26. CONTINGENT PAYMENTS
A) Sunrise Oil Sands Partnership In connection with the Sunrise Acquisition, Cenovus agreed to make quarterly variable payments, up to $600 million, from SOSP to bp Canada for up to eight quarters subsequent to August 31, 2022, when the average WCS price in a quarter exceeds $52.00 per barrel. The quarterly payment is calculated as $2.8 million plus the difference between the average WCS price less $53.00 multiplied by $2.8 million, for any of the eight quarters the average WCS price is equal to or greater than $52.00 per barrel. If the average WCS price is less than $52.00 per barrel, no payment will be made for that quarter. The maximum payment over the remaining term of the contract is $194 million. The variable payment will be re-measured to fair value at each reporting date, with changes in fair value recorded to re-measurement of contingent payments. In the year ended December 31, 2023, payments totaled $299 million for the quarterly payment periods ending November 30, 2022, February 28, 2023, May 31, 2023, and August 31, 2023.
