An “Enhancement” is a request for a new report or application or an improvement to an existing application related to usability, performance, additional functionality, or flexibility. Enhancements will be logged in the Internet based customer support tool. Such requests can be in response to: |
a) | Mandates controlled by external third parties including governments, governing industry bodies such as International Air Transport Association [IATA], Société Internationale de Télécommunications Aéronautiques [SITA], or airport authorities. Examples include: |
• | Taxes, fees, security issues, immigration. |
• | Airport technology issues that impact airlines such as bag tag, Common Use Terminal Emulator (CUTE), or CUBE. |

If there is a disagreement as to the priority of the requested Enhancements, these will be decided between the NAVITAIRE Account Manager and the Customer Account Liaison. If this cannot be resolved at this level, it will be escalated to the respective Executive Sponsors for determination. |
Urgency |
Description | |
***** | A requirement from a business critical third party or other outside influence such as an airline buyout, purchase of another airline, a new government regulation, or a requirement that cannot be completed in a manual nature without severe negative impact. Such requests are Urgent only if a third party controls the requirement, it is non-discretionary to the customer, and the third party places an immediate time constraint on the customer.
Note: Documentation from the governing entity, which clearly states the nature of the requirement, the time frame allowed for implementation, and the penalties for non-compliance may be required. Due to the nature of an Emergency request, NAVITAIRE expects to receive no more than ***** such requests per year. Every attempt will be made to meet the established regulatory deadline communicated in these instances; however should the deadline be compromised NAVITAIRE will communicate specific issues that may make this deadline unattainable with an estimate of when it can be completed. |
Exhibit A - 63
Hosted Services Agreement
Examples:
• Adding Security Watch - a government or industry requirement that would inflict severe financial penalties if not met and demanded a quick implementation.
• Adding the EURO as a form of currency - a specific governmental requirement that was dictated to the customers and demanded a quick implementation. | ||
***** | A requirement from a business critical third party or outside influence such as an airline buyout, purchase of another airline, a new government regulation, or a requirement that cannot be completed in a manual nature without severe negative impact, but DOES NOT have an immediate time constraint placed on Customer by the third party.
Note: Such requests are classified as High to prevent them from becoming Very High/Emergencies. A new business requirement that cannot be completed in a manual nature without severe negative impact. Such requests are not Emergencies because the request is discretionary to the customer.
Examples:
• Printing French Itineraries for domestic French flights - a governmental requirement that provided sufficient time to respond to the need. Changing to a new bank - a customer-driven requirement that is critical to customer daily operations. | |
***** | Supports all required Hosted Services System operations; the request is required eventually but could wait until a later release if necessary. Would enhance the product, but the product is not unacceptable if absent. More of a want than a need, but would provide benefit to the customer.
Examples:
• Adding support of seat assignment capability for Computerized Reservation System (CRS) bookings.
• Adding new check-in commands or short-cuts that would save time and effort for the agents.
• Adding new features or functions in the Irregular Operations (IROP) program to increase efficiency of passenger handling. | |
***** | A functional or quality enhancement that corrects an aesthetic problem or improves usability from the customer’s perspective. It does not greatly affect or alter core functionality.
Examples:
• Enabling a pop-up message of “Are you sure” for bags weighing > 100Kg.
• Adding the ability to alter the ‘flow’ of the SkySpeed booking process as a user configurable option.
• Adding support for additional languages for SkySpeed (localization).
• Adding more feeds (imports or exports) to third party packages for data sharing.
• Making minor adjustments to screen layouts or design to increase readability.
• Adjusting reports to increase readability and decrease questions to support. |

8.7.5 | Release Stabilization Period. ***** Major Release as defined in this Exhibit A, Section 8.7.4, Hosted Services System performance for all or some of the Minimum System Availability Targets are subject to exemption during periods of time identified as Stabilization Periods. A Stabilization Period is defined as follows: |
• | As used herein, the term “Stabilization Period” means the first ***** following a Major Release. During the Stabilization Period incidents related to the functionality added for a particular third party service in the release that are directly related to that third party service are exempted from the Service Levels performance target. The Stabilization Period will not apply to Major Release ‘sub-releases’, fixes, ***** |
During this time NAVITAIRE will work with Customer to periodically evaluate and refine the service level measures applicable to such third party service offerings.
8.8 | Notification of Increased Usage. As previously stated in Section 4.3 of the Agreement, Customer agrees to use commercially reasonable efforts to provide NAVITAIRE with the designated advance notice of significant volume increases, according to a NAVITAIRE defined process. |
Due to the anticipated impact on performance of the Hosted Reservation Services, the first ***** following the increase in volume will be defined as a Stabilization Period. The purpose of this Stabilization Period is to allow the operation of the solution and the service level to stabilize from the influence of the increase in volume. During the Stabilization Period, NAVITAIRE will work with Customer to evaluate and refine the Service Levels targets. At the conclusion of the Stabilization Period, NAVITAIRE and Customer may mutually agree to revise Service Levels performance targets.

Hosted Services Agreement
Network Hardware, Software, and Data Circuits
• | Data Circuits: Customer must already have or must install the necessary equipment and circuits to support their primary revenue accounting site and any remote locations. NAVITAIRE requires a LAN/WAN network supporting TCP/IP protocols. |
• | Routers, DSU/CSUs, and Modems: Customer should contact NAVITAIRE for recent information regarding supported routers and other network communication equipment. |
• | IP Addressing: NAVITAIRE requires that all hosted Customers use Internet Registered IP addresses on all client workstations or devices that require connectivity to the Hosted Revenue Accounting Services. Alternatively, NAVITAIRE requires a NAT (Network Address Translation) router to be installed behind the NAVITAIRE gateway router. The NAT must then have the Internet Registered IP address. |
• | Customer Provided Data Circuits: NAVITAIRE requires a review of the proposed primary or backup data circuit(s) prior to a third party agreement and installation. Where possible, NAVITAIRE will use reasonable effort to provide all necessary specifications and extend management of the data circuit as permitted by Customer and the third party supplying the data circuit(s). |
8.2.1 | Data Circuits. Customer must arrange and pay for necessary circuits for Hosted Revenue Accounting Services file transmissions. NAVITAIRE may act as Customer’s agent to order and facilitate installation of these circuits upon written request by Customer. |
9 | System Errors and System Changes |
9.1 | System Errors |
9.1.1 | System Error Definition. A System Error occurs when functionality that is included in the NAVITAIRE product user documentation is currently not working on Customer’s site in all material respects consistent with the manner that it is described in the documentation. |
Note: | Customer must refer to the documentation that matches the version of software they are running. If Customer wants a feature that is not currently included in their software version, but the feature is included in a later software version, Customer must upgrade their software to that version to be able to take advantage of the new features and functionality. |
System Errors detected during testing in Customer’s test environment should also be logged through the NAVITAIRE internet support tool with a reference to the test database code. NAVITAIRE will respond to all Emergency INCs for the test environment within *****
9.1.2 | System Error Reporting. Customer may report an identified Hosted Revenue Accounting Services System Error at no additional cost using the Internet based customer support tool INC schema. A System Error is defined in Section 9.1.1 above. |
9.1.3 | System Error Classification. When Customer reports an INC for a System Error, it will be assigned a priority based on the severity of the issue. These priorities will be assigned using the following table: |

9.2 | System Changes |
9.2.1 | Change Control. Change control covers all events that impact application software, custom software, systems software, or hardware. The Change Control process effectively plans and facilitates changes to the Hosted Revenue Accounting Services system, including ownership for mitigating problems that may occur with a change to minimize any associated downtime. This function is responsible for coordinating and controlling all change administration activities (i.e., document, impact, authorize, schedule, implementation control), and determining if and when a change will be implemented in the production environment. |
9.2.2 | Enhancements. An “Enhancement” is a request for a new report or application or an improvement to an existing application related to usability, performance, additional functionality, or flexibility. Enhancements will be logged in the Support Center Support tool. Such requests can be in response to: |
a) | Mandates controlled by external third parties including governments, governing industry bodies such as International Air Transport Association [IATA], Société Internationale de Télécommunications Aéronautiques [SITA], or airport authorities. |
b) | Customer requests that are initiated through a direct request, user conference, or through Customer’s NAVITAIRE Account Manager. Examples include: |
• | Competitive advantage |
• | Improved passenger services |
• | Specific client requirements |
• | Improved business management |
c) | Internal requests that are initiated through the sales cycle, Technology, Development, or NAVITAIRE line of business. Examples include: |
• | Cost reduction initiatives |
Exhibit G - 85
Hosted Services Agreement
• | Product obsolescence |
• | Corporate business plan objective |
Efforts required to develop, implement, document, and/or train on Enhancements are payable by Customer.
9.2.3 | Urgency Classifications for Enhancements. Enhancements will be assigned a priority according to the criteria in the table below. If there is a disagreement as to the priority of the requested Enhancements, these will be decided between the NAVITAIRE Account Manager and the Customer Account Liaison. If this cannot be resolved at this level, it will be escalated to the respective Executive Sponsors for determination. |
Urgency |
Description | |
***** |
A requirement from a business critical third party or other outside influence such as an airline buyout, purchase of another airline, a new government regulation, or a requirement that cannot be completed in a manual nature without severe negative impact. Such requests are Urgent only if a third party controls the requirement, it is non-discretionary to the customer, and the third party places an immediate time constraint on the customer.
Note: Documentation from the governing entity, which clearly states the nature of the requirement, the time frame allowed for implementation, and the penalties for non-compliance may be required. Due to the nature of an Emergency request, NAVITAIRE expects to receive no more than ***** such requests per year. Every attempt will be made to meet the established regulatory deadline communicated in these instances; however should the deadline be compromised NAVITAIRE will communicate specific issues that may make this deadline unattainable with an estimate of when it can be completed. | |
***** |
A requirement from a business critical third party or outside influence such as an airline buyout, purchase of another airline, a new government regulation, or a requirement that cannot be completed in a manual nature without severe negative impact, but DOES NOT have an immediate time constraint placed on the customer by the 3rd party.
Note: Such requests are classified as High to prevent them from becoming Very High/Emergencies. A new business requirement that cannot be completed in a manual nature without severe negative impact. Such requests are not Emergencies because the request is discretionary to the customer. | |
***** |
Supports all required Hosted Services System operations; the request is required eventually but could wait until a later release if necessary. Would enhance the product, but the product is not unacceptable if absent. More of a want than a need, but would provide benefit to the customer. | |
***** |
A functional or quality enhancement that corrects an aesthetic problem or improves usability from the customer’s perspective. It does not greatly affect or alter core functionality.
Examples:
• Adding more feeds (imports or exports) to 3rd party packages for data sharing.
• Making minor adjustments to screen layouts or design to increase readability.
• Adjusting reports to increase readability and decrease questions to support. |
9.2.4 | Releases. NAVITAIRE software changes are bundled into work units called releases. The type and content of each release will vary. As previously stated in Section 4.12 of the Agreement, Customer is responsible for maintaining current versions ***** of the NAVITAIRE software and all costs associated with implementing a release. |
9.2.5 | Month End Closure. SkyLedger operates with ***** accounting periods open at all times. Prior to closing the accounting month end, Customers must ensure that following are managed: |
• | All flights for that month have been set to “Close” within the NAVITAIRE Reservation System. |
• | All no-show passengers on all flights for the month have been set to “No-Show”. |
• | Balance in the SkyLedger Suspense account has been cleared to “Nil” balance or to a reasonable level. |
Exhibit G - 86
Hosted Services Agreement
Customers are required to close the accounting period within the first ***** of the next month (e.g. ***** accounting month would be set to close by *****). Customers are requested to log an INC to request NAVITAIRE Operations to close the accounting month. For example:
• | ***** accounting periods are open |
• | ***** accounting period is closed no later than *****As soon as ***** is closed ***** accounting period will be open |
In the event Customer has not requested the earliest accounting period to be closed prior to the start of the ***** (in the example above this is *****) NAVITAIRE Operations will close the accounting period (***** in the above example). Customer will be provided ***** notice that the accounting period will be scheduled for closure. This is to ensure that September booking data can be loaded and accounting is generated without any delays.
If NAVITAIRE Operations confirms the accounting close is to be scheduled and Customer does not accept this, Customer will be responsible for any incurred costs associated with holding back and the loading of data for subsequent months. This effort is chargeable based on time and materials at the rates listed in Exhibit K.
