12.3.2.1

If any Supplier under any warranty referred to in Clause 12.3.1 defaults in the performance of any material obligation under such warranty with respect to a Supplier Part and the Buyer submits reasonable evidence, within a reasonable time, that such default has occurred, then Clause 12.1 of this Agreement will apply to the extent it would have applied had such Supplier Part been a Warranted Part, to the extent the Seller can reasonably perform said Supplier’s obligations, except that the Supplier’s warranty period indicated in the Supplier Product Support Agreements will apply.

If any Supplier under any Supplier service life policy referred to in to Clause 12.3.1 defaults in the performance of any material obligation under such service life policy, and (i) the Buyer has used its best efforts to enforce its rights under such service life policy, and (ii) the Buyer submits within reasonable time to the Seller reasonable evidence that such default has occurred, then Clause 12.2 of this Agreement will apply to the extent the same would have applied had such component, equipment, accessory or part been listed in Exhibit F hereto, to the extent that the Seller can reasonably perform said Supplier’s service life policy.

12.4.1

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 (an “Interface Problem”), the Seller will, if 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 Buyer will furnish to the Seller all data and information in the Buyer’s possession relevant to the Interface Problem and will cooperate with the Seller in the conduct of the Seller’s investigations and such tests as may be required. At the conclusion of such investigation the Seller will promptly advise the Buyer in writing of the Seller’s opinion as to the cause or causes of the Interface Problem and the Seller’s recommendations as to corrective action.

Joint Responsibility

If the Seller determines that the Interface Problem is attributable partially to the design of a Warranted Part and partially to the design of any Supplier Part, the Seller will, if requested by the Buyer, seek a solution to the Interface Problem through cooperative efforts of the Seller and any Supplier involved. The Seller will promptly advise the Buyer of any corrective action proposed by the Seller and any such Supplier. Such proposal will be consistent with any then existing obligations of the Seller hereunder and of any such Supplier to the Buyer. Such corrective action, unless reasonably rejected by the Buyer, will constitute full satisfaction of any claim the Buyer may have against either the Seller or any such Supplier with respect to such 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 (an “Interface Problem”), the Seller will, if 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 Buyer will furnish to the Seller all data and information in the Buyer’s possession relevant to the Interface Problem and will cooperate with the Seller in the conduct of the Seller’s investigations and such tests as may be required. At the conclusion of such investigation the Seller will promptly advise the Buyer in writing of the Seller’s opinion as to the cause or causes of the Interface Problem and the Seller’s recommendations as to corrective action.
