NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing, and the other agreements contained herein, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, the parties, intending to be legally bound hereby, agree as follows:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;1. **Provision of Aircraft; Term.** Company agrees to provide the Aircraft to and operate the Aircraft for Lessee on a non-exclusive basis from time to time as mutually agreed between the parties pursuant to the provisions of FAR 91.501(b)(6), 91.501(c)(1) and 91.501(d), and to provide a fully qualified flight crew for all operations conducted under this Agreement. This Agreement shall be effective on the date set forth above and shall remain in effect until terminated by either party upon ten (10) business days' prior written notice to the other.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;2. **Reimbursement of Expenses.** Lessee shall pay to Company for each flight conducted under this Agreement a reimbursement not to exceed the sum of the expenses set forth in subparagraphs (a)-(j) below in respect of the specific flight or flights to which such charge applies (including related deadhead flights, if applicable):

Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event shall reimbursement for the foregoing exceed the actual operating costs of such flight.

For the avoidance of doubt, Lessee shall be responsible to pay over to Company all state and federal taxes and other government fees and charges applicable to each flight conducted under this Agreement; Company, in turn, shall timely remit such taxes, fees and charges to the respective authorities. The parties acknowledge that the federal air transportation excise tax imposed under section 4261 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, may apply to some or all of expense reimbursements provided under this Agreement.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;3. **Invoicing and Payment.** Company will pay all expenses related to the operation of the Aircraft when incurred, and will provide an invoice to Lessee for the reimbursement determined in accordance with paragraph 2 above as promptly as practicable following each flight.

All flight operations under this Agreement shall be conducted under Part 91 of the FAR.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;7. **Authority of Pilot in Command and Flight Crew.** For each flight conducted under this Agreement, the Aircraft will be operated only by a qualified flight crew.

Lessee specifically agrees that the pilot in command may terminate any flight, refuse to commence any flight, or take other action which in his or her considered judgment is necessitated by considerations of safety or

------

security. No such action of the pilot in command shall create or support any liability for loss, injury, damage or delay to Lessee or any other person.
