The Buyer will be entitled to repair such Warranted Parts:
- | [CONFIDENTIAL PORTION OMITTED AND FILED SEPARATELY WITH THE COMMISSION PURSUANT TO A REQUEST FOR CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT] The Buyer's notification will include sufficient detail regarding the defect, estimated labor hours and material to allow the Seller to ascertain the reasonableness of the estimate.

- | only to the extent specified by the Seller, or, in the absence of such specification, to the extent reasonably necessary to correct the defect, in accordance with the standards set forth in Clause 12.1.10. |
12.1.7.3 | Seller's Rights |
The Seller will have the right to require the return of any Warranted Part, or any part removed therefrom, which is claimed to be defective if, in the judgment of the Seller, the nature of the claimed defect requires technical investigation.

- | total price of parts, |
(c) | detailed number of labor hours, |
(d) | In-house Warranty Labor Rate, |
(e) | total claim value. |
12.1.7.5 | Credit |
The Buyer's sole remedy and the Seller's sole obligation and liability with respect to In-house Warranty Claims will be the warranty credit issued to the Buyer in an amount equal to the reasonable direct labor costs expended in performing the repair of a Warranted Part and to the direct costs of materials incorporated in such repair, determined as set forth below:
(i) | to determine direct labor costs, only man-hours spent on [CONFIDENTIAL PORTION OMITTED AND FILED SEPARATELY WITH THE COMMISSION PURSUANT TO A REQUEST FOR CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT] disassembly, inspection, repair, reassembly, final inspection and test of the Warranted Part [CONFIDENTIAL PORTION OMITTED AND FILED SEPARATELY WITH THE COMMISSION PURSUANT TO A REQUEST FOR CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT] will be counted. Any man-hours required for maintenance work concurrently being carried out on the affected Aircraft or the Warranted Part will not be included. |
(ii) | The man-hours counted as set forth above will be multiplied by an agreed labor rate of [CONFIDENTIAL PORTION OMITTED AND FILED SEPARATELY WITH THE COMMISSION PURSUANT TO A REQUEST FOR CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT] ("In-house Warranty Labor Rate"), which is deemed to represent the Buyer's composite labor rate meaning the average hourly rate (excluding all fringe benefits, premium time allowances, social security charges, business taxes and the like) paid to the Buyer's employees whose jobs are directly related to the performance of the repair. |
The In-house Warranty Labor Rate is subject to annual adjustment by multiplication by the ratio ECIn/ECIb. For the purposes of this Clause 12.1.7.5 only, ECIn will be equal to the Labor Index, ECI336411W, defined in the Seller's Price Revision Formula 2011 set forth in Exhibit C-1 to the Agreement.
(iii) | Direct material costs are determined by the prices at which the Buyer acquired such material, excluding any parts and materials used for overhaul and as may be furnished by the Seller at no charge. |
12.1.7.6 | Limitation |
The Buyer will in no event be credited for repair costs (including labor and material) for any Warranted Part in excess of [CONFIDENTIAL PORTION OMITTED AND FILED SEPARATELY WITH THE COMMISSION PURSUANT TO A REQUEST FOR CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT] of the Seller's current catalogue price for a replacement of such defective Warranted Part.
12.1.7.7 | Scrapped Material |
The Buyer will retain any defective Warranted Part beyond economic repair and any defective part removed from a Warranted Part during repair for a period of either [CONFIDENTIAL PORTION OMITTED AND FILED SEPARATELY WITH THE COMMISSION PURSUANT TO A REQUEST FOR CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT] after the date of completion of the repair or [CONFIDENTIAL PORTION OMITTED AND FILED SEPARATELY WITH THE COMMISSION PURSUANT TO A REQUEST FOR CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT] after submission of a claim for In-house Warranty credit relating thereto, whichever is longer, and during such period such parts will be returned to the Seller within [CONFIDENTIAL PORTION OMITTED AND FILED SEPARATELY WITH THE COMMISSION PURSUANT TO A REQUEST FOR CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT] of receipt of the Seller's request to that effect.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Buyer may scrap any such defective parts, which are beyond economic repair and not required for technical evaluation locally, with the agreement of the Seller Representative(s) at any time.

If a defect is attributable to a defective repair or replacement by the Buyer, a Warranty Claim with respect to such defect will be rejected, notwithstanding any subsequent correction or repair, and will immediately terminate the remaining warranties under this Clause 12.1 in respect of the affected Warranted Part.
12.1.10 | Accepted Industry Standard Practices Normal Wear and Tear |
The Buyer's rights under this Clause 12.1 with respect to any Warranted Part are subject to such Warranted Part being maintained, overhauled, repaired and operated in accordance with accepted industry standard practices, all Technical Data and any other instructions issued by the Seller, the Suppliers and the Propulsion System Manufacturer with respect to such Warranted Part and all applicable rules, regulations and directives of the relevant Aviation Authorities with respect to such Warranted Part.

(v) | the Buyer will report any breakage or defect in an Item in writing to the Seller within [CONFIDENTIAL PORTION OMITTED AND FILED SEPARATELY WITH THE COMMISSION PURSUANT TO A REQUEST FOR CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT] after such breakage or defect becomes apparent, whether or not such breakage or defect can reasonably be expected to occur in any other aircraft, and the Buyer will have provided to the Seller reasonably sufficient detail on the breakage or defect to enable the Seller to determine whether such breakage or defect is subject to the Seller Service Life Policy. |
12.2.4.3 | Except as otherwise provided for in this Clause 12.2, any claim under the Seller Service Life Policy will be administered as provided for in, and will be subject to the terms and conditions of, Clause 12.1.6. |

12.2.4.5 |
THE SELLER SERVICE LIFE POLICY IS NEITHER A WARRANTY, PERFORMANCE GUARANTEE, NOR AN AGREEMENT TO MODIFY ANY AIRCRAFT OR AIRFRAME COMPONENTS TO CONFORM TO NEW DEVELOPMENTS OCCURRING IN THE STATE OF AIRFRAME DESIGN AND MANUFACTURING ART. THE SELLER'S OBLIGATION UNDER THIS CLAUSE 12.2 IS TO MAKE ONLY THOSE CORRECTIONS TO THE ITEMS OR FURNISH REPLACEMENTS THEREFOR AS PROVIDED FOR IN THIS CLAUSE 12.2. THE BUYER'S SOLE REMEDY AND RELIEF FOR THE NON-PERFORMANCE OF ANY OBLIGATION OR LIABILITY OF THE SELLER ARISING UNDER OR BY VIRTUE OF THE SELLER SERVICE LIFE POLICY WILL BE [CONFIDENTIAL PORTION OMITTED AND FILED SEPARATELY WITH THE COMMISSION PURSUANT TO A REQUEST FOR CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT] LIMITED TO THE AMOUNT THE BUYER REASONABLY EXPENDS IN PROCURING A CORRECTION OR REPLACEMENT FOR ANY ITEM THAT IS THE SUBJECT OF A FAILURE COVERED BY THE SELLER SERVICE LIFE POLICY AND TO WHICH SUCH |

The Seller authorizes the Buyer to enforce directly against all Suppliers all such warranties and service life policies to the fullest extent permitted by the applicable Supplier Product Support Agreement.
[CONFIDENTIAL PORTION OMITTED AND FILED SEPARATELY WITH THE COMMISSION PURSUANT TO A REQUEST FOR CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT]
12.3.1 | Definitions |
12.3.1.1 | "Supplier" means any supplier of Supplier Parts. |
12.3.1.2 | "Supplier Part" means any component, equipment, accessory or part installed in an Aircraft at the time of Delivery thereof and for which there exists a Supplier Product Support Agreement. For the sake of clarity, the Propulsion System and Buyer Furnished Equipment and other equipment selected by the Buyer to be supplied by suppliers with whom the Seller has no existing enforceable warranty agreements are not Supplier Parts. |
12.3.1.3 | "Supplier Product Support Agreements" means agreements between the Seller and Suppliers, as described in Clause 17.1.2, containing enforceable and transferable warranties and, in the case of landing gear suppliers, service life policies for selected structural landing gear elements. |
12.3.2 | Supplier's Default |
12.3.2.1 | In the event that any Supplier, under any standard warranty obtained by the Seller in a Supplier Product Support Agreement, defaults in the performance of any obligation with respect thereto and subject to (i) the Buyer using its commercially reasonable efforts to enforce its rights under such Supplier Product Support Agreement and (ii) the Buyer submitting in reasonable time to the Seller reasonable evidence that such default has occurred, then Clause 12.1 will apply to the extent the same would have been applicable had such Supplier Part been a Warranted Part, except that the Supplier's warranty period as indicated in the Supplier Product Support Agreement will apply. |
12.3.2.2 | In the event that any Supplier, under any Supplier service life policy obtained by the Seller in a Supplier Product Support Agreement, defaults in the performance of any obligation with respect thereto and subject to (i) the Buyer using its commercially reasonable efforts to enforce its rights under such Supplier Product Support Agreement and (ii) the Buyer submitting in reasonable time to the Seller reasonable evidence that such default has occurred, then Clause 12.2 will apply as if such Supplier Part was an Item, except that the Supplier's service life policy period as indicated in the Supplier Product Support Agreement will apply. |
12.3.2.3 | At the Seller's request, the Buyer will assign to the Seller, and the Seller will be subrogated to, all of the Buyer's rights against the relevant Supplier with respect to and arising by reason of such default and will provide reasonable assistance to enable the Seller to enforce the rights so assigned. |
12.4 | Interface Commitment |
12.4.1 | Interface Problem |
If the Warranty Beneficiary experiences any technical problem in the operation of an Aircraft or its systems due to a malfunction, the cause of which, after due and reasonable investigation, is not readily identifiable by the Warranty Beneficiary but which the Warranty Beneficiary reasonably believes to be attributable to the design characteristics of one or more components of such Aircraft ("Interface Problem"), the Seller will, if so requested by the Warranty Beneficiary, and without additional charge to the Warranty Beneficiary, promptly conduct or have conducted an investigation and analysis of such problem to determine, if possible, the cause or causes of the problem and to recommend such corrective action as may be feasible. The Warranty Beneficiary will furnish to the Seller all data and information in the Warranty Beneficiary's possession reasonably relevant to the Interface Problem and will reasonably cooperate with the Seller in the conduct of the Seller's investigations and such tests as may be required.
At the conclusion of such investigation, the Seller will promptly advise the Warranty Beneficiary in writing of the Seller's opinion as to the cause or causes of the Interface Problem and the Seller's recommendations as to corrective action.
12.4.2 | Seller's Responsibility |
If the Seller determines that the Interface Problem is primarily attributable to the design of a Warranted Part, the Seller will, if so requested by the Warranty Beneficiary and pursuant to the terms and conditions of Clause 12.1, correct the design of such Warranted Part to the extent of the Seller's obligation as defined in Clause 12.1.
12.4.3 | Supplier's Responsibility |
If the Seller determines that the Interface Problem is primarily attributable to the design of any Supplier Part, the Seller will, if so requested by the Warranty Beneficiary, reasonably assist the Warranty Beneficiary in processing any warranty claim the Warranty Beneficiary may have against the Supplier. The Seller will also take whatever reasonable action is permitted by its contracts with such Supplier in an effort to obtain a correction of the Interface Problem acceptable to the Warranty Beneficiary. If the Supplier fails within a reasonable period of time to take appropriate action on the Seller's recommendation as to the necessary corrective action and the Warranty Beneficiary submits to the Seller, within a reasonable period of time, proof of such failure, then the Seller will take action in accordance with the provisions of Clause 12.3
12.4.4 | Joint Responsibility |
If the Seller determines that the Interface Problem is attributable partially to the design of a Warranted Part and partially to the design of any Supplier Part, the Seller will, if so requested by the Warranty Beneficiary, seek a solution to the Interface Problem through cooperative efforts of the Seller and any Supplier involved.
The Seller will promptly advise the Warranty Beneficiary of such corrective action as may be proposed by the Seller and any such Supplier. Such proposal will be consistent with any then existing obligations of the Seller hereunder and of any such Supplier towards the Warranty Beneficiary. Such corrective action, unless reasonably rejected by the Warranty Beneficiary, will constitute full satisfaction of any claim the Warranty Beneficiary may have against either the Seller or any such Supplier with respect to such Interface Problem.
12.4.5 | General |
12.4.5.1 | All requests under this Clause 12.4 will be directed to both the Seller and the affected Supplier. |
