7. Corrections Performed by Customer or Its Authorized Agent.

7.1 Facilities Requirements.

7.2 Technical Requirements. All Corrections done by Customer, its Authorized Agent or a third party contractor must be performed in accordance with Boeing’s applicable service manuals, bulletins or other written instructions provided in advance by Boeing to Customer, using parts and materials furnished or approved by Boeing.

7.3 Reimbursement.

7.4 Disposition of Defective Boeing Products Beyond Economical Repair.

7.4.1 A defective Boeing Product found to be beyond economical repair (see Article 4.5, Maximum Reimbursement) will be retained for a period of 60 days from the date Boeing receives Customer’s claim. During the 60 day period, Boeing may request return of such Boeing Products at Boeing’s expense for inspection and confirmation of a defect.

7.4.2 After the 60 day period, a defective Boeing Product with a value of U.S. $2000 or less may be scrapped without notification to Boeing. If such Boeing Product has a value greater than U.S. $2000, Customer must obtain confirmation of unrepairability by Boeing’s on-site Customer Services Representative prior to scrapping. Confirmation may be in the form of the Representative’s signature on Customer’s claim or through direct communication between the Representative and Boeing Warranty.

8. Corrections Performed by Boeing.

8.1 Freight Charges. Customer or its Authorized Agent will pay shipping charges to return a Boeing Product to Boeing. Boeing will promptly reimburse Customer or its Authorized Agent for such shipping charges for any item determined to be defective under this Aircraft General Terms Agreement. Boeing will pay shipping charges to return the Corrected Boeing Product.

8.2 Customer Instructions. The documentation shipped with the returned defective Boeing Product may include specific technical instructions for additional work to be performed on the Boeing Product ***. The absence of such instructions will evidence Customer’s authorization for Boeing to perform all reasonably necessary Corrections and work required to return the Boeing Product to a serviceable condition.

8.3 Correction Time Objectives.

8.3.1 Boeing’s objective for making Corrections is 10 working days for avionics and electronic Boeing Products, 30 working days for Corrections of other Boeing Products performed at Boeing’s facilities, and 40 working days for Corrections of other Boeing Products performed at a Boeing subcontractor’s facilities. The objectives are measured from the date Boeing receives the defective Boeing Product and a valid claim to the date Boeing ships the Corrected Boeing Product to Customer.

8.3.2 If Customer has a critical parts shortage because Boeing has exceeded or believes it will exceed a Correction time objective and Customer has procured spare Boeing Products for the defective Boeing Product in quantities shown in Boeing’s Recommended Spare Parts List (RSPL) or Spares Planning and Requirements Evaluation Model (M-SPARE), then Boeing will either expedite the Correction or provide an interchangeable Boeing Product on a no charge loan or lease basis until the Corrected Boeing Product is returned.

8.4 Title Transfer and Risk of Loss.

8.4.1 Title to and risk of loss of any Boeing Product returned to Boeing will at all times remain with Customer or any other title holder of such Boeing Product. While Boeing has possession of the returned Boeing Product, Boeing will have only such liabilities as a bailee for mutual benefit would have, but will not be liable for loss of use.

8.4.2 If a Correction requires shipment of a new Boeing Product, then at the time Boeing ships the new Boeing Product, title to and risk of loss for the returned Boeing Product will pass to Boeing, and title to and risk of loss for the new Boeing Product will pass to Customer.

9. Returning an Aircraft.

9.1 Conditions. An aircraft may be returned to Boeing’s facilities for Correction if:

(i)

Boeing and Customer agree a covered defect exists;

(ii)

Customer lacks access to adequate facilities, equipment or qualified personnel to perform the Correction; and

(iii)

it is not practical, in Boeing’s estimation, to dispatch Boeing personnel to perform the Correction at a remote site.

9.2 Correction Costs. Boeing will perform the Correction at no charge to Customer. Subject to the conditions of Article 9.1, Boeing will promptly reimburse Customer for the costs of fuel, oil and landing fees incurred in ferrying the aircraft to Boeing and back to Customer’s facilities. Customer will, to the extent reasonably practicable, minimize the length of both flights.

9.3 Separate Agreement. Boeing and Customer will enter into a separate agreement covering return of the aircraft and performance of the Correction. Boeing will perform additional work that is not part of the Correction only to the extent authorized in advance by Customer to do so; provided that if Boeing requests authorization to perform additional work that is not part of the Correction but if not performed would prevent the departure of the aircraft from Boeing’s facility, Boeing may proceed to perform such work if such requested authorization has not been received within 24 hours of such request.

2-7

10. Insurance.

The provisions of Article 8.2 “Insurance”, of this AGTA, will apply to any work performed by Boeing in accordance with Customer’s specific technical instructions, to the extent any legal liability of Boeing is based upon the content of such instructions.
