ARTICLE 6 – INVOICING AND PAYMENT

6.1    Rate Per EFH Payments. By the tenth (10th) of each month, Customer will provide to GE the flight hours and cycles flown by each Engine serial number since delivery from manufacturer. The Current Rate Per EFH, multiplied by the total EFH for each Engine elapsed in the prior month, will be provided to Customer in the monthly invoice no later than the fifteenth (15th) of the month. Customer will make payment within thirty (30) Days from the date of the invoice receipt, subject to the rest of this Article 6.

Concurrently, GE and/or the Customer will provide to the other Party data on the average derate for each Engine in the previous month. Using this data, GE will determine the average flight leg, annualized utilization, Static Temperature Adjusted to Sea Level and derate parameters for the previous month for each Engine. The Current Rate Per EFH for each Engine will be adjusted in accordance with the Price Adjustment Matrix based on these parameters. This rate multiplied by the total EFH for each Engine elapsed in the prior month, will be calculated monthly to determine the variation from the Current Rate per EFH. The total variation for the 3 months in each quarter will be calculated and Customer will be invoiced or credited no later than the fifteenth (15th) of the month following the quarter end. Customer will make payment within thirty (30) Days from the date of the invoice receipt if invoiced subject to the rest of this Article 6.

For the purposes of this provision the “annualized utilization” for a particular month will be calculated by (i) dividing the hours flown by the relevant Engine in the relevant month by the days in that particular month and (ii) multiplying that figure by three hundred and sixty-five point two five (365.25).

6.2    [***]

6.3    Supplemental Work Payments.

a.
Initial Invoice: Upon completion of Supplemental Work Services, GE will issue an initial invoice for the Services which Customer will pay within thirty (30) Days of the date of invoice receipt.

b.
Final Invoice: Following Redelivery and all associated documentation, GE will issue a final invoice within a reasonable time, and generally within sixty (60) Days of Redelivery for Supplemental Work Services based on actual charges to complete the Services, including any credits due Customer. Such invoice will be reconciled with the initial invoice and Customer’s payment. Customer will pay the final invoice (if any amount is due) within thirty (30) Days of the date of invoice receipt.

6.4    Late Payment Remedies. Should Customer fail to make any payment when due and upon written notice from GE, GE may charge a fee for late payment at a rate equal to [***]. For clarity, the calculation is as follows:

Proprietary Information Subject to Restrictions on Cover Page



Payments will be applied to any late payment fees then to the oldest outstanding amounts in order of succession. If during any twelve (12) month period, Customer demonstrates a consistent pattern of making late payments on amounts not the subject of a good faith dispute (as discussed below), when due, and does not cure such failure within ten (10) Days of the applicable due date, GE may terminate or suspend performance of all or any portion of this Agreement until payment is made in full of all past due amounts (not the subject of a good faith dispute) and it receives commercially acceptable assurances of future payment performance [***]. GE agrees to provide thirty (30) days’ written notice to Customer prior to termination or suspension and/or application of a change in Customer payment terms.

6.5    Customer Disputed Invoice Amounts. Customer shall be permitted to withhold payment from any invoice for any amount for which it disputes in good faith. If, after review and good faith negotiation by the Parties, the dispute is decided in favor of GE, then Customer shall remit payment of such withheld amount(s), without interest, premium or penalty, within twenty (20) Days of such resolution. If, after review and good faith negotiation by the Parties, the dispute is decided in favor of Customer, then any related fees that may have already been paid by Customer shall be credited to Customer’s account. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if disputed invoices cannot be resolved through good faith negotiations between the Parties within thirty (30) Days, either Party may invoke the dispute resolution procedures as described herein.

6.6    Remittance. All payments under this Agreement will be made in United States Dollars, immediately available for use, without any right of set-off or deduction except as allowed per this Agreement, via wire transfer by Customer to the bank account and address designated below.

[***]

ARTICLE 7 – FLEET MANAGEMENT

7.1    Program Manager. GE will assign a Customer Program Manager who will be the point of contact for Customer with respect to Services and who will:

a.
Draft a Procedures Manual and submit it to the Customer for mutual approval;

b.
Work with the Customer, on a monthly basis, to develop a Removal Schedule which will identify by serial number the Engine(s) to be removed during the following six (6) month period, the anticipated reason for removal of each, and the schedule for Delivery;
c.
For the avoidance of doubt, nothing contained herein shall limit Customer’s ability to have the final say in all decisions pertaining to Engine removals from aircraft, maintenance, planning, etc. Customer shall use reasonable efforts to maximize engine on-wing life including troubleshooting, water wash, Diagnostics monitoring and adherence to AMM. Customer’s refusal to comply with the Customer Program Manager’s recommendations shall not be considered a default on the part of Customer, but may effect whether the relevant Services are covered under Article 3 or Article 4, as mutually determined by the Parties.

7.2     Workscope. Prior to Induction, GE will prepare a Workscope and provide it to Customer for approval.

7.3    Line Maintenance. Customer will provide all line maintenance and repair and line station support, consistent with Customer’s historical maintenance practices and OEM recommendations.

7.4    Monitoring Equipment. Customer will provide an automated method to transfer operational and maintenance data to GE for the monitoring and diagnosis of Engine condition. If the aircraft is equipped with air-to-ground equipment such as ACARS, then Customer will forward the data directly to the GE SITA/ARINC address. If air-ground equipment is not available, GE will work with Customer to establish an alternate electronic means of providing this data.

7.5    Designated Repair Station. The Designated Repair Station (“DRS”) will be Strother. GE may change the DRS upon Customer’s prior written consent which shall not be unreasonably withheld or

Proprietary Information Subject to Restrictions on Cover Page


delayed. Upon such change, the Parties agree to discuss in good faith and mutually agree upon the details of such change in writing, including the effect of such change on fees and duties payable by Customer. GE may provide Services at a location other than a Repair Station including performance of repairs on-wing or on-site with Customer’s prior written consent. If GE changes the DRS or performs services other than at the DRS, Customer’s obligations under this Agreement will be no greater than if Services were performed at the original DRS.

7.6    Subcontracting. All Services performed under the Agreement will be performed by GE or its designated subcontractors at maintenance and repair facilities that are properly licensed and certified by the AAA to perform the Services. GE will obtain Customer’s prior written consent, which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed, prior to subcontracting Services on an entire Engine assembly. For individual components of the Engine subcontracted out for Service and returned separately from the Engine assembly directly to Customer by a subcontractor, GE shall be required to obtain prior written consent to subcontract Service and the subcontractor shall be on Customer’s AVL. However, GE shall not be required to obtain Customer’s consent to subcontract Services on individual components of an Engine. If GE does subcontract Services, the Customer obligations under this Agreement will be no greater than if such Services were performed at the DRS or directly by GE. Customer will, at its sole expense, have the right to review GE's quality system audit report(s) for such subcontractor(s). Subcontracting of any Services and/or component part replacement/repair will not relieve GE of its performance obligations set forth in this Agreement.

7.7    Parts Replacement Procedures.

a.
Missing Parts at Delivery. Upon Delivery, GE will promptly notify Customer of any components or LRUs missing from Engines. GE will replace such missing items at Customer’s expense as Supplemental Work Services, unless Customer notifies GE in writing within a reasonable period of time of receiving GE’s notice that Customer wishes to furnish such missing items within a period to be mutually agreed.

b.
Parts Replacement. GE will determine which parts are required to perform the Services and will provide all parts and materials (new or used Serviceable, including use of Rotable Parts) required to accomplish the Services. Each used Serviceable part will be a GE part of a similar age, value and utility to the removed part. Additionally, each used Serviceable part shall not have been exposed to past accident or incident and such transfer/exchange shall not result in a de-compliance with any SB. GE may issue compatible parts from GE's Rotable Parts inventory to replace Customer's parts requiring Services. Customer agrees to accept compatible Rotable Parts that are in compliance with the Workscope. GE agrees to utilize Customer’s tracked parts list as parts that require Customer approval prior to replacement with used or Rotable Parts.

c.
Life Limited Parts. GE will replace[***] upon Customer’s instruction to do so, any LLP that GE receives without the required records. Prior to replacing such LLP, GE will notify Customer of any missing (or incomplete) records and allow Customer two (2) business days to acknowledge and forward such missing or incomplete records. If GE does not receive the relevant records within two (2) business days, the time period set forth in the TAT Guarantee in Article 8.4 shall be extended by the number of additional days it takes Customer to provide the records or consent to replace the LLP.

d.
Customer Furnished Equipment (“CFE”). For Supplemental Work only, upon GE’s prior approval on a case-by-case basis (which approval shall not be unreasonably conditioned, withheld, or denied), Customer may supply parts to GE as CFE, if such parts are: (A) GE parts; (B) consistent with the approved Workscope; (C) provided with an AAA serviceability tag; and (D) ready for immediate use. [***]. CFE approved in accordance with this Article 7.7(d) shall constitute GE-approved parts of the purposes of this Agreement.

e.
[***]

f.
Scrapped Parts. GE will dispose of all Scrapped Parts [***] in accordance with Article 7.7(e) above, at its sole expense and without any further adjustment to Customer.

EXHIBIT C: RATE ADJUSTMENT

The Rate Per EFH will be adjusted for fluctuation of the economy as described below:

Year of Operation (“YO”) will be identified as a given year of calendar operation. The prices for any YO will be adjusted in accordance with the following formula:

Pn = BP x (1 + Composite Index YO)
 
Where: Pn = Invoice Price for YO
BP = Base Price as stated in Article 5.1 above.

Composite Index YO =[***]
    
Labor Index YO = [***]

Where: [***]

The calculation of Pn for any YO will be made effective January 1 of the YO. If the Rate Per EFH adjustment, as calculated by the formula above, is a negative number, the adjustment to the rate Per EFH shall be deemed to be zero (0).

Labor Index = the twelve (12) point weighted average of ECI 336411W" Labor Index (North American Industrial Classification System (NAICS) Code 336411, (BLS code: CIU2023211000000I), base month and year December 2005 = 100), as published by the Bureau of Labor Statistics, U.S. Department of Labor, rounded to the second decimal place, for the twelve (12) month period ending on the last day of June of each year. Should the U.S. Department of Labor revise the methodology used for the determination of the values to be used to determine this index, cease publishing this index, or for any reason has not released values needed to determine the applicable price adjustment, GE will select a substitute for such values from data published by the Bureau of Labor Statistics or other similar data reported by non-governmental United States organizations. Appropriate revisions of the formula will be made as required to reflect any substitute values.

[***]

*North American Industrial Classification System (NAICS) Code 336411 (BLS code: CIU2023211000000I), base month and year December 2005 = 100 is a definition reference to the Employment Cost Index current baseline issued by the Bureau of Labor Statistics.  Beginning with estimates for March 2006, several changes were introduced to the ECI. These include changes to the industry and occupational classification systems, reweighting employment counts, and rebasing the index numbers.  This is referenced in the contract only to establish the baseline in the case that the government stops issuing the index and we have to re-baseline the contract to another index.

EXHIBIT D: PRICE ADJUSTMENT MATRIX

When the actual operating parameters do not precisely equal the values on the tables severity will be calculated by performing linear interpolation within the tables’ closest stated values to the actual operating parameters. Two dimensional linear interpolation will be applied, as necessary, to the flight leg and derate tables and then between the Utilization tables and Static Temperature Adjusted to Sea Level tables. The resultant severity value will be rounded to 4 decimal places. The final severity applied will be the product of these severity values rounded to 4 decimal places.

Should Customer’s actual operating parameters go beyond the furthest points of the table provided. GE shall adjust the table to cover Customer’s updated operating parameters. Such adjusted table will be applied retroactively to the time Customer’s operating parameters moved beyond the points provided and, if applicable, GE shall invoice or provide a credit to Customer for any amounts that would have been applicable if the rates on such table had been in effect at the time the flight hours were incurred.

1.1    Total Liability. The total liability of GE for any and all claims, whether in contract, warranty, tort (including negligence but excluding willful misconduct, gross negligence, and recklessness), product liability, patent infringement or otherwise, for any damages arising out of, connected with or resulting from the performance or non-performance of any Service or from the manufacture, sale, Redelivery, resale, repair, overhaul, replacement or use of the Engine or any item or part thereof[***]. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event will GE have any liability hereunder, whether as a result of breach of contract, warranty, tort (including negligence but excluding, willful misconduct or recklessness), product liability, or otherwise, for any special, consequential, incidental, resultant or indirect damages, (including, without limitation, loss of: use, profit, revenue or goodwill) or punitive or exemplary damages. In no event will GE have any liability hereunder, whether as a result of breach of contract, warranty, tort (including negligence), product liability, patent liability, or otherwise, for the design, material, workmanship, engineering defects or product liability and any damages whatsoever, including damages to personal property and for personal injury or death, caused in any way by the manufacturer of an Engine, or the parts, LRU’s, components or material, thereof, or related thereto. In no event will the limitation of liability provided in this Section 1.1 to any extent or in any manner limit the ability to recover against GE if and to the extent Customer incurs a loss or liability to a third-party directly arising out of the performance or non-performance of a Service or from the manufacture, sale, Redelivery, resale, repair, overhaul, replacement or use of the Engine or any item or part thereof.

1.2    In the event Customer uses non-GE parts or non-GE approved LRU’s, parts or repairs in an Engine and such LRU’s, parts or repairs are the sole cause of personal injury, death or property damage to third parties, Customer shall indemnify and hold harmless GE from all claims and liabilities associated therewith, The preceding indemnity shall apply whether or not GE was provided a right under the Agreement to remove such LRU’s, parts or repairs, and irrespective of the exercise by GE of such right.

2.1    Excusable Delay. Either Party will be excused from, and will not be liable for, any delay in performance or failure to perform hereunder (except for the obligation to pay money or credit or debit an account which will not be excused hereunder), and will not be deemed to be in default for any delay in or failure of performance hereunder due to causes beyond its reasonable control. Such causes will be conclusively deemed to include, but not be limited to: [***] (each an “Excusable Delay”). The time of performance shall be extended for a period equal to the time lost by reason of delay, including time to overcome the effect of the delay.

2.2    Continuing Obligations.

GE shall, at the request of Customer, negotiate and defend any claim brought against any Customer indemnitee or in which any Customer indemnitee is joined as a party defendant based upon any other matters for which GE has agreed to indemnify Customer and each Customer indemnitee as provided above. Customer agrees to provide: (a) prompt written notice of a claim for which it seeks indemnification; (b) all information and evidence within its control and necessary for GE to conduct a defense; and (c) sole control of the defense and all related settlement negotiations.

7.4    Remedy. THE FOREGOING WILL CONSTITUTE CUSTOMER’S SOLE REMEDY AND GE’S SOLE LIABILITY FOR PATENT OR COPYRIGHT INFRINGEMENT BY ANY MATERIAL OR PROCESS AND IS SUBJECT TO THE LIMITATION OF LIABILITY SET FORTH IN ARTICLE 1, “LIMITATION OF LIABILITY.” THE PATENT WARRANTY OBLIGATIONS RECITED ABOVE ARE IN LIEU OF ALL OTHER PATENT WARRANTIES WHATSOEVER, WHETHER ORAL, WRITTEN, EXPRESSED, IMPLIED OR STATUTORY (INCLUDING ANY WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR PARTICULAR PURPOSE OR ANY IMPLIED WARRANTY ARISING FROM COURSE OF DEALING, COURSE OF PERFORMANCE, OR USAGE OF TRADE).

Any assignment in contradiction of this clause will be considered null and void.
