Flight Control System. The course will have a duration of
approximately five (5) days and will be conducted in New Iberia,
Louisiana. Should any of the requested course topics require initial
courseware preparation there may be additional lead time or cost

with a proposal detailing the cost or schedule impact. Each class
session will have a maximum of ten students. Each mechanic must have
background experience in one or more of the following categories:
certified (by Federal Aviation Administration [“FAA”] or by an
equivalent airworthiness authority) airframe mechanic with one (1)
year practical experience as a rated aircraft mechanic; one (1) year
experience as an active mechanic on a commercial or military
helicopter; or three (3) years general experience as a commercial or
military aircraft mechanic. Travel costs to and from the training are
at the expense of the Buyer.

X. ADDITIONAL PRODUCT SUPPORT REQUIREMENTS

Article X is replaced by the following Paragraphs in its entirety:

	1.	 	*
	 
	2.	 	Turbomeca Support By the Hour Program (SBH®) — Sikorsky shall
provide reasonable assistance to Buyer in support of its
discussions with Turbomeca for the purposes of extension of
Buyer’s current (SBH®) Program for 2S1 engines and for the
inclusion of 2S2 engines within that program. It shall be Buyer’s
obligation to complete any required definitive agreements.
	 
	3.	 	Spares Consignment — Sikorsky, through HSI, shall provide to Buyer a
consigned inventory to be held at Buyers facility. The actual
composition of this inventory will be determined by Buyer, from an
initial list of components at Buyers discretion, based on the number
of and utilization of aircraft in the Buyer’s 76 fleet. Buyer will
select the components and quantity levels of each from the previously
mentioned listing. A definitive consignment agreement between OLOG and
H.S.I. will contain all relevant contractual terms and conditions and
will be signed by both parties. The agreement may be adjusted
periodically by the parties to add or subtract “required” and/or “high
usage” items.

	 	a.	 	The Consignment Parts will be stored at Customer’s facility for use by
Customer to support the OLOG fleet. However, at Buyer’s discretion the
consigned parts may be used by Service Provider to support other
operators. The reallocation of Consigned Parts to other operators will
only be required in the event that the other operator is in an AOG
condition. Consignor will provide, with due dispatch, a replacement
Consigned Part at no transportation cost to Consignee. Once the
Consigned Part has been released by Consignee for reallocation,
Consignor shall bear all subsequent costs of transportation and risk
of loss for the Consigned Part. Consignee shall not be charged a
Consigned Parts fee for the part so reallocated from the time it
leaves the Consignee’s facility to the date the replacement part is
received by the Consignee. The consignment will be invoiced on a
monthly basis at a rate of * per annum based on the value of
the consignment at the current CPL selling price of the Consigned
parts in inventory. Repair and Overhaul of items used within the
consignment spares package will be performed by H.S.I under the
aircraft warranty policy or will be sent to H.S.I. for repair at
OLOG’s expense if the aircraft is out of its warranty period.
	 
	 	b.	 	H.S.I. will provide a consignment package(s) of helicopter airframe
spare parts, accessories and components to OLOG at their operating
locations, as required. The consignment period will be nominally two
(2) years to three (3) years duration at each location and none will
extend past OLOG’s initial customer contract or new aircraft warranty
period, whichever is longer
	 
	 	c.	 	*

 

 

4. Third Party Warehouse Status

Will commit to working with OLOG to develop a logistics support and supply
chain plan which integrates Buyers consignment inventory, initial C+, C++
provisioning and overseas warehousing requirements to improve logistic support
capability which OLOG requires to sustain successful operations. Sikorsky will
focus its efforts to support OLOG’s operations in Brazil, Nigeria, the US Gulf
Coast and East and Central Asia. Customer understands that such a plan will
require a committed electronic information infrastructure between the parties
Customer also understands that such a plan may require further investment on
the part of both parties and that the final structure of such a plan must be
mutually agreed to by both parties.

5. Consignment
of High Warranty Drivers

In order to demonstrate our commitment to the S-76C+ and  S-76C++, Sikorsky through its wholly owned subsidiary HSI shall
establish a * consignment of components determined to be High Warranty Drivers. This * consignment
will be located at the customers designated consignment warehouses, which will be mutually determined by
OLOG and Sikorsky. A High Warranty Driver shall be defined as a component that experiences a high rate of removal for cause within the OLOG S-76+ and S-76C++ fleet
within a * interval during the warranty period (removals will be measured by
HSI based on orders placed within a * calendar, starting period is with the
execution of this Agreement. A high rate of removal is defined as a component, excluding
components list below, that causes more than * of aircraft AOG downtime more
than * period or a component that Sikorsky and OLOG mutually agree
is a reliability issue. Once the reliability of a component has been proven so that the
component no longer meets High Warranty Driver criteria, the Buyer’s shall within 30
days return the component to HSI or have the component converted to the Spare Consignment as defined a paragraph 3 above. Gearboxes, Main Rotor Blades, Tail Rotor Blades, Primary Servos
 and Starter Generators are excluded from this program. Sikorsky will always support the product and if any component is proven to have a reliability problem Sikorsky will continue to work with OLOG on an appropriate
logistics plan until the reliability issue is resolved.

6. Access to HSI Inventory Systems

Sikorsky/HSI will establish electronic access to HSI’s inventory system and
weekly scheduled teleconferences with Buyer’s US and UK representatives, to
provide Buyer with a more detailed position with regard to spare component
order status, fill rates, reliability and technical issues, Warranty Drivers,
service bulletins, issues related to Sikorsky sub-contractors.

XI AIRCRAFT AND SPARE PART TRADE INS

Article XI is replaced by the following Paragraphs in its entirety:

Sikorsky shall accept previously purchased Sikorsky helicopters from the Buyer
as trade-in credit toward new helicopter purchases in accordance with the
procedure below. Sikorsky shall accept trade-in aircraft at a rate no greater
than one trade-in per new aircraft delivery. Such trade-in aircraft must be
presented at the time of payment for Completion Services or Baseline Helicopter
delivery should Buyer not purchase completion services. All aircraft trade-ins
must be in airworthy condition and have a valid FAA Certificate of
Airworthiness or have a current Export Certificate of Airworthiness acceptable
to the FAA.

event,

to the terms and conditions of Sikorsky’s standard Used Helicopter
