AIRCRAFT INTERCHANGE AGREEMENT
EXHIBIT 10.2
AIRCRAFT INTERCHANGE AGREEMENT
This AIRCRAFT INTERCHANGE AGREEMENT (the "Agreement") is made and entered into as of January 1, 2005, by and between Interface Operations LLC ("Interface"), and Las Vegas Sands Corp. ("LVSC").
In consideration of the mutual promises, agreements, covenants, warranties, representations and provisions contained herein, the parties agree as follows:
1. Interchange of the Aircraft. Each party represents to the other party that such party owns, leases or otherwise has exclusive possession and control of the aircraft set forth next to such party's name in Exhibit A (any one or more of such aircraft shall be referred to as the "Aircraft"). Subject to the terms and conditions contained herein, each party shall make available to the other party its Aircraft, with a flight crew, on an as-available basis, in exchange for equal flight time on such other party's Aircraft, together with a charge calculated in accordance with section 8(a) and Exhibit A to reflect the differential cost of owning, operating and maintaining the aircraft listed in Exhibit A which shall be paid as set forth in section 8(b). This Agreement is intended to be an interchange agreement within the meaning of 14 C.F.R. Section 91.501(c)(2).
2. Term. The term of this Agreement (the "Term") shall commence on the date of this Agreement and end one year thereafter (the "Expiration Date"). The Expiration Date (as it may be extended) shall be automatically extended by one year if neither party has given notice of non-renewal to the other at least 30 days before the then Expiration Date. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this section 2, either party may terminate this Agreement on 30 days' notice, provided that such party is not then in default.
3. Delivery. Upon the request of a party to the other party, subject to the availability of such other party's Aircraft at the time of such request for the flights proposed by such party, such other party shall deliver its Aircraft to such party at such location as such party may reasonably request. LVSC acknowledges that Interface currently bases its Aircraft at McCarran International Airport, Las Vegas, Nevada and Interface acknowledges that LVSC currently bases its Aircraft at McCarran International Airport, Las Vegas, Nevada (each base with respect to an Aircraft, as such base may be changed from time to time, shall be referred to as a "Home Base").
4. Return. On the earlier of the Expiration Date or the termination of this Agreement pursuant to section 14(a)(i) and, unless the other party agrees to the contrary, upon the conclusion of each flight of such other party's Aircraft on behalf of a party under this Agreement, such other party's Aircraft shall be returned to its Home Base or such other location as the parties may agree. For the sake of clarification, flight time to ferry an Aircraft to the delivery location specified by a party pursuant to section 3, and flights to return the Aircraft to the Home Base or such other location as the parties agree pursuant to this section 4, shall be deemed to be use of the Aircraft by such party.

The indemnifying party shall have the right to contest any Taxes, provided that (a) the indemnifying party shall have given to such other party written notice of any such Taxes, which notice shall state that such Taxes are being contested by the indemnifying party in good faith with due diligence and by appropriate proceedings and that the indemnifying party has agreed to indemnify each Indemnitee against any cost, expense, liability or loss (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys' fees) arising from or in connection with such contest; (b) in such other party's sole judgment, such other party has received adequate assurances of payment of such contested Taxes; and (c) counsel for such other party shall have determined that the nonpayment of any such Taxes or the contest of any such payment in such proceedings does not, in the sole opinion of such counsel, adversely affect the title, property or rights of such other party. In case any report or return is required to be made with respect to any Taxes, the indemnifying party will either (after notice to the other party) make such report or return in such manner as will show that such party owns, leases or otherwise has exclusive possession

(b) Without limiting the generality of section 9(a), a party using the other party's Aircraft pursuant to this Agreement shall pay to such other party any federal excise taxes applicable with respect to such party's use, or such party's payment for such party's use, of such other party's Aircraft.
