Introduction

Prior to title transfer of the Aircraft to Customer, Boeing baseline production software will be installed in the Aircraft.

Operational software, as set out in Article 1 and Article 2 below, will not be installed temporarily or permanently on an Aircraft prior to the transfer by Boeing of title to that Aircraft to Customer or a party designated by Customer.

1. Boeing-Provided Operational Software and Data.

Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement and applicable 787 software license order(s), immediately following title transfer of the Aircraft to Customer, Boeing will, upon Customer’s request, load Boeing-provided operational software and data onto onboard loadable hardware that enable the Aircraft to operate certain e-enabled features as described in the Purchase Agreement and applicable 787 software license order(s).

2. Customer-Provided Operational Software and Data.

2.1 *** Software. If Customer has elected to customize software or modify settings and features of selected onboard software or databases from what is set forth in Exhibit A of the Purchase Agreement, at Customer’s request, Boeing will provide a courtesy load of Customer’s version of such operational software immediately following title transfer of the Aircraft. Boeing will load Customer’s operational software if it is provided to Boeing within specified lead times and schedule. If Customer fails to provide the operational software in accordance with Boeing’s instructions, the Aircraft will be solely configured with the Boeing baseline production software in lieu of Customer’s operational software.

2.2 *** and/or Other Third Party Operational Software and Databases. If Customer provides Customer-developed software applications or has licensed additional software or databases from *** and/or other third party supplier for installation onto an onboard loadable system, at Customer’s request, Boeing will also provide a courtesy load of such operational software immediately following title transfer of the Aircraft. If Customer fails to provide such operational software in accordance with Boeing’s instructions, Boeing will not load this software.

2.3 IFE Customer Software. IFE Customer Software shall mean any software which is obtained by the Customer from a source other than Boeing for installation in the IFE system. Boeing will make the Aircraft available to Customer’s IFE supplier for loading of the IFE Customer Software via Customer authorized work order(s) immediately following title transfer of the Aircraft. The time required for the IFE supplier to complete the loading of the IFE Customer Software is estimated to be approximately *** hours. If Customer fails to make appropriate arrangements with its IFE supplier in accordance with Boeing instructions, the Aircraft will be solely configured with Boeing’s baseline production software for the Boeing catalogue selected IFE configuration. Boeing’s FAA approved Repair Station will *** to Customer or its IFE supplier to revise the IFE system hardware or IFE Customer Software while the Aircraft is on Boeing property prior to delivery flyaway, even if an FAA approved service bulletin is available for such revision.

3. Additional Terms and Conditions.

3.1 With respect to Customer-provided operational software and data referenced in Article 2.1 and 2.2, above, Customer shall grant, and/or shall obtain from the suppliers, a *** license for Boeing to copy and load such software on the Aircraft. Boeing will retain a copy of such software/data for loading on future Aircraft deliveries, however, Boeing expects Customer to provide updated operational software applications and databases for each Aircraft delivery.

3.2.1 If any Customer-provided operational software referred to in Article 2.1 above fails to reload successfully, the Aircraft will be solely configured with the Boeing baseline production software.

In such an event, and upon Customer’s request, Boeing will install the Boeing baseline production software for the Boeing catalogue selected IFE configuration prior to Aircraft fly-away.

3.4 Customer is responsible for functional testing, verification, quality assurance, and operational approval of all Customer-provided operational software.

After fly-away, Customer will remove Boeing’s access key and certificates from the OAS.

3.6 Customer will *** Boeing *** the installation or use of Customer-provided operational software by Boeing pursuant to this Letter Agreement. ***

3.7 The DISCLAIMER AND RELEASE and EXCLUSION OF CONSEQUENTIAL AND OTHER DAMAGES provisions in Article 11 of Part 2 of Exhibit C of the Aircraft General Terms Agreement (AGTA) between Boeing and Customer and the insurance provisions of Article 8.2 of the AGTA shall apply to Boeing’s loading of all software and data pursuant to this Letter Agreement.
