(b) Embraer Pre-Purchase Inspection.
1. If the Embraer Aircraft is not already at the Embraer Inspection Facility (as defined below) at the execution of this Agreement, then not later than two (2) business days after execution of this Agreement, Bus Av/Del shall cause the Embraer Aircraft to be ferried to Constant Aviation in Cleveland, OH (the “Embraer Inspection Facility”) by which an aircraft inspection shall commence at Insperity’s sole cost the scope of which is set forth in Exhibit D attached hereto and incorporated herein (“Insperity Embraer Inspection”) including a factory approved test flight of the Embraer Aircraft to verify proper operation of the Embraer Aircraft’s systems and operations and, if desired, an evaluation of the readiness of the Embraer Aircraft to be placed on the operations specifications of an FAR Part 135 operator of Insperity’s choice. In addition, Insperity shall be entitled to observe and have full access to, including any reports or documentation, to the previously scheduled inspection of the Embraer Aircraft detailed in Exhibit C attached hereto and incorporated herein and paid for in its entirety by Bus Av/Del (the “Previously Scheduled Inspection”). The Previously Scheduled Inspection and the Insperity Embraer Inspection shall be collectively referred to herein as “Embraer Pre-Purchase Inspection.” Insperity shall pay any actual out-of-pocket direct operating costs associated with the test flight, not to exceed $3,000 per hour. The Embraer Pre-Purchase Inspection shall be completed as expeditiously as reasonably practicable but in any event the Insperity Embraer Inspection shall be completed no later than ten (10) business days following completion of the Previously Scheduled Inspection (the “Embraer Inspection Period”). Bus Av/Del shall provide a copy of the Previously Scheduled Inspection report to Insperity.

If the evaluation of Part 135 readiness produces a discrepancy that renders the Embraer Aircraft not airworthy for Part 135 operations but still airworthy for Part 91 operations, then Bus Av/Del is not responsible to correct that discrepancy and Insperity’s sole recourse is to reject the Embraer Aircraft. It is understood and agreed that in no event shall Bus Av/Del be required to pay for the cost of any cosmetic items or for the cost of repairing or replacing any equipment or system that is “within limits” according to the applicable manufacturer’s maintenance manuals.
3. Subsequent to the completion of the Embraer Pre-Purchase Inspection including the test flight and correction of the Embraer Punch List Items, Bus Av/Del shall relocate the Embraer Aircraft to the Bus Av/Del facility in Aiken, South Carolina where any remaining Bus Av/Del personal property will be removed from the Embraer Aircraft and all of the manuals, records, spare parts, and other items required to be delivered with the Embraer Aircraft will be placed on board the Embraer Aircraft and will remain on board until Closing. As soon as practical, but no later than one (1) week from arrival in Aiken, Bus Av/Del will relocate the Embraer Aircraft to the Embraer Delivery Location (as defined in Section 1.07(a)). Bus Av/Del shall permit a representative of Insperity to accompany the Embraer Aircraft on the relocation flights.

Insperity shall arrange and pay for hangar space for the Embraer Aircraft at the Embraer Delivery Location until Closing. Insperity agrees that the Embraer Aircraft will not be operated for any reason, including ground operations prior to Closing unless Mr. Xxxx Xxxxxxx is present or has approved such operations in writing.

In addition, Insperity shall have the right to elect to provide or arrange for alternate private transportation for any such trips for Bus Av/Del on an aircraft reasonably acceptable to Bus Av/Del. Insperity shall be responsible for the cost of such alternate transportation; provided however, that Bus Av/Del agrees to reimburse Insperity or pay the services provider directly, a cost for each such trip not to exceed the direct operating costs for such trip if such trip had been flown on the Embraer Aircraft. Bus Av/Del agrees to use its best efforts to minimize trips on the Embraer Aircraft prior to Closing, but in no event shall such trips exceed 10 hours total duration. Bus Av/Del shall advise Insperity of any events which occur or maintenance items which arise during its use of the Embraer Aircraft which affect the condition of the Embraer Aircraft. Nothing herein shall negate or alter Bus Av/Del’s obligation to deliver the Embraer Aircraft in the condition required under this Agreement.

Not later than two (2) business days after execution of this Agreement, Insperity shall cause the G100 Aircraft to be ferried to Standard Aero in Houston, Texas or another mutually agreeable location within the continental United States (the “G100 Inspection Facility”) by which an aircraft pre-purchase inspection shall commence, the scope of which is set forth in Exhibit E attached hereto and incorporated herein (the “G100 Pre-Purchase Inspection”) including a factory approved test flight of the G100 Aircraft to verify proper operation of the G100 Aircraft’s systems and operations and, if desired, an evaluation of the readiness of the G100 Aircraft to be placed on the operations specifications of an FAR Part 135 operator of Bus Av/Del’s choice. The G100 Pre-Purchase Inspection shall be at Bus Av/Del’s sole cost except as noted on Exhibit E. Bus Av/Del shall pay any actual out-of-pocket direct operating costs associated with the test flight, not to exceed $2,000.00 per hour. The G100 Pre-Purchase Inspection shall be completed as expeditiously as reasonably practicable but in no event later than ten (10) business days after the commencement thereof (the “G100 Inspection Period”).

2. Insperity shall pay all costs (in each case as determined by the G100 Inspection Facility) for the repair of all discrepancies of the G100 Aircraft from the delivery conditions set forth in Section 1.07(e)(i)-(viii) (the “G100 Punch List Items”). If the evaluation of Part 135 readiness produces a discrepancy that renders the G100 Aircraft not airworthy for Part 135 operations but still airworthy for Part 91 operations, then Insperity is not responsible to correct that discrepancy and Bus Av/Del’s sole recourse is to reject the G100 Aircraft. It is understood and agreed that in no event shall Insperity be required to pay for the cost of any cosmetic items or for the cost of repairing or replacing any equipment or system that is “within limits” according to the applicable manufacturer’s maintenance manuals. In addition, Insperity shall pay all costs for the completion of the items set forth in Exhibit F attached hereto and incorporated herein in regard to the G100 Aircraft (such items shall be collectively referred to as the “G100 Improvements”).
