The Parties agree Boeing will be paid the full discount value of [*****], of which Seller has already paid to Boeing [*****] as of [*****]. The remaining unpaid balance due to Boeing is [*****] and will be paid by [*****]. For the purpose of administrative convenience, the discounts shall be paid by Seller in increments as defined below:

“c)    Boeing agrees to pay Seller a fixed sum of $[*****] to support     737 rate [*****] APM tooling, capital, and equipment expenditures,     which the Parties agree includes 737-8 rate tooling** (only from     rate [*****] up to and including [*****]), 737 CIW rate tooling** (only from     rate [*****] up to and including [*****]), and 737-7 (7150) rate tooling**     (only from rate [*****] up to and including [*****]). Payments shall be made as     follows, measured from the date Boeing directs Seller in writing to     go to rate [*****], in accordance with SBP Section 7.5.3 (the “[*****]    Letter”):
$[*****] *** paid no later than [*****] days following the [*****] Letter
$[*****] *** paid no later than [*****] days following the [*****] Letter
$[*****] *** paid no later than [*****] days following the [*****] Letter
$[*****] *** paid no later than [*****] days following the [*****] Letter
$[*****] *** paid no later than [*****] days following the [*****] Letter
$[*****] *** paid no later than [*****] days following the [*****] Letter

Amendment No. 47                6            Spirit Aerosystems Inc.



$[*****] *** paid no later than [*****] days following the [*****] Letter
$[*****] *** paid no later than [*****] days following the [*****] Letter
    


** Based on SBP Attachment 15 “Maximum Production Rate and Model Mix Constraint Matrix” as of the Effective Date of SBP Amendment 40.

*** These payments may be reduced to account for any payments made by Boeing to Seller for long-lead items associated with rate [*****]. Commencing in [*****], Seller will request authority to proceed (ATP) for appropriate amounts for long-lead items to protect the [*****] Shipsets rate. Upon approval, Boeing will issue the ATP(s) and Boeing will pay appropriate amounts for such long-lead items. To the extent Boeing does not direct Seller to implement rate [*****], Boeing reserves the right to reconvene with Seller at a future date to address any ATP payments paid to Seller that were in support of long-lead items.
i.
Boeing shall issue purchase orders no later than [*****] prior to the above dates in this Section 8.c).
a.
After the [*****] Letter is provided by Boeing to Seller, the Parties will amend this Section with actual calendar dates.
ii.
Seller will submit CTLs for rate [*****] Tooling. The above payments (including payments for long-lead items) in this Section 8.c) are not contingent upon CTL submittal by Seller or CTL approval by Boeing. Seller will determine the allocation of the [*****] between capital equipment and tooling for rate [*****] APM, and provide it to Boeing within [*****] days of the [*****] Letter.
iii.
Payment will be made by Boeing to Seller in accordance with SBP Section 5.2.1. Upon completion of all CTLs, Seller will notify Boeing that all CTLs have been submitted.

SBP Attachment 1 Exhibit G identifies the rate tooling settlements that are and are not included within the $[*****] fixed sum payment set forth in this Section 8.c). For the avoidance of doubt, SBP Attachment 27 does not apply to the $[*****] fixed sum payment set forth in this Section 8.c).”
