Vast Solar warrants to Advisian that the use by Advisian in accordance with this Agreement of Vast Solar’s Intellectual Property (excluding any Intellectual Property created by Advisian) for the purposes of and to the extent strictly necessary for the supply of the Services in accordance with this Agreement will not infringe the Intellectual Property of a third party. Vast Solar indemnifies Advisian for any claim, expense, loss, damage or cost (including legal costs incurred in defending any such claim on a full indemnity basis) arising from a breach of this warranty.

14.9

Vast Solar grants Advisian a non-exclusive, non-transferable licence to use Vast Solar’s Intellectual Property and the Services IP until the End Date solely for the purpose of, and to the extent strictly necessary for, the supply of the Services in accordance with this Agreement. Advisian must ensure that each use of Vast Solar’s Intellectual Property is in a manner from time to time approved by Vast Solar (including any conditions attached to such consent).

14.10

The parties acknowledge and agree that all goodwill resulting from:

(a)

Advisian’s use of Vast Solar Intellectual Property or the Services IP will accrue solely for the benefit of Vast Solar; and

(b)

Vast Solar’s use of Advisian’s Background Intellectual Property will accrue solely for the benefit of Advisian.

14.11

For the avoidance of doubt, nothing in this Agreement is to be interpreted as restricting the ability of the parties to from time to time enter into a separate agreement in relation to any Intellectual Property connected with the supply of the Services, which will prevail to the extent of any conflict with the terms of this Agreement when it is made clear that this is the parties’ intention.

14.12

Advisian warrants that all employees, agents, sub-contractors or any other person involved in the supply of the Services, have, and during the Term will, provide irrevocable consents and waivers in relation to their Moral Rights to the fullest extent possible under the law of any applicable jurisdiction, sufficient to ensure Vast Solar’s unimpeded use of the Services IP in a manner which may otherwise infringe the Moral Rights of each such employee, agent, sub-contractor or other person involved in the supply of Services. Advisian indemnifies Vast Solar for any claim, expense, direct loss, damage or cost (including legal costs incurred in defending any such claim on a party and party indemnity basis) arising from a breach of this warranty.

15.

CONFIDENTIALITY

15.1

A party (“Receiving Party”) that holds Confidential Information of the other party (“Disclosing Party”) will hold and maintain all Confidential Information in strict confidence and as a trade secret of the other party.

Page 15 of 39

15.2

The Receiving Party may not, without the Disclosing Party’s prior written consent:

(a)

use any Confidential Information of the Disclosing Party except to the extent necessary to perform its obligations and exercise of its rights under this Agreement;

(b)

disclose any Confidential Information of the Disclosing Party (or the fact of the existence of such Confidential Information) to any third party other than to personnel who have a need to know the information in order to perform the obligations of the Receiving Party under this Agreement, and then only to the extent of that need to know; or

(c)

reverse engineer or decompile (or in each case attempt to do so) any of the Confidential Information of the other Disclosing Party,

provided that the Receiving Party may, without such consent, disclose Confidential Information of the Disclosing Party to the extent required by Law, any relevant regulatory body, or the rules of any recognised stock exchange, provided that the Receiving Party notifies the Disclosing Party first (with as much notice as is possible in the circumstances) of the proposed form of the disclosure and reasons therefore.

15.3

The Receiving Party shall effect and maintain adequate security measures to safeguard the Confidential Information of the Disclosing Party from access or use by unauthorised persons and to keep the Confidential Information of the Disclosing Party under the Receiving Party’s control, such measures being at least to the same standard of care as used by the Receiving Party for its own Confidential Information.

15.4

The Receiving Party must ensure that any person to whom it is permitted to disclose, and does disclose any Confidential Information of the Disclosing Party (including any and all of its permitted personnel and independent contractors to whom disclosure is made) observes the requirements of confidentiality set out in this Agreement (as if those requirements applied to them). If any person referred to in this clause 15.4 to whom Confidential Information is disclosed does any act or omission which act or omission would constitute a breach of this Agreement if such act had been done or omission had been made by the Receiving Party, then the doing of such act or making of such omission by that person constitutes a breach of clause 15.4 by the Receiving Party.

15.5

The Receiving Party acknowledges that any disclosure or use of any Confidential Information in breach of this Agreement may cause the Disclosing Party irreparable harm and that monetary damages alone may be an inadequate remedy. The Receiving Party agrees that the Disclosing Party is entitled to seek equitable relief including injunction and specific performance, in addition to all other remedies available to the Disclosing Party at Law or in equity or under this Agreement.

15.6

In the absence of any express written agreement to the contrary between the parties, the Receiving Party’s obligations under this Agreement shall continue in full force and effect until the Confidential Information enters the public domain other than directly or indirectly through the Receiving Party’s default or the default of any of its permitted disclosees under this Agreement.

15.7

If requested at any time by the Disclosing Party, the Receiving Party must:

(a)

promptly return to the Disclosing Party all Confidential Information (including all copies thereof); and

Page 16 of 39

(b)

destroy (and certify such destruction) all copies of and notes made in relation to such Confidential Information of the Disclosing Party

provided that the Receiving Party is also thereby discharged from performing all of its obligations under this Agreement to the extent that such depended on possession of that Confidential Information.

15.8

Clause 15 survives termination or expiry of this Agreement for a period of five (5) years.

16.

CHARGES

Charges: Unless agreed otherwise, the charges payable for the Services shall comprise the hours worked multiplied by the Personnel Rates set out below which:

(a)

are fixed for the Term, subject to the Annual Review Process detailed below;

(b)

are exclusive of GST (unless otherwise expressly stated);

(c)

include all charges and costs payable for the delivery of the Services under the terms of this Agreement;

(d)

include all other costs (including the supply of materials used in or incidental to the supply of the Services), taxes, duties, or other imposts, whether retroactive or not, levied on the Services and arising in or elsewhere on the supply of the Services supplied to Vast Solar.

Personnel Rates: as per the following schedules

The following provisions apply to the Personnel Rates:

Personnel will be assigned to the portfolio of projects using the Worley Personnel Authorisation Approval Form (PAAF) and Process, as adapted for this MSCA. The PAAF shall define the Personnel Category and thus the Rate of payment and other details of the assignment.

Work shall be reimbursed on an hourly-rate basis. The hourly-rates in Schedule One Tables 1, 2 and 3 apply to nationals from Spain, Australia and United States of America respectively and Table 4 applies to the Board Strategic Advisory position:

The hourly-rates apply for those nationals working in their home country - that is country of employment - and for periods of time in other countries; except,

Where, or if, personnel relocate from their home office for an extended term or as otherwise that requires their employment to be altered. Specific rates will be agreed for these cases.

The Spanish hourly-rates apply to the expected high utilisation workload of a team engaged for Basic Engineering and subsequent FEED and Owner’s Engineering and Detail Design phases.

The Australian hourly-rates apply to each of part-time (standard) and full-time utilisation.

Australian standard-rates are for all hours; except,

Australian full-time hour-rates are for all hours by personnel assigned to the project full-time for a minimum tenure of three-months. Note for the purposes of internal administration - particularly revenue recognition - personnel should be assigned in advance to the Australian full-time rates. The PAAF process applies. Where personnel are assigned under full-time rates and subsequently do not meet the utilisation criteria their rate shall automatically and retrospectively revert to the Australian standard hourly-rate.

Page 31 of 39

The American hourly-rates are for all hours.

The Board Strategic Advisory hourly-rates are for all hours.

Personnel nominations for each rate Category are as of the date of execution of the MSCA. Both are subject to change as personnel develop and grow and as new personnel enter the business and portfolio of project. These changes shall be agreed in advance using the PAAF process.

The exchange rates below shall be used to set the exchange baseline for Spanish and American hourly-rates to Australian dollars. The exchange rate shall be adjusted half- yearly on the last day of each half for the succeeding half-yearly period.

Base Exchange rate baselines:

1EUR= 1.68164AUD

ii.

1USD=1.50981AUD

The rates and categories shall be controlled via a master MS Excel spreadsheet that shall be updated by Advisian and reside with Vast Solar.

The rates are subject to yearly increment with an anniversary on 1 July. The increment shall be the Australian Bureau of Statistics Table 24 Index 6923 Engineering design and engineering consultancy services.

10.

The following mark-up will apply to expenses for all administrative cost and profit:

Travel expenses will be at cost-plus 5%;

Other expenses will be at cost-plus 8%;

Subcontractors will be at cost-plus 12%.

11.

Travel will follow the Worley (Advisian) travel policy. International or travel over 5-hours duration shall be as a minimum in Premium Economy.

Page 32 of 39

12.

Advisian standard practice is to charge a standard day of eight hours only, notwithstanding that an effort of greater than eight hours may be expended.

Where team members are required to expend effort more than a standard day over a continued period, and Advisian deem those team members shall be reasonably compensated, the actual time shall be billable and payable to the team member.

Whilst this practice is at the sole discretion of Advisian, Vast Solar shall be consulted and consent to overtime hours being worked as billable hours.

Charge Review Procedures: Vast Solar will have the right to conduct enquiries of the market to ensure the Personnel Rates remain competitive.
