9.2.1 |
|
The Buyer will send its representatives to the Delivery Location to take Delivery of, and collect, the Aircraft within seven (7) days after the date on which the Aircraft is Ready for Delivery and will pay the Balance of the Final Price on or before the Delivery Date. |

The Seller will deliver and transfer good title to the Aircraft to the Buyer free and clear of all encumbrances (except any liens or encumbrances created by or on behalf of the Buyer) provided that the Balance of the Final Price of such Aircraft has been paid by the Buyer pursuant to Clause 5.4 and that the Certificate of Acceptance has been signed and delivered to the Seller pursuant to Clause 8.3. The Seller will provide the Buyer with a bill of sale in the form of Exhibit E (the “Bill of Sale”) and/or such other documentation confirming transfer of title and receipt of the Final Price of the Aircraft as may reasonably be requested by the Buyer. Title to and risk of loss of or damage to the Aircraft will pass to the Buyer contemporaneously with the delivery by the Seller to the Buyer of such Bill of Sale. |

Within the period set forth in Clause 9.2.1 above, if the Buyer fails to (i) deliver the signed Certificate of Acceptance to the Seller, or (ii) pay the Balance of the Final Price of the Aircraft to the Seller, then the Buyer will be deemed to have rejected Delivery wrongfully when the Aircraft was duly tendered to the Buyer hereunder. If such a deemed rejection arises, and in addition to the remedies of Clause 5.7.1, (a) the Seller will retain title to the Aircraft and (b) the Buyer will indemnify and hold the Seller harmless against any and all costs (including but not limited to any parking, storage, and insurance costs) and consequences resulting from the Buyer’s rejection (including but not limited to risk of loss of or damage to the Aircraft), it being understood that the Seller will be under no duty to the Buyer to store, park, insure or otherwise protect the Aircraft.

10.1 |
|
The Seller and any Affiliate of the Seller will not be responsible or be deemed to be in default of its obligations under this Agreement on account of delays in delivery or failure to deliver or other delays or failures in the performance of this Agreement, any part hereof, due to causes reasonably beyond the Seller’s control or not occasioned by the Seller’s fault or negligence of which Seller has notified Buyer in accordance with this sub-Clause 10.1 (“Excusable Delay”), including but not being limited to: acts of God or the public enemy, natural disasters, fires, floods, explosions or earthquakes; epidemics or quarantine restrictions; serious accidents; total or constructive total loss; any law, decision, regulation, directive or other act (whether or not having the force of law) of any government or of the Council of the European Community or the Commission of the European Community or of any national, Federal, State, municipal or other governmental department, commission, board, bureau, agency, court or instrumentality, domestic or foreign; governmental priorities or regulations or orders affecting allocation of materials or facilities or a completed Aircraft; war, civil war and warlike operations, terrorism, insurrection or riots; strikes or labor troubles causing cessation, slow down or interruption of work; delay after due and timely diligence in obtaining any airworthiness or type certification; inability after due and timely diligence to procure materials, accessories, equipment or parts; general hindrance in transportation. It is expressly understood and agreed that (i) any delay in delivery or otherwise in the performance of this Agreement by the Seller due in whole or in part to any delay in or failure of the delivery of, or any other event or circumstance relating to, the Propulsion Systems or Buyer Furnished Equipment or (ii) any delay caused by the Buyer’s negligence or the Buyer’s fault will each constitute Excusable Delay for the Seller. The Seller will as soon as practicable after becoming aware of any delay falling within the provisions of this sub-Clause 10.1 (i) exert all reasonable best efforts to minimize the effects of such occurrence, (ii) notify the Buyer of such delay and of the probable extent thereof and (iii) subject to the following provisions, as soon as practicable after the removal of the cause or causes for delay notify Buyer of the actual extent of the delay and resume the performance of those obligations affected under this Agreement. Seller will use due and timely diligence and all reasonable efforts to remove the cause or causes for delay. |
|
|
|
10.2 |
|
In the event that the delivery of an Aircraft will be delayed by reason of an Excusable Delay for a period of more than eighteen (18) months after the end of the calendar month in which delivery is otherwise required hereunder, the Buyer will be entitled to terminate this Agreement with respect to such Aircraft upon notice given to the Seller within thirty (30) days after the expiration of such eighteen (18) month period. In the event such delay will continue for an additional six (6) month period after the expiration of such eighteen (18) month period, either party will have the option to terminate this Agreement with respect to such Aircraft upon notice given to the other within thirty (30) days after the end of such additional six (6) month period. Such termination will discharge all obligations and liabilities of the parties hereunder with respect to such Aircraft, [*]. Notwithstanding the provisions of Clause 19, the Buyer will not be entitled [*] to terminate this Agreement as to any Aircraft under this Clause 10 by reason of an Excusable Delay if such delay is caused by the negligence or fault of the Buyer or its representatives. |

10.3 |
|
If the Seller concludes, based on its appraisal of the facts, that, due to Excusable Delay, delivery of an Aircraft will be delayed for a period of more than eighteen (18) months after the end of the calendar month in which delivery is otherwise required (unless the Seller concludes that, by reason of any Excusable Delay, delivery of such Aircraft will not occur), and as a result thereof in good faith and in accordance with its normal scheduling procedures internally reschedules delivery of such Aircraft to a date reflecting such delays, the Seller will notify the Buyer in writing of such delay and rescheduling or, as the case may be, of such non-delivery, (i) in the event of such delay or non-delivery, Buyer may terminate this Agreement or (ii) in the event of such non-delivery Seller may terminate this Agreement as to such Aircraft in each case by giving written notice to the other party within thirty (30) days after receipt by the Buyer of such notice of anticipated delay. Such termination will discharge all obligations and liabilities of the Buyer and Seller hereunder to the extent related to such Aircraft [*]. Notwithstanding the provisions of Clause 19, the Buyer will not be entitled [*] to terminate this Agreement as to any Aircraft under this Clause 10 by reason of an Excusable Delay if such delay is caused by the negligence or fault of the Buyer or its representative. |
|
|
|
10.4 |
|
If, following notice of an anticipated delay under sub-Clause 10.3, this Agreement, with respect to the affected Aircraft, is not terminated in accordance with the provisions of such sub-Clause, then the time of delivery otherwise required hereunder will be extended by a period equal to the delay specified in such notice. |
|
|
|
10.5 |
|
If an event occurs prior to delivery of an Aircraft which could result in such Aircraft being lost, destroyed or damaged beyond economic repair (“Total Loss”), the Seller will immediately notify Buyer of the occurrence of such event with the understanding that the Seller is still making its determination of what consequences such event has on the Aircraft. Should the Aircraft be subject to a Total Loss prior to delivery further to such event, a further notice will specify the earliest date reasonably possible, consistent with the Seller’s other contractual commitments and production capabilities, by which the Seller would be able to deliver a replacement for such Aircraft. This Agreement will terminate as to such Aircraft unless the Buyer gives the Seller written notice, within forty-five (45) days after receipt by the Buyer of the notice from the Seller of such Total Loss, that the Buyer desires the Seller to manufacture and deliver to the Buyer a replacement for such Aircraft. If the Buyer gives such notice to the Seller, the Seller will manufacture and deliver to the Buyer, at the earliest date reasonably possible consistent with the Seller’s other contractual commitments and production capabilities, an aircraft to replace the Aircraft subject to Total Loss, and the parties will execute an amendment to the Agreement to which such Aircraft subject to Total Loss related to evidence the delivery date for such replacement aircraft; provided, however, that nothing herein will obligate the Seller to manufacture and deliver such replacement aircraft if such manufacture would require the reactivation of its production line for the model of aircraft purchased hereunder. The terms and conditions of this Agreement applicable to the Aircraft subject to Total Loss will apply to the replacement aircraft. In the event of termination of this Agreement as to an Aircraft subject to Total Loss, the obligations and liabilities of the parties hereunder to the extent related to such Aircraft will be discharged.

|
|
|
|
|
|
(ii) |
any defect inherent in the Seller’s design of the installation, in consideration of the state of the art at the date of such design, which impairs the use of such items, will constitute a defect in design for the purpose of this Clause 12.1 and be covered by the warranty set forth in Clause 12.1.1 (iii). |

The Buyer’s remedy and the Seller’s obligation and liability under Clauses 12.1.1 and 12.1.2 are limited to, at the Seller’s expense and option, the repair, replacement or correction of any Warranted Part which is defective (or to the supply of modification kits rectifying the defect), together with a credit to the Buyer’s account with the Seller of an amount equal to the mutually agreed direct labor costs expended in performing the removal and the reinstallation thereof on the Aircraft at the labor rate defined in Clause 12.1.7.5. | |
|
|

|
|
The Seller may alternatively furnish to the Buyer’s account with the Seller a credit for the future purchase of goods and services (not including Aircraft or aircraft) equal to the price at which the Buyer is entitled to purchase a replacement for the defective Warranted Part. | |

|
|
| |
|
|
(i) |
that the Seller will not be responsible, nor be deemed to be in default on account of any delay in Delivery of any Aircraft or otherwise in respect of the performance of this Agreement, due to the Seller’s undertaking to make such correction and provided further |
|
|
|
|
|
|
(ii) |
that, rather than accept a delay in the Delivery of any such Aircraft, the Buyer and the Seller may agree to deliver such Aircraft with subsequent correction of the defect by the Buyer at the Seller’s expense, or the Buyer may elect to accept Delivery and thereafter file a Warranty Claim as though the defect had become apparent immediately after Delivery of such Aircraft. |

|
|
| |
|

(i) |
such inspections are recommended by a Seller Service Bulletin to be performed within the Warranty Period; |
|
|
|
|
|
|
(ii) |
the reimbursement will not apply for any inspections performed as an alternative to accomplishing corrective action as recommended by the Seller when such corrective action has been made available to the Buyer and such corrective action could have reasonably been accomplished by the Buyer at the time such inspections are performed or earlier. |

|
|
|
|
|
(iii) |
the labor rate for the reimbursement will be the Inhouse Warranty Labor Rate, and |

|
Claim Determination | |
|
|
| |
|
|
Determination as to whether any claimed defect in any Warranted Part is a valid Warranty Claim will be made by the Seller and will be based upon the claim details, reports from the Seller’s Representatives, historical data logs, inspections, tests, findings during repair, defect analysis and other relevant documents and information. | |

|
If the Seller determines that a defect subject to this Clause 12.1 justifies the dispatch by the Seller of a working team to repair or correct such defect through the embodiment of one or several Seller’s Service Bulletins at the Buyer’s facilities, or if the Seller accepts the return of an Aircraft to perform or have performed such repair or correction, then the labor costs for such on-Aircraft work will be borne by the Seller. | |

Interface Problem | |
|
|
| |
|
|
If the Buyer experiences any technical problem in the operation of an Aircraft or its systems due to a malfunction, the cause of which, after due and reasonable investigation, is not readily identifiable by the Buyer but which the Buyer reasonably believes to be attributable to the design characteristics of one or more components of the Aircraft (“Interface Problem”), the Seller will, if so requested by the Buyer, and without additional charge to the Buyer except for transportation of the Seller’s or its designee’s personnel to the Buyer’s facilities, promptly conduct or have conducted an investigation and analysis of such problem to determine, if possible, the cause or causes of the problem and to recommend such corrective action as may be feasible.

|
|
|

The Seller will promptly advise the Buyer of such corrective action as may be proposed by the Seller and any such Supplier.

|
|
| |||
18.2.5.1 |
|
Should the Buyer wish to incorporate Buyer proprietary branding features (logos, decors and/or colours) (hereinafter “Branding Features”) into ACS Equipment, the Buyer will inform the Seller thereof in due time and the Seller and the corresponding ACS Supplier will conduct a feasibility study of the Buyer’s request, considering technical, manufacturing and commercial constraints. It is understood between the parties that, irrespective of any other consideration, the request will only be accepted if it is compatible with: | |||
|
|
| |||
|
|
|
n |
the prerequisites, including but not limited to location, type and size of branding features, which will be set forth in the then applicable A350XWB Family Aircraft Description Document; and | |
|
|
|
|
| |
|
|
|
n |
the lead-time notified by the Seller to the Buyer and required by the ACS Supplier to implement the Branding Features and qualify the Branded ACS Equipment, and | |
|
|
|
|
| |
|
|
|
n |
the Seller’s industrial planning and the associated Scheduled Delivery Month for the Buyer’s Aircraft. | |
|
|
| |||
18.2.5.2 |
|
The Buyer shall also be responsible or shall cause the ACS Supplier to ensure that such Branding Features shall: | |||
|
|
| |||
|
|
i) |
not infringe any patent, copyright or other intellectual property right of the Seller or any third party, and | ||
|
|
|
| ||
|
|
ii) |
not be subject to any legal obligation or other encumbrance that may prevent, hinder or delay the installation of the Branded ACS Equipment in the Aircraft and/or the Delivery of the Aircraft. | ||
|
|
| |||
18.2.5.3 |
|
Should the Seller agree with the ACS Supplier by TCM that the latter will develop the change required to implement the Branding Features, the associated development and implementation costs from the ACS Supplier will be at the Buyer’s expense. | |||
|
|
| |||
|
|
The parties will, if relevant, enter into an SCN as set forth in Clause 2.2.1 setting out the impact of the Branding Features on, inter alia, the Specification and/or price of the Aircraft. | |||
|
|
| |||
|
|
The Seller shall be entitled to refuse any item of Branded ACS Equipment that it considers incompatible with the Specification, the interface documentation requirements or the certification requirements, provided such incompatibility is not resulting from a failure of the Seller in performing the above feasibility study. | |||
|
|
| |||
18.2.5.4 |
|
Should the Branding Feature incorporated in a Branded ACS Equipment not be qualified by the “Qualification Date”, and therefore jeopardizing the qualification or the on-time delivery of such Branded ACS Equipment, the Buyer will choose for the Aircraft, within a maximum of ten (10) days after the Qualification Date, an | |||
EXECUTION VERSION – Air Lease Corporation |
|
A350XWB Family Purchase Agreement – Ref. CLC-CT1103521 |

|
|
| |
18.2.5.5 |
|
If no alternative choice is made by the Buyer within a maximum of ten (10) days after the Qualification Date, the performance of any act to be performed by the Seller may be delayed, including Delivery of the Aircraft. | |
|
|
| |
|
|
The Seller shall not be responsible for such delay which shall cause the Final Contract Price of the Aircraft to be adjusted in accordance with the updated delivery schedule and to include in particular the amount of the Seller’s additional costs attributable to such delay or failure by the Buyer or the ACS Suppliers, such as storage, taxes, insurance and costs of out-of-sequence installation. | |
|
|
| |
|
|
| |
|
|
In addition, the Seller may: | |
|
|
| |
|
|
(i) |
select, purchase and install in the Aircraft the same ACS Equipment but with an alternative branding solution out of the then applicable A350XWB Family Aircraft Description, in which event the Final Price of the affected Aircraft will also be increased by the purchase price of such equipment plus reasonable costs and expenses incurred by the Seller for handling charges, transportation, insurance, packaging and, if so required and not already provided for in the Final Price of the affected Aircraft, for adjustment and calibration; or |
|
|
|
|
|
|
(ii) |
if the Branded ACS Equipment is delayed by more than [*] days beyond, or is not approved within [*] days of the requested on-dock dates, deliver the Aircraft without the installation of such Branded ACS Equipment, notwithstanding applicable terms of Clause 7, if any, and the Seller will thereupon be relieved of all obligations to install such equipment. |

February 1, 2013
Subject : European Export Credit Financing
AIR LEASE CORPORATION (the “Buyer”) and AIRBUS S.A.S. (the “Seller”) have entered into an A350XWB Family Purchase Agreement (the “Agreement”) dated 1st February 2013 which covers the manufacture and the sale by the Seller and the purchase by the Buyer of the Aircraft as described in the Agreement.
Capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined in this Letter Agreement shall have the meanings assigned thereto in the Agreement.
Both parties agree that this Letter Agreement, upon execution thereof, shall constitute an integral, non-severable part of said Agreement and shall be governed by all its provisions, as such provisions have been specifically amended pursuant to this Letter Agreement.
If requested by the Buyer, the Seller shall support the Buyer by applying to the Export Credit Agencies of France (COFACE), Germany (EULER HERMES) and the United Kingdom (ECGD) (the “Export Credit Agencies”) with a view to obtaining financing through European Export Credit for the acquisition of an Aircraft (including the engines installed on such Aircraft). In this respect, the Seller and the Buyer shall need to co-operate closely to provide all necessary information as may be requested by the Export Credit Agencies, including detailed financial information, in due course.
Subject (i) to the approval of the European authorities responsible for export credits and (ii) to the unrestricted support of the Export Credit Agencies, an export credit facility (the “Facility”) in respect of an Aircraft as described hereafter may be granted to the Buyer (each such Aircraft hereafter referred to as a “Relevant Aircraft”).
The Facility shall include guarantees given by each Export Credit Agency in favour of international lending banks of recognised standing acceptable to the Export Credit Agencies (the “Banks).
The terms and conditions under which a Facility may be granted to the Buyer as at the date hereof are described in the attached Appendix A. Such terms and conditions are subject to amendment by the Export Credit Agencies and shall reflect the then prevailing terms of export credit for civil aircraft as governed by the Organisation for Economic Cooperation and Development (“OECD”). Upon request, the Seller will provide the Buyer with the latest version of the Appendix A reflecting the prevailing terms at the time.

LETTER AGREEMENT N°9
APPENDIX A
GENERAL TERMS AND CONDITIONS
Capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined in this Appendix shall have the meanings assigned thereto in the Agreement or as defined in the Sector Understanding on Export Credit for Civil Aircraft as entered into force on February 1, 2011 as may be further amended from time to time by the OECD.
Unless otherwise stated or decided by the Export Credit Agencies in their sole discretion, the following general terms and conditions shall apply to the Facility:
1 Purpose and Amount
The amount of the Facility shall be up to a maximum of eighty-five percent (85%) if the Buyer is in risk category 2 or below, up to a maximum of eighty percent (80%) if the Buyer is in risk category 1, or such lesser percentage as may be selected by the Buyer or imposed by the Export Credit Agencies, in each case of the Net Aircraft Price of the Relevant Aircraft.
The list of these risk categories is defined by experts nominated by the members of the OECD. Such list is confidential to the OECD members and is updated on an on-going basis. The risk classifications reflect the senior unsecured credit rating of the Buyer (see Table 1 in appendix).
The Net Aircraft Price shall be equal to the Final Price (as defined in the Agreement) of the Relevant Aircraft including the engines/propulsion systems (the “Engines”) installed on such Relevant Aircraft after taking into account all price discounts and other cash credits, less all other credits or concessions of any kind of the Seller and/or the selected engine/propulsion system manufacturer (the “Engine Manufacturer”) related or fairly allocable thereto.
Subject to the Export Credit Agencies’ prior approval, the Net Aircraft Price may include Buyer Furnished Equipment installed on the Relevant Aircraft in an amount agreed by the Export Credit Agencies.
As requested by the Export Credit Agencies, the Buyer shall provide the Seller with a declaration signed by the selected Engine Manufacturer, indicating the total amount of the credit memoranda made available to the Buyer with respect to the Engines installed on the relevant Aircraft.
2 Participation and Currencies
The level of participation in the Facility from the British, French and German Export Credit Agency shall depend on the aircraft type and the Engine selected by the Buyer.
The Buyer may select from the following eligible currencies the currency in which he wishes to denominate the Facility.
The currencies that are eligible for such Facility are Euros (“EUR”), Japanese Yen (“JPY”), UK Sterling Pounds (“GBP”), US Dollars (“USD”) and other fully convertible currencies for which there are market references.

LETTER AGREEMENT N°9
3 Drawdowns and Payment to the Seller
The Facility relating to the Relevant Aircraft shall be drawn down upon delivery of such Relevant Aircraft and shall be disbursed directly to the Seller upon satisfactory presentation, inter alia, of the following documents:
(i) an aircraft invoice issued by the Seller and
(ii) the Certificate of Acceptance
in each case in respect of the Relevant Aircraft duly signed by a representative of the Buyer
Notwithstanding any decision by the Buyer to select a currency or currencies other than USD, the Seller shall receive the Final Price in USD at delivery of the Relevant Aircraft.
4 Term and Repayment of the Facility
The term of the Facility (the “Term”) shall not exceed twelve (12) years.
Unless otherwise decided by the Export Credit Agencies in their sole discretion, the British, French and German portions shall be repayable in a series of annuity style equal payments of rent in the case of a Lease Facility (as defined below) to amortise the Facility in respect of the Relevant Aircraft to zero over the Term.
There shall be no extension of the repayment Term by way of sharing of rights in the security on a pari passu basis with commercial lenders for the officially supported export credit.
The period between each payment shall be no greater than three (3) months and the first payment shall become payable no later than three (3) months after delivery of the Relevant Aircraft.
5 Interest
Interest on the Facility shall be payable in arrears on the unpaid balance of principal,
on the same date as and together with the instalments of principal except when lease payments in advance are requested as a Risk Mitigant (as defined below) and in the currency(ies) in which the Facility is denominated.
The rate of interest shall be negotiated directly with the Banks and shall be either a floating rate or a fixed rate. Subject to the Export Credit Agencies’ prior approval, the Facility may also include an option to switch from a floating rate to a fixed rate on terms and conditions to be defined.
6 Expenses and Taxes
The Buyer shall be responsible for all legal expenses, professional fees as well as taxes and other costs arising out of or in connection with the application for, the provision and administration of the Facility, including the Export Credit Agencies’ travel expenses related to the Buyer’s presentation and/or to the negotiation of the Facility, whether or not the Facility is actually used. All corporate and governmental approvals necessary for the performance of the Buyer’s obligations under the Facility shall be obtained by the Buyer so that the payment of all amounts due to the Banks shall be satisfied without delay, such payments to be without deduction on account of any existing or future withholding taxes, charges, levies or other duties whatsoever. If however any such deduction has to be made, the Buyer shall

|
|
LETTER AGREEMENT N°9
compensate the Banks for such deduction and shall obtain all necessary approvals for this purpose so that the Banks receive the same net amount as they would have received had no such deduction been made.
7 Security and Form of the Facility
As security for the repayment of the Facility, the Buyer shall provide a full security package satisfactory to the Export Credit Agencies and the Banks.
The standard form of the Facility shall be a finance lease (the “Lease Facility”). Under the Lease Facility, the Banks shall create a special purpose vehicle (“SPV”) which (i) shall receive title to the Relevant Aircraft pursuant to an assignment to the SPV of the relevant rights and obligations of the Buyer under the Agreement, and (ii) shall lease such Relevant Aircraft to the Buyer for the Term of the Facility.
Upon expiry of the Lease Facility and provided that no event of default has occurred or is continuing and provided no cross default and no cross collateralization have been called by the ECAs, the Buyer shall be entitled to purchase the Relevant Aircraft for the greater of the amount of 1$ and the outstanding amount due under the Lease Facility. Upon the exercise by the Buyer of the purchase option and payment of all amounts due under the Lease Facility, title to the Relevant Aircraft shall be transferred from the SPV to the Buyer simultaneously.
8 Premium
The premium to be paid up-front by the Buyer to the Export Credit Agencies in respect of the Facility shall be decided by the Export Credit Agencies. It shall be no less than the Minimum Premium Rates, or if the operator of the aircraft object (and, if different, the borrower/buyer or lessor if, in view of the government providing the official support, the structure of the transaction so warrants) is based in a State where the Cape Town Convention applies, the Minimum Premium Rates with a reduction of 10% [Table 1 sets out the current Minimum Premium Rates with and without the Cape Town discount.]
The Minimum Premium Rate incorporates (i) a Risk Based Rate which is reset every year to reflect Moody’s annual Loss Given Default over a four-year period, and (ii) a Market Reflective Surcharge which is adjusted every quarter.
The calculation of the Risk Based Rate depends on the risk classification of the Buyer. The premium payable is expressed as a percentage of the amount of the Facility granted by the Export Credit Agencies.
The Buyer may benefit from a 10% Premium reduction if the Buyer and the operator of the aircraft the subject of the ECA application is based in a jurisdiction that has ratified the Cape Town Convention with the qualifying declarations as defined by the OECD and has incorporated the Treaty in its set of domestic laws.
9 Main Terms of Financing
The Export Credit Agencies may, upon request of the Buyer, agree to provide financing support at or above the Minimum Premium Rate if all the conditions below are fulfilled to the satisfaction of the Export Credit Agencies and the Banks:
