BUYER must specify all standard options and modifications, including modifications to the exterior finishing, interior furnishings and avionics of the P-180 Avanti II aircraft being sold pursuant to this Agreement (the “Aircraft”) by submitting its request no later than nine months before the Scheduled Delivery Date (the “Options Closing Date”). Any such standard specifications will result in purchase price adjustment in accordance with SELLER’S Optional Equipment Price List specified in Exhibit A (the “Optional Equipment Price List”) valid at the Options Closing Date.

All such price adjustments will be included in the Balance Due on Delivery. SELLER shall be entitled to, and BUYER agrees to pay, the amount of $[***] for each day of delay thereafter in providing those standard specifications. In addition, in the event such delay exceeds thirty (30) days, SELLER shall have the right to reposition the Aircraft in its production cycle and adjust the Scheduled Delivery Date accordingly, and/or to make choices on BUYER’s behalf with respect to such optional equipment and modifications, in each case in its sole discretion upon written notice to BUYER.

In addition to the standard specifications, BUYER may request additional non-standard optional equipment or modifications, from the Optional Equipment List identified in Exhibit A hereto (the “Optional Equipment List”) or otherwise. BUYER must submit its final order for all such requests by the Options Closing Date. If the installation of BUYER’S Options would increase the time required to complete the Aircraft, the Scheduled Delivery Date will be adjusted accordingly.

For non-standard specifications that are on the Optional Equipment List, there will be a purchase price adjustment in the amount specified on the Optional Equipment Price List on the Options Closing Date. For any other non-standard specifications, SELLER will provide BUYER an estimate of the additional cost and there will be a purchase price adjustment in this estimated amount.

SELLER agrees to fulfill all requests for non-standard specifications that are on the Optional Equipment List and that are submitted by the Options Closing Date.

EXHIBIT B

P.180 Avanti II Sales Price

Contractual Price Escalation Formula

The price of the Aircraft shall be $[***], expressed in January 0000, Xxxxxx Xxxxxx dollars (“The Reference Price”), escalated to the estimated date of final delivery of the Aircraft (“The Escalated Price”), by an index determined through the analysis of prices of “competitive aircraft”. The “competitive aircraft” are determined by an objective analysis of list price, zero fuel weight, passenger load, and range. The following steps are taken in order to determine the escalation factor:

Each aircraft determined to be competitive is weighted according to unit sales volume so that the total equals the total universe or 1.

The year-to-year change in list price for each aircraft (as published in the Business and Commercial Aviation Annual Purchase Planning Handbook) is then multiplied by the weighting factor.

The price escalation factor is determined by the sum of the two preceding steps.

The Escalated Price shall be equal to the Reference Price, multiplied by an escalation factor as calculated in (a), (b) and (c) below:

The initial list of competitive aircraft is comprised of:

		Weighting
1)	Xxxxxx XX 2+	[***]
2)	Cessna CJ3	[***]
3)	Cessna Citation Bravo	[***]
4)	Beechcraft King Air B200	[***]
5)	Beechcraft King Air 350	[***]
6)	Beechcraft Premier I	[***]
7)	Hawker 400XP	[***]

The year-to-year percentage price increase as reported in the Business & Commercial Aviation Annual Purchase Planning Handbook is as follows:

Aircraft	2005	2004	2003
	[***]	[***]	[***]
Xxxxxx XX 2+	[***]	[***]	[***]
Cessna CJ3	[***]	[***]	[***]
Cessna Citation Bravo	[***]	[***]	[***]
Beechcraft King Air B200	[***]	[***]	[***]
Beechcraft King Air 350	[***]	[***]	[***]
Beechcraft Premier 1	[***]	[***]	[***]
Hawker 400XP	[***]	[***]	[***]

[***] Confidential information has been omitted and filed separately with the Securities and Exchange Commission pursuant to a confidential treatment request.

Exhibit B-1

The year-to-year weighted percentage price increase and resulting Escalation Index based on the data above Is as follows:

Aircraft	Weight	2005	2004	2003

Xxxxxx XX 2+	[***]	[***]	[***]	[***]
Cessna CJ3	[***]	[***]	[***]	[***]
Cessna Citation Bravo	[***]	[***]	[***]	[***]
Beechcraft King Air B200	[***]	[***]	[***]	[***]
Beechcraft King Air 350	[***]	[***]	[***]	[***]
Beechcraft Premier I	[***]	[***]	[***]	[***]
Hawker 400XP	[***]	[***]	[***]	[***]
	[***]	[***]	[***]	[***]
Yearly Escalation Index	[***]	[***]	[***]	[***]

On an annual basis, due to unforeseen and changing market conditions, either the BUYER or the SELLER may request that the list of “competitive aircraft” be reviewed and amended to reflect current market conditions. Should the parties be unable to agree on the competitive aircraft to be included in the calculations, the list of competitive aircraft will include all competitive aircraft that meet the following criteria:

Zero Fuel Weight between 9,500 pounds and 13,000 pounds.

Must have a minimum of 7 certified passenger seats and 2 crew seats.

Must have a list price within $2,000,000 of the previous years list price of the Avanti II as listed in Business & Commercial Aviation.

Must have a published ferry range of between 1,350 nm and 2,000 nm.

A sales volume for that year of at least 10 aircraft.

Solely as an example of how to conduct the calculations contemplated in this provision, with the Reference Price set at January 2006 ($[***]), and the calendar month prior to delivery being March 2008, using the yearly escalation index of years 2004 and 2005 (as a substitute for years 2007 and 2008) reported in section c above as the sample Escalation Index, the Escalated Price would be calculated as follows:

Escalated Price equals [***]
