Party B shall organize the construction work pursuant to the approved schedule,
and shall allow Party A's Representative to inspect and monitor the progress.
When the actual progress of the project falls behind schedule, Party B shall, as
requested by Party A's


                                       16
<PAGE>


Representative, submit a proposal of improvement measures, and, after obtaining
Party A's Representative's approval, shall implement said measures.

ARTICLE 10 POSTPONEMENT OF THE STARTING DATE. Party B shall start the
construction on the starting date as specified in the Agreement Provisions. If
the construction cannot start on the specified date, Party B shall submit a
request for postponement and state the reasons to Party A's Representative 5
days prior to the starting date specified in the Agreement Provisions. Party A's
Representative shall respond to Party B's request within 3 days. If Party A's
Representative approves the postponement or if it fails to respond within 3 days
(which failure to responde may be construed as approval of Party B's request),
the term of the project shall be extended by the length of the postponement. If
Party A's Representative does not approve the postponement or if Party B does
not submit its request for postponement within the prescribed time frame, the
completion date of the construction shall not be extended.

Party A may postpone the starting date of the construction if it notifies Party
B in writing and obtains Party B's approval, but Party A shall be responsible
for the financial expenditures thus incurred to Party B and the term of the
project shall be extended accordingly.

ARTICLE 11 SUSPENSION OF THE CONSTRUCTION. When necessary, Party A's
Representative may request that Party B suspend the construction and shall
provide further instructions within 48 hours after requesting the suspension.
Party B shall suspend the construction pursuant to Party A's request, protect

Representative's further instructions, request resumption of construction. Party
B shall then resume construction after obtaining Party A's Representative's
approval. If Party A's Representative fails to provide further instructions or
fails to respond within 48 hours after receiving Party B's request for
resumption of construction, Party B may resume construction without further
delay. If the responsibility for the suspension lies with Party A, Party A shall
bear the financial expenditures thus incurred and the term of the project shall
be extended accordingly. If the responsibility for the suspension lies with
Party B, Party B shall bear the expenses thus incurred. If construction cannot
resume due to Party A's Representative's failure to respond in time, Party B may
assume that Party A has cancelled the Contract in full or in part and therefore
bears responsibility for breach of contract.

delay and the financial expenditures thus incurred within 5 days after the
occurrence of any of the causes listed above. Party A's Representative shall
confirm and respond within 5 days after receiving said report. Any failure to
respond within said time frame may be construed by Party B as approval of its
request for the extension.

If the project cannot be completed pursuant to the specified construction term
for reasons other than those listed above, Party B shall be responsible for
breach of contract.

ARTICLE 13 COMPLETION AHEAD OF SCHEDULE. If it is necessary to move forward the
completion date, the Parties shall, after having reached an understanding
through consultations, sign a pre-schedule completion agreement. Party B shall
modify the construction schedule pursuant to the new agreement and submit it to

If, after the project passes the inspections specified herein, additional
quality problems occur due to Party B's fault, Party B shall be responsible for
the correction of the problems and the expenses thus incurred and shall
compensate Party A for its losses, and the term of construction shall be
extended accordingly.

Said inspections shall not affect the normal progress of construction. If they
affect the progress of construction, and if construction does not pass the
inspections, the expenses arising out of the interruption to the normal progress
of construction shall be borne by Party B. In all other cases, expenses arising
out of the interruption shall be borne by Party A, and the term of construction
shall be extended accordingly.

standards of quality inspection at the national or industry level. If Party A
requests that the project, in full or in part, meet the premium quality level,
Party A shall be responsible for any additional financial expenditures thus
incurred and, if such requests affect the progress of construction, the term of
the project shall be extended accordingly.

If Party A's Representative finds any part of the project below the quality
level specified in the Contract, Party A's Representative may request reworking
and Party B shall perform the reworking, within the time frame requested by
Party A, until the specified requirements are met. If the non-compliance is due
to Party B's fault, Party B shall be responsible for the cost of the reworking
and the term of construction shall not be extended. If the specified
requirements are not met even after reworking, Party B shall be responsible for
breach of contract. If the non-compliance is due to Party A's fault, Party A
shall be responsible for the financial expenditures associated with the
reworking and the term of construction shall be extended accordingly.

Any dispute over the quality of the project between the Parties shall be
submitted for arbitration by quality supervision offices specified in the
Agreement Provisions. The expenses of the arbitration and the resultant losses
shall be borne by the party found to be at fault.

ARTICLE 16 CONCEALED WORKS AND MID-POINT ACCEPTANCE CHECKS. When work is to be
covered, or when a mid-point acceptance check is required according to the
Agreement Provisions, Party B shall, after successfully performing its own
inspections, notify Party A's Representative 48 hours prior to the specified
time for the concealed work or mid-point acceptance inspection. The notice shall
include records of Party B's own inspections as well as the scope, time and
place of the concealed work and mid-point acceptance inspections. Party B shall
prepare the acceptance check records. If the work passes the acceptance check,
Party A's Representative shall sign the acceptance check forms before the work
can be concealed and construction be resumed. If the work fails the acceptance
check, Party B shall correct the problems within the specified time frame and
prepare for another acceptance check.


                                       19
<PAGE>


If the project quality meets the specifications but Party A's Representative
fails to sign the acceptance check forms within 24 hours after the inspection,
such a situation may be construed as Party A's Representative's approval of the
inspection and Party B may conceal the work or resume the construction.

ARTICLE 17 TEST RUN. If installed equipment meets single-unit no-load test run
requirements, Party B shall arrange for the test run and notify Party A's
Representative 48 hours prior to the test run. The notice shall include the

run. The notice shall include the scope, time, and place of the test run as well
as requirements for the preparation work to be performed by Party B. Party B
shall complete the required preparation work and prepare the test run forms.
After the test run is successfully performed, both Parties shall sign the test
run forms before proceeding to project completion and acceptance.

If design defects result in failure of the test run to meet acceptance
requirements, Party A shall modify the design and Party B shall re-install the
equipment pursuant to the modified design. Party A shall be responsible for the
expenses of modifying the design as well as of removing and reinstalling the
equipment. The term of construction shall be extended accordingly.

If manufacturing defects in the equipment result in failure of the test run to
meet acceptance requirements, the party that purchased the equipment shall be
responsible for the repurchase or repair of the equipment. Party B shall be
responsible for removing and reinstalling the equipment. If the equipment was
purchased by Party B, Party B shall be responsible for the expenses of repairing
or repurchasing as well as of removing and reinstalling the equipment, and the
term of construction shall not be extended. If the equipment was purchased by
Party A, Party A shall be responsible for all the expenses listed above and the
term of construction shall be extended accordingly.

If the test run fails to meet acceptance requirements due to problems in Party
B's construction work, Party A's Representative shall present opinions on
modification within 24 hours after the test run. Party B shall complete the
modification and conduct the test run again. Party B shall be responsible for
the expenses of the modification and the re-run, and the term of construction
shall not be extended.

Party A shall bear the cost of the test run excluding the amount already
included in the contract cost or otherwise specified in the Agreement
Provisions.

If Party A's Representative does not present any modification opinions within
the specified time frame or does not sign the test run record forms after the
test run is successfully


                                       20
<PAGE>


performed, the record forms shall automatically become valid 24 hours after the
test run, and Party B may resume the construction or perform project completion
procedures.

ARTICLE 18 ACCEPTANCE CHECK AND RE-INSPECTION. If Party A's Representative is
not able to participate in the acceptance check or the test run on time, Party
A's Representative shall submit to Party B, 24 hours prior to the start of the
acceptance check or the test run, a postponement request for a period not
exceeding two days. If Party A's Representative fails to submit a postponement
request within the time frame specified herein and fails to be present at the
acceptance check or the test run, Party B may arrange the acceptance check or
the test run on its own and Party A shall acknowledge the acceptance check
records or the test run records.

If Party A's Representative, no matter whether it has participated in the
acceptance check, requests a re-inspection of concealed work, Party B shall
uncover the work as requested and shall re-cover or repair the work after the
re-inspection. If the sections pass the re-inspection, Party A shall be
responsible for the financial expenditures thus incurred and compensate Party B
for its losses, and the term of construction shall be extended accordingly. If
the sections fail the re-inspection, Party B shall be responsible for the
expenses thus incurred and the term of construction shall be extended
accordingly.

amount and reasons thereof. Upon approval, Party A's representative shall notify
the account-holding bank and Party B. If Party A's Representative fails to
respond within 10 days after receiving Party B's notice, the absence of the
response may be construed as approval of the


                                       21
<PAGE>


adjustment.

ARTICLE 20 ADVANCE PAYMENT OF THE PROJECT COST. Party A shall make an advance
payment of the project cost to Party B in the time frame and the amount
specified in the Agreement Provisions. After the starting date of the
construction, Party A shall receive repayment of the project cost in
installments in the time frame and the proportions specified in the Agreement
Provisions. If Party A fails to make the advance payment as specified in the
Agreement Provisions, Party B may send a request for advance payment notice to
Party A 10 days after the specified payment date. If Party A still fails to make
the requested advance payment after receiving Party B's notice, Party B may
suspend the construction 5 days after sending the notice. Party A shall pay

("amount calculation") within 3 days after receiving the report and shall notify
Party B 24 hours prior to performing the amount calculation. Party B shall
provide support for the amount calculation and appoint some staff to participate
in it. If, without due cause, Party B fails to participate in the amount
calculation, Party A's Representative may conduct it on its own and the result
of the calculation shall be deemed a valid basis for making payments of the
project cost. If Party A's Representative fails to conduct the amount
calculation within 3 days after receiving Party B's report, then, beginning on
day 4, the work amount listed in Party B's reports shall be deemed verified and
shall serve as the basis for making payments of the project cost. If Party A's
Representative fails to notify Party B within the specified time frame and thus
causes Party B to miss the amount calculation, the result of the calculation
shall be deemed invalid.

Party A's Representative shall not calculate the amount of work completed by
Party B in excess of the amount specified in the project drawings or the amount
of work involved in reworking necessitated by Party B's own problems.

ARTICLE 22 PAYMENT OF THE PROJECT COST. Party A shall, within the time frame and

within 10 days after Party A's Representative calculates the amount and signs,
Party B may send a request for payment notice to Party A. If Party A still fails
to make the requested payment after receiving Party B's notice, Party B may
suspend construction 5 days after sending the notice. Party A shall be
responsible for the breach of contract.

Party A may postpone its payment of the project cost if Party B agrees and signs
an


                                       22

time frame specified in the Agreement Provisions and shall either approve or
present modification opinions within 5 days after the acceptance check. Party B
shall implement the changes as required. Party B shall also be responsible for
any expenses of modification arising from its own problems.

If Party A's Representative fails, without due cause, to arrange for an
acceptance check within 10 days after receiving Party B's completion acceptance
check reports or fails to approve the project or present modification opinions
within 5 days after the acceptance check, such failure may be construed as
approval of the completion acceptance check reports. In such circumstances,
Party B shall proceed to the settlement procedures, and the completion date
shall be the date when Party B submits the completion acceptance check reports.
For projects that need modifications before meeting the completion requirements,
the completion date shall be the date when Party B, after implementing the
modifications, invites Party A to conduct an acceptance check.

If Party A cannot arrange for an acceptance check on the date specified in the
Agreement Provisions, Party A shall be responsible for the expense of
safeguarding the works with the calculation of the fees starting on the day
after the last day of the specified time frame.

If, for some special reasons, some unit projects or sections are to be completed
