21.4 If Contractor’s non-compliance or breach of its representation, warranty, covenant or other
obligation is of such a serious nature that it jeopardizes the safety of persons or property, poses
a threat to the environment, or results in the suspension of the Services and/or Work, regardless
of whether Contractor was provided with written notice of non-compliance or breach or the
opportunity to remedy such non-compliance or breach as provided in Article 21.3, Company
shall have the right to (a) suspend operations pursuant to Article 44 (Health, Safety and

25.4 In the case of concurrent or contributory fault by or among any of Company Group, any of

settlement or written agreement in accordance with Article 31 (Governing Law and Dispute
Resolution).

CO-0056-2022 Page 21 of 33
documents, property, designs, procedures, methods, programs or processes furnished by any

25.7 It is the specific and expressed intention and agreement of Company and Contractor that all
release, defense, hold harmless and indemnity obligations and liabilities assumed by Company
and Contractor, respectively, under this Contract, unless and to the extent specifically limited,
qualified or otherwise provided for in this Article 25, shall be without limit and shall be without
regard to the amount of insurance carried by the respective Parties under this Contract. If it is
judicially determined, beyond the control of the Parties, that the monetary limits of the release,
defense, hold harmless and indemnity obligations and liabilities voluntarily and mutually
assumed by Company and Contractor under this Contract exceed the maximum limits permitted
under Applicable Law, then the Parties agree that such release, defense, hold harmless and
indemnity agreements shall automatically be amended to conform to the maximum monetary
limits permitted under such Applicable Law.
25.8 Contractor shall only look to Company in respect of Company’s obligations, liabilities and
responsibilities under this Contract, and Contractor hereby waives any claims, of any nature
whatsoever, Contractor may have against any member of Company Group (other than the
Company) now or in the future, related to or associated with the obligations, responsibilities
and liabilities agreed to be undertaken by Company under this Contract.
25.9 Neither Party shall, without written authorization of the other Party, voluntarily assume any
liability or make any settlement of any claim for which the other Party may be liable thereunder.
25.10 A Party entitled to indemnification hereunder (the “Indemnified Party”) shall give prompt
written notice to the Party who has given the indemnity (the “Indemnifier”) of any Claims and
Losses, (including full details of such Claims and Losses) that arise from or are related to this
Contract (the “Indemnification Claim”).
25.11 To the extent the Indemnification Claim relates to any Claims and Losses of a Third Party, then:
(i) the Indemnifier shall have the right at the Indemnifier’s expense, and the Indemnified
Party gives the Indemnifier the right, to defend against, negotiate, settle or otherwise deal
with the Indemnification Claim; and
(ii) the Indemnified Party shall not make any admissions of liability or compromise any
Indemnified Claim without the prior written consent of the Indemnifier.
25.12 The Indemnified Party shall further:
(i) assist the Indemnifier in any proceedings and give it access to premises, officers and
employees and documents for the purposes of defending the Indemnification Claim; and
(ii) take any action reasonably required by the Indemnifier to avoid, dispute, compromise or
defend the Indemnification Claim.
25.13 If a Party (i) is required to pay any Tax upon receipt of an indemnity payment, or (ii) is allowed
any Tax deduction in respect of the items of loss giving rise to an indemnification obligation,
then the amount of the indemnity payment shall be adjusted such that the Indemnified Party is
put in the same position it would have been in if such payment had not been required or such
deduction had not been allowed, as the case may be. Any indemnified cost incurred by a Party
in a currency other than BHD shall be converted into BHD at the open market exchange rate
applicable on the date such costs were incurred by that Party.
25.14 For any Claims and Losses incurred by Company and in respect of which Company is entitled
to indemnification under this Contract (including without limitation those set out in this Article
25), Contractor shall reimburse Company on demand by Company of same.
25.15 The indemnities in this Contract (including without limitation, those set out in this Article 25)
are private contractual arrangements, enforceable between Company and Contractor without
regard to the terms of any duty either may owe to any Third Party, including any Governmental
Entity under Applicable Law.

CO-0056-2022 Page 22 of 33
26. Insurance
26.1 Throughout the Term of this Contract, Contractor shall obtain insurance coverages that
Contractor believes are appropriate under the circumstances or Contractor and Contractor
Group to perform the Services and/or Work hereunder. Without limiting the generality of the
foregoing, Contractor shall secure and maintain, at its sole cost and expense and with reputable
carriers, at least the minimum insurance coverages described in Exhibit D, with underwriters
and on policies acceptable to Company (each individually a “Policy” or collectively the
“Policies”); provided, however, that the minimum limits set forth in Exhibit D or the coverage
amounts of such Policies actually maintained by Contractor (or any lack thereof), shall in no
way be deemed to be a limitation of Contractor’s liability under this Contract.
26.2 Contractor’s Policies shall be primary to any other insurance that may be available to Company
in all circumstances, but only with respect to and to the extent of the liabilities and obligations
agreed to be assumed by Contractor under this Contract.
26.3 Contractor shall require each of its subcontractors of any tier to secure and maintain such
insurance coverages and amounts thereof that Contractor considers necessary; provided,
however, that the existence of, non-existence of or any deficiency in such coverages, amounts
or policy limits shall be the responsibility of and the resulting liability shall be for the account
of, Contractor.
26.4 Upon execution of this Contract (and as a condition precedent to any payment by Company to
Contractor) Contractor shall provide to Company certificates of insurance confirming that all
of the required insurance coverages are in full force and effect, and in any event no later than
thirty (30) Days from such date. A failure by Contractor to provide such certificates of insurance
within the time period specified herein shall entitle Company to withhold payment of any
invoice.
26.5 At any time during the Term, Company shall be entitled to request and Contractor shall provide,
further evidence (whether by sight of the certificates of insurance or otherwise as determined
by Company) that the required insurance coverages are in full force and effect. Further,
Contractor shall provide Company with at least thirty (30) Days’ advance written notice of any
cancellation of or material change in the required insurance.
26.6 Unless prohibited by Applicable Law, neither Contractor nor its underwriters, insurers or
insurance carriers shall have any claims or rights of subrogation against Company Group or
Company’s underwriters, insurers or insurance carriers, including their respective property, for
the risks, obligations and liabilities agreed to be assumed by Contractor under this Contract,
and such claims or rights of subrogation with respect thereto and to the extent thereof are hereby
waived by Contractor, on its behalf and on behalf of its respective underwriters, insurers and
insurance carriers. Contractor shall defend and indemnify Company Group from and against
any such claims.
26.7 Except for Worker’s Compensation and Employer’s Liability Insurance (as described in Exhibit
D), all of Contractor’s Policies shall include Company Group as an “additional insured”, but
only with respect to and to the extent of the liabilities and obligations agreed to be assumed by
Contractor under this Contract. All Policies shall be suitably and adequately endorsed to
effectuate the aforementioned waiver of subrogation.

a. to any member of Contractor Group who has a clear need to know such Confidential

recognized stock exchange on which the securities of Contractor or any of its Affiliates

provided, however, Contractor gives prompt written notice to Company prior to such
disclosure to allow Company to seek a protective order against, or to limit the scope of,
such disclosure; and provided, further, that if Company fails to obtain or does not seek a

shall be construed and enforced in accordance with, and the rights of the Parties hereunder shall
be governed by, the laws of England.

CO-0056-2022 Page 26 of 33
31.2 Any dispute, controversy, or claim arising out of or relating to this Contract, including any
provision of any Exhibit attached hereto, or the breach, termination, construction, interpretation
or validity thereof (in each event, a “Dispute”) shall, upon the written request (“Request”) of
any Party, be referred to the Senior Officers of each Party for resolution. The Senior Officers
shall meet promptly and attempt to negotiate a resolution of the Dispute.
31.3 Any Dispute not resolved through negotiation within thirty (30) Days after receipt of a Request
by a Party shall be finally settled by arbitration in accordance with the Rules of Arbitration of
the Bahrain Chamber of Dispute Resolution (BCDR-AAA) then in effect, except as modified
in this Article 31 (the “Rules”). The arbitration shall be held, and the award shall be rendered,
in the English language in Manama, Kingdom of Bahrain.
31.4 There shall be three (3) arbitrators: the claimant and the respondent shall each select one (1) in
accordance with the Rules, and the two (2) named arbitrators shall nominate the third arbitrator
in accordance with the Rules. If any such arbitrator has not been named within the time limits
specified in the Rules, such appointment shall be made by the BCDR-AAA upon the written
request of any Party.
31.5 Each Party hereby waives any rights of application or appeal to any court or tribunal of
competent jurisdiction, to the fullest extent permitted by Applicable Law, in connection with
any question of law arising during the arbitration or with respect to any award made. Without
limiting the foregoing, by agreeing to arbitrate any Dispute, the Parties do not intend to deprive
any court of its jurisdiction to issue a pre-arbitral injunction, pre-arbitral attachment or other
order, in any case, in aid of arbitration proceedings or the enforcement of any award. Without
prejudice to such provisional remedies, the arbitral tribunal shall have full authority to grant
provisional remedies and to award damages for the failure of any Party to comply with its
orders. The arbitral tribunal shall also have the authority to award any remedy or relief proposed
by the claimant or respondent pursuant to this Contract, including declaratory judgment or
specific performance of any obligation created under this Contract.
31.6 The arbitral award shall be final and binding upon the Parties, and shall be the sole and exclusive
remedy between the Parties regarding any Dispute. Any monetary award shall be made and
promptly payable in Dinars free of any tax, deduction or offset, and the arbitral tribunal shall
be authorized in its discretion to grant pre-award and post-award interest at commercially
reasonable rates. Any costs, fees, or taxes incident to enforcing the award shall, to the
maximum extent permitted by law, be charged against the Party resisting such enforcement.
Judgment upon any award may be entered in any court having jurisdiction thereof, and shall be
governed by the United Nations Convention on the Recognition and Enforcement of Foreign
Arbitral Awards of 10 June 1958.
31.7 The arbitration agreement set forth in this Article 31 shall be binding upon the Parties, their
successors and permitted assigns, and the rights and obligations of the Parties shall remain in
full force and effect pending the enforcement of any award in any arbitration proceeding
hereunder, notwithstanding termination, for any reason, of this Contract.
31.8 Contractor acknowledges and agrees that the activities contemplated by this Contract are
commercial in nature rather than governmental or public. To the extent that Contractor
(including the assignees and/or transferees of its rights and/or obligations under this Contract)
or its shareholders or its ultimate parent company or an entity acting on behalf of Contractor
may be entitled, in any jurisdiction, to claim for Contractor or Contractor’s revenues, assets or
properties, sovereign immunity from service of process, from suit, from the jurisdiction of any
court or arbitral tribunal, from attachment prior to judgment, from attachment in aid of
execution or enforcement of an arbitral award or judgment (interlocutory or final), or from any
other legal process, and to the extent that in any such jurisdiction there may be attributed such
a sovereign immunity (whether claimed or not), Contractor on its own behalf and on behalf of
such shareholders, assignees, ultimate parent company or any other Person or entity that may
claim such sovereign immunity on behalf of Contractor, hereby irrevocably agrees not to claim,
and hereby irrevocably waives, such sovereign immunity, solely as it relates to any Dispute
hereunder.

CO-0056-2022 Page 27 of 33
32. Parties in Interest
32.1 This Contract shall be binding on and inure solely to the benefit of each Party hereto and its
successors and permitted assigns, and nothing in this Contract, express or implied, is intended
to or shall confer upon any other Person any right, benefit or remedy of any nature whatsoever.
32.2 The Contracts (Rights of Third Parties) Act 1999 shall not apply to this Contract, and nothing
contained in this Contract is intended to confer on any Person any right to enforce a term
contained in this Contract; provided, that the foregoing shall in no way prejudice the right of
any Party to enforce any terms hereof on behalf of itself or any member of Company Group or
Contractor Group (as applicable). For the avoidance of doubt, in respect of any of the terms,
obligations or indemnities in this Contract that are expressed to be for the benefit of a Party or
its respective Group, the Party shall be acting for itself in connection with such term, obligation
or indemnity and as agent and trustee for its respective Group.

33. Taxes
33.1 Contractor shall be solely responsible for the ascertainment of, timely filing of returns for, and
prompt payment of Contractor Taxes. The rates, fees and other Compensation set forth in
Exhibit B shall be deemed to include sufficient provision for, and thereby cover, all of
Contractor Taxes excluding value-added tax as provided in Article 33.7.
33.2 Contractor shall be responsible for the translation and filing of this Contract with all applicable
Governmental Entities, including any stamp Tax Authority, to the extent required by and in

Company with a written confirmation from the Tax Authority in the Kingdom of Bahrain
evidencing Contractor’s registration for Tax purposes in the Kingdom of Bahrain, if applicable.
33.4 Should any action of whatever Tax Authority or Applicable Law require withholding of any of
Contractor Taxes from payments to Contractor, Company shall deduct such amounts to be
withheld from the payment due to Contractor and shall remit the amount withheld to the proper
Tax Authority, unless Contractor demonstrates to the satisfaction of Company exemption from
such withholding. Any amounts withheld by Company shall be deemed part of the
compensation paid to Contractor. Contractor shall complete, sign and return to Company any
