5. SCHEDULING AND CANCELLATIONS.
(a) Time Share Lessee may from time to time request the use of the Aircraft for a Time Sharing Flight by contacting Time Share Lessor’s scheduler (as identified from time to time to Time Share Lessee by Time Share Lessor, “Scheduler”). Scheduler shall advise Time Share Lessee as to whether or not the Aircraft is available for Time Share Lessee’s use and schedule the Aircraft accordingly. Such determination of availability and scheduling shall be made by Scheduler, on behalf of Time Share Lessor, in Scheduler’s/Time Share Lessor’s sole discretion.
(b) In addition to proposed schedules and flight times, Time Share Lessee shall provide the following information for each proposed flight at some time prior to scheduled departure as required by Time Share Lessor or Time Share Lessor’s flight crew:

(ii) destination;
(iii) date and time of flight;
(iv) number of anticipated passengers;
(v) nature and extent of luggage and/or cargo to be carried;
(vi) date and time of return flight, if any; and
(vii) any other information concerning the proposed flight that is pertinent or required by Time Share Lessor or its flight crew.
(c) Scheduler, on behalf of Time Share Lessor, shall arrange for flight crew, landing permits, clearances and ground handling for all destinations and coordinate the Aircraft’s movements to support Time Share Lessee’s travel schedule.
(d) Time Share Lessee shall notify Scheduler of any desired cancellation or rescheduling of a Time Sharing Flight. Cancellation or rescheduling charges to be paid by Time Share Lessee shall be limited to Time Sharing Costs incurred in preparation for the cancelled or rescheduled Time Sharing Flight by Time Share Lessor as of the time of such notification, including the return of the Aircraft to its home base (as set forth in Section 27, below). Time Share Lessor shall cause Scheduler to notify Time Share Lessee of any desired or required cancellation by Time Share Lessor.

6. MAINTENANCE RESPONSIBILITY. Time Share Lessor, at its own cost and expense, shall be responsible for all service, repair, inspection, maintenance and overhaul to be done to the Aircraft during the term of this Agreement.
