PERMIT TO FOREIGN AIR CARRIER

(as amended)

---------------------------------------------------------

1263343 ALBERTA INC. d/b/a Enerjet

A Foreign Air Carrier of Canada 

is authorized, subject to the following provisions, the provisions of Title 49 of the U.S. Code, 

and the orders, rules, and regulations of the Department of Transportation, to engage in:

Scheduled foreign air transportation of persons, property, and mail from points behind 

Canada, via Canada and intermediate points, to a point or points in the United States, 

and beyond;

Scheduled foreign air transportation of cargo between any point or points in the United 

States and any other point or points; and

Charter foreign air transportation of persons, property, and mail between any point or 

points in Canada and any point or points in the United States, and between any point or 

points in the United States and any point or points in a third country or countries 

provided that, except with respect to cargo charters, such service constitutes part of a 

continuous operation, with or without a change of aircraft, that includes service to 

Canada for the purpose of carrying local traffic between Canada and the United States.

The holder shall also be authorized to engage in other charter trips in foreign air transportation, 

subject to the terms, conditions, and limitations of the Department’s regulations governing 

charters.

This permit and the exercise of the privileges granted in it shall be subject to the terms, 

conditions and limitations in both the order issuing this permit and the attachment to this order, 

and to all applicable provisions of any treaty, convention or agreement affecting international air 

transportation now in effect, or that may become effective during the period this permit remains 

in effect, to which the United States and the holder’s homeland are or shall become parties.
This permit shall be effective on June 10, 2013. Unless otherwise terminated at an earlier date 

pursuant to the terms of any applicable treaty, convention or agreement, this permit shall 

terminate (1) upon the dissolution or liquidation of the holder to whom it was issued; (2) upon 

the effective date of any treaty, convention, or agreement or amendment, which shall have the 

effect of eliminating the bilateral right for the service authorized by this permit from the service 

which may be operated by airlines designated by the Government of Canada (or, if the right is 

partially eliminated, then the authority of this permit shall terminate in like part); (3) upon the 

effective date of any permit granted by the Department to any other carrier designated by the 

Government of Canada in lieu of the holder; or (4) upon the termination or expiration of the 

applicable air services agreement between the United States and Canada. However, clause 

(4) of this paragraph shall not apply if prior to such termination or expiration, the foreign air 

transportation authorized herein becomes the subject of another treaty, convention or agreement 

to which the United States and Canada become parties.

The Department of Transportation has executed this permit and affixed its seal on April 8, 2013.

Foreign Air Carrier Permit Conditions

In the conduct of the operations authorized, the foreign carrier applicant shall:

(1) Not conduct any operations unless it holds a currently effective authorization from its homeland for such 

operations, and it has filed a copy of such authorization with the Department;

Security Administration, and with all applicable U.S. Government requirements concerning security, 

including, but not limited to, 14 CFR Parts 129, 91, and 36 and 49 CFR Part 1546 or 1550, as applicable. 

To assure compliance with all applicable U.S. Government requirements concerning security, the holder 

shall, before commencing any new service (including charter flights) from a foreign airport that would be 

the holder’s last point of departure for the United States, contact its International Industry Representative 

(IIR) (formerly referred to as International Principal Security Inspector) to advise the IIR of its plans and to 

find out whether the Transportation Security Administration has determined that security is adequate to 

allow such airport(s) to be served;

(3) Comply with the requirements for minimum insurance coverage contained in 14 CFR Part 205, and, prior to 

the commencement of any operations under this authority, file evidence of such coverage, in the form of a 

completed OST Form 6411, with the Federal Aviation Administration’s Program Management Branch 

(AFS-260), Flight Standards Service (any changes to, or termination of, insurance also shall be filed with 

that office);

equivalent to Annex 6 of the Chicago Convention;

(5) Conform to the airworthiness and airman competency requirements of its Government for international air 

services;

(6) Except as specifically exempted or otherwise provided for in a Department Order, comply with the 

requirements of 14 CFR Part 203, concerning waiver of Warsaw Convention liability limits and defenses;

(7) Agree that operations under this authority constitute a waiver of sovereign immunity, for the purposes of 28 

U.S.C. 1605(a), but only with respect to those actions or proceedings instituted against it in any court or 

other tribunal in the United States that are: (a) based on its operations in international air transportation that, 

according to the contract of carriage, include a point in the United States as a point of origin, point of 

destination, or agreed stopping place, or for which the contract of carriage was purchased in the United 

States; or (b) based on a claim under any international agreement or treaty cognizable in any court or other 

tribunal of the United States. In this condition, the term "international air transportation" means 

"international transportation" as defined by the Warsaw Convention, except that all States shall be 

considered to be High Contracting Parties for the purpose of this definition;

(8) Except as specifically authorized by the Department, originate or terminate all flights to/from the United 

States in its homeland;

(9) Comply with the requirements of 14 CFR Part 217, concerning the reporting of scheduled, nonscheduled, 

and charter data;

(10) If charter operations are authorized, except as otherwise provided in the applicable aviation agreement, 

comply with the Department's rules governing charters (including 14 CFR Parts 212 and 380); and

(11) Comply with such other reasonable terms, conditions, and limitations required by the public interest as 

may be prescribed by the Department, with all applicable orders or regulations of other U.S. agencies and
