ECI = A value using the "Employment Cost Index for workers in
aerospace manufacturing" (aircraft manufacturing,
standard industrial classification code 3721,
compensation, base month and year June 1989 = 100), as
released by the Bureau of Labor Statistics, U.S.
Department of Labor on a quarterly basis for the months
of March, June, September and December, calculated as
follows: A three-month arithmetic average value
(expressed as a decimal and rounded to the nearest
tenth) will be determined using the months set forth in
the table below for the applicable Aircraft, with the
released Employment Cost Index value described above for
the month of March also being used for the months of
January and February; the value for June also used for
April and May; the value for September also used for
July and August; and the value for December also used
for October and November.
ICI = The three-month arithmetic average of the released
monthly values for the Industrial Commodities Index as
set forth in the "Producer Prices and Price Index" (Base
Year 1982 = 100) as released by the Bureau of Labor
Statistics, U.S. Department of Labor values (expressed
as a decimal and rounded to the nearest tenth) for the
months set forth in the table below for the applicable
Aircraft.
In determining the value of L, the ratio of ECI divided by
[CONFIDENTIAL MATERIAL OMITTED AND FILED SEPARATELY WITH THE
SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION PURSUANT TO A REQUEST FOR

2. If at the time of delivery of an Aircraft Boeing is unable to
determine the Airframe Price Adjustment because the applicable
values to be used to determine the ECI and ICI have not been
released by the Bureau of Labor Statistics, then:
2.1 The Airframe Price Adjustment, to be used at the time of
delivery of each of the Aircraft, will be determined by utilizing
the escalation provisions set forth above. The values released by
the Bureau of Labor Statistics and available to Boeing 30 days
prior to scheduled month of Aircraft delivery 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. If no
values have been released for an applicable month, the provisions
set forth in Paragraph 2.2 below will apply. If prior to delivery
of an Aircraft the U.S. Department of Labor changes the base year
for determination of the ECI or ICI values as defined above, such
rebased values will be incorporated in the Airframe Price
Adjustment calculation. The payment by Buyer to Boeing of the
amount of the Purchase Price for such Aircraft, as determined at
the time of Aircraft delivery, will be deemed to be the payment for
such Aircraft required at the delivery thereof.
2.2 If prior to delivery of an Aircraft the U.S. Department
of Labor 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 Aircraft Airframe Price
Adjustment, the parties will, prior to delivery of any such
Aircraft, select a substitute for such values from data published
by the Bureau of Labor Statistics or other similar data reported by
non-governmental United States organizations, such substitute to
lead in application to the same adjustment result, insofar as
possible, as would have been achieved by continuing the use of the
original values as they may have fluctuated during the applicable
time period. Appropriate revision of the formula will be made as
required to reflect any substitute values. However, if within 24
months from 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
such Aircraft.
2.3 In the event escalation provisions are made
non-enforceable or otherwise rendered null and 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 and material costs occurring since
February, 1992, which is consistent with the applicable provisions
of paragraph 1 of this Exhibit D.
2.4 If required, Boeing will submit either a supplemental
invoice or refund the amounts due Buyer as appropriate to reflect
any increase or decrease in the Airframe Price Adjustment for the
Aircraft from that determined at the time of delivery of such
Aircraft. Any payments due Boeing or Buyer will be made with
reasonable promptness.
3. For the calculations herein, the values released by the Bureau
of Labor Statistics and available to Boeing 30 days prior to
scheduled month of Aircraft delivery 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.
Note: Any rounding of a number, as required under this
Exhibit D with respect to escalation of the airframe
price, will be accomplished as follows: if the first
digit of the portion to be dropped from the number to be
rounded is five or greater, the preceding digit will be
raised to the next higher number.

ECONOMIC FLUCTUATIONS
AIRFRAME PRICE ADJUSTMENT
(1997 Base Price)
(Relating to Block C Aircraft)
1. Formula.
The Airframe Price Adjustment will be determined at the time
of Aircraft delivery in accordance with the following formula:
Pa = (P)(L + M - 1)
Where:
Pa = Airframe Price Adjustment.
L = [CONFIDENTIAL MATERIAL OMITTED AND FILED SEPARATELY WITH
THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION PURSUANT TO A
M = REQUEST FOR CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT]
P = Aircraft Basic Price (as set forth in Article 3.2 of
this Agreement) less the base price of Engines (as
defined in this Exhibit D) in the amount of
$+ .
ECI = A value using the "Employment Cost Index for workers in
aerospace manufacturing" (aircraft manufacturing,
standard industrial classification code 3721,
compensation, base month and year June 1989 = 100), as
released by the Bureau of Labor Statistics, U.S.
Department of Labor on a quarterly basis for the months
of March, June, September and December, calculated as
follows: A three-month arithmetic average value
(expressed as a decimal and rounded to the nearest
tenth) will be determined using the months set forth in
the table below for the applicable Aircraft, with the
released Employment Cost Index value described above for
the month of March also being used for the months of
January and February; the value for June also used for
April and May; the value for September also used for
July and August; and the value for December also used
for October and November.
ICI = The three-month arithmetic average of the released
monthly values for the Industrial Commodities Index as
set forth in the "Producer Prices and Price Index" (Base
Year 1982 = 100) as released by the Bureau of Labor
Statistics, U.S. Department of Labor values (expressed
as a decimal and rounded to the nearest tenth) for the
months set forth in the table below for the applicable
Aircraft.
In determining the value of L, the ratio of ECI divided by
[CONFIDENTIAL MATERIAL OMITTED AND FILED SEPARATELY WITH THE
SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION PURSUANT TO A REQUEST FOR
CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT] will be expressed as a decimal rounded to
the nearest ten-thousandth and then multiplied by [CONFIDENTIAL
MATERIAL OMITTED AND FILED SEPARATELY WITH THE SECURITIES AND
EXCHANGE COMMISSION PURSUANT TO A REQUEST FOR CONFIDENTIAL
TREATMENT] with the resulting value also expressed as a decimal and
rounded to the nearest ten-thousandth.
In determining the value of M, the ratio of ICI divided by
[CONFIDENTIAL MATERIAL OMITTED AND FILED SEPARATELY WITH THE
SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION PURSUANT TO A REQUEST FOR
CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT] will be expressed as a decimal rounded to
the nearest ten-thousandth and then multiplied by [CONFIDENTIAL

TREATMENT] with the resulting value also expressed as a decimal and
rounded to the nearest ten-thousandth.

scheduled month of delivery as set forth in
Article 2.1 occurs.
D = The calendar year during which the scheduled
month of delivery as set forth in Article 2.1
occurs.
2. If at the time of delivery of an Aircraft Boeing is unable to
determine the Airframe Price Adjustment because the applicable
values to be used to determine the ECI and ICI have not been
released by the Bureau of Labor Statistics, then:
2.1 The Airframe Price Adjustment, to be used at the time of
delivery of each Aircraft, will be determined by utilizing the
escalation provisions set forth above. The values released by the
Bureau of Labor Statistics and available to Boeing 30 days prior to
scheduled Aircraft delivery 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. If no values have been released for an
applicable month, the provisions set forth in Paragraph 2.2 below
will apply. If prior to delivery of an Aircraft the U.S.
Department of Labor changes the base year for determination of the
ECI or ICI values as defined above, such rebased values will be
incorporated in the Airframe Price Adjustment calculation. The
payment by Buyer to Boeing of the amount of the Purchase Price for
such Aircraft, as determined at the time of Aircraft delivery, will
be deemed to be the payment for such Aircraft required at the
delivery thereof.
2.2 If prior to delivery of an Aircraft the U.S. Department
of Labor 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 Aircraft Airframe Price
Adjustment, the parties will, prior to delivery of any such
Aircraft, select a substitute for such values from data published
by the Bureau of Labor Statistics or other similar data reported by
non-governmental United States organizations, such substitute to
lead in application to the same adjustment result, insofar as
possible, as would have been achieved by continuing the use of the
original values as they may have fluctuated during the applicable
time period. Appropriate revision of the formula will be made as
required to reflect any substitute values. However, if within 24
months from 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
such Aircraft.
2.3 In the event escalation provisions are made
non-enforceable or otherwise rendered null and 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 and material costs occurring since
February, 1997, which is consistent with the applicable provisions
of paragraph 1 of this Exhibit D.
3. For the calculations herein, the values released by the Bureau
of Labor Statistics and available to Boeing 30 days prior to
scheduled Aircraft delivery 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.
Note: Any rounding of a number, as required under this
Exhibit D with respect to escalation of the airframe
price, will be accomplished as follows: if the first
digit of the portion to be dropped from the number to be
rounded is five or greater, the preceding digit will be
raised to the next higher number.

5. Contract Terms.
Within thirty (30) days after Buyer exercises an option to
purchase Option Aircraft pursuant to paragraph 4 above, Boeing and
Buyer will use their best reasonable efforts to enter into a
supplemental agreement amending the Purchase Agreement to add the
applicable Option Aircraft to the Purchase Agreement as a firm
Aircraft (the Option Aircraft Supplemental Agreement).
In the event the parties have not entered into such an Option
Aircraft Supplemental Agreement within the time period contemplated
herein, either party shall have the right, exercisable by written
or telegraphic notice given to the other within ten (10) days after
such period, to cancel the purchase of such Option Aircraft.
6. Cancellation of Option to Purchase.
Either Boeing or Buyer may cancel the option to purchase an
Option Aircraft if any of the following events are not accomplished
by the respective dates contemplated in this letter agreement, or
in the Purchase Agreement, as the case may be:
(i) purchase of an Aircraft under the Purchase Agreement for
any reason not attributable to the canceling party;
(ii) payment by Buyer of the Option Deposit with respect to
such Option Aircraft pursuant to paragraph 3 herein; or
(iii) exercise of the option to purchase such Option Aircraft
pursuant to the terms hereof.
Any cancellation of an option to purchase by Boeing which is based
on the termination of the purchase of an Aircraft under the
Purchase Agreement shall be on a one-for-one basis, for each
Aircraft so terminated.
Cancellation of an option to purchase provided by this letter
agreement shall be caused by either party giving written notice to
the other within ten (10) days after the respective date in
question. Upon receipt of such notice, all rights and obligations
of the parties with respect to an Option Aircraft for which the
option to purchase has been canceled shall thereupon terminate.
Boeing shall promptly refund to Buyer, without interest, any
payments received from Buyer with respect to the affected Option
Aircraft. Boeing shall be entitled to retain the Option Deposit
unless cancellation is attributable to Boeing's fault, in which
case the Option Deposit shall also be returned to Buyer without
interest.
7. Applicability.
Except as otherwise specifically provided, limited or excluded
herein, all Option Aircraft that are added to the Purchase Agreement
by an Option Aircraft Supplemental Agreement as firm Aircraft shall
benefit from all the applicable terms, conditions and provisions of

Attachment
Model 757-224 Aircraft
1. Option Aircraft Description and Changes.
1.1 Aircraft Description. The Option Aircraft are described
by Boeing Detail Specification D924N104-3, dated March 18, 1993, as
amended and revised pursuant to the Purchase Agreement.
1.2 Changes. The Option Aircraft Detail Specification shall
be revised to include:
(1) Changes applicable to the basic Model 757-200
aircraft which are developed by Boeing between the date of the
Detail Specification and the signing of an Option Aircraft
Supplemental Agreement.
(2) Changes mutually agreed upon.
(3) Changes required to obtain a Standard Certificate
of Airworthiness.
1.3 Effect of Changes. Changes to the Detail Specification
pursuant to the provisions of the clauses above shall include the
effects of such changes upon Option Aircraft weight, balance, design
and performance.
2. Price Description.
2.1 Price Adjustments.
2.1.1 Base Price Adjustments. The base airframe and
base engine price (pursuant to Article 3 of the Purchase Agreement)
of the Option Aircraft will be adjusted to Boeing's and the engine
manufacturer's then-current prices as of the date of execution of
the Option Aircraft Supplemental Agreement.
2.1.2 Special Features. The price for special features
incorporated in the Option Aircraft Detail Specification will be
adjusted to Boeing's then-current prices for such features as of the
date of execution of the Option Aircraft Supplemental Agreement only
to the extent that such increase is attributable to an increase in
Boeing's cost for purchased equipment.
2.1.3 Escalation Adjustments. The base airframe and
special features price will be escalated according to the applicable
airframe and engine manufacturer escalation provisions contained in
Exhibit D of the Purchase Agreement.
Buyer agrees that the engine escalation provisions will be adjusted
if they are changed by the engine manufacturer prior to the signing
the Option Aircraft Supplemental Agreement. In such case, the then-
current engine escalation provisions in effect at the time of
execution of the Option Aircraft Supplemental Agreement will be
incorporated into such agreement.
2.1.4 Price Adjustments for Changes. Boeing may adjust
the basic price and the advance payment base prices for any changes
mutually agreed upon by Buyer and Boeing subsequent to the date that
Buyer and Boeing enter into the Option Aircraft Supplemental
Agreement.
2.1.5 BFE to SPE. An estimate of the total price for
items of Buyer Furnished Equipment (BFE) changed to Seller Purchased
Equipment (SPE) pursuant to the Detail Specification is included in
the Option Aircraft price build-up. The purchase price of the
Option Aircraft will be adjusted by the price charged to Boeing for
such items plus 10% of such price.
2.1.6 Certification of Rolls-Royce Engines. It is
understood by the parties that the price offered hereunder of the
Rolls-Royce Engines may be adjusted by Rolls-Royce to reflect
changes required to be incorporated to satisfy any new or amended
United States Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) regulations.
Therefore, in the event that after May 31, 1990, the FAA or other
applicable U.S. Federal Agency issues new rules or regulations or
changes or amends then-existing rules or regulations, and such new,
changed or amended rules or regulations require changes to or
modification of the Engines (Engine Modifications), then: (i)
Boeing shall adjust the purchase price of the Option Aircraft in the
amount by which Rolls-Royce revises its price of the Engines to
Boeing as a result of such Engine Modifications; (ii) if the Engine
Modifications require any change, modification or alteration to the
Option Aircraft (Option Aircraft Modifications), the charge for
making the Option Aircraft Modifications shall be added to the
purchase price of the Option Aircraft; (iii) notwithstanding the
provisions of paragraph 1 of this Letter Agreement, the time of
delivery of the Option Aircraft shall be extended to the extent of
any delay attributable to the Engine or Option Aircraft
Modifications and said delay shall be deemed excusable; and (iv)
Boeing shall, if necessary, revise the Option Aircraft Detail
Specification as required to reflect the effects of the Engine
Modifications or Option Aircraft Modifications.
3. Advance Payments.
3.1 Buyer shall pay to Boeing advance payments for the Option
Aircraft pursuant to the schedule for payment of advance payments
provided in the Purchase Agreement.
