7.1 Facilities Requirements. Provided Customer, its Authorized Agent or
its third party contractor, as appropriate, are certified by the appropriate
Civil Aviation Authority or Federal Aviation Authority, Customer or its
Authorized Agent may, at its option, Correct defective Boeing Products at its
facilities, or may subcontract Corrections to a third party contractor.
7.2 Technical Requirements. All Corrections done by Customer, its
Authorized Agent or a third party contractor must be performed in accordance
with Boeing's applicable service manuals, bulletins or other written
instructions, using parts and materials furnished or approved by Boeing.
7.3 Reimbursement.
7.3.1 Boeing will reimburse Customer's reasonable costs of Direct
Materials and Direct Labor (excluding time expended for overhaul) at Customer's
Warranty Labor Rate to Correct a defective Boeing Product. Claims for
reimbursement must contain sufficient information to substantiate Direct Labor
hours expended and Direct Materials consumed. Customer or its Authorized Agent
may be required to produce invoices for materials.
7.3.2 Reimbursement for Direct Labor hours to perform Corrections
stated in a service bulletin will be based on the labor estimates in the service
bulletin.
7.3.3 Boeing will reimburse Customer's freight charges associated
with a Correction of a defect on a Boeing Product performed by its Authorized
Agent or a third party contractor.
7.4 Disposition of Defective Boeing Products Beyond Economical Repair.
C
7.4.1 A defective Boeing Product found to be beyond economical
repair (see Para. 4.5 Maximum Reimbursement) will be retained for a period of 60
days from the date Boeing receives Customer's claim. During the 60 day period,
Boeing may request return of such Boeing Products for inspection and
confirmation of a defect.
7.4.2 After the 60 day period, a defective Boeing Product with a
value of U.S. $2000 or less may be scrapped without notification to Boeing. If
such Boeing Product has a value greater than U.S. $2000, Customer must obtain
confirmation of unrepairability by Boeing's on-site Customer Services
Representative prior to scrapping. Confirmation may be in the form of the
Representative's signature on Customer's claim or through direct communication
between the Representative and Boeing Product Assurance Contracts.
8. Corrections Performed by Boeing.
8.1 Freight Charges. Customer or its Authorized Agent will pay shipping
charges to return a Boeing Product to Boeing. Boeing will reimburse Customer or
its Authorized Agent for the charge for any item determined to be defective
under this Aircraft General Terms Agreement. Boeing will pay shipping charges to
return the Corrected Boeing Product.
8.2 Customer Instructions. The documentation shipped with the returned
defective Boeing Product may include specific technical instructions for
additional work to be performed on the Boeing Product. The absence of such
instructions will evidence Customer's authorization for Boeing to perform all
necessary Corrections and work required to return the Boeing Product to a
serviceable condition.
8.3 Correction Time Objectives.
8.3.1 Boeing's objective for making Corrections is 10 working days
for avionics and electronic Boeing Products, 30 working days for Corrections of
other Boeing Products performed at Boeing's facilities, and 40 working days for
Corrections of other Boeing Products performed at a Boeing subcontractor's
facilities. The objectives are measured from the date Boeing receives the
defective Boeing Product and a valid claim to the date Boeing ships the
Correction.
8.3.2 If Customer has a critical parts shortage because Boeing has
exceeded a Correction time objective and Customer has procured spare Boeing
Products for the defective Boeing Product in quantities shown in Boeing's
Recommended Spare Parts List (RSPL) or Spares Planning and Requirements
Evaluation Model (M-SPARE), then Boeing will either expedite the Correction or
provide an interchangeable Boeing Product on a no charge loan or lease basis
until the Corrected Boeing Product is returned.
8.4 Title Transfer and Risk of Loss.
8.4.1 Title to and risk of loss of any Boeing Product returned to
Boeing will at all times remain with Customer or any other title holder of such
Boeing Product. While Boeing has possession of the returned Boeing Product,
Boeing will have only such liabilities as a bailee for mutual benefit would
have, but will not be liable for loss of use.
C
8.4.2 If a Correction requires shipment of a new Boeing Product,
then at the time Boeing ships the new Boeing Product, title to and risk of loss
for the returned Boeing Product will pass to Boeing, and title to and risk of
loss for the new Boeing Product will pass to Customer.
9. Returning an Aircraft.
9.1 Conditions. An aircraft may be returned to Boeing's facilities for
Correction only if:
(i) Boeing and Customer agree a covered defect exists;
(ii) Customer lacks access to adequate facilities, equipment or
qualified personnel to perform the Correction; and
(iii) it is not practical, in Boeing's estimation, to dispatch
Boeing personnel to perform the Correction at a remote site.
9.2 Correction Costs. Boeing will perform the Correction at no charge to
Customer. Subject to the conditions of Paragraph 9.1 of Part 2 of Exhibit C to
this AGTA, Boeing will reimburse Customer for the costs of fuel, oil and landing
fees incurred in ferrying the aircraft to Boeing and back to Customer's
facilities. Customer will minimize the length of both flights.
9.3 Separate Agreement. Boeing and Customer will enter into a separate
agreement covering return of the aircraft and performance of the Correction.
Authorization by Customer for Boeing to perform additional work that is not part
of the Correction must be received within 24 hours of Boeing's request. If such
authorization is not received within 24 hours, Customer will be invoiced for
work performed by Boeing that is not part of the Correction.
10. Insurance.
The provisions of Article 8.2 "Insurance", of this AGTA, will apply to any
work performed by Boeing in accordance with Customer's specific technical
instructions, to the extent any legal liability of Boeing is based upon the
content of such instructions.

COPA HOLDINGS, S.A.
ESCALATION ADJUSTMENT
AIRFRAME AND OPTIONAL FEATURES
(FOR MODEL 717-200, 737-600, 737-700, 737-800 AND 737-900,
THE AIRFRAME PRICE INCLUDES THE ENGINE PRICE AT ITS BASIC THRUST LEVEL.)
D
EXHIBIT D
ESCALATION ADJUSTMENT
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 the applicable 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:
P(a) = (P+B)(L + M) - P
Where:
P(a) = Airframe Price Adjustment. (For Model 717-200, 737-600,
737-700, 737-800 and 737-900, the Airframe Price includes the
Engine Price at its basic thrust level.)
L = .65 x ECI where ECI(b) is the base year index (as set
--- forth in Table 1 of the applicable purchase
ECI(b) agreement)
M = .35 x ICI where ICI(b) is the base year index (as set
--- forth in Table 1 of the applicable purchase
ICI(b) agreement)
P = Airframe Price plus Optional Features Price (as set forth in
the applicable purchase agreement).
B = 0.005 x (N/12) x (P) where N is the calendar month and year
of scheduled Aircraft delivery minus the
calendar month and year of the Base Price
Year, both as shown in Table 1 of the
applicable purchase agreement.
ECI is a value determined using the U.S. Department of Labor, Bureau
of Labor Statistics "Employment Cost Index for workers in aerospace
manufacturing - Wages and Salaries" (ECI code 3721W), calculated by
establishing a three-month arithmetic average value (expressed as a
decimal and rounded to the nearest tenth) using the values for the
fifth, sixth and seventh 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 month of March will be used for the months of January and
February; the value for June
D
used for April and May; the value for September used for July and
August; and the value for December used for October and November.
ICI is a value determined using the U.S. Department of Labor, Bureau
of Labor Statistics "Producer Prices and Price Index - Industrial
Commodities Index ", calculated as a 3-month arithmetic average of
the released monthly values (expressed as a decimal and rounded to
the nearest tenth) using the values for the 5th, 6th and 7th 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 January, the months June, July and August of the preceding
year will be utilized in determining the value of ECI and ICI.
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. .65 is the numeric ratio attributed to labor in the Airframe Price
Adjustment formula.
iii. .35 is the numeric ratio attributed to materials in the Airframe
Price Adjustment formula.
iv. The denominators (base year indices) are the actual average values
reported by the U.S. Department of Labor, Bureau of Labor Statistics
(base year June 1989 = 100). The applicable base year and corresponding
denominator will be provided by Boeing in the applicable purchase
agreement.
v. If the calculated sum of L + M is less than 1.0000, then the value
of the sum is adjusted to 1.0000.
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 ICI 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 24 months
after delivery of the aircraft, the Bureau of Labor Statistics should resume
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.
D
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 ICI 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
Purchase Price of any affected aircraft to reflect an allowance for increases or
decreases in labor compensation and material costs occurring since February,
1995, which is consistent with the applicable provisions of paragraph 1 of this
Exhibit D.
Note: i. The values released by the Bureau of Labor Statistics and available to
Boeing 30 days prior to the scheduled delivery month of an aircraft will
be used to determine the ECI and ICI 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 Aircraft
Price Adjustments will be made after Aircraft delivery for any subsequent
changes in published Index values.
ii. The maximum number of digits utilized in any part of the Airframe
Price Adjustment equation will be 4, where rounding of the fourth
digit will be increased to the next highest digit when the 5th digit is
equal to 5 or greater.
