1.2.Section 14 “EXCUSABLE DELAY” of the GTA is deleted in its entirety and replaced with the following:
14.0 DELAYS
14.1 Excusable Delay
If delivery of any Product is delayed by circumstances beyond Seller's reasonable control (and despite Seller's commercially reasonable efforts to mitigate such circumstances) and without the error or negligence of Seller or of its suppliers, or subcontractors, or by any material act or failure to act by Boeing or its service provider (“Boeing’s Service Provider”) (any such delay being hereinafter referred to as "Excusable Delay"), the delivery of such Product shall be extended for a period to be determined by Boeing after an assessment by Boeing of alternative work methods. Excusable Delays may include, but are not limited to, acts of God, war,
Amendment 8 to BCA ###-###-#### | BOEING PROPRIETARY | Page 2 |
terrorist acts, riots, acts of government, fires, floods, epidemics, quarantine restrictions, freight embargoes, strikes or unusually severe weather, but shall exclude Seller's noncompliance with any rule, regulation or order promulgated by any governmental agency for or with respect to environmental protection. However, the above notwithstanding, Boeing expects Seller to continue production, recover lost time and support all schedules as established under this Agreement or any Order. Therefore, it is understood and agreed that (i) delays of less than two (2) days duration shall not be considered to be Excusable Delays unless such delays shall occur within thirty (30) days preceding the scheduled delivery date of any Product and (ii) if delay in delivery of any Product is caused by the default of any of Seller's subcontractors or suppliers, such delay shall not be considered an Excusable Delay unless the supplies or services to be provided by such subcontractor or supplier are not obtainable from other sources that meet Boeing's specifications in sufficient time to permit Seller to meet the applicable delivery schedules.
If delivery of any Product is delayed by an Excusable Delay for more than three (3) months, and:
(a)the Excusable Delay is due to a strike, Boeing may, without any additional extension, cancel all or part of any Order with respect to the delayed Products, and may exercise its rights and remedies of cover in respect of such Products in accordance with GTA Section 13.2.B, or
(b)the Excusable Delay is due to reasons other than a strike, Boeing may, without any additional extension, cancel all or part of any Order, with respect to the delayed Products, and may exercise its right of cover in respect of such Products, but at its own expense.
If delivery of Product(s) constituting more than 25% of the shipset value for one or more models of Program Airplanes is delayed by an Excusable Delay for more than five (5) months, Boeing may without any additional extension, cancel the SBP as it applies to such models of Program Airplanes, and neither Party shall have any liability to the other with respect to such cancellation, except Section 13.2.E shall apply.
14.2 Delays Attributable to Boeing
In the event of any delay caused by Boeing or Boeing’s Service Provider affecting Spirit's delivery schedule, Boeing and Spirit shall seek commercially practical solutions to assure Boeing maintains on schedule delivery of the Aircraft to its Customers. If such solutions cause additional cost impact to Spirit, Boeing will compensate Spirit for the reasonable costs of such impact. To the extent any delay is foreseeable, Boeing shall notify Spirit as soon as practicable. In no event shall such delay affecting Spirit's delivery schedule constitute an Event of Default by Spirit.”
