W I T N E S S E T H:

 WHEREAS, Lessor is the lessee of, and has possession, command and control of a Bombardier Inc. BD-700-1A11
aircraft, manufacturer’s serial number 9155, current United States registration N717LS (to be changed to N717MK) (the “Aircraft”); and 

WHEREAS, Lessor employs or engages a fully-qualified and credentialed flight crew to operate the Aircraft; and 

WHEREAS, Lessor has agreed to lease the Aircraft, with flight crew, to Lessee on a “time sharing” basis as
defined in Section 91.501(c)(1) of the Federal Aviation Regulations (“FAR”) upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth herein; 

NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing premises and the mutual covenants and agreements set forth herein and
for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, Lessor and Lessee, intending to be legally bound, hereby agree as follows: 

 

	ARTICLE I	 TIME SHARING; TERM AND TERMINATION 



A. Subject to Aircraft availability, commencing on the date of execution and delivery of this Agreement, Lessor agrees to lease the Aircraft to
Lessee pursuant to the provisions of FAR Section 91.501(c)(1) and to provide a fully-qualified flight crew for all operations hereunder, including positioning flights. Each such trip shall be predicated upon Aircraft and crew availability, and
will be scheduled in advance between Lessee and Lessor, at mutually-agreeable times. The parties acknowledge and agree that this Agreement did not result in any way from any direct or indirect advertising, holding out or soliciting on the part of
Lessor or any person purportedly acting on behalf of Lessor. Lessor and Lessee intend that the lease of the Aircraft effected by this Agreement shall be treated as a “wet lease” pursuant to which Lessor provides transportation services to
Lessee in accordance with FAR Section 91.501(b)(6) and Section 91.501(c)(1). 
 B. The term of this Agreement (the
“Term”) shall commence on the date hereof and shall continue until terminated by either party upon written notice to the other party. 

C. For each flight conducted under this Agreement, including positioning and other deadhead legs flown in connection with an occupied leg
hereunder, Lessee shall pay Lessor the following actual expenses of such flight, the total of which is not to exceed the maximum amount legally payable by Lessee to Lessor for such flight under FAR Section 91.50l(d)(l)-(10): 

 

	 	(a)	 fuel, oil, lubricants, and other additives; 


  

	 	(b)	 travel expenses of crew, including food, lodging and ground transportation; 



 

	 	(c)	 hangar and tie-down costs away from the Aircraft’s base of operation; 



 

	 	(d)	 additional insurance obtained for the specific flight at the request of Lessee; 



 

	 	(e)	 landing fees, airport taxes and similar assessments; 


  

	 	(f)	 customs, foreign permits and similar fees directly related to the flight; 



 

	 	(g)	 in-flight food and beverages; 


  

	 	(h)	 passenger ground transportation; 


  

	 	(i)	 flight planning and weather contract services; and 


  

	 	(j)	 an additional charge equal to 100% of the expenses listed in clause (a) above. 



D. Lessor shall pay all expenses relating to the operation of the Aircraft under this Agreement when incurred. As soon as possible after the
end of each calendar month during the Term of this Agreement, Lessor shall provide to Lessee an invoice showing all use of the Aircraft by 







 
Lessee under this Agreement during that month and a complete accounting detailing all amounts payable by Lessee pursuant to Article I(C) for that month, including all expenses paid or incurred by
Lessor for which reimbursement is sought. This invoice shall be paid within 30 days of receipt. 
  

	ARTICLE II	 OPERATIONAL CONTROL. 



Lessor and Lessee intend and agree that at all times during the Term of this Agreement, Lessor shall have complete and
exclusive operational control over the Aircraft, its flight crew and maintenance, and complete and exclusive possession, command and control of the Aircraft. Lessor shall have complete and exclusive responsibility for scheduling, dispatching and
flight following of the Aircraft on all flights conducted under this Agreement, which responsibility includes the sole and exclusive right over initiating, conducting and terminating such flights. 

Lessee shall have no responsibility for scheduling, dispatching or flight following on any flight conducted under this Agreement, nor any
right over initiating, conducting or terminating any such flight. Nothing in this Agreement is intended or shall be construed so as to convey to Lessee any operational control over, or possession, command and control of, the Aircraft, all of which
are expressly retained by Lessor. 
  

	ARTICLE III	 SCHEDULING OF AIRCRAFT. 



A. To the extent possible, Lessor shall accommodate Lessee’s request for the scheduling of flights pursuant to this Agreement, contingent
upon Aircraft and crew availability. 
 B. Lessee will provide Lessor with requests for flight times and proposed flight schedules as far in
advance of any given flight as possible. Requests for flight time shall be in a form (whether oral or written) mutually agreed by the parties. In addition to proposed schedules and flight times, Lessee shall provide Lessor with the following
information for each proposed flight prior to scheduled departure: (i) proposed departure point; (ii) destination; (iii) date and time of flight; (iv) the number of anticipated passengers; (v) the nature and extent of
luggage to be carried; (vi) the date and time of a return flight, if any; and (vii) any other pertinent information concerning the proposed flight that Lessor or the flight crew may request. 

C. Subject to Aircraft and crew availability, Lessor shall use its good faith efforts, consistent with Lessor’s approved policies, in
order to accommodate the needs of Lessee, to avoid conflicts in scheduling, and to enable Lessee to enjoy the benefits of this Agreement; however, Lessee acknowledges and agrees that notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary,
(i) Lessor shall have sole and exclusive final authority over the scheduling of the Aircraft; and (ii) the needs of Lessor for the Aircraft shall take precedence over Lessee’s rights and Lessor’s obligations under this Agreement.

 D. Although every good faith effort shall be made to avoid its occurrence, any flight scheduled under this Agreement is subject to
cancellation by either party without incurring liability to the other party. In the event that cancellation is necessary, the canceling party shall provide the maximum notice practicable. Cancellations shall be minimized to the maximum extent
possible. 
  

	ARTICLE IV	 CREW. 



A. Lessor shall ensure that for each flight conducted under this Agreement, the Aircraft will be under the command of a flight crew which is
duly licensed and rated by the U.S. Federal Aviation Administration and which has appropriate currency in landing (day and night), instrument flight requirements as well as current medical certification. All flight crewmembers shall be included on
any insurance policies that Lessor is required to maintain hereunder. 
 B. In accordance with applicable Federal Aviation Regulations,
Lessor’s qualified flight crew provided under this Agreement will exercise all of its duties and responsibilities in regard to the safety of each flight conducted hereunder. Lessor’s flight crew, in its sole discretion, may terminate any
flight, refuse to commence any flight, or take other action that in the judgment of the pilot-in-command is necessitated by consideration of safety. No such action of the pilot-in-command shall create or support any liability for loss, injury,
damage or delay to either party or any other person. The parties further agree that neither party shall be liable for delay or failure when such failure is caused by government regulation or authority, mechanical difficulty, war, civil commotion,
strikes or labor disputes, weather conditions, or acts of God. 
  

	ARTICLE V	 CONDITION OF THE AIRCRAFT. 



Lessor shall ensure that for each flight conducted under this Agreement, the Aircraft has been properly inspected and
maintained in accordance with the requirements of the U.S. Federal Aviation Administration; and all aircraft equipment and systems are in correct operating condition. Lessor shall be solely responsible for securing all maintenance, preventive
maintenance and required inspections of 







 
the Aircraft, and shall take such requirements into account in scheduling the Aircraft. No period of maintenance, preventive maintenance or inspection shall be delayed or postponed for the
purpose of scheduling the Aircraft hereunder, unless such maintenance or inspection can be safely conducted at a later time in compliance with all applicable laws and regulations, and within the sound discretion of the pilot-in-command. 

 

	ARTICLE VI	 TITLE AND RISK OF LOSS. 



Title and risk of loss for the Aircraft shall remain exclusively with Lessor during the entire Term of this Agreement. 

 

	ARTICLE VII	 INSURANCE. 



A. During the entire Term of this Agreement, Lessor shall maintain in full force and effect all risk hull insurance covering the full value of
the Aircraft. Lessor’s hull insurer shall waive any right of subrogation it may have against Lessee under such policy with respect to loss, damage or destruction of the Aircraft during any flight under this Agreement. Additionally, Lessor will
maintain and have in force its standard aircraft liability insurance policy during the entire Term of the Agreement with a minimum combined single limit of Three Hundred Million U.S. Dollars (US $300,000,000.00). 

B. Such insurance shall (i) name Lessee and his employees, agents, licensees, servants and guests as additional insured;
(ii) provide for 30 days written notice to Lessee by such insurer of cancellation, change, non-renewal or reduction cancellation or material change in coverage (ten days in the case of non-payment of premiums, and seven days, or such shorter
period then prevailing in the business aviation insurance market, in the case of war risk and allied perils coverage); (iii) cover Lessor’s indemnity obligations under Article X hereof; and (iv) permit the use of the Aircraft by
Lessor for compensation or hire; and (v) be primary insurance, not subject to any co-insurance clause and without right of contribution from any other insurance. 

C. Lessor shall use reasonable commercial efforts to provide such additional insurance coverage for specific flights under this Agreement, if
any, as Lessee may request in writing. Lessee also acknowledges that any trips scheduled to the European Union may require Lessor to purchase additional insurance to comply with local regulations. The cost of all additional flight-specific insurance
shall be borne by Lessee as set forth in Article I(C)(d). 
 D. Lessor shall ensure that worker’s compensation insurance with
all-states coverage is provided for the Aircraft’s crew and maintenance personnel. 
 E. At Lessee’s request, Lessor shall deliver
certificates or binders of insurance to Lessee with respect to the insurance required or permitted to be provided hereunder not later than the first flight of the Aircraft under this Agreement and upon the renewal date of each policy. 

F. Lessee and Lessor shall not do, nor omit to do, nor permit to be done, any act in breach of any of the required insurance whereby any of
such insurance might be, in whole or in part, invalidated, unenforceable, revoked, suspended, adversely amended or allowed to lapse, so as to maintain such insurance in full force and effect at all times. In no event shall Lessor suffer or permit
the Aircraft to be used or operated under this Agreement without such insurance being fully in effect. 
  

	ARTICLE VIII	 LESSOR’S REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES. 



Lessor represents and warrants that: 

A. It shall conduct all operations under this Agreement in compliance with (i) all applicable provisions of all governmental authorities

FOR ANY INCIDENTAL, CONSEQUENTIAL OR SPECIAL DAMAGES, HOWEVER ARISING.

Lessee represents and warrants that:

B. Lessee shall not attempt to convey, mortgage, assign, lease or in any way alienate the Aircraft or create any kind of lien or security interest involving
the Aircraft or do anything or take any action that might mature into such a lien.
