TERMS OF ENGAGEMENT

 

1.0 INDEPENDENT ADVISORY FRAMEWORK

• 1.1 Independent Status: Linden Hof acts exclusively as an independent technical advisor. All diagnostic reports, Lender's Technical Due Diligence (TDD) memoranda, and milestone certificates reflect objective, empirical engineering assessments.

• 1.2 Market Autonomy: The firm does not act as an EPC contractor, equipment supplier, or equity underwriter, preserving zero financial conflict of interest.

​

2.0 MANDATE EXECUTION & DUTY OF CARE

• 2.1 Formal Reliance: Legal reliance on Linden Hof deliverables is granted strictly to entities (such as Lenders, Funds, Syndicates, or Sponsors) explicitly named in a fully executed Master Services Agreement (MSA) or Reliance Letter.

• 2.2 Execution Windows: Diagnostic timelines, including 14-day pre-close turnarounds, commence solely upon receipt of complete native simulation files, fully executed engagement documents, and settled mobilization retainers.

• 2.3 Data Room Validity: While native files are re-simulated against empirical equatorial field data, diagnostics rely on the accuracy, completeness, and authenticity of raw site data and meteorological inputs provided by the client or project developer.

​

3.0 ANTI-BRIBERY, CORRUPTION & SANCTIONS (ABC/AML)

• 3.1 Compliance Commitment: Linden Hof maintains zero tolerance for bribery, corruption, or financial crime. Operations comply strictly with the US Foreign Corrupt Practices Act (FCPA), the UK Bribery Act, and regional anti-money laundering statutes.

• 3.2 Sanctions Vetting: The firm does not engage with entities, individuals, or syndicates subject to international sanctions lists maintained by the UN, OFAC, EU, or World Bank Group.

​

4.0 INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY & PROPRIETARY MODELS

• 4.1 Advisory IP Ownership: Proprietary diagnostic methodologies, internal recalculation models, and forensic frameworks remain the exclusive intellectual property of Linden Hof. Clients receive full contractual usage rights to final custom deliverables under an executed MSA.

​

5.0 NON-RELIANCE & GOVERNING LAW

• 5.1 Web Non-Reliance: Content published on public platforms or web channels is for institutional orientation only. Public web content does not constitute formal engineering advice, nor does it create a duty of care to any third party absent a signed MSA.

• 5.2 Limitation of Liability: Formal professional liability, fee caps, and indemnities are governed exclusively by the executed Master Services Agreement between Linden Hof and the Project Sponsor or Lender.

• 5.3 Governing Law: All advisory mandates and engagement frameworks are governed by international commercial arbitration standards as specified in the formal Master Services Agreement.
