12.1.2 Exclusions
The warranties set forth in Clause 12.1.1 will not apply to Buyer Furnished Equipment, nor to the Propulsion Systems, nor to any component, equipment, accessory or part installed on the Aircraft at Delivery that is not a Warranted Part except that:
(i) any defect in the Seller’s workmanship in respect of the installation of such items in the Aircraft, including any failure by the Seller to conform to the installation instructions of the manufacturers of such items, that invalidates any applicable warranty from such manufacturers, will constitute a defect in workmanship for the purpose of this Clause 12.1 and be covered by the warranty set forth in Clause 12.1.1 (ii); and

12.4 Interface Commitment
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 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 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.
12.4.2 Seller’s Responsibility
If the Seller determines that the Interface Problem is primarily attributable to the design of a Warranted Part, the Seller will, if so requested by the Buyer and pursuant to the terms and conditions of Clause 12.1, correct the design of such Warranted Part to the extent of the Seller’s obligation as defined in Clause 12.1.

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 so requested by the Buyer, seek a solution to the Interface Problem through cooperative efforts of the Seller and any Supplier involved.
20130318_CT1242023_PA_A321neo_HAL |
|
*** Confidential Treatment Requested |

The Seller will promptly advise the Buyer of such corrective action as may be 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.

12.1.2 Exclusions
The warranties set forth in Clause 12.1.1 do not apply to Buyer Furnished Equipment, Propulsion Systems, or to any component, accessory, equipment or part installed on the Aircraft at Delivery that is not a Warranted Part, provided, however, that:
(i) any defect in the Seller’s workmanship in respect of the installation of such items in the Aircraft, including any failure by the Seller to conform to the installation instructions of the manufacturers of such items that invalidates any applicable warranty from such manufacturers, constitutes a defect in workmanship for the purpose of this Clause 12.1 and be covered by the warranty set forth in Clause 12.1.1(ii), and
(ii) any defect inherent in the Seller’s design of the installation, considering the state of the art at the date of such design, that impairs the use of such items shall constitute a defect in design for the purposes of this Clause 12.1 and be covered by the warranty set forth in Clause 12.1.1(iii).
In addition, the warranties set forth in Clause 12.1.1 shall not apply to any defect arising from any act or omission of the Buyer, including but not limited to, any failure to operate and maintain the affected Aircraft or part thereof in accordance with the standards set forth in Clause 12.1.11 or from any act or omission of any third party (such third party not to include the Seller, its Affiliates and subcontractors).
