Section 4.2  Expansion of Fresh Water System; Connection of Well Pads.

(a)The Fresh Water System shall be designed, developed, and constructed for the purpose of providing sufficient quantities of Fresh Water to the High-Rate Transfer Facilities at each Well Pad at a sufficient rate of flow to enable Antero Water to transfer such Fresh Water through the High-Rate Transfer Facilities to the Fresh Water Delivery Points at the applicable Fresh Water Delivery Rate as and when needed for hydraulic fracturing operations on such Well Pad, and Antero Water shall be obligated, at its sole cost and expense, subject to the provisions of this Agreement, to plan, procure, construct, install, own, and operate the Fresh Water System so as to timely extend the Fresh Water System to each Well Pad and timely deliver such quantities of Fresh Water to each Well Pad so as to permit the full scope of Fresh Water Services to be  provided with respect to all the Planned Wells in accordance with this Section 4.2;  provided, that the foregoing shall not preclude Antero Water from also designing, developing and constituting the Fresh Water System for the provision of services to third parties.

(b)Antero Water shall be obligated to extend the Fresh Water System to a particular Well Pad only if Antero Water has received from Producer a notice in the form of Exhibit F hereto (or in such form as Producer and Antero Water shall otherwise agree from time to time) stating that Producer intends to drill, complete, and carry out hydraulic fracturing operations on such Wells at such Well Pad (a “Connection Notice”) and setting forth the target date for the commencement of hydraulic fracturing operations (the “Target Commencement Date”) at such Well Pad and the Fresh Water Delivery Rate for the Fresh Water Delivery Point at such Well Pad.  Following receipt of a Connection Notice, Antero Water shall cause the necessary facilities to be constructed to connect the Fresh Water System to such Well Pads and to deliver and install at such Well Pads the necessary High-Rate Transfer Facilities, such that the Fresh Water Services can be commenced when hydraulic fracturing operations are ready to be commenced at such Well Pad.  Such facilities shall be able to make Fresh Water available to such Planned Well Pad as soon as reasonably practicable following the Connection Notice and in any event on or before the later to occur of (1) the Target Commencement Date with respect to such Planned Well Pad, (2) the date that is 180 Days after the Connection Notice, (3) for any Well Pad located in the Initial Service Area but in any area outside the area described in Exhibit A as the “core area”, the date specified for such area in Exhibit A,  (4) for any Well Pad located outside the Initial Service Area, the date that is 18 months after the area in which such Well  Pad is located became part of the Service Area, and (5) the date on which the initial Planned Well(s) at such Planned Well Pad has reached its

17


 

 

projected depth and is ready for completion and hydraulic fracturing operations (the later of such dates, with respect to such Planned Well Pad, as it may be adjusted in accordance with this Agreement, the “Completion Deadline”).  Antero Water shall provide Producer notice promptly upon Antero Water’s becoming aware of any reason to believe that it may not be able to connect a Planned Well Pad to the Fresh Water System by the Target Commencement Date therefor or to otherwise complete all facilities necessary to provide the full scope of Fresh Water Services with respect to the Fresh Water Delivery Points at such Planned Well Pad by the Target Commencement Date therefor.  If and to the extent Antero Water is delayed in completing and making available such facilities by a Force Majeure event or any action of Producer that is inconsistent with the cooperation requirements of Section 4.7, then the Completion Deadline for such connection shall be extended for a period of time equal to the period during which Antero Water’s completion and making available of such facilities was delayed by such events or actions.  If Antero Water fails to extend the Fresh Water System to a Well Pad by the Completion Date for such Well Pad, and if Antero Water fails to deliver sufficient volumes of Fresh Water to such Well Pad, by truck or otherwise, to enable Fresh Water to be delivered to the Fresh Water Delivery Points through the High-Rate Transfer Facilities at the Fresh Water Delivery Rate, by the Completion Date, then, as Producer’s sole and exclusive remedies for such delay,

(i)if Antero Water notifies Producer that the required volumes of Fresh Water are available at a System Retention Facility, Producer shall have the right to pick up such volumes of Fresh Water at such System Retention Facility and truck it to the  inlet to the High Rate Transfer Facilities at or in the vicinity of the Well Pad, in which case the Producer’s actual cost of trucking such Fresh Water to such location shall be deducted from the Delivery Point Fee or the Cost of Service Fee, as applicable, or, if applicable, Producer shall be entitled to recover from Antero Water the excess, if any, of its third party and internal costs of trucking such Fresh Water to such location over the Delivery Point Fee or the Cost of Service Fee, as applicable, that it would have been obligated to pay Antero Water for the same volumes of Fresh Water; or 

(ii)if the required volumes of Fresh Water are not available at a System Retention Facility as provided in clause (i) above, Producer shall have the right to obtain Fresh Water from sources other than Antero Water for hydraulic fracturing operations at such Well Pad and truck such Fresh Water to such Well Pad until such time as such Well Pad is connected to the Fresh Water System and the Fresh Water System is ready to make available Fresh Water at such Well Pad in sufficient quantity for the commencement of the Fresh Water Services with respect thereto, in which case Producer shall be entitled to recover from Antero Water the excess, if any, of its third party and internal costs of obtaining such Fresh Water and trucking such Fresh Water to such Well Pad over the Delivery Point Fee or the Cost of Service Fee, as applicable, that it would have been obligated to pay Antero Water for the same volumes of Fresh Water; or    

(iii)Producer shall have the right to complete the procurement, construction and/or installation (including through one or more subcontractors) of any rights or facilities necessary to connect the relevant Planned Well Pad to the Fresh Water System and to permit Fresh Water to be made available at such Well Pad at the applicable Fresh Water Delivery Rate, in which case Antero Water shall pay, within 30 days after presentment of an invoice therefor, to Producer an amount equal to 115% of all reasonable

18


 

 

out of pocket costs and expenses incurred by Producer in so procuring, constructing, and/or installing such rights and facilities, and upon receipt of payment by Producer therefor, Producer shall convey all such rights and facilities owned or under the control of Producer to Antero Water (and shall use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain any applicable consents triggered by such assignment) and such rights and facilities shall thereafter be part of the Fresh Water System. 

The remedies set forth in clauses (i), (ii) and (iii) above shall be applicable to Wells with Completion Deadlines that are 180 Days or more after the Effective Date. Once a Well Pad is connected to the Fresh Water System, Antero Water shall maintain such connection until such time as Producer has advised Antero Water that all hydraulic fracturing operations have been completed on all Planned Wells at such Well Pad; provided that Antero Water shall have the right to remove and re-lay temporary surface water lines from time to time as long as no delay or disruption in Producer’s hydraulic fracturing operations results therefrom.

(c)If the actual commencement of hydraulic fracturing operations at a particular Well Pad is delayed through no fault of Antero Water more than 30 Days after the Target Commencement Date for such Well Pad and the Fresh Water System is connected to the Fresh Water Delivery Point at such Well Pad and available to commence providing Fresh Water to such Well Pad prior to the date such initial Planned Well is ready for hydraulic fracturing, Antero Water shall be entitled to a fee equal to interest per annum at the Wall Street Journal prime rate on the incremental cost and expense incurred by Antero Water to procure, construct and install the relevant rights and facilities to connect to such Well Pad and to cause such facilities to be available to commence providing Fresh Water thereto for the number of Days after the Target Commencement Date until the Day that hydraulic fracturing of the first Well at such Well Pad has commenced; provided, however, that if hydraulic fracturing of such Well has not commenced by the date that is six months after the Target Commencement Date for such Well through no fault of Antero Water or, as of an earlier date, Producer notifies Antero Water that it has elected not to fracture any Planned Wells at such Planned Well Pad, Producer shall pay, within 30 days after presentment of an invoice therefor, to Antero Water an amount equal to 115% of all reasonable incremental costs and expenses incurred by Antero Water in procuring, constructing and installing such rights and facilities to connect the Fresh Water System to such Planned Well Pad and to cause such facilities to be available to commence providing Fresh Water thereto, and Antero Water shall (i) assign, transfer, and deliver to Producer all rights and facilities (including equipment, materials, work in progress, and completed construction) the costs and expenses of which have so been paid by Producer, to Producer, and (ii) use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain any applicable consents triggered by such assignment.  If Producer so pays Antero Water and later completes a Well at such Well Pad which it desires to hydraulically fracture, or if such facilities are later used to connect and hydraulically fracture a Well at a different Planned Well Pad or for a third party, Antero Water shall promptly refund to Producer such amount paid by Producer, and Producer shall upon receipt of payment therefor retransfer such rights and facilities to Antero Water (and shall use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain any applicable consents triggered by such assignment).

(b)Except as further provided in this Section 7.1(b) with respect to the disposal agreements and treatment agreements described in Exhibit I (the “Assumed Subcontracts”), Reimbursable Waste Water Services Costs will not include any costs incurred by Antero Water in respect of capacity reservations (however described, including minimum volume commitments, deliver-or-pay provisions, or similar provisions, and whether such reservations shall appear in disposal agreements, treatment agreements, trucking agreements, or other third party agreements) except that portion of those costs proportionately allocable to capacity actually utilized by Antero Water in the performance of Waste Water Services, it being understood that, except for its commitment under Section 2.1, Producer makes no commitment to provide any specific volumes of Waste Water during any period and any arrangements made by Antero Water for reserving capacity are made at Antero Water’s sole risk.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, Reimbursable Waste Water Services Costs will include the reservation charges under the Assumed Subcontracts for the periods set forth in Exhibit I, to the extent actually incurred by Antero Water, provided that Antero Water shall, to the extent within its or its Affiliates’ control, deliver Waste Water collected by Antero Water hereunder to facilities under the Assumed Subcontracts in a manner so as to minimize the amount of such reservation charges actually incurred for volumes in excess of volumes actually delivered. 

(c)The Treatment Facility Fee described in Section 7.1(a)(v) assumes that the Treatment Facility will have an on-site landfill owned by Antero Treatment or one of its Affiliates at which all by-products of the treatment of Waste Water at the Treatment Facility will be disposed of.  If for any reason Antero Treatment is unable to dispose of such by-products at such landfill during any period (including as a result of any delay in Antero Treatment’s construction of such landfill or any inability of Antero Treatment to maintain required Governmental Approvals for such landfill) and such by-products must be disposed of at a third-party landfill, then the Treatment Facility Fee applicable during such period shall be reduced by (i) during any period in which none of such by-products are disposed of at such landfill, $0.10 (as increased or decreased pursuant to Section 7.1(f), the “Landfill Credit”), or (ii) during any period in which some, but not all, such by-products are disposed of in such landfill, a pro-rata portion of the Landfill Credit, based on the quantity (in tons) of such by-products that are not disposed of at such landfill as a proportion of the total quantity (in tons) of such by-products disposed of during such period at such landfill and all third party landfills.  During any such period, the Producer shall pay to Antero Water, in addition to the remainder of the Treatment Facility Fee after deduction of the Landfill Credit or applicable portion thereof, an amount equal to the sum of (A) all third party out-of-pocket costs actually incurred by Antero Water in disposing of such by-products at third-party landfills, including transportation and landfill fees (“Reimbursable Landfill Costs”), plus (B) 3% of the amount of such costs.

(d)The Treatment Facility Fee assumes that Antero Treatment’s cost of treating Waste Water at the Treatment Facility includes (i) $0.35 per Barrel for electricity (as increased or decreased pursuant to Section 7.1(f), the “Electricity Baseline”), (ii) $0.32 per Barrel for chemicals

26


 

 

(as increased or decreased pursuant to Section 7.1(f), the “Chemicals Baseline”), and (iii) $0.55 per Barrel for Gas used as fuel (“Fuel Gas”) (as increased or decreased pursuant to Section 7.1(f), the “Gas  Baseline”).  If during any Month the costs actually incurred by Antero Treatment for electricity and/or chemicals per Barrel of waste water processed at the Treatment Facility during such Month exceed 120% of the Electricity Baseline or the Chemicals Baseline, as applicable, then Antero Water shall be entitled to a supplement to the Treatment Facility Fee for such Month equal to the product of (1) the aggregate volume of Waste Water, stated in Barrels, collected or received by Antero Water hereunder and processed at the Treatment Facility multiplied by (2) the excess of the actual per-Barrel cost for electricity and/or chemicals, as applicable, over the Electricity Baseline and/or the Chemicals Baseline, as applicable.  If during any Month the costs actually incurred by Antero Treatment for Fuel Gas per Barrel of waste water processed at the Treatment Facility during such Month exceed 107.5% of the Gas Baseline, then Antero Water shall be entitled to a supplement to the Treatment Facility Fee for such Month equal to the product of (I) the aggregate volume of Waste Water, stated in Barrels, collected or received by Antero Water hereunder and processed at the Treatment Facility multiplied by (II) the excess of the actual per-Barrel cost for Fuel Gas over the Gas Baseline.  The supplements to the Treatment Facility Fee provided for in this Section 7.1(d) are herein referred to as the “Treatment Facility Fee Supplement”.    

(e)The Waste Water Trucking Fee assumes a cost of truck or vehicle fuel of $3.50 per gallon (the “Truck Fuel Baseline” and together with the Electricity Baseline, the Chemicals Baseline, and the Gas Baseline, each a “Baseline Component”).  If during any Month Antero Water’s actual cost per gallon for such fuel exceeds 107.5% of the Truck Fuel Baseline, then Antero Water shall be entitled to a supplement to the Waste Water Trucking Fee for such Month equal to the product of (i) the number of gallons of such fuel consumed in the performance of the Waste Water Services covered by the Waste Water Trucking Fee multiplied by (ii) the excess of Antero Water’s actual cost per gallon over the Truck Fuel Baseline (the “Waste Water Trucking Fee Supplement”).

(f)After each of the first five (5) Contract Years, one hundred percent (100%), and after the sixth (6th) Contract Year and each Contract Year thereafter, fifty-five percent (55%) of the Delivery Point Fee, the Trucked Fresh Water Fee, the Treatment Facility Fee, the Waste Water Trucking Fee, any Specified Fee, the Landfill Credit, and each Baseline Component shall be adjusted up or down on an annual basis in proportion to the percentage change, from the preceding year, in the All Items Consumer Price Index for All Urban Consumers (CPI-U) for the U.S. City Average, 1982-84 = 100, as published by the United States Department of Labor, Bureau of Labor Statistics (“CPI”).  Such adjustment shall be made effective upon the first Day of each Contract Year commencing in the Contract Year beginning in 2016, and shall reflect the percentage change in the CPI as it existed for June of the preceding Contract Year from the CPI for the second immediately preceding June; provided, however, that the Delivery Point Fee, the Trucked Fresh Water Fee, the Treatment Facility Fee, the Waste Water Trucking Fee, any Specified Fee, the Landfill Credit, and each Baseline Component shall never be less than the initial amounts stated in Section 7.1(a),  Section 7.1(c),  Section 7.1(d), or Section 7.1(e), or as applicable; nor shall such amounts be increased or decreased by more than 3% in any given Contract Year.

27


 

 

(g)To the extent that Antero Water is entitled under this Section 7.1 to reimbursement for the cost of third-party services or other third-party items incurred in carrying out the Fluid Handling Services, Antero Water shall ensure that the reimbursed costs are commensurate with market costs for such services or items and shall, except in the case of emergency situations where to do so is not reasonably practicable, ensure that all such services and items are obtained through competitive bid processes.

(h)If Antero Water desires to perform any Waste Water Services (other than the Waste Water Services covered by the fees set forth in Section 7.1(a)(v) or Section 7.1(a)(vi)) or the Fresh Water Services covered by the fee set forth in Section 7.1(a)(iii) in each case directly using its own facilities and personnel, it may do so, subject to the provisions of this Section 7.1(h).  Antero Water may elect to perform such Fluid Handling Services in accordance with the terms of this Agreement for the Cost of Service Fee in accordance with Section 7.1(j) (to the extent permitted under Section 7.1(j)); provided, however, that if Antero Water so elects with respect to any Waste Water disposal services, the Parties shall enter into a separate agreement covering only such disposal services and containing market standard provisions for the performance of such disposal services and providing for the Cost of Service Fee to be paid for such disposal services. Alternatively, Antero Water may, by notice to Producer, propose specific fees under this Section 7.1(h) (each, a “Specified Fee”) for any such Fluid Handling Services to be performed directly by Antero Water, with such scope (including geographical scope) as shall be defined in such notice.  Producer shall have the right, to be exercised by notice to Antero Water on or before the 30th day after delivery of Antero Water’s proposal notice, to either (i) accept such proposal or (ii) notify Antero Water that it intends to seek fee quotes from third parties for the performance of such Fluid Handling Services.  If Producer fails to timely deliver such notice, it shall be deemed to have accepted such proposal.  If Producer accepts or is deemed to have accepted such proposal, then the Specified Fee proposed by Antero Water shall become effective with respect to the applicable Fluid Handling Services and Antero Water shall perform such Fluid Handling Services in accordance with this Agreement; provided, however, that if such Fluid Handling Services include disposal services, the Parties shall also enter into a separate agreement covering only such disposal services containing market standard provisions for the performance of such disposal services and providing for the Specified Fees in Antero Water’s proposal to be applicable to such disposal services. If Producer timely delivers notice that it intends to seek fee quotes from third parties, it shall have a period of 30 days after the delivery of such notice to Antero Water to obtain such third party quotes.  If Producer desires to accept any such third party quote and enter into a contract with such third party to perform such Fluid Handling Services for the quoted fees, it shall first deliver notice to Antero Water, including a copy of such fee quote and a description of such Fluid Handling Services covered by such quote.  Antero Water shall have the right, to be exercised by notice to Producer on or before the 10th day after delivery of such notice to Antero Water, to perform any such Fluid Handling Services for the quoted fees.  If Antero Water timely delivers such notice, then Antero Water shall perform such Fluid Handling Services in accordance with this Agreement, and the quoted fees shall be deemed to be the Specified Fee for the applicable Fluid Handling Services; provided, however, that if such Fluid Handling Services include Waste Water disposal, the Parties shall enter into a separate agreement covering only such disposal services containing market standard provisions for the performance of such disposal services and providing for the quoted fees, which shall thereafter be deemed to be Specified Fees for purposes of this Agreement.  If Antero Water fails to timely deliver such notice, Producer shall be entitled to enter into a contract with such third party covering such Fluid Handling Services, but the scope of such Fluid Handling

28


 

 

Services shall not exceed the scope set forth in the third party quote provided to Antero Water by Producer, and the fees shall not be greater than the fee quote provided to Antero Water.  If Producer does not deliver notice of any third party quotes to Antero Water on or before the end of the 30-day period referenced above, Producer shall be deemed to have accepted Antero Water’s initial proposal.          

(i)At the request of Antero Water, the Parties will reasonably cooperate and work together in good faith to agree on revised distance-based waste water trucking fees that would provide the same overall economics to Antero Water as the Waste Water Trucking Fee provided for in this Agreement as of the date hereof.

(j)Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 7.1 or any other provision to the contrary in this Agreement, Antero Water shall have the right to elect to be paid for some or all Fluid Handling Services on a cost of service basis to the extent set forth in this Section 7.1(j). Antero Water shall have the right to elect to be paid on a cost of service basis for (i) any Fluid Handling Services performed with respect to Wells on Service Area Properties outside the Initial Service Area (other than the Fluid Handling Services covered by the fees set forth in Section 7.1(a)(v)) and (ii) for any Waste Water Services, other than the Waste Water Services covered by the fees set forth in Section 7.1(a)(v) or Section 7.1(a)(vi), to be performed by Antero Water directly using its own facilities and personnel, whether or not within the Initial Service Area (with all other Fluid Handling Services to be performed for the fees set forth in Section 7.1(a)).  With respect to such Fluid Handling Services, Antero Water may elect, by notice to Producer at least three (3) Months prior to the commencement of any Contract Year or, in the case of any water facilities acquired by Antero Water pursuant to Section 2.4(a), in the notice given by Antero Water in accordance with such Section that Antero Water will acquire such water facilities, to be paid on a cost of service basis for the Fluid Handling Services specified in such notice commencing at the beginning of such Contract Year or with the acquisition of such facilities, as applicable, and continuing for the remaining term of this Agreement, but only with respect to the facilities so acquired or discrete parts of the Water Facilities (each, a “CS Facility”) that are placed into service or acquired during such Contract Year or a later Contract Year, as applicable.  The Fluid Handling Services specified in such notice may be of any scope determined by Antero Water in its sole discretion and may include all eligible Fluid Handling Services or any part thereof and may include, by way of example only, making Fresh Water available at a particular Well Pad or group of Well Pads, collecting Attributable Produced Water from any Produced Water Receipt Points, providing additional System Retention Facilities or System Pumping Facilities, connecting additional Take Points or other sources of Fresh Water, providing trucking services with respect to any Produced Water Receipt Points, providing any Waste Water treatment or disposal services, and any other subset of the Fluid Handling Services determined by Antero Water, in each case subject to the foregoing sentence.  All Fluid Handling Services provided from time to time on a cost of service basis shall be bundled together for purposes of calculating a single Monthly cost of service fee (the “Cost of Service Fee”), which shall be calculated with respect to each Contract Year as set forth in Exhibit H attached hereto.

Section 7.2  Minimum Daily Fresh Water Volume Commitment.    

29


 

 

(a)In addition to the fees payable by Producer to Antero Water pursuant to Section 7.1(a), Producer shall pay Antero Water and, if applicable, Antero Water shall pay Producer the amounts provided for in this Section 7.2 in respect of the Minimum Daily Fresh Water Volume Commitment.

(b)Subject to the last sentence of this Section 7.2(b), with respect to each of the first three calendar quarters in each calendar year from 2016 through 2019, inclusive, Producer shall pay to Antero Water, on or before the 30th Day after receipt of Antero Water’s invoice therefor (which shall be delivered not more than sixty (60) Days after the end of such calendar quarter), an amount equal to the excess, if any (such excess, the “Quarterly MVC Shorfall Fee”), of:

(i)the product of the Minimum Quarterly Fresh Water Volume Commitment for such calendar quarter multiplied by the  Weighted Delivery Point Fee in effect on the last Day of such calendar quarter over

(ii)the product of the aggregate of the MVC Credit Volumes for such calendar quarter multiplied by the applicable Delivery Point Fee in effect on the last Day of such calendar quarter.

If there is no excess resulting in a Quarterly MVC Shortfall Fee, then no amounts shall be payable by Producer under this Section 7.2(b).  If there is such an excess, commencing in calendar year 2017 Producer shall be entitled to a credit against any Quarterly MVC Shortfall Fee in any calendar year in an amount not to exceed, in the aggregate,  the Previous Year Credit, if any, with respect to such calendar year (but for the second and third such calendar quarters in such calendar year, only to the extent not credited in a previous calendar quarter in such calendar year), and the Quarterly MVC Shortfall Fee shall be reduced by the amount of such credit.

(c)On or before the 60th Day after the end of each calendar year from 2016 through 2019, inclusive, Antero Water shall deliver an invoice to Producer setting forth the amount resulting from the following calculation:

(i)the product of the Minimum Annual Fresh Water Volume Commitment for such calendar year multiplied by the Weighted Delivery Point Fee in effect on the last Day of such calendar year minus

(ii)the sum of (A) the product of the aggregate of the MVC Credit Volumes for such calendar year multiplied by the applicable Delivery Point Fee in effect on the last Day of such calendar year plus (B) commencing in calendar year 2017, the amount of any Previous Year Credit plus (C) the amount, if any, actually paid by Producer in respect of Quarterly MVC Shortfall Fees in such calendar year.

If the result is a positive amount, Producer shall pay such amount to Antero Water on or before the 30th Day after receipt of such invoice.  If the result is a negative amount, Antero Water shall pay to Producer, concurrently with the delivery of such invoice, the lesser of (1) the absolute value of such amount and (2) the sum of the amounts actually paid by Producer in respect of Quarterly MVC Shortfall Fees in such calendar year.

Section 11.6  Non-Conforming Waste Water.  If the Produced Water quality at any Produced Water Receipt Point or any Other Waste Water where collected by Antero Water does not conform to the Waste Water Quality Standards, then Antero Water will have the right to immediately discontinue taking Produced Water at such Produced Water Receipt Point or such Other Waste Water so long as the Produced Water at such Produced Water Receipt Point or such Other Waste Water continues to be non-conforming.  In the event that Antero Water takes receipt of non-conforming Produced Water at any Produced Water Receipt Point or collects non-conforming Other Waste Water, Producer agrees to be responsible for, and to defend, indemnify, release, and hold Antero Water and its Affiliates, directors, officers, employees, agents, consultants, representatives, and invitees harmless from and against, all claims and losses of whatever kind and nature resulting from such non-conforming Produced Water or Other Waste Water, including claims and losses resulting from any negligent acts or omissions of any indemnified party, but excluding claims and losses to the extent caused by or arising out of the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the indemnified party.  “Waste Water Quality Standards” means, with respect to any Waste Water, that such Waste Water is free from any contamination or any substances that would result in such Waste Water not meeting any requirements imposed by Applicable Law for transportation by truck or any quality standards of the Treatment Facility or a Designated Receiving Facility; provided, however, that such Waste Water shall not be rendered nonconforming by the presence in such Waste Water of invasive species (including zebra mussels and quagga mussels) and other invasive or non-native pathogens or infectious agents to the extent that such species, pathogens, or agents originated from Fresh Water delivered by Antero Water hereunder.

Article 12
MEASUREMENT EQUIPMENT AND PROCEDURES

Section 12.1  Measurement Equipment.  Antero Water shall (or shall cause Antero Treatment or another Affiliate of Antero Water to) install, own, operate, and maintain Measurement Facilities (a) to measure the volumes of Fresh Water taken at each Take Point on each Day and (b) to measure the volumes of Fresh Water (other than Treated Waste Water) made available at each Fresh Water Measurement Point on each Day.  Antero Water shall also track and account for volumes of Fresh Water consisting of Treated Waste Water that are commingled with other Fresh Water in the High-Rate Transfer Facilities.  Producer shall have the right to install check Measurement Facilities at each Take Point and each Fresh Water Measurement Point, including the right to install check measurement equipment on Antero Water’s meter tubes and orifice unions.  Producer may also check Antero Water’s measurements of Fresh Water using data collected by Producer or its hydraulic fracturing contractors regarding the actual volumes of Fresh Water delivered from the High-Rate Transfer Facilities into the Fresh Water Delivery Points. Unless such check measurements show a discrepancy of greater than 2%, for all purposes of this Agreement, the volumes of Fresh Water delivered on such Day to the Fresh Water Delivery Points shall be deemed to equal the volumes of Fresh Water measured at the Fresh Water Measurement Point on each Day.  The changing and integration of the charts (if utilized for measurement purposes hereunder) and calibrating and adjusting of meters shall be performed by Antero Water.

36


 

 

Section 12.2  Notice of Measurement Facilities Inspection and Calibration.  Each Party shall give reasonable notice to the other Party in order that the other Party may, at its option, have representatives present to observe any reading, inspecting, testing, calibrating or adjusting of Measurement Facilities or other facilities or equipment (including Producer’s or its hydraulic fracturing contractor’s equipment collecting data regarding Fresh Water volumes at the Fresh Water Delivery Points) used in measuring or checking the measurement of volumes of Fresh Water under this Agreement.  The official electronic data from such Measurement Facilities or other facilities or equipment shall remain the property of the owner thereof, but copies of such records shall, upon request, be submitted, together with calculations and flow computer configurations therefrom, to the requesting Party for inspection and verification.

Section 12.3  Measurement Accuracy Verification.

(a)Each Party shall verify the accuracy of all Measurement Facilities owned by such Party used in measuring or checking the measurement of volumes of Fresh Water under this Agreement no less frequently than quarterly.  Neither Party shall be required to cause adjustment or calibration of such equipment more frequently than once per Month, unless a special test is requested pursuant to Section 12.4.

(b)If, during any test of such Measurement Facilities, an adjustment or calibration error is found which results in an incremental adjustment to the calculated flow rate through each meter run in excess of two percent (2%) of the adjusted flow rate (whether positive or negative and using the adjusted flow rate as the percent error equation denominator), then any previous recordings of such equipment shall be corrected to zero error for any period during which the error existed (and which is either known definitely or agreed to by the Parties) and the total flow for the period redetermined in accordance with the provisions of Section 12.5.  If the period of error condition cannot be determined or agreed upon between the Parties, such correction shall be made over a period extending over the last one half of the time elapsed since the date of the prior test revealing the two percent (2%) error.

(c)If, during any test of such Measurement Facilities, an adjustment or calibration error is found which results in an incremental adjustment to the calculated hourly flow rate which does not exceed two percent (2%) of the adjusted flow rate, all prior recordings and electronic flow computer data shall be considered to be accurate for volume determination purpose.

Section 12.4  Special Tests.  In the event a Party desires a special test (a test not scheduled by a Party under the provisions of Section 12.3) of any Measurement Facilities used in measuring or checking the measurement of volumes of Fresh Water under this Agreement, seventy-two (72) hours advance notice shall be given to the other Party and both Parties shall cooperate to secure a prompt test of the accuracy of such equipment.  If such Measurement Facilities tested are found to be within the two percent (2%) range of accuracy set forth in Section 12.3(b), then the Party that requested the test shall pay the costs of such special test including any labor and transportation costs pertaining thereto.  If such Measurement Facilities tested are found to be outside the two percent (2%) range of accuracy set forth in Section 12.3(b), then the Party that owns such Measurement Facilities shall pay such costs and perform the corrections according to Section 12.5.

37


 

 

Section 12.5  Metered Flow Rates in Error.  If, for any reason, any Measurement Facilities used in measuring or checking the measurement of volumes of Fresh Water under this Agreement are (i) out of adjustment, (ii) out of service, or (iii) out of repair and the total calculated flow rate through each meter run is found to be in error in excess of two percent (2%) of the adjusted flow rate as described in Section 12.3(b), the total volumes of Fresh Water made available shall be determined in accordance with the first of the following methods which is feasible:

(a)By using the registration of any mutually agreeable check metering facility, if installed and accurately registering (subject to testing as provided for in Section 12.3), or Producer’s or its hydraulic fracturing contractor’s data regarding Fresh Water received at the Fresh Water Delivery Points, taken together with Antero Water’s data regarding the amount of such Fresh Water delivered that consisted of Treated Waste Water;

(b)Where multiple meter runs exist in series, by calculation using the registration of such meter run equipment; provided that they are measuring Fresh Water in common with the faulty metering equipment, are not controlled by separate regulators, and are accurately registering;

(c)By correcting the error by re-reading of the official data, or by straightforward application of a correcting factor to the volumes recorded for the period (if the net percentage of error is ascertainable by calibration, tests or mathematical calculation); or

(d)By estimating the volumes, based upon volumes made available during periods of similar conditions when the meter was registering accurately.

Section 12.6  Waste Water Measurement.  Volumes of Waste Water shall be determined for all relevant purposes under this Agreement based on the number of truck loads of Waste Water received or collected by Antero Water or its subcontractors and/or the number of truck loads of Waste Water delivered to the Treatment Facility or a Designated Receiving Facility and on the capacity of the trucks, assuming that each truck load consisted of the full capacity of the relevant truck. 

Section 12.7  Units of Measurement. The unit of volume for measurement of Fresh Water and Waste Water hereunder shall be one Barrel.  Delivery rates for Fresh Water shall be stated in Barrels per minute.

Section 12.8  Record Retention.  The Party owning the Measurement Facilities shall retain and preserve all test data, flow metering data, and similar records for any calendar year for a period of at least twenty-four (24) Months following the end of such calendar year unless Applicable Law requires a longer time period or such Party has received notification of a dispute involving such records, in which case records shall be retained until the related issue is resolved.

FORCE MAJEURE

Section 15.1  Suspension of Obligations.  In the event a Party is rendered unable, wholly or in part, by Force Majeure to carry out its obligations under this Agreement, other than the obligation to make payments then or thereafter due hereunder, and such Party promptly gives notice and reasonably full particulars of such Force Majeure to the other Party promptly after the occurrence of the cause relied on, then the obligations of the Party giving such notice, so far as and to the extent that they are affected by such Force Majeure, shall be suspended during the continuance of any inability so caused, but for no longer period, and such cause shall so far as reasonably possible be remedied with all reasonable dispatch by the Party claiming Force Majeure.

Section 15.2  Definition of Force Majeure.  The term “Force Majeure” as used in this Agreement shall mean any cause or causes not reasonably within the control of the Party claiming suspension and which, by the exercise of reasonable diligence, such Party is unable to prevent or overcome, including acts of God, strikes, lockouts or other industrial disturbances, acts of the public enemy, acts of terror, sabotage, wars, blockades, military action, insurrections, riots, epidemics, landslides, subsidence, lightning, earthquakes, fires, storms or storm warnings, crevasses, floods, washouts, civil disturbances, explosions, breakage or accident to wells, machinery, equipment or lines of pipe, the necessity for testing or making repairs or alterations to wells, machinery, equipment or lines of pipe, freezing of wells, equipment or lines of pipe, inability of any Party hereto to obtain, after the exercise of reasonable diligence, necessary materials, supplies, or Governmental Approvals, any action or restraint by any Governmental Authority (so long as the Party claiming suspension has not applied for or assisted in the application for, and has opposed where and to the extent reasonable, such action or restraint, and as long as such action or

42


 

 

restraint is not the result of a failure by the claiming Party to comply with any Applicable Law), and, in the case of a Force Majeure claimed by Antero Water only, any breach of any representation or warranty of Producer or any failure by Producer to perform any obligation of Producer under either (a) that certain Amended and Restated Contribution Agreement dated November 10, 2014, by and between Producer and Antero Midstream LLC or (b) that certain Contribution, Conveyance and Assumption Agreement dated September 17, 2015, by and among Producer, Antero Midstream Partners LP, and Antero Treatment (the “Contribution Agreement”).

Section 15.3  Settlement of Strikes and Lockouts.  It is understood and agreed that the settlement of strikes or lockouts shall be entirely within the discretion of the Party having the difficulty, and that the above requirement that any Force Majeure shall be remedied with all reasonable dispatch shall not require the settlement of strikes or lockouts by acceding to the demands of the opposing party when such course is inadvisable in the sole discretion of the Party having the difficulty.

Section 15.4  Payments for Services Performed.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, it is specifically understood and agreed by the Parties that an event of Force Majeure will in no way affect or terminate Producer’s obligation to make payment for Fluid Handling Services performed prior to such event of Force Majeure.

(e)Notwithstanding the foregoing clause (c):

(i)Antero Water shall have the right to assign its rights and obligations under this Agreement, in whole or in part, as applicable, without the consent of Producer (A) to an Affiliate of Antero Water or (B) to any Person to which the Fresh Water Facilities or any part thereof or any facilities through which the Waste Water Services are performed has been or will be transferred who (1) hires (or retains, as applicable) operating personnel who are then operating such facilities (or has similarly experienced operating personnel itself), (2) has operated for at least two (2) years prior to such assignment systems similar to such facilities, or (3) contracts for the operation of such facilities with another Person that satisfies either of the foregoing conditions (1) or (2) in this clause (B), provided, in the case of an assignment under either of clause (A) or clause (B), that the assignee assumes in writing all of Antero Water’s obligations hereunder (if applicable, to the extent of the Fresh Water Facilities or other Facilities being transferred to such Person).

COST OF SERVICE FEE

The Monthly Cost of Service Fee for each Contract Year shall be calculated separately for each CS Facility.  The Cost of Service Fees for each CS Facility are then summed to result in the total Cost of Service Fee payable for each Month in the Contract Year.  The Monthly Cost of Service Fee for each Contract Year for each CS Facility is determined as follows:

Monthly Capex Fee + Monthly O&M Fee = Monthly Cost of Service Fee.

The “Monthly Capex Fee” for each CS Facility is an amount equal to the product of (i) the amount that, if paid to Antero Water with respect to each Month remaining in the Recovery Term for such CS Facility, when taken together with all Prior Capex Fees paid to Antero Water for such CS Facility, would result in Antero Water recovering Producer’s share of all capital expenditures for such CS Facility over a period of 84 Months commencing with the placement in service of such CS Facility (the “Recovery Term”), with a return on capital invested of 13% per annum. “Prior Capex Fees” means, with respect to any Contract Year and any CS Facility, the aggregate of the Monthly Capex Fees with respect to such CS Facility paid in all prior Contract Years.  For purposes of determining the Monthly Capex Fee for any Contract Year, “Producer’s share” of the relevant capital expenditures is Producer’s Throughput Percentage for the Recovery Term, determined using actual throughput where historical throughput volumes are available and estimated throughput volumes for future periods.

The “Monthly O&M Fee” for any Contract Year is an amount equal to:

(i)the sum of:

(a)(1) the operations and maintenance costs and expenses, including the costs and expenses of repairs and replacements in kind, that Antero Water estimates it will incur with respect to the CS Facility during the Contract Year multiplied by (2) Antero Water’s estimate of Producer’s Throughput Percentage for such Contract Year; plus

(b)the O&M True Up Amount, if any,

(ii)divided by 12.

The “O&M True Up Amount” means, with respect to any Contract Year and any CS Facility,

(i)the positive or negative difference resulting from the following calculation:

(a)the product of (x) the actual operations and maintenance costs and expenses, including the costs and expenses of repairs and replacements in kind, incurred by Antero Water in the immediately prior Contract Year with respect to such CS Facility multiplied by (y) Producer’s actual Throughput Percentage for such Contract year;

Minus

(b)the sum of the aggregate Monthly O&M Fees paid to Antero Water with respect to such CS Facility with respect to the immediately prior Contract Year,

Exhibit H – Page 1


 

 

(ii)plus 13% per annum.

The Monthly O&M Fee includes Antero Water’s reasonable allocation to the CS Facility of Antero Water’s overhead and general and administrative expenses together with taxes payable by Antero Water with respect to the CS Facility or the Fluid Handling Services performed in connection with the CS Facility (but excluding in any event Antero Water’s income taxes), to the extent not otherwise paid or reimbursed by Producer pursuant to this Agreement.

The “Throughput Percentage” for any CS Facility for any period is a fraction the numerator of which is the total volumes of Fresh Water and/or Waste Water, as applicable, put through such CS Facility under this Agreement during such period and the denominator is the total volumes of Fresh Water and or Waste Water, as applicable, put through such CS Facility (including third party volumes) during such period.
