receives any refund on account of any suit or action for a Tax for which the

6.4 Delay and Change Order. If Delivery of any Aircraft is
delayed by the incorporation in such Aircraft of any Change required to be made
under Articles 6.2 or 6.3 such delay shall be an Excusable Delay within the
meaning of Article 10. Boeing shall issue and Customer shall accept a Change
Order reflecting any Change required to be made under Article 6.2 or 6.3, which
Change Order shall set forth in detail the particular Changes to be made therein
and the effect, if any, of such changes on design, performance, weight, balance,
time of Delivery and the Aircraft Basic Price of the affected Aircraft.
Notwithstanding the provisions of Article 7 of this AGTA, any Change Orders
issued pursuant to this Article 6.4 need not be signed by Customer and shall be
deemed to be accepted by Customer and effective upon the date of Boeing's
transmittal of such Change Order.
6.5 Discontinuance. If the use of either of the Certificates
identified in Article 6.1 is discontinued during the performance of this
Agreement, thereafter reference to such discontinued Certificate shall be deemed
a reference to any other certificate or instrument issued by the FAA which

certificate or instrument, then Boeing shall be deemed to have obtained such
discontinued Certificate or Certificates upon demonstrating that each Aircraft
complies substantially with the performance guarantees set forth in the Detail
Specification.
20
AGTA-DAL
23
Article 7. Detail Specification; Changes.
7.1 Change Order. The Detail Specification for an applicable
Aircraft model may, by mutual agreement, be amended from time to time by Change
Order or other written agreement, which shall set forth in detail the particular
changes to be made therein, and the effect, if any, of such changes on design,
performance, weight, balance, time of Delivery and basic price of the Aircraft.
Such Change Orders and other written agreements shall be signed on behalf of
Customer and Boeing by their respective duly authorized representatives.
7.2 Detail Specification Changes. All changes which revise
the Detail Specification shall be made in accordance with the procedures
hereinafter set forth.
7.2.1 Master Change/Other Changes. The Detail
Specification may be revised by mutual agreement of the parties by Master Change
(MC), Production Record Revisions (PRR), Rapid Revisions (RR), or other change
processes (which are acceptable to the FAA) which may be requested by Customer
or initiated by Boeing, as appropriate. Each change shall be proposed to
Customer by Boeing and shall describe the change to be accomplished, establish
the Aircraft effectivity, and the effect, if any, on weight, and the Aircraft
Basic Price . When signed by duly authorized representatives of both parties,
such changes shall be binding on both parties and may be released immediately by
Boeing to production. After acceptance of the change by Customer, Boeing will
provide Specification Revision Inserts (SRI) as addendum sheets to maintain the
currency of the Detail Specification. Periodically, such agreed changes shall be
accumulated in formal Change Orders. A complete revision to the Detail
Specification will be issued concurrently with the Change Order. The revision
will incorporate the SRIs. As the Detail Specification revisions are predicated
on incorporating accepted changes, formal release of the revised Detail
Specification shall be independent of formal acceptance of the Change Order.
7.2.2 Development Change. Development Changes are those deemed necessary to
correct defects, improve the Aircraft, prevent delay, or insure compliance with
this Agreement but which have no materially adverse effect on the design,
replaceability, interchangeability, weight, balance or functional
characteristics of the Aircraft. The Detail Specification may be revised by
Boeing without Customer's consent to incorporate Development Changes (DC's)
where such changes do not adversely affect price, Delivery, guaranteed weight or
guaranteed performance of the Aircraft or interchangeability, or replaceability
or functional characteristics of Spare Parts; *This confidential information has

personnel of Customer.
8.2 Inspection. Boeing's manufacture of the Aircraft, and all
components obtained by Boeing therefor, shall at all reasonable times be open to
inspection by any duly authorized representatives of Customer. However, if
access to any part of Boeing's plant where manufacture is in progress or
components are stored is restricted by the United States Government, Boeing
shall be allowed a reasonable time to make the items available for inspection
elsewhere than in the restricted area. All inspections by Customer's
representatives shall be performed in such manner as not to unduly delay or
hinder manufacture or performance by Boeing.
8.3 Demonstration Flights. Each Aircraft shall be test flown
by Boeing for such periods as may be required to demonstrate to Customer the
functioning of the Aircraft and its equipment. Customer shall be permitted to
have a reasonable number of representatives participate in such flights as
observers.
8.4 Test Data; Performance Guarantee Compliance. Boeing shall
furnish to Customer, as soon as practicable, flight test data, obtained on an
aircraft of the type purchased hereunder, certified as correct by Boeing, to
evidence compliance with any performance guarantees set forth in the applicable
Purchase Agreement. Any performance guarantee shall be deemed to be met if
reasonable engineering interpretations and calculations based on such flight
test data establish that the Aircraft would, if actually flown, comply with such
guarantee.
8.5 Special Aircraft Test Requirements. Subject to Customer's
prior consent, Boeing may use the Aircraft for flight and ground tests prior to
Delivery if such tests are deemed necessary by Boeing.
(a) to obtain the certificates required under Article
6.1, and

hereunder are not available for such tests, or
22
AGTA-DAL
25
(ii) special features incorporated in the Aircraft (but
not incorporated in other aircraft of the type purchased
hereunder) necessitate such tests, or
(iii) the Engines (as defined in Exhibit D to this AGTA)
to be installed on the Aircraft are of different
manufacture or type from those installed on other aircraft
of the type purchased hereunder; or
(b) to evaluate actual or contemplated changes for the
improvement of aircraft of the type purchased hereunder which may be requested
for incorporation by Customer, in production or by retrofit, in any Aircraft.
Customer shall accept Delivery of any Aircraft used for such flight and ground
tests without any reduction in price for depreciation or wear and tear resulting
therefrom.
Article 9. Delivery.

10.6 Aircraft Damaged Beyond Repair. If an Aircraft is
destroyed or damaged beyond repair for any reason before Delivery, Boeing will
give written notice to Customer specifying the earliest month possible,
consistent with Boeing's other contractual commitments and production
capabilities in which Boeing can deliver a replacement. Customer will have
thirty (30) days from receipt of such notice to elect to have Boeing manufacture
a replacement aircraft under the same terms and conditions of purchase, except
that the calculation of the Escalation Adjustment will be based upon the
Scheduled Delivery Month in effect immediately prior to the date of such notice,
or, failing such election, the applicable Purchase Agreement will terminate with
respect to such Aircraft. Boeing will not be obligated to manufacture a
replacement aircraft if reactivation of the production line for the specific
model of aircraft would be required.

ESCALATION ADJUSTMENT
1. Formula.
Airframe and Optional Features price adjustments (Airframe Price
Adjustment); are used to allow prices to be stated in current year dollars at
the signing of the applicable purchase agreement and to adjust the amount to be
paid by Customer at delivery for the effects of economic fluctuation. The
Airframe Price Adjustment will be determined at the time of aircraft delivery in
accordance with the following formula:
P(a) = (P)(L + M - 1)
Where:
P(a) = Airframe Price Adjustment. (For Model 737-600,
737-700 and 737-800, the Airframe Price includes
the Engine Price.)
L = .65 x ECI
---
base year index (as set forth in Table 1 of
the applicable purchase agreement)
M = .35 x ICI
---
base year index (as set forth in Table 1 of
the applicable purchase agreement)
P = Airframe Price plus Optional Features Price (as
set forth in the applicable purchase agreement).
ECI is a value determined using the U.S. Department of
Labor, Bureau of Labor Statistics "Employment Cost Index
for workers in aerospace manufacturing" (ECI code 3721),
calculated by establishing a three-month arithmetic
average value (expressed as a decimal and rounded to the
nearest tenth) using the values for the fifth, sixth and
seventh months prior to the month of scheduled delivery of
the applicable aircraft. As the Employment Cost Index
values are only released on a quarterly basis, the value
released for the month of March will be used for the
months of January and February; the value for June used
for April and May; the value for September used for July
and August; and the value for December used for October
and November.
ICI is a value determined using the U.S. Department of
Labor, Bureau of Labor Statistics "Producer Prices and
Price Index - Industrial Commodities Index", calculated as
a 3-month arithmetic average of the released monthly
values (expressed as a decimal and rounded to the
D-1
AGTA-DAL
79
nearest tenth) using the values for the 5th, 6th and 7th
months prior to the month of scheduled delivery of the
applicable aircraft.
As an example, for an aircraft scheduled to be delivered
in the month of January, the months June, July and August
of the preceding year will be utilized in determining the
value of ECI and ICI.
Note: i. In determining the values of L and M, all calculations
and resulting values will be expressed as a decimal rounded to the
nearest ten-thousandth.
ii. .65 is the numeric ratio attributed to labor in the
Airframe Price Adjustment formula.
iii. .35 is the numeric ratio attributed to materials in the
Airframe Price Adjustment formula.
iv. The denominators (base year indices) are the actual average
values reported by the U.S. Department of Labor, Bureau of Labor
Statistics (base year June 1989 = 100). The applicable base year
and corresponding denominator will be provided by Boeing in the
applicable purchase agreement.
2. Values to be Utilized in the Event of Unavailability.
2.1 If the Bureau of Labor Statistics substantially revises the
methodology used for the determination of the values to be used to determine the
ECI and ICI values (in contrast to benchmark adjustments or other corrections of
previously released values), or for any reason has not released values needed to
determine the applicable Airframe Price Adjustment, the parties will, prior to
the delivery of any such aircraft, select a substitute from other Bureau of
Labor Statistics data or similar data reported by non-governmental
organizations. Such substitute will result in the same adjustment, insofar as
possible, as would have been calculated utilizing the original values adjusted
for fluctuation during the applicable time period. However, if within 24 months
after delivery of the aircraft, the Bureau of Labor Statistics should resume
releasing values for the months needed to determine the Airframe Price
Adjustment, such values will be used to determine any increase or decrease in
the Airframe Price Adjustment for the aircraft from that determined at the time
of delivery of the aircraft.
2.2 Notwithstanding Article 2.1 above, if prior to the scheduled
delivery month of an aircraft the Bureau of Labor Statistics changes the base
year for determination of the ECI and ICI values as defined above, such re-based
values will be incorporated in the Airframe Price Adjustment calculation.
2.3 In the event escalation provisions are made non-enforceable or
otherwise rendered void by any agency of the United States Government, the
parties agree, to the extent they may lawfully do so, to equitably adjust the
Purchase Price of any affected aircraft to reflect an allowance for increases or
decreases in labor compensation
D-2
AGTA-DAL
80
and material costs occurring since February, 1995, which is consistent with the
applicable provisions of paragraph 1 of this Exhibit D.
Note: i. The values released by the Bureau of Labor Statistics and
available to Boeing 30 days prior to the scheduled delivery month
of an aircraft will be used to determine the ECI and ICI values for
the applicable months (including those noted as preliminary by the
Bureau of Labor Statistics) to calculate the Airframe Price
Adjustment for the aircraft invoice at the time of delivery. The
values will be considered final and no Aircraft Price Adjustments
will be made after Aircraft delivery for any subsequent changes in
published Index values.
ii. The maximum number of digits utilized in any part of the
Airframe Price Adjustment equation will be 4, where rounding of the
fourth digit will be increased to the next highest digit when the
5th digit is equal to 5 or greater.

Aircraft. Any disclosure pursuant to (a) and (c) above will be subject to
execution of a confidentiality agreement substantially similar to this paragraph

agreed that Washington law (excluding Washington's conflict-of-law principles)
