and Acquisitions to be included as part of the original Profit Incentive Bonus.

                     AMERICA WEST AIRLINES, INC. [...***...]

In order for the Buyer to accelerate the entry into revenue service of the A318
Aircraft, the Buyer has asked the Seller to make a proposal that considers
including certain of Buyer's Engineering Orders ("E.O.s") in the A318 Aircraft
prior to delivery. No later than twelve (12) months prior to the first A318
Aircraft delivery and following an agreement between the Buyer and the Seller on
the list of E.O.s, the Seller will provide the Buyer with a commercial offer on
a per A318 Aircraft basis for the incorporation of certain Engineering Orders
into the A318 Aircraft, [...***...].

Such proposal will consider the Seller and the Manufacturer's industrial,
commercial and certification constraints. The Buyer will (i) within thirty (30)
days of the receipt of the Seller's offer, execute all relevant RFCs and SCNs
corresponding to the Engineering Orders selected to be incorporated in the A318
Aircraft prior to delivery and (ii) comply with all requirements of Clause 18 of
the Agreement in the event certain equipment is provided by the Buyer as BFE.

                       AMERICA WEST AIRLINES [...***...]

In order for the Buyer to accelerate the entry into revenue service of the A319
Additional Aircraft, the Buyer has asked the Seller to make a proposal that
considers including certain of Buyer's Engineering Orders ("EO") in the Aircraft
prior to delivery. Within leadtimes compatible with the delivery of the first
A319 Additional Aircraft and following an agreement between the Buyer and the
Seller regarding the list of EO, the Seller will provide the Buyer with a
commercial offer on a per A319 Additional Aircraft basis for the incorporation
of EO into the A319 Additional Aircraft, [...***...]. Such proposal will
consider the Seller and the Manufacturer's industrial, commercial and
certification constraints. The Buyer shall (i) within 30 days of receipt of the
Seller's offer, execute all relevant RFCs and SCNs corresponding to the EO
selected to be incorporated in the A319 Additional Aircraft prior to delivery
and (ii) comply with all requirements of Clause 18 of the Agreement in the event
certain equipments are provided by the Buyer as BFE.

     America West Airlines -- [...***...]

In order for the Buyer to accelerate the entry into revenue service of the A320
Additional Aircraft, the Buyer has asked the Seller to make a proposal that
considers including certain of Buyer's Engineering Orders ("EO") in the Aircraft
prior to delivery. No later than 12 months prior to the delivery of the second
A320 Additional Aircraft and following an agreement between the Buyer and the
Seller regarding the list of EO applicable to the A320 Additional Aircraft, the
Seller will provide the Buyer with a commercial offer on a per 320 Additional
Aircraft basis for the incorporation of EO into the A320 Additional Aircraft,
[...***...]. Such proposal will consider the Seller and the Manufacturer's
industrial, commercial and certification constraints. The Buyer shall (i) within
30 days of receipt of the Seller's offer, execute all relevant RFCs and SCNs
corresponding to the EO selected to be incorporated in the A320 Additional
Aircraft prior to delivery and (ii) comply with all requirements of Clause 18 of
the Agreement in the event certain equipments are provided by the Buyer as BFE.

5.       GENERAL PROVISIONS

5.1      Substitution of Indexes

         In the event that:

         (i)      the U.S. Department of Labor substantially revises the
                  methodology of calculation of any of the indexes referred to
                  hereabove, or

         (ii)     the U.S. Department of Labor discontinues, either temporarily
                  or permanently, any of the indexes referred to hereabove, or

         (iii)    the data samples used to calculate any of the indexes referred
                  to hereabove are substantially changed,

         the Seller will select a substitute index.

         Such substitute index will reflect as closely as possible the actual
         variations of the wages or of the material costs, as the case may be,
         used in the calculation of the original index.

         As a result of this selection of a substitute index, the Seller will
         make an appropriate adjustment to its price revision formula, allowing
         to combine the successive utilization of the original index and of the
         substitute index.

5.2      Final Index Values

         The Revised Base Price at the date of A318 Aircraft delivery will be
         final and will not be subject to further adjustments of any kind and
         for any reason to the applicable indexes as published at the date of
         A318 Aircraft delivery.

         place is five (5) or more the preceding decimal place will be raised to
         the next higher figure.

         After final computation, Pn will be rounded to the next whole number
         (0.5 or more rounded to l).

5.       GENERAL PROVISIONS

5.1      The revised V2533-A5 Reference Price at delivery of the A321 Additional
         Aircraft will be the final price and will not be subject to further
         adjustments in the indexes.

5.2      If no final index value is available for any of the applicable months,
         the published preliminary figures will be the basis on which the

5.3      If the US Department of Labor substantially revises the methodology of
         calculation of the indexes referred to in this Exhibit E or
         discontinues any of these indexes, the Seller will, in agreement with
         International Aero Engines, apply a substitute for the revised or
         discontinued index, such substitute index to lead in application to the
         same adjustment result, insofar as possible, as would have been
         achieved by continuing the use of the original index as it may have
         fluctuated had it not been revised or discontinued. Appropriate
         revision of the formula will be made to accomplish this result.

5.4      Should the above escalation provisions become null and void by action
         of the US Government, the V2533-A5 Reference Price will be adjusted to
         reflect increases in the cost of labor, material and fuel which have
         occurred from the period represented by the applicable V2533-A5
         Reference Price indexes to the fourth month prior to the scheduled
         delivery of the A321 Additional Aircraft.

5.5      The revised V2533-A5 Reference Price at delivery of the A321 Additional
         Aircraft in no event will be less than the V2533-A5 Reference Price
         defined in Paragraph 1 of this Exhibit E.

                                LICENSE FOR USE
                  OF THE PERFORMANCE ENGINEERING PROGRAMS (PEP)

1.       GRANT

         The Seller grants to the Buyer the right to use the Performance
         Engineering Programs (PEP) in machine readable form on a single
         computer network during the term of this license agreement (the
         "License Agreement").

         Use of the PEP in readable form shall be limited to one (1) copy.
         However, the Buyer may make duplicate copies, provided that they are
         either contained in the same network as the original copy, or produced
         for checkpoint and restart purposes or made with the consent of the
         Seller for a specific need.

2.       MERGING

         The PEP may be used and adapted in machine readable form for the
         purpose of merging it into other program material of the Buyer, but, on
         termination of this License Agreement, the Buyer shall remove the PEP
         from the other program material with which it has been merged.

         The Buyer agrees to reproduce the copyright and other notices as they
         appear on or within the original media on any copies that the Buyer
         makes of the PEP.

3.       PERSONAL LICENSE

         The above described license is personal to the Buyer and its computer
         service contractors, nontransferable and nonexclusive.

4.       INSTALLATION

         It is the Buyer's responsibility to install the PEP and to perform any
         mergings and checks. The Seller shall, however, assist the Buyer's
         operations engineers in the initial phase following the delivery of the
         PEP until such personnel reach the familiarization level required to
         make inputs and correlate outputs.

5.       PROPRIETARY RIGHTS AND NONDISCLOSURE

5.1      The PEP and the copyright and other proprietary rights of whatever
         nature in the PEP are and shall remain with the Seller. The PEP and its
         contents are designated as confidential.

                                    ExhH-17
<PAGE>   81
5.2      The Buyer undertakes not to disclose the PEP, parts thereof or its
         contents to any third party except the Buyer's computer service
         provider, without the prior written consent of the Seller. Insofar as
         it is necessary to disclose aspects of the PEP to employees, such
         disclosure is permitted only for the purpose for which the PEP is
         supplied and only to the employee who needs to know the same.

6.       CONDITIONS OF USE

6.1      The Seller does not warrant that the PEP shall contain no errors.
         However, should the PEP be found to contain any error at delivery of
         the PEP, the Buyer shall notify the Seller promptly thereof and the
         Seller shall take all proper steps to correct the same at its own
         expense.

6.2      The Buyer shall ensure that the PEP is correctly used in appropriate
         machines as indicated in the Performance Programs Manual (PPM) and that
         staff are properly trained to use the same, to trace and correct
         running faults, to restart and recover after fault and to operate
         suitable checks for accuracy of input and output.

6.3      It is understood that the PPM is the user's guide of the PEP and that
         the Buyer shall undertake to use the PEP in accordance with the PPM.

6.4      The PEP is supplied under the express condition that the Seller shall
         have no liability in contract or in tort arising from or in connection
         with the Buyer's use of or inability to use the PEP.

7.       DURATION

         Subject to the Buyer's compliance with the terms of this License
         Agreement, the rights under this License Agreement shall be granted to
         the Buyer for as long as the Buyer operates an Aircraft to which the
         PEP refers.

                                                                       EXHIBIT H

                            LICENSE FOR USE OF CD-ROM

1.       GRANT

         The Seller grants the Buyer the right to use the Aircraft Documentation
         Retrieval System (ADRES) and/or the Computer Assisted Aircraft
         Troubleshooting (CAATS) on CD-ROM for the term of this License. Use of
         ADRES and/or CAATS shall be limited to the number of copies agreed
         between the parties.

         For clarification, it is hereby stated that the Power Plant IPC is not
         part of the electronic IPC and is only available on other media (paper
         of film).

2.       TERM

         The rights under the License shall be granted from the date of first
         delivery of ADRES and/or CAATS to the end of the current year. The
         grant shall be renewed automatically at the beginning of each calendar
         year for another year, unless either the Buyer or the Seller gives
         written notice to the other party three (3) months prior to the end of
         the License of its intention to terminate the grant. Within thirty (30)
         days of termination, the Buyer shall return ADRES and/or CAATS and all
         copies thereof to the Seller.

3.       REVISION SERVICE

         The Seller shall provide revision service for ADRES and/or CAATS during
         the term. The revision service shall be based on the revision service
         which the Seller provides for the documentation in paper or film
         format.

         ADRES and/or CAATS CD-ROM shall be revised concurrently with the paper
         and film deliveries. However, temporary revisions are not currently
         provided in digital data format and are only available in paper format.

4.       PERSONAL LICENSE

         The License is personal to the Buyer, non-transferable and
         non-exclusive. The Buyer shall not permit any third party to use ADRES
         and/or CAATS, nor shall it transfer or sub-license ADRES and/or CAATS
         to any third party, without prior written consent from the Seller.

5.       INSTALLATION

         The Seller shall provide the list of hardware on which ADRES and/or
         CAATS shall be installed. The Buyer shall be responsible for procuring
         such hardware and installing ADRES and/or CAATS.

6.       PROPRIETARY RIGHTS

         ADRES and/or CAATS are proprietary to the Seller and the copyright and
         all other proprietary rights in ADRES and/or CAATS are and shall remain
         the property of the Seller.

7.       COPYRIGHT INDEMNITY

         The Seller shall defend and indemnify the Buyer against any claim that
         the normal use of ADRES and/or CAATS infringes the intellectual
         property rights of any third party, provided that the Buyer:

7.1      immediately notifies the Seller of any such claim;

7.2      makes no admission or settlement of any claim;

7.3      allows the Seller to have sole control of all negotiations for its
         settlement;

7.4      gives the Seller all reasonable assistance in connection therewith.

8.       CONFIDENTIALITY

         ADRES and/or CAATS and their contents are designated as confidential.
         The Buyer undertakes not to disclose ADRES and/or CAATS or parts
         thereof to any third party without the prior written consent of the
         Seller. In so far as it is necessary to disclose aspects of ADRES
         and/or CAATS to the employees, such disclosure is permitted solely for
         the purpose for which ADRES and/or CAATS are supplied and only to those
         employees who need to know the same.

9.       CONDITIONS OF USE

         The Buyer shall not make any copies of ADRES and/or CAATS, except for
         installation purposes.

9.1      The Seller does not warrant that the operation of ADRES and/or CAATS
         shall be error free. In the event of an error occurring within thirty
         (30) days of delivery, the sole and exclusive liability of the Seller
         shall be, at its expense, to correct ADRES and/or CAATS in the
         following revision.

9.3      THE WARRANTIES, OBLIGATIONS AND LIABILITIES OF THE SELLER AND REMEDIES
         OF THE BUYER SET FORTH IN THIS LICENSE ARE EXCLUSIVE AND IN
         SUBSTITUTION FOR, AND THE BUYER HEREBY WAIVES, RELEASES AND RENOUNCES
         ALL OTHER WARRANTIES, OBLIGATIONS AND LIABILITIES OF THE SELLER AND
         OTHER RIGHTS, CLAIMS OR REMEDIES OF THE BUYER AGAINST THE SELLER,
         EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, ARISING BY LAW OR OTHERWISE, WITH RESPECT TO ANY

         training and other assistance may be provided upon the Buyer's request
         on conditions to be mutually agreed.

11.      REPLACEMENT OF PRODUCT

         For clarification purposes it is hereby expressly stated that ADRES
         and/or CAATS shall be offered for a limited time period, not exceeding
         the term of this License. In the event that the Seller should offer a
         replacement product, the conditions for using such product shall be
         subject to a separate agreement.

Re:      AIRCRAFT ORDER FLEXIBILITY

Dear Ladies and Gentlemen:

         In connection with the execution of Amendment No. 3 to the Airbus
A319/A320 Purchase Agreement dated as of September 12, 1997, (the "Agreement")
between AVSA S.A.R.L., (the "Seller") and AMERICA WEST AIRLINES, INC., (the
"Buyer"), the Buyer and the Seller have agreed to set forth in this Letter
Agreement No. 2 (the "Letter Agreement") certain additional terms and conditions
regarding the sale of the Additional Aircraft and the sale of Growth Aircraft
and Purchase Option Aircraft as defined under the Agreement. Capitalized terms
used herein and not otherwise defined in this Letter Agreement will have the
meanings assigned thereto in the Agreement as amended by this Amendment. The
terms "herein," "hereof" and "hereunder" and words of similar import refer to
this Letter Agreement.

         Both parties agree that this Letter Agreement will constitute an
integral, nonseverable part of the Amendment, except that if the Agreement or
the Amendment and this Letter Agreement have specific provisions that are
inconsistent, the specific provisions contained in this Letter Agreement will
govern.

1.       TERMINATION OF LETTER AGREEMENT N0. 2 TO THE AGREEMENT

         Any rights the parties may have had with respect to Growth Aircraft and
         to the Purchase Option Aircraft under the Agreement are hereby
         terminated and neither the Buyer nor the Seller will have any further
         rights or obligations from the date hereof with respect to either the
         Growth Aircraft or the Purchase Option Aircraft under the Agreement.
         Letter Agreement No. 2 to the Agreement dated September 12, 1997 is
         hereby terminated in its entirety and is of no further force and
         effect.
<PAGE>   87
         It is agreed and understood by the Buyer and the Seller that the
         [...***...] Growth Aircraft confirmed as firm A320 Aircraft [...***...]
         pursuant to Amendment No. 2 to the Agreement dated December 9, 1998
         will not be affected by this provision.

2.       OPTION AIRCRAFT

2.1      The Seller will provide the Buyer with the right to purchase up to
         twenty-five (25) Option Aircraft to be delivered, if firmly exercised
         by the Buyer as set forth herein, according to the following delivery
         schedule expressed in Quarterly Batches (the "Option Schedule").

2.2      Option Fee

         At Amendment execution, the Buyer will pay an option fee of US $
         [...***...] (Dollars -- [...***...]) (the "Option Fee") for each Option
         Aircraft. Each Option Fee is non-refundable only if the Buyer does not
         later firmly exercise the corresponding Option Aircraft. In the event
         the Buyer firmly exercises an Option Aircraft as set forth in
         Subparagraph 2.3 hereafter, the corresponding Option Fee will be
         applied (without interest) against the Option Aircraft Predelivery
         Payment as set out in Subparagraph 2.3.4 of Letter Agreement No. 4 to
         the Amendment at the time of Option Aircraft exercise.

2.3      Option Aircraft Exercise [...***...]

2.3.3    Concurrently with each Option [...***...] Exercise the Buyer will make,

         Predelivery Payment as set forth in [...***...] of Amended and Restated
         Letter Agreement No. 4 to the Agreement, as amended, upon which each
         Option Aircraft exercised will become an Additional Firm Aircraft. In
         the event that the Seller does not receive [...***...] the Option
         [...***...] Exercise and the Predelivery Payment referred to in
         Subparagraph 2.3.3 herein with respect to an [...***...] Aircraft (as
         may have been converted pursuant to the Substitution Right exercise) on
         or before the Exercise Date (or such later date as may be established
         pursuant to the provisions of Subparagraph 2.3.2 (ii) above), then the
         Buyer's rights with respect to the corresponding Option Aircraft will
         expire and the parties will have no further obligations to one another
         with respect to such Option Aircraft.

3.       PURCHASE RIGHT AIRCRAFT

3.1      The Seller also hereby grants the Buyer the right to purchase up to
         twenty-five (25) Purchase Right Aircraft for delivery dates [...***...]

3.2      The Purchase Right Aircraft will remain without reserved delivery
         quarters by the Seller [...***...] until the Buyer requests a delivery
         date by written notice to the Seller, such notice also specifying the
         type of Purchase Right Aircraft the Buyer is considering to firmly
         purchase. The Seller will then provide in writing within [...***...],
         subject to its industrial and commercial constraints at the time, a
         delivery month and year, [...***...] until written confirmation of
         acceptance from the Buyer and concurrent payment of a Purchase Right
         Predelivery Payment as set out in [...***...] of Letter Agreement No. 4
         to the Amendment (upon which the Purchase Right Aircraft will be an
         Additional Firm Aircraft under the Agreement).

         runway surface with no runway strength limitations, no obstacles, zero
         wind, atmosphere according to ISA, except as otherwise noted, and the
         use of speed brakes, flaps, landing gear and engines in the conditions
         liable to provide the best results will be assumed and as followed by
         FAR's.

5.2.1    When establishing take-off and second segment performance no air will
         be bled from the engines for cabin air conditioning or anti-icing.

5.3      When establishing the approach and landing climb performance cabin air
         conditioning will be operative on normal mode but no air will be bled
         from the engines for anti-icing.

5.4      The en-route one engine inoperative climb performance will be
         established with the amount of engine air bleed associated with the
         maximum cabin altitude as specified in Section 21-30.32 of the A318
         Standard Specification and an average ventilation rate not less than
         the amount defined in the A318 Standard Specification, but no air will
         be bled from the engines for anti-icing. All performance data are based
         on normal air conditioning mode.

7.1      [...***...]

7.2      The intent of this Letter Agreement is to provide specified benefits to
         the Buyer as a result of the failure of the Aircraft to comply with the
         [...***...] stipulated in the Guarantee. It is not the intent, however,
         to duplicate benefits provided to the Buyer by the Seller under any
         other applicable guarantee as a result of the same failure. Therefore,
         notwithstanding the terms and conditions of this Guarantee, if the
         terms of this Guarantee should make duplicate benefits available to the
         Buyer, the Buyer may elect to receive benefits under this Guarantee or
         any other guarantee but not both.
