Spirit Airlines - A320 FAMILY – PA | 31 |
(iv) | arising from failure to conform to the Specification, except as to those portions of the Specification that are expressly stated in the Specification to be estimates or approximations or design aims. |

12.1.2 | Exceptions |
The warranties set forth in Clause 12.1.1 will not apply to Buyer Furnished Equipment, Propulsion Systems, or to any component, accessory, equipment or part purchased by the Buyer 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, 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 |
(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 will 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). |

The parties agree that the remedy of liquidated damages is not to be denied to the Seller due to the inability of Seller to deliver a notice and demand for payment thereof due to the operation of law following a bankruptcy or other Termination Event under Sub-clause 21.1(1) – (4). The parties further agree that in circumstances where a Termination Event has occurred and the Seller does not cancel this Agreement as to any or all Aircraft, but instead seeks to recover its actual damages resulting therefrom, the amount of actual damages payable by the Buyer shall not exceed the amount of liquidated damages that could have been claimed by Seller pursuant to Clause 21.2 (2) had the Seller elected to claim, as a result of such Termination Event, liquidated damages pursuant to Clause 21.2(2). |
21.1.4 | The parties to this Agreement are commercially sophisticated parties represented by competent counsel. The parties expressly agree and declare that damages for material breach of this Agreement by the Buyer resulting in a Termination of this Agreement as to any or all Aircraft have been liquidated at amounts which are reasonable in light of the anticipated or actual harm caused by the Buyer’s breach, the difficulties of proof of loss and the nonfeasibility of otherwise obtaining an adequate remedy. It is understood and agreed by the parties that the amount of liquidated damages set forth herein is the total amount of monetary damages, no more and no less, to which the Seller will be entitled for and with respect to any Aircraft as recovery for material breach of this Agreement by Buyer resulting in a Termination by the Seller of this Agreement as to such Aircraft. |
21.1.5 | The terms “Affected Aircraft”, “Applicable Date and “Escalated Price” are defined as follows: |
(i) | “Affected Aircraft” – (a) any or all Aircraft with respect to which the Seller has cancelled or terminated this Agreement pursuant to Sub-clause 21.1.2(1)(iv). |
(ii) | “Applicable Date” – for any Affected Aircraft the date of the Termination Event which the Seller specifies in its notice and demand for payment of liquidated damages delivered under Sub-Clause 21.1(3). |
(iii) | “Escalated Price” –·the sum of (i) the Base Price of the Airframe (set forth in Clause 3.1.1 hereof), (ii) the Base Price of SCNs and MSCNs entered into after the date of this Agreement, and (iii) the reference Price of the Propulsion systems, all as escalated to the Applicable Date in accordance with the provisions of Clause 4 of this Agreement. |
21.1.6 | Promptly upon obtaining knowledge of the occurrence of a Termination Event by the Buyer, the Buyer will notify the Seller of such occurrence in writing, provided, that |
Spirit Airlines - A320 FAMILY – PA | 88 |
any failure by the Buyer to notify the Seller will not prejudice the Seller’s rights or remedies hereunder. |
21.2 | If at any time prior to Scheduled Delivery Date of an Aircraft, the Seller has reasonable grounds for insecurity as to the ability of the Buyer to perform its obligation to take Delivery of such Aircraft, then the Seller will send the Buyer a written demand for adequate assurance of performance. If adequate assurance acceptable to the Seller is not received within thirty days following the date of such written demand, then the Seller will have the right to either (a) exercise the remedies provided under Section 2-609 of the Uniform Commercial Code or (b) exercise any of its remedies under Clause 21.2 of this Agreement. |

5.1 | Roundings |
The Labor Index average and the Material Index average will be computed to the first decimal. If the next succeeding place is five (5) or more, the preceding decimal place will be raised to the next higher figure.
Each quotient will be rounded to the nearest ten-thousandth (4 decimals). If the next succeeding place is five (5) or more, the preceding decimal place will be raised to the next higher figure.
The final factor will be rounded to the nearest ten-thousandth (4 decimals).
The final price will be rounded to the nearest whole number (0.5 or more rounded to 1).

In the event that the Leased Part has not been returned to the Lessor’s designated facilities within the time period provided in Paragraph 12.3 above, the Lessor will be entitled, in addition to any other remedy it may have at law or under this Paragraph 12, to charge to the Lessee, and the Lessee will pay, the charges referred to in this Paragraph 12.4 accruing for each day after the end of the Lease Term and for as long as such Leased Part is not returned to the Lessor and as though the Lease Term were extended to the period of such delay.
12.5 | Title |
Title to each Leased Part will remain with the Lessor at all times unless the Lessee exercises its option to purchase it in accordance with Paragraph 12.8 of this Letter Agreement 1, in which case title will pass to the Lessee in accordance with Paragraph 7 of this Letter Agreement 1.
12.6 | Risk of Loss |
Except for normal wear and tear, each Leased Part will be returned to the Lessor in the same condition as when delivered to the Lessee.

Risk of loss or damage to each Leased Part will remain with the Lessee until such Leased Part is redelivered to the Lessor at the return location specified in the applicable Lease. If a Leased Part is lost or damaged beyond repair, the Lessee will be deemed to have exercised its option to purchase the part in accordance with Paragraph 12.8 of this Letter Agreement 1, as of the date of such loss or damage.
12.7 | Record of Flight Hours |
All flight hours accumulated by the Lessee on each Leased Part during the Lease Term will be documented by the Lessee.

Spirit Airlines – A320 Family Aircraft | LA1-23 |
Such documentation will include but not be limited to evidence of incidents such as hard landings, abnormalities of operation and corrective action taken by the Lessee as a result of such incidents.
12.8 | Option to Purchase |
12.8.1 | Option to Purchase |
The Lessee may at its option, exercisable by written notice given to the Lessor, elect during or at the end of the Lease Term to purchase the Leased Part, in which case the then current purchase price for such Leased Part as set forth in the Seller’s Spare Parts Price List will be paid by the Lessee to the Lessor. The immediately preceding sentence will apply to new Leased Parts only. In the event the Leased Part is used, ***** of the then current catalog price for the new part with a part number corresponding to such Leased Part will be paid by the Lessee to the Lessor. Such option will be contingent upon the Lessee providing the Lessor with evidence satisfactory to the Lessor that the original part fitted to the Aircraft is beyond economical repair. Should the Lessee exercise such option, ***** of the Lease rental charges already invoiced pursuant to Paragraph 12.4(a) will be credited to the Lessee against the said purchase price of the Leased Part.
In the event that the removed part is beyond economic repair and the Leased Part is a used part, the Buyer may elect to order a new part from the Seller and continue to lease the Leased Part under the conditions of Paragraph 12.4 until such time as the new part is delivered. The purchase price of the new part will be discounted by ***** of the lease charges paid in respect of the Leased Part. Should the Lessee fail to return the Leased Part to the Lessor at the end of the Lease Term, such failure will be deemed to be an election by the Lessee to purchase the Leased Part.
12.8.2 | In the event of purchase, the Leased Part will be warranted in accordance with Paragraph 11 of this Letter Agreement 1 as though such Leased Part were a Seller Part; provided, however, that (i) the Seller will prorate the full Warranty Period granted to the Buyer according to the actual usage of such Leased Part and (ii) in no event will such Warranty period be less than ***** from the date of purchase of such Leased Part. A warranty granted under this Paragraph 12.8.2 will be in substitution for the warranty granted under Paragraph 12.9 at the commencement of the Lease Term. |
