reasonably practicable.
10    INSTALLATION, COMMISSIONING, PERFORMANCE TESTS AND TAKE OVER

10.1    The PURCHASER will install the EQUIPMENT in accordance with the CONTRACTOR’S Installation Manual.

10.2    The PURCHASER will notify the CONTRACTOR of any specific regulations and requirements applicable to the CONTRACTOR’S personnel or representatives for access to and working on SITE. Such notification to be made in a timely manner, but in no case less than [***] before the relevant date(s) set for the commencement of COMMISSIONING in the PROJECT TIME SCHEDULE. The PURCHASER will provide any reasonable assistance to the CONTRACTOR for necessary travel arrangements for its personnel or representatives to ensure that such personnel or representatives are available to be on SITE by the date(s) set for the commencement of COMMISSIONING in the PROJECT TIME SCHEDULE.

10.3    In case of nonconformity by the PURCHASER with applicable Health, Safety and Environmental (HS&E) requirements, or risk of injury to its personnel or representatives due to SITE conditions, the CONTRACTOR will have the right to suspend its performance of the CONTRACT under Clause 20.2 until the nonconformity or risk has been rectified. The PURCHASER will pay for any costs incurred by CONTRACTOR as a result of the suspension, including those costs set forth in Clause 20.3.

10.4    The CONTRACTOR will conduct pre-commissioning checks to confirm, in so far as it is reasonably able to do so, that the PURCHASER has completed the pre-commissioning activities in accordance with ANNEX B1 and will then perform the COMMISSIONING of the EQUIPMENT. Such pre-commissioning checks do not, however, relieve the PURCHASER from being solely responsible for the quality of the installation as set forth in Clauses 7.6.1 or 7.10 as applicable.

10.5    COMMISSIONING, Start Up, PERFORMANCE TESTS and TAKE OVER of the supplied EQUIPMENT will be executed in accordance with the procedures prescribed in ANNEX B2 and/or ANNEX B3 (as the case may be).

10.5.1    The PURCHASER is responsible for arranging and conducting, at its own cost, the emissions testing of the plant, such testing to be carried out during the PERFORMANCE TESTS so as not to delay TAKE OVER.

10.6.3    The PURCHASER’S and CONTRACTOR’S representative at SITE have completed and signed the TAKE OVER Certificate in the form in ANNEX B4. For the avoidance of doubt, should the representative of the PURCHASER fail to sign the TAKE OVER certificate, without reasonable cause, within [***] of the PERFORMANCE TESTS having been completed, then TAKE OVER will be deemed to have taken place.
10.7    Until TAKE OVER, only the CONTRACTOR or its personnel or representative(s) will be authorized to operate the EQUIPMENT or any part of the EQUIPMENT.

10.8    Prior to TAKE OVER, the PURCHASER may only operate the EQUIPMENT, or any part of the EQUIPMENT, with the CONTRACTOR’S prior written approval.

10.9    Irrespective of anything to the contrary stated in this Clause 10, any COMMERCIAL OPERATION of the EQUIPMENT, or any part of the EQUIPMENT, without the prior written approval of the CONTRACTOR will be deemed to be TAKE OVER of the relevant EQUIPMENT. In the case of deemed TAKE OVER for COMMERCIAL OPERATION, the CONTRACTOR will not (i) be required to conduct any PERFORMANCE TEST and (ii) provide any warranty, for the relevant EQUIPMENT (or part thereof). The CONTRACTOR will only be required to complete any minor obligations expressly included in an agreed SNAGGING LIST for the relevant EQUIPMENT (or part thereof).

10.10    The WARRANTY PERIOD for the EQUIPMENT (or any part thereof) will commence upon TAKE OVER as per Clause 10.6.

10.11    If required, the PURCHASER will provide reasonable assistance to the CONTRACTOR to allow temporary import of the CONTRACTOR’S equipment and tools for use at SITE during installation, COMMISSIONING and testing of the EQUIPMENT. For the avoidance of doubt, ownership of all such CONTRACTOR’S equipment and tools will remain vested in the CONTRACTOR.

10.12    The CONTRACTOR will observe all applicable regulations regarding safety on the SITE where and to the extent that the PURCHASER has notified the CONTRACTOR of such applicable regulations pursuant to Clause 7.6 (iii).

Furthermore, the PURCHASER will, where necessary, be responsible at its own cost for ensuring that the EQUIPMENT is accessible and/or disconnecting the EQUIPMENT from other plant or a system, to permit the CONTRACTOR to implement the repair or replacement. The warranty for any part or component which has been repaired or replaced under this Clause 13.5 will be [***] from the installation of such repaired or replaced part or component or the end of the original WARRANTY PERIOD for the relevant GENSET, whichever is later.

13.7    The CONTRACTOR will remedy defects for which the CONTRACTOR is responsible under this Clause 13 as soon as reasonably practicable after the root cause of such defect has been identified.

Provided always that such reasonable period will take into account manufacturing lead times, delivery periods, and redesign or modification periods (if necessary) and all other relevant circumstances.

13.8    If the CONTRACTOR fails, for reasons attributable to the CONTRACTOR, to remedy a defect for which the CONTRACTOR is responsible under this Clause 13 within the time agreed pursuant to Clause 13.7, the PURCHASER is entitled (having provided [***] prior written notice to the CONTRACTOR) to execute such work as is necessary to remedy the defect at cost to the CONTRACTOR. Provided always that the PURCHASER will not be entitled to claim from the CONTRACTOR any cost for remedying such defect which exceeds the CONTRACTOR’S own estimated cost to execute such works necessary to remedy the defect plus [***]. The CONTRACTOR will (acting reasonably) prepare a bona fide estimate of the cost of such necessary works and provide such estimate to the PURCHASER prior to expiration of the [***] notice period referred to in this Clause 13.8.

To the fullest extent permitted by law, upon expiration of the WARRANTY PERIOD the CONTRACTOR will have no further obligations and/or liability arising out of or in connection with failures of, or defects in, the EQUIPMENT.

Unless otherwise agreed by the PARTIES in writing, the PURCHASER will make such payments within [***] of invoice date.

15.2    Where the CONTRACTOR is entitled to be paid any additional costs in accordance with the terms of this CONTRACT, including without limitation prolongation costs, storage costs, costs of suspension, or escalation costs, then the CONTRACTOR will be entitled to invoice the PURCHASER for such costs periodically, (however no more frequently than on a monthly basis). Unless otherwise agreed by the PARTIES in writing, the PURCHASER will make such payment within [***] of the invoice date.

15.3    In the case of a VARIATION to the scope of the CONTRACTOR’S works where no payment milestone has been included in ANNEXES C1 or C3, then the CONTRACTOR will be entitled to invoice the PURCHASER for such works contemporaneously as the works progress. Unless otherwise agreed by the PARTIES in writing, the PURCHASER will make such payment within [***] of the invoice date.

15.4    Unless agreed otherwise by the PARTIES in writing, any and all payments made by the PURCHASER will be in the currency of the CONTRACT PRICE. No payment will be deemed to have been made by the PURCHASER until the full amount due is unconditionally credited to the nominated bank account of the CONTRACTOR.

15.5    The PURCHASER will provide a parent company guarantee from Liberty Energy Inc. which will be issued in the form attached in ANNEX D1, or if no form is attached then in a form and substance which is acceptable to the CONTRACTOR. The parent company guarantee will be issued to the CONTRACTOR for the final [***] of CONTRACT PRICE and will become valid no later than [***] before the date set for the final scheduled DISPATCH of EQUIPMENT. The parent company guarantee must remain valid for at least [***] after the planned TAKE OVER date set forth in ANNEX C1 or [***] after the date the CONTRACTOR declares the last GENERATOR SETS ready for DISPATCH, whichever is later. If the PURCHASER fails to issue the parent company guarantee by the time required in this Clause 15.5, the CONTRACTOR will be entitled to postpone DELIVERY, without liability, and will be entitled to an extension of time which is equal to the period of delay by the PURCHASER in issuing the parent company guarantee ANNEX C1 will be modified accordingly.

15.9    If the PURCHASER fails to pay any payment by its due date the CONTRACTOR will, in addition to its rights under Clause 9.3, be entitled to charge the PURCHASER interest from the day on which such payment became due until the time that such payment is received from the PURCHASER, at a rate of [***].

15.10    The PURCHASER acknowledges and agrees that in case of (i) any delays to the performance of the CONTRACT (including without limitation suspension or FORCE MAJEURE) which are not solely caused by the fault of the CONTRACTOR or (ii) any extension of the PROJECT TIME SCHEDULE in accordance with the terms of the CONTRACT which occur after the issue of the parent company guarantee to the CONTRACTOR but before receipt by the CONTRACTOR of the final milestone payment referred to in Clause 15.5 above, then the PURCHASER will at its own cost ensure, without undue delay, that the term of the parent company guarantee is extended by a period equal to the applicable delay or extension of the PROJECT TIME SCHEDULE. Where a delay to the performance of the CONTRACT is solely caused by the fault of the CONTRACTOR, the CONTRACTOR will be entitled to require the PURCHASER to obtain an extension to the validity of the parent company guarantee by a period equal to the applicable delay, however in such case the cost of implementing such extension will be borne by the CONTRACTOR. Evidence of an extension of the validity of the parent company guarantee obtained in accordance with this Clause 15.10 will be provided to the CONTRACTOR. Failure by the PURCHASER to fulfill its obligations under this Clause 15.10 will be deemed to constitute a MATERIAL BREACH of CONTRACT and, without prejudice to the remedy available to the CONTRACTOR under Clause 21.3, the CONTRACTOR will be entitled to suspend performance of its obligations under Clause 20.2.

16    CUSTOMS, IMPORT DUTIES, TAXES AND OTHER CHARGES

Any such taxes, duties and indirect taxes will be paid by the PURCHASER in addition to the CONTRACT PRICE. The PURCHASER will either (i) reimburse such taxes, duties and/or indirect taxes to the CONTRACTOR as may be levied directly against the CONTRACTOR, or (ii) declare and pay any such taxes, duties and/or indirect taxes directly to the relevant local authority, as may be required by the law in the country of the PURCHASER or in the country in which the EQUIPMENT is installed and/or the SERVICES are actually rendered, as the case may be.

16.4    The PARTIES agree to pay and bear all other costs, taxes, duties and indirect taxes whatsoever which are levied or payable in connection with the exportation and/or transportation of the EQUIPMENT, (whether or not in BATCHES), in accordance with the agreed DELIVERY terms in ANNEX C4.

16.5    If a withholding tax deduction is required by any law to be made in connection with any payment to be made by the PURCHASER to the CONTRACTOR under this CONTRACT, then the payment due from the PURCHASER to the CONTRACTOR will be increased to an amount which (after making such deduction) will ensure that the CONTRACTOR receives an amount equivalent to the payment which would have been due if no withholding tax deduction had been required. The PURCHASER will declare and pay the withholding tax to the relevant tax authorities within the time required. The PURCHASER will provide to the CONTRACTOR in a timely manner a copy of the official certificate issued by the local tax authorities evidencing that the withholding tax has been paid.

16.6    Any delay in the transport of the EQUIPMENT and/or any other obligation of the CONTRACTOR due to a failure of the PURCHASER to fulfill any of its obligations under this Clause 16 will entitle the CONTRACTOR to an extension of time and additional costs and will be treated as a VARIATION. Provided that where the PURCHASER fails to fulfil its obligations under this Clause 16 within a period of [***] from receipt of the notice of readiness to DISPATCH then the CONTRACTOR will be entitled to suspend the performance of its obligations in accordance with Clause 20.2.

17    LIQUIDATED DAMAGES LIABILITY

17.1    The PARTIES acknowledge and irrevocably agree that actual damages resulting from delay or failure to attain a PERFORMANCE GUARANTEE are difficult or impossible to ascertain with certainty, and that the liquidated damages provided herein are a fair and reasonable estimate of the harm caused by such delay or failure to attain a PERFORMANCE GUARANTEE and are not a penalty.

17.2    The PARTIES agree that, to the fullest extent permitted by law, in no case will the total aggregate liability of the CONTRACTOR for any and all liquidated damages (whether for delay and/or non-performance of the EQUIPMENT) agreed in the CONTRACT exceed a maximum of [***] of the CONTRACT PRICE.

17.3    The PARTIES have agreed to the liquidated damages liability and/or preconditions to the application of such liquidated damages which are set forth in this Clause 17.

17.3.1    Where a DELIVERY MILESTONE is specified in ANNEX C1 for a specific DELIVERY, then where the CONTRACTOR fails to achieve such DELIVERY MILESTONE the PURCHASER will be entitled, (subject to the conditions in this Clause 17), to claim liquidated damages for delay for each failure to achieve a DELIVERY MILESTONE in the amount of [***] of the value of the EQUIPMENT delivered late for each [***] of delay up to and in no case exceeding a maximum of [***] of the value of the EQUIPMENT delivered late. Provided always that the PARTIES agree that where more than one DELIVERY MILESTONE has been specified in ANNEX C1 then, to the fullest extent permitted by law, in no case will the total aggregate liability of the CONTRACTOR for any and all liquidated damages for delay set forth in this Clause 17.3.1 exceed a maximum of [***] of the CONTRACT PRICE.

17.3.2    The CONTRACTOR will for each DELIVERY MILESTONE be allowed a grace period of [***] prior to the application of liquidated damages under Clause 17.3.1, therefore the liquidated damages for such delay may be applied against the CONTRACTOR from the [***] day after the relevant DELIVERY MILESTONE.


Page 26 of 50

Contract Reference: [***]
Contractor Reference number: [***]


17.3.3    Irrespective of the above, the PURCHASER agrees that unless a failure to achieve a DELIVERY MILESTONE is caused solely by the fault of the CONTRACTOR, it cannot impose liquidated damages for delay in DELIVERY to the proportionate extent that such failure to achieve a DELIVERY MILESTONE is not caused by the CONTRACTOR. Further, liquidated damages will not be payable by the CONTRACTOR when failure to achieve a DELIVERY MILESTONE is attributable to FORCE MAJEURE, the PURCHASER or a third party (with the exception of SUBCONTRACTORS).

17.3.4    Liquidated damages for failure to achieve the PERFORMANCE GUARANTEES given by the CONTRACTOR for the EQUIPMENT are specifically set forth in ANNEX A3. Provided always that the PARTIES agree that, to the fullest extent permitted by law, in no case will the total aggregate liability of the CONTRACTOR for any and all liquidated damages for failure to achieve the PERFORMANCE GUARANTEES set forth in ANNEX A3 exceed a maximum of [***] of the CONTRACT PRICE.

17.4    Except as set forth in Clauses 21.2, 21.2.2, 21.2.4 and 21.9, liquidated damages for delay in DELIVERY and, subject to Clause 11, failure to achieve PERFORMANCE GUARANTEES will constitute the CONTRACTOR’S exclusive obligation and the PURCHASER’S sole and exclusive right and remedy arising out of or in connection with any and all delay by the CONTRACTOR in the performance of the CONTRACT and/or non-performance of the EQUIPMENT including failure to meet the PERFORMANCE GUARANTEES.

17.5    The payment of liquidated damages will be due within [***] after (i) receiving a written notice from the PURCHASER setting out the basis for its claim for the payment of such liquidated damages, and (ii) the PARTIES, acting reasonably, having agreed the PURCHASER’S undisputed right to receive such liquidated damages under the CONTRACT. For the avoidance of doubt, in determining the PURCHASER’S undisputed right to receive the liquidated damages claimed, the PARTIES will be permitted a reasonable time (not exceeding [***]) for the proper examination of all relevant circumstances and applicable documentation. If the PARTIES are unable to agree on the PURCHASER’S right to claim liquidated damages within the stated period, then the dispute resolution process in Clause 23 will apply.

17.6    The PURCHASER’S right to liquidated damages will be forfeited if the written notice required in Clause 17.5 has not been received by the CONTRACTOR within [***] after TAKE OVER.

18    LIABILITY

18.1         Subject to the conditions contained in this Clause 18, (and save where the CONTRACTOR’S liability has been specifically limited or excluded elsewhere in this CONTRACT, including without limitation Clause 17), the CONTRACTOR’S liability to the PURCHASER under, arising out of, or in connection with the CONTRACT will be limited to and in no case exceed:

18.4    To the fullest extent permitted by law, the limitations, exclusions and conditions stated in this Clause 18 will apply for any liability of the CONTRACTOR under, arising out of or in connection with the CONTRACT of whatsoever nature and howsoever arising (whether in contract, in tort, strict liability, economic tort, equity, operation of law, in connection with any indemnity obligation or warranty claim expressly provided for in the CONTRACT, or otherwise); provided, however, that the limitations, exclusions and conditions stated under this Clause 18 do not apply in the case of CONTRACTOR’s fraud, gross negligence, willful act or omission, or in the case of any other liability which may not be limited or excluded by operation of mandatory law.
18.5    For the avoidance of doubt, the liability caps set forth in this Clause 18 are not intended to preclude PURCHASER from seeking any amount of a refund that PURCHASER may be entitled to under the terms of this CONTRACT, and any such refunded amounts shall not apply towards the liability caps set forth herein.

24.10.3    That such CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION was received without restriction on further disclosure or use from a third party who lawfully acquired it and who is itself under no obligation restricting its confidentiality, disclosure or use; or

24.10.4    From its records and/or extrinsic evidence that such CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION was generated independently of that received under or in connection with this CONTRACT, and that a right of prior use existed; or
24.10.5    That the disclosure of such CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION was compelled by operation of mandatory law and that the receiving PARTY took all reasonable steps (to the extent permitted by law) (i) to provide without delay prior written notice to the disclosing PARTY (together with a copy of any relevant access request or court order) to permit the disclosing PARTY time and opportunity to protect its interests, and (ii) after taking legal advice, to resist or narrow the disclosure to only that which it was legally compelled to disclose, and (iii) to ensure that the CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION which it was compelled to disclose was afforded confidential treatment.

24.11    Notwithstanding the expiry or termination of this CONTRACT for any reason, the confidentiality and/or non-disclosure obligations of the PARTIES with respect to CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION will survive (i) to the fullest extent permitted by law in perpetuity (or otherwise for the maximum period permitted by law taking into account the nature of the CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION), or (ii) until such CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION enters the public domain through no fault of the receiving PARTY, (its PERMITTED RECIPIENTS, or third parties to which disclosure has been made in accordance with Clause 24.6).

24.12    The PARTIES agree that all data held within the engine control cabinet, or any other data collection and/or storage system forming part of the EQUIPMENT (for example the LCC or IPC as applicable), including operating data will belong to, and remain at all times vested in, Bergen Engines AS or its AFFILIATE or SUBCONTRACTOR (as the case may be). The CONTRACTOR hereby grants the PURCHASER a non-exclusive, non-transferable, royalty-free license to use such data solely for the purpose of operating and maintaining the EQUIPMENT. Such license will in no case permit the PURCHASER, to use the license for the purpose of re-producing EQUIPMENT (or any component thereof), modifying or altering the EQUIPMENT, producing or permitting third parties to produce spare parts or components or other use beyond operation and maintenance of the EQUIPMENT. The CONTRACTOR retains the right to revoke or terminate, at its discretion, any such license with immediate effect should the PURCHASER breach any restrictions on use related to the data used under the license.

24.13    All CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION of the CONTRACTOR and/or its AFFILIATES or SUBCONTRACTORS as the case may be, including but not limited to drawings and technical data, remains the property of, and vested in, the CONTRACTOR and/or its AFFILIATES or SUBCONTRACTORS as the case may be. The CONTRACTOR hereby grants the PURCHASER a royalty free, non-exclusive, non-transferable license to use the CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION relating to the EQUIPMENT for the limited purpose of operating and maintaining the EQUIPMENT for generating power at the SITE only and no other purpose whatsoever. Should the PURCHASER use the CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION relating to the EQUIPMENT for the purpose of re-producing the EQUIPMENT (or any component thereof), modifying or altering the EQUIPMENT, producing or permitting third parties to produce spare parts or components or any other use beyond operating and maintaining the EQUIPMENT for generating power at the SITE or otherwise breach any of the restrictions on use, confidentiality and/or any non-disclosure obligations under this Clause 24, then the CONTRACTOR will be entitled, at its discretion, to revoke or terminate this license with immediate effect.


24.14    If any proven claim has been asserted against the PURCHASER that any part of the EQUIPMENT constitutes a violation or infringement of any patent, copyright, registered design or other proprietary right held by a third party, where such violation or infringement is caused by the CONTRACTOR, then the PURCHASER will notify the CONTRACTOR without undue delay. The CONTRACTOR may at its sole discretion (i) acquire the necessary licenses to permit the PURCHASER to operate and maintain the EQUIPMENT, or (ii) replace or modify the EQUIPMENT, or infringing part thereof, to render the EQUIPMENT non-infringing, or (iii) terminate the CONTRACT. In the event that the CONTRACTOR elects to proceed with (i) or (ii) above, this will constitute the sole right and remedy of the PURCHASER arising out of or in connection with a proven allegation or proven claim of violation or infringement of the intellectual property rights of such third party. Where the CONTRACTOR elects to terminate the CONTRACT pursuant to (iii) above, this will be deemed to be a MATERIAL BREACH and the PURCHASER may, as its sole right and remedy, pursue the remedies provided to it in Clause 21.2.

24.15    The PURCHASER agrees to indemnify the CONTRACTOR against any damages, losses, costs, expenses, (including legal fees), responsibilities and claims arising out of or in connection with a violation or infringement of any patent, copyright, registered design or other proprietary right held by a third party which arises strictly due to modifications made to the EQUIPMENT by PURCHASER ; provided, however, that PURCHASER’S maximum liability under this Clause 24.15 shall be limited to and in no case exceed [***] of the CONTRACT PRICE. Subject to the foregoing and Clause 18.2, the CONTRACTOR agrees to indemnify the PURCHASER against any damages, losses, costs, expenses, (including legal fees), responsibilities and claims arising out of or in connection with a violation or infringement of any patent, copyright, registered design or other proprietary right held by a third party which otherwise arises in connection with the EQUIPMENT.

24.16    Each PARTY agrees not to disclose or provide to the other PARTY any PROHIBITED INFORMATION whether specifically related to the subject matter of this CONTRACT or otherwise. In the event that, notwithstanding the foregoing, a PARTY has received any PROHIBITED INFORMATION then such PARTY will without delay (i) notify the other PARTY in writing that they have received, and the nature of, the PROHIBITED INFORMATION, (ii) delete or procure the deletion of such PROHIBITED INFORMATION and any copy thereof, and (iii) ensure that such PROHIBITED INFORMATION is not disclosed or further disseminated and is treated in strictest confidence.

24.17    Reserved.

24.18    The PARTIES and each of them acknowledge and agree that, due to the nature, sensitivity and commercial value of the CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION disclosed by, or on behalf of, the disclosing PARTY to the receiving PARTY, (or its PERMITTED RECIPIENTS or third parties to which disclosure has been made in accordance with Clause 24.6 above), under this CONTRACT, damages alone would not be a sufficient remedy to compensate the disclosing PARTY for harm suffered as a result of a breach by the receiving PARTY, (or its PERMITTED RECIPIENTS or third parties to which disclosure has been made in accordance with Clause 24.6 above), of their obligations under this Clause 24. The PARTIES agree that without prejudice to any other right or remedy permitted under this CONTRACT, the non-defaulting PARTY will be entitled to seek injunctive relief.

25    ASSIGNMENT, NOVATION AND SUB-CONTRACTING
    
25.1    Neither PARTY will novate the CONTRACT or assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights, benefits, entitlements or obligations under the CONTRACT to a third party without the prior written consent of the other PARTY. In the event of the prior written consent of the other PARTY having been obtained, as required in this Clause 25.1, the consenting PARTY agrees to provide reasonable cooperation in documenting any such novation, assignment, or transfer, provided that such documentation must be on terms and in a form which is acceptable to the consenting PARTY.

25.2    Neither PARTY will subcontract the whole of its respective scope of supply under the CONTRACT. Each PARTY will be responsible for all equipment, services and any ancillary works supplied by its subcontractors.

26    ENTIRE AGREEMENT

26.1    This CONTRACT will constitute the entire agreement and understanding between the PARTIES in relation to its subject matter and will supersede and replace (i) any Letter of Intent (LOI) relating to this CONTRACT which was previously entered into by the PARTIES and/or (ii) all prior oral and written agreements, communications, statements and/or understandings in so far as they apply to the subject matter of this CONTRACT. Any statements, assurances, promises, warranties, undertakings, guarantees or representations intended to be provided by the CONTRACTOR to the PURCHASER are those expressly included in this CONTRACT and, to the fullest extent permitted by law, no additional statements, assurances, promises, warranties, undertakings, guarantees or representations (whether express, collateral or otherwise) by the CONTRACTOR to the PURCHASER will be implied into this CONTRACT and are expressly and intentionally excluded. The PURCHASER acknowledges and agrees that it does not rely upon, has not relied upon, and will have no remedy in respect of, (i) any statement, assurance, promise, undertaking or representation, whether negligently or innocently made, of any person (whether a PARTY to the CONTRACT or not) or (ii) any guarantee, warranty or previous understanding, other than as expressly set out in this CONTRACT. No PARTY seeks to exclude or limit its liability for fraudulent misrepresentation upon which another PARTY can be shown to have relied.

27    HEADINGS

27.1        The clause headings included in this document or in the ANNEXES are for convenience only and will not affect the interpretation of the CONTRACT.

28    RELATIONSHIP OF THE PARTIES
    
28.1    The relationship of the PARTIES is that of independent contractors. No relationship of agent and principal, employer and employee, partnership or fiduciary relationship exists, or will be construed to exist, between the PARTIES and are hereby expressly excluded.

28.2    A PARTY will not contract in the name of, or in any way bind, the other PARTY without the other PARTY’S express prior written consent. A PARTY will not hold itself out as the representative, partner or agent of the other PARTY nor take any action which might result in any third party construing or understanding that such PARTY has authority to contract or enter into any binding commitment on behalf of the other PARTY.

28.3    Each PARTY will be responsible for its own employees. None of the employees, servants or agents of a PARTY will be considered, or in any way represent themselves, as being employees, servants or agents of the other PARTY or be entitled to any of the benefits supplied by that other PARTY to its own employees.

29    SURVIVAL

29.1    Any provision of this CONTRACT which due to its nature and/or the intention of the PARTIES should survive expiration or termination of this CONTRACT will survive such expiration or termination of this CONTRACT. In particular, the PARTIES agree that Clauses 7.1.1, 13.9, 17, 18, 21, 23, 24, 26.1, 30.6, 30.7, 31.1, 33.1, 36.1, 36.2, 37.8, 37.9, 38 and this Clause 29.1 will survive expiration or termination of this CONTRACT.



30    COMPLIANCE WITH LAWS
    
30.1    Each PARTY confirms that it will comply with mandatory applicable laws of the European Union, Norway, England and Wales, United States of America, the country of the PURCHASER or the SITE, (as may be applicable to the performance of the CONTRACT), where such mandatory applicable laws (i) relate to ABC LAWS, anti-money laundering, antitrust and competition, export controls, data protection, anti-discrimination and human rights, tax and fraud, and (ii) are current and subsequently in place during the validity of the CONTRACT. Upon reasonable request by one PARTY the other PARTY will demonstrate that it has appropriate measures in place to comply with such mandatory applicable laws.

30.2    To the extent that personal data is being transferred and processed in connection with this CONTRACT each PARTY undertakes that it will have in place appropriate technical and organizational measures to (i) protect the personal data against unlawful destruction or loss, alteration, unauthorized disclosure or access, and (ii) provide a level of security appropriate to the risk represented by the processing and the nature of the data to be protected. Each PARTY further undertakes that to the extent applicable it will process such personal data only in relation to the performance of its contractual obligations.

30.3    Each PARTY undertakes that it and its AFFILIATED PERSONS in connection with the performance of the PARTY’S respective obligations under the CONTRACT:

30.3.1    Have to the best of their knowledge complied, (and will continue to comply), with all mandatory applicable laws referred to in Clause 30.1 and have to the best of their knowledge not taken, (and will not take or fail to take), any action, where such act or omission would subject the other PARTY to liability under such mandatory applicable laws;

30.3.2    Will not intentionally offer or promise an INAPPROPRIATE INDUCEMENT whether directly or through intermediaries; and

30.3.3    Will make their respective best efforts to completely document and archive the documentation concerning business relationships with GOVERNMENT OFFICIALS.

30.4    Each PARTY confirms that where and to the extent required by mandatory applicable law referred to in Clause 30.1 it will, and will use its best efforts to procure that its AFFILIATED PERSONS will, include materially similar obligations to those obligations set forth in Clauses 30.1, 30.2, 30.3 and this Clause 30.4 in any contracts, agreements or purchase orders related to this CONTRACT.

30.5    Either PARTY will be entitled at its own cost, upon providing reasonable prior written notice of no less than four (4) weeks to the other PARTY, to conduct at the other PARTY’S premises at an agreed time during normal working hours an audit for the purposes of verifying the other PARTY’S compliance with its obligations under this Clause 30. Such audit will be conducted by a mutually agreed independent external law firm or independent accounting firm located in the country of the PARTY whose documents and accounts are to be audited. Such third party auditor will be bound by confidentiality and non-disclosure obligations no less stringent than those contained in Clause 24. The audited PARTY will provide reasonable assistance to the auditors to carry out such audit. Provided that prior to such audit the PARTIES will agree in writing the scope of the audit which will in no case include direct access to (a) servers, networks or other electronic data storage systems and/or (b) documents, data, specifications, information or records of the audited PARTY which (i) constitute CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION, or sensitive market, commercial, financial, or technical information, (ii) are related to other customers or third parties, (iii) are not specifically generated for the CONTRACT, (iv) constitute personal data, and/or (vi) are related to specifications of network protections and details of IT policies. Each PARTY will have the right to conduct an audit in accordance with the terms of this Clause 30.5 at any time during the validity of the CONTRACT but in no case will any such audit be conducted more often than once per [***]. No individual audit under this Clause 30.5 will exceed a period of [***].

30.6    Where a PARTY terminates this CONTRACT in accordance with Clause 30.7, then the defaulting PARTY will indemnify the other PARTY against any direct losses, direct damages, and direct and reasonable costs and/or expenses incurred by the non-defaulting PARTY as a direct result of the proven breach by the defaulting PARTY of its obligations in Clauses 30.1, 30.2, or 30.3 as the case may be. To the fullest extent permitted by law, the indemnity provided in this Clause 30.6 will be subject to the limits and exclusions of liability contained in Clauses 18.1 (more particularly 18.1.3), 18.2, 18.3, 18.4, 18.5, 18.6,18.7, 18.8 and 18.10.3. Provided that the non-defaulting PARTY will be obligated to prove, (and use all reasonable measures to mitigate), any losses, damages, costs and expenses which it intends to claim from the defaulting PARTY under this indemnity. The indemnity in this Clause 30.6 will expire and become null and void [***] after expiration or termination of the CONTRACT. For the avoidance of doubt this indemnity does not apply to losses, damages, costs and expenses incurred by the non-defaulting PARTY in connection with the termination of the CONTRACT for MATERIAL BREACH, which will be recovered by the non-defaulting PARTY as provided for in Clause 21.7. This indemnity will not apply where, and to the extent, that the breach by the defaulting PARTY of its obligations in Clauses 30.1, 30.2, or 30.3 is caused by FORCE MAJEURE.

30.7    Either PARTY may in the case of proven breach by the other PARTY of its obligations in Clauses 30.1, 30.2, or 30.3 terminate this CONTRACT with immediate effect for MATERIAL BREACH by written notice to the other PARTY. In such case the non-defaulting PARTY may exercise the remedies set forth in Clause 21.7 which will, to the fullest extent permitted by law, be the sole and exclusive right and remedies available to the non-defaulting PARTY for such proven MATERIAL BREACH, and/or resulting termination of the CONTRACT.

31    SEVERABILITY

31.1    If any provision, (or part thereof), of this CONTRACT becomes illegal, invalid, or unenforceable, the illegality, invalidity or unenforceability of that provision, (or part thereof), will not invalidate or otherwise affect the remaining provisions. In the case of any such illegality, invalidity or unenforceability the affected provision, (or part thereof), will, to the fullest extent permitted by law, be replaced by a legal, valid or enforceable provision which gives effect, to the fullest extent permitted, to the original intention of the PARTIES.

32    WAIVER AND AMENDMENT

32.1    Unless expressly provided to the contrary elsewhere in this CONTRACT, any failure or delay by a PARTY to exercise or enforce any right, remedy, discretion or power available to that PARTY under this CONTRACT will not constitute, nor will it be construed as, a waiver by such PARTY of that right, remedy, discretion or power. Any waiver by a PARTY in respect of a particular non-performance, default, or breach of the other PARTY will not constitute, nor will it be construed as, a waiver in respect of any other non-performance, breach or default, nor any subsequent repetition of the same non-performance, breach or default. To be effective, any waiver must be expressly made in writing and signed by an authorized representative of the PARTY making the waiver.
32.2    Any amendment, change or modification to the CONTRACT, (including any AMENDMENT), must be in writing and signed by an authorized representative of each PARTY to be binding.

33    RIGHTS OF THIRD PARTIES

33.1    The PARTIES agree that, to the fullest extent permitted by law, except as otherwise expressly provided in this CONTRACT no person or entity who is not a PARTY to this CONTRACT will have any rights to enforce, or benefit from, any of its terms under any applicable law or third party rights legislation. No PARTY enters this CONTRACT as trustee or agent for any other person or entity and no third party will have any beneficial interest in this CONTRACT, except and to the extent expressly stated in this CONTRACT. Nothing in this Clause 33 will affect any rights or remedies available to a third party which may not be excluded under principles of mandatory law.

34    NOTICES AND BANK DETAILS
    
34.1    Any notices, not requiring formal legal service of process, referenced or required to be sent by a PARTY to the other PARTY in accordance with this CONTRACT must be in writing clearly identifying the communication as a notice under the CONTRACT.

Neither Party nor its directors, officers, employees, agents, Affiliates or representatives, nor any independent contractor engaged by it in connection with the performance of this Agreement, shall be deemed an employee of the other Party.

The prevailing Party (as determined by the arbitrator(s)) shall be entitled to reimbursement of its expenses, including reasonable attorney’s fees, incurred in connection with the arbitration and any judicial enforcement of this arbitration agreement, unless the arbitrator(s) determines that it would be manifestly unfair to honor this agreement of the Parties and determines a different allocation of costs. Except to the extent necessary for proceedings relating to enforcement of the arbitration agreement, the award or other, related rights of the Parties, the fact of the arbitration proceeding itself, all evidence, pleadings, or other documents exchanged or used in the arbitration and the award shall be maintained in confidence by the Parties to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law. However, a violation of this covenant shall not affect the enforceability of this agreement to arbitrate or of the award.
18.2.3 Jurisdiction. Each of the Parties expressly agrees to the nonexclusive jurisdiction of a federal court of New York for the adjudication of a preliminary injunction or other provisional judicial remedy as provided in Section 18.2.1. Each of the Parties accepts for itself and in connection with its properties, generally and unconditionally, the nonexclusive jurisdiction of the aforesaid courts and waives any defense of forum non conveniens. Nothing in this Section 18.2.3 is intended to modify or expand the terms and provisions of Section 18.1 or interfere with an application to any court having jurisdiction for the enforcement of the award.
18.3    Governing Law. This Agreement (and this agreement to arbitrate) shall be governed by the laws of the State of New York, without regard to the conflicts of law rules thereof (other than Sections 5-1401 and 5-1402 of the General Obligations Law of the State of New York). The applicability of the United Nations Convention on the International Sale of Goods (Vienna, 1980) is expressly excluded, as well as any national laws implementing it.
18.4    Confidentiality. Except to the extent necessary for proceedings relating to enforcement of this agreement to arbitrate, the award, or other, related rights of the Parties, the fact of the arbitration proceeding itself, all evidence, pleadings, or other documents exchanged or used


Page 35 of 41






in the arbitration and the arbitration award shall be maintained in confidence by the Parties to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law. However, a violation of this covenant shall not affect the enforceability of this agreement to arbitrate or of the arbitration award.
18.5    Severability. The provisions of this agreement to arbitrate are independent of the remaining provisions of this Agreement and the Parties intend that they shall continue in effect even though one or more provisions of the Agreement shall be determined to be null or void. This agreement to arbitrate shall also survive the termination or expiration of this Agreement.

LIMITATION OF LIABILITY

19.1    Liquidated Damages Not Penalty; Total Aggregate Amount. The Parties acknowledge and agree that it would be difficult or impossible to determine with absolute precision the amount of damages that would or might be incurred by Buyer as a result of Supplier’s failure to perform those matters hereunder for which Liquidated Damages are provided. The Parties agree that the amounts of Liquidated Damages provided under this Agreement are in lieu of actual damages and are the Parties’ reasonable estimates of fair compensation for the losses that may reasonably be anticipated from such failures in respect of such matters, and do not constitute a penalty. The total aggregate amount of Liquidated Damages to be paid by the Supplier to Buyer under this Agreement shall in no case exceed [***] (the “Liquidated Damages Cap”). Subject to Section 4.4, payment of Liquidated Damages is Supplier’s sole and exclusive obligation and Buyer’s sole and exclusive remedy with regard to Supplier’s failure to meet the Performance Guarantees and/or applicable Ship Date, whether said claims are designated as arising in contract, warranty, tort (including negligence), strict liability, indemnity or otherwise.

19.3    Exclusion of Consequential Damages. Subject to Section 19.4 and except for Liquidated Damages (if any) or any amounts owed by Buyer pursuant to Section 12.4, in no event, whether as a result of breach of contract, breach of warranty, tort liability (including negligence or strict liability), or otherwise, shall either party be liable to the other for special, indirect, or consequential damages of any nature whatsoever, including losses nor for damages caused by reason of unavailability of the Equipment, shutdowns/loss of power or service interruptions, loss of use, loss of profits or revenue or business interruption, loss of data, inventory or use charges,

Page 36 of 41





cost of purchased or replacement power, interest charges or cost of capital or claims of Buyer’s customers, tenants or end-users.
19.4        Exclusions to Maximum Aggregate Liability and Exclusion of Consequential Damages.    Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, neither the Maximum Liability contained in Section 19.2 nor the Exclusion of Consequential Damages contained in Section 19.3 shall apply in the case of a Party’s (i) fraud, (ii) breach of applicable law regarding that Party’s own operations in the performance of the Party’s obligations under this Agreement, (iii) gross negligence, (iv) willful act or omission, (v) infringement of intellectual property rights of a third party, (including associated indemnification obligations under this Agreement), (vi) breach of confidentiality provisions, or (vii) third party personal injury or death (including associated indemnification obligations under Section 15.1 of this Agreement).

GUARANTY
This GUARANTY (this “Guaranty”), dated as of June 22nd, 2026, is made by Liberty Energy Inc., a Delaware corporation with a business address located at 950 17th Street, Suite 2400, Denver, Colorado 80202 (“Guarantor”), in favor and for the benefit of Wärtsilä North America Inc., a Maryland Corporation with a business address of with a business of 11710 N. Gessner Rd., Suite A, Houston, Texas 77064
(“Beneficiary”).
Reference is made to the Equipment Supply Contract dated as of June 22nd, 2026, by and between Liberty Advanced Equipment Technologies LLC (“Obligor”) and Beneficiary (the “Underlying Agreement”). Any capitalized term used but not defined herein shall have the meaning ascribed to it in the Underlying Agreement. In consideration of the benefits derived by Guarantor from the transactions under the Underlying Agreement, and in order to induce Beneficiary to enter into the Underlying Agreement, Guarantor hereby agrees as follows:
1. Guaranty. During the Term (as defined in Section 11 below), Guarantor absolutely, unconditionally and irrevocably guaranties, as primary obligor and not merely as surety, the full and punctual payment of [***] present and future monetary obligations required to be paid by Obligor under the Underlying Agreement, plus all costs, expenses and fees (including the reasonable and documented fees and expenses of Beneficiary’s counsel) relating to the enforcement of Beneficiary’s rights hereunder (collectively, the Obligations”). If for any reason any Obligations are not paid when due, then Guarantor shall pay such Obligations (or cause such payment to occur) not later than the [***] day after its receipt of a written demand by Beneficiary.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the total liability of Guarantor under this Guaranty shall be limited to an aggregate amount of [***], plus any other amounts which Buyer may owe Supplier under the Underlying Agreement minus (i) the Down Payment and (ii) the amount of the payments made by Obligor under the Underlying Agreement; provided that the foregoing costs, expenses and fees of enforcing this Guaranty will not be subject to this liability limitation. All payments shall be made in US Dollars in accordance with the Underlying Agreement. All payments by the Guarantor under this Guaranty shall be free and clear of, and without liability for withholding or deduction for or on account of, any present or future tax of whatever nature imposed or levied by or on behalf of any jurisdiction.
2. Certain Waivers; Acknowledgments. Guarantor further acknowledges and agrees as follows:
(a) Guarantor hereby unconditionally and irrevocably waives any right to revoke this Guaranty and acknowledges that this Guaranty is continuing in nature and applies to all presently existing and future Obligations until the complete, irrevocable and indefeasible payment and satisfaction in full of the Obligations, without regard to: (i) the extension of time for payment of any Obligation by written agreement of Beneficiary or the amendment, extension or renewal of the Underlying Agreement by the Beneficiary and Obligor; (ii) any delay, omission or failure by the Beneficiary to enforce or exercise any right, or remedy, or any waiver by the Beneficiary of any right or remedy, under the Underlying Agreement or this Guaranty, or in connection with the Obligations; (iii) any bankruptcy, insolvency, dissolution or liquidation of the Obligor; (iv) any merger, consolidation or other reorganization to which the Obligor is a







party, or any direct or indirect sale or disposition of the Guarantor’s direct or indirect ownership interest in the Obligor or any change of control of the Obligor; (v) any modification to the terms of all or any of the Obligations; (vi) any lack, with respect to the Obligor, of genuineness, validity or enforceability of the Obligations; (vii) any failure on the part of the Obligor for any reason to comply with or perform any of the terms of any agreement with the Guarantor; (viii) the acceptance or receipt of the partial payment of the Obligations; (ix) any assignment of the Obligor’s rights under the Underlying Agreement; or (x) any other circumstance that would otherwise constitute a defense available to or discharge of the Guarantor.
(b) This Guaranty is a guaranty of payment and not of collection. Beneficiary shall not be obligated to enforce or exhaust its remedies against Obligor or under the Underlying Agreement before proceeding to enforce this Guaranty.
(c) Guarantor hereby unconditionally and irrevocably waives for the benefit of Beneficiary: (i) notice of acceptance of this Guaranty, notice of the creation or existence of any of the Obligations, and notice of any action by Beneficiary in reliance hereon; (ii) notice of the entry into the Underlying Agreement or notice of any amendments, supplements or modifications thereto; (iii) notice of any increase, reduction or rearrangement of Obligor's obligations under the Underlying Agreement or notice of any extension of time for the payment of any sums due and payable by Obligor under the Underlying Agreement; (iv) presentment, protest and notice of protest, and notice of nonpayment or dishonor of any of the liabilities hereby guaranteed; (v) any requirement that suit be brought against, or any other action be taken by Beneficiary, or any notice of default or other notice to be given to, or any demand be made on Obligor or any other person, or that any other action be taken or not taken as a condition to Guarantor's liability for the Obligations under this Guaranty or as a condition to the enforcement of this Guaranty against Guarantor; and (vi) all rights (whether by counter-claim, setoff or otherwise) and defenses (including, without limitation, the defense of fraud or fraud in the inducement), whether acquired by subrogation, suretyship, assignment or otherwise, to the extent that such rights and defenses may be otherwise available to avoid its payment obligations under this Guaranty.
(d) Guarantor agrees that its guaranty hereunder shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time all or part of any payment of any Obligation is voided, rescinded or recovered or must otherwise be returned by Beneficiary for any reason, and the Guarantor shall remain liable hereunder in respect to such Obligations as if such payment had not been made.
(e) There are no conditions precedent to the enforcement of this Guaranty, and its enforcement is not conditioned on or contingent upon any attempt to enforce in whole or in part any Obligations of Obligor to Beneficiary. Beneficiary may resort to Guarantor for payment of any of the Obligations, whether or not Beneficiary shall have proceeded against any other obligor principally or secondarily obligated with respect to any of the Obligations.
3. Subrogation. Guarantor waives and shall not exercise any rights that it may acquire by way of subrogation, contribution, reimbursement or indemnification for payments made under this Guaranty until all of the Obligations shall have been indefeasibly paid in full. Guarantor hereby subordinates the payment of all indebtedness and other obligations of Obligor or any other guarantor of the Obligations owing to Guarantor, whether now existing or hereafter arising, to the indefeasible payment in full of all of the Obligations. If any amount or other payment is made to or accepted by Guarantor in violation of any of the preceding sentences of this Section, such amount shall be deemed to have been paid to Guarantor



for the benefit of, and held in trust for the benefit of, Beneficiary and shall be paid over to Beneficiary promptly and in the form received (together with any necessary endorsements) so as to be applied to the Obligations, whether matured or unmatured, as may be directed by Beneficiary, but without reducing or affecting in any manner the liability of Guarantor for any unpaid Obligations under this Guaranty.
4. Representations and Warranties. To induce Beneficiary to enter into the Underlying Agreement, Guarantor represents and warrants that: (a) Guarantor is a duly organized and validly existing corporation in good standing under the laws of the jurisdiction of its organization; (b) this Guaranty constitutes Guarantor’s valid and legally binding agreement in accordance with its terms; (c) the execution, delivery and performance of this Guaranty have been duly authorized by all necessary action and will not violate (i) Guarantor's organizational documents, (ii) any law applicable to Guarantor or its property, (iii) any agreement to which Guarantor is a party or by which its properties are bound, or (iv) any order, judgment or decree to which Guarantor or any of its assets may be subject; and (d) Guarantor is currently solvent and will not be rendered insolvent by providing this Guaranty. All of the representations and warranties of Guarantor contained herein (i) shall survive the execution and delivery of this Guaranty, and (ii) shall continue to be effective as of the date made until the Obligations have been indefeasibly paid in full and performed in full, notwithstanding any investigation made at any time by or on behalf of Beneficiary.
5. Notices. All notices, requests, consents, demands and other communications hereunder (each, a Notice”) shall be in writing and delivered to the parties at the addresses set forth herein or to such other address as may be designated by the receiving party in a Notice given in accordance with this section. All Notices shall be delivered by personal delivery, nationally recognized overnight courier, email, or certified or registered mail (return receipt requested, postage prepaid). Except as otherwise provided in this Guaranty, a Notice is effective only (a) with written confirmation of delivery or transmission; (b) upon receipt of the receiving party; and (c) if the party giving the Notice has complied with the requirements of this section.
6. Assignment. This Guaranty shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns; provided, however, that Guarantor may not, without the prior written consent of Beneficiary, assign any of its rights, powers or obligations hereunder. Any attempted assignment in violation of this section shall be null and void.
7. Governing Law; Service of Process. THIS GUARANTY SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED UNDER THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, WITHOUT REFERENCE TO ANY CHOICE OF LAW DOCTRINE. EACH PARTY IRREVOCABLY CONSENTS TO SERVICE OF PROCESS IN THE MANNER PROVIDED FOR NOTICES IN SECTION 5 HEREOF AND AGREES THAT NOTHING HEREIN SHALL AFFECT THE RIGHT OF ANY PARTY HERETO TO SERVE PROCESS IN ANY MANNER PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW.
8. Waiver of Jury Trial. EACH PARTY HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ANY AND ALL RIGHTS TO TRIAL BY JURY WITH RESPECT TO ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS GUARANTY OR ANY OF THE OBLIGATIONS HEREUNDER.
9. Cumulative Rights. Each right, remedy and power hereby granted to Beneficiary or allowed it by applicable law or other agreement shall be cumulative and not exclusive of any other, and may be exercised by Beneficiary at any time or from time to time.





10. Severability. If any provision of this Guaranty is to any extent determined by final decision of a court of competent jurisdiction to be unenforceable, the remainder of this Guaranty shall not be affected thereby, and each provision of this Guaranty shall be valid and enforceable to the fullest extent permitted by law.
11. Termination. Unless the Parties mutually agree in writing to termination of this Guaranty, this Guaranty shall not terminate and shall remain in full effect until all of the Obligations have been indefeasibly paid in full under the Underlying Agreement (the “Term”). Any termination of the Guaranty will not affect Guarantor’s liability for any Obligations arising under the Underlying Agreement in effect or outstanding as of the date of termination.
12. Entire Agreement; Amendments; Headings; Effectiveness. This Guaranty constitutes the sole and entire agreement of Guarantor and Beneficiary with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersedes all previous agreements or understandings, oral or written, with respect to such subject matter. No amendment or waiver of any provision of this Guaranty shall be valid and binding unless it is in writing and signed, in the case of an amendment, by both parties, or in the case of a waiver, by the party against which the waiver is to be effective. Section headings are for convenience of reference only and shall not define, modify, expand or limit any of the terms of this Guaranty. Delivery of this Guaranty by facsimile or in electronic format shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed original of this Guaranty.
