complete the Deliveries of LSFO received into HECO’s tankage at Waiau and Iwilei via Chevron’s Black Oil Pipeline. The price of No. 2 diesel fuel or No. 6 fuel oil used as Line Displacement Stock shall be the then-current pricing for the fuel comprising the Line Displacement Stock in that certain separate agreement between Chevron and HECO and its affiliated companies of even date herewith, known as the Inter-Island Industrial Fuel Oil and Diesel Fuel Contract (“Inter-Island Supply Contract”), if such a supply contract is in effect; otherwise its price shall be the then-current Honolulu posted price for such fuel, less normally available discounts, if any, at the time of purchase. The price of No. 5 fuel oil used as Line Displacement Stock shall be the [__________________________________________________________________________________________] in the Inter-Island Supply Contract, if such a supply contract is in effect; otherwise its price shall be the then-current Honolulu posted price for No. 5 fuel oil, less normally available discounts, if any, at the time of purchase.

HECO shall make payment for such corrected invoice or debit in accordance with Section 10.3.

 

If Chevron’s or HECO’s final laboratory result for BTU content is unavailable or if Chevron’s laboratory result is disputed by HECO, Chevron may issue a provisional invoice pursuant to Section 7.2. HECO shall in such case make payment for such provisional invoice in accordance with the provisions of Section 10.3.

ADDENDUM NO. 3

Recovery of [_____________________________] For Oil Pollution Liability Insurance

 

The price formula for LSFO in Section 5.1 of the Contract includes the component [________] that refers to a [_______________

 

________________________________________________________________________________________________________

________________________________________________________________________________________________________

_________________________________________] which incorporates a [__________________] to reflect the cost of additional premium for full $ 1 Billion coverage for Oil Pollution Liability Insurance on vessels carrying “Persistent Oils” (a cargo category which would include any grade of fuel oil, most fuel oil blending components as well as most types of crude oil) applicable to voyages having a destination in the U.S.A. Chevron acknowledges that any vessel used to transport LSFO that is sold and purchased under the Contract, including its components and the crude oil from which the LSFO is derived, shall be required to possess oil pollution liability insurance coverage in the maximum amount commercially available, $ 1 Billion as of the execution of this Contract.

 

The price formula component [_________] refers to an [____] rate applicable to [_________________________________________ _________________________________________________________________________________________________________

________________________________________________________________________________________________________

________________________________________] In order to derive an approximation of the relationship between Deadweight and Gross Registered Tons (“GT”), the design characteristic of tankers against which marine insurance, including oil pollution liability insurance, is levied, for a nominal vessel consistent with the mathematical average of this vessel size classification, [________________________________________________________________________________________________________ _________________________________________________________________________] These vessels are described as follows:

The [—————————] that is to be included in the computation of [___________] is to be derived in the same manner as the following illustrative example calculations:

 

1. The [_________________________] in effect from February 20, 2003 (see note #1 at end), shall include a [__________________] for SBT (Segregated Ballast Tank equipped) Tankers, which shall be computed as follows:

[_________________________] with respect to the additional insurance premiums for oil pollution liability insurance coverage in the maximum amount commercially available, $ 1 billion as of the execution of this Contract, on vessels carrying persistent oils to and from the U.S.A is defined as follows:

 

[________________________________________________________________]

[___________]

= [_____________________]

 

For illustrative purposes, this rate may be expressed in U.S. dollars per barrel as follows:

=                            [___________]

                    [______________]

=     [_____________________]

 

2. The [__________________________________________________] applicable for each [__________________] are based upon an [—————————————————————————————] in the calendar quarter immediately preceding the calendar quarter of the Nominated Month of Delivery. Therefore the relevant [____________________________] computed above should be applied (to a Year of 365 Days) as follows:

 

  A. With respect to volumes of LSFO [_____________________________________________] following a change in the published rate (typically February 20 of each Year); the relevant [_____________________________] to be included in the computation of the price component [__________] shall be the sum of:

 

50/90 multiplied by the [______________] computed prior to the rate change:

 

and 40/90 multiplied by the [_________________] computed using the revised rate:

 

  B. With respect to volumes of LSFO [_____________________] and continuing for so long as the [___________________] as set forth in [____________________________________] shall be applicable, the relevant [_________________________] to be included in the computation of the price component [__________________] shall be as derived in part 1 above.

Note (1): [________________________] are revised and applicable for each calendar year, however the value of the [____________________] that pertains to the cost of oil pollution liability insurance is revised in accordance with the Protection & Indemnity Club (mutual marine insurance organizations) premium year, generally February 20 through February 19 of the following year. Reference [________________________] for the [___________________________] in effect from February 20, 2003 onwards and applicable to the determination of the September 2003 LSFO price.
