Scheduling Flights. Lessor shall have final authority over the scheduling of the Aircraft. Lessor shall be responsible for the physical and technical operation of the aircraft and the safe performance of all flights and shall retain full authority and control, including exclusive operational control, and possession of the Aircraft at all times during the Term of this Agreement. 6.

The parties further agree that Lessor shall not be liable for delay or failure to furnish the Aircraft and crew pursuant to this Agreement for any reason whatsoever, including, without limitation, when {00052851 5 } 2
