relating to

BOEING MODEL 787-9 AIRCRAFT

 

1. Formula.

Airframe and Optional Features price adjustments (Airframe Price Adjustment) are used to allow prices to be stated in current year dollars at the signing of this Purchase Agreement and to adjust the amount to be paid by Customer at delivery for the effects of economic fluctuation. The Airframe Price Adjustment will be determined at the time of Aircraft delivery in accordance with the following formula:

****

Where:

****

****

****    ****

    ****

Where:

ECIb is the base year airframe escalation index (as set forth in Table 1 of this Purchase Agreement);

ECI is a value determined using the U.S. Department of Labor, Bureau of Labor Statistics, Employment Cost Index for NAICS Manufacturing – Total Compensation (BLS Series ID CIU2013000000000I), calculated by establishing a three (3) month arithmetic average value (expressed as a decimal and rounded to the nearest tenth) using the values for the 11th, 12th, and 13th months prior to the month of scheduled delivery of the applicable Aircraft. As the Employment Cost Index values are only released on a quarterly basis, the value released for the first quarter will be used for the months of January, February, and March; the value released for the second quarter will be used for the months of April, May, and June; the value released for the third quarter will be used for the months of July, August, and September; the value released for the fourth quarter will be used for the months of October, November, and December.

****    ****

    ****

Where:

CPIb is the base year airframe escalation index (as set forth in Table 1 of this Purchase Agreement); and

 

  17   AE1 Page 2

BOEING PROPRIETARY


CPI is a value determined using the U.S. Department of Labor, Bureau of Labor Statistics, Consumer Price Index – All Urban Consumers (BLS Series ID CUUR0000SA0), calculated as a three (3) month arithmetic average of the released monthly values (expressed as a decimal and rounded to the nearest tenth) using the values for the 11th, 12th, and 13th months prior to the month of scheduled delivery of the applicable Aircraft.

As an example, for an Aircraft scheduled to be delivered in the month of July, the months of June, July, and August of the preceding year will be utilized in determining the value of ECI and CPI.

Note:

 

  (i) In determining the values of L and M, all calculations and resulting values will be expressed as a decimal rounded to the nearest ten-thousandth.

 

  (ii) ****

 

  (iii) ****

 

  (iv) The **** (base year indices) are the actual average values reported by the U.S. Department of Labor, Bureau of Labor Statistics. The actual average values are calculated as a three (3) month arithmetic average of the released monthly values (expressed as a decimal and rounded to the nearest tenth) using the values for the 11th, 12th, and 13th months prior to the airframe base year. The applicable base year and corresponding denominator is provided by Boeing in Table 1 of this Purchase Agreement.

 

  (v) The final value of Pa will be rounded to the nearest dollar.

 

  (vi) The Airframe Price Adjustment will not be made if it will result in a decrease in the Aircraft Basic Price.

 

2. Values to be Utilized in the Event of Unavailability.

2.1 If the Bureau of Labor Statistics substantially revises the methodology used for the determination of the values to be used to determine the ECI and CPI values (in contrast to benchmark adjustments or other corrections of previously released values), or for any reason has not released values needed to determine the applicable Airframe Price Adjustment, the parties will, prior to the delivery of any such Aircraft, select a substitute from other Bureau of Labor Statistics data or similar data reported by non-governmental organizations. Such substitute will result in the same adjustment, insofar as possible, as would have been calculated utilizing the original values adjusted for fluctuation during the applicable time period. However, if within twenty-four (24) months after delivery of the Aircraft, the Bureau of Labor Statistics should resume

 

  18   AE1 Page 3

BOEING PROPRIETARY


releasing values for the months needed to determine the Airframe Price Adjustment, such values will be used to determine any increase or decrease in the Airframe Price Adjustment for the Aircraft from that determined at the time of delivery of the Aircraft.

2.2 Notwithstanding Article 2.1 above, if prior to the scheduled delivery month of an Aircraft the Bureau of Labor Statistics changes the base year for determination of the ECI and CPI values as defined above, such re-based values will be incorporated in the Airframe Price Adjustment calculation.

2.3 In the event escalation provisions are made non-enforceable or otherwise rendered void by any agency of the United States Government, the parties agree, to the extent they may lawfully do so, to equitably adjust the Aircraft Price of any affected Aircraft to reflect an allowance for increases or decreases consistent with the applicable provisions of paragraph 1 of this Supplemental Exhibit AE1 in labor compensation and material costs occurring since August of the year prior to the price base year shown in the Purchase Agreement.

2.4 If within twelve (12) months of Aircraft delivery, the published index values are revised due to an acknowledged error by the Bureau of Labor Statistics, the Airframe Price Adjustment will be re-calculated using the revised index values (this does not include those values noted as preliminary by the Bureau of Labor Statistics). A credit memorandum or supplemental invoice will be issued for the Airframe Price Adjustment difference. ****

Note:

 

  (i) The values released by the Bureau of Labor Statistics and available to Boeing thirty (30) days prior to the first day of the scheduled delivery month of an Aircraft will be used to determine the ECI and CPI values for the applicable months (including those noted as preliminary by the Bureau of Labor Statistics) to calculate the Airframe Price Adjustment for the Aircraft invoice at the time of delivery. The values will be considered final and no Airframe Price Adjustments will be made after Aircraft delivery for any subsequent changes in published Index values, subject always to paragraph 2.4 above.

 

  (ii) The maximum number of digits to the right of the decimal after rounding utilized in any part of the Airframe Price Adjustment equation will be four (4), where rounding of the fourth digit will be increased to the next highest digit when the 5th digit is equal to five (5) or greater.

relating to

BOEING MODEL 787-9 AIRCRAFT

 

1. ENGINE ESCALATION.

The Aircraft Basic Price of each Aircraft set forth in Table 1a of the Purchase Agreement includes an aggregate price for General Electric Aircraft GEnx series engines and all accessories, equipment and parts provided by the engine manufacturer (Engines). The adjustment in Engine Price applicable to each Aircraft (Engine Price Adjustment) will be determined at the time of Aircraft delivery in accordance with the following formula:

 

  **** ****

Where:

****

Where:

 

  ECIb is the base year engine escalation index (as set forth in Table 1a of this Purchase Agreement);

 

  ECI is a value determined using the U.S. Department of Labor, Bureau of Labor Statistics, Employment Cost Index for NAICS Manufacturing - Total Compensation (BLS Series ID CIU2013000000000I), calculated by establishing a three (3) month arithmetic average value (expressed as a decimal and rounded to the nearest tenth) using the values for the 11th, 12th, and 13th months prior to the month of scheduled delivery of the applicable Aircraft. As the Employment Cost Index values are only released on a quarterly basis, the value released for the first quarter will be used for the months of January, February, and March; the value released for the second quarter will be used for the months of April, May, and June; the value released for the third quarter will be used for the months of July, August, and September; the value released for the fourth quarter will be used for the months of October, November, and December.

 

  **** ****

 

  ****             ****

 

  39   Page 2

BOEING PROPRIETARY


Where:

 

  CPIb is the base year index (as set forth in Table 1a of this Purchase Agreement); and

 

  CPI is a value determined using the U.S. Department of Labor, Bureau of Labor Statistics, Consumer Price Index - All Urban Consumers (BLS Series ID CUUR0000SA0), calculated as a three (3) month arithmetic average of the released monthly values (expressed as a decimal and rounded to the nearest tenth) using the values for the 11th, 12th, and 13th months prior to the month of scheduled delivery of the applicable Aircraft.

As an example, for an Aircraft scheduled to be delivered in the month of July, the months June, July and August of the preceding year will be utilized in determining the value of ECI and CPI.

NOTE:

 

  (i) In determining the values of L and M, all calculations and resulting values will be expressed as a decimal rounded to the nearest ten-thousandth.

 

  (ii) ****

 

  (iii) ****

 

  (iv) The **** (base year indices) are the actual average values reported by the U.S. Department of Labor, Bureau of Labor Statistics. The actual average values are calculated as a three (3) month arithmetic average of the released monthly values (expressed as a decimal and rounded to the nearest tenth) using the values for the 11th, 12th , and 13th months prior to the Engine Price base year. The applicable base year and corresponding denominator is provided by Boeing in Table 1a of this Purchase Agreement.

 

  (v) The final value of Pa will be rounded to the nearest dollar.

 

  (vi) The Engine Price Adjustment will not be made if it will result in a decrease in the Engine Price.

 

2. Values to be Utilized in the Event of Unavailability.

2.1 If the Bureau of Labor Statistics substantially revises the methodology used for the determination of the values to be used to determine the ECI and CPI values (in contrast to benchmark adjustments or other corrections of previously released values), or for any reason has not released values needed to determine the applicable Engine Price Adjustment, General Electric Aircraft agrees to meet jointly with Boeing and

 

  40   Page 3

BOEING PROPRIETARY


the Customer (to the extent such parties may lawfully do so) prior to the delivery of any such Aircraft, to select a substitute from other Bureau of Labor Statistics data or similar data reported by non-governmental organizations. Such substitute will result in the same adjustment, insofar as possible, as would have been calculated utilizing the original values adjusted for fluctuation during the applicable time period. However, if within twenty-four (24) months after delivery of the Aircraft, the Bureau of Labor Statistics should resume releasing values for the months needed to determine the Engine Price Adjustment; such values will be used to determine any increase or decrease in the Engine Price Adjustment for the Engine from that determined at the time of delivery of the Aircraft.

2.2 Notwithstanding Article 2.1 above, if prior to the scheduled delivery month of an Aircraft the Bureau of Labor Statistics changes the base year for determination of the ECI and CPI values as defined above, such re-based values will be incorporated in the Engine Price Adjustment calculation.

2.3 In the event escalation provisions are made non-enforceable or otherwise rendered void by any agency of the United States Government, the parties agree, to the extent they may lawfully do so, to equitably adjust the Engine Price of any affected Aircraft to reflect an allowance for increases or decreases consistent with the applicable provisions of paragraph 1 of this Supplemental Exhibit EE1a in labor compensation and material costs occurring since August of the year prior to the price base year shown in the Purchase Agreement.

2.4 If within twelve (12) months of Aircraft delivery, the published index values are revised due to an acknowledged error by the Bureau of Labor Statistics, the Engine Price Adjustment will be re-calculated using the revised index values (this does not include those values noted as preliminary by the Bureau of Labor Statistics). A credit memorandum or supplemental invoice will be issued for the Engine Price Adjustment difference. ****

NOTE:

 

  (i) The values released by the Bureau of Labor Statistics and available to Boeing thirty (30) days prior to the first day of the scheduled delivery month of an Aircraft will be used to determine the ECI and CPI values for the applicable months (including those noted as preliminary by the Bureau of Labor Statistics) to calculate the Engine Price Adjustment for the Aircraft invoice at the time of delivery. The values will be considered final and no Engine Price Adjustments will be made after Aircraft delivery for any subsequent changes in published Index values, subject always to paragraph 2.4 above.

 

  (ii) The maximum number of digits to the right of the decimal after rounding utilized in any part of the Engine Price Adjustment equation will be four (4), where rounding of the fourth digit will be increased to the next highest digit when the 5th digit is equal to five (5) or greater.

Subject:    Assignment of Customer’s Interest for Securing Advance Payment Financing
Reference:    Purchase Agreement No. PA-04227 (Purchase Agreement) between The Boeing Company (Boeing) and Avolon Aerospace Leasing Limited (Customer) relating to Model 787-9 aircraft (Aircraft)

This letter agreement (Letter Agreement) amends and supplements the Purchase Agreement. All terms used but not defined in this Letter Agreement will have the same meaning as in the Purchase Agreement.

This Letter Agreement sets forth the rights and obligations between Boeing and Customer in the event of Customer’s desire to assign certain of its rights and interests under the Purchase Agreement for the purpose of securing advance payment financing. The terms of this Letter Agreement will prevail in the event of any conflict between this Letter Agreement and any provision of the Purchase Agreement.

 

1. Assignment of Customer’s Interest.

1.1 Boeing may consent to any reasonable request by Customer to assign as security interest certain rights and interests of Customer under the Purchase Agreement if such assignment is solely for the purpose of enabling Customer to secure advance payment financing for the purchase of the Aircraft provided that Customer and Customer’s financiers accept Boeing’s terms and conditions for consenting to a security assignment including, but not limited to, the following: (i) Customer and Customer’s financiers agree that the assignment will be subject to Boeing’s option (Manufacturer’s Option), as defined in Section 2, below; (ii) the assignment will be subject to the Manufacturer’s Option upon the occurrence of a Change of Control event as defined in Section 3, below; (iii) Customer will continue at all times to remain liable to Boeing under the Purchase Agreement to perform all duties and obligations of Customer; (iv) Boeing will not be subject to any additional liability as a result of the assignment which Boeing would not otherwise be subject to under the Purchase Agreement; and, (v) the assignment will not modify in any respect the continued rights of Boeing under the Purchase Agreement, or require Boeing to divest itself of title to or possession of the Aircraft, or any other things, until delivery thereof and full payment is provided to Boeing. Boeing will not unreasonably withhold its consent.

1.2 Regarding assignment of a security interest in the Purchase Agreement for the purpose of obtaining financing of the advance payments, in the event of Customer’s default, Boeing will permit Customer’s financier to be assigned the right to purchase the Aircraft for the Aircraft Basic Price with Escalation Adjustment, less an amount to be agreed in good faith between Boeing, Customer and Customer’s financiers (Agreed Upon Price). The intent of the Agreed Upon Price is to enable Customer to obtain commercial debt financing, on terms which are reasonable for a customer of similar standing to Customer. **** purchase agreement number 3814 and purchase agreement number 3815. In calculating the amount payable by the financier for an Aircraft, the financier shall receive credit for the advance payments received and retained by Boeing under the Purchase Agreement with respect to that Aircraft. In the event of such assignment, Customer shall remain responsible for performance of Customer’s obligations under any separate agreements related to the Aircraft including, but not limited to, agreements with the engine manufacturer or BFE suppliers.

1.3 In addition to the assignable concession level in paragraph 1.2 above, Boeing will permit Customer to assign to Customer’s financier the following **** advance payment schedule which modifies the **** schedule reflected in Table 1 to the 787 Purchase Agreement.

1.4 At delivery of the Aircraft, Financier will pay interest on the Deferred Advance Payments from the calendar day on which each advance payment would have been due in accordance with Table 1 of the 787 Purchase Agreement until the day such payment is received by Boeing. **** The effective rate will be the rate in effect on the first business day of the calendar quarter in which the advance payment was initially deferred, and will be reset every calendar quarter.

1.5 The preceding provisions are subject to adequate documentation of the security and consent agreements as solely determined by Boeing. At the time such agreements are offered for consideration by Boeing, Boeing will discuss reasonable requests by Customer for possible modification of the preceding provisions, including escalation methodology and concession levels, in light of changing market conditions and lender requirements related to advance payment financing.

2. Manufacturer’s Option.

If Customer’s financier gives notice that it intends to exercise its assigned right to assume Customer’s rights under the Purchase Agreement with respect to any Aircraft, Boeing will have the right to assume those rights under the Purchase Agreement with respect to such Aircraft by paying an amount equal to the aggregate of the advance payments funded by the advance payment financing, and received and retained by Boeing under the Purchase Agreement with respect to that Aircraft.

 

3. Change of Control Event.

A “Change of Control” will mean the occurrence of any one or more of the following events: (i) any party taking any action to foreclose or otherwise exercise any right such party may have to control or otherwise direct Customer (or in the event Customer assigns any or all of its rights in the Purchase Agreement prior to delivery of all aircraft hereunder, Customer’s assignee) pursuant to a security agreement, pledge or otherwise; (ii) any change of ownership or control of Customer or Customer’s assignee (as applicable) whether through sale, merger, consolidation or otherwise or whether through foreclosure, enforcement of a security interest, or otherwise resulting from the acts of any party; (iii) the creation of any lien upon the assets of Customer or Customer’s assignee (as applicable) or any pledge of any ownership or other interest in Customer or Customer’s assignee (as applicable) to any party; or, (iv) the bankruptcy (whether voluntary, involuntary or otherwise) or insolvency of the Customer or Customer’s assignee (as applicable). For avoidance of doubt where the Customer has assigned any or all of its rights in the Purchase Agreement prior to delivery of any or all all aircraft hereunder, the Change of Control Event contemplated by this paragraph 3 will apply only to the Customer’s assignee and not to the Customer.

 

4. Assignment.

This Letter Agreement is provided as an accommodation to Customer in consideration of its relationship with Boeing, and cannot be assigned in whole or in part.

 

5. Confidential Treatment.

The information contained herein represents confidential business information and has value precisely because it is not available generally or to other parties. Customer will limit the disclosure of its contents to (i) employees of Customer and (ii) advisors, including legal advisors to Customer, each with a need to know the contents for purposes of helping Customer perform its obligations under the Purchase Agreement and who understand they are not to disclose its contents to any other person or entity without the prior written consent of Boeing.

Subject:    Special Matters relating to COTS Software and End User License Agreements
Reference:    Purchase Agreement No. PA-04227 (Purchase Agreement) between The Boeing Company (Boeing) and Avolon Aerospace Leasing Limited (Customer) relating to Model 787-9 aircraft (Aircraft)

This letter agreement (Letter Agreement) amends and supplements the Purchase Agreement. All terms used but not defined in this Letter Agreement will have the same meaning as in the Purchase Agreement.

Recitals

1. Certain third party, commercial off-the-shelf software products are available to perform various functions required in the Aircraft (COTS Software).

2. The industry practice with respect to COTS Software is to permit manufacturers to install the software in products for sale to customers. The manufacturer is required to pass to the Customer an End User License Agreement (EULA), which covers the right to use the COTS Software. The EULA’s also require each user of the product to further license the software and pass the EULA to any user to whom he transfers the product.

3. Because of the described industry practice with respect to COTS Software, Boeing does not acquire title to COTS Software and cannot pass title to COTS Software at the time of delivery of the Aircraft.

4. Therefore, the parties desire to amend certain provisions of the Purchase Agreement to properly reflect the respective rights and obligations of the parties with respect to the COTS Software included in the Aircraft.

Agreement

1. Prior to delivery of the Aircraft, Boeing will make available to Customer copies of all EULA’s applicable to the Aircraft, and Customer agrees to comply with all provisions of the applicable EULA’s.

 

EULA Special Matters

  78   LA Page 1

2. Notwithstanding the provisions of Article 6.3 of the AGTA, at delivery of each Aircraft, Boeing will provide Customer a bill of sale conveying good title, free of encumbrances except as provided in applicable EULA’s.

3. In connection with any sale or other transfer of the Aircraft, Customer agrees to comply with all provisions of the applicable EULA’s, including without limitation the re-licensing of the software to Customer’s transferee and the flow down within such license of the further requirement that Customer’s transferee comply with and flow to other transferees the obligations of the EULA.

Subject:    Leasing Matters for 787 Aircraft
Reference:    Purchase Agreement No. PA-04227 (Purchase Agreement) between The Boeing Company (Boeing) and Avolon Aerospace Leasing Limited (Customer) relating to Model 787-9 aircraft (Aircraft)

This letter agreement (Letter Agreement) amends and supplements the Purchase Agreement. All terms used but not defined in this Letter Agreement will have the same meaning as in the Purchase Agreement.

It is understood that Customer intends to lease the Aircraft to a third party or parties (Lessee or Lessees). This Letter Agreement relates to certain services that Boeing will provide to such Lessees.

1. Lease of Aircraft Prior to Delivery.

It is understood that Customer intends to lease the Aircraft to Lessees, and, in most cases, such leases will be entered into prior to delivery of the Aircraft. Provisions related to the lease of an Aircraft and assignment of Purchase Agreement rights related thereto are contained in Article 9 of the AGTA.

2. Identification of Lessee(s).

2.1 At the time of execution of the Purchase Agreement, Customer may not have identified Lessees to Boeing for any of the Aircraft. Customer agrees to give Boeing written notice as soon as reasonably practicable **** of the name and address of the applicable Lessee, the month of Aircraft delivery and the desired country of registration. Customer acknowledges that identifying a Lessee within the preferred time frame does not ensure all desired configuration changes will be available for the Aircraft identified for the Lessee. Boeing will work with Customer and/or Lessee to configure the Aircraft in accordance with Boeing’s standard lead-times and production constraints. If a configuration for the Aircraft identified for a Lessee has not been defined at least **** prior to the scheduled month of delivery, then Boeing reserves the right to implement such Aircraft into production in the Customer’s baseline configuration set forth in Exhibit A to the Purchase Agreement.

 

Leasing Matters

  82   LA Page 2

BOEING PROPRIETARY

2.2 Promptly after such notification for other than U.S. registered aircraft, Boeing will give Customer written notice as to whether such Aircraft can be delivered in its contract delivery month and in a configuration such that, if applicable, an Export Certificate of Airworthiness can be obtained for the desired country of registry requested.

2.3 In the event Boeing determines that obtaining such requested Export Certificate of Airworthiness would result in delivery of such Aircraft later than its contract delivery month, the Aircraft will be certified with an FAA Standard Airworthiness Certificate and Customer will, upon tender of delivery of the Aircraft in accordance with the Purchase Agreement, accept delivery of such Aircraft with such Standard Airworthiness Certificate.

3. Customer Support.

3.1 It is recognized by Boeing that the Lessees to be identified under paragraph 2 above may have different requirements with regard to the training, Materials and services described in Supplemental Exhibit CS1 (Customer Support Document) to the Purchase Agreement (CS1) applicable to the Aircraft. Customer will allocate to each Lessee a reasonable number of points from the total points available under Article 1 of Part 1 of the CS1 (Boeing Training Programs). To accommodate these varying requirements Customer may assign to Lessee in accordance with the provision of this Letter Agreement various rights described in the CS1 subject to the following limitations:

3.1.1 Lessees will each receive one (1) class of the training described pursuant to Article 1.2.1 of Part 1 of the CS1 (Flight dispatch model specific instruction) for each Aircraft leased, up to a maximum of two (2) classes per Lessee; and

3.1.2 Customer may allocate 1.2.2 and 1.2.3 of Part 1 of the CS1 to Lessee at Customer’s election; and

3.1.3 each Lessee will receive instructor pilots for sixty (60) Pilot Days for revenue service training assistance pursuant to Article 1.2.4 of Part 1 of the CS1, Additional Flight Operations Services, for the lease of one (1) aircraft, and each Lessee will receive ninety (90) Pilot Days of instructor pilots for such training for the lease of two (2) or more Aircraft; and

3.1.4 each Lessee must be the initial Lessee of the Aircraft, and

3.1.5 Boeing will have no obligation to provide the training and services described in Article 1.2 of Part 1 of the CS1 if such training has been provided to or is available to Lessee pursuant to the provisions of any other Boeing purchase agreement.

3.2 Prior to the provision of any training, services, or Materials to a Lessee under the CS1 (Customer Support Materials and Services), Customer and Lessee will enter into a partial assignment of certain rights and duties under the Purchase Agreement containing terms and conditions essentially as set forth in Attachment A to

 

Leasing Matters

  83   LA Page 3

BOEING PROPRIETARY


LOGO

 

this Letter Agreement. Such partial assignment will relate only to Customer Support Materials and Services, will not assign warranty or other rights under the Purchase Agreement, which will be reserved until delivery and assigned at that time, and will be subject to Boeing’s consent pursuant to the provisions of Article 9 of the AGTA. Notwithstanding the assignment described herein, Customer acknowledges that it remains responsible for performance of all the terms and conditions of the Purchase Agreement. In addition, Customer will require Lessee to provide to Boeing the protections described in Article 8 of the AGTA. Customer expressly agrees that Boeing’s providing all or part of the Customer Support Materials and Services prior to receipt of the insurance certificate described in Article 8 of the AGTA or other evidence of Lessee’s compliance with the provisions of Article 8 of the AGTA, will not release Customer from any responsibility described therein.

4. Other Agreement Requirements for Lessee.

4.1 It is understood that the Lessee of each Aircraft will require spare parts to support operations of the Aircraft. For any Lessee that has a spare parts general terms agreement (GTA) or a Customer Services General Terms Agreement (CSGTA) with Boeing, promptly after Lessee is identified in paragraph 2 above, Boeing will provide notice to Customer that the Lessee may enter into a GTA supplement or use the Lessee’s CSGTA for the acquisition of initial and sustaining spare parts for the leased Aircraft.

4.2 Boeing and Customer acknowledge that as the Lessee for the Aircraft are indentified, and before delivery of the Aircraft, additional agreements may need to be executed between Boeing and the Lessee addressing the following subjects:

4.2.1 Supplemental Agreement for Electronic Access (SA-EA) and Supplemental Agreement for e-Enabling (SA-eE), both supplemental agreements to the CSGTA.

4.2.2 Software provisions relating to 787 software license orders.

4.2.3 Post-delivery software and data loading provisions relating to the terms under which Boeing may offer to load Lessee’s operational software on the Aircraft after title transfer.

5. Schedule Requirements.

In the event of late notification by Customer of the identity of the Lessees as required by paragraph 2 above, Boeing’s ability to schedule and provide the Customer Support Materials and Services and initial provisioning of spare parts to support a Lessee’s operation of the Aircraft may be subject to subcontracting of such support services to third parties or to severe curtailment of Boeing’s obligations if such subcontracting is not practicable.

6. Assignment of Additional Rights at Delivery.

At the time of delivery by Boeing of any Aircraft to Customer and Customer’s re-delivery of an Aircraft to an initial Lessee, Customer and Lessee will enter into an assignment of the remaining rights and duties under the Purchase Agreement (including warranty rights), containing terms and conditions essentially as set forth in Attachment B to this Letter Agreement and subject to Boeing’s consent pursuant to the provisions of Article 9 of the AGTA.

7. Confidential Treatment.

The information contained herein represents confidential business information and has value precisely because it is not available generally or to other parties. Customer will limit the disclosure of its contents to (i) employees of Customer and (ii) advisors, including legal advisors to Customer, each with a need to know the contents for purposes of helping Customer perform its obligations under the Purchase Agreement and who understand they are not to disclose its contents to any other person or entity without the prior written consent of Boeing.

Subject:    Liquidated Damages – ****
Reference:    Purchase Agreement No. PA-04227 (Purchase Agreement) between The Boeing Company (Boeing) and Avolon Aerospace Leasing Limited (Customer) relating to Model 787-9 aircraft (Aircraft)

This letter agreement (Letter Agreement) amends and supplements the Purchase Agreement. All terms used but not defined in this Letter Agreement will have the same meaning as in the Purchase Agreement.

Definition of Terms:

****: Delay in delivery of any Aircraft beyond the last day of the delivery month (Scheduled Delivery Month) established in the Purchase Agreement by any cause that is **** and for which Customer is otherwise entitled to a remedy from Boeing pursuant to applicable law.

1. Liquidated Damages.

****The amount of liquidated damages will be derived from data in the most recent Aircraft Information Services, Inc. (AISI), Aircraft Value Analysis Company (AVAC), and Ascend (together, Industry Data) publications at the time Customer receives notice of a ****from Boeing. The Industry Data average for the most recent three (3) years of published lease rates for the (i) Boeing Model 787-89 aircraft (or a 787-8 model aircraft if Industry Data does not contain 787-9 data) or, if Customer elects to substitute 787-9 aircraft into 787-10 aircraft, (ii) the Boeing Model 787-10 (or a 787-9 model aircraft if Industry Data does not contain 787-10 data), as applicable, will be divided by thirty (30) days to determine the rate per day (Daily Rate). In no event will the amount paid exceed an aggregate sum of **** (Liquidated Damages). Liquidated Damages shall be payable at ****.

2. Interest.

In addition to the Liquidated Damages in paragraph 1, for each day of **** after the Scheduled Delivery Month, Boeing will pay Customer interest calculated as follows (Interest):

The product of the daily interest rate (computed by dividing the interest rate in effect for each day by three hundred sixty-five (365) days, or three hundred sixty-six (366) days, as the case may be) times the entire amount of advance payments received by Boeing for such Aircraft. The interest rate in effect for each day will be computed using ****. Such interest will be calculated on a simple interest basis and paid (i) in full at actual delivery of the Aircraft or (ii) pursuant to Section 4 below. The period of interest calculation will commence **** following the Scheduled Delivery Month and, in the case of Purchase Agreement termination with respect to any Aircraft, will end on the date Boeing returns advance payments, excluding the actual day of return.

3. Right of Termination.

Customer will not have the right to refuse to accept delivery of any Aircraft **** unless and until the aggregate duration of the **** for such Aircraft exceeds ****Period). Within ****of receipt of written notice from Boeing that delivery of an Aircraft will be delayed beyond the ****, either party may terminate the Purchase Agreement as to such Aircraft by written or telegraphic notice given to the other. If neither Party terminates the Purchase Agreement within said ****, then the Purchase Agreement will remain in effect for that Aircraft.

4. Termination: Payment.

If the Purchase Agreement is terminated with respect to any Aircraft for a ****, Boeing will pay Customer:

 

  (i) Liquidated Damages at the later to occur of: (a) **** of the Scheduled Delivery Month, or (b) **** business days after the effective date of the termination.

 

  (ii) Promptly after the effective date of the termination, pay Interest calculated and paid in full as described above.

 

  (iii) Promptly after the effective date of the termination, pay the **** received by Boeing for such Aircraft.

5. Exclusive Remedies.

The remedies set forth in this Letter Agreement are Customer’s exclusive remedies for a ****and are in lieu of all other damages, claims, and remedies of Customer arising at law or otherwise for **** in the Aircraft delivery. Customer hereby waives and renounces all other claims and remedies arising at law or otherwise for any such ****.

6. Assignment.

Notwithstanding any other provisions of the Purchase Agreement, the rights and obligations described in this Letter Agreement are provided to Customer in consideration of Customer taking title to the Aircraft at the time of delivery and leasing the Aircraft to a commercial operator and cannot be assigned in whole or, in part.

This letter agreement (Letter Agreement) amends and supplements the Purchase Agreement. All terms used but not defined in this Letter Agreement will have the same meaning as in the Purchase Agreement.

1. Aircraft Configuration.

1.1 Initial Configuration. The initial configuration of Customer’s Model 787-9 Aircraft has been defined by Boeing Model 787 Airplane Configuration Specification Document Number 787B1-4102 Rev. N dated April 15, 2014 which reflects the Boeing baseline Model Aircraft described in Table 1 and Exhibit A of the Purchase Agreement. Given the long period of time between Purchase Agreement signing and delivery of the first Aircraft, the final configuration of the Customer’s Aircraft has not yet been defined.

1.2 Final Configuration Schedule. Customer and Boeing hereby agree to complete the configuration of the Aircraft no later than **** using the then current Model 787 Airplane Configuration Specification Document (Final Configuration).

2. Code 1 Allocations.

Boeing shall have the right to limit the number of new customer introductions (Customer Intro Code 1) for the Aircraft in any calendar year based on resources available to accomplish required configuration changes and certification activity. If a requested Customer Intro Code 1 cannot be accomplished in the scheduled month of delivery for a particular Aircraft, Boeing shall notify Customer, and shall advise Customer as to the next available delivery month in which such Customer Intro Code 1 can be accomplished. In months where Customer Intro Code 1 capability is constrained, Boeing and Customer agree to use reasonable efforts to find a resolution satisfactory to both parties. For the avoidance of doubt, there will be one (1) Customer Intro Code 1 available to Customer, which is currently identified with the first Aircraft delivery shown on Table 1.

  (iv) Changes to the Optional Features Price, Aircraft Basic Price and the Advance Payment Base Price of the Aircraft to adjust for the difference between the estimated optional features amount and the price of the optional features reflected in the Customer Configuration Changes.

4. Other Letter Agreements.

Boeing and Customer acknowledge that as the definition of the Aircraft progresses, there may be a need to execute letter agreements addressing one or more of the following subjects:

 

  (i) Customer Software. Additional provisions relating to the loading of software owned by or licensed to Customer on the Aircraft at delivery.

 

  (ii) Installation of Cabin Systems Equipment. Additional provisions relating to the terms under which Boeing may offer and install in-flight entertainment systems and cabin communications systems in the Aircraft.
