PAYMENT/ TCP^® HOURLY RATE ADJUSTMENT

7.1

During the term of this Agreement, Customer shall (further to paragraph 10.13) pay monthly an amount calculated by multiplying the total Engine Operating Hours of the Fleet for the month by the Hourly Rate.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, charges which are in good faith dispute in accordance with Section 7.7 hereof will only be paid upon resolution of such dispute.

7.3

For all late payments, Customer shall be liable for interest at a rate of 8% per annum or the U.S. prime rate plus five percent (5%), whichever is greater, without exceeding the maximum rate allowed per applicable law. In addition, Customer shall reimburse P&WC for all attorneys’ fees and other expenses incurred by P&WC in recovering any sums due from Customer.

7.4

Mid-Life\Overhaul Conversion. From time to time P&WC may accommodate the Customer to convert a scheduled mid-life event to an Overhaul event (the “Overhaul Option”), provided that:

Customer notifies P&WC of its exercise of the Overhaul Option prior to the shipment of the Engine to P&WC;

•

Customer is not in material default of its obligations under this Agreement; and

•

P&WC accepts Customer’s exercise of the Overhaul Option.

HOURLY RATE ADJUSTMENT

9.1

The Hourly Rate is based on the Fleet described in Annex A and on the Customer’s Profile represented and warranted by the Customer as described in Annex F herein. Any material modifications to Customer’s Profile or changes in its geographical or operating environment must be immediately reported to P&WC and may result in an Hourly Rate adjustment. Any Fleet Changes (as defined below) must also be immediately reported to P&WC and may result in an Hourly Rate adjustment, in the manner contemplated herein below. Subject to the following sentence, P&WC also reserves the right to adjust the Hourly Rate in circumstances where Customer does not adhere to the Engine maintenance conditions set forth in Annex E or is otherwise in default under this Agreement. Any Hourly Rate adjustment proposal made by P&WC as a result of default of Customer pursuant to the terms of this Agreement (which proposal shall include the calculations of such adjustment in sufficient details to enable Customer to make an informed decision with respect thereto) shall have to be agreed upon by Customer before it can take effect. If Customer refuses any such proposal for an Hourly Rate adjustment or is deemed to have refused by not replying to any such proposal within 10 days of its receipt, the Parties shall diligently deploy commercially reasonable efforts to establish a mutually agreeable alternative to the proposed Hourly Rate adjustment within 30 days of Customer’s refusal or deemed refusal thereof, failing which P&WC shall have the right to terminate this Agreement as per the provisions of Section 15.1.

9.2

Fleet Changes. The Hourly Rate shall, from time to time, be adjusted in the event that Engines are added to or removed from the Fleet (“Fleet Change(s)”), independent of any changes to the Customer’s Mission Profile as described in Annex F.

9.3

Addition of Engines. The calculation of the adjustment for adding Engines shall be based on the following formula:

A + B

(C – D)+E

where,

A =

Forecasted increase of expenses related to Engine Maintenance Services attributable to Fleet Changes;

B =
