5.4 | VOIP and Other Prohibited Applications. Within five business days following any date on which Aircell becomes aware that Users are using Voice over Internet Protocol, Internet telephony or similar services (“VOIP”) through the Connectivity Services on Retrofit A/C, provided it is feasible to do so on a commercially reasonable basis and does not materially deteriorate the User experience or Service Levels, Aircell will at its expense either revise the System to block the method for such VOIP use of which Aircell is aware, or develop and present to Delta a plan and timetable for blocking such VOIP use as expeditiously as is possible. In the event that Delta requests that Aircell block other applications or websites, to the extent it is technically feasible and does not materially deteriorate the User experience or Service Levels, Aircell will, within a reasonable period following such request, develop and present to Delta a plan and timetable for blocking such applications and/or websites as well as an estimate of associated costs. Delta will reimburse Aircell for the reasonable expense of developing such a plan. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, (i) Aircell shall not be required to block any application (including VOIP) or website if Aircell reasonably believes that such blocking could cause Aircell to violate the Communications Act of 1934, any rule or regulation promulgated by the FCC or any other law, rule or regulation applicable to Aircell or its business; and (ii) Delta shall be solely responsible for determining what applications (other than VOIP) and/or websites are to be blocked. |

Following such notice, Delta and Aircell will mutually determine a plan to remediate the identified issues, which plan may include, without limitation, [***], improved online User support and review of passenger instructions and collateral materials. The costs of the remediation program will be borne by Aircell. |
7. | JOINT MARKETING |
7.1 | Initiatives. The parties will cooperate in developing and implementing joint and separate initiatives to market, promote and advertise the Connectivity Services. A recent presentation by Aircell regarding proposed initiatives is attached hereto as Exhibit H. A marketing team consisting of representatives of both parties will work together in good faith to agree upon an initial marketing plan based upon Exhibit H within 30 days following the execution of this Agreement and will meet at least quarterly thereafter to review proposed initiatives and update the plan by mutual agreement. Each such plan (the “Marketing Plan”) will set forth the initiatives to be undertaken in the subsequent three months (or such other period on which the joint marketing team agrees), as well as the schedule and amounts budgeted for implementation of such initiatives. [***]. Neither the approval of the initial Marketing Plan nor any revision or update thereto will require an |
Page 11
amendment to this Agreement. Neither party will undertake any material promotion without obtaining the written approval of the other party (the term “promotion” for this purpose including, without limitation, offering Connectivity Services for free or at discounted test or promotional rates). |
7.2 | Press Release. In connection with this Agreement, Aircell and Delta will agree upon and issue one or more press releases regarding their planned introduction of Connectivity Services on A/C. |

8.4 | Program Reports. The parties will provide Program reports (“Reports”) to one another on a regular basis to keep one another informed of the status of the Program and the Services in a timely manner. The parties will mutually agree upon the information to be included in, and format of, the Reports. Until the later of March 31, 2009, or such time as the ABS Equipment is installed and operating on Mainline A/C constituting at least 25% of the first installed Equipment Type, Aircell will provide Delta with such data and other information pertaining to Aircell’s performance on other airlines and other metrics as are sufficient to allow Delta to determine whether the ABS Equipment when installed will comply with the Service Levels; provided, however, that Aircell will have no obligation to provide any information to Delta where doing so would cause Aircell to violate a third party confidentiality agreement. Delta and Aircell will mutually determine the specific format of the information to be provided. If at any time prior to or during the installation of the ABS Equipment for an Equipment Type, Delta reasonably determines from Aircell’s and its own data that the ABS Equipment for such Equipment Type will not substantially comply with the Service Levels if installed on the schedule agreed upon by the parties, Delta will at Aircell’s request agree to extend the schedule by written consent to provide Aircell with time to improve performance to comply with the Service Levels, and Aircell will at Delta’s request suspend |
Page 12
installation of the ABS Equipment on such Equipment Type. In such event, Aircell will use its best efforts to determine the cause or causes of such underperformance, present to Delta a remediation plan, and improve performance so that the ABS Equipment will comply with the Service Levels, but in no event will Aircell take more than 30 days to present its plan or more than an additional 90 days to demonstrate to Delta’s reasonable satisfaction that the ABS Equipment when installed will substantially comply with the Service Levels.
