12.3 | Supplier Warranties and Service Life Policies |
Prior to or at Delivery of the first Aircraft, the Seller shall provide the Buyer, in accordance with the provisions of Clause 17, with the warranties and, where applicable, service life policies that the Seller has obtained for Supplier Parts pursuant to the Supplier Product Support Agreements.
| | | | | |
| |
12.3.1.1 | "Supplier" means any supplier of Supplier Parts. |
| | | | | |
| |
12.3.1.2 | "Supplier Part" means any component, equipment, accessory or part installed in an Aircraft at the time of Delivery thereof and for which there exists a Supplier Product Support Agreement. For the sake of clarity, Propulsion Systems and Buyer Furnished Equipment and other equipment selected by the Buyer to be supplied by suppliers with whom the Seller has no existing enforceable warranty agreements are not Supplier Parts. |
| | | | | |
| |
12.3.1.3 | "Supplier Product Support Agreements" means agreements between the Seller and Suppliers, as described in Clause 17.1.2, containing enforceable and transferable warranties and, in the case of landing gear suppliers, service life policies for selected structural landing gear elements. |

| | | | | |
| |
12.3.2.3 | At the Seller's request, the Buyer shall assign to the Seller, and the Seller shall be subrogated to, all of the Buyer's rights against the relevant Supplier with respect to and arising by reason of such default and shall provide reasonable assistance to enable the Seller to enforce the rights so assigned. |
If the Buyer experiences any technical problem in the operation of an Aircraft or its systems due to a malfunction, the cause of which, after due and reasonable investigation, is not readily identifiable by the Buyer but which the Buyer reasonably believes to be attributable to the design characteristics of one or more components of the Aircraft ("Interface Problem"), the Seller shall, if so requested by the Buyer, [***], promptly conduct or have conducted an investigation and analysis of such problem to determine, if possible, the cause or causes of the problem and to recommend such corrective action as may be feasible. The Buyer shall furnish to the Seller all data and information in the Buyer's possession relevant to the Interface Problem and shall cooperate with the Seller in the conduct of the Seller's investigations and such tests as may be required.
At the conclusion of such investigation, the Seller shall promptly advise the Buyer in writing of the Seller's opinion as to the cause or causes of the Interface Problem and the Seller's recommendations as to corrective action.
| | | | | |
| |
12.4.2 | Seller's Responsibility |

the terms and conditions of Clause 12.1, correct the design of such Warranted Part to the extent of the Seller's obligation as defined in Clause 12.1.

Should the Supplier fail to address such Interface Problem in a manner reasonably satisfactory to Buyer, then the conditions of Clause 12.3.2 shall apply.
| | | | | |
| |
12.4.4 | Joint Responsibility |
If the Seller determines, acting reasonably, that the Interface Problem is attributable partially to the design of a Warranted Part and partially to the design of any Supplier Part, the Seller shall, if so requested by the Buyer, seek a solution to the Interface Problem through cooperative efforts of the Seller and any Supplier involved.
The Seller shall promptly advise the Buyer of such corrective action as may be proposed by the Seller and any such Supplier. Such proposal shall be consistent with any then existing obligations of the Seller hereunder and of any such Supplier towards the Buyer. [***]

Page 35 of 35
| | | | | |
| |
• | Prompt administration of claims concerning Engine Warranty, Service Policy, other support programs and Guarantee Plans. |
| | | | | |
| |
• | Investigation of part condition and part failure. |
| | | | | |
| |
• | Material provisioning administration for Controlled Service Use programs and other material support. |
3.1.1 Prompt Administration:
Spirit is assigned a Warranty Analyst whose job is to provide individual attention and obtain prompt and effective settlements of Warranty and Service Policy claims. A typical claim properly submitted is generally settled, including issuance of applicable credit memo, within thirty days. Experience generated by much of the data derived from such claims often enables IAE to monitor trends in operating experience and to address and often eliminate potential problems.
3.1.2 Investigation and Reports:
Parts returned to IAE pursuant to the terms of the Service Policy are investigated in appropriate detail to analyze and evaluate part condition and cause of part failure. A report of findings is prepared and forwarded to Spirit and to all IAE departments involved. In the case of vendor parts, the vendor is promptly informed. Where relevant, reports will include recommendations to preclude repetition of the problem.
3.2 MAINTENANCE CENTER SUPPORT
IAE has arranged for the establishment of Maintenance Centers which are available to accomplish repairs, modifications and conversions, as well as the complete overhaul of the V2500 engine subject to IAE's standard terms and conditions for such work.

5.1 SPARE PARTS SUPPORT
The Spare Parts Group provides the following categories of spare parts support to Spirit, as requested by Spirit:
| | | | | |
| |
• | - Individual Customer Account Representatives |
| | | | | |
| |
• | - Effective Expedite Service |
| | | | | |
| |
• | - Worldwide Distribution |
5.1.1 Account Representative:
An Account Representative shall be assigned to Spirit. This representative provides individualized attention for effective spare parts order administration, and is the customer's interface on all matters pertaining to new part planning and procurement. Each representative is responsible for monitoring Spirit's requirements and providing effective administrative support. The Account Representatives shall be thoroughly familiar with Spirit's spare parts ordering policies and procedures and are responsible for ensuring that all of Spirit's new parts orders are processed in an effective manner.
5.1.2 Spare Parts Provisioning Planning:
Prior to delivery of the first Spirit aircraft, preplanning discussions will be held to determine the aircraft/engine program, and engine spare parts provisioning and order plans. Mutually agreed upon provisioning target dates are then established and on-time completion tracked by Spirit's Account Representative with the assistance of logistics specialists in Spare Parts Provisioning and Inventory Management. Meetings are held with Spirit at a mutually agreeable time to review suggested spare parts provisioning lists prepared by Spare Parts Provisioning. These lists are designed to support Spirit's particular fleet size, route structure and maintenance and overhaul program.
5.1.3 Order Administration:
IAE subscribes to the general principles of Air Transport Association of America (ATA) Specification No. 2000, Integrated Data Processing - Supply. The procedures of Air Transport Association of America (ATA) Specification No. 200 may be used for Initial Provisioning (Chapter II), Order Administration (either Chapter III or Chapter VI), or Invoicing (Chapter IV).
A spare parts supply objective is to maintain a 90 percent on-time shipment performance record to Spirit's requirements. The lead time for replenishment spare parts is identified in the IAE spare Parts Price Catalog. Initial provisioning spare parts orders should be placed at least six months prior to required delivery, while conversions and major modifications require full manufacturing lead times.
The action to be taken on emergency requests will be answered as follows:
| | | | | |
| |
• | Aircraft-On-Ground (AOG) - within four hours (in these instances every effort is made to ship immediately). |
| | | | | |
| |
• | Critical (Imminent Aircraft-On-Ground (AOG) or Work Stoppage) -- Within 24 hours. |
| | | | | |
| |
• | Stock Outage -- Within seven working days (these items are shipped as per Spirit's request). |
5.1.4 Spare Parts Inventory:
To ensure availability of spare parts in accordance with published lead time, spare parts provisioning maintains a modern, comprehensive requirements planning and inventory management system which is responsive to changes in Spirit's demand, special support programs and engineering design. Organized
on an engine model basis, this system is intended to maintain part availability for delivery to customers consistent with published lead times.
A majority of parts in the spare parts inventory are continually controlled by an Automatic Forecasting and Ordering System. Those parts which do not lend themselves to automatic control due to supercedure, unusual usage or conversion requirements are under the direct manual control of Spares Planning personnel. As additional protection against changes in production lead time or unpredicted demand, certain raw materials are also inventoried. Successful inventory management is keyed to accurate requirements planning. In support of the requirements planning effort, a wide ranging data retrieval and analysis program is offered. This program concerns itself both with the customer logistics and technical considerations as follows:
| | | | | |
| |
• | Forecasts of life limited parts requirements are requested and received semi-annually from major customers. Based on the size of Spirit's order, Spirit shall be considered a major customer. |
| | | | | |
| |
• | Engine technical conferences are held frequently within IAE to assess the impact of technical problems on parts. |
| | | | | |
| |
• | For a selected group of parts a provisioning conference system is offered which considers actual part inventory change, including usage and receipts, as reported monthly by participating customers. |
5.1.5 Packaging
All material is packaged in general compliance with Air Transport Association of America (ATA) Specification No. 300.
5.1.6 World Airline Supplier's Guide:

3.1 [***] If Carrier chooses to accept only one of the categories of products but later submits a Transaction outside of the selected category, Servicer and Member are not required to reject the Transaction and Carrier will be charged standard fees and expenses for that category of products. Further, if Carrier chooses a limited acceptance option, it must still honor all international cards presented for payment. If Carrier decides to implement a limited acceptance policy, it shall display appropriate signage to communicate that policy to Cardholders. Except as may be permitted by applicable local law and Operating Regulations, Carrier will not impose a surcharge for purchases made with the Card nor shall Carrier establish minimum or maximum transaction amounts as a condition for honoring Cards.
3.2 Carrier shall use reasonable efforts to cause all Agents to permit Cardholders to charge Travel Costs only in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Agreement and in compliance with applicable Operating Regulations. Carrier shall use reasonable efforts to cause compliance by Agents with all of the terms and conditions of the Agreement to be performed by Carrier or Agents. Notwithstanding any such reasonable efforts by Carrier, Carrier shall be responsible for: (i) any failure by any Agent in performing the applicable provisions of the Agreement; and (ii) the settlement of Sales Records and Credit Records completed by Agents.
3.3 Before honoring a Card, Carrier shall do the following to determine whether the Card is valid: (a) where possible, examine the format of each Card presented in connection with a purchase for authenticity and confirm, by checking the effective date and the expiration date as stated on the face of the Card, that the Card has become effective and has not expired; and (b) obtain Authorization. Neither Carrier nor any Agent shall impose a requirement on Cardholders to provide any personal information such as a home or business telephone number, home or business address, driver's license number, or a photocopy of a driver's license as a condition for honoring Cards unless such information is required or permitted under specific circumstances cited in the Agreement.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, with respect to Transactions that are not conducted face-to-face, Carrier may request from a Cardholder the information necessary to complete an address verification service request. Neither Carrier nor any Agent shall make a photocopy of a Card under any circumstances, nor shall a Cardholder be required to provide a photocopy of the Card as a condition for honoring the Card.

| | | | | | | | |
| | |
[6.2.36] [U.S. Bank - Signatory Agreement.pdf] | | |
a condition for honoring the Card, to sign a statement that in any way waives the Cardholder's rights to dispute the Transaction. Carrier may require passengers to present personal information, including a driver's license, passport, or other picture identification, for purposes of complying with Carrier's policy or applicable law.
3.4 (a) Carrier or Agent shall obtain Authorization for the total amount of the Travel Costs before completing any Card sales Transaction (which in the case of Transactions involving paper submissions pursuant to Section 6.2(d) may require telephone Authorization). Such Authorization may be provided by any third party provider acceptable to Servicer. Authorization verifies that the Card number is valid, the Card has not been reported lost or stolen at the time of the Card sales Transaction, and confirms that the amount of credit or funds requested for the Card sales Transaction is available. Carrier or Agent will follow any instructions received during Authorization. Upon receipt of Authorization, Carrier or Agent may consummate only the Card sales Transaction authorized and must note the Authorization code on the Sales Record. For all ticket by mail, telephone or internet Card sales, Carrier must obtain the Card expiration date and forward that date as part of the Authorization.
(b) Authorization does not: (i) guarantee Carrier final payment for a Card sales Transaction; (ii) guarantee that the Card sales Transaction will not be disputed later by the Cardholder as any Card sales Transaction is subject to Chargeback; or (iii) protect Carrier in the event of a Chargeback regarding unauthorized Card sales Transactions or disputes involving the quality of goods or services. Authorization will not waive any provision of the Agreement or otherwise validate a fraudulent sales Transaction or a sales Transaction involving the use of an expired Card.
(c) In a Card sales Transaction in which a Card is presented electronically, if Carrier's Terminal is unable to read the magnetic stripe on the Card, Carrier must key-enter the Transaction into the POS Device for processing and obtain: (i) a physical imprint of the Card using a manual imprinter; and (ii) the Cardholder's signature on the imprinted Sales Record.
3.5 Neither Carrier nor any Agent shall make any Card sale to any customer in any of the following circumstances (with the exception of ticket by mail, internet or telephone pursuant to Section 3.8 permitted by the Agreement and ticket by automated machine pursuant to Section 3.9 or purchased through other CNP Transactions): (a) a Card is not presented at the time of sale; (b) the signature on the Sales Record does not appear to correspond to the signature appearing in the signature panel on the reverse side of the Card, or the Cardholder does not resemble the person depicted in any picture which appears on the Card; (c) the signature panel on the Card is blank and is not signed in accordance with the procedures specified in Section 3.6; and (d) no Authorization is received. Any Carrier or Agent completing a Transaction under the conditions in this Section 3.5 shall be responsible for such Sales Record or Credit Record regardless of any Authorization.
3.6 If the signature panel of the Card is blank, in addition to requesting Authorization, Carrier or Agent must: (a) review positive identification to determine that the user is the Cardholder; (b) indicate such positive identification (including any serial number and expiration date) on the Sales Record; and (c) require that the Cardholder sign the signature panel of the Card prior to completing the Transaction. If a Cardholder presents a Card that bears an embossed "valid from" date and the Transaction Date is prior to the "valid from" date, Carrier or Agent shall not complete the Transaction.

If an imprinter is not available, the information on the Card
and merchant plate shall be reproduced legibly on the Sales Record in sufficient detail to identify the parties to such sale. Such information shall include at least the date of sale, amount, Cardholder's name and account number and Carrier's name and place of business.
(b) Carrier shall include all items of Travel Costs purchased in a single Transaction in the total amount on a single Sales Record or Transaction record except for individual tickets issued to each passenger, when required by Carrier policy.

Each Sales Record shall be signed by the Cardholder (except where the sale is made pursuant to CNP Transaction or automated machine transaction), which signature shall appear to be the same as the signature on the Card presented, as determined by Carrier or Agent. The Cardholder shall not be required to sign a Sales Record until the final Transaction amount is known and indicated in the "Total" column.
(d) Carrier shall not effect a Transaction for only part of the amount due on a single Sales Record except when the balance of the amount due is paid by the Cardholder at the time of sale in cash, by check, with another card or Card, or any combination thereof.

The Card account number must be truncated on all Cardholder-activated copies of Sales Records. Truncated digits should be replaced with a fill character such as "x," "*," or "#," and not with blank spaces or numeric characters. All POS Devices must suppress all but the last four digits of the Card account number and the entire expiration date on the Cardholder's copy of the Electronic Sales Records generated from POS Devices (including Cardholder activated).
3.8 Carrier or Agent may enter into Card Transactions in accordance with Carrier's or such Agent's ticket by CNP Transaction program. In each such case, Carrier or Agent will complete the Sales Record (in accordance with Section 3.7) and include on the Sales Record the effective date and expiration date of the Card as obtained from the Cardholder together with words to reflect "mail order" or the letters "MO" or "telephone order" or the letters "TO," or "internet order" or the letters "IO," as appropriate. Carrier must obtain an Authorization code for all such Card Transactions. If a Carrier or Agent completes a Transaction without imprinting of the Card or using a Terminal, Carrier shall be deemed to warrant the true identity of the Cardholder as the authorized holder of such Card unless

(c) Neither Carrier nor Agent may present for processing or entry to any Card Association any Sales Record or Credit Record representing a Transaction all or part of which had been previously charged back to Servicer or Member (or an Association Obligor, if applicable) and subsequently returned to Carrier. Carrier may, at its option, pursue payment from the customer outside the Card Association system. Should Carrier exercise this option and the Cardholder acknowledge the debt, and choose to pay the amount in full using its Card, Carrier may present a Sales Record in such amount to Servicer for processing.
(d) Carrier or Agent shall submit to Servicer for processing each Sales Record in accordance with the timeframes required by the applicable Operating Regulations. The method of billing for all Electronic Sales Records and Electronic Credit Records processed through any Billing Settlement Processor must be by electronic transmission and shall include itinerary records consisting of departure dates. If Carrier is unable to submit Sales Records and Credit Records originating at Carrier's sales locations, including airport locations, ticket-by-mail centers, and other sales locations, by means of a summary electronically transmitted as provided in Sections 6.5 and 7.1, Carrier may submit such Sales Records and Credit Records to Servicer by means of a paper summary and detail thereof to Servicer's designated processing center, or by means of a Terminal that generates an electronic transmission to Servicer's designated Terminal processor.
(e) Member or Servicer will deposit, or cause to be deposited, on each Business Day, via federal wire transfer, in the case of U.S. dollar Transactions, and SWIFT, in the case of Canadian dollar Transactions, into the applicable Settlement Account for each applicable currency, an amount equal to the amount of Net Activity relating to such currency for each Business Day, subject to Servicer's receipt of the incoming transmission of Sales Records and Credit Records by the time and on the day specified in Exhibit A.
(f) At any time that the aggregate amount of Net Activity results in an amount due Member or Servicer, the aggregate amount due to each of them may be deducted, recouped or set off from amounts subsequently payable to Carrier under this Agreement on account of Sales Records irrespective of the currency in which payment to Carrier is to be made; provided, that, Member or Servicer may, at its option (i) require an immediate wire transfer from Carrier in the amount due, or (ii) apply, set off against or recoup from any Deposit amount maintained pursuant to this Agreement the amount due from Carrier under this Agreement. Carrier will, upon demand by Member or Servicer, pay interest on the amount due from Carrier under this Agreement for the period such amount remains unpaid calculated at a per annum rate equal to the Applicable Rate. Carrier acknowledges that this Agreement is a "net payment agreement" and that the right of Member or Servicer to net out obligations due from Carrier under this Agreement from amounts payable to Carrier hereunder (including from or as represented by the Deposit amount) is a right of recoupment. Carrier further acknowledges that Member and Servicer have entered into each Agreement in reliance upon such right.
(g) Amounts deposited in a Settlement Account or otherwise credited to Carrier (including, without limitation, amounts credited against Carrier's obligations to Member or Servicer for fees, costs and expenses hereunder) in respect of any Sales Record pursuant to this Agreement and Carrier's right to payment of Reserved Funds
14

| | |
[6.2.36] [U.S. Bank - Signatory Agreement.pdf] | | |
shall be provisional until the payment made to Member by the Card Association in respect of such Sales Record shall become final (i.e., all rights of Chargeback or other rights of the Cardholder or Card issuer to obtain reimbursement of such payment from Member shall have expired).
(h) Submissions and payment from any location must be handled in compliance with all applicable government laws, rules and regulations.
(i) The Signatory Agreement that is part of this Agreement may specify the location of the originating source of submission of any file.
6.3 Processing fees shall be as set forth in the Fee Schedule attached to the Signatory Agreement that is part of this Agreement.
6.4 Servicer will provide Carrier with Transaction reports each Business Day that correspond to Net Activity for such Business Day and that will summarize sales, returns (refunds), Chargebacks, processing fees, and adjustments with adequate detail to allow Carrier to perform account reconciliation.
6.5 Carrier shall cause Agents to submit Electronic Sales Records and Electronic Credit Records to Servicer in the form of the Settlement File by electronic transmission as provided in Sections 6.2(d) and 7.1 through Carrier's accounting office or the appropriate processing center of the area or Billing Settlement Processor of which Carrier is a member. Carrier or the appropriate processing center, as the case may be, shall submit the Electronic Sales Records and Electronic Credit Records to Servicer in accordance with the terms of the Agreement.
6.6 If Carrier utilizes Electronic Data Capture services pursuant to this Section 6.6 to transmit Electronic Sales Records and Electronic Credit Records for Card Transactions through a Terminal, Carrier agrees to utilize such EDC services in accordance with applicable Operating Regulations. Carrier may designate a third person as its agent to deliver to Servicer or directly to Card Associations Transactions captured at the point of sale by such agent. If Carrier elects to designate such an agent, Carrier must provide Servicer prior written notice of such election. Carrier understands and agrees that Member or Servicer is responsible to make payment to Carrier for only those Transaction amounts delivered by such agent to the Card Associations, less amounts withheld by Member or Servicer pursuant to the Agreement, and Carrier is responsible for any failure by such agent to comply with any Operating Regulations, including any such failure that results in a Chargeback.
SECTION 7. ELECTRONIC TRANSMISSION.
7.1 (a) When Electronic Sales Records and Electronic Credit Records are submitted to Servicer electronically, other than Electronic Sales Records and Electronic Credit Records originating from Terminals, as provided in Section 6.6, and processed by Servicer's Terminal processor, such Electronic Sales Records and Electronic Credit Records shall be submitted to Servicer by means of a summary of all Travel Costs by electronic transmission compatible with the computer system of Servicer and shall comply with Section 6.2 of the Agreement. Each such electronic transmission shall contain, at a minimum, the information required for each Electronic Sales Record by Section 3.7 and shall be made in the form of the Settlement File or any other format acceptable to Servicer in its sole discretion, provided, however, that (i) Carrier will not change the format of such electronic submissions
15
| | | | | | | | |
| | |
[6.2.36] [U.S. Bank - Signatory Agreement.pdf] | | |
without first obtaining Servicer's consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed and (ii) if Carrier requests a change in format with respect to such electronic submissions, Servicer may test such electronic submissions (in the requested format) prior to consenting to such change in format, and such testing by Servicer shall not constitute consent to such format change and shall not in any way limit Servicer's right to reasonably withhold consent with respect to such format change.
(b) If an electronic transmission of Travel Costs does not meet the requirements of the approved format, Servicer shall use reasonable efforts to advise Carrier within eight hours of receipt of same.
(c) Any acceptance by Servicer of an electronic transmission of Travel Costs which does not comply with the appropriate format or, if in the appropriate format, does not contain the information in respect to each Travel Cost summarized therein required by the terms of the Agreement, shall not constitute a waiver of, or preclude Member or Servicer from exercising, the right of Chargeback.
7.2 Carrier shall retain, or cause to be retained, each original Sales Record and Credit Record and any other documentation necessary for Member or Servicer to satisfy applicable Operating Regulations ("Retained Documents") relating to those Transactions transmitted to Servicer directly by Carrier, in each case for at least eighteen (18) months from the date each such Retained Document is submitted to Servicer for processing. Promptly upon Carrier's receipt of Servicer's request for the same, but in no event later than fourteen (14) calendar days following Carrier's receipt of such request, Carrier shall deliver, or cause to be delivered, to Servicer a copy, or the original if specifically requested by Servicer, of the requested document.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, either Carrier or Servicer may elect to hold in its custody Retained Documents for no more than 180 days provided such Party retains a microfilmed or microfiched (or other mutually acceptable medium) copy of such documents for at least eighteen (18) months from the date on which each such document is submitted to Servicer for processing.
SECTION 8. CHARGEBACKS.
8.1 Neither Member nor Servicer is obligated to accept any Sales Record which does not comply in every respect with the terms and conditions of this Agreement, or which does not comply in all respects with the applicable Operating Regulations.
8.2 Carrier agrees to pay Member (or if notified by Servicer to do so, to pay Servicer) the amount of each Chargeback and, in the case of amounts that have not been paid to Carrier, acknowledges Carrier has no right to receive amounts attributable to Chargebacks. Member or Servicer may deduct and retain any amount due to Member or Servicer from Carrier on account of Chargebacks from amounts otherwise payable to Carrier under this Agreement. The provisions of Section 6.2 with respect to payment of Carrier's obligations to Member and Servicer will apply in the event the amount of Net Activity results in an amount due Member or Servicer.
8.3 So long as a Chargeback claim is in the process of dispute resolution pursuant to the Operating Regulations, Carrier shall not make any other claim or take any proceedings
16

| | |
[6.2.36] [U.S. Bank - Signatory Agreement.pdf] | | |
against the Cardholder in relation to the related Card Transaction or the underlying contract of sale or service.
8.4 In connection with the processing of Chargeback claims, Servicer and Member shall be entitled to rely and act on any agreements, requests, instructions, permissions, approvals, demands or other communications given on behalf of Carrier (whether via email or otherwise in writing) and Servicer shall not be liable to Carrier for any loss or damage incurred or suffered by it as a result of such action.

SECTION 18. REIMBURSEMENT BY CARRIER.
18.1 Carrier will reimburse Member and Servicer for any fees, charges, fines, assessments, penalties, and Chargebacks that Member or Servicer may be required to pay a Card Association or may incur with regard to any Transaction(s) processed pursuant to the Agreement or arising out of any failure of Carrier to perform in compliance with applicable Operating Regulations, applicable laws and regulations, or the requirements of PCI or any act or omission by any third party service provider to Carrier or any other party to a contract with Carrier; provided, that, Carrier shall have no obligation for the portion any such amount incurred due to the extent of the willful misconduct or grossly negligent acts or omissions of Member or Servicer.

Each Member or Servicer, at its option, may apply, set off against or recoup from the Deposit amount (if any) such amount necessary to satisfy Carrier's obligations hereunder. In the case of any payment made to a third party for which Carrier reimbursed Member or Servicer, Carrier may choose to directly recover the amount involved or otherwise resolve the cause of the reimbursement in its sole discretion; provided, that, in such case, Member and Servicer shall have no obligation to recover such amount or take any other actions relating thereto except to reasonably cooperate with Carrier in the collection of information to prosecute such claims.

27
| | | | | | | | |
| | |
[6.2.36] [U.S. Bank - Signatory Agreement.pdf] | | |

to other potential parties to such dealings or transactions or their professional advisors, subject to confidentiality agreements no less protective than these confidentiality provisions, (iii) in connection with the enforcement of the rights of Member or Servicer hereunder or otherwise in connection with applicable litigation, and (iv) as may otherwise be required by any court or law enforcement or regulatory authority having jurisdiction over Member or Servicer or by any applicable law, rule, regulation or judicial process, the opinion of legal advisors to Member or Servicer concerning the making of such disclosure to be binding on the parties hereto; provided, that in the event that Member or Servicer determines that it is required to disclose any such information whether pursuant to a judicial order or to applicable law, Member or Servicer, as applicable, to the extent legally permissible, agrees to provide Carrier with ten (10) days' prior written notice (or such shorter prior notice as shall be reasonable and practicable in the circumstances) of such determination and the basis for such determination prior to making disclosure so that Carrier may consider whether to seek an appropriate protective order or to waive compliance with the requirements of this Section 24.

SECTION 26. ASSOCIATION OBLIGOR. Carrier acknowledges that Carrier may be obligated to an Association Obligor to the extent an Association Obligor has incurred liability to a Card Association either as a Direct Obligor or on account of payment of an Indirect Obligation. For the avoidance of doubt, it is understood and agreed that in the case of any such obligation, Carrier shall only be obligated to pay the obligation once, unless payment is made to an entity other than Member, Servicer, an Association Obligor, Card Association or other Secured Party, and the obligation to the Card Association is not extinguished or satisfied on account of such payment or otherwise. Member or Servicer shall act reasonably on behalf of an Association Obligor in such circumstances and Carrier may rely upon any actions taken or directions given by Member or Servicer as having been authorized by an Association Obligor.

28
| | | | | | | | |
| | |
[6.2.36] [U.S. Bank - Signatory Agreement.pdf] | | |
currency such judgment is rendered in (the "Judgment Currency"). If Carrier fails to pay a judgment as described in the preceding sentence, Carrier agrees to indemnify Member and Servicer against any loss incurred by Member or Servicer as a result of the rate of exchange at which any amount recovered against Carrier (by way of recoupment, setoff or otherwise) is converted to the Judgment Currency. The foregoing indemnity shall constitute a separate and independent obligation of Carrier and shall apply irrespective of any indulgence granted to Carrier from time to time and shall continue in full force and effect notwithstanding any such judgment or order as aforesaid. The term "rate of exchange" shall include any premiums and costs of exchange payable in connection with the purchase of, or conversion into, the relevant currency.
SECTION 28. WAIVER OF SOVEREIGN IMMUNITY.

| | |
[6.2.36] [U.S. Bank - Signatory Agreement.pdf] | | |
| | | | | |
| subject to adjustment as provided in Section 3 of this Exposure Protection Schedule. Member, Servicer or any Secured Party will hold the Deposit as security for the due and punctual payment of and performance by Carrier of the Obligations. |
| | | | | | | | |
| (b) | To the extent Carrier has or may at any time acquire any rights in Carrier's Rights, Carrier grants to each of Servicer, Member, and all other Secured Parties a Lien on the Deposit and all other Carrier's Rights to secure the payment and performance by Carrier of all Obligations. Each Secured Party shall act as agent for all Secured Parties to the extent that any such Secured Party controls or possesses the Deposit or any collateral hereunder or is named as Secured Party on any filing, registration or recording. Carrier hereby acknowledges that notwithstanding the foregoing grant of a Lien, Reserved Funds represent only a future right to payment owed to Carrier under the Agreement, payment of which is subject to the terms and conditions of the Agreement and to Carrier's complete and irrevocable fulfillment of its obligations and duties under the Agreement and do not constitute funds of Carrier. |
| | | | | | | | |
| (c) | Carrier further agrees that during the term of the Agreement, Carrier shall not grant, or attempt to grant, to any other Person or suffer to exist in favor of any other Person any Lien or other interest in Carrier's Rights (if any) or in any proceeds thereof unless any such Lien or other interest and the priority thereof are subject to a subordination agreement in favor of Member, Servicer and all other Secured Parties and reasonably satisfactory to Servicer. This prohibition against the granting of any liens does not include a prohibition against the granting of liens in Carrier's right to payment under this Agreement from Member or Servicer after Member or Servicer has setoff any amounts that may be owing from Carrier to Member or Servicer under this Agreement (a "Right to Payment") and Member and Servicer acknowledge that they have received notice that Carrier has granted a lien in its Right to Payment in favor of Goldman Sachs Credit Partners LP ("Goldman") and certain other lenders pursuant to that certain Security Agreement and Chattel Mortgage, dated as of July 25, 2005, between Carrier and Wells Fargo Bank Northwest, National Association, as collateral agent on behalf of Goldman (the "Goldman Lien") |
| | | | | | | | |
| (d) | Carrier hereby acknowledges that Member and Servicer dispute the existence of any interest of Carrier in any rights to payment from Cardholders or Card Issuers arising out of the Sales Records and further acknowledges that to the extent it may have an interest therein, such interest is subordinate to the interests of the Secured Parties and of any of their respective subrogees. |
| | | | | | | | |

| Schedule. Carrier will pay the reasonable costs and expenses of all filings and recordings, including taxes thereon or fees with respect thereto and all searches reasonably necessary or deemed necessary by Servicer, to establish and determine the validity and the priority of such security granted in favor of Servicer. Carrier hereby irrevocably appoints Servicer (and all persons, officers, employees or agents designated by Servicer), its agent and attorney-in-fact to do all such acts and things contemplated by this paragraph in the name of Carrier. Without limiting the foregoing, Carrier hereby authorizes Servicer to file one or more financing statements or continuation statements in respect hereof, and amendments thereto, relating to any part of the collateral described herein without the signature of Carrier. A carbon, photographic or other reproduction of the Agreement or of a financing statement shall be sufficient as a financing statement and may be filed in lieu of the original in any or all jurisdictions which accept such reproductions. |
| | | | | | | | |
| (a) | Servicer will use the Methodology described in Section 8 of this Exposure Protection Schedule (the "Methodology") to calculate Gross Exposure each Business Day. Carrier acknowledges that Servicer has explained to it and it understands Servicer's Methodology for determining Gross Exposure and the amount of the Aggregate Protection and hereby agrees to be bound by such Methodology and the determinations made by Servicer as a result thereof, absent manifest error. Among other things, Carrier understands that Gross Exposure includes the value of Travel Costs for goods or services sold to Cardholders who used their Cards to purchase such goods or services with respect to which Carrier has not yet provided such goods or services. Servicer and Carrier may change the Methodology by mutual agreement. |
| | | | | | | | |
| (b) | The amount of the Deposit shall be increased or decreased each Business Day, as appropriate, based on the Methodology so that the amount of the Aggregate Protection will at all times equal the Required Amount. Any necessary increases to the Deposit may be made, at Servicer's sole discretion by Member or Servicer withholding as Reserved Funds an amount up to [***] of amounts otherwise payable to Carrier under Section 6.2 of the MTOS until the amount of the Aggregate Protection is at least equal to the Required Amount, or by federal wire transfer of immediately available funds from Carrier to an account designated by Servicer, on the first (1st) Business Day after Carrier's receipt of notice from Servicer that an increase is required and the amount thereof. If the Servicer agrees to permit increases to the amount of the Deposit by wire transfer and the funds required to increase the amount of the Deposit so that the Aggregate Protection is equal to the Required Amount are not transferred to Servicer as required by this Section 3, Member or Servicer may immediately withhold on a daily basis as Reserved Funds an amount up to [***] of amounts otherwise payable to Carrier under Section 6.2 of the MTOS until the amount of the Aggregate Protection at least equals the Required Amount. Member or Servicer shall remit to Carrier from the Deposit the amount necessary to reduce the amount of the Aggregate Protection to equal the Required Amount on each Business Day in accordance with Section 6.2 of the MTOS. |

| | | | | | | | |
| (c) | The amount of the Deposit to be maintained hereunder may be reduced in accordance with Section 9 of this Exposure Protection Schedule pursuant to which Servicer accepts Letter of Credit in lieu of all or a portion of the Deposit so long as the Aggregate Protection equals the Required Amount. Similarly, Servicer shall accept a Letter of Credit meeting the terms contained herein in replacement of an existing Letter of Credit that is either (i) within 120 days of expiration or (ii) may, after the expiration of the appropriate time frame set forth in Section 9, be subject to a draw due to a downgrade of the bank that issued such Letter of Credit. |
| | | | | | | | |
| (d) | Although Servicer has the right at all times to require that the amount of the Aggregate Protection equal the Required Amount, Servicer may, from time to time, in its sole discretion make remittances to Carrier or release portions of any Letter of Credit such that the Aggregate Protection is less than the Required Amount. The duration of any such reduction is within the sole discretion of Servicer. At any time that the amount of the Aggregate Protection is less than the Required Amount Servicer, in its sole discretion, may again require that the amount of the Aggregate Protection equal the Required Amount. Any required increase may be made as provided in Section 3(b) of this Exposure Protection Schedule as determined by Servicer. Any reductions in the amount of the Aggregate Protection as described in this paragraph shall not be deemed a course of dealing nor give rise to any rights by Carrier in the future to require that the amount of the Aggregate Amount be less than the Required Amount. |
| | | | | | | | |
| (e) | If an event or series of events occurs that can reasonably be determined to have a materially positive effect on Carrier's present and prospective financial condition, then within ten days of each anniversary date of the Commencement Date Carrier may submit a written request to Servicer to review the Required Amount for consideration of a reduction in the percentage of Gross Exposure required to be maintained as the amount of the Aggregate Protection (a "Modification Request"). Servicer shall review the Modification Request and information presented by Carrier and attempt to respond to such request within thirty (30) days. Any determination of whether to agree to the Modification Request shall be made in the sole discretion of Servicer. If Servicer does not agree to the Modification Request, then Carrier shall have a period of fifteen (15) days from such response by Servicer to provide written notice to Servicer of Carrier's election to terminate the Agreement ninety days from the date Carrier's notice to terminate is delivered to Servicer. Carrier shall have no right to terminate the Agreement prior to its then current term (other than as a result of Servicer or Member's breach) if it fails to (i) deliver a Modification Request within the time frame stated in this Section or (ii) provide notice of termination as a result of a negative response by Servicer to a Modification Request within the time frame stated in this Section. |
Carrier acknowledges that (i) funds remitted to Member or Servicer by Carrier and (ii) funds paid by Card Associations and held by Member, Servicer or any Secured Party as the Deposit may be commingled with other funds of Member, Servicer or
(U.S. Transactions)

[6.2.36] [U.S. Bank - Signatory Agreement.pdf] | | |

such Secured Party, and further acknowledges that all such funds, and any investment of funds shall be in the name and control of Member, Servicer or such Secured Party, and Carrier shall have no interest in any securities, instruments or other contracts or any interest, dividends or other earnings accruing thereon or in connection therewith. It is the understanding of the Parties that, notwithstanding any other provision of the Agreement to the contrary, (a) the sole obligation of Member or Servicer with respect to the Deposit shall be the obligation to pay to Carrier amounts equal to the amounts attributable to Travel Costs with respect to which Carrier has provided goods or services net of any Obligations owed Carrier to any Secured Party, (b) such obligation to make payment to Carrier is at all times subject to the terms of the Agreement, and (c) such payment shall only be due and payable upon complete and irrevocable fulfillment by Carrier of all of its obligations and duties under the Agreement.
| | | | | | | | |
| (a) | To the extent permitted by applicable law or regulation, all amounts held as the Deposit will be deemed to earn a yield equal to the Applicable Rate. The amount so earned shall be credited to the Deposit. |
| | | | | |
6. | Right of Offset; Recoupment; Application |
At any time that an amount is due Member, Servicer or any other Secured Party from Carrier, and Member, Servicer or such other Secured Party does not obtain payment of such amount due as provided in the Agreement, Member or Servicer (each on behalf of itself and any other Secured Party) shall have the right to apply, recoup or set off any amounts otherwise owed by Member, Servicer or any other Secured Party to Carrier hereunder, including, without limitation, any amounts attributable to the Deposit, to the amount owed by Carrier. Servicer may exercise any such right for its benefit or the benefit of Member or any other Secured Party. Where any application, recoupment or set off requires the conversion of one currency into another, Servicer or Member shall be entitled to effect such conversion in accordance with its prevailing practice and Carrier shall bear all exchange risks, losses, commissions and other bank charges which may thereafter arise.
| | | | | |
7. | Retention of Deposit After Cessation |
Notwithstanding any other provision of the Agreement to the contrary, during the period not to exceed [***] months from the earlier of termination of this Agreement or the date upon which Carrier permanently ceases flight operations, Member and Servicer may retain the Deposit and Letters of Credit so that the Aggregate Protection at least equals the Required Amount on each day. As the Required Amount is reduced because Gross Exposure has been reduced, Servicer is obligated to remit sufficient funds from the Deposit and/or return the Letter of Credit to Carrier within two (2) business days of such determination so that the Aggregate
Protection does not exceed the Required Amount. Subject to the foregoing and the eighteen month time frame, Servicer shall continue to hold the Deposit and/or Letters of Credit until Servicer has determined that Carrier has no further Obligations or potential Obligations and Servicer shall be without any obligation to remit funds to Carrier until such time.

| (a) | The amount of the Aggregate Protection which Servicer or Member may maintain pursuant to this Exposure Protection Schedule shall include the sum of (a) the amount remaining to be drawn upon any valid and outstanding Letter of Credit and (b) the proceeds of any previous draw on a Letter of Credit held by Servicer or Member and not applied. At such time as the Servicer or Member may no longer draw on the Letters of Credit, Servicer may require that the amount of the Deposit plus proceeds of any draw on the Letters of Credit held by Servicer or Member and not applied equal the Required Amount. |
| | | | | | | | |
| (b) | Upon the occurrence of any event that gives rise to Servicer's right under this Agreement to make demand on Carrier for payment to Servicer or Member of any Obligations and after (i) application of all amounts held as part of the Deposit and (ii) application of all amounts that would otherwise be payable to Carrier from Member or Servicer under the Agreement on such date, if any, then the Servicer, at its option, may draw on any Letter of Credit issued for its benefit with respect to the Agreement to pay such Obligations in an amount that does not exceed the sum of (A) the amount the Servicer has a right to demand that the Carrier pay the Servicer or Member under this Agreement on such date plus (B) the amounts the Servicer reasonably believes it will have a right to demand that the Carrier pay the Servicer or Member as Obligations during the following seven day period. |
| | | | | | | | |
| (c) | Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 9 to the contrary, Servicer may draw upon the full amount of a Letter of Credit if sixty (60) days have passed since Servicer delivered written notice to Carrier that |

| | | | | |
| the rating of the bank that issued the Letter of Credit has fallen below (A) [***] under the Moody's Investors Service rating system or (B) [***] under the Standard and Poor's rating system, or (C) if ratings from either of those services are unavailable, the equivalent rating of any of the foregoing under any similar rating system. |
| | | | | | | | |
| (d) | Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 9 to the contrary, Servicer may draw upon the full amount of a Letter of Credit if (i) five (5) Business Days have passed since the rating of the bank that issued the Letter of Credit has fallen below (A) [***] under the Moody's Investors Service rating system or (B) [***] under the Standard and Poor's rating system, or (C) if ratings from either of those services are unavailable, the equivalent rating of any of the foregoing under any similar rating system, (ii) an Insolvency Proceeding is commenced by or against Carrier or (iii) the Letter of Credit is set to expire within 60 days and Servicer has not received notice of renewal of the Letter of Credit or an replacement letter of credit acceptable as to form and issuer in the sole discretion of Servicer. |
| | | | | | | | |
| (e) | Carrier acknowledges that subject to its right to receive payments under this Agreement, it has no interest in any proceeds of any draw on any Letter of Credit issued for the benefit of Servicer or Member and that upon any valid draw on any Letter of Credit, Servicer or Member shall be entitled to hold the proceeds thereof for payment of the Obligations under the Agreement and apply such proceeds in payment thereof as and when Servicer reasonably deems appropriate, subject to the provisions of Section 7 of this Exposure Protection Schedule. Neither Servicer nor Member shall have any obligation to remit to any Person any excess proceeds of any draw on any Letter of Credit until expiration of the period specified in Section 7 of this Exposure Protection Schedule. In the event of any dispute between Carrier and the issuer of a Letter of Credit or any subrogee thereof, or any other Person with respect to entitlement to any proceeds of a Letter of Credit, Servicer or Member may retain all such proceeds until final resolution of such dispute by a court of competent jurisdiction, subject to the right of Servicer or Member to retain and apply proceeds in payment of the Obligations. In the event that Servicer or Member draws on a Letter of Credit and holds the proceeds thereof at a time when Carrier is conducting normal flight operations, Servicer or Member, at its option, may include such proceeds in its calculation of coverage for the Required Amount and remittances to Carrier may be made in accordance with Section 2 of this Exposure Protection Schedule as if the proceeds were part of the Deposit. Carrier further agrees that at Servicer's option, any excess proceeds of a Letter of Credit, as determined by Servicer in good faith after taking into account all obligations of the Carrier to the Secured Parties, may be remitted to the issuer of a Letter of Credit, or if the issuer has been reimbursed in full for all amounts owed to it on account of the draw on the Letter of Credit, to the account party thereof. |
| | | | | | | | |
| (a) | The "Fare Club Exposure," as determined in accordance with this Section 10 shall be added to the calculation of Gross Exposure at all times; provided, |

| | | | | | | | |
| | |
[6.2.36] [U.S. Bank - Signatory Agreement.pdf] | | |
| | | | | |
| however, (i) the Fare Club Exposure will first be added to the calculation of Gross Exposure on the last Business Day of the first full month after the Commencement Date and (ii) the amount of the Fare Club Exposure will only be modified as of the last Business Day of each month. |
| | | | | | | | |
| (b) | The initial calculation of the Fare Club Exposure shall be based upon the assumption that (i) the Fare Club memberships are only for a [***] period and (ii) sales of Fare Club membership average [***] per month. |
| | | | | | | | |
| (c) | During the initial six month period beginning with the first full month after the Commencement Date, the following amounts shall constitute the Fare Club Exposure: |
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
| | | | | | | | | | | | |
Month No. | | 1 | | 2 | | 3 | | 4 | | 5 | | 6 |
Fare Club Exposure Amount | | [***] | | [***] | | [***] | | [***] | | [***] | | [***] |
| | | | | | | | |
| (d) | Within 10 days of the end of each month, Carrier shall provide Servicer with a report of its Fare Club membership sales for the preceding month made through the use of a Card (the "Fare Club Sales Report"). The first Fare Club Sales Report shall cover the first full calendar month after the Commencement Date. |
| | | | | | | | |
| (e) | At the conclusion of each six month period, Servicer shall complete a reconciliation between the actual Fare Club Exposure then held and the actual exposure based upon the Fare Club Sales Reports (the "Reconciled Exposure"). The actual exposure for determining the Reconciled Exposure shall be determined by taking the fare club sales for any particular month and reducing such amount by [***] of the original monthly sale amount in each month after such sale until the amount reaches zero, with the first [***] reduction occurring in the month the fare club sale occurs (the "Exposure Reduction Methodology"). Based upon such reconciliation, the amount of Fare Club Exposure will modified to be equal to the Reconciled Exposure. |
| | | | | | | | |
| (f) | During each successive six month period, the Fare Club Exposure will be determined by (i) using the most recent Reconciled Exposure and reducing such amount in each successive month in accordance with the Exposure Reduction Methodology and (ii) adding to the Fare Club Exposure each month an amount equal to the average monthly amount of fare club sales as determined by the most recent six Fare Club Sales Reports, but subtracting from the Fare Club Exposure an amount determined by applying the Exposure Reduction Methodology in succeeding months to the amounts added to the Fare Club Exposure. |
| | | | | | | | |
| (g) | Servicer reserves the right to modify the Fare Club Exposure to the extent that Carrier sells fare club memberships with a term longer than one year. Carrier may request that Servicer adjust the calculation of Fare Club Exposure if at any time more the 40% of the fare club memberships then outstanding, when originally sold, were for terms materially shorter than one year. |

FIRST AMENDMENT TO SIGNATORY AGREEMENT
THIS FIRST AMENDMENT TO SIGNATORY AGREEMENT (this "Amendment") is entered into as of January 18 , 2010, by and between Spirit Airlines, Inc., a company organized under the laws of the state of Delaware ("Carrier"), and U.S. Bank National Association ("Bank").
RECITALS
A. Bank and Carrier are parties to a Signatory Agreement (U.S. VISA and MasterCard Transactions) dated as of May 21, 2009 (as the same has been amended, restated or otherwise modified from time to time, the "Card Processing Agreement") pursuant to which Bank processes certain payments made to Carrier using Cards (as such term is defined in the Card Processing Agreement) bearing the servicemark of Visa International, Visa U.S.A. Inc. or MasterCard International Incorporated.
B. Carrier and Bank each desire to make certain changes to the Card Processing Agreement and have therefore agreed to enter into this amendment.
AGREEMENT
NOW, THEREFORE, for good and valuable consideration, the receipt and adequacy of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto hereby covenant and agree to be bound as follows:
Section 1. Capitalized Terms. Capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings assigned to them in the MTOS attached to the Card Processing Agreement, unless the context shall otherwise require.
Section 2. Amendments. The Card Processing Agreement is hereby amended to add a new Section 16 to the Signatory Agreement portion of the Card Processing Agreement to read as follows:
Section 16 Internet Debit Card Processing. Notwithstanding anything else contained in this Agreement, Carrier may submit for processing hereunder PIN-based Internet Transactions involving Debit Cards provided Bank has notified Carrier that Bank or its affiliates agrees to accept such Transactions. Cartier understands and agrees that Bank's ability to accept PIN-based Internet Debit Card Transactions under this Agreement is dependent upon Bank or its affiliate having agreements in place with certain third party vendors, such as Acculynk. Carrier acknowledges that even if Bank agrees to accept PIN-based Internet Debit Card Transactions, Bank may not be able to accept Transactions for Debit Cards on all the EFT Networks. Carrier may not submit any other PIN-based Debit Card Transactions under this Agreement other than PIN-based Internet Debit Card Transactions. If Bank can no longer process PIN-based Internet Debit Card Transactions because it does not have the required enforceable contracts with third party vendors, no such Transactions may be submitted hereunder. Bank shall not be deemed in breach of the Agreement or otherwise have any liability to Carrier as a result of its inability to process PIN-based Internet Debit Card Transactions due to the lack of the required contracts with third party vendors.

During any period in which Bank can accept PIN-based Internet Debit Card Transactions, the following additional terms shall apply:
16.1 Section 1 of the MTOS is hereby amended by adding the following definitions in the correct alphabetical order:
Credit Card Associations - Visa U.S.A. Inc., Visa International, Inc., MasterCard International Incorporated and any other national card association designated by Bank.
Debit Card - A card or device bearing the symbol(s) of one or more EFT Networks or Credit Card Associations, which may be used to purchase goods and services from Carrier and to pay the amount due to Carrier by an electronic debit to the Cardholder's designated deposit account.
EFT Networks - (i) Interlink Network, Inc., Maestro U.S.A., Inc., STAR Networks, Inc., NYCE Payments Network, LLC, PULSE Network LLC, ACCEL/Exchange Network, Alaska Option Services Corporation, Armed Forces Financial Network, Credit Union 24, Inc., NETS, Inc. and SHAZAM, Inc. and (ii) any other organization or association that hereinafter authorizes Bank or its affiliates to authorize, capture, and/or settle Transactions effected with Debit Cards, and any successor organization or association to any of the foregoing.
Internet PIN Pad - A secure program that displays and allow entry on an alphanumeric keyboard which conforms with the Operating Regulations and requirements established from time to time by Bank, and through which a Cardholder may enter a PIN.
PIN - A Personal Identification Number.
16.2 The definitions of "Card" and "Card Associations" contained in Section 1 of the MTOS are amended and restated in their entirety to read as follows:
Card - (i) Any card (other than a Debit Card) with respect to MasterCard International Incorporated, Visa U.S.A., Inc. or Visa International or other cards bearing the service mark of MasterCard International Inc., Visa U.S.A., Inc. or Visa International or any other national card association designated by Bank and (ii) any Debit Card.
Card Associations - The Credit Card Associations and the EFT Networks and any other card association that may in the future be designated by mutual agreement of Bank and Carrier.
16.3 Fees for PIN-based Internet Debit Card Transactions shall be based upon Debit Card Fee Schedule to the Agreement, attached as Exhibit A to the First Amendment to Signatory Agreement, and the Fee Schedule attached to the Agreement shall not apply to such PIN-based Internet Debit Card Transactions.
16.4 If requested by Bank or required by any EFT Network, Carrier shall prominently display the most current versions of the EFT Network's names, symbols, and/or service marks, as appropriate, on its Internet website and may display such
2
marks on promotional materials to inform the public that such Debit Cards will be honored by Carrier. Carrier's use of such marks must comply with the requirements of each mark's owner. Carrier's right to use or display such marks shall continue only long as the Agreement remains in effect and such right shall automatically terminate upon termination of the Agreement.
16.5 In submitting PIN-based Internet Debit Card Transactions to Bank, Carrier agrees as follows:
| | | | | | | | |
| a. | A Cardholder's Debit Card information and PIN are confidential. |
| | | | | | | | |
| b. | During the Transaction process, Carrier will employ an Internet PIN Pad with appropriate technology to maintain the confidentiality of the Cardholder's Debit Card information and PIN. |
| | | | | | | | |
| c. | Carrier shall use appropriate technology when initiating every Debit Card Transaction so as to prevent the unauthorized recording or disclosure of a Cardholder's PIN. |
| | | | | | | | |
| d. | Carrier shall require that each holder of a Debit Card enter his or her PIN on a Internet PIN Pad when initiating a PIN-based Internet Debit Card Transaction. |
16.6 Carrier shall support PIN-based Internet Debit Card Transactions for purchases and refunds, but may not support purchases with cashback or balance inquiries.
16.7 At the time of any PIN-based Internet Debit Card Transaction, Carrier shall make available for each Cardholder to print a Transaction receipt containing, at a Minimum, the following information:
| | | | | | | | | | | |
| • | | Amount of the Debit Card Transaction, |
| | | | | | | | | | | |
| • | | Date of the Debit Card Transaction, |
| | | | | | | | | | | |
| • | | Truncated Debit Card number or another account number or code that uniquely identifies the Cardholder, |
| | | | | | | | | | | |
| • | | Reference number or authorization number. |
16.8 Carrier may electronically perform a refund Transaction (if permitted by the applicable EFT Network) for a PIN-based Internet Debit Card Transaction only if original PIN-based Debit Card Transaction was initiated by Carrier.
16.9 When requested by any EFT Network, in its sole discretion, Carrier will immediately take action to: (i) eliminate any fraudulent or improper Transactions, (ii) suspend processing of PIN-based Internet Debit Card Transactions; or (iii) entirely discontinue acceptance of PIN-based Internet Debit Card Transactions.
16.10 Carrier understands that PIN-based Internet Debit Card Transactions conducted with a Internet PIN Pad are high risk and there is a significant risk that a Cardholder's PIN may be tracked or improperly disclosed if appropriate security technology is not employed with the Internet PIN Pad. Carrier understands that Bank
3
does not provide such security technology and that it is solely Carrier's responsibility to employ such technology. Carrier indemnifies Bank against any claims made by a holder of a Debit Card regarding the unauthorized disclosure of such Cardholder's PIN in any Transactions submitted to Bank for processing.
16.11 All PIN-based Internet Debit Card Transactions shall be included in the flight calendar under the Exposure Protection Schedule to the Agreement and otherwise included when determining Gross Exposure. Carrier shall be responsible for submitting to Bank the flight data information for each PIN-based Internet Debit Card Transaction necessary to allow Bank to include such Transactions in the Gross Exposure calculation.
16.12 Carrier recognizes that the rules for Chargebacks on PIN-based Internet Debit Card Transactions under the EFT Networks and applicable law may differ from the rules applicable to transactions under the Credit Card Associations and agrees that any rules contained under this Agreement applicable to Chargebacks shall be deemed modified to account for such differences under the EFT Networks and applicable law.
Section 3. Representations and Warranties of Carrier. Carrier hereby represents and warrants to Bank that on and as of the date hereof and after giving effect to this Amendment:
3.1 All of Carrier's representations and warranties contained in the Card Processing Agreement are true, correct and complete in all respects as of the date hereof as though made on and as of such date; provided, that references in Section 9.1(e) of the MTOS to financial statements shall be to the most recent financial statements of such type delivered to Bank by Carrier.
3.2 Carrier has the power and legal right and authority to enter into this Amendment and has duly authorized as appropriate the execution and delivery of this Amendment and none of the agreements contained herein contravene or constitute a default under any agreement, instrument or indenture to which the Carrier is a party or a signatory or a provision of Carrier's Certificate or Articles of Incorporation or, to the best of the Carrier's knowledge, any other agreement or requirement of law, or result in the imposition of any lien on any of its property under any agreement binding on or applicable to Carrier or any of its property except, if any, in favor of Bank.
3.3 Carrier is duly organized and in good standing under the laws of the state of its organization and is qualified to do business in each state where the nature of its activities or the character of its properties makes such qualification necessary or desirable and the failure to so qualify would have a material adverse effect on the assets or operations of Carrier.
3.4 Upon the effective date of this Amendment, this Amendment and the Card Processing Agreement, as supplemented and amended hereby, will constitute the legal, valid and binding obligations of Carrier enforceable in accordance with their terms, subject to applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium and other laws affecting the rights of creditors generally, and to the exercise of judicial discretion in accordance with general principles of equity.
4
Section 4. Representations and Warranties of Bank. Bank represents and warrants to Carrier that Bank has full and complete power and authority to enter into and perform under this Amendment and has obtained, and there remain in effect, all necessary licenses, resolutions and filings which are necessary for Bank to perform its obligations under this Amendment.
Section 5. Ratification of Agreement; Acknowledgment. Except as expressly modified under this Amendment, all of the terms, conditions, provisions, agreements, requirements, promises, obligations, duties, covenants and representations of Carrier and Bank, respectively, under the Card Processing Agreement are hereby ratified by Carrier and Bank, respectively. All references contained in the Card Processing Agreement and the Schedules thereto to "Agreement" shall mean the Card Processing Agreement as supplemented and amended hereby.
Section 6. Effective Date. This Amendment shall become effective upon execution and delivery to Bank of duly executed counterparts hereof by Bank and Carrier.
Section 7. Merger and Integration, Superseding Effect . This Amendment, from and after the date hereof, embodies the entire agreement and understanding between the parties hereto, and supersedes and has merged into it all prior oral and written agreements, on the same subjects by and between the parties hereto with the effect that this Amendment shall control with respect to the specific subjects hereof and thereof.
Section 8. Governing Law. This Amendment shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Minnesota.
Section 9. Counterparts. This Amendment may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which when so executed and delivered shall be deemed to be an original, and all of which counterparts of this Amendment when taken together, shall constitute one and the same instrument.
5
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have caused this Amendment to be executed as of the date and year first above written.

It is understood that, in the provisions below between the words QUOTE and UNQUOTE, capitalized terms have the meanings assigned thereto in this Agreement, except that (i) the term "Seller," which means the Manufacturer as between the Manufacturer and the Seller, also means the Manufacturer in this Agreement, and (ii) the term "Buyer," which means the Seller as between the Manufacturer and the Seller, means the Buyer in this Agreement.
QUOTE
Subject to the limitations and conditions hereinafter provided, and except as provided in Clause 12.1.2, the Seller warrants to the Buyer that each Aircraft and each Warranted Part will at the time of Delivery to the Buyer be free from defects:
| | | | | | | | |
| (ii) | in workmanship, including, without limitation, processes of manufacture, |
| | | | | | | | |
| (iii) | in design (including, without limitation, selection of materials) having regard to the state of the art at the date of such design, and |

| | | | |
Spirit Airlines - A320 FAMILY - PA | | | 31 | |
| | | | | | | | |
| (iv) | arising from failure to conform to the Specification, except as to those portions of the Specification that are expressly stated in the Specification to be estimates or approximations or design aims. |
| | | | | |
| For the purposes of this Agreement, the term "Warranted Part" will mean any Seller proprietary component, equipment, accessory or part, which is installed on an Aircraft at Delivery and (a) which is manufactured to the detail design of the Seller or a subcontractor of the Seller and (b) which bears a part number of the Seller at the time of Delivery. |
| | | | | |
| The warranties set forth in Clause 12.1.1 will not apply to Buyer Furnished Equipment, Propulsion Systems, or to any component, accessory, equipment or part purchased by the Buyer that is not a Warranted Part, provided, however, that: |
| | | | | | | | |
| (i) | any defect in the Seller's workmanship in respect of the installation of such items in the Aircraft, including any failure by the Seller to conform to the installation instructions of the manufacturers of such items that invalidates any applicable warranty from such manufacturers, will constitute a defect in workmanship for the purpose of this Clause 12.1 and be covered by the warranty set forth in Clause 12.1.1(ii), and |
| | | | | | | | |
| (ii) | any defect inherent in the Seller's design of the installation, considering the state of the art at the date of such design, that impairs the use of such items will constitute a defect in design for the purposes of this Clause 12.1 and be covered by the warranty set forth in Clause 12.1.1(iii). |
| | | | | |
| The warranties described in Clauses 12.1.1 and 12.1.2 hereinabove will be limited to those defects that become apparent within [***] after Delivery of the affected Aircraft, (the "Warranty Period"). |
| | | | | |
12.1.4 | Limitations of Warranty |
| | | | | |
12.1.4.1 | The Buyer's remedy and the Seller's obligation and liability under Clauses 12.1.1 and 12.1.2 hereinabove are limited to, at the Seller's expense and option, the repair, replacement or correction of, or the supply of modification kits rectifying the defect to any defective Warranted Part. However, the Seller may furnish a credit to the Buyer for the future purchase of goods and services (not including Aircraft) equal to the price at which the Buyer is then entitled to acquire a replacement for the defective Warranted Part. Unless otherwise agreed, any replacement part shall have no fewer cycles, hours, or less calendar time remaining or be of a lesser modification status than the replaced Warranted Part would have had in the absence of the relevant defect. |
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
| | | | |
Spirit Airlines - A320 FAMILY - PA | | | 32 | |
| | | | | |
12.1.4.2 | If the Seller corrects a defect covered by Clause 12.1.1(iii) that becomes apparent within the Warranty Period set forth in Clause 12.1.3, on the Buyer's written request the Seller will correct any such defect in any Aircraft that has not already been delivered to the Buyer. The Seller will not be responsible nor deemed to be in default on account of any reasonable delay in Delivery of any Aircraft or otherwise, in respect of performance of this Agreement, due to the Seller's undertaking to make such correction and, rather than accept a delay in Delivery of any such Aircraft, the Buyer and the Seller may agree to deliver such Aircraft with subsequent correction of the defect by the Buyer at the Seller's expense, or the Buyer may elect to accept Delivery and thereafter file a Warranty Claim as though the defect had become apparent immediately after Delivery of such Aircraft. The parties shall use all reasonable efforts to minimize any delays. |
| | | | | |
12.1.5.1 | In addition to the remedies set forth in Clauses 12.1.4.1 at the rates set forth in Clause 12.1.8(v) (b) and 12.1.4.2, the Seller will reimburse the direct labor costs spent by the Buyer in performing inspections of the Aircraft that are conducted: |

| | | | | | | | |
| | The In-house Warranty Labor Rate is subject to adjustment .annually by multiplying by the ratio ECIn/ECIb. For the purposes of this Clause 12.1.8(v) only, ECIn is equal to the Labor Index defined in the Seller Price Revision Formula hereto for January of the year in which the hours are spent and ECIb is equal to such Labor Index for January 2003. |
| | | | | | | | |
| (c) | Direct material costs are determined by the prices at which the Buyer acquired such material, excluding any parts and materials used for overhaul furnished free of charge by the Seller. |
The Buyer will in no event be credited for repair costs (labor and material) for any Warranted Part exceeding [***] of the Seller's current catalog price for a replacement of such defective Warranted Part or (exceeding those costs that would have resulted if repairs had been carried out at the Seller's facilities.
The Seller will substantiate these costs in writing on reasonable request by the Buyer.
The Buyer may, with the agreement of the Seller's Resident Customer Support Representative, scrap any such defective parts that are beyond economic repair and not required for technical evaluation.
If the Buyer does not obtain the agreement of the Seller's Resident Customer Support Representative to scrap a Warranted Part defective beyond economic repair, then the Buyer will retain such Warranted Part and any defective part removed from a Warranted Part during repair for a period of either [***] after the date of completion of repair or [***] after submission of a claim for In-house Warranty credit relating thereto, whichever is longer. Such parts will be returned to the Seller at Seller's cost within [***] of receipt of the Seller's request to that effect.
Scrapped Warranted Parts will be evidenced by a record of scrapped material certified by an authorized representative of the Buyer, which will be kept in the Buyer's file for the longer of (i) the duration of the Warranty Period or (ii) the period required under the applicable regulations of the Aviation Authority.

5.2 | Substitution of Indexes for Airframe Price Revision Formula |
If;
| | | | | | | | |

| | | | | | | | |
| (ii) | the United States Department of Labor discontinues, either temporarily or permanently, such Labor Index or such Material Index, or |
| | | | | | | | |
| (iii) | the data samples used to calculate such Labor Index or such Material Index are substantially changed; |
AVSA will select a substitute index for inclusion in the Airframe Price Revision Formula (the "Substitute Index").
The Substitute Index will reflect as closely as possible the actual variance of the labor costs or of the material costs used in the calculation of the original Labor Index or Material Index, as the case may be.
As a result of the selection of the Substitute Index, AVSA will make an appropriate adjustment to the Airframe Price Revision Formula to combine the successive utilization of the original Labor Index or Material Index (as the case may be) and of the Substitute Index.

Appropriate revision of the formula will be made to accomplish this result.
Should the above escalation provisions become null and void by action of the US Government, the price will be adjusted due to increases in the costs of labor and material which have occurred from the period represented by the applicable Reference

The Lease Term will not exceed thirty (30) days, unless extended by written agreement between Lessor and Lessee within such thirty (30)-day period (no one such extension to exceed an additional thirty (30) days). Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Lease Term will end in the event, and upon the date, of exercise of the Lessee's option to either purchase or exchange the Leased Part, as provided herein.
| | | | | |
12.4 | Lease Charges and Taxes |
The Lessee will pay the Lessor (a) [***], (b) any reasonable additional costs which may be incurred by the Lessor as a direct result of such Lease, such as inspection, test, repair, and repacking costs as required to place the Leased Part in satisfactory condition for Lease to a subsequent customer, (c) all transportation and insurance charges and (d) any taxes, charges or customs duties imposed upon the Lessor or its property as a result of the lease, sale, delivery, storage or transfer of any Leased Part (the "Lease Charges"). All payments due hereunder will be made in accordance with Paragraph 6 of this Letter Agreement 1.
| | | | | | | | |
| | |
Spirit Airlines - A320 Family Aircraft | | LA1-22 |
In the event that the Leased Part has not been returned to the Lessor's designated facilities within the time period provided in Paragraph 12.3 above, the Lessor will be entitled, in addition to any other remedy it may have at law or under this Paragraph 12, to charge to the Lessee, and the Lessee will pay, the charges referred to in this Paragraph 12.4 accruing for each day after the end of the Lease Term and for as long as such Leased Part is not returned to the Lessor and as though the Lease Term were extended to the period of such delay.
Title to each Leased Part will remain with the Lessor at all times unless the Lessee exercises its option to purchase it in accordance with Paragraph 12.8 of this Letter Agreement 1, in which case title will pass to the Lessee in accordance with Paragraph 7 of this Letter Agreement 1.
Except for normal wear and tear, each Leased Part will be returned to the Lessor in the same condition as when delivered to the Lessee. The Lessee will not without the Lessor's prior written consent, modify or alter any Leased Part. Risk of loss or damage to each Leased Part will remain with the Lessee until such Leased Part is redelivered to the Lessor at the return location specified in the applicable Lease. If a Leased Part is lost or damaged beyond repair, the Lessee will be deemed to have exercised its option to purchase the part in accordance with Paragraph 12.8 of this Letter Agreement 1, as of the date of such loss or damage.
| | | | | |
12.7 | Record of Flight Hours |
All flight hours accumulated by the Lessee on each Leased Part during the Lease Term will be documented by the Lessee. Records will be delivered to the Lessor upon return of such Leased Part to the Lessor. In addition, all documentation pertinent to inspection, maintenance and/or rework of the Leased Part as maintained serviceable in accordance with the standards of the Lessor will be delivered to the Lessor upon return of the Leased Part to the Lessor on termination of the Lease.
| | | | | | | | |
| | |
Spirit Airlines - A320 Family Aircraft | | LA1-23 |
Such documentation will include but not be limited to evidence of incidents such as hard landings, abnormalities of operation and corrective action taken by the Lessee as a result of such incidents.
The Lessee may at its option, exercisable by written notice given to the Lessor, elect during or at the end of the Lease Term to purchase the Leased Part, in which case the then current purchase price for such Leased Part as set forth in the Seller's Spare Parts Price List will be paid by the Lessee to the Lessor. The immediately preceding sentence will apply to new Leased Parts only. In the event the Leased Part is used, [***] of the then current catalog price for the new part with a part number corresponding to such Leased Part will be paid by the Lessee to the Lessor. Such option will be contingent upon the Lessee providing the Lessor with evidence satisfactory to the Lessor that the original part fitted to the Aircraft is beyond economical repair. Should the Lessee exercise such option, [***] of the Lease rental charges already invoiced pursuant to Paragraph 12.4(a) will be credited to the Lessee against the said purchase price of the Leased Part.
In the event that the removed part is beyond economic repair and the Leased Part is a used part, the Buyer may elect to order a new part from the Seller and continue to lease the Leased Part under the conditions of Paragraph 12.4 until such time as the new part is delivered. The purchase price of the new part will be discounted by [***] of the lease charges paid in respect of the Leased Part. Should the Lessee fail to return the Leased Part to the Lessor at the end of the Lease Term, such failure will be deemed to be an election by the Lessee to purchase the Leased Part.
| | | | | |
12.8.2 | In the event of purchase, the Leased Part will be warranted in accordance with Paragraph 11 of this Letter Agreement 1 as though such Leased Part were a Seller Part; provided, however, that (i) the Seller will prorate the full Warranty Period granted to the Buyer according to the actual usage of such Leased Part and (ii) in no event will such Warranty period be less than [***] from the date of purchase of such Leased Part. A warranty granted under this Paragraph 12.8.2 will be in substitution for the warranty granted under Paragraph 12.9 at the commencement of the Lease Term. |

Except as set forth in this Clause 7, the Seller will not be required to obtain any certificate or approval with respect to the Aircraft.
The Aircraft have been type certificated under EASA procedures for joint certification in the transport category. The Seller will obtain or cause to be obtained an FAA type certificate (the "Type Certificate") to allow the issuance of the Export Certificate of Airworthiness.
| | | | | |
7.2 | Export Certificate of Airworthiness |
Subject to the provisions of Clause 7.3, each Aircraft will be delivered to the Buyer with an Export Certificate of Airworthiness issued by the DGAC, or the LBA, as applicable, and in a condition enabling the Buyer (or an eligible person under then applicable law) to obtain immediately and without repair, maintenance or modification at the time of Delivery a Standard Airworthiness Certificate issued pursuant to Part 21 of the US Federal Aviation Regulations. [***] However, the Seller will have no obligation, whether before, at or after Delivery of any Aircraft, to make any alterations (including all related costs) to such Aircraft to enable such Aircraft to meet FAA or U.S. Department of Transportation requirements for specific operation on the Buyer's routes, except as may be provided for in this Agreement.
If the FAA requires a modification to comply with additional aircraft import requirements and/or supply of additional data before the issuance of the Export Certificate of Airworthiness, the parties hereto will sign an SCN for such modification which, the Seller will incorporate as specified in such modification and/or the Seller will provide such data, in either case, at costs to be borne by the Buyer.
| | | | | |
7.3 | Specification Changes Before Delivery |
| | | | | |
7.3.1 | If, any time before the date on which the Aircraft is Ready for Delivery, any law, rule or regulation is enacted, promulgated, becomes effective and/or an interpretation of any law, rule or regulation is issued by the EASA that requires any change to the Specification for the purposes of obtaining the Export Certificate of Airworthiness (a "Change in Law"), the Seller will make the required modification and the parties hereto will sign an SCN. |
| | | | | | | | |
| | |
Spirit Airlines - A320 Family Aircraft | | LA11-3 |

7.3.2 | The Seller will as far as practicable, but at its sole discretion, take into account the information available to it concerning any proposed law, rule or regulation or interpretation that could become a Change in Law, in order to minimize the costs of changes to the Specification as a result of such proposed law, regulation or interpretation becoming effective. |
| | | | | |
7.3.4 | Notwithstanding the provisions of Clauses 7.3.3, if a Change in Law relates to an item of BFE or to the Propulsion Systems (and, in particular, to engine accessories, quick engine change units or thrust reversers) the costs will be borne in accordance with such arrangements as may be made separately between the Buyer and the manufacturer of the BFE or the Propulsion Systems, as applicable, and the Seller will have no obligation with respect thereto. |
| | | | | | | | |
| | |
Spirit Airlines - A320 Family Aircraft | | LA11-4 |
| | | | | |
7.4 | Specification Changes After Delivery |
Nothing in Clause 7.3 will require the Seller to make any changes or modifications to, or to make any payments or take any other action with respect to, any Aircraft that is Ready for Delivery before the compliance date of any law or regulation referred to in Clause 7.3. Any such changes or modifications made to an Aircraft after it is Ready for Delivery will be at the Buyer's expense.

APPENDIX 1
18 Buyer Furnished Equipment
18.1 Administration
| | | | | |
| |
18.1.1.1 | In accordance with the Specification, the Seller shall install those items of equipment that are identified in the Specification as being furnished by the Buyer ("Buyer Furnished Equipment" or "BFE"), provided that the BFE and the supplier of such BFE (the "BFE Supplier") are referred to in the Airbus BFE Product Catalog valid at the time the BFE Supplier is selected. |
| | | | | |
| |
18.1.1.2 | Notwithstanding the foregoing and without prejudice to Clause 2.4, if the Buyer wishes to install BFE manufactured by a supplier who is not referred to in the Airbus BFE Product Catalog, the Buyer shall so inform the Seller and the Seller shall conduct a feasibility study of the Buyer's request, in order to consider approving such supplier, provided that such request is compatible with the Seller's industrial planning and the associated Scheduled Delivery Month for the Buyer's Aircraft. In addition, it is a prerequisite to such approval that the considered supplier be qualified by the Seller's Aviation Authorities to produce equipment for installation on civil aircraft. Any approval of a supplier by the Seller shall be performed at the Buyer's expense. The Buyer shall cause any BFE supplier approved under this Clause 18.1.1.2 (each an "Approved BFE Supplier") to comply with the conditions set forth in this Clause 18 and specifically Clause 18.2. |
Except for the specific purposes of this Clause 18.1.1.2, the term "BFE Supplier" shall be deemed to include Approved BFE Suppliers.
| | | | | |
| |
18.1.2.1 | The Seller shall advise the Buyer of the dates by which, in the planned release of engineering for the Aircraft, the Seller requires a written detailed engineering definition, encompassing a Declaration of Design and Performance (the "BFE Engineering Definition"). The Seller shall provide to the Buyer and/or the BFE Supplier(s), within an appropriate timeframe, the necessary interface documentation to enable the development of the BFE Engineering Definition. |
The BFE Engineering Definition shall include the description of the dimensions and weight of BFE, the information related to its certification and the information necessary for the installation and operation thereof, including when applicable 3D models compatible with the Seller's systems. The Buyer shall furnish, or cause the BFE Suppliers to furnish, the BFE Engineering Definition by the dates specified.
Thereafter, the BFE Engineering Definition shall not be revised, except through an SCN executed in accordance with Clause 2.
APPENDIX 1
| | | | | |
| |
18.1.2.2 | The Seller shall also provide in due time to the Buyer a schedule of dates and the shipping addresses for delivery of the BFE and, where requested by the Seller, additional spare BFE to permit installation in the Aircraft and Delivery of the Aircraft in accordance with the Aircraft delivery schedule. The Buyer shall provide, or cause the BFE Suppliers to provide, the BFE by such dates in a serviceable condition, in order to allow performance of any assembly, installation, test or acceptance process in accordance with the Seller's industrial schedule. In order to facilitate the follow-up of the timely receipt of BFE, the Buyer shall, upon the Seller's request, provide to the Seller dates and references of all BFE purchase orders placed by the Buyer. |
The Buyer shall also provide, when requested by the Seller, at Airbus Operations S.A.S. works in Toulouse, France, at Airbus Operations GmbH Works in Hamburg, Germany and/or the Airbus Americas Inc. facility in Mobile, Alabama, as applicable, adequate field service including support from BFE suppliers to act in a technical advisory capacity to the Seller in the installation, calibration and possible repair of any BFE.
| | | | | |
| |
18.1.3 | Without prejudice to the Buyer's obligations hereunder, in order to facilitate the development of the BFE Engineering Definition, the Seller shall organize meetings between the Buyer and BFE Suppliers. The Buyer hereby agrees to participate in such meetings and to provide adequate technical and engineering expertise to reach decisions within the defined timeframe. |
In addition, throughout the development phase and up to Delivery of the Aircraft to the Buyer, the Buyer agrees:
| | | | | |
| |
• | to monitor the BFE Suppliers and ensure that they shall enable the Buyer to fulfil its obligations, including but not limited to those set forth in the Customization Milestone Chart; |
| | | | | |
| |
• | that, should a timeframe, quality or other type of risk be identified at a given BFE Supplier, the Buyer shall allocate resources to such BFE Supplier so as not to jeopardize the industrial schedule of the Aircraft; |
| | | | | |
| |
• | for major BFE, including, but not being limited to, seats, galleys and IFE ("Major BFE") to participate on a mandatory basis in the specific meetings that take place between BFE Supplier selection and BFE delivery, namely: |
| | | | | |
| |
◦ | Preliminary Design Review ("PDR"), |
| | | | | |
| |
◦ | Critical Design Review ("CDR"); |
| | | | | |
| |
• | to attend the First Article Inspection ("FAI") for the first shipset of all Major BFE. Should the Buyer not attend such FAI, the Buyer shall delegate the FAI |
APPENDIX 1
to the BFE Supplier and confirmation thereof shall be supplied to the Seller in writing;
| | | | | |
| |
• | to attend the Source Inspection ("SI") that takes place at the BFE Supplier's premises prior to shipping, for each shipset of all Major BFE. Should the Buyer not attend such SI, the Buyer shall delegate the SI to the BFE Supplier and confirmation thereof shall be brought to the Seller in writing. Should the Buyer not attend the SI, the Buyer shall be deemed to have accepted the conclusions of the BFE Supplier with respect to such SI. |
The Seller shall be entitled to attend the PDR, the CDR and the FAI. In doing so, the Seller's employees shall be acting in an advisory capacity only and at no time shall they be deemed to be acting as Buyer's employees or agents, either directly or indirectly.
18.1.4.1 The BFE shall be imported into FRANCE or into GERMANY by the Buyer under a suspensive customs system ("Régime de l'entrepôt douanier ou régime de perfectionnement actif " or "Zollverschluss") without application of any French or German tax or customs duty, and shall be Delivered At Place (DAP) according to the Incoterms, to the following shipping addresses:
AIRBUS OPERATIONS S.A.S.
316 Route de Bayonne
31300 TOULOUSE
FRANCE
or

21129 HAMBURG
GERMANY
or such other location as may be specified by the Seller.
18.1.4.2 BFE delivered to the Seller's Affiliate in Mobile, Alabama, as may be specified by the Seller pursuant to Clause 18.1.4.1, will be shipped according to the Incoterms 2010 "Delivered Duty Paid" Airbus Americas, Inc., Mobile, Alabama.
| | | | | |
| |
18.1.5 | If the Buyer requests the Seller to supply directly certain items that are considered BFE according to the Specification, and if such request is notified to the Seller in due time in order not to affect the delivery date of the Aircraft, the Seller will agree to order such items subject to the execution of an SCN reflecting the effect on price, escalation adjustment, and any other conditions of the Agreement including a handling charge in the amount of [***] of the cost of the BFE item for any items up |
APPENDIX 1
to [***]. If the cost of the BFE item exceeds [***] the Buyer and the Seller will execute an SCN reflecting the cost of such BFE and a handling charge to be mutually agreed upon execution of such SCN. The Seller will bear no liability in respect of delay and product support commitments for such items.
18.2 Requirements
The Buyer is responsible for ensuring, at its expense, and warrants that the BFE shall:
| | | | | |
| |
• | be manufactured by a qualified BFE Supplier, and |
| | | | | |
| |
• | meet the requirements of the applicable Specification of the Aircraft, and |
| | | | | |
| |
• | be delivered with the relevant certification documentation, including but not limited to the DDP, and |
| | | | | |
| |
• | comply with the BFE Engineering Definition, and |
| | | | | |
| |
• | comply with applicable requirements incorporated by reference to the Type Certificate and listed in the Type Certificate Data Sheet, and |
| | | | | |
| |
• | be approved by the Aviation Authority issuing the Export Airworthiness Certificate and by the Buyer's Aviation Authority for installation and use on the Aircraft at the time of Delivery of the Aircraft, and |
| | | | | |
| |
• | not infringe any patent, copyright or other intellectual property right of the Seller or any third party, and |
| | | | | |
| |
• | not be subject to any legal obligation or other encumbrance that may prevent, hinder or delay the installation of the BFE in the Aircraft and/or the Delivery of the Aircraft. |
The Seller shall be entitled to refuse any item of BFE that it considers incompatible with the Specification, the BFE Engineering Definition or the certification requirements.
18.3 Buyer's Obligation and Seller's Remedies
18.3.1 Any delay or failure in
(i) furnishing the BFE in serviceable condition at the requested delivery date,
| | | | | |
| |
(ii) | complying with Clause 18.2 or in providing the descriptive information or service representatives required by Clause 18.1.1, or |
APPENDIX 1
| | | | | |
| |
(iii) | obtaining any required approval for such equipment under the Aviation Authorities' regulations |
may delay the performance of any act to be performed by the Seller, and cause the Final Contract Price of the Aircraft to be adjusted in accordance with the updated delivery schedule and the provisions of Clause 10. The additional costs the Seller incurs that are attributable in any material degree to such delay for storage, taxes, insurance and out of sequence installation shall be for the Buyer's account. The Seller shall use its reasonable efforts to minimize or mitigate such delay.
| | | | | |
| |
18.3.2 | The Buyer will use reasonable commercial efforts to monitor the manufacturing, inspection and timely availability of BFE to meet the Seller's delivery requirements. |
| | | | | |
| |
(i) | if the Buyer discovers that the BFE delivery program is behind schedule and determines in conjunction with the BFE manufacturer that the Seller's delivery requirements cannot be met, the Buyer will, without delay, notify the Seller of the situation and of the expected delivery dates. The Buyer and Seller will mutually agree on a plan to minimize any additional costs for changes to the Seller's production program to accommodate the delay in BFE delivery. Any such additional costs will be borne by the Buyer. |
| | | | | |
| |
(ii) | provided such delay is in excess of [***] and a mutual agreement with respect to a recovery plan referred to in (i) above has not been reached, in addition to the consequences outlined in Clause 18.3.1, in the event of a delay or failure described in 18.3.1, the Seller, using reasonable efforts to mitigate cost, may select, purchase and install equipment similar to the BFE at issue, in which event the Final Contract Price of the affected Aircraft will also be increased by the actual purchase price of such equipment, plus handling charge in the amount of [***] of the purchase price of the BFE item and the cost of transportation, insurance, packaging and, if required and not already provided for in the price of the Aircraft, for inspection, acceptance, adjustment and calibration; or |
| | | | | |
| |
(iii) | if the BFE is delayed more than [***] beyond, or unapproved within, [***] of the date referenced in Clause 18.1.1, then the Seller may deliver or the Buyer may elect to have the Aircraft delivered without the installation of such BFE, notwithstanding the terms of Clause 7.2 insofar as it may otherwise have applied, whereon the Seller will be relieved of all obligations to install such equipment. |
18.4 Title and Risk of Loss
Title to and risk of loss of BFE will at all times remain with the Buyer, except that risk of loss (limited to cost of replacement of said BFE and excluding in particular

APPENDIX 1
loss of use) will be with the Seller for as long as the BFE is in the care, custody and control of the Seller.
18.5 Disposition of BFE Following Termination
| | | | | |
| |
18.5.1 | If a termination of this Agreement pursuant to the provisions of Clause 21 hereof occurs with respect to an Aircraft in which all or any part of the BFE has been installed prior to the date of such termination, the Seller will be entitled, but not required, to remove all items of BFE which can be removed without damage to the Aircraft and to undertake commercially reasonable efforts to facilitate the sale of such items of BFE to other customers, retaining and applying the proceeds of such sales to reduce Seller's damages resulting from the termination. |
| | | | | |
| |
18.5.2 | The Buyer will cooperate with the Seller in facilitating the sale of BFE pursuant to Clause 18.5.1 above and will be responsible for all reasonable costs incurred by the Seller in removing and facilitating the sale of such BFE. The Buyer will reimburse the Seller for all such reasonable costs within [***] of receiving documentation substantiating such costs from the Seller. |
| | | | | |
| |
18.5.3 | The Seller will notify the Buyer as to those items of BFE not sold by the Seller pursuant to Clause 18.5.1 above and, at the Seller's request, the Buyer will undertake to remove such items from the Seller' facility within [***] of the date of such notice. The Buyer will have no claim against the Seller for damage or destruction of any item of BFE removed from the Aircraft and not removed from Seller's facility within such period. |
| | | | | |
| |
18.5.4 | The Buyer will have no claim against the Seller for damage to or destruction of any item of BFE damaged or destroyed in the process of being deinstalled from the Aircraft, provided that the Seller shall have used reasonable care in such deinstallation. |
| | | | | |
| |
18.5.5 | The Buyer at no cost to the Seller will grant title to the Seller for any BFE items that cannot be removed from the Aircraft without causing damage to the Aircraft or rendering any system in the Aircraft unusable. |
| | | | | |
| |
18.5.6 | If the termination was not a result of an Excusable Delay attributable to the Buyer or a Buyer Termination Event, the Seller shall pay the Buyer for the cost of such BFE. |
